"Who are you anyway?"
The monkey demon stood upright with its back ridges straight, its eyes like lightning, looking down at the black bear spirit below, and questioningly asked.
Just like Xiong Shanjun in those days, he was sitting on the Grand Master's chair, dominating all directions lazily.
But today, sixty years later, the two have changed their identities.
Faced with the monkey demon's questioning, Xiong Shanjun looked stunned, then looked at the monkey demon with an innocent face, and said in confusion:
"Who am I? I am Mr. Xiong Shanjun! I don't know what the words of the mountain leader mean?"
"When the mountain leader was still a little demon, didn't he worship the mountain with the tiger demon outside? I still remember this clearly. Could it be that the mountain leader doesn't trust me, old bear?"
Pack!
Just keep pretending!
The monkey demon sneered: "Are you Xiongshanjun?"
Xiong Shanjun nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice.
The sneer on the monkey demon's face became even worse:
"If you are Lord Xiongshan, and with the blood of the earth demon [Earth Violent Bear], you can break through the core formation overnight, do you think I am a fool?"
Speaking of this, Ye Jin's eyes were slightly cold and he said in an indifferent tone:
"Tell me! Who are you! Where is the real Mr. Xiongshan!"
Standing at the door, Xiong Shanjun's huge body looks like an iron tower, which is very intimidating, but at this moment, the "iron tower" expression is very innocent.
Hearing the monkey demon's indifferent inquiry, Xiongshanjun breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly explained:
"I knew the mountain leader had this question."
"The fact that I formed an elixir was rumored by little demons outside. In fact, I was just concentrating. If you don't believe me, Chief Shan, why don't you investigate and see if there is a demon elixir in my elixir field?"
Speaking of this, Xiongshanjun exposed his breasts and opened his arms to reveal his majestic belly, as if he was allowing the monkey demon to inspect it.
As early as the first meeting, Ye Jin's spiritual sense detected that there was no golden elixir energy in Xiong Shanjun's dantian, but even so, Ye Jin still didn't believe it. He looked at the innocent-looking black bear spirit and said coldly:
"No pill formation can defeat three Zifu Perfectionists with one against three. Your Majesty, you are so capable!"
When Xiong Shanjun heard this, a strange color flashed in his eyes, and there was obvious hesitation on his face. He hesitated again and again. After gritting his teeth, he took out a jade slip from his belt and held it up with both hands. He said in a loud voice:
"This matter is all due to this unknown secret method. It is not due to my old bear's ability. Please ask the leader of the mountain to tell you clearly!"
There seemed to be some reluctance in his tone, as if the black bear spirit was not willing to offer this jade slip.
After hearing this, the expression on the monkey demon's face did not change at all. He pointed his finger and the jade slip flew into his hand.
He cast a sidelong glance at Xiong Shanjun, who looked cautious, then picked up the jade slip and placed it between his eyebrows.
As his spirit penetrated into it, the secret method recorded on this jade slip gradually emerged in his mind.
After a cursory glance, Ye Jin understood the nameless secret method here.
To put it bluntly, it is a variant of the "Demon Ape Transformation", but it is different from the Demon Ape Transformation.
If the Demonic Ape Transformation wants to explode with strength that far exceeds its original form, it must use the correspondingly powerful demonic beast essence and blood as its original power.
But this nameless secret method is different. It exchanges one's own lifespan for powerful power. The more lifespans sacrificed, the stronger the power it exchanges.
Speaking of this, Ye Jin used the Earthly Evil Technique to check the spirit of Xiong Shanjun.
It can indeed be found that Xiong Shanjun's energy is much sluggish, which is obviously caused by the abnormal loss of life span.
With the power of this nameless secret method, if Xiong Shanjun sacrifices one-third of his lifespan, he will indeed be able to explode into a level of strength that is close to the formation of a pill.
Seeing this, everything seems to make sense.
If it were anyone else, I am afraid that by this time, the suspicion of the black bear spirit would have been cleared.
But Ye Jin didn't.
He still had deep doubts about Xiong Shanjun in his heart.
There is no other reason.
It all seemed too smooth.
It was so smooth that it was as if Xiong Shanjun had known that he would ask this question and deliberately used this unknown secret to dispel Ye Jin's doubts.
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
With a flick of his finger, he threw back the jade slip that recorded this unknown secret technique.
The monkey demon turned around and sat on the Taishi chair, looked sideways at the black bear spirit who was looking down, and said in a dull tone:
"Yes, with the power of this secret method, you can suppress three Zifu Consummation and everything will be explained."
Xiong Shanjun, who had always been trembling with fear, immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he heard these words, with a look of gratitude on his rough bear face:
"The leader of the mountain is wise."
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he sat lazily on the master's chair and changed the subject just like his monkey demon back then:
"but……"
Xiong Shanjun was stunned:
"But what?"
Lying lazily on the Taishi's chair, the monkey demon narrowed his eyes and looked like he was enjoying himself. Following the rhythm, the Taishi's chair shook slowly, and the monkey demon's indifferent voice sounded in the cave:
"But if you are really Mr. Xiongshan, then I will kill you."
The black bear spirit was dumbfounded, and immediately showed a flattering smile:
"You're going to kill me if I'm really an old bear? Hahaha, you, the mountain leader, really know how to joke..."
As soon as Mr. Xiongshan finished speaking, the swaying chair suddenly stopped. The monkey demon with a look of enjoyment sat up and squinted at the black bear demon looking down, with a half-smile on his face:
"Your Majesty, do you think I'm joking with you?"
As he spoke, a golden light flew out from the monkey demon's ear, and the dazzling golden light illuminated the entire cave.
A golden needle as thick as a hair was able to grow in the wind, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a three-meter long golden stick.
The sharp tip of the stick was close to the black bear spirit's huge nose, and the sharp edge was like a blade cutting into Bear Tiger's face, causing Bear Tiger to feel the slightest pain.
The butcher knife was raised, the black bear spirit's flattering smile froze, a drop of cold sweat ran across his forehead, the corners of his lips were chapped, and he spoke in a dry tone:
"I don't know what the chief mountain leader means by this?"
"What do you mean by this?"
The monkey demon stood up from the master's chair and walked slowly to the black bear demon.
Obviously, the monkey demon is only two meters tall, and in front of the ten-meter-long Xiongshan Lord, he is no different from a small child. But such a "child" seems to be a towering mountain in the eyes of Xiongshan Lord, and the majestic and powerful aura makes him Suffocated and breathless.
Every step he took was like a heavy hammer hitting his heart, suffocating him until his face turned red.
Standing in front of the black bear spirit, the monkey monster looked at it indifferently and said coldly:
"It means that if you are really Mr. Xiongshan, you will definitely die today. If you are not, you will live today, so..."
"Do you want to live or die?"
As the monkey demon's voice fell, the top-quality magic weapon Five Elements Ruyi Stick was pressed close to the black bear spirit's throat, as if it fell, the sharp tip of the stick penetrated mercilessly.
Hearing the monkey demon's questioning and feeling the sharpness in his throat, Xiong Shanjun's face immediately showed a look of humiliation, his face turned red and he said:
"If the leader of the mountain bullies a little demon like me, aren't you afraid of being laughed at by everyone in the world?"
"Not afraid."
The monkey demon's calm expression made Xiongshanjun swallow his next words. He glanced at the black bear demon with a cold look and said coldly:
"It seems that the king has made a choice."
As soon as the words fell, I saw the Five Elements Ruyi Stick suddenly blooming with golden light, and just as it was about to fall, I heard a shout:
"Wait a moment!"
The falling trend of the Five Elements Ruyi Stick stopped abruptly. The monkey demon looked at the shouting black bear spirit with a calm face and said calmly:
"Does the king have any last words?"
This time, Xiong Shanjun's face strangely showed no fear. Instead, he looked at the indifferent monkey demon in front of him with complicated eyes. He didn't rush to reply. He looked at it for a long time, and finally sighed and said:
"How did the mountain leader figure it out?"
Ye Jin did not answer, but nodded slightly: "It seems that you are not Mr. Xiongshan."
However.
What Ye Jin didn't expect was that the black bear spirit shook his head and said:
"No, I am indeed Mr. Xiongshan."
Seeing the monkey demon frown, the black bear spirit quickly explained:
"But I'm not just Bear Tiger either."
Is it Tiger Bear but not just Tiger Tiger?
Ye Jin's heart moved slightly and asked:
"What's the meaning?"
Just listen to Xiong Shanjun continue: "I am actually from Yunding Realm."
"Yunding Tiangong?"
Xiong Shanjun was stunned for a moment and nodded: "Yes, it is the predecessor of Yunding Heavenly Palace, a big world like the Qingming Realm - Yunding Realm."
"The Genting Realm has been broken for ten thousand years. Do you mean that you have lived for tens of thousands of years? Do you think I am stupid or do you think I am stupid?"
Ye Jin narrowed his eyes, his eyes flashed with cold light, and he looked at Xiong Tiger dangerously.
Ruoyou Ruowu's cold and murderous intention made Xiongshanjun's scalp numb. He quickly waved his hand and said:
"The leader of the mountain clearly knows that I am indeed from the Yunding Realm. I was once a mountain-protecting spirit beast. When the Yunding Realm was shattered, my body collapsed, but my soul came to the Qingming Realm through the space crack by chance and slept for thousands of years. , until he accidentally woke up a thousand years ago and possessed a violent earth bear."
Because he was worried that the monkey demon would kill him in pain, Xiong Shanjun said these words very quickly and contained a huge amount of information.
Not only that, I don’t know what secret technique Xiong Shanjun cast, but a shadow loomed from his huge body.
Its fat is like that of a bear, white and rough (cu), and it is extremely powerful and can pull up trees. It is called bear scab (pi).
Through this phantom, Ye Jin could feel a strong sense of vicissitudes of life. Not only that, the Netherworld Technique could clearly see the weakness of this phantom, which was even more serious than Ming Po's soul.
Ye Jin was a little surprised that the soul was so weak that it was still alive.
Seeing this, Ye Jin had already believed Xiong Shanjun's words, but when she suddenly heard the words "mountain-protecting spiritual beast", Ye Jin seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly looked at the black bear spirit with a strange expression, and said road:
"Mountain-protecting spirit beast? What mountain are you protecting? Mount Putuo?"
Speaking of this, Ye Jin glanced sideways at the black bear spirit. Could this monster really be the black bear spirit in Journey to the West?
But it was obvious that Ye Jin was overthinking it. Xiong Shanjun looked at the monkey demon with a puzzled look on his face:
"Putuo Mountain? No, I am the guardian spirit beast of Yunding Mountain."
Ye Jin nodded, without explaining too much, and asked another question:
"What is your original state?"
Xiong Shanjun answered honestly:
"Dharma."
Sixth level of Dharma!
Ye Jin's eyes showed a look of ascertainment.
The soul has gone through space cracks and has not died for thousands of years. Only the sixth-level Yuan Shen Dharma, second only to the immortal, has this power.
It's just that Xiong Shanjun's soul was also severely injured and almost incurable. Otherwise, the dignified sixth-level Dharma Master would not have let Ye Jin manipulate him.
Thinking of this, Ye Jin couldn't help but feel doubts in his heart. He looked at Xiong Shanjun and said doubtfully:
"With your ability, if you leave Bihan Island, even if you don't go to the Middle-earth continent, you can find the treasures of heaven and earth to heal the soul anywhere in the Canglan Sea, right?"
"Why did you stay on Bihan Island for so long?"
Even if the soul is severely injured, Ye Jin believes that with the powerful foundation of the sixth level Dharma, if Xiong Shanjun rebuilds his cultivation, even if he cannot return to the sixth level, he will definitely be able to transform into the fifth level. Even if the transformation is not possible, there will definitely be no problem in forming the elixir.
But looking at Xiong Shanjun's current appearance, sixty years ago he was half a step into concentration, and sixty years later he was just a step into concentration.
The demon seemed to have no intention of curing the injury of his soul at all, not only to heal himself, but also to rebuild his realm.
why is that?
Faced with the monkey demon's questioning, Xiongshanjun remained silent.
Ye Jin was not in a hurry, just looked at him, waiting for his answer.
For a moment, the cave fell into silence.
I don’t know how long it took, but Xiong Shanjun, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke and said a name that Ye Jin never expected.
"Because - Xiao Ginseng Essence."
Because of Xiao Ginseng Essence!
Suddenly hearing these three words, Ye Jintong's eyes suddenly zoomed in. Then, his whole body felt like an electric shock. An idea flashed in his mind and he blurted out:
"The Little Ginseng Essence also comes from the Genting Realm?!"
Although the sentence is a question, the tone is full of doubtful affirmation.
As if he had expected that the monkey demon would guess this, Mr. Xiongshan nodded silently:
"yes."
After receiving Xiong Shanjun's affirmative reply, Ye Jin looked calm, but deep down in her heart, there was already a storm.
Xiao Ginseng Essence actually comes from Genting Realm!
!
This answer was both beyond Ye Jin's expectations and within Ye Jin's mind.
As early as when Ye Jin came into contact with the little ginseng essence, the little ginseng essence actually caused the Jamfu Treasure Tree to react strangely. Ye Jin knew that the origin of the little ginseng essence was definitely not simple.
Until now, Ye Jin has never encountered a situation where ginseng whiskers can refine Qi threads like Xiao Ginseng Jing.
Even Lu Pheasant's cockscomb was caused by his heaven-defying magical power [Spirit Devouring], and it was at the cost of Lu Pheasant's life.
And what about Xiao Ginseng?
One stick a month, almost no consumption.
It's obviously just an ordinary ginseng that transforms into a demon. Like the mandrill, he is the lowest level demon. Not only does he have the magical "little ginseng" sixth sense, but he also has magical powers such as earth escape and wood escape.
Among them, the Wood Escape Technique was learned by Xiao Shenjing when she broke through her concentration.
In other words, almost every breakthrough that Xiao Shen Jing makes must be accompanied by magical insights!
When he thought of this, Ye Jin looked sharply at the black bear spirit and asked:
"What on earth is the little ginseng spirit that turns into a demon?"
Ginseng essence?
Can ordinary people take ginseng to transform demons and have this effect?
If Ye Jin believed that, then his head must have been caught in the door!
Due to the urgent mood, the monkey demon's expression was a little ferocious, and his eyes were fierce and cold. Even the former Dharma Demon Saint, Xiong Shanjun couldn't help but take a step back and replied honestly:
"[Ginseng Fruit] is transformed."
Hearing the three words "ginseng fruit", Ye Jin could not hide her shock and almost said four words in horror:
"Great Immortal Zhenyuan?!"
…
