In front of the mountain gate, Lu Huaiyuan came forward holding the wooden box in both hands.
"This is Elder Yuan's relic."
"According to the sect's regulations, when an elder dies, his disciples will welcome back the relics and send them to the official hall. After inspection, they will be inherited."
"Elder Yuan's remains and relics have been returned to the mountain, and the rest will be left to you."
Lu Huaiyuan handed the wooden box forward.
Li Zhengjing looked solemn, took it with both hands, and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Lu!"
Lu Huaiyuan nodded slightly, and then said: "Last night, the records about you since you entered the profession were sent to me. You are very outstanding. I think Elder Yuan knows about it, which is enough to satisfy you!"
After finishing speaking, he patted Li Zhengjing on the shoulder and saluted the inner sect elders.
Facing the salute of the chief true disciple, all the inner sect elders present did not dare to show off and returned the salute one after another.
Then Lu Huaiyuan nodded slightly and went straight past Li Zhengjing to the main peak hall.
Li Zhengjing held the wooden box and saluted towards the coffin.
"Is this the boy who worshiped the mountain with Yuan Zhengfeng's token?"
"It's only been half a year since I started, but I have already mastered the internal energy, and my basic understanding is extremely good!"
"I heard that when I first developed inner energy, I killed the spiritual beast with all my strength. Not long ago, I even went down the mountain to capture the evil cultivator who caused chaos in Wanlin County!"
"It seems that after he cultivated his inner energy, his progress was quite astonishing!"
"No wonder Lu Huaiyuan's eyes are as high as his head and he has such admiration for him! This boy is really good and should be cultivated!"
Some inner sect elders discussed it privately, but there were also some inner sect elders who looked indifferent and made no comments.
Gao Changhe stood aside, and beside him was Xie Changqing.
"Senior Brother Yuan was ruthless and selfless in the Law Enforcement Hall, and he offended many people."
Xie Changqing whispered: "Now, including you and me, we have only gathered twenty-four elders. They must have come to greet us because of their friendship with fellow Immortal Sect members..."
The scene of welcoming Yuan Zhengfeng's body back was not a solemn one, and everyone knew that if it weren't for Lu Huaiyuan, the chief true successor, who personally sent his body back, it would have seemed even more shabby.
After Li Zhengjing took the wooden box and Lu Huaiyuan left, the other inner sect elders also dispersed.
A polite person still bowed towards the coffin.
And more people just left without taking a second look.
There were only more than a hundred inner disciples who did not dare to disperse easily. They lined up on both sides and saluted them all.
The coffin was carried to the back mountain, and everything had been properly handled by Gao Changhe and Xie Changqing. Therefore, Li Zhengjing no longer had to worry about it and only sent the relics to the official hall.
After the inspection, the official hall took away three items belonging to the Immortal Sect, and returned the remaining items to Li Zhengjing.
In addition, Yuan Zhengfeng left 1,200 points of merit during his lifetime. According to the rules of the Immortal Sect, he left three out of ten, so he also added 360 points of merit to Li Zhengjing's name.
Li Zhengjing took a look at the remaining relics, and found that there were only six pieces, which were basically remnants. But what made him feel gratified was that there were still two high-grade spiritual stones left among them!
He took out the two spiritual stones and planned to give the remaining belongings to Elder Yuan Zhengfeng as burial objects.
Arriving at the forbidden area of the back mountain, Gao Changhe and Xie Changqing were already waiting. The tombstone had been prepared, and Yuan Zhengfeng's remains had been moved into the fine coffin prepared by Gao Changhe.
"Just waiting for you."
Gao Changhe said: "Although you are not his disciple, you hold his token and worship the mountain. It is his last inheritance. Come to see him for the last time...and then close the coffin and bury him."
"Disciple understands."
Li Zhengjing came forward and saw a white bone in the coffin.
No scars can be seen on the bones, which are relatively perfect.
He looked complicated and gave a salute.
Although he has never met Yuan Zhengfeng.
Even fundamentally speaking, he has nothing to do with Yuan Zhengfeng, because Yuan Zhengfeng's token was not given to him in the first place.
This token was accidentally acquired by the Marquis of Jian'an. Knowing that it was a token of the Yuhua Immortal Sect, it was treasured for many years.
But it is undeniable that he borrowed Yuan Zhengfeng's token to join the Yuhua Immortal Sect.
Although he had made many invisible enemies because of Yuan Zhengfeng, it was also because of Yuan Zhengfeng that he was now valued by Gao Changhe and Xie Changqing.
"Elder Yuan, if my disciple lends you a token to worship the mountain, I count you as half a disciple. It is natural for me to inherit your cause and effect."
Li Zhengjing bowed down and said to himself: "Today, as a disciple, I welcome you back to the mountain gate to return your love. May you rest in peace!"
After bowing, he took out the relic, went forward, and placed it next to Yuan Zhengfeng's skull.
He put all these remnants away one by one.
He was about to get up when suddenly his whole body was shaken!
In an instant, the inner energy surged, all heading towards his head, and all was absorbed by the golden pages.
And before his eyes, the golden page glowed brightly, and all the contents on it had changed!
Name: Yuan Zhengfeng.
Identity: None.
Age: None.
Cultivation: None.
Luck: None.
Tip: The opponent's cultivation level is much higher than your own, and the content presentation fails!
If your internal energy is insufficient, please add three spiritual stones!
"What?"
Li Zhengjing's expression changed slightly.
Did he read the contents of Yuan Zhengfeng's remains?
According to his previous speculation, it is necessary to concentrate and look at the other party in order to trigger the golden page and reveal the origin of the other party!
When the cultivation level is not far apart, you can use your own inner energy to act as "spiritual energy" to activate the golden pages.
However, there is a huge difference in cultivation level, so the spiritual energy in the spiritual stones must be used to make up for the shortcomings!
Why is it that even though Yuan Zhengfeng is dead, his remains can trigger golden pages?
Moreover, only the remains remain, the body dies, the Tao disappears, and the cultivation level is completely dispersed. How can it be said that "the other party's cultivation level is much higher than one's own"?
He was shocked in his heart, and his eyes were focused, looking towards the two dark hollows in Yuan Zhengfeng's skull.
However, when they looked at each other at this moment, they saw that the display of the golden book page returned to its original state and turned into its own information display.
While he was astonished, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"Not the remains?"
Li Zhengjing's expression changed even more. He suddenly thought of something and moved his eyes away from the remains and landed on the fragments of the relics.
He looked over one by one, and finally landed on a broken jade plate.
Then the golden page once again displayed the content about Yuan Zhengfeng.
Li Zhengjing suddenly felt a chill rising from his back, traveling to the back of his head, and felt horrified.
He vaguely understood something.
Yuan Zhengfeng is dead, but Yuan Zhengfeng is not dead yet.
His physical body is already dead.
Is his soul hidden in this incomplete jade plate?
When a person dies like a lamp extinguished, how can his soul remain in the world?
Logically speaking, even an extraordinary human being cannot abandon his body and continue to live in the world!
Before Yuan Zhengfeng came down the mountain, it was clear that he was only a practitioner at the upper level of the true qi realm, and he had not even reached the peak level of the true qi realm!
So what exactly is going on?
Li Zhengjing was shocked, and his expression couldn't help but change.
