blood contract

At this moment, Dongfang Huiye and others saw the opportunity and rushed out from the cracks in the rocks, and started fighting with the bounty hunters again.

Soon, they all went to report to the King of Hell.

"Big brother……"

Xiaohua grabbed the grass and stood firmly on the grass flying sword. She kept waving at Dian and Feng, with a bright smile on her face.

Seeing two children flying towards them,

Yu asked curiously, "Do you know her?"

Dian nodded and briefly recounted what they had encountered before.

Hey——

Xiaohua jumped off Xiaocao's flying sword, and happily hopped over to Dian and the others with the medicine basket on her back, her bright eyes full of concern.

"Are you all okay?"

"Hahaha...we are of course fine, but I didn't realize you are so amazing, Xiaohua!" Dian praised her sincerely.

"Hehe... well, it's nothing!" Xiaohua's face flushed, and she felt a little embarrassed.

"It's all thanks to my brother Xiaocao! Whenever I'm in danger, he always protects me."

The eyes of Dongfang Huiye and others immediately fell on the boy next to her.

He did not have the ordinary aura like the girl. On the contrary, his cultivation had reached the middle stage of the third level of the Free and Easy Realm. He had a sharp aura that should not be underestimated and was faintly intimidating.

They were not unfamiliar with this kind of aura, as it was the unique sword aura cultivated by sword cultivators.

This kind of sword aura often requires the sword cultivator's natural talent to cultivate this unique sword aura. Looking at the boy in front of him, he has already cultivated sword aura at such a young age, which shows that his talent is very high, which is truly rare.

"Okay! I've heard what Xiaohua said about your affairs."

There was a solemn look on Xiaocao's serious face.

"If you want to get out of the mountain, then follow me!"

……

Deep in the valley, in a thatched cottage.

A man in red and a man in white, silver hair and wearing a half-mask sat opposite each other, and a silent game quietly unfolded.

On the chessboard, black and white chess pieces were crisscrossed, and the two men were sometimes in deep thought, sometimes making eye contact.

Snapped!

The crisp sound of the black piece in the red-clothed man's hand falling was like the sound of a war drum on the battlefield, launching a thunderous attack on the white piece...

Facing the offensive of the man in red, the silver-haired man in white who was playing against him stared at the chessboard, gently stroking the chess pieces with his fingers, and after thinking for a moment, slowly dropped the white piece in his hand.

"Oh! Ye boy, this move is really great!"

The red-clothed man raised his lips, pointed at the white piece and said, "Use attack as defense, try to disrupt the rhythm of the attack... But, how can this stop me?"

As he spoke, Heizi landed another spot, "How are you going to deal with this step, Ye boy?"

Ye Tiancheng's eyes fixed under the mask. After carefully observing the situation on the chessboard, he slowly placed the white piece.

This move immediately stunned the man in red. After a moment, he burst into laughter.

"So you were waiting for me here. Ye is an extraordinary chess player. I lost, but I accept it with all my heart."

Ye Tiancheng bowed and said, "Mr. Ren is too modest."

"Well, if I lose, I lose. I still have some tolerance."

Mr. Ren raised his hand to smooth his hair, stood up and stretched, saying:

"Come on, it's time to start the furnace for the elixir you're refining."

……

As they walked forward, Higashigeya and the others could clearly feel the surrounding scenery constantly changing, as if they were in a huge maze. Every step they took gave them the illusion of being lost.

The person who could set up such a powerful formation in Black Wind Mountain must be a hidden master.

They couldn't help but guess that the master of these two children was probably "Master Xiuyun".

Finally, within their sight, a small farmyard of an ordinary farmer's family was quietly located in the deep valley.

Exotic flowers are blooming all around, emitting charming fragrance that is lingering and intoxicating.

Xiaohua pointed at the hut excitedly.

"Here we are!"

She chirped like a happy little bird,

“Master, we are back!…Master…Master…Where are you, Master?”

However, after searching the house and the courtyard, he could not find any trace of his master.

Xiao Hua couldn't help but wonder, "Hey, where did he go again?"

At this time, Xiao Cao pointed to the top of the mountain and said, "In the alchemy room!"

Looking in the direction pointed by the grass, I saw wisps of green smoke rising into the sky.

"Oh, Master is still in the alchemy room? There is nothing we can do. You can only wait for Master to come out."

Xiaohua asked Dongfang Huiye and others to sit down while speaking, and politely made tea for the guests.

Seeing the more handsome Kaguya Touhou, she naturally pestered him and started asking him all kinds of questions!

……

Rumble!

On the top of the mountain, thick dark clouds gathered quickly, and electric arcs in the clouds shuttled between the clouds, flashing dazzling light.

As the thunder rolled in, a bolt of lightning came down with a loud bang, like a huge purple dragon, carrying the power of destruction, and struck the roof of the alchemy room.

Dongfang Huiye and the others were shocked. This, this is, a pill tribulation? ! !

The little flower and the little grass seemed calm, as if they had seen this scene many times.

As everyone knows, the birth of a precious elixir will be accompanied by a thunder tribulation. After a few thunder tribulations, we can tell the grade of the elixir.

When the thunderbolt came into contact with the precious elixir, there was a thunderous sound that shook the earth, and the light was so bright that the earth trembled.

Soon after, the second and third came one after another, each one thicker and more violent than the previous one.

The light of the thunderbolt illuminated the entire world, and the mountains, rivers and streams seemed small and fragile under this light.

"Hahaha..." Mr. Ren laughed and patted Ye Tiancheng's shoulder.

"Young man Ye, our elixir is ready."

Ye Tiancheng's body was slightly shaken by the slap he made, but he remained silent. He just looked up in a daze at the pill that was stubbornly resisting the violent thunder and emitting a mysterious and dazzling light.

After eight thunder tribulations, the dark clouds gradually dissipated and everything between heaven and earth returned to peace.

"...Eight? What a shame, what a shame, one step away from achieving the ultimate, a perfect ninth-grade cloud pattern pill. What a pity!"

There was a look of deep regret in Mr. Ren's eyes.

You know, even the value of a fourth-grade Cloud Pattern Pill can trigger competition among all major forces... let alone the emergence of an eighth-grade Cloud Pattern Pill. The turmoil it will cause is even more unimaginable.

"I am already very satisfied that I can refine the eighth-grade cloud pattern pill."

As he said this, Ye Tiancheng bowed deeply to Mr. Ren.

"Thank you, Mr. Ren, for helping me refine this Xuanbing Kaiyuan Pill."

Mr. Ren waved his hand gently.

“I was not able to help you much in this, everything still depends on your solid alchemy skills.

Young people are really formidable! Talent like yours is rare. Don't you consider becoming my disciple? I believe that in time, your skills in the Dao of Alchemy will be limitless!"

"I appreciate Mr. Ren's appreciation and kindness, but I still have something to worry about!"

"That's all! It's not bad to have a young man like you playing chess with me."

As he said this, Mr. Ren laughed out loud.

The laughter echoed throughout the valley.

"Congratulations, Master. Congratulations, Master. Welcome, Master, to come out of retreat!"
