Chapter 205: The Jindan Monk Who Conceals His Cultivation
Li Yixian and Qin Guan naturally didn't know that there was another spy still hidden in the Water Moon Cave Heaven, but the two of them also expected that Lingyin Lou had always done things without leakage, and even if it was subtle, they would put a lot of energy into it. Thinking about it, it is also because the size of Lingyin Building itself is large enough, and it does not regard the lower levels of the organization as real people, so it is naturally not afraid of these people sacrificed.
"Qin Palace Master, I don't know what happened to my junior brother?" Li Yixian asked anxiously while standing outside the clean room of his cave mansion. Today is the last day that Qin Guan expelled the prohibition in Nan Xiangmu's body, and Li Yixian came to the door of his clean room early to wait, for fear that something would happen to Nan Xiangmu. However, Qin Guan had already instructed him not to enter the clean room easily, otherwise Nan Xiangmu would be distracted, and his efforts might be wasted. Qin Guan naturally won't suffer any damage, but Nan Xiangmu himself can't say for sure. You must know that among the people who expelled the prohibition of Lingyin Building in Qin Guan, Nan Xiangmu is the one with the highest cultivation so far, and even Luo Nan at the beginning was only in the early stage of Jindan, and there was a difference of two levels between him and Nan Xiangmu's realm, and the degree of difficulty was naturally different.
After waiting for a long time, Qin Guan said in the house: "It should be almost over, Master Li can come in." When Li Yixian heard this, he hurriedly pushed open the door and saw Qin Guan sitting on a chair in the room, while Nan Xiangmu was sitting cross-legged on the futon with his eyes closed.
Qin Guan smiled and said, "Master Li doesn't have to worry, Nan Daoyou is fine now." Although he is still in self-isolation, it is just the self-protection of his body, and there is nothing serious. The prohibition in his body has been completely eliminated after I have been uninterrupted for fourteen days of uninterrupted application of the Heart Purifying Mantra, and in the future, Nan Daoyou will never be controlled by the Spirit Hidden Tower again. ”
Li Yixian was overjoyed, and hurriedly wanted to bow to Qin Guan, but was stopped by Qin Guan and said: "Master Li doesn't have to be like this, there is no need to be so polite among the monks of my Cultivation Alliance." Originally, I was supposed to teach the Pure Heart Mantra to all the Daoists in the Cultivation Alliance, but I was worried that there were spies sent by the Lingyin Building in our Cultivation Alliance, and if they got it, they would study a way to deal with it, and this Pure Heart Mantra would be useless. Second, it is also because many elders of my Sanqing Palace are opposed, although this Pure Heart Mantra is not a high-level method, but it is also the only true method that my Sanqing Palace has secretly transmitted, and they are not willing to hand it over easily. Therefore, the elders of my Sanqing Palace discussed it, and this Pure Heart Mantra was placed in the Sword Pavilion, as long as the monks in the Cultivation Federation accumulated enough contribution points, they would naturally be able to go to the Sword Pavilion to exchange this Pure Heart Mantra. ”
"This is a great word!" Li Yixian laughed and said, but he also raised his own question: "But Qin Palace Master, this Pure Heart Mantra is not a profound magic trick in the first place, what if someone redeems it and then teaches it to others?
Qin Guan smiled slightly: "It's okay to do this. Our Xiulian is not only this pure heart mantra in the Sword Pavilion, but many sects, including my Sanqing Palace, have taken out a lot of spells and spells to put in the Sword Pavilion to exchange for contribution points. As for the monks who have exchanged spells, although they have also mastered the spell tricks, if they pass on the spells they have learned to others without the consent of the Sword Pavilion, they will face the punishment of the Sword Pavilion, ranging from confiscation of contribution points to years or even decades of service. ”
"Years or even decades of service?" Li Yixian smacked his lips, this punishment is not heavy. You must know that most of the monks of the Cultivation Federation are casual cultivators, and if they are allowed to serve for several years, it will delay their cultivation time for several years, in case they lack these years to advance to the realm, and their lifespan is insufficient, it will be a catastrophe for them. However, although this punishment can deter most of the loose cultivators, it may not be effective for the monks who are backed by the sect, they can easily give years of time, but the sect will also give them a lot of compensation.
Li Yixian told Qin Guan his guess, Qin Guan shook his head and said, "Master Li, for the monks who are backed by the sect, the management method of the Sword Pavilion is different. As long as they are monks who have joined the sect, they can naturally enjoy certain preferential treatment, after all, the strength contributed by the sect is not comparable to that of an individual like Sanxiu. As long as each sect is willing to pay enough price, it can naturally teach the spells and spells it has exchanged to others, but the contribution points required for exchange are not the little contribution points that they use alone. ”
Li Yixian nodded, Qin Guan's regulations are very reasonable, this is the same as the auction house's bidding, some people slowly increase from the reserve price, but there are also wealthy people who buy it directly at a fixed price, there is nothing fair or unfair. Moreover, there is no absolute fairness in the world, and Qin Guan's stipulation, at least for most casual cultivators, is already the greatest fairness. After all, Qin Guan is also the master of the first palace, and he also has to think about his disciples, if he just favors loose cultivation, his disciples may be in a mood.
While the two of them were still chatting, Nan Sang-mu had slowly woken up, his closed eyes slowly opened, and his eyes became no longer depressed. After seeing his senior brother, he immediately said, "Senior brother!" and then two lines of tears flowed down his eyes.
Li Yixian also sighed and said, "Hey, you, you, you have to be careful in the future, don't follow other people's ways." This time, thanks to the Qin Palace Master, there is a way to expel the prohibition in your body, in case you encounter other strange spells in the future, no one is sure that they will be able to help you anymore!"
Nan Xiangmu hurriedly nodded, wiped away his tears and said, "Senior brother, I know, I must be more careful in the future, and I will definitely not give thieves a chance to take advantage of it!"
Li Yixian nodded with satisfaction, and then pulled up Nan Xiangmu and asked him to salute Qin Guan and thank him. Qin Guan couldn't screw Li Yixian, looking at Li Yixian's attitude, he also knew that he would not give up easily, so he had to sit on the chair and let Nan Xiangmu give him a solemn salute, and said: "This time, thanks to the Qin Palace Lord, the great kindness of the Qin Palace Lord, it will be unforgettable! ”
Qin Guan was a little crying and laughing, what could he do for Nan Xiangmu to do, if Qin Guan encountered something tricky, and he couldn't solve it with his cultivation that was one level higher than Nan Xiangmu, then how could Nan Xiangmu have a way to solve it. Regardless of the fact that he also knew that it was not good to say this, it would also hurt Nan Xiangmu's face, so he had to nod his head and say that he would definitely do it.
After that, the three of them sat around the coffee table and chatted.
Qin Guan asked, "Nan Daoyou, I don't know how you were caught by the people of Lingyin Tower? Didn't you go out with the Jin Dan Elder in the door? Didn't they all realize that you were captured by the thieves?"
Nan Xiangmu sighed and said: "This matter is also embarrassing, although my cultivation has reached the late stage of Jindan, I can almost be promoted to the realm of Jindan consummation." But that gang of thieves was so elusive and weird that my fellow thieves were easily transferred. By the time they found out I was gone, I had already been captured by the cooperation of seven or eight Jindan monks. ”
Li Yixian asked at this time: "Senior brother, do you clearly see what those people look like? If you see them again in the future, will you still be able to recognize those people?"
Nan Xiangmu hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said, "Senior brother, the process of me being caught at that time was really a bit confusing. One moment ago, I was drinking tea and chatting with the two elders Zhang Wang who were traveling with me, but when I woke up the next moment, I was already besieged by eight Jindan monks. I don't have any impression of the process. ”
Qin Guan frowned, this kind of strange thing, if it wasn't for Nan Xiangmu's own words, personal experience, if it were someone else, Qin Guan would not believe what he said. But after all, Nan Xiangmu really fell into the ban of Lingyin Tower, so in this way, what he experienced must have happened.
But allowing people to come from one place to another without any notice, such a strange spell, Qin Guan still found it a little hard to believe that it was real. After all, although Tian Yuan's cultivation path is prosperous, everything still has its own laws, and this is the way of heaven. Nothing can go against the rules of heaven, otherwise it will definitely be rejected by the way of heaven, and then it will not be far from destruction.
But after thinking about it, Qin Guan felt that if it was the people of Lingyin Building who used such a strange spell, it was not necessarily impossible. After all, according to the people on the cliff, the purpose of Lingyinlou is to resurrect the ancient demon gods, and if the ancient demon gods only give an empty vision, with the shrewd minds of the madmen in Lingyinlou, it is impossible to believe it easily, and it must have received a lot of benefits in the early stage, so as to drive Lingyinlou to persevere to complete the goal.
Just when Qin Guan was still pondering, Nan Xiangmu suddenly brought up a matter: "Senior brother, although I was a little confused at that time, there were some strange things in it, and I still feel a little strange when I think about it now. ”
Li Yixian said angrily: "Then you should hurry up and say, grinding and chirping, exactly the same as when you were a child!"
Nan Xiangmu muttered, and he didn't dare to contradict his senior brother, so he had to say truthfully: "Senior brother, although I wondered why I didn't notice it at the beginning, I fell for the spell of the Lingyin Building, and the group of black-clothed people in the Lingyin Building who besieged me were all wrapped in strict black robes, but the figure and voice of one of them looked very much like someone I knew!"
Qin Guan's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked, "Nan Daoyou, do you think that one of them is very similar to a certain Jindan elder in the Water Moon Cave Heaven?"
Nan Xiangmu hesitated for a moment, and then said uncertainly: "This... I'm not sure about it, but it must be someone I know. Although I have been practicing in the door for a long time, I often go out with the elders in the door to exchange for cultivation materials, and as long as I have seen people, no matter how big the changes are, as long as there are many similarities among them, I will definitely be able to see them. ”
Qin Guan nodded, and then gave Li Yixian a look and asked him to tell Fang Mingjing's matter. Since Nan Xiangmu had been in the clean room, he didn't know what was happening in the Water Moon Cave, and Li Yixian didn't tell him because he was afraid that he would be distracted.
However, now that Nan Xiangmu said that among the eight Jindan monks who besieged him at the beginning, there were people he might know, maybe it might be Fang Mingjing, so Li Yixian told Nan Xiangmu what happened a few days ago.
After hearing this, Nan Xiangmu was not taken aback, but lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and then said firmly: "Senior brother, that person must not be Elder Fang!"
Li Yixian asked puzzledly: "Senior brother, why are you so sure that it can't be Fang Mingjing? You know, he personally admitted that he was a secret spy sent by Lingyin Tower, and he had been lurking in my door for hundreds of years, if it weren't for this opportunity to expel the ban for you, he wouldn't have jumped out." ”
Nan Xiangmu still said very firmly: "Senior brother, although Elder Fang has already admitted that he is a spy of Lingyin Tower, the somewhat familiar figure I saw that day will definitely not be Elder Fang. You must know that Elder Fang is much stronger than that person, and that person's cultivation is only in the early stage of Jindan, which is completely different from Elder Fang's realm in the late stage of Jindan. ”
Qin Guan nodded at this time, it was already extremely difficult to conceal one layer of cultivation, in the eyes of a monk of the same level, it was absolutely impossible to conceal two layers of cultivation, which was why Fang Mingjing was in the realm of Jindan consummation, but it had always only been disguised as the late stage of Jindan. It's not that he doesn't want to, it's that he's too hard to do. Qin Guan also believed that if Lingyin Lou had such a strange spell, then it would have been able to unify the cultivation world a long time ago, and it would not take so much effort to slowly penetrate the various sects in the cultivation world.
Li Yixian touched his chin and said suspiciously: "Who could it be?" The elders who went out with you at the beginning, that is, the two elders Zhang Danfeng and Wang Lingguang, as well as several accompanying foundation building disciples, you said that when the two elders of Zhang Wang were also present, you were transferred away unknowingly, could it be that there is something wrong with these two people?"
The more Li Yixian thought about it, the more reasonable he felt, this Zhang and Wang elders were cultivators in the middle of the Jindan period, if it was according to the statement that they could hide a layer of realm, they were indeed possible. But Nan Xiangmu still shook his head and said: "It's not these two elders, although I also suspected it, but after I was banned and released by the people of Lingyin Tower, I carefully observed the two of them, and they are indeed not like that person at all." ”
Li Yixian scratched his head a little at this time: "Who could it be?"
Qin Guan suddenly said: "Two Daoists, since Nan Daoyou said that person is a cultivator in the early stage of Jindan, is it possible that there will also be a layer of hidden cultivation, and the cultivation revealed in the sect is the foundation building perfection?"
Nan Xiangmu's eyes suddenly widened, and he said loudly: "I know who it is!"
