Chapter 209 Soul Nourishing Liquid

Chapter 209: Chapter 209 Soul Nourishing Liquid

In order to break through to the Spiritual Origin Realm, one needs to compress Innate True Qi, transforming it into a liquid state. At that time, the power contained in a single drop of Spiritual Origin would be enough to rival a hundred times the Innate True Qi, which is the foundation of a Martial Artist’s strength in the Spiritual Origin Realm.

However, compressing Innate True Qi is not something that can be accomplished with Secret Techniques alone. If such massive power is not supported by a sufficient physical body, the most likely result is a body explosion and death.

Generally, a Martial Artist would nourish their meridians over a long period using Innate True Qi, continuously refining the width and toughness of the meridians until they can withstand the Spiritual Origin.

There are also those like Zhong Lin who practice Physical Body Secret Methods like the Dragon Elephant Golden Body, although it’s estimated that not even a Low Grade Earth-level Cultivation Technique can be found across the Luoxing Islands.

Zhong Lin is still very grateful to Chen Jia for this, if not for the loophole left in the Secret Technique he provided.

Half a month later.

With the once-in-a-decade grand auction of Purple Cloud City approaching, the flow of people in the entire city has noticeably increased.

Even various private exchange meetings are vigorously proceeding, with a rather high frequency.

Zhong Lin, wearing the attire issued by Shuiyun Building for Guest Elders, strides along the street, with Tang Xueyuan by his side.

Tang Xueyuan is dressed in a purple-pink gauze dress, her jet-black hair tied with a light purple ribbon, and a tightly fitted waist, outlining a curvaceous figure. When she smiles, there are dimples at the corners of her mouth, innocent and charming.

Wherever the two pass, most pedestrians greet them with smiles, especially when they see the four purple clouds on Zhong Ling’s chest.

Male Martial Artists, upon seeing Zhong Lin, wish to get acquainted, while female Martial Artists hold the same attitude and are also envious, jealous, and resentful of Tang Xueyuan beside him, wishing they could take her place.

A Fourth Grade Alchemist in the entire Purple Cloud City is an unattainable figure for most Martial Artists, and everyone wishes to make connections.

“Tone it down; your tail is almost wagging into the sky.”

Zhong Lin laughingly scolds Tang Xueyuan.

Tang Xueyuan doesn’t restrain herself at all, wrapping Zhong Lin’s arm tightly with her hands, enveloping it with two areas of softness, eager to melt into it, saying proudly, “I just love to see the look on their faces when they can’t stand me but are helpless.”

These days, she has completed every task Zhong Lin assigned very well, almost reaching the standard of a secretary, and doesn’t worry about being dismissed, so her little thoughts have started to arise.

Of course, these little thoughts are also within the scope allowed by Zhong Lin, and Tang Xueyuan knows this.

Zhong Lin smiles and shakes his head, no longer paying attention, and walks straight to the stalls of some Loose Cultivator Martial Artists, examining each booth one by one.

In past novels, he frequently saw protagonists picking up bargains, although he never got lucky, but one must always have dreams. Maybe it could be realized!

“Deep Sea Clam Pearl for sale…”

“Specialties from the Tianlan Mountains, come and have a look…”

“An unmatched Secret Technique obtained from an ancient cave residence, said to cultivate to the Transcendent Realm…”

…

Looking all the way, Zhong Lin helplessly realizes he doesn’t have that fate.

The items on the stalls are sometimes real and sometimes fake, and only with some Spiritual Medicine can he make an identification, as for other things, he can’t distinguish them at all.

After all, on his path of cultivation, Zhong Lin has spent nearly all his time improving his strength and is now in a place completely different from the Xuan Gui Continent, the Luoxing Islands. Not to mention picking up bargains, even some basic common knowledge hasn’t been clarified yet.

So the chance of picking up a bargain is pretty much nonexistent.

Zhong Lin gives a bitter smile and shakes his head: “The reason picking up bargains became legend is precisely because it’s extremely rare, extremely uncommon. I don’t have the protagonist’s fate either, so forget it, I’ll just honestly go to the auction and shop at high prices!”

As he is about to leave, his eyes suddenly shift, and he stops at a stall.

“Is the esteemed Pill Master here to buy Spiritual Medicine? The ones I have here are all superior quality.” An elder woman in her fifties behind them promoted.

“Not bad.”

Zhong Lin glanced over the old woman’s stall, and while he couldn’t speak for other items, he did have some knowledge when it came to medicinal materials.

The Spiritual Medicines on this old woman’s stall are not many, nor are they particularly rare, but their quality is excellent, and they are of sufficient age.

“How much for this?”

Zhong Lin pointed to the “Heavenly Essence Fruit” at the center of the stall and inquired.

That’s right, it’s the Heavenly Essence Fruit. Zhong Lin never expected to see the Heavenly Essence Fruit, which many Martial Artists on the Xuan Gui Continent desperately sought, on this stall. It’s the main ingredient for refining the Breakthrough Pill.

“In response to the esteemed Pill Master, this Heavenly Fate Fruit was obtained by this old body after much toil from the Tianlan Mountains, and for this fruit, my old man was seriously injured…”

“Price.”

“One hundred Spirit Stones.”

“Bought.”

The old woman’s face first lit up with delight and then was full of regret. She opened her mouth intending to say something, but after seeing the four purple clouds on Zhong Lin’s chest, she wisely closed her mouth.

Zhong Lin took out one hundred Spirit Stones from the Storage Bracelet and tossed them over, grabbed the Heavenly Essence Fruit, and turned to leave.

Watching the back of Zhong Lin as he left, the old woman stamped her foot, full of regret on her face.

“Ah! If only I had asked for more.”

Zhong Lin circled the stall area once more, bought a few more Spiritual Medicines, and then left.

Wind Willow Alley.

“Brother Zhong, great news!”

Zhong Lin had just landed at the entrance when Gao Xin happened to see him and immediately stepped forward: “Didn’t you ask me to inquire about an exchange meeting? I’ve found one, being held in a teahouse, with possibly ’Soul Nourishing Liquid’ for sale. Of course, the seller mentioned that if the bid doesn’t meet their expectations, they’ll take it to the grand auction.”

“Thank you, Brother Gao, please lead the way and let me meet the seller.”

Zhong Lin was equally delighted, giving a quick salute.

The name ’Soul Nourishing Liquid’ clearly indicates it’s intended for Chen Jia, hidden in the Soul Nourishing Ring for a thousand years. Zhong Lin’s Innate True Qi can at most prevent his soul from dispersing, but repairing it requires some special things, like ’Soul Nourishing Liquid.’

Actually, the method for refining Soul Nourishing Liquid isn’t difficult, but the materials are scarce, so Zhong Lin asked Gao Xin to help him inquire.

Immediately, with Gao Xin, he went to the exchange meeting and found the seller.

After a close conversation, Zhong Lin paid enough Spirit Stones to satisfy the other party and obtained a bottle of Soul Nourishing Liquid.

Back home, Zhong Lin patted the Soul Nourishing Ring, and then Chen Jia’s soul flew out from within.

This period, Zhong Lin has also grasped some basic situations; it is indeed possible for Chen Jia, hiding in the Soul Nourishing Realm, to observe external conditions. However, such behavior consumes significant Soul Power, so under normal circumstances, he would sleep in the Soul Nourishing Ring and not be so bored as to observe Zhong Lin mating.

“Master, I found the Soul Nourishing Liquid.”

Zhong Lin shook the half-bottle of Soul Nourishing Liquid in his hand excitedly and said.

Chen Jia was overjoyed, surprised, and said, “Quick, open it.”

The cork was opened, and Chen Jia brought his whole face close to the Jade Bottle, taking a deep breath. The half-bottle of Soul Nourishing Liquid turned into a verdant-green mist and flowed into his body.

Chen Jia’s face was full of enjoyment, letting out a moan, and even his figure became slightly more corporeal.
