79.Xu Shan Fights Against Yuan Yuan

After the pill entered his stomach, Xu Shan tried his best to detect the changes it brought about. After feeling for a while, there was nothing unusual. A Body Forging Pill like this only has a bit of effect on Qi Refining stage cultivators and doesn't have much use for Foundation Establishment stage cultivators. But that wasn't important. What was important was the effect of the filling.

Xu Shan made two more pills in succession and then returned to his residence, satisfied. It wasn't enough for him to test it himself. He also needed to let the low-rank disciples in the outer sect try it to verify the effect. He would refine more pills tomorrow and let several people test them. He knew exactly what the outer sect disciples were like. They would be overjoyed to have Body Forging Pills to eat! Besides, he had spirit stones in his hand. If necessary, he could just directly bribe a few people.

He turned around and went back to his residence. Xu Shan simply washed himself by the nearby river. He washed off the strong medicinal smell remaining on his body and then threw himself into intense training again.

He kept practicing the single sword move on the open ground! This was also a last resort. He had been in the Xinglan Sect for too short a time. He had only learned the Fireball Technique and didn't have any other offensive spells. Although the Fireball Technique was useful, there weren't many opportunities to use it effectively.

The white light from the inheritance in his body, he was still constantly refining it with spiritual energy. It would probably take more than half a month to successfully refine it. At present, what he could practice were only the basic swordsmanship moves! Female cultivators would definitely have no power to resist this!

He could now stab more than twenty times within a second! As long as a female cultivator dared to attack, once he used the "washing machine" move and combined it with this swordsmanship.... He would let her know what it means to be completely overwhelmed!

He practiced like this for two whole hours. Xu Shan was slightly sweating. The light pink sweat soaked through his clothes, and a faint fragrance wafted from his body. Xu Shan smiled slightly. The effect was good. So far, it was just as he had imagined.

.....

Xu Shan's life was very regular. For three consecutive days, he spent his time refining pills, practicing swordsmanship, and refining the inheritance of the Immortality Seeking Platform.

On this day, Xu Shan was stabbing at the target with his sword as usual. The chrysanthemum on the target had been poked full of holes by him and had been repaired several times. As for how proficient he had become... Xu Shan wouldn't say he was invincible in the world. But within five seconds, he could accurately stab every fold of the chrysanthemum! After performing this set of swordsmanship, he would make sure the enemy's intestines fell out and they couldn't get up again!

After stabbing off another chrysanthemum, Xu Shan put away his sword and went up to rearrange the wooden target. At this moment, Yuan Yuan arrived on his flying sword. He landed in front of Xu Shan and said with a smile, "Brother Xu, you're still practicing swordsmanship so hard?"

Xu Shan was taken aback. "Brother Yuan, is there something wrong?"

"Nothing. I just want to consult with you. Brother Xu, you must have been outstanding in the Xinglan Sect, right? Although I'm an alchemy cultivator and not good at fighting, I'm still quite interested in this. I'd like to ask you for some advice."

Xu Shan thought for a moment and then nodded. "Alright, but please show mercy, Brother Yuan. I'm only at the early Foundation Establishment stage."

"Eh? Are you kidding me?" Yuan Yuan blinked his small eyes, looking a bit confused. A person with Heavenly Luck supernatural powers, who caused a huge commotion in the secret realm and defeated a group of people. And now he said he was at the early Foundation Establishment stage?

"That's right. I'm indeed at the early Foundation Establishment stage. I still don't know your cultivation realm, Brother Yuan."

"The late Foundation Establishment stage. Be careful." Yuan Yuan took two steps back and assumed a fighting stance.

There was no need for Xu Shan to lie. Then the reason why he could do such earth-shattering things in the secret realm must be because of his Heavenly Luck supernatural powers! This was something from the legends. He must have a look at it today!

Xu Shan didn't dare to be negligent and prepared himself for the fight. In actual combat... He really lacked practical combat experience! Since he started his cultivation journey, he had faced geniuses, Golden Core stage cultivators, Nascent Soul stage cultivators, and huge beasts. Although the late Foundation Establishment stage was still higher in cultivation realm than him, it was at least within an acceptable range. He was eager to hone his combat skills!

Yuan Yuan picked up a stone and weighed it in his hand. "When the stone lands, we'll start." With that, he threw the stone into the air.

Xu Shan concentrated all his energy. As soon as he heard the sound of the stone hitting the ground, he rushed towards Yuan Yuan like a rabbit!

Seeing him charge forward, Yuan Yuan wasn't flustered. He retreated at the same time and took out a pill from his hand. After crushing it, a gray mist rose and transformed into the shape of a tiger, pouncing towards Xu Shan.

Both of their speeds were very fast. With no way to avoid it, Xu Shan threw a fireball from his hand. The fireball passed through the tiger and flew straight into the sky. And after a short dispersion, the tiger condensed back into shape.

Yuan Yuan controlled it with ease. Seeing this, he laughed and said, "Brother Xu, you probably haven't fought an alchemy cultivator before. This big beast is condensed from the power of the pill. If you get even slightly contaminated by it, it can erode your skin and flesh. The fire of your Fireball Technique is far from enough to disperse it. Hurry up and show your real skills!"

Xu Shan's performance was a bit beyond his expectations. He was indeed just at the level of an ordinary early Foundation Establishment stage cultivator. Well, to be fair, he was stronger than an ordinary one. The way he used the Fireball Technique just now was really amazing. At least according to his own level, he couldn't throw it as fast as Xu Shan. It took almost less than a single breath, which showed that he had a high level of proficiency in the Fireball Technique.

Hearing this, Xu Shan gave up the idea of defeating the tiger and dodged and moved towards Yuan Yuan.

Seeing Xu Shan approaching him, Yuan Yuan revealed a red pill in his hand. With a flick of his hand, it turned into a light red arrow and flew out of his hand! This arrow hit Xu Shan's chest accurately!

A smile appeared on Yuan Yuan's face, but then his expression changed greatly! Something was wrong? Why didn't the arrow pill have any effect? Was it blocked by him?

In a moment, Xu Shan had stood up and, without anyone noticing, took out something from his storage bag with his right hand. He threw it all at Yuan Yuan's face. A large cloud of dark pink mist exploded in front of Yuan Yuan's face, immediately enveloping both of them.

It was the powder of the Butterfly Wing Grass! Yuan Yuan was caught off guard and his eyes were blinded by it. The powder of this grass was extremely fine and covered his whole face. He had been fully prepared to defend against Xu Shan's attack, but he didn't expect him to play dirty!

"Brother Xu, you're so despicable! We agreed to have a fair fight..." Yuan Yuan's words were cut off as his whole body stiffened. He didn't dare to move, and a cold feeling came from his buttocks.

The pink mist gradually dissipated, and Xu Shan stood proudly behind Yuan Yuan with his sword. The tip of the sword was pointing at Yuan Yuan's butt. Yuan Yuan didn't doubt for a moment that if he moved, what awaited him would be "Fierce Thrusting Three Thousand Times".... Xu Shan had specifically practiced this move, and he wasn't sure if he could react in time. He couldn't take this risk!

"I admit defeat... Take the sword away quickly!" Yuan Yuan admitted defeat with a dark face. Damn it, this was the first time he had seen someone so dirty!

Xu Shan put away his sword with a disappointed look. Yuan Yuan's alchemy-based fighting method was indeed different from any of the cultivator battles recorded in the projection jade slips he had seen. However, Yuan Yuan himself seemed to have very little combat experience, and his alertness in battle was also lacking. His strength was not as strong as Lin Yue's, and his experience was also not as rich as Lin Yue's. It was a bit of a pity that he was easily successfully sneak attack.

"Brother Xu, your methods are a bit too underhanded, aren't they?" Yuan Yuan complained as he wiped his face.

Xu Shan didn't comment. "I'm sorry for that."

"Brother Yuan, you came at the right time. I was just going to ask you where we usually sell pills. I've refined some pills and I'm wondering if it's okay to sell them?"

After a brief cleanup, Yuan Yuan said, "Yes, there is. About fifty miles from here, there is a Qingshan Bazaar. Many sects like to trade there. It's held once a month, and we usually go there when we want to sell pills."

"However, considering your special situation, I need to ask my master if you can go out with us."

"Then I'll trouble you, Brother Yuan." Xu Shan clasped his fists.

Yuan Yuan looked him up and down twice, nodded, and then turned around and flew away.

"Cough! Cough... Cough!" After he left, Xu Shan bent over and coughed a few times, looking a bit pained. He had still been hit after all. That red arrow that hit him felt like being cut by a group of people with knives. Fortunately, there was only the pain. It should pass after a while.
