"It's good that you understand. I can't be with you all the time. If one day, I have my own things to do and am not around, and you run into trouble, if you don't have enough strength, won't you be a lamb to be slaughtered? So, a blacksmith must be strong himself." Lin Aoxue said. Ye Liuyun's physical realm definitely needs to be improved, because her soul power will increase along with the improvement of her physical strength. If it does not improve, her alchemy skills will also be difficult to improve. Fortunately, Ye Liuyun had made sufficient preparations when he left Silent City. His mind had been entirely focused on his secondary career in the past period of time, so he really had to take some time out during this period to temper his body. Ye Liuyun has a lot of elixirs on him that can accelerate the improvement of physical strength, but it requires practice. The next day, the sun was shining brightly in the morning, and it was another wet day. This tree house is definitely not enough. Lin Aoxue needs a quiet environment for her practice. Ye Liuyun needs a separate room to study elixirs and other secondary occupations, otherwise it will be easy to disturb Lin Aoxue's practice. So after discussing it, the two of them decided to build a larger tree house on the crown of another tree next to it after renovating this one. "Ah, it's time to take a bath again. If possible, I really want to wear a bikini. It's so uncomfortable." Lin Aoxue complained. As soon as the two of them left the isolation range of the formation, they immediately felt water coming out of their bodies and they were soaked in less than a moment. In this damn place, it's impossible to keep using my strength to evaporate the water from my body, so I can only endure it.
The two of them planned to completely set up the camp before exploring the surroundings. As for Bai Lin and Jin Chen, the two little guys had already come down to the ground from the trees. The two of them were wallowing in the swampy waters. As for the monsters in the swamp, they were scared to death at this time and didn't dare to hurt them at all. Under the orders of Bai Lin and the others, the crocodile monsters built a piece of ground made of crocodiles in the swamp. Wherever Jin Chen and Bai Lin ran, the crocodiles followed, just like moving ships, allowing them to command them at will. As long as they were willing, the monsters below the Taoist Palace would be equivalent to slaves. As for the monsters above the Dao Palace, after transforming into human form, they can resist some of the pressure from the divine beasts, but they will still be afraid. "Look, the two of us are so busy, but these two little guys are having a great time." Ye Liuyun complained as he looked at Jin Chen and Bai Lin playing with the crocodiles below. "This place may be a dangerous area for us, but for Jin Chen, Bai Lin and others, it is heaven. Don't worry about them, they will be fine, as long as they don't run too far." Lin Aoxue said. The two of them estimated that it would take them a week to completely set up the camp. After all, if they wanted to live comfortably, they would have to put in a lot of thought and time. Ye Liuyun's tree house is much bigger than Lin Aoxue's, at least three times bigger. The main reason is that she has more things to do, while Lin Aoxue just uses it to rest. These days, Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue had no time to do anything else, so they let Jin Chen and Bai Lin play around. While they were here, basically no powerful monsters would approach. However, there were teams of monks passing through this area every now and then. These teams of monks also discovered the strangeness of this area. After all, the ground was littered with branches cut by sharp blades, which indicated that someone had been active here. But unfortunately, because of the multiple formations blocking the way here, these people couldn’t find the tree house above their heads at all. Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue did not want their camp to be discovered, so when they noticed someone coming, they immediately hid in the tree house and waited until they left before coming out to continue working. In this way, after five days of repeated efforts, they completed the construction of the camp ahead of schedule. "Ah! Done! Perfect. It will be much more comfortable to live in this way." Ye Liuyun said with great satisfaction as he looked at the tree house in front of him. Her tree house was less than ten meters away from Lin Aoxue's, and there was a wooden passage in the middle, through which the two could travel, without getting their bodies wet by the mist. "Your tree house almost occupies the entire tree canopy. Let me tell you, when you are researching elixirs and other secondary occupations, you should be quiet and don't cause too much trouble." Lin Aoxue reminded. Ye Liuyun smiled and nodded, but in fact, she really wanted to say that she had no way to guarantee this. Ye Liuyun has already set up a soundproof formation around Lin Aoxue's residence, so the sounds from outside will not be able to get in. Of course, this can definitely be controlled. The people inside can be selective and soundproofed. In addition, there is a surveillance formation in this area. As long as someone comes to this area, Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue will be able to detect it immediately.
"Okay, I'll go into the house first to prepare my things." Ye Liuyun greeted Lin Aoxue and entered his tree house. "Well, I'll go take a look around too." Lin Aoxue also responded. She took a deep breath and explored in one direction of the rain forest. It is impossible for her and Ye Liuyun to act at the same time all the time. Each of them has their own things to do, and they will act together when necessary. When not necessary, Ye Liuyun will study his secondary profession while Lin Aoxue will go find an opponent to fight. After entering the house, Ye Liuyun simply took off his outer clothes and only wore a bra and trousers. The shape of the bra was a bit similar to the bra on Earth, just covering the chest area. The trousers were actually underwear made of soft material. The main reason was that she did not have the strong spiritual power of Lin Aoxue. The spiritual power in the early stage of Lingxi Realm was not enough to evaporate the mist on her body, and she did not want to keep doing things in wet clothes. She took off all the accessories on her body and tied her hair up casually. Finally, Ye Liuyun took out the various items he had prepared in advance, including a forging table for refining equipment and some tools needed to forge weapons, such as molds. In less than a moment, the room was filled with all kinds of props and special instruments. "Okay, let's try refining equipment first. Master, didn't you say that refining equipment and refining medicine are similar? It shouldn't be difficult for me to learn, right?" Ye Liuyun asked. But Lin Qingyou shook her head. "I'm sorry, I don't know much about the field of refining. Apart from refining medicine, I have also done some research on formations. For other secondary professions, you have to rely on yourself to study. You have the Immortal Fire of All Medicines, so smelting materials must be very simple, but if you want to match the corresponding materials and make them into magic weapons, that will take time." Lin Qingyou replied. Ye Liuyun was at a loss after hearing this and could only go to the smelting furnace and prepare to try it slowly. "Never mind, let's get started first." Ye Liuyun turned on the furnace and released his own elixir-like fairy fire. The emerald green flame merged into the furnace, and the tree house began to become hot. The temperature required for refining this weapon is not comparable to that for refining medicine. After she had completely heated the furnace, she threw the refining materials she had purchased into it. As the materials entered the furnace, they quickly melted into molten iron. Ye Liuyun wanted to refine a low-grade human-level weapon. This thing was the simplest and basically did not require the fusion of multiple materials. It only needed to be melted into molten iron and then turned into iron blocks for multiple hammering. The most difficult part of refining equipment is smelting and quenching materials. Some special auxiliary materials need to be added in the middle, and the auxiliary materials need to be integrated into the main materials. The better the integration, the better the quality. It is not difficult to become a weapon refiner. As long as they are willing, all practitioners can get started, but it is very difficult to grow. In addition, refining equipment is a physical job, and conventional refining is not much different from blacksmithing, so the sound of hammering metal constantly echoes in Ye Liuyun's residence. It took about three hours, and after three hours, Ye Liuyun finally made a small women's sword. However, the sword was too rough and could not be considered a lower-grade human sword. "Oh! It's too rough, a waste." Ye Liuyun just took a look at it and threw it aside. She had to create a flawless human-level lower-grade magic weapon to officially become a human-level weapon refiner. But the contrast of her, a petite and weak girl, swinging a hammer with her bare chest is too great. There are almost no female monks who work as weapon refiners. It would be good if there is one female weapon refiner among a thousand weapon refiners. "Bang, bang..." The sound of blacksmithing continued. Fortunately, Ye Liuyun had the foresight to take off her coat in advance. If she hadn't taken off her coat, her clothes would soon be dyed black. At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Liuyun, who had just finished making a weapon, threw the weapon aside with great dissatisfaction. There were already seven defective products piled up in her room. Her speed in refining equipment is getting faster and faster, and her level is also improving, but she is still a long way from success and needs time to hone her skills. "Oh! It's really difficult without the blessing of the Wanyao Immortal Cauldron." Ye Liuyun was quite frustrated. I can only say that refining medicine was too smooth before, but refining equipment is full of difficulties.
"Hehe, nonsense. If you didn't have my alchemy skills, it would be just as troublesome." Lin Qingyou said with a smile as she looked at Ye Liuyun who was frustrated. "Eh? Master, why do I feel like you seem very happy to see me being humiliated?" Ye Liuyun said dissatisfiedly. "That's for sure. You call me master, but in your heart, I'm afraid you don't take me as your master at all." Lin Qingyou tapped Ye Liuyun's chest and asked with narrowed eyes. Indeed, it would be better to say that Ye Liuyun and Lin Qingyou have a sisterly relationship rather than a master-disciple relationship. In any case, Ye Liuyun lacks the respect for an elder towards Lin Qingyou, and she seems very casual. "Hey, Master, why do I have to show my utmost respect to you? I think, in normal times, it's okay to be more casual." Ye Liuyun said with a grin. Lin Qingyou had no way to deal with her, but at this moment, Lin Qingyou suddenly glanced outside. "Some people are coming, and there are quite a lot of them. They will pass through this area soon, so be careful." Lin Qingyou reminded. When Ye Liuyun heard this, he immediately put away his smile, put down what he was doing, ran out of the tree house, jumped onto a branch with a wide view, and looked in a certain direction. Once he left the tree house area, the stains on Ye Liuyun's body were quickly washed off. As for what was going on over there, I saw a female monk riding a flying sword, quickly shuttling through the rainforest. This female monk was dressed like a man, and it seemed that she was most likely a man. She was fleeing with an injured girl in a blue dress on her back. Behind them, there were a dozen monks chasing after them. Judging from their attire, they were probably independent cultivators. "Brother Yu, you, don't worry about me. I, I can't hold on any longer. You can't escape if you go on like this. Please let me go." The girl pleaded weakly with a pale face. The two men had multiple wounds on their bodies. The wounds on the female monk in men's clothing were mainly superficial, but the girl in the blue skirt had multiple wounds that were fatal. In particular, there was a knife wound on her back that was nearly half a foot long, and blood was constantly oozing out of it. If this continued, the girl would sooner or later die from excessive bleeding. Getting injured in the Wind-Crying Rainforest is a very troublesome thing, because the humidity in this area is too heavy, and the wounds are almost always soaked in water and cannot heal. "Yao'er, hold on, you must hold on, I will be able to get rid of them soon." The female monk in men's clothing looked at the girl behind her, her breath becoming weaker and weaker, and said in panic. One of these two people is a casual cultivator named Yan Yu, and the other is Chen Yao, a direct disciple of the Yuming Sect. The Yuming Sect is one of the ten major sects in the Yun Sect. The so-called ten major sects are the four lower-level sects plus six powerful sects. The six powerful sects are Tianfu Sect, Yuming Sect, Linglan Sect, Fengjian Sect, Siji Sect, and Tianlei Sect. Before, Yan Yu was indeed a male, but she changed her gender because of the last collective sex change phenomenon. The girl she carried on her back was the love of her life. The experiences of Yan Yu and Chen Yao are somewhat similar to those of Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue. The two of them were born in the same place and were going to get married. Unfortunately, on the day of their wedding, an elder from the Yuming Sect passed by their town, and found that Chen Yao had good qualifications, so he forcibly took Chen Yao away. Yan Yu was naturally unwilling to see his wife being taken away like this, but she did not have the aptitude to cultivate immortality. To put it bluntly, she did not have spiritual roots. Without spiritual roots and without entering the immortal path, there was no way he could find his woman. But maybe hard work pays off. On the way to Yuming Sect, Yan Yu accidentally met a dying cultivator. Yan Yu saved him out of kindness, but unfortunately the cultivator eventually died of his injuries. But before he died, he gave everything he had to Yan Yu, including a very special martial arts book called Soul-Swallowing Technique. This technique requires devouring the spiritual roots of others in order to practice, and can only be used by mortals without spiritual roots. By devouring the spiritual roots of others, one can condense pseudo spiritual roots in one's own body and embark on the path to immortality. There is nothing wrong with the name of this technique, but the effect of this technique is definitely an evil one.
The person she saved was actually an evil cultivator who swallowed a lot of cultivators' spiritual roots in order to improve the quality of his own spiritual roots. But he was unlucky and was bumped into by righteous cultivators. He was then besieged and seriously injured and died. Before he died, he learned Yan Yu's story, so he taught her to practice the Soul Devouring Technique, and then let her devour his own spiritual roots, sending Yan Yu into the world of cultivation. This can also be considered fate. And Yan Yu successfully infiltrated the Yuming Sect with the fake spiritual roots he devoured from the evil cultivator, and met his fiancée Chen Yao. But now Chen Yao is a direct disciple of Yuming Sect, while she is just an ordinary outer disciple. It is difficult for the two to meet. Besides, what would happen if they met? As soon as she entered the cultivation world, she knew that it was basically impossible for her to be with Chen Yao with her strength. So she chose to protect the other person silently in secret, while trying to improve her own cultivation, waiting for the day of reunion. In this way, the two of them practiced in the same sect for decades without knowing each other. Chen Yao has reached the late stage of the Spiritual Pattern Realm, and Yan Yu has also reached the early stage of the Spiritual Pattern Realm. However, Yan Yu's practice was accompanied by bloody killings. Once, she was accidentally discovered to have devoured someone else's spiritual roots by the sect. She was forced to defect from the Yuming Sect and wandered in the Liuyang Mountains. However, all the people Yan Yu killed, without exception, were those who came to her on their own initiative or who were looking for trouble. Her Soul Devouring Technique had never devoured the spiritual roots of an innocent person. But even so, she was still labeled as a heretic and was hunted down and wanted by the Yuming Sect with a bounty on her head. Fortunately, the last yin and yang reversal phenomenon turned her into a woman, which allowed her to completely escape the pursuit and wanted list. A few hours ago, the team led by Chen Yao was attacked by a large group of independent cultivators in Fengqi Rain Forest. Except for her, all the rest of her fellow disciples were killed by the independent cultivators. Yan Yu happened to witness this scene. She attacked some wandering cultivators from behind, desperately rescued Chen Yao from their siege, and then fled all the way. During their escape, the ill-fated couple finally recognized each other, but that group of wandering cultivators would not let them go. The main reason is that she dare not let these independent cultivators go. Chen Yao already knows their identities and they must be rooted out, otherwise they will have to face the bloody revenge of the Yuming Sect. "Brother Yu, I didn't expect that you have been by my side all these years and I was completely unaware of it. I also didn't expect that you would practice evil skills and embark on the path of cultivation just to find me. All of this is my fault." Chen Yao said weakly while lying on Yan Yu's back. "Yao'er, stop talking. Just hold on for a while. I will definitely help you escape from the pursuit. You must believe me." Yan Yu wanted Chen Yao to save some strength so that she could hold on longer. But Chen Yao knew very well that the other party was chasing her relentlessly, and her injuries could not be stabilized at all. Death was already beckoning her. She must say everything she wanted to say while she still had the strength. "Brother Yu, I really can't hold on any longer. I hope, I hope, we can be husband and wife again in the next life." As Chen Yao spoke, her arms around Yan Yu's neck finally loosened weakly. Yan Yu felt the life breath of the person behind her disappear, and she was stunned. She gradually stopped flying and did not continue to run away. "Yao'er, Yao'er, Chen Yao, say something." Yan Yu shouted a few times with a frightened look on his face. But unfortunately, there was no response. She lowered her head and whimpered for a while, then looked up at the sky with a painful expression and let out a mournful roar. "No... God, why did you do this to me? Why did you take away my last hope?" The place where Yan Yu stayed was just below Ye Liuyun and his group's camp. So Ye Liuyun clearly saw Yan Yu crying and roaring below. She was stunned for a moment when she saw this scene. "Oh!" Ye Liuyun sighed sadly when he saw this scene. As soon as Yan Yu stopped, the pursuers quickly surrounded her.
"You nosy bitch, run, why don't you run? Oh, it seems that the girl from Yuming Sect is dead after all. Why bother? The sooner she dies, the sooner she will be reborn. It's just a waste of our time." The leader of the other side, a casual cultivator at the peak of the Spiritual Pattern Realm, mocked at the dead Chen Yao. Yan Yu was no longer talking. She controlled the flying sword and landed on a nearby tree branch. She gently put her wife down, then suddenly raised her head and looked at those wandering cultivators with red, bloodthirsty eyes. "You, you all must die." Yan Yu made a horrifying hoarse sound like a demon demanding his life. These people were also shocked by Yan Yu's murderous gaze. But they immediately remembered that they were in numbers, so why should they be afraid of her? So they toughened up again. “Hmph! You’re just in the early stage of the Spirit Pattern Realm, and you dare to brag? You look pretty good, but after I capture you, I will take away your Yuan Yin with my own hands. Then we’ll see how arrogant you can be.” The leading cultivator was frightened by Yan Yu’s murderous aura at first, but soon, he became angry and embarrassed, and a cold and cruel expression appeared in his eyes. There was no desire to live in Yan Yu's eyes anymore. She just wanted to kill these people.
