Terrifying black flames like hellfire burned every inch of the illusionary old man's soul. This black flame seemed to make anything alive in front of it so fragile...
"Uh...ahem..."
After being tortured for a while, the old man coughed twice extremely weakly, and his next words seemed to use up his last strength.
He looked at the black shadow close at hand and said calmly:
"Ahem...hehe, you won't kill him. Although I fell into your hands less than a year ago, I can see that you will never harm your own interests because of your emotions. Even though our clan's treasure house is not in the north. Continent, but it does exist. I didn’t lie to you. Killing me is enough to calm your resentment..."
"Besides, you still have a lot of time to find it in the future..."
Halfway through, the old man turned his head to look at Zhai Shuo with difficulty and said with a smile:
"As for that little guy... Hehe, with your strength, it must not be difficult to see that a cultivation foundation as strong as his, among you humans, is enough to be called rare in the world... and he even has the legendary His soul-devouring ancient body, based on these two points alone, his future achievements will definitely not be inferior to yours. Are you willing to kill such a genius?"
"What's more, now he has also practiced my Spirit Control Art. Once he grows up, he will be invincible and unstoppable. I am afraid that the entire Dou Qi Continent will crawl at his feet... Now, this good seedling will Standing in front of you like this, how to choose, I think with your wisdom, I am afraid you already have the answer in your heart..."
…
After hearing the words of the virtual old man, the black shadow fell silent...
At this time, Zhai Shuo, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground at some point, finally completed the transformation of the spirit-controlling art. A strange devouring force spread from the center of his eyebrows in all directions...
The old man Xuan Huan, who felt this aura, glanced at Zhai Shuo one last time, then raised a smile of resignation, closed his eyes, and said:
"Let's do it..."
Phew~
As soon as he finished speaking, the black shadow's right hand trembled, and then the black flames expanded, covering the old man's entire soul...
"Huh..." Beside him, Zhai Shuo let out a breath of turbid air and finally opened his eyes.
"Where is that old gentleman?" Zhai Shuo asked doubtfully. He had just woken up and looked around but did not see the figure of the illusory old man.
"Killed by me." The shadow didn't hide anything. The eyes under the black mist were looking up and down at Zhai Shuo, trying to see what was different about him from before.
"Kill? This..."
Hearing this, Zhai Shuo couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. It took him a while to recover, and secretly said that his teammates were unreliable...
"What? Do you want to avenge him?" Black Shadow leaned against the window again and smiled disdainfully.
"Although I don't know what the conflict is between the senior and the old gentleman, he gave me such a powerful technique. After successfully practicing it, I didn't have the opportunity to thank him in person. It's really a pity..." Zhai Shuo was stunned and said with a bitter smile. , even if he wanted to, he wouldn’t dare...
"Huh...without me, do you have a chance to see him?"
However, Heiying didn't buy Zhai Shuo's explanation at all, and sneered again and pressed forward step by step.
"Senior has also been very kind to me. Zhai Shuo has nothing to repay. I only hope that when I grow up, I can help senior on some important matters." When Zhai Shuo heard this, he raised his hands in fear.
Talking to such people is like walking on the edge of a knife. If you are not careful, you will be doomed...
After all, she and I are not related, so it is not impossible to put her in a bad mood and kill her to silence her.
"Hmph, you can talk and know that you still have some value." Heiying was stunned, and he was quite surprised that Zhai Shuo was so sensible.
In response, Zhai Shuo could only respond with a dry smile. For a moment, both of them fell silent, and there was a sense of embarrassment in the air...
"Tell me how you feel now." After standing quietly for a moment, the black figure turned and looked out the window and asked coldly.
What she meant was, of course, how Zhai Shuo's physical condition would be after replacing Yu Ling Jue.
Hearing this, Zhai Shuo nodded without hesitation. With a flick of his palm, a fourth-grade elixir appeared in his hand, and then he opened his mouth and slapped it into his stomach.
The next moment, as Zhai Shuo used the technique of Yu Ling Jue, the fourth-grade elixir in his body melted away as expected, and began to slowly transform into streams of extremely pure fighting spirit, surging into it. The place where Dou Jing entered his body...
During this period, he did not feel the slightest discomfort, as if it was a kind of instinctive self-digestion of the body...
"As the old gentleman said, today's Yuling Jue is only a high-level Huang-level one, and I just swallowed an antidote pill, but it was decomposed into fighting spirit by me..." Feeling the wonderful changes in his body, Zhai Shuo pursed her lips and said seriously.
"So, you can really practice by eating spiritual treasures?" Heiying was silent for a moment and continued.
"Judging from the current situation, yes, as for the other characteristics of Yuling Jue, I haven't had time to try them out yet. If the senior is interested, he may have a different answer when he finds the junior next time." Zhai Shuo nodded. road.
"Ha...who are you, and you want me to come to you?" Heiying smiled disdainfully.
Zhai Shuo was startled again when he heard this, wondering if this woman was sick? When she was talking about business, she took her somewhere else. She really didn't want to suffer any loss in words...
Isn’t that the question you asked yourself?
"Senior, you can leave an address. After a while, I will go find senior, and then I will report to you the results of the Spirit Control Art..." Zhai Shuo secretly cursed in his heart, but still had to be respectful on the surface.
After all, without her, he would indeed not be able to obtain this Spirit Control Art.
However, he still underestimated the extent of this woman's pretentiousness.
"What kind of status do you have, are you worthy of coming to me?" Black Shadow continued to sneer.
"I…"
No matter how calm Zhai Shuo is usually, he still has the urge to kill someone at this moment...
Probably seeing his embarrassment, the shadow smiled secretly, and then said grimly:
"After three months, if you can't reach Dou Ling, I will personally take your life."
Hearing this, Zhai Shuo looked up in shock, but the black shadow in front of the window had disappeared.
"I know the purpose of your change. You can't rely on the power of the Lin family now. Besides, I can come to this oasis whenever I want and leave whenever I want. If you want to survive, then upgrade me quickly! Prove your worth!"
"Also, don't try to find out my identity unless you are tired of living..."
In the void, a sinister female voice gradually faded away and slipped into Zhai Shuo's mind...
"Three months... Where can I get so many devouring things?" Zhai Shuo, who stood there blankly, shook his head with a wry smile.
If you put it this way, you really can only upgrade by taking drugs...
Otherwise, with the strength of this strange woman, once the three-month deadline is up, his only way to survive is to hide back to the Lin family...
But if he really wanted to do that, wouldn't he be laughed at by that little bitch Mu Ting? Not only that, Lin Yi would also be extremely disappointed with himself...
"No matter so much, I just want to try the heaven-defying power of this Yuling Jue!" Zhai Shuo gritted his teeth and sat cross-legged again. With a flick of his right hand, more than a dozen jade bottles appeared on his body. forward.
Since the dilapidated pavilion here is located on the northern edge of Huansha City and has been abandoned for many years, Zhai Shuo does not have to worry about anyone disturbing it.
"I didn't expect that I would one day practice this yellow-level technique..."
Looking at the weak cyclone in the palm of his hand, Zhai Shuo was surprised and said that although this Yuling Jue is currently only an advanced Huang-level technique, it can give him a sense of solidity as an intermediate Xuan-level technique...
It is indeed a heaven-defying thing that combines all the strengths of the Wan family.
After talking to himself for a moment, Zhai Shuo no longer hesitated. He tightened his palms and the porcelain bottle in his palm burst open. Three fourth-grade elixirs were thrown into his mouth at the same time!
Fourth-grade elixirs are normally used by practitioners at the Dou Ling level. With the strength of a junior great Dou Master like Zhai Shuo, if he swallowed three at a time, he would probably cause confusion in his breath and meridians. tie.
But fortunately, these problems can be directly ignored under the operation of Yulingjue...
As time went by, Zhai Shuo's two-star fighting master aura, which had only stayed for a few days, began to rise again...
…
The Meng Family is also located in the center of Huansha City.
After all, their family is not much worse than the Lin family in terms of heritage, but this situation was before Lin Yi appeared.
The balance that had been in stalemate between the two families for many years was broken by a woman. No matter who it was, they would be dissatisfied.
Therefore, the senior leaders of the Meng family have acquiesced to the arrogance and domineering behavior of the Meng family in recent years, because they also want to find an opportunity to overtake the Lin family from some chaos.
An oasis that is too peaceful would do more harm than good to them...
In the extremely luxurious hall of the Meng family headquarters, Meng Kuo, who was wearing a black shirt, was listening to the report of his subordinates with a gloomy expression. The armrests of the wooden chair in front of his waist were crushed into a puddle of powder by him.
"Young Master Meng, the Yun family simply doesn't know how high the sky is. They dare to kill members of the Meng family in public. This is undoubtedly a declaration of war against our Meng family!" A masked middle-aged man half-knelt on the ground shouted angrily. .
"What I want you to bring back..." Meng Kuo narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly, ignoring the masked man's provocative words.
"Master, I have broken into several confidential secret places of the Yun family branch, but I haven't found the thing you mentioned at all..." The masked man was stunned and said distressedly.
After hearing this, Meng Kuo thought for a moment and sneered:
"If you can't find it, it's probably with the senior members of the Yun family. I can't afford to offend those old guys for the time being, so I can only..."
"The young master is talking about that boy Yun Le?"
The masked man was stunned for a moment, and then sneered in return:
"Originally, I almost slapped him to death yesterday. In this way, the Yun family would lose an outstanding successor. It's a pity that his companion..."
Speaking of what happened next, the masked man trembled and closed his mouth.
That fearful guy simply cast a big shadow over him.
"Death in the hands of Dou Ling is not the fault of you two. Let's put this matter aside for now. It's hard to get you back. Don't go out to cause trouble anymore recently. That Yunle will always be alone." Meng Kuo rubbed his fingers and shook his head.
"Huh? Oh oh..."
The masked man was stunned for a moment, then seemed to remember something, his expression changed, and he said:
"But Master, I remember that that person only has the strength of a two-star fighting master..."
After hearing this, Meng Kuo finally slightly opened his sleepy eyes, curled his lips and said:
"Are you blind or am I stupid? A two-star fighting master killed an eight-star fighting master in an instant? Do you think it's...possible...?"
However, when Meng Kuo was about to retort, an unforgettable name suddenly came to his mind...
"Zhai Shuo..."
Looking at the young master of the Meng family who suddenly started to smile, the masked man couldn't help but shudder, and tentatively said:
"Master...what, what's wrong?"
"Haha...hahahaha..." After Meng Kuo laughed, his expression suddenly turned cold, and he slapped his big palm, which directly shook the wooden table next to him into powder.
"You said, the man in gray clothes you met yesterday had short black hair and a thin build, but you have never seen that face, right?" Meng Kuo said fiercely as he grabbed the collar of the man in front of him.
Being held in Mengkuo's hand, the masked man suddenly broke out in cold sweat on his forehead, and replied tremblingly:
"Yes, yes! I have been traveling in Huansha City for a long time. I have heard about the young geniuses from various families, and I have even seen them many times. But I can guarantee that I have never seen that young face yesterday. Have you seen...ah!"
Just as the masked man finished speaking, his body flew out of the hall uncontrollably.
Throwing the person out of his hand, Meng Kuo finally showed an expression that was indeed like this.
"Zhai Shuo... why did you come out? If you stayed in the Lin family, I really couldn't do anything to you. It's a pity... it's a pity..."
"Meng Bai!" Meng Kuo said sharply.
"My subordinate is here!" The masked man who had just been thrown out of the hall appeared in front of Meng Kuo again and responded with a somewhat palpitating respectful voice.
Because he heard from Meng Kuo's tone that something big was about to happen...
"Gather all the nine-star... oh no, I want the secret guards who are above Dou Ling. Each person will bring two more nine-star masters. Distribute them to the whole city and search for the whereabouts of the young man in gray. Once there is news, there is no need to report it. Kill them on the spot!" Meng Kuo waved his big hand and ordered through gritted teeth.
Thinking of some possibilities, he even felt the pleasure of revenge in advance...
Because in his eyes, the hatred for seizing his wife is irreconcilable!
