Mortal: Start from doubling time
Chapter 287: Strange Things
Chapter 287: Strange Things
“You are Mr. Yan, right? I have come to greet you specially. Senior and young master, please follow me.”
A disciple from Bailu Academy stepped forward and saluted the man in the Confucian robe and the White Demon Lord.
His behavior is appropriate, and he has reached the third level of Qi training.
You have to know that from the surface, there was no fluctuation of magical power on the body of the cultivator named Yan, but the other party still respected him so much. He must have seen him before and knew his origins.
“Good work!”
The monk named Yan smiled and thanked him, then followed behind with the White Demon Lord.
Walking through several unique courtyards, many clear reading sounds came, just like a large-scale private school in the mortal world. As a sect of cultivating immortals, this move made Bai Tian Mojun very curious. He thought that the idea of traveling to Da Jin was completely correct, otherwise he would not have seen this kind of cultivation method.
The sound of reading was also heard by the Demon Lord, who suddenly spoke for no reason.
“The sounds made by these scholars remind me of your main soul.”
“It’s not that reading is useless, but that you read useless books. Now it seems to be a classic saying. It is amazing that a seemingly simple reading can reveal such profound mysteries.”
The Demon Lord exclaimed with emotion.
Now it seems that the other party was right.
The right thing to do is not to study for the sake of studying, but to use reading to enter the spiritual realm and embark on the path of cultivating immortals.
This statement came out.
The Demon Lord Baitian raised his eyebrows but did not respond.
Coincidentally, when he entered Bailu Academy, Hu Lao Mo, Che Lao Yao and others from the Dajin Demon Sect received shocking news.
“What? Many cultivators in Chaos Star Sea are missing? Even most of the mortals are gone?”
“Strange! Wasn’t Chaos Star Sea fine before? Where did those people go? Were they sacrificed?” Hu Lao Mo said in shock. Logically speaking, Chaos Star Sea has a powerful Star Palace Master in charge. Unless the monks from the Demon Realm and the Spirit Realm took action, how could those people disappear inexplicably?
The reporter was Yu Fatian, who had appeared in Tiannan before and was the leader of the Tianmo Sect who was in the late Nascent Soul stage.
“Elder, this is very strange! I personally led people to check it out and found that it was true. There was no sign of a major battle in the Chaos Star Sea, let alone any traces of blood sacrifice. We followed the Six Paths Supreme Saint and returned to the Chaos Star Sea to find that the Star Palace had long been deserted.”
“What’s even more abominable is that the few good places for cultivation in Chaos Star Sea have all been moved away by people using great magical powers! It has become an ordinary place for cultivation, suitable only for Jindan cultivators. It is impossible to find a suitable place for cultivation above Yuanying. In a rage, Lord Six Paths Supreme Saint directly destroyed the Star Palace!”
The leader of the Demonic Sect said with a serious expression.
I don’t know who is so bold and powerful.
He actually emptied the Chaos Star Sea.
Although it had no effect on the low-level cultivators, the Six Paths Supreme Saints, who wanted to restore their former glory, were extremely angry and vowed to find the culprit, extract his soul, refine his spirit, and grind his bones to ashes.
After confirming that Chaos Star Sea was no longer valuable, the Six Paths Supreme Saint, who had merged with Yuan Sha’s soul, returned to Da Jin with reluctance and had to continue plotting Kunwu Mountain. However, Kunwu Mountain was now the focus of contention between the righteous and the evil, and masters from the spirit world had also descended, making it extremely difficult to obtain it.
“Is this really true? How strange!”
“Could it be the Lord of the Star Palace who did this? But does he have that ability? Could it be that a master from the spirit world was dispatched?”
Che Laoyao felt a little regretful after hearing this.
If it was really done by the cultivators in the spiritual world, then he shouldn’t have joined the Demonic Alliance! He was very depressed because he missed the opportunity to return to the spiritual world with the cultivators of the human and demon races.
For a moment, several old demons expressed their determination to track down the perpetrator.
Let’s see who this daring and powerful person is.
Bai Tian Mo Jun was unaware of all this, and only wanted to recover his strength as soon as possible, enter the spirit world or the demon world, and cultivate to a higher level.
After passing through several courtyards, we arrived at a core location of Bailu Academy.
“We’ll go in through the side door. The main door will only be opened during important events.” The young disciple at the third level of Qi training, along with Bai Tian Mojun and the monk surnamed Yan, entered the formal training area through the side door.
Compared to the outside, the scenery in the core area is more beautiful.
The rich spiritual energy suitable for cultivation came to his face, which made Bai Tian Mojun feel good. Because of the formation barrier, the inside and outside were two different worlds. The spiritual energy of the academy outside was thin and almost unsuitable for cultivation. Although the spiritual energy inside could not meet the requirements of the late Nascent Soul stage, it was still a good spiritual vein if there were a large number of spiritual stones to assist.
“Your academy is indeed a treasured place for cultivation. These spiritual trees are rarely seen!”
The three of them came to a beautiful place that looked like a forest garden. Monk Yan stood in front of a sacred tree full of flowers and exclaimed in admiration. He was not from Bailu Academy, but from outside.
“Thank you for the compliment, sir. This is all thanks to our ancestors.”
The young disciple was very low-key. He just said a few words and then continued to lead the way.
Passing through a colorful and gorgeous place with several rockeries, we arrived at a courtyard gate after many twists and turns. The gate was purple, and the surrounding walls were painted white. Through learning on the road, Bai Tian Mojun heard that the sects in this spiritual vein all belonged to the style of worldly cultivation. They often entered the mortal world to train and exorcise demons.
Occasionally you can see Taoist priests and Buddhist ascetic monks.
“Please wait for a moment, my two guests. I will take my leave now.”
The Qi Refining Level 3 disciple turned and left after saying this. Bai Tian Mojun and the monk surnamed Yan stood in front of the door. After just a few breaths, the purple courtyard door creaked open and another sound came.
“Mr. Yan, please come in. We are in the yard.”
The voice was steady and enthusiastic, but Elder Lu still did not show up. Bai Tian Mojun was a little suspicious. He thought that Elder Lu and the monk surnamed Yan definitely had an unusual relationship. Even if the visitor was an ordinary guest, why didn’t he greet him at the door?
It doesn’t make sense at all!
It is even more inconsistent with the behavior of Confucian monks.
The monk named Yan didn’t care. He walked slowly into the door with a smile on his face, and the White Demon Lord walked behind him.
Entering the courtyard, I found only a few big trees, and three of my subordinates were sitting there, making tea and chatting. Two men and one woman.
The man was also middle-aged, with a fair complexion and slender eyes. His eyebrows tended to hang upside down, a bit like hanging eyebrows. He had three long strands of hair and a slightly dignified look. He did not quite match the legendary immortal style, but rather looked like a mortal Taoist priest full of worldly aura.
His Taoist robe is spotless and he is quite clean.
This is exactly what the Demon Lord during the day likes.
The other woman was dressed like a Taoist nun, wearing a two-color Taoist robe, with long black hair and skin as white as snow. She was holding a whisk that looked ordinary, but was actually a top-grade magical instrument. Her eyes were neither too big nor too small, and her facial features were regular and delicate.
She is a Taoist nun with excellent appearance and temperament.
He is about twenty years old, but has already reached the late stage of foundation building. I think he has good aptitude and should have a bright future.
The host, Elder Lu, has an ordinary appearance and nothing special about him.
He looked at the two of them with thick eyebrows and big eyes, especially lingering on Bai Tian Mo Jun for a while, with a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. Although it was very brief, Bai Tian Mo Jun easily noticed it.
The guests from Huangqing Temple also looked at Bai Tian Demon Lord a few more times.
Then the two looked at each other, but it was unclear what they were communicating with their eyes.
“Welcome Mr. Yan and your friends to visit us!”
“Hurry up and sit down to drink tea and chat. The two Taoist friends from Huangqing Temple are rare guests. Please forgive me for not being able to welcome you from afar.” Elder Lu, who looked ordinary, stood up from his chair and said with a hearty smile. He invited Bai Tian Mojun and the man in Confucian robes to sit down.
“I was wondering who the guest was. It turns out to be Brother Yan Yao from Yonghua Academy. I have heard of your great name for a long time.” The Taoist nun put away the Buddhist whisk and called out the name of the monk named Yan.
Only then did the White Demon Lord know the name and origin of the middle-aged monk.
It turns out that he is also a Confucian monk. No wonder he has such a noble aura. This makes sense.
“Haha~ I don’t deserve it! I have admired you two Taoist friends for a long time. It’s really fate that we meet today.”
“Let me introduce you. This young man is a distant relative of my old friend. He admires the style of Bailu Academy and hopes to join it as a disciple. Because the day of recruiting disciples has passed, he came to ask Elder Lu for help to see if he meets the requirements for inclusion.”
Yan Yao did not sit down, but introduced the White Demon Lord who was standing aside.
Now he only revealed the realm of the sixth level of Qi training. As a great man in the late stage of transformation, the mere foundation building and golden elixir were not worth mentioning in front of him. He just wanted to be quiet. Otherwise, if he revealed his true strength, all the sects here would treat him as a guest of honor. But in that case, trivial matters would continue.
It is not conducive to quickly recovering strength.
These words surprised the Taoist nun, Elder Lu and the other two.
In an instant, he used his scrutinizing eyes to observe the White Demon Lord, and was particularly curious about the thunder spirit energy on his body.
“So fellow Daoist, you came here for this matter. Since you want to join our Bailu Academy, do you mind if I check your qualifications for cultivation?” Elder Lu, who had an unremarkable appearance, asked with a serious face.
I am particularly interested in the qualifications of the White Demon Lord.
If we can recruit a disciple with natural spiritual roots, it will definitely be a great achievement!
For a moment, all eyes fell on the Daytime Demon Lord.
“Thank you, elder!”
The Lord of Daytime responded calmly and with great demeanor, which made people feel very satisfied at first sight.
Apart from other things, his looks and temperament alone are better than most cultivators. If he cultivates to a high level, he will surely become the dream lover of countless female cultivators and have many Taoist companions!
“Very good, I’ll take a look first.”
Elder Lu stood up and walked to the front of Bai Tian Mo Jun, motioning him to raise his wrist. Then he placed two fingers on it and cast a spell to carefully inspect and sense it.
The Demon Lord during the day remained expressionless, without any sign of nervousness.
This one doesn’t work, at most he can change to another one. There’s no need to pretend, he doesn’t have that hobby,
When the devil uses his magical powers, everything the other party sees are illusions.
Everything the other party sees is what you want him to see. The real details will not be revealed at all. Even if there are other people present, it is still easy to conceal the truth without revealing any secrets.
After looking for a while, Elder Lu showed a strange look on his face.
Several people turned their eyes away from Lord Bai Tian’s face and looked at Elder Lu curiously, wanting to know what the qualifications of the young man who was suspected to have natural spiritual roots were.
“This… Fellow Daoist Yan, you, this junior, have very bad luck! It is true that you have a thunder spirit root, but the thunder spirit power inside is very chaotic. It must be caused by improper cultivation in the past. Fortunately, you were sent to an authentic cultivation sect in time. If you continued to cultivate recklessly, you would be ruined.”
“Even so, it will take quite a while to readjust the power of the Thunder Spirit and absorb the spiritual energy to slowly assimilate and fuse it. It will take at least five years, or even more than ten years! Fortunately, after the adjustment, the speed of cultivation will definitely take off, and it is almost certain that I will advance to the Golden Core stage!”
Elder Lu finally smiled as he finished speaking.
But it’s still a pity.
This is a cultivator with natural spiritual roots!
The best time for cultivation is to be used to sort out the chaotic thunder spirit power, which is a waste. It should have been sent earlier. Fortunately, it is not too late.
“Ah! Heavenly Spiritual Roots?”
“Elder, is there any way to sort it out quickly? Let this junior learn the authentic immortal technique as soon as possible?” Yan Yao was very surprised and sighed that it was a pity.
The best time was wasted and the luck was not good.
“Really a natural spiritual root?”
The beautiful Taoist nun was surprised and also felt very sorry.
At the same time, I also understood the young man’s desire to cultivate and become an immortal, otherwise why would he practice so randomly.
The White Demon Lord lowered his head and said nothing. His silence made others think that he was disappointed and blaming himself. They had no idea that this was a thought he had already prepared. He didn’t want to be disturbed by trivial matters, so he looked for some time to practice in seclusion.
“Quick comb?”
“Treasures and elixirs that can neutralize the power of thunder spirits are extremely rare. Even our Bailu Academy doesn’t have any.”
“By the way, does your friend’s junior have any special skills? Quietly absorbing spiritual energy and the power of thunder spirits is a very boring task. If there are some special skills, you can practice them during this period.” Elder Lu has decided to make the decision on behalf of the sect and accept Bai Tian Demon Lord as a disciple of the academy.
After all, he is a natural spiritual root, it would be a pity to let him go.
If the sect’s elders knew that he refused the Heavenly Spiritual Root, he would probably lose his position as an elder!
“This one……”
Yan Yao didn’t know the White Demon Lord at all, and he was seriously injured. He was obsessed with revenge, so he just fulfilled his promise and brought the White Demon Lord here in the hope that he would be accepted.
The rest have no multiple tubes.
Just when I didn’t know how to explain, the young man took the initiative to speak.
“I have learned some basic techniques of refining equipment and I am quite interested in refining equipment.”
The Demon Lord during the day said.
From the moment he entered the room till now, no one had paid attention to the beautiful flower branch on his waist. This showed that the people present had limited knowledge of treasures, so they decided to just pick a skill to get by.
When it comes to real cultivation skills, he can beat most of the cultivators in the human world.
“Refine a weapon? This method will consume a lot of energy! In this case, you should…”
“Wait!”
Elder Lu saw that the young man was interested in refining weapons, so he decided to accept him into Bailu Academy. His future prospects are definitely unlimited. As for the auxiliary materials needed to neutralize the power of the thunder spirit, he would talk about it after he was accepted.
Unexpectedly, the Taoist nun who was in the late foundation building stage next to him suddenly interrupted Elder Lu’s words.
“Elder Lu, I have an unwelcome request.”
“If you want this disciple to enter Huangqing Temple to practice, we will give a suitable price. I wonder if the elder is willing?”
The beautiful Taoist nun suddenly said.
He was willing to snatch the Daytime Demon Lord away at any cost.
