Cultivating To Immortality

As expected, as Wan Haoran spoke, his tone suddenly shifted, and he asked.

"Fellow Daoist Fang, you are new to the Eastern Heaven Continent, so you probably don't have a place to settle down yet, do you? Why not join my Five Elements Sect and become a Grand Elder of my sect? I, Wan, particularly enjoy befriending powerful individuals from all over the world."

Fang Hong was already preparing to politely decline, but before he could speak, Wan Haoran's next words made his heart stir slightly.

"As long as Fellow Daoist Fang agrees to join my sect, from now on, all of my Five Elements Sect's inheritance cultivation techniques, core formations, divine transformation realm rare pill formulas, and so on, can be shared with Fellow Daoist without any reservations."

These words were not only sincere but also extremely tempting. Hearing them, Fang Hong's heart couldn't help but ripple.

Especially when he heard the words divine transformation realm pill formulas, a hint of fervor flashed in his eyes.

Since Fang Hong advanced to Divine Transformation, ordinary spirit pills and spirit stones have had little effect on his cultivation improvement, providing almost no substantial help.

To rapidly improve his cultivation as before, he must rely on higher-grade resources, such as feeding Divine Transformation level Demon Beasts to the demon gourd to refine Divine Transformation level Demon Beast spirit pills.

However, this creates a problem: Divine Transformation level Demon Beasts are not like weeds by the roadside.

According to Yun Tian and Wan Haoran's explanation, there are probably fewer than twenty Divine Transformation level Demon Beast Emperors in the entire Eastern Heaven Continent.

Therefore, Fang Hong cannot rely solely on refining medicinal pills with the demon gourd to improve his cultivation; he must broaden his methods of cultivation improvement.

And among them, the most direct and effective method is to refine Divine Transformation realm medicinal pills.

Fang Hong currently possesses many thousand-year spirit medicines, all precious items accumulated in Evergreen Blessed Herb Garden and the Dragon Palace Secret Realm, but he lacks Divine Transformation level pill formulas.

Without the corresponding pill formulas, even with spirit medicines, he cannot refine good medicinal pills suitable for his current realm, which means those valuable materials can only remain idle.

Since the Five Elements Sect possesses Divine Transformation level pill formulas, this gives him new hope.

If he could use the sect's pill formulas to refine Divine Transformation level medicinal pills, those long-accumulated Medicinal materials might finally be put to use.

Seeing Fang Hong's interest, Wan Haoran seemed to recall something and continued, "Since Fellow Daoist Fang has come to this Continent to explore, you surely wouldn't want to miss that place, would you?"

"That place? Fellow Daoist Wan, where are you referring to?" Fang Hong frowned slightly, showing a puzzled expression.

"It's an Ancient Cultivation Small World, one of the most renowned Secret Realms in the entire Heaven Domain, which opens only once every thousand years."

"Coincidentally, Fellow Daoist Fang, you've arrived at just the right time. That Ancient Cultivation Small World will reappear in the world in another year," Wan Haoran explained simply.

"A Secret Realm? It only reappears once every thousand years. Are there any opportunities within that Secret Realm?" Fang Hong immediately became interested upon hearing this.

"According to our research, that Small World should be an Immortal Cave opened by an ancient Mahayana cultivator. That powerful individual might have Ascended, causing the Immortal Cave's restriction to weaken, which is why it has appeared in the world."

"There are vast quantities of thousand-year spirit medicines, artifact refining materials, ancient beasts, and so on, and in the central area, there is also a palace left by that powerful individual. As long as one has the ability to enter the palace, they can obtain the inheritance within." Wan Haoran explained, with a hint of temptation.

Indeed, Fang Hong was truly attracted by his words.

Rare spirit medicines? Artifact refining materials? Ancient Beasts?

What he needed most right now were precisely these treasures that could enhance his cultivation and strength, weren't they?

"Hehe, the location of that Small World is jointly controlled by my Five Elements Sect, Shenwu Sect, and the Corpse Ghost sect, the three major sects. Only those who are members of a sect are allowed to enter," Wan Haoran smiled slightly and added.

"Good. Fellow Daoist Wan, I appreciate your earnest invitation. I am willing to join the Five Elements Sect and work together with you for a great cause."

This time, Fang Hong did not hesitate and directly agreed.

As one of the three major sects of the continent, the Five Elements Sect has a profound foundation and immense influence.

Becoming a Grand Elder of the sect allows one to acquire resources through the sect's power, have an identity locally, and makes it convenient to conduct business outside, killing many birds with one stone.

"Hahahaha, good, good, good. With Fellow Daoist Fang's addition, my Five Elements Sect has gained another pillar of strength."

Hearing Fang Hong agree, Wan Haoran's Face immediately showed great joy.

The addition of a Divine Transformation cultivator to the sect is a huge boost to its strength, so he was naturally very happy.

"Let's go, younger brother Fang, I'll take you on a tour of the sect." Wan Haoran stood up, in a good mood.

Subsequently, Fang Hong followed Wan Haoran out of the teahouse and flew towards the mountain ranges at the end of Five Elements City.

As expected, just as Fang Hong had previously guessed, the palaces and pavilions nestled among the mountains were the true location of the Five Elements Sect's main gate.

The sect's grounds presented a magnificent sight.

As the strongest Old Ancestor of the sect, Wan Haoran personally giving Fang Hong a tour of the sect showed great Face.

Along the way, Fang Hong gradually gained a better understanding of the Five Elements Sect's overall layout and internal structure.

After a while, Wan Haoran even pointed to a tall mountain peak and gifted it to Fang Hong as his cultivation Immortal Cave.

The mountain peak already had complete palaces and pavilions, with an excellent environment and abundant Heaven and Earth Origin Qi, so Fang Hong didn't need to excavate it himself.

Afterward, Wan Haoran took Fang Hong to meet some of the Elders within the sect, and they all got to know each other.

Only then did Fang Hong learn that the Five Elements Sect only had two Divine Transformation cultivators: one was Wan Haoran, and the other was named Li Qing.

Li Qing also appeared to be middle-aged, but his cultivation was slightly lower than Wan Haoran's, only at the Divine Transformation Early Stage, the same realm as Fang Hong.

The three chatted in the pavilion and only bid farewell to each other an hour later.

At the time of parting, Wan Haoran kept his promise and gave Fang Hong a copied set of several important core inheritance items of the sect, such as high-grade formations, Divine Transformation level pill formulas, and core cultivation techniques.

Fang Hong returned to his new Immortal Cave and first meticulously inspected every corner.

Only after confirming that there were no hidden dangers left by anyone in the entire Immortal Cave did he feel slightly relieved.

Subsequently, he set up several layers of restrictions around the Immortal Cave, including defensive restrictions and aura-concealing restrictions, providing multiple safeguards.

After handling all of this, Fang Hong walked directly into a secret room at the deepest part of the Immortal Cave, preparing to begin a period of secluded Cultivation.

For now, the matter of going to the Eastern Domain to kill Demon Beasts and refine medicinal pills could be temporarily put aside. He would first see what valuable pill formulas the Five Elements Sect had internally.

Fang Hong sat cross-legged on a soft cushion and took out several jade slips from his storage bag.

These jade slips were precisely the sect's inheritance jade slips that Wan Haoran had just given him. After refining them, he could directly read all the information contained within.

Fang Hong formed hand seals, conjured several pure magical powers, and infused them into each jade slip.

As spiritual light emanated from the surface of the jade slips, Fang Hong slowly closed his eyes and began to refine them.

...

Time passed bit by bit, and about an hour later, Fang Hong finally opened his eyes.

His gaze was brighter and filled with joy, and an unconscious smile appeared on his face.

The sect inheritance of the Five Elements Sect had indeed not disappointed him.
