I asked you to go down the mountain and get married, not to shock the world!

Mingchuan looked at her silently, his eyes deep and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.

Hongxiu mustered up her courage and continued, "Although my cultivation is low, perhaps... perhaps I can use this special perception to help you detect some stagnation in your spiritual energy that you may not easily notice?"

"I just want to repay your kindness, sir, and have no other intentions!"

What she said was reasonable. She pointed out that Mingchuan had been concentrating on studying the jade slips recently, but the progress was a bit slow, which might be because he encountered difficulties.

He then gave a seemingly reasonable explanation, and finally reiterated the simple purpose of repaying a favor.

She portrayed the image of a little woman who admires the strong, is eager to help the people she admires, and has some special uses to the fullest.

But, if she just casually talked about her special physique, would people really think she was a fool and believe her?

Isn't this nonsense?

Even though she has a special physique, her current strength seems to be just that of a foundation-building stage.

Wanting to guide and help someone who is about to enter the Nascent Soul stage is too unrealistic!

Mingchuan sneered in his heart.

How can this help him?

Perhaps he wanted to take this opportunity to delve deeper into the secrets of his cultivation, or even deliver a fatal blow at the critical moment of his cultivation!

This idiot thought he was hiding it well.

However, he was very curious about how this woman and the evil core behind her wanted to help him.

"Oh?" Mingchuan showed a look of interest. "You have such a talent? Tell me, what did you sense?"

Hongxiu was ecstatic, the fish was hooked!

She hurriedly followed the prepared remarks, combining the trace of jade slip aura she had glimpsed that day with her previous observations, and carefully stated a few points about the sluggishness of the spiritual power in the Burning Sky Ashes Remnant. She even deliberately included one or two seemingly insignificant nodes that were actually related to the trap.

What she said was ambiguous, which not only demonstrated her own value but also laid the groundwork for a deeper foreshadowing.

Mingchuan listened with a calm expression on his face, but his heart was cold.

This woman is indeed not simple.

The few points she pointed out, though deliberately vague, did touch upon some crucial and dangerous areas in the fragment.

It seems that Xie He is not completely ignorant of the secret technique of Qingcheng Yufa Sect.

The Ancient Demon God...

In the past, it was a nightmare of the spiritual realm, or even the holy realm, or even more realms?

The evil core that fell from his body might actually be helpful for cultivation in some areas.

Mingchuan is now Cang Ziang, and he has only suppressed his cultivation to the Jindan stage.

If he could really learn this secret technique, he would be able to restore his original identity, and his cultivation would surely rise by two levels!

"That's quite interesting." Mingchuan nodded without comment after listening. "Your perception is indeed unique. I understand this matter. You can go back first."

He did not express his opinion immediately, neither completely believing it nor flatly rejecting it, leaving an ambiguous space.

Hongxiu knew when to stop and quickly bowed, "Yes, sir. I'll take my leave."

As she turned and left, she couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth in a triumphant smile.

Looking at her departing back, Mingchuan also raised a mysterious smile at the corner of his mouth.

"Want to use my study of the esoteric arts to plot your own scheme? Then let's see who will be caught in the net in the end."

He turned around, his eyes seeming to penetrate through the numerous palaces as he looked towards the direction of the sect master's hall.

Su Hongzhen, Hongxiu, Xiehe...the waters of the Qingcheng Yufa Sect are becoming increasingly muddy.

And he was just about to catch the big fish he wanted in this muddy water!

Just as Mingchuan was thinking about how to use Hongxiu's help to obtain more information from her and Xiehe, a special communication jade talisman in his arms vibrated slightly, emitting a unique fluctuation that only he could perceive.

It’s Ye Chuhan.

Mingchuan frowned slightly. This guy would never contact him on his own initiative unless there was something wrong.

He calmly returned to the quiet room of Burning Heaven Pavilion, activated the soundproof barrier, and then answered the call.

"Mingchuan! My dear brother! Help me—!"

As soon as the jade talisman was connected, Ye Chuhan's crying voice burst out. The sound was so loud that Mingchuan subconsciously held the jade talisman farther away.

"What's the matter again? If you have something to say, just say it. Don't make such a fuss." Mingchuan said impatiently.

"It's your master, Old Man Ye Yan!" Ye Chuhan spoke quickly, "Isn't he helping you take care of your sisters-in-law and Axiong Jizhou and the others in the human world?"

"Now, the old man is determined to let them embark on the path of cultivation as soon as possible, so that they can help you in the future! These are ordinary people who haven't yet drawn Qi into their bodies. They need the most basic foundation-building pills, essence-nourishing pills, and the like to lay a solid foundation."

"But the old man has said that if we want to lay a solid foundation, we must lay the most solid foundation. Ordinary basic elixirs are too slow to take effect. He asked us at Qingfeng Yumen if we have something good that can cleanse the marrow through the Yijing, lay the foundation in one go, and save us years of hard work!"

Ye Chuhan sighed, "Brother, you brought back so many people from the Demon Abyss before, and our sect's stock of basic elixirs has been almost emptied. How can we still find this kind of top-grade foundation elixir? My father has scolded me for wasting money several times because of this! I really have no choice!"

Mingchuan's eyes moved slightly when he heard this.

Master wants to pave a shortcut to heaven for the brothers in the human world!

Although those people have not yet drawn Qi into their bodies, if they can use top-grade elixirs to cleanse their hair and marrow and consolidate their foundation in Taoism, once they successfully draw Qi, their starting point will be far superior to that of ordinary people, and they will indeed be able to gain strength faster.

"Okay, I understand." Mingchuan pondered, "Give me the list, I'll find a way."

Ye Chuhan quickly reported the names of several elixirs, such as "Nine-Turn Foundation-Building Pill", "Dragon and Tiger Essence-Nourishing Pill", etc. All of them require precious materials and are extremely difficult to refine, but the efficacy is also extremely overbearing, enough for ordinary people to complete a series of ascension pills in a very short time!

"Brother, it all depends on you! The old man is urging us to do this, saying that time waits for no one!" Ye Chuhan emphasized again.

After ending the call, Mingchuan touched his chin.

These pills are indeed not something that Qingfeng Yumen can currently provide in large quantities.

Refining it yourself is the best option, but the materials required are also more precious.

"Since you want to help, let's help to the end." Mingchuan chuckled, "Let's use the resources of the Qingcheng Yufa Sect to pave a smooth road for my brothers in the human world!"

The next day, Mingchuan went to Lingzhi Garden again.

When he saw the elder, he handed over a list with a normal expression.

"Elder, I have gained something from my contemplation of the secret art and feel a breakthrough is imminent. I need to refine a few furnaces of Condensing Yuan Pills to stabilize my cultivation. In addition..."

He paused, a hint of ambition showing just the right amount on his face. "Disciple also wants to try to refine a furnace of Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pills to use when I reach the Nascent Soul stage. I need Purple Veined Ganoderma Lucidum, Jade Marrow Grass, and other materials. I hope Elder will help me."
