Plants vs. Cultivation.

Chapter 90 Inner Gate Treatment
Elder Peak of the Law Enforcement Hall.

Yuan Niya took Chu Feifei and carefully slipped into her own cave, where they disappeared for three days without saying a word. This made Yuan Niya feel very uneasy. She couldn't imagine how angry her master would be when he looked for her to teach but couldn't find her.

Although the master looks beautiful and gentle, Yuan Niya, who has also practiced the Heart Fire Technique, knows that all of this is a disguise of the master. The real master is very scary.

"Where have you been these days?"

After successfully slipping into the cave, Yuan Niya was about to breathe a sigh of relief when a gentle voice sounded. Upon hearing this, Yuan Niya felt like a frightened kitten, with her whole body covered in goosebumps.

His eyes quickly swept towards the source of the sound. Beside the stone table in the cave, a beautiful lady in palace dress with long flowing hair was quietly fiddling with the flower basket in front of her.

"Master, Master! Why are you here?"

Yuan Niya swallowed and saluted quickly, and Chu Feifei beside her also saluted.

"I haven't been able to find you these past few days, so naturally I have to come and see you." Zhuo Suzhu glanced at Yuan Niya. She was very fond of this disciple. In addition to Yuan Niya's talent of a mid-grade fire spiritual root, Zhuo Suzhu saw her former self in Yuan Niya.

She was still worried. When the master saw her, he must have felt the same way as she does now. But the master could no longer worry about her.

Thinking of her fallen master, Zhuo Suzhu's heart began to ripple, and then a manic aura flashed across her.

"It's over, it's over, the master is angry!"

Feeling the fleeting manic aura from the beautiful woman in palace dress in front of her, Yuan Niya sighed and subconsciously touched her butt.

"Are you at the fifth level of Qi refining?"

Quickly restraining the manic aura that leaked out due to emotional fluctuations, Zhuo Suzhu suddenly frowned. With her cultivation level of the Jindan stage, she could tell at a glance that Yuan Niya's cultivation level had reached the fifth level of Qi Refining. If it were someone else, they would definitely be very happy to see their disciple's cultivation level break through.

But Zhuo Suzhu did not feel the slightest bit of joy in her heart, because Yuan Niya was practicing the same Heart Fire Technique as her, and practicing this technique too quickly was not a good thing.

If this is not handled properly and is eroded by the fire in the heart, it will be very troublesome.

"come here!"

Zhuo Suzhu waved at Yuan Niya. Hearing that, Yuan Niya ran to her master obediently. Then, Zhuo Suzhu slapped Yuan Niya on the head with her palm as white as jade.

"what?"

Soon, a hint of doubt appeared in Zhuo Suzhu's eyes. After her examination, there was no sign of Yuan Niya being eroded by the heart fire.

"It seems that this girl has got some opportunity again." After confirming that there was no problem, Zhuo Suzhu felt relieved. Zhuo Suzhu was a little curious about why Yuan Niya could avoid the erosion of heart fire. After all, she was also deeply troubled by heart fire.

But as long as Yuan Niya doesn't say anything, Zhuo Suzhu will not take the initiative to inquire. Even if she is her disciple, she should have her own secrets.

For example, she discovered a long time ago that Yuan Niya's foundation was increasing rapidly, which was obviously due to the baptism of the perfect-level cleansing technique Yijing marrow removal. Zhuo Suzhu did not agree to ask others to perform Yijing marrow removal, as it would allow her secrets to be known to others.

But she did not stop her. Every cultivator has his own path of cultivation. As a master, what Zhuo Suzhu had to do was to help correct Yuan Niya when she went astray, rather than forcibly changing her path of cultivation.

Since Yuan Niya finds it acceptable to ask others to help her with the Yi Jing marrow cleaning, then this may not be a bad thing. She does not need to spend time comprehending the perfect level of cleansing technique and can spend more time on cultivation.

Now, this girl Yuan Niya has even resolved the side effects of the Heart Fire Art. These two opportunities, one to increase her foundation and the other to increase her cultivation speed, can be said to complement each other.

Feeling the master's touch, Yuan Niya's anxiety gradually subsided, as if the master had no intention of blaming her.

Thinking that her master was also troubled by the inner fire like herself, she now found a way to resolve it, but she didn't tell her master. This made Yuan Niya feel a little guilty. Her master was so good to her, but she didn't even think about him.

Thinking of this, Yuan Niya turned her gaze to Chu Feifei behind her and asked her if she could tell her secret to the master. If the strange fragrance on Chu Feifei's body could help the master resolve the erosion of the heart fire, then the master would not have to endure the pain brought by the heart fire.

Feeling the inquiry in Yuan Niya's eyes, Chu Feifei nodded. If the unique fragrance on her body could help a Jindan elder, then she would be holding on to a super thigh that was thicker than Yuan Niya's.

"Master, I have a secret to tell you." After obtaining permission, Yuan Niya quickly pulled Chu Feifei in front of her and told her the secret of how she was not eroded by heart fire.

"Oh."

After hearing Yuan Niya's story, Zhuo Suzhu immediately became interested. She had previously vaguely discovered that Chu Feifei, the follower accepted by her apprentice, was a little special. However, Zhuo Suzhu did not take it too seriously at the time. She thought that no matter how special a little Qi-refining cultivator could be, how special could he be?

But now Yuan Niya said that the strange fragrance emanating from this little girl could dissolve the erosion of heart fire, which forced Zhuo Suzhu to take it seriously.

Heart fire erosion, this is definitely Zhuo Suzhu's biggest dilemma at the moment. When the only Nascent Soul cultivator of Qinglu Sect, who was also Zhuo Suzhu's master, died, the entire Qinglu Sect fell into an unprecedented crisis.

At that time, Zhuo Suzhu ignored the erosion of her heart fire and practiced madly, reaching the Great Perfection of the Golden Elixir at the fastest speed. Then, with her terrifying fighting power, she frightened many people with evil intentions.

It is no exaggeration to say that the strongest fighter in Qinglu Sect now is not Sect Leader Gao Yunrui, but Zhuo Suzhu. Zhuo Suzhu, who has also reached the Great Perfection of Golden Core and has practiced the Heart Fire Sutra, can definitely beat Gao Yunrui.

Logically speaking, Zhuo Suzhu is the most suitable one to reach the Nascent Soul stage. After all, Zhuo Suzhu is stronger than Gao Yunrui in terms of age, talent, and strength.

But the problem of heart fire made Zhuo Suzhu dare not to break through to the Nascent Soul realm, because the powerful heart fire condensed by breaking through the realm would instantly drive her crazy.

This was the price she paid for her desperate breakthrough back then. Not only did she not dare to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, but now Zhuo Suzhu seldom took action. Every day she just planted flowers and grass, cultivated her mind and temper, hoping to slowly dissipate the hostility brought about by the erosion of the fire in her heart.

If Zhuo Suzhu can solve the erosion of her heart fire, then she will dare to impact the Nascent Soul realm. With her combat power, if she enters the Nascent Soul realm, she will definitely be able to beat other Nascent Soul cultivators of the same level.

"This is an Yijing marrow-removing pill, you try taking it." After learning that in order to stimulate the strange fragrance of Chu Feifei's special physique, a perfect-level cleansing technique is required. Both Yuan Niya and Zhuo Suzhu have not mastered the perfect-level cleansing technique. However, as a Jindan cultivator, Zhuo Suzhu has other means.

"Thank you, elder!"

Chu Feifei took the pill respectfully. This Yijing Marrow-Removing Pill was a top-grade first-grade pill. In theory, taking this pill could also achieve the effect of receiving a perfect-level cleansing technique.

However, the Yijing Marrow-Destroying Pill is extremely difficult to refine, and the sect can only produce a few furnaces every year. Because the output is too small, many inner disciples can only get one every few years. If you want to rely on the Yijing Marrow-Destroying Pill to increase your foundation, it is impossible unless the sect gives all the furnaces of Yijing Marrow-Destroying Pill produced every year to one person. In comparison, the Perfection Level Cleansing Technique is definitely the most cost-effective way to increase your foundation.

After swallowing the pill, Chu Feifei immediately felt an experience similar to that of receiving Gu Mo's perfect level cleansing technique. Afterwards, her special physique was stimulated and a rich and strange fragrance spread out.

"Master, how is it? Is it effective?" Yuan Niya looked at Zhuo Suzhu with anticipation. The strange fragrance on Chu Feifei's body had a strong effect on her, but she was not sure whether it was the same for the master.

“It’s effective, but not enough.”

Zhuo Suzhu slowly opened her eyes. One of them was a Jindan cultivator, and the other was just a Qi-refining cultivator. The difference in strength was too great. The strange fragrance on Chu Feifei's body was effective on Yuan Niya, but it had very limited effect on Zhuo Suzhu, a Jindan cultivator.

Unless Chu Feifei's cultivation can also reach the Golden Core realm, then the strange fragrance on Chu Feifei's body may be able to help Zhuo Suzhu eliminate the erosion of heart fire.

But she obviously didn't have time to wait for Chu Feifei to cultivate from the Qi Refining Stage to the Golden Core Stage. With a sigh in her heart, Zhuo Suzhu said, "From now on, you will enjoy the treatment of an inner disciple in the Law Enforcement Hall. If you have any questions about your cultivation, you can come and ask me." Chu Feifei's strange fragrance couldn't help her, but it could help Yuan Niya from being eroded by the fire in her heart.

Therefore, the purpose of giving Chu Feifei the treatment of an inner disciple is to prevent Chu Feifei's cultivation from being too far behind Yuan Niya. Otherwise, the effect of Chu Feifei's fragrance on Yuan Niya will be weakened. It would be best if the two of them could advance in cultivation at the same pace.

In this way, no matter which realm Yuan Niya strives to reach, she doesn't have to worry about the erosion of her heart fire. In the future, maybe this disciple of hers can surpass her and reach the Nascent Soul realm.

"Thank you for the reward, Elder!"

Chu Feifei bowed, her eyes unable to conceal her excitement. As expected, showing one's own value can bring huge rewards. Of course, this also depends on the person and the situation. Exposing one's secrets will only bring disaster.

And she successfully seized the best opportunity to show her own value and was handsomely rewarded with the treatment of an inner disciple, which is what many people dream of.

With this generous treatment, Chu Feifei felt that it would not be difficult for her to catch up with Gu Mo.

Main peak.

"Brother, the true trial is about to begin. How are your preparations going?" He Shaogang glanced at the middle-aged deacon beside him.

"Everything is ready. Once those inner disciples leave Qinglu Sect, we will be able to intercept and kill them." The middle-aged deacon nodded.

Those who can participate in the true teaching trial are the most elite seeds of a sect. If they can kill these inner disciples who participate in the trial, they will definitely be able to severely damage the Qinglu Sect, which will be of great help to them in disintegrating the Qinglu Sect.

Of course, the sect’s true teaching trial will also have various protection measures, but no matter how good the measures are, they cannot prevent the appearance of enemies within.

By then, the elite disciples who participated in the true teachings would be killed and the refining of the Ningying Pill would fail. These two events would become the prelude to the demise of the Qinglu Sect.

"By the way, Junior Brother, the assassination organization we formed has recently received a commission, and the target seems to be one of the true disciples trial this time." The middle-aged deacon suddenly thought of something and took out a contract.

"Is there another force that wants to attack Qinglu Sect?"

He Shaogang was a little surprised, but when he thought about the situation of Qinglu Sect, it seemed that this was not something worth being surprised about. They were not the only ones eyeing the Qinglu Sect. It was just that other forces still had concerns, especially those immortal cultivation sects that were also located here.

Other sects may also encounter the situation of Qinglu Sect. If they openly attack Qinglu Sect, then if anything happens to their sect's Nascent Soul ancestors in the future, they can't blame others for the action.

Therefore, all the major sects were very restrained. At most, they slowly eroded the interests of Qinglu Sect in some small places, but did not dare to take large-scale actions against Qinglu Sect. They even had to provide support when Qinglu Sect was attacked by foreign enemies.

This is also the reason why the sect He Shaogang belongs to did not dare to directly attack Qinglu Sect and could only choose to disintegrate internally.

But it is hard to say what the mentality of each family is in secret while they are not taking action openly. After all the interests outside Qinglu Sect are encroached upon, all eyes will eventually be focused on the mountain gate of Qinglu Sect. That is a temple with a 4th-order spiritual vein. This alone is enough to make a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage jealous.

Let the assassination organization kill the disciples of Qinglu Sect and cut off the inheritance of Qinglu Sect. When Qinglu Sect is completely weakened, it will be the time to divide Qinglu Sect.

"I don't think so."

The middle-aged deacon shook his head, because the target this time was only one person, and it was more like a vendetta than a secret attack from other sects.

"Yuan Niya!"

Following the middle-aged deacon's words, He Shaogang also saw the contract handed over by the other party. The name on it made He Shaogang stunned.

Obviously, he didn't expect that someone would hire an assassination organization to rob and kill Yuan Niya. This person joined the sect only a few months earlier than him, and became a disciple of the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall. Who is so stupid as to dare to attack this person?

"Yao Shifeng!"

After thinking about it, He Shaogang asked the middle-aged deacon to leave and then called Yao Shifeng.

"Little Lord!"

Yao Shifeng bowed and saluted.

"Has Yuan Niya offended anyone recently?" He Shaogang asked. Yao Shifeng is currently responsible for collecting various intelligence within the sect for him.

"should not."

Yao Shifeng thought for a moment and shook his head. Yuan Niya was the disciple of the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall, who would mess with her? "However, there was an incident recently involving Yuan Niya and another inner disciple Ye Yuqi. The reason was that Ye Yuqi wanted to take a female disciple from Zhenfeng as her follower, but the disciple refused. In the end, the disciple became Yuan Niya's follower." Yao Shifeng explained the news he had received in detail.

When he mentioned the female cultivator who worked as a servant at Zhenfeng, his tone was calm, without any bias because he knew her. He wanted to give He Shaogang the most original information without any personal emotion. This is what a qualified intelligence officer does.

"Could it be that the person who issued the robbery and killing mission was Ye Yuqi?" After listening to Yao Shifeng's story, He Shaogang couldn't help but feel a little suspicious. It was just a follower who was robbed, so there was no need to hire a killer.

After thinking for a while, He Shaogang finally shook his head. The information was too little and he couldn't make an accurate judgment, but Ye Yuqi was worth paying attention to.

After all, both parties have a common goal.
