Chen Luo vaguely recalled a scene from long ago.
Many years ago, the desperate old man Sun brought his family to Gumo Mountain and became a vassal family under the name of Gumo Mountain. The embarrassed and downtrodden Ding Zhao met his junior brother and became a registered disciple of Gumo Mountain.
“Practice is like this, it’s a lonely road.”
The flower-backed turtle said something nearby, and it was rare that he didn't have that annoying expression on his face.
"Let's go."
Chen Luo collected his thoughts and said nothing more. Just as the flower-backed turtle said, cultivation is a lonely road. On this road, everyone is moving forward.
Just keep walking and don't ask about the road ahead.
If you are tired, stop and rest for a while, then pick up the faith of the old man and continue to move forward. Maybe one day in the future he will stop, and at that time someone new will take over his faith and continue to move forward carrying his last wish.
This is inheritance.
After paying homage to the deceased, Chen Luo returned to the mountain.
Mu Xiaoyu and Ao Ye recounted in detail everything that had happened during the years since he was away.
"Who is in charge of Qionghua Sect now?"
Chen Luo thought of the Seven Ancestors of Qionghua, but he didn't expect that these seven predecessors had not returned yet. The Dragon Tomb was like a completely sealed off desperate place, easy to enter but difficult to exit. So far, no one except Chen Luo has escaped from it.
Knowing the current situation, Chen Luo prepared to find an opportunity later to rescue Gu He and the other seven.
The Star Tomb is a desperate place for others, but for Chen Luo, it is just a place to visit.
"It's Xiong Linshan, the true disciple of Taiyuan Peak."
"Xionglin Mountain?"
Chen Luo recalled for a moment, but had no impression.
However, Qionghua Sect is so large that he cannot possibly know everyone in the seven main peaks. In times of crisis, there are always some people who can turn the tide. These people are born to meet the needs of the times. Xiong Linshan was able to stabilize Qionghua Sect after he left, which in itself represented a kind of ability.
"Where are Madam Red, Blood Knife and the others?"
"Dead."
Mu Xiaoyu didn't describe the process in detail, but these two short words roughly showed the hardships that Mu Xiaoyu and his companions experienced when they fled. The decline of Qionghua Sect had its moments.
When Fairy Lingchi steps into the mountain gate, it begins.
This woman is also a ruthless person. In the past, she seemed harmless under the light of the Qionghua Seventh Ancestor. She contributed all the "Spirit Pool" of the sect and helped the Qionghua Seventh Ancestor to set up the formation. The brain of the transformed monster on Chen Luo's body was what the Taixu Patriarch Gu He helped him get from the Spirit Pool.
Afterwards, she used the spiritual weapons of the Seven Ancestors of Qionghua to help her cut up the remains of the divine beast and entered into a state of death retreat.
No one thought highly of her at that time, not even Chen Luo.
The secret method of Fairy Lingchi to break through the barriers was learned from the inheritance of Yin Yang Demon Lord, a path that Yin Yang Demon Lord himself failed to follow. Fairy Lingchi, a latecomer, actually succeeded. Judging from her record, it should not be fake.
"Is the problem with the remains of the spirit, or with Fairy Lingchi herself?"
Countless possibilities flashed through Chen Luo's mind.
"What's going on, Master Xue?"
When Chen Luo had pinned down the foundation-building cultivator, he had heard some content, among which was the Master Xue mentioned by the foundation-building cultivator.
"The new Lord of Black Stone City is Elder Lingchi's nephew, named Xue Yida, who is at the early stage of Jindan. Three years ago, he came to the evil cultivation land to take up the position of Lord of the City. Gumo Mountain was suppressed by him many times. Half a month ago, he gave Senior Sister a marriage certificate, saying that he wanted to form a Taoist couple with Senior Sister and practice the immortal way together."
Ao Ye explained what had happened in just a few words.
"If we don't kill this kind of person, why keep him alive?" The flower-backed turtle said with disdain beside him.
Fortunately, he did not accept his apprentice, otherwise he would have been angered to death by his apprentice.
"The wedding will be held in three days?"
"Two and a half days left."
"Then let him live for two more days." Chen Luo ignored this question.
An ant is not worth his special attention. He can just crush it to death when the time comes.
With Chen Luo's words, the two finally felt relieved. Xianhe Chengfeng took the opportunity to ask about the matters that the human race needs to pay attention to when building the foundation. He now has only one disciple, Du Qiuxian, and all his hopes are pinned on this disciple. Chen Luo did not hide anything. After telling some specific details, he gave Chengfeng a few pills, which were all elixirs needed for the demon race to practice, which could improve Chengfeng's cultivation and allow him to condense the demon pill as soon as possible.
During the trip to the demon world, Chen Luo had a lot of similar materials in his hands.
After sending away Xianhe Chengfeng and his two disciples, Chen Luo turned his attention to Du Qiuxian and the uncle and nephew of the Ji family, especially Du Qiuxian. This child was the biological son of the eldest brother Du De. Du De had asked him for help before leaving. Naturally, Chen Luo would not leave it alone.
"Where's your father?"
"He passed away seven years ago." Du Qiuxian's eyes darkened.
Even though he knew this would be the result, Chen Luo couldn't help but sigh.
The eldest brother Du De was an old friend who came from Tiannan Territory with Chen Luo. Unlike the others, Du De was very determined to pursue the Tao. Unfortunately, hard work often cannot change fate. He failed to build his foundation several times, which caused Du De's blood to be greatly damaged. Later, he returned to Heishan Village to start a family and a career, and then he had his son Du Qiuxian.
Chen Luo still remembers the last time he met his senior brother Du De. He and his wife invited him to dinner together, and their expressions when they talked about their son Du Qiuxian.
But no one expected that that meeting would be their last.
"Come with me to pay respect to him when you return."
"If my father knew about this, he would definitely be very happy." Du Qiuxian responded.
Chen Luo reached out and carefully checked Du Qiuxian's cultivation level, and took out a third-level magic weapon from the cave gourd and gave it to him. The worst thing he had now was a third-level magic weapon, and any lower-level one would have no effect on him. This third-level magic weapon was found in the spoils of war, and no one knew which Taoist friend left it behind. Chen Luo also had a few fourth-level magic weapons, but he did not give them to Du Qiuxian. Possessing magic weapons that are too far beyond one's own realm is not protection, but a source of trouble.
"Practice well, I will help you with the matter of the foundation-building pill."
The Foundation Establishment Pill in the Tiannan Region is monopolized, and even now, this monopoly has not been relaxed.
Ao Ye was able to build his foundation because Chen Luo left behind a batch of pills when he left. Now that so many years have passed, the foundation-building pills have been almost consumed. However, this problem is easy for Chen Luo to solve. With his current alchemy attainments, he can easily refine dozens of foundation-building pills with just one furnace.
"Thank you, uncle."
Du Qiuxian nodded and then stepped back.
"Senior, I..."
"You get out too."
Chen Luo interrupted the old man from the Ji family and his eyes fell on his nephew.
I didn't notice it before, but now I see the problem after a closer look. Old man Ji was stunned for a moment, looked back at his nephew, and could only retreat cautiously. He had seen the methods of the big man in front of him. The foundation-building cultivators were no different from ants in front of him.
"Should I call you Zhu Jie or Ji Xiao Bao?"
Chen Luo looked at the little boy in front of him calmly. In his external brain, the brain of the old fox in the inn was highly active, and several brains that had grown up with Chen Luo for a long time also sensed a familiar breath.
'The method of transferring souls and changing fate.'
'Zhu Jie of the San Xiu Alliance.'
When Chen Luo was still in the Qi Refining Realm, he had a good friend from the Loose Cultivators Alliance in Mushan City. This person was Zhu Jie. At that time, many of Chen Luo's materials for alchemy were obtained through Zhu Jie. Later, Chen Luo met this person again and learned that she had successfully built her foundation and became a high-level member of the Loose Cultivators Alliance.
After that, the two of them had no more encounters. They met here again after a round. No wonder Xianhe Chengfeng felt familiar with the little boy. Zhu Jie had eaten a lot of pills made by Chen Luo. Outsiders might not be able to sense this kind of aura, but Xianhe, who was sensitive to aura, could see it at a glance.
Ignoring the feedback from his external brain, Chen Luo carefully looked at the boy in front of him.
He looked about seven or eight years old, with a round face and a pair of bright black eyes. His spiritual root aptitude was also very good, with top-grade dual spiritual roots, which was a treasure that countless people fought for in the Tiannan region. A child with dual spiritual roots, born in a family of immortal cultivators, had never entered Taoism, and had no spiritual power at all until now.
Hearing Chen Luo's name, the little boy's eyes became dazed, as if he had remembered some forgotten memory. After a moment of daze, his eyes changed, and his aura also changed, but this change was not thorough, giving people a very strange feeling.
"I am not Zhu Jie."
After a long pause, the little boy finally spoke.
"My name is Ji Xiaobao."
"The Ji family's soul transfer technique?"
Chen Luo became slightly interested. This magical power gave him the feeling of a low-profile version of the "body possession method" or the "reincarnation method" from the demon world.
"It's an incomplete magical skill. If the mountain master is interested, I can give it to you." Ji Xiaobao stretched out his hand and a pure white jade slip flew out from his sleeve. A black light flew out from his brow and merged into the jade slip.
A person who has not even comprehended spiritual power can actually control the jade slips.
The life turtle next to him also became interested. He stared at the little boy for a moment and said something.
"How come this fluctuation is like the reincarnation method of the demon saint?"
In the demon world, the most powerful one is the demon saint. Among the demon saint's skills, the most famous one is their "reincarnation method". The demon saint avoided the upper limit of lifespan with the "reincarnation method", practiced to the sixth level, and became the top power in the demon world. The corresponding Yujian Sect is the same. The Yujian Sect practices the "sword cultivation method". Everything is stored in the "heart sword". As long as you can find your sword, you can get everything from your "previous life".
Taking the jade slip, Chen Luo briefly glanced through it.
I found that this technique is indeed similar to the old fox's method of taking over a body, but it is also somewhat different. When Yi transferred the soul, there were many missing parts. In this way, the "soul" that Yi transferred would be affected by the original body and it would be difficult to "reborn". However, the old fox's method of taking over a body is different. He would devour the soul of the original body, and the two combined into one became stronger.
However, the soul transfer technique is also stronger than the body possession technique in some aspects, and the biggest difference is "fit".
This kind of fit is not visible at a lower level, but it will be very obvious after the Nascent Soul stage. The most obvious feature is the Heavenly Tribulation. The body and soul of the person who takes over the body are not compatible, and this slight defect will be infinitely magnified under the Heavenly Tribulation until the person dies. But the Soul Transfer Technique is different. It can make up for this slight defect and allow the soul transferee to have the possibility of successfully overcoming the tribulation.
