Chapter 246 Sincere Heart
Chapter 246 Sincere Heart
"You don't need to thank me, sir. The four sects are allies. Now that the evil is rampant, we should help each other." Bai Lan smiled.
Master Hegui stroked his beard and exhaled slowly: "That's right, that's right."
The three Jindan stage demon cultivators on the opposite side looked at each other, and finally had no choice but to retreat.
He originally wanted to use the mineral vein to lure Crane into the trap of the formation, and then kill him in one fell swoop, but now he has lost both his life and the mineral vein.
"You little brat from the Qingyuan Sect, are you the direct disciple of Patriarch Hanxu? Otherwise, why would he give this talisman to you?" Zhenren Hongxiao spoke in a cold voice and began to ask questions.
“If giving each other talismans can make us master and disciple, then now I am giving this talisman to all the demons, wouldn’t that mean I am recruiting more ghost disciples?” Bai Lan said with a smile.
This gift is certainly not a literal gift, but a life-threatening gift.
"...... Humph." Master Hongxiao's eyes turned cold: "Disrespectful young man, I will remember you."
It’s okay to remember her, just don’t remember Long Aotian.
"In that case, old man Hegui, I will spare your life today. Take those brats from the Jinqi Sect and get out of here." A demon cultivator snorted coldly, his tone displeased.
Before Master Hegui could say anything, Bai Lan's expression suddenly became serious and his face became heavy.
If this vein of minerals were to fall back into the hands of the Hehuan Sect, and the monks of the Hehuan Sect returned to the mine and found that such a large mine was suddenly empty, wouldn't she, who had just come out of the mine, be exposed?
If the mineral vein fell into the hands of the Jinqi Sect, although Hegui Zhenren would be furious after seeing it...
But there is a high probability that they will put the blame on the Hehuan Sect, thinking that they moved away early. In this case, it is reasonable for the Hehuan Sect to set a trap today.
Thinking of this, Bai Lan took a step forward and said unhappily: "This place has been occupied by fellow practitioners of the Jinqi Sect. How can we ask them to leave? It is you who should leave."
"Don't push your luck! I spared your lives today only because of the talisman given by Old Ancestor Hanxu. Otherwise, you would all die today!" Zhenren Hongxiao said angrily.
Bai Lan said nothing, but gathered spiritual power in his palms, wrapped the water blue talisman inside, and detonated it in an instant.
"You!" Mo Dao Jie Dan's heart tightened. He didn't expect Bai Lan to be so brave. He quickly retreated a few steps.
Although the three men were arrogant, they also valued their lives. Naturally, they did not want to lose their hundred years of cultivation at the hands of a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Seeing this, Master Hongxiao raised his eyebrows slightly, but still refused to believe it. He said in a cold voice: "I just don't believe that you really want to die here."
"I have five spiritual roots. It is a great fortune for me to be able to build a foundation in this life. I am afraid that it will be difficult to enter the Jindan realm in my entire life. Instead of living a mediocre life without doing anything, it is better to eliminate demons and defend the way, and bring peace to the world of cultivation! With my cultivation level of the initial stage of foundation building, I am not at a loss if I can help three Jindan demon cultivators to join me."
Bai Lan had a firm expression and a solemn tone, and he exuded a righteous spirit.
So righteous, she is righteous at this moment!
Zhenren Hegui, who was standing by, was moved. After hearing what Bai Lan said, he actually felt a sense of loss in his heart.
This boy has a sincere heart, which is rare in the world of cultivation.
True Man Hong Xiao also choked: "Five spiritual roots? Humph."
It is natural to be unwilling to die at the hands of a mere foundation-building person, and it is even more unwilling to die at the hands of a foundation-building person with five spiritual roots.
But in front of the talisman that contained a strike from the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, any reckless behavior would be reckless. There was no chance for trial and error, and they didn't dare to test Bai Lan, because that would be their lives at risk.
Although Bai Lan didn't really want to use the talisman, it was her fault for acting so well.
The look of determination to fight against evil and defend Taoism and perish together with his whole being moved even the Taoist Master He Gui who was standing beside him to the point of trembling with Taoism.
"Fellow Daoist Hongxiao, the task the elders have assigned us this time is only to kill Hegui. Now that the task has failed, there is naturally no need to continue to tangle with him. It is better to retreat early and report the situation here to the elders." Another Jindan demon cultivator standing behind Hongxiao spoke in a deep voice.
It's just a sect mission, there's no need to risk your life, especially since the mineral veins here belong to the Hehuan Sect and have nothing to do with them.
Master Hongxiao was extremely angry, but she had no choice but to lead her men to retreat.
"Master Hongxiao, please wait a moment." Bai Lan suddenly spoke.
Master Hongxiao frowned and turned around: "Why, are you regretting it and want to die?"
Bai Lan smiled slightly: "Before, when we were outside the Nine Yin Secret Realm, I still remember that Master Hong Xiao slapped my Qing Yuan Sect disciple Bai Ling for no reason, causing her tendons to be damaged, and even caused Master Qing Xuan to come to ask for an explanation?"
True Man Hong Xiao's expression changed for a moment, and he said in a deep voice: "Hasn't Bai Ling already betrayed the Demonic Path and become a traitor to your Qingyuan Sect?"
"Yes, Bai Ling is indeed a traitor of Qingyuan Sect, but he is also the apple of the eye of Patriarch Yunyang~" Bai Lan said with a smile.
Master Hongxiao's expression became even colder: "So what."
"Guess what, if Bai Ling tells off your bad deeds in front of Old Ancestor Yun Yang, will Yun Yang avenge Bai Ling and return the blow to you?"
At that time, he was in the process of forming the elixir and building the foundation. Zhenren Hongxiao held back some of her strength and only took half of Bai Ling's life.
If Yunyang attacks, it will be a palm strike at the Nascent Soul Stage. It will be unclear whether Hongxiao can survive by then.
Thinking of the temperament of the old ancestor Yunyang... the face of the real person Hongxiao changed, and he transmitted in a cold voice: "So what, how could the old ancestor listen to the words of a useless mortal and attack me?"
"Your ancestors can fight against He Gui, the Great Elder of the Demon Palace, for a mere Bai Ling, so what can he do to you, a Jindan Elder?"
Zhenren Hongxiao's heart tightened and she felt cold all over.
"Hmph, nonsense." Master Hongxiao waved her sleeves and left, but her back looked inexplicably a little flustered.
Watching the three demons forming Dan and leaving, Hegui Zhenren sighed slightly: "Although we have won the ownership of the mineral vein as we wished, we have also suffered heavy losses."
Several foundation-building cultivators died in the Jinqi Sect. If Bai Lan had arrived a step later, the remaining disciples would probably have died as well.
The seriously injured Jinqi Sect monks all had expressions of relief at having survived a calamity, and they bowed to Bai Lan and said, "Thank you, Junior Sister Bai, for saving our lives!"
"During the previous five sects' joint competition, I was actually angry about Junior Sister Bai's victory, and I fought with Junior Brother Xiao Tianqi from the Ling Sect during the foundation-building period competition. Now that I think about it, I really shouldn't have done that. I was petty-minded."
A cultivator at the eighth level of the Foundation Establishment Stage suddenly stepped forward, looking self-blaming and speaking in an apologetic tone.
