Explosive dirt, the plan succeeds
This time, Bai Tianyu did not disappoint the Pot of Baseness.
The dirt they presented was utterly despicable.
This directly caused his progress to increase a hundredfold.
A look of joy appeared on his face as he thanked them and left.
Xiao Yuan unconsciously touched his neck and felt a chill down his back.
The secret Bai Tianyu spoke of was extremely confidential.
Moreover, it involves the acts committed by the Heaven-Praying Hall that are shameful to the righteous path.
To seize a Mid-Grade Spirit Artifact.
They then secretly sent men to massacre the city, White Frost City in Lan Province vanished overnight.
Countless people died or were injured.
Countless innocent people also lost their lives.
Later, in order to maintain the righteous image of the Heaven-Praying Hall, they sent people to investigate the destruction of White Frost City.
And they falsely accused the Devil Race.
Bai Tianyu was one of the members of that investigation team.
Therefore, he knows a lot about this matter.
It was also because of that incident that he received many rewards from the sect for his efficient handling of affairs, which led to him ranking second only to Aofeng among the inner disciples.
I just didn't expect it.
With all these secrets revealed, Xiao Yuan now admires the Dragon Lord's plan even more.
This method of seduction is a thousand times, ten thousand times better than Cheng Renmei.
After all.
Cheng Renmei is simply about helping people change their appearance.
However, among cultivators, those who are truly focused on physical appearance are still in the minority.
What everyone really wants is strength.
Or perhaps it's a treasure and fortuitous opportunity on the path of cultivation.
The Dragon Lord cleverly took advantage of this.
This tactic of Pin Heihei is incredibly effective in both its speed of dissemination and its impact.
The Pot of Baseness is also like a hook.
It brought out the greed and desire in their hearts.
Faced with top-grade talismans and first-grade pills, almost no one would remain unmoved.
Let alone disciples.
Even deacons and elders would find it hard to resist such temptation.
At this time...
A figure appeared in front of Xiao Yuan.
This person was none other than the inner hall elder who had previously Heaven-Praying Hall for its upright conduct and proper conduct.
Although he was an elder of the inner palace.
However, they are not truly high-ranking members of the sect; within the inner hall, they belong to a relatively low-ranking position.
I saw that he had followed me.
Xiao Yuan casually asked, "What advice does this elder have for me?"
"Shopkeeper, it was inconvenient with so many people around. Now that it's just the two of us, I've come to find you a shortcut to speed up our progress."
The elder of the inner hall spoke somewhat hesitantly.
Xiao Yuan, with an understanding look in his eyes, said, "I understand, I understand..."
The wicked and ugly face of the Pot of Baseness was also presented to the Elder of the Inner Palace.
The elder hesitated for a moment, but ultimately could not resist the desire for a first-grade elixir.
"By the way, shopkeeper, could you please excuse me for a moment?"
"You're quite embarrassed..."
Xiao Yuan nodded and walked away.
Now.
The old man in the inner palace slowly spoke to the Pot of Baseness:
"I was originally a steward in the outer hall, but I committed a serious crime and offended two elders in the inner hall, making it impossible for me to stay in the Heaven-Praying Hall. So I found Venerable Mei and had her change my appearance so I could live with a new identity. Later, I followed Venerable Mei all the way, and after I was promoted to an elder in the inner hall, I secretly murdered those two. They died without ever knowing that it was I who killed them."
After the elder of the inner palace finished speaking...
The Pot of Baseness also gleamed with an evil light.
It's obvious that it passed the test.
Upon seeing this, the inner hall elder was overjoyed and summoned Xiao Yuan from afar.
Xiao Yuan nodded and said, "Alright, the progress of your lottery mechanism has now increased a hundredfold."
"Thank you very much, shopkeeper..."
After the inner temple elders left.
More people came in succession.
Things that couldn't be said in front of many people, are now poured out.
Perhaps not as big as the scandals revealed by Bai Tianyu and the inner hall elders.
It's still quite a lot, though.
A wide variety of things.
For example, which elder cheated on whom.
For example, an elder might secretly collude with a certain place, use Heaven-Praying Technique, and make a fortune.
For example, one of his disciples had a chaotic private life and was known as a time management master.
The enormous Heaven-Praying Hall.
There are always many despicable things that go unnoticed.
Even Xiao Yuan didn't expect that so many people would be willing to share it.
Although some people, like the inner temple elders, sent Xiao Yuan away.
But this is not a Pot of Baseness at all.
Rather, it was a Low-Grade Spirit Artifact used to record sound and images.
It is considered a very rare treasure.
After all, ordinary Law Treasure can only transmit sound, while this one can store not only sound and images.
Moreover, it can store a lot.
The Dragon Lord says this is called having a large memory!
Before we knew it, the sun was setting.
The hilltop where the Pin Heihei, shady merchant was located was still bustling with people.
It was quite a lively scene.
Only.
But then a series of angry voices rang out.
"Damn it! All our efforts have been in vain! All our efforts have been in vain! This is completely useless now. No matter who we ask for help later on, it won't make any progress at all!"
"That's true. The Grade One Treasure Pill I drew has also reached its time limit. And I even betrayed my best brother, sigh..."
"What did you say? You betrayed me?"
A male disciple, as tall as an iron tower, grabbed another person by the collar.
"Brother Han, please calm down. Han Xiong, please calm down..."
It's not just them.
Bai Tianyu's face also darkened.
Looking at his jade pendant, the time limit on it had just expired.
His first-grade pill was also rendered useless!
Many people around him were also deeply disappointed.
Their jade pendants, which were part of their mechanism, had all dimmed.
This jade pendant is a sub-piece separated from the lottery mechanism.
This is to let them know their progress more clearly.
It's also easier to view.
At its core is still that huge lottery mechanism.
"Senior Brother Bai, Elder Yu, let's go find them and have a word with them!"
One of the disciples was filled with anger.
With so many people's jade pendants expiring simultaneously, the Pin Heihei merchants involved in this scheme must provide an explanation.
The group stormed angrily to the lottery machine.
However.
At this point, there wasn't a single merchant in sight.
Only the lottery machine remained, sitting there empty.
"Oh no! We've been tricked!"
The inner palace elders were the first to react.
He had just tried to search for the presence of those people, but was horrified to find that he couldn't find them anywhere on the entire mountain.
They have clearly fled far away.
"Elder Yu, what should we do?"
Many disciples have also become aware of the current situation.
"How could they have vanished without a trace, without us noticing a single clue? How is that possible?"
One of the disciples spoke up in confusion.
Bai Tianyu sighed deeply and said, "Don't forget, they can easily produce top-grade talismans, so how could they not have escape technique talismans!"
Upon hearing this, everyone...
It suddenly dawned on me.
Yes, with a top-grade talisman in hand, they could indeed escape without anyone noticing.
Another disciple stepped forward and said, "Fortunately, we didn't suffer any losses, only some energy expenditure. In my opinion, we should take it as a lesson learned."
After he finished speaking...
People occasionally agree with this.
Everyone understood the unspoken agreement.
They have all committed numerous scandals to varying degrees.
If this gets investigated, what will happen to my reputation?
Among them, Elder Yu and Bai Tianyu were the most melancholy.
The two exchanged a glance.
They decided to pretend nothing had happened.
