My talisman pen is omnipotent. How should you deal with it?

"Alas...you guys are in for a real treat today." Chu Ci said softly as he watched the spirit beasts wolfing down their food.

The spirit beasts seemed to understand Chu Ci's words. They all raised their heads and looked at him with puzzled eyes, as if asking, "Why is the food so good today?"

Chu Ci turned his gaze towards the cave entrance, thinking to himself: If I could have an absolutely loyal zombie as a helper, that would be great. But if Peng Qi still disagreed after three days, he would kill him without hesitation.

While these spirit beasts were concentrating on eating, Chu Ci set up a ban at the entrance of the cave to prevent spiritual consciousness from observing.

Although he thought it was impossible for Xu Xinghe to come out so soon, he still had to be fully prepared to be safe.

After doing all this, Chu Ci walked into the cave. Peng Qi was concentrating on studying the jade slip, completely immersed in it.

Chu Ci also sat down and took out a jade slip in his hand. The content of the slip was exactly the same as the one in Peng Qi's hand.

He also needs to study it carefully, and if Peng Qi agrees, he will need to try his best to refine it successfully.

The two of them sat quietly in the cave, each immersed in this secret technique. Two days passed and Chu Ci had completely understood the secret technique. He opened his eyes and found that Peng Qi had not made any movement.

Chu Ci was not in a hurry, he just sat in the cave and waited quietly.

Finally, on the third day, Peng Qi slowly opened his eyes, a bitter smile appeared on his lips, and he said:

"Friend Qi, I've made up my mind. You can refine me into a zombie, but..." Having said this, he suddenly stopped talking.

Chu Ci understood Peng Qi's concerns. The process of refining a zombie was not only complicated and tedious, but also very time-consuming. First, he had to find a large amount of black grass, extract the poisonous juice from it, and soak the person to be refined in it.

Then it needs to be fed with the turbid air from corpses. If there is no soaking in the black grass as mentioned above, the cultivator will be contaminated by the turbid air from corpses, and at best his cultivation will regress, or at worst his life will be in danger.

Once all the blood and essence in the body is replaced by the turbid energy from the corpse, the first step is completed.

At the end of the jade slip, there is a set of mental methods that need to be practiced by the owner and the zombie together. Only after the practice of this mental method is completed, the zombie can be considered to have been refined, and the person being refined can enter the corpse bag to practice.

Next, it is necessary to temper it with various natural treasures and feed it with various rare spiritual foods. The consumption of these resources is amazing, and Peng Qi must be worried about whether Chu Ci has enough ability and financial resources to support all this.

Even if there is, are you willing to pay for it yourself?

Even if he turned into a zombie, he would definitely want to be a zombie with high cultivation level.

Chu Ci's face straightened, and he said to Peng Qi solemnly, "Since Fellow Daoist Peng has made such an important choice, I will definitely do my best to help you. Fellow Daoist, please rest assured that I will find a way to solve all the resources related to cultivation. As long as you can endure the pain of the refining process, I promise that I will definitely find the best cultivation resources for you within my ability."

When Peng Qi heard Chu Ci's words, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He looked at Chu Ci gratefully and said in a trembling voice: "Qi Daoyou, I will not say more words of thanks. From now on, I will go through fire and water for you without hesitation."

Chu Ci nodded, and the two began to discuss the next plan.

Chu Ci calculated in his mind that it would take nearly two months to go to the Li family to find the remaining half of the map. During this time, at least the first step of the refining process must be completed so that Peng Qi can enter the corpse bag.

Only in this way can he go forward with peace of mind, otherwise a powerful Jindan master who may suddenly appear at any time will always make him feel uneasy.

Two hours later, Chu Ci rode on the Wind-Winged Eagle alone and flew towards Lingxi City.

According to their plan, Peng Qixian would wait in the cave, while Chu Ci would be responsible for going into the city to purchase the black grass and corpse evil air.

If everything goes well, they will be able to start making zombies in three days.

After flying about half the distance, Chu Ci took out a new disguise talisman and put it on his face.

Whether it is the disguise talisman called Qi Tian or the disguise talisman with a big beard, they have killed people nearby and are very likely to have been exposed.

Out of caution, he had to change to a new face to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Chu Ci flew towards the east of the city. The Chima Merchant Alliance and Peng Qi's former accomplices were all in the west of the city, while the Fang family's shop was in the city. Chu Ci didn't want to take risks in either of these two places.

Therefore, he chose the relatively unfamiliar area of ​​the east city, hoping to successfully purchase the required materials.

Chu Ci came to the street in the east of the city and his eyes were attracted by a shop. There was a striking plaque hanging on the lintel, with the three characters "Baicaozhai" very conspicuous. It was obvious that it was a place specializing in selling spiritual plants and herbs.

The store owner personally received him, and Chu Ci took out a long list from his arms.

This list contained dozens of names of spiritual herbs, each of which was a necessary material for refining the golden elixir. Anyway, since he had the Zi Hai He Chong formation, he had no requirements on the year.

And at the end of the list, it was written "100-year-old black grass, 1,000 plants". This number was carefully calculated by Chu Ci after careful consideration. This was the amount for two times, so if something unexpected happened the first time, he still had a chance to make up for it.

As for why we choose black grass that is more than a hundred years old, it is because the foundation for refining zombies is very important. If the body can be tempered with the poisonous juice of the hundred-year-old black grass, the hardness of the zombie will inevitably be greatly improved, and the turbid air of the corpse can also be better absorbed.

In this way, Peng Qi can also become one of his major fighting forces.

The nine kinds of medicinal materials needed to make the golden elixir are extremely precious. Chu Ci discovered that more than half of the spiritual plants on the list were not available in the shops, or the quantity was insufficient.

But Chu Ci took the attitude of accepting all offers and took as many as possible. After all, there were innumerable shops in Lingxi City, so he could always collect all the goods by visiting a few of them.

The shop owner was shocked to hear that Chu Ci needed a thousand black grasses. Black grass is a highly poisonous spiritual herb that is usually only used by alchemists who specialize in making poisons. It has never happened before that Chu Ci bought so many at once and asked for them to be more than a hundred years old.

However, there are actually some in the store, a total of 35 plants. The hundred-year-old spiritual herbs are expensive, each plant costs 2200 spiritual stones.

Soon, everything was packed, including the black grass. When Chu Ci was checking, the shopkeeper handed him a list. He looked down and saw 58 spirit stones.

The next step was to exchange talismans for spirit stones. Spirit Gathering Talismans were in great demand everywhere. Due to rising prices, the price of a second-level Spirit Gathering Talisman had reached 400 spirit stones. Chu Ci sold the talismans for 350 spirit stones. After taking out two thousand talismans, he actually made a profit of 12.

"If you have this spirit gathering talisman again, please come to our shop. As for the price, we can negotiate." The shopkeeper surnamed Ma of Baicao Zhai said with a smile as he handed the ring containing the spirit stones to Chu Ci.

Chu Ci took the ring, checked the amount and said to Shopkeeper Ma, "Okay, okay. Shopkeeper Ma offers such a generous price, and one of my seniors has also been making talismans, and has many more talismans than I do. If it is convenient for you, you can also give me a sound transmission talisman, and I will take them all to our Baicao Zhai when I go back this time."

Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Ma's face showed even more joy, like peach blossoms blooming in the spring breeze, as if he had seen a great business opportunity.

Chu Ci felt that the time was right, so he spoke again: "Shopkeeper Ma, I have one more thing to ask you."

"Oh? Please go ahead, fellow Taoist."

Chu Ci paused for a moment, then said, "I plan to buy some corpse evil qi, I wonder if you can give me some advice."

As soon as these words were spoken, Shopkeeper Ma's expression changed immediately.
