Chapter 631: Immortal Tears, A Solution for Zhang Zhen
Facing their gazes, Chen Changsheng smacked his lips and said.
“This matter is quite troublesome to explain; we need to brew a pot of tea and talk slowly.”
Upon hearing this, Bai Qiuniang waved her right hand, and all the items were prepared properly.
“Can we start now?”
“Of course.”
Chen Changsheng sat down with a smile and began brewing tea as he spoke.
“Zhang Zhen’s situation is very complicated. The root of the trouble is the ailment he was born with.”
“As soon as living beings are born, their vitality begins to wane. Besides the visible vitality, the True Spirit also ages continuously.”
“When everything reaches its end, it is what people often call the end of one’s lifespan.”
“Cultivators extend their lifespan by absorbing spiritual energy from the heavens and earth, thus delaying aging and the waning of vitality. Therefore, cultivators generally have much longer lifespans.”
“However, Zhang Zhen’s condition is special. His rate of aging is ten times, even a hundred or a thousand times faster than ordinary people.”
“And as time passes, his aging rate will double.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Zhen couldn’t help but clench his fists.
But Bai Qiuniang interjected, “In exploring the human body, I’m not as knowledgeable as you, but I don’t think this is so simple, do you?”
“Of course not.”
“If it were just a matter of vitality waning, I would have many ways to save him.”
“Even if he needed a new body, that wouldn’t be a big problem, but the aging of the True Spirit has really stumped me.”
“Could he live a second life?”
Bai Qiuniang frowned and asked.
“No,” Chen Changsheng shook his head and said, “The White-Haired Sword God lived a second life by cutting himself, and I know his situation very well.”
“Living a second life can rejuvenate vitality, but it doesn’t change the True Spirit.”
“In other words, even if I let Zhang Zhen live a second life, it won’t stop the speed at which his True Spirit ages. In the end, he will still only have a dead end.”
“Furthermore, he has been poisoned by a strange poison.”
“This poison will keep his body young, eventually turning him into an infant before he dies.”
“It is precisely because this strange poison suppresses his body’s aging that he has survived until now. Otherwise, with his condition, he wouldn’t have made it past his first month.”
After finishing, the cave fell silent, as this situation was indeed very difficult.
After a while, Zhang Zhen spoke up, “Then can this poison be cured?”
“Of course, I can cure this poison, but once it’s cured, you’ll d*e immediately.”
“But if you don’t cure the poison, your body will continue to deteriorate, and sooner or later, you will vanish from this world.”
“Of course, if these were the only troubles, I would have a way to solve them.”
“The most troublesome part is the issue with your True Spirit.”
“Although your body has survived these years, your True Spirit has already decayed.”
“A True Spirit of this intensity cannot be repaired through reincarnation. Now you understand your situation…”
“Knock knock knock!”
Bai Qiuniang knocked on the table, interrupting Chen Changsheng.
“I didn’t come here to hear how troublesome the situation is, but to hear the solution.”
“Since you dared to make a deal, I believe you must have a way to solve such a troublesome matter.”
Facing Bai Qiuniang’s words, the somewhat disheartened Zhang Zhen regained his spirits.
Because if even Chen Changsheng couldn’t handle it, he truly didn’t know what to do.
“Hahaha!”
“Why do you both hold me in such high regard? Fortunately, I have a way; otherwise, I’d be humiliated.”
“The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect has something called the Ten Thousand Year Ice Toad, which is said to absorb all poisons.”
“I plan to inject the Ten Thousand Year Ice Toad into his body, absorbing all the poisons within, and then release them in the most suitable dosage.”
“Doing so would greatly reduce the damage to his body, since his current body is almost beyond repair.”
“Further damage would mean immediate d*ath.”

“Very clever idea, then what?”
“After solving the strange poison, the next step is to repair his body.”
“He was poisoned while in his mother’s womb, and due to his unique circumstances, his foundation is in shambles.”
“Sky-Replenishing Ointment has a mild medicinal effect, mainly for extending life. His condition cannot be completely cured.”
“Heard there is a treasure in the Dark Night King’s possession called ‘Immortal Tears.'”
“Legend has it that this item is a drop of an immortal’s tear shed upon seeing the suffering of mortals, and taking it can heal any injury.”
“I plan to use this item to heal his body.”
“No way!”
After Chen Changsheng finished speaking, Bai Qiuniang stood up excitedly.
“There’s no way I’m giving you my Immortal Tears.”
Seeing Bai Qiuniang’s flustered appearance, Chen Changsheng smiled and poured her a cup of tea.
“Don’t get so angry. Let’s sit down and discuss things calmly.”
“I promised Zhang Zhen that when he gathers ten thousand accumulations, I will personally save him, and I will prepare everything for him.”
“To save Zhang Zhen, more than just a drop of Immortal Tears is needed.”
“Ten thousand accumulations for a drop of Immortal Tears is not a loss.”
“Bullshit!”
Bai Qiuniang slapped Chen Changsheng’s teacup off the table, angrily saying, “Saving him is your business. Why should I give you my Immortal Tears?”
“If you want Immortal Tears, bring something to trade.”
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng smiled slightly.
“It’s not calculated like that. If I directly ask you for Immortal Tears, then yes, you would have to trade something.”
“But the current situation is that these Immortal Tears are the price you pay for Zhang Zhen’s treatment method.”
“Paying for something is natural.”
“Before, I tricked you because our relationship is special. Strictly speaking, I was just being unethical.”
“But now we’re playing fair. If you default, my attitude will change.”
Hearing this, Bai Qiuniang coldly said, “What kind of change?”
“k*ll you!”
“Throughout the world, no one dares to default on my Chen Changsheng’s debts.”
“You were tricked because you were outmatched, but I haven’t delayed any of our transactions.”
“I don’t default on others’ debts, and others shouldn’t think about defaulting on mine.”
As he spoke, Chen Changsheng’s tone turned cold.
Looking at the teacup Chen Changsheng offered again, Bai Qiuniang hesitated for a moment but ultimately took it.
Drinking the tea Chen Changsheng offered, Bai Qiuniang took out a wooden box.
“Screech~”
Bai Qiuniang’s nails left deep marks on the wooden box, but no matter how tightly she held it, Chen Changsheng still pulled it away.
“Hahaha!”
“That’s better.”
Chen Changsheng cheerfully put the wooden box away, and Zhang Zhen also showed a happy smile.
“What are you laughing at? This thing belongs to me and has nothing to do with you.”
Zhang Zhen: ?????
“Don’t look at me like that. Ten thousand accumulations for a method to save you, that’s the agreed price.”
“If you want me to save you, it’s still ten thousand accumulations.”
“But Immortal Tears are now in your hands.”
“I know, so you have to spend accumulations to buy them!”
“Ten thousand accumulations is a package deal. Buying Immortal Tears separately costs six thousand accumulations.”
Bai Qiuniang, Zhang Zhen: You
