Chapter 124 Huangquan Inheritance
After putting away the alchemy furnace, Ji Chang thanked Hu Qingsong, and then the two began chatting again.
While chatting, Ji Chang asked Hu Qingsong about Si Shengcai's background.
Ji Chang didn't know much about Si Shengcai, he just knew that he was a foundation-building cultivator from the Si family in Bingzhou.
Bingzhou Sijia was located in the northwestern border of Zheng State and was not very famous in Zheng State.
However, Ji Chang is quite concerned about this Si Shengcai.
This is because the Huangquan Sect’s headquarters is located in the territory of Zhao State, northwest of Zheng State.
The Huangquan Sect is a major Nascent Soul Sect, and there are innumerable high-level inheritances in the sect. Not to mention the third-level inheritance that can be cultivated to the Core Forming Stage, there is even a fourth-level inheritance that can be cultivated to the Nascent Soul Stage.
The Si family is located on the border of Zheng and Zhao, so the connection between them and the Huangquan Sect is naturally much deeper than that of most of the immortal cultivation families in Zheng.
Sure enough, as Hu Qingsong told his story, Ji Chang gradually learned more information about the Si family.
"The Si family?" Hu Qingsong said thoughtfully.
"This family is indeed quite famous in the northwestern border of Zheng State. As far as I know, the ancestor of the Si family was once a disciple of the Huangquan Sect."
Upon hearing this, Ji Chang's eyes flashed with surprise: "Disciple of Huangquan Sect?"
Hu Qingsong nodded: "Hundreds of years ago, the ancestor of the Si family was a disciple of the Huangquan Sect. After failing to form a pill, he came to Zheng State and founded the Si family."
"The ancestor of the Si family had already reached the level of fake elixir in cultivation, and was well-known in the Zheng Kingdom's cultivation world."
"This also enabled the Si family to rapidly rise from an unknown small family to become a prominent family of immortal cultivators in the northwest of Zheng State in just less than a hundred years."
At this point, Hu Qingsong couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity that since the ancestor of the Si family passed away, the Si family has never had a cultivator who can cultivate to the false pill realm."
"Although the Si family still occupies a place in the world of immortal cultivation, it has become much more desolate than its former glory."
"Because of its remote location, it is even inferior to some emerging foundation-building families in the heart of Zheng State."
Speaking of this, Hu Qingsong's face showed a bit of complacency.
Their Hu family is exactly the emerging foundation-building family he mentioned.
After the two chatted for a few more minutes, Hu Qingsong stood up and said goodbye.
Ji Chang sent him out of the cave and watched his figure disappear into the distant sky.
Then, he turned around and went back to the cave, focusing his mind on the peeping Tao seed in his mind.
"The Si family?"
"From Huangquan Sect..."
"I wonder if this Si family has a Jindan inheritance."
An idea came to Ji Chang’s mind.
If it is true as Hu Qingsong said, that the ancestor of the Si family once tried to reach the Jindan stage, then the Si family probably has the Jindan inheritance in hand.
Even if there is no practice method for the Jindan stage, there should be a secret method to break through the Jindan stage.
And this is exactly what Ji Chang lacks.
Although the "Five Poison Fragments" that Ji Chang practiced was the inheritance of the Nascent Soul Sect, a major sect of the Gushen Sect.
But it is only a fragment, with only the cultivation method for the foundation-building period, and not even the breakthrough method for cultivating the Five Poison Golden Pill.
In addition to "The Fragments of the Five Poisons", during this period, Ji Chang also got a glimpse of the Hu family's martial arts inheritance and Zixuan Sanren's martial arts inheritance.
Zixuan Sanren's inheritance can only be cultivated to the late stage of foundation building at most, and he doesn't even have the method to solidify his magic power and cultivate a fake elixir.
It was far inferior to the "Five Poison Fragments". However, the technique he practiced was a rare formation technique, which contained many spells and secrets that amplified the power of the formation, which was quite interesting.
The Hu family is a foundation-building family, and there are many martial arts techniques passed down within the family. Ji Chang mastered several of the Hu family's martial arts techniques by spying.
However, except for one fire-based martial arts technique that can be cultivated to the false elixir realm, the other martial arts techniques inherited are worse than the other.
And according to Ji Chang's observation, that book of fire-based skills is much inferior to the "Five Poison Fragments".
Even if "Five Poisons Fragments" is just a fragment of "Five Poisons Sutra".
The reason why Ji Chang wanted to do the business of refining foundation-building pills was that he wanted to get in touch with more foundation-building cultivators through this business.
Maybe there will be a chance to inherit a better martial arts technique than "Five Poison Fragments".
There is even a third-level technique that can break through to the Jindan stage.
For example, the inheritance of the Si family.
As the peeping Tao seed floated and sank in the sea of Ji Chang's common sense, the scene around Si Shengcai appeared in Ji Chang's mind.
Because of the remote location and the long distance between the Si family and Baishuixian City, they have no property in the fairy city.
At this time, Si Shengcai was purchasing supplies and selling materials in Xiancheng.
Ji Chang guessed that the foundation-building pill that he asked him to refine should be one of the supplies he purchased on this trip.
When night fell, Si Sheng returned to the temporary cave he rented in the fairy city.
Traveling with him was another foundation-building cultivator. The two sat at the stone table and began to talk about what they had seen and heard today.
Among them, the topic of Ji Chang is inevitably involved.
"Uncle, what do you think of Han Lin?" the foundation-building cultivator couldn't help but ask.
Si Shengcai pondered for a moment and said, "It is much worse than Master Badan, but Master Badan no longer refines foundation-building pills for others."
"And according to Fellow Daoist Hu, Han Lin once refined two foundation-building pills in one furnace some time ago, which shows that he is quite confident in refining foundation-building pills."
The foundation-building monk breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and then the two of them discussed some other things.
Just when Ji Chang was about to exit his peeping state, his expression suddenly changed slightly.
I saw that the foundation-building monk actually took out a corpse from the storage bag.
The body had lost its life force but was well preserved, having obviously been carefully handled.
When Si Shengcai saw the body, his brows slightly frowned: “Baichuan, don’t get into trouble.”
Si Baichuan seemed nonchalant. He said excitedly, "Don't worry. This man is the robber who followed me when I left the black market today. No one will find him."
"But then again, this Baishuixian City is really a treasure land. There are so many foundation-building cultivators. It's much easier to find good materials for corpse refining than in our place."
After listening to Si Baichuan's explanation, Si Shengcai nodded slightly to show his understanding.
He knew very well that Si Baichuan had just made his initial advancement in foundation building, even though he had the help of the corpse refining left by his clan's predecessors.
However, compared to refining corpses left by predecessors, it is more fulfilling to refine corpses that one makes personally.
Therefore, Si Sheng spoke up and said, "Since you already have this corpse, make good use of this time to refine it into a refined corpse in the cave."
When Ji Changzai saw this scene, his heart moved slightly.
"It is indeed the inheritance of the Huangquan Sect. This Si family should follow the path of corpses."
