Chapter 28 Xuanjian Village (Please read and recommend!)
Xinshan.
Li Mufeng returned here from Qixuanmen. Tie Luo, Li Changsheng, Li Muxuan, Xuelan, Wen Kang and several other evil demon cultivators in the foundation-building stage were waiting here.
The auras of Wen Kang and those evil demon monks in the early stage of foundation building weakened a lot.
Not only them, but also Xue Lan, Tie Luo, Li Changsheng, and Li Muxuan's auras were not as stable as before.
"Are you injured?"
Li Mufeng was a little surprised. Not only Wen Kang and his group, but even Tie Luo and Xue Lan seemed to have experienced a fierce battle.
"That sword cultivator in the early stage of foundation building was very powerful. It took a lot of effort to capture him alive."
Seeing that Xue Lan just stood silently behind Li Mufeng and didn't seem to want to say anything, Li Changsheng stepped forward and explained the situation.
"The magic tools, talismans, and cultivation techniques are all top-notch."
"Not only is that sword cultivator in the foundation building stage, the two sword cultivators he brought with him who have reached the perfection of Qi training are also very powerful. Even if the demon cultivator has transformed into a demon and advanced to the early stage of foundation building, he will not be able to defeat them quickly."
"These guys are in no way inferior to the elite disciples of the seven sects."
Wen Kang came out again to explain.
"interesting."
"Any useful information?"
Li Mufeng asked as he walked in.
"Yes, we have learned some information through the magic of ecstasy. Now we can confirm that they are the Swordsmen."
"The sword cultivator who is in the early stage of foundation building is named Jiang Chen, and the other two disciples who have completed Qi training are named Jiang Jing and Jiang Chuan."
As he was speaking, someone handed over three jade tablets. The side with the flying sword was engraved with the words Chen, Jing, and Chuan, and the other side was engraved with the word Xuan.
"The swordsman who was attacked by Ke Hua last time was Jiang Jing. He used a talisman to escape and met Zu Lin, the owner of Juxian Manor. He then recuperated in Juxian Manor for a period of time."
"The purpose of these three people coming to Jingzhou is to find Ke Hua and take back the jade token."
"All of them have the surname Jiang? Are there such cultivator families in Jingzhou?"
"No, not only in Jingzhou, but also in the neighboring Lanzhou. It seems that there is only a Jiang family affiliated with the Giant Sword Sect in Linzhou. But that family does not have such sophisticated flying sword forging technology."
"Have you searched your soul?"
"No. I just asked some simple questions using the spell of ecstasy."
"Waiting for you to come back and make a decision, Mu Feng."
Hearing this, Li Mufeng stopped, looked at Li Changsheng next to him, and praised him.
"Well done, Changsheng, you still understand me."
"Take me to see that Jiang Chen."
Soon, Li Mufeng was taken to an attic of the Loose Cultivators' Union.
Now these three people are arranged to live here, separated on three floors.
After these three people were captured alive, they have been imprisoned in this attic. Compared with other monks captured by the Black Evil Sect, their treatment is simply heaven and earth.
"My name is Li Mufeng, nice to meet you, Daoist Jiang Chen."
In the room on the top floor, Li Mufeng saw Jiang Chen who was imprisoned there.
As soon as we met, wow, what a guy, he has sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, strong facial features, and there is a unique sharp aura in his body.
After seeing Li Mufeng, that person's eyes were filled with confusion at first. He had only completed Qi Refining?
But when I thought about the strength of the people I fought with, I no longer found it strange.
When he looked at Li Mufeng carefully, he was a little surprised. It was not because he was surprised that Li Mufeng's appearance was more handsome than his, but because the other person also had a sword-like aura in his body.
However, unlike his sharpness, the opponent's breath was stained with scarlet blood. Jiang Chen felt his blood rushing up and felt a little dizzy after just one look.
"Jiang Chen, nice to meet you, Fellow Daoist Li."
The man stood up and returned the greeting.
"Your strength doesn't seem like that of an ordinary person. I wonder which sect secretly trained you to be an elite disciple?"
Li Mufeng didn't waste any time and confirmed his identity first.
Only when the first step is confirmed, will the second step come later. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be a waste of his expression?
"This"
Jiang Chen turned around and looked at the people behind Li Mufeng.
He didn't want his identity to be exposed. Even communicating with spiritual consciousness was not safe. It would be terrible if someone heard it.
He waved his hand, and the people behind him retreated.
"Fellow Daoist, there is no one on this floor anymore, so you don't have to worry about our communication being intercepted by other people's spiritual senses. The formation in this room has the effect of shielding spiritual senses."
After hearing this, Jiang Chen relaxed. If possible, he didn't want Li Mufeng to know their identities.
But now I am at the mercy of others. If I want to go back alive, I will have to pay some price.
"I am from Xuanjian Village."
Jiang Chen clasped his fists.
"Xuanjian Village?"
Hearing this name, Li Mufeng was stunned for a moment. Over the past two years, all the intelligence about Jingzhou could be said to have been mastered by their Black Evil Sect. Even if there were any omissions, they were made up by the Jingzhou cultivators from the Cultivator's Union.
There is no such force in Jingzhou at all.
"Fellow Daoist, please don't misunderstand. Our Xuanjian Village has been secluded from the world for thousands of years, so we are not well-known in Jingzhou."
Jiang Chen seemed a little worried that Li Mufeng would think he was deceiving him, so he explained.
"A thousand years? Your Xuanjian Village really is a force with a long heritage."
Li Mufeng sighed.
"No, no, it's just a small village. We know a little about forging and rely on selling some flying instruments and flying swords to exchange for cultivation materials."
"This conflict with your church is all a misunderstanding."
"I see your sect doesn't seem to want to kill us. I wonder what conditions you need to agree to in order to let us go?"
Jiang Chen asked.
"Let you go?"
"Wait for you to bring your elders to destroy us?"
Li Mufeng looked at Jiang Chen with a smile.
"No, no, no! Fellow Daoist Li, you misunderstood."
"We in Xuanjian Village do not like fighting. After talking with the cultivators before, we learned that you helped Brother Jing retrieve the jade token, which can be regarded as helping us achieve the goal of this trip."
"Not only do we not have any hatred between us, but we are actually friends." "If you are willing to let us go this time, we can give you three top-level flying swords. If you have any other conditions, you can also raise them."
As if bleeding heavily, Jiang Chen raised three fingers.
Their top-level flying swords are not so easy to forge. Every time they come out to exchange their flying swords, they get three kinds of elixirs: purple monkey flower, heavenly spirit fruit, and chalcedony ganoderma.
Although these three elixirs are the main ingredients of the Foundation Establishment Pill and are extremely priceless, it is impossible for ordinary cultivators to gather the other materials.
So usually when they heard that a casual cultivator in the immortal cultivation world had obtained one of them, they would bring a top-level flying sword to exchange.
The same thing happened to Ke Hua last time. The other party had an immature purple monkey flower in his hand. Jiang Jing wanted to exchange it for a top-level flying sword, but was ambushed.
"You want me to let you go, fine."
Li Mufeng's words made Jiang Chen look happy. He originally just wanted to give it a try, but he didn't expect that he actually agreed. He must have met a good person.
However, Li Mufeng's words immediately made his face change.
"Tell me the location of your Xuanjian Village!"
Hearing this, Jiang Chen fell silent.
To be honest, he really had no intention of taking revenge on this so-called Loose Cultivator Guild, because the strongest person in their Xuanjian Village was only at the late stage of foundation building.
So he really wants to get this matter over with as soon as possible.
It doesn't matter if it costs a little more, but the location of Xuanjian Village must not be told to others.
Because once this is made public, it will lead to other worse things, and may even bring a devastating disaster to Xuanjian Village.
If that were the case, he would rather die.
"It seems that there are no Jindan cultivators in your Xuanjian Village, and their strength does not seem to be very strong."
Li Mufeng seemed to see through it.
The fact that Xuanjian Village needs to rely on a secret location to protect itself means that its strength is not that strong, otherwise what would be the point of telling him.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, perhaps we can have a good talk."
"I am a person who cherishes talents. The three of you are all very strong. I don't want to kill you or treat you as ordinary blood food. That would be a waste."
"How about joining the Loose Cultivators' Guild and working for me?"
Li Mufeng extended an olive branch.
"dream!"
Jiang Cheng refused without hesitation.
"In that case, ten years! I only need ten years of your time."
"For a foundation-building cultivator like you, ten years is just a blink of an eye. And I see that the other two fellow Taoists have already reached the perfection of Qi Refining for some time."
"Maybe in the future I can exchange for foundation-building pills from my Loose Cultivator Guild, and build my foundation successfully."
"I think both of them have good qualifications, they are dual spiritual root cultivators. If your Xuanjian Village has enough foundation building pills, building a foundation will definitely not be a problem. Since they don't have a foundation building, it only means that the number of foundation building pills you have is also very limited."
"Now I already have the Purple Monkey Flower and the Heavenly Spirit Fruit. I just need one more Jade Marrow Ganoderma. Then I can refine a furnace of Foundation Establishment Pills."
"As long as you help our guild complete the mission and earn enough points, you can exchange the foundation-building pill for it."
Li Mufeng was very patient and lowered some of his conditions.
He was not afraid that he would not catch the fish.
Jiang Chen's talent is extraordinary. Logically speaking, at his current age, his cultivation should not be in the initial stage of foundation building.
There is only one explanation for this situation, that is, they do not have the elixirs needed for the cultivation of the foundation-building cultivators.
When such elixirs appear in the Association of Free Cultivators, will Jiang Chen be able to resist the temptation and escape from his grasp?
Looking at this guy's expression as if he would rather die than reveal the location of Xuanjian Village, you can tell that he loves his village.
With such resources, would Jiang Chen enjoy the benefits for himself alone? Not share it with others? Even if he wanted to do that, what about the other two guys?
Sooner or later, all the people and swords in Xuanjian Village will have to belong to him with the surname Li.
Hearing Li Mufeng's condition, Jiang Chen looked at him suspiciously.
"Think about it."
"Let me know when you've made up your mind."
Li Mufeng threw the jade tokens of the three of them back to each other and turned and left.
He knew that there must be some secrets in Xuanjian Village, but he was not in a hurry. A good hunter needed to be patient.
And no matter how big the secret is, it is not as important to him as the Foundation Establishment Pill now.
The most urgent task now is to find the Chalcedony Ganoderma!
As for whether they were worried, there was the issue of these three people running away while performing their mission outside.
I believe they have seen Blood Orchid's methods.
Not long after Li Mufeng left, someone came to report that Qin Gang had returned and had not defected.
He smiled upon hearing the news, it was expected.
Even if he doesn't come back, he has ways to make him shut up. If he dares to let him go, he has the means to control him.
However, he didn't really want to use Qin Gang, who was one of the cultivators who followed him from the beginning.
He had already noticed that this guy was different, but he still gave the choice to him.
If he can overcome this, he will definitely be able to go further in the future.
In addition to talent, cultivation also depends on one's character.
During the last coalition of the three armies, they used formations to capture a lot of high-quality blood food. In addition to the five official Demon Guards he brought at the beginning, who had successfully advanced to the foundation-building stage, there were also seven additional Demon Guards reserve who became regulars, slowly began to practice, and their cultivation gradually caught up.
Three days later, Jiang Chen brought Jiang Jing and Jiang Chuan to find Li Mufeng and agreed to the conditions he had mentioned last time.
Five days later, the spies of the Black Evil Cult reported that the Huang, Jia, and Yu families had been active recently and seemed to be acting dishonestly.
Then, these three families, led by the Huang family's elder who was in the late foundation-building stage, headed towards the Loose Cultivators' Union again.
The outcome and result are self-evident.
Now even if Li Mufeng didn't send out Tie Luo, Li Changsheng, Li Ziyou, Li Muxuan, and Xue Lan, these people, relying solely on the five evil demon cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, would not be able to deal with these three half-buried old guys.
Although these five people are in the early stage of foundation building, their strength can reach the middle stage of foundation building after transforming into monsters, and they also have top-grade magic weapons.
If the Huang family elder was still at the peak of his cultivation, they would naturally not be his match.
But if you are in this state, will the sect let you go back? The sect is not stupid.
If I don’t squeeze out your surplus value, will I let you take home the spiritual stones, top-grade magic tools, and talismans that you got from the sect?
Do you think the sect is some kind of charity?
"Wouldn't it be better to wait and be buried slowly? Why did you have to come and see me off?"
"Please stop sliding. I can't eat it."
