Qingdan Peak is the tallest among the nine peaks of Dancao Mountain. Although the Cuixia Palace is only halfway up the mountain, the winding mountain path winds down in circles, and I don’t know how far it is. Anyway, in Xiao Lin’s opinion, I’m afraid it’s not far away.
Dozens of miles.
After flying for a full hour, Xiao Lin came to a square. The ground of the square was actually paved with a natural boulder, covering an area of a hundred feet. This made Xiao Lin secretly shocked. If this boulder were not natural,
Yes, how much magical power would it take to move it here?
At the end of the square, there was a stone staircase extending upwards, dozens of feet high, leading to the Cuixia Hall above. At this time, Xiao Lin also saw a dozen monks wearing the clothes of outer disciples.
Climbing up the stairs.
Xiao Lin could tell at a glance that several of them were monks who entered the sect with him, and Fang Daoping was also among them.
Xiao Lin also walked up the steps honestly and walked up step by step.
Soon, Xiao Lin came to the door of Cuixia Palace, and at the door of Cuixia Palace, there were two outer disciples in the Qi Refining Stage standing on the left and right. Seeing Xiao Lin coming, one of them raised his hand to Xiao Lin.
He bowed and said, "What's your surname, this junior brother? Are you here to receive the rewards from the catacomb trial?"
Xiao Lin cupped his fists in return, nodded and said, "Exactly."
Hearing this, the two people showed envy on their faces, and the man even said: "Then I would like to congratulate my junior brother in advance on the success of building the foundation. From now on, he will escape from the mortal world and enjoy the great road." After speaking, he pointed to the person next to him.
He went to the side hall and made a gesture of invitation.
"Thank you."
Xiao Lin entered the side hall, but the entire side hall was actually empty. The few outer disciples who had originally entered to receive the rewards for the crypt trial were also missing. This made Xiao Lin slightly startled, and his face showed a trace of
Understand the color of incomprehension.
At this time, Xiao Lin saw an old man who looked about fifty years old walking out of a stone room on the side of the side hall. The old man had a goatee, square eyes, and gray hair, but it was tied neatly behind his head.
Seeing the old man, Xiao Lin's face immediately became solemn.
"Disciple Xiao Lin, I would like to pay my respects to you, senior." Although Xiao Lin called Tao Ling Uncle Tao, that was because he was an alchemy boy who applied for Uncle Tao, and he was considered a half-registered disciple, so he was called Uncle Tao.
But for the rest of the foundation-building monks, since he has never worshiped a certain foundation-building monk as his teacher, he is mostly called his senior.
Although the old man in front of him looked inconspicuous and was already in his sixties, Xiao Lin didn't think so. The amazing spiritual pressure emanating from his body made him understand that the old man in front of him was a genuine cultivator in the foundation building stage.
Facing the cultivators in the foundation building stage, Xiao Lin did not dare to have any confidence. With Xiao Lin's current combat power, even if he faced several Dzogchen cultivators in the Qi Refining stage, he was not afraid at all. But facing the cultivators in the foundation building stage,
But he didn't have the slightest confidence. Once he made a move, the probability of him being killed instantly was quite high.
"It turns out to be nephew Xiao Xian. Please come with me to the stone room to talk." The old man looked at Xiao Lin, his old face full of smiles, and said softly.
Seeing the smile on the old man's face, Xiao Lin suddenly showed a flattered expression on his face, and nodded quickly, but his heart was sinking. He didn't recognize the old man in front of him, and he thought he was sending the order this time.
The outer elder who is rewarded by the cave trial.
But the smile on the old man's face made Xiao Lin feel unreliable. The so-called courtesy for nothing, cheating or stealing, the old man in front of him had no friendship with him, even if he was given a cave trial reward, there was no
You have to be so passionate.
Seeing the old man turn around and enter the stone chamber, Xiao Lin's flattered expression suddenly disappeared, and his face became gloomy.
However, he hesitated slightly and followed the old man into the stone room.
"Master Nephew Xiao, please sit down."
There was only one stone table and two stone benches in the stone room. Among them, the old man had already reached the stone bench on the right. When he saw Xiao Lin coming in, he pointed at the stone bench opposite and whispered to Xiao Lin.
"Where is Xiao Lin's seat in front of the seniors? Disciples should just stand and listen to the teachings." Xiao Lin couldn't figure out whether the old man in front of him was testing, so he said modestly.
"Haha, Junior Nephew Xiao doesn't have to be so reserved in front of me. Please sit down."
Hearing this, Xiao Lin hesitated for a moment, then said "Thank you." Then he sat down on the stone bench opposite the old man.
After sitting down, Xiao Lin fell silent and waited quietly for the old man to speak first.
Sure enough, when the old man saw Xiao Lin sitting down, he smiled slightly and said, "Nephew Xiao, don't worry, I don't mean any harm. My surname is Lan and my name is Xin."
Xiao Lin was shocked. Although Xiao Lin didn't have much contact with people when he entered Dancao Mountain, he also knew that the surname Lan was the surname of one of the top ten cultivation families in Dancao Mountain. Since the old man in front of him was surnamed Lan, he was most likely Lan.
A member of the family.
"It turns out to be Senior Lan." Xiao Lin quickly stood up and bowed again.
"Nephew Xiao, you don't have to be polite. I invited my nephew to come to this secret room this time mainly because I want to trouble Nephew Xiao about something." The old man surnamed Lan said with a warm smile on his face.
"Senior Lan, please speak." Xiao Lin said calmly, but he kept mumbling in his heart.
"Nephew Xiao Xian is here to receive the reward from the catacomb trial, right?"
Seeing Xiao Lin nodding, the old man surnamed Lan said: "Since the cave was discovered thousands of years ago, all monks who can pick the Purple Spirit Flower in the cave trial, whether they are casual cultivators or members of the cultivator family,
, once you join the five major sects, you can get a foundation-building pill as a reward."
Glancing at Xiao Lin, who was silent, the old man surnamed Lan continued: "But for the outer disciples who have no background, even if they get the Foundation Establishment Pill, it will probably be a disaster rather than a blessing."
Hearing this, Xiao Lin's heart sank completely to the bottom. He finally understood the reason why the old man named Lan in front of him was so passionate about him. His feelings came for his Foundation Building Pill.
"Nephew Xiao Xian is somewhat lucky to have passed the catacomb trial and joined our sect. He is also a smart man. I hope that nephew Xiao Xian can give this foundation-building pill to our Lan family. Of course, we
The Lan family will not let nephew Xiao Xian give up a foundation-building pill in vain, and will compensate it with a large number of spiritual stones and magic weapons."
Seeing that Xiao Lin still didn't speak, the old man named Lan took out a three-inch knife with a faint blue light from his storage bag and placed it gently on the table.
"This blue water sword is a high-level magical weapon. I have been following my husband for a long time. As long as my nephew Xiao Xian agreed to give up the Foundation Establishment Pill to our Lan family, this blue water sword will be given to my nephew Xiao Xian. Of course, in the future,
Lan will also compensate his nephew with two thousand low-grade spiritual stones." Seeing Xiao Lin's silence, the old man named Lan thought that Xiao Lin wanted to see the compensation first, so he took out a high-level magic weapon and promised to give it to him in the future.
It seemed to him that there were a lot of spiritual stones.
But he didn't know that Xiao Lin couldn't see the high-level magic weapon displayed by the old man at all. Although the foundation-building pill rewarded in the cave trial, the only meaning for him was to give it to him.
He just provides an opportunity to build a foundation.
He didn't think that foundation building could be successful with just one Foundation Building Pill, and Xiao Lin, who had the spirit wood space, could completely refine Foundation Building Pills in batches.
But in a sense, this opportunity is more important. As long as Xiao Lin gets this foundation-building pill, he can use it to successfully build the foundation and avoid many unnecessary doubts.
The old man surnamed Lan obviously didn't think so. Seeing that Xiao Lin was still expressionless, he thought that Xiao Lin wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to open his mouth, and his face couldn't help but darken.
"Nephew Xiao Xian, our Lan family's strength in the entire Dancao Mountain is also ranked among the top three of the top ten cultivation families. One of the thirteen golden elixir ancestors in Dancao Mountain is the supreme elder of our Lan family.
Not to mention that my nephew is just an outer disciple in the Qi refining stage, even if he succeeds in building the foundation, he is completely unable to compete with our Lan family."
After a pause, "What's more, given that Xiao Xian's nephew has the qualification to manifest spiritual roots and is a pseudo-spiritual root, the probability of successfully building a foundation with a foundation-building pill is very slim. Instead of doing this, it is better to get some benefits for himself, and as long as Xiao
My nephew agreed to give this foundation-building pill to our Lan family, and I can guarantee that nephew Xiao will definitely have smooth sailing in Dancao Mountain from now on, and I can also arrange some lucrative errands for nephew Xiao."
"As long as nephew Xiao agrees to give this Foundation Building Pill to our Lan family, I will definitely find a beautiful junior from the family in the future, and he will become a Taoist couple with my nephew. By then, my nephew will be considered half of my Lan family.
Son, we will be a family by then."
Hearing this, Xiao Lin couldn't help but sneer: "Elder Lan, this Foundation Building Pill was obtained by Xiao Lin through the catacomb trial of nine deaths. You want to use a high-level magic weapon and a mere two thousand low-grade spiritual stones?
Do you want Xiao Lin to give up the opportunity to build a foundation? Sorry, Xiao Lin can’t comply with this request.”
Hearing this, the face of the old man named Lan suddenly became gloomy.
"Xiao Lin, I'm trying to persuade you, but don't be ignorant of good and evil. Don't say that you can't deal with me alone. What's more, our Jindan ancestors of the Lan family are not allowed to fight each other in the sect, but there is no guarantee that they won't.
Something unexpected happened."
Upon hearing this threat, Xiao Lin did not refute, but just looked at the old man named Lan with an idiotic look, then stood up and walked out of the stone room. This attitude of disregard immediately made the old man named Lan blow his beard and glare with anger.
After walking out of the stone room, Xiao Lin saw a stone door on the side of the side hall. This stone door had been opened, and Xiao Lin walked in with a calm expression!
