Chapter 124 Alchemist Wang Who Sings Loudly
Before long, the group of female cultivators gradually stopped playing music.
Fellow Daoist Wang's face showed a slight expression of joy, and he smiled, saying, "Fellow Daoists, who will sing first?"
Lu Yu and the other fellow cultivators looked at each other.
Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper, without hesitation, said, "I'll go first."
Then he stood up, imitating Master Wang, lifted the veil of a female cultivator, and sang out loud.
His singing was decent, but his slightly chubby dance moves seemed somewhat out of place.
While singing and dancing, he also had a bit of Master Wang's charm.
After the shopkeeper finished singing, he waved his sleeve robe and boldly said, "Continue with the music, continue with the dance."
Then, the other cultivators took turns singing.
Until a female cultivator at the door urged them to leave.
Master Wang smiled and bid farewell to the shopkeeper, then he looked at Lu Yu with some regret.
"Unfortunately, I didn't get to hear a song from this new Fellow Daoist."
Lu Yu smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm new here and not familiar with music. I'm afraid it would be a disservice to the senior's ears. Maybe next time."
Before long.
The shopkeeper led Lu Yu and the other cultivators out of the private room.
"The hobbies and methods of trading pills of Master Wang have truly broadened my horizons."
One of the fellow cultivators said with emotion, and Lu Yu noticed that he seemed somewhat unsatisfied.
Moreover, the special price for purchasing pills was indeed quite special.
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Alchemists who refine pills often feel frustrated."
"So, that's why Master Wang has this preference. Whenever pills are successfully refined, he always has a way to relax."
"Perhaps it is this relaxation that allows him to tirelessly pursue the path of alchemy."
After saying that, the shopkeeper looked meaningfully at Lu Yu and said with a smile, "As an alchemist and a pill refiner, Fellow Daoist Lu must understand the boredom and monotony involved."
"I have also heard that Fellow Daoist Lu has multiple wives, so I am quite curious about how Fellow Daoist Lu spends his leisure time to alleviate boredom."
Lu Yu blushed slightly and clasped his hands, saying, "Shopkeeper, you're joking."
"I am only accompanied by my wives on the long road of cultivation."
The shopkeeper smiled, his deep meaning unchanged, and said, "Well, this is a secret of the inner chambers, and I naturally have no reason to pry."
"This is the Qidan Hall, and other alchemists also have their own special preferences."
"If Fellow Daoist Lu has any needs in the future, I will inform you."
"In that case, thank you, shopkeeper." Lu Yu showed a happy expression and bowed.
Master Wang's singing was not a frustrating experience.
Moreover, the pills that could assist in dual cultivation were extremely important to him.
To be able to obtain them so easily, he was already satisfied.
Even if he was asked to sing a song, he would be willing.
"I wonder how many pills Master Wang produces?"
"Two batches of pills every six months."
"If Fellow Daoist Lu has a need for dual cultivation pills, you can come here often with me."
"This Golden Consort Transformation Pill is a high-grade dual cultivation elixir, mainly made from the Golden Consort Mei Qi fruit, supplemented with many precious medicinal materials. It refines the essence and removes impurities, making it more effective than just the fruit alone."
"However, it is still too early for Fellow Daoist's cultivation level to take it."
"This elixir can only fully exert its effects for cultivators at the Foundation Building stage."
"It is truly miraculous for cultivation advancement."
"In the future, you can learn more performing arts. Who knows, you might be able to buy more Golden Consort Transformation Pills."
After bidding farewell to the shopkeeper, Lu Yu felt a sense of joy in his heart.
He was not proficient in performing arts, and he had little exposure to them.
But if he was willing to put in the effort, it shouldn't be too difficult.
After all, cultivators have far greater control over their muscles than ordinary people, and singing is just a matter of controlling the force in the throat.
Returned to the Lan Ya Mansion.
Wives and concubines gathered on the second floor, chatting and laughing.
When there was movement in the teleportation array in the courtyard, Ling'er's face lit up with joy as she went downstairs to welcome Lu Yu and bring him to the second floor.
Ling'er's delicate nose twitched slightly, and after taking a few short sniffs, she teasingly said, "Darling, you smell heavily of cosmetics."
"I suppose all the beautiful female cultivators I interacted with today were at the Yixian Courtyard."
The Yixian Courtyard had quite a reputation in the Broken Cloud City. The female cultivators inside were all stunning and skilled in music. It was a good place for male cultivators to listen to music.
Moreover, the Yixian Courtyard was a brothel that specialized in catering to male cultivators. Unlike the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion on the Holy Spirit Mountain, which was a brothel in name but secretly used enchantment techniques to capture disciples for alchemy.
Lu Yu scratched Ling'er's delicate nose and smiled, "Ling'er, what do you take me for?"
"I went out specifically to buy medicinal pills."
With that, the three of them went upstairs.
A table filled with fragrant dishes caught Lu Yu's eye.
After sitting down with his wives and concubines, Lu Yu began to eat heartily.
During the meal, the wives and concubines teased each other, creating a lively atmosphere.
Looking at this scene of envy-inducing beauty surrounding him, Lu Yu couldn't help but sigh. This was the life that an immortal should lead.
Whether in poverty or wealth, having wives and concubines by his side, he would never feel lonely on his immortal path.
At least at this moment, he had no more desires...
"Eat your fill, everyone."
Laughter filled the second floor, with the lingering fragrance of flowers, food, and beautiful women.
...
At the same time.
Holy Spirit Mountain.
The Purple Thunder Formation rumbled loudly.
In the vast city, only a few scattered households had lights on.
The streets of the once prosperous city were now as quiet as a dead beast, as if waiting to be devoured by a ferocious monster at any moment.
The cultivators who remained in the city seemed to be living in a daze, as if they already knew the tragic fate that awaited them.
Who knows if anyone would regret being too optimistic.
Within the vast Holy Spirit Mountain, where the Thunder Nine Tribulations Soul Extraction Formation covered, the ferocious beasts' blood boiled, and their spiritual energy was in chaos.
Boom!
At this moment, a massive bolt of lightning struck, so huge that it made the entire formation seem small.
After the lightning dissipated, a giant face appeared in the sky, with electric arcs running wild, outlining the entire profile.
After a while, the giant face opened its mouth and spewed out a dazzling white light from within.
When the light dissipated, a figure in a white robe was revealed.
Boom!
With every movement of the figure in the white robe, thunder roared and lightning flashed.
Then, the entire Thunder Nine Tribulations Soul Extraction Formation suddenly formed a tremendous suction force, and purple lightning fell like rain within it.
There was no intact area left in the entire formation.
Amidst the falling purple lightning, white soul lights floated up and madly rushed towards the figure floating in the sky.
The entire formation was filled with alternating white and purple lights, which was extremely shocking.
Deep within the Holy Spirit Mountain, inside the Great Pit Pagoda.
A group of Nascent Soul cultivators frowned and communicated through voice transmission.
Suddenly, one of the Nascent Soul cultivators growled with a sinister expression, "This old monster of the Holy Spirit Mountain can no longer hold back..."
"The Soul Extraction Formation has also been fully activated. In my humble opinion, it's time to leave."
