Cultivating Immortality: Beginning with Blessings from the Immortals

Upon hearing this, Wu Qingshan looked surprised, but his face did not show any blame. He spoke up.

"I see, so someone wants to use us to lure you out..."

A look of guilt appeared on Chen Yi's face. If it weren't for the two of them, they wouldn't have suffered this unexpected disaster, and they would probably have to leave this mansion now.

Seeing Chen Yi's expression, Wu Qingshan couldn't help but smile.

He slowly straightened his upper body and leaned against the wall, offering words of comfort:

"Young Chen, I'm decades older than you. I was impetuous when I was young, and I've certainly been through some things."

"You are not at fault in this matter, so there is no need for you to feel too guilty."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi sighed inwardly and nodded slightly, saying:

"Don't worry, Mr. Wu, I will definitely help you detoxify."

Wu Qingshan nodded slightly, telling Chen Yi to go back and rest for a few days before coming back. After helping Wu Qingshan stabilize his injuries, Chen Yi returned to his own courtyard.

He set up the Xuan Guang Geng Jin Array in the courtyard and had spirit insects lurk in the room to guard it before lying down on the bed and falling into a deep sleep.

I don't know how much time passed.

Chen Yi slowly opened her eyes, got up, and then washed and dressed herself properly.

"Phew, I didn't expect to sleep for a whole day and night." He stretched his body and found that his ribs had basically healed.

However, the injuries from the backlash of his divine consciousness did not improve much, but the throbbing pain in his mind lessened considerably.

Chen Yi took some pills to treat the backlash from his divine consciousness.

The injury caused by backlash of consciousness is different from other injuries. Its essence is that it damages the brain and primordial spirit, which is extremely difficult to heal. Moreover, there are very few pills, herbs and spiritual plants that can heal backlash of consciousness.

He took out several sea monster corpses from his storage bag.

These were all killed by Zhao Deyan and his men and tied up on the beach; they had been dead for less than half a day. Now, they were placed in a special storage bag and had not lost much of their vitality.

To neutralize the sea monster's poison, one needs its eyes, blood, and scales.

Chen Yi immediately began dissecting the sea yaksha's corpse, taking down all the items needed for the antidote, and then began making the antidote.

With the blessing of Laozi and his experience in making elixirs, he successfully made the antidote in less than half a day.

Chen Yi immediately went next door to help Wu Qingshan detoxify.

Wu Qingshan had been poisoned by the sea monster for several days, and the poison was already penetrating his bone marrow. Chen Yi began to detoxify Wu Qingshan using oral medication, topical acupuncture, and other methods.

Before long, silver needles were inserted into all the acupoints on Wu Qingshan's body.

Chen Yi manipulated the antidote liquid to seep into his body through the silver needles, and at the same time fed the liquid to him.

Wu Tingting looked worried, but she couldn't help.

Wu Qingshan's complexion gradually improved, and some light blue viscous fluid mixed with impurities seeped out from his pores.

Half a day passed in the blink of an eye.

Chen Yi has completely expelled the toxins from Wu Qingshan's body, but he needs to rest because he has been poisoned for many days.

"Phew, you'll need to rest for another month before your body fully recovers," Chen Yi said.

Although Wu Qingshan was physically weak, his spirits had recovered considerably, and he spoke:

"Thanks, Chen. Otherwise..."

Chen Yi smiled calmly, gave Wu Qingshan a few instructions, and then said with a serious expression:

"Mr. Wu, Tingting, there's something I must tell you first. Someone is secretly plotting against me."

"I am deeply sorry that you have been implicated in this. This place is probably no longer safe..."

Upon hearing this, Wu Qingshan immediately realized what was happening and said:

"I've already asked Tingting to sell this little courtyard. After this incident, we want to go back to our hometown for a visit."

"I'm afraid I won't be returning to the market anytime soon. We'll meet again someday."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi felt a pang of disappointment, for it was because of him that the two of them had to leave the market and return to the secular world.

A look of reluctance and sadness flashed across Wu Tingting's face.

But the grandfather and grandson, having frequented various markets and neighborhoods for years, naturally knew when to advance and when to retreat. Their so-called return to their hometown was more a pretext for avoiding trouble.

Chen Yi took out a storage bag and handed it to Wu Qingshan and the other man.

"This is a small token of my appreciation; I hope you will accept it."

Wu Qingshan and Wu Tingting resolutely refused to accept the storage bag, but Chen Yi's firm stance left him with no choice but to accept it.

It contains some spirit stones, elixirs for cultivation, and medicinal herbs and spiritual plants.

After saying goodbye to the two, Chen Yi returned to his own courtyard. After tidying up briefly, he went to the Treasure Pavilion.

……

"You want a pill that can prevent backlash from affecting one's spiritual consciousness?" The old shopkeeper looked surprised.

Chen Yi nodded emphatically and said:

"That's right. I wonder if the Treasure Pavilion has any such pills, medicinal herbs, or spiritual plants."

After pondering for a moment, the old shopkeeper went to the back to search for it himself.

A moment later, he took out a porcelain bottle and handed it to Chen Yi:

"Currently, there is only one type of pill, called the Nourishing Spirit Pill. However, its effect on healing injuries caused by the backlash of the divine consciousness is limited; it can only nourish your mind and primordial spirit."

A hint of helplessness flashed across Chen Yi's face, but he had no choice but to spend spirit stones to buy the Nourishing Spirit Pill.

He asked the old shopkeeper where he could find pills, herbs, and spiritual plants to treat the backlash of divine consciousness. After thinking for a moment, the old shopkeeper said that he was afraid only the Heavenly Spirit Sect had such things.

"The Heavenly Spirit Sect? It seems I'll have to ask my senior brother." Chen Yi thought to himself.

He happened to want to move to a different courtyard, so he could ask Master Zhou and his senior brother Wu Yifeng for help.

Chen Yi searched the front and back yards thoroughly, taking everything he could carry. As he left the courtyard, he turned and glanced back, filled with emotion.

Now in a dangerous situation, I have no choice but to leave the courtyard temporarily.

Before leaving, Chen Yi made a special trip to the neighboring courtyard to say goodbye to Wu Qingshan and the other man.

"The green hills remain unchanged, and the clear waters flow on forever. Mr. Wu, Tingting, we will meet again someday." Chen Yi said, clasping his hands in a respectful gesture.

Wu Qingshan's complexion has improved a lot, and he is now able to get out of bed.

He looked at Chen Yi, a hint of approval on his face, and said:

"Young Chen, although we haven't spent much time together, I believe you will definitely become a powerful figure in the future."

"I hope you have a smooth journey ahead and a limitless future."

Upon hearing Wu Qingshan's blessing, Chen Yi immediately clasped his hands in a respectful greeting. Wu Tingting hesitated, wanting to say countless words, but in the end only uttered a few farewell remarks.

Chen Yi turned and left, heading straight for the location of the outer sect of the Heavenly Spirit Sect in the market.

Wu Qingshan turned to look at his granddaughter and found that Wu Tingting was staring blankly at Chen Yi's back.

He sighed inwardly and said softly:

"Tingting, let's get ready to leave this place. He and we are ultimately from different worlds."

Wu Tingting hesitated, her expression showing even greater disappointment.

……

At this moment, the Donghai Islands.

Yang Jinfeng and several Yang family guards were searching a small island. After confirming that there was no trace of Chen Yi and the others, they gathered together on the beach.

"Big brother, shouldn't we go back?"

"There's basically no chance of finding them now, so we might as well go back..." one of the Yang family guards said.

Yang Jinfeng's face was grim; he naturally knew in his heart that the mission had failed. Their mistake was underestimating Chen Yi's strength, especially since he also had a Foundation Establishment cultivator and a second-tier demonic beast assisting him.

"Let's go back first and let the young master decide on the next course of action," Yang Jinfeng said coldly.
