Hide in The Immortal Cultivation World, Strike Hard in the Martial World - Chapter 321 160: Fifth Layer of Body Refining, Return to Zhao Family Island_3

Hmm?

Chen Yi was perplexed. He had come here to eat the demon carp, the pillar industry of the Zhao Family on Spirit Fish Island. How could it be out of stock?

“Bring your shopkeeper here!”

Chen Yi came off aggressive, releasing a late Qi cultivation level’s mana pressure, frightening the waiter into sitting on the ground.

In a moment,

Liu Huo, a stout man with a beard, came out. Upon seeing Chen Yi, he promptly apologized courteously and led Chen Yi to a secret room inside.

Once they stepped inside, just as Liu Huo was about to pay his respects,

He was stopped by Chen Yi, who set up an Array Method that encompassed both of them. Under absolute secrecy, Chen Yi revealed his true face.

“Brother Chen, it really is you!” Liu Huo exclaimed, quite excited.

“Liu Huo, I don’t have much time. What’s your cultivation level now? Are you still keen on reaching the Foundation Establishment? I have a substandard Foundation Establishment Pill here. The pill property matches the Martial Method you cultivate in. Let it go at cost price of 2000 spirit stones and it’s yours.”

The cost of making a substandard Foundation Establishment Pill lies around 1000 spirit stones. However, considering the many waste pills he made before, including those in the cost, 2000 spirit stones did not seem excessive.

This substandard Foundation Establishment Pill would be worth over 3000 spirit stones on the market.

Liu Huo paused for a moment, “Brother Chen, as expected, you’ve become successful! I knew it back then that I wasn’t wrong about you. You’d definitely become the strongest amongst all of us.

Foundation Establishment Pill, huh…”

Liu Huo sighed and continued,

“Brother Chen, I’m not one to hide things from you. I had reached the peak level of Qi cultivation years ago and had got a Meridian Protection Pill and even strived for Foundation Establishment once,

But it ended in failure.

Due to the condition of my meridians and Dantian now, even if I possess a Foundation Establishment Pill, the success rate drops below ten percent,

Given my age, I don’t wish to torment myself any further.”

Liu Huo was a few years older than Chen Yi and was already sixty-five this year.

Not everyone was like Chen Yi, maintaining his youth and vitality at sixty. Liu Huo indeed missed his opportunity for Foundation Establishment.

Chen Yi felt helpless. Originally, the four of them were gifted cultivators. Now, only Liu Huo was still in the stage of Qi Cultivation.

“Brother Chen, are you in need of spirit stones?” Liu Huo quickly reacted:

“Brother Chen, I have 3500 spirit stones here, which are all the savings I’ve acquired over the years.

It’s fine if I, old Liu, can’t establish my foundation, but I want to ask you for a favor.

When my son, Liu Changsheng, needs to establish his foundation, could you help him out? What do you think?”

Liu Huo stared at Chen Yi intently, his eyes filled with pleading.

3500 Spirit stones? It seemed that Liu Huo’s target was not my substandard Foundation Establishment Pill, but he wanted me to prepare a genuine pill for his son in the future.

Although this request seemed excessive, it wasn’t really a problem for Chen Yi.

After some thought, Chen Yi accepted the spirit stones,

“Hey, I can only give it a try. No guarantees here. When the time comes, have Changsheng come to find me. I won’t give you this substandard Foundation Establishment Pill.”

“Thank you, Brother Chen!”

Liu Huo was overtaken with excitement, aware that when Chen Yi said he’d give it a try, he had in essence agreed to do it.

Next, Liu Huo briefly explained his situation. After Chen Yi had understood,

He left the secret room.

The conversation had only lasted a few minutes.

After leaving, Chen Yi maintained a poker face. He didn’t continue eating at the place, but left with Liu Emei instead.

It turned out that ever since the Zhao Family had been bullied by the Tan and Wu Families more than a decade ago,

The business of the Zhao Family’s Red Blooded Demon Carp had been stolen by the other two families,

The Red Blooded Demon Carp was the special dish of the Tan Family’s restaurant.

As for this, Chen Yi lost interest in the dish and decided tomake a trip to Zhao Family Island and leave as soon as he had finished his business.

Chen Yi took out his flying boat and, changing back to his true appearance, headed in the direction of Zhao Family Island, pulling along Liu Emei.

Now, the speed of this first-tier mid-level flying boat was somewhat slow for Chen Yi who had already reached the Foundation Establishment Stage.

It’s not that Chen Yi wanted to show off his speed in the flying boat, but sometimes, it was used for escaping or rushing. If the speed was too slow, it’d be easy to be caught up. He’d have to find an opportunity to get a better one.

However,

Just as Chen Yi was flying out of Spirit Fish Island and within a hundred miles,

A spiritual light flashed behind him,

A young man in a white robe driving a second tier flying boat was rapidly approaching Chen Yi.

Chen Yi’s heart tightened. Bandit cultivators?

Just as he was ready for a fight, a voice came from behind:

“Alchemist Chen ahead, it’s been twenty years. I trust you’ve been well?”

Chen Yi looked back and recognized an old acquaintance.

The man who had managed the affairs of the Tan Family on Spirit Fish Island, the Second Young Master of the Tan Family, Tan Fei,

From his spiritual pressure, it seemed he had also reached foundation establishment.

Observing that it was just a man at the initial Foundation Establishment stage who had chased after him, Chen Yi felt much at ease.

If the other party had malicious intentions, he probably wouldn’t be able to handle Chen Yi’s strike.

After all, on the surface, the Tan family was still managing this area. He, with a clear identity, couldn’t just launch an attack out of the blue a hundred miles off the island.

“Second Young Master Tan, what is the reason for stopping me?”

Chen Yi answered indifferently.

Back in the day, when Tan Fei was recruiting Chen Yi at the Silk Pleasure Pavilion, he had spoken to Chen Yi while lying down at the sight of him.

But now, Chen Yii and Tan Fei were both at the Foundation Establishment stage. Furthermore, with Chen Yi’s second tier status as an alchemist and physician, his status was even higher than Tan Fei’s.

Tan Fei stopped about a hundred meters away, fanning himself and said:

“Alchemist Chen, you’ve abandoned the good life in Wangyue City and rushed back all this way, you wouldn’t be planning to step in the muddy waters of Zhao Family Island, would you?”

Tan Fei was taken aback when he heard that Chen Yii had succeeded in Foundation Establishment at sixty. He didn’t expect that the inconspicuous alchemist from the Zhao Family’s Medicine Shop back in the day had actually managed to establish his foundation successfully, equalling him.

He had just received a secret letter from his third brother, Tan Feng, informing him that Chen Yi had returned to the Zhao Family, with unclear intentions, telling him to watch out.

Right now, it was hard for him to do something to Chen Yi openly.

“Well, isn’t this something? Chen Yi, who grew up on Zhao Family Island, has successfully established his foundation and is now returning to visit his friends,

Second Young Master Tan, do you have a problem with that?”

Chen Yi squinted his eyes. Back when Tan Fei tried to recruit Chen Yi unsuccessfully, the Demon Cultivator Old Wu tried to lure Chen Yi to leave the island several times, intending to harm him. Ever since confirming that Old Wu’s master, the Demon Cultivator Ghost Shadow, was Tan Qingzhi of the Tan Family, Chen Yi suspected that the culprit behind the scenes was Second Young Master Tan in front of him.

But since he never had the opportunity to retaliate, Chen Yi didn’t feel like making a special trip back to kill a man.

However, Tan Feng dared to fly to Chen Yi’s face now.

Chen Yi could kill him with a single punch.
