From a young medicine seller to a Taoist master

It took me a month to find someone.

You are just a junior, and you can’t kill me, the evil cultivator laughed unscrupulously.

Don't be so presumptuous, I yelled at him.

After that, I used the Earth Spike spell to stab him, but the evil cultivator dodged it easily and laughed at my low-level spell. My face darkened and I used the Fireball Talisman. A huge fireball attacked him. Seeing this, the evil cultivator raised his mouth slightly, and actually reached out to grab the fireball, and then threw it back. I dodged quickly, but the fireball still rubbed the corner of my clothes and burned a big hole. Damn it! I gritted my teeth secretly, this evil cultivator was so powerful.

I steadied myself and locked my eyes on the evil cultivator. I saw that he had a black sword in his hand, emitting a strange aura.

I took a deep breath and decided to use my last trick. I muttered something, put my hands together, and a dazzling light emerged from my body.

My body became hard. Most of the spells I learned were defensive, and there were very few offensive means. Flying swords were also very expensive, and I couldn't afford them at all, so I could only fight in close combat.

The evil cultivator obviously knew what I was planning and took out a flying sword to attack me.

He was manipulating the flying sword and doing some exercises beside me, while keeping a distance from me.

after a while

At this moment, I felt a wave of fatigue coming over me, and my spiritual power was almost exhausted. The evil cultivator walked towards me step by step, with greed in his eyes.

Am I going to die here? I won't accept this...

He threw a fireball at me, but I couldn't dodge and was blown up. The flying sword took the opportunity to shoot out and pierced my abdomen.

I felt a huge pain, and I used all my strength to use an earth shield and ran away.

As a result, not only did the mission fail, but the possibility of building a foundation was also lost.

After that, I left the sect and returned to the mortal world. My parents had passed away. Although I hadn't seen them for more than 20 years, I still remember that it was the most carefree time of my life. It was a pity that I didn't get to see my parents for the last time. Then I married and had children and lived the life of a rich man until I died.

If possible, I would rather not cultivate immortality and just accompany my parents through this peaceful life. I am willing to exchange everything I have for this opportunity, but the reality does not allow me to fulfill my wish.

The path to becoming an immortal is full of dangers and challenges. I may lose a lot of things, even my most cherished family.

But I can't give up, because only through cultivating immortality can I change my destiny and protect the ones I love.

But when it all ended, it was like a dream. Looking back, I got nothing, but I don’t regret it.

Because I know that this will make my parents live better, I can cultivate immortality, and the sect can provide some assistance to my family, which can bring them a better life. But now, I can only silently lie in front of the tomb.

Finish

After reading it, Yingchuan felt a little sad. This cultivator gained nothing from practicing for immortality. However, he got a general idea of what it was like to cultivate for immortality from it.

Then, he looked at the book titled “The Secret of Thick Earth” (a random name), and felt excited.

He opened the book and checked it out. It was a book on basic exercises suitable for cultivating earth spirit roots.

The book said that this world was full of spiritual energy, and anyone with spiritual roots could feel it. He did as the book said.

At the beginning, he felt nothing, but after a quarter of an hour, he gradually felt a surge of fresh air around him, which should be the spiritual energy.

Yingchuan felt very happy, as this showed that he had spiritual roots and could practice.

Afterwards, he tried to draw the qi into his body. He failed several times at the beginning, but he did not lose heart. Finally, after several failures, he succeeded in drawing the qi into his body.

The spiritual energy was controlled by Yingchuan and passed through the meridians of his body like a fish entering. During this process, he felt a cool feeling flowing through his body, which was very comfortable.

Then, something strange happened. When I led it to the location of the elixir and just wanted to refine it, the meridians in my body started to compete with each other. It was very painful, so I ended my first practice.

He opened his eyes, some blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and his face turned pale. At this moment, he felt that his blood and qi were in disorder.

He tried to calm his blood and qi and soon recovered.

This is probably because I don’t have earth spirit roots.

He was somewhat uninterested, after all, the technique was right in front of him, but I couldn't practice it. For the first time in his life, he experienced the feeling of a eunuch going to a brothel.

He looked at the small bag and thought it should be a storage bag.

After carefully checking the entire tomb, he found that there was indeed nothing valuable in it. Then, he left the tomb and returned the same way.

In the next few days, he went to relatively safe places on the map to collect herbs, and he collected quite a lot, which was almost enough.

Afterwards, they returned to the place where they had dispersed before and found that the old man had returned. He stood there quietly, his eyes calm and deep, as if he was thinking about something. His figure seemed a little lonely.

He briefly recounted his previous experiences, but did not mention the ancient tomb.

Then, the father and son went back.

It is better to put points into strength. Since his body is also growing, the increase in strength is even greater. Adding five points to strength will enable him to lift objects weighing thousands of pounds, easily bend iron bars, and break bones.

However, the old man's health has been getting worse over the past two years.

Five years later

The boy knelt silently in front of a new grave. He was very strong and tried hard to hold back the urge to cry. This was because it would allow the old man to rest assured that he had grown up.

Old man, don't worry down there. I will definitely give you money, so much that you won't be able to spend it all over there. I am also going to pursue my own life, and there is a possibility that I may not come back. Please forgive my unfilial descendants.

After saying this, the young man kowtowed three times to the ground.

Blood flowed from his forehead. His current physical strength had already surpassed that of humans, which showed how great the force he had used was.

After he packed up his things and prepared everything he needed, he resolutely embarked on this journey of seeking immortality.

He carried a backpack filled with necessary items and tools.

He was wearing simple but new clothes, which marked the real beginning of his new life.

His steps were firm and steady, and each step was full of determination and faith. He knew the road ahead was rough, but he was not afraid, because he had a persistent pursuit of immortality in his heart.

Behind him, he left a series of deep and shallow footprints, as if announcing his determination and courage to the world. His figure gradually went farther and farther, and finally disappeared into the distant skyline, leaving only tranquility and mystery.

(Sorry, everyone, the outline is being sorted out, trust me.

My thoughts have been a bit messy these past two days so this chapter is relatively short.

This is my first time writing a fantasy novel, so some of the settings may not be logically correct, please forgive me.)
