Chapter 148: Meet Hai Bodong Again


    After making sure that there was nothing wrong with the Green Lotus Core me, Xiao Ming did not rush to pick it up directly.


    Instead, he took out a small jade knife from his storage ring and aimed at the part of the lotus tform that was connected to the root, and dropped it with his hand.


    Immediately, the green lotus that was as perfect as a work of art fell down.


    After the lotus left the lotus tform, the green light around it became smaller and smaller.


    Seeing the green lotus fall, Xiao Ming''s palm rushed to grab it, then let it float and turn in front of him, his gaze swept over it, his face full of astonishment.


    ''This Green Lotus is truly a treasure; the Green Lotus Core me does not have the violent nature of a Heavenly me within it.''


    ''This Green Lotus Core me has absorbed so much energy from the earth for so long, it contains enough energy for me to break through to Dou Emperor, and I wonder how many more stars it will allow me to advance after it.''


    Exhaling slightly, suppressing the joy in his heart, Xiao Ming held the Green Lotus and beckoned the Two-Headed me Spirit Serpent in the distance, then followed it from behind, and hurried back from the route from where they had arrived earlier.


    ...


    "Young Master will be out soon...!" At the entrance of the passageway, Qing Lin looked at the calm surface of the magmake with a joyful expression.


    Plop!


    Before Qing Lin''s voice finished ringing, the sound of water breaking echoed in the middle of the space.


    The three of them rushed to look into the magma, only to see Xiao Ming''s figure appear engulfed in mes.


    With a sh, Xiao Ming appeared in front of the three, his hand still holding the Green Lotus.


    "You''re back, Young Master!"


    "Is this the Heavenly me?"


    The gazes of Zi Yan and the other girls were attracted by the Green Lotus in Xiao Ming''s hand, especially Xiao Yi Xian, who among the solutions to her physique, one of them required three kinds of Heavenly me.


    At first, this condition was extremely hard, but now it no longer seemed to be a problem.


    All that was needed was a Monster Core of a rank seven ''Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast''.


    "This Heavenly me is called Green Lotus Core me, it is the neenth in the Heavenly me Ranking, with it, I should be able to break through to Dou Emperor." Xiao Ming said with a smile.


    "Congrattions, Young Master!". Qing Lin heard this and hastened to congratte him.


    On the other hand, Zi Yan beside her was a little helpless, thinking that when they first met, Xiao Ming was even shorter than her and his cultivation level was even lower.


    It was unexpected that in just a few years, Xiao Ming had grown a lot, it was fine for him to grow taller, but his strength was also superior to hers, and now he was about to break through to the Dou Emperor that she had been longing for.


    ''Breaking through to Dou Emperor usually takes a long time, this time, taking advantage of Xiao Ming''s breakthrough by devouring the Heavenly me, maybe I can go out to look for medicinal herbs, then the herbs will all be mine, hehehe.''


    Thinking about the medicinal herbs she will get when she goes outter, Zi Yan startedughing out loud.


    Looking at Zi Yanughing by herself, seeming to be nning another mischief, Xiao Ming shook his head and said to Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin.


    "Alright, this time the Heavenly me has been sessfully found, this ce is incredibly hot, let''s go out first, go back and pack up, then we will leave Desert City."


    After saying that, Xiao Ming led the green lotus towards the passageway.


    Looking at Xiao Ming who turned around and left, Zi Yan came back to her senses and chased after him, taking one of his hands.


    Qing Lin, meanwhile, hurriedly whistled into the magmake, and instantly, above the forehead of the Two-Headed me Spirit Serpent that was in theke, a green glow emerged, and momentster, the huge body quickly shrank before turning into a sliver of green light and flying towards Qing Lin''s sleeve.


    Stroking her sleeve, a small smile emerged on Qing Lin''s little face as she softly said, "Don''t cause trouble in the future, or Young Master will get angry and I''ll throw you out."


    "Hiss..." The slight hiss was slightly tinged with discontent, the Two-Headed me Spirit Serpent did not seem satisfied with its Master''s favoritism.


    "Hee hee." Covering her small mouth andughing softly, Qing Lin put her little hands behind her back, then gave little jumps and ran together with Xiao Yi Xian, who was waiting for her, to chase after Xiao Ming. The four of them gradually disappeared into the darkness of the passageway.


    ...


    Desert City


    Inside the store, a moonlight stone, emitting a bright light, illuminated the store quite brightly.


    It was still furnished in the same way as before, the damage caused by thest battle had been perfectly repaired, and behind the counter piled with maps, the old man bent his head and carefully drew the map in his hands.


    Suddenly, the sound of footsteps outside the door attracted Hai Bodong''s attention.


    Creak!


    The door to the room opened and a few figures came in.


    The ones who came were none other than Xiao Ming and the girls.


    "It''s you! How is it, have you found the medicinal herb I need? "Seeing the visitors, Hai Bodong was overjoyed.


    Hai Bodong''s gaze swept over Xiao Ming and the girls, and finally settled on the Green Lotus next to Xiao Ming.


    ''Could this be… a Heavenly me?''


    A thought shed quickly in his heart, causing a hint of shock to appear on Hai Bodong''s face, and the look he gave Xiao Ming once again was filled with a trace of inexplicable emotions.


    "Here, this is the Sand Datura you need, for this item, I have sealed a Dou Emperor from the other side, and formed a great enmity with them." With a flick of his finger, a pale yellow nt appeared in Xiao Ming''s palm.


    The nt looked rather strange, it coiled as if it were a long yellow snake, and on the top of the nt was the snake''s raised head, and above the snake''s head, a fist-sized lump protruded slightly, and in this lump was where the essence of the whole nt was most dense.


    "Your Excellency the Ice Emperor, I have brought the medicinal material for you, that copy of the remnant map, isn''t it time for you to give it to me?"


    Seal a Dou Emperor from the other side?


    Hai Bodong smiled stiffly at his words, he didn''t feel that the other party was lying, rather, he felt that Xiao Ming was warning him with these words.


    After thinking about it, Hai Bodong walked towards a side door, only to return a momentter.


    In his hand, he held a piece of map.


    "Master Xiao Ming, this is the map you need, now, about the pill... hehe." Hai Bodong rubbed his fingers together and smiled nervously.


    After receiving the map from Hai Bodong''s hand and examining it to make sure it was the real thing, Xiao Ming was satisfied and put it in his storage ring.


    "Since I have already promised to help you refine the pill, I naturally won''t break my promise. However, this matter will have to be dyed a bit."


    Hai Bodong''s face froze at his words.


    Looking at Hai Bodong whose face stiffened, Xiao Ming pointed at the green lotus in his hand, "I need to devour this Heavenly me before I can help you refine it."


    At these words, Hai Bodong''s face stiffened even more, he could understand an Alchemist devouring a Heavenly me, but didn''t Xiao Ming already have a Heavenly me? How would he devour another one now?


    Although he wasn''t an Alchemist, Hai Bodong knew that Alchemists couldn''t devour two Heavenly mes.


    ''''Master Xiao Ming, it''s dangerous for you to devour two Heavenly mes".


    "It''s something different." Xiao Ming shook his head and didn''t exin too much.


    "You don''t have to worry about me exploding and dying and not being able to help you refine the pill, I haven''t lived long enough."


    Being exposed by Xiao Ming, Hai Bodong smiled embarrassedly.


    "Master Xiao Ming is joking, since Master wants to devour Heavenly me first, thene with me." When Hai Bodong finished speaking, he walked towards the side door.


    Xiao Ming told Zi Yan and the other girls a few words, since their retreat to devour the Heavenly me might take a very long time, Xiao Ming had made arrangements for Zi Yan and the other girls a long time ago, now he was just repeating a little to them.


    Seeing that Zi Yan and the other girls had everything clear, Xiao Ming carried the green lotus and followed behind Hai BoDong.


    Entering through the side door, a corridor appeared, the light in the corridor was slightly dim, he followed Hai Bodong for a distance, then stopped outside a stone room at the back of the corridor.


    As he pushed the door of the room, a faint light shone. Inside the room, perhaps due to frequent cleaning, it looked quite clean and tidy, and there was nothing wrong with using it as a ce to devour the Heavenly me.


    "Little brother, is this ce okay?" Hai Bodong asked with a smile, and after seeing Xiao Ming nod, then continued, "Since that''s the case, then you can retreat here, little brother, during this time, you''ll get the peaceful atmosphere you need, and absolutely no one will disturb you."


    "Mm." Nodding with a smile, Xiao Ming looked at Hai Bodong who was leaving, and softly closed the door to the room, then examined the chamber with his soul power to make sure there was no danger before walking to the center futon with the Green Lotus in hand and sitting down.
