I am collecting entries in reincarnation

Chapter 788 Past
The three leaders of the Black Wind Village are all from the same school. The fact that their eldest leader can cultivate to the innate realm shows that their master is not ordinary, and this is actually the case.

Back then, the three of them were orphans and were adopted one after another by an old Taoist priest named Wuqizi. As his name suggested, he was an ordinary person. In Cheng Guo's memory, it seemed that their master had looked like this since the day he was accepted as the eldest disciple, wearing a Taoist robe that could never be washed clean, a wine gourd hanging around his waist, and a medicine box on his back.

Sometimes he plays the role of a traveling doctor, and sometimes he is a Taoist priest who catches ghosts and exorcises monsters. He is not really a cheater, after all, the old Taoist priest really has some skills.

At the same time, Wuqizi also slowly taught the three people martial arts. It can be said that these three people were carefully selected by Wuqizi. They have excellent talent and understanding. Their training cannot be said to have made rapid progress, but it can be said that their progress is rapid.

In just a few years, all of them had made some progress in their cultivation. At that time, they were still very young and had Wuqizi's protection, so they lived a relatively happy life. Until one day, Wuqizi drove the three away and left behind a brocade bag, saying that if they could not break through to the innate realm, they should not open the brocade bag, and then disappeared.

The three of them also tried to look for him, but Wuqizi seemed to have completely disappeared from this world, without any trace left.

After that, the three of them started to roam the world. Because they suddenly lost the protection of their master, they suffered a lot. After all, there was a difference between Wuqizi's previous small fights with them and real adventures.

During the more than ten years in between, the three of them went through many trials and tribulations, and they had lost their former innocence. Finally, one day, Cheng Guo, who was the most talented, cultivated to the innate level by chance.

They opened the brocade bag according to Wuqizi's message, and found only a torn map inside. He said that the map was a relic of their master, which was later lost. He had been searching for it all his life, but he only locked on a rough location. Now the master's enemy came, and he had to fight. For some reasons, he did not teach them the martial arts of his master. The treasure trove of this map contained the true inheritance of their master. If they could break through the innate realm and take out the relic, they could also keep the inheritance of their master intact.

At that time, they naturally still had some gratitude towards their young master, but after years of fighting in the martial arts world, they were not so naive. If it were not for the faction's inheritance in the treasure map, they might not have taken it so seriously.

Afterwards, the three of them searched for several years based on Wuqizi's treasure map and message, and finally found Black Wind Mountain and established Black Wind Village.

On the surface, it is a bandit's village, but in fact, the three of them have been looking for the specific address in the treasure map, including building twelve levels of pass, also in an attempt to find the treasure, but the treasure map is so flawed that they have not found anything definite for many years.

They even wanted to give up, but at this moment, a turning point came.

The third in command, who went down the mountain to do business, accidentally discovered a fragment similar to his own treasure map at an auction. He was ready to spend a large sum of money to buy it, but he went down the mountain alone at the time and did not carry much silver on him, so he did not take a picture of the treasure map. After that, he conducted extensive investigations and finally found that the fragment had fallen into the hands of the Lin family.

The reason why the Lin family was willing to buy the treasure map was because they also had one at home. After the third in command returned to the mountain to report the situation, the three of them discussed and investigated and found that although the Lin family's ancestors had been rich, they were now impoverished, and the strongest person in the family was only at the third level of the acquired realm. So they decided to go all out and directly massacred the Lin family and took away the treasure map.

Who knew there would be an unexpected surprise? The Lin family actually hid another piece. With the three fragments complete, they finally found the treasure trove in Black Wind Mountain.

Of course, during this period they also tried to dig something out of the Lin family's mouths, but the old bones refused to speak, and they were unwilling to let the matter spread, so the three of them had been exploring on their own, and the progress was very slow.

Not long ago, they finally made a breakthrough and opened the first level. The two couldn't wait to start practicing. Although they broke through to the innate level, something obviously went wrong.

The eldest master, however, had not yet switched to cultivation, as he had already broken through to the Xiantian realm and his foundation was solid, making it difficult to change. They were actively exploring, hoping to find a solution later, but they were making no progress. Until today, when Wen Yuqing attacked the stronghold and Li Ming rushed to the rescue, the situation had become what it is today.

Hearing the three people talking about their past experiences, Li Ming's eyes became more enthusiastic.

His eyes swept over the three leaders of Black Wind Village, as if assessing their value and potential. At the same time, a smile curved up his lips, clearly pleased with this unexpected discovery.

"Oh? Hero Li is interested in this?" A glimmer of hope flashed in the eyes of the boss Cheng Guo. He knew that Li Ming was a martial arts master with great powers. Now that they had fallen into Li Ming's hands, there was no possibility of escape. The only hope was that Li Ming noticed their value and chose to let them survive. Moreover, if they could get his help, perhaps the problems of the second and third brothers could be solved.

Li Ming nodded, his gaze finally landing on the second and third in command. "Although the technique you practice is powerful, it has an imbalance of yin and yang. If you don't adjust it in time, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles. I can help you, but before that, I need to understand your sect's heritage and the origins of this treasure map."

The second in command showed a trace of struggle on his face, and he was obviously hesitant about the secrets of his master. However, if he didn't give up these things, he was afraid that Li Ming wouldn't even glance back. So he nodded and said, "As long as you keep your promise, I am willing to tell you all the secrets of our master's inheritance and the treasure map."

Li Ming smiled slightly. At this time, Wen Yuqing, Yang An and others all showed some desire to leave.

Li Ming quickly waved and said, "No problem, let's listen together."

Then he turned to the three leaders of Black Wind Village and said, "Okay, now tell me the secret of your sect's inheritance and the treasure map."

The head Boss Cheng Guo took a deep breath and began to tell the history of their sect and the origin of the treasure map.

He didn't know at first, but after he collected the three fragments and opened the first level, he finally found some fragments and learned some information about their master.

Their sect was called Mingding Sect. It was originally a secret sect that specialized in alchemy. However, due to a civil strife, the sect split and its inheritance was scattered everywhere.

I think Wuqizi is one of them, and he is able to possess a treasure map, so he is probably a direct descendant.

Wuqizi had no idea what kind of people had chased him and caused him to lose his life.

"Emperor Dingzong of Ming?" Li Ming repeated the name, and then a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes.
