Cultivation of immortality in the family

Chapter 329 Tao Zhenjun’s visit

Fortunately, Su Mu's Taoist foundation was extremely solid, but after a while, he had completed the Taoist transformation.

At this time, Su Mu could have practiced some powerful Taoist techniques in the Nascent Soul stage, but since each Taoist method required time to collect various spiritual materials for assistance, he had no intention of doing so.

For example, in the Xiantian Five Elements Art, there is a Taoist method called Five Clouds and Heavenly Clothes, which requires collecting five types of clouds and mist and refining them into heavenly clothes, robes and other items, which is extremely exquisite in integrating offense and defense.

However, it would take about ten years just to collect those clouds. Adding in the refining time, it would take fifteen years to complete it.

Although the functions of this Five Cloud Heavenly Clothes are quite exquisite, in any case, it is difficult to compare with the fourth-level spiritual treasure.

Generally speaking, those Taoist monks with little foundation in Taoism like this regard them as treasures.

Although Su Mu came from a small family with no foundation, he had a strong connection with the immortal world, even more so than most of the true disciples of Lingqiao Palace.

Now, there are already two spiritual treasures that can be used by him, and another one is in a banned state, so he doesn't need to waste time doing useless work.

However, if there were magical powers like the Five Elements Divine Light, Su Mu wouldn't mind practicing one or two at the same time.

It's just that this kind of magical power is either a skill attached to one's own practice, or it is passed down as a Taoist tradition by various sects. It is already extremely enviable for Su Mu to get one. How can it be so easy to encounter the second one? .

Therefore, Su Mu now only needs to continue to improve his Taoism and practice safely, and there is no need to do such useless work.

It just so happened that Su Muxin got a fourth-grade middle-grade strange fire, which could be used to improve the grade of Qianyuan Qinghuo.

Before Qianyuan Qinghuo completely refined the fourth-order middle-grade strange fire, Su Mu could not refine the elixir, so he had almost nothing to do except practice.

It can be said that these days, Su Mu enjoyed a rare moment of leisure.

However, after this period of fermentation, the news of Su Mu's promotion to the Nascent Soul stage has been completely spread.

Even if Su Mu wants to keep a low profile, some people who continue to pay attention to him will inevitably come to his door.

Among them was Tao Zhenjun, the supreme elder who Su Mu had never dared to confront.

Tao Zhenjun was different from other monks. Based on his previous description, Su Mu guessed that this person had a close relationship with Fuyouzi, and it was possible that the two were brothers.

Previously, Tao Zhenjun noticed the power of the Five Elements in Su Mu and thought that the other party was the Five Elements spirit body.

In order not to expose the secret of Qi and Blood Mysterious Technique, he had no choice but to display the Five Elements Sword Pill as an excuse.

However, this method is not a long-term solution.

Now, after Tao Zhenjun learned that Su Mu had advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, he came to visit him again.

"Tao Zhenjun, I originally planned to wait for my cultivation to stabilize before visiting in person. I didn't expect you to take the initiative to come. I'm really scared. What an honor!"

Although there was a smile on Su Mu's face, he was very panicked inside.

Now, his Five Elements Sword Pill has been promoted to the level of spiritual treasure. If he mentions that incident again, Su Mu really doesn't know how to deal with it.

Tao Zhenjun did not notice Su Mu's embarrassment. After entering Su Mu's cave, he sat down generously.

Then, he directly took out a jade box and said: "I heard the news from Master Nephew Xu that your boy has been successfully promoted. I just got a strange fire from the old witch some time ago. And I gave it to you as a gift."

Su Mu did not accept the jade box smoothly, but replied politely:

"Tao Zhenjun, you are already doing me a huge favor by coming here in person. How can I dare to accept your gift so shamelessly?"

"It's a gift from the elders that you can't refuse! Speaking of which, you have truly entered the ranks of high-level monks, and your horizons must be higher." Obviously, Tao Zhenjun's words meant something.

He gave up his face and personally exchanged this strange fire for it from a female monk whom he knew well.

In Tao Zhenjun's view, even if Su Mu became a Yuanying monk, Yuanying monks were still divided into three, six or nine levels, with a huge gap in strength and status between them.

If Su Mu could accept this object and turn it into the Five Elements Sword Pill, then the opponent's natal magic weapon would have a good chance of being promoted to the fourth level spiritual treasure.

With this spiritual treasure, Su Mu's strength can be greatly enhanced. He has jumped from the lowest level of the Nascent Soul monk to the top, and is barely able to protect himself.

Of course, Tao Zhenjun did not give this gift for nothing. After all, Su Mu and he were not in a master-disciple relationship, so there was no reason to do this.

He knew that Su Mu was a smart man and knew how to reciprocate kindness. Moreover, he really needs Su Mu to help him at critical moments.

Therefore, this was considered a conspiracy, but Su Mu's attitude made him a little surprised, so he said more words.

In fact, Su Mu didn't know what Tao Zhenjun was thinking.

If when going to Yiyang Island, the other party takes out such an item, Su Mu may really accept it. After all, people have to pay attention to overcoming the tribulation. As long as they can increase their strength, then the chance of overcoming the tribulation will be successful. There will be more.

Now, Su Mu not only succeeded in overcoming the tribulation, but also upgraded the Five Elements Sword Pill to the level of fourth-level spiritual treasure. For him, the strange fire in front of him was already dispensable.

Why would Su Mu want to take risks for a dispensable thing?

Furthermore, knowing that Tao Zhenjun and Fu Youzi are brothers, and there are still some disputes between them, it is really unwise to intervene rashly.

However, what made Su Mu embarrassed was that Tao Zhenjun, in the name of congratulating himself, suddenly turned into accepting it and not accepting it.

Just when Su Mu was hesitant, there was a sudden burst of people outside Lingkong Island.

"What happened?" Su Mu asked in confusion.

At this moment, nine consecutive bells were heard outside. Even through the restrictions of the cave, you can still hear clearly.

After hearing the bell, Tao Zhenjun's expression suddenly changed and he blurted out:

"This is the leader summoning monks above Nascent Soul to discuss matters. I'm afraid something big has happened in the sect."

Su Mu had just advanced to the Nascent Soul stage and was not very clear about the rules of this sect. In recent times, there are actually only two things that can be regarded as major events by Lingqiao Palace.

The first was the battle with the Heavenly Demon Palace that lasted for decades. Although the scene of the confrontation between the two clans looked extremely powerful, both sides had tried their best to restrain themselves. Except for a few occasional Nascent Soul-level battles, the casualties were limited to Nascent Soul and below.

For the high-level monks of the two clans, this matter can only be regarded as a small fight, not enough to be a major event.

Another thing was the evil disaster that occurred some time ago. Later, Supreme Elder Shentu led several Nascent Soul monks to Yue'er Island to check the situation.

Although this matter is limited to the Yuanying monks in the sect and has not been known to other low-level monks, it is really important. If it is not handled well, it may lead to endless disasters, so Lingqiao Palace cannot treat it carefully. , otherwise he wouldn’t have asked Elder Shentu to take action.

"Could it be that there are new variables in the situation of the demon dragon below Yue'er Island?"

Based on the information he had received so far, Su Mu felt that this was probably the case.

"Come on, let's go over and find out the situation!" Just like Su Mu's uneasiness, Tao Zhenjun's face was also uncertain. It was obvious that he had guessed something.

However, instead of making random guesses here, it is better to go over quickly and understand the situation.

Since the headmaster of Lingqiao Palace has rang the nine bells, it means that something big has really happened and everyone needs to discuss and resolve it together.

The two of them did not dare to delay here, but quickly walked out of the cave and left hand in hand.

When the two of them arrived at the meeting hall, more than twenty Yuanying monks who were still in the sect had gathered at the entrance of the hall.

Except for a few Nascent Soul cultivators who were in seclusion and could not be present, even Cang Qing, a scapegoat who was assigned to be punished, had to come in person.

Su Mu saw Cang Qing in the crowd at a glance, and the other party also saw Su Mu rushing over. However, when he saw that Tao Zhenjun was present next to Su Mu, Cang Qing just nodded slightly and looked away. .

Although the ancestor of the Cang family passed away unfortunately, the root cause and responsibility of this incident cannot be blamed on Su Mu.

Who would have thought that things would develop like this. To be honest, it was the selfishness of the Cang family that led to the tragedy. Su Mu had not known about this before, and it was even painful for the other party to conceal it.

Fortunately, Su Mu's invisible sword escape was extremely good and he escaped. Otherwise, if Su Mu's cultivation level is mediocre, I'm afraid he will be implicated. If he is not good, he will end up like the ancestor of the Cang family.

However, after all, a Nascent Soul cultivator died in the Cang family, and the sect dealt with it very quickly, not giving Cang Qing much time to react. As a result, he had no time to apologize to Su Mu, and he had promised to use the secret method as reward in advance, so he also Not sent to Sumu.

After a while, all the Yuanying monks who were still in the sect arrived.

Su Mu roughly counted, including himself, there were actually twenty-seven Nascent Soul cultivators here.

If we include the ten or so people in retreat and those who go out, there may be more than forty Yuanying monks in Lingqiao Palace.

"Is this the true strength of the leading sect in the East China Sea?" Su Mu couldn't help but be speechless.

At this moment, the wooden door of the meeting hall slowly opened, and the leader of the sect, Zhenjun Moli, was seen sitting high on the main seat, with a solemn expression and boundless majesty.

Below him, there were five Nascent Soul monks sitting in a row, but their expressions were slightly melancholy, especially the elder Shentu in the middle, whose face was as gloomy as if he could squeeze out water.

Seeing the figures of these five Nascent Soul cultivators, Su Mu's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He might have really guessed it.

These five monks are not the same people who rushed to Yue'er Island!

Looking at their unkind expressions, Su Mu could figure out without guessing that the situation below Yue'er Island must not be optimistic.

Not only Su Mu felt this way, most of the Nascent Soul cultivators present also guessed it.

Under the leadership of several Supreme Elders, twenty-seven Nascent Soul monks filed in. Everyone was in an orderly manner, and no one dared to make a sound.

After everyone sat down one by one according to their cultivation and status, the door of the meeting hall was slowly closed again.

Su Mu's cultivation level is at the lowest level, and he is still a guest. If he were not also a Nascent Soul monk, he would not be qualified to be invited here. Therefore, he can only be regarded as a soy sauce, so he is the last one to accompany him.

"I have invited you all to the meeting hall today. I believe that when you see Elder Shentu and others, you will have a rough idea of ​​what we are about to discuss."

After all, Zhenjun Moli is the leader of the sect. Although his cultivation level is not the highest, he needs to control all affairs in the sect, so he will preside over this meeting.

He looked around and saw that everyone was looking at their noses and noses, looking thoughtful, so he had to continue:

"A few days ago, Elder Shentu led the elite members of the sect, together with his comrades from Dahuang Island, to go deep under Yue'er Island to check the situation. It was not until just now that they returned to Lingkong Island. After hearing their findings, I was greatly surprised. Wonderful, the only way is to call everyone together.

Great Elder, it’s up to you to tell everyone about the results of your investigation this time! "

Elder Shentu nodded and said loudly:

"This matter started when a monster with Nascent Soul strength invaded Huoxi Island some time ago. Afterwards, we learned that the main purpose of the monster's appearance was to rob Cihang Temple of Luojia Mountain in the South China Sea. The inheritance token is a nine-section tin staff broken into two parts.

However, the nine-section tin staff is a sacred object of Buddhism. Even though it has been broken into two pieces, it still shows extraordinary power. It can identify the devil's tricks in time and fail to let the opponent's conspiracy succeed.

Unfortunately, the monster was just frightened away at that time and was not brought to justice. Now it is still hiding somewhere and may continue to wait for opportunities to attack.

After getting the news, I led several elite sects and notified Dahuang Island, and the two sects acted together.

When we arrived at Yue'er Island, through comparison with previous years, we found that the demon-stained land around Yue'er Island had spread for dozens of miles. "

"In the past hundred years, the demon-stained land has been spreading outwards. This is something everyone knows.

The reason for this actually reflects that the monsters in the demon-suppressing land below Yue'er Island are constantly recovering their strength.

During this period, we also tried more than ten methods to prevent the continued spread of the demon-stained land, but with little success, so we had to arrange for manpower to check the situation nearby.

Compared with the situation at the beginning, the situation has gone from bad to worse over the years, which shows that the demon's strength is recovering faster and faster.

If it is allowed to continue to recover, I am afraid that a new round of tribulation will begin. "
