Chapter 609: Re-entering the Spirit God Ring

In a dim great hall.

An old man and a youth stood one behind the other.

The old man looked ahead, a look of deep thought on his face, as if pondering something.

The youth looked at the old man's back, a look of unease on his face.

The great hall was silent.

A moment later.

The old man came back to his senses, looked at the youth, and said in a faint voice, "Wuji, you have disappointed me too much."

Jiang Wuji's expression shifted, then a look of ruthlessness appeared, "Grandfather, do not worry. I will definitely make Jiang Shan and that Wang Jianqiang pay back the debt of today twofold."

Hearing this, the Great Elder shook his head, "You still do not understand."

"Wuji, I do not oppose you colluding with Yuan Fei to deal with Jiang Shan and that Wang Jianqiang."

"But your mistake was not keeping yourself clean."

"Now that your collusion with Yuan Fei has been exposed, given Jiang Yunhai's temperament, he will surely be able to guess the deal between me and the Yuan Family."

"Originally, the Yuan Family's asking price was too high, and I was prepared to wear them down."

"But because of this mess you made, I am forced to accelerate my plans."

Hearing this, Jiang Wuji's face turned pale, "Grandfather, I..."

Knock, knock, knock~

Before Jiang Wuji could finish his sentence, a series of knocks suddenly came from the door.

The Great Elder's expression shifted, and he said faintly, "Come in."

As the Great Elder's voice fell, the hall doors opened.

A figure walked in.

The person who arrived was a middle-aged man.

After walking into the great hall, he bowed to the Great Elder, "Greetings, Great Elder."

The Great Elder nodded, "Jiang Mu, you are supposed to be guarding the Treasure Pavilion; what business do you have coming to find me?"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man continued, "Reporting to the Great Elder, just a moment ago, Jiang Shan entered the Treasure Pavilion holding the Head of Household Token and took away all the remaining Moon Spirit Essence stored within, totaling forty-eight drops."

Hearing this, the Great Elder raised an eyebrow.

"Grandfather, it is Wang Jianqiang."

Jiang Wuji looked at the Great Elder, his expression gloomy, "Wang Jianqiang has always wanted Moon Spirit Essence; the drop of Moon Spirit Essence that Jiang Shan applied for previously was meant to be given to Wang Jianqiang."

"Wang Jianqiang must have paid some kind of price to persuade Jiang Yunhai."

The Great Elder looked at Jiang Wuji, a look of contemplation on his face.

A moment later, he said to Jiang Wuji, "Wuji, how much do you know about that Wang Jianqiang?"

Jiang Wuji thought for a moment, "Wang Jianqiang is like Jiang Xuan, both are Dahuang Immortal Palace Students, and there is a high probability he is a Fifth-tier High-grade Alchemist. The high-quality Pills from the Qian Yu Trading Firm previously were improved by him."

The Great Elder's expression tightened.

A Fifth-tier High-grade Alchemist?

Such a young Fifth-tier High-grade Alchemist!

And he comes from the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace!

His brows slowly furrowed.

To the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace, a Fifth-tier High-grade Alchemist might not be considered too precious.

But such a young Fifth-tier High-grade Alchemist is different.

If this child does not perish halfway, he will definitely be able to become a Sixth-tier Alchemist, and even has a great hope of reaching the Seventh-Rank.

Such talent.

Even in the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace, where geniuses are as numerous as clouds, he must be a top-tier existence, valued by the experts of the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace.

If he were to die in the Jiang Family.

The experts of the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace would likely not let the matter rest easily.

A moment later.

His tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed.

The Great Wilderness Immortal Palace claims to be absolutely neutral.

The prerequisite for them to stand up for a student is that the student must remain neutral when an incident occurs and cannot participate in any factional struggles.

Wang Jianqiang has been mixing with Jiang Shan and helping the Qian Yu Trading Firm with the Improved Pill Formula; he has already participated in the internal struggles of the Jiang Family.

So what if he is killed?

The Great Wilderness Immortal Palace would have nothing to say.

Thinking of this.

A cold sneer appeared on his face.

Jiang Yunhai would gift all of the Jiang Family's remaining Moon Spirit Essence to Wang Jianqiang.

He must be trying to exchange for some goodwill from this future Alchemical Grandmaster.

It is just a pity.

Whether it is Jiang Yunhai or that Wang Jianqiang.

They are destined to have no future.

After obtaining the Moon Spirit Essence, Wang Jianqiang returned to her home with Jiang Xuan.

After meeting her parents.

Jiang Xuan recounted the events of the day to his parents in detail.

When Jiang Xuan's parents heard that Wang Jianqiang could refine Sixth-tier Intermediate foundation-restoring Pills, they both revealed expressions of shock, followed immediately by a burst of excitement.

Jiang Xuan's mother was even more excited than his father, pulling Wang Jianqiang along to offer endless thanks and praise.

It made Wang Jianqiang feel quite embarrassed.

With great difficulty, he finally escaped from Jiang Xuan's mother's enthusiasm and hurried back to his room.

He let out a long sigh of relief.

He took out the Pill Formula and the Medicinal Herb that Jiang Yunhai had prepared for him.

"Ding, inferior Pill Formula detected. Optimization and upgrade require the consumption of Cultivation Points. Do you wish to optimize and upgrade?"

Hearing the amount of Cultivation Points required for the optimization and upgrade, he couldn't help but grimace.

He glanced at his remaining Cultivation Points.

Ever since he was attacked by the experts from the Piaoxue Trading Firm last time and exhausted his Cultivation Points.

He had specifically asked Jiang Shan to help collect a large amount of low-level Spirit Mineral, and whenever he had time, he would accumulate Cultivation Points through the method of artifact refining.

Now, he had only just barely managed to accumulate over twenty thousand points.

His pockets had just started to bulge, and he hadn't expected that he would have to go all-in again.

Although it pained him, it was, after all, for the sake of refining pills for Xuan'er's father, so the Cultivation Points that needed to be spent had to be spent.

Thinking of this.

He moved his consciousness.

"Yes."

"Ding, Bu Yuan Pill has been successfully optimized and upgraded to Perfect Bu Yuan Pill."

Wang Jianqiang examined the newly appeared Pill Formula in his mind, and then began the refining process.

Three days later.

He refined five Perfect Bu Yuan Pills.

After handing all five Perfect Bu Yuan Pills to Jiang Xuan's father, he returned to his room.

He thought for a moment.

With a movement of his consciousness, his figure flashed and disappeared.

Inside the Spirit God Ring.

Sensing Wang Jianqiang's arrival, Xiaobai's Soul Body manifested.

Compared to the last time he entered the Spirit God Ring, Xiaobai's Soul Body had become much more solidified.

It was as if she were a person with a physical body, rather than a Soul Body.

However, he could sense that Xiaobai's Soul Origin seemed to have suffered damage; although her soul power was strong, it occasionally revealed a sense of weakness.

His heart stirred.

He immediately thought of the scene when he was previously attacked by the experts from the Piaoxue Trading Firm.

It must have been that time when she channeled power to him that her soul was injured.

Thinking of this.

He waved his palm, and nine Jade Bottles flew in front of Xiaobai.

"This is..."

Xiaobai was stunned.

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "Moon Spirit Essence, it has the effect of cleansing the soul and will be of no small help to you in recovering your soul injuries and restoring your soul power."

Xiaobai moved her consciousness, and her Spirit Sense swept over the Jade Bottles in front of her.

She was then dumbfounded.

It really was Moon Spirit Essence.

And there was one drop in each Jade Bottle.

That is to say.

Wang Jianqiang had given her nine drops of Moon Spirit Essence all at once!

She naturally knew very well what Moon Spirit Essence was.

For her at her peak, this Moon Spirit Essence might not have counted for much.

But for her now...

Never mind nine drops, even a single drop was extremely rare.
