I am cultivating immortals in mortal science

Chapter 1873 Trapped in a Trap
In the fairyland, inside the Tianyan Temple.

"Master, a new batch of outer disciples have arrived."

Xuanyuan Wuji, who was wearing a tiger-head robe, bowed and reported to the middle-aged Taoist who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed on the high platform.

"Well, everything remains the same. Inform your junior that this time it is a bottomless vortex."

The middle-aged Taoist priest remained calm, his eyes still tightly closed.

"Master, isn't this bottomless vortex a little too dangerous?"

Xuanyuan Wuji said with some worry upon hearing this.

Their Xuanyuan family finally had a younger generation with such a strong bloodline, and he had high hopes for him!
“With the space magic weapon that I gave him, as long as he doesn’t get too close, there is still a great chance that he can save his life.

Wuji, you have to remember that the demon this time is different. In order to ensure success this time, we have to use more drastic measures.

The way of heaven is clear, we should obey the will of heaven and good fortune will come to us. "

The middle-aged Taoist friend had no intention of revoking the order.

"Disciple understands."

Xuanyuan Wuji no longer hesitated, agreed and fled out of the hall.

In the outer space, on a meteorite.

"These meteorites from outer space are very complex and difficult to collect. I would like to ask what method you used before, Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan?"

Luo Hong immediately nodded in agreement to Xuanyuan Jie's reminder.

“It’s not a complicated method, but you should avoid collecting these meteorites piece by piece. Instead, you should selectively dig out the most valuable parts.

If there are too many precious immortal materials, you have to dig and fill at the same time.

This is the first time for you two to carry out a mission, so I don't think you will be prepared for it, but I have specially prepared some extra things. Here they are."

Xuanyuan Jie said this in a kind manner, then took off two storage bags from his waist and threw them to Luo Hong and Xing Wanhai respectively.

Xing Wanhai took the storage bag and saw that it was full of cheap black iron ore. He immediately understood what Xuanyuan Jie meant.

"Thank you for your care, Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan. We didn't know these rules and didn't prepare anything before coming here."

“You’re welcome. Although the Tianyan Temple is a loose group, we are still fellow disciples after all, so we should support each other.

Next, you two will follow me to hunt for treasure, and all the gains will be divided equally.

As for whether this will happen next time we rest, we can only wait and see."

After saying a polite word, Xuanyuan Jie flew away and said.

"Okay, I was just about to ask Brother Xuanyuan to demonstrate it for me!
Brother Cao, let’s go!”

Xing Wanhai would certainly not refuse Xuanyuan Jie who had experience in treasure hunting. He called out to Luo Hong and flew away.

Immediately, the three of them flew towards a place in the distance where there were many meteorites.

On the way, Xing Wanhai couldn't help but send a message to Luo Hong:

"Fellow Daoist Luo, this guy is quite nice. Should we make friends with him?"

"Friend Xing Dao, have you told others that this is our first time carrying out this mission?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Hong asked an irrelevant question.

"Uh no, you know, normally I don't communicate with these people."

After all, he was colluding with outsiders to steal his own people, so Xing Wanhai usually felt a little guilty.

"We didn't show any signs of unfamiliarity before. How did he determine that this was our first mission?"

Ever since Xuanyuan Jie said that, Luo Hong has been concerned about it, so as soon as Xing Wanhai heard the message, he raised the question.

"Maybe it can be seen from some details. This shouldn't be a big problem, right?"

Xing Wanhai thought about it and felt that although they were just doing some search work, which was very simple, there was still a subtle difference between proficiency and unfamiliarity, which could not be difficult to see if observed carefully.

"Yes, it is possible."

Luo Hong saw that Xing Wanhai felt that he was making a big deal out of nothing, so he didn't discuss it any further.

However, the vigilance in Luo Hong's heart did not decrease because of this speculation, but instead increased to a higher level.

You know, they are facing danger all the time in the outer world. If they don't have other thoughts, how could they focus on others and observe those details.

"There's probably something wrong with this Xuanyuan Jie!"

However, during the following three days of treasure hunting, Xuanyuan Jie did not show any signs of abnormality. Instead, his experience allowed the two to reap great rewards.

Due to the various restrictions of the outer world, the entire treasure hunt process is like gambling on stones.

It’s just that the main cost of gambling on stones is money, while all they have to pay is the cost of time.

“My two fellow Taoists, these are the only rules I have summarized. As long as you find a meteorite with these characteristics, it will most likely contain high-grade magical materials.

The three-day deadline has come, let’s go back and reunite.”

After saying that, Xuanyuan Jie flew away in the direction he came from.

Luo Hong and Xing Wanhai followed closely behind, the former remained silent, full of doubts, while the latter had an excited look on his face with the corners of his mouth clearly upturned.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, this fellow Daoist Xuanyuan is truly worth making friends with. No wonder those two fairies wanted to go treasure hunting with him so much. It turns out there are so many tricks involved!

Haha, I really made a lot of money this time!"

Meteorites from the outer world, unless they are particularly large, are all a piece of meteorite wrapped in a magical material.

Just like the Huanglong Stone before, although it is only a ninth-grade magical material, it may contain up to sixth-grade Huanglong ore mother.

However, because there is no difference in the aura of the two, it is impossible to confirm the presence of the mineral mother through spiritual sense after mixing, let alone its specific location.

If it were possible to take away the entire meteorite that was encountered, it would naturally not be so troublesome, but no one would dare to do so unless they really wanted to die!

In this way, the ability to determine whether there are high-grade magical materials in the meteorite has become an important basis for the cultivators to make a fortune in the outer world.

During these three days, Xuanyuan Jie taught Luo Hong and the other two the basic identification methods.

It is precisely because of this that Xing Wanhai has a greater favorable impression of him.

"I never thought there would be such a cultivator in the Immortal World. This Xuanyuan Jie must be from a big family, otherwise ordinary cultivators would never be so enthusiastic towards a stranger cultivator!"

Fairy Silver couldn't help but sigh at this time.

"Does the fairy also think he is too enthusiastic?"

Although Luo Hong felt that there was something wrong with Xuanyuan Jie, he just couldn't find any key flaws in him, so he wanted to hear other people's opinions.

“Isn’t this obvious?

He must have done this to other people, and it was obvious that he wanted to make friends with you.

However, you are just hanging your heads on your belts now, isn't he afraid of wasting his efforts?"

Fairy Silver also found it a little strange.

"Let's observe for a while longer."

Luo Hong nodded secretly. Since Fairy Silver also felt that there was something wrong with Xuanyuan Jie, he was probably not overthinking it and he must not let his guard down.

The journey back was very smooth. After the team reunited, they began a new round of search.

Because they often have to deal with various crises, everyone feels that every day is extremely long.

But there is no free lunch in the world. If they want to obtain destiny points and accumulate resources for breakthroughs, they can only grit their teeth and persevere.

As a result, after only twenty days, the team leader, Taoist Master Zhang, stopped the search.

"Senior Zhang, why stop now? Is there a great danger ahead?"

Kou Mankai asked nervously.

"Don't worry, the higher-ups just decided to change the search route. We will rest here first and wait for orders before continuing the mission."

The old Taoist in green replied calmly.

After saying that, he fled to another meteorite alone.

No one was surprised by this. After all, every time he took a rest, the Taoist priest in green would find a meteorite to sit on by himself instead of looking for treasures everywhere.

This naturally suited everyone's wishes. Although the old Taoist in green was usually not arrogant, everyone felt somewhat uncomfortable in the presence of a Taiyi senior.

"Don't worry, fellow Taoists. Changing the route is a common occurrence. I don't think we will have to wait long."

Xuanyuan Jie soothed.

"No, it's better to wait a little longer. Song is not in a hurry to complete the task."

"Haha, that's good. I hope the higher-ups can discuss this for a longer period of time. It would be best if we could drag it out over the remaining few days."

"It's better for you to avoid doing this kind of thing, fellow Daoist Meimengchi, haha."

Just as everyone was talking and laughing, the old Taoist in green suddenly spoke a message, which immediately made everyone silent.

"Xuanyuan Jie, come here for a moment. I have something to discuss with you."

"Please take a seat, fellow Taoists. I will go over and see what is going on."

After bowing to everyone, Xuanyuan Jie fled towards a meteorite in the distance.

"Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan seems to be highly valued by Senior Zhang."

Seeing Fei Yuan, Luo Hong deliberately brought up the topic.

"Of course. After all, Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan has a wealth of experience. If I were to lead the team, I would consult him on everything."

The blue-haired female cultivator immediately said as a matter of course.

"The main reason is that this is not the first time that Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan has carried out a mission. One of Song's good friends has teamed up with him before."

"Hey, is it Brother Song too? My friend has also teamed up with him before, could it be the same group of people?"

"What a coincidence? Song's good friend is called Lu Fanxiu. Fairy Liu, have you ever heard of him?"

"No, I don't think they are a team."

Hearing this discussion, Luo Hong couldn't help but frown slightly.

You know, this outer space mission must have come after he collected the Guanghan secret treasure, which is more than two hundred years ago.

Each mission lasts for a hundred years, so if Xuanyuan Jie has teamed up with two teams of monks, then he has been carrying out missions for more than two hundred years in a row, right?
No, it is not necessary to wait until the mission deadline to regroup. Another reason is more likely!
"I wonder how your friends' gains were in the end. I think they must have made a lot of money, right?"

Luo Hong asked with pretended curiosity.

However, as soon as he said this, the faces of the two people who had just spoken could not help but darken.

"It's not that easy. My good friend finally died in the Outer Realm and didn't come back alive."

"That's right, everyone, don't let your guard down just because you haven't encountered any major danger.

My good friend fell into the vortex of the Broken World!"

“They all fell.”

Xing Wanhai's face changed immediately and he felt worried about the future.

"The dead cannot be resurrected, so please accept my condolences, fellow Taoists.

However, do you know the origins of Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan?

To be honest, Cao has always felt that the surname Xuanyuan is very familiar. "

Luo Hong asked again immediately. He had been recalling this familiar feeling these days, but there was still no result.

"Fellow Daoist Cao, this is probably just your illusion. I asked Brother Xuanyuan, and he is an ascended cultivator from the lower realm. He has no followers in the fairy world."

Another female cultivator replied casually.

But she didn't know that after Luo Hong heard this, a past event immediately emerged in his soul.

That was before he ascended, when he participated in the Dragon Island Conference.

While waiting for the conference to begin, some familiar Mahayana monks gathered together to discuss who was most likely to win this conference.

"Ancestor Wu Meng, your words are too much. How can a mere human Mahayana be compared with those fellow Taoists?"

“You old ghosts, don’t disbelieve it, but the Xuanyuan clan is the bloodline of the ancient emperor. They are favored by the way of heaven and blessed by luck. Their people have always had great magical powers and can turn misfortune into fortune. They are extremely powerful!”

"Luck and the like are all illusory things, Wu Meng Old Monster, you actually still believe in this!"

"Humph, if you don't believe me, forget it. When you encounter it, you will know how to regret it!"

Because these Mahayana monks from different races talked about the human race, Luo Hong listened carefully.

But at that time, Luo Hong already knew that practicing the Taichu Law would be despised by the Heavenly Dao, and he knew that he would definitely not get along with the people of the Xuanyuan lineage, so he immediately gave up the idea of ​​contacting them.

Also, because he did not meet the Xuanyuan people in the trial later, his memory of it is quite vague until now.

It was only until someone mentioned the word "underworld" that he remembered it.

"What a favored one by heaven! How could such a talent be just an outer disciple of Tianyan Temple? I absolutely don't believe it!"

Tianyan Temple is all about following the will of heaven, which is in perfect harmony with the bloodline talents of the Xuanyuan clan.

People like Xuanyuan Jie should be the focus of their training.

But now, the other party has been staying in the dangerous outer world all year round, and his purpose is already obvious!
"This is a trap! It's really well calculated!"

At this moment, Luo Hong has realized that this is a trap set by the master of Tianyan Temple with the help of the immortal world's way of heaven.

The random teleportation of the star gate is controlled by luck, so as long as a son of luck is waiting in the outer world of heaven, an existence like Luo Hong who is hated by the way of heaven will definitely be teleported to his vicinity.

This is an invisible beacon of fortune. Except for the person who planned it, no one else can detect it!
Combined with the two friends who had already passed away, it was not difficult for Luo Hong to infer that Tianyan Temple would rather kill the wrong person than let him go.

"So, how are they going to proceed?

No, a Taiyi cultivator alone cannot guarantee that he can defeat a Taichu demon like me, so."

Thinking of this, Luo Hong immediately spread out his spiritual sense and explored the surrounding situation.

"The force of space has a subtle tendency to condense. Could it be a bottomless vortex?!"

Luo Hong was shocked and wanted to leave the place immediately.

But as soon as his buttocks were raised an inch, a thought flashed through his mind:
"If I escape now, it would be like confessing myself!
Although Tianyan Temple does not know my true identity, and Fortunately Wanhai can be silenced, they must know that I am from the Black Mountain Fairyland.

Damn it, whether I escape or not is all in the other party's calculations!"
