Chu Ci saw Peng Qi's attack coming towards him, and his face instantly turned gloomy. He shouted sternly: "Peng Qi, what do you mean? Are you going to attack me?"

Peng Qi's attack did not stop, but became more fierce. He shouted, his voice echoing in the cave like thunder: "Who are you? Why are you sneaking around here?"

Chu Ci was stunned when he heard this. He suddenly remembered that due to his carelessness, he had forgotten to wear the disguise talisman.

Then he waved his hand and smiled, "Haha, Brother Peng misunderstood, it was me."

As Chu Ci finished his words, he waved his hand and turned into Qi Tian again.

Peng Qi was stunned, and looked at Chu Ci carefully. Suddenly, he realized that Fellow Daoist Qi, with whom he had signed a soul contract, had been using the art of disguise.

Peng Qi's tense nerves finally relaxed, and he quickly said, "It turned out to be Brother Qi. I really didn't know, and I deserve to die. But Brother Qi..."

Chu Ci looked at Peng Qi's nervous expression and said with a smile, "Daoyou Peng, to be honest, I have to be careful everywhere when I go out. I have never dared to show my true face to you before, I hope Daoyou can forgive me."

Peng Qi nodded after hearing this. Chu Ci's words made sense. Moreover, the person in front of him was so powerful that it was normal for him to know some disguise skills.

Thinking of this, he quickly said, "I don't deserve your forgiveness. Fellow Daoist Qi is cautious in his actions, and I admire him. As long as he is not a bad person, I will be relieved."

Chu Ci thought to himself, this is fine. Anyway, Peng Qi will have to follow him in the future, so he might as well let him see his true appearance now, so that he won't become a zombie and it will be difficult to correct himself.

So he spoke again: "Actually my last name is not Qi, my last name is Chuci."

After a long while, Peng Qicai slowly spoke: "I am so distressed that you have kept it a secret, my friend."

There was a hint of helplessness and relief in his voice, but from his tone, it was clear that he understood Chu Ci's concealment.

At this time, Xiaoli beside him suddenly interrupted and said, "Sir, who is this senior?"

Chu Ci quickly pulled Peng Qi to his side and said to Xiao Li: "Let me introduce you. This is a good friend of mine named Peng Qi. This girl..."

Chu Ci paused for a moment, as if thinking of a reasonable identity for Xiao Li.

Xiao Li suddenly spoke:

"My name is Xiaoli, the young master's spirit beast. Nice to meet you, Senior Peng!" After saying that, he bowed respectfully to Peng Qi.

Hearing Chu Ci calling him a good friend, Peng Qi felt a surge of warmth in his heart, and he quickly returned the greeting: "Hello, Miss Xiaoli."

"Okay, now that everyone knows each other, we have important work to do next." Chu Ci said, taking out a storage ring.

The ring contained all the materials he bought this time, including more than 500 stalks of black grass, one hundred bottles of corpse evil air, eighty to ninety stalks of various spiritual herbs, and a large jar.

Chu Ci took out everything at once and placed them in front of the two of them.

After Peng Qi carefully read it, he was overjoyed. In the past few days since Chu Ci left, he has been concentrating on studying the method of refining zombies in the cave.

He discovered that if the venom was extracted from black sedge grass that was more than a hundred years old, the harm to the body would be minimal.

Moreover, the zombies made after being tempered with this poisonous juice look no different from ordinary people in appearance.

At this moment, seeing Chu Ci taking out those Wujingcao that were all over a hundred years old, Peng Qi's eyes revealed an extremely excited look.

This means you can lay a solid foundation right from the start.

Peng Qi pointed at the more than one hundred jade boxes containing spiritual herbs on the table and asked, "Fellow Daoist Chu, what are these?"

Chu Ci explained: "I consulted several ancient books and found a recipe for a pill called 'Hua Sha Dan'. This pill can speed up the transformation of your physique and make your refining process smoother.

Therefore, I specially bought these spiritual herbs and planned to refine some evil-removing pills for you. Taking one pill every day can not only reduce the pain during the refining process, but also accelerate the improvement of your cultivation. "

When Peng Qi heard this, he immediately opened several jade boxes impatiently. The large red black ginseng, the blood-transforming jade grass, the black mysterious grass... these rare spiritual herbs amazed Peng Qi.

He made a rough estimate and concluded that the total value of these spiritual herbs plus the more than 500 hundred-year-old black spirit grasses and the evil spirits from corpses might be more than one million spiritual stones.

This made him feel deeply moved by Chu Ci's generosity and sincerity.

"Okay, now I'm going to start assigning tasks." Chu Ci pointed at the black grass and said, "Fellow Daoist Peng, you will be responsible for extracting the poison from these black grasses."

Peng Qi nodded solemnly.

Chu Ci took out another piece of paper and said, "Xiao Li, this is a pill recipe. You should mix these spiritual herbs according to the proportions on the recipe. There are enough for ten furnaces of pills here. Remember, you must be careful and not make any mistakes."

Xiaoli nodded obediently and agreed, and then the two of them went about their business.

Chu Ci also started his work, first setting up a Jue Xiang Formation in the corner of the cave.

This formation had been used before when Lin Mengyan was building her foundation. It could block out all interference from sounds and images. No matter whether one looked from the outside in or from the inside out, one could not see through it.

After arranging the formation, he sat in the center of the formation and began to carefully carve the formation flags.

It would take at least 49 days to temper the body with the poisonous juice of the black grass, and then the blood and essence in the body would need to be gradually replaced with the corpse evil spirit. If the Zi Hai He Chong formation was not used to speed up, it would not be possible to complete it within two months.

A few days later, Chu Ci walked out of the Jue Xiang Formation. After only a few formation flags failed, he had completely refined the Zi Hai He Chong Formation and the Ju Ling Formation.

After leaving the battle, I saw Xiaoli playing with a pile of stones in front of her in a corner of the cave, bored. It seemed that she was bored these days.

Peng Qi still held the jade slip in his hand, and it seemed that he was still studying the method of refining zombies.

"The young master is out!" Xiaoli was the first to discover Chu Ci, and shouted excitedly, his voice full of joy, and he jumped up from the ground.

Over the past few days, Peng Qi hardly said a word, which made her feel very bored.

Peng Qi also came over. Although he didn't know what Chu Ci had been doing in the formation these days, he could feel that it must be an important matter, and it must be related to corpse refining.

Chu Ci nodded and said to Peng Qi, "Fellow Daoist Peng, Xiao Li, I want to build a formation here, which will help Fellow Daoist Peng's cultivation. But you must not be disturbed. You two should enter my formation and rest for two days."

Hearing this, Xiaoli pouted immediately: "Master, can I go to the spirit beast bag to rest?"

Peng Qi hadn't been able to say a word for three days, and this time he made the two of them stay in a small formation for several days. Xiao Li couldn't stand it anymore.

Chu Ci also knew what Xiao Li was thinking, so he put it into the spirit beast bag.

Peng Qi looked at this scene and said faintly, "After I become a zombie, can I also be collected like this?"

Chu Ci nodded and said, "But you entered a corpse bag. If Brother Peng regrets it, it's not too late now."

Peng Qi shook his head: "No, I don't regret it, I trust you." When he saw the various rare materials brought back by Chu Ci, coupled with his research on the secret technique in the past few days, Peng Qi became more determined.

After saying this, he walked into the Juexiang Formation without looking back.
