#2722 - The formation is only for killing people
Elder Zeng continued to lead the way, happily introducing the various parts of the sect along the way.
One could see that he was genuinely feeling boundless joy from the bottom of his heart.
Wasn't this a dream he had for ten thousand years? Was it about to come true now?
“Jun Shen, why are you smiling so happily?”
Mo Qingli asked secretly using divine sense.
“Because I didn’t expect that the Po Yun Immortal Sect, a small sect, the lowest level of cultivation force, would actually have rare resources.”
“Oh? What rare resources?”
Mo Qingli was puzzled. Although this place indeed had some unique aspects, with numerous earth vein branches converging.
However, these earth vein branches had become dormant due to certain reasons, basically completely inactive.
Therefore, the Po Yun Immortal Sect could only obtain extremely little Yuan Qi from the earth veins, resulting in very low benefits.
Otherwise, with their strength, how would they be qualified to possess this place?
“There is Earth Vein Source Liquid beneath this mountain.
It is precisely because of this reason that all the essence Qi gathered here from the earth veins is used to condense the Source Liquid, which is why so little Yuan Qi overflows.
The Yuan Qi derived from the earth veins has almost all transformed into Source Liquid.
The formation of Source Liquid requires years of accumulation and the sedimentation of a long period of time, leaving behind the essence of the essence.
Although the grade is not high, the quality is extremely high and very pure.
This kind of Earth Vein Source Liquid is perfectly suitable for our current realm.
Hmm, obtaining these Earth Vein Source Liquids should allow us to break through one or two minor realms.”
“There’s actually such a thing?”
Mo Qingli couldn't help but be stunned, feeling surprised in her heart, “That’s not right, I know about Earth Vein Source Liquid, and its formation conditions are extremely harsh.
Doesn't it only exist in Dragon Vein lands?
Although many earth veins converge here, there is no Dragon Vein.
The level of these earth veins is far from the grade of a Dragon Vein, how could Earth Vein Source Liquid form… …
“If I’m not mistaken, this place was originally a place where a Dragon Vein was entrenched.
A hidden Dragon Vein was hidden here a long time ago.
Later, after experiencing certain changes, the Dragon Vein disappeared, not knowing where it went.
This is also the reason why so many earth veins converge here.
When the earth veins arrive here, they will follow the special terrain and field to evolve towards the Dragon Vein.
However, it is obviously impossible for the earth veins to evolve into a Dragon Vein, so the essence of the earth veins has all turned into Earth Vein Source Liquid.
It is also because this place is a hidden Dragon land that the Dragon Seeking Technique cannot see any clues.
Only the Primordial Talisman Dao can glimpse its truth.
Otherwise, the Earth Vein Source Liquid would have been taken away long ago.
Although its grade is not high, it excels in being an extremely special resource that can help cultivators quickly improve their realm, a hundred times better than ordinary resources.
Therefore, even major forces are very eager for this type of resource, as it is an excellent item for nurturing outstanding young talents.”
“So that’s how it is, Jun Shen is truly blessed with great luck, able to encounter opportunities wherever he goes.”
Mo Qingli naturally understood the preciousness of the Earth Vein Source Liquid.
Just as Jun Shen said, its grade is not high, but its rarity is too high, and it can be called a peerless treasure.
All major forces are very eager for this kind of thing, using it to cultivate outstanding young talents of the younger generation, so as to widen the gap in realm between their own outstanding talents and those of other forces.
On the path of cultivation, competition among contemporaries, a step ahead often leads to step-by-step advantage, which is so cruel and realistic.
After all, if the strength of contemporary competitors is similar, suddenly widening the gap by one or two or more realms allows them to suppress others completely during future competitions.
Competing for opportunities will gain the upper hand, allowing them to obtain more opportunities and resources, so the gap in strength will only continue to widen.
It will be very difficult for those who fall behind to catch up, unless they have even greater luck and can obtain more great opportunities than their competitors, otherwise it will be impossible to catch up.
Of course, it is not that if the realm is behind, it will be absolutely impossible to catch up.
There are always some particularly amazing people in the world, whose own abilities combined with prosperous luck, possess a heaven-defying growth rate, and even if their realm is far behind, they may be able to catch up within a period of time, or even achieve a reversal.
But that is, after all, a minority, and not what most geniuses can do.
Thinking like this, they followed Elder Zeng to the entrance of the Po Yun Immortal Sect's main hall.
A group of people walked out from inside, led by an old man in his sixties, who looked quite like an immortal.
No matter how you look at it, the first impression that the people of this Po Yun Immortal Sect give is very good.
However, you can't judge people by their appearance alone.
“Presumably, you two are Yuan Chu and Fairy Su?
I have already heard about your matter.
Two rogue cultivators, trapped for ten thousand years, breaking free in one day, it is truly arduous.
Fortunately, those things are already in the past.
From today onwards, you will be the protectors of my Po Yun Immortal Sect.
These are the sect tokens and clothing.”
The Po Yun Sect Leader said with a smile.
He looked at Jun Wuxie and Mo Qingli with a warm expression, and the smile on his face gradually deepened.
That's right, these two people are indeed only in the Legendary Realm.
This is very good. Since they are in the Legendary Realm, then they should be relatively easy to control.
“Then thank you very much, Sect Leader.”
Jun Wuxie and Mo Qingli accepted the tokens and clothing, and then followed the Po Yun Sect Leader into the main hall.
“Now that you two are protectors of my Immortal Sect.
From now on, we are our own people.
Regarding the past of the two of you, as the Sect Leader of the Immortal Sect, I still have to understand it.
I hope you don't mind.
The two of you are rogue cultivators and have been trapped for ten thousand years. I won't ask about your past, it's too long ago, and it's meaningless for me to understand those things.
What I want to know is, how were you trapped back then, and where were you trapped for ten thousand years?”
The Po Yun Sect Leader had already determined in his heart that they were trapped in the Great Tomb Fortress, but he pretended not to know and deliberately inquired.
“This… …”
Jun Wuxie pondered, as if somewhat embarrassed.
“Yuan Chu, you are now a high-level member of the Immortal Sect, and the Immortal Sect should understand part of your past.
Moreover, the Sect Leader is also concerned about you.”
Elder Zeng said from the side.
“It’s not that I don’t want to say it, but that I don’t want to mention those past events that we want to forget.
Since the Sect Leader asked, then I will simply talk about it.
Back then, I met Qing Qian by chance and learned that we were both rogue cultivators, so we traveled together.
Soon after, we went to White Sand Ancient Town and heard about the Great Tomb Fortress.
You also know that rogue cultivators have a difficult life and cultivation is not easy.
It is said that the Great Tomb Fortress hides opportunities and good fortune.
We thought it would be better to give it a try. Although it was risky, if we succeeded, the road ahead would be much easier.
So we secretly entered the Great Tomb Fortress.
Fortunately, I know a little about the field terrain, so I can go deeper than others.
Unexpectedly, because of this, I was trapped inside.
At that time, I chose the wrong path. For ten thousand years, I have repeatedly thought about it and deduced it.
If I had chosen another path at that time, perhaps this would not have happened.”
“Oh? You were actually trapped in the Great Tomb Fortress?”
Several people pretended to be very shocked, but they thought in their hearts, as expected, it was exactly the same as they guessed.
“That Great Tomb Fortress is not a good place. Since ancient times, I don’t know how many people have gone in and never come out again.
Yuan Chu, you are really capable!
But you are right about one thing.
There are great opportunities and good fortune in the Great Tomb Fortress.
Putting aside the danger, if anyone obtains one or two of those opportunities and good fortune, they can soar to the sky.
Last time, you two were too weak and alone, and your own strength was not enough to deal with the various dangers inside.
Now it's different, you have joined our Po Yun Immortal Sect.
You are no longer two people fighting.
Let us re-enter the Great Tomb Fortress together and take the opportunities inside into our possession.
At that time, the Immortal Sect can flourish, and you, Yuan Chu, with your aptitude, your cultivation will also advance by leaps and bounds, and you may become a hegemon in the future!”
“Sect Leader, the Great Tomb Fortress has been lonely for ten thousand years, and we have suffered extremely. We don’t want to have such an experience again.”
“Yuan Chu, don’t be discouraged, you can’t have such thoughts.
How can a cultivator be like this?
Cultivation is going against the heavens, daring to face dangers and difficulties, and seeking opportunities and good fortune in danger.
At that time, you were weak and alone, but now we have us, plus your unique skills, we will definitely be safe and sound.”
“No, I don’t want to experience it again, and I don’t want Qing Qian to experience such suffering and pain again.
Sect Leader, let’s not mention this matter.”
“Yuan Chu, don’t be resistant first, think about it carefully, don’t rush to refuse.
How about you give us an answer tomorrow?”
“Alright.”
Jun Wuxie nodded.
“Elder Zeng, take Yuan Chu and Fairy Su to rest.”
The Sect Leader said gently.
“Yes.”
… …
Looking at the distant figures of Jun Wuxie and Mo Qingli, the smile on the Po Yun Sect Leader's face gradually disappeared, replaced by gloom.
“Doesn’t know how to appreciate favors!”
He clenched his palm tightly, his eyes as sharp as knives.
“Sect Leader, if he refuses again tomorrow… …”
“Refuses again? Of course he will refuse.
His refusal just now was very firm, how could it change overnight?”
As he spoke, he took out an object from his arms.
It looked very old, like a bell.
“Sect Leader, what is this? It looks like a magic weapon?”
The eyes of several elders beside him instantly focused on the black bell, and they couldn't help but feel a burst of palpitations.
Mysterious Qi emanated from the bell, causing them to feel mentally unstable, and they couldn't help but be shocked.
“How terrifying, what exactly is this!”
Obviously, although these elders were high-level members of the Po Yun Immortal Sect, they had never seen this weapon before, and they didn't even know that the Sect Leader possessed such a terrifying magic weapon.
“The Soul-Seizing Bell can control a person's soul and imbue it with a new will.”
“This… it’s actually so terrifying!”
Several elders were shocked, “Since the Sect Master has this treasure in hand, why did you let them leave just now? You could have directly used the Soul-Seizing Bell to control them.”
“Better safe than sorry.
Anyway, they can't escape from the sect.
After all, those two survived in the Great Tomb for ten thousand years and came out alive.
We don't know what life-saving means they have.
Although they are only in the Legendary Realm, we still have to be careful.
What if they use their trump cards and run away?
Therefore, don't push them too hard, let them relax.
Tonight, when they are most unguarded, I will suddenly use the Soul-Seizing Bell to envelop their residence and control them, ensuring complete success.”
“Sect Master is wise and thoughtful, it was our oversight.
Indeed, since they were able to come out alive, they must have life-saving means that we don't know about.
Only by attacking unexpectedly can we guarantee complete success.
This matter concerns the fortune of our sect, whether we can become a great power in the future, so we must not be careless and must prevent any accidents from happening.”
“By the way, I estimate that it won't be long before the higher-ups of other immortal sects come to demand people.
What should we do then?”
“Don't worry, this is our immortal sect, our home ground.
Even if they join forces, they won't dare to fall out with us in our immortal sect.”
… …
At this time, Jun Wuxie and Mo Qingli were already in the residence arranged for them by the Po Yun Immortal Sect.
This was a valley on the mountain, very quiet and with a good environment.
Elder Zeng had already left, and only the two of them were here.
“Lord Jun, what exactly is your plan? It seems to have changed from our previous plan?”
“That's right, the plan has to be adjusted according to the changes in the situation.
The initial plan was to make a move outside the city.
But that was based on the fact that the relationship between them was not so tense.
Now, the higher-ups of other immortal sects are on their way to the Po Yun Immortal Sect, and we should make good use of this.
In this way, we can achieve our goals without having to take action ourselves and expose our strength, and we can also make this Po Yun Immortal Sect disappear from this world.”
“What is Lord Jun's plan?”
Mo Qingli was intrigued by her.
How can these goals be achieved without taking action personally?
“I'll tell you later, you brew some tea first, I'm a little thirsty.”
“Okay.”
Mo Qingli immediately took out a set of tea utensils and started brewing tea.
Jun Wuxie walked around the valley.
Every time his footsteps landed, patches of golden runes submerged deep into the earth.
These runes went to a very deep underground, and then went around, distributed in various locations on this mountain, deriving endless runes, intertwined into a rune array.
Mo Qingli watched him quietly while brewing tea.
By the time she had brewed the tea, Jun Wuxie had also returned.
“Was Lord Jun setting up an array just now?”
Mo Qingli picked up the teapot, poured a cup of hot tea and put it in front of him, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.
Jun Wuxie picked up the tea, blew on it gently, took a sip, and said, “You don’t seem like the Mo Qingli who is usually as still as water.”
She was slightly startled, “Qingli is only like this in front of Lord Jun. Lord Jun always arouses Qingli’s curiosity.
After all, Lord Jun is the most amazing person in the heavens, and his methods are often unexpected.
Even Qingli can't help but feel curious because of this.”
“That's right, I was indeed setting up an array just now.”
“Is Lord Jun setting up the array to get the Earth Vein Source Liquid?”
Jun Wuxie shook his head, “Not so, setting up the array is only for killing people.
The questions in your heart will soon be answered, so don't worry, just wait quietly.”
Mo Qingli stopped talking.
But she couldn't help but wonder, who is Lord Jun going to kill with this rune array?
In this Po Yun Immortal Sect, if you want to kill someone, I'm afraid it's only the people of the Po Yun Immortal Sect.
But if you want to kill the people of the Po Yun Immortal Sect, why set up an array? It would be better to just take action directly.
Besides, Lord Jun shouldn't kill the people of the Po Yun Immortal Sect.
Otherwise, if the Po Yun Immortal Sect is destroyed, what will the world guess when this matter is spread?
Wouldn't that be just right to suspect me and Lord Jun?
This is not conducive to hiding our strength, Lord Jun should not do this.
