Immortal Road.

"!!!"

True Lord Xuehe had never expected that the envoy from the holy land in front of him would attack as he said, without any warning at all.

A hexagonal light cage dropped from the sky and surrounded him on all sides.

Feeling the extreme threat, he quickly spread out the blood mist, and a bulging blood bag was floating behind him, which seemed to be some kind of Dharma image.

But the next moment, the spiritual treasure soul-sucking rope wrapped around him like a poisonous snake, wrapping him up like a rice dumpling.

Although his body was not affected, his soul had been tied up!

Lin Shan's cultivation in the late stage of soul infant was far superior to his. With just one stirrup of the iron chain, his soul was pulled out of his body, and he didn't even have the strength to resist.

He wanted to say something with a look of horror, but found that there was no sound at all. Only his body stood there stupidly, looking confused and helpless.

shuh~
Both the soul and the body were swept away, leaving no trace at the scene.

However, Lin Shan did not leave, but waited here quietly.

After a stick of incense.

A green light flashed in the distance, and a spell was cast from afar to investigate this side, as if it was startled by the brief fight just now.

"Green ivy fairy, if you're here, why are you being so sneaky?"

The green light stopped in the distance, obviously on guard, and did not come closer.

"It is you who is sneaking around, right? Where is Yin Wujiu? Where is he hiding? Are you the foreign aid he invited?"

Seeing her suspicious behavior, Lin Shan couldn't help but laugh and shook his head, then he jumped into the night.

"Ludong and Ludongnan will be handed over to you for the time being. If anyone embarrasses you, you can report the name of my Taixuan Holy Land."

"Taixuan Holy Land?"

Luoluo murmured to herself and was about to ask that person what he meant, but she found that the other person had disappeared. At the same time, the Blood River True Lord Yin Wujiu also disappeared.

Jiangning City.

Lin Shan went all the way north and returned here again.

I was planning to just pass by it quickly, but I inexplicably remembered that when True Lord Xingyun was fighting with True Lord Chihuan, he actually used a kind of astrological magic that I had never seen before!
It should have been from Yuxing’s secret treasure. After this person inherited the star power, he went to the other side to get it early.

His heart moved slightly, and he decided to stop here.

Secretly summoned True Lord Xingyun to the outside of the city.

"You are."

True Lord Xingyun did not recognize Lin Shan, especially after he used the Zodiac Spirit Cloud to cover himself, he was very alert and cautious.

"Take it!"

The other side threw a storage bag to him.

"This is the reward the last messenger promised you."

When True Lord Xingyun saw it, he found that there were some cultivation resources and rare treasures inside, which could be really useful to him!

His expression lightened up immediately, and he asked hesitantly:
"You too, fellow Taoist"

"I am the new envoy sent by the Holy Land to rotate. The original envoy has completed his mission and returned. From now on, I will be in charge of the affairs of the State of Lu."

Lin Shan lied without thinking, fooling people. By the way, he took out his newly acquired Taixuan Holy Land token and waved it in front of his eyes.

True Lord Xingyun had no doubts and could not guess no matter how hard he tried that the envoy from the holy land in front of him was a fake. After all, the cultivation resources that the other party had just given him were real and there was no difference from what the previous envoy had given him.

Little did they know that it was Lin Shan who took it out from Qin Shen’s storage space, and was just borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha.

But he couldn't help but mutter in his heart that the previous envoy was able to return to report because of his hard work. He wondered what the new envoy was like, whether he was easy to get along with, and whether he was generous.

"Haha, nice to meet you, new envoy. I have long been fascinated by our holy land. I am sincere and will find a way to accomplish any mission you issue!"

He quickly expressed his opinion. As the saying goes, one should not hit a smiling person. Anyway, doing odd jobs for the Holy Land to earn some cultivation resources is not bad.
Lin Shan was very satisfied with this man's awareness, and his words became more fluent. He asked gently:
"When I came here, I heard about you from the previous messenger. It is said that Fellow Daoist Xingyun had been to the Yuxing Secret Treasure. I wonder if it is true or not?"

"Yes, there have been some, but they were minor incidents."

True Lord Xingyun is very humble, and his tone of voice is completely different from that of the previous True Lord Xuehe. It is true that casual cultivators know how to adapt to the times.

The last guy dared to threaten me. He really doesn't know how to write the word death.

"Well, I have also cultivated a set of star power techniques, but I am lacking a suitable star magic skill. I wonder if you have a suitable one. I can exchange with you."

Lin Shan stared at him with scorching eyes, which made Master Xingyun feel scared.

"Yes, of course. If you need it, please take it. Consider it a favor to me!"

A total of three jade slips were handed over.

Lin Shan looked at them one by one and found that they were all minor magical skills. He was slightly disappointed and said meaningfully:

"These are enough for the Jindan stage, but they are no longer effective for the late Yuanying stage. Daoist friend should have a sect-suppressing magical power, right? Can you lend it to me to see?"

"Uh this."

True Lord Xingyun looked embarrassed, asking for someone else's hidden secret skill. Was this new messenger serious?

Are you digging my roots right after you come here?
I have never seen such a domineering person!

"Don't worry, if you need anything, this messenger will not treat you unfairly. We will exchange at equal value."

Lin Shan tried his best to soften his tone and express his sincerity.

After hearing this, True Lord Xingyun was unsure of his attitude, so he simply made a request carefully.

"Now, I am still lacking a magical treasure."

"."

Both of them were silent for a while.

A moment of embarrassment.

Lin Shan took the lead in breaking the deadlock:

"Fellow Daoist, spiritual treasures are very rare in the outside world. One astrology magic power is not even enough to match them. I can exchange other sect-protecting magic powers with you, or ancient treasures are also fine. I have all kinds of them."

When True Lord Xingyun saw the rise and fall of the other party's aura in the late Nascent Soul stage, he felt a chill on his back and broke into a cold sweat. He regretted what he had just said.

In fact, I didn't want to change it, I just wanted the other party to give up the idea, but I didn't expect that the other party looked so rich.

Fortunately, the new envoy did not take things too seriously and simply carefully put forward a bunch of conditions.

"My original name was Chi Wei Tang Zhu. I was in the Jindan stage and specialized in fire. Later, I switched to star power and became a little slack. I got a fire-related technique from Chi Huan Zhen Jun, but it has many requirements and restrictions. I don't have the corresponding magical powers and ancient treasures, so."

"Small things."

Lin Shan nodded to show that he understood.

He immediately took out a bunch of objects and placed them in a row. They were dazzling and all emitted the scalding residual heat of fire!

"I have three fire-related skills here: The Red Sun Nine Tribulations Sutra, The Vermillion Bird Flame Secret, and The Prairie Fire Hundred Meridians Skill. They can all lead directly to the late Nascent Soul stage."

"Two fire-attributed sect-defending magical powers: 'Prison of Fire' and 'Flying Fire Crow'. Do you think they are suitable?"

"More than 20 ancient fire treasures, including swords, spears, halberds, bells, furnaces, tripods and pillars. You can choose whatever you want!"

Between heaven and earth, the surging fire spiritual energy suddenly surged with joy, attracted by so many fire treasures, and even caused some strange phenomena!

True Lord Xingyun’s eyes widened!
My breathing started to quicken.

He knew that people from the Holy Land were very wealthy, but he never knew they were this wealthy! He had originally thought of shirking his responsibility, after all, his astrology skills were his most valuable skills, so how could he possibly give them to others? But after seeing Lin Shan take out so many things, his mind was immediately shaken.
It’s not that I have no bottom line, it’s just that this guy touched my heart.

He rubbed his hands nervously and said, "Are these all for me?"

"One of the three, take your pick."

Lin Shan's face was calm. Although he had destroyed many sects and confiscated a large amount of treasure, he was not doing charity.

"If your astrology skills satisfy me, Gu Bao can give you two more. This is negotiable."

He is gradually increasing the temptation.

True Lord Xingyun is indeed moved!

His original hesitation was immediately thrown out of his mind, and he hurriedly explained to the envoy from the holy land the power of his astrological magic.

As he was talking, he even demonstrated it in front of others.

Lin Shan had seen the power he used to kill True Lord Chi Huan, and knew that this magical power was very suitable for him. He was too lazy to waste time and directly asked him for the inheritance.

Xingyun Zhenjun looked embarrassed:
"The inheritance item of this magical power was used up by me in the secret collection of Yuxing a long time ago. However, after a hundred years, I have cultivated the magical power seed and can make another inheritance jade slip myself!"

Lin Shan frowned:
"how long it takes?"

"I estimate that about five years."

The creation of a sect-protecting magical power inheritance is indeed a project that cannot be underestimated. If it were not for the sect's orthodoxy, how precious would the time of a Nascent Soul cultivator be? How could he possibly waste it on this?
But think about it, in five years, earning a matching Nascent Soul stage technique, a fire-related magical power, and three ancient fire-related treasures is still a huge profit!
Where can I find such a good deal?

Therefore, True Lord Xingyun was very motivated, fearing that the envoys from the holy land would be dissatisfied.

Lin Shan thought about it and agreed for the time being.

It doesn't really matter whether this guy is killed or not. The main thing is to get the astrological power from himself. If he really does his job well, it may not be a bad idea to leave a way out for him in the future. It can also maintain the illusion of the current layout of Taixuan Holy Land in Lu State.

"Okay, five years is five years. I'll wait for you."

By the way, he picked up an ancient snake-shaped treasure and gave it to this person.

"This ancient treasure will be used as a deposit. I will not assign you any tasks for the time being. Just focus on making the inheritance jade slip. I will come back to inspect the goods in five years. If there is no problem, I will give you the rest."

True Lord Xingyun was overjoyed, and patted his chest to promise that he would restore the astrological magic to him completely!
As for taking the ancient treasure and running away, he is not that stupid.

He could still distinguish between a meal and a meal full.

It is not easy to practice in the Nascent Soul stage. After finally finding a channel to obtain resources, how can you give it up easily?

The True Lord Xingyun also had no concerns about whether the other party would default on the debt.

Because the other party came from a behemoth like the Holy Land, and they had been cooperating for such a long time, their credibility was guaranteed, and he had gained a lot of benefits from it.

Besides, the new envoy seemed so wealthy that those things were just a drop in the bucket for him and were not worth refusing to pay.

After the two finalized the deal.

Then we talked about the issues in eastern and southeastern Shandong.

After learning that True Lord Xuehe was defeated and missing, and that Taixuan Holy Land replaced its partner with Luluo, he felt a little confused.

However, Lin Shan put all the blame on the previous envoy, asking him not to meddle in other people's business and just take care of himself.

True Lord Xingyun nodded and agreed, and wanted to invite the new envoy to the city for a banquet, but Lin Shan didn't have time to waste here, so he turned it down.

Cross the border and arrive at the southeastern border of Chu.

Jiuyao Peak remains the same as before, with lush green mountains and tranquil forests. Under the rule of Master Huang and Yan Yuanchun, the country is law-abiding and firmly defends its position.

It developed slowly in troubled times, but still remained inconspicuous.

He felt relieved when he saw the two elders and Luanchun again. It seemed like a lifetime ago, but it also seemed like it happened just yesterday.

Time passes, and nothing has changed here.

The three of them played the piano and chess in the bamboo forest, leisurely and relaxed, as if there was no conflict in the world.

"I have heard about Lingchao from the neighboring Jin State, but it is none of our business."

Seeing that he had come all the way here with great difficulty, Master Huang guessed that he must be very concerned about Lingchao, so he gave him a brief explanation.

All the sects and families, big and small, in Jin were integrated and coordinated by the Huangquan Sect and the Yuanmo Sect. No one was spared in the troubled times. The neighboring Chu State and Jiaozhou were also targeted by the holy land-level forces.

Fortunately, when choosing an agent, they gave priority to cooperating with Xushen Mountain, the top power in the Chu State. The Kun Sect is a remote place, and the Holy Land does not even look at it.

It is said that Xushen Mountain has dispatched two-thirds of the sect's forces, carrying a large number of sect families within the territory of Chu State, to the Fallen Demon Valley in Jin State to fight endlessly!

There is still no concrete result and the situation is said to be at a stalemate.

"Why, you plan to get involved too?"

Lin Shan shook his head and didn't have this idea for the time being.

"I will be returning to the Great Song Cultivation World soon after I leave seclusion this time, so I can't take care of this place for now. When I have the combat power of a great master, it won't be too late to consider the Spirit Tide."

Master Huang and Yan Yuanchun nodded. They had been worried that he would take risks, but now it seemed there was no need to persuade him.

Luanchun had been listening nearby, and could not suppress her delight at seeing him coming, but she did not interrupt his conversation with the two elders.

Lin Shan saw that this girl was now at the peak of the Golden Core stage, so it was time to try to form a baby.

However, he was dissuaded by the two elders, Master Huang, who said that with Luanchun's talent and foundation, he could break through to the Nascent Soul stage, and there was no need for him to force his progress now.

However, in recent years, Kun Sect has accepted many independent cultivators who fled from Jin State, and there are also some old people from that time who can be seen.

Luanchun pulled him to the front hall of Kunjiao and summoned all the senior leaders.

Only then did I realize that without realizing it, I had slowly developed to the level of over a hundred golden elixirs!
After learning that the leader had finally returned, he immediately dropped what he was doing and rushed over.

Many of them were Jindan Zhenren from the original Jiuyao Peak and surrounding areas, as well as disciples who gradually joined in the process or broke through on their own.

People like Li Yuanjie, Xiyin Cave Master, and Taoist Zhuiyu have also reached the peak of the Golden Core stage, and there are a few slightly familiar faces among them.

Master Mo Lian, Master Xie Xin, Godmother of Sacrifice, etc.

"Hey, it turns out it's you three, long time no see?"

The three smiled bitterly and saluted: "Greetings, Master. I didn't expect you to be the Master of Liansha Cave. We didn't recognize you back then. This time we fled from Jin State and came to you for help."

Lin Shan chuckled and helped the three people up.

"Since you have joined the Kun Sect, we are all one family. There is no need to be formal."

When he went to the State of Jin to attend the Withering Conference of the Demon Lord Withering, he transformed himself into the Lord of the Refining Demon Cave and got along quite well with these people. He also called out Ruyu, who had already broken through to the Nascent Soul stage in the Star Mansion, to reunite with everyone.

"Mrs. Bones, are you here too?"

The three of them came forward to recognize each other, and they were filled with emotion as they met old acquaintances again.

Lin Shan looked to the side again and saw a young man in the middle stage of the Golden Core looking at him with sharp eyes. It was none other than Zuo Ning, the son of Zuo Zhenren.

This kid is making rapid progress and is almost catching up with the older generation!

"Where is Kojizi? Why can't I see him?"

Lin Shan did not forget that he had an archaeological expert under him, but he looked around and found no trace of him.

Li Yuanjie stepped forward and reported:
"Master, Brother Kejizi sent a message a while ago saying that he was out searching for antiques and accidentally discovered a big secret. He said that only you can go there in person to find out."
