There is order in everything, but there is no sleep in the mountains.
In this flash, more than half a year has passed.
Qin Shaoyou squatted attentively in front of the earthly flame furnace. Inside the furnace was condensed a radiant white elixir, which was already at the last moment before it was released from the furnace.
"It's done!"
He screamed in extreme excitement, and just when he was about to push open the furnace cover and take out the elixir, the entire Kaiyang Island actually shook.
Yes, the whole floating island is shaking!
Qin Shaoyou was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat and quickly forced himself to focus on the elixir.
He jumped into the air and caught the elixir that was almost exploded in his hand.
The Water Spirit Pill is a ninth-grade Xuan-level elixir that was refined after the second round of the Xuan-grade Qingshui Pill. It is also one of the key elixirs for him to completely resolve the unsatisfactory spiritual root attributes.
Looking at the hard-won pill in his hand, Qin Shaoyou couldn't help but feel a little scared.
If something really went wrong just now, all his preparations for the past five years would be in vain.
This is absolutely unacceptable to him.
After taking a breath, he carefully put the elixir into a jade box, then slowly landed on the ground and looked around.
At this time, Kaiyang Island had returned to normal, but the broken branches outside the Qinglin Heart Protection Formation told him that what just happened was not his imagination.
"Erha?!"
"Erha!"
Qin Shaoyou shouted twice, and the monkey jumped out of the water.
"What happened just now?"
"Zhizhizhi...."
The red-eyed monkey made a few gestures, which meant that it didn't know what was happening.
This monkey has been practicing with Qin Shaoyou in the past few years, but it has lost the aggressiveness before, and its spiritual intelligence is getting higher and higher now, and it can now have simple communication with Qin Shaoyou.
Qin Shaoyou frowned slightly, picked up the wine gourd on his waist and drank a few sips.
"You clean up, I'll go out and take a look."
The monkey nodded, obediently like a servant.
Although it no longer causes trouble like before, Qin Shaoyou still does not allow it to leave the Qinglin Heart Protection Formation, and almost cultivates it into a butler-like existence.
Every time after refining elixirs or refining weapons, he would ask the monkey to clean the yard.
After leaving Taolin Yaju, Qin Shaoyou flew straight towards the edge of Kaiyang Island.
Soon, he came to the giant stone tablet more than ten feet high that tied the Heavenly Dao Lock.
The impact of the shaking of the floating island just now has not completely subsided, and the giant chain connecting Kaiyang Island and Chaoyang Island below is still shaking slightly.
On the stone tablet, the words Kaiyang Island exude a vague Taoist charm. The only shortcoming is that there are many cracks in the groove where the words are opened.
Qin Shaoyou didn't know if this had something to do with the strange movement just now, but he didn't have time to enter the inner sect, and he had never heard that the floating island could shake.
What the hell is going on?
Unable to control his inner curiosity, Qin Shaoyou hesitated for a while, then gently stretched out his hand and pressed it on the stone tablet.
He closed his eyes, used his spiritual thoughts, and slowly and tentatively explored the inside of the stone tablet.
The wind seemed to have stopped for an instant.
In front of Qin Shaoyou's "eyes", a white mist appeared. The mist was swirling and turning, which was somewhat similar to the scene of the sea of clouds in the south of the sky.
He walked forward, and after an unknown amount of time, the white mist in front of his eyes finally faded, and he came to a heavenly road made of complicated spiritual patterns.
"This is?!"
Qin Shaoyou was greatly surprised.
He didn't have time to think deeply about what the road to heaven was in front of him. As soon as he stepped on it, he found that he had reached the end of the road.
At this moment, he looked back and saw clearly that where he was standing just now, there was actually the word Kaiyang floating in the air!
Could it be...
This Heavenly Road is the Heavenly Dao Lock?!
Qin Shaoyou was suddenly startled, and he hurriedly looked ahead. Sure enough, beyond the land under his feet, there were countless heavenly roads extending outwards, all of which were linked to Tianshu, Tianxuan, and Tianji.
, Tianquan, Yuheng, Yaoguang six islands.
But at the intersection of these heavenly roads, there is a shining golden circular light mask, and inside the light mask, there seems to be a white bracelet.
"This is..."
"A magic weapon?"
Qin Shaoyou was a little surprised. Inside this huge Chaoyang Island, there was actually a golden magical weapon.
The magic weapon was locked by an extremely deep seal, and he could not see clearly.
What kind of magical weapon is it that requires the entire Yuan Ling Sect to be suppressed as a sealed object?
At this moment, the bracelet seemed to have discovered him. Suddenly, there was a thunderous sound in his mind, and a huge suction force came from the seal, trying to suck him into it!
Countless strong winds began to condense around him, and the surging spiritual energy surged wildly, making Qin Shaoyou's clothes rustle!
His bun was loose and his waist-length hair was fluttering in the wind. He looked like he was possessed!
"No!"
Qin Shaoyou was horrified. Just when he thought his life was about to end, all the surrounding sky roads lit up at the same time, gathering an extremely terrifying pressure, and suddenly rushed towards the bracelet.
Then, an extremely huge force came from the giant stone tablet, and he was blasted away!
"puff!"
He spit out blood, drew an arc in the air, and fell heavily to the ground!
At the same time, the entire Yuan Ling Sect felt obvious vibrations again, and a low rumbling sound came from inside Chaoyang Island.
"I'll go..."
He rubbed his chest, looked at the stone tablet with a horrified expression, and immediately took a few steps back.
"Knowing too many things won't do you any good!"
A low and familiar voice came from behind him.
Qin Shaoyou was shocked and immediately stood up from the ground.
"Master..."
He was frightened and frightened, lowering his head and not daring to look into Kang Xingliu's eyes.
Kang Xingliu's face was ugly. It was obvious that he was the one who saved Qin Shaoyou just now.
This is the first time in his history that he has been so serious.
"Well, I don't want to worry about too many things, and I hope you don't either..."
"Come with me, the leader wants to see you."
There was something in Kang Xingliu's words. He shook his head helplessly, grabbed Qin Shaoyou and took him to Tianshu Island.
Qin Shaoyou originally wanted to ask what the seal was, but when Kang Xingliu said this, he had to swallow his words.
His master was right, that kind of secret was far beyond the scope of a disciple with his level of cultivation to pry into.
The two of them were silent all the way, and soon arrived at Tianshu Island.
With Kang Xingliu's leadership, there is no need to enter or exit from the Yuntai.
The two of them were speeding along and soon saw a majestic and solemn hall.
The main hall is called "Yunshang Hall", and it is the place where seven real people discuss sect affairs on weekdays.
Seeing this, Qin Shaoyou immediately felt the seriousness of the situation and no longer dared to show any disrespect.
The main hall was very empty, like a giant cave. He followed Kang Xingliu and entered, only to find that six other real people had already arrived.
"Okay, everyone is here, let's get started."
Xiao Jian stood at the top with his hands behind his back, and behind him stood Li Changan and Bai Xiyao.
Besides them, Qin Shaoyou also saw Mo Feiyun and Zhou Muhan.
In the main hall, apart from their five direct disciples, there were seven real people.
After everyone heard this, they stood on both sides.
Xiao Jian scanned the crowd and said loudly:
"Not long ago, the Xuantian Sect sent people to summon us again. They have completed the reinforcement of the seal of the Demon Realm."
"At the same time, according to the agreement of our four major immortal sects, the portal to enter the demon realm will be opened in one month. The five of you are the winners of the last alchemy conference. This time, you will represent our Yuan Ling Sect and go to Northern Xinjiang to participate in this event.
This is the Demon Realm trial!”
Qin Shaoyou was speechless to the extreme. He just wanted to practice with peace of mind, but he was sent to participate in some trial. Wasn't this a trap for him?
You know, he is still stuck at the bottleneck of the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
This demon realm doesn't sound like a benevolent place. Are you going here to deliver food to the demon beasts?
"As you command!"
Except for Qin Shaoyou, the other four people responded in unison.
"Master, disciple..."
"This disciple's cultivation is still shallow..."
He said bravely.
Everyone's eyes suddenly focused on him. Ye Wuji sneered and said disdainfully:
"I remember that Uncle Lin Jun was alone when he was surrounded by thousands of demon cultivators and never retreated. I didn't expect that today, his demon-killing bow would be in the hands of a coward who retreated before fighting. It's really sad!"
"Master, if he doesn't want to go, then let him hand over the Demon-Slaying Bow!"
Everyone was silent. Kang Xingliu frowned and was about to speak, but Xiao Jian said first:
"The Demon-Slaying Bow has hunted down many monsters. The evil spirit on it will make those monsters afraid, so you will not be in any danger."
"Besides, I heard from your master that you have encountered a bottleneck in your cultivation. This trip to the Demon Realm is an opportunity for you to find a breakthrough. If you really don't want to go, I won't force you."
Now that the conversation has come to this point, if Qin Shaoyou refuses again, it would be really unreasonable.
"Disciple...is willing to go."
Xiao Jian smiled calmly, then turned to Bai Xiyao and said:
"My teacher has been helping you fight for five more years. If you can't succeed this time, they will come to ask for help. When the time comes..."
Facts are often contrary to rumors. Bai Xiyao was indeed brought back to the sect by Xiao Jian fifteen years ago, but she was not an "illegitimate daughter" as everyone speculated. She was originally a disciple of the Phoenix Valley, because the pill formation was not a mistake.
, it produced fake elixirs, and that’s why it became like this.
As a major alchemy sect, Yuan Ling Sect is actually half a medicine sect.
Bai Xiyao's master and Xiao Jian were close friends, so he forwarded Bai Xiyao to the Yuanling Sect so that Xiao Jian could find a way to treat her.
However, this had little effect.
Xiao Jian wanted to try the last method, and in this method, the most important medicine was the heart of the fourth-level monster.
The fourth-level monster has a cultivation level equivalent to that of the human Nascent Soul realm. Naturally, she cannot kill it alone. However, her senior brother Li Changan has already been prepared for this.
"Disciple understands! Disciple will definitely not disappoint Master's expectations!"
Bai Xiyao responded with a lowered eyebrow, as if he was missing but didn't look at Qin Shaoyou.
The latter smiled helplessly, it seemed that he had thought too much before.
"In that case, you will set off immediately. You must obey Li Changan's arrangements along the way. I want you to come back one by one!"
"Disciple, obey!"
After arranging the trip to the Demon Realm, Xiao Jian asked everyone to leave, and soon only Song Chengxian and Su Xiaoxiao were left in the hall.
"Senior Brother, the Demon King's Yuanshen has been making many changes. I'm afraid there are big changes in the Demon Realm."
"Are you really safe to let these five little guys go?"
Song Chengxian frowned and said.
Xiao Jian smiled slightly and looked at Su Xiaoxiao.
"What's Junior Sister Su's opinion?"
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the two of them and spoke slowly:
"Senior brother, the leader, must have made a complete plan. Senior brother Song, there is no need to worry."
"After all, our Yuan Ling Sect was once the main force in sealing the entire Demon Realm!"
