Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 230: Chapter 149: Foundation Establishment Today! [Triple Combo Super Chapter]

Including the three that Li Changhe gave earlier, there are already six pills.

Among these six, five are two-stripe ones, which is already quite good.

Then Ji Yuan rested for a day, both to let the alchemy furnace rest and to restore his spiritual Qi, ensuring he was always at peak condition.

After a day, Ji Yuan opened the furnace again to refine the second batch of Foundation Establishment Pills.

To the west of Medicine King Valley.

By a lake called “Black Water Pool,” the six great immortal sects gathered here.

The entrance to the Nine Nether Cave Heaven is located here.

Black Water Pool is vast, seemingly without a visible edge, and the pool’s water is as black as ink.

The water is lifeless; cultivators who have been here say that no living creatures reside in Black Water Pool.

Some storytelling cultivators even say that the pool is black because many cultivators died inside the Nine Nether Cave Heaven, and their lingering resentment dyed the pool’s water black.

After the Water Dragon Sect’s flying boat descended, Du Wanyi, remembering Ji Yuan’s advice, found an inconspicuous corner to sit in, rarely looking up.

Any occasional glances were to observe the actions of those around her.

Several days passed this way.

During this time, the Water Dragon Sect issued some additional information updates, such as which other powerful Qi Cultivation stage disciples were in the other five immortal sects.

Those disciples who could contend with Foundation Establishment cultivators were especially highlighted.

For the Water Dragon Sect, it was naturally Feng Yichen.

At Joy Palace, it was a female cultivator named Li Zhuanqing, highly skilled in the Ecstasy Dual Cultivation Arts, with formidable strength, especially against male cultivators, with endless methods.

As for Medicine King Valley, the previously strong Jian Zong died for some unknown reason, and the remaining Zhang Zehuai was slain by Feng Yichen.

But it is said that this time there is still a powerful Qi Cultivation stage disciple named Liu Duan.

From the north, the Spirit Control Sect also produced a Qi Cultivation stage disciple capable of killing Foundation Establishment cultivators, named Huang Tian.

It is said he obtained a certain secret technique, allowing him to simultaneously control two late-stage tier one demon beasts, and others say he controlled a tier two demon beast, allowing him to kill Foundation Establishment cultivators.

From Corpse Transporting Mountain, a man named Hu Fu controlled a hairy zombie, and it is said that two Foundation Establishment cultivators have already died by his hand.

The remainder is Sword Ruins… above the mortal world, alone, with three Qi Cultivation stage disciples who have killed Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Qin Feng, Zhao Dun, and He Ruoyao.

But concerning Sword Ruins, their nature is rather solitary; if not provoked, they generally would not actively attack others.

This is generally the case.

No one knows what the situation will be inside the Nine Nether Cave Heaven.

After all, as long as they silence others after the fact, they can still maintain that solitary nature when they come out.

After reading this information, Du Wanyi memorized their appearances carefully and planned to flee immediately if she encountered them inside the Nine Nether Cave Heaven.

Stay far away.

After waiting a few more days, Han Feiyu finally came to find Du Wanyi the day before the Nine Nether Cave Heaven opened.

“Junior Sister Du, I may not be able to stay with you once we enter the Nine Nether Cave Heaven,”

Han Feiyu said with an apologetic smile.

Earlier in the Water Dragon Sect, before they set out, the two had agreed to act together in the Nine Nether Cave Heaven, counting on supporting each other to some extent then.

Du Wanyi had already guessed this outcome upon seeing him walking with Feng Yichen and the others on the way,

so she wasn’t too surprised.

It’s fine not to go together; it’s actually convenient being alone.

“Alright, it’s no problem. Brother Han, be careful,”

Du Wanyi said with a smile.

“Okay.”

After apologizing, Han Feiyu… that was all; there were some things he wasn’t in control of, and he couldn’t offer Du Wanyi any compensation.

Only just as he was about to leave, he thought of something, left a note for Du Wanyi, and then left.

Once he was gone and seeing there was no one around, Du Wanyi took out the note and looked at it.

Scribbled on it were a few words.

“Under no circumstances go to Ghost Flood Dragon Lake.”

The next day.

A spatial passage appeared above Black Water Pool, which connected to the Nine Nether Cave Heaven.

The Golden Core Zhenrens of the six immortal sects, along with the Loose Cultivator Alliance, worked together, each casting spells to stabilize the passage, and then the many Qi Cultivation stage disciples entered in succession, rushing in.

Many went in, but few came out.

…

Months passed in the blink of an eye.

Ji Yuan refined a batch of Foundation Establishment Pills every half month, using five batches of ingredients, taking him two and a half months in total.

The last batch of Foundation Establishment Pills was completed.

Of the five pills, four were successfully produced, with no pseudo Foundation Establishment Pill semi-products, comprising three two-stripe and one one-stripe Foundation Establishment Pills.

Seeing this, Ji Yuan sighed in relief.

The first three batches of Foundation Establishment Pills had only managed three pills each, but by the fourth batch, with more experience, he could successfully make four pills per batch.

With the Foundation Establishment Pills completed, Ji Yuan stored away the Scarlet Blood Tripod Cauldron and took out a jade box from his storage bag.

When he opened the jade box, a rich medicinal fragrance instantly filled the entire room, and Ji Yuan felt all his fatigue from alchemy dissipate with just one whiff.

He looked down to see that he had refined 17 Foundation Establishment Pills in total, and combined with the ones Li Changhe had previously provided, 20 round Foundation Establishment Pills lay quietly in the jade box.

Among the 20, 14 were two-stripe pills.

The remaining six were one-stripe pills.

As for the legendary three-stripe Foundation Establishment Pill, whether due to lack of skill or materials, Ji Yuan had not managed to produce any.
