After arriving at Full Moon City, Luo Qing reluctantly left with the Ancient Sword Sect's cultivators. Lu Xiaotian let the Lu Brothers find a place to stay and he let out a rare sigh of relief. After every adventure, Lu Xiaotian would not do anything and just calmly rest for a while.
After lying on the bed and sleeping deeply for more than two days, Lu Xiaotian finally woke up. His mental exhaustion had completely recovered.
The Lu Brothers had been waiting outside Lu Xiaotian's courtyard. Lu Xiaotian thought for a moment and decided to refine the Foundation Establishment Pills for the two brothers before re-planning his cultivation career.
After taking the spiritual items to refine the Foundation Establishment Pills from the Lu Brothers, Lu Xiaotian directly began to refine the pills. There were at least ten sets of spiritual items to refine the Foundation Establishment Pills inside the barrier. They were all originally prepared for him to refine pills to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm. However, he didn't expect that his harvest in the blood-colored forbidden area would be beyond everyone's expectations. Since he directly used those pills to successfully reach the Foundation Establishment Realm, he didn't need the spiritual items that he originally prepared. After successfully reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm, he had been busy cultivating and had gone through several adventures, so he didn't have the time to deal with these spiritual items. Taking advantage of the rare free time, Lu Xiaotian planned to deal with these redundant and somewhat valuable spiritual items separately.
The value of the Foundation Establishment Pills in the cultivation world naturally didn't need to be mentioned. Every one of them would cause some Qi Refinement cultivators to go crazy. As for those cultivation clans, they would also stock them up regardless of the cost.
The two brothers, Lü Feng and Lü Hui, were also quite good. They actually prepared two sets of spiritual herbs for the Foundation Establishment Pills.
In addition to the ones that Lu Xiaotian originally had left, there were a total of seventeen sets. During this time, Lu Xiaotian didn't stop refining pills for a moment. He refined seventeen sets of pills together and successfully refined eleven sets of pills. The success rate of the Foundation Establishment Pills was more than 60%. If this spread out, it was enough to make those high-level pill refinement masters dumbfounded.
"You two come in." After finishing refining the last set of pills, the small courtyard's restriction suddenly opened.
"Senior!" Lü Feng and Lü Hui nervously waited outside the small courtyard for several days. There was no need to explain how complicated their mood was. After all, to an Aura Refining cultivator, building their foundation was the same as building their foundation. Not only would their strength and status soar, but they would also gain an additional two hundred years of lifespan.
"Your luck is not bad. You've successfully concocted two furnaces of pills. Here are four pills. Take them." Lu Xiaotian flicked his finger and two pill bottles fell into the hands of the Lu brothers.
"This, this is really a Foundation Establishment Pill!" The Lu brothers opened the pill bottle. When they saw the round and plump medicinal pills inside, their faces were first filled with disbelief, then ecstasy. With solemn and grateful expressions, they knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to Lu Xiaotian. "Senior, thank you for your help. If one day I'm lucky enough to enter the palace of the Foundation Establishment Great Dao, I'll be at Senior's beck and call. If Senior has any orders, I'll do anything!"
"Get up. This is your own opportunity."
Lu Xiaotian lifted them up with one hand and the two felt an irresistible force. Their bodies uncontrollably rose from the ground. In any case, it was because the two of them obtained information about the Immemorial Dao Scripture first. Moreover, it could be said that they had a bountiful harvest in the Immemorial Dao Scripture. Concocting Foundation Establishment Pills for the two brothers wasn't a big deal.
"Regarding the matter of me concocting pills for the two of you, I don't want anyone else to know. Do you understand?"
"We'll follow Senior's instructions. We won't let a fourth person know about this matter. If we violate Senior's instructions, we'll be struck by lightning." Lü Feng and Lü Hui hurriedly made a deadly oath.
"Very well. You two go prepare for the Foundation Establishment Great Dao Scripture. I'm also going into seclusion." After handing over the Foundation Establishment Pill to the other party, the favor that he owed Lu Xiaotian before could be considered to have been repaid. Lu Xiaotian ordered his guest to leave.
"Senior, you helped us refine the Foundation Establishment Pills for free. We were too weak to repay you, so we could only engrave your kindness in our hearts. However, we encountered a rather strange thing in the Immemorial Daoist Scripture. Perhaps it will be of some help to Senior in the future. "Lü Feng thought for a moment and took out a black stone.
"Shadow Recording Stone?" Lu Xiaotian narrowed his eyes and reached out to take the Shadow Recording Stone into his palm. The current him was no longer an ordinary greenhorn cultivator. Naturally, he knew what the Shadow Recording Stone's use was.
"This time, it's all thanks to this Senior. Otherwise, with our strength, it's hard to say if we would have been able to walk out of the Clear Heaven Lake. Senior Lu doesn't look very old, but he's already a Foundation Establishment Great Dao Scripture Master. Moreover, he also has such powerful alchemy skills. It's really hard to imagine. "After leaving Lu Xiaotian's courtyard, Lü Hui said with a lot of emotion.
"Senior Lu seems to treat people coldly, but in fact, he's very trustworthy. Moreover, he's not the kind of person who only cares about profits. As long as we don't have any crooked ideas, Senior Lu won't point his sword at us. In the cultivation world, where people's hearts are sinister, it's really rare for Senior Lu to have such a mentality. "
Lü Feng nodded in deep agreement. Otherwise, if it was a more scheming alchemist, not to mention being unable to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill, even if they could, they definitely wouldn't give all four Foundation Establishment Pills to the two brothers. One more Foundation Establishment Pill was always one more guarantee of success in reaching Foundation Establishment. Lu Xiaotian's gift could not be said to be small.
"Everything in Xuanye City has been arranged properly. Our people will enter in batches according to the plan. You guys can't say that there's a leak and let other people notice. Otherwise, it's a small matter if you fail at the last step, but it's a big matter if you can't protect your own lives. "
"Don't worry, we'll take care of this matter."
The spiritual power on the Image-Retaining Stone was almost exhausted. The figures in the middle were very vague, but it looked like a group of people were secretly plotting something big. Lu Xiaotian knew a little about Xuanye City. It was not close to the Southern Wilderness, but it was an extremely important city in the south of the Plenilune Immortal World. If they lost Xuanye City, perhaps the entire southern part of the Plenilune Immortal World would be in danger. Without the southern barrier, the Plenilune Immortal City would directly fall under the attack of the foreign cultivators.
Lu Xiaotian was thinking about how to send this news to the higher-ups of the Spirit Cloud Palace. After all, he was also a member of the Plenilune Immortal World. Now the living environment of the entire Plenilune Immortal World was not bad. Once the foreign cultivators invaded, there would be war everywhere. At that time, the people would really be plunged into misery and suffering. In the war between the two Immortal World, even if the Foundation Establishment Cultivators were mixed in, it would not be a big deal. Lu Xiaotian naturally did not want the environment of the Plenilune Immortal World to become too bad.
However, just as he was thinking about whether he should immediately return to the Spirit Cloud Palace, the Image-Retaining Stone had turned into ashes. Now, even if he returned to the Spirit Cloud Palace, he was afraid that no one would believe him. After all, even if the Image-Retaining Stone was still there, the blurry images in it were not very convincing. If the news was not true, he could not afford to be blamed.
"It seems that I can only wait and see." Lu Xiaotian thought about it. After considering some of the powerful relationships, he shook his head with a wry smile. He found that what he had just thought was unrealistic.
However, the only thing that was certain was that the cultivators of the Southern Wilderness and the Firmament Realm were becoming more and more active. There would definitely be friction between the major forces. The only difference was the scale of the battle. In any case, for someone like him who was not very important in the Sect, once the battle started, the probability of becoming cannon fodder was not low. At least, the Sect would choose to protect the core disciples. Now, if he showed his attainments in alchemy to the Sect, he would naturally be able to obtain the most core protection. However, this exchange at the cost of losing his freedom was not what he wanted.
These years, he had been seeking survival in various dangerous places and had not really been comfortable. No matter what the situation was, in the end, the only thing he could rely on was his own strength.
Lu Xiaotian did a little calculation and found that his strength was already extremely powerful among the Foundation Establishment Cultivators. His body cultivation had already reached the sixth level, which was equivalent to the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. In fact, his combat capability was much more powerful than that of the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. In addition, he had the Blazing Flame Sword and the more powerful Fire Dragon Bow and Arrow. Also, he had taken advantage of the time he had spent on his return to the Spirit Cloud Palace to complete the sacrificial refining of the Earth Splitter. In addition, he also had the Heaven Reversal Pill, which could restore his transcendence energy in an extremely short period of time. There was also the sixth level puppet that Luo Qing had given him, the Seven Stars Sword Formation, and the Fire Dragon Scale Armor. Among the Foundation Establishment Cultivators, his strength could be said to be extremely powerful. However, Lu Xiaotian was still somewhat dissatisfied. In his opinion, other than the sixth level of body cultivation, the other factors were more or less the effect of external factors. Moreover, his own cultivation was still relatively low. It was a pity that he could not cultivate the Rending God's Secret Technique for a second time. Otherwise, his strength would increase exponentially. If his cultivation increased, the power of the Transcendence Orb would also be greater.
"Red Bamboo Pill!"
Lu Xiaotian made up his mind. Only this kind of pill that could greatly increase the speed of cultivation, together with the Cold Maple Pill used in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm and the Purple Sun Pill used in the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, would be able to increase his cultivation at a faster rate.
Originally, when he escaped from the Golden Terracotta Statue's cave, he had already exhausted all the spirit stones on him. However, the number of Foundation Establishment Cultivators who had died in his hands was not small. Just the number of Foundation Establishment Cultivators who had died in his hands was a few in the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, and more than twenty in the early and middle stages of the Foundation Establishment Realm. At this time, Lu Xiaotian's wealth was more than that of most Foundation Establishment Cultivators. For the time being, he was naturally not in a hurry to earn more spirit stones.
After repeatedly refining the Red Bamboo Pill, not long after, Lu Xiaotian had successfully refined the pill. Compared to the Red Bamboo Pill, the refining of the Cold Maple Pill was much easier. The Cold Maple Pill was originally a top-grade pill used by Foundation Establishment Cultivators in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm to increase their cultivation. After consuming the Cold Maple Pill every day, Lu Xiaotian's cultivation speed was already comparable to that of most extremely talented cultivators. After all, no matter how talented one was, it was extremely rare to see someone like Lu Xiaotian who swallowed pills as if they were beans. With the assistance of the Red Bamboo Pill, Lu Xiaotian could originally refine the medicinal efficacy of one Cold Maple Pill a day at most. Now, he could refine the medicinal efficacy of three Cold Maple Pills a day. With such a fast cultivation speed, Lu Xiaotian was confident that even talented cultivators like Yuan Hao and Luo Qing wouldn't be faster than him. In fact, they might even be a little slower.
Two years later, a two-meter-tall giant puppet clad in thick armor appeared. It held a heavy hammer in one hand and a large earth-yellow shield in the other. With the speed of a meteor catching up with the moon, it charged towards a hundred-meter-tall copper-core tree with the large shield. With a loud bang, the towering tree collapsed with a loud crash, crushing a large number of other trees.
At almost the same time, a golden giant with a similar build rushed out of the woods with a two-handed heavy sword in its hand. The sword slashed towards the head of the green puppet. The green puppet's large shield was pushed forward.
The earth-yellow shield flickered with light. As the sword and shield collided, the earth-yellow shield sputtered out a large amount of dirt. However, as the high-grade earth-attribute spirit stone on the chest of the green puppet flashed with light, the damage to the earth-yellow shield was repaired in an extremely short amount of time.
The green puppet and the golden humanoid puppet fought fiercely, causing quite a commotion. After a short moment, a dozen or so Foundation Establishment cultivators arrived one after another.
These people were actually rushing towards him. Lu Xiaotian, who was hiding in the shadows, was inwardly vigilant. He put away the two puppets and quietly retreated. As time passed, his Aura Concealing Technique became increasingly refined. Foundation Establishment cultivators would find it difficult to discover his specific location. As for how effective it was against Jin Dan cultivators, he wasn't too sure.
"What's going on? Just a moment ago, there were still two puppets fighting. How did they disappear without a trace in the blink of an eye?" The woman in a red and blue dress who was the first to arrive had an astonished expression.
"Perhaps the remnants of the Thousand Bamboo School sensed our arrival. However, I don't know why they started fighting among themselves. After discovering us, they fled a step ahead of us. These fellows are truly vigilant. It's a pity that we missed such a great opportunity. If we worked together, we should have been able to capture those two. If we were able to kill a cultivator who can control a sixth-grade puppet, it would be a great achievement for all of us. Not to mention the loot from them, just the rewards from the alliance would be enough for us to use for a period of time. "Another black-bearded old man said with a regretful expression.
At this moment, Lu Xiaotian had already returned. However, he was disguised as an ordinary early stage Foundation Establishment cultivator who had also come from Full Moon City. After mingling with the group, he only needed a few words to understand the truth of the matter.
Lu Xiaotian laughed self-deprecatingly. In the blink of an eye, he had already stayed in Full Moon City for more than two years. With the help of the Scarlet Bamboo Pill and Cold Maple Pill, his cultivation speed had increased by leaps and bounds. In just two years, he had advanced from the fourth layer of Foundation Establishment to the fifth layer of Foundation Establishment. He was no longer at the bottom among Foundation Establishment cultivators. Lu Xiaotian estimated that if he continued at this speed, he would still have a lot of time to collect enough Gold Condensing Fruits before he reached the peak of Foundation Establishment.
In these two years, not only had his cultivation changed, but the situation of the entire Full Moon City had also changed. Not only had the number of foreign cultivators appearing in the Full Moon City increased, but their numbers had also increased. It was clear that when he was practicing the battle tactics of the two puppets in the Full Moon Mountain Range, he had alarmed the other Foundation Establishment cultivators, causing them to think that he was a cultivator from the Thousand Bamboo School. Thus, they had gathered together to beat him up. However, it was a pity that Lu Xiaotian's vigilance was abnormal. He left one step ahead of time. Otherwise, even if he could explain it clearly, it would be troublesome.
Lu Xiaotian hesitated for a moment, then returned to Full Moon City with most of the cultivators who had failed to find anything. Lu Xiaotian was about to return to the small courtyard he had rented when he encountered a large group of immortal guards searching along the way. The ones in charge of leading the group were actually two late stage Foundation Establishment cultivators. Such a lineup was usually not seen.
"Stop, who are you?" The goateed old man in the lead shouted at Lu Xiaotian, who was about to turn around and leave.
"Didn't you check when you entered the city? Since when did Full Moon City question the people in the city? " Lu Xiaotian stopped and turned around. This group of Foundation Establishment cultivators were already looking at him vigilantly, but he naturally wasn't afraid in the slightest.
"Times have changed. Today is different from the past. I received orders that foreign cultivators might have sneaked into Full Moon City, so I have to search every house and every corner of the city." Seeing that Lu Xiaotian's cultivation was much lower than his, the goateed old man's tone carried a trace of arrogance.
"Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Spirit Firmament Palace, Lu Xiaotian." Lu Xiaotian threw the waist token that represented his identity as a disciple of the Spirit Firmament Palace to the other party.
"So it's an outstanding disciple of the Spirit Firmament Palace. My apologies. "After the goateed old man learned of Lu Xiaotian's identity, he felt some respect. No matter what, a disciple of a Sect always had some advantages over a Loose Cultivator.
"How long will this search last?"
