The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 521
Chapter 521 Patriarch Lanxin
“What? You’re Patriarch Lanxin?” Li Qing said in shock. Could it really be such a coincidence that he had just arrived at the Heavenly Crossing Stronghold and encountered the target he was looking for? This was a bit too lucky.
However, the other party smiled and took out a white paper lotus flower. A ray of light flew out from it and turned into a cold sword qi. He said, “This paper lotus flower was personally made by me. It contains a strand of my divine will. You can check it.”
Only then did Li Qing believe what she said. He nodded and said, “So it really is Patriarch Lanxin! My luck is not bad. I just arrived at the Heavenly Crossing Stronghold and met the Lord. I want to join the White Lotus Sect. I wonder if it meets the requirements?”
“Why do you want to join?”
“I feel that the White Lotus Sect’s philosophy is very suitable for me, and I yearn for it in my heart. Therefore, I traveled thousands of miles to the Central Region to search for the destination of my soul.” Li Qing pretended to be intoxicated.
Of course, these words were nonsense. He just wanted to get away with it. Originally, she thought that Patriarch Lanxin would be dissatisfied, but in the end, she had a calm expression, as if she did not recognize the perfunctory meaning in Li Qing’s words.
‘”Since you sincerely want to convert to the White Lotus Sect, then I will not reject such a devout believer. After I deal with the matter of the Heavenly Crossing Stronghold, I will bring you back to the secret altar of the White Lotus Sect to pay my respects to the Virgin White Lotus.”
“You passed so easily?” Li Qing was surprised.
“The door of the White Lotus Sect will always be open to the world! Those who agree with our doctrine, regardless of your identity, whether you are evil, spy or spy, as long as you listen to the teachings of Holy Mother White Lotus, you will find your soul’s home and convert to the Lifeless White Lotus Throne.”
Li Qing’s heart went cold when he saw the other party’s holy and devout appearance. Was this really a Void Realm expert? Why do you feel like a foolish believer who’s been blinded?
Patriarch Lanxin smiled and said, “With your strength, being a core member is more than enough. You even have the chance to become one of the Eight Great Saint Messengers in the future. After all, you were recommended by my Senior Sister. I will give you more support in the future!”
Li Qing cautiously asked, “Do you dare to ask me if I want to be planted with Heavenly Demon Seeds?”
“That’s not the Heavenly Demon Seed. It’s the blessing of the White Lotus God. You should feel honored.” Patriarch Lanxin said with a serious expression.
From her appearance, it was obvious that she knew that she had been planted with the Heavenly Demon Seed, but it was treated as a blessing by her, and her heart was filled with gratitude.
Li Qing thought to himself, “No wonder Patriarch Lanxin accepted me without asking about my identity. The White Lotus Sect is not afraid of spies at all. As long as they are core members, they are all planted with Heavenly Demon Seeds and converted to the Lifeless White Lotus Seat.”
After a conversation with Patriarch Lanxin, Li Qing could clearly feel that the person who planted the Heavenly Demon Seed was acting very normally in all aspects. He was clear-headed and could not only remember the past, but also possess the emotions of a normal person.
When talking about the White Lotus Sect, they would be confused, loyal, and wholeheartedly defending the interests of the White Lotus Sect. He didn’t even know that he was under control. He even thought that he sincerely acknowledged the profundity of the White Lotus Sect and was willing to give everything for it.
This was simply too terrifying!
This was equivalent to a villain who did bad things all day long, but he did not feel that he was doing bad things. Instead, he felt that everything he did was right and was saving the world.
‘”If I really did see Ke’er, she would definitely remember me and love me deeply in her heart. But unlike before, love is only the second most important thing in her heart, and the White Lotus Sect will always be at the forefront. It seems that I will have to use some methods to make her consume the Cleansing Spirit Immortal Pill at that time.”
Patriarch Lanxin said, “Leave for now and stay here for a few days. Next, I will preach the teachings of the White Lotus Sect, appease the refugees, save the endless suffering people from the Sea of Misery, and bathe them in the light of the Holy White Lotus.”
Li Qing immediately felt speechless. He secretly thought to himself, “Didn’t all of you cause the tragic situation in the stronghold?”
It had to be said that the White Lotus Sect’s technique was extremely brilliant.
Right now, the Heavenly Crossing Stronghold had just experienced a great battle with countless casualties. It was precisely at this time when people’s hearts were at their weakest. If the White Lotus Sect appeared as the Savior, it would definitely gain a large number of people’s hearts, and the world would be deceived by the hypocrisy of the White Lotus Sect.
Let some people start a war, and then let some people save the victims of the war. If they do bad things, they will gain a good reputation, which will be widely spread in the world. This is really killing two birds with one stone.
“Right, in the next few days, don’t call me Patriarch Lanxin. Instead, call me the Five Saint Emissary. Do you understand?” Said Patriarch Lanxin.
“Why is this?”
“Most of the core members of the White Lotus Sect do not reveal their true identities. Their identities are extremely secret. The people of the Wei and Zhao countries only know that I am the White Lotus Sect’s Holy Emissary, but they do not know my exact identity. You must not divulge it.”
“Junior, remember!”
Li Qing left Patriarch Lanxin’s house. Someone had already cleaned up a clean house outside, so he temporarily stayed there.
It could be felt that there were at least five gazes staring at this side. Obviously, they were secretly monitoring Li Qing in case he suddenly escaped. Plus, Patriarch Lanxin wasn’t far away, so he could sense it with just a glance of his divine sense, so it wasn’t an easy task for him to leave quietly.
Patriarch Lanxin was also at the sixth level of the Void Realm, similar to Patriarch Wuyou. They were both old monsters who had cultivated for hundreds of years. Their strength was extremely powerful, and Li Qing was no match for her.
Li Qing sat in the room and felt somewhat distressed. “Patriarch Lanxin will soon take me to the White Lotus Sect’s secret altar. When she sees the Virgin White Lotus, she will definitely plant the Heavenly Demon Seed to me to ensure the absolute loyalty of the core members. What should I do in the face of this situation?”
Originally, in his imagination, the Heavenly Demon Seed should be ineffective against him, because he believed that he had already condensed his primordial spirit and was able to resist this evil power.
It was normal for him to have such an idea. If even his primordial spirit could be infected by the Heavenly Demon Seed, wouldn’t this thing be too heaven-defying?
The effects of the Heavenly Demon Seed were limited and could not be effective against anyone. To take an extreme example, the Heavenly Demon Seed would definitely not be able to control a Dao Realm expert.
With his butt, he knew that how could a Dao Realm expert be controlled by this thing? If that was the case, wouldn’t it be invincible under the heavens if they used the Heavenly Demon Seed to control a batch of Dao Realm experts back in the days of the Heavenly Demon Sect Master?
This was also the reason why Li Qing intended to join the White Lotus Sect. He intended to use his primordial spirit to resist the invasion of the Heavenly Demon Seed and muddle through.
At that time, he would pretend to have been planted with Heavenly Demon Seeds and hide in the White Lotus Sect, waiting for an opportunity to move.
However, from the looks of it, something was amiss.
He had originally thought that the eight Great Divine Messengers of the White Lotus Sect were not controlled by the Heavenly Demon Seed, but were merely subservient to the Holy Mother of the White Lotus.
However, the conversation he had just had with Patriarch Lanxin had allowed him to discover that Patriarch Lanxin was indeed under the control of the Heavenly Demon Seed.
The Heavenly Demon Seed really seemed to have an effect on the primordial spirit!
“Is this thing really this heaven-defying? Even a Void Realm expert can control it? It feels incredible.” Li Qing was very puzzled.
He still didn’t believe it.
But the problem was that in such a situation, it was impossible for him to give it a try. If the Heavenly Demon Seed really worked on his primordial spirit, then he would be controlled by that time, and it would be too late to cry.
Not only did he fail to rescue Liu Ke’er, he even got himself involved.
“If I can’t overcome the Heavenly Demon Seed, then I won’t be able to sneak into the White Lotus Sect. My primordial spirit can’t guarantee my safety. Is there any other way to sneak through?” Li Qing thought quickly in his heart.
Right at this moment, a thought flashed through his mind. Then, he remembered an important matter, “Right, how could I forget this! The Demon Ancestor’s inheritance! I have such an insurance policy. How could the Heavenly Demon Seed work on me?”
How powerful would the Soul Force left behind by the Demon Ancestor be? It was much more powerful than ordinary Dao Realm experts, and even the remnant soul of the Yin Yang Demon Emperor was devoured by him. He absolutely did not believe that the Heavenly Demon Seed could pollute such a huge Soul Force.
Moreover, the Demon Ancestor would definitely leave behind a trump card in his mind. It was impossible for others to control Li Qing’s soul.
If it was really that easy, then back then, Yin Tianhong wouldn’t have used such a roundabout method to obtain the Demon Ancestor’s inheritance. Wouldn’t it be better to directly use a tough method to control Li Qing?
Even the Myriad Devil Sect had no choice. He didn’t believe that just one Heavenly Demon Seed could control his soul.
“With the help of the Demon Ancestor, I can basically guarantee that the Heavenly Demon Seed is ineffective against me. In this way, I can rest assured and try!” Li Qing finally made up his mind to go to the White Lotus Sect’s secret altar.
“As I expected, the Heavenly Demon Seed should not be able to control Void Realm experts unless … this Void Realm expert is willing to let go of all of his primordial spirit’s defenses and take the initiative to lure the Heavenly Demon Seed in!” Li Qing guessed.
This is probably the closest thing to the truth. The Heavenly Demon Seed was not as powerful as he had imagined. A Void Realm expert could block the Heavenly Demon Seed with a slight bit of defense, but if he took the initiative to absorb it, the situation would naturally be different.
Back then, Patriarch Lanxin had taken the initiative to join the White Lotus Sect, so he definitely had to let go of his primordial spirit to receive the Heavenly Demon Seed, which was why he was controlled. If Li Qing wanted to join the White Lotus Sect, it would be the same.
If he didn’t let go of his primordial spirit to receive the Heavenly Demon Seed, he wouldn’t be able to gain the trust of Holy Mother White Lotus
“If you have a chance, contact Yin Qianyu and ask her to provide some information about the Heavenly Demon Seed Ceremony. Only after you have a clear understanding of it will you be able to act more like it.” Li Qing thought to himself.
Even if he really had a way to resist the Heavenly Demon Seed, if he acted badly and revealed any flaws, it would still be a bad thing. He had to prepare well in advance!
