The delicate and charming voice was like strands of silk, drifting in the surroundings, falling into the ears, seeping into the soul, making one instinctively feel a bit rippled.

Xu Qing frowned and looked at Li Youfei.

Li Youfei was stunned and hurriedly shook his head, blurting out.

"I'm not anymore... I haven't been for a long time, it was gone when I was in Qi Condensation."

The mud fox scanned Li Youfei with disdain and spoke calmly.

"Where did this dirty thing come from!"

After saying that, she continued to aim at Xu Qing, her eyes revealing a hint of charm; she seemed to see through Xu Qing's disguise and spoke softly.

"To think you are so handsome, making people's hearts flutter."

Between her words, this mud fox stood up. When she walked down from the shrine, her body swayed, and she actually turned into a charming young woman.

The surging twin peaks set off waves as she walked, and the gourd-like waistline was incomparably slender, matched with the lifted buttocks, making Li Youfei gasp, his heartbeat accelerating instinctively, secretly calling her a monster.

Especially that half-covered red gauze, which seemed to slide off at any time on her body.

And the crystalline skin, the curvaceous figure, in that swaying, carried a meaning that made people want to kiss her, as if she could be planted in someone else's heart and take root.

Xu Qing's gaze was cold; he saw that this monster also had Nascent Soul cultivation. At this moment, the shadow under her feet had already dispersed, and just then, the woman who walked down from the shrine paused and stepped lightly on the ground.

The shadow trembled and rolled back. Xu Qing's gaze froze.

The woman licked her lips and spoke with a smile.

"Young Master, although we are both Nascent Soul, you don't understand my background and origin, and I don't want to use power to suppress people, nor do I want to use force on such a lovable little cutie like you; that would be too much of a damper on the mood."

"So, we can discuss everything."

"Name your price."

Xu Qing was silent. This was the first time he had encountered such a thing, and Ling'er was already poking her head out from his collar, her cheeks puffed up in anger, her eyes filled with ferocity, and the scales on her body had exploded.

She stared at the woman fixedly.

The woman ignored Ling'er, her gaze sweeping down from Xu Qing's face until she saw his soles, then raised them to meet Xu Qing's gaze, unable to help but lick her lips.

"Big sister won't treat you badly."

Saying that, she took out a gourd, shook it, and spoke.

"There are nine Soul-Easing Pills here; there were originally ten, but someone bought one with twenty Red Heaven Fire Crystals last time. However, they can all be given to you; what do you think?"

Xu Qing was stunned.

The woman looked at Xu Qing's expression, and her heart became even hotter. She waved her hand and took out a silver bone, speaking with a smile.

"This is a bone pill of an Ancient Xiang Linger Clan powerhouse; it's very good for that little snake of yours. Do you want it?"

Ling'er was also stunned, then gritted her teeth and continued to glare, resisting the urge to look at the bone.

The woman chuckled, thought for a moment, and took out another item. This was actually a golden human organ, in the shape of a crescent moon, looking like a kidney.

"This is a treasure. A madman once bit the Red Mother, and then his body was dismembered. Someone gave this kidney to me. If Young Master agrees to accompany me for a few days, you can take it and eat it afterward to make up for the deficiency in your body."

Xu Qing looked at this kidney and was stunned again.

Ling'er was nervous.

Li Youfei was bewildered; he suddenly envied Xu Qing infinitely.

Seeing that Xu Qing didn't respond, the woman sighed.

"The young don't know the goodness of big sister, mistaking a little snake for a treasure."

"Forget it, Young Master, keep your Yuan Yang well. If you think it through in the future, you can come here to find me at any time. Our transaction is always valid."

The woman said, turning around and swaying her waist, showing her seductive back to the fullest, walking to the shrine, turning back into a mud fox, while the surrounding mud people remained expressionless from beginning to end, carrying the shrine and continuing forward.

Cold winds blew, and they passed through the valley, disappearing without a trace.

The valley was silent.

Xu Qing raised his head, looking at the place where the mud fox disappeared, a glimmer of deep thought in his eyes.

Ling'er looked at Xu Qing nervously, and Li Youfei didn't know what to say on the side. His heart was infinitely complex; he felt that every day since he left the Qing Sand Desert had been bizarre.

"Xu Qing brother..." Ling'er spoke in a low voice.

"There is no curse on her body," Xu Qing said calmly.

As soon as his words came out, Ling'er breathed a sigh of relief, and Li Youfei's heart shook when he heard this.

"Master, you mean... she is from the Outer Domain?"

Xu Qing shook his head. This mud fox came too suddenly, and he couldn't distinguish for a moment whether the other party was really passing by or came here specifically.

Especially the items the other party took out, each of which was extraordinary. The Soul-Easing Pill she mentioned being bought made Xu Qing hesitate; he didn't know if it was the one he exchanged in the Reverse Moon Hall.

And that kidney...

Xu Qing hesitated, but no matter what, this was no longer a place to stay, so he turned and flickered, galloping in the opposite direction. Li Youfei hurriedly followed behind, and soon they left the valley.

Time passed, and half a month soon went by.

During this half month, Xu Qing had been on the road according to the parrot's instructions, but every day he would set aside some time to study Li Youfei, gaining inspiration for refining pills from his body, and then trying to modify the Soul-Easing Pill.

Li Youfei was very nervous at first, but as the days went by, he gradually became indifferent.

Taking several Soul-Easing Pills every day made him feel that selling himself many times wouldn't be enough to buy one.

Since that was the case, he accepted it.

And the reason he left the Bitter Life Mountain Range, Xu Qing had also asked about during this half month, knowing that the other party had offended an ancestor of the Bitter Life Mountain Range.

"That Mo Gui ancestor has Void Returning cultivation and is the number one powerhouse among the loose cultivators in the Bitter Life Mountain Range. He plays both sides between the Divine Hall and the Reverse Moon Hall, and his days are quite comfortable."

"In order to complete the Reverse Moon Hall's assessment, I had no choice but to kill his disciple..."

Thinking of this, Li Youfei secretly looked at Xu Qing and sighed. He felt he was very disadvantaged; although he killed the person, he didn't get the corpse back.

The reason he secretly peeked at Xu Qing was because he saw that Xu Qing had the corpses of divine slaves during this half month, which were exactly the two divine slaves who chased him in the white wind.

These two corpses were also Xu Qing's research objects. Occasionally, when he encountered bottlenecks in his thoughts while researching Li Youfei, he would take them out and start dissecting.

As time passed, the dissection methods became sharper and sharper. Sometimes he would dig out the internal organs and open them up bit by bit to check; sometimes he would break the bones to check the bone marrow.

Every time, he was covered in dark blood.

Xu Qing also discovered a characteristic of the divine slave cultivators, which was that their internal organs existed with varying degrees of erosion. Although the curse in their bodies became faith, it was clearly not thorough.

"I wonder about the Xiang Linger Severing divine servants?"

Xu Qing pondered.

Every time this happened, Li Youfei would tremble. Although the corpses Xu Qing dissected wouldn't make any screams, Li Youfei witnessed it with his own eyes every time, and the sense of tension in his heart became intense again involuntarily.

He felt that he was also a cruel person, but compared to the Master, he was simply not worth mentioning, and what he feared most was worrying whether the Master would one day have the idea of researching his corpse.

In this trembling fear, they were getting closer and closer to the Si Yin Changhe in the west, and Xu Qing's Soul-Easing Pill had also perfected the last trace of flaws.

At this moment, on a mountain top one month away from the Si Yin Changhe, Li Youfei lay there in a coma.

Xu Qing, who had just finished his research, looked at the unconscious Li Youfei, noticed that his vital signs were normal, and didn't pay much attention to it, instead looking at the pill he had refined, his expression filled with satisfaction.

This pill was refined by Xu Qing with the help of Li Youfei's strange body, combined with the research inside and outside the two divine slave corpses, and finally improved.

Its appearance was not much different from an ordinary Soul-Easing Pill, also colorful, but if you look closely, you will find that its color contains white, so the overall color is slightly lighter.

But its medicinal effect has undergone earth-shaking changes.

It is no longer limited to alleviating the torment of the curse eruption, but can actually reduce the curse!

If the amount of curse in a person's body is quantified as ten thousand, then after taking this Soul-Easing Pill, the curse will become nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine.

Although the reduction is very small and hard to detect, this is an unprecedented pioneering breakthrough.

Because the reduced curse is permanent!

Its fundamental principle is based on antibodies, permanently reducing it, and its secondary effect is to alleviate the pain of the curse eruption.

However, side effects still exist, consuming a certain amount of vitality, but compared to ordinary Soul-Easing Pills, the consumption is much less, and the easing power has also increased accordingly.

"But it's a pity that only when taking it for the first time will the curse be reduced. Taking it afterward can only alleviate the pain. After all, the curse is alive and will adjust itself to this."

Xu Qing felt a bit regretful in his heart, but he also understood that this kind of thing is difficult to achieve in one go. This pill still needs to be improved time and time again, and he also needs more curse information.

"Also, if I could research a Xiang Linger Severing divine servant..."

Xu Qing pondered. He felt that there must be other mysteries in the bodies of Xiang Linger Severing divine servant cultivators.

"And the herbs in the Sacrifice Moon Great Domain are too few. I remember there are some herbs in the forbidden zones that are rich in strange substances. If the medicinal properties are fused, perhaps it can provide better ideas for my improved Soul-Easing Pill."

Xu Qing thought for a moment, controlled the shadow to cover the unconscious Li Youfei, making him sleep deeper, then checked the surroundings to ensure it was safe, took out the mirror, flickered, and stepped into the Reverse Moon Hall.

It had been a long time since he came. This time, when he appeared at the shrine, Xu Qing was slightly uncomfortable. After a while, he walked down. The moment he pushed open the shrine door, the blue sky and bright light made his eyes narrow slightly, and he instinctively looked into the distance.

That was... the direction of the shrine he went to exchange for the Soul-Easing Pill with Heaven Fire Crystals.

Thinking of that mud fox, Xu Qing was vigilant in his heart. No matter if it was a coincidence, he felt that his previous judgment of the Reverse Moon Hall was not wrong.

The people in this Reverse Moon Hall are indeed not simple.

So he didn't leave his shrine. After sensing here, he waved his hand, and a piece of light scattered from the shrine, gathering in front of him, turning into a light group like other shrines.

After checking, Xu Qing took out the improved Soul-Easing Pill and put it into the light group.

Then he released the items he needed inside.

"One hundred drops of Xiang Linger Severing divine servant blood."

Xu Qing didn't set an outrageous price. For him, refining this Soul-Easing Pill was very easy; after all, he had fed Li Youfei nearly two hundred of them.

What he wanted was to improve his pill refining as quickly as possible.

According to his understanding over the past period, once someone completes it after he releases it, they can exchange it themselves, and when he returns, he can take the items he needs.

"I hope it can be faster."

Xu Qing murmured in his heart, returned to the shrine after releasing it, and left here.

After appearing on the mountain top, he patted Li Youfei awake and continued on his way.

Just like that, a day passed.

The next day, in the Reverse Moon Hall, the big man, Xu Qing's neighbor, pushed open the door and walked out.

The bare-chested and bare-breasted style, the stone ribbons on his body, and the awe-inspiring expression made him look magnificent in the sunlight.

"It's finally quiet for this period of time."

He, who likes to come to the Reverse Moon Hall every day, enjoys the sunshine of the Reverse Moon Hall very much. He feels that when he is here, he is truly alive, while the so-called reality is something he doesn't want to return to many times.

After all, the gloom and suffering in reality will constantly remind him of the tragedy of his own fate.

There are quite a few people like him, and most of them like to stay here.

However, the Reverse Moon Hall has rules for this, so even if he is unwilling, he still has to return to reality every few days.

This is also why he feels that Xu Qing's place is noisy and why he glares at him many times.

There are not many moments of enjoyment, and if there is continuous roaring to disturb, anyone would feel annoyed.

After walking out at this moment, feeling the rare peace, the big man stretched, and was about to go out for a stroll, but his peripheral vision swept over Xu Qing's shrine next to him, noticing that there was a light group shining there, and the big man's eyebrows raised slightly.

"That hateful guy who likes to play mystery has started selling things?"

The big man was not too surprised, sneered, and revealed disdain in his eyes.

In his memory, the owner of that shrine appeared mysterious every time, and almost never communicated with others.

He glared many times, and the other party would dodge and fly away quickly upon seeing it, like a frightened rabbit.

"Fine, let's go and see what kind of trash this guy is selling for the first time, and take this opportunity to see what kind of quality this person is."

The big man had been dissatisfied with his neighbor Xu Qing for a long time. So he flickered and arrived outside Xu Qing's shrine, swept his eyes over the mottled bronze tripod without any incense, sneered, and walked into Xu Qing's shrine swaggeringly.

After stepping in, he looked at the motionless statue on the shrine with disdain, swept over the only light group floating in mid-air, and raised his hand to grab the light group very casually.

"Let's see what kind of trash the first thing this guy sells is."

But the moment his hand touched the light group, the big man's originally calm expression changed instantly.

His eyes widened instantly, and his whole body seemed to be struck by a large amount of heavenly thunder. His mind roared instantly, and his body paused there suddenly.

His eyes opened wide in an instant, his whole body as if bombarded by a large amount of heavenly thunder. His brain churned instantly, and his body paused violently there.
