Plants vs. Cultivation.

Chapter 220 Opportunities and Traps

The border area between good and evil.

As the news of the appearance of the cave of the ancient powerful spread, many cultivators who wanted to hunt for treasures gathered there. However, the time has not yet come when the restrictions of the cave are at their weakest. In addition, the cave is located in the sphere of influence of the Demon Sect. Therefore, the cultivators on the righteous side are currently only active on the border and have not entered the Demon Sect's territory.

Everyone was waiting, waiting for the cave's restrictions to weaken before taking action. Although this action was very risky, whether it was a spiritual weapon or a Condensing Infant Pill, the temptation was too great.

Therefore, even though there are risks, there are still many Jindan cultivators who are eager to break through and want to give it a try.

Especially for those geniuses on the genius list, their own combat power is stronger than that of the cultivators of the same level. With the strength and confidence, they are even more eager to get more opportunities.

So far, the cave has not attracted the arrival of Yuanying Zhenjun. After all, Ningying Pill is useless to Yuanying Zhenjun. Although spiritual weapons are the configuration of Yuanying Zhenjun, unless it is a newly promoted Yuanying, a Yuanying Zhenjun can always cultivate a spiritual weapon by spending more years.

This kind of spiritual weapon that one cultivates by oneself is obviously more suitable for oneself than the finished spiritual weapon that is directly obtained. Unless it is a particularly powerful spiritual weapon, it is difficult for Yuanying Zhenjun to be tempted.

Although Yuanying Zhenjun did not come, it does not mean that he did not pay attention. What if there is a treasure in that cave that even Yuanying Zhenjun desires?

Time passed day by day, and soon it reached the moment when the restrictions of the cave were at their weakest. Immediately, the cultivators on the righteous side quickly rushed towards the cave.

The cultivators from the Demon Sect who also learned the news also rushed over quickly.

In an instant, the two groups of people attacked each other, and soon the righteous side gained the upper hand, because there were many geniuses on the genius list on the righteous side. They had strong combat power and became a sharp knife for the righteous side to pierce the cultivators of the Demon Sect.

On the other hand, the Demon Sect does not have a single member on the Prodigy List. Most of them are independent cultivators, and their combat power is naturally far inferior to that of the righteous side.

"Something's wrong!"

When some cultivators saw this scene, some of them immediately felt something was wrong. That cave had so many treasures, why didn't the Demon Sect have even a genius? You have to know that the competition pressure among the Demon Sect disciples is even greater than that on the righteous side, and their desire for opportunities and treasures is far greater than that of the righteous side.

"How dare you! How can you enter my Demon Sect's territory at will?" Just as a cultivator realized something was wrong and was about to retreat, a cold snort sounded.

Afterwards, a powerful aura of the Nascent Soul Demon Lord burst out, and the next moment, the terrifying demonic energy swept through, directly killing all the righteous cultivators who entered the Demon Sect’s territory, including more than a dozen geniuses on the Prodigy List.

"stop!"

The moment the Demon Sect's Yuanying Demon Lord made his move, the Yuanying True Lord on the righteous side also realized something was wrong and rushed over quickly, wanting to rescue him.

However, despite his unintentional actions, Yuanying Zhenjun on the righteous side was still one step late.

"you……"

The True Lord Yuanying of the Righteous Path pointed at the Demon Lord of the Demon Sect and was extremely angry. It was really shameless for him to bully the weak.

"What about me? They broke into the territory of my Demon Sect, shouldn't they be killed?" said the Demon Lord indifferently.

"very good!"

The righteous Yuanying Zhenjun was so angry that he held back his anger. Indeed, if he trespassed into the other party's territory without permission and was killed, he would have to accept his fate, unless a war broke out between the righteous and evil sides.

But if a war really wants to break out, there is no need to engage in a war of geniuses, just fight it directly.

The righteous sect, which suffered a great loss, soon found a way to retaliate, which was to conduct a large-scale search, because many geniuses of the demon sect had infiltrated the righteous forces and were collecting demonic materials.

Although the large-scale exploration cost a lot, we cannot just swallow this humiliation. Moreover, we lost more than ten geniuses at once. When the battle between geniuses comes, the righteous side will definitely be at a disadvantage.

After a large-scale search by the righteous side, seven or eight members of the Demon Sect's Prodigy List were found. Although their number was small, the Demon Sect's prodigies who had the courage to sneak into the righteous territory were all ranked high.

Therefore, the losses on the Demon Sect's side were also not small.

The battle of geniuses hasn't even begun yet, and 10% of the geniuses on the list have been reduced. This makes both the good and the evil realize the seriousness of the situation.

In the end, both the good and evil sides had to sit down again to renegotiate. In order to prevent the battle of geniuses from being aborted, both sides unanimously decided to replace the lost players.

As for the list, they were all selected by themselves, but there were two restrictions: one was that the cultivation level could not exceed the Jindan realm, and the other was that the age could not exceed 100 years old.

Once this supplementary rule comes out, it is obvious that the level of this battle between geniuses will be raised, and both sides should send out their true disciples to fight.

Before, it was the enemy who selected the candidates and we had no right to choose. This time, we can choose the candidates ourselves. So in order to ensure victory in this battle of geniuses, sending out true disciples is the safest way.

However, if both sides sent their true disciples, and then they fought against each other, losing any one of them would make all parties feel sad. But if they didn't send their true disciples and lost the Tianjiao battle, they would lose all their face.

This battle of geniuses has been promoted for so long that the news has already spread. By then, not only the Tianyuan Realm, but also other immortal cultivation realms will probably send people to watch the battle. If they lose, then the shame will be passed on to other immortal cultivation realms.

It is a difficult decision whether to ensure the safety of the true teachings or to save face.

"It's all the Yinshi Sect's fault, otherwise, there wouldn't be so many problems!" A righteous Yuanying Zhenjun said angrily. If the Yinshi Sect hadn't used some powerful cave to attract their own Tianjiao to go there, and finally killed them, this wouldn't have happened.

"The Yinshi Sect is naturally unwilling to accept the death of a true disciple." At this time, a Yuanying Zhenjun spoke up. The Demon Sect's move was so inexplicable that the righteous side naturally sent people to investigate while accusing them. Later, they learned that a true disciple of the Yinshi Sect died in the righteous territory.

"Then we should win this time!"

Upon learning that the Yinshi Sect's true disciple had fallen, the righteous side immediately felt that they had made a profit. Although the righteous side had lost more than ten geniuses this time, these were not the true disciples of the top sects.

The true disciples of those top sects are the true geniuses among geniuses, and the loss of one of them is enough to make their sect feel extremely painful.

“By the way, who did it? Why didn’t they notify us in advance so that we could be prepared?” asked a Yuanying Zhenjun.

Upon hearing this, all the Yuanying Zhenjun present looked at each other, and no one responded.

"Wasn't it you who did it?"

Seeing no one responding, the Grand Elder of Taiqing Sect who was in charge of the negotiations with the Demon Sect spoke.

"That should be the work of some reclusive Yuanying Zhenjun." In the world of immortal cultivation, apart from the Yuanying Zhenjun of the sects, there are also some solitary Yuanying Zhenjun. They have no sect or school, and only practice in their hearts. Such people have a firm heart for humanity, and most of them have strong cultivation.

Of course, although a lone ranger can focus all his energy on cultivation, it is better to fight alone than to have the support of a sect. Therefore, the truly top-notch masters in the world of cultivation are basically in those top sects.

"Could he have been killed by other Jindan cultivators?" At this time, a Yuanying Zhenjun spoke up. After all, this was also a possibility.

"Whose true disciple has gone out during this period?" Upon hearing this, a Yuanying Zhenjun asked. The only ones who can kill the true disciple of the Yinshi Sect are the true disciples of the three top sects, and they must be ranked at the top.

Representatives from the three major sects, Taiqing Sect, Yin Yang Sword Sect, and Shennong Valley, all shook their heads.

"Lord Tianhen Sword, where is your disciple?"

Suddenly, a Yuanying Zhenjun turned his gaze to Xuan Tianhen in the corner. As the only Yuanying in Dayan Sword Sect, Xuan Tianhen naturally attended this meeting.

Of course, he was only here to make up the numbers. He would only be used if there was a fight. Otherwise, he would be a invisible person. As for negotiations, Xuan Tianhen was not interested at all. He was only interested in killing people from the Demon Sect.

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately attracted the interest of many Yuanying Zhenjun. If we were to talk about the outlier on the list of geniuses recently, it would be Lin Wu from Dayan Sword Sect.

This is also the only genius who is not from the three top sects but can rank among the top ten.

Many people speculate that this Lin Wu has strength that is not inferior to the true disciples of the top sects. No, there is no need to speculate. Lin Wu has condensed the Immortal Golden Elixir, which means he has the strength of a true disciple of the top sect. Moreover, this is not an ordinary true disciple.

If it were him, with the sword cultivator's amazing killing power, it would be absolutely possible for him to kill the true disciple of the Yinshi Sect in a surprise attack.

"I'm in retreat."

Xuan Tianhen said without even raising his head.

Based on his understanding of Gu Mo, he didn't need to launch a surprise attack against the Yinshi Sect's true disciple. He could just kill him head-on.

Of course, this matter was indeed not done by his disciple, and Xuan Tianhen did not want to continue to bring hatred to Gu Mula. His disciple was already a person who must be killed by the Demon Sect.

Last time, the Demon Sect directly dispatched the Nascent Soul Demon Lord to take action. If it weren't for the fact that the True Lord Nascent Soul happened to pass by and stopped the Demon Lord, the consequences would have been disastrous.

If we agree to kill the Yinshi Sect's true disciple now, the Yinshi Sect will be furious.

"That should be the work of a hidden Nascent Soul." In the end, everyone characterized the matter in this way. No matter whether others believed it or not, that was the explanation.

Shennong Valley.

"Sure enough, a sudden opportunity could also be a trap." Gu Mo looked at the latest intelligence, which contained detailed information about the incident in the powerful cave.

When Gu Mo learned that the opportunity in the cave was a trap set by the Yinshi Sect, he couldn't help but secretly rejoice. Of course, if Gu Mo really went there, facing the attack of the Yuanying Demon Lord, he should be able to escape, but then he would need to expose a lot of his cards.

Gu Mo still prefers to keep a low profile, so that even if someone wants to plot against him, they won't send too strong a force, and Gu Mo can deal with it easily.

As for the enemies he wanted to deal with, Gu Mo would let the sword cultivator incarnation take action, and all the hatred would be directed towards the sword cultivator incarnation. Of course, if there was any force, he would let the incarnation act.

Therefore, it is very important to ensure the combat effectiveness of the incarnation. After all, if you are not strong enough, you will be struck by lightning if you pretend to be cool.

"Little flower!"

Gu Mo took out a petal and touched it gently with his spiritual sense. The next moment, a small flower the size of a palm appeared. "Xiao Mo, what do you want from me?"

"I have a courier for you to deliver."

Gu Mo handed a storage bag to Xiaohua, which contained an ice-type pseudo-spiritual flying sword that had already been given spiritual power, as well as a new batch of third-grade top-quality sword heart bamboo.

By observing the 4th-grade Sword Heart Bamboo, Ding Shiyan made new improvements to the Sword Heart Bamboo she cultivated. Now the quality of the latest batch of Sword Heart Bamboo has reached the top 3rd-grade.

Of course, the reason why Ding Shiyan was able to cultivate a 3rd-grade top-quality Sword Heart Bamboo so quickly was not only because of the insights she gained from observing the 4th-grade Sword Heart Bamboo, but also because of the support of the solar essence provided by Gu Mo.

With a piece of sunlight glass flower as a cover, all the sun essence that Gu Mo took out could be pushed upwards.

As long as Master Qi Chunde, Ding Shiyan and Elder Liu Shulan of the alchemy school did not reconcile the accounts together, they would never realize that the amount of solar essence Gu Mo took out had already exceeded the upper limit of the Sunlight Glazed Flower Field by many times.

"okay!"

When Xiaohua learned that it was a courier job, she seemed very happy, because this was the job that could get delicious food the fastest. She could get delicious food with just one trip. Normally, she needed to take good care of the Sunlight Glazed Flower and harvest the power of the sun in order to get paid.

Xiaohua took the storage bag and performed Wood Release and disappeared in an instant.

Dayan Sword Sect.

When the original body summoned Xiaohua, Gu Mo's incarnation was already waiting. This surprised Xiaohua very much. She always felt that Xiaolin was very mysterious and could predict her arrival every time.

“Please give good reviews.”

Putting down the storage bag, Xiaohua gave a warning and disappeared again. A long time ago, Gu Mo and Xiaohua agreed that if she could get good reviews, he would give her extra rewards.

Therefore, every time after delivering something, Xiaohua would remind the target that in order to get good reviews, if the target is in danger, Xiaohua would not mind helping out.

This is also the origin of Gu Mo's setting of good reviews, so that Xiaohua can take action without being left behind, and the target of this help is not limited to the incarnation, anyone can do it. As long as Gu Mo asks Xiaohua to deliver the express to the other party, Xiaohua will naturally take action in order to get good reviews.

Although it has only been a short time since Xiaohua was promoted to the 4th level demon king, her strength has grown extremely rapidly. This is all thanks to the nourishment of Gu Mo's solar essence.

The effect of the sun's essence on spiritual plants far exceeds that on spiritual pets. Little Carp is also often fed by Gu Mo, but it has not yet become a 4th-level demon king and is stuck at the peak of 3rd level.

In order for Xiaoli to break through, Gu Mo estimated that he would have to prepare a lot of level 4 solar essence for it. However, the level 4 solar essence was not enough for Gu Mo himself, so this matter could only be put aside for the time being.

Wait until Gu Mo has sufficient 4th-level solar essence, and then help Xiaoli break through.

Gu Mo was thinking about Xiaoli's breakthrough when suddenly, a powerful aura rose from not far away. Gu Mo had felt this kind of energy once before from Xiaohua.

Of course, the aura this time is completely different from Xiaohua's, but the feeling of wanting to break through is the same. After all, the one who is going to break through this time is not a spiritual plant demon king like Xiaohua, but a human cultivator.

"Master is about to break through!"

When Gu Mo arrived at the source of the aura, he found that it was Qi Chunde's courtyard.
