Chapter 68 I want it all After an unknown amount of time, all the semi-black groundwater was drained. All that was left at the bottom were some stagnant water and wet, rotten mud. Ruan Xing loosened his hands exhaustedly, and his whole body slid to his knees, with his calves sinking into the soft mud. At this moment, he no longer cared about the dirt on the ground. Most of the tens of thousands of suppressed Yin ghosts were devoured by the pennants and swords, and others tried to avoid them as much as possible. However, Wang Zhi, a demon cultivator in the foundation-building stage, still had to use the mechanism to extract the black water before she dared to come down to take the ink marrow, and she happened to have a powerful weapon that could restrain the Yin ghosts. And there are two of them, isn’t that a coincidence? This ink marrow is naturally destined to be with her. Jian Lai's body is filled with Yin energy that is about to overflow. If it weren't for the stitches in his mouth that locked the Yin energy and prevented it from leaking out, it would have leaked out while he was eating. Ruan Xing has already thought it through. She is not a magic cultivator, so there is no point in refining magic weapons. After getting the ink marrow, she will replace Jian Lai's accessories and use the ink marrow to refine his puppet's essence, improving both its software and hardware. He will also learn a few more techniques from the "Netherworld Ghost Record". The puppet has no bottleneck in cultivation, so when he has refined all the Yin energy, he will probably be promoted to the Golden Core stage directly. She is just a young girl practicing Qigong, but with the protection of the Jindan stage, she will walk sideways from now on, and her mouth will be crooked with smile. The pennant was also shrouded in smoky black air. The Ten Thousand Souls Banner was a magical weapon that could grow. The more evil spirits and ghosts there were in it, the higher the grade of the magical weapon would be, and the more powerful it would be. Ever since she gained spiritual awareness, she had a better understanding of the pennant and how to use it. To absorb the souls of living people, her soul and cultivation must be stronger than the other party. There is no such limitation when it comes to capturing the souls of evil spirits. If the other party has a slightly higher cultivation than her, she can also restrain the other party. Once those evil spirits enter the banner, they can refine their memories of their previous lives in three days and be used by the banner master in a daze. They devour each other like raising Gu, and eventually become part of the evil ghost army in the banner.
Ruan Xing could clearly feel that the triangular flag had become more solid, and the dark patterns of the talismans on the flag were faintly emitting golden light. After consuming this wave of evil spirits, the triangular flag was almost reaching the level of a top-grade magical weapon. The water has been drained, and I'm afraid Wang Zhi will come down soon. Ruan Xing has to hurry to find Hanshan Mo Sui. Without the black water, her spiritual sense spread out like a net, extending to the surroundings without any hindrance. Although the spiritual sense of the ninth level of Qi training can only detect a maximum of ten to twenty meters away from the body, if she walks faster in the mud, she should be able to complete the detection within a quarter of an hour. Ruan Xing's spiritual consciousness seemed to be missing a piece as if it had probed into the void. She was delighted and hurriedly trudged in that direction. The feeling was similar to the one she had gotten in the last simulation when she used her spiritual sense to touch the snow marrow. There was a slender pillar on a stone platform, and the ink marrow was inlaid on the top of the pillar. Ruan Xing stretched out her hand and exerted a little force, then took the ink marrow down. Before she could figure out how to get out of the dark bottom, a faint white light emitted by a night pearl was getting closer and closer. "Your Excellency is really calculating." Wang Zhi looked at her unkindly. Ruan Xing smiled modestly, "I don't deserve it, I'm not as good as you, brother." There are not many people as innocent, kind and simple as her. If it weren't for the simulator, she would have been killed by this evil cultivator many times. "I just don't know how you got here before me? Aren't you afraid of ghosts? Are you an evil cultivator who specializes in controlling ghosts?" Strictly speaking, the golden finger "Ghost Records of the Netherworld" that the author gave to the original heroine really does record in detail the various ghost cultivation and methods of controlling ghosts. Puppetry and triangular flags all come from it. However, Ruan Xing would not tell the other party honestly. After all, she expected that "The Ghost Record of the Netherworld" was 99% likely to be a heavenly-level martial art. Except for herself who could not practice it due to the simulator, everyone else would be tempted when seeing it. That’s a heavenly level technique! It doesn't matter if you die, right? Wang Zhi didn't expect Ruan Xing to answer. As soon as he finished speaking, a diamond-shaped spike appeared in his hand. Demonic energy surged from his body and he rushed towards Ruan Xing. Perhaps it was because he felt that the two of them were of the same kind and there was no need to pretend in front of Ruan Xing, so Wang Zhi used all his strength from the start. No matter how hard Ruan Xing resisted, he could not overcome the chasm between the ninth level of Qi training and the late stage of foundation building. So soon, this simulation ended again. Ruan Xing frowned and thought, if she only took the snow marrow, she would have a chance to live in peace with the demon cultivator, so why not be greedy? Of course she wanted to take it all! In the previous simulation, Wang Zhi did not get the ink marrow until the next morning and released the ghost to escape in a panic. If there were no accidents, it should be the same this time, so she probably spent a night at the bottom of the river after going into the water.
It took her almost a whole night to absorb the pool water at the top of the mountain and transform her spirit bones. You can't have your cake and eat it too. Even a master of time management can't take away the Snow Marrow and Ink Marrow overnight. But fortunately, she had a sword. Ruan Xing opened the text simulation. In her mind, after Wang Zhi led the snake away, she climbed up to the top of the mountain by herself, while Jian Lai brought the pennant along the underground river to the bottom of the water. A two-pronged approach, and since Jian Lai is not affected by the ghost illusion, he might be able to go faster if he goes underwater himself. After Jianlai had absorbed enough Yin Qi and taken away the ink marrow, he moved upstream. When Wang Zhi activated the mechanism to start pumping water, he used the Yin Qi to protect his body and was pumped into the underground river along with the water flow. Then Jianlai climbed up to find her. Jianlai's ghost escape technique could only allow him to stay in the air for a short time and he could not fly. At that time, she would take Jianlai and fly away from Hanshan Peak on his sword. Wang Zhi didn't have large-scale means to deal with the ghosts, so he had to pump water. He couldn't take the water route, so Jian Lai would be safe and wouldn't meet him halfway. However, once Xue Sui and Mo Sui leave the range of Hanshan Peak, Hanshan Peak will collapse in an instant. She has to rush to the exit of the secret realm as soon as possible and leave the secret realm before Wang Zhi finds her. Less than an hour after leaving the secret realm, Ruan Xing was killed by a masked demon cultivator. She tentatively chose a random item and got a low-grade spirit stone. Well, it turns out that her luck is not that good and she can’t get it for free. Then Ruan Xing suddenly remembered that Wang Zhi once said that he could directly enter the interior of Hanshan Peak because the magic weapon in his hand was related to Mo Sui. So is this also the reason why he was able to find her so quickly? It seems that she can't keep the ink marrow on her body, but it doesn't matter, as it was originally used for the sword. Ruan Xing simulated it again. She put the Snow Marrow and Ink Marrow on Jian Lai's body, and then let Jian Lai return to the Mortal Dynasty. Jianlai can become invisible and has a concealed effect. He has been with her for such a long time without being discovered by Wang Zhi. In addition, he is protected by the Mortal Dynasty's barrier tree. Jianlai is a dead object and can enter and exit freely, but the demon cultivator cannot. If the demon cultivator attacks the barrier tree, there is no need for Ruan Xing to rescue him. The group of old men in Liuyang Study will be enough to deal with him. Ruan Xing was extremely looking forward to the dog-bite-dog drama. At present, it seems that the plan was successful. Ruan Xing successfully returned to Yunyang City. Half a month later, she was killed by the demon cultivator in the courtyard where she rented. The reason why the demon cultivator found her this time might be because of her appearance and body shape... Hiss... But she doesn't know how to disguise herself. It would be great if she could learn it from a demon cultivator... But even if you use your toes to think about it, you will know that it is impossible. Ruan Xing decided not to go back to Yunyang City. Anyway, all her things were with her in the storage bag. She had only rented the courtyard for a month, so it didn't matter whether she went back or not. The most urgent thing was to seek shelter from a sect. As a demon cultivator, it is impossible for him to break into someone else's sect and kill her, right? He simply doesn't care about the mountain protection formation and the face of the sect leader. Ruan Xing made up her mind that after coming out of the secret realm, she would let Jian Lai take Xue Sui Mo Sui away directly, while she would follow the group of Xuan Bing Sect's outer disciples at the entrance of the secret realm and stay with them all the time! As long as the evil cultivator was not sure that he could kill them all without any risk, he would not dare to take action! Wait for her to stay in Xuanbing Sect until the late stage of foundation building, or wait for Jian Lai to come back after refining the Yin Qi. Humph, by then, will she be afraid of a mere Foundation Establishment Demon Cultivator? Beat him up. The only drawback is that she doesn't know if there is any way to make money in the Xuanbing Sect without leaving home... She only has 800 points left, and the text simulation is 80 times, which is too little, so little that she feels a sense of crisis. Be thrifty and frugal, save money for the foundation-building period, and then make good money! After everything was settled, Ruan Xing leisurely piloted his flying sword towards the entrance of the secret realm.
Finally seeing Wang Zhi's ordinary face in real life, Ruan Xing wanted to punch him, but she still smiled and said, "What should I call you, friend?" She wanted to see how many names this kid could make up. "My name is Liu Bi, you can call me whatever you want." Ruan Xing choked and almost choked on his own saliva. He coughed twice and then said with a smile, "What a coincidence, you and I have the same last name. I am Liu Bo." Although Wang Zhi felt that it was a bit strange for a little girl to have this name... it didn't matter. He showed a more friendly expression and started to make friends with Ruan Xing. With Ruan Xing's deliberate encouragement, the two soon became brothers and sisters. He then took her to the Black Water Lake. After Wang Zhi led the snake away, Ruan Xing seized the opportunity, took out the triangular flag and gave it to Jian Lai, telling him what he needed to do. Although Jianlai's words were not clear, he was serious when there was something to do, and he would definitely do it beautifully and reassuringly. After Jian Lai went into the water and left, Ruan Xing also put on a water-avoiding talisman and swam and climbed upstream. Because of her previous experience, Ruan Xing's time to reach the top was much shorter this time. When she saw the ice water pool, it was not yet dusk. Ruan Xing took a deep breath and climbed into the pool. As soon as she entered, she felt numb from the cold and shivered. She endured the stinging pain from the pool water and began to use the spiritual energy in it to practice. Ruan Xing also understood what Wang Zhi meant when he said that the snow marrow could not be touched. A normal person would quickly pull his hand back as it would be freezing cold after touching the water. However, after pulling his hand back, not only did it not thaw, but it began to turn into an ice sculpture. Who wouldn't be horrified when seeing this? A ruthless person would directly choose to cut off his arm to save his life. No one with a normal brain like her would dive into the pool. Over time, this legend was passed down and turned into snow marrow that could not be touched. It was also because she had the simulator and was brave enough that she was able to take advantage of this loophole. When Ruan Xing opened her eyes again, a silver-white streak had appeared in the sky. Jian Lai was sitting on the ice waiting for her. He had no water-repellent talisman on him and his clothes were all wet. At the temperature on the top of the mountain, they were frozen into ice in a few seconds. Although the puppet was not afraid of wind and snow, the frozen clothes affected his movements. He tried to stand up several times but failed. Ruan Xing exhaled a breath of white air and came out of the pool. "It's almost dawn. When did the water rise down there?" Jian Lai gave her a vague answer in the mind link. About half an hour ago. I guess by now Wang Zhi was already furious because he couldn't find Mo Sui underwater. She had to hurry up. Ruan Xing directly dug out the white jade bead from Jian Lai's eye socket, crushed it with his spiritual power, and slapped his soul directly on the ink marrow, mixed it with his own essence and blood, and refined it according to the method in "The Ghost Record of the Netherworld". Snow marrow and ink marrow are materials that can be used to refine spiritual weapons. Ruan Xing knew without even having to guess that the grade must be very high. With her spiritual power, she is completely unable to destroy its shape and refine it into the appearance of a weapon. Fortunately, she does not need to change the shape. It is fine now. Although it is a little bit bigger, the spherical shape is enough to fit into the eye socket. After the refining was completed, Ruan Xing stuffed the freshly-made eyeball in, and Jian Lai's body finally had a different color, although it was black. It would not look good if the other side was empty, so Ruan Xing stuffed the snow marrow in there as well. There was no soul from the sword inside, so it was just a decoration. Anyway, the treasure was self-concealing, and there was basically no fluctuation of spiritual power and nothing could be seen. Wait until she reaches the Nascent Soul stage in the future and has the ability to refine spiritual weapons, then she can take out the snow marrow. After doing all this, Ruan Xing took out the yellow paper and the talisman pen and began to write a letter. While writing, he muttered to Jian Lai, "When you go back, find a mass grave or charity cemetery in Jiangning City to refine the Yin Qi in your body. After you get used to this new puppet nature, go to the Red-Headed Taoist's cave and learn the other spells in "The Ghost Record of the Netherworld". You don't need to learn a lot, as long as you can master one or two more offensive spells. Protect yourself when practicing, don't let your Yin Qi leak out. Now is different from before. You have so much Yin Qi in you. Be careful not to be discovered by the new national master of Huaining City. The national master is in the Jindan stage, you can't beat him... Then I wrote this letter to my sister and your brother. You will understand it after you read it to them. There is also a formula for practicing Qi in it. Let them practice and see if they can feel the Qi. I don’t have the conditions to find spirit stones for them now, so just practice and see. If you can feel the Qi, you have spirit bones... I have said so much, did you remember it?" Jian Lai nodded slightly.
Ruan Xing was stunned. "You can nod now!? Good, good, you have made progress. This Hanshan Mo Sui is really special. It's not too long before you can speak clearly in the future. I won't have to guess what you are saying anymore..." Ruan Xing happily folded a few pieces of letter paper and put them into Jian Lai's arms, then summoned his flying sword and prepared to leave. It was almost dawn and time was running out. Ruan Xing grabbed the sword's hand and jumped onto the flying sword. He took out the wooden tablet, input spiritual power into it, and then made a hand gesture to rush in the direction indicated by the wooden tablet.
