Chapter 426 Giant Rock Sect
Yunzhou, the northern border.
“Shua~~~”
With the sound of falling leaves, a figure quickly disappeared into the forest. Soon after, the forbidden power fluctuated, and a space shrouded in dense leaves and shrubs disappeared, replaced by a cave that had been sealed in dust for many years.
Ning Daoran wore a green shirt, carrying an Autumn Water Sword behind his back, and stepped into the cave.
Everything is exactly the same as it was arranged back then. The damaged ancient teleportation array is as before. There is no fluctuation in the array's power and it is temporarily abandoned.
Ning Daoran quickly hit dozens of restrictions and continued to isolate the room from the world. Then he took out a re-refined teleportation column and some materials to repair the formation from the storage bag.
Next, he became busy around the ancient teleportation array, knocking, constantly replacing and repairing the array. After three full days, the array was finally repaired.
"Almost."
He groaned, took out three middle-grade spiritual stones and embedded them into the formation, and then immediately fired a few spells!
"Boom~~~"
A powerful shock wave rose into the sky from the formation, and then slowly spread out, and the formation became usable again.
Ning Daoran smiled slightly, then raised his hand and threw out a second-class paper man, saying: "After I teleport, you remove the teleportation stone in the southeast corner and hide it to prevent others from using this teleportation array. Leave it to me." What excuse?”
B and other paper figures nodded heavily.
Ning Daoran turned around and looked at the world outside, then turned and walked into the teleportation array, never looking back.
……
"Boom——"
Amidst the loud noise, Ning Daoran's body was wrapped in thousands of rays of light and soared into the sky. In a very short period of dizziness, he only felt as if his body was being pulled away inch by inch. After a few breaths, his body sank. , and has already landed in another extremely simple teleportation array.
The other end of the ancient teleportation array was actually hidden in a completely enclosed cave. When Ning Daoran released his spiritual consciousness to explore, he found that there was a river between the cave and the outside world. He needed to pass through the river before he could go to the outside world.
It's quite secretive, no wonder it hasn't been discovered for so many years.
He quickly cast dozens of restraints to hide the teleportation array, and then used his water escape technique to plunge into the river. After a few dozen breaths, he jumped out of the river and stepped on a dead tree to swim down the river.
"This place..."
Ning Daoran frowned. Currently, he didn't know where this place was in the Sangyu Kingdom.
Not long after, an old fishing man appeared on the riverside. The old man was very leisurely. While fishing, there was a cooking utensil beside him, and he was boiling a pot of fragrant tea.
Ning Daoran understood with one glance that this old man was a ninth-level Qi-refining monk. In the world of immortality, he was nothing more than an ant, but to the mortals in the mortal world, he was an expert with hands and eyes that could reach the sky.
"This fellow Taoist."
Ning Daoran stepped on the dead wood, clasped his fists and smiled: "I am a traveling monk, and I am not familiar with this place. May I ask my friend where is this place? In which state of Sangyu country is it located?"
"Oh?"
The old fishing man didn't take it seriously at first, but after careful sensing, he noticed that there was actually a golden elixir hidden in Ning Daoran's body. The old man suddenly looked stern, put down the fishing rod in a hurry, and clasped his fists respectfully: "Senior, this is Qinghua County. , is located in Quzhou in the west of Sangyu Kingdom. I don’t know if the seniors have anything else to ask, but the juniors will surely tell you everything.”
"Thank you. That's all I want to ask you."
Ning Daoran smiled happily and continued to drive the dead wood down the river.
The old man bowed his hands and saluted, and did not resume fishing until Ning Daoran's figure disappeared. The moment he picked up the fishing rod, he felt extremely excited and happy. He had actually spoken to Jindan Qi Daxiu in this life, and his life was not in vain!
……
On top of the dead wood, Ning Daoran took out the map he had prepared long ago. After confirming the location, he decided to go down the river to understand the local customs first and integrate into the Sangyu Kingdom as soon as possible to avoid exposing any flaws.
So, it floated on the dead wood for half a month.
Within half a month, the dragon demon stake was erected on the dead wood, and he continued to hone his cultivation of the Dragon Demon Heart Sutra.
But he soon discovered that the twenty-level Dragon Demon Heart Sutra seemed to have reached a bottleneck. No matter how hard he worked to refine his body, the progress in the Dragon Demon Heart Sutra was extremely small, almost to the point of being negligible.
This is not possible!
He frowned. The Dragon Demon Heart Sutra was his foundation in martial arts. He had to reach the twenty-fifth level, at least equaling Shen Luoyan.
But at this moment, wisps of green smoke appeared not far from the river, and there was the sound of crying.
"Huh?"
Ning Daoran frowned, then stepped lightly on the dead wood, and finally left the boundary where he had lived for half a month, and landed on the river bank. He walked slowly forward, and saw a tomb beside the river. A young man was kneeling in front of the grave, burning paper and crying sadly.
"Father, mother, this child is incompetent. Back then you spent all your wealth to send me to the sect. Now I have been in the sect for more than ten years, but I have not learned any skills..."
"The child is stupid in nature, and those magical techniques... are really like a book from heaven, and I can't understand them at all..."
The more he cried, the sadder he became, and said: "Now the child himself has contracted a strange disease. Soon, he will go to the underworld road to accompany his father and mother. Please walk slower and remember to wait for the child..."
Ning Daoran's consciousness swept away, and he suddenly saw extremely clearly.
This young man is at the fourth level of Qi Refining, and his aptitude is indeed dull according to his age. Moreover, his arms and half of his face are covered with fish-scale skin, which is extremely strong, like stone.
It is indeed a strange disease! Ning Daoran suddenly had an idea in his mind, and floated out, leaving his breath at the seventh level of Qi refining, which happened to be in the late stage of Qi refining. He instantly transformed into a green young man and said: "This fellow Taoist, I definitely didn't do this on purpose." I overheard what you were saying, and I just happened to be passing by. Can I take a look at your strange disease? ”
"Huh?"
The young man was slightly startled, but he quickly discovered that Ning Daoran was in a higher realm than himself and was actually a late-stage Qi refining person. He gritted his teeth and said: "This fellow Taoist...you are..."
"I, Ning Qiuhan, am a casual cultivator. I have followed my master to practice Taoism and study medicine for many years. I have a very superficial understanding of medical skills and am somewhat interested in my fellow Taoist's strange illnesses. I wonder if I can help my fellow Taoist find a cure. See?”
“It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Ning!”
The young man showed an excited expression and said: "I, Zheng Ting, am a disciple of the Giant Rock Sect in the nearby area. Can this stone scale syndrome be really cured by fellow Taoists? It's not just me, many senior brothers and sisters have also contracted this strange disease. I have a bad headache.”
"Let's take a look first. It's hard to say whether it can be cured."
"Okay!"
Probably because they were of the same age, Zheng Ting quickly rolled up his sleeves and exposed half of his arm covered by fish-like stone skin. He bared his teeth and said with a smile: "The skin infected by the strange disease has no feeling. Sometimes I feel a little itchy, and I want to cut off the skin on my entire arm, but I just can’t let go of this hand, otherwise it will really be cut off.”
Ning Daoran smiled slightly.

He raised a finger and placed it on the stone skin. He immediately felt a wisp of evil power pouring into his finger. He frowned and silently ran the Evergreen Secret Art to quickly crush the evil power. Jue cooperates with the golden elixir spiritual consciousness to detect the lesions in the texture.
After a long time, he pondered and came to some preliminary conclusions.
It seems that this young man has really encountered an evil spirit. This stone scale disease is not a strange disease at all, but an evil spirit attached to the human body, constantly sucking the young man's vitality and flesh and blood essence, which can last up to ten years. In twenty years, or as short as three to five years, this young man's energy will definitely be sucked dry.
Judging from what he said, there are many disciples in the Giant Rock Sect who also suffer from stone scale disease, which means that the evil spirit is probably hiding in the Giant Rock Sect, or at least the evil spirit nearby.
"Friend Dao Zheng."
Ning Daoran frowned and said: "It's impossible to determine the real cause of this disease in the next moment. It may be related to the water you drink, the food you eat, or the environment you live in. I wonder if Ning can... Fellow Taoist, go up the mountain and go to Guizong to investigate, maybe you can really cure this stone scale syndrome.”
"Really?"
Zheng Ting was overjoyed: "If fellow Taoist can really cure stone scale disease, it will be a blessing to our Giant Rock Sect. I will take fellow Taoist back to the sect immediately!"
"Okay!"
Ning Daoran nodded and smiled.
When I first arrived, I went to the Giant Rock Sect firstly to familiarize myself with the customs of the local immortal world, secondly to kill evil spirits and accumulate merit, and thirdly to accumulate some materials. These evil spirits and their like are basically spirits that have been around for many years, so they are excellent material.
……
So, half a day later.
In the evening, an ancient mountain gate lies in front of you.
Not to mention how majestic it was, it looked like a second-rate sect at a glance. The person guarding the mountain gate was a ninth-level Qi Refiner. Zheng Ting talked hard and finally stuffed a spiritual stone into it, so Ning Daoran was able to enter the mountain gate.
Afterwards, Zheng Ting arranged meals.
It was extremely simple, with a pot of rice steamed and a two-kilogram big carp burned. However, Zheng Ting was very hospitable and specially grabbed a small handful of spiritual rice and threw it into the ordinary rice. Ning Daoran naturally noticed these details. In eyes.
After the meal, Zheng Ting's stone scale disease was treated by directly using Changqing Jue to dispel the power of evil spirits and feed it back with vitality. After a few hours, Zheng Ting's stone scale syndrome showed signs of improvement!
"Friend Daoist Ning!"
He was very excited: "My strange disease seems to be getting better, I will tell the sect master right now!"
Ning Daoran nodded happily.
……
In the early morning, when it was just dawn.
When Ning Daoran was sitting under Zheng Ting's dilapidated house meditating, he heard Zheng Ting's voice from a distance: "Sect Master, Brother Ning is really a master of rejuvenation. Just by stretching out his hand, he cured my disease." Stone scale disease! ”
"Yeah."
A rather old voice came: "Zheng Ting, don't worry, if he really has the ability to cure stone scale syndrome, our Giant Rock Sect will never treat him badly!"
"Yes, great!"
Zheng Ting was very enthusiastic and happy for Brother Ning.
However, just after pushing the door open, the sect leader actually raised his hand, and a golden rope swept away like a spiritual snake, instantly tying Ning Daoran under the eaves tightly!
"How dare you, this junior, come to our Giant Rock Sect to deceive and kidnap you!"
The sect master with late-stage foundation-building cultivation raised his hand and lifted Ning Daoran up, and said in a cold voice: "I will hand you over to Elder Shi now!"
"Ah!?"
Zheng Ting was horrified and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to plead for mercy.
Ning Daoran was in the air, speechless. Everything seemed to be similar to what he had guessed.
