Chapter 255: Plans can never keep up with changes
Li Xiuchang had long been accustomed to the Wuyue Sect's money-demanding style, and paid the spirit stones very straightforwardly.
However, he also recorded this account in the little notebook in his heart.
The flying boat flew towards the Yanxue Demon Sect, and there was no conversation along the way.
"The Holy Sect is ahead. We will only send you to the gate and pick you up in a month. Prepare the travel expenses by then." An elder of the Wuyue Sect said in a deep voice.
Li Xiuchang looked forward and saw a magnificent blood-red mountain, which was blood-red all over and could not see any green.
Is that mountain dyed red by blood?
Li Xiuchang looked at Senior Brother Mo beside him and saw him nodding slightly.
There are countless buildings at the foot of the mountain, and the mountain gate of the Yanxue Demon Sect is also located here.
Li Xiuchang and his group of ten Wuyue Sect disciples landed in front of the mountain gate of the Yanxue Demon Sect, and immediately someone from the Yanxue Demon Sect came forward to verify their identities.
Compared with the verification of Wuyue Sect when entering the sect, the Yanxue Demon Sect is much stricter.
They had to check their spiritual consciousness fluctuations, ask a series of information, and check all their identity credentials before they were allowed to enter.
Of course, it could also be because they were disciples from the outer sect. If they were from the Flame Blood Demon Sect, there wouldn't be so many procedures.
Li Xiuchang took the opportunity to observe the Flame Blood Demon Sect's protective formation and found that it was not much weaker than the Xianchen Sect's protective formation.
He couldn't help but feel fortunate that all the twists and turns and waiting since entering the Dark Heaven Realm were necessary.
If he and Senior Brother Motu had gone straight to the Flame Blood Demon Sect at the beginning and wanted to force his way in, it would definitely not work.
Even if this protective formation could be broken, it would never be silent and would definitely be noticed by the people of the Flame Blood Demon Sect.
Li Xiuchang and Motu both had clear identities now, and they passed the identity verification of the Flame Blood Demon Sect without any accidents and entered smoothly.
After the two elders of the Wu Yue Sect sent them in, they left on the flying boat.
The elite disciples of Wuyue Sect, who were so arrogant outside, immediately became restrained when they entered Yanxue Demon Sect, and their bodies were straight.
Only Li Xiuchang and Motu were very relaxed, observing everything around them.
A male disciple of Yanxue Demon Sect wearing a blood-colored Taoist robe was responsible for welcoming them. He had a smile on his face, but there was a contempt in his eyes that was not difficult to detect.
The male disciple said: "I am Lu Zhaohai, an inner disciple of Yanxue Demon Sect. You will study in my Yanxue Demon Sect for the next month, and all the procedures will be arranged by me."
"Please take care of me, Senior Brother Lu."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Lu."
Several Wuyue Sect disciples immediately flattered him.
Lu Zhaohai nodded slightly and said: "This month, I will take you to visit the Blood Mountain Volcano of my Yanxue Demon Sect and experience the effect of practicing the Blood Flame Earth Vein. Of course, this Blood Flame Earth Vein is more suitable for Blood Demon Dao cultivators. If any of you practice Soul Demon Dao, you may not be able to bear it."
As soon as he finished speaking, several Wuyue Sect disciples looked at Li Xiuchang and Motu.
Among the ten Wuyue Sect disciples who came this time, only Li Xiuchang and two others were soul demon cultivators.
Li Xiuchang said with regret: "It's a pity that I can't practice. I'll just take it as a trip to see the world."
Lu Zhaohai laughed and said: "That's fine. It's rare for you to come to my Yanxue Demon Sect. Naturally, I can't let you come in vain. My Yanxue Demon Sect also has a soul prison pool with many ghosts in it. You can catch two back with your ability.
"In addition, you can also borrow books and jade slips in the Demonic Scripture Pavilion in the outer sect. The outer sect can be visited at will. Just remember that you are not allowed to go to the Blood Mountain Mountain without the guidance of an inner sect disciple!"
The Yanxue Demon Sect is also divided into inner and outer sects, but the outer sect disciples all live at the foot of the mountain. Only the inner sect disciples can live on the Blood Mountain Mountain.
Next, Lu Zhaohai arranged accommodation for Li Xiuchang and others.
Their residence is of course also in the outer sect, that is, at the foot of the mountain.
"You have come from a long way, and you should rest for a day and adjust your state. I will take you up the mountain tomorrow. "Lu Zhaohai left after saying this.
Li Xiuchang and Motu entered the residence, first set up a formation to isolate the spiritual consciousness, and then contacted Chen Changsheng with a sound transmission talisman, and learned that Chen Changsheng was already in place.
"Brother, when do we start?" Li Xiuchang asked.
Motu pondered for a moment and said, "The top masters of the Flame and Blood Demon Sect should all live on the top of the Blood Fire Mountain, or inside the Blood Fire Mountain. After we visit the Blood Fire Mountain and figure out the top and internal environment of the Blood Fire Mountain, we will make the next plan. "
"Okay." Li Xiuchang nodded, and then asked, "Brother, can you see what the Blood Fire Mountain is?"
"It should be a special earth vein, similar to a spiritual vein. Ordinary spiritual veins only contain huge spiritual energy, and this spiritual vein should contain fire attribute spiritual energy, which is only suitable for practitioners who practice fire attribute skills to absorb. Now that the blood attribute has been integrated, it should be that the Flame and Blood Demon Sect has transformed the spiritual vein through some means. ”
Li Xiuchang suddenly realized: "I have heard that the practice of the Yanxue Demon Sect has the dual attributes of blood and fire. They actually transformed the spiritual veins for this purpose, which is also a big deal."
Motu absorbed some spiritual energy and analyzed: "This spiritual energy is most suitable for the practice of blood and fire dual attribute. Pure blood demons can also use it for practice. Although they will not cultivate fire attributes, they can temporarily give the magic power some characteristics of fire attributes, and the explosive power will be improved. However, for non-blood demons, it is indeed not suitable for absorption. "
Li Xiuchang didn't care, anyway, he never practiced.
As for the Yuanying AFK practice, you can directly borrow the power of heaven and earth, or use spirit stones for supply, but you don't have to absorb local spiritual energy.
That night, the two of them went to the Demonic Scripture Pavilion of the outer sect of the Flame Blood Demon Sect and looked through the books and materials there.
As one of the five major demon sects, the books and materials collected by the Flame Blood Demon Sect contain knowledge and information on all aspects of the Dark Heaven Realm, which is far more detailed than what Chen Changsheng knew.
However, there was no "confidential" information they needed.
They didn't have much hope at first, and they mainly came to learn about the history of the Dark Heaven Realm.
"It seems that the confidential information of the Flame Blood Demon Sect should be in the inner sect. Let's find out the layout of the inner sect tomorrow."
The two did not dare to use their spiritual sense to explore directly. If there was really an old monster sitting on the mountain, they would be discovered as soon as their spiritual sense came into contact.
...
The next day, Lu Zhaohai called ten people from the Wu Yue Sect early in the morning and took them to the mountain for a visit.
When he walked into the Blood Mountain Fire from a close distance, Li Xiuchang discovered that there was only no green on the mountain, but there were plants.
There were various strange red plants growing on the Blood Mountain Fire.
At a glance, they were all spiritual plants for the Blood Demon Cultivators to use.
Li Xiuchang and his companions were told that it was forbidden to pick or destroy any spiritual plants on the mountain.
When they reached the middle of the mountain, the people of Wuyue Sect were all amazed, feeling the rich spiritual energy here.
Bumpkin... Li Xiuchang cursed in his heart, what's the big deal about this little spiritual energy?
It's far inferior to the spiritual vein room of Xianchen Sect.
Lu Zhaohai said: "In the next month, you can practice in the practice room on the mountainside, but today I will take you to the top of the mountain for a tour, so that you won't say that you practiced in my Yanxue Demon Sect for a month, but you never saw the whole picture of my Yanxue Demon Sect."
Li Xiuchang and Motu both cheered up and walked all the way to the middle of the mountain. Although there were many buildings along the way, most of them were the residences of inner disciples, as well as practice rooms, medicinal fields and other places.
No place like the "Book Collection Pavilion" was found.
No high-level members of Yanxue Demon Sect were seen.
Continuing to walk towards the top of the mountain, the surrounding area gradually became more red mist.
The entire top of the Blood Volcano was shrouded in red mist, like the red veil on a bride's head.
Occasionally, they would pass by some buildings, but some of them would be introduced by Lu Zhaohai, while others would not.
For those buildings that were not introduced, Mo Tu would spread his spiritual sense in a small area and investigate.
Most of them were places used to store resources, such as the Dan room for storing elixirs, the pharmacy for storing spiritual herbs and medicines, the magic weapon warehouse for storing magic weapons, etc.
Li Xiuchang remembered them one by one, and studied how to break the formations in these places.
"I found the library!" Mo Tu transmitted a voice to Li Xiuchang.
Li Xiuchang looked at a tall building that looked like a big chimney, and thought to himself that a building can't be judged by its appearance. He thought it was a kitchen.
Finally, they climbed to the top of the Blood Volcano.
Both Li Xiuchang and Mo Tu gathered their spiritual senses and concealed their own auras, suspecting that this might be the residence of the old monster of the Flame Blood Demon Sect.
Lu Zhaohai also whispered, "This mountaintop is where the elders of the sect retreat. You should keep quiet and don't make any noise!"
Everyone was silent.
At this time, they finally saw the scenery of the mountaintop of the Blood Volcano.
This is indeed a volcano, and they are now on the edge of the crater.
From the crater, hot steam rises, forming the red mist around it.
But along with the mist, there is also a huge amount of spiritual energy!
"If you can practice here all year round, how fast will your cultivation level improve!" The disciples of Wu Yue Sect all looked envious.
Lu Zhaohai's eyes flashed with ridicule and a hint of complacency.
He can get a sense of superiority and satisfaction from these poor sect disciples.
"Follow me, I'll take you around this mountaintop."
As soon as Lu Zhaohai finished speaking, his face suddenly changed and he looked into the crater.
The speed of the gushing red mist suddenly increased, and the blood-red magma in the volcano could be vaguely seen!
"Brother Lu, what's going on? Is the volcano erupting?" A Wu Yue Sect disciple asked in panic.
Lu Zhaohai didn't want to pay attention to him, but just stepped back a few steps.
Around the crater, luxurious palaces and mansions opened one after another, and elders flew out of them, bowing towards the crater and saying: "Welcome the ancestor out of retreat!"
Motu and Li Xiuchang looked serious.
The bloody magma suddenly erupted, and a dwarf with a bare head and a bloody beard stood on the top of the magma, and was lifted by the magma to fly directly above the crater.
The dwarf looked around and finally fixed his eyes on Motu. When he spoke, his voice was like a child who had not changed his voice:
"Fellow Daoist He Fang came to visit my Yanxue Demon Sect, and didn't inform me in advance!"
After all, plans can't keep up with changes.
