Zhuang Wudao did not dare to neglect. After receiving the decree, he hurried to Xuanling Mountain without thinking much about it.
At this time, he was extremely casual with Master Jie Fa. Without any notification, he could go directly into the hall and meet Jie Fa.
When Zhuang Wudao arrived, Jie Fa was in the study room, drawing the talisman. However, he was obviously in a distracted state, and the talisman pen in his hand paused in mid-air. His white eyebrows were furrowed, as if he was doing something extremely difficult that required a lot of thinking.
Zhuang Wudao's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he bowed respectfully.
"I wonder, Master, why are you calling me?"
"Wudao? It came so fast."
Jiefa woke up with a start, and then looked over with solemn eyes: "Can you go down the mountain in the near future? Your senior brother is near Beining Country, I'm afraid there will be some trouble. A few days ago, there was still a letter of communication. But in the past six months, it has been a little bit
There is no news. After much thought, I can only ask Wu Dao to go and inquire about it."
"Beining Country?"
Zhuang Wudao was thinking about the information about Beining Country in his mind. It seemed that it was a small country south of the Zangxuan River, covering an area of three thousand miles and fourteen states.
However, because the land is close to the Xuan Dajiang River, the land is fertile, and shipping is convenient, so the people are extremely wealthy. The military equipment is also very powerful because of sufficient financial resources. The domestic royal family has two golden elixirs and more than thirty foundations. They are subordinates.
Lichen Sect's vassal state for nearly a thousand years is also Lichen's barrier to defend against the forces north of the Zangxuan River.
"But there are police in the north?"
"That's not—"
Jiefa shook his head, and then mused: "About ten years ago, a disciple of my Xuanling Mountain sect reported that there seemed to be many demon monks in the area south of the Zangxuan River, and blood sacrifices and evil refining occurred from time to time.
And it is very likely that someone from the Golden Core Realm was involved. At that time, your senior brother Lian Xiao happened to be free, so I sent him to the north to investigate. Because the matter is of great importance, it is
When the Li Chen Sect was in crisis a few years ago, he was not transferred back. However, in the past ten years, Lian Xiao had made little progress. On the contrary, several large cities of 200,000 people were massacred near the Zangxuan River, shocking the people in the north and south.
Zong, but they were unable to find out the truth. Until not long ago, Lian Xiao had accurate information and sent it back to the sect. But not long after that, the news was cut off."
Zhuang Wudao's heart sank slightly: "What about Senior Brother Lian?"
"Life should be fine. Lian Xiao is cautious and will send a soul lamp every three years. At this time, he should be trapped somewhere and unable to contact the master."
As if he had guessed what Zhuang Wudao was going to ask, Jie Fa flicked his sleeves, and a cold lamp appeared in front of the two of them.
A trace of soul fire burns inside and is still strong. This shows that the owner of the soul lamp is still alive and in good condition.
This is a method commonly used by cultivating sects to check the safety of their disciples.
However, Zhuang Wudao's cultivation is too poor. This method of converting soul fire into flames requires at least the late stage of the golden elixir and the spiritual will to cover thousands of feet.
There is some damage to the Yuanshen, but it cannot be solved once and for all. Golden elixir monks can only last for three years. Yuanshen monks can last longer, and can last for ten years.
And you can't entrust someone you don't truly trust. Just by looking at the fight between Yu Xuxuan and Hong Zhen's master and disciple, you can see how dangerous it is.
"But if Senior Brother Lian Xiao can't do anything, what's the use of having the disciple go?"
Zhuang Wudao was still confused. Lian Xiao was a monk in the late Jindan period, and he was only building the foundation.
Lian Xiao's whereabouts are unknown now, let alone him. At this time, shouldn't Master Jiefa send another Jindan cultivator in his sect to investigate, or should he personally come forward?
"Don't belittle yourself. A heaven-level mystical art. An ordinary golden elixir can't do anything to you. I really don't know how to evaluate your mystical art -"
Jiefa's voice paused, as if he was thinking about the words: "It's not so much a magic spell, but a large formation, an unprecedented auxiliary battle technique that can influence the situation of the battle. I am also proud of you as a teacher, before Jin Dan
It has taken hundreds of millions of years to cultivate a first-level supernatural power in the world of heaven, but I am afraid you are the only one."
Zhuang Wudao curled his lips. It turned out that he already knew the secret technique. He thought that when he practiced this mysterious art, it was already secretive enough.
"But after all, the disciple is still in the foundation building realm, far inferior to the senior brother."
"Seventy percent of the Lichen Golden Pill is in the East China Sea, and there is really no one to use it. Most of the rest are not as strong as Lian Xiao, so they will be of no use. But if we mobilize a large number of troops and dilute the manpower elsewhere, we will also
It's enough to scare away the enemy. And your magic technique is so special that with your help, even the Yuan Shen can defeat any golden elixir. If Lian Xiao is fine, with your help, even the Yuan Shenxiu will not be afraid."
Master Jiefa shook his head: "I'm not asking you to rescue him and make enemies of those golden elixir demons. I'm just trying to find out what's going on. There's no risk of safety. This trip is more about wisdom than strength.
If you have the slightest clue, you can report it to me."
While speaking, Jiefa brushed two more things in front of Zhuang Wudao.
"That jade slip is the detailed account of Lian Xiao's journey to the south of the Zangxuan River and the ten years of searching for the traces of the demon cultivator. The other picture is the self-defense thing I gave you."
Zhuang Wudao took it in his hand, and his thoughts flashed through the jade slip, and his eyes suddenly became more solemn. Just from the information he roughly scanned with his thoughts, he already knew that this matter was complicated and dangerous.
He also immediately understood the purpose of Jiefa. Master Jiefa really cannot leave Lichen Mountain lightly. However, as long as he has accurate clues, his master can quickly intervene. He can personally take action and cut through the mess quickly without giving any chance to his opponent.
You can take advantage of the opportunity.
But when he looked at the picture again, Zhuang Wudao's hands couldn't help but tremble slightly, and he looked at Jiefa in astonishment.
"This is Master's true form?"
The True Shape Diagram is a powerful talisman that is a step further than the Talisman. Only monks above the Yuan Shen realm can cast it. Seal a trace of your soul in the talisman. With the help of the talisman, you can travel millions of miles away.
It takes on its true form and possesses one-tenth of the combat power of its original body.
However, the production of this kind of true-shape drawing also requires a lot of life of the producer.
"Nothing, I made this three hundred years ago and it has never been used until now."
Master Jiefa laughed and said with a relaxed expression: "Your master just didn't want to squander these fifty-seven years of life. However, this talisman was achieved only when I was in my prime and my power was slightly weaker."
Zhuang Wudao felt certain in his heart. Even if the Yuanshen cultivator was only one-tenth of his strength, he would not be able to defeat anyone at the level of three or five golden elixirs.
Three hundred years ago, the Jifa at that time should have been in the middle stage of Yuanshen, and its strength was even more powerful.
With this talisman in hand, at least your life can be saved.
However, Jiefa then handed over ten more talismans into his hands.
"This is the Zi-Mother Universe Talisman. It can be moved up to one hundred and eighty miles away in an emergency. It was something your Uncle Yu obtained in the Lihantian Realm and was given to me decades ago. This
Only with the three sets of talismans and the true shape diagram can I truly rest assured."
When he said this, Master Jiefa asked again: "This trip is dangerous, if you need anything else, just ask me.
Zhuang Wudao looked at the talisman first and found that there were three sets in total, one set of four. It was called the Zimu Escape Talisman, with three sons and one mother. When using it, you need to lay out the talisman first, and then you can move it in the void.
Although the distance traveled is only a few hundred miles, it is much safer than the Thousand Miles of Light Movement. The latter is easy to crack, but the former cannot be controlled.
However, after thinking for a while, Zhuang Wudao still said: "I wonder, disciple, can you ask Senior Brother Yun for an edict to confer the sect's protector?"
"Dharma protector?"
Master Jiefa was stunned and looked at Zhuang Wudao. He thought that this disciple was destined to be a demon cultivator. There was already a Yue Xiong Taoist in front of him, and now he didn't know who it was for. But in the past few years, Zhuang Wudao has not been seen outside.
.
"It's not impossible, but is this demon trustworthy? Are you sincere in joining our sect?"
"I don't know about this either. I don't even know if it agrees."
Zhuang Wudao shook his head: "But it is true that this demon is extremely trustworthy. If he surrenders, he will definitely not go back on his word. It will also be a great help to our Lichen Sect."
If we can get that person's help, our trip to the Zangxuan River will not be dangerous at all.
"Keeping your word? As long as the demon cultivators in this world reach the third level, how many truly honest ones are there? It would be better if you don't get deceived."
Jie Fa smiled, but after pondering for a moment, he still spoke seriously: "I will ask Senior Brother Yun to deliver the canonization edict to you later. However, if this is not the case next time, you must be cautious. Your senior brother has just been appointed as the Headmaster. At this time,
If prestige is not established, it is like walking on thin ice, unable to escape."
Zhuang Wudao didn't expect Jie Fa to agree to his request so easily, and felt a little warm in his heart. He knew it was Jie Fa, and he trusted him so much that he thought he would never bring harm to the master's sect. That's why he did this.
"Disciple, thank you Master. I will not be reckless in this matter."
At this point, Zhuang Wudao wanted to leave. Lian Xiao's whereabouts were unknown and his life was in danger at any time. Naturally, the sooner the better.
But just when Zhuang Wudao was about to leave, he suddenly felt something in his heart and looked out the window. He saw the clouds and mist in the sky suddenly rolling away towards the east. Looking from a distance, he could see thousands of miles away.
, a trace of electric light flashed.
At this time, not only him, but also Master Jiefa was watching intently.
However, this slight sign only lasted for a moment, and then it subsided, the wind disappeared, and the lightning gradually disappeared.
"Still not done-"
Zhuang Wudao's eyes flashed with a hint of worry: "I heard that the longer you delay in attacking the soul, the lower the chance of success."
This kind of scenery has happened more than once. In the past two years, Zhuang Wudao has seen it no more than ten times. However, in the end, the ultimate method failed.
To form elixirs using ancient methods in the golden elixir realm, you need to withstand heavenly calamities, which often takes several years. Yuanshen monks do not have to do this. If they are quick, they can achieve Yuanshen in one day. However, some people who are not strong enough in cultivation often need to spend three years to form elixirs.
Five years.
This is also the reason why sects are so prevalent in the world, and accomplished monks preach Taoism widely and teach their disciples, and why casual monks manage their own caves like iron barrels.
Forming elixirs and refining gods is extremely dangerous, and monks are often unable to defend themselves at this time. However, with fellow disciples to look after you and disciples to protect you, you will be much safer.
However, for Yuanshen monks, the longer the impact lasts, the lower the chance of becoming a Yuanshen. There are less than one in a thousand people who dare to successfully give birth to a Yuanshen after three years.
Therefore, Zhuang Wudao is extremely unfavorable.
"Don't worry about this. I don't know about others, but the ultimate method should be completed. It just takes a little longer, not necessarily seven or ten years."
Seeing Zhuang Wudao's expression of disbelief, Jiefa asked with a smile: "Do you know what your uncle Sanfa's Baxuan Meditation Flag was obtained from Chiyin City?"
Zhuang Wudao was about to say how this disciple could know, when Jiefa spoke: "It's the Purple Yin Burning Soul Technique."
"oh?"
"The extreme talent is ordinary, similar to mine, and his spiritual root is only of the third grade. However, his soul is somewhat special. It is recorded in the Tianji Monument that it is a spiritual body that accumulates energy."
Zhuang Wudao was puzzled at first, and after a moment, he was horrified. He knew why Jifa would say that Jifa Zhenren was absolutely sure.
The Purple Yin Burning Soul Technique is a secret technique in Chiyin City that harms one's own soul to increase the magic power of the soul. The accumulating spirit body is usually useless, and the various spells have no increase. But this kind of soul body, but
It can continuously absorb and accumulate excess spilled and free soul power until it can no longer be stored.
He can almost guess the method used by Master Jifa. However, the damage this method does to the soul is also incalculable.
Although one can advance to the rank of Yuan Shen, one's cultivation in the future can only go so far. However, in the early stage of Yuan Shen's life, it is much stronger than the realm of false gods.
Not only can his strength be increased several times, but his lifespan is also at least two hundred years behind.
If it had been him, Zhuang Wudao, he wouldn't have had the second choice——
