Chapter 385 In such a perilous situation, why not go all in?
Xu Jiu looked at Zhu Wanyin with a surprised expression, then at the Xuanjun token in his hand, and suddenly felt a little strange.
man?
What are you, a man, doing looking for other men?!
However, Xu Jiu didn't ask any further questions. Instead, he took the portrait handed to him by Zhu Wanyin, glanced at it briefly, and then shook his head, saying:
“Lord Xuanjun, there are countless people coming and going in Chaos City every day, and most of them wear hoods, so it’s impossible to locate them by their appearance alone.”
"However, the two characteristics that Lord Xuanjun just mentioned, namely body refinement and ascension, are still very useful for finding people."
Xu Jiu said with a smile.
Zhu Wanyin responded with a soft "hmm" after hearing Xu Jiu's words, then leaned back in his chair and slowly asked:
"I'll leave the search to you. Also, I've heard that Chaos City is full of people from the Demon Palace. Do you have any good stuff there?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Jiu immediately understood the meaning of "Candlelight Ten Thousand Yin".
The Ascension Ointment has strict regulations within the Immortal Alliance, meaning that its stimulating effect cannot be too high after consumption. This is to prevent excessive mutations in the cultivator's body after long-term use.
This has resulted in a shortage of Ascension Ointment circulating within the Immortal Alliance, leading some genius cultivators who pursue the ultimate to try and obtain Ascension Ointment from the Demon Palace in order to satisfy their cultivation desires.
After all, in the Demon Palace, there are no restrictions on the Ascension Ointment. As long as it doesn't cause immediate death, the apothecaries will maximize its effects.
Are you kidding me? You're practicing spiritual cultivation and still need to restrain yourself? What's the difference between that and snapping your poop?
"Understood, I will go and select a few Ascension Creams for Lord Xuanjun to taste."
Xu Jiu quickly replied.
Zhu Wanyin listened and then nodded in satisfaction.
On the other side, in a cave in the back mountain.
Ding Yi was sitting cross-legged on a futon, holding a stone in one hand and meditating with his eyes closed.
It must be said that the Five Elements Heaven-Mending Scripture is surprisingly effective.
As long as there are enough materials, it doesn't matter how strong one's talent is; just absorb them.
In just one month, Ding Yi absorbed three materials of different attributes, which made the five-colored luster on his body even darker.
Click!
As the last two stones in his hand shattered, Ding Yi shuddered, let out a long breath, and then slowly opened his eyes.
However, he did not end his cultivation immediately. Instead, he reached for his chest with one hand and pulled out the nuclear sword.
Ding Yi was quite fond of this weapon.
This thing is not only easy to use, but it also has a large area, so you don't have to worry about the other person escaping when you're slashing or hitting them.
After all, it's easy to determine which has a wider effective area, a door panel or an ordinary longsword, without even needing inequalities.
Therefore, this time Ding Yi specially asked the Blood Tower to send some materials that could increase the weight, in order to upgrade his nuclear sword again.
The upper realm was indeed different from the lower realm. The Blood Tower quickly sent over a heavy stone, and this stone, which was only the size of a thumb, weighed a thousand pounds.
At this moment, Ding Yi waved his hand, and the box next to him opened automatically with a bang, revealing the black stones inside that shone like stars.
Ding Yi looked at the stones and a smile appeared on his lips. Then he took out a brush and wrote the words "strengthen weight" on each stone.
These five star stones alone cost Ding Yi another five hundred years of his lifespan.
However, Ding Yi felt that he hadn't lost out at all.
He not only doesn't mind spending money on things that can improve his strength, but he even feels that the money is being spent too slowly.
Ding Yi stroked his chin, sat on the futon, and pondered for a moment. Then he opened his mouth and spat out a stream of spiritual fire, which enveloped the five enhanced star stones in front of him and began to refine them.
Three more days passed, and on this day, Zhu Jiu Jie returned with a message.
Unfamiliar faces began to appear around the back mountain.
If this were an ordinary place, it wouldn't be surprising.
But this was the territory of the Demon Sect, a city in the Chaotic Lands, and Ding Yi immediately realized that something was wrong.
"What kind of strength do they all possess?"
After thinking for a moment, Ding Yi asked the question.
"I don't know, but it's definitely not at the level of a Xuanjun, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to escape at all."
Zhu Jiu Jie is a mountain spirit, and he has an unparalleled ability to conceal his aura in these mountains. If one's cultivation level is far superior to his, one would not be able to detect him at all.
Moreover, Zhu Jiu Jie was exceptionally sensitive to smells. He could clearly tell that those people had never appeared before, otherwise their smells wouldn't be so fresh and pungent to him.
Ding Yi nodded slowly upon hearing this, then waved his hand, signaling Zhu Jiu Jie to return to his little den, and warned him not to run around for the next few days.
After Zhu Jiu Jie left, Ding Yi sat there expressionless and began to ponder.
After a long pause, he suddenly grinned, then touched his forehead and laughed self-deprecatingly:
"I was overthinking it. In this kind of environment, why bother with danger? If you have the lifespan but don't improve your strength, what's the difference between that and suicide?"
Thinking of this, Ding Yi took out the Flowing Sand Map from his pocket and glanced at it. Finding nothing unusual, he waved his hand, and a large pile of materials flew out from the box next to him.
These are all auxiliary materials sent by the Blood Tower to make the Ascension Ointment. Although Ding Yi didn't know what they were, he figured they must all be precious items.
Ding Yi first opened his mouth and spat out a ball of spiritual fire, enveloping all the auxiliary materials. Then, controlling the temperature, he burned all the auxiliary materials into a black, hard lump.
Immediately afterwards, Ding Yi crushed the hard lump, then mixed it with water and kneaded it into the shape of a pill.
Finally, Ding Yi wrote the inscription "The Five Elements Heaven-Mending Scripture, Minor Success, No Side Effects" on it with a brush.
The next moment, a line of text appeared before Ding Yi's eyes.
[Currently available for enhancement; enhancement requires a lifespan of 7156 years. Enhance now?]
Ding Yi breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the words before him.
Over the past few months, he has been working day and night to strengthen the absorption of the five elements materials, which has also shortened the lifespan of the Five Elements Heaven-Mending Scripture.
The original lifespan was over nine thousand years, but now it only needs to be over seven thousand years, which is already quite impressive.
However, Ding Yi's lifespan is only a little over seven thousand years at this moment, so this enhancement can be considered a real all-in gamble.
"Excellent! The sky is high and the air is crisp today, it's the perfect time for my cultivation to advance even further!"
Ding Yi felt relieved and let out a low laugh before directly selecting "yes".
The next moment, the dark pill in Ding Yi's hand was enveloped by a white light, and at the same time, an unusual fragrance slowly emanated from the white light in Ding Yi's hand.
Upon seeing this, Ding Yi immediately waved his hand, and the Evergreen Domain instantly enveloped the entire cave, confining the fragrance within the main cave.
The next moment, Ding Yi waved his hand again, and the nuclear sword instantly flew up and landed directly at the entrance of the cave leading to Zhu Jiu Jie.
puff!
The nuclear sword, weighing a full 120,000 jin (60,000 kg), was driven directly into the ground, standing there like an iron gate.
Seeing this, Ding Yi tossed the pill in his hand into his mouth, sat cross-legged on the futon, and closed his eyes slightly.
