Lady Yun Hua was already dead, but she was still alive in a strange form.
Her body was dead and her heart had stopped beating, but the magical power in her meridians was still circulating and flowing according to the corpse refinement technique, keeping her body from rotting. As for her soul, it was supposed to enter Samsara after death, but it was sealed in the heavenly spirit. Sealing the heavenly spirit was a corpse refinement technique that could retain the spiritual wisdom of the corpse, but it was only passed down in ancient times. Ancient Chaos's memory didn't mention this secret technique, otherwise, Ning Fan could dig out Ning Honghong's corpse and make a corpse for her to 'resurrect' …
This woman could be Yun Hua, but she could also be not.
Rumor had it that Old Ancestor Jing Zhuo was a narrow-minded man who didn't want his wife to show her face in front of others. In fact, he wasn't being narrow-minded, but he was afraid that Yun Hua's identity as a corpse refinement would be exposed.
Even when his Dao companion became a corpse refinement, Jing Zhuo still stayed by her side. This red-haired old man was an infatuated man.
Of course, the premise was that Jing Zhuo didn't lie about this matter. Ning Fan didn't comment on whether Jing Zhuo was telling the truth or not.
"Little friend, you don't believe that I'm in love with a corpse?"
“...”
"Forget it. It's not wrong for you to doubt this matter. Little friend, your name is Black Devil and you have the noble title of Revered Ning. Although your cultivation base is high and your skill in concocting pills is strong, your experience is still shallow … On the Purple Jade Sky Platform, when you attracted the Core Formation Heavenly Tribulation, this old man could see the struggle in your heart … In the past, this old man had also struggled, but that was something that happened hundreds of years ago … "
"Oh? Fellow Daoist Jing Zhuo also struggled with the tribulation of severing love? "Ning Fan was slightly startled and slightly interested in Jing Zhuo's words.
"That's right. I knew Yun Hua before I formed my core. At that time, Yun Hua's cultivation talent was above mine, but she didn't break through to the Gold Core realm because she couldn't bear to forget me. I didn't break through to the Gold Core realm either, I couldn't bear to sever my love and forget everything … until that incident happened. At that time, Purple Yin, who was only an elder of Extreme Yin Sect, fancied my wife and attacked her when she went out to complete the sect's mission … "
Speaking of this, Jing Zhuo closed his eyes painfully without any pretense.
"Yun Hua is so silly … If she had followed Purple Yin, she wouldn't have died. Why didn't she follow? Why would she rather die … After Yun Hua's death, my heart was like dead ashes and I broke the barrier of love! I retrieved Yun Hua's corpse and refined it into a refined corpse. This matter has already happened for hundreds of years. I'm afraid that no one in Yue Country remembers the Harmonious Spirit Realm Yun Hua. I'm afraid that even Purple Yin doesn't remember this. He doesn't know that every day, I can't wait to eat his flesh! But I'm no match for Purple Yin! Therefore, I need the Nascent Soul Pill! I need to become stronger! "
Jing Zhuo's gaze suddenly turned crazy.
"I want to form my Nascent Soul! I don't want to live forever, I don't want to be unstoppable. I just want to cut Purple Yin into pieces so that the pain in Yun Hua's heart will be slightly reduced … If her identity as a refined corpse cannot be allowed to exist in the world, I would rather overturn the entire sky and correct her reflection! Do you understand this feeling? Ai, I'm a little excited and said too much … Fellow Daoist Ning, this old man only has one thing to say! If you help me with this matter, this old man is willing to gift the Fire Cloud Sect to you as thanks! "
Ning Fan's expression changed!
It wasn't because of Jing Zhuo's generosity in gifting the Fire Cloud Sect to him.
What moved Ning Fan was Jing Zhuo's craziness and obsession!
He didn't want to live forever and he didn't want to be unstoppable. He just wanted to correct his reflection …
This was a kind of obsession. It was an obsession that made Ning Fan waver! Initially, Ning Fan thought that his persistence in not severing his emotions was already considered as persistence. However, compared to Jing Zhuo, his persistence seemed insignificant.
Ning Fan closed his eyes and fell into silence.
Jing Zhuo didn't seem like he was lying. No, it should be said that such a person would never lie about the matters of his true love because it was a kind of blasphemy! Words could deceive others but one's Dao Heart could never be deceived! Jing Zhuo's Dao Heart would never regret even if he were to die a hundred times. Ning Fan could clearly feel his craziness and deep obsession towards Yun Hua.
If the Extreme Yin Sect really wants to attack Ning Cheng, it would be very difficult for him to face the joint attack of the Extreme Yin Sect and the Heavenly Dao Sect alone.
Allying with the Fire Cloud Sect was a wise move. With the Fire Cloud Sect restraining the Extreme Yin Sect, the pressure on him would be greatly reduced!
Moreover, after annihilating the Extreme Yin Sect, he could openly take over the entire Fire Cloud Sect as a reward.
Since he had no use for the Fire Cloud Sect, he might as well change his reward and propose other conditions to Jing Zhuo. For example, Ning Fan was extremely interested in Jing Zhuo's special corpse refining technique. For example, the Fire Cloud Sect had a large number of spiritual herbs and cultivation methods which Ning Fan might need.
Of course, it would be extremely foolish for Ning Fan to not fully trust Jing Zhuo. He still maintained a trace of vigilance. This was the basic principle for cultivators to interact with each other.
"If the Extreme Yin Sect really wants to kill Ning Cheng, I will be very happy to ally with Fellow Daoist Jing Zhuo. However, I wonder if Fellow Daoist Jing Zhuo has a specific plan to deal with the Extreme Yin Sect? "
"I do! Firstly, I need a Nascent Formation Pill to break through to the Nascent Soul realm! However, I don't know if Revered Ning has the confidence to concoct a Nascent Formation Pill within a month! "
"Nascent Formation Pill?" Ning Fan was slightly stunned.
"That's right. The sect master of the Heavenly Dao Sect seems to be in seclusion. He will only come out after three months. Therefore, the plan of the Purple Yin Sect and Heavenly Dao Sect to massacre Ning Cheng will most likely be carried out three months later … "
"There are still three months left … If that's the case, I really need to make some preparations …"
Ning Fan didn't ask about the source of Jing Zhuo's information.
It wasn't hard to guess that there was a spy planted by Jing Zhuo in the Extreme Yin Sect. Since he had the intention to kill Purple Yin Sect, it wasn't strange for him to plant a spy for hundreds of years!
"I will concoct a Nascent Formation Pill at most half a month. However, I don't think you can refine the pill and break through to the Nascent Soul realm within two and a half months."
"That's right. I will need at least a hundred years of seclusion to 'completely' break through to the Nascent Soul realm. But what if I only need to raise my magical power to the Nascent Soul realm? So what if I temporarily suppress my cultivation realm and don't break through? I think it will be enough to increase my strength. If I can successfully annihilate the Extreme Yin Sect, I will go to the Endless Sea and break through to the Nascent Soul realm there … "
"I see … Alright, leave the matter of the Nascent Formation Pill to me … Oh, if Fellow Daoist Jing Zhuo goes to the Endless Sea, you must bring me along. I also plan to go there, but unfortunately, I'm not familiar with the way there … "
"You want to go too?" Jing Zhuo was slightly surprised.
"The Lost World Palace! Our goal seems to be the same. "Ning Fan said with a smile.
"Hiss! Fellow Daoist Ning is quite well-informed … That's right, there's indeed a Lost World Palace in the Endless Sea. It's the ideal place for me to form my Nascent Soul … If Fellow Daoist is willing to travel with me, I won't have any objection … "
Jing Zhuo laughed and did not refuse. At this moment, he had something to ask of Ning Fan. Thus, he naturally would not displease Ning Fan at this moment.
Ning Fan looked at Jing Zhuo with a hint of approval. This Jing Zhuo is really good at adapting to circumstances.
Consuming a Nascent Formation Pill would only allow one's magical power to reach the Nascent Soul realm while suppressing one's cultivation realm. This method was something that ordinary people would never be able to come up with. In fact, it was even more difficult to implement. But Jing Zhuo dared to think this way, so he must be completely confident.
If Jing Zhuo's magic power reached the Nascent Soul realm, he would have a great chance of winning against Old Devil Purple Yin even if he hadn't broken through to the next realm.
"If that's the case, I have to congratulate Fellow Daoist for forming your Nascent Soul in advance …" Ning Fan said with a smile.
"Haha, if this old man is fortunate enough to form my Nascent Soul, I will not forget Fellow Daoist Ning's kindness. In order to eliminate Purple Yin, this old man still has some plans that I hope Fellow Daoist Ning can adopt … "
"I'd like to hear the details … but before that, I would like to ask for something from Fellow Daoist Jing Zhuo …"
"If Fellow Daoist needs it, feel free to take it!"
"Immortal Jade, the more the better! Also, I'm also interested in your wife's Soul Sealing Corpse Refining Technique. One more thing, if Fellow Daoist can gather all the medicinal ingredients listed in this jade slip, I'll be more than happy to concoct two more pills for Fellow Daoist … "
Ning Fan waved his hand and took out a jade slip. He imprinted two pill recipes on it with his spirit sense and passed it to Jing Zhuo.
Jing Zhuo didn't show the slightest dissatisfaction after hearing that Ning Fan wanted the Immortal Jade and the Corpse Refining Technique. The Immortal Jade was originally a gift to Ning Fan and the Corpse Refining Technique was something that he obtained by chance in the Endless Sea. Although it was precious, it wasn't something that couldn't be taught to outsiders.
It was fine if Ning Fan asked for the items, but Jing Zhuo would doubt Ning Fan's sincerity if Ning Fan didn't ask for anything in return.
As for the matter that Ning Fan said that he was willing to concoct two more pills for him …
After receiving the jade slip, Jing Zhuo scanned through it with his spirit sense. All the medicinal ingredients required were precious and they were at least two thousand years old …
Jing Zhuo's face twitched. It wasn't easy to gather all these pills. He didn't know what kind of pill Ning Fan was going to concoct for him. If it was a pill that wasn't really useful to him, it would be a waste to spend so many rare medicinal ingredients …
But when he read the pill recipes to the end, his face was suddenly filled with shock and then ecstasy. He looked at Ning Fan with inexplicable gratitude!
These two pill recipes weren't useless at all!
One of them was called Nascent Solidifying Pill. The effect of this pill was to increase the success rate of forming a nascent soul. Although its effect wasn't as good as the Nascent Formation Pill, its success rate could be stacked with the Nascent Formation Pill, increasing Jing Zhuo's chances of forming his nascent soul!
But what really made Jing Zhuo ecstatic was not the Nascent Solidifying Pill, but the second pill – Corpse Life Pill!
This pill was a Fourth Revolution Pill. Its effect was very unorthodox. It could increase the lifespan of a refined corpse. In fact, it wasn't accurate to say that it increased the lifespan of a refined corpse. A refined corpse wasn't a living thing. Instead of increasing its lifespan, it would be more accurate to say that it increased the rate of wear and durability of the refined corpse, allowing the refined corpse to live for a longer time.
Refined corpses were the same as magic treasures. They would eventually break down and the life force of a physical body would be exhausted one day.
This Corpse Life Pill was a pill that could increase the lifespan of a refined corpse!
The Nascent Solidifying Pill was concocted for Jing Zhuo while the Corpse Life Pill was concocted for Yun Hua!
Yun Hua had lived as a refined corpse for hundreds of years. His soul power was depleted and the life force of his physical body was exhausted. What Jing Zhuo suffered the most was that he couldn't resurrect Yun Hua. Secondly, he couldn't extend the lifespan of Yun Hua's refined corpse.
To Jing Zhuo, this pill was even more precious than the Nascent Solidifying Pill. It was even more precious than his cultivation base and his life!
The reason why he formed an alliance with Ning Fan was to take revenge on Purple Yin.
However, if he knew that Ning Fan had the ability to extend Yun Hua's lifespan earlier, he would be willing to give up everything and become Ning Fan's dog just for the sake of Yun Hua's survival!
"If Fellow Daoist Ning can save Yun Hua, I, Jing Zhuo, am willing to give up everything and become Fellow Daoist's slave!" Jing Zhuo said with a serious expression.
"Fellow Daoist, you don't have to do this. If you can prepare all the medicinal ingredients, concocting this pill will just be a piece of cake for me …"
"Rest assured, Fellow Daoist! Even if I have to put my life on the line, I will definitely find these medicinal ingredients! "
There were obviously a few types of spiritual herbs in the jade slip. Their effects were neither to solidify one's nascent soul nor to extend one's lifespan … Even though Jing Zhuo didn't know the Dao of Pill Concoction, he could still tell that Ning Fan was most likely asking Jing Zhuo for the reward in the name of searching for the medicinal ingredients.
Jing Zhuo wouldn't point it out and he wouldn't care about it. There was nothing more important than Yun Hua. The other things were insignificant!
"If that's the case, let's talk about the matter of annihilating the Extreme Yin Sect …" Ning Fan said with a smile.
...
One day later, Ning Fan and Jing Zhuo each made a Great Oath of Heart Devil.
