Immortal Mystery Sequence: I Establish a Divine Duty for Heaven and Earth

now.

Jiang Tu sat upright in the hall, holding his breath and remaining calm and still on the surface, but his heart was completely tense.

The two faintly emanating terrifying Daoist auras landed outside the courtyard, just one courtyard away from him.

buzzing-

The sequence of gold tactical movements continued to tremble, its warning was all too clear, like a butcher's knife hanging over one's neck, about to fall at any moment!

When disaster strikes, life hangs by a thread; there is no greater calamity than this.

"breathe--"

He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

Jin Ce was able to conceal his identity to a certain extent, making it impossible for outsiders to see through his hidden secrets or his disguise...

This has been confirmed before. In the past, Xiaopei County had a Taoist priest stationed there to guard the area, and the entire Jiangzhou was under the jurisdiction of the Lingjiang Temple Taoist sect, with many great masters and cultivators stationed there to perceive the surrounding area.

During the strange calamity in Dajiang County, many immortals flew over Xiaopei County on their swords, but none of them noticed him.

Inside Yingfeng City, neither of these two highly skilled Daoist experts discovered that Rong Yidao was an imposter made from straw, which in itself proved that Jin Ce's concealment was reliable enough... But if it was so reliable, why did the two great cultivators suddenly arrive? Could it be that he inadvertently exposed his whereabouts?

Or perhaps these two great cultivators, whose cultivation levels are among the highest in the Daoist sect and far surpass those of ordinary people, are able to see through his disguise.

We must not panic! We absolutely must not panic!

Before the other party makes it clear that they have discovered his secret and want to take his life, you must remain calm, pretend that you know nothing and have not discovered anything, and just deal with whatever they say!

He calmed his mind and completely concealed his agricultural aura, not revealing a trace of it to the outside world.

……

……

Outside Xiaopei County.

Qing Shuzi and Dong Daozi walked side by side, looking around with golden light in their eyes, carefully examining the details, but they did not see anything unusual or any aura of the agricultural path.

At this time.

From afar, Qing Shuzi saw the fertile fields and courtyards inside and outside the Jiang residence, a scene of peace and tranquility. He stroked his beard and pondered.

"Brother Dao... the fleeting aura of the agricultural path I glimpsed just now seems to have appeared nearby! Brother Dao, would you mind coming with me into that house to take a look?"

"Very well, let's just take a leisurely stroll here. However, the matter of the forbidden area of ​​Jiaosha is the most important, so let's not delay any longer."

"I know what's going on."

The two appeared outside the courtyard in a flash, revealing their figures. They exuded an air of otherworldly elegance, with light blue Taoist robes draped over their bodies.

bang bang bang-

A knocking sound came at the door.

The servant ran to open the door and was startled to see two white-haired, youthful-looking Taoist priests standing outside. He quickly addressed them as "Taoist Masters," and someone then ran in to announce their arrival.

Not to mention Jiangzhou, even in the entire ten states of the Eastern Daoist sect, any family would welcome a Daoist disciple with great respect and hospitality, which speaks volumes about their status.

In the Taoist world, this Taoist robe is the most important and noble proof of identity!

Tatata!

Jiang Tu immediately hurried out to greet them, bowing deeply from afar, his face filled with surprise and trepidation: "You two Daoist masters have graced us with your presence! I have never had the honor of welcoming you properly, please forgive me! I beg your forgiveness!"

He led the two into the courtyard.

Dong Daozi flicked his whisk with his fingers, his warm smile like a gentle breeze: "I am Dong Shan, and this is my junior brother Qingjiao. We are Daoists from Lingjiang Temple who travel around investigating the people's conditions, specifically seeking out those with innate talent to join our Daoist sect. We just happened to pass by your esteemed place and decided to pay you a visit."

Uncle Qing remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he rolled his eyes.

Green pepper?

Brother Dao, your alias is far too casual... You're terrible at naming things!

You did this on purpose, didn't you?

Jiang Tu didn't believe a word of it, but his enthusiasm was undeniable, and he took the initiative to introduce himself...

"Gentlemen, please allow me to explain. Our place is called Xiaopei County. We rarely see any people with the potential to become Daoists. The last person to be accepted into the Daoist sect was a member of the Wang family several decades ago. Hmm, I can't recall their name for the moment..."

"My name is Jiang Tu, and I dream of becoming a great cultivator who enters the Dao! Unfortunately, I lack the destiny and innate talent for it... Alas, let alone the divine favor of the Daoist path, even the innate wisdom of the agricultural path is beyond my comprehension!"

After saying this, he immediately ordered his servants to prepare a banquet and respectfully asked the two Taoist priests if they had any dietary restrictions.

"Those who practice Taoist cultivation abstain from grains and do not crave gluttony are content with vegetarian meals and need not consume meat or alcohol... We apologize for the inconvenience."

"Yes, yes, you're too kind, Daoist! I'll make the arrangements right away."

After a while.

Zhou Ning'e personally cooked several plates of refreshing vegetarian dishes, which were delicious, colorful, and flavorful.

Dongdaozi and his companion indeed disliked meat and were not fond of food; they stopped after taking a few bites.

Jiang Tu diligently urged the two Taoist priests to eat, which made them feel respected and they always smiled at him. After carefully observing Jiang Tu, they thought he was just an ordinary farmer. He was fifty years old and looked somewhat old, but they didn't see anything unusual about him.

Under the cover of Jin Cetian's secrets, they didn't even see through Jiang Tu's deliberate act of pretending to be old.

After the banquet, the three of them took their seats in the hall.

Jiang Tu tentatively said, "Since you two Daoist masters have come to select those with innate talent, I will summon all the children in my household and the surrounding village for you to choose from. Unfortunately, my wife, son, and I are all without innate talent; our fortune is too shallow..."

"No need for such trouble. I will discern those with the necessary qualities myself. Why bother inviting them into my residence?"

Jiang Tu smiled and agreed, but he couldn't hold back his excitement inside.

No way, you two are pretending to choose people, but you're actually picking people! If you're not going to choose, then just leave!

At this moment, he noticed the person next to Dong Daozi... This Green Pepper Taoist hadn't said much since entering the hall, his eyes were lowered and his attention was on his feet, occasionally stomping lightly, as if he had noticed something.

Jiang Tu's heart skipped a beat.

Underground farmland!

His superior seed field was hidden three zhang deep beneath his feet. Over the years, it had grown to a considerable size. Although Jin Ce could conceal himself, the superior crops underground possessed a kind of spirituality and could not escape the eyes of the two.

After a brief moment of thought, he calmed down. Although his seeds were good, most of them were not rare, with only one or two being somewhat unusual.

Nowadays, agriculture is thriving and spreading far and wide. All kinds of high-quality seeds are readily available. As long as you are willing to pay, you can buy seeds. Jiang Tu is, after all, one of the well-known and prominent families in Xiaopei County. It is not surprising that he can afford high-quality seeds.

As for the truly essential pills condensed through the alchemy technique, he had used most of them over the years, and those around him had consumed most of them. He carried the remaining pills close to his body, within the protection range of the Golden Strategy, so there was no need to worry.

Sure enough, Uncle Qing lowered his head and examined the area for a moment before finally looking away with a faint smile.

"You are indeed a cautious person, knowing the principle of not flaunting wealth. I have traveled far and wide, and rarely have I seen crops growing underground."

Jiang Tu didn't try to hide anything, and said somewhat shyly, "Master Daoist, your eyesight is excellent, and nothing can be hidden from you! I have indeed cultivated some fertile land underground, which is the result of many years of hard work... If Master Daoist takes a liking to it, I am willing to offer it all as a tribute! I hope you two masters will not refuse!"

Uncle Qing waved his hand and sneered, "Who do you take me for? Under the rule of the Daoist sect, how can there be such plunder and robbery? Besides, while good crops may be precious in the eyes of ordinary people, they are nothing but fleeting clouds to us."

Jiang Tu repeatedly said, "It was my fault for being so rude, please forgive me, Daoist!"

You're such a show-off!

Okay, okay, I know your Dao Pill is precious, alright? Those are all refined with human lives, who can be more precious than yours?

Suddenly, a faint glimmer of inspiration flashed through my mind.

The three people in the room simultaneously froze!

A faint green light flashed across the ground beneath their feet, swift as a dragon in flight and as fast as a startled swan, rapidly approaching the Jiang residence...

Insect Spirit!

But the moment the insect spirit swiftly entered the Jiang residence, it did not slow down at all, continuing to rush forward without any hindrance or pause, flying rapidly towards the southeast.

Boom boom boom!

Jiang Tu's heart beat a little faster, but his face remained expressionless.

so close!

So close!

If these two were to discover that he had intercepted all the insect spirits' messages midway, then they would be in big trouble.

Fortunately, after so many years, he already knew that as long as he actively and completely contained the aura of the Golden Strategy deep in his consciousness, he could block the attraction of all earth spirits in the outside world. Well... not to mention earth spirits, he couldn't even find the intelligent grass people.

At this critical moment, the use of restrained energy narrowly prevented the insect spirit from being exposed.

Dongdaozi watched the green light disappear, his expression indifferent.

Insect spirits were commonplace in Jiangzhou, and they were born in various places along agricultural routes. He knew that if the communication was cut off, he would not be able to find out the information, and he was too lazy to pursue a passing insect spirit.

There was a brief silence in the hall.

Dong Daozi transmitted his voice secretly, urging, "Junior brother, what have you discovered? If you haven't found anything, you should leave!"

Instead of answering, Uncle Qing asked, "Brother Jiang, besides the servants and guards, are there any other people in your house? Why don't you call them out as well, so that I may see if they have any affinity with my Daoist sect?"

Jiang Tu felt a sudden alarm bell ring in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Aside from the servants and guards, it's just my wife and son."

"It's a pity my son was unwell a few days ago and went to Yingfeng City to seek medicine and medical treatment. He hasn't returned yet. He's somewhat weak and doesn't seem to have the aptitude for medicine. It's a shame he missed the chance to meet you two Daoists this time. Otherwise, I would really like to introduce you to them. It's just that his fortune isn't good enough..."

"As for my wife, a woman should not show her face in public, but since you have invited her, I think it is not impossible. Shirley, quickly find your wife."

"Yes, sir!"

Sherry responded and left, and the hall fell silent once more.

Jiang Tu remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was suspicious.

Why did Qingjiao Daoren specifically request to see Ning'e?

This powerful figure from the sect shouldn't be lustful. With a lifespan of several hundred years and ruling over a region, what woman in the world couldn't he find? He shouldn't be like Rong Yidao.

Could it be that... Jin Ce could conceal his aura, but he probably couldn't conceal Ning E's? Over the years, she had worked with him to manage the underground fields and study medicinal herbs and elixirs, and she had also triggered signs of entering the Dao, only missing the breakthrough by a hair's breadth.

The Taoist master has keen eyesight; perhaps he has sensed something... The crux of the matter lies here?!

Swish.

The curtain was lifted, and Zhou Ning'e walked in.

She was dressed in simple clothes, with no makeup, her hair neatly tied up, and a charming young woman's demeanor in her eyes. She walked gracefully, gave the two men a graceful bow and addressed them as "Master," and then obediently sat down beside Jiang Tu.

With lowered eyes and downcast gaze, he remained silent, his posture proper and his demeanor composed.

This moment.

Dong Daozi and Qing Shuzi both looked at Zhou Ning'e, their eyes immediately fixing on each other!

Found her!
