Taihuang Star Seal

Ding Chen made up a story about a "crazy old grandfather" and said that the other party only taught him how to make a pill recipe to heal "the five metals summoning spirits and the injuries caused by calamity".

Nothing else.

It was such a ridiculous reason, but Xiao Zhenxiong and Sima Zhong actually believed it!

In fact, they not only believed it.

There is even a feeling that “it should be this way”.

This is because, the seemingly "absurd" statement given by Ding Chen at this moment is much easier than making people believe that he is so young and has already mastered the alchemy skills of the "peak of the great martial arts realm"!

"No wonder this kid has such a superb alchemy skill even though his hair hasn't even grown out yet."

"If I had been enlightened by a master since I was young, and had specialized in only one set of pill formulas from then on..."

"Ding Chen's alchemy skills are not as powerful as imagined."

Sima Zhong felt slightly disappointed, but also breathed a sigh of relief.

What disappointed him was that, as a result, the value of using Ding Chen as a "Dan slave" was greatly reduced.

He heaved a sigh of relief because Sima Zhong's self-esteem, which had been severely damaged by Ding Chen, was finally healed by this so-called "truth".

But at this moment, Xiao Zhenxiong seemed to suddenly think of something.

He stared at Ding Chen with his eyes fixed on him, and asked word by word, "Besides teaching you this set of pill recipes, did that crazy old man teach you anything else?"

"For example, performing the 'Five Metals Summoning Spirits' technique?"

"Or maybe I can tell you who else in this world also possesses the secret method of 'Five Metals Summoning Spirits'?"

The reason why City Lord Xiao asked this question was mainly because he wanted to know whether the secret method of "Five Metals Summoning Spirits" that he obtained by chance had been spread to the world through other channels.

If the other party answered "yes", Xiao Zhenxiong would definitely be very disappointed.

But if Ding Chen answered "no"...

That means that the secret method in Xiao Zhenxiong's hand is very likely to be an "unique copy" lost in the world, and will undoubtedly be even more valuable!

As long as he has this secret method in hand, Xiao Zhenxiong will be able to "create" more powerful people in the Condensation Spirit Realm with golden mysterious energy in the future!

By then, the entire Xiao family will prosper under his leadership!

Given time, becoming one of the top wealthy families in the imperial capital would not be a foolish dream...

Of course, the premise of all this is that he can always keep Ding Chen under his control, and make him an emotionless "alchemy machine" that can be called upon at any time, specifically to eliminate the side effects of "Five Metals Summoning Spirits" for the tribe members.

Ding Chen knew clearly what the other party was planning, but he pretended to be dumb and shook his head: "No."

"Hahahaha, okay, okay!"

Xiao Zhenxiong was overjoyed when he heard this.

In other words, the "Five Metals Summoning Spirits" method he mastered is unique to Scorpion Baba!

The next second, Xiao Zhenxiong's eyes when he looked at Sima Zhong suddenly became a little playful.

Because at present, there are not many people who know this secret.

Sima Zhong was one of them.

Xiao Zhenxiong didn't want this shortcut to the "Spirit Condensation Realm" that he had obtained to be leaked out before it could fully play its role, and he had to hand it over to the senior officials above him, or to the Daqian royal family...

"If all else fails, just kill this guy!"

"Then they framed his death on Luo Yangjie, the Luo family's newly defected elder."

"In short, the fact that this city lord has both the 'Five Metals Summoning Spirits' method and Ding Chen's 'antidote' in his hands must not be leaked!"

Thinking of this, a hint of murderous intent appeared in Xiao Zhenxiong's eyes!

Sima Zhong's face turned pale with fright.

When he felt the hidden murderous intent in Xiao Zhenxiong's eyes, he immediately guessed the other party's concerns.

So he forced a smile and said, "Ha, ha, City Lord Xiao, you know me. I am the most tight-lipped person!"

"Oh, is it so?"

Xiao Zhenxiong said with a fake smile: "But I think the dead are more strict!"

"Wait a minute, do it!"

Sima Zhong exclaimed and fell to his knees.

Then, he bit his finger cleanly and swore to the sky: "I, Sima Zhong, swear a blood oath here that I will never reveal to anyone that the city lord knows the method of 'Five Metals Summoning Spirits'!"

"I will never tell anyone about the 'alchemy and healing' method that Ding Chen is proficient in."

"If you break this oath, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death!"

As we all know, the blood oath is closely related to the cultivator's destiny.

If you violate any of them, no matter whether it is the glorious path of cultivation or the mysterious way of heaven, you will be punished!

Xiao Zhenxiong narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking: "Sima Zhong's identity as the 'Master of Lingdan Tower' is still quite tricky."

"If he really died in the City Lord's Mansion..."

"Even if I can pin the crime on the Luo family's elder afterwards, the investigators sent by the imperial capital will be a big trouble!"

"Since this guy has wisely sworn a 'blood oath', it might not be a bad idea to spare his life."

Thus, the murderous intent that Xiao Zhenxiong had been preparing to unleash a second ago was instantly retracted into his body.

He quickly took a few steps to help Sima Zhong up, patted him on the shoulder and laughed, "Hahahaha, get up quickly, get up quickly!"

"This city lord is just joking with you. Look at you, why do you take it seriously?"

"Brother Sima, you are such a tough guy!"

"Haha, that's it, that's it."

Sima Zhong smiled on his face, but a thousand horses were already galloping through his heart.

"Damn you Xiao Zhenxiong, just pray that you don't fall into my hands."

"Otherwise... I will kill you!!"

At this time.

Xiao Zhenxiong held Sima Zhong's hand affectionately and showed him the list that Ding Chen had drawn up: "None of the things on this list are easy to get."

"I still need your help, brother!"

"Easy to say, easy to say."

Sima Zhong pretended to be frightened and nodded his head, saying, "As long as I have it in Lingdan Building, I can sell it to the city lord at the lowest price."

"But there is nothing in Lingdan Building..."

"Um?!"

Xiao Zhenxiong glared.

Sima Zhong gritted his teeth and said, "Even if Lingdan Tower doesn't have it, I will try my best to get it for you!"

"Hahahaha, good, this is my Xiao Zhenxiong's good brother!"

Xiao Zhenxiong smiled contentedly and patted Sima Zhong's shoulders loudly.

Afterwards, Xiao Zhenxiong followed Sima Zhong closely and went to Lingdan Tower together.

There was a tense situation as before.

City Lord Xiao will not let Sima Zhong out of his sight no matter what!

Ding Chen was pleased to see the two people fighting each other with ulterior motives.

Anyway, for him, whether it is Xiao Zhenxiong or Sima Zhong, they all deserve to die!

As long as he refines the [Eight Spirits Soul Refining Pill], Ding Chen will be fully confident that he can make these two guys pay the price they deserve...

The sun rises and the moon sets; stars appear and disappear.

Perhaps it is because the quality of the materials required for [Eight Spirit Soul Refining Pill] is too high.

By the time Xiao Zhenxiong got all the things together, twenty-six days had passed!

This evening.

Xiao Zhenxiong, dragging the reluctant Sima Zhong with him, rushed into the training room with three carts full of goods, urging Ding Chen to make the elixir for him...
