Immortal Palace Longevity

With a slight glance and retracting his gaze, Liu Yu was calm and composed, and the spell in his hand did not stop for a moment.

As a professional alchemist, he did not like to be disturbed when refining pills, and only focused on one thing.

As time passed, the light blue flame in the fire door gradually decreased, and the flame gradually became weaker.

The medicinal fragrance that permeated the room became more and more intense.

"Almost done."

This thought flashed through Liu Yu's mind.

With a powerful consciousness, he always paid attention to the situation in the alchemy furnace.

The step of condensing the pill has been completed. Based on his years of experience in alchemy, he judged that the time to open the furnace has come.

"Rise!"

With Liu Yu's light shout, the spell in his hand changed, and the lid of the green pill cauldron immediately rose.

"Clang"

After a slight roar, several round pills appeared.

"Hmm?"

But at this moment, Liu Yu frowned.

Because the original medicinal fragrance in the room quickly became faint, and a burnt smell filled the air, as if something was burning.

In the observation of the divine consciousness, the seven pills in the Qingdan Ding had turned black.

This time, the alchemy was obviously a failure.

"Failed again."

"Although the grade is only the third-grade middle grade, because it needs many spiritual herbs and the medicinal properties are more complex, the difficulty of refining the Soul Condensing Pill is comparable to some third-grade top-grade pills."

Admitting his failure, Liu Yu showed no expression on his face, and his heart was calm. He cleaned the Qingdan Ding and put it in the storage ring.

He is already a master of alchemy. With his current alchemy attainments, he can still maintain a high success rate when refining third-grade middle-grade and below pills.

Once it exceeds the third-grade middle grade, the success rate will drop sharply, and the alchemy attainments need to be gradually improved to maintain a high success rate.

For example, he has failed many times in refining the Soul Condensing Pill.

"Fortunately, I have the Immortal Mansion as my backing, and the price of my failure is much lower than that of ordinary cultivators."

"After this failure, I will summarize my experience and start over next time."

"In terms of alchemy, even compared with the true teachings of big forces, I have too many chances of failure."

After cleaning up the alchemy scene, Liu Yu thought silently.

In general, his talent in alchemy is not good, and he can become an "alchemy master" by accumulating countless experiences.

After experiencing such failures countless times, he no longer worries about gains and losses.

But he will not slack off because of this, and his attitude towards alchemy is as rigorous as the beginning.

Thinking of this, Liu Yu's mind moved, and he took out a palm-sized communication jade card from the storage ring, and his spiritual sense probed into it to read the message.

"Specially order the ancient city of this alliance cultivator to go to Jiangzhou on April 9, 102,301, Daqian..."

In just a moment, his spiritual sense read the message of this arrival.

This time, the mission is for Liu Yu to secretly intercept and kill several Qianting cultivators alone.

Seize a fourth-level spiritual material called "Mysterious Stone" and hand it over to Buyi League.

The message mentioned that the cultivation of those monks would not exceed the Jindan realm, and no Yuanying stage monks would appear within the specified time.

The mission specifically requires that the group of monks must kill more than half of them and bring the "Mysterious Stone" back to Buyi League to complete the mission.

If either of the two requirements is not met, the mission will be considered a failure.

"Qian Ting monk?"

"It's a bit difficult."

Putting the message jade token into the storage ring, Liu Yu sat cross-legged on the futon and thought quietly, frowning slightly.

The first mission was to intercept and kill Qian Ting monks. The intention of Buyi League was very obvious.

It was to make the newly joined monks completely have no way out and draw a clear line with Qian Ting and others.

After all, their own hands may have been stained with the blood of Qian Ting monks, while the later monks did not.

I have no way out, but you still have a way out. In this case, how can we trust each other?

Not to mention leaving your back to your teammates.

Only when everyone leaves no way out and completely draws a line with Qianting, can they be considered true fellows and can be barely trusted.

Therefore, this mission can be seen as a belated "letter of surrender", an important test for the new blood of the Buyi Alliance.

"My mission is like this, and I believe that the first missions of other cultivators should be of similar types."

"Either intercepting Qianting cultivators, or killing cultivators from other major forces, such as holy places, sects, and aristocratic families."

Liu Yu smiled slightly and realized this quickly.

However, he had expected this and was not surprised.

After all, when everyone has no way out, how can a cultivator who still has a way out be trusted by his fellows?

"There are two keys to this mission."

"The first is to kill as many Qianting monks as possible."

"The second is the fourth-level spiritual material "Miss Stone."

Liu Yu tapped his knuckles on his thighs, thinking about the key to this mission.

"My current strength is already rare in the Jindan realm, unless I encounter someone on the "True Person List."

"Killing most of the monks should not be difficult to do."

"The key is how to ensure that we can get the "Miss Stone."

In his dark eyes,

there was a gleam of rationality.

He carefully analyzed this mission based on the message from the Buyi League.

"To ensure that the "Miss Stone" is obtained, it is best not to leave any of the monks mentioned in the mission!"

Thinking of this, a hint of coldness flashed in Liu Yu's eyes.

Although under normal circumstances, important spiritual materials are generally placed in the hands of the cultivators with the highest status and the strongest strength, there are exceptions to everything.

In order to ensure the safety of spiritual materials, the target may take them by surprise and put them in the hands of "minions" and take them away without anyone noticing.

So from the perspective of being foolproof, all targets are killed in the end.

In this way, as long as the information from the Buyi League is correct, the "Mysterious Stone" will definitely be obtained!

"Act according to circumstances."

Making a decision not to leave, Liu Yu stood up and walked towards the training room.

Tasks are tasks, and daily training cannot be left behind.

Only by steadily improving strength can one finally gain a foothold in the current undercurrent in the Central Region.

In the final analysis, the Buyi League gave all kinds of preferential treatment because he was far superior to his peers!

...

As the capital of Jiangzhou, even though it was late at night, the city was still bustling.

Under the dark night, the colorful lamps hanging everywhere in the city illuminated the city as bright as day, without any sense of darkness.

From afar, a brightly lit city that never sleeps is clearly displayed in front of all monks.

The streets are bustling with people, and even in the middle of the night, the sound of hawking is still heard.

All kinds of monks come and go, each doing their own things.

Some walked out of the crowd and entered the shop to buy magic weapons; some walked slowly, looking around from time to time, admiring the prosperity of Jiangzhou City; some set up stalls and shouted loudly, hoping to sell the goods as soon as possible.

Of course, there are also mortals in the city, but most of them are engaged in some humble jobs, and the remuneration is mostly yellow and white things.

Either coolies, errand runners, or slaves!

Even for a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage, staying up for days and nights is not a problem, so it is not difficult to understand the bustling scene in Jiangzhou City at night.

For cultivators, day or night does not seem to make much difference?

However, Jiangzhou tonight seems to be particularly lively, and the frequency of "seniors" in the Jindan realm is much higher than usual.

Even Yuanying Zhenjun can occasionally be seen.

The reason for this is that the large-scale auction held by the "Black Sky Auction House" every ten years will be held in Jiangzhou City tonight.

The strength of the "Black Sky Auction House" is among the best in the entire Jiangzhou. Many rare magic weapons and spiritual objects will appear in the auction items of each large-scale auction.

Even the extremely important strategic resources such as the Jindan spiritual objects, the three treasures of the Jinying, and the high-level spiritual warships have a great probability of appearing.

Generally speaking, one or several will appear as the finale.

Therefore, the large-scale auction held by the Black Sky Auction House every ten years has long been famous, and most cultivators in Jiangzhou will pay attention to it.

Some powerful and wealthy monks usually would not miss this opportunity and would come from afar, hoping to buy what they need.

At the time of Yin, the auction held once every ten years had ended, and the monks who came left one after another.

In the eyes of most low-level monks in the city, who were either in awe or envious, colorful escape lights rose into the sky and disappeared into the vast night.

Some monks were cautious because they chose to take the teleportation array to leave Jiangzhou City directly because they had rare spiritual objects.

Under the bright lights, five Jindan monks, one woman and four men, walked out of the Black Sky Auction House quickly.

The leading female monk wore a classical light blue long skirt, with a faint spiritual light shining on the skirt, and spiritual patterns glowing from time to time.

At first glance, it was a high-end robe, definitely not inferior to some top-grade magic weapons.

This woman has fair skin, picturesque eyebrows, delicate collarbones, long white hair piled high, and just the right amount of makeup.

Every move she makes exudes a noble aura of someone who has been in a high position for a long time, which is definitely not comparable to ordinary cultivators.

She is covered with powder made of spiritual herbs, and wherever she passes, she leaves a wisp of alluring fragrance that has not dissipated for a long time.

But the four Jindan male cultivators following the green-skirted female cultivator did not dare to show any abnormality, and even kept their breathing at a specific frequency.

The four men were three steps behind the green-skirted female cultivator, following her step by step, their eyes always scanning the surroundings, as if they were alert to something.

From the brisk pace of the female cultivator, it can be seen that she is in a very good mood and should have gained a lot in the auction.

"Wang... Miss, this is not the way to the teleportation hall."

Seeing that the green-skirted female cultivator did not follow the original plan and took the teleportation array directly back to the mansion, a male cultivator could not help but remind her.

When he spoke, he lowered his head slightly and did not dare to look directly at the other party.

A dignified Jindan cultivator, but without the demeanor of a Jindan Zhenren, he looked more like a servant.

"Are you teaching me how to do things?"

Hearing this, the green-skirted female cultivator, who was originally in a good mood, paused, put away her smile, and turned back to speak calmly.

Although her tone was calm, the simple sentence, after the blessing of her status, carried an inexplicable majesty.

As she spoke, she naturally exuded the majesty of a superior, making her look intimidating without anger.

As Jindan cultivators, the four male cultivators did not dare to refute at all.

"No, no."

"Miss, I have no such intention!"

Under the aggressive gaze of the green-skirted female cultivator, the male cultivator who spoke immediately gave up and quickly bowed to admit his mistake.

The other three also bowed and saluted.

"Humph."

"You don't have the courage!"

"It's a rare trip. I don't want to go back so soon. I have made an appointment with the Jiang family's daughter-in-law to have a few drinks and enjoy the spirit flowers."

The female cultivator in the green skirt snorted coldly.

But she also understood that the guards were thinking about their own safety, so she still explained.

The "Jiang family" he refers to has an extraordinary origin.

The Jiang family is deeply rooted in Jiangzhou and has been inherited for 30,000 years. It is a famous family in the entire continent.

Moreover, this generation of "Jiangzhou Mu" is the ancestor of the Jiang family who has perfected his cultivation in Yuanying.

There are rumors that the ancestor of the Jiang family was deeply trusted by Emperor Daqian, so he was entrusted with the important task of serving as the "state pastor" who held the power of a continent.

Even including the Qianting and the Holy Land, the number of forces with the presence of god-transformation monks in the Central Region will never exceed half a hundred.

Looking at the ninety-three continents currently controlled by the human race, on average, there is no god-forming force in two continents.

If all the forces in the Central Region were divided based on strength alone, the Qianting and Holy Land with "Lingbao" would undoubtedly be in the first echelon.

The forces that possess the existence of the God-Transforming God-Monarch are in the second echelon.

The forces with the existence of great monks belong to the third echelon.

The ancestor of the Jiang family had perfected his cultivation in Yuanying, and was deeply trusted by Qian Ting to serve as the "Jiangzhou Shepherd". There is no doubt that he is the top of the third echelon.

As for the forces that have one or more Nascent Soul monks, but the highest cultivation level does not exceed the middle Nascent Soul stage, they can only be in the fourth echelon.

The strength gap between the four echelons is very obvious and almost impossible to overcome.

Without the presence of True Lord Nascent Soul, a force can only be regarded as a minor force in the Central Territory, and its influence cannot spread throughout a continent, let alone affect other parts of the continent.

Such a force may one day be uprooted, and its establishment and destruction are nothing new.

After reprimanding the guards, the female cultivator in the green skirt was very satisfied when she saw that the four of them did not dare to go against their own will and did not dare to show their anger.

Thinking about how to have fun while visiting friends this time, she unknowingly walked out of the city gate, turned into a white light and soared into the sky, flying towards the south of Jiangzhou City.

Upon seeing this, the four guards, all of whom were at least in the middle stage of the Golden Core, looked at each other, and they could see dissatisfaction in each other's eyes.

But he could only follow closely behind and guard closely around the female cultivator.

The status of the female cultivator in the green skirt is sensitive, and she is not protected by the Nascent Soul Lord during this trip. If anything goes wrong, their lives will be at risk.

Therefore, the four of them did not want to cause trouble, but they had no choice but to twist their thighs with their arms.

However, the five female cultivators in green skirts did not notice at all that there was a monk with a black hood covering most of his face in a window seat in a tea house opposite the Black Sky Auction. They could see this scene from the corner of their eyes.

"Snapped"

The spiritual consciousness silently locked onto the five female cultivators in green skirts. Liu Yu, who was dressed in black robes, put down the tea cup without any haste.

After paying the bill and leaving the teahouse, he used his magic power to rise into the sky and turned into a ray of cyan light, flying directly out of the city.

The target was clearly the south where the female cultivator in blue skirt had left!
