Chapter Seventy-Seven: Lifting the Soul Eater Mark (12345.)
Ten more delivered, never broken his word
Back at the Xiao Mansion, the two studied the ghost-faced jade pendant day and night for several days, but still had no gains.
"Maybe only Xiao Shao, a guy with bad luck, can figure it out." Xiao Zhan said helplessly, his eyes looking at Xiao Yan's alchemy pharmacy, which was still closed.
And Nan Erming stood by the window, looking at the southwest direction, with a hint of melancholy, and his figure looked a little lonely.
With nothing to do, Xiao Zhan and Nan Erming also felt bored, and then they also followed the storm and threw themselves into cultivation.
In the entire Xiao Mansion, only Xiao Yao walked the birds and tasted tea every day, and the days seemed to be very comfortable, but in fact, he was quite anxious in his heart, because Zhen Ni, the medicinal material of the Soul Eater Pill, had already been sent to Xiao Yan and handed it over, and he was waiting for Xiao Yan's Soul Eater Pill.
Time flies quickly, spring goes to the winter solstice in a blink of an eye, Xiao Mansion is as calm as ever, only the Danlei that explodes in the sky from time to time will make people's hearts skip a beat, but the more times, everyone will be numb.
On this day, the door of Xiao Yan's refining pharmacy opened, and Xiao Yan stepped out.
Long Yi devoured a lot of Five-Rank Dan Thunder this time, and he had to absorb it quickly, so he went directly into the Meridian Spirit Void Tower. If he devours Dan Lei like this, as long as he is given a certain amount of time to absorb it, he may not be able to break through to the middle stage of the four-star Dou Emperor soon! This speed is terrifying!
Walking into the lobby and half-leaning on the Taishi chair, Xiao Yan stretched his waist a lot, and the repeated refining of medicine made him really tired.
Before Xiao Yan could take a few sips of the fragrant tea sent by the servants, the news of his exit immediately spread throughout the Xiao Mansion, except for Ziying and Lang Tian, who had just broken through and had not yet had time to arrive, almost all of them rushed over, breaking the tranquility of the Xiao Mansion.
The first to arrive was Xiao Yao, and the Soul Devouring Pill was related to whether his strength could be restored, so he was naturally the most anxious.
After a while, the lobby of Xiao Mansion was full of people, and they exchanged pleasantries after sitting down, but their eyes fell on Xiao Yan, wanting to see if the Soul Devouring Pill was really effective against the Soul Devouring Mark.
"Brother, how's the harvest?" Qing Haoran asked, it was about the antidote to the forbidden martial arts of the demon clan, and of course Qing Haoran was very concerned.
"Living up to the expectations of the ancestors and the eldest brother, the Soul Devouring Pill has been successfully refined, and there are still twenty Purple Heart Pills." Everyone was already familiar with the Purple Heart Pill, and Xiao Yan handed it directly to Le Shaolong.
Then he flipped his hand, and a black pill appeared, the pill was dark, without any luster, it seemed very ordinary, and it was inconspicuous compared to other pills.
"This is the Soul Eater Pill?"
A trace of doubt flashed in the eyes of Xiao Yao and Qing Haoran. They didn't wonder if this was the Soul Eater Pill, but they doubted whether this pill was really effective against the Soul Eater Mark, because this pill was too ordinary, and it didn't look like a four-grade pill in ordinary times, such an ordinary pill could really lift the so-called insoluble Soul Eater Mark?
Seeing Xiao Yao's excitement and flushed face from the beginning to the slight loss now, Xiao Yan scratched his head uneasily and said, "There are some things that can't just be seen on the surface. When this Dan was first successfully refined, I was also startled, because it looked too ordinary, but under my careful sense, this Dan Guanghua was restrained, and it contained an indescribable mysterious liliang, which might be effective. ”
Chapter Seventy-Seven: Lifting the Soul Eater Mark (2)
"But I'll know if I try it, and I'm not sure." Xiao Yan added.
Xiao Yan's words injected a shot in the arm for Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao's breathing became rapid again, he stared at the Soul Eater Pill in Xiao Yan's hand, his sliding throat couldn't help but swallow several mouthfuls of saliva, and his cloudy old eyes glowed with youthful brilliance because of excitement, excitement, nervousness, and impatience.
Qing Haoran showed a dignified calmness. In fact, he was not excited, nor was he not nervous, he also wanted to know if this Soul Devouring Pill had any effect on the Soul Devouring Mark, but as a Demon Emperor, he didn't show it like Xiao Yao.
During the period of Xiao Yan's retreat and alchemy, Qing Haoran mobilized a large number of people to investigate the Soul Devouring Mark, but Zuihou couldn't track it down, because all the clues faintly pointed to the Soul Demon Clan.
The Soul Demon Clan and the Blood Demon Clan have always been at odds, and in the past few years, it has been because the identity of the Qing Haoran Demon Emperor is openly opposed to the Blood Demon Clan, forming a lot of opposition among the Demon Clan, and in the absence of definite evidence, it is difficult to continue the investigation, and the clues are interrupted.
Although the Soul Demon Clan did not dare to brave the condemnation of the world and openly cultivate the Soul Devouring Dafa, it was even more difficult to prevent by cultivating secretly. Therefore, whether the Soul Eater Pill is effective against the Soul Eater Mark, Qing Haoran's expectations are not weaker than Xiao Yao's.
"Ancestor, why don't you take the Soul Eater Pill now? We're all here, so let's see what's going on, okay? Xiao Yan looked at Xiao Yao's fiery eyes, and then looked at Qing Haoran's solemn face, as if he understood Qing Haoran's concern.
"Okay, I'll take it!" Hearing Xiao Yan say this, Xiao Yao reached out and took the pill handed over by Xiao Yan and stuffed it into his mouth.
Everyone held their breath.
"Little liar, I'm a little nervous." Qing Mu'er spoke softly and stood next to Xiao Yan.
"What are you nervous about?" Xiao Yan asked.
"My brother is very worried about the Soul Eater Mark during this time, if the Soul Eater Pill can succeed, my brother will be relieved a lot." Qing Mu'er said softly.
Xiao Yan turned around when he heard this, and his heart moved. It seems that in addition to being naughty, Qing Mu'er is actually very considerate.
At this time, Xiao Yao had already reacted and attracted everyone's attention.
Xiao Yao's fists were clenched, and the faint white fighting qi gradually covered his body, and the skin covered by the fighting qi actually faintly revealed black veins, like a large net spread out, covering the entire body, greedily absorbing the fighting qi on the surface of the body, and in a blink of an eye, the fighting qi that Xiao Yao had just overflowed on the surface of the body was absorbed, and the black of the veins was a little deeper.
Everyone could see that the black vein was transformed by the Soul Devouring Mark, and it was able to continuously grow itself by absorbing Dou Qi and transforming it into its origin.
What a vicious exercise! Everyone gasped.
The fighting spirit disappeared, Xiao Yao's face showed an extremely painful color, and the green muscles crawled all over his face, secretly revealing a trace of black, looking hideous and terrifying.
The Soul Devouring Mark had actually penetrated into Xiao Yao's meridians! The viciousness of this Soul Eater Mark was far beyond his imagination.
Xiao Yan was shocked in his heart, his face suddenly became solemn, and he was faintly worried about the efficacy of the Soul Devouring Pill.
Just when Xiao Yao's face was getting more and more ugly and the black veins were getting denser and denser, suddenly, a mysterious liliang emanated from Xiao Yao's body, and everywhere Liliang went, Xiao Yao's skin turned completely black!
"What's going on? Could it be that the Soul Eater Pill is not an antidote, but an exacerbation of the onset of the Soul Eater Mark? Jenny stood up, her eyes filled with anxiety and unease.
Chapter Seventy-Seven Lifting the Soul Devouring Mark (3) Xiao Yan's body stiffened suddenly, his nails were tightly clenched and embedded in his palms, and his fighting spirit burst out at once, and he took two steps forward, but he stayed in place and didn't know what to do.
At this time, Xiao Yan was also a little blindsided-"How can such a situation occur?" What can I do? ”
However, no one could give an answer, there had never been a record of the Soul Devouring Pill on the Doudi Continent, and everyone was so anxious that they spun around in place, shouting loudly for Xiao Yao. But Xiao Yao seemed to fall into a deep sleep and did not react.
"I can't care so much, I will send fighting energy to the ancestors to temporarily slow down the spread of black." Xiao Yan was in a hurry, and planned to use his fighting spirit to see if he could force out the medicinal power of the Soul Devouring Pill.
"Xiao Shao, wait first, don't be reckless." Le Shaolong was worried that the Soul Devouring Mark would harm Xiao Yan, so he hurriedly spoke out to stop it, "If the Soul Devouring Pill and the Soul Devouring Mark are in the same vein, it is impossible to force it." But if you take a closer look, do you notice that the black color of this Soul Eater Pill is a little different from the black color of the Soul Eater Mark? It doesn't seem to be from the same origin. ”
Le Shaolong's observation was always very careful, and he said the anomalies he found in time.
Everyone heard Le Shaolong's prompt and looked carefully, and sure enough, the black of the Soul Eater Mark was slightly gray and mixed with a little blood, while the black of the Soul Eater Pill was very pure, the difference between the two was like the difference between ink and flawless night, the latter was like the darkness before dawn, making people feel very down-to-earth and without a trace of evil.
Xiao Yan sat back on the chair, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
"Little liar, look, there's a reaction." Qing Mu'er's delicate body trembled slightly, and she shouted urgently.
I saw where the pure black passed, the variegated black veins seemed to have encountered the ice that had not melted for thousands of years, and at the same time made a "snort" sound while quickly avoiding it, which seemed to be very fearful.
"It works! It really works! Xiao Yan suddenly became excited.
"Come on, old man, you will definitely get better!" Qing Mu'er next to her was happy when she saw Xiao Yan, and she was overjoyed, and she cheered for Xiao Yao.
After a while, pure black quickly covered Xiao Yao's whole body, and from a distance, Xiao Yao looked like an ebony carved statue.
When the pure black covered Xiao Yao's body, the Soul Devouring Mark had no place to hide, and countless black veins turned into traces of black qi and floated in the air.
Xiao Yan's blue-gray heavenly fire immediately rose up, enveloping all the black qi and burning it into dust.
With the loss of a large amount of black qi, Xiao Yao's skin gradually returned to its original color, and the declining aura began to slowly become stronger, and soon passed the early stage of the four-star period, and continued to rise.
"The ancestors are finally saved! If the ancestor falls on the elixir refined by my Xiao Yan, then I will become a sinner of the Xiao clan through the ages. Xiao Yan's fiery eyes stared at Xiao Yao, who was recovering, and he was completely relieved.
Jenny patted her chest, and her pink tongue gently licked her red lips, adding a touch of charm.
Chapter Seventy-Seven: Lifting the Soul Devouring Mark (4) "Great, with the help of this divine pill, even if the Soul Devouring Dafa spreads on the Doudi Continent, it won't be a problem." Qing Haoran witnessed all this with his own eyes, and he was moved, and a trace of worry in his eyes completely dissipated, and he no longer needed to worry about this vicious soul-devouring Dafa setting off a bloody storm on the Doudi Continent.
"However, according to the teachings of the ancestors, those who practice this skill must be killed and will not be merciful." Qing Haoran suppressed the anger in his heart and said in a deep voice firmly.
"Big brother, count me in, such a vicious exercise must not exist in the world!" Xiao Yan stood up, took out another Soul Devouring Pill, and handed it to Qing Haoran, "Take this big brother to the War Demon Clan." ”
"Hmm." Qing Haoran patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder and thanked Xiao Yan.
With a long breath, Xiao Yao slowly opened his eyes.
"I feel that the feeling of weakness I used to have is gone, and the fighting spirit that has passed is coming back little by little, this feeling is really good!" Xiao Yao's body trembled violently, his excitement was irrepressibly excited, and he almost wanted to shout! Thousands of years of repression are too heavy.
Seeing that the old man's cloudy eyes were glowing again, and there was still a faint mist on them, Le Shaolong, Xiao Zhan, and Nan Erming glanced at each other, and at the same time took a step forward and hugged their fists to congratulate: "Congratulations to the patriarch for getting rid of the sea of suffering and revitalizing the majesty of the year." ”
"I wonder how Patriarch Xiao feels now? Have you regained your former strength? Jenny shook her head and asked softly.
"Just try it." Xiao Yan pointed to a set of desks placed at the door and said.
The case is made of iron force steel wood, this kind of wood is born in the deep mountains in the south of the Doudi Continent, the quantity is scarce, its color is as dark as iron, as hard as steel, it is extremely difficult to damage, and it is generally used to make the scabbard of high-level weapons, which is very precious.
"This?" Xiao Yao hesitated, this case seemed to be worth a lot.
"Ancestor, just try it! Compared with the recovery of the ancestors, not to mention a few cases, even if the entire Xiao Mansion is taken? Xiao Yan encouraged Xiao Yao and made Xiao Yao's heart warm.
Without saying any more superfluous words, Xiao Yao took a deep breath, pressed his palm in the void, and his fighting spirit erupted into suffocating fluctuations, and the sawdust flew under Xiao Yao's blow, and then turned into dust, fluttering and covering the entire doorway.
At this moment, there was a rapid sound of breaking through the air outside the door, and then a piercing scream pulled everyone's eyes to the door.
Langtian, who had just arrived, was covered from head to toe with a thick layer of wood ash, and his mouth was wide open, and it was stuffed with wood chips.
Langtian was stunned, blinded, he didn't react to what happened at all, the whole person was like a mummy that had been sealed in the warehouse for thousands of years.
And the purple shadow behind Langtian relied on the advantage of his body technique, and forcibly pulled his body back, and when he waved his hands, the purple light was permeated, isolating all the sawdust, and he was caressing his chest again and again.
"Oh, I'm really embarrassed, my hands are itchy for a while, I'm really sorry." Xiao Yao was the first to react, with a wave of his big sleeves, the soft breeze rose, and swept away the wood ash on Langtian's body.
"Ahem, ahem." Lang Tian hurriedly brushed off the wood ash on his body, spit out the sawdust in his mouth, and raised his head, still a little inexplicable, "Xiao Shao, there was an earthquake?" ”
When the purple shadow behind him heard this, he smiled and shook his willow waist slightly, and the charm was endless, and everyone covered their mouths and couldn't help laughing.
Chapter Seventy-Seven Lifting the Soul Devouring Mark (5) "Oh, that's the case, the ancestor has recovered his strength, so I asked the ancestor to practice on the spot, but I didn't expect it" Xiao Yan couldn't help laughing and explained to Langtian.
"Does the Soul Eater Pill really work?" Lang Tian and Ziying asked a very idiotic question in unison, Xiao Yao was standing there, did he still need to ask about the rising strength? This time, even Xiao Yan couldn't help but roll his eyes, and only nodded heavily after a while.
"Congratulations." The two hurriedly crossed the threshold and congratulated Xiao Yao.
"Xiexie, Xiexie, thanks to Xiao Yan." Xiao Yao was so happy that he was even fighting with his teeth, but when he saw the sawdust left between Langtian's collar, his expression suddenly froze, "What happened just now, I'm sorry." ”
"Compared with the recovery of the patriarch, let alone some sawdust, what if you bury yourself with a thousand catties of sawdust?" Langtian arched his hand again and again.
"Why does this sentence feel so familiar?" Xiao Zhan thought hard, and suddenly slapped his forehead, "Damn, isn't this the copycat version of Xiao Shao just now?" ”
"It's still how the upper beam is tilted, and how the lower beam is crooked." Storm couldn't help but mutter.
As soon as the storm said this, the audience was silent, and then there was a commotion
.
"Ancestor, have you recovered all your strength?" Xiao Yan took a sip of tea and asked with concern.
"It's almost, although it hasn't recovered to the peak of four stars, but I'm confident that if I give me another month, I can return to the peak of the year." Xiao Yao said confidently.
"That's great! After the ancestor's strength was restored, he broke through to the five-star in one fell swoop, and the first five-star Dou Emperor of my Xiao clan in tens of thousands of years was about to be born. Xiao Yan was very excited, and his tone was full of happiness, "When the ancestor breaks through to the five-star Dou Emperor, we will return to the clan with the ancestor." ”
"Good, good, great." Xiao Yao was so happy that his white beard floated up, as if the rise of the Xiao clan was within reach, and the wrinkles on his face stretched out.
"Today is a happy event, Purple Shadow and Langtian have also broken through." Xiao Yan then set his eyes on Ziying and Langtian, "Tell you, what kind of strength is it now?" ”
Everyone looked at the two of them, feeling the surging aura on their bodies, and their eyes jumped with joy.
"I am now in the late five-star stage, and Langtian is in the middle of the four-star period." Purple Shadow reported.
"Not bad, very good." Xiao Yan said three times in a row, and he was in a good mood, "Ziying, do you still have a five-star demon core?" ”
As soon as Ziying heard Xiao Yan ask this, a look of regret suddenly appeared on his face, and he said: "When you reach the five-star, it is really difficult to advance, just by upgrading to one level, you have already exhausted the five-star demon core given by Xiao Shao. ”
Ziying's answer was not beyond Xiao Yan's expectations, the promotion of more than five stars, the first order is more difficult than the first order, otherwise the Doudi Continent would have been flying all over the sky with high-level Dou Emperors.
Xiao Yan pondered for a moment, and his eyes turned to Zhen Ni.
Zhen Ni immediately became a little embarrassed, "The four-star magic core has been purchased a lot, which is enough for Xiao Shao and Lang Tian to be promoted to the peak of the four-star, but the five-star magic core and the five-star magic core are not many in the market, and it is difficult to receive them, and so far they have only received about a hundred." She paused and continued, "But Xiao Shao, don't worry, I have ordered the entire business alliance to make every effort to buy it, and it will be collected one after another." ”
