Cultivating Immortality: Beginning with Blessings from the Immortals

Lin Chang introduced Chen Yi and his companion to the crowd, and the array masters nodded or greeted them.

Chen Yi returned the greeting with clasped hands, while secretly observing the cultivators present.

Most of these cultivators were around his age, and their cultivation levels were all at the eighth or ninth level of the Qi Refining stage, with a few being Foundation Establishment stage cultivators.

"Alright, you two."

"Since you're new to the Suspended Pivot Society, let Brother Wu and Miss Mu show you around," Lin Chang said with a smile.

Wu Yifeng and Mu Yuanrong readily agreed and led them forward.

"Junior brother, your backlash has healed, hasn't it?" Wu Yifeng asked with concern.

Chen Yi immediately responded:

"Senior brother, I've fully recovered. But your arm..."

He remembered that Wu Yifeng's arm was injured by Sun Yu's flames. Through reading Sun Yu's jade slip, Chen Yi learned that injuries caused by white flames were extremely difficult to heal.

Wu Yifeng chuckled, revealing his arm. The wound had completely healed, and the skin was perfectly smooth. He then said:

"Don't worry, I can handle this minor injury."

Seeing this, Chen Yi breathed a sigh of relief. Wu Yifeng seemed to have an extraordinary background, as he was able to heal the burns in such a short time.

Wu Yifeng and Mu Yuanrong led them to talk with some familiar array masters.

These array masters are all geniuses in the market, some with extraordinary backgrounds and some with extremely high talent.

Chen Yi had only recently become a formation master, and now that he had the opportunity to exchange ideas with his peers, he naturally wouldn't miss it.

At this moment, more than twenty array masters arrived at the courtyard one after another.

Chen Yi noticed that some cultivators were starting to trade array items, including array plates and array flags.

"Senior brother, I wonder which of them has the Fire Essence Jade?" Chen Yi asked in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, Wu Yifeng looked surprised and said:

"Fire Essence Jade, you actually need this rare and precious material?!"

Chen Yi nodded emphatically, indicating that he urgently needed the Fire Essence Jade.

Wu Yifeng was very popular in the Suspended Pivot Society, so he secretly asked these array masters if anyone had Fire Essence Jade or knew anything about it.

A moment later, he returned to Chen Yi's side and said:

"Junior brother, Fire Essence Jade is extremely rare; no cultivator has obtained it recently."

"Why don't I come back and ask someone to inquire within the Heavenly Spirit Sect?"

A hint of disappointment appeared on Chen Yi's face, but he still thanked Wu Yifeng for his help.

At the Suspended Pivot Gathering, everyone met many array masters, and Chen Yi gained even more. By exchanging ideas with his peers, he learned how to draw array patterns faster and more steadily, and he also witnessed many unique arrays.

Wu Yifeng took out his wine gourd, drank a few sips, and said somewhat drunkenly:

"I live in Tai'anfang, and you are all guests. I'll treat you to dinner today."

Chen Yi readily agreed, and Deng Liangyu and Mu Yuanrong echoed his sentiments.

Wu Yifeng laughed and led the three of them outside. Lin Jian, seeing this, said goodbye to everyone and handed Chen Yi a jade slip for communication.

The group left the Suspended Pivot Society, and it was already close to dusk.

Wu Yifeng led Chen Yi and the others toward the center of the market. As the largest market outside the Tianling Sect, Tai'an Market naturally attracted many cultivators.

A moment later, the group arrived at the entrance of a street.

Chen Yi had just looked up when Mu Yuanrong beside him angrily shouted:

"You bastard, you actually brought us here. Do you think Brother Chen and Brother Deng are like you?"

Wu Yifeng didn't care at all, took a sip of wine and said:

"What's wrong? How much is it here?"

"Good wine, good food, beautiful girls, and the opportunity to listen to music in a brothel—what could be more delightful?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi immediately realized what was going on. After all, he was also a spoiled brat in his previous life, so he naturally knew what kind of place this was.

"Senior brother, isn't this a bit..." Chen Yi asked.

Wu Yifeng turned around, put his arm around Chen Yi's shoulder, and laughed, "I'm just taking you to broaden your horizons, and I won't do anything out of line."

He led a few people to a luxurious pavilion called Jinqian, where two maids immediately came up to greet them, although the maids' clothing was somewhat revealing.

"Young Master Wu, you've brought friends again this time?" the maid asked with a smile.

Two maids led Wu Yifeng and the others into the pavilion and led them to a private room.

The private room was extremely spacious, and soon several young women entered the room and began playing the pipa and dancing.

Although Chen Yi verbally refused, his actions betrayed his words.

After all, he has been cultivating diligently ever since he transmigrated, so it's good for him to relax a bit now.

Mu Yuanrong shook her head helplessly, and could only drink her tea and eat pastries and dried fruit. Deng Liangyu was also a little uncomfortable, and could only chat idly with Mu Yuanrong.

For some reason, Mu Yuanrong always felt that she and Deng Liangyu had a very congenial conversation.

Chen Yi and the others listened to music and drank wine in the private room, enjoying a rare moment of relaxation.

Half an hour later, the waiter pushed open the door and entered, placing a jade slip in front of Wu Yifeng and saying:

"Sir, someone has entrusted me to give you this communication jade slip."

Wu Yifeng looked puzzled, picked up the communication jade slip, and channeled spiritual energy into it. The next moment, a line of text appeared on the communication jade slip.

"Wu Yifeng, I have news about the Fire Essence Jade, Sun Huo."

Upon seeing this, Chen Yi's expression shifted, and he immediately moved closer. At the same time, he realized that someone had been secretly watching them.

Upon seeing the message on the jade slip, Wu Yifeng couldn't help but snort coldly.

"Hmph, still the same old story, always doing things in secret."

Chen Yi asked:

"Senior brother, do you know this person? He has news about the Fire Essence Jade!"

Wu Yifeng nodded slightly and said:

"This person is the son of an elder of the Heavenly Spirit Sect. He is an inner disciple of the Heavenly Spirit Sect and has just broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, just like me."

"He specializes in fire-attribute techniques and spells, so naturally he pays special attention to fire-attribute rare and precious materials."

Wu Yifeng entered a message into the communication jade slip, instructing Sun Huo to come directly here to meet him.

A moment later, the door to the private room was pushed open.

A young man with an ordinary appearance, dressed in a bright red brocade robe, walked in.

Chen Yi looked up and slapped the red-robed youth in the face. The other man was about the same age as them, and although he looked ordinary, he always gave Chen Yi a sense of danger.

This person was also a member of the Suspended Pivot Society; at the time, they had only exchanged greetings.

"Brother Sun, what a rare guest!" Wu Yifeng laughed loudly.

Sun Huo nodded slightly, his eyes subtly sweeping over everyone present, and then immediately clasped his hands in a salute to them.

Chen Yi clasped his hands in a fist and bowed, and said:

"I've heard that you possess news of the Fire Essence Jade. Is that true...?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Huo looked at Chen Yi, then glanced at Wu Yifeng, and replied:

"Brother Chen, I am about 70 or 80 percent confident about this matter."

"Fire Essence Jade is inherently difficult to obtain; I only learned about it by chance some time ago."

Wu Yifeng nodded slightly upon hearing this, then turned and whispered:

"Junior brother, I know Sun Huo very well."

"Given his personality, he wouldn't do something he wasn't sure of, so this matter should be fine."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi's face lit up with joy. He hadn't expected that things would take such a turn for the better, and now he had received news about the Fire Essence Jade.

"Brother Sun, would you mind if we could discuss this in more detail?" Chen Yi said.
