The Demonic Cultivator In Zombie World novel Chapter 220

Chapter 220: Where Can One Find the Top-tier Nascent Soul Technique?

After securing the Taotie Tree seed, Chu Xuan returned to his main base. With the Nascent Soul spiritual substances already in hand, the only thing missing was a suitable Nascent Soul technique.

"Finding a Nascent Soul technique is actually easier than acquiring Nascent Soul spiritual substances," he mused. "Families that have produced Nascent Soul cultivators generally possess such techniques, and they are often available at auction houses. However, finding the most suitable technique for myself is crucial."

Chu Xuan returned to Heavenly Sword City on the extraterritorial battlefield, where three days had passed since the grand battle involving four Nascent Soul cultivators.

The sudden disappearance of Shangguan Hao had left Heavenly Sword City leaderless. Seizing the opportunity, the Majestic Sword Sect sent a new Nascent Soul cultivator, Ximen Changqing, to take control.

The city's name remained unchanged, and while the Shangguan family still existed, their power had significantly diminished. Now, monks from the Majestic Sword Sect managed Heavenly Sword City, effectively turning it from the private domain of the Shangguan family into the second major city of the Majestic Sword Sect.

The newly appointed Nascent Soul cultivator took vigorous action against the marauding cultivators around the city, which suited Chu Xuan well. This would likely attract more people to Heavenly Sword City to do business and auction treasures acquired from the extraterritorial battlefield.

Chu Xuan did not enter the second-tier cave dwelling he had previously rented but instead re-entered Heavenly Sword City with a new identity.

"Identity, name, and purpose of visit," a cultivator from the Majestic Sword Sect asked calmly.

Chu Xuan replied with a smile, "He Liang from the Mystic Azure Star's Heavenly Seal Sect. I have some knowledge of alchemy and am here to conduct some small-scale business."

The expression of the Majestic Sword Sect cultivator immediately turned more respectful. He handed over an identity jade slip, saying, "Alchemist He, please, you are most welcome."

In the world of cultivation, formation masters were held in the highest regard, followed closely by alchemists. To many cultivators, alchemists were highly sought after.

Chu Xuan, having absorbed the Acquired Miraculous Jade and developed the "True Blood Elixir Body," indeed had a fair understanding of alchemy. With his current abilities, he could casually produce any pill below the Nascent Soul stage. Even if the quality was subpar, adding a drop of essence blood could forcibly enhance the pill's quality. However, he would never add his essence blood to pills intended for others, as it could potentially leave evidence that could be used against him.

Upon entering Heavenly Sword City, Chu Xuan first rented a second-tier cave dwelling and then leased a shop in the city's Pill Pavilion. He then began to operate under the genteel guise of "Alchemist He," focusing solely on acquiring a suitable Nascent Soul technique without stirring up trouble. Of course, if someone insisted on causing trouble, he wouldn't mind hastening their journey to the afterlife.

In Heavenly Sword City, one month later, Chu Xuan was earning the respect and gratitude of many for his alchemical skills.

A Golden Core cultivator, almost in tears and on the verge of kneeling, praised him, "Alchemist He, several alchemists in this city have tried and failed, yet you succeeded in creating the pill! I cannot thank you enough!"

Chu Xuan helped the cultivator up, saying modestly, "Creating medicines is simply my duty."

"No need for excessive thanks, just focus on your cultivation with this pill," Chu Xuan advised.
