After refining the last two Golden Marrow Pills, nearly two months had passed. Xu Jin had completely stabilized the realm of the ninth order of the Soul Condensation Period, and it was estimated that it would not be long before he was ready to break through to the tenth order.

Xu Jin went to Sanssouci Gufang City again and exchanged the Fire Spirit Stone for some necessary materials and pills. This time when he went to Sanssouci Valley, Xu Jin was very cautious and made sure that no one was following him, so he rushed back to the Nine Shadows Sect.

For Yan Zhong, the top-level cultivator of the Corpse Sect who coveted him, Xu Jin was doubly careful.

It is not a pleasant thing to be remembered by a monk who is several realms higher than himself.

Fortunately, now is not the time when Sanssouci Valley Fang City is opened, and Yan Zhong can't stay in Sanssouci Valley every day, just wait for him Xu Jin to come.

After returning to the Nine Shadows Sect, Xu Jin used the Lieyang Pill as the main material, and according to the method taught by the old man Tianchuan, he dissolved the Lieyang Pill and refined the Little Lieyang Pill. Relatively speaking, refining the Lieyang Pill into a small Lieyang Pill is relatively difficult, and with the experience of refining the Golden Marrow Pill last time, the success rate has been greatly improved. Xu Jin refined a total of twenty Lieyang Pills and refined ninety-six Little Lieyang Pills.

This achievement made Xu Jin overjoyed.

With this batch of pills, Xu Jin will not be too difficult to break through to the tenth order of the Soul Condensation Stage in the near future.

Last time he refined the Golden Marrow Pill, Xu Jin also left half a agave plant.

Agave is the main material for refining the "Soul Cleansing Pill", and the Soul Cleansing Pill is the elixir that breaks through the bottleneck of the soul training period. After Xu Jin cultivated to the peak of the tenth order of the Soul Condensation Period, the Purifying Pill was already useful.

Of course, he is now among the top ten disciples of the Nine Shadows Sect, and the sect has high hopes for them. When the top ten disciples begin to hit the bottleneck, the sect will also give them the pill to take. However, relatively speaking, the color of the agave used in the marrow washing pill refined by the sect must not be as good as the agave picked by Xu Jin in the Fallen Spirit Yuan in the land of Xuanyin. The stronger the agave spirit surname, the better the effect of the refined marrow cleansing pill.

This half of the agave was deliberately left by Xu Jin.

With a large number of pills, Xu Jin concentrated on his cultivation, taking the Little Lieyang Pill and the Soul Condensing Pill every day, and constantly enhancing his cultivation.

Originally, Xu Jin intended to delve into the way of formation prohibition, but the old man Tianchuan reminded him that it was a critical moment and he should not be distracted. You should concentrate on cultivating and strive to advance as soon as possible. As for the other methods, we can leave them for later. After the advanced soul training period, there will be a relatively flat period for the growth of cultivation, and it will take a period of time to stabilize the realm. At that time, it was not too late to delve into the way of formation prohibition.

Xu Jin thought so.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Xu Jin to cultivate to the peak state of the ninth order of the Soul Condensation Stage, and he was ready to hit the bottleneck.

At this time, Xu Jin, who was meditating cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes.

It felt like someone was flying towards his cave.

As his cultivation grew, Xu Jin's divine power continued to strengthen.

"Is Senior Nephew Xu here?"

As soon as Xu Jin received the exercises, a slightly arrogant voice came from outside the cave from the monk surnamed Zhongjingtang.

Xu Jin's eyebrows raised slightly, and then he said respectfully: "Disciple to meet Uncle An." Uncle Shi, please come in!"

Xu Jin took out the token, the prohibition at the entrance of the cave was immediately opened, and the monk surnamed An walked in slowly, his eyes swept Xu Jin, and a look of surprise appeared on his face, and said: "I haven't seen you for a few months, and the cultivation of Master Xu's nephew has improved again. ”

At the time of the big competition, Xu Jinshang was just an ordinary ninth-order cultivator, and now he had reached his peak state, and he could break through to the tenth-order realm at any time. In just a few months, with such courage and diligence, it is no wonder that the monk surnamed An was surprised.

Xu Jin bowed down and said, "Thank you Uncle for the compliment!

The monk surnamed An sat down at the stone table with a smirk on his face, and said, "Is Senior Nephew Xu still satisfied with this cave mansion?"

Xu Jin hurriedly said: "I have received a lot of care from my uncle, and my disciple is very satisfied with this cave." ”

The monk surnamed An nodded and said, "Senior nephew Xu, do you know why I came to your cave today?"

Xu Jin's heart jumped, but his face was very calm, and he said, "Please teach Uncle Shi!"

"Hehe, I won't hide it from you, I came here today just for the fire spirit stone on your body. ”

The monk surnamed An said indifferently, his eyes fixed on Xu Jin, and his expression was very stern.

Xu Jin was startled again, bowed down, and said, "Forgive the disciple for being foolish, Uncle Shi, please speak clearly!"

"Hehe, Senior Nephew Xu, everyone understands people, there is no need to beat around the bush. This seat is very curious, I don't know where did Master Xu's nephew get these high-grade fire spirit stones? Such high-grade fire spirit stones, produced within tens of thousands of miles in the land of Xuanyin, are very rare. ”

The monk surnamed An said without hesitation.

Xu Jin didn't expect that the monk surnamed An also knew about it. It seems that while communicating between the two worlds can make you a windfall, it can also lead to unprovoked disasters. First it was Yan Zhong of the Corpse Sect, and now even the head of the sect has come to the door.

"May I ask Uncle Shi, if the disciple is not mistaken, Uncle Shi is not practicing the Huo surname exercises?"

Xu Jin did not directly answer the question of the monk surnamed An, but asked rhetorically.

The monk surnamed An suddenly lowered his face and said very unhappily: "Senior nephew Xu, this seat is asking you! Have you forgotten the rules of the sect?"

Although the rules of the Nine Shadows Sect are not very harsh, they are not relaxed, especially the order of the elders and the young, which is relatively strict. When the elder asks questions, the younger disciples must answer truthfully. Otherwise, it is disrespectful to the elder, and the elder can teach the rude disciple a lesson.

Xu Jin couldn't help frowning secretly.

It's really hard to deal with.

"Uncle Hui, the disciple did get some high-grade fire spirit stones, which were obtained from the monks of other sects in the land of Xuanyin. ”

Xu Jin replied quietly. This is also a pretext that he has thought of a long time ago. Only by pushing everything to the place of Xuanyin can we block other people's mouths. After all, there is no proof of death.

The monk surnamed An looked up to the sky and laughed loudly and said, "Senior nephew Xu, your lie is too ridiculous. The monks who entered the land of Xuanyin were all junior disciples of various sects. Who has the magnanimity to carry so many top-grade fire spirit stones on their bodies? Even the soul cultivation stage cultivators of various sects who specialize in cultivating the fire surname exercises, and even the seniors of the body gathering stage, it is difficult to come up with these many high-grade fire spirit stones. Senior nephew Xu, do you know what will happen if you deceive your elders?"

Xu Jin smiled and asked rhetorically, "Senior Uncle Qiqi, what the disciple said is the truth. If it wasn't from the land of Xuanyin, where else did Uncle Shi think the disciples could get these fire spirit stones?"

The monk surnamed An couldn't help but be speechless.

To tell the truth, the monk surnamed An was also very curious about the origin of Xu Jin's fire spirit stones. He was very aware of Xu Jin's situation, it had only been more than ten years since he stepped into the cultivation realm, and before that, in order to prepare for the Great Competition in the Xuanyin Land, the Nine Shadows Sect had placed a ban on all the registered disciples to prevent them from breaking away from the control of the sect. If you leave the sect for too long, more than half a month, this prohibition will occur immediately, and that will be the end of the soul. In fact, it was impossible for Xu Jin to go far away. In addition to the unexpected adventures in the land of Xuanyin, the monk surnamed An couldn't think of any other possibilities.

But the monk surnamed An also found it hard to believe that the disciples of other sects would carry so many fire spirit stones into the land of Xuanyin.

Hundreds of high-grade fire spirit stones, even for a monk in the Gathering Period, are a small amount of wealth.

"Senior nephew Xu, in this way, you have an unexpected adventure in the land of Xuanyin? This is really the first time I have heard of the land of Xuanyin being able to produce high-grade fire spirit stones. ”

The monk surnamed An said suspiciously.

Xu Jin smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Hui, these fire spirit stones are indeed not produced in the land of Xuanyin, but from a disciple of the Black Mountain Sect. The situation in the land of Xuanyin, Uncle Shi also knows, the yin is extremely cold, and he can only produce fire spirit stones. ”

"What is the surname of the disciple of the Black Mountain Sect?"

Xu Jin smiled bitterly: "This disciple really doesn't know. Everyone fights for life and death in the land of Xuanyin, and basically they don't ask about this. ”

"Hehe, Senior Nephew Xu, push everything on the head of the Black Mountain Sect, it's really a clever plan, and there is no proof of death!"

The monk surnamed An said nonchalantly, still a little unconvinced.

In the previous big competition, the disciples of the Black Mountain Sect were all wiped out, and none of them came out alive, and it was very clean on their heads.

Xu Jin Zhengse said: "Uncle Qiyu, what the disciple said is true, please Uncle Mingjian." ”

The monk surnamed An sneered and said, "Whether it's true or not, let's take a look at it slowly...... Senior nephew Xu, no matter where your fire spirit stone comes from, this seat will not delve into it. Give me as many fire spirit stones as you have. Don't worry, I won't ask you for nothing. Will definitely give you a satisfactory price. ”

"I'm really sorry, this is going to disappoint Uncle Shi. These fire spirit stones, the disciples have all exchanged them for those shops in Sanssouci Valley Fang City...... The disciple didn't know that Uncle Shi needed these spirit stones, and if he had known about it, he would definitely have given his filial piety to Uncle Shi!"

Xu Jin said with a very apologetic expression.

In fact, there are still a lot of fire spirit stones left that he exchanged from the Pure Yang Realm. However, Xu Jin really didn't like the face of the monk surnamed An, and no matter how many fire spirit stones there were, it had nothing to do with him.

The monk surnamed An was furious, slapped the stone table heavily, and shouted angrily: "Xu Jin, you don't want to toast and eat and drink! How dare you be so rude as a junior disciple?"

The sturdy stone table shattered into powder in an instant.

Xu Jin retreated, concentrating on guard, his face did not move, and said, "Why did Uncle Shi say this?

"Hehe, Xu Jin, are you a three-year-old child? You really deserve to be Yang Tianhong's disciple, and the master and apprentice are extremely deceitful. Hmph, but for now, if you want to fool the past, you have to ask me if I agree!"

Brother An said gloomily.

"Uncle Qiyu, the rules of the door are clear, the younger disciples must not be disobedient to the elders, and the elders are not allowed to punish the disciples in the door at will. It must be that this rule is clearer than that of the disciple, right?"

Xu Jin was not afraid.

"Hey, what a sharp mouth. It's a pity that the cultivation realm is not a place to reason. If I don't teach you a good lesson, you really don't know how thick the sky is!"
