Mu Chen lay on his bed, deep in thought. He pondered over the fact that he had transmigrated into a character who, for the sake of a white lotus, broke off an engagement, spent fortunes, and fierce...
Chapter 290
When Muchen and Ye Shi arrived at the alchemy shop, it was already closed.
"You're back," the little tiger said calmly when he saw the three people come in.
"Golden Sun Pill, why is there one missing? Did anyone bring the eighth-level elixir?" Mu Chen asked.
"No," the little tiger said with a smug smile, and then said, "The elixir was replaced by me."
Mu Chen frowned and said, "What cheap stuff did you buy again? You made me a fool again."
The little tiger said meaningfully: "Little pretty boy master, you don't understand. In life, it is rare to be confused."
Mu Chen sneered and said, "Yes! Thank you so much for confusing me time and time again."
Little Tiger: “…………”
The little tiger looked at Mu Chen and Ye Shi, then changed the subject and asked, "Were you two struck by lightning again?"
Ye Shi nodded and said, "Yes! This time it's the pill tribulation." It's very easy to block this time. After being struck a few more times, he will get used to it. Maybe he can block the pill tribulation by himself.
"This is because you have committed too many sins in your daily life, so you are struck by lightning again and again. In order to avoid being struck by lightning all the time, you should be nicer to me, do good deeds, and accumulate blessings and virtues." The little tiger said earnestly.
Mu Chen sneered twice and said coldly: "Being nice to you is a good deed, but being nice to you is a sin."
Little Tiger: “…………”
The little tiger looked at Lie Xingtian curiously and said, "Brother, you were struck by lightning too."
Lie Xingtian nodded and said dryly, "Yes."
The little tiger looked at Lie Xingtian with sympathy and said, "Boy, stay away from these two guys. They are often struck by lightning. I'm afraid you will be implicated."
"It's okay." Lie Xingtian.
The little tiger blinked his eyes and said, "Oh, brother, you have masochism! You two-legged monsters! The truth is hard to understand."
Lie Xingtian: “…………”
…………
The little tiger looked at Ye Shi with a piercing gaze and said, "Little White Face, I heard that you have set up an eighth-level formation?"
Ye Shi nodded and said, "Yeah! What's wrong?"
The little tiger shook his fat body and said, "It's nothing. I just found a good deed for you. Someone wanted to borrow your formation, and I agreed to it, pretty boy! Helping others is the essence of happiness. I found such a great deed for you to do. You must be very grateful to me."
Ye Shi frowned and said angrily, "You sold me out?"
The little tiger glared at Ye Shi disapprovingly and said, "How could I possibly sell you out? If I did, the pretty boy director would tear me apart! I only sold you your formation. After all, it won't break if I use it a couple more times."
Mu Chen narrowed his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. Before Ye Shi's formation was put into use, someone had already come to find him.
"What benefits did they give you that you are helping them so much?" Mu Chen asked sinisterly.
The tiger said in confusion, "Benefits? No! Helping others is the root of happiness. I am a kind-hearted person. How could a kind-hearted person accept benefits from others..."
"Enough! Tell the truth." Mu Chen said coldly.
"They found a fire spirit girl for me." The little tiger licked his lips and said with a dry laugh.
"Sister Fire Spirit, you're a pervert. You're so useless just because of a mere Fire Spirit sister. " Ye Shi said disdainfully.
The little tiger raised his chin and said, "What do you know? You don't understand the good of Sister Huo Ling at all. I won't argue with you."
Ye Shi said angrily, "Where's Sister Huo Ling?"
The little tiger patted his belly, and a look of confusion flashed across Ye Shi's face.
Mu Chen rolled his eyes and said through gritted teeth, "I gave it to you to eat again?"
The little tiger nodded and said, "Yes! It tastes really good."
Ye Shi said angrily, "You actually ate it, you actually ate it, you glutton."
The little tiger looked at Ye Shi with disdain and said, "Sister Fire Spirit tastes very good. Even if I gave it to you, you wouldn't be lucky enough to have it. You wouldn't understand the taste."
"I don't understand! But I do understand that every time this formation is activated, it consumes hundreds of high-quality Yuan Stones." Ye Shi said unhappily.
Little Tiger: “…………”
The tower spirit suddenly jumped out and said, "What? Hundreds of high-grade Yuanshi? You're a spendthrift tiger. Not only did you lose the Golden Sun Pill, you also lost the Yuanshi, you idiot."
The little tiger said unyieldingly, "Don't think I don't know that I've embezzled entire spiritual veins from you, and you still have the nerve to accuse me of being a spendthrift."
Ta Ling said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? I am the most honest and upright person, with clean hands..."
The little tiger snorted coldly and said, "Look at your stomach, you've vomited."
"Look at you, you're so fat that you can't walk." Ta Ling said unwillingly.
Mu Chen's face darkened as he shouted coldly, "That's enough. You two are the same, and you still have the nerve to argue."
"Who did you promise?" Ye Shi asked the little tiger.
"A man in red clothes with a mole at the corner of his eye. I asked him to come over tomorrow." said the little tiger.
Ye Shi blinked and said in distress, "Who is it?"
"It might be Zuyang. He also failed to advance once." Lie Xingtian said.
Ye Shi nodded and responded, "Oh, really?"
Mu Chen lowered his head. He was worried that no one would test the effect of the formation set up by Ye Shi. He didn't expect that someone would come to him so soon.
There should be many people in the secret realm who are interested in what he and Ye Shi are doing.
…………
"Should I take this mission?" Ye Shi turned his head and asked Mu Chen.
Mu Chen sighed softly and said, "Take it. The tiger has already eaten Sister Huo Ling. We can't ask him to spit it out."
"Okay, I'll take it." Ye Shi nodded.
The little tiger said excitedly, "Little White Face, I knew you were a good person. Don't worry, from now on, if there are other people around Little White Face's master, I will help you burn them to death."
Ye Shi felt relieved, but he still kept a straight face and said, "Don't talk nonsense."
The little tiger glanced at Ye Shi with disdain and said, "Tsk, I know you are very happy in your heart."
Ye Shi glared at the little tiger fiercely, his face flushed slightly.
"My dear little pretty boy." Tiger looked at Ye Shi in a flattering manner and called out.
Ye Shi suddenly became alert, "What are you doing?"
"In fact, I ate not one but two fire spirit girls." The little tiger said a little embarrassedly.
Seeing Ye Shi's eyes suddenly widen, the little tiger said shyly, "One is not enough."
Mu Chen's face darkened as he angrily asked, "So, you promised two people, not just one?"
"It doesn't matter if I drive one sheep or let two sheep go," the tiger said as a matter of course.
Ye Shi sighed softly and said, "Two, just two."
Tiger said excitedly, "Master Little Pretty Boy, I knew you were very reasonable and considerate. You really are a good person!"
Ye Shi looked at Tiger strangely and said, "Tiger, something's wrong with you! Are you hiding something?"
"Is there something wrong with me? What's wrong with me?" the tiger said disapprovingly.
Mu Chenli shouted, "What else did you do? Tell me quickly."
The tiger raised its paw disapprovingly and said, "It's no big deal. I just ate two Fire Spirit girls and three Fire Spirit boys."
Ye Shi: "…………How can you eat so much!"
Tiger: "...I have been starving for many years."
Mu Chen held his forehead with a headache and asked, "So, you actually promised five people to help them use the formation?"
Tiger nodded and said, "Yeah! It's just a formation, it's no big deal."
Mu Chen: “…………”
"Idiot, one high-grade Yuanshi costs several hundred, and five cost several thousand!" The tower spirit said angrily.
tiger:"…………"
"You are the strange fire! You are the real one! How can you just casually send someone away with the fire spirit?" Ye Shi said unhappily.
The tiger rolled his eyes and said, "If you hadn't imprisoned me for tens of thousands of years and starved me to death, I wouldn't be in this state!"
Ye Shi rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "It's not true that we detained you." Tens of thousands of years ago, he was not even born yet.
The tiger said disapprovingly, "It's all the same. It's you two-legged monsters who detained me."
Ye Shi: “…………”
"There are so many Nine-Star Martial Emperors in the secret realm?" Mu Chen frowned and muttered.
"There is a huge chasm between the Nine-Star Martial Emperor and the Dao Martial Sect. Many young geniuses have stopped at the Nine-Star Martial Emperor level. Many cultivators who failed to advance have hidden their identities and gone into hiding. Now that the secret realm is open, many more people have come in." Liexing Tiandao said.
Throughout history, there have been countless geniuses who failed to advance to the rank of Martial Sect. Not everyone has the luck of Muchen and Ye Shi.
Mu Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "Is that so! Tiger, call them all over and tell them that they have to bring their own Yuanshi for the promotion."
The little tiger blinked and said, "Okay."
Mu Chen lowered his head and thought to himself: Ye Shi's formation needs people to test it, and the inscriptions he researched also need people to test it. He was worried that there was no one to test it, but then, so many of them were delivered to his door all of a sudden.
…………
In a bamboo house not far from Mu's medicine shop.
"Grandfather, can the formation set up by Ye Shi really help us advance?" Yan Chengque asked somewhat uneasily.
"Didn't we all feel the formation while Mu Chen was refining the elixir? Even if we stand outside the formation, we can feel the power of the formation. If we enter the formation, you can imagine how great the effect will be." Zu Yang said lightly.
"I heard that the formation is an upgraded version of the Lingzong formation, an eighth-level formation, which Ye Shi specially prepared for Lie Xingtian." Mu Beifeng said.
"Lie Xingtian has failed three times. Ordinary means will not work at all. It is said that the Lingxin Pill refined by Muchen was also prepared for Lie Xingtian." Tang Fang said.
"With the help of eighth-level elixirs and eighth-level formations, it should be a sure thing for Lie Xingtian to be promoted to Martial Sect." Mu Beifeng said with some envy.
The few people present were originally the chosen ones of heaven, but they had all failed to advance. Once they failed to advance to Wuzong, the difficulty of advancing again would be several times higher than before. These people gradually faded away.
"I think what we should worry about now is not whether the formation will work, but whether Ye Shi is willing to help." Zu Yang sighed lightly.
"The tiger agreed to us." Tang Fang said. The tiger said that he was the boss of Muchen and Ye Shi, and they both listened to what he said. If he said to go east, Muchen and Ye Shi would not dare to say to go west.
"That tiger doesn't look serious at first glance, so his words are not very credible." Zu Yang said.
"Can we steal that formation?" Lu Yun asked.
Zu Yang said angrily, "You're crazy! That formation was set up by Bai Yanxing. It has Bai Yanxing's spiritual imprint in it. If you enter the formation without his consent and he senses you, he can kill you with a single thought. Moreover, to activate an eighth-level formation, you need the assistance of an eighth-level formation master."
Lu Yun smiled awkwardly and said, "I was just talking casually."
