Chapter 117: Amazing Fame
"Oh, there are already so many people here. It seems that we came at the right time. At least we can collect a lot of rare spiritual medicines. Thanks to my brother for helping me, otherwise it would be hard to say."
Old Monster Chihuo and Bai Tian and several others came to the pavilion and open space in the central area. In front of them, there were many monks gathered in the open space with green trees, singing birds and fragrant flowers, and they expressed their gratitude to Bai Tian.
Fortunately, we showed up in time during the day, otherwise it would be hard to say if we had encountered the Ghost King.
"Island Master, why don't you try the Ice and Fire Road?"
Ask as you walk during the day.
Looking up, he saw many people either chatting together, staring at the three of them, or sitting cross-legged to recover their magic power. He thought that the old monster Red Fire was proficient in fire magic and should be able to enter the hot channel with some confidence, otherwise he would not be worthy of being called the old monster Red Fire.
After hearing this, the old monster Chihuo hesitated for a moment.
"Brother, I am only interested in condensing the Nascent Soul now, so let's look for some elixirs. I want to live a few more years with my old bones. I will definitely not be able to snatch the Heaven-Burn Pill, so why bother to take the risk by going to the inner hall?" The old monster Chihuo spoke the truth, his mind full of condensing the Nascent Soul.
Not interested in anything else.
Bai Tian nodded without asking any further questions. There was no problem with the old monster Chihuo's choice.
"Brother, you don't want to go to the Ice and Fire Road? I want to give it a try." Ge Li said.
At this moment, two young disciples wearing Miaoyin Sect costumes rushed to Bai Tian and the others with excitement, and ran to Fairy Zi Ling beside them, with joy in their faces. Fairy Zi Ling did not have any close contact with Bai Tian again, but followed behind and slowly walked towards a big tree, ready to rest there.
"Junior sister, I've been looking for you everywhere. It turns out you are with the three seniors. You are so lucky. I am relieved to see you passed safely." The young man in a white robe who had reached the great perfection of foundation building was very attentive to Fairy Zi Ling and showed special concern for her.
Bai Tian was slightly stunned when he saw this. It seemed that Miaoyin Sect did not accept male disciples.
The other man also looked at Zi Ling with surprise, but when he saw the young, handsome and elegant Bai Tian, his face was full of vigilance. Especially since he couldn't see Bai Tian's state clearly, he instantly felt a lot of pressure.
"My two Taoist friends, I remember that Miaoyin Sect does not accept male disciples. What's going on?"
During the day, he asked the old monster Chihuo and decided to find out the truth. Could it be that his information was wrong? As he was talking, the three of them had already come under the big tree, sat cross-legged on the green grass, and took out the spirit stone to recover.
The old monster Chihuo was also unclear and looked at Ge Li standing beside him.
Ge Li smiled and immediately explained the reason.
"I don't know the details, but I heard that in recent years, Miaoyin Sect has been recruiting disciples to strengthen the sect. They will accept men and women who are at the foundation-building stage, and even try to win over Jindan cultivators."
"To be honest with you two, I am also a guest elder of Miaoyin Sect. I have few things to do and good benefits. You... Oh, Brother Han Li will definitely have enough. If Brother Chihuo needs a dual cultivation partner, just tell me. As long as it is a formal marriage, if there is a female disciple you like, I will help you match them up. Of course, I am not familiar with Miss Ziling, so you can find Brother Han Li yourself, hahaha~"
Ge Li laughed out loud, looking very honored.
After hearing this, Bai Tian looked at Fairy Zi Ling with a strange expression, only to see the little girl showing an unfathomable smile, which you know.
Bai Tian suddenly realized that Miaoyin Sect was recruiting disciples in such a large scale in order to find a scapegoat.
Otherwise, if too many disciples evacuated, they would definitely be exposed.
No one can find fault with recruiting more disciples and establishing new training sites in the name of expansion.
"Senior Sister Zi Ling."
At this moment, another female disciple from Miaoyin Sect came over. She was in the middle stage of foundation building. She looked so weak, but she was able to get through the land of resentful ghosts. She was really lucky.
"Junior Sister Wen Siyue, I heard that someone is always harassing you. What's going on?"
Zi Ling said to Wen Siyue who was walking over with concern.
I always felt that this name was familiar during the day, and then I remembered that it seemed to come from Kuixing Island and was related to my former junior brother Han. However, because I did not stay in Kuixing Island for too long, I did not have any intersection with Wen Siyue's family.
Ignore it during the day and sit cross-legged in meditation to restore your magic power.
When they appeared, all the cultivators from both the righteous and evil sects looked over, especially the two elders from the Star Palace, who looked very interested as they looked at Bai Tian, who had a calm expression.
There are more than a dozen Nascent Soul cultivators here, including Patriarch Ji Yin, Wan Tianming and others. In addition, there is Madam Wen holding a sword and several independent cultivators, who are said to be the strongest in recent times.
"Brother, a mysterious person sent us half-ripened longevity fruits and asked us to plot against Wan Tianming or Man Huzi. This is very strange. Who do you think is so generous? He even gave us a treasure like longevity fruits, and two of them."
An old man in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul stage, who was wearing Xinggong clothing, transmitted the message with a puzzled look on his face.
Just one year before the opening of Xutian Palace.
The two of them inexplicably received a mysterious gift, a half-ripened longevity fruit. There is a special seal in the box. As long as you open the seal and take out the treasure, the other party will know, which is equivalent to accepting the task.
The mission was simple. During the trial at the Xutian Palace, no matter if it was a sneak attack or a surprise attack, Wan Tianming and Man Huzi had to be unable to exert their full strength. The minimum requirement was that they could not use their mid-stage Nascent Soul magical powers.
The longevity fruit is a condition of exchange.
Although it was only a rare half-ripe spiritual fruit, there were not many longevity fruits in the Xutian Palace, not to mention that there were three Nascent Soul mandrills guarding it, so the price of obtaining it was a bit high. It was not a ripe fruit, so it was not worth the risk.
"Have you accepted it, brother? I haven't opened the seal yet. I decided to wait until Wan Tianming and Man Huzi are collecting elixirs. I will launch a sneak attack on them while they are fighting with the monsters. It will be easy to do as long as they suffer a temporary loss." The white-bearded Xinggong elder responded.
I decided to wait until the mission is completed before opening the seal to get the longevity fruit. If I fail, I can only return it.
After all, it is possible to send out two at a time, so you can imagine how powerful it is. It is best not to have any thoughts of embezzling them, otherwise you will be dead.
"Brother, your idea coincides with mine. How about this? You and I pretend to be the demon and righteous monks respectively, and when they are separated, we use the unique talismans of Xinggong as a cover and use our real bodies to launch a sneak attack. Especially since Wan Tianming and Man Huzi are going to the distant mountains, it is definitely a good opportunity."
Another person from Xinggong suggested.
Longevity fruit is so rare that even if it is a semi-finished product, refining it into an elixir of immortality can extend one's life by sixty to seventy years, which is equivalent to the lifetime of countless mortals. It is very attractive.
"Okay! You sneak attack Wan Tianming, and I'll go teach that barbarian a lesson. It's easy to just let them suffer temporarily. As long as you don't fight to the death, everything will be worth it!"
The two reached an agreement and did not rashly accept the longevity fruit sent by the mysterious black hand. They were more cautious. If they accepted it directly, they might have to work hard to complete the task in the Xutian Palace. It is better to be safe. If they fail to complete it, they can return it. There is not so much pressure.
Next, the two discussed who the mysterious man with the big money was.
But after thinking about it, I really can't think of who is so bold as to dislike Wan Tianming and Man Huzi at the same time. As for the Twin Saints of Tianxing, it is even more impossible. If you hate them so much, you can just kill them directly.
Why let them do it secretly?
"In my opinion, whoever gets the most benefit in the end is the mastermind behind this."
The two concluded.
Then, his eyes moved between Wan Tianming and Man Huzi intentionally or unintentionally, and he sneered in his heart.
Once the teleportation array appears, that's when the two guys will suffer a great loss.
"Brother Man, Lay Buddhist, did you see that handsome young man? He is the most likely successor to the Six Paths Supreme Saint that I mentioned. He was ruthless and cruel, and he even overshadowed me at the trade fair, shocking all the Nascent Soul cultivators." Patriarch Ji Yin said to Man Huzi and Lay Buddhist Qing Yi.
His eyes fell on Bai Tian and he said the young man's name was Han Li.
Barbarian Beard looked over with wide eyes and found many young monks. He didn't know who they were. He asked curiously in a voice like a bull:
"Brother, which one are you talking about? Everyone looks ugly to me."
Man Huzi was puzzled because he had been sitting with his back to the three people during the day and could not see clearly. It was not until he used his spiritual sense to discover a young man with a natural expression, sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes that he finally understood who it was.
"It turned out to be the guy in the white robe with black edges! Jiyin, you have told us about this several times. It is said that many people want to take him as their apprentice. Why are you not tempted?"
Man Huzi looked at the Jiyin Ancestor curiously.
I thought, so what if I'm a Sanyang Master? If I come across a good seedling, I can just grab it. Do I have to consider other people's face?
Mr. Qing Yi nodded, also full of doubts.
Ji Yin smiled bitterly.
"Stop talking, Brother Lan asked for it himself, how can I compete with him for a disciple? You really don't know that Tianyuanzi and the two old men from Xinggong also asked for it personally at that time. My Jiyin weight is a little lower. It's strange that the young man wants to wait until the end of Xutian Palace before making a decision. Brother Man has great magical powers, I think you have a good chance!"
Ancestor Ji Yin looked at the tall and strong man with a bearded man.
Signal him to try.
They were all in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, so they didn't have to worry about old ghosts like Sanyang Shangren. However, Sanyang Shangren had the advantage of still having a few hundred years of life left, so he had a better chance of winning.
"Humph! When will I, Man Huzi, ask someone to be my disciple? When I get the Longevity Fruit and enter the Ice and Fire Path, I will force that kid to become my disciple. If he dares to refuse, he will not be able to leave Xutian Palace!"
Man Huzi looks domineering.
He decided to force Bai Tian to become his disciple without even asking whether Bai Tian was willing or not. Everything depended on strength.
After hearing this, Ancestor Ji Yin frowned, thinking that things might not be that simple.
If this kid is allowed to escape, Man Huzi may not live to see the day of his death. This kid is a ruthless character, and the arrogant Man Huzi may run into trouble.
"Brother Man, do you dislike us casual cultivators so much? The most urgent thing is to take out the Xutian Ding. Let these juniors go with them. There is no need to act on impulse." Mr. Qing Yi, as a casual cultivator, has a better impression of "Han Li" and persuaded him.
It is rare to see a casual cultivator about to advance to the Nascent Soul stage, and Mr. Qing Yi knows how difficult it is.
However, Man Huzi did not give him face.
"Humph! I said I must accept you as my disciple, no matter who tries to persuade me, it's useless."
"Just wait for that kid named Han Li to kneel down and call me Master. Get your gifts ready~Hahahaha."
After Man Huzi finished speaking, he laughed wildly, attracting the attention of many people.
Bai Tian's spiritual sense was so powerful that he could hear the conversation between the three people clearly.
