Start cultivating immortals from full talent

Chapter 343 A Secret Deal

"He died in battle..."

Ning Daoran frowned.

Liu Xinyuan was young and energetic. Although he had a foul mouth, it was a pity that he died like this.

"Oh?"

Nangong Rou also bought a copy of the official newspaper. When she saw Liu Xinyuan's name on the list of casualties, she was slightly stunned: "Liu Xinyuan...actually died in battle?"

Ning Daoran nodded, then turned around and stepped into the cave to continue practicing.

"Humph!"

Nangong Rou stomped her feet in anger. This man was too unromantic.

……

A few months later.

A giant flying boat was across the sky above Kunpeng Immortal City. On the boat were a group of injured monks who had just returned from the border battlefield. In addition, some monks who had served on the battlefield for a full year were also able to return to Kunpeng Immortal City for a short rest.

Sui Xuan and Huang Yihan were among them.

But Sui Xuan was carried off the flying boat on a stretcher. He was seriously injured. In a bloody battle, he was severely hit by the magic weapon of the cultivators from the Sangyu Kingdom. His heart meridian was severely damaged and he almost fell back to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Huang Yihan was only slightly injured and would be able to recover to his full potential after a few days of rest.

late at night.

A figure appeared in front of Ning Daoran's cave. It was a beautiful girl, who was Sui Zhuyue, the daughter of Sui Xuan.

Under the moonlight, Sui Zhuyue's shoulders were covered with silver light, her beautiful eyes were red, and she knelt down in front of the cave with a "thump", saying: "Senior Ning... My father's heart meridian is damaged, please save his life... Sui Zhuyue will remember this favor in her heart and will never forget it..."

"Come in."

Ning Daoran dispersed the restrictions of the cave: "Sui Zhuyue, what happened to Brother Sui's injury?"

Sui Zhuyue stepped into the cave and cried, "My father's heart meridian was severely damaged by Sangyu Country. The cultivator in charge of treatment in the city said that there is only one kind of elixir that can heal my father's heart meridian, which is the legendary Huitian Pill. Senior Ning is a third-level alchemist, so he must be able to refine this medicine."

“Heaven-restoring pill…”

Ning Daoran frowned. He could indeed refine it and had refined it before, but they had all been consumed or given away. Now there was not a single Huitian Pill in his storage bag. More importantly, the main ingredient of the Huitian Pill was five thousand years old Nine-Transformation Spiritual Herb. The Nine-Transformation Spiritual Herb in the Lingpu Cave had been refined all last time. The new batch was exactly three thousand years old and was not yet usable.

"Unfortunately, I don't have the Huitian Pill here."

Ning Daoran said, "If we want to refine it now, we are still short of a five thousand year old Nine Revolution Spirit Herb. How about you wait a while while I go to the market to take a look?"

"it is good!"

Sui Zhuyue nodded.

Not long after, Ning Daoran traveled to all the markets in the city, including Qingxie Market, but found that the border war was so brutal that the spiritual medicines in the city had long been scarce, and there was not even a five thousand year old Nine Revolutions spiritual herb.

"Senior Ning..."

Sui Zhuyue's eyes were filled with tears: "My father..."

"I'll think of another way."

Ning Daoran frowned and said, "I'll go see your father first."

"Yes!"

Ning Daoran floated down and headed for Sui Xuan's cave. He wanted to try whether the twenty-first level of the Eternal Green Art could save people.

"Fellow Daoist Ning..."

Sui Xuan looked much older and thinner at this time. He lay on the bed with a pale face. He smiled bitterly and said, "It's just as Brother Ning said... In the last battle, I thought that the Sangyu Kingdom was already at the end of its strength, but I underestimated the enemy and rushed into their trap. This is why we have such a tragic scene now. I, Sui Xuan, deserve it..."

"You don't have to say that, fellow Daoist."

Ning Daoran said, "I have practiced a technique called Changqing Jue, which may be able to repair your heart meridians. Please relax and allow me to try."

"Okay, thank you!"

Immediately, Ning Daoran began to treat with the Changqing Jue, but soon he began to sweat profusely.

Sui Xuan's heart meridian was injured too badly, it was as if it had been split open by an axe, and it had been split back and forth several times. Even the Changqing Jue could not straighten it out in a short period of time.

However, the Changqing Jue can save Sui Xuan's life, so that he will have time to find the five thousand year old Nine Revolutions Spiritual Herb.

Ning Daoran made up his mind, damn it, at most I'll keep him in the suspense for a dozen years, by then the Nine-Turn Spiritual Herbs in the Lingpu Cave will be ripe!

……

On the sixty-sixth floor, Sui Zhuyue was about to return with Ning Daoran, but was stopped by a very beautiful female cultivator from the cave next door.

"Miss Sui, there's no need to rush."

Nangong Rou hugged her arms against the wall and said with a smile, "I do know someone who seems to have a Resurrection Pill hidden there for emergencies."

"Oh?"

Sui Zhuyue's eyes lit up: "Fairy Nangong, who is it?"

"It's right before our eyes."

Nangong Rou smiled and said, "Huang Yihan in the cave on the other side has a Rejuvenating Pill. Didn't he mention it to you?"

"what?"

Sui Zhuyue immediately turned around and visited Huang Yihan, and was immediately led into the cave by Huang Yihan.

……

"I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Sui's injuries were so serious..." Huang Yihan frowned, but his eyes scanned the collar of Sui Zhuyue who was kneeling in front of him.

"Although Huang did collect a pill of Huitian Pill, it was reserved for his own use. Moreover, I paid a very heavy price to obtain it. Although Fellow Daoist Sui and I have fought against powerful enemies side by side, friendship is friendship and transactions are transactions. This Huitian Pill can only be sold, not given away."

"Senior Huang!"

Sui Zhuyue gritted her teeth and said, "Father's injuries are very serious. He is in imminent danger. Senior Huang, please take out this pill of life-saving pill. If you have any requests, please speak up!"

"it is good!"

Huang Yihan smiled and said, "Sui Zhuyue, you have two choices. One is to take out 60,000 spirit stones. This Huitian Pill is a magical medicine that repairs the heart meridian. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a living dead flesh and bones. It is indeed worth the price."

"This……"

Sui Zhuyue was shocked. Although the Huitian Pill was precious, its price in the market before was only five or six thousand spirit stones per pill, which was about the same as the Foundation Establishment Pill. It was only recently that Kunpeng Immortal City became the front line of the war, so the price of the Huitian Pill doubled or tripled, but it was definitely not as exaggerated as ten times.

Sui Xuan and Sui Zhuyue's lives were already very tight. If not for this, Sui Xuan would not have gone to the border battlefield to gain military merit. How could they have come up with so many spirit stones?

"There is another option."

Huang Yihan narrowed his eyes and smiled, "To be honest, I fell in love with you the first time I saw you. But after all, there is a huge age gap between you and me. I am also a man of honor and shame, so I naturally dare not have any thoughts of usurping the throne. But now that you are in a hurry to get a pill to save your father's life, I dare to propose that if you nod your head and are willing to become a Taoist partner with me, I will give you this pill for free. What do you think?"

"I……"

Sui Zhuyue's expression changed slightly.

After a while, she said softly, "I want to discuss this with my father before giving you an answer."

……

Xuandong Mansion of Sui Dynasty.

Sui Zhuyue returned with a distraught look on her face.

"Daughter, what's wrong with you?"

At this time, Sui Xuan's complexion had improved a lot due to the nourishment of the Changqing Jue.

"father……"

Sui Zhuyue felt so aggrieved that she almost cried.

On the side, Ning Daoran frowned: "Being bullied? Tell me while I am here."

So, Sui Zhuyue told him everything about Huang Yihan.

"You are such a ignorant person, Huang Yihan. I never thought you were this kind of person!"

Sui Xuan was so angry that he stamped his feet and beat his chest.

"The Huitian Pills in the city have indeed been exhausted."

Ning Daoran said: "However, new spiritual herbs will definitely be continuously replenished. I have left a message at Qingxiefang. Once there is a new five thousand year old nine-transformation spiritual herb, I will be notified as soon as possible. At that time, I will start refining the elixir directly to ensure the safety of Fellow Daoist Sui!"

"But……"

Sui Xuan frowned, the words of the medical officer still echoing in his mind. If it weren't for the Huitian Pill, he would definitely not survive more than three days.

He also trusted Ning Daoran, but Ning Daoran was not a cultivator specializing in healing after all.

……

late at night.

With the help of Sui Zhuyue, Sui Xuan came to the front of Huang Yihan's cave.

The restrictions in the cave were lifted, and Huang Yihan smiled. When he looked at Sui Zhuyue, it was as if he saw his future Taoist partner, and he was almost drooling with envy.

"Friend Sui, come in quickly."

Huang Yihan raised the ban again, sat upright and said with a smile: "I wonder if Fellow Daoist Sui has thought it through before coming here this time?"

He took out a jade bottle from his storage bag and said, "The Huitian Pill is in this bottle. As long as Daoist Fellow Sui agrees to the matter between Huang and Sui Zhuyue, the Huitian Pill will be yours."

Huang Yihan said solemnly, "I really fell in love with your daughter at first sight. If Zhuyue and I become a Taoist couple... I will definitely not treat her badly. I will even prepare the sacred medicine for her. What do you think, Daoist Sui?"

"Ugh……"

Sui Xuan sighed and said, "Although I also think this is not a bad idea, the age difference between you and Zhuyue is too big. Zhuyue is less than 40 years old, but you are already over 300 years old... Moreover, I have talked with Zhuyue before, and you are not the one Zhuyue likes. If we force a marriage, it seems not good. It is very likely to affect her character in the future."

"Humph……"

Huang Yihan sneered: "If that's the case, why did Brother Sui bring his daughter to my cave?"

"My life depends on the Heaven-Rescuing Pill..."

Sui Xuan patted his storage bag and took out a thick notebook, saying: "This is my lifeblood, a second-level high-grade talisman inheritance. If Huang Daoyou is willing, I will exchange this inheritance for the Life-Restoring Pill. If you are not willing, I will accept my fate. If I can survive these days, Ning Daoran may be able to obtain the elixir and refine the Life-Restoring Pill for me. If I can't survive, then it's all fate..."

As he spoke, Sui Xuan showed a look of resignation and waiting for death.

"That's fine..."

Huang Yihan pondered for a moment. Since he couldn't get Sui Zhuyue, it would be good to get a second-grade top-grade talisman inheritance. Under normal circumstances, the price of a second-grade top-grade talisman inheritance was far more than a pill of Huitian Pill. He obviously made a profit in this deal.

The transaction between the two parties is completed.

Sui Xuan took Sui Zhuyue away from Huang Yihan's cave and quickly went back to take medicine to heal their wounds.

……

In the cave nearby.

Ning Daoran slapped his thigh, his face full of helplessness.

Sui Xuan, you are too scared of death!
