Cultivating Immortality: Beginning with Blessings from the Immortals

"Grandpa, you're finally awake! It's me, Tingting," Wu Tingting said anxiously.

Chen Yi stepped forward to secretly observe Wu Qingshan's expression. The man's face was ashen, and his eyes held a faint gray-blue bloodline.

This situation clearly indicates that the poisoning has progressed to a deep stage, making it extremely difficult to eradicate.

Wu Qingshan turned his head with difficulty to look at Wu Tingting and Chen Yi, a strange light flashing in his eyes, and said weakly:

"I...I'm back?"

Wu Tingting grabbed Wu Qingshan's hands and asked:

"Grandpa, how are you feeling? Brother Chen is here to save you."

Upon hearing this, Wu Qingshan looked at Chen Yi, a hint of gratitude appearing on his face. After a moment's thought, he spoke:

"Tingting, I'm a little hungry. Could you make me some fish porridge?"

A hint of joy appeared on Wu Tingting's face, and she immediately turned around to cook fish porridge for Wu Qingshan.

After watching his granddaughter leave the room, Wu Qingshan sighed and turned to Chen Yi, saying:

"Young man Chen, thank you so much this time. I never expected you to come to my rescue."

Chen Yi leaned down and sat beside him, telling him to speak as little as possible to avoid wasting his mental energy.

Wu Qingshan forced a smile and said weakly:

"I know my body best; this time it's probably going to be tough."

Chen Yi frowned slightly. Although he was not a doctor, he had some knowledge of medicine from studying alchemy.

Wu Qingshan is too old and has been deeply poisoned; he is now showing signs of decline.

"Mr. Wu, it's all up to human effort."

"Now is not the time to give up. How can you cure the poison of the Sea Yaksha?" Chen Yi encouraged.

Wu Qingshan sighed and told Chen Yi the antidote for the Sea Yaksha poison.

It turns out that the one who tied the knot must untie it; the only way to detoxify is to use the sea yaksha's eyes, scales, and tail fin.

Only by boiling these items into a medicinal soup can the poison of the sea monster be neutralized.

"Young man Chen, you've probably used up precious pills, medicinal herbs, and spiritual plants to help me stabilize the poison."

"Let's not waste any more time now, I'm afraid I'm already at my limit," Wu Qingshan said sadly.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi sighed inwardly, realizing that Wu Qingshan's health was not as bad as he had described.

But if the poison cannot be neutralized, his life will likely only last about a month.

Chen Yi didn't want to see Old Wu die, and he wanted to save him as long as there was a chance.

After all, Elder Wu was a good friend of Elder Su, and he had helped him obtain the Mysterious Water Pearl, Jade Dew Essence, and many precious spirit fish.

Chen Yi is not a heartless person and cannot truly stand by and watch someone die.

"Old Wu, as long as we find the sea yakshas, ​​we can obtain these materials from them."

"Is there any hope for you?" Chen Yi asked in a deep voice.

A glimmer of hope flashed in Wu Qingshan's eyes, but he immediately sighed:

"Never mind, those sea monsters are too strong."

"You can't swim, so going there would be tantamount to suicide. I can't let you be in danger any longer," Wu Qingshan said slowly.

After saying this, Wu Qingshan felt extremely weak.

Chen Yi immediately fed him several pills and channeled his spiritual energy to help him neutralize the medicinal effects.

Just then, Wu Tingting walked in carrying a pot of fish porridge.

"Perfect timing, Grandpa, Brother Chen, let's eat together," Wu Tingting said with a smile.

Seeing this, Chen Yi decided not to continue talking to Wu Qingshan, and the three of them temporarily gathered together to drink fish porridge.

The originally delicious fish porridge tasted like chewing wax to the three of them.

After everyone finished the pot of fish porridge, Chen Yi told Wu Qingshan to rest first, and then left the room with Wu Tingting.

As soon as she left the bedroom, Wu Tingting immediately knelt down before Chen Yi.

"Brother Chen, I beg you."

"Only you can save my grandfather. I don't want him to die," Wu Tingting said, suppressing her sobs.

Chen Yi immediately stepped forward and helped him up, saying:

"Your grandfather has been poisoned by the Sea Demon. Tell me the details of what happened first."

After hearing Chen Yi's words, Wu Tingting managed to calm herself down and immediately began to tell him the details of what had happened.

Chen Yi learned from him exactly where Wu Qingshan and his companion had been attacked by the sea monster. Furthermore, they were attacked because sea monsters would periodically ravage the area.

Generally, cultivators of the Heavenly Spirit Sect would unite with surrounding markets, families, and smaller sects to exterminate the sea monsters.

The open seas have been calm for two or three decades, but now there are signs that they are about to rage again.

Chen Yi's expression was somewhat solemn; the Tianling Sect was not at peace at present.

Internally, there are evil cultivators causing chaos; externally, there are monstrous beasts from the outer seas.

"Brother Chen, if we can find those sea monsters again, will my grandfather be saved?" Wu Tingting asked anxiously.

Chen Yi pondered for a moment and responded:

"If we act quickly enough, we should be able to save your grandfather's life."

Upon hearing this, Wu Tingting's face lit up with joy, and she immediately stepped forward and grabbed Chen Yi's arm.

"Brother Chen, I beg you. I'll do anything you ask if you can save my grandfather." Wu Tingting's voice grew softer and softer as she spoke.

Chen Yi sighed inwardly, and after much deliberation, he agreed to her request.

"I will help stabilize the toxins in Old Wu's body; hopefully, it will be in time."

Upon hearing Chen Yi's words, Wu Tingting's face lit up with ecstatic joy.

She turned and left behind the things she had prepared for the sea voyage, and Chen Yi also needed to make his own preparations. They were heading towards the boundary between the East Sea Islands and the open sea, and a slight misstep could mean certain death at the hands of a monster.

Chen Yi had accumulated a lot of spirit stones, and now he naturally needed to make full preparations.

He immediately took the storage bag and headed straight for the Treasure Pavilion, where the old manager personally entertained Chen Yi.

"Old shopkeeper, to be honest, I want to go to the East Sea Islands."

"I wonder what kind of high-quality magic boats or magical artifacts you have here? I also need water-repelling beads and lightning talismans, and the like," Chen Yi said.

Upon hearing this, the old shopkeeper's eyes flashed with surprise, but he did not take Chen Yi to find the treasure.

"Young Master Chen, you want to go to the East China Sea, right? But things aren't peaceful there right now."

"Many fishermen have been injured or even killed recently, so don't take the risk," the old shopkeeper advised.

Chen Yi looked somewhat helpless and said:

"To be honest, old shopkeeper."

"I have to go this time, please help me this once."

Upon hearing this, the old shopkeeper had no choice but to lead Chen Yi to the private room and give him various rare items.

"This magical vessel is called the Black Sail Wind-Riding Vessel, and its speed is comparable to that of other flying magical artifacts of the same rank."

"These lightning beads contain purple lightning, and their power is comparable to the attack of a Foundation Establishment cultivator in the early stage."

"And these talismans..."

As Chen Yi requested, the old shopkeeper placed all the treasures in front of him.

Chen Yi scanned them one by one and spent a large amount of spirit stones to buy them all.

The old shopkeeper then took out a brocade box, handed it to Chen Yi, and said:

"This is the Sea-Breaking Dragon Shuttle, which allows for rapid movement in the sea and is used to save one's life."

"However, to activate it with your current cultivation level, you need essence blood."

Chen Yi immediately opened the brocade box and carefully examined the Sea-Breaking Dragon Shuttle.

It is light blue overall, seemingly made of special bones, with a smooth shape like a streamlined shuttle, and shimmering light flowing inside.

"How many spirit stones? I'll buy it."
