I have 99 innate treasures

Chapter 275 From now on, I will fight you to the death! (Part )
The twelve cultivators who came out of Huangquan Dao Sect were all inner sect deacons in the Yuanshen stage.

The communication between them seemed to take a long time, but in fact it was only a moment.

After the conversation, the old monk who first asked Zhang Qianren asked with a blank expression, "The two leaders of Huangquan Dao Sect and Piaomiao Sect are not old acquaintances, and there are no close friends of Daoist fellow in our sect."

"I wonder what is the reason for your sudden visit here?"

When they asked the question aloud, Ji Yun, who appeared calm on the surface, was secretly shocked in his heart.

"So he is Zhang Qianren who got the Ruyi Jingu Bang... No wonder I had a special feeling in my heart after seeing him."

"Now it seems that this feeling should be some kind of connection between the holders of the innate treasure."

"I just don't know if Zhang Qianren has the same feeling?"

"If he has it too, doesn't that mean he already knows that I am also the holder of the innate treasure?"

Just when Ji Yun was worried about this, Zhang Qianren also spoke up to respond to these cultivators.

"Although I have no friendship with your clan in the past, I have heard of your reputation a long time ago."

"I am here today to visit you with the intention of joining your clan."

Hong Dengyun had already reported Zhang Qianren's purpose clearly.

Therefore, after hearing what Zhang Qianren said, these dozen cultivators remained calm.

The old monk who asked the question first bowed again and said, "My Taoist name is 'Bai Huan', and I am the leader of the inner sect deacons of the sect."

After introducing himself, he stared at Zhang Qianren and said, "Since the day the innate treasures came into the world, our sect has known that the world will be in turmoil because of these innate treasures."

"Fellow Daoist Zhang is one of the holders of the innate treasure. At present, people like Fellow Daoist Zhang, even if they are not outstanding, are still blessed with good fortune."

"And with your strength, I think there are not many people in the world who can match you."

"Fellow Daoist Zhang, why do you want to join our sect instead of going out to enjoy the world?"

Zhang Qianren stroked his beard and smiled, saying, "I think you all already know everything about me... so why do you have to ask such questions?"

After hearing these words, the dozen or so monks looked at each other.

As early as when the Magical Weapons List listed the Ruyi Jingu Bang as the first on the Magical Weapons List for March, the three words "Zhang Qianren" had already spread to all the major sects in the world along with the Ruyi Jingu Bang.

At that time, although he had not yet revealed the fact that he possessed the Ruyi Jingu Bang, he was the only person who had access to this innate treasure.

As a holy place of the devil, Huangquan Dao Sect naturally has the ability to find out everything about Zhang Qianren.

It can even be said that they know more than the people of Piaomiao Sect.

Seeing their silence, Zhang Qianren suddenly sighed and said in a sad tone: "To be honest, the two masters of Piaomiao Sect don't care about the sect's affairs like the masters of other sects. The sect has very few skills, magic, and supernatural powers. The few that are slightly powerful are either incomplete or have various influences."

"I know that I am of low aptitude, so in order to seek the great Dao, I relied on a magic technique to advance to the foundation-building stage. I didn't expect that because of my good friend's betrayal, my magic cultivation was destroyed by the elders of the sect in public, and even my lifespan and bones were secretly injured to varying degrees."

"For the next few decades, in order to protect myself, I could only act honestly."

"I never thought that because I am honest, I would be bullied even more."

"If I had not come into contact with the Ruyi Jingu Bang, I would have chosen to resign from my position, live in the human world incognito, and spend the rest of my life as a mortal."

Taoist Baihuan nodded slightly. They already knew these things.

Zhang Qianren smiled helplessly and said, "Although I am a Jindan cultivator today, my skills are no different from those of a foundation-building cultivator. It is all thanks to this treasure that I have been able to survive until now."

"But the innate treasure is an external object after all. Its power... will be more or less affected by my strength."

"If I only have the treasure but do not make progress, one day, I will be captured by some powerful person along with the treasure!"

"Instead of this, it's better to find a place that can take me in."

"I dare not say anything else, but crossing a few realms and killing a few Yuanshen stage cultivators is as easy as taking something from a bag."

After listening to what he said, Taoist Bai Huan nodded and stroked his beard, saying: "Daoyou are a rare honest person. If Daoyou has not been involved in any trouble and is only sincere in joining the sect, there is no reason for our sect to reject you."

When Zhang Qianren heard what he said, a smile appeared on his face.

But before he could speak, Taoist Bai Huan had already sighed and said with regret: "Just as I said, if you are not in any trouble, we welcome you to join our sect."

Zhang Qianren narrowed his eyes upon hearing this and said in a cold voice: "You mean, you won't let me join?"

Taoist Bai Huan nodded gently and said, "Fellow Daoist, please go back. We really can't afford to get involved in your trouble."

Zhang Qianren smiled coldly, and his face became gloomy.

"Tell me, what kind of trouble do I have?"

"If you can't tell me, don't blame me for being ruthless later. There are already countless cultivators like you who have died in my hands!"

Daoist Bai Huan smiled gently and said, "Let's talk about the first problem first. Daoist friend, do you know that you are about to become a demon at this moment?"

“Although Huangquan Dao Sect is a demon sect, the gap between the demon sect and the demon leader is like the gap between heaven and earth!”

"A demon master like the Cangshan Old Demon has killed more than hundreds of millions of lives. Although people usually call him a demon, they have never regarded him as a demon."

"Because, after all, he can distinguish between good and evil. He doesn't kill anyone he sees, and he doesn't have the intention of destroying the world."

"But after the cultivators are possessed by demons, they do not distinguish between good and evil and will kill anyone they want. Most importantly, they will have a sense of connection with those evil spirits in the dark, and will eventually be bewitched by them and become demons."

"The Huangquan Dao Sect doesn't have the ability to deal with a vicious god that even Emperor Yu couldn't defeat!"

After hearing these words, Zhang Qianren narrowed his eyes subconsciously, and his already gloomy expression took on a bit of coldness.

In his opinion, things like being possessed by a demon were just excuses made by the old man in front of him.

How could he become possessed by a demon out of nowhere?
After Baihuan Taoist finished speaking, he stared at Zhang Qianren and asked, "Do you not believe it, fellow Taoist?"

Zhang Qianren said in a cold voice: "Of course I don't believe it!"

Taoist Baihuan smiled and said, "After you came out of retreat this time, have you ever seen your current appearance?"

Zhang Qianren frowned and said nothing.

Taoist Baihuan immediately raised his sleeves and swept them. A water curtain condensed out of thin air, shaped like a mirror, quietly floating in front of Zhang Qianren.

Zhang Qianren's pupils shrank when he saw his reflection in the mirror. He was wearing a loose black robe, with gray hair as messy as a bird's nest.

The goatee on his chin was no longer smooth, but branched.

There is even untidy beard on both sides of his face.

A pair of bloodshot eyes and a strange sneer at the corner of the mouth made Zhang Qianren's heart tremble when he saw it.

“This…is this the old man?”

"When did this old man... become so creepy?"

He couldn't help but widen his eyes and stare at himself in the mirror.

Beside him, Ji Yun, who had always had little presence, secretly glanced at the mirror and found that Taoist Baihuan did not use any tricks on the mirror.

The reflection in the mirror was exactly what Zhang Qianren looked like at the moment.

Taoist Baihuan saw that Zhang Qianren had been silent for a long time, so he stroked his beard and said, "Now, let's talk about the second trouble you have."

"Fellow Daoist, have you ever had a dispute with the Dao Lord lineage?"

After hearing this question, Zhang Qianren suddenly turned his head and looked at Taoist Baihuan.

Taoist Baihuan smiled lightly and said, "You may not know that all the cultivators of the Daojun lineage are evil. You may have offended them at some point, or had a dispute with them, so they left a mark on you."

"Except for cultivators of the Daojun lineage, no one else can sense this mark, no matter how high their cultivation is."

"But...I am not among them."

"Because, thousands of years ago, I had another name, called 'The Taoist Lord of Hundred Illusions'!"

When Zhang Qianren heard this, his pupils suddenly shrank.

Not only had he heard Fu Qingfeng and Shen Congyun discuss the Taoist lineage, but he had also had direct contact with Taoist Qinghong in Bixia Temple.

Therefore, it is extremely clear how terrifying Daojun is!
Bixia Daojun almost blocked his full-strength attack with just the help of a statue!
While he was thinking about this, Taoist Baihuan stroked his beard and said, "Although I have abolished the cultivation I had when I was a Taoist, my vision from those days is still there."

"If I am not mistaken, you should have had a dispute with the Bixia Daoist Master."

Zhang Qianren nodded instinctively and said unconsciously: "A month and a half ago, I passed by Qixiao City and found a Taoist temple outside the city..."

He described in detail everything that had happened between him and Taoist Qinghong, and also mentioned that he was trapped in Bixia Temple and had just broken the seal today.

Taoist Baihuan nodded and said, "So this is the second trouble I mentioned, because Taoist Bixia has not fallen, and she can vaguely sense what is happening in the human world through the statues in the human world."

"Before Taoist Qinghong died, he left a mark on you. When the world returns, Taoist Bixia will definitely come to look for you. In other words, you still have fifty-three years. If you can become a Mahayana cultivator within fifty-three years, or even transcend the calamity directly, you may be able to avoid this calamity."

"Otherwise, the consequences will be unpredictable."

"After all, fellow Taoist is about to become a demon."

Zhang Qianren's eyes couldn't stop trembling, and his old face was as gloomy as water.

He had not expected that a mere Jindan cultivator like him would get into such trouble!

As for being promoted to Mahayana in fifty-three years, or even transcending the tribulation to become an immortal...

If he had such ability, he would not have ended up like this.

Seeing his bitter smile, Taoist Bai Huan shook his head and said, "Daoyou, relax for now. After all, your troubles are not over yet. As the saying goes, too many lice won't itch. If you have too many troubles on your body, you don't need to worry about them."

After hearing such comfort, Zhang Qianren couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

"What do you mean? Do I have other troubles?"

Taoist Baihuan nodded, then stared into his eyes with a burning gaze, and said with a smile: "Daoist Fu Qingfeng, until now, you still refuse to show up?"

When Zhang Qianren heard the three words "Fu Qingfeng", his face changed instantly.

He subconsciously extended his spiritual sense and looked around, thinking that Fu Qingfeng had been hiding and following him.

However, as soon as he turned his head, he saw a shadow in a green shirt floating out of his body in the mirror in front of him.

Although the man is a shadow, his cool and unrestrained temperament can still be seen.

He has a jade-like face and five mustaches under his cheeks. He looks about forty years old and has a gentle smile on his lips.

Judging from his appearance, he is the deputy sect leader of the Piaomiao Sect, Fu Qingfeng.

After seeing this scene, Zhang Qianren felt as if a basin of ice-cold water was poured over him from head to toe. He instantly got goose bumps all over his body, and a chill ran down his spine, going straight to the top of his head.

He stared blankly at Fu Qingfeng's figure, his lips trembling, and he was unable to speak for a long time.

Fu Qingfeng, on the other hand, had not paid any attention to Zhang Qianren since he appeared. Instead, he said with admiration in his eyes: "As expected of the Huangquan Dao Sect, the holy land of the Demon Dao, it actually hides a cultivator like you."

"I have also heard of the name of Baihuan Daojun in the past."

"I thought this Taoist had been killed that year, but I never thought he would change his appearance and become the inner sect steward of Huangquan Taoist Sect!"

Taoist Baihuan smiled and said, "When I was young, I was foolish and was seduced into the evil way. Fortunately, it is not too late to turn back."

When Fu Qingfeng heard this, a look of admiration appeared on his face.

There are countless cultivators in the world, but few of them are willing to give up their cultivation that is almost comparable to that of an earthly immortal and start practicing from scratch.

But the monk in front of him was one of them...

Or maybe, the only one!

At this time, Zhang Qianren finally came back to his senses, his face full of icy coldness, gritting his teeth and saying: "Fu Qingfeng! I want to know how long you have been in my body!"

After hearing these words, Fu Qingfeng, who was in mid-air, lowered his head and looked down at Zhang Qianren with a faint smile on his lips.

"Probably, it was the time when I arrived at Guanhai City and met with the deacon."

"Remember that pile of Gengjin ore?"

After hearing this, Zhang Qianren's cheeks twitched slightly, and he said in a trembling voice: "In other words, you have never believed what I said?"
