Xiao Ling said with a smile as he gently stroked the little mink's furry head.
"Hehe, it won't be long before you become the number one talisman master in Douqi Continent. By then, your combat effectiveness won't be a problem."
With a hint of pride, Xiao Diao gently slapped Xiao Ling's hand away, then casually put the pile of pill recipes aside and sighed in distress.
"Alas, the effects of these pills are indeed good, but none of them can revive my Master Diao. Is this the limit of the pills in the Douqi Continent?"
Xiao Diao's eyes revealed a hint of dissatisfaction, as if he was a little disappointed with these pill recipes. After all, if he wanted to be resurrected, he could only place his hopes on these strange pills.
Seeing the little mink frowning and looking distressed, Xiao Ling couldn't help but smile and comforted it, "Don't worry, these pills are not the limit of Douqi Continent. These are basically eighth-grade pills, and the really powerful ones are ninth-grade pills. Those pills are truly magical, able to turn the world around, and have amazing effects. Maybe there is a pill suitable for your current condition among them."
Xiao Ling's words made the little mink's eyes flash with light, as if it saw a ray of light in the darkness. But soon, the light went out again. It curled its lips and said helplessly,
"But those are ninth-grade elixirs. It's not easy for an eighth-grade alchemist like you to get them. By the time you can refine ninth-grade elixirs, it will be too late. I don't know how long it will take."
There was a hint of sadness in the little mink's words, as if it was lamenting the length of time and the unattainable goal.
"Oh, what's wrong with you? You look so sad. Didn't you mention the 'Life and Death Wheel Pill'?" Xiao Ling smiled softly, revealing a hint of confidence in his eyes.
"Although we here on the Douqi Continent cultivate Douqi and are not good at the Qi of Life and Death of your Tianxuan Continent, we can still find some medicinal herbs that contain the Qi of Life and Death. I just need to study how to balance the Qi of Life and Death, and maybe I can make a similar pill."
Xiao Ling had been thinking about how to revive Xiao Diao, so he took the opportunity to inquire about the "Life and Death Wheel Pill" and how to refine it.
The Wheel of Life and Death Pill, this is a super healing pill on the Tianxuan Continent. As long as a person still has a breath, even if the heart is broken, this pill can pull the person back from the gates of hell. This kind of pill can only be refined by those who are well versed in the way of life and death and have reached the Wheel of Life and Death Realm.
From Xiao Ling's current perspective, the status of the "Life and Death Wheel Pill" in the Douqi Continent is definitely not inferior to those ordinary eighth-grade nine-color pills. Moreover, because it has the special effect of reversing life and death, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is comparable to some ninth-grade pills.
Although Xiao Ling's skills in alchemy were already quite superb, relying on his spiritual realm of great perfection, refining high-level eighth-grade elixirs was not too difficult for him.
However, Xiao Ling's experience is still lacking. Being highly skilled in alchemy does not mean that he has a thorough understanding of all elixirs. Those experienced and experienced alchemists must have a much wider understanding and knowledge of various elixirs than Xiao Ling.
Therefore, Xiao Ling was not good at creating new pill formulas. If he relied on his current experience alone to develop a sixth- or seventh-grade pill, he would have a certain chance of developing it if he invested enough time. But to revive Xiao Diao, the pill needed must be at least the peak of the eighth grade, or even the ninth grade.
After listening to Xiao Diao's explanation of the principle of the Wheel of Life and Death Pill, Xiao Ling already had some ideas about creating his own pill. However, to develop a pill that can replace the effect of the Wheel of Life and Death Pill, he still needs to spend a lot of time and study it in depth.
Xiao Ling thought about it and shook his head. He couldn't help but feel a little worried. He said to himself, "When I return to Xingyun Pavilion, I have to have a good talk with Yao Lao about this matter. Maybe he can give me some inspiration and help me make some breakthroughs in my research."
Xiao Ling looked down at the little mink in his arms, couldn't help but sigh, and complained half-jokingly, "If only you were a human soul, I could just find a body to revive you. It's a pity that you are a demon spirit and can't use a human body. It's really too much trouble."
"Come on, come on," the little mink waved its little paws and said with disdain, "If I can't restore the body of the Heavenly Demon Marten after resurrection, then I, Master Diao, would rather let it go."
Xiao Ling had mentioned the secret method of using a human body to revive the beast before, but the little marten refused without even thinking about it. It was the soul of a demon beast, how could it possibly be compatible with a human body? Even if it was really resurrected, wouldn't it be a weird beast? As a celestial demon marten, with its dignity and pride, how could it accept such a thing?
At this moment, Qing Lin came out of the house, carefully carrying a plate of fragrant tea and a few plates of snacks. She had a faint smile on her face and walked briskly towards Xiao Ling.
"Young Master, try Qinglin's cooking skills and see if it has improved compared to last time." Qinglin said as he walked to Xiao Ling's side and gently placed the snacks on the stone table beside him.
Her movements were skillful and graceful, and each plate of dessert was neatly arranged, as if she was completing a beautiful painting. The sunlight shone through the treetops and onto the stone table, adding a warm atmosphere to this simple arrangement.
As Qing Lin approached, Xiao Ling quickly put the still dazed Xiao Diao on the coffee table beside him. Then, he stretched out his hand and Qing Lin's soft and delicate body fell into his arms.
Xiao Ling buried his head gently in Qing Lin's neck and took a deep breath. The faint fragrance intoxicated him. He smiled and whispered, "My baby Qing Lin understands me the best. I must reward you well tonight."
The little mink swayed on the coffee table for a few times, and finally stood firmly. It glared at Xiao Ling fiercely and complained: "Humph, as expected, humans are all lustful guys!"
Chapter 377: The Infinite Imagination of Huoyun Patriarch
Qinglin was caught off guard by Xiao Ling's sudden hug. She felt her heartbeat quicken instantly, and her pretty face involuntarily flushed.
She struggled slightly, but found herself locked tightly in Xiao Ling's arms, unable to move.
Although Qinglin and Xiao Ling had a lot of intimate moments recently, they were usually when they were alone. At this moment, although there was no one around, Qinglin knew in his heart that the little guy who called himself the Heavenly Demon Marten was as smart as any adult.
She secretly glanced at the little mink, which was sipping tea calmly, seemingly oblivious to everything around it.
"Young Master, what...what are you doing? There are outsiders here?" Qing Lin's voice was as low as a mosquito's buzz. She avoided looking directly at Xiao Ling. Her shy look made people want to take a bite.
Xiao Ling looked at Qing Lin's shy appearance, and his tenderness in his heart became even stronger. He chuckled and gently lifted Qing Lin's chin with his fingers, forcing her to face him. "Qing Lin, you are so considerate, of course I have to thank you very much. Besides, Xiao Diao is not a human, don't worry about him."
As Xiao Ling spoke, he casually released a soul barrier, easily blocking Xiao Diao's curious gaze.
The little mink was watching with great interest. But suddenly, its sight was blocked by the invisible barrier. It was stunned for a moment, then shrugged its shoulders helplessly, turned around, grabbed a few exquisite snacks, and started to chew them.
Qing Lin felt Xiao Ling's breath brushing past her ears, and her body trembled involuntarily. She bit her lips lightly, trying to break free from Xiao Ling's arms, but found that the more she struggled, the tighter Xiao Ling held her.
Seeing Qinglin's shy look, Xiao Ling slowly moved closer and kissed Qinglin's lips. Qinglin felt Xiao Ling's closeness, and with Xiao Diao's sight blocked, her shyness gradually faded and she began to respond to Xiao Ling's kiss.
Their lips pressed tightly together, their tongues intertwined, as if the whole world had disappeared, leaving only the two of them. Xiao Ling's kiss was gentle and affectionate, and Qing Lin's response became more and more passionate.
The breathing of both of them gradually became rapid, and the lingering lips and teeth made Qinglin's cheeks even redder, and her eyes flickered with a hazy light.
Xiao Ling's hands began to become restless. He reached his hand under Qing Lin's shirt, and his fingers gently slid across the softness, feeling the warmth of Qing Lin's body.
Qing Lin felt the movement of Xiao Ling's big hand and became more and more shy. Her body trembled slightly, but she did not resist. Instead, she stuck closer to Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling's kiss gradually became gentler, and he explored Qing Lin's mouth bit by bit, as if he was tasting the most delicious dessert. Qing Lin also responded to his enthusiasm, and their tongues seemed to be dancing an elegant dance, entangled together.
Noticing that Qing Lin was a little out of breath, Xiao Ling did not go any further. After all, it was still early and there was no need to rush some things. There was plenty of time to enjoy them slowly in the evening.
So, he gently let go of Qinglin, and their faces slowly separated. There seemed to be a trace of reluctance between their lips. The ambiguous and touching picture made people's heart beat faster.
Qinglin's cheeks were as red as ripe apples. She shyly buried her head in Xiao Ling's arms, not daring to look into his eyes. Her breathing was still a little rapid, and her heartbeat had not yet completely calmed down.
That shy look is like a flower bud about to bloom, making people want to protect it.
Xiao Ling looked at Qinglin's reaction, smiled, and gently stroked her head. The movement was so gentle as if he was comforting a frightened little animal.
"Okay, Qinglin, don't be shy." Xiao Ling's voice was soft and teasing, "We still have a lot of time tonight." After he finished speaking, he kissed her gently on the ear, causing Qinglin's body to tremble involuntarily, but the shyness and anticipation had already spread in her heart.
……
"Grandmaster, what is the deep meaning of this? Why did you let Huo'er give the Nine Dragons Thunder Gang Fire in her body to Xiao Ling? Of course, the eighth-grade elixir he refined is indeed extraordinary, and my Burning Flame Valley also gave me the Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire in return. The two sides exchanged gifts and each got what it wanted. I am stupid and don't understand the mystery. I hope the ancestor can teach me."
Tang Zhen, the Lord of Fenyan Valley who usually appears to be very majestic, was now very humble in front of a red-haired old man. Although he maintained respect for his elders in his words, he still could not completely conceal his doubts.
"Haha, the so-called Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire is not enough to be called a transaction. It is just something that Xiao Ling should take away. Now that he comes to take it, he is just fulfilling the process."
"Besides, with the help of the eighth-grade Fire Bodhisattva Pill, the little girl Huo'er will be able to successfully control the complete Nine Dragons Thunder Fire. Even if the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire's seed fire is gone, it won't have much impact on her."
The red-haired old man did not turn around to face Tang Zhen. Instead, he turned his back to him, stroking his beard leisurely, looking into the distance at the bright moon in the night sky. His expression revealed a kind of calmness and indifference that was detached from the world.
"Grandmaster, what do you mean by this?" Tang Zhen was confused as he listened to the Grandmaster's words. He was already surprised that the Grandmaster suddenly came out of seclusion to find him, and now he was even more confused when he heard the Grandmaster's words that seemed to have a hidden meaning.
The ancestor had been practicing in seclusion deep in the Burning Flame Valley for a long time, and today he came to see him in person, which was enough to surprise him. Moreover, he was completely confused by the things the ancestor mentioned.
As a father, Tang Zhen naturally had no objection to passing the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire to his daughter. However, his ancestor's words made him think, as if there was some unknown connection between the Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire and Xiao Ling.
But isn't the Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire a secret skill that has been passed down in Burning Flame Valley for thousands of years? This confused him and he didn't know how to continue the topic.
"Haha, Tang Zhen, there are some things you don't need to understand too deeply yet. You just need to follow my instructions. Don't worry, all of this will only benefit Burning Flame Valley and will not cause any harm."
There was no trace of impatience in the red-haired old man's words. He had no intention of revealing more to Tang Zhen, but just gave instructions lightly.
The origin of the Heavenly Fire Three Mysterious Changes, the secret skill of the Burning Flame Valley, is also a secret. It was only after the Fire Cloud Patriarch was promoted to the Dou Sheng realm that he learned some information about it from the inheritance crystal that recorded the secret method of cultivating the Heavenly Fire Three Mysterious Changes.
In fact, the Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire was not a unique skill created by the Burning Flame Valley. Its true origin could be traced back to a peerless expert who had a deep friendship with the ancestors of the Burning Flame Valley. It was the generous gift from that expert that made the Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire the treasure of the Burning Flame Valley.
If Xiao Ling had not used the sub-fire of the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame today, even if Xiao Ling's surname was the same as that of that peerless strong man, he would not care too much and would just think it was a coincidence.
The young man named Xiao Ling not only mastered the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame, but also inherited the Xiao clan's surname. This made Ancestor Huoyun have some guesses in his mind.
Perhaps, the young man named Xiao Ling was the offspring of the ancient clan and the Xiao clan. After all, according to some rumors, the relationship between the Xiao clan and the ancient clan was particularly close at that time.
The whereabouts of the Xiao clan is unknown now, and it is very likely that they are secretly protected by the ancient clan. Under such circumstances, the emergence of a mixed-blood descendant like Xiao Ling is completely reasonable.
Moreover, he should have direct relatives in the ancient clan, and his status is probably not low. The blood in his body is also quite extraordinary. This explains why this young man is not only gifted, but also has a treasure like the Golden Emperor Burning Sky Flame.
However, it is hard to say whether this kid knows his true identity. But in the eyes of Patriarch Huoyun, he is probably still being "free-range" and going through various trials.
If we can establish a friendship with that young man at this time, it will undoubtedly be a hundred benefits for our Burning Flame Valley. When he returns to the family in the future, I believe that Burning Flame Valley will also be able to get some care from him in the future. By then, the injuries accumulated in my body for so many years may also be able to be cured.
In the eyes of Patriarch Huoyun, it would be the best thing if they could become in-laws. After all, the ancestor of his own Fenyan Valley and the ancestor of that young man were close friends, and such a marriage could be regarded as a continuation of the friendship of the older generation.
It's a pity that Xiao Ling knew nothing about what Huoyun Patriarch was planning. If he knew, he would definitely give the Patriarch a thumbs up and then happily comment: "I'm impressed by your imagination, Patriarch, your imagination is unmatched!"
"However, Xiao Ling has already mastered the Turtle Spirit Earth Fire, and it is a well-known fact that different fires cannot coexist. Even if we give him the Nine Dragons Thunder Gang Fire, it probably won't be of any practical help to him."
"Although the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire ranks slightly higher than the Turtle Spirit Earth Fire, it is, after all, only a seed fire. Its strength cannot be compared with the complete Turtle Spirit Earth Fire. Xiao Ling will not give up the Turtle Spirit Earth Fire in his hand just for this Nine Dragons Thunder Fire."
Tang Zhen frowned slightly and raised his doubts. This was also the point he had been unable to figure out.
"Haha, Tang Zhen, Xiao Ling is not as simple as you think. Just do what I say. Well, I won't waste my breath on you. As long as Fenyan Valley doesn't make any major mistakes in its decisions, don't bother me."
The Fire Cloud Patriarch still maintained his style of being mysterious, and was about to leave without saying anything. As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared without a trace in the courtyard, leaving Tang Zhen alone in deep thought.
"Alas, the old ancestor's cultivation is so profound that his thoughts are naturally not something I can guess at will. In this case, let's do as the old ancestor wishes."
Tang Zhen pondered for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out. In the end, he decided not to dwell on it anymore, muttered to himself, and turned around and left...
……
The next day, early in the morning.
As the eastern sky gradually turned golden, the warm sun slowly rose. Its light was like a soft paintbrush, delicately depicting the contours of the earth and illuminating the sleeping world.
All things slowly wake up under the caress of the morning light, and the air is filled with new vitality and hope.
A ray of sunlight cleverly passed through the tiny gap in the curtains, like a guiding lighthouse, gently illuminating the quiet room, and finally falling on Xiao Ling's closed eyelids.
The sunlight brushed gently, and Xiao Ling's eyelids trembled slightly. He slowly opened his eyes, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and then he gradually regained clarity.
He glanced out the window and saw the sun was already high in the sky. It was clearly morning. Xiao Ling had been busy all night last night and was indeed a little overworked, so he slept particularly deeply. Now that he had woken up, he felt much more energetic.
Xiao Ling smiled and stretched lazily. With a slight crackling of his joints, he felt his whole body relax a lot.
At this time, Qinglin also felt Xiao Ling's movements. She had curled up on Xiao Ling's chest like a kitten, but now she slowly opened her eyes. She gently raised her delicate hands and rubbed her sleepy eyes, looking like she had just woken up from a sweet dream.
The sunlight just happened to fall on Qinglin's eyelashes, and those tiny spots of light swayed gently as she blinked, like twinkling stars in the night sky.
She rubbed her eyes, which were still a little hazy, and looked at Xiao Ling, with a smile on her lips. Xiao Ling smiled back, and the two looked at each other for a while, with an indescribable warmth and sweetness in the air.
Xiao Ling couldn't help but reach out his hand, gently pinched Qing Lin's nose, and teased her, "Little lazy bug, get up."
Qing Lin gently slapped his hand away and said in a pretended angry tone, "Master, Qing Lin hasn't woken up yet."
But there was no anger in her voice, instead it sounded like she was acting coquettishly.
The two of them rubbed their ears intimately for a while, until Qinglin finally couldn't help laughing out loud, and then they reluctantly separated.
Xiao Ling gently lowered his head and gave Qinglin a gentle good morning kiss on his forehead, then whispered, "Okay, good morning, my little Qinglin."
"Good morning, young master." Qinglin's voice was soft, with a hint of laziness from just waking up, and her eyes were full of love for Xiao Ling.
Their lips touched gently in a simple yet loving good morning kiss before they began to dress and get ready for the day.
Xiao Ling picked up a loose robe and put it on skillfully, while Qing Lin carefully adjusted her clothes, and every movement revealed her feminine beauty.
