"arrive."
A man and a woman stopped in front of an ethereal spiritual palace.
He rushed to Tiansang Ling Palace without stopping because Xu Xiaoshou also felt that it was not long before the White Cave was opened.
In this Tiansang City alchemist assessment, strictly speaking, Xu Xiaoshou failed extremely.
He only got a tenth-grade alchemist badge.
Even if he wanted to prove his strength again at the dinner party, he was banned because of Chairman Shiti's cowardice, thus losing this opportunity.
"pity."
Xu Xiaoshou sighed.
But from another level, he felt that he had indeed achieved his other goals once he went there.
Not only did he get a spot in the White Grotto on his own, he even learned the relevant information about the White Grotto in advance.
Even the "Tian Cardinal Disk" and Xu Xiaoji were automatically sent to his Yuan Mansion inexplicably.
Unbelievable!
"Go in, first go to Lingzang Pavilion to find Old Man Sang."
Xu Xiaoshou was exhausted, but he still didn't dare to rest immediately.
Mr. Sang’s words are still fresh in my memory.
He even dared not forget the instruction to return before the White Cave opened.
After all, the old man was not a good person. If something happened, it was possible that he might have been treated as lard.
Mu Zixi nodded and followed Xu Xiaoshou's pace.
…
Lingzang Pavilion.
The familiar large bathtub was still there, and the miscellaneous medicine bottles on the alchemy cabinet were still scattered, but the man was nowhere to be seen.
"Not here?"
Xu Xiaoshou was slightly surprised.
Since Mr. Sang was not here, he really didn't know where to find someone.
"letter?"
Mu Zixi was wandering around boredly with dark circles under her eyes. Suddenly she saw a letter on the alchemy cabinet, and her spirit was shaken.
"A little inspiration."
When she saw the three words at the bottom, the little girl's face froze, and she immediately covered it with her little hand, trying to pick up the envelope.
Xu Xiaoshou was one step faster than it and snatched it away.
"I want to see it too." Mu Zixi raised her pretty face.
"I can't say it was a whisper that the old man told me. I'll show it to you after I've finished reading it."
Xu Xiaoshou chuckled.
He knew that Mr. Sang never did anything meaningless.
Maybe leaving this letter means that he has probably left the spiritual palace temporarily.
Otherwise, if it's a big deal, can't we just say it in person?
Why even leave a message?
And that damn old man, I have to say, does have some secrets about him.
Sometimes, some secrets may not be of great benefit to those who know them, and may even have the opposite result.
Junior sister...
Well, let’s just be a fool!
"snort!"
Mu Zixi was so angry that she stamped her foot, immediately cheered up, her big eyes rolled darkly, and she continued to look for the letter that Mr. Sang left for her.
Xu Xiaoshou glanced at it and opened the envelope.
The words, which are as ugly as earthworms, appear abstractly.
"My master has left and he probably won't be back for a while. Why? It's okay not to say anything."
This is the first sentence.
After Xu Xiaoshou finished reading, he clicked his tongue immediately.
Good to leave!
Better never come back.
As for the reason, what kind of reason does Gui Qi Qi have?
Goodbye to you.
He continued to look down.
"The White Cave has reserved a place for you? Remember to go? The 'Jinzhao Fire Seed' you need for cultivation can be obtained inside."
Jinzhao fire kindling?
Xu Xiaoshou looked startled.
Only then did he remember that before leaving Tiansang City, Mr. Sang had indeed given him two jade slips.
They are "Jizhao Tianyan·White Flame" and "Dragon Fusion World".
The prerequisite for practicing both is the "Jinzhao Fire Seed" which is higher than the "Jinzhao Fire Seed".
"Baiyan, Longrong Realm..."
Xu Xiaoshou recalled the way Sang Lao trapped the masked man.
This seemed to be the first time he had seen Mr. Sang actually take action.
Looking back now, if the practice of "Dragon Fusion Realm" is successful, it is impossible to say that even the realm of the throne can be burned directly.
"horrible!"
At that time, Xu Xiaoshou had never fought against the throne, and he did not know the general concept, so he did not know how precious the spiritual skills in his hands were.
But now? My "cooking proficiency" and "enduring life" have both reached the master level.
In addition, "Jinzhao Fire Seed" may also be able to add some passive values to yourself...
Xu Xiaoshou hesitated.
Does it hurt? It does hurt a little.
But where can success be achieved overnight?
In addition, after trying the benefits of "Raging Giant", "Explosive Stance", and "Reaching the Sky in One Step".
Xu Xiaoshou wished he could awaken all his passive skills.
Now, out of the city lord's mansion? The only way I can get a lot of passive points at present is to follow the old path...
"Abused?"
Xu Xiaoshou picked at his fingernails and hesitated.
"It's not impossible..."
"talk later!"
Putting these down, he continued to look down.
"If you can take the 'Four Swords', take them? Don't worry too much about what happens after you get out."
"It doesn't matter if you can't get it, but remember, this sword must not fall into Bai Yi's hands!"
White clothes...
Xu Xiaoshou narrowed his eyes.
Why not red?
Did you write it wrong?
Or? Sang Lao and Bai Yi have a grudge?
Or is it that he and the Holy Temple are not dealing with each other?
The letter didn't say the reason, and it was hard for Xu Xiaoshou to guess.
But that sentence "Take it if you can" really moved Xu Xiaoshou's heart.
He has many prerequisites, coupled with a strong spiritual formation foundation, theoretically speaking, the probability of obtaining the "Four Swords" is much greater than that of others.
The reason why I didn't want to take it before was because I didn't dare.
But what Mr. Sang said...
"Is it credible?"
Xu Xiaoshou was too suspicious.
Very doubtful!
The old man walked away without saying a word.
What if I enter the White Cave and come out with the "Four Swords", and then face the siege of dozens of thrones?
No matter how strong this old man is, he can't be alone. For his own sake, let's risk his precious life!
"Besides..."
Xu Xiaoshou let go again.
There was not much content in the letter, and he could read it all at a glance.
"There are no rules in the White Cave. Once you enter, just follow your inner guidance."
"Remember, no one in this world should believe what my teacher once told you!"
Xu Xiaoshou closed the letter.
"This old man..."
"What was he trying to say?"
"Can't you just say it plainly? Are you asking me not to believe someone... him?"
Xu Xiaoshou pressed his forehead.
Brain pain!
He calmed down and recalled the contents of the letter.
"Very average."
"There are no special instructions. Even asking me to carry the 'Four Swords', I just said yes or no. It's fine."
"Is it a ploy?" Xu Xiaoshou rubbed his chin.
"In order to prevent me from being rebellious?"
"Or should we retreat to advance?"
He said he was still a little unclear about Sang Lao's intentions.
Indeed, if you just read this letter, Mr. Sang is really a good master.
You are responsible for your adventure, and I will resist any consequences.
But is Mr. Sang such a person?
"He clearly had some special purpose in letting me enter the White Cave. Just like last time, he didn't say anything, but I still brought out the black falling sword scabbard."
"Although the scabbard is still in my hand, I feel that everything is still under the control of this dead old man."
"This time, he must have some hidden agenda!"
Xu Xiaoshou pondered for a long time, but still couldn't figure out the reason.
Apart from "there are four swords", he really didn't expect that there would be anything that could become Sang Lao's target.
"A load of crap!"
When he finally came to a conclusion, Xu Xiaoshou was so unhappy that he wanted to burn the letter in his hand.
In terms of wits, it seems that the only one who can easily defeat him is this old man.
However, the main reason is that I have too little contact.
In Lushan...
"Hey, wait!"
Mu Zixi rushed up and snatched away the letter that was to be burned.
"what?"
Xu Xiaoshou could hide, but what he said here was really nonsense, so he didn't care.
"without me?"
Mu Zixi looked at it quickly and suddenly pouted.
"Why is Master so partial? It's okay if you don't leave a letter to me, but in the letter to you, there's not even a sentence to take good care of me?"
Xu Xiaoshou was immediately happy.
"Maybe in his mind, you are never there?"
Mu Zixi suddenly fell silent.
What was supposed to be a joke, this time struck a deep chord in her heart.
really.
In her sixth sense, Old Man Sang seemed to care about her, and even held an apprenticeship ceremony for herself.
This is a treatment that Xu Xiaoshou has never had.
But privately, the relationship between Xu Xiaoshou and him seemed to be more like that of a true master and disciple.
At least that kind of intimate feeling is something I can completely see but not feel.
even!
Caught between the two of them, Mu Zixi even felt a little out of place.
"It's out of place..."
"He's obviously a master and apprentice..."
Thinking of this, Mu Zixi's eyes suddenly turned red.
Since you don't like yourself, why did you accept yourself as your disciple at that time?
"Ouch, why are you crying?"
Xu Xiaoshou was shocked.
This girl is not usually like this!
Why can't I even make a joke this time?
Where is your curse?
Contribute!
"Cursed, passive value, +1, +1, +1, +1..."
Xu Xiaoshou: "..."
Sure enough, the curse will only be late and never absent.
"A little gift for you."
Xu Xiaoshou helped the junior sister wipe away her tears.
"Gift?"
Mu Zixi's eyes suddenly lit up, and the gloom was swept away, "What gift?"
Xu Xiaoshou raised his hand and took out his small bathtub.
"Haven't you always wanted this big treasure from me, senior brother? Now I'll give it to you!"
"real?"
Mu Zixi couldn't believe it.
Is this still Xu Xiaoshou?
Is this still the same Xu Xiaoshou who was so stingy that he exploded and had nothing to lose?
It turns out that to deal with him, you have to use tears...
So purple!
She burst into tears and smiled: "Don't you regret it?"
"Um."
After getting the affirmative answer, Mu Zixi hugged the small bathtub over.
Only then did he remember that he seemed to only care about himself.
Xu Xiaoshou is the true successor of Jinzhao alchemy.
He seems to need this small bathtub more than himself?
"You gave me this alchemy, so what do you use it for?"
Mu Zixi's face showed reluctance and hesitation.
Xu Xiaoshou smiled heartily.
"What's the big deal? I'm just giving it to you. Just take it. You're welcome."
After that, he got up and walked towards the large bathtub piled in the corner, and slapped it hard.
"I use this."
Mu Zixi:? ? ?
She looked startled, "That's not what Master used..."
"He's gone!"
Xu Xiaoshou said matter-of-factly: "Everyone has left. Should the bathtub be left here to gather dust? I just help him clean it regularly."
"Remember, our masters are all so clean-loving people."
Mu Zixi's face turned pale.
She looked at the small bathtub that was one size smaller in front of her.
It turns out that Xu Xiaoshou's sudden generosity was because of this?
With tears...
It doesn't matter!
"Cursed, passive value, +1, +1, +1, +1..."
…
Duang~
Xu Xiaoshou slammed the big bathtub into the guest room of his funeral home.
On the open-air roof, a large amount of sunlight pours down instantly.
After leaving Lingzang Pavilion, he and his junior sister parted ways and went back to their respective homes.
At this moment, Xu Xiaoshou was staring at the bathtub in front of him, the more he looked at it, the more he fell in love with it.
He has been coveting this thing for a long time.
He still remembered that when he went to Lingzang Pavilion for the first time, he asked Mr. Sang about the quality of the alchemy cauldron.
The answer given by the other party was that some swords do not need to be measured by level, and the same is true for some alchemy cauldrons.
"Is it similar to the famous sword among swords and the elixir of cauldrons?"
Xu Xiaoshou was so happy that he wanted to light a fire and refine a Yuanting explosive for him first.
at this time.
"Whizzing!"
Two pieces of clothing fell in the courtyard.
Xu Xiaoshou immediately put the alchemy cauldron into Yuan Mansion on alert, and then looked at it intently.
After all, to him, the spiritual address is equivalent to that of a killer.
But when he really saw the face of the person coming, Xu Xiaoshou was surprised.
"Dean?"
"Elder Qiao?"
The visitors were Ye Xiaotian, who was floating in the void, and Elder Qiao, who was standing on the ground.
Well, the same height.
"Hip, hip, hip, hip -"
Qiao Qianzhi laughed and walked over, "Xiao Shou, I heard that you got eighteen spots in the White Cave at the City Lord's Mansion dinner?"
Xu Xiaoshou immediately bowed his head humbly.
"Where there."
"They're all sold out and divided. There are only two places left."
Sold out…
The smile of the housewarming froze.
Ye Xiaotian's face turned dark immediately.
He immediately resurfaced the scene of Xu Xiaoshou coming out of Tianxuan Sect, in front of him, exploring the treasure of the world, and taking back the "Sealing Ring".
This inconspicuous guy, does he still think that the two of us came to him for the quota in the White Cave?
"Cursed, passive value, +2."
"You think too much."
Ye Xiaotian said: "We didn't come to you for this."
Xu Xiaoshou was startled.
"no?"
"What's that for?"
bother you for something.
Xu Xiaoshou vaguely felt that perhaps the hidden trouble Mr. Sang had brought to him had not yet appeared, but the two people in front of him would definitely trouble him.
"I don't need a reward."
He immediately refused verbally.
Ye Xiaotian's breath was stagnant, he clenched his fist, and then released it.
"Cursed, passive value, +2."
"No reward."
As he spoke, he pulled out a letter, "This is the letter Mr. Sang left for you. I didn't expect you to come back by such a coincidence. I just finished writing it..."
"Cough cough cough!"
"Well, take a look."
Ye Xiaotian's face was expressionless and calm, and he handed it over calmly.
Xu Xiaoshou looked suspicious.
letter?
Didn’t I just read an email from Lingzang Pavilion?
Is it possible that it is still fake?
Or...
He took the envelope.
"Open now?"
"Um."
Ye Xiaotian's eyes showed no trace of expectation.
Looking up at the sky when moving to a new house.
Xu Xiaoshou tore open the envelope and opened the letter paper.
"Take it easy?"
He raised his head and looked at the two of them: "What do you mean?"
Ye Xiaotian said indifferently: "I don't know what it means. After all, I haven't seen it."
"Take it easy? Does it say 'take it easy'?"
"It might be something like 'Don't be too outrageous', 'Be careful with your actions', 'Be careful in everything'..."
"Ahem."
The housewarming coughed again.
Ye Xiaotian's face stiffened, he turned around, put his hands behind his hands, and continued: "Something like that."
"You...think about it for yourself. After all, it is the letter that Old Man Sang left for you, which means that he values you very much. Maybe you can understand something."
Xu Xiao was slapped and his mouth was smacking.
These two goods are too...
Are they too busy to do anything?
As for using such despicable means to forge?
Just say what you have to say directly, and insinuations overtly and covertly. Do you really think that I, Xu Xiaoshou, don’t know what you really think?
You know, Tianxuanmen was just an accident!
"I understand."
Xu Xiaoshou nodded in confusion, "So..."
He didn't understand why the two people who finished the letter didn't leave yet.
"Ahem."
Touching throat during housewarming.
Ye Xiaotian just paused and said:
"By the way, I have a task assigned to you."
"You should have reserved a spot in the White Cave for yourself, so I took it upon myself to make the decision and gave the spot that originally belonged to you to Tan Ji."
"As compensation, now that you are back, you can become the second leader of the two teams from Tiansang Ling Palace to the White Cave."
"When you go to the White Cave, just ask Tan Ji for command rights."
"Everything in Baigu is at your disposal."
Ye Xiaotian didn't give anyone any room to interrupt. As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately pursed his lips and closed them.
Xu Xiaoshou:? ? ?
Do you want me to listen to everything?
So reassured?
So who was this series of insinuations for?
Ye Xiaotian looked at him and said firmly: "Of course, as a team leader, you have to bear the responsibilities that come with it. At least if there is an accident, you have to pay attention to saving the lives of the team members."
I have to say, what the dean said was so beautiful.
Even Xu Xiaoshou, subconsciously, couldn't immediately realize that this was a way of binding responsibilities, and he foolishly thought that being a team leader would be a good job.
But in line with the principle that doing more is worse than doing less, Xu Xiaoshou, who is lazy by nature, still refused.
"That's it."
"There should be thirty-three people in the Spirit Palace fighting against the White Cave?"
"What qualifications do I have to be the team leader..."
Ye Xiaotian sneered and interrupted him: "Am I discussing with you? This is an order!"
"Forehead."
Xu Xiaoshou was momentarily shocked by the dean's domineering attitude.
After the white-haired Taoist boy finished speaking, he walked away without even looking back.
"So emotional?"
"I haven't noticed it before..."
"Why has the dean changed?"
Xu Xiaoshou looked at Qiao Qianzhi with a confused look on his face.
"So, Elder Qiao is here to make fun of himself?"
He has a good relationship with Qiao Qianzhi, so there are not so many rules when there are no outsiders around.
Qiao Qianzhi rolled his eyes.
"What a white-faced, black-faced person. If the dean can give you this team leader, it's because he values you, so you can take over."
"Be careful, you're entering the White Cave, don't mess around."
"Follow Rao Yinyin. She is the leader of the first team. If you don't understand anything, just ask her."
"Then, pay attention to Tan Ji, this guy..."
Xu Xiaoshou's scalp immediately became numb.
Elder Qiao is good at everything, but if he uses his mouth, most of the people in the outer courtyard will have a headache.
He couldn't bear it.
He immediately interrupted: "Elder Qiao, I have something that I just wanted to ask you."
"What's the matter?"
The focus of the housewarming was immediately diverted.
"that is……"
Xu Xiaoshou hesitated for a moment, thinking that Yuan Mansion had gotten it from Elder Qiao, so he didn't show up immediately.
He immediately disappeared, and when he appeared the next second, there was an iron ball glowing with two red lights in his hand.
"Mom..."
This sound came out.
Under the housewarming, he subconsciously took half a step back, and his face instantly became serious.
"As expected, we know each other!"
Xu Xiaoshou has something to play with.
He had never noticed these small details before.
After truly realizing that Ajie is not simple, the micro-movements of the housewarming are simply too shocking.
"What's your problem?"
Xu Xiaoshou didn't say anything when he saw the move, so he asked immediately.
"Tianjishu?"
Xu Xiaoshou didn't sell it, but got straight to the point.
He knew that if he didn't expose something, Elder Qiao might be more devious.
Sure enough, when Qiao Qianzhi heard these three words, his expression became strange.
"How do you know the 'Tian Ji Technique'?"
Obviously, this guy didn't know anything about the spiritual formation before he left the spiritual palace.
Even how to activate the Yuanfu Spiritual Formation, I have to teach you step by step.
I haven't seen you for half a month. Do you have words like "Tian Ji Shu"?
"Elder Qiao, don't worry about how I know."
"Anyway, since Ajie is in my hands, I definitely want to know some of its story. It doesn't seem to be a good idea for you to hide it from me, right?"
Silence during the housewarming.
He didn't understand how far Xu Xiaoshou had reached.
But from the look of this guy, he seems to know a lot?
How long did it take for Mingming to come out of Tianxuan Sect...
"Is Xu Xiaoshou growing up so fast?" He was shocked by the move.
"Are you close to it?" he asked.
"Yeah." Xu Xiaoshou nodded.
"Ajie..."
I hesitated to move to a new house.
Indeed, the reason why I suggested Ye Xiaotian not to take back A Jie was because he saw that A Jie was actually close to humans.
However, the development of the relationship between the two is too fast, right?
Currently, I don't feel the slightest fighting spirit from Ajie?
Is this guy tamed?
impossible!
"well."
After all, he sighed and said, "Ajie, he is a secret puppet from the Holy Temple."
"Holy Temple?"
Xu Xiaoshou felt a chill in his heart. This coincided with his thoughts.
He suddenly thought of someone.
"Dao Qiongang?"
Qiao Qianzhi's expression suddenly changed dramatically, and he covered his mouth.
"Shut up!"
Xu Xiaoshou:? ? ?
what's the situation?
Qiao Qianzhi looked around nervously, squinted his eyes and pinched the spirit formula. After confirming that there was no difference around him, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Are you looking for death? Is this a taboo name for a semi-saint that you can call directly?" he scolded.
Half Saint...
Xu Xiaoshou suddenly felt calm.
It turns out that the legendary current master of the Holy Temple is the kind of semi-saint who has transcended Taixu and touched the power of the Holy Way?
He knew that the person with the highest level of cultivation in this world was called the "Holy Emperor".
However, the "Holy Emperor", an almost miraculous existence, has disappeared from the world for who knows how many years.
The Half-Saint is the only person who is close to this realm.
However, for most people.
Taixu is already the strongest fighting force in the human world.
Even the legendary "Seven Swordsmen" are in this realm.
It seems that there is no possibility of transcendence.
As for the semi-saint...
As for Dao Qiongtian...
According to rumors from the outside world, the existence that was impossible to reach in terms of cultivation, and that could not even be directly addressed by name, was actually mentioned directly from Qiao Qianzhi's mouth in a panicked manner.
Xu Xiaoshou knew that Elder Qiao definitely knew something.
Everyone in the mainland was confused about the realm of the current master of the Holy Temple. Why could he be so sure that he was a semi-saint?
Qiao Qianzhi looked at Xu Xiaoshou with twinkling eyes and knew that with how cunning this guy was, he must have guessed something.
He didn't want to be secretive anymore, so he simply opened up and exploded into something bigger.
"You're right."
"Ajie is indeed the work of the Taoist Palace Master, but it is a defective product!"
