In a hidden valley, Zhao Gaozheng looked at the four people in front of him with a strange expression.
Taoist Tongxin, Luo Qingyi, Luo Qingshan and Qingyu.
This place was Luo Wang's station in Kyoto, and it was also Luo Wang's largest stronghold in the Luofu Dynasty. In order to better collect information about Kyoto, Zhao Gao specially selected this hidden valley as Luo Wang's station.
This valley is far away from official roads and is surrounded by deep mountains and old forests. There are no villages or towns, so few people usually appear around it.
However, Zhao Gao did not expect that someone would come to his door.
Moreover, the visitors were Taoist Tongxin and Luo Qingyi.
At the entrance of the camp, Taoist Tongxin looked at Zhao Gao with a look of surprise in his deep eyes.
"Your Excellency, don't you invite me to come in and sit down?"
Luo Qingyi next to him looked at the situation in the camp with curiosity.
At this time, she still thought that Zhao Gao was from Emperor Luofu, and naturally she also thought that this place was the manpower secretly arranged by Emperor Luofu.
Zhao Gao's eyes moved from Luo Qingyi to Taoist Tongxin.
"Tongxin Taoist!"
A secret look of vigilance flashed in his narrow eyes.
Taoist Tongxin has been a well-known strong man in the Yuluo Sea for a long time. Even if the net is not deliberately collecting information about him, he can still get a lot of rumors about him.
This Tongxin Taoist is a powerful person in the late stage of Jingzhao Realm and the third level of Divine Intention Realm. He is the top existence in Yuluo Sea. Zhao Gao naturally does not dare to underestimate him.
"please!"
He opened the gate of the village and invited the four people into the village.
Now that the other party has come to your door, there is no point in hiding anymore.
This cottage is not big, with only a few dozen wooden houses, and it looks a bit crude. However, as Luowang's headquarters in Luofu Kyoto, there are nearly a hundred Luowang elites here.
Nowadays, the members of Luowang are divided into two parts. One part is the spy, which was set up with reference to the Dali Imperial City Division, and is responsible for infiltration, lurking, inquiring about information, etc. The minimum requirement for their cultivation is level seven, and there are also some innate warriors.
The other part is the killers. After annexing the order takers, there are more than 60 killers with innate realms in the net, including many masters of the second innate realm, but there are no masters of the third innate realm.
Most of the Luo Wang members in the cottage in front of them are Luo Wang's killers, and their cultivation levels are at the ninth level and innate realm.
Such strength is nothing in the eyes of Taoist Tongxin, but it is enough to surprise him.
Especially when he saw the Luowang members in groups of three and three groups surrounding them, he knew that these were the best of the best.
The Sancai Military Formation is the most suitable military formation for small-scale combat, and it is also one of the few military formations that Dali has mastered. It is naturally impossible for Luowang members not to practice.
Soon, the group came to the largest wooden house in the village.
Although it is said to be the largest, it is actually only fifty or sixty square meters. It is used by Luowang members to summarize and analyze intelligence information. It is considered a large office.
As for the reception room.
Are you kidding me? This is Luowang's stronghold. How come there are guests coming to visit?
Even if there were, Zhao Gao would send them back to the west.
That is to say, Zhao Gao knew that he was no match for Taoist Tongxin and Luo Qingyi, otherwise he would have taken action long ago.
But no matter what happens today, Zhao Gao will abandon this stronghold.
Luowang's stronghold is absolutely not allowed to be known to outsiders. This outsider refers to people outside Luowang, including people from Dali.
After everyone sat down, Zhao Gao asked someone to make a pot of good tea.
Although the place is simple, the tea is really good.
The establishment of strongholds is restricted by geographical conditions, but as the leader of the net, Zhao Gao will not wrong himself, and there will be no shortage of good things.
"I wonder why your Excellency is here?" Zhao Gao Gao sat on a chair and asked in a calm tone.
In fact, he was already guessing the purpose of Taoist Tongxin's visit. But he thought a lot, but he never thought about why Taoist Tongxin came.
Daoxin Guan has always disliked getting involved in the fights between forces, and Luo Wang has nothing to do with it.
If only Luo Qingyi had come, Zhao Gao could still make some guesses, but when Taoist Tongxin arrived, Zhao Gao had no clue at all.
"I would like to ask you to do me a favor!" Taoist Tongxin said.
"What's the rush?"
"Looking for a blood lotus!"
"..."
Zhao Gao looked at him strangely.
What does this mean?
I came to him just to find the Blood Lotus!
Tongxin Taoist said: "This bloody lotus is not an ordinary blood lotus, it should be called the Demon Heart Blood Lotus! It is called the Holy Lotus in the Blood Demon Sect!"
"The Blood Demon Cult has been cultivating the Demonic Heart Blood Lotus, and the way to cultivate the Demonic Heart Blood Lotus is to forcibly devour the blood of living creatures through the blood refining array. Each Demonic Heart Blood Lotus requires the Qi and blood of tens of millions of living beings to cultivate.
success."
Zhao Gao frowned, "What is the effect of this Devil's Heart Blood Lotus?"
"Gather the blood energy and enhance the blood demon's artistic conception!" Tongxin Taoist said.
Taoist Tongxin nodded slightly and said: "It should be an artificial spiritual plant!"
"Spiritual plants are the creation of heaven and earth, taking the essence of the sun and the moon. Each spiritual plant must grow in the land of spiritual charm, and after several years or even decades of growth, it can give birth to spiritual fruits."
"The longer it takes to grow, the greater its effectiveness. This is also the reason why spiritual plants are scarce."
"However, the Devil's Heart Blood Lotus does not need to wait for a long time. As long as there is enough blood, it can mature in just one night."
Tongxin Taoist explained.
"So someone is planning to cultivate the Devil's Heart Blood Lotus in Kyoto!" Zhao Gao instantly understood what Tongxin Taoist meant.
"That's right, I would like to ask you to find the Devil's Heart Blood Lotus!" Taoist Tongxin said.
Taoist Tongxin is powerful, but the intelligence ability of Tao Xin Guan is not worth mentioning. He can find out that the Devil's Heart Blood Lotus is in Kyoto through the qi-gazing technique, but he cannot determine the specific location and does not know who controls the Devil's Heart Blood Lotus.
That's why he came to Zhao Gao. As for why he thought Zhao Gao could find Tongxinxuelian, it wasn't because he knew Luo Sheng's ability and details, but because luck led him here.
At this time, he didn't know Zhao Gao's identity. He only knew that Zhao Gao could help him find the Devil's Heart Blood Lotus.
Zhao Gao fell into deep thought. The Blood Demon Cult has always been their target. Recently, they have been collecting information about the Blood Demon Cult, but unfortunately they have achieved little success.
The arrival of Taoist Tongxin seemed to give them an opportunity to have a deeper understanding of the Blood Demon Cult.
"I want to know the detailed information about the Blood Demon Cult!" Zhao Gao suddenly raised his head and said.
Taoist Tongxin seemed to have expected that he would ask these questions, and without any concealment, he said directly: "The Blood Demon Sect is an extremely large and evil force."
"The Blood Demon Cult was established eight thousand years ago by the Blood Demon Supreme Luoning Shan!" When he said this, he glanced at Luo Qingyi and Luo Qingshan next to him.
"When the Blood Demon Cult was first established, it was not called the Blood Demon Cult. Instead, it called itself the Holy Blood Cult. Its purpose was to collect the blood of giant beasts and condense the Qi and Blood Yuan Dan."
"The blood of giant beasts contains a lot of spiritual energy. Although it is not as good as spiritual plants, it is also a rare cultivation resource. The Holy Blood Cult is very good at hunting giant beasts. They rely on hunting giant beasts to grow stronger step by step!"
"And Luoningshan has very high qualifications in alchemy and magic formations. He developed the blood refining formation to refine the blood of giant beasts faster. After refining the blood, he used it to refine the blood essence.
Dan.”
"With a large amount of Blood Essence Pills, the Holy Blood Sect has developed faster, and Luoning Mountain's cultivation has also improved faster. In just a hundred years, Luoning Mountain has reached the peak of the Silent Light Realm."
"However, long-term consumption of the Blood Essence Pill refined using the blood of giant beasts caused Luoning Shan's consciousness to become confused, and he would fall into a state of madness from time to time. In a mad state, Luo Ningshan would transform into an unconscious blood demon who would only act wantonly.
Kill all living creatures around you."
"Therefore, in a very short period of time, the Holy Blood Sect was killed by him and fell into pieces. After that, many forces in the western sea besieged Luoning Mountain under the banner of exterminating demons and defending the Tao."
"It is said that the battle lasted for seven days and seven nights. Dozens of strong men besieged Luoning Mountain. The casualties were extremely heavy, but Luoning Mountain still died."
"After hundreds of years, the Holy Blood Cult disappeared, but later the Holy Blood Cult resurrected. Someone obtained the blood refining array in Luoning Mountain and the method of refining the Blood Essence Pill. They also discovered that through blood refining
The formation cultivates the Demon Heart Blood Lotus."
"This person is called the Blood Lotus Supreme! The Blood Lotus Supreme established the Holy Blood Sect again, and once again set off a bloody storm in the western seas."
"However, the ending of the Blood Lotus Supreme is the same as that of the Blood Demon Supreme. In the end, he was besieged by many powerful men and died."
"But the Holy Blood Cult was not completely destroyed. Instead, it was passed down secretly."
"For thousands of years, the Holy Blood Cult has become the Blood Demon Cult today. Although all forces have been suppressing the Blood Demon Cult, the Blood Demon Cult has never been able to be exterminated!"
"The blood refining formation and the method of cultivating the Demonic Heart Blood Lotus are becoming more and more popular."
"To this day, anyone who can master the blood refining formation and the method of cultivating the Demonic Heart Blood Lotus is called a Blood Demon Cultist."
Speaking of this, Taoist Tongxin said helplessly: "Today's Blood Demon Sect is no longer simply a force, but a group of evil cultivators who want to take shortcuts in cultivation."
Zhao Gao suddenly realized, no wonder they had never been able to find detailed information about the Blood Demon Cult. The Blood Demon Cult was originally broken into pieces.
In the past, the Holy Blood Cult was a force, whether it was good or evil, it was a force with a beginning and an end.
But today's Blood Demon Sect is more like a group of cultists. They have no unified force and no leader. They are just a collective name for a group of people.
No wonder the Blood Demon Cult has been killing them all.
After figuring this out, Zhao Gao asked again: "What can we get?"
Although he has been looking for information about the Blood Demon Cult, Taoist Tongxin came to ask for his help. Since he needs his help, he must pay enough.
Taoist Tongxin didn't know that Zhao Gao was looking for information about the Blood Demon Cult, so he had already prepared the reward.
"Three Dao Heart Fruits!"
As he spoke, he waved his hand and three jade boxes were placed in front of Zhao Gao.
There are three green fruits in the jade box. Although they are separated by the jade box, Zhao Gao can still feel the strong Taoist charm from them.
"Tao Heart Fruit! A spiritual fruit that can polish your Tao Heart!"
Zhao Gao's eyes lit up.
This thing is a real treasure.
Tao Xin Guan is named after the Tao Heart Fruit, which is also known as the most precious spiritual fruit in Yuluo Sea.
Polishing the Taoist heart cannot directly improve the artistic conception, nor can it directly improve the cultivation level, but it can improve the practitioner's potential in artistic conception.
The Awakening Spirit Fruit can enhance the artistic conception and allow people to gain enlightenment in a short period of time, but the Dao Heart Fruit can increase the potential of artistic conception, which can also be understood as the upper limit. It can be regarded as a kind of heavenly material and earthly treasure that breaks the bottleneck of artistic conception.
Of course, the efficacy of the Dao Heart Fruit is not to the point of being heaven-defying. It can be seen from the fact that Tongxin Taoist is only on the third level of the Divine Intention. The efficacy of the Dao Heart Fruit can only be effective on the first and second levels of the Divine Intention.
But even so, it's enough to drive people crazy.
There are countless people in this world who are trapped in the first and second levels of the divine realm throughout their lives. It’s not that they don’t practice hard enough, but that their potential has been exhausted.
Zhao Gao looked at the three Dao Heart Fruits and then collected them calmly.
"If I guessed correctly, the Devil's Heart and Blood Lotus is in the Yu family's residence!" He said softly.
"Um!"
Taoist Tongxin looked at him in surprise.
Zhao Gao explained: "In Kyoto, the only one with ties to the Blood Demon Sect is the Yu family. The old head of the Yu family, Yu Xie, should have a great relationship with the Blood Demon Sect. Maybe he is a member of the Blood Demon Sect."
"In recent days, people from the Blood Demon Sect have been in and out of the Yu family's mansion many times!"
They have long been eyeing the Yu family, but unfortunately there are many experts in the Yu family, and the guards are tighter than the imperial city. Even with extraordinary snare capabilities, it is difficult to penetrate.
Taoist Tongxin nodded slightly. The Yu family has a relationship with the Blood Demon Sect, so this is not a surprise.
"I'm going to visit Yu's house tomorrow night. Are you interested?"
Zhao Gao thought for a while and said, "Okay!"
He needed more information about the Blood Demon Cult. Since Taoist Tongxin was willing to take the lead, he naturally didn't mind following behind.
At this moment, a member of the snare hurriedly walked into the room holding a bird with red wings.
"Sir, the red-feathered bird has sent a message!"
Zhao Gao looked at the Red Feathered Bird, his expression suddenly became solemn, he stood up and took the Red Feathered Bird.
Bird messaging is the most commonly used method of communication in Luowang.
When it comes to flying birds to send messages, we have to talk about Jin Yu, one of the four owners of Dali Xueyi Building.
When the net was first established, Jin Yu was one of the first people to join the net, and her task was to raise birds for the net.
Over the years, the birds raised by Jinyu have become indispensable in the snare.
From the first gray-feathered finches, to the blue-feathered finches, and then to the red-feathered finches, Golden Feather showed great talent in raising birds.
Today's red-feathered birds can not only fly three thousand miles a day, but can also cross mountains and seas. They are definitely excellent birds for communication.
However, the cultivation of red-feathered birds is very difficult and requires a lot of resources. Currently, the blue-feathered birds are mostly used in the net.
Now there are only a few red-feathered birds around Qin Wei, and they will not be used lightly if it is not important.
You can't just let one bird fly when sending messages, because one bird is likely to cause accidents, especially for important matters, and all accidents must be avoided.
Therefore, when using birds to send messages, three to five are used at the same time to avoid accidents.
The red-feathered birds around Qin Wei are a messenger team, and will only be used for crucial matters.
That's why Zhao Gao's expression became solemn when he saw the red-feathered bird.
Zhao Gao took the red-feathered bird, took off the letter, opened it and glanced at it. In an instant, a sinister look flashed across his narrow eyes.
Blood Demon Sect, Qilan Island, blood refining array, tens of millions of people died, beware of the existence of blood refining array in Kyoto!
With just one sentence, Zhao Gao instantly understood the seriousness of the matter.
