Junior sister, I really need to control you.

"Why would Young Master Li have the idea of ​​joining that gang of bald monks?!" Shen Xin exclaimed in surprise.

"Oh, Fairy Shen has arrived," Li Yinsheng put away the Yaksha Pill, shook his head and said, "I have no intention of joining Buddhism, I am just somewhat interested in the Buddhist cultivation methods."

Taihao Immortal Sect belongs to the Taoist sect and has a deep connection with the orthodox Shangqing Realm of Taoism.

Moreover, although the relationship between Buddhism and Taoism cannot be described as irreconcilable, there has indeed been constant open and covert struggle between them.

If he were to convert to Buddhism, it would be tantamount to becoming a traitor to Taoism, so naturally he would not have the slightest thought of switching sides.

However, the fact that Buddhism has been able to stand alongside Taoism to this day suggests that its methods of cultivation must have some merit.

If it weren't for the Yaksha Pill, he wouldn't have considered this matter.

However, if it can help a Yaksha advance to the Vajra level, then spending some effort to supplement his Buddhist cultivation techniques is definitely worthwhile.

According to his understanding, even the weakest Vajra Guardian Deity could easily defeat an ordinary Earth Immortal.

The legendary Vajra beings are said to be extremely powerful, even unafraid of celestial beings.

"Why would Young Master Li be interested in Buddhist practices?" Shen Xin was still puzzled.

Li Yinsheng didn't hide anything and briefly explained the matter of the Yaksha Pill to Shen Xin. "I see. So, Young Master Li is struggling with whether to infuse the pill with a precious medicine rich in Buddhist nature, or to cultivate some Buddhist nature himself and use the Thunder Tempering Pill Technique to enrich the Yaksha Pill?"

Li Yinsheng nodded: "Although there are many Buddhist treasures, those that can be incorporated into elixirs and replenish the Buddhist nature of Yaksha elixirs are extremely rare."

"And if one cultivates on their own..."

Shen Xin shook her head: "This road is probably blocked."

"In my humble opinion, although Young Master Li's Thunder Tempering Pill Technique has the ability to control pills, it is not his specialty, is that right?"

Li Yinsheng nodded: "Naturally, the essence of the Thunder Tempering Pill Technique is to improve the quality of pills."

"Therefore, I estimate that even if Young Master Li himself possesses profound Buddhist nature, the amount he can share with Yaksha Pill through the Thunder Tempering Pill Technique is very limited."

"It's like a stream connecting a vast ocean and a lake. Even if the ocean has boundless water, how much of it can flow into the lake?" Shen Xin said.

"What Fairy Shen said makes sense." Li Yinsheng nodded in agreement.

He was aware of this problem, but there wasn't a good solution at the moment.

Moreover, it's not just a matter of distributing Buddhist essence. Even if it could be solved by adding Buddhist ingredients, one would still need a good alchemy technique to fully unleash the Yaksha's combat advantage.

Back at the Yunmeng Chamber of Commerce branch, he had already searched for a method similar to the Thunder Tempering Pill Technique, but to no avail. Although there were some similar methods for tempering pills, those specifically designed to manipulate pills in combat were still too niche.

Which alchemist would casually throw their pills into battle?!

Later, although he had a small world to help him deduce things, it was a single-threaded system, so he naturally had to prioritize the Samadhi Fire.

"I do have some clues about this matter," Shen Xin said with a smile.

"Oh?" Li Yinsheng's eyes lit up. "Fairy Shen, would you be willing to come to my cave for tea?"

……

Li Yinsheng lived in the cave.

Shen Xin put down her teacup and said, "Young master, have you ever heard of the Penglai Immortal Gathering in the East Sea?"

"Of course I know. It is said that there was once an extremely powerful force on Penglai Island, which included eight Celestial Immortals and Golden Immortals. It was once very powerful in the East Sea."

"But nothing in this world lasts forever. Over the long years, the eight celestial immortals and golden immortals disappeared one after another, and the original power on this island also gradually declined and disappeared."

Li Yinsheng said, "Now that Penglai Immortal Island has been reshuffled, it has become a place where many powerful Earth Immortals come and go to discuss the Dao and exchange goods."

"The Penglai Immortal Society, which developed from it, is also the largest merchant guild in the entire East China Sea." "That's right," Shen Xin nodded, "and the most important reason why the Penglai Immortal Society has been able to stand firm is that it has only one Celestial Immortal Ancestor, who is also a great master of alchemy. Therefore, the entire Penglai Immortal Society has many alchemy masters from top to bottom."

"A patriarch of alchemy at the Celestial Immortal realm..." Li Yinsheng twitched the corner of his mouth.

With such an ancestor as a pillar supporting the sky, it would be very difficult to fall down.

"That patriarch has not shown his face for a long time, but one of his disciples happens to be a good friend of mine."

Shen Xin explained, "One of her biggest hobbies in life is collecting and practicing those strange and unusual alchemical formulas, and every time we meet, she always talks to me about her collection."

At this point, a hint of helplessness flashed across Shen Xin's brows.

"In short, I remember that when we last met, she mentioned several ancient alchemy techniques. She was skilled at manipulating pills in combat, and a school of alchemists even emerged because of this."

"However, compared to their own combat strength, the most important thing for an alchemist is the ability to refine pills and win over powerful figures from all sides."

"Therefore, this kind of technique did not enjoy its glory for long before it declined and became merely a pastime for leisure."

"However, my friend seems to be very interested in this, and even said that she wants to promote this technique at the Penglai Immortal Gathering."

Li Yinsheng twitched the corner of his mouth.

He didn't quite agree with Shen Xin's statement that a pill refiner's combat strength wasn't important. Having formidable combat strength was never a bad thing; it was just that it was too difficult for ordinary cultivators to balance their combat prowess with pill refining, forcing them to choose one over the other.

But her friend, who wanted to promote the art of alchemy, did seem a bit unorthodox.

However, if one wants to obtain a better technique for alchemy, a visit is necessary.

While we're at it, let's also see if there are any suitable Buddhist alchemical ingredients or cultivation methods at the Penglai Immortal Gathering.

If I could also buy the Three Lights Divine Water, that would be even better.

……

After deciding on this matter, Li Yinsheng did not set off immediately.

Instead, he waited two more years until Polaris Island had collected all the materials needed to refine the pill and created a "Yuan Chen Pill" for Tantai Jing that could help her break through to the Earth Immortal realm. Only then did he set off with his junior sister and Sang Ruo.

Tantai Jing originally wanted to go with Li Yinsheng, but the Yuan Chen Dan was unstable and needed to be taken immediately, so she had no choice but to focus on breaking through first.

But before going into seclusion, she specifically stated that once she broke through to the Earth Immortal realm, she would immediately go to the Penglai Immortal Gathering to find Li Yinsheng.

Li Yinsheng didn't think it was necessary, since he was only going to Penglai Immortal Gathering to buy things and might not stay for long.

After bidding farewell to Tantai Jing, Li Yinsheng took a jade letter written by Shen Xin and headed to the Penglai Immortal Gathering.

At this moment, the Thundercloud Boat, which could not tear through space or traverse the void, was far less efficient for him than traveling on his own.

However, he wasn't in a hurry, so he leisurely sailed the Thundercloud Boat towards Penglai Immortal Island.

Meanwhile, Mu Xiaoyu, who was about to arrive at a new place, was unusually less excited than usual and showed little interest.

After all, even if the Penglai Immortal Realm has some new delicacies that she hasn't tried before, she can't eat them now.

Perhaps because she lacked the joy that food brought her, Mu Xiaoyu gradually found another interest during this period.

That was to cultivate the Void God Technique through spiritual communion with Li Yinsheng.

Although she had previously communicated with her senior brother spiritually, it was not a frequent occurrence, and each time it did not last long.

However, after she could no longer eat, in her spare time outside of practicing weapon crafting, Mu Xiaoyu would often seek out Li Yinsheng to cultivate the Void God Technique and enhance her soul and divine sense.

Even now, Li Yinsheng even suspects that the strength of her soul and consciousness is comparable to that of an immortal in the first or second realm.
