Chapter 158: Cleansing the Soul on Red Sun Peak, Today is the True Self

Three days later.

There was information coming from the jade slip that Chu Ning got from the purchasing office.

Someone wants to trade with him.

After learning the news, Chu Ning rushed to the purchasing office.

Purchasing office.

In addition to Qu Zhongshu, there was also a middle-aged man.

Chu Ning knew that this person should be the one who wanted to trade with him.

"Hello, senior."

After paying respectful tribute to Qu Zhongshu, Chu Ning then looked at the middle-aged woman in front of him. Like himself, she was in the late stage of foundation building.

"According to the rules, you two can leave now and discuss the transaction on your own. I can confirm that he has the soul cleansing liquid you want."

The purchasing agency does not allow the purchaser to act recklessly, and will also verify the person who owns the item being purchased to prevent the other party from not having the item and deliberately not completing the transaction to earn the deposit.

"Thank you, Senior. What is your name?"

"Gu Qing."

"Friend Gu, should we go to another place to talk?" Chu Ning asked for the other party's opinion.

"Let's talk here. Originally, I didn't plan to trade the Soul Cleansing Liquid, but after hearing from Uncle Qu that Fellow Daoist Chu is good at refining pills and can also refine foundation-building pills, I decided to trade with Fellow Daoist Chu."

Gu Qing's words made Chu Ning look at Qu Zhongshu in surprise. Did this senior know about my situation? "Your basic situation is not a secret in the Jindan circle of my sect. I know a little more about it. I know that you once refined a foundation-building pill."

Qu Zhongshu coughed, and Chu Ning understood what was going on.

Tang Ruowei is a talented disciple of Xiyue Sect. Suddenly, she has a fiancé. The Jindan masters of Xiyue Sect will definitely be curious. In order to avoid objection from these Jindan masters, both Tang Ruowei and Tang Ruowei's master must explain their basic situation to prove that they are worthy of Tang Ruowei.

Chu Ning would not think that these Jindan masters were meddling in other people's business. If Tang Ruowei was an ordinary disciple of Xiyue Sect, these Jindan masters would definitely not be able to interfere.

But Tang Ruowei is already the chief disciple of the younger generation of Xiyue Sect. Although the strength of this chief is a bit exaggerated, this identity means that Tang Ruowei can enjoy the training of resources from the entire sect.

The more resources you enjoy, the more responsibilities you have to bear.

Even marriage is the same. The marriage of the chief disciples who are trained by these major sects will affect the future development of a sect.

As a high-ranking member of a sect, a Jindan expert is naturally qualified to express his opinions.

"Junior understands."

Chu Ning looked at Gu Qing: "So, Brother Gu wants to use the Soul Cleansing Liquid to exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill?"

The Soul Cleansing Liquid is not as precious as the Foundation Establishing Pill, but the Soul Cleansing Liquid is in short supply because it is needed by powerful Jindan masters, so it is possible to trade the two.

"One Foundation Establishment Pill in exchange for ten drops of Soul Cleansing Liquid." Chu Ning readily gave the offer.

"Fellow Daoist Chu, if it is an ordinary Foundation Establishment Pill, I can exchange it with other treasures. What I need is one of high quality." Gu Qing explained hurriedly.

Chu Ning was a little puzzled: "Yes, I mean the quality ones. Can't a good quality foundation building pill be exchanged for ten drops of soul cleansing liquid?"

When it comes to alchemy, Chu Ning has simply ignored the ordinary quality, because he wants to make it himself, with the help of the Secret Mirror, so the minimum starting point is good quality.

But his matter-of-fact expression made Gu Qing stunned.

Even those famous second-grade alchemists cannot guarantee that the foundation-building pills they refine will be of good quality.

"Fellow Daoist Chu, I only have two sets of materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill, and I cannot give you multiple opportunities to refine it." Gu Qing explained again.

"That's enough." Chu Ning answered confidently.

Qu Zhongshu, who was standing by, twitched his mouth as he listened. This kid is really confident.

"Okay, then..."

Gu Qing was delighted to see Chu Ning so confident. She needed the Foundation Building Pill for her daughter. If she had a good quality Foundation Building Pill, with her daughter's qualifications, she would have a 90% chance of succeeding in building the foundation.

But before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Qu Zhongshu.

"Chu Ning, what if I ask you to refine a top-grade foundation-building pill?"

Qu Zhongshu stared at Chu Ning with sharp eyes. The look of a Jindan expert was still very oppressive, but Chu Ning's current spiritual awareness was not lower than that of a Jindan expert, so he didn't feel anything.

Before Chu Ning answered, Gu Qing was shocked.

She didn't even dare to think about the top-grade foundation-building pill.

Due to the special nature of the Foundation Building Pill, even a third-grade alchemist cannot guarantee that he can refine a top-grade Foundation Building Pill. He can only guarantee that the probability of refining a top-grade one will be higher than that of a second-grade alchemist.

Uncle Qu thinks that Chu Ning can refine a top-grade foundation-building pill? Before this, Qu Zhongshu was not absolutely sure whether Chu Ning could refine a top-grade foundation-building pill.

Although he is not an alchemist, he knows several alchemists and knows that the alchemist circle is full of so-called metaphysics.

The so-called metaphysics is uncertainty when analyzed. If you refine a top-grade pill today, you may not be able to refine it with the same materials next time.

Chu Ning had refined a top-grade foundation-building pill in the past, but that didn’t mean Chu Ning was now in the late stage of foundation-building and that he would be able to refine a top-grade foundation-building pill.

Of course, there is still a possibility of success, and asking an alchemist to make an elixir is actually a gamble on the probability of success.

"Senior, this may be difficult." Chu Ning replied after hesitating for a moment.

Qu Zhongshu's eyes lit up. Chu Ning answered "difficult" instead of "can't do it", which means that Chu Ning is still confident.

"How confident are you?" Qu Zhongshu asked.

Gu Qing's eyes widened. Did Uncle Qu really think that this fellow Daoist Chu could refine a top-grade foundation-building pill? Uncle Qu hadn't been rejected too many times by Uncle Yang and his mind was muddled.

This Fellow Daoist Chu is at the Foundation Establishment stage. At most, a person at the Foundation Establishment stage is a second-grade alchemist. A second-grade alchemist can only refine top-grade Foundation Establishment pills. Uncle Qu really dares to ask this question.

But what Gu Qing could not have expected was that not only did Uncle Qu dare to ask, but Fellow Daoist Chu also dared to answer.

"Well...if you're lucky, I'm probably halfway there."

Chu Ning hesitated for a moment and gave an ambiguous answer. In fact, for him, after opening the secret mirror, the difficulty of making good quality and high quality products was not much different.

However, a foundation-building pill that can guarantee good quality will not attract the attention of too many powerful people, but it is different for a top-quality one.

Even though the possibility that these Jindan powerhouses of Xiyue Sect had ill will towards him was not very high, Chu Ning was not willing to take the risk.

An alchemist who can guarantee to refine top-grade foundation-building pills is too tempting for a sect.

Qu Zhongshu could understand the alchemist talking about luck.

A 50% chance of success is already very high.

"If I ask you to refine a top-grade foundation-building pill, how many drops of soul-cleansing liquid would you need?"

"Senior, this is not about how many drops of soul cleansing liquid you have, this is..."

"A hundred drops will be enough."

"senior……"

"Two hundred drops."

"Youngsters, please give it a try."

Crazy!

Gu Qing, who was standing aside, had an illusion that it was not Uncle Qu and Fellow Daoist Chu who were crazy, but himself.

Was he possessed and hallucinating? In the end, Gu Qing didn't know how he walked out of the purchasing office. He only knew that he took out a bottle with ten drops of soul cleansing liquid, and then gave Fellow Daoist Chu two packages of materials for the foundation-building pills, and agreed to pick up the foundation-building pills in two months.

In the purchasing office, Qu Zhongshu looked at Chu Ning with a serious expression: "Two hundred drops of Soul Cleansing Liquid, I will get you one hundred drops first, and give you the rest after it is refined. As for the materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill, I can get you at most five."

Although Qu Zhongshu is a powerful Jindan master, he does not have many materials for foundation-building pills. As a high-ranking member of the sect, he has to consider the foundation-building of the sect's Qi Condensation disciples. Generally, the foundation-building materials will be handed over to the sect.

He had to shamelessly go to other sisters and juniors to get the five sets of materials. However, the Soul Cleansing Liquid was easier to get. There was some in the sect's treasury. It was just an advance withdrawal of the Soul Cleansing Liquid quota for the next twenty years.

Three hours later, Chu Ning waited for Qu Zhongshu to return.

"There are materials for the Soul Cleansing Liquid and Foundation Building Pill inside. Refine them well and make a top-grade Foundation Building Pill. I promise there will be other rewards for you."

"Don't worry, senior. I will do my best to refine it."

Chu Ning left with the storage bag with a smile on his face. When he returned to his cave, he immediately took out the bottle of soul-cleansing liquid given to him by Gu Qing.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"If there are only ten drops of soul cleansing liquid, then they must be used to split the soul. However, since there are more than a hundred drops this time, there is no need to rush. These ten drops can be used to cleanse the soul first."

Jindan monks use soul cleansing liquid to cleanse their souls and make them more stable, in preparation for forming a Nascent Soul in the future.

This is what Chu Ning knew from his master. Although he has not yet formed a golden elixir, it does not mean that he cannot cleanse his soul. It’s just that the effect will not be as good as when he was in the golden elixir stage.

The effect is halved, and the demand for Soul Cleansing Liquid among Jindan powerhouses is huge, so few Foundation Establishment cultivators can afford it.

Even a sect like the Xiyue Sect, even if they focused on training Tang Ruowei, would not be willing to use the Soul Cleansing Liquid on Tang Ruowei.

Just a few drops, not much effect.

Giving more means wasting more.

That is to say, Qu Zhongshu, the warrior who charges forward for love, is willing to overdraw all the soul-cleansing liquid he can obtain in the next twenty years to trade with Chu Ning.

If it were someone else, even if Chu Ning had a top-grade foundation-building pill, he might not be able to exchange it for two hundred drops of soul-cleansing liquid.

"Old Black, guard the hill well."

Chu Ning gave Lao Hei some instructions, then poured a drop of soul cleansing liquid into his palm, and then began to practice the Unmovable As A Mountain Technique to absorb the drop of soul cleansing liquid in his palm.

After the soul-cleansing liquid entered his body, the spiritual liquid in Chu Ning's dantian did not change, and even his entire person did not change.

One drop was not enough, so Chu Ning continued with the second drop...

When absorbing the fifth drop, Chu Ning found that his spiritual consciousness began to spread outward uncontrollably, and in an instant it reached the limit of what his spiritual consciousness could reach.

As his spiritual consciousness spread automatically, Chu Ning's entire vision changed, and he began to perceive the entire world from an extremely subtle angle.

In the past, when Chu Ning used his spiritual sense to perceive his surroundings, everything around him would become increasingly blurry as the distance increased.

The closer you are, the clearer your perception will be. If it reaches the limit of your spiritual sense, the clarity will drop a lot.

For example, it is like watching a movie, which changes from the original ultra-high-definition resolution to a smooth resolution.

But now he discovered that no matter whether it was the ten meters around him or the farthest area of ​​his spiritual awareness, all the images were equally clear and had ultra-high definition.

But this is not Chu Ning’s biggest gain. Although he cannot see his own soul at this moment, he can feel the existence of his soul.

This is a very mysterious feeling.

"So now the soul cleansing liquid has begun to cleanse my soul. The clarity of consciousness is one of the benefits of the cleansing."

Chu Ning poured the remaining five drops of Soul Cleansing Liquid into his palm again, and at the same time took out the jade bottle given by Qu Zhongshu, which contained one hundred drops of Soul Cleansing Liquid.

This time, he directly got ten drops in each hand.

After absorbing twenty drops of soul cleansing liquid, Chu Ning was not only able to sense the existence of his soul, but he could even sense where his soul was.

The next moment, all the experiences of his life appeared in Chu Ning’s mind.

Born on Earth, he opened his first eyes in life under the expectant gaze of a young couple.

Growing up, studying, rebelling, early love...

Studying and then entering society

These scenes of the past were clearly reflected in Chu Ning's mind.

Taking him back to the memories of a series of days from birth to the present.

At this moment, Chu Ning was no longer on guard.

Lao Hei appeared in front of Chu Ning at some point, with anxiety in his eyes.

He and Chu Ning had a life agreement, so at this moment he could feel that there were two consciousnesses in Chu Ning's body.

One belongs to Chu Ning, and the other one belongs to the original owner of this body.

The soul of the original owner of this body was actually aroused at this moment, although there was no battle between the two souls.

But there is only one body. If Chu Ning cannot wake up, the body may be occupied by the soul of the original owner.

"Nothing can happen at this time. Damn it, if something happens to you, I will be in trouble too."

Lao Hei gritted his teeth, and his body slipped into Chu Ning's body, constantly calling out.

"Chun Ning, wake up quickly."

"Chun Ning, Miss Tang is here."

Unfortunately, no response.

Lao Hei was helpless. He didn't know why the soul of the original owner of Chu Ning's body was still there. Logically speaking, the original owner of this body was dead and had no soul, so it was impossible for him to still have a soul.

What Lao Hei didn't know was that Chu Ning heard his call at this moment. Not only did he hear it, he even saw another soul.

A soul exactly like his.

It comes from the soul of the original owner of this body.

The two looked at each other, and the original body's soul slowly walked towards Chu Ning and entered his body.

From beginning to end, Chu Ning was completely unprepared.

"Thank you, fellow Taoist."

After the spirit and soul were completely integrated, Chu Ning whispered.

The original body's soul also sensed all the experiences of his soul being transferred to this body.

The other party did not want to steal his body, but to take advantage of this opportunity to cleanse his soul and completely restore his soul to its full state.

Cleansing my soul on the Red Sun Peak, today I am my true self.
