There's Something Wrong With My Immortal Path

Chapter 86: My Path is Not Alone

Inside the alchemy cave, the master and disciple were having a lively time.

Outside the alchemy cave, the eagle-eyed Xuan Niao could see through everything.

Holding the blood oath compass in his hand, Xuan Niao's eyes widened.

Just now, with the assistance of the blood oath compass, the Nascent Soul Late Stage Xuan Niao sensed a slight abnormality in the soul fluctuations.

Looking towards the location of the alchemy cave, with the help of her inherited keen eyes, Xuan Niao saw a horrifying scene.

The auspicious clouds hung in the sky, connecting the earth and the heavens.

A beam of light enveloped in auspicious clouds shot straight into the sky!

If it weren't for the fleeting nature of the beam of light, Xuan Niao would have thought that an immortal had appeared in this damn place!

Since it wasn't an immortal, there was only one possibility.

Someone inside the alchemy cave had achieved enlightenment!

The soul connected with heaven and earth, achieving unity of man and nature. This was a moment of enlightenment!

Who was achieving enlightenment?

What kind of enlightenment did he achieve?

Could it be Qing Dan He Nian Sheng?

Is he about to ascend to become a Great Grandmaster of alchemy?

After much hesitation, Xuan Niao ultimately did not enter the alchemy cave.

Disturbing the snake in the grass would not be beautiful; she couldn't ruin the Crown Prince's plan.

Looking at the two small red dots on the blood oath compass, Xuan Niao clenched her fist tightly.

One day, she would eliminate this pair of rebellious cultivators!

Those who disrespect immortals deserve to die!

...

Inside the alchemy cave, the master looked at his disciple lying on the ground with a complex expression.

Since taking the second generation Blood Pill, He Nian Sheng found himself becoming more impulsive.

Seeing the slightly reddened face of Xia Ming, He Nian Sheng regretted it. He shouldn't have slapped him.

Seeing the pain between Xia Ming's eyebrows, He Nian Sheng finally fed him all the Flowing Light from the jade bottle.

In less than an hour, the effects of the second generation Blood Pill had dissipated.

After a while, Xia Ming slowly propped himself up.

Everything that just happened felt like a dream.

Recalling the strange laughter of those cranes, Xia Ming felt a chill run down his spine.

That damn "Becoming an Immortal Song" seemed to be playing on repeat in his mind!

What the hell was that?

Although the effects of the second generation Blood Pill had worn off, the effects of the first generation Blood Pill were still active in Xia Ming's body.

So...

Xia Ming clearly remembered everything that just happened!

He remembered his crazy words, he remembered the Great Dao of becoming an immortal that he deduced.

He remembered the enticing words of his master, He Nian Sheng, and he remembered every look in his master's eyes.

He especially remembered his master's slap.

The Blood Pill, it was truly marvelous.

Slowly raising his head, Xia Ming quietly looked at He Nian Sheng in front of him.

Qing Dan Tai Shang, black robe and white hair, eyes like black dots, with a gloomy temperament.

It had to be said that He Nian Sheng was an extremely charismatic person.

As Xia Ming looked at He Nian Sheng, He Nian Sheng also slowly looked at Xia Ming.

The master and disciple locked eyes, and it was He Nian Sheng who broke the silence first.

"Xia Ming, you've fallen into demonic cultivation."

Exhaling a long breath, Xia Ming touched his reddened face.

"What the master said is true, I've fallen into demonic cultivation. I won't hide it from the master, I actually saw immortal cranes coming to pick me up."

"Those immortal cranes are fine in every way, except that they talk too much and annoy people."

"Hahaha..."

Looking at Xia Ming, who was laughing foolishly in front of him, He Nian Sheng also felt a sense of complexity.

Dreams of the Yellow Emperor, immortals descending, and the Ascension Powder!

At this moment, He Nian Sheng had to admit.

He was not as Daoist as Xia Ming.

Ascending to become an immortal was not easy.

But as long as he could obtain the blood of the Qilin, it would all be worth it.

Seeing He Nian Sheng's reaction, Xia Ming, under the influence of the Blood Pill, quickly reviewed the situation.

He wanted to figure out what had happened and where those foolish birds had come from.

In just a few moments, Xia Ming had a few ideas in his mind.

1. The illusion of the immortal cranes was a side effect of the second generation Blood Pill, which brought enlightenment but also magnified inner fears.

2. Either the second generation Blood Pill was tampered with by He Niansheng, or He Niansheng poisoned it!

3. The combination of the first and second generation Blood Pills really showed him something extraordinary!

Putting aside the silly bird's question, there is one thing Xia Ming is absolutely certain about.

His master, He Niansheng, made a move against him.

He Niansheng took advantage of his momentary lapse in reason and began probing his secrets.

He Niansheng wants to know what he really saw.

He Niansheng wants to know what he has realized.

But what makes Xia Ming laugh and cry is that He Niansheng ended up slapping him unconscious.

Looking at He Niansheng in front of him, Xia Ming's eyes flashed with a complex expression.

Master, oh master.

I really told you the truth.

I really realized a path to immortality.

Why don't you believe me?

It seems...

This is my path to immortality, not yours.

As if sensing something, the gazes of the master and disciple once again intertwined.

One like a dormant snake, profound and captivating.

One like a lone wolf, cold and vigilant. Under the calmness, a wild fire rages.

Both of them have a premonition that their relationship can never go back to what it was before.

The porcelain cracks, the silk tears.

An invisible rift quietly stretches between the two.

Once something is created, it can never be healed.

...

"Master, disciple has an earnest request."

"But speak freely."

"Disciple wants to see the complete Great River Formula. Perhaps disciple can find a way to break through Foundation Building."

The Qi Refining Formula Xia Ming obtained was derived from the Great River Qi Refining Formula.

He Niansheng's ancestral cultivation technique naturally wouldn't stop at the Qi Refining stage.

After the Great River Qi Refining Formula, there must be cultivation techniques for Foundation Building and even Core Formation stage.

Now that Xia Ming has successfully built his foundation, he needs further cultivation techniques.

The best choice is this Great River Formula, after all, Xia Ming's cultivation at the Qi Refining stage is based on it.

After deeply looking at Xia Ming, He Niansheng directly handed over the complete "Great River Formula" to Xia Ming.

He Niansheng's decisiveness far exceeded Xia Ming's expectations.

If the roles were reversed, Xia Ming might not have been able to do the same.

Thinking of this, Xia Ming respectfully bowed.

This bow, to his master.

After Xia Ming bowed, He Niansheng said slowly,

"Xia Ming, I need your blood to perfect the Blood Pill."

Without any hesitation, Xia Ming directly handed over a full bottle to He Niansheng.

Looking deeply into Xia Ming's dark eyes, waves rose in He Niansheng's heart.

Good kid, he's really growing bit by bit.

Being cautious as a cultivator is not a problem.

But what cultivators should possess is a fearless Dao heart.

Even if facing millions of people, I will still go forward.

Why fear those conspiracies, schemes... How can one grow without experiencing them?

Entering the path of immortality, there will be strong winds and heavy rain, mountains collapsing and the earth splitting, but it's just mud rolling under your feet.

Contending with heaven and earth, vying for eternal life in the cycle of reincarnation!

Even if it's an immortal descending to the mortal world!

I dare to calculate three points!

What's the use of being afraid!

He Niansheng looked at Xia Ming now and suddenly laughed.

Good.

My path is not lonely.

...

After the bloodletting, Xia Ming respectfully wanted to leave.

He Niansheng gently waved his hand and kept him.

"Disciple, today your master will teach you alchemy. Learn well, you will need it in the future."

"Disciple thanks Master."

Inside the alchemy cave, master and disciple sat facing each other.

Respecting each other like guests.
