Chereads / Tempered Immortal / Chapter 188 - Complex Situation

Chapter 188 - Complex Situation

A little bit of pain is nothing. Compared with mortals, most cultivators are quite tough mentally. However, according to the Yin-Yang Art, this torture lasts for several days, even though, the person must still cultivate without making any mistakes. As doing so would be extremely dangerous, if even one wrong step is taken, they'd be doomed.

People are not sages without any fault, even without disturbance, it's quite possible to stumble a bit while cultivating, not to mention in this inhuman torture…

Although cultivators may not be afraid of pain, no one would be willing to bear the consequences of committing a mistake.

Lin Xuan's face also let out a slight hesitation.

He weighed down the benefits and possible dangers of practicing this Cultivation Method in his mind.

Alder a long time, Lin Xuan stood up, showing a trace of determination on his face.

He was quite confident in his tenacity. Of course, Lin Xuan is not a reckless man, and he always planned before doing something.

Facing such a huge risk, he won't try it before making sure, but if he remembers correctly, there was a record in a book that he has read before. A kind of Spirit Medicine called the "Seven Hearts Pill" which can protect his mind.

As long as his mind remains clear and not stunned by the pain, Lin Xuan believes that with his perseverance, he should be able to complete the transformation process of Yin and Yang Spiritual Power.

After mulling it over, Lin Xuan came to another stone room.

It was full of Jade slips.

These are all kinds of wonderful records related to alchemy.

Lin Xuan swept his Spiritual Sense across the room, and then waved gently with his hand, and a somewhat old-looking Jade slip flew into his palm.

Injecting his Spiritual Sense into it, he found the record related to the "Seven Hearts Pill", which was the right one.

There was a hint of joy on Lin Xuan's face, but when he saw the recipe, his expression was a little strange.

Slightly pondering for a while. He walked out of the Cave Mansion.

After a few moments, a startling ray of light flew out from the green hill, and swiftly went to the southeastern direction, attracting a lot of the cultivators who came to Spirit Pill Mountain to ask for pill refinement. However, after clearly seeing that it was only a young man in his twenties. They retracted their Spiritual Sense.

In a canyon not far from here.

A white mist lingered about, and two faint figures were hiding in it.

Although they've tried their best to hide their cultivation base, the Spiritual Power emanating from them was quite deep. Clearly revealing their Core Formation Stage cultivation.

One of them Lin Xuan can say to be familiar with, with only three limbs and a face full of righteousness. He was about forty years old, he's an important figure of Blue Cloud Mountain, the top of the Big Three.

The Taibai Sword Immortal also came here.

The other person was short in stature. But his eyes were full of Spiritual Qi, and he seemed clever at first glance.

Feng Yuan!

Among the Core Formation Stage cultivators of Blue Cloud Mountain, his strength can only be considered moderate, but he is known for his resourcefulness.

With these two people's powerful Spiritual Sense, Lin Xuan was discovered quickly and easlily.

Taibai Sword Immortal's expression changed slightly. Then returned to usual, but this faint change had fallen into Feng Yuan's eyes.

"Does senior brother know this person?"

"Well, I met him once."

"Oh?"Feng Yuan's face showed a surprised expression. With Zhang Taibai's cultivation and status, he actually knew about a lowly Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator.

"Haha, you shouldn't underestimate him, junior brother."Zhang Taibai seemed to have not noticed Feng Yuan's strangeness: "He is not simple, occupying the position of the Spirit Pill Mountain's junior sect master."

"It turns out that he's a big fish. Do you want to follow him?"

"Hehe, you can follow your own ideas junior brother. You are the military adviser of my Blue Cloud Mountain. The two Martial Uncles said we would mainly adhere to your wishes. "Zhang Taibai smiled happily, without the hint of jealousy.

"Senior Brother, where did that come from? And you have much more experience than me, so of course I would listen to your opinion." Feng Yuan rolled his eyes and said with a smile.

"Since that's the case, let's send someone to take a look. Be careful, we must not let down our two Martial Uncle's expectations. "Zhang Taibai said with a deep sigh, then flicked his sleeve. And a sound transmission note flew out.

A few miles away, a cultivator of the Foundation Establishment Late-stage received the sound transmission note, his expression solemn. He then pulled out a tracking Spirit Tool from his sleeve, slightly discerning the direction, and then disappearing into the horizon.

Just as Lin Xuan had speculated, when all kinds of rumors about Spirit Pill Mountain and the Heavenly Dust Pill came out, although the majority of the Righteous and Demonic Dao old monsters did not believe it, it's a matter of great importance, so they couldn't ignore it.

After all, if it was true, wouldn't it be too late if it fell into the hands of the opposite party?

In this case, they'd rather believe it than neglect it.

The Cultivation World is the way of the jungle. If this kind of thing fell into the hand of a small Sect, not to mention encountering a fate disaster, it would most probably be blatantly bullied by both sides of the Righteous and Demonic.

But Spirit Medicine Mountain is different, and its status is detached. If there is no sufficient reason, they wouldn't offend the alchemist faction just based on a rumor, so both sides adopted a more gentle approach.

On one hand, dispatching some clever disciples, in the name of asking for Alchemy, if the rumors are credible, there will definitely be some clues.

And on the other hand, sending some experts to monitor in the dark.

In short, they wouldn't want to tear their skin before they find any solid evidence.

This is the current situation.

The situation in Blue Cloud Mountain is even more complicated.

Although the Taibai Sword Immortal is a traitor, the two Nascent Soul Elders only paid some extra attention to him. Before, they only thought he liked to fish for fame and weren't suspicious about him colluding with the Demonic Dao.

However, after the trip to the Kuiyin Mountains, they heard Ouyang Qin's secret report, and there was no doubt in the hearts of the two old monsters.

If it were a Foundation Establishment Stage disciple, they would have used the Soul Search technique long ago, but after all, Zhang Taibai is Core Formation Stage Expert, so they can't be too rough.

Although they know how to judge people after living for such a long time, the two Nascent Soul eccentrics didn't have the patience, and it just happened that the rumors of the Heavenly Dust Pill spread out in the Cultivation World.

So they counted on it and sent Taibai Sword Immortal out. Clearly entrusting him with the important task of monitoring Spirit Pill Mountain. But secretly, it was a covert investigation. If Zhang Taibai really colluded with the Demonic Faction, Feng Yuan would definitely find out a thing or two!

That kid's cultivation base may not be as good as Zhang Taibai's, but his cleverness should be far better.

Just as Zhang Taibai threw out the sound transmission note, several cultivators who were not from Blue Cloud Mountain, also flew into the sky, and quietly chased after Lin Xuan.

Zhang Taibai couldn't help but snort. It stands to reason that he shouldn't worry about a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage. He didn't believe in the rumors, but Lin Xuan always gave him a feeling of foreboding.

How could have Ouyang Qin got out of the trap set by Master Miao? The situation he laid out should've been perfect!

In the Kuiyin Mountains, the always indifferent Ouyang Qin was very intimate with this young man. Is there any connection between the two?

Originally, he wanted to fake this private affair as a public one, and send some of his disciples in the name of investigating Spirit Pill Mountain to find out Lin Xuan's true colors. He didn't know that it would also stir up some other forces…

Feng Yuan didn't seem to care on the surface. In fact, he secretly observed Zhang Taibai's every move, and he didn't know what he was paying attention to.

Lin Xuan left the Spirit Pill Mountain and went southeast. If he remembers correctly, there should be a market around there, which is also quite big.

If he wants to refine the "Seven Hearts Pill", he naturally needs to buy the relevant herbs.

Originally, Spirit Pill Mountain had its own Medicine Garden.

However, Lin Xuan did not take it into consideration at all. This was not because he's afraid of causing suspicion, but the materials for refining the Seven Hearts Pill are not there at all.

It's not that this pill is too precious. Its effect is only to protect the mind. For cultivators, it's uses are extremely limited.

But its raw materials are quite peculiar, they're seven highly toxic herbs.

In the sect's Medicine Garden, they naturally planted natural treasures of Heaven and Earth, who would waste precious space to plant some poisonous medicinal herbs, so Lin Xuan simply did not want to even look through it.

Flashing with a bright light, he flew all the way towards the city, on the surface, Lin Xuan did not show the slightest difference, but he sneered in his heart.

With Lin Xuan's cautiousness, and his Spiritual Sense which is far superior then cultivators of the same level, he easily found those sneaky pursuers.

As soon as he left Spirit Pill Mountain he found a few "tails," but Lin Xuan pretended to be oblivious!

It was not that he's timid, but after some thinking, Lin Xuan felt that there was no need to take care of it.

By relying on his Spirit Tools, they should be easy to take care of, but that would attract too much attention.

Anyway, this trip is only to buy a few highly toxic medicinal herbs, there is no need to keep it secret, those cultivators will only see fog.

On the contrary, as they wouldn't be able to find anything, they will neglect him in the future. Which is obviously good for him.
