Chapter 240 The Gamble of the Jindan Monk
Among the disciples of the seven major sects, Mo Juren paid special attention to the Huangfeng Valley and Yanyue Sect.

The leader of the Huangfeng Valley team was a majestic square-faced old man. The one carrying the people was actually a silver python over twenty feet long, which was even more imposing than the giant flying bats of the monks from the Spirit Beast Mountain.

Moreover, among the disciples of Huangfeng Valley, a short dwarf was very conspicuous. He was actually Master Jin Guang who had just joined Huangfeng Valley not long ago!
Han Yunzhi and Master Jin Guang, Mo Juren didn't expect to meet two acquaintances in a row here, which made him speechless.

The Yanyue Sect, which is known to be the strongest of the seven sects, also opened Mo Juren's eyes.

Not only was it because they were on a huge magic ship, which was carved entirely from jade and painted in gold, and was luxurious and gorgeous, but the entire ship was wrapped in a shining light shield, flowing with the light of the formation.

Moreover, the disciples coming from this sect are all young handsome men and beautiful women, all dressed in white, with delicate faces that are enviable.

The leader of the Yanyue Sect was the only female Jindan cultivator. Although she was dressed like a young woman, she had a beautiful face, charming posture, and a variety of charm revealed in her every move, which was breathtaking. She moved many young male cultivators present and they expressed their admiration without reservation.

But for some reason, Mo Juren seemed to sense a familiar smell from her.

After thinking about it carefully, he suddenly realized that it was the young master Liuhua who engraved the love order on him, and they had the same temperament.

After the disciples of Yanyue Sect arrived, all seven major sects had gathered. Those Jindan cultivators who had been floating in the sky and talking in secret, landed one by one and greeted the young Jindan woman from Yanyue Sect.

"Fairy Rainbow! You are finally here. We have been waiting for you!"

It turns out that this young woman's name is Nishang, but with her temperament and cultivation, she really deserves the title of fairy!

Nichang landed the jade boat, removed the formation shield, and then turned the big boat into a small magic weapon and put it away.

Then she calmly returned the greetings one by one.
"Sorry for keeping you waiting, brothers. I am here to greet you."

The other male cultivators did not dare to neglect and quickly returned the greeting. Then they chatted for a while, seemingly talking about gambling games in previous years.

It turned out that they were several Jindan monks who would gamble every year on which disciple of their sect could bring out the largest number of spiritual medicines.

I don't know whether this tradition is just a kind of fun for these high-level monks, or whether it serves as a disguised way to motivate their disciples.

From the names of the people, Mo Juren learned that the square-faced old man leading the Huangfeng Valley team was actually named Li Huayuan. He and the stern Taoist Huang Ning of the Qingxu Sect set the stakes for the bet.

I only heard Li Huayuan say,

"Ox Nose, then it's a deal. Please ask Fairy Nishang and others to be witnesses. We will still follow the conditions of previous years. After seven days, whichever side of our sect brings out the most spiritual medicines will win!"

Taoist Huang Ning bowed with one hand and said,
"Master Li is really straightforward. I will swear an oath with you by high-five! But it may not be that easy for you to win this Bloodline Dragon Inner Pill from me. You'd better prepare the two pieces of Black Iron Essence I need as soon as possible, haha!"

The two men agreed on the terms of the bet and were about to high-five when the bearded Jindan from Lingshou Mountain intervened and said,
"Wait a minute, you two! Everyone in the sect has said that the Blood Forbidden Land was opened ahead of schedule this time in order to get more spiritual medicines out. Otherwise, the Forbidden Land will have to be closed for 50 years to recuperate." "It would have been fine if you two had made a private bet before, but this year is different from previous years. We have specially found that group of independent cultivators to help. It would be inappropriate for you two to form a small circle again."

"Everyone, listen. I, Lu Shanze, suggest that if we want to gamble, we should gamble together. All seven families will place bets together, and the winnings and losses will be divided among them. This will prevent some sects from secretly increasing the incentives for their disciples and affecting the overall situation of picking spiritual herbs! What do you think?"

After hearing this, Mo Juren learned a lot of useful information. It turned out that the opening of the Blood Forbidden Land was also carried out in advance. He wondered if it had any connection with the Ascension Conference which was also held in advance.

Moreover, from what he said, the Blood Forbidden Land will be closed for fifty years after it is opened. Perhaps it is for this reason that the seven major sects have asked him and these independent cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage to serve as temporary manpower and make a big move at once!
After the spirit beast Shanlu Shanze finished speaking, several other cultivators also agreed to join the gambling game because of their reasonable arguments. So Li Huayuan exchanged glances with Taoist Huang Ning and said,

"Well, since everyone is willing to do so, then take out treasures of equal value. You all saw the bet I made with the Qingxu Sect's Niubizi just now, right?"

"My Huangfeng Valley brought out two pieces of black iron essence that I personally refined with true fire, and the Qingxu Sect brought out the third-level bloodline dragon inner elixir. If you have any treasures, please bring them out for everyone to see!"

The spirit beast Shanlu Shanze immediately responded,
"What I want to give out from Spirit Beast Mountain is a bottle of the heart blood of a fourth-level monster. Is this a good amount of money?"

After saying that, the bearded Lu Shanze took out a transparent glass bottle from his arms. Inside was a red liquid with great spiritual power. He was proudly showing it to the monks.

Mo Juren was secretly shocked when he heard this. According to the classification of monsters, a fourth-order monster is equivalent to the late stage of foundation building. With such a bottle of heart essence blood, the spiritual power contained in it is probably extraordinary!

Sure enough, Li Huayuan nodded and said,
"Spiritual Beast Mountain is indeed worthy of being a place for taming beasts. I, Li, approve of this bottle of heart blood!"

Afterwards, Zhang Jinyi, the sick young master of Huadaowu, Master Dili of Tianque Fort, Fan Lin of Jujianmen and Fairy Nishang also took out some of their sect's special materials and magic weapons and joined in the bet.

Just as everyone was about to make the decision and slap each other to take the oath, a man suddenly appeared out of nowhere and laughed,
"Hahaha, wait a minute, wait a minute, why don't you invite me to join in on such an interesting bet!"

I saw the figure of this person slowly emerging. He was a strange man who was unkempt, looked sloppy, and dressed strangely like a beggar.

He was wearing a blue shirt that had been washed so much that it looked pale, with several patches on it, short hair, and a greasy face.

After seeing the visitor's appearance clearly, the Fairy Nishang of Yanyue Sect was the first to bow and say,

"Meet Uncle Master Qiong."

The other Jindan cultivators present also greeted him, calling him "Senior Qiong" one after another, and showed him great respect.

Mo Juren and other wandering cultivators looked at each other in bewilderment. They had never expected that such an ugly cultivator was actually a disciple of the Yanyue Sect like those handsome men and beautiful women.
