Chapter 157 Luoyun Sect Elder

Although he knew that he had condensed his Nascent Soul at the age of 200, which was indeed much earlier than the average cultivator, he was not clear about the meaning of it.

Yin Mo knew very little about matters related to Nascent Soul cultivators, and had never had any chance to come into contact with them.

"Nothing. Daoist Fellow Yin has condensed his Nascent Soul at such a young age. It really amazes the two of us. It seems that Daoist Fellow has a bright future!"

The silver-haired old man sighed softly and said with a hint of envy on his face.

Meanwhile, he had made his decision.

Regardless of whether the other party's words are true or false, Luo Yun Sect must win over a Nascent Soul cultivator and must not become an enemy of him.

The best case scenario is to persuade him to join Luoyun Sect, that would be even better.

The middle-aged man surnamed Lu also showed a complicated expression, but soon regained his composure. After the silver-haired old man conveyed a few words, they all had solemn expressions on their faces.

When Yin Mo saw this scene, he was not angry. Instead, he took the opportunity to pick up the teacup on the table and took two sips of tea.

At this time, the silver-haired old man and the middle-aged man surnamed Lu seemed to have discussed it, and the silver-haired old man suddenly said:
"Since Brother Yin is still a casual cultivator, please forgive me for speaking frankly."

"Your Nascent Soul has already formed, what are your plans for the future?"

"Plans?" Yin Mo thought for a moment, "I haven't thought about it yet. The Kingdom of Yue has now fallen, and I have offended the monks of the Ghost Spirit Sect, so it is impossible for me to go back. As for other places..." He paused, seeming a little hesitant.

"If Brother Yin doesn't mind that Luoyun Sect is not strong, why not consider joining us? Although Luoyun Sect is not as powerful as Ancient Sword Sect, nor as powerful as Baiqiao Academy."

"But we are not restricted to a specific cultivation method, and have always been integrating the strengths of various schools."

"As long as Brother Yin is willing to join, the two of us brothers are willing to treat you as an equal and will never treat you as an outsider."

The silver-haired old man said solemnly, his eyes full of sincerity.

"Become an elder of your sect?" Yin Mo frowned slightly, revealing a hint of hesitation.

Yin Mo saw that the silver-haired old man did not directly refuse, and smiled in his heart. The old man's words were sincere, which made him look even more sincere:

"Don't worry, fellow Daoist. Although we are called the Grand Elders, we don't need to worry too much, and we are not involved in worldly affairs. We are just a symbol of the sect's prestige."

"You can concentrate on your cultivation. Every year, the sect disciples will offer us thousands of spirit stones for our cultivation."

"If you need special elixirs or materials, you can ask your disciples to search for them. No need to worry about it."

"In short, as an elder of our Luoyun Sect, your treatment is no less than that of other sects."

"Brother, what you said is very true. Although Brother Yin has successfully condensed his Nascent Soul and entered the Nascent Soul stage, he may still be confused about the condensation of the Nascent Soul."

"After all, even though we have been stuck in the early stages of the Nascent Soul for hundreds of years, we have gained a lot of experience in cultivation."

"If fellow Taoist joins, we will teach you everything without reservation so that you can avoid taking detours." Monk Lu persuaded sincerely.

Having one more Nascent Soul cultivator in the sect will greatly enhance the sect's strength. Although it is not as strong as the Ancient Sword Sect, it can be comparable to the Baiqiao Academy.

The Luoyun Sect's position in Yunmeng Mountain will also become more stable.

Yin Mo listened to the two people's invitation and became interested in the proposal of Monk Lu.

Although he has become a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, he still lacks experience. If he had the guidance of a senior who has condensed the Nascent Soul for hundreds of years, he would definitely benefit greatly.

Perhaps it can save decades or even hundreds of years of hard training.

As for staying in Luoyun Sect, he had thought about it before, but he had never thought deeply about the pros and cons. Now that the other party took the initiative to propose it, he must consider it carefully.

Whether to choose to continue as a casual cultivator, or to become an elder of Luoyun Sect, or simply look for a more suitable sect.

After bowing his head and pondering for a moment, Yin Mo raised his head and said seriously:
"I appreciate your kindness, fellow Taoists. But this matter is of great importance. I have just successfully formed my infant, and my mind is not yet at peace. I hope you can give me a few days and I will give you an answer in three days."

After hearing Yin Mo's answer, the silver-haired old man looked at each other, thought for a moment, and replied apologetically:

"I'm sorry, maybe we were a little impatient. This matter really requires your careful consideration."

"In the next few days, I will mark this place as a restricted area to prevent the sect disciples from disturbing you. My brother and I will come to visit you again in three days."

After that, the two old men chatted with Yin Mo for a while, then said goodbye and left.

After Yin Mo saw them off, he returned to the hall and sat down, his brows furrowed and his mind racing.

Suddenly, a white shadow flashed outside the hall. Yin Yue had turned back into her original form of a white fox and walked in gracefully.

"Is there not enough mana to support the transformation?" Yin Mo asked, looking up.

"Yes, master. Although I have some spiritual power of the fox demon, it can only last for a moment. I have to wait a month for the next transformation." The little fox said helplessly.

"Once you are promoted to a level eight demon beast, you will be able to transform permanently. There is no need to rush." ​​Yin Mo comforted.

"Yes, I have spent so many years in the Xutian Ding and I don't feel short of time. With the help of the elixirs provided by the master, maybe I can get there much earlier!" Yin Yue said seriously.

Yin Mo nodded, and suddenly asked:
"Speaking of Xutian Ding, I always felt that my cultivation was not enough, so I never asked about related matters."

"But now that I have condensed my Nascent Soul, you should be able to tell me. After all, you have been in the cauldron for such a long time, you must know how to open it. And I am very curious about what other treasures are in the cauldron besides the Bu Tian Dan!"

"Yin Yue does know the method to open the cauldron. But the master may be disappointed." Yin Yue said with a sigh.

"What? With my current level of cultivation, I can't open the Xutian Ding?" Yin Mo asked with some disbelief.

"Master may not know. When we escaped from the cauldron, we did not rely on our own strength to fight against the restraint of the celestial treasure like Xutian Cauldron."

"It's because of the blue ice flame on the tripod and the role of the monks entering the hall that gave us the opportunity." Yin Yue said slowly.

"Tongtian Lingbao? What is this? Isn't Xutian Ding an ancient treasure? From what you said, it seems that opening Xutian Ding is related to Qianlan Bingyan."

Yin Mo looked puzzled and asked.

"Tongtian Lingbao is actually an ancient treasure, but it is just the name given by the ancient cultivators."

"But only those ancient treasures that possess great magical powers can be called Tongtian Lingbao. And Xutian Baoding is one of them."

“Although I don’t know the specific magical power of this tripod, it is definitely far more powerful than ordinary ancient treasures.”

"As for the Qianlan Ice Flame, it is one of the keys to unlocking the Xutian Ding. More precisely, it is the first step to controlling the Xutian Ding."

"Only by refining this flame can the master have a chance to control this spiritual treasure." Yin Yue's tone became solemn.

“Tongtian Lingbao! Even the ancient monks called it that. It seems that this treasure is indeed extraordinary.”

"But since refining the ice flame is only the first step, what else needs to be done next? Just tell me all of it."

Yin Mo not only did not show disappointment, but revealed a hint of joy. He knew clearly that being able to use a treasure with so many conditions meant that its power was far beyond expectations, which was naturally a pleasant surprise.

As long as he has the Xutian Ding in his hand, no matter how harsh the conditions are, he will be able to master this treasure one day. Yin Mo is quite confident about this.

“As for what needs to be done next, I don’t know.”

"Because once the master refines the Qianlan Ice Flame, he will naturally get the next step. That's all I know." Yin Yue shook her head slightly and said honestly.

"Is that so? It seems a bit challenging. But it doesn't matter, let's deal with the Dry Blue Ice Flame first, and then consider other things."

"By the way! You don't seem to have told me what other treasures are in the cauldron." Yin Mo was a little disappointed, but then he looked at Yin Yue deeply and asked slowly.

"Yin Yue didn't hide anything. There are no other ancient treasures in the cauldron except the two Bu Tian Pills."

"There is only an empty tripod left. Because it has been placed in the Xutian Palace for so many years, there are always some powerful monks who have touched the Qianlan Ice Flame through special means, causing the treasures to gradually decrease. What you saw in the Xutian Palace last time was the only remaining ancient treasure." Yin Yue was afraid that Yin Mo would be disappointed, so she hurriedly explained.

"I see. That's fine! With my current level of cultivation, ordinary ancient treasures can no longer attract me. If I can subdue the Xutian Ding, it will be the best result." Yin Mo said calmly, as if he had expected this.

"Master is so open-minded, Yin Yue deeply admires it! Master is right."

"As far as I know, even in ancient times, there were only fifty or sixty ancient treasures that could be called spiritual treasures."

"Almost every one of them has amazing magical powers, capable of turning rivers and seas upside down, moving mountains and filling the sea."

“To be honest, when I first saw that the little bottle of the master’s brother could ripen the elixir, I almost thought it was also a spiritual treasure.”

"But after thinking about it carefully, I found that this is not very likely." Yin Yue chuckled.

"Oh? Why? Is the magical power of that small bottle not as good as those spiritual treasures?" Yin Mo was slightly stunned and asked with some doubt.

"That's not the case. Regardless of whether the small bottle has other magical powers, its ability to ripen spiritual medicine alone is enough to surpass all spiritual treasures."

"Although other spiritual treasures also have various magical powers, they still need to follow the laws of heaven and earth. However, the effect of the small bottle of ripening spiritual medicine is truly against the will of heaven."

"I guess only in the spiritual world after ascension, or even in the higher fairyland, can someone refine such a treasure." Yin Yue licked his lips and said seriously.

Yin Mo was silent. He knew that the small bottle was prepared by Han Tianzun for the young Han Li.

However, it didn't matter now. His relationship with Han Li had already allowed him to enjoy the benefits of the small bottle.

However, this topic should not be continued, so he turned to ask about the elders of Luoyun Sect.

"Yin Yue, you should have heard the words of the two Luoyun Sect elders next door. Do you think I should stay there or find another place?"

"Since the master asked personally, Yin Yue answered without hesitation."

"Master, do you have any plans for the future? If not, staying in Luoyun Sect is also a good choice."

"Both of you are Yuanying early stage cultivators. The master is free in this sect."

"Moreover, the Luoyun Sect is quite large and can provide support to the master."

"Of course, if the master has other plans, that's fine."

“Even if a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage is practicing independently, he will not be easily disturbed by a sect.” Yin Yue said calmly.

"There is no specific plan yet. I need to spend several years solidifying my Nascent Soul."

"In addition, I must go to the Far West. I must obtain the last three levels of the Great Evolution Technique."

"If that's the case, it's best for the master to stay in Luoyun Sect for a while. After all, it's a bit dangerous to be a casual cultivator, and it would also be beneficial for the master's cultivation to have a Nascent Soul cultivator to guide him."

Yin Yue thought about it and made a suggestion.

"Well, that makes sense. I'm a little tired now, you can leave first." Yin Mo didn't make it clear whether he would accept this suggestion. He stood up and walked towards the bedroom.

The white fox tilted its head, looked at Yin Mo's receding back, a thoughtful look in its eyes, and then it also left the hall.

……

As for Han Li, he was lying on the stone bed in the bedroom, staring blankly at the bluestone ceiling. His mood was fluctuating and he was unable to fall asleep.

Condensing the Nascent Soul seems simple, but the risks involved make Han Li feel scared.

The twitching and reversal of all his meridians when the pill was shattered almost made him want to die in pain, but due to his advanced cultivation, he persisted.

The Nine-bend Spirit Ginseng Pill played an important role. Otherwise, he doubted whether he would faint on the spot.

Although the pill-breaking process is full of dangers, it is nothing compared to the backlash of the inner demon.

He originally thought that with the protection of treasures such as the Soul-Nourishing Wood and the Parashorea Pearl, plus the Soul-Calming Pill specially prepared for this purpose, it would not be difficult to fight against the inner demon.

However, the cunning and power of the inner demon far exceeds what is rumored, which is simply unimaginable.

It first made Han Li experience a series of the deepest fear and despair. Those things that were usually hidden deep in his heart, and even he himself had not noticed, were played out one after another in the illusion.

Whether it was his hometown being robbed by bandits, or his parents and sister suffering misfortune.

Or he lost all his cultivation and became a mortal, and the secret of the small bottle was exposed, and he was hunted down by the entire cultivation world. These situations all touched Han Li's inner vulnerability.

They appeared before his eyes one by one. Although they were illusions, they seemed real. Once he was caught up in them, he could not extricate himself.

Even Han Li, who was usually resolute and calm, was almost overwhelmed by anger and fear.

Fortunately, the Dingling Pill and other treasures were not just famous for nothing, and they played a role at the critical moment, allowing him to maintain a bit of clarity and break free from the illusion.

Despite this, Han Li still broke out in a cold sweat.

However, his inner demons did not stop there, and the next wave of attacks was about to come.

In his blurred consciousness, he was immersed in a series of beautiful and happy illusions.

Reunited with his parents and sister, he returned to the happy life of his childhood.

Although Han Li was immersed in all this for a moment, he finally got rid of the confusion of the illusion.

Next, his cultivation improved greatly and he dominated the Tiannan cultivation world. Eventually, he ascended to the spiritual world and became an immortal, living as long as heaven and earth.

These scenes appeared one after another, making him feel as if he had experienced the joys and sorrows of several lifetimes.

He didn't know how many years he spent in these illusions, until a certain opportunity made him suddenly wake up, and he finally got rid of the confusion of his inner demons and successfully condensed his Nascent Soul.
