Mortal's journey to immortality

Wang Lu was firing on all cylinders, chasing the wind and clouds all the way.

At night, we came to Yinjiu retreat again.

With the seal, a hole opened in the formation. Just as he was about to escape into it, six azure jade bottles appeared from the gap and floated in front of him.

Looking closely, a pale-faced Zhang Cheng, wearing a gray-white scholar uniform, and a pure white man, Yin Jiu, appeared outside the formation. They seemed to have known for a long time that they would come, and were waiting for him with smiles on their faces.

"Haha."

Wang Lu let out a hearty laugh.

The appearance of the two men instantly improved his depressed mood.

Ignoring the jade bottle, he stepped forward, like a child returning home, and hugged Zhang Cheng tightly. After taking a few breaths apart, he sighed: "I'm so happy to see you, my good senior brother." Oh, my great savior, you came just in time."

Then he gave Yin Jiu a clean and strong embrace. The two of them didn't need to speak, and their hearts were as clear as a mirror.

Wang Lu was very touched to have such a close friend as Yinjiu.

Ten years ago, when he took out the ancient elixir "Qing Ming Dan", although Yin Jiu didn't say anything, he secretly arranged everything for him without leaving a trace and made the worst plan.

He knew that his technique was unique and required a huge amount of mana to break into the middle stage of Nascent Soul, so Xingye called Zhang Cheng back and went all out for his breakthrough.

"Junior brother, you don't have to be like this. Because of the prescriptions of Hua Yun Dan, Shen Huan Dan and Zui Lu Dan that you provided, I combined them with several other elixirs. After repeated verification and deduction, hey, a formula that can be compared to a hundred-turn return I refined the elixir of Yuan Dan, and the effect was surprisingly good. Now I have officially entered the realm of alchemy master, and in terms of merit, my junior brother is indispensable."

Zhang Cheng's smile was ugly and penetrating, like the pale smile of a dead man, but in Wang Lu's eyes, it felt more cordial.

"Return to Yuan Dan."

Upon hearing this, Wang Lu's expression suddenly became serious. If it weren't for the strong support of this elixir, he might still be trapped in the golden elixir stage and struggling.

As the creator of this elixir, the "shopkeeper" Zeng Yan said that after the last battle with him in the secret realm of Kujiang, there was no more news.

The enemy is in the dark and we are in the clear. This person is not only a terrifying enemy, but also a potential serious trouble. We must not take it lightly.

He knew the effectiveness of this elixir very clearly, it was unbelievable. If it weren't for his own skills, he would be a bottomless pit of magic power and a vampire. Why would he have to go through all kinds of hardships, swear oaths, and almost die in search of elixirs and medicines?

If you spend the time spent practicing alone trying to figure out the magical powers such as "Zong Yuan Jian Jian", "Infinite", "Kui Niu Treading the Sky Technique", "Six Talismans", etc., you may gain more and become stronger.

"what."

Didn't Zhang Cheng attend a conference called "Alchemy"?

As his mind was spinning, an idea that should not be taken lightly suddenly came up. He asked with a smile: "Senior Brother Zhang, did you meet any great alchemy or other geniuses at the "Alchemy Conference"?"

"Haha, junior brother, you want to inquire about something, don't hide it, just say it." Zhang Cheng's small eyes narrowed to a slit, and the light in his eyes flickered. Seeing that Wang Lu was about to speak, he hesitated. What you think is generally the same.

He thought for a moment, knowing the importance of this question, and said sternly: "Only Yuanying stage alchemy masters are eligible to be invited to the Alchemy Conference. This conference is held every four hundred years, and its scope covers not only the world's The five regions also include the wilderness and distant lands. Fortunately, this event is held in the South China Sea, so I can return in time to help my junior brother."

"At the exchange meeting, there were four men and one woman who left a deep impression on me. One of them was my junior brother Xi Mo's old rival Ku Yao. This person was truly a rare and gifted Alchemist. His cultivation had reached the middle stage of Nascent Soul. , approaching the late Nascent Soul stage, his attainments in alchemy are on par with mine. Since I am obsessed with elixirs and not very enthusiastic about cultivation, in terms of overall strength, my intuition tells me that he is far above me. Junior brother will return to the West in the future. Mo, you must be wary of this person."

Seeing the king's face suddenly turn cold, Zhang Cheng did not stop and continued: "The other four people are from different regions, and they all have profound and excellent ideas and judgments about the understanding of elixirs. They can be said to be sharp and insightful. They are very powerful. I have been investigating for a long time. Even using Yinluanxuan's resources, they seemed to appear out of thin air, their identities deeply hidden, but stunningly stunning."

"Another thing that shocked me is that two of the four people were actually classified as top secrets by our organization. Only the chief and deputy owners are qualified to inspect them."

"What surprised me the most was a man wearing a mask of a demon-conquering Arhat. Not only had his aura and cultivation been completely restrained, but his voice was not his own. Every time we met, this man looked like a demon crawling out of hell. Ghosts make people shudder and stay away from them.”

"Is there such a weird person?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Lu directly omitted the "highest level of 'top secret'" mentioned by Zhang Cheng. He was 50% sure that this person was probably the shopkeeper Zeng Yan.

Only he has the dual identity of a Dan Dao wizard and a Ghost Dao hero.

Although Zeng Yan is powerful now, he is not so powerful that he can kill himself, but as he continues to fuse another soul, once it is completed, he may be in for a disaster.

The opponent must be strangled in the cradle, otherwise it will be a serious disaster.

Wang Lu smiled lightly and said: "Such a mysterious and powerful man is so fascinating. Now that the conference is not over, he must still be in the meeting?"

"You are indeed my good junior brother. We thought of going together. I am also very interested in this person. However, an expert behaves as ordinary people would expect. In the third month of the conference, he did not even say hello. This person left without saying goodbye and disappeared without a trace. Not only him, but four other people also left one after another within half a year."

"Ha, if you want to meet him, you can only meet him four hundred years later."

Zhang Cheng said with some regret.

There are too few geniuses who have unique insights and are indistinguishable from him. The heroes cherish each other and have too little time to communicate. Disappointment is inevitable.

In fact, he has long seen that the five people are unswervingly stationed in the alchemy path like others. What they pursue is supreme cultivation and powerful strength.

Wang Lu didn't expect Zeng Yan to be so cunning and run away without leaving a trace.

There is a huge crowd, where can I find it?

To make iron, you need to be strong yourself. Improve your cultivation first and then talk about other things.

Hum, the shopkeeper once said, if you insist on going against me, what awaits you is either your death or mine.

I, Wang Lu, am very much looking forward to meeting you next time.

I'm waiting for any tricks.

The two of Yinjiu understood that Wang Lu's breakthrough was imminent and needed to work hard, so they only talked briefly for a moment and then stopped talking.

When leaving, Zhang Cheng gave him ten bottles of the elixir he had refined according to his previous agreement, and said mysteriously that he had specially refined it for him to celebrate his breakthrough to the middle stage of Nascent Soul.

Wang Lu didn't say much, he couldn't help but put it into his storage bag with gratitude in his heart.

Then, it was gone in a blink of an eye.
