The child looked at the man, a sinister glint flashing in his eyes, but he still gave a strange chuckle and said:
"Alright, bring the item back after you find it. If someone else gets to it first, there's nothing we can do."
As he spoke, the child took out a stack of paper from his chest, quickly pulled out three sheets, and handed them to the man.
The man looked at the paper the child handed him, then took out a pair of gloves from his chest and put them on before taking the paper and looking through it.
"When did the Blood Tower become so cautious?"
The child was taken aback by the man's actions, and a thought inexplicably arose in his mind.
Meanwhile, the man looked through the detailed information of the three tasks, his face remained expressionless, and he turned and walked outside.
Once back outside the pavilion, the man merged into the crowd and disappeared before long.
Soon, the man arrived at a secluded tavern in Chaos City and sat down.
In the Upper Realm, taverns mainly provide a relatively private area rather than food.
After all, food is already insignificant to cultivators in the Upper Realm. They are more concerned with a private area that can be found at any time.
For example, for transactions, for dual cultivation with humans or monsters, or for cultivation, etc.
Especially in a place like the Land of Chaos, the frequency of use of taverns has exceeded that of brothels, becoming one of the most frequented areas for all cultivators.
The man sat in a room provided by the tavern, and then used the oil lamp in the room to carefully look through the leaflets in his hand.
The man was naturally Ding Yi in disguise.
And Ding Yi's purpose for this trip was simple: he had to find a way to find the person who sent the message and then kill him.
And the best way to find the source of this person is to catch himself and hand himself in.
Ding Yi casually threw the other two leaflets aside and picked up the one about finding himself and began to read it.
After a moment, Ding Yi put down the leaflet, and a look of contemplation appeared on his face.
"So it seems that the person looking for me is most likely from the Little Yuan Palace."
"But how dare the people from the Little Yuan Palace be so bold? This is the Land of Chaos!"
Thinking of this, Ding Yi's mouth suddenly curled into a grin.
He had already thought of a good way to give the person who wanted to find him a huge surprise.
On the other side, inside a pavilion in the city.
Zhu Wanyin was comfortably lying on a recliner, his hands placed above his dantian, his eyes slightly closed, inhaling the black smoke drifting from the side.
After a while, he groaned, then slowly sat up from the chair, but his eyes were still closed, and he slowly asked:
"How is it going?"
Behind him, one of the two black-robed guards slowly said:
"Reporting to Xuanjun Wanyin, the Dark Tower has already sent out the message, but interestingly, many of those who accepted the task these days seem to have died outside."
Zhu Wanyin sneered upon hearing this, then opened his eyes and looked ahead, slowly saying:
"It seems that the little mouse has smelled something."
The black-robed man was stunned upon hearing this, then slowly said:
"Xuanjun, this is after all the territory of the Demon Palace, although it is only a peripheral city, are we staying here for too long?"
Zhu Wanyin sneered upon hearing the black-robed man's words, and said:
"Do you know why you and Jumo have been stuck in the early stage of Xuanjun for a hundred years without any progress?"
"Because you have lost the heart of a strong person!"
"A mere border town in the Land of Chaos, the city lord is only at the True Person realm, why be so timid?"
"I, Zhu Wanyin, have killed countless Xuanjun, and even ants see me as a celestial being. The True Person realm is unattainable for you, but for me, it is not impossible to fight!"
As Zhu Wanyin spoke, he stood up, took a deep breath, felt the surging true power in his body, and then said:
"I have a feeling that as long as I catch this little mouse and use its body to refine the Ascension Paste, I will be able to break through the shackles and glimpse the True Person realm."
As soon as these words came out, the two black-robed men behind Zhu Wanyin trembled, and then bowed and said in unison:
"Congratulations, Xuanjun Wanyin!"
At this point, they finally understood why the aloof Zhu Wanyin was so interested in a tiny ascender. It turned out that he had already sensed the opportunity for a breakthrough!
The shackles of their cultivators are sometimes so mysterious. Some people may break through by visiting a brothel, some need to cultivate hard for three hundred years, and some need to run naked, but regardless, such people are all geniuses in cultivation.
But undeniably, this kind of opportunity is hard to come by and is what all cultivators dream of.
"Tell the people of the Dark Tower to increase the rewards and make the matter as big as possible!"
"I, Zhu Wanyin, will definitely break through the Xuanzhe realm here and step into the True Person Dao!!"
"Hee hee hee, Jie jie jie!!!"
Zhu Wanyin burst into a strange laugh at the end, and the entire secret room was filled with his laughter.
On this side, Ding Yi had an idea in his mind after reading the task information in the tavern.
At this moment, what he needed most was not to find the mastermind behind the scenes, but to solve the defect that his soul's defense was too weak.
And the solution is naturally very simple.
The first method is to find a divine ability that strengthens the soul, and then use the Divine Illumination Method to directly push this method to Minor Accomplishment or Great Accomplishment.
The second method is to use his refining method to refine another immortal artifact that can defend against soul attacks.
These two methods have their own advantages and disadvantages, but Ding Yi chose the latter after weighing them.
After all, the former requires at least an existing cultivation method to be used as a strengthening material, but with his current identity, trying to obtain this kind of cultivation method will definitely arouse the suspicion of the Blood Tower, especially after he met that perverted man.
And the second method is much better.
He is now a pharmacist and can use the identity of a pharmacist to obtain a large number of materials.
Even if these materials are strange, the people of the Blood Tower will not say anything, after all, such an evil thing as the Ascension Paste can use anything without being surprising.
Thinking of this, Ding Yi put away the leaflet and then slowly walked out of the tavern.
Soon, Chen Hua, the newly appointed manager of the Blood Tower, received a box of Ascension Paste and a long list of materials.
When Chen Hua first saw the materials, he thought Ding Yi was joking with him, after all, each of the materials on it was a priceless treasure, and one of them was a Buddhist relic. If this thing was known by those monks in the Immortal Alliance, they would have chased after them and destroyed this place.
"Damn! Is this new pharmacist crazy!?"
"Is he taking my place as a charity hall!?"
"Just based on this blood-inducing paste that can increase the medicinal effect by 10%? Damn... huh? It smells so good...."
When Chen Hua cursed, he opened the box of Ascension Paste and found a faint fragrance wafting out.
"There's no fishy smell at all, just a strong herbal smell, this... is it a new model?"
Chen Hua's eyes seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes suddenly widened.
