Chapter 21 Alternation Method
The main hall of the talisman room.
After Yan Jun completely suppressed the hidden injuries in his body, he exhaled a long wisp of black gas, his eyes becoming even more sinister and sharp.
Seeing Qin Mo walk in, dressed in a bright red dress, Yan Jun waved a silence note, which he stuck firmly to the door, before asking indifferently:
"Still no findings?"
Qin Mo approached, bowed respectfully, and said in a low voice:
"Your Excellency, every time I tried to find an excuse to enter Cave No. 3 to investigate, he stopped me. This man is extremely wary."
"For the past two weeks, all I know is that he went to the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall and returned late at night. I guess he went to take care of something... The next day, An Mingjun came to see him."
Yan Jun picked up his teacup, took a sip, and then asked:
"Do you know who he talked to in the miscellaneous affairs hall?"
"I do not know."
Qin Mo replied, but noticed Yan Jun's face darken. She quickly knelt on the ground, explaining in a fearful manner:
"Du Jianyuan is too suspicious; he observes his surroundings even when walking. I dare not follow him lightly, lest he discover me and ruin your plans!"
Yan Jun's eyes were filled with anger, and his heart was brimming with rage.
After An Mingjun came to see him a few days ago, he knew he couldn't keep bothering Du Jianyuan.
If he delays Yin Lang's progress in gathering spiritual energy, even if he had ten lives, he probably wouldn't be enough for the other party to handle.
Ultimately, it was because the Yan family was too weak to offend the powerful Yin family.
They didn't even dare to offend the rising Ling family.
He finally found a handyman with extremely high moral character, thinking he could squeeze a lot of money out of him, but unexpectedly, Yin Lang from the Crane House intercepted him.
"Is An Mingjun truly intending to refine him into a Yin embryo for Yin Lang to absorb his Qi, or is he using this as an excuse to help him break through his bottleneck?"
Yan Jun had pondered this question more than once, after all, he had seen An Mingjun's deep affection for Du Jianyuan.
But after spending a long time in the outer sect, he also realized that some genuine feelings were just an act.
Humans are inherently selfish, especially demonic cultivators who value their own interests the most.
"Whether it's true or not, can I take [Heavenly Thunder Embers] again to break through my bottleneck...? This hope rests solely on Du Jianyuan!"
Yan Jun's eyes were deep. He had personally gone to collect the [Embers of Heavenly Thunder] before, but due to his lack of skill, the spiritual energy contained many impurities.
Therefore, he failed in the transformation of magical power and suffered a backlash from spiritual energy, resulting in serious internal injuries.
To obtain even purer [Heavenly Thunder Embers], only someone with extremely high Dao wisdom like Du Jianyuan can collect them.
Only a wise person like this knows how to extract spiritual energy with fewer impurities by taking advantage of the local conditions.
He had planned to take the spiritual energy from Du Jianyuan after he finished absorbing it, but unexpectedly, Yin Lang appeared halfway through, shattering his hopes!
"If Du Jianyuan doesn't manage to collect the [Heavenly Thunder Embers] with extremely few impurities, that's fine. But if he actually manages to collect it..."
Yan Jun secretly hardened his heart; he had no choice but to kill and rob!
Since his family couldn't support him, this was the only way he could obtain pure spiritual energy from heaven and earth in order to change his fate.
"As long as I take the elixir to remove the injuries and impurities from my body, and then consume a pure [Heavenly Thunder Ember], my magical power will definitely transform into a superior quality, and I might even be able to squeeze into the inner sect!"
When it comes to his own path, Yan Jun doesn't care how powerful the other party's background is.
Since reaching out will result in a knife wound, and cowering will also result in a knife wound, I might as well take the risk!
Yan Jun took out a jade slip from his storage bag and threw it in front of her, coldly instructing:
"This is the 'Alternating Method of Sharing the Origin of Fiery Evil,' a legitimate method of dual cultivation. As long as the two people's mental strength is in harmony, their magical power can be purified several times over, and their true essence can be refined even more..."
"Of course, if you really can't gain his trust, then you should take the initiative to let him plant a 'seed of evil fire' and be enslaved by him. You should also tell him that you were instructed by me to monitor him, so that he can feel at ease to cultivate with you and improve his cultivation."
"Du Jianyuan's cultivation is currently sluggish because of his poor aptitude. If he has this method to help him, even without any miraculous pills, he can complete the third level of Qi Refining in about a year and break through by taking Qi."
Qin Mo picked up the jade slip on the ground, scanned it briefly with her spiritual sense, and her expression changed slightly.
This can indeed be considered a legitimate method of dual cultivation, but after being modified by the demonic sect, it can also be used to enslave the other party and make them subject to one's control through the "seed of evil fire".
But Qin Mo had no choice at the moment, so she could only nod and say:
"Yes, sir."
Watching that graceful figure disappear through the door, Yan Jun felt a pang of heartache.
After all, Qin Mo was a seed he had carefully nurtured, and he had invested a lot of resources in her over the years, all for the purpose of waiting for her magic power to become pure before using this method to make her absorb all the impurities in his body.
Now, however, it only benefits Du Jianyuan.
"You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub... If I still can't extract pure [Heavenly Thunder Embers] this way, I'll have torn him to pieces!"
Yan Jun's eyes were deep and mysterious. As long as he planned and schemed every step carefully, even if he killed Du Jianyuan, Yin Lang would not know that it was him.
In his view, regardless of whether An Mingjun considered Du Jianyuan as potential material for a fertilized embryo, he was determined to kill him.
Firstly, it was for the [Embers of Heavenly Thunder], and secondly, it was for the position he was in.
If An Mingjun hadn't managed to refine Du Jianyuan into a Yin Embryo in the end, and the other party was still at the fourth level of Qi Refining, with his abilities, he would definitely have gained the attention of the manager and become the head of the service!
At that point, even if the manager doesn't punish him, how could Du Jianyuan let him off so easily?
"May you be reborn into a better family in your next life..."
Yan Jun picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and remained calm.
……
After Du Jianyuan went to the storeroom to collect the materials, he did not return directly to his cave dwelling, but instead went to the miscellaneous affairs hall to check out the spells.
While I'm at it, I'll sell the [Tranquil Heart Tea] that Qin Mo gave me earlier, and buy some spirit wine of similar value to send back to her.
After carefully examining all the spells, Du Jianyuan only took a liking to the "Nine Palaces Suspended Evil Sword Control Technique".
This technique combines offense, defense, and escape, making it capable of attacking, defending, and running away. Its only drawback is its high price, costing a full sixty spirit stones!
"It's just six hundred Fiery Talismans; I'll get them for you later!"
Du Jianyuan gritted his teeth secretly. When he went to the Thunder Cave to collect spiritual energy, he was really afraid of being injured by the lightning if he didn't have some defensive or body-refining techniques.
After all, when it comes to gathering spiritual energy, every spirit stone must be spent wisely, and we dare not be careless.
Soon, he arrived at the entrance of Cave No. 4, carrying a pot of spirit wine, and used a wisp of magic power to activate the seal.
Not long after, the stone door slid open, and the woman in the red dress inside looked delighted. She was about to invite Du Jianyuan into the cave to sit down when she saw him smile and say:
"Fellow Daoist Qin, I just passed by the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall and bought some extra spirit wine. I'm bringing some over as a token of my appreciation."
Upon hearing this, Qin Mo was slightly taken aback.
Why does this sound so familiar?
