If Feng Xia and Gu Caiyi were here, they would surely gasp in surprise.
Because the face of this Yin Soul is none other than the neighbor they had lived with for many years.
Bai Meiling!
She had clearly died, so why would she appear on Xiao Huan Mountain?
All of this dates back to the time when Luo Chen subdued the Ghost General.
He had descended the second floor of the Spirit Medicine Hall.
Luo Chen was about to leave the city and return to Xiao Huan Mountain.
However, his footsteps came to a halt at the stairway exit.
In front of a rotting wooden window.
A delicate figure was leaning on it, staring at him timidly.
Luo Chen raised his sleeve, preparing to dismiss her.
“Such an insignificant Yin Soul, a being of no consequence, dares to observe
me.”
This kind of Yin Soul, so weak it could hardly be considered a Ghost Soldier, died too abruptly.
It held no obsession, no regret, no resentment, no anger.
Even though it had died, even with a cultivation level in its lifetime, under the Ghost Realm, it could only be a weak Yin Soul.
Luo Chen’s Cleaning Technique at Finalization may not be effective against powerful Ghost Soldiers and Ghost Generals comparable to Foundation Establishment Cultivators,
but it could easily dispatch hordes of these weak Yin Souls.
During his previous entrance to the Spirit Medicine Hall, he had also swiftly cleared the area.
However, just as Luo Chen was about to wave his sleeve, his hand stopped.
He looked at the timid eyes and inexplicably felt a jump in his heart.
Subconsciously, he called out.
“Xiao Ling?”
The figure trembled then fled hurriedly as if startled.
Luo Chen paused, his mind instantly understanding something.
Without any hesitation, he chased her out of the Spirit Medicine Hall.
In the end, he stopped outside the familiar building of the Hundred Herbs Pavilion.
“Is it because I had cleared out the ghost souls nearby that she dared to come out?”
With this thought in mind, Luo Chen entered the Hundred Herbs Pavilion.
Upon entering, the interior of the building was empty, with scattered medicine cabinets everywhere.
Everything had been swept away when the Foundation Establishment Cultivator of the Hundred Herbs Pavilion had left all those years ago.
Luo Chen walked through the Hundred Herbs Pavilion.
The first floor, the second floor, even the third floor… the Yin Soul from before was nowhere to be seen.
Finally, he reached the back courtyard of the Hundred Herbs Pavilion.
In just a split second, his gaze landed on the millstone in the middle.
Luo Chen was not unfamiliar with this millstone.
There are several methods and processes for handling medicinal herbs – grinding them into powder is one.
Convenient herbs are usually processed using a pestle and mortar.
He himself kept a whole set in his storage bag.
And bigger herbs required the use of a millstone.
Luo Chen released his Spirit Consciousness and gazed gently at the little hole in the center of the millstone.
The breath of a Yin Soul was hiding within.
“Is it you, Xiao Ling?”
1 ‘If it1 s you, then come out.”
“I’m Luo Chen; your neighbor.”
“The person who used to come and buy medicine from you every day?”
There was no response.
All he sensed was the shivering Yin Energy.
Luo Chen thought for a moment then said softly, “Do you want to know how to use a Fire Dog Tail to refine a Fasting Elixir?”
Whoosh!
A small and ethereal head emerged from the hole of the millstone, looking curiously at Luo Chen.
Looking at the familiar face, Luo Chen finally confirmed.
This was the ghost spirit Bai Meiling had turned into after death.
Unbelievably, in this Ghost City teeming with evil ghosts and overflowing with resentful souls.
She, as a mere Yin Soul, had actually survived without being swallowed by stronger counterparts.
After approaching, Luo Chen finally understood why she had survived.
“So this millstone, after being soaked in Yin Energy, became a Lower Grade
Magic Tool.”
“No, it should be called a ‘Ghost Tool1!”
The tools used for processing valuable herbs often had high classifications.
They were at least of the Lower Grade.
The Foundation Establishment True Cultivator of the Hundred Herbs Pavilion naturally had no use for such things.
Yet, it had provided Bai Meiling’s Yin Soul with a place to live. Moreover, Luo Chen could sense that If Bai Meiling were to operate the millstone, she could even crush some Yin Soul Ghost Creatures that attacked her.
Initially, the purpose of the millstone was to grind medicine.
But now, it was used to grind ghosts.
Years had passed, and Bai Meiling had made the Ghost Mill her home, and they had formed a deep symbiotic relationship.
“The Ghost City will change and will no longer be a paradise for you all.
“Let me take you away!”
Luo Chen touched the millstone. Unexpectedly, Bai Meiling did not react with aggression.
Instead, she lay quietly in the hole of the millstone.
Luo Chen nodded his approval and carefully stowed the millstone away, in this way, as long as he brought this Ghost Mill Magic Tool out of the Big River Ghost City, Bai Meiling could leave with him.
Even without sufficient Yin Energy to sustain her, Bai Meiling could still remain comfortable by relying on the Magic Tool.
On Xiao Huan Mountain.
Luo Chen was sitting on a lounge chair, holding a storage bag in his hand.
His gaze fell on Bai Meiling, who was flitting in and out of the mist like a child.
He gave a slight smile.
“Enough play.”
“Heehee…”
“How’s your progression on the Soul-Refining True Technique I taught you?” Bai Meiling stood in front of him, her fingers fiddling subconsciously. She looked somewhat wronged.
“Eeee…”
It seemed as if she was saying that the technique was too difficult and she did not want to learn it.
Luo Chen’s expression became solemn, “You must learn, and learn seriously. Otherwise, you can’t regain your memory, nor can you embark on the path of Ghost Cultivation!”
“Eeee.”
Bai Meiling pouted her mouth and flew into the Green Reed House.
Then, she came out dragging a black piece of wood.
She squatted beside Luo Chen, staring sorrowfully at the wood piece.
Seeing this, Luo Chen also felt relieved.
The wood piece was naturally the one containing the Soul-Refining True Technique among the relics left behind by Gao Tingyuan.
Luo Chen’s Soul Absorption Technique and Soul Stabilization Oath were all learned from it.
