Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

Because the Foundation Establishment Pill Recipe is too precious.

In the Kunwu Realm, just like in the Huaxia Realm, no one has successfully established their foundation.

This has led to the current situation.

No matter how powerful one's cultivation is, it cannot suppress the desire in everyone's hearts.

However, this batch should be the last round.

They did not reveal their true faces.

It's because, before coming here, they already had the intention to bid on the recipe.

Unfortunately, they were suppressed by me with three Fusion Pills.

Xia Liu arrived in Thousand Mechanisms City just a few days ago.

And he had a discussion with Elder Guang.

In the end, Elder Guang reminded him that the seller of the Foundation Establishment Pill Recipe is a cultivator at the fourteenth level of Qi cultivation.

Being only at the fourteenth level of Qi cultivation, spirit stones might not be very appealing to him.

But keeping a useless recipe in hand is evidently futile.

Exchanging it for spirit stones is naturally good.

And Xia Liu directly offered him something irresistible.

Three Fusion Pills that help break through from the fourteenth to the fifteenth level of Qi cultivation.

Such a deal can almost be settled.

I've snatched a step ahead of these black-robed figures; how could they let me leave safely?

"We won't make things difficult for you either, exchanging a hundred thousand Supreme Grade Spirit Stones for the Foundation Establishment Pill Recipe, how about that?"

The leading black-robed figure said sternly.

"Oh, you are very sincere, so I'll take a step back too, a hundred thousand Supreme Grade Spirit Stones, but it can only purchase the copy I transcribed."

Xia Liu is not a villain; since they want to get it.

I'll do a good deed this time.

Without reaching the realm of a seventh-grade alchemist, it's impossible to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill.

What harm is there in sharing the recipe?

Xia Liu's reply rendered the black-robed figures silent.

After a long while, he said faintly, "Alright, but your condition is reversed; we will transcribe a copy for you."

"Heh, you won't even show your faces, and expect me to trust you?"

Xia Liu laughed coldly. If Elder Guang had said the same, he surely wouldn't refuse.

Because familiarity breeds trust.

This group of black-robed figures who suddenly appeared, Xia Liu had never interacted with them, so how could he hand over the recipe?

"So there's no negotiation, is that it?"

The black-robed figure's tone gradually turned cold, the killing intent somewhat concealed yet still leaked out.

"It's something I won through bidding; if you wish to seize it, then show me what you've got!"

Xia Liu's expression turned serious, his eyes becoming earnest under the black robe.

For he felt a pressure from these ten black-robed figures.

Something unprecedented.

Very eerie.

This proves that these ten people have extraordinary cultivation, I may not be their match!

Such a thought made Xia Liu's mind tremble slightly.

He seldom lacked confidence in himself.

This time, however, he hesitated.

It seems the upcoming encounter will be challenging.

"Then as you wish!"

The leading black-robed figure stepped back a few paces, along with his companions forming a row and locking Xia Liu within.

"Form the array!"

A murmuring voice dissipated, and the ten black-robed figures immediately moved.

They circled around Xia Liu a few times, then stood in specified positions.

"Interesting, seems the force behind you isn't simple!"

Xia Liu murmured, holding the Flowing Fire Sword and waiting for an opportunity.

Regarding this formation, he wasn't yet familiar, so he didn't rashly break through.

"Activate the array!"

The formation activated, revealing the ten black-robed figures raising purple flames in their hands.

"Oh? Playing with fire!"

Xia Liu instinctively observed these flames more closely.

If he guessed correctly, these should be Beast Fire.

A step below Heaven and Earth Strange Fire.

Yet with such a massive source of Beast Fire, it could contend with Heaven and Earth Strange Fire for some time.

To mobilize such a vast number of top fire manipulators, the forces within this realm that could be counted on one hand.

But Xia Liu was still unsure.

"What is the origin of these people, how can each of them control fire?"

"Strange indeed, are there top forces in the fire manipulating arts in the Southeast Region?"

"Even if there are in the Southeast Region, how can one foundation deploy such a vast number of top experts, and each one with similar auras!"

"The Southeast Region is truly hiding tigers and dragons, having such transcendent foundation."

...

Regarding these fire-playing black-robed figures, the onlookers sighed.

Perhaps only such seamless cooperation from top cultivators can contend against the mysterious power that destroyed the Beast Taming Sect.

"If you can break through my Purple Smoke Locking Spirit Array, you can take the recipe with you!"

"Heh, enough with the idle talk, activate the array to its utmost power!"

Regarding the Heavenly Gang Holy Fire he possessed, Xia Liu also wanted to test how powerful its limits truly were.

This Purple Smoke Locking Spirit Array, just happens to serve as proof!

"Then don't blame us for being ruthless!"

The black-robed figure's voice fell, the nine around immediately mobilizing inner spirit energy.

The purple fire burst forth from their hands.

In an instant, Xia Liu was encircled.

The surging flames gradually attacked Xia Liu.

The temperature within the array reached a terrifying state.

Xia Liu was certain that without the protection of the Heavenly Gang Holy Fire, he would be incinerated by the purple flames within mere breaths.

"Energy Depleted to Mystic Yellow!"

Without hesitation, he gathered force, unleashing his ultimate move.

Yet the outcome was!

The Great Handprint swiped out, immediately surrounded by purple flames, and in the blink of an eye, devoured completely.

Not sure if the purple fire has special effects.

After devouring the Great Handprint, the temperature even increased slightly.

"Now you still have a chance, just cease resistance, and we are willing to give you the copy."

"Heh, truly life-threatening, not even the hundred thousand Supreme Grade Spirit Stones are left."

"Now whether you can survive the array is still a problem, do you think you have the right to negotiate with me?"

The icy voice transmitted from outside the array brought Xia Liu an amused frustration.

Do these people believe an array of flames can trap me?

"Have you seen the ultimate flame?"

Uh uh uh...

As the black-robed figures were in doubt, suddenly a wisp of golden flame leapt from Xia Liu's palm.

"Hmm? Isn't that the fire attribute spirit sword's bonus attribute?"

Earlier they all saw Xia Liu display the golden flame.

They all thought it was an effect attached to the Flowing Fire Sword.

Unexpectedly, Xia Liu could yet summon the golden flame!

And on the golden flame, they could all sense a special power.

As if a king of flames, even Heaven and Earth Strange Fire must bow to it.

Before the black-robed figures could be shocked, Xia Liu invoked the Refining Immortal Formula within him.

In an instant, the Heavenly Gang Holy Fire burned fiercely.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!

Once the Heavenly Gang Holy Fire emerged, the purple flames confining Xia Liu seemed fearful, emitting melodious sounds while ascending.

"Damn it!"

"Everyone, push the purple fire to the extreme!"

The leading black-robed figure shouted loudly.

Then the pervasive purple flames regained their fierce demeanor.

No longer engaging with Xia Liu, the domineering purple flames closed in on him.

The posture was as if to swallow Xia Liu whole…
