Ma Xiaoyao is working hard to improve his strength, and Li Ming is working hard too! And the hard work he puts in is definitely no less than Ma Xiaoyao!
Another round of genetic modification is completed.
Li Ming stood in the open space, waving his hands with joy on his face: "Hahaha... I am already a ninth-level warrior... It feels so good to be full of power... A ninth-level warrior... The dragon's genes are powerful
Ah... After the fusion, I was directly promoted from a fifth-level warrior to a ninth-level warrior... It's simply incredible..."
"Congratulations to Holy Master for your great increase in strength!" Dr. Lu congratulated.
"Li Ming, I am very happy to see that your strength has greatly increased." Han Yuanyuan's face was also full of joy.
"Go and find me the dragon's genes again! I will become a tenth-level warrior in one fell swoop!" Li Ming shouted excitedly.
"This..." Dr. Lu shook his head in embarrassment: "The dragon gene is hard to come by, it is too difficult to find... Even this time, a corpse of a dragon was accidentally discovered, and it took a lot of effort to extract it.
A vial of genes..."
"I don't care!" Li Ming waved his hand: "You must find the dragon gene as soon as possible!"
Dr. Lu nodded helplessly: "Okay, I'll do my best."
"Yuanyuan, go and get some good wine and food. Let's celebrate tonight." Li Ming said with a smile.
"Okay, no problem." Han Yuanyuan agreed happily.
"Ma Xiaoyao! Just wait for me! When I become a tenth-level warrior, I will go to you for revenge. I will make you kneel in front of me and beg me!!!" Li Ming's eyes flashed with bloody light.
…
Three months passed in a flash.
In the past three months, Ma Xiaoyao spent most of his time practicing martial arts, and would only take a short break when he was particularly tired.
When he was resting, Ma Xiaoyao would concentrate on studying the fiery red bead in his mind.
Counting the time, it has been more than five months since this fiery red bead entered Ma Xiaoyao's mind. It has always been calm and without any fluctuations. Ma Xiaoyao tried his best to force the bead out.
The beads in his mind are destined to be a hidden danger, and he never knows when they will explode and give Ma Xiaoyao a severe blow.
"What on earth is this bead? How did it come into my mind?" Ma Xiaoyao said to himself. He asked Hu Yandong and Ouyang Wuwei, but they couldn't tell the origin of the bead.
"well……"
Ma Xiaoyao sighed softly: "Is it a blessing or a curse if the beads remain in your mind?"
"Xiaoyao!" Ouyang Zilan ran in with excitement: "Look what I got for you."
"What?" Ma Xiaoyao asked doubtfully.
"What do you think?" Ouyang Zilan put the box in her hand on the table and looked at Ma Xiaoyao with a smile: "Guess, you will get a prize!"
"I'm not a god, and I don't have clairvoyance, so how can I know what's in the box?" Ma Xiaoyao smiled bitterly and said, "Don't make things difficult for me."
"It's really boring." Ouyang Zilan pouted her little mouth: "Forget it, I won't let you guess." At this point, Ouyang Zilan reached out and opened the box, and a white halo burst out from the box, illuminating it instantly.
The entire room was filled, and then a faint fragrance wafted out of the box. Ma Xiaoyao just smelled it and felt much more energetic.
"This is..." Ma Xiaoyao stood up suddenly and looked at the open box with surprise: "This is... snow lotus? Tianshan snow lotus?" There was a white flower in the box, crystal clear and beautiful.
Huan, it is very similar to Tianshan Snow Lotus, no, it is not similar, it is Tianshan Snow Lotus!
"You are quite knowledgeable." Ouyang Zilan smiled: "Yes, this is snow lotus, but it is not Tianshan Snow Lotus! It is Yinshan Snow Lotus!"
"Yinshan Snow Lotus?" Ma Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment.
"Yinshan Mountain is the tallest mountain in the secret realm. It is covered with heavy snow all year round. This snow lotus grows on the top of the mountain. It is said to have a lifespan of thousands of years. In the entire secret realm, only Yinshan Mountain is rich in this kind of snow lotus. You can't see it in other places."
"Yinshan Snow Lotus? It's almost exactly the same as the Tianshan Snow Lotus outside..." Ma Xiaoyao sighed.
"Snow lotus has very strict requirements on the living environment. First of all, it must be far away from the ground and cannot come into contact with the soil. Secondly, the surrounding temperature must be very cold. In addition, there are some harsh conditions. After thinking about it, it can only grow on snowy mountains. You
The Tianshan Mountain in my mouth should also be a snow mountain, right?" Ouyang Zilan asked.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "Yes, you are right, Tianshan Mountain is indeed a snow mountain."
"In order to get this thousand-year-old snow lotus, I spent a huge price and almost lost my life. Xiaoyao, if you eat this snow lotus quickly, you will definitely improve your strength a lot."
"Zilan, thank you for running for me during this time. Thank you very much."
"Are you polite to me? Don't forget, I am your woman."
"Yes, you are my woman, my woman for life! As long as I, Ma Xiaoyao, am still alive, I will never let you down!" Ma Xiaoyao made a solemn promise.
"Hurry up and take snow lotus." Ouyang Zilan urged.
"From now on, I'm going to retreat! Don't bother me unless there's something very special." Ma Xiaoyao made a decisive decision to retreat. If you want to refine such a big snow lotus, it will definitely not be possible in a short time.
Arrived.
Ouyang Zilan nodded: "You can retreat in peace. With me guarding you, no one can disturb you."
In this way, Ma Xiaoyao went into seclusion.
…
Imperial City.
Tai Chi Hall.
Jin Tianwei's eyes were red and he roared angrily: "It's been half a year! I still haven't found any trace of Ma Xiaoyao and the green-haired monster. What do you do for food? Trash! They are all a bunch of trash!!!"
A group of guards were kneeling below, all with their heads lowered and not daring to take a breath.
"Why are you still standing here? Why don't you go out and look for Ma Xiaoyao and the green-haired monster!" Jin Tianwei roared.
"Yes!" The guards all stood up and ran towards the gate in panic. The emperor was furious and must not be provoked, otherwise he would become a punching bag.
"The eagle stays." Jin Tianwei shouted softly.
The eagle that was about to leave immediately stopped and waited for Jin Tianwei's instructions.
Jin Tianwei stared at the eagle: "How is the matter I asked you to investigate?"
"Your Majesty!" Xiong Ying clasped his fists and replied, "I have investigated clearly. There is a group of people who have close contacts with Ma Xiaoyao."
"Who is there?"
"The ten centurions of the White Tiger Banner camp are Xiong Kuohai, Ding Chunming, Xiao Dong, Lu Wei, Meng Xu, Chen Ying, Bai Guang, Shi Hai, Wu Sheng, Hu Bugui, all members of the Ouyang family, and one named
People from Niu Liu..."
"Are you sure Ma Xiaoyao cares about these people?"
"Definitely care!"
"Okay, arrest all these people and spread the news. If Ma Xiaoyao doesn't show up within a month, all these people will be executed."
"Yes." The eagle took the order and left.
"Ma Xiaoyao!" A sneer appeared at the corner of Jin Tianwei's mouth: "Do you think I can't do anything to you if you can't hide?"
…
Unknowingly, Ma Xiaoyao has been in seclusion for a month. Every day there are muffled sounds in the room, occasionally accompanied by one or two suppressed screams of pain. If he hadn't restrained himself, Ouyang Zilan would have rushed in long ago.
.
"Don't worry, Mr. Ma will be fine." Hu Yandong comforted him.
"The medicinal power of Millennium Snow Lotus is too strong. You will definitely suffer some pain when refining it. This is normal." Ouyang Wuwei said.
"I'm really worried... worried that Xiaoyao won't be able to bear it..." Ouyang Zilan bit her lip tightly.
"You have to have confidence in Master Ma!"
"I have seen Ma Xiaoyao's face. He is a very blessed person. No matter what difficulties he encounters, he can turn danger into good fortune in the end."
"I hope so." Ouyang Zilan sighed softly.
…
A few days later in the afternoon.
Hu Yandong walked in with a gloomy face: "Something happened."
"What happened?" Ouyang Wuwei and Ouyang Zilan both turned their heads and looked over.
"I just found out that Jin Tianwei ordered the arrest of many people...all of whom are related to Mr. Ma." At this point, Hu Yandong paused: "Including people from the Ouyang family..."
"What?" Ouyang Wuwei swayed and almost fell to the ground: "Jin Tianwei captured my tribe..."
"Despicable and shameless!" Ouyang Zilan was trembling with anger: "If you can't find Xiaoyao, you just catch others to vent your anger. It is really despicable! This kind of person is not worthy of being the emperor at all!"
"Jin Tianwei also released news that Master Ma suddenly didn't show up within a month, and he would order everyone to be executed..."
"asshole!"
"The bastard who suffered a thousand blows! I won't let him go!"
"Don't worry, there is still a month left, we can slowly think of a solution."
"Besides robbing the law field, what else can be done?"
"Jin Tianwei will definitely dispatch a large number of people to guard the magic field, and maybe he himself will be there to guard it. With the strength of the few of us, we will only die if we go there."
"What should we do?"
"...It would be great if Xiaoyao could get out of seclusion... He is smarter than us, and he will definitely be able to figure it out..."
Several people got together to discuss it all day long, but they couldn't come up with a sound solution.
"How about... go in and ask Master Ma?" Ouyang Wuwei suggested.
"No!" Ouyang Zilan flatly refused: "Now is the critical moment of seclusion. You must not disturb him, otherwise all your efforts may be wasted."
"Then what should we do? Just watch the clan members being killed like this?" Ouyang Wuwei frowned: "Zi Lan, don't forget, your father and mother are also involved..."
Ouyang Zilan took a deep breath: "Grandpa, I'm worried for you! But I really can't disturb Xiaoyao now! Let's do this... wait a few more days, if Xiaoyao doesn't come out, I... I'll go in and call him...
"
"Okay, just wait a few more days." Ouyang Wuwei nodded helplessly.
The following days were like years for Ouyang Zilan and others. They looked forward to Ma Xiaoyao coming out of seclusion every day, but every time they ended up disappointed. Ma Xiaoyao seemed to be addicted to seclusion and just wouldn't come out, leaving Ouyang Zilan and others.
