Chapter 2566: Qi Refiner

However, this was obviously very useful to the uninformed Hou Sheng, who could not help but frown slightly.

"Why let him go?"

Jiang Fan shook his head: "Answer me first. If I am satisfied with some of the questions, I will naturally tell you what you are interested in."

Hou Sheng thought for a moment and suddenly chuckled: "Since you didn't catch the King of England, it's unlikely that you will catch him again. After all, no one can find the place where he is going."

Jiang Fan didn't know why, but a strange thought suddenly arose in his heart, and he stared at the other person with a hint of weirdness: "Three Immortals Mountain? It's not a great place there."

Hou Sheng was really shocked this time: "You...what did you say?"

Jiang Fan took the time to do a good job and showed a trace of ridicule: "Sheng Hou, do you think you are the only one who knows about Sanxian Mountain? Tell you, I also know that Penglai raises spiritual plants, Yingzhou raises strange beasts, the abbot refines elixirs, and Sanxian Mountain can Creating a mirage illusion, the Ling Sect is entrenched, refining elixirs for heaven for heaven and humans to practice..."

He spoke slowly about the information from Hu Ying and the fifth elder. With each word, Hou Sheng's face became paler, and by the end his face was bloodless.

"...You, you...how is it possible, why would you..."

Jiang Fan stared at him: "Interesting, it seems that you know a lot of things I said, but some of them are not clear. It seems that you are not an important role."

Facing Jiang Fan's slightly mocking expression, Hou Sheng's fingers trembled slightly. What the young man revealed in his soft whisper were all the top secrets in the world, and he definitely knew much more than he knew.

At this moment, fear swept through the body more and more, not only from the fear of being caught inexplicably, but also from the unknown and the unpredictability of the person in front of him.

"Aren't you still willing to say it?" Jiang Fan's lips curved with a cold arc: "You are a person who doesn't know how to appreciate others. You are far worse than your senior brother Xu Fu."

This sentence shocked Hou Sheng and he lost his voice: "How could you know our relationship? When we parted, we agreed not to reveal each other..."

Jiang Fan's heart was moved, but his expression was very calm: "There are never absolute secrets in this world, so your senior brother is much better than you. At least he knows how to judge the situation."

"Who...are you?" Hou Sheng finally couldn't help but blurt out and asked.

Jiang Fan sneered: "Hou Sheng, let me say it again, understand the situation. It is me who is asking you. If you answer well, you are fighting for your own survival. If you are not satisfied with the answer, I am too lazy to waste time with you. Time. One last time, I ask, you answer.”

His eyes began to become cold, and Hou Sheng took a breath of cold air, clearly understanding that the other party did not have much patience.

Facing such a person who knew more than himself, a powerful opponent who could not resist, Hou Sheng finally gave a bitter smile and his shoulders slumped.

Jiang Fan knew that he gave up.

"...A certain Hou Sheng is a Qi Refiner. Yes, he is the younger brother of Qin State Master Xu Fu..."

Jiang Fan said slowly: "Tell me about your detailed relationship and why. We agreed not to disclose it to each other."

Hou Sheng sighed: "It all starts with our acquaintance. Xu Fu and I were both students of Wei Hong, the best qi refiner in the world..."

As he narrated, Jiang Fan gradually learned about a once-prosperous warlock sect, and learned about his relationship with Xu Fu, but some things were unexpected. Jiang Fan abandoned Hou Sheng's emotional words and summarized it based on his narrative.

In the early days of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the world was initially settled, and martial arts was recovering at a rapid speed. This process naturally gave rise to many sects.

There is one faction among them, called Qi Refiners.

The so-called Qi Refiner refers to a practitioner, and is generally regarded as a Taoist priest. However, Qi refiners are not necessarily Taoist priests, but there are some Taoist priests who can be called Qi refiners. They cultivate the five qi in the chest and refine elixirs to assist their practice. They attempt to nourish the five qi internally and use the elixir externally to refine the golden elixir in the body, so as to improve their cultivation and achieve immortality.

Due to the ultimate goal of cultivating qi for longevity, qi masters have been widely sought after since their birth, and there are still countless practitioners today. In fact, the reason why Ba Qing monopolizes cinnabar is also related to the prosperity of this sect. Their demand for cinnabar is too huge. With the support of countless princes and nobles who are greedy for immortality, it has become one of the most important factors in making the Ba family rich. One, the influence of this faction is evident.

So among the Qi Refiners, many outstanding figures have naturally been born, and the leader among them is Wei Hong.

Wei Hong was born after the Three Hundred Princes Rebellion and before the current Qin territory was settled. If he had been alive, he would have been around 220 years old. This person once stood at the top of the Qi Refiners and was said to be miraculous.

Forty years ago, Wei Hong accepted two closed disciples, who later became his most proud disciples, namely Xu Fu and Hou Sheng.

Xu Fu was only forty years old at that time. He was still in the prime of life, but he had already traveled all over the world, and even went to sea many times to search for immortality.

After getting no results, he finally became a disciple of Wei Hong, hoping to practice his alchemy method to extend his life and continue his pursuit.

Hou Sheng started ten years later than Xu Fu. Hou Sheng was arrogant and competitive. He had always been very dissatisfied with Xu Fu, whom his master said was the best, and always wanted to fight him secretly or openly.

Unfortunately, Xu Fu only wanted to live forever and had no intention of fighting. Even after joining Wei Hong's sect, he is still out all year round, searching for traces of immortality.

But even so, Xu Fu still became an alchemist at the age of sixty, and he was recognized as a top alchemist, even touted as the number one by countless people.

Later, Wei Hong publicly announced that Xu Fu would inherit his mantle.

This made Hou Sheng extremely angry. In jealousy and envy, he believed that Xu Fu's achievements should come from the overseas immortal mountains, because Xu Fu had always been thinking about the Three Immortal Mountains and had received the Three Immortals' Notes from Wei Hong.

Therefore, Hou Sheng asked Xu Fu for the notes and wanted to go to sea to visit the immortal mountains.

Xu Fu, who knew the dangers of the sea, did not want his junior brother to take risks, and once rejected him. Hou Sheng thought that it was just because Xu Fu was selfish.

So he secretly copied the Three Immortals' Notes and went to sea privately.

Unexpectedly, the sea was indeed extremely dangerous, and he had indeed experienced countless life and death. The most dangerous time ten years ago, if it were not for the sudden appearance of the Dragon King of the Sea, he would have turned into a dead soul in the sea.

In order to repay Hai Yusheng, Hou Sheng used his master's alchemy to refine many precious medicines for him, and the two of them became friends.

Later, the Dragon King of the Sea sent a giant sea ship to support Hou Sheng's fifth voyage.

Unexpectedly, Hou Sheng actually saw the Immortal Mountain this time.

Based on his description, Jiang Fan thought that it was not like Yingzhou and Penglai, and it was most likely the abbot who was good at refining pills and weapons.

However, he was turned away, and after begging desperately, he did not expect that the immortal really came out to respond to him.
