Immortal Road.

Chapter 813: Group Visit to Allies, Once on Jingyang

"Is this the spiritual treasure of the cave???"

The Black Skeleton Demon Lord's eyes shone with light, and he stretched out his bone claws and touched it tremblingly.

Lin Shan was somewhat puzzled:

"I remember you wore leather gloves before, because you were afraid that others would notice something unusual. Why don't you wear them now?"

"You're already in the Nascent Soul stage, what are you afraid of?"

The Black Skull Demon Lord didn't care. He took the cave treasure and rubbed it on the skull in ecstasy.
But as soon as he input the soul energy, he found out that it actually had an owner, and he jumped up immediately!
Then he impatiently expelled the refining mark inside, wanting to take it for himself. His impatience was like that of a sex-hungry ghost who had not touched a woman for sixty years!
However, no matter how hard it tried, it could not erase the refining mark inside, as if there was a more powerful existence competing with it in the dark.

After hitting the wall for a long time, the skeleton was suddenly startled, thought of something, and quickly raised his head.

He found that Lin Shan was staring at him.

The two just looked at each other in silence.

"."

Most afraid of the air suddenly quiet.

"Uh, is this you.?"

The Black Skull Demon Lord dug his toes into the ground in embarrassment.

"it's me."

Lin Shan looked at it dimly.

At this moment, the two of them seemed to be facing the Lingbao Xuxing Plate when they were in the Song Dynasty and were in the foundation-building stage.

next moment,
For some reason, the Black Skull Demon Lord felt a pain in his eyes, and he threw the magic treasure to the ground with all his might, and suddenly his defense was broken!

Bang~
"Mr. Lin, what do you mean?!"

"You promised to give me the spiritual treasure, but now you go back on your word. Are you kidding me?!"

"I've been with you through thick and thin for so many years, and I've taken care of your house and business for you. No matter what work you asked me to do, I've always done it beautifully for you, and you treat me like this???"

"When cows and horses are tired, they know to give them grass to eat. I've been waiting for so many years, but there's nothing left!"

The roar echoed in the hall, and it was hoarse and shrill, which made anyone who heard it sad and cried.

Master Zhan Kong outside had just walked to the door and was about to come in and knock on it to report, when he suddenly heard faint shouting from inside and hesitated at the door, which was unusual.

He wanted to lie down at the door of the palace and eavesdrop, but he was afraid that he would be discovered by the two Yuanying masters inside, so he retreated in shame.

Lin Shan looked at the skeleton screaming at the top of its lungs, without any sympathy at all. He just quietly enjoyed its performance.

It would be fine if it had really been assisting me wholeheartedly over the years, but it is always thinking about rebelling and making demands to me from time to time, so I can't indulge it!
The spiritual treasure and soul source, only what I give you are yours; if I don’t give it to you, you can’t snatch it away.

Why are you being hysterical with me now? What were you doing in the first place?
The Black Skull Demon Lord vented for a while, and seeing that Lin Shan was not fooled at all, he secretly cursed this kid for being so hard-hearted and wasting his acting skills.

"Have you had enough trouble?"

Lin Shan asked calmly.

"enough."

The Black Skull Demon Lord hung his head, like a child who couldn't get a candy ball from his parents.

"If it's enough, let me see if I can fix it."

Lin Shan gave orders again, and the Black Skull Demon Lord dared not disobey. He had to check everything from top to bottom and finally gave a conclusion.

"It can be repaired."

"If it can be repaired, repair it first, and then this Lingbao Cave Heaven will be temporarily handed over to you for safekeeping."

"Oh?"

The Black Skull Demon Lord was a little confused now, and tried to question with disbelief.

"Are you really willing to give me the spiritual treasure?"

"When did I say I was giving it to you? I plan to use this cave as the base camp of the Lujiang League. I will recruit all the talented elites of the allies to come here for further study, and you will be in charge of it yourself!"

"Hey, you have this good stuff, but instead of keeping it all to yourself, you're willing to open it up to all your allies?"

"The space in the cave is so big, it would be a waste for the Xun Gu Sect alone. It would be better to screen all the geniuses in the alliance to facilitate integration into the system in the future."

When a force possesses a cave, it is a symbol of its presence, a resounding signboard, and also a temptation to the outside world.

The Black Skull Demon Lord nodded, understanding his intention, which was nothing more than to use various means to make the Lujiang Alliance a solid entity.

There may not be any obvious results in the short term, but in the long run it will have a subtle effect.

As for letting it keep the spiritual treasure, it is no different from him owning it, and it does not affect its ability to study the mysteries of the treasure anytime and anywhere.

"By the way, I have already paid off the debt that Xun Gu Cult owed on your behalf."

Lin Shan handed most of the resources he had obtained from the Feather Clan to it.

"Repair Lingbao Cave Heaven. Take whatever you need from inside."

“In addition, we are now spending a high price to purchase all the spiritual veins on the market, as well as the related soul sacred objects. We must always send special personnel to pay attention and do our best to capture them once they appear!”

"Let's set the period at thirty years!"

"And these flying instruments and magic weapons should be handed over to Lu Xiuming of Xun Gu Sect. Let him be responsible for training a flying unit."

Lin Shan took out all the wing treasures of the Feather Clan and told him about his plan to build a flying feather army. The Black Skull Demon Lord was amazed and asked him if he had the drawings for refining this treasure.

"Of course!"

By the way, he took out the fifth-level feathered wing that he had plucked from the Feathered Clan's Nascent Soul ancestor and asked it if it could be used to refine an ancient flying treasure.

The Black Skull Demon Lord immediately rubbed his hands excitedly and asked him directly!

"Brother, this is still warm. Is this the material you got from killing the ancestor of the Feathered People?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"Where's the Nascent Soul of the Feathered Clan's ancestor? Take it out as well!"

"What are you doing?"

Lin Shan didn't know why it was so excited.

The Black Skull Demon Lord slapped his thigh, pointed at the pair of wings, and soul sparks flew everywhere.

"I have the fifth-level wings of the Feathered Clan, the blueprint in hand, and the Nascent Soul of the Feathered Clan. This is a good opportunity for me to try to refine a spiritual treasure!"

"???"

Lin Shan was suddenly stunned. He had really forgotten about this! According to common sense, at the beginning, spiritual treasures were all made of ancient treasures of super-level spiritual materials, plus the fifth-level spiritual life with matching attributes.

The soul of the ancestor of the Feather Clan, paired with the wings of the Feather Clan, isn't that a perfect match?
But he had not thought of this at the beginning, and directly let the clone of Silence swallow him. Later, he found the blueprint of the flying magic weapon from the inheritance. Now it is too late to regret.

"Hurry up and take it out. This is a spiritual treasure. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. What a great chance!"

When the Black Skull Demon Lord thought that he could refine another magical treasure with his own hands, he couldn't help but tremble all over and dance with excitement.

Lin Shan came back to his senses and could only cough dryly, saying that he accidentally killed the ancestor of the Feather Clan and failed to capture his soul.

He would never tell anyone about the fact that his clone ate his Nascent Soul.

After hearing this, the Black Skull Demon Lord immediately wilted like a deflated ball.

"It's okay. Ancient treasures are ancient treasures. There's not much difference between newly refined spiritual treasures and ancient treasures. I'm not picky. I'll just use whatever I can get by."

Lin Shan comforted it instead.

"How can it be the same? A spiritual treasure is a thing that will last for thousands of years. After many years, when the spirit of the weapon grows up, it will be the most precious treasure of the sect!"

The Black Skull Demon Lord still sighed. When people discussed a spiritual treasure, they would also think of the weapon refining master, who was famous in history and had a fatal temptation to it.

"Let alone a thousand years, I can't even wait for hundreds of years. Let's focus on the present and seize the day. Let's not talk about anything else, just work hard!"

Lin Shan encouraged him and walked out of here, leaving the Black Skull Demon Lord alone in a daze.

Next,
I found Master Zhankong and learned about his recent situation.

After learning that both Lujiang League and Lujiang Academy have been recognized by the Central Region, I felt relieved. It would be best if the transition could be smooth.

After walking around Ding Mall and making sure that everything was on track and thriving, he nodded with satisfaction and stopped paying too much attention to it.

And then three months later.

Lin Shan returned to western Shandong and inspected Xun Gu Sect and Lujiang League. He personally found the ancestor Lu Que and successfully helped him break through the Soul Infant Stage!
The process was uneventful. Originally, I thought that since Patriarch Lu Que had a profound background, coupled with the many treasures given by Lin Shan for overcoming tribulations, there would definitely be no mistakes.

But who knew it would be more difficult than the evil spirit Kun!
The reason lies in the problem of the physical body.

Ancestor Lu Que had no way to advance in soul cultivation, so he studied the art of clones and turned himself into a stitched monster that looked like nothing.

Now that he had survived the heavenly tribulation, he fell apart into pieces on the spot!
Later, with the help of the Thunder Dragon and the treasures of the earth, he barely survived the whole process, but the soul in the deer head was also struck to death. Fortunately, Lin Shan saved it with his soul source.

After experiencing his subordinates’ Nascent Soul tribulation twice in succession, he realized that most people actually had no hope of breaking through the Nascent Soul stage!
No wonder there are so many people in the Jindan stage in the world of cultivation, but so few in the Yuanying stage.

Even if ancestor Lu Que did not have the Thunder Dragon treasure and soul source, he would have died at the threshold of breaking through the Nascent Soul stage, not to mention others.

According to his understanding of the "Divine Illumination Wish Wheel Sutra", he gave detailed guidance and helped him sort out his soul energy. Only after his realm was completely stabilized did Lin Shan feel at ease to leave.

The headquarters of Lujiang League is Xianyin City.

Ever since his allies followed him on the expedition to northwest Shandong, this place has become much quieter. Fortunately, the basic situation in the rear area is still relatively stable.

In these years, those forces that once refused to obey the rules either simply joined the Lujiang League or behaved in a low profile. Now that the two Yuanying of Xun Gu Sect have appeared in the world, no force dares to oppose them.

However, this is still the base camp of the Lujiang League. After ancestor Lu Que consolidates his soul infant stage, he will go to northwest Shandong to take charge of the Lujiang Academy and replace the Black Skull Demon Lord to guard the home.

The two have never gotten along, and Patriarch Lu Que is still brooding over the incident of imprisonment and torture of his soul skills, so he tries to keep them apart.

After visiting these two places, he went to Yunqi Cliff without stopping.

Second visit to Yunchuan Academy!

The professors were not surprised by his sudden visit, and they immediately set up a banquet to entertain him.

Now that he has become a Yuanying Zhenjun, everyone in Yunchuan Academy is amazed at their previous investment and claims that they have made the right bet.

Lin Shan also generously shared his cultivation experiences here for a few days, and left many classics to enrich the library here.

In particular, a comprehensive review of the techniques and guidance for the future were provided to all the professors, which was what these senior executives had wanted the most but could not get.

With his current vision, it was just a piece of cake.

After visiting Yunchuan Academy, the next step is to head to southwestern Shandong to visit the new Hongdu Palace!
These two academies can be considered his staunch allies, so of course he would visit them more often when he has time to deepen his contacts and communications.

The new Hongdu Prefecture has not yet been awarded the title of one of the top ten academies. The Central Region has never recognized it, and the top forces are still imposing unilateral sanctions on it, waiting for it to no longer be able to hold on and then offer their surrender.

Who knew that when Lin Shan really arrived.

The entire academy held an unprecedented welcome ceremony for him!
He was also taken on an in-depth tour of most of the academy's background. Overall, it was no less powerful than the newly established Lujiang Academy. It was a powerful ally. No wonder it could dominate the region.

After that, he met alone with the legendary figure from southwestern Shandong, the founding palace master Kongshenzi, only to find out that this person had also quietly broken through to the Nascent Soul stage!
The reason why they don't expose themselves is that they feel that now is not the right time. They want to play the pig and eat the tiger, and try to keep a low profile in the early stage of the Wanhui year.

Build walls high, accumulate grain, and slowly become king.

Kongshenzi was filled with emotion when facing Lin Shan. He knew deeply how much importance all major forces attached to Wan Huinian, and all their measures were hidden invisibly.

Now that the Lujiang Alliance has jumped out to attract attention, he will hide behind it and wait and see what happens. He also promised that if anything unexpected happens in the future, the three alliances will definitely advance and retreat together, and he will not hesitate to step out from behind the scenes to the front.

Lin Shan expressed his gratitude for the sincerity in Kong Shenzi's words, but he was not naive enough to believe that the other party would really follow him to the end regardless of everything.

Of course, judging from the current situation, the two companies are still staunch allies, and their cooperation in all aspects is closely related.

Finally, we said goodbye reluctantly and ended the visit.

Lin Shan went to the next stop and turned to head straight to the Central Region. He wanted to keep his appointment with Sailor Moon!
Although the two had not communicated for a long time, when he was away, Bailu Academy and Shangyang Academy put pressure on Xun Gu Sect, and it was only thanks to the mediation of Jingyang Academy that it was saved.

Shui Bingyue had helped him silently, so he went to express his gratitude, and then he read what she had written in the letter, inviting him to work together to deal with the Holy Maiden of the Cha Nu Palace, Cha Yubing.

Lin Shan actually has a grudge against Qia Yubing.

He once killed two important chess pieces of this woman, Princess Guo and the top pick of Yichuan, and was later hunted down by Wanli!

By chance, he used the cursed magical power, the Seven Arrows Book, and reunited with the Holy Son of the Wudao Sect, forcing him to remove the tracking mark, narrowly escaping with his life.

Now that he has gained enough strength, it’s a good opportunity for him to help Sailor Moon while settling his old scores at the same time!
Zhongyu.

This is his second time here.

The first time was when he followed the remaining members of the Black Lotus Sect, including Master Huang, Protector Yan, and Luanchun, and retreated all the way from the Song Dynasty to the Black Lotus Sect headquarters, just in time to catch up with the end of the great war between good and evil in the State of Lu.

After that escape to western Shandong, he never returned.

The strength we have now is incomparable to that of the past, and we will no longer be afraid of any threats.

Jingyang Academy is crowded with people.

This place is still one of the most prosperous places in the Central Region, a place for Confucian studies, and the headquarters of the four top forces.

It was only when Lin Shan actually arrived that he was informed by the old professor who stayed behind.

Sailor Moon had left half a month ago and left him a letter.
