Taichu Yandao: Starting from the Villain

In the sea of ​​fog.

Yao Gu and the other two knew nothing about Zhao Xuan's arrangements. They watched the Climbing Vine retreating like the tide and did not dare to move.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, all of this depends on you." said Yao Gu.

Chen Tianhuo frowned and asked, "Why do you say that? This matter is very strange. Before I figure it out, I dare not take risks easily."

Medicine Aunt smiled and said, "Of course we have to find out. You see there are quite a few storage bags around here. Can you use fire to test them first and see how the Sky Climbing Vine reacts? Even if we can't get the Demon Emperor's storage bag, we won't return empty-handed."

Chen Tianhuo glanced at the ground and saw storage bags hanging around the waists of the corpses not far away.

There were also two corpses with precious light flashing on their hands, which were most likely even more precious storage rings.

He hesitated for a moment and said, "It's still a little dangerous! So, let's build a few fires. If something really happens, I'll have time to escape."

"Okay! No problem." said Yao Gu.

At the side, Qiu Yong immediately picked up the firewood and piled it on the corpse on the left based on the previous fire.

About half an hour later, two piles of fire were built. The one in the front was only about ten steps away from the nearest corpse.

Chen Tianhuo held the ebony sword in his hand, made a gesture, and the whole sword immediately burst into flames.

But he was still worried, so he turned around and said, "You two, help me keep an eye on it!"

"Don't worry, fellow Daoist. Without you, there's no way the two of us would be able to leave the sea of ​​fog alive." Medicine Aunt comforted.

Chen Tianhuo felt relieved. He took a deep breath, tensed all his muscles, accelerated suddenly, and rushed towards the corpse.

The distance of ten steps is extremely short for a cultivator, but Chen Tianhuo did not dare to be careless at all. He picked up the storage bag on the ground with one hand, turned around and ran.

Beside the fire, Qiu Yong and Yao Gu stared at their surroundings intently, not daring to blink.

However, until Chen Tianhuo came back, the two did not notice anything unusual, and the climbing vine in the distance was motionless.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, there is no movement at all." Yao Gu said.

"That's great. It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. It seems like we are lucky." Chen Tianhuo held the storage bag in his hand and probed his spiritual sense into it.

In the five-foot square storage bag, apart from a small bag of spirit stones and clothes, there were only four pill bottles.

Chen Tianhuo was a little disappointed. He took out the four pill bottles and said, "This person is not rich. There is only a small bag of spirit stones and these four pill bottles in his storage bag."

The medicine lady took the pill bottle, uncorked the pills one by one, and said, "This is a Qi and Blood Pill, this is a pill for healing injuries, this is a detoxification pill, and this..."

When she picked up the last pill bottle, her expression became serious and she said, "Any sealed pill is usually extraordinary."

After she finished speaking, she immediately took out a silver needle and carefully pierced the wax seal on the top of the pill bottle.

After she pierced through the wax layer, she pulled out the silver needle, leaving a small hole, and put it to the tip of her nose to sniff.

"This is... the foundation-building pill." Yao Gu's face was filled with joy.

Chen Tianhuo was shocked and asked hurriedly, "Really? What grade?"

Medicine Aunt placed the pill bottle next to the flame and roasted it. She said, "Thank you for your kindness, fellow Daoist. However, I cannot tell the grade of the pill based on a pinhole. I will have to wait until we get back to the city and find a professional appraiser to do it."

Chen Tianhuo laughed loudly and said, "It is I who am anxious."

Medicine Auntie pressed on the softened wax seal to seal the small hole and said with a smile, "This is just the beginning. The best is yet to come."

Chen Tianhuo was full of excitement. Without saying a word, he stood up and continued to cut down trees.

This time, the few people became bolder and built a fire every fifteen steps.

Soon, the three of them built four more bonfires and then came to a storage ring.

Chen Tianhuo did the same thing, holding the ebony sword, and dodged to pick up the storage ring.

Yao Gu and Qiu Yong came to Chen Tianhuo's side with anticipation on their faces.

Chen Tianhuo smiled and immediately immersed his spiritual consciousness in it to investigate.

After a moment, he flipped his hand, took out a small bag of spirit stones, handed it to Qiu Yong and said, "Mid-grade spirit stones, this time we are rich, we can directly use the mid-grade spirit stones to recover, and mana will not be a problem."

Qiu Yong was overjoyed. He took the bag of spirit stones, grabbed a medium-grade spirit stone and began to recover.

Chen Tianhuo took out another piece of golden armor and said, "I'll take care of the storage bag. Just in case, I'll put this treasure on first. Do you have any objections?"

The golden armor was so full of spiritual energy that how could Yao Gu and her husband not know that it was a treasure? This was the first time they had seen a magic weapon at such a close distance in all their practice.

However, what Chen Tianhuo said made sense, and the two of them didn't know what to say, so they just nodded in agreement.

Chen Tianhuo made a hand gesture and put the golden armor directly on the outside, patting it back and forth, unable to hide the smile on his face.

Then, he handed the ring to Medicine Nun and said, "This storage ring has quite a lot of space. Fellow Daoist An, you can take it first! There are some spiritual medicines in it, which I don't understand. We can distribute them after we go out."

Yao Gu was overjoyed. She took the ring and put it on immediately, saying, "Then I will be disrespectful to refuse it!"

All three of them benefited and were in a very happy mood. Wherever they looked, the countless dry bones were no longer scary, but instead turned into treasures full of various possibilities.

Half a day later, Chen Tianhuo's hands were already full of rings. He threw away an empty storage bag and said, "You two, I don't have many talismans anymore. I can't waste them on these ordinary storage bags."

Qiu Yong was sweating profusely. He put down a bundle of firewood and said, "We have already laid out two miles of firewood and have not encountered any danger! Why don't we just go and get it?"

Medicine Aunt frowned and said, "We still can't be careless. Let's get the most important Demon Emperor storage bag first. If there is really no danger, we can go back and get the remaining storage bags."

"If I get the Demon Emperor's storage bag, what do I need these garbage for!" Chen Tianhuo said with a smile.

Medicine Aunt said seriously, "Fellow Daoist, you have a sect and a school, but you don't understand the hardships of us independent cultivators! This kind of opportunity may only come once in this lifetime. If there is no danger and it only takes a little effort to bend over, why not take it?"

Chen Tianhuo curled his lips, speechless for a moment. He took out a big axe and went straight to the tree he had cut down before.

At this point, the three men's vigilance relaxed further, and they only built a bonfire every thirty steps.

When the last bonfire was lit, the three were only seven or eight steps away from the Demon Emperor's corpse.

The firelight shone on the face of the corpse, and at first glance, it seemed no different from any other corpse.

Chen Tianhuo looked at it for a while and said, "This is the corpse of the Demon Emperor. It looks exactly like us humans. Isn't it said that after a demon dies, its true form will be revealed?"
