Six hundred and tenth chapter seems to be an old friend
Having said this, Sheng Qingyun paused and continued.
"The former has a cultivation level in the middle stage of Nascent Soul and rarely fights with others, while Granny Gui has a cultivation base in the late stage of Nascent Soul. She controls a powerful will-o'-the-wisp and can refine the souls of monks for her own use."
Xu Chunniang nodded slightly. What Master Sheng said was almost the same as the news she had received.
Although Hunyuan Zhenren is only in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, he built Hunyuan City on his own and even formed an alliance with the evil cultivator of Wuwu Mountain, so he is definitely outstanding.
As for the ghost granny, it is said that she entered Taoism as a ghost and is moody. Together with the old monster of the blood baby, she is known as the double evil of yin and yang.
"Although that Granny Ghost is powerful, you control the strange fire and have restraint on evil cultivators, so you should be able to achieve miraculous effects.
At that time, I will hold back Master Hunyuan and buy you a chance. After you deal with the ghost mother-in-law, you can come and help me."
Xu Chunniang shook her head, "We are the only ones in the Xiaoyao Sect who have Nascent Soul cultivation. We need to leave one person to guard against the old monster Blood Infant that may appear at any time to ensure the safety of our fellow sects.
Please leave Master Hunyuan and Granny Ghost to me alone."
Sheng Qingyun thought for a moment and nodded, "This arrangement is indeed more secure, but you need to be more careful when dealing with two Nascent Soul evil cultivators at the same time."
"Master, don't worry. With the divine light of Yuanci protecting my body, it won't be that easy for those evil cultivators who want to hurt me."
Sheng Qingyun sighed with some relief, "I still remember the day you built the foundation. You built a golden Taoist platform that has been rare for hundreds of years. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of years have passed by. Now you have grown up and become the support of the sect.
Already."
"Uncle Master, I can't get to where I am today without the training of my sect."
Sheng Qingyun shook his head, "There are tens of thousands of disciples in the sect, but there are only a thousand who can build the foundation. Among these thousand foundation-building monks, there are even fewer who can form elixirs and condense infants.
Especially in recent years, the spiritual energy has gradually become thinner, and even the spiritual veins are showing signs of drying up..."
Speaking of this, a trace of worry flashed across her face.
The aura of heaven and earth is closely related to the ascetics, and these are not good signs.
"Master, do you know when the abnormal spiritual energy started?"
Sheng Qingyun thought for a moment and was not sure.
"It seems to have started one or two thousand years ago, maybe earlier. At the beginning, this change was very weak, and it slowly became apparent as time went by. Not only were the monks and monsters affected, but the growth rate of the elixir was also affected.
Slower and slower.”
Sheng Qingyun sighed, "At first, everyone thought that the spiritual energy between heaven and earth followed a certain law of change, decreasing and increasing. It was not until later that the spiritual energy became less and less that people paid attention to it.
The most obvious change brought about by the decrease in spiritual energy is that there are fewer and fewer high-level monks. The last time there were god-transforming monks was more than 2,000 years ago."
Xu Chunniang once thought that the spiritual energy disappeared because the small world of Qianluo Realm was heading for annihilation.
However, the spiritual energy in the sea cultivation world is abundant and there is no sign of spiritual energy weakening. This shows that the problem does not lie in the Qianluo world.
"Did anything special happen in the past two thousand years?"
Sheng Qingyun thought for a moment and shook his head.
"Two thousand years is too long, and too many things have happened. In the past hundred years alone, evil cultivators have emerged and subverted the five major sects that have existed for thousands of years. This is the biggest change."
The loss of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth makes practice more and more difficult, which is also the reason why there are more and more evil practices.
Evil cultivators are often overbearing and evil, plundering other people's cultivation essence and refining it for their own use. They advance very quickly, but they can easily go astray and explode to death.
Even so, many ascetics will still take desperate measures and turn to evil ways after losing hope.
For low-level monks, what they pursue is nothing more than powerful spells and long lifespan.
The so-called good and evil are just different choices. As long as the goal can be achieved, it doesn't matter if it is an evil practice that is despised by everyone.
Xu Chunniang was silent, but secretly determined in her heart that after solving the evil cultivator of Hunyuan Sect, she would investigate the reason why the spiritual energy disappeared.
Not long after seeing off Master Sheng, there was another knock on the door.
Her consciousness swept over the people outside the door, and Xu Chunniang had a look of surprise on her face.
It was her former friends, Huo Chunyan and Lin Yuxuan, who came to see her.
She was just thinking about whether to go find them, but she didn't expect the two of them to take the initiative.
After not seeing each other for so many years, the two people's faces no longer looked childish, replaced by calm and perseverance.
Perhaps it was because they were old friends who had not seen each other for many years and had become True Lord Nascent Soul when they met again. In addition to anticipation, there was also a bit of uneasiness in their eyes.
Xu Chunniang stood up and opened the door with a real smile on her face, "Long time no see."
Lin Yuxuan's nose felt sore and tears almost rolled down her face, "I didn't expect to be able to wait until you come back. It's so great!"
Huo Chunyan's eyes were also red, and she clenched her fist and punched her shoulder twice.
"You have been away for so many years, you are so cruel! They all said that you and Senior Brother Zhuge were killed together, but I always feel that you are not that easy to die!"
An apologetic look appeared on Xu Chunniang's face, "I've made you worry. It's not that I don't want to come back. It's just that I couldn't find my way home in the past years."
"If you ask me, you must have fallen into some secret realm and practiced there for many years, right?"
Huo Chunyan wiped her eyes and looked at her from bottom to top, "Tell me, what good food did you eat that made your cultivation level rise so fast?"
"Is it a secret place... I have indeed been to two of them. The experiences I have had over the years are really a long story. Are you sure you want to listen to me at the door?"
Huo Chunyan chuckled, took the lead in stepping into the door, and found a seat to sit down.
Seeing this, Lin Yuxuan also walked into the room and sat down next to her.
Xu Chunniang closed the door, and when she turned around, she accidentally caught a glimpse of the fine lines at the corners of Lin Yuxuan's eyes, and thousands of thoughts surged into her heart.
When I first met Lin Yuxuan, she was still an innocent little girl. Because she had a father who was Jin Danzhenren, she had a straightforward and simple temperament and was not familiar with worldly affairs.
When we met again, she was still bright and beautiful, but her cultivation in the foundation-building period had finally left traces on her body.
"Why are you dazed? Come and sit down quickly!"
Huo Chunyan raised her eyebrows dissatisfied, interrupting Xu Chunniang's meditation.
She smiled and shook her head. Chunyan was still so impatient. I thought she had calmed down a lot.
Xu Chunniang sat across from the two of them, took out a small table from the storage ring, and then took out a teapot and teacups and placed them on the table.
While making tea, she recounted her experiences over the years.
Huo Chunyan kept shaking her head when she heard this, and didn't even bother to drink the newly brewed spiritual tea.
"Did I hear you right? You need at least Jindan cultivation to go to the ruins of the Immortal Palace you mentioned?"
She also broke through to the Golden Core realm not long ago, and now she is only at the first level of the Golden Core.
Xu Chunniang nodded and affirmed, "You heard it right, without Jindan cultivation, even if you have the Immortal Palace Order, you will not be able to enter."
