Deep in the mountains, the branches and leaves rustle in the wind.

There was a cave sealed with wooden flails, and there were many small snakes with red eyes stationed at the door.

In the cave, you can see many people, dressed in different clothes, men, women and children, without exception, all of them are sallow, hungry and thin, without energy, and they have been hungry for a long time.

Raising the human race is a habit that demons have always maintained.

Just like humans raise chickens, ducks and fish, they need a constant supply of food.

I saw a thin and petite figure curled up in the corner of the cave.

The face is dirty and unkempt.

It was getting late, the air in the mountains was leaking, and there was only a gray rag on her body, which was weakly covered, and her body shivered in the cold wind.

It's not just her, most of the people around her are in this state.

Quite a few people's faces were already numb.

"Whew!"

There was a sound of rubble splattering.

In the dark, they seemed to see a flash of light, and then all the small snakes left in front of the wooden flail were cut into two pieces.

"Boom!"

Even the tall and sturdy wooden flail collapsed with a bang.

The biting evening breeze poured into the entrance of the cave, and a man stood at the entrance.

The man's tall figure stood in the wind, a white robe hunting, indescribably super elegant, and a pair of eyes like stars, sweeping towards everyone.

The person who came was Zhao Huai.

Since condensing the golden pill, Zhao Huai has exuded an invisible aura, with a touch of majesty and coldness, in the eyes of mortals, he is like a master outside the world.

So in the eyes of these mortals, Zhao Huai is a savior-like existence.

"It's okay, come with me, the demon has been killed by me."

Zhao Huai looked at the tragedy in front of him and said with a heavy heart.

In his eyes, the lives and smoke on the faces of these people were gray and lifeless, and they were obviously destroyed.

In this current world, the Demon Gate and the Immortal Gate are facing each other, and the attention of the sect will inevitably be all on the demons, causing some of the demons to slip through the net and attack ordinary people.

Either way, mortals are always victims.

Even if Zhao Huai said this, not many people moved.

Most of them were hungry and had no strength, and they leaned weakly against the stone wall.

"Husband, I'll come."

Yu Qinghan stood up from her side, she used her mana, and the golden pill energy flipped in her body, and a trace of mana crossed into the bodies of everyone in front of her.

Give them a little strength to stand up.

The crowd slowly stood up and walked outside.

Zhao Huai nodded, and suddenly saw a little girl in the corner, sitting helplessly, waiting for the adults to leave, and finally slowly stood up.

Unlike everyone else, she came to Zhao Huai, raised her little head, and under the dirty rags, there was actually a pair of eyes as clear as snow, and she asked directly:

"Are you a monk?"

His voice is hoarse and very young.

At the moment when his eyes met, even Zhao Huai was stunned.

He saw a lot of things in the eyes of the other party, in addition to the strong desire for life, there was also an extraordinary perseverance.

The eyes are the windows to the soul.

Different people have different things in their eyes.

Zhao Huai used the Qi Hope Technique to check the other party's face.

As a result, wisps of bright yellow smoke emerged.

Among the many colors, the only one he didn't figure out was yellow.

Gray and white represent vitality, green represents health, gold represents luck, black represents bad luck, red represents death, and purple represents identity.

What does this yellow represent?

"Yes, I'm a monk, do you have any questions?"

Zhao Huai leaned down, a smile on his face, and said softly.

"I want to be a monk too."

The little girl's eyes were extremely serious.

Zhao Huai was not surprised to get this answer, he brushed the girl's hair aside without disgust, and said with a smile:

"Why do you want to be a monk?"

Without hesitation, the girl said, "I don't want to be bullied anymore." ”

Zhao Huai's eyes revealed surprise.

He thought that the other party would say that he would avenge his parents, or envy that he could save people, but he didn't expect such a simple answer.

He grabbed the girl's hand and used his mana to check the other's qualifications.

I found that the root bone was not bad, not as exaggerated as the Heavenly Spirit Root, but it was also much better than ordinary people, and it was a single Spirit Root.

The only strange thing was that he found the child's body structure to be amazing.

Normal people's spiritual roots and bone phases are the same mold, excellent or bad, and will not fall out of the frame, but this girl is obviously outside the frame, and primaly, the number of bones is more than that of normal people.

So this is the meaning of the expression of yellow smoke, special physique?

Zhao Huai thought uncertainly, and smiled lightly at the girl:

"If you want to be a monk, come with me."

After Zhao Huai and Yu Qinghan transferred the people rescued from Shepanshan to a nearby township, they left.

In the end, only a little girl followed the two of them, originally following the caravan, but her parents were eaten by monsters, and she also became an orphan.

Yu Qinghan learned of the little girl's situation, his eyes could not hide his sympathy, and he said to Zhao Huai:

"You're going to teach her how to practice?"

"She has good qualifications and can teach."

"It's really a good seedling for martial arts practice." Yu Qinghan also nodded.

At this time, Zhao Huai asked curiously:

"Madam, you didn't suspect me?"

Yu Qinghan rolled his eyes and said, "What do you suspect, it's just a child, I'm not the kind of woman who is sensitive to all things." ”

"By the way, don't you still want to go to Wangxian Sect? Still going? ”

"Well, I'm going, I want to see the old people."

Yu Qinghan turned around and pulled the little girl, and said, "You go, I'll take her back to Jinzhou Mansion, and if you come to me again, I won't go to Heifeng Mountain." ”

"Okay."

Zhao Huai nodded in agreement.

Then, he harnessed the natal flying sword and galloped in the direction of Wangxian Sect.

The vicinity of Black Wind Mountain is really close to Wangxian Sect, and Zhao Huai's speed is very fast, and he arrived at once.

Wangxian Sect is located on a mountain, the incense is not bad, and there are people who make incense at night.

Zhao Huai came to the gate of the mountain, and there was a disciple of the Wangxian Sect stationed there.

"I want to find it, Lu Wanqiu."

He directly stated the other party's name.

"Are you looking for Senior Sister Lu?"

The stationed disciple gave the man a strange look, as if he was thinking about the connection between the two.

"I'm a good friend of Miss Lu."

Zhao Huai added another sentence.

"I'm sorry, Senior Sister Lu has been in retreat since last year, you want to find her, I don't know when."

"Retreat?"

Zhao Huai repeated in surprise.

As far as he knew, monastic retreats were divided into minor retreats, major retreats, and finally retreats.

A small retreat is just a few years, while a major retreat often costs a fifth of a monk's life.

A hundred years takes twenty years, and a thousand years takes two hundred years.

However, this retreat can be stopped, and in case of special circumstances, it can be left at any time.

But the retreat is different, it is the most special one, and it is often set up by monks to achieve a certain purpose.

It can't be stopped, it can't be interrupted, and it can't get out if it doesn't achieve its goal, which is related to the heart and basis of the Dao, and is linked to the Dao of Heaven, which is a force majeure factor.

The time is unlimited, it may be a hundred years, it may be a thousand years, it may come out in two or three years, or it may not come out for a lifetime.

Everything depends on whether the purpose of the monk is difficult or not.

Why did Lu Wanqiu close the retreat?

The other party is one of the few friends of the other party in this world, just like Yan Jing.

I haven't seen him since I parted.

However, this situation is perfectly normal in the world of monks.

There was an incident recorded in ancient books.

There is a young disciple of the sect, by chance, he entered a secret realm, and in the process of retreat, his cultivation soared, and his cultivation was fascinated.

When he came out, he found that all his relatives and friends were dead.

Even the sect has declined and died, only to find out that thousands of years have passed outside.

And he is the same as back then, young forever.

Zhao Huai retracted his thoughts and smiled at the stationed disciples: "I know, thank you." ”

After thanking him, Zhao Huai turned around and left Wangxian Sect.

Since Lu Wanqiu is in retreat, there is no need for her to stay for a long time.

He stepped on the flying sword and galloped in the direction of the Black Wind Mountain.

Back in the Batu Caves, Zhao Huai happened to see such a scene.

A brown-haired boar was lying motionless in a pool of blood, but its heaving chest indicated that it was still breathing.

"How did you get in?"

Zhao Huai spoke up.

The brown-haired boar was suddenly startled, stood up, and hurriedly jumped out of the pool of blood.

Seeing that it was Zhao Huai's figure, he looked very excited, and at the same time scared: "I accidentally fell into this pool." ”

"Besides, didn't the adults tell me to come to the cave in the middle of the night?"

When Zhao Huai heard the answer, he smiled secretly in his heart.

Of course, he knew why the other party's fell into the pool.

It's just that I didn't expect this dwarf brown-haired wild boar to have such an understanding, and it really came.

Originally, he didn't have much hope.

"Can you come in without the permission of the Pig King?"

Zhao Huai continued to say with a straight face.

The brown-haired boar scratched his head weakly and said, "My lord, I stumbled upon other entrances that could also go into the cave, so I didn't dare to tell the king." ”

Zhao Huai was stunned when he heard this.

This wild boar's luck is really good.

That's all it takes.

Such a demon is not developed, so what kind of demon can be developed?

"That's it, I won't hold you accountable, since you can come here, it means that it is your chance."

Zhao Huai said with a smile.

Before, he didn't know what chance was, but now it seems that not everyone can encounter chance.

"So, my lord, what will you teach me?" The brown-haired boar said cautiously.

"What do you want to learn?"

Zhao Huai asked with a smile.

The brown-haired wild boar had a simple face and said very honestly: "You can do anything, I will learn whatever Master Pig Gangguan teaches." ”

"You can teach."

Hearing this, Zhao Huai couldn't help but sigh.

After that, he took out a green firefly demon pill from the Xuan Ring.

"It's."

"This is the demon pill of the big demon, no matter what you teach, it is not as practical as a demon pill, what you want to learn, whether it is demon power or the method, it is all in this demon pill."

Zhao Huai explained with a chuckle.

"Can you shapeshift?"

The brown-haired boar asked cautiously.

Zhao Huai shook his head: "After digesting this demon pill, let alone transforming into a shape, even if you step into the realm of the demon king, it is very possible." ”

"Demon King!"

The brown-haired boar was shocked.

He didn't expect Lord Pig Gangguan to come up with such an important thing.

And also for yourself!

"How can I accept such an important thing!"

The brown-haired boar immediately waved his hand.

"If the Pig King knows, he will definitely beat me, and other little demons will probably take a fancy to it, and I will definitely not be able to rob them."

Zhao Huai couldn't help but laugh and said, "When you become stronger, will anyone dare to rob you of your things?" ”

The brown-haired boar was suddenly stunned, touched his head, and thought.

I think so.

"Can I really take it?"

The brown-haired boar asked cautiously, confirming it again and again.

"Well, here you go."

Zhao Huai nodded and threw the demon pill directly to the other party, not distressed at all.

"It's useless for me to keep holding this thing."

The brown-haired wild boar took the demon pill, as if holding a fragile jade, and its small eyes looked carefully, and its mouth was wide open, and it was amazed.

How can there be such a beautiful thing.

"Swallow it."

Zhao Huai reminded.

The brown-haired boar nodded heavily, looked serious, and took the demon pill down.

The green glow stretched from his neck to his stomach, and it was clearly visible.

The brown-haired boar shook its head, its eyes blinking, and it didn't notice any change.

"Lord Pig Gangguana, how is this ball?"

Before he could finish speaking, a majestic demonic power soared into the sky and dissolved in his stomach.

"Poof!"

The brown-haired boar clutched its stomach in pain and rolled on the ground.

"My lord, my stomach is so swollen, I feel like my stomach is going to explode!"

Zhao Huai knew that this was a normal phenomenon.

This is the Spider Emperor's demon pill.

How can an ordinary demon bear it, it must be assisted by external forces to digest.

He no longer hesitated, stepped forward, sacrificed his mana, and poured it into the body of the brown-haired boar.

Help him balance the mighty demonic power in his body.

When those demonic powers met his mana, they melted away like fire met water.

"Sit cross-legged and run the week."

Zhao Huai reminded him while helping the brown-haired boar.

The brown-haired boar also moved quickly, endured the pain, and sat down.

The demonic power of the whole body is scurrying in the bones and blood vessels, and running Zhou Tian is a process of consumption.

In an instant, he felt that his Taoism was constantly improving!

The demonic power was extremely condensed, and it slowly stabilized.

As a result, the fur on his body began to fade, revealing his skin, becoming more like a human arm and body.

The body has also become much taller, and it has become the height of a normal person.

Time passed quickly.

The brown-haired wild boar slowly controlled the demon pill, and at the same time, without Zhao Huai's help, he could also operate the demon power on his own.

Zhao Huai wiped his sweat.

"In the future, you will be able to use this demon pill to cultivate, and the speed is more than several times that of ordinary monsters."

"Thank you, sir!!"

The brown-haired wild boar snorted a handful of tears, wept bitterly, and knelt in front of Zhao Huai to thank him.

"Why are you helping me like this?"

At the same time, the heart of the brown-haired wild boar is also very curious.

The adults gave it the demon pill like this, and it was too good.

Zhao Huai said lightly: "Everyone is selfish, and demons are no exception, I hope you accept this demon pill, make good use of it, and do what I instruct, can you do it?" ”

"Yes!"

The brown-haired boar nodded solemnly.

"My expectations for you are still very high, under my hands, there are many rules, I hope you can remember them, the most important of which is the nine precepts."

"First, no one of the Race, including monks, shall be harmed without my permission."

"The next eight are murderous intent, greed, obscenity, lying, drunkenness, extravagance, evil intent, and law."

"You don't have a name, then I'll give you a name, the nine precepts, corresponding to these nine articles."

The brown-haired boar listened very seriously, and after getting the name, he said with surprise on his face:

"I know my lord, I will be called Jiujie in the future."

Then, Zhao Huai hesitated for a moment and took out the sealed heart.

Re-placed in the pool of blood.

Moment.

The rich blood light shone on the heart, and the wisps of mist surrounded it, and with each beat, pure energy flowed out of the blood pool.

The pool of blood is back to its former state.

"Boom!"

An extremely strong aura emanated from the heart, causing the entire cavern to shake.

The brown-haired boar just took a breath of the red mist emanating from his heart, and his demonic power skyrocketed.

He was already almost transformed, just the details and his head, and he was not far from being completely transformed.

Now that he has been blessed by the energy of the blood pool, his physical body has become more condensed, and his eyes have brightened a lot.

"What's wrong! What's wrong! ”

The Pig King hurriedly ran out from the other side of the cave, as if he had just woken up.

Seeing the pool of blood that had recovered, he was also dumbfounded.

Zhao Huai walked in front of the pig king, pointed to the brown-haired wild boar and said:

"Cultivate him well, this son has the appearance of a demon king."

ps: It's coming to an end, and then we're ushering in a more magnificent world of cultivating immortals, the battle of the great world is really coming, and the pit dug is going to be filled.
