Old Five is a Goose.

Chapter 187 The Deal with Cen Shuyin

Cen Shuyin blocked Mo Wuji's path before he could leave. "Junior Brother Mo, why haven't I seen you lately?"

Mo Wuji smiled awkwardly. "Senior Sister Cen, aren't you seeing me now? I've actually been wandering around here."

"Really? I heard you just returned to the sect. If I hadn't arrived quickly, I probably would have missed you again," Cen Shuyin said with a hint of sarcasm.

If Mo Wuji didn't realize Cen Shuyin had specifically chased him from the sect to Wentian City, he would be too much of an idiot. "Senior Sister Cen, that lightning-based cultivation technique is indeed a bit strange. I told you when I gave it to you that practicing it could be fatal. If you encounter problems, blaming me is pointless, and I'm helpless."

Mo Wuji spread his hands, indicating his helplessness.

Cen Shuyin said coldly, "Oh? How do you know I'm having problems and blaming you? Could it be that you know the technique itself has issues?"

Mo Wuji thought, "Your face is pale, and even though you cultivate ice-based techniques, there's a fire dwelling within you. If I still didn't know you were having problems and blaming me, I shouldn't be in this business."

Thinking that, Mo Wuji still said seriously, "Senior Sister Cen, I told you from the start that the technique was incomplete and could be life-threatening. You insisted on having it yourself."

Cen Shuyin took a breath, trying to calm herself. "I only ask you one question: have you successfully cultivated it?"

Mo Wuji answered honestly, "I have successfully cultivated it. However, when I encountered problems, I modified some of the circulatory pathways."

He couldn't fool Cen Shuyin at all. He stayed in the lightning cultivation room for a day or two at a time. She wasn't an idiot; she knew he had succeeded.

"You modified the circulatory pathways?" Cen Shuyin stared at Mo Wuji with wide eyes.

This woman was truly beautiful. Looking at Cen Shuyin's wide eyes, Mo Wuji couldn't help but admire her.

Cen Shuyin didn't know Mo Wuji's thoughts were completely different from hers. A mere Meridian Opening cultivator dared to modify the circulatory pathways of a technique? Was he trying to die?

"How did you modify it?" Cen Shuyin blurted out.

Mo Wuji didn't answer. This was his secret, and Cen Shuyin was asking too much.

"Try showing it to me," Cen Shuyin said, seeing Mo Wuji didn't want to answer.

Mo Wuji chuckled. "Senior Sister Cen, the first move of the Seven Sky Lightning Strikes is my life-saving technique. We're not related; why would I demonstrate it for you in the middle of the city?"

It seemed this woman wasn't here to cause trouble. As long as she wasn't causing trouble, that was good.

Hearing Mo Wuji's words, Cen Shuyin realized Mo Wuji had no connection to her.

Thinking of her purpose, waiting for this lightning-based technique for eight or nine months in Wentian Academy, Cen Shuyin couldn't care less about other things. Her face darkened, and she said, "Junior Brother Mo, if you don't try it out, how will I know if your Seven Sky Lightning Strikes is real?"

"I believe you know it's real. The only regret is that it's just an incomplete technique," Mo Wuji said. Seeing Cen Shuyin's persistence, he knew things wouldn't end easily today. In terms of strength, he was far behind Cen Shuyin.

"I heard you originally wanted to follow Senior Brother Ren to the outer region battlefield. However, because the elders didn't plan to bring outer sect disciples, you didn't have the chance, right?" Cen Shuyin suddenly stopped asking about the Seven Sky Lightning Strikes and started talking about other things.

"So what?" Mo Wuji replied calmly. With his Building Spirit cultivation, he had planned to go to the outer region battlefield for training.

After arriving here, Mo Wuji knew that cultivating in seclusion alone would make it difficult to become a top expert.

"I have a small flying spiritual tool. If you can teach me the first move of the Seven Sky Lightning Strikes, I'm willing to give you this small flying spiritual tool. With a flying treasure, you can go to the outer region battlefield alone without the sect's help," Cen Shuyin said, staring at Mo Wuji, believing he wouldn't be unmoved by a flying treasure.

"What?" Mo Wuji immediately became excited. A flying spiritual tool was something he had always dreamed of. Unfortunately, most flying spiritual tools couldn't be bought with spirit stones. Even if they could, the cheapest flying spiritual tool would cost millions of earth-grade spirit stones.

Although Mo Wuji had hundreds of thousands of earth-grade spirit stones, he really couldn't afford a flying spiritual tool.

"Are you serious?" Mo Wuji asked again.

Cen Shuyin replied affirmatively, "My words are more valuable than gold."

"Deal!" Mo Wuji instinctively reached out to shake Cen Shuyin's hand. When he saw Cen Shuyin's hand didn't move, he realized he had forgotten where he was.

Seeing Mo Wuji awkwardly withdraw his hand, Cen Shuyin finally found a little balance. "Let's go. We'll return to the Immortal Training Tower in the sect now."

As she spoke, Cen Shuyin took out her flying treasure on the street, a flying chariot treasure.

The flying chariot treasure was exquisitely beautiful.

"Get in," Cen Shuyin said, walking into her flying chariot treasure first and calling out to Mo Wuji.

Mo Wuji stepped into the flying chariot and smelled a faint fragrance. Cen Shuyin had decorated the inside of the flying chariot like a boudoir, making Mo Wuji feel slightly awkward. If he helped Cen Shuyin successfully cultivate the first move of the Seven Sky Lightning Strikes, would she give him this flying chariot? This seemed to be a woman's flying treasure.

Cen Shuyin didn't say a word. Mo Wuji felt like he was deceiving a young girl out of her flying treasure, so he coughed and said, "I heard the outer region flying ships can cross the starry sky. I wonder what level of flying treasure they are."

"Rumor has it that only Immortal Sunflower Refined Gold can be used to refine flying treasures that cross the starry sky. That should at least be the level of a top-grade spiritual tool," Cen Shuyin said, not ignoring Mo Wuji.

Mo Wuji had long known Cen Shuyin was knowledgeable. He didn't expect Cen Shuyin even knew the refining materials for such outer region flying ships. He asked expectantly, "Senior Sister Cen, do you know where Immortal Sunflower Refined Gold usually grows?"

Cen Shuyin glanced at Mo Wuji and replied unhurriedly, "As far as I know, there's no such treasure as Immortal Sunflower Refined Gold within the Lost Continent. It's a treasure from an alien starry sky and is extremely precious. So, don't think too much about it."

"What does Immortal Sunflower Refined Gold look like?" Mo Wuji was really interested in outer region flying treasures. He didn't have the chance now, but who could say if he would return to Earth in the future? It wouldn't hurt to learn about it.

"The true Immortal Sunflower Refined Gold, in its complete form, looks like a sunflower, completely black, hard, and icy cold..."

Before Cen Shuyin could finish speaking, Mo Wuji was stunned.

Wasn't a sunflower a sunflower? Completely black, hard, and icy cold—wasn't that the huge sunflower-shaped black iron in his storage bag?

Could it be that he had unintentionally obtained a huge piece of Immortal Sunflower Refined Gold? The more Mo Wuji thought about it, the more likely it seemed. As for Cen Shuyin's statement that Immortal Sunflower Refined Gold couldn't exist on the Lost Continent, Mo Wuji ignored it. How big was the Lost Continent? Not to mention the Lost Continent, even the Lost Heavenly Ruins couldn't be explored by ordinary people.

No matter how much Cen Shuyin's master knew, she couldn't be certain that the Lost Continent didn't have Immortal Sunflower Refined Gold.

At this moment, Mo Wuji wanted to laugh out loud. He had obtained such a complete piece of Immortal Sunflower Refined Gold. Did that mean he could return to Earth one day?

He had to speed up his cultivation and find a refining master to turn his Immortal Sunflower Refined Gold into a starship.

He had originally planned to give Cen Shuyin his modified way of cultivating Void Lightning Strike after returning to the sect. Now that Mo Wuji learned he had obtained a piece of Immortal Sunflower Refined Gold from Cen Shuyin, he felt great. He took out paper and pen and quickly wrote down the cultivation method for Void Lightning Strike, handing it to Cen Shuyin. "Senior Sister Cen, this is the modified first move of the Seven Sky Lightning Strikes. As for whether you can cultivate it, I don't know."

Cen Shuyin grabbed the cultivation method Mo Wuji gave her. After only a moment, she stared at Mo Wuji in confusion. "Why do I feel like the first move of the Seven Sky Lightning Strikes that you modified is all about the circulatory pathways for cultivating techniques?"

Cen Shuyin had studied the incomplete first move of the Seven Sky Lightning Strikes countless times. As soon as Mo Wuji's modification came out, she knew where it had been changed.

Mo Wuji's face turned red. He only knew the Immortal Mortal Technique. What else could he base his modifications on besides the Immortal Mortal Technique?

"I did indeed follow this cultivation method. If you don't believe me, then forget it. I don't want your flying treasure..."

"No need. I'll cultivate in the ice refinement room according to this method. Get out of the car. Wait for me outside the Immortal Training Tower," Cen Shuyin said, standing up.

Mo Wuji realized the flying chariot had arrived at Wentian Academy. He got out of the flying chariot, feeling envious. It was great to have a flying treasure.

If he had had a flying treasure back then, he wouldn't have met Jin Jiuzhen and wouldn't have become enemies with Jin Yu.

Seeing Cen Shuyin's eager expression, Mo Wuji suddenly said, "Senior Sister Cen, I know what I'm saying sounds absurd, but I still suggest you don't cultivate the technique I gave you in the intermediate ice refinement room. If you believe me, go to the highest-level ice refinement room to cultivate the technique I gave you."

Mo Wuji didn't know if Cen Shuyin heard him. Her figure had already disappeared quickly.

Mo Wuji wanted to leave now, but thinking of Cen Shuyin's flying treasure, he felt a little hot. A flying treasure was really important to him.

Now that he was at the fourth level of Building Spirit and had plenty of spirit stones, he decided to go to the Immortal Training Tower for secluded cultivation. He would cultivate while waiting for Cen Shuyin, in case she successfully cultivated it.
