About six hours later, Wei Dongliu had collected 126 kinds of Taoist methods, more than 30 kinds of Qi-refining techniques, and more than 200 kinds of sword-wielding techniques.

Jiang Li'an watched the whole process from behind him, his heart filled with confusion and his face staring in astonishment.

There are two things that make her suspicious:

One is that Wei Dongliu's true energy capacity is too amazing.

She was busy defending and dodging in the back, and after a few hours her true energy was almost used up, with very little left.

However, Lord Wei was able to resist all kinds of attacks head-on, not only with ease, but also without any sign of embarrassment from lack of true energy... Jiang Li'an could confirm that he had definitely not taken any elixirs.

So the question is: Is such a terrifying capacity of true energy the normal level for a Jindan Zhenren?

Anyway, when Witch Jiang was still in the Heavenly Demon Sect, she had never seen any senior sister in the Golden Core Realm who had such an exaggerated sustained combat capability - her master, Fairy Cai E, could do it, but she was in the Nascent Soul Realm.

With this in mind, the true level of cultivation of Lord Wei Mo has to be questioned again.

Another strange thing is that he seems to have an unfathomable memory.

At first, while helping in the battle, Witch Jiang secretly recorded those mental formulas.

But as the number of spells increased, Witch Jiang became dizzy and soon could not remember them clearly.

Wei Dongliu had a blank expression on his face the entire time. He didn't seem to try very hard to memorize the spells, nor did he need to rest. After hearing one spell, he immediately moved on to the next one...

By the end, Witch Jiang had completely given up. No matter how powerful the mantras you told me were, I just let them go in one ear and out the other. I didn't listen at all.

Wei Dongliu wrote down another Taoist method and asked the stone statue:

"Do you have any more... Never mind, let me tell you a method I haven't recorded yet."

The stone statue was silent for a moment, then suddenly said:

“No more.”

"Is it really gone?" Wei Dongliu asked doubtfully.

"Really." The statue replied, "What's the point of having so many magics? With your strength, only a few particularly powerful magics will be valuable to you."

"I am the head of the Wanfa Tongxuan Sect." Seeing that the stone statue could actually ask questions, Wei Dongliu thought it was probably a spirit or something like that, so he patiently explained to it, "As the head of the sect, isn't it normal for me to take inventory and clean up the Taoist methods stored in our sect?"

"So it's you, Master." I don't know if it was my illusion, but the statue's tone seemed to become flattering. "Master, there are some things I don't know whether I should say or not."

"Tell me." Wei Dongliu said lightly.

"It's been a long time since your disciples came to learn the Dao." The stone statue complained, "Not only that, the real elders haven't come to add new Daoist techniques for a long time. I thought I had been forgotten by the sect."

Wei Dongliu was silent for a moment and said:

"Tongxuan Sect suffered a serious orthodoxy extinction incident four thousand years ago."

"What? Our sect is gone?" The stone statue was slightly startled at first, and then quickly said, "Master, are you kidding me? Our Tongxuan Sect has been prosperous for thousands of years. How could it be destroyed?"

"There's no need for me to lie." Wei Dongliu said indifferently, "Please confirm for the last time whether there are any Taoist secrets that you haven't handed over to me. If not, I'll leave."

"Master, please stay!" the stone statue immediately called out, "If possible, can you take me away from here?"

"You want to go with me?" Wei Dongliu frowned slightly.

"Let the master know that I am a magic weapon made by the elder Wanfa Tongxuan of the Jiejiao sect. It is called the Statue of the Wanfa Zhenling God." The stone statue spoke quickly, "I can help the master store various martial arts books, and I can also teach the elders of the sect. I can even eliminate those disciples with insufficient qualifications in advance to avoid wasting the resources of the sect..."

"That's enough." Wei Dongliu interrupted his endless chatter, "There's no need to remove the disciples, there aren't many disciples anyway. But let me ask you, how can you teach the disciples? No fighting, just chanting scriptures and answering questions, right?"

Witch Jiang was stunned when she heard this. She suddenly reacted and immediately added fuel to the fire:

"Fellow Daoist Wei, you must not trust this kind of spirit! Who knows its true identity? Maybe there is a soul without a body hiding behind it, ready to kill people and take over other people's bodies at any time!"

How dare you steal my job!

"Bullshit!" the statue cursed immediately, "How can a soul without a body survive in a stone statue for more than 10,000 years? Go die now and see how long your soul can remain in the world!"

"I haven't formed a fetus yet, so how would I know?" Witch Jiang retorted, and turned to slander Wei Dongliu again, "Daoyou Wei, this kind of thing that can think independently is too dangerous. Who knows if there is a real spirit behind it? Even if it is not an old monster that has lost its body and is trying to take over other people's bodies, if it is a sealed demon, it will be an extremely troublesome and dangerous thing..."

"Master, I can teach you anything." The statue didn't bother to argue with her, and just replied respectfully, "Whether it's foundation building, golden elixir or Nascent Soul, whether it's Qi training, Taoism or other unorthodox methods, there is no problem."

"As long as you or other elders can inject the knowledge you need to impart to the disciples into my body with your spiritual consciousness, just like engraving a jade slip, I can then pass it on to other disciples."

"Only words, images and sounds can be recorded in the jade slips, but as a Qimen magic weapon, I can also construct extremely realistic illusions to train disciples and younger generations in actual combat training. These are things that ordinary jade slip scriptures cannot do."

"In addition, there is a risk that the jade slips and scriptures will be stolen or lost by disciples, but if they are stored in my body, there is no need to worry about their safety. For example, if enemies from a rival sect sneak in and want to steal the Taoist scriptures, I will naturally not let them succeed."

"In the more than 5,000 years that I have served in Tongxuan Sect, there has never been any theft of the Daoist tradition. Even when you came to visit me this time, I confirmed your identity and let you go only after I heard you say the sect leader's secret words. You can think of me as a keeper of the Sutra Repository who will never betray you..."

The statue began to brag about its merits, such as its dedication to education, its dedication to its children, its eternal loyalty, etc. Witch Jiang kept saying bad things about it, questioning its identity as a weapon spirit, and pointed out that it was not safe to store all the books in one place, because once they were broken through, they would all be destroyed.

Wei Dongliu pondered for a moment and decided to take the stone statue away.

As for what Jiang Li'an was worried about, he actually didn't need to care about them.

First of all, there are many weapon spirits with independent thoughts. The mirror and the sword still live in one's own mind, so there is no need to worry too much about a stone statue.

Secondly, if Witch Jiang is always asked to teach the two disciples, it will inevitably affect the disciples' loyalty and other issues. However, if the stone statue spirit is used to teach, there will naturally be no similar risks... The magic weapon spirit is not a human being, so can the disciples be abducted by the spirit?

After confirming with Kunlun Mirror that the statue was indeed a magic weapon and not the soul of some old monster waiting to possess another body, Wei Dongliu made the decision:

Move away!

So Witch Jiang shut up obediently, but she felt secretly aggrieved in her heart.

At the beginning, she could provide information to Wei Dongliu, but now Wei Mojun has become the leader of a faction and has no shortage of information.

Later, she was able to discipline Wei Dongliu's disciples, but an inexplicable stone statue magic weapon came and took away this job.

Am I really only qualified to be a concubine?

It's not impossible, it seems that we have to change our strategic goals...
