The person who came was tall, comparable to the troll clan, the skin on his body was chapped like a long-drought rock, his hands and feet were strange, his facial features were very open, and he looked a little strange, only a piece of animal skin was encircled around his waist, and the overall image revealed a strong primitive atmosphere.

"Stone Demon Clan?" Xiao Yufan was also taken aback when he suddenly saw someone coming, he had really never seen anyone from the Stone Demon Clan in his life.

It's not that he is lonely and unheard, but the number of the Stone Demon Clan is scarce, and he has never liked to show his head, looking at the five domains of the Demon Realm, I am afraid that the total population of the Stone Demon Clan will not exceed 10,000.

Tuo Qianli grinned and showed a friendly smile, and said in a hoarse voice unique to the Stone Demon Clan: "Xiao Daoyou, I have something I want to ask you for help, this is the reward I am going to give you, you can take a look at it first." ”

I didn't come to ask for a team, and I prepared a reward for asking myself to help in advance.

Hearing this, Xiao Yufan was not in a hurry to refuse, out of curiosity about the Stone Demon Clan, he took the storage bag handed by Tuo Qianli and swept it into his divine sense.

There was only one item in the storage bag, which was a translucent flying sword as amber in color, and there was a faint glow flowing on it, which was obviously an extraordinary magic weapon.

Tuo Qianli on the side said in a timely manner: "The name of this flying sword is 'Chongxia', its quality is between blue and purple, it is an ancestral thing of Tuo, and I hope Xiao Daoyou can accept it." ”

Among the magic weapons, the purple product is the highest.

Especially for the Flying Sword and the like, because its refining process is more complex than most magic weapons, the value of the Purple Flying Sword is also much higher than that of the Purple Magic Weapon next to it.

Xiao Yufan's ability to distinguish the good and bad of magic weapons originated from Tianxingzi, which was naturally extraordinary, but his divine sense swept over, and he tried to infuse a trace of true yuan power into the flying sword, which immediately verified that what Tuo Qianli said was true.

To be honest, this is definitely an extremely high reward, and it is also something that Xiao Yufan urgently needs at the moment, after all, he has not had a single weighing weapon available so far.

"This is the family heirloom of Brother Tuo, so he gave me as a reward, presumably the things entrusted by Brother Tuo are not simple. ”

Xiao Yufan returned the storage bag to Tuo Qianli with a smile on his face, neither agreed nor refused, and asked lightly.

Tuo Qianli showed a smile that was better than crying and couldn't see where to go, causing some stone chips to scrape off his face, and shook his head vigorously and said: "This matter should be very simple for Xiao Daoyou, I want to ask Xiao Daoyou to protect the Dharma for me for three days in the Nine Tribulations Medicine Realm." ”

"Protecting the Dharma for three days?"

Xiao Yufan's eyes showed a trace of doubt, and he said directly: "Isn't it that Brother Tuo has provoked some powerful person who wants to be unfavorable to you in the Nine Tribulation Medicine Realm?" Or do you want to impact the early stage of foundation building in the Nine Tribulation Medicine Realm?"

Hearing this, Tuo Qianli hesitated for a moment, but finally confessed, and said with the secret method of sound transmission: "Neither, I want to find a spiritual vein in the Nine Tribulations Medicine Realm and take it out." ”

Suddenly hearing the word "spiritual vein", Xiao Yufan couldn't help but shake his body, the spiritual vein is the root of the production of spirit crystals, and there are four grades: extreme, upper, middle, and lower, even if it is the lower grade spirit vein at the very end, it also contains tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of spirit crystals.

Often, a single spiritual vein can support a small and medium-sized power sect for thousands of years, which shows how precious a spiritual vein is.

While his mind was racing, Xiao Yufan said suspiciously: "Brother Tuo told me the news of the spiritual veins contained in the Nine Tribulations Medicine Realm so bluntly, aren't you worried?"

Tuo Qianli seemed to have been prepared, and when he heard Xiao Yufan's question, he immediately spread his hands and said: "I have already learned about Burning Invincible, Situ Yue, Jiang Annihilation, Tu Jue, and Xiao Daoyou, you are the five powerhouses of the same level who were bullied in the Dharma Fighting Conference at the beginning, and you are the most likely to agree to help me protect the Fa and keep it a secret for me." ”

"Reason?" Xiao Yufan spat out the word lightly.

"You are the only casual cultivator among the five, I am also a casual cultivator, your character seems to be good, and if I want to fulfill the last wish of my ancestors, I can't find a second person who may help me besides you. ”

Referring to the "family ancestor's last wish", Tuo Qianli's pale yellow eyes revealed a trace of pride and firmness, and he looked at Xiao Yufan with sincerity and said: "If I choose the wrong person, I also admit it, my generation can't fulfill the ancestor's last wish, then leave it to the next generation of Tuo family children to complete, and one day, the hidden spiritual vein in the Nine Tribulations Medicine Realm will be revealed." ”

Xiao Yufan's ability to recognize people and things has been honed after eight years of searching for wasteland, and after some exchanges and Q&A, he can roughly determine that this Tuo Qianli is not looking for him with the idea of fraud.

After pondering for a while, Xiao Yufan habitually touched the dark ring on his index finger, and said, "Tell me the real reason for protecting the Dharma for you for three days, and I will consider your proposal." ”

Tuo Qianli's stone face full of cracks showed a little excitement, this guy is a sincere person, seeing that Xiao Yufan had already agreed, he actually passed on the sound for more than half an hour, and told him a lot about the reason why he came to ask Xiao Yufan for help, plus the causes and consequences, and almost didn't tell the latter what color diapers he wore when he was a child.

To put it simply, this Tuo Qianli comes from the only remaining stone demon tribe in the northern region of the demon world, and there was once a very remarkable ancestor on the ancestor, who is known as the ancestor of the stone demon clan who has traveled hundreds of millions of miles in the northern region and explored thousands of spiritual veins in the world.

But that was tens of thousands of years ago, there is no long-lasting family in the world, the extension of the family to the generation of Tuo Qianli, long gone, look at Tuo Qianli has already been over thirty years old, but it is still only a half-step foundation cultivation, it can explain everything.

The afterglow of that Tuojia ancestor has been passed down to this day, and all that remains is a map containing the distribution of spiritual veins that have not been collected in the Northern Regions, and it was only discovered a thousand years ago.

Because of their age, these spiritual veins that were not collected tens of thousands of years ago are now owned by owners.

Tuo Qianli's ancestors have been searching for more than a thousand years in the Northern Regions, from generation to generation, as shown in the map, almost all over the territory of hundreds of millions of miles in the Northern Regions, but in the end the result is empty joy.

All the ownerless spiritual veins of the past have now been spent by others.

For this reason, the unwilling ancestors of the Tuo family made a testament before their deaths, unless the heirs of the Tuo family one day find any spiritual veins according to the distribution map of the spiritual veins left by the ancestors, he should smile at Jiuquan, otherwise he will not be blind.

Passed on to Tuo Qianli's generation, he specialized in the spiritual veins recorded on the ancestral spiritual vein distribution map and hidden in various secret realms.

This time the Nine Tribulations Medicine Realm was opened, and according to the distribution map of the spiritual veins left by the ancestors, there should be a lower-grade spiritual vein among them.

Moreover, Tuo Qianli had every reason to believe that this spiritual vein had not been collected, after all, the Nine Tribulations Medicine Realm was only opened for Qi Gathering Stage cultivators.

And if you want to collect a spiritual vein during the Qi Gathering Period, unless it is the Tuo family, even other stone demon clans who are good at exploring the spirit vein will definitely not be able to do this.

Exploring the soul and taking the pulse is the ancestral secret technique of the Tuo family, which has many doorways and restrictions, and it is really helpless to find Xiao Yufan for thousands of miles.

It's easy to say that this step is good, but when it comes to taking the pulse, it will cause a lot of movement.

And it takes a long time, if there is no one to protect the Dharma, let alone successfully collect the spiritual vein, just because of the huge movement created when the pulse is taken, the idle people and so on are enough to make Tuo Qianli achieve nothing, and even fall.

In fact, even if he found Xiao Yufan as his protector, Tuo Qianli was only forty percent sure that he would finally be able to receive the low-grade spiritual vein hidden in the Nine Tribulations Medicine Realm.

But in this regard, Tuo Qianli is very content.

Taking the storage bag containing "Chongxia" and a communication bead, Xiao Yufan watched Tuo Qianli's figure disappear into the distance, and muttered to himself: "A quasi-purple flying sword, for its three days of protection, this deal is not a loss"

Then, Xiao Yufan looked at the space secret door that was slightly dilapidated not far away, but the source was full of mysterious vicissitudes of ancient aura, and a strange glint flashed in his eyes: I am more and more looking forward to entering the Nine Tribulations Medicine Realm, and I have a feeling that the opportunity for me to build a foundation is in it.
