Immortal Rebellion: Investing in Cause and Effect, Unexpectedly Hijacking Li Muwan's Deal

Emerging from the spatial passage, Lu Xuan and his group arrived at a platform inscribed with an ancient teleportation array.

The moment I entered,

A strange aura, a mixture of coldness, decay, and pure spiritual energy, entered my nostrils.

Lu Xuan looked up and glanced around.

But the sun, moon, and stars cannot be seen.

Only shattered star rocks, floating giant bones, and solidified energy blocks remain.

The abundance here is exceptionally high and violent, with a concentration far exceeding that of the native planet of Zhuque.

However, spiritual energy is mixed with evil energy. If one cultivates it directly without filtering it, it is easy to breed inner demons and lead to qi deviation.

Following Lu Xuan, five beams of white light lit up in succession in the spatial passage.

Li Muwan, Li Qiqing, Zhou Yun, and Liu Yiyi appeared one after another.

Upon entering, they quickly activated their protective aura and cautiously scanned their surroundings.

"Is this the extraterritorial battlefield? The spiritual energy is quite dense, but this aura is a bit off." Li Qiqing frowned and waved his hand.

Li Muwan didn't speak, but closed her eyes and slowly spread her divine sense, carefully exploring the surrounding environment.

A moment later, she opened her eyes and looked at everyone, saying, "Within ten miles around, there are only a few low-level wandering souls, all of whom are in the early stages of Foundation Establishment and pose no great threat."

Although the spiritual energy here is abundant, it is mixed with evil energy; it's best to filter it with spiritual power before cultivating.

Although Zhou Yun's injuries had mostly healed, he had not yet returned to his peak condition.

He glanced coldly at Lu Xuan and then said, "The first level of the outer battlefield is the outer area, where the wandering souls are not very strong."

The real danger lies in the middle and deep layers.

Our visit here,

One purpose was to gain experience, and the other was to seek opportunities.

Gathering them together like this is extremely inefficient.

Upon hearing this, Li Qiqing turned to Zhou Yun and asked, "You mean, we should explore separately?"

Liu Yiyi stood behind Zhou Yun and said, "Senior Brother Zhou is right, gathering together is too inefficient."

By searching separately, you can find more opportunities that suit you.

Moreover, we are also afraid of being betrayed by someone again.

Liu Yiyi's words were quite pointed.

But Lu Xuan didn't take it to heart.

Upon hearing this, Li Muwan wanted to say something in defense of Lu Xuan, but Lu Xuan stopped her with a look.

Li Qiqing had a headache.

When they came out, the sect leader repeatedly instructed them to lead their team well and not to cause any conflicts.

Now, things are really messed up; the exploration hasn't even started yet, and the team is already starting to split up.

Li Qiqing looked at Lu Xuan and asked, "Junior Brother Lu, what are your thoughts?"

"I want to act alone," Lu Xuan replied calmly, revealing no extra emotion.

He now needs to find a quiet, secluded place to refine the Infant-Establishing Pill, and at the same time cultivate the spells he obtained from the Scripture Pavilion, such as the "Heart Fire Forging Divine Technique" and the "Flame Dragon True Explanation - Fragment".

These things are best done without anyone around to disturb you.

Moreover, his strength far surpasses that of the other four, and even if he encounters danger, he can handle it calmly without needing anyone's support.

Li Qiqing frowned and advised, "Junior Brother Lu, it's too dangerous to act alone. Why don't you join our group?"

With my sister, you, and me, we're stronger and safer.

Although he knew that Lu Xuan was quite strong, the situation on the extraterrestrial battlefield was complex and unexpected events were inevitable. Acting alone was ultimately too risky.

Li Muwan also looked at Lu Xuan, her eyes filled with worry, and said, "Junior Brother Lu, the outer battlefield is not like the sect. Wandering souls are extremely troublesome, and you may also encounter disciples from other sects. You're all alone..."

"Don't worry about me, just take care of yourselves."

Lu Xuan interrupted Li Muwan, and at the same time took out two jade slips from his storage bag and handed them to Li Qiqing and Li Muwan.

"If there is any danger, crush the jade slip, and I will come to your aid."

As for Zhou Yun and Liu Yiyi... good luck to them.

"Tch... What are you pretending for?" Liu Yiyi rolled her eyes at Lu Xuan and turned away, no longer looking in their direction.

Zhou Yun stared at Li Muwan for a moment with complicated emotions, thinking to himself that they were destined to be apart in this life.

Zhou Yun gritted his teeth and said to Liu Yiyi, "Let's go!"

The two of them then took off into the sky.

Lu Xuan didn't want to pay attention to the two of them, but Li Qiqing, as the team leader, couldn't ignore them.

He quickly sent a telepathic message to Zhou Yun and Liu Yiyi, saying, "Use the telepathic message talisman if there is any danger, and I will come to your aid as soon as possible."

Neither of them responded, so Li Qiqing could only shake his head helplessly and say:

"Junior Brother Zhou and the others went to the east, so my little sister and I will head to the north."

We should check in with each other every ten days to confirm each other's safety.

Lu Xuan nodded slightly.

Then Li Qiqing and Li Muwan headed north together.

After everyone left, Lu Xuan slowly straightened up.

He scanned his surroundings with his divine sense again, and after confirming that there was nothing unusual, he sped off to the west.

Lu Xuan moved with incredible speed, weaving between the islands and the rubble.

The few low-level wandering spirits he encountered along the way were terrified and fled in all directions before they could even get close, due to the faint pressure emanating from him.

These low-level wandering souls are mostly the remnant souls of cultivators who died in battle. They lack independent consciousness and only instinctively attack living beings; their strength is weak.

For Lu Xuan, it posed no threat whatsoever.

After speeding for about an hour, Lu Xuan stopped beside a floating giant star rock remnant.

This piece of star rock remnant is approximately ten zhang square.

A broken giant bone is stuck diagonally at the top of the star rock, blending into the surrounding floating pebbles and solidified energy blocks.

On the side of Star Rock, there is a naturally formed cave, the entrance of which is covered by a layer of translucent energy crystals and fragments of giant bones.

It would be difficult to discover this hidden place without carefully using one's divine sense to explore it.

Lu Xuan hovered beside the Star Rock, his divine sense scanning the Star Rock and the cave once again.

After confirming that there was nothing unusual here, he landed on the Star Rock ruins.

Lu Xuan flicked his finger, and the spiritual energy at his fingertips transformed into several tiny flames that shot out, instantly shattering the energy crystals and giant bone fragments that were blocking the cave entrance.

He then set up concealment arrays and restrictions both inside and outside the cave before entering it.

The interior space of the cave is not large, but it is still enough to perform tasks.

He sat down cross-legged and took out the medicinal materials for refining the Infant-Establishing Pill from his storage bag, placing them one by one in front of him.

Finally, Lu Xuan summoned the Azure Flame Furnace.

A stream of spiritual energy was injected, and the furnace body flashed with a blue light. A gentle blue flame rose from the bottom of the furnace, beginning to preheat it.

Preheating the alchemy furnace is the first step in alchemy, and also one of the most crucial steps.

If the alchemy furnace is not preheated sufficiently, the medicinal properties of the herbs cannot be fully realized.

It might even be affected by the interference of the violent spiritual energy from beyond the realm.

This caused the medicinal materials to char, resulting in complete failure.

While the alchemy furnace was warming up, Lu Xuan took out the jade slip containing the "Heart Fire Forging Technique" and carefully read it through again.

The "Heart Fire Forging Divine Technique" is a secret auxiliary technique that uses fire to refine the spirit.

It basically involves visualizing and guiding the "heart fire" within the body to temper the soul, enhance the soul's strength, and increase its resistance to inner demons.

Lu Xuan was already at the half-step Nascent Soul stage, so cultivating the "Heart Fire Forging God Technique" wasn't too difficult for him.

He closed his eyes and began to visualize the "heart fire" within his body, following the secret technique recorded on the jade slip.

As the spiritual energy within his body began to circulate slowly.

After a while

A faint crimson flame appeared deep within his dantian; that was his "heart fire."

The flame was extremely pure, containing not a trace of impurity.

Under Lu Xuan's careful guidance, the Heart Fire began to slowly circulate through the meridians.

Along the way, it refined a lot of spiritual energy and impurities in the meridians, which eventually gathered in the sea of ​​consciousness.

Simply by guiding the inner fire from his dantian to his brow, Lu Xuan's forehead was covered in a fine layer of sweat.

A flame burns through the body's meridians, and the pain is unimaginable.
