Longevity Gu Dao: Start From Refining Infatuation Gu

Chapter 280: Thousand-Year Spirit Medicine, Soul Formation Medicine Garden

One month later.

News once again came from the remnants of the Withering Glory Sect's Soul Formation site.

Although they had broken through the restrictions and formations of this Soul Formation site, they had only entered the outer region.

Of course, even so, the outer region was quite large.

After all, the entire island had a diameter of over one million kilometers, and the outer region alone spanned tens of thousands of miles.

Most of this area consisted of dense forests, uninhabited and desolate.

But there was no doubt that a great battle had erupted.

The reason for the outbreak was simple: they had found a massive medicine garden.

This garden was filled with densely packed spirit medicines.

Due to the passage of time and lack of harvesting, the spirit medicines in the garden were of a very old vintage.

At least they were all thousand-year spirit medicines.

Among them was the Thousand-Year Heaven Mending Grass, the main ingredient of the Rank Four Heaven Mending Pill. The effects of the Heaven Mending Pill were astonishing, capable of repairing all bodily defects, healing various injuries, and even improving one's spiritual roots.

Therefore, the Heaven Mending Pill was enough to drive many Nascent Soul cultivators crazy.

After all, many Nascent Soul cultivators had accumulated numerous hidden injuries over hundreds of years of battles, and it was these injuries that hindered their further progress.

If they were to take the Heaven Mending Pill, they would likely be able to continue on their path.

Which Nascent Soul cultivator wouldn't go crazy for it?

There was also the Thousand-Year Heavenly Origin Fruit, the main ingredient of the Rank Four Heavenly Origin Pill.

By taking the Heavenly Origin Pill, there was a certain probability of helping Nascent Soul cultivators in the early stage to break through to the mid-stage of Nascent Soul.

This was also a pill that many Nascent Soul cultivators yearned for.

In addition to these, there were many other thousand-year spirit medicines, all of which were the main ingredients of various Rank Four pills.

It can be imagined that many Nascent Soul cultivators went completely crazy.

Because the cultivation of Nascent Soul was so difficult, it was because they lacked many ancient spirit medicines that they were unable to refine Rank Four pills.

But now, this medicine garden unexpectedly cultivated so many ancient spirit medicines and thousand-year spirit medicines, making it possible to refine various Rank Four pills.

A great battle among Nascent Soul cultivators erupted in an instant.

In order to compete for these thousand-year spirit medicines, many Nascent Soul cultivators fought ruthlessly, showing no mercy.

However, the unfortunate thing was that the aftermath of these battles triggered the restrictions and formations left behind by the Withering Glory Sect.

Suddenly, this Rank Five formation activated, unleashing terrifying power.

A large number of cultivators perished.

Even Nascent Soul cultivators were unable to escape, meeting their demise.

Only a few cultivators were able to escape from the medicine garden.

However, these survivors also carried a large amount of millennium spirit medicine and reaped great rewards.

But they were also besieged and pursued by other cultivators, facing attacks from all directions.

The entire Soul Formation ruins were in chaos.

There were numerous cultivators falling every moment, and this place had become a battlefield for Nascent Soul cultivators.

In order to seize further opportunities, they showed no mercy.

"I didn't expect the Soul Formation ruins to be so chaotic, with Nascent Soul cultivators from all major sects fighting."

"This sea area has become a battlefield."

"Fortunately, Husband activated the Rank Four High Grade array, the Profound Yin Heavy Water Formation, in advance."

"Otherwise, there would definitely be Nascent Soul cultivators breaking in, trying to stir up trouble."

Lin Yazhu was extremely grateful.

Over the past month, some Nascent Soul cultivators who had gained a lot managed to escape from the Soul Formation ruins, but they were pursued by other Nascent Soul ancestors. These Nascent Soul cultivators even tried to enter the Three Star Island Group, attempting to lead the trouble away.

They sought the help of the Three Star Island Group to stop their pursuers.

Unfortunately, her Husband had foreseen this and activated the Profound Yin Heavy Water Formation in advance, sealing off this sea area.

Any Nascent Soul cultivator who tried to break in would be struck by thunder.

Seeing this scene, many Nascent Soul cultivators had no choice but to give up and not dare to trespass into the Three Star Island Group.

This also made the Three Star Island Group the only pure land in this sea area.

"Husband, why are there so many millennium spirit medicines on that Soul Formation ruins?"

Chu Dieyi asked curiously.

Because there were simply too many millennium spirit medicines on that Soul Formation ruins, to the extent that many Nascent Soul cultivators were envious.

There had been Soul Formation ruins before, but none of them had yielded as much as this Soul Formation ruins.

"Well, it naturally has a great deal to do with the Withering Glory Sect, the Soul Formation sect."

"It is said that in ancient times, the Withering Glory Sect itself was an alchemy sect famous in the Canglan Sea Region."

"They were very skilled in cultivating spirit medicines and refining pills."

"And this medicinal garden is just one of the small-scale medicinal gardens in the Soul Formation ruins."

"There are many similar small-scale medicinal gardens on the islands."

"It is said that in the core area of the Withering Glory Sect, there is also a Soul Formation medicinal garden, where Rank Five spirit medicines are cultivated."

Zhou Sui thought for a moment and immediately revealed the information collected by his clone.

After all, his clone had also gone to the outskirts of the Soul Formation ruins and temporarily hidden himself, blending into the trees, making it impossible for other cultivators to detect him.

So he was able to gather a lot of information, as if he had experienced it himself.

"Rank Five Spirit Medicine?"

"Does that mean that the Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators are planning to attack the core area?"

Chu Dieyi widened her beautiful eyes.

She knew how crazy those Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators would become after hearing this news. They had been stuck at the Nascent Soul Late Stage for a long time and were all looking for an opportunity to break through to the Soul Formation stage.

Unfortunately, there had been no such opportunity in the Canglan Sea Region before.

But now, with the appearance of the Soul Formation ruins and the Rank Five Spirit Medicine, it brought them great hope.

How could they bear to give up this opportunity? They would definitely become even more crazy.

"That's right, they do have similar plans."

"So these cultivators rarely pay attention to the peripheral areas and go straight to the core area."

"Most of those who compete for the thousand-year spirit medicines are at the Nascent Soul Early Stage or Nascent Soul Mid Stage."

Zhou Sui nodded.

However, he didn't think it would be so easy for those Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators to break through the core area. The Rank Five formations in the core area were completely different from the prohibitions in the peripheral areas.

His Formation Heart Gu had been invading all this time.

Unfortunately, it still hadn't succeeded in invading.

If they really triggered the prohibitions in the core area, not many Nascent Soul cultivators would survive.

The strength of the Soul Formation sect, Withering Glory Sect, was not fake.

Its foundation was truly unfathomable.

"I wonder how Venerable Peach Blossom is doing."

Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes.

He had previously used a token to communicate with the other party. At that time, Venerable Peach Blossom and many Infinite Unity Alliance Nascent Soul cultivators had entered the Soul Formation ruins.

Unfortunately, there had been no news from Venerable Peach Blossom until now.

But through the power of the Infatuation Gu, he could sense that Venerable Peach Blossom's vitality was still quite strong.

There shouldn't be any immediate danger.

But he didn't know what would happen next. He just hoped that Venerable Peach Blossom would be safe.

Several days later.

Late at night, with a few stars in the moonlit sky.

Xianxia Peak, inside the bedroom.

"Husband, it seems that the effect of tonight's cultivation is quite good."

Shen Biqian's face blushed as she felt the rapid increase in her Gold Core's spiritual power.

Cultivating with her husband once was better than her own days of hard cultivation.

Because the effect was so good, she was almost addicted to cultivation every day, unable to extricate herself.

If she continued like this, she feared that she would soon be able to attempt the Nascent Soul stage.

"Haha, of course."

"Now that the spiritual power in my Gold Core is abundant, it naturally greatly benefits all of you."

Zhou Sui touched his chin and looked at his beautiful partner, feeling extremely satisfied.

Indeed, cultivating with his partner was better.

Why risk their lives in ruins and face life-threatening situations?

Isn't it better to slowly improve their cultivation with their partner?

Why bother fighting desperately with other cultivators?

Once a mistake was made, years of cultivation would be destroyed, and they would die.

He felt that his current life was very comfortable.

"Hmm?!"

Just at this moment, Zhou Sui's heart trembled, as if he sensed something, causing him to furrow his brows.

He emitted waves of killing intent.

"What's wrong, Husband? Is something big happening?"

Lin Yazhu and the others looked at Zhou Sui, noticing his serious expression.

After all, Zhou Sui rarely showed such a serious expression.

"Well, there are Nascent Soul cultivators approaching the edge of the formation."

"They are chasing after Venerable Peach Blossom. I'll go take a look."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Sui immediately put on his clothes, activated the Teleportation Gu, and instantly arrived at the edge of the formation.

He flew in mid-air, looking at the sea ahead.

Not far away in the sky, several streaks of light were crazily chasing each other, erupting with bursts of battle fluctuations that covered thousands of miles. The entire sea was overturned, creating towering waves.

Fortunately, they were fighting in the sea. If it were on an island, tens of thousands of miles would likely be flattened.

Clearly, these were Nascent Soul cultivators fighting.

A pink streak of light rushed towards the Three Stars Island, being chased relentlessly by three black streaks of light.

He immediately recognized that the person fleeing was Venerable Peach Blossom.

And the ones chasing Venerable Peach Blossom were three Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators, exuding a terrifying demonic aura. They were obviously demonic cultivators, but he didn't know much about them.

He also didn't know who these three demonic cultivators were. He only knew that their cultivation bases were very strong, already reaching the Nascent Soul Late Stage.

If not, they wouldn't be able to chase after Venerable Peach Blossom.

"Senior Peach Blossom, please enter the formation first."

At this moment, Zhou Sui immediately transmitted his divine sense to Venerable Peach Blossom.

With a wave of his hand, the heavy water barrier at the edge of the formation instantly opened, splitting in half to reveal an entrance large enough to enter the formation.

"Good."

Upon hearing Zhou Sui's voice, Venerable Peach Blossom was delighted and hastened her speed, instantly entering the formation. The formation barrier closed once again.

At this moment, Venerable Peach Blossom's face was pale, her clothes tattered, revealing a perfect figure and skin as fair as snow. She was incredibly charming and pitiful.

Under the moonlight, her exquisite face appeared exceptionally captivating.

It seemed even the moon paled in comparison.

Even though she was injured and on the run, she remained extremely beautiful.

However, with a gentle sweep of his divine sense, Zhou Sui sensed that Venerable Peach Blossom's injuries were not too severe. Although they looked frightening, they were not fatal.

He immediately felt relieved.

"Senior Peach Blossom, are you alright with your injuries?"

Zhou Sui asked.

"It's nothing serious."

"As long as I rest for a few days, the injuries should heal."

"Fortunately, you appeared in time. Otherwise, I might have been killed by those three demonic cultivators."

Venerable Peach Blossom was extremely grateful.

When she was being chased by three Nascent Soul demonic cultivators, she instinctively flew towards the Three Stars Island Group.

Because she knew that if she wanted to survive, she had to seek help from that man.

Although this man was only a Gold Core Late Stage cultivator, in terms of reliability, he was more reliable than any Nascent Soul cultivator. From the results, her choice was indeed correct.

After escaping to the Three Stars Island Group, she was finally completely safe.

"What exactly happened?"

"Weren't you with Lord Leader and the others?"

Zhou Sui asked curiously.

Because normally, Venerable Peach Blossom would not be targeted by other Nascent Soul cultivators.

After all, with more than thirty Nascent Soul cultivators from the Infinite Unity Alliance together, who would dare to bully the Infinite Unity Alliance?

Furthermore, with the power of Lord Wuji, it could even deter many Nascent Soul cultivators.

No matter how you looked at it, Venerable Peach Blossom should not have ended up in such a situation.

"Alas, we underestimated the power of that Soul Formation relic."

"We originally thought that after deciphering the outer restrictions, there would be no problem deciphering the core area's formation."

"Who could have expected that, during the process of deciphering the formation, an accident occurred."

"It triggered the Rank Five formation of the Withering Glory Sect."

"As a result, my father, Venerable Wuji from the Heavenly Sword Sect, Venerable Tianan from the Mysterious Treasure Building, and other sect masters, were all instantly trapped inside the formation and unable to escape for a short period of time."

"Coincidentally, at this time, I found several storage bags containing the Nascent Soul remains of the Withering Glory Sect."

"Judging from the clothing on those remains, they were probably elders of the Withering Glory Sect."

"The storage bags contained a large number of treasures, of considerable value."

"Most importantly, there were Rank Four medicinal pills called the Ten Thousand Wood Pill, which, when consumed, can increase the cultivation of a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator by twenty years of spiritual power."

"In addition, there were many cultivation techniques passed down by the Withering Glory Sect."

"But this scene was also discovered by Patriarch Black Moon of the Heavenly Demon Sect, the Black Fiend Hall's Mingyan Patriarch, and the Mysterious Yin Sect's Jiying Patriarch."

"As a result, they joined forces to attack me."

"Although my cultivation has also reached the Nascent Soul Late Stage realm, compared to these three veteran Nascent Soul cultivators, I naturally have no chance and have been forced to retreat."

Venerable Peach Blossom immediately recounted the events that had just happened in great detail, leaving nothing out.

Obviously, those three Nascent Soul demonic cultivators were tempted by the wealth.

Coupled with the fact that Venerable Wuji and other Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators were trapped in the Rank Five formation and unable to leave for a short time.

This made them even more reckless, joining forces to deal with Venerable Peach Blossom.

Even if they really killed Venerable Peach Blossom and angered Venerable Wuji, they didn't care.

After all, they had their sects backing them.

Even if Venerable Wuji was furious, he wouldn't be able to do anything to them afterwards.

Moreover, this was a chance to achieve Dao. These three Nascent Soul demonic cultivators would never let Venerable Peach Blossom go.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

At this moment, three streaks of light instantly arrived, reaching the outer area of the formation in an instant.

Suddenly, three old men appeared, each emitting a powerful Nascent Soul aura, as if the area within a thousand miles was distorted by this power.

The sky was covered in dark clouds, with heavy black mist.

"Venerable Peach Blossom, hand over the storage bags of the Withering Glory Sect cultivators immediately, or you will not escape today."

The one speaking was Patriarch Black Moon of the Heavenly Demon Sect. He was dressed in a black robe with a moon pattern on his back, exuding a terrifying demonic aura, extremely fierce.

His eyes emitted a purple light, as if he could see Zhou Sui and Venerable Peach Blossom behind the water barrier, not concealing his killing intent in the slightest.

"Who are you, a mere Gold Core cultivator, daring to assist Venerable Peach Blossom? Are you seeking death?"

Patriarch Black Moon stared at Zhou Sui intently.

His heart was filled with anger.

Undoubtedly, if it weren't for this person opening the formation barrier, Venerable Peach Blossom would never have been able to escape their grasp. He had completely come to hate Zhou Sui, filled with rage.

To be honest, he was determined to obtain the storage bags of those Withering Glory Sect cultivators.

These storage bags contain too many precious treasures.

They are definitely the legacy of an ancient Soul Formation sect, and there may be a large number of rare elixirs left behind.

There might even be the inheritance of the Withering Glory Sect.

If he obtains the cultivation techniques from these inheritances, his cultivation level is very likely to make further breakthroughs.

Even becoming a Soul Formation cultivator is not impossible.

So faced with such a great opportunity, he absolutely cannot give up.

"Why be so angry?"

"In the ruins of Soul Formation, obtaining opportunities is all about one's own abilities."

"You are inferior in skill, yet still want to bully the weak. It's a bit lacking in integrity."

"How about giving me face and both sides taking a step back, completely stopping this?"

Zhou Sui smiled slightly, looking at Patriarch Black Moon and the others, proposing his suggestion, hoping that everyone could shake hands and make peace.

"Stop your bullshit."

"Who do you think you are? Just a Gold Core ant, yet you dare to act as a mediator."

"If it weren't for the protection of a Rank Four formation, I could slap you to death with one hand."

"You dare to babble in front of me, you're simply tired of living."

The Black Fiend Hall's Black Flame Ancestor shouted angrily, his temper was extremely volatile.

Black flames burst out from his body, as if wanting to burn mountains and boil seas, the temperature around him rapidly rising, as if wanting to completely destroy the formation barrier.

He felt that this Gold Core cultivator in front of him was simply insane, actually daring to negotiate with a Nascent Soul cultivator. Was he tired of living or what?

On what basis did this kid think he would give face to a mere Gold Core cultivator?

Relying on a Rank Four formation, he really thought he could sit on equal footing with a Nascent Soul cultivator.

"A mere Gold Core cultivator, also dares to act arrogantly in front of us."

"Today, I not only want to take away the storage bags of the Withering Glory Sect cultivators."

"I also want to take down the two of you, let's see how you can resist us."

The Mysterious Yin Sect's Shadow Ancestor sneered, a terrifying cold aura emanating from his body, as if the power of his Nascent Soul realm could freeze the entire sea for thousands of miles.

He was a bit amused.

Having lived for so long, it was the first time he had seen a Gold Core cultivator dare to act arrogantly in front of a Nascent Soul ancestor.

This kid really couldn't tell how much he weighed.

"If you don't drink the toast, you'll drink the penalty."

"Don't blame me for this."

"All three of you will die here."

Zhou Sui calmly looked at Patriarch Black Moon and the others, his eyes as calm as a lake, but it was clear that he was also angry.

These three Nascent Soul cultivators don't want to give face, so let them all die here.

Boom~

In an instant, the Rank Four grand formation, Xuan Yin Heavy Water Formation, started operating. The range of this formation's barrier unexpectedly expanded, instantly enveloping Patriarch Black Moon, Ming Yan Patriarch, and Extreme Shadow Patriarch.

Obviously, the range covered by this grand formation was not limited to just 200,000 miles.

The reason why it only covered a range of 200,000 miles was because he had reduced the power of the formation.

In fact, the coverage of the formation could reach an area of 500,000 miles.

As long as he had the thought, he could expand the range of the formation, enveloping these three Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators, making it impossible for them to escape.

What?!

Patriarch Black Moon, Ming Yan Patriarch, and Extreme Shadow Patriarch's expressions changed. They were originally calm and composed because they were outside the formation's range, beyond the reach of their opponent.

But now, the range of the formation expanded once again, instantly enveloping them.

At this moment, they felt the immense power of the Rank Four formation's barrier and the omnipresent pressure.

It seemed that in this instant, everywhere in this world was their enemy, and they were unwelcome within the formation, subjected to immense pressure.

"Heavy Water!"

In an instant, Zhou Sui had a thought and immediately manipulated the Xuan Yin Heavy Water Formation. Dark clouds covered the sky, and countless drops of heavy water gathered together, forming a massive storm layer.

The next second, a large amount of heavy water fell from the sky, covering this sea area.

The weight of each drop of heavy water was like a mountain peak.

Thousands of drops of rain, that was like thousands of mountain peaks falling down. The power within them was enough to destroy an island.

Feeling this terrifying power and the pervasive killing intent, even the three Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators had distorted expressions, sensing the immense life and death crisis.

"Black Moon Flag."

In an instant, Patriarch Black Moon made a move, immediately taking out a High Grade Spiritual Treasure, the Black Moon Flag, from his body. On it, a black moon appeared, emitting an ominous aura.

Only to see him wave the Black Moon Flag, releasing endless black Heavenly Demon aura, forming large ominous black moons, like stars.

The spiritual energy of the surrounding thousands of miles was devoured and absorbed by him, converging in the Black Moon Flag, erupting with earth-shattering power.

Boom boom boom~

Suddenly, the two forces collided instantly, like a comet hitting the earth, creating unparalleled destructive power. The sea area within thousands of miles experienced intense shaking and massive tsunamis.

Even this power transmitted to the depths of the sea, causing underwater tremors and terrifying cracks, as if even the seabed was being torn apart by this power.

Many marine creatures in the deep sea couldn't withstand this power and were shaken to death.

The surface of the sea was also filled with the corpses of many fish, dripping with blood.

With just one strike, Patriarch Black Moon demonstrated the terrifying combat power of a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator, something that cultivators in the Nascent Soul Mid Stage and Nascent Soul Early Stage couldn't compare to.

His combat power had increased by at least ten times.
