Black Wind Mountain.
Xuanqing had just returned to the Taoist temple and had not laid down for a while when he found that Zhu Ganglie and Mao Erjie had come to visit him again.
“What, you say that we should use sister-in-law as bait to lure out the Yellow Wind Monster?”
“That’s right. She has long wanted to die, and dying early means reincarnating early. It would also give us a legitimate reason to make a move. Even if the Buddha himself came, he wouldn’t be able to say anything.”
Zhu Ganglie was also somewhat helpless.
Hearing such words,
Xuanqing’s face revealed a strange expression.
Although he knew that there was some truth in what they said, the action still made one want to laugh.
“Brother Zhu Ganglie, sister-in-law, are you sure you want to do this?” “Absolutely!”
Zhu Ganglie hadn’t spoken yet when Mao Erjie, who was by his side, couldn’t help it any longer. This matter concerns her reincarnation into a human being, where dying by suicide and being killed by an enemy makes no big difference. “Alright then, let’s do as you two suggest.”
Xuanqing nodded slightly and thought for a moment before saying again,
“However, we cannot be impatient about this matter. We have just made a move recently, and they will surely be on guard. It’s better to wait for a while before going to them when they’ve let their guard down!”
“What Junior Brother said is reasonable. Let’s wait for a while!” Zhu Ganglie hurriedly agreed.
Delaying the matter for a while fits right into his intentions.
As for Zhu Ganglie, the longer the delay, the better. It is only because his wife cries and whines that he even wants to delay it until the start of the Fetching of the Scriptures.
And so,
The matter of slaying the Yellow Wind Monster was temporarily put aside, and everyone planned to wait for a while, then take action when their opponent had relaxed their guard.
A week passed.
That day,
As Xuanqing pondered whether it was time to slay the Yellow Wind Monster since seven days had passed, two unexpected visitors arrived at Black Wind Mountain.
In the sky above the Black Wind Mountain,
A lucky cloud slowly descended, and on it stood two child-like beings, one clothed in a golden silken robe and the other in a silver silken robe.
Noticing the movements,
Xuanqing looked up, and when he saw the people on the cloud, surprise spread across his face.
“Junior Brother Xuanqing, we’ve missed you after only a few days!” Child Jin Ling and Yin Ling Tongzi landed on the ground, their faces filled with excitement as they greeted Xuanqing.
“Greetings to Senior Brother Jin Ling and Senior Brother Yin Ling!” Xuanqing made a set of hand-seals and performed a ritual to greet his peers.
“What brings you both to my humble abode here at Black Wind Mountain?”
Xuanqing couldn’t help but feel curious.
Given that there were still decades left before the Journey to the West, he thought the two of them shouldn’t have descended to the lower realm just yet. “Haha, the reason we could come to the lower realm is all thanks to you, Junior Brother!” Yin Ling Tongzi said with a laugh, clearly in a good mood.
“Oh? What does this have to do with me?” Xuanqing raised his eyebrows.
Yin Ling Tongzi explained with a smile, “Your ginseng fruits have already been refined into elixirs, and our teacher has sent us to deliver the pills to you.”
At the side,
“That’s right, that’s right!” Child Jin Ling also chimed in.
Hearing this,
Xuanqing was initially taken aback, but then feelings of excitement and confusion followed.
He had previously brought four hundred ginseng fruits to Douluo Palace as a tribute to the Ancestor Master, who, pleased with his filial piety, rewarded him with the “Tiangang Thirty-six Method.”
He had also mentioned that he would refine the ginseng fruits into ‘Chaos
Pills,’ but it would take seventy-seven forty-nine days to complete.
But how much time had passed since then?
With that thought in mind,
He couldn’t help but ask, “Brothers, didn’t the Ancestor Master say it would take seventy-seven forty-nine days to refine the pill?”
“Forty-nine days in Heaven should correspond to forty-nine years on Earth!”
Hearing this,
Child Jin Ling and Yin Ling Tongzi exchanged glances.
“If it were up to us brothers to refine the elixir, of course, it would take seventy-seven forty-nine days, and that’s not even a guarantee that it will become a pill!”
“But this elixir was personally refined by Sir himself. He finished refining it in the Lower Realm on the day you arrived. However, Sir said you wouldn’t need it right away, so he told us to bring it to you later!” said Jin Ling child, tilting his head and explaining.
Xuanqing suddenly understood.
Tsk tsk-
He didn’t expect that even an Ancestor Master like him would make such a boring joke, making him think it would take several decades to wait.
Afterward.
Yin Ling child took out a small jade bottle from his pocket and said, “Junior Brother, Sir refined nine furnaces, nine pills in each, totaling eighty-one Chaos Pills.”
“Thank you, two senior brothers, for delivering the pills!”
Xuanqing took the small jade bottle, thanked them, and was just about to see what kind of effects this elixir refined by Ancestor Master had…
“Right, almost forgot.” Yin Ling child slapped his forehead. “Apart from ordering us brothers to deliver the pills, Sir also instructed us to do one more thing.”
“Sir said, this Chaos Pill has an overbearing and powerful effect, even the Celestial Body cannot directly absorb it. It needs external force to be beaten into the body.”
With that said,
A wolf-toothed club-like stick appeared in Yin Ling Child’s hand. “This is the pestle used for grinding medicine in Douluo Palace. It can assist Junior Brother!”
Seeing this,
Xuanqing’s pupils constricted.
In the moment this wolf-toothed club appeared, he sensed a powerful coercion from it. If it was beaten on the body, whether or not it could be endured… would be a problem, he feared.
Is this Chaos Pill so overbearing that it requires the help of this thing to be absorbed?
With this thought,
Xuanqing couldn’t help but open the jade bottle and pour out a pill.
About the size of a corn kernel, emitting a faint glow, the pill didn’t have any smell and looked just like an ordinary glowing pearl at a glance.
Focusing his attention,
He instantly got information about this elixir in his mind.
[Chaos Pill]: Extracted from the Chaotic Qi condensed in a Ginseng Fruit; when consumed, it greatly enhances the strength of the physical body, with a chance to transform it into a Chaos Body.
PS: The Chaos Pill has an overbearing and powerful effect; it requires special means to assist in its absorption.
As expected,
Even the Game System, when introducing the Chaos Pill, added a PS at the bottom, describing that it needed special means to help it.
And this special means was presumably to beat it into the body with the wolf-toothed club-shaped pestle.
Xuanqing looked at the pestle for grinding medicine in Yin Ling child’s hand and found that the latter was a little distracted, glancing around.
Seeing this,
He knew,
That these two child-like beings must have been cooped up in Douluo Palace for too long and were now longing and curious about everything in the human world!
Considering that,
Xuanqing smiled and suggested, “Let’s talk about taking the pill later. The two senior brothers have just arrived in the Lower Realm. How about 1 take you around the Human World first?”
“Great, that’s wonderful!”
The two child-like beings’ eyes lit up.
They were taken to the heavens when they were young and barely understood anything; they had always been yearning for the Human World. Now that they had the chance, it was too good to refuse.
This outing,
A whole week had passed.
It was only after the two child-like beings had played through the entire Black Wind Town did they return to the mountain.
“Junior Brother Xuanqing, I’m sorry, we got carried away playing and delayed you for so long.” The two child-like beings were somewhat embarrassed.
Hearing this,
“No problem!”
Xuanqing smiled and waved his hand.
“Let’s start now.”
“Alright, Junior Brother, please take the pill!”
