His purpose this time was not to gain benefits, his Ying Wu Hou did not lack treasures, his goal this time was to regain his face.
In only half a day's time, the Ying Wu Hou had already sent a challenge to Chang Sheng, and the news of him fighting with Chang Sheng for pill refining had already spread throughout the entire capital.
Fang Shuwen heard the news from the palace, he immediately left and rushed to the Prime Minister's Estate.
"Chang Sheng, I heard that the Ying Wu Hou is looking for someone to compete with you in pill refining. However, I am actually quite curious. Given Ying Wu Hou's character, he would never intervene if he wasn't absolutely confident in winning. I wonder who it is that has actually given him so much confidence this time! " Fang Shuwen sat in the room and supported his chin with one hand as he analyzed the situation.
Chang Sheng looked at Fang Shuwen's serious expression and suddenly laughed: "Of course he's confident, because the person he's looking for this time is me, or more specifically, my External Body."
"External Body? You mean Shi Fa? " Hearing that, Fang Shuwen immediately understood, but immediately, his face became suspicious again: No, Chang Sheng, you are competing with your External Body at the same time, you cannot control your External Body, how do you want to concoct pills with your External Body?
"Who said that if I don't control the External Body, my External Body will not be able to concoct pills?" Chang Sheng looked at Fang Shuwen with a look of despise, as if he was a fool looking at him, "Please, my External Body is thoughtful. Only when I deliberately control him does he lose his mind, but when I do not control him, he does many things on his own. The simplest part is that I am not controlling him at all times. However, he also knows that he cultivates by himself. "
"I already know what kind of pills I will be cultivating when the time comes, I'll wait until the pill refining competition, then I'll teach him how to refine it with the help of my spirit, anyway, to a certain extent, my External Body and I will understand each other, as long as I'm willing to teach him what I know, he'll be able to do the same as me, so he doesn't need to concoct pills in advance."
Chang Sheng explained his plan to Fang Shuwen, but after thinking about it, he added on after: "Oh right, if there is any outer bet this time, do not bet that I will win when you bet. This time, it will be my External Body."
"What?" Your External Body wins? " Hearing Chang Sheng's words, Fang Shuwen was obviously stunned, and even Guo Feng who had been silent the entire time revealed a questioning expression.
"Of course, it's not like I can't afford to lose Ying Wu Hou, as losing would affect my reputation greatly. In the eyes of others, I'm just a fool, it's normal for me to lose, it's not normal for me to always win. Moreover, only by letting my External Body win would I be able to obtain more benefits in the future. "
"I understand now …" Fang Shuwen immediately understood.
After Fang Shuwen understood the situation, he immediately left for the Palace. He had to hurry and cultivate, last time, although he had absorbed the immortal qi from the Chaos Egg, his strength had increased greatly, and he broke through the Qi Disciple Level 5 in a short while. However, Guo Feng, who had broken through to Qi Disciple level 9 at that time, had already broke through to Qi Disciple level 9 in just a few days.
Also, a few days ago, when they faced that danger within the Absolute Pill Sect, he basically did not help much, and as for Guo Feng, other than his high strength, his《 The Secret Art of Hidden》 had also helped Chang Sheng a lot. If not for Guo Feng and《 The Secret Art》, they would have all died there.
If he didn't work hard, this gap would only grow bigger and bigger. This time, he didn't even see her. It was said that she had gone into seclusion again.
That night, after Chang Sheng had finished cultivating, by means of his special mental connection with the External Body, he taught himself the method to refine the True Profound without Longevity Dan, and then instructed the External Body to leave with the Ying Wu Hou tomorrow. Only then did he close his eyes and begin resting.
The next day.
In the plaza outside the Zhao Xiangyang Merchant Guild's headquarters, it was not even noon yet, but the plaza had already been filled with people.
In the center of the square, there were already two pill furnaces. Next to each pill furnace was a square table that was filled with all sorts of herbs that emitted dense spiritual energy.
"So many medicinal ingredients, this... These are all the ingredients from the Fourth Rank! "
"Not only are there Fourth Rank medicinal ingredients, there are also Fifth Rank medicinal ingredients. Heavens, there are actually so many high grade medicinal ingredients."
The crowd, who came to watch the competition, stared at the medicinal herbs on the two tables with their mouths wide open in shock.
"So many medicinal herbs, and all of them are high-tier medicinal herbs! What kind of pill is he going to refine for him to require so many medicinal herbs?" Is this still a competition for pill forging? "
"Ying Wu Hou is indeed extraordinary. However, with so many medicinal ingredients placed in the middle of the plaza, with only a few guards watching, it is likely that only Ying Wu Hou would have the guts to do such a thing. "
"Hmph, who dares to not open their eyes and snatch something from the Ying Wu Hou! Didn't the heaven-defying person from last time want to kill Ying Wu Hou and get refined to death by him?! "
In the center of the square, the crowd was looking at the medicinal herbs on the two square tables. In other places, in the midst of the crowd, shouts could be heard everywhere.
"The stage is open, the stage is open! The odds of Chang Sheng and the finding a genius to refine pills is 1: 1."
"A payout of 1: 1. Both of them have the same payout."
"How can the odds be set so high?" Furthermore, looking at the other betting bets, the odds that Chang Sheng will get the same amount of money as the other party, is truly strange. "
"There's nothing to be surprised about. Chang Sheng and the people that the Ying Wu Hou had called over were competing in pill refining. There's no need to talk about Chang Sheng, last time, Chang Sheng won against the Absolute Pill Sect Master, and even beat Ying Wu Hou once. As for the Ying Wu Hou, although he already knew Chang Sheng's pill refining level, he still made a challenge. It seemed that the Ying Wu Hou had come prepared this time. So in the end, who could win? It's hard to say who will have the highest chance of victory. "
"It is hard to say, but I still believe that Ying Wu Hou will win. After all, if I am not confident, Ying Wu Hou will not take the initiative to send a challenge."
"That's not necessarily true. Although Chang Sheng is a fool, he has won over many alchemy experts in a row. Who knows, the person Ying Wu Hou might even lose to Chang Sheng this time."
"The key is still to see who the Ying Wu Hou is looking for!"
Just as everyone was discussing with one another, a ruckus suddenly sounded from a kick on the plaza.
"They're here, they're here. Look at the Ying Wu Hou, Seventh Prince, Chang Sheng and the others, they've actually appeared at the same time."
With a kick on the plaza, Chang Sheng, Ying Wu Hou, and a few others appeared on the plaza almost at the same time.
Seeing the two protagonists appear, everyone on the square consciously made way for them, allowing the two sides to look at each other without obstructing each other.
"That... That child is Shi Fa? "
"He is Shi Fa?"
On Ying Wu Hou's side, other than the guards, there was only Ying Wu Hou and another child. Everyone noticed the child at a glance.
"So he's actually that monstrous genius child from the legends. He's indeed young enough, but he's actually an expert of the seventh floor of the Qi Training Stage at such a young age. No matter what, it's hard to believe."
"Even if he doesn't believe, he has to. This child is an expert of the seventh level of Qi Training Stage, and is publicly acknowledged to be one of the strongest clans in the capital. Not only that, this child is also an alchemist master."
"Alchemy master, right, this child is indeed an alchemist master, it is said that Chang Sheng and he are even from the same sect, do you guys think that the Ying Wu Hou would be looking for him?" Some people suddenly thought of the pill refining competition that was going to take place next.
"You want Shi Fa to compete with Chang Sheng in pill refining? That's not possible, isn't it? Isn't it like cheering on the same bed now? "
"Why would it be impossible? Didn't also compete with Dan Yinzi and Danyan before?"
There are so many people in the Absolute Pill Sect, so it's understandable for them to fight with each other with different strengths. Furthermore, Dan Chenzi has already been expelled from the Absolute Pill Sect. Look at Dan Yin Yan and Dan Yinzi who haven't been expelled from Absolute Pill Sect, there's no competition between them. "
"But if the Ying Wu Hou did not want Shi Fa to compete in pill refining, why did he bring Shi Fa here?"
The moment Chang Sheng's External Body and Ying Wu Hou appeared, especially his External Body, instantly attracted everyone's attention.
Chang Sheng looked at his External Body, and swept his gaze across the crowd with the corner of his eyes.
Zhang Qin, who was disguised as a man, Ying Wu Hou's sister Kou Ziyao, Third Prince, Zhuge Zhan, and many others whom she had met before in the Heavencraft Tower had also appeared in the vicinity of the inn along with the people who came to cooperate with him after she had appeared in the External Body.
Smiling in his heart, Chang Sheng suddenly used his mind to contact his own External Body, and immediately ordered: "Come over here, greet me well.
Receiving Chang Sheng's orders, the External Body immediately left Ying Wu Hou's side and quickly walked to Chang Sheng, then respectfully saluted: "Greetings, Martial Uncle!" His actions were very respectful, but his voice and face carried a deep sense of disdain.
"Hehe …" Martial Nephew. "
Chang Sheng deliberately pretended to be pleasantly surprised, extending both of his hands to the External Body in front of him: "Junior Master, Chang Sheng wants to eat candy, Chang Sheng wants to eat candy!"
"Idiot!" External Body snorted, called the Martial Uncle, ignored Chang Sheng, and turned to walk towards him.
The Ying Wu Hou stood in place, watching the Martial Uncle Nephew's short conversation, the corner of his mouth slightly twitched. Shi Fa looked down on this foolish Martial Uncle of his even more than he had imagined, and actually called him an idiot in front of everyone. But even so, when he saw Chang Sheng, he still had to respectfully bow and greet him. From this, it could be seen that although Shi Fa was lawless, he still cared a lot about his sect rules and his elders.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have showed disdain on his face and would have acted respectfully in front of his Martial Uncle, Chang Sheng.
