Mortal: The Heavenly Spiritual Root that Begins from the Demonic Path

Yi Jue shook his head and smiled when he heard this.

"Fellow Daoist is indeed a master of formations. If that's the case, it would be rude to refuse."

"Fu family, right? I agree to your request, but I have a deal. I wonder if you are interested."

Xin Ruyin did not speak, Yi Jue spoke to himself,

"I have two conditions here. It just so happens that the Fu family has two Jindan cultivators. I will exchange one condition for the head of a Jindan cultivator."

"If you want to wipe out the entire family, there is no need. Once the Jindan cultivator dies, the Fu family will naturally disappear. I won't have to wipe out the entire family and do such a cheap thing."

"However, if you are willing to agree to my three conditions, it is not impossible to negotiate."

"First of all, your talent in formation is very strong, which is rare in my life. It is even better than some formation masters at the peak of Jindan."

"I hope you will serve me for a hundred years. During this hundred years, you must do your best in everything related to the Way of Formation and you cannot refuse."

Xin Ruyin nodded when she heard this, and then said,

"It's a fair deal, but I won't live for a hundred years. It's better to change it to before I die."

Yi Jue smiled and said,

"If you want to change it, you can, but you need to add one more thing, which is that you can't die naturally when your life span ends."

Xin Ruyin frowned slightly, obviously feeling that this one was a little strange, but she didn't say much and just agreed.

Then Yi Jue said the second condition,
"I have a secret dual cultivation technique that has a 30% chance of dissolving the Yang energy in your body. However, this method is a means of replenishing Yin with Yang. The main beneficiary is me, but for you, it can extend your life."

"My cultivation has reached a bottleneck, and your physique may be of use. I hope you can help me break through the bottleneck."

Xin Ruyin's pretty face flushed, and she said angrily,

"Shameless!"

Yi Jue said very frankly,
"You were the one who proposed it first. You don't have to agree to it, but the deal is void."

Xin Ruyin thought about the knowledge of formation in her hand, and was afraid that she got it from Han Li. No matter how she got it, Han Li was afraid that something bad had happened to him.

If she gave up just like that, Qi Yunxiao's revenge would probably not be avenged even after her death.

Thinking of this, Xin Ruyin's mind was filled with the scenes before Qi Yunxiao's death. She said in a somewhat upset tone,

"Okay, I agree."

Xiaomei looked at her young lady in surprise, and couldn't help but think of Qi Yunxiao's demeanor and the demeanor of the man in front of her, and her imagination ran wild.

However, she also knew that although she was the young lady's maid, a man like Yi Jue would not pay the slightest attention to her.

You have to know that Yi Jue was practicing the top treasure book of the Hehuan Sect, and many of his secret techniques were the secrets of the Hehuan Sect. His demeanor and temperament were like a bottle of deadly poison to some young girls who were just beginning to fall in love.

Yi Jue stood up, looked at Xin Ruyin with a smile on his face, and said,

"Please wait a moment, fellow Daoist. I'll be back soon." Then he turned into a beam of light and went out. After Yi Jue left, Xin Ruyin and Xiaomei sat opposite each other.

Xiaomei couldn't wait to speak.

"Miss, are you really ready to commit yourself to this man?"

"We don't even know this man's name or origin, and we don't even know if his appearance is real or fake."

Xin Ruyin lowered her eyes, her sight still fixed on the battle formation diagram on the table. However, a closer look revealed that the girl's sight was not focused.
"Xiaomei, what do you think a cultivator is?"

"My family once produced countless immortal cultivators, but they were all lost in the vastness of time. Now, there are only two of us left, and even my generation has been completely extinct."

"But you who have barely glimpsed a corner of this world should know what a turbulent and noisy world it is."

Xiaomei didn't know why the young lady was so serious, but she sat up straight silently.

"When you see this monk, you can't help but be attracted to him. Even I have to sigh that he is indeed a rare talent. But you know,"

"This is just a method used by monks."

"When one's cultivation is beyond the ordinary, even time cannot wash away one's existence. This is a higher-dimensional, more perfect state that we cannot help but yearn for and pursue."

"However, this world is not just about cultivating immortality. What we need to learn first is to live a good life and know what we want."

Xiaomei didn't know why, but she felt that the lady in front of her was so ethereal, as if she would leave the world in the next second. Tears filled her eyes uncontrollably.

"Miss, Xiaomei doesn't understand, but that young man has a way to keep you alive and help you get revenge, why not accept it?"

Xin Ruyin shook her head.
"It doesn't matter whether I accept it or not. Ever since he discovered us and broke into our cave, our fate is no longer in our own hands."

"He is willing to talk to us in a gentle voice. This is his upbringing, but it doesn't mean that we have the capital to resist."

"After getting involved with him, everything we have is no longer in our own hands, including my choices, including whether I choose to live or die."

Xiaomei looked at the lady in front of her with some horror and asked.

"Did that Taoist priest cast a spell on the young lady?"

Xin Ruyin looked at the ignorant girl in front of her and smiled gently without any explanation.
Yi Jue naturally would not let Xin Ruyin die, so when he took her pulse, he left a trace of spiritual power in her body. If she planned to commit suicide or take any other action, this magical power could stop her and hold on until Yi Jue arrived.

Of course, Yi Jue was very confident that this magical power would never be discovered by Xin Ruyin. Xin Ruyin naturally could not sense the means left by Yi Jue, but she was very confident in her own judgment.
"From the moment he came in, this cultivator expressed without reservation that my formation skills would be of great use to him. Xiaomei, if you found an ant with talents that amazed you, what would you do?"

"We are just like that ant."

Xiaomei remained silent for a long time. She knew that she was not as talented as the young lady, nor did she have the young lady's talent. But she knew that what her young lady believed must be the truth.

The next day, Yi Jue went straight into the cave with a human head and a golden elixir in his hands. Xin Ruyin did not recognize this head, but she had seen the aura remaining on it.

This aura was almost identical to the aura left on the wound of Qi Yunxiao's body. Just a few such remnants made Xin Ruyin unable to get rid of them no matter how hard she tried. She watched helplessly as Qi Yunxiao's vitality was devoured by the wound bit by bit until he finally died. (End of this chapter)
