In the Qinglian Sect,
Deputy Sect Leader Qiu and several elders who noticed the abnormality of the calamity clouds gathered together and looked towards the cave where Elder Long was. With the strength of these people, they could naturally easily identify the source of the calamity clouds.
"So he is the disciple of old fellow Long Zikun!" An elder stared at Elder Long's cave with envy on his face and whispered.
“Haha, little fellow Bian Ye has already completed the fifth level of the Green Lotus Heart Sutra. I heard that he gained a lot from the Ginseng Fruit Secret Realm this time. Anyone would be eager to break through!” An elder nearby seemed to be very familiar with the disciples of Elder Long’s lineage. He said with a smile on his face: “I just didn’t expect that little Bian could actually be promoted to the King level with this breakthrough. This really makes me look at him with new eyes!”
"This time, Long Zikun finally has a king-level disciple! The fight for the Holy Son is about to stir up trouble again!"
"No matter what, it's always a good thing for the Qinglian Sect to have another king-level expert!"
"Haha, that's not necessarily true..."
When Deputy Sect Master Qiu heard the elders' discussion, he could not help but frowned. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a roar coming from the back mountain of Qinglian Sect! Rumble! There is a valley in the back mountain of Qinglian Sect, which is the forbidden area of Qinglian Sect. The only emperor-level elder guarding the sect is now in seclusion in the valley. At this time, a stream of spiritual energy rushed straight into the sky from the valley, breaking a big hole in the sky. The roar was caused by this spiritual energy. Everyone was shocked and looked towards the back mountain.
"Elder Quan has come out of retreat?" A sect elder exclaimed, a worried look on his face, and whispered, "Could it be that the calamity cloud has disturbed the retreat of the Grand Elder?"
"Hmph, after Elder Quan went into seclusion, there would be a disciple breaking through every few years. There weren't many calamity clouds that appeared when he advanced. Which of these times alarmed the Grand Elder?" An elder immediately retorted.
"This time is different. This time I am promoted to the king level..."
…
"Silence!" Deputy Sect Master Qiu shouted, "The Supreme Elder's coming out of retreat is a major event for the sect. Elder Xu, gather all the elders of the sect and prepare to welcome the Supreme Elder out of retreat!"
"Yes, Deputy Sect Leader!" A middle-aged man stood up, bowed, and prepared to leave.
At this moment, an old voice sounded in everyone's ears;
"Hehe, I'm an old man just going out of the customs, there's no need for so many people to greet me, everyone can go away." After a moment, an old man with white hair and a youthful face appeared in front of everyone, holding a dragon-headed cane.
"Greetings, Grand Elder!" Deputy Sect Leader Qiu and several elders all bowed and saluted.
Elder Xu is the only two emperor-level powerhouses in Qinglian Sect. Without him, Qinglian Sect would have fallen out of the ranking of Baimai Xianzong hundreds of years ago. He is the pillar of Qinglian Sect. He usually retreats in the back mountain and rarely appears. He almost never cares about the affairs of the sect. I just don't know why he showed up today.
"Everyone, please stand up. I just came out for a walk on a whim. No need to be polite!" Elder Xu said with a smile, pointing at the calamity clouds in the sky, and continued: "My Qinglian Sect is full of talented people. I didn't expect that I would meet someone who has passed the king's calamity just after I came out of seclusion. Congratulations!"
Upon hearing Elder Xu confirm that this calamity cloud was the king's calamity, Deputy Sect Master Qiu showed a hint of joy on his face. Before, they were just guessing, but now that it was confirmed, Deputy Sect Master Qiu was naturally delighted.
"It has been almost six hundred years since a new king-level expert appeared in the Qinglian Sect. This time we must celebrate with great fanfare!" an elder said with a smile.
Elder Xu was also smiling, and was about to speak, but suddenly turned his head and looked in another direction. A moment later, Elder Long flew over here in a panic, shouting as he flew, "Deputy Sect Master, where is the Deputy Sect Master?"
"Elder Long!" Deputy Sect Leader Qiu saw Long Zikun's panicked expression, completely different from his usual shock. He seemed to have thought of something, and his heart suddenly sank. He hurried forward and asked, "Elder Long, what happened?"
“Qiu, Deputy Sect Master Qiu…” Elder Long panted heavily, his eyes full of horror. He grabbed Deputy Sect Master Qiu’s sleeve and said pleadingly, “Deputy Sect Master, please go to my cave and take a look. My disciple has broken through to the king level, but is shrouded in calamity energy. I’m afraid, I’m afraid…”
Deputy Sect Master Qiu's face changed drastically. Elder Long's disciple breaking through to the King level was originally a great joyous event for the entire sect, but it seemed that something went wrong. How could this be possible...
"It's just a king's tribulation, what can happen?" An elder asked doubtfully: "With the mountain protection formation in place, no tribulation thunder will fall..."
This is the invisible benefit of the large sects in the upper realm. No matter what technique you practice, if the thunder is triggered, it will be blocked by the sect's mountain protection formation. You will not suffer any harm and will be able to advance smoothly. This is one of the reasons why all cultivators want to join the Baimai Immortal Sect.
"It's calamity energy, calamity energy..." Elder Long's face was full of regret. Until now, he still thought that he had failed to separate the calamity energy from the source energy of heaven and earth, which had harmed Xu Feng. If he had known this earlier, he would have let Xu Feng practice for a few more days and advance on his own. It is better not to come into contact with something like the source energy of heaven and earth so early!
But there is no regret medicine now. Elder Long held the hand of Deputy Sect Master Qiu, tears streaming down his face. Now the only one who could save Xu Feng was Deputy Sect Master Qiu. This was also the reason why he rushed out of the cave as soon as he found out that he could not save Xu Feng.
Before Deputy Sect Leader Qiu wanted to ask something, Elder Long pulled him by the sleeve and led him towards his cave. The other elders had no choice but to follow him. Even the Grand Elder Xu Xuan followed with a serious look on his face.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
At the same time, Xu Feng was practicing the "Eternal Devouring Art" in Elder Long's cave. At this moment, all kinds of auras in his body were constantly merging into his body, which made Xu Feng feel overwhelmed; "Too many, I can't swallow them all..." Xu Feng's aura kept rising, and his internal strength was also increasing. Because he had to merge too many auras, Xu Feng put all his mind on swallowing these auras.
Moreover, once these auras were swallowed by Xu Feng, it was impossible to expel them. At this moment, Xu Feng finally realized what it meant to be easy to invite gods but difficult to send them away.
At this moment, a hint of purple aura flashed in Xu Feng's veins. It was not absorbed by Xu Feng, but it flowed to an unknown location. "Hey, that breath just now was a bit strange..." Such a thought suddenly flashed through Xu Feng's mind, but at this time there were too many auras in Xu Feng's body, how could he pay attention to just one of them? Roar~ A roar suddenly sounded in Xu Feng's mind. Outside the giant egg wrapped in black calamity energy, the shadow of a wild beast was looming. If you look closely, it is the legendary ancient beast, Taotie!
The shadow of Taotie appeared, and Xu Feng's speed of absorbing the breath suddenly increased a bit. At the same time, the purple breath appeared again at the position of Xu Feng's heart. Just when Xu Feng wanted to capture it, this breath flashed away again, as if it had never appeared.
At this time, there were hundreds of auras spreading in Xu Feng's body. As long as he swallowed all of these auras, Xu Feng would not only be able to break through to become a king-level powerhouse, but also gain many unexpected benefits. This is why he was so "greedy".
"This wisp of purple air is not the purple vitality. Let me see what you are!" Xu Feng said in his heart. For him who possesses the ability to control air, the continuous appearance of this wisp of purple air is like a provocation. How can he tolerate this!
For a moment, Xu Feng even gave up on integrating other auras, and put all his mind on capturing the fleeting purple aura. After a moment, Xu Feng's eyes suddenly lit up, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He thought to himself: "I caught you. In my body, I am the home court. Coupled with the magical power of controlling qi, how can I let you escape? Let me see, what on earth are you!"
