C2405 Enter the Valley
The mountain ranges rose and fell like coiling dragons, the lakes were like a myriad of stars, the mountains and rivers melded together, and the spirit energy surged, as if it was a beautiful divine land.
There were also many palace-like buildings in the middle of the lake, and they were carved in the splendor of mountains. While walking, they gave off a feeling as if they were walking in the Celestial Realm.
The more he walked towards the inner core of the Medicine Sovereign Valley, the more Lin Bai could feel an extremely strong pressure from the cauldron shaped mountain range in the deepest part of the valley. A giant cauldron shaped mountain towered between the heaven and earth. It was majestic, shrouded in mist, and possessed a terrifying fire intent.
According to what Lin Bai said before, this cauldron shaped mountain in the Medicine Valley was rumored to be made by an unknown senior in the Medicine Valley who was also known as the Alchemy Cauldron.
But compared to the strange terrain, the ones that Lin Bai feared the most were the disciples of the Medicine Valley. As far as Lin Bai could see, all of these Medicine Valley disciples had a divine light enveloping them, making them look extremely extraordinary. All of them had extraordinary talents, and their cultivation could even be considered the elites of the underworld. However, although the cultivation of the Medicine Valley's disciples were extraordinary, they were all very low-key. When they looked at Lin Bai, they all smiled and nodded, without any trace of smoke or fire.
This was what a big sect should look like! Feeling the auras of these people, Lin Bai sighed in his heart. He was very clear that the reason why these people were acting in such a manner was because of the special position the Medicine God Valley had in the hidden realm.
Due to the special nature of the pellet and its uniqueness, no matter what kind of change occurred in the hidden world, it would not have much of an impact on Pill King Valley. Furthermore, compared to the other sects in the underworld, which were in a mess and in a different situation, the more chaotic things became, the more the Medicine Valley's power increased, and the more people did not dare to have any malicious thoughts, and could only try to rope them in, and not be hostile to them.
In this kind of special position, the disciples of the Medicine Valley naturally didn't need to be like the disciples of the other sects, fearing and feeling uneasy for the sake of the affairs of the world and them being like chess. He did not have any distractions in his heart, so he did not need to worry about the shock to the outside world.
If the battle eventually came to an end and it was difficult to resolve, then Pill King Valley's decision would inevitably become the greatest force that would decide the course of the war. Its choice would completely change the strength of both sides, turning the scales of victory against them.
The more he looked at the extraordinary scene in the Pill King Valley, the more shocked Lin Bai became, the more he felt that he had come to the right place.
However, this caused him to feel a sense of unease in his heart. Because Pill King Valley's position was not ordinary, and because it had the power to determine the course of war, no matter if it was him or the Spirit Spring Martial School, they would both want to win him over, and in this battle, the only one who benefited was Pill King Valley.
If he did not take revenge, he would not be able to get the support of Pill King Valley. However, if those resources that he had painstakingly accumulated were given to Pill King Valley for no reason at all, how could Lin Bai be willing?
This was a very contradictory matter. However, it was something that could not be avoided. In fact, even if Lin Bai thought about it, the fact that the Medicine Sovereign Valley was able to possess such a powerful might was inextricably linked to the turmoil in the hidden realm in the past. It was precisely because the sects that were fighting were like him that they would allow Medicine God Valley's lion king to scrape them with his mouth, not daring to say anything more.
"The last time Dao Friend Lin was in the Little Fang Mountain, you tricked me so much. At that time, I really thought you were a sword cultivator from the Sword Pavilion, but I didn't expect you to be a famous and renowned grandmaster …"
After bringing Lin Bai into the guest hall of the Medicine Valley, the old man surnamed Qu smiled and greeted Lin Bai. He then said in a probing tone, "I wonder what is the purpose of your visit to the Medicine King Valley, Fellow Daoist Lin, but do you want to buy some Yuan Yang Pills and Natal Opening Pills like those from the Medicine King Valley, just like when you came to Little Fang Mountain?"
When Lin Bai heard this, he immediately smiled. His smile was filled with a hint of playfulness. He didn't believe that this old man Qu was so stupid as to not know about the declaration of war that he and the Sword Pavilion had issued against the Spirit Spring Sect.
But now, Elder Li pretended that he did not know and asked him for his intentions to come. There was no other reason other than that he wanted Pill King Valley to be in the lead in the negotiations and beg them for more benefits.
But even though he already knew that being blackmailed by the Medicine Valley was unavoidable, Lin Bai still wasn't willing to back down. To ask for someone else's help and to swear an oath on equal status between the two might not seem like much of a difference, but in essence, there was a world of difference between the two.
If you ask for someone else, the other person will be in the dominant position, and no matter how you go, you will only be able to look down on the other person's breath. If the other person says one, you cannot say two; but if the two are in an equal position, then it will be different.
Lin Bai was confident that he could change the situation and dispel the thought of Pill King Valley taking the initiative. He wanted them to sit down obediently and negotiate a treaty with him, stating that the two of them were on equal footing.
"Speaking of which, I have to thank all the seniors in Medicine Valley. The pills in your Valley of Medicine are truly magical, because the effects of the Absolute Yuan Pill has fulfilled one of my hopes." One of the reasons that I have come here today, is to express my gratitude to all of you in Pill King Valley. " Laughing lightly, Lin Bai did not directly answer the old man surnamed Kuang. Instead, he continued his words and continued his conversation.
However, Lin Bai's words were not against his will. It was only because of the effects of the Origin Cutting Pill that Zhang SanKuang was able to break free from the shackles of heaven and earth and regain his sight.
Being able to help Fellow Lin is also a blessing for our Medicine King Valley. Furthermore, Fellow Lin's conditions for exchanging pills is also very good, and it is also extremely useful to my Medicine God Valley. It could even be said that our Medicine King Valley took advantage of Fellow Lin.
Could it be that this boy didn't come here to discuss the alliance, but simply to express his gratitude or to purchase other pills? Then, he turned his head and cupped his hands towards a disciple that was standing beside him and said with a gentle smile: "Liao Qiuyi, Fellow Lin came all the way here, take a cup of Lotus Heart Tea to relieve Fellow Lin of all the trouble you've gone through."
After hearing Old Man Qu's words, the Medicine Valley disciple who had made a fool of himself cupped his hands at Lin Bai and turned to leave.
Lotus Heart Tea? When Lin Bai heard this, he couldn't help but feel somewhat doubtful. It wasn't that he hadn't heard of Lotus Heart Tea before, but it wasn't that he hadn't tasted it before either. This tea could be considered one of the famous Chinese tea leaves. After the tea leaves had been brewed, it took the shape of a lotus flower petal.
However, the name of this tea was only in the secular world. Lin Bai was curious about the difference between this Lotus Heart Tea and Lotus Heart Tea, which was known to possess endless elixirs when refining elixirs.
"Fellow Taoist Lin, you might not know this, but the Lotus Heart Tea from my Medicine Valley is not like ordinary tea from the outside world. It has many uses, but you will know about it after a try." The old man surnamed Qu seemed to be able to see the doubt in Lin Bai's heart. He chuckled and then explained to Lin Bai. On the surface, however, his expression was one of pride, as if he was extremely proud of the Lotus Heart Tea.
No matter how amazing the tea soup was, it was just a small portion of tea after all. Was there a need to act so arrogantly? He was very clear on the meaning behind Old Man Kuang's actions, and it was basically proving to Lin Bai that the Medicine God Valley was wealthy. He wanted to use this as a warning to Lin Bai, if he wants to cooperate with the Medicine God Valley, then he must show sufficient sincerity.
Although Lin Bai understood the old man's meaning, he still had some anticipation. He wanted to see just what sort of miraculous effect this Lotus Heart Tea had that would cause the old man to have such pride.
Just as Lin Bai was thinking about this, the disciple who had made the painting had already returned. However, in his hand was a tray with a teacup on it that was sparkling and translucent like white jade. Although it was not touched, it was already extremely warm.
"Senior, please have some tea!" With a smile on her face, Lian Qiong slowly walked in front of Lin Bai and raised the tray in front of Lin Bai.
Lin Bai smiled when he saw this and swept his gaze over the tray. Within the teacup that was like white jade, there was a teacup and a teacup that was the color of jade. Within the teacup, there was a teacup and a teacup that was the color of jade, that emitted a little bit of spirit energy.
With just a glance, it made people feel that the tea was not ordinary. Looking at the jade-green tea, it made their mouths go dry. They wanted to drink the tea that seemed to be filled with spring water in one gulp.
"Thank you for your generous gift, senior." With a hearty laugh, Lin Bai clasped his hands at the old man surnamed Kuang. Then, he raised his hand and brought the teacup over to the teacup. He wanted to remove the teacup from the tray and place the teacup into his mouth.
As soon as his fingers touched the tea cup that was as fine as a lamb's fat jade, Lin Biden immediately felt a powerful spiritual energy radiating from within the coldness, filling his limbs and bones with a sense of emptiness.
However, just as Lin Bai's hands came in contact with the teacup and was about to pick it up, he suddenly felt that the teacup and tray were like metal and magnets, glued tightly together. No matter how he tore, he was unable to pull them away.
Surprised, Lin Bai looked over and saw the old man surnamed Qu and Lian Qiu1 staring at him with playful smiles on their faces.
