Seeing that the two people recognized him, Bai Ran felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. After being silent for a while, he said leisurely:
"When I left my hometown to seek enlightenment, I didn't expect that the Bai family would become a wealthy family. It can be seen that the saying that things are unpredictable is indeed true! You two, get up. My great-uncle has not returned to his hometown for so many years.
For the current Bai family, they are no different than an outsider. There is no need to be so polite!"
"What did your uncle say? This is unfilial piety from our descendants. We didn't know that our uncle was still alive, otherwise we would have sent someone to fulfill our filial piety in front of our uncle." The middle-aged Confucian scholar stood up and said respectfully.
"Perform filial piety! That's not necessary. I'm just here to take a look and then leave. I won't stay here any longer. I'm already a person seeking immortality, so it's better to have less involvement in this worldly fate." Bai Ran waved his hand.
, said calmly.
"Uncle, are you leaving now? This is too hasty. It's better to follow Tian Xiao to the castle to see the other boys surnamed Bai. It's not too late to leave!" the Confucian scholar said in surprise.
"No need. When I came here just now, I flew past the Bai Family Fort. The people in the fort were all scanned by my spiritual sense. Unfortunately, although there are many people in the Bai Family, no one has spiritual roots. No one like me.
What a chance. Otherwise, I wouldn't mind bringing one or two of my own disciples to practice." Bai Ran sighed, feeling a little regretful.
"It seems that those of us who are descendants are not blessed enough to have a chance to seek immortality with our great-uncle." A trace of disappointment flashed across the Confucian scholar's face, and he said with a wry smile.
"Having spiritual roots that are only available to those who cultivate immortality is a rare thing. It is normal for hundreds of Bai family members not to have this qualification. Moreover, according to my original intention, the descendants of the Baili family should not enter the world of immortality.
Okay. After all, the current world of immortal cultivation is not peaceful. Entire clans and sects are wiped out from time to time. It would be really bad if the entire Bai family is implicated." Bai Ran shook his head and said.
"Everything is done according to the instructions of the fourth uncle." Hearing what Bai Randu said, the Confucian scholar was stunned for a moment, but then he replied honestly.
"Which generation descendant are you from Li Feiyu? What's your name?" Bai Ran turned his eyes and suddenly stared at the bearded man and asked.
Hearing this, the big man hurriedly lowered his head and replied:
"Junior Li Feng is the eleventh generation descendant of ancestor Fei Yu. He has met Uncle Bai."
"Li Feiyu and I were brothers in the past, so I can bear it if you call me uncle. Just now I saw that you protected Tian Xiao a lot. It seems that the Li family has indeed taken good care of our Bai family over the years. I
The uncle of the Bai family naturally cannot treat the people of the Li family badly. Here
There are some elixirs that are of great help to those who practice martial arts. They can save you Li family members most of the hard work of cultivating your internal strength. Please accept them for now." Bai Ran patted the storage bag with one hand, and a white light flashed, seven
Eight vials of various colors suddenly appeared in the palm of his hand and were handed to the big man.
The big man was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly took the vials with thanks.
You must know that although it does not take decades for people in the Jianghu to cultivate their internal strength, as it does for immortal cultivators, it still takes many years and months to achieve even a small success. With these pills, the Li family will naturally become more skilled.
.
When the middle-aged Confucian scholar saw this, he was very happy for his friend, and looked at Bai Ran with a hint of expectation.
Seeing this, Bai Ran smiled slightly. He calmly took off a spirit animal bag from his waist and patted it lightly.
Immediately, thousands of three-color gold-eating insects surged out from the bag, forming a three-color cloud of three-color insects amidst the buzzing sound, shining dazzlingly, like thousands of stars appearing in the daytime.
The Confucian scholars and the big men were dumbfounded, secretly claiming to be amazed.
Bai Ran didn't say much and pointed at the insect cloud above his head.
These more than a thousand gold-eating insects suddenly gathered in the middle and instantly turned into a three-color sword floating in the air. Bai Ran stretched out his hand and the sword made a clear sound and fell into his hand.
This strange scene made the two Confucian scholars even more stunned.
Bai Ran held the sword in one hand and gently stroked the sword's blade with the other hand, with a gloomy expression on his face.
But after a while, he still sighed, opened his mouth and blurted out a ball of cyan spiritual energy, which just sprayed on the sword. Suddenly a green light flashed, and a green and simple scabbard appeared on the surface of the sword.
Bai Ran practiced his sword with the sheath lying in front of him.
"This sword is made by me refining spiritual insects. It can kill people and destroy enemies on its own. I will keep it in this ancestral hall. If one day, the Bai family is really in danger of being wiped out, I can let the clan members hide in this ancestral hall." With this sword, you can temporarily avoid disaster. But you must remember that I do not control this sword personally. Once the spiritual sword is unsheathed, except for the people in the ancestral hall, it will kill all the animals within ten miles. So ten million Use it with caution. There is a jade pendant here that contains a trace of my essence. Only by wearing this jade can the sword be unsheathed, otherwise a mortal cannot unsheath the sword. From now on, this jade pendant will be handed over to the heads of the Bai family. Let's do it." Bai Ran took out another piece of crystal clear jade and warned the Confucian scholar.
"My great-nephew, please remember your uncle's teachings!" After seeing Bai Ran's incredible methods, the Confucian scholar no longer had any doubts about Bai Ran. After hearing these words, he was very surprised and hurriedly replied.
Seeing this, Bai Ran smiled faintly and did not immediately hand over the sword and jade pendant to the other party. Instead, he said a warning.
"Another point, you have to remember. Because this sword is sealed by a sheath of spiritual energy, this gold-devouring sword can only be used three times. Every time it is used, the sheath will become thinner. After three uses, the sheath will become thinner. It will disintegrate and disappear. The spirit sword will turn into a spirit insect again and disappear. I think that with three chances to save the Bai family from the catastrophe, my great-uncle can be considered worthy of the Bai family. After all, there is no eternal wealth in the world. But in order to prevent future generations from taking advantage of it, they want to use this sword to do some evil things. This gold-devouring sword cannot leave this ancestral hall before it is unsheathed. Once it leaves this place, it will also turn into nothing and cease to exist. .Nevertheless, if you use this sword properly, it should be enough to let the Bai family continue to be prosperous for hundreds of years. After that, it may not be a bad thing for the Bai family to return to the ordinary."
After Bai Ran said these words, he handed over the two things."
The Confucian scholar said yes again and again, bowed down to receive the sword, and carefully enshrined it on the spiritual table in the middle, then returned to stand in front of Bai Ran and listen to the instructions below.
Bai Ran was quite satisfied with the respectful attitude of the Confucian scholar. After thinking about it, he took out two light yellow vials and threw them to the Confucian scholar and the big man respectively. Looking at the somewhat astonished eyes of the two men, Bai Ran said with a smile:
"The things just now were reserved for the Bai and Li families. You two are also my descendants after all. Seeing my great-uncle this time with your own eyes means you have a chance with me. I must give you some. It's good. Although the elixirs in these two bottles are of no use to me, they can still have some miraculous effects on prolonging life and strengthening the body for mortals. You two can accept them. That's enough. It can guarantee that you two will live to be a hundred years old."
"Thank you, fourth uncle!"
"Thank you, Uncle Bai!"
Hearing this, the Confucian scholar and the big man thanked each other with small bottles in their hands, with overjoyed expressions on their faces. It seemed that this was a gift. Bai Ran nodded and looked around again, and then suddenly asked with a trace of curiosity.
:
"You two were able to recognize me from the beginning. It seems that you really have preserved my portrait. If it is in this ancestral hall, show it to me. I am very curious about who painted it."
"The portrait is indeed in the attic. Please wait a moment, uncle." The Confucian scholar was startled after hearing this, but he immediately replied.
Walk to the side of the attic and press on the seemingly ordinary wall.
A "crack" sound came out.
Part of the wall was turned over, revealing five or six brocade and silk images hanging on the inner layer.
Bai Ran took a few steps forward and stood still in front of an image. On it was a smiling young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, with a hint of childishness on his face, which was Bai Ran's appearance in the past.
"This picture is said to have been handed over to our Bai family from the ancestors of the Li family. As for who painted it, we don't know." The middle-aged Confucian scholar stood behind Bai Ran and explained softly.
But Bai Ran didn't seem to hear anything. After a few glances, his eyes fell on another picture. Above was a portrait of Bai's father in official clothes. His face was much older than when he went back to the small village to peek, but his face was full of smiles.
of joy.
A sad look flashed across Bai Ran's face. Then his eyes swept over, and several other pictures fell into his eyes one by one.
The other portraits also showed old men with white hair and sideburns. It took Bai Ran a lot of effort to identify the old looks of his brothers. All kinds of feelings surged up in his heart, and he was stunned.
At this moment, the Confucian scholar and the tall man with a beard were very sensible and did not disturb Bai Ran.
But at this time, Bai Ran murmured a few words to himself. But his voice was too low, making it difficult to hear clearly.
When the two Confucian scholars were about to listen carefully, a dazzling green light erupted from Bai Ran's body. They were startled and subconsciously closed their eyes. When they opened their eyes again, Bai Ran was already gone.
No, but Bai Ran's words sounded in their ears at the same time.
"Although I already have some powers as a land god, I also have some powerful enemies. Don't tell others about my meeting with you today. As long as the news doesn't leak out, don't let outsiders see the gold-devouring spiritual sword.
, the monks in the world of immortality will not notice you mortals, so you can rest easy. From now on, I will concentrate on pursuing the path of immortality, and I will never get involved with the Bai family again. Just take care of yourself!"
After saying these words, Bai Ran's voice suddenly stopped, as if the person had wandered away.
After the big man and the middle-aged Confucian scholar looked at each other, they couldn't help but look at each other.
Bai Ran had indeed flown away from Wuli Gou, and had already escaped more than ten miles away. After uttering the last few words, he turned into a blue rainbow and left without looking back.
The current members of the Bai family may seem related to him, but the real family in his mind is always his parents, brothers and sisters.
Although the Confucian scholars and the big men always respected him extremely, Bai Ran still couldn't feel too close to him. After all, so many generations of estrangement, coupled with the changes in Qingniu Town and Wuligou, made it difficult for Bai Ran to integrate.
, a very strange feeling.
However, after returning to my hometown, the last concern in my heart finally faded away. I believe that after some time passes, this connection will eventually become insignificant.
Bai Ran thought silently, and after finding the direction, he accelerated his escape speed.
A few days later, Bai Ran passed through Lanzhou on the way, and he made a special detour to see Jiayuan City.
As a result, after entering the city, I discovered that the same thing happened in this city.
Not only have Sun Ergou and the Siping Gang disappeared long ago, but even the Five Color Sect, which once shocked the entire Lanzhou, also ceased to exist more than a hundred years ago and was replaced by a newly emerged "Tianyihui".
If he remembered correctly, the Five Color Sect seemed to have the shadow of Spirit Beast Mountain behind it, and Spirit Beast Mountain suddenly switched sides and returned to the Yuling Sect before the decisive battle with the Demon Dao.
And now that the Yue Kingdom is under the control of the Ghost Spirit Sect, it is normal for the Five Color Sect to decline.
I wonder if nothing happened to Mo Yuzhu and his daughter Ying Ning back then. Unfortunately, the events back then were so far apart that even though Bai Ran inquired a little bit, there was still no news.
Bai Ran could only sigh and left in a hurry.
As for Sun Ergou, although the Sun family said that he would be their master, he never really asked the Sun family to do anything. Instead, he gave Sun Ergou a lot of benefits. After he couldn't find out the news about the Sun family, he had no reason.
Taixiang thought about it in his mind, so he left Jiayuan City in vain and went straight to Yuanwu Kingdom II without any worries in his heart. He planned to pass through Yuanwu Kingdom and return to Luoyun Sect.
But just half a day after he left Jiayuan City, he suddenly looked startled and stopped high in the sky.
He turned his head and glanced a few times in the distance to one side, his eyes half-squinted.
At the same time, a group of people two hundred miles away also stopped for a moment to escape. Two of the women in white looked at each other hesitantly, with a dignified look on their faces.
"Two uncles! What happened? Is there anything wrong?" An old man behind the two women in white asked nervously when he saw the two women's expressions.
"Yes. We sensed each other's position just now, but Lingying suddenly stopped moving and remained motionless there. I wonder if we have been found." Among them, the woman in white with willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes had no trace of laziness in her eyebrows.
Cun, on the contrary, his whole person showed a sharp aura like a blade...
"It's impossible. Even monks at the Nascent Soul stage can't sense such a long distance. Could it be that the two master uncles used their secret skills just now and alerted the restrained spirit infants, so the other party realized something was wrong." Another one
The seemingly mighty man guessed as his expression changed.
"Impossible, our technique was personally passed down by your master. It only senses the location of the Wood Spirit Infant unilaterally. As long as the opponent's magic power has not been cultivated to the late Nascent Soul stage, he will not notice anything abnormal. After all, we and the opponent
can be separated by hundreds of miles, ordinary
Nascent Soul monks, no matter how powerful their spiritual consciousness is, they can usually only observe movement within a hundred miles radius, even if it is extremely terrifying. Could it be that the monk we are chasing to restrain the Soul Infant is really an old monster from the later period?" Liu
The woman surnamed shook her head and categorically denied it.
"But, Uncle Liu. Then why would the other party..." The four female cultivators in green shirts who were in the foundation-building stage were still worried and wanted to say something.
But suddenly, Han Yunzhi, who was silently saying goodbye, spoke with a startled expression.
"Not good. The spirit baby's position has moved. It's flying towards us."
"What, come over to us. Have you really discovered us?" The woman surnamed Liu's face turned pale, and she hurriedly made her hand gestures to sense something.
"The person who restrained the spirit infant really came with the spirit infant, and he was surprisingly fast. He must be a monk in the Nascent Soul stage." After a moment, the woman confirmed with a cold look on her face.
"Run quickly. You must not fight with this person, otherwise we will definitely die. I remember that the Lanzhou Ghost Spirit Sect branch is located nearby. We ran there. Although the two families have some differences, they are both members of the demonic path after all.
Facing this unknown Nascent Soul Stage monk, we can only rely on the formations there to protect ourselves. Besides, the opponent may not really dare to blatantly attack the Ghost Spirit Sect branch, so we have a great chance of escaping." Han Yun
Zhi Luo pondered for a moment and said slowly.
"Master Uncle Han is right, let's leave quickly! Otherwise it will be too late." When the man in green shirt heard that a Nascent Soul Stage monk was coming, he couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and became a little panicked.
"Hmph! Why panic! You don't have to worry about it. The six of us used the 'Spiritual Combination Technique' to combine the magic powers of the six people into one. This is enough to increase the escape speed by nearly half. Hurry up and cast the spell!" The woman surnamed Liu
He raised his eyebrows, glanced at the big man with a cold expression, and said.
The big man was startled and did not dare to say any more.
Then, the six people, led by Han Yunzhi and the woman surnamed Liu, immediately began to cast spells. Each of them used magic weapons and magical weapons. They connected their spiritual energy into one out of thin air, and turned into a ray of yellow light like one person. They flew away through the air. The speed.
Extremely fast!
At this time, Bai Ran was already on the other side, flying towards him with all his strength and a gloomy face.
Even Bai Ran himself doesn't know how strong his spiritual consciousness is now.
All I know is that by deliberately casting a spell, relying on the fourth level of Dayan Jue, the spiritual consciousness can cover a hundred miles. And after a hundred miles, although it is impossible to detect everything in detail, two or three hundred
You can also sense the general movement inside.
Just now, when he was on the way, he suddenly felt a strange hidden spiritual power around him, and it lingered around him. This surprised Bai Ran.
This spiritual power is so weak and weird that if his spiritual consciousness were not so powerful, it would be difficult for ordinary Yuanying stage monks to detect it.
Although Bai Ran didn't know what was going on, he knew trouble was coming.
According to his guess, either the murder of the entire Fu family in Yuanwu Kingdom was exposed, or something happened to those Ghost Spirit Sect monks who casually dealt with them in the Taiyue Mountains.
So he spread his consciousness around without thinking, and sure enough, two hundred miles away behind him, he luckily found several monks following him furtively.
Although it was too far away to find out who these people were, Bai Ran was already murderous and fled away without hesitation.
For the monks who have the ability to follow the traces and find him, he will never let them hang behind him, but will find some to eradicate them to avoid endless troubles.
After all, it seems that the opponent only has two or three pill-forming monks, so killing the opponent should be effortless!
Suddenly, a thick yellow light flew away in front, and at the other end of the distance, a dazzling green rainbow about ten feet long, made a clear sound and chased after it.
But in just a short while, Bai Ran's escaping light was already within a hundred miles. This made the woman surnamed Liu in front of her who was casting spells to sense Bai Ran's position from time to time, couldn't help but look pale, and finally showed a hint of fear.
color.
Because according to this chasing speed, the six of them would not have escaped half the distance before they would be overtaken by the Nascent Soul Stage monks behind them, and there would be no time to escape into the Ghost Spirit Gate sub-altar.
In a hurry, the woman twisted her neck and wanted to discuss some escape strategies with Han Yunzhi beside her, but Senior Sister Han said in a low voice with a happy face:
"Look, there is a group of monks from the Ghost Spirit Sect in front of us, they seem to be heading towards us."
"Ghost Spirit Sect monk?"
Han Yunzhi's small cry not only cheered up the woman surnamed Liu, but also made the old man and four other Yuling Sect monks feel happy. Although I didn't expect the other party to be strong enough to deal with the Nascent Soul monks,
, but it’s also good to help them block it a little and delay it.”
Sure enough, in an instant, others also saw a dozen more black spots faintly appearing on the opposite side.
Seeing this, the woman surnamed Liu felt a little at ease, and secretly glanced at Han Yunzhi. She was secretly shocked that Senior Sister Han discovered the ghost cultivator much earlier than she did.
There is only one Zhimu Lingying. She and Han Yunzhi are senior sisters on the surface, but in fact they have an alternative relationship. Normally, senior sisters and junior sisters are affectionate, but secretly they are extremely competitive, hoping to make themselves
There is a chance to merge with the Zhimu Spirit Baby. After all, who is willing to let go of such an opportunity to reach the sky in one step.
At this time, the yellow light driven by the six people instantly arrived in front of the group of ghost spirit sect monks. As a result, the spiritual energy dispersed, and the six people's respective brilliance dimmed, and they were revealed in front of these monks separately again.
These Ghost Spirit Sect monks had also discovered the Yuling Sect members early. Although they did not immediately do anything bad, they took a defensive posture as soon as the crowd dispersed.
"Hey! Aren't these Junior Sisters Han and Junior Sisters Liu from the Jade Yuling Sect? These two junior sisters came to Yue Kingdom, they are really rare guests!" A somewhat unexpected word came from this group of black-clad Ghost Spirit Sect monks.
, three monks in the alchemy stage came out, two men and one woman.
