Ning Fan turned around and looked at the thin old man behind him with a fearful expression.

He is as short as five feet tall, as skinny as a stick, with a face as cold as a zombie. He is dressed in black feathers, with black mist covering his body. His hair is as messy as a hedgehog, his eyes are blood red, but his skin is white and oozing... It is expected that after many years,

, caused by living in a lightless place.

As soon as this person appeared, Ning Fan felt an extremely strong sense of crisis...

Shattered!

The price of opening his mouth was the Ming Luo Fruit, and the threat of life and death was the threat of life and death. This old man made his request without giving Ning Fan any room to refuse.

Ning Fan's eyes flashed coldly, he didn't like this feeling of being threatened...even if the other party was Old Monster Suixu!

His thoughts were spinning... The old man in front of him didn't speak much, which showed that he had a withdrawn character. His eyes were fierce, and he should be the kind of character who would directly catch people when they meet them. Judging from his personality, this kind of person should disdain to interact with others.

He is just talking nonsense. Whatever he wants, he can just use his cultivation to suppress it!

But this person didn't take action to catch Ning Fan, he only threatened him... was it because of the girl's face, or... was there some other reason...

Faintly, Ning Fan felt that the old man's gaze seemed to be extremely wary of the earthly demonic fire that he used to make elixirs - the Black Demonic Flame. The fear was deeply hidden, but with Ning Fan's eyesight, he still found the clues.

Weird... old monster Suixu, would he be afraid of a single type of earth-vein demon fire?!

The black robed old man, surrounded by black mist, seems to have the effect of shielding his spiritual thoughts, making it impossible for people to spy on his cultivation. For the old monster Suixu, this method is superfluous and unnecessary... and this black mist aura gives

Ning Fan felt something very familiar, and immediately he remembered where he had seen this black mist.

The core of the Mingluo Fruit has the same aura! The ten thousand-year elixir in the girl's kit also has the same aura!

Ning Fan seemed to have a guess. He slashed with his sword and immediately broke through the black fog on the old man's body. Finally, he could clearly see the old man's cultivation.

"Sword Thought?!"

The old man was slightly startled, and his words were as precious as gold. After being surprised, he saw that Ning Fan had a look of understanding, and his face turned gloomy.

"You saw it!"

"Yes, I saw it... Tell me, if you have anything to do, please ask me for help. If you can pay me enough, maybe I will agree."

Ning Fan showed an inexplicable smile, but he no longer looked as deeply afraid of the old man as before.

This old man is indeed the old monster Suixu... but he is not here. Moreover, this old man has a natural fear of his own black magic flame...

Among the clues, Ning Fan discovered the aura leaked by the old man, and when his sword thought cut through the black mist, he discovered the old man's true identity.

The old man is not a person, but a tree! An old tree that has become a spirit, a Mingluo tree!

What came here was just a clone of the old man's roots, which had pierced all the way from the ninth floor of the Underworld Tomb. It had the aura of breaking the void, but its magical power was only that of the God Transformation stage.

All this seems to be the special suppression of the underworld... Monsters, high-level monsters, cannot travel through low-level soil layers.

The Mingluo tree is an extremely strange tree. It cannot see a trace of fire, otherwise it will wither immediately... The old man Mingluo tree has become a spirit. If he were the deity, he might be able to resist the demonic fire of the earth veins with his magic power... But he only came to transform into a spirit.

If the first-level clone faced Ning Fan's fifth-grade spiritual fire - the black demon flame, it would wither without even having to take action!

In a short period of time, Ning Fan discovered the old man's weaknesses through various signs and gave up his fear of the old man. If the old man really came in person and made a request, Ning Fan might not have a choice, but since the old man has many weaknesses

, if you are still threatened by him, it will make you laugh!

The old man's face was gloomy. His mind was always focused on the girl, worried that something might happen to her. Fortunately, Ning Fan didn't do anything to the girl, and the old man didn't bother to show up.

But after witnessing Ning Fan's alchemy breakthrough to level five, an idea arose in the old man's mind.

He wants to capture Ning Fan and keep him in the underworld as the girl's exclusive alchemist! If a fifth-level alchemist helps, perhaps, the 'virtual poison' in the girl's body...

With his Shattering Void cultivation, he was suppressed by the Underworld Grave and could not reach the fifth level. Therefore, he could only send tree root clones to capture people.

But when the clone came, he discovered that Ning Fan held the terrifying earth-vein demon fire in his hands... If it were the fifth-grade demon fire, he wouldn't be afraid of it... It's a pity that it's just a tree-root clone. Due to the special physique of the Mingluo tree,

, I only know that if it is illuminated by the fire, I am afraid that the clone will wither and die immediately.

Therefore, the old man gave up the idea of ​​directly capturing Ning Fan. Instead, he used the Ning Luo Fruit to induce him, secretly released his pressure, and threatened him with life and death... First, he forced Ning Fan to agree to his request, and then brought him to the ninth floor of the Ning Tomb.

Later... everything was under his control! At that time, there was no question whether he would give Ning Fan the reward he deserved. And it was impossible for Ning Fan to leave the underworld again!

The old man's threat actually hid endless dangers. If he were an ordinary person, he might have been overwhelmed by the power of Suixu, and his mind was in a panic, unable to think carefully, and he fell into the old man's trap.

But when Ning Fan saw Suixu, there were already Bone Emperor, Nirvana Emperor, Xiao Diao, Yun Bushu and others. It was not that he had never seen Suixu before, he also had the inheritance of the Immortal Emperor. How could he be shocked by the old man's name of Suixu?

live.

Ning Fan did not panic, but saw flaws in the old man's words, deeds, and aura.

At this moment, Ning Fan smiled and said nothing, looking at the old man. He wanted to hear what the old man requested from him. If the request was not difficult, he would be very willing to get a few Mingluo fruits.

However, if the old man wants to enter the ninth floor of the Underworld Tomb, then... don't even think about it!

And it is impossible for the old man to threaten himself with life and death again!

"Ah, grandpa... don't be angry, Brother Pancake is a good person..." the girl said timidly. Only when he looked at the girl did the old man show a kind look.

"Mingque, you are still young... When you grow up, you will know that people's hearts are sinister... If it weren't for you, I would not want to come into contact with the human race at all costs!"

The old man's eyes met Ning Fan's smiling gaze, with anger in his heart.

Being threatened by him, Ning Fan didn't even get angry and even smiled...Human beings are indeed extremely sophisticated and despicable...His emotions and emotions are not written on his face.

The old man didn't understand why Ning Fan laughed. Laughter is an expression, a calm and composed principle of life, and has nothing to do with mood, let alone sadness or joy.

"I'm Ming Luo, as you can see, I'm just a tree root clone. I can't do anything to you. I do have something to ask for... specifically, please come to the ninth floor of the Ming Tomb and have a good time with me."

Let’s discuss it.”

"I won't enter the ninth floor...or even the sixth floor!"

Ning Fan stopped smiling, took three steps back, and suddenly stamped his foot, causing a black demon flame to be stepped into the ground by Ning Fan.

Immediately, in the ground, a tree root was burned to ashes with a hiss, and the old man named Ming Luo immediately groaned, seeming to be slightly injured.

Sneak attack?! The old man actually took advantage of the moment he was talking to sneak attack Ning Fan with his roots!

"You lured me into the ninth level and attacked me with your roots... Who is this despicable and shameless person... I don't want the Mingluo Fruit anymore. I'll give up on helping you... Seeing that you are wise

For Grandpa Que’s sake, I won’t kill your clone. If you stop me again, I have a way to kill your clone and cause your whole body to be harmed once!”

Ning Fan's eyes turned cold, he put away the alchemy cauldron and extinguished the earth fire. If it weren't for the fact that this place was only under the control of the old man and there were countless demonic beasts watching, he would never have been so polite to the old man, let alone kill his clone.

...

"Hmph! I want to leave! I really can't do anything to you, but this grave demon obeys my orders. I may not be able to kill you, but I won't let you leave. How can you leave!"

The old man's eyes turned cold, and his mind seemed to be transmitting some order to the surroundings. Immediately, one by one, god-level monsters came towards Ning Fan step by step with fierce eyes... This is a threat! And this threat

, obviously more difficult to deal with than the old man’s clone!

In the stalemate, the girl on the side stamped her foot eagerly... For some reason, she didn't want to see this cake brother she had just met get into trouble with her grandpa.

"That's enough! Grandpa, if you hurt Brother Pancake, I will, I will never take 'medicine' again!"

The girl's eyes flashed fiercely with a trace of black light, and immediately, a pressure like the Lord of the Demon Clan made all the demon beasts hibernate on the ground and tremble.

Monsters, Ming Luo, who is afraid of the old demon Suixu, is even more afraid of girls!

Just after this black light flashed, the girl's face immediately showed a look of pain, which seemed to cause the black light to flash violently. It was extremely difficult for her.

And mysterious black lines began to appear on the girl's face as her expression became more and more painful... and a pair of black wings sprouted from her back, piercing her clothes!

Pain, excruciating pain, the girl screamed in pain and fainted almost the moment her wings sprouted...

The old man, on the other hand, showed a look of horror after witnessing the girl's sudden change.

"No, she used that demonic power rashly, and the 'virtual poison' started to attack again... She must be given medicine immediately!"

Void poison, in ancient times, was a very powerful poison. It was produced from the black feathers of the ancient Hades bird's tail. It was a fusion of the power of the void and the ultimate poison of the Ancient Hades bird. Adults, the tail feathers of Void poison, poisoned Zhenzhen.

Immortal City is a piece of cake.

A long time ago, the old man discovered that there was a virtual poison in Mingque's body... He tried his best to suppress the poison, but in the end he was shocked to find that the poison was far more powerful than he expected. With his Xu-shattering cultivation, he could not

Cannot be erased!

The old man prepared a certain kind of medicinal liquid with several thousand-year-old elixirs, which barely suppressed the virtual poison. As long as Mingque did not use his demonic power rashly, it would not cause toxicity. And every once in a while, taking some medicine would suppress the poison.

poison.

He didn't know how to alchemy, and the medicine he prepared couldn't cure the virtual poison. Gradually, Xudu seemed to have become resistant to the medicine, and it became difficult to suppress it. Once the virtual poison completely broke out, Mingque might die...

Therefore, after he learned that Ning Fan had broken through to the fifth level of alchemy, he thought...

But he never expected that in order to protect Ning Fan, Xiao Mingque would actually use the forbidden demonic power, causing the virtual poison to attack in advance!

The old man was extremely anxious. At this moment, he no longer had the time to scheming with Ning Fan... This time, I wonder if Mingque can survive this ordeal...

His eyes were filled with anger, as if he wanted to eat Ning Fan!

"If Mingque dies, I will burn my demon soul and be destroyed forever. I will rush out of the graveyard and cut you into pieces... Brat, get out of here! Get out of the graveyard!"

The old man picked up the unconscious girl and immediately flew back to the ninth floor of the underworld.

But Ning Fan did not leave. He frowned, but still called out to the old man. He really had little affection for the old man, but for the girl... he could not help but care about her.

"etc!"

"What else do you want!" The old man turned back angrily. After seeing a trace of worry in Ning Fan's eyes, his anger subsided slightly.
To be continued...
