Chapter Seventy Two – Seeing Guests (2/2)

A grey smoke suddenly appeared out of the boiling liquid.

Zuo Mo mentally thought it was going wrong but before he could react, the liquid turned into a ball of ash.

“Damn it!”

Zuo Mo sat dispiritedly. After continuously making dan, his ling energy was almost exhausted. His eyes were bloodshot and his expression tired. The dan room was filled with the remnants of failed dan, the smell was nasty.

Up until now, he hadn’t succeeded once.

However, it wasn’t as though he hadn’t learned anything. Today, just in this last attempt, he finally found the problem.

In the various kinds of materials for the fasting pill, there was one material that couldn’t tolerate such a high intensity of sun essence. Sun essence might look light and small, but it was much stronger than the li fire seal formation. This ling grass called Thousand Jade Grass, it couldn’t endure being processed by such a strong flame.

He needed to find a ling grass that could endure the increase in the essence of the sun, with similar attributes to Thousand Jade grass. Zuo Mo couldn’t help but have a headache. This was the problem that he was most worried about encountering. When it came to the attributes and the theory of the medicine, he was totally blind.

He gave a sigh. It seemed that his idea would have to be realized in the future, but he was still unsatisfied inside. He decided to take a good look in Master’s record room to see if he could find a ling grass similar in effect as thousand jade grass.

As he pondered, he walked out of the dan room.

“Shixiong!” Xu Qing saw Zuo Mo walk out of the dan room and her eyes brightened. She hurriedly came over, “That big ship has come to our sect!”

“Big ship? What big ship?” Zuo Mo’s mind was scattered and asked instinctively.

“Doesn’t Shixiong remember? The big ship that had flew above us before!” Xu Qing reminded.

“The big ship that flew over!” Zuo Mo suddenly shook and was startled away. That extremely intimidating ship had left a big impression on him. He hurriedly asked, “What’s the ship doing here?”

“Don’t know,” Xu Qing shook her head, “They seemed to be conversing very well with the shibo, but I heard that they were here investigating the Stars in Daytime.”

“Stars in Daytime?” Zuo Mo felt his throat tighten. He suddenly thought of this term that the pink paper crane had also said to him. For some reason, he seemed to feel that this Stars in Daytime was connected to him.

“Did Shixiong forget? Oh, right, I remember! Shixiong had been in zhuji that day!” In a piteous tone, she said, “Pity that Shixiong hadn’t seen it. Stars coming out in daylight, it’s very rare!”

Zuo Mo felt that his body was slightly cold. If before, he had just felt that it was connected to him, then now he was certain that this Stars in Daytime was definitely connected to him! How could there be such a coincidence?

Just him, he definitely wouldn’t connect the apparition with himself.

He couldn’t, but Pu Yao could!

Thinking about it, he left Xu Qing and quickly went back into the dan room.

Entering the dan room, Zuo Mo entered his sea of consciousness. Pu Yao was idly listening to the sound tablet.

“Pu, that Stars in Daytime, did you cause it?” Zuo Mo felt his voice was trembling.

“Me?” Pu Yao didn’t even blink and crisply shook his head, “No!”

Zuo Mo instantly released a breath. Pu Yao might have many flaws but he never refused to admit what he did.

But Pu Yao’s following words frightened Zuo Mo half to death, “Not me, it was you!”

“Me?” Zuo Mo pointed at his own nose and asked dumbly.

“Humph, a certain dead ghost needed star energy and borrowed your body,” Pu Yao was clearly laughing at his misfortunes, “At that time, I already said, he went way over.”

Zuo Mo’s head was in the clouds. He stammered, “You mean, there’s someone else here?”

Before Pu Yao could reply, Zuo Mo heard someone knocking on the door, “Shixiong, the sect leader is requesting for you to go to Wu Kong Hall, there are guests that want to meet you!”

Translator Ramblings: People are wanting to see Zuo Mo. And Zuo Mo now knows that there is more than just Pu Yao inside his head.
