Chapter 267
byMeng Wuya and Xiao Fusheng quarreled for a long time. In the end, no one knew what kind of agreement they reached. The two old fellows walked out with smiles on their faces.
Xiao Fusheng immediately went to prepare for the opening of the Myriad Medicine Pool to allow Xia Ning Shang to comprehend the dao of alchemy in front of the statue of the Alchemy Saint’s remains.
Opening the Myriad Medicine Pool is a very costly matter. Because every time, many pills need to be thrown into the Myriad Medicine Pool to make the statue of the Alchemy Saint’s remains possess unfathomable mysteries and allow people to comprehend from it.
The number of pills thrown in each time is at least about a hundred. The more pills are thrown in and the more precious they are, the longer the energy in the statue of the Alchemy Saint’s remains will last.
Precisely because it consumes so many materials, even the Medicine King Valley may not be able to open it several times a year. Every time it is opened, either the elders of each peak need to comprehend it themselves, or it is prepared for the elite disciples under the peak.
And apart from the people in the Medicine King Valley, other alchemists in the outside world who want to comprehend the dao of alchemy in front of the statue of the Alchemy Saint’s remains also only have the path of the Alchemy Conference.
The Alchemy Conference is held once every five years, and countless alchemists flock to each conference.
The pills refined by these alchemists at the conference, regardless of quality or quantity, will all be thrown into the Myriad Medicine Pool to open the forbidden area. The top fifty in the alchemy conference will share the legacy of the Alchemy Saint.
Over the past few thousand years, I don’t know how many pills the Myriad Medicine Pool has swallowed.
That’s why it is called the Myriad Medicine Pool！
The connection and mystery between the Myriad Medicine Pool and the Alchemy Saint’s statue have been repeatedly explored by successive generations of the Medicine King Valley, but they have never been able to figure it out.
Here has become the holy land in the hearts of alchemists all over the world！ The Alchemy Saint’s statue is even a treasure that alchemists dream of seeing. Many people work hard all their lives just to be able to sit quietly in front of the Alchemy Saint’s statue for a while.
After learning that the Myriad Medicine Pool was about to be opened for Xia Ning Shang , Yang Kai’s mind suddenly became active.
Although he couldn’t go to the Myriad Medicine Pool with Xia Ning Shang in person, he could send the Earth Demon to check the situation.
After some preparations to ensure that there was no danger, Yang Kai found Xia Ning Shang and gave her both the Soul-Breaking Cone and the Earth Demon. Incidentally, he also borrowed the ancient jade that shields the breath from Dong Qingyan.
If there was no such ancient jade, the evil spirit of the Earth Demon would be invisible in front of Divine Movement Jing experts.
Two days later, everything was ready. Xiao Fusheng personally led Xia Ning Shang into the Alchemy Saint Peak and went to the Myriad Medicine Pool.
Meng Wuya had the cheek to say that he wanted to go and see, but was ruthlessly rejected by Xiao Fusheng.
Even Meng Wuya is not allowed to approach, which shows how important the Medicine King Valley attaches to the forbidden area.
On the day Xia Ning Shang went to the Myriad Medicine Pool, Meng Wuya was bored and took the opportunity to come and talk to Yang Kai.
During the conversation, Shopkeeper Meng kept telling Yang Kai how much Su Yan had lost weight and become haggard during the time he was away, and how she missed someone, and how Xie Hongchen was pestering and chasing after her. While talking, he secretly observed Yang Kai’s reaction.
After listening, Yang Kai chuckled and said, “Shopkeeper Meng, an honest man doesn’t tell lies. Are you worried that I will make a move on Senior Sister？”
Meng Wuya’s expression was a bit embarrassed. He didn’t expect Yang Kai to have such a thick skin and say things so directly. He forced a smile and said, “Little Yang Kai, I watched you grow up. I know you won’t be so beastly, right？ Ning Shang is not old and is innocent and lively, and is very easy to be deceived… Cough, I’m not talking about you. I just don’t want her to be hurt by love. And Su Yan is a proud girl. It’s a dream for many people to get her favor. If you can get her love, what more can you ask for！ You can’t eat from the bowl and look at the pot, can you？”
Meng Wuya talked about the matter of Xia Ning Shang with Yang Kai so openly for the first time, and naturally he was extremely frank.
Yang Kai hehe laughed and said, “Shopkeeper Meng, I only ask you one thing.”
“Yes.”
“Will little senior sister get married and have children in the future？ Or do you hope she will grow old alone.”
“How could I hope she would grow old alone？” Meng Wuya rolled his eyes. “She is my precious apprentice. Naturally, I hope she can be happy and carefree for a lifetime.”
“Then, Shopkeeper Meng, do you think there is anyone in this world who is worthy of little senior sister？”
Meng Wuya shook his head, with a look of pride on his face： “No one is worthy！ My apprentice, a person like a bright pearl and jade dew, the person worthy of her has not been born yet.”
“What about Su Yan？ How does she compare to little senior sister？” Yang Kai asked with a smile.
Meng Wuya’s expression became serious： “Su Yan is indeed extraordinary, but it’s not that I’m boasting. Compared with my family’s Ning Chang, she is still a bit inferior！”
“Even… if she has obtained the inheritance in that inheritance cave? Yang Kai’s voice became depressed.
Meng Wuya’s expression changed： “Did she really obtain it？”
Yang Kai nodded slightly.
Meng Wuya’s face changed several times. Recalling the dragon-shaped phoenix seal that day, he said seriously： “If this is really the case, then her future achievements will be limitless, and she will be on a par with Ning Chang！”
“Hehe！” Yang Kai chuckled.
Meng Wuya looked at him suspiciously and suddenly understood how he had gone around in circles for a long time.
Su Yan and Xia Ning Chang are on a par. Since Su Yan is willing to be with him, why can’t Xia Ning Chang？
“So, you have to eat what’s in the bowl and not let go of what’s in the pot. A man should dare to love and hate. If you’re all hesitant and shy, that will only hurt your Senior Sister’s heart.” Yang Kai said lightly.
Meng Wuya opened his mouth but couldn’t refute. He flew into a rage out of humiliation, stood up and cursed, “You bastard! I saw through your bad intentions long ago. You lecher! You rogue! Damn it! The world is so big. Why did I think of staying in Lingxiao Pavilion back then and making myself uncomfortable!”
It was useless to regret now. His precious apprentice had her heart set on Yang Kai, and this little rogue obviously didn’t refuse anyone who came. The matter had gotten out of hand.
Gnashing his teeth, Meng Wuya said, “Bastard, if you dare to make Ning Shang sad, this old man… this old man will go to Zhongdu and exterminate your Yang family！”
After saying that, he left in a huff, flicking his sleeve.
Yang Kai touched his nose, not caring at all.
Meng Wuya was extremely powerful. It wasn’t strange that he could find out his identity. He should have learned it from the Sect Master. Since the shopkeeper dared to tell him, he must have been very relieved of him.
So there was no need to worry that he would betray himself.
One day later, Xia Ning Shang and Xiao Fusheng returned together.
After secretly handing the Soul-breaking Cone and that piece of ancient jade to Yang Kai, Senior Sister immediately went into seclusion.
After pondering in front of the statue of the Dan Saint for a whole day, she also reaped huge benefits and had to spend some time sorting out the knowledge she had obtained.
Taking the Broken Soul Cone back into his body, he finally had the time to ask in detail.
“What’s the situation there?”
“The defense is very tight. Besides four Divine Movement Realm masters defending within thirty zhang, there are also more than a dozen True Yuan Realm masters, and there are quite a few people patrolling around.” The Earth Demon responded hastily.
“Did you sneak in?”
“This old slave could only circle around the bottom of the Myriad Medicine Pool and didn’t find much. However, there seems to be a very secretive and mysterious formation at the bottom, and I couldn’t open it.”
“What kind of formation is it？”
The Earth Demon quickly condensed his spiritual consciousness and transmitted what he saw into Yang Kai’s mind. What he saw was also very fuzzy, and fortunately, his eyesight was sharp and he saw some traces of the formation. If it were someone else going down, it would be impossible to find any clues at all.”
“This formation…” Yang Kai looked at it for a long time and suddenly reacted. This formation was somewhat similar to the pattern that had once been displayed on the fifth page of the wordless Black Book.
There must be a connection between the two. If his guess was correct, the pattern on the fifth page of the Black Book should be the key to opening the formation
He still had to go there in person! But how could he enter such a tightly guarded place?
“Young Master, this old servant heard those several guards whispering there before. Once the Alchemy Conference is held, the defense there will be relaxed a bit. Because there aren’t many people in Medicine King Valley originally, and the Alchemy Conference is very lively every time, so quite a few people will go down the mountain to maintain order. At that time, there will only be two Divine Movement Realm to guard left, and that should be an opportunity! Di Mo opened his mouth to remind.
“Two Divine Movement Realms…” Yang Kai’s brows furrowed tightly.
Two Divine Movement Realms are still Divine Movement Realms. Even though there is the ancient jade to conceal the traces of one’s own aura and True Yuan, it is still difficult to escape their notice.
Moreover, besides these two Divine Movement Realms, there must be other people.
If only someone could replace oneself to lure them away.
Di Mo should be able to lure away a group！ As long as his speed is fast enough, he can escape back to Cloud Hidden Peak and return to Junior Sister here. It’s not too late to take him back after one’s own side has finished the action.
The key is that he alone definitely can’t lure away all the guards. There has to be another helper. Yang Kai frowned and thought hard.
The Alchemy Conference was held as scheduled. Alchemists from all over the world gathered in Medicine King Valley, all ready to show their skills, strive for a good ranking, and become famous and rise to the top.
The people on Cloud Hidden Peak weren’t very interested in the Alchemy Conference. Only Dong Qingyan wanted to go and take a look at the excitement. Regarding this, Xiao Fusheng didn’t stop her either and let her go to increase her knowledge often.
Xia Ning Shang and Meng Wuya also temporarily resided on Cloud Hidden Peak, learning the theoretical knowledge of alchemy from Old Xiao together with Dong Qingyan every day.
After learning, they would stay by Yang Kai’s side. Sometimes they just sat there without saying a word, and sometimes they talked with Yang Kai. They were very happy every day and seemed to be content if things could always be like this in the future.
The Alchemy Conference was held for a full ten days. Tomorrow would be the finals of the Alchemy Conference. After the conference, the top fifty alchemists would be selected, and then all the pills refined in this conference would be used to open the Myriad Medicine Pool for these fifty alchemists, allowing them to comprehend the portrait of the Alchemy Saint.
This was a grand event that only occurred once every five years and attracted the attention of the whole world！
Late at night, Yang Kai drifted out of the house like a ghost.
Tomorrow was the finals. Tonight should be the busiest moment in Medicine King Valley. After waiting for so many days and has been planning and preparing. it was finally time to take action.
The ancient jade borrowed from Dong Qingyan was held in the palm of his hand, continuously infusing true essence to shield his whole body’s aura and true essence traces.
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. In the forest, Yang Kai’s speed was like the wind as he directly approached Alchemy Saint Peak.
It took only half an hour before and after, and Yang Kai arrived at a position three hundred zhang below Alchemy Saint Peak. From here upwards, it was the forbidden area.
Listening carefully for a long time, Yang Kai crouched down and continued to move upwards.
He didn’t stop until he got close to about a hundred zhang.
Looking up at the sky, waiting quietly for the passage of time.
