"How long has it been?" Yun Shisan felt that Mo Wanqing was about to finish refining the pill, so it should have been a long time.
"Five days!"
Mo Wanqing stretched out her hand and said, "It's already been five days, did you break through?"
Yun Shisan nodded and said, "Not only did I break through, but I also had some unexpected gains!"
The unexpected gains he was talking about were the minor techniques of the eight forms of saber techniques.
Mo Wanqing didn't ask any more questions. The two of them weren't close enough to talk about everything, so she knew that there were some things that couldn't be asked.
Yun Shisan saw that Mo Wanqing was focused on refining the pill and didn't ask any more questions. He also quietly watched from the side. His gaze wandered between Mo Wanqing and the pill furnace, but he still looked at the beauty more.
It had to be said that Mo Wanqing was very beautiful and also very pleasing to the eye. Under the illumination of the fire, she was like a noble phoenix bathing in fire!
Yun Shisan felt that Mo Wanqing would be more beautiful if she changed out of her red dress and wore white or light blue clothes. After all, after these days of being together, he found that Mo Wanqing's temperament was relatively gentle. Although this red dress was very suitable for her fire attribute spirit root, it didn't match her temperament.
Yun Shisan looked for a while and asked, "When will this batch of pills be completed?"
Mo Wanqing calculated the time and said, "Three days. I can add the Heavenly Spirit Fruit tomorrow, and if there are no accidents, it will be completed. Then I'll refine it for another day!"
Mo Wanqing patted her head and suddenly thought of something. She said, "Oh right, Little Yue and the others came back on the first day when they went out to train. They haven't come back these past few days. Fu Jiu said not to worry, but I think you still need to go take a look!"
"They haven't come back for a few days, so I should go take a look. But I'm going out, what about you?"
Yun Shisan was still a bit worried that something might happen to Mo Wanqing's pill refining, so he didn't feel at ease leaving her here alone.
Mo Wanqing shook her head and said, "You don't need to worry about me here. There are restrictions in this cave, so the medicinal fragrance won't spread out!"
After Fu Jiu found out that she was refining pills, he specially laid down restrictions to prevent the medicinal fragrance from spreading and attracting demonic beasts.
Yun Shisan walked out of the cave and saw Fu Jiu sitting on a rock outside in a daze.
"Yo, are you basking in the sun?"
"Who's your brother?"
Yun Shisan walked over and said with a playful face, "Isn't it you?
Didn't you say that whoever is standing is the big brother? In the end, you're the one lying on the ground! "
"Forget it, I'm not going to argue with you. It's about time. I should go out!" Fu Jiu said as he stood up and walked towards the south.
"Are you deliberately saying that to me?"
Yun Shisan smiled. Wasn't this deliberately said for him to hear?
Looking at Fu Jiu who was slowly walking forward, he said, "The direction you're going doesn't seem right. It should be southeast. Since you can go straight, why take a detour?"
"You, how do you know that the Wisteria Gourd is in the southeast?"
Fu Jiu abruptly turned around and stared at Yun Shisan. He didn't remember telling him where the Wisteria Gourd was!
He remembered very clearly that he said it was deep in the forest that night. He also knew very well that he wasn't drunk that night.
If he was drunk and told the real location, it would be reasonable. But now, Yun Shisan actually knew where the Wisteria Gourd was.
Yun Shisan frowned and said with a puzzled face, "Wisteria Gourd?
What the hell? "
Fu Jiu turned back and stared at Yun Shisan and said, "Stop pretending. I wasn't drunk that night!"
Yun Shisan saw that Fu Jiu finally spoke the truth and said with a smile, "So you're saying that you deliberately set a trap for me to jump into?"
Fu Jiu stared at Yun Shisan for a long time and said, "That's not true. I just wanted to test you!"
"You tested me?
Why do you want to test me? "
Yun Shisan didn't understand. It was normal to not trust a person you just met, but there was no need to test him.
"In the beginning, I tested you. You don't need to know the reason. Later on, I used the Wisteria Gourd to test you. I just wanted to see if you were trustworthy!"
Yun Shisan shook his head. He didn't need to get to the bottom of it. People like Fu Jiu who were always on guard either had a story or were delusional.
He looked at Fu Jiu and said, "Okay, I won't ask anymore. Do you trust us now?"
Fu Jiu lowered his head and pondered. After a long time, he spat out three words, "I don't know!"
Yun Shisan smiled and said, "Since you don't trust us, you can kill us!"
"I need help. There are three powerful spirit beasts guarding the Wisteria Gourd. I can't do it alone." Fu Jiu was very honest.
Yun Shisan immediately shook his head and said, "Our cultivations are too low, so we can't help."
Chen Xi didn't have the mood to deal with spirit beasts that even Fu Jiu couldn't deal with. With his little bit of strength and cultivation, it was utterly impossible for him to go head-on against powerful spirit beasts. Moreover, there would definitely be more than three spirit beasts at that time.
Fu Jiu immediately said, "At that time, I'll keep those three Domain Enlightened Spirit God Realm spirit beasts busy while all of you think of a way to keep the other spirit beasts busy. After that, one of you will take the Wisteria Gourd as quickly as possible. That'll be enough."
"That's too dangerous. Not to mention whether we can succeed or not, what if we succeed?"
Yun Shisan was confident in his ability to obtain the Wisteria Gourd. By relying on the Art of Divination, he wouldn't return empty-handed even if he didn't have the help of others!
But if he worked together with Fu Jiu, then how would he distribute the Wisteria Gourd after he obtained it successfully?
Or perhaps Fu Jiu would directly kill him and seize his treasures. This was the question he was most concerned about.
Fu Jiu sat down once more on a large rock, and he pondered deeply for a long time before he said, "No matter how many Wisteria Gourds you obtain, I want two. If you don't even obtain two, then it can't be helped. Every single one you obtain belongs to me, and I can swear an oath in the heart that I won't kill all of you to seize your treasures. What do you think?"
An oath in the heart was a type of oath in the heart between cultivators. If the oath was violated, then inner demons would arise within the cultivator, and the consequences of violating the oath would be punished according to the oath!
However, the consequences of the punishment weren't equal to the result. Some cultivators had strong Dao Hearts and firm wills, so the effects of inner demons were almost negligible. So long as it wasn't an extremely serious oath in the heart, then it was possible to overcome it.
Yun Shisan shook his head. He naturally didn't agree with an oath in the heart because it wasn't reliable. He said, "An oath in the heart isn't enough. Swear an oath in the Heaven Dao. I only believe in oaths in the Heaven Dao."
"Do you have to be so ruthless?"
"It seems like you don't have sincerity. We can cooperate, but I have two conditions. First, you have to swear an oath in the Heaven Dao.
Second, you have to change your conditions. If we obtain six or less Wisteria Gourds, then we'll grant you one first. If we obtain more than six Wisteria Gourds, then you'll obtain two. "
Fu Jiu widened his eyes and said, "I can agree to the oath in the Heaven Dao, but the following conditions are too harsh. No matter how many we obtain, I must have the opportunity to choose two first. Otherwise, there's no way to negotiate."
Yun Shisan spread out his hands and said with a smile, "Then there's no other way. Moreover, you don't need to go take a look now. Even if you go, it'll be a waste of time. It should be about done in three days!"
Yun Shisan walked outside after he finished speaking, and he didn't forget to say, "In any case, these are my conditions. You still have three days to consider. It's up to you whether you want to cooperate or not.
If you don't want to cooperate, then we'll think of something ourselves. When the time comes, we'll rely on our own methods. Think about it carefully. "
Yun Shisan didn't stop after he finished speaking. He sped up and headed in the direction that Mo Wanqing had told him.
He didn't have anyone to guide him. He could only roughly identify the direction and walk straight. Fortunately, this forest was a place where Yao Beasts were active. There weren't any weeds on the ground, and there weren't any tall bushes. It was very convenient for him to walk.
"Eh? What's that?"
Just as Yun Shisan was passing through a dark and damp area, his eyes caught a glimpse of a large brown object under a large tree. Upon closer inspection, it looked like a huge mushroom. However, if one didn't look closely, such a large mushroom would look like a pile of mud.
Yun Shisan walked over and carefully examined it for a while. He said in surprise, "I didn't expect this to be a Lingzhi. This basin-sized mushroom should be at least a thousand years old based on the veins on it, right?"
Yun Shisan didn't know much about Spiritual Herbs, but he knew that such a large Lingzhi was definitely a treasure. He happily took out a large box.
"Roar ~"
Suddenly, a beast roar sounded behind him. Yun Shisan, who was about to pick the Lingzhi, was startled. He turned around and saw a large white tiger glaring at him.
"What the f * ck, it's actually a Divine Beast White Tiger. I say, how could such a large Lingzhi not have a Yao Beast guarding it?"
Yun Shisan held the Invisible Dual Blade in his hand and looked at the White Tiger vigilantly. Ordinary treasures would be guarded by Yao Beasts, and such a large Lingzhi was no exception.
"This guy isn't a Divine Beast. It doesn't have any charm. It should be an ordinary Spiritual Beast!"
Yun Shisan didn't find any charm on the White Tiger. The White Tiger was a Divine Beast, but not every White Tiger was a Divine Beast. Only those who had the direct bloodline of the Divine Beast White Tiger were Divine Beasts.
It was like an Emperor. Before the founding of the country, the Emperor wasn't part of the Imperial Family. Only the Emperor's direct descendants were part of the Imperial Family.
However, ordinary White Tigers were all Spiritual Beasts. Spiritual Beasts were different from Vicious Beasts. Spiritual Beasts had spiritual intelligence, which meant that they had spirituality. They could think and understand the human language. Spiritual Beasts were also the first choice for cultivators to take in pets, beasts, and mounts.
Yun Shisan could sense that the White Tiger was at Cryptic Realm. He immediately put the box into the Qinglian Dimension and waved his hand, "About that, I was just passing by. I didn't know that this was an item with an owner!"
"Roar!"
The White Tiger suddenly roared and pounced at Yun Shisan. It didn't care if he was just passing by, as far as he was concerned, he was food.
The White Tiger was a bloodthirsty creature. It didn't even give Yun Shisan a chance to explain. It opened its mouth and pounced at him with a look of disdain in its eyes.
"I didn't want to waste my time with you, but since you insist on dying, then you can try out my minor skill with the blade. Invisible Dual Blade – Flying Snake!"
Yun Shisan didn't even unsheathe his Invisible Dual Blade. Instead, he used a skill together with the scabbard. The Invisible Dual Blade in his hand instantly slashed out, and a fiery red sword glare appeared.
The sword glare instantly exploded into tiny sword glances. The sword glare turned into a sea of fire and rushed toward the White Tiger. It was as if the sword glare was going to cut the White Tiger into pieces.
