437: Chaos Pill, Nangong Family

At this point, the old ghost sighed heavily.

He then turned his gaze toward you.

"One does not visit the Hall of Three Treasures without a reason. Speak, what is your true purpose in seeking me out?"

"My place is not often visited. Aside from a few top-tier Alchemists, there is not a soul in this world who even knows of my existence."

Hearing this, you offered a slight bow and stated the purpose of your visit.

You told the old ghost that you wished to refine a Medicinal Pill that would allow a Cultivator at the Eighteenth Realm to continue improving their strength.

Furthermore, you promised that no matter what Materials he needed, you would do everything in your power to find them for him.

"Oh? Is that true?"

A glint of light erupted in the old ghost's eyes.

Clearly, your words had moved him.

Seeing this, you repeatedly expressed your sincerity.

You gave the old ghost a large quantity of Heaven And Earth Treasures, and promised that once the refinement was successful, you would find him whatever he desired.

However, the old ghost merely smiled and said, "What you seek is right before your eyes."

"As long as you can help me refine Chaos Qi into a Medicinal Pill, it will certainly allow you to improve your strength."

As he spoke, the old ghost began to introduce the Medicinal Pill he was currently refining.

He told you that the Medicinal Pill he was currently refining was called the Chaos Pill.

Its primary Material is the Chaos Qi scattered throughout the world.

As everyone knows, no one can absorb Chaos Qi.

Because the energy within it is too mottled; once a Cultivator absorbs it, not only does it fail to provide any help, but the mottled energy will cause them to suffer constant, severe damage.

However, the Medicinal Pill he is refining can perfectly solve this issue.

The Chaos Pill can compress the damage that the power of Chaos inflicts upon a Cultivator to a certain range.

In this situation, although the energy contained within the Chaos Qi will be slightly reduced, the damage to the Cultivator will cease to exist.

Therefore, as long as the Chaos Pill can be successfully refined, it will certainly benefit all Cultivators in the world.

Hearing this, you felt something was off.

You immediately spoke up, "This... Fellow Daoist Dan Gui, what I am seeking is a method to continue improving from the Peak of the Eighteenth Realm."

"Although your Chaos Pill sounds impressive, it seems to be of no use to me."

"How could it be of no use?"

"As everyone knows, if a Cultivator wishes to cultivate, they must rely on the gentle energy of Chaos Spiritual Energy."

"And the further one progresses, the more Chaos Spiritual Energy they require."

"You are currently trapped at the Peak of the Eighteenth Realm, and it is very likely that this is simply because the energy you have absorbed is insufficient for your Breakthrough."

"And the Chaos Pill can perfectly solve all of this."

"After all, its main raw material, Chaos Qi, is everywhere. As long as it can be successfully refined, you will certainly have enough energy to achieve a Breakthrough."

Daoist Dan Gui's words were passionate and stirring.

After hearing this, you nodded thoughtfully.

It must be said that Daoist Dan Gui's words made a lot of sense; this was indeed a viable path.

After all, the Chaos Spiritual Energy required when a Cultivator attempts a Breakthrough is constantly increasing.

If there truly is a Nineteenth Realm, heaven knows how much Chaos Spiritual Energy would be needed to break through from the Peak of the Eighteenth Realm?

Thinking of this, you immediately asked Daoist Dan Gui what was still missing for the refinement of the Chaos Pill, vowing that you would do everything in your power to acquire it for him.

"That is hard to say."

"In any case, all top-tier Materials in the world can be tried. Although they might not all be useful, the more the better; they will always increase the success rate."

Hearing this, you gave a slight bow and immediately set out on the path to find top-tier Materials.

Just like that, while searching for top-tier Materials in the Outer Universe, you began to head in the direction of the Nangong Family.

Soon, you arrived at the location of the Nangong Family, Nanming City.

This place could be considered prosperous, but compared to places like Guangyu Heaven that you had visited before, it was somewhat like comparing a minor sorcerer to a great one.

You entered and made some inquiries, and soon found the territory of the Nangong Family.

You did not act too high-profile; instead, after revealing a portion of your cultivation, you had the guards at the entrance of the Nangong Family pass a message to the Nangong Family Clan Chief.

Soon, a middle-aged Cultivator appeared before you.

This person's cultivation was pitifully low.

If you were not mistaken, he should only be at around the Fifteenth Realm.

"This Lord, I do not know what important matter brings you to my Nangong Family?"

"There is no particularly important matter; I just want to ask you about someone."

"Who is it?"

"Nangong Bu Mie."

As soon as these words were spoken, a cold glint immediately flashed in the eyes of the Nangong Family Clan Chief.

The next moment, a large number of Nangong Family cultivators appeared out of thin air, instantly surrounding you.

They all had ferocious expressions, and their gazes toward you were extremely unfriendly.

"Oh? Do you intend to make a move against this seat?"

You chuckled, not taking these Nangong Family cultivators seriously at all.

Although their cultivation was decent in the Outer Universe, they were basically all at the Fifteenth or Sixteenth Realm.

In your eyes, this level of trash was even less than ants.

With just a slight move, you could annihilate them all.

However...

You did not choose to do so.

Because you clearly knew the purpose of your trip.

You struck out with both hands, instantly grabbing two Nangong Family cultivators.

Just like that, in full view of everyone, you pulled out their Divine Souls and refined them in an instant!

"How bold!"

"You dare!"

"Kill! Kill this person for me!"

"..."

A series of shocked and angry voices rang out one after another.

But to your surprise, you did not obtain any useful information from the memories of these two Nangong Family cultivators.

In their memories, there was no one named Nangong Bu Mie in the Nangong Family at all.

They also did not know of the existence of Nangong Bu Mie.

This left you feeling very puzzled.

Because your target for soul-searching was not grabbed at random, but carefully selected.

Among the Nangong Family cultivators surrounding you, these two had the most hostile glares toward you, and their expressions were the most ferocious.

Yet who could have thought that even with two such beings, there was not the slightest memory of Nangong Bu Mie in their Divine Souls.

"Fine, then let this seat see exactly what kind of medicine is being sold in your Nangong Family's gourd."

You let out a cold shout and immediately began to take action against the other Nangong Family cultivators.
