Chapter 61 Guess
A hint of reminiscence appeared on Su Wen's face.
"Of course I have heard of it. This fire was once one of the three most famous exotic fires in the Moonlight Realm."
Su Qingwu was a little curious.
"According to the elders, the meaning of the cold ghost fire is unclear, and it disappeared for a long time?"
"Yes, the owner of this fire was a demon cultivator who had reached the Golden Core Perfection Stage. Later, due to excessive killing, he had a lot of blood debts on his hands, so he was killed by all the Taoist sects. Since then, the Cold Ghost Fire has disappeared."
"Strange fires...are they all unique?"
"Of course, there can only be one of each type of strange fire in the world."
"But strange fire recognizes its master. If the master dies, can the strange fire survive?"
"As far as I know, it is possible."
"So... the alien fire will never die?"
"I'm not sure about that. Maybe different kinds of fire would encounter each other and devour each other? In a small world like the Moonlight Realm, nothing can last forever."
Hearing this, Su Qingwu was silent for a moment and then talked about another matter.
"That black bell appeared together with the cold ghost fire. After the enemy died, the strange fire and the bell disappeared together. So can we assume that there is a certain connection between the two?"
Su Wen pondered and said:
"It is indeed possible. Strange fires can also parasitize something. The cold ghost fire back then was parasitic on the Netherworld Banner, the life-saving magic weapon of the Jindan Demon Cultivator."
Having said this, she glanced at the girl beside her with worry in her eyes.
"Qingwu, if this is true, then just as those Jindan said, the Lord of the Cold Ghost Fire can never be a Qi Refining cultivator. Today's enemy may just be a cover."
"So what is the other party's purpose? Why did they target me?"
"Among the treasures you have now, apart from the Jade Mirror, the stone bottle is the only one that can attract people's covetousness."
"Since we got the stone bottle, except for the time we took it out on Bailing Island, the rest of the time it was kept in this yard. This treasure looks very ordinary, and no one would notice it unless they knew its purpose."
"Could it be possible that someone already knew of the existence of this treasure before you obtained it?"
"This......"
Su Qingwu frowned slightly, recalling the experience of obtaining the stone bottle.
After a while, she sighed softly:
"This possibility does exist. I was able to obtain this treasure by accident. It happened half a month after I joined the sect. This treasure was originally collected by an elder of Yanhui Peak for the purpose of refining tools. Later, due to the explosion of the furnace, the treasure flew out and hit me on the head..."
Su Wen didn't know the inside story before, and was quite surprised when he heard it now.
"The object that flew out of the blast furnace was quite powerful. You were..."
"I fainted and was taken to Yanhui Peak by Senior Sister Rong. It was three full days before I woke up."
"Didn't they find anything unusual during this time?"
"According to Senior Sister Rong, it was common for her master's furnace to explode, so when she found that the object that hit me was gone, she didn't care much and just thought it was natural damage. Because I was unconscious, she also asked the sect's doctor to check me out, but in the end, they didn't find any problems."
“That’s right.”
"Su Wen, do you think the incident with Luo Yunjian was caused by the enemy today?"
"Judging from the deaths of the monks who were killed, he is most likely responsible. However, since the Cold Ghost Fire has another master, he can only be considered a pawn at best."
"There is one thing I'm very curious about. Why do you all say that the master of the Cold Ghost Fire cannot possibly be a Qi Refining cultivator? Is there a realm limit for the alien fire to recognize its master?"
"Indeed, in the Moonlight Realm, from ancient times to the present, the only one who can make the strange fire recognize its master is a Jindan cultivator."
Hearing this, Su Qingwu's heart sank.
If this incident was really caused by a mastermind, then doesn't that mean she has an enemy in the Jindan stage?
But if that was the case, why didn't the other party do it himself? Was it inconvenient for him to do it, or did he think that she was too weak and could be dealt with by just sending one person?
Whatever the reason, it was not a good thing for her.
"It seems that I need to try to reduce the number of times I leave the sect..."
Su Wen hesitated for a moment, then said comfortingly:
"Luo Yunjian is not far from Qianzhi Sect. Something like this happened today. The Jindan of this sect will not sit idly by. Otherwise, the reputation of the sect will be greatly damaged, which will be extremely disadvantageous for recruiting future disciples. Maybe after a while, the person behind the scenes will be found out."
"I hope so."
......
That night, half of the Jindan in Qianzhi Sect went out.
Su Wen noticed something and told Su Qingwu about it.
At that time, she was taking out a spirit-feeding pill to feed the seven-legged worm. Upon hearing the news, she could not help but secretly pray that the elders would have a smooth journey.
The monster she bought during the trip to the market has not yet been settled, so she took advantage of the current time to go to the Yuqing Mirror space.
When the spirit beast bag was opened, fifty colorful auks flew out immediately.
However, they did not fly far away, but circled back and forth around Su Qingwu.
This beast is quite intelligent and knows that the person in front of it can control its life and death, so it behaves very docilely.
Fifty of them gathered together, which is considered a small group, and naturally there is a leader-like existence.
Su Qingwu looked for a while, locked onto the largest one, and used the Beast Taming Technique to make a contract with it.
The remaining forty-nine all obeyed her commands and she didn't have to work any more.
After giving the order to catch the pests, the colorful birds that had been surrounding her quickly flew away.
Su Qingwu then walked to the poultry area and released the ten white-feathered chickens from the spirit beast's bag. At the same time, he took out a handful of white wheat and black rice harvested from the spirit field as food and scattered them evenly on the ground.
The white-feathered chicken had been in the spirit beast's bag for most of the day and was already hungry. When it saw the spirit grain, it quickly began to peck at the food.
They have a big appetite and in just a short while, they have eaten all the grains on the ground.
Su Qingwu took out some more and scattered it on the ground. At the same time, he made hand gestures and used his water spirit power to create dozens of water balls, which fell into the bamboo basin beside him, providing the white-feathered chickens with enough water to replenish their water supply.
After doing this, she waved her sleeves, and a fish tank made of obsidian appeared before her eyes.
There were a thousand fish fry in the tank, which she carefully placed into the fish pond that had been filled with mostly clean water through a spell.
As for the remaining 16 ornamental carps, they are kept in four water tanks in the bluestone courtyard.
In this way, all the living creatures purchased during the trip to the market were properly placed.
Seeing that nothing happened in the sect, Su Qingwu returned to the space, took out the spirit seeds, and continued to sow the seeds one acre at a time...
After a long time, the seven-legged insect that stayed in the yard suddenly moved strangely, and a strong sense of uneasiness came over him.
However, within the insect's field of vision, everything seems normal.
Su Qingwu immediately informed Su Wen of the situation, and both of them were ready to take action at any time and left the space together.
At this moment, from a very far distance, a series of loud booms reached my ears.
Su Wen concentrated and sensed it for a while, and finally confirmed: "This distance and direction is Luo Yunqian!"
"A battle of this scale must have been caused by a Jindan realm cultivator?"
"Yes, it seems that the Jindan elders of the sect have found the master of the Cold Ghost Fire."
"Is there any nemesis for this strange fire?"
"If you have something extremely cold, you can use a spell to control it, but it's very difficult to completely destroy it. You can only try to kill the master."
Hearing this, Su Qingwu looked into the distance.
The battle is still going on there, the outcome is still unknown...
