Uncle Jiu's Senior Brother

Chapter 192: Going to the Underworld

"Okay, big brother, we have other herbs in our Maoshan medicine storehouse, but this one herb may be a little more troublesome."

No one knows better than Hua Ling what is in the Maoshan medicine storehouse.

Now it has almost become her private warehouse. If others want to use any herbs, the elder who is in charge of the warehouse must first ask Hua Ling whether she needs it.

The flower spirit will only let the elders take it away if they no longer need it.

Her status is so high now, and no one complains.

Who knows when he will have to ask the flower spirit for help.

Ever since she was able to refine Zichuan Pills and Yunling Pills, the ability of Maoshan disciples to survive has increased instantly.

"What's the name of that medicine? Do you know where my junior sister is?"

Hua Ling was slightly hesitant.

"Tell me, you should know your senior brother's strength. There is no place in this world that I cannot go."

Lu Li said, patting his chest.

"But this place is not in the human world, it is in the underworld."

Hua Ling said in embarrassment, where else can the herbs related to longevity be found except in the underworld.

She also read in a pharmacological book that people in the world only know about the red spider lily, but do not know that there is another kind of grass in the underworld.

It is called Ambergris, and it can make the dying immortal.

But it can't make people alive.

It is rumored that this herb is just an ordinary herb in the underworld, and it gained its special effects because a dying dragon dropped saliva on it as it passed by.

And the dragon will eventually find a corner in the underworld and die quietly.

Dragons are too rare nowadays, let alone dying dragons.

From this we can see how precious this herb is. Whenever it is discovered, the underworld will solemnly collect it.

"The underworld? If Xiao Li's vitality and life span cannot be restored, then it can't be restored. We can't take this risk."

Uncle Jiu almost jumped up when he heard this. That was the underworld, not his home.

There are all legendary powerful people there. What if you go there to ask for something and they get angry and directly detain you?

Lu Li recalled what Hei Liu and Bai Shisan had said to him, that his sect had people in the underworld.

Even if you don't get the stuff, your safety is guaranteed.

So he said firmly to Uncle Jiu: "Master, the underworld is very dangerous to others, but it is not difficult for us in Maoshan.

Don't forget that you are still the boss of the Underworld Bank.

We at Maoshan are also very popular down there."

Uncle Jiu did not agree easily, "This matter must be reported to the headmaster, and I will only allow you to go if he agrees.

If he doesn't agree, you should just stay in Maoshan."

Anyway, I have enough time now, so I can deal with the future later. Nothing is more important than the safety of my apprentice.

"Well, Master, I will listen to you."

Lu Li did not force it. Even if he wanted to go, he had to understand the underworld clearly first.

"Junior sister, can you take the ambergris and eat it directly?"

Wencai asked curiously.

“Of course not. It needs to be mixed with eighteen kinds of medicinal herbs and refined over a slow fire for forty-nine days before it can be made into the Ambergris Pill.

This pill must be taken with morning dew, one pill at a time. Each pill can increase your lifespan by five years. It will have no effect after taking it three times.

It can just make up for the master's lost lifespan and vitality.

It will also strengthen the master’s foundation.

It will make it easier for Master to refine spiritual energy in the future."

Lu Li nodded. It was worth taking the risk. No one would complain about having a longer life.

"Junior sister, can't ginseng also replenish vitality? Why do we have to go to the underworld to get that herb?"

Even if Wencai was stupid, he knew that the underworld was not a good place, and that the eldest brother would risk his life if he went there.

Hua Ling explained to him patiently.

“Ginseng can replenish your energy, but it can’t increase your lifespan.

Moreover, the master is a monk with great magical powers.

It is originally a body without leakage.

Ginseng has very little effect on Master. Even if he eats a whole 100-year-old ginseng, the effect it brings can only replenish his mana."

"Oh, so that's how it is. Big Brother, it looks like you're still going to the underworld."

Wencai looked at Lu Li with sympathy.

"Idiot, Brother is going to get medicine, not to be reincarnated, why do you sympathize with him?"

Lu Li tapped Wencai on the forehead.

Uncle Jiu turned to Lu Li and said, "Xiao Li, if you must go, your own safety comes first. If something goes wrong, don't be stubborn and go back to the world of the living first."

Lu Li naturally understood this truth, the world of the living was his territory.

Because the Taoist competition will be held in a few months, Lu Li wants to finish his trip to the underworld before the competition.

This way he could also rush back to Maoshan to take charge.

When Uncle Jiu asked Master Qin for advice, Master Qin was silent for a long while.

Finally, they agreed to let Lu Li go to the underworld. After all, Uncle Jiu was only in his early fifties.

He is also very insightful and will be a pillar of Maoshan in the future. He is also his direct disciple.

Whether from an emotional or sect perspective, he would never allow any problems to occur in Uncle Jiu's path of cultivation.

Unless you want Uncle Jiu to stay in the early stage of Golden Elixir in the future.

"Xiao Li, take this jade talisman. With it, your chances of reaching the underworld will increase by 20%."

Finally, Master Qin took out a jade talisman from his arms and wiped it lovingly with his hands.

Hand it to Lu Li.

"This is the master's jade talisman. How did you give it to Xiao Li, Master?"

Uncle Jiu said in astonishment.

What? This is the master's jade talisman. Lu Li took it in his hand and looked at it carefully.

It doesn’t feel any different, and it’s not a magical weapon.

“What happened to Xiao Li? Let me tell you, if you weren’t my apprentice, he would have been determined to go.

Do you think I would agree?

He is the next headmaster of our Maoshan.

If anything happens to him, you will see how I will deal with you."

Uncle Jiu was too annoyed to say anything, while Lu Li was winking at him.

"Xiao Li, please be careful and go get ready."

"Master, I will leave now."

After leaving the hall, Uncle Jiu looked Lu Li up and down.

"I didn't realize that Master actually passed us over and was going to pass the position of the headmaster to you."

Lu Li said proudly, "Master, please respectfully address me as Young Master from now on."

"You little bastard, you are still a master. I think you need some discipline."

Uncle Jiu raised his hand to hit him, and the two began to fight again.

Uncle Jiu was only happy that Master Qin was going to pass the position of the head of the sect to Lu Li.

He never had any idea about this position.

From the beginning, he just wanted to run the charity cemetery freely in Renjia Town and help the local people solve their problems.

Later, by accident, he returned to Maoshan and took over Wanning Palace.

Every step Uncle Jiu takes now is to help Lu Li more and try not to hold this apprentice back.

But I didn’t expect it to be delayed this time.

After returning to Wanning Palace, Lu Li originally planned to leave directly.

Uncle Jiu stopped him and asked, "Do you know how to get down?"

"Can't we monks feel the underworld by simply leaving our souls and bodies?"

Lu Li said this based on some books he read in Maoshan.

Uncle Jiu's mouth twitched, "Those below the Jindan stage can indeed do that, but the time cannot be too long, otherwise the wind evil will blow away the soul."

Lu Li was stunned and asked, "Then what should I do, Master?"

Uncle Jiu walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, and said with a smile: "You can already go down in the physical body at the Jindan stage, you just need to go in openly through the gate of the underworld.

Of course, the prerequisite is that you are accompanied by someone you know."

"Master, where do we go in? Fengdu?"

"Fengdu is the residence of the Emperor Fengdu. What are you doing there? The gate to the underworld is near Mount Taishan.

There is a mountain called Haoli, from which one can enter the underworld."
