Keeping a low profile in the world of cultivating immortals

Danyuan Pavilion.

It is the largest alchemy pavilion in the West City. There seems to be a shadow of the Wuquan Mountain Alchemy Hall behind it. I heard that it was founded by an alchemist from the Alchemy Hall.

As soon as the Foundation Establishment Pill appeared.

Usually they appear in stores with strong backgrounds like Danyuan Pavilion.

When Wu Tao heard the news, he was indeed shocked at first, but after the shock, he quickly felt relieved. He is still at the fifth level of Qi Refining, and there is still a long way to go before establishing the foundation.

This Foundation Building Pill was destined to miss him.

If you force it, it will be a disaster for him.

No matter how great the opportunity is, it must be supported by one's own strength, otherwise it will not be an opportunity, but a source of disaster.

Thinking of this, Wu Tao asked: "The Foundation Establishment Pill that appeared in Danyuan Pavilion should have come from inside Wuquan Mountain, right?"

Gu Mingsheng chuckled and said, "The Foundation Building Pills are only mastered by Wuquan Mountain and the other seven sects of the Righteous Path. They are not from the Wuquan Mountain Dan Hall. Is it possible that they can be purchased from casual cultivators?"

This is a rhetorical question.

Wu Tao also knew how precious the Foundation Building Pill was.

It can be said that the Foundation Establishment Pill is monopolized by Wuquan Mountain and other large sects. It is absolutely impossible for casual cultivators to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill. The casual cultivators do not even have a first-level or ninth-level alchemist. How can they refine a second-level Foundation Establishment Pill? Come Kidan.

The recipe is also top secret.

Wu Tao understood this and saw a look of helplessness on Gu Mingsheng's face. He sighed and said: "Hey, this Foundation Establishment Pill appeared too fast. I haven't reached the ninth level of Qi Refining yet, but It's because he has no chance with this foundation-building pill.

"The next time the Foundation Establishment Pill appears again, I don't know what year or month it will be."

"At that time, maybe I have reached the end of my life...casual cultivating...casual cultivating...it's too difficult!"

Origin determines everything.

Wu Tao understands Gu Mingsheng's self-pity. Gu Mingsheng is currently in the middle of the eighth level of Qi refining. According to his age, if there is no accident while hunting monsters, he will definitely reach the ninth level of Qi refining in this life.

But the Foundation Establishment Pill that appeared at this time gave Gu Mingsheng a sense of powerlessness. For someone like him who had the hope of breaking through the ninth level of Qi Refining, how could he not want to get the Foundation Establishment Pill and become a Foundation Establishment monk from then on? If you can join Wuquan Mountain, you no longer have to be a casual cultivator and be oppressed by Wuquan Mountain everywhere.

Even if it stops at the foundation-building stage in the future, if future generations are more ambitious, they can still stay in Wuquan Mountain to practice and escape the fate of casual cultivators.

The Foundation Establishment Pill appeared too early for Gu Mingsheng.

Danyuan Pavilion released the news about the Foundation Establishment Pill in order to attract the ninth-level Qi Refining casual cultivators from various Immortal Cultivation Cities to auction it at a high price.

With so many ninth levels of Qi refining, Gu Mingsheng would risk his life to fight for it?

Because of this, Gu Mingsheng began to feel sorry for himself.

Wu Tao couldn't help feeling sorry for himself, and sighed: "Gu Daoyou, you can't choose your own background. If you force yourself too much, your Taoist heart will become dusty."

Gu Mingsheng forced himself to smile and said: "Hey, Master Li, there is no need to comfort me. I just sighed like this. What else can we casual cultivators do besides accept our fate? There is nothing we can do."

"However, according to past rules, a Foundation Establishment Pill will leak out every fifty years."

"At that time, Master Li was already over 70 years old. With Master Li's talent, he could reach the ninth level of Qi Refining. He might even be able to compete for the Foundation Establishment Pill and achieve Foundation Establishment."

"At that time, you can join Wuquan Mountain and get rid of this fate of being a casual cultivator."

Speaking of this, Gu Mingsheng showed a hint of envy.

Wu Tao shook his head and said, "Who knows what will happen in fifty years."

Gu Mingsheng said: "Yes."

Sighing, he added: "It's just that this feeling of being manipulated by others is really unpleasant!"

Wu Tao knew what he meant.

Pills like Foundation Establishment Pill are also scarce in large sects like Wuquan Mountain. I don’t know how many disciples have grabbed their heads for it. Logically speaking, there will be no leftovers among casual cultivators.

However, Wuquan Mountain, a major cultivating sect, established a city of cultivating immortals and harvested casual cultivators. Firstly, it was in the name of shelter. Secondly, every fifty or sixty years, a foundation-building pill was released to give the casual cultivators a foundation. , hope across classes.

His methods are upright, but as a casual cultivator, he has no choice but to voluntarily fall into his trap.

Gu Mingsheng drank a pot of spiritual tea at the Xuanyuan Magic Artifact Shop and left. Wu Tao knew that he had received the news about the Foundation Establishment Pill and was depressed, so he came to him to relieve his depression.

However, why didn't he go to Li Feiyao or other friends to relieve his boredom, but only to Wu Tao to relieve his boredom? It was because Wu Tao only had the fifth level of Qi Refining and didn't have much feeling for the Foundation Establishment Pill.

But if he went to find Li Feiyao to relieve his boredom, he would only lose his energy. If he looked for friends to relieve his boredom, they were in the late stage of Qi refining and they were obsessed with the Foundation Establishment Pill, which would only make him more bored.

After Gu Mingsheng left, Wu Tao said in a long voice: "The Foundation Establishment Pill!"

To say that he doesn't want to is a lie.

Gu Mingsheng's visit this time also put him in a bad mood. He couldn't help but think that Wuquan Mountain controlled the promotion paths of all casual cultivators, not only controlling the number of foundations built by casual cultivators with Foundation Establishment Pills.

He also used earthly fire to control the weapon refiner.

If Wuquan Mountain wants you to be promoted, then it will let you be promoted. If it doesn’t want you to be promoted, you won’t be promoted.

This feeling of helplessness can be deeply felt by anyone who is a casual cultivator.

After dispelling this negative energy, Wu Tao came to the weapon refining room to meet his master Chen Shan.

The most important thing for him now is to play steadily and improve his overall strength. There will always be opportunities.

On the second day, the news that Danyuan Pavilion would auction Foundation Establishment Pills in two months was indeed flying all over the sky.

Wu Tao paid careful attention and found that there were more and more casual cultivators in the inner city, and the immortal stacks in the inner city felt a bit full.

These extra casual cultivators must undoubtedly be the ninth-level Qi Refining casual cultivators who came from the Immortal Cultivation City of the other six sects after receiving the news about the auction of the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Each of the seven sects of the Righteous Way releases a Foundation Establishment Pill every fifty or sixty years, which is only seven Foundation Establishment Pills. However, the base of casual cultivators is large. There are more casual cultivators in one city than the seven sects combined. Refining Qi Nine floors, naturally more.

Seven foundation-building pills are not enough.

Therefore, as soon as the Foundation Establishment Pill came out, the nine-level Qi Refining casual cultivators gathered in the Immortal Cultivation City at the foot of Wuquan Mountain.

However, the casual cultivators who came to the ninth level of Qi Refining were very low-key and did not cause any trouble. However, the low-level casual cultivators knew a lot about the arrival of the ninth level of Qi Refining, and they became polite when they spoke and looked at the way they walked. , what if the person you encounter is the ninth level of Qi Refining?

The ninth level of Qi Refining kept a low profile, just to build the foundation pill, while the casual cultivators in the middle stage of Qi Refining were also polite, and the work of the patrol team suddenly became easier to do.

In this case, Wu Tao goes out less often, either in the store or at home.

The matter of the Foundation Establishment Pill has nothing to do with him.

Time passed slowly like this, and in the blink of an eye, another month and a half passed.

In the wilderness.

A figure came over, with unconcealable joy on his face. His aura was a little uninhibited because he had just broken through the ninth level of Qi refining. He thought to himself: "Sure enough, I have enough experience in exploring the cave. This time, there was no danger. With the help of the elixir in the cave, I have entered the ninth level of Qi refining."

"Go back to Xicheng now, sell off this harvest, and then go to Xuanyuan Magical Artifact Shop to redeem the jade slips."

This person was none other than Chen Quanshou. He gradually became familiar with the cultivation of the ninth level of Qi Refining. He seemed to have thought of something, and sighed again: "Now that we are at the ninth level of Qi Refining, we should make plans for the Foundation Establishment Pill."

"The last time a Foundation Establishment Pill appeared in West City was more than fifty years ago..."

"Not only Xicheng, but other Xiuxian cities should also go and inquire about it."

With that said, Chen Quanshou walked towards the west city of Wulingxiu Immortal City.
