Celestial being

Yuan Ming looked at Ha Gong in front of him and knew in his heart that he could no longer tolerate any further hesitation.

At this time, Hagon was still fighting hard and fighting his final battle. The more he delayed, the more pain Hagon suffered.

"Hagon, I will definitely go and see your daughter. You... go on your way with peace of mind." Yuan Ming raised his sword high, closed his eyes, and made a move to cut it down.

"stop."

At this moment, a shout interrupted Yuan Ming's movements.

Yuan Ming opened his eyes, looked around, and saw a figure rushing over from a distance.

"Elder Huhuo?" Yuan Ming asked in surprise.

"What are you doing?" Elder Huhuo yelled angrily.

"I..." Yuan Ming raised his sword in the air and didn't know how to explain it.

"I... asked him... to help me..." Hagun also opened his eyes at this time and said with difficulty.

After Yuan Ming calmed down, he asked: "Elder Huhuo, is he going to turn into a mandrill?"

When Elder Huhuo heard this, he was not surprised, let alone refuted, but nodded calmly.

"Why? This is obviously the backlash of the Hair Clothing Technique and the Blood Qi Technique, why do we still have to practice it?" Yuan Ming frowned and couldn't help but ask.

"What are you? Are you beast slaves? Slaves, do you understand?" Elder Huhuo asked, his voice indifferent.

The implication is that a mere slave has no right to question?

Yuan Ming was furious, not only for Ha Gong, but also for himself.

If he hadn't accidentally obtained the incense burner and had protection, he would have been unable to avoid the fate of becoming a mandrill.

At this time, Elder Huhuo's expression suddenly softened slightly and said: "The world of cultivation is so cruel, you should have understood it a long time ago. However, I can see that you are not a thing in the pool. Maybe you can really jump out before the backlash. This quagmire.”

"What does the elder mean by this?" Yuan Ming asked.

"The backlash of the Hair Clothing Technique and the Blood Qi Technique has a trigger mechanism, and not everyone will definitely become a mandrill. As long as you can become a registered disciple before the backlash is triggered, you will naturally no longer have to worry about suffering the backlash. Ha Gong and Just like you, I am a promising junior, but it is a pity that he may not be able to survive that moment." Elder Huhuo sighed heavily and said.

"Can Ha Gong be saved?" Yuan Ming's anger subsided a little, but he still had doubts in his heart, so he asked.

"It's difficult to save if it changes more than half, but as long as it doesn't change more than 70%, you can still give it a try." Elder Huhuo thought for a while and said.

"Seriously?" Yuan Ming was immediately overjoyed when he heard this. He threw away all his doubts and said eagerly.

"Whether he can be rescued or not, we have to take him back and try to find out." Elder Huhuo said noncommittally.

"Thank you, elder." Yuan Ming quickly clasped his fists without caring about anything else.

"Roar……"

But at this moment, Hagun, who was lying on the ground, suddenly roared and struggled to get up.

His eyes were blood red, and his hands suddenly grabbed at Elder Huhuo.

Elder Huhuo raised his palm expressionlessly and slapped him on the head.

When Yuan Ming saw this, he was about to stop him, but saw a piece of cyan talisman held between his fingertips and slapped it on Ha Gong's forehead.

His movements appear to be powerful and heavy, but in fact they use clever energy.

Ha Gong was hit on the forehead by the green talisman. His body froze for a moment, and then he fell straight backwards.

The blood in his eyes faded slightly, and the spread of white hair on his body also stopped.

"The situation is already very serious. Without further ado, I have to take him back immediately." Elder Huhuo said with a frown.

Yuan Ming opened his mouth, but in the end nothing came out.

Although he was still dissatisfied with what Elder Huhuo had done to him and Hagon, this might be Hagon's last bit of life, and he had no reason to stop it.

On the contrary, he felt a different kind of relief, at least he didn't have to send his friend on his way.

Elder Huhuo said no more, summoned his spiritual beast Qing Falcon, lifted Ha Gong's arm, lifted him onto Qing Falcon's back, and put him down.

As a whistling sound sounded, the green falcon flapped its wings and flew up into the night sky.

Ha Gong was lying on Qing Falcon's body, but his red eyes were staring straight at Yuan Ming, looking a little dull and a little unwilling.

Yuan Ming suddenly felt a trace of regret in his heart. He didn't know whether his decision was right or wrong, because he suddenly read a kind of pleading in Ha Gong's eyes.

It was the same look as when he begged for death before. He didn't want to go with Elder Huhuo.

Yuan Ming returned to the campfire of the temporary shack and looked at the crocodile meat that was roasting golden and oily, but he had lost all appetite.

At this time, an ethereal voice vaguely sounded in his mind:

"madness"

"What do you mean? Why do you call me stupid?" Yuan Ming was suddenly startled, looked around quickly, and asked.

However, the night breeze was blowing, the fields were quiet, and no one responded.

Yuan Ming waited for a while, feeling increasingly irritable. He stood up and kicked the dirt to put out the bonfire, then ran into the forest to find his next hunting target.

…

Time flies, and more than a month has passed.

Yuan Ming came to the boundary monument, leaned on a big stone, and waited quietly.

Accompanied by a whistling wind, Elder Huhuo descended from the sky on the blue falcon and landed on the ground.

"Elder Huhuo, I wonder how Ha Gong is doing now?" Yuan Ming hurriedly stood up and went to greet him, and asked.

"He was too deeply eroded by the furry technique. Even though I tried my best, I couldn't save him." Elder Huhuo said this, but the expression on his face didn't change much.

After Yuan Ming heard this, he stood quietly, silent.

"Why, are you alone?" Elder Huhuo looked around and asked.

"I just arrived and I didn't see Ulu show up." Yuan Ming let out a long breath, as if he had completely let go of a heavy burden in his heart.

"Hand in this month's payment." Elder Huhuo said calmly without asking any further questions.

Yuan Ming took off the blood storage bag hanging from his waist, handed it over, and took the small jade bottle containing the antidote from Elder Huhuo.

Yuan Ming opened the bottle cap, poured out the elixir inside, checked it briefly and then drank it.

Elder Huhuo did not leave directly as before, but stood quietly beside him, looking at the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.

Yuan Ming frowned, as if he was worried and didn't want to stay here for a long time, so he said goodbye and left.

"Wait." Elder Huhuo stopped him and looked away from the sky.

"Elder, what else do you want?" Yuan Ming turned around.

"The rewards from the last trial mission have been distributed. You don't want them anymore?" Elder Huhuo said.

A strange expression flashed across Yuan Ming's expression, and he immediately regained his composure, saying: "Something went wrong in the last trial. I thought there would be no reward."

"The trial was an accident, and it does not affect the rewards. You performed well in this trial, and you are given two hundred blood meals as an encouragement." Elder Huhuo said.

"Two hundred copies!" Yuan Ming looked surprised.

"What, you think it's too little?" Elder Huhuo glanced at Yuan Ming.

"Of course not, it's too much. I didn't do anything during the trial, so I don't dare to accept such a heavy reward." Yuan Ming shook his head and said.

"Isn't it the case that the silver cat and I killed the Mandrill King were exposed?" His heart was agitated.

If this is the case, it is a disaster rather than a blessing.

"Some of the named disciples specifically mentioned your contribution to the sect." Elder Huhuo glanced at Yuan Ming and said.

Hearing this, Yuan Ming secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

When he and Silver Cat killed the Mandrill King, there was no third person present. Elder Huhuo was probably talking about Chen Wan.

"In this case, I am ashamed to receive the sect's generous gift." Yuan Ming cupped his hands and said.

Elder Huhuo hummed, did not speak to Yuan Ming anymore, turned around and walked towards Qing Falcon next to him.

"Elder Huhuo, I encountered an accident during the mission and quit early. I wonder what happened to this trial?" Yuan Ming caught up and asked.

"This is not something you should know." Elder Huhuo scolded him with a frown, and jumped on Qing Falcon's back.

The blue falcon spread its wide wings, soared into the sky, and quickly disappeared into the distance.

Yuan Ming stood in silence for a while, then left this place and came to a secluded valley deep in Shiwan Mountain.

There is a cave on a stone wall at the bottom of the valley. It was originally the lair of a grizzly bear. After Yuan Ming killed the grizzly bear, he slightly repaired it and used it as his current residence.

Yuan Ming sat down in the cave and planned his next move.

The reward of two hundred shares of blood food shocked him. In addition to what he had accumulated before, the amount of animal blood he had handed over had exceeded nine hundred shares. He was not far from the goal of one thousand shares. If he worked hard for a while, he should be able to do it. Get it together.

Recently, the backlash of the furry technique has become more and more severe. He has been worried that his body will not be able to support the beast blood, but now it should be no problem.

Time was running out, Yuan Ming got up and was about to go out.

Just two steps later, a burning breath suddenly came out of his lower abdomen, as if a fire was burning, and his internal organs were burning.

Yuan Ming felt a chill in his heart and hurriedly sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes.

After a moment, he frowned, and through his not very powerful consciousness, he faintly felt the source of the burning breath, which seemed to come from the antidote pill he had just taken.

Yuan Ming's expression was uncertain. This had never happened with previous detoxification pills. This time, the pill was different. What was Elder Huhuo going to do?

Before he could think about it, the hot breath suddenly burst out and flowed to every part of his body.

His meridians began to buzz and tremble, and a fierce aura suddenly rose up. The white ape skin around his waist rolled up automatically, adsorbed on his body, and instantly transformed into the form of a white ape.

After reaching the fifth level of Qi Refining, the white ape transformed into a burlier than before, but his back was a little curved, and his hands and feet were slender, looking more like a white ape than before.

The white ape's fur was bulging and squirming everywhere, as if there were many little mice crawling inside.

Yuan Ming is no stranger to this situation. It has happened more and more frequently in recent days, and it is the hair-covering technique that has begun to bite back.

He hurriedly ran the Jiuyuan Jue to suppress the evil spirit, and at the same time took out the incense burner and held it in his arms.

Waves of heat entered his body from the incense burner, assisting the Nine Yuan Jue to suppress the backlash of the Hair Clothing Technique.

After a few breaths, Yuan Ming's face became extremely ugly.

The backlash of the furry technique this time was different from before. Waves of indescribable restlessness surged from my heart like raging waves, several times stronger than any previous backlash.
