Chapter 556: Divine Demonic Energy
The choice seemed to be handed over to Shen Wansan, but Qi Xiu, Xu Zhitian, and Shen Wansan himself were all very clear about it.
He would not gamble on uncertain possibilities just to save money.
So Shen Wansan collected the prescription which was three or four hundred feet long.
"I will find all the medicinal materials for you as soon as possible. It shouldn't take too long."
Although the quantity and amount of the medicines on the prescription were unusually large, it was not a particularly difficult task for Shen Wansan, who owned Shen's Wanhuohang, a business spread throughout the Middle-earth and able to support half of the Taoist Alliance's expenses.
The only things that waste time are those magical herbs and precious medicines of the soul-level on the medicine list.
These things are almost impossible to collect in the secular world and can only be found through the internal channels of the Taoist Alliance.
Although Shen Wansan holds a high position in the Taoist Alliance, he is not one of the twelve attendants, so it would take some effort for him to get these magical herbs and precious medicines.
"Then I will return to the Shenxiao Sect and wait for news from the True Lord."
Nodding, Qi Xiu stood up and prepared to leave.
He is not a member of the Taoist Alliance, nor does he hold a position in the Taoist Alliance like Taoist Master Huang Yan. It is against the rules to stay in the Taoist Alliance's cave for a long time.
Besides, the headmaster Dongfang Qing has gone abroad and it is unknown when he will return.
Acting headmaster Dongfang Xiong is also in seclusion at the Dharma Cliff, trying to break through his soul.
If he had not returned in time during the Gao Tianxiong incident, it would have caused terrible consequences that are difficult to describe.
Therefore, as the deputy head of the Shenxiao Sect, he should still stay at the mountain gate to prevent the same vicious incident as last time from happening again.
"Okay, I'll let you know once I've found all the herbs."
Knowing that it was not appropriate for Qi Xiu to stay in Daomeng Cave for a long time, Shen Wansan nodded slightly:
"Please keep the token I gave you. If you encounter any trouble, you can use this token to mobilize all the manpower and material resources in Shen's Wanhuo Store as soon as possible.
But only once.”
"Thank you, Zhenzun."
After bowing and thanking the God of Wealth, Qi Xiu slowly backed away and left the golden treasure tower.
……
"While the fat man is searching for medicinal herbs, you have to work with me to improve your medicine skills.
Otherwise, with your skills, you may not be able to refine the [Heaven-Repairing Divine Medicine] in a thousand years."
On the way back to Shenxiao Sect, Xu Zhitian manifested himself and stood on the Qingyun with Qi Xiu, giving instructions loudly.
"Of course. I've been envious of Mr. Xu's skills and have long wanted to learn from him." Qi Xiu said with a smile.
As an innate master of medicine, Xu Zhitian has mastered all the recipes for elixirs in the world, and his medicine refining techniques have reached the pinnacle, making him invincible in the world.
He also refined elixirs such as the [Flying Immortal Pill].
Qi Xiu certainly couldn't let go of such a walking encyclopedia of medicine.
Over the years, his practice has always been based on his own exploration and understanding, with the help of the magical power of proficiency.
Now that he has such a best teacher in the world, how could he let it go.
Even if Xu Zhitian didn't mention it, he would take the initiative to come to the door.
"Hahaha, okay, okay, then I will reluctantly accept you as my student." Chatting and laughing all the way, Qi Xiu and Xu Zhitian returned to the mountain gate of Shenxiao Sect.
But just after entering the mountain gate, Qi Xiu's movements suddenly paused. He sensed something strange, and a purple color suddenly surged in his eyes. Using the full power of the Qi-gazing technique, he immediately found a clue.
In the mountain gate of the Shenxiao Sect, which is a sect of thunder magic, there is a faint trace of demonic energy wandering around at this moment.
Although this trace of demonic energy is extremely faint, it cannot be detected without special methods such as the Qi-Observing Technique.
But if there is a stain in a pool of clear water, even if it is only a tiny bit, it means that it is polluted.
Without a doubt, Qi Xiu immediately transformed himself into a ray of powerful lightning, which then turned into a divine power and headed straight for the Dharma-Preaching Cliff.
Preaching outside the cliff.
A group of elders of the Yun generation, led by Taoist Yunyang and Yunya, were walking out with worried looks on their faces. As soon as they raised their heads, they saw the surging and huge lightning in the sky rushing in from a very far distance, and when it landed, it turned into the appearance of Qi Xiu.
"Deputy Headmaster? You're back?"
Seeing Qi Xiu returning, all the elders immediately showed joy on their faces and bowed to greet him.
Although Qi Xiu is their junior, he now serves as the deputy headmaster, so they should greet him politely.
"Master uncles, there's no need to be so polite."
Waving his hand to signal all the elders of the Yun generation to stand up, Qi Xiu asked in a deep voice:
"I came back from outside, and as soon as I entered the mountain gate, I noticed a hint of demonic energy inside. What happened in the sect?"
Hearing Qi Xiu's question, the elders looked at each other, as if they didn't know where to start. Finally, the oldest Taoist Master Yunyang spoke:
"Deputy Headmaster, this is a long story. In the final analysis, it was all caused by the King of Dianchuan last time."
"Gao Tianxiong?" Qi Xiu frowned slightly when he heard that the incident originated from the King of Dianchuan.
"What's going on?"
“Last time, Gao Tianxiong used an insider to suddenly descend upon the gate of our Shenxiao Sect. Fortunately, the deputy sect leader returned in time to chase him away.
And this King of Dianchuan did not hesitate to use the secret line he had laid for hundreds of years and broke into the mountain gate of our Shenxiao Sect, in fact, he wanted to take something from our Shenxiao Sect. "With a serious look, Taoist Yunyang said in a deep voice.
"What did you take away?" Qi Xiu asked with a fixed gaze.
"The headquarters of the Ten Great Demon Sects of the Middle Ages - Hell Forest!"
"He wants Hellwood?"
Qi Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly and showed a hint of surprise. When he rushed back to Shenxiao Sect before, he did see Gao Tianxiong using all his strength to attack the Hell Forest.
But at that time he thought that Gao Tianxiong wanted to use this to create an unstoppable chaos in the Shenxiao Sect.
I didn't expect that Gao Tianxiong wanted to seize the headquarters of the ancient demon sect.
"What use does he have for the Hell Forest...
Um? wrong!
He didn't want Hell Forest.
He wants the artifact in the Hell Forest!"
Qi Xiu, who looked hesitant, suddenly thought of something and immediately understood why Gao Tianxiong suddenly broke in and intended to steal the Hell Forest when Dongfang Qing was not in the sect.
“The artifact in the Hell Forest is an innate great way artifact, with power that is unprecedented in history.
Back then, the founder of our sect spent a huge amount of money to use the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder City to put it into a dormant state, suppress it and seal it up.
But this time, because of Gao Tianxiong, the magic weapon was shaken and awakened a little.
This is also the reason why demonic energy suddenly appeared in the mountain gate.
Without the Supreme Master here, no one can control the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder City to seal the artifact again.
If we allow it to revive, our sect will be faced with a catastrophic disaster!"
After the whole story was revealed, all the elders of the Yun generation looked solemn, and at the same time, they were also angry towards the King of Dianchuan.
If this beast hadn't been planning to covet the Hell Realm artifact, the Shenxiao Sect wouldn't have suffered such a disaster!
