Chapter 390 Past Secrets

"It is Lancai Realm's intention to start a war with the demon clan first." Wushuang Zhenren looked at Lin Mu with a worried look on his face: "Now we have no way out and can only rely on Lancai Realm and obey their command. Therefore, before the war begins, you Lingji cultivators will go to provoke trouble and see the attitude of the demon clan."

"If they don't fight, you will work hard to hunt demons and erode the strength of the demon clan." Wushuang Zhenren paused for a moment and said: "If they fight, we can send Jindan cultivators to attack in a big way."

Luo Yan and Fen Ning were standing by, looking solemn and nodding from time to time.

"You are the strongest among the spiritual solitude cultivators in the Tianxiao Realm. You will be the one to lead the battle!" Wushuang Zhenren said solemnly: "Of course, for your safety, before the attack, you must reach the point where you can condense the golden elixir at any time. Once the cultivators and the demons officially go to war, you will retreat to condense the golden elixir, and then join the battle. How about it?"

Lin Mu's face changed, and he stood there in silence.

Wushuang Zhenren's words were righteous, but in terms of prestige, Gu Yun, as the young master of Wushuang Jianmen, had more appeal than him. In terms of strength, Gu Yun was no worse. Apart from him, no one in the Tianxiao Realm could compete with him.

However, Wushuang Zhenren did not let Gu Yun lead the fight. What was his intention?

Was it to save his own face?

Absolutely not.

This is not a good job, and few people are willing to do it. When attacking the demons, the leader will inevitably be closely watched by the demons. The stronger the enemy, the greater the danger!

If the demon race suddenly sends out an eighth-level or even ninth-level demon beast, he will be in great danger!

"Don't worry, I won't let you die." Wushuang Zhenren seemed to see Lin Mu's concerns and smiled slightly: "The Lancai Realm will send powerful cultivators to come. Even now, there are already several Yuanying stage cultivators gathered in Tianxiao Realm. I will arrange a Yuanying stage cultivator to secretly protect your safety."

"This is a great opportunity to train." Wushuang Zhenren smiled and said: "Guoyun will be with you at that time. He is still a little impetuous and needs to hone his character in battle before he can make progress and get out of trouble. I'm reborn. I'm relieved to have you by my side to take care of me."

Luo Yan also said at this time: "The demon race is powerful. You are likely to enhance your understanding of the sword in the battles, and there is great hope that you can comprehend the three-shot sword technique! I told you before that the foundation is extremely important. The stronger you are now, even if you only have a slight advantage over others, after condensing the golden elixir, this advantage will multiply and become an insurmountable gap!"

Lin Mu couldn't refuse anymore, so he smiled and nodded in agreement.

As Luo Yan said, danger and opportunity coexist. Perhaps this is also an opportunity for his sword attainment to advance by leaps and bounds.

If he can really comprehend the three-shot sword technique in this battle between humans and demons, and successfully condense the golden elixir, he can directly impact the fusion sword technique!

In the entire Tianxiao Realm, there are only two people whose sword attainments have reached the fusion sword technique, Luo Yan and Wushuang Zhenren.

As for Yinxin, that is a higher realm.

Seeing Lin Mu agreed, Wushuang Zhenren couldn't help but smile and said, "Then I will go back immediately to help you refine the Dan Linggen. Once all the Dan Linggen are refined, it will be time for you to go to the Misty Forest!"

Lin Mu smiled and nodded: "Everything is up to you, senior, and I have no objection."

After speaking, Lin Mu took out a jade slip, wrote down the five elements of the nine Dan Linggens needed, and then handed the jade slip to Wushuang Zhenren.

Wushuang Zhenren took the jade slip, looked at Lin Mu with approval, nodded slightly, and then turned to Yinxin and said, "The catastrophe is coming, we need to plan ahead and make all preparations. I have invited the leaders of several major sects to my cave, why don't we discuss it in detail to avoid being in a hurry when the war comes."

Yinxin nodded slightly, and the two left immediately.

Fen Ning exchanged a few words of greeting and also returned to his cave.

At this time, Luo Yan looked at Lin Mu and said, "I have something to tell you. Come to my cave."

Immediately, Lin Mu followed Luo Yan and walked into his cave. The two sat down on the left and right of the rosewood table in the cave.

Luo Yan poured tea himself, and the clear fragrance of tea made people intoxicated.

"I wonder what the elder wants to see me for?" Lin Mu put the tea on the table and asked directly.

Luo Yan picked up the purple glazed cup, took a sip, and then looked at Lin Mu and said, "I see that you are uneasy. Do you have any ideas?"

Lin Mu was suddenly shocked. Luo Yan was too sharp-eyed. He thought he had hidden it very well, but he still saw it.

"My disciple is preparing to condense the golden elixir, but everything is not so easy, especially my parents and Shitou also need to condense the golden elixir. When I think of this, I am overwhelmed with worries and can't sit or lie down." Lin Mu didn't want to tell the truth, so he couldn't help but talk nonsense and make up a few words to fool him.

No matter what Yinxin thinks, he cannot question him or even mention it.

If Yinxin means well, he will hurt his feelings if he asks directly.

If Yinxin has bad intentions, he will only mess up his position if he acts rashly, and Yinxin will be on guard against him in advance, or even take action directly!

You must not act rashly, but wait and see.

Luo Yan put down the purple Liusha cup and smiled: "Don't worry about it. Now we have occupied three of the ten peaks. In the future, there will be an endless supply of spiritual stones. I will let your parents and the stones condense golden elixirs just by relying on the spiritual stones!"

Feeling uneasy, Luo Yan pondered for a moment and took the initiative to say: "Although you haven't condensed the golden elixir yet, your strength has already surpassed that of ordinary golden elixir cultivators. I should tell you something."

"What is it?" Lin Mu asked with a move in his heart.

"Do you know why Yinxin and I value you so much?" Luo Yan asked Lin Mu directly.

Lin Mu shook his head slightly: "Disciple doesn't know."

Looking at Luo Yan, Lin Mu wondered: "In fact, I often wonder, there are many talented disciples in Qianyu Sword Sect, and my qualifications are extremely ordinary. Why do the elders value me alone?"

Luo Yan smiled and nodded: "You are confused, and it is reasonable. There is a secret in this, and I have never told you."

"What is the secret?" Lin Mu was very curious and asked hurriedly.

"About Fairy Nishang, about you." Luo Yan said word by word.

Lin Mu's heart was shocked and his body trembled slightly.

What does Luo Yan want to say to him?

He had a faint expectation, but also fear. He suppressed the storm in his heart and waited for Luo Yan's next words.

"More than a hundred years ago, Fairy Nishang came from Lancai Realm and stayed for a short time. Then, for some reason, she left in a hurry." Luo Yan said slowly: "At that time, I vaguely realized that this matter was related to Senior Brother Yinxin. Sure enough, not long after, Fairy Nishang hurried back again, but few people knew about it that time, and Yunmeng was sent back by her and asked me to help take care of her."

"At that time, Senior Brother Yinxin had been harmed by Shi Weihan, but under Yinxin's obstruction, she did not go to Shi Weihan for trouble. In other words, this was also an opportunity. Sure enough, Senior Brother Yinxin later realized the sword meaning, and his sword attainments surpassed Wushuang Zhenren." Luo Yan said Yinxin with admiration.

Lin Mu also admired him very much. Yinxin was really a peerless genius who could do things that ordinary people could not do.

"But, what does this have to do with me?" Lin Mu asked hurriedly.

"You can enter Qianyu Sword Sect, in fact, it has been destined." Luo Yan seemed to be lost in memories, and said leisurely: "When Fairy Nishang returned for the second time, she specifically asked me and Brother Yinxin to accept you into the sect and train you carefully, saying that you are the hope of Tianxiao Realm and even Lancai Realm, and you can withstand the great catastrophe when it comes in the future!"

"I can withstand the great catastrophe?" Lin Mu was surprised: "How is this possible?"

Lin Mu knew his own strength very well.

"We didn't believe it at first." Luo Yan smiled bitterly, "Especially when I went to Yanman City and secretly investigated, I found that your talent was only five elements of spiritual roots. I was extremely disappointed at that time, but Fairy Nishang was already a late-stage cultivator of Concentration at that time. She had a unique vision and was far better than me. Naturally, she would not say anything nonsense. As a last resort, I had to go back and see what Senior Brother Yinxin said."

"As soon as I returned to the sect, Shi Weihan summoned me and wanted me to go out and recruit disciples. At that time, he had just become the head of Qianyu Sword Sect not long ago and urgently needed to stabilize the foundation of the sect. At that time, I thought of you. After going back and discussing with Senior Brother Yinxin, we decided to accept you into the sect."

So it's really like this!

Lin Mu was shocked. It turned out that everything had been planned. His face changed: "Was the famine caused by you?"

Luo Yan was stunned, and then sighed: "The famine was indeed caused by Qianyu Sword Sect, but the rain ban curse was not cast by me. When I went there, you had been suffering from drought for several years, and I just took action to eliminate it."

Damn it!

Lin Mu thought of the many villagers who died, and he was filled with grief.

If it was really a natural disaster, it would be fine. It can only be said that fate is unfair, and there is nothing he can do. But when he heard Luo Yan say that the disaster that made him unforgettable was just man-made, he could no longer suppress his anger.

"This is just a common method used by all the major sects." Seeing Lin Mu's face change, Luo Yan hurriedly said: "For us Jindan cultivators, mortals are just ants. You won't know when we set up restrictions, but you will definitely know when we lift the restrictions."

Luo Yan quickly said: "Once a disciple is accepted as a disciple by a Jindan cultivator, he will definitely be grateful to him and be devoted to him. This trick has long been kept secret, including the Wushuang Sword Sect."

"Can the lives of those mortals be trampled on so easily?" Lin Mu was still angry: "You are just a A bunch of executioners, with blood on their hands!"

"It's useless to say these things now." Luo Yan's face was stern, and he said seriously: "I know that if I tell you the truth, you will be angry, but I still have to say it. The reason why I didn't accept you as my apprentice is because I feel guilty and don't want to use you for this little favor."

"The mistake has been made and cannot be changed." Luo Yan said helplessly: "This is also Shi Weihan's intention. At that time, he was all-powerful, and I just followed his orders. Many things are beyond my control, and I have no choice."

Luo Yan's tone was indescribably sad.

Lin Mu's heart, which was intertwined with anger, gradually sank, and he was indescribably sad.

Seeing that Lin Mu did not move, Luo Yan's expression gradually eased: "This world is so cruel. Those with low strength and humbleness can only be fooled without knowing it. Not to mention those ordinary mortals, even for us cultivators, isn't it the same! Wushuang Zhenren is already a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, but he still has to listen to the orders of the cultivators in the Spiritual Silence stage of Lancai Realm. The entire Tianxiao Realm will also become a battlefield between cultivators and monsters, at the mercy of others."

Lin Mu's face was gloomy, and he said softly: "Those people died unjustly. Although cultivators and mortals are not at the same level, they were mortals after all, and they must have some humanity."

"Humanity?" Luo Yan sneered: "Don't talk about humanity, that's useless. If you want to talk about humanity and do what you want to do, you must have strong strength. Only strength is the most useful, and everything else is empty talk."

Lin Mu felt extremely sad and couldn't speak for a long time.

"In fact, things are not as dark as you think." Luo Yan said solemnly: "Such things have only happened a few times since I became an elder. On the contrary, those mortals affiliated with Qianyu Sword Sect are all protected by Qianyu Sword Sect. After all, the foundation of cultivators still lies in mortals. As long as mortals have the qualifications for cultivation, they have the hope of becoming cultivators. If they have great luck and perseverance, they have great hope of condensing golden elixir!"

"Isn't that what you are like!" Luo Yan looked at Lin Mu and said seriously.

Lin Mu was stunned and couldn't speak.
