Mortal Bones

"Taiping, judging from the sword-asking contest between you and Shen Li, Bazhen Powder, Shouqi Pill, and Longdan Wine should barely allow you to exert 70% of your strength."

"But the duration cannot be too long. One dose should last for a cup of tea at most."

"And the number of doses per day cannot exceed three times."

Two days later.

In the Fanlou stone room of Qiyuexuan, Fairy Lingyue and Xu Taiping were reviewing the results of this sword-asking contest.

After the sword-asking contest with Shen Li, Xu Taiping gathered with his senior brothers and sisters from Qifeng and the headmaster, and said that he would continue to retreat.

Everyone knew that he was retreating not because he gave up on himself, but because he was seeking a breakthrough in his martial arts cultivation, so no one dissuaded him.

The headmaster Zhao Qian even sent him a large amount of medicinal materials to replenish his blood and essence, and also sent him the yellow bamboo fruit from Huangfeng Valley and the 300,000 gold coins he earned from watching the battle in the spirit mirror.

"I understand, Sister Lingyue."

After listening to Fairy Lingyue's warning, Xu Taiping nodded seriously, then looked at the Eight Treasures Powder and Shouqi Pill in his hand and said:

"This Eight Treasures Powder and Shouqi Pill forcibly take away the blood and essence of the soul seal. If taken in excess, the backlash of the soul seal will be more intense."

Before the sword-asking battle with Shen Li, he had taken Eight Treasures Powder, Shouqi Pill and Dragon Gallbladder Wine, so he naturally understood the intention of Fairy Lingyue's warning to him just now.

"Moreover, my Dragon Gallbladder Stone can only be used to soak one or two pots of Dragon Gallbladder Wine at most, and it can't be soaked anymore. According to the brewing method of Tibetan Immortal Wine, at least three coins of Dragon Gallbladder Stone are required to brew a pot of Tibetan Immortal Wine."

"Now that these are left, at most three or five jars can be brewed. It can be used after diluting it, but at most ten jars."

Xu Taiping picked up his Dragon Gallbladder Stone, which was only the size of a thumb, and looked at it, and said with some emotion.

One of the reasons why he, a mortal, has been able to cultivate at the same speed as those high-level spirit bones over the years is this dragon gall wine.

"If you want to get dragon gall stone again, you may have to go to the secret realm outside the sky to find it."

Fairy Lingyue nodded.

"But according to Emperor Xuanhuang, three gourds of immortal wine are enough for you to break through the realm of transformation."

She then added.

Xu Taiping nodded and then looked at his own shadow that was constantly twisting and wriggling, and asked without raising his head:

"Sister Lingyue, do we have to wait until noon to kill this Yin God?"

"The sun's fire is the strongest at noon, which is the best time to deal with these evil things." Fairy Lingyue nodded, "So, for safety reasons, let's wait another half an incense stick."

"Okay." Xu Taiping retracted his gaze, then sat cross-legged, and placed the Broken Water Knife flat on his legs.

"Taiping, in addition to brewing the Tibetan Immortal Wine and killing the evil god, we have to start considering going to the Dry Stone Sea." Fairy Lingyue reminded Xu Taiping again at this time. The reason why Xu Taiping was reminded of this was because the two materials needed to plant the Ksitigarbha Fruit and the materials needed for the elixir that broke through the realm of transformation had to be found in the Dry Stone Sea. "Thank you, Sister Lingyue, for reminding me." Xu Taiping nodded solemnly, "After killing the evil god in the shadow and solving the worries of going to other worlds, I will immediately search for a way to go to the Dry Stone Sea." With the evil god in the shadow, Xu Taiping didn't dare to go to other worlds at all. He could only stay in Zhenwu Heaven and let the seal of the Great Emperor Zhenwu suppress the evil god. "Just remember it." Fairy Lingyue smiled. "Oh, by the way, Sister Lingyue."

Xu Taiping suddenly remembered something, so he asked Fairy Lingyue curiously: "When Emperor Xuanhuang taught me how to control the soul seal, he said that he was fighting against the sky. If there is anything I don't understand, I will ask you."

Hearing this, Fairy Lingyue frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, she replied to Xu Taiping:

"I was once a disciple of Huangting Taoist Palace. Emperor Xuanhuang must have seen through my master, so he said that to you."

"As for the fight against the sky he mentioned, I don't really understand it."

Fairy Lingyue rubbed her eyebrows at the end, then looked at Xu Taiping with a serious expression and said: "After my soul was shattered in that incident that I can't tell you for the time being, many of my memories about myself are blank, and they have not been restored until now."

"Will your memory be restored after the earth fruit matures a few more times, Sister Lingyue?" Xu Taiping asked curiously.

"It's possible, but I can't guarantee it."

Fairy Lingyue smiled bitterly and shook her head, then looked at Xu Taiping with a serious face and said, "But Emperor Xuanhuang has given you this method to restrain the soul seal, you can indeed try it. He is a being that can't deceive you on this matter."

"I think so too." Xu Taiping smiled calmly, "No matter what the result is, it's better than sitting here and waiting for your life to run out."

Using the Demon Emperor's Yuanshen to forge the sword, and using the furnace to forge the body to transform the netherworld energy in the soul seal into spiritual power, each of which is an unheard-of act against the heavens. No one can say whether the heaven will backfire.

"Boom!..."

Just as the two were talking, a sound of gas explosion suddenly sounded in the stone chamber.

Then Fairy Lingyue saw that streams of black smoke kept floating out from the shadow behind Xu Taiping.

"Taiping, be prepared. This evil god may have sensed your murderous intentions and is ready to attack you in advance."

Fairy Lingyue reminded seriously.

Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping nodded silently and reached out to grasp the handle of the Broken Water Knife.

"Xu Taiping!"

Just as Xu Taiping was quietly waiting for the evil god to drag him into the abandoned street like last time, Daogui's voice suddenly rang in Xu Taiping's ears.

"Senior Daogui?"

Xu Taiping knew that Daogui, who never said much nonsense, must have something important to say at this time.

"Xu Taiping, give me a soul fire stone, and I can pull you into my sword domain when the evil god appears."

Daogui sent a voice to Xu Taiping's soul.

"Taiping, did Daogui tell you something?"

The fairy Lingyue on the side sensed that Xu Taiping was sending a voice to someone, and immediately asked.
