Chapter 3003: Watching the Show
o have no fear at all. Hundreds of them were just a drop in the bucket for such a massive swarm. The monkey slapped wildly a few times, and then dozens of black beetles crawled up its arms and legs, b...After the medicinal power within the cauldron stabilized, Lu Xiaocen began to carefully and methodically add other celestial herbs into it. The cauldron was filled with celestial spirit and Taoist essence. Even just immersing his divine sense within it allowed Lu Xiaocen to sense an astonishing medicinal power. His divine sense, following the rising celestial medicinal power within the cauldron, seemed as though his entire being had been elevated to a certain degree.
The entire person seemed to be immersed in a strange feeling. His consciousness had improved to a certain extent compared to before, but the growth of his internal essence was extremely slight. Moreover, with the delay in the alchemy process, this growth continued to slow down.
Lu Xiaitian was startled at first. He didn't expect that refining this Huiling Changjie Dan would actually lead to a slight increase in his cultivation. This situation was the first time he had encountered it since he had grown from a junior alchemist step by step.
Although he didn't understand the reason, it was a good thing nonetheless. Lu Xia Tian continued to focus his attention on the inner furnace. At the same time, his whole being immersed in the marvelous feeling of his divine consciousness and fairy essence growing ever so slightly.
At this time, Lu Xia Tian's heart seemed to touch upon another level he had never encountered before, one that was both lively and mysterious. However, Lu Xia Tian had a feeling that this growth didn't seem to provide much tangible help in terms of fighting prowess, especially at his current realm. But regarding the changes within the elixir furnace containing Xian Yun, Lu Xia Tian's perception was noticeably clearer than before, as if every movement within the furnace was under his control.
"Could this be a change that only occurs when an alchemist's cultivation level improves" As the medicinal liquid in the cauldron gradually balanced, Lu Xia Tian had another thought. After all, he had never encountered such a thing before.
But soon the air inside the cauldron began to surge wildly. At this moment, outside the Minghu Villa, swathes of dark clouds gathered within a radius of hundreds of miles. The rolling thunder and the howling wind had already attracted the attention of countless people in Tacu City.
"Another cultivator is crossing the tribulation to ascend to the Immortal realm."
"Hmm, a single step and he ascended to immortality. From now on, immortal pills are different. This is truly stepping into another level of cultivation. Only by reaching the level of an immortal can one have the possibility of roaming the void and seeking various opportunities."
"Perhaps he is not an immortal after all. The tribulation cloud seems to be much weaker than the ascension thunder tribulation I have seen before."
At this time, most of the people in Ta Yun City were looking in the direction of Minghu Ya Ju in astonishment. Cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage and below looked towards Minghu Ya Ju with envy on their faces. However, some experienced cultivators, Mahayana and Transcending Tribulation cultivators, frowned and didn't quite believe that this tribulation cloud would be a celestial ascension tribulation. This scale was inferior to that of ascending to the Mahayana stage, let alone a direct ascension.
It was simply the astonishing immortal essence contained within that was unlike any ordinary ascended immortal. This also puzzled some powerful beings in Taoyun City who had already achieved ascension, for although the tribulation thunder was far inferior to what they had experienced when ascending to immortality, even less intense than during their breakthrough to the Great Accomplishment stage, the concentration of immortal spiritual power it contained was so profound that it left them speechless with awe.
At this time, people kept gathering towards Minghu Yaju. The first to arrive was the old man with the black cane. The old man with the black cane had some dealings with Hu Xiaofeng. As soon as he sensed this anomaly, he knew it was Minghu Yaju. Since there was something unusual happening at Minghu Yaju, whether out of inner thoughts or interests, he naturally had to come in person.
As he arrived at the entrance of this Minghu Ya Residence, the old man with the black staff was indeed curious to step inside and take a look. However, he wasn't sure what was going on inside. Even though he had some connections with Hu Xiaofeng, he knew that the fellow called Dongfang who was currently staying here was someone he couldn't just barge into. Having seen the other party's terrifying power, the old man with the black staff knew that his own strength among immortals wasn't weak, but compared to this Dongfang fellow, he wasn't much different from other big cultivators or tribulation-crossing monks. With a single hand movement, there was no room for him to turn things around.
“Fellow Daoist Black Staff, what is this” At this time, among the many cultivators who rushed to Minghu Ya Residence nearby, there were quite a few who knew the old man with the black staff. One of them was a bald middle-aged man with a white crane pattern on his chest. He looked puzzled and walked forward to greet the old man with the black staff.
“I’m not quite sure.” The old man with the black staff shook his head.
"Hei Zhuang Dao You isn't close with Hu Mei Ren, and haven't you two collaborated quite a bit" At this moment, a man clad in shining silver armor brushed the long hair from his forehead and said with a flamboyant air.
“Although I have a good relationship with Daoist Hu, even the best of relationships doesn’t mean I know everything about him.” The old man with the black staff shook his head.
"If you're not sure, why don't you go in and see for yourself" The silver-armored man smiled wryly and took a step forward.
“This is rather inconvenient, isn't it” The old man with the black staff flickered and stood directly in front of the silver-armored man.
“Blackstaff, you're known as a sly old fox, never taking on trouble yourself. While you have collaborated with Madam Hu a few times in the past, your friendship couldn't be this close, right Or are you saying Blackstaff, you're old but not tired of chasing after women like Madam Hu” The silver-armored man narrowed his eyes. Towering Cloud City wasn't small, but the number of immortals was neither few nor many. Their circle was quite limited. Although they didn't interact often, most cultivators with similar powers had some grudges against each other deep down.”
“Haha, Yin Jia, you're overthinking things. Black Cane is old now, his lifespan must be dwindling. There's no way he would suddenly spring back to life like a dead tree finding new growth. However, someone saw Daoist Hu bring a young boy into Minghu Residence. That boy stayed there for some time and hasn't been seen since.”
At this time, a black-faced immortal in the crowd fanned the flames and laughed, “It seems that Yin Jia, you haven't even reached your prime yet, but your head is already covered with lush leaves.”
Upon hearing this black immortal's words, other well-wishers also chimed in and burst into laughter.
Upon hearing this, the man in silver armor's face instantly darkened like water. He didn't hide his feelings for Hu Xiaofeng at all, snarling, "What kind of nobody is he Just wait until I beat him to a pulp!"
Once he finished speaking, the silver-armored man calmly walked toward Minghu Ya居. The restrictions on Minghu Ya居 could stop low-level cultivators and have a certain deterrent effect on ordinary immortals, but the effect would not be very noticeable in the end.
“Silver Armor, listen to this old man’s advice, it’s best not to get involved in this matter.” The elder with the black staff reached out to stop him again.

“Black Staff, you really want to obstruct me Others fear you three points, but if you anger me, I won't give you any face. Don't be shameless.”
The silver-armored man's face contorted with rage as he said, "Originally, I came back to find trouble with Lin Li. If it weren't for your recommendation, Hu Mei would never have met Lin Li. Now you've gone and stirred up another pretty boy, and I bet you're behind this too! Fine, this time I'll settle both old and new scores with you!"tire body was covered by a faint layer of firelight, and even drops of lake water could not touch him. Since he summoned these fire wings, Zhou Tong's speed increased dramatically once again.Let me kn...
