Immortals Step into Heaven

The deacon shook his head slightly and explained patiently, "Junior Brother Zheng, you don't know that it was indeed thirty contribution points to cancel a mission in the past, but now there are too many people canceling missions."

The sect wants to prevent people from accepting tasks at will and then easily withdrawing from them, which would affect others from accepting tasks!

That's why the contribution points for returning tasks were increased. This way, disciples can accept tasks according to their abilities.

After hearing this, Zheng Yuan sighed helplessly and said with a depressed look on his face, "I've suffered a big loss this time."

After a moment's silence, he raised his head again and said to the deacon disciple in a helpless tone, "Senior brother, please help me withdraw from this task."

There is no point in taking this task if you can't complete it. It's better to quit early and do other tasks.

The deacon disciple chuckled and said, "Junior Brother Zheng is really open-minded." After that, he handed the object in his hand to Junior Brother Zheng and said, "This is your identity token. You must keep it well."

Zheng Yuan slowly extended his hand and took the token. A faint smile appeared on his face, and he said softly, "Thank you, Senior Brother." His eyes fell on the token, and he saw that the contribution points on it had changed to 2,080.

Afterwards, Zheng Yuan put the token into the storage bag and left the mission hall.

When Zheng Yuan returned to Danhuo Pavilion, a familiar voice came from afar.

"Junior apprentice brother Zheng, you're back." Xiao Yuan had a faint smile on his face.

Zheng Yuan looked over, his eyes filled with joy as he said happily, "Uncle Xiao, you're back too." His words were filled with excitement and warmth, as if he had met a relative he hadn't seen for a long time.

Uncle Xiao, I have been worried about you a lot during this period.

"Junior Brother Zheng, you're so thoughtful. Uncle is doing well, don't worry. Have you been diligently studying alchemy these days? Don't let other things distract you from your alchemy skills!"

Zheng Yuan has never dared to forget the teachings of his uncle. Over the years, he has always worked diligently and devoted a lot of time and energy to studying alchemy.

Whenever he had free time, he would plunge into the alchemy room, repeatedly studying the methods of alchemy, striving to make progress in the art of alchemy.

Uncle, I have something that I'm very confused about. I wonder if I could ask you, uncle? Would you be willing to help me solve this problem?

"What's the matter?" "Just tell me, nephew Zheng." The uncle nodded slightly, a look of approval in his eyes.

It's like this, Uncle-Master. My nephew originally wanted to purchase a Foundation Establishment Pill recipe so that he could study it more and improve his alchemy skills.

However, when the nephew went to Tianbao Pavilion to inquire, he was told by the people in Tianbao Pavilion that it was impossible to buy the foundation-building pill formula.

The nephew was very distressed, wondering if his uncle had any way to obtain the foundation-building pill formula. Zheng Yuan looked at Uncle Xiao expectantly, his eyes longing for an answer.

After hearing this, Xiao Yuan pondered for a moment and slowly spoke. The spiritual herbs required for the Foundation Establishment Pill were extremely difficult to find. Most of the spiritual herbs were cultivated by each sect themselves, but the supply was limited and could only be distributed to a small number of people. This led to the strict control of the Foundation Establishment Pill within the sect.

Because of this, the elixirs for foundation-building pills are extremely difficult to find outside. In order to ensure their own interests, the major sects will naturally not allow the recipes for foundation-building pills to be bought and sold at will outside.

Otherwise, if a group of casual cultivators got the foundation-building pill formula, they would have to keep a close eye on the spiritual medicine gardens of each sect every day and try every possible way to steal the spiritual medicines. In this way, each sect would be in endless trouble.

The Foundation Establishment Pill formula has strict regulations in the Danqing Sect. Only alchemists at the Foundation Establishment stage can view it. Moreover, those who view it must swear an oath and never teach it privately. Xiao Yuan said calmly.

After hearing this, Zheng Yuan was a little dazed, with a hint of loss in his eyes.

Seeing this, Xiao Yuan said, "Junior Brother Zheng, you don't have to be like this. If the Yunlong Sect ruins are found, not only will they contain the foundation-building pill formula, but they might even find the foundation-building elixir."

After hearing this, Zheng Yuan felt a glimmer of hope in his heart.

Xiao Yuan went on to say, "Junior Brother Zheng, although I cannot tell you the recipe for the Foundation Establishment Pill, I can tell you one of the main ingredients in refining the Foundation Establishment Pill."

Having said that, Xiao Yuan paused for a moment, then slowly uttered three words, (Divine Mind Flower). He continued to explain that the Divine Mind Flower is the main ingredient of the Foundation Establishment Pill, and the key to the breakthrough in foundation establishment lies in the breakthrough of spiritual consciousness.

The spiritual sense of a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage can only explore a few dozen feet at most, but after breaking through the Foundation Establishment Stage, the spiritual sense of a cultivator can explore ten miles away. The difference between the two is huge.

After hearing this, Zheng Yuan's face was overjoyed and he quickly bowed and said, "Thank you, uncle master, for your help!"

Xiao Yuan waved his hand and said, "I've only told you what I can tell you. As for when the Yunlong Sect ruins will be opened, and whether you can obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill Formula and the Divine Mind Flower from them, it all depends on your luck."

"Uncle Master, now that Zheng Yuan has received the news about the foundation-building process, he must strive for it with all his might. Even if he fails, Zheng Yuan will never resign himself to his fate!" Zheng Yuan's eyes were firm, his tone filled with determination.

Xiao Yuan nodded slightly and said, "We cultivators should strive for immortality. If we hear the truth in the morning, we can die in the evening! The path of cultivation is inherently full of difficulties and obstacles. Without such determination and courage, how can we carve out a place for ourselves on this long journey to immortality? Since you have this ambition, then go for it. No matter what the outcome, as long as you have tried your best, you will have no regrets."

Zheng Yuan lowered his head and said slowly with a very respectful attitude, "Junior disciple will definitely remember the teachings of my uncle and will not dare to slack off in the slightest."

Uncle Xiao nodded slightly, and said with satisfaction in his eyes that it was very good that his nephew had such awareness.

Zheng Yuan invited Xiao Yuan to drink and eat meat in the evening.

A few days later, Zheng Yuan arrived at the Mission Hall. He carefully searched through the numerous missions and ultimately selected two. The first was to serve as a law enforcement disciple stationed at Yunshan Market. This mission would last for a month, maintaining order in Yunshan Market and earning 100 contribution points.

The second was to track down the ruins of the Yunlong Sect, a quest that would earn him 600 contribution points. The Yunlong Sect ruins were also a place he wanted to visit, and this quest was also quite satisfying.

Zheng Yuan left Danqing Sect and set out on the road to Yunshan Market.

He arrived at Yunshan Market and headed straight for the Yunshan Market Law Enforcement Hall. The hall was located in the heart of Yunshan Market, boasting magnificent architecture and a remarkable aura. Zheng Yuan arrived at the main entrance to the hall and saw two cultivators, each at the thirteenth level of Qi Refining, standing solemnly at the entrance. They stood tall and straight, their eyes piercing.

Zheng Yuan took out his identity token and handed it to the two deacons for inspection. They took the token and examined it carefully. After confirming that the identity token was correct, one of them nodded slightly and said, "Junior Brother Zheng, please follow me."

Zheng Yuan followed the deacon and slowly entered the hall. The hall was solemn and rigorous, exuding a solemn atmosphere.
