"This …"
The person looked very troubled and said, "My master is in seclusion."
"We're urgently waiting for Grandmaster Mao to save us. We really can't afford any delays," Xiao Lingyu said earnestly.
The person had already seen Xiao Lingyu holding someone in his arms. Now that he heard Xiao Lingyu's words, he understood. However, he still looked troubled.
"I've heard of Grandmaster Mao's benevolence. You wouldn't leave us in the lurch, right?" Xiao Lingyu continued.
"Of course I wouldn't leave you in the lurch. However, my master's seclusion this time is very important. Before he went into seclusion, he instructed us not to knock on his door unless the Wondrous Pill Sect is facing a calamity," the person said helplessly.
"I know I came here abruptly, and I don't want to disturb the Great Grandmaster's closed-door practice. However, I have no other choice. Please let the Great Grandmaster know. I will accept any conditions the Great Grandmaster has and do my best to fulfill them," Xiao Lingyu said sincerely.
"This old man can vouch for you as well," Elder Peng agreed.
"That won't do. As my master's disciple, I don't dare to disobey my master's orders. Please return. Perhaps there's another way." The person shook his head.
"Please let me know first," Xiao Lingyu insisted with a pleading expression.
Mao Zhen was the only alchemy grandmaster in the entire Immortal World who could refine divine pills. Who else could Xiao Lingyu ask for help? What other way could he come up with?
"The two of you, please return."
Who would have thought that after the person said that, he would shake his fist and turn around to leave.
"Sigh!"
Elder Peng could only sigh.
However, Xiao Lingyu's expression darkened. After a cold snort, he took a step forward with Qing Xuan in his arms.
"Senior, please wait!" One of the children hurriedly stopped him.
However, Xiao Lingyu turned a deaf ear to him. He took another step forward and entered the valley.
The person who had greeted Qin Nan previously turned around and said, "What are you trying to do? This is the Wonderful Pill Sect. You better not barge in, or else …"
Before the person could finish speaking, Xiao Lingyu's hand had already wrapped around his neck. A wave of Chaos Magic directly poured into the person's body, instantly imprisoning him.
"So what if it's the Wondrous Pill Sect? I'm not afraid even if I have to go against the entire Immortal World, let alone a mere Wondrous Pill School! "
Xiao Lingyu laughed coldly and continued, "Bring me to the place where Grandmaster Mao is in closed-door seclusion. Otherwise … die!"
In fact, Elder Peng was also very angry. Although he felt that it was a little inappropriate to see Xiao Lingyu flipping out at this moment and it might cause a lot of trouble, he did not stop her or persuade her.
The person's face turned red from Xiao Lingyu's choking. He was also an early-stage Immortal Emperor expert. Earlier, he did not expect Xiao Lingyu to dare to attack him. Moreover, he did not expect Xiao Lingyu to be able to imprison his cultivation in an instant. At this moment, his eyes were wide open. Seeing how agitated Xiao Lingyu was, he was afraid and nodded repeatedly.
Xiao Lingyu's expression was grave and stern as he released his hand. However, he did not release the person and only let him lead the way.
After a few steps, a few more cultivators from the Wondrous Pill Sect surrounded them. However, most of them were below the Immortal Emperor Stage.
There were not many disciples in the Wondrous Pill Sect. This was because their requirements for recruiting disciples were very strict. They had to have the aptitude to become an Alchemy Grandmaster or Grandmaster before they could join. The entire valley was very empty. After such a big commotion, only a few disciples of the Wondrous Pill Sect had rushed over. Moreover, no one dared to make a move.
The cultivator who was imprisoned by Xiao Lingyu did not dare to stop. He slowly walked forward and at the same time, he signaled to his fellow sect members with his eyes.
After moving forward for a short distance, a white-haired old man who looked a little old blocked the way.
"Let him go!" The white-haired old man said with a dignified expression. Moreover, his voice carried an extremely powerful soul fluctuation, causing Elder Peng to frown slightly.
The white-haired old man's cultivation was very high and his attainments in the soul were quite profound. Unfortunately, his soul sound wave attack was not very effective against Xiao Lingyu. This was because the sound wave attack was directed at Xiao Lingyu's sea of consciousness and was immediately absorbed by the grayish-black metal piece in his sea of consciousness.
"Call Grandmaster Mao out and I'll let him go," Xiao Lingyu said calmly.
"If you don't want to be hunted down by the Immortal World's Celestial Sovereigns, it's better for you to let him go first," the white-haired old man said without backing down.
"Hmph! Don't use the Celestial Sovereigns to scare me. To tell you the truth, even a Celestial Sovereign can't do anything to me! "
Xiao Lingyu replied coldly. Then, a purplish-black flame appeared in the palm of his hand. He continued, "If Grandmaster Mao doesn't come out in ten minutes, I'll turn him into ashes first!"
As soon as the purplish-black flame appeared, it caused the space to fluctuate violently. Fine spatial cracks had already appeared. The white-haired old man's expression changed greatly. This was because he, who had an extremely high soul realm, could see that the purplish-black flame was very powerful. It was even stronger than ordinary divine flames. At this moment, it was only suppressed and did not erupt with too much power.
In the Immortal World, there were very few experts who could control such a powerful flame at will. It was reasonable for the white-haired old man to be moved.
"Peng Yi, what is the meaning of this?"
Seeing that his threat to Xiao Lingyu was ineffective, the white-haired old man questioned Elder Peng.
"Nothing. It's just that Grandmaster Mao is too arrogant and too difficult to invite, so we have no other choice." Elder Peng sneered.
"Do you still expect Senior Brother Mao to come out and help you?" The white-haired old man asked.
"If we don't do this, we won't even see Grandmaster Mao's face." Xiao Lingyu continued.
"Fellow Daoist, let him go first. If there's anything, we can talk about it. Using force won't solve the problem." The white-haired old man was no longer as dignified as before.
"I'll say it again. Ask Grandmaster Mao to come out and I'll let him go." Xiao Lingyu insisted.
The white-haired old man's expression changed again and again. Finally, he said, "Okay, I'll ask Senior Brother Mao to come out!"
"Go and come back quickly. My patience is not very good." Xiao Lingyu replied indifferently.
The white-haired old man did not delay and immediately turned to leave.
After a full hour, seeing that Xiao Lingyu's patience was about to be worn out, the white-haired old man came over with a skinny old man.
The old man's face was withered and his back was slightly hunched. He was supporting himself with a dragon-headed walking stick. At this moment, his face was malicious.
"Peng Bai, you captured my disciple to threaten me. This is not the demeanor of a Grandmaster." The skinny old man stood still and said calmly.
"Mao Zhen, don't pretend. Those demeanors are for the world to see. Everyone is not much different from ordinary Immortals except for some special methods. Why do you have to pretend to be an otherworldly expert?" Elder Peng said calmly.
"Fellow Daoist, let my disciple go. I can help you refine the divine pill, but you have to agree to the conditions. Also, you have to prepare the materials yourself." Mao Zhen was still very calm.
Xiao Lingyu's heart moved. He withdrew his chaotic demonic power from the early-stage Immortal Emperor and said, "What conditions does Elder Mao have?"
"A Devil Dao cultivator?!"
Mao Zhen frowned when he felt the aura of the chaotic demonic power. However, he did not delve into it. He only felt that it was a little strange that someone in the Immortal World could cultivate the Devil Dao to such a high level.
"First condition, you have to be like other Immortal World experts. You have to acknowledge and help maintain the control of our Wondrous Pill Sect over the Fragrance Continent.
"Second condition, this old man's cultivation was interrupted by Fellow Daoist and was forced to come out of seclusion. Fellow Daoist, you have to compensate me with a divine tool or ten thousand divine stones.
"Third condition, go to the Myriad Bat Cave and bring back a King Bodhi Pill."
Mao Zhen didn't even need to think before stating the three conditions.
The first condition was actually something that could be done with just a few words. However, the other two conditions were not easy to fulfill.
"Mao Zhen, don't go too far. You're just helping me refine a divine pill, yet you want a finished divine artifact. You even want a King Bodhi that you don't even know if it exists. Aren't you opening your lion's mouth a little too big?" Elder Peng replied with a little anger.
"Hehe, I didn't beg you to come. If you think the conditions are too harsh, you can find someone else." Mao Zhen laughed fearlessly.
"Elder Mao, can you confirm whether the King Bodhi Pill really exists in the Myriad Bat Cave?" Xiao Lingyu asked after a moment of silence.
"Yes." Mao Zhen nodded.
"Good, I agree to all three conditions."
Xiao Lingyu nodded solemnly. He then took out the transparent scimitar that he had obtained from Great Thief Nie Yu and said, "This is a divine tool. As for the King Bodhi Pill, I will go to the Myriad Bat Cave to look for it later."
Elder Peng wanted to say something, but he did not know what to say. He could only shake his head helplessly.
Mao Zhen directly took the scimitar from Xiao Lingyu's hand. After looking at it for a while, he said with satisfaction, "Not bad. Although it is a low-grade divine tool, it has some special effects."
Then, Mao Zhen gave the scimitar to the early-stage Immortal Emperor disciple in front of everyone.
"It has always been me who snatches other people's treasures. Today, I will leave this scimitar here. In the future, I will make you pay me back double!"
Xiao Lingyu was naturally unhappy that he had been taken advantage of. However, he needed Mao Zhen's cooperation in order to save Qing Xuan, so he still had to endure it.
"If you head southeast, you'll find the Myriad Bat Cave in about five million kilometers. What I want to remind you is that the Myriad Bat Cave is extremely dangerous. You must be careful." Mao Zhen pretended to remind him.
Xiao Lingyu handed Qing Xuan to Elder Peng and said, "Help me take care of her."
Elder Peng had originally wanted to tag along, but he no longer had his Divine Flame. His identity as a great grandmaster artificer was of no use in the face of danger. Moreover, it was impossible for him to bring Qingxuan along, and it was also impossible for him to leave Qingxuan behind by herself. He could only nod and say, "Brother Xiao, don't worry!"
Xiao Lingyu looked at Qing Xuan again. Then, he jumped up and went to the Myriad Bat Cave alone.
"Mao Zhen, let's take a look at her situation first. What materials are needed to refine a Spirit Congealing Pill for her soul characteristics?"
After Xiao Lingyu left, Elder Peng opened a hole in the white silk wrapped around Qing Xuan and said to Mao Zhen.
