Hell Emperor

Chapter 73 Li Feimo-Apology
Outside the dark purple soul-fixing shield, the lightning strikes were non-stop.

The tireless Kui Niu kicked the barrier again and again, with no intention of leaving. It seemed that he would never give up until the barrier was breached.

The roaring sound in his ears also made Ye Jie quite helpless, so he had no choice but to say to Xia Wei:

"Now Shen Qingge is seriously injured and is recuperating. In a few months, she may not be able to recover at all. Moreover, even in her prime, she was only at the peak level of the fourth level. She is no match for Kui Niu. The realm is at the mid-fifth level... Unless Kui Niu gets tired of it and chooses to leave, otherwise, you will have to stay in this soul-fixing shield for a long time."

Xia Wei's expression darkened and she worried: "Now that I am trapped in this soul-fixing shield, how can I stop the general who patrols the river?"

Ye Jie patted her shoulder: "Don't worry, I will find a way to find the whereabouts of the Monkey King, and try my best to convince the general who patrols the river. You can stay here and practice peacefully. Besides, with your current strength, even if you really and If the general who patrols the river gets into a fight, I'm afraid he won't be his opponent."

Hearing this, Xia Wei nodded slightly, but the sad look on her pretty face could not be removed no matter what.

Ye Jie took the melon seed head and put it in front of Xia Wei: "The melon seeds will stay here to supervise you to practice the exercises. If you have any questions you don't understand, you can ask her."

Li Feimo glanced at Guazitou and said apologetically: "Her body carried my Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, and now only her head is left. Is there any problem?"

Guazi gritted his teeth: "Don't worry, as long as the head is still there, the body will grow back on its own."

After confirming that Guazi was fine, Li Feimo breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Xia Wei: "Your skills are really interesting. They can threaten me, so they are of some value. Since we are all trapped here, it is difficult to escape. , why not, let’s exchange skills?”

Xia Wei was stunned for a moment, shook her head and said: "The skills on my body were all taught to me by my master. Without his consent, I cannot exchange them with you."

"What did you say?" Li Feimo's eyes widened, his chest heaved, and he couldn't believe what he heard, "I, the founder of the Xuannv Sect, didn't say anything, so what's so precious about your skills in a remote place? of?"

Ye Jie coughed dryly and took the initiative to speak: "Girl Moth is willing to exchange skills, which is naturally a dream. But I once heard someone mention that the rules of the immortal sect in Luzhou, Beiju are very strict, and the sect's skills are never easy. If it is spread to outsiders, once they are found to have secretly learned the skills of other sects, or leaked the secrets of the sect, they will be deprived of their cultivation and expelled from the immortal sect, or they will be brutally imprisoned, or directly executed..."

Li Feimo snorted and said: "You are talking about old antiques from other immortal sects. It is true that there are people like that, and there are quite a lot of them, but my master is not like that. My master is a Xuan The female descendant advocates abandoning sectarian opinions and absorbing the best of hundreds of schools of thought. She brought me here to practice in the hope that I would exchange more techniques with others, absorb the essence of techniques from other continents, and then achieve my own achievements."

After listening to what Li Feimo said, Ye Jie couldn't help but think of that woman as cold as ice and snow. Unexpectedly, Shen Qingge had such an open-minded attitude when it came to the practice, and praised:

"If you want to continue to improve your skills, you must learn from each other's strengths to bring forth the new. If you just stick to your old ways, you will only be eliminated. It seems that Moth Girl has a very wise master."

Li Feimo raised his lips slightly, glanced at the crowd, and said: "However, ordinary skills are not suitable for me. At least the skills that can make me feel threatened are necessary for exchange."

Ye Jie nodded and said to Xia Wei: "Exchange skills with her, Xiaowei, your talent is amazing, any skill from any sect can work wonders in your hands, learn more skills, Nothing but good for you.”

Hearing this, Xia Wei changed her mind and looked at Li Feimo and said: "What skills do you want to exchange with me? I don't want sword skills. My sword was damaged by you. It is a ninth-grade spiritual weapon. !”

Hearing the complaints in Xia Wei's words, Li Feimo puffed his lips:
"Well, I was indeed wrong in this matter...Master taught me that I have to admit my mistakes. In this case, I will trade the Nether Spirit Divine Art with you. As long as you can practice the Nether Spirit Divine Art, you Don’t worry if you don’t have weapons, just a ninth-grade spiritual weapon is nothing at all.”

"Netherworld Divine Art?" The person who spoke before Xia Wei was the melon seed head on the ground.

After hearing the name of the Nether Spirit Divine Art, Guazi's pupils shrank and he screamed in disbelief: "You are talking about the heaven-level top-grade technique created by Ming Ji, the master of the Nether Spirit Palace, the Nether Spirit Divine Art? You want it? Exchange this skill with her?"

Li Feimo raised his chin and confirmed his statement: "Xia Wei, what do you think? I, Li Feimo, am not an overbearing and unreasonable person. I wrongly blamed you before and caused you to be trapped in I am trapped in the soul-fixing shield, and I don’t know how long it will take to get out of the trap, so this book of the Nether Spirit Divine Art can be regarded as an apology.”

Hearing what Li Feimo said, Ye Jie was excited. In terms of the value of the skills, even if Xia Wei used all the skills in her body, the value would still be far less than one percent of the top-grade skills in the heavenly realm.

Li Feimo was willing to use the Nether Spirit Art in exchange out of apology in his heart, hoping to compensate Xia Wei for being implicated by her and trapped here.

Xia Wei didn't answer, just looked at Ye Jie. Following Xia Wei's gaze, Li Feimo also turned his attention to Ye Jie.

"The most powerful technique that a mortal can practice is this heaven-level top-level technique. It's rare for Moth Girl to have such thoughts. As Xia Wei's master, I agreed on her behalf." Ye Jie took a deep breath, and so on. It's a good thing, so how can there be any reason not to agree?

Ye Jie reached into his arms, took out the golden-covered Canglong Jin, exchanged it for a roll of bamboo slips belonging to Li Feimo, and handed the bamboo tube to the melon seed head on the ground, and said to Xia Wei: "During my absence, the melon seed will The contents on the bamboo slips are read to you."

Xia Wei nodded slightly, but Li Feimo on the side opened his mouth slightly: "Wait, why do you let others read it? Could it be that you are illiterate?"

Ye Jie coughed dryly and explained: "Xiaowei has worked very hard to learn to read. At least now...she can already write her own name."

Li Feimo laughed loudly: "You have the realm of the early stage of the third level, but you can't read at all? This is the first time I have seen this situation. Do you have a sixth-level talent: illiterate, or an eighth-level talent: recklessness and no plan? ?”

Xia Wei pouted, and Ye Jie could only say: "Actually, it has only been a month since Xiaowei embarked on the path of spiritual practice. Before that, she was just an ordinary farm girl who had never learned to read."

The laughter in Li Feimo's mouth suddenly stopped, as if an invisible hand was strangling her throat. Her expression instantly froze, her face turned red, and she said in disbelief: "This is impossible! I was favored by Master right after I was born, and became a descendant of the Xuannv Sect. Over the years, I have not dared to relax my practice for a moment, and I have accepted all kinds of teachings. The master’s teachings have given me the strength I have now. You have only been practicing for a month and you can fight with me?”

Li Feimo looked Xia Wei up and down a few times, with a hint of suspicion in his bright eyes: "Did you achieve your level by relying on spiritual pills? There are many wealthy disciples in other immortal sects who are lazy in their practice. The realm is all based on the hard accumulation of spiritual pills, and the strength is very illusory. I am not afraid of fighting such people even if they have fourth-level strength. But I see that your realm is stable and your foundation is strong. There is no sign of taking spiritual pills at all... Could it be that, Are you lying to me?"

Ye Jie waved his hand: "Why are you lying to me? Is there any benefit? Xiaowei is the reincarnation of an immortal, and this is the embodiment of her potential."

"What's so great about the reincarnation of an immortal? I am also the reincarnation of an immortal, and my master is also the reincarnation of an immortal. Who was not an immortal in his previous life?" Li Feimo snorted.

Ye Jie coughed dryly. The reincarnation of the immortal spoke with firmness, and he was confident no matter what he did.

After finally getting rid of Li Feimo's entanglement, and telling Xia Wei to stay here and practice her skills peacefully, Ye Jie took out the Shuodi Stone and returned to the underworld.

Back in the basement of the wine country, Nan Linghe was writing and drawing in front of a long table. Hua Xiaomei stood behind her, showing a heartbroken look: "Wrong! The soul talisman is not drawn like this. The talisman of two hundred yin virtues Materials were wasted again…”

Hearing this, Ye Jie couldn't help but ask: "What are you doing? Don't waste your virtue. Draw on the sand table first to get familiar with it, and then draw on the yellow paper."

Seeing Ye Jie return, Hua Xiaomei held her forehead and sighed: "Of course I know the method that Brother Jie said, and I have tried it. I saw that Nan Linghe's paintings on the sand table were decent, so I let her start. When she tried using real talisman materials, she never thought that as soon as she replaced it with yellow paper, her drawings would become crooked and completely different from before."

Listening to Hua Xiaomei's complaints, Nan Linghe threw down his paintbrush and ran to Ye Jie aggrievedly. He clenched the corners of his clothes with both hands, and his crystal eyes were about to shed tears: "Brother Jie, I... I was wrong. , I shouldn’t have wasted your virtues. Your virtues are obviously so precious, but I wasted them all, ugh..."

Ye Jie patted her back and comforted her softly: "Don't blame yourself. Learning to make talismans is a matter that requires a lot of morals. Most ghosts can't afford it, and failure is inevitable. "

"But...but..."

Seeing Nan Linghe lowering his head with a sad look on his face, looking pitiful and about to cry, Ye Jie stretched out his hand and hugged her into his arms: "There's nothing wrong with me. I can become the best ghost and get those evil virtues." , it’s all thanks to you, as long as I still have some Yin De, you don’t have to worry about Yin De.”

Nan Linghe's depressed mood was gradually relieved. She stood up on tiptoes and leaned her head in front of Ye Jie. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, revealing a subtle and sweet smile. Her empty heart was filled with silent emotion.

After a while, she reluctantly let go of Ye Jie. She just held Ye Jie's hand, but she refused to let go.

Hua Xiaomei said at this time: "By the way, Brother Jie, aren't you going to Tianxuan Palace? The master of Guangwang Palace has sent ghost messengers to urge you. I heard that a grand meeting of talismans is being held over there, and the masters of talisman making are gathered together. , preparing to compete in the art of making talismans, we also plan to go shopping and see if we can find any profound books on talismans."

Ye Jie showed an interested look: "Whenever the talisman festival is held, it means that a large number of talismans flow into the market. At this time, if you go to Tianxuan Palace, you can buy talismans that are not usually common at a lower price."

Hua Xiaomei also sighed with emotion: "A junior Talisman Maker like me who has just started can greatly improve his Talisman Making Level just by observing the master's skills on the spot... Unfortunately, the admission fee is too high. It costs 30,000 Yin De, which is simply not something that ordinary ghost servants can afford. However, as the best ghost servant in Brother Jie Guangwang Palace, he can receive an invitation and enter for free. Brother brought us in."

Ye Jie smiled faintly. Being the best ghost master does have this advantage, and asked her: "I don't know much about the way to make talismans. Are you a junior talisman maker? What level is that?"

"It's probably like making a talisman ten times and it will be successful three times." Hua Xiaomei explained.

Nan Linghe leaned over curiously: "So it turns out that when Sister Mei makes a spiritual talisman, it is not guaranteed to be successful?"

Hua Xiaomei spread her hands helplessly: "The market price of the amulet is 300 yin virtues, and the production materials only cost 200 yin virtues. If I could make the amulet every time, I would have stopped taking ghost missions, and I would have made a fortune just selling the amulets."

Seeing Nan Linghe's expression that seemed to understand, Hua Xiaomei spoke again: "Junior Talisman Makers, there is no way to break even just by making magic talismans. Not to mention junior Talisman Makers, even intermediate Talisman Makers It’s difficult to be a master, only a high-level talisman maker can steadily earn a large amount of yin virtue by making talismans.”

After a pause, Hua Xiaomei sighed again: "Senior Talisman Maker is not achieved overnight. Every senior Talisman Maker has experienced thousands of failed Talisman Makings and summed up experience from each failure. , only then can you master the unique know-how of the talisman. It is all piled up by Yin De. It can be said that the birth of every high-level Talisman Maker costs at least millions of Yin De."

Nan Linghe covered her mouth in surprise. She deeply understood the value of Yin De: "Ah... it's so expensive, so I'd better not continue practicing making talismans..."

Ye Jie patted her head and comforted her: "Isn't it too early to give up now? With your talent, you might really be able to shine in the art of making talismans. You don't have to worry about your moral character. All these are taken care of." Give it to me. When you become a senior Talisman Maker, you will have as much virtue as you need."

Encouraged by Ye Jie, Nan Linghe couldn't hide his joy. He raised his little fist and said, "I want to become a senior talisman maker and make fortune by making talismans!"

Hua Xiaomei's head was full of black lines: "Most Talisman Makers at this level will look down on the lowest level of Talisman such as Soul Talisman, and instead choose to make more powerful and valuable high-level Talisman."

Ye Jie smiled, but heard a noise from outside the basement, the stone door opened, and the maids in the wine country were waiting eagerly.

Ye Jie welcomed the maids in and saw that everyone was here. Except for Guazitou who was still in the soul-fixing shield and teaching Xia Wei the skills, the other maids were gathered here. He looked at Nan Linghe with hopeful eyes: " Now, it’s up to you to find the whereabouts of the Monkey King, save Aunt Meng’s reincarnation, and save countless babies in this world.”

"Yeah!" Nan Linghe nodded vigorously.
