Chapter 309 The deep bond between Banque and the Imperial Beast Sect
"No one knows the outcome, but after the battle ended, the painter seemed to have a high opinion of the shadow."
"After the painter became an Earth Immortal, it is said that he still couldn't forget the shadow. Perhaps, in his opinion, the only shadow in this world could be his opponent."
As he spoke, Pu Shan raised his head and looked around. Although the space around him was empty, he still said, "Yes, Shadow."
"I said, I am Banque, not a shadow."
Pu Shan smiled and said, "I am afraid that even the painters in heaven and earth can't achieve such an easy way of moving the void. If you are not a shadow, who else could you be?"
Banque said no more.
Jiang Xiaoyu looked at Pu Shan angrily, "What happened next?"
"Later, Sanyi chased the shadow. When faced with people's doubts, he revealed that the shadow was Sansan."
"After the death of Master Mind, there has been no more rumors about shadows in the world. This secret was once recorded in the Sutra Pavilion of Tianbei Temple. If Tianbei Temple had not been destroyed, I would still be able to do it now.
Find the original."
"But didn't he just say that his name was not Shadow?"
"I don't believe it." Pu Shan shook his head, "His magical power and recognition are too high."
Jiang Xiaoyu was speechless for a moment, but suddenly felt some slight movements from Chuxue beside him.
He quickly looked towards Chuxue, and Chuxue just opened his eyes.
"Chu Xue, are you awake? How are you?" Jiang Xiaoyu grabbed Chu Xue's hands.
Chuxue slowly sat up with Jiang Xiaoyu's support, "It shouldn't be a big deal."
She raised her head and looked at Pu Shan, "I was confused just now. I seemed to hear you talking about shadows?"
Jiang Xiaoyu patted Chuxue on the back and said, "You just woke up, you still need to have a good rest."
Chuxue acted as if she hadn't heard anything. Her eyes were looking around, "Senior Banque, is that you?"
There was a sudden ripple in the air, and a half-black figure slowly emerged, "Yun Manlou will be here in a short while, I just took a step ahead."
After saying that, his figure disappeared.
"Who is he?" Jiang Xiaoyu didn't expect that the shadow in Pu Shan's mouth was actually related to Chu Xue and Yun Man Lou.
Chuxue looked at Pu Shan, Pu Shan smiled and said, "I'll go take a look around."
When Pu Shan disappeared, Chu Xue coughed twice, and Banque's voice came in the air, "I won't listen, just say what you want to say."
After saying that, a vague barrier enveloped Jiang Xiaoyu and Chuxue.
"Xiaoyu, do you remember that he was the one who saved you when you were in the Four Symbols Sect?"
"of course I remember."
"This matter shouldn't have been hidden from you. I originally thought that I could tell you the matter when Dad is here and we are together. However, now Pu Shan has said the name Shadow, and you have just met him.
, I’ll take this opportunity to tell you.”
"Is the shadow really him?"
"That's not accurate..." Chu Xue was about to elaborate, but a look of pain flashed across her face. Jiang Xiaoyu understood that this must be because her body had not fully recovered.
"Forget it, let's rest for a while first!" Jiang Xiaoyu hugged Chu Xue's body. At this time, her body was cold, and she seemed to have become the soft and boneless little woman she once was.
"No." Chu Xue gently pushed Jiang Xiaoyu away and said solemnly: "We are about to face a demon cultivator, so it is very important to understand our own strength in advance."
Unable to resist Chu Xue, Jiang Xiaoyu nodded, "Okay, speak slowly, don't be anxious, I'll listen."
Chuxue sat up straight and said: "At that time, Pu Shan said that he was the shadow. This statement was actually correct. Banque was indeed a shadow during his lifetime."
The word "while alive?" is particularly harsh.
"It happened when Shadow was going through the tribulation. According to my father, Shadow failed to overcome the tribulation at that time. However, with his strength, he had no problem becoming an Earth Immortal. However, he forced himself to use himself when the heavenly tribulation was eliminated.
Magical power breaks the void."
"Breaking the void?"
"That's right!" Chuxue nodded, "He thinks that this way he can ascend to the immortal world in an alternative way. However, the laws of heaven are not so easy to change."
"When he broke through the void, the power of the catastrophe increased tenfold. It was precisely in the face of such an unprecedented catastrophe that his physical body was completely destroyed, and even his soul became dilapidated."
"Logically speaking, he should have fallen into reincarnation at this time. However, he still relied on his magical powers to escape the power of reincarnation. However, he no longer had a physical body and a complete soul. Even if
It was impossible to seize the body. Later, he gave himself a name: Banque. It actually means incomplete."
"You mean, what we saw just now was just a trace of his soul?"
Chuxue nodded, "You can say that."
Jiang Xiaoyu was immediately stunned. A ray of remnant soul could actually subdue a demon cultivator with just a raise of his hand. With this kind of strength, he might have become an earthly immortal.
"Then how did he get involved with the Beast Control Sect?"
"Because, currently, it seems that only the Beast Control Sect is most likely to give him what he wants."
"Huh?" Jiang Xiaoyu didn't understand how such a terrifying master could seek help from the Beast Control Sect.
"This is a deal, a deal with my father." Chuxue thought for a while, then slowly said: "He needs a body, a body that has been tempered by the tribulation. Only that kind of body can make him
Shelter."
"The only way to get a body like that is to find a person who has successfully ascended, and then occupy his remains."
"In his opinion, in today's world of cultivation, the only one with a chance to ascend quickly is the Beast Control Sect. When my father was twelve years old, they had already reached such a deal. He asked my father to change his name to Manchu
Lou, the meaning is that I hope he can follow his father's ascension and eventually become a complete self."
Hearing this, Jiang Xiaoyu was extremely shocked. He did not expect that Yun Manlou's name actually had such an origin.
"At that time, there were only a few people in the Beast Control Sect. It was precisely because of his help that the Beast Control Sect was able to reach what it is now step by step. Including the demon cultivators of the Beast Control Sect, if he hadn't been behind the scenes,
No matter how powerful it is, even the Beast Control Sect will definitely not be able to get into the eyes of the painter."
"But after getting along with him for many years, he gradually became my father's friend. It's just that this friend is never suitable to appear in front of others."
Chuxue looked into Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes, "Now, do you understand?"
"I understand." Jiang Xiaoyu nodded.
Chuxue smiled and said, "You still don't understand."
"Um?"
"I tell you Banque's origin not only to let you know his origin, but also to let you know that the bond between Banque and the Beast Control Sect is almost unbreakable, so you can trust him completely."
Trust is hard, trusting completely is even harder.
Jiang Xiaoyu deeply understood the weight of these four words, complete trust.
But it's right to think about it. Banque has been in this world for almost as long as the painter. Such a long time will definitely make his mind full of things.
And he persisted for such a long time because one day Yun Manlou could become an immortal. Only then could he take advantage of Yun Manlou's remains and fulfill his long-cherished wish.
This is probably the only tie he has in this world.
...
Sixiang Sect, Silingyuan.
"Celestial Master, do you really want to do this? The Beast Control Sect and I have sworn hatred!" Qiao Kaishan suddenly stood up, and the tea on the table next to him almost spilled on the floor.
Wen Zhiming pressed his hand, "The demon cultivator appears in this world, and once things get out of control, the entire world of cultivation will face a disaster. Under the overthrow of the nest, there are still eggs!"
"But?"
Lin Zhihuan cupped his hands and said: "There is no problem with the Heavenly Master's consideration. But now we have to face the reality that in front of the real demon cultivator, those below the peak of the Mahayana have almost no resistance."
"As for the monks at the pinnacle of the Mahayana, looking at the entire world of cultivation, there are you, Lu Haodang of Qinghongxuan, Yun Manlou of the Beast Control Sect, Dragon Subduing Vajra and Trinity Venerable of Chongnan Temple. Our internal battles are not
As I said, even if we resolve all our previous misunderstandings, you guys will still be stretched thin!"
Wen Zhiming nodded helplessly, "If the Earth Immortal hadn't taken action, the world of cultivation would have been doomed this time."
The words stopped suddenly, and the eyes of several people were instantly fixed in the direction of the window.
"Who? So fast!"
Ye Hongyi stood up first. At this moment, a red figure fell straight down from the sky, aiming at the window next to them.
"Bang!"
The man directly broke the window frame, and then Ye Hongyi caught him with quick eyes and hands.
Ji Quansheng's face was pale. When he saw those familiar faces, his face was full of panic, "Something...has happened in the mortal world!"
"What's up?"
"Where's Xiaowan?"
"Where's Lan Yue?"
When several people were about to ask questions, Ji Quansheng tilted his head and passed out.
Ye Hongyi quickly put her hand on his forehead, "The spiritual power in his body is almost exhausted, and his body seems to have been seriously injured not long ago!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Hongyi's body glowed with red light, and clearly visible spiritual power was poured directly into Ji Quansheng's body.
"Let me come!" Wen Zhiming took Ji Quansheng's hand, and then more than a dozen chess pieces flew out of his sleeves.
The chess pieces landed on several important acupuncture points on Ji Quansheng's body, and a stream of pure spiritual power was continuously transported towards the acupoints directly through these chess pieces.
About half an hour passed. Amidst the nervous expressions of several adults, Ji Quansheng finally opened his eyes again.
"Master! Master! Elder!" Ji Quansheng nervously grabbed the arms of Wen Zhiming and Ye Hongyi.
