A technologically powerful nation: The national treasure is actually myself.

At the same time, a gentle voice entered the cave through the barrier:

"Fellow Daoist Lin, are you there?"

Lin Yang immediately recognized the person as Tang Jing, the resident of the cave across the street, who was an alchemist.

"Master Tang, is something the matter?" Lin Yang walked out of the cave, his brows furrowed slightly.

He had only met Tang Jing a few times and they were not very familiar with each other. He only knew that Tang Jing was an alchemist and they did not have any prior relationship.

Tang Jing's sudden visit puzzled him.

"Hehe, Fellow Daoist Lin, I apologize for bothering you, but I would like to buy some magic arrays from you. Is that alright?" Tang Jing said with a smile, stating his purpose directly.

"Buy a magic array?" Lin Yang looked at Tang Jing.

He didn't hide the fact that he was a magic array master, so it's normal for his neighbor across the hall to know.

It is also very common for unaffiliated cultivators to privately trade various finished products of their skills.

"Fellow Daoist Tang, please come in." Immediately, Lin Yang invited Tang Jing into the cave. "May I ask how many magic arrays Fellow Daoist Tang wishes to purchase?"

Tang Jing rubbed his hands together: "I want to buy two killing formations and one trapping formation. I prefer high-quality ones, and I can pay more."

“Oh…okay.” Lin Yang nodded, “but it will take some time, as I don’t have a ready-made magic array that meets your requirements.”

"Understood, thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Lin." Tang Jing nodded repeatedly.

It's normal to not have stock on hand when there's a sudden demand.

He himself is an alchemist, and sometimes when others want to buy his alchemy, he needs to refine it on the spot.

After agreeing on the price, Tang Jing paid a 20% reservation fee and then discussed some details of the magic array.

During the conversation, Tang Jing said, "The Moon Shadow Sect and the Heavenly Kun Sect are about to start fighting again."

"What?" Lin Yang looked up at Tang Jing.

Tang Jing was unaware that he was a former disciple of the Moon Shadow Sect, and the fact that he was mentioned now was mostly out of gossip about the long-standing feud between the two sects.

Tang Jing chuckled and said:
"Ten thousand years ago, two disciples of the Tiankun Sect went missing in Mirror Lake. It wasn't a big deal originally."

"But one of the missing people had an older brother who had performed great service for an elder over the past ten thousand years and was highly regarded by that elder."

Driven by this older brother, the Tiankun Sect reopened the investigation into the cause of death of the two men.

"Because Mirror Lake originally belonged to the territory of the Moon Shadow Sect, the Heavenly Kun Sect openly used the pretext of investigating the disappearance of its disciples to occupy some important places of the Moon Shadow Sect."

"This is just the beginning. It's estimated that it won't be long before the two factions clash again."

Lin Yang was slightly taken aback.

The reason why Tiankun Sect suddenly reopened the investigation into the cause of Lan Gang and Zi Hong's deaths was actually this?

He looked at Tang Jing with some surprise.

When Shi Jie sent him the message earlier, he was still wondering why the investigation had been restarted after such a long interval.

Unexpectedly, I now learn the reason behind it from Tang Jing.

He couldn't help but glance at Tang Jing a couple more times; this guy's information network is really impressive!

But he didn't think much about it.

It's normal for Tang Jing, as an alchemist, to have some connections.

The reason he was relatively isolated from the news was because he didn't communicate much with outsiders.

"Fellow Daoist Tang, do you know the name of the missing person's brother?" Lin Yang asked calmly.

"I think his name is Lan Zhi," Tang Jing replied without hesitation.

"Lan Zhi?"

Lin Yang whispered, realizing that this person was Lan Gang's brother.

He then understood why the purplish-red female cultivator was keeping Lan Gang, who had an ordinary appearance and seemed unremarkable.

Most likely it's because the other person has an older brother.

Immediately, he casually remarked, "This Lan Zhi is quite influential; he managed to persuade the elders to make the Tiankun Sect go to such great lengths to stand up for his brother."

Upon hearing this, Tang Jing immediately shook his head and said, "This is only one reason. The other reason is definitely that Tiankun Sect wants to take this opportunity to openly plunder more territory from Yueying Sect. I estimate that the latter is the main reason why Tiankun Sect has gone to such great lengths this time."

Lin Yang nodded slightly, agreeing with Tang Jing's statement.

An ordinary disciple's power is limited. No matter how much importance they receive, it's not enough for the Tiankun Sect to mobilize the entire sect's resources to investigate.

All I can say is that this is a good opportunity.

As for why the Tiankun Sect didn't take advantage of this opportunity ten thousand years ago, that remains unknown.

After chatting for a while, mainly Lin Yang inquired about Lan Zhi's situation, Tang Jing said goodbye and left.

Lin Yang sat in the courtyard of the cave dwelling, frowning.

Although Tiankun Sect may not be genuinely investigating the cause of Lan Gang and his companion's deaths, or truly wanting to find the murderer, they may simply be seeking a legitimate reason to enter Yueying Sect's territory.

But this is still very disadvantageous for him.

Others in the Tiankun Sect might not care much about who the real murderer is, but Lan Gang's brother Lan Zhi's lineage will definitely take it seriously.

This is not good news for him.

He once made a move when dealing with the black-robed man who tried to ambush them; his power was enough to threaten those at the eighth or ninth level of the Dao realm.

The man in black robes had also seen his face and that of Shi Jie and the others.

Moreover, only four of them survived from their batch.

With just a little effort, Tiankun Sect could find out his strength, or from the injured man in black robes.

Then it would be very easy to pinpoint him.

Once the target is him, regardless of whether there is evidence or not, Lan Zhi will probably not let him go.

This is very dangerous.

Because Lan Zhi possesses the strength of the Dao Fire Realm!

Tang Jing doesn't know Lan Zhi's exact cultivation level, but he estimates that Lan Zhi is at least in the mid-stage of the Dao Fire Realm.

This is a huge threat.

Moreover, Lan Zhi has an elder at the Nirvana Realm behind him.

Lin Yang was having a headache. He hadn't expected that killing those two would cause such a big problem.

Of course, I was just a little speechless, but I didn't regret my actions at the time.

After all, if he hadn't taken the initiative, he would have been the one to die after being discovered.

"Never mind that for now. We'll deal with whatever comes our way. Let's go and refine the magic array that Tang Jing needs first."

After thinking for a moment, Lin Yang stopped dwelling on it.

The Tiankun Sect has just begun its investigation, and its main objective is to target the Moon Shadow Sect's territory.

It will take some time to get to him.

He could sell more magic arrays beforehand to accumulate some Yuan Sha. If all else fails, he could rent a place in the central area of ​​the stronghold, where the security is relatively high, or even go to Bai Chi City.

……

As time passed, Lin Yang spent some time refining the magic array that Tang Jing needed and then sent it to Tang Jing.

After receiving the remaining balance, they immediately bought more raw materials for refining magic arrays.

after a while.

It's time to come.

On this day, the restrictions on Lin Yang's residence were triggered again.

Lin Yang looked out and saw two guys dressed in the robes of Tiankun Sect disciples outside the door.

"They actually found me here with such precision..."

Lin Yang's eyes flickered, and without any intention of pretending not to be there, he walked out directly to face the two of them and said:

"What brings you two here?" (End of Chapter)
