But as soon as Wumu said his name, the people around him exclaimed.
"It's actually... the Eyeless Mage from the Wuyan Temple!"
"It is said that this master, who had killed a great Jindan demon with his foundation-building body, had also comprehended the secret Buddhist teachings of Wuyan Temple, the "Acala Sutra", and his strength was extremely astonishing!"
"How could a genius of this level come to the border alone..."
Faced with the chattering around him, the expression of the Blind Mage did not change at all.
There is an unchanging smile on his face, which has a magical power that makes people feel like spring breeze.
The city gate guards also recognized the identity of the Blind Mage and took a deep breath. Their attitude towards Luo Xue also softened a lot.
"Little sister, since the Mage Wumu has already paid the entrance fee for you, please come in."
After saying that, he made way.
"The Temple of No Talk..."
Hearing this, Luo Xue's expression became slightly stern.
Although she knew very little about the geniuses in the fairyland, the names of the nine major sects were well-known.
Wuyan Temple is one of the nine sects in the fairyland and the only Buddhist sect, governing the Sun Province among the Nine Provinces.
Rizhou and Youzhou are adjacent to each other, so the influence of Wuyan Temple here is not weak. As the most famous genius in recent times, Master Wumu is regarded as the representative of the new generation of disciples of Wuyan Temple.
only...
"Shouldn't all the monks in Wuyan Temple be Buddhists? Why does Master Wumu still have hair?"
Luo Xue's eyes moved slightly to the top of the head of the Blind Mage, which was a head of thick short hair, perhaps even thicker than hers...
Moreover, Master Wumu was not wearing a cassock, but a gray cloth robe, with an inconspicuous bag hanging from his shoulders.
If he hadn't exposed his family background, no one would have linked him to the famous genius of Wuyan Temple.
Of course, Luo Xue didn't want to stay with such a prominent figure, she just wanted to keep a low profile.
Fortunately, after the appearance of the Blind Mage, the eyes of the people around were no longer focused on Luo Xue - with the genius of the Fairyland here, who would care about a slave whose appearance was not even outstanding.
Thinking of this, Luo Xue quickly bowed to thank the Mage Wumu and immediately put the spirit stone in her hand into his hand.
"Thank you, Master. This... is for you."
Then she hurriedly merged into the crowd and walked towards the city gate.
Go away, go away, it would be best if no one sees you...
But at this moment, the feminine voice sounded in Luo Xue's ears again, but this time only she could hear it.
"Juexiao Sect is very far from here. Basically, no disciple would pass through the Ghost Demon Gate to enter the Demon Abyss, unless they want to avoid the eyes and ears of Juexiao Sect... You are Luo Xue, the evil poison body, right?"
Hearing this, Luo Xue paused and looked back in shock.
The Eyeless Monk smiled and nodded slightly to her, returning her the Buddhist salute.
How did he know
Could it be that the matter of Juexiao Sect...
No, that's unlikely. Even the Grand Elder of Law Enforcement would not publicize this.
Maybe... it was information leaked by a spy.
Each session of Dengxianmen lasts for twelve years, and about a hundred disciples are shortlisted.
Although spies are often caught in the Juexiao Sect, there are always some that slip through the net. As long as the information is not passed on easily, the possibility of being exposed will be much smaller.
It seems that the nine sects in the fairyland are not as harmonious as imagined.
"Master, you are worrying too much. I am not the disciple of Juexiao Sect as you said, and I don't know the Luo Xue you mentioned."
Luo Xue spoke in a very soft voice, she believed that the Blind Wizard could hear her.
The Blind Mage smiled without commenting, not paying much attention to Luo Xue's explanation.
"If you go to the Demonic Abyss, you will die," he did not speak, only his voice reached Luo Xue's ears, "It is a disaster beyond redemption, and there is no way back."
Luo Xue frowned slightly, a little hesitant.
She didn't know why the Blind Wizard knew her, nor did she know what the Blind Wizard's words, which sounded like a warning and a prophecy, meant.
But before Luo Xue could ask the Blind Wizard, the crowd filled the surroundings.
There was a crowd of people entering the pass, and the Blind Master was no longer seen.
Luo Xue could only suppress her doubts in her heart and follow the crowd into the Ghost Demon Pass.
... ...
Inside Guimo Pass, in an unnamed teahouse.
"Haha, even Wumu, who hasn't turned into a bald donkey yet, has come. It seems that the Nine Sects of the Immortal Realm can no longer hold back."
The handsome man in white robe chuckled and picked up the teacup, with a faint gentle smile on his lips.
He leaned back in his chair seemingly nonchalantly, the dim sunlight streaming in through the window adding a hint of holiness to his profile.
Anyone who sees this scene will be amazed at what a gentle and elegant gentleman in this world.
“The Tiancong Sword Tomb is about to open. This is a rare secret realm of heavenly pills. If you want to pursue the great way, how can you be content with just earthly pills
"The Demon Pestle from the Demon Pass auction is a good fourth-tier magical weapon for him."
The woman sitting next to him had a cold voice, her brows were outlined with a hint of enchanting red, and one of her eyes was even scarlet.
If you look closely, you can see a mystery hidden in the scarlet eyes.
—In the city of demons and ghosts, the evil ghost geniuses Sima Ye and Shangguan Lengyan, both have reached the peak of foundation building.
Like the Eyeless Master, they all came for the evil ghost-subduing pestle.
As the name suggests, this magic weapon is an excellent one for Sima Ye, Shangguan Lengyan, and Master Wumu.
Rumor has it that this magic weapon was originally the seventh-tier magic weapon of Wuyan Temple, the "Vajra Pestle", which can only be used by cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage.
But in the previous battle between immortals and demons, the magic weapon was polluted by the powerful demon cultivators from the evil ghost city, and turned into the current fourth-tier magic weapon "Evil Ghost Pestle", and was lost on the battlefield.
Now that it has reappeared in the world, it has naturally attracted a lot of attention, especially from Wuyan Temple and the evil ghosts.
After being polluted, although the Buddhist practitioners of Wuyan Temple can still exert its power, the demons and evil ghosts can also do so accordingly.
Moreover, since it is a fallen seventh-level magic weapon, the Evil Ghost Subduing Pestle has many magical uses that fourth-level magic weapons cannot reach. Its power is close to that of a fifth-level magic weapon, but it cannot exceed the level of a foundation-building cultivator.
Therefore, Sima Ye and Shangguan Lengyan would never let go of this magic weapon.
"I don't know if Liu Qingyu from Changchun Pavilion is in Ghost Demon Pass right now. Her poison is a bit troublesome." Sima Ye looked at the teacup with narrowed eyes. "If she is not here, let that bald donkey take the evil ghost pestle away, and we can just snatch it away."
“It’s hard to say,” Shangguan Lengyan’s face darkened, or rather, her expression had not changed from beginning to end, “Wu Mu is good at divination, and if he wasn’t sure, he wouldn’t risk coming here.
"What's more, he has already cultivated the sixth level of the Acalanatha Sutra and is as immovable as a mountain. If you want to snatch something from him, even if you and I join forces, it will be difficult."
“No matter how difficult it is, we must take action.” A fierce look flashed across Sima Ye’s eyes, and the teacup in his hand silently turned into ashes. “The new little girl from Yinling Temple... will definitely be our biggest enemy in Tiancong Sword Tomb!
“In order to form a heavenly elixir, you and I have suppressed our realm to the peak of foundation building for many years, but we are still no match for her.
"Only if we get the Devil Subduing Pestle can we have a chance of winning."
Not only the new generation of the nine sects of the Immortal Realm, but also the geniuses of the four realms of the Demon Abyss are shrouded in the shadow of the Holy Maiden of the Yinling Temple.
Since Su Yiyao knew that Ah Chou's physique was that of a demon cultivator, if she were to be reincarnated, she would most likely be a demon cultivator. That's why she took action on Mo Yuan's side many more times. It can be said that the genius of Mo Yuan's generation had a deeper feeling for her.
The Achou that she condensed in the eyes of others was not just a portrait, but also carried the aura of the Xuanyin Huafeng Sutra.
As long as anyone comes into contact with a descendant of the Xuanyin Huafeng Sutra other than her, there will be a reaction.
But so far, nothing has been achieved.
"By the way, where is the little girl that Wumu rescued at the city gate?" Shangguan Lengyan's scarlet eyes flickered with mystery. "I heard that Wumu is known for his compassion. If we can take that little girl hostage, maybe..."
"You count on this? You don't really think that the group of bald donkeys in Wuyan Temple are the same as the Buddhist monks in the mortal world, right?" Sima Ye sneered, "Especially the little bald donkey Wumu, his hypocrisy is no less than mine."
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Lengyan's brows twitched slightly. "Senior Brother Sima, you don't have to scold yourself first before scolding others, right
"By the way, it seems that Bald Donkey revealed his identity to rescue the slave girl, as if he was conveying some message." Sima Ye narrowed his eyes slightly, "Of course... We can ask her in person."
Shangguan Lengyan nodded and immediately set out to capture Luo Xue.
But Sima Ye raised his hand to stop her.
"Wait a minute, we can't do it. That bald donkey is good at divination. I'm worried that he might have a trick up his sleeve."
Shangguan Lengyan looked at Sima Ye and said,
"What if we don't take action and are still included in his divination?"
"... ..."
Sima Ye's expression froze.
This line of thinking seems to have reached a dead end...
"Besides, the demons and ghosts are all evil ghosts and have no roots in the Demon Gate. Even we have hidden our identities." Shangguan Lengyan said, "The girl's cultivation is at most the beginning of the innate realm. It is very likely that she is using the power of medicine to activate the furnace. Do we need to be so cautious even for this?"
"No, no, no, Junior Sister, what I mean is that if we don't do anything, we can let others do it." Sima Ye's mouth curled up slightly, "This is the Demon Pass. If you have money, you can satisfy all your needs...
"Tell me, five Yellow-grade Qi Condensation Pills are expensive to take down a little ghost in the Innate Realm?"
... ...
"It can be exchanged for twenty Yellow-grade Qi Condensation Pills in total."
The alchemist glanced at the spirit stones on the table. Spirit stones of different sizes were piled together, emitting a soft glow, and a faint spiritual energy that was refreshing.
"Well, these spirit stones of mine should be worth fifty Yellow-grade Qi Condensation Pills..." Luo Xue said weakly.
After a period of understanding, Luo Xue finally discovered that inside the Ghost Demon Pass, they do not recognize spirit stones, only Qi Condensation Pills.
She had so much spirit stones that she couldn't spend them at all.
And along the way, Luo Xue had already noticed many greedy eyes secretly spying on her. Even when she took out some scattered spirit stones that were worth less than a hundred basic Qi Condensation Pills, there were fiery gazes staring at her.
"If these people knew about the ring on my hand and the things inside, they would go crazy trying to grab it..."
In an instant, Luo Xue turned into a fierce ghost and began to be suspicious of everything. No matter where she went, she felt that someone wanted to murder her.
The symptoms of Li Guijiao are indeed contagious...
This is not going to work, as everything in the Ghost Demon Pass requires Qi Condensation Pills. Without Qi Condensation Pills, there is no way to find out how to get to the Demon Abyss.
Therefore, Luo Xue found an alchemy shop that provided a Qi Condensation Pill exchange service, intending to redeem all the spirit stones she had.
However, the alchemist in the pharmacy saw Luo Xue's miserable appearance and wanted to bully her, so he cut off 60% of the spirit stones in Luo Xue's hand.
Luo Xue had calculated that even after deducting the expenses and the alchemist's reward, she could at least get fifty Yellow-grade Qi Condensation Pills.
If the alchemist asked for more reward, such as forty pills, Luo Xue could reluctantly accept it. After all, less is better.
But now it’s directly pressed to twenty pieces...
"Heh, where's the algorithm you're using? This is the Demon Pass," the alchemist was quite arrogant, not hiding his disdain for Luo Xue at all, "The Demon Pass must follow its rules!
"I said twenty Yellow-grade Qi Condensation Pills, that means twenty Yellow-grade Qi Condensation Pills!"
Luo Xue hesitated for a moment, then reached out to take the spirit stone back.
"Then I won't change!"
"Hmm? If you don't want to change it, then don't change it. Do you think the alchemy shop is your home?"
The alchemist shook Luo Xue's hand away without any hesitation and put all the spirit stones into his pocket.
Then he took out twenty yellow-grade Qi Condensation Pills and threw them directly at Luo Xue. The pills scattered all over the ground, attracting a lot of fiery gazes.
“Hahaha, hurry up and pick it up, and take a good look at it. You won’t be able to see it anymore once you leave this door!” The alchemist’s face was full of sarcasm and disdain. “You should be grateful for the rules of the alchemy shop, otherwise you wouldn’t even be able to leave the door!”
He believed that Luo Xue was just a runaway slave with no background or support.
Even if it is really exchanged for fifty Yellow-grade Qi Condensation Pills, they will be snatched away after leaving the alchemy workshop.
Rather than having them all taken away, it's better to... keep some of it for yourself first.
Luo Xue relaxed her hands that were numbed by the shock, her expression slightly gloomy.
She didn't expect that her deliberately disguised image not only failed to avoid people's attention, but instead attracted a lot of attention from the weak.
No matter who it is, everyone wants to get something from her.
