Ten Thousand Bones Forest, the fifteenth level of hell.
Inside the Phoenix Forest.
At the end of the forest, Liu Yanfa and Liu Yanfa were walking in the corridor of the palace. There were light red trumpet-shaped flamingo flowers planted on both sides of the road.
"This flower may not seem ordinary. When the moon is ripe, the flowers are picked to make wine and be used as a drink for the flaming birds, but it has a unique taste. Master Qingliang has come from afar, so you might as well give it a try." Liu Yanfa pointed to the flowers on the side and said with a smile.
After saying that, a dedicated young maid stepped forward with her head bowed and a green jade plate in her hand.
There happened to be two jade phoenix bottles on the plate, with light red crystal liquid inside.
A faint woody fragrance hangs in the air. If you smell it carefully, it also smells of melon and fruit, which is very refreshing.
Lin Mo withdrew his gaze, looked at the friendly man in front of him, and said with emotion:
"Phoenix Forest is indeed a vast place with many good things."
As he spoke, he picked up a cup of Flame Bird Drink and shook it gently, "Not to mention the essence and blood of the strange beasts in Cangfeng Mountain, the spiritual treasures and medicines in the forest, and the small flowers that can be seen everywhere actually have unique uses."
"This...can't be seen everywhere. Haha, this Flame Bird Flower can't survive without Cangfeng Mountain. It is also equivalent to a kind of spiritual grass." Liu Yan smiled and explained subconsciously.
"Brother Yanfa, to be honest, I have been seeking a breakthrough recently, and the key to my true skill is the essence and blood of exotic beasts and birds produced in Chifeng Mountain." Lin Mo thought for a moment and said directly.
"Huh? Essence and blood of alien beasts and birds?" Liu Yanfa's expression remained unchanged, and he secretly said that he went to the Three Treasures Hall without any problem, but then he expressed emotion,
"In terms of the essence and blood of flying beasts and birds, my Phoenix Forest is indeed of high quality, and there is even a beast king in it. With the rise of the alienated martial arts,
Not only the Forest of Ten Thousand Bones, but also the major outside sects, forces, and even the imperial court are all increasing their purchases, but their output remains unchanged..." He thought for a moment,
"But if Master Qingliang needs it, Liu will contribute some of it even if he is short. Master, when will you need it? Is it this month or next month?"
"I want it this month, next month, next month, too." Lin Mo tilted the wine cup in his hand, and the light red Flame Bird Drink dropped to the ground.
"Brother Yanfa, I won't talk to you too much. I came here today actually to discuss the alliance. Now in this fifteenth level of hell, the situation is strange and changeable, and the situation is unpredictable..."
As soon as he finished speaking, all the Yanniao Drink in the cup was dripping down, and the last drop condensed along the edge of the cup without falling.
Lin Mo put the jade phoenix bottle back on the jade plate in the hand of the maid. He looked at the person in front of him,
"Brother Yuan Hao, such a good person, died silently at the hands of a demon. If we don't join forces, I can't bear the pain of another good friend dying."
Liu Yanfa was stunned when he heard this. As a casual cultivator, he naturally had rich experience in the world, so he easily understood what Lin Mo meant.
The first half of the sentence is simple, just want him to supply a batch of exotic beast essence and blood every month.
The second half of the sentence starts to get outrageous, alliance? For people of their status, the alliance is indeed normal. What does the next sentence mean?
I can't bear the pain of another friend dying...
This is a threat! A complete threat!
He originally suspected that Yin Yuanhao's death was somewhat unusual, but he did not expect that it was actually related to the Lingtai master, and that the latter actually dared to continue to threaten him...
The two were obviously friends before, and their relationship was fine on the surface.
"Master, this... words, I also regret what happened to Brother Yuanhao, but your alliance is...?" He suppressed his anger and still had some hope.
"An alliance is an alliance. If you join me in an alliance, I will protect you. You and I will benefit from our resources. It's that simple." Lin Mo looked calm.
"I know there are some people behind you over the years, and you have established good relationships with some forces, but those are all false.
Even Yin Yuanhao, with the support of the Yin family, will die inexplicably, let alone you?"
"Master, you and I are guarding the realms. Don't we have the duty to help each other? In fact, it is not much different from the alliance. If you really want the essence and blood of the alien beasts, master, I will make the decision and I will give you a certain amount every month.
share,
As for more, I wonder if the master is joking with Liu, I really don’t understand." Liu Yanfa calmed down slightly and said with a smile, taking the initiative to take a step back.
"A joke? Monks don't lie, do you think I'm joking with you?" Lin Mo turned sideways and looked at the person in front of him.
"Of course, if Brother Yanfa has other ideas, you might as well give it a try."
Bang!
After the words fell, the pure maid beside her couldn't bear it anymore. The jade plate in her hand fell to the ground and smashed into pieces. Her pretty face turned pale.
After coming back to his senses, he subconsciously knelt down and started to clean up.
Seeing this scene, Liu Yanfa, who had always been smiling, gradually faded his smile and waved to the flustered maid who was still cleaning up, indicating that she could leave.
The latter quickly retreated.
He took a deep breath, and the mahogany phoenix hairpin in his hair emitted a faint red fluorescent light, illuminating his face brightly.
There was also a touch of fire in his eyes, and the air became hot and dry.
"Qingliang... I have always had good intentions and a friendly attitude when I interacted with you. Do you really not have the compassion of a monk?
For some of your own selfish desires, you plan to take action against me, the guardian of the realm who is entrusted with the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple and canonized by the imperial court?"
"This is not my original intention, it's just that things are unpredictable." Lin Mo's expression was calm.
"Then why..." Liu Yanfa wanted to say something else, but before he could finish his words, his eyes suddenly froze.
The person in front of me can be pointed out so simply.
He reacted very quickly, and a majestic energy instantly rose behind him. The energy was connected with each other, and complex red bird patterns appeared.
Suddenly, he took the lead in punching, and the two flames suddenly turned into two lights and shadows, and struck Lin Mo's chest at the same time.
He broke into Yizhou's arena single-handedly when he was young. In the past thirty years, he fought from south to north with a pair of fire fists, winning and losing. He fought from his peers to his seniors, and his martial arts became evergreen, and he finally earned the nickname of "Mighty and Strong in the North".
Liu Yan's power is the black bird divine flame power passed down from the ancient Demon Fire Sect.
Now when he enters the state of spontaneous combustion of divine flames, both his body and mind have climbed to a higher level.
There are no unnecessary external movements in this skill. Its strength is restraint and its strength is explosiveness.
Before the punch falls, the weather is calm, but once the punch is strong enough, thunder can be heard in the silent place.
"Huh? Not bad. Is this a physical training method?"
When Lin Mo saw this, he immediately saw Liu Yanfa's extraordinary appearance, and his face couldn't help but show a slight surprise, but then he didn't defend himself.
Stretch out your finger and point it between the other person's eyebrows.
The latter was also a ruthless person. Seeing this, he did not dodge or evade. As if he was really fighting for his life, he thrust out both fists at the same time. His speed increased sharply. A layer of red and white flames suddenly ignited above the fists. Two pairs of them. The wings of fire spread.
Like a divine bird!
stuffy!
The fists came first and then fell towards Lin Mo.
But just as it was about to get closer, a faint gray light film appeared at some point.
The Black Bird Divine Flame Fist, which was filled with all his energy, was like a stone sinking into a sea of mud, and its momentum was getting weaker and weaker.
The white-red divine bird flame was directly obliterated by the gray light.
No matter how Liu Yanfa mobilized his mind and exerted his Dharma body, it was all to no avail.
"How is that possible?!" Liu Yanfa suddenly lost his voice. He knew that there must be a gap between the two. After all, how could he not know about Lin Mo's reputation in Qihai.
Nanami's Small Five Jue, known as the East Buddha, is regarded as the benchmark established by Nanami to compete with the ancient Five Jue. It can be said that he is the real top figure of the younger generation of Nanami.
Although he is also strong, he does not have the confidence to compare with him.
Therefore, he made up his mind to survive one move and then make the matter bigger. After all, during this period, due to the death of Yin Yuanhao, the 15th Hell gained a lot of attention.
There are many powerful spies here.
Once things get serious, the situation can be reversed directly.
But right now...
Liu Yanfa didn't think any more, he just looked at it in despair
Hold your eyebrows and look at the extra finger between your eyebrows.
It was a finger that was slightly thicker than an ordinary person, and the nails were very neatly trimmed. It just touched the center of his eyebrows gently.
His will power and his Dharma body hardly hindered him in the slightest.
Liu Yanfa was covered in cold sweat, and a smile appeared on his face again.
"Master Qingliang, why is this? The alliance is actually Liu's idea." He retracted his fists hanging on Lin Mo's chest.
"If we can use this to find peace in this troubled world, it would actually be great. If you have any other instructions, Master, just tell me."
Lin Mo retracted his fingers, his fingertips turned slightly red.
He looked at Liu Yanfa, whose vitality and blood were fluctuating, and a smile appeared on his face again, with a calm expression.
"Don't blame me, Brother Yanfa. If it was a year ago, I wouldn't be like this. Unfortunately... time has passed." He still had a good impression of the other party, which was also the reason why he chose to stay.
If they were still in Nanami, the two might have forged a friendship worth cherishing.
pity……
Liu Yanfa's expression changed slightly, and then he smiled bitterly, but he seemed to have figured it out.
"I understand. I didn't expect that Master, you are so young and young, that you would actually embark on that path..."
"From now on, except for the exclusive supply to the imperial court, Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple, and some special forces, the blood essence and blood of the alien beasts produced by the Phoenix Forest will be given priority to you, Master. The same applies to other resources."
"I can understand the Imperial Court and Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple, but what do the other special forces mean?" Lin Mo asked.
Logically speaking, like the resources produced in the Ten Thousand Bones Forest boundary, the corresponding guards need to provide back to the court and Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple every specified period of time.
As for the rest, it is up to the guard to handle it himself.
There is no special power.
"If you are worried about other forces, just ask them to come to me." Lin Mo said directly.
Anyway, he was doing things according to the rules, and he was determined not to sell anyone's face.
It's not enough to begin with, so why should we give it to outsiders?
"This..." Liu Yanfa was stunned, and his smile became even more bitter, "Master, you should know why I can sit in this Phoenix Forest. If I don't give it, I'm afraid..."
When Lin Mo heard this, he understood instantly.
It stands to reason that, like the Ten Thousand Bone Forest stretching out, surpassing the twelve levels of hell, except for the lack of real people, like a ranger warrior with no background, no matter how strong he is, he will not be recruited.
Because going to the back is dangerous, but the resources are correspondingly greater.
The reason why Liu Yanfa was able to secure his position in the Phoenix Forest was that he married a Taoist from Hanjing Yumen, one of the five sects in Yizhou.
Later, he served as a guest minister in the family.
Hanjing Yumen and Dongzhenmen are both one of the five sects in Yizhou, so they are naturally powerful, but they are different from Dongzhenmen.
His sect only accepts women, and the martial arts he practices are specifically suitable for women.
Not only is its power no less powerful than that of a normal man in the same situation, it can also nourish a woman's body, ensure her appearance, and delay aging.
The most important thing is that marriage is not allowed in Hanjing Yumen. There is only one requirement. After getting married, the husband must be the guest of the family.
Therefore, over time, in terms of superficial power alone, Hanjing Yumen's power even ranked first among the five sects.
The network of relationships is even more huge.
In fact, the most powerful knight-errant cultivators like Liu Yanfa, who have no family, are the most popular among them.
"I understand what you mean, but with your status, I don't believe you will be subject to too much control." Lin Mo shook his head.
Just kidding, no matter how powerful Hanjing Yumen’s methods are, they can’t confuse people’s minds.
It would be funny if a great true king could be simply restrained and not respected.
"What Master said is indeed true. What Liu said is just an explanation in advance. I hope Master can understand it." Liu Yanfa sighed.
"I am not an unreasonable person. I can understand human nature." Lin Mo said softly, with a smile on his face.
"Let's do this, you look at that so-called list with me, I'll make some selections, and then I'll ask Brother Yanfa to invite Han Jing
The people from Yumen will discuss with me.
I happen to have something to trouble the people of Hanjing Yumen."
If we talk about the intelligence network alone, in Yizhou, apart from the imperial court and Wanfo Temple, the strongest one is the Han Jing Jade Sect, which is composed of women.
If we can reach some kind of alliance with them, there will be continuous benefits.
You can even search for flaws across regions
Liu Yanfa was stunned. He felt that Lin Mo had agreed to him, but it seemed that he had not agreed.
On the contrary, it seems that they want to use this as a threat to force Hanjing Yumen to serve them...
"Master... Isn't this bad... Yumen is different from ordinary forces, and it is very involved. There are even disciples in Wangjing and the imperial court..."
He opened his mouth and hinted.
The stronger the martial arts, the better the talent and temperament of a woman. Such people tend to get married better.
It is said that the leader of the Yumen Sect is also connected with the person in the state...
"It doesn't matter, I just chatted for a while, Brother Yanfa is overthinking." Lin Mo said with a smile.
"Okay then." Liu Yanfa sighed softly, looked at Lin Mo who was smiling, and did not try to dissuade him any more.
"Master!!"
At this moment, there were two screams.
Suddenly, from behind the corridor, two pure-looking women wearing white skirts ran out.
The skin of the two people is extremely fair, truly like jade. Under the Taoist skirts, their two long legs are extremely white and tender, and each holds a tiger-striped Taoist sword in their hands.
Their strength is not weak, they are all at the master level.
One of them on the left has long hair tied into a high ponytail and a heroic face, but now his face is covered with frost.
"Yurou, Yurou, why are you out here?" Liu Yanfa couldn't help but frown.
"If I don't come out, I'm afraid I won't even know about it until Master, you sell our Frost Jade Sect!"
The woman with high ponytail on the left said coldly, glanced at Liu Yanfa, and then her eyes fell on Lin Mo:
"Do you think that since Master Gushe is dead, you are not from the Hanjing Yumen? All this has nothing to do with you? Are you doing this worthy of Master Gushe, who was so infatuated with you and insisted on marrying you back then?
