"That's sloppy, that's sloppy." Butcher Zhang looked at the body refining side in his hand and shook his head inwardly.
Just now, he secretly made up his mind that no matter what Zhang Xiaozu asked for, he would get it for Zhang Xiaozu.
But as soon as he took the Body Refining Fang in his hand, he began to regret it, because every elixir on the Fang was of treasure level, which made his eyelids jump.
He looked at the fifty kinds of elixirs carefully, and then asked Zhang Xiaozu suspiciously: "Is this the recipe for alchemy?"
If this was a recipe for alchemy, he really couldn't imagine what kind of elixir would be produced with terrible effects.
Zhang Xiaozu shook his head and replied: "This is a recipe for tempering the body."
"Body training?!" Butcher Zhang was very surprised.
In his opinion, using these fifty kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures to refine the body is really a waste of natural resources.
Zhang Xiaozu nodded and asked: "Do you remember that I told you that I was thrown into the alchemy furnace by a giant ape in the dark forest?"
"Remember." Zhang Tufu responded, then his eyes lit up and he asked in surprise: "You mean this prescription is the elixir that the giant ape put in the alchemy furnace? Can it be used to refine the body?"
"That's right!" Zhang Xiaozu nodded, and then said: "What you and Master guessed is correct. The giant ape was not trying to refine me into elixirs, it was tempering my physical body."
"No wonder your boy is able to break the innate shackles of Zhanmen. It turns out that he used so many heavenly materials and earthly treasures to temper his body." Butcher Zhang suddenly understood.
Then he couldn't help frowning and asked worriedly: "Did you write this statement from memory? Is it not rigorous? With so many heavenly materials and earthly treasures gathered together, if a certain key thing is missing, it is very likely that something will happen. The energy is chaotic and explosive.”
Zhang Xiaozu said: "This list was dictated by the giant ape. My senior sister and Yoyo compared the records one by one with the "Record of Rare Treasures" and checked with the giant ape again and again. There should be no problem."
"Have you entered the Black Forest again?" Butcher Zhang asked.
"No, it's the giant ape that came out of the black forest." Zhang Xiaozu replied.
"Out-out?" Butcher Zhang looked like I had heard something wrong.
"Well, it came out." Zhang Xiaopou said.
Butcher Zhang had an extremely shocked expression on his face. He opened and closed his mouth several times, as if he wanted to say something but didn't know how.
The news that the black giant ape came out of the black forest caused an extremely huge ideological impact and shock to him.
After calming down his shock a little, Butcher Zhang said: "The Black Forest is an ancient ruin, and there are many terrifying ancient beasts living in it, but they are all bound by the laws of heaven and are not allowed to leave the Black Forest.
That the giant ape can leave the black forest means that it has broken away from the constraints of the laws of heaven. This is really terrifying.
There are many ancient ruins like the Black Forest in the Kyushu Continent. If all the ancient beasts inside break free from the laws of heaven and escape, then we humans will lose our right to rule the Kyushu Continent and be ruled by the ancient beasts.
Monsters are a hundred times more ferocious than humans. If humans were ruled by monsters, do you dare to imagine what it would be like? "
The four of them tried to think about such a scene, and they couldn't help but feel horrified when they thought of human beings being kept in captivity by monsters and being served to the dinner table.
Zhang Xiaozu was particularly horrified because he had seen with his own eyes the horrific scene of the black giant ape eating people.
Seeing that the four of them were so frightened, Butcher Zhang couldn't help but laugh and said: "Just think about it briefly to give yourself a sense of urgency in your cultivation. Don't think about it too much, because with your current low level of cultivation, what? It can’t be done either.”
The four nodded in understanding.
Zhang Xiaozu said: "It is not easy to get out of the black forest. The black ape is extremely talented and has found a new way in cultivation. Its cultivation method is difficult to copy and learn, so there should not be a large number of ancient ferocious beasts coming out of the forbidden area." Situations happen.”
"Does it say how to find another way?" Butcher Zhang asked curiously.
"It says it's a return to ancestral practice." Zhang Xiaozu replied.
"Return to your ancestors to practice?" Butcher Zhang was confused.
"It first cultivated from nothingness to the demon king realm, and then cultivated from the demon king realm to nothingness, and then cultivated its own law of power from nothingness, thereby breaking free from the shackles of the laws of heaven." Zhang Xiaozhu explained in detail.
After hearing this, Butcher Zhang frowned and fell into deep thought.
Zhang Xiaozhu and the four others kept silent when they saw this, not wanting to disturb his thinking.
However, the four of them did not see Butcher Zhang wake up after waiting for a long time. They guessed that he might have been inspired by the black ape's return to his ancestors and understood something, so they did not dare to disturb him.
The four of them quietly exited the room and closed the door, leaving Butcher Zhang with the quietest environment for thinking.
When they got up the next morning, the four of them were surprised to find that Butcher Zhang was still thinking with his eyes closed.
After breakfast, Yuan Taiping went to work at the Ministry of War alone, Niu Dawa and Zhou Jian went to the street to do shopping, and Zhang Xiaopeng stayed at home to protect Zhang Butcher.
Yuan Taiping came back very late in the evening, saying that he had been invited by Prince Su Hui to drink at Wuwei Camp.
Niu Dawa hugged his dome and said that he would work hard to understand the law of power. As a result, before half a cup of tea, he fell on the bed and fell asleep.
Zhou Jianlai studied the art of swordsmanship in his room.
Apart from going to Yunzhu Xiaoyuan to teach boxing and study in the afternoon, Zhang Xiaozu also spent the rest of his time practicing.
The day seems to fly by in the blink of an eye.
When I woke up the next morning, Butcher Zhang was still in the room.
Yuan Taiping was in high spirits and went out early.
Niu Dawa was lying on a soft chair holding the giant egg, basking in the sun under the eaves in front of the door.
Zhou Jianlai studied the art of swordsmanship in his room.
Zhang Xiaozu came to Yunzhu Courtyard after lunch because Ye Mingyue made an appointment with him today to tell him what elixirs he had received.
Ye Mingyue arrived at Yunzhu Courtyard very late, looking a little tired, and told Zhang Xiaozu that he had only received twenty-three kinds of elixirs, and only fifteen of the twenty-three kinds of elixirs had collected six copies.
Counting the six types in Zhang Xiaozu's hand, there are only twenty-nine types in total, and there are still twenty-five types to collect a complete body-refining elixir.
The situation was a bit different from what Zhang Xiaozu had imagined. He thought that by taking out the holy blood and jade items, he would not be able to collect all the body-refining elixirs at once, but it shouldn't be a problem to collect seven or eighty-eight, but he only received half of them.
Ye Mingyue saw that Zhang Xiaopou was a little anxious, so he comforted him: "These elixirs are all treasure-level. You can't find them when you come across them, and you can't rush them."
Zhang Xiaozu nodded to express his understanding.
He mainly wanted to collect a portion first to help Zhou Jian to practice again, otherwise he wouldn't be in such a hurry.
"Your Majesty seems to have a lot of good things there." Zhang Xiaozu muttered, thinking about Su Hanlin.
"You can ask your butcher grandpa to help you find out." Ye Mingyue said with a smile.
"That's what I meant." Zhang Xiaozhu nodded. In fact, that was what he thought when he showed Zhang Butcher the body-refining recipe the night before.
"Who gave you this body refining recipe?" Ye Mingyue asked curiously.
"A guy who can break free from the laws of heaven." Zhang Xiaozu pretended to be mysterious.
"Do you know such a powerful person?" Ye Mingyue asked in surprise.
"Otherwise, how do you think I dare to go to the suburbs and fight with so many people?" Zhang Xiaozu asked with a sly smile.
"I thought you relied on the old butcher." Ye Mingyue said.
"Oh, by the way." Zhang Xiaozu suddenly remembered something, took out a note from the mustard seeds and handed it to Ye Mingyue, saying: "I forgot to give it to you that day. These four elixirs are also body refining formulas. It’s in it, and it’s the main ingredient. I was afraid that the prescription would be leaked, so I didn’t include these four ingredients.”
Ye Mingyue took the note and glanced at it, sneered "ha", threw the note back to Zhang Xiaozu, and said: "You should have shown me these four things earlier, so that I wouldn't have to work in vain for so many days. .”
"Why do you say this?" Zhang Xiaozu asked in surprise.
Ye Mingyue sneered: "Because it's impossible for you to collect these four rare treasures. I still thought that I could enjoy a top-notch medicinal bath, but I didn't expect that my joy would be in vain."
Ye Mingyue shook her head and sighed with disappointment.
"Buddha flower fruit, sycamore tears, longevity fruit, thousand-year-old bodhi leaves, it seems - they are not easy to get, but is there really no hope?" Zhang Xiaozhu asked with a smile.
He suddenly remembered that Qi Yoyo's expression was indeed a bit weird when he wrote these four elixirs, and reminded him to be mentally prepared, saying that these four things were difficult to find, but he did not expect that they were so difficult to find. It made Ye Mingyue give up hope without any struggle. It seems that Qi Yoyo was afraid of dampening his enthusiasm, so she spoke very reservedly.
"The Buddha moved his ordinary heart, fell in love with a woman, fell into the mortal world, and the relics after he sat down and transformed became the flower and fruit of the Buddha. There are many fake monks in the world who eat fast and chant the Buddha's name. Where is the Buddha? How can he move the ordinary heart after he has become a Buddha? You Where can I find this Buddha flower fruit?"
"After the death of the phoenix, it was buried under the sycamore tree. The phoenix tree listened to the thousands of years of mourning and gained spiritual wisdom. It shed phoenix tears. The phoenix tears turned into fire when they met the earth, awakening the immortal soul of the phoenix, and then reborn from the ashes. Have you seen a phoenix? I have never seen it. .”
"The longevity fruit on the longevity tree blooms for thousands of years and bears fruit for thousands of years. Eating it can increase your life span by five hundred years. How much holy blood do you think it would take to exchange for one? But -"
But what? Ye Mingyue stopped talking, and turned to talk about the thousand-year-old bodhi tree, smiling: "I heard that the Changsheng Sect obtained a thousand-year-old bodhi tree in the ancient ruins, but it was a pity that it withered away within a year after being transplanted into the sect. It seems that we got thirteen Bodhi leaves in total. We don’t even deserve to know where the gate of Changsheng Sect is, how many Bodhi leaves do you think we can get?"
"——" Zhang Xiaozu was stunned with his mouth open. For a moment, only the word "despair" was left in his heart.
He stared blankly at the note in his hand. He was stunned for a long time, perhaps still wanting to struggle. He suddenly remembered the way Ye Mingyue hesitated when talking about the longevity fruit, and a trace of hope ignited in his desperate heart. He looked at Ye Mingyue and asked: "When you talked about the longevity fruit just now, you said 'but', but what?"
"I've seen the longevity fruit." Ye Mingyue sighed.
"Where?" Zhang Xiaozhu asked anxiously, not noticing the change in Ye Mingyue's expression.
"In an ancient ruins." Ye Mingyue said with a gloomy expression.
"Is there more?" Zhang Xiaozu looked at him hopefully.
"Yes, but I can't get in. Even if I can get in, I can't go because it is a place of death, and Bai Mo died there." Ye Mingyue said in a sad voice, recalling the nightmare adventure in his mind.
"No, no, no!" Zhang Xiaozu shook his head suddenly.
"What's wrong? I experienced it myself. Du Tianlu and I were the only ones who went in. I still have nightmares to this day." Ye Mingyue shouted sharply.
