Extracting all things: My attributes grow infinitely.

Jiang Chuan was deeply shaken.

He never expected that the cultivators in this world would possess such extraordinary abilities.

Just one glance.

Bai Qiuhan actually managed to see his true form through the slave puppet.

This caused a cold sweat to instantly seep out from his back.

To know.

Bai Qiuhan is only at the ninth level of Qi Refining.

If it were a stronger Foundation Establishment cultivator, wouldn't they be able to see right through him at a glance?

The identity of the time traveler.

The secret of the cheat code.

These things, hidden deep within his heart, would probably have no place to hide in the face of such a powerful being.

The more you think.

His heart grew even colder.

Just as Jiang Chuan's mind was racing, Bai Qiuhan spoke up leisurely.

"rest assured."

His tone was unhurried, he tapped his folding fan lightly in his palm, and his eyes held a hint of amusement. "I didn't mean any harm by coming to see you this time."

Jiang Chuan remained outwardly calm, but alarm bells were ringing in his mind.

The person before me is a ruthless individual who has set up a shocking trap that has killed countless outer disciples.

To say that you had no malicious intent?

You're kidding me!

Bai Qiuhan seemed to have seen through his thoughts, but she didn't care and continued, "On the contrary, I'm here to save your life."

He changed the subject abruptly: "Are you planning to have Yun Danzi take that precious pill you refined to the Pill Gathering?"

Jiang Chuan's eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing this.

Bai Qiuhan clicked his tongue twice: "Do you know what level of cultivation the mountain lord of Yuanling Mountain, and those Heavenly Fire Alchemists, possess?"

This question doesn't need Jiang Chuan's answer; it's common knowledge throughout the entire Yuanling Mountain.

Foundation building.

A shadow instantly fell over Jiang Chuan's heart.

Bai Qiuhan's tone was calm, but his words sent a chill down his spine: "In front of a Foundation Establishment True Person, the entanglements of karma on Yun Danzi's body can be seen through at a glance. You want Yun Danzi to take on this opportunity to pass on the Dharma for you... Little do you know, Junior Brother, this is truly courting death."

A bead of cold sweat silently slid down Jiang Chuan's forehead.

That's absolutely true. Even an inner disciple at the ninth level of Qi Refining could deduce his true form by following the cause and effect on Ma Yuankui.

Why can't those Heavenly Fire Alchemists do it?!

A Foundation Establishment True Person possesses abilities that transcend heaven and earth.

If they target us.

Your own trump card.

Identity.

How long can it be hidden?

Upon thinking of this, Jiang Chuan was filled with fear. He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

Then he raised his head and stared calmly at Bai Qiuhan.

Thoughts raced through my mind.

This person is definitely not a good person.

It is absolutely impossible for them to visit someone's home without a reason, just to kindly remind them.

He showed no emotion on his face, but simply cupped his hands and said, "Senior Brother Bai, please speak frankly. You came to see me not just to say these things."

Bai Qiuhan smiled, his narrow eyes slightly narrowed. "Smart. Since you're smart too, Junior Brother, I'll just say it directly."

He swiftly unfolded the folding fan in his hand, revealing flowing landscapes on its surface, with several distorted human figures appearing and disappearing in the mist.

"I need you to help me concoct a medicine."

"Um?"

Jiang Chuan was taken aback for a moment, then said, "My level of alchemy is so low that I'm not even worthy of carrying shoes for the alchemists on the mountain. How could I possibly catch your eye, Senior Brother?"

"Junior brother, there's no need to be modest."

Bai Qiuhan said directly, "Being able to refine the Nine Aperture Divine Pill already proves that Junior Brother's alchemy skills are extraordinary. Moreover, since I have taken the initiative to come to your door, Junior Brother must not be willing to let me leave empty-handed."

Jiang Chuan sensed the coldness in Bai Qiuhan's words, his heart skipped a beat, and his thoughts raced.

Facing a Qi Refining Stage 9 expert who could easily kill him.

Jiang Chuan knew.

Any resistance he offered was futile.

However, helping him refine pills is not a difficult task.

The problem is that, given his status as an inner disciple, he could easily have sought out a veteran alchemist at the third level of the Earth Fire realm.

Instead of someone as insignificant as myself.

after all.

Alchemy is no easy task.

Failure means the loss of a precious spiritual material.

Even those long-established and renowned alchemists cannot guarantee 100% success, but at least they are more reliable.

The elixir that Bai Qiuhan sought could not possibly be of low quality; the raw materials alone would probably be priceless.

Is it...

Is he trying to keep this from too many people knowing?

Jiang Chuan's heart stirred, recalling the speculation he had made about Cui Chenghua and the Flower Snake that day.

Bai Qiuhan has most likely failed to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage and is in an unstable state. He dares not show himself openly, fearing that his former enemies will come knocking on his door.

If that's the case.

Then everything makes sense.

These thoughts only flashed through Jiang Chuan's mind.

A smile returned to his face.

"I see. It is my good fortune to be valued by you, Senior Brother." Jiang Chuan cupped his hands in greeting, his tone earnest. "But I wonder what kind of pill you want me to refine?"

Bai Qiuhan did not answer directly. He closed his folding fan and left only two words: "No rush. Before that, I need to resolve your worries."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Qiuhan flicked his finger, and a warm, cyan halo shot towards Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan caught it instinctively.

It was about the size of a palm, irregularly shaped, with faint translucent patterns on its surface, resembling some kind of ancient seal script that had long been lost.

The entire fragment exudes an extremely ancient aura.

Time and vicissitudes.

obscure.

It seems as if it has been adrift in the long river of time for countless millennia.

"This is……?"

Jiang Chuan hesitated.

"This is a fragment of the [Deceiving Heaven Jade]." Bai Qiuhan said calmly, "This is an ancient artifact, and there are probably no more than a handful of people in the world who recognize it today."

"Although this item is damaged, it was once a supreme treasure used to conceal heavenly secrets and evade causal calculations."

"If you carry it with you, even if a Foundation Establishment cultivator is right in front of you, they will not be able to see through the karmic entanglements on your body."

"More than enough to handle a mere alchemy gathering."

Jiang Chuan looked down at the shards in his palm and remained silent for a moment.

Then he raised his head, his face displaying just the right amount of delight: "Thank you so much, Senior Brother! I will remember this kindness forever, and I will serve you faithfully in the future!"

His voice was extremely sincere, and his eyes even had a hint of tears of gratitude.

But he didn't believe a single punctuation mark in the other person's words.

How could the other party be so kind?

Absolutely impossible!

Jiang Chuan hadn't forgotten what kind of hellish place this was, or what kind of ruthless character the other party was who treated human life like dirt.

Even if this thing is truly effective, it must have some hidden tricks left by Bai Qiuhan.

Don't believe everything you hear!

"Senior brother." He straightened up, his expression unchanged. "Now can you tell me what kind of pill you want me to refine?"

Bai Qiuhan gave him a deep look before slowly saying:

"Nine-Turn Life-Extending Pill"

Before Jiang Chuan could finish speaking, Yun Danzi, who had been standing beside him with her nerves on edge, cried out in surprise.

"Mysterious...Mysterious Pill?!"
