Chapter 536: Soul Condensing Immortal Pond (2/2)

Waiting for Liu Fan to leave, Mo Wuji then turned to Lin Gu and said, ”Follow me to my pill house and we’ll talk in detail.”

Lin Gu was naturally elated; it was already an extreme success that she managed to convince Mo Wuji to be willing to talk to her.

Mo Wuji’s pill house was not in a remote area, nor was it far from the Transfer Tower. As they casually strolled back, they only needed an hour to reach his pill house.

”Big Brother!” Just as Mo Wuji entered the store, Dou Hualong stood up in pleasant surprise. It had been close to 2 years since they last met; Dou Hualong’s cultivation was much more stable than when Mo Wuji first met him.

Mo Wuji patted Dou Hualong’s shoulder, ”The store isn’t open yet, what are you doing here.”

Dou Hualong snickered, ”Even though the store hasn’t officially opened, I have been here advertising it. That way, when we open, everyone would know about us.”

Mo Wuji took out a storage ring and handed it to Dou Hualong, ”This ring contains pills. Separate them according to tiers then prepare for our grand opening.”

”Yes, big brother.” Dou Hualong excitedly accepted the ring. Every day, he had been cooping himself here in the store with nothing to do. He was worried that he might just wither here.

”Oh right, the price of the pills and the opening of the store will be left to you. There’s no need to ask me.” With that, Mo Wuji gestured to Lin Gu, then walked to the second floor of the store.

Waiting for Lin Gu to sit down, Mo Wuji said firmly, ”Lin Gu, I have to be honest with you. Even though I am an Honored Grade Pill King, I don’t know much about treating illnesses. You truly found the wrong person.”

Lin Gu hurriedly stood up, anxiety lined her voice as she said, ”I also don’t know who else I can find. You’re the most impressive pill king I know, I…”

Even Lin Gu didn’t know what else she could say; Mo Wuji was a rare Honored Grade Pill King, and he was even able to escape from the fogged Broken Ruins, so he definitely wasn’t a simple person. More importantly, it was just as she had said, the best pill king she could find was Mo Wuji. In the eyes of an average cultivator, a pill king could basically be treated as an immortal doctor.

Mo Wuji lifted his hand and stopped Lin Gu, ”Let me ask you a few questions, do you know about the Soul Condensing Immortal Pond?”

Lin Gu was slightly startled; even though she didn’t understand why Mo Wuji would ask her about the Soul Condensing Immortal Pond, she still nodded, ”I do.”

”Can we talk about that?” Mo Wuji was instantly spirited; his voice even contained a new sliver of emotion.

Feeling the change in Mo Wuji’s attitude, Lin Gu’s emotions also became slightly uplifted as she hurriedly explained, ”The Soul Condensing Immortal Pond is within the void between the Six Paths Immortal Domain and the Underworld. The Soul Condensing Immortal Pill can condense one’s soul and primordial spirit, allowing a cultivator that still possesses his fleshly body to come back to life.”

”Is this true or false?” Mo Wuji was almost standing up.

Lin Gu nodded, ”It’s true. The Six Paths Immortal Domain Heavenly Emperor’s daughter, Gai Feiyan, died due to heavy injuries. Because the Heavenly Emperor Palace’s people managed to arrive in time, they were able to preserve Gai Feiyan’s fleshly body. Thereafter, the Devil Domain’s Heavenly Emperor used a Tier 9 Underworld Heart Flower, and at the Soul Condensing Immortal Pond, he called back for Gai Feiyan’s soul which had to be fully dispersed. This brought her back to life…”

”Wait, you’re saying that that the Underworld Heart Flower calls back the soul which has yet to be dispersed, and not simply bring her back to life?” Mo Wuji immediately caught the main point.

Even though he wanted to save Cen Shuyin, he had some apprehensions in his heart. He was worried that after Cen Shuyin came back to life, she wouldn’t be the same Cen Shuyin. However, if he could call back Cen Shuyin’s original soul that was in the Underworld, then that wouldn’t happen.

”Of course,” Lin Gu said resolutely, ”if the cultivator simply came back to life, then how would we know that he wasn’t possessed by some other primordial spirit?”

”Are there any conditions?” Mo Wuji’s tone became urgent.

Lin Gu nodded, ”Yes, typically, the time since the death cannot be too long. The moment it exceeds 49 years, then it would be extremely hard even if you have the Underworld Heart Fruit. After 100 years, it would basically be impossible to call the soul back. Unless you have some great sacred art which allows you to enter the Underworld.

The Underworld is incomparably vast and it is even separated into different levels. Regardless whether a person was a mortal or cultivator, if his soul wasn’t destroyed when he died, his soul would end up in the Underworld. In the Underworld, the souls would search for the chance to reincarnate. Also, the Soul Condensing Immortal Pond isn’t a place that we can easily enter…”

Mo Wuji suddenly bowed to Lin Gu, ”Lin Gu, I have a friend that died in the cultivation world. Her fleshly body is complete and preserved. I hope to be able to enter the Soul Condensing Immortal Pond and call her soul which is in the Underworld, and I need Lin Gu’s help for that. As long as you’re willing to help, whether or not I am able to treat your mother, I will definitely try my best.”

When Lin Gu heard Mo Wuji’s words, she finally understood why he would ask her about the Soul Condensing Immortal Pong. However, this matter was hard, even for her. Not anyone could simply enter the Soul Condensing Immortal Pond.

As she thought of how she was also asking Mo Wuji for help, Lin Gu gritted her teeth and said, ”I can help you get into the Soul Condensing Immortal Pond. But even if you enter the Soul Condensing Immortal Pond, it would be useless if you don’t have the Underworld Heart Flower or other similar immortal herbs. Without such herbs, you are completely unable to let the soul which is in the Underworld to feel its fleshly body. And the more Underworld Heart Flowers you use, the higher your chance of recalling the wandering soul. However, every strain of the Underworld Heart Flower is a priceless treasure, much less many strains.”
