Liusu- related items are always troublesome. The Innate Creation Bone is a direct confrontation with the Heaven Rank -Opening Dragon Soul. Fortunately, it was affected by the "Alliance" recognition, and it was obtained without any major danger.

Then he wasn't so lucky anymore. He fought to the death with the Blood-Chilling Nether Marrow and made many powerful enemies, which caused endless trouble.

It's easy to imagine that the Witch God Sect is very interested in this item. Fortunately, it's not unique, and there are other ways to obtain it, so the Witch God Sect won't go to great lengths to acquire it. At least the Sect No Form Sect won't make a special trip out of the way. However, it must be recognized that it wouldn't be too surprising if a powerful Qian Yuan cultivator tried to snatch it; facing a Huiyang opponent would be a given.

That's all fine, as long as I get it.

I really have no idea how to get the other five items that I haven't gotten my hands on yet... I don't even have a clue.

However, people have a strange tendency: if they don't acquire two such high-end items, they might consider using lower-grade alternatives for the other seven items, as long as they're usable. But once they have two, they naturally want to pursue the highest-end of the other five.

The Blood-Chilling Nether Marrow is currently only a substandard product; Qin Yi plans to upgrade it before making any further decisions...

These are the items needed to reshape the body, as well as supplies needed for the Liusu's soul power healing and recovery.

This kind of "injury" is very special. If it were to heal itself, one only needs to look at how, over the past tens of thousands of years, it could only recover to the pitiful extent of being beaten back by its own mind full of pornography. It's enough to make anyone who hears about it weep. It's clear that self-healing is basically out of the question; treatment is necessary.

Similarly, Liusu's enemies have been relatively quiet for tens of thousands of years, so their recovery is probably difficult. This level of injury is clearly not something he can resolve by simply taking some medicine, resting for a few days, and engaging in dual cultivation.

Previously, Liusu had managed to recover to the Shining Sun Peak by finding various symptomatic treatments and absorbing other people's soul power. However, even the nourishment in the Kun Peng Purple Mansion was of little use. It is conceivable that the Qian Yuan Great Hurdle cannot be solved by nourishing soul power. It is necessary to continue to find the right medicine.

Now that we have the Yin Soul Pearl, all we need are some auxiliary materials to refine its medicinal effects.

These auxiliary materials aren't exactly special or unique; Liusu can easily name seven or eight substitutes. However, the problem is that most of what Liusu knows dates back tens of thousands of years. Some are extinct, and some may no longer have their names, making it very tiring to find them every time.

At the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace, Liusu also went to the medicine warehouse to brush up on her knowledge of the latest things, but the collection of the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace could not represent the changes in the entire world, and her understanding was still insufficient.

Qin Yi sometimes wanted to call it "old-fashioned," but then he felt that Liusu had already tried very hard to learn new things, so that label didn't apply. So what should he use to describe it... well, let's just say it's awesome and cute.

He waited for half a day at the Penglai Sword Pavilion until Li Qingjun retrieved the new spear before following Chu Jiantian off the island to the Immortal Town Market.

"Brother Chu, wait a moment..."

"What?"

"Well, since we're shopping, we can't leave our wives and kids behind, or we'll get a beating."

Chu Jiantian: "???"

Isn't your wife here with you?

After a while, Qin Yi arrived with a stunningly beautiful woman in yellow, who was also holding the hand of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl.

Chu Jiantian stared blankly at his junior sister. She pouted but didn't say anything. Instead, she went up to her, rubbed the girl's cheek, and made a face.

Chu Jiantian turned around and crashed headfirst into a reef in the sea.

"Brother Chu, what are you doing?"

"Nothing, just an itchy scalp..." Chu Jiantian flew away with a look of grief and indignation.

Damn it, I witnessed you and your junior sister Jia Cheng Maiden last time, and this time it's even worse, you brought your child out!

Wait a minute, aren't you only twenty-one? Where did this thirteen or fourteen-year-old come from? Are you exceptionally gifted, able to do that at seven or eight? Is this the secret to your awesomeness, Qin Yi?

Then we heard the little girl say, "We've been to the overseas Rogue Cultivator Town Market, and they're not fun."

Qin Yi asked, "Why isn't it fun?"

"There are too many scammers," Qing Cha said. "That person said it was some kind of life-giving elixir that could prolong the vitality of harvested plants. My master happily bought it, but it only prolonged the life by one day."

Ju Yunxiu blushed and said, "What are you saying? It was clearly a day and a half."

Qing Cha glanced at her master with disdain but said nothing.

The master was tricked for her sake; you should at least understand that.

Qin Yi looked at Ju Yunxiu's flushed face with a smile. The way his Senior Sister, who usually maintained an intellectual demeanor, looked embarrassed and indignant was particularly amusing.

It's rare for my bourgeois Senior Sister to go out, so she probably got ripped off pretty badly when she went shopping. No wonder she was broke and had to sell paintings to buy lemon tea.

Ju Yunxiu retorted angrily, "What are you looking at? Consider it a reward for them buying coffins!"

Qin Yi turned to Chu Jiantian and asked, "Isn't anyone in charge of this Town Market?"

Chu Jiantian coughed twice. "Yes."

"Don't tell me it's someone from your Sword Pavilion again?"

"... That's right."

"Can I return it?"

"No." Chu Jiantian had no choice but to explain, "We only deal with things like forced buying and selling, and robbing by force. As for whether you get cheated, that's a matter of personal judgment. Going to Town Market like this is inherently a gamble. You might buy a treasure at a regular price, or you might make a mistake and spend a lot of money on junk. You have to bear the consequences yourself."

Qin Yi nodded. "So, there really is such a thing as extending the vitality of harvested plants, right?"

"Of course there are... There happen to be quite a few things with similar effects at sea. How effective they are depends entirely on your eyesight."

Qin Yi picked up Qing Cha and held it high twice. "It will take more than a day and a half for your uncle to find it for you."

So it's your martial uncle... Chu Jiantian wiped away his cold sweat and breathed a sigh of relief. He really thought you could have a baby at seven or eight years old.

Speaking of which... this adorable little girl is... a tender tea bud?

Chu Jiantian finally recognized her and couldn't help but say, "If we want to extend this young lady's lifespan, relying on this kind of thing is only a temporary solution. Ultimately, we should find a way to improve her cultivation."

Qin Yi said, "A single tea leaf, not even a complete plant, lacking Spirit Root, and even its intelligence... cough, very high, very high. Hiss, Qing Cha, if you bite me again, I'll bite you back!"

Chu Jiantian glanced at the uncle and nephew without saying a word.

Ju Yunxiu gracefully bowed. "Cultivating the Qing Cha Cultivation is arduous. According to this young brother, is there another ingenious method?"

Chu Jiantian hesitated for a moment. "Have you tried the methods of Demon Cultivator?"

Qin Yi immediately said, "No, I'm an expert on this. Demon Cultivator first need to be a complete life form to be considered to have something similar to Spirit Root. Moreover, Demon Cultivator are particularly concerned with bloodlines, which is quite annoying."

"Then..." Chu Jiantian, "Would those kinds of treasures that alter the characteristics of plants be considered as altering her bloodline?"

"... How will it change? From green tea to lemon tea?"

Chu Jiantian shook his head. "I don't know, but I do know that some plants are born with certain characteristics... it's just that it's quite difficult to achieve... However, this young lady still has a hundred or two hundred years to live, so there's no rush. We can use those treasures that preserve the plant's vitality to extend it for a while, and the rest depends on human effort."

Qin Yi paused, exchanged a glance with Ju Yunxiu, and their eyes suddenly lit up.

This reminder came at a good time.

Ju Yunxiu felt that any opportunity was good, but Qin Yi understood even better: it was just Innate Item, and he could find seven for Liusu, so what was wrong with finding one for Qing Cha?

Moreover, among the items required for Liusu, there is a key word: Jianmu (建木).

If we have the fruit of the Jianmu tree, can we also have its leaves?

Liusu understood Qin Yi's meaning and quickly transmitted her voice. "There should be one, and this method should be feasible."

Qin Yi was overjoyed. "Brother Chu, do you know where the Jianmu tree is? I've heard it's overseas?"

"Jianmu is just a legend; none of us have ever seen it... even our ancient texts only mention it vaguely," Chu Jiantian. "If it exists, it could only be in the far sea, in the deepest part of the ocean."

Qin Yi took the Qing Cha hanging on his arm. "Don't bite that brat. Just wait, your martial uncle will help you modify your body one day, and maybe even improve your IQ!"
