CHAPTER 226: CHAPTER 120: BREAKING THE BOTTOM LINE! THE BEGINNING OF THE FAIRY’S FALL! (6K)_2

"Qingxuan, would you like to try it too? It’s really comfortable!"

?!

"Thank you for your kindness, madam, but I won’t try it."

Ling Ningzhi’s expression uncharacteristically showed a hint of panic.

Taking advantage of the moment when the two were trying on clothes, she made an excuse to leave and quickly fled the scene.

Stepping out of the room, she took a deep breath to calm her mind.

"Such shameful underwear, who designed this... It’s only been a few years, has Tiandu City’s atmosphere become so liberated?"

Bang—

At this moment, a low rumble came from the backyard.

Soon after, the sky above the courtyard brimmed with spirit light, and a faint fragrance wafted through the air.

Ling Ningzhi centered herself, sensing, "High-Level Elixirs? And of considerable quality..."

She followed the source of the fragrance and arrived at an alchemy room’s door. After a moment of hesitation, she raised her hand to knock.

"Enter."

A man’s voice came from inside the room.

Ling Ningzhi pushed the door open and walked in, seeing Chen Mo sitting cross-legged on a mat, with two antique furnace tripods before him.

One furnace emitted a serene white glow, while the other was filled with a rich blood aura.

He controlled two seven-colored, glass-like flames, the furnace tripod roared, spiritual materials’ properties being constantly activated and streamers of light blending, the alchemy pills forming at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Daoist Qingxuan? Why are you here?"

Chen Mo spoke without turning his head.

"I came with Zhixia... What kind of alchemy pills are you refining?" Ling Ningzhi couldn’t help but inquire.

Chen Mo, controlling the two flames, replied, "One is the Youthful Elixir, and the other is the Leopard Embryo Blood Pill."

Bang!

In an instant, flames surged, and the lid of the furnace flew off.

Two pills were almost simultaneously refined, hovering in mid-air.

On the alchemy pills, faint elaborate patterns appeared, the white glow and blood aura complementing each other; they were both of perfect quality!

Yet Chen Mo seemed accustomed to this, casually collecting the pills and throwing a handful of spiritual materials into the furnace to start refining the next batch.

"..."

Ling Ningzhi was somewhat stunned.

The Youthful Elixir goes without saying; it’s an extremely rare super-grade pill.

The Leopard Embryo Blood Pill is also remarkable, capable of greatly replenishing Qi Blood Power, ranking high among premium spiritual elixirs, with considerable refining difficulty.

And Chen Mo could refine two perfect Spiritual Pills at once, even having the leisure to converse with her... This casual and relaxed demeanor, even the alchemy masters in the sect might not achieve this?

"Since your alchemy skills are so profound, why did you try to seize others’ spirit pills in the Secret Realm? Wouldn’t creating your own be more assured?" Ling Ningzhi asked, puzzled.

Chen Mo shrugged, "Because at that time I truly didn’t know how; this was all learned from the Green Lotus Pill Scripture."

"..."

These words, Ling Ningzhi naturally didn’t believe.

The "Green Lotus Pill Scripture" records ancient methods that have already been lost, obscure and hard to understand. She had been steeped in alchemy for years, struggling to make sense of the first volume and needing to combine practice and repeated study...

Yet watching Chen Mo’s movements, her expression gradually became serious.

"Green Spirit Fire Warm Furnace, wait for the spiritual materials to merge, then use the Purple Cloud Method to condense the pill... visualize the rhythm of the spirit pill, etching the lines with divine sense as a pen..."

"It really is the Green Lotus Refining Method?!"

In her clear eyes, disbelief overflowed.

Having obtained the "Green Lotus Pill Scripture" just a few short days ago, has this person already comprehended it?

Moreover, his practiced technique seemed to have been honed for decades, simply unbelievable!

"Not only is his martial arts cultivation extremely strong, but his alchemy talent is also terrifyingly formidable."

"But he is merely at the age of a weak crown... could it be there truly exists a born genius in this world?"

Ling Ningzhi finally understood why her grandfather valued him so highly.

"Did the Daoist suddenly come to see me because you’ve thought it through?"

While refining pills, Chen Mo asked aloud.

Supported by powerful soul power, multitasking was effortless for him.

Ling Ningzhi came back to her senses, her expression complicated, "I don’t understand, Mr. Chen, why are you so persistent about this matter? Even if I sign the contract, what good does it do for you?"

Chen Mo said lightly, "No good at all, just for amusement."

Ling Ningzhi questioned, "For amusement?"

Chen Mo’s thin lips curved into a smile, the tone carrying a hint of laziness and teasing, "To be precise, it’s to satisfy my perverse curiosity."

"I am quite curious, what would a high and mighty fairy look like after falling to earth?"

"A cold and bright moon suspended in the nine heavens, caught in the torrent of the mundane world, trapped by worldly shackles, a Daoist robe stained with dirt, eyes no longer clear... tut-tut, it seems it would be quite a unique sight."

He spoke so blatantly, originally expecting to provoke Ling Ningzhi, yet to his surprise, she remained calm, her gaze deep and inscrutable.

"Infinite Heavenly Venerate, I have no enmity with you, Mr. Chen, why impair my Dao heart?"

Chen Mo shook his head, "A Dao heart that can be so easily impaired, isn’t worth keeping."

Ling Ningzhi was silent for a moment, then said with a calm voice, "I don’t know what Mr. Chen is concealing... but if you wish to use my hand to deal with Tianshu Pavilion, I’m afraid your plan will fail."

Though she was the chief disciple, held a high status, in the face of the sect’s millennium foundation, she was insignificant.

This Daoist nun’s intuition was keen... Chen Mo’s expression unchanged, he said, "The contract clearly states, I will not force you to betray the sect; if you are worried, you can choose not to sign, after all, there are no shortages of buyers for the immortal materials."

Ling Ningzhi frowned, "I seek immortal materials to refine the Creation Golden Pill, but one of the core ingredients, the ’Heavenly Primordial Spirit Fruit,’ has already been used by you."

"This item is extremely rare, appearing only once in sixty years, and the person I wish to save can hardly hold out that long, so even signing the contract is to no avail..."
