Chapter 346 Resurrection Pill!The five ghosts transport technique is in hand!
The Xunfeng was like a turbulent wave, and the wind swept through the clouds, swallowing the surroundings suddenly, destroying a large number of artillery, machine guns and other war weapons in an instant.
The soldiers stared at everything in front of them in horror, their hands and feet were cold, and they fled backwards with fear on their faces.
midair.
The white-robed old man's eyes were blue and his sleeves were like wings. He avoided a shell and activated a purple talisman again.
In an instant, thunder and lightning flashed, black clouds shrouded, and a large number of purple thunder condensed and blasted down.
It directly shattered the last bit of morale of the soldiers.
And at the same time that the Maoshan Taishang elder was showing his might.
rear of the battlefield.
Liu House.
Dong Gui, masked all over in black, single-handedly, according to Ye Yushi's order, rescued the eldest son of the Liu family who was under house arrest.
The two got rid of the Liu family chasing soldiers behind them.
In a dark alley.
"Please leave the name of the martyr! I must thank you very much!"
The eldest son clasped his fists and said.
However, the masked man just waved his hands, leaped without looking back, and disappeared after jumping over a stone wall.
Before leaving, there was only one sentence left:
"Liu Du will die soon, even if he comes back, it won't help. If the eldest son can't seize this opportunity, the gods will not be able to save him!"
The eldest son was startled.
Looking at the direction Dong Gui left, he was thoughtful.
Immediately also quickly left.
He dared to challenge the two most powerful lieutenants in the army after his father Liu Dutong was captured by Ye Yushi, and fight for power and profit, and there would naturally be someone in the city to support him.
"Although this masked man rescued me, his motives were not pure... I don't know who sent him here..."
The eldest son didn't think too much, he still had a lot of things to do now.
……
……
"Brother, what is the realm of the Supreme Elder?"
Ye Yushi asked Xu You.
At this time, the dust has settled here.
Zhang Bold and other guard soldiers are cleaning the battlefield.
As for the young son of Liu Dutong's family, although he was captured, he was released by Mao Zhong after some 'education'.
After all, it is a decent family, it is impossible to directly kill the other party in public.
The head teacher, Mao Zhong, explained the interests of the 'Xuanmen's Gate' and the 'Sealing Formation' to this young man who was a little frightened.
Ye Yushi was not sure whether this young master believed it or not.
But the young man was undoubtedly terrified, no matter what Mao Zhong said, he would nod obediently, sweating all over his body.
"The realm of the Supreme Elder... at least above the level of God?" Xu You said uncertainly.
Immediately, he and Ye Yushi looked at Uncle Jiu next to him.
As we all know, Uncle Nine is well-versed in classics and classics, and he is well-informed.
Uncle Jiu pondered for a moment, then also shook his head:
"I don't know the exact state of his old man, but what is certain is that the elder Taishang had already joined the Maoshan sect in the Ming Dynasty!"
"Ming Dynasty?!"
Ye Yushi couldn't hide his surprise.
Isn't that an old monster that has lived for hundreds of years...
"Are there many old gods like the Supreme Elder?"
Ye Yushi couldn't help asking.
After the old man in white robe cast the purple talisman just now, two super high combat powers of [[-]] and [[-]] broke out one after another.
The numbers are exaggerated.
But compared with the earth-shattering power that those two talismans can exert in the hands of the old man, it seems reasonable.
The thunder talisman is also significantly more lethal than the wind talisman.
To be honest, even facing Shi Jian, Ye Yushi, who has an alienation disease and many special talents, will not despair.
But the old man in white robe would definitely be able to kill him instantly.
If there are too many monks like this...
"rare."
Fortunately, Uncle Jiu gave the answer Ye Yushi wanted.
"Oh." Uncle Jiu sighed in a low voice:
"If the Supreme Elder has a lot of high-level cultivation, I think the current practice world will not decline to this point."
"Even when the Xuanmin Gate was established back then, the Supreme Elders were the main force, but it's a pity that many old seniors from various sects and sects have been eliminated over the years..."
Ye Yushi nodded.
The status of the Maoshan Supreme Elder is obviously detached.
Just after using the shocking method, which had the final effect, he used the volleying void crossing technique and left in a hurry.
Completely ignored the meaning of Mao Zhong, Yin Changfeng and others.
Regarding this, a group of Maoshan disciples did not dare to show any dissatisfaction, including the always proud Shi Jian, they all shouted, "Respectfully send off the Supreme Elder".
Speaking of which, Ye Yushi hadn't seen the [Void Crossing Technique] in any of Uncle Nine's movies.
I have seen it in another movie that is also based on the Republic of China, zombies... and other elements.
That movie is called [The Way of the Demon].
The plot is a mess, and the leading actor is not likable.
But the female characters are more beautiful and impressive.
Especially in the sect where the heroine belongs, all members are female, except for a few green leaves used to set off, the rest of the female disciples are all peachy, like clouds of real beauties.
And because of avoiding the world for many years, and because the exercises do not pay attention to cutting off love and desire, the female disciples in the sect are more or less rosy, and they behave very well.
This kind of female sect that only existed in YY novels, that man could not love it.
Ye Yushi remembered that the senior sister of the sect where the heroine belonged used the volley crossing technique to play tricks on the head of the sect next door.
"Nephew Ye, you are able to successfully expand the Xuan Min's Gate this time. Your contribution outweighs your faults. The matter of Ji Kui has been exposed. The reward for you from the sect party will be sent to Renjia Town soon."
Mao Zhong came over and said to Ye Yushi.
"...Thank you, Headmaster!" Ye Yushi saw that Mao Zhong still had something to settle, following his gaze, he looked at Shi Jian, who was expressionless.
soon.
Most of the Maoshan disciples, including Ye Yushi, dispersed one after another.
Standing in the arena, Mao Zhong, Yin Changfeng and the elders surnamed Mao all focused their eyes on Shi Jian.
Unlike Mao Zhong and Elder Mao, who were clearly a family member, Yin Changfeng hesitated to speak, with a somewhat embarrassed expression on his face.
"I don't know if the head teacher left me alone. Is there any important sect to discuss?" Shi Jian said lightly.
When Mao Zhong heard this, his tone was a little indifferent, "Shi Jian, hand over the thousand-year-old corpse pill that belongs to Elder Yin!"
"Oh." Shi Jian sneered:
"Why can't I understand what the head teacher is saying?"
"Didn't I get this Thousand Year Corpse Pill with my own ability after I rescued Elder Yin?" Shi Jian asked Yin Changfeng with narrowed eyes.
"Hmph, without you being in the way, how could the thousand-year-old bronze-armored corpse break through to the silver-armored corpse so smoothly? And also have the ability to manipulate group corpses?" Mao Zhong stepped forward and shouted:
"This seat knows that you are also proficient in controlling corpses in addition to Lei Fa, so don't think that your hands and feet are flawless!"
"Really?" Shi Jian's face remained unchanged, he glanced at Yin Changfeng who had been silent all the time, and said calmly:
"Then may I ask the head teacher, do you have evidence?"
"You know this well!" Mao Zhong's face turned cold:
"When you and I have reached the realm, why do you need to make those unnecessary sophistry?"
"Martial Nephew Shi!" Looking at Shi Jian who was fearless facing him, the head teacher, and the two elders, Mao Zhong's tone was rarely solemn:
"I admit that you are born with lightning roots, and if you go up with Lei Fa, no one in Maoshan can surpass you."
"But regarding alchemy, you can't be ranked in the sect!"
"I know you want to refine the Resurrection Pill and save your disciple... Give me the Millennium Corpse Pill, Ice Soul and other heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and I'm [-]% sure that the pill will be two! When the time comes, I will share one with you." , I will also send people to collect the phoenix blood, so you don't need to worry about it!"
The arena fell silent.
After a few breaths.
"... Shi Jian doesn't need the teacher to worry about his own affairs." Shi Jian's face was as cold as ice for thousands of years:
"Although my alchemy attainments are not outstanding, I am sure that I can refine the Resurrection Pill."
"I am also sure that the pill will be two, and I will give one to the head teacher when the time comes!"
Shi Jian didn't believe Mao Zhong's words.
In today's dharma-ending era, it is extremely difficult to collect whether it is the thousand-year-old corpse pill or the blood of the phoenix.
Resurrection Pill is a prescription handed down from ancient times, it is not difficult to refine, but the material is hard to find, and the yield rate of the pill is extremely low.
A furnace of materials can often only be refined into one Resurrection Pill.
Mao Zhong said that he could use one alchemy material to 'make two pills', and his certainty was as high as [-]%. Shi Jian absolutely didn't believe it.
It takes a lot of luck to do that.
And even if Mao Zhong said the truth.
That also has a [-]% chance of failing.
At that time, if only one Huanhun Pill was refined, how could Mao Zhong not use it to save his son Yimao, but give it to Shaojian instead?
opposite.
The complexions of Mao Zhong and Elder Mao instantly darkened.
Yin Changfeng shook his head slightly, not surprised by Shi Jian's answer.
The two had always been at odds with each other, and with Shi Jian's temperament, he couldn't give in to Mao Zhong.
"Teacher, if there is nothing else, I will leave first!"
After Shi Jian finished speaking, blue electric lights appeared on his legs, and he cast Thunder Tunnel directly to leave.
Mao Zhong, who was left with a livid face, stood where he was.
……
at the same time.
Just after the expansion of the Xuanmu Gate on the Guangdong-Guangzhou side.
Dragon Tiger Mountain.
Tianshi Mansion.
The current Celestial Master Zhang came to a secluded bamboo hut, looking at a clear blue lake, and asked the former Celestial Master who was fishing:
"Father, you must have sensed the changes on Maoshan... Why don't we try to expand the sealing formation on Longhushan?"
The old heavenly master's slightly muddy eyes were as calm as the lake, and his voice was hoarse:
"Why expand?"
"...At the end of the Qing Dynasty, our Longhu Mountain suffered heavy losses due to the establishment of the Xuanmu Gate. In the eyes of the world, most people seem to only know the Maoshan School, but not Longhushan. I think..."
"Okay." The old heavenly master interrupted:
"Back then, after paying such a high price, the five Xuanmin gates were successfully established. How can the sealing formation be moved at will? Do you really think it's that easy?"
"Maoshan this time..." the old Tianshi said with emotion:
"I'm afraid it's because of helplessness that I made such a bad move!"
"What's wrong?" Zhang Tianshi frowned.
……
Renjia Town.
Renfu.
"I didn't expect the head teacher and the elders to come here in person!"
Ye Yushi solemnly welcomed Mao Zhong and Elder Mao.
A smile appeared on Mao Zhong's face, and he patted Ye Yushi's shoulder:
"Master Nephew Ye, you did a good job this time!"
After entering the lobby.
Some preoccupied Mao Zhong didn't exchange too many greetings, and took out a few things:
"This is the cultivation method of [Five Ghosts Transporting Technique]. It contains the personal experience of the elders in the sect. If you don't understand anything, you can ask Elder Mao by performing the origami crane technique!"
"There are also these bottles of pills, namely Yangqi Pill, Mingxin Pill, and Dust Pill, which are enough to support Nephew Ye to break through to the middle stage of Qi training."
"Besides, the sect also has an important task to entrust to you, Martial Nephew Ye!" Mao Zhong's expression turned serious.
"Despite the orders of the head teacher, I will go through fire and water, and I will die!" Ye Yushi's tone was serious.
"... Now, although the pressure of the sealing formation has been relieved, it is not a long-term solution." Mao Zhong paused, and did not reveal too much inside information to Ye Yushi.
continued:
"Our Maoshan faction really needs a secular force now... I think Nephew Ye is very suitable for you!"
"Cao Ying's original territory has now been included in the Xuanmin's Gate. I hope that Nephew Ye can help the sect defend it!"
"...Understood! Please rest assured Headmaster, I will not let you down!" Ye Yushi assured.
This is exactly what he expected.
Mao Zhong wanted to have someone of his own to withstand the pressure of Liu Dutong and other warlords, and to do things that the sect didn't like to come forward directly.
He also needs the support of the Maoshan faction.
The two sides hit it off.
