Immortality: My cultivation Has No Bottleneck

In the four years after returning from the black market with the pill formula, Liang Sheng would visit the market every month, as he couldn’t sever all ties with the market.

Amongst the Market, no one knew that the seemingly third-level Qi cultivator talisman master was actually refining Foundation Establishment Pills now.

By the fifth year, the three controllers of the black market contacted him. Liang Sheng observed the situation outside for a whole month and, after confirming everything was okay, cautiously entered the black market.

The trio thought Liang Sheng was in closed-door cultivation for alchemy, so they waited a month without any complaints. Then, they presented him with two sets of materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill.

“I shall not fail this mission.”

Pei Shiping quietly said these four words to Liang Sheng, his eyes filled with enthusiasm. Liang Sheng naturally understood his meaning.

“Once the Foundation Establishment Pill is completed, 1 will contact you. However, the first three sets of materials have failed, so you need to wait.”

In the following years, Liang Sheng’s life completely settled into a routine: planting spiritual grass, refining pills, cultivating, drawing talismans. Five years passed, during which Pei Shiping and the others provided three more sets of materials, but the Foundation Establishment Pill still failed.

By the tenth year, Pei Shiping and the others couldn’t help but contact Liang Sheng again. Seeing that he hadn’t succeeded in refining the pill, they were somewhat disappointed, but they didn’t make it difficult for him.

After all, if it was so easy to refine Foundation Establishment Pills, why wouldn’t these old-timers do it themselves?

Liang Sheng didn’t say much either. He had a feeling in his heart that he was getting closer and closer to refining the Foundation Establishment Pill successfully.

Because the spiritual grass in the spiritual field could finally be harvested. The ten years’ worth of spiritual grass were enough for him to start refining Foundation Establishment Pills.

There were far more than a hundred complete sets of refining spiritual grass for Foundation Establishment Pills in the spiritual field.

This time, after Liang Sheng harvested the spiritual grass and replanted all the Foundation Establishment Pill spiritual grass, he fully immersed himself in the rhythm of refining pills.

He no longer needed to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill only once a year like before. Now, with ample spiritual grass, he could refine it once every two months.

Time passed like this, and finally, on the twentieth year after obtaining the Foundation Establishment Pill formula, and the seventieth time he refined the pill, he successfully made a batch of Foundation Establishment Pills.

One piece, a low-grade Foundation Establishment Pill!

Liang Sheng didn’t rush to take it as he wasn’t worried about the possibility of failing to breakthrough. After all, for him, there was no bottleneck; the only difference was the quality of the pill.

As long as he persisted, he could definitely refine a top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill. In this case, why should he settle for a low-grade one?

If it were a life-or-death crisis, Liang Sheng might still choose to take it, but with a better option available now, why should he rush?

He wasn’t one of those loose cultivators in the market, constrained by their lifespan; he had plenty of time and didn’t mind waiting a little longer.

In the twenty-first year, he refined three more low-grade Foundation Establishment Pills.

Recalling the Heavenly Dao oath he once made, he sent a message and chose a location, then waited for Pei Shiping and the others to arrive.

Concealed in the shadows he watched as the three of them appeared. He undid the Concealment Array that hid the low-grade Foundation Establishment Pills and suddenly three jade bottles appeared in front of Pei Shiping and the others, along with the communication jade slip previously given to Liang Sheng.

Seeing this, Pei Shiping and the others were momentarily stunned. They wondered why there were jade bottles instead of the alchemist showing up. Immediately after, they realized what was happening and each took a jade bottle, filled with joy after opening them.

Foundation Establishment Pills!

They never thought that Liang Sheng would really succeed in alchemy, and that he would still be so cautious as to not show his face at this time.

However, the three of them had no other intentions. They guessed what Liang Sheng meant. They then bowed to the place where the jade bottles were placed, took back the communication jade slip, and hurried away.

With their Foundation Establishment within reach, how could they calm down? Although the chance of Foundation Establishment was low, it was still their last hope.

Pei Shiping and the others each returned to their closed-door cultivation to prepare for their breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, but that’s a story for another time. Meanwhile, Liang Sheng continued refining pills, and finally, in the twenty-fifth year and after the ninetieth attempt at refining the Foundation Establishment Pill, he successfully produced a high-grade Foundation Establishment Pill.

At this moment, he had more than ten Foundation Establishment Pills on him, as well as three mid-grade ones, but only one top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill.

Success!
