"I'll talk, I'll talk right now!" After weighing the pros and cons, Shopkeeper Yin, who had lost his physical body, knew that he might still have a chance to live if he obeyed Ling Dong. If he had the chance to seize the spirit and possess the body, he might have a chance to make a comeback in the future. However, if his spirit was destroyed, then he, Yin Lizhi, would have no trace left in this world.
"Then tell me, why did you go through so much trouble to set up this alchemy mission?" Ling Dong asked.
"Money tree. It's mainly because I discovered that your alchemy ability is very strong, and your alchemy speed is even comparable to Alchemist Kui Xing's. Thus, I had the idea of making you my money tree," Shopkeeper Yin replied very quickly, almost without thinking.
He had already seen Ling Dong's decisiveness in killing. He did not want to lose his last chance to live because of Ling Dong's hesitation.
"Money tree? Can you be more specific? "Ling Dong asked with a frown.
"Uh … It's to make you work day and night without complaint to earn Reiki for me without asking for any compensation!" Shopkeeper Yin explained.
"Pill slave? How ruthless! " A cold light flashed in Ling Dong's eyes. This Shopkeeper Yin was indeed up to no good. However, Ling Dong could not figure out how he, Shopkeeper Yin, could do all this. How could he, Ling Dong, work day and night without complaint to refine pills without asking for any compensation?
"Get to the point. How do you plan to make me your pill slave and money tree? Don't tell me you have that extremely precious secret art that can seal other people's spirits? "Thinking of this possibility, Ling Dong's eyes could not help but light up. If he could really obtain the secret art that could seal other people's spirits and control them from Shopkeeper Yin, then it would be a great gain.
Hearing Ling Dong's question, Shopkeeper Yin shook his head awkwardly. "I don't have the secret art that can seal other people's spirits …" Before he finished speaking, Shopkeeper Yin saw Ling Dong's face suddenly turn gloomy. The Spirit Extinguishing Awl that was suspended in front of Ling Dong suddenly exploded with brilliance.
"Don't. The secret that I can make you my pill slave and money tree is actually the Purple Amulet in your hand. That Purple Amulet is a magical Soul Controlling Amulet.
When a martial artist does not resist, the Purple Amulet can imprint the aura of the person who sacrificed the amulet in their Star Soul. from there, they will recognize the person who sacrificed the amulet as their master. If I can successfully activate that Purple Amulet, then I can make you my pill slave and money tree, "
Seeing that Ling Dong was about to get angry, Shopkeeper Yin told him everything in one breath.
But even though he said it, Ling Dong did not dare to believe it. Ling Dong was very sure that the amulet had such a powerful effect. But when the Purple Amulet's use came from Shopkeeper Yin's mouth, he had to maintain a skeptical attitude.
This Shopkeeper Yin was as cunning as oil. If he hid some crucial information, then it would be troublesome.
"This Purple Amulet actually has such a magical effect? You're saying that you can use this Purple Amulet to turn me into your pill slave? Are there no other methods? "Ling Dong questioned.
Shopkeeper Yin panicked when he heard this. "It's true. It's precisely because this Purple Amulet requires the recipient to not resist that I set up these traps step by step. I was prepared to make you unconscious before activating this Purple Amulet. This way, you could see the flaw.
If I had some kind of Soul Restriction Secret Technique, with the difference in cultivation between you and me, I wouldn't have to go through so much trouble. I would have just beaten you half to death and used some kind of Soul Restriction Secret Technique on you. Otherwise, I wouldn't have ended up like this! "
At this moment, Shopkeeper Yin was afraid that Ling Dong would not believe his words. He had lost his physical body and heart. If he had, he would probably want to cut open his heart and show it to Ling Dong.
"That's true …" After thinking carefully, Ling Dong nodded. This Shopkeeper Yin's words were reasonable and completely in line with reality.
Hearing Ling Dong's affirmation, Shopkeeper Yin revealed a joyful expression. But the moment this joyful expression appeared on his face, he was frightened by Ling Dong's next sentence.
"However, I still don't dare to believe your words." Raising the Purple Amulet in his hand, Ling Dong waved it at Shopkeeper Yin's Astral Soul and said, "Do you want to find a way to prove that this Purple Amulet's use it exactly as you said? Do you want me to use the Soul Searching Technique to confirm the truth of your words?"
"Then won't you know once you use this Purple Amulet?" Shopkeeper Yin said carefully with a dejected expression.
"Oh? This means that you have a lot of these Purple Amulets? Give me your Qian Kun Ring! " As he spoke, Ling Dong waved his hand, and the Qian Kun Ring in Shopkeeper Yin's Astral Soul flew into Ling Dong's hand.
Ling Dong's gaze suddenly turned cold. Using his Divine Thought, Shopkeeper Yin let out another miserable cry. Then, Shopkeeper Yin was shocked to find that he had suddenly lost contact with the Qian Kun Ring that contained half of his wealth.
"He actually erased my Soul Brand on the Qian Kun Ring so casually … God! What kind of monster did I provoke? "Shopkeeper Yin moaned painfully when he saw this scene. Shopkeeper Yin was very clear that unless he had an overwhelming advantage over Ling Dong in terms of Soul Power, he would not be able to do it as easily as Ling Dong.
"Eh? You're quite rich. Let me see, 40,000 … A total of more than 75,000 Medium Reiki. Hehe, not bad, they're all mine! "
After sweeping all the Reiki from Shopkeeper Yin's Qian Kun Ring into his own, Ling Dong smiled with satisfaction. He wondered if the nine red-clothed senior brothers of True Gang Sect had so many Reiki.
As this thought flashed across Ling Dong's mind, he suddenly realized that Shang Luoxu's assets were probably much more than this amount.
The 75,000 Medium Reiki was definitely the biggest gain that Ling Dong had made since he came to the Wood Puppet World. It could be said that he had become rich overnight. However, among the 75,000 Medium Reiki, nearly 10,000 Medium Reiki were earned by Ling Dong when he sold the prescription of the Spirit-Gathering Golden Horse Pill to Shopkeeper Yin.
Under the manipulation of Shopkeeper Yin, the prescription of the Spirit-Gathering Golden Horse Pill was sold at a price of only 900 Medium Reiki. However, there were so many buyers. Shopkeeper Yin earned a lot from the nearly 20 people who bought the prescription.
It had to be said that Shopkeeper Yin was a profiteer among profiteers!
Moreover, the 75,000 Medium Reiki was not all that Shopkeeper Yin had. Ling Dong estimated that with the elixirs in Shopkeeper Yin's Qian Kun Ring and the things in the study, it would not be a problem to gather 100,000 Medium Reiki.
"Oh, what a big gain! Now I don't have to worry about the Reiki!"
Looking at Ling Dong's smile, Shopkeeper Yin wanted to cry. His savings of nearly 100 years had all gone to Ling Dong. But even so, he might not be able to keep his life.
Just as he was feeling inexplicably depressed, Shopkeeper Yin suddenly shuddered, because Master Ling Dong's expression in front of him was not right again.
"Where's the Purple Amulet? Why didn't I find another one in your Qian Kun Ring? "Ling Dong asked in a low voice.
"Master Ling, Ancestor Ling, if I have another Purple Amulet, I'll be struck by lightning. I'll be swallowed by the Spirit Seizing Possession and my Divine Soul will dissipate!" Shopkeeper Yin, who felt wronged, pointed to the sky and swore with a sobbing tone. He wished he could dig out his heart and show it to Ling Dong.
However, Shopkeeper Yin's words made Ling Dong even more puzzled. "Shopkeeper Yin, you only have one Purple Amulet, so how do you know the use of this Purple Amulet? Could it be that you made up some nonsense to deceive me? "
Shopkeeper Yin panicked when he heard that. "No, no. This Purple Amulet is a treasure that I obtained from exploring the Star Demon Ruins more than 40 years ago. I obtained a total of four Purple Amulets like this …"
"Obtained from the Star Demon Ruins? Four? What about the other three? " Ling Dong's expression changed. The Spirit Extermination Awl showed signs of being activated, which shocked Shopkeeper Yin so much that he hurriedly explained.
"Master Ling, Ancestor Ling, listen to me first! Initially, I obtained four Purple Amulets. However, when I obtained them, I didn't know the use of these Purple Amulets. Therefore, I used the first Purple Amulet as an experiment.
My luck was not bad. With the first Purple Amulet, I coincidentally discovered the magical use of this Purple Amulet to control other people's souls. However, at that time, I wasn't too sure. However, I didn't want to waste this precious Purple Amulet.
Because I opened a medicinal ingredient store, I had a special alchemist with decent alchemy skills. After I drugged him, I used this Soul Controlling Purple Amulet on him. After that, I had my first money tree! I only needed to provide medicinal ingredients for him to refine pills for me. However, he didn't want any remuneration and even worked hard without complaint. He was completely a money tree in human form … "
"Hmph!"
Ling Dong's cold snort woke up Shopkeeper Yin, who was immersed in the money tree state. The moment the latter woke up, he continued, "After that, I used the same method to create a second money tree.
Now, I only have one Purple Amulet left. However, it is extremely precious and I don't want to use it easily. I wanted to find an alchemist with unique talent in alchemy to use it. I slowly searched for more than ten years before I finally found a suitable one … "
At this point, Shopkeeper Yin looked awkwardly at Ling Dong. He had failed to beat the tiger and was hurt by it instead. There was no need to mention the gloominess in his heart.
"I still have the same old saying. If you can prove your words, I will believe you!" Ling Dong still maintained an extremely high level of vigilance. He didn't dare to believe Shopkeeper Yin's one-sided words without any basis.
In that moment of great anxiety, Shopkeeper Yin's expression changed. It was as if he had found a life-saving straw. He hurriedly said, "Money tree, the two alchemists that I used this Purple Amulet to control are now working hard to refine pills for me. I will immediately order them to come over and prove it to me!"
"Oh? Alright, but you better not play any tricks. Otherwise, I will dissipate your soul immediately! "Ling Dong scolded.
"There's no need to go out. They are so close. I will directly use my soul to order them. They will sense it and come over!" Shopkeeper Yin said anxiously.
"This Purple Amulet is really so magical?" Less than an hour later, Ling Dong looked at the two alchemists standing respectfully in front of Shopkeeper Yin. Their cultivations were at Level Seven and Level Nine respectively. He was dumbfounded.
Even if Shopkeeper Yin only had his Astral Soul left, these two alchemists were disdainful of Ling Dong. However, they were abnormally obedient and respectful to Shopkeeper Yin. Even if Shopkeeper Yin ordered them to take off their clothes, these two alchemists, who were revered outside, would do it without hesitation.
The most frightening thing was that these two alchemists did everything naturally under Shopkeeper Yin's orders. They didn't have the slightest bit of dissatisfaction.
"Master Ling … Now, you can believe me, right?" Shopkeeper Yin asked carefully after seeing the shock on Ling Dong's face when he ordered the two alchemists under his control to do all kinds of outrageous things.
"I believe you …" Ling Dong replied softly. He looked at Shopkeeper Yin and suddenly realized that he, Ling Dong, might be able to obtain his first business in the Wood Puppet World!
