Longevity: Starting as a Sect Servant-Chapter 414 - 254: Proving Immortality (Extended - )
Li An remembered clearly that back then, after a group of seven of them entered the secret realm, they explored part of the outer area and found they couldn’t leave, so they dispersed to seek a way to survive.
Li An accidentally encountered a corpse and obtained the Life Nourishing Immortal Skill, which reincarnated in this life as Li An. As for those cultivators who entered with him... Li An always felt they must have died.
Qi Chuanyue was actually still alive...
Li An thought of that Jade Parrot. Could Qi Chuanyue be related to it?
"I heard that Daoist Zhu’s alchemy skills are second to none in the Primordial Spirit Realm. I’m here to trouble you, hoping you can help refine some pills－－"
Qi Chuanyue cupped his fists towards Li An.
Li An suppressed his doubts and calmly said, "Please!"
After entering the cave mansion, the two exchanged pleasantries. Li An immediately asked, "I wonder what pills Daoist wants Zhu to refine?"
"Purifying Evil Pill."
Qi Chuanyue took out a storage bag containing many Fourth Grade spirit medicines and even a Fifth Grade main medicine!
"Can you help, Daoist?"
Li An was shocked on the spot and instinctively said, "Daoist Qi, this is a Fifth Grade main medicine... With my ability, I can only refine a Fourth Grade Purifying Evil Pill. It’s a bit wasteful!"
However, Qi Chuanyue said, "It’s not a waste. Using a Fifth Grade main medicine to refine Fourth Grade pills, the efficacy is certainly better than ordinary Fourth Grade pills, isn’t it?" 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
So extravagant!
This was Li An’s first impression.
Fifth Grade pills are opportunities for the Divinity Transformation Stage, treasures to others, but Qi Chuanyue seems to consider them normal, casually offering them?
Using Fifth Grade main medicine to refine Fourth Grade Purifying Evil Pills, it’s like feeding dragon liver and phoenix gall to a dog...
Damn,
how many opportunities did this guy obtain in the secret realm...
Truly enviable!
"Such a treasure, just to refine Purifying Evil Pills, you are truly... generous!"
Li An couldn’t help but sigh. After some thought, he said, "Since Daoist Qi trusts Zhu so much, Zhu will give it his all. However, I’m not Fifth Grade after all, so I can’t guarantee the pill formation rate. If there’s any loss, I ask for Daoist’s understanding－－"
Qi Chuanyue nodded and said, "Alright, I’ll leave this to Brother Zhu, and I’ll come back in a year to take it, how about that?"
Li An nodded, "Sure!"
Qi Chuanyue immediately left.
After he left, Li An fell into deep thought.
This matter seems strange no matter how I look at it...
Why did Qi Chuanyue suddenly come to him? Could it be that his identity was discovered?
It’s not impossible...
To this day, Li An also doesn’t know how the Jade Parrot saw through his identity last time.
Moreover, he gave the Fifth Grade spirit medicine to Li An and just left, which is even more bizarre!
Normally, if someone asks for this level of pill refining, they would stay by the alchemist’s side until the pill is completed. Isn’t he afraid Li An will just take the spirit medicine and run?
Li An now had this thought!
That secret realm is no longer a blessed place in Li An’s eyes but rather extremely perilous.
He should stay as far away as possible.
In fact, Li An thinks that the danger level of the Jade Parrot vaguely surpasses Shangguan Shengxian, the eldest princess of the Demon Sect.
Maybe, the origin of the Jade Parrot is even greater than that of the Demon Emperor...
However, upon careful thought, running away might not be the wisest choice.
If they have already recognized his identity, it means the Jade Parrot can find Li An, even if he runs to the ends of the earth, it’s in vain.
If they just coincidentally came to him for alchemy, running away would alarm the enemy, drawing unnecessary attention, which would be unwise...
Facing such a mysterious being like the Jade Parrot, every step must be taken cautiously, with no room for error.
"However, even if the Jade Parrot can find me, it also proves it might not be able to leave that secret realm, otherwise why send Qi Chuanyue... Qi Chuanyue is only Late-Stage Nascent Soul, I might be able to kill him!"
In the previous life, Qi Chuanyue’s strength was just about the same as Li An’s. In the secret realm, he gained a lot of opportunities but hasn’t reached Divinity Transformation, and in this life, Li An is almost on par with him...
Of course, whether he has any trump cards is uncertain.
After thinking it over, Li An decided not to run!
He’ll wait right here, but make ample preparations, and if any problem arises, he’ll directly confront Qi Chuanyue.
"Hey, want to eat a Fourth Grade De Fu Pill?"
Li An asked Shangguan Xiaoxiao.
He actually had plenty of trump cards, two Nascent Soul Stage puppets that could fight multiple opponents, the Cyan Flame Divine Sparrow, plus his own cultivation. Ordinary Late-Stage Nascent Soul, one or two face-to-face, aren’t his match.
But adding Shangguan Xiaoxiao would undoubtedly be more secure.
At such a critical moment, every usable card must be utilized.
"I don’t want to eat it."
Shangguan Xiaoxiao replied coldly.
"No, you do. I’ll refine it now!"
Li An spoke.
He first refined a batch of Fourth Grade Soul Nourishing Pills for Shangguan Xiaoxiao and then made Purifying Evil Pills.
"Purifying Evil Pill... Could it be that Qi Chuanyue is going to a place with heavy evil qi and sinister energy?"
While refining, Li An recalled what the Jade Parrot told him, asking him to help find things like a thousand-year Lunar Yin and Ten Thousand Years Earth Evil...
Perhaps Qi Chuanyue is refining Purifying Evil Pills for these things?
...
Two months later.
"Brother Zhu, save me, Brother Zhu, save me!"
On this day, Luo Ai hurriedly ran in. As soon as he entered Li An’s cave mansion, he was already completely flustered and said, "Something terrible has happened, something terrible!"
Li An sensed something and said, "What’s the matter, Brother Luo, don’t panic, speak slowly－－"
Luo Ai urgently said, "I’m poisoned, even Zhan Qingyu is poisoned..."
