It's easy to kill, but it seems difficult to solve it completely. Whether it's Jiang Laodao or the "dead" old man in front of him, there is a layer of aura on them that he can't see through. Chen Luo suspected that these two guys mastered some kind of life-saving secrets. Even if he killed someone here, the brain would probably not be able to receive it.
There is also the possibility of completely losing the line of Jietiandao.
"Aren't you guys in Jietiandao very poor?"
Chen Luo looked at the Taoist Jiang next to him again. This old guy never told the truth.
It's true that 'honest people don't talk much'.
"No need to look at him, he knows nothing. In a sect like ours with a long heritage, only the leader knows these secrets." The 'dead' old man said with a smile.
"Master? When did you become the Master?!"
Taoist Jiang's face was filled with shock. Even the flagpole in his hand was bent, and the four words "Iron Mouth Straight Forward" on it turned into "How Is It Possible".
"Nonsense, there are only two of us left in the sect now, and I am older than you! If I am not the head, then who is it, you?"
"You are already dead!"
"Not dead yet."
Chen Luo ignored the two's words. He quietly withdrew his consciousness and couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. The area of this cave was very small, equivalent to a village. Except for where they were now, the rest was all vegetable fields.
He didn't find any of the lonely graves that Taoist Jiang mentioned.
"Where is your predecessor from Jie Tian Dao buried? I want to go and pay my respects first." Chen Luo was too lazy to beat around the bush with them and asked directly.
No matter what this 'dead' old man's plan was, he didn't want to pay attention to it.
He came here with only one goal.
Digging graves to borrow brains.
"It's in the vegetable garden at the back. I'll take you there." The 'dead' old man was very easy to talk to. Upon hearing Chen Luo's question, he stood up and led the way without saying a word.
A moment later.
Chen Luo and Jiang Laodao looked at the green vegetable fields around them and fell silent at the same time.
"Where's the grave?!"
Taoist Jiang looked at the dead old man and couldn't help asking. He remembered that when he left in the morning, this place was still a cemetery. How come it turned into a vegetable field in the blink of an eye? What did this half-dead "senior brother" do to the ancestors?
"After you left this morning, I was bored, so I flattened the grave of our ancestors and planted some cabbage. You know what, our ancestors of Jie Tian Dao have plenty of fertility. The vegetable seedlings planted here grow fat and fast, and the taste is also exceptionally sweet."
The 'dead' old man searched in the vegetable garden and found a leg bone from under a cabbage.
"Found it. This should be the leg bone of the second generation ancestor. Just give it a try."
The 'dead' old man was holding a withered leg bone with two vegetable roots hanging on it.
Chen Luo fell completely silent.
Taoist Jiang next to him was also dumbfounded. He had known for a long time that this "dead" senior brother was unreliable, but he didn't expect him to be so unreliable! He used the bones of the ancestors of the sect to fertilize the fields, and he couldn't find a second one in the entire cultivation world.
"Not worshiping anymore?"
Seeing that Chen Luo did not move, the 'dead' old man buried the leg bone back with some regret.
"That's it, as long as you get the point."
The 'dead' old man stood up, patted Jiang Laodao's shoulder with his muddy palm, and wiped off the mud.
"Junior brother, you don't know. After you left this morning, I did another divination. The divination showed that our ancestors were in danger and had to be buried in a vegetable field to escape."
"Don't tell me about your bullshit."
Taoist Master Jiang was so angry that his face turned green.
If he could defeat him, he really wanted to bury this senior brother together with him and use him as fertilizer for the cabbages underneath.
Unlike Jiang Laodao, Chen Luo, who was standing next to him, narrowed his eyes suddenly after hearing the words of the "dead man" old man, and became slightly interested in the "divination" mentioned by the two brothers. Could it be that this old man had predicted that he would come to dig the grave, so he dug it first?
"Now that the ancestors have been worshipped, let's continue discussing cooperation."
"I still don't know what to call you friend." Chen Luo asked.
"His name is Wei Dao, you can just call him the old man."
Taoist Jiang was still angry about the fact that his ancestor's tomb was turned into a vegetable field. Although he was not a good person, he would not do such a thing. In his opinion, the "dead" old man was a traitor who should be struck by lightning.
Defend the Dao?
Chen Luo thought about it in his mind and also called up his external brain, but there was no information about this name.
"Sit down and eat while we talk."
The old man Wei Dao had already set up the table and chairs, and placed a large iron pot on top. No one knew what kind of meat was being cooked in it, but after a while, the aroma of meat wafted out of the pot. When he went to "worship" the ancestor just now, he also used his spiritual power to clean the cabbage he had picked up and threw it into the pot to cook.
"This is the hind leg meat of a fifth-level pig demon. It's very nutritious."
Taoist Jiang sat down angrily, took out a set of bowls and chopsticks from his storage bag, scooped out a large piece of meat for himself, and picked up a piece of cabbage.
You know what, it tastes really good.
"Where were we talking about?"
"cooperate."
Taoist Jiang supplemented while eating. He could see that his senior brother must have seen something, so he pretended to be dead and ran out. No wonder he came out early in the morning to tell his fortune, it turned out that he had planned it in advance.
"Yes, cooperation! Just now, fellow Daoist also said that he wanted the resources of the Tribulation Realm. We have a lot of such things in Jie Tian Dao, but if you want to take these things away, you need to do us a favor."
Chen Luo glanced at the two old guys and turned away.
The grave is gone.
A lot of things to do.
trouble!
Since they were all cooperating, why not go find the Lord of Yongye Valley? When he came in before, he had left a trick outside, and the secret realm of Jietiandao's cave could not trap him.
"Speaking of which, this matter is also related to the Wanxiang Immortal Sect under your command." Wei Dao continued speaking, as if he did not see Chen Luo's actions.
"You have a little girl named Ning Jing in Wanxiang Xianmen."
"who?"
Chen Luo frowned.
He remembered that he had just accepted Ning Jing as his disciple not long ago, and not many people should know about this. How did this old guy know about it?
"There is a remnant soul in this little girl's body."
"Residual soul?"
Chen Luo thought of the method of possessing a body, a secret method that existed in the Emperor's Tomb World. It was not uncommon in the outside world of immortal cultivation. Many powerful immortal cultivators mastered the secret technique of possessing a body. Chen Luo himself was also an expert in the art of possessing a body. The old fox in him was born to do this.
"This residual soul is very ancient. We suspect that it is the immortal soul that fell from the upper realm." Wei Dao ate hot pot while waving and knocking on the side.
A jade slip flew out from the side and fell into Chen Luo's hands.
Eighty thousand years ago, the fairy world changed.
The first few words instantly aroused Chen Luo's interest. As one of the oldest forces in the world of immortal cultivation, Jie Tian Dao knew many secrets unknown to the outside world. Just like the changes in the immortal world, Chen Luo had heard many related rumors, but no one knew the specific time point.
Jie Tian Dao's side is the only one with a clear record.
After the great changes in the Immortal Realm, the Immortal Cultivation Realm also changed. The most obvious change was the "Immortal Realm Passage", the "opportunity" that countless powerful people outside were fighting for, and that was this passage. The second was the Immortal Remnant Soul, which fell from the Immortal Realm along with the great changes 80,000 years ago.
Behind every residual soul there is an immortal and an opportunity.
For those monks who have only survived the 19th heavenly tribulation, the immortal soul is their only chance to change their fate. As long as they absorb the immortal soul, they can inherit the immortal's heritage, and at the very least they can grow to the realm of the residual soul before its death.
This path is very similar to the 'Corpse Immortal Path' that Chen Luo encountered in the Emperor's Tomb World.
"So you want the immortal soul?"
Chen Luo crushed the jade slip and looked at Wei Dao carefully.
No matter what secrets Ning Jing has, he will not sell her out because Ning Jing is his apprentice, even if this apprentice has only been here for one day, he is still his apprentice!
"Do you know why our Jietian Dao was able to join the Ten Thousand Races Alliance?"
Wei Dao put down his chopsticks and looked at Chen Luo with a smile.
He said so much just to make this matter clear.
Give Chen Luo a choice. Using the resources of the Tribulation Realm to exchange for his apprentice is also a great honor. If Chen Luo was just an ordinary casual cultivator, Wei Dao would naturally not waste so much time with him. But he couldn't see through Chen Luo's cultivation, and even sensed a hint of threat from this person.
This forced him to be cautious.
There were only two people left in Jie Tian Dao. If they were not careful, they would be wiped out. The original plan of the Winged People and the Golden Ants was to go to Wanxiang Xianmen to rob people, but doing so would definitely offend people to death. By then, they would be the ones to take the lead.
"They want immortal souls?"
Chen Luo instantly understood a lot of things, and also understood why Taoist Jiang was wandering around the inner city of the deserted city.
"That's right."
Wei Dao nodded in affirmation.
"We are weak in Jietian Dao, and we can only obey the orders of the top clans in the alliance. Daoist friend, you went to Yongye Valley to discuss this matter with the Lord of Yongye Valley, right?"
Although Wei Dao had been staying inside the door, he seemed to be very clear about what was happening outside.
Chen Luo glanced at the Eternal Night Valley token in his hand and frowned slightly.
The Lord of Eternal Night Valley did not tell him these things, but only told him that there were a number of resources in Eternal Night Valley that he could use. Now it seemed that the other party had invited him over with the intention of discussing the matter of the 'Immortal Soul' with him.
The Alliance of All Races is at a disadvantage in the confrontation with the Blood Demon and the Nine Tomb Guarding Clans. In order to turn the situation around, they will definitely do whatever it takes.
"It costs extra money."
Chen Luo suddenly spoke.
These people have been planning for so long, they must have had a plan in mind.
Even if I refuse openly, they will do it secretly. Instead of doing this, it is better to control the direction of the development of things in my own hands. (End of this chapter)
