After giving a brief salute and exchanging pleasantries, the two of them took their seats.
"We haven't seen each other for a while, but fellow Taoist Lu has actually improved in his cultivation. This little girl is really surprised!" Yuntao didn't talk about business immediately, but looked at Lu Zhong in surprise, with a strong look of envy. road.
Only when you reach the elixir formation stage can you understand the difficulty of improving your cultivation.
It is rare among Alchemy monks to see people like Lu Zhong who can make obvious improvement in a few years. It often takes ten or even decades as a unit to feel the progress in cultivation.
Compared to himself, Yuntao felt that Lu Zhong's chances of becoming a Nascent Soul were probably higher.
"Fellow Taoist, we were joking. I just got something occasionally recently." Lu Zhongdan smiled and did not get too involved with Yuntao on this. He chose to bring the topic back on track and asked about the matter of pulling chestnuts out of the fire: "I don't know if you are inviting me this time." Come on, have you confirmed the specific details of the action?"
"Well, well..." Yuntao hesitated.
Seeing her expression, Lu Zhong couldn't help but secretly wondered, and asked: "Fellow Taoist Yun, what are you doing?"
"It has something to do with our ancestors." Yuntao frowned slightly.
Family ancestor?
"Are you talking about Senior Li? Thanks to her for taking care of her many times, I wonder how she is doing lately?" Lu Zhong carefully recalled Li Qionghua's obvious abnormal state when they last met. It must be an extremely serious state of obsession, so he couldn't help but Curious about her current situation.
"Fellow Taoist, come with me. You will understand after seeing it." Yuntao stood up and wanted to invite him, but deliberately gave it up. After Lu Zhong came out of the palace, the two of them walked a few steps, and then added: "The plan There may be changes, if fellow Taoist can be recognized by the ancestors, he might get some opportunities."
When she said this, there was a sense of sourness in her heart.
Obviously he is the descendant of Li Qionghua, but the family ancestor would rather leave the opportunity to outsiders than give it to his great-great-granddaughter.
I really don’t know which side is her blood descendant!
The two walked along and soon came to a side hall.
Looking at the tablet in the hall, Lu Zhong felt
Looking at the tablet in the hall, with the words "Family Ancestor Li Qionghua" clearly written on it, Lu Zhong was slightly startled for a moment, then quickly realized it, but still in disbelief, he turned to Yuntao and confirmed:
"Fellow Daoist Yun, is it true that Senior Li..."
"As fellow Taoist saw, our ancestor was in Jun Lingzhen. After the thief died, he died of his injuries soon after. Before leaving, she left something behind.
Yuntao took out something from her body, but it was a palm-sized preaching jade slip. The spiritual light is flowing above it, and you can tell at a glance that a restriction has been imposed, and it is of an extremely high level.
Lu Zhong could see more. The ban on jade slips should only have one try, and it would self-destruct if it failed.
What Yuntao said later also confirmed this.
"The family ancestor's last words stated that if fellow Taoist disciples could unlock the ban on the jade slips at once, then she would know about the Lingyue Sect's secret ways, the storage places of rare spiritual objects everywhere, and... as well as the method of winning the main peak of the Lingyue Sect, Just give it all to fellow Taoists, without any lies!"
"..." Lu Zhong took the jade slip and was silent for a while.
He did not expect that he would see the death of three Nascent Souls in his lifetime.
Recalling their first meeting in the secret realm of Shen Yuan Palace, Lu Zhong felt that Li Qionghua was just a scheming old Nascent Soul monster who wanted to take other people's bodies. After learning about her grievances with Jun Ling, I realized what kind of experiences she had experienced, and my impression of Li Qionghua changed slightly.
Later, a series of events occurred, and the impression remained within that range.
Neither good nor bad.
But Lu Zhong couldn't understand why Li Qionghua would leave a chance for herself?
"Maybe there is something in the jade slip..."
Thinking of this, he studied the prohibition on the jade slip. It was obvious that it was the type of entering a password, and he could even clearly infer that it was three words.
Without being reckless, Lu Zhong tried to simulate decryption in the gray fog space.
After a while, the result came out and it was the word "Su Xu'er".
Seeing that the forbidden formula was this, he probably knew what Li Qionghua would leave a message.
Considering that it was a one-time missionary jade slip, Lu Zhong did not give up the opportunity to read the jade slip to Yuntao. Instead, he immersed his spiritual consciousness into the jade slip and wrote tens of thousands of words eloquently.
In addition to what Yuntao mentioned, Su Xuer was also mentioned.
"...My friend Lu Zhong, now my grudge is over, but only the broken body is left, and I will die soon... In order to make up for the sin of taking the body, I hope that my friend can repay one or two things for me."
When Lu Zhong saw this, he knew it was a "deal".
That is to say, Su Xuer's ashes will be returned to Baishou Farm. If the Su family is currently encountering difficulties, he will see that it is best to solve them smoothly, so that the transaction can be regarded as completed.
"Li Qionghua didn't dare to complete such a simple content herself. I think she felt guilty... I didn't expect that an old monster who seizes someone's body without blinking would be so complicated inside." Lu Zhong thought in his heart.
Looking up, he saw that Yuntao was about to speak but was hesitant. He did not reveal the deal.
All in all, I only talked about the Lingyue Sect.
After hearing this, Yuntao's beautiful eyes were filled with shock. Especially when she heard the whereabouts of one of the spiritual objects, she kept mumbling to herself: "I see, that's it..."
Lu Zhong clearly saw a look of guilt appear on her face, but it disappeared quickly.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, let's change our target to the main peak of Lingyue!" Yuntao suggested excitedly with a blush on his face.
"The Jade Blood Divine Peach Tree..."
"Sorry for deceiving fellow Taoist. The little girl thought that there was no hope of obtaining the Yueling Peach, so she had to settle for the next best thing and target the Blue Blood God Peach Tree. In fact, the Yueling Peach located on the main peak of Lingyue attacked me. The realm of Nascent Soul is even more helpful, and its effect has a magical effect on the Tao Yao spirit body I possess, no less than the legendary Sky-Building Pill!" Yuntao said with some hesitation.
Then he looked at Lu Zhong nervously, as if he was afraid of his anger.
hehe!
Lu Zhong had no expression on his face and just cursed her secretly in his heart.
I really don’t have many true words to say.
He thought about it again and guessed that Li Qionghua had given this method, and she was secretly thinking of supporting Yuntao. After all, she was his blood descendant, and blood was thicker than water after all.
But then again, the method given by Li Qionghua is really possible.
The seven peaks of Lingyue are all places of treasures, but in terms of the essence among them, it must be Lingyue Peak. It is not only the retreat place of True Lord Yuanying, but also the place where the Lingyue Sect's meritorious service hall and treasure house are located.
If it can be obtained by surprise, the benefits will be more than just a star.
The key is the risk involved.
It's not that Lu Zhong did great things and spared his life.
But when the Lingyue Sect collapses, except for a few of the remaining elders who will cherish their lives, the rest will most likely choose to die together. It is estimated that self-destructions will be everywhere.
If you are not careful, you will end up on your back.
This scene is very likely to happen.
"I want to discuss this matter with Master." Lu Zhong said honestly.
According to Li Qionghua's plan, the capture of Lingyue Peak requires the cooperation of the forces belonging to the three of them, and there can be no mistakes in the process. Although after failure, as long as you retreat in time, you won't suffer much loss, but seeing the huge opportunity slip away like this, I'm afraid no one else would be willing to accept it.
Fortunately, two points exceeded Li Qionghua's estimation.
First, Shui Ni has cultivated to the false infant state, so she has stronger strength.
Second, Lu Zhong already has an incarnation that can exert the power of forming pills in a short period of time. If necessary, he could even be asked to pull the Lingyue Sect elder to self-destruct.
In other words, there will be more room for planning.
"Oh, okay then." Yuntao couldn't object, after all, the initiative lay with Lu Zhong.
Likewise, she couldn't find another ally.
The method Li Qionghua tried to find was too demanding on individual strength. If the number of people is gathered, Yuntao is confident that with some sweet talk, he can definitely attract more than a dozen people to form pills. However, this plan is more expensive than more expensive. In fact, the main force has to rely on Lu Zhong's master and apprentice.
If she were not at a certain critical juncture, she would have played an irreplaceable role.
I'm afraid I'm not qualified to participate.
…
Leave Huanyun Sect.
Lu Zhongma didn't stop and came to Zhenling Sect again.
True Spirit Palace.
Shui Ni was sitting in the high hall, sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed and meditating. When she heard footsteps walking into the hall, she thought it was Chu Yuehong coming, but she never thought that what she would see when she raised her eyelids was the person she had been thinking about day and night. .
Feeling both surprised and happy, I ran down barefoot.
Don't forget to turn on the ban during the process to prevent someone from breaking in and ruining your good deeds.
"Why, you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, but you are willing to come and see me as your teacher?"
Shui Ni's bold move made Lu Zhong a little embarrassed. He remembered his purpose of coming and said seriously: "I really have something to discuss with Master when I come here this time."
"Oh, is something really wrong?"
Hearing this, Shui Ni looked a little unhappy, but she still pulled up her clothes and let Lu Zhong continue talking. After he finished telling Li Qionghua's plan, he couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
After a long while, she said:
"Capturing Lingyue Peak is indeed a good thing."
It can not only take revenge on the Lingyue Sect, completely regain the hearts and minds of the three Heling Sects in the past, and complete the internal integration of the Zhenling Sect in advance. It can also bring her in urgent need of baby-making spiritual objects to her in the fake baby state.
It can be said that it definitely kills two birds with one stone.
"The question is, how to verify the authenticity of this information." Shui Ni raised her own question.
When Lu Zhong heard this, he spread his hands.
"That's why the disciples came here."
"Huh, I really came here because I had something to do!" Shui Ni whispered.
This voice is not small, and it is more deliberate.
"..." Lu Zhong heard it completely.
Shui Ni pretended not to know, as if nothing was wrong, and looked at Lu Zhong with a smile, "Whether the information is true or false, it is not difficult to verify. There are still channels on my teacher's side."
On the Lingyue Sect side, she has actually sent out a lot of detailed work.
One or two of them have even reached high-level positions. Coupled with the fine network inherited from Heling Sanzong, they are fully capable of verifying the authenticity of the information.
After hearing what she said, Lu Zhong suddenly knew that his worries were in vain.
…
Half a month later, Shui Ni reluctantly let Lu Zhong leave.
Lu Zhong walked out of the gate of Zhenling Sect, feeling his sore waist, thinking that if he left a little later, he might even lose his vitality.
But it's not all without benefits.
After Shui Ni cultivated to the realm of false babies, she needed to relax her skills from time to time because she was temporarily unable to conceive a baby.
He got a lot of benefits from coming here this time.
It's hard work, but it's worth it if you can save three or two years of hard work. Moreover, what he gained from Shui Ni was not just progress in cultivation...
There is also a lot of joy.
Slowly rising into the air, Lu Zhong glanced in the direction of the True Spirit Palace, nodded to Shui Ni who was standing at the door of the palace, and then turned into a rainbow and flew towards the direction of Lingyue Immortal City.
The journey that should have taken half a day took him two days.
When I arrived at Baishou Villa, I saw only ruins and ruins, the bones of wives and wives were looming, and even the fertile fields for growing pasture were completely abandoned. Half of the Su family was nowhere to be seen.
Flying high into the sky, Lu Zhong found a village of mortals.
The village is not big, with only about a hundred households.
Judging from their sickly faces, it was obvious that they were not living a good life. When they saw Lu Zhong falling from the sky, they all knelt on the ground in fear. Although the villagers didn't know Lu Zhong's specific cultivation level, they also knew that someone who could fly was definitely not an ordinary immortal master.
If it weren't for the black aura and bloody smell on Lu Zhong's body, the villagers might have fled in all directions at this moment.
Xu Shi saw that Lu Zhong had not killed anyone. The village chief, who had only one leg left, walked over tremblingly on crutches with the support of a woman in sixties, and wanted to kneel on the ground to salute.
"The Great Luo of All Worlds"
"No need." Lu Zhong helped him up and asked, "Don't panic, I just want to inquire about one thing. Does anyone here know the current whereabouts of the Su family of the former Hundred Beast Farm?"
"Hundred Beasts Farm?" The village chief's cloudy eyes were full of confusion.
Seeing this, Lu Zhong also sighed.
A mortal generation lasts only thirty or forty years.
The man in front of him is considered to have lived a long life, but it is estimated that something might have happened to the Su family's Beast Farm long before he knew anything, or it might have been moved to another place.
Just when he thought his trip was in vain, a childish voice sounded.
"Master Immortal, I know where the Su family has gone!"
Xun Xun looks like a tomboy.
Seeing Lu Zhong's gaze, the girl couldn't help but tremble. She knew how powerful the immortal masters' methods were, and the immortal master in front of her had an extraordinary background.
However, she still had the courage to ignore the villagers who kept winking at her. She raised her head and said: "My grandfather once worked as a book boy in the Beast Villa, and he was appreciated by Master Su. Before his death, my grandfather Tell me where the Su family went!"
"Stop, stop talking nonsense!" The village chief stood up tremblingly and scolded the girl loudly.
"Shut up, I won't say this a second time." Lu Zhongdan said.
He is pregnant with Tianluotong, so he can naturally see that there is something wrong with the person in front of him. The blood on his body was lingering, and he knew without even thinking that he had practiced magic skills. He probably had a lot of human lives on his hands. It's just that as a person without spiritual roots, even though he has paid a huge price in longevity, he is only in his early thirties, and now he is as old as an octogenarian, but there is not even a trace of magic power in his body.
Or.
I had it before, and I couldn't help but leak it.
"Immortal..." The village chief smiled charmingly and continued talking.
The next moment, a sword light passed by.
After taking care of this person, Lu Zhongcai looked at the girl and asked calmly: "Tell me, what are the conditions?"
In his opinion, she probably didn't tell the whereabouts of the Su family, because she was obviously trying to make conditions. For a pill-forming monk, it is really not too easy to fulfill her wish.
Unexpectedly, the girl knelt down directly.
There was a bang bang sound, and he kowtowed more than a dozen times.
If Lu Zhong hadn't pulled him up in time, he might have knocked himself unconscious.
Even so, his face was so injured that it was covered in blood.
After Lu Zhong performed a few rejuvenation spells, the girl just recovered and wanted to kowtow again, but fortunately, he stopped her quickly with his quick eyesight and hands.
I also felt helpless.
You are so stubborn at a young age. Could it be that you are a stubborn donkey?
"Stop kowtowing and tell me your conditions first."
"But grandpa said that you must kowtow to your benefactor!" the girl said seriously, and then knelt down again.
"But I didn't ask you to knock so much!"
Lu Zhong kept slandering, his mood fluctuated for a while, and he really accepted this "stubborn donkey". After some hard work, she was able to "righten" her and learn the whole story.
But it's an old-fashioned plot.
The village chief got the magic power and killed the girl's parents.
Now that the village chief was beheaded by Lu Zhong, she naturally regarded the immortal master who took action as a benefactor and simply wanted to kowtow to thank him.
As for the whereabouts of the Su family, they moved to the Central District of Lingyue Fairy City thirty years ago. But which city it was, my grandfather, who was just a mortal book boy at that time, was naturally not qualified to know.
