Chapter 172 Heading to Hua Zong
A few days later, Danta Library.
"Tsk tsk, this old monster Xu is really strong, he can even refine the ninth-grade precious pill..." Xiao Yun kept exclaiming in amazement. He was now reading a book of medicine refining notes from ancient times. The person who left the notes could be considered a ninth-grade medicine refining master.
Strictly speaking, the eighth-grade medicine refining badge is already the highest honor for a pharmacist, because above the eighth grade, it is no longer something that Danta can issue. None of them need the proof of the pharmacist badge, but they can be on par with the strong men of the Dousheng level.
"Alas, what a pity, I can only read for two days, it would be better if I could read for a few more days." Xiao Yun reluctantly put the book back on the bookshelf, and said with regret, being able to learn the experience of other high-level alchemists is something that cannot be exchanged for any number of
pill recipes. He only watched here for two days, and his understanding of alchemy has deepened a lot.
"What's so difficult about this? If you are willing to take over my job, you can stay in the alchemy tower as long as you want."
When Xiao Yun sighed, a hoarse voice suddenly came, and Xuan Kongzi stood aside and said with a smile.
"Xuan Lao."
It was obvious that he was too absorbed in reading just now, and he didn't even notice when Xuan Kongzi came.
"Forget it. Right now, I still want to travel around the mainland." Xiao Yun shook his head. He was not interested in the power that ordinary people dreamed of. Compared to managing Danta, he would rather travel around the mainland with Xiao Yixian.
"Okay, you are just like that old guy Yao Chen, both of whom don't like to meddle in other people's affairs." Xiao Yun's refusal was within Xuan Kongzi's expectations. He walked over slowly and said in a deep voice: "I heard from Yao Chen that you are going to Huazong, right?"
"Well, Elder Xuan, after the matter of Huazong is resolved, maybe I will not return to Danta for the time being, but travel around the mainland with Xian'er."
"Travel around the mainland? With your current strength, it is enough." Xuan Kongzi nodded slightly when he heard this. With Dou Zun's cultivation level, the world is so big that he can go anywhere. He is not worried about Xiao Yun's safety.
"It's time, let's go out, you should also say goodbye to Yao Chen and the others."
After leaving the library, Xiao Yun found Yao Lao and Huo Lao, said goodbye briefly, and rejected Huo Lao's suggestion to accompany him. Then he took Xiao Yixian and found Nalan Yanran and the others, and headed straight for Hua Zong.
According to the map, Hua Zong is located in the northwest of Zhongzhou, on the upper left of Danyu. The journey is not far. If you take the space channel, it only takes five or six days.
...
And in Shengdan City, a courtyard in a remote area, this is just an ordinary courtyard in the eyes of outsiders, but in its room, it is filled with eerie and terrifying energy fluctuations.
"Huh!"
Suddenly, the void in the spacious room was torn apart, and then a thick black mist surged out of it, turning into a black-robed figure standing on the ground.
"Has Xiao Yun left Shengdan City today?" A hoarse and old voice came out from under the black robe, and it was like magic, freezing the air around.
"That's right, elder. According to our spies in Dan Tower, Xiao Yun talked with the people from Huazong four days ago, and today, he followed the people from Huazong to the space channel." On the ground, an old man in black was kneeling on one knee, respectfully reporting the information.
"So, Xiao Yun is going to Huazong?" Hearing this, the black-robed figure slowly raised his head under the hood, and darkness shrouded it, and only two blood-red murderous lights could be seen. He looked in the direction of the space channel, and his voice was extremely cold:
"Such a young eighth-grade master of alchemy, how can he not work for my Soul Palace? Since that old guy Yao Chen refuses to leave Shengdan City, let's start with his disciples!" After speaking, the black-robed figure looked at the old man kneeling on one knee on the ground, and continued: "You continue to stay in Shengdan City to monitor until Yao Chen leaves Shengdan City!"
"Yes! I obey your command!"
The black-robed figure nodded slightly, waved his hand, and directly tore the void again, and then slowly stepped into it.
...
In the space channel, Xiao Yun and his group, who were unaware that they had been targeted by the Soul Palace, were silently practicing in the space ship.
Originally, with Xiao Yun's strength, he didn't need to take the space ship, but among the four people, there was one who only had the strength of a great fighter, Nalan Yanran.
It was very dangerous for practitioners below the Fighting Sect to fly in the space channel with their physical bodies, so in order to take care of her, the three of them took the slower space ship.
"So she is Nalan Yanran." In the room, the little medical fairy looked at the beautiful girl at the bow of the ship and said in surprise.
Before she met Xiao Yun, she had heard of Nalan Yanran's name several times from the mercenaries who traveled all over the country.
At that time, she was very envious of the former's talent and status, and was accepted as a personal disciple by the leader of the Yunlan Sect. She didn't expect that now that they met for the first time, their identities had changed drastically.
"That's right." Xiao Yun nodded slightly and smiled, "Originally, she could have become my sister-in-law, so we could be considered a family."
As the two were talking, they suddenly noticed that the space channel was shaking violently, as if it had encountered a space storm, and the space ship felt like it was about to fall.
Before Xiao Yun could go out to check, a voice filled with coldness came from the outside world into the room.
"Master Xiao Yun is here? We are under the order of the Lord of the Palace and would like to invite you to our Soul Palace as a guest."
Hearing this cold voice, Xiao Yun and Xiao Yixian's faces changed, and they pushed open the door and looked up at the source of the voice.
"I didn't expect that Yao Lao really guessed it..."
He looked up and saw that in the originally silver-white and flawless space channel, a space crack had now appeared, and strong space waves were constantly sweeping out of it, which was also the reason why the space ship was shaking constantly.
In front of the space crack, there was a group of people standing in the air. The person in the front was wearing a blue robe, and even his hair and eyebrows were light blue. In his eyes, it seemed that there was endless water energy.
Just looking at Xiao Yun made him feel an inexplicable pressure in his heart.
"Master Xiao." At this moment, Hua Kui also brought Nalan Yanran over. She looked at the blue-robed figure in the sky with some fear, but her voice was firm: "Master Xiao, I have sent a distress signal to the sect. As long as we can hold on until the elders of the sect come..."
"Haha, don't bother." Although Hua Kui's voice was not loud, it was still heard by the blue-robed figure. He smiled coldly and said lightly: "Forgot to say, I am the Ninth Heavenly Lord of the Soul Palace, or the Demon Rain Heavenly Lord!"
"Nine Heavenly Lord!"
Upon hearing this, Hua Kui, who had wanted to resist, turned pale in an instant, and trembled, "Nine Heavenly Lord of the Soul Palace, as early as more than ten years ago, I heard that he already had the strength of an eight-star Dou Zun..."
Seeing Hua Kui's doomed look, Xiao Yun shook his head slightly. The Hua Sect had been in seclusion for too long, and even some of the elders inside had become a little bloodless.
"Xian'er, you and Elder Hua Kui should protect yourselves later." After instructing Xiao Yixian, Xiao Yun's body shook slightly, and he flew into the air, facing Mo Yu Tianzun from a distance.
"What if I don't want to visit the Soul Palace?"
"Haha, it's not up to you! I know you want to delay, but don't waste your time. With your three-star Dou Zun strength, you are not good enough in front of me!"
"Although the Lord of the Palace said that he wants you alive, you should know that if you have one breath left, you are still alive. You'd better go with me obediently to save yourself from suffering." The blue eyes of the Demon Rain Heavenly Zun narrowed, flashing with dangerous light.
"That's really..." Xiao Yun nodded slightly, and before he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his hand, and a pitch-black fire dragon rushed directly towards the Soul Palace.
Immediately afterwards, a brilliant thunder burst out from his body, and the low thunder sound echoed in the space channel. His figure rushed towards the Soul Palace like lightning.
"It seems that you have chosen to suffer a little!"
Seeing Xiao Yun's attack, Mo Yu Tianzun had a blank expression on his face. He casually waved his right palm, and azure fighting spirit burst out. In the blink of an eye, it condensed into a giant palm one hundred feet high, and fiercely slapped the fire dragon.
"You two, go and capture the people on the spaceship!" Mo Yu Tianzun ordered the two black and white fighting masters behind him, and then as if he had eyes behind him, he stretched out his hand and easily took Xiao Yun's thunder-filled punch.
"Yes, sir!"
Black and white fighting masters bowed slightly, then bypassed Mo Yu and Xiao Yun and went straight to the spaceship.
