Chapter 684: Chapter 584: Sun Monkey’s Treatment? [Seeking Subscriptions, Seeking Monthly Tickets]

He didn’t conceal his form or anything of the sort, for the recent disturbance had already implied that his stealth made no difference.

Otherwise, when he had attacked the Ghost House earlier, the other Ghost Houses should have fixed their gazes on the blood sword formed by the Five Ghosts Transformation, rather than him personally.

And that he was ignored by these houses was clearly due to other reasons.

······

The whole Ghost Sludge, or rather, the Mysterious Domain was vast, Wang Zijia flew at a leisurely pace, scouting as he went.

The closer he flew to the central district, the taller the Ghost Houses grew, and the richer the contents inside the houses became.

Most of the structures outside primarily consisted of bizarre chairs.

However, as he drew near the devil-seeded center, Wang Zijia saw that inside some of the tall pavilions, not only did the chairs come alive and bite randomly, but also various shelves, and even clothes were animate.

They were like a group of ghosts, transformed into ghost beings, causing a rambunctious disturbance as they fought and bit each other within the rooms or roamed beneath the eaves outside the rooms.

It was a complete spectacle of a demonic dance.

Moreover, the closer it was to the forbidden central district, the larger the Ghost Houses were, and the richer their animate contents. Naturally, the buildings grew scarcer, and the territory they occupied was much larger, seeming like distinct domains.

When Wang Zijia soared past them or above their heads, not a single ghost took interest in him.

Therefore, he didn’t encounter any obstacles on his journey.

Even though he wasn’t in a rush, he didn’t take much time to arrive at a place that was clearly the Core Area.

Nothing else, it was just too conspicuous.

A group of ghostly pavilions surrounded the center, where a Chinese white jade building complex stood intact.

They didn’t show a hint of distortion, with its beams delicately carved, reflecting the same tranquility as the view Wang Zijia had seen at the beginning.

Between the wafting immortal aura, and the surrounding ghastly gust, a stark contrast was formed.

"Alchemy Palace"

A plaque hanging on the Main Hall of the building complex, carved with sword characters, inscribed these words.

Wang Zijia hovered in front of the Great Hall, hesitating for a bit as he stared at the classical and immortally profound Alchemy Palace, then he stepped in.

No matter what state the Mysterious Domain was in, he came here to explore, and must seek out the Illusion Master!

If he dealt with it, then he would flee. If he could handle it, he must dispel this Mysterious Domain.

Otherwise, if it really erupts one day, then it would truly manifest a world of infinite ghosts!

By that time, even if Qinglian World were to advance into a mid-thousand world, it might not withstand it.

······

The moment he stepped into the Great Hall, Wang Zijia’s face slightly changed.

A strong sensation of spatial transition hit him, his whole body tensed up.

In the next moment, heat waves surged, flames swept forth, with an endless Sea of Fire filling Wang Zijia’s entire world.

He instinctively wished to extend his hand to cast a spell, but he was shocked to find that he couldn’t sense his arms or legs at all.

Dumbstruck for a moment, he realised he had transformed into a blood-colored elixir pill, being smelted under the littered and turbid black flames.

With a surge of his mind, the five ghosts whisked out.

In the next moment, the five ghosts had also turned into five pill pellet.

In the midst of the rapidly changing expression, he privately perceived the Sea of Consciousness, confirming he could run away at any time. It was only after not noticing any abnormal Statuses that Wang Zijia breathed out a quiet sigh of relief, while at the same time furrowed his brows.

’Twisted cognitive perception of the mind side? Or an external manifestation of Transformation Path’s Dao charm, physical law alteration?’

There wasn’t much time to thoroughly ponder because familiar incense pollution came swarming over him when the black flames smelted him. Various roars continuously exacerbated in his mind.

If it prolonged, a mass of information would fill him up again, plunging him into a daze.

The main issue was, besides the erosion, the flames carried a unique scorching effect. He wasn’t sure whether he was twisted in perception or really turned into a Blood Pill.

But he could confirm that if it continued this way, he would absolutely turn into a pill in every aspect.

His thoughts swiftly ran, and in the next moment, a book page flew out from within his body, exploding once it left him.

"Struggle!"

In the next moment, a series of long spears materialized.

After the spears appeared, they slightly oscillated, seeming like they would turn into pill pills next, but as they were formed by spells, the changes were somewhat slower.

Wang Zijia didn’t have the least bit of hesitation.

"Go!"

"Whoosh!"

Following his command, in the next moment, the spears soared into the sky, charging towards the formidable dome-like cover above.

Apparently, he was currently inside a mysterious pill furnace.

"Clang! Clang! Bang! Bang!"

"Boom, Boom!"

Intense clashes, along with a huge explosion, caused the entire black flame pill furnace to tremble abruptly.

The red flames set off by the explosion of the spears caused the black flames of the pill furnace to jump incessantly.

Each spear exploded one after another, triggering a series of impacts.

"Strange, isn’t there still four hours until completion? Why is the furnace ready so quickly today?"

"What’s the use of caring about that, let’s collect the pills first!"

At the moment, Wang Zijia heard two clear talking noises, seemingly originating from outside the pill furnace world.

He was taken aback!

There are living beings in this Mysterious Domain?!

Before he had time to think any further, the world inside the pill furnace wobbled. The next moment, the dome-like furnace lid was lifted open.

In an instant, Wang Zijia felt his body beginning to swell.

He didn’t wait to fully restore his human form, he immediately took the five ghosts with him and rushed outside.

"Ah! Devil!"

The moment he burst out of the pill furnace, Wang Zijia heard shrill screams. His eyes flickering with a golden light, he quickly scanned his surroundings.

This was an immense hall large enough for several hundred people, with several medicine cabinets, and shelves arrayed around. Elixir gourds hung on the walls—it was clearly an enormous Alchemy Great Hall.

At the center of the Great Hall, there was an enormous three-legged pill furnace almost ten meters tall covering an area of several square meters.

In front of the pill furnace, there were two ghost beings dressed as fifteen-six-year-old alchemists.

Half of their bodies were normal, the other half shriveled and mutilated, like rotting mummies, emitting an aura of decay and evil all over their bodies.

The two, oblivious to their own abnormalities, looked at Wang Zijia in panic. One screamed with mouth agape, while the other’s expression changed dramatically as he pulled out a fan. The fan fluttered in the wind and transformed into a banana fan two meters wide.

With the intertwining of wind and fire, the banana fan emanated an astonishing treasure light and seemed to want to fan towards Wang Zijia.

Wang Zijia was on edge ever since he’d arrived, how could he not be prepared!

"Two Instruments: Sub-Sword·Flying Sword Shadowless!"

The longsword formed by transforming the Five Ghosts trembled slightly and disappeared instantly.

"Squelch! Squelch!"

In the next moment, two skulls were sent flying high.

"Monster, ah, there’s a monster! Don’t kill me! The elixirs are on the wall over there!"

Having their heads cut off and thrown up into the air, the two children were not dead and screamed in panic.

Their bodies began to mutate rapidly, as though having lost its ultimate suppression with the loss of their heads. As they expanded, they appeared to be transforming into something terrifying.

"Swish! Swish!"

Sword light was like a shuttle, and the Primordial Magnetic Force exploded.

In a blink of an eye, both the bodies and the skulls were chopped into pieces by the Five Ghosts.

Bits of the corpses transformed momentarily between the strange iron pieces and flesh and blood and eventually didn’t manage to regroup and lost all signs of life.

Bits of familiar black smoke rose and Wang Zijia reached out his hand to intercept them, but he caught nothing. The smoke was as if it were invisible and disappeared without a trace.

At the same time, the banana fan that fell to the ground suddenly began to writhe. A ghostly mouth emerged and looked like it was about to animate.

Wang Zijia dashed in front of it and, before the banana fan had fully animated, it stuck out its tongue, about to wrap around Wang Zijia.

"Squelch!"

A blood-red spear was thrust by Wang Zijia into the ghostly mouth of the newly animated banana fan and the demon seed quickly spurted into its mouth.

The banana fan, just animated, stiffened for a moment.

In a short while, it trembled all over.

"Snap!"

Unable to complete the Demon Seeding, it directly crumbled without a trace in front of Wang Zijia, disappearing into thin air.

Wang Zijia furrowed his eyebrows, cautiously turned back, and took a glance at the enormous pill furnace that stood several meters high.

The pill furnace stood silently and showed no signs of animation.

This allowed Wang Zijia to breathe a quiet sigh of relief. If this thing were to animate, he would probably not be able to handle it and would have to flee!

······

Soon afterward, Wang Zijia finally had the chance to observe the enormous alchemy room in detail.

The room was very tall and very large.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t be able to accommodate a huge pill furnace that was over ten meters high.

There were several medicine cabinets around.

Wang Zijia first approached a few of them and carefully opened one.

"Ah!!!"

Inside the medicine cabinet, there wasn’t any medicine but a mutated ghost that floated out. It had completely lost its human form and became a ball of deformation.

Despite its form, it was still screaming, as if it was undergoing endless torment.

The Big Baby transformed into a ghost banner, fluctuated slightly, and directly took it in.

Frowning, he opened the cabinets one by one, all of which were filled with deformed ghoul spirits.

If the ghouls from the sky were in the primary stage, then the ones here were in the final stage.

After collecting all the ghouls from every cabinet, Wang Zijia then turned his head towards the only wall where three jade gourds were hanging.

One yellow, one white, and one blood red.

He approached the wall, first took down the white gourd, and cautiously opened it.

Even before Wang Zijia could pour it out, three elixirs radiating rosy clouds flew out.

"Am I beautiful?"

"Am I pretty?"

"Eat me! If you eat me, you can become an immortal with extraordinary beauty!"

Wang Zijia was momentarily dazed, it seemed as if consuming it would give him unparalleled beauty.

The golden light flashed in his eyes and then the elixirs emitting rosy clouds disappeared. Only three elixirs emanating black energy remained, appearing illusory with screams enshrined within.

Elixir: Immortal Face Pill

Status: Mutated

Level: Sixth Grade

Effect: Originally an exceptional divine pill among elixirs for beauty care and everlasting youth. However, due to the peculiar materials used for its concoction and strange pollution, it underwent a bizarre mutation.

Introduction: Severely polluted, consuming it will instantly transform you into a wicked ghost or demon, still considered an ’exceptional beauty care’ spirit pill. Demons would be attracted to you once they see you. Well worth a taste.

"Gulp!"

At the same time, the longsword and ghost banner, both transformed by the Five Ghosts, trembled slightly, emitting the sound of swallowing.

"Master, the pill smells delicious!"

"Master, you don’t like to eat it, do you!"

"Master, you don’t look like you like this kind of thing, please give it to Tong’er to eat!"

"Yes, Master, please give it to Tong’er, it smells so fragrant!"

"······"

Conversations between the Five Ghosts sounded in his mind!

In their words, there was some ambiguity, as if their mouths were filled with saliva.

"Eat, eat, eat, all you ever think about is eating!"

Wang Zijia did not immediately give the Five Ghosts the elixirs to divide among themselves, but instead opened the blood-red and yellow gourds.
