Immortals Step into Heaven

Sun Ruhai took a sip of tea and said gravely, "Fellow Daoist Sun, this story begins a year ago. My grandson and second son were returning with foundation-building pills purchased from the Danqing Sect market when they were ambushed by demonic cultivators. While my grandson escaped with serious injuries, my second son and nearly twenty other members of the clan were annihilated." As Sun Ruhai spoke of this, his eyes welled up, his heart filled with grief and indignation. "Those demonic cultivators were truly ruthless. Our Sun family had no grudge against them, yet they were so cruel!"

Then, we activated the family formation and had Sun Ruhu take the foundation-building pill. A few months ago, Ruhu successfully established his foundation.

My Sun family activated a formation and allowed our disciples to go out. Unexpectedly, several of the disciples who went out never returned. Later, more than a dozen disciples met the same fate. Later, Ruhu and I disguised ourselves as disciples and went out.

However, he was ambushed by a demon cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage. That demon cultivator's magic power was extremely strong, far surpassing that of cultivators of the same level. Sun Ruhai recalled with lingering fear, "When that demon cultivator appeared, I felt a strong pressure and knew that something was wrong."

If Ru Hu and I were not both cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, we would have probably been killed.

After that evil cultivator retreated, I sent people to ask for help from your clan. Now, no one in my Sun family dares to go out!

Fellow Daoist Wang, do you have any good ideas?

Wang Ren pondered for a moment and said, "Fellow Daoist Sun, I don't have a particularly good plan at the moment. The enemy is in the dark, while we are in the light. We don't know how many of them there are, or how many Foundation Establishment cultivators they have. The sect sent us here to investigate!"

I think it's better to stay here for a month and see if the demon monk will show up. If he does, we can follow the clues to find out.

Daoist Wang, what if the demon cultivator doesn't show up this month? Sun Ruhai asked worriedly, his brow furrowed in anxiety. What should we do? We can't keep this stalemate going on forever.

If they don't show up, it means they might not be strong, so we can go out and look for them. What do you think, Fellow Daoist Wang?

Sun Ruhai said solemnly, "I'll do as Fellow Daoist Wang says!"

Qunfeng, please arrange a place for the young friends from Danqing Sect to stay. Fellow Daoist Wang and I have something important to discuss.

OK! grandfather!

Fellow Taoists, please follow me. Zheng Yuan and others will follow Sun Qunfeng.

"Fellow Daoist Sun, you escaped from the clutches of the demonic cultivators. Do you know what methods they used? Could you tell me a little?" Senior Sister Liu asked with a smile, her eyes revealing concern and caution.

Fellow Daoist Liu, if you want to know, I dare not hide anything from you. At that time, I was also retreating under the protection of others, fleeing all the way. However, I was still caught up by a demon cultivator at the thirteenth level of Qi Refining.

"That demon cultivator's blood power was incredibly powerful. When we clashed with him, I could feel the blood and qi surging through my body at every moment, causing extreme discomfort. If I hadn't cultivated at the thirteenth level of Qi Refining for so long, and possessed a greater depth of mana than that demon cultivator, I would have been defeated long ago," Sun Qunfeng said with lingering fear. Thinking back on it now, he still felt a chill.

And that demon cultivator's blood sword was incredibly strange. Wounds sustained by it were extremely difficult to heal, and the bleeding continued. If I hadn't been carrying a large amount of hemostatic pills, I might have been drained of blood by that demon cultivator and bled to death. Sun Qunfeng couldn't help but feel a pang of fear as he spoke of this.

After hearing this, everyone's expressions became more serious.

This demon cultivator is truly bizarre. Does Fellow Daoist Liu have any method to restrain him? Senior Sister Liu asked calmly, secretly plotting a countermeasure in her mind.

"Fellow Daoist Liu, I don't have any good ideas. Please prepare some more hemostatic pills!" Sun Qunfeng said helplessly, with a worried look on his face.

"Fellow Daoist Sun, how did you escape?" Senior Sister Liu asked.

Dissatisfied with what Fellow Daoist Liu said, "I relied on a talisman to severely injure that thirteenth-level Qi training demon cultivator. If that demon cultivator hadn't possessed a defensive spiritual weapon, I might have killed him on the spot." Sun Qunfeng said with regret, his heart filled with resentment. He was just this close to avenging his people.

"A talisman?" "Fellow Daoist Sun, what is this?" Zheng Yuan asked curiously.

Everyone was stunned when they heard Zheng Yuan's question. This guy didn't even know what a talisman was! Senior Sister Liu glared at Zheng Yuan fiercely. This guy was really shameless. As a disciple of the Danqing Sect, he didn't even know what a talisman was! Don't you know why you shouldn't ask my senior brothers and sisters privately? Now you ask an outsider, where will we put our dignity? Liu Pingping was secretly angry.

Seeing everyone's expressions, Zheng Yuan felt embarrassed. He rubbed his head, a faint blush spreading across his face. He wondered if he had asked something he shouldn't have. What were all those expressions? Why were they all so serious and dissatisfied?

Sun Qunfeng looked Zheng Yuan up and down, and seeing that Zheng Yuan had only reached the eighth level of Qi Refining, he understood that this person probably didn't have much experience, so he said, "Fellow Daoist Zheng, talismans are divided into talismans for the Foundation Establishment Period and talismans for the Golden Core Period. Talismans for the Foundation Establishment Period can only be refined by those who have reached the late Foundation Establishment Period."

Sun Qunfeng paused, and then said: The talisman of the cultivator in the late foundation building period is also a blow that he sealed. You can understand that the talisman is the full-strength blow of the cultivator in the late foundation building period.

However, there is some water in this. After all, cultivators in the late stage of foundation building have only just reached the conditions for refining talismans. The talismans of foundation building cultivators are disposable and will be gone after use.

The talismans refined by Jindan cultivators can be used multiple times. This is because Jindan cultivators have immense mana. Qi training cultivators like us simply cannot unleash the full power of a Jindan cultivator's talisman, so we can only activate a portion of it each time to fight the enemy until the talisman's mana is depleted. Sun Qunfeng patiently explained.

Zheng Yuan was shocked after hearing this, and thought to himself, this talisman is so powerful, then with it, wouldn't it be possible to sweep the Qi Refining Stage? Just when he wanted to ask fellow Daoist Sun again,

"Junior Brother Zheng, there's no need to be so surprised. Activating a talisman requires a lot of mana and time. If the enemy doesn't activate your talisman yet, they still have plenty of opportunities to kill you." Liu Pingping said calmly, a serious and admonishing look in her eyes.

"Thank you, Senior Sister Liu. Fellow Daoist Sun, for letting me know. I've been practicing diligently within the sect for years, so I'm sorry for my limited knowledge." Zheng Yuan said with a simple smile, a little apologetically.

Everyone just smiled slightly, and soon Sun Qunfeng led everyone to a courtyard. The courtyard was quite large, with a symmetrical layout from north to south, a landscape and flower pond in the middle, and green trees all around. It was quite a beautiful scenery.

Fellow Daoists, this courtyard is where you will live. You can choose your own room. If you need anything, please tell the maid outside the courtyard. I will be leaving now.

After Sun Qunfeng left, everyone started to choose their rooms. Zheng Yuan didn't have any requirements for the rooms, so he just let them choose first.

Senior Sister Liu chose the main room, which was a spacious, bright and elegantly decorated room. Looking out the window, one could see the mountains, rivers and flowers in the center of the courtyard, which was a pleasant scenery.

Two of the three brothers chose the room on the right, which was adjacent to each other.
