This is not how immortals cultivate

Chapter 172 Pay attention, the man in front of you is called Xiao Shuai

The second floor of the cabin.

Xiang Yuan had a thorough understanding of Yin Mu, this vicious woman. Of the three storage rooms, which were neither big nor small, two were filled with poisonous insects in sealed containers, some of which were being fed with poisonous herbs, and some were being kept in one place for refining poison.

The last room is the insect breeding room, which contains four human-shaped treasure bags, ranging from dried to fresh.

I won’t describe the specific scene, it’s full of holes and it makes one’s scalp numb. No matter if you are a claustrophobic patient or not, you will not be able to eat for three days after just one look at it.

Xiang Yuan walked away from the three storage rooms and entered a room that was a combination of a study and bedroom. There were two shelves, one filled with bottles and cans, and a large amount of medicine powder that had not yet been processed. The other was neatly arranged with books, including a map of southern Xinjiang that divided the various factions, the Five Poison Sect's method of making poison, and the Cloud Chanting Green Smoke Palm secret book that Xiang Yuan wanted.

After trying it, I found that the Wuxiang Seal Method can indeed be simulated, but this set of palm techniques has other requirements for the user.

Good at using poison, or possessing highly poisonous true qi.

The Sanyin Qi is not working, it's too poisonous.

Without the combination of highly toxic true qi, the Cloud-Covered Green Smoke Palm cannot entangle the smoke. The palm suddenly goes up to the clouds, suddenly sinks into the valley, and moves flexibly. It is beautiful, but it manipulates the clouds and mist into various wonderful shapes, which is a bit like driving a car.

"Oh no, Senior Sister Bai Yue has led me astray!"

Xiang Yuan beat his chest and stamped his feet. He reflected on himself three times a day. He was not wrong. It was all Senior Sister Bai Yue and Chen Wen's fault that people were greedy.

After practicing a set of Cloud-Channeling Green Smoke Palm, Xiang Yuan looked through the map of Southern Xinjiang and took away all the useful things. Then, according to the Encyclopedia of Poisons, he sent the corresponding finished poisons or powders into the Jade Disk Space one by one.

It is always good to have many skills, as they will come in handy one day.

For example, put some in the Bigu Pill one day and feed it to Zener to see how he reacts.

With this level of poison, Chan'er would not be harmed even if he took a bath, and he would not behave abnormally. Xiang Yuan's brain circuit would not consider these things. All he could think of was that he could not control Chan'er and could not make him lose nine pounds a day.

Just when Xiang Yuan was feeling deeply sorry for Chaner, the door of the wooden house downstairs was pushed open and two footsteps walked in.

He had sharp ears and eyes and heard it clearly, but he didn't take it to heart at first. Since Shi Chengshan didn't show up, Yin Mu was the leader here, and it was normal for her to report her work.

It was not until one of them spoke that Xiang Yuan frowned and listened.

In front of Yin Mu stood two men, one tall and one short. Both were of plain appearance. The short man clasped his hands together and said, "My Lord, this matter is related to Earth Dragon Fort."

what? !

Xiang Yuan was stunned for a moment. It sounded so familiar, as if he had said it two hours ago.

Coincidence or accident?

Xiang Yuan didn't say anything, but Yin Mu said "Ah", frowned and looked at the two of them: "What do you want to say? Did the two innate elders of my Five Poison Sect die in the Earth Dragon Castle?"

"Does the lord know?" The short man was stunned.

"Yes, Elder Xue, I have heard about this a long time ago. Do you have anything else to say?"

"..." x2
The two men were silent. The tall man glared fiercely, and the short man said hurriedly, "There is one more thing. Chang Chunming, the fourth master of Dilongbao, is also dead. He was the person in charge of our Five Poison Sect in Dilongbao. Without him, it will be even more difficult for the Five Poison Sect to seize mineral resources in Dilongbao."

"These things are not something you are qualified to know."

Yin Mu frowned, turned his hand and slapped out with a palm. A poisonous cloud enveloped the two men, choking the tall man and making him faint. The short man staggered as if he was drunk.

The scene is more familiar.

Yin Mu knew that Xiang Yuan was paying attention to this place, so he stepped forward and used his old tricks again, using his not-so-clever charm: "Tell me, where did you overhear this information from, and what else do you know?"

As the black light came, Yin Mu vaguely saw six black walls surrounding her from the front, back, left, right, up and down directions, like a black coffin that locked her tightly inside.

The camera turned and saw two men sitting on chairs with Yin Mu standing obediently in front of them.

Xiang Yuan: (_)
Zener is unreliable. Where is the exclusive secret that was promised to him? Before he could even sit down, the chair was taken away by someone.

Fortunately, the problem was not serious. The switch in Yin Mu's brain was still on. He let the yellow-haired man be proud for a moment. Finally, this victim took off his wig. The Super Saiyan 3 hairstyle was simply the best among the yellow-haired men.

Xiang Yuan's thoughts were jumping around. On one hand, he was planning to have the minotaur hit with an axe, on the other hand, he was holding his breath and eavesdropping on the conversation downstairs. He had the breath-concealing technique taught by Xiao Lingyue, so he was not worried that his breath would be detected by the two thieves downstairs.

"Brother Li, you have great skills. You subdued the evil woman from the Five Poison Sect very easily." The tall man said with a smile.

"Brother Wang Hu, my methods are not worthy of being mentioned above. I can only say that the witch's methods are low-level. If you really want to play with people's hearts, the skills of the Illusionary Dao are better."

"Hahaha, you Soul Guardians are pretty good too. I hope Brother Li can help me with this treasure hunt and share some soup with me to satisfy my craving."

"My dear brother, you are joking again. You are very capable and I should rely on you."

"Hahaha————" x2
After the two men carried the sedan chair, the short man who called himself Li Banshan wiped his face and took off the human skin mask, revealing a snow-white and clean face of a young man. His body swelled up, and after a crackling sound of popping beans, he revealed a handsome man with an elegant appearance.

Wang Hu then took off the human skin mask, and his body grew taller, revealing a sturdy man with a rough face, a broad back and strong arms.

Not much different from before.

The two men revealed their true colors and smiled at each other. Li Banshan said to Yin Mu, "Tell me quickly, what is the mystery of this sacrificial place, what treasure is buried, and why are you acting so low-key?"

Li Banshan comes from the Soul Guarding Sect, one of the eight evil sects. It is a tomb-robbing sect that always brings up other people's uncles. Everyone in the righteous way hates it, and the evil way doesn't tolerate it either.

Wang Hu was a friend he met in southern Xinjiang. When he went to the tomb, he was caught by the other party. After a contest, he found that he was defeated by the other party. He had no choice but to swear an oath to cooperate with Wang Hu three times and go to the tomb together three times.

It's no good when tomb robbers encounter robbers.

The first two collaborations were pleasant, but nothing good was dug out. Wang Hu expressed his dissatisfaction, and Li Banshan had no choice but to lead him to Xiaozhima Mountain.

Li Banshan has been paying attention to Xiaozhima Mountain for some time and discovered that this place is a stronghold of the Five Poison Sect. It was a place for sacrifice in the early years, but for some reason, it was suddenly changed into a smuggling route. Every few days, a large amount of elixirs and spiritual herbs are delivered here.

It's strange if there's only money going in but no money going out.

Li Banshan's method of controlling the soul was far less clever than Xiang Yuan's. Yin Mu was unconscious, like a puppet. It took him a lot of time to think about a problem. After a long time, he explained that an elixir that was immune to all poisons was being refined in the underground palace.

In an instant, Wang Hu's eyes lit up, Li Banshan's body tensed up, and the atmosphere in the field became subtle.

"Hahaha, Brother Li, the deal is here."

"Brother Wang Hu, you are joking again. This is clearly your business. Just watch over it. Don't be modest."

Li Banshan gritted his teeth and said, "I suddenly remembered that I visited a few spots last year but never had the time to visit them. They are all large tombs. I would like to share them with you, brother."

"How can I do this? Brother Li, you are too polite. In that case, I will take the liberty to accept the offer and go around with you." Wang Hu laughed.

"You and I are brothers, we hit it off right away, so why not?"

Li Banshan breathed a sigh of relief and continued to ask Xiang Yinmu: "How is Shi Chengshan's cultivation?" "Innate stage."

"..." x2
Li Banshan and Wang Hu kept silent. They were also in the innate stage, so they could definitely win if they fought two against one. The only thing they were afraid of was that their teammates would suddenly stab them in the back.

"Elder Shi is a close confidant of the leader's wife. He rose to power by virtue of his excellent eloquence and good looks. His martial arts aptitude is not high, but he has a great talent in the way of alchemy. The leader's wife spent a lot of effort to train him to the Xiantian stage..."

Yin Mu explained Shi Chengshan's information in a wooden way, and added at the end that it was not under the control of the laws of heaven and earth.

"Hahaha----"

"Brother Li, God is helping me!"

"Congratulations, brother Wang Hu, for obtaining this elixir. You will be immune to all poisons and will have no worries in the future when you roam the southern border!"

"It's all thanks to Brother Li."

The two of them were very friendly and respectful to each other. They let Yin Mu lead the way and hurried to the underground palace to find Shi Chengshan. Yin Mu repeated what he had said to Xiang Yuan.

"We can't wait until tonight. We can kill him right now if he gets suspicious."

Wang Hu did not have Xiang Yuan's patience, and Li Banshan did not try to persuade him. He ordered Yin Mu to go down to the underground palace immediately without wasting a moment.

Yin Mu nodded blankly, and walked like a zombie to the wall where the skeletal organs were placed. He changed the position of a few bones, and a secret passage leading directly to the underground opened at the feet of Li Banshan and Wang Hu.

"That's clever."

Li Banshan nodded secretly and made a few comments out of professional habit.

He said to Wang Hu, "The witch walks in front, and you follow behind, Wang Hu, to prevent outsiders from disturbing you. I'll set up a bewilderment array so that if someone comes, I can hold them off for a while."

outsider?

Who are you, a outsider here? I think you are clearly trying to confuse me!
Wang Hu sneered in his heart and said that he couldn't wait any longer. He grabbed Li Banshan and Yin Mu's shoulders and jumped directly into the secret passage.

Xiang Yuan walked down the stairs slowly, looking at the secret passage, and said stiffly, "Look carefully, the man in front of you is called Xiao Shuai, and next to him is his accomplice Da Zhuang, and Xiao Mei who joined them halfway. They have discovered a treasure at this time, but they don't know that someone has already set their sights on them..."

The damn AI voice is attacking me again!

Xiang Yuan patted his head, pondered for a moment, and followed.

There is no room for two tigers in one mountain, let alone three. Today he is sure to be the oriole.

……

The underground palace under Xiaozhima Mountain was originally an underground altar carefully built by the Five Poisons Sect for worshiping evil gods, so there were no mechanisms or traps.

The stone path leads directly downwards, without twists and turns or hidden mysteries, symbolizing the firmness and piety of faith.

Wang Hu let Yin Mu lead the way and went about twenty feet underground along the stone path. In front of them was a wide platform with tight gaps between bricks and stones. In the center of the platform, the statue of the evil god was removed, and a huge sunken medicine pool was dug out.

The medicinal power inside was surging, sometimes white, sometimes dark, sometimes a raging fire, sometimes turning into frost, snow and fog. There was a light blue light shield above it, driven by a formation, to ensure that the medicinal power would not evaporate.

There may also be considerations of high temperature and high pressure. Xiang Yuan hasn't arrived yet, so he can't complain about it.

In front of the medicine pool, a handsome man in white was writing and drawing on the table, or calculating the time, or picking up herbs and throwing them into the medicine pool. His frown showed that the process of refining the elixir was not going smoothly.

Shi Chengshan didn't expect to succeed in making elixirs or anything like that, but the leader's wife had spent so much money and burned so many warehouses, so he had to produce some results, otherwise the leader's wife would suffer a huge loss and he would be skinned and turned into a bloody man.

"Strange, why can't the two medicinal powers merge? The intersection of yin and yang should be correct..."

"If it's because it's missing a carrier... Impossible. How can anything withstand such a fierce medicinal property? The only correct thing is to make a pill on its own."

Shi Chengshan muttered to himself that 20% of his rise to the top was due to his eloquence and hard work, and the remaining 80% was due to his real talent. In terms of alchemy, he was indeed quite good.

The two main ingredients, the Black Lotus Snake and the Six-winged Sky-trapping Dragon, have been refined into the Yin and Yang energies, and are supported by many objects of the Five Elements. Logically, it should be time for the elixir to be ready. However, the Five Elements are the Five Elements, and Yin and Yang are Yin and Yang, and the two sides have no intention of supporting each other.

In this regard, Shi Chengshan could only comment that there was a lack of clear distinction between the primary and secondary, strong and weak, and the leader's wife was eager for success, so she sent too many five-element medicines, which led to an imbalance of the yin and yang of the five elements, and no one was willing to submit to anyone else.

Well, that should be the case.

"I wonder what it will become after refining it..."

There were too many blind spots in his knowledge, so Shi Chengshan could only take one step at a time. When he heard footsteps behind him, he frowned and said, "Sister Mu, now is not the time to chat. Who... who are you?"

Shi Chengshan woke up from work and saw the unfamiliar faces of Wang Hu and Li Banshan. Looking at Yin Mu's dazed look, he secretly thought it was troublesome.

He is an alchemist, not a thug, and he can't handle this situation.

"My two brave men, this is the place where the Five Poison Sect refines medicine. If you want to take the treasure, I will not stop you. But let me be frank with you, the elixir is not yet made. Now is not the best time to take the treasure." Shi Chengshan was very straightforward and silently stepped back a distance to show that he had no intention of resisting.

Wang Hu glanced at Shi Chengshan and asked, "When will the elixir be ready? How long will it take?"

"Not sure. We are missing a carrier. It would be best if it were a living being that possesses the Yin and Yang and Five Elements, such as a Xiantian Stage..."

Shi Chengshan was halfway through his words when he shook his head again and again: "I can't do it. I don't have the complete five elements. I only have the yin and yang. I can only cultivate to the innate state by relying on external forces. I can't bear the power of the elixir."

Wang Hu narrowed his eyes: "You didn't lie to me?"

"I really can't..."

"The first half of your sentence, as long as there is a living creature that possesses the Yin and Yang and Five Elements, the elixir can be produced. You didn't lie to me?"

"No."

"Hahaha, Brother Li, it's effortless!"

Wang Hu turned his head and looked at Li Banshan, narrowing his tiger eyes with a fierce light flashing in them.

"Brother Wang Hu, don't listen to his nonsense. Is the brotherhood between you and me less important than the nonsense of an outsider?"

Li Banshan slowly retreated, protecting Yin Mu in front of him, and said exhaustedly: "Think it over carefully. Shi is trying to sow discord between us. If you believe him, one of the two tigers will die and the other will be injured in the fight. Then he will become a hunter."

"It makes sense..."

Wang Hu smiled and nodded. The next second, he raised his body and pounced towards Li Banshan.

At the same time, Li Banshan took out the Qiankun bag and released eight zombies of equal size.
