"Do you two have the ability to do so?" In the next moment, Grandmaster Zong even began lecturing.
F * ck, isn't that just activating a level 6 Ice Talisman Paper? What's there to be arrogant about? The two of them were silently cursing in their hearts.
Even if they were dissatisfied, they did not dare to express it out loud. If that Grandmaster Zong gave them a cold stream of energy when he was unhappy, they would be in trouble.
"Grandmaster Zong, we investigated thoroughly, but we couldn't find anything wrong." One of them said with a bitter face.
"Grandmaster Zong, please give us some more time. Perhaps we might be able to discover something."
"Alright, I'll give you two another hour!" Master Zong said coldly.
Hearing Grandmaster Zong's words, the two of them hurriedly went back to their work. Unknowingly, an hour had already passed and after this, the two of them still hadn't discovered anything.
Grandmaster Zong couldn't hold it in any longer, and coldly said, "The two of you aren't just faking it, are you?"
"Grandmaster Zong, how could we dare? We don't want to lose our heads!" One of them said with a sullen face.
The other person said, "Grandmaster Zong, perhaps there isn't any spatial rift here!"
"Without a crack in space, how could the Flaming Winged Bird disappear here? How could there be something that the black wolf was afraid of?" Elder He said.
"Maybe they just happened to be here. If you run into the next flamingos, you probably won't be here." the man guessed.
"Alright then. Seeing that you guys can't find us, we'll head back first. We'll take a look when we encounter the next Flaming Winged Bird!" Master Zong said with a frown.
Finished speaking, he led everyone away.
After that, they found out that the Flaming Winged Bird had appeared again on the second day, and it was still in the south of the Imperial City this time.
After hearing this news, Grandmaster Zong would naturally lead people to chase after them. This time around, he directly brought those two people with him.
After some tracking, they arrived at a dense forest. After arriving at this place, the black wolf was once again terrified.
Grandmaster Zong and the others frowned, because this forest was not the same place as the last time.
"From the looks of it, the flamingos must have intentionally lured us to such a place. There aren't any spatial cracks in such a place." Elder He could not help but say this.
"Looks like it's true." Master Zong nodded and then led the group into the forest.
The result was the same as last time, they didn't find anything that frightened the Winged Bird. They then ordered the two to search for a spatial crack, but just as they had guessed, the two of them didn't find one.
"It seems like the flamingos didn't come from these places. They only lured us to a place like this." In the end, they came to this conclusion.
"If only Black Wolf wasn't afraid of that thing!" Elder He couldn't help but sigh.
"Wang Tongtian, is there any way for Black Wolf to not be afraid?" In the next moment, Grandmaster Zong said to Wang Tongtian.
"This... I don't know. " Wang Tongtian shook his head.
However, he actually knew that there was a pill called the Savage Qi Pill. Once the beast consumed this pill, they would not be afraid of the beast that was stronger than them for a period of time.
However, this type of pill was extremely harmful to beasts, so even if the beast king knew about it, he did not plan to reveal it. This was because if he were to find such a pill, it would cause great harm to the black wolf.
He did not want the black wolf to die from consuming such a pill.
Grandmaster Zong was helpless. He could only bring the crowd with him and return to the Royal Palace. The Emperor directly ordered them to gather at the central great hall.
The moment he saw their Emperor, he directly asked, "Grandmaster Zong, how's the situation? Can you find out where those Flaming Winged Birds appeared from?"
"Your Majesty, I'm very sorry, we've used up all of our energy, but we still haven't been able to track those Flamewing Birds. They can always find a way to shake us off." Grandmaster Zong said with a bitter face.
"Hmm, don't you have Black Wolves? Is it useless? " The emperor frowned as he looked at Grandmaster Zong and Wang Tongtian.
"Your Majesty, during the tracking process, the black wolf will encounter beasts that are much stronger than it. Under the suppression of its bloodline, the black wolf is simply unable to follow us, so we finally lost the Flaming Winged Bird's trail." Wang Tongtian replied.
"Don't tell me you have no way to make Black Wolf not be afraid?" The Emperor said coldly.
"I have no choice." Wang Tongtian shook his head.
The Emperor's expression was naturally extremely ugly when he heard Wang Tongtian's words.
"Immediately, gather all the experts in the palace!" the Emperor ordered.
If there were more people, who would have the ability and insight to do so? That was why the Emperor chose to do so.
The eunuchs beside him hurried out to busy themselves. Very soon, all the experts within the palace were gathered.
"The reason I summoned you all here was because the Black Wolf encountered an accident while tracking the Flaming Winged Bird. It had always encountered fierce beasts with great strength, and was afraid that it wouldn't be able to track the Flaming Winged Bird due to the suppression of its bloodline ? I have asked you guys to come here because I hope that you can find a way not to scare it off. " The Emperor went straight to the point.
"Your Majesty, I know that there is a type of medicinal pill that can let the black wolf not be afraid. This pill is called 'Vapour Phase Pill', and once the black wolf takes it, the black wolf will not be afraid for a certain period of time. Then, we can let it continue to track the Flaming Winged Bird!"
"Do you really have such a pill? Do you know where it is?" The emperor's face immediately revealed an expression of joy.
"This kind of pill needs to be refined on the spot. I heard that the person who can refine this pill is an alchemist from the Towering Wind Mountain outside the Windy City. His surname is Huo Minghao." The middle-aged man said.
"Then go and get him immediately!" the Emperor ordered.
"Your Majesty, that person has an arrogant personality. He swore that he would never leave the Towering Wind Mountain and would never refine pills for strangers. If I were to go like this, he would most likely not follow me here." The middle-aged man smiled bitterly.
"What kind of person is he? Could he actually be more arrogant than me?" This thought flashed across Wang Tongtian's mind.
"Tsk, tsk. If His Majesty ordered it, would he dare to disobey His Majesty's orders?" Elder He said coldly.
"I've heard that that person has kept his word and offended many people in his life for this reason, but he has never changed his temper because of anyone. Thus, I feel that it will be difficult even for His Majesty to pass down the decree." The middle-aged man said.
"That's crazy!" The emperor frowned. The next moment, he looked towards Grandmaster Zong and said, "Grandmaster Zong, you will be in charge of this matter. You have to make that person concoct the Baleful Qi Pill!"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. This lowly servant will definitely let that person refine the Baleful Qi Pill!" Grandmaster Zong immediately said.
With that, he looked at the middle-aged man and said, "Bring me to that person!"
"Yes sir!" The middle-aged man said respectfully.
After that, he brought Grandmaster Zong and the others out of the palace and headed straight for the Wind Cloud Mountain.
Within a day, they had arrived at the top of the Towering Wind Mountain. They found a guide and soon found out that the place that Huo Gao was staying was the tallest stone house on the Towering Wind Mountain.
Grandmaster Zong and the others immediately headed towards the direction of the summit of the Towering Wind Mountain.
Before long, they arrived at the peak of the mountain and saw a very ordinary looking stone house.
Coincidentally, there was an old man sitting outside the stone house. Seeing Grandmaster Zong and the others appear, this old man frowned and asked, "Who are you people? What are you here for?"
A person beside Grandmaster Zong said respectfully, "We are sent by His Majesty. We hope that Grandmaster Huo can help you refine a type of pill."
"I'm sorry, I'm not Master Huo." The old man said.
"Where is Master Huo? Let him out!" Grandmaster Zong was starting to get impatient.
Hearing this, the old man was obviously unhappy. He said coldly, "How do I know where Master Huo is?"
"Master Huo is not here?" Master Zong could not help but speak to the guide.
"He lives on this stone house." The guide said with a sad face.
Grandmaster Zong believed his words, and then looked at the old man in front of him and asked, "Why are you lying?"
However, the old man still denied it, "I didn't lie. I really don't know where Master Huo is!"
"Seems like you are asking for a beating!" Grandmaster Zong's eyes focused as he looked at Old He beside him and said, "Old He, seize him!"
Hearing his order, Old He immediately took out his Grade 6 Ice Talisman Paper.
The elder in front of him originally didn't want to bother with Elder He, but when his gaze shifted to the Ice Talisman in Old He's hands, he couldn't help but shout out, "What kind of Talisman Paper is this? Why is it different from the Ice Talisman Paper of the fifth level?"
This old man originally thought that Old He and the others should have the ability to activate the level five Ice Talisman Paper, but he was naturally surprised when he saw Old He take out a different talisman paper.
"To tell you the truth, this is a Level 6 Ice Talisman Paper. You cannot deal with us. If you don't want to die, then obediently listen to us!" Elder He said coldly.
"Level 6 Ice Talisman Paper? Is there such a cold paper talisman in this world? " The eyes of the elder before him widened in shock.
"That's right, this world does have this kind of Ice Talisman Paper. If you don't believe me, you can try the power of this Ice Talisman Paper!" Old He said calmly.
To his surprise, the other party actually said directly, "Alright, show me what you've got!"
"Since you want to die, I'll grant your wish!" Old He sneered.
After he finished speaking, he immediately activated the Ice Magic Talisman in his hand. In the next moment, a strong wave of icy Qi immediately shot towards the old man.
"So powerful! It's much stronger than the icy energy unleashed by the rank 5 Ice Talisman Paper!" Feeling the might of the cold talisman paper from Old He, the old man could not help but sigh.
It was also at this moment that Elder He removed the stimulated cold energy.
Then, he looked at the other party and said, "Am I right?"
"It is indeed an even more powerful Ice Qi. I guess it really is the Level 6 Ice Talisman Paper that you mentioned!" The old man couldn't help but sigh.
The next moment, he continued, "I am not your opponent, I admit defeat ? However, what kind of pill do you want Master Huo to refine? "
Honestly speaking, he was a little surprised that Old He and the rest had come looking for him. After all, there was an alchemist stronger than Master Huo in this world. There was no need for Old He and the rest to look for a weird person like Master Huo.
"Are you really not Master Huo?" Elder He couldn't help but say.
"I really am not." The old man smiled bitterly.
"Where is Master Huo?" Master Zong said with a frown.
"He left the mountain four hours ago. I'm afraid he won't be back for quite some time." The old man replied.
"Didn't they say that he won't leave Windy Mountain?" Elder He asked doubtfully.
"He didn't leave. He was in the vicinity." The old man replied.
"So that's how it is." Grandmaster Zong nodded, then asked, "When does he return?"
"I don't know the specifics. In short, he will definitely come before the day after tomorrow." The old man replied.
"Before the day after tomorrow? We don't have time to wait for him! " Master Zong said coldly.
"Then there's nothing I can do. After all, I don't know where he is either." The old man said helplessly.
He then asked the question again, "What pill do you want Master Huo to concoct?"
"We want him to concoct the Savage Qi Pill!" Grandmaster Zong said.
"Baleful Qi Pill, so it's actually this kind of pill. No wonder." Upon hearing Grandmaster Zong's words, the old man immediately understood.
"Let's just wait here for a while. If there's no one else, we can go out and search." Grandmaster Zong said.
Immediately, the group of people waited on the spot. Two hours later, they still did not see anyone approaching this place.
Grandmaster Zong couldn't wait any longer, so he directly said, "Follow us out, and then shout loudly to inform Grandmaster Huo."
Facing an expert like Grandmaster Zong, the old man could only bitterly smile, "Alright."
After which, he led Grandmaster Zong and the others down the mountain.
"Master Huo, Master Huo!" He shouted loudly while walking, hoping to attract Master Huo's attention.
Not too far down the road, Grandmaster Zong saw an old man walking towards them.
The old man was much older than the old man who had led the way.
Seeing them, the old man stopped and looked towards the old man leading the way. He asked, "Ah Song, who are they?"
The old man, Ah Song, smiled bitterly, "Master Huo, they are sent by His Majesty. They are the ones who asked you to concoct the Vampiric Pill."
Hearing his words, everyone understood that the old man in front of them was Huo Gao.
"Ah Song, I have sworn that I will no longer concoct pills for strangers!" Huo Gao said in a cold voice.
"Huo Gao, we were sent here by His Majesty, but you actually rejected us. You've really eaten the guts of a leopard!" Elder He couldn't help but say angrily.
"No matter who you are, I will treat you equally. I will never refine pills for you!" Huo Gaoming said in a tit for tat manner.
At this time, the old man named Ah Song could not help but say, "Master Huo, they can activate the rank 6 Ice Talisman paper. They are very powerful!"
"Level 6 Ice Talisman Paper?" Huo Gao couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard Ah Song's words.
"That's right, it's a Level 6 Ice Talisman Paper. The cold Qi it emits is much stronger than a Level 5 Ice Talisman Paper." Ah Song replied.
"There's actually a rank 6 Ice Talisman Paper!" Huo Gao sighed.
He believed in Ah Song. He knew that Ah Song would not lie to him, so he believed him without Master Zong and the others activating the rank 6 Ice Talisman.
"Huo Gao, if you don't want to die, then just concoct the 'Vampiric Pill' honestly. Otherwise, we won't be polite to you anymore!" Elder He said coldly.
While they were talking, they had already surrounded Huo Zhi.
Huo Gao's expression became unsettled. After a few moments of hesitation, words came out of his mouth, "Fine, I promise you, I'll help you refine the Savage Energy Pill!"
"A wise man submits to the circumstances!" Elder He couldn't help but laugh.
"However, I don't have any ready-made Qi Pills. These Qi Pills need to be refined on the spot and will only be used for half a day before they lose their effect!" Huo Gao said.
"Yes." Upon hearing his words, Grandmaster Zong and the others all nodded their heads.
"Alright, I'm going to start forging!" With that, Huo Gao took out his tools and started to concoct the Vampiric Vapour Pill with all his might.
His spatial ring clearly contained the materials needed to refine the Baleful Qi Pill, which was why he did not need to leave this place.
Huo Gao didn't spend too much time to concoct the Baleful Qi Pill.
"This is the Vicious Qi Pill!" After taking out the Savage Energy Pill from the small cauldron, Huo Grandmaster handed it over to Grandmaster Zong.
Grandmaster Zong immediately received it and examined it carefully. He discovered that the Qi Bending Pill was completely black in color and there was a faint killing intent within the pill.
"Truly, this pill is just like its name!" Grandmaster Zong and Elder He couldn't help but sigh emotionally.
After he had concocted the Savage Qi Pill, Huo Gao didn't move an inch. He couldn't help but ask, "Huo Gao, why don't you refine a few more?"
"Due to the extreme hostility of this pill, it has affected my ability to refine it. I need to rest for a while." Huo Gao said.
Seeing that Huo Gao wasn't lying, Grandmaster Zong immediately nodded, "Alright!"
"Then Huo Gao, come with us to the Imperial City. We'll wait for you to recover before you concoct the Baleful Qi Pill." Old He added.
However, Huo Gao just shook his head and said, "Sorry, I won't leave this Windy Mountain!"
Grandmaster Zong couldn't help but say, "Huo Gaoming, you really don't know what's good for you. You must know that this is an order from His Majesty!"
Without waiting for Grandmaster Zong to speak, Old He took out the rank 6 Ice Talisman Paper.
Seeing that Elder He was about to attack, Huo Gao could only submit.
After which, Grandmaster Zong and the rest of the Celestial Phenomenon Ascendants led Huo Gao out of the area, heading in the direction of the Royal Capital.
Returning to the Imperial City Sect was to look for Wang Tongtian, and then directly make Wang Tongtian's black wolf consume a baleful qi pellet.
He did so to test out the effects of the Baleful Qi Pill.
After Black Wolf consumed the Baleful Qi Pill, he became extremely manic.
"Wang Tongtian, let's see if we can control it!" Grandmaster Zong shouted directly.
Wang Tongtian immediately began to communicate with the black wolf, allowing everyone to relax. Even though the black wolf had taken the Vapour Phase pill, it still obeyed Wang Tongtian's command.
"From the looks of it, I should be able to use it to track that thing!" A smile appeared on Grandmaster Zong's face.
His smile had yet to fade when someone came to inform him that the Flamewing Bird had appeared again, still in the south.
Grandmaster Zong quickly led his men to chase down the Flaming Winged Bird. After tracking it for a while, everyone discovered that it had hidden itself in another part of the forest.
But this time, the black wolf was clearly no longer afraid.
"Black Wolf, chase it!" Wang Tongtian ordered.
Before he finished his sentence, the black wolf had already rushed into the forest.
It worked! Grandmaster Zong and the others were naturally overjoyed as they hurriedly followed behind the black wolf.
After circling the forest once, the black wolf stopped under a big tree and roared at the top of the tree.
"Looks like that thing is on this tree!" Master Zong could not help but be overjoyed.
Soon after, his gaze fell on the direction the black wolf was looking.
Not just him, but the others as well.
After taking a few glances, Grandmaster Zong's line of sight landed on a strange bird on the tree. This strange bird looked extremely similar to the Flaming Winged Bird they were chasing. The only difference was that this strange bird did not have any flames on its body.
"This is a Flaming Winged Bird that's the same as Prime Minister He's Flaming Winged Bird!" In the next moment, Master Zong, who seemed to have thought of something, couldn't help but cry out.
"It really is that type of Flaming Winged Bird!" Old He also shouted.
"This Flaming Winged Bird isn't easy to deal with, hurry up and surround it." Grandmaster Zong hurriedly replied.
Just when the others were about to surround it, the flamingwing bird roared and flew forward madly.
"You want to escape?!" With a furious roar, Grandmaster Zong led the chase.
Unfortunately, the Flamewing Bird's speed was extraordinarily fast, and even though he'd used all of his strength, he still hadn't been able to stop the other side.
He quickly lost sight of the Flaming Winged Bird, and it was only at this moment that the others caught up.
No one knew where the Flaming Winged Bird had gone to, and in the end, they could only let Black Wolf take action.
What they did not expect was that even after a long search, the black wolf had still disappeared.
After searching for a while, they still could not find the Flamewing Bird. In the end, they could only give up.
Although they weren't able to catch up to the Flamewing Bird, they had one harvest. They knew that the thing that the black wolf was afraid of was the even more powerful Flamewing Bird.
After returning to the palace, Grandmaster Zong immediately went to look for the emperor.
"Grandmaster Zong, what did you find?" When he saw Grandmaster Zong, the Emperor couldn't help but ask.
"Your Majesty, although we were unable to find the source, we have already discovered what caused the Black Wolf to feel fear." Grandmaster Zong said.
"Oh, what is it?" The Emperor couldn't help but ask.
"It's a Flamewing Bird. It's exactly the same as the Flamewing Bird Prime Minister He released earlier." Master Zong said.
"It's that Flamewing Bird. No wonder the black wolf was scared." The Emperor couldn't help but sigh.
After a brief pause, he continued, "It's fine to know what kind of berserk beast it is, you just need to let the black wolf follow you."
"Your Majesty is right." Master Zong agreed.
The next day, another Flamingos appeared. This time, the direction the Flamingos were fleeing towards was not the south, but the east.
Grandmaster Zong hurriedly left the palace, leading his group in a chase towards the east.
After spending some time, they finally caught up to the Flaming Winged Bird in front.
The Flaming Winged Bird also brought them to a forest.
Upon arriving at this place, Black Wolf immediately felt fear, and the faces of Grandmaster Zong and the others couldn't help but reveal a happy expression, because this meant that there should be a powerful Flamewing Bird in front of them.
Wang Tongtian quickly let the black wolf consume the Energy Blizzard Pill. The moment it consumed the Energy Blizzard Pill, the black wolf immediately became manic.
Even so, under Wang Tongtian's command, it still chased after the forest.
After circling the forest, the black wolf found the Flamingos hiding under a rock.
This Flamewing Bird was also a Flameless Winged Bird with two wings.
"Surround it and don't let it escape!" Grandmaster Zong quickly shouted.
He didn't want to let the Flamewing Bird escape again.
There was no need for him to shout as everyone was already surrounding the Flaming Winged Bird.
