Chapter 42 Spirit Gathering Elixir
Chapter 42 Spirit Gathering Elixir
"This is a Spirit Gathering Elixir, which can reshape your physique in a short time. However, even with the Spirit Gathering Elixir, breaking through to the Spirit Master realm will not be an easy task. You will have to rely on your own efforts for the rest of the journey."
Spirit Gathering Elixir —
Although Green Ivy had always stayed in the inner quarters, she had heard of the Spirit Gathering Elixir because of its great reputation.
One bottle is worth 30 million!
"Miss, this..."
"I don't like talkative people, you should know that."
"Thank you, Miss. I will definitely live up to your expectations!" Green Ivy took the porcelain bottle and held it tightly in her palm.
She had a feeling that today's decision was the best decision she had ever made in her life!
Cultivation... If one has talent, who wouldn't want to become a spiritual cultivator revered by all?
However, she came from a humble background, had no cultivation resources, and no talent.
The fact that the young lady was willing to give her this opportunity is definitely a blessing she earned in her past life.

The theft of the Netherworld Flame was a huge blow to the Mu family, and Mu Shen almost fainted upon hearing the news.
Since his legs were blown off a month ago, he has been confined to a wheelchair. With great difficulty, he managed to contact the Alchemy Sect through his old connections to receive medical treatment.
The price is the karmic fire of the underworld.
"You said the Netherworld Karmic Fire is gone?" A middle-aged man in a cloak walked out from the void.
"I...I don't know what happened either. I definitely didn't lie to you, sir."
In Tianyan Kingdom, Mu Shen, who used his status to flaunt his power and looked down on everyone, turned into a quail the moment he saw the man in black walk out, and became humble and subservient.
"Ahhh-"
An invisible hand lifted Mu Shen from his wheelchair and then slammed him to the ground.
"Big, my lord."
Mu Shen got up: "My lord, I really don't know what happened. I don't know who burned down the Mu family's storeroom! My elder brother still hasn't found that thief! Please give me a little more time, my lord. I... I will definitely present the Netherworld Karmic Fire to you."
"Heh." The man in black sneered, "What a fool! You only told me about such a good thing as the Netherworld Karmic Fire now. Mu Shen, don't forget who helped you achieve what you have today!"
"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare." Mu Shen's clothes were soaked with cold sweat. "It was my fault, I'll never dare to do it again..."
"Dare not? Do you really think I don't know what happened in Tianyan?" The man in black sneered. "Recently, a ghost doctor has appeared in the Ghost Market, and his Spirit Gathering Elixir has caused quite a stir."
"A ghost, a ghost doctor?" Mu Shen hurriedly said, "This humble servant has no idea who the ghost doctor is."
Although he had heard of him, no one except the people from the Qilin Auction House had ever seen the Ghost Doctor's true face.
I don't know if she's one of Tianyan's people.
"I'll give you three days. I need the recipe for the Spirit Gathering Elixir."
"S-lord!"
Mu Shen's smile was more like a grimace; he was merely a minor imperial advisor in Tianyan.
Even if he had a hundred times the courage, he wouldn't dare to touch the people in the Ghost Market.
Moreover, how many people are trying to find out the Ghost Doctor's identity? Yet there isn't a single clue.
"If we can't find out... hah." The man in black sneered, "Just as I helped you get to where you are today, I can also kick you down and ruin your reputation!"
"Furthermore, I want to see the Netherworld Karmic Fire within a month."
After saying this, a teleportation vortex appeared in front of the man in black, and he stepped inside.
"Sir... my leg, you promised to heal my leg."
Mu Shen quickly replied.
"Heh, a worthless life, does it even deserve my attention?" The man in black stopped in front of the vortex array. "You can talk about it again when you get the Netherworld Karmic Fire."
After saying this, the old man turned and entered the teleportation array, disappearing without a trace.
"Outrageous!" Only after the man in black left did Mu Shen dare to get angry, but the sharp pain in his legs made him curl up into a ball.
"grown ups."
"Come in!"
Mu Shen had already climbed into the wheelchair and sat down, taking two painkillers before he felt better.
"My lord, you guessed correctly, Jun Wuchen's tomb is empty!"
"What! He's not dead!"
Mu Shen clenched his fists tightly. How could Jun Wuchen not be dead! Back then, the poison he had given Jun Wuchen was extremely potent. Even if he hadn't died, he wouldn't have been able to linger on for long. How could he still be alive after five years?
"Jun Tianlan must have noticed something; all the spies we planted in the Jun family have been eliminated." In the past, if we wanted to know something, we could just send those spies to investigate.
Now, even our most important spy, Wang An, is dead.
There wasn't a single clue what had happened in the main courtyard of the Jun family.
"What a Jun Tianlan!" Mu Shen gritted his teeth in anger. "Jun Wuchen isn't dead! He really isn't dead! What a Jun Tianlan! What a Jun family! Hahaha!"
Mu Shen laughed in fury. Back then, he had gone to great lengths to kill the genius Jun Wuchen, and now he was being told that Jun Wuchen was alive?
This is even more painful than killing him!
"My lord, why don't we tell His Majesty about this?"
"His Majesty won't believe it."
After all, I witnessed Jun Wuchen's burial back then.
"Someone, prepare the visiting card. I will go to see the Ghost Doctor in person."
Now only the Ghost Doctor can turn the Mu family's predicament around.
The guard hesitated, wanting to speak but then stopped. The Ghost Doctor had become famous overnight because of his Spirit-Gathering Elixir.
There are countless people who want to see the Ghost Doctor these days. Is our master being a little too...confident?
However, the guard still went, and to his surprise, the Ghost Doctor actually agreed.
Mu Shen was also quite surprised, but this was ultimately a good thing, if he could win over the Ghost Doctor.
Why should he worry about not being able to bring down the Jun family?
Star-catching tower.
The largest restaurant in the capital, where celebrities and dignitaries gather.
Mu Shen arrived early to wait, but after three full hours, the Ghost Doctor still hadn't arrived.
"The Ghost Doctor really accepted the appointment?" Mu Shen asked skeptically. "Did you hear me correctly?"
The trusted guard was quite certain: "That's right, it was Miss Mo Qingyi who said it herself, and it's also the Ghost Doctor's idea."
"That's good." Mu Shen frowned. If it weren't for the fact that the other party was of unusual status, he would have been furious long ago.
Since he became the Imperial Advisor, no one has dared to make him wait this long.
Just as the sky was about to sink, a figure finally arrived, a large cloak obscuring Liu Yue's face and enveloping her entirely.
"Grand Preceptor, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting." Liu Yue walked over in a low voice.
"Not long, not long," Mu Shen said with a smile.
"Someone, quickly pour tea for the Ghost Doctor!"
"Yes." The maid stepped forward, poured a cup of tea, and placed it in front of Jun Liuyue.
From within the cloak, a delicate, fair hand emerged and covered the teacup.
Mu Shen was slightly startled. He thought the Ghost Doctor was at least an old man in his forties or fifties, but he didn't expect him to be a young man.
But she lowered her voice, so Mu Shen couldn't tell if it was a man or a woman, plus Mo Qingyi was behind her.
Mu Shen did not doubt her identity and said with a smile, "Today I am representing the Alchemy Sect."
