"Is this an invitation for me to join the Spirit Elephant Sect?"

Unfortunately, having offended the Spirit Elephant Sect before, he dared not join easily.

Lin Xiaofei thought to himself.

If he hadn't killed the disciples of the Spirit Elephant Sect before, he might have actually joined, since he lacked cultivation techniques for those above the Nascent Soul stage.

Joining the Spirit Elephant Sect could be a broad path to cultivation for any cultivator, and it is the goal of countless cultivators.

Currently, the other party does not know that he is Lin Xiaofei, nor does he know his former Taoist name, Shencao Daoren.

If the other party discovers this, they might take action against him. He figured it was better to avoid trouble than to cause trouble for himself.

His eyes flashed, and he said directly:

Thank you for the invitation, Fellow Daoist Gao.

I am merely a rogue cultivator, accustomed to my freedom, and have no desire to be bound by any sect. I apologize.

"Um?"

Gao Yueshan looked slightly surprised, as if he had misheard. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "

Fellow Daoist Black God, do you know how many people want to join my sect? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

You are currently a fourth-grade spirit plant master, which is indeed rare. However, the only way to become a fifth-grade spirit plant master is to join a super-large cultivation sect.

Back then, he was invited to join the Spirit Elephant Sect, and he was overjoyed, which excited him for a whole month.

But the other party refused, which he simply couldn't believe.

"Thank you for your kind offer, esteemed Daoist."

I am about to enter the Nascent Soul stage, at which time I will travel around and have no intention of joining any sect.

Lin Xiaofei refused to speak.

According to his understanding, anyone who has offended the Lingxiang Sect, except for some cultivators with powerful backgrounds, has almost no chance of survival.

Therefore, he will not join the Spirit Elephant Sect.

"you…"

Gao Yueshan stared intently at Lin Xiaofei, a murderous glint flashing in his eyes, which he quickly concealed.

As a Nascent Soul cultivator and an inner disciple of the Spirit Elephant Sect, he sincerely invited the other party to join him, but was rejected twice, which made him feel embarrassed and lose face.

"I never expected that after I refused them, they would actually try to kill me."

It seems that this time, we have offended the Lingxiang Sect again.

Fortunately, we're currently within the city, so he shouldn't attack me. Even if he does, I'm not afraid of a Nascent Soul cultivator like him.

Seeing the murderous intent flash in Gao Yueshan's eyes and his silent state, Lin Xiaofei quickly began to think.

“Fellow Daoist Black God, since you don’t want to join, I won’t force you.”

However, I need your help with something.

Ren Yiyan, a senior brother of my Lingxiang Sect, discovered a 1,490-year-old, high-grade, third-rank Dark Flower in the Netherworld Mountain.

If the Dark Flower grows for another seven or eight years, it will be promoted to a fourth-grade spiritual herb.

You are a fourth-grade spirit plant master. If you use spirit plant techniques, you can shorten the growth time of the Dark Flower, thus quickly promoting it to a fourth-grade spirit herb.

At that time, Senior Brother Ren will reward you with 100,000 second-grade spiritual herbs, or 10 third-grade spiritual herbs, or a second-grade Nascent Soul stage immortal technique.

Gao Yueshan said calmly.

"This reward is truly generous!"

Lin Xiaofei was startled.

One hundred thousand second-grade spiritual herbs, ten third-grade spiritual herbs, and a Nascent Soul stage immortal technique—such a reward is something most people cannot offer. Even the Qingyun Sect within the entire Red Forest Mountain Range cannot provide such a generous reward.

Among them, a large number of second-grade spiritual herbs and ten third-grade spiritual herbs were exactly what he was currently craving, and he didn't want to miss out.

Lin Xiaofei's expression shifted slightly, and he asked, "

What realm is this Senior Brother Ren you're referring to? And where is Netherworld Mountain?

"You are really ignorant."

Senior Brother Ren is a true disciple of my Jingxiang Sect, possessing the peak Nascent Soul stage.

Within the entire Lingxiang Sect, he is extremely famous, how could you not know him?

It should be noted that among the hundreds of Nascent Soul cultivators in the entire Spirit Elephant Sect, only five Nascent Soul Peak cultivators successfully mastered the Divine Transformation stage technique, "One Sword Breaks Ten Thousand Laws," without breaking through to the Deity Transformation stage.

And Senior Brother Ren is one of them.

Furthermore, even among veteran Nascent Soul stage cultivators, his strength is among the top, at least ranking in the top five.

As for Netherworld Mountain, how far is it from Red Forest City?

With your peak Golden Core stage cultivation, even flying at full speed, it would probably take at least a month to arrive.

This time, I rushed back to the Spirit Elephant Sect and asked a fourth-grade spirit plant master to come with me to the Netherworld Mountain.

However, since a fourth-grade spirit plant master is of noble status and unwilling to go, I dare not force him. Therefore, this opportunity has fallen to you.

Are you interested?

Gao Yueshan said with a proud expression.

"I am indeed somewhat interested."

However, the benefits of this reward must be doubled; otherwise, you should seek someone else.

Lin Xiaofei thought for a moment and then said directly.

From their tone, he learned that they were all Nascent Soul stage cultivators, and the most powerful one was probably Senior Brother Ren, who was at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.

This posed no great threat to him, so he decided to go.

Okay, sure.

However, it should be stated beforehand that the Netherworld Mountain is a naturally formed forbidden area created by heaven and earth. Even a Nascent Soul stage expert who enters it may perish.

Therefore, once we arrive at Netherworld Mountain, we must only stay on the outer perimeter and not venture deeper. If you act rashly and lose your life, don't blame me for not warning you.”

Gao Yueshan smiled and said.

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaofei frowned slightly. The Netherworld Mountain was so dangerous that even a Nascent Soul cultivator might perish there.

However, after thinking about it, since the other party dared to go, there shouldn't be any major problems, and he was also very interested in the large quantity of second-grade spiritual herbs.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Xiaofei said:

"Fellow Daoist Gao, when will you be heading to Netherworld Mountain?"

"Within a month, we must reach the city closest to Youming Mountain, and then meet up with Senior Brother Ren at Duxianju."

However, I still need to find a helper, and you can come with me in the meantime.

Of course, you can also travel to Netherworld Mountain alone.

Gao Yueshan said calmly.

"I'll go by myself."

Lin Xiaofei said.

For him, a month is enough time, so before that, he needs to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.

Once he breaks through to the Nascent Soul stage, his strength will increase significantly, which is a very important thing for him.

"OK.

Since you're going alone, please be extra careful.

However, you must reach Netherworld Mountain within a month. Otherwise, if you displease Senior Brother Ren, you will have a very difficult time from now on.

As Gao Yueshan spoke, he gave a reminder, then leaped away and quickly left.

He wasn't worried at all that Lin Xiaofei wouldn't go. After all, the Lingxiang Sect's territory was vast, and finding someone wouldn't be difficult for them.

Lin Xiaofei raised an eyebrow, watched the other person leave, and then turned and headed towards Duxianju.

After entering the cave, Lin Xiaofei placed a large number of spirit stones around him, sat cross-legged, took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and then began to silently circulate his immortal techniques.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The spirit stones piled up like small mountains around him soon began to emit bursts of spiritual energy, like billowing smoke.

A dense aura of spiritual energy rushed towards him.

Soon, he felt the rich spiritual energy entering his body, making him feel light and airy, as if he were floating on air.
