Chapter 18 Chapter 18 Mysterious Tattoo

Xiao Yan slowly landed on the top of the back mountain, looked at Yao Lao who was sitting cross-legged on the boulder, looking at him with a smile, cupped his fists and said, "Fortunately, I am not disgraceful!" Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Venerable Feng at the side couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, gave Xiao Yan a thumbs up, and said with a smile: "Good job." "Are you okay?" Yao Lao asked with a smile. "It's not dangerous." Xiao Yan spread his hands, and roughly explained the things in the ruins. "Is it the Soul Palace again..." Yao Lao nodded slightly, and there was a chill in his eyes.

Xiao Yan smiled, flicked his fingers, and a wooden box appeared in his hand, then the wooden box floated up into the air, and fell lightly in front of Yao Lao. It opened automatically, and the golden light shone out, revealing the baby-like baby inside. golden fruit. "It is indeed the baby soul fruit, and it is also the best quality gold baby soul fruit." Seeing this golden fruit, with Yao Lao's concentration, he couldn't help showing a look of surprise in his eyes. Xiao Yan nodded with a smile. There are two grades of Soul Infant Fruit, named Silver Grade Soul Infant Fruit and Gold Grade Soul Infant Fruit. The Soul Infant Fruit belongs to the latter.

"With this gold-grade baby soul fruit, the original soul energy that you have lost should be completely replenished." Venerable Feng stroked his beard and smiled. "Teacher, let's retreat today, and try to replenish the original soul energy, so that we can start refining the body..." Xiao Yan said. Yao Lao nodded with a smile, looked at Xiao Yan, and suddenly said softly: "Little guy, do you miss your father?" Hearing Yao Lao suddenly say this, Xiao Yan was startled for a moment, then fell silent, his lips were tightly pursed, and there was a trace of deep guilt in his eyes. Xiao Zhan was his own father, and the same blood flowed in his bones. When he was young, The latter doted on him in every possible way, even when his life was at its lowest point, that kind of doting still didn't fade for any reason, because they were father and son.

Simple two words, but there is a blood connection that cannot be erased by anything. Counting the time, the time since his father fell into the hands of the Soul Palace was actually longer than that of Yao Lao. When he was captured, Xiao Yanshang was just an immature boy who ran into the Misty Cloud Sect full of resentment. Since she was a child, she had placed great hopes on her, and she always firmly believed that Xiao Yan would change the Xiao family, and make this declining family truly become stronger. The current Xiao Yan has become a first-class powerhouse famous in Zhongzhou. If the strength of Dou Zun is placed in the Nagama Empire, it is enough to become a legendary existence. From a certain angle, he seems to have reached the level of the original. Xiao Zhan had expectations for him, but unfortunately, he did not see the moment when his son turned into a dragon and soared.

"I will save my father. This is my promise to my elder brother and second brother. If I can't save my father, I will have no face to see them..." Xiao Yan said softly, his voice was hoarse. When he was still young, he was constantly pressed on his shoulders, but fortunately, he was not crushed, but instead grew rapidly under this pressure, until he is where he is today. "Teacher will help you even if the price is this old life." Yao Lao patted Xiao Yan's shoulder lightly, and said with a smile: "If your father can know that the little boy back then is now a strong man who can stand on his own, You should be happy too."

Xiao Yan smiled, blinked his eyes, endured the slightly sour feeling, and immediately asked: "Master, did you ever know where father was imprisoned in Zhongzhou by the Soul Palace?" "Not anywhere in Zhongzhou." Yao Lao shook his head and said. Hearing this, Xiao Yan was startled, and frowned, "What do you mean?" "I'm not too sure why the Soul Palace values ​​your father so much. The only thing I can guess is that it's because of the ancient jade on your body." Yao Lao also frowned slightly, and said: "The ancient clan has the ancient realm, And the strength and background of the Soul Hall are not inferior to the ancients."

"Teacher, does the Soul Palace have its own space?" Xiao Yan asked slightly startled. "Soul Realm..." Yao Lao nodded lightly, and said in a low voice, "However, there are only a handful of strong people who know the existence of the Soul Realm in Zhongzhou, and as for the entrance of the Soul Palace, even I don't know about it... " "My father...was imprisoned in the Soul Realm?" Xiao Yan said in a deep voice. "Ok." The fist in Xiao Yan's sleeve clenched slightly, and his fingers gently rubbed the ring. An ancient jade with an ancient atmosphere quietly appeared in his hand. The Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade is the goal of the Soul Palace, but it has been so many years since he got this thing. However, he did not feel the effect of this thing at all. Except for a little change in the ancient jade when he practiced at the bottom of the tower at Canaan Academy, it has never appeared for the second time in so many years.

"The power of the Soul Palace is huge and mysterious. After many investigations, it is said that a long time ago, the Soul Palace had another name..." Yao Lao narrowed his eyes slightly, and said softly, "Soul Race." "Soul Race?" Xiao Yan shook the palm holding Gu Yu slightly, and said, "Could it be the same as the ancient clan, inherited from ancient times?" "I don't know much about this...but maybe your little girlfriend will know something." Yao Lao shook his head and sighed. The more he dealt with the Soul Palace, the more he became aware of this entangled power on the mainland. of mystery and spookiness.

"Xun'er..." Xiao Yan nodded slightly. "That's all I can tell you, but no matter what happens to you and the Soul Palace in the end, the teacher will always stand behind you, even if... you risk your life." Yao Lao smiled slightly, patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder, held the wooden box, put his hands behind his back, and walked slowly down the mountain. Looking at the backs of Yao Lao and Venerable Feng, Xiao Yan also smiled, took a deep breath, looked up at the sky, and a trace of determination gradually appeared on his face. "Father, no matter how strong the Soul Palace is, I will rescue you, wait for me..."

After handing over the soul baby fruit to Yao Lao, Yao Lao chose to retreat as quickly as possible. Only when the original soul energy was replenished, then he could truly recover his peak strength, and in the future, he might still be able to challenge that Dou The potential and hope of the holy step forward. After Yaolao retreated, Xiao Yan and the others took a good rest for a few days. During these few days, Mu Qingluan and the others hurried back to the Xingyu Pavilion. He breathed a sigh of relief. After resting for a few days, after recovering to his peak state, Xiao Yan started to have a headache again. This time, what caused him a headache was the poison in Qinglin's body.

Emperor Python Heart Erosion Poison is a very famous poison in Zhongzhou. According to legend, there is no cure for this poison, but Xiao Yan also said that there is no uncurable poison in time, but he has never found it. For this reason, he buried Among the many pharmacopoeia left by Mr. Shouyao, he even borrowed and studied the Seven-Color Poison Sutra that the Immortal Doctor got back then. But even though he was a headache from the poison, fortunately, Huang Tian paid off. After searching for four or five days in the dark, Xiao Yan finally found out some ways to detoxify. In the back mountain of Xingyun Pavilion, there is a secluded and cool cave. In the center of the cave, there is a small pool made of rocks. At this moment, in the pool, the clear water is bubbling, and it looks like boiling water. . Beside the pool, Xiao Yan took out some medicinal powders and liquid-like things from the ring from time to time, and sprinkled them into the pool. After the clear water in the pool gradually turned light red, he stopped his hand, and the palm of his hand Turning it over, a small jade bottle flashed out. Inside the jade bottle, there was a stream of pure energy that was as thick as it was real. "Woo..." Seeing this little jade bottle, the little snow-white beast in Xiao Yan's arms whimpered immediately. The little beast's expression was extremely sluggish now, even its hair was a little duller, which made people feel distressed. "Don't worry, I will compensate you in the future." Xiao Yan smiled wryly, took out a few pills from the ring and stuffed them into the mouth of the pill beast, and the latter cheered up a little. Seeing this, Xiao Yan heaved a sigh of relief. He really worked so hard to let this guy contribute a little blood. "Zizz!" The jade bottle was tilted, and the silver liquid dripped down slowly, and finally fell into the pool, and there was an ear-piercing sound, and with the dripping of the liquid, an extremely fine spirit filled the pool. Pure energy fluctuations. "Qinglin, take off your clothes and enter the pool. If you can absorb all these energies, you should be able to completely stabilize your level at the Dou Zun level." Xiao Yan put away the jade bottle, and turned his head to Qinglin who was beside him. laughed. Hearing this, Qing Lin was startled for a moment, and then a blush appeared on her cheeks. "I understand..." Seeing her like this, Xiao Yan also smiled, turned around, and said, "Because I need to add various medicinal powders at any time, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave." "Ok……" Qing Lin blushed, hummed as low as a mosquito, then quickly took off her clothes, and with a plop, she jumped into the small pond lightly. Hearing the sound of entering the water, Xiao Yan turned his head and looked into the pool, only to see that Qing Lin only showed his head out of the water, his long hair was wet by the water vapor and stained his cheeks. Very touching and charming. "Enter the state of cultivation and absorb the power of the medicine in the pool." Xiao Yan said softly. Hearing Xiao Yan's soft voice, the shyness and tension in Qing Lin's heart gradually weakened, she stabilized her mind, closed her eyes slightly, and slowly entered the cultivation state. Seeing that Qinglin had successfully entered the cultivation state, Xiao Yan also smiled slightly. Just as he was about to stand up, his eyes suddenly stopped on Qinglin's smooth back protruding from the water. In the rising mist of the pool, behind it, a mysterious The tattoo, the tattoo, if you look closely, it looks like a giant python entrenched, but this giant python seems to have nine snake heads... While Xiao Yan was staring at the mysterious tattoo in astonishment, one of the hydra's closed eyes suddenly opened at this moment. Xiao Yan's heart surged out, causing his eyes to turn blood red in an instant. "call……" The moment the violence appeared, Xiao Yan was on guard, his body retreated quickly, and his eyes quickly moved away from the tattoo. Looking away, Xiao Yan's eyes gradually returned to normal, he swallowed lightly, his heart was full of horror, how could there be such a fierce thing on Qinglin's body?
