After Huang Jinyi and Zhang Shenxu escaped, they hid in an abandoned farmer's courtyard outside the city to recover from their injuries.
More than ten days later, Huang Jinyi, who went to the city in disguise to inquire about the situation, heard the news that Prince Ning's mansion had been raided, and that Prince Ning and his concubine had colluded with demons to rebel and seek immortality. After being found out by the Ministry of Punishment, they were beheaded and ambushed.
Huang Jinyi also felt that from the moment the incident broke out to when Prince Ning and his wife were interrogated too quickly, he was still worried. When Zhang Shenxu's injuries were almost healed, the two of them quietly went to the Xishan Mountain where Prince Ning and his wife were buried to check.
.Let’s see if it was Prince Ning and his wife who were beheaded.
The two of them had the same idea as Ming Zhiyuan. The three of them discussed it and searched separately. After more than an hour, Ming Zhiyuan finally found new tombs with the words Baili Yuning written on them.
This new grave is Fu Qin'er's grave.
Ming Zhiyuan called over the handsome boy and kept digging the soil with his two sharp claws. After a while, the two new graves were dug open, revealing two thin wooden coffins. Huang Jinyi used the sword in his hand to split the coffin lid, only to see what was inside.
The corpse only has a body but no head, and the same is true for Fu Qin'er's.
The three of them looked at each other, feeling that this fact was too strange. Although Prince Ning and Princess Ning were beheaded, it was impossible for them to not even bury their heads together.
The three people murmured for a while. Zhang Shenxu wanted to restore the two new tombs to their original state, but Ming Zhiyuan said that was not possible, so he just left the tombs as if they had been dug up and inspected to see if anyone paid attention to Prince Ning's affairs.
If there is, then what will happen next if the concerned person finds out that King Ning’s tomb is being inspected?
Huang Jinyi concluded: "Is this a way to alert the enemy?"
Ming Zhiyuan nodded: "We are in the light and the enemy is in the dark. We can only alert the enemy, and then we can only take one step at a time. We first create an illusion for them that we know something, even though we know nothing.
"
Huang Jinyi nodded: "That's it."
The three of them discussed for a while and decided that Ming Zhiyuan should return to Qianyuan first. Huang Jinyi and Zhang Shenxu stayed behind in Yuhuo Capital to see if anyone could not help but do something after being inspected the tomb of Prince Ning.
Ming Zhiyuan did not waste any more time and rushed back to Qianyuan with the handsome boy that night. He arrived directly at the capital of Qianyuan. By this time, many heads of sects close to the capital of Qianyuan had already arrived in Qianyuan.
After he handed over the reply written by Lord Yuhuo to the master uncle, he had no other tasks. The master and several uncles were still at the border of the defense line.
From all the sects in Tianyuan Continent, only the leader and a few disciples came to participate in the negotiation, while all other warriors stayed behind to guard the defense line to prevent the attacks of monsters.
Ming Zhiyuan and Liangzi returned to the room assigned to him. After he meditated and practiced the demonic energy for several weeks, he took out a box from the package. Inside was the box that the Blue Lion King gave him when he returned to the defense line from the Warcraft Forest last time.
More than a dozen third-grade magic beast inner elixirs.
The handsome boy came up to him and sniffed the inner elixirs. He jumped on the bed without any interest, closed his eyes and started to sleep. He knew that Ming Zhiyuan was going to be promoted to the third level.
Ming Zhiyuan took out a third-grade inner elixir and swallowed it. He immediately circulated the demonic energy in the inner elixir, attracted new third-grade demonic energy, and began to condense it.
The third-grade demonic energy was violent and flamboyant. When he first caught it, the violent impact almost made him unsteady. Fortunately, he was prepared for it. He gritted his teeth and slowly channeled the demonic energy and began to circulate around the world.
After one week, the violent surge of demonic energy has somewhat subsided. After two weeks, the two demonic energies have become one. At this time, the demonic energy glows slightly red and circulates rapidly in the meridians of Ming Zhiyuan's body.
He guided the fused demonic energy to slowly flow into the inner alchemy. After all the demonic energy merged into the inner alchemy, it began to undergo final condensation in the inner alchemy. At this time, the inner alchemy also began to shrink and expand, emitting sounds like
A sound like a beating heart. Bang bang! Bang bang! Bang bang...
When the last trace of demonic energy was condensed, the inner alchemy suddenly stopped shrinking, and the entire inner alchemy flashed with red light. It returned to silence. At this moment, Ming Zhiyuan only felt that the muscles, meridians, and bones of the whole body were tightly connected, like a huge clenched fist.
Same, powerful and flexible, and full of explosiveness!
He was finally promoted to the third level warrior.
Ming Zhiyuan took a long breath and slowly guided the demonic energy in his inner elixir to circulate for a week. The demonic energy followed his breath smoothly and traveled through his limbs and internal organs. Well! It's stable!
He opened his eyes, and it was already night. There were no candles in his room, but he saw everything in the room clearly, including the table placed against the wall, a high-backed chair in front of the table, and even the wall.
On the hanging paintings, he could see the wrinkled lines of the goose-yellow silk on the ladies' bodies.
This is the third grade!
I wonder if the third level of spiritual energy cultivation also feels like this?
Ming Zhiyuan recalled the aura of a third-level warrior from Wushen Mountain in his mind: "It's probably not as strong as my third-level demonic aura." He felt a little complacent.
At this time, he heard someone walking towards his room from the door of the compound. It seemed that not only his vision had improved, but his ears were also much more sensitive than before.
There was a knock on the door, "Junior brother, are you there?"
Ming Zhiyuan quickly opened the door, and Tong Daping stood at the door: "Junior brother, why don't you light the lamp?"
Ming Zhiyuan suddenly saw his senior brother, and was surprised and happy for a moment. He and Tong Daping had not seen each other for several years: "Senior brother, why are you here? I just woke up."
After saying that, he quickly lit the candle. Tong Daping walked in, looked at him up and down, and punched him on the shoulder: "Okay, you are already a third-level alchemist. You have made such rapid progress, you want to surpass me, senior brother."
Isn’t that right?”
Ming Zhiyuan laughed happily: "How can I catch up with the senior brother? It's good to just follow the senior brother and not hold you back."
The two junior brothers talked for a while. Tong Daping looked at the handsome boy who was still pretending to sleep with his eyes closed and said: "Little junior brother, where did you get this monster? It looks really weird."
Ming Zhiyuan touched his forehead: "It's not a monster, it's a Warcraft. I encountered it when I was in the Warcraft Forest. If it hadn't been for it, your junior brother and I would have become the fertile soil of the Warcraft Forest."
Tong Daping was very surprised when he heard this: "Didn't you feed it since childhood?"
"Uh...well...actually, it hasn't grown up yet. In the past few years, it has been growing. I don't know when it will grow up."
Tong Daping walked to the bed and reached out to touch the handsome boy's head. The handsome boy suddenly opened his eyes and glared at Tong Daping fiercely, which shocked Tong Daping: "Oh, this guy is so fierce? He is worthy of being a descendant of Warcraft."
Ming Zhiyuan quickly comforted the handsome boy: "This is my senior brother, handsome boy, we are a family."
After listening to Ming Zhiyuan's words, the handsome boy glanced at Tong Daping and closed his eyes again.
Tong Daping was a little amused and said: "You really have a bad temper."
He turned around and said, "Junior brother, you haven't eaten yet. Let's go and eat."
Ming Zhiyuan woke up the handsome boy and walked out of the yard with Tong Daping. He didn't want to go out to eat with the handsome boy, so he and Tong Daping asked someone to arrange dinner in the guest house. They also ordered a roasted whole lamb for the handsome boy.
Tong Daping has been following Nan Chunyi in the past few years, and his alchemy skills have improved rapidly. At this time, he has reached the peak of the third-level alchemy master. He is just one step away from being promoted to the second-level alchemy sage. This makes Ming Zhiyuan very envious.
After drinking a few drinks, Tong Daping quietly said to Ming Zhiyuan: "Junior brother, I have good news for you. Our master has been promoted to the first rank."
"What?"
Ming Zhiyuan was so happy that he almost jumped three feet high:
"Our Tianyuan finally has a first-grade alchemy god."
