Dong Zhao looked at Xu Jin with a pleased, chuckling smile, "It’s good that you’re willing, but as the Mountain Master who has made a promise, I will certainly fulfill it. You should know, a Second-tier Star Weapon requires Taoist Merit to purchase, even if you have the silver, you can’t buy it through normal channels."
Since the Mountain Master had spoken, Xu Jin stopped refusing and could only give his assurance once more.
"What’s your current Cultivation Level?"
Suddenly, Dong Zhao’s gaze fell onto Xu Jin, and in an instant, Xu Jin felt an overwhelming power descend upon him. In that moment, he felt as if he were stripped bare, an extremely uncomfortable sensation.
But the feeling lasted only a moment before Mountain Master Dong Zhao withdrew his gaze.
"You lad, you’ve undergone Purification three times already, haven’t you? When did this happen?" Dong Zhao asked.
Beside him, Ning Yuchan looked at Xu Jin in astonishment.
She hadn’t noticed Xu Jin had completed Purification three times.
"Mountain Master has the eyesight of an eagle. It was this morning, I just completed the third time," Xu Jin modestly dished out a compliment.
Dong Zhao, however, ignored Xu Jin’s flattery, his eyes fixated on Xu Jin, full of wonder.
Ning Yuchan felt the same way.
Three days to complete Purification three times.
The speed was astonishing.
However, compared to the speed of engraving the Small Star Gathering Pattern, it was still acceptable.
Suddenly, Mountain Master Dong Zhao smiled, "Since that’s the case, why not strike while the iron is hot? Perfect, let’s have you enjoy the exclusive privilege of the Inner Court!"
"Inner Court’s exclusive privilege?" Xu Jin was a little puzzled.
"Don’t you know?"
"Mountain Master, I haven’t inquired at the Foreign Affairs Hall yet."
"All Inner Court Disciples who are Dining Dawn Seventh Layer and have undergone Purification three times are eligible, according to ranking, to receive a variable number of top-grade Transcendence Pills and support from an instructor or Instructor for two additional Purifications.
And the first of the Inner Court can enjoy six top-grade Transcendence Pills exclusively, and also receive the personal assistance from me, the Mountain Master, for Purification!" Mountain Master Dong Zhao explained.
In an instant, Xu Jin was startled.
What surprised Xu Jin wasn’t the six top-grade Transcendence Pills, but the Mountain Master’s personal assistance with Purification.
Suddenly, Xu Jin saw Ning Yuchan beside him expressing a look of surprise—a look that appeared after hearing the Mountain Master’s words.
What was Ning Yuchan surprised about?
In all likelihood, it was about the Mountain Master personally helping with Purification.
In other words, was this reward something added by Mountain Master Dong Zhao on the spot?
Mingji Star Pattern also keenly sensed Ning Yuchan’s surprised emotion.
It just goes to show, as the Mountain Master, your word is law.
And besides, this is a good thing. Xu Jin had no reason to refuse.
"Yuchan, after you’re done, you directly apply for six top-grade Transcendence Pills for Xu Jin, then go to the Foreign Affairs Hall to settle the accounts. Let’s make it quick, in hopes that he can achieve a Purity Body before the autumn exam," Dong Zhao instructed.
Now it was Xu Jin’s turn to be surprised.
According to what the Mountain Master said, were the six top-grade Transcendence Pills that Ning Yuchan gave to Xu Jin three days earlier out of her own pocket?
Six top-grade Transcendence Pills were not cheap.
They were worth four thousand eight hundred Taoist Merit, equivalent to forty-eight thousand taels of silver.
The key point is that you can’t buy them with silver, and while Taoist Merit can be exchanged for silver, not to mention gold, you can’t exchange gold for Taoist Merit!
Right, three days ago when Ning Yuchan delivered the Pills, Xu Jin hadn’t yet entered the Inner Court.
Xu Jin becoming the chief disciple of the Inner Court happened the afternoon of the day before last.
It really was Ning Yuchan who spent her own money.
Such a great teacher!
Looking at Xu Jin’s fervent gaze, Ning Yuchan glared at him and then slightly uncomfortably adjusted her hair.
Dong Zhao, however, did not notice these interactions but asked Xu Jin again, "Xu Jin, do you want to solidify achieving a Purity Body rapidly, plus enhance your Divine Soul Power to some extent?"
"Yes!" Xu Jin gave a firm answer.
"Can you bear the pain?" Dong Zhao further inquired.
"What kind of pain?"
"Similar to the feeling of thousands of ants boring into your heart. Of course, I will give you a Pill to alleviate the pain," Dong Zhao said.
"This..."
Hearing the description of pain like thousands of ants boring into the heart, Ning Yuchan’s eyes flashed with a hint of pity, while Xu Jin became somewhat hesitant.
That description sounded very painful.
"You must know, it’s extremely difficult for cultivators below the Gathering Battle Realm to enhance their Divine Soul Power. This is a rare opportunity for you to improve your Divine Soul Power!"
Beyond that, for most people, even with an ample supply of top-grade Transcendence Pills and the help of a mentor, achieving five Purifications is manageable, but reaching six to form the Purity Body is difficult!
If you can endure that little bit of pain, the six-time Purity Body will surely be achieved, and you may even have the hope of striving for the seventh Purification!
You should know that such a foundation is what all cultivators dream of!"
At this moment, Mountain Master Dong Zhao resembled a big bad wolf luring Little Red Riding Hood.
"And all of this requires you to persevere just over 15 minutes, at most, it will not exceed 30 minutes," Dong Zhao said.
Xu Jin looked towards Ning Yuchan.
In comparison, Xu Jin trusted Ning Yuchan more and believed in her opinion.
Seeing Xu Jin’s gaze, Ning Yuchan of course understood what he meant and simply stated, "I tried it in the past, and I persevered, achieving the Purity Body."
If a frail woman could endure, why couldn’t he, Xu Jin, a grown man, persevere.
"If the instructor could, then I can too!"
"Good!"
Mountain Master Dong Zhao was overjoyed, "Then I shall assist you myself, I won’t go call Tian Zhang," Dong Zhao said.
"Xu Jin, next, do not resist at all. Your instructor Yuchan’s and my Star Power will enter your body, and you must wrap your Divine Thought around our Star Power, then hold steadfast to your thoughts and absolutely cannot pass out. If you do pass out, it will all have been in vain," Dong Zhao said.
"Understood," Xu Jin agreed, though somewhat nervously!
In the next instant, Ning Yuchan and Mountain Master Dong Zhao, one on each side, placed their hands on Xu Jin’s shoulders. In a flash, two completely different Star Powers surged into Xu Jin’s body.
The moment the Star Power entered his body, Xu Jin’s own Star Power instinctively wanted to resist, but was immediately suppressed by his thoughts.
At the same time, Xu Jin’s Divine Thought entwined around both of their Star Powers.
In an instant, their Star Power could freely move within Xu Jin’s body.
The next moment, a familiar wave arrived, the Golden Refine Chapter.
The two strands of incoming Star Power began to stimulate the Star Power in the form of the Golden Refine Chapter.
As the Star Power began its rapid circulation, an indescribable pain instantly emanated from the areas passed by the Star Power.
Their Star Power, allowing Xu Jin’s Divine Thought to wrap around it, had already become harmless to Xu Jin.
But the rate at which their Star Power circulated within Xu Jin’s body was more than ten times that of Xu Jin’s own Star Power.
Previously, Xu Jin’s Star Power was like jogging inside the body, but now the two individuals’ Star Powers were rampaging through Xu Jin’s body like bulldozers.
Over and over again, continuously crashing and sweeping.
Pain!
Xu Jin felt pain in every single pore.
Pain so intense that Xu Jin couldn’t even scream.
In just a few breaths, sweat had soaked through Xu Jin’s clothes.
But what Xu Jin did not expect was that this was not the most painful part.
The most painful was when, in cooperation, Ning Yuchan’s Star Power swept through first, followed by the faster, different nature of Mountain Master’s Star Power sweeping across.
It felt as if after being scrubbed with an iron brush, a knife was used to scrape over it.
Xu Jin regretted it.
It was damn painful.
But it was too late for regrets.
At this moment, Xu Jin couldn’t even utter a sound to give up.
He could only subconsciously use his Divine Thought to tightly cling to their Star Power, following it as it rampaged through his body.
As layer upon layer of sweat laced with blood surfaced on his skin, it also carried out wisps of faint, black filth.
Twenty minutes later, when a pale, black oily sheen also began to emerge on Xu Jin’s forehead, Ning Yuchan and Mountain Master Dong Zhao exchanged a glance and simultaneously withdrew their Star Power.
It was done!
The moment their Star Power was withdrawn, Xu Jin’s steadfast Divine Thought receded, and he instantly passed out.
Mountain Master Dong Zhao quickly stuffed several Pills into Xu Jin’s mouth before turning to Ning Yuchan, "Yuchan, I’ll have to trouble you to look after him for a few hours, until he wakes up."
"Rest assured, Mountain Master."
Ning Yuchan wiped the sweat from her forehead and carried Xu Jin, quickly leaping towards her own residence.
In just twenty minutes, Ning Yuchan, an expert at the Ninth-star Condensation, had sweated through her heavy clothes, drenched!
Inside the Mountain Master’s residence, after Ning Yuchan left, Dong Zhao finally let out a sigh of relief and quickly went back to his room to change clothes.
His underclothes were also nearly soaked through with sweat.
Assisting someone with the Purification was no easy feat!
