Immortality: My cultivation Has No Bottleneck

Chapter 178 - 116: Kidnapping Chen Sheng, Mantis catching the Cicada (Seeking Monthly Tickets)



Market.

One month had passed since Liang Sheng had changed his plans. At this point, he had transitioned from a loose cultivation alchemist to a guest alchemist at an outer store of Hua Tian Sect’s Market.

Name: Liang Sheng

Age: 567

Talent: Innocent Foolishness (Top grade)

Techniques: Upper Pure Immortal Scripture (10th Layer), Twenty Life-Nurturing Techniques (19th Layer), Nail-Head Seven Arrows Technique (Curse)

Realm: Early Foundation Establishment Stage

Lifespan: 21164

While Liang Sheng’s cultivation level remained the same without any improvements, he was not overwhelmed by any urgency. His heart was more at peace due to the adjustment of his previous plans.

Considering his current identity as Chen Sheng, he had several decades to strategize. If he were fortunate enough, he might receive information about the Golden Yuan Pill Formula.

Even if his luck was not that great, it would not matter. At the very least, he had managed to gain some valuable experience that would provide a better basis for implementing his next plan.

For Liang Sheng, time was never a problem, just as he was never worried about cultivation bottlenecks. His only key to breaking through to the Jin Dan Stage was the Golden Core.

As for Fu Liantao and his partner, after their failed attempt to enlist the help of Liang Sheng, they could only accept their reality. Wang Kuo had no choice but to refine pills himself, but the result was transparent.

Ultimately, the attempt to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill had failed.

Fortunately, after the failed attempt of enlisting Liang’s help, Fu Liantao and the others had prepared themselves mentally for this defeat.

They attributed their failure to their poor luck and personally escorted Wang Kuo back. Wang Kuo specifically visited Liang Sheng to express his regret, to which Liang Sheng naturally responded that all was well.

However, upon returning, Wang Kuo felt out of place among the group of alchemists. He wondered why, despite his repeated recommendations, Liang Sheng had been forced to join the sect.

Due to this, Liang Sheng, who was no longer independent, could not meet them frequently for discussions like before.

Therefore, after staying in the market for a few days, Wang Kuo sadly left the Market a month ago.

It is said that he went to another market in the area under the jurisdiction of the Three Sects and Six Orders to start anew. Since then, there has been no news of Wang Kuo.

Market, Hua Tian Sect’s store.

At this point in time, Liang Sheng was in the process of refining Qi Refining Pills. This was a part of the contract he had signed with Hua Tian Sect as a guest elder. Of course, at this time, he was not using his full strength to refine the pills.

Shortly after, a fragrant aroma filled the air. Yang Zhaoyu, who had been sitting not far away, couldn’t help but stand up, revealing a bright smile on his face.

With just a whiff of the pill fragrance, he knew that these must be Qi Refining Pills of at least middle grade quality. Chen Sheng, renowned in the market as a pill maniac, truly had an amazing alchemy skill!

These were already the third batch of Qi Refining Pills that Liang Sheng had refined in the last month. With this, Liang Sheng’s performance could be considered perfect.

A batch of high grade, two batches of middle grade, his performance was incredibly stable.

Yang Zhaoyu was just about to bring Liang Sheng a cup of tea with a smile on his face, especially since Liang Sheng had already exceeded the tasks he had assigned for the month.

However, someone else had already taken the initiative. Seeing this, he didn’t persist but he had no other thoughts because this person was Zhou Kang.

At this point, Liang Sheng was looking at Zhou Kang, who was coming over with a smile. He couldn’t help but marvel at the wonders of fate and cause-effect in the world. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration popped into his head, which excited him greatly. However, when he tried to grab onto that fleeting feeling, he couldn’t quite capture it, which left him with a sense of regret.

“Alchemist Chen?”

Zhou Kang’s smiling face froze, seeing Liang Sheng’s reaction, he was taken aback. He had just come over to say hello, why the unusual response?

Luckily, Liang Sheng soon regained his composure and smiled, “Brother Zhou, is there something you need?”

Zhou Kang quickly shook his head,” Nothing in particular. 1 just wanted to come over and have a chat with Daoist Chen.”

For some reason, Zhou Kang felt that Chen Sheng was extraordinary. Under the effects of the Auspicious Ability to Avoid Evil, he couldn’t help but want to get closer to Chen Sheng.

Although he was only at the Qi Cultivation 8th Layer State, compared to Chen Sheng’s Qi Cultivation Fivefold, he was already out of reach.

Additionally, given his status as a sect disciple, he was curious as to why he would still consider Chen Sheng as a sign of great fortune?

This was confusing for him but naturally, Zhou Kang would not ignore such feelings. The Zhou Family’s disciples would never question their instincts, otherwise, how would he have smoothly reached the Qi Cultivation 8th Layer State?

Not to mention the three clan members who had successfully reached the Foundation Establishment stage. They too had discussed privately that their fortune was largely due to their bloodline abilities which allowed them to encounter opportunities and establish a successful foundation.

This bloodline ability was their fortune in disguise.

After hearing Zhou Kang’s suggestion for a chat, Liang Sheng naturally would not refuse. After observing for a month, he clearly understood Zhou Kang’s status in the Hua Tian Sect’s store.

Since Zhou Kang was fond of him, why would he want to dismiss Zhou’s advances? After all, Liang Sheng intended to establish a good relationship with everyone in the store, from top to bottom.

After all, he had only one goal, and that was to acquire the Golden Yuan Pill formula.

Just then, an alchemist from the sect in charge of the store ran over, incessantly saying, “Daoist Chen, could you take a look at where I went wrong? The furnace that 1 was using to refine the spiritual pills exploded again.”

As soon as the words fell, the man ran in. It was only then that he noticed Zhou Kang there and hurriedly made a respectful bow. Being a disciple of the sect, he naturally treated Zhou Kang with utmost respect..
