Chapter 143 Sneaking Through to Escape Robbery: Song Yin Speaks Nonsense
The black-clad swordsman wasn't surprised when the person in front of him disappeared; he knew perfectly well where the person had gone.
"Daojun must have been bored again, so he deliberately released his pressure and deliberately took people away." The black-clad swordsman sat back down on the ground.
"You are not allowed to speak to the Daoist Lord like that!" the spirit of the secret realm rang out.
The swordsman in black said, "During the trial, you cannot communicate with us."
"...Ling is not talking to you anymore, you're so annoying!"
As the silence fell, the black-clad swordsman began to recall the scene of his fight with Song Yin. She was indeed a rare genius, quick to learn and highly perceptive. After Daojun brought her back, he taught her the entire Nine Heavens Sword Technique.
At this moment, Song Yin's feelings were divided into two: one was, "Can I even listen to this?" and the other was, "I want to hear more."
The Nine Heavens Dao Lord didn't take Song Yin seriously, and just kept saying things that no one could understand, but Song Yin listened to everything he said.
Hearing the rest, Song Yin felt a surge of shock and disbelief.
No one else knew about the conversation between Jiutian Daojun and Song Yin, including the Heavenly Dao, which was briefly blocked.
After explaining so much, Daoist Jiutian noticed the fishing rod move slightly and went over to check. "After hearing all this, do you understand?"
Song Yin tentatively asked, "Lord Dao, do I understand...?"
"Hmph." The Nine Heavens Dao Lord chuckled. "Whether you understand or not is irrelevant. Ultimately, it's the fate of your cultivation world. If I hadn't lived in the cultivation world before my ascension, I certainly wouldn't be telling you this today. If you can overcome it, the cultivation world will continue to prosper; if you can't, the ascension path will be blocked, and no one in the cultivation world will ascend in the future. The worst-case scenario..."
Song Yin listened intently, because the Nine Heavens Dao Lord explained things much more clearly than her master.
"The spiritual energy of this place has been severed, and no one can cultivate here."
Song Yin's eyes widened: !
No way! She hasn't ascended yet!
Nine Heavens Dao Lord: "How did you discover that the black-clad swordsman would teach you swordsmanship?"
She knew the answer to this question. Song Yin composed herself and answered seriously, "After trying it many times, I noticed the illogical parts and understood them after thinking about them carefully."
"You've mastered both alchemy and swordsmanship, and these are the inheritances of my Dao Palace... If you ever ascend to the Immortal Realm, you may come to the Nine Heavens Dao Palace." The Nine Heavens Dao Lord unleashed another burst of spiritual energy, and cloud patterns appeared on the inside of Song Yin's wrist before flashing and disappearing.
Regardless of what it is, it's enough to express gratitude to the Daoist Lord. Song Yin bowed again and said, "Thank you, Daoist Lord."
...
...
Hmm? Why is there no sound? The Nine Heavens Dao Lord talks so much, why is he silent now? Song Yin quietly raised her eyes.
Only a fishing rod remained before them; there was no trace of the Nine Heavens Dao Lord.
Has the Nine Heavens Dao Lord disappeared?
The thought had barely formed when the scene before him changed, and the black-clad swordsman reappeared.
Song Yin: "You're back?"
She asked the swordsman in black, "Senior, how much time has passed?"
Inside Danque Peak of the Immortal Cloud Sect, Song Yin's Soul Lamp shone brightly once again, this time very steadily, without any further changes.
The swordsman in black: "It won't even take the time it takes to drink a cup of tea."
Song Yin thought to herself, but she felt that an hour had passed.
The black-clad swordsman said, "Since the Dao Lord personally met with you and returned you safely, it means he has accepted you." Halfway through his sentence, the black-clad swordsman felt a mark on the inside of Song Yin's wrist.
The tone shifted abruptly, "Since you will have the opportunity to join the Nine Heavens Dao Palace in the future, I can tell you some things in advance. The sword technique passed down through the sword path is the Nine Heavens Sword Technique. This technique is little known in the cultivation world, but everyone in the Nine Heavens Dao Palace knows it. It is similar to the basic techniques of sects in the cultivation world."
"I will teach you the remaining moves directly, so you don't need to practice and learn them by sparring with me again and again."
Song Yin: "Thank you, senior. I have a question. After I finish learning, will I still need to spar with you?"
The swordsman in black said, "No need. The fact that the Dao Lord personally saw you means that you have passed the test."
The pressure from the Nine Heavens Dao Lord wasn't for nothing!
The remaining time will be used for the black-clad swordsman to demonstrate and teach the complete Nine Heavens Sword Technique...
Song Yin concentrated on her studies, striving to memorize everything after just one reading.
Finally, the swordsman in black sheathed his sword, saying, "You have learned all the moves; all that's left is to practice diligently."
Song Yin sheathed her sword, knowing that the time for parting had come. "Senior, I have a few questions before we part, and I hope you can answer them."
The swordsman in black nodded in acquiescence.
When facing the Nine Heavens Dao Lord, Song Yin couldn't think of any questions to ask, fearing that asking the wrong one would cost her her life. Now, facing the black-clad swordsman, she knew her life was not threatened, so many questions came to mind.
Song Yin: "Senior, are you also from the Upper Realm?"
The swordsman in black: "Yes."
Having received the answer, Song Yin was still confused: "But aren't people from the Upper Realm forbidden from coming to the Immortal Cultivation Realm?"
"Do you think I'm human?" the black-clad swordsman asked meaningfully.
Song Yin: "Isn't that right?"
"Of course." The black-clad swordsman stood with his hands behind his back. "The me you see is merely a wisp of my soul left behind before my ascension, so in your eyes I am at the peak of the Mahayana stage." In reality, his cultivation level had already far surpassed the Mahayana stage.
"The Nine Heavens Secret Realm is..." Song Yin pointed upwards with her index finger, afraid that if she mentioned Dao Jun, Dao Jun would suddenly exert pressure on her again, "was it specially created?"
The swordsman in black: "Yes."
Song Yin didn't ask any further questions about the reason for the existence of the Nine Heavens Secret Realm. The two questions above had already answered her biggest doubts, and now only one question remained.
"Senior, is the sword in your hand a reward for passing the inheritance test?"
The swordsman in black raised his sword. "How did you know?"
Song Yin: "After passing the test of alchemy inheritance, there is the Nine Heavens Secret Treasure Furnace as a reward. I guess the reward for sword inheritance should be the sword in the hands of the senior."
"You've passed the Dao of Alchemy inheritance?" the black-clad swordsman murmured. "No wonder the Dao Lord took you away from the cultivation world to see you in person."
The sword in the black-clad swordsman's hand floated down to Song Yin's side.
The black-clad swordsman said, "The Nine Heavens Creation Sword is a must-have for everyone in the Dao Palace. Its grade isn't high, but it's enough for you in the cultivation world."
Song Yin's hand trembled. "Isn't ninth rank considered high?"
The black-clad swordsman said, "It's considered ordinary, so you can take this one. We'll provide new ones as rewards in later dungeons."
Song Yin: "The Nine Heavens Secret Treasure Furnace, too?"
The black-clad swordsman said, "The rewards from several inheritances are all the same. Also, remember to carefully check the Nine Heavens Secret Treasure Furnace after you leave. I remember they said that the furnace contains a cluster of Nine Heavens Divine Fire."
Song Yin's hands trembled, and she was in a daze.
When Song Yin went out through the door, she was still in the same state.
Song Yin landed by the lake in a daze, walked past the place where people were fighting in a daze, and was pulled away by Elder Feng in the middle of the battle in a daze.
Upon seeing this, the three men in black tacitly let Song Yin go.
"Another one who failed to inherit the legacy. Look at her silly appearance, she must have gone through inhuman torture."
In a daze, Song Yin was led by Elder Feng to the others.
"Yinyin, what's wrong?"
"Junior sister? What happened?"
"Are you alright, sister?"
Several people noticed that Song Yin was not in a good state, and they anxiously surrounded her to ask what was wrong.
Song Yin said in a daze, "I'm fine, I just know too much and need to process it."
What exactly is the Immortal Realm? In their eyes, ninth-tier magical artifacts are just the most ordinary kind.
And that Nine Heavens Dao Lord, he can evade the Heavenly Dao with a single move. Can the Heavenly Dao really be evaded? Huh?
Song Yin raised her hand to look at the inside of her wrist; it was smooth and without any cloud-like patterns. This mark was extraordinary; she would need it to enter the Nine Heavens Dao Palace.
Although she is unaware of the influence of the Nine Heavens Dao Palace in the Immortal Realm, it does not prevent her from receiving her admission notice ahead of time.
Elder Pei: "What could possibly shock you to the point of daze?"
Song Yin did not answer, still immersed in her own world.
Soon, Elder Fu also came out from inside the door. Elder Wen, who was fighting on the other side, pretended to be outmatched and slowly withdrew from the battle.
The ten members of the Immortal Firmament Sect have reunited.
Elder Fu: "Let's go, let's leave the central area first."
On their way out, a man in black blocked their path, while the remaining two were still fighting with the others.
"Another period of fusion, presumably they have obtained the inheritance."
Elder Fu's face darkened. Mentioning the inheritance reminded him of his dark past during the trials, and what was even more infuriating was that he hadn't even obtained the inheritance.
Elder Fu was furious: "Inheritance my foot! Are you here to laugh at me for not getting the inheritance?"
Song Yin snapped out of her daze and looked closely at the man in black in front of her. His clothing style was similar to that of the swordsman in black.
Elder Pei cautioned, "He is in the Mahayana stage and specializes in seizing inheritances."
As if a bucket of water had been poured over his head, Elder Fu instantly sobered up.
Song Yin: Mahayana stage? Could you also be from the Nine Heavens Dao Palace?
Not knowing why he wanted to seize the inheritance, Song Yin did not act rashly.
Fortunately for Song Yin, the men in black did not pay attention to the others and focused their attention on Elder Fu.
Having inherited two treasures, acquired two ninth-tier magic artifacts, and even met the black-clad shopkeeper, Song Yin exclaimed, "Ah, this... this..."
Suddenly, the entire secret realm shook violently.
As Song Yin flew through the air, she saw the monsters below scattering in panic and the trees collapsing.
The black-clad men who had stopped Elder Fu ceased their attack. "Tsk, consider yourself lucky." They would stop once the secret realm began to close.
The so-called "stealing of the inheritance" is actually a way to allow those who receive the inheritance to better integrate with the cultivation technique. After all, the technique is already memorized in someone else's mind, so how can they steal it? At most, they can steal the Nine Heavens series of magical artifacts that the other person has taken.
Xia Xining: "He's gone?"
Elder Fu looked in one direction, "Fly to the left, the exit is over there!"
The secret realm was about to close, and everyone began to rush towards the exit.
Senior Dou, who was initially besieged, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone said he had no inheritance, but they wouldn't listen and kept thinking he did.
After finishing the fight, the exhausted elder of the Heavenly Stems Sect asked, "Old Dou, do you really not have any inheritance in your possession?"
Senior Dou: "Thank you for what happened earlier. I'm very grateful for your help. I'm also interested in the inheritance from the sect, but unfortunately, my strength is insufficient to obtain it."
The elders of the Heavenly Stems Sect ultimately did not attack their friend over the inheritance, but instead helped him.
"If you can't even get it at the Integration Stage, I really don't know who can." The elder of the Heavenly Stems Sect clicked his tongue. "I saw people from the Immortal Firmament Sect getting involved just now, but it was all a sham fight; they didn't show any real strength."
Speaking of the Immortal Cloud Sect, Senior Dou couldn't help but think of Song Yin again. She was the swordswoman who, even after he left, relentlessly challenged the black-clad swordsmen. So many swordsmen inside claimed they wouldn't give up, but in the end, not one of them persisted in the challenges; only she continued.
Looking back now, it really taught him a lesson.
By this time, most people had already left the secret realm.
After Senior Dou came out, he took stock of the fellow disciples who had come with him.
Song Yin and the others were just a few dozen meters away.
Senior Dou took the elixir and then, despite his injuries, walked towards Song Yin and Shen Yuzhu.
"Senior Dou?" The first person to see Senior Dou coming was Shen Yuzhu.
Elder Fu turned around upon hearing the voice, "It's Elder Dou. How are your injuries?" Although he was surrounded, he was far luckier than the person in front of him, who had been surrounded by many people beforehand but managed to hold out until the secret realm closed.
Indeed, happiness is something that can be compared, and Elder Fu felt much better.
Senior Dou: "It's alright, I've already taken the pill. I came here because I have something to ask Song Yin."
"Ask me?" Song Yin pointed to herself.
Senior Dou: "What I want to ask is, when you were undergoing the test of inheritance, why did you keep challenging something that seemed impossible to accomplish?"
Song Yin: "So that's what you're asking about. The main reason I kept challenging them was that I found the black-clad swordsmen wouldn't harm us, which is why I kept challenging them."
"It's rare to find a swordsman at the peak of the Mahayana stage as a sparring partner, so naturally I don't want to waste my time."
As for passing the test, she would never tell outsiders.
"A sparring partner?!" Senior Dou thought he was going to hear some inspirational quotes, but he was met with reality instead.
Song Yin: "Yes, it's precisely because I'm a sparring partner that I keep taking on challenges. If there's a life-threatening situation and I still can't win, I'll definitely give up the challenge and choose to retreat into seclusion, just like everyone else."
Senior Dou: "Sparring partner? Sparring partner..." Right, why didn't he think of sparring partner?
Like everyone else, he regarded the inheritance he received after defeating the Black-Clad Swordsman as a resource, unaware that the Black-Clad Swordsman himself was also a resource.
After realizing what had happened, Senior Dou wanted to slap his thigh in frustration; he was filled with regret!
"Why didn't I think of sparring partners? I was only focused on meditation!" Senior Dou felt he had lost out big time, really lost out big time!
Who would have thought a test could be played like this! No wonder Song Yin couldn't stop hitting him, and even called on Shen Yuzhu later!
Elder Fu had never heard of using a Mahayana-stage sword cultivator undergoing trials as a sparring partner before. He looked at Song Yin incredulously, "Why don't you become an elder of Wanbaolou? I'll work for you. Trying to fleece the enemy instead... you really are..."
Elder Fu was at a loss for words. "So, did you ultimately receive the inheritance?"
Song Yin replied to Elder Fu, "Of course I can't get it. A group of people can't even defeat a Mahayana stage sword cultivator, how could I, a weak Nascent Soul cultivator, possibly win?"
"Too."
Song Yin didn't speak loudly, but the people who came to watch were deliberately listening.
Kang Ping was one of them. When he saw Senior Dou go to see Song Yin, he assumed it was to cause trouble for Song Yin or something else. After overhearing Song Yin's words, Kang Ping fell silent.
No, why would she think of using the black-clad swordsman as a sparring partner, while he didn't? Just because she's the number one swordsman in the Xuan Tian Tournament?
Kang Ping's silence broke his defenses, and he felt regret!
Well, now Song Yin and Shen Yuzhu have gotten all the benefits, and he hasn't gotten anything!
Senior Dou returned to his sect members with regret, sighing repeatedly.
"well."
Why did the elder sigh?
"Sigh!" It's better not to think about it, because once you start, you feel even more cheated. Your heart is bleeding. You didn't get any benefits, and you even got beaten up afterward.
"Elder Dou, I heard you've received a legacy?"
Here we go again, Senior Dou sighed, "There's no successor."
Over here, Song Yin said to the others, "I have something to discuss with the Wuji Sect members."
Elder Fu: "Go, and come back quickly."
"Okay."
Song Yin strode towards the group from the Wuji Sect.
Song Yin: "Excuse me, everyone, may I ask which senior is Uncle Mingzhu?"
Martial Aunt Mingzhu glanced over and asked, "I'm Martial Aunt Mingzhu. Do you know where she is?"
Song Yin: "I knew at first, but at the last moment I didn't know where she went, but I brought her body out."
"What do you mean by saying that you brought her body out?" Martial Uncle Mingzhu unleashed her full aura, attempting to use her intimidation to force Song Yin to tell the truth.
Having experienced the oppressive power of the Nine Heavens Dao Lord, Song Yin can say without exaggeration that she has mastered the skill.
Despite the pressure from the other party, Song Yin truthfully said, "She died unexpectedly during the inheritance trial. I protected her complete soul, but due to an accident, her soul disappeared."
Upon hearing this, the Wuji Sect members glared at them with eyes as sharp as knives.
Song Yin released Mingzhu's body, "She died as soon as she entered, and now her soul is gone. I can understand your thoughts and attitudes. The most important thing right now is not to question me. The entrance to the secret realm is about to close completely. Finding Mingzhu's soul is the priority."
As Song Yin spoke, cloud-like patterns appeared briefly on the inside of her wrist before disappearing.
Among the Wuji Sect members, a female cultivator stepped forward. She gently lifted Mingzhu's body and said to Song Yin, "Thank you for bringing her body out."
"Ahhh!" Another sound came from the exit, and many people looked over, only to find it was a spirit.
Someone asked, "Why was her soul able to emerge from the secret realm unharmed, while my senior brother's soul couldn't be found at all?"
"My junior sister's soul couldn't be found after the accident."
The emergence of Mingzhu's divine soul from the secret realm gave hope to the cultivators whose companions had died. However, they waited and waited until the exit of the secret realm was completely closed, but their companions' divine souls never appeared.
Mingzhu, in her spiritual state, felt dizzy. She remembered that Song Yin had endured immense pain before losing consciousness.
After regaining consciousness, he found himself kicked out of the secret realm.
Yes, it was a real kick. A man in black dragged her to the exit of the secret realm and then kicked her out. Although it was unseemly, she was still quite grateful.
"Uncle-Master." Mingzhu controlled her divine soul in mid-air.
"Mingzhu?" Martial Uncle Mingzhu hurriedly flew up and asked in mid-air, "What's wrong with you?"
Mingzhu reveals her true nature in front of acquaintances: "I'm sorry, Uncle-Master, I was wiped out as soon as I went in. It was thanks to Song Yin protecting my soul that I was able to see everyone again. She was also very considerate in preserving my body very well, and she even cleaned the bloodstains off my face."
"I told you before that Song Yin is a very nice person, now you believe me, right?"
Uncle-Master Mingzhu lowered his guard against Song Yin slightly, but seeing Mingzhu like this, he really...
Uncle Mingzhu landed back on the ground and changed his tone: "I'm sorry about earlier, and thank you for protecting Mingzhu's soul and body."
At this moment, the female cultivator holding Mingzhu's body said, "Mingzhu's body is well preserved, and her soul is also intact. After we go back, we can find a way to bring her back to life and let her soul return to her body."
Mingzhu was astonished, as if struck by a tremendous surprise. "I thought I could only be a ghost cultivator from now on, but I never expected to be able to return to life?"
"The conditions for resurrection are very demanding. The two most important conditions are that the body is perfectly preserved and the soul is intact. You have met both of these conditions. Although the conditions for what needs to be done are difficult, at least there is a direction and hope." The weight on Uncle Mingzhu's heart was lifted. "I can also give my senior brother an explanation when I go back."
The female cultivator continued, "Even if all the requirements for resurrection are met, the success of resurrection still requires the right timing, location, and people. I suggest that Mingzhu continue to practice ghost cultivation techniques and we can find opportunities gradually during her cultivation process."
Uncle Mingzhu: "Don't worry, your uncle will definitely help you return to life."
Mingzhu calmed down and said, "Senior Sister is right. Ghost cultivators can have a new physical body when they reach a certain level, so I can accept whether or not they can be reborn. Uncle, you don't need to be like this. Relax."
She floated over to Song Yin's side again, "Although I thanked you before, I still want to say thank you again."
Song Yin smiled and accepted the thanks. "Keep cultivating. Come visit me at the Immortal Cloud Sect when you've cultivated a physical body."
With her admirers cheering her on, Mingzhu was instantly energized. "It's a promise!"
Song Yin: "Of course."
After a few more brief words, Song Yin flew back to the Immortal Cloud Sect. On her way back, she glanced back at Mingzhu.
You wouldn't believe it until you see it! It seems Mingzhu's Martial Uncle...
Song Yin quickly looked away, perhaps she had guessed wrong.
Shen Yuzhu knew about Mingzhu's situation; he had just briefly explained it to the others.
"It was sent back?"
Song Yin: "Mm."
Elder Fu: "Ten people came out, and ten people went back. This is the best outcome. Let's set off back to the sect!"
The flying boat was launched, and everyone boarded it.
The place that once gathered many high-level cultivators has returned to tranquility, awaiting the arrival of the next group of cultivators.
It was midday, and the sun was shining brightly.
Song Yin stood on the deck, looking down at the cultivation world below.
Why was it only Mingzhu's soul that flew out of the secret realm? None of the other souls were seen. Where did they go? Reincarnation?
Within the closed Nine Heavens Secret Realm, the souls of deceased cultivators wander.
The man in black approached these spirits.
"Do you wish to pass on all your knowledge? You can find a suitable place within the secret realm and leave your legacy there..."
The ten gates on the lake sank back into the water, then the whirlpool disappeared, and the surface returned to calm. The fleeing demonic beasts also stopped and returned to their territories. In the inheritance trial space, a new Nine Heavens Secret Treasure Furnace stood within, and a new Nine Heavens Creation Sword appeared in the black-clad swordsman's hand...
"What?! You obtained the inheritance of weapon crafting?!"
Inside the flying boat room, Elder Fu let out a thunderous roar. Fortunately, this was the only flying boat in the sky heading back towards the Immortal Cloud Sect.
Why was Elder Fu the most agitated? Because he went in and gained nothing, only to be beaten up when he came out. He failed the tests of both of the inherited masters he encountered; who wouldn't be angry?
Inside the room, Xia Xining covered her ears. "Elder Fu, we're taking stock of our gains now."
Everyone took stock of what they had gained, and Elder Cang had gained the most.
Elder Fu felt as if he had eaten twenty pounds of lemons, extremely sour: "And you, Cang Huai, usually so quiet and honest, yet you've gained the most from everyone here! You have everything, from rare treasures to inheritances!"
Elder Cang: "That's not necessarily true. Song Yin hasn't come in yet to tell us about her gains."
Hearing the noise, Song Yin went to the room. As soon as she entered, Elder Cang said, "I didn't get the inheritance, but I did get a lot of spiritual herbs, so it wasn't a wasted trip."
She actually gained more than everyone else combined, but she couldn't say it, and didn't want to say it.
Of course, there are some things that need to be said, such as those concerning Nie Zhengchu, but she plans to communicate directly with the sect leader. Matters of great importance to the cultivation world must be handled by those who are tall and strong; she can simply provide support from the rear.
Shen Yuzhu: "The new swordsmanship I learned from the black-clad swordsman can be considered a gain, right?"
Elder Fu immediately regained his composure. "What new sword technique?"
Song Yin lied through her teeth: "I only learned a few new moves, which can't be considered new sword techniques, but if I had to say, I would say I've gained something."
Everyone was completely fooled and believed Song Yin's lies.
Following everyone's advice, Elder Fu informed the sect of the gains from the trip while still on the flying boat.
Therefore, when Song Yin returned and refined an eighth-grade pill in front of Qi Zibo, Qi Zibo was completely dumbfounded and stood motionless like a statue.

Author's Note: When Qi Zibo learned that his rebellious disciple was more skilled in alchemy than him: [Clown]
Song Yin: OI, Old Deng, let me sit in your elder's seat too [sunglasses]
Yinyin had a great day and said she wanted to share it with everyone.
