Cultivating Immortality: Beginning with Blessings from the Immortals

Chen Yi's face was ashen; he feared that Wei Wufeng had already been possessed.

After their last trip to Wanling Mountain, Chen Yi was deeply impressed by how Sun Yu, a pseudo-Core Formation cultivator, had silently taken over Yu Hualong's body.

Moreover, Venerable Jin Guang has already stepped into the Golden Core realm with one foot in it, and has probably already possessed Wei Wufeng's body.

What worries him even more is Wei Xueqing; if Wei Wufeng is possessed, her situation will be the most dangerous.

"Brother Deng, I would like to ask you to investigate this matter again."

"If you need spirit stones, I can give them to you," Chen Yi said, taking out a storage bag from his pocket.

Deng Liangyu shook his head and did not take the storage bag.

"Brother Chen, there's no need to go to such lengths."

"I only asked someone to secretly gather information. If there is any more information, I will tell you myself," Deng Liangyu said.

Chen Yi nodded emphatically, feeling a sense of unease.

He never imagined that the treasure of the Golden Light Master's cave would cause him to lose a close friend with whom he could entrust his life.

Chen Yi exhaled a breath of stale air, feeling uneasy.

The world of cultivation is extremely dangerous; a slight misstep can lead to death and the annihilation of one's cultivation.

Seeing this, Deng Liangyu offered words of comfort, and the two agreed to meet at Qingyu Teahouse three days later before bidding each other farewell and leaving.

Chen Yi returned to his courtyard and continued his studies in alchemy.

Based on his previous success, he successfully refined two batches of Qi Condensation Pills, but failed twice.

The refining of a first-order Qi Condensation Pill is not very difficult; ordinary alchemists can control the success rate to 50%.

However, Chen Yi believed that as long as he activated the blessing of Laozi and diligently refined the pills, the success rate would greatly increase.

Next, Chen Yi tried to refine other pills.

However, since it was their first time refining pills, the success rate was not very high.

Three days later, Chen Yi, dressed neatly and fully prepared, left the courtyard and headed straight for Qingyu Teahouse.

A moment later, Chen Yi appeared in a private room.

He ordered a pot of tea and a few dishes of snacks from the waiter and continued to wait for Deng Liangyu and Wu Yifeng.

Chen Yi waited for more than ten minutes before the waiter brought Deng Liangyu in.

"Brother Deng, please sit down. My senior brother hasn't arrived yet," Chen Yi said.

Deng Liangyu nodded slightly and sat down to chat with Chen Yi.

After waiting for more than an hour, Wu Yifeng finally walked in, half-drunk and half-awake.

"Junior brother, we apologize for being a little late," Wu Yifeng said, leading Mu Yuanrong in.

The latter looked disgusted, clearly having some reservations about Wu Yifeng.

"Senior brother, Miss Mu. This is my good friend, Deng Liangyu." Chen Yi introduced Deng Liangyu to the two of them.

Mu Yuanrong nodded slightly and greeted him upon seeing this.

Wu Yifeng looked Deng Liangyu up and down, a strange expression appearing on his face, before speaking:

"So you're the young master of the Hundred Treasures Pavilion. I heard that the patriarch broke through to the Golden Core stage a few years ago. Congratulations!"

Upon hearing this, Deng Liangyu bowed and said:

"Thank you, fellow Daoist. My father was simply fortunate enough to condense a Golden Core."

Chen Yi was surprised to find that Wu Yifeng had actually broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, and couldn't help but congratulate him.

Wu Yifeng waved his hand and said:

"After the last bloody battle, my cultivation level became unstable, and I only managed to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage by sheer luck."

After the four got to know each other, Wu Yifeng led the three away from Lingxifang and headed straight for Tai'anfang.

Chen Yi remembered that the Tianlingbao Market was held in Tai'an Ward, since Tai'an Ward was the largest market outside the Tianling Sect.

After leaving the market, the group immediately mounted their flying magical artifacts and sped forward.

Half a day later, Chen Yi and the others arrived at the city gate of Tai'anfang.

Chen Yi, Wu Yifeng, and the others jumped off the flying magical artifact. After identifying themselves to the guards, they entered Tai'an Ward.

Wu Yifeng led Chen Yi and the other two forward, passing through the central area and arriving at a relatively remote area in the western part of the market.

As the group approached a spacious courtyard, Chen Yi immediately sensed an array barrier surrounding it.

Wu Yifeng took out the jade pendant from his pocket and immediately infused it with spiritual energy.

The jade pendant flew out gracefully and hovered near the courtyard gate.

In an instant, a protective array appeared, enveloping the entire courtyard.

The jade pendant emitted a glowing light, triggering an array that caused an entrance to appear out of thin air.

Wu Yifeng led the three through the door and discovered that there was a hidden world inside.

Chen Yi and Deng Liangyu were both visiting this place for the first time, and they couldn't help but secretly look around.

Wu Yifeng and Mu Yuanrong had already joined the Suspended Pivot Society, and they led Chen Yi and the other two forward.

Chen Yi discovered that there were seven or eight guards watching over the front yard, which had a pavilion, garden, and fountain, making it a very pleasant place.

Wu Yifeng stepped forward and spoke with the guards, one of whom turned and went into the inner courtyard.

"Please wait here for a moment. This is your first time at the Suspended Pivot Society, so you will need to go through some procedures," Wu Yifeng said.

Chen Yi nodded slightly and noticed that the inner courtyard was also shrouded in an array barrier.

A moment later, a tall, handsome young man followed the guards out.

"Brother Wu, Miss Mu, it's been a long time since we last met," the young man said first.

Wu Yifeng laughed heartily, stepped forward, patted the young man on the shoulder, and said:

"Brother Lin, your cultivation has improved again. Are you almost at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage?"

Lin Chang smiled and said:

"I broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage less than two years ago, so I won't break through that quickly."

"Brother Wu, you have a metal-type heavenly spiritual root. If you focused on cultivation, you would have broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage long ago."

Chen Yi, standing beside him, was secretly shocked. He hadn't expected Wu Yifeng to have such high talent, with a metal-type celestial spiritual root.

In the world of cultivation, only those who possess a unique spiritual root can be called celestial spiritual roots.

Cultivators with Heavenly Spiritual Roots cultivate at an extremely high speed, generally reaching the Golden Core stage. They are the pride of various sects and aristocratic families.

Wu Yifeng, unfazed, stated bluntly:

"Cultivation is nothing compared to the joy of drinking. What's the point of your simple life?"

Lin Chang smiled helplessly, turned his gaze to Chen Yi and Deng Liangyu, and said:

"Brother Wu, who are these two...?"

Upon hearing Lin Chang's words, Wu Yifeng immediately introduced the two men to him.

Lin Chang stepped forward, cupped his hands in a fist salute to the two men, and said:

"So it's Brother Chen, Brother Deng."

"You two are so young, yet you are already array masters. I truly admire you."

Chen Yi and Deng Liangyu responded with a bow in return.

"Lin Chang, they are absolutely qualified to join the Suspended Pivot Society," Wu Yifeng chimed in from the side.

Lin Chang smiled and said:

"Brother Chen is your junior brother, so his talent in formations must be very high."

"Brother Deng is also the young master of the Hundred Treasures Pavilion, and a Foundation Establishment cultivator."

"Both of you are geniuses. How could I, Lin, refuse to let you join the Suspended Pivot Society?"

Lin Chang took out two jade pendants from his storage bag and explained to the two that the jade pendants could be used to ignore the array restrictions of the Suspended Pivot Society.

As Lin Chang spoke, he led the group forward. The jade pendant activated the array's restrictions, and the group successfully entered the inner courtyard.

The inner courtyard gate opened, and everyone filed in.

Chen Yi felt a blur before his eyes, and when he looked up, he discovered that the inner courtyard was a hidden paradise.

The inner courtyard is extremely large, and more than a dozen array masters have already gathered there.

When they saw Lin Chang and the others enter, they couldn't help but turn their gazes towards them.
