"Young Master, wait for me..."
Not long after He Pingsheng pulled Wen Buwan into the sky and flew out of the Mountain-Guarding Grand Formation, another streak of light came chasing after them.
Stone Gatherer caught up. "I was still worried you might run into danger, Young Master, so I thought I had better come along!"
He Pingsheng smiled. "I'm only taking a stroll around the city. How much danger could I possibly run into?"
"Fine, you can come along if you like!"
Within a few breaths, the three flew down from the immortal mountain and landed in the bustling city below.
Once inside the city, they stopped flying and went on foot!
"Oh, right!" He Pingsheng asked as he walked, "Stone Gatherer, it's been several hundred years now. Have you obtained the ingredients for the Spirit-Writing Heaven-Connecting Pill?"
"Young Master!" Stone Gatherer sighed. "I've gathered all the ingredients for the Spirit-Writing Heaven-Connecting Pill except the [Nine Yang Heavenly Radiance Seed]!"
"Unfortunately, this old servant visited a hundred or so nearby immortal cities and never saw any Nine Yang Heavenly Radiance Seed!"
"Never mind seeing it, I haven't even heard anything about it!"
"But don't worry too much, Young Master. Before Crimson Feather left, I reminded him to find a way to send word back if he came across it!"
As he spoke, Stone Gatherer took out a ring and handed it to He Pingsheng.
It contained the other Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
Even the main ingredient, [Parting Sorrow Water], was there.
"Mm!" He Pingsheng accepted the ring. "There's no hurry!"
He said there was no hurry, but in truth, he was rather anxious.
After all, his cultivation had already reached the tenth layer of the Heaven Immortal Stage, and he was not far from breaking through to Profound Immortal.
