The original repairer

Use the Soul Refining Hammer to hammer once every ten days. It takes forty hammers to break through the Soul Refining Technique for the first time. It takes about four hundred days, or more than a year, before there is a chance to refine a top-grade elixir.

Shi Chen already had a direction. With a happy mood, he packed up the retreat room and decided to come out.

After refining the elixir, he came out of seclusion, burned incense and took a bath, cooked six side dishes, made a jar of spiritual wine, and called Huang Qi's brother and sister, as well as Xu Zijun who was disguised as a man.

This meal was a great pleasure for both the host and the guests.

Ten years had already passed since entering this world, and his cultivation path was well on track. Resources were plentiful, and opportunities hadn't been missed. Now thirty-five years old, Shi Chen felt he could never return to Earth, but being here wasn't so bad; at least he was enjoying a comfortable and carefree life.

The day after the banquet, Shi Chen began to study again.

Now that he had obtained the jade slips that contained the basics of a hundred arts, he was going to start practicing these skills. Even if he could not master all of them, he would at least learn all aspects and understand the tricks involved. This way, he would not be deceived when he went out.

The first thing to read is the Collection of Hundred Arts, which is the experience of the masters of the Five Elements Sect throughout the ages, as well as some notes and ideas.

After five months of dedicated practice, he had read all the jade slips in the ring, and his alchemy skills had greatly improved. He had also dabbled in several other skills. He had already acquired the basics and had reached the entry level.

In the middle of this month, shocking news came from the market.

A cultivator found an immortal palace in the Thousand Poison Pond, which contained elixirs, magic weapons, elixirs, spiritual fruits and inheritance.

However, with the protection of the formation, the large formation outside the immortal palace cannot be broken even by the Lord of the Poison Pond Immortal City who has reached the perfection of the Golden Core.

Now, within a ten thousand li radius of the Poison Pond Immortal City, cultivators who had received the news were rushing to the Thousand Poison Pond. When Shi Chen heard the news, he thought the cave he had entered had been exposed. After making detailed inquiries, he realized that it was not the cave he had entered.

I don’t know which cultivator was so lucky to find such a fairy palace, but it was exposed. I really don’t know whether it is lucky or unfortunate.

Huang Qi and Huang Ziying came to find Shi Chen, and Xu Zijun also came with them. Shi Chen was full of doubts.

Even though he was already quite familiar with Xu Zijun and there was no conflict of interest between them, the fact that the three of them were discussing something with someone else present was a bit tricky.

"Don't look at me like that. I may know much more than you do about the matter you are discussing right now. If you don't want to know more, I'll leave now." After Xu Zijun finished speaking, he looked to the side, meaning that he didn't want to pay attention to Shi Chen.

"Junior Brother Shi, Fellow Daoist Xu does know more about the Immortal Palace. We can now cooperate with each other and strive to gain more benefits in the Immortal Palace." Huang Qi said with a smile.

"Yes, Junior Brother Shi, it will be much safer if we work together with a cultivator who has reached the perfection of Qi training." Huang Ziying said seriously.

"After hearing the news, I was really tempted, but then I thought, in fact, we don't need to take risks. Even if it is the immortal palace of a cultivator in the God Transformation Stage, no matter how many treasures are inside, it cannot be as safe as ours. The most important thing is that our cultivation is too low. Among the cultivators who heard the news, there are famous Jindan and Yuanying cultivators who went to the Thousand Poison Pond. There is a whirlpool over there, and those who fall into it may not come out alive." Shi Chen expressed his opinion.

"I've thought about all this, and I still want to go there and take a look. Not to mention getting a chance to obtain treasures, but just witnessing such a big event and increasing my experience would be good." Huang Qi had stayed in the market town for several years and really wanted to go out and explore the world.

"I still say the same thing, safety first! With our current conditions, as long as we practice in the market, the golden elixir will not be a problem." Shi Chen said with a frown.

"If you don't want to go, then don't go. Why are you saying so many demoralizing words?" Xu Zijun said angrily, "I asked them to go with me. Even if we don't participate in the treasure hunt, witnessing such a big event can increase our experience. Just admit that you are afraid of death, what else are you looking for excuses for? Don't you know that you are so scared of death that you hide underground and dare not move?" Xu Zijun said angrily.

Huang Qi and his sister seemed to be thinking about something, and there was a lot of resentment in these words.

Shi Chen understood the implication. It seemed that she was among the three groups of cultivators who were being chased after the last flying boat accident.

Glancing at Xu Zijun, Shi Chen said calmly, "I don't recommend getting involved in this. I've been to the Thousand Poison Pond and know the conditions there. A cultivator in the early stages of Qi Refining will become unconscious after entering the mist for about an hour. With our current cultivation level, we can only last two hours in there at most. Fellow Daoist Xu is more powerful, so he'd be lucky if he could last three hours. The Immortal Palace has been exposed, and the cultivators who go there are all kinds of people. With our cultivation level, we'd just be cannon fodder. Even if we were to enter the Immortal Palace and obtain the treasures, we wouldn't be able to keep them. They would be kidnapped and all would be lost. In the end, it would be all for nothing, and we might even lose our lives. I won't risk my life for such an extremely dangerous opportunity."

"If you don't want to go, then don't go. We'll go by ourselves! When we get the treasure, no one will come up to me and beg me for help." Xu Zijun said angrily.

The three of them took a flying boat to the Poison Pond Fairy City, leaving only Shi Chen in the market town.

He had been there before, and it hadn't been too dangerous for him then. Now, the place was a hodgepodge of good and bad people, gathering many cultivators from within a thousand miles. His own cultivation wasn't even at the foundation stage, so even if he had the opportunity there, he would be someone else's meal.

No one knew how things would develop. In the first few days, Huang Ziying sent news through audio talismans, but after entering the Thousand Poison Pond, there was no news.

Shi Chen waited patiently for more than half a month, feeling uneasy and unable to even refine the pills.

Thirty-five days passed, and there was only news in the first ten days for the three of them. The news seemed to have disappeared in the next twenty days.

Really worried, Shi Chen had no choice but to take a flying boat and head to the Thousand Poison Pond again.

There are now several times more cultivators in the Poison Pond Immortal City than before. Jindan cultivators often appear, and there are also Yuanying cultivators.

Shi Chen was very low-key. He rented a relatively cheap cave in the fairy city, which only had one wooden house.

After three days, he heard a lot of news in the restaurants and tea shops in the city, including news about the immortal palace, famous cultivators, famous calamity cultivators, monsters and treasures.

Perhaps many of them are just passed down from person to person, and there is still some value in them. At least we know that the Immortal Palace is still in the process of breaking the protective formation, and no cultivator has entered the Immortal Palace yet.

This is good news, which means that the three of them will not be robbed or killed.

Shi Chen teamed up with other cultivators and went to the Thousand Poison Pond several times to investigate. They could only observe from afar outside the mist. Each entrance was guarded by a Foundation Establishment team, and the Qi Condensation cultivators were blocked from the main entrance by the mist. However, the mist covered a large area, and it was possible to bypass the several main entrances and enter the Thousand Poison Pond at any time.

Still no trace of the three of them could be found, and no news came from the sound talisman.
