Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?!-Chapter 944 - 824: Take It Easy, Sir_3

Jiang Yuan instead perked up, "Miss He, your words are slightly off. How can it be a dead end? Exorcising a heart demon is not as hard as it seems; I have two methods to choose from—firstly, refining a Clear Heart Pill.

This elixir, when consumed, can clear the mind and settle the spirit, expelling distracting thoughts. Long-term use can restrain the heart demon. The drawback is it requires a lot of spirit medicine and time. Also, it's uncertain whether the Clear Heart Pill for Human Race cultivators would be effective for ghost cultivators. If ineffective, we would need to find the corresponding pill formula;

The second method is much simpler..."

As he spoke, he pulled a Demon-Subduing Pestle from his storage bag. "This is a divine artifact specifically for exorcising heart demons, with no other superfluous needs. The drawback is: getting hit will be painful, extremely painful!"

Just look at Yan Xuan, with its thick hide and tough skin, it couldn't withstand it, let alone ghost cultivators whose realms are not so high?

It's no wonder the Demon-Subduing Pestle, admired by the benevolent for its benevolence and the wise for its wisdom, immediately caught their attention once revealed.

In the eyes of the two ghost cultivators, this divine artifact was filled with Yin Fiend Qi, like the fieriest torture instrument from the Eighteen Layers of Hell; In Bai Yunqi's eyes, the Demon-Subduing Pestle appeared full of spiritual energy and awe-inspiring.

Due to the special tool imbued with the power of systematic blessing, Jiang Yuan didn't need to explain much, as they sensed its presence and were all amazed by it.

He Miancun, who maintained a dignified and elegant demeanor, was slightly out of character, her jade-like complexion trembling slightly, and she whispered, "Wouldn't a strike from this divine artifact be deadly?"

Qu Luming nodded vigorously in agreement, "How about we try to find the pill formula and consume the elixir instead? Anyway, Senior He's lifespan is long, there's no rush. This, just looking at it makes my scalp tingle, and considering Senior is a delicate young lady, how could she endure it?"

"But this works fastest. Furthermore, I can hit lightly, ensuring it won't be fatal." Jiang Yuan had never used the Demon-Subduing Pestle on other cultivators before. The system marked that the opponent's heart demon was very severe, and he really wanted to test the Pestle's effectiveness.

He Miancun was somewhat conflicted; alchemy was naturally the most reliable.

The issue is she would have to find the pill formula and gather the ingredients, and in this current chaotic state of the Netherworld, it's unknown how long it would take to get effective elixir, or how much she would need to consume to completely eliminate the heart demon.

"Why don't I give it a try first?" She furrowed her brows, thinking that it might be worth a try, and maybe enduring some physical pain could solve the major problem that had stalled her cultivation. Wouldn't that be convenient?

Mustering the courage to take the hit, He Miancun bowed and softly said, "Please go easy on me, sir. This divine artifact looks rather frightening."

"Don't worry, Miss He, I will be very gentle." Jiang Yuan had practiced with Yan Xuan before, and with it as a reference, he had some accuracy when making a move. He immediately lifted the Demon-Subduing Pestle high and let it fall gently.

"Duang!"

[He Miancun Heart Demon -100]

[Heart Demon Remaining: 20551]

Watching the red numbers float across his field of vision, Jiang Yuan thought to himself that this lady is indeed stubborn; her heart demon had exceeded twenty thousand!

One hit only reduced a hundred, how many times will it take to succeed?

"Hiss!" Even though the movement was extremely gentle, she still gasped from the pain, but fortunately, she could withstand it and did not faint from the pain.

Moreover, with one strike, the pain hit her soul directly, and He Miancun could feel the heart demon, which usually lingered within ready to erupt at any moment, indeed lightened just a little.

The effect was immediate, but firstly, each strike was intensely painful, requiring a rest before she could take another; secondly, each strike dispersed only a small portion of the heart demon, and at this rate, it would take at least half a year to completely eradicate it.

Surely Mr. Jiang couldn't venture into the Netherworld every day for this matter, and could it be that she would have to follow him around, seeking beatings every day?
