As the command came out, the evil ghost spider mother's escaping movements froze, as if the surrounding space had turned into fine steel, unable to move at all.
Immediately afterwards, a colorful ray of light was seen, covering the evil ghost spider mother in it. Then there was a "bang" of thunder, and the evil ghost spider mother who had just escaped from birth was lifted and slipped into Luo Hong's hands.
Seeing that she was back in a familiar place and restored to the size of a fist, the evil ghost spider mother's eight compound eyes suddenly lost their light and she lay down dejectedly.
Now that Luo Hong knows the details of this demon spider, it is not surprising that he can easily control it. After all, this demon spider is only an eighth-level peak monster in addition to its special talent.
"Why did this fellow Taoist allow the spirit beasts to cause chaos and almost cost the lives of my disciples of the Immortal Transformation Sect?!"
After rescuing the nun in green, Mrs. Mu immediately looked at Luo Hong with a frosty face, her eyes filled with anger.
"Fellow Taoist has misunderstood. This demon spider was caught by me not long ago and is not my spiritual beast.
Moreover, I have no intention of hurting anyone. If the disciples of your sect had not thought that this demonic spider was related to your sect’s guardian beast and had to check it out, I would never have released it.”
Luo Hong, who had gained something from the fight, was in a good mood. He smiled slightly and said in a gentle and genuine voice.
"Yes, yes, that's it! Senior also gave face to the two senior sisters, so he took the risk of losing his prey and released the evil ghost spider mother. It was not a provocation!"
Zhen Lan was afraid that Luo Hong would have a quarrel with her sect, so she quickly revealed the truth.
"Nephew Tao, is this true?"
Mrs. Mu's anger subsided a little, and she asked the female monk in green in an unhappy tone.
"Great Elder, it is indeed his disciples who helped him grow up, no wonder this senior!"
The female monk in green clothes was a little frightened and said that she did not dare to add fuel to the fire and let the sect offend a powerful enemy.
"Fellow Taoist, is the spell you used just now the Immobilization Charm?
To be able to transform into a spider-level monster so easily, it seems that my fellow Taoist's cultivation is far beyond the early stage of Nascent Soul!"
After saving the female cultivator named below, Lan Cai'er saw the scene of Luo Hong blocking the red beam of light for Zhen Lan and others, so she was not as angry as Mrs. Mu, so she noticed the powerful spell fluctuation at that moment.
"Haha, this must be fellow Taoist Lan. Miss Zhen has mentioned you to me many times. When I saw you today, it turned out that you have an extraordinary appearance and extraordinary temperament.
Yes, I just used the Immobilization Spell, and because of some unexpected encounters, I have already broken through the early stage of Nascent Soul."
The existence of monks in the late Nascent Soul is too shocking, and there are many people outside the mountain gate, so Luo Hong doesn't want to expose his cultivation.
According to his assumptions, as long as Lan Cai'er and Madam Mu knew his true cultivation level and acted in a favorable manner for him, it would be enough for Huaxian Sect.
After breaking through the early stage of Nascent Soul, that would be the middle stage of Nascent Soul, Mrs. Mu thought naturally.
"Since it was my disciples of the Huaxian Sect who made the mistake first, I will not pursue my fellow Taoist for disrupting the mountain gate.
However, I am not as easy to fool as these two nephews, and a mere eighth-level evil ghost spider mother is not enough to make the Nine Netherworld Spider feel eager to devour it!"
Upon hearing that Luo Hong and herself were monks of the same level, Madam Mu's tone immediately became much kinder, but she still did not give up the idea of finding out what happened to the Nine Netherworld Spider.
The emotion of longing to devour, haha, it really is like this. Luo Hong's heart moved, confirming one of his guesses.
The female cultivator surnamed Fang was right. Such phenomena usually occur in both directions. In fact, when the heroic female cultivator stationed at the mountain gate went to report it, he noticed something strange about him.
In the spirit beast bag, his twelve flying purple-striped scorpions were also restless, twitching with excitement.
If they hadn't been taken away by the demons of the black realm, and if their original evil spirits had been replaced, they would have made a big fuss long ago.
Because he is very interested in spiritual insects, Luo Hong has read many related classics and has a full understanding of this current phenomenon.
To put it bluntly, the Flying Purple Scorpion and the Nine Netherworld Spider are natural enemies of each other. It can be said that they are two sides of yin and yang, like water and fire. But if one of them devours the other, it will gain great benefits!
For example, Luo Hong is currently using poison to urge the Flying Purple Stripe Scorpion to advance, but he is actually not 100% sure.
Maybe the Flying Purple Scorpion will be able to evolve and grow with this opportunity, but it may also simply improve its cultivation level.
But if they can swallow the Nine Netherworld Spider, they will definitely be able to take this step!
"If it wasn't the demon spider I caught, then it might be the ancient elixir in my storage bag."
With that said, Luo Hong turned over his palm and took out a jade box. He slightly untied the restrictions on it, and streams of black poisonous mist overflowed from the cracks in the box.
Mrs. Mu and Lan Cai'er were both proficient in the art of poison. After a moment of induction, they knew that the poison contained poisonous insects and monsters, and they couldn't help but believe it.
But before they could say anything, Luo Hong put it on a jade pendant around his waist.
A dazzling white aura suddenly appeared, and the jade box disappeared.
"However, I have also raised some spiritual insects, and I do not intend to give up this medicine. Please understand me, two fellow Taoists."
"This" Mrs. Mu stopped talking and took out the blood-stained wooden sign again, and found that there was no movement.
"Since fellow Taoist said this, I will not force anyone to do anything. She also invites fellow Taoist to come in so that my junior sister and I can fulfill our friendship as landlords."
The Nine Netherworld Spider is a ninth-level spiritual beast and the foundation of the Immortal Transformation Sect. Naturally, Mrs. Mu will not give up so easily.
It's not easy to force it now, so let's wait for a while. Anyway, the other party's goal is probably to inherit their own spells. Since they want something, they don't have to worry about not being able to trade.
"Haha, thank you fellow Taoist for understanding, please!"
Luo Hong chuckled and said very politely.
What he said just now was obviously not true. The ancient elixir was just a poisonous elixir that he took out casually.
The reason why he did this was to attract people's attention, so that he could move the Flying Purple Scorpion into his portable jade mansion.
Otherwise, if he is exposed, the opportunity for friendly exchanges will be gone. After all, for now, he will never abandon the Flying Purple Scorpion, and the Huaxian Sect will never abandon the Nine Netherworld Spider.
Therefore, Luo Hong simply followed the trend and deceived the other party that what the Nine Nether Spider was eager to devour was the elixir on his body.
In this way, Mrs. Namu will definitely show her favor to him, and it will be much easier to obtain the formation diagram of the mountain protection formation and its spell inheritance.
In addition, he also had time to think about how to make Madam Mu tempted and sell the Nine Netherworld Spider to him.
"Well, Lan Cai'er did not hesitate to go to the Black Realm and risk her life for the Dark Flame Fruit. Obviously, this Nine Nether Spider of the Immortal Transformation Sect is about to reach the end of its life, and its lifespan is running out.
There should be some exchange, it just depends on whether I can afford the price.
Hehe, this time the other party wants to earn my interest, but I am interested in her principal!"
With this in mind, Luo Hong flew over the mountain gate with the two girls and entered the interior of Huaxian Sect.
The spiritual energy in the formation is obviously much fuller, and the mountains and forests are not as humid and hot as the outside world, and they have a fairy atmosphere.
However, the buildings with different styles and the giant insect beasts that appear from time to time still remind Luo Hong that this is the southern border of the Jin Dynasty.
"My fellow Taoist has come a long way and has prey to deal with. Why don't you let me arrange a place for you first so that you can have a good rest for two days."
Mrs. Mu knew very well that hot tofu can’t be eaten in a hurry, so she said calmly and authentically.
"Fellow Taoist, you are interested. I am indeed a little tired. Please let me rest for three days. After three days, I will sit down with you two to discuss the Tao and explain my intention."
Mrs. Mu is not in a hurry, Luo Hong is even less anxious, and the Evil Ghost Spider Mother really needs to be dealt with as soon as possible.
"Well, since Fellow Taoist has an old relationship with Lan'er, I'll leave this matter to her and Junior Sister Lan. I still have sect affairs to deal with, so I'll take the first step."
After saying that, Mrs. Mu turned her back, signaled Lan Cai'er with her eyes, and then flew away.
"Huh~ I was scared to death. I thought you were going to fight with Mrs. Mu, Senior Luo!"
As soon as Mrs. Mu left, Zhen Lan immediately became lively. Now there were only four of them left, and she no longer had to hide her identity for Luo Hong.
"Haha, how could it be? Luo has always been kind to others.
If I say it’s still Lan Daoist friend Huizhi Lanxin, Luo would like to thank you for concealing it.”
Although Luo Hong had some friendship with Lan Cai'er when he was in the Black Realm, he used the pseudonym "Zhuo Bufan" at that time, which was like getting to know each other again before being exposed.
"Since Fellow Daoist Luo is Lan'er's benefactor, I will naturally help you.
However, for the sake of my sect, I still have to ask fellow Taoist: Why do you want to remain anonymous?
Please tell me, fellow Daoist Luo, how to tell me."
Lan Cai'er suddenly stopped smiling and said seriously.
"What might this thing remind you of fellow Taoist Lan?"
The corner of Luo Hong's mouth curled up slightly, and he turned over his hand and took out his commonly used iron mask from the treasure bag.
Seeing this iron face, Lan Cai'er was slightly startled at first, then her eyes widened, and she looked at Luo Hong in surprise and said:
"Could it be you?"
"Hey, Luo is exactly the person that Fellow Taoist was thinking of. After so many years of separation, Fellow Daoist Lan, please don't blame Luo for hiding it back then."
Luo Hong helped Lan Cai'er and the others in the black realm just for today, and he revealed his identity without hesitation.
"So that's it. Since Fellow Daoist Luo has come to Dajin, it is only natural that he was found out about what happened back then due to his strength in both good and evil ways. It is no wonder that he has to hide his name and get the ancient elixir."
Lan Cai'er suddenly understood and gave Luo Hong a lot of ideas.
"What, why is it like this? Sister Lan, Senior Luo, what are you talking about?"
Zhen Lan is confused now. She understands every word they say, but when they are combined together, she is confused.
Luzhu, who was standing behind Luo Hong, also had a question mark, but she was used to her master's mystery, so she didn't want to ask more questions.
"Not many sects know Luo's identity yet, and Luo Hong won't stay in Huaxian Sect for long. Fellow Daoist Lan doesn't have to worry about Luo bringing trouble to your sect."
Luo Hong continues to do riddles about humanity.
"Brother Luo, why did you say this? You were kind to me and my junior sisters back then. How could our Huanxian Sect stand by and watch when you were robbed? Even if you stay in the sect, if the incident happened, I would definitely send you to a secret place.
A place to settle down!"
Lan Cai'er raised her eyebrows and said with a somewhat angry look of loyalty.
"What, Sister Lan? Senior Luo is also kind to you, why have I never heard you talk about it?"
Zhen Lan, who was ignored by the two, pouted slightly unhappily.
"Lan'er, please don't ask any more questions about Brother Luo's safety, let alone spread the word."
Lan Cai'er ignored Zhen Lan's coquettishness and warned her seriously.
"Okay, let's not talk about it. Sister Lan, which peak do you plan to place Senior Luo on?"
Zhen Lan sighed in frustration and forcibly changed the topic.
"Brother Luo is an honored guest, so he naturally has to live at Ganquan Peak. Lan'er, please use the transmission talisman to inform the disciples at Ganquan Peak and ask them to prepare the best cave!"
After learning about Luo Hong's other identity, Lan Cai'er's attitude immediately changed and she became somewhat attentive.
Ganquan Peak is one of the most spiritual peaks in the Huaxian Sect. It is comparable to the Cuimu Peak where Mrs. Mu lives. Only the Yuanying elders of the sects who have a close relationship with the Huaxian Sect can stay as guests. Lan Cai'er arranged this
The intention is self-evident.
However, just when Zhen Lan happily took out the transmission talisman, Luo Hong stopped her.
"Miss Zhen, wait a minute. Just now, Luo used his spiritual consciousness to look at Huaxian Sect and found that the golden aura of a mountain col there is particularly strong. I wonder if fellow Taoist Lan can tell Luo the reason?"
Hearing this, the three girls all looked in the direction Luo Hong pointed. Zhen Lan grew up in the Huaxian Sect. After just one glance, she felt confident and immediately replied:
"There is a mountain valley sandwiched between Luhua Peak and Xixia Peak. Among them, the only place where the golden spiritual energy is rich is Shuo Jinchi. It is the place where monks above the sect's alchemy level are used to refine poison and gu.
Why would Senior Luo be interested in this special spiritual place? Could it be that he also wants to refine Gu?"
Raising spiritual insects is actually a branch of Gu. Zhen Lan knew that Luo Hong was interested in spiritual insects, so she couldn't help but ask this question.
"To be honest, one of Luo's magic weapons was damaged in a battle not long ago. He needs to find a gold spirit to refining it. I didn't expect that the noble sect has one. It is really destined."
Luo Hong did not lie to him, this was indeed an unexpected surprise for him.
"That's a coincidence! Anyway, Shuojin Pond is not a restricted area for the sect. Since Brother Luo has this need, I will take Brother Luo to have a look."
Lan Cai'er wanted to repay Luo Hong's favor, so she was naturally willing to make it easier.
Then, the four of them turned into two escaping lights and reached the sky above Shuojin Pond in just a moment.
Luo Hong looked down and saw a pool filled with golden spiritual liquid that was like liquid gold. It was several miles in radius. The earth and rocks on the shore were covered with golden light, and not a single blade of grass grew.
The gold liquid in the pool bubbles and bubbles from time to time. If it bursts, a burst of scorching gas will definitely flow out, making the scenery seen from above somewhat distorted.
Currently, there are four or five female alchemy cultivators from Huaxian Sect practicing here, either collecting golden spirit liquid or sacrificing Gu insects.
"Not bad, this place is suitable for Luo's retraining treasure!
Please also ask Fellow Daoist Lan to arrange a place for Luo to live on the two nearby peaks."
After sensing the aura environment here, Luo Hong couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.
