Chapter 453 There is no such thing as fate, it's all your own choice
The moment Li Lin heard the footsteps, he wrapped himself in a black robe and put on a mask.
This mask is one of the magic weapons that the Immortal Palace came up with after much effort in order to prevent him from being found by Xiao Yun. It can hide his aura.
Not long after, some cultivators came to this dark corner. Their cultivation levels varied, ranging from Qi training to Nascent Soul stage. The clothes they wore did not seem to be from any powerful sect.
Li Lin noticed that these monks were both nervous and expectant. Thinking of the opportunities and tests mentioned by the monk from Mumao Sect, Li Lin knew why these monks came here.
Opportunities and tests are fake, but using these people to do some dirty and tiring work is probably real.
Li Lin lowered his eyes, thought for a moment, and came up with a plan. He jumped down and said coldly, "No noise allowed, form a square formation."
Seeing that Li Lin's whole body was emitting a strong and unquestionable aura, the monks suddenly became nervous and lined up in a hurry, not even daring to breathe.
Li Lin put his hands behind his back and said coldly, "You want to cultivate immortality? Do you want to develop in a better sect?"
The monks nodded quickly, with a hint of yearning in their eyes, but behind that yearning was flattery.
This scene made Li Lin feel helpless and regretful. His tone was as stern as that of a great scholar, "You should be considered the chosen ones in your respective sects, but do you know what will happen if you go to a so-called better sect?"
The monks were at a loss. After a while of noise, one of them raised his hand and cautiously tested the situation. "We know the gap between us and others. Even if we go to a better sect, we probably won't be reused. But what we want is an opportunity."
The other cultivators nodded one after another, and among them, the young man who was practicing Qigong nodded the most vigorously.
Their talents are considered top-notch in their respective small states. As long as they practice hard, they will soon be able to stand at the top of their small states, but that is their limit in their small states.
They are all frogs in the well, but they know how big the world is. Now there is a rope hanging in front of them, and they don't care even if the other end of the rope is a cruel world.
"What you want is not an opportunity, you are just being shameless!"
Li Lin raised his hand, put his hands behind his back and sneered. His sharp words stunned the monks present, but Li Lin did not intend to give them a chance to react and continued.
"Your body and hair are given by your parents. Your parents gave birth to you and raised you, not for you to work like a slave and waste your life."
"Your master has devoted all his efforts to training you and sending you to the Dao Sect Competition. He hopes that you can go to a better sect so that you can win glory, instead of letting you serve as a servant and waste your talent!"
Every word of Li Lin was like a heavy hammer that made the monks dizzy and dazed. The young and energetic ones clenched their fists, angry but afraid to speak.
"How can a sparrow know the ambition of a swan? You are obviously swans, but why do you look like sparrows? Shame on you!"
"Since you have the courage to leave your comfort zone and head for a wider world, why don't you have the courage to fight for it! Try your best in the Taoist competition and let those high and mighty people see your backbone!"
“We also want fair treatment…”
Li Lin paced back and forth, every word he said was piercing the heart. Finally, one person couldn't hold back and uttered a sound. Unfortunately, it was not a roar of unwillingness, but a helpless sigh.
"Then you've come to the wrong place."
Li Lin raised his finger and pointed in the direction where Li Yanmo's ancient ship was.
"There's your chance!"
The monks all looked over, and after a brief pause, they realized what Li Lin was pointing at. Their faces changed and they waved their hands in panic.
They naturally remembered that someone on the ancient ship during the day had easily cracked the attack of the super sect Hunyuan Sect.
"No...how could we have that..."
Li Lin snorted coldly, "You are all prepared to leave your homeland, so why don't you dare challenge the peak! The ship is right in front of you, but you choose to come here and do something shameful! This is not fate, it is your own choice!"
Faced with Li Lin's sharp words, the monks lowered their heads in shame.
If it is something that can be seen by everyone, why should they come to such a shady place at this time?
"What you are teaching is——"
One person walked out of the team first, turned around and left. As if to show his determination, the man threw the jade token directly on the ground.
After one person took the lead, the others followed suit, dropping the jade tokens and leaving.
After watching the last person leave, Li Lin bent down, picked up all the jade cards, threw them into the storage bag, and waited leisurely.
After about half an hour, no one came. Li Lin couldn't help but frown. The scolding he gave to those monks just now was not just out of anger.
He made sure that no one was spying and no one was coming over before he started to speak in a hurtful manner.
Could it be that the people behind the Mumao Sect had other arrangements, or did they realize that the number of people was not right and therefore changed the plan?
Just as Li Lin was thinking, a man walked over slowly. Seeing that only Li Lin was there, the man was stunned on the spot.
Li Lin also recognized the other person. The person was the cultivator from the Mu Mao Sect who gave him the jade token.
"Why are you alone?"
Li Lin tilted his head in confusion, "Besides me, did you call anyone else?"
The Mumao Sect cultivator cursed inwardly and put his hands behind his back, "Fellow Daoist, you are joking. My Mumao Sect will surely be promoted to a first-class sect. Naturally, there will be countless geniuses who want to come to my Mumao Sect."
"But I see that you and I are destined to be together, so I'm just going to give you a little help."
Li Lin suddenly realized and thanked him repeatedly.
The cultivator from the Mumao Sect cursed in his heart while calling for Li Lin to follow him. Soon, the two of them came to a dead end.
Li Lin flexed his fingers to prevent a sudden murder that could happen at any time.
But Li Lin was still worrying too much. Not only did the Mu Mao Sect cultivator have no intention of attacking suddenly, he also carelessly exposed his back to Li Lin.
After a while of operation, the dead end collapsed downwards and a dry wind blew towards us.
Li Lin's pupils shrank slightly.
That is the land of eight wastelands.
Seeing that Li Lin was motionless, the Mumao Sect monk thought that Li Lin was frightened, and immediately coughed and explained, "Daoyou, this is part of the test. As long as you can survive in this wasteland for eight days, you can become a member of our Mumao Sect."
"Of course, you don't have to worry about any accidents. This test will be escorted by our Taoist Liu throughout the whole process. If there is any danger, he will immediately rescue you."
As if worried that Li Lin would retreat, the cultivator from Mumao Sect emphasized.
"The fact that I can open this place means that this is part of the Dao Sect Competition. What do you have to worry about, fellow Daoist?"
Li Lin suddenly realized what was going on and kicked the other person down.
