Cultivating To Immortality

Fang Hong's Swift Wind Wings gently flapped behind him as he hovered in mid-air, his gaze calmly fixed on the deep pit below.

The Silver Moon Monkey lay at the bottom of the pit, its eyes rolled back, its body in utter disarray, clearly having completely lost consciousness.

Fang Hong nodded in satisfaction; the power of a hundred Ben Lei Talismans was indeed formidable.

Not to mention this True Immortal fifth-layer Silver Moon Monkey, even a True Immortal tenth-layer Cultivator would likely have to avoid its edge and dare not face it head-on.

Immediately after, Fang Hong flipped his wrist, and a nirvana divine thunder sword plunged down, precisely piercing the Silver Moon Monkey's head.

The Silver Moon Monkey's body twitched once, then completely lost its breath.

Fang Hong then took out the demon soul banner, absorbed the Silver Moon Monkey's soul into it, and then used the demon gourd to collect the corpse, refining it into a True Immortal fifth-layer Immortal Pill.

After dealing with the Silver Moon Monkey's corpse, Fang Hong flew towards a nearby cave.

That was the Silver Moon Monkey's Immortal Cave, and he naturally wanted to search it to see if there were any other gains.

After a search, Fang Hong truly found an unexpected surprise!

An Immortal Peach Tree was actually planted inside the Silver Moon Monkey's Immortal Cave; these Immortal Peaches were even better than the Immortal Spirit Fruits he had consumed before.

Fang Hong's face immediately lit up with joy, and he promptly transplanted the Immortal Peach Tree into the years pearl, and plucked some roots, intending to cultivate an entire peach orchard.

In a few more days, he would be able to eat Immortal Peaches, and his cultivation would advance, which was just around the corner.

Besides the Immortal Peach Tree, there were also fifty thousand Immortal Stones in the Silver Moon Monkey's Immortal Cave, which was a decent income.

After plundering, Fang Hong left Silver Moon Mountain contentedly and headed for his next target—Blue Ice Lake.

Blue Ice Lake was the dwelling place of the Blue Ice Crocodile, and Fang Hong intended to take it as well.

Three days later, Fang Hong easily killed the Blue Ice Crocodile, extracting its soul and refining it into an Immortal Pill.

By then, the three formidable Demon Beast Kings of the Silver Moon Mountains had all been slain by Fang Hong.

As for the Demon Beasts below the True Immortal Realm in the mountains, they were already worthless to the current Fang Hong.

Unable to be refined into Immortal Pills, with weak souls that wouldn't greatly enhance the demon soul banner, Fang Hong naturally couldn't be bothered to expend effort searching for them.

For the next period, Fang Hong stayed in his Immortal Cave to cultivate, refining Immortal Pills, drawing talismans, and patiently waiting for the day the Immortal Peaches ripened.

Half a year later, when Fang Hong once again came to Medicine Valley, the sight before him filled his heart with joy.

The Immortal Peach Tree he had planted had finally bloomed and borne fruit.

The tree was already laden with golden Immortal Peaches, their fragrance overflowing; just a single breath of it invigorated one's mind and body, and the Immortal Qi within him subtly stirred.

These Immortal Peaches were all thousand-year-old treasures, far beyond ordinary Immortal Fruits.

Fang Hong picked all the Immortal Peaches, and after counting them, he had harvested a total of one thousand and eighty Immortal Peaches this time.

With the help of this batch of Immortal Peaches, his cultivation advancement was just around the corner.

After picking the Immortal Peaches, Fang Hong eagerly began his seclusion, refining the Immortal Peaches and fully dedicating himself to improving his cultivation.

Three months passed in a flash.

On this day, the secret chamber door finally opened, and Fang Hong slowly walked out.

During these three months, he had refined a total of six hundred Immortal Peaches, coupled with the two Immortal Pills obtained from slaying the Silver Moon Monkey and the Blue Ice Crocodile previously; with this dual assistance, his cultivation once again advanced by leaps and bounds.

At this moment, he had successfully opened seven Immortal Apertures within his body, each filled with Immortal Qi, marking his breakthrough to the True Immortal seventh-layer realm.

Feeling the surging Immortal Qi within his body, Fang Hong mused, indeed, relying on Immortal Pills and miraculous medicinal pills for cultivation advancement was much faster.

If he were to cultivate like ordinary Cultivators, merely sitting in meditation within an Immortal Cave, it would take an unknown amount of time to reach his current realm.

It was a pity that as his cultivation improved, the medicinal efficacy of the Immortal Peaches had lost its effect on him.

Otherwise, he truly wished to continue refining them, striving to break through several more realms in one go.

Fang Hong currently had no more Immortal Pills or miraculous medicinal pills, nor any usable Immortal Pill recipes, and staying in his Immortal Cave to sit in meditation and cultivate was not his cultivation habit.

Thus, Fang Hong left the Silver Moon Mountains, intending to head to the Eastern Luo Sect headquarters.

The Eastern Luo Sect was the largest sect in the Eastern Luo Immortal Domain, and it surely housed many profound Immortal cultivation techniques and rare Immortal Pill recipes.

He wondered if he could join the sect and find some profound Immortal cultivation techniques or Immortal Pill recipes to first perfect his cultivation technique, and then consider future cultivation issues.

Before long, Fang Hong arrived at Silver Moon City, near the Silver Moon Mountains, to see if there was a Teleportation Array there.

This was his first time entering a gathering place for human cultivators since his Ascension to the Immortal Realm, and he was inevitably a little curious.

As soon as he entered Silver Moon City, Fang Hong strolled along the street, his gaze taking in the surrounding sights.

The layout of the entire Silver Moon City was not much different from the large cities in the Lower Realm, with various houses and pavilions, upturned eaves, and an antique charm.

Pedestrians came and went, mostly cultivators dressed in Daoist robes, and many shops lined the streets.

The biggest difference here from the Lower Realm lay in the overall strength of the cultivators.

There were no mortals to be seen in Silver Moon City, only Cultivators.

Moreover, the lowest strength of these cultivators had reached the Divine Transformation realm, and even Mahayana Cultivators were ubiquitous here, like ordinary passersby.

Fang Hong even saw many True Immortal Cultivators walking on the street.

"As expected of the Immortal Realm, the prosperity of cultivation culture is indeed incomparable to the Lower Realm." Fang Hong secretly sighed.

In the Lower Realm, a Mahayana Cultivator was already the peak combat power of the cultivation world, revered by millions.

But upon reaching the Immortal Realm, Mahayana Cultivators seemed to have become like mortals, which was truly regrettable.

Fang Hong successively entered several roadside shops to see if he could find anything useful.

Most of the shops in Silver Moon City primarily sold medicinal pills and talismans.

This made sense, as it was adjacent to the Silver Moon Mountains, and many cultivators came here to slay Demon Beasts and gain experience, inevitably encountering danger and suffering serious injuries.

Purchasing some healing medicinal pills or defensive and offensive talismans was essential.

Fang Hong entered several talisman shops; he originally wanted to find some talisman for third-grade Immortal talismans.

However, he visited four or five talisman shops in a row, and not a single one sold third-grade Immortal talismans.

At most, they only displayed one or two second-grade Immortal talismans of decent quality, and even the talisman patterns were quite crude.

"It seems Silver Moon City is ultimately just a frontier town; to buy higher-grade Cultivation resources, I still need to go to those more prosperous big cities."

Fang Hong understood, then turned and left the talisman shop, heading towards the largest pharmacy in the city.

This pharmacy was named Immortal Plant Hall; as soon as he entered, a rich medicinal fragrance wafted over.

A young attendant in a green shirt, whose aura was at the Void Refining realm, immediately came forward and respectfully greeted him.

"Senior, are you looking to buy medicinal ingredients? What kind are you interested in? I will guide you right away."
