I Accumulate Spirit Roots for My Next Life - Chapter 119 - 27: Master Qingmu

Chapter 119: Chapter 27: Master Qingmu
After listening to Yang Yutong’s description.
Li Jizhou had a rough idea of the situation.
It should be that after Ye Jingyu returned from Inverted Mountain, his cultivation greatly increased and was discovered by his master.
Back then, when descending into the Thunder Spirit Crystal Ore Cave, Ye Jingyu was only eighteen, with Qi Cultivation Third Level. After leaving Inverted Mountain, within eight short years, he successfully achieved Foundation Establishment with Top-Grade Spirit Root, establishing the foundation at twenty-six, he must have encountered a great fortuitous encounter, impossible to hide from those who are alert.
Ye Jingyu, despite being smart and clever, was after all just a young lad without enough worldly experience.
His master, having lived over two hundred years, needed only some means to obtain his secrets, not a problem.
Or perhaps, Ye Jingyu divulged much of the information he could no longer conceal.
Li Jizhou estimated that the opportunity he acquired back then was the Core Formation spiritual object, Celestial Pure Water, which could enhance the chance and quality of Core Formation, a major opportunity for Core Formation, rare and sought-after.
What Ye Jingyu obtained was likely related to Foundation Establishment, otherwise he couldn’t have established the foundation so quickly.
However, if it was merely a Foundation Establishment opportunity, it would be far inferior to what Li Jizhou obtained, so besides the Foundation Establishment opportunity, there must be other additions, making its overall value comparable to Celestial Pure Water.
His master had no interest in his Foundation Establishment opportunity, ultimately accepting Yang Yutong as a disciple, attempting to obtain the desired results from Yang Yutong, but Yang Yutong never received any opportunity.
Eventually, Yang Yutong had to undergo soul searching.
“You must continue to feign ignorance, otherwise, the Yang family will perish because of you! This matter must not be known by a third person, even your sister!”
Actually, without Li Jizhou’s reminder, Yang Yutong had already understood the stakes upon awakening, shedding tears for the solitude and desolation of his remaining life.
Li Jizhou remained silent about this.
This cultivation world is not a world full of opportunities where everyone can become a dragon.
This is a world of scarce resources, where each tier is crazily fought over, especially in remote places like Qi Kingdom, far from the Spiritual Ancestral Vein.
It’s the same for the Qi Refining Stage, the Foundation Establishment Stage, even more so beyond Core Formation!
With limitations on talent, only opportunities can surpass these limits.
Ye Jingyu’s master formed a Fake Pill; if there are no accidents, he cannot progress further in this life, and his longevity is only half of that during the True Core Stage. Three hundred years later, he will return to dust, naturally unwilling.
Even if it’s his own son, he would surely take ruthless measures.
Ye Jingyu, young as he was, still had some abilities, actually managing to escape soul-searching.
“Master Qingmu!” Silently noted this name.
Li Jizhou became alert.
However, based on Yang Yutong’s description and Ye Jingyu’s trajectory over the years, combined with Master Qingmu’s actions,
Li Jizhou speculated that Ye Jingyu might already know him but may not have disclosed this to Master Qingmu.
“Why did Ye Jingyu insist on finding me back then?”
With several uncertain speculations in mind, Li Jizhou dared not delay further, stepped out to inform Yang Yuyan of his inability to help after being asked to stay, decisively departing.
At Spirit Pearl Mountain market, waiting for a month, the burly man who received the deposit returned as promised, but unfortunately, he only brought back fifteen units of Melted Spirit Sand.
It is said that nowadays, the three sects have broken through many barriers, previously only Early Stage Qi Refining cultivators could enter the Thunder Spirit Crystal Ore Cave, but now anyone below Foundation Establishment can enter, although it is more dangerous, many enter and disappear mysteriously.
Li Jizhou was already satisfied with this; fifteen units of Melted Spirit Sand were almost enough for the Fourth Layer of Body Refining, possessing a Fake Pill-level Mana Shield.
Upon returning to Xiaogang Peak, Li Jizhou sat quietly for several days, contemplating possible hidden dangers.
Regarding Master Qingmu, the Fake Pill cultivator, he was not very fearful.
Compared to a True Pill, a Fake Pill’s magical power and longevity are far less.
Were it a True Pill cultivator, even if Li Jizhou used all his trump cards now, he probably wouldn’t escape.
But facing a Fake Pill, it wasn’t impossible to resist.
The key is that, even if Master Qingmu really knew he might have obtained opportunities, to prevent them from being intercepted by others, he would only come to find him alone.
And now, he was officially an Honored Guest Elder of the Golden Sun Sect, a second-class honored guest elder, he would only come secretly.
One-on-one, facing a Fake Pill Master, Li Jizhou has Tier Two talismans, Tier Two poison potent enough to poison Black Xuan, who is highly resistant, plus Triple Body Refining, and Black Xuan’s innate Illusion Array, he has the power to fight.
The main thing is Bai Yi, the greatest trump card.
Taking them by surprise, using up the source to eliminate them is not difficult.
The only concern is, once done, and if the Divine Intent Sect investigates due to the soul tablet extinguishing, he might have to flee.
All these years, spending so much money, making so many friends in Golden Crow Immortal City, there is also this Xiaogang Peak Quasi-Third Tier free training ground, along with many immature medicinal herbs and Spirit Plants… he would have to abandon them.
“Hope Master Qingmu doesn’t seek his own doom!”
After predicting all possible crises, Li Jizhou was calm and composed; even the worst outcome meant fleeing without threatening his life.
“Hopefully, can settle here!”
According to Li Jizhou’s stable plan, with a Quasi-Third Tier Spirit Vein and Golden Sun Sect’s cover, he can stay till Core Formation.
Once successfully Core Formation, in Qi Kingdom’s cultivation world, he needn’t worry too much.
Hence, he planted medicinal herbs and Spirit Plants on Xiaogang Peak, which require at least a hundred years to mature.
On that day, he went to Little Turtle Peak to show Zhang Ruoyu the auxiliary materials for the Lifespan Extension Pill and checked the Longevity Fruit in Zhang Ruoyu’s hands, agreeing to open the furnace for alchemy in a month.
During this time, upon touching the Longevity Fruit, the Dantian’s ring unexpectedly gave a strange feeling.
This heightened his expectation for refining the Lifespan Extension Pill.
A month later, Zhang Ruoyu arrived as scheduled.
“Pill Master Li, to ensure fairness, I must observe the entire process, hope this doesn’t trouble you?”
Li Jizhou had predicted this.
“It should be so.” After all, Bai Yi’s fusion Pill Fire is not detectable by ordinary people, Li Jizhou had no intention of being greedy.
“Hahaha, Pill Master Li, upright and principled, I’m even more looking forward to it.”
Li Jizhou had never refined a Lifespan Extension Pill before, both in this life and the previous one.
But in recent years, he had thoroughly studied its pill recipe, gaining confidence in possible Pill Fire control and Divine Soul guidance.
Soon, the prepared Li Jizhou began refining the Lifespan Extension Pill on the spot.
In this instance, he was exceptionally serious, for a full month, his Divine Sense barely left the Pill Furnace.
Until a month later, with a soft sound from inside the Pill Furnace.
Two Lifespan Extension Pills with only one layer of cloud patterns successfully emerged.
Two Middle Grade Pills!
This result was satisfactory to Zhang Ruoyu; Middle Grade Lifespan Extension Pills double longevity. If he consumed the Longevity Fruit directly, it would only add five years of longevity, while one pill would add ten years.
Li Jizhou was slightly disappointed; at the beginning and middle stages of refining, he could sense the number and quality of pills nearing three produced, but towards completion, a worldly aura suddenly dissipated, causing both the number and quality of pills to decline.
“Pill Master Li, your pill skill is superb, I am impressed. Since there are two pills, let us each have one; if I acquire another Longevity Fruit, I will definitely collaborate with you again.” Zhang Ruoyu generously suggested splitting half directly.
“Will surely not disappoint!” Li Jizhou gathered his slight disappointment, determined to improve next time.
A moment later, he picked up the Lifespan Extension Pill, the Dantian’s ring once again delivered a strange feeling, seemingly desiring the pill.
“Pill Master Li, I plan to return and consume this pill, will revisit you afterward to discuss the experience.” Zhang Ruoyu tightly gripped the Lifespan Extension Pill, fearing delays, planned to consume it immediately upon returning.
Li Jizhou also wanted to test the Lifespan Extension Pill’s influence on the ring.
However, just as the two exchanged farewells, a powerful aura suddenly emanated from the Golden Sun Sect,
Then, a band of golden light soared straight to the Third Heaven, darting toward Inverted Mountain.
“Supreme Elder!”
Startled, Zhang Ruoyu exclaimed.
This world possesses distinctive paths, above it is Nine Heavens, cultivators below Core Formation can only fly below First Heaven, unable to withstand stronger winds at higher heavens,
Only after Core Formation can one fly within First Heaven.
Across the entire Qi Kingdom, only a few people can ascend to the Third Heaven.
The Supreme Elder of the Golden Sun Sect, at Late Stage of Golden Core, is one!
