Chapter 398 Two-person cooperation!

The alchemy furnace lit a fire.

Shen Ye squeezed the magic formula, controlled the fire, and threw in various alchemy materials according to the steps.

Tantai Mingyue sat aside, looking at the burning fire, with a look of disbelief on her face.

She thought for a while and persuaded again:

"Every member who joins the Taishang Dao Palace cannot leave, whether they are humans or monsters——"

"Everyone is controlled by the Holy Lord, unless they die."

"You really don't want to come with me?"

"Since you said no one can escape, why do you think you can escape with me?" Shen Ye asked.

"You have met Tetsuo, so I don't have to hide it from you - I am also a person with special abilities." Tantai Mingyue said.

Seeing that Shen Ye remained silent, Tantai Mingyue thought she had persuaded him and said excitedly: "Follow me. As long as you pass some tests, you can also join the human resistance alliance."

"What is that?" Shen Ye asked.

"Our human organization - the strong men from the multi-layered universe gather together to fight against the monsters in the universe." Tantai Mingyue said.

She suddenly became tense.

"What's wrong?" Shen Ye said carefully.

"In outer space, my death summons have been killed."

"The Holy Lord will definitely search the entire flying boat. Now I can't leave even if I want to." Tantai Mingyue's face turned pale.

Shen Ye glanced at her and said thoughtfully: "Is it convenient to tell me about your door ability?"

——Panda has already introduced that his door ability is to connect to other worlds.

Although there have been changes, Tantai Mingyue now knows the abilities of himself and Panda.

She doesn't know her abilities.

——If she is willing to say it, she is sincere.

"I can open a door to any nether world, summon those beings who want to be resurrected, sign a contract with them, and make them come alive and do things for me."

Tantai Mingyue introduced without hesitation.

"What is the death summoning object that you use to attract the Holy Lord?"

"The inner demon of the Holy Lord - I thought I could delay it for a while, but I didn't expect that he died so quickly. I couldn't bear it at all."

"Of course I can't stand it. The inner demon is just created by the Holy Lord for fun." Shen Ye said.

"That's it. I've also prepared manpower. They are building an ultra-long-distance teleportation array. What should I do?"

Tantai Mingyue became anxious.

Shen Ye moved his hand and clapped his hand towards the alchemy furnace.

Boom!
The flame goes out and the alchemy furnace is opened.

The plump and round pills of Ningshen flew out and fell into the gourd that Shen Ye had prepared.

After all the elixirs were filled, he handed the gourd to Tantai Mingyue.

"Eliminate all evidence of activity and stay with me from now on. Maybe we can survive."

Shen Ye said in a message.

Tantai Mingyue's heart suddenly tightened.

——I can’t leave anymore!
So should we do as he said?
She gritted her teeth, put one hand in the air, and shouted:

"Disband - all summoning contracts."

In her room, the door to the underworld suddenly disappeared.

All the monks who were constructing the law of ultra-long-distance transmission turned into ghosts.

Their flesh and blood gradually disappeared.

One by one, the souls lost their bodies, immediately left the Yang world, and also disappeared.

"All evidence has been erased."

Tantai Mingyue Road.

"Very good, stay here now. If the Holy Lord comes and asks, just tell me that you have been refining elixirs with me." Shen Ye closed his eyes after saying this.

at the same time.

The vertical pupils on the back of his hand slowly opened.

Link to the Heart of the Swarm!

Shen Ye's consciousness penetrated into the Dharma Realm, went straight to the heart of the swarm, and began to send a message: "Family members, I heard that you can't quit after joining the 99th floor Taishang Dao Palace. Zundu is fake. ? Is this the case with our imperial species?"

The level 19 Crimson Lord quickly replied:

"Generally speaking."

"——Because they can't detect any secrets, they have no choice but to regard all beings who enter the Tao Palace as potential Tongtian Technique stealers."

"This is to show that they are serious about their work."

"But everyone knows that just shows how incompetent they are."

"After all, thousands of years have passed—"

"They have not made any progress in the three arts of the Immortal Kingdom."

This is exactly what Tantai Mingyue said.

So she wanted to use the inner demons of the Holy Lord to lure the tiger away from the mountain and then take herself away, but it actually didn't work.

For thousands of years, no one has been able to escape!
"Okay," Shen Ye sent the message again aggrievedly, "Then I will stay here and continue working. I can't leave anyway."

The heart of the swarm was quiet for a moment.

A majestic voice suddenly sounded:
"They've had enough. There has been no progress for so many years, and now they want to make things difficult for us again."

"What do you know?" asked the Crimson Lord.

The majestic voice sneered: "The master of secrets who is responsible for the three arts of the fairyland has offered me a price, hoping that I will no longer interfere with Baxter's affairs. It wants to enslave Baxter."

As soon as these words were spoken, the insect swarms all erupted in ferocious chirps.

"No one can enslave us!"

The Crimson Lord roared with murderous intent.

"But -" the majestic voice sounded again: "The cosmic contract is serious. No one can resist the Lord of Secrets, because every Lord of Secrets is the core force selected by all races in the universe to preside over great undertakings!"

"Then let him enslave Baxter?" The Crimson Lord asked unwillingly.

"Of course not, after all, I am also the master of secrets." said the majestic voice.

"Can you let Baxter leave the Tao Palace?" the Crimson Lord asked.

"It's hard for me to come forward unless Baxter participates in an extremely great cause and makes contributions. I will improve his status -"

The majestic voice continued:
"If he contributes a lot to the great cause, then I can legitimately transfer him."

"What should I do?" Shen Ye interrupted at the right time.

"Baxter, my team encountered a monster so difficult that the exploration of a certain universe secret had to be suspended."

"I remember you said there were two entries. I have already seen the mythical level destiny entry, but now what I need is combat ability."

"——What is the approximate level of your combat entry?"

"It's also a mythical level." Shen Ye said.

The insects made a gasping "hissing" sound one after another.

But the majestic voice laughed and asked:
"Can you really make the enemy make mistakes?"

Shen Ye explained: "There must be continuous accidents, killing him must hit his weak point, and valuable things must be scattered."

"How long can it last?" the majestic voice continued to ask.

"It lasts for 10 seconds and cools down for 5 minutes. If the target is not dead, it will be triggered again and the cycle will repeat." Shen Ye said.

The entire Heart of the Swarm fell silent.

The bugs seemed to be digesting the shock brought by this mythical entry.

A few breaths have passed.

The majestic voice sounded again:
"I suddenly feel a little more confident——"

"The Crimson Lord, the Hundred-Armed Demon, and the Poison-hating Evil King, take my emblem and go to mobilize the army. Let's fight again."

"Yes!" Three murderous insect chirps sounded.

"Baxter, please go back and wait - if the Holy Master of the Taishang Dao Palace comes to find you, try to delay it for a little while, and I will handle the temporary war zone transfer procedures for you as soon as possible." A majestic voice said.

"Thank you, boss." Shen Ye said.

His consciousness returned to his true body, he opened his eyes, tapped the alchemy furnace, lit the fire again, and put in the alchemy ingredients.

——Start refining the second furnace of Ningshen Pill!
“Look at how many high-grade elixirs there are in that gourd just now, and how many middle-grade, low-grade and useless elixirs there are.”

Shen Ye said.

Tantai Mingyue opened the gourd, silently observed the quality of each pill, and made statistics.

same moment.

On the deck of the flying boat.

The Holy Lord stands here alone, holding a head in his hand.

The head of the inner demon!
——Having just killed his inner demon again, the anger in his heart has reached the extreme!

Who is it?

He can actually summon his own inner demons!

Use my inner demons to kill me—

In the extremely long years, I can't remember the last time I was slapped in the face like this.

We must find that guy and cut him into pieces!
The Holy Lord checked every suspicious point on the flying boat, but still could not find the hidden enemy.

He suddenly laughed ferociously.

"opinionated……"

"If everyone in the entire flying boat dies, I'll see where you can hide."

There was a flash of void.

The Holy Lord rushed out of the flying boat, suspended in the dark and boundless universe, and stretched out his hand to make a spell.

A ball of light as blazing as a star appeared in his hand.

"It's been a long time since I attacked with all my strength - if you don't come out now, there will only be one end -"

"die!"

The Holy Lord raised his hand high, and the ball of light immediately floated up.

suddenly.

A figure appeared in his mind.

——The imperial species in its infancy.

Do you want to kill it too?

Although no one can say anything after killing it, the Heart of the Swarm will naturally find out the whole thing.

For the sake of a mere traitor, he lost a potentially capable subordinate and offended the powerful force behind him——

The Holy Lord forcibly suppressed the surging murderous intention all over his body.

Even the spell that was as blazing as a star was canceled by him on the spot.

...go take a look.

If he is willing to take refuge, of course that would be great.

If he dares to put on airs in front of himself——

Then don’t blame yourself for being cruel!
The Holy Lord flashed, returned to the flying boat, passed through the void, and appeared directly in Shen Ye's room.

now.

Shen Ye was concentrating on refining the elixir.

Tantai Mingyue was beside him, holding the gourd, and his spiritual thoughts penetrated it, carefully identifying the elixir from the previous batch.

When the Holy Lord appeared, the two of them didn't notice it at all.

However, the Holy Lord did not expect this scene, and could not help but stand behind them, observing what they were doing in surprise.

It happened that Tantai Mingyue said: "There are 53 Ningshen Pills in total, including 7 waste pills, 12 low-grade pills, 33 medium-grade pills, and one pill that surpasses the quality of the middle-grade pill. It only lacks a little luster and medicinal essence to call it a top-grade elixir.”

"Congratulations, you're almost successful."

The alchemy formulas in Shen Ye's hands continued to change, and he said without looking back: "I haven't refined even one high-grade elixir. What's the point of congratulations?"

Tantai Mingyue explained patiently:

"That's not the case. If you don't have a breakthrough in alchemy, you won't be able to make the quality of the elixir break through to the middle grade."

"The hardest thing is to break through from 0 to 1."

"You have already made a breakthrough. With more support and practice, you have great hope."

The Holy Lord nodded slightly.

——This is indeed the case.

At this time, bursts of roaring sounds of wind and fire suddenly sounded in the alchemy furnace.

The second batch of elixir is almost ready!

Tantai Mingyue immediately shut her mouth and stared at the alchemy furnace without blinking.

This is the most critical moment.

Shen Ye slowly activated the elixir technique with both hands, concentrating on controlling the elixir fire, gathering the medicinal liquid, and kneading it into shape.

Lean less.

The alchemy furnace exuded bursts of medicinal fragrance, overflowing the entire room.

This is a sign that the elixir is about to be completed.

It can take as long as a few minutes, or as short as tens of breaths——

The elixir will definitely be released!

Shen Ye and Tantai Mingyue both became nervous.

The Holy Lord stood behind the two of them. He was about to speak, but when he saw this scene, he stopped for a moment.

Although he is the master of secrets, the legendary advanced life in the universe——

But as the person in charge of the secret mission, he has been cultivating the Dao Palace for countless years, and he is extremely proficient in the knowledge of the cultivation side.

I know how difficult it is to refine the top-grade Ningshen Pill.

——No one in the sect can refine the top-grade Ningshen Pill!

That's why I had to send someone to purchase.

If Nangong Wantu could actually refine the high-grade Ningshen Pill, it would be an astonishing thing.

What humans cannot do, the emperor species has done!

How ridiculous! How amazing!
This moment.

As a leader of a spiritual sect who "knows what to do", the Holy Lord also had a little bit of curiosity about this.

Don't interrupt a practitioner who is about to make a breakthrough in alchemy. That would be a great pity. Besides, I also want to see the quality of this furnace of elixir.

...just wait.

It was only a matter of a few minutes anyway.

The Holy Lord restrained the murderous intention in himself, disappeared into the void, stood with his hands behind his back, and carefully observed the alchemy furnace.

He is indeed a connoisseur.

I just squinted my eyes for a while and then made a judgment.

"There are almost no mistakes in the heat and techniques, and the medicinal fragrance is also very strong."

"There is an auspicious vision on the alchemy stove."

"——Is it really possible to produce a high-quality Ningshen Pill?"

Time passed by minute by minute.

Shen Ye suddenly said: "If I refine the top-grade Ningshen Pill, you must sign a contract and go forward or retreat with me at any time."

"No problem." Tantai Mingyue said.

"Okay, it's settled." Shen Ye changed his tactics and patted the alchemy furnace from the air.

Buzz——

The alchemy furnace erupted with a long buzzing sound, and the fire was extinguished, and hot elixirs poured out one after another.

Shen Ye didn't use the gourd to catch it this time, and directly used a method of controlling objects.

All the elixirs were suddenly suspended in mid-air.

Three divine thoughts swept over dozens of elixirs, then moved back together, wrapping around a shimmering elixir.

"It's top grade." Tantai Mingyue said in a harsh voice.

Although he was extremely nervous at the moment, the other party actually made a top-grade Ningshen Pill!

Even among the human resistance alliance, this kind of elixir that heals both body and soul is very popular.

——He actually succeeded!
Chen Ye laughed a few times, turned over his hand and took out a contract:
"Sign it - as long as I call you, you must accept my call at any time."

Tantai Mingyue released her spiritual thoughts and swept over the contract.

The terms in this contract are too unfair.

Once signed, he really can call upon himself at any time.

It comes as soon as you call it, and goes away as soon as you wave it.

How could this be?
She was about to discuss the conditions when Shen Ye's voice suddenly sounded in her ears:
"Sign quickly, this is the only chance to survive."

Tantai Mingyue's heart moved.

Believe him?

Or continue to negotiate terms?
Or reject it completely and not sign the contract at all?

At first...

His mission is to investigate the secrets of the three arts of the Immortal Kingdom.

Only the panda stood up and persuaded him not to die.

He awakened his own abilities, but was feared by everyone and marginalized.

The panda is missing now, but it has left behind a light and shadow record. In the light and shadow record, it once again persuades itself not to die.

It also says -

The man in front of me is the only person I can contact.

"When you find him, you find me."

This is the original words of Panda.

...Sign it.

Anyway, he has fallen into the Tao Palace, and there is no possibility of getting out.

Anyway——

So what if I go out?

Tantai Mingyue gritted her teeth, pressed her hand on the contract, and shouted:

"Seal your soul to make this covenant!"

The contract is established!

The next second.

There was a burst of applause from behind.

The two of them turned around at the same time and saw the Holy Lord standing there with a smile on his face.

"Congratulations, Nangong Wantu."

The Holy Lord continued with a pleasant expression: "You have been able to refine the top-grade Ningshen Pill, and you have also been favored by beauties. I guess-"

"You've done a pretty good job for a human being."

Shen Ye grinned.

——As a human being?
To say such yin and yang words in front of a woman.

Are you threatening me?
Always ready to reveal my identity?

——After all, on the surface, I entered the sect just to find a Taoist companion.

So you think these words can be used to tease me?

"How have you considered my previous suggestion?"

The Holy Lord's picture is poor and dagger can be seen.

Shen Ye took a deep breath, held hands with Tantai Mingyue and said:

"I have met the Holy Lord."

——Why hasn’t there been any news from the Heart of the Swarm?
Under the gaze of the Holy Lord, he continued:

"I thought my attitude was already clear. A being like you should have seen my choice a long time ago."

"——Why don't you know? Why do you make a special trip? Just for this?"

The Holy Lord remained unmoved, stared at him, and asked expressionlessly:

"When did you make your attitude clear?"

Shen Ye pointed casually.

All the pills suspended in the air flew towards the Holy Lord and landed in front of him.

"This is the first time I have refined a high-grade Ning Shen Dan."

"I feel so excited, so nervous, and so proud, because I always thought that my talent was limited and I couldn't refine such a high-end thing."

Seeing a hint of impatience flash in the Holy Lord's eyes, Shen Ye immediately said:

"Now I offer them to His Holiness."

"——Don't you still understand what this means?"

The Holy Lord nodded slightly.

Got it.

The act of sending the elixir means that he is willing to be his subordinate.

This should be correct.

If you continue to ask yourself——

Does he feel like he doesn't even understand this again?

...The brain circuits of insects are different from mine. After all, I will never find a mate among humans.

So if I continue to act confused, will I be looked down upon by this new subordinate?
With a casual touch of the Holy Lord, all the pills in the sky disappeared.

"You agreed with my proposal."

He said in a determined tone.

Whenever the other party dares to say "no", he is making a fool of himself. Even if he tries to offend the insect swarm, he will beat him to death!

"Look," Shen Ye walked around the room, "I've been here all this time and haven't left at all. What else do you mean by me!"

The Holy Lord was silent for a moment and nodded slowly.

——I can roughly understand it.

If you hated it, you should have left long ago.

Although there is no way to leave.

This bug probably doesn't know this.

so--

Only those who are willing to do things for themselves will stay.

He is preparing to become his subordinate.

That's right.

That's it.

Then come with me to complete the master-servant contract.

——The most stringent master-servant contract needs to be witnessed by the demons before he can sign the most stringent master-servant contract. He will not be able to run away in the future.

The Holy Lord was about to speak when he saw Shen Ye winking at him.

...Aren't you done with this bug yet?
So many hints?
You have something you can’t say directly?
That’s it, for the sake of seeing him become his subordinate, guess again!
The Holy Lord’s eyes followed Shen Ye’s.

I saw him squinting at Tantai Mingyue, then turning his eyes to the other side, moving up and down quickly.

...This is easy to understand.

He was picking up girls and asked me to go first.

Um.

It’s a world of two, so I’m really sorry to come and disturb you so rashly.

Then I leave?
The Holy Lord nodded clearly, turned around and prepared to leave.

He suddenly paused again.

Damn it!
Why should I leave!
The master-servant contract has not been signed yet!

"Best regards, Holy Lord, I'll go find you to report to you if I'm a little late!"

Shen Ye shouted loudly and at the same time raised his hands in salute.

He took a step forward and leaned against Tantai Mingyue's side, looking at the Holy Lord eagerly, as if as soon as the Holy Lord left, he would——

The Holy Lord simply laughed angrily.

A bug turned into a human and frantically searched for Taoist companions, causing many troubles in the sect.

Now the Taoist companion has been found.

And he looked so impatient.

——No, you should sign a master-servant contract with me first, and then talk about these details.

The Holy Lord was about to speak when Shen Ye's voice suddenly sounded in his ears:
"Lord Holy Lord, are you also interested in human reproduction? Are you going to stay and watch?"

I'm interested in your sister!

"I'll wait for you outside, please hurry up." Shengzun said coldly.

"Men can't be faster, Holy Lord." Shen Ye said awkwardly.

"...Anyway, you should be more efficient."

The Holy Lord disappeared in a flash.

The next second.

The vertical pupils on the back of Shen Ye's hand suddenly opened.

A majestic voice came from the Dharma Realm through the vertical pupils:

"The temporary transfer order has taken effect."

"Baxter, you are about to enter the Starry Sky Cemetery and participate in the large-scale exploration war of the 170-level Tomb of Chaos."

"The transmission is about to begin."

I finally waited for you, but fortunately I didn’t give up!

Shen Ye almost sang.

"If the Holy Lord appears, just be soft-spoken and don't stand up to him."

He quickly said to Tantai Mingyue.

Tantai Mingyue nodded immediately.

Although I don’t know what the other party can do, there is nothing I can do anyway.

And the contract has been signed.

You can only bet that your choice is correct!

"Once I summon you, don't resist, just come."

"Understood."

A moment.

Shen Ye disappeared.

As soon as he left, the ripples in the space had not yet dissipated, and the Holy Lord immediately appeared in the room again.

“Where is Nangong Wantu?”

The Holy Lord said sharply.

"He..." Tantai Mingyue's mind was full of the phrase "hypocrisy and betrayal", and she couldn't help blurting out:
"He said he wanted to study first and let me rest here first."

study?

The Holy Lord raised his eyebrows.

Do you need to learn this too?
That’s enough!

Human beings find pleasure in seeing how their own race operates.

How can you, a bug, imitate humans like this?
Your imitation is too realistic!
The Holy Lord's face twitched, and he felt that there was a curse in his mouth that he couldn't spit out, as if it was stuck in his throat.

Sure enough, it delayed a bit!
Tantai Mingyue was afraid that the Holy Lord would suddenly attack, so she simply closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, and continued to output:

"He also said you shouldn't peep."

"Why? I don't call this peeping, I just sensed the fluctuations in space." The Holy Lord said.

"It's just peeping!" Tantai Mingyue said angrily, "Holy Lord, I am an innocent female cultivator. You will make me feel very embarrassed. I am not used to being looked at."

The Holy Lord opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.

If it was something else and this woman dared to contradict him, he would kill her with one palm.

But--

The kind of thing she said——

The Holy Lord was about to say a few words for the occasion, when he saw the bright moon on Tantai disappear from his eyes with a "whoosh".
