"Very good!" After hearing the introductions of the two women, Mo Juren nodded with satisfaction and continued,
"Since you have become my exclusive deacon disciple, you and I are destined. If you have any questions about talisman making or cultivation in the future, you can ask directly. I will naturally not be stingy."
Such a promise without hesitation immediately made the two women feel happy and thanked them profusely. At the same time, they were also glad that they were lucky and did not meet a stingy old stubborn.
"Don't be too happy too early. My situation is a bit special. I rarely come to Tianfu Peak, and I may not even come once for decades..." Mo Juren saw what the two of them were thinking and poured cold water on them.
Sure enough, the two women who heard this were instantly dumbfounded. What's the use of doing it once in decades? Apart from the addition of an elder's exclusive maid, it is no different from before.
"What, you regret it?" Mo Juren chuckled, but as soon as these words came out, the two women were immediately frightened to death, and they fell to their knees with a plop, not even daring to say anything.
"Okay, it's just a joke. Get up quickly." Mo Juren raised his hand and cast a soft spell. After lifting the two women up, two tokens suddenly appeared in his hand. He handed them to the two of them and said again,
"This is a specially made token. If anything happens in the future, you can use this token to go directly to the cave to find me, or to find a few of my apprentices. As for my identity and the identity of my apprentices, I don't think so. I said you two will know it yourself...and this room will be taken care of by you two from now on."
"The elder has given you such a generous gift, and we will never forget it." The two women had just recovered from the 'fright' just now, but now they had received such great benefits. This huge change, which was frightening and joyful, immediately made people happy. The two of them were a little at a loss, and they became more and more in awe of the kind-hearted and gentle-spoken elder in front of them.
After explaining again, Mo Juren no longer planned to stay here any longer, but left the room directly. After flying out of Tianfu Peak, he flipped his palm and a communication token appeared.
With the input of mana, the token was activated. He did not hesitate and immediately passed on a message. Soon there was a response from the other party, and he directly chose the sound transmission.
"If nothing happens, go to Qiling Peak immediately!"
"Okay!" After cutting off the summons, Mo Juren fumbled for the token in his hand, and couldn't help secretly guessing that it seemed that the ten-thousand-year-old corpse turtle, or rather the human face, was more troublesome than he expected, otherwise the East Gate Map It won't be so urgent.
But, who is that face? Dongmen Tu was so anxious that he probably knew something and even recognized the origin of the face.
If the guess is true, then things will become more complicated.
As for Qiling Peak, it was not somewhere else, but a special mountain peak in the southern region, where the cave of ancestor Xuanyuan was located. Dongmen Tu asked him to go directly, obviously intending to discuss the matter with the other party.
This further confirmed his suspicion that the situation might be more troublesome than expected.
According to his original idea, he did not intend to participate in it. After all, there were so many strong men in the Nascent Soul stage in the sect, so there was no need for a junior like him in the Core Formation stage to take the lead.
However, now that he has the status of quasi-supreme elder, he has truly become the core of the sect, and it is inappropriate not to show his face. Besides, there is also the face portrait, which needs to be handed over to the other party during the opportunity.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, and his whole body suddenly flashed with light, turning into a white rainbow and piercing the sky.
…
Qiling Peak is located in the southern area of Qiling Mountains. It is a short peak with a height of only more than 500 feet. It is naturally far incomparable to other giant peaks over a thousand feet, but it is the best cultivation holy land in the sect.
The reason is also very simple. This peak stands just above the source of the underground holy veins, and the concentration of spiritual energy is the highest in the Qiling Mountains. Therefore, this place belongs to the ancestor Xuanyuan alone, and it is where he usually lives in seclusion and practices.
A stream of light flew over, revealing Mo Juren's figure. Looking downward, he saw a special area covered by thick green fog.
This is naturally the Qiling Peak, and the thick green fog is the special restriction formed by the 'Blue Fall Formation' arranged inside. Not only can it block the line of sight and shield the consciousness, the fog also contains violent toxins. A top-notch formation that integrates defense and attack.
His eyes stayed on the thick fog for a moment, and a communication talisman appeared in his hand. After activating it, he whispered a few words and then threw it forward. The talisman instantly turned into a ray of fire and penetrated into the dense green fog at high speed.
He didn't wait too long, and in just a breath, the thick green mist began to surge, and then split somewhere, revealing a temporary passage.
Seeing this, Mo Juren did not hesitate, he drove the escape light and plunged in like lightning. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared, and the originally cracked passage was healed as before.
After passing through the dense fog area, my eyes suddenly opened up, and I came to a wonderful world where spiritual energy surged and birds sang and flowers fragrant.
Qiling Peak is not high, only more than 500 feet. The entire peak is covered by countless dense forests, and the gaps between the dense forests are filled with exotic flowers and grasses, all colorful.
What surprised Mo Juren even more was that three ordinary-to-extreme thatched houses were built in an open area on the top of the peak. In front of the houses, there were some medicinal fields with various elixirs planted on them.
I had long heard that Patriarch Xuanyuan didn't like luxury, but I didn't expect it to be so simple. As the great elder of the Yuling Sect, the so-called cave is just three thatched cottages. This kind of behavior is really the opposite of his clan brother, Feng Ziling, the leader of the Wanling Merchant Alliance, who likes extravagance and enjoyment.
There is a small courtyard in front of the thatched house. At this time, two figures are sitting opposite each other in the courtyard, chatting about something while drinking tea.
These two people were none other than Patriarch Xuanyuan and Dongmen Tu who had just parted ways.
Sensing Mo Juren's entry, the former immediately laughed and shouted loudly: "Now that you've come in, why are you still standing there in mid-air? Hurry up and try my spiritual tea."
Faced with such an invitation, Mo Juren naturally did not dare to neglect at all. Moreover, he was indeed attracted by the faint fragrance of tea, and he appeared next to the two of them in a flash.
"I have met two elders." Mo Juren bowed respectfully.
"There's no need to be so outgoing, sit down quickly." Ancestor Xuan Yuan smiled warmly, raised his hand to indicate that he should sit down, and then continued,
"I've heard about your good tea for a long time. Some time ago, someone gave me a copy of 'Ningbixiang'. Try it and see how it tastes. It should be regarded as one of the top ten spiritual teas in the spiritual world."
While speaking, he already pushed the poured tea forward.
"I don't have to worry about you, I can just do it myself." The other party poured the tea himself, and his words showed a natural intimacy, which made Mo Juren feel flattered.
Ningbixiang can be ranked as one of the top ten spiritual teas in the spiritual world. It is naturally famous and of top quality. The water color is green, like amber and jade, and the fragrance is fresh and elegant, refreshing.
After taking a brief sip, a wisp of strange fragrance instantly poured into the heart, making people feel refreshed unconsciously and giving them a sense of endless aftertaste.
"Good tea. Thanks to your old age, I'm enjoying it today." After another sip, Mo Juren said with a smile.
"As long as you like it, it's not in vain." Patriarch Xuanyuan smiled slightly again, and then asked,
"How is it? Are you satisfied with this trip to Talisman Burial Valley?"
"Extremely satisfied." Putting down the tea bowl in his hand, Mo Juren waved his arm lightly. As the red light shone, the Blood Moon Mirror appeared in front of the East Gate Picture and said again,
"I would also like to thank the elders of Dongmen for providing the information. The original treasure mirror has been returned, and this junior can be considered a good friend."
"How many times have I said that we should be friends with each other if we are equals? You don't have to speak like an elder to look unfamiliar." Dongmen Tu pretended to be angry and cursed with a smile, then picked up the mirror and asked again,
"Is the information you sent before serious?"
"It's absolutely true!" Mo Juren didn't pay attention to the other party's polite words, and took out another jade slip and handed it to the other party,
"This is the appearance of the face I recorded. The two elders might as well take a look and see if they know the origin of the other person?"
It would be great to have a person's appearance. You can always find some clues by searching according to the picture. The two elders did not hesitate, and immediately picked up the jade slips and looked at them one after another.
It's okay not to read it. After reading it, the expressions of both Ancestor Xuanyuan and Dongmen Tujin changed. It was obvious that they had discovered something.
"I didn't expect it was really him!" After a long time, Patriarch Xuanyuan finally spoke first.
"This matter is a bit troublesome." Dongmen Tu also sighed, and his expression became extremely solemn.
"Do you two recognize this person?" Mo Juren was a little curious.
"He is 'Master Tianmiao'!" Dongmen Tu replied directly without any further concealment.
"What! It's him!" Hearing this name, Mo Juren was stunned. Unexpectedly, he turned out to be the only Talisman Saint in the Talisman Burial Valley!
You know, he has just obtained the other party's inheritance, and he has great affection and respect for this person in his heart. But he never thought that the other party was not dead, but was inhabiting the body of the ten-thousand-year-old corpse turtle.
For a time, all kinds of feelings came to my heart, and I didn't know what to say.
"It should be that an evil method similar to 'spiritual possession' was cast to merge with the corpse turtle." Dongmen Tu explained again, but he couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart. Although this kind of evil method can continue to exist in the world, But it has too many disadvantages, and even once it is born and died, it will be completely wiped out, and there is no chance to enter reincarnation.
After a pause, he continued,
"In fact, seventy years ago, when I and four elders of the Nascent Soul stage went out to kill this beast, I felt something was wrong. Its intelligence was too high, and it could even use some strange secret techniques. If it weren't for the strength of both parties, The disparity, coupled with the special environmental restrictions of Talisman Burial Valley, makes it inevitable and extremely difficult to kill it.
And even with such a favorable time and place, the cooperation of four people still allowed him to escape with his life. It is precisely because of this reason that I have always been uneasy, so I asked many weapon refiners from the sect to join forces to refine the Bleeding Moon Mirror, and at the same time, I asked you to help investigate. "
"Now that the matter is over, how do you two plan to deal with each other?" Putting away his thoughts, Mo Juren asked again.
"The Jueling Pond is too special. If the opponent keeps hiding in it and cannot come out, there is really no good way. Therefore, we can only think about it in the long term. Fortunately, after the last killing, its foundation has been completely destroyed. Even if It will take a long time to truly grow up after turning into a ghost cultivator." Dongmen Tu shook his head slightly, with helplessness on his face.
"Is there no way?" Mo Juren thought for a while and felt that the matter was difficult. The Jueling Pond was really too special. No wonder it left the other party helpless.
There was one thing that puzzled him, what kind of corpse turtle was it? Why is it unaffected in the Jueling Pond? Or is it because he was transformed into a corpse cultivator? Or is it the current ghost cultivator?
There were too many doubts in his heart, but he did not continue to ask. With many elders of the sect watching, there was no need for him to bother.
After the business was finished, Mo Juren planned to say goodbye and leave, but he never thought that Patriarch Xuanyuan, who had directly seen his thoughts, opened his mouth to stay, and even asked pretending to be angry:
"I'm not here to be in a dragon's pond or a tiger's den. You kid has finally come here, and you can't wait to leave?"
"How is that possible? I just don't want to disturb your old Qingxiu." Everyone said that, so Mo Juren naturally gave up the idea of leaving immediately and said with a smile.
"You're such a naughty boy, you can always find excuses. I'm not practicing now, so why bother?" He glared at the other person in annoyance, but Patriarch Xuanyuan put away his expression and suddenly asked,
"You should have some understanding of my situation, right?"
"What you are always referring to is..." Mo Juren was startled.
"Senior Brother Feng doesn't have long to live. It won't be long before he passes away." Dongmen Tu sighed, probably guessing what Patriarch Xuanyuan was thinking, and then explained on his behalf.
"Is there really no other way? Also, didn't you mention last time that you planned to refine a furnace of 'Impermanent Pill'? Isn't that also possible..." Mo Juren naturally knew something about the situation, but he didn't expect it to come. So fast.
"The Impermanence Pill has been successfully refined, but it's a pity..." Ancestor Xuanyuan shook his head slightly. It was obvious that he had already taken this pill, but it had no effect.
"Okay, let's not talk about this. It just so happens that you are here today, and I will take this opportunity to tell you some things."
"If you have any orders, just say so. As long as I can do my best, I will never refuse." Mo Juren immediately expressed his attitude.
Seeing this, Ancestor Xuanyuan immediately nodded with satisfaction, and then said seriously,
"After living for so many years, I have already put aside the matter of life and death. The only one I can't worry about is the Yuling Sect. Once I die, the strength of the sect will inevitably be greatly affected, and it will become more and more difficult to do things in the future, and even suffer. It is not impossible to be suppressed secretly by other forces..."
"Senior Brother is worried about the Hehuan Sect?" Dongmen Tu asked directly with a look on his face.
"In the last battle between good and evil, our Yuling Sect expanded rapidly, and its profits were no less than those of the Hehuan Sect. That's why we have the current situation. It's normal for the other party to be afraid. In my day, the Hehuan Old Demon will still have some scruples. , once the future is destroyed and the high-end combat power is lacking, the other party will definitely not miss such a good opportunity due to its insidious and domineering temperament."
