As the demonic fluid in Xiao Wu's body was forcibly extracted, a high-pitched, heartbreaking sound came from Xiao Wu's throat, and the chains on his hands and feet were almost broken in the painful struggle.
Under Xiao Wu's skin, countless black bumps the size of rice grains bulged out, surging backward like maggots. Unfortunately, the suction power of the Molong Ring cannot make them resist at all, and no matter how hard they try, it is in vain.
The demonic liquid surged into Changsheng's body like a surging river.
Due to the unusual speed and amount of magic fluid being sucked in, the pain in his back and right shoulder even made Chang Sheng a little unbearable. He closed his eyes tightly with a weird expression and grinning teeth. Hun Li looked surprised and worried.
It took more than two hours for the demonic liquid in Xiao Wu's body to be completely absorbed.
Xiao Wu also regained his composure, and the blackness in his eyes had completely faded. And he himself slowly fell into a deep sleep.
In the Sea of Immortality Consciousness, the Molong Ring finally changed its form.
The original Black Dragon Ring looked like just a black ring, but now it turned into a blurry dark gray dragon-shaped shadow.
It's just that it's still linked end to end, in the shape of a ring.
"Master? You can actually..."
"There is demonic energy in his body, and my soul can pull and obliterate it, and it can also condense the soul."
"Young Master, it really makes me... how should I put it? It's a bit unbelievable, isn't it?"
"It is estimated that there will be more and more incredible things in the future." Changsheng smiled helplessly.
More than three hours had passed since arriving in Ningchun City, and it was already bright outside.
When the two walked out of the secret room, Xiao Wen and Xiao Zhi looked at Changsheng nervously and expectantly.
"It's okay. He will wake up after sleeping for a while, but I can only guarantee that his life is safe. It's hard to say anything else."
"The general's great kindness will never be forgotten by the Xiao family." The two of them were extremely excited.
"You guys go in and see him. I have something else to ask you later."
"Okay, okay. Quick, take the general to the front hall to rest."
After a while, Xiao Wen and Xiao Zhi entered the front hall.
"Thank you, General, for saving your life. I, the Xiao family, will never forget it."
Xiao Wen said as he took out a jade box and handed it to Changsheng with both hands: "These are two space stones left by our ancestors for laying the teleportation array. Although no one can lay the teleportation array now, but if you get it at the auction It can be sold at a good price even on the market. It’s no respect, I hope the general won’t dislike it.”
"Master Xiao and Master Xiao are too polite." Changsheng was also polite. He took the jade box and put it into his storage bag without opening it.
"Master Xiao, I want to know how the people in the Nine Saints Hall knew about Xiao Wu? And why did they come to kidnap Xiao Wu?"
"I feel ashamed to say it. Not to mention how they knew about the second brother, we don't even know who they are." Xiao Wen shook his head helplessly as he spoke.
"So, does anyone know about Xiao Wu? Especially after he has changed?"
"By the way, I remember that Ding Hui came here two or three months ago, and mentioned his second brother intentionally or unintentionally. Now that I think about it, Ding Hui must have had an ulterior motive for asking about his second brother in a roundabout way, otherwise he could have asked directly. .”
"Who is Ding Hui?"
"The steward of Tianyuan Mountain's Yuanjing veins."
"Before he became the steward of the mines, Ding Hui was also the alchemist of the Alchemy Hall Guild. However, he was forcibly dismissed by the guild because of his evil intentions," Xiao Wen added.
"Isn't your mind right? Why is your mind so evil?" Changsheng asked in confusion.
"It is said that he once used living monks to study alchemy. Originally, the guild had zero tolerance for such things, but he was suppressed by a certain powerful minister in the dynasty. There was no other way, so the guild could only force him to leave. After that, he was suppressed by a powerful minister in the dynasty. It must have been this powerful minister who arranged for him to be in charge of the Tianyuan Mine, but I didn’t expect that he became the manager in just a few decades.”
"Okay, I understand. Jiu Shengtang will definitely not give up if they didn't succeed last night. For the sake of safety, you'd better disappear for a while, or go to another place anonymously."
"Thank you for your concern, General. My eldest brother and I also have this plan."
Xiao Wu was eroded by the demon liquid, and Jiu Shengtang was not surprised that he was interested in him. It's just that Ding Hui, which makes Chang Sheng a little confused. It's possible that Ding Hui is related to the magic liquid or even the Nine Saints Church.
The next day, Chang Sheng and Hun Li took the Big Bird to the Tianyuan Mine.
The Tianyuan Mountain Yuanjing Mine is directly under the jurisdiction of the Dynasty Mineral Prefecture and is less than a hundred miles away from Tianyuan City.
A wall about twenty feet high surrounded half of the mineral vein, with a radius of more than several hundred miles. There is a sentry every few feet on the wall, and soldiers from the garrison camp patrol the wall back and forth.
After the two arrived at the mineral vein, Changsheng first felt the strong response from the Molong Ring. This is the second time this feeling has appeared. The first time was at the Nine Holy Church stronghold in the Ghost Mist Abyss.
Is there another stronghold of the Nine Saints Church in this vein? Immortal vigilance suddenly arises.
"Excuse me, I'd like to inform you that the Underworld Chief is here to visit."
With the sound of a shaft turning, the door of the mine slowly opened.
About ten rows of two-story garrison barracks, dozens of rows of one-story dormitories for prisoners and miners, and a three-story steward's pavilion caught the eyes of Chang Sheng and Hun Li.
The miners who walked back and forth in the mines in the courtyard were all prisoners wearing chains on their hands and feet.
After Chang Sheng and the two entered, three officials came to greet them.
"Zhang Hang and Xu Dong, the third-rank stewards of Xiaguan Mining Mansion, meet with the general."
"The last general, Tianyuan Mine Guard Camp, Dong Hao, meets the general."
"You don't have to be polite. I just heard that Manager Ding Hui loves alchemy, so I came here to see him."
"Manager Ding has been in his alchemy room for more than half a month without leaving the house." Zhang Hang said helplessly.
"Take me to meet him."
Zhang Hang did not go to the steward's pavilion, but led Changsheng and the two to the mine.
Looking at Chang Sheng's puzzled eyes, Zhang Hang explained: "In the past few decades, Steward Ding has never been to Steward's Pavilion. He has always stayed in the alchemy room he dug himself in the mine."
The entire mine was brightly illuminated by a row of moonstones suspended on the top. After a few people entered the mine for about a hundred feet, Zhang Hang pointed to a stone door seven or eight feet square on the mine wall.
"This is it."
The stone door shone like stars, and from time to time there would be a small flash of lightning. Obviously, there were many talismans placed on the stone door.
"You can't even hear him calling from outside. We have never called him, and we don't know how to get in." Zhang Hang spread his hands and smiled helplessly.
"Using simple talismans to overlap and create such a complex defensive formation, Ding Hui is an interesting person." Changsheng said, focusing his consciousness on the stone gate to explore.
After a while, he reached out to explore the stone door and took a talisman in his hand. Then ten times in a row, more than a dozen talismans appeared in Changsheng's hand, and the stone door creaked open a crack.
Zhang Hang watched the stone door open in surprise, clasped his fists at Changsheng and said, "I admire you." Then he turned and left.
As soon as Chang Sheng and Hun Li entered the stone gate, a seemingly crazy old man with disheveled hair, disheveled clothes, and dark circles under his eyes rushed over instantly.
"How did you get in? You actually opened the talisman formation? You?..."
The crazy old man looked at Changsheng and was suddenly stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha, are you a demon? Hahahaha, God has treated me well. I am planning to find you? Tell me quickly, have you taken out the monster in Xiao Wu's body that can ignore the laws of heaven? I will When I heard the news that the Xiao family was captured by the Underworld Division, I thought that it must be you, the demon leader, who also took a fancy to the monster in Xiao Wu's body."
"Ignore the laws of heaven? Why ignore the laws of heaven..."
Before Chang Sheng could finish what he blurted out, the old man looked at Hun Li again with wide eyes.
"You? You? White-robed and kind-faced, you must be the second devil who can devour souls. Hahahaha, God has treated me well. He has treated me well."
As the old man spoke, with lightning speed, his soul left his body and burrowed towards Hun Li Tianling. It's a pity that the soul area of the soul clan can't be broken into by people from the Wuji Realm now?
"How is it possible? I specialize in cultivating the soul, how could I not be able to enter your sea of consciousness?" Ding Hui stared at Hun Li and said in surprise.
Although Ding Hui's cultivation level is only Ningzhen, his specialization in soul power has reached the third level, and there is almost no sea of consciousness under Tongmai that he cannot break into.
"I conclude that you are not a demon cultivator. You are not a demon cultivator but you can devour souls. Can you only create a more powerful soul? Or? Could it be? Are you a soul clan?"
Ding Hui cried out in surprise, then frowned and shook his head: "No, no. The Soul Clan has been extinct for millions of years. And the laws of heaven will not allow the Soul Clan to appear."
Chang Sheng and Hun Li looked at each other in surprise.
"Since you are not a soul clan, is it possible? Do you, the Chief Demon Lord, have a technique that can swallow the true essence and swallow the soul? It must be, it must be. You have been able to refine the Heaven-level Xuantian Pill before, it must be because you have a special Divine Soul Technique.”
Ding Hui said as he suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled it towards the storage bag on Changsheng's waist.
"Manager Ding, steward Ding."
Chang Sheng dodged Ding Hui's hand in a flash, and Hun Li also used Xiao Juyuan's pressure to instantly restrain Ding Hui.
"Boss Ding, please stop getting excited. Tell me what you want to do?" Chang Sheng felt that this Ding Hui was not an ordinary lunatic.
Ding Hui didn't pay attention to Hun Li's restraint on him and didn't resist. He stared at Chang Sheng and said, "Chang Demon, let me see your storage bag. I am sure that the technique you possess can swallow the true energy and soul? "
Ding Hui said seriously.
"Manager Ding, please don't get excited. First of all, I don't have this kind of skill. Secondly, there is no need for me to lie to you."
After Changsheng finished speaking, Hun Li also released his restraint on Ding Hui.
"Besides, I am curious about a few things and would like to ask Manager Ding for advice."
"I don't dare to ask for advice. If there is anyone in this world who can save the world of cultivation, if you, the devil, say second, absolutely no one dares to say first. And if I, Ding Hui, say third, absolutely no one dares to say second. "
"Save the world of cultivation? Why should I save the world of cultivation?"
"General Changsheng will never dare to say this. Although everyone knows that you are an out-and-out devil. But as a member of this world of cultivation, especially as an alchemist, you and I can save this declining world." The world of cultivation can’t wait any longer.”
Damn, you’re still an out-and-out devil? Chang Sheng has a black line on his forehead.
