Chapter 169 The Weak Wind Does Not Cross

"That kind-hearted demon cultivator said that he found the Nirvana Pill outside the city and accidentally discovered that the pill had a chance to purify one's aptitude, so he picked it up to sell."

"How can I pick up the elixir..."

Outside Lancang City, several people were led into the dense forest by Qin Baiqing.

From afar, you can hear the loud sound of water falling and rocks hitting the horizon. The river water pours into the narrow valley and gathers into a new river at the bottom, running through the entire dense forest.

As we got closer, the moisture in the air became more obvious. The sounds of birds around were drowned out by the sound of water. The spirit beasts shuttled through the air, and they were all heading towards the direction of drinking water. Upon closer inspection, they all seemed to be anxious, as if there was an irresistible temptation ahead.

"The monsters are sensitive to smells. They are all attracted by the Red Crow Blood, which is the Nirvana Pill." Zhong Tingyu retracted his gaze, his tone heavy.

The sound of water was getting closer. A few people stepped into the foot of the valley. In front of them was the source of the river. All the water flowing downstream came from here.

"This is it. Uncle said he got them all from here. Occasionally, beads would appear in the water."

Qin Baiqing looked at the ordinary river water, but still couldn't understand why the Nirvana Pill emerged from the water.

“Perhaps… I know the reason.” Zhong Tingyu’s tone became heavier. After being silent all the way, he finally said in a hoarse voice: “The Chiwu bloodline is unusual. In order to increase the chances of returning to one’s ancestral roots and the Chiwu’s innate talent, the sect has been continuously improving the Chiwu bloodline over the years.”

"The sect used a secret method to cultivate the Red Crow, which increased the probability of its reversion to its ancestral form. This also caused the Red Crow's blood to be insoluble in water. When it came into contact with water, it would gather into beads. Only then could the magic cultivators find the red beads in the water and sell them as Nirvana Pills."

“But so many people in the city have bought beads…” Qin Baiqing swallowed nervously and said in horror: “Chiwu must have shed a lot of blood.”

She said that the city of demon cultivators would be like this, and Yukie was right!

“I never thought that Chiwu’s blood, which is so pure that it cannot be dissolved in water, would be sold as a pill.”

Ever since he learned that the red beads contained Chiwu blood, Zhong Tingyu's mood has been low. In Qin Baiqing's eyes, she could only see that he was much calmer, but she did not realize his suppressed anger.

At this time, Zhong Tingyu analyzed calmly, and at the same time tried to sense the breath of Chiwu in the valley further upstream. "This is still within the scope of the city. It seems that our previous search in the city was useless. Chiwu is probably in the valley ahead."

The river originates from the valley, and the Chiwu blood probably flowed down from it.

"We must rescue Chiwu as soon as possible!" His eyes shot into the depths of the valley, and his aura was more dangerous than ever before. He almost exploded, suppressing his anger and urging Qin Baiqing: "It's your turn to go up. You must bring Chiwu back as soon as possible. The cub can't stand the torture. If you delay any longer, it may not be able to hold on."

"Can't you achieve nirvana when you can't hold on any longer?" Qin Baiqing suddenly lost his focus and asked curiously, touching his chin.

The moment she asked, she clearly felt the temperature around her drop suddenly. Zhong Tingyu's tone exuded a hint of coldness, and he answered Qin Baiqing with his last patience, "How can you achieve Nirvana if you lose too much blood?"

The coldness made Qin Baiqing shiver, and she decisively shut up and stopped asking questions.

If you continue to make sarcastic remarks, Zhong Tingyu will get angry.

"What's the big deal? I'll just go."

"Why not just tell me that you want me to do the job? Sigh... I am a kind-hearted person, destined to help you solve your problems."

She muttered to herself, and after taking a look at the location of the valley, she pretended to go up. Before leaving, she suddenly thought of something, turned back and earnestly told Zhong Tingyu: "Then I'm going. The responsibility of protecting Fengbudu is handed over to you. Don't let him die."

"I've been working so hard. You'll never find a better helper than me."

In her eyes, Feng Budu was so weak that he coughed up blood when facing the wind, and his cultivation level could drop at any time. After instructing Zhong Tingyu, she was still worried, so she leaned closer to Feng Budu and stood on tiptoe, whispering to him, "If you encounter danger, just run away, don't worry about them."

Only then did he leave with no peace of mind. …

Qin Baiqing went towards the valley, and the others stayed where they were. Feng Budu retracted his smiling gaze and gestured to Zhong Tingyu with interest, "Please protect me. Thank you for your hard work, Young Sect Master."

The boasting in his words was hardly concealed.

"What's there to be proud of when being looked down upon by a kid?" Zhong Tingyu said with disdain.

He recalled how he was slapped out of the door, and felt deeply that Qin Baiqing must have been scammed. He sneered and made up his mind secretly.

This guy only knows how to pretend to be weak and add fuel to the fire. He will go back and tell Qin Baiqing Feng Budu's true cultivation level and expose him!

The three of them watched from afar. Zhong Tingyu rolled his eyes and moved away from Feng Budu. He was about to check on Qin Baiqing's situation, but before his sight could focus, he was suddenly attracted by a wailing sound.

"Ow—!"

"Who has no sense of public morality and set up the barrier in the valley?"

In mid-air, Qin Baiqing covered her forehead with both hands, squatted down in pain, and complained with a grin: "Who did it? Doesn't the valley belong to your family? Don't you know that you are not allowed to set up formations in public areas!"

She was caught off guard and a bump appeared on her forehead.

"Wuwu..." Qin Baiqing called for a long time but no one responded. She stood up aggrieved and stood in front of the formation with tears in her eyes. She muttered in a muffled voice, as if accusing or complaining, "Why do you block the way of a cute little girl? You are such a bad formation and have no vision."

She didn't look back, not knowing that the deafening noise she had just made when she crashed into the barrier instantly attracted many people to come and watch.

There were both demonic cultivators and righteous ones, but the large amount of unfamiliar aura still made Zhong Tingyu uneasy. After looking around worriedly, he became alert.

"There are too many people," he summoned his natal monster, "Are we exposed?"

"Why panic?"

Feng Budu, still calmly with his hands in his pockets, said calmly: "It's just a wild formation, it can't stop her."

As for the increasing number of gazes gathering around, Feng Budu ignored them all. He casually looked at Qin Baiqing's figure suspended in the air.

At this time, Qin Baiqing was contacting Yutai.

There is a scripture library on the jade platform. She waved her hand and conveyed the aura of the formation to the jade platform. In a flash, the jade platform found the corresponding formation and had all the methods to crack it.

Even though Sanqing Palace has been discontinued for a thousand years, its collections are still timeless.

The weaknesses of the formation were laid out clearly in front of Qin Baiqing. When she looked at the formation now, it was as if the clouds were cleared away to reveal the moon. All traces of the formation were visible at a glance, and the weak points were revealed in front of her by the jade platform, which taught her step by step how to smash the formation with one blow.

She gathered her strength, attacked, and followed the guidance of the jade platform to land steadily and accurately on one of the points. The valley was silent for a moment, and then there was noise again. The invisible shock of the formation's collapse made everyone take a step back at the same time.

I was shocked and scared.

"She actually... broke the barrier with just her physical strength!"

Exclamations came one after another. In the eyes of everyone, she just threw a punch casually and actually broke the barrier directly!
