"It's actually you."

Later, the old man's two apprentices also ran over, and they were both a little surprised when they saw Qin Cheng.

"No need to thank you, you helped me once before, this time it's just a reward." Qin Cheng took back the bronze sword and said calmly.

After saying that, Qin Cheng planned to leave.

It was just a small effort, and the other party had helped him before, and he didn't want the other party to repay him.

"Fellow Taoist, stay."

But seeing Qin Cheng about to leave, the old man's eyes turned to the monster's legs, a flash of surprise flashed across his face, and he suddenly spoke.

"Is there anything else?" Qin Cheng said.

"Fellow Taoist, you are also going to the monk near the sword-washing pool. Since we met by chance twice, we are destined to be together. How about we go together?" The old man cupped his hands and said with a smile.

"Master!"

Hearing this, the young male cultivator suddenly became nervous.

However, before the young man could say anything, the old man glared hard at him, and the young man immediately shut his mouth.

"You want me to come with you?"

Qin Cheng raised his eyebrows.

Although the two parties have met twice, they are not familiar with their identities and backgrounds after all. Is this old man so bold and trustworthy?

"My fellow Taoist came to wash the sword pool, and he must have come to look for the Golden Spirit Fruit." The old man said with a smile.

"Although there are some of these things growing within ten miles around the Sword Washing Pond, it is quite difficult to find them without the guidance of someone who is familiar with this place."

"And the spirit rat in our hands has the effect of searching for the golden spirit fruit. If we find it at the right time, we can share it equally, which is much better than you groping alone."

"How do you know I'm looking for the Golden Spirit Fruit?" Qin Cheng said.

"Haha, it's not difficult to guess." The old man said, twirling his beard.

"The monks who entered this barren mountain either entered the Sword Cleansing Pond in search of opportunities, or they were looking for the Golden Spirit Fruit, and fellow Taoists were traveling at the same speed as us. Obviously they were monks who did not have the Sword Cleansing Sect's token, so they could only look for the Golden Spirit Fruit.

It’s spiritual fruit.”

"How about you fellow Taoist? I, Mr. Xu, don't have the temper to invite others casually. I just see that my fellow Taoist has a good character and rescued the golden rat. If we go on the road together, we will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."

Qin Cheng's eyes flashed a few times.

I really don’t know what the Golden Spirit Fruit is.

However, since the old man spoke so confidently, this must be something that many monks are looking for.

Moreover, this old man is indeed quite familiar with this area. There should be no harm in following this man for a while to learn more about it.

However, Qin Cheng still did not agree immediately.

"Fellow Taoist, since you want to cooperate, then be honest with each other and tell us your real reasons." Qin Cheng said.

Just because he saved the spirit rat, the other party invited him to search for the golden spirit fruit together. It was obviously too childish.

Especially this old man, he is actually quite scheming, as can be seen from what happened before.

There must be something about yourself that attracts the other person's attention.

"Haha, my fellow Taoist saw it, so I'll tell the truth."

The old man didn't hide anything, he smiled and said: "Fellow Taoist just stopped this monster, he must have used some special means."

Saying that, without waiting for Qin Cheng's reply, the old man directly lifted the monster up.

"The monsters here are different from other places. Because they have lived in the golden energy for a long time, their bodies are extremely hard. Even a monk in the Tribulation Realm can't easily break its fur from a long distance."

"But fellow Taoist's method was fast and ruthless. He directly shattered its front legs. This gave us a chance."

"So, when the spiritual beast is looking for the golden spirit fruit, I hope that fellow Taoists can protect this beast thoroughly."

"Okay." Qin Cheng nodded.

I could tell that the old man was not lying, and that a fast and powerful fighting method like the Sky-Eating Insect was indeed special in this Golden Spirit Land.

As long as I am around, this spirit rat will not be attacked by other monsters if it is thrown out to search for it.

The other party knows how to find the golden spirit fruit and knows this place, so he can protect their spirit rats, which is mutually beneficial.

Next, the two parties introduced each other.

The old man calls himself Xu Zhe, and outsiders call him Xu Laodao.

As for the two young monks, they were both children he picked up and became his disciples, named Yang Hong and Yang Fan.

What surprised Qin Cheng was that these three people were not casual cultivators, but came from a nearby sect called Luopo Sect.

This Xu Laodao is the leader of this sect, and the three of them are also the three strongest in the entire sect.

Next, the four of them went on the road together, and Qin Cheng found that it was indeed much easier to follow Xu Laodao.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, you must not leave the land with white mist in front of you. It is not ordinary water vapor, but the golden gas that is too rich and condensed into a chaotic golden gas."

"If someone steps into this thing, the white mist will dissipate, and even a weak and powerful person will not be able to withstand it."

As Xu Laodao walked, he introduced Qin Cheng.

"And Fellow Daoist Cheng, look at the spirit fruit over there. It looks similar to the golden spirit fruit, but it is actually extremely poisonous. Once swallowed, the elixir cannot save you."

Qin Cheng listened and nodded slightly.

As I walked along, my eyes would open from time to time. If I felt something was wrong, I would go around it.

Therefore, he did not set foot in the dangerous places that Xu Laodao mentioned.

But after this person explained it, he knew where the danger was and gained a lot.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, did you go to the Zhengqi Sect's opening ceremony a few days ago?"

This old Taoist Xu is very good at talking.

After having introduced the dangerous places in Jinling Mountain, he started to talk to Qincheng about other things.

From the looks of it, he seems to be planning to have a good relationship with Qin Cheng so that they can have a heart-to-heart relationship with each other.

"How did a little guy like me end up in a place like that?" Qin Cheng said with a smile.

"Fellow Taoist has been there?"

Qin Cheng thought for a moment and found that all the twenty-eight sects in Ziyunling went to the ceremony, but he probably didn't see Mr. Xu.

But it's normal. There were too many monks at the VIP table that day. In addition to the twenty-eight sects, there were also various casual cultivators. There were many sects outside Ziyunling. Xu Laodao's sect was average in power, so he probably wouldn't be in a good position.

.

"Haha, I was indeed lucky enough to go, but the Zhengqi Sect Grand Ceremony was really interesting. It's a pity that Fellow Daoist Qin didn't go."

When Xu Laodao mentioned the main hall that ended not long ago, his face was still full of excitement.

"Especially at the end, when I saw the founder of the Zhengqi Sect, someone named Cheng, he was obviously in the early stage of transcending the tribulation realm, but he was extremely powerful. He knocked Elder Meng away with one move and knocked him unconscious until he vomited blood. It was really satisfying."

Xu Laodao stroked his beard excitedly and said: "This bastard Meng Chaoyang should have been taught a lesson a long time ago. You know I almost jumped with joy at that time."

"Master, if you talk too much, you will be wrong."

Hearing Xu Laodao's voice getting louder and louder, Yang Hong and Yang Fan were startled, and Yang Fan couldn't help but remind him.

In this Jinling Mountain Range, the golden energy is too strong, causing everyone's spiritual consciousness to be unable to spread.
