Chapter 172: Hideous Face
After arriving at the Absolute Valley, Mo Qin soon learned the news related to the Mo family from the mouths of some demon cultivators, and many Demon Gate masters went to the Absolute Valley that day, so the movement was not small, and many people also knew some reasons, when Mo Tiancheng was besieged by four Mahayana Demon Cultivators and activated the Nine Days Thunder Tribulation Array, the huge explosion also attracted the attention of many nearby masters, and then the body of Wan Mo, the lord of the Ten Thousand Demon Caves, was found and Mo Tiancheng's disappearance became the biggest focus of the Demon Gate during this time. As for Xiao Hun, the owner of the Ecstasy Building, the lord of Bliss City, Yu Xiangrou, and the sect leader of the Poison Demon Sect, Tang Wencai, because they were not lightly injured, they have been sending people to block the news and retreat to heal their injuries recently, but there is no news coming out.
When Mo Qin arrived at the Absolute Valley and looked at the houses and palaces that had turned into ruins, a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes: "The Absolute Valley has become a ruin, and the life and death of my father-in-law are uncertain now, and I am afraid that it is also a bad luck ......."
On the same day, Mo Tiancheng was besieged by four Mahayana masters, and his body relied on the blood-soaked battle armor to support it to the limit, and now Mo Qin learned from some demon cultivators in the Demon Gate that there had been a huge explosion in the Valley of Absolute Darkness that day, and even caused the Lord of the Ten Thousand Demon Caves Wan Mo to fall and several other Mahayana masters were injured, although outsiders did not know what happened during the period, but some masters still found that the huge explosion was caused by the Nine Heavens Thunder Tribulation Array, according to Mo Tiancheng's physical state at the time, the body was highly poisonous and was soaked in blood armor to extract a large amount of blood, in the face of the huge power of the Nine Heavens Thunder Tribulation Array and four hostile Mahayana masters, the result must be more than auspicious。
"The reason why the Mo family has become like this is because of the Ecstasy Building!" Seeing Mo Qin's eclipses, the Second Elder and the Third Elder who came together couldn't help but shake their heads: "It's a pity that our strength is too weak to fight against the Ecstasy Building..."
The reason why the Mo family has become what it is today can be said to be mostly caused by the Ecstasy Building and several other demon forces, and the Ecstasy Building sent people to poison Mo Tiancheng, which put the Mo family in danger, so the Mo family's situation today is naturally inseparable from the Ecstasy Building.
The Second Elder, the Third Elder, and Mo Qin didn't know that the Great Elder Lu Zhong had taken refuge in the Ecstasy Tower, and the person who poisoned Mo Tiancheng was him, and when they were talking, they didn't notice the haze that flashed in Lu Zhong's eyes.
"Now that the whereabouts of my father-in-law are unknown, I think it's better to find my father-in-law first, and then think about how to deal with the Ecstasy Building. When a few people sighed, Mo Qin pondered for a moment and immediately made a plan, preparing to continue to search for Mo Tiancheng's whereabouts with several elders.
In this regard, the second elder and the third elder nodded without hesitation, and Lu Zhong did not object, and soon several people planned to leave this place with flying swords, however, at this moment, Lu Zhong's face became cloudy, looking at the second elder, the third elder and Mo Qin in front of him, and the murderous intent suddenly flashed in his eyes. The figure appeared behind the Second Elder in a flash, and immediately swung out a dry palm and hit the head of the Second Elder who was caught off guard.
The sudden change made Mo Qin and the third elder turn around immediately, but it was too late to make a move, and they watched in disbelief as the hand of the Great Elder Lu Zhong waved out, until the Second Elder's gaze suddenly fell into a daze, and the bright red blood stains that continued to ooze from his head flowed down his forehead, and then the whole person fell to the ground from the flying sword like a fallen leaf in the wind, Mo Qin woke up from the change, shook his head in disbelief, and suddenly looked at Lu Zhong angrily: "You... Why are you ......?"
"Now the people of the Mo family are cloudy after all, if Mo Qi was still there, how could they not see through me? Now the position between us should not need to be explained, right? In fact, the poison in the valley master was let me go down by the Ecstasy Tower!" Looking at the blood stains stained in his palm, Lu Zhong shook his head expressionlessly, and then his deep gaze turned to Mo Qin, who was full of horror: "Do you feel very hateful in your heart now, and even want to kill me immediately?" Maybe this hatred will make people crazy, but it is also a force that makes people stronger. ”
At this moment, Lu Zhong's actions could not be more obvious, the reason why Mo Qin would ask was really unbelievable in his heart, the great elder Lu Zhong, who had followed the birth and death of many heads of the Mo family and had managed the affairs of the Peerless Valley for many years, would actually poison his own people. Although, Lu Zhong's temper was a little strange on weekdays, Mo Qin never thought that one day Lu Zhong would turn against his own people.
"You used to be born and die with many heads of the Mo family, and you even carried Mo Qi's body back without fear of danger, but I didn't expect that now you have fallen to such a point, and you are even willing to betray the Mo family as a dog in the Ecstasy Building!" Gritting his teeth and cursing Lu Zhong fiercely, the three elders immediately protected Mo Qin behind him, looked at Lu Zhong very vigilantly, and then waved his palm, Mo Qin's body was quickly wrapped in a ball of light, and then flew away at a high speed, the third elder glanced at Mo Qin with a somewhat bitter face, and then sent out a divine sense into Mo Qin's mind: "Mo Qin, Lu Zhong is dragged by me, you quickly escape from here and tell the Mo family's clansmen about these things!"
Looking at Mo Qin, who was getting farther and farther away, the three elders turned around again and moved their gaze to Lu Zhong, and then their figures flashed, stopping Lu Zhong who wanted to chase him: "Your current opponent is me, don't want to hurt Mo Qin!"
As soon as the words fell, the three elders had already appeared in front of Lu Zhong, and then the figures of the two converged in an instant, and suddenly, a large area nearby was in the hands of the two, all of which were broken and the stone walls collapsed.
Lu Zhong at the peak of the tribulation and the three elders at the beginning of the tribulation, the difference in strength between the two sides was definitely not just a little bit, and soon, in the confrontation between the two, the three elders were knocked back again and again, and gradually showed signs of defeat. Not long after, Lu Zhong grabbed a flaw in the three elders, and his figure flashed behind the three elders, and immediately reached into a claw, the purple air flow was running, and for a while, Lu Zhong's right hand was as crystal clear as purple jade, cutting through the air and grabbing the three elders directly: "Remnant Demon Hand!
As soon as the three elders who reacted turned around, they looked at Lu Zhong's right hand like purple jade, and immediately knew that something was wrong, but it was too late to dodge, and in the end they could only be forced to block with their hands. At this moment, Lu Zhong's right claw was like lightning, and his trajectory was erratic, but there was no trace of wind, and he waved towards the three elders in an instant.
"Click!"
There was a sound of bones shattering, Lu Zhong's right claw was erratic, and he directly crushed the right wrist of the third elder from the right hand that was around the third elder, but the third elder only saw a purple phantom coming towards him, and he suddenly felt a terrible pain in his wrist, and at the same time, his consciousness gradually dissipated: "This... This is Moqi's... Remnant... Demon... Hands, so ......"
In the flash of a moment just now, Lu Zhong kept crushing the right wrist of the third elder, and directly pierced the heart of the third elder with his finger force, so fast that the third elder even saw a purple phantom passing by, and he no longer had a chance to resist. Blood flowed down from the hearts of the three elders, and the dilated pupils carried a strong unwillingness, and the three elders finally fell to the ground, dying, tasting the last surprising truth, and vaguely heard Lu Zhong's intermittent voice in his ears.
"I forgot to tell you, in fact, I once stole Mo Qi's remnant demon hand, and killed many descendants of masters who were my enemies. Looking at the three elders who were dying, Lu Zhong's eyes showed a trace of imperceptible fatigue: "Back then, the descendants of many masters in the Demon Gate were killed by the Remnant Demon Hand overnight, and everyone thought that it was done by Mo Qi, who created the Remnant Demon Hand, so later Mo Qi was besieged to death by a large number of masters, but who can know that their descendants were actually killed by me......"
After saying this, a cold light suddenly flashed in Lu Zhong's eyes, and his figure flashed and appeared in front of the three elders, and then his arm reached out like lightning again, directly crushing the neck of the dying third elder: "The road to the strong will always have to be sacrificed, either by others or by myself, and I just chose a different path, maybe I will be infamous if I do this, but those are not important to me!"
There was not the slightest emotion in his eyes, until the Second Elder and the Third Elder were killed, Lu Zhong's expression did not seem to fluctuate at all, as if he was used to ignoring people's life and death. After crushing the neck of the three elders, Lu Zhong immediately took out something from the Qiankun bag, and with a wave of his palm, two sarcophagi appeared in front of him, and then, Lu Zhong quickly put the bodies of the second elder and the third elder into the sarcophagus, and finally closed the coffin lid and put the two sarcophagi back into the Qiankun bag.
After doing this, Lu Zhong's figure flashed and went to chase Mo Qin, who had just escaped under the cover of the three elders. Lu Zhong, who was at the peak of the tribulation, and Mo Qin, who was only in the out-of-body period, had a huge gap in strength between the two sides, even if Mo Qin escaped a distance under the cover of the sacrifice of the three elders at the beginning, it was difficult to escape from Lu Zhong in such a short period of time.
Soon, Lu Zhong intercepted Mo Qin in front of a thick fog and a strange forest. On one side of this forest, there is a huge stone monument, on which are engraved three eye-catching dark red characters "No Return to the Forest".
In the cultivation realm, if a well-informed monk saw this stone tablet, he would definitely stop and not move forward, even if he was unrivaled in strength.
Because, this forest is said to be the Huangquan Road with no return, and there was even a defected elder of the Blood Demon Sect who entered this forest, and since then he has lost his trace and has never been seen again, and at that time, the elder's cultivation was already a rare opponent in the mortal world, and he had the strength of the peak of Mahayana.
At that time, the people who chased and killed him were also the strongest masters of the Bloody Demon Sect, but after tracking all the way and entering this forest, they were all like the defected elder, and never appeared again, and for many years afterward, the Blood Demon Sect continued to send disciples to this forest to look for it, and even planned to destroy this forest, but in the end, they all lost their wives and lost their troops, and the disciples who went in were gone, and those trees in the woods also seemed to be controlled by some powerful force, invulnerable, and had a strong recovery ability, even if the trunk was cut off, it would immediately return to its original state at a speed visible to the naked eye。 Even at a certain distance, these trees can absorb the spiritual power in the monk's body, releasing a gas that suppresses the operation of the spiritual power, which is used to restrain the monk, as if the existence of such a forest is inherently to restrain the monk.
In the face of such a strange Forest of No Return, in the end, even the Blood Demon Sect, the head of the Demon Gate, could only sigh and have to give up chasing and killing the elder. Now, Mo Qin has been forced to a desperate situation by Lu Zhong, and no further forward is no return to the forest.
On the one hand, there is no return to the forest, and on the other hand, Lu Zhong who chased and killed all the way, and in the end, Mo Qin still chose to flee into the forest of no return. And Lu Zhong could only watch Mo Qin flee in this regard, shook his head and did not continue to chase, and finally could only leave with an unwilling face. And not long after Lu Zhong left, two more figures slowly appeared in front of the non-return forest, and after a while, one of the figures finally spoke: "It seems that there is no problem with this Lu Zhong!"
After hearing this, another figure couldn't help but sneer: "Being in the Demon Gate, the strong are respected, those who know the times are handsome, and those who know how to analyze the situation and see the wind and turn the rudder are smart people, Mo Qi back then was too ignorant of current affairs, although he was qualified, but in the end there was only a dead end!"
After saying this, the two figures flashed away again, chasing in the direction that Lu Zhong left. When Lu Zhong forced Mo Qin into the Forest of No Return, Zhao Zhen's refining of the Heaven Snatching Pill had already begun to enter the final stage, just waiting to refine dozens of pills into one, and then integrate the Yuan Spirit of a powerful demon beast into the pill as a pill spirit, until the Heaven Snatching Pill was finally refined. The four-rank alchemists who were invited here, after some discussion, finally began to implement the next plan.
The next refining will last at least a month, and just fusing dozens of high-grade pills will require a long process, and being able to complete it within a month is already a great achievement.
And Liu Changsheng is not without things, in addition to providing the medicinal materials of the alchemists present at any time, the other major thing left is to solve the demon beast's Yuan Spirit. According to the discussion of the alchemists, if you want to refine the best quality Heaven Snatching Pill, you must have a Mahayana peak python spirit of the primordial spirit.
The captured demon beast is a Jiao that is almost about to take shape, and the body is a huge poisonous python, which has been cultivated for nearly thousands of years, and its body is already extremely close to Jiaolong, and there are even two horn-like protrusions on its head, and it is only one step away from flying in the day. Even with Liu Changsheng's ability, it was with the cooperation of many masters of the Immortal Alliance, and it took a lot of effort to capture it, and for this reason, even the two early Mahayana protectors of the Immortal Alliance were still recuperating from their injuries for a long time.
The most important thing in the Heaven Snatching Pill is this demon beast Yuan Spirit, which is the powerful Yuan Spirit that acts as the Heaven Snatching Pill Spirit. Now the treatment of this poisonous Jiao needs Liu Changsheng to cooperate with the alchemists to complete it. In terms of deciding how to extract the poison Jiao Yuan Ling, Deng Chao of Danding Gate took the lead in proposing to hit the poison Jiao hard first, and then extract the Yuan Ling into the pill, and finally refine it into the Heaven Winning Pill. In this regard, none of the alchemists present denied this method, after all, the poisonous Jiao captured by Liu Changsheng already had the strength of the peak of Mahayana, if it was not severely damaged and exhausted the spiritual power of the poisonous Jiao, I am afraid that in the process of alchemy, the poisonous Jiao would desperately resist, which would increase the difficulty of refining the Heaven Snatching Pill. However, as soon as Deng Chao's method was proposed, Zhao Zhen on one side was questioned.
"Do you want to consume this poisonous Jiao until the spiritual power is exhausted, and then extract the Yuan Spirit?" Zhao Jian was already a bystander at this time, and the rest of the matter had nothing to do with him, but after he heard this practice, he still couldn't help but question: "This kind of practice, doesn't it make the Poison Jiao Yuan Spirit weak and powerless?"
"Ignorant junior, if you don't hit the poison Jiao hard and make it prostrate and powerless, then the Yuan Spirit of the alchemy poison Jiao will resist desperately, it will greatly increase the difficulty of alchemy!" Deng Chao, who was a little complacent about proposing this method, immediately frowned when he heard Zhao Zhen's words, and was not polite to Zhao Zhen at all, and directly ridiculed Zhao Zhen's questioning: "Do you really think that you can refine the Heaven Snatching Pill with a little alchemy technique?" Or is it that the combined knowledge of these four-grade alchemists here is not as good as your little Jindan junior?" ”
As for the method proposed by Deng Chao to deal with the poison Jiao Yuan Ling, it was also tacitly accepted by all the alchemists present. After all, the poisonous Jiao was already a super demon beast that was close to soaring, and the strength of the Yuan Spirit was not something that the alchemists present could control. The primordial spirit of such a powerful demon beast is different from those non-offensive elixirs, once it is not well controlled, not only will the refining of the Heaven Snatching Pill fail, but the alchemist will also be counterattacked by the demon beast primordial spirit, which will be seriously injured at least and killed at worst, which is really extremely dangerous.
If you want to complete the refining of the Heaven Snatching Pill, the Poison Jiao Yuan Spirit can't have a little problem, severely damage the Poison Jiao and consume the Poison Jiao's spiritual power until it is weak, and the Poison Jiao Yuan Spirit in this state is the easiest to control. Moreover, it is necessary to grasp the degree of weakness, not to be stronger than the alchemists present, and at the same time, not to be too weak, resulting in a lack of ferocity.
"Since it is called the Heaven Snatching Pill, this word Heaven Snatching Pill, it must not be something that a weak Yuan Spirit can do, right?" Regarding Deng Chao's reason, Zhao Zhen frowned and said his reason: "Although the younger generation doesn't know how to refine the Heaven Snatching Pill, he can also imagine it. The integrated primordial spirit is not strong enough, how can it take on this responsibility of seizing the sky?"
