Inside the Black Pond.
The thick black Qi lingering on the surface of the pool churned like a clump of clouds. As it slowly squirmed, a large amount of it gathered at the bottom.
On the surface of the black water, Zuo Shi's small face was filled with pain. She was trying her best to take in the thick black air. Her aura was getting stronger.
Streaks of black lightning shot down from the surface of the pond and struck Zuo Shi's body, drilling into her delicate body.
Xuanming emerged from the pond in his human form. Both of his hands were constantly pulling and twisting the power of heaven and earth, grabbing the lightning strikes and clouds, pouring them into Zuo Shi's body.
Six hours later, the pain on Zuo Shi's face eased up. She looked happy, dancing on the surface of the pond.
After another hour, Zuo Shi's face was pure and holy. She chuckled and said, "It's done!"
Xuanming's turtle shell face beamed a satisfied smile. He nodded and said, "Little girl, your innate talents are unparalleled. If you concentrate on your cultivation, your achievement in the future will be immeasurable. Anyway, you're too naughty. You've met me too late. Otherwise, you would have reached the True God Realm. "
"Why do I need so much power?" Zuo Shi snorted, speaking disdainfully. "Cultivating is the most boring thing. My old teacher urges me every day. It's so annoying. You're even more troublesome than that old man Chi Xiao. You force me. I hate you so much."
Xuanming shook his head with a forced smile. "In this land, I don't know how many people want to get my favor. Look at you. I've tried my best to help you, but I don't get any benefit. You blame me every day. Life is so hard. "
"Harrumph," Zuo Shi didn't care about him. "I've reached the Spirit Realm. Can you let me go now?"
"No!" Xuanming's face became serious. "It's the most complicated time there. If you go there, you will be involved."
While speaking, Xuanming suddenly snorted coldly and said in a loud voice, "All of you, come out!"
By the black pond, Fiery Dragon, Xue Lie, Nine-headed Bird, Glacial Armor Giant Alligator, and Silver-winged Sky Wolf appeared. Each of them was hundreds of meters long, looking at him with longing eyes.
"Boss Xuanming, why did you call us over?" The Glacial Armor Giant Crocodile snorted. As it spoke, an extremely cold mist came out of its mouth and spread out.
"I'm still lacking a suitable weapon. I was just about to chase after that brat to ask for it. Boss Xuanming, if there's nothing else, can I leave first?" The Silver-winged Heavenly Wolf also shouted impatiently.
"A bunch of idiots!" Xuanming blew his beard and glared at them. "If I didn't care about you, you would have been killed by that brat. You wouldn't even know what happened when you were sold by him."
Fiery liquid scales on Fiery Dragon's entire body shivered. He shouted indignantly, "Boss Xuanming, don't talk nonsense, okay? Shi Yan treats us well. He has helped us quench our bodies and forge our weapons. He's not an ordinary human. "
Xue Lie and Nine-headed Bird nodded in agreement. They all said that Shi Yan had treated them well. Surprisingly, they all sided with Shi Yan.
"Idiots, idiots." Xuanming shook his head continually, his face sad. "My life is so hard. I have to take care of a bunch of idiots like you. Sigh, it's so annoying. So annoying!"
"Xuanming old man, you said that there's danger over there. What do you mean?" Zuo Shi's face suddenly became serious, her bold brows furrowing. "My grandpa and the others are in danger? Tell me clearly. "
"I'll tell you all at the same time." Xuanming snorted. "Those fellows of the seven ancient factions want to attack those humans. I think they will do it within ten days or half a month max."
Listening to him, Zuo Shi's small face paled. She screamed immediately. "I want to go back! I have to go back! "
"You're not allowed to go back!" Xuanming rolled his eyes at her. "Do you want to go there to die? Let alone the fact that you've just reached the Spirit Realm, even if you've reached the True God Realm, you will still die there! The foundation of those fellows of the seven ancient factions isn't something you can imagine. They have at least ten True God Realm warriors. What can you do there? "
"No! I want to go back! Xuanming old man, if you dare to stop me, I … I will hate you for the rest of my life! "screamed Zuo Shi.
Fiery Dragon, Xue Lie, and Nine-headed Bird, the leaders of the Monster Clan, got it when they heard Xuanming. They quieted down.
"Let me explain first." Xuanming snorted with a solemn face. "This is the internal conflict of the Human Clan. You just need to help us a little bit to return the favor. You're not allowed to risk your life for me. In this Perpetual Night Forest, our Monster Clan has a lot of offspring. We can't let them die because of the internal conflict of the Human Clan. Grow some brains. Don't scream and rush forward like fools! "
Nine-headed Bird, the Glacial Armor Giant Alligator, and the Silver-winged Sky Wolf didn't answer him.
Fiery Dragon shouted, "Shi Yan has helped us a lot. We should help him. And … if he dies, who will help us refine our bodies?"
"If all of you die, you don't need to refine your bodies anymore!" Xuanming rolled his eyes. "If anyone dares to act rashly, I will kick him out of the Perpetual Night Forest. He will never be allowed to come back!"
Listening to him, the five great masters of the Monster Clan kept quiet out of fear. Their eyes constantly changed.
"Old Xuanming, you have to help them. Otherwise, I will never cultivate with you. Even if you kill me, I won't cultivate with you!" Zuo Shi shouted stubbornly, her soft body shivering. "If something bad happens to my grandpa, I will hate you for the rest of my life!"
Xuanming got a headache. He scratched his stiff hair. "At most … I can bring the Zuo family's people here. I will keep them safe."
"No!" Zuo Shi shook her head resolutely. "Shi Yan has helped me. You have to save him too!"
"That kid has a big competence. I don't care about him. Harrumph, as soon as he comes to the Perpetual Night Forest, he has acted rashly. He doesn't understand the rules. He wants to avoid me and send a bunch of fools to their deaths. Save him? Impossible! "Xuanming shook his head continually.
Zuo Shi didn't say anything. She pouted her lips to show her discontent.
"My little ancestor, why do you care about that kid's life or death?" Xuanming had a headache. "Life is tough. Tell me, why should I help him? What does he have that makes me want to help him? "
"That year, when we were in the Quiet Cloud Land, he brought us to the Endless Sea and the Divine Great Land. Without him, I wouldn't have met you. Also, he helped me decipher the thing I got. Even Xuanwu's True Kang is thanks to him, "said Zuo Shi hurriedly.
Xuanming was surprised. He frowned. "Really? You're just talking nonsense, aren't you? "
"You're talking nonsense!" Zuo Shi grunted. "You can see through my thoughts. Why don't you see for yourself?"
Xuanming squinted. A beam of light flashed deep in his eyes, going straight to Zuo Shi's brain.
After a while, he contemplated, rubbed his chin and said, "Yeah, it's true. Hmm, let me think about it. Well, you've reached the Spirit Realm now. You should find another place to cultivate. If your progress is fast enough to satisfy me, I'll help that kid."
Zuo Shi's eyes brightened. "Really?"
"I'm old. Why would I fool a little girl like you?" Xuanming rolled his eyes, then mumbled with a bitter face. "These days … are really hard."
"Alright, I agree with you. But you have to help me!" Zuo Shi's small face was filled with contentment. "It's just cultivation. I'm not good at anything else, but this is my specialty. Haha."
"Hey, Xuanming bro, what about us?" The group of Monster Clan's Great Seniors looked at him, waiting for his decision.
"Wait for my order. You guys can help them do something. But without my order, don't be hot-blooded and rush to kill. Got it? " Xuanming snorted and then cursed. "All of you are idiots. The Great Fission has happened, but you're still so stupid. Sigh, these days are really hard."
As Fiery Dragon and Blood-maned saw that the situation had changed, they didn't linger. They moved their giant bodies and left the Black Pond.
Waiting until all of them had left, Xuanming opened his mouth and sucked in the thick black mist hovering above the Black Pond.
Then, he waved his hand, using the black mist to cover Zuo Shi. They disappeared in just a blink of an eye, heading to another special area of the Perpetual Night Forest where Zuo Shi could break through faster.
…
Inside the Creator's Divine Pond …
Li Zheng Rong slowly woke up. His eyes were like stars, his spirit like lightning. His aura was vast and distant.
"Ah, that little girl Bing Qing Tong?" He turned around to look at the Creator's Divine Pond behind him. He couldn't help but exclaim. Then, he talked to Shi Yan. "What's wrong? You look distressed. What's the problem? "
"The seven ancient factions are about to take action," sighed Shi Yan.
Li Zheng Rong's face suddenly became heavy.
He knew how dangerous the seven ancient factions were. He knew how dangerous they would be when they took action. He also understood that with Shi Yan's current competence, it would be tough to deal with them.
"Have you found a solution?" He frowned.
Shi Yan shook his head.
Li Zheng Rong contemplated for a while and then said, "You said that you got the Upanishad of a blacksmith. Can you do that?"
"Refine treasures?" Shi Yan shook his head, beaming a forced smile. "It's too late. Some treasures can't change the big picture."
"I'm not talking about refining treasures," Li Zheng Rong's face was serious. "I'm talking about … formations? I remember in the Antiquity Time, there were many powerful formations that could even kill King God Realm warriors. "
Shi Yan's eyes brightened. He was shaken hard as he jolted up from his seat.
He was astounded for a while, as if he was searching for the information in his head. After a while, he beamed a forced smile. "It's hard. The Monster Clan has enough materials, but it's a big project. We can't finish it in a short time. "
"What if the Monster Clan helps us?" Li Zheng Rong reminded him. "As far as I know, with the giant bodies of the Monster Clan, if they help us with all of their strength, many big projects will be easy."
Shi Yan was shaken. Divine light shot out from his eyes as he burst out laughing. "Old Li, you're extraordinary. We can try this method! Thank you, Old Li. Haha … Not bad, not bad. With the help of the Monster Clan, those ancient formations, which look like they can't build in a short time, can be done quickly! "
The problem that had troubled him for a long time finally had a glimmer of hope under Li Zheng Rong's reminder.
