Volume 21 Chapter 3 [The Price of Freedom]

Volume 21, Chapter 3 [The Price of Freedom]

After Kun Xuzi saw Wang Rui coming back with his Taoist companion, he glanced at He Na briefly and was a little surprised to see that she was just a Nascent Soul monk. As for He Na's beauty, he didn't take it seriously.

In the world of cultivation, it is not uncommon to see stunning women who are beautiful and fragrant, and who can captivate a country. There are many female cultivators who serve people with sex, and there are even many who willingly degenerate into furnaces. However, Kun Xuzi is still puzzled, because Wang Rui obviously

His feelings for Ha Na are real, and he doesn't seem to be a womanizer. Maybe there really is true love in this world.

"The relationship between the virtuous couple is so good that even the old man is a little envious." Kun Xuzi joked.

Wang Rui picked up the tea cup and toasted several people, and He Na also raised her cup to toast the tea.

Both parties seemed much more easy-going, had a brief chat, and explained some situations.

Mainly due to Wang Rui's understanding of Kun Xuzi and the others, this swamp called Molongtan is actually a sealing barrier, but this barrier is mainly used to trap monsters, especially big monsters such as Kun Xuzi.

I don’t know if it was the powerful person from the Puppet Sect who set up the barrier, or if he invited other powerful people to come.

"To be honest, fellow Taoist, in fact, meeting you this time, as well as several people from the Huang tribe who were transferred here through the power of space, and your Taoist companion, gave us new hope, so we wanted to invite you to discuss it.

One thing." Kun Xuzi stroked his beard and said.

Luluo, Kui Niu and Tian Chong looked a little nervous. Although He Na couldn't quite understand, she also understood that she might have taken a fancy to her husband's abilities or treasures.

"A few of you want to ask me if there is a way to leave this place, right?" Wang Rui asked.

Kun Xuzi's eyes suddenly brightened, and the other three people's breathing became much heavier.

"Yes, fellow Taoist, you seem to have a special ability. You can open up the space channel between the outside world and this place, so that you can travel freely. This... is exactly what we need." Kun Xuzi said straightforwardly.

Wang Rui had previously used the power of dragon inheritance, the power of star spirits and the power of sacred trees in the underground ice barrier of Bingxuan Palace to open up the passage from the barrier to the outside world. Unexpectedly, he was connected to Molongtan by accident.

inside the barrier.

"Can't you, the entire demon clan, break this barrier?" Wang Rui asked curiously.

Kun Xuzi smiled bitterly and said: "We have tried many methods, but we can't do it. I also checked some hidden rumors. It is said that this barrier was probably not set up by human monks, but... by immortals!"

"Immortal?" Wang Rui and He Na both widened their eyes. This was the first time they heard that immortals left traces in the mortal world.

Kun Xuzi nodded and replied: "It is rumored that when the immortal world was not destroyed, immortals would occasionally come to the mortal world to travel. Molongtan was originally the place where a certain demonic sect's main altar was located. These demonic cultivators are good at cultivating and controlling demonic beasts. They

It has brought harm to the world for thousands of years and poisoned countless creatures. This made the traveling immortal furious. In a rage, he destroyed the demon sect and set up an ancient seal barrier here. All monsters in the barrier

No one can escape from this place, unless a demonic beast transforms into an immortal. However, there are monks from other races who can enter here from the outside, but the demonic monks cannot step in."

Although Luluo and others had heard some of what Kun Xuzi said, they were not as detailed as today, so they all listened carefully. The same was true for Wang Rui and He Na. They listened to what Kun Xuzi said.

When Kun Xuzi saw this, he continued: "In this way, tens of thousands of years have passed, and the monsters in this barrier have been unable to escape. But for some reason, the power of the barrier began to weaken. Generations of monsters

After breaking through and transforming, they kept trying to find a way out of trouble. Later, it was not until our seniors learned from the human monks that the immortal world had been destroyed, and those immortals were probably killed in battle, that they knew the truth.

reason."

"Logically speaking, as the power of the barrier is constantly weakened, you have more hope. Why are you turning to me for help now?" Wang Rui asked while holding his chin.

Kui Niu couldn't help but interrupt and said: "Senior, I don't know. Although the sealing power of this ancient barrier is weakening, it has another kind of suppression on our monster clan, which is the upper limit of cultivation."

"Take the ancestor as an example. Ten thousand years ago, the ancestor had already broken through to the late stage of the transformation stage, which is equivalent to the peak of the Fusion Realm of human monks. However, after ten thousand years, he could never break through. The immortal who set up this barrier may have

It was precisely because of considering whether the sealing barrier would be weakened and broken through if he was not around in the future that he set up the power of laws in the barrier. This is a power that only immortals can master. Under the law, the monsters in this barrier will

The lifelong cultivation of the Beast Clan can only stay in the late stage of transformation. If the upper limit is forcibly exceeded, it will trigger a backlash, leading to a death disaster, and thus the body will die and the path will disappear." Tian Chong said angrily.

"Death calamity?" Wang Rui looked at Kun Xuzi in confusion.

Kun Xuzi signaled Lu Luo to reply, and Lu Luo cleared her throat and said: "Senior, if a mortal monk wants to transform a mortal into an immortal, the necessary medicine must go through the test of the heavenly tribulation. There is naturally something in this enchantment, but unlike the heavenly tribulation, there is a chance

Let the monks pass the test, and there will be no death disaster. Once the death disaster is triggered, the body will die and the Tao will disappear. For tens of thousands of years, there have been no accidents."

"I see, you want me to open the channel between here and the outside world just like when I came here, and then leave from here?" Wang Rui asked.

"Exactly!" Kun Xuzi admitted, and the other three people also looked at him with longing eyes.

Wang Rui was silent in thought and slowly closed his eyes.

When Kun Xuzi saw this, he knew that Wang Rui would not agree easily, so he stood up and took the initiative to say goodbye: "Fellow Taoist, I am a little tired today, I will say goodbye later."

Seeing Kun Xuzi taking the initiative to say goodbye, Luluo and the other two didn't say much, so they just said goodbye and left.

When only Wang Rui and He Na were left here, he opened his eyes.

"Brother, don't you want to help them?" He Na picked up a grape and put it into Wang Rui's mouth.

Wang Rui tasted it and said, "Nana, do you think I should help them?"

"Are you afraid that their ferocious nature has not changed and they harbor resentments, and once they get out, they will seek revenge and cause trouble to the world again?" He Na lowered her head and thought for a moment before asking.

Wang Rui nodded and said: "If what Kun Xuzi said is true, then the monsters in the barrier may be close to the existence of monsters. Once they are released, the consequences will be disastrous. This kind of disaster once broke out in Dongxuan Continent, and someone deliberately released it

Monsters have caused countless deaths and injuries to mortals, and many monks have also perished, so I'm afraid I can't agree to them. After all, I can't tell whether they have changed their minds and become good, or whether they are hiding their demonic nature."

"What the elder brother said makes sense, but I have different ideas from the elder brother." Ha Na rarely listened to Wang Rui's opinion.

"Oh, tell me?" Wang Rui didn't care at all. He looked at He Na and felt that the woman in front of him had changed drastically from the girl when he first met her.

If the original Ha Na was too introverted and submissive in character, she was like a humble weed in a shadow corner.

But now He Na has a confident side. Perhaps she has experienced a lot with Wang Rui and grown up over the years. This is what Wang Rui wants to see.

A Taoist couple who completely worships themselves may not be able to stay together for a lifetime. Only a Taoist couple who has their own independent ideas can support each other.

He Na met Wang Rui's encouraging gaze, her face turned red, she thought for a moment and said, "Brother, I think we should give them a chance. If we continue to let them stay here, they will only massacre more monks who have entered the swamp and have died over the years.

There are quite a few, and I almost died here. If someone maliciously drives innocent people into the swamp, then many people will die in vain. Instead, they use the monsters here and these big monsters. If they can be taken out,

And making a three-part agreement with them, and even letting them be responsible for guarding this swamp, can save more people. Of course, how to make them willing to make a three-part agreement with Big Brother, I still have to find a way from Big Brother."

After finishing speaking, Wang Rui looked at He Na in surprise. He originally thought that He Na was just out of pity, but there was no solution. But now she clearly pointed out the solution, but she still lacked some means to ensure it.

That's all.

"Yes, Nana, you already have your own ideas. I am very pleased. I will improve your ideas. As for how to restrain them, this is my strength." Wang Rui is somewhat confident in this point.

, when he just crossed over and was in the Xutian Sect, he met Lei Wantong and forced him to hand over the blood of his soul to ensure his own safety. Can't he repeat the same trick today?

It doesn’t matter what method is used, as long as it is useful, it is a good method.

He Na hugged Wang Rui tightly with some pride, her eyes were full of affection, Wang Rui was also a little moved, and the two of them had a rare moment of tenderness.

A few days later, Kun Xuzi visited again, and Lu Luo, Kui Niu and Tian Chong were still with him.

Wang Rui asked He Na to make tea for everyone, and then withdrew. When Kun Xuzi and others saw this, they immediately knew that Wang Rui would probably make a decision today.

The atmosphere was a little tense for a while. Kun Xuzi and others had waited for tens of thousands of years for someone like Wang Rui who had the ability to break the barrier. If they were rejected and their hopes were shattered, the mood would probably lead to a fight between the two parties.

Luluo frowned, feeling a little heavy in her heart. Kui Niu kept breathing in and out of his nostrils two strong breaths that were like fighting. Tian Chong closed his limbs from time to time, feeling uneasy.

Kun Xuzi seemed to be as still as a mountain, and his eyes were calm. However, Wang Rui noticed that the surface of the tea in his tea cup was rippled from time to time. The source of the ripples naturally came from this calm old man, and a confident arc suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth.

When several people saw Wang Rui's confident smile, their moods suddenly changed again. The originally tense atmosphere relaxed slightly, perhaps because it was interrupted by his calmness and confidence.

However, Wang Rui remained silent, which gradually increased the pressure on everyone. Finally, it was Kun Xuzi who took the lead to break the deadlock.

"I wonder if fellow Taoist Yuantian has made a decision?" Kun Xuzi asked in a deep voice, holding the cup tightly with one hand.

Wang Rui drank all the tea in the cup and put it on the table. His spiritual pressure spread and his eyes swept over everyone, making everyone feel a huge pressure.

"Okay!" These two simple words almost drained the mana of several people, but what followed was a burst of ecstasy.

However, Wang Rui's subsequent "but" made them feel suspended again.

"Back then, the immortal set up this ancient sealing barrier to relieve the suffering of the mortal world. In fact, it is not wrong to say it. I wonder what you think?" Wang Rui's eyes were sharp, his light shone, and the spiritual pressure of the monk at the peak of the Fusion Realm was fully unfolded.

It made several people feel their scalps numb, and even Kun Xuzi felt powerless.

They have the same cultivation level, but their actual combat power may not be that close. Kun Xuzi suddenly discovered that, just like taking action, he did not have the confidence to defeat Wang Rui.

The other three looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.

In the end, Kun Xuzi let out a long sigh, raised his hands and said, "Fellow Taoist, you are right. Back then, my ancestors were influenced by the Demonic Cult and committed murders. The immortals punished me. It was not wrong. However, over the past tens of thousands of years, we have already

I have changed my mind and will no longer do the things of the demonic sect. Moreover, I deeply hate the actions of the demonic sect. If it weren’t for them, how could we have been trapped here without a way to heaven. Fellow Taoist, please save us from the sea of ​​suffering.”

After saying that, Kun Xuzi took a step back and actually bowed down. Facing a monk of the same level, he chose to bow his head.

Seeing this, Lu Luo and the others did not dare to persist anymore and bowed down one after another. Although Kui Niu and Tian Chong were very reluctant, they had no choice but to do so.

However, Wang Rui remained unmoved in the face of this situation and continued: "Well said, the actions of the demon sect have made people and gods angry. This is what I am worried about. If the passage is opened so that you can escape from the cage, what if you

If you change your mind and do evil things again, wouldn't I be the chief culprit?"

"No, no, no, fellow Taoist, why do you say this? We have already wiped out all the demonic people from the center of our clan. Now we just want to go out and find a place to breed and strengthen our clan. We never want to be related to the demonic path again. If you violate this oath,

, I will never be able to break through the cultivation level in my life, I will not enter reincarnation after death, and I will disappear into thin air." Kun Xuzi raised his finger and swore to the sky.

Lu Luo and the other three also swore poisonous oaths. Monk oaths are different from ordinary people. Once they are violated, they will become inner demons and will definitely have backlash. Therefore, monks will not swear oaths easily, especially poisonous oaths.

However, Wang Rui is still not satisfied. How can he be convinced by a mere oath? He knows that both humans and monsters have a bad side in their nature. Although they also have a good side, they tend to fall into depravity, so they need to be more powerful.

means.

Seeing that Wang Rui was still silent, Kun Xuzi looked solemn, knowing that he could not win this man's trust.

"Fellow Taoist, if I can help you and your tribe get out of trouble, I am willing to dedicate this Orchid Valley to you." Kun Xuzi's eyes flashed with heartache, but he was very firm and seemed to have made up his mind.

"Ancestor..." The expressions of Lu Luo and the other three people all changed drastically. It took their ancestors thousands of years of hard work to build Orchid Valley into what it is today, but now they have dedicated it to it. Even if it is not their hard work, it still makes them feel...

Unbearable.

"Needless to say, if we can't escape from this cage, so what if we have Orchid Valley? Is it just for enjoyment that we have cultivated to this point?" Kun Xuzi's words immediately made Luluo and the others lower their heads in shame.

.

Wang Rui also frowned. He didn't expect that the other party was willing to pay such a large amount of blood, but it seemed to have disrupted his plan. Of course, the other party also played tricks. It was just a few of them, but now they unknowingly added their clansmen.

, that’s just a few ethnic groups.

However, Wang Rui still wouldn't give up on the plan he had made because of this, so he stood up and helped Kun Xuzi up. Luluo and the other three also stood up, and asking them to salute was a bit overwhelming.

"Since I want to open a passage for you, I must take the responsibility of letting you go. This is also my consistent principle. I won't say any more nonsense. If I want to leave here, I have two conditions. First, leave here.

Finally, you, including the descendants of your clan, must take on the responsibility of guarding Molongtan in the future to prevent anyone from deliberately persecuting innocent people. Once anyone is found to have behaved like a demon, he will be killed without mercy. Is it possible?" Wang Rui said coldly.

Asked, at this moment, he seemed very cold and ruthless.

Kun Xuzi thought for a while, briefly discussed with the three of them, and then said on behalf of everyone: "We accepted it. As long as our tribesmen leave here, they will send high-powered guards from the tribe to serve as guards on a regular basis, which can be regarded as a regular guard."

This kind of experience ensures that Molongtan will not become a place of massacre. However, fellow Taoist, do you know that Molongtan is within the sphere of influence of the Puppet Sect. Even if there is an agreement between you and me, without their consent, it may not count.

"

"It doesn't matter, I will make them willing to pay this place to me." After hearing this, Wang Rui smiled confidently. This scene fell into the eyes of several people, and they once again lamented that this human monk could not afford to offend. A Molongtan is a puppet sect.

It is an important trial place, especially for monks after Nascent Soul. It has many benefits. But now it has to be ceded. Isn't it like robbery?

Then, Wang Rui raised a second finger and said, "You must accept the second condition."

"What conditions, but it doesn't matter!" Since Kun Xuzi has already spent a lot of money today, he won't care about any harsh conditions.

"The four of you, each hand over a drop of your own soul blood to me. A hundred years later, I will return it to you personally or send someone to return it to you." Wang Rui said briefly, but it was no less than a thunder on the ground.

"This is too much!"

"Aren't you too aggressive, Your Excellency?"

"How can you agree to such conditions?"

Kun Xuzi remained silent, lowered his head, and seemed a little angry.

Tianchong ignored Wang Rui's spiritual pressure that was permeating his body for a moment, and took action first, bullying him forward and slapping him away with his palm.

Wang Rui seemed to have expected it. He raised an arm, and a burst of earth spiritual power burst out. The arm immediately transformed into the form of a dragon's claw, and struck a fierce blow with the opponent.

Boom!

Violent shaking came out, and the entire Orchid Valley shook. A large number of birds and animals were frightened. He Na, who was staying near the entrance of the cave, looked a little confused at this time. However, thinking of Wang Rui's instructions, she suppressed her worries.

and irritability, continue to meditate.

Wang Rui forced him back under the palm of Tian Chong, but he still refused to retreat. His body made strange changes, as if deforming. Suddenly, his whole body was covered with hard armor, and then as many as ten

Six limbs representing arms appeared, each holding a weapon.

Wang Rui didn't take it seriously and continued to fight with him with one arm, using about 30% of the true dragon's power.

These weapons hit Wang Rui's protective aura and were unable to penetrate deeply. The earth spirit armor was extremely powerful.

Long white breath came out of Kui Niu's nostrils. Seeing that the heavenly insect had nothing to do with Wang Rui, he roared and charged directly towards it.

Seeing this, Lu Luo no longer hesitated, but she did not step forward, but stood behind the two of them. Green spiritual energy continued to emerge, and then a large number of vines emerged from the ground, and then quickly grew thicker.

Some scary looking plants.

These plants spit out nuts or thread-like attacks at Wang Rui. At this time, Wang Rui's other arm also transformed into a dragon claw, and at the same time, his chest and abdomen were blocked by thick earth spirit armor.

Facing the attacks of the three men, Wang Rui still suppressed them steadily, and at the same time, he still had the energy to look at Kun Xuzi, who was silent and lowered his head as if thinking.

The Celestial Insect and Kui Niu tightly entangled Wang Rui's arms, and the terrifying plants controlled by Luluo quickly bit Wang Rui's head.

roar!

A dragon roar came out, and a huge real dragon phantom appeared behind Wang Rui, crashing directly into the three of them. Kui Niu and Tian Chong were the first to bear the brunt, and were knocked away directly. They fell to the ground one after another, unable to get up for a while.

Then Luluo tried her best to block it, but no matter what, the shadow of the real dragon in front of her was so unstoppable that Luluo was so anxious that her face was sweating and she felt the threat of death.

"Stop!" As Kun Xuzi shouted, his figure instantly disappeared on the spot. The next moment, he appeared in front of Luluo. He stretched out one hand and pinched the phantom. Suddenly, his huge hand was stuck.

The neck of the real dragon's phantom makes it impossible for the phantom to advance even an inch.

Wang Rui secretly used his strength and deliberately tested it. Seeing this, Kun Xuzi increased his strength in his hands. At the same time, he opened his mouth and sprayed out a black bolt, hitting the shadow, causing the shadow to be pierced, and then shot towards Wang Rui.

.

"Well done." Wang Rui moved his elbow back and then punched out. Hundreds of flying dragons were shot out immediately. Although it was not a complete Hundred Split Dragon Fist, otherwise the power would be too great and the cave would collapse.

Even so, the entire cave was trembling. If a few people had not restrained the scale of the fight, it would have been in ruins long ago.

This punch directly scattered the black horse, but the black impact after the dispersion still affected Wang Rui. Kun Xuzi was also impacted by the incomplete Hundred Split Dragon Fist, and both of them were shaken.

, and felt a bit of the other party’s true strength.

Afterwards, both of them gave up with restraint. At this moment, Luo Luo and the other three looked at Wang Rui with lingering fear and retreated behind Kun Xuzi.

"The second condition cannot be changed. If you want to be free, you have to pay the price. I will not hide it from you. My real name is Wang Rui. I am from Dongxuanzhou. I am now a guest of the Sword Sect and will return to Dongxuanzhou. You can investigate

Let’s talk about my background. If you don’t agree, then let’s have a serious contest to see if you have the ability to keep me. If you agree, then we will be friends in the future and can cooperate. What’s going to happen in the future?

On your own hands."

After saying that, Wang Rui turned around and left, and Kun Xuzi and the four others did not dare to stop him.

"Wang Rui? Ancestor, could he be the former leader of the Dongxuanzhou Tiandao Alliance?"

"Is this Wang Rui who has caused a lot of commotion recently and is famous in the four continents?"

"It turns out to be this person, no wonder he is so powerful."

Kun Xuzi looked at Wang Rui's retreating back and muttered to himself: "There is no such thing as a good person under the great reputation. I am convinced."
