I am Master Maoshan

Chapter 2216 New Situation
"Do you need me to help you rearrange the formation?" Yan Li asked softly.

"Of course, we can just set up a large soul-blocking formation." Liu Jun responded confidently, his tone revealing his familiarity with and control over the formation.

As they spoke, the two began to get busy. Their movements were swift and orderly, as if every step was deeply imprinted in their minds.

The two of them had an extraordinary tacit understanding. They could accurately place the top-grade spirit stones one after another in the designated positions without even looking at each other's positions. Their movements were smooth and coordinated, like a silent dance.

The deputy general of the Jihuo Army who was watching from the side could not help but sigh: "This Saint Girl and Your Majesty are truly a match made in heaven."

His tone was full of envy and admiration, as if he had witnessed the birth of a legendary love story with his own eyes.

However, Chu Liuying rebuked him mercilessly: "Nonsense, you don't even need to say that! Take people to the outer perimeter to guard and make sure there is no disturbance!"

After Chu Liuying sent his men away, he stood there quietly, his eyes fixed on Liu Jun and Yan Li, his heart filled with emotion.

He had also experienced the ups and downs of love, and all the sweetness and pain he had experienced had now turned into regrets and emotions in his heart. But at this moment, when he saw the tacit understanding and cooperation between Liu Jun and Yan Li, he seemed to see the love he had longed for.

"Boom!" As the last top-grade spirit stone fell steadily, the formation started again.

A dazzling light curtain quickly expanded, tightly covering Liu Jun and the others. This light curtain seemed to be an indestructible barrier, isolating all external interference and danger.

"Okay, you can prepare to make the elixir." Yan Li's voice sounded within the light curtain, with a hint of relaxation and anticipation in his tone.

"Aren't you going out?" Liu Jun turned to look at Yan Li, with a hint of doubt between his brows.

"What? Am I hindering you from refining the elixir?" Yan Li crossed his arms, with a teasing look in his eyes.

"That's not the case." Liu Jun waved his hands and explained, "It's mainly because refining this batch of divine pills is a complicated and dangerous process. I'm afraid that something might go wrong and I'll hurt you. Then I'll die."

Although the risk of the furnace exploding is extremely low with the support of the Ten Thousand Demons Cauldron, it does not mean that there is no risk at all.

This is the mass refining of divine pills. During the refining process, the spiritual power inside will reach a terrifying level. Once it explodes, the power will definitely be enough to cause serious consequences.

Hearing this, Yan Li raised a faint smile at the corner of his mouth: "It's okay, just refine yours. Since I have decided to stay, I naturally have the ability to protect myself."

The reason why she was reluctant to leave was because Yan Li felt that Liu Jun almost lost his life when she went to the northern border.

So this time she would not leave here no matter what, until Liu Jun finished refining the magic pill.

During this process, she can also protect Liu Jun to prevent any accidents from happening while refining the elixir.

Liu Jun shrugged, took a deep breath, and stopped trying to persuade Yan Li to leave. Instead, he focused his attention on the Ten Thousand Demon Cauldron in front of him. He began to repeat the previous steps, and each movement seemed so skillful and precise.

The little phoenix was flying happily beside it, and with a slight flap of its wings, endless flames poured into the bottom of the Ten Thousand Demons Cauldron, providing a constant supply of fire for alchemy.

The ghost doll sat beside the cauldron. Its deep eyes were fixed on the changes inside the cauldron, and it flexibly controlled the balance of spiritual power in the cauldron.

Liu Junze kept taking out various rare herbs from the pile of herbs in the storage space and carefully put them into the cauldron. As the herbs were added, the color of the flame in the cauldron began to change unpredictably, and a strong aroma of herbs filled his nose.

As time went by, one furnace after another of divine pills were refined. Each of them radiated a brilliant light, as if it contained infinite power. Liu Jun looked at these divine pills that he had refined himself, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Yan Li was also watching all this silently, with complex emotions flashing in her eyes.

Although Liu Jun is usually careless and seems to have no sense of responsibility, but after spending time with him, you will find that Liu Jun has been working hard, running forward with all his strength and never slacking off.

Before reaching the end, Liu Jun was experiencing life-and-death dangers every moment. Their master Qing Fengzi, his mistress Feng Wanqing, Wu Rendi, Su Wener and all the others were helping Liu Jun to reach the end.

But no one knows whether Liu Jun can reach the end.

Liu Jun probably also understood where he was going and how great the responsibility was.

Time passed quietly day by day, and in the blink of an eye, it was almost three months. During these long days, Liu Jun devoted himself to the arduous task of refining the magic pill. He was busy day and night, and batches of medicinal materials were put into the alchemy furnace, and batches were transformed into precious magic pills. Finally, when all the medicinal materials were exhausted, Liu Jun stopped his busy work and looked at the pile of magic pills in front of him, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

In the past few months, Liu Jun, with his superb alchemy skills and hard work, has refined more than 3,000 magic pills. These magic pills emit a faint light, and each one contains amazing energy. However, he did not keep all of these magic pills for himself, but sent more than 2,000 of them to Shui Yuexin.

After receiving these divine pills, Shui Yuexin immediately began to practice in seclusion. Just as Liu Jun expected, after taking a large number of divine pills, Shui Yuexin had amazing results. Her realm advanced by leaps and bounds, and she successfully recovered to the middle stage of the Divine King Realm, and her strength increased greatly.

As for the remaining 1,000 divine pills, Liu Jun generously distributed them to his elite soldiers. Nie Yun, Yao Guangxiao and others took the divine pills, and their strength was greatly improved, and they broke through to the late stage of the Half-Step Divine King Realm.

Among them, Chu Liuying's performance was particularly outstanding. He actually touched the edge of the Quasi-God King realm and was only one step away from officially stepping into the ranks of the Quasi-God King realm.

This speed made Liu Jun envious. He had been busy refining pills for the past few months, and his strength was only at the middle stage of the Half-Step God King Realm. He was truly a drag.

In addition, Yan Li also made a breakthrough with his help. The Qianyuan Enlightenment Pill made Yan Li's strength take a qualitative leap. After taking the Qianyuan Enlightenment Pill, Yan Li successfully broke through to the ranks of the Quasi-God King Realm, and his strength increased greatly.

Yan Li's breakthrough undoubtedly greatly enhanced Liu Jun's strength. Now, apart from Shui Yuexin, Yan Li has become the strongest person on Liu Jun's side. Her improved strength makes Liu Jun full of confidence in future battles.

Looking at his companions whose strength had greatly increased after taking the magic pill, Liu Jun's heart was filled with unprecedented satisfaction, and there was not a trace of jealousy in his eyes.

Because deep in Liu Jun's heart, he always firmly believes in a simple truth: the improvement of the strength of the people around him, in a sense, means that his own strength is also improving.

The power of a team is always greater than that of an individual. In this society, if you don’t have some connections, you’re doomed to be beaten.

In the past few months, although Liu Jun's own strength has not improved much, his belly has grown several times bigger because of the pregnancy of the Water Spirit Saint Fetus. Whenever he looked down at his big belly, he would always feel absurd.

"Brother, when are you going to give birth?" Xu Baoer teased mischievously, with a naughty smile on her face.

Hearing this, Liu Jun rolled his eyes and pretended to be angry and said, "Why, you want to deliver my baby? This is not a job suitable for you."

Xu Baoer didn't care about Liu Jun's joke at all. Instead, she teased him more enthusiastically, "It's not impossible. As long as you are willing, I can learn even if I don't know how. Maybe I can become a new star in the midwifery world!"

Liu Jun was amused by Xu Baoer's mischief, and then he smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Go away, go play somewhere else. Don't make trouble here. How is the thing I asked you to do going? Have you found more information about the Holy Water Fetus?"

Hearing this, Xu Baoer put away her smile and said seriously, "Don't worry, brother. I have followed your instructions and asked around about the Water Spirit Saint Embryo. Although I haven't found a definite solution yet, I have already made some progress."

During this period, Liu Jun's belly was expanding at an unreasonable speed. The size could not be said to be a few months of pregnancy, but rather a few.

However, at the same time, the holy water fetus residing in his belly was quietly shrinking in size, and the light emanating from its body was becoming increasingly dimmer. It was becoming weaker and weaker, as if it would disappear into thin air at any time.

What is even more worrying is that the little guy who used to be lively and active and often communicated with him is now silent and has never spoken a word to Liu Jun again.

This change made Liu Jun extremely anxious. Although the existence of this little guy often made him, a grown man, feel embarrassed and inconvenienced, he knew that he owed this little guy a huge favor.

Looking back, if the little guy had not tried his best and used his tender but tenacious strength to block Ximen Bisheng and Baili Shoushi, Liu Jun would probably have become their slave, lost his freedom, and lived in endless humiliation and despair.

Because of this, Liu Jun made up his mind to protect this little guy no matter what the cost.

He held his growing belly and endured the strange looks from people around him, but he never had the thought of retreating. In his opinion, this favor was more important than any face.

Of course, Liu Jun had considered more direct and extreme methods. He had the Law of Destruction in his body, and the power of the Law of Destruction was a terrifying energy that could devour everything and destroy everything. As long as he wanted, he could completely activate this power and let the torrent of the Law of Destruction devour the weak spiritual power of the Water Spirit Saint Fetus, thus solving this "burden" that made him both worried and helpless.

However, whenever this thought flashed through his mind, Liu Jun felt a strong sense of guilt and reluctance.

He couldn't imagine that he would actually attack such a little guy who saved his life. It was a cruel act that went against conscience and morality. Although this guy was not a good person, he had principles.

Therefore, Liu Jun had no choice but to continue to endure the discomfort in his stomach and try every possible means to find information and treatment methods about the Water Spirit Holy Fetus.

During this period, Liu Jun used almost all of his personal connections, from the God King level like Shui Yuexin to some common people. He hoped that with the help of these people, he could find some clues about the Holy Water Spirit Fetus, understand its origin, habits, and treatment methods.

However, reality is always more cruel than imagination. This little guy seems to be an extremely rare existence, and there is very little information about it. Even those experienced old hands know nothing about it.
