Three days later, Yuan Ming went to Toad Valley on time, and in the first stone house in the valley, he found Zhao Tong, who was lying down reading a book and reading with relish.

"Senior Brother Zhao, how is it, did you get the marrow fluid?" As soon as they met, Yuan Ming asked.

Zhao Tong glanced at Yuan Ming with slanted eyes, closed the book in his hand with some reluctance, stretched his waist, and then slowly took out a transparent glass vial from his arms and shook it, there was some viscous black liquid in it, hanging on the wall of the bottle and sliding left and right.

"You don't have to worry about me. No, I got the thing, but I got two hundred contribution points, and the goods were both confiscated, and the children were not deceived. Zhao Tong shook his head and said.

"Profiteers!"

Yuan Ming frowned when he heard this, and after secretly scolding himself, he asked tentatively: "I said this is too much...... Why don't you lend me two hundred first, and then pay you back when I have one? ”

Sure enough, he gained a white eye from Zhao Tong.

"Borrow two hundred? You can really open your mouth? It's better to say that you can grab it directly! My shop is small, and I don't take credit! If you think about it again, do you have anything worth it, and you can use it as collateral. Zhao Tong said angrily.

Yuan Ming frowned and groaned, the valuable things on his body, not to mention the incense burner, but there were spiritual grass and other things that he had recently obtained from the misty island, even if they were converted into contribution points, there was still a big gap between two hundred points.

Other than that, it's the treasures left behind by Master Kuroki.

"I think your storage bag is good, why don't you mortgage it first, and then redeem it when you have contribution value, how about it?" Zhao Tong raised his eyebrows and said.

"If you can get the marrow fluid from Elder Umong, you must have already settled the bill, I'm afraid you haven't been eyeing my storage bag for a long time, right?" Yuan Ming said with a glare.

"You have to have other valuable things on you, just exchange them, what's the use of saying so much?" Zhao Tongman didn't care.

"The storage bag was temporarily lent to me by the owner of the third cave, and it cannot be used as a mortgage." Yuan Ming shook his head.

Master Kuroki's storage bag was naturally hidden, and he didn't dare to reveal it in front of people.

"Then what are you talking about, wait for you to save again, count me unlucky, this thing is not good enough to rot in my hands." Zhao Tong spread his hands and said helplessly.

"Look at this thing." Yuan Ming said, raising his hand to wipe the storage bag on his waist.

A piece of fire chalcedony immediately appeared in his hand.

"Yo, fire chalcedony! That's good stuff, where did you get it? Zhao Tong's eyes lit up and he said immediately.

"Luckily, when I went out on a mission, I picked it up." Yuan Ming said lightly.

"Picked up? What kind of shit luck can pick up this big treasure, can you pick up another one for me? Zhao Tong shouted.

"You just say you can't change it, right?" Seeing the greed in Zhao Tong's eyes, Yuan Ming's confidence was enough.

"Change, why don't you change?" Zhao Tong immediately said with a smile on his face.

"What's the matter with your profiteer's face?" Yuan Ming pretended to frown.

Zhao Tong restrained his smile and put the marrow fluid in Yuan Ming's hand seriously: "Uncle Yuan, don't you want to make quenching body fluid, don't delay your precious time, I can't afford it!" ”

"Grimace grass and purple core pollen are also for me." Yuan Ming said.

"It's been ready for a long time." Zhao Tong immediately leaned over, picked up a cloth bag from his feet, and handed it to Yuan Ming.

After Yuan Ming took it, he handed him the fire chalcedony, and without saying a word, he turned around and left.

"Hey, did you forget, there are still two contribution points that I haven't given me?" Zhao Tong hurriedly reminded him.

"What do you say? The wind is too strong to hear clearly......" Yuan Ming's voice came suddenly, and his body had already run quickly towards the valley mouth.

……

Night.

Yuan Ming looked at the grimace grass, purple core pollen, black scale fruit, and marrow fluid on the table, and asked, "Now you can tell me what you want these things for, right?" ”

On the table in front of him, a silver cat squatted gracefully, its eyes lowered.

"Out-of-body feeling?" The cold and ethereal voice of the silver cat sounded in Yuan Ming's mind, but he didn't mean to answer.

"I tried it last time, and it feels pretty good, I have the illusion of being like a fairy, that is, I can't get too far away from my body, and I don't feel like it's of much use." Yuan Ming said honestly.

"If you are too far away from your body, you will already be gone." Although the silver cat is a sound transmission, its mocking tone is full of ridicule.

"Last time, I wanted to ask, why is that?" Yuan Ming asked.

"During the Qi refining period, the divine soul is formless and substantial, fragile and abnormal, and cannot resist the external wind, especially in autumn." Silver Cat said.

"Why is that?" Yuan Ming was puzzled.

Regarding these contents, none of the materials about soul cultivation that I have read before have mentioned them.

"The five elements in autumn belong to gold, and the rest should be thought of by yourself." The silver cat's tone seemed to be a little impatient.

"Oh, I see, wind is water, gold is water. It is no wonder that in the Central Plains countries, there are often autumn queens, and the wind is the strongest after the autumn, which can dissipate the souls of the dead as soon as possible, so that the remnants of the souls will not remain in the world and harm the living. Why ...... that," Yuan Ming said thoughtfully.

"Shut up, I'm not here to explain this to you." Before Yuan Ming could ask, he was interrupted impatiently by the silver cat.

"Isn't this the out-of-body spirit you mentioned first, as soon as this is far away from the body, it feels like the connection with the body is weakened, and it is also limited by Gangfeng, what is the use of this out-of-body body?" Yuan Ming said.

"If you want to wander outside the body, you must have some sustenance, use secret techniques to help the soul refine the form, and let you find those kinds of spiritual materials, and then use them to refine the most basic refining elixir." Silver Cat said.

"Now, everything is here, say, what's next?" Yuan Ming's heart skipped a beat when he heard the term Divine Soul Refining, and he asked.

The silver cat didn't speak, raised one of its front feet, and its paws swiped lightly on the table, and a silver light flashed, and there was already a droplet-shaped white porcelain vial on the table.

"What is this?" Yuan Ming frowned.

"The blood of the white-feathered raven." Silver Cat said.

When Yuan Ming heard this, he suddenly had doubts in his heart.

He knew that this white-feathered raven, although it had a white character in its name, was not white, and its black feathers were all around, only a pinch of white feathers at the center of the eyebrows, and it was one of the most common birds in the 100,000 mountains.

"My Divine Soul Refining has something to do with this thing? Could it be that the thing that refines the shape is this bird? That's too ordinary, isn't it? Yuan Ming had a bad guess in his heart.

The silver cat didn't speak, just looked at Yuan Ming without blinking with a pair of heterochromatic eyes.

"It has to be this?" Yuan Ming was unwilling and asked.

"Any fierce beast essence blood can be used, which determines the form of the divine soul, even if it is enhanced in the future, the basic form cannot be changed." Silver Cat said.

"You mean that my soul will change permanently? Or is it that it is only when the divine soul is manifest that it will manifest and refine the form, and after returning to the flesh, it should still change back to human form, right? Yuan Ming was a little vigilant.

"The latter." Silver Cat said.

Seeing that the silver cat had shown an impatient expression, Yuan Ming hurriedly said:

"The last question, there is no shortage of fierce beasts in the 100,000 mountains, why don't you choose the more powerful fierce beast essence blood, but choose this extremely ordinary white-feathered raven?"

"Powerful? The fierce beasts that are truly powerful in the 100,000 mountains, or demon beasts, are not something you can hunt at all. As for the beasts you can hunt, in my opinion, they are no different, or even inferior, from the white-feathered raven. The silver cat's tone did not hide the slightest ridicule, and it was rare to say a long list of words.

"I'm sorry, this is related to my future cultivation, or please tell me clearly, why did you choose the White Feather Raven, otherwise I can't accept such an arrangement." Yuan Ming pondered for a moment and said in a resolute tone.

The silver cat stared at Yuan Ming for a long time, and saw that Yuan Ming was unmoved, so he was patient and transmitted the sound into Yuan Ming's sea again.

"Although your divine soul is stronger than your peers, your cultivation qualifications are too poor, for a long time in the future, you must first consider self-preservation, and strong reconnaissance ability is the first choice." The silver cat did not hide his purpose of cultivating Yuan Ming at all.

"So, I think there's more to it than that, because smaller birds are better suited for reconnaissance and have an advantage over animals like jackals, tigers, and leopards." Hearing this, Yuan Ming groaned slightly, nodded, and then asked.

"The white-feathered raven is weak but perceptive, and unlike other birds, it has a natural instinct for death. As for what kind of changes can be produced after fusion and refinement, and what kind of abilities can be obtained, it depends on your luck. The silver cat said again.

"Do you mean, there are a lot of uncontrollable factors after the Divine Soul Refinery?" Yuan Ming's heart jumped and asked.

"The result will be based on the characteristics of your divine soul and the characteristics of the ontology of the refining thing, the two will be fused, basically the perception enhancement, crisis warning, etc., as for what will be in the end, you will know after you are done. With that said, how to choose, you decide. "The silver cat has said so many things for the first time today, and the last shred of patience has obviously been exhausted.

After Yuan Ming hesitated for a long time, he nodded and said, "Since that's the case, let's start!" ”

"Bring something and come with me." The voice of the silver cat rang out.

With that, it turned and jumped out of the window and went out of the courtyard wall.

Yuan Ming hurriedly packed up his things and followed.

Along the way, the silver cat walks through the mountains and trees, and its body is often hidden between the leaves and trees.

At first, Yuan Ming didn't feel that anything was wrong, but after following for a while, he found something strange.

Before leaving the realm of the Fire Refining Hall, Yuan Ming met many fellow disciples and servants on the mountain, most of these people noticed him and greeted him, but none of them seemed to notice the existence of the silver cat.

Even though the silver cat was above his head, on a tree branch no more than a few feet away, they didn't notice it in the slightest.

If Yuan Ming hadn't followed the silver cat from the beginning and clearly knew its existence, otherwise he wouldn't have noticed its traces at all.
