Diagonally opposite Yuelai Inn is Gaosheng Inn.
It's also a three-story building, and it also combines dining and lodging.
On the third floor of the Gaosheng Inn, a window in a room was opened, and Zhuge Zhengwo, Emotionless, Shangguan Haitang, Zhang Wuji were looking down in the direction Ling Yi had left.
However, the whereabouts of Ren Woxing, Dongfang Bubai, and others are unknown.
But I imagine it should be nearby, not too far.
"Mr. Zhuge, shall we do nothing?" Zhang Wuji asked.
"Let's wait and see," Zhuge Zhengwo said with a deep gaze.
"What if Ling Yi really manages to obtain the Innate Pill?"
"As long as it doesn't fall into the hands of the Tianxia Society, it's fine."
He paused, then added, "I only hope that Ling Yi doesn't go down the wrong path; otherwise, he might add many variables and disasters to this turbulent Jianghu of martial arts."
Upon hearing Zhuge Zhengwo's words, the group couldn't help but frown.
They were already aware of Ling Yi's strangeness and power.
Yesterday at the Yuelai Inn, they witnessed Yaoyue attacking Ling Yi dozens of times without sustaining any injuries.
Even the Yaoyue couldn't harm Ling Yi, which was truly unexpected for them.
With this method, coupled with Ling Yi's assassins who can Summon and Self-Destruct at any time, although they are not Martial Practitioner, their strength is already no weaker than that of Grandmaster.
Once Ling Yi's figure had gradually disappeared, Zhuge Zhengwo said, "Let's go, let's see how Ling Yi plans to climb the mountain and retrieve the Innate Pill."
With that, he jumped out of the window, and the others immediately followed.
Not only Zhuge Zhengwo and his group, but also many others followed Ling Yi's direction.
Ling Yi was naturally unaware of these things; he was just an ordinary person and couldn't Perception those Gao Lai skilled masters who moved with incredible speed.
However, there are also some speculations.
Yesterday, Yaoyue had already informed Ling Yi that Zhuge Zhengwo and the others had arrived in Dengfeng Commandery and were secretly watching Ling Yi.
Ling Yi didn't care at all.
He was actually hoping those people in the shadows would attack him, so he could boost his Summon count.
Unfortunately, no one made a move against Ling Yi even after they reached the foot of Mount Song.
This left Ling Yi Xiaoxiao disappointed.
Looking at the seemingly endless mountain path and stone steps ahead, Ling Yi's lips twitched slightly.
Climbing mountains is actually a very scary thing.
Especially for an ordinary person.
In his previous life, Ling Yi climbed Mount Tai, but he was crippled before even reaching the halfway point.
It was carried down Mount Tai by firefighters.
From then on, Ling Yi developed a psychological aversion to mountain climbing.
At this moment, Ling Yi became even more determined to improve his physique and cultivate martial arts.
Otherwise, even if he has Infinite Summoning assassins, he himself is still a piece of trash.
By the way, if we have our own trusted lieutenants, why do we need to climb the mountain ourselves?
With a thought, the middle-aged man following behind Ling Yi was instantly split in two.
Beside the middle-aged man, another muscular man dressed in coarse linen clothes appeared.
The two assassins did not look alike; the man who was separated had a slightly longer face.
Each Summon assassin has a random appearance and even a random gender.
It's not surprising that the two assassins look different.
It wasn't that the assassins could Clone Technique, but rather that Ling Yi altered the number of superposition states.
Both are suicide squads, each consisting of 5000 members.
"Go, make a simple sedan chair and carry me up the mountain," Ling Yi ordered the assassins.
Upon hearing the order, the two assassins turned and ran into the nearby Lin Zhong.
They smashed two trees with Shitou and then wove a very rough cushion out of vines and branches.
Then I used vines to secure both ends.
A poorly made stretcher was thus produced.
The whole process took about an hour.
Ling Yi was speechless for a moment.
Without a doubt, if these suicide soldiers didn't have the Self-Destruct attribute, their Combat would be so trashy it's embarrassing to watch.
To Ling Yi's surprise, the stretcher, though crudely made, was surprisingly comfortable to sit on.
It can sit, and even lie down, and it's quite sturdy.
"Climb the mountain!" Ling Yi ordered the two assassins after testing the comfort level.
Two assassins carried Ling Yi uphill. Their speed was not as fast as that of Martial Arts Expert, but it was much faster than that of ordinary people.
However, after climbing the mountain for half an hour, they didn't see a single person.
It wasn't until we reached a fork in the road that we saw two groups of people, and two archways.
The left archway reads "Shaolin Temple," while the right archway reads "Mount Song Sect."
Both archways are carved from massive stones, and even their styles and the characters on them are exactly the same.
As expected of two sects from the same Mount Song, and as expected of two traitorous sects that have both sided with the Tianxia Society.
To say that the two sects are unrelated is something even a ghost wouldn't believe.
On the Shaolin Sect side, there were over Wu Bai bald men, led by an elderly monk who appeared to be quite old and wore a red kasaya.
They all had the air of sanctimonious, enlightened monks.
The group on the right were all dressed in short black shirts, while the leaders were all wearing long black robes.
They were all wielding swords and knives, and they all looked very formidable.
Ling Yi couldn't discern their strength, but it didn't matter; once the mushroom cloud appeared, they would all be treated equally.
"Amitabha Buddha, Benefactor Ling, our Shaolin is currently facing many inconveniences and is not in a position to receive guests. Please descend the mountain!"
The leading old monk chanted a Buddhist prayer and looked intently at Ling Yi.
Ling Yi raised an eyebrow. It seemed these monks knew something about him!
But that's not surprising, since Dengfeng Commandery is located at the foot of Mount Song. How could Mount Song not have spies from Shaolin?
"Let me go down the mountain, just hand over the Innate Pill, and I'll leave immediately."
"Good!"
To Ling Yi's surprise, the old monk took out a porcelain bottle and threw it to Ling Yi.
Under the old monk's precise control of his True Yuan, the porcelain bottle landed precisely in Ling Yi's hands.
Ling Yi paused for a moment, then opened the porcelain bottle and looked inside.
Instantly, an extremely rich medicinal fragrance wafted out, refreshing the mind and body.
Ling Yi poured out the pills inside.
This is a pill about the size of a glass marble, entirely white, with a smooth surface and Yinyin halo of light flowing around it.
It looks like it's not simple at all.
Ling Yi threw it directly into his mouth, a scene that left everyone around him dumbfounded.
Ling Yi actually just ate the pill like that?
Don't they even bother to tell if it's real or fake?
Aren't you worried that this elixir might be poisonous?
The old monk who threw the pill to Ling Yi had a hint of disdain in his eyes.
His previously slightly tense expression completely relaxed.
Ling Yi chewed the pill a couple of times and found it tasted quite good.
After swallowing the pill, Ling Yi could clearly feel a cool energy suddenly arising within his body.
This energy originated from his lower abdomen and quickly spread to his internal organs, limbs, and meridians, making Ling Yi feel incredibly comfortable, as if his body had become lighter.
This overjoyed Ling Yi. Could this really be Innate Pill?
But the next moment, a series of ringing sounds rang in my mind.
[Ding, 50 assassins have died, 50 assassins can Summon, current Summon number of assassins: 11753!]
[Ding, 17 assassins have died, 17 assassins can Summon, current Summon number of assassins: 11770!]
[Ding, 30 assassins have died, 30 assassins can Summon, current Summon number of assassins: 11800!]
[Ding, 100 assassins have died, 100 assassins can Summon, current Summon number of assassins is 11900!]
[Ding, 800 assassins have died, 800 assassins can Summon, current Summon number of assassins is 22100!]
The ringing continued, and Ling Yi was first startled, then overjoyed.
This Innate Pill is clearly fake, and it's an extremely potent poison.
What does it mean that, instead of only losing a dozen or so soldiers at the beginning, they are now losing nearly a thousand per second?
This means that even Master, or even Grandmaster, cannot withstand this poison.
That old monk is truly ruthless!
While quickly Summon assassins to replenish their losses, Ling Yi looked at the old monk with a face full of surprise.
This led Ling Yi to discover another way to increase the number of assassins Summon.
Eat poison.
When the number of Summon assassins reached over 70,000, the beeping finally stopped.
This delighted Ling Yi.
If we took a hundred or eighty of these poison pills every day, wouldn't we be able to take off very quickly?
"Bald monk, do you have any more poison? Give me a few more!"
"This is impossible! How could you be alright?" The old monk's face was filled with disbelief.
"Nonsense! Do you really think I'm stupid? If I didn't have absolute certainty, would I dare to take any pills given to me by someone else?"
The old monk took a deep breath; being old and shrewd, he quickly calmed down and said, "Amitabha, Benefactor Ling, the Innate Pill has been given to you. Please keep your promise and leave the mountain."
Ling Yi's expression instantly turned cold. "You're really asking for it! I'll give you one last chance. Laozi over the Innate Pill, or this Mount Song will be gone today."
"A monk does not lie, so why are you being so aggressive, Benefactor Ling..."
"What the hell did you buy?!" Ling Yi wasn't here to negotiate with the old monk or to have a debate.
He doesn't have that kind of free time.
If the old monk had given him the Innate Pill, Ling Yi might have let Mount Song off the hook. But since the old monk lacked martial ethics and resorted to underhanded tactics, Ling Yi shouldn't blame him for being ruthless.
Ling Yi raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the bald man.
The next moment, a Shaking Heaven and Earth roar resounded.
A crimson mushroom cloud of blood mist rose dozens of meters into the air.
When the mushrooms disappeared, a large crater tens of meters deep and more than twenty meters in diameter was blasted out of the steps behind them.
Within the area of the massive pit, apart from the ground covered in crimson Masai, no one survived.
With a single strike, he wiped out dozens of bald men from the Shaolin side.
Everyone was terrified by the power of Ling Yi's finger strike.
This is one of the attack methods Ling Yi came up with: Zero-Frame Summon, Zero-Frame Stacking, and Zero-Frame Detonation.
It gave the impression that the attack was unleashed by Ling Yi with a single finger.
Ling Yi pointed at the old monk and asked mockingly, "Bald monk, are you going to hand it over or not?"
