"Found it, found it. It took me a long time to find it."
Perhaps there were too few people who bought this kind of cultivation method that had no requirements for attributes. After a long while, the shop assistant patted a book covered with a lot of dust and said in surprise.
"Oh? You really found it? " Lu Xiaotian's face flashed with a hint of joy. He took two steps forward and took the book in his hand. It was indeed the Hunyuan Scripture.
After searching for so long, he still couldn't find it. It was really unexpected that he could get a cultivation method for the later stage of the Qi Refining realm. Lu Xiaotian opened the first page and said, "Does your shop have this cultivation method for the Foundation Establishment realm?"
"Immortal Senior, you must be joking. In the entire Full Moon City, there are probably only a few cultivation methods for the Foundation Establishment realm. Usually, they are not available to outsiders. Naturally, we don't have it here. But a few years ago, about three years ago, there were some rumors about the Hunyuan Scripture. "The shop assistant pretended to be mysterious and lowered his voice to say.
Lu Xiaotian was startled and said, "Rumors about the Hunyuan Scripture? Is it about the later part of this cultivation method? "
"Yes, I heard that it was related to the Divine Firmament Palace. At that time, a few disciples of the Divine Firmament Palace broke into the ruins of an ancient cultivator by chance and obtained some treasures. But before they could return to the sect, the disciples of the Divine Firmament Palace were robbed and killed by a few powerful rogue cultivators. Those rogue cultivators robbed some treasures, including a part of the cultivation method. "
A few rogue cultivators? His cultivation method was given by the black-robed old man. Could it be that the black-robed old man and the others were these rogue cultivators? Lu Xiaotian's heart skipped a beat. The Northern Liang Country was a rather barren and remote secular country with limited spiritual items. Although there were many cultivator families living in the Northern Liang Country, most of them were in the early stage of the Qi Refining realm. There shouldn't be many in the middle stage of the Qi Refining realm. The black-robed old man and the others were almost all in the late stage of the Qi Refining realm. If it weren't for the pursuit of the Divine Firmament Palace, why would they go to such a remote place?
The shop assistant continued, "Later, the Divine Firmament Palace sent disciples to hunt down these rogue cultivators. Soon, they lost contact with them. Perhaps the other parts of the Primeval Chaos Scripture were in the hands of those rogue cultivators, or in the Divine Cloud Palace. As for the specific details, outsiders don't know. After so many years, this matter has almost faded from my memory. If it wasn't for Senior Immortal coming to buy this cultivation technique today, I would have almost forgotten about it. "
"Thank you, this is for you." After Lu Xiaotian paid the required Spirit Stones, he directly gave the shop assistant a piece of Low Grade Spirit Stone.
"Thank you, thank you, Master Immortal." The shop assistant was so excited that he repeatedly bowed to express his gratitude. Although he was around thirty years old, he was still a mortal. Usually, most cultivators would not even look at him, let alone reward him like this. The owner was reluctant to give him a spirit stone. Such a piece of low grade spirit stone was enough for him to live the rest of his life in wealth and without worries. By the time he stood up straight, Lu Xiaotian had already left the shop.
"It seems that I have to find a way to open the storage bag of the black-robed old man. However, these people are very likely to have stolen the treasures of the Divine Cloud Palace. If the news is leaked, I'm afraid I'll be killed soon."
Lu Xiaotian thought as he walked. Soon, he arrived at the Immortal Street according to the map of Full Moon City. Immortal Street was not called this in the past, but all the major Immortal Sects set up a checkpoint here to announce the recruitment of disciples. Over time, everyone got used to this name.
The annual recruitment of disciples was only a few months away. At this time, rogue cultivators from all over the world would come to Full Moon City. At this time, there were thousands of people at the checkpoint of the various Immortal Sects, who were discussing the announced missions.
Lu Xiaotian also squeezed in front of the stone tablet of the Immortal Ranking Board mission. The conditions for recruitment of disciples were different for each Immortal Sect.
Ranked first was the number one Sect in the Immortal Cultivation World, the Ancient Sword Sect. They were good at refining weapons, spirit weapons, or the level of magic weapons used by Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators. This was directly related to the level of a cultivator's combat strength. Therefore, the combat strength of the cultivators of the Ancient Sword Sect was often higher than that of other Immortal Sects.
The requirements of the Ancient Sword Sect were the most stringent. They actually had to obtain a fourth-level demonic beast, Yao Dan, which was equivalent to the strength of an early-stage Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator. For cultivators in the Qi Refinement Stage, it was undoubtedly as difficult as ascending to heaven. Just think about it, rogue cultivators racked their brains to join Immortal Sects in order to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill. Hundreds of cultivators at the peak of the Refinement Stage could not threaten a Foundation Establishment Stage expert. In fact, this was equivalent to rejecting most of the rogue cultivators with mediocre qualifications.
The second was the Green Pill Palace, which was ranked second. Alchemy was its cornerstone. Due to the abundance of elixirs compared to other sects, their cultivation often improved faster, and the overall strength of the sect was extremely tyrannical.
The requirements of the Green Pill Palace were not low. They required to collect no less than 50 types of spiritual herbs. If one was a high-level alchemist, they could reduce the share by half, and a mid-level alchemist could reduce the share by one-fifth.
There were very few alchemists among the rogue immortals. Lu Xiaotian estimated that he should be at the level of a mid-level alchemist now. He still needed some time to settle down before he could become a high-level alchemist.
Except for the top few Immortal Sects, the requirements of the following sects were slightly lower, but it was not easy to complete the task.
There were also some sects that had more special requirements. For example, the Devil Yang Sect only required a Spiritual Root Value of more than 35, but the men had to be handsome and the women had to be beautiful. They had to be no more than 20 years old.
Or the Earth Fire Sect's task stated that the Third Elder of the sect had a strange disease and had been in a coma in an ice coffin all year round. He was still breathing. Anyone who could cure him or provide information about this disease could join the sect.
Lu Xiaotian smiled. Even the Immortal Cultivation Sects were helpless against a disease, how could these rogue cultivators have a solution? It was really a case of turning to any doctor. An Elder of a sect was at least a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage. It seemed that even if they had reached a higher stage, they would not be able to sit back and relax.
Lu Xiaotian then focused on the task of the Divine Cloud Palace. It was also related to the collection of Spiritual Herbs. However, most of the Spiritual Herbs required by the Azure Pill Palace were different. What's more, there were several types of ores. The Divine Cloud Palace was ranked 17th among the Immortal Sects in terms of strength. It was slightly above average, but it was also quite powerful.
After comparing the major Immortal Sects, Lu Xiaotian targeted the Green Pill Palace and the Divine Cloud Palace. The Green Pill Palace was good at alchemy. If he entered the Green Pill Palace, he would have a higher chance of getting the Foundation-building Elixir.
The Divine Cloud Palace could also refine elixirs, but they were not as good as the Green Pill Palace. Therefore, the possibility of getting the Foundation-building Elixir was naturally lower. His biggest goal now was to succeed in building his foundation. However, the Divine Cloud Palace had information about the Origin Scripture. There were not many cultivation methods that were suitable for the Five Elements Spiritual Roots. If he could get the Origin Scripture, he would not easily change to another cultivation method.
Soon, Lu Xiaotian shook his head and smiled bitterly. It was not easy to complete any of the Immortal Sects' tasks, let alone to complete two at the same time. If other rogue cultivators knew his thoughts, they would laugh their heads off. Later, it would depend on the opportunity to see which sect he could enter.
After the preliminary selection of the Immortal Sects' tasks, Lu Xiaotian bought almost all the things he needed to buy. When he returned to the small courtyard, Luo Qing was already waiting at the door. Judging by her expression, she had probably been waiting for a while.
"Brother Lu, you're back." After seeing Lu Xiaotian, Luo Qing's anxious face suddenly showed some joy.
"Why are you looking for me in such a hurry?" Lu Xiaotian asked.
Luo Qing said, "There is another master in our team who is at the sixth level of the Qi Refining Realm. He is the leader of this team. He has decided to enter the Full Moon Mountains in advance. My brother can't make up his mind now, so he asked me to ask you."
"Didn't we agree on the time? Why did it happen in advance for no reason?" Lu Xiaotian frowned. If this team was completely based on the leader's decision, then it was better not to join.
Luo Qing said, "Perhaps he has received information about his own Immortal Sects' tasks and is worried that others will get ahead of him, so he made this decision. However, that person has the elixir formula of the Essence Qi Pill, so my brother asked me to ask for your opinion."
Lu Xiaotian's expression changed as he asked, "Essence Qi Pill? Where are they now? "
"They are in our small courtyard. I will take you there." Luo Qing heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Lu Xiaotian had agreed.
"Big Brother, I'm back." Soon, the two of them arrived at the small courtyard where Luo Yuan was. Luo Qing shouted from several feet away.
"Brother Lu, Brother Lu, you are here too. Come, let me introduce you to the members of the team."
Luo Yuan was very happy to see that Lu Xiaotian had come. He pointed to a middle-aged Daoist priest with a fair complexion. "This is our leader this time, Daoist Priest Fan Qing. He is the strongest."
Through Luo Yuan's introduction, Lu Xiaotian got to know the members of the team.
One of them was a voluptuous young woman, Wang Yuan, whose cultivation level was the same as his. She was in the fifth layer of Qi Refinement.
There were two men in their forties with shiny, oily hair. The bald man was Zhang Guang. The middle-aged scholar holding a fan beside him was Zheng Shiqi. According to Luo Yuan's introduction, Zhang Guang was a great general of a secular country called the Jin Kingdom. He used to command thousands of troops and horses. Even from afar, he could feel a murderous aura emanating from his body. Zheng Shiqi used to be Zhang Guang's military advisor. It was a miracle that both of them could step onto the path of immortality. Their cultivation level was slightly lower than his, at the fourth layer of Qi Refinement. The two of them lived in the same courtyard as Luo Yuan, so they had a good relationship.
"Haha, I have long heard from Brother Luo that you know an extremely brilliant alchemist. It's just that he lives in seclusion and has never had the chance to meet him. I didn't expect it to be such a young junior. Not only is he an alchemist, but his cultivation level is also one layer higher than mine. I really don't know how you cultivate."
Zhang Guang was very forthright. He slapped Lu Xiaotian's shoulder with his thick palm, his fingers like iron hooks. Lu Xiaotian grimaced in pain.
"Brother Zhang, you've used a little too much strength." Zheng Shiqi reminded. In the past, Zhang Guang had offended many people in the officialdom because of his straightforward temper and fiery temper. If not for Zheng Shiqi's reminder, and if he had stepped onto the path of immortality, he would have died in the officialdom.
"Sorry, sorry. I used to practice the Iron Palm, so I used too much strength." Zhang Guang smiled apologetically and quickly said.
