Chapter 165 Mysterious Alchemy Cauldron
However, the attentive Qin Tian discovered that Cao Xu, who was standing behind the crowd, had a fiery look on his face towards the alchemy cauldron that had been preserved thousands of years ago.
But his eyes flickered slightly and kept scanning the surroundings, as if he was looking for something! Obviously there is another plan!
Seeing this situation, Qin Tian couldn't help but feel even more shocked and confused!
At this moment, the situation on the field suddenly changed!
I saw nearly twenty monks in the underground palace, roughly divided into three camps.
Among them, there are eight people from the Loose Cultivator Alliance, which is currently the most powerful camp in the underground palace, and its leader has a cultivation level at the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining!
Next were the Blood Spirit Demon Sect monks wearing blood robes, a total of six people gathered together.
On the surface, the weakest ones were Qianyuan Sect and Taiyi Sect, probably because the number of monks present from the two sects was only three.
Perhaps due to the good relationship between the two sects and the drive for profit, the monks from the two sects quickly reached a consensus and formed a joint force to compete with the other two camps!
And Cao Xu, who also had the ninth level of Qi Refining, did his part and became the temporary leader.
The so-called treasure disturbs people's hearts, let alone the important treasure right in front of them, how can it not make people feel itchy and unbearable?
So after a fruitless argument, a fierce melee began in the underground palace.
For a moment, the sounds of magical weapons whistling, spells bombing, and spiritual talismans exploding suddenly resounded in the underground palace.
Even after only a moment of fierce fighting, screams could be heard. It was obvious that the combatants had inevitably suffered casualties.
On the other hand, Cao Xu, when he was fighting against the leader of the Loose Cultivator Alliance alone, still looked absent-minded. His eyes were wandering around, looking around, and he didn't know what he was planning secretly.
Such behavior directly aroused the people of the casual cultivator alliance on the opposite side to be furious, and they couldn't help but be a little more fierce when they struck.
As for Qin Tian, who is hidden in the dark tunnel and sits on the mountain watching the fight between tigers and tigers, he is the most leisurely one in the audience...
As time went by, the number of casualties in the field continued to increase. Even after half an hour, the only people who were still fighting fiercely in the field were just a few ninth-level Qi Refining monks.
The remaining people all lay on the ground, either seriously injured or simply died on the spot.
At this moment, Cao Xu, who was in the midst of a fierce battle, had a look of impatience on his face, and then he opened his mouth and shouted suddenly:
"Stop! Everyone, listen to what Cao has to say!"
After hearing this, the eyes of everyone in the field flickered, and they all involuntarily slowed down their offensive.
Seeing this situation, a sinister look flashed in Cao Xu's eyes, but he said loudly and righteously:
"I dare to ask you fellow Taoists, we don't even know what treasures are in the alchemy cauldron, but we are fighting for life and death here. Isn't it a bit unreasonable?"
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the people who were fighting all stopped their hands and stood up. A monk from the Blood Spirit Demon Sect in red robes even cursed unceremoniously:
"If you fucking fart, just let it go, don't whine!"
When Cao Xu heard this, a gloomy look suddenly appeared on his face, but he suppressed the anger in his heart and said coldly:
"Cao's idea is very simple. We might as well open the alchemy cauldron first to see what miraculous medicine is in it. It's not too late to discuss the issue of ownership. Otherwise, if the alchemy cauldron is empty at the end of the fight, wouldn't it be a slippery slope in the world? Daji!”
As soon as this statement came out, everyone present communicated secretly, obviously very excited about this proposal, but also quite worried.
Seeing this situation, Cao Xu quickly struck while the iron was hot and said:
"I think it would be better to have one person from each of the three parties, including me, go to uncover the alchemy cauldron together. This way, we can guarantee absolute fairness! What do you fellow Taoists think?"
Hearing this, several ninth-level Qi Refining monks in the field nodded in agreement. The leading monk of the Loose Cultivator Alliance took the lead and said with a sneer:
"In this case, in order to prevent any accidents from happening during the opening of the cauldron, I will personally go into battle!"
Upon seeing this, the Blood Spirit Demon Sect monks on the other side quickly stepped out and a leader echoed:
"That's right. Who knows if there is anything weird about the things that were passed down thousands of years ago? I will do my best to do so!"
Seeing this situation, many other people with ordinary strength had many complaints in their hearts, but several leading monks had reached an agreement. With such a general trend, no one dared to speak out against it.
When Cao Xu saw this, a hidden sneer flashed in his eyes, but he put on a weak and pale look on his face, turned to a Qianyuan Sect monk behind him and said:
"Junior brother, Cao accidentally suffered some internal injuries during the battle. Therefore, how about leaving this matter of opening the cauldron to junior brother?"
At the same time, the weak voice of Cao Xu’s spiritual message also sounded in the ears of the white-robed monk of the Qianyuan Sect:
"With Cao's help, junior brother, just step forward with confidence. If you get the spiritual elixir later, junior brother will definitely be indispensable!"
After hearing this, especially the secret message, the white-robed monk whose cultivation level was no higher than the eighth level of Qi Refining was stunned for a moment, then quickly showed a hint of joy and said with his hands:
"Thank you very much for your care, Senior Brother Cao. I will definitely live up to Senior Brother Cao's high expectations!"
After saying this, the white-robed monk quickly stepped forward and headed towards the alchemy cauldron with the other two leading monks.
Seeing this, the two leading monks were a little confused, but they didn't think much about it. After all, Cao Xu took the initiative to give up the opportunity to get close to the alchemy cauldron, which undoubtedly gave them a few more chances to seize the elixir.
Qin Tian, who was hiding in the dim cave and witnessed the whole process, sneered in his heart.
After all, based on his understanding of Cao Xu, this boy would never do such a disadvantageous move, but now he is so abnormal, there must be some plan!
Thinking of this, Qin Tian hurriedly pushed the white jade pendant on his waist to the limit, trying his best to restrain his own breath, and made up his mind to be a qualified "yellow bird"!
As for the people in charge of opening the cauldron on the other side, after walking to the center of the underground palace, the three people showed excitement on their faces at the same time, and their eyes were full of fiery colors.
As for the other monks in the three camps, they couldn't help but cast curious and envious eyes.
However, when everyone's attention was attracted by the elixir that was about to be produced in the cauldron, no one noticed that Cao Xu had retreated to the back of the crowd without knowing when.
And in his hand, there was a small blue jade talisman, shining with a faint spiritual light...
