Chapter 28 Talk
Actually, Rong Qing was heartbroken.
She had indeed been tricked. She has almost never fought with monks. She has only watched the battles of Sword Sect disciples and gained some experience. But she has almost zero experience of actually fighting against monks of the same level, let alone facing someone with a higher level of cultivation than her, or even more than one. She was completely sure of killing Cheng Ke, so she took action without hesitation. After killing Cheng Ke, knowing that at least there was a pill forming monk on the way, she went down the mountain and ran towards Suicheng without looking back.
The enemy of your enemy can be your friend. Rong Qing really wanted to talk. She had guessed that the other party would be very rude and even give her a blow. Then the cassock hidden under the academy's standard robe can definitely protect her. I never expected...it turned out to be a pupil technique.
This touches on her knowledge blind spot.
Due to the scarcity of high-level pupil techniques, there was no way to learn the pupil technique in the limited time Rong Xianyu Qingfen had given to practice the technique. And this directly caused her to watch the bloodshot rush into the sea of consciousness in panic, unable to do anything.
The bloodshot threads crashed into the restriction buried in the base of the tower like a baby swallow.
The complicated forbidden text suddenly became bright. Every word seems to have vitality, skimming, twisting, bending, hooking... pulling on the blood, making it quickly turn from darkness to light.
The bloodshot was filtered by this restriction, and was invisibly disassembled and reassembled. It seemed to be the same as before, but it completely changed its direction and fought back against the caster.
But after this battle, the restriction hidden in the base of the tower finally fell into silence. And this moment's response took away 50% of Rong Qing's little spiritual energy.
Life-saving trump card! Fifty percent spiritual energy!
Everything makes Rong Qing heartbroken, yet she still pretends that nothing happened. The start was already unfavorable, so he didn't dare to be seen by the other party.
Rong Qing waited for the middle-aged man's answer with a smile.
Obviously, with the middle-aged man's alchemy cultivation, he must be an elder of Shanxing's sect.
The middle-aged man took a deep breath and raised his hand to wipe away the blood seeping from the corners of his eyes.
"I relied on my own cultivation and was careless." Even though the middle-aged man's anger surged for a moment, he was forced to suppress it now.
Since it was the first test, he was naturally prepared for a counterattack.
But under extremely determined circumstances, he was actually hit back by a Qi Refining Period... At that moment, of course he was very unhappy.
Can the junior Qi refiner in front of me use a similar method again? What other methods has she not used? A middle-aged man with these questions could not be led by his emotions, so he laughed at himself and introduced himself to Rong Qing, "My Taoist name is Yun Tong, and I am now the master of Baishi Temple."
As soon as these words came out, Rong Qing was obviously startled.
Baishi Temple - something that the Master has been studying for twenty years. The group of monks were eager to explore it, and she almost died because of her broken finger. As a result, Yun Tong in front of him said it lightly.
There is a sense of unreality.
Rong Qing's face darkened.
"Baishi Temple, huh," she felt a little ridiculous, "do you really know that the group of people who kidnapped Master Guo and me were doing it for Baishi Temple."
When Yun Tong heard this, he remained calm and said, "It wasn't clear at first, but now, even Pindao almost understands it."
"What's the secret behind Baishi Temple?" Rong Qing asked directly.
"...It's not impossible to tell Fellow Daoist Yu, but," Yun Tong's eyes flashed, "I am also somewhat interested in Fellow Daoist's origins."
Yun Tong and Rong Qing told some strange things about Baishi Temple, but they were nothing. Ke Yuntong, as a Jindan master, has had many interactions with other cultivators. If he can get more information through this, it will be of great benefit to him in the future. How could Rong Qing not understand that before he wanted to tell the secrets of Baishi Temple, he deliberately put forward more conditions.
"Do you really want to exchange answers with each other? Yes." Rong Qing agreed.
"My origin is actually very simple. I come from a fishing village in the north of the South China Sea." She recalled, "When I was a child, a passing monk saw that I had spiritual roots, and he immediately developed a love for talents. He attracted me He entered the cultivation gate and taught me the way to restrain... Later, he left for some reason. Since I didn't have the spiritual stone, I couldn't continue my cultivation, so I just took the spiritual boat and crossed the South China Sea to Jing Country."
"That's it?" I didn't believe it.
"That's it." Rong Qing nodded. Regardless of whether others believed it or not, she believed it anyway. "Now it's the real person's turn to answer me."
Yun Tong snorted coldly when he heard this: "Yu Daoyou is unwilling to tell the truth, so do you dare to believe what Ping Dao says next?"
"Why don't you believe it?" Rong Qing sneered, "That's all. You and I each have our own secrets, and we don't want to tell them easily. The answer is not important enough to require an oath. Asking further is just a waste of time. I will directly talk to you. Let me tell you the reason why I want to see you."
Yun Tong raised his long eyebrows and said in a cold voice: "Fellow Daoist Yu can feel free to say it, but this time, don't play tricks on me again."
"I must see you, just for cooperation." Rong Qing said slowly, not minding Yuntong's tone, "That group of monks have done whatever it takes for the sake of Baishi Temple. Master Guo has a master-disciple relationship with me, and he taught me I must avenge her."
Yun Tong was disdainful in his heart that just relying on his Qi refining skills, he even falsely said that he would kill all those practitioners. When he thought of the barefoot man wearing a ghost mask, his heart felt cold.
Definitely can't beat it! If he hadn't relied on the White Stone Temple, he might have died within ten breaths.
"I know that my cultivation is only qi refining, and you don't think it's normal. The bargaining chip for me to seek cooperation is of course not my cultivation, but an absolutely powerful sword intent." Rong Qing's lips curled up slightly, "I Master left behind a sword intention and a restraint to protect my Yuanying's life."
Shan Xing, who had been silent all the time, heard this, and he, who had always been steady, couldn't help but take a breath.
If Yu Rong really had such a master, what kind of cultivation level would he have?
Yuntong obviously thinks so too. "How powerful is this sword intention?" he asked.
"It's more than enough to kill Jiedan, but even if you face True Monarch Nascent Soul, there's still a chance of hurting him."
When Yun Tong heard this, his expression remained as usual. In fact, my heart was greatly shocked.
He thought that having Shiraishi Kan in hand would give him a great advantage in defense. If coupled with such a sword intent... In order to break through the Nascent Soul realm in the future, he will choose to go to secret realms and other places to experience. With these two trump cards in his possession, wouldn't the probability of survival be greatly increased?
"How many times can you use this sword intention, Fellow Daoist Yu?" Yun Tong asked tentatively.
"Of course such a powerful thing can only be used once. When Master handed it to me, he also specifically told me not to waste it until the moment of life and death." Rong Qing lowered her eyes, "If I face the leader of that group of monks, , I can use this sword intention!"
"What do you want?" Yun Tong asked.
As for what Rong Qing said, it could only be used once, he...actually didn't quite believe it. Even if they are Taoist companions, they cannot always tell the truth when communicating about their trump cards. What's more, between him and Rong Qing, who were still strangers.
She must be hiding something. Yun Tong was very determined. If it was really only once, how could she let it go? For a mortal, it is absolutely impossible. Yun Tong estimated that the mysterious monk left her with more than one sword intention! Of course, it can't be too much. He can take this opportunity to observe carefully what medium this sword intention relies on. Maybe there is a chance to capture the remaining sword intent.
"My request is not difficult." Rong Qing stared closely into Yun Tong's eyes, not worrying about the pupil technique that might appear again. Because Yun Tong's pupil technique is of a high level, it is impossible for him to use it a second time after the backlash. "I want the battlefield to be far away from Jing Country. No more mortals will die needlessly because of the monks' fighting."
