Eighteen soul pills were a small fortune for any ordinary Burial Master, and Yang Haoran was no exception.
Having obtained eighteen soul pills, Yang Haoran was in a great mood, and his smile had beco even more radiant.
Xu ijing sensed Yang Haoran's good mood, which only made her more puzzled.
If Yang Haoran didn't hand over so many souls and instead used them to refine soul pills himself, he would definitely gain more soul pills than what the underworld provided. So, she couldn't understand why Yang Haoran was so happy.
"Let's finish up and head back to the mortal world. We don't want to waste any more ti here," Xu ijing said to Yang Haoran.
Xu ijing was anxious to return, not only because she was worried about Ancheng causing trouble but also because she wanted to resolve her own doubts.
"Hold on, I still want to explore the underworld and learn so Ghost Techniques to enhance my combat power," Yang Haoran replied.
Upon hearing this, Xu ijing's eyes lit up, as if she had been enlightened by Yang Haoran's words.
"I've been too busy lately, and I almost forgot about this. As newcors, we don't know any Ghost Techniques, so we really need to learn so to boost our strength," Xu ijing said.
"Do you know where we can find Ghost Techniques?" Yang Haoran asked.
If Xu ijing knew, he wouldn't have to bother Master Jiang again. But if she didn't know, he would have to muster up the courage to ask Master Jiang for help.
However, Yang Haoran didn't expect that when he asked, Xu ijing would look at him with a strange gaze.
"What's... what's going on?" Yang Haoran asked, feeling embarrassed by Xu ijing's gaze.
"Do you really not know, or are you pretending not to know?" Xu ijing asked.
"You an how to obtain Ghost Techniques? I really don't know, and I wouldn't pretend in front of you, would I?" Yang Haoran replied with a bitter smile.
"We've been in our positions for a few years now, and you still don't know how to get Ghost Techniques?" Xu ijing said, her expression incredulous.
Yang Haoran felt embarrassed by her words, but at the sa ti, he was relieved to hear that Xu ijing seed to know how to obtain Ghost Techniques.
"Hehe, you know more than I do, so please tell in detail," Yang Haoran said with a smile.
Xu ijing smiled and shook her head, looking helpless.
"I really can't tell if you're being genuine or pretending. You're always so good at acting."
Yang Haoran was at a loss for words. He really didn't know, but from Xu ijing's attitude, it seed like she didn't believe him.
"My grandma, I, Yang Haoran, can swear to heaven that I really don't know. Please just tell , we don't have ti to waste on this," Yang Haoran said with a bitter smile.
"Fine, I'll tell you everything. Just consider it as satisfying my vanity," Xu ijing said with a smile.
Yang Haoran knew that Xu ijing still didn't believe him, thinking that he was pretending to be ignorant to satisfy her vanity.
He could only smile helplessly and wait for Xu ijing to continue.
"There's a three-story pavilion next to the square in the underworld, called the Ghost Technique Pavilion. This is where the Yin Division stores various Ghost Techniques. If you want to learn Ghost Techniques, you have to go there."
Xu ijing didn't press the issue of whether Yang Haoran was pretending or not and instead told him about the Ghost Technique Pavilion.
"Ghost Technique Pavilion?"
Yang Haoran's eyebrows slightly furrowed, as if he was recalling sothing.
Initially, he had also spent ti wandering around the underworld for a few days, but during those days, he had focused on the various shops in the underworld. Additionally, the underworld was so vast that even after spending several days there, he hadn't been able to explore the entire place. Therefore, he had no impression of the Ghost Technique Pavilion that Xu ijing ntioned.
After thinking for a mont, he realized that he had no mory of the Ghost Technique Pavilion, so he shook his head and didn't continue thinking about it.
Xu ijing noticed Yang Haoran's reaction and saw that he really didn't know anything about the Ghost Technique Pavilion, so she continued to explain.
"Whether it's an Underworld Envoy from the mortal world or a ghost attendant from the underworld, anyone can enter the Ghost Technique Pavilion to learn Ghost Techniques. This pavilion is like our library in the mortal world, except that every ti you enter, you need to pay a certain number of soul pills. The longer you stay in the pavilion, the more soul pills you need to pay."
Yang Haoran's eyebrows twitched, and he gained a deeper understanding of the Ghost Technique Pavilion, but he also felt a bit puzzled.
"Is this Ghost Technique Pavilion private or affiliated with our Yin Division?" Yang Haoran asked.
"Of course, it's affiliated with the official division. A private individual couldn't possibly manage so many Ghost Techniques," Xu ijing replied.
"Since it's affiliated with the official division, we have to pay soul pills to cultivate Ghost Techniques. This is also... too... exciting."
Yang Haoran originally wanted to say that it was too exploitative, but he felt that it wasn't quite appropriate, so he quickly changed his words.
"The official division must have its reasons for doing this. Complaining won't change the outco," Xu ijing said with a smile.
"Heh heh, I'm not complaining. I just have a slight sense of wonder. By the way, how does the Ghost Technique Pavilion charge? If it's one soul pill, how long can you stay inside?" Yang Haoran asked with a smile.
"One soul pill only allows you to stay in the lowest level of the Ghost Technique Pavilion for an hour. The second level of the pavilion requires two soul pills per hour, and the third level requires ten soul pills per hour," Xu ijing explained.
Yang Haoran's facial expression froze. Although he had ntally prepared himself, he still didn't expect that entering the Ghost Technique Pavilion would be so expensive, especially the third floor, which required ten soul pills per hour.
Ten soul pills were equivalent to several years' worth of salary for an ordinary Underworld Envoy. However, this salary could only afford to stay in the third floor of the Ghost Technique Pavilion for an hour.
Moreover, the difference in soul pills consud between the second and third floors was a staggering fivefold, which was a huge gap.
"The first floor of the Ghost Technique Pavilion only has so ordinary Ghost Techniques, so the soul pill consumption is the lowest. The second floor has Ghost Techniques that are much more powerful than the first floor, because they are all interdiate-level Ghost Techniques. The third floor is expensive because it has high-level Ghost Techniques from the Yin Division, which are far beyond what the second floor can compare to. As for the first floor, it's even more impossible to compare to the third floor," Xu ijing explained.
The high cost of the Ghost Technique Pavilion was beyond Yang Haoran's expectations. At this point, he understood why he hadn't obtained many Ghost Techniques at Deng Feng's villa, because the Ghost Techniques in the pavilion were not sothing that ordinary Underworld Envoys could cultivate.
"Do you have to go to the Ghost Technique Pavilion to cultivate Ghost Techniques?"
Yang Haoran lowered his voice and asked Xu ijing in her ear.
He asked this because the Ghost Techniques he was currently cultivating were all obtained without going through the Ghost Technique Pavilion, which ant that the pavilion was not the only way to cultivate Ghost Techniques.
Xu ijing nodded lightly and gave a affirmative answer to Yang Haoran's question.
"You're right. You don't necessarily have to go to the Ghost Technique Pavilion to cultivate Ghost Techniques. You can also obtain Ghost Techniques through other channels, such as getting them from other Underworld Envoys. However, getting Ghost Techniques from other Underworld Envoys also requires paying a certain price, and even if you're willing to pay, the other party may not be willing to teach you."
After a brief pause, Xu ijing continued.
"There's another important point. Getting Ghost Techniques from other Underworld Envoys doesn't offer much choice, but entering the Ghost Technique Pavilion is different. As long as you can pay enough soul pills, you'll have a vast array of Ghost Techniques to choose from. You can choose the Ghost Techniques you like and are suitable for you to learn."
