Chapter 66: Waiting for the Killer
He sat quietly aside, and during the day he looked away to hear the price of the boat ticket.
"To be honest, more and more Taoist friends have been asking about ferry tickets recently, so the original price has increased."
"One boat ticket is worth 1,500 spirit stones. It doesn't matter what age you are, it only matters the number of people."
The shopkeeper did not keep Han Li in suspense and told him the ticket price in broad daylight.
It actually costs fifteen hundred spirit stones.
In an instant, Bai Tian saw Junior Brother Han frowning, and he also thought the price was very solid. It's not that he can't afford it, but the cost performance is very poor. You know, it takes 10 to 20 years just to take the boat.
If an accident happens, the trouble will be huge.
If you two Taoists are interested, you can buy it now. The price may go up after a while.
The shopkeeper said with a smile.
The whole person is full of confidence.
If Bai Tian hadn't known that the Demonic Sect had long been preparing to expand its territory, he would have suspected that the Jintian Merchants would deliberately provoke a war and drive up the ticket prices. Bai Tian shook his head after hearing this, showing no interest at all.
"I'll take my leave."
After leaving the Jintian Chamber of Commerce, he continued to shop on the street during the day, hoping to find a treasure that could help him to form a pill. However, such treasures were extremely rare, and it was almost impossible to find them in other ways except at super large auctions.
Fortunately, there are the best caves and paradises in the south of the country during the day, so it’s just a matter of spending a little more time.
I can't say that it's a sure thing to form an infant, but I have no worries about forming a pill.
After staying in Fengdu for a month, I found that Xin Ruyin's recovery was better than expected. If she continues to recover, it will probably take a few years to cure her. Then I will see if she can practice. If she can, I will give her a set of exercises. I will train her when I have time and see how she grows.
Find someone to pass the news of the demon's attack back to Huangfeng Valley, and arrive outside the forbidden area silently during the day.
"The Blood Trial is about to begin. Wait for you at Spirit Beast Mountain."
He found that there were more and more disciples outside the forbidden area. He calculated the time during the day and went back to check the forbidden area to make sure no suspicious traces were left. He activated the forbidden area's core illusion array so that all the trial disciples who entered would not discover the mystery of the core of the secret area.
After all, there is a tens of thousands of years old spiritual eye tree that will never be known to anyone.
Continue practicing in seclusion during the day.
the other side.
Inside the main hall where the Yellow Maple Valley is located.
Lei Wanhe, Li Huayuan, Hong Fu, the old monster Qiong of Yanyue Sect, Fu Yunzi of Qingxu Sect and other Jindan gathered together to discuss the major event of the demonic invasion.
Everyone's face looked solemn and the atmosphere was somewhat depressing.
Lei Wanhe spoke first.
"My apprentice went to Tianluo Country to investigate and confirmed that the Tianluo Country's demon sect is indeed planning a war. All kinds of treasures are ready. They will launch surprise attacks on neighboring countries to strengthen the demon sect's strength and seize more territory. Yan Lingbao and Lingshou Mountain may have rebelled. What do you think of how to deal with it?"
Lei Wanhe stood up and said in a solemn tone.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expression changed drastically.
In particular, the betrayal of Lingshou Mountain and Yan Lingbao into the Seven Sects of Yue State has been confirmed by Huangfeng Valley.
Which disciple obtained this information?
You are so sure and confident?
Almost everyone couldn't believe it.
"Elder Lei, the ancestor of our sect asked us to discuss it first. Since your disciple said that Yan Lingbao betrayed us, do you have any concrete evidence?" The old monster Qiong of the Yanyue Sect didn't believe it and asked Lei Wanhe to provide evidence.
After all, Yan Lingbao has many disciples in the Yanyue Sect, and this matter is of great importance. If such a big thing really happened and the Yanyue Sect didn't even notice it, it would be embarrassing.
"That's right! This matter is of great importance, and it would be best if there is evidence."
Luan Xingchen of Tianque Castle echoed.
He believed that the demons were ready to make a move, but there were so many countries standing in front, so the war would not spread to Yue so quickly. Especially since Yan Lingbao was the first immortal cultivation family in Yue, it was unlikely that they would betray Yue.
So we need evidence.
The others looked at Lei Wanhe. Although he didn't say anything, his body language said it all.
"My disciple is recuperating in a secret place. How could he easily leave evidence for such a major event? How about this? You ask the Yan family's ancestor to visit the Yanyue Sect once. If he dares to come, it means that the news is fake. If he doesn't dare to come..."
Lei Wanhe said to Old Monster Qiong.
It means that no evidence is needed and you will know once you try it.
If he had nothing to hide, given the friendly relationship between Yan Lingbao and Yanyue Sect, he would definitely be happy to be a guest of Yanyue Sect. If he didn't dare, then he had already betrayed.
After saying that, everyone looked at Old Monster Qiong again.
Old Monster Qiong's expression was uncertain, with a hint of anger on his face. It was unclear whether he was dissatisfied with Lei Wanhe or angry at Yan Lingbao's betrayal.
"Okay! This elder will definitely test it when he goes back. If the ancestors of the Yan family don't dare to visit my Yanyue Sect, I will be the first one to not let them go!" said Old Monster Qiong in a cold tone.
It is not directed at Lei Wanhe. After all, it is better to be safe than sorry. Now it is in the discussion stage.
"What about Spiritual Beast Mountain? Many independent cultivators say that Spiritual Beast Mountain is colluding with the Demonic Path. How do we investigate this?"
"The bloody trial is coming, and this time it might really be bloody!"
Fu Yunzi changed the subject with a heavy face and asked for everyone's opinions. If Lingshou Mountain returned to Yuling Sect, then the situation in Yue State would be very bad. It was like a nail stuck in Yue State, and it had to be pulled out as soon as possible.
After he finished speaking, everyone fell silent.
After a moment, Fairy Nishang spoke.
"Have you investigated who spread the news? Our sect only found out that the news came from a casual cultivator from Dongyu Country, but Dongyu Country is a bit far from us and the clue has been cut off." Fairy Nishang frowned.
In fact, all major sects are trying to track down the news, but the mastermind behind the scenes is very clever and only seeks out independent cultivators to spread the news. Even if they are caught, no one would know who they are, so this matter is very tricky.
Everyone knows that Lingshou Mountain is a branch of Yuling Sect. It is difficult to verify whether someone deliberately provoked internal strife in Yue or really rebelled secretly.
As the secret meeting progressed, although the six major sects did not come up with a final result, they all reached a plan to prepare for a rainy day and make preparations for both war and retreat.
At least the news of the demonic attack had been personally verified by Lei Wanhe's apprentice, and was very credible, so they had to plan ahead.
"Boom~"
There was a loud noise, and Bai Tian, who was sitting cross-legged under the sacred tree, suddenly opened his eyes. He calculated the time and the date of the bloody trial was approaching, and his face turned cold.
"Listen carefully, any intruders wearing this kind of clothing will be killed without mercy. Don't worry about the rest, just eliminate the ones I mentioned."
With a wave of his hand, four golden-clad thugs who were not afraid of the repulsive force of the formation lay down obediently beside him. During the day, he issued the order to kill. Not a single disciple of the Spirit Beast Mountain was spared, and he kept his word.
If you dare to collude with the Yuling Sect, you will die!
"Squeak~ (OK Master)"
The four strange insects had been bored for a long time, and when they heard that they had food, drinks and fun in the past few days, they immediately responded happily. They promised not to let any enemy escape alive and eat them all.
"All disciples only have five days, go in quickly."
Fu Yunzi shouted loudly, and the disciples of the seven sects who were undergoing the trial quickly entered the passage, and a new round of bloody trial began again.
When he stood at the core of the formation during the day, he found many green dots on the formation disk, and knew that these people were trial disciples. The four golden dots were the Heaven Devouring Insects.
As soon as the seven sects' disciples entered, some of them encountered battles and started fierce fighting immediately, while others rushed towards their respective targets to collect medicinal materials for the foundation-building pill.
Bai Tian was kindhearted and only collected some young plants for the time being. He would pluck them out when the demons came to attack. He would take away all the older plants and not leave any behind.
As long as the demons find that there is nothing to gain, they will lose interest in the forbidden area, and perhaps they will collect it once every sixty years as they did before, so that they can have a quieter environment for cultivation during the day.
The four strange insects did not leave the central area, waiting for the food to be delivered to them.
One day passed.
All the surviving trial disciples waited for the Moon Sun Orb to dispel the fog and entered the central area as soon as possible, where a fierce battle soon broke out.
As treasures and elixirs become increasingly scarce, the trials become more and more bloody.
A fierce battle broke out as soon as we entered.
A team from Lingshou Mountain, led by a Qi Refining Great Perfection disciple, led a team of six or seven people to move forward in search of the main medicinal materials for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill. Because of the rumors, they tried not to meet with the other six sects' disciples and only went to the goals that had been set.
The main focus is stability.
They thought that reducing the harvest would reduce casualties, but they were completely wrong.
Several people are moving forward carefully.
Suddenly, a shocking scene happened.
A terrifying spiritual pressure far beyond the foundation building came, and then a golden light like an arrow appeared and shot towards the team like lightning. There was no time to see what it was, only to feel the dazzling golden light.
"what!"
"what!"
"what!"
Three screams were heard, followed by three blood mists bursting out, and waves of blood rain fell. The three disciples of Lingshou Mountain were instantly turned into scum, and died on the spot under the huge impact.
What’s even more terrifying is that the leading elite disciple who had reached the state of great perfection was the first to fall.
You have to know that he was an elite sent by Lingshou Mountain, one of the strongest fighters in the Qi Refining Stage, but he was killed in the blink of an eye! This shows how terrifying the mysterious enemy is.
It was totally unexpected that the elite troops were killed during the day.
He was so young that he didn't even bother to take action.
"Run! There is a terrifying monster with foundation-building strength here!"
After confirming that his elite senior brother was killed instantly by a mysterious monster, a disciple from Lingshou Mountain roared, his heart filled with boundless fear, and he ran away, wishing he had a few more legs.
However, the golden light struck again.
"Bang" sound.
The disciple who had just escaped was turned into blood mist by the huge impact and was destroyed by a golden monster insect. The other disciples were extremely panicked and fled in panic.
But these people are too slow.
The golden-clad thugs didn't even need to attack head-on. They could easily wipe out a team of Spirit Beast Mountain disciples using just their speed and strong bodies.
After killing a group of traitors from the Spirit Beast Mountain, a golden-clad thug had no interest in low-level flesh and blood. While his companions were enjoying the food, he put away all the storage bags, flapped his wings and quickly flew to the core of the forbidden area.
Seven storage bags appeared before Bai Tian.
He was not polite and took out a few spirit stones from the spoils storage bag and fed them to the obedient Baoshilu, then put away everything.
Even though you may not like it, a mosquito leg is still meat.
I thought this business was good.
You can sit at home and storage bags will come from the sky!
After several attacks, all the enemies and their spirit beasts became food for the strange insects.
When the trial was over, the Golden Core Elder of Lingshou Mountain discovered that not a single disciple had come out. I wonder how angry he would be!
