Chapter 340 - That Seems Like It
Qin Chuan bid farewell to Dan Yangzi and went to the secret room where the two Corpses Refiners were kept.
"Sect Master!"
In the secret room, the elders and disciples who were guarding the room hurriedly bowed and greeted Qin Chuan whena they saw him.
Qin Chuan nodded. "How are the two of them?"
An elder said, "Still unwilling to speak."
"I understand." Qin Chuan said. "You guys can leave first, I will deal with these two."
"Yes."
Very quickly, only Qin Chuan and the two Corpses Refiners remained in the secret room.
Guang Jiu and Guang Bai saw a new face, and it was a very young man.
The two of them looked at each other and smiled as if their thoughts were connected.
"Fellow cultivator, is it convenient for you to come over?" Guang Bai asked with a chuckle.
Qin Chuan walked over.
He arrived before the two of them.
Guang Bai whispered, "Fellow cultivator, I have something to discuss with you."
Qin Chuan replied with interest, "Please speak?"
Guangbai said, "Can you let us out?
"If you release us, I can impart even more advanced cultivation techniques to you."
Qin Chuan replied, "I don"t think there"s a need for that! I feel that my current cultivation technique is already very good."
"Good, my a*s. The cultivation here is too backward.
"Tell me, did anyone manage to reach the Immortal Realm?
"Forget it. This request is too demanding.
"Let me ask you, can you guarantee that you can cultivate to the Immortal realm? "
Qin Chuan thought for a moment, "I haven"t thought about that yet. Even our elders have yet to reach that level!
"Besides, I feel that the Immortal realm is too far away from me. I probably won"t be able to reach it in this lifetime. It"s fine as long as I can spend every day fruitfully."
Guang Bai said, "Fellow cultivator! Your att.i.tude isn"t right.
"Let me ask you the most basic question. Why do people cultivate? "
"Immortality?" Qin Chuan pondered for a moment before replying with uncertainty.
"That"s right! If not for immortality, why cultivate?
"However, the Dao of immortality is not that easy to achieve.
"But our Corpse Refinement Faction can get it done easily.
"When you choose our Corpse Refinement Faction, as long as your soul remains, you can live forever."
Upon hearing this, Qin Chuan"s eyes lit up as he asked in disbelief, "Are you serious?"
Seeing Qin Chuan"s reaction, Guang Bai felt that he was halfway to success.
He immediately said, "Of course it"s true. Our soul cultivation methods are incomparably profound.
"One does not need to reach the Immortal realm to achieve immortality.
"How is it? Are you tempted?"
Qin Chuan rubbed his chin as he contemplated. "I am tempted, but if I let you guys out, the elders will definitely beat me to death."
Guang Bai said anxiously, "Fellow cultivator, are you stupid? If we impart you the Dao of our sect, you"ll naturally become a member of our Corpse Refinement Faction. We will definitely take you away."
Guang Jiu said from the side, "Fellow cultivator, the opportunity is right in front of you.
"What you have to do is untie our ropes."
"Stop thinking, fellow cultivator. You won"t accomplish anything great with hesitation."
Guang Bai and Guang Jiu spoke one after another, making a scheme.
Qin Chuan was restless and took a few steps closer.
He extended his hands and prepared to untie the Immortal Binding Rope that bound them.
Guang Bai and Guang Jiu were wide-eyed, watching Qin Chuan"s actions.
They shouted inwardly, "Do it! Do it!"
Suddenly, Qin Chuan retracted his hands.
Guangbai and Guangjiu were furious!
They wished they could kill Qin Chuan.
However, Qin Chuan was their only hope to escape.
Thus, they could only endure it.
"Fellow cultivator, why did you stop? Is there a problem?" Guang Bai asked softly.
Qin Chuan replied, "I suddenly thought of something. What if you guys go back on your word after I let you out?"
Guang Bai smiled apologetically. "Fellow cultivator, cultivators don"t lie to cultivators. The reputation of the Corpse Refinement Faction is well known in the industry.
"If I go back on my word, I swear to the heavens that I will be struck by lightning and destroyed in body and soul.
"Look, I"ve already sworn. You should believe us now!"
Guang Bai was not from this planet. The will of the Heavenly Dao did not affect him much. Even if he swore to the heavens, he would not be punished for breaking his promise.
Qin Chuan wasn"t a fool. He knew that their oaths were nothing but farts.
But since they wanted to play, he would play with them.
After all, he was quite bored.
Qin Chuan said, "How about this! Teach me the soul cultivation technique first, and I will help you untie the ropes."
"Ah, this…" Guang Bai was speechless. He didn"t expect Qin Chuan to be so vigilant.
"What should we do?" Guang Bai and Guang Jiu began conversing.
"What else can we do? If he wants it, we"ll give it to him?"
"Guang Jiu, are you out of your mind? Imparting the Corpse Refinement Faction"s cultivation technique without permission—a soul cultivation technique at that. If the higher-ups find out, aren"t you afraid that you"ll be entirely destroyed?"
Guang Jiu said with a smile, "Guang Bai, you"re so simple-minded.
"This guy doesn"t even know what our Corpse Refinement Faction cultivates. Just give him a random cultivation technique and you"ll be able to fool him."
Guang Bai"s eyes lit up. "That"s right. Why didn"t I think of that?"
After the exchange, Guang Bai said to Qin Chuan, "Alright then! But don"t go back on your words."
Qin Chuan smiled and said, "Cultivators don"t lie to cultivators. I am known to be a good person. Or shall I take an oath?"
"There"s no need for that.
"After you practice our techniques, we"ll be fellow disciples."
Pausing for a moment, Guang Bai continued, "My body is currently sealed, so I"m unable to impart the cultivation technique to you directly. I can only teach you verbally, is that okay?"
Qin Chuan happily shook his head. "No problem, go ahead!"
"Mm!"
Guang Bai began to narrate, casually describing a rubbish technique to Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan knew that they were up to no good. He pretended to listen attentively.
About an hour later.
"The soul cultivation technique is generally like this. When you untie the ropes, I will impart your cultivation insights to you. It will speed up your cultivation and save you the time needed to comprehend it," Guang Bai said in a deep voice, looking like a teacher.
Qin Chuan nodded his head and sat down cross-legged.
Guang Bai was dumbfounded.
"Fellow… fellow cultivator, what are you doing? Didn"t you agree to untie the ropes?"
"Don"t be anxious. I"m only cultivating the divine techniques of our Corpse Refinement Faction. I won"t spend too much time."
"…"
"…"
The two were speechless.
"Um… Fellow cultivator, there"s no rush in cultivating. You"ll have plenty of time to cultivate after untying our ropes."
"Indeed! Our cultivation technique causes a huge commotion when we cultivate it. It would be bad if we were to lead anybody over!
"You must know that you"re cultivating a cultivation technique of our lineage. If those elders of yours were to discover this, it would be an act of violating the rules and betraying your masters and ancestors.
"Also, fellow cultivator, you"ve only just obtained the cultivation technique and have never cultivated it before. If you suffer a backlash, wouldn"t you be ending your path to immortality?
"This is not worth it."
"That"s right! We"ve all been here before, and we"ve seen too many such examples."
"Fellow cultivator, listen to us. Don"t be rash. If you want to cultivate, untie the ropes and we"ll teach you personally."
Guang Bai and Guang Jiu were extremely fl.u.s.tered.
The cultivation technique that they had just imparted to the other party was randomly pieced together. If he were to cultivate them, they would surely be exposed.
They had never expected Qin Chuan to do such a thing.
Qin Chuan scratched his chin and murmured, "That seems to make sense."
Following this, he extended his hand and pulled gently at one end of the Immortal Binding Rope.
At that moment, Guang Bai and Guang Jiu laughed sinisterly.
