Chapter 159: The Efficacious Medicine Succeeds in Obtaining

In order to win over the support of friendly forces like Green Bamboo Mountain, approximately every hundred years or so when the Flying Swan Sect's Foundation Building Pill becomes slightly abundant, Green Bamboo Mountain can exchange for one. In this past century, Green Bamboo Mountain has already made such an exchange once.

Among the several Foundation Building cultivators of Green Bamboo Mountain, the youngest have already surpassed a hundred years of age. The opening of the Mirage Secret Realm also occurs approximately every hundred years. The theoretical maximum lifespan of a Foundation Building cultivator is four cycles of the ten Heavenly Stems, which is two hundred and forty years. However, in reality, most Foundation Building cultivators in the Endless Sea of Sand do not live beyond two hundred years.

This means that if they cannot obtain Foundation Building Pills from the Flying Swan Sect through other means, Green Bamboo Mountain's Foundation Building cultivators are likely to face a break in the succession. Flying Swan Sect is not a charitable organization, and even they do not have an abundance of Foundation Building Pills. There are numerous Refining Qi completion cultivators in Flying Swan Sect, and they are patiently waiting in line to receive their Foundation Building Pills. Without sufficient benefits or reasons, Flying Swan Sect will not easily release extra Foundation Building Pills.

In other words, Green Bamboo Mountain either has to desperately gather spiritual items that can impress Flying Swan Sect to exchange for extra Foundation Building Pills or pray every day, hoping that talented disciples who do not need Foundation Building Pills will appear naturally.

Otherwise, Green Bamboo Mountain may fall into a difficult situation where they lack Foundation Building cultivators after a hundred years, and without the protection of Foundation Building cultivators, the once prosperous and mighty Green Bamboo Mountain would not be able to hold onto their ancestral legacy, let alone maintain their own inheritance.

Meng Zhang's proactive attack has put Green Bamboo Mountain in a crisis of discontinuation of their legacy. Compared to the survival of the sect, the grudges between Taiyi Sect and Green Bamboo Mountain are insignificant and not worth mentioning. Green Bamboo Mountain, with its hands full dealing with its own situation, has no spare energy to deal with Taiyi Sect.The origin of this chapter's debut can be traced to N0v3l--B1n.

On one hand, Green Bamboo Mountain is doing its best to investigate the true culprit behind the ambush of their disciples and trying every possible means to recover the stolen spiritual medicines. On the other hand, Green Bamboo Mountain must strive to obtain extra Foundation Building Pills from the Flying Swan Sect.

Meng Zhang's actions were not perfect, but they left no obvious evidence nor any trace to be followed. Even if Green Bamboo Mountain had thought of Taiyi Sect, the most powerful cultivator publicly known in Taiyi Sect is Meng Zhang at the Refining Qi Ninth Layer. Even the Refining Qi completion-level Deep Earth Spirit General rarely appears in front of outsiders. Deploying two Foundation Building cultivators is something Taiyi Sect could never achieve. Furthermore, the black market has explicitly stated that they did not assist Meng Zhang.

Foundation Building cultivators are not easy to find in this region, and all of them have their names and identities known. Green Bamboo Mountain is currently conducting a meticulous investigation of all known Foundation Building cultivators in the surrounding areas, hoping to find some clues.

After Meng Zhang handed over these spiritual medicines to Shi Weiming, he inquired about when he could receive the promised Foundation Building Pill. At this point, Shi Weiming became evasive.

Meng Zhang activated Mind Reading and carefully read his mind while Shi Weiming's thoughts were unstable. The information he obtained nearly infuriated Meng Zhang.

It turned out that Shi Weiming was just an empty promise. The wild Alchemist behind him had not collected all the necessary spiritual medicines for refining Foundation Building Pills, nor did he have prior experience in refining them.

Meng Zhang realized that he had been deceived by Shi Weiming this time. However, the situation had come to this point, and he couldn't go back on his word.

The only fortunate thing was that Shi Weiming still intended to honor his promise. He assured Meng Zhang that once the Foundation Building Pill was successfully refined, he would prioritize supplying it to him. With the spiritual medicines Meng Zhang provided, most of the ingredients needed for refining Foundation Building Pills had already been collected. The remaining portion was also being collected by Shi Weiming. He had blind confidence in the Alchemist behind him, firmly believing that he would successfully refine the Foundation Building Pill.

In the matter of refining the Foundation Building Pill, Shi Weiming was more urgent and focused than Meng Zhang. Although he did not immediately provide the promised Foundation Building Pill, he did pay Meng Zhang the additional spirit stones as promised.

Meng Zhang reminded himself not to trust these people too much. Many years of trade relationships didn't necessarily warrant complete trust.

Of course, at least for now, they were still allies on the same boat, each having their own needs from the other. Shi Weiming knew about Meng Zhang's ambush on Green Bamboo Mountain, but having accepted Meng Zhang's spiritual medicines, they were more eager to keep this secret. If the secret were exposed to Green Bamboo Mountain, reclaiming the spiritual medicines needed to refine Foundation Building Pills would become Green Bamboo Mountain's top priority instead of seeking revenge against Taiyi Sect.
