Bai Ran looked at the card in his hand that was signed by the leaders of each faction and felt extremely depressed!
The recruitment order should be genuine, because the spiritual emblem representing the leader of a faction cannot be faked at all. But he really doesn't want to just obey the order and do it!
Because from the other party's mouth, Bai Ran had already learned the news of the demonic invasion, and knew that a catastrophe in the world of immortality was inevitable.
Whether the seven sects can survive this level is not yet said, but there will definitely be tens of thousands of immortal cultivators who have fallen among them. Even the monks in the pill-forming stage, I am afraid there will be many people who have their pills shattered and died.
So as soon as he learned this shocking news, what Bai Ran wanted to do most now was to return to the cave immediately, and then come out in seclusion for decades.
But he also knew that this was just an extravagant wish. As a disciple of the Seven Sects, there was no way he could escape from this fire so easily.
Just as Bai Ran was thinking about it, the male monk from the Hidden Moon Sect opposite him who announced that he had been recruited, said with a smile on his face:
"Have this junior brother seen clearly? Can you tell me your name and cultivation level now? We will have more cooperation in the future!"
Bai Ran calmed down, looked at this position, and then at the more than thirty monks behind him. Among them, there were only three who had established the foundation, and the rest were only disciples in the Qi refining stage. This made Bai Ran
I felt a little more at ease, at least it didn't look like I was performing any difficult task.
Thinking of this, Bai Ran cupped his fists and said:
"Qingyun Sect Bai Ran, early stage of foundation building!"
Although they were both Foundation Establishment monks, each other's cultivation levels could be seen at a glance. However, out of politeness, Bai Ran still said it honestly. After all, the other party was in the later Foundation Establishment stage, and his cultivation level was not a little higher than his. He didn't
Be willing to offend the other party easily.
But then, Bai Ran asked a little doubtfully:
"How can Xiong be sure that there is no problem with my identity, so I can stop me directly and show me the recruitment order? Isn't it just based on this Qingyun Sect's clothes?"
Bai Ran originally saw this group of monks from Huadaowu and Hidden Moon Sect, and originally wanted to stagger away and run away, but he didn't expect this sharp-eyed guy to dodged a few times and stopped him on the side.
, he announced his recruitment.
"Haha! I met my junior brother when I was on a mission before! I didn't expect that junior brother Han would succeed in building the foundation after not seeing each other for several years. This is really a gratifying and congratulatory thing!" This thirty-year-old member of the Hidden Moon Sect
The man smiled slightly and said something that surprised Bai Ran.
"Your Mightiness?"
When Bai Ran said this, he felt that the other party looked familiar, as if he had indeed seen him during the Blood Trial!
"I am Xuan Le, one of the external affairs officers of the Biyue Sect. Last time I accompanied Master Nishang to lead the team, I witnessed with my own eyes the shocking generosity of Junior Brother Han!" The man chuckled and said with profound meaning.
At this time, Bai Ran suddenly realized that this person was one of the four foundation-building leaders of the Hidden Moon Sect at that time, but he didn't pay much attention at the time, so the impression was a bit blurry. But when Bai Ran thought about it, he became a little shocked again.
It was just a quick visit back then. It was really unbelievable that this person could recognize me at a glance from such a distance.
"I know that Junior Brother Han is on his way in such a hurry. There must be something urgent. But the manpower for the task I have to carry out is really insufficient. I have to help Junior Brother." Xuanye said very politely.
But when Bai Ran heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he couldn't help thinking with a wry smile:
"You, a monk in the late stage of foundation establishment, have already taken out the recruitment order. Even if I don't want to listen, that's fine! I'm afraid as soon as I say this, I will be labeled as disobedient!"
Bai Ran thought like this, then looked at the other three foundation-building monks standing behind Xuanye. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and answer:
"Since Senior Brother Xuan has said so, Han will naturally obey the order! However, I still have something important to report to the head of our sect. I hope Senior Brother Xuan will send someone to deliver the news!"
Then Bai Ran told everything that happened in Yanling Castle in detail. Of course, Bai Ran only vaguely mentioned how he escaped.
But just like this, Xuan Le and others were shocked. They hurriedly sent two Qi Refining Stage disciples to each faction to deliver the message, and then continued to lead Bai Ran on the road with a somewhat ugly expression.
Based on their strength, even if they knew that the Yan family was colluding with the devil, they did not dare to launch an attack to save people. They had to hand over this hot potato to people sent by the seven sects. Of course, this news came to nothing.
The authenticity still needs to be verified by the people behind.
On the way, Bai Ran finally followed him
He learned from his mouth that the mission of this trip was to strengthen a spiritual equipment with a large reserve. The original guards were simply not enough to withstand the sneak attack of a small team of demonic monks.
Bai Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief knowing that his mission was not to be cannon fodder and fight head-on with the people of the Six Demonic Sects.
In fact, even if he could return to Qingyun Sect, he would probably be sent out immediately, and the task he would get might not be better than this.
Although this mission is still somewhat dangerous, as long as you are careful, the possibility of escaping unscathed is still very high. After all, their spirit stone mine is only one of the dozen or so larger mines, and the other party wants to sneak attack the seven sects.
As for the mine sources, I’m afraid we need to start with the largest ones first.
Bai Ran thought this way, and the resistance in his heart naturally disappeared. In the next few days, he got to know Xuan Le and other monks a lot.
A few days later, their team of monks finally arrived at a huge wasteland in the Yue Kingdom. The Lingshi mine was located in a large canyon in the wasteland that was more than a hundred feet deep.
Under the leadership of Xuan Le, the group of people flew directly into the canyon covered by the formation. At the same time, several monks from the Seven Sects also flew out from here to greet them.
The original guard leader of the Spirit Mine was an old man who was in the early stages of foundation building and belonged to Tianque Castle. The other five or six people were only at the Qi Refining stage.
With such a weak guard force, it is no wonder that the upper echelons of the Seven Factions were so anxious to send out support personnel.
The old man who claimed to be Yu Xing let them into a huge cave dwelling in the canyon, where Bai Ran and others listened to him tell about the details of the Lingshi mine. Then, Xuan Le vigorously and resolutely deployed defenses.
thing.
He took out more than a dozen formation flags and formation disks, and asked the monks to set up a Four Evil Formation that could be attacked and defended under the illusion formation. He divided Bai Ran and other monks into groups and took turns to guard near the spiritual mine.
Patrol the sentry to prevent surprise attacks from foreign enemies. If there are no monks on duty, you can meditate and practice to increase your magic power.
Bai Ran was very satisfied with Xuan Le's arrangement.
In this way, he will have time to make up for the loopholes in his strength!
After experiencing a fight with the young master of the Ghost Spirit Sect, Bai Ran clearly felt that the previous method of relying on agility and strategy to defeat the enemy was simply not enough to cope with the huge gap in strength. When encountering someone like
For such a powerful character as the young master of the Ghost Spirit Sect, everything he had maintained in the past seemed pale and feeble. Even the talisman he had placed high hopes on was almost taken away by the opponent in one fell swoop, unable to reproduce the miraculous effect of the final word in the past.
If the poisonous cloud of "Blue Fire Miasma" hadn't accidentally taken effect, I'm afraid he would have been buried under the loess, and even his soul might have been taken away by the other party, and he was tortured in every possible way. Thinking of this terrible consequence that life is worse than death,
Bai Ran felt that his heart was so cold and chilly!
Bai Ran was already very afraid of top-level secret techniques of the demonic path such as the blood spirit method!
He knew very well that if he met the young master of the Ghost Spirit Sect again, he would probably have no choice but to surrender to the opponent's secret method and wait for death. And Qingyuan Sword will never be cultivated to the elixir-forming stage, and its magical power is simply not enough to compete with the opponent.
contend.
In this chaotic period when the Six Demonic Sects invaded the Yue Kingdom and the seven major sects fought back, I am afraid that fights and killings among immortal cultivators will become a common occurrence. In this period, the matter of immortality seems to have become secondary.
Rapidly increasing strength so that one can save one's life during the attack has become the primary goal.
As a result, his originally planned cultivation steps must be changed.
The Qingyuan Sword Technique will be put on hold for the time being, and I plan to practice the "Puppet Technique" that can greatly enhance my strength.
After witnessing the tyranny of the machine puppets, Bai Ran believed that even if he only mastered one level of puppetry, it would be enough for him to have a certain ability to protect himself. After all, he had dozens of machine puppets ready-made.
Of course, he also had to study the Puppet Scripture, hoping to be able to create some simple puppets in a short period of time, so that the "puppet technique" could become a continuous combat power in his foundation-building period.
After thinking about it several times, Bai Ran felt that his decision was right, so he practiced the "puppet technique" at other times outside of his shift. At the same time, he also used some simple materials on hand to try to make elementary puppets.
A machine beast, a doll-like puppet that can only attack and bite.
