Chapter 142: Chapter 142: Level Two Immortal Pill 1

“Dissolving the alliance is quite simple, just find any pretext, there’s no need to tell the truth.” Qi Wuhun said.

The truth was too frightening and could cause upheaval in the Southern Domain.

Mu Xingzhi nodded, “The Ten Thousand Evils Cave has already shrunk back into hiding, and their whereabouts are unknown, this reason should be enough.”

“If we don’t make a move, those from the Ten Thousand Evils Cave won’t act rashly either, but it’s bad news if the Ten Thousand Evils Cave has set its sights on our sect.”

To help the Evil Master escape Iris binds, those people from Ten Thousand Evils Cave will surely come to the Heavenly Mechanism Sect in secret. If they can’t find the Sect Master’s son for a long time, they might go to extremes!

“It’s also unknown where the powerful entity that Ten Thousand Evils Cave fears is hiding. If we could find him and ask him to step forward, things would be much easier,” Old Bai said.

Feng Wanli looked at Li Cheng and transmitted a message to him, “You can ask that person, he might know.”

Feng Wanli was naturally referring to Immortal Emperor Tianyuan.

Li Cheng did not respond to Feng Wanli, because Immortal Emperor Tianyuan had perished too long ago and wouldn’t know where such a powerful entity was hidden.

“With a mysterious powerful entity to deter them, even if the people from Ten Thousand Evils Cave come to our sect, they’ll only search in secret and not dare to go to extremes. We don’t need to worry.”

Black Elder said this with a laugh, “Besides, I suspect that the Sect Master’s son doesn’t even know his own identity. In this way, Ten Thousand Evils Cave is actually coming to help!”

Although it was said in jest, there was some truth to it, and no one argued.

Qi Wuhun glanced at Feng Wanli and then at Li Cheng, clearing his throat, “Since this matter seems to be settled for now, I wonder if Master Li has some free time? I’d like to ask for your help!”

Feng Wanli, not waiting for Li Cheng to speak, hurriedly said, “Don’t rush, the opening of Tianyuan City is imminent, let’s go to Tianyuan City first!”

He knew that Qi Wuhun and the other Confucian Immortals wanted to find the Four-sided Lamp Fire Map, and he had said he would ask Li Cheng for help, but now was not the time.

Having waited so long to see Tianyuan City, how could he go in search of the Four-sided Lamp Fire Map at this time?

Qi Wuhun, without any choice, could only agree with Feng Wanli, nodding, “That’s true, and the opening of Tianyuan City could also help to mitigate the adverse effects of dissolving the alliance.”

Mu Xingzhi’s eyes lit up, “Senior Qi’s words are wise, I will handle it right away!”

Li Cheng turned to Feng Wanli, “Then let’s go to Taoist Mysterious Sect first!” “No, little uncle, the leader of the Hundred Calamities Commerce Union is also there, and he has been wanting to meet you, waiting for over two months now,” Mu Xingzhi quickly said.

The Hundred Calamities Commerce Union, as the rumors said, was established by the disciples of Grand Venerable Bai Jie, hence the name ‘Bai Jie.’

After his trip to Devil Abyss, Li Cheng understood why Ten Thousand Evils Cave was so ruthless against Hundred Calamities Commerce Union; it was because Grand Venerable Bai Jie suppressed the Evil Master!

“Is the leader of the Hundred Calamities Commerce Union a disciple of Grand Venerable Bai Jie?” Li Cheng asked curiously.

Mu Xingzhi promptly shook his head, “It’s said that the previous leader was a disciple of Grand Venerable Bai Jie, but who exactly it was, no one is certain. As for the current leader, he is the son of the former leader.”

Li Cheng pondered. If that was the case, for Ten Thousand Evils Cave to ascertain the identity of the Sect Master’s son, the former leader of the Hundred Calamities Commerce Union would be a perfect leads.

Being a disciple of Grand Venerable, he would definitely know the identity of the Sect Master’s son.

If so, it was worth meeting with him. If he could introduce Li Cheng to the former leader, it would be ideal.

Thinking this, Li Cheng nodded, “Then let’s meet!”

Mu Xingzhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Establishing good ties with the Hundred Calamities Commerce Union would be beneficial for the sect without any drawbacks, and as the Sect Master, he naturally had to consider the bigger picture, hoping the little uncle would meet with them.

Before long, Mu Xingzhi led a middle-aged man up to the summit of the Eighteenth Peak.

The middle-aged man had white at his temples and eyes like bright stars, his presence as elegant as jade. Upon seeing Li Cheng, a smiling expression appeared on his handsome face as he cupped his hands and said, “I have long admired the great name of Master Li. My name is Chu Jianghan. It is a pleasure to meet you, Master Li!”

Li Cheng returned the gesture and, with a smile that went straight to the point, said, “President Chu has sought me out, may I know the matter at hand?”

Chu Jianghan was somewhat surprised and again clasped his hands in greeting, “Master Li is straightforward, so Chu will speak directly. I have come to visit for two reasons: first, out of my profound respect for Master Li and second, to request the crafting of an Immortal Pill to extend my father’s lifespan.” As he spoke, Chu Jianghan presented a storage ring with both hands, “This is a token of my esteem, I hope Master Li will kindly accept it.”

Li Cheng subtly raised an eyebrow, “Immortal Pill?”

Chu Jianghan nodded, “The world says that the Kunlun Realm cannot produce Immortal Pills, but there are always exceptions. Chu believes that aside from Grand Venerable Bai Jie, only Master Li is capable of crafting Immortal Pills, hence, I hope iMaster Li can assist Chu in this matter.”

Grand Venerable Bai Jie was also an alchemist? And he had managed to produce Immortal Pills in the Kunlun Realm?

This was indeed the first time he had heard of such a thing.

However, since Grand Venerable Bai Jie was Chu Jianghan’s mentor, it was normal for him to know things that others did not.

Li Cheng glanced at the storage ring, a gift from the president of the Hundred Calamities Commerce Union undoubtedly was no simple item.

Yet Li Cheng did not accept it and smiled, “President Chu might be disappointed, I have never attempted to craft an Immortal Pill and have no confidence in doing so.”

Despite saying so, Li Cheng knew he should be able to do it, much like crafting Immortal Artifacts. Since Immortal Artifacts were not restricted by the Order of Heaven and Earth, then Immortal Pills must surely be the same.

But he could not say that outright.

“As long as Master Li is willing to try, whether it is successful or not, Chu will have no regrets or complaints,” said Chu Jianghan.

Li Cheng smiled, “Then let’s give it a try. There’s no need for a thank-you gift. If it is successful, I hope President Chu can help answer a few questions of mine.”

A look of surprise flashed in Chu Jianghan’s eyes, considering questions as a thank-you gift?

Though he did not know what Li Cheng intended to ask, it was certainly no trivial matter.

Without hesitation, Chu Jianghan clasped his hands, “Chu will withhold nothing!”

Li Cheng nodded, “The ingredients!”

Chu Jianghan once again produced a storage ring. Besides a pill recipe, it contained more than sixty types of Immortal Elixirs!

The emergence of just one kind of Immortal Elixir would be a world-shaking event, yet the Hundred Calamities Commerce Union had gathered so many!

But then, Li Cheng thought it certain that the Hundred Calamities Commerce Union must have discovered some Ancient Ruins.

Only in the Ancient Ruins could one find so many Immortal Elixirs.

“Lifespan Extension Pill, a second-grade Immortal Pill, President Chu really has posed me a challenge!” Li Cheng said with a smile as he examined the pill recipe.

Since he had not received the legacy of an Immortal Master of Alchemy, crafting an Immortal Pill at will was probably not possible; he would have to follow the pill recipe.

With the backing of his powerful Immortal Sense and Immortal Fire, there should not be a problem.

“It’s a great honor for Master Li to do this,” said Chu Jianghan with an embarrassed smile.

Just then, the Seventh Elder rushed over, “Might I be permitted to observe the process, Junior Uncle?”

Clearly, Mu Xingzhi had sent him a message.

Watching Li Cheng craft pills in the past was always on a large scale, but this was different—this was the crafting of an Immortal Pill!

As an alchemist, how could he afford to miss out?

The Seventh Elder landed beside Mu Xingzhi, bowed to Li Cheng, and gave Mu Xingzhi a look of gratitude.

Li Cheng smiled, “Then let’s begin!”
