Taoist palace.
The smoke was still there, and the old ancestor Hao Ri, who was meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly stretched out his right hand. Then he saw a stream of white light flying in from outside. It was the jade Ruyi that he had given to the star master Tianshu before. Looking at the spiritual energy that came back, the old ancestor Hao Ri was a little confused.
He sensed a feeling of fear from Yu Ruyi.
what happened?
He subconsciously reached for the jade handle of the jade ruyi, and suddenly froze when his palm touched the handle. There was a rice-sized gap on the round and flawless jade ruyi handle, and from the traces, it seemed to have been caused by some blunt object.
"What's wrong?"
Sensing the fluctuations in Patriarch Hao Ri's aura, the female cultivator next to him asked.
"The jade ruyi was broken."
Patriarch Hao Ri looked a little gloomy, feeling that the situation was a little out of control. He suspected that some old immortal creature had died early and broken the rules.
"Broken?"
The female cultivator glanced over and saw the gap on the jade ruyi.
"This level of damage could only have happened to those few people. They are finished."
"It could also be Shangjiujia."
The silent middle-aged scholar said quietly.
This speculation is what they are most worried about. They are not afraid of Dao Sect members of the same level, but once the enemy exceeds their level, no amount of planning will be of any use.
"Won't."
Patriarch Hao Ri restrained his expression and spoke calmly. He was confident when he said this, and he must have planned it long ago.
"Tianshu is back."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Tianshu Star Lord, who only had a Nascent Soul left, flying in from outside. As soon as he entered the hall, Tianshu Star Lord transformed his body, reshaped a body with his spiritual power, knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the three ancestors above, and said.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you."
"Is it the old ghost Xuanyin? Or the master of Ziyu Cave?" The female cultivator looked at Tianshu Star Master and found that he only had his Nascent Soul left, so she asked.
“Neither.”
Tianshu Star Lord had a bitter look on his face, and then he told what happened to him after he left the Star Gate. From meeting Chen Luo to being beaten and abandoning his body to escape, he told the whole process in great detail, even describing the chessboard that Chen Luo used when he attacked.
The three elders above were silent during the whole process.
I originally thought that it was an old ghost of the same level who had done the trick, but it turned out to be a junior in the early stage of the Spiritual Transformation, an ascender that I had never heard of before!
"What about Tianquan?"
After a long silence, Patriarch Hao Ri asked a question.
"The disciple is incompetent."
Hearing this question, the Lord of Tianshu Star lowered his head even lower. He hadn't had time to go to Tianquan Star yet. He was beaten back in the first battle and injured his ancestor's jade ruyi. The most important thing was that the person who defeated him was two realms lower than him.
Defeated by someone who was two levels higher than him!
“It’s really incompetent.”
Even the best-tempered middle-aged Confucian scholar couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but say something.
Hearing these words, Tianshu Star Lord felt even more ashamed.
"Forget it, go down."
A trace of fatigue appeared on the face of Patriarch Hao Ri. He couldn't help but wonder if he had taken too much care of his subordinates in the past years, so that they couldn't even handle such a small matter.
"Disciple, I'm leaving."
Upon hearing this, Tianshu Star Lord immediately retreated.
"Tianxuan, go to Tianquan Star and make sure to find out what happened there. If it is also an enemy of this level, come back directly." Patriarch Haori said to the other side.
"yes."
The Star Lord Tianxuan walked out from nothingness, responded, and left the Taoist Palace.
"What about that Ascendant?"
The middle-aged Confucian scholar asked, Tianshu came back in such a mess, they must give an explanation, otherwise who will be afraid of them in the future? If everyone does not listen to them, the order of this Taoist sect will be in chaos.
"Catch him and make him into a puppet."
Patriarch Haori said in a calm tone.
"No matter who is behind him, as the first person to jump out, we must get rid of him, otherwise it will only cause more and more trouble later."
"Tianshu is no match for him, and the same goes for the others. We can't leave now."
boom!!
Before he could finish his words, the temple suddenly began to shake. The three of them quickly stopped chatting and began to work together to suppress the aura below. After a long time, the shaking temple finally calmed down. The things in the temple were smashed into a mess, and even the incense burner used for sacrifices below rolled to the wall, and the incense ash was scattered all over the floor.
Only the places where the three ancestors of the sun, moon and stars sat remained unchanged.
"Let the snake go."
Patriarch Haori pondered for a moment and made a decision. Then he waved his hand, and the chaotic things in the Taoist Palace began to flow back. The scattered oil lamps flew back to the corner of the wall, the lamp oil flowed back, and the wicks were re-ignited. The incense burner rolled back to the center, the scattered incense ashes returned to their original positions, and even the broken bamboo incense strangely returned to its original state.
"good."
The three of them nodded at the same time and agreed to this plan.
"Tianji, you go and do this."
The middle-aged scholar looked into the void. After he finished speaking, another figure appeared in the Taoist Palace. The Star Lord of Tianji, who was called over, was practicing. He stood up immediately after hearing the voice of the ancestor. The middle-aged scholar reached out and took a bamboo stick from the bamboo slip and handed it to the Star Lord of Tianji below.
"Throw this thing into the back hill, and the snake will understand what we mean."
"yes."
The Star Lord of Tianji bowed his head in response, took the bamboo slips and retreated.
He had seen the snake that the ancestor mentioned before. It was the guardian beast of their Star Sect, the Star Python! A sixth-rank monster, its seniority in the Star Sect was second only to the three ancestors. Even if the star masters met the snake, they would bow their heads and call it "Uncle Master".
After arranging things, the three of them fell silent again.
A slight vibration was heard again at the bottom of the Taoist Palace. Patriarch Hao Ri stretched out his hand, and the burning breath gathered along his palm, and then he pressed it gently, suppressing the last trace of the aftermath. After suppressing the aftermath, a trace of golden light flashed in the pupils of Patriarch Hao Ri, and his eyes penetrated the ground of the Taoist Palace and looked underground.
The area below the Taoist Palace had long been hollowed out by them.
Hot lava rolled below. There were eight stone platforms in the corners of the circle, and eight turtle-shaped stone statues were lying on top of the stone platforms. These stone statues looked like dragon turtles, with antlers on their heads and sharp teeth. Dark brown iron chains extended from the mouths of the eight dragon turtles and wound around the high platform in the middle, where a dried corpse in gray clothes was sitting cross-legged.
"It's almost there. Just one more cycle of rebirth and the embryo will be ready."
Following the direction that Patriarch Hao Ri was looking, the middle-aged Confucian scholar and the female cultivator next to him also showed similar expressions.
Refining immortal weapon!
That's their plan.
When Baixian Cave was destroyed in the past, the three of them snatched a corpse from the ruins of Baixian Cave. This corpse is the first treasure on the list of rewards of the Star Gate - the immortal corpse! No one knows where Baixian Cave got this immortal corpse from, nor does anyone know the identity of this immortal corpse.
After obtaining the immortal corpse, they comprehended it for nearly a thousand years, and finally found traces of sacrifice on the immortal corpse!
The cultivators of Baixian Cave attempted to refine the corpse of the immortal into a corpse puppet. If this step succeeded, the entire world of immortal cultivation would crawl at the feet of Baixian Cave. Unfortunately, they failed. This immortal corpse did not have the potential to become a zombie.
Following this line of thought, the three ancestors of the stars, the sun, the moon and the stars, thought of another way.
This is the path that the Star Gate is best at.
Refining equipment!
Immortal weapons cannot be made with ordinary materials, but what if the materials are immortal bones? Using human bones to refine weapons is the idea proposed by Ouyang Lian. At the beginning, Hao Ri Patriarch wanted Ouyang Lian to practice reincarnation, just to make use of his talent. It's a pity that Ouyang Lian was only a Nascent Soul until his death. For the Fanxu Patriarch, Nascent Soul cultivators are too weak.
He was so weak that he was not even qualified to listen to this plan. After Ouyang Lian died, Patriarch Hao Ri never asked about him again. He sent his body to the Yunduan Mountains and buried him with other disciples of the Qunxing Sect.
Dead people have no value.
A few days later, a dark cloud covered the sky.
The moment they saw this black cloud, all sounds in the Ziqing Star Region disappeared, and many people who were watching in secret also withdrew their gazes. For a moment, the whole world was silent.
"Even the snake has been sent out. It seems that the rumors are true."
"These three old fellows really dare to think of refining immortal tools. Have they forgotten the lesson of Baixian Cave?"
“There are always people who think they are special.”
After a brief exchange of auras hidden in the dark, they disappeared again. For a moment, the turbulent environment in the Star Gate suddenly calmed down.
Three days later.
Tianquan star field.
After absorbing Ouyang Lian's brain, Chen Luo spent only half a day to refine a magical instrument to conceal his aura. He also refined a set for Shan Tao and Huabeigui. With this thing, the Star Gate's pursuit of them was cut off at once. The three of them stared at the Star Gate's star python and left the Ziqing Star Region openly.
After leaving the core of the conflict, the emotions of the three people suddenly relaxed.
Chen Luo did not cause trouble again. The gains from the Ziqing Star Domain were enough for him to digest for a while. With the sponsorship of his friends from the Star Gate, he quickly gained a foothold in the Tianquan Star Domain. The number of his men was under his control, and they spread silently like a virus.
Just like the Heart Demon Sect in the past, under his infiltration, the lower-level disciples gradually changed their flags and joined the "Evergreen Sect".
With the help of these people, Master Chen lived an increasingly comfortable life.
The years are quiet and good.
Chen Luo bought a small courtyard in Xiongwang City on Tianquan Star, suppressed his aura to the foundation-building stage, and mixed with the casual cultivators in Xiongwang City. None of the people from the Star Sect who were flying around noticed him, as they were busy chasing the thugs who killed the core disciples of the Star Sect.
A thief in the God Transformation Realm!
No one would look at the ants at their feet. In the eyes of these Taoist disciples, refining Qi and building foundation are just the bottom level ants, a realm that can be achieved as long as one has spiritual roots.
The spiritual energy in this upper world controlled by the Star Gate is so abundant.
"The dough sticks are a little overcooked, Lao Xu, your cooking skills have declined."
Putting two copper coins on the table, Chen Luo stood up and gave some suggestions to the noodle stall owner. (End of this chapter)
