Mortal: Fight monsters and upgrade, I will enjoy immortality!

"Hahaha, okay! Junior brother, just sit back and wait to collect the benefits. Those old guys will definitely send you gifts by then!" Old monster Linghu smiled happily.

Huang Maple Valley has not produced a Nascent Soul cultivator for hundreds of years, and now it is finally time to feel proud.

"Haha." Ye Ming smiled. There is nothing good that can be given to others as a gift.

Besides, Ye Ming killed so many Nascent Soul cultivators and got a huge amount of various treasures from their storage bags, so how could he value the gifts.

But he didn't show anything unusual, so he couldn't just spoil people's interest!

Next, the two of them continued to chat about their respective experiences. Old Monster Linghu had lived for more than a thousand years and had seen and heard countless things. He could talk for days and nights with just a few talking points.

Ye Ming, on the other hand, briefly talked about his own experience, cutting out half of the things he encountered, including the names of specific places and people. If you really can't get around it, you just blur it out with vague words. Now is the time for people like Old Monster Linghu to win over Ye Ming, so of course they won't get to the bottom of such trivial matters.

After a while of chatting, the two sides started to communicate about cultivation issues.

Old Monster Linghu is truly worthy of being an old monster who has stayed in the middle stage of Nascent Soul for hundreds of years. Not only is he very knowledgeable, but he also views problems from a high level and is extremely penetrating. He can often make a sudden enlightenment in just a few words.

After some exchanges, Ye Ming felt that he had gained a lot. After being a lone ranger for so many years, this was the first time that Ye Ming had such an in-depth communication with someone about cultivation issues.

Although the few alchemy monks who were listening below did not have enough cultivation, they all felt that they had gained something after listening to higher-level cultivation and comparing it with what they had learned.

The exchange continued until the next day, before Ye Ming left the meeting hall with some unfinished thoughts and went to find a place to open a cave on his own.

Old monster Linghu personally sent Ye Ming out of the hall, the smile on his face never stopped, and he was extremely enthusiastic!

After returning, he waved his hand and ordered the following people:

"You should all leave as well. Junior Brother's Nascent Soul Celebration will be held in three months, so we are ready! Be sure to notify every sect or family we have made friends with."

"Yes, Uncle Master!" Lei Wanhe and others exited the hall with the same excitement.

Old Monster Linghu slowly calmed down, walked to the end of the hall, looked at the wall in front of him with his hands behind his back, and became silent.

There is a portrait hanging there. It depicts a certain man with an immortal demeanor. His face is a little blurry and his appearance cannot be clearly seen.

For a long time, Old Monster Linghu murmured in a low voice with relief: "I have supported the sect alone for hundreds of years, and finally let me wait before my life span is exhausted..."

After Ye Ming left the meeting hall, he flew around the mountains and found that the spiritual energy of the remaining uninhabited mountains was not very good. He simply chose a mountain with a height of several hundred feet and a relatively beautiful scenery as the location of his cave.

For Ye Ming, who is currently cultivating, opening a cave is easy. In less than half an hour, a fully functional cave was formed.

Then, he used the terrain to set up several magic circles around the mountain. After a thick white mist poured out, it completely covered the entire mountain.

Back in the alchemy room of the cave, Ye Ming flicked his sleeves and robes, and dozens of exquisite jade boxes appeared silently on the ground. What's inside is the demon elixir obtained from killing the transformed demon beasts over the years!

I never had time to deal with them before, but now I can refine them into pills first.

Then he turned his palm over, and an alchemy furnace with three legs and two ears appeared in his palm.

Throw it into the air, then open your mouth and spit out a thin stream of green and red flames...

……

Two days later, Ye Ming played a magic formula, and the furnace lid made a soft "bang" sound and rose into the sky. Immediately afterwards, twenty or so blue spiritual lights shot out from the furnace, and it looked like something was faintly wrapped inside.

Ye Ming stretched out his hand and grabbed it, and a huge red light hand appeared out of thin air. He reached down like lightning and caught the aura in his palm.

The light hand flew back to Ye Ming. He raised his arm and the light from the light hand dispersed, revealing pill pills the size of little fingers. If you look carefully, you can see that there are twenty pills in total. The surface is covered with a layer of light blue shimmer, exuding amazing spiritual energy. A strong medicinal fragrance hits the tip of your nose, and you feel refreshed after just one sip. Cool.

Ye Ming put away these pills with satisfaction, then started to warm up the pill furnace and took out another demon pill...

In the next period of time, Ye Ming refined each demon pill into batches of pills to enhance the cultivation of the Nascent Soul.

Every time he refined it, he was careful and strived for perfection, fearing that the refining would fail and waste this extremely precious eighth- and ninth-level demon elixir.

Thanks to the previous sharp increase in the level of alchemy and the rich experience he had accumulated, these demon elixirs were basically successfully refined, with only one failure.

However, he did not refine all the demon pills into elixirs, but kept a few as backup.

On this day, after Ye Ming finished refining the alchemy, as soon as he walked out of the alchemy room, he saw an unexpected person coming outside the cave.

This man has delicate and beautiful facial features and a plump figure, but he has a cold and cold look that prevents strangers from entering. Who else could it be if it wasn't Chen Qiaoqian!

Chen Qiaoqian has been practicing hard over the years, but due to qualifications and opportunities, she has never been able to break through the bottleneck of elixir formation and has been stuck in the false elixir stage for many years.

A few days ago, she once again ended a round of retreat in depression. As soon as she came out of seclusion, she heard the news about Ye Ming that was spreading wildly within the sect, saying that Patriarch Ye had condensed his Nascent Soul and returned to the sect, and that there would be hope for the Yellow Maple Valley in the future. This shocked her.

"Ye Ming, isn't he the same person back then?" The dusty past was brought back to mind, and Chen Qiaoqian became uneasy. After several days of ideological struggle in his mind, he finally couldn't help but want to find out what happened, so he came to the outside of Ye Mingdong Mansion alone.

Although Ye Ming opened the cave without reporting it to anyone, he is now the focus of the entire Yellow Maple Valley, and everyone is paying attention to his every move outside. Therefore, the location of his cave has been spread out for a long time, and it only takes a little inquiry from someone to find out.

However, a whole day had passed since Chen Qiaoqian sent out the transmission notes, and there was still no movement in the cave.

"Does this person not want to see me?"

Just when Chen Qiaoqian was hesitant and wondering whether to leave, the thick fog in front of her rolled up, revealing a passage about ten feet wide.

"Come in!" A familiar voice came to her ears.

Chen Qiaoqian took a deep breath and walked into the passage with anxiety.

After a while, she came to a simple living room. Standing next to the central chair was a handsome young man in white, looking at her with a smile.

"Junior Sister Chen, long time no see!"

"Bye, meet the master, I don't dare to trouble the master to address him like this." Chen Qiaoqian was stunned by Ye Ming's statement, and then said this.

But it was this call that made her relax from her nervous mood.

"It doesn't matter. You are one of the few acquaintances I have in Yellow Maple Valley. You don't need to be so restrained."

"Yes, Master!"

After Ye Ming corrected the title again, he asked her to sit down and asked with interest:

"I left the country of Yue for special reasons back then. I don't know what happened after the war and the situation of your acquaintances over the years. Can you tell me about it?"

"Of course, not long after we met at the trading ground, Spirit Beast Mountain suddenly betrayed the Yue Kingdom, colluded with the Demonic Way, and took advantage of the opportunity of being on duty to allow a large number of Demonic Way troops to enter the coalition camp..."

Chen Qiaoqian fell into memories and slowly told the story.

"Everything in the world is unpredictable, and the way of heaven is ruthless! By the way, junior sister, at your age, you should have another chance to attack the core formation. I wonder if you are prepared?" After Ye Ming sighed, he changed the subject and asked about Chen Qiaoqian's cultivation situation. .

Chen Qiaoqian smiled bitterly: "I have attacked twice before, and have used many auxiliary pill-forming objects, some of which are no longer useful to me. I have collected a few more over the years, and plan to make the final move in the near future. Whether it will succeed or not depends on God's will. ."

Seeing her lack of confidence, Ye Ming thought for a while and said, "If you don't mind, I can help you check if there is anything wrong with your body."

After such a long period of communication, Chen Qiaoqian has felt that Ye Ming does not regard her as a junior, and seems to still have the same attitude as before, so she is no longer afraid.

Hearing what Ye Ming said, she directly stretched out her wrist and handed it to Ye Ming.

Ye Ming stretched out two fingers and pressed it against it. After inputting a burst of mana into her body, he carefully checked and combed it.

After a while, Ye Ming put down his hand and said softly: "It's not a big problem, my body is slightly injured. I'll give you some pills. You can go back and nurse yourself back. It shouldn't take long for you to recover."

With that said, Ye Ming took out three jade bottles and handed them to Chen Qiaoqian, and then briefly introduced:

"One of the elixirs in the bottle is to regulate the body, and the other two are dust-falling elixirs and golden elixirs that help break through the elixir bottleneck. You probably haven't used these before, so give them a try."

"Thank you, Master!" Chen Qiaoqian nodded in thanks.

After taking the three jade bottles, Chen Qiaoqian raised her head, looked bravely at Ye Ming for a moment, and asked with a trembling voice:

"Master, did you go out about two months before the Blood Trial?"

This question has troubled her for more than a hundred years. Now that she asked it, her heart felt as relieved as a big stone fell to the ground.

Ye Ming's expression remained unchanged, he stared at the woman for a long time before he said leisurely: "Why do you ask like this?"

Chen Qiaoqian tried hard to see something on Ye Ming's face, and said lightly:

"In search of a savior!"

"Isn't this person Han Li?"

"Besides him, there is another person."

"Oh? What do you say?"

Hearing what Ye Ming said, Chen Qiaoqian smiled like ice and snow melting, and said firmly: "Originally, I only had a sixty-seven percent guess, but now I am ninety-nine percent sure who my other savior is!"

Ye Ming said nothing and looked at her quietly.
