What kind of strange son does Ren Tianxing have? What is he thinking in his head!

Then, the Smiling Old Man thought of Ren Jie's previous performance. Thinking about it, he had never been normal, so he simply stopped talking and directly grabbed Ren Jie.

Ren Jie wasn't unfamiliar with this, allowing the Smiling Old Man to grab him and leave his residence. Subsequently, Ren Jie once again fell into that half-asleep, half-awake state. When he woke up again and opened his eyes, he found that they were in a wild forest.

Forest. As soon as he saw the forest, Ren Jie immediately thought of the Primeval Forest where Sixth Uncle was, but after taking a closer look, he realized that this wasn't Sixth Uncle's place. Because the forest there was easily recognizable. Obviously, this should be a forest outside Jade Capital City.

Moreover, Ren Jie's divine sense instantly probed the surroundings. Now, his divine sense could probe a range of fifty meters around him. Just within those fifty meters, Ren Jie had already discovered the problem. Among the big trees, there were many small trees that had some influence and interference on his divine sense. This was…

A formation!

And not a formation set up by humans. This kind of interference with divine sense was also very peculiar, it seemed to be…

Ren Jie immediately thought of something he had seen in the Library Pavilion, the Bewitching Demon Monkey. The Bewitching Demon Monkey was a Level 3 Initial Stage demon beast, which was equivalent to the seventh or eighth level of the human Body Refining Realm. It was only the size of a palm, and its individual attack power wasn't strong, but it lived in groups. They had a natural divine ability that allowed them to change the surrounding environment in the place where they lived, forming a unique Bewitching Formation. Moreover, they could also affect divine sense. Most importantly, the more Bewitching Demon Monkeys there were, the more powerful the formation they could set up, and the greater the influence.

There was once a legend that if the number of Bewitching Demon Monkeys exceeded one thousand, even a Level 6 Late Stage demon beast, or several True Qi Realm Great Perfection experts who understood formations, would only find death if they entered.

"Get out of here before dawn, or you'll be punished with ten spanks. Alright, get lost…" The Smiling Old Man put Ren Jie down and directly raised his foot to kick him in the butt, sending him in.

"Wait!" Ren Jie suddenly turned around, stopping the Smiling Old Man's action.

"Wait for what? I'm in charge here." The Smiling Old Man was stunned, then he thought of the last time he was fortunate. When he saw Ren Jie staring blankly at the forest, he thought to himself, couldn't be that heaven-defying, could he? That he even has a way to see through this.

Although this Bewitching Demon Monkey wasn't very strong, it lived in groups, and it wasn't easy to find, let alone catch. He had spent a lot of effort to catch them, and he had specially waited a few days to confine these Bewitching Demon Monkeys, letting them transform this place to be suitable for this kid's use.

"It's nothing. Didn't you say that this was a piece of junk? I just want you to take a look and witness the moment of miracle." Ren Jie suddenly thought of something a magician liked to say in his previous life and blurted it out.

"What moment of witnessing a miracle?" The Smiling Old Man was a little confused by Ren Jie.

"I have a way to repair this, repair it into a High-Grade Spirit Artifact, but I need you to help me with just a little bit of a small favor." Ren Jie pinched his right index finger and thumb, indicating a very, very small favor.

"You little bastard, what are you talking about with me? Hurry up and go in. If you delay and can't get out, this king won't indulge you…" The Smiling Old Man almost laughed when he heard that he had a way to repair this High-Grade Spirit Artifact that had been refined into junk. This was more difficult than refining a Top-Grade Spirit Artifact. Even a Top-Tier Spirit Artifact Refiner who could refine Top-Grade Spirit Artifacts would find it difficult to repair this kind of junk. This was ten times more difficult than refining it again.

So, the Smiling Old Man was preparing to throw Ren Jie in again, not planning to discuss this topic with him at all.

"This is too simple, a trick for three-year-olds. I can get out of it in less than a quarter of an hour. Let's…" Ren Jie turned his head and glanced at the forest behind him, which was obviously painstakingly arranged by the Smiling Old Man, and said with disdain.

It was impossible for there to be Bewitching Demon Monkeys near Jade Capital City. This could only mean that the Smiling Old Man had caught them himself and had to trap the Bewitching Demon Monkeys. Letting them feel the danger, they temporarily built a place to protect themselves here, which was also their nest, so that such a place could be formed.

Anyone would be angry if they had spent so much effort doing these things and were told that it was worthless, let alone the Smiling Old Man's temper.

"What did you say?" Sure enough, the Smiling Old Man immediately exploded when he heard Ren Jie's words. He approached Ren Jie with a smile on his face: "You dare to say that what this king arranged is a trick for three-year-olds? How dare you say that what this king arranged is a trick for three-year-olds?"

"Uh…" Seeing that the effect had been achieved, Ren Jie shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "How about we make a bet? If I have a way to get out of it within a quarter of an hour, then tonight you have to do everything I say and cooperate with me to repair this High-Grade Spirit Artifact."

A quarter of an hour?

Although the Smiling Old Man was wearing a smiling face mask, even through the mask, one could feel his despised anger and rage.

At first, he just wanted to get three or five Bewitching Demon Monkeys, but then he thought of the scene where Ren Jie learned the Battle Eight Directions Annihilation in one night, and he felt that this kid was a bit strange. No, I can stare at him, as long as I don't kill him, but I definitely can't let this kid be so arrogant in front of this king again. Thinking of his comments on the name Battle Eight Directions Annihilation, and the scene where he learned it in one night, the Smiling Old Man became angry. Later, he simply used fifty Bewitching Demon Monkeys to transform the environment here.

Making the Bewitching Formation here enough to prevent even an ordinary Intermediate Formation Master from getting out. Even if this kid understood formations, he wouldn't be able to get out of here. Now, this Bewitching Formation was enough to make an Intermediate Formation Master helpless, and it was enough to trap a True Qi Realm Third Level expert. This kid actually wanted to get out in a quarter of an hour, who did he think he was?

Also, even if he came out, repairing a High-Grade Spirit Artifact, what a joke. Although Ren Jie's performance that day was a bit unexpected and surprising, he believed that he had now completely controlled and seen through this kid, and didn't believe he could do anything.

"Seeing your expression, I know you can't stand people like me provoking you. If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your default, and I'll go in." Ren Jie said, pointing to the forest behind him, meaning, are you betting or not? I'm going in.

"Don't try to provoke this king, get in…" The Smiling Old Man said, raising his foot to kick, but this time Ren Jie had already rushed in before he finished speaking.

If it wasn't because the video in his sea of consciousness needed energy to absorb the Spirit Qi in the Spirit Jade worth nearly three million Jade Coins, and Ren Jie's body happened to be constantly running the Jade Emperor Art, allowing his body to absorb some of it, achieving the effect that Ren Jie would normally have after cultivating for about five days, Ren Jie wouldn't dare to try it now. In fact, if three million Jade Coins only allowed a Body Refining Realm expert to speed up their cultivation by five days, if it wasn't for Ren Jie using Spirit Qi in other places and his body's cultivation was a side benefit, this kind of cultivation speed-up method would go bankrupt even if the royal family used it for a short time.

It was precisely because of this that this was only a near-legendary cultivation method. Although he was only at the fourth level of the Body Refining Realm, the changes brought about by cultivating the Jade Emperor Art made Ren Jie's Qi Strength and body strength comparable to the ninth level. Although most of the Qi Strength in his body was now condensed into Qi Strength Rings to form a formation and refine his body with Qi, Ren Jie had a lot of confidence in rushing in.

If it were a few days ago, or even the first day he met the Smiling Old Man, Ren Jie wouldn't have been so confident. Because at that time, the formations he could see through were at most limited to the level of an Intermediate Formation Master, but now he was confident that he could see through the formations of an Advanced Formation Master, and he had already seen through the Bewitching Formation set up by these fifty Bewitching Demon Monkeys at a glance.

In his divine sense, the Bewitching Demon Monkeys hiding there were also clearly visible.

"Swoosh!" Without a sound, without any noise, as soon as Ren Jie entered, the branches next to him shook gently, and a mass of black shadows silently grabbed towards the back of his head from behind.

"Bang!" Ren Jie swung his fist and turned his head back with a punch. Just like hitting a fast-approaching ball, a Bewitching Demon Monkey was directly knocked out. These Bewitching Demon Monkeys liked to trap their prey and dig out their brains to eat. Although they looked small and cute, you wouldn't have any love for them when you thought that they wanted to dig out your head to eat.

Ren Jie's speed was fast and accurate, and the Bewitching Demon Monkey was directly killed.

"Squeak, squeak…" Suddenly, there was a burst of cries. Obviously, the death of this probing Bewitching Demon Monkey had alerted the other Bewitching Demon Monkeys, and they quickly changed. The surrounding formation was changing, and one could feel a unique divine sense that was affecting and interfering with his own divine sense.

Even if an ordinary True Qi Realm Fifth Level expert came here, their divine sense would be interfered with and lose direction. But Ren Jie's realm had improved again at this moment, and these had no effect on him at all. He had quickly rushed in.

Originally, when he saw that the probing Bewitching Demon Monkey was killed by Ren Jie, and then the Bewitching Demon Monkeys changed, a hint of playful smile appeared in the Smiling Old Man's eyes, waiting for this kid to be abused. The Bewitching Demon Monkey was the smartest kind of demon beast among the low-level demon beasts, and it was the kind that became smarter the larger the group was. Next was the real…

How is this possible?

The Smiling Old Man's smile hadn't lasted more than a few seconds before it vanished. He stared wide-eyed ahead. With his cultivation realm, these formations were as good as nonexistent to him; he could see any movement inside with a single glance.

That was why he was so shocked, because Ren Jie was actually ambushing those Bewitching Demon Monkeys. How could he possibly be more familiar with the Bewitching Formation than the monkeys themselves?

What did he do? The Bewitching Demon Monkeys' Bewitching Formation had been altered. How was that possible? Could he also be a Formation Master? Impossible. Even a high-level Formation Master couldn't casually alter a formation to the point of making the Bewitching Demon Monkeys lose their footing.

"He grandpa'd an egg!" The Smiling Old Man grabbed a handful of his hair, feeling like he'd miscalculated again. If he'd known this would happen, he would have brought all several hundred Bewitching Demon Monkeys. But how could this kid be so skilled in formations?

"Bang..." After killing the last Bewitching Demon Monkey, Ren Jie walked out with a smile. It had taken him less than five minutes from start to finish.

Three-year-old child, three-year-old child. The Smiling Old Man's mind echoed Ren Jie's words. Looking at his smiling face, he really wanted to beat him up himself.

"Game time is over. The moment to witness a miracle has arrived..." Seeing the Smiling Old Man's shocked and even slightly frantic appearance, Ren Jie felt a little smug and secretly wanted to laugh. However, repairing the Profound Yin Sword was even more exciting for him, because he was about to take in a disciple. The disciple had directly brought such an Apprentice Ceremony gift, and would continue to prepare Spirit Jade for him. As his master, he couldn't be without a little something to show for it. Moreover, the bigger the scene tomorrow, the more enjoyable it would be. So after learning how to repair the Profound Yin Sword, Ren Jie had already decided to repair it as soon as possible and reward Chang Lao Si, his disciple.

So as soon as he came out, Ren Jie had already taken out the Jade Box sealing the Profound Yin Sword.
