In the small courtyard covered with dense vines, there is no sunlight even during the day.
Mo Lin leaned on his sword stick and stood in front of the formation, "It's the sixth day."
The person behind him who was helping to prepare the medicinal materials straightened up and glanced at the sky, "It's getting dark soon, I should be back soon."
Granny Ma sat aside, looking at the strange medicinal materials, and then glanced at Xia Wu. This person was extremely talented, so it would be okay to pass on some medical skills to her, but passing it on to Lin Du would be a waste.
She looked at the formation pattern that was still lit.
One day, this formation will be extinguished, the gate of hell will be closed, and these people will not be able to come back.
She looked away, "Do you usually talk so little?"
Xia Tian Wuwenyan was a little surprised, "Aren't you Xijing?"
Granny Map turned her head and said, "I thought there were no people in your Supreme Sect who wouldn't make noises."
Xia Tian didn't realize anything and suddenly laughed.
Mo Lin opened his mouth to explain, "Tian Wu Xijing, I talk a lot, but I'm an idiot and always say the wrong things, so I won't say anything anymore."
It doesn't matter in front of acquaintances, but now that Granny Ma still holds the lives of fellow junior uncles and junior brothers in her hands, how can he dare to talk nonsense.
The atmosphere between the three of them in the courtyard was inexplicably stiff. Just when the atmosphere was sinking again, taking advantage of the last ray of skylight, a few fluttering little paper figures suddenly popped out of the array. Before their souls returned to their places, the sound was already loud. stand up.
"Hey, how about it! I just said we won't wait until the last day to come back!" An arrogant voice broke the calm.
"Hey, I finally saw the light. I was so scared that the ink covered my body. I finally brought in the pen and ink."
"What's so hard? That's the pen and ink that I worked so hard to cut out! Do you know how to send gifts with ghost symbols? Thank you dad quickly."
"My father is still in the world." The little paper man rushed forward and gave the paper man next to him an ink dot. In an instant, both of them looked like they had just been fished out of the ink jar.
"It's almost done." Lin Du's voice sounded, and he walked forward with his arms and legs, "If you don't return to your place, do you want to break up? Will I send you to hell again?"
A group of little people ran towards his body in trance in a hurry. Two pitch-black little people rolled and crawled, and regained their whiteness at the moment of leaving.
The four of them finally returned to their bodies.
"I was so stunned that I didn't dare to look back. The evil ghosts along the way and that way saw us rushing through the ghost gate like hungry tigers pouncing on food. They all knew that we were from above and wanted to drag us down." Yuan Ye covered us. He held his chest, feeling lingering fear.
"I almost couldn't get up." Yan Qing was not much better.
As soon as Ni Jinxuan's ghost returned, she turned to look at her senior brother excitedly, "Senior brother, it's a pity that you didn't see it. The sword struck by Fourth Senior Uncle just now was so powerful! It was even more powerful than the first sword you drew out of the sheath, Senior Brother!"
On their way back from the River Styx, they were relatively safe until they reached the Gate of Hell. However, when a few people wanted to enter the Gate of Hell, a group of evil ghosts came out of nowhere. After discovering that they were living souls, they all pounced on them. It's just a little better than the group of ghosts in the River Styx.
If they continue to fight, they will definitely not be able to get out of hell.
It was at that time that they truly saw the sword intent of a monk in the formless realm.
Even though there was only a ghost, that sword was like a rainbow piercing the sun, sweeping across with a cold murderous intent that wiped out the resentful and greedy ghosts around, looking down at the group of evil ghosts without discrimination, the sword energy was raging and would not dissipate for a long time.
Under the cover of Hou Cang, Lin Du successfully opened the hidden door and invited several people to go out of the ghost gate together.
Ordinary formation masters can naturally arrange the ghost gate formation, but once the ghost gate is opened, evil spirits will naturally take the opportunity to cause trouble and get into the ghost gate formation with the intention of returning to the human world.
Mo Lin and Xia Wushou were outside for this reason.
But none of them thought that Lin Du's ghost gate formation was by no means an ordinary ghost gate formation, but a hidden door. Ordinary ghosts could not find it if they looked inside.
The few who followed Lin to the underworld didn't notice it, but the three people outside knew it clearly.
No ghost came out, because no ghost found Lin Du's hidden door.
"If it weren't for you, senior brother, as a junior, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to keep the number one genius in swordsmanship in Zhongzhou." Ni Jinxuan continued to ramble.
Hou Cang had just returned to his body when he heard this and turned his head away. He was not used to such a topic.
"What's the point? There have been so many famous figures in sword cultivation since ancient times. Today it's me, tomorrow it's you, we are the sword cultivator of the Supreme Sect. Isn't it normal to be the first genius?" Mo Lin replied subconsciously, "What's more, it's you. Fourth Master Uncle, that’s more normal.”
Hearing this, Granny Map turned around and glanced at Mo Lin. How could Zhizhizi not speak? How can he speak?
Lin Du handed the cup of Styx water that had not melted to Granny Ma.
Granny Map lowered her head and looked at it for a while, "Is this the Styx water?"
"It's absolutely true." Lin Du replied.
Granny Ma took it, and her hands were so cold that the ice cup was sticky. She was silent for a moment, then calmly put the Styx water into her own bottle, and used her Yin energy to shatter the ice cup in her hand.
"Your body has been through the underworld. Remember to take care of it. I taught Xia Yatou how to make a potion of elixirs."
"Your elixir is the most troublesome. It requires a lot of slow-release excipients. It is a bit larger than others. She said it needs to be refined separately and she has been thinking about it for several days."
After Madam Map finished speaking lightly, she stood up and planned to enter the house. She accidentally bumped into the scene in front of her. She didn't hold back for a moment, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.
Those people who had just come out of the underworld had already been stuffed with an elixir. The sun was setting, four in a row, and they looked very familiar and steaming.
Hou Cang first looked at the smoke curling above the heads of the two boys next to him and pondered for a while. Then he raised his hand and touched the top of his head, and he became even more stiff.
He looked at the second nephew, he was about to speak, but he was hesitant to speak. He tried to use his spiritual power to make wind and blow it away, but failed. Instead, he turned into a humanoid self-propelled steam engine.
Lin Du laughed out loud, and finally Hou Cang stood in line with the three grinning children with a cold face, acting as still kettles.
Ni Jinxuan had no good relationship with Xia Tian, so she shouted directly, "Senior sister! Are you getting more excited about alchemy again?"
Xia Tian Wu apologized sincerely, "It's not this time, it's intentional this time. The yin energy lingering in the underworld for seven days is extremely heavy, so I have to strengthen it for you."
Lin Du took the elixir under the eager eyes of a group of people. Except for the difficulty in swallowing it, after swallowing and using his spiritual power to convert the elixir, it had no effect at all. He remained calm and self-possessed.
Hou Cang's heart collapsed, "Why didn't she get hot?"
Xia Wugang wanted to explain, but Lin Du had already spoken, "Because I am a more stable and reserved person."
Hou Cang:...? What does this have to do with anything!
He glared and glared, finally making Lin Du laugh wildly again. The figure who had previously been relegated to an immortal could only silently puff out white steam and become a mushroom in the corner under the setting sun.
Lin Du turned around with a smile, stroking the extra ring on his finger, and suddenly heard several people discussing their next itinerary.
"I may have to stay here for a while. Granny Map wants to pass on some unorthodox medical skills and pharmacology to me."
Mo Lin hesitated for a moment, "Should I stay with you? I'm stationed here by the way. I'm afraid there will be more evil spirits here in the future, so I should be stationed here."
Anyway, they all have the cultivation level and age that need to be practiced outside, so it won't be a big deal if they don't return to the sect.
Xia Tian was noncommittal, but Yan Qing remembered something, "Little Master Uncle, how did you tell that it was the Ghost Emperor at a glance?"
"Because there were evil ghosts following her all the way, but when she appeared, all the evil ghosts around her turned around and ran away. Logically speaking, it should be an evil ghost stronger than them."
"She is clearly an evil ghost, but she doesn't have any ghost energy in her body. She is closer to heaven."
Lin Du smiled and said, "Except for the Ghost Emperor, I can't think of anyone else."
Lin Du said, vaguely feeling that Yan Qing was definitely not just asking something like that. She rubbed the ring on her index finger with one hand and listened to their emotions.
"Then what did you and the Ghost Emperor say at that time... reincarnation?"
Lin Du pressed the ring, his face calm and calm, "I don't reincarnate, I ascend. It makes sense."
Yan Qing was suspicious, "But gods and humans can also reincarnate. When the blessings are exhausted, they will return to reincarnation with their karma. However, compared with mortal monks, the reincarnation time is too long, so we can just pretend that there is no reincarnation." "
Lin Du nodded, "You also said that compared with mortal monks, that's what you mean."
Yan Qing didn't believe it, but Lin Du was too calm, and Ni Jinxuan didn't believe it either. But the junior uncle said that to see if a person is lying, it depends on whether she dares to look directly, whether she touches her nose, blinks her eyes, or touches her hands. What a little move.
Lin Du looked so normal that no one could see any flaws in him.
"Don't look at me like that. My belief is that you only live once." Lin Du smiled and patted Jin Xuan, who looked worried and confused. "I won't be able to meet people like you in the next life. Cherish the people in front of you."
Ni Jinxuan was convinced, and it sounded reasonable.
"Then where should we go next? Senior brother and two senior sisters will join in the fun, and the rest of us will join in!" Yuan Ye noticed something and took the initiative to change the topic.
Lin Du sighed, Yuan Ye must be smart.
A group of children gathered together, Hou Cang walked up to Lin Du and said, "I heard it."
Lin Du froze, then Hou Cang continued to say, "They are not cultivated enough, but I heard them."
"Abandon reincarnation, imprison yourself in the luminous world, and steal a ray of light from the sky?"
Hou Cang stood in front of Lin Du. The white smoke above his head had not dissipated. He lowered his eyes and looked at Lin Du. "Also, the body of a person who abandoned reincarnation is actually in the River Styx. What does that mean?"
His eyebrows were sharp, and when he was condescending, he also had a heavy sense of oppression.
Lin Du had already thought of a countermeasure, "It's a long story. My heart is a little overloaded. I found a medicinal material in the River Styx. Now I need to retreat to refine the medicinal material. Granny Ma, please give me a spare room in your house."
If you are undecided about something, go into retreat to resolve it.
She raised her feet to leave, but Hou Cang used her footwork to block Lin Du's way.
Lin Du exclaimed, "Train me again! You've lost to me twice in my footwork."
She said, using the same movement, she feinted, turned around, and went up to the sky. She turned around and landed firmly behind the courtyard. She found the small room where she had lived before and found the small room where she had lived. He took out a broken wooden sign saying "Do Not Disturb in Retreat", hung it up and then arranged the formation neatly.
Hou Cang chased him to the backyard room, furious, "Lin Du! Every time you win against me, you cheat! Be careful, I will tell my master!"
"Your master, your master, your master will not blame me, she will only comfort me!"
Hou Cang: ...That's true too.
"I told you Master!"
"Can you enter Luo Ze?"
Hou Cang: ...so angry, he really couldn't get in, and Yan Ye didn't even look at him.
Although Yan Ye has never "looked" at anyone directly.
After Lin Du dealt with Hou Cang, he turned around and got on the bed.
She was not wrong, she did need some medicine, otherwise she might not be able to hold on for long.
The undead will not be reincarnated until seven years after death. After seven years, they will begin to reincarnate one after another, and finally reach the peak of spiritual cultivation within five hundred years.
She had been in seclusion for three years before digesting the treasures of heaven and earth that had been arranged for her to repair her heart.
Lin Du used his spiritual consciousness to open the storage ring. There were no spiritual stones in there, only medicine. Apart from medicine, it was spiritual liquid.
She vaguely knew that the spiritual liquid was probably from Wei Zhi's side. She had no use for it as a ghost. There were also a few bottles of pills stuffed inside.
Lin Du recalled for no reason the scene of taking pills on the first day he came to the world of cultivation.
She choked on one that day and rolled her eyes, but she had seen the elixir in the hands of Du Shao and Su Mu. The size of the elixir was not something that ordinary people would choke on if they swallowed it.
In the world, only Xia Wu and Jiang Liang would add excipients when refining elixirs to slow-release the power of the elixir. Ordinary alchemy cultivators would more often choose to use small doses, because the slow-release excipients cannot be accurately controlled, and the dosage Perhaps uncontrollable.
But only those who are skilled in art are bold and willing to delve into it. They will choose this method just to reduce the number of times Lin Du forgets to take medicine.
But there were clearly no traces of strange fire in the elixir, Jiang Liang...
Is it the fifth senior brother?
Fifth Senior Brother doesn't seem like someone who would agree to her plan.
There is no time in summer...
Lin Du held the scattered pills in his hand and carefully sorted out the memory fragments.
In front of the courtyard, the three little ones met Hou Cang's face, which seemed more lively than usual.
"Fourth Senior Uncle, Junior Senior Uncle and Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters all have to stay here. Can we still leave? There should be a lot of evil spirits in that border, right?" Ni Jinxuan was elected by two people, leaning against a table that no elder would know. The obedient figure who refused, whispered tentatively, "Can the three of us go first?"
Hou Cang looked at the two large men behind his junior nephew, and suddenly felt that the next generation of the Supreme Sect was about to end.
Do two grown men have to rely on a little girl to support them?
"I'll go with you." He coughed lightly, "Going to the border and slaying demons is our original purpose. Don't worry about the three of them."
These three were not very reliable. His sense of responsibility, which he had not had for hundreds of years, suddenly began to grow wildly, and he felt the heavy worries of his elders.
Elsewhere, Xia Tianwu looked at the pill prescriptions and asked, "Do you have any prescriptions for alchemy cultivation here?"
"Yes, some alchemy cultivators asked me about the solution to the poison. Because they were unable to kill people, they kept a lot of the pills they used to treat the sequelae of the poison in exchange. I don't make pills, and I can't make pills with this body. , these are of no use to me, but they can be used for your alchemy cultivation."
"Since I chose to teach you, I read the booklet you wrote. You are good at writing books. From now on, this secret recipe of Gu medicine can be passed down after you write it."
Xia Tian Wu took the elixir recipe over and saw several elixir recipes that he had failed to learn from his master, "Ningbi elixir? Shengyuan Huanxin elixir? Golden Crow Xuanyuan elixir? Shensiyuanzhi elixir?"
"You said that most of the poison is in the heart and the divine palace. No wonder there are so many prescriptions for delaying heart failure and replenishing the spiritual consciousness. After the poison is removed, the source is indeed easy to lose, so prescriptions for replenishing the source are also very useful. "
Xia Tian didn't understand. He raised his eyes and said sincerely, "Thank you Granny Ma, these are very useful."
