The female supporting role is dedicated to cultivating immortality

Chapter 97 Lin Hongshe and Taiming Mountain

Luoxia City is a small place with few cultivation resources, and there is simply not enough space for the three cultivating families.The Lin family was stronger and had more cultivation resources. The Pei family and the Su family had to form an alliance to compete with the Lin family.

However, the Pei family and the Su family each have a Tianling root, but the Lin family does not.

Two to thirty years later, Pei Ruxi and Su Qinghan were promoted to the foundation building stage, and Lin Liangxing was still in the Qi refining stage. What can Lin do to compete with Pei and Su?
Lin Chucheng was worried that the clan would be suppressed by the Pei and Su families. When he heard that Pei Ruxi was participating in the hunt, he quietly planted a spy to learn about Pei Ruxi's whereabouts.

He also placed spies around Su Qinghan, but since Su Qinghan was hunting with the second elder of the Su family in the early stages of foundation building, the risk of targeting him was greater than targeting Pei Ruxi.Moreover, Su Qinghan's qualifications and training progress were not as good as Pei Ruxi's, and his strength was also weaker. The only thing he was better than Pei Ruxi was that he was born a man and would not marry anyone else.

Considering Su Qinghan's gender, Lin Chucheng thought: The lady and he are five years apart, so it might be feasible for him to marry the lady?I'm afraid this is not feasible. After all, Su Qinghan is the future leader of the Su clan. If we snatch him away, we will probably attract his uncle who is practicing in the sect in the foundation-building stage.Including his uncle, the Su clan has five foundation-building monks, who the Lin clan cannot defeat...

Lin Hongshe, the clan leader, saw the expressions on his clansmen's faces and guessed what he was thinking, and said, "Su Qinghan and Pei Ruxi are different. Don't try to get his ideas." He lowered his eyes and looked at the messenger talisman, "Pei Ruxi's Her strength is probably similar to that of Pei Jinsheng, but Yingying...she is stronger than Pei Jinsheng."

"The three of them working together can't defeat you, the clan leader." Lin Chucheng's compliment came from the bottom of his heart, "As long as you are willing to take action, the second elder of the Su family will also lose to you!"

"Of course." Lin Hongshe said unequivocally, "I will take you to kill the third-level monster in the south first, and then go to the east to find Pei Ruxi."

The east of the Lin clan's hunting area belongs to the Pei clan, but Lin Chucheng suggested: "Clan leader, the monks of the Pei clan don't have the ability to kill the third-level monsters in the east, why don't we kill them?"

Lin Hongshe said: "There are still a few third-level monsters that can be killed in our hunting area, so there is no need to break the rules."

Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Lin Hongshe was injured while hunting a third-level monster. Only half of the spiritual power in his dantian could be used. If he used more, there might be cracks in his meridians.He rested for three days and three nights, handed over the power of hunting to his trusted subordinates, and left the stronghold alone without telling most people.

Like the Pei family and the Su family, the Lin family monk also brought many casual cultivators for hunting.However, casual cultivators could easily be bribed. Lin Hongshe had no way of confirming that there were no spies among the casual cultivators, so his visit to see Pei Ruxi could not be made public.

As the saying goes: A lion fights a rabbit with all his strength.

He is a lion, Pei Ruxi is not a rabbit.If she dares to hunt, she must have the means to save her life even if she encounters a foundation-building monk or a third-level monster.If he alerts her and she escapes early, not only will his trip be in vain, but he will also arouse the vigilance of the Pei clan.

In fact, Lin Hongshe's consideration played a certain role, because Yinggu had already learned from the communication talisman that he was recovering from his injuries, and she probably knew whether his injuries were minor or serious.Ever since Pei Ruxi agreed to join the hunt, she had been wondering: Will Lin Hongshe have an idea for Pei Ruxi?
The dead Lin Yongsen was Lin Hongshe's confidant. He proposed to marry Pei Ruxi on behalf of the Lin family. This move must have been approved by Lin Hongshe.When Pei Ruxi left Luoxia City and came to the mountains, would Lin Hongshe turn a blind eye?

Yinggu felt that Lin Hongshe might be [-]% crooked.

Before coming to hunt, she asked Pei Ruxi: "If you meet the Lin clan leader, is there a way to escape?"

Pei Ruxi told her: "I have two escape talismans, a bolide talisman and a heavy rain talisman."

The three magical powers and sword talismans were hidden and not mentioned.Yinggu was half relieved and told Pei Ruxi not to be stingy in using the talisman. Life and freedom were more important than anything else.

As for letting Pei Ruxi stay in his ancestral home and not go out, that's not impossible.But hunting in the mountains carries the risk of death. Ordinary monks still have the courage to take risks. How could Pei Ruxi be timid?
On the night of the successful crocodile hunting, the stronghold was very lively. Some people took out the wine that was not allowed to be brought for hunting, had a few sips and chatted to celebrate the hunting victory.

The next day, Pei Ruxi and a fellow member of the eleventh level of Qi Refining teamed up to hunt a monster beast living in the cave and came back with trophies and minor injuries.The power of the monster was too strong. During the battle, one of its kind couldn't dodge and was stepped on. Pei Ruxi was also knocked over.However, she and her kind finally killed the monsters and gained combat experience.

After resting for a day, Pei Ruxi and Yinggu took the people deep into the forest. After a day and a half of trekking, they arrived at the foot of a ten thousand-foot mountain that exuded a cold atmosphere.

Yinggu said: "This mountain is called Taiming. There are spiritual herbs with Yin attributes in the mountain, and there are also many ghosts that gather here. We have to search for the spiritual herbs while exploring, and try to avoid taking action when encountering monsters."

Pei Ruxi used his mental skills to sense the surrounding environment, frowned slightly, and said, "The Yin Qi of this mountain is so heavy."

Yinggu took out a box from the storage bag, opened the box, and distributed the talismans in the box to Pei Ruxi and other fifteen people. She said: "Carrying talismans with you can isolate the Yin Qi. I know the safe way into the mountain. You guys Follow me and don’t wander around.”

The hunting area of ​​the Pei family includes Taiming Mountain, but this mountain has a strong gloomy atmosphere. Second-level ghosts can occasionally be seen wandering at the foot of the mountain, and third-level ghosts can be encountered halfway up the mountain.

More than ten years ago, Pei Xiangrong, who did not believe in evil, brought people to Taiming Mountain to collect some second-level spiritual grass. Unfortunately, he encountered two fighting fourth-level ghosts.One of the ghosts spit out a breath of black air at him. He was highly cultivated and felt cold all over, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.The two Qi Refining monks beside him were covered in ice and fell to the ground dead. Pei Xiangrong was so frightened that he hurried down the mountain and walked around Taiming Mountain from then on.

Hearing that Yinggu planned to climb Taiming Mountain, everyone except Pei Ruxi hesitated.

Yinggu looked around at everyone and said, "Those who don't want to climb the mountain can stay at the foot of the mountain."

Her destination was Taiming Mountain, and everyone had expected it along the way.She did not ask everyone to climb the mountain. Four monks stood up decisively: "We stay."

Five people were hesitant. They wanted to get the spiritual herbs from Taiming Mountain, but they were also afraid of being buried in Taiming Mountain.

Yinggu suggested: "Those who think their strength is acceptable may wish to go into the mountain and give it a try. If you don't want to climb the mountain, you can go back to the foot of the mountain."

The place where they were standing did not belong to Taiming Mountain. After walking forward for half an hour, the number of flowers, trees, birds, beasts and insects gradually decreased. The dark brown land was dotted with a few plants and trees, and occasionally weak ghosts were seen floating around.

After walking forward for two quarters of an hour, Pei Ruxi stopped and said to the hesitant people: "Ahead is the boundary of Taiming Mountain. The yin energy is twice as strong as here, and there are more ghosts. Are you ready to climb the mountain?"
