Chapter 287 Soul Searching Is Actually Very Difficult
The so-called second reincarnation didn't mean that she had lived a second life.
It was because Nan Li had reincarnated a long time ago. The spherical object before Fang Jinyu was a remnant of Nan Li's will before she died. After being nurtured in such a strange place for an unknown period, it had formed such a special creature.
In essence, it was a mystical spirit.
However, it was different from the common netherworld spirits such as Withered Bone Woman, Paper Wedding Dress, Grass Sword, Impermanence, Ox Head, Horse Face, Judge… The main difference was that it was an immortal mystical spirit.
It difference between it and the common netherworld spirits was that it was usually very difficult for a second immortal mystical spirit to appear.
However…
Fang Jinyu saw an exception.
It was because Nan Li's second incarnation was the same type of immortal mystical spirit as Yao Zaixian's "elixir spirit."
They were all born through alchemy.
However, the grade of the elixir spirit was far above Nan Li's second reincarnation. After all, the one who supported the "elixir spirit" was once Yao Zaixian.
Thinking of this, Fang Jinyu released the "elixir spirit."
Fang Jinyu removed the immortal imprisoning forbidden technique. Immediately, two black dots the size of green beans appeared on the round body of the "elixir spirit."
The two black dots turned left and right, obviously looking for an opportunity to escape.
However, the "elixir spirit" was soon stunned.
It was because the "elixir spirit" had seen the similarly round Nan Li on the side. It could sense that the other party's essence was the same as its!
"Eh? This is…"
Suddenly thinking of something, the "elixir spirit" hurriedly looked at Fang Jinyu and said, "Fellow Daoist, although you are an immortal official of the Immortal Palace in the immortal realm, you don't know many secrets of the Immortal Palace, such as the factional disputes between the immortal kings. However, as long as you hand her over to me to refine, I can help you gain a foothold in the Immortal Palace!"
Fang Jinyu narrowed his eyes and said with a broad smile, "No need. I already know."
It was naturally due to the secret technique "I'll listen quietly for a while."
When releasing the "elixir spirit," Fang Jinyu secretly used the secret technique to intercept fate.
Once the secret technique was used, the thoughts of the "elixir spirit" would appear in Fang Jinyu's mind simultaneously. Naturally, he also knew what the "elixir spirit" wanted to use for the transaction.
It was indeed a factional struggle between the immortal kings in the Immortal Palace of each immortal realm… However, it was information from the ancient era which nobody knew how many years ago.
The most important thing was that the timelines of the immortal king didn't interfere with each other, because once they interfered, it was equivalent to starting a fight.
Therefore, to avoid arousing suspicion, the direct descendants of the immortal king and the other immortal kings would avoid letting each other know the existence of the "Immortal of Heaven." Therefore, under normal circumstances, they would fight on a different timeline!
The rest were often not even at the level of the "First Immortal."
They were only in the early-stage and middle-stage Immortal Ascension.
Even though the Immortal Ascension stage cultivators were also very strong, they were all immortal Almighties. Even those at the early-stage and middle-stage Immortal Ascension weren't ordinary people!
However, on the day Fang Jinyu returned, his cultivation base was at least in the late-stage Immortal Ascension.
In other words, the "elixir spirit" was indeed planning a great scheme!
Without any hesitation, Fang Jinyu sealed the useless "elixir spirit" after he couldn't sense any new useful information. "I'll listen quietly for a while" was a secret technique that could intercept one's fate and sync with the other party's thoughts, but it couldn't pry into all of the other party's memories.
After all, it was not a soul-searching technique.
In the cultivation world, soul searching was a great divine power, not a spell!
Furthermore, a divine power that could search the soul wasn't something that ordinary cultivators were qualified to cultivate. One had to comprehend the essence of reincarnation before they were qualified to try out the divine power.
After all, soul searching was equivalent to reading another living being's life!
However, a living being could produce a long image in its life, right? For those who hadn't comprehended the essence of reincarnation, once they used the soul-searching divine power, their personality, and consciousness would often begin to change after the search was over.
For example, if Zhang San searched for Li Si's soul, Zhang San would soon become Zhang Sansi.
Even Li Sisan.
The latter was the most terrifying outcome.
Afterward, Fang Jinyu returned to the Tianling Sect. At the same time, he also brought the land of refining the heavenly elixir back.
Of course, Fang Jinyu didn't bring back the "elixir production line" openly. Instead, he was prepared to wait until a hundred years later and never open the land of refining the heavenly elixir again.
It was because not only was it detrimental to the development of the Nine Desolations' alchemy, but it was also a great weapon for the great families to monopolize the resources of the cultivation world.
The most important thing was that the land of refining the heavenly elixir was called the elixir realm.
Nascent Soul stage cultivators could rely on some special spiritual items to open up a secret realm. Incarnation stage cultivators could naturally open up an even more powerful small world.
The reason the small world was called the elixir realm was that it had fused with Nan Li's alchemy cultivation fruit!
One had to say that she was shockingly talented in alchemy!
Even though Fang Jinyu relied on his gains from the system, he was still inferior to her in alchemy.
Although it was mainly because Fang Jinyu's cultivation was lower than Nan Li's and the difference between the two was a major realm, how heaven-defying were the gains from the system?
At least, no matter what kind of Incarnation stage elixir it was, as long as Fang Jinyu could obtain the prescription, no matter how difficult it was to refine, he was confident that he would be able to successfully refine it!
However, since Nan Li died too early, she couldn't perfect her cultivation fruit and the entire land of refining the heavenly elixir. The small world couldn't be called the elixir realm. It could only be called the small elixir realm.
Fang Jinyu brought the small elixir realm away along with Nan Li's second reincarnation, the immortal mystical spirit.
The spherical object was completely relying on Fang Jinyu and refused to leave.
She didn't need Fang Jinyu to bring her along or wrap her in inner energy. She followed him on her own.
It made Fang Jinyu suspect that if "Cang" wasn't left with only bones and still had the same appearance from back then, could it be that Nan Li's second reincarnation had spontaneously gotten close to him again?
Looking at the spherical object, Fang Jinyu suddenly remembered something.
He seemed to have a spirit beast.
"Where did I throw that King-tier thunder-attribute frog?" Fang Jinyu thought about it carefully and finally remembered that the King-tier thunder-attribute frog should still be in the Cave Lake Realm of the Thousand Realms.
At that time, Fang Jinyu had encountered a realm collision and was accidentally swallowed into another realm. However, the King-tier thunder-attribute frog wasn't by his side at that time, so he naturally survived.
"Speaking of which, no matter how I think about it now, it feels a little like a coincidence…"
Fang Jinyu frowned.
"Could it be because I killed the eldest young master of the Qi family?"
After all, in Lin Xianer's story, the eldest young master of the Qi family had more scenes than the "busy Master Xia!"
