Chapter 62: Preparing to Refine the Elixir
Thank you, Village Chief, Cold-blooded Yan Luo, and the several big shots who rewarded me. [By the way, I'd like to ask for a collection, please kindly collect my book, friends who are passing by, hehe]
——————————————
Just as Yun Shan's emotions were out of control and his spiritual power was leaking out, figures began to enter the cave where he was cultivating.
Yun Fengfeng, Yun Lu, and Zhou Qing, all three of them appeared almost at the same time.
"Master? What's going on?"
"Dad, what's wrong?"
"Shan Ge, I feel like your emotions are fluctuating wildly, what's going on?"
As soon as they appeared, they asked in unison, their faces tense.
Cloudy mountains wave goodbye, with a smile on his face.
"Don't be nervous, it's a good thing. Wang Qian is back and his trip has yielded great results. He actually obtained the legendary Undying Grass, which means I have hope of regrowing my severed arm."
He tried to appear calm, but the scorching light in his eyes revealed his current excitement.
"What? Is it really the Undying Grass?"
Zhou Qing's face turned bright red, and only then did he realize that Wang Qian was standing beside him. He hastily rushed up a few steps, tightly grasping Wang Qian's arm with immense force, as if he wanted to snap it off.
Wang Qian was very pleased, and he understood Zhou Qing's loss of composure. His senior brother had almost been raised by Yunshan from a young age in the Qingyun Gate and taken as an apprentice, their relationship was even deeper than Wang Qian's, almost like that of father and son.
A group of people became excited.
If Yunling Peak is compared to a big family, then Yunshan is the patriarch of this family. The better his condition, the more prosperous the family will be. If he weakens, the glory of Yunling Peak will also fade away. This is a very superficial truth.
The matter of refining the Nirvana Dan was not something that could be accomplished in a short time, so Yun Shan gave orders to set up wine and food, various spiritual fruits were placed on trays, several large gourds of spiritual wine were also brought out by Yun Shan, these wines were brewed from countless spiritual materials and had been stored for tens or hundreds of years, extremely precious, normally Yun Shan wouldn't even drink them, but today he was too excited, willing to spare no expense.
Soon, Wang Dao, Zhao Changqing, Huang Zheng, Zhao Kuang, Li Haoran, and even the woman Li Meng also rushed to Yunling Peak.
Celebrate, celebrate grandly, this kind of revelry has not been seen at Yunling Peak for a long time.
The moon is high in the sky, and a silvery white light pours down, calming Cloud Spirit Peak.
Wang Qian returned to his own secluded stone cave, slowly calming his mood and polishing his skills.
He and Yun Shan discussed it, and decided to start refining the Nirvana Pill the next day. This pill was extraordinary, with a strong effect, not only could it regenerate severed limbs, but for many people, more importantly, it could increase their lifespan by two hundred years.
Life expectancy is an eternal topic in the cultivation world. Only with a long and prosperous life can one have more time to improve their cultivation, ultimately embarking on the path of longevity.
A lifespan of two hundred years is not a small amount, just like the old ancestor of the Feng family who has now reached the peak of the Jie Dan realm. However, with his lifespan running out, even if he had confidence in achieving immortality, it would still be too late for him. This kind of desperation is the most heartbreaking thing in the cultivation world.
Wang Qian didn't have too many ideas. Yun Shan's lifespan hadn't reached a critical point yet, and there was still plenty of time left. What was important to him now was to regenerate his severed limbs.
This night, Yunling Peak was filled with excitement and joy, but some places in Qingyun Gate were also not calm.
Near the main peak of the Qingyun Mountain Range, in a refined cottage at the summit of Qingyun Peak, a majestic and cold middle-aged man sat cross-legged on a cloud bed. Below him, a young disciple with a handsome face was reporting some news in detail.
"Father, I heard that something big happened on Yunling Peak today. Wang Qian, the disciple of Yunshan, has come down from the mountain and actually obtained the legendary Undying Grass to refine the Nirvana Pill for him, wanting to regenerate his severed limbs."
This young man, even in front of his father, did not dare to be the slightest bit presumptuous, but was extremely cautious and respectful.
These two people belong to a very powerful family in Qingyunmen, the Jiang family.
Middle-aged man, that is Jiang Hai, is the elder of the Qingyun Gate's penal law, holding the power to decide life and death in his hands, with a majestic and stern demeanor, just sitting there quietly gives off an aura of a ferocious beast lurking.
Young Jiang Hai's son, Jiang Zichen, cultivated to the realm of Building Foundation Great Perfection and was a top-notch core disciple.
They're now talking about Wang Qian getting the news of the Undying Grass.
"Undying grass? That's a divine medicine that can increase one's lifespan by 200 years, it's a legend, and no one knows how long it has been since it last appeared on the Tianyuan continent. Zichen, you've done a great job with this matter, this news is too important, if your grandfather can obtain an undying grass, he'll be able to live for another 200 years, and will definitely break through to the realm of immortality, becoming the only immortal cultivator in Qingyun Gate, at that time, my Jiang family will have complete control over Qingyun Gate, unstoppable and unchallenged, even if we were to gather all the senior elders and re-elect a new leader, it wouldn't be impossible."
Jiang Hai's face was solemn and his eyes shone brightly in the dark room, as if flashes of lightning were streaking across.
"Yes, father, isn't Cloud Mountain just a crippled arm? It won't die, so let's directly bring that Undying Grass over and have Grandfather use it. This is the true meaning of using things to their fullest potential. When I, Qingyun Gate, produce an immortal realm elder, that will be prosperity and flourishing. What right does Cloud Mountain, a mere Yuantai realm cultivator, have to use the Undying Grass?"
Jiang Zichen's face turned gloomy, and he spoke out a vicious plan.
Jiang Hai sank into thought for a moment, and also felt that his son was right. Something like the legendary divine medicine "Undying Grass" wasn't something that a cultivator of Yun Shan's level could be worthy of.
"Alright, Zi Chen, tomorrow you bring the law enforcement disciples to Yun Ling Peak and let Yun Shan hand over the Undying Grass. This divine medicine will be best utilized if contributed to the sect. His severed arm is nothing compared to the rise and fall of the entire Qing Yun Sect!"
Jiang Hai's tone was serious and seemingly impartial, but in reality he was using public power for personal gain, and actually wanted Yun Shan to directly contribute the Undying Grass to the sect.
"Yes, Father, I will definitely get this done!"
Jiang Zichen and Jiang Hai exchanged a few words in the dimly lit room before leaving, apparently to gather more people. They would wait until dawn before heading to Yunling Peak to retrieve the Undying Grass.
The next day, Wang Gan's mood was calm and peaceful, exuding a tranquil aura. He was unmoved by praise or blame, as if Mount Tai were to crumble before him without changing his expression. After a night of meditation, he had calmed his mind, cutting off all distractions, and returned to a state of perfection.
In the stone cave of Yunshan's cultivation, the people of Yunling Peak gathered together, and Wang Dao and five others also came.
They and Wang Gan, Zhou Qing's relationship is close, at this time, appearing here, is also a common thing.
"Master, I've made all the preparations, this time I'll definitely be able to refine the Nirvana Pill!"
Wang Qian's face was calm and confident.
"Alright, you stay here and refine the elixir, we'll all go out and guard the law."
It relates to whether he can regenerate his limbs, Yunshan also starts to be strict and severe, with a single order, everyone retreats and gathers at the entrance of the stone cave, starting to guard Wang Qian.
"Bi Fang, the refinement of Nirvana Dan is up to you now."
Wang Qian gave a faint order, and a miniature bird flew out from the clothes on his chest, shaking its head and swaying back and forth, apparently it had been sleeping just now.
After being startled awake by Wang Qian, he felt extremely displeased. He let out a yawn and a golden flame burst forth, burning a hole in the void. Wang Qian's scalp tingled with fear as his desire for increased power grew stronger. Having such an ancestor by his side made him tremble with fear, and compared to this old bird, his own cultivation was far too lacking.
"Hmph, Wang Qian, you little brat! Isn't it just a Nirvana Pill? I can easily refine one myself, but didn't you tell your master that you could refine it yourself? Why are you asking me to lend a hand now? Heh heh?"
Wang Gan was speechless. Indeed, his words in front of Yun Shan were based on his own experience of refining a strand of immortal realm's demonic energy. For this level of power, he had some understanding and refining a Nirvana Pill would not be a problem. Yun Shan had been watching Wang Gan grow step by step for so long, and he had a blind confidence in him, without carefully asking questions.
But in reality, although Wang Qian is right, this time the Nirvana Dan is too important. With his half-baked methods, there's an 80% chance he'll end up ruining the medicine.
It's just that with Old Man Bi by his side, he has such confidence. But as for the truth of the matter, he naturally wouldn't say it out loud.
"Hmph, I'll definitely be able to refine it with absolute certainty, and I absolutely won't ask you for help!"
He snorted, and Wang Qian stopped paying attention to this old bird. For such a long time, he had already understood Bi Fang's temperament. This old bird, if you really get into an argument with him, it will never end. On the contrary, if you don't take it too seriously, everything will be easy to handle.
One word can be used to describe the character of this old bird, and that is "despicable"!
This idea was just murmured in Wang Qian's heart and absolutely could not be spoken out loud, otherwise he would definitely be roasted.
