Chapter 129 - Immortal Sense Poisonous Pill: Burning Heart (2/2)
Elder Wan Linyun smiled “coldly” and said warmly, “That’s right. Changshou, do you know what immortal senses and spiritual senses are?”
Li Changshou replied, “I have read about them in the sutras in my sect. Spiritual senses and immortal senses are the thoughts that emanate from the essence soul, and the essence soul’s perception of the world. According to the ‘Good Immortal Sutra’, the Essence Soul is the heart. Spiritual senses and immortal senses are the senses of the heart. Mortals rely on their eyes, ears, nose, and tongue. The human heart is presumptuous. They are ignorant of the Great Dao. Qi Refinement cultivators view the world with their hearts, so they call it spiritual senses.”
Elder Wan Linyun’s smile turned colder as his eyes glistened with admiration even though he could easily obtain similar answers from other disciples in the sect.
Elder Wan Linyun said, “Ever since I saw your Sensing Stone last time, I’ve been searching through ancient books and reading the books in the Dao Repository in the sect. I’ve also been pondering about it with a few elders who are good at refining pills. The colorful flower juice would change color when it encounters spiritual senses and immortal senses. The tree sap of the Jade spiritual wood would be divided into nets if it encountered any spiritual senses and immortal senses. Other than that, there are also seven to eight types of spiritual senses and immortal senses that could react to. I tried them one by one and finalized the pill formula.”
As he spoke, Elder Wan Linyun handed a piece of paper to Li Changshou and sneered. “Take a look. What do you think?”
Although Li Changshou was used to Elder Wan Linyun’s signature smile, he would occasionally be frightened. Li Changshou grabbed the pill formula and looked at it carefully. He pondered carefully in his heart. Sometimes, he would frown, sometimes he would look enlightened. In the end, he nodded slightly.
Li Changshou said, “This pill formula should be feasible. I feel so enlightened, be it regarding the medicinal properties or theories.”
“Next, I’ll figure out the quant.i.ty and refinement method,” said Elder Wan Linyun. “I’ll go to the North Continent soon to search for the Blue Crystal Divine Spiked Worms. If I can catch a few more, this pill will be completed in three years.”
“Elder, are you going to the North Continent personally?”
“Yes. I’ve asked the juniors of Pill Tripod Peak to search everywhere. We can’t find the Blue Crystal Divine Spiked Worms in the East Continent.”
Elder Wan Linyun leaned his weight on the bronze walking stick and stared at the thick, green trees. “Poisonous pills of immortal senses are rare in the world. If I can refine it, it would really be gratifying.”
He continued, “Changshou, I have lived for more than half my lifespan as a Heaven Immortal. However, the opportunity to live forever has not appeared yet. I reckon I won’t be able to obtain the Dao Fruit of Longevity. If I can leave behind a few more copies of the Poison Sutra in my lifetime and produce a few more new formulas, this trip would be worth
it.”
Li Changshou felt a little emotional when he heard that. However, he did not say anything and just listened with a smile. “By the way, Changshou, your Ambition Pill…”
“Ahem!”
Li Changshou did not expect the topic to change so quickly.
“Elder, do you want to use one? After the internal sect compet.i.tion in the sect, I refined many of those pills. However, Uncle-Master Jiu Wu took all of them. I have just brewed a new batch of Love Water recently. If you need some, I will send them to you after I finish refining them.”
Elder Wan Linyun waved his hand and said, “What can I use it for? I don’t have the heart for it.”
“You really scared me…”
“Heh heh heh, that Ambition Pill of yours seems to be refined from the Love Stone of Love Gu,” Elder Wan Linyun said seriously. “I obtained one from Liu Feixian and figured out the medicinal formula and theory within it. This item is not only effective for male cultivators who have weak mentalities, but also for female cultivators. You have to tell those who took the pills not to cause trouble.”
“I will remember.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Elder, you are able to determine that the main ingredient of the pill is the Love Stone with just one pill. I… am very impressed. Recently, I have been wanting to improve the formula. I want to add two herbs that will strengthen Yang.”
Wan Linyun smiled. “That’s not bad. It’s good that you know about this.”
Li Changshou thought for a while and took out a treasure pouch from his chest pocket. He said, “Elder, please bring this item with you to the North Continent. The North Continent is dangerous. Although I can’t help much, there are two paper effigies in the pouch, which are not afraid of the poisonous miasma.”
“Okay.” Wan Linyun took the treasure pouch and placed it in his sleeve solemnly.
That was purely for the sake of Li Changshou’s pride.
Ever since he returned from Pill Tripod Peak, Li Changshou had been thinking about the ‘poison of immortal senses’ that Elder Wan Linyun had come up with.
After the poisonous pill was refined, it would be like a Sensing Stone, and could be worn on one’s body.
Its effect was to injure the person who had tried to search him using immortal senses. However, the damage would not be significant. At most, it would cause the person to feel a headache and some dizziness.
Li Changshou, on the other hand, felt that that poisonous pill would be rather useless.
If he were to replace the main ingredient, which was the Blue Crystal Divine Spiked Worms, with other herbs to achieve the effect of secretly marking the source of immortal senses, that would harm the other party and be more useful…
Ahem, only then would that be a good item for anti-reconnaissance!
“What can be used to replace the worms?”
Li Changshou subconsciously fell into deep thought. His knowledge in that aspect was definitely not as rich as Elder Wan Linyun’s. Furthermore, it was not as convenient for him to go out and move around, as compared to Elder Wan Linyun…
Huh?
Li Changshou suddenly thought of something.
The demonic vixen that I and Uncle-Master Jiu Wu had captured…
That demonic vixen’s Enchantment Spell…
The Love Stone that I’m holding onto…
Immortal senses are the senses of one’s heart… Marking the reconnoiters and affecting their minds…
“That’s true. I can start with this…”
Li Changshou muttered to himself for a while before casually grabbing slip. He sat on the rocking chair in front of the Pill Chamber and began to draw and write on it with a carving knife.
Very quickly, an immortal sense poisonous pill that was temporarily known as “If you look at me, you will be marked and have your heart burned” slowly took shape under his carving knife.
The highest realm of poisoning was to make the other party take the initiative and fall for the trick unknowingly.
After being busy for half a day, Li Changshou felt a little dizzy. He scanned the figure in the spiritual beast enclosure with his immortal senses…
The three figures there were busy chopping wood, chopping trees, and digging soil. They were much more hardworking than before.
Li Changshou looked at their figures and was slightly dazed. He smiled secretly.
As expected, the ones who work hard are the most beautiful. In the end, no one lied to me.
In Elder Moon Hall of the Heavenly Courts, General Dongmu looked around and crept up carefully.
