Elf's hand

The medicine collecting hall of the Medicine Hall.

As soon as he stepped into the door of the herb collection hall, he was greeted by the smell of herbs. Chu Haoren took a deep breath of the familiar smell, and strode in energetically.

A lush and vast medicinal garden, looking around, you can see a vast field of vision, covering an area of ​​dozens of miles.

I saw several disciples from the Medicine Collection Hall, bending down and busy in the medicine garden.

In front of the steps of the main hall on the east side of the medicine garden, a beautiful figure fell into Chu Haoren's eyes.

Lin Xin was sitting on the steps, with several exquisite baskets placed beside her.

In front of her were piles of various medicinal materials collected by the disciples of the Herb Collection Hall. Her white jade-like slender fingers were picking up one of the herbs that was still stained with mud, put it in her mouth, and chewed it gently. Green juice overflowed from her mouth, and suddenly, her slender brows moved.

Lin Xin immediately threw the herb out, and it landed accurately in a basket on the right.

Then, Lin Xin picked up another herb and tasted it to identify it.

Seeing this scene, Chu Haoren quietly appeared beside her with a chuckle on his lips. He glanced at the piles of herbal materials. The tips of his fingers quietly gushed out with wisps of turquoise luster, and they were immediately submerged in them. Among the herbs.

Integrated with this ray of pure natural power, the pile of herbs seemed to have spirituality, slowly flying up, and each one was thrown into the baskets.

Lin Xin, who was concentrating on identifying the herbs, suddenly raised her head, a look of sullenness appeared on her beautiful face. However, when she saw Chu Haoren's joking smile, a hint of anger flashed through her beautiful eyes. , sighed softly, "Why is His Royal Highness the King of Chu here?"

Chu Haoren shook his head helplessly and sighed. Lin Xin had been stubbornly calling himself the King of Chu ever since she was sent to Chu by the Alchemy Altar.

Chu Haoren really didn't know how to deal with such an alienated attitude. Sometimes he couldn't help teasing Lin Xin, but Lin Xin was always lukewarm towards him, leaving him without any temper.

"I came to discuss something with you!"

Chu Haoren shrugged his shoulders and said casually.

Lin Xin sorted out the herbs in the basket and said calmly: "Your Highness, just ask!"

Chu Haoren twitched the corner of his mouth and could only say: "I want to refine the black nightmare snail."

Lin Xin's expression changed, and she raised her head in surprise: "Black Nightmare Snail?"

"Not bad!"

Chu Haoren nodded and said slowly: "The Black Nightmare Snail is something unique to the Black Nightmare Clan, and generally cannot be obtained by outsiders. However, I happen to have information on how to refine the Black Nightmare Snail, but I just lack some materials."

The information about the refining of the black nightmare snail was obtained from Zhao Lie. Chu Haoren had not wanted to refine it before, but considering that the current turmoil in the Eryan Kingdom was very strange, he decided to do this in order to find out. .

The nightmare real body that was snatched from Huo Shandu in Shuiyue Cave Sky had undergone tremendous changes on the fourth level of Shuiyue Cave Heaven. When leaving Shuiyue Cave Sky, Chu Haoren could only use the communication of thoughts to let the nightmare real body leave. Water Moon Cave Sky, go and meet yourself.

It's a pity that for so long, there has been no news about the two nightmares.

There is also a distance limit when controlling the true form of the nightmare. Beyond the limited distance, Chu Haoren will lose sensitivity to the true form of the nightmare.

Judging from Chu Haoren's current state, he can sense whenever the true form of the nightmare appears in the territory of Chu State, but he has never noticed it. This can only mean one thing, that is, the true form of the nightmare has not appeared. In the state of Chu.

There is a high possibility that something happened to the real nightmare in Shuiyue Cave.

Therefore, Chu Haoren's initial plan was to refine the black nightmare snail and regain control of a nightmare true body to complete his plan.

Lin Xin glanced at Chu Haoren with strange eyes, and said with a frown: "The black nightmare snail is extremely sinister and vicious, and is feared and hated by the world. Why are you refining this thing?"

The Black Nightmare Clan uses the Black Nightmare Snail to control the Nightmare Ones, which is highly criticized by the world and is one of the reasons why the Black Nightmare Clan's reputation has been ruined. Lin Xin is also very dissatisfied with Chu Haoren's approach.

Chu Haoren shrugged his shoulders, "If it weren't for something important, I wouldn't have thought of refining this thing. Don't worry, I won't use this black nightmare snail to harm a good person. I can promise you!"

Lin Xin rolled her eyes at Chu Haoren and packed up the basket full of herbs, "His Royal Highness, there is no need to promise me anything!"

Chu Haoren was helpless, and again, there was really nothing he could do to her.

Lin Xin stood up and gently picked up the heavy basket with a hoe, lifting it with ease, "What materials do you need? I'll prepare them for you right now!"

Chu Haoren shook his head and sighed, walking side by side to the main hall of the Herb Collection Hall with Lin Xin.

After Lin Xin's careful selection, Lin Xiaofeng finally got some of the materials he wanted, and then he left the Medicine Collection Hall and came to the Inner Alchemy Hall.

According to the information about the black nightmare snail provided by Zhao Lie, Chu Haoren spent a day and finally used the Sword Tiger Medicine Furnace to successfully refine a black nightmare snail.

There are rumors in the human world that black nightmare snails are abundant in the Death Desert of the Black Nightmare Tribe. But because outsiders don't know these details, they think black nightmare snails are an extremely dangerous item.

But in fact

Reading in sections 290

, this black nightmare snail was just an ordinary snail in the desert of death. Later, after being refined by the powerful men of the black nightmare clan, it turned into a vicious thing that can control the walking dead.

Looking at the black nightmare snail in the palm of his hand, which is feared by the world and is as black as ink, Chu Haoren breathed a sigh of relief and murmured: "The black nightmare snail of the Black Nightmare tribe must be worn on the ears, it is too dazzling. There will be mistakes if anyone sees it, so I might as well do something."

Thinking of this, Chu Haoren's eyes flashed, and he had a plan in his mind. He once again activated the meteorite fire in the sword tiger's medicine furnace, and took out a large amount of rare materials from the silver wing ring, and poured it into the sword tiger continuously. In the medicine furnace.

After the materials in the medicine furnace were refined to a certain temperature, Chu Haoren threw the black nightmare snail into it.

The Black Nightmare Snail was tempered with various materials in the medicine furnace. The black luster gradually faded away, becoming crystal green, and finally turned into a clear jasper-like heart shape.

Chu Haoren dispersed the meteorite flames, took the re-refined black nightmare snail in his hand, and nodded with satisfaction, "This thing is more concealed than the black nightmare snail, and it is not as vicious and vicious as the black nightmare snail. After taking people's lives, they still use their corpses to do evil. This thing only needs to be placed on someone else's body, and it can create a spiritual connection and communicate with the other person. It would be better to call it Lingxi Jade!"

After making the decision, Chu Haoren was in a very good mood. He flew out of the medicine hall and came to Rising Sun City unnoticed that night.

At midnight, a strong and well-trained team quietly left Rising Sun City.

Chu Haoren led an elite force of 500 people led by Zhao Lie, and drove dozens of huge and powerful roaring eagles through the air.

At dawn, the group returned to Chucheng.

The next morning, King Chu Haoren held a court meeting. As the King of Chu, he expressed great anger at the rebellion of Eryan Kingdom. At the same time, he severely reprimanded Er Jinyong, the king of Eryan Kingdom, which almost made him angry. Everyone thought that if Er Jinyong were present, he would be torn into pieces by Chu Haoren immediately.

After making this fierce statement, Chu Haoren then ordered Yang Gang, also known as Zhao Lie under the pseudonym, to serve as an envoy to Eryan State to mediate the rebellion in Eryan State.

Everyone in the Chu State was surprised by this sudden appearance of masculinity.

Although the Shadow Army had appeared on the battlefield before, neither Zhao Lie nor the Shadow Army revealed their true identities, especially Zhao Lie. Except for a few limited people such as Chu Haoren, no one knew his true identity. origin.

"Yanggang is the lord of Rising Sun City. In view of his recent outstanding performance, he was appointed as an envoy. As for the team of envoys going to Eryan Kingdom, all members will be drawn from Yanggang from Rising Sun City. All other material expenses, etc., will be borne by the national treasury. out!"

Chu Haoren did not allow these ministers to express their opinions and made the decision in a loud voice.

Zhao Lie took a step forward, bowed and said, "Your Majesty Yanggang honors your order!"

Amid a burst of surprised and weird looks from everyone in the Chu Kingdom, Zhao Lie took the order and left. He immediately led the elite Shadow Army to collect some supplies and expenses, and officially set off from Chu City, carrying Chu Haoren's royal order to Er. Yan State.

After Zhao Lie left, Chu Haoren announced to the outside world that he would be practicing in seclusion, and all major internal and external affairs of Chu State would be left to Chu Xingyan and Chu Yixuan to handle.

Late that night, in the secret room of the palace, Chu Haoren quietly summoned the Crab Claw Tree, used the special ability of the Crab Claw Tree to get into the ground, and left Chu City secretly.

three days later.

Zhao Lie and his party finally arrived at the capital of Eryan Kingdom in the shortest time after traveling non-stop.

However, when they came to the city gate of the capital of Eryan Kingdom, they encountered unexpected treatment.

The entire city of Eryan State's capital was under martial law and the city gates were tightly closed. When Zhao Lie led a team of 500 envoys to appear at the city gate, the soldiers guarding Eryan State's capital were all on alert and bent their bows. When you nock an arrow, you feel like you are facing a powerful enemy.

"Hey~"

A sharp arrow shot out quickly and pierced into the rock in front of Zhao Lie, shooting out sparks.

On the top of the city, a general who was at the level of a fighting general appeared and shouted loudly: "No matter who you are, retreat half a mile immediately!"

Zhao Lie coldly raised Chu Haoren's Chu King's token and said in a deep voice: "I am the envoy of His Highness the King of Chu. Please let Er Jinyong come see me quickly!"

Hearing Zhao Lie's words, the general's expression changed slightly, he was silent for a moment, and said loudly: "His Royal Highness the King will not receive anyone, not even the envoys of His Highness the King of Chu!"

Zhao Lie's eyes shot out with a cold light, and he angrily shouted: "Presumptuous!"

Er Jinyong surrendered to the Chu State, so he should obey the orders of the King of Chu at all times, but he did not receive the envoys of the King of Chu. This was a violation of the king's order.

"Your Majesty the Envoy, in order to protect ourselves, our royal family, the Er family, can only adopt this method. To put it bluntly, if you are a spy sent by those rebellious families, wouldn't we suffer a big loss?" The general who defended the city waved his hands and ordered his men to prepare for battle, while shouting loudly.
