Chapter 117: Forced Labor

He first handed a jade slip to Li Ming. “Fellow Daoist Li, there is no need for you to be so polite. Why don't you take a look at the formation on this jade slip first?”

After he finished speaking, he raised his head, his gaze landing on Li Fengying before he continued softly, “Why don't you put away the sound transmission talisman in your sleeve to avoid unnecessary trouble?

Li Ming could not help but praise them inwardly. With just a few words, the party of three had left the two of them completely overwhelmed.

After letting Li Fengying calm down, he gathered his courage and said, “Three seniors, you seem to have gotten the wrong information. While I did manage to refine a Cold Magnet once, it was only a third-grade Cold Magnet.”

“Fellow daoist, are you looking down on me?”

Li Ming felt his entire body tighten as if he were bound by something, making it difficult for him to move. Li Fengying stood beside him, her face turning pale white as she looked at the party of three with a gaze of utter horror.

“Alright then! I promise you!” Seeing that the situation was not to his favor, Li Ming could only grit his teeth and agree.

While Li Ming was also in the golden core realm just like the other party, they were likely to already be in the perfected level of the golden core realm.

“Hehe, you are smart. Again, you have nothing to worry about. As long as you can refine it, the three of us will definitely not take advantage of you.” The red-robed man laughed loudly as if nothing had happened.

At the same time, the pressure on Li Ming's body instantly disappeared. When Li Ming looked at the red-robed man once again, his heart turned cold.

While this fellow looked gentle and refined, he was, in fact, a ruthless man. If he failed to refine what they wanted, the consequences would definitely be horrible. The Divine Will Sect was quite far away from where he was currently at. If anything happened to them, even the sect master would not be able to save them in time.

He did not take out the jade slip, rather only taking out the black lotus seed. The jade slip did not have much meaning to him right now. It was already very fortunate that he could survive.

The three of them retreated to the side. The hook-nosed man glanced at Li Fengying, indicating for her to watch herself.

Li Ming did not waste any time. He began to study the black lotus seed carefully.

The black lotus seed was a fruit borne by the black lotus. It was an extremely rare spiritual herb that grew in extreme places like a swamp filled with miasma.

Due to the toxicity of the plant, its leaves had already rotted and turned white, while its flowers had turned black. The most valuable thing that could be obtained from the plant was the lotus seed it produced.

All the venom absorbed by the black lotus would gather and fuse in its body, turning into a brand-new type of venom.

When it bears a lotus seed, all the poison in its body would be concentrated on a small black lotus seed.

The black lotus seed would germinate when it fell into the rotting soil and turn into a new black lotus. This new black lotus would absorb the surrounding poisonous miasma and turn into a new black lotus seed.

After each cycle, the grade of the black lotus seed would increase.

This fourth-grade black lotus seed had gone through at least four reincarnations. One could simply imagine the poison inside such a rare black lotus seed!

Holding the black lotus seed in his hand, Li Ming felt his mouth go dry. This was the first time he had refined such a powerful spiritual herb, so he could not help but feel a little nervous.

The surface of the black lotus seed was extremely tough. Even a flying sword could not leave a mark on it, so the poison inside did not leak out.

If not for this, Li Ming's finger would have deteriorated at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the poison would have spread through his entire body extremely quickly. In barely any time, he would have turned into a skeleton.

Even a third- grade detoxification pill could not resist the toxicity of the black lotus seed, let alone the second-grade detoxification pill that Li Ming currently had.

Li Fengying was usually in charge of the shop's internal affairs, so she had heard of the black lotus seed. Her beautiful face was pale as she looked at Li Ming somewhat nervously.

She took out a sound transmission talisman from her sleeve, but the hook-nosed man's gaze fell on her once again. A fierce look flashed across his eyes. As long as she did something they did not want, these people would immediately make their move.

How dare these people be so presumptuous in the territory of the Divine Will Sect!

Li Fengying bit her lower lip, her gaze towards Li Ming filled with worry. The black lotus seed was definitely not something Junior Brother Li Ming could refine. It had already been extremely difficult for him to refine the fourth-grade Cold Magnet.

Refining the black lotus was even more difficult than cutting it open. Moreover, it was an extremely poisonous object. If he was not careful, he could easily be poisoned to death.

When she saw Li Ming's back, drenched in cold sweat, her heart skipped a beat.

If only the sect master was here!

Her heart was burning with anxiety. If the sect master rushed over, with his strength, he would be able to deal with these people!

Li Ming also had the same thoughts as Li Fengying, but he only delayed for a moment before sensing the hostility in the eyes of that fierce-looking man. He knew that he could not delay any longer.

With a wave of his hand, the stalagmite fire quickly wrapped around the black lotus seed. The hostility in the three people's eyes instantly disappeared. They looked at Li Ming warily and unconsciously moved their legs toward the door of the shop.

Li Ming understood that this was because they were afraid of the poison of the fourth-grade black lotus seed. Even if the three of them were at the golden core realm, once they came into contact with its miasma, they would probably find themselves in dire situations.

Li Ming wished he could throw the black lotus seed as far away as possible, but unfortunately, he was forced to work on it.

If he refined this black lotus seed and was poisoned..

The milky-white flame surrounded the black lotus seed. The black lotus seed was like a black inner core, emitting a strange aura in the white flame.

Li Ming made up his mind and threw away all distracting thoughts. Since there was no way out, it was useless to think too much.

He urged his divine sense with all his strength. In his other hand, there were five third-stage spirit stones. He began to set up a formation under his feet.

The fiendish man looked at the red-robed man. The red-robed man waved his hand. He knew that this was a formation used to recover the cultivator's spiritual energy.

Seeing Li Ming's clean and neat movements as if he were facing a great enemy, he could not help but feel a trace of anticipation.

After quickly setting up the Five-Elements Spirit Replenishing Formation, Li Ming withdrew his right hand and placed it on his knee. His entire body relaxed. His gaze never left the stalagmite fire.

In the milky-white flames, there was a black lotus seed that was jumping strangely and emitting a chilling aura.

The cold sweat on his back had already evaporated, but Li Ming, who was immersed in his work, was not nervous at all. His mind was now filled with only one thought: how could he refine this fourth-grade black lotus seed?

He quickly made up his mind. He did not have many options.

He could only resort to the Fourfold Fire Formation!

The Threefold Fire Formation was the one that Li Ming had used before. The Fourfold Fire Formation was the higher-grade version of that..
