Chapter 1252: Attracting the Pill Beast
"Medicinal Pill?"
Everyone were stunned upon hearing these vulgarities of Xiao Yan. It was a long while later before they gradually recovered. Their eyes were filled with disbelief as they watched the snow white little beast. At this moment, the latter was staring at them curiously with a pair of intelligent eyes. How did this appearance resemble a medicinal pill?
"How could there be such a big medicinal pill?" Little Fairy Doctor mumbled.
"I"m definitely right. I will not recognise that kind of medicinal pill scent wrongly. Earlier, I thought that it was being emitted from some of the remaining medicinal pills. After a detailed probe, however, I discover that the pill fragrance is being emitted from the body of this small beast." Xiao Yan"s eyes were filled with a fiery heat that was difficult to hide.
"There are indeed some high tier medicinal pills that are indeed able to change form and even possess some intelligence. This place is an ancient remains left behind by an elite Dou Sheng. It is not very strange for there to be something like this…" Tian Huo zun-zhe said. He immediately smiled bitterly. He had never been able to see a medicinal pill that could turn into the form of a beast in his lifetime. At the very most, he had only read about in from some ancient books.
"Could this little beast be the legendary tier 9 medicinal pill?" Zi Yan asked curiously.
"Even if it is not a tier 9 medicinal pill, it is also almost there. Normally, as long as it is a medicinal pill that has experienced a seven or more coloured medicinal pill, it would possess the ability to transform into a beast shape. Moreover, its intelligence is also extremely great." Xiao Yan"s eyes stared at the little beast and softly said, "If I guess correctly, this little beast original form should be a medicinal pill that has experienced an eight or even nine coloured Pill Lightning. It is within close proximity to the nine tier medicinal pill."
"A tier 8 medicinal pill that has experienced an eight coloured Pill Lightning…"
Everyone looked at each other. Even within the entire current Dou Qi continent, the number of people who could refine a medicinal pill at this tier would likely not exceed one"s fingers. Even the current Xiao Yan was unable to refine it.
"If word of this was to spread, it is likely that the experts within this ancient remains would become crazy…" Little Fairy Doctor"s pretty eyes blinked and spoke in a somewhat solemn manner. The allure of a medicinal pill of this tier was one that even some old demons were unable to block. If they became aware of it, they would definitely use all their means to s.n.a.t.c.h it.
It was extremely difficult to raise one strength within the Dou Zun cla.s.s. If anyone could swallow this medicinal pill, his strength would end up advancing greatly. It could be equivalent to ten years or even a hundred years of training. How many people were immune to such an allure?
Xiao Yan"s group hurriedly recovered from their wild joy after hearing Little Fairy Doctor"s words. This thing was indeed a great treasure but it was also a scalding hot potato. If word of it was to spread, it was likely that everyone, who had entered this remains, would instantly become envious. At that time, they would really become the common enemy of everyone.
Xiao Yan mused for a moment. He turned his head and threw an expression towards Xiong Zhan. The latter also understood Xiao Yan after seeing this. He slowly took a couple of themes back and stood outside of the door. A fierce aura spread over his body as he guarded at the entrance like a strong being.
Although there are quite a number of experts on the third storey, few of them could surpa.s.s Xiong Zhan. With such a ferocious guard, even if others converted the thing inside, they would not dare to randomly barge in without being aware of the exact information. Moreover, this was the result that Xiao Yan"s group needed.
"Should we Capture this little fellow?" Zi Yan spoke with some excitement after seeing Xiong Zhan guarding the main entrance.
"Do not act rashly. This little fellow might not appear to possess any energy but it is not a nice party to offend. If it is frightened off, we will have difficulty finding it within such a large Pill Hall without its aura as a direction." Xiao Yan shook his head. A smile surfaced on his face as he said, "Moreover, we need not use any brute force in order to capture this little fellow."
"You have a method?" Little Fairy Doctor asked uncertainly.
Xiao Yan smiled slightly. He took a jade bottle from within his Storage Ring. The jade bottle contained a couple of tier 4 medicinal pills within it. He took out one of them from within it and tossed it towards that snow white little fellow in the distance.
The medicinal pill gently landed beside the snow white little beast. It rolled around. The latter pulled back some distance from shock before stepping forward to sniff it. However, it did not swallow it, an act that somewhat exceeded Xiao Yan"s expectations. All it did was shake its head and pulled back. From it action, it was clear that it completely looked down on such a low grade medicinal pill.
An embarra.s.sed expression appeared on Xiao Yan"s face when he saw this scene. Little Fairy Doctor and Zi Yan by the side involuntarily laughed. This little beast really did not give any face…
"Looks like it is being raised by those high tier medicinal pill…" Xiao Yan laughed bitterly. He could only take out a tier 6 medicinal pill that he had refined from his Storage Ring. With a flick of his finger, it had landed beside the small beast. After sniffing it a little, some excitement flashed across its large spiritual eyes. Its pink tender tongue swept this medicinal pill into its mouth like beans and swallowed it with a gulping sound.
The little beast raised its head once again after eating a tier 6 medicinal pills. Its intelligent large eyes stared at Xiao Yan. That pink tender tongue was repeatedly extended and withdraw like a small dog. Clearly, it had yet to eat till it was satisfied.
A joy rose within Xiao Yan"s heart when he saw this. The ancient book record was right. This kind of pill beast ate medicinal pills. Using medicinal pills to tame these pill beasts was the best method.
Xiao Yan once again took out a couple of tier 6 medicinal pills. He flickered all of them beside the snow white little beast. The latter did not reject any of them that came its way as it swallowed all of them into his stomach. After over a dozen medicinal pills were swallowed into its stomach, the caution within those eyes that the little beast used to look at Xiao Yan was also gradually reduced.
"This is squandering too much, no?"
Tian Huo zun-zhe involuntarily felt some heartache as he saw Xiao Yan continuously throw out these tier 6 medicinal pills like beans. It was difficult to seek these medicinal pills in the outside world even if one had money. Yet, it was currently used as feed.
"There is no choice. This little fellow"s mouth is too selective. It refuses to eat any medicinal pills below tier 6…" Xiao Yan also felt somewhat helpless. He had underestimated the pickiness of this pill beast towards food.
Tian Huo zun-zhe laughed bitterly. He could only watch Xiao Yan throw out one pill after another. Fortunately, these medicinal pills were not thrown without receiving any gain. At the very least, that snow white little beast was no longer as resistive of them.
This feeding continued for ten minutes. After this ten minutes, Xiao Yan had threw over twenty tier 6 medicinal pills and eight tier 7 medicinal pills. This spending rate caused even him to feel his heart dripping with blood towards the end. Even with his current ability, he would at the very need require a couple of days in order to refine those medicinal pills. Yet, all of them had disappeared under the squeaking chewing sound of the pill beast.
Fortunately, this spending was not endless. While Xiao Yan began to feel a little numb, the snow white small beast raised its hind foot in satisfaction. Two furry claws patted its round tummy. Its eyes were filled with satisfaction.
Xiao Yan sighed in relief after seeing that he had finally fed this little fellow until it was full. He whistled towards the snow white small beast. Those intelligent eyes of the beast glanced at him. It appeared to be intending to walk over but there were many people on Xiao Yan"s side. This caused it to hesitate a little.
Xiao Yan, who saw this scene, was finally aware that it was time to use some ruthless tactic. As long as this fellow would walk over willingly, he would be temporarily considered the owner of this pill beast.
With a flick of his hand, a transparent jade bottle appeared within it. There was a round medicinal pill being contained inside. A pill fog that was filled with spirituality lingered within the jade bottle. That medicinal pill appeared to be in possession of a spirituality as it was suspended within the jade bottle while swaying left and right.
This medicinal pill was naturally the highest tier medicinal pill that Xiao Yan currently possessed. It was the Bone Growing Blood Fusing Pill that had summoned a five coloured Pill Lightning when he refined it back at the Pill Gathering.
The eyes of the little beast widened into a circle when this medicinal pill appeared. Immediately, its forelimbs sprung on the tabletop. Its round body drew an arc over the midair and charged over towards Xiao Yan in an anxious manner.
A brilliant smile surfaced on Xiao Yan"s face when he saw this. Little fellow, you have taken the bait…
The snow white little beast drew an arc over the midair. However, when it was about to collide into Xiao Yan"s embrace, its body suddenly stiffened. A sudden suction force surged and directly pulled its body away.
This sudden unexpected change caused Xiao Yan"s group to be startled. Xiao Yan was the fastest to react. His expression became gloomy almost instantly as his eyes swept upwards. A somewhat slim shadow figure flashed and grabbed the pill beast forcefully in its hands.
"Little fellow, I"ll see where you will run to this time around!"
The black shadow figure grabbed the pill beast, ignored its intense struggle and laughed.
"You are seeking death!"
Xiao Yan"s expression was gloomy. His body flashed and he directly appeared in front of the black shadow. Purple-brown flame lingered over his palms and his palm violently slammed towards Xiao Yan.
"Bang!"
That black shadow figure was unafraid in the face of this attack by Xiao Yan. He turned around and slammed backwards, colliding heavily with Xiao Yan"s hands.
Both hands crossed each other. Xiao Yan"s body trembled and the black shadow figure swiftly took a couple of steps back. Finally, it leaped onto a beam in a vigourous manner and looked down at everyone from above. He coldly said, "I have chased this pill beast for a long time. Are all of you intending to s.n.a.t.c.h with me?"
Xiao Yan was expressionless. His eyes stared at the ghost mask on the face of the black shadow figure. A cold glint flashed across them, "You again!"
The black shadow figure that had suddenly appeared was surprisingly the mysterious person that had attacked Zi Yan back then.
"You freaking woman who dares to attack this grandaunt. Are you tired of living?" Zi Yan had also recognised this person and she roared furiously,
"d.a.m.nit, this girl is really too evil. The old me became absent minded because of that green light of hers, allowing her to sneak in." Xiong Zhan also charged in and cried furiously.
Xiao Yan"s expression was gloomy. He suppressed the fury within his heart and threw an expression towards Little Fairy Doctor and Tian Huo zun-zhe. The both of them withdrew some distance away and sealed off the retreat path of this black shadow person.
"Hand the pill beast to us and we can choose not to pursue the previous matter. Otherwise, do not blame us for being vicious!"
Chapter 1253: Qing Lin?
"Humph, I have already chased this beast for a long time. You are the ones who are s.n.a.t.c.hing it. Yet, you wish to hand it over to you now, isn"t that a joke?"
That black shadow figure immediately laughed coldly upon hearing these words of Xiao Yan. Clearly, the figure was a woman. Moreover, it was likely that she was quite young.
"Just where did this woman come from? She already possessed such a mysterious tactic at such an age. There isn"t any word of such a young and outstanding person in the Central Plains." Xiao Yan"s expression was gloomy. A thought swiftly flew within his heart. However, he was still without any conclusion a moment later. At the end, he could only attribute it to there being too many hidden experts within the Central Plains.
"Woman, you are really shameless. The things here belongs to no one. Would it not be a joke to say it belongs to whoever set sight on it first? If you have the ability, you should release the Pill Beast and see just which side it will run towards!" Zi Yan cried out.
That black shadow person softly snorted in the face of Zi Yans" cry. However, her hands that were grabbing onto the pill beast did not relax even a little. She was naturally aware that if she let this little fellow go, it will definitely flee towards the other side.
"I will not hand over the Pill Beast. If you wish to fight, you can just attack…"
A pair of eyes emitting a bright green light swept over the place from under the ghost mask. Finally, they paused on Xiao Yan"s gloomy face. For some unknown reason, this unusually strong young man gave her a kind of strange feeling. That feeling was as though she was once acquainted with him.
She knitted her brows and thought about it but was unable to recall anything at this moment. All she could do was to suppress it in her heart. Her eyes swept all over the place in an attempt to find a spot where she could escape from the encirclement.
A chillness flashed across Xiao Yan"s eyes when he saw this black shadow figure did not show any signs of giving up. This Pill Beast was far too rare and important. If he could obtain it and groom it properly, it might really possess the opportunity to advance into the legendary tier 9 level. At that time, it would definitely enable his strength to soar greatly. Even surpa.s.s the Tianzun of the Hall of Soul would be an ordinary thing.
"In that case, do not blame us for relying on our larger numbers."
Xiao Yan slowly stepped forward. Purple-brown flame spread out like a furious dragon, covering his body. His foot suddenly stomped on the ground and his body appeared in front of the black shadow figure in a lightning like manner. Hot sharp palm wind directly smashed violently towards the latter"s head.
"Humph!"
The black shadow person also let out a cold snort when she saw Xiao Yan attack. Her footsteps pulled back in an agile manner and she dodge the palm wind. A green glow suddenly flashed from under the ghost mask.
"The one who relies on a larger number of people is likely me!"
The cold cry of the black shadow person sounded and the s.p.a.ce in front of her immediately became distorted. Immediately, over a dozen figures appeared from out of nowhere. They let out a furious cry in usion. Over a dozen incomparably fierce wind smashed towards Xiao Yan.
A caution rose within Xiao Yan"s heart when the green glow of the black shadow person appeared. Hence, he might be surprised when these human figures suddenly appeared but he did not panic. His body flashed in a ghost like manner and dodged the palm wind that came flying from all directions. However, he had also took a couple of steps back as a result.
Xiao Yan stabilized his body. He raised his head and looked at the dozen over black clothed figures standing in the midair. His eyebrows were involuntarily knitted. The aura of these people were extremely strong. Those two leading black robed elders had even reached the Dou Zun cla.s.s. Those behind were all experts at the peak of the Dou Zong cla.s.s. By placing these people together, just their numbers alone would far exceed Xiao Yan"s group.
"Most of these people are experts from the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python tribes…" Zi Yan spoke in a deep voice.
Xiao Yan nodded slightly. There was a little fear within his eyes as he looked at the black shadow person. This person was actually really able to completely control these experts. Moreover, she was even able to use this kind of mysterious spatial method to carry these controlled experts with her. That manner was completely like a movable guard warehouse.
Xiao Yan"s eyes carefully looked at these experts a short distance in front of him. He discovered that there was still some remnant consciousness within their eyes. However, from the looks of their manner, it appeared that their bodies were already completely being controlled.
"This woman has controlled their bodies but they still possess their own consciousness. What a strange technique…"
Xiao Yan"s heart was cold when he discovered this scene. Originally, he thought that this woman had used some method to refine puppets and refine these experts. However, from the looks of this current situation, it seemed that she had directly controlled the bodies of these people. Moreover, she had even sealed their souls within their bodies. These techniques were not only mysterious but it was also not as complicated as refining a puppet. These various situation caused the caution within Xiao Yan"s heart to become increasingly deep.
Although he felt a fear, he must still obtain the Pill Beast. This kind of thing was too rare. Even with Xiao Yan"s calmness, he was unable to resist its allure. Moreover, two Dou Zuns and over a dozen peak Dou Zongs were unable to deter and force him back.
"Do you need us to attack?" Little Fairy Doctor frowned slightly and asked when she saw the black shadow person summoning so many experts.
"There is no need. All of you should guard the surroundings. Do not allow anyone in and do not give her an opportunity to escape." Xiao Yan shook his head. He waved his hand and the Sky Demon Puppet as well as the ten Earth Demon Puppet appeared. An order was issued within his heart and the glow on these eleven puppets surged. It charged forward without fearing death adn collided violently with that group of expert.
"I want to see just what other methods you have!"
Xiao Yan"s expression had become icy cold after he blocked these experts. A silver glow flashed under his feet and he appeared in front of the black shadow person in a lightning like fas.h.i.+on. Surging hot wind suddenly rushed over like a storm.
That black shadow person did not dare to slight this swift attack by Xiao Yan. After exchanging blows, she understood that the former"s Dou Qi was extremely strange. Once it invaded his body, there would definitely be quite a great amount of trouble. Currently, she was injured. If she was to suffer another devastating blow, it was likely that she could only withdraw.
A thought flew within the black shadow person"s mind. His footsteps also swiftly pulled back. A moment later, he finally had nowhere to withdraw to. Both of his hands were placed together and it formed some strange seals in a lightning like fas.h.i.+on.
"Soul s.n.a.t.c.hing!"
A cold cry was being emitted from the mouth of the black shadow person. A bright green light immediately shot out and shone onto Xiao Yan"s body.
Xiao Yan"s heart was cold when the green glow was shot over. Purple-brown flame hurried covered his body. Even though this was the case, Xiao Yan suddenly sensed that the soul between his brows had suddenly leaped when the green light shot onto his body. It was as though it was about to leave his body.
This unexpected change had caused Xiao Yan"s heart to be greatly startled. He hurriedly suppressed his soul and forcefully controlled the kind of unusual restlessness.
"What a mysterious demonic skill!"
Although Xiao Yan had suppressed his soul, he had began to feel a little chilly in the face of these tactics by this woman. He could be considered to have experienced quite a number of opponents during these years. However, he had never seen one so mysterious.
"Bang!"
Xiao Yan"s fist violently smashed onto the empty s.p.a.ce after he had suppressed his soul. A frightening wind penetrated through the s.p.a.ce and landed heavily on the black shadow figures. However, the latter"s body clearly had a green light flas.h.i.+ng over it when she was about to be struck. Over half the force was blocked.
"Humph!"
The strength of this punch from Xiao Yan had been reduced by more than half. The remaining strength continued to frighten that black shadow person until he hurriedly withdrew. A couple of cross-beams ended up breaking apart from colliding with the figure.
"Hand the Pill Beast over!"
Xiao Yan"s expression was icy cold after forcing back the black shadow person with a punch. He quickly gave chase. How fist wind erupted at this moment and covered all of the fatal spots around the black shadow person"s body.
"In your dreams!"
Although the black shadow person was being continuously defeated, she was also quite stubborn. Green light flashed. The Pill Beast in her hand strangely disappeared. Immediately, her hands hurriedly changed the seals it formed and waves after waves of bright green light rushed out from the ghost mask in all directions.
"Demon Eye Body Control!"
Green light erupted. Immediately, the mask of the black shadow person became distorted. An instant later, it actually formed a face size green eye. This was an extremely demonic and mysterious eye. Three green small snakes were lingering within it. Each of their heads were connected to another"s tail as they encircled around the eye. As they swiftly rotated, waves after waves of mysterious energy was immediately scattered from it.
The moment that the green demon eye appeared, Xiao Yan suddenly sensed that his body had suddenly stiffened. It was as though his control over his body had strangely disappeared at this moment.
This kind of unexpected change caused Xiao Yan"s heart to be greatly startled. Fortunately, he did not panic. With his ability, he need not need to rely on his body in order to attack. A thought pa.s.sed through his mind and the vast and mighty Spiritual Strength within his brows spread. It agglomerated into a somewhat illusory human figure in the midair in front of him. The fist of the human figure moved and a punch was thrown forward violently.
"Chi!"
Vast and mighty Spiritual Strength formed a spiritual hand seal on Xiao Yan"s ghost fist. After which, it suddenly rushed out and landed heavily on the demonic eye.
"Bang!"
A fist smashed onto the demonic eye and the demonic eye trembled intensely. Finally, it slowly disappeared. The remanent strength also violently poured onto the black human figure"s ghost mask.
The heavy attack by this Spiritual Strength directly sent the black shadow figure flying out. Finally, she smashed heavily onto the hard wall of the Pill Room.
Xiao Yan"s face was dark and solemn. His body moved and appeared in front of the black shadow person. He clenched his fist and the heavy ruler appeared. After which, it paused onto the latter"s throat. An icy cold voice appeared, "Are you going to hand over the Pill Beast now?"
"No!"
The black shadow person rubbed the blood trace from the corner of her mouth. She stubbornly raised her head, stared furiously at Xiao Yan in front of her and spoke with gritting teeth.
A fury rose within Xiao Yan"s heart when he heard this. He turned his eyes and was about to cry out furiously when he became startled.
Under the ghost mask was an exquisite melon shape face. However, this small face was covered by a kind of stubborn expression. Of course, the thing that caught Xiao Yan"s attention was not this but the pair of eyes belonging to the girl.
It was a pair of completely green beautiful eyes. However, deep within the eyes were three green coloured small spots. They surrounded the eyes and rotated slowly, filling it with a kind of demonic and mysterious feeling.
"Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils?"
Xiao Yan instantly inhaled a breath of cool air as he looked at this pair of eyes. His gaze suddenly turned towards the exquisite face. A kind of familiar feeling suddenly appeared at this instant. An exclamation of disbelief involuntarily escaped from his mouth.
"You… Qing Lin?"
