Seeing An Ling'er's angry expression, Lin Che felt slightly embarrassed and said, "It was a misunderstanding. It was just a joke."
In any case, he just saw some pictures that he shouldn't have seen, and he felt somewhat guilty, so he changed the subject and asked: "How did you complete the task I taught you?"
An Ling'er raised her hand lightly, and with a flash of light, she saw twelve treasure medicine plants emerging on the ground in front of Lin Che.
An Ling'er glanced at Lin Che and said, "I have been searching outside the valley for two days, and these are all the treasures I have collected."
Lin Che took a look and found that An Ling'er had really gained a lot this time. Among the twelve precious medicines, five of them contained the power of thirty rules and reached the second level. The remaining seven
Each strain also contains the power of the ten rules and reaches the level of first-order treasure medicine.
Lin Che handed one of the second-level medicinal herbs into An Ling'er's hands and said, "This ice spirit flame grass should be able to repair the injuries on your meridians."
An Ling'er not only reached the seventh level of Zifu, but was also a second-level genius. It was only because his meridians were injured by Gu Daoling's sword that the second-level genius' ability to cross levels could not be used at all.
This gave Lin Che an opportunity to take advantage of.
To be precise, if An Ling'er had not been injured, even if Lin Che and Black Tiger teamed up, there would be no way they could be a match for this woman.
But now, Lin Che had planted the Tianxin Gu poison in her, and he was not afraid that she would pose a threat to him after she recovered from her injuries, so she gave her this precious medicine.
An Ling'er was slightly startled. She obviously didn't expect Lin Che to do this, but she didn't show any politeness at all. She directly took the Ice Flame Spirit Grass and said in a calm tone: "Thank you, Master."
Lin Che observed her for a while and said: "My strength was originally not as good as yours, but now you have fallen into my control. I know you may be very unconvinced. But do you believe it? In a year at most, I will
Completely surpass you and leave you behind?"
An Ling'er's face revealed a strange look, and she said, "One year? Do you overestimate yourself, or underestimate me?"
An Ling'er, as one of the five flag-bearers of the Blood Moon Sect, is definitely one of the top geniuses among the younger generation in the sect, in addition to the saint son and saint maiden of the main altar.
Even though Lin Che's four unique talents are indeed incredible, but after all, she is only about twenty years old. She does not believe that this young man can catch up with her in just one year.
What's more, as An Ling'er is also a genius, it's impossible to stand still this year. In any case, is the young man in front of him a little too confident, or even arrogant?
"Then let's make a bet..."
Lin Che's face was filled with a confident smile, and she said: "One year later, you and I will fight again. If I can't defeat you, then I will help you get rid of the Tianxin Gu poison in your body, but if I defeat you..."
An Ling'er said directly: "In one year, if you can defeat me with your true strength, I will surrender to you willingly. From now on, I will never have any dissatisfaction with you."
"Okay, that's it. But within this year, you still have to obey my orders. But don't worry, I won't make you do anything too difficult, nor will I let you do anything in the Blood Moon Sect.
If I am easily exposed and fall into danger, as long as you can help me at critical moments in the future, it will be enough, how about it?" Lin Che said.
An Ling'er showed a thoughtful expression and finally nodded.
Seeing this, Lin Che smiled slightly and was quite satisfied with the outcome of this conversation.
He understood that with An Ling'er's noble status as the Qingmu flag bearer within the Blood Moon Sect, it was naturally not an easy task for her to surrender willingly, so it was necessary to take a step-by-step approach to gradually break down her resistance.
Only after a year later, after truly defeating her with her own strength, will she be willing to work for him. As for now, there is no need to rush.
"Boom."
Just as Lin Che and An Ling'er were talking, a strong earthquake suddenly hit the area where they were.
The mountains on both sides shook wildly, causing countless gravels to splash down, and fine cracks cracked open on the valley floor, as if there had been an earthquake.
"Ouch——"
Immediately afterwards, countless roars of wild beasts came from the outside world of this mountain range. The huge sound waves gathered together and were full of shocking power.
"Tide of Dark Beasts." Feeling such a strong movement, Lin Che immediately realized something.
He stepped on the ground with his toes, and flew directly to the highest point of the valley, looking out in the direction of the outside world. Due to his cultivation of the Sky Eye, the black mist that filled the mountains could no longer block his sight, so next, he
I saw an extremely shocking scene.
I saw that the barrier deep in the Demon Sealed Forbidden Land had disappeared without knowing when, and countless savage beasts rushed out of it. There were black giant apes as huge as hills, colorful scale pythons that were hundreds of feet long, and six-winged beasts on their backs.
, an eagle with red light all over its body...
Every savage beast exudes an astonishingly ferocious aura, just like a flood that bursts its banks, sweeping across the land, leaving a messy scene wherever it goes.
"Today is the night of the full moon, and such a terrifying tide of beasts actually broke out in the Demon Sealed Forbidden Land!" After witnessing this scene with her own eyes, Lin Che's expression looked quite horrified.
"Uh-huh."
The black tiger jumped out of nowhere and jumped onto Lin Che's shoulders. He also showed a solemn expression and said: "I have long noticed that this area is not ordinary weird. Lin Che, do you know that the explosive beast here is
The reason for the tide?”
Lin Che thought for a while and said: "According to Senior Chu Tianhong's guess, there seems to be a taboo existence deep in the Demon Sealed Forbidden Land. It is enslaving thousands of savage beasts, so that whenever the moon comes, these savage beasts
On a full night, scatter out to capture living beings for sacrifice."
"This statement is similar to what I speculated..."
Black Tiger showed a slightly thoughtful expression, and then said: "However, I am more certain than him that the existence deep in the forbidden land should be a powerful 'demon king' who is about to be born."
"Demon King?" Lin Che asked in surprise.
Black Tiger nodded, "Among the thousands of races, only the monster clan attaches great importance to the inheritance of blood. As a member of the demon clan, I naturally understand these things better than the human monks..."
"If the emperor's prediction is correct, the existence deep in the forbidden land can enslave so many savage beasts, it must be relying on the pressure of his own blood. And among the monster beasts, there are only 'demon king' levels, or even
Only a creature at the 'Demon King' level can have such a powerful bloodline suppression against other savage beasts."
Lin Che looked at Black Tiger and wondered: "If, as you said, there really is a powerful creature at the level of a demon king deep in the Demon Sealed Forbidden Land, then why does it need so many life sacrifices?"
Black Tiger explained: "The birth of a demon king requires extremely huge energy as support. If it simply absorbs the essence of the sun and moon between heaven and earth, it may take countless years to cultivate to the point where it can break out of its shell. That's why it needs
A large number of savage beasts came to capture living creatures for it as sacrifices, and by sacrificing to the heaven and earth, they obtained the majestic energy it needed..."
Lin Che said in surprise: "Are you saying that the demon king creature deep in the forbidden land is probably just an egg and has not really been born?"
