System Bestows me with Immortality, Living on to Eventually Become Invincible-Chapter 61 – We are not Long Autian

He still hadn't used the Foundation Establishment Pill he had, because for someone with average aptitude, the risk of failure was quite high.

"Moo." Black Bull nodded heavily. It had been looking forward to this day for a long time. With a storage bag in its mouth, it walked towards another cave entrance.

Chen Xun squinted his eyes slightly and flew out on his sword, passing through the waterfall. He needed to keep watch outside to handle any unexpected situations.

They were caught in a whirlwind of daily busyness. Chen Xun constantly studied pill refining techniques, controlling the Drug Fire. It was well known that the strength of someone in the Qi cultivation phase was insufficient to refine these centuries-old spiritual herbs.

Firstly, the purity of the Drug Fire wasn't enough, and secondly, the spiritual herbs were too precious to be squandered. In just a few hundred years, the art of pill refining could consume a lifetime. For someone in the Qi cultivation phase, it was simply impossible.

...

Time passed like a knife, urging people to grow old. Years changed, and the world evolved. Six years had already gone by.

The sect was filled with joyful news. Some Inner Disciples had taken the Foundation Establishment Pill and successfully established their foundation. There were even those with extraordinary talent who broke through the tenth level of Qi cultivation without the pill and succeeded in establishing their foundation directly!

It was said that a peak master, while traveling, had found a girl with a Heavenly Spirit Root. The entire Five Aggregates Sect was in an uproar, with all the important figures coming out to personally greet her.

They even prepared a grand ceremony for her to join the sect, but ordinary Outer Disciples like them could only watch with envy.

Those with a Heavenly Spirit Root could reach the Golden Elixir phase with ease, their future boundless. They were considered the treasures of the Five Aggregates Sect, protected by all the elders and peak masters, never shown to outsiders.

Most people didn't even know what she looked like. Cultivators who reached the Golden Elixir phase were no fools.

But this news was enough to excite countless disciples. The future of the Five Aggregates Sect seemed promising, and their sense of belonging to the sect grew stronger. This was their true home.

In an ordinary Medicine Valley, there was a man and a bull. They were the invisible contributors of the Five Aggregates Sect, quietly making their contributions every year without seeking fame or fortune.

"Cluck, cluck, cluck~~"

Behind the waterfall in the Medicine Valley, there was a chicken coop. Chen Xun was feeding the chickens, while Black Bull held a feed bucket in its mouth.

There were more than twenty mountain chickens and many chicks, all plump and healthy. The eggs were often double-yolked and incredibly delicious.

As Chen Xun would say, sustainable development was key. Constant hunting would eventually lead to the extinction of the mountain beasts, which would be detrimental to their karma. Raising their own livestock was much more satisfying.

"Bull, our Five Aggregates Sect is getting stronger, and life is getting better and better."

Chen Xun said happily, still scattering feed. "A Heavenly Spirit Root, huh? If the peak master found her, she might become a Golden Elixir phase cultivator in a few years."

"Moo~~" Black Bull wagged its tail joyfully, hoping that more Heavenly Spirit Root talents would join the Five Aggregates Sect, feeling a sense of pride.

As for talents, in their Qi cultivation phase, their peers might already be in the Golden Elixir phase. What did it matter to them... they had no grudges.

Back in their small village, some might have already reached the pinnacle of the Dao. Comparing themselves to others would only bring discomfort. They weren't some overpowered protagonist destined to be mocked.

"But with great power comes great responsibility. These seniors are under a lot of pressure, carrying the weight for our Five Aggregates Sect."

Chen Xun said with a peaceful smile, finally finishing the feeding. "Haven't we heard that some small sects were wiped out in recent years, their mountain gates leveled? Our sect sent many people to investigate."

"Moo~" Black Bull nodded solemnly. Not only in the mortal world, but the world of immortals was also full of strife. Many Outer Disciples died every year.

"We have limited strength and don't like to stand out. Quietly tending to the fields of spiritual herbs can also contribute to the sect."

Chen Xun said with a smile. His mindset had become much more peaceful over the years, no longer as impulsive as a young hothead.

"Let's go, Bull. Today, I'm going to start refining pills. Let's see who dares to disrespect me!"

"Moo~~"

They marched off with great momentum. Black Bull put down the feed bucket with a thud, scaring the mountain chickens in the coop into a frenzy. Were they about to randomly select a lucky one again?

Over the past six years, they had finally maxed out their mana with longevity points. Now it was at 20, significantly boosting their spells.

They had tested it before. If they fully unleashed the Drug Fire, it could even melt the refining cauldron...

Moreover, the Drug Fire in the Qi cultivation phase was just a small crimson flame. If they didn't control it, their Drug Fire would turn white, becoming extremely cold and undergoing a qualitative change.

The small Fireball Technique was even more exaggerated. Last year, the deafening explosions and meteor-like fireballs almost destroyed the Medicine Valley's protective barrier.

"Bull, we can finally test that defense."

"Moo~"

"Hehe, maybe we'll become invulnerable, smashing stones with our chests, like the kings of street performances, haha..."

"Moo~~"

Laughter echoed in the sky above the Medicine Valley, then they plunged into the waterfall, entering their secret base.

Inside another cave entrance, it was filled with formations set up by Black Bull. If anything unexpected happened, it could remotely control and destroy the spiritual herbs without leaving a trace.

They had also buried spiritual herb seeds in a highly secretive location as a backup plan.

"Moo~" Black Bull called softly, standing tall. It made a strange gesture with its hooves, and the cave entrance returned to its original state, filled with various Foundation Establishment spiritual herbs, enough to drive anyone mad.

Chen Xun stood far away, constantly glancing outside. He was somewhat apprehensive about Black Bull's formations.

This Bull seemed carefree, but it had learned his tricks well. Many places in the Medicine Valley were filled with formations, and he had suffered quite a bit from them.

"Moo~"

"Here we go."

Chen Xun's eyes gleamed as he looked at the array of Foundation Establishment spiritual herbs in the cave abode. The main herbs were all over three hundred years old, translucent and exuding spiritual qi.

"Bull, keep an eye out. You've already learned the Sword Control Technique. If anything happens, I'll activate the sensing formation."

"Moo~" Black Bull nodded, patted its storage bag, and took out an Immortal Sword. Chen Xun had exchanged it for him, and it cherished it immensely, flying off on the sword.

A pill furnace hovered in the air as Chen Xun used the Goods Taming Technique. While others in the Qi cultivation phase could only control one object, he could control hundreds with minimal mana consumption.

"Rainbow Fruit, Moon Order Fruit."

Chen Xun murmured, a flame of Drug Fire igniting in his hand. It began to split into five flames. If anyone saw this, their eyes would pop out. Drug Fire could split? Could it be used like this?

"Each spiritual herb has different properties, requiring different temperatures and techniques for the Drug Fire. Without a master to teach me, I can only keep trying."

Chen Xun's fingers moved gracefully. The Rainbow Fruit soared into the pill furnace, and an hour later, it turned into a puddle of wasted liquid.

His face twitched, feeling a pang of pain. He picked up a small booklet to record his feelings, making adjustments calmly and methodically.
