This output is a bit exaggerated.\" Even though Ning Zhuo didn't know much about the Void Spider species, evaluating it from market value alone, he couldn't help but click his tongue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could it be that he possesses some natural talent that can accelerate self-production?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo was just guessing and couldn't ask in detail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was his first meeting with Che Zhuzi; if he really asked, it would be an offense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo chose to believe. Because there was no need to deceive, and Che Zhuzi, such a shrewd person who could live in the Myriad Phenomena Sect for such a long time, must value his business reputation very much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since that’s the case, I’ll order sixty pieces first.\" Ning Zhuo said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Che Zhuzi hadn't realized the scale of this business yet, and still said with a self-satisfied smile: \"What quality?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his view, Ning Zhuo was a Foundation Establishment cultivator and should be using Foundation Establishment-level treasure materials. Of course, if he wanted to pursue quantity, it was normal for Foundation Establishment cultivators to use Qi Refining-level materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo said indifferently: \"Of course, Jin Dan quality. If Senior can produce Nascent Soul level, and the price is feasible, I will also purchase it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he could use high-level ones, he would naturally use high-level ones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Che Zhuzi was secretly shocked, his face changed slightly, staring at Ning Zhuo, confirming: \"Sixty pieces of Jin Dan-level void spider silk, are you sure?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo nodded: \"Of course. This is the deposit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying that, he took out a Ghost Dao Jin Dan and handed it directly to Che Zhuzi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jin, Jin Dan?!\" Che Zhuzi’s eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo showed financial power and also showed strength!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Dan...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Che Zhuzi himself was only a Jin Dan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which family’s Foundation Establishment cultivator trades by directly taking a Jin Dan as a deposit?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, Che Zhuzi really wanted to ask Ning Zhuo: \"Who exactly are you? Where is your family?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His evaluation of Ning Zhuo in his heart rose rapidly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tried hard to calm his heart and stabilize his expression, and also said \"indifferently\": \"Just sixty pieces of Jin Dan-level void spider silk... this Jin Dan is the full payment, and it is enough.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo was surprised for a moment, then apologized: \"Oh, Senior, it’s me who didn't explain clearly, blame me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I said, sixty pieces per month.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Che Zhuzi couldn't stabilize anymore, staring at Ning Zhuo in surprise: \"Sixty pieces per month, are you sure? How long will it last?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo shrugged slightly: \"Let’s order for one year first, is that okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Che Zhuzi’s brows furrowed, pondering in his heart: \"Although my production surged seventeen times, I cannot produce continuously.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Producing seventeen Jin Dan-level spider silks every day will be very exhausting. If it lasts for a long time, it will damage essence and blood, origin, and even shorten life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sixty pieces of void spider silk per month, if I go all out, it will take at least four days. But in fact, I definitely cannot go all out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"According to normal content, it will take six days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How many six days are there in a month?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Che Zhuzi felt a bit tricky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was not just Ning Zhuo’s only customer; in fact, Ning Zhuo was a latecomer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Che Zhuzi had maintained long-term buying and selling relationships with other buyers, the business was very stable, and the output covered the needs of these buyers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Ning Zhuo was now coming from behind, aggressively inserting himself. Seeing Che Zhuzi fall into thought, Ning Zhuo decisively added: \"Senior Che Zhuzi, do you think the deposit is not enough?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It doesn't matter, I can add some more.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying that, he took out another Ghost Dao Jin Dan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Che Zhuzi’s heart shook again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo took out the Jin Dan as if taking out ordinary pills; this was too relaxed and freehand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So rich and imposing, he must be a big customer in the future!\" Che Zhuzi’s heartbeat accelerated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was interrupted by Ning Zhuo, and if it were before, he might have been a bit angry, but now he was full of smiles, and hurriedly said: \"Two Jin Dans as a deposit, enough, more than enough!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo was even more straightforward than him, directly urging: \"Then let’s sign the contract first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the Spider-Silk Lady’s gaze, the two successfully signed the contract.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll take my leave, Senior Che Zhuzi.\" Ning Zhuo turned and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This business was not small, and the prospects were great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Che Zhuzi hurriedly spoke: \"Little friend Ning Zhuo, no rush. We hit it off at first sight, why not let me prepare and drink some fine wine together?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo shook his head: \"I have things to do. Senior Che Zhuzi, when there is time in the future, it will not be too late for us to talk again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Che Zhuzi was rejected, but instead, there were more smiles on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He personally sent Ning Zhuo out of the cave dwelling: \"Don't call me Senior, we can treat each other as peers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s fine too.\" Ning Zhuo nodded, accepting it very naturally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This casual attitude was seen by Che Zhuzi, and he couldn't help but guess: It seems that Ning Zhuo’s identity is indeed not simple; Jin Dan cultivators are not special to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Che Zhuzi felt more and more that his making friends with Ning Zhuo was a correct decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Ning Zhuo was about to leave, he suddenly said to Che Zhuzi: \"Fellow Daoist Che Zhuzi, I have a proposal, you might consider it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If Ban Ji seeks to buy void spider silk from you, please refuse him across the board.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And I will purchase the corresponding quantity at a 50% premium to make up for your loss.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you think?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sharp light flashed in Che Zhuzi’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew Ning Zhuo’s deep meaning—he wanted him, Che Zhuzi, to choose a side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This does need consideration.\" Che Zhuzi did not refuse immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a short time, Ning Zhuo showed his strength, which had already changed his thoughts when he first communicated with Ning Zhuo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo returned to the Blue Stone Cave Dwelling and first interrogated the Spider-Silk Lady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spider-Silk Lady was dejected on the ground, crying and begging: First, she praised Ning Zhuo as a model of the righteous path, a moral gentleman, forcing a weak woman to act as a slave, what kind of thing is that? If she was let go, she would definitely turn over a new leaf and repay him later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo nodded, smiling, praising her attitude of admitting mistakes, and asked about Ban Ji’s plan to deal with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spider-Silk Lady’s expression was sincere, swearing that as long as Ning Zhuo let her go, she would tell everything she knew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo’s smile became even brighter: \"Is the big lady bullying me for being young and ignorant?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spider-Silk Lady had watched from the sidelines before, the verbal confrontation between Ning Zhuo and Che Zhuzi. She hurriedly expressed her determination to seek death rather than freedom if she were let go, and also told Ning Zhuo that she had a treasure location, and if he let her go, she would take Ning Zhuo to open various secret treasures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo: \"If I search your soul, wouldn't I know?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spider-Silk Lady widened her tearful eyes and shook her head hurriedly: \"Young Master Ning, you are a new star of the righteous path, how could you use demon means like soul searching?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If this is exposed, it will be too much of a drag on your reputation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are kind-hearted, just scaring me, wanting to guide me to be good. I am also willing to have you guide me—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of this, the Spider-Silk Lady looked at Ning Zhuo charmingly, and then crawled forward a few steps, wanting to lean against Ning Zhuo’s calf.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo snorted coldly, impatient to deal with the Spider-Silk Lady like this anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He kicked the Spider-Silk Lady to the ground, and scolded with a face full of righteousness: \"You sinful demon cultivator, what kind of morality are you talking about with scum like you? Isn't that too pedantic?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just ask you, when you designed to harm me, did you require yourself to talk about morality like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spider-Silk Lady hurriedly cried: \"Young Master, I was just instigated by others, that Ban Ji gave me a lot of money, I—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo waved his hand: \"Shut up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spider-Silk Lady immediately stopped, wailing and unable to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo sneered: \"Look, you are speechless, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spider-Silk Lady’s pupils shrank, staring at Ning Zhuo fiercely, so angry that her face was bloody, roaring in her heart: \"If you have the ability, don't use the slave contract to control me, let me speak, ah ah ah!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You are a young boy, a new star of the righteous path, how can you be so shameless?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo gave the final ultimatum: \"I won't waste time with you, this is the final ultimatum, confess honestly, so as not to suffer physical pain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spider-Silk Lady then restrained her sorrow, sneered at Ning Zhuo: \"Young Master, you have the slave contract in your hand. Why don't you use this contract to force me to tell the truth?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without waiting for Ning Zhuo to answer, the Spider-Silk Lady answered herself: \"Yes, you are right to worry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After we accepted Ban Ji’s commission, we signed a contract. Once the inside story is leaked, we will suffer backlash and die.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even if you use soul-searching techniques, you won't get what you want.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't forget, I am a demon cultivator!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As a demon cultivator, how could I not make preparations for soul-searching?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m not afraid to tell you, I have long used means to practice my soul, can resist soul-searching, and when I reach a critical moment, my soul will explode, even if my soul flies away, I won't let the enemy succeed!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of this, the Spider-Silk Lady showed a fierce look, finally showing the style of a demon cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo fell into silence, just staring at the Spider-Silk Lady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few breaths, he said indifferently: \"You say you can resist soul-searching? I don't know which one you can resist?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For example, Soul-Binding Thread-Pulling, Three Soul Spinning Wheel, Soul-Feeding Demon? Or Soul-Seed Spirit Fetus, Soul Cicada Molting, Human Candle Sacrifice? Or Soul-Makeup Mirror View, Soul-Tracing Sutra, Dream-Drawing Soul Paste?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo listed them like family treasures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If these don't work, you can also use Nine Nether Bone-Asking Bell, Affection-Pulling Puppet Guide, Marrow-Heart Ghost Firefly, Resentful Puppet Same-Heart Tribulation, etc.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These means all have the wonderful use of soul-searching.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Which one can you resist?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spider-Silk Lady was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her Adam’s apple rolled, and she subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva. The shock and questioning color filled her eyes looking at Ning Zhuo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why are you so familiar with these soul-searching techniques?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are you a demon cultivator, or am I?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spider-Silk Lady felt deep coldness from Ning Zhuo’s smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo secretly thanked the contribution of Heaven Frost, one of the two ghosts of heaven and earth, in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two fell into silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spider-Silk Lady could only bet that Ning Zhuo was bluffing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Ning Zhuo was indeed like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he knew these soul-searching techniques, he had not truly mastered them, so he could not do anything to the Spider-Silk Lady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can use the 'Human Life Hanging Threads' divine ability, combined with the slave contract... but the real key is the possible secret-keeping contract.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I need to find the complete content of this contract, then find the flaws or loopholes, and then choose to use a certain soul-searching technique.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Like picking a lock, avoiding backlash, and then opening the door to her memory storage for me to read.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When thinking of this, Ning Zhuo suddenly felt a shock in his body and mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So that’s how it is!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flash of spiritual light flashed in his spirit sea, but it was bringing up old things, allowing him to capture an extremely critical assumption.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before, when this spiritual light appeared, Ning Zhuo had an abnormal feeling because of Ban Ji, which interrupted the capture of the spiritual light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, he captured the Spider-Silk Lady and thought of soul-searching techniques, triggering the previous inspiration again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Soul-searching technique, soul-searching technique is the key!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Zhuo was so excited that he could hardly restrain himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to this assumption of his, he might very well have an extreme qualitative change in his cultivation because of soul-searching techniques.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ban Ji and the Spider-Silk Lady’s affairs were directly thrown behind Ning Zhuo’s head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want to study soul-searching techniques with all my might!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cloud Soul Valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heaven Frost stood on the edge of the cliff, his tattered clothes being torn by the gale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A fierce battle was coming to an end, Heaven Frost was defeated, and the winner was Earth Gray.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earth Gray cast a spell and shouted at him: \"Heaven Frost, wake up!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heaven Frost reacted as if he had been electrocuted, reached out and grabbed his cheeks, and then pulled outward fiercely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few breaths, he pulled a ghost mask off his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am Heaven Frost, I am Heaven Frost!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am not an Earth Ghost!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the ghost mask left his body, Heaven Frost’s mind was much clearer, and he understood who he really was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earth Gray saw that his mind had recovered, breathed a sigh of relief, and walked over slowly: \"Heaven Frost, why did you continue the Different Soul Same Heart Art for so long?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heaven Frost was covered in cold sweat, shook his head powerlessly, and sighed deeply: \"I was a bit too eager for quick success.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earth Gray also sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the battle of Thousand Peaks Forest, Heaven Frost had suffered a huge loss and had been unable to calm down, being quite anxious in all aspects, eager for quick success.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Different Soul Same Heart Art is fine.
