“Well, it’s my fault for going off-topic.” Tian Xiaojian scratched his head and continued, “Here’s the thing. I want to join hands with you to break into the Wondrous Medicine Valley of the Heavenly Vision Sect.”
“Wondrous Medicine Valley?” Lin Xuan did not answer immediately, but frowned and thought for a while. “As the only successor of the Extreme Demon Venerable, do you still lack Spirit Herbs and actually want to steal from the Heavenly Vision Sect?”
“Of course not, I don’t care about the Spirit Herbs. I just want to destroy the spring eye of the Heavenly Vision Sect’s Spiritual Vein.”
“What?! Destroy the Spiritual Vein?”
Hearing this, Lin Xuan showed a strange expression on his face, “Are you kidding me?”
It was no wonder that Lin Xuan was surprised. One must know that every Spiritual Vein in the world had a spring eye. The so-called spring eye is the place where the Spiritual Qi was the most abundant, and also the vital part of the Spiritual Vein. If the spring eye was to be destroyed, the Spiritual Qi there would scatter and flow about.
However, this situation only lasted for a short period of time. The magic of nature, let alone mortals, even immortal cultivators couldn’t imagine how the ruined Spiritual Veins would once again form anew after three or five years.
So doing such a thing is simply meaningless.
Hearing Lin Xuan’s doubt, Tian Xiaojian touched his chin and smiled strangely, “How could I lie to you, big brother? Do you remember that when we entered the mountain, I introduced the Cloud-Splitting Light Array to you?”
“Of course I remember.” Lin Xuan’s eyes flashed. How could he not be impressed by such a powerful array that could even trap old monsters at the Nascent Soul Stage?
“That’s right, my master has repeatedly invited the Heavenly Vision Sect to join our Demonic Dao faction, but the other side was behaving ambiguously and pretended to be ignorant of current affairs. It’s nothing more than an array passed down by their ancestors. They thought that we’d fear the three-point balance, but if I make this array ineffective, do you think they’d still have the ability to bargain?”
“What does making this array invalid have to do with destroying the Spiritual Vein?” Lin Xuan asked in confusion.
Hearing this question, Tian Xiaojian hesitated slightly, but in the end, he patiently explained to Lin Xuan, “Big Brother, there is something you don’t know. The reason why the Cloud-Splitting Light Array is so powerful is that it could mobilize the Spiritual Qi near Heavenly Vision Mountain to attack the enemy. There are two ways to break this array. One is to find five or six seniors of the Nascent Soul Stage. Under their joint effort, the array could naturally be broken with their earth-shattering magical powers. The second is to destroy the Spiritual Vein it relies on. If the veins were destroyed, although it can be reborn in a few years. But during this period, the Heavenly Vision Sect can only bow down to my Demonic Faction…”
Listening to Tian Xiaojian’s narrative, it was reasonable to say that in order to show that he had no malice, the other party was open and honest, and even revealed such an important secret without hesitation. But for some reason, he always felt that something was not right. However, he couldn’t grasp the point. Of course, on the surface, he didn’t show it in the slightest.
No matter how flowery the other party’s words were, he still looked indifferent and listened quietly.
“Big brother, now that I have nothing to hide from you. Will you snitch on me to the Heavenly Vision Sect?” Tian Xiaojian suddenly looked at him with concern.
“You’re overthinking. Although I have no enmity with Heavenly Vision Mountain, I have nothing to do with it. Do you think that I’m the kind of person who likes to meddle in other people’s business? Whether the Heavenly Vision Sect is prosperous or dead has nothing to do with me.” Lin Xuan said coldly.
“That’s good,” Tian Xiaojian patted his chest and said happily. “What do you think? Big Brother, are you willing to cooperate with me?”
“What benefits can I get?” Lin Xuan did not say much and went straight to the point.
“Of course it’s the Myriad Form Grass. The spring eye is also a place full of Spiritual Qi, so it also has the Wondrous Medicine Valley of Heavenly Vision Sect. You don’t even know this!” Tian Xiaojian asked in surprise.
“Of course I know.” Lin Xuan couldn’t help but laugh and berate, “I mean, how can you be sure that the Myriad Forms Grass is there? I don’t want to waste all my efforts in the end.”
“Don’t worry, big brother,” Tian Xiaojian patted his chest, “Since I want to plot against Heavenly Vision Mountain, I naturally have a good understanding of them. Not to mention possessing that, there must also be several other Spirit Herbs that are extinct in the outside world. In ancient times, the Myriad Form Grass was not very precious, and the Wondrous Medicine Valley also had this variety of Spirit Herbs. Although the quantity was not much, seven or eight strains should still be in stock.”
Seven or eight?
Hearing this, Lin Xuan was stunned. Among the medicinal materials needed for the Spirit Nurturing Pill, the Myriad Forms Grass only had an auxiliary function. Every furnace only needed a little bit. That many had far exceeded his needs.
“Big Brother, don’t hesitate, just like what you said earlier, although this younger brother is not talented. I’m still the young master of the Extreme Demon Cave. I don’t lack all kinds of pills and treasures. When I arrive at the Wondrous Medicine Valley, I will only destroy the Spiritual Vein. All kinds of rare herbs in the valley, including the Myriad Forms Grass, will all belong to you.”
“Haha, that’s so kind of you,” said Lin Xuan with a fake smile on his face.
The temptation was too big, but Lin Xuan was still hesitant, “Dear brother, with all due respect, as the disciple of the Extreme Demon Venerable, if you wanted to plot against the Heavenly Vision Sect. You don’t need to do it personally. Even if you volunteered, how can you lack helpers, forcing you to collaborate with me?”
After listening to Lin Xuan’s words, a thick haze flashed across Tian Xiaojian’s face, and suffocating pressure emanated from him.
Lin Xuan was startled. He quickly waved his hand, and a white ray of light shot out. He set a small Restriction around them. Otherwise, with so many experts participating in the Trade Fair. It would be strange if they weren’t discovered.
“My dear brother, what’s the matter?”
Tian Xiaojian woke up with a start, “Sorry, big brother, this is a private matter of my Extreme Demon Cave, it’s hard to explain.”
Lin Xuan nodded and didn’t say much. Since the other party had some unspeakable reasons. He, of course, could only forget it. Just now, the other party also showed his true feelings. However, how sincere he was in cooperating with him. It was hard to make a decision now!
Lin Xuan looked up at Tian Xiaojian. He looked very solemn and spoke slowly, “Since the Wondrous Medicine Valley is in the spring eye of the Spiritual Vein, the security must be strict to the extreme. Both of us are only at the Foundation Establishment Stage. If we break in rashly, I don’t know how confident you are, but I don’t want to die in the formation array.”
“You can rest assured, big brother. You don’t want to die, and I haven’t lived long enough either. I have a perfect plan.” Tian Xiaojian said proudly.
