And when Zhou Bo was at a loss, Qinglong suddenly said: "Don't think about this anymore, the game is about to start." Hearing this, Zhou Bo hurriedly looked at the arena below the field and found that everyone had already taken out their own pill tripods and started the first round of the game.
At this time, I heard Na Bai Chang shouting to all the contestants from the sidelines: "The competition time is half an hour, during this time, you must refine a third-level herb, each person has two chances, if both times fail to refine, they will be eliminated, and if they exceed an hour, they will also be eliminated." ”
As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar, you know, usually the first round of the competition is at most to refine a second-level herb, but today as soon as he came up, he said that he wanted to refine the third-level herbs, which was really unexpected by everyone, and this also shows from the side that the strength of the contestants in this competition is very strong, so the difficulty of the exam will be raised so high.
While the audience was discussing, many of the contestants on the field had already selected herbs and were ready to start alchemy, Zhou Bo took a closer look, and found that Xu Du's faces flashed with helpless expressions, as if they were also quite embarrassed by the difficulty of this competition, and compared to them, Xin Yuan and Dai Jin were both calm, it seemed that this kind of difficult competition was not difficult for them, and then looked at a few people from Tongqingmen, they were not too surprised, Long Baiyu and Wei Yue began to concentrate on choosing herbs, and that Xunyang had already begun to refine.
Seeing this, Zhou Bo relaxed slightly, but he also knew that the situation in Tongqingmen was very grim now, and if Jin Xiao and Mo Rongmo were really allowed to do so, Tongqingmen might face the disaster of extinction at any time.
Zhou Bo was anxious, and at this time, Qinglong suddenly said, "Zhou Bo, you should call him over." ”
"Who?" Zhou Bo was stunned for a moment, and then he seemed to think of something, so he said excitedly: "Senior, are you talking about the senior?"
"Huh...... Yes. Qinglong smiled and said, "Since you entered the Eight Flame Mountains, you have lost contact with him, just because the spiritual consciousness in your body was incinerated by the earth fire and turned invisible, now that you have come out, it is better to talk to him." ”
Zhou Bo also agreed with Qinglong's point of view, after all, he hadn't spoken to the pharmacist of the Ming Pill for a year, and the current situation was still complicated after all, the two Ming Emperors could find trouble with the Qingmen at any time, at the moment, he didn't dare to hesitate anymore, and hurriedly shouted in his heart: "The senior??"
But after shouting several times, there was still no reaction at all, which made Zhou Bo a little suspicious in his heart if he couldn't hear his voice at all, thinking of the previous few times he shouted out the Ming, he used more extreme methods to refine his spirit embryo, could it be that this time he had to pretend to refine the spirit embryo?
But as soon as he thought of this, Zhou Bo suddenly heard an extremely ethereal voice in his heart: "Zhou Bo?"
"Senior Mingming?!" As soon as he heard this familiar voice, Zhou Bo was really surprised and happy in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Senior Mingming, is it really you?"
"Huh?" Yu Ming didn't answer Zhou Bo's question, but let out a very puzzled sound, and suddenly, he asked in surprise: "Wait a minute, where are you now? ”
Zhou Bo hurriedly said, "I am now in the Mortal Medicine Sect, and a medicine refining competition is being held here. ”
"The ...... of the Medicine Refining Competition" Yu Ming muttered softly, as if he had suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Is the Seven Ming Emperors also here?" ”
"No, there were only four of them. As soon as Zhou Bo said this, he suddenly heard Yu Ming ask again in surprise: "You...... How did you improve your cultivation so much??"
"Zhou Bo, where have you been all this year?" As soon as he finished speaking, he asked a stern question, which made Zhou Bo stunned for a moment, so he hurriedly explained: "Senior Zhou, I have been cultivating in the Eight Flame Mountains this year!"
"The Eight Flame Mountains?" The tone of the Eight Flame Mountains was slightly raised, as if he was a little surprised, and asked, "The Eight Flame Mountains are full of earth fire, why did you go to that cultivation?"
Hearing this, Zhou Bo smiled, and quickly sorted out the events of this year in his mind, and then slowly told him to listen to him.
There are really a lot of things that happened this year, first of all, he helped Zhou Bo refine fifteen Soul Body Fire Pills that day, and then Zhou Bo used this pill to exchange with Guo Lao's Purple Soul Stone, so he absorbed one more Purple Soul Stone, and then Guo Lao decided to take him to the Eight Flame Mountains to cultivate in order to repay Zhou Bo.
When he heard this, he suddenly realized: "I forgot about this, that Guo Guzi is the refining of the earth fire and the eight flames, and it is reasonable to take you there to cultivate." And Zhou Bo was a little speechless and thought, if he could have told himself these things earlier, he wouldn't have misunderstood Guo Lao all the time.
Next, Zhou Bo told Zhou Ming how to come to Chongjia Town, how to meet Gu Luo, and then went to the Fire Heart Realm to seal the earth fire to Tan Ming, of course, this also includes how to meet Chu Ling, and find Chu Ling's parents and Huo Yunjing, but Tan Ming didn't seem to have any interest in these, and listened with peace of mind, but didn't speak.
And when Zhou Bo said that he had entered the Nine Pillars Forbidden Array alone, he was shocked: "What? You entered? Don't you know that there is a ghost beast sealed by Chongyue Shu in there?"
When Zhou Bo heard this, he hurriedly asked: "Senior Mingming, how do you know that there are ghost beasts there?" ”
Hearing Tan Ming say that his master, Zhou Bo was a little surprised in his heart, what kind of person could teach such a strong apprentice to become the number one pill pharmacist in the Gunan Continent, and at this moment, Tan Ming asked again: "Zhou Bo, tell me quickly, did you enter the Nine Pillars Forbidden Array and see that ghost beast?"
Hearing this, Zhou Bo smiled in his heart, and hurriedly explained how he met Manxi, how to use the ancient spell to rescue her, and then used the ancient force to fight with Jia'an, who was hidden in the dark.
"I didn't expect you to be able to use that legendary ancient force. When Zhou Bo finished speaking, he was silent for a while before speaking, and Zhou Bo was also very curious about this matter, so he asked: "Senior Shenming, what does that ancient spell have to do with ancient martial arts?"
Xiao Ming slowly explained: "Because the Nine Pillars Forbidden Array was set up with Chongyue Zhi's spiritual power, and the ancient spell in your body was transformed by Chongyue Zhen's spiritual power, so you rescued that ghost beast by mistake. Speaking of this, he sighed softly, and said: "And because the spiritual power of the Nine Pillars Forbidden Array was transformed by you, it will greatly enhance the power of the ancient spell in your body, I think, that's why you can use the power of Chongyue Tree." ”
Zhou Bo used to think so, but now when he heard that Yu Ming also said this, he decided on this explanation in his heart, and now he thinks about it, why after he rescued Manxi, the ancient spell in his brain changed into a ball of white light, it turned out that he absorbed the power of Chongyue Zhi in the Nine Pillars Forbidden Array! And after that white light ancient spell was absorbed by himself, many very unfamiliar pictures would flash back in his mind, and it seemed that this should be the real memory of Chongyue Shu hidden in the ancient mantra.
Now that this matter has been sorted out, Zhou Bo has no doubts about the rest of the things, and at this time he said how he cultivated in Chongjia Town after returning from the Fire Heart Realm, which includes absorbing the Aoyang Flame Juice and practicing the space ring, and for these, Zhou Bo nodded yes, and it seemed that he was very satisfied with Zhou Bo's cultivation in the past year.
Finally, after Zhou Bo finished speaking, he was very pleased and said: "It seems that Guo Guzi has contributed a lot this year!" Hearing this, Zhou Bo just smiled casually and did not speak.
After a short silence, Zhou Ming asked again: "By the way, Zhou Bo, is there anything you called me over today?" Hearing this, Zhou Bo suddenly remembered the purpose of calling him here today, and hurriedly said: "Senior Ming, there is a problem with Qingmen." ”
"What's going on?" asked indifferently, as if he didn't believe it, and Zhou Bo hurriedly said, "Do you remember that you killed that Jin Ye with my body in Zihan City a year ago?"
After thinking about it, he said out loud: "It seems that there is such a thing." Seeing that the Ming Ming said so casually, Zhou Bo suddenly wanted to roll his eyes, but he still hurriedly said: "Senior Mingming, you don't know, since you killed that Jin Ye, I have been wanted by the Jin family, but the Jin family thinks that Tong Qingmen did it, so they have been looking for trouble with Tong Qingmen, and today the head of the Jin family is also here, so I am afraid that they will find trouble again." ”
"What kind of cultivation is he?"
Zhou Bo hurriedly replied: "His name is Jin Xiao, he is one of the Seven Ming Emperors of the Ancient South Continent, and his cultivation is the fourth level of Yingfu. ”
Hearing this, Yu Ming suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Although I am now in the Diluo Realm and cannot exert my full strength, it should be barely possible to deal with a Ying Decoration Master. ”
These words made Zhou Bo a little embarrassed, because in addition to Jin Xiao, there was another master here who had to be guarded against, and that was Murong Mo, who was also the Ming Emperor. At this time, when he saw that he was silent, he was quite embarrassed and said, "But...... There is also a master of embellishment. ”
"What do you mean?" Yu Ming was also taken aback at this time, and Zhou Bo said very helplessly: "Do you remember when you killed Jin Ye in Zihan City, you also beat a man to a serious injury?"
"I don't remember. Zhou Bo was accustomed to the rotten memory of Ming Ming, so he explained directly: "The man you injured that day is named Gao Kui, and he is one of the apprentices of Emperor Ming, and now she, like Jin Xiao, also wants to trouble Tongqingmen." ”
Hearing what Zhou Bo said, he was also silent, and after a while, he said in a heavy tone: "Because I am using your body now, my strength has been greatly reduced, and my cultivation is above and below the fourth or fifth level." After a pause, he said again: "And this kind of cultivation can only fight with one Ming Emperor at most, but if it is two Ming Emperors together, I'm afraid it will be a little unbearable." ”
This made Zhou Bo a little embarrassed, he didn't expect that there was no way to even be sluggish, how could this be good!?
And when Zhou Bo was worried about this matter, he suddenly saw that all the pill pharmacists in the arena had stopped their movements, and the flame of the medicine pod was also quickly extinguished, and he no longer went to refine the herbs.
At this time, I saw that the two old men of Han Bai and Han Hei walked up to the stage and began to announce the elimination and passing of the contestants, and for this kind of assessment project of refining herbs, Zhou Bo felt that everyone from the same Qingmen should be able to pass the test.
Sure enough, no one from Tongqingmen passed the test without exception, and Xin Yuan and Dai Jin also passed the test, and after the two referees finished reading out, there were more than 140 people left in the group of 200 people at this time.
And Zhou Bo thought in his heart at this time: This first round has brushed off a quarter of the people, so 1,300 people will have to brush down more than 3 or 400 people! I really didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary first round would be so difficult.
"Zhou Bo, Jin Xiao and Mo Rongmo have acted. Just as Zhou Bo was paying attention to the field, Qinglong suddenly said, hearing this, Zhou Bo hurriedly turned around and looked at the VIP area next to him, and saw Jin Xiao and Mo Rong Mo getting up and walking down, beside Mo Rong Mo, followed by the charming Mei Lan. And the two Ming Emperors acted at the same time, which also surprised the audience and contestants in the venue, and for a while, the audience began to discuss what this Ming Emperor was going to do.
Of course, Zhou Bo knew that these two Ming Emperors were looking for trouble with Tongqingmen, so he didn't hesitate at the moment, quickly stood up, and then chased after the three of them.
Zhou Bo followed the figures of the two Ming Emperor and Mei Lan, all the way out of the Natian Alchemy Field, just out of the gate of the arena, the three of them stopped, seeing this, Zhou Bo also hurriedly stood in the corner, watching this side carefully.
"Master, the people from Tongqingmen are estimated to come out soon, so let's wait for him here. At this time, Mei Lan whispered to Murong Mo, who was wearing a bright red dress, and after speaking, she was very angry and said to herself: "That old man dared to instigate his disciple to injure my senior brother, he really should have been broken into pieces." ”
Seeing that Mo Rongmo nodded, then looked at the door in front of him, and said coldly: "Lan'er, don't worry, as long as that Ji Ling child comes out from here, I will definitely make him look good." ”
Zhou Bo was shocked at this time, it seemed that his guess was really good, this Mo Rong Mo was really Mei Lan's master.
This is really a big disaster, not only did he kill Jin Guan, angered the Jin family, but also injured Mo Rongmo's apprentice, which angered the two Ming Emperors at once, and what made Zhou Bo feel guilty the most was that this black cauldron actually let Tongqingmen carry it for him, how could Zhou Bo turn a blind eye to this?
"Senior Ming, what should I do now?" Zhou Bo was very anxious in his heart, he didn't want to suffer this catastrophe with Qingmen because of himself, but at this time, he changed his words and asked, "Didn't you say that Guo Guzi's cultivation has been restored?"
Zhou Bo didn't understand how it could be pulled on Guo Lao at once, so he replied uncertainly: "It seems to be ...... Isn't it?"
Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Hehe...... That's fine, as long as Guo Guzi is here, Tongqingmen will be fine today. ”
Hearing this, Zhou Bo was shocked, he didn't know where his self-confidence came from, and now although the fire poison in Guo Lao's body has almost been eliminated, but he is also a broken body cultivator, how can he fight against two Ming Emperors alone?
And at this moment, Zhou Bo heard Jin Xiao's majestic voice in front of him: "Mei Lan, are you sure that someone from Tongqingmen killed my Jin Guan?"
Mei Lan hurriedly said: "Uncle Jin, I dare to guarantee that incident must have been done by the thieves of Tongqingmen, since Jin Ye was killed and my senior brother was seriously injured, I went to Tongqingmen three times and twice to ask for the thief, but they were all protected by Tongqingmen's people, and once they threatened me in person, saying that if they dared to come to Tongqingmen again, they would not spare me." ”
