A Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Starting as a Rogue Cultivator

However, once Mo Juren took his position, things were different; he was able to directly lock onto both ends of the line segment.

Sure enough, there are more than ten roads between the two points, two of which are newly discovered. They are the shortest roads, and the roads where you can vaguely see Chishui Peak in the distance. This gave Wang Li the answer.

"Hey you, pick up that dark, hard lump you dug out and take a closer look."

Wang Li spoke to one of the Wild Wolf Gang bandits in front of him.

This guy and another bandit were brought along by him just in case.

It's impossible for him to touch the small bottle directly; who knows if there are any rules or restrictions on it.

If he were to die instantly from being touched, wouldn't he be wronged and suffer a huge loss?

Therefore, they found the number one bandit and had the bandit leader lie down on the mine first to see if there was anything wrong with the bottle.

That's safer.

If there's a problem, have another one try it.

If both bandits die, then the bottle is not to be taken; if neither of them is hurt, then the bottle is for a virtuous person to possess.

"Yes, Immortal Master."

Having witnessed Wang Li's methods, the little bandit became extremely obedient.

All they want now is to survive.

Little did they know they were bravely and diligently advancing into the abyss.

When nothing unexpected happened after the petty thief got the bottle, Wang Li already had a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on.

"Walk."

They lifted the two men up, one on each side, and fled quickly into the distance.

After we have left the Seven Mysteries Sect.

"Let your friend play with that thing you're holding."

"Yes."

This is another layer of insurance.

As expected, nothing unexpected happened.

"You're doing well. Don't worry, your wives, children, and elderly parents will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your lives."

"Immortal Master, what do you mean? I have no children and no wife!"

A huge fireball came flying straight at you.

He felt no psychological pressure at all about killing the two bandits.

"Immortal Master, spare my life!"

"No... Ah...!"

The bottle fell to the ground again.

Seeing this, Wang Li took a deep breath.

"Master Han, if this small bottle is essential for your enlightenment and no one is allowed to touch it, then please take it away now and erase my memories of my past life, so that I may return to a peaceful life."

Or, I humbly request the Heavenly Venerable to grant this junior better aptitude for cultivation! A drop of kindness received will forever be remembered!

Now that things have come to this point, surely Han Tianzun isn't that petty?

He picked up the lump from the ground.

To be honest, Wang Li didn't want to take any risks. You could say this was the biggest gamble of his life!

Either live an ordinary life honestly and eke out a living;

Either they fight for immortality, transcending the long river of time and destiny.

To cultivate immortality, without exceptional talent or a powerful backer, he must seize the bottle. Without the bottle, without any unexpected system cheats, and with only three spiritual roots… let alone ascension, even Foundation Establishment requires all sorts of scheming and intrigue; to form the Core, he must calculate everything!

Cultivating immortality in the mortal world is too difficult.

He was well aware of how common his three spiritual roots were.

That's Old Man Wu!

In the mountains and forests, the wind rustles through the leaves.

As a result, after a few breaths, the surrounding wind still did not carry any murderous intent.

Not a single pebble suddenly appeared.

There was no dimensional reduction attack that transcended time and space.

"Hey, hehehe, hehehehe... Thank you God for the bottle, thank you God for your mercy."

He obtained the Heavenly Bottle!

At least for now, the Aquarius was firmly in his hand.

It's about the size of a fist, with a long, thin neck, and very heavy. After removing the mud from the bottle, it's a vibrant green, and the surface has exquisite dark green leaf-like patterns. The top is sealed by a cap that can't be opened no matter how hard you try.

Chapter 3 The Wild Wolf Gang, Jia Tianlong

Having obtained the small bottle, Wang Li didn't want to delay any longer.

According to what he learned from the rogue cultivator Old Man Wu, the Ascension Ceremony in Yue Kingdom, which is held every ten years, only has a little over a year left after deducting the half-year wasted by the Seven Mysteries Sect.

He must seize this opportunity.

If he had entered Yellow Maple Valley ten years earlier, he would likely have been able to establish his foundation and even form his core ten years earlier. This would have given him more time to prepare and greater self-defense capabilities when the demonic forces invaded Yue Kingdom.

Over the next year, he made the following plan:

First, improve your self-cultivation as much as possible, as this is the foundation for a peaceful and secure life.

Secondly, he must visit Master Jin Guang once to obtain the Ascension Token no matter what. This way, he can have a smooth journey ahead, and even if his cultivation level is insufficient in the end, he can still get in through the back door.

In addition, arrangements need to be made for his biological father and stepmother. While severing worldly ties would certainly be more beneficial for his path to immortality, making some arrangements in advance is also a son's duty. Besides, his biological father has satisfied his every need over the years, his fatherly love is truly as solid as a mountain; after his mother passed away, his stepmother treated him just as well, without so many melodramatic plot twists.

Therefore, I would like to do my best to ensure that my two elders, who have no spiritual roots, live a long and peaceful life and leave something for their descendants.

Once you've roughly outlined your thought process, it becomes clear what to do next.

What Wang Li didn't notice was that at the spot where he took the small bottle, an identical phantom of a small bottle appeared and slowly solidified!

(To be precise, it was the spot where the Wild Wolves helped the bandits dig up the small bottle.)

……

Now that I have the small bottle, how can I improve my cultivation level as quickly as possible?

There is no doubt that it was achieved with the help of elixirs and pills.

So where can one obtain elixirs that can strengthen the body's foundation and promote the advancement of cultivation techniques?

Doctor Mo had four kinds of pill formulas in his hands: "Yellow Dragon Pill", "Clear Spirit Powder", "Nourishing Essence Pill" and "Golden Marrow Pill".

Huanglongdan and Jinsuiwan can strengthen the body's foundation and improve cultivation; Qinglingsan is a good medicine for detoxification; and Yangjingdan has a miraculous effect on internal and external injuries.

Although these pills are just ordinary medicines, they still have miraculous effects on low-level cultivators. In particular, the Yellow Dragon Pill and the Golden Marrow Pill were used by Han Laomo, who had four spiritual roots, to break through from the sixth level of Qi Refining to the eighth level in just two years.

Moreover, Doctor Mo himself relied on these four elixirs to reach the pinnacle of the secular world.

"With my current combined strength at the peak of the sixth level of Qi Refining and several techniques at my disposal, how confident am I in dealing with Doctor Mo?"

Every cultivator undergoes a significant transformation as they progress from the third to the fourth level of Qi Refining.

From a sensory perspective alone, the fourth level of Qi Refining is more than three times more sensitive than the third level, and the primordial spirit is also twice as strong.

In addition, Mo Juren himself had problems.

Therefore, even if Wang lacks magical artifacts, powerful spells, and talismans—essential items for cultivators—he can still easily gain the upper hand; it all depends on the price he has to pay.

Of course, avoiding conflict is the best option; he doesn't want to kill Han Laomo's initial mentor right now.

So, while this person was out purchasing herbs and looking for a way to solve his own problems, someone made full preparations, wearing a mask, face shield, double gloves, etc., and entered the valley hut to start rummaging through the boxes and cabinets. In the end, he actually found the formulas for Huanglong Dan, Qingling San, Yangjing Dan, and Jinsui Wan.

"They didn't leave any backup plan?"

Didn't the original novel also contain some kind of poison?

Leave it alone.

It's best not to have these little gadgets.

In addition, with the four pill formulas no less powerful than the Yellow Dragon Pill—"Nine-Flower Jade Dew Pill," "Qi Gathering Powder," "Blood Tempering Pill," and "Pulse Expanding Pill"—that he had collected at great expense in his earlier years, Wang Li now possessed six kinds of pills that could promote cultivation growth.

After that, without saying a word, he took several well-annotated pharmacology books from a box, as well as some cultivation techniques that Mo Juren, who had no spiritual roots, insisted on collecting, and then left without looking back.

This part of the cultivation method is definitely an unexpected surprise.

As for the common medicinal herbs such as ginseng and he shou wu in the medicinal field, they didn't even glance at them. Anyway, there are plenty of them in the outside world, and they can be purchased in large quantities with gold and other worldly money.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Under the bright starlight, at the Wild Wolf Gang's headquarters, a figure silently slipped into Gang Leader Jia's room under the cover of night.

After finding their target, they first used hypnosis to make the rough man on the bed sleep even more soundly with a woman. Then, they rolled up the man's back, wrapped him in a rope, and carried him away from the bandits' hideout.

Deliberately avoiding this interrogation...

Well, having a heart-to-heart talk with the bandit leader in a bandit's den is a plot point used by TV dramas to save on budget!

Leaving aside the man who couldn't think straight and yelled, let's just talk about the woman next to him who couldn't think straight and screamed in the middle of the night...

Gee!

Although he could easily overwhelm these bandits, it would still be troublesome.

If you can avoid it as much as possible, there's no need to deliberately invite trouble.

"Clap clap clap."

Two slaps were delivered first, and the rough man surnamed Jia immediately woke up, feeling dizzy.

"Ouch...that hurts! Who the hell dares to hit me? They're asking for trouble!"

Seeing that this guy was still a bit confused:
