He offered sacrifice
"I heard that you lost to Bai Linchuan last year?" Xu Hu said to the person in front of him.
Tai Shuhan was practicing swordplay. Upon hearing this, he suddenly turned the tip of his sword and shot it towards Xu Hu, stopping right in front of him.
"court death?"
Xu Hu took two steps back and said, "Your opponent this year is still him."
Tai Shuhan glanced at him indifferently, turned a deaf ear to him, and continued to practice sword.
Xu Hu added: "So you will still lose this year..."
Tai Shuhan paused and retracted his sword, "What on earth do you want to do?"
Xu Hu stepped forward and said, "You know you might not care about winning or losing, but doesn't your father care either? He can't beat Ding Haocang, so he's counting on you."
"What exactly do you want to do?" Tai Shuhan frowned and asked loudly.
Xu Hu said: "I have a way to help you win."
Tai Shuhan glanced up and down at Xu Hu. He was wearing a white robe and wasn't even an inner sect disciple. Tai Shuhan sneered, "You?"
Xu Hu said, "Do you know Bai Linchuan's Taoist companion Mo Xue? Ding Haocang taught him the sect's ancestral sword technique. As long as you obtain this sword technique, you can fight Bai Linchuan."
Tai Shuhan interrupted him and asked, "What good will this do you?"
Xu Hu said quietly, "My opponent is Mo Xie."
"Ha." Tai Shuhan laughed, "It would be really shameful if you couldn't even beat him."
Xu Hu glared at him. "Not everyone is born Bai Linchuan, and not everyone is born the son of an inner sect elder."
Tai Shuhan coughed lightly and retracted his sneer. "Okay, what are you going to do?"
Xu Hu said, "Keep an eye on Mo Xue. When he's alone, surround him and force him to reveal his ancestral sword technique."
Tai Shuhan thought about it and wondered why they came to find him. He hesitated for a moment and nodded. They were just asking about swordsmanship.
…
However, for two days in a row, Mo Xue and Bai Linchuan were inseparable and inseparable.
The spring evening breeze was still cold, so the two of them squatted in the bushes outside the yard and spent two nights in close contact with mosquitoes.
Tai Shuhan couldn't bear it any longer and stood up and said, "I quit."
Xu Hu grabbed him and dragged him behind the bushes. "Are you going to give up all your efforts now?"
Tai Shuhan said, "Tomorrow is the sect competition. What have we done these past two days? Just watching these two people in heat everywhere and those two flying balls. We might as well practice a few more moves with this time."
Xu Hu snorted coldly and replied, "If practicing a few more moves would have been useful, you would have won long ago..."
"..." Tai Shuhan squatted down again in a sullen tone, "Mo Xue has only been meditating and practicing these past few days, and hasn't practiced swordsmanship. Do you think... he might not have any ancestral swordsmanship at all?"
Xu Hu was unsure, but if he let Tai Shuhan go, he would be truly out of options.
"Of course there is." He said firmly.
Tai Shuhan glanced at him in disbelief. As the sun was about to rise, Tai Shuhan said, "My father is here to check today. If you have any questions, please communicate with me."
"Hey." Xu Hu shouted, but Tai Shuhan had already slipped out of the bushes.
Xu Hu had no choice but to believe him and squatted silently behind the bushes, waving his hands to fan away the annoying mosquitoes.
Not long after Tai Shuhan left, when Xu Hu was dozing off with his head propped up, the door suddenly opened and Mo Xue walked out, then closed the door behind him.
After Mo Xie walked a few steps, no one followed him out. Xu Hu's eyes lit up, and when Mo Xie turned the corner, he immediately walked out.
He first climbed into the yard cautiously, opened the window and took a look. Bai Linchuan was lying on the bed with a pale face. He looked like he was sick. This was a good opportunity for Mo Xue to be alone.
Xu Hu hurriedly climbed out of the yard and followed him out, sending a message to Tai Shuhan.
There was a narrow gap in the window, and a cool breeze blew into the house.
Mo Xu was walking on the stone steps. Xu Hutou slowly emerged from the bushes behind him and followed him quietly. It was daytime and there were many people coming and going on the road. Mo Xu did not notice the sound of someone following him.
He walked leisurely all the way to the border of the abyss.
Not long after he arrived, another figure in black slowly emerged from the abyss. He was dressed in black and had a black hat, so his face could not be seen clearly.
Xu Hu was startled. Who was this man in black? Why did he come out of the abyss? He immediately sent a message to Tai Shuhan again, three times in a row. "Abyss! Come quickly! Come quickly! Come quickly!"
He listened quietly, hoping to find something to hold against Mo Xue so that he would hand over his ancestral swordsmanship.
In the sunlight, there was still a dead silence around the abyss barrier. The tall banyan tree had forked and dry branches, casting a hideous shadow. The cold air blew, and it was inexplicably terrifying.
Mo Xue frowned doubtfully and stepped forward, shouting, "Wei Si..."
Under the black hat, a pair of upturned lips were revealed, "Long time no see, Mo Xue."
Mo Xue suddenly exerted force, grabbed Wei Si's neck, and pressed him against the tree. "Who are you?"
Wei Si said calmly, "Come in broad daylight, you won't be afraid of being discovered."
"This is the only time I can come," Mo Xie said, adding a little more strength to his hands. "What do you know about me?"
Wei Si remained silent and said, "It seems that Bai Linchuan is keeping a close eye on you. It's a pity that a person born in darkness cannot prevent him from falling into the abyss."
"Don't interrupt!" Mo Xie's eyes turned cold.
Wei Si sighed, "Do you really care? Haven't you already noticed something's wrong with me? You just knew it and pretended."
Mo Xue glanced at him and withdrew his hand. "I don't care who you are, as long as... you can help me."
Wei Si rubbed his neck, "Is Bai Linchuan's blood parasite not acting up?"
Mo Xue looked away, "No... His Heart Purification Curse has been much more effective recently. Even if the blood parasite attacks, it won't achieve the same effect as before."
Wei Si suddenly smiled and asked, "Are you going to give up on him?"
Mo Xie said loudly: "I have another idea."
Wei Si smiled and said, "There is a method, but...what if it's you who needs to be sacrificed?"
Mo Xie was silent for a moment, then asked, "What method?"
Wei Si handed him a jade screen. "This is Thousand Barriers Liquid. Consuming one drop will instantly increase a cultivator's strength, no matter how high their cultivation level is. If you... consume a whole bottle... your strength will be comparable to Bai Linchuan's. But the consequence is... your Dantian may not be able to support the surge in cultivation, and you will die suddenly."
Mo Xie asked, "How long can it last after taking it?"
Wei Si said, "One hour at most."
Mo Xie turned to leave after asking his question, but Wei Si stopped him, "Mo Xie, we're fellow cultivators, but I want to warn you again. Do you really want to go to such lengths to achieve your goal?"
Mo Xue turned around and asked quietly, "Do you know my purpose?"
Wei Si said: "Don't you just want to destroy..."
Wei Si's voice was too soft, and Xu Hu stretched his head as far as he could to listen. He accidentally bumped into a tree branch, which made a slight shimmering sound.
Mo Xue suddenly turned his head and looked at the bushes. Wei Si flashed back and his figure disappeared at the edge of the abyss in an instant.
Xu Hu covered his nose and held his breath. The movement he just made was no different from the wind blowing through the treetops, but the look in Mo Xue's eyes just now scared him.
The sound disappeared again. Mo Xu turned around and found that Wei Si was gone.
Mo Xue walked back slowly holding the jade bottle. It would take some time before Bai Linchuan woke up, so he was not in a hurry.
However, at this moment, a figure rushed out from the bushes in front of him, pressed Mo Xue against the tree, and pinned his arms and shoulders.
Mo Xue turned his head as hard as he could and saw a person in white clothes. "Who are you?"
Xu Hu sighed inwardly, wondering why Tai Shuhan hadn't come yet. He tightly grasped one of Mo Xue's arms, restraining him, and said in a low voice, "I heard everything you just said."
Mo Xue clasped Yu Ping tightly, his eyes flashing with a hint of darkness, "You..."
Xu Hu continued, "You really want to cheat and win the sect competition!"
Mo Xue's hand suddenly loosened again, "So what?"
Xu Hu was speechless for a moment, as if he had not expected such a shameless person to exist. "This is against the sect's rules!"
"Then what?" Mo Xie asked.
Mo Xue was too calm. Xu Hu swallowed his saliva and said in a calm voice, "As long as you tell me the ancestral sword technique of the sect, I won't expose you."
"Ha! So this is what you are talking about. Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Mo Xue suddenly made a move, and with a flash of his hand, he easily broke free from Xu Hu's control.
Xu Hu didn't expect him to break free so easily. Mo Cu pressed on, and Xu Hu slowly retreated, pointing at him and saying, "I... I have to tell you, don't make the same mistake again..."
"The true nature of all living beings." Mo Xue suddenly spoke out.
Xu Hu was stunned. "What is this?"
Mo Xue raised an arrogant smile, "Ancestral swordsmanship..."
Xu Hu frowned, "Are you lying to me?"
Mo Xue slowly stepped forward and lifted the lid of the jade screen with his thumb. "Since you don't believe me... then I have nothing more to say. I only believe in the secrets of the dead."
Xu Hu slowly retreated, "Mo Xue...don't mess around, I'm telling you...I'm telling you, Tai Shuhan will be on his way soon."
Mo Xie raised a wicked smile, but his eyes were extremely dark and serious. He said slowly: "It doesn't matter who comes. Who asked you to appear here?"
Suddenly, a burst of spiritual energy flew out and knocked Mo Xue to the ground. The jade bottle flew out of his hand, the Thousand Zhang Liquid flowed all over the ground, and the jade bottle rolled to the feet of the person who came.
Xu Hu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, "Tai Shuhan...you're here. Come on, let's find out the ancestral sword technique."
But Tai Shuhan's face was heavy, he shook his head slightly suggestively, and his expression was distorted.
Before Xu Hu could figure out what was going on, a hand suddenly pulled Tai Shuhan away. Tai Shuhan staggered two steps to the right, revealing Elder Tai Shu Haokuo behind him.
Xu Hu's smile gradually froze, and a crack appeared on his stiff face. It was over...
Taishu Haokuo slowly stepped forward, picked up the jade bottle, put it under his nose and sniffed it, his expression suddenly changed, "Whose is this?"
Xu Hu pointed at the fallen Mo Xue, "His..."
Taishu Haokuo quickly stepped forward, grabbed Moxue, and pulled him up, "Let me ask you... why do you have something from the demon world?"
Mo Xue grabbed Tai Shu Haokuo's hand frantically, but he was not as soft-hearted as Bai Linchuan. His brows were furious and he showed no mercy.
Tai Shuhan helped Xu Hu up, and Xu Hu interrupted, "I know, I saw it. A man in black just came out of the abyss. It was he who gave Mo Xue a jade bottle, saying that as long as he drank it, his spiritual power would surge. Elder, Mo Xue is trying to cheat in the competition!"
Tai Shuhan pulled Xu Hu and said that this was no longer a question of cheating in the competition. Mo Xue was involved with the demon world.
According to the sect's rules... their spiritual power should be revoked and they should be expelled from the sect. In serious cases, they will be judged on the spot.
Taishu Haokuo asked, "Do your elders know about this?"
Mo Xue glanced at Xu Hu behind Tai Shu Hao Kuo and said with difficulty, "I just want to win the competition...other than that, it has nothing to do with anyone else."
Taishu Haokuo: "Where is Bai Linchuan?"
Mo Xie smiled, "It was him... who kept forcing me to practice diligently. I couldn't stand it, so..."
The forest was silent, when suddenly there was a sudden sound of footsteps. Xu Hu and Tai Shuhan stood still, and Tai Shuhaokuo did not move either. They looked behind Mo Xue in surprise.
The footsteps behind me were getting closer and closer, and a chill was slowly approaching.
It was so cold, it was cold from the bottom of my heart, so painful...
"Mo Xue..." A familiar voice came into my ears.
Mo Xue turned his head with difficulty. Bai Linchuan's clothes were disheveled, with his outer robe draped loosely on his body. His face was pale and he looked cold, but his eyes were still frighteningly red.
Taishu Haokuo noticed that Bai Linchuan was not in the right state and shouted, "Bai Linchuan! Stop!"
However, Bai Linchuan did not stop, but walked forward step by step firmly. The green grass at his feet froze in an instant, and his shoes crushed it into ice powder.
Mo Xie's hand slowly dropped...
Time goes back to half an hour ago.
A gust of cold wind blew into the room, and Bai Linchuan struggled to open his heavy eyelids. He soon realized that something was wrong. His condition was not so serious when Mo Xue left. There was a crack in the window. Bai Linchuan climbed out of bed, pushed open the window, breathed in the fresh air, and turned around to see the incense sticks that were already half burned.
He walked forward and saw that it was the love incense.
Bai Linchuan's fingers were ashen and veins bulged. He pinched off the incense stick and powder fell from his hands.
"Mo, cut!"
He has been setting traps for him these days!
Fortunately, he was careful and placed a tracking talisman on Mo Xue. Bai Linchuan hurriedly put on his coat and walked out the door.
The journey was uneventful and nothing major happened. Bai Linchuan hoped that he was worrying too much, but he couldn't convince himself why Mo Xue had placed the incense.
The lingering fragrance was still in his body, his head was dizzy and aching, waiting for something unfortunate to happen was a kind of torture, he felt as if he was on the way to the execution platform, waiting for the executioner to bring down the killing knife.
He walked step by step, prayed step by step, tortured step by step, until he stopped at the edge of the abyss.
But at this moment, he was still waiting for the arrival of pardon, and there was a glimmer of hope in his heart, perhaps there was some misunderstanding...
Until he stepped forward and heard it with his own ears: "He has been forcing me to practice diligently, and I can't stand it, so..."
A surge of rage surged in Bai Linchuan's chest, tearing him apart. He exhaled coldly:
"Mo Xie..."
Mo Xue's face darkened, but Tai Shu Hao Kuo's hand was still pinching his neck, "Bai Linchuan, this matter has nothing to do with you!"
Bai Linchuan sneered. At this point, could it be that he had forgotten his promise and finally couldn't act anymore and was going to push him away?
"Bai Linchuan!" Taishu Haokuo shouted again, "Mo Xue has violated the sect's rules. Are you going to issue an order and take him away?"
Bai Linchuan did not stop walking, Taishu Haokuo pinched Mo Xue's neck hard, Mo Xue's face turned red, and he struggled up and down with his feet.
Bai Linchuan no longer stopped, his face as heavy as iron.
Taishu Haokuo's face suddenly turned furious. He couldn't beat Ding Haocang, but could he not subdue his disciple?
A red blade of spiritual energy attacked Bai Linchuan. Bai Linchuan waved his finger and the ice froze the red blade. Then, the majestic spiritual energy broke through the red blade, and the surrounding trees tilted instantly. The air twisted and deformed, and the grass on the ground broke and turned into ice blades. The spiritual energy wrapped around the ice blades and hit Tai Shu Haokuo.
Taishu Haokuo drew a barrier to block it, but it broke in an instant. He flew back several meters and hit the tree heavily.
The banyan tree was vulnerable. Its thick trunk broke with a snap and fell to the ground, raising a thick cloud of dust.
Taishu Haokuo fell to the ground and spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Father!" Tai Shuhan hurried forward and helped him up.
Mo Xue collapsed to the ground, exhausted. Bai Linchuan continued to advance. Xu Hu was so frightened that he was frozen and unable to move. "What...what are you going to do?"
Mo Xue slowly raised his head. The red mist in Bai Linchuan's eyes was gradually spreading. He was surrounded by a red mist, with only the liar in front of him.
He stood in front of Mo Xue.
Tai Shuhan shouted, "Xu Hu, go find Elder Ding Haocang, go quickly!"
"Oh...oh." Xu Hu finally came back to his senses and ran out with trembling legs.
Bai Linchuan knelt on the ground and grabbed Mo Xue's neck. Before Mo Xue could recover, his neck was grabbed again. He had no choice but to raise his head high, "Bai Linchuan... calm down first..."
Bai Linchuan stared at him, "You lied to me again..."
"I..." Mo Xie opened his mouth and closed it again.
Bai Linchuan continued, "You dare to say that you didn't break your oath."
Mo Xue lowered his head, "Linchuan..."
Bai Linchuan suddenly clenched his hands tightly. It was understandable that he was not trusted at the beginning, but if he still told lies after opening his heart to each other, it was unforgivable.
Bai Linchuan walked under the sun, but when he looked back, he found that the sun was fake from the beginning to the end. How could he remain calm?
Behind him, Taishu Haokuo slowly woke up. He opened his eyes and frowned, shouting, "Bai Linchuan, how dare you attack the elders? Mo Xue, how dare you collude with the demon clan? You two have committed a grave offense. Why don't you surrender quickly..."
Tai Shuhan covered Tai Shuhaokuo's mouth with his hand. He understood clearly the attack that Bai Linchuan had just made. Before, he still had a delusion that he could defeat Bai Linchuan, but now, he didn't even dare to think about it.
While his father was still shouting, Tai Shuhan was so upset that he covered his mouth with his hands.
Bai Linchuan had already ignored all the things and sounds around him. His voice was so cold and so light. He asked, "Mo Xue, I'm going to ask you one last time, have you ever loved me?"
Mo Xue looked at him, and he blinked gently. The warm smile in his eyes was no longer there, and he even stopped lying. It was like a dark cold pond that swept over Bai Linchuan.
"Bai Linchuan, have you forgotten why I provoked you in the first place?"
Bai Linchuan sighed in his chest, "Yes, you hate me. You hate my superiority."
When love reaches a certain concentration, it turns into bone-eating hatred. Bai Linchuan suddenly stared at Mo Xue coldly and said, "What if... you became me?"
Mo Xue paused abruptly, not caring about the two onlookers at this moment. He said fiercely, "What are you doing? Don't mess around."
Bai Linchuan grabbed Mo Xue's neck and pressed it against his forehead. A white light suddenly burst out from it, and the dazzling white light drowned everything. Tai Shu Haokuo and Tai Shuhan closed their eyes tightly.
The two people in the white light felt a huge suction force binding them tightly together.
Mo Xue was panicked, but knew something was definitely wrong. He tried desperately to push Bai Linchuan away, but it was of no avail.
My sight disappeared in the vast white light, and there was a sharp tinnitus in my ears.
Suddenly, Bai Linchuan kissed him on the lips, and then a ball of scorching spiritual energy rushed into his body, so violent and overbearing that Mo Xie did not have time to resist. His Adam's apple moved, and his body instantly felt as if it was burning with pain.
The cold spiritual energy burned his meridians, flowing from his throat into his chest and then to his dantian, causing his internal organs to swell up instantly.
"Ah——" Mo Xie couldn't bear it anymore and screamed miserably.
Bai Linchuan's chest was burning and tearing. He condensed his dantian into a elixir, cut open his bones and blood, drew out all his spiritual energy, and fed it to Mo Xue.
Mo Xue felt extremely full, he had never felt so full before, as if it was about to burst his flesh and blood. He rushed out and roared wildly. His whole body was full of strength, and he suddenly pushed Bai Linchuan away.
However, he was not used to his strength and pushed Bai Linchuan very far away. Bai Linchuan let go of his hand before he could push him away. He flew several meters away and fell into the abyss.
Mo Xue hurriedly climbed forward. The white light gradually faded away, and the tinnitus disappeared. Before he passed out, he only saw Bai Linchuan falling into the dark swamp. The thick black mucus crawled up his body little by little, dyeing him black and dirty, and swallowed him up without leaving anything behind. In the end, only his pale face was left.
Mo Xie saw Bai Linchuan smile. He smiled coldly and said almost silently, "Mo Xie, don't you hate me? You want to destroy me, you want to kill me. Now, my elixir is in your body.
If you want to kill me, kill yourself first."
Bai Linchuan finally looked at Mo Xue deeply, his eyes filled with hatred for revenge and deep love.
He wanted him to live, wanted him to live with him...
He will fight with him to the end, until death!
Mo Xue lay exhausted on the ground, his eyelids drooping heavily, the world returned to darkness, and a crystal tear flowed from the corner of his eye.
Isn't this what he expected... But why is he in so much pain...
