The fire in Han Zhao's heart was relieved and he calmed down. The visitor had turned into ashes, leaving only a Sumeru bag.
With a flick of his right hand, he sucked the Sumeru bag into his palm, and when his spiritual power penetrated it, his face suddenly turned dark.
Another short-lived ghost who doesn’t take all his wealth with him when he goes out!
There were only dozens of gold beads inside, some daily necessities, and nothing else.
Han Zhao stuffed the Xumi bag into his arms, then turned to look at Lin Yu behind him.
It seems that he brought this person here.
"Who is this person and why did he attack you?"
"Senior Qi, this person's name is Gu Yuanshun, and he is the head of the Gu family on Turtle Island." Lin Yu came back to his senses and bowed respectfully to Han Zhao with a very low posture.
"Gu family? I have an impression that there is a great elder in the Four Evils realm. I didn't expect that the head of the Gu family is also in the Three Evils realm. The strength of the Gu family should not be underestimated."
Han Zhao pondered.
He saw the name of Gu Wugui, the eldest elder of the Gu family, in the previous intelligence. He was in the Four Evils realm.
not bad.
After all, among the Martial Saints in this realm, a very small number of those with profound knowledge will develop the second minor magical power, and their strength will be greatly enhanced.
"Senior, in fact, this Gu Yuanshun is also... the Four Evils." Lin Yu's voice was dry, but his heart was still full of shock.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! This person is at most the level of entering the Three Evil Realms for the first time." Han Zhao waved his hand and said seriously.
He just released the 'Sun True Gang' small magical power with all his strength in anger, but he only broke through to the three evil realms last month, and the time to condense the 'Sun True Gang' small magical power was only about a month.
Although he has the strength to fight beyond the next level, he will not be able to kill a Four Evil Realm Martial Saint in one blow. This is not a Kryptonian life-killing method.
[Sun Zhengang: The scorching Zhenqi is condensed into Gangqi, which explodes in an instant to a terrifying high temperature, which can be close to the surface temperature of the sun; through the condensation of magical power seeds into small magical powers, the power can be greatly increased. 】
[Seed of magical power: top grade (2000/2000), cannot be upgraded; minor magical power: true power of the sun; special effect: power of minor magical power increased by 2 times]
At this time, the system prompt appears.
"..." Han Zhao fell into a brief silence and thought to himself: "It seems that after the realm breakthrough, my strength has been greatly improved due to the increase in double minor magical powers, exceeding my expectations."
"Senior, this person..." Lin Yu didn't know what to say.
His eldest brother Lin Zhan is regarded as the number one genius of the Tianmo Sect in a century. He has cultivated to the Three Evil Realm at the age of thirty-two.
Two years ago, Lin Zhan fought with Gu Wugui, the eldest elder of the Gu family, and both sides lost.
A year ago, Gu Yuanshun was exploring the Demon Mountain at night and was severely injured by Lin Zhan using the Demon Disintegration Technique. However, he himself also fell into a coma due to the aggravation of his injuries. After he woke up, he was in seclusion and could not come out.
Now Gu Yuanshun has also broken through to the Four Evil Realm. Even if his strength is not as good as Gu Wugui, he is still not something that ordinary martial saints can match. As a result, who would have thought that Gu Yuanshun would be instantly killed by Senior Ding with one move.
"Actually, I'm just kidding you." Looking at Lin Yu's expression, Han Zhao knew that the strength he had just revealed was too amazing, so he quickly found an excuse.
"This man is indeed amazingly powerful. I was interrupted in my alchemy just now. In anger, I directly used a life-consuming trick, and then I managed to kill him with serious injuries."
Han Zhao covered his chest and coughed a few times.
"..." Lin Yu twitched the corner of his mouth and watched him talk nonsense seriously.
"This person is looking for death. I won't take your money, but the loss of the alchemy..." Han Zhao changed the subject and changed the topic.
"The junior will definitely do his best to meet all the alchemy needs of the senior!" Lin Yu said respectfully.
"I'm starting to like you a little bit." Han Zhao was also very pleased that Lin Yu was so kind.
"Senior, I can give you half of the soul nourishing wood first. I just ask you to refine the energy-replenishing pill as soon as possible!"
Lin Yu gritted his teeth and made a decision.
Han Zhao heard this and shook his head: "No need. I have recently improved my alchemy skills to a higher level, and will soon be able to refine the Yuan-Building and Void-Returning Pill. When the time comes, just present the complete Soul-Nourishing Wood."
This soul-nourishing wood is already in his pocket, there is no need to cut it off or affect its effectiveness.
He had opened the furnace three times before, and all three furnaces failed. However, he summed up a lot of experience, so he started to refine the Golden Body Pill again and almost refined a high-grade pill just now.
"Before the transaction is completed, if you have any trouble, you can come to me." Han Zhao added.
"Thank you, senior!" Lin Yu looked happy. Now that his eldest brother was seriously injured and in solitary confinement, he had actually thought of the worst possibility. Now that there was such a principled master by his side, he decided to hold on to this thigh tightly.
"Of course, brothers have to settle accounts clearly, and helping you is something other than a transaction." Han Zhao said in a more serious tone: "I have to pay more!"
"Yes!" Lin Yu bowed deeply.
"Someone is here. You can handle it yourself. I went to the back room to make elixirs." Han Zhao waved his hand and disappeared in front of Lin Yu.
Not long after he left, a group of warriors dressed in purple and black uniforms came outside the courtyard holding torches and lanterns.
The hot air flow after the sun's true energy dissipated still remained in the air.
Compared with the collapse of the walls of the wing rooms in the courtyard, the large black pit outside the courtyard, a large piece of bluestone completely disappeared, and the land on the edge turned into a black-red fluid, like rolling magma, exuding terrifying heat.
"Nephew Yuxian, are you okay?! What happened?"
A purple old man with a dove-shaped face stepped forward to ask. He was extremely thin and his face was haggard.
This person is Shi Mingxiao, the great elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect. The Heavenly Demon Sect is currently second only to Lin Zhan in strength as a martial saint. He just broke through to the Three Evil Realm some time ago.
Lin Yu glanced at him, then looked around at everyone in the field, and said calmly: "Someone broke into my study just now and wanted to do me harm. Big brother has already killed him."
"What? The sect leader is out of seclusion!"
"Sect Master, he is not..."
"That's great! The sect leader has accomplished his great feat! We no longer need to be so arrogant about the Gu family!"
When the warriors in the field heard this, most of the warriors dressed in black looked happy.
Black clothes are the standard clothing for inner disciples at the Jin training level.
The ones wearing purple clothes are the elders of Zang Zang Master Realm and Ningsha Martial Saint Realm.
Shi Mingxiao said in a deep voice: "Since it was the sect master who took action personally, where is the sect master now?"
"After my eldest brother recovered from his injury, he made further progress and just broke through to the Four Evil Realm. Now the realm is not yet stable, so he has returned to the Demon Cave. He will not officially leave the realm until he has completely mastered the second minor magical power! "
Lin Yu said calmly, now that he has Ding Xiu's support, he is confident. When Ding Xiu refines the Yuan-Replenishing Pill, his elder brother's injury will definitely be cured, and there will be no need to be afraid of Shi Mingxiao.
During this period, Shi Mingxiao pressed harder and harder. He had already reached the limit of his endurance, and now he finally let out a fierce breath.
"What?!"
"The sect leader has made a breakthrough!"
"Very good!"
"When the sect leader develops the second minor magical power, our Heavenly Demon Sect will definitely reach a higher level and become the top force second only to the Xu family in Jukun City and the Lan family in Xibei City."
"This time we must make the Gu family remember something!"
Hearing Lin Yu's confident words, the disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect in the field looked excited.
"The sect master really made a breakthrough?!" Shi Mingxiao's face looked a little uncertain.
"If Elder Shi doesn't believe it, you can go to the Demon Cave to find out." Lin Yu smiled.
"Nephew Yuxian is joking." Shi Mingxiao's expression froze. Once the Broken Dragon Stone fell, unless it was opened from the inside, it would be impossible for anyone with strength above the Four Evils realm to lift it up, and he didn't dare to try.
He knew much more about what happened tonight than others, because he was the one who secretly communicated with the Gu family and asked the Gu family to send people to kill Lin Yu, and then he took the throne as the leader of the clan.
But what happened tonight was completely beyond his expectation.
Judging from the traces left at the scene, the battle lasted for a very short time and should have ended soon.
"This damn Gu Yuanshun has broken through to the Four Evil Realm, and yet he is still so timid." Shi Mingxiao cursed in his heart.
He felt that the Gu family must have only sent a martial saint from the First Evil Realm to assassinate Lin Yu, otherwise the battle would not have ended so quickly and the excellent opportunity he created would have been wasted.
If Gu Yuanshun comes in person, even if Lin Zhan breaks through to the Four Evils realm, his realm will definitely be unstable and he will definitely not be Gu Yuanshun's opponent.
"Where are the disciples responsible for the vigil tonight?" Lin Yu changed the topic.
"Reporting to the Acting Sect Master, the disciple responsible for the night watch is missing!" An elder in purple said respectfully. Lin Zhan previously asked Lin Yu to serve as the acting Sect Master before retreating. In the past two years, Lin Zhan has been in retreat. Many people are not convinced, but now Lin Zhan Not only did Zhan recover from his injuries, but his skills also improved greatly. It was too late not to show his loyalty at this time.
"These rip-off dogs! They even colluded with outsiders!"
Lin Yu said coldly, glancing at Shi Mingxiao from the corner of his eye.
Lin Yu felt that what happened tonight must be related to Shi Mingxiao, otherwise even Gu Yuanshun would not be able to sneak into the study in the back hall without anyone noticing.
He really didn't expect Shi Mingxiao to do this. This man was rescued by his father, and the two later became brothers with different surnames.
Lin Yu had always regarded Shi Mingxiao as a respectable elder, but he didn't expect that Shi Mingxiao would want him dead now in order to seize the position of sect leader!
"Can't let these people go, kill them!"
The inner disciples were furious.
"Elder Chen, I'll leave this matter to you." Lin Yu looked at a bald man in the middle of the crowd and said. This man was Chen Feiying, the leader of the Tianmo Sect's Punishment Hall.
"Yes, Acting Sect Master, I will go on my mission immediately!" Chen Feiying bowed respectfully and left with several punishment disciples.
】
"Let's all disperse, remember! Don't leak tonight's events before my eldest brother comes out of seclusion. Let's wait until my eldest brother comes out of seclusion."
Lin Yu put his hands behind his back and said solemnly.
"Yes! I'll take my leave!" Everyone saluted in unison.
Before Shi Mingxiao left, he looked at the collapsed wall of the wing in the courtyard.
He walked out of the apse, returned to his room, and immediately summoned his confidants.
"Immediately find an opportunity to go to the Gu family, notify Gu Yuanshun and ask him why he didn't come in person, giving Lin Zhan and Lin Yu a chance to breathe! Tell him to act in advance, otherwise this elder will have to change someone else to cooperate!"
"yes!"
After Shi Mingxiao waited until his confidant warriors left, he recruited another person. The other person was tall and strong, with a bald head and a shiny head. It was Chen Feiying, the leader of the Punishment Hall.
"Elder Shi, this is different from what you originally said!" Chen Feiying took the lead in questioning before Shi Mingxiao could speak.
"How did I know that Gu Yuanshun was so unreliable!" Shi Mingxiao's face darkened.
"Now that the sect master has broken through the Four Evil Realm, he is expected to be released from seclusion soon. By then, none of us will be able to make a difference." Chen Feiying said worriedly.
"What are you afraid of! Even if Lin Zhan really breaks through, the Gu family still has two martial saints in the Four Evil Realm. Plus I and you are working together inside and outside. No matter how strong Lin Zhan is, he will still be punished on the spot."
Shi Mingxiao's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
"I hope so." Chen Feiying sighed, looking a little unsure.
When Lin Zhan used the method of disintegrating demons to fight against Gu Yuanshun, he was also present. Lin Zhan's deterrent to him was too strong! If Shi Mingxiao hadn't repeatedly guaranteed that Lin Zhan would die of serious injuries, he wouldn't have dared to betray him.
"Hmph! Did Lin Zhan really make a breakthrough, or is it just a matter of speculation!" Shi Mingxiao sneered.
"You mean..." Chen Feiying's expression changed.
"The old gang leader is my sworn brother. No one knows the secrets of the Lin family better than me. It is possible to survive after using the demon disintegration method, but it is absolutely impossible to recover from all injuries and break through to the Four Evils realm!" Shi Mingxiao said solemnly. road.
"Then who took action tonight? The traces left on the scene are definitely caused by some magical power!" Chen Feiying was puzzled.
"Lin Yu has been secretly looking for the alchemist for more than half a year. He thought I didn't know. Lin Zhan's injuries must have reached a point where it is difficult to recover, otherwise he wouldn't be so anxious. He secretly brought him back some time ago. An old man lives in the courtyard where the battle took place tonight, so..." Shi Mingxiao explained.
"You mean, the person who took action tonight was not Lin Zhan, but the old man?" Chen Feiying suddenly realized.
Shi Mingxiao was a little speechless. He didn't understand why Chen Feiying only grew muscles and not a brain. He said in a deep voice:
"The alchemist must have refined some elixir that can relieve injuries or stimulate vitality. Tonight may be the last time Lin Zhan appears."
"So that's it, Lin Yu is bluffing!" Chen Feiying understood.
That makes sense.
It was indeed Lin Zhan who took action, but he probably did it forcefully. In order to shock everyone, he tried his best to create an illusion that his strength had greatly improved.
"In any case, I underestimated Lin Yu before, and he found an intermediate alchemist. Go and investigate the details of that alchemist, if necessary." Shi Mingxiao put his hand on his neck and stroked it hard. .
"Don't worry, this matter will be taken care of by me." Chen Feiying smiled easily, this matter is simple.
"Go and prepare. Be quiet for the next period of time and wait for the Gu family's reply. The next time you attack, it must be a thunderous strike!" Shi Mingxiao ordered.
"Okay!" Chen Feiying left the room.
In the empty room, Shi Mingxiao murmured softly.
"Brother, don't blame me. The soul-raising tree won't be of much use if left to Lin Yu. Why don't you leave it to me? I will definitely carry forward the Heavenly Demon Sect!"
...
Ten days after the night attack, the Tianmo Sect was still investigating the traitors, but found nothing.
After Han Zhao moved to a wing, Lin Yu moved directly to the room opposite him, saying that he wanted to protect him and prevent anyone from disturbing his alchemy refining.
Han Zhao knew what Lin Yu was thinking, but he didn't expose it.
Anyway, as long as he pays more money, he is a martial saint in the Five Evil Realm, and Han Zhao is willing to have a chance with him.
"puff!"
In the room, a purple-gold three-legged alchemy furnace was floating in the air. As Han Zhao continued to inject the fire-like gas, the temperature in the furnace rose sharply. When the temperature reached its peak, a muffled sound suddenly came from the alchemy furnace. There was a sound, and then, wisps of white mist overflowed.
The room was quickly enveloped by the strong fragrance of medicine. Seeing this, Han Zhao waved his sleeves and robe, and his true energy stirred up wisps of breeze and gathered the white mist.
"Okay! Great!"
Han Zhao used his true energy to open the pill furnace and looked at the three round and full milky white pills inside, his face brightening.
A strain of Bu Yuan Zhi, a third-level demonic beast inner elixir comparable to that of the Three Evil Realm Martial Saints, plus other auxiliary medicines, can only be used to refine ten furnaces of Yuan Bu Yuan Returning Pill at most. Han Zhao failed four furnaces in a row, and finally this The fifth furnace was successful.
Moreover, among the three pills, one was of low grade, while the other two were of medium grade.
"This is me. It would be impossible for any high-level alchemist to succeed so quickly."
Han Zhao felt extremely happy.
"Come again!"
Han Zhao expertly put in various medicinal materials, waiting until the potency of one medicinal material was fully exerted in the tempering of the furnace fire, and then added the next medicinal material.
In this way, he practiced alchemy from the afternoon until late at night, and finally used up the remaining five medicinal materials.
Of the remaining five furnaces of elixirs, four were successful and one failed.
A total of five furnaces of Yuan-Buying and Void-Returning Pills were refined, with a total of seventeen pills, five of which were low-grade, eight which were medium-grade, three which were high-grade, and one which was extremely high-grade.
After putting away the elixir furnace, Han Zhao took out a low-grade Replenishing Energy and Returning Deficiency Pill and swallowed it into his belly. A powerful medicinal power rose from his lower abdomen, flowed rapidly through the hundreds of meridians, and finally gathered in the Heavenly Veins. The two heavenly veins that Han Zhao originally condensed became more solid, and their foundation became deeper.
The energy and blood all over his body surged like ocean waves, growing stronger in cycles.
At the same time, Han Zhao's white hair, which had not recovered for a long time, finally completely returned to its original black and beautiful appearance.
"The power of this primordial and rejuvenating pill is beyond my expectations."
Han Zhao's eyes lit up. In this case, he could start practicing the Three Spirit Transformation Techniques. The sooner he could condense two clones, the sooner he could increase his training speed.
With this Replenishing Energy and Returning Void Pill, the recovery process of his Gang Qi and Qi and blood will be greatly shortened.
Coupled with the complete soul-nurturing wood that is one thousand six hundred years old, the recovery speed of mental power increases greatly.
"Let's get the soul-nurturing wood first."
Han Zhao stored each Yuan-Yuan Returning Pill in a separate porcelain bottle. Pills of this level should not be put together, as it would affect the potency.
He definitely wants to stay by himself.
According to the agreement, even if he gave Xiapin Dan, the deal would be considered completed.
However, he is not the kind of person who cares about everything. As long as he is not facing an enemy and he makes a promise, he must honor it without compromise.
So if the low-grade pill cannot cure Lin Yu's eldest brother, then Han Zhao will give him a medium-grade pill, and if that doesn't work, give him a high-grade pill.
If high-grade elixirs don't work, there's probably no need to give top-grade elixirs.
Judging from the potency of the low-grade Yuan-Builining and Void-Returning Pill just now, if it is an injury that cannot be cured by the high-grade pill, it is estimated that Lin Zhan's eldest brother will not be able to survive this time.
Han Zhao walked out of the yard, came to Lin Yu's room opposite, and knocked on the door.
Lin Yu heard the knock on the door and opened the door without putting on his shoes.
"senior!"
"I have refined the elixir. Do you want to give it to your brother yourself, or do you want me to accompany you?" Han Zhao took out a porcelain bottle from his arms.
"Refined?!" Lin Yu was surprised and happy, and took the porcelain bottle from Han Zhao with both hands. He uncorked the bottle and found a milky white pill inside.
He just sniffed it lightly and felt that there were faint signs of Qi and blood in his body growing stronger.
"What a powerful medicine!"
Lin Yu was overjoyed. Just smelling it had such an effect. If he swallowed it directly, he would be able to break through to the Five Qi realm very quickly. Even the realm-breaking elixir that was the bottleneck to becoming a saint would be completely fine.
Of course, he just thought that healing his elder brother was the key.
"This is the soul-nourishing wood promised to the seniors," Lin Yu took out a long jade box from the Xumi bag and offered it with both hands.
Even with the obstruction of the jade box, Han Zhao felt a powerful fluctuation of mental power.
He took the jade box and opened it, only to see a long black piece of wood in the jade box. At first glance, it looked like a log that had been burned into charcoal.
"It's really a soul-nurturing tree!" Han Zhao put the jade box away again and patted Lin Yu on the shoulder.
"Senior, please come with me to the Heavenly Demon Cave. Without the token, if you want to open the dragon-breaking stone at the entrance of the cave from the outside, you need at least a martial saint who has reached the Four Evil Realm to do it." Lin Yu bowed respectfully.
"That's another price." Han Zhao muttered: "But because you are so cheerful, I will do this for you for free."
"Thank you, senior. After you give the medicine to my elder brother, you can go to the heaven-level treasure house in our sect and choose freely. The key is in my elder brother's hand." Lin Yu said seriously. Although Han Zhao didn't want it, such a powerful person Moreover, he really wanted to make friends with the high-level alchemist who kept his word.
"Don't worry, your business is my business! I promise to heal his injury!" Han Zhao said with a smile on his face.
"This matter should be done sooner rather than later, let's go quickly!"
With that said, Han Zhao took the lead and walked out of the yard.
Lin Yu saw this and hurried forward to lead the way.
The two of them took advantage of the darkness to head to the Demon Cave on the top of the mountain.
A tall man in night clothes was far behind him.
Although Han Zhao noticed it, he ignored it.
Since you want to help, let’s solve it once and for all.
Soon, the two came to the top of the Demon Mountain. On the cliff, a cave entrance only more than three meters high stood alone.
After entering the cave, it was barely wide enough for two people to walk together.
After walking down for about a hundred meters, it suddenly opened up. In front of the huge stone wall, there was a huge stone door about ten meters high and five meters wide.
"Senior, this is the Broken Dragon Stone. It is an extraterrestrial meteorite discovered by the ancestors of the Heavenly Demon Sect. However, it cannot be forged, so after cutting it, it is used as a stone door. The Broken Dragon Stone is integrated and heavy..."
Lin Yu stood in front of the stone gate.
"Boom~!"
A loud noise interrupted his words.
I saw Han Zhao put his left hand into the circular hole at the bottom of the stone door, pushed hard with his fist, and the huge stone door was lifted up by him.
"..." Lin Yu rubbed his eyes.
He held up the Dragon Breaking Stone with one hand. Is this a humanoid dragon? !
Seeing Lin Yu's stunned look, Han Zhao smiled and said, "Actually, I am born with divine power!"
Seeing that the other party still didn't move, he urged: "I can't move anymore!"
Lin Yu glanced at Han Zhao's right hand behind his back, twitched the corner of his mouth, and walked into the cave.
After Han Zhao lifted up the Broken Dragon Stone, the entire huge stone door was sucked into the groove at the top.
Entering the cave, the entire cave is not big, only less than fifty square meters. There is a dark pool in the middle, occupying three-quarters of the cave.
[The demon cave that has not yet been enlightened, the depth of the demon pool contains a large amount of demon energy and a small amount of pure yin energy. It is a holy place for those who practice demon skills. 】
A system prompt appears.
"Devil Pond? Is this also a spiritual place?! There is actually pure Yin Qi!" Han Zhao's eyes widened.
At this time, he noticed a strong man in his thirties sitting cross-legged on a futon on the other side of the magic pool, facing the entrance of the cave.
This man had a majestic and resolute face, but there was no breath in his body. It was obvious that Lin Yu's eldest brother Lin Zhan had been dead for a long time.
"Brother!
"Lin Yu knelt down in front of the man and cried loudly.
"Alas... His whole body's true energy has dissipated, and even the power in his magical power has begun to decline. He has been dead for at least ten months." Han Zhao sighed, there was nothing he could do.
"Senior! I will give you everything in the Tianmo Sect! I just ask you to help me take revenge!" Lin Yu's eyes were red and his face was distorted. He took off the Xumi bag from Lin Zhan's waist and held it up with both hands.
"I can keep you safe and help you quell the civil strife in Tianmo Sect. As for revenge... I will accept Gu Wugui's life!"
Han Zhao said sternly, he was bound to get the demonic energy and pure yin energy in this demonic pool, even if he used the Krypton Life Technique, he would not hesitate.
Bang bang bang!
"Thank you, senior!" Lin Yu kowtowed three times.
Seeing Lin Yu crying and sobbing, Han Zhao thought of his elder brother whom he had never met before.
"Kaka!"
Han Zhao took a closer look at Lin Zhan's appearance and figure, and with a sound of fine bones rubbing together, he transformed into the other person's appearance.
"From today on, I will take the place of your elder brother!"
Han Zhao patted Lin Yu's shoulder and comforted him softly.
"Senior...brother!" Lin Yu threw himself to the ground, a strong-willed man, crying so hard that his whole body twitched.
"Follow me! Brother, I'll take it out on you!"
Han Zhao waved his sleeves and walked out of the Demon Cave.
