The old woman waved her hands again and again, pulling up the remnant of the Dao in front of her, and hundreds of complicated tricks were only played in a very short time, and then streams of pure milky white energy beams like mutton fat and white jade shot out from the middle point of the old woman's chest, and poured into the boiling iron pot continuously, making the already turquoise and crystal liquid even more verdant and flexible.

This process lasted for half an hour, and when the old woman made the last move, the red color in the stove faded away, and only a thin layer of verdant gelatinous object appeared in the iron pot, like jelly.

The old woman's body shook twice, and then she fell to the ground softly, panting heavily, her face instantly turned pale, without a trace of blood, her skin, which was originally thin and burnt, is now like a zombie, her whole body is cold and cold, like a piece of ice, Princess Xiangxiang has a cold and piercing feeling when she holds it in her arms.

After only two breaths, the old woman forcibly opened her eyes and said in an extremely weak voice: "Girl, quickly divide the contents of the pot into five parts, and put them in an ice crystal cold jade box, quickly, the medicinal effect of this thing will soon dissipate!" ”

Princess Xiangxiang burst into tears, but under the old woman's anxious eyes, she still used the fastest speed to pack the "jelly" in the pot, and then came to the old woman's side, hugged her upper body in her arms and cried: "Mother-in-law, why do you bother, that is your life essence, those essences can at least support your vitality for a hundred years." ”

The old woman did not speak, closed her eyes and rested for a long time, then opened her eyes again, Princess Xiangxiang was surprised to find that the rich aura that filled the house poured into the old woman's body, and gradually, the old woman became a beautiful woman in her thirties, with a face like peach blossoms, skin like clotted fat, and a graceful figure.

"Ahh , Mother-in-law, how can you ••••••" Princess Xiangxiang was so excited that she couldn't go on.

At this time, the beautiful woman in her arms did not stand up, a pair of talking peach blossom eyes looked at Princess Xiangxiang gently, and smiled slightly, but that smile was enough to make the flowers lose color and be unpretentious, even the woman Princess Xiangxiang was a little stupid, and the beautiful woman immediately said: "Little girl, this is not a mother-in-law to regain her youth, but a return to the light, mother-in-law has little time left, you must remember what the mother-in-law said below, and you must not take it lightly." ”

The extremely magnetic voice made Princess Xiangxiang stunned again, and then said embarrassedly: "Mother-in-law, please say, Xiangxiang will never dare to forget." ”

The beautiful woman's gaze suddenly became distant, and she said faintly: "Thirty-eight thousand years ago, the martial arts civilization on our road was extremely prosperous, and now the strong man who has returned to the void in the realm of life and death is simply a half-weak person in that era, however, the highly developed civilization and the endless strong people bring people infinitely expanding desires and arrogant and blind arrogance. ”

When the beautiful woman said this, she couldn't help but close her eyes in pain, but Princess Xiangxiang was shocked by what the beautiful woman said, and after a while, the beautiful woman continued to speak: "At that time, the people were no longer satisfied with only developing on this continent, they kept conquest in all directions, subdued one continent after another, and spread our martial arts to the four directions without any scruples, until a different creature appeared. ”

At this time, Princess Xiangxiang had been thoroughly brought into the story, and the beautiful woman continued: "It only took three or four thousand years to thoroughly learn the mastery of several major sects at that time, and not only that, but on this basis, it also created a mastery that was very suitable for him, and when he became successful, the nightmare of mankind began." ”

"He, can he deal with all of humanity alone!?" Princess Xiangxiang said with wide eyes.

"Yes, because he has reached a height that few of us humans have reached, one by one the sects have been destroyed at his hands, and when people realize the danger and unite to destroy it, he has established a rather terrible force, that is, the demon army, a protracted war will inevitably break out, three hundred years of war have made countless emperors hate, and the fallen kings are countless, and then we finally won the final victory, but, at that time, people found out, But an even greater calamity has already struck. With that, the beautiful woman closed her eyes again, and tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.

Princess Xiangxiang also wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with empathy, and said, "Mother-in-law, what kind of disaster will mankind face next?" ”

"Those other continents that were originally conquered by us took advantage of the great reduction in our strength, and used the exercises we taught them to deal with us, they continued to rush in under the banner of revenge, we had no choice but to fight with those invaders again, this fight is decades away, seeing that we are already losing and retreating, and we are at the end of the road, so Emperor Lin, I and a few remaining emperors decided to consume their life's strength and longevity, and united to set up a super array, Killing all the invading enemies also took our continent away from its original position and hid it. At this point, the beautiful woman paused suddenly.

Princess Xiangxiang slowly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The seniors are high-spirited and bright, and Xiangxiang admires it!" ”

The beautiful woman smiled bitterly and said: "There is a huge price to pay for this, except for me, several other emperors have already died, and I am the youngest and weakest among them, and I am taken care of by everyone, so I survived, but I also fell into an endless sleep, and I didn't wake up until more than a hundred years ago, but at this time, my skills have been destroyed, but fortunately, my divine consciousness still retains a part, hehe." ”

Princess Xiangxiang asked, "Mother-in-law, is this so-called emperor, king or something all in the realm of cultivation, and is that divine consciousness the same as our current divine thoughts?" ”

"The so-called emperor, king, that is just a title for the strong at that time, as for the realm of cultivation, hehe is different from your current one, and now the martial arts inheritance in the mainland has been broken, and your cultivation exercises are just some inferior goods, these are clues in the ring I gave you, and the road ahead will depend on you to walk." Seeing what Princess Xiangxiang was going to say, the old woman hurriedly waved her hand and interrupted: "Girl, you must remember that the mother-in-law used the remaining life essence to save not the five little guys, you all have the qualifications that are unique in ten thousand, you must protect yourself and grow up safely, what I want to save is the hope of our human race!" ”

The beautiful woman held Princess Xiangxiang's hand tightly and stared at her eyes, and the tears that Princess Xiangxiang had finally stopped rolled down again and again, and nodded: "Mother-in-law, I remember, I will definitely live up to your expectations!" ”

When the beautiful woman heard this, she nodded with satisfaction and said, "That monster was just sealed by us at the beginning, and after so many years, I am afraid that it will be broken out, and it will depend on you then." ”

Princess Xiangxiang wept and said, "Yes, we will definitely do our best when the time comes, and we will never let that monster have any chance." ”

The beautiful woman hummed with relief, and said in a gradually weakened voice: "After I die, you will cremate my bones and scatter my ashes on the mountain where we went to pick mushrooms, I am going to see a few brothers and sisters, and tell them that I have found a successor with a very good character and qualifications~~~~"

After speaking, the beautiful woman's eyes slowly closed, and her hands hung down weakly, only in the blink of an eye, the fragrance faded, leaving only a dry bone, and then came the heart-rending cry of Princess Xiangxiang: "Mother-in-law••••••"

On the wasteland, a total of nearly 2,500 people from both sides marched towards the nearest city, Luoku City of the Sangkun Division, perhaps because the remnants of the previous battle were still there, and the demon beasts that might appear along the way did not appear, and the road was surprisingly calm.

Luoku City is a small and medium-sized city that can accommodate more than 300,000 people, but because it is a border city, the smell of iron and blood here is relatively strong, and you can see teams of heavily armed patrols everywhere, of course, a large group of caravans is not a rare thing, the buildings here are all brick and stone structures and are not high, the two-story buildings are already the highest, but they are all unusually wide, restaurants and wine shops that can accommodate hundreds of people at the same time abound, and there is no luxurious decoration on the street, And it wasn't as clean as the cities Fang Lin had seen before, and it was even a little dirty.

"Oh, I really didn't expect that it was the first time I had seen such a dirty and simple city." Qu Shan'er sighed.

"It's nothing, it's much cleaner than our Baiyi village, when will I take you to our Baiyi tribe to play." Ayinata laughed.

"Actually, I'm most concerned about whether the inn we stay in is also so dirty, and if that happens, we'll be sinned." Bai Lian frowned.

"No, not really, if that's the case, I'd rather not sleep." Wen Yue'er said worriedly.

"It's hard to say, if you fall asleep at night, you'll find a mouse watching you from the side of your pillow." Li Haoran laughed.

"Ah~~~ Nasty Li Haoran, don't say it, I'm sick to death." Wen Yue'er panicked and said: "Sister Shu, I'll sleep with you at night, I remembered that a mouse ran in front of me, and I got goosebumps all over my body." ”

"Giggles, don't listen to Haoran's nonsense, that's so exaggerated, you're a master cultivator in the Yin and Yang Realm, and you're still afraid of a mouse?" Concubine Shu comforted.

At this time, Meng Xuan, who had been pressed all the way by Fang Lin, could be regarded as having found a chance to take revenge, so he said with a wicked smile: "Hehe, I said Yue girl, if you are really afraid, then go and sleep with Fang Lin's boy." ”

Wen Yue'er immediately blushed when she heard this, and buried her head in Concubine Shu's arms amid everyone's laughter, refusing to raise her head alive or dead, Fang Lin was also a little blushing from everyone's laughter, although everyone already knew that Concubine Su and Wen Yue'er were definitely Fang Lin's women, but after all, there was no round house, and the three of them were still very thin-skinned.

"Ah, Lin Yuan Restaurant, you see that there is actually Lin Yuan Restaurant in front, hehe, now we can rest assured that we are eating." After walking for a while, Qu Shan'er pointed to a signboard in front of her and exclaimed in surprise.

Meng Xuan also seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and smiled at Fang Shenxing: "Your Excellency, I didn't expect that your Lin family has already done business abroad." ”

"Hehe, this is also thanks to the strong support of the imperial court, why don't we have dinner at Lin Yuan Restaurant, and by the way, ask them to help us arrange a place to live, after all, people here are much more familiar than us." Fang Meteor smiled.

His proposal was unanimously approved by everyone, and more than 2,000 people went to Lin Yuan Restaurant in such a majestic manner.

As soon as he came to the door of Lin Yuan Restaurant, Fang Lin saw two familiar figures standing there and looking up, as if they were waiting for someone, as soon as they saw Fang Lin and the others coming, they immediately greeted them with a smile, and said: "Haha, Fang Lin, and you, I really didn't expect you to come here, I still can't believe it when I received the message from the elder before, come on, come on, please, we have vacated all the restaurants for you!" ”

"Hehe, Brother Tianqi, Sister Tianying, I haven't seen you for a long time, I'm really embarrassed that so many of us will bother the two of us as soon as we come." Fang Lin also smiled.

It turned out that these two people were Lin Tianqi and Lin Tianying, who participated in the trial of the Shark Imperial City with Fang Lin and them many years ago, these two people can also be regarded as the elite of the Lin family, and at the age of twenty-six or seventeen, they already have the strength to enter the Yan Realm, even if they are in the big sects, they can be regarded as very good.

Suddenly, the entire Lin Yuan Restaurant became noisy, and Fang Lin and the others, plus Meng Xuan and the two deputy generals, as well as Fang Yuanxing, were arranged in the most luxurious private room, accompanied by Lin Tianqi and Lin Tianying.

Needless to say, after everyone had eaten almost enough, Fang Lin asked Lin Tianqi, "Brother Tianqi has been here for many years, so he should be very familiar with the surrounding situation, right?" ”

Lin Tianqi smiled and said boldly: "Brother Fang Lin Xian wants to know something, just ask, Brother Fool knows everything." ”

Fang Lin also asked unceremoniously, "How is the security of this Luoku City?" ”

"Luoku City is a border city, so it implements an army management system, to be honest, the strength of the army in Luoku City is still very strong, although there is only one reincarnation realm powerhouse, but there is no way bandits dare to provoke, as for the general thieves, they dare not spread wild here, so the city is still very safe, you can rest assured." Lin Tianqi said.

"And what about the hundreds of miles from Roku City to Stone Hill City?" Fang Lin continued to ask.

"There is a mountain more than a hundred miles outside Luoku, in fact, it seems to us that it is a small mound at all, there is a bandit village on it, called Snow Bear Village, there are about three or four hundred bandits in it, among which the highest cultivation is only the Yanyan Realm, but these people are a group of outlaws, they dare to touch any passing caravan, but the most puzzling thing is that their success rate is frighteningly high, almost eighty percent, it is really puzzling." Lin Tianqi said.

"Oh!? This is strange, could it be that they are hiding their own cultivation strength? Meng Xuan said with interest when she heard this.

"This shouldn't be, because even several reincarnation realm powerhouses who have seen them say that their strength is not hidden, and there is an even stranger thing that is that every time they rob, there are very few people who die, and many times there are almost no casualties!" Lin Tianqi continued.

"Hehe, interesting, a group of thieves who are not very strong can repeatedly rob past caravans, and almost all of them have zero casualties, what special means do these thieves have?" Li Haoran said with a smile.

"Didn't your garrison go and destroy them?" Meng Xuan asked.

"How could they not have been, but their news seems to be very well-informed, every time they can escape far away before the army arrives, and when the army withdraws, they go back again, continue to occupy the mountain as the king, and so on several times, the government has no patience, anyway, they don't really threaten the government, and slowly let it go." Lin Tianying said.

"However, they have robbed passing caravans so unscrupulously, haven't they posed a threat to the place?" Qu Shan'er was puzzled.

"This is easy to understand, all bandits and robbers are selective, hehe, I think that Brother Tianqi said before that all caravans dare to touch it, the so-called caravans here should not refer to those big caravans with super strength, right?" Li Haoran said with a smile.

"Hehe, Brother Haoran is not entirely right, the caravans mentioned here refer to those caravans that have not applied for military protection, I think the most fundamental reason why the government acquiesced to the arrogance of this bandit is that they can rely on this to extort a sum of money from the past caravans." Lin Tianqi said.

Meng Xuan was a little confused when he heard this, and asked, "How can the existence of bandits provide the government with an opportunity to extort caravanserais?" ”

Qu Shan'er rolled her eyes directly when she heard this, and muttered in a low voice: "I really don't know how this general sat up, I can't even think of this little trick, isn't it a vase!" ”

Although her voice was very small, but the people present were all masters, and listened to her words word for word, and suddenly many people laughed, and Yang Bu even squirted out a sip of wine that she had just drunk, all of which were sprinkled in the dishes in front of her, and the concubines, Wen Yue'er, and Bai Lian on the side covered their mouths with their hands and giggled, and the two lieutenants looked at Qu Shan'er with a look of extreme admiration, only Ayinata was there alone, and asked in a daze: "Vase?" What does she have to do with vases? ”

Poof~haha~~~~, everyone finally couldn't help it, laughed out loud, Meng Xuan was so angry that her face flushed, she, the general of the forbidden army, did sit on it by virtue of a special relationship, this is not a secret at all in the upper echelons of the entire Shang country, but everyone also tacitly understands that the reason why she was sent this time was actually because she was soft and hard, that is, she wanted her to be gilded, but who knows, this layer of window paper was pierced by a joke by Qu Shan'er, which is how Meng Xuan is not angry, Standing up, he was about to make a move on Qu Shan'er.

Fang Yuanxing, who happened to be sitting next to her, raised his hand lightly and said with a smile: "General, how can you take a child's nonsense seriously, dissipate your anger, don't be like a child." ”

Fang Yuanxing deliberately bit the three words of the child very hard, just to tell Meng Xuan, you are a great master of the reincarnation realm, and you are hundreds of years old and still have to deal with a little girl in her twenties, and you have lost your identity.

Meng Xuan knew that she couldn't teach this little girl a lesson, so she took a few deep breaths and said hatefully: "Hmph, you are smart, then you say, how can robbers become a benefit to the government, if you say it wrong, see if I don't tear your mouth!" ”

Qu Shan'er snorted lightly: "I said it right, there is no benefit, if I say it wrong, I will be torn apart by you, how can there be such a good thing, you are a senior in the reincarnation realm and still come to take advantage of my little girl, and you are not afraid of being embarrassed when you say it?" ”

Meng Xuan was half angry when she heard this, and she didn't care so much, she directly took out a long whip shining with starlight from the ring, and said, "If you're right, this dragon bone seven-star whip of the horn-level heavenly rank is yours, how about it?" ”

Qu Shan'er was overjoyed when she heard this, several of them have been training together for so long and have obtained countless good things, but they have never gotten the highest quality equipment, and now they have the top equipment in their team, except for Fang Lin and Dongfang Lei, and Ayinata has a top-level staff, everyone else is still using high-level human-level equipment, so when Qu Shan'er saw this dragon bone seven-star whip, the excitement in her heart did not need to be said.

Qu Shan'er cleared her throat and relayed what she had just heard from Li Haoran: "According to what Brother Tianqi said just now, only caravans protected by the government will not be robbed by bandits, that is to say, most of the caravans in the past will apply for military protection for safety, right?" ”

Lin Tianqi nodded and said, "That's true, but it's strange to say, all the caravans that are protected can arrive at Stone Hill City safely." ”

"Then in this case, I think the cost of protection demanded by the government must not be low." Qu Shan'er continued.

"It's really not low, an ordinary ten-person team will cost twenty high-grade yuan crystals, a squadron of fifty people will need one hundred and twenty high-grade yuan crystals, and a hundred-person team will cost three hundred yuan! This is twenty times higher than the price of mercenaries, and the officers and soldiers who escort them are all ordinary soldiers with low strength, and the sergeant majors above the Nine Nether Realm rarely go out. Lin Tianying smiled bitterly.

Speaking of this, Qu Shan'er glanced at Meng Xuan provocatively and said, "How about it, I don't need to talk about the following." ”

People who can cultivate to the reincarnation realm are not stupid, and when it comes to this, they naturally understand, the reason why Meng Xuan didn't think about it at the beginning is probably related to her living environment, Qu Shan'er saw that Meng Xuan already had a clear expression on her face, so she grinned, stretched out her hand and said, "Take it." ”

Meng Xuan handed over the Dragon Bone Seven Star Whip to Qu Shan'er with great pain, and said, "Then tell me, why as long as the caravan protected by the government is not robbed by bandits?" ”

"Stupid, I can't figure this out, it's obvious that it's the collusion of officials and bandits, otherwise something that can't even be protected by the powerhouses of the Reincarnation Realm, can it be protected by just one or two hundred small miscellaneous soldiers who are less than the Nine Nether Realm?" Qu Shan'er said politely.

At this time, Meng Xuan was surprisingly not angry, but frowned and thought for a moment, and then turned to look at the two lieutenants beside him, and seeing that they were both nodding, Meng Xuan muttered: "It seems that this outside is not as simple as I imagined." ”

••••••

Princess Xiangxiang spilled her ashes on the mountain as the old woman instructed, and then returned to the hut, put away the rest of the things, and then swallowed a raw soul-snatching soup, and began to cultivate.

This cultivation is five days, when Princess Xiangxiang opened her eyes, she was pleasantly surprised to find that the realm she had just stabilized had actually improved a lot, and she had directly broken through to the level of the entry level of the Yin and Yang Realm, and the true yuan in her body was extremely condensed, which was obviously a sign that the realm had been completely stabilized.

Princess Xiangxiang lowered her head and muttered, "Mother-in-law, thank you, don't worry, I will definitely fulfill your last wish." ”

As she spoke, she flipped her hand and took out a jade slip from the ring, opened it and read: "In the summer of 3186 in the •••••• Yu calendar, Emperor Yu Hui Lin and Emperor Xin were in Cangshan, leading 300,000 troops to attack the south of the Shark Imperial City, although the army of our human race attacked the city on all sides, but the city was high and strong, and it could not be broken for several months, it was the middle of winter, we had no way to retreat, the Emperor Xin sacrificed himself to become benevolent, and blew himself up before the city gate, the southern city was broken, and then fought for a few days, the city was broken, and the enemy was forced to attack the Shark Palace, and then fought for seven days, and the demons were killed, and the Shark Emperor was hit hard, and he sealed himself in the palace, We have also suffered a lot of damage, there are few million elites left, and we are no longer able to break the formation, but we have united the strength of the people to seal the Shark Imperial City in a different space.

In the spring of 3190 in the calendar of Cao Yu, the coalition forces of the other continent attacked our land, although we were seriously injured, we also rose up to resist, and experienced many wars, but the strength was not good, the emperors had no choice but to join forces, self-damage cultivation, longevity, and destroy the enemy in a battle, and the Tibetan people were in Taiyuan.

To this day, Yu Zizhi is not long in life, but the disaster of the Shark Emperor is still there, if the descendants get my token, they can go to my palace, get my inheritance, eliminate the disaster before it happens, rejuvenate the Wu clan in danger, and return my realm to the ancestral land, be cautious and cautious. ”

After reading this old woman's experience, Princess Xiangxiang couldn't help but admire the noble sentiments of this senior master, and then she took out an animal skin scroll from the ring, on which was a very clear map, which clearly marked the location of the old woman's palace, geographical characteristics, climatic conditions, and various organs, traps, formations and control hubs of the palace.

Seeing this, Princess Xiangxiang knew that she had a great opportunity, and of course she also had to take on the great responsibility, put away the animal skin scroll, and Princess Xiangxiang took out a blue ancient book with two ancient characters written on the cover "Poison Technique".

Princess Xiangxiang was shocked to see this poison book, originally she thought that the old woman must have been a god blessing teacher before her death, after all, all she showed was the ability to help the world and save people, but she didn't expect that the old woman turned out to be a master of using poison!

Turning over the general outline, Princess Xiangxiang was immediately attracted by the first sentence: "Poisoner, Yiye; Practitioner, technique also. Skills complement each other, it is the momentum, and if the momentum is successful, it will be unfavorable and ••••••"

It took Princess Xiangxiang three hours to take a cursory look at this poison book, and to her surprise, the old woman was also an assassin in front of her! The book tells the old woman's understanding of poison, the application of poison, the cracking of poison, and all kinds of poison prescriptions, and what makes Princess Xiangxiang applaud is that the old woman has actually raised poison to the height of an art, obviously some very ordinary poisons, but under the unimaginable use of the old woman's methods, it can play an unimaginable effect, in front of her, these so-called poison masters are just like children who have just learned to walk.

What Princess Xiangxiang didn't expect was that if she combined poison and assassination, the power would be beyond her imagination, and Princess Xiangxiang was overjoyed and studied it without delay.

In the blink of an eye, another five days passed, Princess Xiangxiang was almost uncontrollable, and most importantly, she had mastered several preliminary methods of using poison, and just as she was specializing in one technique, she suddenly heard a slight conversation in the distance.

Princess Xiangxiang frowned, and said in her heart: "In such a remote small village, how can anyone come at night, there is a problem!" ”

••••••
