Chapter 114 Elder, you are speeding
Li Xiuchang finally appeased Zhao Yuansi and didn't let him "expel him from the sect".
Zhao Yuansi said: "Since you don't want to give up the alchemy, then I, as your master, should give you some help.
"You are now a first-level alchemist and have the foundation-building cultivation. You can consider going to the 'Danxiang Building' in the sect market to register as a guest alchemist."
"Danxiang Building?" Li Xiuchang had some impression of this name. It seemed to be a large store in the market that specialized in selling elixirs.
Zhao Yuansi nodded: "That is my teacher's property. If you register as a guest alchemist, you will get discounts on some spiritual herbs and medicines. In addition, you can also receive alchemy tasks specifically for guest alchemists in the building. The Danxiang Building will provide materials, and you will be responsible for refining elixirs. It is also a rare opportunity to practice.
"You can also hand over the elixirs you refine to Danxianglou for direct recycling, or put them in the building for consignment."
After hearing this, Li Xiuchang felt that he didn't need them that much. He had no shortage of medicinal materials to practice with, and he also had Senior Brother Wang Long to sell them. However, he couldn't refuse the kindness of his master, so he agreed:
"When I return from my mission, I will take up a position."
Li Xiuchang then asked to borrow a few Confucian classics, and Zhao Yuansi, who was generous in other aspects, suddenly became stingy.
"Many of those books were collected by me with great effort, and many are even unique copies..."
"Master, don't worry, I will be extra careful and will never damage the books." Li Xiuchang promised, "Maybe it was influenced by the master, I suddenly became interested in the books of Confucian sages recently, and I feel that reading them in my spare time can cultivate my sentiments and improve my state of mind."
Since Li Xiuchang said so, Zhao Yuansi could only go to his study, entangled for a long time, picked three books, packed them in a box, and handed them to Li Xiuchang carefully.
At the same time, he repeatedly reminded that the three books must be protected and must not be damaged.
Li Xiuchang left the Zhao residence and received another message from Senior Sister Yan Xue, asking him to go to the General Affairs Hall.
When he arrived at the General Affairs Hall, he found that Elder Xu was already waiting for him.
Elder Xu said: "In two days, the envoys of the four major forces of the Demonic Path will meet. We should also set off. Do you have anything else to prepare?"
"Disciple is already ready and on standby at any time."
"Then return the token to me, and follow me now."
Li Xiuchang reluctantly handed over the token. Without this token, he could no longer get the resources of the sect for free every day, and could not use the spirit vein room for free.
However, when he thought of the reward for completing the task, he was full of energy again.
Elder Xu stepped on the flying sword, lifted Li Xiuchang with one hand, and put it on the flying sword. He took Li Xiuchang to fly on the sword, and flew straight out of the sect like a flash of lightning.
Li Xiuchang's legs trembled. Although he was almost a Dan-forming person, this was his first time flying on a sword.
Before, he had driven a flying boat and was used to flying at high speed, but that was sitting in a stable flying boat!
Unlike now, stepping on a flying sword that is only two fingers wide, it feels like if you don't stand firmly, you will fall down.
He can only comfort himself: I won't die if I fall down.
Only in this way can he calm down.
He reminded: "Elder Xu, you seem to be speeding."
Elder Xu curled his lips: "When you become an elder, you will understand that rules cannot restrain the strong."
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure suddenly blocked their way.
Elder Xu braked urgently.
The person blocking the road was a foundation-building disciple wearing the uniform of the Law Enforcement Hall.
He said in a deep voice: "Elder, you are speeding."
Elder Xu casually took out a bag of spirit stones from his storage bag and threw it over: "Don't change the extra ones, save them for the next fine."
After that, the flying sword accelerated again and took Li Xiuchang all the way out of the sect.
Elder Xu said, "See? When you become a strong man and have a lot of spirit stones to pay the fine, this rule will not bind you."
Li Xiuchang:...
He could only nod: "What the elder said makes sense."
Then he brought the topic back on track and asked, "Where are we going now?"
Elder Xu explained, "We have been controlling the Black Soul Sect's base there, and the Black Soul Sect has not discovered any abnormalities, so as to obtain information from the Black Soul Sect.
"At present, we only know that the Black Soul Sect has arranged a Foundation Establishment Envoy to meet at the Jiufeng Temple Ruins near Xianyin according to the instructions of the Blood Flower Sect, but it is still uncertain whether that is the final meeting place.
"The Blood Flower Sect just said that the Black Soul Sect's envoy should go there and wait for the next instructions."
Xianyin... Li Xiuchang had heard of the name of Xianyin a long time ago, and even this world was named after Xianyin. He always felt that the place was very unusual.
I didn't expect that we would go to the vicinity of Xianyin this time.
"So are we going directly to the Jiufeng Temple Ruins now?" Li Xiuchang asked.
Elder Xu shook his head: "The sect has already sent people to check the ruins of Jiufeng Temple, and there are even elders stalking nearby, but nothing has been found yet.
"Our current plan is to intercept the Black Soul envoy near Jiufeng Temple and let you pretend to be him to enter the ruins of Jiufeng Temple.
"Or wait for the Black Soul envoy to enter Jiufeng Temple and get new instructions, and then replace him with you.
"The details will depend on the situation at that time."
Li Xiuchang nodded slightly and asked again: "Elder, are you in a hurry?"
Elder Xu was stunned: "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I just want to say that if you are not in a hurry, we can change to my flying boat."
"Indeed, you are not in a hurry, but why should you change? Your flying boat is not as fast as my flying sword. "
"Flying tools should not only pursue speed."
"Then what are you pursuing?"
"You'll know after you sit on my flying boat."
A moment later, when Elder Xu sat in Li Xiuchang's top-grade magic weapon flying boat and experienced the all-round wrapping of the soft seat, he finally agreed with Li Xiuchang's point of view.
"Where can I buy this flying boat? I'll buy one later."
"You can just go to a disciple named Wang Long from the outer sect and order it."
The two of them sat in the flying boat, comfortable and quiet, and could finally talk about the details of the operation.
Elder Xu handed a jade slip to Li Xiuchang and said, "This contains all the information we have collected about the Black Soul Sect, in case your secret is revealed when you pretend to be an envoy."
Li Xiuchang read it carefully and took note of it.
He also took the opportunity to ask for some other information.
"What kind of place is Fairy Shadow and how was it formed?"
Elder Xu shook his head: "I don't know, I've never been there."
Li Xiuchang looked unbelieving. How could he resist visiting such a famous place?
Elder Xu explained: "It is said that Immortal Shadow is rich in resources and contains many unique spiritual plants and mineral deposits, but there are also dangers hidden in it.
“Many people have ventured into Immortal Shade, some strong ones never came back, and some weak ones escaped unscathed, and even gained a lot.
"Exploring in the Immortal Shadow depends more on luck than strength. The Supreme Elder in the sect often warns us not to set foot in the Immortal Shadow. If we are not lucky, we will encounter unexpected events."
So that's it... Li Xiuchang became even more curious about Xian Yin.
But it’s best to stay away from this weird place.
"Then where is the ruins of Jiufeng Temple?" Li Xiuchang asked about the destination of his trip.
"Jiufeng Temple was a famous Buddhist power when Buddhism and Taoism were prosperous. However, with the decline of Buddhism and Taoism, Jiufeng Temple has become a thing of the past, leaving only dilapidated temple ruins to prove its existence."
"Last question, are the elder and I alone on this trip?"
Li Xiuchang still remembered that Elder Xu had promised that at least a dozen elders would be nearby to protect his safety.
Elder Xu smiled when he heard this and said, "You can look above your head and then behind you."
Li Xiuchang turned around and looked up at the sky, only to see a dozen figures suddenly appear in the sky that was empty just a moment ago.
Li Xiuchang was startled when he realized that so many people were quietly following them.
Needless to say, these must be strong men from the Fairy Dust Sect, protecting them.
Li Xiuchang immediately felt relieved and felt full of security.
The flying boat flew all the way, and when it was about to reach Jiufeng Temple, Elder Xu received the news from the front.
He frowned and said: "The elders of the sect discovered the traces left by the powerful Blood Demon Dao near Jiufeng Temple, and went all the way into the Immortal Shadow. They suspected that the demon leader of the Blood Flower Sect was leaning against the Immortal Shadow and monitoring the activities in the Jiufeng Temple. .
"In this case, I can only ask you to replace the envoy of the Black Soul Sect before entering Jiufeng Temple."
Elder Xu said with a solemn expression: "After entering Jiufeng Temple, you must be careful. It would be fine if you were in other places, but Jiufeng Temple is backed by Immortal Shadow...
"These demonic scum are really cunning. They chose to meet near the fairy shade just to make us worry!
"In short, please remember that no matter what happens, don't leave the confines of Jiufeng Temple, especially don't enter the fairy shade. As long as you don't enter the fairy shade, we can ensure your safety."
Li Xiuchang nodded solemnly.
The demon leader of the Blood Flower Sect is hiding in the Immortal Shadow, monitoring the movements of Jiufeng Temple, so that the elders of the Immortal Dust Sect cannot take action against him unless they venture into the Immortal Shadow.
But as soon as they enter the Immortal Shadow, the fate is unpredictable. It is not just relying on strength and numerical advantage that they will definitely be able to take down the Blood Flower Cult demon.
If they are unlucky, the elders of the Immortal Dust Sect may also be destroyed in the Immortal Shadow.
Elder Xu took out one thing after another from the storage bag, introduced the usage and purpose one by one, and then handed it to Li Xiuchang.
"This is an eighth-level amulet. If you keep it close to your body, it will be automatically triggered when you encounter danger."
"This protective jade pendant is a middle-grade spiritual treasure. If you wear it around your neck, when you are in danger, as long as you inject a little magic power, it can support you with a layer of protective shield, which can block the full blow of the Taoist monk! "
"This substitute puppet, placed on the chest, can bear the fatal blow for you!"
"This colorful wishful thinking..."
Li Xiu often refused to accept anyone who came, and wore all these life-saving treasures on his body.
He picked up a slightly dented round iron piece and said, "Elder, forget about this cup size. It's not suitable for a male cultivator like me."
"This is a breast shield!"
"Okay." Li Xiuchang obediently put the magic heart mirror on his left chest.
After a while, under the instruction of Elder Xu, the flying boat stopped.
Elder Xu said: "The elders of the sect have discovered the whereabouts of the Black Soul Sect envoy and confirmed that no one is secretly providing protection. The arrest is about to be carried out. Please prepare yourself and I will take over immediately."
"Okay." Li Xiuchang took out the rainbow soul flag, released the Yin Qi accumulated in the soul flag, and then produced black energy to make himself look full of demonic energy.
"What are you doing?"
"Practice to make yourself look more like a demon cultivator."
"You don't have to practice, you already look alike. If you try to act it out again, it will be worse than going too far. Nowadays, demon cultivators are careful to hide their identities so as not to let others see their identity as demon cultivators."
Li Xiu often wanted to say that he didn't look like a bad guy at first glance, but when he thought about the demon cultivator Fan Liang in his rainbow soul flag, that guy looked more like a good guy.
After a while, a Taoist nun wearing a tight-fitting Taoist robe flew over with a middle-aged man in hand.
Elder Xu introduced the Taoist nun to Li Xiuchang: "This is Elder Liu of the sect."
Li Xiu often saw that Elder Liu still had charm, and the charm of a mature woman almost overflowed.
Elder Liu threw the middle-aged man in his hand to the ground and said, "This is the envoy of the Black Soul Sect. I have already interrogated him."
Elder Xu asked: "Has he recruited them all?"
Li Xiuchang glanced at the Black Soul Sect demon cultivator on the ground and saw that his legs were trembling, his face was devoid of blood, and his eyes were hollow with fear... He thought that Elder Xu didn't even need to ask this question. In this state, it must be Everything that needs to be done has been done.
But don’t mention it. This demon cultivator looks fair-faced, soft-featured, and gentle. He doesn’t look like a demon cultivator at all.
Co-author: Nowadays, deceptive looks are popular among demon cultivators and they all look like good people?
Elder Liu, who was dressed as a Taoist nun, nodded and said: "His name is Tang Yan. He doesn't know much. He is just arranged by the Black Soul Sect to run errands. There is no one to even protect him. The Black Soul Sect is already ready to sacrifice him.
"The Black Soul Sect just asked him to follow the instructions of the Blood Flower Sect and go to the third peak of Jiufeng Temple. As for what to do there, he didn't know. It all depends on the arrangements of the Blood Flower Sect.
"He has never dealt with the other three major demonic forces. It is not difficult to impersonate him. There is no need to worry about being found out when he meets someone he knows."
Elder Xu nodded: "That's good. It just so happens that you are building foundation cultivation again. Xiu Chang, you are now Tang Yan, and it will be up to you later."
Elder Liu handed a token and a storage bag to Li Xiuchang: "This is the identity token of the Black Soul Sect. It was found from Tang Yan. Please take it with you.
"In the storage bag are Tang Yan's magical weapons, which contain various magic talismans. The magical weapons also contain the ghosts and ghosts he drives every day, which should be of some help to your disguise."
"Thank you, Elder Liu." Li Xiuchang reached out and took it.
Immediately, Elder Liu took out another bag, took Tang Yan inside, and handed the bag to Li Xiuchang.
"Isn't this the beast-taming bag commonly used by beast-masters?"
"If he can pretend to be a spiritual beast, he can also pretend to be a human being. If you take him with you, if you need him for anything, you can communicate with him directly with your spiritual consciousness. He is now unconscious and will answer whatever you ask him. ." Elder Liu said.
"Go." Elder Xu patted Li Xiuchang on the shoulder, "Don't worry, we are with you."
After he finished speaking, a dozen more figures appeared behind him. They were all the elders of the Fairy Dust Sect who had followed all the way. They said in unison: "We are with you."
