Chapter 332: The Immortals Conspire and Attack

On March 3, deep in the Changbai Mountains, in one of the two immortals’ residences, an elf with a bull’s head and a human body hurriedly came to report. He knelt in the Sun Viewing Pavilion in front of the cliff waterfall, looking anxious and trembling, and said:

"Ancestor, it's bad!"

"The old guys over in Daxing'anling met with the human from the Trinity Sect in the past few days!"

"Oh?"

A surprised voice sounded. The old man in the pavilion, wearing brocade jade clothes, with a fairy-like appearance and eyes as bright as torches, had a bad premonition in his heart and asked unhappily:
"Why are they meeting?"

"Hey! They are going to rebel! The spy planted in the cave reported to me that they want to...try to break through through the means of that human."

"Now that the party is over, those old guys haven't left yet. They're staying at the old fox's place."

"."

Hearing this, the spirit fairy held the chess piece in his hand for a long time, looking at the chessboard with black and white pieces randomly distributed, thinking:
"So that's what's going on?"

"No wonder the old ghost in Tianchi asked me to be more careful some time ago. It observed the stars at night and found some bad signs. The spirits in the northwest couldn't hold back any longer."

"Ancestor, then... then what do you think?" the elf with a human body and a bull's head asked hurriedly.

Although it respectfully calls the old man "ancestor", the two are actually not of the same race. Its true form is a black buffalo, while the old man in the pavilion is a spiritual immortal who was transformed from a fallen dragon.

What is a fallen dragon?

It is the 'loach' in the common saying, which has the nature, luck and bones of a dragon, but still has some shortcomings. It has the shape, fate and appearance of a dragon, and lives under the mud all its life.

After they practiced, they soared into the sky, made rapid progress, and were ranked at the top of the food chain among the mountain spirits. It was easier for them to break the shackles of the flesh and enjoy a free life than any other race.

Hearing his confidant waiting for instructions, Fallen Dragon Spirit Fairy glanced at him and said in a lukewarm voice: "Old ghost of Tianchi, do you know?"

"Unknown! The old man has been in a bad mood recently. A descendant of his clan was secretly kidnapped by humans, and they are still investigating."

"I dare not tell it about the collusion between those guys in Changbai Mountain and human Qi-refining practitioners, for fear of disturbing the old man and making him unhappy, which would bring me bad luck. Ancestor, you can give me orders as you like. What do you need me to do for you?"

Lingxian weighed the pros and cons for a while, then said in deep thought after a few breaths:

"There are not many humans in the world who can capture the descendants of Liu Laogui. Go to Tianchi and tell it that the man from Sanyi Sect went north and is now with Hu Tianbiao. Even if he is not the murderer, he may know relevant clues. "

"What's more important is to talk to it about the intelligence you know."

"Whatever the reason, I think it is willing to go with me, firstly to meet that human, and secondly to weaken the arrogance of those old beasts and make them face reality as soon as possible."

How can you allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch?
A few years ago, many immortals from the Greater Khingan Range went to the two immortals in the Changbai Mountains to seek guidance on how to transform themselves.

They have long been eyeing these forces and want to take advantage of the situation to bring them under their command. They have plenty of time and are not afraid that they will not agree.

Now, those immortals are looking for humans to ask for the method of advancement. Fallen Dragon Spirit Immortal feels threatened and instantly has the intention to kill them.

Once those immortals who are about to complete their transformation break through the realm, it will become a competitor to the immortals in Changbai Mountain. It will no longer be able to enjoy an absolute monopoly on all the natural treasures and cultivation resources produced in the three mountains within the jurisdiction of the Northeast.

In addition, according to the astrological signs and the immortals entrenched in Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain, there is undoubtedly a trend of competition among many heroes. That is, the group of elves representing the Greater Khingan Range may really be qualified to be on equal footing with them at some point in the future.

The elf with a human body and a bull's head dared not disobey the ancestor's order and nodded humbly in response:
"Okay, don't worry, I'll go right away."

"Ah."

The old man nodded and waved his sleeves to signal it to leave.

Two days later, a dragon-like roar resounded throughout the area of ​​Tianchi Lake for thousands of meters.

After finishing the trivial matters within the tribe, the spiritual fairy arrived at the ancestral land of the Fallen Dragon Spiritual Fairy at the fastest speed, and brought several confidants with him, including the Snake Immortal Liu Kunsheng.

On the evening of March 3, the two sides met to discuss countermeasures on how to prevent those old guys from transforming into immortals.

"As long as we kill that human, or use other excuses to hold him back and send him back to the human world, and forcibly detain him by our side and cut off his connection with the immortals, we will have nothing to worry about. With the talents of Hu Tianbiao and his ilk, they will never be able to touch the human world in this lifetime."

The Fallen Dragon Spirit Immortal did not hide his thoughts.

It relies on its cultivation to surpass the entire human world, and joins forces with the Tianchi Lingxian. No matter how talented the human is, he will have to bow down to their power.

"You think too little of him. He is not that easy to deal with. You must know that seventy years ago he killed three creatures close to the Spiritual Immortal Realm. Seventy years later, even if his cultivation level has stagnated, he should be as strong as the first level of Spiritual Immortal."

Tianchi Lingxian is an old man with skin as white as ice. He wears simple linen clothes and has a cold and sinister face, as if he is always on guard against potential enemies.

"Not even the two of us?"

The Fallen Dragon Spirit Immortal questioned, with a fierce light in his eyes.

"Hard to say."

"Until the situation becomes clear, proceed with caution."

After the voice fell, Liu Kunsheng, who was standing beside him, spit out his tongue and said:

"Grandfather, I have sparred with the disciples of the Trinity Sect. Although the opponent is strong, he is not so strong that we cannot deal with him. Moreover, I think he is much younger and in good health. He may have already caught up with his master's cultivation level."

Immediately, he recounted an episode that happened at the Luotian Conference.

The two spirit immortals looked at each other in bewilderment. They could not directly determine the target's strength range from this, but they probably had more confidence. "Nonsense!"

"You have never seen him, how can you make a conclusion without authorization?"

"That human is an outlier that only appears once every few hundred years. Don't be careless."

"Think of another reason to win him over to our side? Even if things get bad and we're at loggerheads, we can't let him spend more time with those evil beasts."

The rest of the elves present expressed their opinions one after another, and the conspiracy began, and the night passed in silence.

On March 3th, in a mountain stream somewhere in the Spirit Fox Blessed Land, the red barrier and the silver-white enchantment collapsed one after another. As the immortals waited eagerly, two figures came from afar. They were Jiang Mo and the mountain scorpion old man who had come out of seclusion.

“It’s done!!!”

"Wonderful! Such a miracle! If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed it!"

"It's a real method that seems to work."

The others exclaimed in amazement, and were shocked beyond words when they saw the mountain scorpion fairy leaning on a crutch, with the same body shape, appearance, footsteps, and breath as a human.

"Everyone, I've been waiting for a long time. I'm back."

The old man greeted the immortals with a smile on his face, his eyes almost narrowed into a slit. Envious glances were cast at him one after another, making him very happy.

"Old Scorpion, is there anything unusual?"

“No, it’s very comfortable. Almost as natural as when I was in my true form.” The Mountain Scorpion Immortal murmured.

In the past, it maintained a human form that was 70% to 80% similar, which was particularly torturous and tiring.

Because that is a wrong way of evolution. Not only will it consume life energy all the time, it will also make it anxious. The more anxious it is, the more difficult it will be to be flawless.

Now, without any deliberate maintenance, it can breathe, walk, eat and do everything humans want and can do freely.

The immortals gathered around it, observing it carefully, touching its bones and skin from time to time, and praising it:

"It's incredible, it really is a human body!! God help us."

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, you are amazing. I have to admit that you are better than me."

With the success of the first experiment, the eight immortals completely let down their guard. They have already seen the way forward in cultivation and shared their specific feelings with the Mountain Scorpion Immortal. They are all confident that after cultivating into human form, their chances of breaking through and becoming immortals will be greatly increased.

"Daoyou, are you feeling well?"

Hu Tianbiao and the White Snake Immortal asked Jiang Mo with concern.

They knew very well that such a refining process was by no means easy and could not be accomplished without consuming a great deal of energy and effort.

A sturdy brown bear fairy laughed and said:
"As for the second round of refining, don't rush. There's plenty of time anyway. Fellow Daoist, if you're tired, take care of your body first;"

"We will all serve you well and without hesitation. If you want to eat any delicacies from the mountains and the sea, just tell us. We will get it for you regardless of whether we have the conditions or not."

"No problem, I'm fine. Let me take a day off. I need to learn some practical experience."

Jiang Mo planned to spend a day figuring out the structure of the mountain scorpion's body, and which part was the most special and valuable, and worth learning from.

"Let's go! Let's prepare a banquet for you. We can't just treat you to simple food. You are a distinguished guest!!"

Hu Tianbiao laughed loudly, and as the host, he immediately arranged for his clansmen to prepare wine and food.

In the evening, as dusk fades away and the sun is about to fall to the ground, a cool breeze blows across the valley.

The nine immortals, Jiang Mo and Lu Jin enjoyed the delicious food at the same table, talking freely and having a very pleasant chat.

The good times did not last long. When night was falling, a tribesman hurriedly reported the news, and the news he brought made Hu Tianbiao's face darken.

"Grandfather, Taoist Jiang's whereabouts have been leaked!!!"

"The two old antiques from Changbai Mountain, along with six or seven of their trusted followers, are blocking the way outside. They are coming in full force! They claim that Taoist Master Jiang is suspected to be involved with the murderer who kidnapped their relatives?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden monkey who had become an immortal slammed the table and stood up:

"Hey! How could I not know what these two old beasts want to do? They are just making up a false charge and just want to cause trouble."

After dealing with each other for several days, it firmly believed in Jiang Mo's character and would not do such a despicable thing.

Some immortals snorted softly, roughly guessing the other party's intention. Coming at this critical moment, they probably knew that they wanted to transform into immortals and wanted to obstruct them.

"Fellow Daoist, forgive me for asking, but have you ever indirectly cooperated with others to kidnap the elves in Changbai Mountain?"

The White Snake Immortal behaved more rationally and decided to get to the bottom of things first.

"No, I'm always direct."

Jiang Mo remained calm and shook his head to deny: "If I had done anything wrong to them, they wouldn't be alive today."
