Chapter 146 Compensation and Rewards (two chapters in one)
The four of them did not expect that due to their negligence in not covering up the spiritual energy fluctuations of the "Open Mountain Seal" collected, the middle-aged cultivator would follow the spiritual energy traces along the way. At this time, their true energy and mana had only recovered more than half of Lang Feng's.
The injury has not healed yet, only Zhao Kuangyin still has intact fighting strength, but even a fool knows that unless a cultivator who is just cultivating Qi into the body possesses a powerful ancient treasure, he will not be the opponent of a cultivator in the later stage of incarnation.
Zhu Ci was blaming himself in his heart for being greedy to take possession of the other party's "Open Mountain Seal" when he saw how powerful it was. However, he failed to refine it in time to erase the soul mark. Fortunately, the owner came to find it.
I'm afraid the situation is more dire than good.
In fact, it is useless even if he is cautious. Unless he is not greedy and does not collect the "Seal of the Mountain", no matter how much he refines it, it is impossible to refine a top-quality magic weapon and erase the mark of the soul in it in a short period of time. Because of this
The magic weapon is basically the magic weapon of the master of the "Earth Spirit Sect". This time it is only lent to his son for protection when walking in the world. Among them is the soul mark of the master of the "Earth Spirit Sect" who is in the refining and returning to the void stage. Zhu Cineng cannot refine it at all.
It's useless no matter how long it takes.
The middle-aged cultivator was originally very angry. He first flew with his weapon and sent the injured young man back to a nearby courtyard at the "Di Ling Gate" for him to recover from his injuries. He also asked the disciples of the other courtyard to take good care of the young sect leader. Di Ling Gate
This is a local sect with many other monasteries in the local area, so it is not difficult to find a safer place.
After doing this, I then remembered that the most important treasure in the sect, the "Seal of the Founding Mountain", had been taken away by the other party. This was the sect master's magic weapon, which was very important. Think about it, the Oriental Demon Cult, as the top sect in China, only has a few acquired spiritual treasures.
It's just that as a mid-sized sect that is much worse than it, possessing the acquired spiritual treasure is something that is unthinkable.
In fact, being able to possess a top-quality magic weapon second only to the Houtian Lingbao is something that even a medium-sized sect like the "Earth Spirit Sect" can only meet but cannot ask for. It can be said that there are only a few top-quality magic weapons in the entire Earth Spirit Sect.
The sect leader's special magic weapon "Opening Mountain Seal" will most likely be offered to the sect and will only be used when something big happens to the sect.
In addition to the preciousness of the best magic weapon, there is another reason, that is, there are many sects who know the magic weapon "Open Mountain Seal". If the magic weapon is lost like this, think about what happens if those sects and cultivators who have quarrels with the "Earth Spirit Sect"
Everyone will laugh when they know that the magic weapon originally belonging to the master of the "Earth Spirit Sect" has been snatched away by others; and those disciples will even doubt the strength of the sect. After all, what do you think of a sect that can't even keep the master's magic weapon?
It doesn't look like it has a future either.
If this develops, he and the "Earth Spirit Sect" will inevitably become the laughing stock of the cultivation world, reduce the cohesion of the sect and even affect the overall strength of the sect! The more the middle-aged cultivator thinks about it, the more serious it becomes, so he does not meditate to restore his mana.
He hurriedly chased after him. It was also thanks to Zhu Ci that he had not learned the spell to seal the breath of the magic weapon. Otherwise, even if the owner of the "Earth Spirit Sect" came in person, he would not be able to find the specific location of the magic weapon. How could he be hit even though he was more than 500 miles away?
The young cultivator came after me.
After chasing this hill, although Zhao Kuangyin and the others were still hiding in the illusion formation, to the middle-aged cultivator who could clearly sense the fluctuations of the "Open Mountain Seal" mana in the aura induction, they were as eye-catching as a torch in the dark. He only needed a slight
It can be destroyed by casting a spell.
However, after all, he has been recuperating for hundreds of years and is much calmer than ordinary cultivators. At this time, he has calmed down. Those cultivators look young but their cultivation level is not low. They are all lacking in magic weapons and spells.
The inherited casual cultivators are either geniuses from small or medium-sized sects or disciples from large sects. If you just injure them, there is still room for turning; if you really kill them, you will suffer a death blow and may even attract the resentment of the other sect.
.
Anyway, only some people on our side were injured and the magic weapon was taken away. Now that the people have been treated and the magic weapon will be recovered, how is it different from the devil to kill these people? I am afraid it will affect the reputation of my sect. Moreover, the Northern Han Dynasty and
Nan Tang originally didn't have much hatred towards him, and this mission was just a test for Nan Tang. If his personal behavior really caused a conflict between the two countries, he would definitely be blamed by Nan Tang, which would give him an excuse to reduce the number, or even terminate it.
Absolute sectarian worship.
After all, his sect is not the only supporter behind the Southern Tang Dynasty. Others may be happy to see his decline and take a share of the vacated share of the "Earth Spirit Sect". The middle-aged cultivators are loyal to the sect accordingly.
Hui had a lot to think about, so he decided to just get the magic weapon back and "slightly punish" these people. However, he still decided to scare them and said that his cultivation would be abolished. He could see the despair in their eyes or begging for mercy.
Being ugly can also calm the bad breath in his heart.
But as soon as he said the words and was about to cast a spell to take back the "Open Mountain Seal", he felt a monstrous force coming down from the sky like a huge mountain, suppressing him and unable to move. If his own momentum was that of a hundred-foot mountain, then the opponent's momentum was that of a towering mountain.
The thousand-foot peak that reached into the clouds! There was no way he could compete with it. Even in front of the elder with the highest cultivation level in the sect, he had never felt such a powerful aura. Drops of cold sweat broke out on his head. He stiffly raised his head and looked above him, only to see a figure.
The middle-aged Taoist wearing a purple robe has a gentle complexion, but his whole body exudes unparalleled majesty, as if he has absorbed the emotions of the sky into himself. Man is the will of heaven, and the unity of heaven and man! The middle-aged cultivator's pupils are tightened. According to this person
Yes, he is the only master he has ever seen in his life!
"Pindao You Longzi has seen fellow Taoist." The purple-robed cultivator folded his hands behind his back and said calmly to the middle-aged cultivator, "I wonder why these two disciples of Pindao and their men offended fellow Taoist and actually showed up.
Such vicious words? Although my two disciples are not high in cultivation, they are also from the Northern Han Dynasty. The Endi Ling Sect should be fellow Taoists of the Southern Tang Dynasty’s cultivation sect. Does this mean that the Southern Tang Dynasty is harmful to the Northern Han Dynasty? If so
As the leader of the cultivators of the Northern Han Dynasty, Pindao had to intervene in this matter." The person who came was none other than Yunlong, who transformed into You Longzi.
Yunlong secretly praised Zhao Kuangyin and the others after they broke out of the formation. The performance of his two apprentices did not disappoint him. They actually broke through the "Wutu Confused Heart Formation" so easily, which was used by cultivators in the Huashen stage. Although it included
They used some strategies and sneak attacks, but it also reflected their wit. After all, when facing an enemy with a higher level of cultivation than themselves, they must use all effective means to reduce the gap between them, otherwise it would be stupid. He Yunlong didn't want to
His apprentice is a dull person who doesn't know how to adapt to situations and only knows how to fight hard when encountering problems.
However, regarding their subsequent performance, Yunlong still shook his head a little bit. There were countless things like this in the world of cultivation. However, when the magic weapon was much more powerful, it was not refined or imprisoned. Instead, it was worn arrogantly. This showed their lack of experience.
.
In fact, in response to this situation, the cultivation world has long developed a spell that can temporarily seal off the connection between the magic weapon and the master's soul. However, the training requirements are not low, at least you need to have the cultivation level of the divine transformation stage. Yuan Wuzi
and Zhao Kuangyin are just approaching. Their cultivation has not yet broken through to the Divine Transformation Stage. However, Zhu Ci and Lang Feng have both advanced to the Divine Transformation Stage for two years and still cannot use this spell. In addition to their lack of experience and failure to realize their mistakes, it also shows that
They didn't pay attention to such a useful spell.
After seeing this, Yunlong already knew that they would be chased sooner or later. As expected, it didn't take long for the middle-aged cultivator to chase him and send harsh words. Yunlong knew that it was time to end, otherwise, according to the temperament of his two disciples, he would
After destroying their cultivation level, they were going to kill them and they would definitely fight to the death. In order to avoid a bigger conflict, he showed up and suppressed the opponent.
"Unity" hat.
The cold sweat on the middle-aged cultivator's head suddenly dropped. The label of "undermining the unity of the two countries" can be big or small. At the most, it means declaring war on behalf of one's own side and the other side. As a cultivator, does he also represent the Southern Tang cultivator world?
What about the declaration of war by the Northern Han Dynasty cultivator? Such a major event is not something that he, a small cultivator of the Earth Spirit Sect, can take on. Even their sect leader cannot take on such a big thing.
The personal conflicts between some cultivators are just private disputes and do not mean much. The gap between these two statements is too big.
Of course, the middle-aged cultivator did not dare to bear such a big title. He forced himself to calm down and bowed to Yunlong first and then said: "Are you Senior You Longzi? As expected, Lan Quan, the elder of the Diling Sect with extraordinary manners and high cultivation level, has seen him before.
Senior. I have long admired the heroic deeds of senior who fought against the Eastern Demon Cult alone."
He said some compliments and his mood gradually stabilized and continued: "Xiao Dao just made a joke with a few Taoist friends just now. The purpose was just to get back the magic weapon of the sect and to vent his anger. There was no other meaning. As for why he had talked to several Taoists before.
When friends conflict, they are all within the limits of the mission. Xiaodao personally admires his seniors very much. And why the conflict occurred is just a misunderstanding. Xiaodao did not know that these people are related to you, otherwise he would not
I didn't take the risk of offending my seniors and took action against several fellow Taoists." After saying that, he bowed to Zhao Kuangyin, who had already removed the magic array and revealed his body on the hill, and apologized: "All fellow Taoists are at this time.
It's our fault. Don't worry, we will compensate you later. But I still have to take the 'Open Mountain Seal' back to the door."
Then
He turned to Yunlong and smiled bitterly: "Senior, this 'Opening Mountain Seal' is not only a top-quality magic weapon, but also the master's magic weapon. It represents the face of my 'Earth Spirit Sect', so I must bring it back no matter what. But I am also willing to
Make corresponding compensation. As an elder in the sect, Xiaodao has accumulated some savings over hundreds of years. I believe it is enough to be worth the value of the 'Opening Mountain Seal'." What he said was extremely flattering and his attitude was very low. He really deserves to be alive.
The centuries-old fox's face is thicker than the city wall. He just yelled "thief" and fought to the death. Now he has a "fellow Taoist" who seems to be so affectionate. This kind of face-changing skill even Yunlong can't compare to himself.
The rest was very simple. Faced with Yunlong's strength, Lan Quan naturally chose to lower his head. After some bargaining, he exchanged a large amount of weapon refining materials and rare medicinal materials for the Kaishan Seal. Due to Yunlong's certain emotions, Lanquan also
A lot of additional compensation was made as the "mental loss" of Zhao Kuangyin and his party as well as the death and injury compensation of the Northern Han Army. In fact, in this world, cultivators who hurt mortals have never had the habit of compensating because cultivators just killed a few people.
Mortals are like trampling a few ants to death, and no one dares to ask for compensation from them.
Lan Quan was hemorrhaging money this time and almost wiped out all his savings for many years. However, in terms of value, he still made a profit because top-quality magic weapons are based on highly cherished refining materials and are refined by highly skilled craftsmen.
Refined by a master, it is not something that anyone can just produce the best. Of course, a cultivator will use a magic weapon from the beginning of his practice and refine it into a natal magic weapon until he reaches the point of refining the spirit and returning to the void.
The magic weapon will also continue to advance as his cultivation progresses and become the best magic weapon. Apart from these various methods, there is no other way to refine the best magic weapon.
After Lan Quan paid so much in exchange for the "Kaishan Seal", he also gained the Northern Han Dynasty's willingness to live in harmony with the Southern Tang Dynasty. He was able to gain some rewards after returning. Of course, the disputed land naturally belonged to the Northern Han Dynasty.
After all, the result of the Han Dynasty's unreasonable temptation in the Southern Tang Dynasty was a bloody blow. In addition, it was also confirmed that You Longzi was terrible, which completely dispelled the contempt for the Northern Han Dynasty's cultivation world.
"Master just let him go like this?" Zhao Kuangyin said angrily as he stood in Yunlong, while Yuan Wuzi also followed him. As for the two demons Zhu Ci and Lang Feng, they stayed slightly away and did not eavesdrop on the conversation between their master and apprentice to show respect.
"Of course you still want to kill him or seriously injure him?" Yunlong replied calmly.
"After all, the other party is a cultivator in the late stage of divine transformation. After cultivating to such a situation, he will always have some dignity of his own. Don't look at him just groveling in front of his master. It is also for the benefit of his own sect, which shows his loyalty to the sect. This kind of thing
Talents are scary people! Once he throws away the shackles of the sect, he may not have the courage to fight with his master. Being able to meet these conditions is already close to the opponent's bottom line. If I push too hard, it may cause him to rebound, and the gain will not be worth the loss.
Already."
"So Master, disciple, understands." Zhao Kuangyin suddenly understood and replied to Yunlong with admiration. He was originally a little dissatisfied with Lan Quan for daring to bargain with Master but Yunlong let him go so easily, but he understood after listening to Yunlong's explanation.
The reason why.
"These are the rules of the world of cultivation. It's not surprising that you are not a cultivator and don't understand these. Of course, the reason why Lan Quan dared to bargain with his teacher just now is because his cultivation has reached the late stage of Qi Transformation, so he may be considered to have good qualifications.
You can enter the stage of returning to the void after practicing for hundreds of years, and as an elder of a medium-sized sect, you have the confidence to have powerful support behind you. Kuangyin, you must remember that when people live in the world and face various situations, only their own strength and power can
The most direct reliance is personal strength, and among them, personal strength is the most important! As an emperor in the future, your cultivation level will definitely not be higher than that of most cultivators, but you also have your own advantages, which are the merits of the emperor's dragon energy in governing the world!
Merit is equivalent to your strength. If you have enough merit, even gods and monsters will respect you. The three emperors and five emperors in ancient times can gain merit by governing the human race and pacifying the world, and finally become enlightened and become saints and ascend to heaven. If you work hard enough, your achievements in the future will be even lower than theirs.
It won't be too bad. And all this depends on your own efforts." Yuan Long said earnestly to Zhao Kuangyin. He had high hopes for this apprentice, so he took the trouble to explain it to him at this time.
"Master and disciple understand. Disciple must be careful in the future. But you said that the disciple will become the emperor in the future and I don't know when...?" Zhao Kuangyin nodded to show his understanding and asked the question in his heart embarrassedly because he could no longer continue.
As a practitioner, I am still looking forward to becoming an emperor.
"Don't worry. Your achievements now are already great enough. As long as you return to China and participate in political affairs in a few years and accumulate enough qualifications, I will have my own arrangements for this matter when you ascend the throne and proclaim yourself emperor." Yunlong smiled slightly and stroked his beard and said confidently.
It was as if the throne was dethroned and dynasties changed at the turn of his hand.
"Master has the final say in everything." Zhao Kuangyin didn't ask any more questions after hearing this.
"Zhu Ci, Lang Feng." Yunlong said again. "The little demon is thanking the Taoist Master for the elixir he gave us earlier to help us enter the stage of transformation. I wonder what the Chief has ordered this time?" Zhu Ci and Lang Feng listened to Yunlong.
He immediately fell to his knees as soon as he opened his mouth.
"You two have tried your best and suffered a lot in the past few years. As Kuang Yin's master, it's appropriate for me to comfort you. You were also injured this time. Kuang Yin and Yuan Wu were able to break through the formation and get out of the formation."
Your contribution is indispensable. I have made clear the rewards and punishments. Here are two 'Reborn Pills' that can change the bones of the Book of Changes and improve your qualifications. You can increase your cultivation speed by three times if you take them in the future." Yunlong turned his hand and took out two yellow-orange-orange pills.
A fragrant elixir
"Thank you, Taoist Master, I will do my best to assist you in the future." Zhu Ci and Lang Feng did not expect such benefits and immediately kowtowed and thanked him.
(The conflict is over and a new situation will begin tomorrow. I won’t ask for tickets if I get five thousand yuan. Please order it first. It’s too bleak...like a dragon running in tears)
