Chapter 310: Leaving with Ease
When the third wave of people entered the Dan Dao Formation Disk derived from the Cosmic Dimension Matrix, Lan Xiaobu selected a Great Yi Immortal cultivator named Tu Yunshan.
Tu Yunshan wasn’t an alchemist but had come to trade with him, bringing a rare Deep Sea Flying Source Coral.
Lan Xiaobu promised to refine a batch of Rootless Snow Mist Pills for him in the future and even gave him an Ultimate Radiance Pill.
In truth, the value of the Ultimate Radiance Pill alone was enough to compensate for the Deep Sea Flying Source Coral.
However, Tu Yunshan had come specifically for the Rootless Snow Mist Pills.
As long as Tu Yunshan provided the materials for two batches of the pills, Lan Xiaobu would refine one batch for him.
Lan Xiaobu chose Tu Yunshan because his cultivation level was relatively weak, making it easy for Lan Xiaobu to knock him out.
Like the other alchemists, Tu Yunshan entered the Dan Dao Enlightenment Formation Disk.
Although he didn’t understand alchemy, he was curious about what insights he might gain from the formation disk.
As soon as Tu Yunshan entered the formation disk, he felt as though he had become a third-grade immortal alchemist, just one step away from advancing to the fourth-grade Great Immortal Alchemist level.
Overjoyed, he threw himself into the struggle to break through to the fourth grade.
The illusion array set up by an eighth-grade Immortal Array Master was so powerful that even if Tu Yunshan were an Immortal King or even an Immortal Venerable, he would still fall for it.
In this illusion, Lan Xiaobu easily ambushed him.
At this moment, everyone was engrossed in their own alchemy enlightenment, paying no attention to their surroundings.
Even if someone were to notice, within Lan Xiaobu’s array, they wouldn’t be able to tell that he had knocked someone out.
After the time it took to burn an incense stick, the last ten people were teleported out in a state of excitement, all of them still yearning for more.
They knew better than to disturb Alchemist Lan at this point.
The previous two groups had left after bowing respectfully to Lan Xiaobu’s cave, so they did the same, bowing to Lan Xiaobu’s room before leaving the Xiaoqian Immortal Rest Pavilion.
For them, the most important thing now was to return and start refining pills, applying what they had learned to see how much their alchemy had improved.
Inside and outside the Xiaoqian Immortal Rest Pavilion, dozens of divine senses swept back and forth, lingering on them for a moment before moving on.
...
Disguised as Tu Yunshan, Lan Xiaobu walked out of the Xiaoqian Immortal Rest Pavilion with the others, chatting and laughing.
He even took his time strolling around Xingdao Immortal City before finally arriving at the city gates.
As soon as he reached the gates, several powerful divine senses locked onto him.
Lan Xiaobu was inwardly alarmed—this was much stricter than the checks when leaving the Xiaoqian Immortal Rest Pavilion.
If he had been using a simple disguise instead of the Heavenly Pivot Transformation’s shape-shifting ability, he would have been exposed immediately.
The Heavenly Pivot Transformation’s胎易化形 (胎易化形) ability truly lived up to its reputation as a top-tier divine ability.
The divine senses detected nothing unusual, and Lan Xiaobu calmly left Mo Xuan Xingdao Immortal City.
After traveling hundreds of thousands of miles away from the city, Lan Xiaobu tossed Tu Yunshan, who was still trapped in the illusion array, out of the Cosmic Dimension Matrix and then left.
It took Tu Yunshan about the time it takes to burn an incense stick to wake up.
He looked around in confusion at the wilderness, wondering how he had ended up there.
Wasn’t he supposed to be in Alchemist Lan Xiaobu’s cave in the Xiaoqian Immortal Rest Pavilion, gaining insights into alchemy?
Wait, no—he had been gaining insights, but he wasn’t an alchemist.
He had felt like he was on the verge of becoming a fourth-grade Great Immortal Alchemist.
After leaving the Xiaoqian Immortal Rest Pavilion, he had rushed out of the city to search for fourth-grade immortal herbs to refine pills and advance his alchemy.
At this thought, Tu Yunshan slapped his forehead.
He knew nothing about alchemy—what was he thinking, searching for fourth-grade immortal herbs? How absurd!
But this also showed how powerful that Dan Dao Formation Disk was.
If he had truly been a third-grade immortal alchemist, could he have advanced to the fourth grade?
Still, something wasn’t right.
He wasn’t an alchemist, so why had he only come to his senses after leaving the city?
Tu Yunshan shuddered, unwilling to dwell on it further.
He quickly changed direction and sped away.
Whatever had happened, it was best to leave for now.
Mo Xuan Xingdao Immortal City was not a place he wanted to return to anytime soon.
The whole situation felt eerie, and he couldn’t shake the feeling that Alchemist Lan Xiaobu was far more complicated than he appeared.
...
Lan Xiaobu hurried to the Black Pottery Forest Range.
For him, the escape wasn’t over—it was only halfway done.
If people found out he had escaped on his own, he wouldn’t have gone through all this trouble.
After entering the Black Pottery Forest Range, Lan Xiaobu didn’t dare venture too deep.
With his current strength, he could easily be killed in this dangerous area.
He began setting up a teleportation array—a one-way teleportation array that could send items millions of miles deeper into the Black Pottery Forest Range.
As an eighth-grade Immortal Array Master, he was capable of setting up such an array.
Millions of miles might not seem like much in ordinary places, where a Great Immortal could cover that distance in a short time.
But in the Black Pottery Forest Range, every mile deeper increased the danger exponentially.
At such depths, there were already top-tier demonic beasts lurking.
Although setting up this teleportation array consumed a significant amount of his top-tier materials, Lan Xiaobu didn’t mind. ...
In the Mo Xuan Immortal Domain’s city lord’s mansion, Liu Ming and Sang Buxia, the Immortal Court King of Moon Mirror Immortal Court, were speaking with a man in black.
Aside from them, there was also an Immortal Emperor wearing a high crown sitting in the corner, who had remained silent the entire time.
A message landed on the communication bead on Liu Ming’s wrist.
After glancing at it, Liu Ming said, “Senior, Lan Xiaobu has finished receiving guests and is now resting. He met with a total of thirty-three people—twenty alchemists and twelve who came to trade immortal herbs with him. He also refused entry to Teng Man’er and her two subordinates, scolding them for their rudeness and telling them to leave.”
Sang Buxia clasped his fists and said, “Senior, should we go and bring him here now? Although we’ve set up monitoring arrays outside the Xiaoqian Immortal Rest Pavilion and have top-tier treasures suppressing the area, I’ve heard from the Zhi family that this Lan Xiaobu is not to be underestimated.”
The man in black smiled faintly. “I know what you’re worried about. Unless it’s a True Spirit World, even if other cultivators tried to take Lan Xiaobu away using a small world, it would be impossible. As soon as they tried to use a world to transport someone, the Life Detection Disk would sound an alarm. As for the True Spirit World on his person, it hasn’t been activated yet. With Lan Xiaobu’s cultivation level, it would take him at least a year or two to refine it. Even for you, refining a True Spirit World would take some time, let alone a Great Zhi Immortal like him.“Moreover, as soon as he starts refining the True Spirit World, I’ll know.
What Buxia said is also correct—the longer we wait, the more complications may arise.
After all, many things are on this person, things that even I cannot afford to lose.
It’s better to bring him here now.
But do so discreetly—don’t alert anyone.”Liu Ming hesitated for a moment before saying,“Senior, Lan Xiaobu is an alchemist of the Ascendant Star Immortal Court and has also created the Rootless Snow Mist Pill.
If he suddenly disappears, wouldn’t that…”The man in black coldly glared at Liu Ming.“Wouldn’t what?”Liu Ming shuddered and didn’t dare say anything more. ... Meanwhile, after finishing the teleportation array, Lan Xiaobu quickly retrieved the Divine Sense Marked Wood from the Cosmic Dimension Matrix and placed it into the teleportation array disk. The array activated, and the wood, carrying numerous divine sense marks, was instantly teleported away. As soon as the item was teleported, Lan Xiaobu collected all the array flags and quickly left. His next destination was the Black Bone Swamp, and he wouldn’t be coming out anytime soon. Almost at the same time Lan Xiaobu took out the Divine Sense Marked Wood, the man in black in the city lord’s mansion suddenly stood up, his expression grim.“Lan Xiaobu has fled to the Black Pottery Forest Range.
I’m heading there now.
You two, go check his residence and investigate the thirty or so people who discussed alchemy with him…”
Before he even finished speaking, the man in black had already vanished.
At the same time, dozens of people felt their divine sense marks suddenly appear in the Black Pottery Forest Range.
Without hesitation, they all rushed toward the area.
Lan Xiaobu had just entered the Black Bone Swamp when he sensed that the void array he had set up had been triggered.
He was inwardly alarmed.
According to the jade slip Cheng Yinyao had given him, he had already found the entrance to the Black Bone Swamp before setting up the teleportation array.
Even so, by the time he reached the swamp’s entrance, someone had already arrived at the location of his one-way teleportation array.
It was certain that the person had come from Mo Xuan Xingdao Immortal City.
To cover nearly 1.5 million miles so quickly, this person’s strength must be beyond that of an Immortal Emperor, right?
That was close.
It seemed this operation wasn’t as foolproof as he had thought.
Lan Xiaobu reminded himself to be more careful in the future—he couldn’t afford to be so careless again.
The man in black sensed people approaching the outskirts of his divine sense range and sneered inwardly.
These people were clearly after the first-place prize from the alchemy competition.
How bold of them.
But his focus wasn’t on them.
His gaze was fixed on the depths of the Black Pottery Forest Range.
At this moment, he could feel that his divine sense mark had been stripped away and was now stationary in a certain part of the forest.
Wait—the mark was dissipating.
It seemed someone was trying to peel it away and destroy it.
The man in black didn’t waste another moment.
With a flash, he transformed into a streak of light and charged into the depths of the Black Pottery Forest Range.
Several figures arrived at the same time, watching the man in black disappear into the forest.
They couldn’t help but feel a chill—the aura he exuded was clearly beyond that of an Immortal Emperor.
And as for the deeper parts of the Black Pottery Forest Range, who in the Mo Xuan Immortal Domain would dare venture there? Rumors said that tenth-grade immortal demonic beasts lurked within—beasts that surpassed even Immortal Emperors in power.
(That’s all for today’s update.
Goodnight, friends!)
