Chapter 65: Revisiting the Bamboo Garden and the Spiritual Substitution Technique
"Her alchemy furnace exploded?" Bai Wuchang was a little surprised when he heard the report from the visitor.
Logically speaking, someone who can refine elixirs like the Life-Extending Pill would never make such a low-level mistake with Fuhuo. Could it be that he had misjudged the person?
"Do you know why she mistook Fu Fang for someone else?" Bai Wuchang asked in a deep voice.
But the person behind him seemed not to have heard it, and just knelt on one knee in a daze.
Bai Wuchang didn't get a response from the visitor for a long time, so he turned around and looked.
"You've been a little absent-minded lately. Do you need me to teach you a lesson?"
After hearing this, the man hurriedly said that he dared not, and only said that Lingxiang was refining the elixir alone at that time and no one was present, so he could not find out any information.
Bai Wuchang then asked if the compass for the summoning array on Yinyu Mountain had been found. The visitor replied that Yinyu Peak had been sealed after the martial arts performance and it was impossible to go in and look for it.
"In that case, keep a close eye on it."
As Bai Wuchang said this, he turned around and disappeared, leaving the man kneeling alone, as if thinking about something.
It seems that this chess piece has reached its limit and it is time to train another one.
…
Seeing that the third martial arts performance was approaching, all the outer disciples were preparing for battle as if they were facing a formidable enemy. They were all on high alert and devoted themselves to cultivation besides their studies.
Of course, this was the last martial arts performance after all. No matter what happened in the previous two times, only this time could he impress the elders and directly enter the inner gate.
Success or failure depends on this one move!
Cheng Yu, in particular, did not slack off at all even during his rest time, either practicing sword moves or meditating and seeking enlightenment, in short, he gave it his all.
In contrast, the four people in Long Qiyuan seemed extremely lazy, and they all looked listless. Even Liu Xia seemed less keen on practicing.
Want to ask why?
Firstly, he'd been trembling with fear lately, constantly on guard against Banxia, wasting too much energy. Secondly, ever since the last martial arts performance, he'd felt as if there was a surge of energy surging within him, one he couldn't quite grasp. This had left him feeling frustrated, and he'd become somewhat lazy.
Long Qi was even more distracted all day long. While practicing, he always imagined the days when he would live with Lingxiang in Qingwei Peak in the future, and he couldn't concentrate at all.
Not to mention Xinyi. Ever since she saw the tattoo on Maidong's arm last time, she always liked to stay alone, either sitting alone on a stone in deep thought, or lying motionless on the bed with the door closed, her whole body filled with decadence.
If these three were like this, then Zhao Wuyang was even worse off. He was still young and found it difficult to comprehend some of the profound moral words in the book. There was also no one to correct his swordsmanship, so he could only read the book listlessly and sigh every day.
As soon as Lingxiang stepped into the house, she saw that several people looked relaxed. She could understand Xinyi's behavior, but she was puzzled as to why the other three were like this.
It seems that these brats really can't live without her all the time, which really breaks her motherly heart.
But apart from Zhao Wuyang, who else is not a few years older than her?
She coughed lightly, attracting the attention of the three people. They were all shocked: Lingxiang's leg bones were broken, and she should have been lying in bed, so how could she recover so quickly?
Long Qi hurried forward to check, and it was undoubtedly spiritual incense from head to toe. He was extremely surprised.
"How did you recover so quickly? Could it be that the bone-repairing pill is actually a heavenly elixir?"
Lingxiang had no choice but to explain the puppetry technique. Zhao Wuyang seemed to understand it, but not quite. Liu Xia was amazed and just said "oh". Only Long Qi knew that this move was very dangerous.
He had seen a book in the study of Youran Residence. The book mentioned that this technique was extremely dangerous. Not to mention whether the main body was safe or not, unlike the separation of the soul, this soul-replacing technique was to separate the consciousness and place it on a puppet. If the puppet was damaged, the consciousness would be hurt, and if one was not careful, he might become a fool.
Although he felt that Lingxiang was indeed like a fool in some aspects.
He hurriedly expressed his worries, and Lingxiang was very relieved to hear it: after all, he was his disciple, and although he was not a promising person, he was quite filial.
Thinking of this, he replied to Long Qi, saying that she was already in the sect and there was no danger. He also said that Maidong was guarding her body in Xianyunju and had lit a perpetual lamp. If there was any danger, he would directly recall her consciousness.
After hearing this, Long Qi felt a little relieved, but he still felt that something was wrong - Maidong was crazy all the time, how could he be a stable person?
After Lingxiang finished speaking, she directly stated her purpose, which was to find Xinyi and say something.
After hearing this, Long Qi was a little surprised. Except for Cheng Yu, who was asked by Elder Zhao Ming to enlighten her last time, Ling Xiang usually came to Zhuyuan because of him. The other three just took advantage of him. But now she openly said that she came to find another man.
When did she become so close to Xinyi?
Although Lingxiang made her purpose clear, before that, she still had to deal with the issue between the three people first.
So she didn't prepare anything and just asked Liu Xia why she was so depressed. Time waits for no one!
Liu Xia was frightened when he heard this, and immediately told him what had happened in the past few days.
"Since we have met, it is fate. Why should we hide? As for cultivation, everything requires an opportunity. Just let nature take its course. There is no need to worry about other things. It's just that the time has not come yet." Lingxiang said this without asking Liu Xia whether he could accept it. Instead, she asked Zhao Wuyang.
Zhao Wuyang explained that he could neither understand the true mysteries of the Dao nor perform the sword techniques beautifully, and then looked at Lingxiang with eyes full of expectation.
"Not everyone understands morality, and not everyone can use the sword well. Even Senior Brother Qianyuan, although he has a high level of cultivation, is very weak in swordsmanship. But everyone has a way of practice that suits them. When I have time another day, I will teach you some other things. Don't be discouraged." Lingxiang said, and just patted Zhao Wuyang's head, which surprised him.
When it was Long Qi's turn, he hesitated for a long time and couldn't explain clearly. Lingxiang became impatient and just told them not to think too much about it. She then told everyone not to follow him to steal the horn, and then went upstairs, leaving the three of them surprised for a while.
When did this spiritual incense become so popular?
Lingxiang went upstairs, knocked on the door, said sorry, and then opened the door and went into the house.
Xinyi was thinking about something. Before he could come to his senses when he heard the knock on the door, he saw Lingxiang opening the door and coming in. However, he just looked up at Lingxiang as usual.
Seeing him like this, Lingxiang walked to the window and stood there.
"You don't seem surprised why I'm looking for you." Lingxiang said, turned around, jumped lightly, and sat on the windowsill.
Xinyi heard this but did not respond, still thinking about her own things.
"When should we start talking about this? Is it the Supreme Sect or the Life-Extending Pill, or..." Lingxiang said, and took out something from his sleeve, which turned out to be the compass for summoning the formation!
"Or is it something from the demon clan?"
