Mortal Alchemy

Although Chen Ping's soul was influenced by Ji Changsheng, Chen Ping himself still dominated his consciousness.

"This woman can control second-order magical artifacts, but she didn't refine them herself. It's because Li Jizong's physical body isn't dead and is hidden somewhere, secretly granting her the authority to use the artifacts. That's how she can use them."

"But now, I'll gladly accept them."

Chen Ping squatted down and took the storage bag, the extremely high-grade defense magical artifact made of thin纱, and the second-order offensive disc from Tao Shuang'er's corpse.

Chen Ping went to the side and picked up the second-order space ring. It had a restriction on it, so Chen Ping couldn't use it for the time being.

He could only take it away for now. There were no other good things in this stone chamber. Ji Changsheng's good things were all in the space ring.

And Chen Ping didn't leave Cloud Ice Mountain directly.

Instead, he grabbed Tao Shuang'er's corpse and headed to the place where Ji Changsheng's physical body was hiding.

Chen Ping's purpose was to collect the second-order spirit fire, the Netherworld Ice Flame.

So that he could refine Foundation Establishment Pills and embark on the path of Foundation Establishment.

And this second-order spirit fire was controlled by Ji Changsheng.

But Chen Ping couldn't reveal that he had refined Ji Changsheng's soul.

The white jade flying boat flew for an hour, arriving at a place with both ice and hot springs.

"He really knows how to pick a place."

Chen Ping threw Tao Shuang'er's corpse into the hot spring with one hand.

A moment later, a powerful divine sense belonging to the Foundation Establishment stage swept over.

However, Chen Ping's soul power wasn't weak either. It's just that he hadn't entered the Foundation Establishment stage yet, so he couldn't transform his spiritual sense into divine sense.

"Humph!" Chen Ping's face turned slightly pale, and he let out a soft groan. This divine sense probing caused him to suffer a small loss, but the other party wouldn't fare any better for kicking an iron plate.

A moment later, a middle-aged man's figure emerged from below the hot spring. He looked at Chen Ping with fierce eyes, not concealing his killing intent towards Chen Ping at all:

"Junior, what have you done to Shuang'er?"

Ji Changsheng, or rather, Li Jizong.

He used his divine sense to probe Chen Ping, which led to a backlash, preventing him from using his divine sense to investigate Ji Shuang'er's situation again.

Chen Ping mimicked Ji Changsheng's expression, pinching his chin with one hand, his eyes playful, and his tone sinister:

"Shuang'er's bedroom arts are very good, she served me very comfortably. Fellow Daoist Li has good taste, and has enjoyed quite a bit."

Chen Ping, with his thirteenth level Qi Refining cultivation, wasn't very afraid of Li Jizong's Foundation Establishment cultivation.

Although the other party was a major realm higher than him, his strength had diminished by ninety percent. In order to ensure the success of the possession and retain a backup plan, he had even severed a significant portion of his soul.

The fact that he had to let Tao Shuang'er, a fifth-level Qi Refining cultivator, come forward to handle the matter of finding bait for the possession was enough to show the extent of his current strength decline.

Otherwise, Chen Ping wouldn't dare to come looking for trouble.

"Junior, you're courting death!" Li Jizong burst into anger, and his spiritual power suddenly erupted, surging towards Chen Ping.

This was genuine Foundation Establishment spiritual power. Even if Chen Ping was at his peak and his spiritual power was abundant, he didn't want to clash head-on with Li Jizong, lest he suffer serious injuries.

He had three second-order talismans in his hand, and he immediately tore one of them, poured spiritual power into it, and aimed it at Li Jizong.

"Boom!!!"

In an instant, a great fire blazed from Chen Ping's hand, suddenly transforming into a huge fire dragon, about a dozen zhang long, and pounced towards Li Jizong.

Not only did it shatter Li Jizong's spiritual power, but the ice and snow within fifty zhang melted instantly, and even the hot spring pool disappeared.

"I want you dead!" Li Jizong roared angrily, ignoring his Dao injuries and using all his strength to attack Chen Ping.

The surging spiritual power erupted, creating a kind of overwhelming momentum, and the void within a dozen zhang was stained by spiritual power.

Chen Ping's pupils shrank: "This is Foundation Establishment spiritual power, it's indeed very powerful!"

Liquid spiritual power was much stronger than his mist-like spiritual power.

But Chen Ping didn't panic!

Chen Ping was very clear about Li Jizong (Ji Changsheng)'s state.

His eyes were calm, his actions cautious, and he tore another second-order talisman.

"Rumble!!!"

A torrential thunder storm suddenly erupted from Chen Ping's hand, engulfing Li Jizong's figure.

And the fifty zhang radius instantly turned into pitch-black coke under the lightning and thunder.

After a while, the scene was silent.

"Fellow Daoist Li, are you alright?" Chen Ping stood far away and sent a greeting.

He was very clear about Li Jizong's situation. Because this person was lustful, he had given the second-order offensive magical artifact to Tao Shuang'er for self-defense, which led to him not having a suitable item at this time.

"Cough cough... Junior, you are despicable enough..." In a stone pit, Li Jizong was dark all over, emitting a pungent burnt smoke.

Tao Shuang'er turning into ashes had already made Li Jizong so angry that he lost his mind.

He didn't care about the various abnormalities of Chen Ping finding him. At this moment, he had only one thought, and that was to kill the Qi Refining junior in front of him.

"Azure Lotus Sword, go!!!"

Li Jizong pinched his fingers with both hands, and a cyan sword light phantom emerged from his fingers, rushing straight at Chen Ping.

This was sword dao power. Li Jizong had no sword in his hand, and forcibly activating this technique was at the cost of his heart's blood secret technique.

Chen Ping's pupils shrank, and he immediately took out the second-order disc magical artifact in his hand and forcibly activated it.

"Boom!!!"

A majestic spiritual power fluctuation emerged, and layers of spiritual light appeared on the jade disc, colliding with the spell unleashed by Li Jizong.

An explosion sounded.

"How can you have my magical artifact..." Seeing the magical artifact in Chen Ping's hand, Li Jizong's face changed drastically, his eyes darkened, and he seemed to realize something.

Why could a Qi Refining cultivator activate his magical artifact?

He hadn't authorized it to him.

Chen Ping sneered, looking at Li Jizong with cold eyes: "Fellow Daoist Li, Fellow Daoist Ji, I call you that, don't you understand what's going on?"

Li Jizong's expression changed drastically, and his body couldn't help but tremble: "This... how is this possible..."

"Possessing you, a Qi Refining junior, actually failed?"

"Or are you also a cultivator of the same generation as this seat?"

"What exactly..." Chen Ping once again activated the jade disc magical artifact in his hand, attacking Li Jizong, his voice cold and幽, like a ghost催魂:

"When Fellow Daoist arrives below, you will naturally know."

Li Jizong's face showed panic, feeling a strong threat of death.

"Five Ghost Sky Net Escape!!!" Li Jizong immediately prepared to burn the last of his blood essence in his body to escape.

His whole body glowed with a layer of red light, preparing to leave this place.

However, Chen Ping had refined Ji Changsheng's soul, and knew his methods clearly.

Chen Ping also knew where the Five Ghost Sky Net Escape would land.

So the last second-order talisman in his hand suddenly erupted at this moment.

"Golden Sword Talisman!!!"

Several golden sword shadows erupted from Chen Ping's hand, instantly slashing towards the calculated location.

"No!!!" Li Jizong's eyes widened, filled with endless despair and terror.
