Chapter 223: Traces of the Soul Palace
It was not surprising to drive away Xuan Lilan, she turned her head to the strong man in the clan next to her and said, "It's okay, he's ...... Sort of my friend. ”
Those strong men of the Jiuli clan trusted Jiuli Lan very much, and when they heard her say this, they dispersed, and Jiuli Lan also handed over the Chiyou Banner in his hand to a strong man of the Dao One Realm.
After the latter took over the Chiyou Banner, he galloped all the way into the distance.
Soon, only Lin Fan and Jiu Lilan were left in mid-air.
Jiu Lilan looked at Lin Fan, who was dressed in dark clothes and covered with patches, and held her chin and laughed, "I said what's the matter with you?" Is it possible? After the Taiyi Immortal Gate was destroyed, do you plan to defect to my Jiuli clan? ”
"To put it bluntly, even if you come to my Jiuli clan, it's just an ordinary clansman to sit up, I'll help you find a beautiful wife at most, and I can only improve your status when you make contributions in the future, you know?"
Jiu Lilan's old-fashioned appearance was very stunning, and Lin Fan, who was looking at it, really wanted to go up and knock twice on her smooth forehead.
Seeing that Lin Fan was a little displeased, Jiu Lilan immediately changed her tone and said, "Forget it, I won't tease you, anyway, if you hadn't helped me kill that frost worm last time, I wouldn't have been able to come back so soon." ”
"Since you have come to my territory today, I will treat you well, come with me, and I will invite you to drink!"
Speaking of which, the two have only met twice.
Once in the Tianduan Mountain Range, the two were mortal enemies, and after a battle, Jiu Lilan was defeated and retreated.
The second time, in the Northern Wilderness Mountains, the two met by chance, although they were not mortal enemies, but they were definitely not friends.
Lin Fan even wanted to kill her several times, but in the end he fell under her sharp teeth, and while helping her kill the frost insect, he also gave her a large piece of cold sun and warm jade, and the relationship between the two can be regarded as turning from enemies to friends.
After that, someone came to chase and kill, and Jiu Lilan said goodbye without saying goodbye.
Until they met again now, Jiuli Lan transformed into a saint of the Jiuli clan, one of the thirteen holy places.
But Lin Fan lost the foundation of the sect and was a prodigal son with a deep hatred of blood.
In a secluded tavern, the silver hair ornament on Jiu Lilan's head kept ringing with her smile and smile.
During the conversation, she neither concealed her identity as the holy daughter of the Jiuli clan, nor did she show half arrogance to Lin Fan, but sat and drank with her like an old friend, talking about the interesting things that happened during this time.
After some conversation, Jiu Lilan took a sip of rice wine and said, "I said so much, you don't have anything to say?" ”
"For example, looking for me to make a heart spell that is ninety-nine to one?"
Speaking of this, Jiu Lilan smiled brightly, as if she had already seen through Lin Fan's thoughts.
While Lin Fan was slightly surprised when he heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
He's grown so big, and he hasn't begged anyone for anything, so he doesn't know how to speak for a while.
Now that Jiu Lilan took the initiative to mention it, it saved him a lot of trouble.
However, Lin Fan still had some doubts in his heart, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "How do you know that I am coming to you to ask for a ninety-nine to one heart spell duel?" ”
Jiu Lilan shook the slightly cloudy rice wine in the bowl and said, "Guess? Am I not the roundworm in your stomach? Is it possible, can I still know that your mind is not true? ”
"When I heard that you had condensed nine golden pills, I broke the curse and broke through to the realm of golden pills."
"At that time, I was thinking about the problem when you wanted to break through the Yuan Infant, thinking about it, in the entire Dongxuan Continent, it seems that only my clan's Ninety-Nine Unification Technique can help you break through this difficulty without destroying your own foundation."
"That's why I feel that as long as you stay in Dongxuan Shenzhou, you will definitely come to me."
Speaking of this, the corners of Jiu Lilan's mouth rippled with a confident smile.
Lin Fan was no longer polite when he heard this, he said sincerely: "I can exchange it for the remnants of the Jindan period of the Burning Lamp Emperor Sutra. ”
Jiu Li Lan smiled helplessly, she said: "It's not me who embarrass you, it's really this ninety-nine oneness technique, it is the secret method of my Jiuli Emperor Sutra, and even the people of my clan can't practice it at will." ”
"What's more, if you haven't practiced the first chapter of my Jiuli clan's Emperor Sutra, if you want to directly practice the divine chapter, it is almost impossible."
"So, I'm really sorry."
Hearing this, Lin Fan's eyes also darkened, and he also understood what Jiu Lilan said.
The Emperor's Scripture of a clan is the most central part of it, and once it is exposed, it means that its weaknesses are made public.
If it is thoroughly studied, it is not far from this race.
Therefore, although Lin Fan has many Emperor Sutra mental methods, the only one that can be taken out in exchange is the Burning Lamp Emperor Sutra.
Because everything else has a master.
And the secret law god chapter in Jiu Li Lan's mouth is the most essential chapter in the emperor scripture.
Legend has it that every emperor in his old age will rebuild the Emperor's Sutra, and at the end, leave the essence of his life's cultivation, this so-called secret law of the Emperor's Sutra.
And the secret law of each Emperor Sutra is equivalent to the last hole card of that clan, and basically no one will show it to outsiders.
Therefore, Lin Fan just sighed.
On the other side, Jiu Lilan had been staring at Lin Fan's face since she finished saying those words, and every detail of it was imprinted in her eyes.
At this time, Lin Fan had disappointment, worry, and regret on his face, but there was no such thing as anger or scheming.
Seeing this, a smile involuntarily appeared on the corner of Jiu Lilan's mouth.
After drinking the turbid wine, Jiu Lilan changed her words and said: "By the way, buying and selling is not benevolent and righteous, since we are friends, you have to help me if you have a favor." ”
"What's the busy?" Lin Fan's gaze returned to his previous indifference.
Jiu Lilan stood up and put her hands behind her back.
"You also saw what happened just now, an elder of the Xuanyuan clan was attacked and killed, and Xuanyuan Chihong's brute bull suspected that we did it."
"And our Jiuli clan also has an elder who was attacked by someone, although he didn't die, but he almost died, many people in the clan suspect that the Xuanyuan clan did it, if it weren't for my pressure, now the two clans are afraid that they have already fought."
"Now I have to find a way to investigate the truth of this matter, and then there is a person who neither belongs to the Jiuli clan nor the Xuanyuan clan to mediate the relationship between the two clans, you are just right."
Lin Fan smelled a strange aura from Jiu Lilan's words, he frowned and thought for a while and said, "Can you tell us more about the process of the attack on both sides." ”
Jiu Lilan glanced at Lin Fan with some surprise and said, "Are you going to wade into this troubled water?" ”
This time it was Lin Fan's turn to chuckle, and he hooked the corners of his mouth and asked, "Didn't you ask me to help?" ”
Looking at Lin Fan with a relaxed face, Jiu Lilan clasped her hands in front of her chest and teased: "I have always felt that you immortal people are all unprofitable goods. ”
"I didn't lend you the technique of ninety-nine to one today, but you helped me regardless of my previous suspicions, but I was impressed."
The Jiuli and Xuanyuan are two major ethnic groups, and they are very different from ordinary people in terms of their behavior and living habits.
The two sides rarely interact with each other on weekdays.
Therefore, for a long time, others have thought that these two major groups are mysterious and strange.
And these two major groups have always been very hostile to ordinary people, believing that they are all treacherous and cunning.
Although Jiu Lilan had practiced in the Canggu Immortal Sect, she thought that where she had seen it, there were mostly scenes of deceit.
Now Lin Fan decided to help regardless of her previous suspicions, which surprised her.
Lin Fan didn't feel that there was anything wrong, he looked at Jiu Lilan and said, "Just because you didn't covet those treasures on my body, and directly captured me, I will recognize you as my friend." ”
"Since we are friends, it is natural that we should help if we can."
Indeed, Lin Fan was ready to be captured and killed by the Jiuli clan before he came here, and even at that time, he even held the seal of heaven in his hand and was ready to sacrifice it at any time.
However, Jiu Li Lan really didn't mean to target him at all, as for the ninety-nine to be one-minded, Lin Fan asked himself, if it was a translocation, he might not give it.
To make friends, compare your heart to your heart.
Looking at Lin Fan with an indifferent face, Jiu Lilan's hands held in front of his chest were inserted into his slender waist again.
Her body trembled, and the silver ornament above her head jingled and jingled with a crisp sound.
"Okay, then I, Jiu Lilan, will recognize you as my friend."
Then, she sat down again and began to tell Lin Fan about the whole thing.
Specifically, this matter starts a few years ago.
At that time, a young man with mediocre qualifications in the clan suddenly knew a lot of ancient clan scriptures, and the elder who was attacked thought that he was psychic with the ancient ancestors, so he accepted him as a disciple for training.
And while the young man understood the scriptures of the clan, his cultivation was also becoming more and more sophisticated.
Not long ago, while the elder was reciting a sermon for him, the young man suddenly intervened and severely injured the elder.
Just when he wanted to continue to shoot, someone came unexpectedly.
When the boy saw that the matter was revealed, he killed himself on the spot.
While finishing the matter, Jiuli Lan explained to Lin Fan about the status relationship in the Jiuli clan.
The elders of the Jiuli clan are not like ordinary sects, and the elders walk all over the place.
The elders of their clan do not have much to do with strength cultivation, and there are three conditions for ascending to the position of elder.
The first is the in-depth study of the scriptures and rituals that have been passed down among the ethnic groups.
The second is that one's own moral character needs to be extremely noble and must not have bad deeds.
The third is that it is forbidden to marry a wife and have children, because in the eyes of the people of the Jiuli tribe, once they marry a wife and have children, people will have selfish intentions and will no longer be holy.
And in the entire Jiuli clan, there are only nine such elders in total, in addition to meeting the above conditions, if you want to become an elder, you also need to wait for the old elder to die or abdicate.
The rights of these elders are also great.
Not only can they have the power of life and death over their clansmen, but they can also remove all clan positions such as patriarchs, young patriarchs, and holy women.
And if any of them hurt them, their close relatives will be brutally killed.
The specific means are, within the three clans into the Ten Thousand Snake Cave, within the nine clans of the five cattle to divide the corpse, of course, close relatives can be exempted from punishment, but also need to be expelled from the group forever.
Now, the young man shot and injured the elder, and his people should have been dealt with.
But Jiu Lilan issued an order as a saint, temporarily suppressed this time, and said that after the investigation was clear, it would be dealt with together.
Although the major elders have huge powers, they will not abuse their rights, and now the patriarch and young patriarch of the Jiuli clan have gone to Sky Island.
Within the entire ethnic group, it is Jiu Lilan who has the final say.
Therefore, those people are still imprisoned now, but even so, Jiu Lilan can't be suppressed for too long.
After all, there has been no such vicious incident among the Jiuli clan for tens of thousands of years, and if the matter cannot be investigated in a short period of time, those clansmen are afraid that they will be brutally killed.
As the sworn enemy of the Jiuli clan, the Xuanyuan clan has a similar social hierarchy structure on both sides.
According to the intelligence, the situation of the Xuanyuan clan is also somewhat similar, the same person suddenly opened his mind, and he also hibernated for several years before suddenly making a move.
However, judging from the results, it was indeed different, the elder of the Jiuli clan did not die, and he also saw that the martial arts performed by that person were somewhat similar to those of the Xuanyuan clan on the surface.
But there are shadows of other exercises in his bones.
Jiu Lilan is a guy who is suitable for narrating, she told Lin Fan everything in detail.
By the time he was done, it was already dark.
And after listening to her story, Lin Fan seemed to have something vaguely in his mind.
He raised his head and asked solemnly, "Is the young man you said from your clan?" Could he have been dropped? ”
Jiuli Lan shook her head: "Impossible, the Jiuli clan does not intermarry with the outside world without permission, and what flows through him is also pure Jiuli blood, and he will not be dropped"
Hearing this answer, Lin Fan made up his mind, he stared at Jiu Lilan and said, "Then does he have a grudge against that elder?" ”
"No, that elder is a very amiable elder in my clan, and that young man also grew up under his watch, and he has a deep relationship on weekdays." Jiu Lilan said again.
Lin Fan rubbed his chin and said, "Then there is only one possibility, and that is that he has been invaded by someone's soul." ”
Speaking of which, the two looked at each other, as if they had seen something in each other's eyes.
After a while, the two of them said their conclusions in unison.
"Soul Palace!"
Lin Fan had dealt with the Soul Hall a long time ago, when he was just a reckless teenager, when he learned that the five elders of the Lin family would sell the clansmen who exposed his corruption of the clan's assets to the Soul Palace, he turned the Soul Hall of the Wu Kingdom upside down with one person and one sword.
It's just that the people of that tribe died, and Lin Fan couldn't prove it without sufficient evidence.
So much so that after coming back, he was scolded by Lin Xuan.
After that, he was ambushed by the Soul Hall Lord of Wu State, and almost didn't let him capsize in the gutter.
After that, the Soul Hall attacked the Taiyi Immortal Gate on a large scale and destroyed it.
Lin Fan has also formed an indissoluble grudge with the Soul Hall since then.
Compared with Lin Fan, Jiu Lilan didn't know so much about the Soul Palace.
As a hidden force, the Soul Hall rarely made a move, and the major holy places didn't pay much attention to it.
It wasn't until the fall of the Taiyi Immortal Gate that they realized that they didn't know when this force that had been hidden in the shadows had such great energy.
Even, he can use the emperor's weapon to exterminate an immortal gate.
After that battle, although most of the eyes of most people in the mortal world were on Lin Fan's body, those holy lands and immortal gates still noticed the elusive soul hall.
After all, the imperial weapon is not something that ordinary people can resist, if they attack themselves with the imperial weapon, how can they defend themselves?
During this period, Jiu Lilan also read all the information about the Soul Hall in the clan, and had a little understanding of its style and methods.
Invading the soul, blending into the other party's race, and then brazenly attacking, this method is very common for the Soul Palace.
However, although he knew that it was possible that the Soul Hall was involved in this matter, Jiu Lilan was helpless.
The assassin died, and she had no way of verifying.
After that, she secretly sent people to investigate everywhere, but naturally found nothing.
Moreover, in order to prevent there are still spies left in the soul hall in the clan, Jiu Lilan can't look for them with great fanfare.
Now that Lin Fan has arrived, Jiu Lilan can be regarded as a comrade-in-arms who can fight side by side in the true sense.
After all, with Lin Fan's hatred for the Soul Palace, he would definitely not stand idly by and watch this matter.
Some people died, but not completely......
