Volume 2 Chapter 244 Alchemy
"That's really ...... It's hopeless. Chen Sheng shook his head, it was difficult to express his thoughts at the moment, I have to say that Ape Shi's move was really a move from the bottom of the kettle, but it was a pity that the person who swallowed this evil fruit was himself.
He didn't have time to think of a way to break the game, because the bloodthirsty beasts were all rushing madly, and it seemed that Chen Sheng walked up the corridor and completely angered them.
Holding the long knife in his hand, Chen Sheng's face was awe-inspiring, fighting in the blood in the sky.
The ape stone rushed through the herd and arrived, and the stone knife emitted a milky white light, which seemed to have some kind of overwhelm over the bloodthirsty beast, making it dare not pounce for a short time.
"It won't be long before they get used to it, and they don't overdraw. Chen Sheng spoke softly, observing several bloodthirsty beasts farthest away from the white light, the skin on their bodies began to change, and the light shining on their bodies was also weakening.
Ape Shi followed his gaze, and suddenly his heart sank slightly, and he accepted the stone knife with mysterious power, and frowned: "Even the treasure given by the teacher can only resist for a moment, this monster is really terrifying." ”
Chen Sheng chuckled when he heard this, the tall man beside him, although he was extremely dissatisfied with the old man's gift verbally, actually cherished it in his heart.
"I've killed a lot of them just now, let's take a closer look at how they breed. ”
"Good. ”
A look of surprise flashed on Ape Shi's face, just now he saw that Chen Sheng was surrounded by bloodthirsty beasts, so he came to sacrifice the treasure weapon, and now when he heard this, he seemed to be in a hurry.
In the eyes of the two of them, many bloodthirsty beasts surrounded a pool of blood, which was formed by the corpse of the monster killed by Chen Sheng, and they gathered in one place at some point, and some kind of unpredictable change occurred at this moment.
The blood slowly coagulated, turning into a large blood-colored crystal.
"Is this breath the handiwork of that guy?" Ape Stone said in horror.
Chen Sheng turned his head and asked, "Who?"
"The giant dragon, the deepest part of the area he guarded, near the dormitory, had countless such blood clots along the road. It was difficult for the ape stone to calm down in his heart, and even now, he still remembers that tragic scene.
Even if the giant calf was still asleep at that time, the juvenile ape stone could hear the wailing of nearly a hundred miles of territory and see the wandering spirits floating in the wasteland.
"Are you talking about this guy?" Chen Sheng quickly drew a figure, and he could vaguely see the body of a huge demon beast, which was murderous just by looking at it.
Observing the shrinking pupils of the ape, Chen Sheng smiled and said, "It's okay, if it's really this person's means, I may be able to find a solution." ”
Ape Stone scratched his ears and made sure that he had heard correctly, then asked in amazement: "That guy is elusive, even the teacher can't figure out his way, do you have a way?"
Chen Sheng grinned and said lightly: "Mountain people have their own clever plans, so Brother Ape doesn't have to worry." ”
I saw that he put away his long knife, and his hands formed an extremely complex knot in front of him, and it was still changing, so fast that even the eyes of the ape stone couldn't catch up.
Ape Shi muttered to himself: "This is the method of the human race, and there really is some kind of other power. ”
With Chen Sheng's seal, blood-colored ripples rippled in the space where the corridor was located, and the bloodthirsty beasts everywhere they passed all obediently lay down, although there was still a strong killing intent in their eyes, they were heading towards the ape stone.
Looking at such a strange scene, Ape Shi opened his mouth wide, his face full of disbelief, at this time Chen Sheng had arrived, and a bloody ray shot out from his fingertips, landing on the center of Special Eyebrow.
Ape Shi clearly felt that the murderous intent around him receded like a tide, and those bloodthirsty monsters also became very tame, and even Chen Sheng squatted down and stroked the head of a bloodthirsty beast.
"Brother Ape, can I take some of the blood you took, I can't control them for too long. Chen Sheng's words were a little tired, and Ape Shi keenly observed that this white-clothed and white-bearded old man had completely depleted the True Yuan Spiritual Qi in his body, like a spring that had never had flowing water.
Now it seems that the source of the power of the bloodthirsty beast and the corridor should be the blood dripping from this corpse, and the two are in the same breath, but they balance each other.
Obviously, the ape's over-excesses had upset the balance and allowed the Bloodthirsty Beast to escape, and the only way to solve the problem at this moment was to give it back, at least so that the corridor could inspire that power.
Ape Shi is at war with heaven and man in his heart, and he really wants to take the opportunity to kill Chen Sheng, maybe he can have enough 'sacrifices', as long as he can save the teacher, he can do anything.
Chen Sheng's eyes narrowed slightly, he naturally knew the tangled emotions in Ape Shi's heart, and he could understand his difficulties. Chen Sheng said meaningfully: "It seems that there is still salvation." ”
In the end, Ape Stone chose the most unpleasant method, and he nodded, "If you can take out the stone jar, I will let you use the blood in it." ”
Originally thinking that a catastrophe was coming, he threw the stone jar to Chen Sheng, wanting to leave this thing for the resurrection of the teacher, but he didn't expect Chen Sheng to be so skillful that he could suppress the bloodthirsty beasts.
The hearts of the two were not calm, Chen Sheng put his hand into the Qiankun bag and grasped the stone jar.
At the same moment, the figure of the ape stone disappeared in front of him, and almost in the blink of an eye, he came in front of him, and the huge fist came with a monstrous momentum.
With a "bang", Chen Sheng was knocked out, and he paid an extremely terrifying price for the handprint, and the true yuan in his body was insufficient, and he was very vain.
Ape Shi chased after him again, and said expressionlessly: "I have already given me the opportunity, and I hope you don't blame me." ”
Chen Sheng, this giant ape wants to kill himself and strip off his bloodline?
Thinking of this, Chen Sheng came out of nowhere, opened the stone jar suddenly, and shouted: "If you take another step forward, don't blame me for being ruthless, and completely cut off the hope of Ling Shi's rebirth." ”
"Huh...... Xiaoyou is not refining medicine in the hall, what are you doing here?" The old man who returned to the body of divine consciousness was full of energy, and his eyes were extraordinarily bright, giving people the feeling that he was not a bodyless existence, but more like the power of the out-of-body night watch.
Chen Sheng's face changed slightly, he didn't care about anything else, he flew over to inspect Lin Ku's situation, and handed over the mess to the master and apprentice.
The old man looked at his apprentice with a smile and said, "Yes, now that you finally have some chance, there are constant disputes in the forbidden land, and it will be of great benefit to you to be able to take this cold-blooded step." ”
Ape Stone saluted respectfully, and there was a hint of pride in his pale golden eyes.
In his early years, he was the most rigid demon beast in the forbidden land, perhaps because of his father's words and deeds, Ape Stone has always lacked a fierce aura, so that after the death of his parents, before meeting the old man, he has been bullied by various demon beasts, even if some of them are far inferior to Ape Stone.
The old man sighed secretly in his heart, came to the bloodthirsty beasts, glanced at the bloodthirsty beasts that were about to erupt, and snorted coldly: "When your master came, he didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of the old man, and he dared to defile the eyes of this seat here. ”
When the words landed, a faint light lit up in the entire air, stirring out from the old man's body, sweeping away the bloody murderous aura in his passing, making this place extremely solemn.
At this moment, Chen Sheng hugged Lin Ku and said with a gloomy expression: "This is what the predecessors said will not hurt him?"
His shouts came, the faces of both the master and apprentice changed, and the ape stone hurried over, and after investigating the situation of Lin Ku, he was obviously relieved and persuaded: "It's just that he has lost some of his origin, and he can make up for him after the teacher is reborn in the future." ”
"Make it up?" Chen Sheng sneered, stared at the ape stone and said, "Can you make it up?"
"Even if you can't make it back, it doesn't seem like it's your turn to intervene, it's a deal I made with him, it's just a matter of reaping the results. The old man's tone was indifferent, and he suppressed the bloodthirsty beast under the corridor at will, his strength did not weaken at all, and he was still in good spirits, which was the result of absorbing the origin of Lin Ku's life.
Chen Sheng's face was ugly and terrifying, holding the stone jar and many jade boxes containing the medicinal liquid in his hand, "Return the origin!"
The old man's eyes narrowed, and he looked at Chen Sheng a little differently, but this was not enough for him to give up the source of life in his hands, and the old man said indifferently: "It's just forty years of life, for a young Jin Dan like him, it's nothing, isn't it cost-effective to exchange it for your life?"
Chen Sheng sneered and said: "Monk Jindan is only a few hundred years old, forty years of time, could it be that the predecessors think it is a trivial matter?"
Hearing this, the old man's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't see the meaning of fraud from Chen Sheng's face, and he couldn't help but be surprised: "As long as the demon beast that gave birth to the Inner Dan is safe, it can live for thousands of years, why is the longevity of the human race so short?"
"What are you talking about?" Chen Sheng was puzzled, saying the longevity limit of the outside world, even the Xuangui clan, which is famous for their longevity, is rarely able to buy past the thousand-year mark, and it is only possible to cross it after breaking through the Yuan Infant.
The person who has experienced the longest years in the cultivation world is a human monk with excellent talent, and he entered the realm of Yuan Ying when he was a teenager, but in the next thousand years, he devoted himself to the method of prolonging life, and it is rumored that this person broke the shackles of heaven and earth in his later years and lived to the terrifying third millennium.
After hearing that even if he swallowed the life-prolonging thing, he would only be able to live for such a short time, a trace of hesitation appeared on the old man's face, and it was absolutely impossible for him to return the origin in his hand, but for the human race with a lifespan of only a few hundred years, forty years of lifespan was not a small amount.
"I beg my seniors to return the origin. Chen Sheng took a step forward, his mouth was please, but his palm never let go of the two things, both of which were related to the rebirth of the old man.
Ape Shi looked nervous, and anxiously persuaded: "Brother Chen, don't worry, there must be a better solution to this matter." ”
Chen Sheng sneered and said, "At this juncture, Brother Ape still thinks that it can be good, unless the seniors return the origin, otherwise we will burn all the jade." ”
At this moment, the yin of the old man's body is about to be dissipated, and only when the yin and yang begin to fuse at the time of the alternation of yin and yang can it not damage the realm of strength before death.
Chen Sheng and the old man are well aware of this, and the two sides are at a stalemate at the moment.
"Senior Chen......" Lin Kuqiang opened his eyes, with a smile on his pale face, and said: "If there were no seniors, I am only afraid that I would have died a long time ago, and this price does not matter." ”
"Shut up!" Chen Sheng scolded, what he wanted now was not just for the old man to send the origin back, but also to see if this monk of the God Transformation Realm was good or evil.
In the cultivation world, unless there is a deep hatred that cannot be dissolved, no one will deprive others of the origin of life, not only because the origin is extremely difficult to extract and refine, but also because there is a deep reason.
Each sect has the precept of the ancestors, the essence of life belongs to the great secret of heaven and earth, and mortals should not take it lightly.
Although I don't know if there are such rules in this small world, since Chen Sheng has offended the old man, he doesn't mind offending him more ruthlessly.
The old man was silent for a long time, and then suddenly asked, "How sure is your jar of blood that I can be reborn?" ”
Apeshi's face was slightly gloomy.
"I want to listen to the truth!" the old man's tone began to be a little stern, and only then did Ape Shi loosen his mouth and spit out a sentence that made the old man's face pale, he said: "If you add the blood of the disciple, it is enough to make the teacher completely come to life." ”
Chen Sheng's expression was indifferent, because there was obviously something hidden in Ape Shi's words, but he was afraid that most of the sacrifices would be added to him and Lin Ku.
The old man snorted coldly, looked at Chen Sheng, and asked, "How sure are you of your elixir?"
Of course, he wouldn't let his apprentice exchange his life for his life, but he couldn't fully trust Chen Sheng, and he opened his mouth to ask at this moment, his eyes observing the change in Chen Sheng's expression.
It's a pity that Chen Sheng has already prepared a set of rhetoric, saying: "As long as Dancheng is achieved, I am ten percent sure that my predecessors will merge with my physical body." ”
"Is there any hidden danger?" the old man threw out the most crucial question.
The corners of Chen Sheng's eyes twitched, and he replied, "I'm afraid that I won't say it at this moment, and my predecessors won't believe it, right?"
"This is natural. ”
"The junior will tell the truth, this pill has a great drawback, after the fusion of the divine consciousness and the physical body, there will be a blank period every hundred years, in this short period of time, the two will have a rejection reaction, and it needs to be suppressed with a specific elixir. Chen Sheng said, taking out a porcelain bottle, although he had not refined the main medicine these days, he had prepared this suppressed thing.
Sniffing the medicinal fragrance coming from Chen Sheng's palm, Ape Shi frowned and said, "You knew that the teacher would choose your elixir. ”
"I believe that my predecessors would choose me more than the so-called gods. Chen Sheng held his hands behind, his words were full of confidence, from ancient times to the present, every monk who has achieved cultivation has relied on his own step by step, and will not believe in nothingness, Chen Sheng believes that the old man is also like this.
The facts did not disappoint him, a large amount of pure life energy rushed out of the old man's body, and after he entered Lin Ku's body, his face instantly became rosy, although he still lost some longevity, it was much better.
The old man's body became illusory, looked at Chen Sheng, and said, "Give you another chance, don't let the old man down." ”
"I will live up to the trust of my predecessors. Chen Sheng smiled lightly.
He had already figured out his way, and the final stage of refining the elixir was nearing its end.
The old man re-entered Lin Ku's body, but this time he didn't make the latter fall asleep, but his eyes widened, staring at Chen Sheng's alchemy pill for a moment.
As the flames rose, Chen Sheng placed nearly a thousand jade boxes in front of him, which were the ten raw materials he had prepared.
If there was a real alchemy master here, he would definitely scold Chen Sheng's behavior, and if he was more short-tempered, he might even kill him directly.
For no other reason, this guy actually opened all the jade boxes, and although they were covered with a thin layer of seals, it was difficult to completely stop the flow of their medicinal power.
The ape's gaze swept over, his mind picked and chose among the Qiankun bag, and then a big mountain suddenly appeared, almost covering all the cyan steps, Chen Sheng glanced at it, all of them were the elixirs necessary for refining this elixir.
"Don't look at me like that, the apes are good at making wine, and it's not strange that I, the patriarch, have some ingredients on me. Ape Stone said indifferently with a calm face.
Chen Sheng smiled and completely sank his mind into Danding.
After confirming that Chen Sheng couldn't hear it, Ape Shi asked, "Teacher, do you really want to believe in a human race?"
The corners of Lin Ku's mouth raised, and he said jokingly: "You brought the person, can't you believe it?"
Ape Shi was a little forgiving, and said: "Originally, the disciple believed it, but some things that happened after that made me unable to see through this person. ”
The old man smiled, and with Lin Ku's body, he smiled extremely brightly, like a young man in fresh clothes and angry horses, making people unconsciously forget the old soul under his young face.
"He already understands that this person is far more open-minded than others, and he will not use his hands and feet in the pill because of these things. ”
Ape Shi was shocked, only the first time they met, the teacher actually gave such a high evaluation, and was even willing to hand over life and death to a stranger.
On the other hand, looking at his careful calculations along the way, Ape Shi was wondering at the moment, with Chen Sheng's clever heart, whether he had already guessed his intentions and plans, and deliberately did not say anything.
The old man pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "You think well, that kid is indeed smart, if it weren't for the human race, I would like to accept him as a closed disciple." ”
"What?" Ape Shi couldn't help but exclaim, there were not many people in the forbidden land who knew about his relationship with the old man's master and apprentice, just a few people, but what they didn't know was that he was only a registered disciple of the old man, and he didn't have a real mantle to pass down.
With a smile in his eyes, Lin Ku shook his head and said, "It's a pity, he is a human race after all, and he can't stay here for a long time, and he can't be your little junior brother." ”
"Why can't the Terrans stay for a long time?" Ape Shi frowned, in his memory, there were some places outside the forbidden land, there were Terrans, and the one who broke into this place and gave birth to the Ape Stone with the female golden ape was an extremely powerful human.
"Huh...... I've told you these secrets, and you can't take them now, so I'll tell you when the time comes. "After that, 'Lin Ku' closed his mouth, and didn't seem to have any intention of saying any more.
Although Ape Stone was full of curiosity about the outside world and longed for his father's hometown, he couldn't force his teacher, and the helplessness in those words made his heart palpitate.
.........
On the ancient tree on the edge of the forbidden land, half of Ye Lin's body scales had disappeared and were taken under the skin, and Feng Zhi next to him was familiar with the body of the demon beast, and the expression on his face was almost numb.
The two of them suffered on this ancient tree for seven days, and there were no less than hundreds of demon beasts that were sucked by Ye Lin's blood, among which the strongest one was only Zhuji, in Ye Lin's words, this level of ants, no matter how many they died, it was difficult to attract truly powerful demon beasts.
Feng Zhi felt deeply that after each swallowing, the scales on Ye Lin's body were as if they had received great nutrients, flashing with a faint glow, and Ye Lin's strength would also make great progress.
This is not difficult to see from the fewer and fewer scales on his body.
On this day, however, the woods at the junction changed.
Ape Chop walked alone under the tree, looked around for a while, and then dug the soil under the tree, and carefully put in a yellow package.
"This is the powerhouse of the ape clan, why did he come here?" Ye Lin frowned, looked at the ape slash that was gone away in an instant, fell into deep thought, and finally reached out and pushed Feng Zhi, and said, "Go down and dig that thing out." ”
"Me?" Feng Zhi was slightly stunned, and said in a little panic: "What such a strong person cherishes, there must be a formation prohibition and protection, if you and I move without permission, are we really not afraid of death?"
"Don't be afraid, my current strength can already compete with the Jindan Demon Beast, if there is danger, I will save you. Ye Linpi smiled and said with a smile.
"Is there really no room for negotiation?" Feng Zhi was dying, although he knew that there was probably no hope, and at the moment when he was about to jump, he caught a glimpse of Ye Lin smiling out of the corner of his eye, and the smile was very penetrating.
Ye Lin said: "You don't have to go, there are things that don't know whether to live or die for us to find the way." ”
As Feng Zhi said, the things that can make the ape cut down the precious will really lead to a lot of misfortune, and an old man came out of the jungle, with a blue-green robe, a white face and beardlessness, but there are traces of the vicissitudes of life built by the Taoist years.
The old man in the green robe bent down, and with a small white jade shovel, carefully removed the soil around the package for a distance, and put away the soil mass with lightning speed, along with the package.
"The old thief is so bold!"
Although the old man in the green robe was so careful, he was still noticed by the ape, and after a few breaths, he chased after him and intercepted him in the woods.
Ape Slash looked at the man and frowned, "Who are you from, what clan are you from?" he frantically retraced in his mind, but could not recall any memories of the old man.
The old man no longer concealed it, took out the clods, and grinned: "I have laid a formation on this package, if it is not opened according to the correct method, the contents will be destroyed." ”
"What did you say?" The ape's huge body stepped forward to force out the method of opening, and this package contained some things inherited by the Demon Ape Clan, as well as the ore mined by the Ape Clan.
Several elders of the ape clan have already enshrined him as the acting patriarch, although he is unwilling, the ape slash still has to bear the responsibility, but at this moment, what he carefully hid was stolen at will.
"Could it be that there is something wrong with that tree?" Ape Slash whispered in his heart, the reason why he chose such a collection method was because the trees here were extraordinary, they were extremely rare spirit trees, and after being hooked up by him with the formation, there would be a great power to firmly protect the things in the formation.
However, with a turn of the back, the thing was stolen, and the ape had to have this suspicion at this moment.
The old man on the other side seemed to have no patience to stalemate, threw the package into the sky, and laughed: "I have laid a ban on destruction outside, if you don't catch up and lift it, I'm afraid that the ape clan's efforts these days will be in vain." ”
Ape Slash's face was difficult to see, and he glared at the old man, and then flew into the sky, taking the package in his hand, only to find that there was no prohibition, and when he turned around, the old man was gone.
Returning to the tree with a dark face, Ape Slash examined it carefully, and saw nothing unusual, and left with a frown, this time he did not dare to leave the package behind.
The two people on the treetops breathed a sigh of relief, Feng Zhi felt a little more breath beside him, slowly turned his head, and patted the old man in the green robe on the shoulder with a smiling face, and said, "The two little friendly means, these days must be a lot of gains, right?"
