Hide in The Immortal Cultivation World, Strike Hard in the Martial World - Chapter 363 - 178: Plotting Against Old Enemy_3

Chen Yi wasn’t truly angry. Since he has been in close contact with Song Chenchen and others this time, anyone observant could easily reveal his identity, so he didn’t bother disguising himself.

“Stalactite milk, indeed, I do have some,” Zhao declared. “I have fifty drops of second tier, and fifteen drops of third tier, but I don’t sell them for spirit stones. I exchange them for the main ingredients of a Crystallisation Pill, or two portions of other Core Formation spirit objects.”

Main ingredient for a Crystallisation Pill? Core Formation spirit objects?

He was asking for quite a lot.

Like the other cultivators, Chen Yi shook his head and withdrew.

Even if Chen Yi could afford it, he wouldn’t buy it in this place. Besides, objects capable of aiding in Core Formation weren’t exactly plentiful, were they?

Zhao Jingwu’s aim was clear – to quote exorbitant prices, earn a profit, and then wait for a real wealthy buyer to turn up.

With his late-stage Foundation Establishment Body Refining Cultivation, he didn’t have a care about money slipping through his fingers.

The uses of stalactite milk were manifold. As an extremely pure form of natural energy, it was naturally cultivated and could be consumed directly or added in various pill formulations.

It was an indispensable main ingredient in many mild Big Medicines.

As a physician and alchemist, Chen Yi purchasing a large amount of this would not arouse suspicion from others.

Regarding Zhao Jingwu’s other two gains, the main materials of the third tier magic weapon and the auxiliary ingredients of the Crystallisation Pill, Chen Yi didn’t inquire about the prices,

Not that he wasn’t interested, but his identity as Turtle Doctor was not supposed to be interested.

Moreover, a Crystallisation Pill still seemed a far off goal to Chen Yi, far less valuable than how much stalactite milk could enhance Chen Yi now.

As Chen Yi withdrew back into the crowd, intending to leave,

Suddenly, his spiritual platform stirred, sensing two gazes from people with ill intentions.

Chen Yi remained calm, carefully extending his Divine Sense to examine the situation,

He saw two men in conversation nearby, whose disguises were easily seen through by Chen Yi’s translating Turtle Breathing technique,

Both men were at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment and Chen Yi carefully compared the spiritual light above each of their heads with the people he had interacted with before,

“These two, really?”

One of the men was the rotating City Lord of Wangyue City, Yue Xiu. The other, a thin old man, was Liu Peng’s father, Liu Yonggang, who was an alchemist!

With these two men looking at him maliciously, what could they want? To rob him or something else?

To avoid their detection, Chen Yi retracted his Divine Sense, pretending to be oblivious as he left.

Deciding it was not a good idea to stay longer in the area, Chen Yi resolved to leave the Demon Territory quickly and return to Little Cold Peak.

Today’s harvest had been plentiful. He had gathered so much stalactite milk to push his cultivation a major step forward.

Once he had refined all the stalactite milk and synthesized medicines from the obtained medical materials, advances would be seen in his Body Refining Cultivation, making him even more efficient when he went out to find new resources.

Soon after, Chen Yi casually strolled around, feigning disappointment, shaking his head, and taking out a flying boat, ready to leave with the loose cultivators.

“The Yin and Yang Secret Realm, the Four-Colored Dragonfish…”

Looking back for the last time at the rapidly closing Secret Realm, Chen Yi knew that it would only open again after forty years.

Ideally, by that time, his Body Refining Cultivation would have no problem reaching the Pill Force. Then he could form a golden body with major damage reduction to magic attacks.

If he encountered that fish again, he should be able to defeat it, right?

When the time comes, he could claim the treasures within the Secret Realm at will…

He’d think about that later.

In the sky, the larger sects and powers were piloting large flying artifacts to leave slowly. Chen Yi, as a loose cultivator, was blending into the shadows of these massive artifacts, withdrawing alongside them,

With the shelter of these large artifact operators, the Demon Beasts usually did not dare to approach. The loose cultivators took advantage of this impact to withdraw with them, securing safe passage for a while longer.

However, the cultivators flew on mana energy, supported by large arrays, and guided by True Persons of Core Formation or Pseudo-core, their speed was much faster than the average cultivator.

So, even after a day, the loose cultivators began to drift away at different rates, looking for concealed spots to restock their liabilities and rest.

And now was just the right time for Bandit cultivators to bring out their magic weapons and start to work.

After three days, the loose cultivators separated,

Chen Yi alone selected a secluded route, flying towards the entrance of the Demon Territory,

Moments later, tens of miles from exiting the Demon Territory, he frowned. Within the view of his Turtle Breathing technique,

A malicious red light was following him from miles away,

Just twenty miles in front of Chen Yi’s flight path, there was another red light lurking.

“Hmph, one in the front and one in the back, one trailing me, one in the ambush?.”

Twenty miles away, was a narrow water route between two high islands. Generally, cultivators would quickly fly above it rather than taking the detour around the islands. The latter was not just far, but the chances of encountering Demon Beasts were much higher.

“They seem to have chosen an excellent ambush location.”

Chen Yi smirked,

Just when he was planning to take a different route, the next moment, he let out a gasp of surprise.

Near that narrow water area, there was a nearly purple light line that could barely be seen.

The purple light indicated that the person’s power level was higher, and even if Chen Yi confronted it head-on, he would need to be careful.

A faint hint of the light was there because Chen Yi did not sense any ill-intentions from this person,

Th𝚒ѕ 𝙘h𝒶p𝕥ɛr 𝒾ṡ p𝟬ʂ𝖙𝓮ⅆ bʏ 𝘒ıţℯ𝘯ℴ𝘷𝗲𝗅

“He’s not coming for me, then who is he after?”

Chen Yi seemed to have understood something,

“This should be interesting.”

Thinking for a moment, Chen Yi decided not to alter his course but continue towards the narrow water area as originally planned,

However,

He pretended to be power-deficient, so he flew slower, and slower.

With the man behind him about to catch up,

“Heh, he’d rather not reveal his target before reaching the location, so he should pass me and hide first while waiting for me to come.”

Chen Yi was adapting a method from his previous world to get rid of car trackers. As long as he slowed down and let his pursuer pass him, he was then in control.

As expected, seeing Chen Yi’s extremely slow speed, the man had no choice but to maintain his speed and pass Chen Yi,

When the two crossed, they were only hundreds of feet apart,

At this close distance, they could even see the minute expressions on each other’s faces,

The old thin man seemed to be smiling at Chen Yi, nodding as if to suggest he meant no harm,

But internally, he was resolved to kill Chen Yi if he dared to pass between the islands.
