"Kid, you're pretty smart. Do a good job for me, and you won't be short of benefits in the future."
Gong Pingyang nodded in satisfaction when he saw Mu Junteng's performance. He made some promises to Mu Junteng before saying, "I still need to get used to my new body. Do as you please here."
"Yes!"
Mu Junteng nodded in response, but he did not leave on his own. Instead, he began to stand guard for Gong Pingyang.
In Mu Junteng's opinion, since he had already followed Gong Pingyang, he naturally had to gain his trust first.
Mu Junteng's face sank as he stood guard by Gong Pingyang's side. Intense hatred rose up in his heart, and he said, "Mo Qingyun, senior Gong has already set his eyes on you. You won't be able to be complacent for much longer. There's no pill devil here to protect you."
…
Outside the valley.
Mo Qingyun still showed lingering fear after escaping from the valley. He was unable to calm down even after a long time. He thought in surprise, "I never thought that there would be such a terrifying existence in the valley. It looks like the Sacred Medicine Valley is filled with danger."
Mo Qingyun murmured to himself. He did not dare to stay any longer and immediately began to leave the valley.
Only after flying for a while longer and confirming that he was completely safe did Mo Qingyun stop. He said, "Based on the situation before, there's probably quite a few old monsters like Chen Yiche in the Sacred Medicine Valley. I have to be extremely careful."
He did not want to be hunted down by another old monster when he went to the next place to gather herbs.
Mo Qingyun thought about it for a moment. Then, he took out the pill recipe and chose the next place to go.
Very soon, Mo Qingyun chose a place. He stowed the pill recipe away and continued on his way.
While Mo Qingyun was hurrying along, his mind was also pondering. He thought of a terrifying situation, and he exclaimed in shock, "If those old monsters possess bodies and change their bodies, wouldn't they also be able to participate in the alchemist trials?"
Thinking of this, Mo Qingyun's brows furrowed tightly, and his mood suddenly became much heavier. "These old fellows have cultivated here for countless years, so their alchemy skills must be very amazing. If they participate in the alchemy competition, I'm afraid it won't be difficult for them to refine Seven-Star Immortal Pills."
When Mo Qingyun thought of this, a joyful expression appeared on his face. He said in a low voice, "Fortunately, I chose the pill formula of the Seven Star Celestial Pill. Otherwise, let alone the first place in the Alchemy Master Trial, I'm afraid that even the top ten would be extremely unlikely."
Judging from the current situation, these old fellows who had stayed in the Sacred Medicine Valley for a long time must have at least a seven-star alchemist.
Perhaps, some of them might even have reached the level of 8-star pill forging.
If this was really the case, then there would be no suspense in the competition if the grade of the pill formula was not limited.
Even if the grade of the pill formula was restricted, if Mo Qingyun chose a six-star immortal pill, the result would still be the same.
It was obvious that the top ten spots in this alchemist trial would be monopolized by those old fellows.
"Up ahead is the Asura River, the place where the Asura's Kiss grows."
Mo Qingyun flew for a while before an endless river appeared in front of him.
The Asura River was not very wide. It was only about tens of thousands of miles long, but it was very long.
Even with Mo Qingyun's eyesight, he could not see the end of the Great Asura River as far as the eye could see.
"According to the map of the pill formula, the Asura's Kiss grows in the lower reaches of the Asura River. It should be in this direction."
After identifying the location of the Asura's Kiss, Mo Qingyun continued to follow the direction of the river in search of the Asura's Kiss.
As Mo Qingyun continued to fly, the Dark Qi emitted by the Asura River became denser and denser. The river water also became thicker and thicker.
"It seems like I'm going in the right direction."
Looking at the situation of the river below, Mo Qingyun had a clear idea of the direction he was heading in.
Following this, Mo Qingyun immediately increased his speed.
Mo Qingyun flew for the time it took to brew a cup of tea before a familiar figure suddenly appeared in his line of sight.
"Zuo Meng, she's here too. Is she also looking for the Asura's Kiss?"
After recognizing the figure in front of him, Mo Qingyun began to guess. However, he did not approach Zuo Meng rashly.
Zuo Meng wanted to kill him. If she found out, it would be very troublesome for him to collect the Asura's Kiss.
Following this, Mo Qingyun quietly followed behind Zuo Meng and slowly rushed towards the lower reaches of the Asura River.
After about half an hour, Zuo Meng came to a riverbank and stopped moving forward.
Seeing Zuo Meng stop, Mo Qingyun's expression tensed up. He was curious about Zuo Meng's actions.
Under Mo Qingyun's gaze, Zuo Meng quickly formed a hand seal and blasted it towards a rock on the riverbank.
Boom boom boom …
When Zuo Meng's hand seal landed on the rock, it immediately shook violently as if an earthquake was about to happen.
Following this, a huge gully appeared on the riverbank.
As soon as the gully appeared, black tentacles as thick as buckets stretched out from it.
"This …"
Seeing this scene, Mo Qingyun was shocked and his expression turned grave.
This kind of situation was really beyond his expectations.
He would never have thought that such a terrifying existence was hidden at the bottom of the riverbank.
More importantly, Zuo Meng's actions clearly showed that she was here to release this existence.
"Who is this Zuo Meng? How is she so familiar with the Sacred Medicine Valley?"
Mo Qingyun knew very well that if Zuo Meng was not familiar with the Sacred Medicine Valley, she would not have found this place directly.
While Mo Qingyun was puzzled, the gully in front of the riverbank grew bigger and bigger. Gradually, the scene inside could be seen clearly.
In this gully, there were four or five octopus-like monsters that were trapped by strange chain-like runes.
Glancing at the scene inside the gully, Mo Qingyun made a rough count. There were a total of four octopus-like monsters.
Each of these four octopus-like monsters was very powerful and was at the seventh level of the Nine Heavens Xuan Immortal Realm.
"Four ancestors of the Luo Clan, how can I save you?"
Looking at the four octopus-like monsters below, Zuo Meng showed a respectful expression and asked them.
Upon hearing Zuo Meng's words, the biggest of the four octopus-like monsters said in a strange tone, "There is a green bead above our heads. You only need to take that bead away and the four of us will naturally be able to come out."
"Yes!"
Hearing the octopus-like monster's words, Zuo Meng did not dare to hesitate and immediately took the green bead.
Under Zuo Meng's control, the green bead slowly flew out of the gully.
After a while, the green bead fell into Zuo Meng's hand and emitted emerald green light.
"Haha, we can finally come out!"
Without the suppression of the green bead, the four octopus-like monsters immediately laughed and said complacent words.
