Killing God

Chapter 138 Pill Meeting (2)

The crisp cloud board sound still seems to linger in the ears, but the open flame hall has fallen into silence again, only the thin ray of fireworks rising from the top of the hall, as if revealing what is happening in the silence inside.

In the depths of the Minghuo Hall, more than fifty feet deep down, is a pill refining point. In the past, the ancestors of the Lingxiao Zongdan Hall who had great powers to reach the sky used secret methods to attract earth fire, and the formation was restricted. A place most suitable for alchemy. There is a huge circular grotto with twenty-two alchemy rooms around it. Whether it is the quality of the earth fire or the configuration of the alchemy, it is second to none in the Lingxiao Sect. I don't know how many elixir has been refined here for many years. Add luster to the 10,000-year-old Ling Xiaozong.

And this important alchemy will be held here under the auspices of Elder Yun Ni himself.

From early in the morning until now, the alchemy has not stopped. The alchemy disciples who participated in the alchemy were directly assigned to a room for practicing "None" and "Wrong", and the required spiritual materials were naturally equipped. After sending it in, all that was left was facing the ground fire pill furnace alone in this alchemy room, walking a dangerous wire-like path on alchemy that couldn't make any mistakes.

Zhong Qinglu was in the fourth alchemy room on her left. At this moment, she was sitting on the ground in a corner of the alchemy room. Her face was pale, her eyes were lost, her breathing was a bit short, and she could even see some cold sweat on the side of her forehead.

After three consecutive rounds of alchemy, even a cultivator in the Ning Yuan realm would be a little overwhelmed in physical strength. What's more, it’s not unusual today. The rules of the Pill Society have long been stated. Failure once is eliminated. In contrast, this I am afraid that the pressure on the mind may not be less than the pressure on the physical strength, and it is even worse.

But when the third spirit pill came out, Zhong Qinglu only felt that the strength of her whole body seemed to have disappeared all at once, and she couldn't care about anything else, so she just found a place to sit down and rested against the wall.

A young female Dantang disciple came in and took away the panacea, with a look of sympathy and envy, she glanced at Zhong Qinglu, and then silently retreated. Zhong Qinglu turned her cheeks slightly, staying in a daze for a while, then stretched out her sleeves and gently wiped the drops of sweat on her forehead.

After sitting for a while, the door of the alchemy room suddenly opened again, and the female disciple just walked in again, holding a tray in her hand, on which were all properly configured spiritual materials, and then came over gently Put it in front of Zhong Qinglu.

Zhong Qinglu looked down at the tray, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and her face seemed pale again. The female disciple gave her a worried look and whispered: "Senior Sister Qinglu, are you okay?"

Zhong Qinglu was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "How many people are left?"

The female disciple hesitated for a moment, perhaps because she didn’t want to offend Zhong Qinglu at this juncture, or she wanted to have a good relationship with this senior sister who seemed to have hope to survive until the end and had a promising future. She bowed her head slightly and did not speak, but The palm of one hand placed on the tray suddenly bends, the thumb is bent, and the other four fingers are straightened.

Zhong Qinglu glanced at her palm, nodded slightly, and said nothing. The female disciple glanced at her and hurriedly got up and walked out.

"Are there four more people..."

When the door of the alchemy room closed again, Zhong Qinglu was a little dazed. She leaned against the stone wall and looked at the flat stone wall above her head. She felt exhausted physically and mentally. At this moment, she had almost lost her confidence.

She thought that it would be a little difficult to win the opportunity to worship Elder Yunni, but never thought it would be so difficult. The brothers and sisters who competed with her for this opportunity were familiar and unfamiliar. I haven't seen them, but in the past month, everyone suddenly seems to have become unfamiliar, and they are desperately desperate in alchemy.

Perhaps, everyone, every monk, regardless of men and women, has a desire to be higher and stronger. I used to think that with some talent and family support, I would be able to stand out. It was really naive.

She smiled a little bitterly, her expression was a little sad, saying that it was the support of the family. In fact, in this critical period, how could the already defeated Zhong family really support her? Even she was in retreat during this period. The main materials of the honed spiritual materials were mostly given by Shen Shi privately.

Thinking of Shen Shi, the figure of the man appeared involuntarily in front of her. Thinking about it now, it seems that she hasn't seen him for a long time. After all, she should have been retreating immediately after returning to the mountain. It has been more than a month now. , Don't know how he is now?

He must have been very uncomfortable when his father insulted him for no reason that day.

Seeing how he left angrily that day, he must be angry, right?

Zhong Qinglu sighed slightly, and suddenly there was a bit of inexplicable softness in the bottom of her heart. Maybe after going out this time, we should find him and explain it to him, right?

It's just that suddenly she changed her mind and thought, if Danhui didn't hold on to the end this time, would he be a little disappointed if he loses?

She pursed her lips slightly, and thought for a moment, but suddenly she laughed, with a faint smile, and she thought that since he regarded this as a deal, after he failed, he must have beaten his chest. , How did it happen, blind, and throwing so many things on a fool?

After thinking about it, her expression gradually became really happy, and even the original tiredness seemed to be relieved a lot.

Suddenly, the sound of the cloud board reappeared, crisp but as if carrying heavy pressure like a mountain.

Zhong Qinglu stared at the tray containing various spiritual materials in front of her, her eyes gradually clear, a bit of tenderness, all in her size. She lightly picked up the tray, took a deep breath, then suddenly smiled, stood up, but said to herself, softly:

"I'm not a fool! Just wait!"

The laughter was soft but gentle, echoing in this alchemy room, as if adding a bit of softness. The woman raised her head and walked towards the alchemy furnace surrounded by ground fire again. The fire light reflected her red. Her cheeks were reflected in her bright eyes, and she was even more pretty.

※※※

Outside the Flame Hall, although the atmosphere is not as solemn and solemn as the inside of the main hall, everyone knows that these rounds are coming down, and I am afraid that the Danhui is almost at the end. If there is no accident, there will be at most one or two rounds. The final winner is about to be decided.

After all, there are almost no dumb people who can practice on Jinhong Mountain, including those who participated in the alchemy meeting. After half a day's work, almost all of them have been secretly spread to judge their usual alchemy level, and then Coupled with their respective Taoist realms, many people have already judged that the limits of these disciples will almost be able to hold on to this point.

Standing in the corner of the crowd, Shen Shi and Sun You looked a little dignified. Sun You whispered: "The remaining four people, including Zhong Qinglu, are all Taoists in the Ning Yuan realm, and they are all about the same age. , After all, Elder Yun Ni’s apprenticeship is more important to the future potential. However, one of them heard that he has cultivated to the high level of the Ning Yuan realm. I am afraid that in the end, Zhong Qinglu may not be able to beat him, and his physical strength can't keep up."

In addition to costing a lot of effort during alchemy, the fire of the earth fire pill is also extraordinary flames, even for the cultivators of the Ning Yuan realm, it is a lot of expense, not to mention that they always pay attention to the fire in this situation. The spirit pill, it is really impossible to make any mistakes.

Sun You shook his head, with a look of fear on his face, and whispered: "Mother, what the **** are the people in this pill hall? A pill can actually be like this, is it accepting disciples or harming others?"

Shen Shi was silent for a moment, and said, "Perhaps the elder Yun Ni is using this as a test to test everyone in the school."

Sun You nodded and said, "You can only think so."

Shen Shi glanced at him, and suddenly moved in his heart. After hesitating for a while, he looked around, and then dragged Sun You to the other side where there was no one. Sun You was a little surprised and said: "Okay, you pull What am I doing here?"

Shen Shi said, "I have something I want to tell you." As he said, he leaned to Sun You's side, lowered his voice, and briefly told Sun You from beginning to end what he was favored by Elder Shutang Pu.

Sun You listened, his eyes lit up involuntarily, and in the end he was surprised and almost shouted: "What, you actually..."

Before he finished his words, Shen Shi was already covering his mouth. Sun You made a few "oooo" sounds, but there was joy in his face and eyes, and he hammered Shen Shi's chest heavily. Shi smiled and let go of his hand.

Sun You looked at him up and down, laughed, but lowered his voice, and said: "Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, you stinky boy still has this kind of luck, hateful, I had known that I also learned more five elements spells. what."

Shen Shi snorted and said: "Come on, you will learn to be weird, but this matter is still undecided. Don't talk about it everywhere."

Sun You nodded and said, "I know, you can rest assured."

Shen Shi glanced at the open flame hall in the distance, and then took Sun You to walk there again, while saying: "But you have to do me a favor right now."

Sun You slapped his chest and said in a big way: "We are two brothers, you can say whatever you want."

※※※

Outside the open fire hall, some people waited impatiently at the end of the day to walk first, and some people arrived later, but in general the number of people gathered has increased unabated, and the long hour was silent. In the past, when the cloud board sounded again, the sky was already dusk.

The setting sun slowly fell at the end of the distant sea, and the dim light illuminates the sunset clouds on the horizon, and in this little sunset light, in the already thrilling sound of the cloud, two figures walked out.

The swaying body seemed to fall down with a blow, and it looked as if it had exhausted all of its mind and energy, and the pale face looked like a dead person, and there was a look of despair in his eyes. When the goal falls at the last step, it is difficult for anyone to accept the pain.

A Dantang disciple came and helped them to walk away. Shen Shi and Sun You looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. This time, Zhong Qinglu was still missing. In other words, there are only the last two left now, Zhong Qinglu is one of them, and the next round of alchemy, everyone inside and outside the open flame hall can see that it is obviously the final battle.

Whether it is success or failure, the future is boundless, or the crowds, at this moment.

The sound of whispers and discussions suddenly rang again in the crowd outside the hall, Zhong Qinglu and the other remaining disciple Lin Jingde's names were discussed by countless people almost simultaneously.

Sun You turned his head, frowned slightly, with a look of worry, and said: "Lin Jingde is the high-level disciple of the Ning Yuan realm. He was born in the Lin family of Floating Cloud City and has always been valued by the family. The second time I am afraid I have smashed countless blood, it is really better than to the end..." He didn't say any more, just shook his head slowly.

I don’t know when the sky has darkened. The disciples on the Dantang side lit a few bonfires directly outside the main hall. The blazing fire illuminates the nearby places and is reflected in Shen Shi’s eyes, looking silent. In his eyes, there seemed to be two flames burning silently, staring silently at the hall of open flames that stood tall in the dark.

In the depths of the hall, what is she now?
