The fear of cultivating immortals comes from insufficient firepower

In the following period, Li Xiaofan's daily practice was very fulfilling.

Spend several hours during the day practicing the Zixia Sunset Sutra, refining the medicinal power of the remaining seven-color lotus seeds in the body.

Then he spent a few hours studying and understanding the rune secrets left by Ruan Lingxiang.

As for the evening, it was the time for drawing talismans and practicing divine arts.

In this way, two months passed in the blink of an eye.

After two months of continuous practice, Li Xiaofan's cultivation has reached the peak of the middle stage of foundation building, and he can try to break through to the late stage of foundation building at any time.

It was also during this period that some minor things happened in Zixia Sect.

First of all, it was naturally the matter of Old Man Hu's recovery that was deliberately made public by the sect leader.

And many disciples who didn't know the inside story were also shocked when they heard that Old Man Hu was once a Yuanying monk.

The sect leader even originally planned to ask Old Man Hu to take up the position of great elder again and manage the sect's affairs.

But he was rejected by Old Man Hu.

Then, there is the celebration of the new peak master of Baijian Peak.

In fact, the new peak leader had already taken office a few months ago.

However, due to the absence of Old Man Hu, the master of Lingfu Peak, the elder group was unable to raise enough people.

That's why the sect leader kept delaying until Old Man Hu came back before starting the celebration.

As for this new peak leader, Li Xiaofan had never seen him before.

I only know that the other person's name is Duanmu Ren, and he is a middle-aged man who looks very easy-going.

Moreover, the other party's surname is the same as that of the sect leader, which means he may not necessarily be from the same family as the sect leader.

Other than those two things, it’s just smaller things.

For example, Zhao Caidi and the poker-faced senior brother made their relationship public, and this "bad guy and girl" finally began to show off their affection in front of Li Xiaofan without any scruples.

Also, Li Xiaofan learned some things from some disciples.

For example, not long after Li Xiaofan left the sect last time, Chen Jianzhai sent someone to bring his son and daughter.

That is, Chen Tiangou and Chen Xiaoshan, who were deposed by Li Xiaofan, were sent away from the Zixia Sect.

The external theory is that the two were unwilling to stay in the sect, so they were sent back to their hometown.

Although Li Xiaofan felt a little strange about this matter, he didn't pay too much attention to it.

After all, I have a lot to do, so how can I have time to pay attention to two useless people?

For example, at this moment, Li Xiaofan and Old Man Hu were staying in the secret room, staring at each other.

Just now, Old Man Hu came rushing over and told Li Xiaofan some of the things he promised Old Man Yun.

But seeing that Li Xiaofan didn't want to get involved in these things, Old Man Hu could only start playing the emotional card.

"Xiao Fan, look at it. Ever since you worshiped at Lingfu Peak, I have been treating you with all my heart and soul. I think of you with all the good things I can think of."

"I'll give you the best paper, ink, pen and inkstone, and I'll give you all the rune templates I studied. Do you want to see me break my promise and be ridiculed by Old Man Yun?"

"Besides, you committed such a big crime in Qinglian Sect. First you blew up someone else's mountain, and then you crippled someone else's disciples."

"Think about it, if it wasn't for my sake, could Old Man Yun have exposed it so easily?"

"and also....."

Seeing Old Man Hu chattering incessantly, as if he was chanting sutras like a monk from the Tang Dynasty, Li Xiaofan was really scared.

"Okay, okay, what exactly is going on, please tell me, Peak Master!"

Seeing that Li Xiaofan finally agreed, Old Man Hu smiled proudly in his heart.

He said in his heart: "Young man, you are too young to fight with me!"

However, his face was serious.

"Okay, since you agreed, Xiaofan, I won't hide anything from you."

"In the past few hundred years, although I and Old Man Yun have long guessed that Lingxiang has died, we still hold on to hope even if we don't see the body."

"But this time, that hope was ultimately dashed."

"And the cause of this incident, to put it bluntly, is the Ten Thousand Demons Sect."

"This time, Old Man Yun did not hesitate to spend the precious resources of the Qinglian Sect to heal my wounds, except that we did have a good relationship back then."

"Old Man Yun also put forward several conditions. The first is to unite with me and even the Zixia Sect to launch a sect war against the Ten Thousand Demons Sect in order to avenge the great revenge committed four hundred years ago."

"At the same time, it is also to avenge the dead Reika!"

Li Xiaofan was shocked when he heard this.

No wonder, no wonder Yun Zhongyan did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to help Old Man Hu. It turned out that there was such a huge plan behind it.

Starting a sect war is no joke.

A bad sect, such as the Zixia Sect and the Qinglian Sect, is likely to suffer heavy losses, leading to the sect's decline.

Didn’t you see that the Qinglian Sect has such a treasure as the Seven Color Lotus, but it still took hundreds of years to recover?

Thinking of this, Li Xiaofan's expression condensed.

"Peak Master, this matter is too big, but I am just a small foundation-building monk, how can I help?"

Hearing this, Old Man Hu looked at Li Xiaofan solemnly.

"Xiao Fan, attacking the Ten Thousand Demons Sect is no small matter. Even if the strength of our two sects is combined, we may not be [-]% sure."

"But if you know yourself and your enemy, you will be victorious in every battle."

"So we need a capable disciple to sneak into the Ten Thousand Demons Sect and find out the situation of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect for us, including the arrangement of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect's formations and even the number of strong men."

Upon hearing this, Li Xiaofan almost jumped up.

"No way! Peak Master, you want me to be an undercover agent. I think you are crazy. I won't go."

As soon as he understood what Old Man Hu meant, Li Xiaofan immediately thought of countless scenes from Hong Kong movies.

Think about it, among those undercover agents, which one will end well in the end?

The better ones, three years after another, and three years after another.

After working as undercover agents for more than ten years, everyone is torn between duty and brotherhood, wondering whether they are black or white, whether they are human or ghost.

And what about the unlucky ones? After finally sneaking in, he was either picked out and beaten to death, or he was caught and tortured to extract a confession.

What's even worse is that not only being suspected in front of the boss, even his superiors doubt whether he has betrayed him, and he ends up being hacked to death on the street.

Li Xiaofan didn't want to be that kind of person, so he refused directly.

Seeing this, Old Man Hu played the emotional card again, trying to be soft.

However, this time, Li Xiaofan refused to go no matter what the other party said.

"Peak Master, please stop talking. Even if I die, die outside, or jump off the mountain, I will not be an undercover agent."

"Please let me live! There are so many outstanding disciples of Zixia Sect, why do you insist on me going?"

Li Xiaofan asked with tears in his eyes.

Old Man Hu patted Li Xiaofan hard on the shoulder.

"Xiao Fan, this matter must be done by you. First of all, you have never practiced any Zixia Sect's spells, so you won't be suspected if you do it."

"Second, you can now draw third-grade talismans. As long as there are enough talismans, you can fight even if you are a Jindan monk. This is something that other disciples cannot compare to."

"Third, you have only been a member of the Zixia Sect for a short time. Not many people in the world of immortality have seen you. However, you are smart and can always adapt to situations, so only you can handle this important task."

"And the fourth and most important point."

Seeing how serious Old Man Hu was, Li Xiaofan tried to ask.

"Point four, what is that?"

Old Man Hu: "You are the only three disciples on my mountain. Now one of you is thinking about love and the other one can't say anything."

"Tell me, if you don't go to hell, who will?"
