Chapter 160
“But you guys…”
Before the Pavilion Master could finish his words, a rebuttal came from the other side, as if angry and embarrassed.
"I have nothing to do with him. It was just a mistake that Tiandao made when he was taking a nap!"
Eleven originally thought that what the other person said was just a joke between friends. After all, the Pavilion Master looked quite calm.
——But when friends are joking with each other, their spiritual pressure will suddenly explode!
Eleven had originally pricked up her ears, ready to eat the melon, but in the blink of an eye she felt a huge pressure spreading out from the water mirror, which made her eyes widen instantly, and then she felt suffocated.
After waiting for a long time for the pressure to be withdrawn, Eleven's vision was already beginning to fade.
"Ha ha."
Eleven was breathing heavily, and if it weren't for the wall blocking her way, she would have sat down on the ground.
She lowered her head and tried to calm her heartbeat as much as possible, but her heart was filled with panic.
How powerful must this strength be to be able to suffocate her even through the water mirror?
But if she is like this, then Pavilion Master!
When Eleven thought of this, she could no longer stand. She raised her head abruptly, wanting to see if her Pavilion Master was okay. However...
But she only saw her own Pavilion Master sitting in the chair as if nothing had happened, with no change in his expression.
"When did the Pavilion Master become so powerful..."
Eleven thought doubtfully.
"Eleven, are you hurt?"
After hearing what the Pavilion Master said, Eleven put aside his doubts and quickly checked his body, then spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Replying to Pavilion Master, no."
After hearing Eleven's words, the blind Pavilion Master with a black veil on his eyes nodded, then turned to Shui Jing and said.
"I'm telling the truth, why is Xingji so angry?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Eleven subconsciously wanted to rush up and cover his own Pavilion Master's mouth. Although Eleven couldn't see the face of the other person, it would be strange if the other person didn't get angry after hearing such provocative words.
The situation just now has already proved that the opponent really has a bad temper!
But there's nothing you can do about these words, no matter how good your temper is.
Eleven was nervously preparing for the second wave of suffocation, but this time the opponent was not angry.
Or the other party is too angry.
"I shouldn't have mentioned these things to you. I know that if no one was watching your mouth, you would have been beaten to death. And I have such a bad temper..."
The voice of the person on the other end of the line became smaller and smaller, and Eleven could hardly hear it.
After discovering that her Pavilion Master was not in danger of life, Eleven first breathed a sigh of relief, but then doubts overwhelmed her.
What was the relationship between the people on the other side and the young master? They looked very familiar, but Eleven had never seen the young master contact him in all these years.
But if the young master wanted to avoid her, it would be easy. Besides, is it true that Tianwen Pavilion dismisses a group of disciples every twenty years just because, apart from the Pavilion Master, no one in Tianwen Pavilion can learn astrology...
A wave of questions flashed through Eleven's mind along with the intimate conversation between the Pavilion Master and that person.
As the topic between them gradually deepened, cold sweat slowly broke out on Eleven's forehead.
This person knows too many secrets of the cultivation world, and it seems that it was his own Pavilion Master who told him!
——What exactly does the Pavilion Master want to do?
"...So you're going to have a meeting with those so-called high-ranking officials in the cultivation world soon? What's the matter this time? After the last prophecy, didn't they plan to use elixirs to control Country A?"
Eleven listened to the person opposite him directly mentioning the current secrets of the cultivation world, bit his lip, and looked into his own Pavilion Master's eyes, all of which were full of disbelief.
She really didn't know whether she should be glad or hate that the Pavilion Master was blind and couldn't see the expression of disbelief on her face.
But the Pavilion Master didn't care about him. He just raised his fingers and after a dazzling flutter of his fingers, the white-haired Pavilion Master with a black eye veil spoke calmly.
"The elixir has been discovered, it's time to fix the problem."
"Heh, it seems that we are all in agreement that the top brass are all useless. The same is true for our front line. The emergency military information came ten days earlier. The food and fodder for the army for ten days is an astronomical figure, but everyone can only swallow this."
The person on the other side said with a disdainful voice.
"Everyone in the world does this, just for their own interests." The Pavilion Master still said calmly, but from the way he stood up, it seemed that he had already planned to end this conversation.
Eleven finally breathed a sigh of relief and was about to lead his Pavilion Master out when he heard a sentence coming from the water mirror.
"So I told you, a fool, not to speak out the true prophecy. Now it's all good. It's just a false prophecy, but it allows both sides to communicate."
Eleven froze in disbelief.
The prophecy is false???
Is the prophecy that the mortal world is about to invade the cultivation world, which is regarded as a treasure by the entire cultivation world, false?
Eleven still remembers the day when the Pavilion Master made the prediction. The sky was covered with dark clouds, as if a thunderbolt would strike at the next second. The Pavilion Master was also quite weak after making the prediction.
At that time, everyone felt sorry for the Pavilion Master. He must have paid a lot for the world of cultivation.
Eleven also thought that it was the punishment from the Pavilion Master for leaking the secret, but now it seems...
Isn't this a punishment from Heaven for modifying the prophecy?
Eleven thought about it and finally calmed down, and a question appeared in her mind.
——Then what is the true prophecy?
At this time the Pavilion Master also said.
“But there will be a gap.”
The person on the other side chuckled as if he heard something funny.
"Will there be no gap between them if you tell them? The world of cultivation and the world of mortals are two different worlds. That prophecy will only make you a public enemy."
The person on the other side said in a calm tone: "Ajue, you are always so naive."
"It's so innocent and lovely, as if everyone in the world could be saved."
Eleven felt his mind getting more confused as he listened. What kind of prophecy could make his own Pavilion Master a public enemy? And why did the person opposite him say that the Pavilion Master was "always"?
What role did this person play in the Pavilion Master’s past experiences?
As Eleven was thinking about it, he also saw his Pavilion Master’s body stiffen.
It was obvious that the Pavilion Master was not untouched by what had just been said.
Eleven was just about to say a few words to comfort the Pavilion Master, but what Eleven didn't expect was that his own Pavilion Master didn't need comfort.
"Xingji, I'm not naive, I just see things differently." The Pavilion Master responded, and before the other party could respond, he added another sentence.
"Let me ask you, can the plot that happened ten days earlier cause your husband's wedding to be postponed temporarily?"
"Han Jue, if you say another word, I will really catch you and marry you!"
——On the contrary, he would take revenge on the spot if there was any grudge.
*
Eleven left the Pavilion Master's room in fear.
She really didn't know how powerful the opponent was that he could turn the furnishings in the entire room into powder through the water mirror.
However, compared to that person, Eleven still felt that his own Pavilion Master was more terrifying.
——After provoking the other party, the Pavilion Master actually said four words while watching the furnishings in the room shaking.
"I see."
It was the first time that Eleven felt that these four words had such a destructive power. It was under the critical hit of these four words that all the decorations on the opposite side were turned into dust.
Finally, he turned off the water mirror without saying a word.
Eleven led the Pavilion Master towards the meeting room in a daze.
By the time she came to her senses, all the previous questions came to her mind.
Who is the person opposite the Pavilion Master? Why didn't the Pavilion Master hide it from me? What is the true prophecy? Why did the Pavilion Master make a false prophecy...
Thousands of thoughts swirled in Eleven's mind, making her expression quite conflicted and complicated, and she walked somewhat absent-mindedly.
The Pavilion Master behind Eleven seemed to have noticed her emotions.
"Eleven, are you hurt?"
Hearing the question from his own Pavilion Master, Eleven first shook his head subconsciously, then remembered that his own Pavilion Master couldn't see, so he responded.
"The Pavilion Master did not..."
Eleven was about to ask the Pavilion Master what had just happened.
However, when she turned around, she saw her own Pavilion Master took out a bottle of pills from somewhere and put it into her hand.
"Rejuvenation Pill."
The Pavilion Master said this, then turned and walked into the hall, leaving Eleven staring blankly at the medicine bottle in his hand.
Then Eleven slapped himself on the cheek.
How cruel must she be to have the thought of betraying her own leader just now?
Little did he know that the Pavilion Master, who had already stepped into the hall, was speaking in his mind.
[——It’s just a bottle of elixir, why didn’t she tell on me? ]
*
[Host, you still underestimated the average salary of Tianwen Pavilion. It is very attractive in the entire cultivation world. Moreover, there is no concept of protecting the cultivation world among the cultivation world. It is good enough that they are not betrayed by the cultivation world.]
777 seemed helpless but actually said it with a gloating look.
[My host, who I have estimated without a doubt, has failed in terms of human nature this time. I didn't expect that there are still people who are truly kind to you. ]
Gu Youxing sighed for the first time. He shouldn't have handed over the bottle of pills just now.
777 listened to the host's complaints and smiled disdainfully. The host was just talking.
Gu Youxing was still thinking without knowing anything. God knows he was just afraid that he might really hurt someone when he released his spiritual pressure. If he couldn't withstand the soul search of those powerful men, he would be exposed again.
...But judging from the current situation, the flaw has to be exposed.
But to whom did this flaw come to light?
Gu Youxing walked to his seat in a haughty manner under the shell of "Han Jue" and sat down. Relying on his current blind personality, he stared at the faces of the people present one by one to see who he should reveal his true colors to.
On the surface, after the leader of Tianwen Pavilion took his seat, he quietly became his own mascot.
In the entire cultivation world, only the Pavilion Master of Tianwen Pavilion has the ability to predict the future. He must appear here, but everyone present is vaguely afraid of him.
After all, God knows how much Han Jue can see.
Therefore, the positioning of Han Jue as the mascot was determined. In this event, Han Jue did not participate in anything else except the prophecy.
——Including the next cultivation world, which plans to use fake foundation-building pills to control the so-called elite class in country A.
No, it can't be considered control.
"...We are just thinking of those ordinary mortals without talent and giving them a way to success."
Master Qiao said with a smile.
The pseudo foundation-building pill was initially considered a poison. After all, once a person used the pseudo foundation-building pill to build his foundation, unless he destroyed his own foundation and started practicing on another path, he would never make any progress in the foundation-building stage in his entire life.
But the advantage of the pseudo foundation-building pill is that even if the person is a mortal with no foundation, he can be pulled to the initial stage of foundation-building.
Therefore, gradually, the evaluation of the pseudo foundation-building pill began to become neutral.
——Until the cultivators discovered that the cultivation level in the pseudo foundation-building pill was actually obtained by forcibly damaging the body's foundation.
This caused the pseudo foundation-building pill to be regarded as poison again in the cultivation world, and no cultivator was willing to submit to others.
But now... just a mortal.
With the old fox's smile, the matter was settled.
The situation in the entire venue was gathered in a pair of eyes. The eyes hidden under the black veil scanned the entire venue and finally looked at the young man in a black bamboo robe.
Lin Zhu was sitting in his seat without saying a word.
There were several empty seats next to him.
Those who had gone to the mortal world with him before received the same treatment as him.
This is the treatment they have been receiving since they went to the mortal world and were infected with the mortal virus.
The cultivation world had no idea about viruses and thought they were poison. But after hearing that they could be contagious, everyone backed away from them.
However, Lin Zhu didn't care much about these things. After a while, when everyone had forgotten about this matter, he would be able to resume his normal life.
What he cared about was the prediction made by the previous master of Tianwen Pavilion.
Although everyone in the cultivation world is saying that the prediction made by the leader of Tianwen Pavilion is true, Lin Zhu always feels that it is too much of a coincidence.
When the cultivation world urgently needed a reason to intervene in Country A, this prophecy appeared that could serve as just that and also occupy the moral high ground.
The coincidence seemed tailor-made.
——It was just like the comments he received by coincidence when his parents wanted to kick him out of the house.
Lin Zhu looked at the 'blind' Tianwen Pavilion Master and bit the tender flesh in his mouth fiercely.
'No, don't be reckless.'
Lin Zhu thought while holding the space bag in his hand.
"Let's go to the mortal world first."
*
"So this is what they delivered?"
Ruan Luo was wearing a black shirt, sitting on the sofa in his home, holding a transparent bottle in his hand.
And there was a pill in the bottle.
"A pseudo foundation-building pill can raise a mortal's strength to the foundation-building stage, but they will only be able to stay at the foundation-building stage and will not make any progress."
Gao Wenjun sat far away from the pills and seemed to be really afraid of these things.
He was indeed afraid.
When he first got it, he felt that the pill exuded the fragrance of herbs. When he heard that it could allow him to reach the host directly, Gao Wenjun's eyes lit up.
Then he heard the last sentence.
“…I have been stuck in the foundation-building stage all my life and have not made any progress.”
——Gao Wenjun almost returned all the fake foundation-building pills to the person he had handed over.
Although he has the confidence to destroy his foundation and start practicing again, he is already thirty-one years old. There are many people in the cultivation world who have reached the Golden Core stage at his age, but he is only at the fifth level of Qi training.
Even in the world of cultivation, there are also more than 30 people who are only in the Qi training stage, but Gao Wenjun will not be satisfied with this.
This is also one of the reasons why he cooperates with the cultivation world. He does not want to be trapped in country A for his entire life.
He wanted to see a bigger world, he wanted to go to the world of cultivation to improve his skills and even - ascend!
So when Gao Wenjun saw this kind of elixir, he stayed as far away from it as possible.
If it wasn't for the purpose of obtaining more resources and connections, Gao Wenjun would never have allowed this kind of elixir to come in.
However, although this kind of pill looks like a lot, there are only 20 pills, and it is restricted to young and middle-aged people. After all, the efficacy of this pseudo-foundation-building pill is very strong, and the elderly are afraid that they may not be able to hold on.
Only then did Gao Wenjun reluctantly nod in agreement.
However, unlike Gao Wenjun who regarded this fake foundation-building pill as a scourge, Ruan Luo looked at this fake foundation-building pill with desire in his eyes.
However, before putting it into his mouth, Ruan Luo still asked cautiously.
"This fake foundation-building pill should have been tested, right?"
Gao Wenjun nodded, looked at the foundation-building pill and said, "Don't worry, I've tested it, and it doesn't contain any human blood, or even any human blood residue. You know, my laboratory can even find traces of human blood that was burned hundreds of years ago."
Ruan Luo heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this.
Gao Wenjun raised his eyebrows when he saw Ruan Luo's expression and asked, "What have you thought of? Will it trigger the chip?"
Ruan Luo narrowed his eyes. His almond-shaped eyes, which originally looked round and cute, seemed a little gloomy when he looked at people with his eyes narrowed.
It was like a venomous snake whose rabbit skin had finally been peeled off.
Her delicate appearance was completely different from the first time they met, but Gao Wenjun felt that Ruan Luo was more pleasing to the eye.
Maybe it was because they saw the mutual sympathy among their own kind?
However, Ruan Luo's role for Gao Wenjun is not just a spider web that spreads the goods. The knowledge about the world of cultivation in Ruan Luo's mind is also what he needs.
Although it is not known what kind of deal Ruan Luo made with those vampires, which made those vampires willing to rescue the weak from the Special Management Bureau and offer some resources so that Ruan Luo can continue to appear in front of the public.
But Gao Wenjun knew that the content of the transaction must include information from the world of cultivation.
——After all, when everyone called those cultivators "ancient martial arts masters with special abilities", only Ruan Luo blurted out the three words "cultivator" the first time he met them.
"There are rumors that after some fake foundation-building pills are dripped into the blood of cultivators, they will submit to the owner of the blood."
Ruan Luo said bluntly, still playing with the transparent bottle in his hand and looking quite conflicted.
"But you should know better than me whether the keyword will be triggered or not - Mr. Gao, who was able to confuse the chip with just a talisman."
Gao Wenjun didn't care about the sarcasm in Ruan Luo's words. He just smiled, raised his glass towards Ruan Luo, drank the wine in the glass before speaking.
"But this is the first time I know that there is such a thing as a fake foundation-building pill. If it is used to harm people, as long as you don't know, it will definitely harm everyone."
As Gao Wenjun spoke, he looked at the Foundation Establishment Pill with a long-lost fear in his eyes.
"That's still considered good. At least you have the cultivation base of the Foundation Establishment Stage. Gu poison, blood poison, and even poison that penetrates into spiritual energy are all difficult to cure. Of course, there are many more people who cannot escape in time during a battle between powerful beings and are slapped to death."
As Ruan Luo spoke, he looked at the pseudo foundation-building pill in front of him and did not notice that Gao Wenjun was already sitting upright. In the end, he put the transparent bottle in his hand into his arms.
"This bottle will be on my account. The rest will be auctioned off and those 'cultists' will pay for them."
As Ruan Luo spoke, his collar was torn open due to the heat, and a golden statue was hanging around his neck.
After the last lesson, Ruan Luo did not build a sales network in the normal way this time, but adopted an uncommon but most effective method.
religion.
Thanks to the current environment in country A, various religions have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and the authorities don’t know which one to strike first.
He also specially carved a statue of a god, which was a man in a robe but without a face.
The explanation is that gods have no appearance, but only Ruan Luo knows that this is simply because he is too lazy to imagine what this so-called god looks like.
However, Gao Wenjun said directly: "No need, put it on my account as a reward for your information."
He is no less generous than others in treating his subordinates.
Ruan Luo did not act pretentiously and nodded in agreement without saying a word. After all, this pseudo foundation-building pill was not cheap, and people in the world of cultivation were never soft on the price they asked for.
"...But, aren't you really worried about being stuck in the foundation-building stage and not making any progress?"
When Gao Wenjun saw Ruan Luo accept it, he hesitated for a moment and still asked.
Ruan Luo said bluntly: "It's as if I can build a spiritual root if I practice. I've done tests before and I don't have any spiritual roots."
"Moreover, there is the Golden Core Stage above the Foundation Establishment Stage. When advancing from the Foundation Establishment Stage to the Golden Core Stage, one will be struck by lightning. Many cultivators have perished at this stage."
Gao Wenjun nodded and looked at Ruan Luo with deep eyes.
Ruan Luo may not know that just this one sentence can save Gao Wenjun from taking so many detours. He can't get any information from the cultivation world now. Every time someone comes over, he is like a mute. Apart from explaining the efficacy of the goods this time, he doesn't say a word the whole time.
He couldn't even get any information out of it.
At this time, Ruan Luo's existence is extremely precious.
"...When I gain a foothold in the cultivation world, I will take you with me. I will then help you search for techniques. I'm sure you will find a way to practice. Hasn't Feng Chao across the street also started practicing?"
Ruan Luo looked at Gao Wenjun, who was leaning on the sofa with his shirt unbuttoned, and said with a sarcastic curl of his lips.
"Mr. Gao, don't try to coax me with the same attitude you use to coax your mistress. Just leave me some more resources before you leave."
Ruan Luo waved his hand and said.
Gao Wenjun looked at the disbelieving look on Ruan Luo's face and smiled himself.
In fact, what he just said was true.
——If he doesn’t bring such an encyclopedia into the world of cultivation, and if he gets cheated, where can he seek justice?
However, Gao Wenjun did not say this out loud, as it would be bad if it aroused Ruan Luo's vigilance.
He was about to leave with a shocked Lao Zhang when he heard Ruan Luo say something as if he remembered something.
"Oh, there is one more thing. After entering the world of cultivation, try to find a female master instead of a male master. If she wants you to call her master, be careful. Don't accept any disciples, especially male disciples."
Gao Wenjun was bewildered by these words.
“Why…?”
Ruan Luo looked meaningfully at the straight man in front of him and said.
"It's just a small law."
After all, according to the previous summary of laws, anyone who becomes a master or calls someone master.
It's quite dangerous ahead.
