In the dream, Daoyan Zhenjun asked Xie Hanmei with a stern face: "For your own selfish reasons, you have put the sisters and brothers of the Yushan Sect in danger of being used as 'furnace tripods'. What do you think?"
What? What could she do? Kill Ling Xiaotian? Before their collaboration, Xie Hanmei and Ling Xiaotian had sworn a vow not to harm each other. Let the sisters of the Yushan Sect leave the Yushan Sect with Xie Hanmei? Haha! Before this happened, who would have believed that such a sinister practice involving female cultivators existed in this world?
Every time Xie Hanmei struggled to wake from her dream, her clothes would be soaked with sweat. In her dreams, she saw familiar faces, one after another, dying in agony as their entire powers were drained away. Xie Hanmei had no power to change this, and could only let her heart be tortured by these tragic scenes.
Xie Hanmei dared not sleep. She practiced desperately, again and again, fearing that one day she would follow in the footsteps of her fellow practitioners and become a "cauldron" to be plundered. Every cultivator dreams of becoming an immortal, and Xie Hanmei is no exception. Even if she couldn't achieve immortality, she didn't want the spiritual power she had painstakingly cultivated to become a stepping stone for others to achieve immortality.
The great changes came unexpectedly.
After practicing the "Lu Ding Gong Fa" for three months, Li Yuanpei, the head of Qingyun Peak, discovered that his cultivation, which had stagnated for years, was showing signs of advancement. Overjoyed, Li Yuanpei quickly passed the technique on to his two male disciples, Yue Haotian and Xie Hanshi.
After much deliberation, Xie Hanshi told Xie Hanmei about this matter. Xie Hanshi had always been timid, so he wanted Xie Hanmei to ask his great-grandfather, Daoyan Zhenjun, whether this kind of cultivation method that absorbed other people's power was considered an unorthodox way and whether the Xie family's descendants could practice it.
Xie Hanmei was shocked. The thing she feared had finally happened.
Xie Hanmei solemnly told Xie Hanshi that this technique was harmful to people and should never be practiced.
After sending Xie Hanshi away, Xie Hanmei did nothing that day and sat in her residence for a whole day and night.
Xie Hanmei had a feeling that a storm was about to come, but even if she racked her brains, she still couldn't figure out what to do.
When Taoist Master Daoyan was alive, Xie Hanmei lived a very comfortable life in the sect. Except for a few missions she went out with her fellow disciples, Xie Hanmei devoted herself to cultivation in Yushan Sect. Xie Hanmei didn't know much about the outside world. She only knew that the female cultivators in the Loose Cultivator Alliance had a very difficult life.
In the end, Xie Hanmei could only make up her mind to be more vigilant. If someone really set their sights on her, it would not be too late to resist.
This day soon arrived.
The news of Daoyan Zhenjun's death spread within the sect soon after.
Xie Hanmei is highly talented and has a high level of cultivation. As a female cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building, she has a fatal attraction to those who practice the "Furnace Cauldron Technique".
Li Yuanpei was lucky enough that he didn't dare to attack Xie Hanmei because of their relationship as master and disciple.
Xie Hanmei's senior brother Yue Haotian, relying on his father's status as the master of Xiaoyao Peak, used a pot of fruit wine mixed with "Soul Sealing Powder" to try to turn Xie Hanmei into his "furnace tripod".
Fortunately, Xie Hanmei was alert and did not drink the wine Yue Haotian gave her. After the falling out, Xie Hanmei killed Yue Haotian and defected from the Yushan Sect.
When Daoyan was alive, he had a good relationship with the ancestors of Maoshan. A few years ago, Xie Hanmei followed Daoyan to visit Maoshan Sect.
After Xie Hanmei fled to Maoshan Sect, Mao Yifu took her in.
Xie Hanmei hadn't been able to concentrate on her cultivation during the six months she'd been in the Maoshan Sect. She felt compelled to flee, a fate ultimately her own. If Xie Hanmei hadn't helped Ling Xiaotian seize his body, the Yushan Sect wouldn't have become the filthy den it is today.
For the sake of Taoist Master Daoyan, the Maoshan Patriarch treated Xie Hanmei well and soon accepted Xie Hanmei as his registered disciple.
As a disciple of the Maoshan Patriarch, Xie Hanmei's life in the Maoshan Sect was prosperous. With Xie Hanmei's strength at the middle stage of foundation building, no one in the younger generation of Maoshan Sect could match her except for the Mao Yifu siblings.
After the Maoshan Patriarch issued a "declaration of war" to the Yushan Sect, Xie Hanmei volunteered to go to the Yushan Sect to inquire about the situation.
After all, in addition to Taoist Master Daoyan, there are two other Nascent Soul cultivators in the Yushan Sect who have not appeared in recent years. It is not known whether they are in seclusion or have died.
The Maoshan Patriarch readily agreed. In a one-on-two situation, even if the Maoshan Patriarch cared deeply about his disciples, he couldn't possibly not take their own lives seriously.
"Grandpa Jing, I regret it. I shouldn't have believed Ling Xiaotian's instigation, thinking that what he wanted was the same as what I did, just to survive." After Zhu Xiaozhao left, Xie Hanmei stood there and sighed slowly.
"Girl, what's there to regret for what you've done? Correct it if you're wrong, and stick to what's right. That's all." An old voice sounded above Xie Hanmei's head.
After the sound, a small bronze mirror the size of a palm floated down from the treetop where Xie Hanmei had just been and hovered one foot above Xie Hanmei's head.
If Zhou Yuanyuan were here, she would definitely be overjoyed. This bronze mirror covered with patterns and which likes to "take advantage of its age" to pretend to be profound, who else could it be but the Qiankun Mirror?
However, Xie Hanmei didn't know that the "senior" she had been talking to these days was just a mirror. Xie Hanmei only knew that this "cultivator" who called himself "Mirror Master" was a man of profound cultivation and erudition.
Three days, it took only three days for "Master Jing" to stir up Xie Hanmei's fighting spirit. "Master Jing" was right; you must rise from where you fell. Xie Hanmei's inner obsession lay with the Yushan Sect. As long as she could resolve the issue of the Yushan Sect's leader, Ling Xiaotian, abusing the "Lu Ding Gong Fa," her inner demons would automatically disappear.
Although Xie Hanmei didn't understand why a "powerful cultivator" suddenly appeared beside her, she had never felt any malice from the actions of the Qiankun Mirror, so she could only let it go.
Of course, even if Xie Hanmei didn't want the Qiankun Mirror to follow her, she had no choice!
The "invisibility technique" of the Qiankun Mirror cannot be seen through by a foundation-building cultivator like Xie Hanmei.
"Correct what you are wrong, and persist in what is right..." After Xie Hanmei repeated this sentence over and over again twice, a glimmer of hope appeared in her eyes.
Grandpa Jing was right. She had to correct her mistakes herself. Only by destroying Ling Xiaotian, the "alien soul," could everything in the Yushan Sect be put back on track.
Thinking of this, a smile broke out on Xie Hanmei's cold face.
"Grandpa Jing, I want to go to Qingyun Peak to see my cousin Xie Hanshi. Would you like to go?" Xie Hanmei asked cautiously.
These days, Xie Hanmei discovered a very strange phenomenon. As long as this "Mirror Master" was by her side, she was like wearing an invisibility cloak. Even a Jindan cultivator could not detect Xie Hanmei's existence.
