Chapter 654: The Curse Returns, Lord Ku Rong

"."

When it was time to say goodbye, Qianjizi became serious rarely.

After a moment of silence, he whispered to him.

"I can secretly erase the traces of your participation in the Black Lotus Sect's headquarters battle in Lu State, but I am powerless to do anything about the southern Song State."

"Thank you very much."

Lin Shan clasped his fists solemnly, he knew this was his weakness.

Even though the Lujiang League is now quite influential in western Shandong and even in the State of Lu, that is because the four top forces are not deliberately targeting them, or they are temporarily too busy to pay attention to them.

Once you really plan to get serious.

His origins, family background, and even his actions in Lu State cannot be concealed at all. Don't even think about getting away with it!

He has never underestimated the intelligence capabilities of top forces.

If the fact that he followed Master Huang, Guardian Yan and other demons back to the Black Lotus Sect headquarters was discovered and made public, what would happen to him?
It is absolutely an unbearable burden!
By then, no one can protect themselves, and even the entire Lujiang League will remain silent without hesitation and watch themselves being wanted and captured.

Strength, what he needs is strength!
If one has reached the Nascent Soul stage, then one can truly possess the ability to protect oneself!

Time, he needs more time!
Before the ancestors of the major top forces returned, he had the ability to make them fear him and force them to acknowledge his status and position.

Therefore, he often involuntarily develops a sense of urgency.

Because the sword hanging over his head had no control over when it would fall, he could only wait passively.

The only thing I can do is to run around and grow as quickly as possible.

Now it seems that even though he has made rapid progress, it is still not enough, because Qianjizi has already noticed him!

Fortunately, the intelligence department of Jingyang Academy was under his control, so this matter could not be concealed and reported, and it was not a problem for him to simply handle the whole thing for him.

The stain on the Lu side can be wiped off, but the stain on the Song side is a bit difficult to deal with.

Although the two sides are millions of miles apart, once the intelligence system of a large sect decides to track down a person, it can still afford to spend some time and energy.

"It seems that I can only send a message to Lin Fan when I have time to see if he can help me clean up the mess at the Zixiao Sect of the Great Song Dynasty."

This is called prevention before it happens. It is never too late to mend the fence after the sheep have been lost.

It would be best if it could be erased, but if it cannot be erased then we can only try our best. After all, the battle between good and evil in the Song Dynasty affected too wide a range and involved too many people, so it would be a bit difficult to remove it.

Shui Bingyue also secretly sent a message to him, and it was obvious that there were some things she didn't want Qianjizi to know.

"Brother Lin, when I go back this time, I will completely isolate myself from the outside world and will not come out until I reach the Nascent Soul stage!"

"Xiaodie will be taken care of by you now. If the spiritual fluid it needs is not enough, please help me fill it up first. I will return it to you next time we meet."

"Although I haven't asked my senior brother about your past deeds, I have a rough idea of ​​them. I can only say that you must be careful in your future actions!"

"Also, if you meet someone named Cai Yubing in the future, you must stay away from her. Remember, remember."

"Take care of yourself!"

After saying that, he turned around and left with Qianjizi and a group of people from the barbarian tribe.

"Eh?."

Lin Shan stretched out his arm and felt that Sailor Moon seemed to be in a bad condition. He wanted to grab her and ask her what was going on.

But the other party was decisive and didn't give him any chance to ask questions.

"See you next time, I hope I will still be myself."

A voice gradually faded away from the distance, ethereal and melodious, inexplicably sad, and seemingly with a hint of helplessness.

"."

Lin Shan was the only one left in the sky.

He was thinking.

In fact, ever since they met in the Yuxing Secret Realm, he felt that Sailor Moon's condition had always been wrong. It was slightly different from the heroic feeling she had when they met in the Cliff Forbidden Land before.

He is also quick and decisive, but there is always something strange about his actions, as if he has a lot of unspeakable worries that he is carrying alone in his heart.

If he had to say what was wrong, he couldn't describe it, but maybe the two of them had been in sync for a long time, and that inexplicable change could always be noticed from the subtle details.

Especially when Sailor Moon said that she had also specially investigated her previous details
What does she investigate herself for?
This left Lin Shan confused.

After all, the previous "Altar Purifier" was nothing in Lin's eyes, but in the eyes of the righteous people, it was a definite stain!
Sailor Moon doesn't feel any discomfort?
And there is Cai Yubing, who is this person and what is her relationship with him?
Lin Shan even suspected that Sailor Bingyue didn't dare to carry the Void Butterfly with her and could only let it go. Maybe she really had other unspeakable difficulties!
"Forget it. I have a lot of things to do. Why should I worry about her?"

He has reached the peak of the Golden Core stage, and after returning he has been in seclusion to prepare for the Nascent Soul stage. I have just broken through to the late Golden Core stage with the help of the Yuxing Secret Treasure, and there is still a huge gap between the two.

Next time we meet, I might have to call you senior.

The most urgent thing now is to find a place and have a good rest. There is no time to be sad and sentimental.

Visit around.

Lin Shan found a gathering place for cultivators, which was a family of immortal cultivators.

This place is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and is in a remote location. There is a small village within a mile radius. The farmland is divided and cultivated in an orderly manner, and the environment looks good.

Open the Star Eyes that can see through illusions and see qi from a distance.

It was discovered that there were only a few big and small people in that family of cultivators, and no powerful figures were hiding.

Lin Shan then flew into the sky and swept the area with his spiritual sense.

There was one at the ninth level of Qi training, one at the eighth level, three at the sixth level, five at the third level, and a bunch of servants at the innate and acquired levels.
It's really a cultivation family that can't be any smaller.

There isn’t even a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage!

After so long, Lin Shan almost forgot what the bottom of the cultivation world was like. He had come into contact with many Jindan-stage cultivators, and always thought that his Xun Gu Sect was at the bottom of the cultivation world.

In fact, in the eyes of such small forces, Xun Gu Sect has become an unattainable behemoth!

He looked down and saw the old ancestor who had reached the ninth level of Qi training meditating in the dark basement in the backyard.

The old man who was at the eighth level of Qi training seemed to be the head of the family or an elder, and he was instructing his servants to do some work and make corrections.

The few people who have reached the sixth level of Qi training are all busy with their own things.

Some were drawing with talisman pens, while younger ones were watching with talisman sand. Suddenly, their spiritual power went out of control and the talisman paper spontaneously combusted!

The three-foot-high flame almost set off his eyebrows!
Some were explaining the exercises to the younger generations in the yard, patiently and eloquently. In the middle of the explanation, some people stood up to ask about something they did not understand, and as a result they were scolded and ordered not to leave their seats during the explanation.

This reminded Lin Shan of his childhood at the Lin family. When the elders were explaining the exercises, they clearly said that if they didn't understand, they could ask questions in time. But if anyone really did that, they would be scolded. The older generation hated being interrupted the most.

Others are taming spiritual beasts. It is a tall and handsome spiritual horse, still wild. When the rider rides on it, the horse will swing and roll constantly. You can tell at a glance that it is not domestically bred but brought from outside.

In the training ground, Coach Wu was training the disciples in the clan who had no spiritual roots.

In some remote woodsheds, servants and maids were having affairs.
A family of cultivators, with all kinds of living beings, vividly displayed in front of Lin Shan.

"Who is it? Senior..." A cultivator below looked up and suddenly found Lin Shan. He was about to question him when he suddenly realized that anyone who could fly in the sky must be a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage at the very least, so he quickly changed his words.

This sound alarmed the entire family.

Everyone put down what they were doing and either walked out or looked through the windows. When they saw the uninvited guest flying in the sky, they couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Are you here to seek revenge?

Or are you here to rob?

Will the whole family be wiped out?
Or, with a very small probability, he wants to take in a disciple?
"Greetings, senior. Welcome to Yuze Township. I am the head of the Lan family, Lan Shiwen."

The old man who was at the eighth level of Qi training came out and knelt on the ground!
Bowing one's head to the ground shows great respect.

The other members of the tribe all behaved in an orderly manner, just like ordinary people encountering immortal cultivators. They knelt without saying a word. This is the true situation of the lower classes in the world of cultivation!
In order to survive, the low-level monks were afraid of being accidentally crushed to death by the high-level monks, so they were extremely respectful and attentive.

"Get up. I'm just passing by here. Please don't be polite."

Lin Shan descended and walked directly into the main hall with the head of the Lan family.

There was no need for him to be hypocritical and polite, so he sat in the main seat without hesitation. Several sixth-level Qi training cultivators from outside the clan also walked in and stood below respectfully.

The head of the Lan family offered his best spiritual tea in a flattering manner.

After some understanding, Lin Shan finally realized where he was now.

The northern part of Jin State, Yuanyangzhou, Tonglu Prefecture, Huancheng County, and Yuze Township.

The Lan family is a little-known local family of immortal cultivators. They haven't even reached the foundation-building stage, so they are not qualified to compete for any famous mountains or scenic spots.

He lived here, relying on a magical tea tree, and established his own family.

Yes, you heard that right!

Other sects use spiritual veins as their foundation, but this small family can only use a spiritual tree as its foundation!

This tree is just an ordinary spiritual tree, and the tea it produces is only a second-grade spiritual item.

The effect is to clear away distracting thoughts and make your mind empty.

But even so, it is enough to become a cash cow for a small family.

"We can produce ten kilograms of tea a year, and each kilogram can be sold for thirty spirit stones, which is barely enough to cover the expenses of our clan. However, the scorching heat of Jiaozhou in recent years has caused the soil environment here to deteriorate, seriously affecting the production of tea trees."

While reporting, the head of the Lan family sighed, because this tea tree was affected by the environment, other cultivators in the clan began to find other ways to expand their financial resources from making talismans and taming beasts.

Lin Shan seemed to be thinking about something.

This place is located in the northern part of Jin State, and happens to be the adjacent border area to the famous and extremely vicious Jiaozhou.

He had also explored this place and found that there was not even a micro spiritual vein. It was a pure mortal land, otherwise it would not be used as a base for such a small family.

A small tea tree has to support a whole family, which is quite shabby and embarrassing.

Of course, this is just an appearance.

In fact, there is a spiritual spring deep underground, but it is too deep for them to find it.

There are only these people in the hall now. The younger generation outside dare not come in. The old ancestor who has reached the ninth level of Qi training is still in seclusion. There are no spiritual veins on the surface and the spiritual energy is so sparse. No one knows what he is in seclusion for.

With Lin Shan’s current strength, just by looking at him, one can tell that if this person does not have external help, he will most likely not be able to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage in this lifetime.

He did not deliberately ask this person to come out for an audience, nor did he bother to follow the young monks' lead in being polite.

"Snapped!"

A storage bag was thrown in front, and there was a crisp sound inside, as if something was colliding.

"Here is one thousand spirit stones. Find me a quiet house where I won't be disturbed and I can stay here for a while."

"Thank you, senior. Please follow me and go this way."

Patriarch Lan collected the spirit stones. As the saying goes, money makes the world go round. If he was afraid before, he is now completely willing!

He immediately led Lin Shan to a place in the backyard, where there was a spacious room with a yard and the environment was quite quiet.

"Okay, go ahead, there's nothing to do here."

Lin Shan drove these people away and began to live in seclusion on his own.

The first thing he did was to open up the spiritual spring underground so that he could use it.

This kind of small matter is not a big deal for a Jindan stage cultivator and can be done in a quarter of an hour.

"Gurgling gurgling"

A clear spring gushed up from the ground and was about to flood the training room.

"Dangdang!"

Lin Shan threw out the newly acquired Star Palace and suppressed the spring on the spot. He also connected the Star Palace with the spiritual spring, which was equivalent to a portable mobile castle that could be used anytime.

Xing Mansion expanded the training room and almost stretched it out of shape. Although outsiders could see that something was wrong, the group didn't dare to ask any more questions.

Now in Jin State, he is not picky, as long as it is a spiritual place.

There are too many things to do in Lu State, so it is better to rest here first.

Just as he was about to go into seclusion, he suddenly felt an indescribable nausea that surged up from his chest, sweeping over him like a tide, and his whole body trembled like a sieve!
"not good!"

Lin Shan quickly sat cross-legged and mobilized all his magic power to suppress it.

A distant sinister laugh came, full of greed and violence:
"Hahaha, soul cultivator, I haven't met a soul cultivator in a long time. It's just right for me to devour him to increase my foundation. Come on, come on!"

A skinny hand stretched out from a collapsed door, about to crush his heart.

"Get out of here!"

The magical powers of wind and thunder were mobilized together, competing with the hand inside his body, and the aftermath caused great damage to his meridians!
Layer after layer of golden bodies lit up, and the Dark Water Body Tempering Technique also began to work.

After a while, the withered hand was finally crushed into pieces and turned into wisps of gray smoke that dissipated in the wind.

"Just wait for me, kid. I am the Demon Lord Kuruo of the Withered Demon Clan in the Second World of Hell. I will be back!"

"Shu~"

Lin Shan withdrew his attention and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood!

He was injured internally, simply because the internal fight just now took place inside his body and the intensity of the fight was high, so he was affected.

curse!

This is a cursed magical power!
After such a long time, he would occasionally be hit once in a while in the Yuxing secret collection, but the arrival of Yuanying stage creatures has not appeared for a long time!
Hell Second World,

The Demon Lord Ku Rong?

Why is this name so similar to the Taoist name of Young Master Jiuyou’s big backer?
The Withered Demon Clan, what kind of race is this!
