"Sect Master?"
Upon hearing Gu He's words, Yun Yun was first stunned, then a touch of crimson immediately appeared on her pretty face. She said in embarrassment, "Elder Gu He, don't make such jokes."
Gu He looked into Yun Yun's eyes, his expression very serious. "I'm not joking, Sect Master. How about it? Do you dare to accept this bet?"
Looking at Gu He's serious expression, Yun Yun's heart inexplicably felt a bit flustered. She lowered her head, normally graceful and confident, now unsure how to respond. Scenes of Gu He appearing at a critical moment last night and saving her flashed in her mind. For a moment, her heart was in chaos.
Seeing Yun Yun fall into silence, a hint of disappointment flashed in Gu He's eyes. It seemed that he was a bit too hasty. Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit heavy, he smiled and slowly said, "Since the Sect Master is unwilling, then let me change it..."
"Wait!"
Before Gu He finished speaking, Yun Yun suddenly raised her head, looking at Gu He, and said seriously, "Elder Gu He, I bet with you!"
At these words, Gu He was stunned, looking at Yun Yun with a serious expression. A faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he said slowly, "Then it's settled!"
Yun Yun also smiled, her beautiful eyes full of tenderness, charming and moving.
"However, if you want to take Yanran as your disciple, you still need her consent." At this moment, Yun Yun suddenly thought of a problem.
Nalan Yanran had always been strong-willed and disliked being forced. If she didn't want to be Gu He's disciple, even Yun Yun would be helpless. Moreover, Yun Yun didn't want to force her precious disciple.
Nodding, Gu He said, "Naturally, I will let that girl willingly accept me as her master." He was quite confident about this. Just a little girl—could he not handle her? Back then, when he bestowed treasures upon Xiao Yi Xian, he saw the envy in Nalan Yanran's eyes. Gu He believed that with just a transmission of skills and teachings, he could easily control that little girl.
Yun Yun smiled and said, "Since you are so confident, then that's the best."
"However..."
After a moment of hesitation, Yun Yun spoke again, "Since Elder Gu He wants to be Yanran's teacher, I'll leave the matter of obtaining the Purple Spirit Crystal to you."
"Purple Spirit Crystal?"
At these words, Gu He was slightly stunned. Then he reached out, and a purple crystal stone appeared. Gu He looked at Yun Yun, smiling, "Are you talking about this Purple Spirit Crystal?"
Yun Yun stared at the Purple Spirit Crystal in Gu He's hand, her eyes showing surprise. For a moment, she couldn't react. "How did the Purple Spirit Crystal...?"
Gu He smiled slightly mysteriously, "Sect Master, take a guess. Where are we right now?"
Hearing this, Yun Yun subconsciously looked inside the cave. When she saw the densely embedded purple crystals on the cave wall, a flash of realization crossed her mind. In the next moment, Yun Yun exclaimed in surprise, "This is the den of the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King!"
Gu He nodded, "Yes, this is indeed the den of the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King. I've already obtained the Purple Spirit Crystal."
Yun Yun completely understood now. Since even the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King had died in Gu He's hands, occupying its den, there was nothing surprising. The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King was a king in this area of the Magic Beast Mountain Range, and its den must have treasures. If she had the strength to kill the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, she would inevitably come here to plunder.
After thinking about it, Yun Yun took out an ancient scroll from her spatial ring and handed it to Gu He, "Elder Gu He, since the Purple Spirit Crystal is already in your hands, I'll also leave the matter of refining the Purple Spirit Pill to you."
Yun Yun collected the materials to be given to Gu He for refining. Now she decided to hand over the entire prescription to him.
Gu He looked at the scroll in Yun Yun's hand, took it slowly, and nodded slightly.
"Well, you continue to rest. When you recover, I will help you lift the seal." Gu He comforted Yun Yun and got up slowly.
...
Cloud Mist Sect.
Gu He's residence.
The yard was quiet, without a sound.
"Mmm..."
A slight murmur echoed in a room.
On the bed, Xiao Yi Xian's eyelids moved slightly, slowly waking up.
There was a black powder on her delicate lips, looking somewhat abrupt. In her eyes, a fleeting confusion appeared and disappeared. In Xiao Yi Xian's mind, scenes of herself swallowing poison last night quickly flashed. Then, Xiao Yi Xian swept her eyes around the room, looking at the black mist lingering in the air. With a thought, she began to perform the Poison Devouring Condensation Pill technique.
Afterward, Xiao Yi Xian formed mysterious hand seals with her hands.
As the hand seals were formed, the black gas in the room seemed to be summoned and rushed towards Xiao Yi Xian, then was completely absorbed.
After a moment, the originally dense black gas in the room had been completely absorbed.
In the center of the cyclone of Dou Qi within Xiao Yi Xian's body, a black pill was suspended.
Threads of black gas, through the cyclone of Dou Qi, gradually merged into the black pill.
After the last wisp of black gas merged into the black pill, Xiao Yi Xian, who was on the bed, slowly stopped her movements and then opened her eyes.
Rising slowly, Xiao Yi Xian's consciousness entered her body to check her cultivation.
After a moment, a satisfied smile appeared on Xiao Yi Xian's lips.
Eight-Star Dou Master!
She indeed made a breakthrough.
If her teacher knew that she had broken through to Eight-Star Dou Master, he would surely be very happy.
Thinking of her teacher, Xiao Yi Xian's mood, which had just broken through, suddenly became somewhat depressed.
Her teacher had been gone for more than ten days.
She didn't know when he would return.
Suddenly, Xiao Yi Xian remembered that before her teacher left, he mentioned leaving her a reward in his room.
As long as she broke through to Eight-Star Dou Master, she could go to his room to take it.
I wonder what reward my teacher left for me?
With a bit of anticipation in her heart, Xiao Yi Xian directly headed towards Gu He's room.
Soon, Xiao Yi Xian arrived at Gu He's room.
Creak!
Without hesitation, Xiao Yi Xian pushed open the door.
Upon entering, Xiao Yi Xian saw three things on the table.
Two jade bottles and a blue soft armor.
"Is this the reward my teacher left for me?"
With a hint of curiosity in her eyes, Xiao Yi Xian came to the table, examining the three items in front of her.
Xiao Yi Xian noticed that each of these three items had a small note attached.
She picked up the note on the blue soft armor. Her beautiful eyes scanned it.
"Ice Heart Armor, embedded with several fifth-grade ice-attribute magic cores, astonishing defense, enough to withstand a blow from a Dou Emperor without dying."
After reading the contents of the note, Xiao Yi Xian suddenly understood.
So, this note contains information about this blue soft armor.
Her teacher is indeed thoughtful, even preparing small notes.
Xiao Yi Xian, feeling delighted, picked up the Ice Heart Armor. When she touched it, a cool sensation spread, making her quite fond of it.
Ice Heart Armor.
Fifth-grade magic core armor.
Able to withstand a blow from a Dou Emperor.
Information about the Ice Heart Armor flashed in Xiao Yi Xian's mind, and she couldn't help but smile.
Her teacher is really good to her!
Even such treasures are given to her.
With this soft armor, she'll be much safer in the future.
Xiao Yi Xian lovingly touched the Ice Heart Armor and then happily put it into her spatial ring.
Taking a glance at the two jade bottles on the table, Xiao Yi Xian's gaze then fell on one.
Taking the bottle, Xiao Yi Xian looked at the introduction on it.
"Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill, peak fourth-grade pill. After consumption, it can increase one star in cultivation for a Dou Grandmaster."
It's actually a pill that can increase cultivation!
After reading the introduction on the jade bottle, Xiao Yi Xian's beautiful eyes lit up.
Although this Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill is aimed at Dou Grandmaster cultivation, Xiao Yi Xian doesn't mind at all.
Because, in her opinion, now that she has broken through to Eight-Star Dou Master, it won't be long before she breaks through to Dou Grandmaster.
My teacher has prepared the pills for breaking through to Dou Grandmaster in advance.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yi Xian felt sweet in her heart.
After putting away the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill, Xiao Yi Xian looked at the last jade bottle.
Taking the bottle, Xiao Yi Xian looked at the introduction on it.
"Soul Tempering Pill, peak fifth-grade pill. After consumption, it has a slight effect in enhancing soul power."
"This is actually a pill that can enhance soul power!"
After reading the introduction of the Soul Tempering Pill, a hint of surprise appeared on Xiao Yi Xian's pretty face.
Subconsciously, she remembered that her teacher had mentioned some things about soul power before he left.
Soul power is the foundation of living beings. Without a soul, there is nothing. If the soul does not perish, there is a glimmer of hope. Regarding this mysterious thing, anyone must maintain a certain amount of reverence.
In general, it is extremely difficult to enhance soul power.
Only when there is a breakthrough in cultivation, can soul power become slightly stronger.
But the intensity of this enhancement is very weak.
Soul power is a profound and mysterious thing, and ordinary people can only let it develop naturally, and it is impossible to control it.
Even some alchemists only know how to use soul power but do not have a thorough understanding of it.
Because enhancing soul power is extremely difficult, Xiao Yi Xian was surprised by the effect of the Soul Tempering Pill.
Although this Soul Tempering Pill can only slightly enhance the strength of soul power, just based on this, its value is not inferior to an ordinary sixth-grade pill.
"My teacher actually gave me such a good thing." Xiao Yi Xian looked at the jade bottle in her hand with joy.
With this Soul Tempering Pill, she believes that she will soon be able to impact the realm of a third-grade alchemist.
...
Demon Beast Mountain, Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's den.
Gu He was meditating and cultivating when a series of system notification sounds echoed in his mind.
"Ding, detected that the host bestowed the second disciple, Xiao Yi Xian, with the fifth-grade magic core armor Ice Heart Armor. Congratulations to the host for triggering a ten thousand-fold return, obtaining the eighth-grade magic core armor Profound Ice Holy Armor."
"The Profound Ice Holy Armor has been sent to the system space. Please pay attention to check, host."
"Sect Master?"
Upon hearing Gu He's words, Yun Yun was first stunned, then a touch of crimson immediately appeared on her pretty face. She said in embarrassment, "Elder Gu He, don't make such jokes."
Gu He looked into Yun Yun's eyes, his expression very serious. "I'm not joking, Sect Master. How about it? Do you dare to accept this bet?"
