Chapter 177: Spirit Refining Method
Chapter 177: Spirit Refining Method (asking for monthly ticket)
Hechen County City.
Many celestial beings from the Divine Sword Sect gathered here.
The supreme elder Feng Shaoyu and Wan Xiangu have both returned from the Wei family.
"We didn't see the celestial being of the Wei family at all. Only a great master received us and said he didn't know about this matter."
Feng Shaoyu said in a deep voice.
The Wei family's attitude clearly shows that they do not take the Divine Sword Sect seriously.
The whole audience fell silent.
Everyone knows that the Divine Sword Sect has only two options. One is to endure and lose a celestial being in vain, but if they do that, the morale of the people in the Divine Sword Sect will probably fall apart.
The second way is to retaliate against the Wei family in kind, and the final outcome will inevitably be an all-out war.
Once the Divine Sword Sect loses, it may disappear into thin air.
"When the Luo Palace's army was approaching, our Divine Sword Sect was facing a life-and-death crisis, but we also refused to surrender. Now that we are being bullied by the Wei Family, how can we continue to tolerate it?"
A hot-tempered supreme elder slammed the table and said angrily.
This attracted the approval of some supreme elders.
Elder Qingsong was also very troubled when he saw this situation.
Because he knew that if he made a decision, it might push the Divine Sword Sect into an unpredictable abyss.
"Elder Feng, please go to the Wei family again and speak more forcefully."
Elder Qingsong pondered for a moment and said, "We must meet the celestial being of the Wei family."
"it is good."
Feng Shaoyu nodded.
He knew that this matter had to be handled with extreme caution and that war should not be started lightly.
"Elder Qingsong, what else is there to discuss? Going again will only bring humiliation upon ourselves. If the sect does not seek justice for Senior Brother Yun, I, Liu Bai, will withdraw from the Divine Sword Sect and avenge Senior Brother Yun in private."
The hot-tempered celestial being snorted coldly, slammed the table, stood up and left the lobby angrily.
He and Elder Yun are fellow disciples and they have a very good relationship.
He was undoubtedly the most angry about the death of Elder Yun.
Elder Qingsong didn't say anything about this.
From a personal perspective, he definitely hopes to avenge Elder Yun.
But rationally speaking, he cannot act on impulse.
The entire Divine Sword Sect's disciples, their families, and a large number of affiliated martial arts forces, the population number is as large as millions.
Once a war breaks out, the consequences will be too serious.
Golden Collar Valley.
It is located at the junction of Hechen County and Yuanyu County.
It was autumn at this time, and the red-scaled trees on the surrounding hills were bright red, which was extremely spectacular.
The valley was filled with red miasma.
Several figures were gathering outside the red miasma.
"Master, the people from the Divine Sword Sect are here again. Do you want to send someone to meet them?"
A man fell from the sky and came in front of them.
"Humph, you are such a waste. How can you let so many people escape? Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many troubles."
A figure suddenly walked out from the red miasma. It was an old man with a stern face and black beard.
The expressions of the several celestial beings present all became respectful, "Greetings, Old Ancestor."
This is one of the two celestial beings of the Wei family.
The strongest one is even a celestial being of the upper celestial level.
Among the many heavenly-level family forces in Taiwu Dao, the Wei family can definitely be ranked among the top three.
And within the Divine Sword Sect, it is second to none.
"Since the Divine Sword Sect already knows about this, then we'll give them two choices. If they know what's good for them and are willing to keep things quiet, then we'll just pretend nothing happened. If they want to start a war, then we'll just take over the Divine Sword Sect's territory."
The old man with black beard said calmly.
If there were no rules set by the higher-ups that forbid arbitrarily seizing the territories of local forces in the mortal world, let alone wanton killing, there would be no place for the Divine Sword Sect to stand.
However, if the Divine Sword Sect takes the initiative to start a war this time, it will give the Wei family sufficient reason.
"Yes."
Just as the celestial being was about to go back, suddenly a light voice was heard.
"The ancestor of the Wei family is really arrogant."
"Who?"
The old man with black beard looked cold and shouted.
"I am here to seek justice on behalf of the Divine Sword Sect."
The figure chuckled, and suddenly the sky changed color. The terrifying sword intent filled the air, and countless sword energies gathered together to form a vast river of sword energy.
“Top astronomical phenomenon.”
The black-bearded old man's face changed drastically, and the powerful celestial martial spirit in his body emanated, protecting the several Wei family celestial beings present.
However, the river of sword energy in the sky crushed down and instantly defeated his celestial-level martial will, and then the rolling river of sword energy surrounded these Wei family celestial beings and ancestors.
"Your Wei family killed a celestial being from the Divine Sword Sect. Then I will kill two of your Wei family members and collect some interest. That should be reasonable, right?"
As the figure spoke, the terrifying river of sword energy suddenly gathered and instantly tore through the defense constructed by the black-bearded old man.
The next moment, two sword energies swept past, and two heads flew up.
噗噗
The remaining few people, including the old man from the Wei family, were vomiting blood.
Li Qian showed up, wearing a gray robe and an ordinary bamboo hat, and came to the side of the red miasma.
From what he could sense, this place was shrouded in a formation, which was obviously an ancient relic.
He guessed that the reason why the Wei family attacked the gods of the Divine Sword Sect was that they were afraid that the situation of this ancient relic would be leaked out.
It can be seen that the origin of this ancient relic must be extraordinary.
Li Qian’s spiritual consciousness penetrated and captured the fluctuations of the formation.
Soon, he determined that this formation was obviously from the Taishan Formation Record.
He conducted in-depth research on the Taishan Formation Record, and even drew on it for reference in his own Qianyuan Formation Classic.
So he moved and entered the red miasma.
As for the river of sword energy outside, it did not dissipate, and it suppressed the Wei family's celestial-level celestial being and several other celestial beings.
They were extremely angry when they saw the two of their own celestial beings whose heads were chopped off by the sword energy, but they were also filled with a sense of powerlessness.
The enemy who claimed to be seeking justice for the Divine Sword Sect was too strong.
I’m afraid that if their other ancestor comes, even if they join forces, they won’t be a match.
"How could the Divine Sword Sect have top-level celestial phenomena?"
The old man with black beard wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, with an expression of disbelief on his cold face.
Suddenly, he had an idea. Could this person also be a member of the Dao Sect?
Otherwise, there is no way to explain how such a powerful top-level celestial being could exist in a local sect.
The barrier of the human world has been closed for less than three years. In such a short period of time, even if there are top local celestial beings who break through to the celestial phenomenon, they can only be primary celestial phenomena at most.
It is impossible for top-level astronomical phenomena to exist.
Moreover, the fact that the other party dared to kill his Wei family’s people showed that he was very confident.
Suddenly, he saw the man in the bamboo hat actually walked in front of the red miasma, and his face became even uglier.
"Damn it! He killed my Wei family members and wanted to steal this relic."
The reason why his Wei family's people suddenly attacked the two celestial beings from the Divine Sword Sect was to prevent the ruins from being leaked out.
This relic was found by the ancestor of the Wei family based on clues from an ancient book. It was said to have been left by a ghost saint from ancient times.
That ghost saint was said to have cultivated to the level of a supreme saint, but he disappeared later. It was also rumored that he had overcome his inner demon calamity and entered the realm of immortality.
Of course, all this is hearsay.
Whether it is true or not, it is unknown.
In the red miasma, Li Qian entered step by step, avoiding all the formation restrictions, and successfully arrived at the entrance of a stone cave.
"Ghost Valley Cave."
Li Qian looked at the name on the entrance of the cave and touched his chin. This name is a bit mysterious.
However, the formation outside actually comes from the Taishan Formation Record.
With his current attainment in formation, it would be a bit troublesome to break it completely, but it would not be a big problem for him to enter and exit the formation.
There is no one in charge of controlling the formation here. It runs passively, so there is no risk to Li Qian.
He waved his hand and a stream of sword energy shot out, causing the stone door to collapse, revealing a cave entrance inside.
Li Qian walked straight in.
There is no formation inside.
The outer formation is just to prevent people from entering.
It's very simple inside.
The space is not particularly large.
There was a figure sitting cross-legged on a stone bed.
Obviously, this is the owner of the cave.
I don’t know how many years he has been dead.
What's strange is that the owner of the cave did not turn into a mummy or a skeleton. He still looks as lifelike as a living person.
But when he reached out and touched it gently, the body suddenly turned into ashes, leaving only a jade slip in the ashes.
Li Qian looked surprised. Is there no storage device?
He was a little disappointed.
Normally, if there are storage devices, it means there are good things.
Since this person has no storage device, he may not be the owner of this cave. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the jade slip in his hand, sensing it with his spiritual consciousness.
boom!
In an instant, his consciousness was sucked in and he saw a strange scene: an old man in sackcloth clothes and with a very long beard.
"I have passed the inner demon tribulation and entered the realm of immortality. I have left the divine method I have cultivated for those who are destined to remember. The divine method originated from the inner demon. The deeper the cultivation, the more causally involved with the inner demon. If you are not determined to pursue the way of immortality, do not touch it. Once you touch it, there will be no way back."
In a trance, Li Qian heard the words left by the old man in hemp clothes.
Immediately afterwards, the old man in hemp clothes disappeared, and was replaced by a ball of distorted light that seemed to contain some secret.
Hidden in that distorted light is a method of refining the soul.
"It's actually a soul-refining method, and it's so dangerous?"
Li Qian was shocked.
Judging from the information left by the old man in hemp clothes, it seems that only by refining the spirit can one have a chance to pursue immortality.
In other words, if you don't practice the soul-refining method, you will never have a chance.
He also discovered the problem. Over the years, his own spiritual understanding had not improved at all after absorbing the essence of the fox demon's evil thoughts.
In this case, even if he achieves the status of a saint in the future, his Yuanshen cannot be trained into a Yangshen. In this way, he will never be able to enter the higher level of immortality.
Li Qian's spiritual consciousness moved, and he withdrew from the jade slip and did not continue to look into the distorted light.
Once you touch that ball of distorted light, there is no turning back.
So he didn't dare to touch it for the time being. He had to understand the method of refining the soul well before he could make the next decision.
Li Qian looked at the jade slip in his hand, took a deep breath, and immediately turned around and left the cave.
Outside the cave, the river of sword energy was still suppressing the several celestial beings of the Wei family.
Although Li Qian only displayed the strength of a top-level celestial phenomenon, it would be easy for him to suppress a primary celestial phenomenon.
Li Qian waved his hand, and the terrifying river of sword energy immediately dispersed.
The black-bearded old man from the Wei family breathed a sigh of relief. He was suppressed by the terrifying celestial sword intent. The feeling of oppression was too strong.
"Don't you know your friend's name?"
He looked at Li Qian who was wearing a bamboo hat and asked in a deep voice.
This person came out of the ancient ruins. Could he have taken away the things inside?
"Do you recognize this?"
Li Qian suddenly took out a jade token.
The black-bearded old man looked at the jade token and was stunned for a moment. Then his whole body trembled and a look of horror appeared on his face. "Elder, the elder's jade token."
"The Divine Sword Sect has a connection with my master, so he sent me here to handle this matter. You should know what to do, right?"
Li Qian said calmly.
Before he came, he had already used the white fox's natural maze to secretly control a celestial being from the Wei family and investigated the Wei family's background.
The Wei family can only be regarded as a small Karami within Dao Sect.
The strongest is the upper celestial phenomenon.
He is already very old and doesn't have many years left to live.
This old man with black beard is called Wei Cheng, and he was promoted to the celestial being only in recent decades.
The status of the Wei family in Dao Sect is equivalent to that of ordinary inner disciples in the Divine Sword Sect.
There is no Martial Saint backing him up.
With this elder's jade token, it is enough to subdue the Wei family.
The black-bearded old man Wei Cheng said respectfully, "I understand. Please rest assured, senior brother, I will handle this matter properly right away."
He never imagined that a martial saint-level elder was involved behind a small local sect.
Li Qian moved, flew into the air, and soon disappeared.
After Li Qian left, the black-bearded old man Wei Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. He had no doubt that the other party did not kill him because he was still a disciple of Dao Sect.
Yuanyu County.
Weijiabao.
This was originally the castle of a martial arts family, but after the Wei family arrived, they spent money and forcibly bought the castle.
Moreover, in the past two years, the Wei family has been engaged in large-scale construction in the surrounding areas, building large spiritual fields, medicinal gardens, breeding farms and other infrastructure.
Feng Shaoyu sat on the bench in the living room for several hours, and no one from the Wei family came to negotiate.
He was angry, but also felt cold.
If this continues, a war between the Divine Sword Sect and the Wei Family will be inevitable.
Suddenly, footsteps were heard from outside, followed by several people walking in.
The leader was a middle-aged man in a blue robe with a dignified demeanor. Just a glance at Feng Shaoyu made him inexplicably feel a strong sense of oppression.
"This is definitely a top-level celestial being."
Feng Shaoyu was shocked.
Because he could never feel such strong pressure from Elder Qingsong.
The other few people also put a lot of pressure on him. They were definitely celestial beings, and much stronger than him.
Feng Shaoyu felt even colder in his heart. The few celestial beings from the Wei family who showed up were enough to easily suppress the celestial beings from the Divine Sword Sect.
There must be more talented people in the Wei family.
"Is this Elder Feng from the Divine Sword Sect?"
The middle-aged man in the blue robe bowed and said, "I am Wei Sheng, the head of the Wei family. Due to my busy schedule, I have not been able to spare the time. I am sorry to have kept Elder Feng waiting for a long time."
Feng Shaoyu was surprised. The head of the Wei family actually showed up in person?
"Master Wei, I came here for only one thing."
Although he was facing a lot of psychological pressure, Feng Shaoyu knew that he came here on behalf of the Divine Sword Sect and naturally could not weaken his momentum, so he spoke in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.
"Elder Feng, I have already sent people to verify what you said, and it is true. For the death of your sect's supreme elder, my Wei family deeply apologizes."
Wei Sheng, the head of the Wei family, said: "So my Wei family is willing to give out two Tianren Pills and ten Yuanshi as compensation, hoping to resolve the grievances between our two families."
As he said that, he took out another box and pushed it in front of Feng Shaoyu.
Feng Shaoyu looked at the wooden box in front of him and was shocked.
The Wei family’s reaction was really weird.
He was so indifferent before, but now his attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees.
Not only did he admit to killing the celestial being from the Divine Sword Sect, he also took out two celestial pills and Yuanshi as compensation.
Feng Shaoyu knew how precious the Tianren Pill was.
The reason why the Divine Sword Sect was able to give birth to a second celestial being was because the Zhenwu Temple exchanged that treasure bone-level genius for a celestial being pill.
As for the Yuanshi, he had only seen records of it in the classics of the Divine Sword Sect, and had never seen the real thing.
something wrong.
There must be something wrong.
Feng Shaoyu didn't believe that the Wei family would compromise so easily.
"Moreover, two celestial beings from my Wei family have already paid for the life of your Elder Yun. Elder Feng, you should now believe in the sincerity of my Wei family, right?"
Patriarch Wei thought that Elder Feng of the Divine Sword Sect was dissatisfied, so he sighed and said.
As he said this, he waved his hand, and immediately someone came in carrying two stretchers.
There were two bodies lying on stretchers.
"Is this the celestial being of your Wei family?"
Feng Shaoyu looked at the body on the stretcher and was a little confused.
Would the Wei family be so self-aware as to let two celestial beings pay with their lives?
"Elder Feng, the two of them died at the hands of the master behind your Divine Sword Sect. How could this be false?"
Wei Sheng, the head of the Wei family, said while suppressing his inner anger.
The Wei family definitely suffered heavy losses this time.
Two celestial beings died, and two celestial pills were compensated.
The ten Yuan stones are also very precious.
The most important thing is that the ancient ruins suspected to be the home of a ghost saint were also handed over to someone else.
"Died at the hands of the master behind my Divine Sword Sect?"
Feng Shaoyu was stunned for a moment, then he realized, could it be that the ancestor had taken action?
That's certainly the case.
Otherwise, how could the Wei family be so arrogant at first and respectful later?
At this moment, Feng Shaoyu's heart was filled with joy, and his original uneasiness turned into strong confidence.
Even a powerful celestial-level family like the Wei family had to surrender, so you can imagine how powerful the ancestor was.
"Master Wei, I'm not doubting you, I just hope that similar things won't happen again in the future, so as not to affect the relationship between our two families."
Feng Shaoyu felt relieved and spoke immediately.
"What Elder Feng said is true. I will control the people of the Wei family from now on."
The head of the Wei family was very humble.
With his status and strength, an ordinary celestial being is nothing.
But who could blame the fact that there is a Taoist elder standing behind this Divine Sword Sect?
In Dao Sect, even an ordinary Martial Saint is not qualified to serve as an elder.
At least a high-level martial saint.
Such an existence cannot be provoked by the Wei family, let alone those families that possess a Martial Saint.
"That's great. I'll take my leave now."
After Feng Shaoyu checked the contents of the wooden box, he stood up and said.
As he said this, he picked up the wooden box, turned and walked out of the hall.
The head of the Wei family personally escorted Feng Shaoyu to the gate of the mansion. Until Feng Shaoyu flew into the air, his face suddenly became extremely gloomy.
When had his Wei family ever suffered such a humiliation?
The other few celestial beings of the Wei family also looked unhappy.
Unfortunately, no matter how angry they were, it was useless. Faced with absolute strength, they had no choice but to surrender, just like those local martial arts forces that they had once oppressed.
"Give them both a good burial and compensate their descendants."
Wei Sheng, the head of the Wei family, looked at the sky in the distance, pondered for a moment, and then sighed.
