Seeing that Bai Ran didn't mean to refuse, the silver-haired old man was secretly happy and said more sincerely:
"Don't worry, fellow Taoist, although we hold the title of supreme elder in the sect, we don't actually need to do anything, let alone have any mundane affairs. We are just a deterrent. We can completely concentrate on our own affairs.
Every year, the disciples in the sect will offer thousands of spiritual stones to us as offerings
It is for our cultivation. And if we have any special needs such as elixirs and materials, we can also ask the disciples below to do it without having to bother and search for it ourselves. In short, as the elder of our Luoyun Sect, Taoist friends will decide on the treatment.
It won’t be half less than in other sects.”
"Senior brother is right, and although Brother Bai has successfully condensed the Nascent Soul and has entered the Nascent Soul stage, he must still be confused and unfamiliar with the condensation of the Nascent Soul. It's not that we brothers are boasting, the two of us
Although for hundreds of years it has been
I am trapped in the early stage of Nascent Soul, and the Dharma has advanced to a higher level, but I still have some unique experiences in cultivation. If fellow Taoists are willing to join our sect, the two of us will naturally tell them frankly, so that Brother Bai can avoid some detours."
The monk surnamed Lu also slowly persuaded.
After all, the addition of a Nascent Soul Stage monk to the sect will almost immediately increase the strength of the sect. Although it is still not as good as the Ancient Sword Sect, it is on par with Baiqiaoyuan. Luoyun Sect's status in Yunmeng Mountain
, it will also become as stable as Mount Tai.
Bai Ran listened to the two people's invitations, and was a little moved by the conditions mentioned by the monk surnamed Lu.
He naturally knew what it meant to have a monk who had been condensing the Nascent Soul for hundreds of years give him guidance when he had just become a Yuanying monk. Maybe this would save him decades or even hundreds of years of hard training.
As for staying in Luoyun Sect, he had not thought about it at first, but he had never seriously considered the pros and cons. Now that the other party has taken the initiative, he has to think about it carefully.
Is it better to continue to be a casual cultivator, or to become an elder of the Luoyun Sect as the tide goes, or to simply choose a more suitable sect to join.
After lowering his head and pondering for a while, Bai Ran raised his head and said seriously:
"Mr. Bai appreciates the kindness of the two Taoist friends. However, this matter is important, and I have just successfully had a baby, so I am still a little uneasy. I hope you two can consider it for a few days, and I will reply to you in three days."
Hearing Bai Ran's words, the two silver-haired old men couldn't help but look at each other. Then the old man only thought about it briefly and agreed a little embarrassedly:
"Ashamed! It seems that my senior brother is a little impatient. Naturally, this matter should be carefully considered by fellow Taoists for a few days. Well, I will mark this place as a restricted area in the past few days to prevent disciples from the sect from disturbing my fellow Taoists. Three days later
, the two of us will visit fellow Taoist together again."
After saying this, the two silver-haired old men chatted with Bai Ran for a few more words, and then left wisely.
Bai Ran politely sent them outside the cave, then returned to the hall and sat down, frowning, not knowing what to think about anymore.
A white shadow flashed outside the hall, and Yin Yue returned to her original form as a white fox at some point, and walked in gracefully.
"Why, the magic power is not enough to support the transformation." Bai Ran glanced at the little fox and said strangely.
"Yes, Master! With the magic power of my weapon spirit body and a little spiritual power of the demon fox body, I can only support the human form for so long. The next time I can transform into a human form, I have to wait another month." The little fox raised his petite body.
The head spoke in a depressed voice.
"When you really advance to the eighth level monster, you can transform into a human form forever. Don't be so impatient now." Bai Ran said lightly, "It's true, I have survived all these years in the cauldron. It's not bad at all." Hundreds of years. Besides, with the help of Master's elixirs, it might be much earlier than I expected!" Yinyue said seriously.
Bai Ran nodded when he heard this, and suddenly asked in a deep voice:
"Speaking of the Xutian Cauldron, I used to think that my cultivation was not enough, so I never asked you about it. But now that my Nascent Soul is mature, you should be able to talk about it. After all, you have been in the cauldron for such a long time. , it’s impossible not to know a little bit about how to open a cauldron. And I’m very curious about what other treasures there are in the cauldron besides the Heaven-Building Pill!”
"Yinyue does know the method of opening the cauldron. But I'm afraid the master will be a little disappointed." After being stunned for a moment, Yinyue said with a sigh.
"Oh! Why, with my current cultivation level, I still can't open this cauldron?" Bai Ran touched his chin and said with a little disbelief.
"Master doesn't know. When I and several other ancient treasures escaped from the cauldron, it was not because we could resist the constraints of heavenly spiritual treasures such as the Xutian Cauldron. It was because of the dry blue ice flames on the cauldron and the monks who were waiting for us to enter the temple. If you are touched, we will have the opportunity to take advantage of it." Yin Yue said slowly.
"Tongtian Lingbao, what is this? Isn't the Xutian Cauldron an ancient treasure? From your tone, it seems that opening the Xutian Cauldron has something to do with the dry blue ice flame." Bai Ran had a look of doubt on his face and asked a little surprised. road.
"Actually, the Tongtian Lingbao is also an ancient treasure. This is the name of the ancient monks. However, only the treasures with great magical powers among the ancient treasures can be called this kind of name. The Xutian Baoding is such a Tongtian Lingbao. Although I I don’t know what kind of magical power this cauldron has, but it is definitely far beyond the power of ordinary ancient treasures. As for the dry blue ice flame, it is the key to opening the Xutian Cauldron. No, it should be said that it is the number one person who controls the Xutian Cauldron. Step. Only by refining this flame can the master have the opportunity to control this spiritual treasure." Yinyue's tone suddenly became solemn.
"Tiantian Lingbao! Even the ancient monks called it this. It seems that this treasure is really extraordinary. But since refining the ice flame is just the first step, is there anything else to do next? You might as well tell it together. That's it." Bai Ran asked with a hint of joy instead of showing any regrets.
He knew very well that the treasure that could be used under so many conditions only meant that the power of this treasure was far beyond his expectation. This was naturally a great surprise. As long as the Void Heaven Cauldron was in his hands, no matter how harsh the conditions were, it would always be enough. One day he will be able to control this treasure. In this regard, Bai Ran is quite confident.
"I don't know what else needs to be done next. Because after the master refines the dry blue ice flame, he will naturally be prompted for the next step. I only know so much." Yin Yue shook her head lightly, Said honestly.
"That's it! This is really a bit tricky. But that's okay! Let's refine the dry blue ice flame first, and then talk about other things. By the way! You don't seem to have mentioned any other treasures in the cauldron." Bai Ran was a little disappointed at first, Then he took a deep look at Xiaohu and then asked again slowly.
"Yinyue doesn't mean to hide anything. But except for the two Tian-Building Pills, there are no other ancient treasures in the cauldron. There is only one empty cauldron left. After all, the Xutian Cauldron is on hold in the Xutian Palace. Over the years, there have been intermittent monks with great supernatural powers who can use some special means to touch the dry blue ice flames on the cauldron. At this time, one or two treasures will always take the opportunity to fly out. In this way, the cauldron is Naturally, all the treasures are gradually gone. What you saw last time in Xutian Palace is the only remaining ancient treasure." Yin Yue explained uneasily, fearing that Bai Ran would be dissatisfied with it.
"I see. It doesn't matter anymore! With my current level of cultivation, I can't even look down on ordinary ancient treasures. Being able to use this Void Sky Cauldron for my own use is the best result." Bai Ran did not show any annoyance.
Se, instead said calmly, as if he was somewhat expecting this.
"Yinyue admires the master for being so generous! What the master said is indeed true. As far as I know, even in ancient times, there were at most fifty or sixty ancient treasures that could be titled as spiritual treasures. Each of them
Almost all the pieces can be similar to the overwhelming ones.
To be honest, when I first saw that the owner’s vial could accelerate the ripening of the elixir, I almost thought that this vial was also a spiritual treasure. But after thinking about it carefully, I realized that it was unlikely.”
Yinyue suddenly chuckled and said.
"Oh, why. Is my small bottle of magical power not as good as those spiritual treasures?" After hearing this, Bai Ran was slightly stunned and asked with some disbelief.
"That's not true. Regardless of whether the master's vial has other magical powers, the ripening elixir alone is enough to be proud of all spiritual treasures. After all, no matter how powerful other spiritual treasures are, they still have to follow the rules of this world.
The laws of heaven and earth. Those spiritual treasures only amplify these laws.
, just for use. But the effect of the vial's ripening elixir is truly against the will of heaven. I estimate that only the ascended spiritual world, or the higher fairy world, can refine such treasures."
The fox stretched out his pink tongue and licked his lips before speaking solemnly.
"What you mean is that this treasure of mine may have been refined by monks from the upper world or immortals from the fairy world." At this moment, Bai Ran couldn't help but take a deep breath and said a little moved.
"Yes, it is indeed possible!" Yinyue nodded slightly.
After hearing this, Bai Ran became silent, and suddenly took out the mysterious vial from the storage bag. He took it into his hand and played with it carefully, with a gloomy expression on his face.
After a while, he slowly put the bottle away, and then suddenly asked Yin Yue:
"Yinyue, you should have heard the words of the two Luoyun Sect elders next door. Do you think I should stay or find a better place to go?"
"Well..., now that the master has asked in person, Yinyue has become presumptuous. What are the master's plans for the future? If there are no other plans, staying in the Luoyun Sect is still a good choice. Those two are both from the Yuan Dynasty.
As an infant monk, the master will not be restricted by anyone if he stays in this sect.
.And the Luoyun Sect is considered a large sect, enough to provide the master with a certain amount of strength. Of course, if the master has other arrangements, it doesn't matter. A Nascent Soul Stage monk, even a casual cultivator, cannot
Is there any sect that would dare to provoke him easily?" Yin Yue said calmly.
"There are no specific plans yet. I need to spend a few years to solidify the Nascent Soul first. In addition, I must go to the far west in the future. I must get the last three levels of the Dayan Jue. Yuan Wu
I have to go to the country eventually. I promised someone back then that I would destroy the Fu family in this country. I wonder if there is any connection between this family and the Fu family in Baiqiaoyuan?" Bai Ran said lightly.
"If this is the case, it would be better for Master to stay in Luoyun Sect for the time being. After all, the casual cultivators are still somewhat lonely, and if there are Yuanying Stage monks to guide them, it will be of great benefit to Master's cultivation." Yinyue thought about it.
I thought, someone suggested.
"Yeah! That makes sense! I'm a little tired now. You can go down first." Bai Ran didn't say whether he had adopted this suggestion. Instead, he changed the topic and gave instructions, then got up and walked towards the bedroom.
Bai Hu tilted his head and glanced at Bai Ran's retreating back, with a thoughtful look in his eyes, and walked out of the hall.
... Lying on the stone bed in the bedroom, Bai Ran stared blankly at the bluestone roof. His mood was fluctuating, making it difficult to fall asleep.
Condensing the Nascent Soul that day seemed simple, but the risks involved were so great that Bai Ran was still scared when he thought about it.
The reversal of the pumping and accumulation of all the meridians when the pill was broken, although the pain made him almost worse than death, but with his cultivation level being much higher than that of monks of the same level, he was able to endure it for a while. Among them, the Nine-Tune Lingshen Pill Pill
Of course, the magical power of the medicine takes most of the credit. Otherwise, Bai Ran would be very doubtful whether he fainted on the spot.
The process of breaking the pill is extremely dangerous. But compared with the backlash of inner demons below, it pales into insignificance.
I originally thought that I had several soul-soothing and soul-soothing treasures such as the Soul-nurturing Wood and the Brahma Pearl to protect my body. In addition, I also had a Soul-Calming Pill specially prepared for this purpose. Although I would not be able to overcome the inner demon without any effort,
After all, it should be much easier than other infant cultivators.
But I didn't expect that the inner demon was so powerful and deceitful that it was many times more powerful than the rumors.
It first made Bai Ran experience a series of the most terrifying things in his heart. Many things that were usually buried deep in his heart and even he himself was not aware of happened one after another in the illusion.
Whether it was that his hometown village was suddenly robbed by bandits, his parents and little sister were all murdered, or that he lost all his cultivation and became a mortal again, or that the secret of the vial was exposed, and he was hunted down by the entire cultivator world. All of this touched Bai Ran.
The weak scenes in his heart were displayed in front of him one by one, like a dream, like reality, like illusion. Once he fell in, he couldn't extricate himself.
Even though Bai Ran is usually strong and steady, he almost sinks into anger and fear.
Fortunately, the tranquilizing elixir and other treasures were not just an empty name for Lang. They finally kept a little clarity in his mind at the critical moment, and he was able to break through the illusion and return to reality.
Even so, Bai Ran broke out in a cold sweat.
Before he could calm down, the next wave of attacks from the inner demon came immediately.
In a trance, he fell into many wonderful and happy illusions.
There are reunions with parents and little sisters, returning to the happy life of childhood, and suddenly getting married to Nangong Wan, and they realize their dreams together. In the end, there are also scenes of the Mo sisters, Chen Qiaoqian and other girls serving the same husband. For
Bai Ran only indulged in these for a while and got rid of the obsession in his heart.
Next, he achieved great success in cultivation, dominated the Tiannan Immortal Realm in one fell swoop, and was finally able to ascend to the spiritual world, and then became an Immortal in the Immortal Realm. From then on, scenes of living as long as heaven and earth appeared one after another.
He had been intoxicated in these illusions for who knows how many years, as if he had experienced great joys and sorrows in several lives, and then he suddenly woke up by some chance, finally got rid of the confusion of inner demons, and was able to take shape as a Nascent Soul.
Bai Ran was lying on the bed silently reminiscing, and couldn't help but think of the scene when Nascent Soul left the body for the first time.
When his Nascent Soul just formed and flew out of the Tianling Cap, he clearly felt that the Nascent Soul was himself, and that he was the Nascent Soul. However, he was unable to control any of the actions of the Nascent Soul. He could only watch the Nascent Soul on his head.
Playing and having fun is like returning to the carefree childhood.
At that moment, he felt so peaceful and peaceful that all worries and worries were forgotten, as if he had entered the so-called state of returning to nature.
Afterwards, Bai Ran thought about it carefully and understood the reason for this situation. It was because his Yuanying had just formed and could not yet unite his mind and heart. After the Yuanying was completely formed and his cultivation improved, this kind of situation would occur.
The thing will naturally never happen again.
While tossing and turning, he was extremely tired due to the pregnancy, and he fell asleep in a daze. During this time, he had a sweet and sweet dream, as if he had returned to the small mountain village again, with his brother and little brother.
The two sisters ran all over the mountain with great joy, and then went home to eat and laugh in front of their parents.
What a wonderful dream!
...Three days later, when the two silver-haired old men came together, Bai Ran agreed to join the Luoyun Sect without any further hesitation.
When the two elders of Luoyun Sect heard this, they were naturally overjoyed.
They immediately proposed to hold a grand intra-sect meeting and invite senior monks from other sects to hold a grand entrance ceremony.
Upon hearing this, Bai Ran immediately shook his head like a plucked drum and denied it. Instead, he suggested that everything should be kept simple and only the other two sects in Yunmeng Mountain should be notified. Anyway, the Yuan Ying stage elders of these two sects
, we will have to deal with him sooner or later. Everything else must be done in a low-key manner. Bai Ran doesn't want to attract too much attention to himself.
Although the two silver-haired old men felt that something was wrong, fortunately they understood Bai Ran's idea of not liking the excitement, so they agreed.
Bai Ran then followed the two silver-haired old men and appeared in the main hall of Liu Qifeng's main peak, and then summoned the disciples of the Dan Jie stage one by one.
A small number of the alchemy monks among them naturally recognized Bai Ran, a disciple in the "qi refining period".
They had heard some rumors in the past few days and knew that the new Jieying cultivator three days ago was going to join their Luoyun Sect. After analyzing Bai Ran's identity in several aspects, they had a pretty good guess.
When I met Bai Ran, although I didn't know what these people were thinking, they all behaved respectfully, and no one showed any signs of strangeness.
When Bai Ran saw his former "masters", the old man in red and the two peak masters of Tianquan Peak, they all called him "Uncle Bai" all the time. Although he looked at ease on his face, he felt calm in his heart.
I thought it was a bit funny. I waved my hand and let them get up without any intention of making things difficult.
But when Bai Ran's consciousness swept away, he found that the woman named Song among them had a complicated look on her face and her voice was slightly hesitant when she called her "Uncle Master". I wonder if this woman remembered what she had said to him that day.
I have used the mind-exploring technique myself, but it has failed.
With Bai Ran's current cultivation level, he would never take this woman's thoughts to heart.
After meeting these pill-forming monks, the silver-haired old man immediately said that in the entire eastern Yunmeng Mountains, he could choose a spiritual mountain full of spiritual energy to open his own cave, and he did not have to live on several peaks in the sect.
After hearing this, Bai Ran was not polite.
In the next day, after searching for a while, he settled on a medium-sized mountain peak to the east of Luoyun Sect.
Although this mountain peak is neither tall nor dangerous, nor is it the best place for spiritual energy. Fortunately, this mountain peak is a rare alphabet peak. In addition to a main peak, there are also three smaller peaks surrounding it. It is very suitable.
Arrangement of magic circle and forbidden method. Bai Ran was very satisfied with this.
It was extremely easy for Bai Ran to open a cave. Even though this cave was the largest one Bai Ran had ever built, it only took half a day.
When the cave was opened, Bai Ran immediately used array equipment to set up a more powerful temporary array on the three mountain peaks. Suddenly, a fog enveloped the entire area of dozens of miles around.
Naturally, Bai Ran would not be too satisfied with these restrictions. He had already planned in his mind that he would reset the restrictions once he figured out a more powerful way to set up the formation.
After doing all this, Bai Ran returned to the original medicine garden of Luoyun Sect.
Prepare to move some things from the old cave.
But he didn't expect that when he returned here, there would be a slim and attractive figure waiting for him in the medicine garden under the stone mountain.
As soon as this person saw Bai Ran, he immediately lowered his sleeves and bowed deeply, at the same time he opened his lips and begged:
"Mu Peiling is short-sighted and has offended Senior Bai a lot in the past. I hope senior will not take offense. But I have something to ask for, and I hope senior can fulfill it. I don't know if Senior Bai can take Peiling under his sect. The little girl will definitely
I will serve my seniors for the rest of my life and will never deviate from them." After saying these words, this usually gorgeous and proud woman stood aside with her hands lowered, looking a little nervous, and her bright eyes showed a look of expectation.
