In fact, with Ling Xiao's status, he could have directly asked someone to bring Ding Gudu to see him.
But he was not a person who cared about trifles, and at the same time wanted to win people's hearts, so there was nothing unusual about going directly to Ding Gudu.
Only in this way could he show the importance and care he attached to his own people!
The place that Ding Gudu was arranged was a separate courtyard. Although it was a little small, the environment was quiet and secluded. It was a rare place to meditate and recuperate.
In the courtyard, Ding Gudu was brandishing an ordinary sword, seemingly practicing some kind of sword technique!
Unfortunately, he was just like an ordinary person now. The sword technique that he used only had the form but no spirit. There was no power at all, and it was completely just for show.
However, there was not the slightest hint of sadness on his face. Instead, there was a look of concentration. The sword technique that he brandished became more and more elegant, faintly containing a kind of inexplicable sword power!
When Ling Xiao saw this scene, he could not help but reveal a bit of admiration.
He had destroyed his own cultivation base, but now he did not have the slightest look of abandonment, which made Ling Xiao feel that he was a rare genius. To be able to subdue such a person was definitely a kind of luck for him!
"Brother Ding is able to practice diligently every day and become one of the Senjin Kingdom of Goguryeo, it is indeed not by chance!" Ling Xiao said, appearing not far from Ding Gudu.
Ding Gudu sheathed his sword, bowed slightly to Ling Xiao, and said, "Greetings, Lord Divine Medicine!
I've let you see a joke! "
Ling Xiao looked at Ding Gudu's indifferent appearance, as though he was not worried at all whether he had refined a divine pill that could restore his divine power. This kind of temperament, this kind of calmness was really rare!
"In the future, you should just call me by my name, there is no need to be so polite!" Ling Xiao said.
Ding Dugu insisted, "No, since I have chosen to follow you, you are my master from now on. I, Ding Dugu, will not be disloyal or disrespectful!"
Ling Xiao knew of Ding Gudu's faith and said, "Then you can call me the Peak Lord like everyone else, or Young Master." He paused for a moment and handed the Nirvana of the Phoenix Pill to Ding Gudu, "This is the Nirvana of the Phoenix Pill, it's made with the Blood Grass of the Phoenix Tribe as the main ingredient. Not only can it help you reform your dantian, it can also help you recover your cultivation. Take it!"
Ding Gudu could no longer remain calm. His trembling hands betrayed the excitement in his heart!
For the past few days, he had been pretending to be calm and collected. He wanted to reach the point where he was neither sad nor happy, and forget his identity as Senjin Of Goguryeo. He had already prepared himself for the worst!
Now that he had obtained the divine pill that Ling Xiao had refined for him, all his disguise had been revealed!
In fact, he was so eager to recover his strength, to recover his confidence and pride!
He took the Nirvana of the Phoenix Pill, and with a shake of his body, he knelt down in front of Ling Xiao and said, "Thank you, Young Master, for the pill!"
This kneel was very thorough, and it also proved that he would see Ling Xiao as the most worthy person in his life.
Ling Xiao did not stop him, and calmly accepted his kneel, because he had indeed saved his life, so he deserved this kneel!
Ling Xiao helped him up, "I will ask Haoyou to arrange a room for you to go into seclusion. When I see you next time, I hope that you have returned to your peak, or even a level higher!"
"Don't worry, Young Master, I will not let you down!" Ding Gudu said solemnly.
"En, you don't need to practice the Death Calamity Divine Technique anymore. After taking the pill, it is best to practice a new divine technique. Otherwise, if something strange happens again, I'm afraid you will not be able to recover!" Ling Xiao said.
Ding Gudu nodded and remembered Ling Xiao's words. He already had a new divine technique in his spatial ring for him to practice in the future!
After Ling Xiao talked with him for a while, he returned to his courtyard. After spending a few days with the women, he sent someone back to the clan to invite Ling Chen out, and prepared to go to the Demon Forest!
After Ling Chen came out, he set off with Dragon Fifth, Yang Hai, and Pang Tongge!
As for the prodigal, Hu Yue, and Rock Moving Gao, they were naturally left in the medicine cauldron.
"Big Brother, is everything ready?" Ling Xiao asked Ling Chen.
"No problem, we just need to find the land of the Ghost Tree Demons. We'll avoid the other demons if we can, I believe they won't be able to do anything to us!" Ling Chen replied, but when he looked at Yang Hai and Pang Tongge beside Ling Xiao, a look of doubt flashed across his eyes.
Ling Xiao had no choice but to introduce Yang Hai and Pang Tongge to him.
Ling Chen felt that Ling Xiao had found these two Supreme-Being experts for help, so he was even more confident!
The Myriad Demon Forest was located at the border between the Heavenly Dragon Domain and the Heavenly Sparrow Domain. That area was separated by many spatial barriers, and the Myriad Demon Forest was isolated from the rest of the world. It was not allowed to have any contact with human settlements, so as to prevent more people from being harmed!
This was the spatial barrier that the Supreme-Being from the Antiquity Time had specially set up. Because of the existence of this spatial barrier, the demons had to hide in the Demon Forest and couldn't harm the human world!
At the same time, this spatial barrier could only be entered by experts at the King God Realm and above. Anyone below the King God Realm couldn't enter, and if the demons wanted to come out, they would be attacked by this formation.
This spatial barrier did have a unique, heaven-defying power!
Ling Xiao, Ling Chen, and the others had already quietly arrived in front of this spatial barrier.
They looked down at the desolate land with no signs of human habitation and felt a strange demonic aura shooting up into the sky. Their faces became stern.
Yang Hai, who was following behind Ling Xiao, slightly shrunk his body. In his heart, he regretted following Ling Xiao to this place.
After all, the Demon Forest was infamous. Although many people could come out alive, most of them had gone crazy and died.
Although he was at the Incipient God Realm, he still felt so chilled. An unknown fear rose from the bottom of his feet to the top of his heart.
Ling Xiao glanced at Yang Hai. He could sense the other's strange situation. He chuckled and said, "Old Yang, if you're afraid, you can leave now!"
If Ling Xiao had said this to him alone, he would have turned around and left immediately without a word.
However, there were quite a few people here now. If he were to leave now, wouldn't his reputation be completely ruined? Since he had already come this far, he couldn't back down anymore!
"Master Alchemy God, you must be joking. It's just the Demon Forest. Why should I be afraid? I've entered the Heaven's Eye Sea and survived!" Yang Hai said confidently.
The Heaven's Eye Sea, one of the Eight Great Forbidden Lands, ranked seventh. It was a deep sea area between the Mysterious Sky Region and the Heaven Source Region. There was a Heaven's Eye vortex there. Once this vortex sucked people in, they would definitely die.
Yang Hai had been sucked in by the Heaven's Eye Sea when he was at the King God Realm. Later on, he had a lucky encounter that gave him the foundation to break through to the Incipient God Realm.
And this was also a glorious deed that he was proud of in his life!
However, no one present would believe it when it came from his mouth.
Everybody could see his cowardly appearance. If he had entered the Heaven's Eye Sea, one of the Eight Great Forbidden Lands, who would be such a coward?
In fact, this couldn't be blamed on Yang Hai. Back then, he could say that he had entered the Heaven's Eye Sea by mistake and he had almost died there. He had gone through a lot of luck to get the chance to leave. He paled at the mention of those forbidden lands. His courage was already scared out of his wits. He swore that he would never enter those forbidden lands again.
Just as Yang Hai was about to explain, Ling Chen had already taken the lead and shouted, "Let's go in. With our strength, I don't believe that we can't deal with the monsters here!"
Ling Chen activated the shield and directly rushed into the barrier.
Ling Xiao also rushed in, followed by Dragon Fifth and Pang Tongge.
Yang Hai hesitated for a while before murmuring, "I've entered the Heaven's Eye Sea before. This Demon Forest can't deal with me!"
After saying that, he also rushed into the Demon Forest.
The few of them stopped above the Myriad Demon Forest and looked at the endless ancient mountains and forests. A strange demonic wind blew past, and the "wu wu" sound was like the sound of demons and ghosts, sending chills down one's spine!
The primordial aura of this primordial forest assaulted one's nostrils, making one feel as if they had returned to the Primordial Era.
"What a dense demonic aura and desolate aura. No wonder people's expressions change when they talk about it!" Ling Chen murmured to himself.
Ling Xiao also thought so and said, "Only a place like this can preserve ancient beasts. It seems that there are definitely countless eleventh rank beasts here!"
As the most complete and largest ancient mountain range, the Demon Forest naturally had some advantages that other ancient mountain ranges couldn't compare to.
"According to the records, the Ghost Tree Demons exist in the Ghost Tree Ridge in the depths of the southeast. Let's go. Once we find what we need, we'll immediately return!" Ling Chen said.
At this time, Pang Tongge asked, "What kind of divine item are you looking for that you actually have to deal with those Ghost Tree Demons?"
The Ghost Tree Demons were the easiest to deal with among the many monsters. As long as they had divine weapons, it shouldn't be a problem to deal with them.
However, Pang Tongge and Yang Hai still didn't know what Ling Chen, Ling Xiao, and the others were looking for.
Ling Xiao said, "We're looking for the Wood Element Genesis Stone!"
As soon as he said that, Pang Tongge and Yang Hai's expressions slightly shrank. Their old eyes were filled with astonishment. It was obvious that they were very surprised by what Ling Xiao and Ling Chen were after!
If the Ghost Tree Ridge had the Genesis Stone, then it would most likely be the place where the highest level Ghost Tree Demons lived.
If they wanted to snatch it from the hands of those monsters, it would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens!
It must be known that monsters that had reached the peak, even if they were of the Wood Element, had incomparably terrifying attack power!
"As far as I know, no one has ever found the Genesis Stone from this place!" Yang Hai said with some concern.
"Others can't find it, but that doesn't mean we can't find it. If we don't go take a look, how will we know?" Ling Chen said and took the lead to fly in a direction.
The others immediately followed.
At this time, a strange demonic wind quietly blew in the direction they had just left!
