#119 - The great master of golden elixir, He Ling Zhenren!
He was confident in himself, believing he could barely handle two Celestial Realm cultivators.
But if there were four Celestial Realm cultivators… and hidden enemies in the dark, that would exceed his capabilities.
“Xia Mingyang, you can’t protect this kid! Because I’ve decided to kill him!”
The old man surnamed Wu first gave Gu Yuan a sinister look, then sneered:
“Not only this kid, but even you, and your Jade Cauldron Pavilion, this old man won’t let go. All of you must die!”
“What big words!”
A cold voice rang out, not loud, but clearly reaching everyone’s ears:
“Jade Cauldron Pavilion is the property of my Medicine King Mountain. Even the Gu God Sect and the Yuanming Sect wouldn’t dare to say such arrogant things. You, a mere Celestial Realm cultivator, dare to destroy the property of my Medicine King Mountain?”
The crowd looked at each other, not knowing where the voice came from.
But the monkey trainer Meng Hong, Su Xiaoyue, Xia Mingyang, and the old man surnamed Wu all showed subtle changes in their expressions.
Because even they couldn’t detect where the voice originated.
What did this mean? They were well aware.
Especially the words of this person, all indicating that he was also from Medicine King Mountain.
Gu Yuan clearly noticed a hint of surprise on his Pavilion Master Xia Mingyang’s face.
“Could it be…”
A guess surfaced in his mind, and then he suddenly looked up.
Screech—
A clear and melodious crane cry came from the high sky, the sound deafening, and seemingly containing a strange power that made everyone’s muscles and bones tremble.
Then, a crane flew from the high sky.
This crane was bigger than an elephant, its body snow-white, its wings like sharp swords, and the red crest on its head was as bright as a leaping flame, making it look extremely divine!
Especially the aura it emitted gave everyone a sense of oppression.
Even Meng Hong and Su Xiaoyue were no exception.
On the back of the crane stood a young and handsome Taoist, with a hint of indifference and sharpness between his eyebrows. At this moment, he was overlooking below.
The crane flew extremely fast, almost instantly flying down, stirring up a gust of wind, like flying sand and stones.
Before landing, the young Taoist had already appeared in front of everyone.
The crane landed gracefully, its two iron claws easily sinking into the paved stone slabs, leisurely using its long beak to groom its snow-white, sword-like feathers.
Only when it occasionally glanced at the white-haired monkey, a hint of disdain seemed to flash in its eyes.
Seeing this white crane, the monkey’s face was full of tension, vigilance, like facing a great enemy, even with a hint of fear, where was the rebellious attitude it had before?
Meng Hong’s forehead was faintly sweating, and he hurriedly landed from the roof to avoid offending the other party.
Su Xiaoyue retreated a distance without a trace.
The old man surnamed Wu on the other side was dumbfounded.
The mount spirit beast, the crane, was already so terrifying, so what kind of cultivation should its owner possess?
The words he had just said were pleasant, but he had already offended the other party.
What should he do?!
As for Wei Chuan, he wanted to slip away quietly when he saw the situation was not good, but he felt a strange pressure enveloping a hundred feet around, making him unable to move.
“Disciple Xia Mingyang, greets Ninth Elder!”
Xia Mingyang hurriedly stepped forward, cupped his hands and saluted the young Taoist, his attitude extremely respectful.
Old Mo and Gu Yuan also hurriedly followed suit.
The person who came was the Ninth Elder of Medicine King Mountain, True Person He Ling!
And also a great cultivator who had forged the Golden Core and entered the Saint Realm!
The Golden Core Dao is the condensation of essence, qi, and spirit into one, the life locked in the Golden Core, giving birth to a bit of immortal golden nature, and therefore a long lifespan, possessing the supernatural powers of cutting rivers and breaking mountains, moving mountains and filling seas, and can live for eight hundred to a thousand years!
Such a person has truly embarked on the path of transcendence and sanctification. There is an essential difference from ordinary cultivators. No matter where they are, they are definitely a great figure with a lofty status!
In the eyes of worldly people, they are like living gods.
“Xia Mingyang? Hmph!”
True Person He Ling looked at Xia Mingyang, who was bowing and saluting in front of him, with a faint expression: “You are really cunning, actually waiting until you have cultivated to the Celestial Realm before informing the sect about obtaining the Crimson Dragon Token. You only refined it now.”
“Could it be that you are afraid that someone in the sect will take your things?”
Feeling the terrifying pressure from True Person He Ling, it seemed that even the entire world had solidified, and the spiritual energy between heaven and earth had become stagnant.
Xia Mingyang only felt that he was like a small bug wrapped in amber, unable to move, and a terrible feeling of helplessness and isolation arose spontaneously.
Sweat appeared on his forehead: “Disciple… Disciple dare not!”
“Dare not? Hmph! You can get the Crimson Dragon Token, this is your chance, wanting to seek some benefits from it is human nature, which is understandable.”
True Person He Ling coldly swept around the few people who were facing a great enemy: “It’s just that you have gained benefits, but you have to trouble me to clean up the mess for you!”
“Disciple…”
Xia Mingyang opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but was stopped by He Ling waving his hand:
“Alright, this matter is ultimately the sect taking advantage of you. You have also made great contributions to the sect, so I am too lazy to say anything to you.”
Xia Mingyang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this: “Thank you for the elder’s understanding.”
Gu Yuan was as quiet as a quail on the side, honest and silent.
Only seeing Xia Mingyang being reprimanded like a grandson, he felt a little strange in his heart:
“This True Person He Ling’s mood seems to be a little bad…”
“But listening to True Person He Ling’s meaning, Xia Mingyang clearly obtained the Crimson Dragon Token a long time ago, and then began to find a way to break through to the Celestial Realm. Only after refining the Crimson Dragon Token did he inform the sect.”
“Because even if he is in the Celestial Realm, he can’t protect this treasure. Unless Medicine King Mountain takes action, he can both protect the Crimson Dragon Token, get the chance to enter the Immortal Palace, and share the benefits of this item, making contributions to the sect. In this way, he can eat two portions of benefits from one Crimson Dragon Token.”
Gu Yuan muttered in his heart:
“Xia Mingyang, this guy, is really cunning and treacherous!”
Thinking like this, he looked at the divine crane:
“But this crane is extraordinary, elegant and agile. Could it be a special kind of crane, a Spiritual Void Cloud Crane?”
In Gu Yuan’s view, that big monkey has high intelligence, steel muscles and iron bones, and is extremely strong, definitely not inferior to the Ah Huang, Ah Wu, and Big Mouth he raised.
However, compared with the incomparably divine Spiritual Void Cloud Crane in front of him, it is obviously much inferior!
Not to mention True Person He Ling, even if this crane did it itself, no one present could stop it.
After reprimanding Xia Mingyang, True Person He Ling turned his gaze and landed on the old man surnamed Wu:
“Was it you who just said that you wanted to destroy Jade Cauldron Pavilion and kill the disciples of my Medicine King Mountain?”
True Person He Ling’s gaze was ordinary, but the old man surnamed Wu’s flesh suddenly tightened, feeling as if he was being targeted by a sharp and unparalleled divine sword.
His hairs stood on end, and his skin tingled!
