Immortality from Taming Elephant-Chapter 195 - 128: Corpse Refinement, Fifth-Grade Pill Formula
Later, some people from the Cha Family discovered that it was possible to perform the Spirit Stealing from the blood of Demon Beasts, but this method went against heavenly harmony and was warned by experts from the Great Inner of the Court at the time. However, it was unexpected that internal development of this Secret Technique by the Cha Family had never ceased.
They were no longer satisfied with stealing spirits from Demon Beasts, and instead, they set their sights on those famous experts in the Jianghu!"
Xu Guang nodded at the words.
Jiang Bai continued, "There’s a rule in Chuannan Prefecture; if you kill a remnant of the Cha Family, you can make a request to the four families. If you’re interested in the Martial Techniques of Dragon Gate or the Taiyi Alliance, pay attention to this matter."
Xu Guang finally showed some interest.
His Martial Arts Cultivation had not progressed for a long time, the Gold Attribute condensing slowly, and recently he planned to retrain Fuyu, hoping to succeed in cultivating the Sea-Overturning True Skill to gain double Gold Attribute.
However, he had previously considered trying to refine a Golden Core, which only the Dianyin Sect could achieve, but the progress was equally slow.
The Taiyi Alliance excelled in Alchemy and Artifact Refining. If he could kill someone from the Cha Family and exchange for an alchemical method or pill formula from the Taiyi Alliance, it wouldn’t be a bad deal.
After a pause, Jiang Bai added, "I heard you’ve been looking for Moonlight Grass recently?"
"Don’t bother, this thing comes from Yongzhou, and recently there’s unrest over there. The Qi-replenishing effect of Moonlight Grass is extraordinary and is already controlled by the Ten Thousand Laws Sect. I’ll try my best to get some for you later."
Xu Guang clasped his hands in thanks.
"Alright, keep the Cha Family matters in mind, and be cautious they don’t target you for Spirit Stealing."
...
The remnants of the Cha Family were not easy to find. Xu Guang had the Xiang Family and the people of the Governor Mansion enhance patrols but did not do anything unnecessary.
[Name: Xu Guang]
[Professional Talent (Pharmacist): Immune to Hundred Poisons (having tasted a hundred herbs, immune to all poisons)]
[Skills (Pharmacist): Green Dragon Entwining Hand lv9 (252/10000), Distinguish Qi lv10 (max), Touching Spirit lv10 (max)]
Distinguish Qi and Touching Spirit are basic Pharmacist skills evolved from Medicine Recognition and Medicine Matching, they are Green Grade skills and have now reached their peak.
Green Dragon Entwining Hand is an alchemical method given to him by Tang Cheng. Initially, it was just a Green Grade skill, but Xu Guang evolved it to Blue Grade.
It’s now almost at its peak.
Xu Guang closed the panel, taking out the Sea-Overturning True Skill (Middle Volume) that he had just obtained from Master Fuqing last month from his chest.
In the afternoon, the crimson light dyed half of the sky’s clouds red. The clouds were thick and dark, giving an extremely uncomfortable oppressive feeling.
"Master, it’s going to rain."
Du Shizhen was practicing in the courtyard, looked up at the sky, and spoke to Xu Guang.
"Practice your skills, once you reach the third level of Rapid Rain Skill, I’ll take you to Jiufeng Mountain."
Rapid Rain Skill is a precursor to the Sea-Overturning True Skill.
It is also the Cultivation Technique currently practiced by Du Shizhen.
Du Shizhen’s eyes flashed with excitement, nodding vigorously.
After a moment, he spoke again.
"By the way, Master, you’ve been at Jiufeng Mountain for over a year. Do you know Senior Brother Lin Zushan?"
Seeing Xu Guang not responding, Du Shizhen continued speaking.
"I heard that Lin Zhenren went to Shouyang Prefecture and even killed five Dark Tower experts, one of which was a Fifth-Grade expert. Quite impressive!"
Xu Guang still didn’t respond, only squinting his eyes.
He naturally knew about this matter.
Recently, Lin Zushan had been quite impressive outside.
Last year, at the end of November, he intended to cause trouble for this person but didn’t expect him to leave Jiufeng Mountain first, go to Shouyang Prefecture, and attack a Dark Tower base there with his people.
Afterwards, he naturally eradicated that base, and rumors said he seized countless treasures, splitting them equally with the Jiang Family in Shouyang Prefecture.
Du Shizhen wanted to say more, but Xu Guang shot him a sharp glance.
"Do you know that among those following him was someone called Jiang Ziyu?"
Du Shizhen shook his head.
Xu Guang spoke softly.
"Jiang Ziyu was from the Jiang Family, which, as you should know, has even deeper roots than our Jiufeng Mountain. Jiang Ziyu was valued by the Jiang Family’s Main Branch from a young age and became Innate at the age of twenty-one..."
Du Shizhen didn’t understand why Xu Guang was talking about Jiang Ziyu.
Xu Guang continued,
"You only saw Lin Zushan sweeping away a Dark Tower base, but you didn’t know Jiang Ziyu died in the process. If you don’t practice martial arts now, do you want to become like Jiang Ziyu in the future?"
Du Shizhen’s expression became vivid, gritting his teeth.
Xu Guang wasn’t just scaremongering.
Though Lin Zushan’s actions against the Dark Tower were indeed impressive, he had also offended many in the process.
As far as Xu Guang knew, half of the treasures seized from the Dark Tower base were taken by the Jiang Family to appease Jiang Ziyu’s relatives, and the Dark Tower had already placed a large bounty on Lin Zushan.
This made Xu Guang feel that his current low-key approach was the safest, even the Jiang Family’s actions could face unexpected consequences.
In this world, nothing is without unexpected events.
...
On another day.
Xu Guang met with Jiang Zi Yun.
The Grand Sacrifice assessment was about to start, expected to begin in May, entering Wangdang Mountain, with the assessment lasting two months.
The main task is to slay a rather rare Fierce Ghost in Wangdang Mountain, the Headless Corpse.
Most of these Fierce Ghosts are Sixth Grade, but their composition is special, able to occupy the headless bodies of creatures. If they occupy them long enough, they leave Ghost Essence inside the body.
Ghost Essence is useless to ordinary people, but it seems to have a significant effect on the sites of major forces.
"I’ll try my best to get the Dragon Blood to you by the end of April."
Xu Guang said with a smile, "We have been through hardships together, so there’s still that trust."
Jiang Zi Yun just smiled back.
