Chapter 664: Five Hundred Years Old

~8 min read 1,498 words

Aaron walked out of the Heavenly Pill Tower, his pace constantly quickening.

After changing directions several times in a row, he walked out of Qianyang City and flew away for dozens of miles.

During this process, the clothes on his body, his appearance, and even the scent on him... were all constantly changing.

Finally, in a desolate wilderness, he carefully checked the clothes of his black-faced persona, as well as the pills and Spirit Stones from the Heavenly Pill Tower several times, transferred them into several other Storage Bags, and then burned these Storage Bags along with his outer coat in one fire.

Furthermore, his Divine Sense was constantly observing his surroundings; once he discovered a Golden Core Cultivator approaching, he would immediately execute the Blood Burning Escape Technique to run away...

But in the end, nothing happened...

【Realm: Foundation Establishment Late Stage】

In short, don't give danger a single chance!

Using the identity of Shen Fei to purchase pills suitable for increasing cultivation at the Foundation Establishment Initial and Mid-stages was still quite reasonable.

Su Cao was earnestly trying to persuade Hua Sanniang when he suddenly saw Shen Fei, played by Aaron: "Fellow Daoist Shen..."

Su Cao's smile immediately stiffened on his face...

This day.

"You surnamed Su, what did you say back then? You were going to treat me well for a lifetime, and it's only been how many years?"

He planned to let the cultivation of the Shen Fei identity increase slowly.

Seeing big business arrive, the shopkeeper smiled until his teeth were invisible.

Besides...

"Sanniang... why buy 'True Essence Pill'? It is too wasteful for an initial-stage cultivator to take True Essence Pill... it would be better to buy Ginseng Essence Pill, it costs many fewer Spirit Stones."

"Hmm, this True Essence Pill is indeed good. Two fellow Daoists, I shall take my leave..."

Of course... the greater possibility was that Su Cao had already succeeded and grown tired of playing...

Hua Sanniang looked at Aaron's departing back, regret welling up in her heart more than once... perhaps, the choice back then was wrong?

Continue to draw Talismans and sell Talismans every day... occasionally save up some Spirit Stones to investigate the more developed entertainment industries in Great Gan...

While Hua Sanniang herself began to grow old and lose her looks...

Hua Sanniang forced a smile, but the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes could not be hidden no matter what.

Aaron shrugged his shoulders and returned to his Cave Abode to continue practicing.

【Age: 500】

"Fellow Daoist... please keep your five bottles of True Essence Pill well."

"First, give me five bottles of 'True Essence Pill'!"

Inside the shop, intense arguing between a man and a woman suddenly broke out...

'It was worth it that I inquired about the background of the Heavenly Pill Tower beforehand and specifically chose this day when their Ancestor was away to trade...'

In the Cave Abode.

And having lost the help of a fellow Daoist, her cultivation needs all had to rely on Su Cao's supply.

Aaron stayed in the wilderness for several days, then transformed into the appearance of Shen Fei and returned to Qianyang City in a leisurely manner.

However, for the sake of a sense of ritual in life, Aaron still made himself a bowl of longevity noodles.

Just closing the door and being happy in secret was enough; there was really no need to make a big fuss.

"Not bad... my Talisman Making technique has improved again recently. I've saved up some Spirit Stones and am preparing to find an opportunity to go into seclusion to break through to the Mid-stage realm..."

Watching the other party make a fortune, Aaron didn't feel much envy.

At this moment, another pair of Daoist companions walked into the pill shop.

'True Essence Pill' is the best pill for increasing Dharma Power at the Foundation Establishment Initial stage, and it can even be used at the Foundation Establishment Mid-stage.

"Fellow Daoist is about to break through to the Foundation Establishment Mid-stage? Truly joyous and congratulatory, joyous and congratulatory..."

It was still possible for cultivation to regress if a Golden Core breakthrough failed.

Aaron revealed a hint of a smile.

After all, without a certain level of strength, earning too many Spirit Stones was no different from courting death.

The pill shopkeeper saw business arrive, his face full of smiles.

'But for the sake of safety, these things that must be done, still have to be done!'

It was already miserable enough to fail at posturing and get humiliated instead...

【Name: Fang Yu (Aaron)】

"What kind of pill does Fellow Daoist wish to purchase?"

"Good..."

But Su Cao was only a Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Haoran Sect; even his Cave Abode in Qianyang City was borrowed from the sect, and he had no special skills, so his life gradually became strained...

Seeing Aaron, Hua Sanniang smiled and greeted him, taking the initiative to take Su Cao's arm.

At least in front of outsiders, she had to maintain appearances.

The affairs between this man and woman were a pollution to the ears even if one heard just one more sentence...

"Sanniang... how about we switch to Ginseng Essence Pill?" Su Cao began to feel the pinch of Spirit Stones at this moment.

【Cultivation Method: Mingyu Art 13th Layer (1988/3000)】

At that time, would it be possible to come out to buy pills for healing while at the Foundation Establishment Initial stage or even the Qi Refining realm?

Aaron still preferred to buy everything in one go, preparing for the worst by attempting it in his Cave Abode; if he failed, he would immediately heal on the spot and take pills to increase his Dharma Power, trying his best to shorten the time for re-cultivation until the Golden Core was successfully formed.

He had only improved one fishing method for the Lure Demon Manual, and there were still many beast baits that had not been developed into pills.

At this moment, the clerk who had gone to the back to retrieve the pills came out holding a jade tray, on which five bottles of True Essence Pill were neatly arranged.

【Talent: Immortality】

By then, with a Foundation Establishment Mid-stage cultivation base, going into secluded meditation for over a hundred years and emerging as a Golden Core Cultivator would be quite normal.

Furthermore, after purchasing a batch using this identity, he also prepared to switch to several other identities to ensure his supply of medicinal pills was sufficient.

Heavenly Pill Tower launched a "Lure Fish Pill," which cost only a few hundred Spirit Stones per bottle and was highly sought after by cultivators Fishing in Ten Thousand Demon Lake.

"Today is this seat's five-hundredth birthday..."

【Spell:... Blood Burning Escape Technique (100/100)】

Su Cao also felt jealousy in his heart, and at this moment, he said generously to the shopkeeper: "Give me two bottles of 'True Essence Pill'!"

'Once again, I have pitted my wits against the air...'

Then, after waiting for the Great Auction House to arrive and successfully bidding for enough "Duer Pill," he could begin his secluded meditation.

Several years later.

As a Foundation Establishment cultivator, living to the lifespan of a Golden Core Ancestor was still quite shocking in the Immortal Cultivation World.

"Fellow Daoist Shen... long time no see, how have you been recently?"

Aaron arrived at another medicinal pill shop, preparing to purchase some pills to improve Dharma Power for the Foundation Establishment Initial and Mid-stages.

Heaven have mercy, she truly did not conspire with an adulterer to kill for treasure; it was just that the atmosphere in Great Gan was poor, there were too many rogue cultivators, the outside world was too dangerous, and the falling of fellow practitioners was normal!

Alas... as the organizer, this blame was still pinned on her.

Hua Sanniang also had a face full of sorrow.

He turned his head again and said to Aaron: "This True Essence Pill is the best pill for improving Dharma Power in the Foundation Establishment Initial stage..."

"It's a pity... I cannot celebrate ostentatiously."

"Mm, congratulations, Fellow Daoist."

Aaron waved his hand with the air of someone wealthy and imposing.

His expression was cold; after all, after being invited several times and refusing, the relationship between the two sides had collapsed.

Aaron inspected the medicinal pills, put them into his Storage Bag, cupped his hands, and left.

Outsiders would only attribute the time he spent re-cultivating during those few failed Golden Core attempts to him breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Late stage... and then succeeding in forming the Golden Core in one go!

If he were to lose more wealth, it would be too heartbreaking...

After finishing the noodles, Aaron smacked his lips and found them a bit bland; in a trance, he felt as if something was missing...

Subsequently, he realized: "A birthday must be celebrated properly... off to the brothel to listen to music..."
