The Five-Colored Lotuses, Something Feels Wrong
Fortuitous Fate Secret Realm, on the spaceship in Xunxian Town,
Li Yunjing was talking with True Person Liu of the Departing Maple Sect.
"Yunjing, I just observed those eight disciples of your sect. They have a solid foundation and are promising talents."
It's unbelievable that your Luozhen Sect has produced eight such individuals in such a short time.
Looking at the Departing Maple Sect again, they're facing a talent shortage, alas...
True Person Liu sighed.
The decline of the Departing Maple Sect was foreshadowed.
Among the newly recruited disciples, few have stood out.
Not to mention the kind of talent who can shoulder a major responsibility on their own.
This situation is not limited to this batch of new disciples.
The same was true for the previous session and even the session before that.
Generally speaking, when a sect or Lineage encounters this situation,
For three consecutive generations, no one has emerged capable of shouldering the responsibility alone.
Then you need to be careful.
True Person Liu is Golden Core True Person of the Departing Maple Sect.
I'm very anxious about this.
He didn't want the Departing Maple Sect to collapse the moment he died.
How can I face the ancestors of the Departing Maple Sect now?
Seeing the eight disciples of the Luozhen Sect, True Person Liu felt even more envious and jealous.
The Luozhen Sect, once a declining minor sect, has developed to its current state.
True Person Liu really wanted to learn from Li Yunjing and see how Li Yunjing had managed to do it.
Li Yunjing chuckled dryly, unable to impart his experience.
Can he say that everything in the Luozhen Sect is due to the divine intervention of its founder?
Even if others believe it, you can't just say it casually.
This is a secret of the Luozhen Sect; how can outsiders possibly know it?
"True Person Liu, there's no need to worry. I observe that the fortune of the Departing Maple Sect is still strong, and it won't decline immediately."
"Perhaps at the next Immortal-Seeking Assembly, Departing Maple Sect will be able to find suitable talent." Li Yunjing could only offer this consolation.
True Person Liu smiled and said nothing.
Li Yunjing shifted his gaze and looked around.
But suddenly they saw a group of cultivators who were wrapped up tightly.
These monks only showed their eyes.
Li Yunjing sensed something was wrong at first glance.
He felt very uncomfortable with this group of monks.
At this moment, the Golden Core within Li Yunjing's Dantian was also trembling slightly.
It seemed to be a warning to Li Yunjing to be careful of these people.
"True Person Liu, those cultivators are..."
Li Yunjing pointed at the group of people and asked True Person Liu beside him.
True Person Liu looked in the direction Li Yunjing pointed.
"Oh, someone from Worry-Free Fortress." True Person Liu's eyes showed disdain.
"These guys like to do petty theft and other despicable things, and they're despised by everyone."
"If it weren't for the current lord of Worry-Free Fortress's profound understanding and proactive reforms, Worry-Free Fortress -Worry-Free Fortress would have been destroyed long ago."
"Worry-Free Fortress..." Li Yunjing recalled in his heart.
Worry-Free Fortress is not a very large force, only Second-Rank Sect.
Indeed, as True Person Liu said,
This Worry-Free Fortress is known for its thieving and petty theft.
He had angered many sects.
The current lord has implemented sweeping reforms since taking office.
Worry-Free Fortress has changed its usual style.
However, considering its past reputation,
Even if Worry-Free Fortress changes its approach, it still cannot gain the trust of others.
Worry-Free Fortress's development has been hampered at every turn.
The most distinctive characteristic of the monks of Worry-Free Fortress is their habit of covering themselves up completely.
There's nothing else to it, I'm just afraid of being recognized and getting beaten up.
Upon realizing this, Li Yunjing frowned.
Although Worry-Free Fortress has a bad reputation,
But no matter what, they are still considered a righteous sect.
Therefore, Li Yunjing should not feel uncomfortable or bothered.
But when Li Yunjing looked at these guys, he always felt uneasy.
It feels very strange.
If he were truly Devil Cultivator, that's impossible.
Do they really think the righteous cultivators present are just sitting around doing nothing?
Putting aside other factors, each family has its own methods for identifying Devil Cultivator.
As soon as the Devil Cultivator gets close, a warning will be issued immediately.
If these people were truly Devil Cultivator, they should have been discovered long ago.
"What's wrong?" True Person Liu asked immediately upon noticing Li Yunjing's unusual behavior.
Li Yunjing frowned and expressed his feelings.
Upon hearing Li Yunjing's words, True Person Liu immediately looked at the group of cultivators from Worry-Free Fortress.
True Person Liu stared at these people for a long time, but he couldn't see anything unusual.
"Yunjing, perhaps you're overthinking it. I don't feel the same way you do at all," True Person Liu said with a smile, shaking his head.
Li Yunjing smiled as well.
On the surface, he agreed with what True Person Liu said.
However, Li Yunjing remained cautious.
A monk's sixth sense is very important.
Many times, intuition can save lives.
As Li Yunjing withdrew his gaze, the group of cultivators from Worry-Free Fortress exchanged glances in the distance and quietly retreated to a secluded corner.
"We've been discovered?"
"No, we weren't discovered. If we had been discovered, someone would have already taken action."
"I told you we shouldn't have agreed to those Devil Cultivator. Why couldn't we have just followed the righteous path? Why have things gotten so tense now, like dancing on a knife's edge?"
"Hmph, if you want to leave now, no one will stop you. But before you leave, leave behind those several thousand Spirit Stone and many other spiritual items."
"Exactly. People die for wealth, birds die for food. You won't get anything here in Worry-Free Fortress, so you might as well go to the Demonic Path. Maybe you'll even have a chance to become Golden Core cultivator."
"I agree. If the righteous path doesn't accept us, why should we bother trying to win them over?"
"That's true, but is it really possible to fall into the demonic path?"
A group of people were having a heated discussion using their Divine Sense.
In the end, it was the person who seemed to have the highest status who made the decision.
"This matter requires no further discussion."
"Those who want to follow me, let's not discuss this matter anymore."
Those who don't want to come with me can leave now. Don't blame me for not giving you a chance.
"If you're all willing to come with me, then let's get down to business. This is the Heavenly Devil Sect's pledge of allegiance."
Within the Fortuitous Fate Secret Realm,
Hu An and the others did not separate.
After a brief rest by the stream, they continued their treasure hunt.
Follow the stream downstream to see if you can find any more Treasure Fish.
However, luck wasn't on their side; apart from the initial eight Treasure Fish, no new Treasure Fish appeared.
Fortunately, besides the Treasure Fish, there were other gains as well.
Some Water Essence Stone.
Although it's only a first-grade spiritual item.
However, these Water Essence Stone are materials for building formations.
Hu An could use this, along with the array plate provided by Li Yunjing, to construct a Ren Water Formation.
It can heal simple injuries to fellow disciples and also manipulate water Spiritual Qi to defend against enemies.
It is highly functional.
After walking along the stream to its end,
The eight people arrived at a small lake.
The lake isn't very big; you can see the other side at a glance.
The lake isn't deep, and the water is so clear that you can see the bottom at a glance.
In the center of the lake, three lotus flowers swayed in the breeze.
"It's Five-Colored Lotus!"
When Lü Hong saw the lotus flowers in the center of the lake, he exclaimed in surprise.
The Five-Colored Lotus can be found in the medicinal garden of the Luozhen Sect.
That was obtained by Li Yunjing when he participated in the suppression of bandits.
The Five-Colored Lotus has many medicinal properties.
Take the lotus petals in order of color.
After consuming it, a cultivator's cultivation level will increase by one minor realm.
The Five-Colored Lotus of the Luozhen Sect is a Grade Two lotus, which can be effective against Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Qi Refining cultivators can also use it, but the medicinal effects will be too violent, Qi Refining they won't be able to withstand it.
The Five-Colored Lotus in the center of this lake are all of the highest quality.
It can be used by Qi Refining cultivators.
If we can pick them...
This is great news for the Qi Refining disciples of the Luozhen Sect.
"Senior Brother Lü, time is of the essence, let's pick all the Five-Colored Lotus right away!"
Wang Shanming was getting anxious.
He worried that things might change if he waited too long.
It's best to get your hands on these treasures as soon as possible.
Lü Hong nodded and immediately directed the others to get to work.
The picking of the Five-Colored Lotus was carried out by him, Hu An, and Wang Shanming.
The rest of the people stood guard around the perimeter.
The eight people each performed their duties and cooperated in an orderly manner.
Hu An took out the array plate, adjusted it, and immediately set up Water-Avoidance Formation.
The Water-Avoidance Formation enveloped the three people who went to pick the Five-Colored Lotus.
The three walked on the water and arrived in front of the Five-Colored Lotus.
Harvesting the Five-Colored Lotus should not be too rough. If the roots and stems of the Five-Colored Lotus are damaged, then the Five-Colored Lotus must be used immediately.
The three of them carefully began to take the Five-Colored Lotus out of the lake.
