Cultivating Immortality Begins with Rejuvenation.

Chapter 161 Gift of Longevity Pill
Li Ji'an believed Duanmuqin's honesty when she seemed to be in love.

They are all mature independent cultivators who have been struggling in the bottom of the cultivation world for many years, so it is impossible for them to really tell anyone the truth.

However, there were many loopholes in his words, and they could not be reconciled with the bait of the opportunity to form a pill that he had thrown out before.

There are many people in the cultivation world who sell so-called treasure maps. Not to say that they are completely fake, but at least 99% of them are fake.

He was originally a casual cultivator in Tianyuan Prefecture. Because the five major Jindan sects and Wanfa Palace in Tianyuan Prefecture were in a three-way balance of power and checked and restrained each other, there was a lot more room for casual cultivators to survive, and at least the resources in the early stage of Jindan were more abundant.

Apart from being a little less safe, it is more suitable for individual practitioners.

His claim that he migrated here just because of a treasure map is naturally not credible.

What's more, he was so sure that there was an opportunity to form a pill, and even described it in such detail, and especially emphasized the inheritance of the Dao of Music.

This is enough to show that she particularly trusts the source of the information about this cave.

However, as an adult, Li Ji'an was tactful enough not to expose the truth or get to the bottom of it, as that would only add more lies and make Duanmuqin waste his brain cells making up stories.

On the other hand, Duanmu Qin's ability to tell such an obvious lie as the treasure map was also a clear message to Li Ji'an not to ask too much about the source of the information.

Li Ji'an didn't care about the source of the information and only extracted key credible information from its description.

First, the opportunity in the cave must be real. Although it is not certain what is inside, it can be judged from Duanmu Qin's actions that it must not be too ordinary, otherwise he would not have come to the fairy city to lie dormant for fifty years. This time, he gave himself the biggest handle in order to gain his trust.

Secondly, the cave is not far from the excavated ruins of the Biyun Sect, and it is very likely that they are the former sites of the same ancient sect. Judging from the excavated ruins here in the Biyun Sect, the risk is not great.

Generally speaking, as long as there is nothing strange happening in these ancient sect ruins, there will not be much danger. After all, it is the location of the sect, so there will not be much murderous intention. The biggest problem is the restrictions.

Third, this opportunity is not available to me for the time being.

The Biyun Sect has now done what it should do, and has already issued a kill order for anyone who trespasses into the restricted area.

Not to mention that he currently does not have the strength to face the sect's masters. Even if he manages to escape from the sect's masters, there will be no place for him to stay in Cangyun Province.

And with his current strength and status, looking at the entire Tiancang Territory, only in a region like Cangyun Province, where one sect rules alone, can he have the greatest security and the most status privileges.

If he has not regained his youth, has no special skills, and has no hope, he would naturally be more suitable to go to a place with greater freedom and greater chances of success, where there is a greater hope of miracles.

But for him now, safety is more important than freedom and opportunity.

"As for breaking the restriction, I can give the fairy a guarantee. However, I will not consider trespassing into the restricted area for the time being." Li Ji'an said frankly.

"Also, judging from the current situation, Li believes that the cave the fairy mentioned will most likely not be easily discovered. Firstly, there is a restricted area that isolates the cultivators outside, and secondly, the Biyun Sect's energy is now consumed by external enemies and relics.

Therefore, Li advises the fairy to wait for the right time and not to act impulsively.

Upon hearing this, Duanmu Qin looked at Li Ji'an approvingly.

He does not question or ask any further questions, but is able to quickly analyze the key points and give the most pertinent suggestions.

It has to be said that this also gave Duanmu Qin a reassurance.

In the past few years, when the Biyun Sect was vigorously excavating the ruins and getting closer and closer to the cave, she acted impulsively, but did not succeed in breaking the restriction.

Afterwards, the Biyun Sect set up a restricted area, and she almost took the risk, but she was short of a second-level forbidden-breaking talisman.

Until now, I actually have similar thoughts to Li Ji'an, but I am still a little worried.

Li Ji'an's advice at this moment made her feel much more at ease.

"Qin'er was right about the person. Li Lang has worked hard just now, now just enjoy yourself." Duanmu Qin was in a good mood. She turned over and sat astride Li Ji'an.

Although I decided to have an in-depth discussion with Li Ji'an at that time, I still felt a little uneasy about handing over my secrets to others.

Even constantly on guard against being over-picked.

At this moment, her affection for Li Ji'an doubled, and she was completely relaxed.

As a pair of delicate hands pressed every inch of muscles and bones, Li Ji'an realized that Duanmuqin's previous massage techniques still had some reservations.

What made him feel most different was that when Duanmu Qin was massaging him this time, the water-based magic power in his dantian was endless.

It not only soothes muscles and bones, but also has a peaceful and warm nourishing power.

Feeling the lubrication like essential oil, every cell in his body was sucking it in unconsciously.

"It has such a strong nourishing effect on my body as a second-level physical cultivator?" After a moment, Li Ji'an was surprised.

The water-based skills that Duanmu Qin practiced were definitely not simple. His usual perception of them was just average, but at this moment he could clearly feel the powerful nourishing effect of the water-based magic.

And the magic power is pure and powerful.

It seems that he has some methods of gathering energy that even the consciousness of the late foundation building stage cannot penetrate.

Duanmuqin first used both hands to press and knead, then slid her entire body over Li Ji'an, and finally moved her body around a particular point...

At that moment, he felt as if he was dreaming back to the health club in his first life.

The next day.

Li Ji'an dressed neatly and glanced at Duanmu Qin, who was sprawled lazily on the warm jade bed. "Fairy Qin, you've worked hard. Have a good rest. I'll go make the elixir first."

Duanmuqin's eyes were filled with admiration as she gazed at Li Ji'an, who was still full of energy and showed no sign of fatigue. Although her magical secrets could nourish and repair a man's body and soul, last night's unbridled galloping was far beyond the scope of her magical nourishment.

If she hadn't sensed that Li Ji'an's Qi and blood were the same, she would have suspected whether Li Ji'an was also practicing physical cultivation.
-
Three days later, in the alchemy room.

"Om~" a sound of the elixir was heard.

The fire spirit retracted its spiritual flame and floated out from Li Ji'an's dantian, returning to the red-black stone to rest.

Li Ji'an waved his hand and three longevity pills floated out of the high-grade alchemy furnace.

A fine product that can extend one's life by ten years, almost reaching the limit of a second-grade longevity pill.

Two mid-grade pills can extend one's life by seven years, which is considered normal for an ordinary alchemist. However, it is the result of Li Ji'an's deliberate exploitation.

In order to obtain that fine longevity pill, Li Ji'an squeezed out the remaining medicinal properties. Otherwise, three top-grade pills or four mid-grade pills would be his normal level.

He put the fine longevity elixir into the jade bottle and went directly to the core area and came to the Jiuding Chamber of Commerce without delay.

Ever since Zhao Shuyao’s 100th birthday four years ago, the matter of the Biyun Sect ruins happened to be made public. Li Ji’an came less frequently in the past four years, especially in the past two years when the ruins began to be in turmoil and the Chamber of Commerce received a special warning from the Biyun Sect. Li Ji’an almost never went there again.

Every time he saw Zhao Shuyao before, he became more old-fashioned, and his lifespan disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Although Li Ji'an had long been accustomed to life and death and was very accepting of separation and death, it was Zhao Shuyao who gave up her second-level physical cultivation in exchange for the main medicine for his foundation building.

Normally, if Zhao Shuyao were promoted to the second-level physical cultivation, her life span would be extended by at least another twenty or thirty years. Unfortunately, she has missed the best time to be promoted to the second-level physical cultivation.

Now I can only give him the longevity elixir as a small token of my gratitude.

Not long after, Li Ji'an arrived at the backyard of the Chamber of Commerce and met the 104-year-old Zhao Shuyao.

Tong Yaoyao, who is in the middle stage of foundation building, is lovingly combing Zhao Shuyao's silver hair.

"Aunt Yao, Aunt Yao." Li Ji'an walked forward with a smile.

"Xiaofan is here." Zhao Shuyao looked at Li Ji'an kindly.

"Huh? You guy..." Tong Yaoyao moved in an instant, flashed to Li Ji'an's side, and scanned Li Ji'an from head to toe with her spiritual sense.

"Tsk tsk, didn't you say you didn't want to find a Taoist partner? That's not bad, female water cultivators gain the best benefits from dual cultivation. Hey, this female cultivator..."

Li Ji'an was slightly startled. After he was dressed, he had already cleared all the aura on his body. Even his consciousness in the late stage of foundation building could not detect any aura.

Tong Yaoyao actually sensed it the moment they met.

"Xiao Fan has found a Taoist partner? Okay, okay, bring her over to Aunt Yao to see when you can." Zhao Shuyao's face lit up with joy.

"Aunt Yao, Aunt Yao, and fellow Taoists are just ordinary Taoist friends, not dual cultivation partners." Li Ji'an explained with a smile.

"Heh, you're still so dishonest. How could you hide this kind of thing from your aunt Yao?" Tong Yaoyao pouted.

"However, I really didn't expect that you would be so lucky to find such a Taoist partner. When my mother passes on that technique to me, Aunt Yao will pass it on to you. It is definitely a sacred dual cultivation technique that you can't even imagine, and it is definitely not comparable to ordinary dual cultivation techniques. If you have that sacred technique, and you practice dual cultivation with a female cultivator like this, you may be able to achieve Dan."

"Thank you, Aunt Yao!" Li Ji'an thanked her.

I had never practiced dual cultivation before, not only because I preferred the pure fusion of body and soul, but also because the magic power gained by dual cultivation was similar to taking elixirs.

The mana gained by ordinary dual cultivation techniques is relatively thin and not solid.

If there is a superior secret technique of dual cultivation that can satisfy his demand for magic power, it is not impossible for them to help each other with magic power after the fusion of souls.

After all, the physique of a second-level physical cultivator can definitely withstand it.

Especially what Tong Yaoyao said about forming the elixir.

After decades of interaction, he had a general understanding of Tong Yaoyao's family background.

They have a strong foundation in the Wanshang cultivation area. However, Tong Xiangyu seems to have violated a taboo in the clan and was punished to be confined to Cangyunzhou.

Therefore, no matter how beyond his comprehension, Li Ji'an had no doubt about the truth of Tong Yaoyao's words.

Then Li Ji'an took out the longevity pill.

This move was highly praised by Tong Yaoyao.

Since her mother was punished by the clan, she was powerless to do anything about many things. She could only ensure her own needs, but she was unable to provide Zhao Shuyao with resources beyond her status and position.

After all, the Chamber of Commerce values profit over separation.

I strongly oppose behaviors that put emotions above interests.

"You are a good guy who is grateful for the kindness you have received. Aunt Yao likes you more and more." Tong Yaoyao patted Li Ji'an's shoulder and said seriously.

Li Ji'an smiled and said nothing more. He personally helped Zhao Shuyao take the longevity pill and helped her refine and absorb it.

After the fine longevity elixir was completely refined, Zhao Shuyao's face showed more vitality and she felt much better.

Just when Li Ji'an confirmed the efficacy of the medicine, Xiao Qiao sent a message saying that Liu Jingchun was coming to pick up the pill.

Li Ji'an then said goodbye and returned to Li's house.
