Chapter 221: Destruction of the Family
The breeze blew, and the elder's uniform swayed in the wind.
The owner of the clothes had long since been reduced to bones by the passage of time, and even the bones were filled with old cotton wool, dense vines, etc. It was impossible to tell what the mess was.
Ning Daoran sat there blankly, and his golden elixir consciousness detected something.
About ten feet away from the garment maker, half of the flying sword was inserted into the wrinkled bark of the "holy tree".
Although the flying sword has been broken, the spiritual energy has not been completely lost, and it is still faintly blood-red.
This flying sword looks very familiar, it was exactly what Ning Daoran personally refined back then.
He remained calm and slowly closed his eyes.
……
“Dong dong dong~~~”
Amidst the sound of drums, the great shaman of Guiyuan Sect shouted loudly: "The conferred person comes forward and prays for the blessing of the holy tree!"
Immediately, the dozens of disciples, led by a foundation-building elder, stepped forward and all knelt under the ancient tree.
"Ask the Holy Tree for opportunities!"
"Ask the Holy Tree for opportunities!"
"Ask the Holy Tree for opportunities!"
A group of disciples knelt on the ground, not daring to raise their heads, and just kept shouting.
In the air, the roots, vines, branches and leaves of the "holy tree" danced wildly, like a demon, its whole body trembling slightly, as if taking a final breath.
For a moment, the corpses hanging on the tree also swayed together, and some of the bodies were even not completely dead. The people who were hung made a whimpering sound, and the last blood essence was drilled into the branches of the body in the blink of an eye. Sucked dry.
"Swish, swish, swish——"
In the air, dozens of thin tree roots fell from the sky, and then these roots "puff-puff" penetrated into the bodies of the dozens of disciples.
Immediately, wisps of blood-colored energy flowed along the tree roots and injected into the bodies of the teenagers. After the teenagers withstood the extremely huge energy, each one of them became ferocious.
"Ahhhh~~~"
There was even a boy who couldn't bear the pain and screamed.
Everyone became nervous, and the parents of these teenagers were even more nervous.
"Baby, you must hold on. With the blessing of the holy tree, as long as you follow, our old Liu family will be able to get ahead in the future, and we won't have to be bullied anymore..."
"You must accept all the gifts from the Holy Tree, girl, don't let dad down!"
……
Ning Daoran's eyes were indifferent, without any expression during the whole process.
"Zhang Daoyou."
On the side, Zuo Qiuhan suddenly turned around, looked at Ning Daoran meaningfully, and said through a message: "Are fellow Taoists full of doubts in their hearts, do they think that my Guiyuan Sect is actually a demon?"
"Oh?"
Ning Daoran smiled and said: "What did the sect master say? How could I feel this way?"
"Alas..."
Zuo Qiuhan said: "Cats have cat ways, rats have rat ways. If I, the Guiyuan Sect, were not forced to the point of no choice, how could I have taken this step? In the eyes of the so-called righteous monks, this holy tree is just a head." A big evil spirit', but in Zuo's eyes, it is precisely because of this evil spirit that my young men from Guiyuan Sect have the opportunity to build the foundation...the opportunity to see the scenery of Jindan..."
< br>
He sighed: "As for killing the same kind, this is too pedantic. Although the holy tree has indeed swallowed the bodies of many monks over the years, the world of immortality is not like this. The weak eat the strong. If Zuo doesn't kill, how can he? Will Guiyuan Sect be carried forward step by step? ”
Ning Daoran nodded slightly and remained silent.
"Zhang Daoyou."
Zuo Qiuhan continued: "The vitality of the holy tree is very good. It is not only useful for young people, but also for golden elixirs like us."
As he spoke, a ray of light shot out from his eyes, and he said: "As long as fellow Taoists join our sect and serve as worshipers of my Guiyuan Sect, I am willing to convince the Holy Tree to allow fellow Taoists to have the opportunity to secretly participate in the grand sacrificial ceremony and receive feedback from the Holy Tree. Last time, when I received feedback, I was only a little short of breaking through to the middle stage of the Golden Core. I will definitely break through next time!”
Zuo Qiuhan became more and more excited as he spoke, and said: "My fellow Taoist and I hit it off right away. If your fellow Taoist is willing to stay, you and I will take charge of the sect together. In the land of Huangzhou, it will not be our Guiyuan Sect that finally What’s the deal? With the cultivation of the Holy Tree, you and I will almost certainly succeed in condensing the baby. What do you think, fellow Taoist?”
Ning Daoran looked indifferent: "Let's discuss it again."
He looked towards the holy tree, frowned and said: "Sect Master, using the holy tree to pass on the inheritance and support your practice seems to be fast, but in fact it is also dangerous. I see that the corpse hanging on the holy tree even has chaos. Zong Zhuji’s body…What if he offends the Chaos Sect by acting like this?”
"Hmph!"
Zuo Qiuhan sneered and said: "You should be talking about the foundation-building monk named Zhao of the Chaos Sect who went up the mountain to kill demons, right? This person is really ridiculous, just with his small flying sword He also wanted to kill the holy tree... but ended up being sucked dry of flesh and blood by the holy tree. This is the result of overestimating one's abilities
Fellow Taoist, although you can rest assured, what does the Chaos Sect have to fear? I heard that several golden elixirs from the Chaos Sect had perished in the border battle twenty years ago. Now there is only one golden elixir in the early stage of the Chaos Sect in charge. If they really dare to attack, Zuo will kill them all. So what if the clan is destroyed? ”
Ning Daoran smiled and said nothing.
"Zhang Daoyou, do you really not want to think about it?"
Zuo Qiuhan seemed sincere: "If Taoist fellow Taoist is willing to stay and serve as an offering, Zuo is willing to increase the number of spiritual stones offered each year."
"No need."
Ning Daoran smiled and said: "I am really used to traveling around the world. Thank you so much for your sincerity, Master!"
"In this case, I won't force my Taoist friends."
Zuo Qiuhan looked regretful.
Naturally, Ning Daoran would not feel unbearable or guilty because of Zuo Qiuhan's behavior. On the contrary, the reason why Zuo Qiuhan tried his best to persuade Ning Daoran to go up the mountain was because Guiyuan Sect had been captured by Huangzhou a few years ago. A first-class sect warned once that if the demon tree continues to harm people, that first-class sect will never stand idly by. Through the soul-searching memory of Miao Yuan Sansha, Ning Daoran has learned about this matter.
Therefore, Zuo Qiuhan seemed sincere, but in fact he wanted to keep Ning Daoran, the golden elixir master, in Guiyuan Sect and "take care of things" with him. If Ning Daoran really stayed, it would be easy for him to He became the cannon fodder of Guiyuan Sect.
Of course, what Zuo Qiuhan values most is actually Ning Daoran’s silly-looking spiritual beast, the white deer. The combat power of this white deer is comparable to that of the human race’s mid-stage golden elixir monks. If it can help, even the first-class sect Don't be afraid when the attack comes.
However, Ning Daoran insisted on leaving, so Zuo Qiuhan naturally would not force him to stay.
……
"Wow~~"
At this point, the young men who had accepted the "Holy Tree"'s back-feeding inheritance showed extremely painful expressions. One of the young men had blood-colored veins on his chest. He suddenly spat out a mouthful of turbid blood, and his aura continued to rise.
"Lin Qiang has broken the level! He is in the middle stage of foundation building!"
"The Holy Tree really has boundless power!"
For a moment, the entire grand ceremony was filled with excitement.
Countless young people looked at the man kneeling under the tree with wild eyes, wishing they were among them.
Soon, another young man broke through the ranks and became a perfect Qi Refiner.
People young and old went completely crazy.
Both men and women, their faces glowing red, are all crazy about this grand ceremony. Everyone hopes that the next person to accept the "inheritance" is themselves.
After saying nothing, Ning Daoran sighed, stood up and decided to leave.
Zuo Qiuhan gently flicked his sleeves, and silently, a flash of fluorescent light fell on his elbow.
……
Small courtyard, inside Lingpu Cave.
Xiao Bai stretched out his hand and flicked it, a touch of wood-attribute aura shone, and an inconspicuous mark suddenly appeared on Ning Daoran's elbow.
"Master."
She frowned lightly and said: "Then Zuo Qiuhan secretly planted a mark on you, what is your intention?"
"Humph..."
Ning Daoran frowned: "Maybe you don't want me to leave Guiyuan Sect alive?"
"Just him?" Xiaobai said angrily.
It was night, and no female cultivator from the outer sect of Guiyuan Sect came to deliver food. On the contrary, just as night fell, auras appeared in the surrounding dense forests, and even a group of extremely strong evil spirits appeared underground. breath.
Not only Zuo Qiuhan came with a group of foundation-building elders, but even the demon tree known as the "Holy Tree" also came!
This demonic tree is probably in the late stage of Jindan cultivation, and has been entrenched in Yangui Mountain for many years. It has already perfectly matched the landscape of this place. This is probably the reason why Zuo Qiuhan decided to take action and keep Ning Daoran.
"Master, what should we do? Go out and kill them all, or what?" Xiao Bai asked.
"It doesn't have to be this way."
Ning Daoran shook his head: "If we rush out to fight now, there will definitely be fish that slip through the net, which will be detrimental to us."
With that said, he stepped out of the Lingpu Cave, his whole body filled with golden elixir aura. He raised his hand to disperse the marks on his arms, and said with a hearty smile: "Friend Zuo, with just such a small trick, I want to Will you stay?”
"Fellow Taoist is really amazing."
Zuo Qiuhan's figure walked out of the night, one hand behind his back, his face full of murderous intent: "But, fellow Taoist, do you really think you can still walk away today?"
"You can try it!"
In an instant, Ning Daoran cast a spell, and his body turned into a stream of cyan light and rushed into the ground, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
"Earth Escape Technique!?"
A group of Guiyuan Sect foundation building elders were shocked.
Zuo Qiuhan was even more shocked. If he let this person run away, Guiyuan Sect would have made a golden elixir enemy. If this Master Zhang really came to seek revenge, how could he prevent him? !
"Open the mountain protection formation, quickly!"
……
After half a cup of tea.
The geese return to the mountains beyond.
Ning Daoran floated out from the soil, patted the sky of Lingpu Cave, and immediately Big Benlu and Xiaobai came out.
"Old deer..."
He looked at Yangui Mountain in the distance and said calmly: "Back then, Senior Brother Zhao Lichen left the sect to practice for many years and did not return. Everyone thought he stayed somewhere to practice, but they didn't expect that he died in Guiyuan Sect.< br>
It was Senior Brother Zhao who led us up the mountain. Senior Brother Zhao died violently. Should we help him avenge him? ! ”
"Ouch~~~"
More than a hundred cross veins appeared on the big stupid deer's forehead!
"This Guiyuan Sect must be exterminated."
Ning Daoran patted the storage bag lightly, and suddenly thirty-six array flags and thirty-six array discs flew out. Then he spilled out seventy-two second-class paper figurines, each holding a paper figurine. A flagpole or array.
"Set up the formation! Fiery Fish and Dragon Formation!"
