The scene fell silent for a moment, and everyone looked at Rong Jiaojiao, waiting for her to speak.
Jun Yuangui thought to himself, "These two old bastards dared to scheme against my disciple; they'd better pray they don't fall into my hands."
A chill ran down Xuanji Daoren and Han Yunshen's spines, and their eyes sharpened involuntarily.
Rong Jiaojiao kept communicating with Yue Ling, who said, "Master, you can accept this mission. With me here, the ley lines won't erupt."
"Due to the convergence of spiritual veins underground over the past ten thousand years, many spiritual pearls have been generated. If you take these spiritual pearls and put them into a small secret realm, they can grow into spiritual veins over time."
"Furthermore, due to the bloodthirsty aura of the demonic master's soul, there must be many treasures below."
Rong Jiaojiao asked it, "Is it a treasure like the Xuan Yin Jade Marrow?"
Yue Ling nodded: "There is also the possibility of giving birth to something extremely yang."
Rong Jiaojiao found out, but these people always have to pay a price.
At the same time, Mo Bai also received the same suggestion from Heiwa, but Mo Bai said, "They may not agree to me going down to help suppress the earth veins."
"Master, you can just say that you are going to accompany Yue Ling's master."
Mo Bai's eyes flickered; of course, he had thought of that too.
But we can't let these people off too easily.
Rong Jiaojiao asked, "I wonder how long it will take to refine the earth veins, as you mentioned, senior?"
Han Yunshen was taken aback, then solemnly replied, "At least thirty years."
Qing Xuanzi turned around abruptly: "Jiaobao! You..."
He felt betrayed; he was fighting for her, but what was she doing?
A little sad, but still grabbed Rong Jiaojiao's arm: "Jiaobao, don't do anything silly!"
Seeing his anxiety, Rong Jiaojiao felt a warmth in her heart and quickly sent him a telepathic message: "Master, I have Yue Ling's help, nothing will happen."
"And there's treasure down there."
Upon receiving the telepathic message, Qing Xuanzi was shocked, but his expression remained unchanged, still showing an anxious look of disapproval.
Rong Jiaojiao said righteously, "Master, someone has to do this, and I'm the most suitable person, aren't I?"
"If the demonic master escapes, no one in the world will be able to escape."
Rong Jiaojiao's eyes were sincere. "Someone has to make sacrifices. It's better to sacrifice me than to sacrifice a large number of people."
Qing Xuanzi slumped down and said, "Then I will accompany you. My natal magic weapon is also the Twelve Yuan Chen Formation. There is no reason for you to suppress it alone for decades."
"No, I don't agree," Rong Jiaojiao said urgently.
"Your word doesn't count. I'm your master, and you have to listen to me."
"Master, please stay. My parents are getting old and may not live to see me return. Please stay and look after them for me."
Rong Jiaojiao spoke from the heart, and tears welled up in her eyes, making those close to her feel heartbroken.
Lin Xiaoman said loudly, "Jiaojiao, from now on your parents are my parents, and I will fulfill your filial duty for you."
Jun Yuangui also said, "If you insist on going, I will take good care of your parents in the future."
Rong Jiaojiao looked at them gratefully and nodded vigorously: "Thank you!"
Mo Bai stepped forward: "Then I'll go too."
"Young Master?"
"Nonsense!"
These are the voices of Mo Zhizhou and Mo Zhenting.
Han Yun frowned deeply: "Fellow Daoist Mo, this matter is of utmost importance..."
Mo Bai seized the opportunity to confess: "I love Jiao Jiao, and I want to be with her, no matter what."
Qing Xuanzi glared at him angrily, "I don't want you to go."
Qi Lan suddenly spoke up: "In that case, why don't the five of us who hold the seals go together?"
"No!" the Celestial Mystery Master exclaimed urgently, "The earth's veins can't withstand so many people..."
"Who said we were going to enter the earth's veins?" Jun Yuangui said coldly, holding his sword. "We've set up a sword formation on the outer perimeter, ready to provide support at any time."
Rong Jiaojiao gently pressed Qing Xuanzi's hand: "Master, let me go." She turned to the crowd, her voice clear: "But I have conditions."
Han Yunshen's expression relaxed: "Speak freely."
"First, I need Mo Bai to accompany me."
Before she could finish speaking, Mo Zhizhou slammed his hand on the table and stood up: "No way!"
Mo Bai had already stood beside her: "I volunteer to go."
"Secondly," Rong Jiaojiao continued, "I want the 'Earth Vein Atlas' treasured by each sect, as well as the cultivation resources that Mo Bai and I have accumulated over the past thirty years."
The Celestial Mystery Daoist frowned: "Forget about cultivation resources, what do you need the Earth Vein Map for?"
"Study the characteristics of the earth's veins to improve the success rate." She remained calm.
Han Yun took a deep breath: "Okay."
“Third,” she said, her gaze sweeping over the crowd, “each faction must compensate my Xuanqing Sect and the Mo Family, and swear here that, regardless of my success or failure, I will never force any cultivator of the Twelve Yuan Chen Body to do anything.”
Better safe than sorry. Her master's natal magic weapon was the same as hers, the Twelve Yuan Chen Formation. She didn't know what the Twelve Yuan Chen Formation was, but she wanted to eliminate any potential problems.
The hall fell silent. This condition effectively thwarted all future schemes by various factions.
"Okay." Han Yun Shen finally nodded.
…………
Three days later, in front of the Demon-Suppressing Stele.
Rong Jiaojiao was dressed in a moon-white robe, while Mo Bai stood beside her in a black robe.
“Remember,” Qing Xuanzi instructed, his eyes red-rimmed, “the deadline is thirty years. You must come back by then, no matter what.”
"I know, Master." Rong Jiaojiao smiled and winked. "Take good care of yourself, and don't be stingy with the pills and spirit stones I'm given. Also..." she said solemnly, "Please take care of my parents for me."
Qing Xuanzi patted her head: "I know!"
He looked at Mo Bai: "Kid, take good care of Jiaojiao!"
Mo Bai patted his chest and guaranteed, "I swear on my life."
Mo Zhizhou cried out anxiously, "Young Master!"
Mo Bai smiled and said to Mo Zhizhou, "Go back and prepare some spirit wine for me, so I can go back and get married!"
After speaking, he looked at Rong Jiaojiao.
Rong Jiaojiao rolled her eyes. Wasn't it because she wanted him to come down with her so that Heiwa could recover more?
Little did she know, her bright red ears betrayed her thoughts.
Jun Yuangui, Lin Xiaoman, and Qi Lan stood not far away watching them.
Too many farewells have been said, so there's no need to say anything more now.
As Han Yunshen activated the grand formation, twelve pillars of light shot into the sky.
Rong Jiaojiao and Mo Bai's figures gradually disappeared into the light.
…………
This feels like another world.
The dark rock face was inlaid with glowing crystals. "There really is a spirit pearl." Rong Jiaojiao pointed to the bright spots that shimmered in the rock crevice.
Yue Ling immediately flew over and put the spirit pearl into the small secret realm.
Suddenly, Heiwa let out a low growl. In the cave ahead, a cloud of black mist was devouring the earth's spiritual energy.
"It's a demonic soul fragment!" Mo Bai immediately formed a hand seal.
Heiwa transformed into a giant dog and pounced, engaging in a fierce battle with the black mist.
Rong Jiaojiao formed hand seals, and twelve golden lotuses bloomed from beneath her feet: "Purify!"
As the golden lotus bloomed, the black mist emitted a piercing scream and was eventually purified.
