“The Taixuan War God, Canglan Guard General, Yaochi Saintess… do you know why, as your senior brother, I taught you all to cultivate?”
The first waste senior brother in the history of T...
Li Changan went up to Shuihan Peak with Jiang Xuan.
The reason why I brought Jiang Xuan along was just to ensure my own safety.
As for the danger, it naturally did not come from Shui Hanfeng, but from the figure he saw in the strange space above Taixuan Sect.
Shuihan Peak was as deserted as ever. Second Senior Sister Qianqian seemed to have known that Li Changan was coming to Shuihan Peak and had been waiting at the mountain gate.
"Junior Brother Chang'an, are you here to see Senior Sister Yuheng?" Qianqian asked.
Li Changan paused, "Is Yuheng still in seclusion?"
"Well, ever since you gave her the Holy Spirit Pill last time, Senior Sister has been in seclusion trying to reach the Anti-Void Realm. She hasn't come out yet. I'm worried about her and don't know if she's in danger."
Jiang Xuan, who was standing next to him, raised his head slightly and looked somewhere, with starlight flashing in his eyes.
"Let me take you in. Senior Sister Yuheng will be coming out of seclusion soon."
"good."
Li Changan only felt a slight trance in front of his eyes, and when he appeared again, he was already in a cave.
Deep in the cave, Yu Heng sat cross-legged on the spiritual jade bed with his eyes closed. Strands of energy overflowed from the acupuncture points all over his body, forming a huge spiritual energy barrier around him.
Above his head, a statue of Yu Heng, several times smaller than him, sat cross-legged in the void, his lips and teeth moving, inhaling and exhaling spiritual energy and magical power.
This is Yu Heng’s Yang Shen.
Li Changan waited for almost half an incense stick of time, and the spiritual energy and magic power formed around his body finally gathered into his body. The crystal man above his head sank and drilled into Yu Heng's spiritual sea soul pool.
It went smoothly and there were no incidents.
"It seems we came at the right time." Li Changan grinned slightly.
Lying on the Lingyu bed, Yuheng finished her breathing and slowly opened her eyes. When she saw the two people standing not far in front of her, her pupils shrank uncontrollably, but soon, her expression relaxed again.
"Junior Brother Chang'an, Junior Sister Jiang Xuan, why are you here?"
Yu Heng looked up at the cave formation in surprise. It had not suffered any damage, and there was not even a trace of sensation. She really couldn't understand how these two people could appear in her cave out of nowhere.
Li Changan smiled slightly, "Congratulations to Senior Sister Yuheng for breaking through to the Anti-Void stage."
Yu Heng shook her head. "Senior Sister, my talent is dull. If it weren't for the Holy Spirit Pill that Junior Brother Chang'an gave me, I would have had a long way to go before I could break through to the Anti-Void stage."
Li Changan waved his hand, "I can't use it anyway, so it's more appropriate for you to use it."
After a pause, he said, "Senior Sister Yuheng, I came to see you today because I have something to ask you."
"What's the matter?" Yu Heng was a little confused.
"About... Uncle Taichi." Li Changan said, because not long after he entered the sect, Taichi became possessed and entered into a state of death. Although Taichi and Jiufeng had a good relationship before, he did not know much about Taichi himself.
Yu Heng frowned. Jiang Xuan, who was standing aside, waved his hand and a star-like halo enveloped the entire cave, blocking any possibility of prying eyes.
"I want to know what the relationship between Master Taichi and Chen Bailou was like before he died."
"What about his relationship with the headmaster?" Yu Heng was a little puzzled, but she still said, "Master has always been aloof and doesn't like interacting with others. Aside from being close to your master from Jiufeng, he's not close to the other peak masters."
"As for the relationship with the headmaster... it wasn't a good one." Although Yu Heng didn't understand why Li Changan suddenly asked this, she still told him what she knew. "I remember that a hundred years ago, a few days before your master ascended to heaven, he went to Taixuan in a rage and had a huge argument with the headmaster."
"Do you know what it is?" Li Changan asked.
Yuheng shook her head.
"So, not long after Master Taichi and the Sect Master parted ways on bad terms, he became possessed by a demon?"
Li Changan frowned.
During the trial in the holy land, Song Gongyang of Wuxiang Peak stood up on behalf of Tang Guang to attack Chen Bailou, saying that the reason Taichi became possessed by the devil was because he was injured by Chen Bailou at the critical moment of watching the ceremony and gaining enlightenment.
However, Zhenren Danyun said that the reason why Chen Bailou injured Taichi was because Taichi was possessed by the devil first, and in order to avoid death, Chen Bailou killed his devil body.
Let's assume that Danyun Zhenren was just a passerby who didn't know the truth, and that what Song Gongyang said was the truth...
Li Changan frowned and sorted out some key information.
It is well known that Chen Bailou is by no means a simple person. Moreover, he is not as enthusiastic towards Taixuanzong as imagined, and is even a little cold-hearted.
According to Zhenren Danyun, it was because Chen Bailou was considering the overall situation, but it was undeniable that he would not trap himself in a vortex because of the life and death of certain people.
But, a hundred years ago, Taichi, who was not friendly to him, was possessed by the devil. He was the first to rush there and kill Taichi's devilish body. A hundred years later, Taichi's devilish thoughts revived, and he was the first to rush there again and control Taichi.
Are you being a little too enthusiastic?
"Senior Sister Yuheng, was the magic formation in the cave where Senior Uncle Taichi entered into seclusion and entered the devil's world set up by the headmaster?" Li Changan suddenly asked.
Yuheng nodded, "Yes."
The magic circle that Master Taichi used for his retreat was set up by Chen Bailou, but the demon fetus was taken to Taixuan Sect before and invaded the magic circle, which affected Taichi. It must be because the magic circle was destroyed, and the person who destroyed the magic circle should be someone from Tang Guang's lineage.
Tang Guang, since he knows some secrets that I don't know, should I take the initiative to find him and ask him?
Li Changan was a little hesitant.
"Do you have any doubts about my master's demonic possession?" Yu Heng suddenly asked, staring at Li Changan. "Actually... I've always suspected the truth about my master's demonic possession. A hundred years ago, my master had already reached the peak of the Anti-Void Realm, only one step behind the Sect Master. If she hadn't been possessed by a demon, she might have become the second cultivator in the Taixuan Sect to reach the Hedao Realm."
"Furthermore, Master taught us that cultivation requires a down-to-earth approach and a solid foundation. He has always despised external forces and has never been involved in demonic practices. I don't believe she suddenly became possessed without any warning, but I simply don't dare disobey the Master."
Yu Heng looked hesitant and suddenly said, "Oh, I remember Master once mentioned that the Master wanted to become an immortal!"
"Become an immortal?" Li Changan opened his eyes wide.
He keenly realized that the immortality that Yu Heng talked about was not the same as the immortality that every cultivator in Beizhou longed for.
"Yes." Yu Heng nodded. "Master once mentioned that the headmaster has deep evil thoughts..."
…
When coming down from Shuihan Peak, Li Changan kept thinking about Yuheng's last words.
Chen Bailou wants to become an immortal, but he has deep evil thoughts?
What does this mean? If these words came from Taichi, why was it Taichi himself who was possessed by the devil in the end?
According to Yu Heng's understanding of Tai Chi, Tai Chi should be the person in Tai Xuan who is least likely to be possessed by a demon.
What does she know?
Li Changan remembered the thing he gave to Yuheng at the last moment.
If you can wake up too late, perhaps all of this will come to light.
"Let's go back to Jiufeng!"
