Chapter 178: Removing the Curse
The next day, in a rather quiet valley among the majestic valley was dotted with gorgeous flowers. In the center of the valley, there was a platform built with warm jade. At this moment, many figures were standing around the platform.
"Master Xiao, this is the place our Hua Sect has prepared for you. Is it ok with you?" The Great Elder said with a smile, pointing at the jade platform in front of him.
Xiao Yun did not speak immediately, but released his soul power to sense the surrounding environment, then looked up at the cliff above and asked, "When I refine the elixir, there shouldn't be anyone watching from above, right?"
The Great Elder followed Xiao Yun's gaze and realized that he was referring to the cliffs on both sides of the valley. He assured him, "Master Xiao, don't worry! When you start refining the medicine, I will block this area. No elders or disciples of the Hua Sect will approach here until you finish refining the medicine."
Hearing this, Xiao Yun nodded, then waved his hand and said, "In that case, everyone please leave. I'm going to start refining the elixir!"
"This time, I'm refining two seventh-grade high-level pills and one sixth-grade high-level pill, a total of three pills. I estimate that it will take half a month to refine. During this time, unless it is a matter of life and death, don't disturb me!"
"Don't worry, Master Xiao!"
The Great Elder agreed solemnly, glanced around, and then led the other elders to the valley, instructing the other elders to completely seal off the area.
After sensing that the Hua Zong elder had indeed sealed off the surroundings, Xiao Yun let out a light breath and waved his hand. A huge medicine cauldron flew out of the storage ring and hovered on the high platform.
Then, he took a step forward, walked onto the jade platform, looked at the warm jade under his feet, and with a simple wave of his hand, nearly a hundred medicinal herbs flew out from the storage ring.
Unlike before, Hua Zong's jade platform can keep the medicinal materials active temporarily, so Xiao Yun directly let the medicinal materials fall to the ground, without even having to open the jade box.
Smelling the strong medicinal fragrance, Xiao Yun's face gradually calmed down. He spread out his palms, and a pitch-black flame emerged from his palms, condensing into a small black dragon, wandering in the air.
He didn't know if it was because of the swallowing of the Three Thousand Flames, but he felt that the Eight Desolate Destruction Flame was increasingly fond of transforming into a dragon. Its original form was a dragon before, but now even the flame transformed from its fighting spirit had turned into the shape of a little black dragon.
Thoughts flashed through his mind, and then Xiao Yun snapped his fingers, and a black fire dragon flashed out, then drilled into the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron like lightning. Only a muffled sound was heard from the cauldron, and a blazing fire burned in it.
In the pitch-black flames, you can vaguely see a little fire dragon swimming inside.
"I still have to maintain my dragon form inside..." He shook his head with amusement. He waved his hand and a dozen medicinal herbs flew out from the jade table. He threw them all into the medicine cauldron and began to refine them...
……
The time required to refine pills, especially high-level pills, is generally not too short. Originally, everyone in the Hua Sect thought that the half a month mentioned by Xiao Yun was the minimum deadline, but they did not expect that he could really refine all the pills in such a short time.
Between heaven and earth, a shocking sound resounded throughout the entire valley, and then a powerful wave of heaven and earth swept out. The next moment, a pillar of black fire reached straight to the sky from the valley, and at the end of the sky, countless dark clouds began to gather.
"Master Xiao is truly terrifying. In just half a month, he actually managed to refine two eighth-grade pills!"
These days, the disciples and elders who were in charge of guarding this place had their eyes opened and they truly witnessed the terrifying power of being the most talented alchemist in Zhongzhou.
Xiao Yun said at first that he was only going to refine two seventh-grade pills and one sixth-grade pill. However, half a month later, with the help of the alchemy master's technique, the grades of these pills were all upgraded by one level, from sixth-grade to seventh-grade, and from seventh-grade to eighth-grade!
"If Master Xiao wasn't powerful, why would our Hua Sect invite him to come and treat the old Sect Master?"
While everyone was talking, a woman in a brocade robe looked at the thunderclouds in the sky in disbelief, with a hint of fear in her eyes.
"Damn it, Xiao Yun's alchemy skills are so powerful, isn't it possible that the old immortal can be cured by him?" Hua Jin looked at the thunderclouds in the sky. Unlike other Hua Sect disciples and elders, she hoped that Xiao Yun would fail in alchemy and that Granny Hua would be cursed and die.
When I think about what I had done in the past, what if Grandma Hua was really cured by Xiao Yun and returned to her peak strength.
Although she is a Dou Zun warrior and it is impossible for her to be kicked out of Hua Sect directly, she will lose the support of the people and will never have the chance to become the sect leader of Hua Sect.
But she didn't dare to stop them directly. Everyone could see the love that the two Qinghua immortals had for Xiao Yun, so she could only curse silently in her heart and pray that Xiao Yun would fail.
But everything was not as she imagined. As the three-colored thunder fell into the valley, it did not cause any ripples, as if it was completely swallowed up by a mysterious force.
……
"Huh!" After absorbing all the pill thunder, Xiao Yun stretched out his hand and trapped the pill that turned into a green crane and was about to escape from the valley in space, and then pulled it back.
"My alchemy skills have improved a lot. These pills can be made in one furnace."
Pinching the round green pill between his fingers, Xiao Yun sighed and put it into the jade bottle. Then, he flashed and arrived above the valley.
"Master Xiao, has the elixir been refined?" Seeing Xiao Yun's appearance, a graceful figure flew out from among the many Hua Sect guards. It was Elder Hua Kui.
"That's right, we can start treating Grandma Hua now." Xiao Yun nodded slightly and handed the pill in his hand to Hua Kui, who took it in his hand, looked at it for a while, and then returned it to him.
"Master Xiao, don't you need to rest?" "No, just lead the way."
He was already very capable in refining these pills, and with the baptism of the three-colored pill thunder, his fighting spirit and spirit have returned to their peak state, so he naturally does not need to rest anymore.
Listening to Xiao Yun's words, Hua Kui did not dare to refute, so she nodded, then flew in the air and led him to the place where Grandma Hua was treating him.
……
A moment later, Hua Kui brought Xiao Yun to land in front of a secret room. She pointed forward and said, "Master Xiao, Grandma is inside. Please go in."
"Yeah." Xiao Yun nodded slightly, then walked slowly forward, pushed open the door and walked in.
There were not many people in the secret room, only three, namely Granny Hua who was paralyzed in bed, Yun Yun who was serving her, and Nalan Yanran.
Seeing Xiao Yun coming, Yun Yun and Granny Hua showed excitement on their faces and said, "Master Xiao, you are here... Can Granny be treated?"
"That's right, all the pills have been refined." With a touch of his hand on the storage ring, three jade bottles flashed in the air and were placed by Xiao Yun on the wooden table beside him.
"Later, I will use the strange fire to invade your body and remove the curse in your body. The process may be a little painful."
Granny Hua sat up with Yun Yun's help and said, "Don't worry, it's just the strange fire that's used to forge the body. I understand it."
"Then do we need to go out?" Yun Yun asked.
It is crucial that you stay here!
"No need." Xiao Yun thought secretly in his heart, turned his head to look at Nalan Yanran beside him, and said, "Yanran, take off all the bedding on the bed first, and then help your teacher to support Granny Hua."
After saying that, he looked at Granny Hua again, his face solemn, and said in a deep voice: "Granny, you need to take off your clothes later and turn your back to me. The temperature of the strange fire is too terrifying, so be careful not to burn your clothes."
"what?"
Hearing this, Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran were shocked. No wonder they were asked to stay. It would be too embarrassing if they didn't stay.
"Okay, I understand." Granny Hua nodded, then turned her back to Xiao Yun, and with the help of Yun Yun, she began to take off her upper body clothes.
"call!"
Xiao Yun breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Fortunately, this strange old lady didn't say anything weird, otherwise he would really collapse.
After all, in his heart, he is the one who suffers the most, right?
As Yun Yun waved her hands up and down, Grandma Hua's upper body clothes were taken off, even the hairband was taken off and placed on the chair next to the bed.
The gray hair fell casually, revealing Grandma Hua's scarred back, which was covered with scars of various sizes.
The most dangerous thing was the knife mark in the middle, which almost split the entire back in two.
"Okay, you two stand aside. Granny Hua, I'm going to start using the strange fire next." After asking Yun Yun and the other two to stand by the wall, Xiao Yun said to Granny Hua.
"Come on though."
Hearing this, Xiao Yun closed his eyes slightly and formed seals with his hands. The next moment, a wisp of pitch-black flame surged out from his palms and flew towards the opponent's back.
The moment the flame appeared, the temperature of the entire secret room suddenly rose. Yun Yun and the other person standing by broke out in beads of sweat on their foreheads, but they were afraid that it would affect Xiao Yun, so they did not dare to use their fighting spirit to resist.
Fortunately, he sensed the condition of the two people, and with a wave of his hand, a transparent Dou Qi barrier covered Yun Yun and the other person, isolating them from the extreme temperature in the room.
The pitch-black flame flew slowly, and under Xiao Yun's control, it carefully stuck to Grandma Hua's back and then drilled into her body.
"Hmph!" The moment the strange fire entered her body, even with her cultivation level of a peak Dou Zun, Granny Hua couldn't help but let out a painful snort. She frowned, clenched her teeth, and endured tremendous pain.
"Granny Hua, hold on, this is just the beginning!"
Xiao Yun gave an instruction, and then a surge of soul perception surged out, following the pitch-black flames, and continuously entered the opponent's body.
The soul power controlled the flame and first attached to Grandma Hua's spine. With the soul's perception, even if Xiao Yun closed his eyes, he could clearly "see" the cold energy on the bones.
When I wrote a thousand words, I really wanted to give up.
