Chapter 87 Everything is ready except the east wind
Tang Xiaoyun was so angry that he went out to look for his son Fusheng. When Dan Tai Lie regained his memory, he naturally would not use the name Mo Yu anymore.
He walked back to the stone table and sat down, looking at Baichuan and asked, "I believe you also know why I asked Shanying to find you. Tell me, how can I recover my martial arts as soon as possible?"
Before coming, Baichuan had heard Shanying say that Tan Tai Lie had lost all his martial arts skills and was like a useless person.
Back then, he had damaged his foundation by self-destructing his true essence, and the road to recovery was extremely difficult. It wasn't something he could just rebuild easily, not to mention...
Baichuan looked solemn. He sat opposite Tan Tai Lie, his fingertips unconsciously leaving shallow marks on the stone table.
He raised his eyes to look at Tan Tai Lie, and saw that although this once powerful martial artist had lost all his martial arts skills, his eyes were still as cold as an icy pond.
"Master, please allow me to report this. The Nine Yin Absolute Meridians are the most yin and coldest body in the world. Once damaged, it cannot be healed by ordinary means."
After hearing Baichuan's words, Tan Tai Lie, Shan Ying and others all looked solemn. Could it be that even Baichuan had no way out?
If we were to say who has stayed in the Demonic Sect the longest, it would be Baichuan and Heijiang. These two have been following the Old Demon Lord since a long time ago, so naturally they know a lot more.
"If even the master can't do anything about it, then the leader will never be able to recover, right?" Ye Lan said with a frown.
"Now we are facing a powerful enemy. We can hardly deal with the young leader alone. If a Blood Immortal comes..." Shanying hesitated to speak because he had already guessed the outcome.
Hearing what the two said, Bai Chuan smiled and said, "You don't need to worry too much. Although it can't be cured by ordinary means, there are other ways."
"Oh? Do you have a solution?" asked Tan Tai Lie.
"I've read in the old demon lord's notes that to restore the Nine Yin Absolute Meridians, one must use the essence and blood of the Nine Yang Absolute Meridians, supplemented by three rare treasures of heaven and earth. Then, on the night of a nine-star alignment, one must perform the art of defying the heavens and changing fate in the Nine Nether Cold Pond. This method can not only help the leader recover his power, but also help him overcome the heavenly punishment."
Tan Tai Lie's eyes flickered slightly, and his fingers tapped the table lightly: "Is it the Nine Yang Absolute Meridian again?"
The three rare treasures of heaven and earth might be easy to deal with, but the Nine Yang Absolute Vein was like a stone that had sunk into the sea, and there had been no news of it since that day.
"What are the three rare treasures?" asked the Mountain Eagle.
Hearing this, Bai Chuan recalled for a moment and said, "Each of these three rare treasures can be called a rare treasure."
He paused, then continued, "The first is the Blood Ganoderma, which possesses millennia-old effects. It must grow in a mass grave, absorbing a thousand years of resentment before it can take shape. The second is the Black Ice Jade Marrow, which can only be found deep within the ten-thousand-year-old black ice at the summit of Kunlun Mountain."
The air around him gradually solidified as Baichuan spoke, and a cold wind blew, sweeping up the fallen leaves on the ground.
The first two rare treasures alone have such harsh conditions.
"One is a thousand years, the other is ten thousand years, how can we find them?" Ye Lan's expression became more and more solemn.
"The third type is the Netherworld Earth Heart Lotus. None of the three can be missing." Bai Chuan's voice became lower and lower. It was obvious that he also knew how difficult it was.
After hearing Bai Chuan's words, Tan Tai Lie gave a bitter laugh: "These are just legendary things, how can they be found?"
"No." Bai Chuan shook his head. "Master, don't worry. I once saw in the old demon's notes where the blood ganoderma and the black ice jade were hidden."
Hearing this, hope ignited in Tan Tai Lie's eyes, and he hurriedly asked, "Oh, where is it?"
"It's in the secret vault of the Demonic Cult!" Baichuan said.
Shanying was eager to try and said, "What are you waiting for? I'll go get it right away."
After saying that, Shanying was about to pick up his sword and kill the Demon Sect to retrieve the rare treasure for Tan Tai Lie.
"No!" Bai Chuan stopped Shan Ying in time and explained, "You are the leader's confidant. I'm afraid you'll be discovered by the young leader's people before you even enter the Heavenly Demon Sect."
"Then what do you think we should do?" Shanying asked without any hesitation.
After thinking for a moment, Bai Chuan clasped his fists and said, "Let me go. I'm an elder in the sect, and I'm not openly close to the leader, so I won't arouse suspicion."
A dark light flashed in Tan Tai Lie's eyes, and a faint sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Baichuan has always been a man who keeps himself safe, so it is intriguing that he volunteered today.
"Elder Bai is thoughtful." He tapped the table with his fingertips, speaking slowly, "But the vault is heavily guarded, and there are Black Assassination Squads taking turns guarding it. I'm afraid..."
Baichuan's expression remained unchanged as he took out a black iron token from his sleeve and placed it on the table.
Tan Tai Lie recognized at a glance that this token was the Golden Feather Order issued to each elder when his father was in power. With this token, one can move freely in the sect.
"Golden Feather Order?"
"Indeed, the old Demon Lord gave us this token to win us over, and I have kept it till now."
However, once this token is revealed, Baichuan may not be able to stay in the Demonic Sect. After all, only he, Heijiang and several elders have this token.
When the time comes and someone's token is missing, his identity will naturally be exposed.
Tan Tai Lie seemed to see Bai Chuan's worry and said slowly, "Don't worry, Elder Bai. If you can help me recover my power, I will appoint you as the head elder. From now on, in the Tianmo Sect, besides me, you will be the most powerful person in the world."
As expected, these words resonated deeply with Bai Chuan. He had been dominated by Hei Jiang for years and he had had enough.
"Thank you, Master!"
The first two kinds of rare treasures have been solved.
"Where can we find the Dark Earth Heart Lotus?" Ye Lan asked.
"It's simple. I heard that there is one in the sacred pool of the Zoroastrianism in southern Xinjiang. It's hard to find the Nine Yang Absolute Vein." Bai Chuan frowned and said.
“Click!”
The sound of dead branches being stepped on and broken was heard. Mountain Eagle immediately became alert and shouted, "Who is eavesdropping? Come out!!"
The next second, Tang Xiaoyun stood up from outside the bamboo fence: "It's me."
He walked slowly into the yard holding Fusheng in his arms, with an expression on his face that was hard to describe and looked very ugly.
In fact, he had returned a long time ago and eavesdropped on their entire conversation. When he learned that in addition to rare treasures, the essence and blood of the Nine Yang Absolute Veins were necessary for Dan Tai Lie to recover his power, he felt complicated.
He and Tan Tai Lie had been fleeing here for some time, and he had long forgotten the fact that he was the Nine Yang Absolute Meridian. Now that it was mentioned again, he suddenly realized it.
It’s not that he doesn’t love Tan Tai Lie, he’s just simply afraid of death.
Seeing his grim expression, Tan Tai Lie asked worriedly, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
He shook his head and sat down in the empty seat next to Tan Tai Lie. He then looked at Bai Chuan and asked, "Elder Bai, is the Nine Yang Absolute Meridian necessary to restore power?"
"That's right, both are indispensable." Baichuan replied.
Tan Tai Lie frowned and thought: Why is he asking these questions?
"Then, what would you do if you found the Nine Yang Absolute Meridian?" Tang Xiaoyun asked again.
Bai Chuan glanced at him and said, "Of course, we must take the essence and blood from the heart of the Nine Yang Dead Meridians." He paused and added, "And it must be taken from a living being, and the person must be willing to sacrifice. Otherwise, the blood will clash, and the backlash will be enough to destroy the leader's soul."
As Baichuan finished speaking, a crow's cry suddenly came from the woods in the distance. It was so shrill and piercing that it startled Tang Xiaoyun and made him shiver.
He asked tentatively, "If I cut my heart, would it hurt? Would I die?"
Bai Chuan chuckled and said, "Pain is inevitable. As for whether or not one will die, that depends on the person's luck."
Hearing that he might die, Tang Xiaoyun's hands began to tremble. Seeing him like this, Tan Tai Lie frowned and asked, "Why are you shaking? Are you cold?"
The system's voice came from my mind, [Oh my god, this is so scary!]
Tang Xiaoyun said with a bitter face: [I know it's terrifying, but without the Nine Yang Absolute Meridians, the great demon's power cannot be restored.]
System: [But you might die. Aren’t you the one who values your life the most?]
Tang Xiaoyun consoled himself: [You also said it's possible. What if I get lucky?]
Tan Tai Lie, Bai Chuan, Ye Lan and Shan Ying all heard the conversation between Tang Xiaoyun and the system, and they all turned their heads to stare at Tang Xiaoyun.
Tan Tai Lie: What did he mean by that?
Tang Xiaoyun took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind. He turned to Bai Chuan and said, "You don't have to look for me anymore. I am..."
"no!!"
The stone table shattered with a loud bang, and Tan Tai Lie stood up suddenly, his robes fluttering in the wind. Although he had no internal energy, his innate majesty made everyone gasp.
Tang Xiaoyun was stunned. "You can't even finish my words. What do you want me to say?"
Of course he knew. Combining his conversation with the system just now, he had guessed that Tang Xiaoyun was the Nine Yang Absolute Meridian he had been looking for.
If it were in the past, he would have agreed without hesitation, but now he couldn't let Tang Xiaoyun make any mistakes.
"You don't have to say it..."
"How would you know if I didn't tell you? I said I am the Nine Yang Absolute Veins, so why not just use my blood?"
"I told you to stop talking!" Tan Tai Lie yelled at him.
When Tang Xiaoyun was yelled at, he suddenly felt very aggrieved. He was about to sacrifice himself, but he was still yelling at him.
Angry, he turned to Bai Chuan and said, "Elder Bai, don't listen to him. What do I need to do?"
"this……"
Baichuan looked at Tan Tai Lie in embarrassment. If he knew that the young lady was the one with the Nine Yang Absolute Meridian, he would never tell her even if he was beaten to death.
"Baichuan, is there any other alternative?" asked Tan Tai Lie.
Hearing this, Bai Chuan shook his head helplessly: "No, there is no other way."
This is a vicious cycle.
The atmosphere was tense for a moment. Shanying stole a glance at Tan Tai Lie and said bravely, "Master, this is the only way now. Besides, Elder Bai also said that it's only possible, not certain..."
"Shut up!" Tan Tai Lie scolded before Shan Ying finished speaking.
But this time, Shanying's stubborn temper also came out, and he said fearlessly: "Even if the leader wants to kill me, I will say that the young leader and the Blood Immortal want to massacre all the sects. Why not use the opportunity that is right in front of you?"
"Haha!" Tan Tai Lie suddenly laughed, but that smile was colder than winter: "Mountain Eagle, do you really think I can't bear to kill you?"
"Even if you kill my subordinates, you will still tell me!"
"Okay, then I'll grant your wish!" After saying that, Tan Tai Lie drew out the Mountain Eagle's long sword and placed it on his neck. When he was about to chop him down with the sword, a scolding sounded.
“That’s enough!!”
Tang Xiaoyun took two quick steps and stood between Tan Tai Lie and Shan Ying. He glared at Tan Tai Lie angrily and said, "How long are you going to be so stubborn when facing a powerful enemy?"
Tan Tai Lie's eyes were bloodshot, and his voice trembled as he said, "But you will die. If you die, how can I live alone?"
