"Father Niu, we heard that most of the elixirs sold in that shop was made by themselves, that's why we thought about going to take a look at the pill repository." continued Yi Qing. "Both Master and I examined that pill repository, and there was no Soul Extracting Pill. Those elixirs with problems were all finished pills as well. The shopkeeper said they were specially made by others and in the whole immortal city only they had them, but he wouldn't tell us where those pills came from."

"So... you guys directly burned those elixirs to draw those people out?"

"Yes."

"Even if this is the case, this matter has nothing to do with us, right? Why are you interfering with such matters?" Although the behavior of adding Soul Extracting Pills to elixirs to destroy consciousness was far too villainous, with so many cultivators in the world, there were sure to be some evil ones, and it was impossible for them to deal with every matter. The Heavenly Dao would naturally set things to order when the time came. "In any case, didn't you say that Soul Extracting Pills are used in very small amounts and won't affect cultivation? You may just find an opportunity to point out!"

"Indeed, but what was strange was that the seriously injured cultivator actually specifically requested us to buy from that shop." Yi Qing frowned. "I suggested that he buy Spirit Molding Pills instead, as the price was similar but elixirs for fixing meridians was more effective under his condition. But he refused."

"You're saying..." Lonemoon stopped for a second. "that the cultivator might have known that there was Soul Extracting Pill in those elixirs?"

Yi Qing nodded.

"That's impossible. Why did he deliberately eat such elixirs that are harmful to consciousness for? Was he mad? Was he too impatient to die?"

Wait a moment!

"Where's that cultivator?"

"He left after eating the elixirs." Yi Qing's face darkened. "However, his injuries were very serious at the time, and his foundation was already destroyed. Even with a whole bottle of Qi Preserving Pills it'd be difficult to preserve his life. Even if he was okay, he wouldn't be able to cultivate afterwards. I found it very strange, so I left a tracing spell on him. Yet after two hours..." He directly took out a talisman paper. On it, the spell talisman which was originally golden had turned black, with a faint bit of death Qi floating upon it.

"He's dead?!" Lonemoon was stunned. He looked more carefully at that talisman paper, and realized that though there was death Qi, there was no baleful Qi, which meant that... "He committed suicide! How poor was his mental capacity? Dying well was worse than living badly. Just because he couldn't cultivate any more, he killed himself? What use was buying elixirs then.

"No, Father Niu. Look at it more carefully." Yi Qing directly handed over the talisman paper.

Lonemoon took it over. Subconsciously, he followed the trace of that death Qi, but realized that among the death Qi, there was also a little bit of live Qi which was hard to notice. Newly-born life Qi. "Holy shit! He was reincarnated? So fast!" Wait, no, with such speed... "His soul was directly reincarnated without entering the Underworld!"

"Yup." Yi Qing nodded. "His being reincarnated so fast must have something to do with that Soul Extracting Pill. There may be some hidden matters here."

Lonemoon frowned deeper and deeper. If this was really the case, they'd have no choice but to intervene. All living beings of the world have to pass through the River of Forgetfulness into Underworld before entering Samsara because of nothing else but the fact that souls are exhausted regardless of the length of time it spent in the world. This could be noticed by nobody else except the three of them and Shortie. Souls go in and out of the River of Forgetfulness for no other reason but that such time was required to replenish the soul to its complete state.
