Chapter 298: Salamander Heart, Cutting the Heart and Refining the Aperture (Please Vote for Me!)

Yu Lie and Ya Ba walked to the Amethyst Taoist Temple. Before they knocked on the door, a lazy voice came from the Taoist temple:

"You kid, you've been absent from work for so long, and you're finally willing to come here. Are you tired of not getting paid, and don't want to stay here?"

There was a nervous look on Yu Lie's face, and he hurriedly said: "The Taoist priest is wronged. This junior has been busy at home recently with transformation matters, which is why it has been delayed for so long."

"Eh!" The female Taoist priest Zizhu in the view let out a surprised sound. A burst of powerful spiritual consciousness immediately fell on Yu Lie's body, and she easily saw through Yu Lie's cultivation.

The remaining breath-absorbing insects hidden in the hair had no effect at all.

Zizhu Nudao was inexplicably silent for a moment, as if she found something on Yu Lie's body, and then she spoke:

"With your cultivation, although you have practiced Taoism for twenty years, you have not broken through to become a middle-level Taoist disciple. Your heart has not been transformed, but the transformation has failed. Why do you come to this Taoist to ask for help?"

For some reason, when Yu Lie heard what Zizhu Nu said, he felt that she had no intention of directly refusing to help. He seems to be considering whether to really help Yu Lie, which is completely opposite to his previous stingy and stingy image.

However, Yu Lie didn't come over to the other party for help because he failed. He just wanted to get a few hearts of powerful seventh-level monsters from the other party's hands to use for his own transformation.

Yu Lie immediately pointed to the myna on his shoulder and half-truthfully told him about practicing with the myna.

Then he bowed and said respectfully:

"My foundation is shallow and I have no followers in the city. I hope Taoist Master Zizhu can give me the opportunity to spend money to buy medicinal materials in the palace. After transformation, I will definitely serve the Taoist Master again in the temple. Don’t dare to neglect!”

After hearing Yu Lie's explanation, Zi Zhu Nu Dao focused her attention on Ya Ba. After a little recognition, she realized that the demonic energy in Ya Ba's body was not enough and it was indeed a breakthrough just now.

"That's it." Zizhu Nu said with a hint of surprise in her voice. She paused and actually agreed in one breath:

"This matter is simple. You don't have to worry about my identity and go to the palace to buy medicinal materials. It is too troublesome. I have exactly what you need here. It just depends on whether you have the ability to transplant this heart into your body."

Yu Lie was overjoyed when he heard this.

The other party agreed so freely, which was really beyond his expectation.

Perhaps Zizhu Nudao also realized that she had agreed too happily, so she calmly made amends:

"You little guy, you are worthy of being a trainee disciple of this Tao. You have only been on the mountain for a little more than a year, and you have already completed twenty years of Taoist practice, and you have not been poisoned or misfired once. Such potential is worth the investment of this Tao."

But don’t think that this way treats you harshly. This way is entirely for your own good.

And when it comes to a critical moment like a breakthrough, what kind of foundation you can lay, this Tao will support you in laying what kind of foundation! "

Zi Zhu Nu Dao said grandly, which immediately made Yu Lie's face appear with tears of gratitude.

He hurriedly bowed and stood in front of the Taoist temple and swore: "I dare not die for the Taoist priest!"

But at the same time, Yu Lie once again noticed that today's Zi Zhu Nu Dao was quite different from the past.

He was beating a drum secretly in his heart: "What's the plan of this guy who promised so happily? Could it be that he wants to bury some backhand in the medicinal materials to harm me? But there is no reason."

However, Yu Lie then thought about it. Once he got the medicinal materials, he would definitely soak them in a bronze wine cup. No matter whether there was a hidden secret in the medicinal materials, as soon as he soaked them, everything would be gone.

He was so worried!

The next moment, Zi Zhu Nu Dao really waved her sleeves.

A heart the size of a millstone suddenly floated out from the Taoist temple and landed in front of Yu Lie. It was still alive and beating, and its vitality had not been lost.

Yu Lie looked at such a big heart and was a little confused for a moment.

How can ordinary Taoist disciples stuff a heart of this size into their own small chest?

Seeing Yu Lie in a daze, Zi Zhu Nu Taoist burst out laughing and said:

"This is the heart of the seven-horned salamander, which is the remaining material for the poor Taoist alchemy. The realm is the genuine seventh level. Don't ask which level of the seventh level it is. I didn't evaluate it carefully. They are nothing more than beasts, just leftovers.”

The other party shouted:

"If you can find a way to incorporate this heart into your body, this heart will not be accepted by this Dao. It will be regarded as supporting you by this Dao. But if you can't, then everyone will think about it, and you will live happily in the future. Here, I work to pay off my debts.”

Yu Lie felt happy in his heart, but still had a look of embarrassment on his face:

"Here, Taoist Master, how can a disciple transplant such a big heart into his body?"

When Zi Zhu Nu Dao heard this, she sneered and reminded: "That's all, I will give you a few words.

This seven-horned salamander is one of the few live flesh and blood creatures in the world. It has strong vitality. Even if its heart is damaged, it can grow back on its own without external help, cut into pieces of flesh, and form its own body. .

Moreover, the axolotl is also called a hexagonal dinosaur in rumors, and its body contains dragon veins. Pindao, this is a seven-horned dinosaur... The dragon can be big or small, it can stretch or contract, it all depends on how you make it. "

The other party paused and then said: "If you feel that there is nothing you can do, I can give you another one..."

Yu Lie had been listening carefully to the words of Zi Zhu Nu Dao. He was thinking about it in his heart. He also thought of the specificity of a creature like the salamander, and a thought came to his mind that he could move a millstone the size of a millstone without the help of a bronze wine cup. His heart shrank into a ball and stuffed into his chest.

So he quickly handed over his hand without waiting for the rest of Zi Zhu Nu Dao to finish:

"Thank you, Taoist Master, for giving me this treasure. My disciple is willing to give it a try!"

Zi Zhu Nudao heard it and said calmly: "That's good."

Immediately, the female Taoist stopped talking, her attitude became cold, and the Amethyst Taoist Temple suddenly fell silent.

When Yu Lie saw this, he knew smartly that the other party was showing off his guests. He bowed to the Amethyst Taoist Temple repeatedly, and then led Yaba and quickly walked out of Zishan.

"Taoist Master, you are busy. Disciple, please leave first and won't disturb Taoist Master any more!"

It wasn't until Yu Lie stepped outside the scope of Zishan that he stepped on the huge iron chain connecting the mountain peaks that he ordered Crow Ba to grow in size and transform into a mount.

He jumped, sat cross-legged on the opponent's back, flew up, and flew toward the ground in a swaying manner.

When Yu Lie was leaving Zishan, the silent female Taoist Zi Zhu in the Taoist temple frowned and looked at him: "Why does this little guy have the breath of insects on his body? It feels quite familiar to me, could it be..."

After she "watched" Yu Lie's departure completely with her spiritual consciousness, she waved her finger gently, and her own Taoist scriptures emerged, attracting the dragon's energy, and appeared into words as they circulated.

Soon, a lot of information about Yu Lie, including his background, cultivation, certified spells, and performance in the assessment, etc., all appeared in front of the Zi Zhu Nu Dao. The details were very detailed, and there were also some information about Yu Lie. Diving County's return to his hometown, and the current situation of the Yu family in Diving County.

Obviously, when Yu Lie came to the Taoist Palace, the Taoist Palace kept a close watch and conducted a detailed investigation on his identity, and recorded them one by one in a library that ordinary people could not see.

Zizhu Nu Dao scanned Yu Lie's background, and her eyes immediately fell on the three words "Blackwater Town".

She stared closely, her eyes blurred: "As expected. This little guy was born in Blackwater Town. No wonder he can possess Gu insects like the Breath-Collecting Insect, and he happens to be practicing alchemy."

After thinking about it carefully, Zi Zhu Nu Dao smiled lightly on her face:

"In that case, I want to see how capable this student you are interested in is."

………………

The other side.

After Yu Lie obtained the salamander heart, he did not return directly to the courtyard, but flew to the elixir shop first.

He looked through his accounts, withdrew a large amount of spiritual stones, and went to various places that could provide medicinal materials, including the black market. He spent his money and purchased six seventh-grade living hearts in one go, some large and some small. foot.

Although compared with the newt heart given by Zi Zhu Nu Dao, the heart Yu Lie bought himself was far inferior to the newt heart.

However, he was cautious by nature and could not place all his hopes on the things given by Zi Zhu Nu Dao. And bought other hearts, which can be used as medicinal materials and refined into them.

Once everything was ready, Yu Lie dragged the starlings who were showing off their prowess in the elixir shop back to the courtyard, and put the two surviving furry men into piggy bags.

He returned to the courtyard, waited for Luo Sen and Miaom to come back, gave a half-truth and half-false explanation, and then walked into the quiet room again.

for the rest of the time.

Yu Lie spent a lot of energy to conduct a detailed and appropriate inspection of the heart-changing Bago and the Maomin who built a bridge.

After confirming that he had mastered the three secret techniques, he blasted Ba Ge and others out of the quiet room, leaving only himself in it.

In the quiet room at this time, on the mottled metal altar, seven hearts of different creatures were placed in seven large or small balls of minced meat. Among them, the salamander heart, which is the size of a millstone, is placed in the center and attracts the most attention.

Yu Lie was wearing a black robe. He walked around the altar, circling around and looking at the hearts on it.

His expression was extremely solemn. Even though he had dozens or hundreds of experiences, Yu Lie was still nervous when it was his turn.

Especially now that he has retreated to the left and right, with no one around to take care of him or protect him. Once the heart transformation fails, he will not die but will be disabled.

Yu Lie considered it carefully and looked hard:

"All the preventive preparations that can be done have been made, so why hesitate any longer! And compared to other Taoist disciples' transformations, my success rate is already very high. Even if the transformation cannot be perfect, I can still make do with it to achieve my goal."

The next moment, he no longer hesitated, and suddenly climbed onto the altar, and sat cross-legged on the heart of the huge salamander, treating it like a futon.

In Yu Lie's ears, the drum-like sounds became more obvious one after another.

Seven hearts of different sizes were beating around him, and blood would spurt out from time to time, splashing on Yu Lie's body, which looked particularly terrifying.

What was even more frightening was that Yu Lie's eyes darkened. He lowered his head and put his fingers together. The sharp nails shone with cold light under the luminous pearls.

He covered his abdomen with one hand, and inserted his nails along the bottom of his throat with the other hand. Then, using his true energy, he slowly opened his sternum with difficulty but determination.

Creak, creak, creak! After the sternum was cut open in the middle, even with Yu Lie's concentration, his face was pale and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.

But this was just the beginning, and he didn't have much time to lick his wounds. Yu Lie narrowed his eyes slightly, trembling, and placed both hands on the center of his sternum.

Just listen to Kaka's voice.

He exerted force with both hands, and his sternum was like a door, slowly opening, revealing the protected organs inside.

Yu Lie lowered his head and fiddled with his own heart. A black and red heart appeared in his eyes and beat loudly, making the surrounding hearts tremble.

A suppressed voice hissed in the quiet room:

"Is this my heart?"

Yu Lie's eyes were crazy. When he looked at his organs exposed to the air, he crouched and resolutely put his right hand into his left chest, grasped the smooth heart, and took it out.

The dark blood, like lead and mercury, immediately flowed down his chest and landed on the heart of the sitting salamander, making a sizzling sound.

And it sank to the bottom, corroding the metal altar and creating huge holes.

Yu Lie looked up, holding his hands, and said trembling words in his mouth: "Can a person live without a heart?"

The quiet room is not big and is isolated from the outside world. His voice echoes in the quiet room.

The severe pain had almost overwhelmed Yu Lie's consciousness, especially since he could still clearly sense that the blood was stopping flowing in his body without a heart, and the feeling of suffocation was about to overwhelm him.

But not only was Yu Lie not afraid of this, he smiled ferociously on his face and said:

"It's alive, it's alive!"

The next moment, he reached into his chest with one hand and pulled out several thick blood vessels in his body. Then he reached up and, like a matchmaker, inserted several of his own blood vessels into the heart of the salamander beneath him. The heart of this foreign object pumps its own blood to barely stay alive.

After maintaining the state of survival, Yu Lie crouched and immediately started to refining the removed native heart through the embryonic method.

He also cut off blood vessels one after another on his body, and connected the original heart in his hand to a total of seven hearts in the whole body. He absorbed the true energy, eroded the hearts of these foreign creatures, and forcibly refined them. into merge.

Such a bloody and horrific scene lasted for seven days and nights.

After seven days.

Yu Lie sat cross-legged on the altar. His originally strong body had become extremely thin, and he looked as if his energy was like a gossamer. The black jade blood in his body had stopped flowing.

But coincidentally, his eyes were astonishingly bright and penetrating.

In addition to Yu Lie himself, the seven seventh-grade hearts he placed on the altar have also shriveled up with the help of scientific rituals and the embryonic method, and all the essence of flesh and blood has been absorbed into a black and red heart in mid-air. on things.

It is shaped like a peach, as big as a water tank, and has tentacle-like blood vessels sticking out, making it squirm in the air like a jellyfish, and it is ferocious and penetrating.

This thing is the heart of the seven orifices that was refined by Yu Lie's sacrifice!

However, Yu Lie's transformation is not yet complete.

He couldn't fit such a big heart into his body.

He is not like the transformation of the Eighth Brother in the past. If someone protects him and forcibly incorporates him into the heart, it will only cause his body to be corroded by the heart and become a demon.

Normally, Yu Lie can divide the "Heart of Seven Apertures" into pieces of meat the size of a human heart, and then let these pieces of meat mixed with the salamander's heart eat each other and grow back into the shape of a heart.

But with the bronze wine cup in hand, he didn't have to go through such trouble and waste.

Bang!

He took out an ordinary-looking cup and placed it gently on the metal altar.

Yu Lie waved his hand gently and cut off the blood vessels. The heart, which was as big as a water tank, separated from his body and fell into the wine glass without making any splash.

But his own complexion turned pale, and he became completely careless for a moment...
