Chapter 225 Is Mingyue Sect Still Short of People?

On the other side, Mu Lingyan not only found the storage bag, but also found several bamboo slips. These bamboo slips recorded the evil magic cultivation techniques and how to cultivate the [Ten Thousand Hearts Demonic Gu].

Mu Lingyan frowned and said, "The techniques of the immortal world are usually carried on jade, and the techniques are engraved into the jade using spiritual power and magic. Because the paper in the mortal world cannot carry the techniques of the immortal world, could it be that the techniques recorded on these bamboo slips are all fake? If the techniques were real, the bamboo slips would have shattered long ago, and there is no way they could have been preserved until now..."

At this time, a big black sesame seed came out from Mu Lingyan's arms, waving its two small arms, and said excitedly: "Mu Lingyan, quickly put these skills away. This is not an ordinary bamboo slip, but a thing called [Dark Jade]..."

Mu Lingyan asked: "What is [Dark Jade]?"

Big Black Sesame said, "Have you heard of [Divine Objects that Obscure Themselves]? Rare treasures should have a dazzling brilliance, but they will disguise themselves as ordinary objects. Most people cannot recognize their true appearance and thus miss out on the treasures. [Obscure Jade] is one of them."

"The disguised appearance of [Dark Jade] is a bamboo slip, and its characteristic is that it is impervious to water and fire. It has been passed down for thousands of years and remains immortal. Most people do not know its true purpose. Using it as a carrier to record skills is really a waste of natural resources!"

Black Sesame had no nose or ears, only two bright eyes, a mouth, and limbs as thin as sticks. Its eyes lit up as it said, "And I happen to know the purpose of [Dark Jade]. As long as it is soaked in blood for 49 days, [Dark Jade] will lose its bamboo slip appearance and return to its original appearance."

Mu Lingyan asked: "What does it originally look like?"

"This... I don't know about this either~" Black Sesame laughed a few times, "After all, this kind of thing only exists in legends. I'm just a big black sesame that has become a spirit. It's great that I can recognize [Dark Jade]. I've never seen its true appearance."

After saying that, it sighed and said, "You must have great luck. You became a disciple of the Mingyue Sect Master and have a rare thunder spirit root. Your cultivation is going smoothly. Now you have obtained eight bamboo slips. I see that these eight bamboo slips are all [Dark Jade]. You have made a fortune today. These are all priceless treasures..."

"Really?" Mu Lingyan also laughed, "That's great, I can give them all to Master."

"Give them all away?" Black Sesame's eyes widened, his gaze revealing reluctance. "You should have kept one secretly, so that I can learn more."

Mu Lingyan said: "No. Everything I have was given by Master, and everything I have gained should also be dedicated to Master."

"Well, since the things are yours, of course you should deal with them..."

Black Sesame Grain muttered, "I wouldn't have come out if I had known. Anyway, this [Dark Jade] doesn't belong to me."

Mu Lingyan said: "You are just a spiritual medicine, not a human, what do you want [Dark Jade] for?"

Black Sesame said: "I heard that every piece of [Dark Jade] in the world is unique, and each piece has different abilities, so it can be called a rare treasure. There is a unique space hidden in a meeting. There are many spiritual fields in this space. If you plant spiritual medicine like me in it, I can turn into a human baby..."

Mu Lingyan looked suspicious. "Isn't that right? I feel that the most important thing about rare treasures is the word [rare], because things are valuable when they are rare, but here are eight bamboo slips... Are they really [Dark Jade]?"

Hearing this, Black Sesame Seed felt a little guilty, "Ah, this, I'm suddenly not sure... Maybe I made a mistake?"

At this time, Luo Mingyue coughed lightly.

Mu Lingyan heard the voice, turned around, and asked in surprise: "Master?"

Luo Mingyue responded, "Yeah."

In fact, Luo Mingyue had already arrived when Big Black Sesame talked about [Hui Yu], but she appeared quietly and Mu Lingyan did not notice her.

"Master, I am ready to present these to you..." Mu Lingyan bowed and presented the bamboo slips together with the storage bag.

Luo Mingyue glanced at the contents recorded on the bamboo slips and asked, "Is [Hui Yu] afraid of the divine fire?"

The big black sesame seed said, "Of course I'm not afraid. It is an eternal existence, nurtured by heaven and earth, and it can never be destroyed."

Luo Mingyue nodded, "That's good."

As she spoke, white flames ignited at her fingertips, and the flames enveloped all eight bamboo slips.

Anyway, what is recorded on these bamboo slips are all magical powers, so I won't feel bad about burning them. I can just think of it as getting rid of harm for the people.

As the flames burned, six of the bamboo slips quickly turned into ashes, leaving only the last two bamboo slips intact.

Big Black Sesame blinked his eyes and said, "It seems that there are two pieces of [Dark Jade], which is really good luck..."

Mu Lingyan asked, "What about the other six bamboo slips?"

Luo Mingyue said: "It may be because they have been stored with the [Dark Jade] for many years, and have been contaminated with the aura of the [Dark Jade]. They are no longer ordinary objects, so they can carry magic power."

After saying that, she threw the two intact bamboo slips to Mu Lingyan.

Mu Lingyan reached out to catch it and asked in confusion: "Master, what is this for?"

Luo Mingyue said: "You take it. I don't even bother to snatch things from my apprentice."

The most important thing is that this [Dark Jade] needs to be soaked in blood for forty-nine days, which sounds very troublesome and she doesn't have the patience.

Mu Lingyan said: "How can this be considered robbery? Master raised me from childhood and spent a lot of effort. I don't know how to repay Master. I can only offer flowers and Buddha..."

Luo Mingyue waved her hand and said, "Then you raise [Dark Jade] and give it to me."

Big Black Sesame said: "No, whoever's blood is used to soak the [Dark Jade] will be the owner of the [Dark Jade], and no one else can replace it."

Mu Lingyan asked: "Is it not possible to transfer it as a gift?"

Big Black Sesame said, "I don't know about that."

Luo Mingyue said: "Don't worry about it. If [Dark Jade] is really useful, you can lend it to me when I need it."

"Master..." Mu Lingyan wanted to say something else, but Luo Mingyue interrupted him and said impatiently: "Okay, you are a man, be decisive and don't give in to others."

Mu Lingyan immediately swallowed the rest of his words and silently put the two bamboo slips into his arms.

The big black sesame seed was ecstatic. It stuck to the two bamboo slips and muttered to itself, "Oh my god, I can actually sleep next to a rare treasure. I am so successful..."

As for the storage bags that Mu Lingyan found, Luo Mingyue took them in his hands, erased the prohibitions on them, and after checking, he found that thirty of the storage bags were filled with spirit stones.

The eighteen storage bags contain fasting pills, healing pills, detoxification pills and other elixirs commonly used by immortal cultivators.

Twenty storage bags contained various poisons, evil instruments, and secret manuals for cultivating poisonous insects. Five storage bags contained daily necessities, various robes, bronze mirrors, tables, chairs, and benches.

The last five storage bags contain talismans, swords, etc., but these talismans are not good things. There are sleeping spells, hypnotic spells, and obedient talismans. As for the swords, the quality is not very good and can be regarded as disposable consumables.

Luo Mingyue took away the twenty storage bags containing poison and evil magical weapons, and threw the remaining fifty-eight storage bags to Mu Lingyan.

"Look, there are a lot of things in there that you can use."

Mu Lingyan said: "Master, I have already obtained the [Dark Jade], there are too many storage bags, I can't take them..."

Luo Mingyue said: "These are useless to me."

In her opinion, so many storage bags are not as practical as the rice and noodles that contain spiritual energy.

Mu Lingyan said: "Then these should be regarded as rewards from our master to me and my fellow junior brothers and sisters?"

Luo Mingyue said: "It's up to you."

She doesn't care about such trivial matters.

"Oh right," Mu Lingyan patted his head, almost forgetting the most important thing, "Master, I went out for a while at noon today, and when I came back I found that all my junior brothers and sisters were missing. I went out to look for them, but was tricked by the city lord's daughter and locked up here. I don't know if everyone is safe?"

Luo Mingyue said: "It's safe, but I suffered a little. But I have avenged them. You can go and meet up with them."

Mu Lingyan responded: "Yes, Master."

Luo Mingyue raised his hand and teleported his body directly outside, not far from Bai Tian.

At this time, Bai Tian and others had been surrounded by many cultivators.

"Are you all disciples of Sect Leader Luo? What are her criteria for accepting disciples?"

"Does your sect still need disciples who can grow spiritual herbs? I used to be a farmer. I cultivated hundreds of acres of spiritual fields by myself and even cultivated a spiritual herb. I'm very capable. Could you please accept me?"

"I am good at raising bees. Every bee can convey messages, and the honey they make is very sweet."

"I can refine weapons! In the past, I was often sought after when I went out because the magic weapons I refined were very useful. This time I came to Sha City because I received a large order. The Lord of Sha City promised me a high fee of spirit stones and asked me to hurry up and forge weapons for his guards. As a result, after I finished forging, he threw me here... He is such a treacherous villain, who is unfaithful and ungrateful. Now that Sect Master Luo has helped me to avenge myself and saved my life, I must repay him."

Someone beside him nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, I am also a person who knows how to repay kindness. Although I don't have any special skills, I have a loyal heart. I am very strong and can do hard labor. I can also guard the mountain gate. I heard that there are not many people in Mingyue Sect and there is not even a gatekeeper. I would like to ask to help guard the gate. Is that okay?"

Bai Tian was overwhelmed after hearing this. "Don't tell us this. We can't decide."

Mo Xiguang said: "Please don't make things difficult for us. We will wait for Master to come over and take Master as the priority."

"Okay, okay... Sir, may I ask how many disciples of Sect Master Luo you are? I have a daughter who is stunningly beautiful and has a single spiritual root whose attribute is water. My daughter has a gentle and lovely temperament. I wonder if you have any plans to find a Taoist partner?"

Mo Xiguang shook his head repeatedly, "I only want to cultivate immortality, nothing else."

"Young Master, you don't understand this, do you? Being alone is lonely, but being with someone is different. You can practice together and make progress together. Isn't that wonderful?" The man who spoke lowered his voice and added, "My daughter is a disciple of the Hehuan Sect and still has no Taoist partner. I think you two are quite suitable..."

Mo Xiguang shuddered, "Uncle, thank you for your kindness, but I really can't afford it."

Someone nearby said, "The Hehuan Sect's skills are evil. Don't ever consider the women of the Hehuan Sect. They will suck away all the spiritual energy you have worked so hard to cultivate."

"Stop slandering me! What you said is something that only evil practitioners would do. My daughter is very clever and well-behaved. Practicing with her will be mutually beneficial. It will not only be a physical fit, but also a spiritual entanglement, which will be wonderful."

"My God, you are so shameless that you even want to marry the disciples of Master Mingyue."

"Humph, don't you want to? The sect master treats his disciples so well. If my daughter can become a Taoist couple with the sect master's disciples, she will definitely live a happy life. I am also looking for a way out for my daughter."

The man who was speaking had a self-blaming look on his face. He added, "I actually received a message from my daughter this time. She said that a senior uncle in the Hehuan Sect had taken a fancy to her and wanted to force her. Unfortunately, my daughter and I don't have any strong backing. I am just a casual cultivator and cannot compete with the Hehuan Sect. I used to live near the Hehuan Sect. This time I went out to find helpers, but when I passed by Shacheng, I was unlucky and was caught. I don't know what happened to my daughter... In the final analysis, it's all my fault as a useless father. I failed to provide her with a safe environment to grow up."

"No way? Your daughter has a single spiritual root and good aptitude. She should be one of the sect's elite. Wouldn't her master protect her? Would he just let her be forced by his uncle?"

"Please, that's the Hehuan Sect... The sect believes that combining with the strong is beneficial to cultivation..."

"Well, that should be based on your mutual consent."

Mo Xiguang heard this and said, "I'm sorry, I can't help you save your daughter. After all, I was just saved by my master, and I'm embarrassed to ask my master to save others."

There are many poor people in the world, and Master cannot save them all.

The man said, "There is no need to trouble Sect Master Luo. All you need to do is come with me. When the time comes, as long as you reveal your identity, no one in the sect will dare to bully us, father and daughter."

Mo Xiguang stared at the man deeply and said, "Do you dare to swear that everything you just said is true?"

The man stiffened his neck and said, "Of course it's true."

Mo Xiguang said: "Then you swear an oath to the heavens. If it is true, I will accompany you."

The people around him praised Mo Xiguang for his kindness, and urged the man to swear, but the man turned around and tried to run. The people around him quickly subdued him and asked, "Why are you running?"

The man refused to answer.

The people around him repeatedly questioned him, and the man could only say with a sad face: "What I just said was all a lie. I just wanted to trick the sect master's disciple over. My daughter has several lovers in the Hehuan Sect, and one of them is in the foundation-building stage. As long as we trick the sect master's disciple over, by the time the rice is cooked, it will be too late for him to regret it..."

After hearing this, everyone was furious. "The Sect Master saved our lives, and you actually plotted against her apprentice!"

The man was beaten severely. He wailed, "I was wrong. It's all my fault that I was bewildered..."

"get out!"

All the immortal cultivators were filled with dissatisfaction. After such a thing happened, it was not convenient for them to introduce Taoist partners to the sect master's disciples. Instead, they began to inquire about Luo Mingyue's preferences, hoping to join the Mingyue Sect, even if it was just to be a menial disciple. After all, everyone had witnessed how powerful the sect master was.
