Mortal Alchemy

No one on the scene immediately challenged Chen Ping again.

Chen Ping knew when to stop; two hundred thousand spirit stones were enough for him to cultivate for two years.

Chen Ping slowly ascended, preparing to return to his own cultivation ground.

Seeing this, Wang Funi did not leave but followed him.

Wang Funi flew beside Chen Ping, and from a distance, the two looked like a pair of celestial beings.

Wang Funi and Chen Ping were both direct disciples of a Nascent Soul cultivator, and Wang Funi was even brought into the sect by Chen Ping.

In the eyes of outsiders, the two were a perfect match in terms of status and position.

Some people who saw this scene immediately revealed jealousy in their eyes.

Wang Funi flew beside Chen Ping and asked, "Senior Brother Chen, how have you been doing outside these years?"

Although Chen Ping was suppressed by Wang Funi's master, Yao Guang Shangren, such suppression had become Chen Ping's wish.

Strictly speaking, Chen Ping had to thank Yao Guang Shangren. If it weren't for Yao Guang Shangren demoting him to Fuguang Fangshi, how would he have had so many opportunities and adventures later?

He would probably still be in the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

Therefore, Chen Ping's impression of Wang Funi was not bad, just like before.

Chen Ping smiled and said:

"Although it is hard and dangerous outside, the gains are also relatively large. If possible, I would not want to return to the sect."

Wang Funi's beautiful eyes shone, and her eyes were full of longing: "That's great. I wish I could be sent out like Senior Brother Chen."

Chen Ping's expression froze; she was a bit unaware of how good she had it.

In this monster tide war, the Dongxuan Sect alone lost more than a thousand Foundation Establishment cultivators, and it was said that several Golden Core cultivators also perished.

Chen Ping asked back, "Then, Junior Sister Wang, how have you been these years?"

Wang Funi pouted: "Before Foundation Establishment, I had been cultivating in my master's cultivation ground and never left the sect."

"After Foundation Establishment, because of my status as a direct disciple, I don't have to learn a skill to support myself. I just follow my master to cultivate."

"I have gone out to do a few missions to hone myself these years, but I am always managed by my senior brothers and sisters, which is not comfortable. I am already over thirty years old, and I am still being managed like a child."

Chen Ping rubbed his forehead, a trace of envy flashing in his eyes.

She had cultivated to the late stage of Foundation Establishment so carefree; it was simply the dream of countless cultivators.

But her treatment was also normal because as a direct disciple of a Nascent Soul cultivator, her master would help her advance to the Golden Core stage as soon as possible so that she could get the Immortal Gate Order for one hundred great merits.

This was a treasure for Nascent Soul cultivators.

Gong Yue Shangren's support for Chen Ping was also not small.

Chen Ping smiled and said, "This time, only Foundation Establishment cultivators can go to the Changtian Secret Realm, so Junior Sister Wang doesn't have to be managed by others."

"Yes!" Wang Funi raised her small pink fist, her face full of expectation:

"I am looking forward to this Changtian Secret Realm. My master said that if I am lucky enough, I can accumulate the resources to advance to the Golden Core stage after leaving the Changtian Secret Realm."

Chen Ping nodded slowly: "Then we have to work hard together."

He needed the third-grade spiritual herbs in the Changtian Secret Realm.

Wang Funi followed behind Chen Ping, went to Chen Ping's cultivation ground to drink tea and chat, and the two reminisced about the past. Wang Funi also seemed to intend to get closer to Chen Ping and deepen their relationship.

She stayed for half a day before leaving.

As soon as she left, Bai Jianjia came, looking at him with a smile: "Junior Brother's charm is really not small. It seems that it won't be long before you can add another wife."

Chen Ping's face was full of black lines: "Senior Sister misunderstood. I and Junior Sister Wang just haven't seen each other for many years, so we were just catching up."

Bai Jianjia took out a sealed talisman: "Inside is the second-grade spiritual fire that Junior Brother asked me for last time."

Chen Ping's face lit up with joy: "Thank you, Senior Sister!"

"How much does it cost? I'll give it to Senior Sister."

Bai Jianjia waved her hand: "No need, it's not worth much."

"Besides, this second-grade spiritual fire was also confiscated from the Xingfeng, so I didn't spend any money."

Chen Ping's expression froze: "Xingfeng actually has such benefits?"

Bai Jianjia said: "Of course. Everything that Xingfeng disciples confiscate during missions must be returned to the treasury and then distributed."

Chen Ping clicked his tongue; this treatment was worlds apart from that of ordinary disciples.

Bai Jianjia looked at Chen Ping: "Junior Brother, you won today's battle decisively. Presumably, they won't dare to act rashly again in a short time without figuring out Junior Brother's information."

Chen Ping said with a smile: "It would be great if there were more battles like this."

Bai Jianjia was very satisfied with Chen Ping's sharp and exposed appearance.

After chatting for a few more words, Bai Jianjia left.

Chen Ping calculated the time; it would probably take one or two months for Fuguang Fangshi to send the resources over.

Chen Ping decided to leave the sect to get some air, took the White Jade Flying Boat, and left the sect. He first went to Baisha Fangshi and came to Wanbao Pavilion to post a demand for the purchase of some second-grade spiritual objects.

Then he came to the former site of the Mu family to take a look.

The Mu family, which was originally located next to Qiuyue Lake, once had endless buildings and vast blue waves, like a fairyland.

Now it is a barren land, and there is even a lingering baleful aura. Looking around, there are dense graves.

The Dongxuan Sect killed thousands of Mu family cultivators as they pleased.

Chen Ping was a little emotional; after all, he spent his weakest time in the Mu family and also met many relatives and friends.

He shook his head, took the White Jade Flying Boat, and left, heading to his hometown.

Decades have passed, and Chenjia Village has not changed much. The only difference is that there are more graves.

Chen Ping repaired and tidied up his parents' graves and replenished the filling of the formation spirit stones.

After another round of worship, Chen Ping returned to the Dongxuan Sect.

During this time, many people were inquiring about more information about Chen Ping.

One month, two months passed, and Chen Ping was quietly cultivating. No one came to challenge Chen Ping.

To Chen Ping's surprise, it was Zhou Ying who came to deliver the resources to him.

Seeing that Chen Ping was not in Fuguang Fangshi, this woman did not want to stay in Fuguang Fangshi either.

She also inquired about the news of the Changtian Secret Realm list and said to Chen Ping with some regret:

"Little Sister also wants to participate in the Changtian Secret Realm, but everyone on this list is at least in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and their identities are all very prominent."

Chen Ping pinched his chin, his brows slightly furrowed: "Junior Sister wants to participate in the Changtian Secret Realm?"

Zhou Ying smiled bitterly: "Little Sister naturally wants to, but unfortunately, her strength is insufficient."

She had only broken through to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment a few years ago. She was comprehending the second-grade talisman master inheritance, and her cultivation was insufficient, and her combat power was also average.

Chen Ping was thinking about something else:

"If I can find a way for Junior Sister to participate in the Changtian Secret Realm, then would Junior Sister owe me a big favor?"

Zhou Ying was a little excited, and her heart was pounding:

"Senior Brother has a way?"

A hint of cunning flashed in Chen Ping's eyes: "There should be a way, but I can't tell Junior Sister yet."

If Zhou Ying could participate in the Changtian Secret Realm, then Chen Ping would have one more person on his side, and Chen Ping would be able to collect more resources.
