Cultivation of Immortality: This is what unorthodox methods are like.

Refining drowning liquid consumes a huge amount of time and money.

Those who can perform the act of drowning either have powerful backing or are extremely wealthy.

Wang Quan, who didn't drown, was just a roadside creature.

They naturally looked down on it.

The favors of this kind of person are worthless.

Wang Quan naturally knew what these people were thinking, so he smiled and said, "Everyone, I haven't practiced [Drowning] because I didn't know how powerful it was before."

"Now that we know, we naturally have to get rid of the drowning."

"My two senior brothers, you may not know who I am, but I want to tell you that at least one-third of the credit for the Second Layer World's current state belongs to me."

Upon hearing this, the two old Taoist priests were bewildered: "What about the second level of the world? We haven't been there in a long time."

Royal power.....

Ying Jiaren suddenly spoke up:

"You used to only have one or two safe zones when entering the second layer of the world, right?"

The two old Taoist priests nodded.

Ying Jiaren continued, "The second layer of the world now reflects a large number of buildings from the real world!"

"Every type of architecture possesses its own unique mystery!"

"The current drowning safety zone in the lower house is several times, even dozens of times, larger than before."

"Go inside and take a look, and you'll understand!"

The two old Taoist priests exchanged a glance, and one of them took a step and vanished instantly.

This means we've entered the second layer of the world.

One breath...

Ten breaths...

One hundred breaths...

Wang Quan frowned: "Why haven't they come back after going in for so long?"

Another old Taoist priest laughed: "Back then, due to some events, we set the point on this mountain where we entered the second layer of the world."

"It will take him some time to get to the lower house!"

Wang Quan suddenly realized.

After a short while, the space distorted slightly, and the old Taoist priest appeared.

He had just returned when he saw Wang Quan's eyes light up: "Fellow Daoist, we need your favor!"

Another old Taoist priest had a sudden thought: "Could it be that the lower courtyard of the second world has truly undergone a tremendous change?"

"Were all those changes caused by him?"

The first old Taoist priest nodded: "Not bad!"

"I went inside and checked. Now, almost half of the lower house is a safe zone!"

"I described this fellow cultivator's appearance and went in to ask; all the cultivators knew him!"

"Everyone says that without him, there wouldn't be the current House of Representatives!"

"Moreover, it is because of him that the monks of today have discovered the method of using sunlight to cleanse evil."

"Currently, some monks have also established safe zones in the market area."

"What they've accomplished in just one year surpasses what the entire House of Commons has achieved since its founding!"

Upon hearing this, another old Taoist priest stepped forward, eager to enter the second layer of the world.

After a short while, he returned, beaming with excitement: "Fellow Daoist, we can exchange this drowning water for yours!"

"We're definitely going to take your favor!"

However, Wang Quan hesitated slightly at this moment: "Gentlemen, although I have promised to do you a favor, it is not a great one."

"To be honest, what would take you fifty years of hard work to create [Drowning], I could probably accomplish in a year or two; and with far less money!"

The two old Taoist priests nodded: "We naturally understand!"

"When the time comes, we or our descendants will certainly not make things difficult for you!"

Wang Quan nodded.

Thus, the two sides exchanged tokens of affection.

Wang Quan asked curiously, "Have there been any other cases of drowning?"

"We can all trade!"

The two old Taoist priests shook their heads: "The cultivators who cultivated the [Drowning] technique in the past either died or gave it to their families."

"Either leave here and go traveling."

"There were also some experts who went to headquarters and never came back."

Wang Quan was not disappointed.

Since we can't trade for more [Drowning], we'll just refine them ourselves; it'll just take a little more time.

Compared to the amplified magical power, the time lost is negligible.

After exchanging pleasantries, Wang Quan and Ying Jiaren got up to leave.

The two elderly Taoist priests were quite reluctant to leave: "We haven't had anyone come here for a long time; it's quite lonely."

"Could you two fellow Daoists stay and join us for a banquet tonight?"

Wang Quan shook his head: "Senior brothers, we still need to cultivate!"

The two old Taoist priests were astonished: "You have such a great reputation and such great strength in the lower courtyard, why do you still need to cultivate so diligently all night?"

"Unwilling to enjoy relaxing?"

Wang Quan laughed: "How can one improve without diligent practice?"

Seeing this, the two old Taoist priests did not try to stop them and let them leave.

As night fell and moonlight streamed down, Wang Quan and Ying Jiaren rode away on the clouds.

Two old Taoist priests sat upright on the Wailing Mountain, knocking on the incense burner, gathering moonlight to turn into fine wine, and drinking and singing.

They don't sing about happiness or hope; they only sing about the youthful exuberance of their younger days.

As they sang, the two old Taoist priests were moved to tears.

After an unknown amount of time, the two old Taoists drank the fine wine, then took a step and entered the second layer of the world.

On Wailing Mountain, corresponding to the second layer of the world, they repeatedly slay evil, hoping to create a safe zone.

Many masters fought alongside them here back then.

But now, only the two of them remain.

"We had absolutely no hope before!"

"Now that we have the means to use sunlight to cleanse evil, we have hope of establishing a safe zone on Wailing Mountain!"

For the two old Taoist priests, establishing a safe zone in Wailing Mountain was their only obsession and their only thought.

They originally thought they would never achieve it in their lifetime.

Unexpectedly, just by encountering Wang Quan and taking a trip to the second layer of the world, I saw hope.

How could they not be happy?

-----------------

On Linjiang Mountain:

Wang Quan and Ying Jiaren sat atop the millstone spirit.

Flower fairies brewed fine wine and served it in flower cups.

Firefly spirits danced gracefully nearby, sometimes forming a human shape, sometimes an eight, which was quite interesting.

The crickets are blowing their little trumpets, and the butterfly fairies are playing their pipa.

The ant spirits, shirtless and sleeves rolled up, performed acrobatic feats such as lifting heavy cauldrons.

"My lady, why waste your kindness by exchanging [drowning] with them?"

Ying Jiaren smiled: "Their fundamental method is flawed. Although they can refine [Drowning], they don't understand its mysteries."

"The perfect version of the fundamental law can use special spells to cut [drowning], then one begets two, two begets four."

"We use these methods to create [drowning] in exchange for other [drowning], and it's worth it even if it means sacrificing some human kindness."

Wang Quan suddenly realized: "Then, how long will it take for one to become two?"

Ying Jiaren calculated with her fingers: "If I use some rituals to bless it, it will be able to generate two in a month at most; after two months, it will be two generating four."

"Once the deal is complete, then we'll cut off those two types of [drowning]."

"Three months later, we'll each have three types of [drowning]."

Wang Quan nodded: "This way, we can save a lot of time and money!"

Ying Jiaren nodded: "We don't lack money, but we lack time!"

"If we can save some time now, we can accelerate the Foundation Establishment process more."
