Chapter 89: The Stealing Sect
The death of a Qi Refining cultivator is much weaker than the death of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
There was no brilliant fireworks-like spectacle like the wonders of heaven and earth, only two red clouds suddenly appeared in the sky.
"Qi-refining monk Sikong Yi, who had practiced Taoism for thirty-five years. In the Congyun Sea, he was killed by Qi-refining monk Li Fan..."
"Qi-refining cultivator Baili Chen had been practicing Taoism for three years. In the Congyun Sea, he was killed by Qi-refining cultivator Li Fan...
"Now that I am dead, my Dao has disappeared and I will return it to Heaven!"
…
Under the fiery clouds, Li Fan stood quietly, stroking the Stealing Heaven and Changing the Sun Order in his hand.
It took a long time before he suppressed the greed in his heart.
"My dear, what a pity..."
"That's not my way."
The Stealing Heaven and Changing the Sun Order is the most precious treasure of the Stealing Heaven and Changing the Sun Sect.
The Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun Sect is a secret sect that has existed in the world since ancient times.
It is different from other sects that founded their own schools and recruited many disciples.
The Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun Sect does not have a fixed headquarters, and there is often only one successor in each generation.
Therefore, when the catastrophe came, the other sects were all in a bloody apocalyptic scene.
It has little impact on the Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun Sect.
The reason why the Toutianhuanri Sect has been able to be passed down for nearly ten thousand years with only one disciple without being cut off is largely due to its unique skills.
Stealing the Sky: Able to use blood essence and some special materials to create a special avatar. Different from the general incarnation technique, this avatar not only has its own unique appearance, breath, soul, realm, and cultivation, but also has its own unique luck.
You can completely treat this clone as another person.
Day-changing: When making an avatar, if you add some bones of deceased monks, or mix in the essence and blood of living monks, you can deprive them of some of their talents, luck, etc., and graft them onto the avatar.
Of course, if it were only this, it would not be enough to demonstrate the power of the Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun Sect.
"The Art of Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun" is only complete when combined with the token in Li Fan's hand.
This Stealing Heaven and Changing Sun Order was forged thousands of years ago by Sikong Yue, the 38th generation descendant of the Stealing Heaven and Changing Sun Sect.
Sikong Yue witnessed the great catastrophe coming, countless monks slaughtered each other, and their lives were as precious as ants. She was terrified and desperate to find a perfect way to save her life.
So after a hundred years of painstaking research and studying countless methods of refining weapons, she finally created this Heaven-stealing and Sun-changing Order.
The token has endless uses.
Not to mention the extremely spacious storage space. After the ritual, the token can be freely transferred between the original body and the clone, regardless of the space distance limit.
The most important thing is that she used the "Stealing the Sky and Changing the Day" technique to transfer the life essence of her clone and even her original body to this token.
As long as the token is not destroyed, even if the original body and the clone are killed, a new body can be reconstructed by consuming the essence and blood accumulated in the token.
Thus completing the "resurrection".
Simply put, when the practice is completed, what appears in front of outsiders, whether it is the original body or the clone, is just an empty shell.
That stealth order is the real entity.
After Sikong Yuejian's unconventional transformation, this skill has become somewhat weird, but...
But it is very effective.
For thousands of years, relying on this mysterious martial art, the members of the Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun Sect have been able to escape unscathed no matter how dangerous the situation is.
As a result, the Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun Sect has been passed down for thousands of years without being extinguished.
Until Sikong Yi met Li Fan, an anomaly who could travel back in time and space.
Stealing the Day is by no means perfect and has some fatal flaws.
For example, the main body and the clone need to maintain a certain distance. The farther the clone is from the main body, the more the clone's strength will decline. If it exceeds the limit, it will only retain the minimum cultivation level of the early stage of Qi Refining.
For another example, since the essence of life is maintained on the token, after the death of a member of the Stealing the Sky and Changing the Day Sect, a part of the soul will be bound inside the token and cannot be freed.
These residual souls often retain some important fragments of memories from their lifetime.
In times of crisis, the token owner can even release it to fight the enemy.
Li Fan's spiritual consciousness entered the interior of the Stealing Heaven and Changing the Day Order, but the huge storage space was empty.
Only Sikong Yi and another unrecognizable soul were floating around aimlessly.
The divine consciousness transformed into a giant hand, holding the two residual souls and reading their remaining memories.
After a long time, Li Fan finally figured out why the Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun Sect, which had been passed down for thousands of years, had fallen to such a state.
The cause of the incident has to start with Sikong Yi’s cheap master, Sikong Bo.
For thousands of years, the Stealing Heaven and Changing the Sun Sect had been walking in various dangerous places and had never been harmed. As a result, they gradually became arrogant and acted more recklessly. When it came to Sikong Bo, it reached its peak.
In a distant continent, Sikong Bo, who had broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, was somewhat dissatisfied with the clone he had previously trained.
So he planned to collect materials and practice the ritual again.
It happened that at this time, he met a little kid of five or six years old in a desolate mountain village.
The little kid was born with an immortal body. Not only was he extremely powerful, but his cultivation speed was also terrifyingly fast.
At this age, he has already completed Qi training and is ready to build a foundation.
This made Sikong Bo very excited.
After secretly observing for a while, Sikong Bo discovered that this little kid had even more extraordinary luck.
Every time he went hunting in the mountains alone, he could bring back all kinds of rare treasures.
If this little kid's luck is taken away, the clone created will certainly be extraordinary!
So, Sikong Bo, who was blinded, took advantage of the baby's deep sleep one night and wanted to steal its blood.
Unexpectedly...
This little kid had already been chosen by a Yuanying-level powerful being.
This Nascent Soul master was about to reach his end, and he felt that there was no hope for a breakthrough, so he looked everywhere for someone to possess.
I just happened to find this gifted little kid.
The usual method of possessing a body would more or less destroy the foundation of the person being possessed. This Nascent Soul cultivator was still hoping to reach a higher level, so how could he allow such a thing to happen?
So he adopted an extreme method: he transformed himself into a rare object of heaven and earth, waiting for the little baby to build his foundation, so that he could perfectly merge with it.
That’s right, according to Sikong Bo’s remaining memories, humans can be refined into wonders of heaven and earth.
In other words, a large portion of the foundation-building objects that constantly appear between heaven and earth are transformed from cultivators who once fell.
After a monk's death, the so-called "returning the Tao to heaven" is not just empty words.
The "Tao" of a cultivator, after years of transformation by heaven and earth, will slowly take on various special and strange objects based on his character during his lifetime and the characteristics of the techniques he practiced, and then reappear between heaven and earth.
If you cannot practice the Dharma together during your lifetime, you still need to make full use of it after you die.
This is the attitude of this world towards all the cultivators.
