Chapter 160 Joining the Xuandu Cave and Acquiring a 4th-Order Bloodline)
The Kingdom of Nanyue.
Yunzhou, Sanxian Mountain.
Dark clouds covered an area of hundreds of miles.
Rumble!
In the distance, streaks of golden lightning could be faintly seen flashing through the clouds. The drizzling rain dampened the mountains and forests, and the scent of damp earth permeated the air.
On the grassy steps that stretched deep into the mountains, Lin Chuan, who looked like an eleven or twelve-year-old Taoist boy dressed in a white Taoist robe, slowly walked upwards.
With each step he took, he could see wisps of light, like green threads, flying towards him from the lush forests surrounding the mountains.
A green orb of spiritual light condensed in the void half a step in front of him.
"This is the spiritual energy of the Yi Wood cultivated by the sacred trees in the mountains. After being refined and absorbed into the body, it can prolong life."
"You probably already know that."
"After I came out of Fallen Immortal Valley, many Nascent Soul cultivators in the Southern Yue Kingdom were like mad dogs, searching everywhere."
"However, those Nascent Soul stage cultivators are not to be feared, as long as one can advance to the Deity Transformation stage."
"Everything can be resolved!"
Lin Chuan, who was walking in front, said to Lin Li behind him.
The words were spoken.
The ball of light containing spiritual energy and vitality in front of him flew to Lin Li and entered his body in the blink of an eye, enveloping him in a warm and cool sensation.
In that instant, Lin Li felt as if he had become one with the surrounding mountains and forests, and the spiritual trees in the mountains around him made him feel extremely close to them.
Upon reaching the end of these steps, one sees a small Taoist temple built in a clearing in the woods.
Green tiles and white walls, serene and secluded.
The words "Xiao Xuandu Cave" are hung on the door.
Outside the gate lay a beast resembling a Qilin, but with bull horns on its head and a powerful aura.
This beast must be at least at the late stage of Core Formation cultivation.
When Lin Chuan and Lin Li appeared outside the Taoist temple, the horned beast lying on the ground suddenly opened its pair of emerald green eyes. Upon seeing Lin Chuan, it ran up to him as quickly as a big lapdog.
It wagged its tail happily and let out a series of low growls.
At the same time, his gaze fell on Lin Li, and a look of doubt appeared in his large, bell-like eyes.
"Ah Jiao, this is my newly accepted disciple, Liu Ya, who will also be your senior brother in the future."
Lin Chuan looked at the Azure Scale Beast in front of him with a smile on his face. This beast, A Jiao, was created by him by combining the only dead egg left in the beast pen with a native demon beast in the Core Formation stage.
This beast's bloodline rank has already reached the middle of the fourth rank.
With proper training, it can also advance to the late Nascent Soul stage, making it a top-tier spirit beast in this lower realm.
"Junior Brother Ajiao."
Lin Li looked at the enormous horned scale beast in front of him and spoke with goodwill in his eyes.
"Senior Brother Liu."
"This is a blood crystal that my junior brother cultivated."
"It can temper the physical body."
"I'll give it to my senior brother."
Immediately, Ah Jiao spat out a blood crystal the size of a quail egg and presented it to Lin Li.
Sensing the powerful blood energy contained within the blood crystal, Lin Li's eyes lit up; this was far more effective than any Core Formation artifact.
"Thank you, Junior Brother Ajiao."
Lin Li finished speaking.
Lin Li put the blood crystal away and extracted a wisp of spiritual energy from it to refine it.
blink.
A prompt appeared before my eyes.

[Tier 4, Intermediate Bloodline (Mutated), Horned Scale Beast!]
In an instant, a nearly three-zhang-tall, mountain-sized azure Qilin appeared on the Reincarnation Plate. The Qilin stood on auspicious clouds, had a ferocious face, golden bull horns on its head, and exuded an extremely astonishing aura.
Bloodline of mid-Nascent Soul stage.
The horned scale beast then occupied the central position of the Reincarnation Disc.
Immediately, Lin Li followed Lin Chuan towards the small Taoist temple, Xuandu Cave. Lin Chuan stood in front of the entrance of Xuandu Cave with a solemn expression. After pausing for a moment, he walked inside.
After getting started.
The front courtyard of the Taoist temple was very quiet; everything was still.
There was only one banyan tree in the courtyard, which was no more than ten feet tall.
When Lin Li saw the banyan tree, his pupils contracted, as if he had thought of something—there was a towering banyan tree inside the fourth-order restriction of Fallen Immortal Valley.
If this banyan tree is related to that divine banyan tree, then if one could acquire it, its bloodline would be far superior to that of the horned-scaled beast.
There are still many top-tier bloodlines in Xuandu Cave!
"Eldest disciple, it seems your senses are quite sharp!"
"This spirit tree has an extraordinary origin; it came from the upper realm with our Xuandu Cave."
"Because I consumed too much of my primordial energy when breaking the restrictions in Fallen Immortal Valley, my cultivation level dropped significantly. I am currently in a period of recuperation."
now.
Lin Chuan spoke calmly.
"I see."
Lin Li looked slightly surprised, then stepped forward and touched the dark brown banyan tree with his hand.
next moment.
When Lin Li's right hand landed on the banyan tree, he immediately felt a faint stream of pure spiritual energy emanating from the tree and entering his body.

[Fourth-tier superior bloodline (excellent), Spirit-Binding Divine Banyan! (Fragment)]
On the Reincarnation Disc, the familiar jade pillar reappeared, rising from the ground and firmly occupying the center position. The horned scale beast that had just been acquired let out a low growl and then readily gave up the central position.
"Disciple, as my first disciple, you should first follow me here to cultivate in seclusion and improve your cultivation."
"This territory of the Southern Yue Kingdom is not a safe place either."
"If we, the people of the Xuanmen, cannot suppress the native Nascent Soul cultivators of the Southern Yue Kingdom with our cultivation level, then we must be careful."
"We have obtained a lot of information about the spirit world, which is extremely valuable information for those native Nascent Soul cultivators and even the Nascent Soul cultivators in this area."
"They will definitely do whatever it takes to get these things from us."
"The Three Immortal Mountains here are just a temporary stop for our Xuandu Cave."
"Everything will wait until I advance to the Nascent Soul stage."
"Those worthless chickens and dogs are nothing to fear."
Lin Chuan said earnestly.
"Yes, Master."
"This time, I will follow my master into seclusion, and I am determined to raise my cultivation level to the Core Formation stage, or even the Nascent Soul stage."
Lin Li bowed respectfully and said.
In this life, he possesses the aptitude of a Nascent Soul bloodline. Last time, he couldn't even break through to the Nascent Soul stage. In this life, he was able to become a disciple of the Xuandu Cave. The exciting chapter "Chapter 160: Becoming a Disciple of the Xuandu Cave and Acquiring a Fourth-Order Bloodline (Two Chapters Combined, Please Subscribe)" is now online. Click to read it first! He cultivates the orthodox techniques of the Xuanmen.
I must see what the scenery is like for those at the Nascent Soul stage and above.
"Master, I've forgotten why we fell from the Spirit Realm. Do we have enemies there too?"
Lin Li asked, a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"This is a long story, all because of the Gu Clan."
"This is a jade slip recording this matter. As a disciple of our Xuandu Cave, you will know about it sooner or later."
After saying this, Lin Chuan raised his hand and took out an ancient jade slip, which he then presented to Lin Li.
Seeing that Lin Li had put the jade slip away, Lin Chuan continued walking forward.
Step into the courtyard.
Under Lin Chuan's guidance, Lin Li also met the patriarch of Xuandu Cave. The patriarch was a woman in green robes, and beside her was the head of a black dragon coiled up. The dragon head was bowing its head, looking like a well-behaved kitten in front of the patriarch.
"Our founder of Xuandu Cave was once a disciple of Yuanling Mountain. However, due to the struggle for lineage on Yuanling Mountain, they fought fiercely, resulting in deaths and injuries on both sides."
"During this time, foreign tribes intervened, and the matter at Yuanling Mountain came to an end. Many disciples left the mountain."
"Our Xuandu Cave, as well as the thirty-six caves of Qianyuan Mountain, were basically established by the disciples who came down the mountain back then."
Lin Chuan looked at the patriarch of Xuandu Cave in front of him and said with reminiscence in his eyes.
Linchuan was not qualified to offer sacrifices at that time.
However, now that he has arrived in this lower realm, there is no one left. He has re-established his lineage and has hung up the portrait of his patriarch again.
Linchuan stepped forward and lit the incense.
Lin Li then performed the three bows and nine kowtows ceremony, as well as many other rituals.
The entire process took one hour.
After it was over, Lin Li looked at the empty soul lamp altar, with only his own ancient bronze soul lamp placed at the highest position.
Unexpectedly, in the Xuandu Cave inheritance in the lower realm, after joining Xuandu Cave by impersonating the reincarnation of a disciple of the thirty-six caves of Xuanmen Qianyuan Mountain, he actually became the senior disciple of the cave.
"My disciple."
"Our Xuandu Cave is still too weak. Besides you and me, there are three other disciples in the sect, but they are not in the Three Immortals Mountain."
"Those three are your senior uncles, but they have established a branch of Xuandu Cave in another location."
"If Xuandu Cave only has one lineage, and something happens and there is no follow-up lineage, all the previous efforts will be in vain."
Lin Chuan looked at Lin Li beside him and said.
after that.
Linchuan then gave Lin Li a spirit talisman from the Three Immortals Mountain array plate, which allowed Lin Li to freely enter and exit the Three Immortals Mountain.
...
The cultivation world of Dongming Kingdom.
Starry Sea.
Golden Turtle Island.
This is an island that looks like a crouching black tortoise. The mountains are covered with lush forests, and under the blazing sun, you can clearly see black tortoises of different sizes lazily basking in the sun on the edge of the island.
Most of these Xuan Turtles are at the Qi Refining stage, a few are at the Foundation Establishment stage, and only the giant silver turtle in the center, which is the size of a small mountain, is a Xuan Turtles at the Core Formation stage.
outside the house.
Ku Teng and Bai Xuantian waited obediently outside the door for Jin Ling Lao Zu's reply.
This is one of the most approachable Nascent Soul elders in their Starry Sea, and also the oldest.
In the Starry Sea, there are some Nascent Soul stage cultivators who get into trouble, and most of the time, they will choose to come to us for help.
As long as these Nascent Soul stage demon cultivators can offer corresponding rewards, that's fine.
Of course, if there are any methods involving the Nascent Soul stage, this Golden Spirit Ancestor wouldn't even ask for a single penny in compensation.
I waited for a long time.
A small turtle demon carrying a blue turtle shell emerged from the doorway. Its chubby body and round head poked out, staring at the withered vine and Bai Xuantian before it.
"My master said to let the two elders in."
The little turtle demon with the blue shell spoke.
Thank you for your trouble.
Immediately, Ku Teng and Bai Xuantian bowed very politely and said...
They knew very well that the little turtle demons around this Nascent Soul senior were essentially his disciples, holding a superior status.
They came seeking help from their senior, so naturally they dared not neglect this little turtle demon in the Core Formation stage.
Ku Teng and the others followed the little turtle demon into the courtyard. At that moment, there was an old man with a white beard lying in a rocking chair. The old man was wearing a loose white robe and was intently reading a book, which was suspended in front of him.
The pages of paper turned slowly, and the Golden Spirit Ancestor was completely absorbed in watching them.
Ku Teng and Bai Xuantian, along with the little turtle demon with the blue tortoise shell, stood obediently to one side.
The two of them glanced at each other, neither daring to utter a single word.
After a while.
The book that had been floating in front of the Golden Spirit Ancestor slowly closed, as if it had left the room with a sense of unfinished business.
Then, Old Ancestor Jinling's gaze fell on the withered vine and Bai Xuantian. He looked them up and down, stretched, and asked, "What's the matter, you two?"
"Reporting to the Ancestor, we have been placed under a restriction. We have tried many methods, but we have been unable to remove the mark from our bodies."
"We beg the Ancestor to intervene!"
After saying this, Ku Teng raised his right hand, and a white circular mark could be clearly seen on the back of his hand.
Moreover, the white mark now resembles a white vine, extending outwards with cracks that spread across the wrist like intertwined roots.
The withered vine, who had just discovered this, was also quite surprised.
If this mark could grow on its own, it would eventually spread throughout the entire body, which could be life-threatening.
Thinking of this, Ku Teng felt extremely flustered.
The same applies to Bai Xuantian.
If Old Ghost Kuteng gets into trouble, he'll definitely be next.
"oh!?"
"A mark that neither of you can remove?"
Upon hearing what Ku Teng and the others said, Jin Ling Patriarch's eyes lit up with interest.
Immediately, the Golden Spirit Ancestor raised his hand and released a pale golden magical power, which transformed into a golden tentacle.
In the blink of an eye.
The seemingly soft, golden tentacles enveloped the withered vine's right hand.
A few breaths later.
A hint of solemnity flashed across the previously calm eyes of the Golden Spirit Ancestor.
"what?"
Ancestor Jinling stood up from the rocking chair, walked to the side of the withered vine, and then unleashed his Nascent Soul stage aura.
boom!!
The terrifying pressure emanated from the Golden Spirit Ancestor and spread outwards.
It landed on the two demons, Ku Teng and Bai Xuantian.
The Nascent Soul stage magic power that Ancestor Jinling had just released was actually blocked by that mark.
The Golden Spirit Ancestor did not sense the aura of a cultivator of the same level from the mark, which puzzled him greatly.
