Chapter 82: Chapter 82: Thunder Flower

Inspecting this woman, who hadn\'t even reached the Innate stage, Tai Xu Zi nodded after careful consideration. "Although you haven\'t reached the Innate stage yet, your aptitude is excellent. If the last piece of the Formation Spirit falls into your hands, it won\'t be wasted."

"Thank you, Elder," Ying Lan said respectfully.

"Wait, I haven\'t said I\'ll give it to you," Tai Xu Zi shook his head.

"Huh?" Ying Lan was taken aback, while Zhong Shan frowned slightly, then glanced at Bei Qing Si.

"Who is she to you?" Tai Xu Zi pointed at Zhong Shan and asked Ying Lan.

"She\'s my granddaughter," Zhong Shan immediately answered.

At Zhong Shan\'s words, Ying Lan hesitated for a moment, unsure why Zhong Shan referred to her as a granddaughter instead of a grandniece, but she quickly nodded seriously. Cooperating with Zhong Shan, she knew better than to question him.

"Granddaughter?" Tai Xu Zi looked somewhat surprised at Ying Lan, then glanced at Zhong Shan before nodding in agreement.

Tian Ling\'er, perhaps due to her straightforward nature, didn\'t notice any difference, but Bei Qing Si did, although she didn\'t understand why Zhong Shan said what he did.

"Well, since she\'s your granddaughter, there\'s no need for reservations," Tai Xu Zi nodded.

Then, Tai Xu Zi gently turned his hand, and a gray-green energy sphere suddenly appeared in his palm.

He handed it over to Ying Lan.

"Infuse it with your blood. Just a little at a time," Tai Xu Zi instructed.

"Okay," Ying Lan understood that this was a great opportunity, so she quickly cut her palm and began to infuse her blood into the energy sphere. However, it seemed that the absorption rate wasn\'t fast enough, as it could only be absorbed bit by bit.

As the gray-green energy absorbed the blood, it gradually became lighter and began to fade.

"It will take half an hour to fully integrate. You\'ll have to wait patiently," Tai Xu Zi frowned.

"Yes," Ying Lan nodded.

Turning his head, Tai Xu Zi looked at Bei Qing Si.

"Qing Si, my time is running out, and I\'m about to reach the end of my life. The signs of aging are already evident—dirty clothes, withered hair, sweating under the armpits, and a foul odor. I\'ll be dead soon. The item in this bracelet was originally meant to be passed on to the one who inherited the Formation Spirit, but now that you\'re here, it naturally belongs to my niece. Take it," Tai Xu Zi said to Bei Qing Si.

"Uncle," Bei Qing Si looked at Tai Xu Zi, a hint of sadness flashing in her eyes. This uncle she had just met, was he going to die soon?

"Hurry up," Tai Xu Zi urged.

"Yes," Bei Qing Si nodded.

Then, with a light touch of the two bracelets, the contents inside were all transferred to Bei Qing Si\'s bracelet. Bei Qing Si didn\'t examine them closely, but a trace of sorrow flashed in her eyes.

After that, Tai Xu Zi told Bei Qing Si some things about Bei Qing Feng, while Ying Lan refined the Formation Spirit.

Zhong Shan looked at Tian Ling\'er again.

"Ling\'er, what did you see just now?" Zhong Shan asked.

TianLing\'er pointed to a picture below and said, "That place, my dad and I have been there. There are two Thunder Flowers inside. My dad refused to collect them, but let\'s go back and get them now."

Zhong Shan looked at Tian Ling\'er in surprise. Tian Ling\'er seemed to be a lucky star, although she always led herself into danger, there was always a benefit afterward. It was either a treasure like the Berserk Pill formula or the Nine-Colored Dragon Silkworm, or it significantly improved his cultivation, like the second stage of the Red Phoenix Heavenly Scripture after the Ice Crow, the third stage after the Undead, or the second stage of the Heavenly Court Forging Technique and the Demon Tempering Technique after the Snake Belly.

Every time he encountered trouble, it was accompanied by a great benefit. Could there be another treasure this time?

Zhong Shan looked at the scenery there, his heart filled with uncertainty. If Tian Ling\'er said there was treasure, he needed to consider whether there might be danger.

As if sensing Zhong Shan\'s hesitation, Tian Ling\'er immediately said, "It\'s very safe there. Last time we stayed there for half a day, and not a single living creature appeared."

"Why didn\'t you take it then?" Zhong Shan asked curiously.

"My dad wouldn\'t allow it. He said it wasn\'t ripe yet and needed three more years. Now, it\'s been exactly three years," Tian Ling\'er said promptly.

Still, Zhong Shan hesitated.

"Those Thunder Flowers are essential for refining a third-grade pill and are extremely rare. Although it\'s a third-grade pill, it\'s even rarer than a fifth-grade pill," Tian Ling\'er explained.

"What kind of pill?" Zhong Shan asked strangely.

"The Ascension Pill," Tian Ling\'er said.

"What?" Zhong Shan\'s expression changed.

"The Ascension Pill," Tian Ling\'er said with a smile, as if she had anticipated Zhong Shan\'s expression.

For other pills, Zhong Shan might not have cared, but this pill had been mentioned by Tian Ling\'er and Nan Batian during their time in the Kaiyang Sect.

The Ascension Pill was similar to the Breaking Forbidden Pill. The Breaking Forbidden Pill was a pill that advanced from the acquired realm to the innate realm, while the Ascension Pill was a pill that advanced from the innate realm to the Golden Core realm.

For others, the Ascension Pill might not be very important, but for Zhong Shan, it was crucial. With his aptitude, he needed the help of pills to reach the Golden Core stage.

"Is it really safe?" Zhong Shan asked again.

"Tian Ling\'er immediately said, "Of course, there\'s nothing to worry about."

"Okay," Zhong Shan nodded, taking note.

At the same time, Zhong Shan noticed Princess Qianyou staring at the door where he was. Not good! Zhong Shan glanced at the merging process of Ying Lan, immediately feeling worried. It wasn\'t that Princess Qianyou noticed this door, but she had been focusing on it all along. When she looked at Zhong Shan, he entered, and then he didn\'t come out? Had he been found?

Just as Princess Qianyou was about to send someone to the door where Zhong Shan was, suddenly, Zhong Shan emerged from another door below. Zhong Shan appeared again? Although the other three women weren\'t seen, since Zhong Shan came out of another door, it was impossible for Tai Xuzi to be in the previous door.

Breathing a sigh of relief, Princess Qianyou looked at A\'er, who was still frowning and looking down, apparently not seeing anyone entering a door without coming out. Of course, there was also a hint of doubt about Bei Qingsi and the others, but since Zhong Shan came out of another door, the previous door was directly excluded.

Slowly, more people entered from behind, rushing towards the doors below because everyone had a rough idea.

After a while, Mr. Shuijing gently shook his feather fan and entered with Tian Sha and the guards.

"Princess, I am glad I didn\'t disappoint you," Mr. Shuijing smiled.

"You\'ve done well, sir," Princess Qianyou said.

When Tian Sha entered, he saw Princess Qianyou and the others, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. At the same time, when he looked at Mr. Shuijing, there was also admiration.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Soul of the Array is right below. I won\'t say more. It\'s up to your luck," Mr. Shuijing smiled.

"Okay," Tian Sha nodded, leading the people from Kaiyang Sect to disperse towards the doors.

After Tian Sha left, Mr. Shuijing looked at Princess Qianyou again. "Crown Prince, Princess, how is it?"

"A\'er still hasn\'t found anything," Princess Qianyou shook her head.

"Okay," Mr. Shuijing nodded. On the side, Gu Lin was anxious, afraid that someone would take the lead.

Zhong Shan\'s sudden appearance dispelled Princess Qianyou\'s doubts, but she didn\'t know that in the secluded door where Zhong Shan was, it was only Zhong Shan\'s hidden body accompanying Tian Ling\'er. The allure of the hidden body successfully deceived Princess Qianyou.

The hidden body turned and walked into another door. Not far away, two people in white clothes followed Zhong Shan\'s hidden body.

Zhong Shan entered another door and found that the environment here was completely different from the Dragon Eye where Tai Xuzi was.

Inside, there was an open space with a diameter of a hundred meters. About three hundred spirit stones were scattered on the ground. Outside the hundred-meter open space, there was white mist all around, and there were crystal walls similar to the ones before, no, crystal walls, indestructible.

But in this circular environment, besides himself entering this door, there were seven other doors, as if the eight doors of the Great Formation were arranged in all directions.

Zhong Shan knew that if he went out from the other seven doors, he would inexplicably appear within Princess Qianyou\'s line of sight.

In the hidden body\'s storage bracelet, besides the Nine Dragon Square Heaven Jade, there were also a large number of spirit stones he had taken away. Naturally, he didn\'t care about these few hundred.

Preparing to go out from another door to continue delaying Princess Qianyou, but just as Zhong Shan was about to go out, two people suddenly appeared in this peculiar environment. Moreover, according to Zhong Shan\'s first feeling, these two seemed to be specifically targeting him.

Both of them carried swords on their backs. One seemed to be a middle-aged man, standing behind him like a servant, while the other was a young man with a heroic spirit in his brows and a determined look in his eyes, very sharp.

As soon as the young man entered this door, he stared at Zhong Shan intently, and a strong sense of battle intent burst forth from his eyes.

Looking at these two strangers, Zhong Shan raised his eyebrows, his eyes showing a hint of surprise.
