"Slash!"
Liu Ming let out a low shout and shot out a technique.
The golden bead spun in the air, and with a flash, it transformed into a small golden sword. With a blur, it disappeared into thin air.
The Scarlet Flame Behemoth saw this and a trace of fear flashed in its huge copper bell-like eyes. Its figure moved to escape into the distance, but it was obviously too late.
At the Crimson Flame Beast's neck, a barely audible golden sword Qi suddenly appeared, circling around the beast's neck at lightning speed.
The next moment, the golden sword Qi condensed back into a golden bead and disappeared without a trace, as if it had never been there.
The Scarlet Flame Behemoth's neck tilted and its huge head fell to the ground. A huge pillar of blood shot up into the sky.
The beast's huge body swayed and the next moment, it fell heavily to the ground. Even its spirit had no time to escape before it was destroyed by the sharp sword Qi of the Void Sword Pill.
In the Nether Domain, the Qilin phantom let out a roar of unwillingness and burst open, turning into a huge torrent of Yuan Qi.
The surrounding black light also burst open with a loud bang.
Liu Ming waved his hand and shot out several techniques. The twelve Ghost Kings of the Nether River flashed and turned back into the Bead of Mountains and Rivers. Then, a red bead flashed out of the Scarlet Flame Behemoth's corpse and flew into his hand.
It was the beast's Monster Core.
Suddenly, an abnormally hot aura swept out in all directions from the bead, causing the surrounding temperature to rise by quite a bit.
"The Monster Core of the Scarlet Flame Beast, this trip was not in vain!" Lan Si's face was a little pale as she looked at the bead in Liu Ming's hand and blurted out.
On the side, Xue Long's expression also changed, but she did not make any other moves.
At this moment, Liu Ming suddenly asked, "Does Fellow Xue Long have any other materials for refining the Scarlet Flame Pill?"
"What do you want these materials for now?" Xue Long frowned.
"Brother Liu, could it be that you want to refine the Scarlet Flame Pill now?" Lan Si asked in surprise.
"Not bad. Although this Monster Core contains a trace of the Celestial Phenomenon Scarlet Flame Monster's Life Fire, I can feel that the Demonic Fire has gradually weakened since the moment the Monster Core died. If I wait for ten days to half a month, even if I can still refine the Scarlet Flame Pill, I'm afraid the effects will be greatly reduced, "Liu Ming said indifferently.
"There's such a thing!" Lan Si was shocked and turned to look at Xue Long.
Xue Long's face was also full of surprise. Obviously, she was also surprised by this, but when she released her Divine Thought to scan the object in Liu Ming's hand, she realized something. She stared at the bead and didn't speak for a long time.
Liu Ming held the Demon Core with one hand, his face expressionless.
After an unknown period of time, the woman gritted her teeth and finally asked, "What are your chances of success if you refine here?"
"Fifty percent," Liu Ming replied without hesitation.
With his current attainments in alchemy, even if it was his first time refining this pill, his chances of success were at least twenty to thirty percent. In addition, he had the Liushen Cauldron, and the raw materials were the freshest without any loss of spirituality. Saying fifty percent was actually very conservative.
When Xue Long heard this, although there was nothing on her face, she was shocked.
"Okay, I'll believe you this time."
After thinking quickly in her mind, she finally stomped her feet, took out a delicate blood-colored leather bag from the storage bracelet, and threw it to Liu Ming.
Liu Ming took the leather bag and put it away along with the Scarlet Flame Beast's Monster Core without even looking.
In the following time, the three immediately found a relatively hidden place in the volcano range and opened up two adjacent cave mansions.
Liu Ming asked the two women to heal in one of the cave mansions while paying attention to the surrounding movements. After he reminded them not to disturb him, he entered the other cave mansion.
He took out all the tools in his hand and set up several small arrays in the cave. After completely sealing the cave entrance, he summoned Scorpion from the Yin Gourd and ordered it to guard him.
After doing all this, Liu Ming sat cross-legged in the cave. He took out the recipe of refining the Scarlet Flame Pill from Xue Long and carefully checked the materials in his hand again. After confirming that there were no omissions, he took out a ten meters high emerald green cauldron from the Sumeru Ring.
… …
More than ten days passed in a flash.
At the entrance of the cave mansion where Liu Ming was, two slender figures were standing side by side, talking to each other.
"Lan Si, do you think this Liu Ming failed in refining, so he doesn't dare to come out to see us? It's been so long and there's no movement from inside. It's really worrying. Even if the refining failed, he should come out and admit his mistake. I am the dignified young master of the Blood Vine Clan, why would I care about a trivial Scarlet Flame Beast Monster Core! "
The one who spoke was naturally Xue Long.
At this time, her face had already returned to normal. Obviously, her injuries had already healed. At this moment, she was blocked outside the cave mansion by the enchantment that Liu Ming had set up. Her Divine Sense couldn't explore it at all. She seemed to be very anxious.
"Sister Xue, with my understanding of Liu, if he promised, he will definitely do it. Since he hasn't come out yet, it means that the refining is still in progress. Let's wait a little longer. "Lan Si comforted.
"It's been a full 12 days. Maybe he has gone crazy in the refining. Let's break the enchantment and have a look. Maybe we can save his little life." Xue Long's big eyes turned and said something that made Lan Si not know whether to laugh or cry.
"Sister Xue, when Liu entered the cave, he repeatedly warned us not to disturb his pill refining. If he is at a critical juncture … "Lan Si didn't know what to do with the princess of the Blood Vine Clan, so she could only tactfully explain.
When Xue Long heard this, her hand that had just reached out stopped in mid-air. Then, she reluctantly withdrew it.
At this moment, a soft sound came from the entrance of the cave that Liu Ming was in. The black mist that originally sealed the entrance of the cave tumbled and a cyan figure came out. He stopped in front of the two women.
The black mist disappeared, revealing that it was Liu Ming.
His expression was slightly haggard, but there was a hint of excitement between his eyebrows.
"Fellow Liu, you … you came out." Seeing this, Lan Si said with a happy expression.
"I came out, but it's hard to say whether the pill has been refined successfully." Xue Long snorted.
"Hehe, I was fortunate enough to not disappoint you." Liu Ming laughed nonchalantly and a jade box appeared in his hand with a flash of white light. Inside were four crimson red pills that emitted bursts of rich spirit Qi.
"These are Scarlet Flame Pills!" Lan Si's eyes lit up when he saw the four pills and he blurted out.
Xue Long was also slightly startled at this moment and looked at Liu Ming in disbelief.
Liu Ming didn't say anything and raised his hand. Two of the crimson red pills floated out of the jade box and flew toward Xue Long and Lan Si.
Just as the two women reached out to receive the pills, Liu Ming's indifferent voice sounded, "Do you have any problems with this distribution?"
Lan Si naturally had no problems with this distribution.
Although Xue Long was a little reluctant, Liu Ming had contributed the most in killing the Scarlet Flame Beast. Now that he had personally refined the pills, she naturally couldn't make any more requests.
The two women glanced at each other, both of them looking happy.
Since the purpose of this trip had been achieved, the three of them didn't stay any longer. They immediately left the Purgatory Mountain Range and boarded Xue Long's Bi Fang Flying Carriage, flying in the direction of Luo City.
… …
Ten days later, in a square not far from the west gate of Luo City.
Liu Ming bid farewell to Xue Long and Lan Si and immediately headed in the direction of the Small World Garden's Exhibition Pavilion.
A moment later, he arrived at the destination of this trip.
At this moment, there were not many people in the hall. Liu Ming came to the Exhibition Wall not far away with great familiarity.
The tasks on the Exhibition Wall were arranged according to the reward. At this moment, the search task for the location of the Cold Fragrance Whale was displayed at the front.
It seemed that since the day it was issued, no one had accepted it.
Liu Ming shook his head helplessly. He didn't think too much about it and turned to leave the hall, flying in the direction of the cave residence.
As a result, as soon as he entered the cave, he didn't see Qian Ruping coming out to greet him. Instead, there was a faint movement in the secret room, and there were bursts of strange fluctuations coming from it.
As soon as Liu Ming thought about it, a hint of realization flashed on his face.
From various signs, it was obvious that Qian Ruping's opportunity to break through to the Crystallization Period was coming!
He immediately retracted his Divine Thought, and he immediately added some enchantments around the secret room to avoid disturbing Qian Ruping, who was cultivating behind closed doors.
After doing all this, Liu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, then he returned to his secret room with a peace of mind and fell asleep on the bed.
He had been on a bumpy journey for more than a month, plus refining elixir had consumed too much physical and mental energy. He urgently needed to rest to restore his physical strength.
The night was uneventful.
The next day, the sky was just bright. Just as Liu Ming was about to go to the fire room to refine elixir, the enchantment outside the cave house suddenly fluctuated.
"Hey, why is she here!"
After Liu Ming scanned outside with Divine Thought, he frowned.
He walked slowly to the door and opened the door with a wave of his sleeves.
Outside the door stood a stunning girl with fluttering red hair in a gorgeous red dress. It was Xue Long.
It was just that at this moment, she had changed back to a woman's dress. Compared with her previous disguise as a man, she had a different charm.
"Mr. Xue Long, why did you come to my house this time?" Liu Ming looked behind the woman blankly. After finding no one else, he said faintly.
"Why, Liu doesn't welcome me? Did you forget about the vajra bone tempering pill? "Xue Long stood with her hands behind her back and said sweetly.
"Mr. Xue must be joking. It is my honor that the young master of the Blood Vine Clan can visit my house. Please come in and have a chat. " When Liu Ming heard that it was for alchemy, he naturally wouldn't object. He made a gesture of invitation and said slowly.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony." After Xue Long casually returned a bow, she swaggered into the hall of the cave house and sat down at a round table.
After the woman casually looked around, she swept a hand across the table in front of her. After a blood-red glow, a large number of brocade boxes of different colors appeared. She looked at Liu Ming and said:
"Liu, these are all good materials for refining the vajra bone tempering pill. As long as you can refine the elixir as promised, I will naturally keep my promise."
