Chapter 309: Mutual Struggle

not greedy or biased. He handles affairs fairly, and those around him have all benefited greatly. This shows that he has an extraordinary mind. Even if you take him as an ally, he can also be your exc...“Old thing, if you have any benefits in mind, just thinking about taking them all for yourself, how is that possible” Xiao Sanniang said this, but she looked at Lu Xiaitian with a pleading face. Most of the pills used by human cultivators are unusable by ghost cultivators. But the pills that increase the strength of the soul can be used together. Even for ghost cultivators, their reliance on divine sense when improving their cultivation is even more prominent.

"Is that so If you can also refine Yin Sha fire essence, you will naturally have your own benefits. It is also a soul-reviving pill. If you refine more, I can also give you several more soul-reviving pills."

Lu Xia Tian said unexpectedly, "The mentions that to refine the Flying Heaven Silver Corpse Emperor Kun and ensure his strength doesn't decrease too much, it's necessary to restore his injuries as much as possible. The Emperor Kun clan belongs to the Flying Heaven Silver Corpses. First, Yin Corpse bones are used to refine Yin Sha Corpse Fire, then the Yin Sha Corpse Fire is refined into Yin Sha Fire Essence. After Emperor Kun absorbs the Yin Sha Fire Essence, he can gradually recover. After all, Emperor Kun was struck by two Dan Yuan Huo Jiao Arrows before and was critically injured. He then used the Earth-Splitting Knife to strike another blow while in a precarious state. If his recovery isn't expedited, even if Emperor Kun is somehow refined, his final strength will inevitably decrease significantly, which is not what he desires."

According to the refining method mentioned in the , although the method is not complicated, the choice of Yin corpse monsters is extremely harsh. Moreover, it takes a long time. At this time, Lu Xia Tian couldn't help but feel fortunate that he met Ge Changting and Xiao Sanniang, these two ghost cultivators. Otherwise, just for the Yin Sha Fire Essence alone, with him as an ordinary human cultivator, wanting to refine it would only be twice the effort and half the result. Even a skilled ghost cultivator would find it difficult to extract Yin Sha Fire Essence from the Yin Sha Corpse Fire. Not to mention he was just an ordinary human cultivator.

Fortunately, he had two ghost cultivators doing hard labor for him. The price was soul-nourishing pills, a priceless elixir to others, but easily obtainable for him since he was adept at alchemy.

Since Ge Changting and Xiao Sanniang already had something to do, they each got busy. As for the matter of guarding, it wasn't difficult either. Ge Changting sent out several low-level skeletons of varying strength. Once there was any wind or grass movement, it would be easily known.

The hole was not very big. Ge Changting and Xiao Sanniao sat on each side. Ge Changting took out the zombie's bones from his storage bag, then conjured the Yin Sha Corpse Fire and roasted them on the bone. Some residues on the bone were quickly burned to ashes by the Yin Sha Corpse Fire. After about several hours, a section of the zombie's skeleton was roasted like crystal glass. But this was not over yet. Under the repeated burning of the Yin Sha Corpse Fire, the impurities inside this section of bone were continuously removed, and it began to concentrate, becoming a water droplet-shaped liquid. It sizzled in the Yin Sha Corpse Fire. The water droplet-shaped liquid began to vaporize, and a mist rose above it. However, it did not disperse during the refining process of the Yin Sha Corpse Fire. After another hour, a spark appeared from within the mist, purer in color than the Yin Sha Corpse Fire.

Ge Changting secretly wiped the sweat from his brow. It was indeed easier to extract Yin Sha corpse fire from these powerful zombie skeletons. While the current process seemed lengthy, he had spent decades collecting this Yin Sha corpse fire himself. He had traveled countless battlefields across mundane countries, extracting it from countless corpses. This had become one of his signature moves.

Compared to these zombies, although the extraction process was more laborious, it was significantly faster. Ge Changting couldn't help but think, should he also use this method in the future However, Ge Changting quickly discarded this idea. With his strength, it would be quite a struggle to subdue a fifth-rank zombie, and these green-haired and white-haired zombies often acted in groups of several or even dozens. If he wasn't careful, he could easily fall into their encirclement. Once trapped, he wouldn't stand a chance. The risk was too high, and only the young man who seemed to have disabled legs could use this method.Killing a sixth-rank zombie was as easy as breathing for him; his strength was astonishing. Anyone else would probably die nine times over. Even Di Kun, the flying silver corpse that had disappeared for a thousand years, survived against him. It was impossible to comprehend with common sense. However, Ge Changting was secretly curious about what happened to Di Kun. Logically, given Di Kun's power and the environment of the tomb being advantageous for him, he shouldn't have lost to the young man in front of him. However, the Di Kun clan was notoriously bloodthirsty. If they had the upper hand, they shouldn't have allowed the young man to escape. When Di Kun first appeared, the young man in front of him was completely helpless.

This young man, despite his formidable strength and being crippled in both legs, we don't know what happened to him later. Ge Changting was slightly distracted while refining the Yin Sha fire essence when he suddenly heard Xiao Sanniang's delighted voice. Glancing over, he saw Xiao Sanniang smiling with joy as she put a strand of Yin Sha corpse fire, slightly larger than his own, into a small blue bottle.

While Xiao Sanniang's refining of the zombie bones was done in a pristine small bottle, inside it held an unknown azure flame. It was Tongting Netherfire, its level slightly higher than his Yin Sha Corpse Fire. Ge Changting's heart skipped a beat, he didn't expect Xiao Sanniang to have this trick up her sleeve. He had never seen her use it before. This woman was indeed deep and cunning, only revealing it at this crucial moment. It seemed she was truly determined to obtain the Soul Nourishing Pill.

Xiao Sanniang's actions made Ge Changting feel a sense of crisis. He quickly collected his mind and began to focus all his attention on refining the Yin Sha Fire Spirit.

As for the two people's underhanded comparison, Lu Xia Tian smiled indifferently. He obviously noticed that the atmosphere between the two was a bit subtle. However, he was very happy to see this kind of comparison.

With these two ghost cultivators helping him refine the Yin Sha fire essence, he saved himself a lot of tedious work. Lu Xia Tian compared the formulas in the with his own, pinching his thumbs and ring fingers slightly with both hands, then his hands moved in a series of intricate gestures. What he was learning at this time was a secret art from the book that could erase the memory of the Emperor Kun Yuan Shen, called the Soul-Breaking Seal! This secret art didn't require such complicated hand gestures when practiced to its peak, as it could be directly performed by the Yuan Shen. However, "a towering building starts from the ground up," Lu Xia Tian had only just come into contact with this secret art and had no choice but to start from the first step, steadily and carefully.

Thus, a strange phenomenon appeared in the cave. A human cultivator and two ghost cultivators, who should have been water and fire incompatible enemies, were now peacefully coexisting, and their atmosphere was quite harmonious. Ge Changting and Xiao Sanniang had been busy refining Yin Sha Fire Essence. The process was simple but tedious, but thinking about the Soul Nourishing Pills in the pill bottle, they felt that all this hard work was worthwhile. After all, if they were to improve their strength on their own, it would probably take more effort, and they might not have such good returns as they did now.

As for Lu Xiaitian, the speed of his hands changing various hand seals was getting faster and faster.
