Marriage Body
"So this is the so-called spiritual bead? Why didn't it respond to me no matter how hard I tried to inject internal force into it?" Xiao Yi frowned slightly and muttered to himself.
"Since you don't know what it is, why do you still kill people and steal it?" Mu Qingwan heard Xiao Yi's words and suddenly looked up.
Xiao Yi shook his head and said slowly, "That day, after I bought two spiritual herbs from your disciple when I left the black market, I saw her dying in the underground parking lot. However, her meridians were broken at that time. Even I couldn't save her. I asked her if she had any wishes, but she looked at this string of beads. I put it away, but I didn't understand the mystery of it. Since you are the main owner of this bead, I should return it to you."
Xiao Yi briefly told the general situation of that day to Mu Qingwan.
However, as soon as Xiao Yi finished his words, Mu Qingwan opened her eyes wide in disbelief and said in a dull voice, "So, you really didn't kill Linger?"
"No!" Xiao Yi nodded firmly. "And, I advise you not to continue to chase the murderer who killed your disciple."
"What do you mean?" Mu Qingwan asked in confusion.
"Because the one who killed your disciple is a cultivator at the Qi-refining Stage. Even if I face him now, I don't have the confidence to win, let alone you, who is at the Early-stage of the Earth Class." Xiao Yi said bluntly.
"A Cultivator in the Qi-refining Stage?" Mu Qingwan was shocked to hear that, but she did not show any incredible expression, which made Xiao Yi a little surprised.
"Aren't you surprised by the presence of a cultivator?" Xiao Yi couldn't help but ask.
Mu Qingwan looked up at Xiao Yi and said slowly, "You must be a cultivator, Mr. Xiao!"
"Oh?" Xiao Yi didn't expect that Mu Qingwan, whose cultivation was not high, had such good eyesight. So he didn't hide anything. He nodded and replied, "Yes!"
"Mr. Xiao, you're so young and have already stepped into the Heaven-level realm. How can ordinary warriors compare with you?" Mu Qingwan didn't raise her head and said slowly, "To tell you the truth, Mr. Xiao, I was born in a Cultivation Clan in my early years."
"Cultivation Clan?" Xiao Yi did not expect this at all.
Mu Qingwan's cultivation was not low in the secular world, but if it was in the Cultivation World, it was not even at the entry-level. Unexpectedly, she came from a cultivating family.
"It's a long story." Mu Qingwan whispered and introduced her true identity to Xiao Yi.
It turned out that the Mu Qingwan's family was located on the coast of the East Sea of Hua Country, and it was also a middle-class cultivation family. Mu Qingwan's identity was the daughter of the patriarch, and it was very noble.
However, ten years ago, there was internal strife in the family. The branch of the family killed Mu Qingwan's mother with a scheme and took the position of the patriarch. Mu Qingwan left the family, hid in Hai City, and became a small Chinese medicine doctor.
When Xiao Yi heard her words, he frowned slightly and asked in a low voice, "You're not young. Since you're from a family of cultivators, you don't lack the Cultivation Method. Then, what makes you think that your cultivation is so low?"
Hearing this, Mu Qingwan's eyes could not help flashing. It seemed that she was thinking about something. After a long time, she finally said with a determined look, "That's because my body is too special."
"Oh?" Hearing this, Xiao Yi stretched out three fingers and put them on Mu Qingwan's wrist. He began to feel the pulse. However, as soon as he touched Mu Qingwan's wrist, Xiao Yi was shocked.
"Marriage body?" Xiao Yi asked, losing his voice.
Mu Qingwan looked sad and nodded slowly.
The "Marriage body" was one of the unique body constitutions in the Cultivation World. It was difficult for people to feel the Spiritual Energy of heaven and earth. Generally speaking, the initial cultivation speed was extremely fast. However, unfortunately, it could not contain too much spiritual power at all. Once it reached a certain extent, it must be transferred to others. Otherwise, the body would suffer unbearable torture. Because of the special nature of this body's constitution, it was called the "Marriage body", which was really a pity for others.
"Since I practised to the Early-stage of Earth Class, I haven't made any progress." Mu Qingwan said sadly.
"What's the connection between the bead and your body?" Xiao Yi frowned and asked.
"This bead was found by my mother when I was very young. She spared no effort to find it for me. She even brought a set of mental cultivation methods to let me infuse the remaining spiritual power in my body slowly into it to relieve the pain in my body. She could also prevent me from being reduced to the fate of being a furnace for others. Who will inject spiritual power into it? So I said that it is useless to put this bead in other people's hands!" Mu Qingwan lowered her head and said slowly.
However, after listening to her words, Xiao Yi sneered and said, "I've heard of a way to let the Marriage body continue to cultivate, but since Miss Mu can't trust me, then I don't have to say anything more. I'll take my leave now!"
After Xiao Yi finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the door.
When Mu Qingwan heard Xiao Yi's words, it was like a bolt from the blue in her heart. She struggled to shout, "Mr. Xiao, please hold on! Every word of the Mu Qingwan is true. Mr. Xiao, why do you say that?"
Xiao Yi stopped and turned around. He said coldly, "Miss Mu, since you know that I'm also a cultivator, you shouldn't hide anything from me."
"Ah?" Mu Qingwan's face changed immediately. In the twinkling of an eye, a few drops of cold sweat came down, but she said slowly, "I, I don't understand what Mr. Xiao means."
"Do not forget, Miss Mu, that I once bought two herbs for your disciple. The herbs are not cabbages. It is a great opportunity for the world to meet one by chance, but your disciple can take it out in large quantities. When I saw this string of beads, I had already guessed that maybe there is something special in this bead that can produce spiritual herbs, but it may need a unique constitution or cultivation method to drive it. Today, Miss Mu. I have determined to return the bead to you so that I won't covet it. I guess that you will continue to buy the herbs from Miss Mu. To my surprise, Miss Mu was extremely secretive." Xiao Yi said flatly.
Mu Qingwan's expression changed dramatically, from panic to helplessness. In the end, it slowly calmed down. She hurriedly got out of bed and walked to Xiao Yi. She bowed deeply and said with some fear, "I'm sorry, nothing can be hidden from Mr. Xiao. However, although the spiritual bead can produce a first-grade herbal medicine at a speed of about ten times, it has reached an incredible level, I have to be careful of it. If it wasn't for the closed-door meditation on that day, Linger's taking care of keeping the spiritual bead, there would not be a disaster!"
Xiao Yi nodded and said, "Since you have owned the bead for so many years, you must be a careful person. It's reasonable for you to be so careful when you think about the importance of the bead to you."
"Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Xiao!" Mu Qingwan hurriedly said. After thinking for a moment, she couldn't help but say, "However, what Mr. Xiao said is that there is a way to let the marriage body continue to cultivate. I don't know whether it is true or not?"
"There is a way, but I don't know if you are willing to do it." Xiao Yi looked directly into Mu Qingwan's eyes and said calmly.
Mu Qingwan's eyes flashed. After thinking for a while, she said firmly, "As long as I can continue to cultivate, I am willing to give it a try."
Mu Qingwan raised her eyes, which were full of hope. Born in a family of cultivation, it was impossible for ordinary people to imagine that it would continue to practice. No matter how prosperous the world was, it could not be more attractive than the temptation of immortality. Mu Qingwan, which had already been desperate for her own constitution, how could she not be tempted when she heard these words at first sight?
Xiao Yi looked at her hopeful face, but he sat down and said indifferently, "I don't know if you've ever heard of a pill called 'Commensalism pill'?"
"Commensalism pill?" Mu Qingwan's expression changed.
"It seems that you have heard of it. The pill is special. You can find one person. After getting his permission, you two can take it together and then use the secret method of acupuncture to let you two reach the level of a blood connection. After that, you can get rid of your marriage body and have the same constitution as that person. You can re-cultivate it, but the drawbacks are also obvious. The person you are subject to in the future will never surpass you. Once you are higher than that person, you will transfer the spiritual Qi in your body to that person until you reach the level of the same level as that person. That's called living together," Xiao Yi said.
Hearing Xiao Yi's words, Mu Qingwan nodded and said slowly, "Yes, I have indeed heard about the Commensalism pill. However, the refining method of this kind of heaven-defying elixir has been lost for a long time. Even though I have spent countless money and efforts to inquire about the news over the years, I have never heard of anyone who can refine this kind of elixir."
"Haha, as long as you are willing, I can help you refine it. However, the material is special, and you need to search for it. In addition, you have to find such a person for you to attach to." Xiao Yi stood up and said calmly.
"What? You can refine it?" Mu Qingwan's face changed dramatically again. It was incredible. Although Xiao Yi's cultivation must be above hers, he also admitted that he was not at the Qi-refining Stage. Even if he was not at the Qi-refining Stage, how could he refine the same pill? What's more, where did he get the secret prescription for the same pill?
