Celestial Being

Chapter 343: A Sudden Turn of Events

"Master." The scholar in white saluted respectfully to the girl in yellow.

"Tell me in detail what the two said and did after entering Baidanfang." The girl in yellow said, which would help her infer the origins of Yuan Ming and the others.

The scholar in white agreed and repeated the conversation and actions after he met Yuan Ming and the others, word for word. He naturally did not mention that he was frightened to tears and incontinence by Yuan Ming's eyes, and directly said that he was controlled by Yuan Ming's eyes.

After all, this matter was too embarrassing. If people knew about it, he would not have the face to stay in Baidanfang.

"Your words and actions can be controlled by a look? It should be an illusion." The girl in yellow heard this, muttered to herself, and fell into deep thought, and walked downstairs.

Seeing this, the scholar in white followed two steps behind.

In the private room on the third floor, Yuan Ming sat quietly with his eyes closed, and suddenly opened his eyes, with a hint of surprise on his face.

His spiritual sense had already detected the yellow-clothed girl coming downstairs, and the white-clothed scholar who followed respectfully. Could this girl be the owner of Baidanfang?

Not long after, the door of the room opened with a creak, and the yellow-clothed girl walked in. The white-clothed scholar did not follow in, but turned and went downstairs to do business.

"My two Taoist friends have been waiting for a long time. I am Yan Sijing, the owner of Baidanfang. May I know your name?" The yellow-clothed girl looked at Yuan Ming and bowed.

"Yuan Ming." Yuan Ming gave his name and looked at the person in front of him.

This girl is indeed the owner of Baidanfang. Seeing her true appearance, things will be easy later.

This Yan Sijing is only in the late stage of foundation building. He will be able to easily plant a soul seal on her and control her behavior by using black incense to possess her later. With the help of Huazhi and Hun Ya, it should not be difficult to get a bottle of Dan-washing spirit liquid.

Yan Sijing was also looking at Yuan Ming and secretly thinking about where there was a Yuan family of immortal cultivators in Zhao or even Qin. She couldn't figure it out for a while, so she simply stopped thinking about it. Someone in the shop would analyze it for her.

"So it's Fellow Daoist Yuan. Are you here to buy the Dan-washing Spiritual Liquid?" She asked with a smile on her face.

"That's right." Yuan Ming said concisely.

"I'm afraid this will disappoint you, Fellow Daoist. This shop..." Yan Sijing shook her head and said, and suddenly stopped talking, with a look of surprise on her face.

Yuan Ming had already seen Yan Sijing and was about to say a few perfunctory words to her before leaving. Seeing her like this, he was slightly startled.

"Ahem! Thank you, Daoist Yuan, for your presence. The Dan-cleansing Spiritual Liquid is a secret spiritual item of our Baidanfang. The production is very small, and it has been pre-ordered by distinguished guests from all over the world. It was purchased temporarily. It was definitely not available originally, but Daoist Yuan was very lucky. I just received news that a customer had an accident and returned a portion of the spiritual liquid. If Daoist Yuan can agree to do something for our shop, this Dan-cleansing Spiritual Liquid can be sold to Daoist Yuan at half price." Yan Sijing coughed and suddenly changed the subject.

Yuan Ming frowned. Yan Sijing was talking incoherently. I don't know what she was talking about?

But now it can be regarded as a sudden turn of events. If he can get a portion of the spiritual liquid through normal means, he has no intention of taking advantage of it. Zilei City has the Five Thunder Sect sitting in it, so it is better not to mess around.

"I wonder what Daoist Yan needs me to do?" Yuan Ming asked slowly.

"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Yuan, it's not a complicated matter. Our workshop will transport a batch of goods to Black Moon City in three days. Recently, bandits are rampant in the Black Wind Desert. A convoy of our workshop was attacked a few days ago and suffered heavy losses. We can't allocate enough manpower for the time being, so we would like to trouble Fellow Daoist Yuan to accompany the convoy. What do you think?" Yan Sijing said with a smile.

Yuan Ming raised his eyebrows. If it was just to escort the goods, it would not be a difficult task.

But if it was just an ordinary escort, Yan Sijing should not have to take out the precious Dan-washing Spiritual Liquid as a reward.

"Okay." Yuan Ming agreed after a little hesitation.

With his current strength, plus King Kong, Flower Branch, and Thunderstorm, he can escape unscathed even if he faces one or two Jindan cultivators, or even kill them. There is no need to worry too much. Even if he loses, he will always find a way to get out.

"Thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Yuan." Yan Sijing smiled happily.

The two discussed the specific details of the task again, and Yuan Ming said goodbye and left immediately.

After sending Yuan Ming and the other two down the stairs, Yan Sijing turned and walked upstairs. She soon returned to the entrance of the side hall on the fourth floor of Baidanfang and pushed the door open and walked in.

A woman in white was sitting quietly here, fiddling with a white jade slip.

This woman was in her early twenties, with thin eyebrows and a smooth nose, and fair skin. She looked about 70% similar to Yan Sijing, but Yan Sijing was immature and had a bit of innocence in her expression, while the woman in white was much more mature in temperament, with a curvy figure, exuding a mature and attractive smell.

However, the woman in white had dull eyes and no spirituality. She was actually blind.

Next to the woman stood a tall yellow wooden bookshelf, almost reaching the roof. There were as many as ten layers. The year was marked next to each layer, and the top layer was this year.

There were no books on the bookshelf. Each layer was filled with jade slips, one after another, stacked there. The least layer had hundreds of them, and the most were over a thousand.

The woman in white waved her jade hand, and a jade slip flew out from the second-to-last bookshelf and fell into the woman's hand.

"Sister, why did you ask me to agree to sell Yuan Ming a portion of the Pill Cleansing Spirit Liquid? We have already recruited enough masters this time. The Pill Cleansing Spirit Liquid is difficult to refine and the demand is huge. We may not be able to squeeze it out." Yan Sijing sat down next to the woman in white, took her arm, and said in a tender voice.

"This Yuan Ming is not simple. Take a look at this news." The woman in white handed over the jade slip she had just taken.

Yan Sijing took the jade slip and used her spiritual sense to investigate, saying: "The information about the plunder of the Yanlin Mine of Guiyuan Sect a year ago? The Dark Moon God? It is estimated that some cultivator was swindling. Sister, do you think this matter is related to the Yuan Ming just now?"

"Well, Yanlin Mine is a scarce material. I sent Uncle Qian to investigate this matter. After many twists and turns, I finally got the appearance of the cultivator who claimed to be the Dark Moon God not long ago. Take a look." The woman in white took a jade slip from the first layer of the yellow wood bookshelf and handed it over.

"This appearance is very similar to the one called Yuan Ming just now." Yan Sijing's eyes lit up.

"According to the information investigated before, the Dark Moon God who plundered the Yanlin Mine is good at soul attack. According to the description of Manager Huo, the Yuan Ming just now is also good at this. With such overlapping information, it is most likely the same person." The woman in white said slowly.

"It seems that it is indeed very likely that this Yuan Ming can rob a mine of Guiyuan Sect and kill a Jindan-stage elder by himself. He is very powerful. With his joining, this mission will be no problem." Yan Sijing nodded thoughtfully.

"Well, my intuition also tells me that this person's joining can bring us a certain positive impact." The woman in white tapped her brow with her finger and said.

"Really? That's good." Yan Sijing said happily.

"With this person joining, the previous deployment needs to be adjusted. You can do it according to what is written above." The woman in white handed over another jade slip in her hand.

"Okay." Yan Sijing took the jade slip and said without even looking at it.

The woman in white is her elder sister, named Yan Siyun. She was born blind, but she was blessed with a mind and extremely intelligent. She could remember any news and was very good at analyzing the situation and predicting the future.

The jade slips on the yellow wood bookshelf recorded the intelligence collected by Baidanfang, including the personal information of the main personnel of the major forces in the Black Wind Desert, as well as events that occurred in various places, killing orders, etc.

Based on the information collected, Yan Siyun can infer a lot of things.

This woman also has a special ability, her intuition is extremely sharp, even to the extent that she can vaguely predict good and bad luck.

Yan Siyun uses her reasoning ability and the ability to predict good and bad luck to predict things with a very high accuracy rate.

Although the owner of Baidanfang is Yan Sijing, she is only responsible for refining pills on weekdays. It is actually her sister who handles affairs and makes major decisions.

Yan Sijing refines pills, Yan Siyun calculates the prospects, and the two sisters work together, so Baidanfang has been able to grow rapidly in recent years.

Yuan Ming found an inn near Baidanfang to stay, and Xu Che returned to the teahouse to bring Zuo Qinghui and others with him.

Yuan Ming opened a barrier in the inn room, took out the black incense and inserted it into the Heaven Stealing Cauldron. After lighting it, he closed his eyes and began to try to possess Yan Sijing.

At this moment, Yan Sijing was alone in the alchemy room.

The woman opened her mouth and spurted out a white flame, which wrapped around the bottom of a green alchemy furnace. She kept pinching her hands and was refining the elixir.

"I didn't expect this woman to be an alchemist. No, this woman is only in the late stage of foundation building, why can she spit out alchemy fire?" Yuan Ming was surprised.

Although he did not distract himself to learn alchemy, he was not unfamiliar with alchemy. Alchemists in the foundation building period generally rely on the spiritual fire supplied by the magic circle or the earth fire to make alchemy.

Only when the cultivation reaches the stage of forming the elixir and nurtures the elixir fire, can one refine the elixir freely without relying on external fire supply.

"Could it be that Yan Sijing has a spiritual body constitution and the elixir field has its own spiritual fire?" Yuan Ming suddenly thought of a possibility.

In the world of immortal cultivation, there are some geniuses who have special spiritual bodies and are born with some supernatural powers. There are many types of spiritual bodies. Some people are born with the ability to control the power of the five elements, and some can communicate with spirit beasts, control ghosts, etc.

Some fire-attributed spirit bodies contain spiritual fire. Before reaching the stage of forming a pill, the power of the spiritual fire is not inferior to the fire of the cultivators in the stage of forming a pill, and it is very advantageous to use it to refine pills and tools.

While Yuan Ming was thinking, Yan Sijing's hands flew, and she kept throwing materials into the pill furnace. Her technique was extremely skillful, and it was obvious that her alchemy level was definitely not low.

Yuan Ming hesitated. He possessed Yan Sijing this time just to investigate the inside story of the escort mission of Baidanfang. He didn't expect that this woman was refining pills.

Yuan Ming has been busy with cultivation in recent years, but he is actually interested in alchemy in his heart. It's just that he has not found a suitable person to learn, and he is also entangled in many trivial matters and has no time to be distracted.

This Yan Sijing's alchemy skills are not weak, and now is a rare opportunity.

"Forget it. I'll send the first soul to sneak into Baidanfang and investigate the escort mission." Yuan Ming made a decision quickly, calmed down, and carefully experienced the alchemy process from Yan Sijing's perspective.
