In the jungle, two figures, one black and one green, chased each other, and the fluctuations of various methods of cultivating immortals spread among the trees.
"Jie Jie Jie, why do you need to fight like a trapped beast? This is our territory for thousands of miles. Where else can you run? It's better to surrender directly. If you are in a good mood, I can still keep you alive. corpse!"
The demon cultivator disciple from the outer sect of Xuanyin Sect who was chasing behind him gave out a weird laugh and at the same time used various words to disrupt the opponent's mind and fighting spirit.
The person he was chasing was a young monk in his twenties.
"Damn it..." Sensing the murderous intent getting closer and closer from behind, the young monk, Li Dazhu, was gritting his back teeth, his face full of unwillingness and anger.
If it weren't for Qingyun Sect's damn Lending and Loaning Law in the Lingmai Cave, how could he have gone deep behind enemy lines for the Lingshi and ended up in such a life-and-death situation today? !
He was originally close to the Qingyun Sect and a member of Yunlaifang City.
His parents turned out to be deacons in an alchemy hall under Yunlaifang City.
In the past, although their family had no hope of cultivating immortals, they lived a pretty good life. They could still hope that among their descendants, a genius with three or two spiritual roots would come out and create a generation of immortal cultivating families.
But such a beautiful and promising day ended inexplicably more than 20 years ago.
More than 20 years ago, the Qingyun Sect inexplicably came up with a leasing method for the Lingmai Cave Mansion, building a cave abode on the Lingmai of Fangshi, and then selling the residence rights for a period of thirty years.
At first, his parents didn't take it seriously. After all, even the price at which the Spiritual Vein Cave was just sold would consume more than half of their family's spiritual stones. But no one who is a little smart would not spend more than half of his family's spiritual stones. The family property is invested in unknown places.
Later, they also watched the price of the Spirit Vein Cave in Fangshi rising steadily with the attitude of watching a good show.
Originally they thought they were just watching the fun, but what they didn't expect was that as time went by, while the price of the Lingmai Cave continued to rise, it gradually began to be tied to other things.
For example, the elixirs used to break through bottlenecks, the defensive spiritual weapons or escape talismans that can save lives, the precious secrets and techniques, even the Qingyun Flying Boat tickets to leave Fangshi, and the acquisition of the next generation of immortal cultivation resources all begin to be related to this. The Spirit Vein Cave is bound.
Without it, there would be no hope of further advancement in the entire city.
In desperation, Li Dazhu's parents had no choice but to buy the Lingmai Cave.
But the price of the Lingmai Cave at that time was really too high. Even if my father was a deacon of the Alchemy Hall and emptied several people's storage bags, he couldn't afford it.
After thinking about it again and again, I also saw that in the market, the market was prosperous due to the decentralization of many resources by Qingyun Sect and the investment of resources by all parties, large and small.
Li Dazhu's parents finally signed a spiritual stone loan called "Loan Dai Chuan".
With the help of parents, children and grandchildren, they jointly bought a spiritual vein cave.
According to their plan, judging from the current prosperity of the market and the speed of earning spiritual stones, it will not take two generations, at most more than twenty years, to repay the spiritual stone loan.
But what they can't understand is that although the market is so prosperous and the sales of high-end elixirs, spiritual weapons and the like continue to rise, the spiritual stones they obtain from their work are constantly decreasing.
Gradually, later on, on the land of Lingnan Cultivation, shops closed down one after another, except for the various forces of the Qingyun Sect, a large number of monks were deported, and the amount of spiritual stones his parents harvested was also decreasing.
In the end, his parents lost their jobs, but the Dongfu loan still had to be repaid.
If they don't pay it back, the monk's entire family, including his wife, children, and children, will be put into the mines as coolies and die in pain.
Just when they were almost driven to a dead end by this, a turning point appeared, that is, the Qingyun Sect and the Xuanyin Sect started a war.
In response to this war, Qingyun Sect released a large amount of resources and spiritual stones, and the rewards given were very generous.
Therefore, in order to receive generous spiritual stone rewards and repay loans, countless low-level monks like Li Dazhu were forced to have no choice but to risk their lives, fight head-on or sneak behind enemy lines to collect intelligence.
This is also the reason why so many casual cultivators like Li Dazhu work hard for the Qingyun Sect.
As for why he didn't take refuge with the demon cultivators, the reason was simple, because they were more cruel.
After all, your corpse can exert the same combat power as you, and you don't have to worry about loyalty.
"Damn it, who is it that developed this damn spiritual vein cave rental method? Otherwise, I wouldn't be where I am today!"
Feeling the murderous intent getting closer and closer behind him, Li Dazhu looked tragic.
'No, I can't die here! If I die, my descendants will have to repay the loan. This is absolutely not okay! '
Li Dazhu's eyes were bloodshot. He was always honest, but a flash of madness flashed in his pupils.
"I'll fight you!"
Then, he yelled, turned around, and rushed towards the black-clothed demon cultivator crazily!
Veins popped out on his face, and he held a talisman in his hand that emitted a bright spiritual light, and rushed towards the black-clothed demon cultivator regardless of the cost!
"The fight between trapped beasts?!"
The black-clothed demon cultivator's expression changed, and he did not hesitate to take out a bone magic weapon in front of him for defense.
But what he didn't expect was that Li Dazhu rushed over and instead of fighting desperately, he jumped up and ran away directly from behind him!
"You are looking for death!"
The black-clothed demon cultivator was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized and became furious.
He didn't expect that he, who had experienced many battles, would be tricked by this boy who didn't have much blood in him!
"Die to me!"
He directly put down the Bone Shield in his hand and rushed towards Li Dazhu!
"Damn boy, I'm going to peel off your skin and cramp you..." Before the black-clothed demon cultivator could say anything, his expression suddenly changed wildly.
Because the boy in front of him turned around again and threw a sparkling talisman at him!
The first desperate attempt was just to make him relax his vigilance. The real killer move was to counterattack after he became angry and neglected to defend himself!
Uh-huh!
One after another, blue thunder appeared in the air, intertwined and condensed, forming a small thunder ball, and then exploded directly!
boom!
The huge explosion resounded throughout the jungle, instantly startling countless birds!
"Ahem! Poof!"
Amidst the flying dust, Li Dazhu fell to the ground, feeling his body rolling and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
He also suffered extremely serious injuries when the thunder talisman was triggered at such a close range.
"I don't know about that demon cultivator..." Li Dazhu wanted to say something more, but when he looked to the side, his pupils suddenly shrank.
Because in the still smoke, a figure stood there. It was the demon cultivator who had just fought with him. Not only was the opponent not dead, but at some point, a human skin blood suit appeared on his body to resist the thunder talisman's attack. harm!
"Damn it, am I going to have to die here today? But there are still loans..."
Seeing this scene, Li Dazhu looked unwilling and closed his eyes in despair.
Now that he was seriously injured, he had no ability to resist and could only let others slaughter him.
"Um?"
But after a while, the expected pain did not come, and Li Dazhu couldn't help but open his eyes.
To his surprise, the demon cultivator in front of him didn't take action. Instead, he stood there straight, with the expression on his face changing, and he was still talking randomly.
what's the situation?
Li Dazhu couldn't help but be stunned, and he also heard what the black-clothed demon cultivator said, which was somewhat intermittent and inconsistent.
"Jie, Jie, Jie, I've finally been promoted to Foundation Establishment. I don't have to be angry with you, a loser anymore!"
"Jindan, I am the ancestor of Jindan!"
"I am the number one person in the land of Lingnan, and I will ascend again today!"
At this point, the black-clothed demonic cultivator suddenly paused, the expression on his face became distorted and crazy, and he yelled crazily: "Ascend! Ascend! Ascend!"
W-what's going on? !
Before Li Dazhu had time to understand why, the aura of the black-clothed demon cultivator in front of him suddenly increased steadily.
But at the end, clusters of dark red flames appeared from the inside out, and the whole person spontaneously ignited!
After the flames burned, a bright red heart and a skull exuding the faint soul fire were left on the spot!
The heart contains the blood and essence of the demon cultivator that has been refined by the flames, while the skull contains the soul of the demon cultivator!
The scene in front of him stunned Li Dazhu.
Not only does it make people commit suicide, but it also extracts their essence and blood and imprisons their souls. What kind of demonic cultivation method is this? What kind of old demon is here? !
"It turns out that this is a small character. It's a shame that I have to go through so much trouble to read his memory."
At this time, Lin Chen, who had just arrived, walked out of the jungle on the side.
He just used illusions to read the memory of the demon cultivator, and got a rough idea of the situation in this area.
But he didn't know much, after all, the other party had just become a monk not long ago.
"But it doesn't matter. Isn't there another person here?"
Lin Chen turned around calmly, but when he saw the panic in Li Dazhu's eyes and his body desperately retreating, he couldn't help but be stunned.
'Strange, do I look so scary? '
Lin Chen was a little confused, but when he saw the skull and heart in his hand, his heart skipped a beat.
'Oops, I'm used to being frugal these days, killing people, taking blood and souls has become a routine, I almost forgot that I am a righteous person! '
With the mentality of not wasting anything, Lin Chen has become accustomed to drawing blood to refine souls in the past twenty years.
But he himself almost forgot that his original identity was not an old demon, but a true disciple of the righteous sect!
"Ahem!"
Lin Chen turned his hand and put away the heart essence, blood and soul skull, with a kind smile on his face.
"Boy, you don't have to be afraid, I'm actually a good person."
