Li Yuanba named his Taoist body "Tai Chi Taoist Body". He originally planned to call it Yin Yang Taoist Body which would be more appropriate, but this Yin Yang Taoist Body was really too ugly.
"It seems that the master's news can't be kept secret for much longer!" he muttered to himself.
Two years had passed, and Elder Jian had not appeared yet, which had already caused some speculation among the cultivators in the sect.
Li Yuanba was still able to get some information within the sect. His information was not obtained by making friends with fellow disciples, but was purchased with spirit stones.
There is a force within the sect that specializes in selling information. He noticed this after hearing other cultivators mention it while he was completing a mission.
Now, the force that sells information would send him various news from the sect on time every few days, and the price he asked was not high, only about a hundred spirit stones per month.
In recent times, according to rumors about Elder Jian, more and more cultivators suspected that Elder Jian was in seclusion to achieve the Nascent Soul stage.
There were even Jindan elders who took the initiative to come to Wanjian Peak and wanted to visit, but they were stopped by Li Yuanba.
Although Li Yuanba is in Wanjian Peak, even the Jindan Elder may not be able to harm him, but if it is possible to reduce trouble, he will not bring trouble to Wanjian Peak.
With his ability to freely mobilize the sword intent of Wanjian Peak, his combat power in Wanjian Peak is almost enough to fight against the middle stage of Jindan.
Originally, he planned to spend all his time in seclusion at Wanjian Peak except for the three sect missions each year and not leave the peak.
But plans cannot keep up with changes, and his realm has reached the point where he must come out of seclusion.
He needs to find the original body Li Shiming and retrieve some Meridian Protecting Pills, Soul Stabilizing Pills, Resurrection Pills, and Mountain Breaking Pills in preparation for the subsequent pill making.
He had planned for this to take more than four years, but who would have thought that he would reach his desired level in just two years.
Li Yuanba did not plan to tell anyone about this trip, he wanted to leave quietly.
It is still unclear whether Patriarch Lu has returned to seclusion, but as long as it is not 100% confirmed that Elder Jian has broken through to the Nascent Soul stage through seclusion, no Golden Core elder will dare to attack the formation of Wanjian Peak.
Therefore, there is no need to worry about Wanjian Peak’s safety in the short term, but judging from the current situation, it probably won’t be able to hold out for much longer.
This is also the reason why he is so anxious. He needs to be promoted to the Golden Core Stage and completely transform Wanjian Peak into a magic weapon in order to ensure the safety of Wanjian Peak.
As a sword cultivator, the importance of Wan Jianfeng to him is self-evident. Without the help of Wan Jianfeng's sword intent, his sword intent cannot be improved quickly.
To some extent, improving sword intent is even more difficult than improving one's cultivation level. Otherwise, the previous sect would have to invest a huge amount of resources and a long time just to build a sword intent inheritance like Wanjian Peak.
According to his estimation, Wanjian Peak is very important to his cultivation, at least before the late Jindan stage.
Without Wan Jianfeng, his cultivation speed would drop significantly.
Although he left quietly, no matter how stealthily he moved, he still couldn't conceal the sect's formation. What he needed to do was to leave the range of the sect's formation as quickly as possible at night, and then use 'Lotus Steps' to escape.
Li Yuanba closed off Wanjian Peak and the formation was fully activated and in automatic protection mode.
He himself turned into a ray of sword light and flew out of the mountain gate. By the time several Jindan elders in the sect who were very concerned about him realized that he had left the mountain gate, they could no longer find him.
Li Yuanba's figure appeared and disappeared in the darkness with the flashing of white lotuses. Now the distance of one step of his had reached two hundred meters.
He looked back towards the direction of the Senluo Sect's mountain gate, a hint of helplessness appearing on his face.
Who would have thought that as a true disciple of the Senluo Sect, he needs to be careful at all times. The Demon Sect is the Demon Sect after all. Although the sect looks peaceful on the surface, the hidden darkness is actually more terrifying.
Another reason why he left quietly was that he didn't want any of his fellow disciples to know about his cultivation.
His occupation of Wanjian Peak had already made many of his fellow cultivators jealous. If it were to be revealed that his cultivation had reached the late stage of foundation building in just two years, some Jindan elders with strong backgrounds might make a move on him within the sect.
He didn't feel relieved until he could no longer see the mountain gate. This time he planned to return to the sphere of influence of the righteous path, and to get to a position close to the Shushan Sect, and take the initiative to hand over to his original body Li Shiming.
On a cliff of the Shiwan Mountains, in a cave covered by vines, two lifeless monks suddenly opened their eyes.
They are the two arhats of Chiba Temple, Jhin Arhat and Jnana Arhat.
At this time, they were covered in dust and it seemed that they had been in the cave for an unknown period of time.
Several years ago, Zhixin Arhat and Zhihui Arhat entered the Shiwan Mountains and were hunted down by the Senluo Sect.
The Senluo Sect thought that the two Arhats had fallen into the mouth of the spirit beast, but they didn't expect that they were actually not far away from the Boundary Mountain Checkpoint, using the secret method of Buddhism to fake their death and transform into mortal beings and wait there.
When wisdom and intelligence opened their eyes, vitality also appeared in them.
Although they had been pretending to be dead here for more than two years, it only took them about ten breaths to recover. Even the dust on their bodies was shaken off by spiritual power as their strength recovered, leaving them in a spotless state.
The wise mind and wisdom use secret methods to maintain the spiritual connection with each other, so they wake up at the same time.
"Brother Zhihui, did you sense anything?" Zhixin Arhat had not spoken for a long time, and he slowly asked.
He knew that if he hadn't discovered something, the wise arhat would not wake up.
"That person has left the gate of Senluo Sect!" the wise arhat replied calmly.
Zhixin Arhat did not doubt the answer of Zhihui Arhat. The reason why Qianye Temple sent Zhihui Arhat to find the possible reincarnation of Bodhisattva was because Zhihui Arhat practiced the "fate-seeing".
Among the several magical powers of Buddhism, the "fate-knowing power" is considered to be a relatively special one.
The "knowledge of past lives" is not like the divine eye that can see a thousand miles away, nor like the divine ear that can hear all sounds, nor like the divine foot that can travel tens of millions of miles a day.
However, the "fate-seeing" is the most mysterious magical power. After obtaining the breath of a certain creature, one can infer the past and future of the creature based on the breath of that creature.
Why did Qianye Temple firmly believe that Li Yuanba was the reincarnation of Bodhisattva? A big reason for this was because of the "fate-seeing" that observed Li Yuanba's past.
Li Yuanba's past was blank, as if he had never been a child and was an adult when he appeared.
This kind of inability to look into the past can only be attributed to the reincarnated Bodhisattva in the legend who used some means to conceal the weak period of birth. Even the reincarnated Lord does not have such means.
"He has practiced 'Lotus Blooms with Every Step', and Brother Zhihui needs to find out where he passed in advance!" Zhixin Arhat was now speaking normally, and he continued.
"Of course!" The wise arhat nodded slowly, with a divine light flashing in his eyes.
After a while, with a tired look on his face, he took out the jade map, marked it on it, and then closed his eyes to rest.
"Fate-seeing" can detect other people's future. If it is an unimportant event, the cost is negligible.
But if you want to conduct a detailed exploration of a certain place, you will have to pay a considerable price to obtain it.
The Wisdom Arhat's 'Fate Sight' is almost always used in the most critical events for Chiba Temple. It is too important to Chiba Temple and they dare not let him consume too much of it.
Zhixin Arhat took the jade slip and saw that a certain place on the map in the jade slip was marked with a location and an approximate time period.
He calculated the time in his mind. Even though he had been pretending to be dead for a long time, his judgment of time was still extremely accurate.
He also closed his eyes and rested, in order to restore his condition to its peak.
Although 'Lotus Blooms with Every Step' is only the entry level to the Divine Foot Skill, its movement speed is still unstoppable. Even for a Jindan cultivator, it is almost impossible to catch Li Yuanba unless they have the means to kill him on the spot or the ability to trap him.
The purpose of the two Arhats was not to kill Li Yuanba, but to bring Li Yuanba back to Qianye Temple alive.
As long as Li Yuanba is brought back to Qianye Temple and the methods used in the temple are utilized, Li Yuanba will naturally be able to gain wisdom and remember everything about his past life.
Another reason why Qianye Temple paid such a huge price was that it did not want the reincarnated Bodhisattva to become a demon cultivator. For the Buddhist sect, that would not only be a simple loss of a reincarnated Bodhisattva, but it would even result in the demon cultivator having one more Nascent Soul.
"Let's go!" After a while, the wise arhat stood up and said.
Zhixin Arhat then stood up, and the auras of the two Arhats became obscure again. A strange energy similar to spiritual energy protected them.
Li Yuanba really likes to use 'Lotus Steps' to travel. This speed and this unrestrained feeling are in line with his sword intent.
Of course, he was also extremely careful along the way. He put his spiritual power to the maximum and sensed all possible dangers.
Even when using 'Lotus Step by Step', one must retain some strength so that when encountering danger, one can activate another 'Lotus Step by Step' at any time and escape far away.
Ever since he was targeted by Elder Yue and had the independent cultivator Jindan Niu Ziru set a trap to deal with him, he knew that his enemy might have risen to the Jindan stage.
The only means he has at present to protect himself when facing a Jindan cultivator is the "Lotus Blooms with Every Step".
He was already extremely cautious. In his judgment, no one should be able to track him because his speed was too fast. Even if a cultivator discovered that he had left the sect, they would not be able to catch up with him.
And he didn't tell anyone about his route, so there was no way he could be intercepted along the way.
He was confident that he could reach and pass Jieshan Pass before dawn.
After the original body Li Shiming had repeatedly broken through the formations of both the righteous and evil sides at the Boundary Mountain Pass, Li Yuanba could also break through the formations at the Boundary Mountain Pass and pass through the defenses of the two formations freely.
At the moment his figure appeared on a protruding rock in the valley, he seemed to have entered some kind of illusion. Countless gods and Buddhas appeared in his consciousness, and the Buddhist sounds flooded his consciousness like a flood.
Li Yuanba stood on the rock, his feet supported by a white lotus that appeared out of thin air, and he did not move at all.
Zhixin Arhat clasped his hands together and kept chanting Buddhist scriptures. He was actually not far from the rock.
He also practiced supernatural powers. He practiced telepathy, a supernatural power that can influence other people's minds.
The telepathy of the wise arhat is at the entry-level stage, so its scope of influence is limited.
However, the fact that "telepathy" can become a magical power in Buddhism must have its own special features.
The mental energy emitted by 'Telepathy' formed a protective shield that could not only hide his and the Wise Arhat's spiritual power, but also block the cultivator's perception of danger.
The latter one is more important. A monk's perception of danger is closely related to his own mental strength.
It is extremely difficult to block this perception of danger. The closer the distance and the greater the difference in strength, the stronger the perception of danger will be.
The Wise Heart Arhat used the spiritual energy of "telepathy" to hide himself and the Wisdom Arhat ten meters away from the rock that Li Yuanba would pass by. This distance was already in the absolute realm for a cultivator, and even the slightest abnormality would trigger the cultivator's perception.
Li Yuanba maintained the highest alert throughout the journey, and even scanned with his spiritual thoughts, but he did not find the two Arhats who were only ten meters away. This shows the horror of this "telepathy".
Hiding oneself is not the greatest function of telepathy; its greatest function is to influence the minds of others.
Just like now, any attack against Li Yuanba could trigger his long-prepared 'Lotus Steps' escape.
However, the spiritual net cast by his 'telepathy' trapped him in a spiritual trap. The gods and Buddhas he saw in the sky and the Buddhist sounds he heard were all the influences exerted on him by the wise arhat.
When Li Yuanba's mind was controlled, he lost control of his body, and all attempts to escape became impossible.
The Arhat of Wisdom was on the left, and the Arhat of Wisdom was on the right. They slowly approached Li Yuanba. For them, the distance of ten meters was just a step away.
However, Zhixin Luohan hopes to prolong the time that Li Yuanba is mentally affected, so that it will be more convenient for them to bring Li Yuanba back later without having to worry about Li Yuanba's resistance.
Li Shiming, who was far away at the Chijian Peak of Shushan Sect, stopped sipping tea in mid-air.
The moment the mind of the clone Li Yuanba was affected, the original body sensed it.
A stream of consciousness followed the inexplicable soul connection between the original body and the clone and entered the body of the clone Li Yuanba.
As soon as Li Shiming's consciousness entered Li Yuanba's body, he immediately felt the same mental illusion as his clone Li Yuanba.
Fortunately, the early warning function of IBMz15 discovered that his mind was affected and issued him a spiritual warning in time, giving him the opportunity to withdraw his consciousness from his clone Li Yuanba.
"Damn it, why won't Qianye Temple let me go!" Li Shiming said to himself angrily.
