Chapter 228 Frame and shift the blame, divert attention!
“This, this, this… so many pills?”
The four old women of the Snake Tribe were stunned, their mouths wide open, looking at the pills in front of them in disbelief. They had never seen so many sixth-grade pills in their lives.
The snake people are born with cold blood. Although there are cultivators with fire-attributed fighting spirit, they have never produced a pharmacist.
Among the snake people, elixirs are thought to be extremely scarce. Not to mention elixirs that assist in cultivation and improve one’s realm, even general healing medicines and elixirs for restoring fighting spirit are very rare among the snake people, and they are basically kept as strategic reserves.
However, now, there were so many elixirs that could be used to improve their realm in front of them.
Seeing the shocked expressions of the elders, Medusa’s lips curled up slightly and she couldn’t help but laugh:
“I forgot to tell the elders that my husband is a seventh-rank alchemist.”
“What?” The four elders shuddered and looked at Lu Yu in disbelief. They originally thought that this was the young master of that powerful force, but they never expected that this was made by him personally.
“Excuse me, elders.” Lu Yu smiled, very humble, neither arrogant nor humble.
Before returning to the Jia Ma Empire, Lu Yu worked desperately to refine pills and prepared sufficient reserves of pills for the war, including a large number of pills for healing, improving realms, assisting in breaking levels, and restoring fighting spirit.
But he didn’t expect that the Lion Nether Sect would get involved, and he took his people to rush to destroy the Lion Nether Sect. The medicine reserves in the ring had not been used up yet. The six sect-breaking pills in front of him were some of the ones that Lu Yu had refined in the valley.
“Elders, please accept it.” Medusa said.
“Ahem… no, this kind of thing is a strategic resource within the clan and should be distributed by the clan leader.” The great elder came back to his senses and said in a deep voice: “Your Majesty, please accept it!”
Medusa frowned and was about to refuse, but when she remembered that Lu Yu told her that he had to reach the Dou Zong level before leaving the Jia Ma Empire, she hesitated for a moment and accepted it.
“In that case… the first elder has been rewarded for his service in guarding the desert, and the third elder has been rewarded for his service in opening up new territories. I will reward each of them with a sect-breaking pill!” Medusa took the jade bottle from Lu Yu, snapped her fingers, and shot out two pills.
“Second Elder and Fourth Elder, please wait for a moment until the First Elder and Third Elder finish their retreat.”
“Yes, Your Majesty!” The four elders had no objection. Although the Breaking Sect Pill had the magical effect of helping the peak Dou Huang to break through to the Dou Zong level, its failure rate was not low.
However, one thing that is better than the Tianyun Pill is that it can be taken repeatedly. If you fail once, you can take it twice, and if you fail twice, you can take it three times.
There are many Douhuang peak-level warriors in the Snake People Tribe, but the distribution of elixirs needs to be done slowly, in an effort to produce a Douzong-level warrior among the five Douhuang peak-level warriors.
……
After the matter with the Snake People was settled, Lu Yu returned to the Black Mountain Palace. Medusa stayed in the Snake People tribe temporarily to deal with the follow-up matters, mainly the distribution of the Po Zong Dan.
In a study room in the Black Mountain Palace, Lu Yu took out a long scroll, spread it out and hung it on the wall, examining it carefully.
This is a map with mountains, rivers, sects, and everything else marked on it. In the center is a place called Mist Thistle Swamp within the Yuanyi Empire.
According to the information he got from Protector Xuan, one of the two Soul Palace branches he knew of was here.
Touching his chin, Lu Yu flipped his palm and took out another scroll. This was given by Xiao Yan and contained information about the Soul Palace’s Mist Thistle Swamp branch.
During the battle at Canaan Academy, Xiao Yan obtained the souls of two Soul Palace’s Heavenly Grade Guardians, and through interrogation, he obtained intelligence about this branch palace.
Although there are conflicts of interest between Lu Yu and Xiao Yan, and they often make deals with each other, they are in contact with each other regarding intelligence from the Soul Palace and will communicate with each other whenever there is any news.
Lu Yu once explained to Xiao Yan the structure of the Soul Palace, including the three palaces of Heaven, Earth and Man and the nine great Celestial Lords, as well as two palace masters, one main and one deputy. Xiao Yan felt so pressured after hearing this that he almost fainted.
Xiao Yan returned the favor by also giving Lu Yu a lot of information, but the value of the information he had was pitifully small, and only this one was barely acceptable.
“Have you set your sights on the Soul Palace?” Seeing Lu Yu carefully examining the Soul Palace information, Venerable Skyfire couldn’t help but ask in his ring.
In his era, although the Soul Palace had been established, it was not well-known. It was far from having the reputation of one palace and one tower that resounded throughout Zhongzhou and even the entire Douqi Continent.
But during the time he was with Lu Yu, Venerable Tianhuo came into contact with a lot of information related to the Soul Palace. He originally thought it was a small, unknown force, but he didn’t expect it to be a behemoth with a four-star Douluo in charge.
“Mr. Yao, do you remember the soul origin I mentioned?” Lü Yu chuckled and said, “Each soul palace has an extremely huge soul origin.”
The snow-white storage ring trembled, and Venerable Tianhuo knew that Lu Yu had not given up the idea of using the origin of the soul to advance to the spiritual realm. He always felt that this method was unlikely, and he had never seen anyone who advanced to the spiritual realm without the help of spiritual energy.
But in fact, Lu Yu was also helpless about this, and there was nothing he could do about it.
In the original novel, Xiao Yan entered the Dan Realm and found the thousand-year-old Earth Soul Marrow as soon as he landed. After strolling around for a few times, he found the Dan Lingjiang. Finally, with the help of Xiong Zhan, he also obtained the Gastrodia Jade Essence.
He tilted his head back, swallowed, closed his mouth, and then broke through to the spiritual realm soul at the right time.
Lu Yu once thought that he could easily break through the spiritual realm of soul, and could easily find the medicinal materials needed to break through the spiritual realm of soul. After all, he had obtained the Gastrodia elata jade stone essence, so the Danling juice and the thousand-year-old earth soul marrow should not be far away, right?
But reality soon hit him hard. There was only Rehmannia glutinosa in the treasure house of the Lion Nether Sect, and it was not even a thousand years old.
The Tianshe Mansion had never even heard of these two things, Danlingjiang and Earth Soul Marrow, and knew nothing about them.
However, Venerable Green Snake did know about the Rehmannia Python, but he did not know that this Rehmannia Python was guarding the Rehmannia Essence and the Earth’s Soul Marrow.
However, even so, in the experience of Lord Green Snake, there were no Rehmannia glutinosa pythons in the Northwestern Continent. The Rehmannia glutinosa pythons he knew of were in the Western Regions of Central China, and he had traveled to the Western Regions of Central China in the past.
The two major forces in the Northwest Continent have not found any information about the Earth’s Soul Marrow and the Dan Lingjiang, which means that the probability of Lu Yu being able to break through the spiritual realm of the soul in the Northwest Continent is very low.
But Lu Yu didn’t think so. Isn’t there still the origin of the soul?
This thing can help Xuwu Tunyan advance to the Emperor Realm soul, so it can help me advance to the Spirit Realm soul, right?
It’s impossible that I can’t get promoted without Emperor Hun Tian by my side, right?
Therefore, without any hesitation, Lu Yu set his sights on the Soul Palace branch. He was very clear about the strength of this palace. The elder was Xiu Tu, whom he had dealt with before, and his strength was a two-star Dou Zun.
In addition, there are ten Dou Zong-level Heaven-level Guardians, and the number of Earth-level and Human-level Guardians varies, totaling twenty, as well as varying numbers of Soul Envoys.
Compared with the Soul Palace, the Lion Nether Sect is like a nouveau riche!
Although there seem to be a lot of Dou Zongs, nearly thirty of them, they are basically soul bodies and cannot be considered true Dou Zongs.
Lu Yu has many means to restrain soul bodies, and the soul body advantages of the Soul Palace are actually disadvantages in front of him.
“So… do you really want to destroy a branch of the Soul Palace?” Skyfire Venerable was a little worried. The last time he faced off against the Soul Palace Dou Zun, he was protected by the Ancient Clan, the Thunder Clan, and the Medicine Clan, so he avoided any subsequent retaliation.
However, this time… there is nothing pressing down on the Soul Palace!
“Wouldn’t it be fine if we just keep our hands clean?” Lu Yu said with a smile. If we kill all the people in the Soul Hall branch and don’t let the news leak out, then no one will know that the branch was destroyed, right?
Besides, it’s not like we haven’t done this kind of thing before, and we’re very good at it!
Looking at Lu Yu who was eager to try, Venerable Tianhuo grinned, not knowing what to say.
Could it be that this kid already had this plan when he asked someone for fire?
What a scoundrel! But… I feel much more relieved now!
Lord Skyfire chuckled and suddenly became expectant.
Lu Yu snapped his fingers, and the Youhai Ring flashed with light. A golden-haired corpse and a pair of bone wings as smooth as jade appeared in front of him with a “dong”.
“Which one should I refine first?” Lu Yu touched his chin and couldn’t help but curl up the corners of his mouth. He was really a little worried!
……
In the north of the western region of Zhongzhou, in a forest!
A team of black-armored men were searching in the mountains and forests. From time to time, birds and beasts flew up and hummed beside them. From time to time, fighting spirit surged, and the formation made a faint sound and streams of light flew up.
Above the sky, a figure in green floated out of thin air, with a faint fighting spirit constantly appearing and flickering around him. This person had a strong build, with long flowing hair, but his face was as dark as water and looked extremely solemn.
Swish!
There was a flash of a figure beside him, and a black-armored figure with wings on his back appeared beside him.
“Fourth Commander, according to analysis, Hun Ya and Hun Huai did not travel together, but separated.”
The man known as the Fourth Commander suddenly looked gloomy: “Haha… these two really don’t take our Black Annihilation Army seriously!”
The man pursed his lips, anger still surging in his eyes. When had their Black Annihilation Army ever been looked down upon like this?
“Can you determine the direction?” the fourth commander asked in a deep voice.
“Hun Huai disappeared and there was no trace of him. I guess he may have returned to the Soul Realm. Instead, he went north to Hun Ya, but he was very cautious and we were unable to track down his specific whereabouts.”
The fourth commander nodded slightly. Although Hun Ya was domineering and arrogant, he was not a fool. It was impossible for him to leave his traces for people to find. If he really left them… he, the fourth commander of the Black Annihilation Army, might not dare to chase after him openly.
“Give up on Hun Huai and make him pay for his blood debt with blood later. Let’s deal with Hun Ya first and search to the north.” The Fourth Commander said. Hun Huai has entered the Soul Realm. Not to mention the Black Annihilation Army, even the Council of Elders dare not have any ideas and can only wait for him to come out next time.
As for Hun Ya…he is dead!
“Miss, is it okay?” The fourth commander said, shouting towards a tree canopy.
“Yang Hao, I remember I told you to address people by their job titles when you are working!” An ethereal and crisp voice came from the treetops, but the voice was extremely cold.
“…Yes, Grand Commander!” The fourth commander Yang Hao’s eyes twitched slightly and he said respectfully that the young lady was really too cold to him.
Fortunately, she is like this to everyone, not just him… However, further north is the Northwest Continent. He still remembers what happened the last time he came to the Northwest Continent, Xiao Yan… hehe!
There was a gleam in Yang Hao’s eyes. If the young lady had not been there this time, he would have definitely accomplished what he failed to do last time at Canaan College and let that boy know what pain is!
Yang Hao secretly hated Xiao Yan in his heart, thinking that Xiao Yan, the only person who disturbed the young lady’s mood, should not be alive.
“Let’s go, set off and search to the north!” Yang Hao shouted, turned around and headed north.
This time, the Black Annihilation Army was carrying out a search mission and did not bring out the four-winged unicorn. What’s more, the Northwest Continent is just a remote and barren place. Why would it need the assistance of a four-winged unicorn?
……
Ape Empire, Misty Thistle Swamp!
With a whoosh, a figure cut through the heavy miasma and rushed towards a hall deep in the swamp.
“Who is it, how dare you…” A loud shout was heard, but before he could finish his words, a pitch-black iron chain had already wrapped around his throat, and the words that had just reached his mouth were instantly blocked.
“Tsk… you’re quite alert!” Hun Ya looked at the soul that was bound by him and smiled gently, not knowing whether it was praise or sarcasm.
Before he finished speaking, there was a distortion in the void, and Xiu Tu Zun, who was sitting in charge of this branch hall, slowly walked out.
“Who are you?” asked Elder Xiu Tu in a deep voice. The soul chain in this person’s hand could basically be said to belong to one of his own, but… where did it come from and what was its purpose?
Elder Xiu Tu felt a little depressed. Could it be that the headquarters was investigating Qin Tian’s death?
Wasn’t that incident over a long time ago? Why did they suddenly send someone here?
Hun Ya chuckled, raised his hand, and a pitch-black token appeared in his palm.
Elder Xiu Tu’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly lowered his head and said respectfully, “I greet the envoy!”
He is the elder of the branch hall and has certain qualifications to contact people of the Soul Clan. Many matters of the Soul Hall are managed by the hall master, and other people of the Soul Clan cannot interfere at will.
If you want to intervene, you have to obey the orders of the Palace Master and join the Soul Palace. If you don’t join, you can’t intervene. The people of the Soul Palace have the right to ignore the people of the Soul Clan without receiving orders.
But the elders in the Soul Palace are very experienced and shrewd, so how could they do such a thing? They call the people of the Soul Clan who have not joined the Soul Palace messengers, and try their best to satisfy and make friends with the people in the Soul Palace. After all, they are a big support!
The Soul Palace Master turned a blind eye to this. As long as it did not affect the Millennium Plan and the Soul Palace’s layout, he would accept it. It was not a big deal if they helped each other a little.
“My purpose of coming here is for Xiao Yan, so please help me, elder.” Hun Ya said with a smile. Although he was ruthless and domineering, he was not stupid.
Capturing Xiao Yan and finding the key is not an easy task. If it were easy, the clan wouldn’t have gained nothing over the years.
This matter requires the cooperation of this local snake, especially some time ago, the Dou Zun in front of him had fought with Xiao Yan and Canaan Academy.
“It’s your honor!” Elder Xiu Tuzun said in a deep voice, but… his heart sank. This envoy only had the cultivation level of Dou Zong, not even Dou Zun. If he wanted to capture Xiao Yan and Yao Chen… it would probably be extremely difficult.
“Please come in, envoy. I will tell you all the information I know, but…please forgive my frankness. Although Xiao Yan has left Canaan Academy, he is not easy to deal with. Without Dou Zun strength, I am afraid it will be difficult to succeed.”
“Oh? What you said makes me more interested. Let’s go inside the hall and talk. I’m actually very curious about what abilities a ruined Xiao clan can have. Hahaha…”
……
Gama Empire, Montenegro Palace!
Lord Skyfire floated above the secret room, looking at the golden light bursting out from the green fire from time to time, and couldn’t help but sigh. What a powerful aura, that puppet was almost at the peak of the four-star Dou Zun level.
How can an old man like me live like this…
Chapter 229: He is both civil and military, unique!
Montenegro Palace!
“Sky Demon Phoenix Wings…”
Lord Skyfire looked at the green flame floating in front of Lu Yu, with a pair of jade-white bone wings wrapped in the flame, and couldn’t help but mutter.
This kid has so many treasures on him!
Skyfire Venerable was so envious that his gums ached. When he was at the peak of his cultivation, he did not have a puppet with the strength of a four-star Dou Zun to protect him, nor did he have the flying fighting skills cultivated from the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Wings.
However, Lu Yu is only a Dou Huang, but he can have such a treasure that even he, a Dou Zun, covets. How can people not be envious?
Lu Yu ignored the envious look of Skyfire Venerable. He was concentrating on refining the bone wings bit by bit. In the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire, the jade-like bone wings had shrunk to about ten feet in length.
The bone wings were covered with tiny silver lines, flashing silver light from time to time. There was also a circle of faint green light lingering around the bone wings, and the sound of wind whistling could be heard faintly.
The Sky Demon Phoenix clan, in addition to many secret blood skills, is best at the power of wind and thunder.
