Chapter 49: Chapter 49 Qi Jingtian_i

Li Cheng raised his eyebrows, this guy, was he trying to push his luck?

Still delusional about proposing two conditions, dream on!

Not to mention whether he would turn two into three like myself, he had no right to propose any in the first place!

The elder’s expression turned awkward, and he felt helpless inside. He knew that Li Cheng had the strength to kill him, but he had to propose these two conditions no matter what!

With this thought in mind, the elder gritted his teeth and resolutely said, “Wan Zhongshan has been severely injured by you and needs an Emperor Grade Responding to Calamity Pill, counting as one condition. The second is to keep our previous battle a secret!”

As he spoke, the elder took out a storage ring, “Here are the Immortal Infants of eight Heavenly Immortals and ten thousand Immortal Stones, my entire fortune. If you agree, 1 will swear right away.”

Li Cheng was surprised in his heart, eight Heavenly Immortals’ Immortal Infants?

This guy, before descending to the Lower World, had he specifically killed eight Heavenly Immortals?

And ten thousand Immortal Stones, that’s a big number too, after all, even the Heavenly Mechanism Sect only has a hundred.

In contrast, the elder’s conditions were as good as none!

An Emperor Grade Responding to Calamity Pill, 1 still have some, not caring for more.

And as for keeping our previous fight a secret, this guy probably also felt that the spitting incident was unbecoming of his status and didn’t want it to get out.

Conveniently, 1 wouldn’t want the fact that he bluffed me with a falsely reported cultivation to get out either.

With this thought, Li Cheng took the storage ring, “Alright, it’s a deal!”

The elder was overjoyed, “I, Feng Wanli, swear by the Heavenly Dao that I will never do anything to harm Li Cheng or the Heavenly Mechanism Sect in the future!”

After taking the oath, Feng Wanli heaved a long sigh of relief, “We really did not get to know each other until we fought. Brother Li Cheng, there are no grudges between us now!”

Li Cheng casually tossed over an Emperor Grade Responding to Calamity Pill, “You people of the Taoist Mysterious Sect are so full of yourselves, I’m not fit to call you brother. It’s better for you to just address me by my name.”

Feng Wanli’s face was covered in embarrassment as he coughed dryly, “Don’t worry, after 1 go out, 1’11 immediately take care of those bastards, and let them know why the flowers are so red!”

Li Cheng glanced at Feng Wanli and started to check the storage ring.

The souls of those eight Immortal Infants had already been erased, leaving only the pure Immortal Yuan. Presumably, Feng Wanli used them as Immortal Elixirs to recover his Immortal Yuan.

Taking out one, Li Cheng tossed it into the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod. “Alchemy with an Immortal Infant?” Feng Wanli asked curiously.

In the Immortal World, he had seen the use of Immortal Infants for alchemy, but this was the Lower World, were there people at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage capable of refining Immortal Infants?

Li Cheng glanced at Feng Wanli again, “Aren’t you curious what’s on top of those pillars?”

Feng Wanli understood, Li Cheng was hinting that he was being a disturbance, so he reluctantly went to check the pillars.

Li Cheng memorized the Immortal Spirit Step on the pillars and turned to look. He didn’t know what Feng Wanli found on one of the pillars, but he was intently observing it.

Without disturbing him, Li Cheng shifted his gaze to the spot the green arrow had pointed to before, only to see that the arrow had moved to the entrance of the grand hall.

Li Cheng was inwardly amazed; no matter how hard he tried, he could not detect anyone below the arrow!

This ability to hide was simply too strong!

If not for the system prompting that this was a disciple meeting the recruitment criteria, Li Cheng would have suspected this was an unsurpassed great expert.

Otherwise, how could anyone hide so perfectly right under his nose?

After all, even Immortals would find it hard to conceal themselves under his Spiritual Sense.

Li Cheng moved in front of the arrow, wanting to scrutinize it closely to see if he could discover any clues, but the arrow began to move left and right.

Li Cheng’s gaze followed the arrow’s movement, growing more curious, as the person was moving, yet he still couldn’t sense anything!

“You can actually see me? That’s impossible!” an immature voice rang out, filled with thick astonishment.

See what? 1 can’t see a ghost, let alone ghosts!

Li Cheng complained in his mind, but still nodded, “Please reveal yourself!”

The next moment, a three-meter-tall youth appeared before his eyes!

Li Cheng looked up, a trace of surprise flitted through his eyes, a strong figure… this might not be a human!

The youth had a bronze complexion and appeared to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, his resolute face mixed with a hint of naivety, and his sharp eyes were filled with wariness.

His body towered at three meters tall, and most importantly, with a back like a tiger’s and a waist like a bear’s, and muscles like coiling dragons, moving like a steel tower, as if he possessed the Power of Pioneering Land.

Upon sensing his cultivation, it was merely at the Golden Core Stage!

“Golden Core Stage cultivation, yet possessing a physical strength and resilience not inferior to mine, how eerie!”

“Could it be some special lineage?”

Li Cheng thought to himself, but after having perused all the tomes of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, he found no record of such a bizarre lineage.

“Who are you? Why can you see me?” The youth also sized up Li Cheng, asking. “My name is Li Cheng, and 1 can see you because of a certain special ability.” The youth pondered and nodded, “My name is Qi Jingtian.”

Qi Jingtian?

Feng Wanli mentioned that the master of the Astonished God Palace was Qi Jingshen, what relation did he have with the youth before me?

“Who is Qi Jingshen to you?”

“Who is Qi Jingshen?” Qi Jingtian countered.

Li Cheng was puzzled, one Qi Jingtian, one Qi Jingshen, no relation?

Shaking his head, Li Cheng said with a smile, “Just some random musings, nothing important. How long have you been here?”

Qi Jingtian shook his head, “I don’t know, but it’s been a very long time.”

Li Cheng was speechless; this fellow gave off the impression of being strong and simple-minded, but what exactly was his background?

“So what do you usually do here?”

Without a second thought, Qi Jingtian answered, “Sleeping!”

“And when you’re awake?”

Qi Jingtian revealed a contemplative expression, slowly saying, “When I’m awake… 1 just wander around inside my body, and after looking around, 1 go back to sleep. It seems that’s all 1 do.”

Internal viewing?

Li Cheng felt it unlikely that he would get any useful information, seeing that this fellow’s mind was indeed quite simple.

However, given his simplicity, why not try to take him as a disciple?

One more disciple, who knows how many more moments of enlightenment that would bring. Encountering him surely meant he must find a way to take him on!

With this thought, a smile appeared on Li Cheng’s face, “If you’ve got nothing else to do, would you like to learn Alchemy? Or Formation? 1 can teach you.” Qi Jingtian’s eyes lit up, “1 can learn Formation? Once I become a powerful Array Master, 1 can break the array outside and leave this place!”

Li Cheng’s brow slightly raised; it seemed much easier than he had anticipated! “Of course, you can. But you should understand that if you want me to teach you everything I know, you must take me as your master,” Li Cheng said with a smile.

Qi Jingtian didn’t hesitate, “1 understand. I’ve been planning this for a long time. I intended to find a powerful Array Master to learn from!”

“That’s why 1 specifically took some Array Pattern Stones from the outside formation and threw them out, hoping they would attract a powerful Array Master.”

“Anyone who could decode the Array Patterns on the stones would definitely meet my criteria as a master, and now it’s really happened!”

Li Cheng was astonished; was the Array Pattern Stone circulated by Qi Jingtian himself?

But initially, it must’ve ended up in the hands of someone who didn’t know its value, as it was used to build a cooking stove.

Wait, something doesn’t add up?

All of a sudden, Li Cheng sensed something amiss. If Qi Jingtian used the Array Pattern Stone to find a master, then what about the Immortal Stone within it that carried a map?

According to previous speculation, it was the transformation of the Immortal Stone that created the Array Pattern Stone, yet the map on the Immortal Stone was man-made!

Now it seemed, someone had already engraved a map on the Immortal Stone and thrown it into the Natural Array, from which the Array Pattern Stone was formed.

Afterwards, Qi Jingtian found the Array Pattern Stone and tossed it outside! That is to say, someone was secretly laying the groundwork for Qi Jingtian! The formation of the Array Pattern Stone, at the least, would require tens of thousands of years. Hence, that person had started laying the groundwork tens of thousands of years ago!

Could it be that Qi Jingtian was already here at that time?

As he pondered, a deep astonishment arose in Li Cheng’s eyes as he considered a shocking possibility!
