"Okay, you don't need to do any work on this elixir. After it dissolves, the power of the medicine will travel through all the veins in your body on its own. Looking at you like this, how could I harm you?"
After confirming that Qingyun had really taken the pill, Lao Shitou nodded with satisfaction.
However, although the young master quickly clasped his fists and thanked him, the more he looked at this old boy who liked to show off, the more unhappy he became:
"I don't know if you will harm me."
Fortunately, with the Purple Gold Poison Pill, ordinary toxins are nothing to Qingyun, and he is not afraid of the other party actually poisoning him.
And since he cultivated the Immortal True Spirit, Qingyun's physical strength has far exceeded before. In addition to his recovery ability becoming more exaggerated, his control over the entire body seems to be described by the words "like an arm and a finger" .
Just like when he faced Lao Shitou before, he could twist his body to an incredible degree to avoid the opponent's sword light, which was simply impossible for ordinary monks.
After all, monks, at least monks in the human world who have not yet completely escaped the shackles of the physical body, cannot ignore certain objective rules.
Therefore, the strange physique brought to him by the Immortal True Spirit instantly distributed the medicinal properties of the elixir evenly throughout his body. On the surface, Qingyun remained calm, but in his heart, he was extremely shocked by the elixir.
"Pure the mind and strengthen the body, increase muscles and nourish Qi, strengthen the foundation and cultivate the vitality, remove the hair and cleanse the marrow..."
It's not that this elixir is of high grade or powerful, but that this elixir actually incorporates so many basic medicinal properties. Little did we know that 90% of the elixirs in the world have only one medicinal property.
Being able to fuse so many basic medicinal effects without conflict, and even condense them into elixirs, Qingyun believed that it was impossible for him now. Even ordinary sects should not be able to produce elixirs of this quality.
Thinking of this, the young master couldn't help but become more curious about the origin of Lao Shitou.
"Okay, let's make it even. Don't blame me for attacking you."
Old Shitou certainly didn't know the shock in Qingyun's heart. He waved his hand and looked cool, but this action made Qingyun furious. He couldn't help but said in a strange way:
"Old Shi's words are serious, how dare this junior?"
Actually, what Lao Shitou said is the truth, but my Qilin Devour is too magical, and after ten years of combining the Immortal True Spirit with the spiritual power and sleeping for ten years, the slight toxicity of the accumulated ancient spiritual energy has long been eliminated.
As for the other monks, not to mention Yao Pofeng and the others, even Bai Zhi encountered a situation where the two spiritual energies collided with each other and caused the power to be blocked when he returned to Kyushu. Therefore, it is normal for Lao Shitou to feel this way.
However, when the other party mentioned the Spiritual Mirror Sacrifice, Qingyun suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind and said in surprise:
"Old Shi, are you from Qingxu Heaven?"
At these words, Lao Shitou was slightly startled, and then said in surprise:
"Huh? Where did you know that?"
"I saw Yuan Anchu, the elder of Qingxutian, at the Spirit Mirror Festival. His swordsmanship is very similar to the charm of the move you used earlier. It seems to be called..."
"Qingxu Suoyue."
"Exactly, then you..."
Qingxu Tianqingyun was still very resistant to Qingxu Tianqingyun, and he couldn't help but become wary.
"Of course not. There are thousands of avenues, all leading to the same destination. Moreover, Qingxu Tian has been in charge of Liangzhou for tens of millions of years. It is normal for us to have some of the charm of his swordsmanship."
Old Shitou lowered his head and picked up a wild fruit on the ground and said softly.
"Oh, I see."
"Well, by the way, listening to what you said, are you the last one to come out of the Spiritual Mirror Sacrifice?"
"That's right, but I passed out later and when I woke up, I was back in Kyushu. I don't know what happened in the end."
Qingyun said half-truthfully, intending to expose it.
To his surprise, Lao Shitou did not continue to ask, but slowly chatted with him about his daily life, and even about the magic sword of the heavens with ancient aura. He seemed not to be interested at all, but was more curious about Qingyun's experience.
The two of them just chatted about each other for a long time, and actually drank most of the wine in the master's treasure bag.
From the subsequent conversation, Qingyun learned that Lao Shitou was also a native of Liangzhou and was in charge of an unknown third-rate sect near Qiyuan City.
"The leader of a third-rate sect can actually have such a strong aura of awe in his swordsmanship, and the elixir may be as valuable as the Nine Death Pill. Is what this old stone said the truth? "
Qingyun silently thought in his heart that after all, this old boy didn't tell him his real name except his surname, so he still preferred Lao Shitou and should have some reservations.
Just thinking of this, the young master suddenly felt that he was too serious, because he himself had many unknown secrets, and Lao Shitou had no reason to be honest with him until he was naked.
"Isn't the Wangu-ryu's broken hatchet also a magic weapon? The Bamboo and Stone Sword Sect has spread to his sect, which may not be as good as the old stone."
Qingyun thought dumbly.
Because he is tired of dealing with the various whirlpools in the sect and the pressure from the outside world, this old boy goes out every year to relax, and Yiren Mountain is his usual place.
"Old Shi, why did you choose this place?"
Seeing the morning sun gradually peeking out from the horizon, Qingyun asked without leaving a trace.
"I said that ghosts and gods are causing trouble, do you believe it?"
"Do not believe."
"Haha, I mainly heard that although this place is close to the realm of the demon clan, there are few disturbances for some reason, so I often practice cultivation here."
"I see."
Nodding, Qingyun then said:
"Actually, it's not peaceful here either. The Liangren Village at the foot of the mountain was a place I used to go to when I was a child. Isn't it now reduced to scorched earth for more than ten years?"
Hearing what the young master said, Old Shitou moved his three long beards and said:
"It seems that the monks did it, but according to the news from Qianzhong City, for some reason the truth has never been found."
"Well, I have been tracking it for many years, but there are only a few clues."
"Could it be the demon clan that did it?"
"No, Alian's status in the demon clan is not low. She also helped me investigate. It should be the work of humans."
Qingyun shook his head, but Old Shitou also shook his head:
"The world is undergoing great changes, not to mention you and me. Even the high-ranking Gui Lingjing monks are sometimes confused. Moreover, wars are frequent here. There are many people who want to seize the chestnuts from the fire, not to mention the aliens who want to destroy me in the heart of Kyushu. Unless they die, they can do anything."
"Taking chestnuts from the fire? Oh, Mr. Shi, it's not me. I have lived here for more than ten years, and I have never seen any monsters come to burn, kill, and loot. On the contrary, our refugees have starved to death in countless numbers, and I heard that most of them go to the hinterland of the monsters to do evil. Are they all humans?”
Qingyun's words immediately gave Old Man Shi a pause, and he continued:
"And I have also been to Qiyuan City. Although you are not a monk from Qingxu Tian, I believe you should have some understanding of what those people are like, not to mention the pressure and whirlpool of your sect. I'm afraid not all of them are. Was it a reward from Qingxu Heaven?"
"snort!"
Having said this, Old Man Shi snorted coldly at first, and then lowered his head. He didn't know what troublesome things Qingyun's words made him think of.
"Old Shi, you seem to be quite prejudiced against the demon clan?"
Qingyun drained the last sip of wine from the bowl and asked curiously.
"really."
Old Man Shi admitted very thoroughly.
"What, do you have a grudge against the demon clan?"
"We will die together."
Old Man Shi said these four words very calmly, but in Qingyun's ears, they really sounded like they contained unforgettable hatred.
"Can you say no?"
"cannot."
"Forget it."
"Hey, I said you kid can't comfort me?"
"How can I comfort you if you don't tell me?"
Although this old guy is particularly unpleasant to look at, after a night of boasting, he actually likes to argue with the other party.
"Does it count to kill your wife and destroy your family?"
"Uh... I'm sorry, senior, I..."
As soon as he heard this, Qingyun immediately knew that he had just met Lang. Looking at the figure who was still very young but looked old, he quickly apologized repeatedly.
"It's not that serious to lie to you."
"Hi, I said..."
"Boy, can't you be polite to me?"
"Yes, yes, Mr. Shi, please tell me."
Everyone's suffering is different, big or small, but the essence of the suffering is the same. They are all cruelties that are unbearable but have to be faced.
As always, Old Shitou did not mention the "third-rate sect" he mentioned, but according to him, although there are many masters and disciples in his sect, there are more, older, and more powerful Xuan Gong techniques. On top of a treasure.
But not long after Lao Shitou took over the leadership of the sect, a handsome guy from the demon clan appeared. He kidnapped the girl who was guarding the baby, stole his skills, and even completely controlled the sect's inheritance for a time, which almost caused them to lose their incense. .
How could Lao Shitou, who looked upright and had a strong sense of responsibility, endure this?
But seeing that Little Sister Bao was devoted to her, and even pregnant with a bastard, Lao Shitou couldn't blame her easily, so in the end he could only vent his anger on the demon clan.
Later, they were still monsters.
His wife is also a high-level monk. For some reason, a powerful monster destroyed her body and captured her spirit. She used this as a threat and made him do many things he didn't want to do.
Although these things were not harmful, they caused him great pain.
The demon clan leader saw this and knew that he would not abandon the sect, so he kept asking him to do things that did not seem to violate the principles but were unacceptable, which made Lao Shitou feel very tortured. It was miserable.
In addition, as he said, the demon tribe was originally driven into the Shiwan Mountain from Kyushu. If they said they didn't want to come back, they would definitely be hiding their ears. But once they come back, they will definitely compete with the human monks for cultivation resources, and their blood will probably flow like a river. It's inevitable.
Zong Qiyuan City is located in the middle of Liangzhou, but Liangzhou, as the largest state bordering the Monster Clan, has borne the brunt and become the first line of defense against the aliens. Lao Shitou's worries are not entirely unfounded.
Therefore, with the torment in his heart and the heavy burden on his shoulders, it was somewhat understandable that he would hate the alien Qingyun so much, and he believed what he said before and thought of going out to relax.
"Old Shi, is there no way to rescue your wife? Isn't it possible that the powerful demon clan is still a demon cultivator in the Wind Control Realm or even the Spiritual Mirror?"
Qingyun tried to ask.
"Well, it's possible. The other party is too strong, and I'm trying to avoid it. There's nothing I can do about it."
Lao Shitou sighed deeply, his words full of sorrow and helplessness, which formed a strong contrast with his tough appearance and the temperament of a man of power.
