Chapter 462: Lord Devouring Lecture Hall, Two Visions
Shi Nandang was in the formation, chanting spells in his hands non-stop, looking towards the Xianjian Sword with a look full of worry.
The Xianjian Sword has been unruly and rampant these days, and the seven gods are unable to control it. Now that Li Hao has taken over, he is naturally worried.
After all, although Li Hao has good talent, he is only at the Nascent Soul stage. If his strength is not enough and something goes wrong in the formation, he cannot afford it.
Xianjian was still struggling, and it seemed to be three times more violent than before. This made his heart skip a beat, and his eyes unconsciously looked towards Li Hao.
But Li Hao was also looking at the Xianjian Sword, his eyes... were full of curiosity, amusement, and eager to try.
He was wondering in his heart, then he saw Li Hao's eyes suddenly become calm and his face serious, as if he was concentrating on operating the formation and refining the magic sword.
Xianjian seemed to be a little tired and fell into a brief calm.
Shi Nandang was slightly delighted. He ignored Li Hao's gaze, danced with his fingers, and used magic spells to try to push the Xianjian Sword back into the crater.
What he didn't know was that the key to suppressing the Xianjian Sword was no longer in this formation, but in Zheng Fa's sea of consciousness.
……
"how?"
Looking at the sword spirit trapped in his sea of consciousness, Zheng Fa's eyes were smiling but his tone was leisurely.
The reason for asking the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor for the secret method was naturally to be on the safe side.
Playing tricks is certainly effective, but it also has risks - conspiracies and tricks can never make up for the gap in strength.
He is only a Nascent Soul, and the position of Xianjian is the same as that of a True Immortal, so the difference in cultivation is even greater.
Zheng Fa had no choice but to be cautious.
"I...you said you want to keep one of us?" the sword spirit asked in a childish voice, "Any one of us will do?"
"I will keep the one who offers the most useful secret method and is willing to obey me." Zheng Fa paused, looked at the sword spirit, and said, "As the original sword spirit, you have the strongest control over the Xianjian Sword, so I naturally prefer you the most."
A hint of excitement flashed across the sword spirit's young face, but he pursed his lips and his eyes suddenly changed.
"Do you know our origins?"
The old man's voice suddenly sounded.
"Of course I know." Zheng Fa looked at the sword spirit with a sigh in his eyes, "The Tianjiao of all generations of Tianhe Sect, the former sword master of Xianxian Sword..."
"You! Really! Know!"
The old man spoke each word with great emphasis, and each word seemed to be filled with blood and tears, and also seemed to be filled with hatred.
The one he hated was naturally not Zheng Fa in front of him, but the ancestor of the Xianjian lineage.
The woman's voice sounded, sad and desperate: "Back then, when I was in control of the Xianjian Sword, I thought that it was the Grandmaster's mercy that gave me such a great chance to be an immortal... I never expected, I never expected..."
"Grandmaster, you deceived us so much!"
Zheng Fa also sighed in his heart.
This is also the reason why Sect Leader Tianhe Yan is so determined to rebel: if he hadn't been awakened by the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor and continued to practice, he and these sword spirit personalities would probably have ended up the same.
The Tianhe sect does not have any fundamental Dafa.
In other words, the four ancestors of the Tianhe Sect cannot control or even absorb the cultivation results of their disciples like other Daoguo cultivators.
Even they themselves are unable to act independently and are unable to escape the bondage of the Four Swords of Zhu Xian.
Zheng Fa also had some guesses on this point:
If Venerable Tianhe was here, they probably wouldn't be so embarrassed. After all, the Four Swords of Zhu Xian were practiced by Venerable Tianhe, and the Tianhe Law was created by him. He would not leave several disciples with no way forward.
But these disciples rebelled.
Therefore, Tianhe Method is actually an imperfect method.
The Tai Shang Dao Yang Shen then achieved corpse transformation.
The Tianhe Sect came to an abrupt end only after the fusion.
Simply put, the academic leader is gone and research is forced to be interrupted.
This resulted in the fact that although the four ancestors wielded the Four Swords of Zhu Xian, they were unable to transcend or practice.
Although he was strong, his future was hopeless.
But the fact that these four people were accepted as disciples by Venerable Tianhe was definitely not ordinary people.
They found another way that was slow but very effective: find a host, have it sacrifice and refine the Xianjian, and eventually absorb its cultivation and insights...
After all, the Tianhe Sect is one of the five sects, attracting talented practitioners from all over the world.
The cultivator who can successfully transform into a god and wield the four swords is the most talented person among all the cultivators in the Xuanwei Realm.
With the help of their wisdom and cultivation, the four ancestors of the past hundreds of thousands of years are almost completing this strange path to transcendence.
Naturally, the spiritual consciousness of all the successive masters of the Xianjian Sword was sealed in this Xianjian Sword, making the Xianjian Sword spirit look like a schizophrenic.
The old man asked again: "How can you bear to let our souls fly away?"
"Are you still inseparable?"
"..."
The sword spirit was silent for a moment, obviously unable to speak.
As the original sword spirit, she naturally didn't want to become a psychopath.
Even the few hosts that were refined in later, all of them were extremely proud, and were sword cultivators, so most of them would rather break than bend.
Now we are trapped together, it's really depressing.
Zheng Fa's words immediately touched their hearts.
After a long silence, the old man's voice sighed again: "Well, it's not a bad thing to be able to get rid of it. I'll do as you say!"
After saying that, Xianjian Sword Spirit pointed her little hand, and a stream of light containing a secret technique fell into Zheng Fa's sea of consciousness.
Then, as if they had discussed it beforehand, the several personalities trapped in the Immortal Sword Spirit seemed to have accepted their fate and each of them took out a secret technique.
……
Zheng Fa closed his eyes and read the secret methods they gave one by one, seeming to be somewhat obsessed.
"…Which one do you choose?"
"This "Tongming Sword Technique"..." Zheng Fa's tone was hesitant, as if he was moved.
The old man asked anxiously, "How is it? This is the most profound sword-controlling method in our Tianhe Sect!"
“Not strong enough!”
"……what?"
"Although you have incorporated the idea of the Blood Sword into it and want to plant a blood curse on my body, if you encounter someone who is good at magic skills, they will be able to break it in one go and use it to counter you. It would be better if you could add some methods to control the soul."
"..."
“Good idea, but needs improvement!”
After saying this, Zheng Fa looked at Jian Ling twice, his eyes showing some regret for him.
The Xianjian Sword Spirit's expression kept changing, as if he was rapidly switching between personalities, but each personality couldn't utter a word and just stared blankly at Zheng Fa.
Zheng Fa seemed to be interested. He said to the sword spirit:
"Speaking of which, this magic weapon, Master Devourer, also has some good secrets."
The woman's voice came from the sword spirit's mouth: "Not a bad secret method?"
"Yes, just like you. The idea behind the Tongyou Lianbao Jue you gave me is quite good. You want to hide your divine consciousness in my sea of consciousness so that you can take my place in the future and become the host."
"But you didn't do one thing right. Your divine consciousness is too obvious. It's easy for me to find it. In the Demon Sect Era, there is a "Dao Heart Planting Magic" that is worth your reference..."
“If you change it and incorporate this technique, I’m afraid many people will be tempted.”
"..."
"'Tao Heart Planting Magic'? Isn't this one of the supreme secrets of the Demon Sect? My Tianhe Sect doesn't even have this kind of inheritance, how do you know?"
Zheng Fa smiled and kept silent.
Naturally it was taught by the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor.
But the expression on Xianjian Ling's face when he looked at Zheng Fa became more and more horrified.
"You... who the hell are you, old monster?"
Zheng Fa did not answer, and continued in the tone of commenting on homework:
"And that guy, yes, the original sword spirit, your 'Purple Mansion Sword Cultivation Method' is not very good. It's too obvious. Anyone who sees it will know that you are going to pierce my purple mansion with a sword."
“Fail.”
"..."
Xianjian Sword Spirit blinked his eyes, and tears welled up in his eyes. He didn't know if it was out of grievance or fear.
Zheng Fa reviewed the secrets they submitted one by one, and his tone was full of regret:
"No wonder you were trapped in such a situation by the Immortal Sword Master..."
"..."
“You still have to learn!”
Xianxian Sword Spirit was hit hard, and couldn't help but sit down in Zheng Fa's sea of consciousness and started crying:
"I just said I can't help it!"
"The monks... the monks are so scary!"
Zheng Fa also shook his head slightly.
Although he didn't know much about the Xianjian Sword, the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor and the Tianhe Sect Leader knew differently.
One of these two is a friend of Venerable Tianhe, and he even witnessed the creation of the Xianjian Sword with his own eyes.
One is the head of Tianhe Sect. After the death of Venerable Tianhe, he knows the most about the secret history of the sect.
Zheng Fa has a complete understanding of the Xianjian Sword from ancient times to the present, inside and out.
These people were the nourishment of the founder of Tianhe Sect, but when they arrived at Haori Mountain, they were suppressed.
How can your vision compare to Zheng Fa’s?
Now that Zheng Fa had made some comments, he naturally became even more desperate.
"you you……"
The old man's voice was also trembling, but he couldn't speak.
Zheng Fa was well versed in these secret methods, and he even brought forth new ideas and cited extensive evidence, which was truly terrifying.
What was even more frightening was the way he gave sincere comments and suggestions for revisions - all of a sudden, he felt that these little tricks of his and others were just like the tricks of a three-year-old child, just to make people laugh.
There was only fear in my heart, and I couldn't muster any thoughts.
"I know you don't want to die." Zheng Fa suddenly said again.
The sword spirit was startled and looked at Zheng Fa blankly.
"It's understandable that cultivators seek immortality." Zheng Fa's tone was sincere, "But as I said, being trapped in the sword and unable to escape is more terrible than death, isn't it?" "...Who among us wants to live like this? But how can we be willing to die like this?" The old man suddenly shouted, "I'm not willing to die like this, how can you understand?"
"In this dark and gloomy day trapped in the Immortal Sword!"
"The years of suppression on Haori Mountain!"
"It feels like being burned in flames every day."
"How can you understand?"
Zheng Fa listened and nodded, then suddenly asked, "So... do you want to take revenge on the founder of the Xianxian lineage?"
"..."
The Xianjian Sword Spirit, who was sitting on the ground, suddenly looked up and looked at Zheng Fa.
"revenge?"
"He wants to transcend, so we prevent him from doing so."
"You can do it?"
"With the Xianjian Sword, I can at least help."
Zheng Fa's words came more and more from the heart. Although he and Sect Leader Yan both wanted the other to take the blame, they would all prosper together and suffer together. He had the Xianjian Sword and was powerful, so it was naturally a good thing for Sect Leader Yan's arrangement.
The expression of Xianjian Ling kept changing, as if he was in a dilemma.
But then I heard Zheng Fa say: "Believe it or not, I have given you the choice."
There was gradually some determination in the eyes of Xianjian Ling.
Zheng Fa was not surprised.
These sword spirits have no choice in their personalities. They can't trick him, they will die anyway.
Now they might be able to strike back at the founder of Xianxian, so it was impossible for these people not to be tempted:
Sect Leader Yan hasn't even been refined into a sword spirit yet, but his desire to rebel is already burning in full swing.
This group of people really suffered a great loss.
……
Zheng Fa held the position for about ten days, but was also replaced.
He was only a Nascent Soul, and his cultivation was far from sufficient to control the formation for a long period of time, so he only rested for thirteen or fourteen days each time.
The Xianjian calmed down, and Shi Nandang and his seven companions had some strength left, so they let Zheng Fa go down the mountain.
After a few days, Shi Nandang looked at the Xianjian sword in the belly of the mountain with some confusion in his eyes:
"Why is this Xianjian so well behaved today?"
At the side, the skinny god nodded gently: "He was not so arrogant a few days ago, but these few days... he has even taken the initiative. Maybe he is tired?"
Shi Nandang frowned, unable to think of an answer.
But as a spirit being, it was natural that he couldn't figure out the true meaning of a treasure like the Xianjian. He just looked at the Xianjian that was tactfully trapped in the flames and was really puzzled:
A few days ago, you were like a divine beast, Kunpeng, flapping your wings to fly, trying desperately to run.
How come you look like a farm chicken now?
As if noticing his gaze, the Xianjian moved and drilled into the belly of the mountain quietly, sometimes turning over with the changes in the formation.
There is a kind of clever girl who not only wants to stew herself, but also takes the initiative to cover the pot.
……
What Shi Nandang didn't know was that Xianxianjian wasn't the only one who liked to be burned.
"Junior brother! It's my turn!"
Senior Sister Yuan strode into Zheng Fa's yard with her head held high, full of anticipation, and threw a storage bag to Zheng Fa.
"This is?"
"The reward given to you by Senior Sister!"
Zheng Fa weighed the storage bag, but did not open it. He just smiled and said:
"Senior sister, are you anxious?"
“Of course I’m in a hurry!” Senior Sister Yuan nodded vigorously and muttered, “That little Golden Crow is almost in the middle stage of the Golden Core! If I don’t get burned soon, won’t I be caught up by the little Golden Crow?”
Zheng Fa laughed secretly in his heart:
The Big Sun True Fire has the effect of evolving bloodlines, and it is extremely tempting to Senior Sister Yuan and Little Golden Crow.
Zheng Fa was naturally happy to help them -
First of all, it can enhance the strength of Jiushan Sect.
Secondly, this is also a kind of research on monsters, which is very helpful for the final completion of his "Transformations of Tiangang and Disha".
After burning these two, he also has to help Uncle Huang, Uncle Pang and other Yuanying to revise the "Tian Gang Di Sha Transformations", which is really a big project.
That is to say, Zheng Fa's current cultivation level is achieved by absorbing the energy of the ancestor.
Most of the chores were left to the fortune teller.
Now I have time.
Little Golden Crow was the first to be burned——
His cultivation level is the lowest, so the process is the simplest.
This Golden Crow itself is extremely compatible with the Big Sun True Fire, so naturally the effect is good.
A few days ago, not only did he successfully form a golden elixir, but it even seemed that he had awakened a little bit of the Demon King's bloodline and rushed straight to the middle stage of the golden elixir!
This made Senior Sister Yuan anxious.
"It's fine that you, my junior brother, came from behind, but you can't be called Little Golden Crow!"
Senior Sister Yuan gritted her teeth and said, with a rare fighting spirit on her face.
"Are the news and interviews arranged?"
"Alright! A few new disciples are in charge, and the results are pretty good!"
Senior Sister Yuan nodded her head vigorously.
Senior Sister Yuan was ranked at the back, naturally because Zheng Fa was not confident in his own skills, so he took the Little Golden Crow to test the waters.
Secondly, this senior sister’s bloodline is evolving, so there is a high probability that she will have to sleep for a long time.
But now she is the top anchor of Jiushan, and the burden is heavy, so she delayed it for another half a year and trained a group of new disciples who could replace her as the host.
Zheng Fa also intends to cultivate a group of journalism talents: Tongjian is becoming more and more popular, and the programs in Jiushan Entertainment seem to be insufficient, and naturally some fresh blood is needed.
Seeing that Senior Sister Yuan had made all the arrangements, Zheng Fa nodded slightly, and the Great Sun True Fire condensed in the air and turned into a furnace.
The flame flowed inside like water. Senior Sister Yuan shrank her head, seeming to be a little scared, but she gritted her teeth, transformed into a blue phoenix, and jumped into the cauldron.
"It's so itchy!"
"It's normal to feel itchy." Zheng Fa said seriously, "Bloodline evolution is the time when your demon body is reorganized. From the perspective of Little Golden Crow, you may also gain some inheritance!"
"Calm your mind and circulate your spiritual power!"
Qingluan seemed to know that now was not the time to act up, and nodded its head, beginning to feel the changes in its body.
Zheng Fa controlled the Big Sun True Fire and carefully enveloped Senior Sister Yuan.
More than half a month later, Zheng Fa's face turned pale.
Making Senior Sister Yuan's bloodline evolve is indeed a very delicate job. Even with Zheng Fa's soul, it is quite exhausted at this moment.
"Junior brother...I, I want to sleep."
"Ok?"
Zheng Fa was delighted and said to Senior Sister Yuan: "This is a good thing!"
"Junior brother, you... you wait for me to wake up."
Zheng Fa was stunned for a moment and looked at Senior Sister Yuan.
Then I heard Sister Yuan say intermittently:
"The old man is in seclusion, and so is my senior sister... I bought some snacks, but couldn't find anyone to eat with, so I had to come to your place." Senior Sister Yuan was in a daze and seemed to be extremely sleepy.
"If I fall asleep, you... you will have no one to play with."
"Wait until I wake up..."
"If you're...if you're bored and there's no one to talk to, there are snacks I bought in the storage bag I gave you...eat slowly, I'll wake up when you're done."
Zheng Fa remained silent, watching Senior Sister Yuan's head gradually drooping as she struggled unwillingly before falling into a deep sleep. Suddenly, he chuckled.
He moved his fingers slightly, and the Xuanguanjian flew out, covering Senior Sister Yuan.
Zheng Fa did not move Senior Sister Yuan to another place. He just sat next to her and practiced slowly.
The peach tree in the yard bloomed five times and bore fruit five times.
Thunder roared.
"Junior brother! I have formed a baby!"
Senior Sister Yuan’s chattering voice was heard.
"Senior Sister, I left this for you."
"what?"
"Peach preserves."
"good to eat!"
The peach tree in the yard bloomed three times and bore fruit three times. Senior Sister Yuan was tired of eating the fresh peaches, peach preserves, and peach pits.
"Junior brother, when will Senior Sister wake up?"
"do not know."
"Junior brother, can you burn me again?"
"..."
"If I sleep a little longer, maybe I'll see Senior Sister when I open my eyes!" Senior Sister Yuan fantasized, "No, no, maybe if I sleep a little longer, I can become a spirit before Senior Sister!"
"..."
Zheng Fa glanced at Senior Sister Yuan who was having a whimsical thought. If he could burn out a spirit, why didn’t he burn himself?
Senior Sister Yuan seemed to think that her dream was a little too beautiful. She looked up at the courtyard where Senior Sister Zhang was in seclusion and murmured, "Junior Brother, I miss you so much..."
"..."
Senior Sister Yuan is like Zheng Fa. In fact, apart from Senior Sister Zhang, the person she is closest to in the sect is Old Man Yuan. Now the two of them are in seclusion together... This little bird is naturally lonely.
"There's movement in Senior Sister's yard!"
Zheng Fa suddenly stood up, looked towards Senior Sister Zhang's yard, then suddenly turned back and looked in another direction.
"Old man!"
Senior Sister Yuan also sensed something was wrong, turned around and looked over there, shouting loudly.
Zheng Fa also didn't expect that within just one day, both Senior Sister Zhang and the old man seemed to have breakthroughs!
