Chapter 199 Secret, Thousand Years Grass [Subscribe]

Shock!

How dare the Dragon Transformation Sect do such a thing!

It’s simply a matter of outrage between humans and gods!

After hearing what Lu Ran said, Zhou Chun's expression changed drastically, with shock and anger all over his face.

This is much more infuriating than simply hearing a few years ago that the Hualong Sect had defected to the Jiaolong Clan and became a vassal of the Jiaolong Clan.

Even the Corpse Demon Cult, which sacrificed all of its own ancestors to turn them into refined corpses, is far less infuriating than the Dragon Transformation Cult.

After all, those people in the Corpse Demon Sect knew about this rule after they joined the sect.

If they really don't want to do this, they can also commit suicide outside. There are many ways to prevent themselves from becoming a refined corpse after death.

However, the Dragon Transformation Cult's practice of feeding monsters with humans is forced, and it is also aiding the enemies of the human race!

No matter how bad the Corpse Demon Cult is, they are still a real human force and will protect the interests of the human race.

However, the Hualong Sect is a complete traitor and a cruel and evil demon!

"So Senior Lu, your master died together with that fourth-order upper-grade red fire dragon because he didn't want to become its food?"

Zhou Chun looked at Lu Ran with a gloomy face and asked.

When he first heard about the scandal of the Red Dragon Hall of the Hualong Sect from Lu Ran, he was curious about the reason why the Red Dragon Hall's chief elder would do such a drastic thing.

Now he finally knew the answer!

As expected, Lu Ran nodded slightly and said in a heavy tone, "That's right, Master was unwilling to see his thousand years of hard training turned into food for a beast, so he chose to die with it out of anger!"

After saying this, he sighed: "Think about my master, he is also a natural talent, he cultivated to the late stage of the golden elixir when he was over 700 years old, and he is expected to form a baby!"

“But because that Scarlet Fire Dragon had also reached the point of breakthrough, the Dragon Transformation Sect’s leader and several deputy leaders decided to abandon their master and help that beast succeed!”

"How pathetic and ridiculous! How pathetic and ridiculous!"

The words were full of indignation and grief.

When Zhou Chun heard this, his expression changed slightly and he was moved.

Just from Lu Ran's words, he could imagine the situation of the Red Dragon Hall's grand elder at that time.

After eight hundred years of hard practice, he is about to reach the Nascent Soul stage, which is the highest realm that most cultivators in this world can pursue.

However, at this moment, he found out that he was just a "human pill" raised by the sect's top leaders and the Jiaolong clan, and was just food for raising an animal!

What a huge blow this will be!
Zhou Chun asked himself, if he were in their shoes, he would probably be able to do anything!

But he soon seemed to have thought of something and suddenly asked, "Why didn't your master spread the news at that time? As long as the news spreads and the other elders and guardians of the Hualong Sect know about it, they will definitely rise up in rebellion!"

“Impossible!”

"When the leader and deputy leader of the Hualong Sect decided to sacrifice Master, they arranged for a deputy leader to hold Master hostage. Master had no chance to spread the news!"

"If Master hadn't sensed something was wrong before and left a clone by my side with his secret technique, I wouldn't have known about this!"

When Lu Ran came to this point, he shook his head and said, "Besides, even if we tell the elders and guardians about this, it won't have as much effect as you think. Many of them don't even have the resources to become a fourth-level dragon and break through to the fifth level. There's no need to consider this before their lives end!"

"Besides, even if they knew, what would happen? With the restriction of the Dragon Soul Heart Seed, anyone who dares to openly betray the sect will seek his own death!"

As the saying goes, it is better to live a miserable life than to die!

For the guardians and elders of the Dragon Transformation Sect who have been planted with the "Dragon Soul Heart Seed", even if they know that they may be fed to the dragons as food for their breakthrough in the future, I am afraid that few of them would dare to stand up and resist immediately.

So what Lu Ran said was not without reason.

But Zhou Chun knew that even if announcing this matter could not achieve the goal of making the elders and guardians of the Hualong Sect betray their sect, it would definitely alienate them and make them no longer loyal to the sect!
Therefore, the effect of this news alone can be said to be no less than adding ten Jindan-stage cultivators to Jingguo's side.

"Senior Lu, this news is indeed very important. If it is true, then there is great hope for overthrowing the Hualong Sect!"

Zhou Chun nodded repeatedly, feeling very satisfied with the secret Lu Ran told him.

Then he patted the storage bag on his waist, took out the jade slip and handed it to Lu Ran.

"This jade slip contains a method to help Senior Lu solve the hidden danger of losing control. Senior Lu, you can take a look at it first. If you think it is feasible, we can proceed with the subsequent transaction."

After hearing what he said, Lu Ran hurriedly took the jade slip and began to examine it.

Zhou Chun waited for almost an hour before he looked up and nodded slightly, saying, "Although I haven't verified it myself, I really can't see any mistakes in it. You can give it a try!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun immediately said, "I have some elixirs that Senior Qing Weizi prepared for Senior Lu. They can also help you suppress the outbreak of hidden dangers. Do you have any secrets about the Hualong Sect that you can exchange with me?"

"Of course!"

Lu Ran's eyes lit up, and he immediately told another secret.

"Although Master Lu died, he also learned how the leader and deputy leader of the Hualong Sect appeared."

"According to Master, those deputy leaders are also the beneficiaries of the compromise between the Jiaolong Clan and the Hualong Cult."

"In order to avoid being influenced and controlled by the dragon, they will use a secret method to transform the foundation of the "Secret of Dragon Transformation" they practice before forming an infant, and replace it with a fourth-level dragon from the dragon clan that has no hope of reaching the fifth level."

“If they can successfully form a fetus, they will use the dragon blood, inner elixir, and dragon soul of the fourth-level dragon as nutrients to cultivate the fifth level of the Secret of Dragon Transformation!”

"It is precisely because of this that the Jiaolong Clan has very strict control over the number of Yuanying-stage cultivators in the Hualong Cult. They must first help the Jiaolong Clan cultivate a fifth-order Jiaolong before they can allow any Jindan-stage cultivator of the Hualong Cult to successfully form a Nascent Soul!"

“Any dragon that successfully breaks through to the fifth level in the Dragon Transformation Sect will terminate the contract with the Sect Leader and Deputy Sect Leader, and either return to the Dragon Clan’s base camp, or continue to stay in the Dragon Transformation Sect and eat people!”

After Lu Ran finished speaking, he saw Zhou Chun's mouth was open in shock, his face full of shock.

Zhou Chun had asked Taoist Mingxia before how the leader and deputy leader of the Dragon Transformation Sect got rid of the hidden danger of the "Secret of Dragon Transformation" being controlled by the dragon.

But even Taoist Mingxia had no idea about this at the time.

Now Zhou Chun finally knew the answer.

It turns out the answer is this!

This seems to explain why the Tonghua Dragon Cult wants to completely join the Jiaolong clan.

After all, only by joining the Jiaolong clan can they obtain massive resources that none of the other Jingguo factions can possess, and quickly expand the strength of their sect.

Only the Jiaolong Clan could provide so many fourth-order Jiaolongs for the leaders and vice-leaders to practice. If they did not join the Jiaolong Clan, they would not only face threats from the various factions of the Jingguo Clan, but also be liquidated by the Jiaolong Clan.

After all, the Jiaolong clan will not sit idly by and watch a declining Dragon Transformation Sect continue to enslave and kill Jiaolongs!

It’s a pity for those Dragon Transformation Sect monks who died in the mouth of the dragon.

They had devoted their entire lives to the Hualong Sect, but when they grew old and disabled, they were ruthlessly abandoned by the sect and fed to the dragons as fodder!
"How about it? This secret can be exchanged for the elixir in your hand?"

Lu Ran's words again awakened Zhou Chun from his contemplation.

He looked at the ugly head opposite him and immediately replied, "No problem, of course."

After saying that, he handed the pill that Taoist Mingxia gave him to Lu Ran.

After Lu Ran took the pill, Zhou Chun continued, "The information provided by Senior Lu this time is of great value. I need to go back and explain it to Senior Mingxia immediately. Let's end the transaction here first!"

"That's fine. I can go back and test the secret technique in the jade slip first."

Lu Ran nodded and agreed readily.

So Zhou Chun raised his hand and pointed at the Xuanguan Liuying Mirror in the air, then put the magic weapon into his storage bag.

At this time, he looked at Lu Ran with a bitter smile and said, "Senior Lu, please forgive me. The secret you revealed is really too important. Senior Qing Weizi dare not completely listen to my one-sided words."

Hearing his words, Lu Ran couldn't help but grin, then looked at him meaningfully and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhou, do you have anything else to say?"

Zhou Chun knew that he had seen through his thoughts, so he didn't hesitate to bow and said, "Senior, please understand. I and my family are very interested in the spiritual objects that you mentioned to help open up the Purple Mansion and build the foundation. We are also willing to pay a price to exchange them with you!"

"In addition, I would like to learn from you the secret technique of transferring the foundation of the Dragon Transformation Secret, as well as the method of deciphering the Dragon Transformation Sect's secret foil!"

When Lu Ran heard what Zhou Chun said before, he still had a look of surprise.

But after hearing Zhou Chun's next words, his eyes narrowed and he looked at Zhou Chun with surprise.

He asked repeatedly, "Why do you want to transform the basic secret technique of "Dragon Transformation Secret"? Can you find another dragon to draw blood from?"

"And why did you want to decipher the secret formula of the Dragon Transformation Sect? Did you get the secret formula related to the core inheritance from the Dragon Transformation Sect?"

Zhou Chun didn't dare to tell the truth this time.

He immediately replied, "There are also cultivators in Jingguo who have tamed dragons as spiritual pets. I am thinking that if I really cannot resolve the hidden dangers left by my own practice of the "Secret of Dragon Transformation", it would be better to transfer my foundation to another dragon. That would be much better than being controlled by the Dragon Transformation Cult all the time!"

"As for the secret foil of the Dragon Transformation Sect, my family does have a piece. It was obtained from the remains of a Dragon Transformation Sect monk who lived more than 800 years ago, and it has never been solved!"

His half-true, half-false answer made Lu Ran narrow his eyes.

After hesitating for a while, he nodded and said, "Okay, I can tell you the secret technique to transform the foundation of the "Dragon Transformation Secret", but in exchange, you have to bring the secret foil collected by your family to me for personal deciphering!"

Zhou Chun was delighted when he heard this, and immediately nodded and said, "No problem, I totally agree with this condition!"

Then he looked at Lu Ran and said, "Then Senior Lu, can you tell me how you would be willing to tell me the spiritual object that can help cultivators open up the purple palace and build the foundation?"

"I have a piece of [Silver Star Soul Jade] in my hand that can help open up the Purple Palace. I also know the location of a Yuan-building Fruit Tree!"

At this point, Lu Ran said in a low voice: "If you want these two items, you must help me take the [Thousand Years Grass] guarded by a third-level upper-grade demon beast, the Green Flame Pigeon!"

"What? Senior Lu, you actually know where to find the Thousand Years Grass!"

Zhou Chun looked at Lu Ran in shock, stunned by what he said.

To be honest, if Zhou Chun had not read so many books and gained a lot of knowledge in the past year and a half, he might not have known what kind of magical medicine [Thousand Years Grass] was.

But now he just knew it.

Speaking of the spiritual herb [Thousand-Year Grass], it is extremely extraordinary.

Its greatest effect on immortal cultivators or living beings is to prolong their lifespan.

It is said that this magical herb grows for a hundred years and that taking it can increase a living being's lifespan by one year, and up to a thousand years!
This kind of life-extending item has infinite appeal to any cultivator.

Therefore, even those [Thousand-Year Grass] that are only a few hundred years old are often sold at a very high price.

Some Purple Mansion Stage cultivators, Golden Core Stage cultivators, and even Nascent Soul Stage cultivators whose lifespans are approaching the end of their lives will purchase this kind of life-extending spiritual object at any cost to extend their own lifespans, even if it is only for a few more years!
After all, money is something external to our body that we cannot bring with us when we are born and cannot take with us when we die.

If money can be used to buy longevity, no high-level monk would be stingy with money.

"I do know the location of a Thousand-Year-Old Grass, but it is only a Thousand-Year-Old Grass that is less than two thousand years old. The life-extending effect it provides is far less than that of a Silver Star Soul Jade and a Yuan-Building Fruit Tree for your family!"

Lu Ran looked at Zhou Chun and said with a slightly nervous look in his eyes.

He also knew that the life-extending elixir like [Thousand Years Grass] must not be known to a powerful force like Qinglian Temple, otherwise even a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage might not be able to resist coming to capture him and search his soul.

After all, even if the [Thousand Years Grass] is less than two thousand years old, it can extend one's life by more than ten years!

If he didn't know that he alone could not be a match for the third-grade top-grade monster, the Green Flame Pigeon, he would never tell this news to anyone else.

"But that is the Thousand-Year Grass! Senior Lu, you must know how valuable this thing is!"

Zhou Chun looked at Lu Ran, who had a nervous expression on his face. His tone seemed a little erratic, and he was very agitated.

"Yes, the value of [Thousand Years Grass] is indeed very high, but does your Zhou family have a Jindan-stage cultivator? If there is no Jindan-stage cultivator, the value of this thing is definitely not comparable to the Yuan-building Fruit Tree that can continuously produce fruits to assist people in building their foundations, or the [Silver Star Soul Jade] that can increase a person's success rate in opening up the Purple Palace by 10% or 20%!"

Lu Ran spoke loudly in a high-pitched voice, trying to prove that he didn't take any advantage.

But the louder he shouted, the more Zhou Chun saw his inner weakness.

He smiled and said, "Don't worry, Senior Lu. I will definitely not tell Qinglian Temple about the [Thousand Years Grass]."

Just this one sentence made Lu Ran's face change drastically, as Zhou Chun instantly hit the soft spot in his heart.

Zhou Chun did not wait for his reply and continued, "However, if we exchange the [Thousand Years Grass] for a piece of [Silver Star Soul Jade] and a Yuan Building Fruit Tree, it would be a loss for our Zhou family. If Senior Lu is willing to add some rare treasures from the waters, then it would be almost enough!"

Hearing his words, Lu Ran, whose expression had changed greatly, immediately showed a look of relief, and hurriedly shouted: "That's easy, as long as you help me get the [Thousand Years Grass], I can choose ten of the various aquatic treasures in my collection!"

"Then it's settled. After Zhou has settled the matter with Qinglian Temple, I will find a way to discuss this matter with Senior Lu in detail!"

Zhou Chun smiled and agreed with a smile on his face.
