A devil's self-redemption

Xie Xiangyang and others also looked at Luo Lai curiously. They knew from the beginning that the Li Chen Sect had a senior who had been in the Li Mortal Realm. For some unknown reason, he had never been promoted to the Tengyun Realm. Today, this person actually said that he had been A breakthrough gave them the feeling of witnessing history.

Lan Xin's personality has become much more cheerful since she came back from Fuyao Sect Secret Realm. When she heard that Luo said that she had achieved a breakthrough, she also smiled and congratulated: "Congratulations to Senior Brother Luo for his successful breakthrough. I didn't expect that Senior Brother Luo actually achieved a breakthrough. This is considered a breakthrough." Isn’t it considered the biggest news in Lichen Sect in recent years?”

The others laughed when they heard this. Luo Lai also laughed bitterly!

"By the way, Senior Brother Luo, do you know my sister?" Lan Xin suddenly stopped laughing and asked with an ugly face.

Luo Lai was confused, and then he thought of her surname. Not to mention, he actually knew someone with the same surname as Lan Xin, so he said, "Isn't your sister Lan Lan?"

Lan Xin nodded vigorously and said, "Yeah, my sister is Lan Lan. She always mentioned you to me and said that you were amazing when I was training with you!"

"Haha! I didn't expect you to be Lan Lan's sister. Your sister and I have known each other for a long time. By the way, what has your sister been doing recently?"

Luo Lai just asked casually. Unexpectedly, Lan Xin's originally ugly expression became even more ugly, and there was mist in her eyes. Seeing this situation, Luo Lai knew that something might have happened to Lan Lan, and immediately asked anxiously: "Don't cry, tell me what happened to your sister?"

Lan Xin held back her tears and said with some hesitation: "My sister took the new disciples down the mountain for trials some time ago. Who would have known that she would not come back after she left? Six first-level disciples were also missing. The sect's people went to investigate the location of their trial, but no clues were found. Senior Sister Zi Yafei and her people have been searching, but there is no news so far. I'm afraid...I'm afraid..."

"Don't worry, hasn't Senior Sister Ziya been leading people to search? I'm going on a long trip tomorrow, so I'll go searching for it. If there's any news, I'll pass it on to you right away!" Luo Lai comforted Lan Xin. , while telling him about his upcoming departure from the sect.

Wen Ruyu immediately asked: "Senior Brother Luo, didn't the sect leader tell us not to go out? Will you be targeted by those Yunhai Sect people if you go out now?"

Luo Lai returned softly: "I am traveling secretly this time, so I will cover my appearance. Now I am here to ask the elder to help prepare some supplies for the long journey."

"Then go quickly, we won't waste your time!"

Under the urging of several people and Lan Xin's eager eyes, Luo Lai walked to the back hall and found the elder who was in charge of the forbidden area today, his master Song He.

"Master! Why are you here?" Luo Lai saluted Song He quickly after seeing him, and was very surprised, because Song He also held the position of the outer sect's great elder and rarely sat in forbidden areas.

Song He said with a smile: "Ancestor Su specially ordered me to stay here for a period of time! I was also very puzzled at first, but now that I see you, I probably understand what Ancestor Su means. Tell me, why do you want to see me? ?”

Luo Lai also understood that this was Old Ancestor Su taking care of him, and he was even more moved.

"Master, I need some materials for making array talismans. Look, here are the types and quantities of materials!" Luo said and handed a large piece of paper to Song He.

Song Hejie took a look at the list and immediately changed his expression, because Luo Lai needed too much. Although the sect could collect it all, it was all given to Luo Lai, and others would be short-circuited if they wanted to use it!

"There are too many. I can't make the decision. I need to ask the sect leader for instructions." After saying that, he took out a jade plaque and wrote on it. After waiting for a while, the jade plaque responded. After another look, he put it away. got up.

"The sect master agreed. She has already ordered someone to prepare it for you. Just come to me to pick it up tomorrow!"

"Thank you, master!" Luo Lai saluted and thanked!

"Haha, why are you so polite as a teacher? Although you and I have been masters and disciples over the years, we really haven't taught you anything. At first, it was because you were proficient in the ancestral language. However, what people didn't expect was that ordinary people like us couldn't learn it. You Your origin is mysterious and I don’t want to say more. We didn’t ask too much, but you must be related to the founding ancestor of our Lichen Sect, otherwise you wouldn’t have been summoned. These years, Master Nephew Ziya has been looking for recovery. The way you remember is to run around and return to the sect only a handful of times. This time, she heard that someone from the sect went missing during the trial, and she also participated in the search. She just couldn't pass the test in her heart. , she always thought that it was her own fault that caused you to suffer these disasters. I am not saying this to explain anything, but to let you know that even if you leave the Lichen Sect, this is still your home, and your elders and friends are also here. We are always paying attention to your news!”

Song He talked about these trivial things gently, but Luo Lai's heart was ups and downs, and he couldn't help himself.

"Don't worry, master, I have some problems because of my practice. Ancestor Su has found some clues. I will definitely come back after I solve these problems!"

"Hehehe! It's good to come back, it's good to come back!"

After chatting with Song He for a while, he said goodbye and left. He walked out of the hall and walked in one direction. He was now looking for Zhao Xuanba. Since being banned by the sect master, Zhao Xuanba and Bing Lingjun each searched in the forbidden area. I have found a location with abundant spiritual energy to practice till now.

Soon Luo Lai found Zhao Xuanba at a lake. At this moment, Zhao Xuanba was sitting cross-legged and suspended above the lake. A stream of rich water-attribute spiritual energy was poured into his body, and his body surface was also covered with a layer of water. Wrapped in aura, it looks particularly eye-catching.

Luo Lai originally wanted to wait for Zhao Xuanba to finish his work and talk to him. Unexpectedly, Zhao Xuanba seemed to notice someone coming. His eyes suddenly opened and a light flashed through. Then he gradually disappeared after seeing that the person coming was Luo Lai.

Without seeing any movement from him, his body floated toward the shore, and the aura on his body was absorbed into his body. By the time he reached the shore, he had returned to his usual carefree appearance.

"Why do you, a busy man like you, have time to come to my place today? Miss me?" Zhao Xuanba walked up to Luo Lai and casually put his arm around his shoulders, shaking him hard.

Luo Lailai was still not used to his particularly close behavior. She shrugged and tried to avoid his arm, but failed. He stopped worrying about this and asked, "Have you bothered Senior Sister Bing recently?"

Zhao Xuanba rolled his eyes when he heard his words and retorted: "What does it mean to be annoyed? I am pursuing happiness!"

Luo Lai echoed angrily: "Okay, okay, you pursue happiness, but Senior Sister Bing is unhappy because you are annoying her!"

"Alas! The Ice Fairy is in seclusion recently, and I have nothing to do, so I have to practice water escape. Not to mention, this water escape is indeed the top skill in the world of cultivation. Once you practice it to a small extent, it will be quite powerful. , and I found that practicing water escape can actually improve your cultivation, which is incredible." Zhao Xuanba first lamented the boring life, and then sighed at the power of water escape.

Luo Lai was startled and asked hurriedly: "Jin Jin's cultivation? Really? Why didn't I notice that I was practicing Earth Escape Technique?"

Zhao Xuanba pondered for a moment and said, "Have you never practiced in a place with strong earth-attribute spiritual power?"

"Does this have something to do with it? I have been practicing in the center of the Spirit Gathering Array, and the spiritual energy there has no attributes!"

"Then you can try submerging yourself directly into the ground next time you practice. I have been practicing on this lake. If something happens, I will sink into the lake. During this time, my cultivation has improved rapidly. It won't be long before I will be promoted. It’s the realm of innocence!”

After listening to Zhao Xuanba's words, Luo Lai was stunned for a while. He had heard him say before that he was not far from the realm of innocence. He didn't expect that he would break through in less than three months. This speed of cultivation is really worthy of the word genius. !

After sighing in his heart about Zhao Xuanba's talent, he said to him: "I will give it a try when I get back. The main reason I came here today is to say goodbye to you. I will leave tomorrow!"

"Leave? The sect master allows you to leave the forbidden area? Why can't I? If not, I have to go to the sect master to reason!"

Luo Lai grabbed Zhao Xuanba who was about to fly up, and explained in a dumbfounded way: "It's useless for you to find the sect master. I have some problems in my own cultivation. I went out this time to find a solution. Old Ancestor Su Ordered!"

When Zhao Xuanba heard that Luo said something was wrong with him, his face became serious: "What's going on? I've been stuck in the Limortal Realm with you all year round... Huh? Have you made a breakthrough?"

Only then did he notice that Luo Lai's aura was already at the Miaomen realm.

"Well! I just broke through not long ago, and my own problems may also be related to the improvement of my cultivation level, but the most relevant one is the reason of bloodline. It's not convenient to tell you more about this! Old Ancestor Su found some clues, but he couldn't After leaving the sect, I had no choice but to go by myself!" Luo Lai explained.

Zhao Xuanba looked at Luo Lai and said seriously: "Is it really okay to be alone? Do you want me to accompany you? Anyway, I am a free man now."

Luo Lai was a little moved, but still refused: "No, the luck of this trip is unpredictable, I will try it myself first, and if it doesn't work, I will send you a message."

"Since we are friends, your business is my business. If you have any trouble, please notify me immediately!"

"Hahaha, of course. Since Senior Sister Bing is in seclusion, I won't bother you in the past. You can say hello to me when she comes out of seclusion."

"Why are you so anxious?"

"There's no rush. If we don't solve it within two years, I might really have a problem!"

"Well, since it's not convenient for you to say, I won't ask. Please take care of yourself along the way!"

"it is good!"

After parting ways with Zhao Xuanba, Luo Lai returned to the stone house and thought carefully about Zhao Xuanba's words. It seemed that he had to try earth escape to see if he could improve his cultivation.

He did what he thought of, and soon he came to the valley where he practiced for the first time, and used the earth escape technique to sink directly into the ground.

When he noticed that there was a large amount of earth-attribute spiritual energy surrounding him, he stopped and began to practice the earth escape technique.

As a trace of earth-attribute spiritual energy entered his body, Luo Lai felt that his cultivation had indeed improved somewhat, but the extent of the improvement was extremely limited. If he hadn't been paying attention, he would have ignored this small increase.

What Zhao Xuanba said was indeed true. Earth escape and water escape could indeed improve one's cultivation, but Luo Lai soon thought of another question. There is a latch behind his Miaomen. No matter how he practices, the latch cannot be opened. If he cannot open the latch, he cannot push the Miaomen open. If he cannot push the Miaomen open, he can only remain in the early stage of the Miaomen realm. Even if he doesn't practice now, his cultivation will slowly increase until he reaches the peak of the early stage of Miaomen Realm!

Thinking of this, Luo Lai had a headache. He didn't expect that his cultivation path would be so bumpy.

After finishing the exercise, he surfaced from the ground and looked at the white fish belly on the horizon. A new day was about to begin, and he was leaving today.

A soft voice sounded behind Luo Lai: "Why, are you feeling emotional when you look at the rising sun?"

When Luo Lai heard the familiar voice, he did not look back and said with a smile: "I have lived in Lichen Sect for ten years and I still have deep feelings for him. I don't know when I will come back after leaving this time."

"Practice is timeless. I went down the mountain to practice for quite a few years. I have been away for two hundred years. When I returned to the sect again, there were only a few people who knew me. Those who were familiar with me at the time either left or died. Things have changed and people have changed. !”

Luo Lai didn't answer, and the two of them just watched the scorching sun blooming little by little. The red sun was rising, and its path was bright!

After the two returned to the stone house, Luo Lai said: "Ancestor, have you ever encountered an abnormal situation in the Miaomen, such as... there is a latch in the Miaomen, and the Miaomen cannot be pushed open?"

Old Ancestor Su was drinking tea. When he heard Luo Lai's question, the tea he had just poured into his mouth spurted out. He looked at Luo Lai with a strange expression, "You don't know how to...?"

Luo Lai looked embarrassed, but he couldn't lie. He didn't expect the old man to be so sharp.

"Summon your wonderful door and let me see it!"

Luo Lai followed his instructions and called out the Miaomen. In the eyes of Old Ancestor Su, the Miaomen, which had been ordinary for a long time, closed tightly and there was no abnormality at all.

Ancestor Su circled around Luo Lai and sighed: "I can't see anything wrong with your Miaomen, but since you have already felt it, there is a high probability that there is really something wrong with your Miaomen. Please let me think about it!"

Then Old Ancestor Su started pacing in the stone house. He walked for an hour. Finally, he came to Luo Lai helplessly and said, "I have never encountered such a weird thing, but one thing is for sure. If you want to open a wonderful door, you need to use mental power and cultivation. The strength of your mental power and the speed of your cultivation represent whether you can quickly open the wonderful door. If there is a latch behind your wonderful door, then it must be You also need to use mental power or cultivation to solve it. Whether you push it hard or find some tricky methods depends on your chance!"

Luo Lai was greatly inspired after hearing this. Although Patriarch Su did not help him completely solve this problem, he still gave him feasible suggestions based on his profound practice experience.

Luo Lai stood up and bowed his head to the end, once again expressing his heartfelt gratitude!

Patriarch Su waved his hand, threw a storage bag to him and said: "This is the most complete map of the practice world that I can find. The route you need to travel has been marked for you. I got it from your master. Prepare the house and set off as soon as possible!”
