Chapter 296: Shielding the Secret
Ye Shi walked out of the spirit tower. There was no one around him. Ye Shi was saying something to the "air" around him, as if he was talking to himself. The scene looked extremely weird.
The mirror recording Muchen's image suddenly exploded.
When the cultivators present saw this scene, they were suddenly shocked.
"What's going on! Why did Muchen's image explode?" Bai Chengfeng asked in confusion.
"Mu Chen should be promoted to a six-star martial master." Wu Feng said after a moment of thought.
Wu Zun has the ability to spy on the fate of others. Once Wu Zong is promoted to six stars, he will have the ability to block the secrets of heaven.
Bai Chengfeng blinked and said, "So fast? Tsk tsk, a six-star martial arts master at the age of twenty, amazing, amazing. Chen Xing, your son-in-law is even more talented than you!"
"But how could it be so fast? I know, it must be dual cultivation. It must have helped him. Dual cultivation is really a good thing! After dual cultivation, he made rapid progress..."
"Strange! Why didn't Yanxing advance? Yanxing must have been too comfortable and forgot to practice."
Bai Chenxing looked at Bai Chengfeng with gritted teeth and said, "Shut up."
Bai Chengfeng was fanning himself with a tattered palm-leaf fan, "Chen Xing, don't be so serious! You're so serious, you're not friendly!"
Bai Chengfeng didn't know that Mu Chen's advancement to the six-star martial arts master was indeed due to the dual cultivation factor, but it was more due to the gradual recovery of the little tiger and the spirit tower's strength that led to the increase in Mu Chen's strength.
Wu Feng looked at Bai Chengfeng thoughtfully. Bai Chengfeng was a nine-star martial master. With the help of Lingxin Pill and the formation created by Ye Shi, the Bai family might have another martial master.
Within the secret realm.
Ye Shi asked Muchen, "Muchen, how many kinds of elixirs do you plan to refine? Which eighth-level elixir should you refine first? Are you sure about it?"
At the gathering place of the alchemists, everyone felt dizzy and filled with complaints when they saw Ye Shi's lip movements.
Ever since Muchen refined the eighth-level pill for the third time, many alchemists came out, and they saw that Muchen might start refining the pill again. However, Muchen advanced to the level of a six-star martial master, and Muchen blocked the secret of heaven, so the people present could no longer watch Muchen refine the pill.
There were complaints everywhere where the alchemists gathered, but Bai Chenxing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Because of the relationship between Ye Shi and Muchen, Bai Chenxing had long regarded Muchen as his own. Seeing Muchen making pills for people for free time and time again, although Bai Chenxing felt proud, he felt more at a disadvantage.
…
The little tiger looked at Ye Shi and Muchen, smiled sinisterly, and said, "Oh, you finally finished rolling around. It wasn't easy! I thought you were biting each other to death."
Ye Shi blushed slightly and said, "What do you know?"
The little tiger said unhappily, "I've lived for so long, what's there to not understand? You two are just eating each other, back and forth. Pretty boy, are you covered in tooth marks now?"
"Shut up." Ye Shi said unhappily.
The little tiger said dissatisfiedly, "You were the one who asked me what I knew, and now that I knew, you're angry again."
Ye Shi blushed and said, "Shut up, shut up, don't talk."
The little tiger scratched his neck in frustration, "Little Pretty Boy, you're too rough. This isn't good, this isn't good..."
"Master Little White Face, many people have come to see you recently," said Ta Ling.
Ye Shi frowned and said, "Looking for me, what do you want from me?"
"I'm looking for you to use the formation to advance!" Tower Spirit said as a matter of course.
Ye Shi said puzzledly: "If they want to use formations, they should be at least nine-star martial emperors! Where do so many nine-star martial emperors come from?"
Mu Chen said helplessly, "Do you think other people's cultivation will never stop? It's been more than a month, which is equivalent to a year outside. There are so many good things in the secret realm. You are already a four-star martial arts master, so others can naturally move up as well."
Ye Shi nodded and said, "That's right. What should we do now?"
"Let's make the elixir first. It would be bad if someone brings a human head and I don't have any elixir to exchange with them." Mu Chen said without thinking.
Ye Shi nodded and said, "Yeah, that's true."
"Little pretty boy, the tower master is going to refine the elixir soon, and you will be struck by lightning again. Aren't you happy?" asked the little tiger.
Ye Shi said unhappily, "You're the only one who knows the most."
The little tiger said proudly, "Of course I know much more than you do. I know everything. You people are really weird! Not only do you like to roll around and bite each other, but you also like to be struck by lightning. Otherwise, you two-legged monsters all deserve a beating."
Ye Shi: “…”
Mu Chen looked at the little tiger with a dark face and said, "Tiger cub, have you been talking nonsense while I'm away?"
The little tiger said angrily, "Asshole, what are you calling me? You're just a cub."
Mu Chen snorted coldly and said gloomily: "I'm asking you a question, don't change the subject."
The little tiger said softly, "I'm not talking nonsense." At most, he said you were a pretty boy, or maybe impotent... What exactly does impotence mean? Impotence sounds scary.
"Be careful." Mu Chen said grimly.
The little tiger looked at Mu Chen with resentment, but didn't say much.
"Let's go." Mu Chen said to Ye Shi.
Ye Shi nodded and said, "Okay!"
…
Mu Chen's image could no longer be seen. People outside the secret realm could only see Ye Shi performing a solo show.
"Ah! Yanxing is setting up the formation. It seems that Mu Chen is going to make the elixir." Bai Chengfeng muttered.
Bai Chenxing nodded and said, "Yes!"
Bai Chenxing looked at the gathering place of the alchemists, and saw the sad faces of the alchemists, and secretly laughed in his heart.
Bai Chengfeng patted Bai Chenxing's shoulder and said, "Chenxing! Mu Chen and Yan Xing will be out soon. Go find Mu Chen and ask him to give me two Spirit Heart Pills."
"Why do you want me to tell you?" Bai Chenxing frowned.
Bai Chengfeng said as a matter of course: "Isn't it because you are his father-in-law? If I were his father-in-law, why would I need you..."
Bai Chenxing: “…”
"Tsk tsk, if I had a daughter, I would have her marry a man like Muchen. No wonder your son beats up every one of those people from the Bai family who are after him. How can those people compare to Muchen?"
Bai Chenxing: “…”
Bai Chengfeng looked at Ye Shi guarding outside the formation. The formation was empty, with nothing in it.
"There is nothing inside the formation." Bai Chengfeng said.
Bai Chenxing nodded and said, "Yes! But, who knows, Mu Chen might have already started."
Bai Chengfeng nodded and said, "That's right."
The cultivators on the Dan Tower side all had distorted expressions. Bai Chenxing looked at the regretful, hateful, and anxious expressions of the alchemists, and felt secretly happy in his heart.
…
"Pretty boy, this is the spiritual vein information that was recently sent over." The tower spirit handed a jade slip to Ye Shidao.
Ye Shi looked at the information in the jade slip and said, "So much information about the Yuanshi mines! There must be something wrong."
The tower spirit proudly shook the gourds all over its body and said, "You underestimate me too much. Someone did try to deceive me, but I could tell at a glance that the guy was up to something. That idiot caused the tiger to burn off its third leg."
Ye Shi looked at Ta Ling with a strange expression and said, "What do you know about the third leg?"
Ta Ling shook his head, his eyes flickering as he said, "I don't understand! Everyone who saw it said the same thing."
Ye Shi: “…”
Ye Shi looked at the sky and said, "Thunder clouds are coming."
The tower spirit looked at Ye Shi with curiosity and asked, "What kind of elixir did Mu Chen refine this time?"
Ye Shi frowned and said, "I heard from Muchen that there's a pill called Zunyi Pill that can help Martial Lords cultivate. However, it seems to only be effective for Martial Lords below five stars. It's useless for Martial Lords above five stars. Father is already a nine-star Martial Lord, so this pill is of little use to him."
The tower spirit said with disdain, "It's actually this kind of useless pill. No one wants it even after it's been refined. The tower master just likes to refine this kind of cheap stuff. But there's nothing we can do about it. Who can help it? The tower master's level is not high enough."
Ye Shi frowned and said, "Don't talk nonsense. How can the Zun Yi Dan be useless? If no one wants it, many people will grab it."
The tower spirit said disapprovingly, "Someone wants it. Who? You? Tsk tsk, you're not picky. You like to eat any cheap food."
Ye Shi looked at Ta Ling and said, "Shut up."
Tower Spirit: “…”
Outside the secret realm.
"Who is Yanxing talking to? It seems like someone told him that Zunyi Dan is useless and no one wants it!" Bai Chengfeng asked curiously.
Bai Chenxing frowned and said, "It should be that tower spirit."
Bai Chengfeng blinked his eyes and said, "Oh, this damn tower spirit really doesn't know what's good! No one wants it, but I want it! No matter how much you give me, I won't refuse it."
Bai Chenxing rolled his eyes and said, "What nonsense are you thinking about? If it really is the Zunyi Pill, will it be your turn?"
Bai Chengfeng: "..."
"The pill tribulation is coming," someone said next to him.
Although Muchen could no longer be seen, the dense red clouds in the sky could still be seen through Ye Shi's image.
Although Mu Chen's actions were completely invisible, not many people from the Alchemist Guild left.
"Danyun, eight Danyuns! Eight elixirs are about to be born."
Bai Chengfeng couldn't help but reveal a strange expression on his face. "It seems that refining the Zunyi Pill should be more difficult than the Lingxin Pill. How come eight of them appeared at once? Mu Chen's alchemy skills have improved again, right?"
Bai Chenxing narrowed his eyes and said, "Maybe, after all, Mu Chen's strength has improved."
Bai Chengfeng took a deep breath. This guy Mu Chen was truly amazing! He succeeded in refining the elixir every time.
"Chen Xing! You have a good relationship with Mu Chen. You must leave one of these Yi Dan for your uncle!"
"Chen Xing! Third Grandpa, you have been stuck at the two-star Martial Master level for decades. Whether you can advance to the Martial Master level depends on you."
"Chen Xing! Good things should be kept within the family. Why are you giving one of these pills to your grandfather?"
“…”
Although Bai Chenxing is strong, he is young and has a low seniority in the Bai family. When a group of Bai family elders rushed forward, Bai Chenxing was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
