Eternal Life: Hundredfold Rewards-Chapter 169 - 116: Secret Agents, Plotting Core Formation!

After a moment of silence, Situ Jiang shook his head.

It can only be said that Qi Chuan himself is remarkably talented, truly a prodigy. Coupled with cultivating the sword technique of the Supreme Elder, his strength far surpasses those in the same realm. That’s why he could consecutively kill two Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Celestial Soul Hall in such a short time.

Thinking this way, he could slightly understand it.

Setting this matter aside for now, Situ Jiang looked at another item on the stone table before him, a scroll entirely black, exuding a faint bloody smell, looking somewhat sinister.

"This should be the ’Blood Refining Technique’ of the Celestial Soul Hall, right?"

Seeing this scroll, Situ Jiang hadn’t picked it up yet, but he already had a hunch and said so.

"Yes, Master, keen eyes indeed." Qi Chuan replied with a smile. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

But Situ Jiang shook his head, saying: "It’s not about keen eyes, really. Over the years, our Wind Moon Sect has had occasional clashes and conflicts with the Celestial Soul Hall. Elders and disciples have sometimes killed cultivators from the Celestial Soul Hall and confiscated the ’Blood Refining Technique’ many times."

As he spoke, he picked up the black scroll and saw densely packed, twisted blood-red characters written on it. It was indeed the cultivation technique of the Celestial Soul Hall, undoubtedly the Blood Refining Technique.

However, it wasn’t the ordinary Qi Refining Stage Chapter, but a more complete Blood Refining Technique that included the Foundation Establishment Level.

"Hmm, the Foundation Establishment Level Blood Refining Technique is quite rare. By handing over this trophy, it counts as a merit for you. Later, I can add some Elder Merit Points for you."

"However, you are now in a false death state, and on the surface, Elder Merit Points cannot be added. For now, just note it down. If you have any resource demands, tell me, and I’ll use my own merit points to exchange them for you."

After storing away the Blood Refining Technique, Situ Jiang said this to Qi Chuan.

"Alright." Qi Chuan nodded, then curiously asked: "Master, is the cultivation technique of the Celestial Soul Hall released so generously? Many disciples and elders carry it with them, and if killed, would the cultivation technique not be easily taken by others? The Qi Refining Stage Chapter is one thing, but the Foundation Establishment Level Blood Refining Technique as well?"

Hearing this, Situ Jiang chuckled lightly and said: "The people of the Celestial Soul Hall are, of course, unconcerned about that. Although this Blood Refining Technique can reach the Foundation Establishment Level and the cultivation speed is fast, it has multiple hidden dangers and side effects. Once touched, for worry-free cultivation, one must rely on the Celestial Soul Hall to resolve these. They release it so openly because they want people to cultivate this technique and eventually become one of them."

"So that’s it." Hearing this, Qi Chuan nodded, understanding.

He then looked at the last item on the stone table, that pale purple jade token. Qi Chuan picked it up and handed it to Situ Jiang, saying: "Master, please take a look at this jade token. I know about the other two items, but this jade token feels very strange, and I haven’t seen any information. Please have a look."

"Let me see."

Upon hearing this, Situ Jiang took the pale purple jade token, holding it in his hand. He felt a warm touch, but the item was indeed at normal temperature. It was strange, with a smooth, flat surface, seemingly devoid of any information.

Although it seemed strange at first glance, recalling something, Situ Jiang slightly furrowed his brows, a hint of perplexity crossing his expression.

Then, releasing his Divine Sense, he enveloped the pale purple jade token, trying to penetrate it to see if there was any hidden information inside.

Yet, even so, there was still nothing, as if there really wasn’t anything hidden within, just an ordinary jade token.

"Ah."

Seeing this, Situ Jiang sighed. As Qi Chuan was puzzled, he saw the former flick his fingers, and a wisp of weak Innate True Fire leaped from his fingertips, landing on the bottom of the pale purple jade token, burning it like a candle flame melting a golden lock.

"Master, why are you burning it?" Seeing this scene, Qi Chuan asked in surprise.

But in the next moment, his expression showed a hint of amazement because under the baking of the Innate True Fire, the pale purple jade token showed no signs of change, as if the high temperature of the Innate True Fire had no effect on it.

"This..."

Seeing this, Qi Chuan was somewhat astonished.

This wisp of Innate True Fire, though weak, was casually exhibited by his master, but it still contained the Liquid Magical Power Foundation of Foundation Establishment Perfection.

The Innate True Fire catalyzed by the Liquid Magical Power of Foundation Establishment Perfection failed to burn this jade token? Truly curious.

Facing Qi Chuan’s confusion, Situ Jiang remained silent, only increasing the mana augmentation. Instantly, the originally weak Innate True Fire surged, transforming into a porcelain-white flame, engulfing the entire pale purple jade token in flames, burning fiercely. The space above the fire showed a distorted appearance.

And under such high temperature calcination, the pale purple jade token finally began to melt gradually, transforming into a pale purple liquid and slowly evaporating in the intense heat.

When all the pale purple liquid had completely evaporated, Situ Jiang withdrew his mana, and the Innate True Fire instantly dissipated.

Upon seeing this, Qi Chuan did not speak immediately because he knew that his master would surely provide an explanation.

As his gaze focused, he saw Situ Jiang remain silent for a moment, then slowly said, "If I’m not mistaken, this pale purple jade token should be from North Magnetic Mountain..."
