Soul Tree
"Humph! Do you think I don't know what you're thinking? "
After leaving the inn, Cang Yi and the others stopped in a certain alley.
Cang Yi's face was cold and full of viciousness.
"Zhuo Yan, I hope that you can display your invincible might and kill Ning Yue. If you do that, then all of your resources in the Nine Furnace Divine Pavilion will belong to me."
Cang Yi knew why Ning Yue had offended Gu Yuan.
With such a deep hatred, Gu Yuan definitely did not want Ning Yue to die easily.
So, as long as Zhuo Yan killed Ning Yue, he would definitely offend Gu Yuan.
Hua!
The grudge between Cang Yi and Zhuo Yan, Ning Yue did not know.
After leaving the Alchemy Union, Ning Yue followed Chu Guang around World King City for a few rounds. After confirming that no one was following them, they stopped in front of a dilapidated house.
Chu Guang pushed open the door and walked in first.
Ning Yue used his perception to probe the surroundings for a while before following Chu Guang into the room.
Black!
Very dark!
The first thing Ning Yue felt when he entered the room was darkness. The second thing he felt was that it was very dark.
This kind of darkness wasn't normal darkness. It could even block out one's perception.
"I'll be fine in a bit."
Chu Guang knew that Ning Yue would definitely be shocked, so he formed a seal with his hands and shouted in a low voice.
"Light up!"
As Chu Guang's voice fell, the originally pitch-black room instantly became bright.
"Ning Yue, I, Chu Guang, am a man of my words. You saved me from the Alchemy Union, so I will give you a huge fortune." Chu Guang took down a painting scroll from the wall and handed it over to Ning Yue.
Ning Yue was slightly puzzled as he took the painting.
On the surface, there was nothing special about the scroll. It was very plain.
"Don't underestimate this scroll. Put your hand into the scroll and take a look."
Chu Guang didn't think there was anything wrong with Ning Yue's expression, because he had the same expression when he first saw the painting.
Upon hearing Chu Guang's words, Ning Yue raised his eyebrows and split out a wisp of his perception to probe the scroll.
After a while, Ning Yue withdrew his perception.
After pondering for three seconds, Ning Yue raised his right hand and reached for the scroll.
Boom!
As soon as Ning Yue's palm touched the scroll, he felt a huge suction force coming from the scroll, trying to pull him into it.
Whoosh!
Ning Yue hurriedly used a magical art to resist. However, this kind of attractive force was extremely terrifying. Ning Yue didn't resist for long. His body turned into an afterimage and entered the scroll.
"Hehe."
Chu Guang laughed sinisterly when he saw Ning Yue enter the painting. Soon after, his figure flashed, turning into an afterimage as he entered the painting.
When Ning Yue woke up, his eyes were filled with shock.
"What is this place?" Ning Yue's mouth was slightly agape as he felt the rich yuan energy fluctuations around him.
"Of course it's the space inside the scroll."
Chu Guang's voice rang in Ning Yue's ears.
Ning Yue looked over and saw Chu Guang slowly walking over from afar. In his hand was a blood-red fruit.
"Vermilion Fruit!"
Looking at the fruit in Chu Guang's hand, Ning Yue's face was burning with excitement. He even had the urge to jump up.
"That's right, it's the Vermilion Fruit." Chu Guang came to Ning Yue's side and threw the Vermilion Fruit to Ning Yue. "The energy contained in the Vermilion Fruit is extremely huge. If you devour and refine it, your cultivation base will at least rise to the peak of the Yin-Yang stage. You might even be able to break through to the half-step to Manifestation stage.
"This is my first gift to you."
Chu Guang pointed at a towering tree not far away and continued, "The second gift is the Spirit Tree."
"The Spirit Tree has a heaven-defying effect on cultivating Soul Power. If I'm not wrong, your Soul Power is at the peak of grade 6. If you cultivate under the Spirit Tree for a day, you might even be able to raise your Soul Power to the early stage of grade 7!"
"Spirit Tree …"
The reason why Ning Yue revealed a burning expression when he saw the Vermilion Fruit was not because it could raise his cultivation base to the peak of the Yin-Yang stage. Instead, it was because the Vermilion Fruit was one of the main ingredients in refining the Vermilion Pill.
As for the Vermilion Pill, it was recorded in the book "Reincarnation Pill Dao".
The Vermilion Pill was a grade 6 medicinal pill that was extremely helpful in improving a martial artist's physique.
Its medicinal effects were comparable to a peak grade 8 medicinal pill!
Ning Yue's current physique was comparable to a mid Manifestation stage martial artist. If he consumed the Vermilion Pill, his physique could even match a peak Manifestation stage martial artist.
However, the burning expression on Ning Yue's face disappeared the moment he saw the Spirit Tree.
Although the Spirit Tree was extremely helpful in cultivating Soul Power, its backlash was extremely terrifying.
If he was not careful, he would be devoured by the Spirit Tree and become its nourishment.
"What is Chu Guang planning?" Ning Yue had a feeling that Chu Guang was not a simple person.
As the saying went, there was no such thing as a free lunch. Chu Guang's cultivation base was at the early stage of the Manifestation stage. Although it was difficult for him to raise his cultivation base to the mid stage of the Manifestation stage by consuming the Vermilion Fruit, it could still increase his strength by ten to twenty percent.
As for the Spirit Tree, it was even more unreasonable.
Ning Yue did not believe that Chu Guang would be so kind as to give him the Vermilion Fruit and the Spirit Tree.
Thinking of this, Ning Yue maintained his composure and said, "Chairman Chu, as the chairman of the Alchemy Union, you must have a lot of medicinal ingredients on you. I wonder if you have the Three Leaf Lotus, Hundred Herb Flower, Gentian Purple …"
"What do you want these ingredients for?" Chu Guang asked curiously.
"The Spirit Tree is very helpful in cultivating Soul Power. I want to refine an elixir under the Spirit Tree." Ning Yue said, "I have never successfully refined this kind of elixir before. Now that I have the Spirit Tree, I want to try again."
"If that's the case, I don't mind giving it to you."
Chu Guang frowned slightly and flicked his wrist. Instantly, a storage bag flew towards Ning Yue.
"Other than the ingredients you mentioned, there are many more ingredients in the storage bag. You can have the rest," Chu Guang said.
"If that's the case, thank you, Chairman Chu." Ning Yue took the storage bag and cupped his fists to thank Chu Guang.
"What are you thanking me for? You saved me from the Alchemy Union. Take these as compensation."
Chu Guang waved his hand and found an empty space to sit cross-legged. Then, he began to recuperate.
Ning Yue seemed to really want to refine elixirs under the Spirit Tree. He walked under the Spirit Tree and took out his alchemy furnace.
Ning Yue's alchemy furnace was the one he won from the mysterious man at the Furnace Pavilion.
Both of his alchemy furnaces were of high quality. Both of them could squeeze into the top three of the Alchemy Furnace Earth List.
"Hong Mo, you guys help me pay attention to Chu Guang. If he dares to do anything, take him down immediately."
As Ning Yue sorted out the ingredients for refining the Vermilion Elixir, he transmitted his voice to Hong Mo and the others.
Although the Vermilion Elixir was only a sixth-grade elixir, it was extremely difficult to refine. The slightest mistake would result in failure.
Therefore, Ning Yue had to make all the necessary arrangements first.
After making all the arrangements, Ning Yue devoted himself to refining the Vermilion Elixir.
On the other side, Chu Guang saw Ning Yue's actions and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
