The Path to Immortality

"Is it another illusion?"

Fang Ping immediately became alert.

But no matter how he checked, he found nothing abnormal.

After a slight hesitation, Fang Ping swallowed a fine Bingxin Pill with pill patterns on its surface, and then, protected by the power of the pill, he leaned over cautiously.

The demonic energy that should have been strong actually became thinner as he slowly advanced.

The originally dark vision gradually became less oppressive and more bright.

The crisp, gurgling sound of water gradually became clearer.

Fang Ping suddenly thought of a possibility, his mood agitated, and he quickened his pace slightly.

After passing through the last layer of mist and an unfathomable underground crack that stretched for hundreds of feet, the terrain ahead suddenly became clear.

A tiny gap opened in the void about two feet above the ground under the influence of invisible force.

The Dao Laws of the Demon Realm and the vast Immortal Dao Laws of this world blend and collide with each other, stimulating a series of deep and mysterious Dao rhymes, vaguely showing visions like blue clouds, rotating at a slow speed.

Under this collision and the blending of Taoist rhyme, there are light cyan "dewdrops" slowly dripping from the cracks in the void, accumulating into a small pool of clear spring on the ground.

The clear spring is not touched by the mortal world and shines with mysterious aura.

Just seeing it from a distance made Fang Ping feel a strong throbbing and longing deep in his soul.

"Qingyun vision? Soul-condensing dew!"

Through that iconic vision and the feelings of his soul, Fang Ping almost immediately confirmed the types of heavenly materials and earthly treasures in front of him.

It was exactly the three main ingredients of the Foundation Establishment Pill that I was looking for!

"I actually found it!"

After looking around and confirming that there was no danger nearby, Fang Ping, who was overjoyed, rushed forward quickly.

Take out the jade bottles prepared in advance from the storage bag and collect them carefully.

Perhaps the cracks in the void here and the soul-condensing dew flowing out appeared with the violent impact of demonic energy not long ago. The amount of soul-condensing dew accumulated at the moment is extremely limited.

Even if Fang Ping put away all the soul-condensing dew that had been produced, it would only fill half of the jade bottle.

Based on his speculations on the foundation-building pill formula, he knew that this amount of soul-condensing dew was definitely not enough to refine a furnace of foundation-building pills.

The bottle must be filled at least 80% to meet the minimum requirement!

Realizing that he still needed to wait patiently for a long time, Fang Ping took out the formation flags of the [Small Magic Light Array] from his storage bag and quickly arranged them around.

As the formation flags were in place, Fang Ping placed enough spirit stones in the formation's eyes, and then activated the formation.

Following his control, the flags of the small phantom light array lit up with psychedelic light, and as the restrictions on them resonated with each other, activating the power of heaven and earth, in the blink of an eye, the surrounding world changed.

Within a radius of dozens of feet, it seemed as if it was covered by light black mist again, and Fang Ping's figure and the soul-condensing dew dripping in the void could no longer be seen.

The effect of the top-grade basic formation is trustworthy, and Fang Ping, an apprentice formation master, is in charge of the control. Unless a foundation-building demon happens to be passing by nearby, there is no need to worry about the flaws and clues being discovered.

With the protection of this formation, Fang Ping felt a little at ease.

Holding a spiritual stone in hand, I meditated to recover my mana and waited patiently.

Time passed bit by bit.

Unknowingly, the soul-condensing dew dripping from the void filled most of the jade bottle.

During this period, at least six or seven demons and alien beasts wandered by nearby, but none of them could see through the cover of the illusory formation.

Fang Ping, whose mana had basically recovered, had nothing to do for the time being, so he stared blankly at the slowly dripping Soul Condensing Dew.

To him at this moment, these light blue spiritual fluids were the most beautiful things in the world.

Every drop represents one more hope for his success in foundation building!

But at this moment, the demonic energy in Qingyuan City stirred up again.

The level this time was not as intense as the previous one.

But I don’t know if it was affected by this, and the original delicate balance was broken. The crack in the void in front of Fang plane seemed to be showing signs of instability.

The speed at which Soul Condensing Dew is condensed is also imperceptibly slower!

At first, Fang Ping thought it was his illusion.

After the cup of tea, when the speed of soul-condensing dew production further slowed down, and even this crack in the void showed signs of being closed again, Fang Ping was really a little anxious now.

"Faster! Faster!"

He looked at the jade bottle that was about to be 80% full, and secretly urged it in his heart.

Under Fang Ping's anxious gaze, drops of light cyan soul-condensing dew slowly fell unmoved, gradually exceeding the 80% limit.

"Huh~"

At this moment, Fang Ping could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

This quantity has already met the bottom line for refining a furnace of Foundation-Building Pills, but the quality of the refined Foundation-Building Pills may be slightly worse.

However, Fang Ping has the Yuanding, a treasure that can compensate for the quality of the finished pill to a certain extent through repeated refining and fine-tuning of other medicinal ingredients in the pill formula.

"There is hope in building the foundation, there is hope in building the foundation!"

Fang Ping's excitement was simply difficult to describe in words.

However, he did not forget that this place was located deep in the crisis-ridden Qingyuan City. Overly intense emotions may attract demons. I immediately tried to clear my mind and try my best to calm down.

From now on, every drop he collects will be an unexpected surprise for him.

After collecting about six or seven drops of Soul Condensing Dew, the void crack that was originally three feet long has now shortened and closed to just one foot, and is still dissipating at an accelerated speed!

Finally.

As the dripping Soul Condensing Dew approached the mouth of the bottle, the void crack in front of him suddenly disappeared.

The profound and mysterious Dao rhyme and the blue cloud-like vision that appeared around him all dissipated along with it, as if no natural treasures had ever appeared here.

"There is even a bottle of this. It seems that today's luck has been used up at this moment!"

Fang Ping secretly praised, quickly sealed the mouth of the jade bottle, and applied a double seal on the outside, and then put the jade bottle filled with Soul Condensing Dew into the storage bag.

With the key main material in hand, this mission can be said to be successfully completed. Fang Ping no longer has any nostalgia for Qingyuan City.

He put away the formation flag without hesitation, ready to leave immediately, and never come again!

Unexpectedly, good things take time.

Almost at the same time, footsteps were heard not far away.

"Are there really natural treasures here?"

A voice that Fang Ping found familiar sounded.

"Don't worry, Chongdao. The treasure-hunting rat that your uncle raised is extremely sensitive to the scent of natural treasures. Since it smells something unusual here, there must be something good... Who?"

The old voice was speaking just as Fang Ping was putting away the small phantom light array.

Feeling the changes in the power of heaven and earth when the array ended, as well as the aura of the human cultivator who suddenly appeared, the old man was startled and shouted.

The next moment, three figures rushed out of the black demonic energy.

"Xu Chongdao?"

Seeing the person clearly, Fang Ping's originally good mood suddenly became a little gloomy.

He didn't expect that these three people could find this place.

Luckily, he came a step earlier and had already collected all the [Soul Condensing Dew].

Otherwise, it would be hard to say what would happen.
