Immortal Road.

Chapter 561: Jiuyao Pond Forest, Many Friends, Few Helpers

The two chased each other and escaped.

The leader of the Rong Sect even tried to pull the strings in the middle, wanting to fly a kite and fight with Lin Shan.

This tactic of fighting and retreating, exhausting the opponent and turning defeat into victory has been used many times in his fighting career from childhood to adulthood!

However, after the opponent took out a top-notch bow, he learned his lesson after being shot by a few arrows and ran away without hesitation.

But Lin Shan flew faster than him, so he could catch up after running for a while.

"Who exactly is this Kun Cult leader? Where did he come from?"

Now he had no choice but to burn his blood and essence to activate blood escape!
In the world of magic cultivation, blood escape can be said to be something that everyone can do, but it is not as strange as the legends say.

Something like '[it turned into a line of blood and disappeared in an instant]', or '[only a cloud of blood mist remained in place]'.

Most of them were fabricated by people who wrote stories about cultivation and strange things, and they themselves had never seen such magical powers.

It is just the burning of essence and blood, creating a circle of blood-colored film around the body, which is equivalent to fuel to boost flight.

It’s just a spell, the threshold is extremely low, and it has not yet reached the level of minor supernatural powers, but it has to be said that it is useful!

Great value for money!
All practitioners of the magic path will learn it, and it is a must-have for home, travel, and murder and arson.

If one really wants to be able to appear and disappear mysteriously without leaving any trace, that kind of blood-escaping ability is not something that ordinary people can possess.

However, with ordinary blood escape techniques, as long as you are not surrounded and beaten, it is basically no problem to escape when facing people of the same level as you.

It is nothing more than burning your essence and blood and damaging your own cultivation.

My life is almost gone, so it’s no big deal to lose some of my cultivation!
If it is a righteous monk, it might be very troublesome.

Loss of foundation and subsequent recovery will take a long time to adjust.

But the demonic monks made their living by plundering, and things like cultivation and blood essence can be replenished from others the next day, so it's not a big deal.

Only then did Lin Shan realize that the evil people were much harder to kill than the righteous monks!

Because firstly, they are very alert, and secondly, they are good at escaping. If you don’t have a trick to escape, it would be really hard to chase them!

Fortunately, he is a member of the Wind and Thunder Department, and is good at speed. In terms of flying speed alone, few people of the same level can match him.

It is true that the leader of the Rong Cult knows the blood escape technique, but he will not be able to do it for long.

Then let’s see who can outlast whom!

Lin Shan took Luanchun and the other two with him and chased after them, following closely behind the leader of the Rong Sect.

Every time the leader of the Rong Sect felt that he was about to be caught up, he had to burn his blood and energy to rush for his life, and the two of them would chase and escape for most of the day!

Just when Lin Shan was wondering where this person was going, the leader of the Rong Sect suddenly landed.

Below is a dilapidated Taoist temple.

The pine forests around here grow wildly without any human trimming, and are overgrown with weeds and scattered with broken tiles.

An unkempt old Taoist priest was enjoying the cool air in the yard.

"Brother Xiang, save me quickly!"

The leader of the Rong sect suddenly jumped into the yard, raising a cloud of dust and scaring the old Taoist who was enjoying the cool air!
Why are there all kinds of people these days?

You came to my house while using your blood escape function?

"Brother Rong, what are you doing?"

"It's too late to say anything. There's a gangster chasing me. Please lend a hand!"

The old Taoist felt a little itchy in his throat.

歹徒？

You yourself are the leader of a cult or gang, and yet you call others criminals!

I want to see what kind of criminal can chase you so miserably!

"Hahahaha, Rong Cult leader, you can run, keep running! Why don't you run anymore?"

There was a loud laugh outside, and a man in a black robe walked leisurely into the Taoist temple.

"Who are you? Don't you know that this is the territory of my Kuyun Temple? The leader of the Rong Sect is my close friend. If you know what's good for you, please leave immediately."

"Ok?"

The man in black robe turned his head, and three balls of evil spirit light were condensed in his hands, and after a long period of accumulating power, their luster became even deeper.

The birds, fish and insects in the surrounding woods had no time to react before their souls were all sucked in, and they died in large numbers in an instant!

The mountains and wilderness suddenly became silent!

Sweep away!

The old Taoist originally wanted to help someone and earn a favor.

Suddenly seeing the person coming so ferocious, he used his magical power and all the dense transparent souls around were stirred in, like a human-shaped whirlpool.

Even I am losing my balance and about to be taken away by the other party!
Where did this ruthless demon come from?

"Uh ah. Hehe, well, the leader of the Rong Sect and I are not that familiar with each other."

The leader of the Rong Cult was stunned: "???"

Lin Shan looked suspicious: "Is it really so?"

The old Taoist said sternly: "Indeed!"

The leader of the Rong sect spat inwardly, then turned and left without hesitation.

Lin Shan suddenly stood up and followed, with two other people hanging around outside the temple.

A gust of fallen leaves blew in the temple, just like the wind, awakening the old Taoist's spiritual heart which had been dormant for a long time.

Several more hours passed.

The leader of the Rong sect looked exhausted, and after traveling for thousands of miles, he turned into a canyon.

The valley is shrouded in clouds and mist, and is filled with heavy haze.

"Brother Qi! Rong has come to bother you specially, please open the door and see me!"

The clouds opened up a hole, and the inside was bottomless.

"Eh? Brother Rong is a very busy man, how come you have time to visit me?"

The leader of the Rong Sect breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this and was about to stand up and fly in.

Lin Shan followed behind and glanced at the surrounding terrain with some surprise. Seeing that this guy was trying to take refuge again, he also pretended to fly in.

The people inside suddenly lost their composure!

"Brother Rong, who is that person behind you? Why does he look sneaky?"

"Brother Qi, don't worry, that's me."

He originally wanted to deal with it vaguely, find a way to fool the person inside and then drag him into the water.

But Linshan has taken the lead in exporting.

"The leader of the Rong Cult has offended me. What is your relationship with him? How dare you come forward to protect him?"

When the people inside heard this, they immediately became flustered and closed their cloud and mist formation again.

Good guy!
I thought you came here for a sincere visit, but it turns out you came here with your enemy?
You should deal with your own enemies yourself, why drag me into it?
"Well, you guys continue. I'm not familiar with him and it has nothing to do with me!"

The leader of the Rong sect had no choice but to turn around and leave when he saw that the trap had failed.

Lin Shan didn't even look at this place, he stood up and continued to follow.

We walked until three o'clock in the morning.

On top of the mountains, under the full moon.

A one-eyed man sat cross-legged on the edge of the cliff with his hands in front of his kidneys. Dark demonic energy surrounded him. The cold moonlight shone down on him, casting a layer of silver light.

This person is absorbing the moonlight and practicing magic.

A flash of blood appeared in the distance, forming a long red line, heading straight towards this place!

"Ok?"

The one-eyed man had a sharp mind and soon noticed something was wrong. He immediately stopped and looked for the source.

I discovered that behind the blood-red rainbow, there was a blue tail line.

"Brother Lu, I've been looking for you for a long time, and finally I met you here!"

"Are you Brother Rong? How did you become like this?" The leader of the Rong sect had lost too much blood at this time. His face was pale and listless, and his eyes could not hide the panic.

He called for help while popping pills into his mouth. The blood-colored tonic pills seemed to be quite effective. After swallowing one, his skin became slightly rosy.

Lin Shan followed behind him from a distance.

His magical powers were so powerful that he could chase for a whole day without feeling anything.

What is more surprising is that the leader of the Rong Sect seems to have good relationships with people in the demon world. How could he find so many acquaintances?
in the dark.

The one-eyed man stood on the top of the mountain, possessed by the moonlight, ready for battle.

His long hair was dancing wantonly, his robes fluttered in the wind, and his demonic aura was rushing into the night. He looked much more difficult to deal with than the previous two!
Judging from the starry sky, he must be a master of magic who never appears in the world!

"Who are you? This is me."

"roll!"

"Okay~"

The one-eyed man jumped off the cliff without saying a word and disappeared into the bottomless ravine, not even practicing his magic skills anymore.

Rong Sect leader: “.”

You are not like this on weekdays!

You all come to me to curry my favor, just to get a friendly price when buying the World of Warcraft group, but I have given you discounts for all of them!

To be honest, he often broke bones just to make friends.

Multiple friends have multiple roads.

With more friends, he has more information channels, which makes it easier for him to collect more blood for his master.

And he has recognized more than one 'master'. The Demon Dog Lord has many souls. Anyway, he can cast a wide net and invest widely, so whoever rises up in the future can lead him.

He just met a newly awakened person these two days, giving him one more choice.

But people in the evil world are more realistic. They can share the good times but not the bad times.

I can take advantage of you, but you want me to work for you or fight with others.

No!

Although this one-eyed man looks good and is quite ferocious in the small circle of the Jindan stage, he becomes cowardly and dares not say a word when the critical moment comes!

"Damn it, no one is reliable."

The leader of the Rong Cult gnashed his teeth, feeling that all his good intentions had been in vain, and swore that he would never give any benefits to this group of people again after returning!
Lin Shan also did not expect that the Demonic Path would be so straightforward!

If he was being hunted in the State of Lu, even if the people of the Lujiang League did not dare to help, they would more or less try to stop the fight, and Master Yang's Yang family would probably also lend a helping hand.

"Why, you've lived so many years without a friend you can trust?"

He was chasing and asking questions from behind, while the leader of the Rong Sect was running and returning in front.

"At this stage, who would trust you? You are making me feel the same way!"

"How could there be none? Our Kun Cult has been established for so many years, so we still have two and a half friends!"

Lin Shan did not lie. Among those who saved his life, Lin Fan and Brother Ji counted as two, and the Black Skull Demon Lord counted as half because he was bound by a contract.

The leader of the Rong sect could no longer hold back, so he just kept silent in the wind, gritted his teeth, turned around, and started searching again.

He still doesn’t believe it!

When there is an interaction of interests, there will always be people willing to make a move in order to have long-term cooperation with him!
Noon the next day.

He believed it.
He overestimated his own worth.

There are people in the magic world who are willing to take action, but it also depends on whether it is worth it.

After helping you, are the risks I take offset by the continuous benefits I can get, and will it be further profitable?
In the righteous way, people talk about "friendship", but in the evil way, people don't talk about it much.

The leader of the Rong Sect has a wide circle of friends and controls the wholesale market of magic beasts in the world of cultivation, but his usual selfishness is ingrained in his bones.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have secretly replaced the gold-level magic cubs while fishing with the deputy warden of the Vermillion Bird Prison and the second elder of the Changli Demon Village and used them for his own purposes.

And the occasion is also important.

His 'clients' were sitting at home when suddenly the supplier came with the creditors, and everyone was confused.

Lin Shan was greatly impressed during the pursuit, and encountered five waves of forces!
Most people in the magic world are loners.

However, there were still two waves of sects, but they all rejected the leader of the Rong Sect as they did not want to be involved in the vortex of right and wrong.

No one wants to offend a Jindan-stage cultivator.

Unless there is huge profit to be made, you are not the only one who wholesales World of Warcraft, so I will just find someone else to cooperate with.

The leader of the Rong sect saw that his strategy of diverting the blame to others was not working, and most of his good friends had left, and no one was reliable anymore.

He really didn't have much time to waste, and his blood loss was very serious.

If I continue like this, my cultivation level might loosen and fall!

He had no choice but to return to his own sect.

Jiuyao Peak, Rong Sect.

This area belongs to the southeastern region of the Chu State. It is surrounded by rich spiritual energy and is where many aristocratic sects of cultivation gather.

Other areas may maintain a certain buffer zone with each other due to territory division and will not be too close to others.

But here, because the spiritual veins are crowded together, everyone has no choice but to live under the same roof.

Jiuyao Peak, there are a total of nine sacred mountains, forming a circle to protect the surrounding area.

In the middle is a large area of ​​'Magic Bamboo Secret Realm'.

The area covers thousands of miles!
Each sacred mountain is three hundred miles apart, so you can see them if you look up or down.

There are also nine different forces above it, occupying their own sacred mountains and running different sects.

Rongjiao is just one of them.

Its location is the sixth of the Nine Stars, Jin Yao Peak.

Logically speaking, this group of sacred mountains should be taken over by major sects, and it is very suitable for arranging various Taoist veins to gather together.

It shouldn't be the turn of a bunch of individual investors to rule the country and act independently for so many years.

Back to the past.

This is indeed one of the top sects’ dojo.

Jiuyou Gate, a branch of Jiuyao Peak.

In the southeast of Chu State is the headquarters of Jiuyou Sect, and there are many such branches.

It’s a pity that in the siege feast many years ago, the Jiuyou Sect was destroyed by the oppression of half of the cultivation world, and only the young master of Jiuyou fled to the State of Jin.

A brutal battle also took place at the Jiuyao Peak branch!

The secret realm of the Demonic Bamboo guarded by Lingshan was broken in that battle, and the demonic fire burned for a full ninety-nine and eighty-one days!
Completely burned to ashes!
Afterwards, no matter how the monks turned the soil, planted, or made rain or transplanted crops, they were unable to restore the tree to its original state.

That fire was so fierce.

Destroy a natural secret place.

It is said that the ancestors of Jiuyou Sect once researched and created a small magical spell based on this secret realm, which was named "The Coming of the Magic Bamboo".

If this technique had been performed in the past when the magic bamboo was flourishing, it would have been as if it were assisted by a god and its power would have been unbelievable.

Now it is completely destroyed, with no grass growing on it, and the spiritual veins of the surrounding mountains have also been downgraded. That is why it was taken over by nine new and old forces after years of fighting.

These nine families are all dirty in their own way and appear to be on good terms with each other. As neighbors, they are natural competitors.

On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore?
They were on guard against each other, fearing that someone would steal their house.

That's why the leader of the Rong Sect didn't want to lead Lin Shan here, because there were only enemies at his doorstep, not a single friend!
But now that things have come to this, we can only return to the shelter.

Fortunately, every sacred mountain here is planted with magic bamboos, stretching as far as the eye can see.

Because every household has this magical power.

'The Devil's Bamboo Arrives'.

Therefore, as long as it is used at home, this kind of magical power is unstoppable, which has led to the situation where none of the nine sects can do anything to each other for many years.

When Lin Shan first arrived here, he couldn't help but be cautious.
