Chapter 170 Making a Deal with Yao Lao
It's night!
Everything was quiet and the moonlight was gradually obscured by dark clouds.
In a dark room in the Xiao family.
Inside the vast sea protective shield, Xiao Se and Little Medical Fairy quietly watched Xiao Yan, who was lying on the bed and snoring because he was too tired from practicing.
"Little Medical Fairy, please do your job." Xiao Se looked at Little Medical Fairy.
The Little Medical Fairy nodded slightly, took out a packet of medicine powder from her storage ring, and before the Medicine Old Man in Xiao Yan's storage ring could react, she activated her Dou Qi and silently sent the medicine powder into Xiao Yan's mouth and nose, causing the latter to faint instantly.
"Senior, please show yourself."
After confirming that Xiao Yan was completely asleep, Xiao Se immediately expanded the range of the Hanhai protective shield, covering Xiao Yan who was unconscious with Chinese medicine. He said to the black and simple ring on Xiao Yan's hand.
"Haha, you are so good, you have this kind of strange thing that can completely isolate the aura."
A ray of white light floated out from the ancient black ring, fell to the ground, and turned into a vague figure of an old man.
"I am Xiao Se, a junior. I'm sure you still remember me." Xiao Se bowed respectfully and said to Yao Lao, who had a wary look on his face.
Ever since Xiao Se appeared, Yao Lao has been carefully looking at Xiao Se and the little medical fairy beside Xiao Se.
Xiao Se possesses the Guiyuan Soul Technique, which can prevent soul power detection, so Yao Lao was unable to detect Xiao Se's exact strength.
When Yao Lao found out that the little medical fairy beside Xiao Se was a five-star Dou Huang, a hint of astonishment flashed across his calm face. Fourteen or fifteen years old, such a young Dou Huang, even with his calmness, couldn't help but gasp in his heart.
Long before Xiao Se left the Xiao family, Yao Lao had already sensed that Xiao Se was unusual, but because his soul was too weak at the time, he did not investigate further.
Last year, Xiao Se returned to the Xiao family, and Yao Lao saw Xiao Se again. Xiao Se was no longer the same as before. With the improvement of his soul power, he was able to use the Guiyuan Soul Art to cover his body with a soul power protection layer. This could prevent others from exploring him, and also conduct counter-reconnaissance.
"I didn't expect it to be you. The Xiao family is full of hidden talents!" Yao Lao nodded to Xiao Se, and then asked with some doubt: "I am just an illusory soul now. I wonder what you want from me?"
"Haha, I just want to make a deal with you?" Xiao Se said with a smile.
Yao Lao was slightly stunned when he heard this, then he narrowed his eyes and said, "Young friend, tell me, if you can come up with something that interests me, maybe I will agree."
Xiao Se started to talk nonsense with a serious face: "I believe that the senior is also very curious about why my companion has reached the Douhuang level at such a young age. It is because she has an extremely terrifying physique, the Evil Poison Body."
"Poisonous body?" Upon hearing this, Yao Chen's face changed, and then he suddenly realized, "No wonder he has the strength of a Dou Huang at such a young age. It turns out to be this terrifying physique. And it has been activated for a while. But there is no sign of the poisonous Dou Qi in the body erupting. It seems that it is suppressed by some strange object."
Xiao Se nodded and continued to fool around: "Senior, your guess is correct. Two years ago, I went out to practice alone. By chance, I got the inheritance of a master of alchemy. Then I met this little medical fairy next to me. She has a body of evil poison. Although I used a special method to temporarily contain it, she would not get out of control. But it won't last long."
"Until a year ago, at the Xiao Family Bluestone Square, the senior used his soul power to sense me. I discovered the senior's existence. I learned that the senior was a soul body. Anyone who can exist as a soul body must have been an extremely powerful being when he was alive. So today I specially brought this friend here to try his luck."
Yao Lao didn't believe what Xiao Se said, but he was very curious about what Xiao Se could come up with in exchange, so he asked, "If I have a way to cure the evil poison body, what should I come up with in exchange?"
Xiao Se smiled faintly and said, "Of course, it is what Senior needs most right now. Rong Ling Dan."
"Rongling Pill?" Yao Lao was startled. Since he was born a year earlier, his soul was much weaker than when he first appeared in the original novel. If he could get Rongling Pill, he could replenish his soul power.
Xiao Se smiled faintly and said, "Yes, it is the Rong Ling Pill. I believe you have heard of it from your knowledge. I see that your soul seems to be very weak at the moment. If you encounter any situation that requires a lot of soul power, you may fall into a deep sleep at any time."
Yao Lao nodded solemnly, "I have to say, your conditions are very tempting, but Rongling Pill is a sixth-grade pill, can you produce it?"
"I haven't gathered all the materials yet, but..." As he spoke, Xiao Se narrowed his eyes slightly, and a huge spiritual power emanated from his mind, stirring in Yao Lao's body.
"This is..." Feeling Xiao Se's huge soul power, Yao Lao was speechless. The young man in front of him, who was about the same age as Xiao Yan, had a soul power that had reached the level of a sixth-grade alchemist.
"This is the recipe for the Rongling Pill. I have read the sole information on it." Xiao Se casually threw out a purple and silver scroll and said with a smile, "I have shown my sincerity. I wonder if you have any solution to cure the evil poison body?"
Yao Lao took the scroll and took a look at it. Although the traces of the soul on it were no longer clear and could not be read, it was undoubtedly the recipe for Rongling Pill. He nodded immediately, and a cunning look flashed across his old eyes. "You are lucky. I do have a way to cure the evil poison body."
Although he has the method to cure the poisonous body, the materials are extremely difficult to gather.
In Yao Lao's opinion, it was extremely difficult to obtain the magic core and bodhi body saliva of the seventh-level Sky Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast, not to mention the three kinds of strange fire. Unless one practiced the Burning Decision technique to control the three kinds of strange fire at the same time, even a Dou Sheng would find it difficult to do so.
So when Xiao Se proposed a solution to the poisonous body, Yao Lao was thinking about how to gain greater benefits.
The Soul-Releasing Pill is just an appetizer, the key is to condense the Poison Pill.
At that time, he would help Little Medical Fairy to condense poison pills in exchange for a poisonous body and a powerful alchemist, which would be enough for Xiao Yan to grow faster.
Unfortunately, although Yao Lao's plan was sound, he miscalculated the person.
In the end, after some bargaining, Xiao Se exchanged a Rong Ling Pill for the method of condensing the poison pill, and the two agreed to exchange the money for the goods.
In the sky, Xiao Se and Little Medical Fairy were flying rapidly in the night.
"Why didn't Xiao Se just grab that old man and snatch his storage ring? Even if he was a super strong man when he was alive, his soul is extremely weak now. He definitely can't escape under the vast sea protective shield." Little Medical Fairy asked with some doubts.
Xiao Se shook his head and explained, "If he hides in the Soul Ring, we won't be able to do anything to him in a short period. Besides, this continent is not as simple as we imagined. We need him and the kid lying on the bed to attract the attention of a dangerous force for us."
