In Shituoling, the black and yellow beast jumped out from the ground and entered the small courtyard where Ning Yi rented.
Leaving a split body to guard the four elders, Ning Yi rode on the black and yellow beast, went underground, and soon came to the east gate of Shituoling. After the transformation, he waited patiently.
In the blink of an eye, one day passed.
The agreed time has passed, but Elder Sha has not come.
"This old guy seems to be seriously injured."
Ning Yi sighed regretfully, knowing that Elder Sha would probably not come to keep the appointment.
Jumping on the Xuanhuang Beast, Ning Yi sneaked into Shituoling again and appeared in Sha's Escort Agency.
As soon as he showed his head, Shopkeeper Sha came up to him excitedly, shouting for help, Uncle Master.
Ning Yi pretended to be surprised on the surface, but was secretly happy in his heart. It seemed that the Lord of Luo City was really interested in him and pushed Shopkeeper Sha hard, otherwise he wouldn't be like this.
"Master Nephew Sha, what happened? How could this happen?"
Ning Yi pointed to the collapsed hall of the escort agency, with a look of surprise in his eyes, "Where did the second senior brother go? We didn't see anyone outside the city."
When he mentioned Elder Sha, Shopkeeper Sha felt sad in his heart.
If you fail to steal the chicken, you will lose the rice. Thinking about it now, Shopkeeper Sha felt a little regretful.
To retell a simple thing again, of course, it is inevitable to add some exaggeration and avoid the important points.
"Senior brother, if you cultivate to gain something, it should be fine."
Ning Yi sighed and said: "We are not justified in this matter. It would be best if we can let the matter rest. Although the sect is not afraid of the court, this is not the time to fall out."
"Uncle Master, the Lord of Naluo City also went too far and demanded a lot of compensation."
"Okay, these are all small things."
Ning Yi waved his hand and said: "My nephew Mingcheng and I have found the traces of Lao Qi. His disappearance may be related to the White Ape clan. Your master is fine for the time being, but Lao Qi cannot wait. I am going to find out.
Guoshan, Mingcheng, you stay here and tell the second senior brother the situation when he comes back."
"Yes, uncle."
After Ning Yi finished his instructions, he ignored Shopkeeper Sha's look for help, jumped onto the Xuanhuang Beast, and disappeared in an instant.
When Ning Yi came back this time, his purpose was very clear.
Firstly, the disappearance of the four elders was led to the White Ape clan, and secondly, the split body was stuffed into the Earth Immortal Sect again. As long as this split body is there, it can control the movements of the Earthly Immortal Sect in a timely manner.
If Shopkeeper Sha comes back, he might be able to do his old trick again.
Act out the process of ambushing the fourth elder on Elder Sha.
Returning to the small courtyard, leaving the Xuanhuang Beast behind, Ning Yi went straight to Hu's Trading Company.
The Fourth Elder surpasses Yun Guzi in both cultivation and physical body, so Ning Yi plans to use him to refine the Ding Chou Divine Weapon. As for the refining method, it is similar to the Ding Mao Divine Weapon, but the main materials and formation patterns used are very different.
The main material of Ding Chou's divine weapon is called Blood Evil Thunder Bead.
This orb was not born in nature, but was condensed from the evil spirit of blood in a place where there was heavy killing.
The blood evil spirit is originally a very yin thing, and it condenses into blood evil beads, which are extremely yin and cold, and are designed to pollute people's souls.
Among the blood evil beads, a blood evil thunder bead will occasionally be born by chance.
This bead reverses yin and yang and breeds divine thunder.
Bloody thunder.
Blood evil thunder has an evil nature in its yang, and its damage to the soul is far greater than that of blood evil energy.
This bead is hard to find, so you might as well give it more than the Nine-Yang Thunder Crystal Iron.
However, Hu's Trading Company may have it.
After all, this item is the favorite of evil cultivators.
There are many human evil cultivators hiding in the Kunwu Mountains.
"Hu Meiniang."
Ning Yi remembered the look in the eyes of the ancestor of the Hu family when he looked at Ding Mao's magic weapon when he was at Sha's Escort Agency.
Obviously, she should have seen something.
The method of refining the Six Ding Divine Weapon is unique to the Fang Xi tribe and has a distinct ethnic style.
From this point of view, the ancestors of the Hu family may have some understanding of the Fangxi people.
In the conversation that day, both parties deliberately threw out bait.
Hu Meiniang's purpose was to get something from Ning Yi with the information she had in hand.
Ning Yi also wanted to see if Hu Meiniang had any information about the inheritance of the True Immortal. After all, the Hu family had been operating in Kunwu for many years, so they might know something about the inheritance of Lingguo Mountain.
Ning Yi would not believe everything Mr. Xu said.
The White Ape King said the same thing.
If we can get some information from Hu Meiniang and the three parties confirm each other, we may be able to get more truth.
Of course, what's more important is that Ning Yi wants to take this opportunity to expose the inheritance of the White Ape Clan's fairy weapons and prepare for the next plan.
As the biggest customer of the Hu family in recent days, as soon as Ning Yi walked in, Hu Ying was notified and welcomed Ning Yi into the side hall.
After serving the spiritual tea, Hu Ying's eyes flashed and he looked extremely enthusiastic.
Compared with last time, there was a hint of awe among the enthusiasm.
Although he mainly relied on puppets, with his cultivation at the Foundation Establishment Realm, he was able to defeat the second elder of the Earth Immortal Sect and escape. This record was astonishing.
The magic weapon is also twice as strong as one's own strength.
After defeating Elder Sha, Ning Yi's strength symbol has become equivalent to the Golden Core realm.
"Mr. Zhao, I wonder what you want to buy when you come here this time?"
Ning Yi put down the tea bowl and said with a smile: "I wonder if your company has the Blood Evil Thunder Bead."
"This thing is not cheap."
There was a hint of surprise in Hu Ying's eyes.
I just spent more than a hundred spirit stones to purchase a batch of spiritual materials a few days ago.
Only a few days later, he had to buy blood evil thunder beads that were priced no less than Jiuyang Thunder Crystal Iron. Such a large amount of spiritual stones was enough to buy a low-grade magic weapon.
The Hu family was extremely rich, but Ning Yi spent so much money, which still frightened Hu Ying.
"Spiritual stones are not a problem."
Ning Yi waved his hand casually, looking extremely heroic.
Anyway, what was plundered from Yun Guzi and the Fourth Elder greatly exceeded this amount.
Now that it is used on the two of them, it can be regarded as taking it from the enemy and using it for yourself.
Ning Yi spends it and doesn't feel very distressed.
"Sir, you are so proud!"
Hu Ying covered her mouth and chuckled, and said: "A few years ago, the Hu family happened to get a blood evil thunder bead. However, in a few days, the seven Kunwu surnames will hold an auction in Shituoling.
The big forces near Kunwu, even the Kunwu Monster Clan, and the hidden Taoist friends will come to participate. Unfortunately, this Blood Evil Spirit Pearl is one of the auction items."
Ning Yi frowned slightly, he was bound to get the Bloody Thunder Bead.
Once he enters the auction, he will not only face a lot of uncertainty, but it will also delay his time in refining the Ding Chou magic weapon.
"Nothing in this world is non-negotiable."
Ning Yi chuckled lightly and said, "What conditions does your pavilion have? Tell me and listen."
"Haha, Mr. Zhao is quick to talk and I like young people like this."
Hu Meiniang pushed the door open from outside and walked in. She said with a smile: "I heard that Mr. Zhao was coming, so I came to take a look. I happened to hear a little bit. Mr. Zhao won't blame me."
"how could be."
Ning Yi shook his head and sneered in his heart.
This old fox, shameless, is much more straightforward than me. It would be strange if it was just a coincidence, it was clearly aimed at me.
However, Hu Meiniang is also the leader of the clan and a big boss in the Golden Core Realm.
She acted so eagerly, which showed that she did have something she was very eager to get.
Ning Yi became more and more curious as to what she knew about the Fang Xi people.
"Senior, you came at the right time. I want to buy the Bloody Thunder Bead. I wonder how your firm can sell it to me."
"As long as Young Master Zhao can clear up the doubts in the old man's mind, I will give him the Blood Evil Thunder Bead."
Hu Meiniang sat opposite Ning Yi, smiled when she heard this, and stared straight at Ning Yi with her eyes.
"coming."
Ning Yi screamed in his heart, nodded with a smile, and said: "Senior, please speak, I will do my best, junior."
"Master Zhao, do you know about the Fangxi tribe in ancient times?"
Zhao Meiniang pondered for a moment, got straight to the point, and directly stated her purpose.
"Know something."
Ning Yi nodded and said: "It is said that this clan is skilled in martial arts, formations, and has made great achievements in the law of time. However, for unknown reasons, the entire clan suddenly disappeared from the mainland."
"Young master is knowledgeable and I admire him."
Hu Meiniang nodded and said: "A few days ago, I once said that I accidentally got an ancient jade slip, which recorded some things about the Fang Xi people. After I came back, I looked through it again, and I really found it. I looked carefully.
After reading it, I found that it mentioned some things, which may be related to the disappearance of the Fang Xi tribe."
"Oh, I would like to hear the details."
Ning Yi's eyes lit up, regardless of whether what Hu Meiniang said was true or false.
Ning Yi is interested in knowing about ancient secrets.
"It should be related to a true immortal from the Fang Xi tribe."
Hu Meiniang pondered for a while and said: "The jade slip mentioned that before the Fang Xi clan disappeared, the last true immortal in the clan was about to end his life. He was unwilling to be reincarnated and did some terrible things."
"whats the matter?"
Ning Yi's eyes flickered, and when he saw Hu Meiniang was silent, he hurriedly asked.
"Some attempts at immortality."
Hu Meiniang's eyes showed fear, and she said: "It's really scary for a true immortal to go crazy when he is about to die. According to the records in the jade slips, this true immortal used a unique method to turn his people into beings that seemed dead but not dead. In the end,
, I don’t know what happened, causing the entire race to disappear from the world overnight.”
"There is such a thing."
Ning Yi had a look of surprise on his face and asked: "Can the jade slip mention whether this true immortal succeeded?"
"It should have failed."
Hu Meiniang shook her head and said: "Even a true immortal cannot live forever. Moreover, the true immortal's old age is often accompanied by unknown things. I checked some ancient books and found that the extinction of many spiritual tribes is related to the true immortal's old age.
Related. However, there are few written records left in the world about these things. It seems that the things that happened in the later years of the real immortal are a taboo and should not exist in the world."
Ning Yi recalled what Hu Meiniang said, but it provided a new idea.
In the Jixia Academy and the Secret Shadow Division, there is a collection of classics from all over the world.
There are many records about true immortals.
However, when I think about it now, these books that record the lives of real immortals invariably miss an important matter.
How did the true immortal die and when did he die?
Except for those who were killed by true immortals, there were no records of those who died because of Shou Yuanlao.
Ning Yi had seen some explanations before.
It is said that in his later years, a true immortal will find a secret place, open up a different space, and bury himself in it.
Therefore, few people know.
When did the true immortal die and where did he die?
Today, Ning Yi learned another explanation from Hu Meiniang.
When a true immortal reaches the end of his life, terrible things happen, and these things may sometimes lead to the extinction of a spiritual race.
Therefore, many true immortals chose a secret place to bury themselves in order not to implicate their race.
This explanation seems to be self-explanatory.
However, whether this is true remains to be verified.
After all, true immortals are revered in the world and can be called invincible existences.
Even in their old age, who can let them die silently without any ability to resist?
Ning Yi couldn't imagine it. He only felt that behind this matter, there might be the deepest and most essential secret of the world. And perhaps only a true immortal could give the answer to this secret.
"As for the things recorded on the jade slips, I have always been doubtful."
Hu Meiniang paused for a moment, waiting for Ning Yi to digest the information in these words, and then continued: "It was only after seeing Mr. Zhao's puppet a few days ago that I believed that some of the things recorded in the jade slips might be true. For example,
, refining living people into weapons and becoming a being between life and death."
"Senior has good eyesight."
Ning Yi smiled. After Hu Meiniang talked for a long time, she still mentioned the Sixth Divine Weapon, "This puppet of mine is indeed from the Fang Xi tribe."
"As expected."
Hu Meiniang's eyes lit up slightly, and she hesitated and asked, "Mr. Zhao, can you tell me something in detail?"
Ning Yi picked up the tea cup, took a sip and kept silent.
What are you thinking about?
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is related to the Fang Xi clan, and after it is uncovered, it may be a treasure left by the clan.
With just a few words, I want to know where I want to eat.
Hu Meiniang's eyes flashed with light, and she nodded to Hu Ying who was standing aside.
Hu Ying turned around and went out. After half a cup of tea, she left and came back again. There was a jade box in her hand and she gently placed it on Ning Yi.
"This is?"
"Blood evil thunder bead."
Hu Meiniang said with a smile: "Since Mr. Zhao has answered the questions in my heart, I should fulfill my promise."
"Haha, that would be disrespectful."
Ning Yi smiled, cupped his hands, and opened the jade box.
A burst of red light rose into the sky, and a layer of frost suddenly appeared in the room, filled with evil spirits. As if he were on the battlefield, Ning Yi's soul was so strong that he had a brief hallucination before his eyes.
In the jade box, there lay a blood bead the size of a dragon's eye.
Wisps of blood jumped out from it. At first glance, it looked like a strange living creature. Upon closer inspection, those blood threads were actually wisps of tiny lightning.
After only two glances, Ning Yi felt a little dizzy.
In the mud palace cave, the soul is slightly turbulent, showing signs of instability. It is said that this object is the best to restrain the soul, and it is true.
Snapped!
Ning Yi closed the jade box and dropped the sealing formation.
Hu Meiniang waved her dress, and a wisp of mana emerged, and the cold blood-evil atmosphere in the room was instantly swept away.
"Thank you, senior."
Ning Yi cupped his hands, pondered for a while and said: "As for the Fang Xi clan's puppet, it was indeed obtained from a ruins. The younger generation is very involved in this matter, and it cannot be done by one family alone. If the Hu family wants to participate, it is not impossible.
.”
A flash of light shot out from Hu Meiyan's pale eyes.
"Mr. Zhao, if you have any conditions, just put them forward. If you can't make the decision, I can negotiate with the forces behind you. Don't worry, as long as things come true, I will not lose any of the benefits that belong to Mr. Zhao.
