Mortals ask the immortals

Duan Qing was unmoved. Lin Ziyu was willing to lower her posture and apologize for teasing him before. He was not a petty person and would not care about the previous incident.

But things were one thing. He didn't want to have much contact with Lin Ziyu because he was afraid that she would find out that he was not a disciple of the Shinto Sect, which would cause trouble and even implicate Xue Wanyun, who had privately taught him the Suzaku Transformation technique.

How could this person be so petty!

Seeing that Duan Qing was unmoved, Lin Ziyu thought that Duan Qing was really angry about the previous incident, and she couldn't help but complain in her heart.

If she just gave up, if this sect mission failed, her breakthrough to the questioning state might be delayed for one or two years!

She would never be willing to waste so much time in vain!

Lin Ziyu gritted her teeth, took out a pill from the storage bracelet, and spread it in her hand.

"If Daoyou can help Ziyu kill the ghost king of the Ten-Li Ghost Forest and complete this sect mission, Ziyu is willing to give this pill to you!" Lin Ziyu said with some pain.

Duan Qing fixed his eyes on the red pill with three fire patterns in his hand, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Fire Spirit Pill!

Even with Duan Qing's shallow knowledge, he immediately recognized what the pill in Lin Ziyu's hand was.

Mainly because the pill was too famous!

In Yuan Wuwu's memory, the Five Elements Sect was most famous for two things. One was its supreme skill, the Five Elements Secret, which was applicable to any spiritual root of the five elements, and the other was the Five Elements Pill of the Five Elements Sect!

The alchemy of the Five Elements Sect was the best in the Middle Earth. The most famous one was the Five Elements Pill specially created for the Five Elements Secret, which could help those who practiced the Five Elements Secret to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

In addition to the Five Elements Pill, the spiritual pills of various attributes of the Five Elements Sect were also well-known, and they were all the pills that those who practiced the skills of various attributes dreamed of.

For example, the Fire Spirit Pill has similar medicinal effects to ordinary realm-breaking pills, which can help people break through realms. However, for people who practice fire-related techniques, the effect is much stronger than ordinary realm-breaking pills!

The Five Elements Sect's various attributed spiritual pills are divided into nine grades, corresponding to the various realms from the Transcendent Realm to the Spiritual Sea Realm!

The Fire Spirit Pill in Lin Ziyu's hand has three fire patterns on it, which corresponds to the late Transcendent Realm!

Duan Qing has always used spiritual liquid to break through realms, and has never used realm-breaking pills, but the two times he used spiritual liquid to break through were both extremely thrilling and not easy at all, and he broke through almost at the last moment.

So he doesn't think that the effect of spiritual liquid can be stronger than realm-breaking pills in breaking through realms, let alone the legendary Fire Spirit Pill!

It's probably because he had no choice twice before, so he used spiritual liquid to break through.

To be honest, he was quite tempted at the moment. After all, it was the Fire Spirit Pill. Although the Spiritual Liquid helped him break through twice, breaking through the Questioning Heart Realm was not like breaking through a small realm. It was a leap to a large realm. Therefore, he was not completely sure whether the Spiritual Liquid could successfully help him break through the Questioning Heart Realm!

But if there was this third-turn Fire Spirit Pill, then his chances of breaking through the Questioning Heart Realm would be much greater!

Looking at the Fire Spirit Pill in Lin Ziyu's hand, Duan Qing pondered for a moment and made a decision.

"Give me the Fire Spirit Pill first!"

He was too eager to break through the Questioning Heart Realm, and he really couldn't refuse the Fire Spirit Pill that could help him break through!

Although it might be risky to go to the Ten-Li Ghost Forest with him, it was not unbearable compared to the third-turn Fire Spirit Pill.

Didn't you say you had something to do before! As soon as this girl's Fire Spirit Pill came out, you showed your true colors! A guy who was greedy for money!

Lin Ziyu hesitated for a moment, thinking that Duan Qing's request was a bit rude, but since the other party was a disciple of the Shinto sect, he would not be a traitor, so he handed the Fire Spirit Pill to Duan Qing directly!

"I hope you will keep your promise!" Lin Ziyu said with a pained heart!

Duan Qing carefully took the third-turn Fire Spirit Pill, solemnly put it into the bag, and finally smiled.

"When are you going to leave, fellow Taoist?" Duan Qing was overjoyed. He was in a good mood after getting the Fire Spirit Pill.

"The sooner the better!" Lin Ziyu said immediately.

"Okay! Let's go now!" Duan Qing also made a straightforward decision.

Since he had received the other party's Fire Spirit Pill, Duan Qing didn't want to delay for a long time, so the study of alchemy could only be postponed for the time being!

"That couldn't be better!" Lin Ziyu was a little excited. With this person's help, this sect mission should be stable!

"By the way, I don't know what to call you, fellow Taoist?" Lin Ziyu remembered that she didn't know Duan Qing's name, so she asked quickly.

Duan Qing glanced at him with some amusement. "Isn't Fellow Daoist Lin my childhood sweetheart?"

Lin Ziyu's face was suddenly a little embarrassed. "Then call Fellow Daoist Lu!"

She also saw that Duan Qing didn't seem to intend to tell her real name, so she found a way out and didn't mention it anymore.

Duan Qing nodded, which was considered as tacitly accepting Lin Ziyu's name!

"Fellow Daoist Lin, lead the way!"

...

Both of them were anxious to complete the matter as soon as possible, so they set out to leave the city without delay.

Although both of them were not slow, it took them half a day to walk out of the city from the house, and it was already afternoon when they left the city.

According to Lin Ziyu's words, Yuequan Lake is located 3,000 miles west of Liuyue City. With Duan Qing's speed, he can reach it in one or two hours if he exerts all his strength.

However, with Lin Ziyu there, Duan Qing just flew at a normal speed. When he finally arrived at Yuequan Lake, the sun had already set in the west, and it was about to get dark!

On the way, Duan Qing found that the closer he got to Yuequan Lake, the lower the terrain became. Yuequan Lake seemed to be in a basin.

From the sky, the Yuequan Lake mentioned by Lin Ziyu was half-moon shaped and about dozens of miles in size. Although it was not completely dark yet, the reflection of the full moon in the sky could be seen from the lake!

Under the guidance of Lin Ziyu, the two landed steadily on a rocky beach on the north side of Yuequan Lake.

"The Ghost Forest is three miles north of Yuequan Lake, but it is late today. The ghosts are stronger at night. Fellow Daoist Lu, let's wait until tomorrow to enter the Ghost Forest!" Lin Ziyu explained to Duan Qing.

Duan Qing nodded in response, and then asked Lin Ziyu. "Fellow Daoist Lin, I don't know what the ghost king you want to kill is, and how strong is it?"

Before going, he must first figure out what the goal of this trip is. It is not his style to act rashly.

Lin Ziyu didn't feel strange at all that Duan Qing asked this question. Shenzhou, where the Shinto Sect is located, is more than ten thousand miles away from Yuezhou, so it is not strange that he doesn't know about this ten-mile ghost forest.

In fact, if she hadn't accepted this mission from the sect, she wouldn't have known that there was such a place in Yuezhou!

Lin Ziyu pondered for a moment and told Duan Qing all the information she knew.

The land where Yuequan Lake is located is relatively barren, and there are no immortal sects or forces. Since ancient times, only mortals have lived within hundreds of miles of Yuequan Lake, but even mortals are very few.

It is said that there was once a mortal city-state near Yuequan Lake, but later, no one knew what happened, the city-state disintegrated, blood flowed into a river overnight, and the surviving people were displaced and moved away from Yuequan Lake!

Countless souls who died unjustly for no reason, resentment soared to the sky, and the unique terrain around Yuequan Lake, gathering yin and blocking yang, made the resentment linger for many years. Over time, many ghosts were born, and it was gradually called the Ten-Li Ghost Forest.

Now, there are no mortals within dozens of miles around Yuequan Lake, and because of the existence of the Ten-Li Ghost Forest, Yuequan Lake is also called an ominous place, and no mortal dares to set foot in it!
