The cold wind pouring in from Tianling Gai made Xuan Fengnian shiver violently.
What followed was a feeling that was ten thousand times more painful than Ling Chi!
This is because the venom released by the natal Gu is so terrifying that it makes his pain nerves hundreds of times more sensitive than before.
Not to mention a big hole opened on the top of his head by a natal Gu insect, even if someone took an embroidery needle and pricked him casually, it would be almost the same as a thousand arrows piercing his heart.
The pain was extremely severe. One moment it made Xuan Fengnian faint, but the next moment it stimulated him and he woke up from the pain. His whole body was in great pain.
But at this moment, the natal Gu had opened its dark mouthparts, plunged into Xuan Fengnian's head and began to feast on it.
Xuan Fengnian died suddenly in extreme pain.
His skin color began to turn black and blue rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At the same time, blood gushed out from his seven orifices instantly.
His body was kneeling on the spot motionless, with an extremely miserable expression, as if he was kneeling down to repent for the innocent people who died in his hands.
Seeing that he was completely dead, Ye Chen snorted coldly and said, "You will deserve to die if you do so many evil things!"
At this time, Mai Chengxing on the side said flatteringly: "Master Ye, since you can control his natal Gu, you must subdue it. It will be of great use in the future!"
Ye Chen snorted coldly: "What use do I have for this bug that eats human brains?"
Mai Chengxing hurriedly said: "Master Ye doesn't know something. This natal Gu is a treasure that Xuan Fengnian has raised for at least 20 or 30 years. After living for 20 or 30 years, this thing has already become omnipotent in heaven and earth. Okay.
It can be regarded as a magic weapon that Xuan Feng has cultivated for half his life!"
Ye Chen sneered and said, "If I keep this damn thing, do I have to feed it human brains?"
Mai Chengxing was at a loss for words. He hesitated for a long time before he said, "I just feel that killing that Gu insect like this is really a loss..."
Ye Chen said disdainfully: "I, Ye Chen, have not fallen to the point where I need to rely on this kind of thing to survive!"
As he said this, he held the thunder order in his hand and shouted: "Thunder is coming!"
Immediately afterwards, another thunderbolt came down and instantly struck Xuan Fengnian's Tianling Cap.
In an instant, Xuan Fengnian and his natal Gu were all turned into powder by lightning!
A gust of wind blew by, and the powder that Xuan Fengnian had turned into suddenly disappeared into ashes and completely dissipated in the air.
Mai Chengxing stared at all this with his mouth open and sighed in his heart: "Today, I really witnessed a miracle... This Young Master Ye is indeed a person with great supernatural powers! No wonder he has a way to make Lai Qinghua twenty years younger.
!What does it mean to have such a great magical power that can summon thunder from the sky and make people rejuvenate?"
Ye Chen looked at Mai Chengxing at this time and said calmly: "You helped me capture Xuan Fengnian with merit, but you are treacherous and self-interested. In addition, you helped my enemies come to Jinling to find my whereabouts. Although you have merit, you still can't help me."
It's not enough to offset all the mistakes, so from now on, I will put you and Mike under house arrest in Aurous Hill, and I will let you go after I deal with Su Chengfeng."
Mai Chengxing's expression was very bitter, but he also knew very well that it was useless to beg Ye Chen for mercy, and it was useless to express loyalty to Ye Chen.
This is because Ye Chen has already had a balance in his heart. As a result, he has already determined that he will never change his decision because of others' begging for mercy or submission.
The Xuan Fengnian just now is the best example.
Therefore, the best choice for him right now is to be obedient and let Ye Chen do whatever he wants.
Although house arrest is painful, at least you can save your life.
If he cooperates well with Ye Chen in the future, he may still have a chance to make up for his mistakes.
So he bowed down and said respectfully: "I have no objection to Master Ye's decision. Everything is decided by Master Ye..."
Ye Chen nodded with satisfaction and said, "In that case, then come back with me."
Mai Chengxing quickly agreed. When he raised his head and stood up, he suddenly let out an exclamation.
"Eh?! Could it be that Xuan Fengnian was struck by lightning and his relics were thrown out?"
After Ye Chen heard this, he subconsciously looked at the place where Xuan Fengnian was struck to pieces by lightning, and sure enough he saw something the size of a duck egg on the ground, all grey-brown.
He couldn't help frowning and said: "How can the relic be so big? I think it might be a kidney stone?"
"That's not right..." Mai Chengxing said, walking over involuntarily and picking up the gray-brown thing.
He looked at it carefully for a moment and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh my God! This... this is actually ambergris!"
"Ambergris?" Ye Chen frowned. He had asked Qin Gang to help find ambergris a few days ago, but he didn't expect that Xuan Fengnian had a piece of it on his body.
However, Ye Chen didn't care too much.
Because, ambergris is actually not that rare.
Rich people can buy it at any time as long as they are willing to spend money.
Thinking back to the time when I met Yu Jinghai at the Zhenbao Pavilion auction, there was a Song Dynasty Song and Crane backflow incense burner in the Zhenbao Pavilion. In order to sell the Songhe backflow incense burner at a high price, the auctioneer specially equipped it with
I bought two boxes of ambergris.
What Ye Chen needs to make alchemy is ambergris that is at least ten thousand years old. Ordinary stuff has no meaning at all.
So, he said to Mai Chengxing: "This thing should be nothing unusual. I don't know why Xuan Fengnian carries such a thing with him."
Mai Chengxing hurriedly said: "Master Ye, you don't know something. If it is ordinary ambergris, it is generally waxy, and it is relatively flammable. As long as it is dry ambergris, it can be burned by just putting it on fire.
Yes, but this area is a bit special."
As he spoke, he continued: "After being struck by your thunder, even the flesh and blood body of Xuan Fengnian was turned into powder, but this ambergris was still intact. This shows that this piece of ambergris can be preserved intact."
The incense has turned into fossils!"
"Turn into a fossil?!"
Ye Chen exclaimed, stepped forward and asked, "Are you sure this thing is really a fossil?"
Mai Chengxing handed the piece of ambergris to Ye Chen and explained: "Master Ye, please see for yourself, this thing is now extremely hard and dense, and it is no longer waxy. It is more like stone. If
Even if the texture is relatively special, I might not recognize it as ambergris."
Ye Chen asked curiously: "Have any fossils of ambergris been found before?"
Mai Chengxing hurriedly said: "Yes, there is, but it was abroad, and as soon as it came out, it was bought by a mysterious person at a very high price."
Ye Chen asked him: "Do you have research on ambergris?"
Mai Chengxing nodded and explained: "Ambergris has a strong medicinal effect, and can make people get rid of distracting thoughts and relax completely. It is very suitable to use it to enter a meditative state. When deducing the Eight Diagrams of the I Ching, there are many
It helps a lot, so most Feng Shui masters are very interested in ambergris. Even if you don’t have money, you still need to buy some incense containing ambergris. I usually have some on hand, so I did some research.
.”
With that said, Mai Chengxing added: "Most of the ambergris on the market are obtained by hunting sperm whales in the deep sea, but the ambergris obtained through these two methods will not last long."
After a pause, Mai Chengxing continued: "I heard that some masters in the past needed ambergris that was thousands or even ten thousand years old to use as medicine."
"But this kind of thing is so rare. The only way to find it is to go to the bottom of the deep sea."
"This is because humans thousands of years ago did not have the ability to kill sperm whales. At that time, after the sperm whales died, they sank to the bottom of the sea, forming a whale fall. After the bones were eaten by sea creatures, the ambergris would sleep on the bottom of the sea.
Buried in the sand."
"However, finding a piece of ambergris buried in the sea for more than ten thousand years is not much different from finding a needle in a haystack, so almost no one can do it. The ambergris fossils discovered before are said to be due to geological movements.
It was melted into the rock layer tens of thousands of years ago and only reappeared in the past few years."
Ye Chen was overjoyed. If this piece of ambergris could really reach the level of a fossil, it would have to be at least tens of thousands of years old. In this case, this thing might really be able to meet his needs for refining the Peiyuan Pill!
