Chapter 133 Dead End
Xuanwu Kingdom, Divine Beast Valley.
Legend has it that there is a national guardian beast in the Xuanwu Kingdom, which is the source of the kingdom's fortune.
A cold wind blew out from the depths of the narrow, towering valley. Looking up, one could see blue sky and white clouds, but the chill went straight to the bone!
Below, a prison van was being escorted inside.
"Come on!"
"This place is so creepy, ugh..."
"Ah……"
Jiu, who was walking in front, turned around. There were two figures standing beside her, looking at the guards.
His cold smile sent a chill down the spines of the group.
They were just ordinary assassins, but these three in front of them were monsters!
Inside the prison van, a woman in white was bound by chains and unable to move.
……
Dan Pavilion.
Qin Ming was in his alchemy room, looking thoughtfully at a batch of "dregs" that had just come out of the furnace.
So there really is no substitute...
He once refined the Nine-Turn Great Rejuvenation Pill, the main ingredient of which was "dragon blood".
This dragon blood is not actually dragon blood in the true sense. It is a potent medicine made primarily from the blood of the divine beast of Xuanwu Kingdom to enhance one's power. If the body cannot withstand it, it may explode and die!
He broke through to the highest level by relying on dragon blood.
The Nine-Turn Great Rejuvenation Pill enhances the medicinal power while neutralizing some of its properties.
Now he wanted to try to refine a more powerful elixir, but he failed.
He did not continue trying, because he had already exhausted the dragon blood in his hands.
I arrived at the clinic, but it was closed because it was the weekend.
"Master."
Where is your senior sister?
Qin Ming looked at Chen Xiaoju and asked.
Chen Xiaoju pointed in the direction of the Dan Pavilion ahead, "Let's go find some books."
As she spoke, Xinyu and Tianyu walked over together, each carrying several books, but they weren't medical books; they were martial arts manuals.
"Humph!"
Upon seeing Qin Ming, Xin Yu puffed out her cheeks and turned to walk away without saying hello.
It looks like they went to practice their martial arts.
Uh……
Qin Ming rubbed his nose. There was nothing he could do. Xinyu was his eldest disciple. She did have a foundation in martial arts, but it wasn't particularly strong.
Over the years, Qin Ming has gone out for fresh air from time to time, which is considered as handing over the Dan Pavilion to her. Xinyu has a strong sense of responsibility. Although she is unwilling, she still secretly competes with him.
Even though she started late, with the foundation Qin Ming helped her build, it wasn't too late as long as she put in the effort.
Because of this, Xinyu had a lot of opinions about him.
However, Xinyu wasn't angry because Qin Ming wanted him to practice martial arts; it was because Qin Ming often left without saying goodbye...
Qin Ming didn't mind, he thought it would be fine after a while. Then he looked at Chen Xiaoju and said, "I'm going out for a bit. By the way, how are the medicinal insects you were cultivating going?"
"Xiaohong?"
As Chen Xiaoju spoke, a small pink snake emerged from the medicine pouch at her waist.
It flicked out its red forked tongue.
A faint, sweet fragrance wafted out; these medicinal insects were raised by Chen Xiaoju using a large amount of precious medicinal herbs.
The donkey that Qin Ming raised back then was also a medicinal animal.
By continuously feeding the animal with herbs, the medicinal power is condensed into its flesh and blood, thereby improving the quality of the medicine and eliminating toxins from the herbs.
However, there is a limit to the potency of medicine that a medicinal beast can withstand.
This method is very ancient and requires specific medicinal animals. Qin Ming's donkey is no longer useful and can only be raised in the wild.
On the contrary, the snake that Chen Xiaoju found from somewhere had terrifyingly high medicinal properties!
Qin Ming casually fed the snake the dregs from the previous medicine, and the snake sniffed them and began to eat.
He nodded and said to Chen Xiaoju, "Take good care of yourself."
"Ah."
Chen Xiaoju nodded, and then saw Qin Ming off from Dan Pavilion.
……
Longmen Inn.
"Have you heard? The assassin organization has been making a big move recently."
"Looks like a traitor, imprisoned in the Valley of Divine Beasts, tsk tsk..."
"It's too awful."
"Hmph... This kind of news is clearly meant to lure people into a rescue. Do you know who it is?"
"Who?"
Qin Ming had just arrived when he saw a familiar figure walking out of the inn, and his gaze swept over the figure.
柒？
The divine beast of Xuanwu Kingdom... No way?
Qin Ming's eyes flashed, and without lingering, he turned around and followed.
The national guardian beast of Xuanwu Kingdom sounds impressive, but according to his guess, it is actually a "medicinal beast" kept by the royal family.
The main ingredient source of dragon's blood.
It's probably been raised for over a hundred years!
It's no exaggeration to call such a huge creature a national treasure.
The blood of this medicinal beast has nurtured countless top masters; if it were to survive, its ability to suppress the fate of a nation would be no mere boast.
These are top-tier experts, representing peak combat power in both the Kingdom of Ster and the Kingdom of Xuanwu.
As things unfold, it seems that "Seven" will kill the divine beast in order to save people...
……
In the Valley of Divine Beasts, Qi entered the trap prepared for him without any hindrance.
Above the valley, figures waited.
A murderous intent flashed in Jiu's eyes. "Let's make this clear first, the Demon Blade is mine. In exchange, I can give you two superior martial arts manuals."
They exchanged a glance, and standing to his left was a figure with a similar build and most features to Qi.
Upon hearing this, he said in a low voice, "The value of the Demon Blade is more than just a top-notch martial arts manual. Moreover, without us, you wouldn't have been able to kill him."
"Humph!"
"Yes."
On the right is a burly figure carrying a broadsword on his back, with a face full of scars, and wearing a black robe.
His voice was deep and muffled, and his eyes were filled with a murderous aura.
Seeing that the two were not reaching an agreement, Jiu's face also darkened.
He was second only to Qi among all those eliminated in the "trials," though his combat strength and talent were slightly inferior.
But precisely because of this, his jealousy and hatred towards Qi were also the greatest.
Especially after Qi became a Shadow Assassin, within just three years, he not only obtained the Demon Blade, but also rose to become the chief Shadow Assassin, becoming famous throughout the Xuanwu Kingdom!
They can only hide in the shadows, never seeing the light of day.
Why! ?
All of this should have been mine! The Chief Shadow Assassin, the Demon Blade Thousand Blades, should all have been mine!
Crack...
Jiu used his thumb to press against the guard and pushed the blade out of the scabbard.
He seemed intent on killing the two of them first.
The two men also sensed his murderous aura, their expressions darkened, and they both placed their hands on the knives in their hands.
"Ok?"
Just then, the air suddenly went quiet, and the three of them vanished from their spot in a flash.
However, they did not engage in combat. Instead, they retreated to a distance and cautiously looked back at their original positions.
Qin Ming glanced at it with a puzzled look, then looked away and lowered his gaze to the valley below.
The three of them, “…?!”
when?
They exchanged a glance and found that the other two had similar expressions, both looking surprised and uncertain.
Clearly, none of them noticed when Qin Ming arrived; it was Qin Ming who made a sound, which drew their attention!
Without making a sound, the three quietly withdrew their killing intent and turned to leave in unison.
If we can't afford to mess with them, we'll retreat.
Qin Ming looked out of the valley and saw at least a hundred killing intents. These killing intents gathered in mid-air to form a shadow, which was clearly visible to him.
This is interesting! Hundreds of experts are surrounding and killing the chief shadow assassin!
Such a grand occasion is rare; even the Qilin didn't receive this treatment back in the day.
Qilin, "Achoo...?"
