Chapter 3220 - 3220 Recruitment

3220 Recruitment

The old man crossed his arms behind his back, circled around Ling Han, and said, Ive come this time firstly to retrieve the Blood Divine Crystal, and secondly to kill you.

Ling Hans heart jolted. It was that mysterious force again. The reaction speed was really fast. It had not been too long since Zha Deyuans death.

He was sure that the monkey-like old geezer standing in front of him had unfathomable abilities. He definitely wasnt the level of Blood Transformation Tier, but at least an Extreme Bone Tier.

If he fought with all his might, he would definitely die.

However, the old geezer didnt immediately make a move, giving him a shred of hope.

En, he definitely had to prepare some powerful Talisman Weapons in the future. No matter how expensive they were, he didnt care. The feeling of being at the mercy of others was too terrible.

Yi, arent you going to yell for help? the little old man asked curiously.

Ling Han shook his head, and said, With Seniors strength, killing me is only the matter of a single thought. What use is there for me to call out?

Hahaha, the little guy is indeed very interesting, the old man said with a laugh. At first, I indeed wanted to kill you and leave without a second thought. Killing a measly Meridian Opening Tier cultivator and actually having me personally take action, isnt that just causing trouble for me?

Hence, this old man really hate you for it. On the way here, Ive already thought of all kinds of ways for you to die.

However, to actually find you in the Alchemy a.s.sociation, this old man is a little curious.

Thus, I went to make some queries, and only then did I discover that you are actually a High Level Alchemist.

Among the alchemists in the Majestic Empire, no matter how prodigious they are, they would still have to pa.s.s the age of sixty to have any hope of advancing into the threshold of a High Level alchemist.

Wouldnt it be a pity to kill such a prodigy?

Ling Han smiled, and said, Thank you for your insight, Senior.

The old man chuckled and said, Milord is a supreme prodigy. In the future, hell become the ruler of the world! I cherish talent, and Master also cherishes talent. Thus, Ive decided to give you a chance.

What chance? Ling Han asked with a smile.

Submit to our Lord, the old man said. I can make the decision to gift that Blood Divine Crystal to you.

Ling Han thought for a moment, then asked, Then what should I do?

Hehe, you can stay here for the time being. The old man took out a bottle from within his robes, and tossed it towards Ling Han. Take the medicine inside.

Ling Han opened the bottle and poured out a yellow-coloured alchemical pill. There was only one, and it had a slight sweet fragrance to it.

This is called the Soul Departing Pill, the old man said. After ingesting it, the medicinal effects will only take effect a year later. However, dont worry. As long as you work earnestly for my lord, there will naturally be an antidote for you every year, and as long as you are loyal and devoted, it would not be difficult for you to obtain an eternal antidote.

Of course, if you are not obedient hehe, this will cause you to die a very, very tragic death!

Without the slightest hesitation, Ling Han immediately swallowed the alchemical pill.

He had no choice. If he didnt accept the medicine, he would end up being immediately killed by the old man.

In the case of poison, Ling Han was really unafraid. As the Alchemy Emperor, how could it be that he would not be able to find the antidote within a year?

Very decisive, this old man admires you very much. The old man smiled, You just wait on standby first. For the moment, there isnt any work for you to do. Oh, thats right, leave Huju City within half a month.

Ling Hans heart jolted again. What would happen in Huju City half a month later?

Previously, Zha Deyuan had already said that he would not be able to escape death even if he returned to Huju City. Now, the old man had disclosed the same intention. What kind of calamity would befall Huju City? No matter where he hid in the city, it would not be safe.

He did not ask. Clearly, the other party could not possibly tell him. He was far from being trusted.

Alright, Im leaving. Work hard and strive to become an alchemy grandmaster before thirty years old. That way, you can become my lords right-hand man, and your future prospects will be limitless! The old man nodded at Ling Han before opening the door and taking his leave.

Oh, thats right. Every night at midnight, you will feel slight pain. This is the normal effect of the medicine, and will not take your life.

Ling Han hurriedly set off in pursuit. However, when he rushed out the door, there was no sign of the old man anywhere.

This old geezer is at least an elite of Extreme Bone Tier. The feeling he gives me is that hes completely unmatched, far surpa.s.sing Zha Deyuan, Ling Han murmured. Am I considered lucky or unlucky?

If he were unlucky, he would have long since been killed by the old man.

Hence, he was still quite lucky. He had come to be certified as a High Level alchemist on a sudden impulse, which allowed the old man to see his worthiness.

The most important thing now is to cure the poison first.

Ling Han raised his hand, and there was a little bit of the alchemical pill under his fingernails. He had sc.r.a.ped this out before ingesting the alchemical pill, and did not dare sc.r.a.pe out too much, fearing that the old man would discover it.

Also, I have to go and warn Lian Xuerong.

Ive suffered such a great loss just now, and the reason is still because Im not strong enough. Otherwise, I can teach this old geezer how to behave.

Yi?

Ling Han was startled. He suddenly realized that he had sensed the eighth Hidden Meridian.

It can work like this as well?

He really didnt know whether to thank that old man or curse him, because the pressure the other party exerted upon him gave him enlightenment.

He would break through first.

He set down the Spirit Gathering Formation and went to open up the last meridian.

Slightly less than half a day later, the eighth Hidden Meridian had also been opened up.

Come, rich mans formation.

Ling Han called his little female attendant over. He had no wish to waste it.

Another half day later, the eighth Hidden Meridian Meridian had already expanded to the extreme. He had finally walked to the end of the Meridian Opening Tier.

However, is Twenty Meridians really the limit of Meridian Opening Tier? Ling Han murmured.

Its clear that Tuoba Tianhuangs power will also reach Twenty Meridians. In that case, even if I have the advantage in the width of my meridians and the flow rate of mystical power as compared to him, my advantage isnt very great.

Furthermore, there should be no shortage of prodigies like Tuoba Tianhuang. Who knows, there may be others like me.

With the peak stage of Meridian Opening such as this, I dont think its the limit or the end.

Ling Han clenched his fists tightly, I want to become the strongest!

Aside from the Twelve True Meridians and Extraordinary Eight Meridians, are there any other meridians in the human body?

From my experience in the Genesis World, there are still innumerable tiny meridians in the human body. Although the mystical power that can be stored is limited, a little acc.u.mulation makes a lot, and added together, it cant be ignored.

All right, this is my direction.

Ling Han had the little female attendant continue to cultivate in the formations, while he went to the Xuanqing Banner to warn the other party again.

He did not go into too much detail. Since the old man was so confident, he was sure that not many people would be able to resolve the poison of this Soul Departing Pill. Thus, even if he told Lian Xuerong, it would be useless.

Half a month? Lian Xuerong nodded. Ill inform the other three banners to keep an eye out for any movements.

Ling Han wasnt very optimistic about this. The old mans tone was far too certain. He definitely wasnt being arrogant, but confident in his own abilities.

Well see how things go. Ill take care of myself first and prepare for both scenarios. If it really cant be done, Ill call Sect Master Sun and Huan Xue to leave together.
