The sword seller, dressed in red, deserves applause for the prankster.

Chi Miao: "Yes, it's out."

The Weeping Sword: "Master, your words are not precise!"

Rong Yue: "?"

Chi Miao looked at the Weeping Sword and smiled.

"Really? Then what constitutes rigor?"

The Weeping Sword floated up, ready to show its power.

"At that time... after my master found me, he pulled me out and slammed me against the left wall one moment and the right wall the next! It was my master's bravery that deeply attracted and impressed me!"

Rong Yue: "??"

Did it fall to the left? Or to the right?

That's the Weeping Sword! The sword of an immortal! Who taught you to treat an immortal's sword like that?

The Weeping Sword: "What a pity, my master resents me for searching her soul. She made me apologize and beg her. I had to kneel and beg three times before I finally managed to appease her and get her to form a contract with me."

Rong Yue: "???"

The Weeping Sword? Three kneelings and five pleas for a contract?

He looked Chi Miao up and down in disbelief.

In that instant, he felt as if the world had gone mad, had gone sick.

You think you're someone important?!

The Weeping Sword turned to Chi Miao ingratiatingly: "Master, this is more vivid and lifelike, and it highlights how difficult our contract was."

Chi Miao nodded in satisfaction: "Okay, I'll take care of this job from now on. You did a good job."

The Weeping Sword happily circled around Chi Miao several times.

Rong Yue's mind went blank; she was numb.

This isn't the Weeping Sword, it's a dog!

Rong Yue took a deep breath and it took her a while to barely accept the result.

Weird.

He will never be able to look at the world the same way again.

What a shameful world.

He pressed one hand to his forehead and asked, "Why should I?!"

Chi Miao comforted him, "Everyone has their own destiny, don't be too jealous."

Hold.

Rong Yue asked, "Why is the Weeping Sword so determined to form a contract with you?"

Chi Miao: "It said I had a familiar scent."

Rong Yue was shocked: "Could you be the reincarnation of the Heavenly Sorrow Immortal?"

Chi Miao: "What a coincidence! I thought the same thing before, but it was rejected."

Rong Yue was stunned.

"If it's not the Heavenly Compassion Immortal, then who could it be?"

"You asked it, I'm curious too."

The two of them looked at the Weeping Sword.

The Sorrowful Sword tried its best to recall, but this memory was simply too difficult to remember.

"I don't remember who my master is, but I know for sure that she is not my former master. The aura on her body... is something that my former master could only touch even with all her strength."

Rong Yue was speechless upon hearing this answer.

He looked at Chi Miao.

Even the Heavenly Sorrow Immortal could only touch a wisp of existence despite using all his power.

How terrifying would that be? The Heavenly Compassionate Immortal is an ascended being!

Who was Chi Miao in his previous life?

If it becomes that powerful, maybe then...

While Rong Yue was still in shock, she silently came to an answer in her heart.

He took a deep breath and then said.

"I'll help you."

Chi Miao: "?"

Rong Yue: "I'll help you break the Yama Curse. Although I can't break it for you directly right now, I can definitely extend your life by one or two years."

Chi Miao: "Really?"

Rong Yue: "Yes, but you have to promise me that one day in the future you will do something for me."

Chi Miao narrowed his eyes: "Are you making a deal with me?"

Rong Yue nodded: "Yes, you don't need to fulfill this promise immediately. When you are able to fulfill it... this matter may be insignificant to you, just a small favor."

Chi Miao remained silent for a moment, seemingly deep in thought.

But she quickly gave her own answer.

"make a deal."

This deal is a sure thing for her; living a year or two longer means more opportunities.

Most importantly, once she becomes that powerful... if Rong Yue makes an excessive request, even if she wants to back out, Rong Yue won't be able to do anything about it.

whee.

Rong Yue took out a recording stone: "I have recorded the scene you agreed to. If you want to go back on your word later, you'd better consider your reputation and face in the cultivation world."

He just learned this technique!

Chi Miao: "..."

Rong Yue: "What, scared?"

Chi Miao shook his head and looked at Rong Yue with an expression of concern for someone with intellectual disabilities.

"I'm just curious, at what point did I come to the impression that I'm a person who cares about my reputation?"

Rong Yue: "..."

It's hard.

The fist hardened.

We mustn't fight! We mustn't fight!

Hitting her only hurts yourself!

He is now incredibly curious.

Just who is this powerful being, so powerful that even the Heavenly Sorrow Immortal can only look up to them, that they could be so shameless!

……

After the transaction was completed, Rong Yue also told Chi Miao the method to suppress the outbreak of the Yama Curse.

They are ghost cultivators, and also known as curse cultivators.

Originating from curses, they bear countless curses on their bodies, and once the curses erupt, they will be doomed forever.

Therefore, every ghost cultivator's cultivation method will have a part specifically for suppressing curses.

This is also why Chong Shuai and Yan Ge were certain that Rong Yue had a solution.

Rong Yue opened her palm and said, "This is a Soul Refining Technique that I obtained by chance years ago. I don't know its specific grade, but it is extremely terrifying."

Chi Miao looked at the name of the cultivation technique, which was called "The Divine Demon Breaking Mind Observation Technique".

"The Divine and Demonic Mind-Breaking Grinding Method has no specific number of levels. Instead, it uses a divine grinding stone to oppress the soul at all times, causing the soul to break, be reborn, and break again under constant pressure."

"Besides being able to suppress all curses, it can also greatly increase soul power, but unfortunately... not everyone can cultivate this technique."

Chi Miao: "What do you mean by that?"

Rong Yue gave a wry smile: "The requirements for soul power are too great, and one must also have extraordinary endurance. Otherwise... it is easy for the cultivator to have their soul completely shattered under the constant pressure of the Divine Mill, lose consciousness, and become... a waste, a puppet."

"I tried to practice this technique once, but I was almost shattered after being crushed three times. But you have no other way."

"If you want a chance to survive, you have to fight for your life. There are other options, but... at most, they can only prolong your life by half a month."

Ultimately, the choice is yours.

He then took out another technique, the "Qi Clarification and Turbidity Transformation Method".

Chi Miao smiled and decisively reached out to grasp the former's hand.

Rong Yue: "Have you made up your mind?"

Chi Miao: "Half a month's lifespan is practically useless."

Rong Yue smiled and said, "Then you'd better start cultivating here and let me protect you, otherwise no one outside will even know if you die."

Chi Miao nodded and immediately began reading "The Method of Breaking Through Thoughts and Observing the Divine Demons".

I finished reading it quickly.

This technique is indeed profound and unfathomable, difficult for ordinary people to understand. Even with her extraordinary comprehension, she can only grasp the basics.

The grade of this technique is definitely not low.

She looked up at Rong Yue:

"I'm ready."

Rong Yue: "Then let's begin."

Let me see if you, little monster, can successfully save yourself and successfully cultivate this technique.

If it can be accomplished.

The entire cultivation world will belong to you in the future!

Chi Miao closed his eyes and began to circulate the "Divine Demon Breaking Thought Observation Method".

Enter the ocean of your own consciousness.

Rumble!!!

The loud noise almost ripped her eardrums apart. She opened her eyes, and the scene that greeted her made her turn pale!

She saw—
