Chapter 783

Maybe it's because people talk more as they get older.

Li Mao kept talking, and Jiang Yuan listened quietly.

"Your master should be very strong now," Li Mao smiled, "You can give him a message, saying that I don't have much time left, and ask him to choose a disciple from Dingyuan Sect for some training. Don't

It’s best to let the Dingyuan Sect disperse.”

Jiang Yuan nodded, "When I see Master, I will definitely bring you the message."

"It's just that Master travels around the world, and I don't know when I will see him next time."

"So I suggest you, uncle, train the next sect leader yourself."

Li Mao sighed, "I don't want to trouble Junior Brother Qingyi, but I really don't have much time left."

Jiang Yuan smiled and shook his head, and took out a few pills from his arms, "If you take one of these pills every six months, your uncle will be able to persist for a few more years."

Li Mao looked at the elixir handed over by Jiang Yuan and shook his head, "You can keep it. It's not worth using such a precious thing on me."

Jiang Yuan smiled and handed the elixir to Li Mao's hand.

"Uncle, you are worrying too much. I am an alchemist myself. An alchemist will never be short of elixirs."

Li Mao nodded and accepted Jiang Yuan's kindness.

"By the way, Uncle Master, when Master left, did he say where he was going?"

Li Mao recalled for a moment, "It took too long. I only remember that he said he wanted to visit some old friends."

Jiang Yuan nodded and said to Li Mao:

"Uncle Master, aren't you curious about what happened to Master after he left Dingyuan Sect?"

Li Mao smiled and shook his head, "He talked to me when he came here decades ago. He said that he traveled far and wide, went to many places, met many people, and finally joined a pretty good sect."

Jiang Yuan did not speak. It seemed that Song Qingyi concealed her identity because she did not want to create a gap between Li Mao and herself because of her status.

After having dinner at Dingyuanmen again, Jiang Yuan said goodbye and left.

After Li Mao took the elixir given by Jiang Yuan, his physical condition improved and he was able to walk on the ground.

Jiang Yuan hummed a little tune and quickly found Xue Lingfeng. She was still fighting Luo Hongchen's two disciples. Judging from the appearance of the three of them, they were all exhausted.

Jiang Yuan himself was well fed and drunk, and easily subdued the two masters who had exhausted their strength.

They were tied up by Jiang Yuan, leaning against a big tree, and watched as Jiang Yuan handed the food he brought to Xue Lingfeng.

Xue Lingfeng frowned and looked at the two opponents who were tied up with five flowers, and asked curiously: "What kind of binding technique is this, and why does it look so weird?"

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "I tied them casually. Senior sister, you eat first and I'll go and talk to them. There is no deep hatred between us. It's not a problem that they are chasing after me."

Xue Lingfeng nodded.

Jiang Yuan walked up to the two women, sat cross-legged two meters in front of them, and said with a smile:

"Two senior sisters, I'll let you go and you can happily return to Daughter's City, okay?"

One of them glared at Jiang Yuan, "You're a bastard! You're a rascal!"

Jiang Yuan suddenly became a little unhappy. He glared and said, "I wonder if the people in your Daughter City scold everyone they see."

"What did I do to you, and you want to scold me like this?"

"Let's figure it out. It's you who have been chasing me. It's my style to be able to talk to you properly now!"

The woman snorted coldly, her eyes full of murderous intent, "No man is good!"

Jiang Yuan was immediately speechless.

"So, if I let you go, will you continue to hunt me down?"

"certainly!"

Jiang Yuan snorted coldly, "Then you can continue to be tied up!"

After saying that, Jiang Yuan walked back to Xue Lingfeng.

Xue Lingfeng did not ask about the result of the conversation between Jiang Yuan and the two women. Instead, she frowned and asked, "Have you found any clues?"

Jiang Yuan

Nodding, "He should be visiting his old friends, so we are going to three places next, and there is an old friend of his in each place."

Xue Lingfeng asked for no reason at this time:

"Is it a man or a woman?"

Jiang Yuan shook his head, "I don't know about this. Is this... important?"

Xue Lingfeng did not answer and concentrated on eating.

After Xue Lingfeng finished her meal, Jiang Yuan called her to get ready to leave.

Xue Lingfeng glanced at the two women who were tied up, "Aren't you going to untie them?"

The ropes binding the two of them were specially made, and even the monks could not break free.

Jiang Yuan was still angry, so he shook his head and said coldly:

"Let them go and let them continue to hunt me?"

"Let's go, leave them alone."

Xue Lingfeng, however, approached them and whispered something, then with a flick of her finger, she untied the ropes from the two of them.

They immediately stood up and looked at Xue Lingfeng eagerly, but did not make a move.

Xue Lingfeng then turned around and walked away with Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan asked curiously: "Didn't they say they wanted to continue chasing? Why didn't they stop chasing?"

"What did you whisper to them just now?"

Xue Lingfeng shook her head and looked at Jiang Yuan seriously, "You don't understand women."

"What you say is not important, what you think is important."

Jiang Yuan pondered this sentence for a while, and finally shook his head, "I don't need to understand."

In the next month, the two went to three places and found three of Song Qingyi's old friends, all of whom were men.

Although one of them had already passed away, Jiang Yuan still found out where Song Qingyi was.

On the way, Xue Lingfeng asked Jiang Yuan to take out the notebook, pointed to the English letters on it and said:

"Why can you understand it?"

Jiang Yuan smiled, "This is actually a very niche language, but it has been lost. I happened to be exposed to this language, so I know a little bit about it."

"If Senior Sister Lingfeng wants to learn, I can also teach you."

After receiving Xue Lingfeng's affirmative nod, Jiang Yuan wrote twenty-six letters on the ground.

"Sister, come and read with me."

"Ah, Bo, Ba,... Bo, Po, Touch, Buddha..."

It has to be said that Xue Lingfeng's learning talent is very terrifying. In just one day, he memorized twenty-six letters in both upper and lowercase letters.

Two months later, Jiang Yuan and the two of them had visited most of the places recorded in the notes.

On this day, the two came to the edge of a desert.

According to Jiang Yuan's calculations and the information he learned, Song Qingyi came here more than ten years ago.

Jiang Yuan and Xue Lingfeng ran on the Gobi Desert for two days and finally saw the endless desert ahead.

The tall sand dunes are undulating, and their edges seem to connect with the sky.

The strangest thing is that the color of this desert actually appears a dark red, like dried blood.

Grab a handful of grains of sand, each grain seems to have been soaked in blood.

Xue Lingfeng's expression was even more solemn.

"This desert is called the Blood Desert, and it is an ancient battlefield."

Jiang Yuan nodded, "I saw records in the Jade Spirit Sect's Sutra Pavilion that there was a monk war that swept through the entire inner world ten thousand years ago."

"At that time, the monks in the inner world were divided into three factions. The decisive battle was held here. It is said that one-fifth of the monks in the inner world died here."

"That's right," Xue Lingfeng nodded lightly, "It was also after that battle that the forces in the inner world were reshuffled. It was after that battle that our Tianming Sect emerged."

"Because of this, there are countless things left by monks in this blood desert, including spiritual weapons, elixirs, treasured armor, and techniques..."

"Many explorers often come to this place, but not many people dare to approach it deep in the Blood Desert."

"and

Like the Black Mist Forest, the Blood Desert is also one of the most mysterious forbidden places."

"It's just that this forbidden area was created by man."

Jiang Yuan frowned and looked at Xue Lingfeng, "Senior Sister Lingfeng, why do you think Song Qingyi came here?"

When Xue Lingfeng heard Jiang Yuan calling her master's name directly, she was not angry and shook her head calmly:

"I have no idea."

"But there are more than a dozen first-rate sect leaders and hundreds of elders buried here."

"Those sects are several times more powerful than today's Tianming Sect."

Jiang Yuan said 'hmm', "The Blood Desert is too big, and no one has ever been close to the core area."

"It's really difficult for us to find the clues left by Song Qingyi."

"It's hard to find it!" Xue Lingfeng looked determined, "We must find it!"

Jiang Yuan looked at Xue Lingfeng calmly, "Senior Sister Lingfeng, I have always been curious. Your father said that this is the time when Tianming Sect's survival is in danger."

"I never understand where the crisis comes from. Can you tell me?"

Xue Lingfeng was silent for a long time before looking at the vast desert and whispered:

"Do you know why my father was locked in the secret room under the Sutra Library?"

Jiang Yuan shook his head and waited quietly for Xue Lingfeng's explanation.

"At that time, all the first-class forces tried to open up the channels between the internal and external worlds and planned to carve up the territory of the outside world. My father also went there."

"It's just that my father didn't agree to open the passage, so he took action during the process of opening the passage, disrupting the spatial rules of the passage."

"That resulted in the passage being blocked even more tightly, and my father was jointly hunted down by the sect leaders of those first-rate forces."

"Although my father later escaped back to Tianming Sect, he was seriously injured. Later, his strength improved by leaps and bounds, but he also left sequelae."

"His power will affect his sanity, and he will fall into a state of unconscious madness. He will not be able to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, and will kill endlessly."

"That's why Master locked my father up with a special chain."

Jiang Yuan nodded and asked doubtfully: "How could your father escape with so many first-rate power sect leaders joining forces? And why is he unwilling to open the passage?"

Xue Lingfeng spoke softly: "I was able to escape because Master was secretly helping me, and taking action to prevent the passage was also the order Master gave my father."

Jiang Yuan squinted his eyes and asked the last question:

"Aren't you saying that the outside world is a place of exile? Why do the top forces in the inner world want to carve up the territory of the outside world?"

Xue Lingfeng shook her head, "Of course it's for profit."

"Although the spiritual energy in the outside world is thin and unsuitable for monks to live in, it does not mean that there are no geniuses in the outside world."

"The first-class forces have agreed to equally divide the seven continents in the outside world. Each of them will establish its own sect, recruit disciples, and then select geniuses to enter the inner world. In fact, it is to strengthen its own sect."

"But I don't know why Master ordered my father to stop this."

Jiang Yuan frowned, "Your father said that the time has come when Tianming Sect's survival is critical. Could it be related to what happened back then?"

Xue Lingfeng nodded.

"Those first-class forces back then were always waiting for the opportunity to take revenge on our Tianming Sect. It is not an exaggeration to say that our Tianming Sect was the target of public criticism."

"It's just that this matter is very secret. Only the first-rate power sect leaders and core elders know about it."

"The reason why they have not retaliated is because they are afraid of my master."

"Master's strength far exceeds theirs."

"It's just that Master hasn't shown up for so many years, and they can no longer hold back."

"In the past year, strong men from other first-rate forces have been sneaking into our Tianming Sect to investigate."

"So, the Tianming Sect is really at a critical moment!"

Jiang Yuan nodded, "Then why didn't you look for your master before?"

Xue Lingfeng glanced at Jiang Yuan indifferently, "Because you haven't appeared before, I don't know where to look for you."
