Chapter 256: Du'e Temple
"Back then, everyone in the Leixiao Sect claimed to be a god, and they became arrogant and ruthless, just like now, causing chaos in the world."
"The war lasted for many years. When the whole world was exhausted and all sides were almost exhausted, the situation gradually became clear, and the people from Du'e Temple came to me."
"They won't come down directly, but will promise to give me ten elixirs of immortality every year, as well as scarce resources for cultivating transcendence and fine medicines for prolonging life."
"As soon as the news got out, talented people from all over the world rushed to join us, and even those old guys who were about to die also came to join us."
"Before this, I was already the largest rebel army in this world. With their resource support, I gained more power, and naturally I grew rapidly and swept across the world. This shortened the duration of the unrest and reduced many casualties."
"After the establishment of Lingxiao Palace, as a reward, the resources of the habitat will be provided to them first. They will also send ten immortality pills to Lingxiao Palace every sixty years to consolidate the ruling position of Lingxiao Palace."
"Just like, I killed the flying dragon, but they took away the dragon bones, dragon seeds, and dragon palace."
Li Weiyi could hear the dissatisfaction in Chanhai Guanwu's tone: "After investing a lot of resources, I think it's understandable to ask for a return after success. It's an investment, and there are risks. If you lose the battle, their resources will also be lost. It's fair!"
The spirit master said: "Mist Emperor wants to tell you that Du'e Temple is not a compassionate savior, but is only interested in profit under the banner of salvation."
"He is truly a savior. He stood up at the beginning of the turmoil in the world. He did not wait until the world was in tatters before coming out to look for the so-called hidden dragon."
Li Weiyi was very clear-headed and said with a smile: "Cooperation based on interests can certainly collapse at any time. However, if Du'e Temple only talks about ideals, the way of heaven, and unconditional support, I think it is even more unreliable."
"You're right! The exchange of interests often leads to a more stable relationship."
Chanhai Guanwu said: "But the biggest problem of Du'e Temple is that they will not bet on only one side. When they supported me, they also split off another faction to support Lei Xiao Sect, thinking that Lei Xiao Sect has the potential to quell the war."
"That's right. I defeated the Lei Xiao Sect back then, but I couldn't completely destroy them. I had to compromise with the other faction in Du'e Temple."
"The existence of the Thunder Sky Sect, to a certain extent, checks and balances the High Heaven Palace."
Li Weiyi said, "This move is a bit shady! But in the game of big forces, this is a common trick, not surprising. I am very curious, with your cultivation level that can even kill flying dragons, can you still not get rid of Du'e Temple?"
Chanhai Guanwu snorted and raised his snow-white chin. "In its heyday, Lingxiao Sanctuary had three hundred states and was full of masters. At that time, how could Du'e Temple dare to point fingers at me? The annual tribute of Leixiao Sect is far more than that of other tens of millions of sects. They are just afraid of my reckoning. But thousands of years have passed, and several generations have long since changed, so naturally there is no killing spree."
"I told you the essence of Du'e Temple because I wanted to tell you that you can't rely too much on Lingxiao Living Realm. To deal with Qilin Zang, you can only rely on Lingxiao people themselves."
"This could be a disaster for you. You must handle it with caution."
"Disaster?" Li Weiyi looked solemn.
Chanhai Guanwu said: "Your veins are all gold, and the secret of opening the tenth spring must not be known to Du'e Temple. The existence of the Taoist Taiji Fish must not be exposed."
Master Guan immediately agreed: "That's absolutely right! Even if the basic constitution reaches the level of Luan Sheng Lin You, Ge Xian Tong, and Zuo Qiu Hong Ting, it is still not enough for some old guys who are about to die to take risks. But if the trace veins are all gold and the Ten Springs Divine Palace is confirmed... it's hard to say."
Master Guan said, "I have met Master Zhuang Yan before, and he is a decent person."
Master Guan said: "The Du'e Temple is not headed by Master Zhuang Yan, the water inside is very deep!"
Li Weiyi understood what Chanhai Guanwu and Master Guan were worried about, and broke out in a cold sweat: "Should I take advantage of the chaos and escape first?"
Chanhai Guanwu said: "For now, there is no place safer than Taoli Mountain. You don't have to worry too much. The Zuoqiu Clan and the Jiuli Clan are standing behind you. If you don't go to Du'e Temple, can Master Zhuangyan still tie you up? As an immortal master, it is impossible for him to be shameless."
"That's right. It's actually the safest place to stay in Taoli Mountain now, because no one can play dirty tricks on you." said Master Guan.
Li Weiyi asked, "Will they invite me to practice at Du'e Temple?"
Master Guan said: "With the talent you have shown, it would be strange if you were not invited. You can't go. If you go, no one will be able to help you."
"Now that you have the identity of the Jiuli chief disciple, the Jiuli tribe will do its best to protect you. The Zuoqiu Sect needs the support of the Jiuli tribe and will also protect you." said the spiritual master.
Li Weiyi was frightened by what they said: "Alright... I will take this opportunity to retreat for a while, refine my magic energy, and strive to master it as soon as possible. Master Guan, how long do you think I need to refine it?"
"Three months for the fourth sea, at least half a year for the fifth sea. By then, you will be able to cultivate the sixth sea wind palace and the fifth level of Qi!"
"Nine months."
Li Weiyi was extremely distressed. It took too long to temper his Qi, but Luan Sheng and Lin You had already broken through to the Dao Seed realm.
If his Dao Seed is truly a "Dragon Seed", then his cultivation speed in the Dao Seed Realm will surely increase by leaps and bounds.
Li Weiyi didn't want to be in the process of tempering his Qi in the Seventh Sea while others had already broken through and achieved immortality.
"Is there any way to improve the efficiency of quenching?" Li Weiyi asked.
Master Guan was dissatisfied: "Look, you are in a hurry again. We agreed to calm down after the Qianlong Lantern Festival."
"Yes, with the help of the power of the Fusang sacred tree."
Zen Hai Guan Wu looked towards the blood mist in the distance.
The blood mist dissipated, and Tanggu Sea and the Fusang sacred tree appeared on the other side of the space barrier, with the sea filled with Xihe flowers.
She said, "But, you have to actually cross that space barrier and go to Tanggu Sea, to a place closer to the Fusang Sacred Tree. The speed of tempering should be doubled."
At present, Li Weiyi has only reached the first realm of the Great Mind Master, the "Earth Fire Realm". He can only open a bowl-sized hole in the space barrier and cannot pass through.
In order to open a larger channel, cross the space, and reach Tanggu Sea, he must devote all his energy to cultivating his mind power in the next period of time, and strive to reach the "Heavenly Fire Realm" or even the "Disaster Fire Realm" as soon as possible.
Master Guan said, "This is indeed a road! But... Master Wu, what are you so anxious about?"
Chanhai Guanwu's eyes were extremely heavy. "I have reached the level of the Emperor, and I know very well how close Qilin Zang is to a breakthrough. The situation is very critical. Once he crosses that hurdle, will Taoli Mountain still be safe?"
After a long silence.
She said: "In the entire Lingxiao habitat, there may be only one person who can deal with Qilin Zang."
Li Weiyi's eyes moved: "Yuyaozi?"
Zenhai Guanwu said, "Among the three disciples, she ranks first in talent, character, and wisdom. I trust her the most. I am really curious about what she has encountered and what difficulties she has encountered. I want to go to Lingxiao City and meet her in person."
Li Weiyi was shocked. Now everyone in the world regarded Yu Yaozi as a scourge and a monster, and believed that she was more terrifying than the demons.
He quickly advised, "It's been a thousand years. Your disciple must have changed a lot. There must be something wrong with his mind. It's too dangerous for you to go there rashly!"
Chanhai Guanwu said: "I will consider this matter again... You have to practice faster and reach the Dao Seed Realm as soon as possible. By then, the Disguise Technique should be perfect and you can conceal your true identity. By then, you can go anywhere."
Li Weiyi said: "I have another question. Since Qilin Zang is so powerful, why doesn't Du'e Temple directly support him?"
"Investing in Qilin Zang may make it easier to succeed, but it is also possible to lose everything. The risk is no less than investing in Zuoqiu Menting." The person who answered was Master Guan.
Li Weiyi asked, "Is it related to Feifeng and Jinling's ancestors?"
“There’s no need to think about the higher-level game.”
Chanhai Guanwu knew Du'e Temple very well and said, "It's easy to guess. The Qianlong Lantern Festival is essentially a sway between two factions within Du'e Temple. Some are optimistic about Qilin Zang, while others are optimistic about the one from Zuoqiu Menting Zongheng School. Both of them are top masters who have the potential to unify the world."
"Since neither faction could convince the other, they held this Qianlong Lantern Festival to see the quality of the next generation of the two major forces."
…
After having a general understanding of Du'e Temple, Li Weiyi withdrew from the blood mud space and began to recuperate from his injuries, temper his magic energy, and practice his telekinesis.
At the same time, he also prepared to use the sacred stove wood in the next period of time to perfect his physical cultivation.
Seven days later.
All injuries healed.
Li Weiyi was quite concerned about the situation outside, especially Yin Jun and his men. He didn't know whether they had managed to get the elixir of immortality, dragon seeds, and dragon bones. So he came out of seclusion temporarily.
"Brother Zuoqiu?"
Li Weiyi saw "A phoenix giving birth to a unicorn" in a densely built area on the third level of heaven, and the aura belonged to Zuoqiu Ting.
Zuo Qiu stopped and waved his folding fan. His injuries had healed. His silver hair fluttered and he looked incredibly handsome. He laughed, "Li Weiyi, you are really patient. The whole city is in turmoil, but you are staying in seclusion alone. How are you? How is your injury?"
Seeing that he could still laugh, Li Weiyi knew that the battle situation should be okay.
"It's all right now."
Li Weiyi walked over quickly. He wanted to hit him in the chest, but he spared him out of the precious friendship between cousins. He just put his arm around his shoulder and said, "Where did you go during the final battle of the Qianlong Lantern Society? You actually became a deserter? Do you know how hard it was for your sister and I to fight?"
Zuo Qiuting was shy and used his folding fan to gently block his arm, trying to act more naturally. He sighed, "Alas, I was injured too badly and was eliminated early! My sister thinks highly of you and says you are worth making friends with."
"We are worthy of friendship. Why did you push my arm? We are brothers and have slept in the same bed before."
Li Weiyi hugged him tighter and whispered in his ear, "To be honest, your sister is really beautiful, like a fairy from heaven, not inferior to Fairy Yu. If you, Zuoqiu Sect, let her marry me, I might agree! Otherwise, can you help me?"
