Zhongnan Mountain, in the valley, although the New Year has just passed, the north is still a land of ice and snow, but the valley is still warm, there are hot springs under the valley, this is a rare paradise.

"Little junior brother, why are you here?"

"It's almost over outside, nothing is coming"

"Solved, you've got those people done?"

"It's solved, but it's not me, it's Director Lin"

"Your Director Lin is very bold and powerful."

Li Yao replied with a smile, those people are not simple, he knows the details, and he has been ingrained in strength for many years, but he didn't expect to be uprooted by Lin Bai.

"Iron-blooded character, amazing, by the way, Senior Brother Zhou Fan, when will alchemy start, I'm in a hurry to observe and observe, Senior Brother, I have a senior uncle outside, and he can also do alchemy, and I also went to learn two hands."

"Haha, it's different, how can Senior Brother Zhou Fan's methods be the same as those outside, Senior Brother has already retreated, it will start in half a month at most, and alchemy takes seven hundred and forty-nine days, it's still early."

"It's going to take so long, okay, then I'll practice here for a while, and when the time comes, if someone who can't open his eyes comes to find trouble, remember to call me and let me send them away, I have to find someone to learn from."

"Yes, just find a place to retreat."

"Well, I still want to find a few volumes of cultivation methods, in terms of thunder methods, what I learned before are all abbreviated versions, and the power is insufficient."

"Go to the library and find it yourself"

"Good"

I nodded, and then went to the library to find a few volumes of cheats and another place to retreat.

Lei Fa is authentic in Longhu Mountain, but not only Longhu Mountain, but they are more powerful, for thousands of years, Longhu Mountain Lei Fa has spread a lot, Doutian Palace Dao Heng gave me is the Lei Fa from Longhu Mountain, but it is not complete, some core places are omitted.

There are more powerful thunder methods here in the valley, and I don't know where they found them, anyway, they are very powerful, I have seen a little bit before, but now I am carefully observing and cultivating.

This retreat is a month's time, and when I go out again, Zhou Fan has already started alchemy, in an independent Dan room, using charcoal, charcoal of dozens of different woods, and a large copper furnace, I don't know how to make alchemy, and I don't let people approach, but you can observe it outside the door.

Every time the alchemy is made, it is the most dangerous time in the valley, because there will be many enemies visiting, especially on the day of Dancheng, it is even more dangerous.

These days, Li Yao, Hong Tong, and Little Senior Brother are all nervous patrols, and the entire valley has been blocked with the Qimen Dunjia Great Array, but they still have to be careful, for fear that someone will break in.

"It stands to reason that this year should be the calmest, last year we defeated the white bone spirit and the clown ghost, the old ghost Lin was also disabled, the old witch was shocked, and those people outside were also cleaned up by the little junior brother, but we still have to be careful, it's not a big mistake"

"Senior brother, there is another one in the valley, otherwise I will send him on the road."

"He, don't worry"

"Is it a big demon, or is it a disaster?"

"This, we promised before, we have to raise him slowly"

"Then he might as well live or die, or else, I'll go see him, and if he begs me to kill him, then I'll do it"

"Okay, you go and see, if he really can't stand it, then take another look, anyway, if something happens, the first one to kill him, so that he has no hope of getting a ghost"

"Good"

I nodded, and then went to see Xie Changming again, Xie Changming was three points weaker than the last time I came, and even his figure was a little transparent, even if I didn't kill him, he didn't have much time.

"Liu Jinyang, it's you, you're here to send me on my way?"

"Yes"

"Sure enough, you humans are a bunch of ruthless and unrighteous people"

"You don't want to die yet?"

"Who would want to die, you?"

"It is cruel to you to continue to torture you like this, and I have come to liberate you"

"Hehe, I'm afraid it's not like this, the entire valley has been sealed with a formation, you are going to refine the pill, you are afraid that I will destroy your good deeds"

"You're smart, but it's a pity that smart people die fast"

"Then I'll talk about a death thing, I know what you want to do"

"Oh, tell me about it?"

"A few months ago, you came to me, your eyes were full of confusion and unease, and now, you are indifferent, but this is just to cover up your uneasiness, you have decided on something, but this matter is not a little sure of success, and this matter has a great impact, you don't know if you are doing this right, but you still decided to do it, right"

"Go ahead and see what flowers you can name"

"Through the comparison of the events before and after, I can be sure that what you are going to do has something to do with your elixir, and you definitely have bad intentions"

"Answer correctly, you can die"

"That's it?"

"There's something hard to admit, but you're guessing wrong, because I said it a long time ago, I'm still young, I don't need these pills"

"Cut, you're covering up"

"You probably have a month left, a month later, I will take your life, if you have any last words or something, you can think about it in this month, and tell me when the time comes, if possible, I will help you"

I said a word, then turned around and left, outside, Li Yao stood in the distance, smiled at me, I smiled back, and then entered my room.

The Frost Sword is still the Frost Sword, I took a clean cotton cloth, carefully wiped it, and maintained the Frost Sword, this kind of maintenance, as long as I have time, has never fallen.

As the days passed, the temperature of the Danfang became higher and higher, not at all like the temperature at which charcoal could burn, and with the high temperatures, there was also a medicinal fragrance, which smelled very good, as if it could make people intoxicated.

Most of the birds in the valley were culled, and the rest were locked up, because the smell of the medicine attracted the idea of the birds, and they kept coming to the dan.

None of the enemies in previous years appeared, and those big demons were probably dead, they were not opponents in the first place, plus they had been defeated several main forces before, and the rest of them did not dare to come to death.

As for the people who were packed up by Lin Bai, they never came to make trouble, they would only come with treasures after the pill was refined, hoping to exchange it for a pill, only this time they stretched out their hands slightly, but as soon as they stretched out their hands, they were interrupted.

Seven seven forty-nine days of alchemy, in the blink of an eye, forty-eight days have passed, and on the last day, I came to Xie Changming again.

"How about it, a month is up, have you thought about your last words?"

"Figured it out"

"Say"

"I was originally just a little snake in Nanshan, one year, I hibernated in a cave, I don't know what I ate by mistake, I actually opened my spiritual wisdom, and then I went to that Taoist temple, I eavesdropped on their chanting and preaching in the main hall, I was peeking at their practice, and I also secretly ate their eggs.

I witnessed the rise and fall of the Taoist temple, the most glorious time, the villagers of ten miles and eight towns all came to the Taoist temple to incense, the most dilapidated time, there was only one Taoist priest in the Taoist temple, the roof was broken and no one repaired, the statues in the Taoist temple were about to collapse, and the stinky Taoist priest almost starved to death.

By the way, that stinky Taoist priest is called Xie Changming, when he still has one breath left, he found me, he told me that I want to help him guard this Taoist temple and use his body to guard it, so he gave me his last breath, I agreed, I swallowed his soul while he still had one breath, and occupied his body.

I kept the Taoist temple for ten years, ten years, I couldn't make the Taoist temple prosperous, and then, I stopped keeping, I started to travel the world, I wanted to become an immortal, I wanted to live forever, I went to see the immortals who had been worshiped by the stinky Taoist priests for many years.

But I failed, today you want me to say my last words, then my last words are, I'm sorry Xie Changming, that stinky Taoist priest, because I didn't do what I promised him, Liu Jinyang, can you do me a favor, if you can, help me to cultivate that Taoist temple, and find someone to practice there."

"I'll help you if I have a chance, if I don't have a chance, then I'm sorry"

"Okay, thank you"

"Is it all over?"

"And one last word"

"Say"

"The last sentence is, I, Xie Changming, have never met an opponent in my life, even if I have been repeatedly destroyed by you, you are not my opponent, so no one can kill me, and you can't, only I can, haha···"

Xie Changming laughed loudly, and then the whole soul began to collapse, he committed suicide, cut himself off, collapsed the soul, and disappeared, there was no more Xie Changming in this world.

I sighed and walked out of the room, where Li Yao was waiting for me at the door.

"He's dead?"

"It's long gone, it's over now"

"Tomorrow is the day of Dancheng, go to bed early tonight, if something happens, it has to be tomorrow, and you have the energy to deal with it"

"I know, I want to go see Senior Brother Zhou Fan, he seems to be very tired"

"Every alchemy is a catastrophe for Senior Brother Zhou Fan, you have to rest for two or three months afterwards, it's normal to be tired, I will take over this class in a few years, and it will be you in the future."

"I understand, senior brother rests early, I'll come when I go"

"Good"

Li Yao nodded, and I walked to the door of the Danfang, where Zhou Fan was sitting a few meters away from me, his whole person was extremely haggard, and his face had aged a lot.

"Little junior brother, you're here"

"Yes, Senior Brother, I'm coming to see you"

"I'm fine, you rest early"

"Well, I still have a few words I want to say to my senior brother, is that okay?"

"Yes, you can say it"

"Senior brother, you have been refining the pill for so many years, are you tired?"

"Tired"

"Do you want to rest?"

"It's not time yet"

"No, the time has come, senior brother, can you go and rest?"

"Little junior brother, what do you want to do?"

"Senior brother, I want to end all this, you are on the wrong path"

"No"

Zhou Fan screamed, his expression became frightened, and then I had already split the forbidden formation with a sword and came to the copper furnace.
