Chapter 732: Unlike Ning Zhuo: Shut up!

~14 min read 2,739 words

"One person can produce nearly twenty pieces of Void Spider Silk every day, and the quality reaches the Jin Dan level? This production volume is a bit exaggerated." Even though Unlike 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.

"Could it be that he possesses some kind of talent that can accelerate self-production?"

Unlike Ning Zhuo only guessed and didn't dare to ask in detail.

This was his first meeting with Che Zhuzi; if he really asked, it would be an offense.

Unlike Ning Zhuo chose to believe. Because there was no need to deceive, and Che Zhuzi, such a shrewd person, could live in the Wanxiang Sect for such a long time, must be very focused on business reputation.

"Since that's the case, I'll order sixty pieces first." Unlike Ning Zhuo said.

Che Zhuzi hadn't realized the scale of this business yet, and still smiled with self-satisfaction: "What quality?"

In his view, Unlike Ning Zhuo was a Foundation Establishment cultivator and should be using treasure materials of Foundation Establishment level. Of course, to pursue quantity, it was normal for Foundation Establishment cultivators to use materials of Qi Refining level.

Unlike Ning Zhuo said plainly: "Of course it's Jin Dan quality. If Senior can produce Yuan Ying level, and the price is feasible, I will also purchase them."

If he could use high-level ones, he would naturally use high-level ones.

Che Zhuzi was secretly shocked, his face changed slightly, staring at Unlike Ning Zhuo, confirming: "Sixty pieces of Jin Dan level Void Spider Silk, are you sure?"

Unlike Ning Zhuo nodded: "Of course. This is the deposit."

Saying this, he took out a Ghost Dao Jin Dan and handed it directly to Che Zhuzi.

"Jin, Jin Dan?!" Che Zhuzi's eyes widened.

Unlike Ning Zhuo showed financial power, and also showed strength!

Jin Dan...

Che Zhuzi himself was only a Jin Dan.

Which family's Foundation Establishment cultivator trades by directly taking a Jin Dan as a deposit?

In an instant, Che Zhuzi really wanted to ask Unlike Ning Zhuo: "Who exactly are you? Where is your family from?"

He quickly raised his evaluation of Unlike Ning Zhuo in his heart.

He tried hard to calm his heart lake, stabilize his expression, and also said "plainly": "Just sixty pieces of Jin Dan level Void Spider Silk, this Jin Dan is the full payment, and it's enough."

Unlike Ning Zhuo was stunned, then apologized: "Oh, Senior, it's me who didn't explain clearly, my fault!"

"I said, sixty pieces per month."

Che Zhuzi couldn't stabilize anymore, staring at Unlike Ning Zhuo in surprise: "Sixty pieces per month, are you sure? How long will it last?"

Unlike Ning Zhuo shrugged slightly: "Let's order for one year first, is that okay?"

Che Zhuzi frowned, thinking in his heart: "Although my production capacity soared seventeen times, to truly produce continuously, it's not possible."

"Producing seventeen pieces of Jin Dan level spider silk every day will be very exhausting. If it lasts for a long time, it will damage essence, blood, and origin, and even shorten life."

"Sixty pieces of Void Spider Silk per month, I will go all out, and it will take at least four days. But in fact, I certainly can't go all out."

"According to the normal content, it will take six days."

"How many six days are there in a month?"

Che Zhuzi felt a bit tricky.

He wasn't just Unlike Ning Zhuo's client; in fact, Unlike Ning Zhuo was a latecomer.

Che Zhuzi had maintained long-term trading relationships with other buyers, and the business was very stable, and the production covered the needs of these buyers.

But Unlike Ning Zhuo now came from behind and forcefully inserted himself. Seeing Che Zhuzi fall into thought, Unlike Ning Zhuo decisively added: "Senior Che Zhuzi, do you feel the deposit is not enough?"

"It doesn't matter, I can add some more, it doesn't matter."

Saying this, he took out another Ghost Dao Jin Dan.

Che Zhuzi's heart shook again.

Unlike Ning Zhuo took out Jin Dan as if taking out ordinary pills; this was too relaxed and easy.

"So rich and imposing, he will definitely be a big customer in the future!" Che Zhuzi's heart beat faster.

He was interrupted by Unlike Ning Zhuo, and if it were before, he might have been a bit angry, but now he was full of smiles, and said hurriedly: "Two Jin Dan as a deposit, enough, more than enough!"

Unlike Ning Zhuo was even more straightforward than him, directly urging: "Then let's sign the contract first."

Under Pan Si Niangzi's gaze, the two successfully signed the contract.

"I'll take my leave first, Senior Che Zhuzi." Unlike Ning Zhuo turned and left.

This business was not small, and the prospects were great.

Che Zhuzi hurriedly called out: "Little friend Unlike Ning Zhuo, no rush. We met as if we were old friends, why not let me prepare and drink some fine wine together?"

Unlike Ning Zhuo shook his head: "I still have things to do. Senior Che Zhuzi, when there is time in the future, we can talk again."

Che Zhuzi was rejected, but instead, there were more smiles on his face.

He personally sent Unlike Ning Zhuo out of the cave dwelling: "Don't call me Senior anymore, let's talk as equals."

"That works too." Unlike Ning Zhuo nodded and accepted it very naturally.

This casual attitude was seen by Che Zhuzi, and he couldn't help but guess: It seems Unlike Ning Zhuo's identity is indeed not simple, Jin Dan cultivators are not special to him.

Che Zhuzi felt more and more that making friends with Unlike Ning Zhuo was a correct decision.

When Unlike Ning Zhuo was about to leave, he suddenly said to Che Zhuzi: "Fellow Daoist Che Zhuzi, I have a proposal, you might want to consider it."

"If Ban Ji seeks to purchase Void Spider Silk from you, please refuse him across the board."

"And I will purchase the corresponding quantity at a 50% premium to make up for your loss."

"What do you think?"

A sharp light flashed in Che Zhuzi's eyes.

He knew Unlike Ning Zhuo's deep meaning—it was to make him, Che Zhuzi, choose a side.

"This indeed needs consideration." Che Zhuzi didn't refuse immediately.

In a short period of time, Unlike Ning Zhuo showed his strength, which had already changed his thoughts when he first communicated with Unlike Ning Zhuo.

Unlike Ning Zhuo returned to the Blue Stone Cave Dwelling and first interrogated Pan Si Niangzi.

Pan Si Niangzi slumped on the ground, crying and begging: First, she praised Unlike Ning Zhuo as a model of the righteous path, a moral gentleman, and asked what it meant to force a weak woman to act as a slave? If he let her go, she would definitely turn over a new leaf and repay him later.

Unlike Ning Zhuo nodded, smiling, praised her attitude of admitting mistakes, and asked about Ban Ji's plan to deal with him.

Pan Si Niangzi's expression was sincere, swearing that as long as Unlike Ning Zhuo let her go, she would tell everything she knew.

Unlike Ning Zhuo's smile became even brighter: "Is the big lady bullying me for being young and ignorant?"

Pan Si Niangzi had observed earlier the verbal confrontation between Unlike Ning Zhuo and Che Zhuzi. She tearfully and hurriedly expressed her determination to die rather than lose her freedom. At the same time, she told Unlike Ning Zhuo that she still had a treasure location, and if he let her go, she would take Unlike Ning Zhuo to open various secret treasures.

Unlike Ning Zhuo: "If I search your soul, wouldn't I know anyway?"

Pan Si Niangzi widened her tearful eyes and shook her head hurriedly: "Young Master Ning, you are a new star of the righteous path, how could you perform demonic means like soul searching?"

"If this is exposed, it will be too detrimental to your reputation."

"You are kind-hearted, just scaring me, wanting to guide me to be good. I am also willing to have you guide me—"

Speaking of this, Pan Si Niangzi looked at Unlike Ning Zhuo charmingly, then crawled forward a few steps, wanting to lean against Unlike Ning Zhuo's lower leg.

Unlike Ning Zhuo snorted coldly, impatient to deal with Pan Si Niangzi like this anymore.

He kicked Pan Si Niangzi to the ground, and scolded with a face full of righteousness: "You sinful demonic cultivator, what kind of morality are you talking about with scum like you? Isn't that extremely pedantic?"

"I just ask you, when you designed to harm me, did you require yourself to talk about morality like this?"

Pan Si Niangzi hurriedly cried: "Young Master, I was just instigated by others, that Ban Ji gave me a lot of money, I—"

Unlike Ning Zhuo waved his hand: "Shut up."

Pan Si Niangzi immediately stopped talking, whimpering, unable to say a word.

Unlike Ning Zhuo sneered: "Look, you're speechless, right?"

Pan Si Niangzi's pupils shrank, staring at Unlike Ning Zhuo fiercely, so angry that her face was bloody, roaring in her heart: "If you have the guts, don't use the slave contract to control me, let me speak, ah ah ah!"

You are a young boy, a new star of the righteous path, how can you be so shameless?!

Unlike Ning Zhuo issued a final ultimatum: "I won't waste time with you, this is the final ultimatum, confess honestly, to avoid physical pain."

Pan Si Niangzi then restrained her sorrowful appearance, sneered at Unlike Ning Zhuo: "Little Young Master, you have the slave contract in your hand. Why don't you use this contract to force me to tell the truth?"

Without waiting for Unlike Ning Zhuo to answer, Pan Si Niangzi answered herself: "Yes, you are right to worry."

"After we accepted Ban Ji's commission, we signed a contract. Once the inside story is leaked, we will suffer backlash and die."

"Even if you use soul-searching techniques, you won't get what you want."

"Don't forget, I am a demonic cultivator!"

"As a demonic cultivator, how could I not make preparations for soul-searching techniques?"

"And 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 self-destruct, even if my soul flies away and scatters, I won't let the enemy succeed!"

Pan Si Niangzi said this, revealing a fierce look, finally showing the style of a demonic cultivator.

Unlike Ning Zhuo fell into silence, just staring at Pan Si Niangzi.

After a few breaths, he said plainly: "You say you can resist soul-searching techniques? I wonder which kind you can resist?"

"For example, Soul-Binding Thread-Pulling, Three-Soul Spinning Wheel, Wan-Soul Feeding Demon? Or Soul-Seed Spirit Fetus, Soul Cicada Shedding, Human Candle Sacrifice? Or Soul-Makeup Mirror Observation, Trace Soul Sutra, Dream-Drawing Soul Paste?"

Unlike Ning Zhuo listed them like family treasures.

"If this doesn't work, you can also use Nine Nether Bone-Asking Bell, Affection-Pulling Puppet Guide, Marrow-Heart Ghost Firefly, Resentful Couple Same-Heart Tribulation, etc."

"These methods all have the wonderful use of soul-searching."

"Which one can you resist?"

Pan Si Niangzi was stunned by what she heard.

Her Adam's apple rolled, and she subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva. She looked at Unlike Ning Zhuo with shock and questioning in her eyes.

Why are you so familiar with these soul-searching techniques?

Are you the demonic cultivator, or am I?!

Pan Si Niangzi felt a deep chill from Unlike Ning Zhuo's smile.

Unlike Ning Zhuo silently thanked the contribution of Tian Shuang, one of the two ghosts of heaven and earth, in his heart.

The two fell into a silence.

Pan Si Niangzi could only bet that Unlike Ning Zhuo was bluffing.

And Unlike Ning Zhuo was indeed doing so.

Although he knew these soul-searching techniques, he hadn't truly mastered them, so he couldn't do anything to Pan Si Niangzi.

"I can use the 'Human Life Suspended Thread' divine ability, combined with the slave contract—but the real key is the secret-keeping contract that might exist."

"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."

"Like picking a lock, avoiding backlash, and then opening the door to her memory storage for me to browse."

When thinking of this, Unlike Ning Zhuo suddenly felt a shock in his body and mind.

"So that's how it is!"

A flash of inspiration flashed in his spirit sea, but it was an old matter brought up again, allowing him to capture a very critical assumption.

Previously, when this flash of inspiration appeared, Unlike Ning Zhuo had an unusual feeling because of Ban Ji, which interrupted the capture of the inspiration.

At this moment, he captured Pan Si Niangzi and thought of soul-searching techniques, which triggered the previous inspiration again.

"Soul-searching technique, soul-searching technique is the key!"

Unlike Ning Zhuo was so excited that he could hardly control himself.

According to this assumption of his, he might undergo an extreme qualitative change in his cultivation because of soul-searching techniques.

Ban Ji and Pan Si Niangzi's affairs were directly thrown to the back of Unlike Ning Zhuo's mind.

"I must study soul-searching techniques with all my might!"

Cloud Soul Valley.

Tian Shuang stood on the edge of the cliff, his tattered clothes being torn by the gale.

A fierce battle was coming to an end, Tian Shuang was defeated, and the winner was Di Hui.

Di Hui cast a spell and shouted at him: "Tian Shuang, wake up!"

Tian Shuang reacted as if he had been electrocuted, reached out and grabbed his cheeks, and then pulled them outward fiercely.

After a few breaths, he pulled a ghost mask off his face.

"I am Tian Shuang, I am Tian Shuang!"

"I am not an Earth Ghost!!"

After the ghost mask left his body, Tian Shuang's mind became much clearer, and he understood who he really was.

Di Hui saw that his mind had recovered, breathed a sigh of relief, and walked over slowly: "Tian Shuang, why did you continue the 'Different Soul Same Heart Art' for so long?"

Tian Shuang was covered in cold sweat, shook his head powerlessly, and sighed deeply: "I was a bit too eager for quick success."

Di Hui also sighed.

Ever since the battle of Thousand Peaks Forest, Tian Shuang had suffered a huge loss and had been unable to calm down, quite anxious in all aspects, eager for quick success.

"The 'Different Soul Same Heart Art' is fine. If you messed up, I could still cover for you."

"But you must never use the 'Burning Boat Crossing Soul Art'!" Di Hui warned.

Tian Shuang nodded: "I certainly understand this point, I am not ignorant and fearless to that extent."

Di Hui sighed, looking at the bottomless abyss below the cliff.

The abyss was steaming with mist that never dissipated all year round, and many gray-white clouds were twisted into many blurred human faces, flashing and disappearing in the thick fog.

Di Hui said: "This is a rare place for soul cultivation, and the cloud souls produced are unique. Tian Shuang, you have almost exhausted your family wealth, collect more here."

Tian Shuang had a look of lovelessness: "Can you stop mentioning this matter?!"

Di Hui laughed loudly.

Wanxiang Sect, Blue Stone Cave Dwelling.

Unlike Ning Zhuo stared at the jade slip: "Decided, I will learn the 'Burning Boat Crossing Soul Art'!"

This art was also a type of soul-searching technique, but the effect was extreme and domineering.

Once activated, it could make the target's soul burn, self-immolate, and turn into a fire boat.

The cultivator casting the spell would escape their soul, board the fire boat, and begin to cross themselves.

In this process, the fire boat would self-ignite, bringing countless impacts of memories.

The cultivator would passively accept various memories in the fire boat, as if they were the person involved, experiencing the life experience of others personally!

Therefore, all skills could be acquired by the person casting the spell.

But this method had huge drawbacks.

Because the power of soul-searching was too strong and the effect was too good, the cultivator casting the spell would likely forget themselves directly after experiencing the life of others. ===== CHAPTER 733 =====
