School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master Chapter 2173 - 2259: Holy Pill – Soul Condensing Pill
Previously on School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master...
Chen Nan thought to himself, it should be pretty much as he guessed.
However, he still acted very curious and asked, "What happened?"
"Sect Master, the Lord of Corpse Control, originally wanted to refine the Asura King into the Heavenly Corpse King. Unexpectedly, the Asura King’s body was extremely powerful and couldn’t be refined in hellfire, which instead retaliated against the Sect Master, injuring him."
Mo Chenzi still remembered the events of those years vividly. The Lord of Corpse Control had never experienced setbacks on the Path of Corpse Refining, and that time, his rage was overwhelming; several disciples of King Realm met their unlucky end and were killed by him.
However, killing a few disciples was insignificant.
What happened next was terrifying!
The Lord of Corpse Control was a prodigy in corpse refining and certainly not a mediocre person who would give up after one failure. He returned to Heavenly Pillar Peak and did something unexpected; he attempted to strip the Asura King’s bloodline to fuse into his strongest Heavenly Corpse King.
This fusion lasted for forty-nine days, but the final result was a failure, as both the Heavenly Corpse King and the Asura King broke free from their shackles and attacked the Lord of Corpse Control.
The Lord of Corpse Control possessed immense strength, but the prowess of the Heavenly Corpse King and the Asura King was terrifying. That battle unleashed such power in Heavenly Pillar Peak that the Heavenly Corpse Sect suffered countless casualties.
Continuing to fight could potentially lead to the destruction of the entire Heavenly Corpse Sect.
The Asura King’s battle intent was inexhaustible, growing fiercer and more courageous with each fight. The Lord of Corpse Control was at a disadvantage facing two powerful adversaries.
If the fight continued and the Heavenly Corpse King and Asura King left Heavenly Pillar Peak, mass catastrophe could ensue.
Although the Lord of Corpse Control was the master of the sect, he felt guilty for causing such a disaster. At the critical moment, he performed the Sacrifice Body Spell and activated the entire seal of Heavenly Pillar Peak, sealing the whole peak.
Following that, on the day of Taiyin’s gathering, the eight elders placed down the Broken Dragon Corpse, completely sealing Heavenly Pillar Peak.
Under the Dragon-breaking Stone, even if the Lord of Corpse Control wanted to emerge, unless he smashed Heavenly Pillar Peak, it was nearly impossible, for Heavenly Pillar Peak was an ancient relic from the Outer Domain, intricately connected to the entire Heavenly Corpse Sect and nearby Spirit Veins.
After listening to Mo Chenzi, Chen Nan felt that there were still certain discrepancies with his initial thoughts. It seemed that refining the Asura King’s body wasn’t such a simple task.
Chen Nan chuckled, "Elder Mo, the ugly girl Three-Corpse Taoist brought back this time possesses two major bloodlines. Aren’t you worried that something might go wrong during the refining?"
Chen Nan had already marked Huaguzhi, and the Three-Corpse Taoist had begun refining her, yet Chen Nan noticed through his mark that Huaguzhi’s strength wasn’t weakening; it was, in fact, continually increasing.
"The Asura King himself is immensely powerful, but I’ve seen that ugly girl. Despite possessing two major bloodlines and being somewhat special, she can’t compare to those two monsters from back then. Whether it’s the Heavenly Corpse King or the Asura King the Sect Master attempted to refine, just a breath from them could reduce her to ashes."
Mo Chenzi paid no heed to Huaguzhi: "Those who bear two kinds of bloodlines usually have one innate and the other acquired. I noticed that ugly girl’s skin is snowy, yet her face is hideous, possibly cultivated postnatally with two kinds of bloodlines forcefully injected. Nothing to fear. Let that Three-Corpse kid try his luck; he won’t achieve much. At most, he’ll develop a Heavenly Corpse King listed among the Ninth Peak."
Mo Chenzi’s thoughts at this moment were entirely focused on Chen Nan and weren’t interested in other matters.
"That guy seems reasonable; it’s also possible that the Silver Moon Fairy might not have known everything about Hua Guzzi since she wasn’t her foster from birth."
Chen Nan thought to himself, feeling nostalgic about the past days shared with Man Wuji, Jiang Yan, and the Black Feathered Chicken.
"Back when you sealed it, asking me to open the seal from within—facing three formidable beings, I’d be doomed if any one of them attacked me."
Chen Nan shook his head, feeling that although this matter involved him and Su Qingqing’s lives, he believed that there are always solutions at the front of mountains. Extreme measures aren’t the answer and will never solve the situation.
This exceedingly risky affair was something he wouldn’t engage in.
"Little brother, you’re overthinking this. With countless disciples in our Heavenly Corpse Sect, why would we ask you to enter Heavenly Pillar Peak? Actually, for the rescue of the Sect Master, the disciples willingly risk death, but our Heavenly Corpse Sect comrades deal with corpses year-round. While their strength drastically increases during the night of Taiyin’s gathering, many drawbacks occur too; for instance, the sect disciples, due to being tainted by Corpse Qi and Taiyin Energy, if the seal was removed, might awaken the exhausted Heavenly Corpse King."
Mo Chenzi spoke solemnly, "In the thousand years, although the Heavenly Corpse King and Asura King are mighty, under the Sect Master’s sacrifice to enforce the seal, their strength has been greatly depleted by the Sealing Array on Heavenly Pillar Peak. If they can’t absorb Taiyin Energy and Blood Qi, their strength won’t recover quickly when woken up."
Chen Nan nodded, seeing this explanation as likely.
Mo Chenzi smiled and said, "As the Sect Master’s strength keeps recovering within Heavenly Pillar Peak, a thousand years have sufficed for him to heal his wounds. Little brother’s blood is extremely Yang and won’t disturb, instead, it’ll restrain the roots of those two terrifying entities. Elder Eight gave you the token, which the Sect Master will recognize. Additionally, if the Sect Master acts against you on Heavenly Pillar Peak, it’ll be a mutually destructive gesture, as your blood Qi, if influenced by the Heavenly Corpse King and Asura King, Yang Qi will instantly transform into Taiyin Energy, arousing them."
Having some knowledge about the Corpse Refining Path, Chen Nan understood this reasoning, that his blood Qi, reliant on his body, remains extremely Yang.
Nonetheless, evil entities possess a proclivity to absorb Yang Qi and convert it into Yin Qi; moreover, on his journey, he’s killed numerous enemies, his blood filled with Xue Sha; compared to ordinary men, the Asura King absorbing it would certainly awaken.
"Well, old brother, regardless if you can open the seal, our Heavenly Corpse Sect will forever owe you a favor." Mo Chenzi extended his hand, revealing a brocade box in his palm.
"Little brother can have a look; within this box is the Sacred Elixir from our Heavenly Corpse Sect, the Soul Condensing Pill. Even if only a thread of spiritual wisdom remains, it can restore your divine soul, let alone your mere weakened divine soul. I have ten Soul Condensing Pills here, forged over a hundred years by our sect’s eight elders—a remarkable achievement. Should you agree to enter, I can first provide you one, aiding in stabilizing your weakened soul for three months without issues.
Mo Chenzi took out a Soul Condensing Pill, showing no fear of Chen Nan seizing it, smiling at him, waiting for his decision.
"Chen Nan, this Soul Condensing Pill not only stabilizes your divine soul, but Qingqing can receive this sacred elixir, strengthening her contemporary soul, avoiding pre-seal memory anguish, easily reigning between two memories."
