"What did you say?" The elder's face darkened and he said coldly: "What if I insist on going in?"
"Then Bai must be offended." Bai Che said calmly. As he spoke, the spiritual power on his body fluctuated, and a half-step mid-level energy dissipated.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and several elders looked at Bai Che with unkind expressions.
Zuo Dao finally couldn't stand anymore. He smiled and said, "Brother Bai, Elder Qiu, we are all a family. Calm down first."
"Elder Qiu, I don't blame you for telling me, now is the critical period for Fellow Daoist Yi to understand. Even if you want to go in and have a look, you must complete Fellow Daoist Yi's understanding."
"Brother Bai, so are you. Since we have all entered the Zhengyang Sect, we are a family and should support each other. In this way, we can give this brother a face and calm down his anger. How about you and Elder Qiu turn their hostility into friendship?" Zuo Dao looked at him. Bai Che asked with a smile.
When Bai Che heard this, he sneered in his heart, "What a right-handed person, you are so red-faced and white-faced. Do you think your grandpa Bai can't see that you are secretly instigating all this?" But as the saying goes, don’t hit someone with a smiling face. Now that everything is unclear, it’s still not appropriate to fall out with him.
"What are you talking about, Master Zuo Sect?" The coldness in Bai Che's eyes dissipated, replaced by a smile on his face, and he said: "Elder Qiu and I are both members of the Zhengyang Sect. There is no such thing as a fight. It was just just now. It's just some misunderstanding, and the sect owner is willing to help us two resolve the misunderstanding, so what reason does Bai have for not agreeing?"
"Brother Bai is so open-minded." Zuo Dao praised: "In that case, I won't disturb you and fellow Taoist Yi for the time being. At night, I will help you two catch the wind and wash away the dust. Then you must drink two more drinks. "
"That's for sure." Bai Che nodded.
After sending Zuo Dao and others away, Bai Che's face slowly darkened, and a cold murderous intent emerged in his eyes.
At the same time, Bai Che's expression gradually became solemn. After the bronze pot left, the power of the bronze pot remaining on Bai Che was slowly dissipating, and his realm was falling. Bai Che estimates that he can last up to two hours, by which time he will return to the seventh level of body tempering.
"It will take some time for the Master of the Blood Sect to get results. People from the Zhengyang Sect will not come to the door for the time being." Bai Che thought to himself: "In that case, I will first set up a small trap formation and at the same time carve a few talismans. .”
Bai Che chose a direction and began to arrange the trapping array according to the method of the bronze pot. Pieces of spiritual stones flew out quickly and landed in different positions. Soon after, a faint light rose, and a small trapping array was completed. .
"Now that it's a talisman, let's try seal carving a second-level talisman." Bai Che had a plan in mind.
Bai Che has been wearing the Dragon Blood Jade Pendant, and with the improvement of his realm, his mental strength has improved somewhat, and he can try to carve second-level talismans.
On the other side, Elder Qiu said to Zuo Dao: "Sect Master, do you really believe these two?"
Hearing this, Zuo Dao shook his head and said, "I don't believe them. After what happened just now, I have more doubts."
He had carefully recalled many past events before, but there was indeed no impression of Bai Che in his memory, which meant that he did not know Bai Che. But he didn't know why Bai Che came to Zhengyangmen. He wasn't sure whether he was exposed, so he went to test it.
"Then Master, you..." Elder Qiu frowned.
"I don't know the purpose of their trip, so I can only observe it first. At the same time, the matter has reached a critical step. There is no room for any mistakes. Fighting with the two of them may affect the plan." Zuo Dao replied, with a lot of eyes in his eyes. A little cold.
"Of course, if these two people sincerely join our Zhengyang Sect, we will not treat them badly. I hope they really have no other intentions." Zuo Dao said slowly.
Zuo Dao is worthy of being the sect leader of the Zhengyang Sect, and he is also a sophisticated man, but he neglected one thing. He would never have thought in his wildest dreams that the person who came to the Zhengyang Sect with Bai Che was Xue Wuyi, the sect leader of the Blood Puppet Sect. .
...
An hour passed, and Bai Che's realm dropped to the middle stage of soul-casting, but there was a pile of talismans beside him, with dozens of them, including five-spirit talismans and some auxiliary talismans, but they were all second-level. However, there is also a lot of wasted material.
"Thunder Talisman, Fire Talisman, Ice Talisman, Quicksand Talisman, Sunda Wind Talisman, and second-level Divine Movement Talisman, Diamond Talisman..." Bai Che looked at the talismans one by one, with a smile on his lips, but He also thought that except for some magic weapons, exercises, elixirs and other items in the storage bag, most of the other stolen items were completely wasted, especially the spirit stones, and his body ached suddenly. Now his The number of spirit stones is zero.
"It's impossible to be a poor man again." Bai Che shook his head and said to himself: "After we rescue them, we have to find a way to make some money."
Bai Che was thinking when suddenly, the wooden door opened and Xue Wuyi walked out.
"Found it." Xue Wuyi said lightly.
"Where?" Hearing this, Bai Che's eyes moved, and murderous intent suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"Follow me." Xue Wuyi glanced at Bai Che and said calmly.
So Bai Che followed Xue Wuyi in the same direction.
"Is this... the main hall?" Gradually, a majestic and magnificent building appeared in front of Bai Che, "Here? Are they so brave?"
"No." Xue Wuyi shook his head and said, "Not in the main hall, but under this main hall."
Hearing this, Bai Che nodded.
There were ten disciples guarding the entrance of the main hall. When they saw Bai Che and the two coming, they frowned and one disciple asked loudly: "Who are you? Why are you here?"
"Bold." Bai Che said, "We are honorary elders who have just joined the sect. The sect leader has ordered us to come here. Do you dare to stop us?"
"Honorary elder?" The disciple looked suspicious, and then saw Bai Che handing him the token.
Seeing the token, the disciple repeatedly bowed his hands and said, "I didn't know it was two elders who came here. I didn't meet you at a distance. I hope the elders will forgive me."
"It's okay, don't be surprised if you don't know." Bai Che said, "The Zuo Sect Master asked us to come here to find him. Do you want to report something?"
The disciple saw that although Bai Che and the two looked cold but indifferent, they didn't look like they were lying, so he waved his hands and said, "No, no, you two elders, just go in."
Bai Che nodded, patted the disciple gently and said with a smile: "After that is completed, I will personally tell the sect leader how you have fulfilled your duties. I believe the sect leader will be happy."
Hearing this, the disciple was overjoyed and said: "This disciple is determined to be a member of the Zhengyang Sect. He will fulfill his duties with utmost care and dedication."
With that said, Bai Che and the two entered the hall, and then closed the door of the hall.
The entire hall does not look out of the ordinary. It is just an ordinary conference hall layout with some simple wooden chairs and tables and a main seat. There is a plaque above the main seat with the four words "Zhengyang will last forever".
Bai Che searched around and found nothing unusual. He tried many places but could not find any mechanism, which made him frown.
"There is nothing abnormal..." Bai Che said to himself, "No, since the blood energy has escaped, there must be a space, and this space must have a door."
Thinking of this, Bai Che asked Xue Wuyi: "Master of the Blood Sect, can you sense the specific location of the blood energy?"
Xue Wuyi closed his eyes. After a moment, he looked at a floor and said, "The blood energy escapes from here."
"That's it." Bai Che nodded. He blocked the sound and punched through the floor. Now that the portal was determined, it was the fastest way to crack it. It was too troublesome to find the mechanism.
Under the floor was a long staircase. Bai Che and Xue Wuyi went down the stairs, and then there was a long corridor. They didn't know how long they had walked, but they only knew that they had gone deep underground at this moment, and the corridor disappeared and appeared in front of them. In front of them is a large wasteland.
"There is a different cave here." Bai Che said coldly.
They continued to move forward, and soon a huge pond appeared in front of them, but it was not filled with water, but a bright red. There was a bloodless corpse floating inside.
"I knew it would be like this." Bai Che said to himself.
"Blood pool..." Xue Wuyi frowned, "It's still an artificial blood pool. Huh, what a big deal."
"Artificial blood pool?" Bai Che's expression changed, and he had the answer in his heart.
"Yes, it is an artificial blood pool. As the name suggests, it collects blood and uses spiritual power to maintain its spirituality and prevent it from being corrupted. I don't know how many people these beasts have killed." Xue Wuyi said coldly.
"Do you Blood Puppet Sect still care about how many people you kill?" Bai Che smiled, his meaning was obvious.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, you can't just look at the surface of many things. Although our Blood Puppet Sect practices Yin Xie magic, we are not murderous people. We also have blood pools, but they are natural blood pools. They are the result of the fall of the ancient great power. It was formed later, and subsequent supplements mostly came from strange beasts, and there has never been any indiscriminate killing of innocent people." Xue Wuyi said coldly.
Bai Che was a little surprised by Xue Wuyi's words, but he didn't say anything. After all, the matter was not yet understood, and it was still unclear who was true and who was false.
"The spiritual energy content of the blood pool here is not high. It must be a waste pool." Xue Wuyi said lightly: "Their main pool should be in front. Fellow Daoist Bai, let's go."
The two were speechless and continued to walk forward. Gradually, they came to a larger blood pool. Xue Wuyi's face turned ugly. He saw corpses one after another. Those corpses were obviously disciples of the Blood Puppet Sect. They were all He died from being drained of blood.
When he saw the body of the person soaking in the blood pool, his eyes moved.
Xue Wuyi calmed down and his expression returned to calm. After a moment, Xue Wuyi said calmly, "Fellow Daoist Bai, I'm afraid someone from my Xue Puppet Sect has taken refuge in Zhengyang Sect."
Xue Wuyi pointed to the soaked corpses and continued: "Otherwise, how could the people of Zhengyang Clan master this method of refining blood-clothed puppets?"
"Of course, it's possible that he was forced to say it under torture, but it's unlikely." Xue Wuyi added.
"Master of the Blood Sect, do you have anyone to suspect?" Bai Che asked.
"Now is not the time to talk about this matter. If it's the second possibility, it's fine. But if it's the first one, I'm afraid I've been exposed, because my Blood Puppet Sect's spell can lock a person's aura, and my aura can't be disguised. It can’t be covered up.”
"It's okay on the ground. The mixed aura from the outside world can cover up my aura, but most of it below is just blood. My aura will be amplified here, making it easier for others to detect."
"In other words, if it is the first possibility, it will have been exposed when we stepped into the underground." Xue Wuyi said lightly.
