Chapter 1000 Ancient Soul Jade
Mu Wuzhi's face was solemn as she explained in a low voice, "The Huitian Pill is a healing pill unique to our Qingfeng Valley. It can not only heal various serious injuries, but also prolong life.
But this is the Great Lord Pill, and the ingredients are scarce. After so many years, Grandpa's health is not as strong as it was in his prime, so there are not many left in the valley. The Mu family is obviously here to rob it."
Mu Chenfeng sneered, "The Mu family is only stronger than Qingfeng Valley, not weaker. For the sake of your disciples in the valley, Third Uncle, please think carefully before answering me."
Luo Li's eyes turned cold, and she was extremely disgusted with this behavior.
"Are we just going to let them threaten us like this? How long can this valley protection formation last?"
Mu Wuzhi frowned, and said worriedly, "Although this formation is powerful, it consumes a lot of energy if it's activated for a long time. If they continue to exert pressure, the spiritual energy in the formation will be exhausted in three days at most, and it won't be replenished for a while. By then..."
At this time, Mu Qingxuan, who had been silent the entire time, spoke up: "Mu Chenfeng, don't push me too far. Even if we really give you the Huitian Pill, will the Mu family be able to rest easy? I think you're here for more than just the pill."
Mu Chenfeng's expression changed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure and snorted coldly, "Don't make wild guesses. The Mu family is in imminent danger. If we had no other choice, we wouldn't have come to your Qingfeng Valley."
Luo Li's heart moved, and she noticed the hint in Mu Chenfeng's words, and concluded that there must be something hidden in this matter.
She took a step forward and said loudly, "If you're asking for medicine, you should act like one. You're being so brazen and blatant, what's the difference between you and robbers?"
Mu Chenfeng's gaze shot towards Luo Li like a knife. The moment he saw her face clearly, he shouted angrily, "Luo Li?! Why are you in Qingfeng Valley?!"
Luo Li narrowed her eyes. The Mu family sent people to Tianyuan Continent to take her mother away, but they didn't know that she had come to the Continent of Gods, so she must not let him know that she was Mu Wanqing's daughter.
She looked calm as she met Mu Chenfeng's angry glare and said calmly, "Why can't I stay in Qingfeng Valley? It's a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters, abundant spiritual energy, and even has some powerful alchemists like Mugu Master. But you, mobilizing such a large force, using the guise of seeking medicine to force me, aren't you afraid of being laughed at if it gets out?"
Mu Chenfeng gritted his teeth, a hint of suspicion flashing in his eyes: "I don't care who you are, I must take the Huitian Pill away today. If you dare to say anything more, don't blame me for being rude!"
Mu Wuzhi sneered, "What a boast! Do you think Qingfeng Valley is a place where you can come and go as you please?"
Seeing this, Mu Chenzhou stepped forward and protected Luo Li and Mu Wuzhi behind him, his spiritual energy surging around him: "Mu Chenfeng, if you dare to be rude to the people of Qingfeng Valley again, don't blame me for not considering the relationship between us!"
A cold light flashed in Mu Chenfeng's eyes, and suddenly a pitch-black token appeared in his hand. It was engraved with intricate patterns and faintly had blood flowing on it.
He sneered and said, "Uncle San, do you recognize this thing?"
Mu Zhengnian's pupils suddenly contracted, and his voice trembled slightly: "Soul Devouring Order?! The Mu family actually gave this to you?"
Mu Wuzhi looked at her grandfather in confusion: "What is the Soul Devouring Order?"
"This is a forbidden item passed down from the ancestors of the Mu family," Mu Qingxuan said in a deep voice, "It can forcibly extract the soul of others and refine it. The old ancestor set a rule that it cannot be used except in life-or-death situations."
Luo Li noticed keenly that when Mu Chenfeng took out the token, several Mu family disciples behind him unconsciously took half a step back, with fear flashing in their eyes.
"It seems you really have other intentions," Luo Li quietly gathered soul power on her fingertips. "If you were simply seeking medicine, why would you use such an evil object?"
Mu Chenfeng raised his lips in a strange arc, raised the Soul Devouring Order in his hand, and said arrogantly: "Since you have seen through it, there is no need to hide it. This time, the Resurrection Pill is only one of the reasons. The more important thing is..."
He paused, a fierce look flashing in his eyes, "The ancient soul jade hidden in Qingfeng Valley must be obtained by our Mu family!"
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
Luo Li frowned, "Ancient Soul Jade?"
Mu Wuzhi's expression changed even more. She whispered to Luo Li, "The Mu family once had two precious jades. One was made into the Soul Devouring Order, and the other was the Ancient Soul Jade. Back then, these two items were given to Grandpa and the Patriarch of the Mu family respectively. Why are they now eyeing the Ancient Soul Jade..."
Mu Chenzhou glared at him, his soul power surging and surging, transforming into a tangible air current that whistled and swirled around him. "Mu Chenfeng, you're dreaming! You won't succeed today!"
After saying that, he took the lead in attacking, and a stream of soul power shot out like a dragon emerging from the sea, heading straight for Mu Chenfeng.
Mu Chenfeng was not in a hurry. The Soul Devouring Order in his hand shone brightly and swallowed up the soul power in an instant, leaving no trace.
"Mu Chenzhou, you are no match for me. If you know what's good for you, hand over the Soul Jade and the Resurrection Pill. Otherwise, everyone in Qingfeng Valley will be buried with the Ancient Soul Jade!"
He threatened coldly.
Luo Li thought to herself that this Soul Devouring Order was so strange that it was probably close to the Saint Lord level, and the people behind him were all great lords. If they confronted him head on, Qingfeng Valley would probably be in trouble. She had to come up with a plan.
She immediately asked Mu Zhengnian about the location of the ancient soul jade.
Then he quietly winked at Mu Wuzhi and said, "Delay for time. I'll find a way."
Mu Wuzhi nodded slightly and pretended to be angry as she confronted Mu Chenfeng.
Luo Li took advantage of everyone's attention being drawn and quietly used the art of concealment. In a flash, she disappeared from the spot.
Relying on her keen perception, she ran towards the depths of Qingfeng Valley, where the ancient soul jade was stored and the Grand Elder of Qingfeng Valley was also in seclusion there.
It is also a place for spiritual masters in the valley to practice in seclusion, and perhaps they can find the key to breaking the deadlock.
At this time, Mu Chenfeng saw Luo Li disappear, and a sense of uneasiness surged in his heart, but he had no time to care about it. He waved the Soul-Devouring Order in his hand again and attacked Mu Chenzhou and others.
For a moment, the soul power in Qingfeng Valley surged, and the shouts of killing were deafening. Under this powerful impact, the light of the valley protection formation became dimmer and cracks began to spread.
Luo Li shuttled quickly through the secret paths of Qingfeng Valley. The wind whistled in her ears, but her heart was extremely calm.
The grass and trees along the way trembled slightly due to her soul power, and soon she arrived at the entrance of the retreat.
It is quiet and deep here, filled with an ancient and mysterious atmosphere. The entrance of the cave is engraved with ancient runes and emits a faint light.
Luo Li took a deep breath, raised her hand and touched the rune, trying to find a way to open it.
The moment her fingertips touched the rune, a powerful backlash force hit her, her arm instantly became numb, and she almost fell.
Luo Li narrowed her eyes slightly, closed her eyes, and mobilized the soul power in her body.
After a long time, the rune light flickered and slowly lit up, and the restriction at the cave entrance was quietly lifted.
