In the small cave, their conversation did not escape Zhongli Tingzhou's ears. Knowing that Yuanran might be in danger, he stood beside the stone bed, but was as motionless as a rock.
On the stone bed was Gao Han, who had successfully refined the Solar Fire and was concentrating on refining a weapon.
The blazing fire of refining weapons, since it refined the Sun's Fire, has taken on a strange deep red color, too thick to look like flames. If the flames had not released an even hotter temperature, no one would have thought that this was also a kind of flame.
"There seems to be something happening outside, don't you want to go take a look?" Gao Han actually still paid some attention to it. He also heard it, but not in such detail.
"He won't die." Zhongli Tingzhou turned a deaf ear to him, as if he didn't care about Yuanran's life or death.
"I can't concentrate." Gao Han didn't say much, just this one sentence.
Zhongli Tingzhou suddenly cursed, "Why don't you just stay in the cave and practice instead of going out? What a bunch of useless guys."
"No matter how useless they are, they are still our fellow disciples. Since you have joined the sect, you should change your mindset. If you can't change it, don't say it out loud. Just keep it in your heart." Gao Han said lightly.
"Refine your magic weapon well." Zhongli Tingzhou turned around with a gloomy face and walked out of the cave.
At the entrance of the cave, everyone was still hesitating whether to go in and greet the two uncle-masters, and who to send in to greet them, when suddenly they saw a figure appear at the entrance of the cave.
"Great-grandmaster..." Brother Zhao was about to go forward, but suddenly he caught a glimpse of Great-grandmaster Zhongli's ugly face and involuntarily held back the rest of his words.
Uncle Master Zhongli suddenly got angry. Could it be because they were talking too loudly outside and disturbed him? In a sense, he guessed at least 80% right.
"Tian Yijun, lead the way, and the rest of you stay here to guard. Your great-grandmaster is practicing in seclusion in there. If anyone dares to go in and disturb him, I will chop off his head. Do you understand?" Zhongli Tingzhou glanced at the six people present with a sinister look.
Six heads nodded in unison. They had to understand, even if they didn't understand, that Great-Master Zhongli's expression was too terrifying.
After saying that, Zhongli Tingzhou grabbed Tian Yijun by the collar before he could react, and instantly disappeared from the spot with him.
As soon as he left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and the air became much fresher.
In the small cave, Gao Han heard the noise and knew that Zhongli Tingzhou had passed away, so he focused all his attention on the knife in front of him.
The Sun Tree belongs to the element of fire, and according to some books it is also a very difficult material to refine. However, this time because he refined the Sun Fire and used the rising temperature of the flame, it did not take 49 days to refine a branch of the Sun Tree as recorded in the books.
Gao Han only took half a day, and he used the remaining half a day to refine other materials, and finally melted them into a ball of dry and hard material.
While he was refining the weapon, everyone who was guarding the cave following Zhongli Tingzhou's instructions felt the temperature in the cave rising.
However, this time was different from before, the temperature was not that high, and although it was hot, it was not hot enough to make them sweat profusely.
Chang Xiaoxiao couldn't sit still, and after a while she couldn't help herself, "I want to go outside and take a look."
"It's better not to wander around." Senior Brother Chen also wanted to go out and take a look, but he didn't dare to disobey his uncle's words.
"I'll just stand at the entrance of the cave and take a look." Chang Xiaoxiao said in a low voice.
"Okay, remember not to walk around, otherwise if you encounter danger, we may not be able to rescue you immediately." Senior Brother Chen reminded.
"I understand." Chang Xiaoxiao nodded. He didn't act like a senior apprentice at all. It was precisely because they were almost the same age that everyone always forgot that they were older than them.
Brother Zhao saw him jumping out, thought for a moment and said, "Xiaosheng, you'd better follow him out to avoid any trouble."
"That's fine." Senior Brother Chen responded, then stood up and followed Chang Xiaoxiao's footprints out.
Just when Zhongli Tingzhou took Tian Yijun away.
"Are you sure?" In the dark corner, a pair of eyes with a cold glow appeared vaguely.
A demon stood in front of him. "It's absolutely true. I saw it with my own eyes. There's no way I'm wrong."
"If this is true, then God is helping us. Now is the best time for us to take action. We can't delay any longer." The demon whose body was half illuminated by the sunlight was Hope. After a period of dormancy, his injuries were almost healed.
He couldn't wait to find another opportunity to prove himself. If there was a next time, he would definitely not rush up to deal with the Nascent Soul monster like he did before, and he wouldn't feel so frustrated afterwards.
"Could this be a strategy to lure the tiger away from the mountain?" another young demon said worriedly.
"It's unlikely. They can't possibly know where we are hiding." It was Kairos who spoke. In the darkness, his powerful aura could not be ignored. Although he had been defeated by Gao Han before, he was still the most powerful among the demons. "Let's do it. We don't have much time. If we hesitate any longer, the others will be back. We won't have a chance to attack again." Hope said to Kairos anxiously.
"I agree with Hope. We don't have much time left in the secret realm. If we lose this opportunity, we won't know when we can strike again, unless we dare to rob and kill them at the entrance."
"Why, with more than a dozen of you, are you still hesitating for so long to deal with a few people? Kairos, you have already made a breakthrough, are you still afraid of a mid-stage Jindan?"
Just then, a voice suddenly sounded.
The sound did not come from anyone present, and Hope's aura exploded instantly.
"Who is it?"
The others were also like frightened birds. There was someone lurking near them, but they didn't even notice!
The man came out from behind a big tree.
"It's a human!" Hope was about to attack the other party the next second, but was suddenly held down by Kairos. The others were also briefly shocked by Kairos' pressure.
"Calm down, he is no longer our enemy." Kairos seemed to have expected this and was calmer than anyone else.
"Kailos, he is a genius of mankind, how could he not be our enemy?" Hope said in disbelief. What was Kairos suddenly thinking? Was he planning to cooperate with the genius of mankind?
"Hope, take another closer look at him." Kairos said in a deep voice.
Hope realized at this time that the other party had not revealed the enemy. He listened to Kairos' words and observed the other party carefully for a few times. Suddenly, his pupils shrank, "He is..."
"Yes, he is Monroe. I was just giving it a try that day, but I didn't expect it to be successful." Kailos showed a frivolous smile. This was the best good news after entering the secret realm.
"So that's how it is. You successfully assimilated this human genius?" Hope looked at him, who had the face of Liang Muheng but exuded a demonic aura.
"I guess so. This human genius has a strong will. If he hadn't been seriously injured, I really wouldn't be able to assimilate him so easily. If you want to deal with the human in the cave, I have a plan." Monroe said grimly.
"What's the plan?"
"Those humans would never think that this body is mine, Monroe. I can go in first and make sure it's not a trap, then you can attack." Monroe looked at Kairos, "You are now at the Grand Commander level, so it should be no problem for you to deal with Gao Han, right?"
"Of course!" Kailos said proudly. This injury could be considered a blessing in disguise. However, he was on the verge of a breakthrough anyway, so it was natural for him to break through while recuperating.
"Then let him go to you. As for the rest of you, let's attack together and try to end this quickly. What do you think?" Monroe added, "If this is not a trap, I will let you know with laughter."
"Can."
After the two parties reached an agreement, Monroe restrained his breath, left this place, crossed the small hill in front, and came to the cave where Gao Han was.
"Who?" Senior Brother Chen, who was accompanying Chang Xiaoxiao outside, suddenly noticed some movement. He looked over vigilantly and saw a familiar face rushing into his sight.
"I'm Liang Muheng from Qixing Valley. I'm being chased by several monsters. Let's go quickly. The monsters are coming." Monroe deliberately made his face pale.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud rumbling sound behind him.
Senior Brother Chen sensed the breath of several monsters and his face changed. He immediately pulled Chang Xiaoxiao back to the cave. When he heard Monroe's footsteps following them, he was about to let the other party go, but he suddenly passed them and rushed into the cave.
"So there's a cave here." Monroe said hypocritically.
It was too late for Senior Brother Chen to stop him, so he could only rush into the cave behind him.
Senior Brother Zhao and others were guarding the cave. When they saw Liang Muheng rushing in, they were startled and were about to draw their swords when they saw Senior Brother Chen behind them. They thought he was the one who let him in.
Senior Brother Zhao saw that he looked unhappy and guessed that there must be other reasons. Chen Xiaosheng was not the kind of person who didn't know the seriousness of the matter. It wasn't until he heard the roars of several monsters outside that he knew why. However, he still sent a voice message to Chen Xiaosheng, "What's going on?"
Senior Brother Chen said briefly, "I didn't have time to stop him. Just be careful and don't let him get close to the cave."
Monroe was not stupid. As soon as they noticed something unusual in their movements, he discovered the small cave inside. He felt that the temperature inside the cave was much higher than outside, and his eyes flashed.
This situation doesn't seem like cultivation, but more like refining equipment. Only by refining equipment can the temperature of the air rise. In this way, the opponent is not only unable to move, but also unable to use weapons.
"Why are there only a few of you here? Yuanran isn't following you?" Monroe asked hypocritically.
"Yuan Ran is nearby. He has already broken through to the Nascent Soul stage." Senior Brother Zhao said calmly.
Monroe didn't care about the threat in his words. The more the other party said so, the more certain he was that his guess was correct. He suddenly laughed out loud, and his laughter was obviously deliberately amplified several times.
"What are you doing?" Senior Brother Chen and Senior Brother Zhao immediately stared at him vigilantly.
Monroe narrowed his eyes and said, "Nothing, I'm just happy for Yuan Ran. He really did break through. There should be many people who break through this time."
Would Liang Muheng be happy for Yuan Ran? Unless it rained red.
