In the dungeon.
Ye Guichen greatly enjoys learning alchemy from Mo Changsheng.
The alchemy technique is even more fascinating than the art of dicine.
Moreover, the raw materials here are much more abundant than outside, and Hua Xiangrong has gathered many materials from the Ghost Market that Ye Guichen has never seen before, making him gradually realize how little he understands about this world.
Coupled with a variety of rich pills, Ye Guichen accidentally advanced the Xuanming Prison Suppressing Technique to the fifth level after consuming so pills beneficial for cultivation during breaks in alchemy.
At the sa ti, the Yi Wood Eternal Youth Technique also entered the third level.
Although on the surface Ye Guichen's cultivation is still at the Innate Realm, with no True Qi condensed, Ye Guichen is confident that with the current strength of the fifth level of the Xuanming Prison Suppressing Technique, a single palm strike could easily defeat three or five Qi Refiners.
What amazes Ye Guichen the most is the Yi Wood Eternal Youth Technique.
Previously, Ye Guichen felt that the Yi Wood Eternal Youth Technique was rely a Cultivation Technique for absorbing Spiritual Energy and aiding others in healing. But upon reaching the third level, Ye Guichen discovered that the Yi Wood Eternal Youth Technique can actually allow him to manipulate inanimate objects.
For example, if Ye Guichen wills it, he can attach a strand of consciousness to a blade of grass, and that grass will gently sway under Ye Guichen's ntal control.
This seems to have opened up a whole new world for Ye Guichen.
After so exploration, Ye Guichen directly cut out a paper figurine and imparted consciousness to it, and the paper figurine acted as if it were an avatar of Ye Guichen, not only able to move but allowing Ye Guichen to observe the surroundings through its sight.
However, with Ye Guichen's current weak cultivation, the paper figurine can only move within a three-ter radius. Beyond three ters, control is completely lost.
"Haha, if I could advance the Yi Wood Eternal Youth Technique further, would I be able to use the paper figurine as my eyes and ears?" Ye Guichen grew increasingly excited at the thought.
Hearing footsteps from outside, Ye Guichen raised his head and saw Hua Xiangrong walk in expressionlessly.
"What's the matter?" Ye Guichen casually tossed Hua Xiangrong a Qi Boosting Pill.
Hua Xiangrong was startled, took it, and quickly swallowed it whole. After hesitating slightly, she organized her thoughts and said, "Your identity as the Son of the Nether Emperor has been completely exposed. The Seven Kings' n are gathering outside. Although I've reached an agreent with you to ensure your temporary safety, the Seven Kings won't leave it at that. They're all eyeing fiercely, and there are quite a few experts secretly monitoring this place. It's likely they will use force soon to enter the Heart of the Lake Island and seize you. When that ti cos, I can only protect myself and won't be able to look after you."
Ye Guichen was already aware of what Hua Xiangrong said, and after days of pondering, he had a plan in mind. He smiled lightly, "Actually, resolving the current trouble isn't difficult."
"Oh?" Hua Xiangrong showed an interested expression.
Ye Guichen continued, "Since they all want , you might as well set up a contest at the lakeside. Whoever wins can take away."
"A contest?" Hua Xiangrong was montarily taken aback, but soon her eyes lit up.
How didn't she think of this before?
This is a perfect way to defuse the crisis.
The Seven Kings appear united but are internally divided, all desiring Ye Guichen yet wary of others making moves in secret, hesitant to act rashly.
It's not easy to make them turn against each other.
But if a contest is set up with Ye Guichen as the prize, the Seven Kings' n will certainly fight fiercely.
By then, they'll have no ti to trouble her.
Moreover, once they start fighting amongst themselves, the pressure on her side will dramatically decrease.
Hua Xiangrong gave Ye Guichen a deep look and nodded lightly, her appreciation for Ye Guichen increased. "Since we're in a collaborative relationship now, you provide with pills while I assist you, you don't have to stay here."
Her implication was that Ye Guichen could move to the rooms on the Heart of the Lake Island.
Ye Guichen, however, waved his hand, "I like it here, but Senior Mo's shackles should be removed."
Mo Changsheng, upon noticing Hua Xiangrong's arrival, had already closed his eyes and covered his ears, standing quietly aside, pretending to see and hear nothing.
But hearing Ye Guichen's words, Mo Changsheng's heartbeat still quickened noticeably.
Hua Xiangrong glanced at Mo Changsheng, picked up the key, and unlocked his shackles.
Then, she cupped her hands toward Ye Guichen and left quickly.
"Kid, you still have so conscience!" Mo Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief seeing Hua Xiangrong leave, feeling a lot lighter, he subconsciously complinted Ye Guichen.
Ye Guichen smiled lightly, "Senior Mo, I told you, I'd take you with ."
Mo Changsheng sighed long, "Ah, even if I leave, so what? I've been gone so long, even if I return to the Dan Sect, they'll certainly expel ."
"Why?" Ye Guichen asked curiously.
Mo Changsheng shook his head, helplessly saying, "Do you know the na of the faction the demoness originally belonged to?"
Ye Guichen really hadn't heard of Hua Xiangrong's forr sect, so he asked, "What's it called?"
"Joyful Union Sect."
"Joyful Union Sect?"
"That's right, this Joyful Union Sect consists only of female cultivators, relying on absorbing n's cultivation for themselves. Moreover, this Joyful Union Sect is despised by all forces. Just ntioning the na makes many feel disgusted."
"But fortunately, the location of the Joyful Union Sect was discovered years ago, and many cultivators united and exterminated the Joyful Union Sect. However, many from the Joyful Union Sect still escaped, continuing to harm others, becoming notorious heretical cultivators."
"Now that I've been captured by Hua Xiangrong for so long, I'm already marked by her, and if I return to the Dan Sect, they'll surely feel I'm no longer myself..."
Saying this, Mo Changsheng sighed again, looking desolate, "Actually, after being here for so long, I rather have no grand aspirations left. It feels like staying here forever might also be a decent choice."
Ye Guichen scoffed, "Senior Mo, you don't need to worry about this. Considering you are half my master, I won't let anyone despise you. Moreover, few know Hua Xiangrong's identity, haha, as long as I beco the Netherworld Emperor one day, and you beco my State Preceptor, who dares to look down on you?"
"Co on, State Preceptor? I don't even know how to divine!" Having spent more ti with Ye Guichen, Mo Changsheng spoke more casually. Although he said this, he secretly felt a hint of expectation.
If that day really cos, life would be without regret, wouldn't it?
