Becoming an Immortal Starts with a Hundredfold Increase

Li Lang dared not be careless.

He reached out and wiped the blood from the corner of his lips, then quickly sat cross-legged to suppress the toxins.

It took a full half hour to suppress the toxins in his body.

He opened his eyes, and a very soft cough escaped his throat.

The discomfort of surging blood and qi was still spreading, but I had already calmed my mind.

Li Lang's heart sank.

That was close.

I was careless again this time.

Normally, when the amplification is activated, it is automatically deactivated, leaving room to suppress the toxins.

This time, I was pushed to my limit, and I didn't expect the toxins to suddenly erupt, almost catching me off guard.

He brought up the control panel.

When he saw the lifespan section, his pupils contracted sharply.

Lifespan: 20 days (due to severe poisoning)

This time, the poisoning flared up, reducing his lifespan to only twenty days.

A chill ran through Li Lang's heart, but there was no panic in his eyes; on the contrary, he was extremely calm.

It seems that using amplification to create array plates and selling excess spirit stones to exchange for detoxification pills is not a viable option.

We must find another way to detoxify.

Thinking about this...

A fierce glint flashed in Li Lang's eyes. "No matter what, I must carve out a way to survive within twenty days."

He took a deep breath, suppressing his emotions.

After a few breaths, he regained his calm expression, as still as a deep well.

Li Lang slowly stood up, straightened his robes, picked up the array plate, and stepped out of the compartment.

At this moment, everyone was still busy with their own things, and no one noticed.

He went straight to Song Yan's side room.

Inside a side room, Song Yan was looking down at account books.

Hearing footsteps, Song Yan looked up and saw Li Lang standing before him with his hands at his sides, a smile playing on his lips, continuing to look down at the account books. "How was your first time making an array plate?"

In his view, Li Lang must be disheartened after two consecutive failures.

"Reporting to Young Master."

Li Lang bowed slightly and said with a wry smile, "I only knew that the path of formations was difficult before, but I have truly felt it after trying it today."

Song Yan nodded. "The path of array formations cannot be mastered overnight; it must be taken step by step."

He looked up at Li Lang.

Just as he was about to say that ordinary disciples would need to study for several days to be confident in refining it, his eye twitched involuntarily as he spoke.

Li Lang stepped forward, holding the Spirit Gathering Array Plate in both hands, and gently placed it on the table. His voice carried a hint of shame as he said, "It took five jade plates to succeed. I barely pass."

Song Yan's gaze fell on the array plate on the table, his pupils contracted slightly, and the indifference on his face instantly froze.

His lips twitched involuntarily.

It was previously said that five jade plates could be used to create an array plate, but that was after one had become proficient.

Those who are new to array formations need to try several times, or even more than ten times, to succeed.

Song Yan's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, concealing the surprise in his eyes. His tone was calm. "Hmm, luck... not bad. Keep it up."

"Yes!" Li Lang bowed and lowered his eyes.

"The battle formation will end at the end of the 5-7 PM and the beginning of the 7-9 PM, so there's still more than half an hour left." Song Yan waved his hand: "You can arrange your time as you like, just remember to come back on time."

"Thank you, young master." Li Lang turned and left the side room.

After he walked out of the main hall.

Song Yan quickly picked up the array plate on the table and examined it carefully.

If it weren't for a few unfamiliar points, he would have even thought that Li Lang was pretending to be weak while actually being strong.

He glanced out the window as Li Lang stepped into the front of the shop, muttering to himself, "Was it really just luck?"

at the same time.

The front of the shop was bustling with people.

Hong Bo had just seen off a rogue cultivator when he turned around and saw Li Lang lift the curtain and enter.

"Hehe, does the son-in-law have any instructions?" Uncle Hong asked with a smile.

Li Lang shook his head. "Just taking a stroll. Uncle Hong, you're busy."

Uncle Hong nodded and returned to the counter.

Li Lang walked slowly, his gaze calmly sweeping over the array plates displayed on the shelves, his expression indifferent.

When I saw the Spirit Gathering Array Plate, I noticed the price tag on it, but my mind was racing with calculations.

Seven low-grade spirit stones.

If we follow the previous plan and accumulate two pills each day, it will only take four days to buy the Detoxification Pill.

Unexpectedly, after the amplification, the poison took effect after just one use, reducing his lifespan by ten days.

Now I only have twenty days left.

He really didn't dare to gamble.

The most urgent task is to deal with these two array plates.

Otherwise, once they return to the Qiao residence, they will have nowhere to hide.

With that thought in mind, Li Lang bid farewell to Uncle Hong.

After leaving the store, head north along the main road.

Shuiyue Fairy Town is divided into three areas: A, B, and C, based on their level of prosperity.

The Qiao family's shops are located in areas A and B, so you can only go to area C.

After walking for a while, we finally saw the city wall.

The city wall is not high, only three or four meters high, and it is engraved with intricate array patterns.

Although Li Lang was new to array formations, he could tell from the complexity of the array patterns that this array was extraordinary.

Following the flow of people, we gradually walked towards the city gate.

Crossing the city gate.

The stone path underfoot suddenly turned into a gravel path.

The streets are lined with plane trees.

Although the shops behind the trees are not as sophisticated and grand as those in Zone A, they still attract a lot of foot traffic.

Compared to Area A, there are more independent cultivators living here.

You either need to be extremely strong or have a special skill.

Otherwise, the monthly water and rent bills alone would be enough to bankrupt an ordinary family.

Li Lang kept walking forward without stopping.

After a long while, the city gate finally came into view.

After passing through the city gate.

A familiar earthy smell wafted over.

The gravel path underfoot has turned into a dirt path.

Looking around, waist-high fences and wooden houses are arranged in a neat and orderly manner.

Most of the residents here are poor, independent monks from the surrounding area.

With inferior spiritual roots, no resources, and no connections, after deducting rent and taxes, one can barely afford to eat three meals a day.

But even among the short, there is a tall one.

In Li Lang's memory, there was a shop here that, although not as wealthy as those in Districts A and C, was more than capable of acquiring two array plates.

Relying on memory.

Li Lang turned left and right on the street.

A sense of familiarity gradually welled up in my heart.

After a while.

He then arrived at a wooden prefabricated house.

Li Lang looked up.

The words "Heyuan Shops" can still be faintly seen on the damaged plaque.

In my memory, when my father was alive, I often came here to buy things for him, so we were quite familiar with each other.

He pushed open the wooden door.

creak...

A musty smell followed.

"Manager Wang?"

Li Lang entered the shop and found it empty.

The wooden floorboards creaked underfoot.

"Manager Wang!" he called out again.

sound off.

The curtain leading to the inner room was lifted.

A woman who looked to be around twenty years old, with her hair tied in a high ponytail, came out.

Her long bangs covered half of her left cheekbone, but they still couldn't hide her delicate features.

Li Lang's brows furrowed slightly.

Through the strands of hair, he could vaguely see a bright red birthmark on the left side of the other person's face.

The woman noticed Li Lang's gaze, reached up and brushed her bangs aside, "Look, look, have you looked enough? If you look again, I'll gouge your eyes out."

Seeing the woman's fierce demeanor, Li Lang quickly averted his gaze, bowed slightly, and said, "Excuse me, I've come to see Manager Wang. Is Manager Wang here?"

The woman walked straight to the counter and, without looking up, uttered two words: "Dead."

"what?"

Li Lang looked up at the woman, his face filled with shock.
