Chapter 2154: The Sacred Bamboo Tree

"Everyone, please stop." The woman in white said softly.

Although her voice was not loud, it had an invisible power that made everyone present afraid to act rashly.

"Sword cultivator?"

The white-haired old man narrowed his eyes slightly, with a look of fear in his eyes.

The one-armed man was also a little surprised. He was silent for a moment and asked cautiously: "Is your Excellency a master of the Fantasy Feather Sword Sect?"

Bai Qingruo glanced at everyone and said calmly: "I am not from the Huan Yu Sword Sect."

"Then why did you stop us?"

"You misunderstood. I have no intention of stopping you. It's just that my master doesn't like making noise. I would like to ask you to change places and fight elsewhere."

After hearing this, the one-armed man's face became uncertain. After a moment, he said in a deep voice: "Fellow Taoist, you are acting too domineering. Today is our battle with Menghua Sect and Leiling Pavilion. We seem to have the upper hand, but you It's unreasonable to interfere!"

"I don't mean to offend you, but I just made it very clear that you are not allowed to fight here."

Bai Qingruo spoke again. Although his voice was soft, there was an undeniable momentum.

The one-armed man and the white-haired old man looked at each other with gloomy expressions.

"I am the master of the Ghost Sect, and this is the master of the Huangsha Palace. We have a very good personal relationship with the Huanyu Sword Sect. I advise you not to meddle in other people's business, otherwise you will get burned!" the white-haired old man said in a deep voice.

"Are you threatening me?"

Bai Qingruo was a little sulky and said coldly: "I'll count to three. If you don't retreat, don't blame me for being ruthless with my sword!"

"one!"

As soon as the first sound came out, the one-armed man's expression changed, and he pinched the magic formula in his hand, as if he wanted to fight her.

But the white-haired old man next to him immediately stopped him.

"Stop being reckless!"

The old man secretly sent a message: "This little girl is probably the reinforcements invited by Ling Xuan. She has the cultivation level of Tongxuan realm and is also a swordsman. With the combined strength of you and me, we may not be her opponent! In addition, there are also With Ling Xuan and Ding Yi watching closely, the situation is not good for us. "

The one-armed man was just impulsive. He quickly calmed down and said in the same voice: "Then according to what Duan Degong said, what should we do?"

Duan De smiled slightly, with a lewd look in his eyes: "This little girl is born well. She must have good looks and temperament. Have you forgotten what the eldest son of our Huan Yu Sword Sect likes?"

"oh?"

The one-armed man understood, and he also laughed: "Sure enough, Jiang is still hot! This trick of borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha, I have to admire him!"

The two communicated briefly for a moment, and their expressions were no longer as angry as before.

Duan De glanced at Bai Qingruo and said with a faint smile: "Okay, since fellow Taoist insists on taking this initiative, our Ghost Sect and Huangsha Palace will sell you face today. We will see you later!"

After saying that, without looking at Ling Xuan and others, he waved his hand and shouted: "Let's go!"

At that moment, everyone stopped fighting.

The monks from the Ghost Sect came to Duan De's side, while the monks from the Huangsha Palace followed the one-armed man.

The two of them looked at Bai Qingruo meaningfully, and then led their disciples to fly away.

After the monks from these two sects left, the tense mind of the woman in red finally relaxed a little.

She quickly came to Bai Qingruo, cupped her hands and said, "Thank you so much for helping this fellow Taoist. I am Ling Xuan, the leader of the Menghua Sect. Do you know your surname?"

"I'm Bai Qingruo."

"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Bai. Nice to meet you!"

Ling Xuan said, pointing to the middle-aged scholar beside her, and introduced: "This is the master of Leiling Pavilion, Ding Yi."

The scholar also bowed his hands to Bai Qingruo.

Bai Qingruo nodded slightly in response.

"Thankfully Sister Bai took action just now, otherwise both of our sects would have been in danger."

Ling Xuan seemed to be a "familiar" person. After talking for a while, she called Bai Qingruo "sister".

Bai Qingruo frowned slightly, but did not refute.

She pondered for a moment and asked: "What is the deep hatred between you, and why are you fighting to the death?"

"It's not like they want to take advantage of the situation..."

Ling Xuan sighed and looked Bai Qingruo up and down for a moment: "I think my sister is a foreign monk. She doesn't know much about our power in Yunmeng Mountain, right?"

Bai Qingruo nodded.

Ling Xuan said leisurely: "Our Yunmeng Mountain Range stretches for millions of miles, and there are more than a hundred sects of various sizes. Among them, the three most powerful sects are: Huanyu Sword Sect, Demonic Sound Valley and Qianfu These three sects are called the 'Three Great Sects', and the other sects must rely on one of them to gain a foothold in this mountain range."

"Originally, the three great sects stood together and maintained the balance of power in the Yunmeng Mountains. Until twenty years ago... the Huanyu Sword Sect got an unknown opportunity and suddenly surpassed the Demonic Sound Valley and the Thousand Talisman Sect. After that, The conflict is getting worse day by day, forcing Moyin Valley and Qianfu Sect to unite."

"Half a year ago, Demonic Sound Valley issued a notice and decided to join forces with Qianfu Sect to attack the Huanyu Sword Sect, which is also the so-called 'Three Sects' Discussion.' But no one expected that the final result was that the Huanyu Sword Sect would be greatly defeated. Complete victory! Since then, both Demonic Sound Valley and Qianfu Sect have been in ruins and no longer have the strength to fight against the Huan Yu Sword Sect..."

"After the decline of the two great sects, the sects that had previously taken refuge with them were also suppressed by the Huanyu Sword Sect. The former sect master of my Menghua Sect and several masters were killed by the Huanyu Sword Sect. The Huangsha Palace and the Ghost Soul Sect were originally Not as good as our sect, but relying on the support of Huan Yu Sword Sect, they also want to add insult to injury, seize our sect’s resources, and enslave our sect’s disciples… That’s why we have today’s battle.”

Ling Xuan finished speaking in one breath, as if she had been holding back her anger for a long time, and now she found someone to talk to.

"That's it." Bai Qingruo nodded slightly.

"Sister Bai, I am very grateful for your help, but Duan De and Yu Wenxiong are narrow-minded and will retaliate. I am afraid that they will be unfavorable to my sister afterwards... If my sister has nothing to do, why don't you come to my Menghua Sect to stay for a few days? I can take care of you," Ling Xuan said with a smile on her face.

After hearing this, Bai Qingruo shook his head and said, "No, the reason why I took action was not to help you, but because my teacher doesn't like making noise."

"teacher?"

Ling Xuan's eyes flashed, she looked around for a moment, and asked with a smile: "Where is your teacher? Why doesn't he show up? I want to thank him for his kindness."

"My teacher likes to be quiet and won't see you. You two fellow Taoists should lead your disciples out of here quickly." Bai Qingruo said calmly.

"That's...ok."

Ling Xuan originally wanted to please Bai Qingruo, but seeing her lukewarm expression, she finally gave up.

"In any case, I have accepted Sister Bai's kindness this time. If sister encounters any trouble, she can come to Menghua Sect to find me at any time."

"That's right, fellow Taoists are always welcome at Leiling Pavilion."

Ling Xuan and Ding Yi both thanked Bai Qingruo, and then led their disciples away from here...

After everyone had gone away, Bai Qingruo made a magic spell and soared upward into the sky.

She saw a white cloud in the distance. As she arrived, the clouds dispersed to both sides, revealing the figures of Liang Yan, Xiong Yuer and others.

"Reporting to Master, all the monks fighting below have been expelled by the disciples. The disciples checked carefully again to confirm that no one was staying nearby." Bai Qingruo reported back respectfully.

Liang Yan glanced at her, with a half-smile on his face.

"My master asked you to expel everyone. You just treat them equally. Why do you want to intervene in their fights?"

Bai Qingruo was stunned for a moment and said subconsciously: "Didn't the disciple intervene?"

"Still want to quibble?"

Liang Yan laughed and scolded: "If you really treated everyone equally, you should have stood outside the court after separating the four people, but you chose to stand in the middle, facing Duan De and Yu Wenxiong, and blocking Ling Xuan and Ding Yi behind you. If from From Duan De’s point of view, aren’t you obviously trying to protect Ling Xuan?”

"This..." Bai Qingruo was speechless.

Liang Yan added: "I know what you are thinking. Seeing that Ling Xuan is weak and Duan De and Yu Wenxiong are promiscuous, you have likes and dislikes in your heart and subconsciously choose to take sides."

"Well..." Bai Qingruo nodded, his voice as light as a mosquito.

Liang Yan sighed: "Qingruo, this is not the Spirit Snake Valley. Not all female cultivators are as innocent and harmless as you think. Let's just talk about the 'Ling Xuan' you just rescued. She is not a simple thing. You Instead of showing any thanks for helping her, she wants to drag you into the whirlpool and tie you to the Menghua Sect. "

"Master... I know I was wrong." Bai Qingruo bit her thin lips and lowered her head to admit her mistake.

Liang Yan waved his hand: "I don't mean to blame you, I just want to remind all of you that in Dongyun Lingzhou, there will always be times when my master is not with you, so you have to be careful about everything."

"Yes, Master!"

Everyone responded respectfully.

Liang Yan nodded slightly.

He glanced at the mountains below and told everyone: "I plan to stay here for a few days, and you will patrol the nearby peaks. Don't let anyone get close."

"clear!"

The seven disciples all followed the order and left.

Liang Yan pondered for a moment, pinched the magic formula in his hand, and turned into escaping light, piercing the air, and flew towards the high mountain surrounded by nine peaks.

It didn't take long for him to land on the top of the mountain.

The huge spiritual consciousness spread around like a tide, shrouding the nine nearby peaks...

After a while, Liang Yan withdrew his consciousness.

"The spiritual energy here is very thin. No sect ruins have been found, and no monks have even built a cave here...Senior Tree Spirit, is the treasure you mentioned really here?"

"Can't be wrong..."

The old voice sounded slowly in Liang Yan's sea of ​​consciousness: "The treasure is under this mountain peak. If you use the earth escape technique to detect eight thousand miles downward, you can see a hidden spiritual vein."

"good."

Liang Yan did not hesitate, and after simply placing a few restrictions around him that could sense the monk's breath, he pinched the magic formula and escaped into the mountains.

He probed all the way down, and there were gray-brown rocks along the way, without any fluctuations in spiritual energy.

Until seven thousand miles below, the surrounding space suddenly changed, emitting a green glow, and a faint spiritual energy circulated around.

Although this spiritual energy was very thin, it still made Liang Yan look excited.

He continued to go deeper, and after about nine hundred miles, he saw a crystal clear spiritual vein in the distance.

"What a spiritual vein!"

At this time, Liang Yan admired the old tree spirit very much.

You know, there are more than a hundred sects in Yunmeng Mountain Range, large and small. They have taken root here for so many years, but they have not discovered this spiritual vein.

When the old tree spirit just landed in Dongyun Lingzhou, he could sense it from thousands of miles away. This can no longer be explained by common sense...

Liang Yan narrowed his eyes and looked carefully, and found that this spiritual vein was really not small.

Although it is not as high as the level of Ziwei Dragon Vein, it is also a large spiritual vein. The nine major sects seen in Wushuang Domain that year probably did not have such a spiritual vein as a foundation...

As for why its spiritual energy did not radiate, it was because countless dark green vines were entangled on this spiritual vein!

These vines are like a big hand, pinching the spiritual vein tightly, preventing its spiritual energy from spreading, causing the spiritual energy in this area to be very thin.

It is for this reason that the sects in Yunmeng Mountain regard this place as a barren land. No one comes to build a sect, and even casual cultivators do not build caves here.

Liang Yan pondered for a moment and spread his consciousness outward.

When this spiritual power came to the edge of the vine, it was actually absorbed by the vine, as if it fell into a bottomless abyss...

"Huh?"

Liang Yan's eyes showed surprise.

This vine that can devour his spiritual power is definitely not an ordinary thing!

While thinking, the old tree spirit slowly said: "This is one of the three sacred trees of my wood clan: the Youhuang sacred tree!"

"The sacred tree of the wood clan?"

Liang Yan instantly became interested and asked with a smile: "What is special about this tree?"

"It has the characteristics of devouring and growing. Only a small piece can make countless people in my wood clan crazy." The old tree spirit sighed softly.

"So, you sensed the existence of this sacred tree and concluded that there is a spiritual vein here?"

"Yes."

The old tree spirit said leisurely: "I have a special sense of the sacred tree. This is my innate magical power, and the Youhuang sacred tree likes to coexist with spiritual veins. This is its characteristic, so I concluded that there must be a spiritual vein here!"

"So that's it..."

Liang Yan nodded.

The next moment, he continued to perform the earth escape technique and approached the spiritual vein.

As he approached, the vines entrenched nearby seemed to wake up, like long whips whipping Liang Yan from different directions.

But how powerful was Liang Yan? He didn't even need to draw his sword. With just a thought, a leisurely sword energy swirled around him, and he instantly chopped the vines close to him into pieces.

He moved forward all the way, unimpeded, and in the end, the vines knew they couldn't do anything to him, and fell down as if they had resigned themselves to it.

Soon, Liang Yan reached the sky above the spiritual vein.

Looking down, he saw that a towering tree had grown in the middle of the spiritual vein.

This tree was a thousand feet high, and it regarded the spiritual vein as soil, breaking out of the ground on it. It was dark green all over, and exuded an aura like a deep cold pool...

"That's it, the sacred bamboo tree." The old tree spirit said leisurely.
