As long as it can provide him with a Naihe fish.
Let alone one condition.
Even ten, he wouldn't refuse.
The woman raised her hand.
A golden fish scale flew towards Chen Nan.
The woman spoke, "I don't yet know what you can do for me. Keep this scale with you."
"If there comes a time when I need it, I will send word."
"Alright!" Chen Nan took the scale and put it into his storage artifact.
No matter what conditions the other party proposed in the future,
He would do it without hesitation.
The woman said softly, "Someone, bring An Sheng out!"
"Yes!"
The next moment.
A middle-aged man, bound and gagged, was brought out by shrimp soldiers and crab generals.
He looked at the woman in terror, "Princess, I was wrong, I was wrong, I am willing to accept punishment, please don't hand me over to this human, I don't want to be refined into a pill!"
The woman didn't listen to him. She pointed with one hand.
A golden light entered the middle-aged man's forehead.
In an instant.
The middle-aged man revealed his true form.
It was a golden carp more than a meter long.
"Young Master can begin refining the pills!" The woman waved her hand, and the golden Naihe fish flew towards Chen Nan by the shore.
She, along with the shrimp soldiers and crab generals, disappeared into the vast Naihe river.
Only after the shrimp soldiers and crab generals had vanished.
Lu Qingqing finally let out a terrified sound, "I didn't expect the legend to be true, that there are terrifying beings living in the Naihe River!"
Snake Mountain was not far from the Naihe River.
They had naturally heard some ancient legends.
However.
They hadn't expected the legends to be true.
Chen Nan didn't have the mind to inquire about the legends of the Naihe River.
The top priority.
Was for him to refine the pills.
After all, there were still twenty days left until the three-month deadline.
He had to refine the Sheng Sheng Zao Hua Pill within these last twenty days.
And deliver it to Hundred Flower Valley.
Otherwise, everything he had done so far would become meaningless.
"Young Master Chen, this place is noisy and not suitable for refining pills. If you don't mind, why don't you return to Snake Mountain with us!" Lu Bailing invited warmly.
Although Naihe fish died once out of water, this place was very close to Snake Mountain.
With the vitality of the Naihe fish, it could completely last until Snake Mountain.
Chen Nan did not refuse Lu Bailing's invitation.
Snake Mountain was quiet.
There, he could calm his mind and refine the Sheng Sheng Zao Hua Pill.
------
On Snake Mountain.
Chen Nan sat cross-legged.
The alchemy furnace floated in front of him.
He took a deep breath.
Trying his best to calm his emotions.
The fire elemental law surged out.
A ball of flame enveloped the alchemy furnace.
It instantly turned dark red.
Then, amidst the screams of the Naihe fish, he threw it into the alchemy furnace.
He was very serious.
Very engrossed.
Truly achieving a state of pure focus.
Although he only had one chance to refine the Sheng Sheng Zao Hua Pill.
But he was Chen Nan.
He came from the mortal world.
He was the Lord of the Immortal Realm.
He possessed psychological resilience beyond that of ordinary people.
He did not become nervous or fearful because the life of Du Yuan depended on this pill.
And was unable to fully dedicate himself to alchemy.
Watching Chen Nan diligently refine the pills.
Lu Bailing and Lu Qingqing, the sisters, were mesmerized.
They say a man who is serious is the most handsome.
This saying is not absolute.
Chen Nan was very handsome even on normal days...
"Sister, I like him so much, I want to cultivate with him!" Lu Qingqing transmitted her thoughts.
A flicker of surprise flashed in Lu Bailing's eyes, followed by a sigh, "Qingqing, mortals and demons are of different paths!"
Lu Qingqing: "Different paths lead to the same destination, you said that."
Lu Bailing shook her head helplessly, "You know, I said that to test him."
"I know Sister said that to test him, but I feel what Sister said makes a lot of sense." Lu Qingqing revealed a playful smile, "Besides, Young Master Chen is right, all beings are equal."
"If that's the case, why should we care about racial divisions?"
"And even if it was to test him, he still agreed to stay with us sisters for ten days."
"This shows he has good feelings towards us."
Lu Bailing: "Mortals and demons are of different paths. If you truly cultivate with him."
"It will definitely violate the laws of the underworld, and at that time, underworld officials will come to claim your life."
Lu Qingqing: "If I can experience love, why should I fear even the coming of underworld officials?"
"We have lived for an immeasurable amount of time."
"Now that we have finally cultivated into human form."
"We should enjoy human emotions and desires like normal people."
"Only in this way can we not let down our cultivation into human form."
Lu Bailing remained silent for a long time.
She hadn't expected her mischievous sister to say something so sensible.
Yes!
Wasn't the purpose of demon cultivation to become human?
Wasn't it to have emotions and desires like humans?
After coming back to her senses, she whispered, "Although I don't want to cultivate with Young Master Chen, since my sister is insistent, how can I, as an elder sister, let you face the pursuit of underworld officials alone?"
"Let us sisters share the hardships together!"
"Shameful!" Lu Qingqing stuck out her pink tongue, "Sister actually wants to cultivate with Young Master Chen too, she just doesn't dare to admit it!"
Lu Bailing's face turned red, "If you keep saying this, Sister will ignore you from now on!"
------
The Di Ting, who had been sleeping nearby, slowly opened its eyes.
Its gaze towards Chen Nan now held a trace of helplessness.
This fellow truly had a propensity for romance.
He had actually fallen into the scheme of a pair of snake demons.
Yes.
It could hear the truest thoughts in people's hearts.
Even the soul transmissions between Lu Bailing and Lu Qingqing did not escape its ears.
Time slowly passed.
In the blink of an eye, ten days had gone by.
The sky was originally clear and vast.
Suddenly, a terrifying cold wind swept across the heavens and the earth.
A thundercloud appeared deep in the firmament, emanating a powerful sense of oppression.
Lightning bolts could be clearly seen flashing within the thundercloud.
Guo Yu exclaimed excitedly, "The spiritual pill's birth will trigger a heavenly tribulation. As long as the heavenly tribulation is overcome, Brother's Sheng Sheng Zao Hua Pill will be successfully refined!"
Lu Bailing and Lu Qingqing, the sisters, were also filled with excitement.
This man was truly powerful.
He could even refine such a complex pill.
"Time is money!"
"I won't wait for the heavenly lightning to descend!"
A cold glint flashed in Chen Nan's eyes. He raised the alchemy furnace with one hand.
To everyone's disbelief, he soared into the sky.
He directly entered the thundercloud.
Lu Qingqing's scalp tingled, and a green snake tail appeared behind her in fear, "Madman, madman, he's a madman!"
"How could he directly enter the thundercloud?"
"Isn't he afraid of his soul being scattered?"
Lu Bailing's face was also pale.
When cultivators reach the peak of the Body Seizing Realm, they will trigger a lightning tribulation.
Only by overcoming the lightning tribulation can they break through the limitations.
However, the survival rate is only one in a thousand.
This shows how dangerous the tribulation is.
And now.
Chen Nan, who was only at the eighth level of the Form Transformation Realm, was charging into the thundercloud.
What was the difference between this and seeking death?
Before the sisters could even recover their senses, Chen Nan exclaimed, "So much Thunder Spirit Liquid."
"Sister Bailing, Sister Qingqing, come quickly, come!"
"Let's all bathe in the Thunder Spirit Liquid!"
As he spoke,
A white robe slowly drifted down from the sky...
