"Except for the method of opening the seal, I don't know anything else, before the teacher died, I was only a fourth-level Dan master, and his medicinal forest had already advanced to the fifth level, so the position of this hall master should have been his. But how do you know, the medicine forest is not right, and in the end, the teacher did not really pass on the position of the hall master to him, and the secret of the pavilion was no longer known with the death of the teacher. Qingchen said, his face couldn't help showing a touch of sadness, obviously, the former had a lot of regrets about this memory.

Deeply touched by Qingchen, Xu Zhen also sighed. Then, I only listened to Qingchen Zhengse: "Brother Xu, I hope you can help me keep this secret, Ou Chuyang opened the seal, no matter what he gets, don't let people from the outside world know, otherwise, it will definitely bring him unnecessary killing, this is also my request to you." ”

Seeing Qingchen like this, Xu Zhen also knew how serious this matter was, but he still pretended to be displeased: "Am I a person who chews the root of his tongue?"

Hearing this, Qingchen smiled slightly, knowing that Xu Zhen agreed to his request, he hurriedly hugged his fists and thanked him: "Then Qingchen thanked Brother Xu." ”

"Hmm~"

Just as the two elders were talking, Ou Chuyang, who was on the bed, suddenly let out a painful snort, which immediately attracted the attention of the two elders.

"Ou Chuyang. ”

Moving to the side of the bed, Qingchen called eagerly, and then, under the concerned gaze of the second elder, Ou Chuyang finally slowly opened his eyes.

The pitch-black eyes were not as bright as before they woke up, and when Ou Chuyang fully opened his eyes, he only felt as if his eyes were covered by a thin layer of mist, and he couldn't clearly observe the surrounding environment for a while. Moreover, what made Ou Chuyang feel most uncomfortable was that when his mind began to move, there was an immediate sharp pain in his head.

"Woo~"

Ou Chuyang struggled, one arm was laboriously leaning on the edge of the bed, and the other hand was pressing the head of the severe pain, shaking his head vigorously, and whispering, "Where am I?"

Seeing that Ou Chuyang woke up, the situation was not very good, the second elder couldn't help frowning, and then, Qingchen asked with concern: "Don't worry, this is Dantang, how are you now?"

Hearing Qingchen's voice, Ou Chuyang patted his forehead and replied, "It's okay." It's just that my head hurts a little. ”

Hearing this, Qingchen felt a little relieved, and then said, "Don't talk yet, take a rest." ”

Nodding helplessly, Ou Chuyang was silent again. After a long while, when Ou Chuyang felt that his head was no longer in pain, he sat down steadily, and at this time, the blurred vision became clear.

After carefully observing the surrounding environment, he found that he was still in the healing hut, and the only two people in the room were still acquaintances, so he was relieved.

"I..."Seeing Qingchen, Ou Chuyang had not yet recovered his thoughts, and just wanted to ask him about the Dan Shen's hand piercing. At this time, two completely different voices came from the outside world and the soul at the same time, and although these two voices came from the mouths of the two people, their meanings coincided with the same.

"Don't say it. ”

In the soul, there was a sudden sound of Wang Array's shouting, and Qingchen also stopped Ou Chuyang who was about to speak at the same time.

Hearing the two voices sound at the same time, Ou Chuyang was slightly stunned, and then he heard the king array in his soul say: "The stakes are very high, no matter what you get, don't tell others first." ”

Hearing this, Ou Chuyang's face moved, but he reacted immediately, and when he just wanted to find a reason to cover it up, Qingchen took the lead in speaking in a very timely manner: "No matter what you get in the Pavilion, it is yours now, since it is yours, there is no need to tell others." ”

The two of them were so consistent that Ou Chuyang couldn't help but be a little stunned, and when he saw Xu Zhen looking at him with deep meaning in his eyes and nodding his head, Ou Chuyang also suddenly realized, I'm afraid, they are afraid that this news will leak and cause unnecessary trouble for themselves, although there are only three people in this room, but who can guarantee that the wall has no ears.

nodded in full understanding, and then, since Ou Chuyang's injuries had not healed, Xu Zhen and Qingchen did not disturb Ou Chuyang, but after instructing him to recuperate with peace of mind and pay attention to rest, they both retreated.

Based on the shock incident of the pavilion tower caused by Ou Chuyang, there were rumors and rumors within the imperial capital.

The conjecture of the civilians was caused by natural disasters such as earthquakes, but the conjecture of the martial cultivators was the scene of this kind of strong man clash again after the battle between Xu Zhen and the mysterious strong man that day. All of a sudden, rumors spread in the Feiyun Imperial Capital, and this incident undoubtedly became a topic of endless discussion among people after dinner.

The rumors were scattered like snowflakes in the middle of winter, and just as there were more and more so-called explanations, there was another more real news from within the Dantang, that is, the news that was carefully arranged by Liu Changfeng and dispersed: Qingchen failed to advance to the sixth level Dan Master.

When the news broke, the empire was in an uproar. As we all know, the success of a Danshi is undoubtedly based on hard work and excellence, and in addition to these two prerequisites, the most difficult thing is luck.

Sure enough, Qingchen didn't have any good luck, so he failed to refine the sixth-level pill, but even so, everyone in the empire who understood a little bit couldn't help but be greatly shocked by Qingchen's actions, sixth-level Danshi, what a glorious title, you know, there are very few sixth-level pills on the mainland, but there is no one in the Feiyun Empire.

Now, Qingchen began to sprint to that higher and more difficult level, which was like a stimulant for the people of the empire, inspiring the people's hearts, and if the empire could have a sixth-level Dan master, the strength would rise to a terrifying level, there was no doubt about it. Therefore, even if Qingchen fails, countless people will believe that the former will definitely come to that amazing step.

Admittedly, all this is just a lie, and this lie is designed to avoid rumors about the Dian Pavilion. However, to Qingchen's delight, this lie succeeded, under Liu Changfeng's arrangement, this lie successfully suppressed the incident, even if some people still don't believe it, but this kind of people tend to be in the minority.

With the passage of time, people began to slowly forget the Diange incident that had alarmed countless people, and at this time, more than two months had passed.

For more than two months, Ou Chuyang has stayed in Dantang and never stepped out of the door, in the eyes of many people who know the inside story, this genius who once conquered the hearts of countless people with his strong strength in the Imperial Capital Square seems to be sluggish and degenerate.

During Ou Chuyang's recuperation, his friends who knew him well, including the freshmen in the academy: Xu Jie'er, Dongfang Xue, Shen Hang, and Qiu Na, who had a very good relationship with Ou Chuyang, came to visit him, but to everyone's disappointment, what they saw was the former's confused and unyielding expression. Therefore, they were all disappointed that after the sneak attack of the medicinal forest, Ou Chuyang, who was highly poisoned, began to be depressed step by step.

Of course, things were not as they thought, Ou Chuyang was not depressed, nor was he depressed, and the reason why his expression was in a trance was entirely because of an important thing that was embarrassing his heart, that is, the poison of this black blood silk.

At night, in the dimly lit hut, there was a faint purple flame brilliance, this brilliance was extremely bright, but it was only the beginning, with the surging of Ou Chuyang's internal qi in the house, within a moment, this brilliance disappeared in the Ding furnace, and this was the most depressed knot in Ou Chuyang's heart.

"Alas, failed again. ”

In the dimly lit hut again, there was an inaudible scolding, yes, this angry scolding came from the mouth of Ou Chuyang, who was in a disturbed mood.

Qi Gathering Pill, the third-level pill that had been easily refined by countless skilled people, after losing the support of most of the internal qi, its refining was extremely difficult, and this was already how many times Ou Chuyang had refined.

A rough estimate shows that the refining of the Qi Gathering Pill has failed eight times out of ten, and only two times have succeeded, and each time it has to consume all of its internal qi.

Although angry, but the more mature Ou Chuyang was not carried away by this blow, in the past two months, the former after countless tests, finally found a more gratifying thing, that is, the current use of body ** qi.

In the past two months, although Ou Chuyang has not given up cultivation, but his main purpose is to focus on alchemy, countless attempts, and finally found that the internal qi in his body is not completely sealed by the three needles of black blood silk, at least in refining medicine, if he can endure the temperament and slow down the output of internal qi, then he can still maintain a relatively long time, in this way, maybe the time of alchemy will be greatly increased each time, but it can maintain the success rate of application.

Getting this conclusion, Ou Chuyang seemed to understand a little, the poison of the black blood silk would be very annoying to imprison his internal qi, and he couldn't make himself go all out, such a shackle for others might be equivalent to turning others into a useless waste, but for Ou Chuyang, he could also refine the pill.

Of course, the poison of black blood silk is not so simple, Ou Chuyang found that in the past two months, the former's violent toxicity has not only been able to control his cultivation, but what is even more terrifying is that it is actually eating away at his internal qi little by little, so that the results of his hard cultivation are slowly slipping, and this is what makes Ou Chuyang feel the most distressed. If there is no effective way to control its toxicity, Ou Chuyang believes that the one-year deadline that Qingchen once told him will definitely come as promised.

"What's the difference between this and waiting for death?" Slapping the Medicine King Ding Furnace in front of him heavily, Ou Chuyang thought resentfully.

"Young people, don't give up on yourself, be calm. Hearing Ou Chuyang's angry scolding, Wang Zhen in his soul suddenly comforted, but this consolation didn't seem to have the slightest concern, but seemed to be ridiculing.

Hearing this, Ou Chuyang rolled his eyes and retorted: "Peaceful?

"Alas~, it's better to have hope than nothing, as the saying goes, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and now everything has room to turn around, isn't it just developing towards the good side?" In the soul, Wang Zhen's laughter rose again.

Hearing this, Ou Chuyang also knew that Wang Zhen was comforting himself in a more pleasant way, and he couldn't help but show gratitude, but then, the former fell into distress again.

"Alas~" With a long sigh, Ou Chuyang muttered: "Black blood silkworms, purple leaf chrysanthemums, and burning spirit pollen, these kinds of things are not easy to get." Hope? Hope. ”

Hearing the amazement in Ou Chuyang's tone, Wang Zhen couldn't bear to joke with him anymore, and immediately said solemnly: "This black blood silkworm can be found in the dark mountain range, however, he is a fifth-level spirit beast, with your current strength, there must be no return, purple leaf chrysanthemum and burning spirit pollen, although I am not very familiar with alchemy, but I have heard of these two things, there is nothing difficult, they are all fifth-level medicinal materials, the living environment of the black blood silkworm is inseparable from the purple leaf chrysanthemum, because it is a medicinal material that the black blood silkworm must eat, this burning spirit pollen, I don't know." ”

It turned out that since Ou Chuyang got the Danshen hand piercing, he actually found that the secret recipe for how to remove the poison of this black blood silk was recorded in the hand piercing, but the medicinal materials of this secret recipe were very rare, and what made Ou Chuyang most distressed was that if this secret recipe medicinal materials were obtained, it would be a big problem.

"Burning Spirit Pollen?" After taking over Wang Zhen's words, Ou Chuyang smiled bitterly: "A strange flower that grows in humid areas, his pollen has a detoxifying effect, and it is also a fifth-level medicinal material, this Burning Spirit Pollen is much more rare than that purple leaf chrysanthemum." ”

"That's nothing, don't you know the number one chamber of commerce in the empire, just let them help you buy it, it's not difficult, even purple leaf chrysanthemum can be, but I'm afraid you have to find this black blood silkworm yourself, or you can find a few strong people to walk around the dark mountain range, if you can meet it, it would be great." Wang Zhen said.

"Dark Mountain Range?" Hearing this place, Ou Chuyang was slightly stunned, knowing the secret recipe for so long, Wang Zhen had mentioned the origin of the black blood silkworm more than once, but it had been two months since he really paid attention to this place.

"Isn't that holy land in the dark mountain range? if you enter the holy land, you won't say that you will definitely be able to find this black blood silkworm, but the hope will be greatly increased. ”

Thinking of this, Ou Chuyang's eyes flashed with excitement that he hadn't seen for a long time, and said, "Maybe you're right, it's better to have hope than to wait for death, you should think of a way." ”

Hearing this, the soul king array nodded with relief, it seems that Ou Chuyang has not been knocked down by this blow.

"Snort~"

In the early morning, when the red sun had just risen over the horizon, a rare gasp could be heard in the backyard of the Dantang, and in this forbidden place where even most of the people inside the Dantang could not walk, a young man dressed in short clothes was running around the courtyard tiredly. Sweat slid down the slightly immature cheeks and dripped onto the ground, soaking patches of dirt.
