Chapter 221: Something Big
Huangshamen.
Li Zhengnan walked out of the retreat room, his whole face was muddy, and his hair was scattered, like a beggar who lived on the street after his business went bankrupt and begged for food.
A few years ago, he wasn't.
A few years ago, he promised all kinds of benefits, so that several Purple Mansion monks in the sect gave up competing for the "Jade Liquid Golden Pill" and supported him in using this object, and finally succeeded Cao Wenjin in handing over this heavy treasure worth millions of spirit stones to him.
Thinking back to that time, on the day he entered the retreat room with the "Jade Liquid Golden Pill" with full confidence, all the high-ranking monks in the sect were present to bless and send him off, how high-spirited he was!
It's a pity!
It's a pity that he still lived up to the expectations of the whole sect after all, and he failed!
No matter how good the "Jade Liquid Golden Pill" is, it can only increase the success rate of the knot by one or two percent, plus Li Zhengnan's various preparations for the knot, his success rate is probably about two and a half percent.
A quarter of the success rate of the knot, which is not low!
When many Purple Mansion monks attacked the Jiedan, the success rate could not even be guaranteed.
If it weren't for the fact that it was so difficult to get married, why did the greatest dream of the vast majority of monks after stepping into the cultivation be to become a Jindan monk who lived for a thousand years?
But with a three-quarter failure rate, it's obviously higher!
Li Zhengnan didn't have that life after all, he failed to change his life against the sky, and continued his life for another 500 years, becoming the Jindan ancestor admired by thousands of people!
Originally, there was nothing to fail in the Dan, many Jindan monks failed once or twice before they succeeded in the Dan, anyway, if the Dan failed, the most they could do was to damage the Dantian, lose some vitality, and they could try to Tie Dan again after a few decades of recuperation.
With Li Zhengnan's Shouyuan, he has at least two more chances to hit Jindan.
However, he failed to form a pill this time, but he used up the only "Jade Liquid Golden Pill" in the sect, and used up the "Jade Liquid Golden Pill" that the sect purchased with millions of spirit stones!
That's what happened!
All the sects in the world have a common rule when distributing important treasures such as "Jade Liquid Golden Pill", if the monk who uses this treasure succeeds in breaking through the realm, then in the future, he only needs to repay three to fifty percent of the spirit stone equivalent to the total value of the treasure to the sect.
However, if you fail to break through the realm after using the treasure, then I'm sorry, and the user must use all means to repay the debt for the rest of his life, and it will be compensated according to the price.
If he doesn't pay it off during his lifetime, the debt will even carry over to his descendants!
Because of this rule, when those sect monks compete for the right to use such treasures, they will also fully consider the problem of debt after failure.
At that time, Li Zhengnan was able to get several other Zifu monks in the Huangsha Gate to support him to win the "Jade Liquid Golden Pill", in addition to the fact that he himself really took out a lot of benefits to those people, this rule was also an important reason for those people to give up competing for the "Jade Liquid Golden Pill".
As for Li Zhengnan himself, he has never married a wife or had children in his life, and his thoughts before marrying Dan are that even if he fails, he will just sell his remaining less than 100-year life to the sect, and it will not harm future generations.
But how beautiful he thought at the time, and how miserable the end is now after defeat!
That's more than a million spirit stones!
What will he pay back?
You must know that in order to get the "Jade Liquid Golden Pill", he even took out two fourth-order high-grade magic weapons on his body and "gifted" them to those juniors, and now the spirit stones in his pocket and the sect merit value on his body add up to less than 10,000!
Not to mention how he promised how to repay those juniors after he succeeded in marrying Dan at that time.
In this case, do you think Lee Jung-nam looks good?
In fact, he failed to marry Dan two or three years ago, and it dragged on for two or three more years, in addition to calming down the damage caused by the failure of Yudan, the bigger reason was that he was afraid of taking responsibility after the failure.
It's just that dragging it out is obviously not the solution, a few years have passed, and some knowledgeable people in the sect have almost guessed the result, and Cao Wenjin even sent him a message in a stern tone a few days ago, asking him to go out of the customs and give an explanation!
Now that there is no way to delay, Li Zhengnan can only walk out of the retreat room with a miserable face and accept the punishment of the sect.
Fortunately, in the same door, the other Zifu monks in Huangshamen still saved some face for Li Zhengnan, and after seeing his muddy and nightmarish appearance, no one said anything sneering and ugly, but after a sigh of emotion, they each said a few words of comfort and left.
After the other Purple Mansion monks left, leaving only Cao Wenjin and Li Zhengnan, Cao Wenjin, who had never spoken up, finally spoke.
"If it's superfluous, the old man doesn't want to say more, when you came to get the [Jade Liquid Golden Pill], the old man told you, and now the old man will give you another five years to recover your vitality, five years later, in order for the sect to be stably inherited in the future, the old man has to do a big thing, and you must participate in it when the time comes!"
Being able to make Cao Wenjin say the word "big thing", and it also involves the inheritance of the sect, it can be seen that this matter is definitely a real big thing, and it will be very dangerous.
Li Zhengnan, as the second person in Huangshamen today, certainly won't be unaware of this.
And he also knows a truth, the more bland Cao Wenjin's tone, the bigger the matter.
At the same time, as the person Cao Wenjin specially named to participate in this major event, as a person who had just wasted millions of spirit stones from the sect, the responsibility and pressure to bear in this matter would definitely not be small.
Perhaps, it will be fatal!
Li Zhengnan's body shook slightly, and the person behind him smiled miserably, bent down deeply and bowed to Cao Wenjin and said, "The senior nephew understands, everything is according to the orders of the senior uncle!"
He didn't have a choice!
Wasting the "Jade Liquid Golden Pill" purchased by the sect's millions of spirit stones, this is his biggest "original sin"!
Cheng is called an ancestor and lives a thousand years!
If you lose, you will be ruined, and your sin will be unforgivable!
The path of cultivating immortals has always been so cruel!
And with Li Zhengnan's exit, the news of his failure to marry Dan was quickly spread to their respective families by the monks from various families in the Huangsha Gate, and then spread to the entire boundless sand sea cultivation immortal realm.
For a while, the various immortal cultivation families in the entire Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm were arguing endlessly because of this news.
But there is a consensus, and everyone agrees.
That is Huangshamen, and the guardian of Huangshamen, Cao Wenjin Cao Laozu, will definitely not sit back and watch Huangshamen go into decline.
In short, the heaven of this boundless sand sea cultivating immortal realm is about to change again!
After receiving the news, Zhou Yang of Red Fox Ridge also went to the Yuquan Lake Oasis to discuss this matter with the old patriarch Zhou Minghan.
In the end, the two men made an unexpectedly unanimous decision, which was to wait and see.
Cao Wenjin is not dead yet!
As long as this Jindan monk is still alive for a day, anyone or any family dares to make any move at this time, whether it is good or bad, it will definitely touch the already sensitive nerves of this old ancestor, thus triggering unpredictable consequences.
The Zhou family just wants to stand in line, and it is definitely not this time.
At this time, what should really be anxious is those Zifu families, because the Zhuji family can also choose to stand in line, and the Zifu family, they just want to stand in line, and they also want people to believe him!
That's right, that's it.
At least after the ancestor of the Chen family learned the news of Li Zhengnan's defeat, the whole person became bad.
Originally, several Purple Mansion monks in Huangshamen had a good relationship with him, and when Li Zhengnan obtained the "Jade Liquid Golden Pill", the first person who notified him was a certain Purple Mansion monk in Huangshamen.
But now, after Li Zhengnan's failure to marry the Dan, none of the Huangshamen Purple Mansion monks informed him, let alone revealed any inside information to him.
This alone is enough to make him have a lot of associations.
For this reason, he had to announce that he was out of the customs, and then personally went to Huangshamen to visit Cao Wenjin, on the surface, he asked Cao Wenjin for advice on the method of knotting, saying that he would fight hard before Shouyuan was exhausted, but in fact, he was loyal, implying that he did not have much longevity, indicating that the Chen family did not threaten the strength of Huangshamen.
However, Cao Wenjin's response made the ancestor of the Chen family very uncertain.
In the face of his inquiry, Cao Wenjin generously gave him a piece of experience in knotting Dan, but at the same time, he also asked him not to be busy with retreat in the past ten years, saying that he needed to ask him to help him if he had something to do in the future.
Cao Wenjin said that he wanted him to help him, but the ancestor of the Chen family naturally didn't dare to say no, so in the end, he could only respond first, and then returned to the family nervously, and studied the experience of Cao Wenjin to get married.
The news that the ancestor of the Chen family was successfully promoted to the ninth layer of the Purple Mansion was naturally known to Zhou Yang very quickly, but he had no other reaction except for sighing when he first learned the news.
Regardless of whether the ancestor of the Chen family is an eighth-layer cultivator in the Purple Mansion or a ninth-layer cultivator in the Purple Mansion, there is actually no difference between him and the Zhou family.
At this stage, the other party is an existence that they cannot compete with.
What's more, there is another thing that worries Zhou Yang even more now, that is, Zhou Guangxiang, who was in the Red Fox Ridge retreat and built the foundation, has passed more than three months and has not yet left the cave.
For more than three months, there was no vision of "aura infusion" on the Red Fox Ridge, indicating that Zhou Guangxiang must have failed to build the foundation.
However, with the protection of "Zhuji Dan", even if it fails, Zhou Guangxiang should not be in danger of life.
But what made Zhou Yang feel heavy was that in the past three months, Zhou Guangxiang still refused to come out of the cave, and Zhou Guangxiang, who was protecting the Dharma for her, resolutely refused to open the formation and let him in to check the situation.
"Guangxiang, do you know what you're doing? By doing this, you're not only disobeying the orders of the elder patriarch, but you're also gambling with your sister's life!"
Outside Zhou Guangxiang's cave mansion, Zhou Yang looked at Zhou Guangxiang who was guarding the gate of the cave mansion, his face was very ugly.
With his intelligence, of course he guessed the reason why Zhou Guangxiang did this, but because of this, he wanted to stop him even more!
