Seeing that Lin Ran was arrogant and didn't say hello, Chen Xuan didn't take it seriously, but felt a little funny in his heart.
In the past, when he was a low-level monk, he was looked down upon by those superior high-level monks. Now the situation is reversed. When Chen Xuan saw Lin Ran, he had a strange feeling of looking at a child.
"Ahem."
Wen Po broke the slightly awkward atmosphere with two dry coughs.
"This mission is very simple. According to reports from sect disciples, there seems to be an earth monster dormant under the spirit mine island under our sect's jurisdiction. Judging from the aura, it should only be a third-level monster. I believe that based on Daoyou Chen and
Fellow Daoist Lin's cultivation should make it easy to kill or capture him, and I look forward to the successful return of our two guests."
After Wen Po finished explaining the mission content, a foundation-building disciple walked into the hall from outside the door and said respectfully to Lin Ran and Chen Xuan: "Please, the two guests, please accompany the disciples to our sect's Lingmine Island."
Lin Ran put his hands behind his back and strode out the door.
Chen Xuan nodded goodbye to Wen Po and walked out of the hall with the Foundation Establishment disciple. Then he and Lin Ran followed the Foundation Establishment disciple to the location of the Canglang Sect's Spirit Mine Island.
After flying for about two hours, the three of them arrived at a small island covering an area of about a hundred miles. During this period, Lin Ran did not exchange any polite words with Chen Xuan.
And Chen Xuan also treated Lin Ran as if he didn't exist. Anyway, to deal with a third-level monster, he didn't need Lin Ran's help at all.
On the contrary, Lin Ran felt that Chen Xuan was very arrogant. He was a master of the golden elixir stage, so he was Chen Xuan's senior, but Chen Xuan didn't respect him at all. This made Lin Ran increasingly dissatisfied with Chen Xuan.
The two of them walked to the entrance of the spiritual mine cave together under this cold relationship.
I saw dozens of Canglang Sect disciples standing at the entrance of the cave. The ones with the highest level of cultivation were only those who were in the Foundation Establishment Stage. The rest were all low-level monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage and Qi Refining Stage. Not even one could be called a genius.
The leading disciple who had completed the Foundation Establishment Period was an honest-looking man. When he saw the two guest guests arriving, he quickly brought other disciples up to greet them: "Greetings to the two guest guests. Disciple Zhao Lai is the director of this Spiritual Mine Island."
Lin Ran nodded slightly with a profound look on his face. Although when he was a casual cultivator, he was submissive in front of the Nascent Soul Stage and Transformation Stage monks, but after becoming the guest minister of the Canglang Sect, so many Canglang Sect disciples respected him, which completely satisfied him.
The mentality of wanting to be a master.
Just when Lin Ran wanted to briefly ask about the situation in the mine, because he had a breath or two more time to put on airs, Chen Xuan spoke rudely first: "Zhao Lai, when was that monster that Master Wen mentioned?
Appeared in the mine?
How much damage was caused to the mine?
Have you found its hiding place so far?"
After hearing Chen Xuan ask three questions in one breath, Lin Ran glanced at Chen Xuan fiercely from the corner of his eye, but Chen Xuan was completely unmoved.
Zhao Lai quickly replied: "Chen Xianchang, that monster appeared thirteen days ago. According to our judgment, it should be a third-level monster snake. After this monster snake appeared, it caused many collapses in the mine and injured people."
There are more than a dozen disciples. Fortunately, the demon snake did not attack us actively, and it only appeared once and then disappeared. We don’t know why. We haven’t found out where it is hiding yet.”
Chen Xuan was a little scared when he saw Zhao Lai describe it. It was obviously not that he hadn't found the hiding place of the demon snake yet, but that he didn't dare to look for it.
A third-level demon snake is still very scary to a monk in the foundation building stage.
"Hmph, it's just a third-level demon snake that scared you like this. It seems that I have to supervise the daily practice of you disciples on behalf of Master Wen when I have time."
Lin Ran first reprimanded the Canglang Sect disciples who were present, and then ordered Zhao Lai, "Come into the mine with me and take a look. I want to capture that demonic snake alive."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Ran walked into the half-collapsed mine with striding steps, and casually cast the object-repelling spell to remove the pieces of gravel blocking the tunnel.
The Canglang Sect disciples behind him looked up with admiration. Lin Ran's effortless way of expelling objects was not simple, it was enough to show his solid foundation in Taoism. Moreover, Lin Ran was also a casual cultivator, which made Cang Ran who was following him even more excited.
The disciples of Langzong admired him.
On the other hand, another new guest, Chen Xianchang, heard that he was seriously injured before entering the sect. It seems that the injury has not recovered yet, and he seemed to be very afraid of the third-order demon snake when he walked at the back. This made Chen Xuan originally
The Canglang Sect disciples who were looking forward to it were quite disappointed.
Chen Xuan doesn't care what these Canglang Sect disciples think of him. Now he can't release his spiritual consciousness to sense the location of the demon snake. Otherwise, once his spiritual consciousness is released during the Void Return Stage, not to mention a third-level demon snake, the entire island will be wiped out.
Escape.
However, Chen Xuan's soul was seriously injured and he could only use his clairvoyant pupils to observe the tunnel, trying to find any clues about the demonic snake.
Soon, Lin Ran led everyone into a relatively wide mine, where there was a pile of unrefined ore.
After arriving here, Zhao Lai and other disciples began to become nervous.
Since the discovery of the demonic snake, they have not dared to enter the mine again, but the sect's immortal leader either has other important matters and cannot escape, or is in a state of seclusion, and this small spiritual mine island is not that important to the Canglang Sect.
It was important, so after Wen Po heard that it was just a third-level demon snake, he only sent two Jindan-level guests to deal with it.
Lin Ran first used his spiritual consciousness to sense it, but found no aura of the demonic snake. He signaled everyone to keep quiet, and then took out a small gray-brown loach from a spirit beast bag.
Chen Xuan saw that this little loach was emitting a faint spiritual light and was actually a spiritual beast. He couldn't help but think that even the spiritual beasts raised by these overseas monks were so special.
I saw Lin Ran putting the little loach on the ground. After it landed, the little loach rubbed around on the ground with five pairs of short beards, as if it was looking for something.
Then the little loach dived into the soil and actually used the soil escape technique to burrow underground, very nimbly.
Lin Ran's eyes were fixed on the direction where the little loach was drilling. Suddenly, the ground not far ahead showed signs of churning, and there was a sound of cracking soil.
"There! Chase!"
Lin Ran shouted coldly, held out a treasure cap that emitted green light, and chased after the loose ground.
Zhao Lai and other disciples looked at each other in confusion and hesitated before following him.
Chen Xuan followed leisurely at the back, not worried at all that Lin Ran would take away the credit.
The group of people chased underground along the corridor, and did not stop until they entered another deeper mine.
Lin Ran recalled the little loach into the spirit beast bag, and fixed his eyes with a cold light on a huge snake head that looked like the mouth of a basin deep in the mine.
This demonic snake was covered in dark purple scales and had a pair of vertical pupils filled with red light. The disciples of the Canglang Sect shuddered and just wanted to escape.
