Chapter 2: Seeking the Path to Immortality

It is said that people disappear from time to time, and these people are hiding among the crowd.

This matter has caused some people to panic, so the people from the Taichu Sect have come to investigate.

Su Yu and his companion knew what this matter was about, but it was up to them to solve it.

Indeed, wherever there is a dazzling side of justice, a side of evil will inevitably breed.

The light of the Taichu Sect is dazzling, which also causes some people to harbor strange thoughts in their hearts.

And once this thought appears, it will continue to grow.

But it is impossible to contend with the current Taichu Sect.

At this moment, in a remote forest, there was actually a huge pavilion, and there were quite a few people inside.

The man sitting in the center as the leader had a shocking scar on his face.

Behind him was a sickly-looking man, and that man seemed to be muttering something at all times.

Things like "fuse this, fuse that," as if he couldn't stop.

The man in the lead had a cultivation of Qi Refining Stage 5, while those present below basically had the cultivation of Qi Refining Stage 3.

These people were the culprits behind the recent unrest there.

They were originally people from the Taichu Sect, but over time, they thought about starting their own force; they wanted to replace the Taichu Sect.

What is maintaining the world? Ruling the world is what's interesting; you get whatever you want.

Anyone who dares to oppose them must disappear.

With this belief, they fled the Taichu Sect.

They founded the current force, and they had also achieved some good results.

He didn't expect that there were quite a few people with such thoughts, which allowed them to become a force to be reckoned with.

They had a little capital to contend with them.

And now he also had a secret weapon.

The people below looked at Shen Li, "Sect Master, when can we move out?"

Shen Li said, "We cannot act rashly now. The Taichu Sect is not that simple, especially that Li Shi."

"He has reached Qi Refining Stage 9 for a long time; he is not an existence we can contend with."

"What we need to do now is to find as many of those immortal cultivation Opportunities as possible and obtain the Legacy Cultivation Technique."

"The only chance now is to wait for that old guy Li Shi's Lifespan to run out."

"We are not short on time, but that old guy is different."

"As long as Li Shi dies, it will be simple to dismantle the Taichu Sect."

The people below said, "Sect Master, what if that old guy breaks through to the legendary Foundation Establishment Stage? Then we won't have any chance at all."

Shen Li smiled, "Wanting to break through to that legendary Foundation Establishment is not that easy."

"You must know that once you enter Foundation Establishment, you can fly; that is a true immortal skill."

"He is already of old age and has no hope; just slowly eroding and secretly destroying things is enough."

"First, make people's hearts unstable; that way, it will be easy for us to control them."

Shen Li looked at Feng Yu behind him, "When the time comes, I will have to rely on you."

Shen Li looked at the crowd below and said again, "Go find some more people who meet the conditions, and just send them to Feng Yu's side when the time comes."

At this time, everyone looked left and right, feeling a bit embarrassed for a moment. But the difficulty was not in finding people, but in going to Feng Yu's side.

In their eyes, Feng Yu did not distinguish between friend and foe, and that place was truly too terrifying.

They considered themselves to be wicked villains, but going to Feng Yu's side still made them feel uncomfortable, and one could even say, somewhat fearful.

Seeing this, Shen Li understood, "Rest assured, you don't need to go in; just send them to the door and you can leave."

Hearing this, everyone felt relieved.

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing had already been walking in the city for a while.

Every few steps, they could hear discussions about Li Shi.

The two walked towards the Taichu Sect.

The Taichu Sect did not have a fixed time to recruit Disciples; after all, their numbers were not high now.

There were simply too few people with Spiritual Roots.

Therefore, one could basically go to the Taichu Sect every day; as long as one had a Spiritual Root, one could join the Taichu Sect.

Along the way, Su Yu and the other noticed some things, but neither of them paid any attention.

Of course, they did not know that the creator of this world had just walked past them.

Su Yu and the other soon arrived near the Taichu Sect.

Looking at the extremely imposing giant pavilion in front of them, as well as many buildings distributed around it.

This was the number one Sect in the world, the Taichu Sect.

At this time, quite a few people had already arrived here.

Su Yu looked over; there were ordinary people with somewhat tattered clothes.

There were also rich Young Misses and Young Masters sitting in carriages wearing gorgeous clothes.

There were also many people from martial arts families; they were all here to test for Spiritual Roots.

Su Yu and the Taiyin Spirit were dressed plainly and did not attract anyone's attention.

The two were just here to take a look.

Soon, someone came out to test everyone's Spiritual Roots.

The person who came had a cultivation of Qi Refining Stage 4.

His appearance immediately caused exclamations from the crowd, "Elder Leng has come out!"

"This Elder Leng has a cultivation of Qi Refining Stage 4; he is an expert who has crossed the threshold."

This threshold was the so-called Qi Refining Stage 3.

Leng Yang looked at the crowd, "Alright, be quiet. Line up to have your Spiritual Roots tested."

The Taiyin Spirit said, "How about it? Do you want to experience it?"

"Let's go."

The two also started to line up.

As the testing continued, no one with a Spiritual Root had appeared so far.

Leng Yang had long expected this.

It is very difficult for someone with a Spiritual Root to appear.

Just at this moment, the appearance of a figure suddenly caused the crowd present to explode into an uproar.

"Sect Master Li has appeared! I didn't expect him to come."

Li Shi's appearance was unexpected to everyone, and even Leng Yang had not anticipated this.

He hurriedly came to the Sect Master, "Sect Master, why are you here?"

Li Shi looked at the crowd below.

"I don't know why, but today I just had a feeling in my heart that I wanted to come out and take a look, so I came out."

Li Shi himself could not explain it clearly; in the dark, he just wanted to come out and take a look.

Li Shi looked at the crowd below, and finally, his gaze turned to Su Yu and his companion.

These two were ordinary, with nothing worth noting, but they also felt somewhat different.

I wonder if these two have Spiritual Roots.

The Taiyin Spirit looked at Li Shi, "Oh? I didn't expect such a fate."

When Su Yu and the other were finally tested, no light appeared.

Seeing this, Li Shi didn't say anything else.

Watching their departing figures, he felt a bit strange in his heart.

What exactly is going on? They were clearly just two people I had never met before. Forget it, I won't think about it; I'll go back.

It has been a hundred years now, and I still haven't seen any hope of breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

My father passed away long ago, and now I am not far from that day myself.

Is there really no other way? The arrogance I had when I first came into contact with immortal cultivation seems to have started to dissipate.

The immortality I pursued for a lifetime is, in the end, nothing more than a handful of yellow soil.

Immortality, oh immortality, what does immortality have to do with me?
