Chapter 79: Aftermath, Causes and Consequences



In mid-air, Shen Lian's body swayed.

In the sea of ​​divine consciousness, the lavender image of the demon reappeared and once again rushed into the fallen bones to check them out.

"call--"

With a wave of his hand, a group of demonized black-horned ants crawled over from afar, turned over the broken corpse, and searched for the storage ring and bracelet.

Buzz——

Shen Lian took out another Tiangang Thunder and Fire Talisman and smashed it down, and the thunder and fire burned the remaining bones.

He tilted his head to take a look and felt that it was not rigorous enough.

Then he made a pinch of magic formula, and the golden-red firebird let out a cry and sank into the thunder and fire.

The remaining bones ignited with golden red flames, and soon burned the remaining bones into a pile of gray ashes.

A group of black-horned demon ants climbed up again, and before the residual heat had even dissipated, they began to devour the ashes with a crackling sound.

However, Shen Lian did not stop his actions. Several talismans glowing with black light appeared in his hands. He activated them and dropped them towards the places where he had just performed the fire magic.

This is the Talisman of Blue Sea and Shocking Waves.

After being activated, the talismans transformed into giant pythons and water snakes, washing over the ruins where the battle had just taken place.

When water and fire collided, rocks splashed in the mountains, and the water made a gurgling sound as if it was boiling. The ruins of the previous battle had changed drastically.

In this battle, both sides used spirit stones to smash each other using talismans and forbidden-breaking beads.

There are too many surprises and too many variables.

After speeding up his cleanup, he headed towards the outside of Black Rock Island.

Just as Shen Lian left, a loud roar was heard from underground on the island. The safe cave where they had been hiding collapsed, and large pieces of rocks and soil sank into it.

The peaceful cave, which had been stable for three years, disappeared under the soil and rocks.

Outside the island.

After picking up Sanqian who had surfaced, Shen Lian quickly headed towards Black Whale City.

He has several caves outside the Black Whale City, but in comparison, the Black Whale City, which is guarded by golden elixirs and formations, is safer.

Black Whale City.

Jingxin Danpu.

"call……"

After taking a handful of first-level recovery pills, Shen Lian breathed a long sigh of relief.

fine.

Things are not as bad as imagined.

At the critical moment, the Soul-Binding Seal performed a great job. It not only captured a large amount of Pei Huoyu's memories, but also captured most of the spiritual thoughts in the soul-borrowing insect.

Through memory, we learned that the cultivator we fought with was named Pei Huoyu, and he was really the stone farmer under the command of Patriarch Ziyang.

The cultivator who gave Pei Huoyu the soul-borrowing insect was Bian Qingyun, a disciple of Patriarch Ziyang.

Although Bian Qingyun is a Jindan Zhenren, the size of the soul-borrowing insect is not large, and the divine consciousness it can accommodate is not strong, only about the same as Pei Huoyu who is at the fifth level of foundation building.

After Pei Huoyu was seriously injured, the poisonous insect was also affected.

Moreover, after the cultivator separates a wisp of his spiritual consciousness and merges it with the poisonous insect, if the main body wants to communicate with the separated spiritual consciousness, it needs to use special poisonous magic, and the distance between them must be close to each other in order to connect.

During this period, the communication between the separated divine consciousness and the main body is cut off.

In other words, Bian Qingyun might be able to sense that the insect was dead, but he was not sure about the specific situation.

This separated part of divine consciousness also contained some of Bian Qingyun's memories, which Shen Lian also captured.

"The predecessors refine the weapons and the descendants collect them. There are descendants behind them. This is a warning to the world."

Shen Lian was dazed as he repeated Pei Huoyu's words, and he started to smile bitterly.

I thought I had found a bargain, but I didn't expect the bargain was so big, from foundation building to golden elixir, and then to Nascent Soul.

What is this?

No wonder after completing the foundation building, he encountered the ascension ritual when he went out. The omens were predicted in advance.

That fellow Qigong practitioner who failed to build his foundation was really resentful.

If he hadn't been prepared beforehand, he would have almost been implicated in his ascension to heaven.

"The main thing is that we haven't prepared enough. We didn't take into account any unexpected situations. We must remember this lesson. We must prepare at least ten sets of talisman sequences in the future..."

Shen Lian reflected on the shortcomings of this battle.

This was the first time he fought against a Foundation Establishment cultivator. Since he had just been promoted to the Foundation Establishment stage, he was still at the Qi Training stage.

The financial resources of the foundation-building cultivators should not be underestimated.

The main problem is that he is not yet prepared for saturation defense and attack means.

Afterwards, Shen Lian spent most of the day sorting out the chaotic memory fragments captured by the Soul-Binding Seal.

But the fragments were too trivial and scattered, and many of them were not coherent, so he picked up the useful ones and flipped through them first.

The cause and effect of this incident have been roughly understood, and the cause of the incident was still in the Five Elements Immortal Palace.

There are always omens before the Five Elements Fairy Palace appears. An illusory scene similar to a mirage will be projected at the place where it is about to appear, absorbing spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

This process will take at least a hundred years.

This has resulted in many Nascent Soul-level forces being able to prepare in advance even if they are at a long distance.

Decades ago, the entrance to the Five Elements Palace appeared near the South China Sea in the Tiannan Immortal Realm, and many Nascent Soul-level forces entered the palace in search of opportunities.

Patriarch Zi Yang naturally went in as well, and because he saw the signs of the appearance of the Five Elements Immortal Palace in advance, he captured many cultivators with five spiritual roots in the mortal world and the immortal world.

Pei Huoyu is one of them.

Moreover, Pei Huoyu has five middle-grade spiritual roots, among which the fire spiritual root is even in the top-grade category.

Among the five spiritual root cultivators captured by Patriarch Ziyang, Pei Huoyu and the other two were promoted to the foundation-building stage under the dedicated training of Patriarch Yuanying.

When the Immortal Palace was still open, he was brought into the Palace by Old Ancestor Zi Yang. He found the five-colored stone in the five-colored soil and luckily got out of the Palace alive.

The reason why Pei Huoyu has so many forbidden-breaking beads is because when he entered the Immortal Palace, Ancestor Zi Yang gave them to him to break the forbidden areas of the Immortal Palace.

In the Five Elements Immortal Palace, Pei Huoyu consumed all the third-grade and even second-grade upper and middle-grade forbidden-breaking beads.

The remaining second-grade, lower-grade forbidden-breaking beads have been almost used up in battles with others over the past few years.

This is why the forbidden beads were not enough at the critical moment.

Ancestor Zi Yang is a man who is both good and evil. He hardly ever does good things on a daily basis, but he does a lot of good things for the bad guys.

After obtaining the five-colored stones from the fairy palace, he was targeted by his old enemy.

After a great battle, Patriarch Zi Yang disappeared and it was rumored that he went into hiding to heal his wounds.

But Patriarch Zi Yang had anticipated that he would be tricked, so he arranged in advance for his disciples to take Pei Huoyu and others and hide in a remote place for practice.

But no matter how remote the place is, the news of such a big fight between the Nascent Soul ancestors would spread everywhere.

Ever since he heard that Patriarch Zi Yang was seriously injured and escaped, Pei Huoyu, as a stone farmer, also developed different thoughts.

Unexpectedly, he actually escaped and ran all the way from the Tiannan Immortal Cultivation World to the Desolate Area.

Pei Huoyu thought he was very lucky, but he didn't expect that everything was calculated by Bian Qingyun, and the soul-borrowing insect had already been planted in his sea of ​​consciousness.

"No wonder the news of the Golden Elixir Cultivation Technique spread in Jiuchong Xiancheng before. It was all caused by the Gu worms."

Bian Qingyun wanted to take advantage of Pei Huoyu's greed as a foundation-building cultivator to cripple him, and then he would use the poisonous insect to complete his control.

But unexpectedly, Pei Huoyu was lucky that time and did not give Bian Qingyun the chance to control his body.

During this fight, Pei Huoyu was first poisoned and then seriously injured, and only then was Bian Qingyun's hidden spiritual consciousness stimulated from the poisonous insect.

However, he didn't expect that Shen Lian took the initiative and directly enveloped Pei Huoyu in a sky full of wind, fire and thunder.

In addition, as he had expected before, there are secret methods to eliminate the different attributes of the five-colored stones, so that they can match the spiritual root attributes of the cultivator.

"A chance to ascend to immortality."

From Pei Huoyu's memory, Shen Lian also found the follow-up about the five-colored stone.

The natal magic weapon is made of five-colored stones as the main material. After the cultivator has sacrificed and refined it and entered the Five Elements Immortal Palace again, he can use the magic weapon to pass through a void area and enter an immortal palace.

Rumor has it that there is a chance to become an immortal.

In addition, a spiritual treasure with growth attributes is also very attractive to cultivators.

The third-level magic weapon, the fourth-level spiritual treasure, and the fifth-level spiritual treasure are all spiritual treasures with terrifying power.

For some sects, perhaps through the continuous sacrifices and refinement by successive Nascent Soul ancestors, one day the sect will be able to give birth to a spiritual treasure, thus achieving the sect's class leap.

Shen Lian just felt a toothache. Where did this legend come from? Could there be some activities to stabilize the prosperity of the immortal cultivation world?

The legend of ascension and the spiritual treasure with growth attributes were too unfriendly to him, a young cultivator who had completed the five spiritual roots, possessed a magical instrument made of five-colored stones, and had just established his foundation.

We will know this afternoon whether it can be included in Sanjiang’s recommendation. If it is not, it will be put on the shelves tomorrow, which is Friday, and it will be published with about 20,000 words.
