Chapter 278 Grand Reward
The treasure bag was handed over to Kang Shu and registered.
Kang Shu smiled and ran to the next disciple who fell from the sky. Before leaving, he patted Lu Ye on the shoulder.
"Junior brother Lu, I used to hang out with senior brother Zhu and was blinded by lard. I'm sorry for you."
"You must not take it personally. We are walking in a secret realm. It’s not easy to come back alive after a trip.”
"When we settle down, senior brother will host a treat for you!"
After saying that, he turned around and strode away, passing by his former sweetheart Yuan Qing'er.
When Yuan Qing'er saw Kang Shu, her face was filled with tears. She opened her mouth and called out to Senior Brother Kang. Kang Shu seemed not to hear him and left without stopping.
What white moonlight? Sweetheart?
Walking between life and death in a secret realm, if you have the leisure to love someone who is not worthy of love, it is true that you should be kinder to yourself.
Isn’t it good to be alive? Why are you looking for trouble for yourself?
Yuan Qing'er didn't expect Kang Shu to have such an attitude towards her. Her eyes turned red and she immediately started sobbing.
Qian Jinjin was rushing towards Lu Ye at this time, passing by her, and said in disgust.
"Cry, cry, cry, why are you crying?"
"Then Zhu Jian is my Taoist monk, I didn't even cry."
"What's the matter with you crying like this? Who are you crying for?"
"If you really feel sorry for him, and the secret passage is not closed yet, you can still go back and die for love, no one will stop you. "
"Uh..." Yuan Qing'er was yelled at by Qian Jinjin, her face turned red with anxiety, she lowered her head to stop crying, and staggered away.
"Hmph..." Seeing her leaving, Qian Jinjin snorted and muttered, "Bad luck!"
Lu Ye and others saw Qian Jinjin coming and immediately saluted.
"Senior Sister Qian!"
He saw that Qian Jinjin's face was pale and his breath was weak. His cultivation should have dropped from the seventh level to the sixth level of Qi training, otherwise he would not be able to pass through the secret passage safely.
However, after this battle, Qian Jinjin finally used Wu Dao to protect his fellow sect, and the position of the true disciple was now secure.
As long as the elixirs keep up in the future, they will soon be able to break through to the seventh level of Qi training again.
It’s just that I don’t know if there will be a future for Xuanmo Sect.
Qian Jinjin looked unhappy and was wearing an ill-fitting Taoist robe. Lu Ye recognized that it was thrown to her by himself. He must have been busy with other things and had not had time to change it.
"Sister...here you..." Wang Hu took out a cowhide bag from the storage bag and opened it to see that it was filled with blood-colored soil.
“This is the remains of Senior Brother Zhu,” he scratched his head and said, “It was so completely broken that we can only put the soil back in this way.”
“Thank you, Junior Brother!” Qian Jinjin He took the cowhide bag and put it away, his face expressionless.
Wang Hu, Zhang Cunyi has been quite familiar with her for half a month in the secret realm, so she is welcome.
"Junior brothers..." Qian Jinjin looked at everyone with sharp eyes, "The master has ordered all the disciples to explain their itinerary in the secret realm for a few days."
"In addition, if anyone has That Ling Yuan enough information can be considered a great achievement.”
“Don’t think too much about it,” she explained, “After all, nine true disciples of the Xisi Demon Sect died. Someone has robbed two treasures, and there must be an explanation."
"Every family has to ask, as long as you are loyal to the sect, it doesn't matter."
Mo Ruyan. Telling her true words, this inquiry was just a formality.
If Ling Yuan is really a disciple of our sect, then what if Xuanmo Sect will have multiple deputy heads in the future?
Even if you want to give other demon sects some face, just ask.
More than half of our disciples were lost in the secret realm, which is not bad compared to other families, but with so many disciples dying at once, all the surviving disciples are treasures.
As long as the surviving disciples have not stood up to rebel, they are all good disciples of Xuanmo Sect.
As for Qian Jinjin, I don’t even believe that Xuanmo Sect has a fierce man like Ling Yuan Gou hanging around inside.
Her face still hurt.
Wang Hu and Zhang Cunyi passed the test with a few words. Except for the few days before entering the secret realm, they followed the large team led by Qian Jinjin. On the last day, they picked flowers and shoveled corpses in the Wolong Mountains. Pure and innocent.
Shu Chitu was the focus of the interrogation, because among the known disciples of Xuanmo Sect, he was the one who had the most dealings with Ling Yuaneng.
He tremblingly explained how he entered the secret realm, how he was trapped in the mountains, and when he was waiting for death, he ordered his benefactor to come down from the sky and fish him out. After that, he followed Senior Sister Qian with the crowd to avoid the beast tide, and then entered Wolong. In the mountains, he was captured by his benefactor.
The benefactor wanted him to use his earth escape magical power to seize the treasure, but failed, and finally left him behind.
Shu Chitu's legs were trembling, and he was afraid of Qian Jinjin's detailed questioning.
As a result, Qian Jinjin turned directly to Lu Ye.
“Junior Brother Lu, where are you?”
“Huh? I remember I haven’t seen you in the team!”
Lu Ye didn’t panic and used his magic power to squeeze A few tears came out and he complained.
"Senior Sister Qian, Junior Brother, my life is miserable..."
He combined the memories of other innocent ghosts who died in his hands to piece together a story.
Lu Ye said that as soon as he entered the secret realm, he was teleported to the outside of the Wolong Mountains. As a result, he ran into the hands of a sheep demon and was a prisoner for several days.
Fortunately, the goat demon was a vegetarian, so he did not lose his life. He was only kept as a plaything and did not harm him.
When the beast tide broke out a few days later, the sheep demon left him and took his subordinates with him. As the beast tide came out of the mountain, without supervision, he escaped with his life.
He didn't dare to go out of the mountain for fear of running into the returning tide of beasts, so he could only hide in Wolong Mountain and be careful to avoid it everywhere.
On the last day, he ambushed several Xisi Demon Sect disciples who entered the mountains and stole the treasure bag, killing several people.
After some questioning, he found out that the disciples of the Seven Demon Sect were led by a true master and formed a team to go into the mountain. At this time, the secret passage opened, and he hurriedly ran out.
Lu Ye recounted a long list of experiences without a blushing face and a heartbeat.
Anyway, Shu Chitu was not the only unlucky guy who fell into the Wolong Mountains from the beginning, and adding him to the list wouldn’t be too much.
As for the sheep demon who does not eat meat, he is not worried. There are thousands of demons in the world, and there are all kinds of strange things.
Since Qian Jinjin is just going through the motions, he will never ask in detail, as long as he can explain it.
Sure enough, Qian Jinjin nodded and ran directly to the others, walking in a hurry and having no patience at all.
I just lost a man and escaped from a secret realm with a narrow escape. I was so exhausted that I wished I could take a good nap, but unfortunately I was assigned to ask questions.
The work of a true disciple is really not done by humans.
An hour passed in such a mess.
Xuanmo Sect was sorted out by money, and the disciples explained their itinerary in the secret realm and handed over their treasure bags.
The storage bag was also opened and inspected.
The task of checking the storage bag was the responsibility of the four elders who came with Mo Ruyan, Sloppy Tang, Bu Lao Tong, Xiao Huan Xi and Du Tou Tuo.
The four of them looked at the disciples with sharp eyes, looking at everyone as if they were thieves.
Sloppy Tang coughed lightly.
"Disciples, after a trip between life and death in a secret realm, it is not easy for everyone to come back alive. Don't be confused and do things you shouldn't do."
"Enter the secret realm. The master of the former sect has ordered that the spiritual plants, minerals, springs and various monster materials obtained from the secret realm will be recorded and stored in the sect's warehouse for management."
"After they are sold in the future, they will be distributed to you personally. "
"The sect will not covet this thing from you, but it is up to the sect to decide who to sell it to and how to sell it."
"Otherwise, so many spiritual objects appear on the market, the prices will be messed up, and they will not be sold at the high price they deserve. Wouldn't it be a pity?"
"Everyone has handed over the treasure bag, and now we will check the storage If anyone has unclean hands and feet, it’s still too late to regret it.”
Sloppy Tang said this several times, but no one came out, so he waved his hand and all the disciples stepped forward to open the storage bag.
The fourth elder's eyes are as sharp as an eagle, and he doesn't care about the spiritual stone materials in the storage bag, nor the magic weapons stolen from others or even from the same sect. He only makes sure that there are no specialties in the secret realm.
“This magical instrument is very exquisite...”
Sloppy Tang took out a bamboo stick instrument from a disciple's storage bag, and suddenly squeezed it, causing the bamboo stick to break.
It turns out that the inside of this magic weapon is a hollow structure, and a foundation-building herb, the main herb of foundation-building elixir, was immediately exposed inside.
This disciple used a wood-attribute spiritual weapon to press medicinal herbs to emit wood-attribute spiritual power, but he still leaked the secret and was caught.
The disciple immediately collapsed on the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy.
Qian Jinjin stepped forward, sealed his magic gag, tied him up with a rope and threw him aside.
at the same time.
The other three elders also gained something, and several lucky disciples were caught on the spot.
They worked really hard, and they actually secretly collected spiritual plants.
Some are hidden in personal magic weapons, some are buried in body wounds, and some have specially practiced related kung fu, wrapping the spiritual plants in sugar and swallowing them directly in their stomachs.
There are various methods, but the four elders are all casual cultivators, so this kind of flower cultivation cannot be hidden from them.
It can only be said that he was greedy and got himself involved.
These disciples were blocked and locked up, and they would be dealt with by the leader Mo Ruyan after they returned to the top of the mountain.
This situation is not unique to Xuanmo Sect.
Similar situations occur in other magic gates.
It was Lu Ye's turn, and the one who checked him was his former master, Elder Xiao Huanxi.
Xiao Huanxi squinted her eyes and looked at him, with viciousness in her eyes. This disciple had been with her for ten years and had repeatedly escaped her attempts to collect supplements. In the end, he suddenly shined in the sect competition and became an inner disciple, out of control, which made her very unhappy.
She was hoping that Lu Ye would be stupid and hide the secret treasure.
Facing the critical gaze, Lu Ye calmly opened the storage bag. Inside were the bone sword dominoes and some spirit stone pills that he was accustomed to in Xuanmo Sect.
There are also a few ordinary magic weapons stolen from other Demon Sect disciples, and they are stained with blood. After all, the whole set is required for the show.
Little Huanxi checked over and over again for a long time, but couldn't find anything wrong. He could only snort and wave his hand to indicate that he had passed the test.
Lu Ye collected his storage bag and retreated. Next to him, Wang Hu, Zhang Cunyi, and Shu Chitu also passed the test smoothly.
He noticed that even among the disciples who had not checked out the problem, there were some who looked frightened. Although they pretended to be calm, their magic aura was unstable.
There are countless ways to hide objects, and the four elders are not omniscient and omnipotent, but these people are afraid that they will not be able to avoid the sweep of Mo Ruyan's consciousness after returning to the mountain, and something will happen sooner or later.
But this has nothing to do with him.
Looking around, there are many familiar figures missing from the Xuanmo Sect team.
Like Zhu Jian, Yin Xiumei died tragically in the secret realm, Hua Ming was very lucky. As soon as he entered the secret realm, he was stabbed in the back by his lover quietly, but he survived.
In addition, Qi Fangfang and Gu Changqing were also safe and sound.
The team of Xuanmo Sect disciples has withered, less than half of the original number.
The same is true for several other demon sects. For example, the three Yinhun sects in the East and the Ten Thousand Bones Forest are considered good, and about forty or fifty people survived.
The West Fourth Demon Gate is miserable.
Although the Qi brothers of the Blood Shadow Sect died, they had sheltered their fellow sect members, and more than fifty people survived.
The worst thing was that all the brothers and sisters of the Zombie Poison Sect and the King were wiped out, so there were only about twenty disciples of the Zombie Poison Sect who came out alive.
In addition, about thirty people from the Hundred Animals Gate and the Iron Corpse Gate each survived.
There were more than 300 casual cultivators before entering the secret realm. Half of them were killed by locusts before entering the secret realm. Once they entered the secret realm, they were concentrated and dealt with by the Seven Demon Sect disciples. Now, less than 60 people can get out of the secret realm. people.
From this point of view, after going in and out of the secret realm, only about one-third of the Seven Demon Sects and casual cultivators were able to withdraw, which can be said to be a heavy loss.
The time for another stick of incense has passed.
Finally no more disciples emerged from the secret passage in the air.
The secret passage above the head that resembled a purple magic eye began to roll and change. First, the surrounding void began to flicker and twist, and then a huge suction force began to appear in the passage, as if there was a huge monster inside that opened its mouth and sucked in the air.
The hair and corners of the Taoist robes of the approaching Seven Masters were blowing and flying straight up, and they were all sucked towards the passage.
They each flew some distance backwards before they stabilized their bodies.
Under the gaze of everyone.
The big purple eye twisted and circled, collapsing from a regular circle into an oval, a semicircle, and then into a palm-sized irregular shape, and the purple light inside turned into a variety of colors.
Pop!
After a soft sound.
Even the palm-sized ball of light could not stabilize, completely turning into a small variegated dot, and finally disappeared completely.
A gust of wind blew.
The secret passage that had been erected over Black Cave Mountain for ten years disappeared.
The secret realm of the Black Cave is off the track and far away from the human world. There is no overlap between the two worlds. The passage is completely closed and communication is cut off.
The next time the Black Cave Secret Realm opens, I don’t know how many years will pass.
Nowadays, there are many people who have witnessed everything that happens inside and outside the secret realm. I don’t know how many people can survive until the next time the secret realm is opened.
The Seventh Sect Master waited for a long time, but did not wait for the good man from the secret realm who stirred up the storm inside to get enough.
Their consciousness scanned all the disciples who came out of the secret realm and determined that they were all below the sixth level of Qi training.
They fell from the sky helplessly.
Chu Sheng, the head of the Hundred Animals Sect, was the most unwilling. He still had a piece of the Hundred Animals Armor that was missing.
He scratched his head.
“It shouldn’t be?”
“Then did Ling Yuan enough know that he got into a big trouble and huddled in the secret realm and became a tortoise?”
“Even so, then, then Where are the beast armors of our sect? "
Look at me and you, all the leaders can’t figure it out.
Someone glanced at the disciples standing on the ground. Could it be that Ling Yuan Guo changed his appearance and hid in the crowd?
Which disciple is responsible for this?
Behind Ling Yuangou, which old foundation-building fox was supporting him?
Thousands of thoughts flashed through the minds of the seven masters, and each of them said kind words without revealing anything on their faces.
The head of the West Fourth Demon Sect praised the master of the East Three Demon Sect for his skill in training his disciples. The secret realm is the touchstone. With so many disciples who have experienced life and death as the backbone, the East Three Demon Sect will surely prosper in the future.
The head of the Dongsan Demon Sect modestly said that everything was luck, but that the boys had better luck in the secret realm.
The Xisi Demon Sect has a profound foundation, and the occasional missed horse's hoof is nothing. It is just a tiger taking a nap. Regardless of the fewer disciples who survive, the harvest will be rich, which is not comparable to the Xisan Family.
The leaders blew a circle of rainbow farts and reached an agreement in a friendly atmosphere.
Although the secret realm is now closed, the Heikokufang City must continue to open in the future. In addition, each family has suffered losses. In order to prevent foreign enemies from interfering, the seven families must advance and retreat together. The alliance and friendship are unbreakable.
Any foreign enemy who invades any of the Seven Demon Sects will start a war with the Seven Demon Sects at the same time. The Seven Demon Sects are each other's strong backing.
The seventh master said something that he didn't even believe. After a long speech, he said goodbye and each took his disciples away.
Mo Ruyan threw a basket of flowers.
The disciples sat in silence in the basket and were lifted into the air by her.
Lu Ye looks down from high altitude.
Heikokufang City used to be a prosperous place, but now that the secret passage above is closed and left, the underground city is almost deserted, and it is terrifyingly deserted.
Before entering the secret realm, the Seven Demon Sects worked together to clear out a lot of idle people. After entering the secret realm, only fifty or sixty of the three hundred people survived. It's strange that this market can be so lively.
At this time.
A few fast-moving casual cultivators in the city have set up soul-calling flags in front of the cave. White paper money was scattered on the floor. They changed into linen and knelt down in front of the cave to pay homage and cry. It must be someone. Close relatives and friends died in a secret place.
Lu Ye noticed that there was a memorial tablet placed on the altar table by a casual cultivator. One tablet was engraved with the words "Wood Taoist" and the other was engraved with the words "Cao Taoist".
This should be a member of the Mucao group. The secret realm was closed and the two leaders of Mucao had not come out. They must have been folded inside, so they put the memorial tablet and cried bitterly.
The cry faintly reached to the sky.
Lu Ye withdrew his gaze and stopped watching.
This is cultivation, a cruel journey, a narrow escape from death.
The incense stick time has passed.
The flower basket slowly fell from the sky and reached the top of Xuanmomen Mountain at Yingchui Peak.
"Senior sister..." Wu Feng had already come up to him with four inner disciples, looking anxious.
He has been having a hard time in the past half month.
The entire sect was mobilized, and almost all the disciples and servants followed Mo Ruyan.
He led four inner disciples to guard the mountain gate, guarding the formation day and night, not daring to move for fear of being robbed by outsiders.
Even though he was not far from the secret realm of the Black Cave, he did not dare to move lightly.
Guarding the formation board, not leaving the main gate or taking a step toward the second door, looking at the secret passage dozens of miles away, he wanted to see through it.
Now that Mo Ruyan is back, these torturous days are finally over.
"How come you only survived so little?" Wu Feng took a breath of air when he saw the remaining people in the flower basket.
"Deputy Leader Wu..." Xiao Huanxi chuckled.
“Our Xuanmo Sect has relatively few deaths, but you haven’t seen that other demon sects, especially the Zombie Poison Sect, are almost dead!”
"We won't lose this time."
Wu Feng's expression softened after hearing this.
"Disciples..." Mo Ruyan turned around and lectured to the disciples, "You all have made great achievements by fighting bloody battles for the sect in the secret realm."
"The sect must not I will be indebted to everyone.”
“For the trip to the secret realm, the outer disciples will record fifty great merits, and the inner disciples will record one hundred great merits. They can spend whatever they want within this range.”
"All the healing medicines and elixirs in Wenxin Tower are up to you to choose."
"Damaged magical instruments can also be replaced. If you want to repair the magical artifacts, you can also register them for future use."
“If you want to change to powerful skills, you can follow me.”
“You have been fighting for half a day and you are tired, so just disperse!”
“The next three days will be Cancel the morning classes, there is no big task, you just need to recover your strength.”
All the disciples were overjoyed when they heard this, and immediately bowed and obeyed, with a lot of thanks.
The smile on Mo Ruyan's face dropped, and his stern eyes swept across the corner of the field.
There were five disciples standing there, their bodies stooped like quails, their heads lowered, trying to reduce their sense of presence.
It was among the few people who secretly hid the spiritual plants that they had fought with Lu Ye in the gate competition.
