Pursuing Wind City
The underground training room!
Xu Mu swallowed down a pill, which looked like a red lotus seed. From his stomach, a faint warmth spread, swiftly extending throughout his body and limbs.
The rich spiritual energy within the training room, like a funnel, converged into Xu Mu, flowing into his meridians and condensing into pure spiritual power.
Once the spiritual power accumulated to its peak, its circulating speed abruptly quickened.
Chirp chirp!
A crow that had completed its transformation into a blue long-tailed bird flew out from the sea of Xu Mu’s consciousness, becoming one with the spiritual power, propelling the advancement of his cultivation base.
Boom!
An invisible surge of spiritual pressure descended, and the internal spiritual power promptly transformed, becoming even more pure and profound, exceeding a threefold enhancement from before.
I didn’t expect to breakthrough on the first attempt!
After consolidating his cultivation base, Xu Mu opened his eyes, revealing a delighted expression.
Upon checking the system, his cultivation base had indeed reached the fourth level of Foundation Establishment Stage, and there was a slight increase in his lifespan, reaching 386 years.
With his cultivation base reaching the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, the power of his various skills naturally rose proportionally. If he were to confront that group of Foundation Establishment cultivators from Liyang Sect again, it should be even easier to handle them.
Chirp chirp!
The blue bird flew out from Xu Mu’s body, landing on his shoulder and gently rubbing against his cheek as if it was celebrating his advancement.
Xu Mu smiled and touched its head, putting it back into his body, then deactivated the training room’s formation and walked out.
For the smooth advancement, he had specifically rented the training room instead of doing this at home.
Long Ye, who was sitting at the counter, raised his eyes. Upon seeing Xu Mu, he casually put down the book in his hand, stood up, and revealed a refined smile.
It was him who had introduced Xu Mu to the Four Seas Immortal Palace, so they were naturally familiar with each other.
Brother Mu, congratulations on your cultivation advancement,” Long Ye greeted habitually, not knowing his exact strength.
You’re too kind, Brother Long,” Xu Mu responded with a bow and a smile.
Once Xu Mu settled the spirit stone bill, Long Ye hesitated for a moment before saying, “Brother Mu, a few of my friends recently accepted a mission to garrison a Spirit Stone mine. Would you like to join them? I remember that you haven’t completed your prescribed Palace missions for this year.”
Since Xu Mu was brought in by him, he naturally wanted to look out for him.
Thank you for your kind intentions, Brother Long. As for the mission, I’ll use spirit stones to offset that requirement!”
Alright then!” Long Ye replied with a wry smile.
Having spiritual stones was certainly domineering and he had nothing more to say on the matter.
Brother Long, may I ask a question?”
Brother Mu, please ask!
I was wondering if there is a way to quickly increase my authority level in the
Palace?”
The main reason Xu Mu wanted to increase his authority was to purchase alchemy raw materials directly inside the Four Seas Immortal Palace.
Compared to the market, the medicinal materials within the Four Seas Immortal Palace were not only more discounted, but also more plentiful – meaning he didn’t need to worry about availability.
The standard method is to complete more missions. Once you accumulate enough contribution value, you can complete the progression missions to level up.”
Can spirit stones be fully substituted for this?
Full substitution with spirit stones, Brother Mu, you really are…
Boastful!
Long Ye exclaimed internally.
They were all anxious to undertake missions in order to accumulate spirit stones, whereas Xu Mu straightforwardly used spirit stones to purchase contribution value.
Contribution values can be exchanged with spirit stones, but advancement missions must be completed personally. However…”
Long Ye hesitated and then said: “There indeed is a shortcut!
Could Brother Long please enlighten me?” Xu Mu eagerly asked.
If you can become an apprentice to an Inner Sect Golden Core Elder, you can directly promote your authority level to four stars.”
Golden Core Inner Sect Elder?
Xu Mu frowned.
The cultivators who could become Inner Sect Elders, either had made significant contributions to the Four Seas Immortal Palace in the past, or were cultivated since childhood by the Four Seas Immortal Palace, remaining utterly loyal to the Palace.
To ask such people to take in a loose cultivator with an uncertain background was not going to be easy.
Brother Long, do you have any connections?”
Xu Mu handed over a medium-grade spirit stone.
In this world, there was nothing that could not be solved with spirit stones. If there was, that meant you simply did not have enough spirit stones.
Brother Mu, I really am powerless!
Long Ye pushed the spirit stone back with a grim smile.
I, like you, come from the background of a loose cultivator. I have no way of courting these Inner Sect Elders!”
There are no other alternatives?
Xu Mu handed the spirit stone over again.
I truly can’t help, but…
Long Ye hesitated once more.
But I can help you find a list of the Inner Sect Elders. It contains their basic information and preferences, so you might be able to devise a plan!”
I thank Brother Long for your kindness!
It’s nothing much!
This time, Long Ye did not hesitate and accepted the Spirit Stone, asking Xu Mu to come over for the list tomorrow.
Upon returning home, the three women were overjoyed to know of his breakthrough, especially Lan Shijin, who even allowed him to use the Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body.
Xu Mu satisfied his curiosity, but—
Just as he entered, the orange liquid came out!
Sigh! The bedsheets need to be changed again, and the hole, probably won’t be usable for several days.
The next day, Xu Mu successfully obtained most of the list of Inner Door Elders.
The reason it was most of the list was because a portion was hidden in the darkness, engaging in unspeakable activities, and hence unknowable.
Xu Mu opened the list and began to examine it page by page.
Yuan Xi, aged 547, at the fifth level of the Golden Core Stage, likes fine food…
Chen An, aged 630, at the third level of the Golden Core Stage, likes to take wives and concubines…”
Lu Qjngping, aged 315, at the fourth level of the Golden Core Stage, is a stoic
cultivator…”
Shen Fu, aged 710, at the seventh level of Golden Core Stage, likes dual
cultivation…”
Nangong Suyi, over 800 years old, at the ninth level of the Golden Core Stage, introverted personality…”
Hmm? Doesn’t a Golden Core cultivator who is over 800 years old have only a few more years to live?”
The lifespan of a Golden Core Stage is between five hundred to eight hundred years. Those who cultivate with special martial methods can exceed this, like Xu Mu who cultivates both law and physique.
Upon seeing Nangong Suyi’s information, Xu Mu’s eyes inadvertently lit up.
Because under normal circumstances, a Golden Core cultivator of this age, being on the brink of life, basically has no desire.
Just like the Ancestor Xuan Guang from the Liyang Sect.
If you take this kind of person as a master, you do not have to worry about them constantly scrutinizing you, prying into your secrets, or have ulterior motives.
After all, a person’s words are kinder when they are on their deathbed, and it’s easier to get along with them.
After going through all the names, Xu Mu eventually selected Nangong Suyi.
Apart from the fact that her conditions were suitable, it was also because she was a woman!
It wasn’t that Xu Mu even spared the old ladies, but because he possessed a secret weapon against old women.
Don’t misunderstand, it wasn’t the 108 moves of Yin and Yang Harmony, but the Stay Age Pill.
Given Nangong Suyi’s status, acquiring a Stay Age Pill is a cakewalk. However, the Stay Age Pill cannot keep one youthful forever, it can only slow down the aging speed of a cultivator’s face.
Nevertheless, with Nangong Suyi’s age, unless she constantly consumed Stay Age Pills, she couldn’t possibly maintain a youthful appearance.
Ordinary Stay Age Pills have pill poison, long-term consumption affects one’s lifespan, and the effects aren’t very good.
If it’s a top-grade Stay Age Pill, not only are the effects better, but it also does not have pill poison, and can be consumed in large quantities.
For an old and frail woman, the temptation of a top-grade Stay Age Pill is absolutely irresistible.
Xu Mu was planning to sell Stay Age Pills anyway, so it’s not considered a waste of Luck Value.
As for why he didn’t continue selling Foundation Establishment Pills?
Because—
He couldn’t sell them!
In the past six months, he traveled to many cities and saw a disappointing phenomenon.
That is every city has established its influence, selling all kinds of Foundation Establishment Pills, and the market has long been saturated.
He wanted to sell the pill to the apothecary but they either offered low prices or rejected it outright.
The reason was simple. They had a fixed supply channel. There was no reason to buy an unidentified pill from an unidentified person.
After all, Foundation Establishment Pills are different from other pills. If there were any issues, they really could cost lives.
Ordinary cultivators only have one chance to establish their foundation in their lives. Naturally, they weren’t willing to risk their lives for a small profit.
In the Tianhe Sect, they couldn’t buy any pills, which was why so many cultivators were willing to take risks.
If Xu Mu wanted to continue selling Foundation Establishment Pills, there was only one way, and that was to join some large power, become a Contract Alchemist, and let them eat meat while he drank soup.
Xu Mu naturally didn’t want to become a hired hand because it wouldn’t support himself and his family. So, he could only switch to selling other pills.
After weighing his options, only the Stay Age Pill was suitable.
One, Stay Age Pill is low-grade, thus high profit!
Two, its effects are visible, and the various apothecaries are willing to buy it privately at high prices.
Three, Xu Mu could directly refine the top-grade Stay Age Pill through the addition of points.
The top-grade Stay Age Pill is a daily consumable for aging female cultivators, and there’s no worry about not being able to sell it.
Xu Mu took out the pill recipe for the Stay Age Pill, remembered the content, pondered it for several days, accumulated a little experience, and then began to add points.
[Stay Age Pill +100]!
[Stay Age Pill +100]!
[Stay Age Pill +100]!
[Stay Age Pill Grandmaster; 0/2.56W]!
After the enhancement was complete, Xu Mu immediately went out to purchase the medicinal ingredients for the Stay Age Pill. Because he was refining the topgrade Stay Age Pill, the required medicinal ingredients were relatively precious, talcing quite a lot of time to gather.
This was also why Xu Mu wanted to raise his authority. Gathering ingredients on his own was too troublesome.
The process of refining the Stay Age Pill was unexpectedly smooth. Three days later, six top-grade Stay Age Pills, round and smooth like agate, were stored in his pill bottle.
With everything prepared, Xu Mu boarded the Flying Boat and headed toward the city where Nangong Suyi lived.
