Pagoda Immortality

Chapter 124: Silkworm Pupae in the Medicinal Garden

"It seems that you already know why I'm looking for you."

Mo Shang looked at Lu Li indifferently, "Logically speaking, you ruined my chance. I should have slapped you to death. However, since you are an alchemist, I will spare your life for now."

Hearing this, Lu Li finally felt relieved. As long as he didn't die immediately, there was still room for change.

However, Mo Shang's next actions plunged him into despair again.

Mo Shang took out a pitch-black elixir and handed it to Lu Li: "This elixir is called the Soul-Eating Pill. It will explode every month after you take it. If you don't have the antidote provided by me during this period, you will definitely die. From now on, just stay here and refine elixirs for me for the rest of your life."

At this point, regardless of whether Lu Li answered or not, he stepped forward, pinched Lu Li's mouth open, and shot the elixir directly into the depths of Lu Li's throat with a flick of his finger.

Cough cough cough cough....

Lu Li coughed violently, but it was of no avail as the elixir turned into a ball of black energy and rushed into his sea of ​​consciousness. However, the black energy did not attack him immediately after entering the sea of ​​​​consciousness, and directly disappeared, as if the scene just now had never happened.

Lu Li knew that this thing definitely didn't disappear, it was just buried. Like a demon hiding underground, it could pop out and take his life at any time.

His face was extremely ugly. As a result, even if he found a way to leave here, he might not be able to survive for more than a month.

"Boy, you look very angry." Mo Shang sat directly on the stone chair in front of him, looked directly at Lu Li, and roared hoarsely: "When it comes to anger, I was a hundred times more angry than you. If it weren’t for the great cause of our sect, you wouldn’t be able to survive in front of me!”

His fists clenched as he spoke, obviously trying to endure the resentment in his heart.

After a long time, he slowly loosened his fist, shook his head and sighed, "Well, maybe this is God's will." He stood up, his expression softened slightly and said calmly:

"As long as you are obedient, I will give you a Qingling Pill every month. With this pill, you can safely survive the outbreak period of the Soul-Eating Pill. However, if you dare to think wrong, I will not do it again. Show mercy."

Hearing this, Lu Li felt helpless, but he had no choice but to nod in agreement.

Perhaps because he was worried that he would not be able to suppress the murderous intention in his heart after spending too much time with Lu Li, Mo Shang stopped talking nonsense to Lu Li and took him out. He did not stop when he came to the square and took him directly to the west side of the square.

Lu Li remained silent all the way.

The two of them crossed the square and walked a few more steps down the stone steps before arriving at the entrance of a passage that went straight forward.

The passage looks very long and very dark. If it weren't for the faint light emitted by a luminous pearl every few feet on the top, it would be almost indistinguishable from the night.

Lu Li frowned slightly, thinking that if he stayed in a place like this all year round, he would probably get sick even if he wasn't sick. No wonder the people here didn't look very good.

Just when Lu Li thought Mo Shang was going to lead him further inside, Mo Shang stopped in front of the first stone room door on the right side of the passage entrance, turned around and said to Lu Li:

"Boy, the houses in this row on the right side of West 1st Lane all belong to the Zongmen Alchemy House. Don't say that I don't take care of you. This stone room is close to the square. As long as you complete a certain amount of alchemy tasks every day, I will allow you to come to this square. Take a breath.”

"Thank you, senior." Lu Li forced out an ugly smile, because he really couldn't be happy, and this method of giving a sweet date with a stick didn't have much effect here.

If he wasn't worried about offending the other person, he wouldn't even bother to smile.

Mo Shang didn't care. He walked forward and took out a jade plaque and opened the stone door. He turned sideways and looked at Lu Li, "Go in and get used to it first. I will send someone to inform you tomorrow what you need to do every day."

Perhaps because of the consideration of alchemy, this stone room is not as dark as Mo Shang's. The luminous pearls on the roof bloom with white light, almost like fluorescent lamps.

However, the layout of the room is relatively simple. Except for the alchemy area on the left, there is a round stone table in the middle, and on the right is a stone bed without a roof, without even a bedding on the bed.

Apart from that, there is nothing else.

When Lu Li entered the stone chamber, the stone door automatically closed. He looked around and found that there was no mechanism to open the stone door. However, there was a small hole at the foot of the stone door. People must not be able to get out. It should be for delivering food. The place to come in.

This made him feel like he was back when he was captured by Zhang Song and sent to Qingliang Temple.

Then he walked to the alchemy area and tested the ground fire, and found that the quality of the ground fire here was one level higher than that in Jinyangfang City. After turning the switch to the bottom, the blue flames burned his skin a little.

"There is no shortage of Earth Fire now." Lu Li thought with joy in his misery as he looked at the Earth Fire surging out in front of him.

Then, he came to sit down on the stone bed and thought about what he should do in the future.

The atmosphere here is so gloomy that it is obviously not a place for a normal sect to stay.

Combined with what Wu De said before, this may be the so-called Yin Corpse Sect. Just hearing the name alone does not mean that it is a good kind. Of course, this is Lu Li's subjective guess based on his own experiences and knowledge.

And if he wants to leave here, he must solve several problems.

First, where to leave and how to leave?

Second, is there a way to permanently remove the poison of the Soul Devouring Pill in his body, rather than temporarily relieving the pain? If this problem is not solved, it will be a huge problem.

After thinking about it, his head was about to explode, but Lu Li couldn't come up with a good solution, so he simply lay on the bed and didn't think about anything.

Half an hour later, he suddenly opened his eyes, and his consciousness sank into the space of the medicine garden.

Looking down from above, the gray fog appeared again. It jumped up and down in the medicine garden like a naughty child. Lu Li could clearly feel that the gray fog had condensed a little more, and it looked a bit like a giant gray silkworm pupa.

Out of curiosity, Lu Li directly transformed into his original form and entered the medicine garden and walked towards the 'silkworm pupa'.

The silkworm pupa seemed to have eyes. When it saw Lu Li appear in front of it, it raised its head humanely, and its head tilted back and forth, as if thinking about something. Lu Li found it very interesting, squatted down and tentatively touched its head.

The silkworm pupa instinctively tried to dodge, but it seemed to think that Lu Li had no ill intentions, so it froze in place.

Lu Li's hand finally touched the gray mist, which was soft and spongy, and felt very comfortable. Lu Li pressed it gently, wanting to put his hand into the gray mist to see what was wrapped inside.

But with this action, the gray silkworm pupa seemed to be facing a great enemy, and it screamed and disappeared directly from Lu Li's sight.

That's right, it disappeared out of thin air, and even if Lu Li used his spiritual sense, he could not find any trace of the other party.

"It ran away again."

Lu Li stood up and scratched his head depressedly, and then walked towards the direction of the red flame fruit tree.
