Ji Ning's heart skipped a beat.
Xue Long Shan? Bo Zi Shan? Is this Bo Zi Shan a Zifu disciple of Xue Long Shan?
Ji Ning suppressed the thought for the time being and continued to plead: "My mother is critically ill, I'm afraid even the Ji clan doesn't have a way to save her. Please, Mu Zhenren, go to my Ji clan's Western City Manor and save my mother's life."
Mu Xiao looked at Ji Ning's expression and couldn't help but sigh: "I'm not good at treating illnesses, but I'll go take a look too. If I can save him, I naturally will. If I can't..."
"Really willing to go, Ji Ning was grateful beyond words." Ji Ning said repeatedly.
"Come here, you beast!" Mu Xiao Zhen Ren suddenly turned around and shouted towards the distance. The black-haired zombie wrapped in Corpse Qi from afar obediently walked over, its green eyes showing a hint of fear as it looked at Mu Xiao Zhen Ren.
Mu Xiaozi waved his hand and a purple coffin appeared in front of him.
"Enter." Mu Xiao gave the order.
The black-haired zombie obediently opened the coffin and jumped in, lying flat, then covered the coffin lid.
"This is a Corpse Coffin." Mu Xiao Zhen waved his hand and put away the Corpse Coffin, saying to Ji Ning, "This black-haired zombie has just lost its master, letting it roam free will only bring disaster to one side. So when I was talking to you just now, I split out a thread of yuan force to refine and control it."
Ji Ning nodded.
"Don't worry, the things that Baozi Shan left behind I won't take," Mu Xiao said truthfully. "It's just that this black-haired zombie is currently beyond your power to refine and subdue, so I'll take it away."
Mu Xiao Zhen Ren looked towards the distant corpse of Bo Zi Shan, and the corpse of Bo Zi Shan, along with the boat-shaped magic treasures, the duster magic treasure, the blood-red banner magic treasure, and the beehive containing poisonous insects, all flew over to him. Mu Xiao Zhen Ren stretched out his hand, and a ring detached from Bo Zi Shan's arm and flew into his palm.
"This is the Storage Treasure of the Entry Stage." Mu Xiao Zhen Ren said, "You also can't refine it, so I'll help you take out all the items."
Wow~~~~
Mu Xiaozhen quickly refined the storage ring, and a large amount of miscellaneous items suddenly appeared on the ground. There were Taoist soldiers' armor, food, some gold and miscellaneous items, materials, and bottles and jars placed there.
"Look at your complexion, you should take the Heartbreak Powder." Mu Xiao Zhen waved her hand and a small bottle appeared on the ground. The bottle had the words "Heartbreak Antidote" written on it. Apparently, there were many bottles and jars around, if they weren't labeled clearly, even she herself might pick up the wrong one.
Mu Xiao Zhen took out the bottle stopper, glanced at it, nodded and said: "This is an antidote, eat one. These miscellaneous items, the entry-level treasure you also pick up... Now you can't refine it, wait until you become a Zi Fu Xiu Shi then you can refine it. No need to think too much, for you it's a treasure, but for me these are not worth mentioning."
"Thank you, Master." Ji Ning was very grateful.
Although it's clear that these things are not worth mentioning to the other party, Mu Xiao is indeed a straightforward and efficient person who treats even his own congenital spiritual pet with such courtesy, how can Ji Ning not feel grateful?
"This kindness I will definitely repay in the future." Ji Ning thought to herself.
Ji Ning swallowed the medicinal pellet that emitted a refreshing fragrance, similar to a sugar pill. As soon as it entered his abdomen, it dissolved instantly and quickly spread warmth throughout his body. The hidden poison of the Heart-Eating Powder in his body seemed to melt like snow, disappearing completely. The pain all over his body also disappeared, and the red spots on his face faded away.
"This is the insect nest." Mu Xiao pointed to the insect nest where a large number of poisonous insects lived, "The insect nest itself is a first-class treasure, you can refine it, but the large number of poisonous insects inside... To control them with your mind, you need to become a Zifu cultivator and slowly refine them with yuan force. Before you become a Zifu cultivator, remember to send some food in to feed them from time to time, don't let them starve to death, or they will devour each other."
Ji Ning nodded: "Understood."
"Hurry up and refine the wasp nest, oh, there's also a book on refining poisonous insects here, it's a classic from Snow Dragon Mountain, not particularly valuable, but the basics of refining Gu worms are all here." Mu Xiao Zhenren spotted a beast skin book among Bo Zi Shan's belongings at a glance. "Refining poisonous insects is actually simple, it's just that poisonous insects are hard to find and cultivate, you don't need to rush to read this now, these are things you'll need to learn when you become a Purple Mansion cultivator."
Ji Ning took over the book, on which there were three words - "Refining Demons Record".
"This insect nest cannot be stored in the treasure storage because of the poisonous insects inside." Mu Xiao Zhenren handed the insect nest to Ji Ning, "However, the nest itself can be large or small, you can shrink it and carry it with you."
"Yes." Ji Ning replied, immediately taking over the huge black insect nest. Mu Xiaoyu had already broken down the contained spiritual energy when he brought it over, so Ji Ning was able to refine it in an instant. Otherwise, just the remaining spiritual energy left behind by Ban Zhan would have taken Ji Ning a long time to dissipate.
"Small, small, small." Ji Ning watched as the black insect nest shrank down to the size of a finger, then flipped over a small cloth bag and directly put the nest inside. The cloth bag was placed in his bosom, and the magical armor he wore underwent a slight transformation, storing the cloth bag within it.
"Received."
Ji Ning waved his hand, and the numerous miscellaneous items on the ground, including some books and poisonous substances left behind by Bo Zishan, were all collected. As for Bo Zishan's various treasures that had reached the stage of law, Ji Ning did not touch them.
"These are the entry-level treasures." Mu Xiao Zhenren pointed at the blood-red banner and said, "I'll take this Wan Gui Banner with me. This is a treasure born of sin and I need to bring it back...it's also proof that I've completed my task. Leave everything else behind."
"Hmm." Ji Ning then put away all of the treasures for entering the Immortal ranks.
These entry-level treasures are of no use to me now, so I can only put them away.
"This Wan Gui Fan......" Mu Xiao Zhen Ren picked up the blood-red banner, on which the black awn was still faintly visible. "But it has tortured countless people to death, its sin is deep! This Ban Zi Shan also deserved to die, he actually used this Wan Gui Fan against you, but your divine soul has already reached the level of divine thought, how could this half-finished Wan Gui Fan shake it?"
Mu Xiao thought that Ji Ning relied on his powerful divine soul to kill those fierce ghosts one by one, but he didn't know that Ji Ning had actually used the Nüwa diagram to transcend and deliver those fierce ghosts.
"Look, this is the sin, the sin is so deep that it can be seen with the naked eye, but the merit is countless and difficult to see with the naked eye." Mu Xiao Zhenren pointed at the black awn on the crimson banner, "All of these sins are already visible to the naked eye, you can see how deep the sin is. For such a deeply sinful person, I, Long Wei, must eliminate them."
Ji Ning nodded slightly.
……
The people, including Mang Yu, were wrapped in clothes one by one, their bodies covered with bloodstains.
"Hurry up and carry him."
"Hurry up."
The black snake and the green flame bird both shouted at those servants, who dared not disobey, and went to lift, carry, and shoulder some that could not walk.
"Where is the young master?"
"What about Duke Ning?" asked Meng Yu and Ji Wuyu and others.
The black snake said: "Young master is outside."
The demon fish could still walk on its own, while Ji Wuyue was being carried. One by one, they emerged from the mountain's belly and saw the thousands of terrified Taoist soldiers, as well as the corpses scattered all over the ground, and in the distance, Ji Ning and Mu Xiaoyu were engaged in conversation.
Ji Ning turned his head to look, and upon seeing Master Meng Yu covered in blood, even Ji Wu Yue and others being carried out, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and involuntarily shouted: "Master Meng Yu."
"Prince." Meng Yu also spoke up.
"You, you..." Ji Ning didn't know what to say.
"Thank you, young master."
"Thank you, Master Ji Ning." Not only the people of the Ji clan, but also those from other tribes like the Bian He, Tie Mu, and Kou clans, who had their dantians destroyed and were reduced to mere husks of their former selves, expressed their gratitude. After having their dantians destroyed, they were nothing more than useless individuals, yet they were able to regain their vitality and return to their tribes, which was already a source of boundless gratitude for them.
Ji Ning's heart was filled with endless sorrow, for these were the enemies of the Ji Clan, but they had once been glorious innate life forms, and now they had all been crippled in their dantian.
The joy of having received so many treasures left behind by Bozi Shan was gone, and Ji Ning turned his head to look at the servants and shouted: "How many people are still trapped in this mountain?"
"The number of people who have died is probably over a million; whether half of those still alive will survive, I don't know." Suddenly, the servants spoke up nervously.
Ji Ning was taken aback.
Million?
"What a sin." Mu Xiao sighed and shook his head, "Ji Ning... there are tens of thousands of soldiers and millions of innocent survivors here. Let these two spiritual beasts deal with it. You two remember, those tens of thousands of soldiers are also innocent, they were forced by Baizi Shan, don't start killing again."
"Yes." The black snake and the green flame bird nodded in unison, they had seen the dragon's mighty display of power earlier, even if they spared those soldiers, the armor was definitely going to be taken away.
"Everything is up to you now." Ji Ning instructed.
"Don't worry." The black snake and the green flame bird both replied.
"Ji Ning, let's go, to your Ji Clan's Western City," said Mu Xiao. "I can also bring some people along."
With a wave of his hand, a leaf appeared out of thin air, growing larger and larger until it became a gigantic leaf dozens of feet long. Ji Ning saw the situation and invited Monk Fish and others from the Ji clan to come onto the leaf. As for the Kou and Bianhe clans, they would rest here temporarily, waiting for their people to come and take them away.
"Let's go."
Mu Xiao, Ji Ning and Meng Yu, among others of the Ji clan who had been stripped of their dantian, were all on a leaf. That one piece of green leaf, dozens of meters long, suddenly flew up, quickly crossing high mountains and breaking through the air to disappear into the horizon.
