Chapter 529 Firefly
Ye Kang's mind raced, and he asked in surprise, "What is this?"
"This is the recipe for the Storm Brew, and only I in the whole world know it. If I die, I don't want this recipe to disappear with me."
Why give it to me?
"Since you were able to help me get the wine back, it proves that you are someone I can entrust with my business. Besides, I don't know anyone else."
Ye Kang pondered for a moment, then took the jade slip and asked, "May I ask your name?"
"A rogue cultivator, Sun Wukao."
"I will remember this name, and you don't need to worry, you won't die that easily."
Ye Kang nodded, said no more, and turned to leave.
Yao Jingting quickly followed, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
"How can you not be excited at all! That's the recipe for Storm Brew, it's very valuable!"
"I don't brew wine, so what's there to get excited about?"
"You can sell them! Even the Linglong Chamber of Commerce will give you unimaginable rewards!"
"talk later."
Ye Kang had no intention of selling it. He had just been entrusted with this task, and he couldn't bear to sell it like this.
It doesn't affect anything anyway, so just leave it there.
Yao Jingting didn't understand his thoughts, but she didn't say anything more. The two returned the way they came and quickly flew back to Blood Shark Palace.
On the way, Yao Jingting couldn't help but ask, "Are you an undercover agent for Tianya Haige? Otherwise, why are you so calm?"
Ye Kang shook his head: "No, I should be asking you that. Who exactly is it that can make the genius of Yellow Leaf Island obediently listen to him?"
"Forget it, in any case, we can't tell anyone what happened these past two days. Let's figure out our story."
Ye Kang remained noncommittal.
Yao Jingting clearly wanted to keep the Holy Immortal Sect Leader's betrayal a secret, though she didn't know why, but at least it aligned with her own goals.
The two understood each other implicitly and quickly came up with an explanation.
That night, the two flew back to Lingxi Island and each returned to their own villa.
When Zhang Zuisheng saw Ye Kang return, he frowned slightly.
"So fast? The girl from Yellow Leaf Island didn't ask you for any help?"
Ye Kang shook his head slightly: "No, I just waited for her a little longer, otherwise I would have come back sooner. Uncle-Master, here is the Storm Brew you requested."
After saying that, Ye Kang took out the three jars of wine.
The strong aroma of the wine immediately made Zhang Zuisheng's eyes widen. He smiled, picked up the jar, and took a deep sniff.
"Great! That's the taste! Well done, Xiao Ye, I'll give you credit for that."
He originally wanted Ye Kang to go away and lay low for a few days before coming back, but since the other party returned safely and even brought back wine, there was no need to force him to.
He said, "Perfect timing. Tomorrow is the birthday of Blood Shark Ancestor. With you here, I feel much more at ease."
"Elder, I have another request."
"Go ahead."
"This disciple wishes to break through to the next level and humbly requests the elder's protection."
"What! You're about to break through again!?"
Zhang Zuisheng was stunned.
How come this kid's breakthroughs are as easy as drinking water? We're both cultivating, so why is there such a huge difference between us!
He quickly said, "Xiao Ye, haste makes waste. You need to be more cautious and not damage your foundation..."
"Elder, rest assured, I have indeed honed my foundation and am ready to break through at any time. However, I am afraid that making too much noise will attract attention, so I need your help."
Ye Kang looked sincere and spoke with great certainty.
Breakthrough was something he had decided to do on the way.
Their current strength seems sufficient, but they are still somewhat powerless against a powerhouse like Wu Shengnan.
He hadn't originally planned to be in such a hurry, but this trip to Extreme Wind Island made him feel that it was too risky.
The great battle between Tianya Haige and Xuesha Palace is about to break out. It would be best to raise your strength to a level sufficient to protect yourself.
Seeing the determination in Ye Kang's eyes, Zhang Zuisheng could only smile wryly and nod in agreement.
After all, this kid got himself some wine to drink.
Soon, the two stepped out of Lingxi Island again and continued on their way out of the Blood Shark Palace area.
Ahead lay a deserted island, utterly desolate. It was nighttime, and the surroundings were silent and windless, with no sign of any living beings.
Zhang Zuisheng said, "Let's do it here. With me here, as long as you don't cause any major disturbances, there shouldn't be any problems."
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Uncle-Master."
Ye Kang bowed respectfully, and at the same time, with a thought, he released the Entangling Moon Silk and set up several formations.
With everything in perfect order, he then went to the center of the island to sit quietly.
"System, accelerate the refining process in the Demon Furnace."
【Ding】
[The host has consumed 50000 Enlightenment Points, successfully accelerating the refining process in the Demon Furnace]
[Congratulations, host, on successfully refining four man-eating fire-breathing roc.]
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained 8000 Demon Blood Crystals, 4 Demon Blood Cores, and 8 large barrels of Demon Essence Blood from the Divine Sea Realm]
[The host has obtained 4 top-grade Fire Element Feathers, 15 portions of fresh bird wings, and 4 portions of sharp beaks.]
[Congratulations, host, you have gained some experience in fire control, increased affinity with spiritual fire, and increased fire resistance.]
[Congratulations, host, after two thousand years of torture, you have successfully subdued four Fire Elemental Roc Spirits. You may choose to convert them all or convert them individually.]
Without hesitation, Ye Kang chose the most powerful one and transformed it into a Soul Spirit.
Soon, a tall, long-haired spirit slowly appeared and knelt before him.
"Firefire greets my lord."
"Your name is Huo Ying? Was the young Huo Yuan Peng I killed your offspring?"
"Reporting to Master, Huo Ying is not yet married, and her heart belongs only to you."
Huo Ying let out a sweet, coquettish voice, and Ye Kang breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, this way there is no psychological pressure.
She said calmly, "Although you have only just become a Soul Spirit, time waits for no one. Would you be willing to become my fifth Pillar Spirit?"
"Huoying is willing to do anything for her master."
"Alright, get ready."
At this moment, Qingmian in the deduction space let out an envious sigh.
"This is great, to have my own pillar right after arriving..."
The next second, Ye Kang had a thought and fully activated the Holy Extreme Heaven-Reaching Technique. His divine sea opened up, and all the demon pillars rose up, frantically stimulating his divine soul.
Immediately afterwards, all his cultivation was concentrated into one point, and a brand new pillar of heaven rose from the ground.
Without a moment's hesitation, Ye Kang grabbed a handful of body-tempering plants and stuffed them into his mouth, using the medicinal power to accelerate his ascent.
Soon, the fifth pillar successfully reached six zhang in length. Seeing that the time was ripe, Ye Kang immediately inscribed the Peng Demon Fire Control Technique onto the heavenly pillar.
An aura erupted, like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing, causing the entire island to tremble.
"Huoying, it's your turn!"
Huo Ying, who was already prepared, leaped up, transformed into her original form, merged into the Heavenly Pillar, and became the Peng Demon Totem.
Immediately, the Heavenly Pillar turned blood red and instantly transformed into a Demon Pillar.
A loud, clear cry from a roc bird caused giant waves to surge in the sea surrounding the island.
This scene nearly scared Zhang Zuisheng to death.
"You little rascal! You promised not to make any noise, but you didn't listen at all!"
He's already numb. It's not even the final moment yet, and the commotion is already so big. Can they really keep it a secret?
