Fairy bestows immortality

"I wonder if I can fight against a ferocious beast at the Qi Sea Realm?"

Su Yun was sitting cross-legged by a stream, listening to the babbling water as he regulated his breathing and pondered.

His current strength and positioning are somewhat unclear.

Those cultivators below the Qi Sea level can be easily crushed.

However, as a cultivator at the Qi Sea Realm, he had only fought the third brother before, and only managed to fight him to a draw after ambushing and injuring him.

"The cultivation technique that the third brother practiced that day was probably at the lower or middle level of the Xuan rank, no higher than that."

Su Yun speculated in his mind.

Most of the cultivation techniques that ordinary cultivators can obtain are of the same grade.

Because of their status and position, they cannot reach the higher levels unless they have a special encounter and cultivate a certain technique that surpasses the others.

But such existences are rare.

He estimated that he could at most fight to a draw with a cultivator who practiced a mid-grade Xuan-level cultivation technique.

Even someone like He Wenzhu, who cultivates to the high level of the Xuan rank, is still no match for him.

After all, he hasn't reached the Qi Sea realm yet, and the gap is still quite large.

"If there is an opportunity, we need to find a cultivator of this strength to test our combat power. However, for now, we should focus on hunting ferocious beasts."

After Su Yun finished his meditation, he got up and went deep into the Hundred Thousand Mountains again to begin a new round of hunting.

Over three days, he acquired hundreds of beast essences.

There are over a hundred of them above the seventh rank!

"The resources I've exchanged are enough for me to cultivate for a while."

If it weren't for the fact that the spiritual energy within the beast's essence contained more impurities, he could have directly absorbed and used it.

As he pondered this, Su Yun left the Ten Thousand Mountains.

but.

Just as I reached the exit of the mountain range, I saw a familiar figure.

Ahead, down the hillside.

On a rock.

A man dressed in brocade robes, who looked to be around fifty years old, sat cross-legged on it.

He was of medium height, with a beard that reached his chest, and possessed an imposing presence.

Su Yun stopped in her tracks, her eyes slowly narrowing.

Isn't this Elder Xuan of the Tiger Mountain Sect whom I met in the Trial Realm?

He hadn't seen this person since the previous trial, and so much time had passed that he had almost forgotten about him, thinking that the person had given up on attacking him.

And today, I actually saw this person here!

It's definitely not a coincidence...

"Su Yun, after several near misses, we finally meet again."

Elder Xuan slowly opened his eyes and looked at Su Yun coldly.

He had targeted Su Yun several times before, but Su Yun had always managed to escape, leaving him a step too late.

This time we finally caught up! We waited here patiently, and finally this kid appeared!

Several times we brushed past each other?

Su Yun's heart gradually grew cold.

So, the other party has tried to attack me more than once, but just hasn't had the chance yet.

He sneered and said, "Is it really necessary? So much time has passed, are those three disciples of your Tiger Mountain Sect so important that you absolutely must seek revenge?"

Elder Xuan said calmly, "Those three are certainly important."

"However, it is not worth my time."

"The one I truly care about is you."

As he spoke, he slowly stood up.

"At the seventh level of Body Refinement, you can withstand high-grade spiritual weapons. Although I was only at the eighth level of Body Refinement at the time, it was still incredible. Can you tell me what kind of extraordinary encounter you had?"

"Furthermore, you are already a mid-level alchemist. What exactly did Alchemist Li Changhong teach you that allowed you to be certified as a mid-level alchemist while still in the Body Refinement Realm?"

"I'm really curious about you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Yun's eyes narrowed.

He was still calm in the previous paragraph.

But what did this old guy mean by his last sentence?

He knew that he had spoken with Alchemist Li Changhong within the Tianyang Sect and even received certification as a mid-level Alchemist?!

Elder Xuan smiled mysteriously and said, "Surprised?"

“I have close friends in the Tianyang Sect.”

A smirk played on his lips as he approached Su Yun step by step, his eyes gleaming with greed.

"They even entrusted me with the task of taking you down and thoroughly investigating your secrets."
