Chapter 140 Entering the Formation
Chapter 140 Entering the Formation
"Fellow Daoist is so sincere, willing to pledge his life as a vow of Dao heart. How can I not make the same vow as you, so that you may trust me?"
Lu Qingyun feigned emotion and said sincerely:
"I am willing to stand guard and assist you in this secret realm, just like you, and I will never strike first before you do so. If I break this oath, my cultivation in this life will not advance an inch, and I will also die a tragic death from the tribulation of inner demons!"
"Excellent! If we work together, we'll surely reap all the rewards from this secret realm. Once we obtain the Daoist lineage of Qingmu, we can share the spoils equally!"
Bai Tianxiong's plan succeeded, and seeing Lu Qingyun make a vow, his doubts were completely dispelled.
"I will take my leave now. I hope you will enter the formation and join me immediately!"
"nature."
After giving a few instructions, Bai Tianxiong hurriedly pulled Bai Yuechan into the formation.
If he could break through to the Foundation Establishment stage on his own without relying on Lu Qingyun, that would be best. If not, he would immediately seek out Lu Qingyun to protect him from the dangers posed by both the righteous and demonic paths.
The array flickered.
Bai Tianxiong disappeared before their eyes, leaving only Lu Qingyun who had not yet entered the formation.
"It's time. Although Bai Tianxiong is playing tricks, haven't I been scheming against him all along?"
Lu Qingyun snorted coldly and muttered to himself.
There are clearly many things that can be left ambiguous in Xiong Li's oath just now.
"Bai Tianxiong never said how he would guarantee his oath if he broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage in the secret realm and was free from the inner demon tribulation."
"He thought I didn't know he was plotting to reach the Foundation Establishment stage, but in fact, decades ago, I learned from Bai Yuechan that Bai Tianxiong's cultivation technique, the Crimson Lotus Melting Sutra, could enable one to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage by using Zheng Zhizhuo, the head of the Zheng family, and her as resources."
"Although Bai Tianxiong has been unable to break through for many years due to insufficient resources and spiritual energy, the Qingmu Secret Realm is rich in spiritual objects and has abundant spiritual energy, which must meet his conditions for breaking through. Therefore, he is fearless."
"Furthermore, considering Bai Yuechan's and my hints, I can almost conclude that Bai Tianxiong's scheme is to seize an opportunity to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage so he can plunder all the opportunities in this secret realm!"
Despite anticipating Bai Tianxiong's scheme, Lu Qingyun remained completely calm.
Just as Bai Tianxiong took a shortcut in his oath, so too did he; he had long regarded the Azure Wood Secret Realm as his own grave in this world.
With his cultivation unable to improve and suspected of being plotted against by a real person, Lu Qingyun never expected his cultivation to improve in this life.
"As long as I can die a meaningful death in this life, that's enough. As for Foundation Establishment, I've never dared to dream of it."
Lu Qingyun walked towards the array ahead.
However, just before the teleportation, he paused inadvertently, his eyes slightly lowered, as if deep in thought.
Having experienced decades of ups and downs, Lu Qingyun had long since seen through the ugly faces of these cultivators.
Ever since entering the Green Wood Secret Realm, that feeling of being constantly on edge has never disappeared.
The way the immortality magic went out of control back then is still vivid in my mind.
Without a doubt, it must be the spying of the Green Wood Taoist.
"I thought Daoist Qingmu would attack me directly at the first two checkpoints, but I didn't expect him to wait until now. Although I don't know what this senior who cultivated the mother technique of the 'Ancient Wood Longevity Technique' is plotting."
"But... shouldn't he make his move after this hurdle is overcome, or rather, after this hurdle is cleared?"
Lu Qingyun stopped thinking about it and disappeared into the teleportation array.
at the same time.
As promised, Daoist Qingmu arrived.
"Interesting, has it discovered me?"
The Taoist Qingmu waved his blue robe and a smile appeared on his lips, seemingly unconcerned whether Lu Qingyun had noticed.
Resting his chin on his hand, Qingmu Daoren looked thoughtfully at the empty teleportation array after everyone had disappeared.
"That's true. After all, you're cultivating the Ancient Wood Longevity Technique, so it's only natural that you'd have some connection with me. It's just a pity that no matter what you do, it's nothing more than a mantis trying to stop a chariot, a death throes."
It should be noted that the "Azure Emperor Longevity Technique" he cultivates has complete control over the "Ancient Tree Longevity Technique".
Even if it is only a spirit now.
but,
Dealing with Lu Qingyun would be a piece of cake.
Lu Qingyun opened her eyes.
The scene before them had changed once again.
What comes into view is a valley, where precious second-tier spiritual herbs grow.
The surrounding spiritual energy was incredibly dense, indicating that the spiritual vein here must be at least at the second rank, or even the middle grade of the second rank.
It truly is a blessed land.
Lu Qingyun sighed.
No matter what schemes Qingmu Daoren might have, his wealth was far beyond what he could have imagined.
Even though it has been thousands of years since its death, the secret realm it set up before its death still has such precious spiritual herbs growing and such a high concentration of spiritual energy.
Before Lu Qingyun could even express his feelings, a sound came from afar.
"Elder Niu, we didn't expect to be so lucky. We actually encountered two lone rogue cultivators. It seems to be the perfect opportunity to eliminate them."
at this time.
Another half-step Foundation Establishment cultivator from the righteous path, Daoist Qian Shu, dressed in white, sneered. He stood beside Niu Gao, looking at the two rogue cultivators opposite him, Daoist Da Chi and Tuo Ku E, his eyes filled with killing intent.
Niu Gao did not express his opinion, but the smile on his lips made Da Chi Dao Ren and Ku E Toutuo extremely solemn.
"Damn it! Why did we have to run into them?"
The Great Equator cursed inwardly.
He had known the monk Ku'e for a long time and originally thought that once he entered, he would join forces with Dan and seize the initiative to plunder the resources of the secret realm.
Who would have thought that Niu Gao and Daoist Qian Shu would arrive one after the other!
and.
They could barely manage to deal with Qian Shu alone, but they planned to kill him.
But now that Niu Gao and Qian Shu have come together, their lives are in danger!
"etc!"
Just as he was getting anxious, the monk Ku'e's eyes suddenly lit up; he heard a sound in the distance.
With a sweep of his divine sense, the ascetic saw that it was Lu Qingyun, and he was overjoyed.
He had seen this person before; like them, he was a rogue cultivator!
The Great Red Daoist reacted even more swiftly, immediately calling out to the suddenly appearing Lu Qingyun, "Fellow Daoist, we are both rogue cultivators. I hope you will lend a hand, otherwise these righteous sects will surely defeat us one by one, and even kill us!"
