The moonlight was like water.
Soft light scattered.
Qingcheng Mountain, the sacred land of Taoism.
A graceful and beautiful woman in white was kneeling in front of the mountain gate with a severely injured woman in green on her back.
"Bai Suzhen from Qingcheng Mountain requests an audience with Perfected Lingxu!”
His voice was urgent, pleading, and sincere.
But…
What welcomed her was a row of powerful Qingcheng Mountain cultivators.
"What a terrifying demonic aura!"
The elders of Qingcheng Mountain stared at Bai Suzhen as if they were facing a great enemy.
The disciples behind them had solemn expressions.
He released his true energy and was ready to fight at any time.
"You audacious demoness, do you know that my Qingcheng Mountain is a sacred place for Daoism? How dare you?" An elder in charge shouted in a deep voice. The Azure Light Sword in his hand rang out as he wanted to break through the air.
Bai Suzhen quickly said," I was originally a snake demon at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain. It took me a thousand years to cultivate this body in the cave. More than 800 years ago, I was taught by your sect's Master Lingxu. Now that my sister is in danger, I have no choice but to come here to ask Master Lingxu to save my life. I hope you can forgive me!"”
"Oh?"
The Taoist priests looked at each other with confusion in their eyes.
The elder in charge pondered for a moment and then reprimanded,"Ridiculous! Old Ancestor Lingxu was a respected person of our sect in the past. How could he be acquainted with a snake demon like you?”
"Retreat quickly, or don't blame us for setting up the Connate Origin Formation and killing you here!”
As he spoke, the elders beside him had already changed their positions and prepared for battle.
Bai Suzhen knew that she couldn't explain it to them, so she looked into the depths of Qingcheng Mountain and used her mana to plead,
"Bai Suzhen requests an audience!"
"Perfected Lingxu, please come out and see me!”
"Little Qing's life is on the line, I beg you to save her life on account of the kindness of the Heavens!”
"Bai Suzhen, please save me!!”
The cries echoed through the night sky and echoed throughout the twenty-six peaks of Qingcheng Mountain.
Countless Taoist priests were alarmed.
"Stubborn!"
The elder in charge frowned and shouted without hesitation,""Form the formation!"
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The elders and the forty-nine Qingcheng Mountain experts instantly shifted their positions and formed the Connate Origin Formation.
Beams of golden light lit up.
They intertwined with each other, forming a huge disc under their feet.
The runes on the disc flickered.
Everyone in the array was baptized and all of them grasped the Innate Vital Qi. Their combat strength soared!
"Demon, if you don't leave, don't blame us for being heartless!”
The elder in charge shouted in a deep voice, and everyone was ready to attack.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a voice filled with Dao runes echoed from the twenty-six peaks of Qingcheng Mountain.
"Bai Suzhen, you finally came out.”
"Who is it?"
"Who's talking?"
All the Taoist priests present looked at each other. Only a few elders frowned slightly and seemed to be deep in thought.
Bai Suzhen looked happy and begged,"Perfected One, you're finally willing to respond to me. Little Qing's life is on the line, so please save her. I'm willing to give you a thousand-year-old demon core.”
As soon as he said this.
The Taoist priests were shocked.
What did he mean?
Could it be that the person who spoke at this moment was really Old Ancestor Lingxu, who had disappeared from Qingcheng Mountain 700 years ago?
So, Old Ancestor Lingxu had always been in seclusion in Qingcheng Mountain as a foundation?
Everyone's breathing quickened, and their eyes were filled with surprise and awe.
Perfected Lingxu was a peerless prodigy of Qingcheng Mountain in the past and had the potential to become an immortal.
Before the Wudang Sect's Zhang freak had reached his peak, Perfected Lingxu was once known as the number one person in the Dao Sect of that era!
Unfortunately, 700 years ago, Perfected Lingxu had gone on a long journey and lost all news of him.
Everyone thought that he had passed away somewhere.
However, he didn't expect that this legend had always been in Qingcheng Mountain!
This made all the Taoist priests tremble with excitement.
Replies continued to ring out from the mountain peak.
It seemed far and near, ethereal and traceless.
"It's not that I don't want to save her, but your sister has been injured too much in the past 800 years. Her origin has long been damaged, and now she has exhausted all her Qi and blood. Her Dao foundation has been destroyed by 70 - 80% of the time. There's nothing I can do about such injuries.”
As soon as he said this.
Bai Suzhen was in despair.
"Even you can't save me…Little Qing…"
She looked at her younger sister, and for a moment, she was filled with indescribable grief and tears.
The voice sounded again.
"Although the green snake is heavily injured, it is not certain to die."
"If you can find a ninth-grade medicinal pill, although it can't cure her Dao foundation origin, it's still possible to save her life.”
Bai Suzhen's eyes lit up when she heard this, but she said helplessly,""Tier 9 medicinal pills are rare in the world. Now that my sister is in danger, how should I find her…"
Suddenly, she thought of something.
"Mount Longhu. Oh right, Mount Longhu should have level-9 pills!”Bai Suzhen said excitedly.
Thinking of this, she quickly got up and said to the depths of Qingcheng Mountain,"Thank you for your guidance, Perfected One.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and was about to leave.
The Taoist priests who had formed the Connate Origin Formation looked at each other and looked at the elder in charge. The elder in charge did not hesitate and said directly,"Make way."
At that moment, everyone withdrew from the formation.
"Thank you so much!"
Bai Suzhen turned into a white rainbow and disappeared into the night sky.
……
……
Mount Longhu.
As one of the ancestral courts of Taoism, it was the leader of the five great holy lands.
The mountain is magnificent, surrounded by clouds and fog.
Spiritual energy gushed out all day long, and the fragrance of medicinal herbs was fragrant.
Twenty-four peaks.
It was dangerous, steep, towering, majestic, and the scenery was different.
A green jade flight of stairs was like a heavenly staircase, leading straight to the front of the Cloud Sky Ancestral Peak.
The sky had just turned white, and one could already see the sage-like bearing everywhere.
At the mountain gate.
Two imposing Daoists were talking with each other, and behind them was a Daoist child.
One is a Taoist priest from Longhu Mountain.
One is a Taoist priest of Wudang Mountain.
"Sect Leader Lu of the Martial Dao Sect has unfortunately met with death. It is indeed the grief of our Daoism. Fortunately, Elder Yu came to the rescue and appointed a new sect leader.”
"Elder Zhang, please send my congratulations to Sect Master Yu and Wudang Sect when you return!”
The person who spoke was an old man with a righteous aura. He was old but strong, and he had an extremely imposing aura.
He was the current Sect Leader of Longhu Mountain, Zhang Duzhi.
The person from Wudang Sect was the Fifth Elder, Zhang Chengxi.
"Don't worry, Sect Master Zhang. I will definitely bring your congratulations. I also wish Mount Longhu to regain its former glory and hope that Sect Master Zhang will receive the Heavenly Master's Blessing soon.”Zhang Chengxi said sincerely.
Speaking of which, Wudang Sect's encounter this time was actually the same as Longhu Mountain's past.
The previous heavenly master of Mount Longhu was unfortunately ambushed by a powerful cultivator after he left the mountain.
This also led to the current Zhang Duzhi not having the inheritance of a heavenly master. He could only be called a sect master and not a heavenly master.
Zhang Duzhi sighed and said self-deprecatingly,""I don't think I'll be fated to be a Taoist Master in this life.”
Zhang Duzhi shook his head and said with a smile,"
" Let's not talk about this anymore. The sky is already bright. Elder Cheng Xi, you should go back quickly. Also, don't forget about the Heavenly Great Dipping in a month's time. This is a great event that happens once every twenty years for our Taoism. Don't be late for Wudang Sect when the time comes."”
he joked.
"Naturally."
"Then I'll take my leave!"
After Zhang Chengxi finished speaking, he was about to return to Wudang Sect.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a white streak of light flashed over.
"Hmm?"
"What a powerful demonic aura!"
Zhang Chengxi and Zhang Duzhi instantly frowned, and their expressions turned grave.
Experts also rushed over from all over Mount Longhu.
In front of the mountain gate, no less than ten Grandmasters had gathered!
The white rainbow descended.
A beautiful and graceful woman carried a green snake on her back and knelt down with tears in her eyes."Bai Suzhen of Mount Qingcheng, I beg the Heavenly Master of Mount Longhu to give me a ninth-grade pill to save my sister's life!”
His voice was mournful, sincere, and pleading.
"Bai Suzhen?"
Hearing this name, all the grandmasters present looked at each other in bewilderment.
"You are the white snake demon who was imprisoned in the Leifeng Pagoda of the Golden Mountain Temple eight hundred years ago?”Zhang Duzhi could not help but ask.
"It's me!"
Bai Suzhen's eyes reddened as she replied. Then, she looked at everyone present."Taoist masters, may I ask who is the Heavenly Master of Mount Longhu? My sister is in danger. Please give me medicine to save her!”
Was it really her?
Zhang Duzhi and his fellow disciples looked at each other and did not rush to answer Bai Suzhen.
As for the name Bai Suzhen…
Most of the young Taoist priests had only heard of it in legends, but no one knew if this demon really existed.
As for the experts of the older generation, they knew that it was not just a legend.
"It is said that Bai Suzhen has cultivated for a thousand years and has never killed anyone in her life.”An elder of Dragon Tiger Mountain nodded repeatedly.
"He's a good demon who only cares about cultivation. Unfortunately, he was suppressed by the mad monk Fahai for 800 years.”Zhang Chengxi sighed.
"Can you tell me how you escaped from Leifeng Pagoda?”Zhang Duzhi looked at Bai Suzhen curiously.
Bai Suzhen didn't hide anything.
He told her everything about his sister, Green Snake, fighting to the death and how the expert saved her.
Then, he asked again anxiously,"Taoist masters, which one of you is the current Heavenly Master of Mount Longhu? Please save my sister…"
Everyone's eyes fell on Zhang Duzhi.
Zhang Duzhi laughed self-deprecatingly." The previous Heavenly Master lost his whereabouts due to an accident. I was unable to receive the Heavenly Master's inheritance. Therefore, there is no Heavenly Master on Mount Longhu."”
When Bai Suzhen heard this, she immediately understood that the person in front of her was the sect leader. She immediately begged,
"My sister is in danger. Sect Master, please give me some pills to save her…"
Zhang Duzhi didn't say anything. He glanced at the green snake and sighed,""With her injuries, I'm afraid only a level nine pill can extend her life.”
"Level-9 pill…"
The eyes of the elders behind him darkened.
A ninth-grade pill was rarely seen in the world.
There was no alchemist on Mount Longhu who could refine such a pill.
They only had a small amount of savings from their ancestors.
"I'm willing to exchange it with a thousand-year-old demon pill. Please give me the medicine, Sect Leader!" Bai Suzhen kowtowed.”
Her tone was resolute and without hesitation.
The elders had complicated expressions.
Zhang Chengxi even sighed," It's said that the Green Snake had risked his life to enter the Golden Mountain Monastery for 800 years. Now, the White Snake is willing to sacrifice his thousand-year-old demon core in exchange for my sister's life."”
"Such deep feelings, I really don't know what kind of person he is. What is a demon?"
His words came from the bottom of his heart. At the same time, he was indirectly pleading for Bai Suzhen. He wanted Zhang Duzhi to save her when he saw how deep her feelings were.
But it was a pity.
Zhang Duzhi shook his head and refused.
"If I give you medicine to save him, the Golden Mountain Temple will definitely blame you. Although my Longhu Mountain is not afraid, we will still have to bear a lot of trouble for this.”
"Moreover, it's possible that he'll be known for colluding with the demons.”
"Sigh…"
"White Snake, I hope you can understand and leave.”
When Bai Suzhen heard this, her eyes turned red and she said anxiously,"Sect Leader, please, give me the medicine.”
"I swear that even if I die and my soul disappears, I won't leak this matter, let alone cause trouble for your sect. I only beg you to be merciful and save my sister!!”
The green snake's only hope of survival was Mount Longhu. She could not give up.
However, since Zhang Duzhi had said that he would not save her, he definitely would not save her.
"There is no such thing as an impenetrable wall in this world. I understand how you feel, but I'm sorry that Mount Longhu can't help you.”
After Zhang Duzhi finished speaking, he turned around and returned to the mountain gate.
His attitude was very clear.
Bai Suzhen fell to the ground with tears on her face. She looked at her dying sister and gradually clenched her fists. Her eyes were determined.
"I must get the pill!"
Boom!
At this moment, Grandmaster Bai Suzhen's aura was unleashed. The aura of a demon king shook the entire Mount Longhu.
Zhang Duzhi and the other elders 'expressions changed, and then they became angry.
"White Snake, think carefully. If you dare to invade Mount Longhu, you will definitely die!”
Bai Suzhen smiled sadly." Even if I have to die today, I want to get the pill. Taoist masters, please forgive me for being disrespectful!"”
As soon as he finished speaking.
A great battle was about to erupt.
"Wait!"
But at this moment, Zhang Chengxi suddenly stopped him.
Bai Suzhen's sad eyes fell on him.
Zhang Chengxi looked straight at her and said in a deep voice,"I know that you are eager to save Green Snake, but you can't afford to provoke the foundation of Mount Longhu.”
The five sacred lands of Taoism did not have any martial grandmasters on the surface.
But in reality, which family didn't have a foundation?
Zhang Chengxi could guarantee that once the white snake went all out, it would force its way into Mount Longhu.
There must be a foundation to make her die here!
"This is the only way I have left…"
Bai Suzhen's eyes were filled with sorrow.
She had cultivated for a thousand years and had never killed anyone, let alone done anything unreasonable.
However, for the sake of Green Snake, even if she had to die, she would still charge into Mount Longhu to obtain the pill!
"No, you still have another way." Zhang Chengxi shook his head.
Bai Suzhen's heart trembled.”
After hesitating for a second, Zhang Chengxi said," There's a South Mountain in Jiangshi City. Oh, it should be called Zhongnan Mountain now. There's a Wuwei Taoist Temple on Zhongnan Mountain. The abbot of the abbey might be able to save your sister."”
"Really?" Bai Suzhen asked anxiously.
Zhang Chengxi said," I can't guarantee that. However, that Abbey Dean should have the best alchemy skills in the world. I guess he should have ninth-grade pills."”
As soon as he said this, the elders of Longhu Mountain looked displeased.
Suppressing the world in pill dao?
With Mount Longhu around, who dared to say that their alchemy attainments could surpass theirs?
Zhang Chengxi obviously knew what Bai Suzhen was thinking. He smiled and took out a jade bottle from his pocket. Then, he poured out two level-7 pills.
"Did you see that?"
"These two level-7 pills were given to Wudang Mountain by the Abbey Dean.”
At this point, Zhang Chengxi could not help but laugh." It's funny that the Abbey Dean told us that eating too many level-7 pills is not good for the body..."
"You have to know that we can only eat a few tier 7 medicinal pills in our lifetime.”
"You can imagine how many medicinal pills he has, and how insignificant they are.”
"For such a person to have a level-9 pill, I'm afraid there's nothing impossible.”
Bai Suzhen's expression changed. Finally, she bowed deeply to Zhang Chengxi."Thank you for your guidance, Daoist Priest!"
Closely after that, she turned into a white rainbow and headed for Nanshan Hill of Jiangshi City.
After she left.
The elders of Longhu Mountain returned to the mountain gate. Zhang Duzhi could not help but sigh,""Elder Zhang is really resourceful. With just a few words, she was lured away. Otherwise, Mount Longhu would really be in trouble today.”
"Um…"
Zhang Chengxi hesitated for a moment." Sect Leader, you've misunderstood. I didn't lie to her. The Abbey Dean indeed treats seventh-grade pills like chaff."”
"Ah?"
Zhang Duzhi and the elder behind him were dumbfounded.
……
……
On Mount Zhongnan.
Inside Wuwei Daoist Temple.
Jiang Chen, who had rushed back yesterday, was sitting on a rattan chair, enjoying Lu Qingyi's massage.
The black dog was combing through the treasures that it had plundered from the Golden Mountain Temple.
"Someone is coming."
Suddenly, Jiang Chen opened his eyes and shot a ray of light into the distance.
When he saw Bai Suzhen and Green Snake, he was stunned.
"Have I been exposed?"
He remembered that he had deliberately concealed his figure and aura when he attacked the Golden Mountain Temple.
How did Bai Suzhen find him?
He had some doubts in his heart, but now was not the time to be curious about why they had come.
Because they were about to fly up the mountain.
"There's a killing formation here. Stop and retreat!”
Jiang Chen shouted.
It shook the entire Southern Mountain.
The black dog and Lü Qingyi immediately raised their heads and looked into the distance.
A streak of white light hurriedly landed on the ground after hearing Jiang Chen's shout.
Bai Suzhen knelt at the foot of the mountain with tears all over her face.
"Bai Suzhen from Qingcheng Mountain requests an audience with the Master of Zhongnan Mountain!”
