Hua Xiong left Hua Chao's cave mansion, but did not go back to his own cave mansion, but went towards another cave mansion.

The place he was going to was the cave where the Nine Elders in the door, Dongfang Zhaori, lived.

Airplanes......

Before arriving at a separate cave mansion, Hua Xiongyi stretched out his hand and touched the prohibition outside the cave mansion.

"Who is it?" As a voice came out, the figure of a middle-aged man appeared outside the cave mansion, it was the Ninth Elder Dongfang Zhaori who had met Xiao Ning.

"Elder Dongfang, I'm Hua Xiong!" Hua Xiong hurriedly hugged his fist when he saw Dongfang shining on the sunrise.

Hua Xiong is the third son of the Inner Sect disciple of the Five Elements Sect, although his theoretical status is not as good as that of Dongfang Asahi, but the growth space of the top ten sons of the gold list is greater, once he becomes a true disciple, an ordinary elder like Dongfang Zhaori is beyond reach, and only the four Dharma Protector Elders can really suppress it.

Therefore, after Hua Xiong saw the sun in the east, he didn't have to make a big salute at all.

"It turned out to be Hua Xiong, your mission this time was completed very beautifully, the bronze bone rhinoceros is not so easy to kill, it seems that your cultivation is getting closer and closer to the seventh major achievement of the Human Law Realm!" Dongfang Zhaori was also very polite when he saw Hua Xiong, he didn't need to offend Hua Xiong now, and Hua Xiong's cultivation was not much weaker than him.

"Elder Dongfang, can we go inside and talk?" Hua Xiong said.

Dongfang Zhaori pondered for a moment and said, "Then let's talk inside!"

Dongfang Zhaori didn't have much contact with Hua Xiong, and the top ten disciples of the Gold List were very proud, and they no longer had to rely on a certain elder to keep their status. Of course, except for the four Dharma Protector Elders in the sect, they are the three true disciples, and they should be polite when they see the four Dharma Protector Elders.

"Hua Xiong, is there something you are looking for me this time?" Entering his cave, Dongfang Zhaori asked again.

"Elder Dongfang, don't pretend to be confused, why am I here, I guess Elder Dongfang should be able to guess too, right?" Hua Xiong said with a slight smile.

"Hua Xiong, you better say it directly, what's the matter with falling to the ground?" Dongfang Zhaori said.

"I came to Elder Dongfang this time to discuss a cooperation with the elder!" Hua Xiong didn't beat around the bush and said directly.

Dongfang Zhaori frowned slightly, and asked, "Cooperation? How to cooperate? Do we have anything to cooperate with?"

Hua Xiong smiled slightly: "Of course we can cooperate, we have a common enemy, don't we?"

"Common enemy, what enemy can the old man have here!" Dongfang Zhaori raised his eyebrows.

"The elder is worthy of being an elder, he really has a bearing, a few days ago, this kid named Xiao Ning humiliated all the disciples promoted by your Nine Elders, but I didn't expect the Nine Elders to turn a blind eye, and they are really generous!" Hua Xiong saw Dongfang Zhaori pretending to be stupid with him, and said with a slight pout.

"Hmph, I know that your younger brother Hua Chao has suffered a loss at Xiao Ning's hands, if you want to deal with him, you can say it directly!" Dongfang Zhaori snorted coldly, originally he wanted to get a little benefit from Hua Xiong, but he didn't expect Hua Xiong to speak so sharply, which immediately made him reveal his hidden face.

"I said that I came to seek cooperation, so it can't be said that I want to deal with Xiao Ning, but we want to deal with Xiao Ning!" Hua Xiong corrected.

"My people are all lost in Xiao Ning's hands, do you want me, an elder, to do it himself?" Dongfang Zhaori said with some dissatisfaction.

"Of course, you don't need your Ninth Elder to take action personally, have you forgotten that the current Mission Hall is in the hands of your Ninth Elder!" Hua Xiong finally said his true intentions.

Dongfang Zhaori suddenly raised his eyelids and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Hua Xiong put his mouth to Dongfang Zhaori's ear and whispered: "I have already planned, we will do this......"

Hua Xiong and Dongfang Zhaori were entangled together, their calculations Xiao Ning didn't know, and now he was practicing desperately in his practice room.

Time passed day by day, and in an instant, Xiao Ning had been in retreat for a month.

In the past month, Xiao Ning's cultivation has not entered the realm, but the power of the sword technique has increased a lot.

In a month's time, he finally succeeded in cultivating the second move of the Willow Sword Technique, Shui Ying Liuying.

In addition, his move Water Reflection Willow Shadow is completely different from the Water Reflection Willow Shadow cast by the golden dragon before, not only has virtual and real, but can also stack attacks.

Because he has the entire "Tao Te Ching" in his mind, Xiao Ning has a much deeper understanding of the power of water softness and water characteristics than others, which is the key to his breakthrough limits, so that he can optimize and improve the second move of the Willow Shadow Shui Ying Willow Shadow, and the overall power is three times higher than that of the ordinary Shui Ying Willow Shadow, and at the same time, the second move of the Willow Breeze Sword Trick Shui Ying Willow Shadow has also entered the realm of Xiaocheng.

For ordinary people, Xiaochengjing's Shuiying Willow Shadow can already get out of the customs, but Xiao Ning still feels that it is not ideal, so he resolutely decided to continue to stay in the practice room for retreat.

Xiao Ning's purpose is also very clear, he has already cultivated this water reflection willow shadow to the Dacheng realm. In addition, for the second killing move, Xiao Ning also has some clues, and plans to successfully cultivate it in one go.

Another month has passed, and Xiao Ning still hasn't left the customs......

Airplanes......

It wasn't until the fourth month passed that a burst of spiritual power fluctuations finally came from Xiao Ning's cave mansion, and then Xiao Ning's body came out of the cave mansion.

In the past four months, Xiao Ning's body has undergone earth-shaking changes, and now he is full of sharpness in his gestures, and he already has the momentum of the top ten disciples of the Five Elements Sect.

"Senior Brother Xiao Ning, you're finally out of the customs!"

At the moment when Xiao Ning walked out of the cave, two figures came in the distance, these two people Xiao Ning was very familiar with, and the only ones who could look for him as soon as he left the customs were Mu Yun and Chen Feng.

These two people are Xiao Ning's eyeliner in the Five Elements Gate, and they are also a huge help, although Xiao Ning is now ranked in the top ten of the Golden List of the Inner Disciples of the Five Elements Gate, they are still very polite to these two people.

"Senior Brother Mu Yun, Senior Brother Chen Feng, I have been in retreat for a long time, I don't know what happened in the door?" Seeing Mu Yun and Chen Feng, Xiao Ning knew that there must be news about him at the inner door of the Five Elements Gate.

"Senior Brother Xiao Ning, we are here to tell you a piece of news, that is, after you entered the inner gate, the task set for you by the sect has been released, and like other inner disciples, it is also three tasks, but the difficulty seems to be not small, you can go to the mission hall to see, these three tasks must be completed within a year, and the time when the task was released was more than three months ago, and you still have less than nine months!" Mu Yun didn't say much nonsense, and directly expressed his intention.

"Is it a sect task? What exactly is the task?" Xiao Ning also knew about the regulations of the inner disciples of the Five Elements Sect, but he didn't know what the specific task was arranged for him this time.

"It seems that he is killing two Xuan-rank high-ranking demon beasts, and he has to kill a group of horse thieves!" Mu Yun basically knew what happened in the Five Elements Sect, as early as the day Xiao Ning's sect mission was released, he knew about it.

"Xuan-rank high-level demon beast, this is a bit difficult. By the way, what did that gang of horse thieves do?" Although the demon beasts at the top of the Xuan Rank were difficult to kill, with Xiao Ning's current strength, he was not afraid. However, he was a little puzzled by the task of killing the horse thief, the horse thief and the Five Elements Gate can be said to be well water and not river water, Xiao Ning didn't believe that the Five Elements Gate would be merciful and peaceful.

"It seems that this group of short-sighted horse thieves once robbed our Wuxingmen things, and I don't know much about these, anyway, that's what you wrote on your task list. Mu Yun also felt that the matter of killing a group of horse thieves was a little incomprehensible.

"No matter how much, since it's a sect's task, then I'll just carry it out!" Xiao Ning didn't think much about it, his current strength was far from being comparable to before, and his confidence was much higher.

"Senior Brother Xiao Ning, we came to you this time, not just to tell you the news, the two of us want to remind you that you must be careful when doing tasks!" Mu Yun and Chen Feng glanced at each other and said to Xiao Ning.

"Oh, why the hell, are you so nervous, is this mission more difficult than I can handle?" Xiao Ning asked with some curiosity about the reaction of the two people.

"The two of us didn't see anything wrong with the mission, but we don't know if the person who issued the mission will have any bad intentions!" Mu Yun said with a hint of doubt on his face.

"Is there anything wrong with the person who issued the task?" Xiao Ning raised his eyebrows, knowing that Mu Yun and Chen Feng had something to say.

"Senior Brother Xiao Ning, the time you have been here at the Inner Gate is still short, and during this period of time, in addition to fighting with others, you are in retreat and cultivation, so you don't know much about the power of the Inner Gate of the Five Elements Gate, the head of this mission hall has a great relationship with you, this person is the ninth elder of the Five Elements Gate, Dongfang Zhaori!" Mu Yun said.

"Dongfang Zhaori!" Xiao Ning's eyes narrowed, he has a great relationship with Dongfang Zhaori, it is estimated that this Dongfang Zhaori has already hated him, if it weren't for the identity of the elder, I am afraid that he would have already taken action against himself.

"It's indeed him, so the two of us just want to remind you that you must be extra careful on this travel mission, and don't fall into the trap of the Nine Elders!" Mu Yun said.

"Well, Senior Brother Mu Yun has a point, I will be careful, this time I really thank the two senior brothers for coming over to remind me!" Xiao Ning showed a grateful smile on his face, having such two people in the Five Elements Sect was really of great benefit to him.

"You don't have to thank the two of us, you saved our lives!" Mu Yun said.

"That's not the case, I only saved you once, but you have helped me so many times, I still have to thank you, these things are given to you, and when I come back from completing the mission, I will be doubly grateful!" Xiao Ning took out four cloth bags from his body, each cloth bag contained a hundred pills, and handed them to Mu Yun and Chen Feng respectively.

"We can't take your pills, we've already taken a lot of your pills!" Mu Yun resigned.

Entering the inner door of the Five Elements Gate from Xiao Ning, he and Chen Feng really received a lot of benefits from Xiao Ning.

"You guys take it, I still have a lot of things that the two senior brothers need to take care of in the future!" Xiao Ning listened to Mu Yun and Chen Feng's words, but he didn't take the pill back.
