"I have a Taoist companion."

"Stop pretending. You can still have a wife who is a golden elixir cultivator. Is that your master? What's so great about the golden elixir master? My master is also a golden elixir."

"Actually..." Gou Zhu glanced around, then whispered, "My name is Qing Lingzi, and I am Qing Pingzi's junior brother. I am also a Golden Core cultivator, but I have suppressed my cultivation. Only those who are also in the Golden Core realm can

see through."

Lin Meier chuckled and said, "How can a Golden Elixir monk be entangled in a few strange weeds at the bottom of Tianchi Lake?"

"this……"

"You're not a fish tribe, are you?" Lin Meier no longer sat with her arms crossed, but lay down on her side. Her right hand rested on the dry rock, supporting the side of her face, showing a graceful and charming silhouette.

, said with a lazy expression.

"Although your disguise is very clever and I can't see through it at all, the way you swim looks so clumsy and cute. I have never seen a species that swims so stupidly. I guess you are not a monster. Are you a human?

Since you are not a demon, then neither is your master?"

Gou Zhu felt confused for a while. Lian Ling's exquisite demon-transforming pill technique, which perfectly simulated the appearance, breath and body of demons, and even simulated the power of qi and blood with true energy, had no flaws, but it was actually flawless by his swimming posture.

Revealed?

"Humph, just take a guess." Of course Gouzhu refused to admit his guilt. Since Lian Ling didn't want to expose Renxiu's identity, she certainly had her reasons.

"I was thinking, if I randomly find a whistleblower to send out a message, saying that there is a Jindan cultivator and his young apprentice who are hanging around in the demon world, I don't know how much of a sensation it will cause. This is another war between the demon and human worlds.

Prelude?"

"You..." Gouzhu was speechless for a moment. He actually had the idea of ​​​​killing her to silence her, but this woman's realm was as high as Xudan Perfect, and he couldn't beat her again and again.

"Don't think about it. I gave you my Taoist companion for free, what else do you want to think about?" Lin Meier's eyes flashed coldly.

"Do you think I am so worthless? I also told you that I have to do something today. You can get it if you want to, or if you don't want to!"

"..."

Just as Gou Zhu was about to put up a desperate resistance, he felt a wave of divine thoughts surge in, engulfing him in an instant. He immediately felt Lian Ling's aura.

However, in the past, Lian Ling's communication with his spiritual thoughts was not so violent, and they always appeared calmly in his sea of ​​consciousness. This time, however, he was surrounded by a sudden violent sand storm.

When the wind and sand cleared, he felt that he was in another world completely different from Taibai Lin Tianchi.

Although he had never seen this piece of heaven and earth, he had an idea in his mind, and understood that it was in the Earth Emperor Map. Lian Ling had already shown him the function of the Earth Emperor Map in his spiritual thoughts. She also relied on this

Only then did he escape the pursuit of the Crane King’s consciousness.

What Gouzhu saw was a mountainous area, but it was definitely not a snow-capped mountain like Taibai Mountain. Instead, it was much more elegant. The mountains here were lush and lush, with clusters of flowers and gurgling water. It felt a bit like the jade peaks in the south of the Yangtze River.

The place where Gouzhu was located was on the top of a mountain. The top of the mountain was shrouded in clouds and mist. A pool of steaming water in front of it was obviously Lian Ling's favorite hot spring. She was sitting in the water, half lying on a rock.

Only the head and neck and a section of snow shoulder are exposed, floating in the water like silk.

The bone-deep wound on her shoulder was still there, and there was still black air lingering in it. But most of her body was soaked in the hot spring, and the pain seemed to have eased a lot. She did not open her eyes, but leaned against it as if she was comfortable.

On the rock behind me, I closed my eyes and meditated.

"Master..." As the saying goes, don't look at any evil, Gouzhu moved his steps until he reached a rock that was enough to block his sight. He was about to pay his respects to the master when he heard Lian Ling ask softly in the hot spring: "She is very beautiful, aren't you tempted?"

Already?"

Gouzhu thought to himself, if a stunning beauty is clamoring to marry you in front of you, if you are not tempted by such a good thing, then you are not a normal man, but you definitely can't say that.

His mind turned, and he was about to answer when he suddenly felt a sharp sword energy like the wind silently surrounding him from all sides, but he didn't even see the shadow of the sword. Then there was a strange clicking sound, and the area in front of him

The boulder, which was as tall as a person, collapsed inexplicably and turned into a pile of gravel.

He knelt down with a pop, crying and shouting: "No way. I am loyal to my master and will never dare to collude with heretics!"

Lian Ling closed his eyes and smiled and said: "I'm serious. How can I interfere with your opportunity? Just be clear-sighted."

"Master, since you are injured and we have provoked someone like the Crane King who is not easy to mess with, why not just go back to the Blood Lake to recuperate. Then I don't want the Ten Thousand Years Demonic Ginseng King. Isn't it just forming pills? There will be many opportunities in the future.

.”

Gou Zhu thought to himself, if I don't show some substantive attentiveness at this time, I'm afraid I'll end up like this stone.

As expected, Lian Ling nodded slightly with satisfaction: "You still have some filial piety. But..." She changed the subject.

"No matter whether you form an elixir or not, whether you return to Blood Lake or Jade Peak, or even return to your hometown on Qingshi Street to become a mortal, you will not be able to escape this calamity."

"Can't hide?"

"Yes, haven't you heard of the Heavenly Tribulation? This Heavenly Tribulation is caused naturally because of your practice of "Xuan Ming Nine Death Yin Cultivation Technique". This is just like spring goes and autumn comes, the sun rises and sets. It is the order of heaven and earth, and it is natural.

The rules have nothing to do with where you stay.

"Of course, originally if you chose not to form the elixir, this calamity could be postponed. But now that the calamity has been triggered, it is like the arrow has left the string, and there is no possibility of taking it back. If you successfully form the elixir this time, you can still postpone it.

There is still a glimmer of hope. If the elixir formation fails, death is certain."

Lian Lingyun said these words calmly, but Gouzhu was stunned for a moment. Why, just forming a pill and making life or death uncertain?

He shouldn't have heard too many stories about failed elixir formation. You know, there are nearly ten thousand monks in the Jade Palace. How many of them can successfully form elixirs?

There are less than fifty Void Pill monks in the entire Jade Palace. Although there is indeed a certain danger in failed pill formation, most people can still survive and even persevere to try again and again.

It's just the second or third time that even if the elixir can be formed successfully, the level of the elixir will be reduced. At least it won't be of high grade.

But this also has its advantages. If you are unable to make a high-grade elixir, you can directly buy second-hand medium-grade or low-grade demon ginseng without having to attend the demon ginseng conference.

This path doesn't seem to be the case for Gouzhu. Could it be that he has to become an elixir to survive? "Why... is this?"

"Do you know what a Foundation-Building Tribulation is? What is a Golden Core Tribulation? The stronger the monk who overcomes the Tribulation, the greater the power of the Heavenly Tribulation. If a Foundation-Building monk overcomes the Tribulation, it is usually a Foundation-Building Tribulation.

If a golden elixir cultivator overcomes a tribulation, it is usually a golden elixir tribulation.

"Back then, I met destiny in my own stele, and had the chance to use root marrow as external medicine to advance to the golden elixir, so I was exposed to the heavenly calamity. But at that time, I was still the body of the Zi Mansion, and the heavenly calamity I was exposed to was the purple.

The calamity of the house.

"The Void-Destroying Skull struck by the three Zifu resurrected corpses was the last level in the catastrophe. If I hadn't passed that level, I would have failed. If I had passed that level, I would have had a huge impact.

It might be a golden elixir, but it turned out to be true."

Gou Zhu thought to himself, didn't I force you to bear that blow to the skull?

Lian Ling nodded contentedly and said: "That is to say, you used your foundation-building body to help me resist once, and I was able to survive the tribulation safely. Therefore, when you survive the tribulation this time, my teacher also wants to reciprocate and help you resist a little bit.

"But the power of foundation building is inherently small, so being involved in the tribulation of the Purple Mansion, the impact on the tribulation power can be ignored. And I use the power of the golden elixir to block the tribulation for you, but it can easily trigger the tribulation power, causing the original tribulation power.

A foundation-building disaster escalated into a golden elixir disaster...

"I tried my best to avoid getting involved, and just waited aside, hoping to save your life at the critical moment. Unexpectedly, I encountered a battle with the Crane King, but I felt that this golden elixir disaster had been triggered and was unavoidable.

"

My head is full of black lines, and I wonder if you have done bad things with good intentions?

He thought about it carefully and finally came to his senses. Oh my god, I was obviously just a foundation-building monk who formed elixirs, but the calamity I induced was actually at the level of golden elixirs? How much higher is this?

Aren’t I the one who has been taken advantage of? Can’t I hide? Isn’t it okay if I don’t form the elixir? If I don’t form the elixir, I will die.

"But you don't have to worry too much." Lian Ling smiled sheepishly, "This time, whether I live or die, I will go through this disaster with you."

"..."

Gouzhu thought to himself, what does "regardless of life or death" mean? If you say that, I will be more worried. What's the use of having to compensate you if everyone is dead? Is it possible to have a ghost marriage on the road to hell?

"Just now I did some calculations again to see if there is any hope of successfully overcoming the tribulation. It's just that there are so many clues here that it really exceeds my ability to calculate. But what I can be sure of is,"

Lian Ling's eyes suddenly became more alert: "This Crane Girl is your opportunity and one of the key helpers for you to successfully overcome the disaster. This girl is asking for something from you now, and she is willing to give her life. If you miss it,

, that would be a pity.”

"Well," Gou Zhu thought to himself, what are you trying to do? If I really accept this crane girl, I won't have to wait for the catastrophe to die, so I have to bite the bullet and swear, "This disciple will never marry a foreign female demon."
