"Senior is quick to talk to others, so junior is naturally willing to give up love, but I don't know what the ancestor is going to exchange for?"
Hearing what Lin Xuan said, Patriarch Huanyuan showed joy on his face: "Haha, fellow Taoist is reasonable, don't worry, how can I take advantage of you?"
Having said this, he stretched out his hand, turned his palm, and a blue token suddenly slipped out of his sleeve.
Lin Xuan's eyes narrowed, and he looked a little surprised: "Senior, what are you..."
"At the auction just now, I saw that fellow Taoist was very attached to the command talisman of the Demon Pyramid Gate, so I auctioned it off and exchanged it for the spirit wood with you. I wonder what your fellow Taoist meant?"
…
Lin Xuan was speechless. This old monster's strange behavior in the auction turned out to be for this.
To be honest, the Ten Thousand Years Spiritual Wood is certainly no small matter, but this Talisman is worth 300,000 crystal stones, so the two can barely offset it.
Seeing Lin Xuan lowering his head to think, Ancestor Hunyuan didn't rush him. There was no impatient look on his face, and he just stood aside with a smile.
If it were another person, Lin Xuan would naturally not let go easily. No matter what, he would have to blackmail him before he could stop.
But smart people naturally know how to assess the situation when doing things. There is an old monster in the Nascent Soul stage in front of him, how can Lin Xuan stupidly make trouble?
Greed can easily lead to disaster, and Lin Xuan understands the principle of accepting it when it is good. Anyway, he did not suffer a loss in this transaction. In this case, he agreed to it.
"The ancestors have good intentions, how can the younger generation disobey them?"
"Haha, fellow Taoist is really quick to talk. I don't have many friends. From now on, you will be the only one."
Lin Xuan smiled at the corner of his mouth, naturally he would not take the other party's words to heart. He stretched out his hand and patted the storage bag, and a white light flew out. When it fell, it turned out to be a jade box about one foot in size.
Lin Xuan threw it to Patriarch Hunyuan. The old monster was also a very wise man and also handed the talisman to Lin Xuan's hand.
The two of them checked it correctly, and each had a satisfied smile on their lips. They were both happy.
"Senior, if there is nothing important to do, I will say goodbye."
"Haha, fellow Taoist, please do as you please. I'll see you off not far away."
Lin Xuan cupped his fists and saluted, then turned into a green light and disappeared from the horizon.
Watching his back gradually go away, the smile on the round ancestor's face also faded. He suddenly turned around and shouted sharply: "Whoever is sneaking around, get out of here!"
This man is nicknamed the Smiling Tiger, but when he gets angry, his face turns ferocious, which makes him look really frightening.
"Haha, brother Huanyuan, why should you be angry? It's just a coincidence. Are you going to fall out with me, an old friend?"
There was a long laugh in the air, and a spiritual light flickered. A tall and thin old man appeared on the big rock not far away. This man was wearing a Taoist robe and looked quite immortal. The spiritual energy emanating from him
It can be judged from the power fluctuation that this is another old monster from the Nascent Soul stage.
"It turns out to be fellow Daoist Gray Crane." Ancestor Hunyuan's anger faded away and he held his hands in greeting, but deep in his eyes, there was a glimmer of light.
Master Hui He was also born as a casual cultivator, and he usually behaved both righteously and ungodly. However, in a sea of clouds nearby, he enjoyed a great reputation because he was also an old monster in the Nascent Soul stage. This person was the same as the Smiling Tiger.
Ancestor Hunyuan does have quite a friendship.
"I passed by this place on business. I didn't mean to spy on fellow Taoist's transactions with others. He's just a young man in the Dan Condensation stage. Why should fellow Taoist go to such trouble? Since he has a ten thousand year spirit tree, can't he just grab it?" Master Hui He said.
He returned the gift with his hand, but his tone revealed a lot of curiosity. He had known Ancestor Hunyuan for a hundred years. Even though this man had a nice smile, his heart was not as poisonous as that of the giant demon lord.
In the world of cultivating immortals, there is no respect for etiquette, justice and shame. Killing people and robbing treasures is just a common thing. Although he did not see the scene at the auction, Patriarch Hunyuan, with the dignity of a Yuan Ying stage monk, treated Yi Ning Dan stage so kindly.
Monk, this is obviously unreasonable.
Does that kid have some extraordinary background?
But Li Yaotian's name is very unfamiliar. In the sea of clouds on Qixing Island, no major force has ever heard of such a young master?
Seeing that Master Gray Crane was full of doubts, Patriarch Huanyuan showed a smile: "Haha, fellow Taoist, there is no need to make random guesses. I don't know the origin of that kid at all."
"Old monster, forget it if you don't want to say it. Why use such lies to deceive your old friend? If you don't know the origin of that kid, would you be so polite to a mere monk of the Yining Dan stage?" Master Gray Crane flicked his sleeves.
, a displeased expression appeared on his face.
"Fellow Taoist is still so impatient, what's the point of me lying to you?" Ancestor Hunyuan was still naive: "I really don't know the origin of this person, but you should know that in addition to the wood-attribute skills, I am also proficient in hexagrams.
"
Hexagram technique?
Master Gray Crane's expression suddenly became serious.
The so-called hexagram, that is, telling people's fortunes. People who do this as a profession exist in the secular world, but most of them just defraud money.
The character of Patriarch Hunyuan is not very good, but as an old monster in the Nascent Soul stage, he cannot be generalized with those liars. The hexagram technique he mentioned is one of the hundreds of arts of immortality. Simply put, it is to predict the future and see through the secrets of heaven.
...It sounds a bit mysterious, but cultivating the Tao is inherently heaven-defying. For people with their level of cultivation, their magical powers are as good as those of land gods. It is not surprising to have such abilities.
However, although the hexagram technique sounds popular, not many people are willing to practice it. Firstly, it is too profound and requires a lot of time to study. Secondly, things like heavenly secrets are inherently illusory. Even if they are masters who are proficient in this art,
Most of the prediction results are wrong. The most important thing in cultivating immortals is realm and magical power. Naturally, not many people will value this kind of miscellaneous knowledge. Simply put, it is a pity to discard it and it is useless to pick it up. It is basically useless.
Master Gray Crane's expression became solemn: "Did you tell the fortune of that boy just now?"
"That's right, I was just curious for a moment, but the monks in the Dan Condensation stage have such a thing as a ten-thousand-year spiritual tree, so I made a divination. What do you think I saw?"
"If you have anything to say, just say it clearly." Master Hui He was a little impatient.
"I saw the spirit of the spiritual dragon in him."
"What, the energy of the spiritual dragon?" Master Gray Crane trembled, with an expression of shock and envy on his face.
"Now do you understand why I am so fond of this son?" Ancestor Hunyuan said calmly.
"Yes, according to ancient legend, the energy of the spiritual dragon is extremely valuable. People with this heavenly sign are very likely to break through the Nascent Soul stage, and even survive the thirty-nine small heavenly tribulations and ascend to the spiritual world."
"You have also thought about it. The sea of clouds on Qixing Island is vast and boundless. It is said that on an unknown desert island, there are masters in the separation and union stage living in seclusion. However, they are not sure of surviving the catastrophe, so they are still stranded in our world.
, This boy's blessings are so profound that they surpass those of his predecessors. Do you think I would do something stupid that would be his enemy?" Ancestor Hunyuan said with a smile.
"That's true, but this hexagram technique is inherently weird and unpredictable, so how can you, fellow Taoist, be sure that you can calculate it accurately?" After a long silence, Master Hui He suddenly spoke in a strange voice.
"Haha, I didn't say that my calculations must be accurate, but so what if I'm wrong. I paid for the crystals and got the treasures, but I didn't suffer any losses in the transaction. For this kind of thing, I would rather believe it or not.
none."
"Hmm." Master Gray Crane touched his beard and thought it was true. Even though the old monsters in the Nascent Soul stage are usually very arrogant and arrogant, in fact they are also bullying and fearing evil. As the saying goes, it is better to do less than to do more.
, who has lived to be hundreds of years old, is not an extremely cunning old fox.
What's more, there is another thing that both old monsters know very well. During the transaction just now, Lin Xuan did not show any fear when he faced a Nascent Soul monk. His calmness and magnanimity alone were very impressive.
It's thought-provoking.
If it were a cultivator in the elixir-condensing stage who didn't tremble with fear, that would be great.
He didn't know that Patriarch Hunyuan had fortune-telling, so where this confidence came from is worth examining.
All in all, even though that kid is only a monk in the Dan Condensation stage, he must not be provoked.
…
When the two old monsters were talking here, Lin Xuan had already flown a hundred miles away. He was also surprised by what happened today, as if he was in a dream. Why was the smiling tiger so kind to him?
After thinking for a long time and still not having any clue, Lin Xuan stopped wasting any unnecessary time.
Now his flight slowed down and he stopped on a desolate hill somewhere.
No matter whether the other party has evil intentions or not, this place is out of the range of his spiritual consciousness, so Lin Xuan no longer has anything to worry about.
With a flip of his left hand, the blue token was taken out. Lin Xuan checked it carefully to make sure that it had not been tampered with before sinking his consciousness into it.
The result was bounced back...
Lin Xuan was startled, then seemed to remember something, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He flicked his fingers slightly and fired out a few sword energy, carving a simple magic circle on the ground. Lin Xuan took out the crystal material from the storage bag and laid it out.
A magic formula was applied, and the formation immediately began to operate. A ball of white light enveloped him inside, and then Lin Xuan calmly scratched his little finger, and a drop of blood was absorbed into the token, completing the recognition of the master.
What Lin Xuan didn't know was that at the same time, there was a mountain thousands of miles away. Although the scenery there was extremely beautiful, the whole mountain was faintly filled with evil energy.
Wucang Mountain, this is the main altar of Demon Pylorus.
In a certain place with the most spiritual energy, there is an unusually wide cave. In the practice room of the cave, a white-robed Confucian scholar sits cross-legged.
This man looked to be in his early thirties, polite and handsome, but the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes betrayed his true age.
This person is none other than the Lord of the Demon You Sect, an old monster in the middle stage of Yuan Ying. Judging from his condition, he seems to be breathing and meditating.
In front of him, there was a high platform with twelve small beasts made of fine iron. The moment Lin Xuan asked the token to identify its owner, the eyes of one of the small beasts suddenly lit up...
