Text Chapter 1007: Unexpected Events

"An unexpected thing?" The female cultivator hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "It is indeed a bit unexpected."

"Fellow Taoist's weakening spiritual power may be related to the accident that year." Ishikawa said calmly.

In just a few moments, the spiritual energy in the female cultivator's body was absorbed by the black thing on her left arm. The blush on the female cultivator's face slowly faded.

"Can fellow Taoist provide some spiritual power?" Wang Qingshan asked Ishikawa again.

"No amount of spiritual power means anything." Ishikawa said coldly: "If fellow Taoist can tell me what happened back then, maybe I can do something about it."

"This..." The female cultivator glanced at Wang Qingshan and began to ponder again.

"More than a hundred years ago, Ruomei and I met not long ago! Since then, Ruomei has been practicing here, how could anything unexpected happen?" Wang Qingshan was somewhat dissatisfied with Ishikawa's questioning.

"Have fellow Taoists seen through the reason why my spiritual power has been weakened?" The female cultivator ignored Wang Qingshan's words and instead looked at Ishikawa and asked.

"It should be considered so." Ishikawa nodded and did not deny it.

The female cultivator bit her lip, and after thinking for a long time, she finally said: "Back then, I also had a cultivation level in the late stage of spiritual transformation. Because of that unexpected incident, my cultivation level plummeted, and I actually fell to this level."

"What?" Wang Qingshan looked like he couldn't believe it: "When Ruomei and I first met, Ruomei was only in the early stages of becoming a god."

The female cultivator smiled bitterly and said to Wang Qingshan: "Long before we met, my cultivation level had begun to decline slowly."

After a full quarter of an hour, the female cultivator bit her teeth. Said: "Senior Brother Wang, and this unknown Taoist friend. I owe you a lot of kindness to Li. Regardless of whether this spiritual pill is effective or not, I will tell you two a secret as a reward. This secret can only be shared by ten people." You know, as far as I know, seven of them have died, and the lives of two of them are uncertain, but based on my considerations, they are probably in the same situation as me."

"Ruomei will repair it for the time being. It won't be too late to talk about this matter after the spiritual root is repaired and the child is complete." Wang Qingshan said hurriedly.

The female cultivator shook her head and continued: "The little girl's name is Li Keruo. She is a monk from Hunyun Star, but she left Hunyun Star more than a thousand years ago. We are traveling together with ten other Taoist friends. The ten of us are traveling around Search for ancient treasures and get a lot of benefits from these treasures. More than two hundred years ago, we discovered another strange planet. This planet is very strange and is shrouded in a special formation every other day. It only opens once every hundred years. Ten of us entered this planet and searched for a large number of ancient treasures and a variety of high-level spiritual herbs. But when we were about to leave the planet, something strange happened. First, a fellow Taoist with the highest level of cultivation lost all his spiritual power, and eventually his muscles and bones were gone. Then several monks suffered from the same situation. I saw with my own eyes that a total of seven fellow Taoists who were higher in level of cultivation than me died, leaving three of us. It was only after people escaped from the planet that we discovered that there was a strange red spirit insect attached to us. "

The female cultivator took out a shiny bead from her arms, and a red spirit insect sealed it inside.

"As soon as this kind of spiritual insect left the planet, it died immediately. I caught one and sealed it. After leaving the planet, the three of us went our separate ways. After some changes, I finally came to settle here. "The female cultivator sighed and said, "Although I saved a life, my cultivation has been declining since then, until this situation."

Ishikawa waved his hand, took the spiritual insect into his hand, and observed it carefully.

This spirit insect was extremely small in size and red in color. It didn't seem to be difficult to deal with, but its mouth was missing, which made Ishikawa very curious.

Ishikawa is already 70% sure that the reason why the female cultivator is in this situation has something to do with this spiritual insect.

"I also suspected that it was related to this kind of spiritual insect, but there was nothing special about the whole body, and there were no traces of bites." The female cultivator continued.

"What level of cultivation did the seven monks who died that year achieve?" Ishikawa asked.

"We are about to enter the Void Refining Stage!" Li Keruo's eyes were a little wet, and it was obvious that what happened back then had a great impact on him.

Ishikawa pondered for a moment and had a slight understanding of the matter.

This black thing should have a certain relationship with the red spirit insect, but all the high-level practitioners fell in a short period of time, which made Ishikawa a little confused.

Ishikawa had to take out the black thing from Li Keruo's body to confirm his speculation. Ishikawa waved his hand and shot out a stream of spiritual power, which was injected into the female cultivator's body.

A large amount of spiritual power entered the body, and the female cultivator couldn't help but snorted coldly, while the black thing on her left arm continued to swallow up the spiritual power.

Ishikawa's spiritual power, mixed with a trace of divine power, slowly swam inside the female cultivator's body. After a while, it finally reached her left arm, and the black thing was swallowed without any hesitation.

Ishikawa's eyebrows glanced slightly, and his expression suddenly changed.

"Get up!" Ishikawa shouted.

"Ah!" The female cultivator couldn't help but snorted coldly, her face suddenly covered with sweat, showing an expression of extreme pain.

"Fellow Taoist, what are you going to do?" Wang Qingshan was shocked and angry, planning to come up and stop Ishikawa.

Without any hesitation, Ishikawa took advantage of the initial momentum and used that trace of divine power as a support to pull the black thing out of the female cultivator's body.

After the black thing was extracted, Ishikawa instantly sealed it into a spiritual vial.

The female cultivator fainted because of the large amount of spiritual power being drained away.

Shichuan looked around with his spiritual sense and found that the impact on Li Keruo was not too great. As long as he rested for a while, he would be able to recover as before.

"If there is nothing wrong, Fellow Daoist Li is already safe and sound. He just needs to adjust his breath for a while." Shichuan said coldly.

"This... is this true?" Wang Qingshan asked in disbelief.

"Do I need to deceive Fellow Daoist Wang?" Shichuan smiled coldly. He also had a lot more favorable impression of Wang Qingshan.

This person has been looking for the five spiritual herbs for this female cultivator for decades, and has used many methods to refine the spiritual essence pill. It is enough to show that this person is a person of temperament, but the method he used is a bit extreme.

And judging from the attitudes of the two, it seems that they have not reached the level of becoming Taoist partners.

The main reason why Li Keruo stayed here was because her spiritual power gradually weakened. Now that Shichuan's help has completely solved this problem, whether the relationship between the two will be harmonious is still a question.

Of course, these were not what Ishikawa considered, and there was no need for him to consider them.

Wang Qingshan looked flustered. While injecting spiritual power into Li Keruo's body, he took out the spiritual essence pill and several other pills and fed them to Li Keruo.

Ishikawa shook his head, left the cave, and turned back to the earth fire cave.

During this period of contact and from his understanding of Wang Qingshan, Ishikawa had some understanding of Wang Qingshan's temper, and he was no longer too wary of Wang Qingshan.

Moreover, it would probably take at least several years for Li Keruo to recover his cultivation.

Wang Qingshan could not be an enemy of Ishikawa for Li Keruo. If the two of them fought, Li Keruo would definitely have nowhere to hide.

Therefore, Ishikawa went straight back to the cave. On the way back, Ishikawa collected a red spiritual wood with great interest and planted it in the fairy house.

After Ishikawa returned to the earth fire cave, he first called up the black bird in the earth fire.

"Fellow Daoist Wu, what special discovery have you made here?" Ishikawa asked.

"The underground fire here is different from the underground fire in other places. I suspect that there is some strange existence in this underground fire. Otherwise, the absolute underground fire spiritual power here would never be so strong." Wu Que replied.

In these few short years, Wu Que's cultivation has greatly increased, and it is obvious that he has benefited greatly from this underground fire.

"I will practice here for a few more years. Daoist friends can search for it during this period, but if you can't find it, it doesn't matter." Ishikawa bowed and returned to the alchemy room.

In the following time, Ishikawa continued to refine the spirit pill.

As the number of refining times increased, Ishikawa's alchemy skills became more and more proficient, and the time spent was getting less and less. During the process of refining the pill, Ishikawa occasionally took a few pills.

Although from the surface, this spirit pill has no obvious effect, but the potential effect it exerts is very huge.

This lasted for five or six years, and the black mist on Ishikawa's body was extremely thin, and could only barely cover Ishikawa's face.

Wang Qingshan returned to this place for the first time since they parted ways last time. When he saw Ishikawa, he bowed respectfully and said nothing more, waiting patiently on the side.

"Is Fellow Daoist Wang here?" Ishikawa cast several spells in his hand, seemingly a little careless, and said: "Fellow Daoist Li should have recovered almost."

Wang Qingshan showed a look of surprise on his face. When ordinary people are refining pills, they are most taboo to be disturbed by others. Ishikawa actually took the initiative to talk to him, which is really not something that ordinary people can do.

"Thanks to Fellow Daoist's help, Rumei has recovered to normal. In the past few years, her cultivation has recovered very quickly. I believe it won't take long for her to recover as before." Wang Qingshan bowed and replied.

Ishikawa nodded. It seems that his guess back then was not wrong. It was indeed caused by the black thing.

This thing was kept in the storage bag by Ishikawa. Now that it has been confirmed from Li Keruo, it is time to study what this thing is.

"Get up!" Ishikawa shouted softly, and the cauldron flew up and fell into Ishikawa's hands.

A strong medicinal fragrance instantly spread throughout the alchemy room, and a furnace of spiritual essence pills was refined.

Wang Qingshan saw this scene, and his eyes were even more horrified. Ishikawa actually talked to him at the last critical period of pill making, as if he didn't take alchemy seriously. And more importantly, this pill was actually successfully refined.

Just from the fragrance of the pill, Wang Qingshan could feel that the grade of this pill would definitely not be too low.
