Chapter 529 Five Elements Lotus Crown
Prajna City, July 15th.
Prajna Temple usually holds a ceremony on this day to liberate the souls of the dead and purify the evil spirits. On this day, believers will bathe and fast, and wear formal clothes to attend the ceremony.
According to custom, every family will light lotus lanterns at night to commemorate the deceased and ward off evil spirits.
In the middle of the day, many people have already hung lotus lanterns at their doorsteps, but they haven't lit them yet. There are also many people setting up incense tables at their doorsteps to burn incense and worship.
People who have no money would just build a mound of earth in the corner of the street, put a few incense sticks on it, kneel down and pray silently.
As Tieyuan walked along, he saw fireworks all over the city. With his cultivation level, no one could see him as long as he didn't want others to see him.
The master has a very high status in Prajna City, and ordinary people have to kneel down on the spot when they see him.
Tieyuan was traveling in secret, he didn't want anyone to see him. But along the way, he saw many people crying and burning incense to mourn the dead, and he couldn't help but think of his deceased mother and his sister who had depended on him.
My mother was a kind and gentle woman, but she was weak and died of illness. She was less than 30 years old when she died. He was sensible at that time and understood what death meant. He cried very sadly.
As for his father's death, he didn't feel anything. The man should have died a long time ago. When his sister died of illness, he felt only a little sad.
It was Gao Taixuan who helped deal with Tieying's funeral. This old guy was indeed experienced and thoughtful in his dealings with people. In fact, he was grateful for this.
But Gao Taixuan actually threatened him, which he could not tolerate.
This year is the last year of the thirty years. If Gao Taixuan decides to quit while he is ahead, we will cut off our relationship and have nothing to do with each other from now on.
If Gao Taixuan really thinks he has him under control and continues to make various demands, then don't blame him for fighting to the death.
The reason why he was tolerant at the beginning was that the other party’s conditions were harsh but within his tolerance.
Secondly, Gao Taixuan showed off his peerless swordsmanship, which made him feel fearful.
After thirty years of preparation, he has already refined the Great Power Heavenly Dragon Seal. Apart from anything else, it should be no problem for him to fight Gao Taixuan to the death.
Tieyuan had endured for thirty years. His patience had reached its limit and the murderous intent in his heart had accumulated to its peak.
The yard was very quiet, without any sound, even the two old women who usually worked were not there. Tieyuan looked over the wall and didn't even detect Gao Taixuan's presence, which made him more cautious.
Gao Taixuan sent everyone away. Did he know that he was going to fight? Tieyuan crossed the courtyard wall and came to the courtyard, and saw that the main door was ajar. He used his spiritual sense to observe the surroundings. There was indeed no one in the yard, not even a mouse, only a few insects chirping in the bushes in the corner of the courtyard wall.
Pushing open the half-open door, Tieyuan saw a piece of letter paper with a paperweight on it on the table in the main hall.
His eyesight was so sharp that he could see the contents of the letter clearly even when he was standing at the door.
"Disciple, I don't want the last ten Dragon Elephant Pills. Let's leave a favor for each other. We will meet again someday if we are lucky enough..."
The content of this letter is very simple and the meaning is expressed very clearly.
After seeing this, Tieyuan heaved a sigh of relief. He naturally didn't want to fight with Gao Taixuan. It couldn't be better to solve it this way.
He hesitated for a moment before he summoned his magic power, and the piece of letter paper instantly turned into ashes.
Thinking of his teacher's past, Tieyuan sighed softly and whispered to himself: "Rest in peace... I may think of you, but I never want to see you again... That's it!"
In the Changsheng Sword Cave, Gao Xian was sitting quietly beside the spring reading a book. He had been here for one hundred and eighty years. The magic array below was working and in a few days, a channel to the outside world would be opened.
He has not done anything in the past few decades, mainly because he has to be distracted. Even with the Jiuzhou Order in his hand, he has no intention of taking risks.
Successfully obtained the Dragon Elephant Pill, and upgraded the Dragon Elephant Vajra Pestle to the Grandmaster level. The Great Five Elements Gong was also cultivated to the ninth level of the Golden Pill. In a few years, it would be ready for the Infant Transformation.
Tieyuan obediently took out 290 Dragon Elephant Pills, so there was no need for him to argue with Tieyuan. With the talent of this cheap disciple, he might be able to achieve the state of transformation in the future.
Jiuzhou may seem vast, but there are not many strong people in the realm of transformation. With the chaos in the eight wastelands, maybe they will meet again one day.
It doesn't matter if they don't meet again, he doesn't have any feelings for this disciple.
Gao Xian suddenly felt something in his heart. He put away the book in his hand and stood up, "Qingqing, let's go."
Qingqing, who was sitting cross-legged and breathing beside her, opened her bright eyes. She said with a bit of regret: "If I wait another year or two, I will be able to reach the tenth level of the Golden Core. What a pity..."
Qingqing felt that the Changsheng Sword Cave was very good, quiet and deserted, with only her and her father. There were not so many women and not so many troublesome things.
The five metals here are strong, very suitable for sword practice. She has been practicing sword here for 180 years, and has made rapid progress. She has initially established a stable connection with the Shenxiao Tianfeng Sword.
If she practices for another two or three years, she will be able to reach the tenth level of the Golden Core. If she is lucky, she can even achieve the Infant Transformation here. Unfortunately, the timing is a little off.
Gao Xian pointed to the soul ring on his wrist and said, "You'd better come in and stay here for safety."
Qingqing pouted, she didn't like staying in the Soul Ring. However, the space channel opened by this kind of magic array was not stable, and adding her would probably cause the space channel to collapse.
Not only would she be in danger, but her father would also be unable to hold on. This was no joke.
Qingqing turned into a ray of green light and entered the soul-enhancing ring, and fell into a deep sleep from then on.
Gao Xian decided to let Qingqing sleep for a few years temporarily. She had been practicing too hard in the past 180 years. In fact, her original body was a black crane. Long-term sleep could make her original body grow rapidly, which was also very beneficial to her human body.
Cultivation also requires a balance between tension and relaxation. Simply advancing with courage and perseverance is not necessarily a good thing.
Runes flickered on the copper pillars, and the condensed magical power became stronger and stronger, soon converging into a long rainbow that penetrated the void above.
The Changsheng Sword Cave was very large, and Gao Xian's consciousness could not touch the dome of the Changsheng Sword Cave at all. However, he could sense that a passage had opened above the Changsheng Sword Cave, and a large amount of alien spiritual energy was pouring in.
Gao Xian knew the time had come, and he floated into the rising rainbow.
The next moment, Gao Xian left the Changsheng Sword Cave under the push of the huge spiritual power of the magic circle.
Yue Shenxiu and Qi Niang had been waiting by the side for a long time. When they saw Gao Xian coming out of the rainbow light, they both showed joy. They had great confidence in Gao Xian and believed that he had the ability to solve various problems.
However, since there had been no news for almost two hundred years, the two of them couldn't help but feel a little worried.
For Jindan, two hundred years is long enough. When the two saw Gao Xian again, they couldn't help but feel as if they were in another world.
Gao Xian was still as handsome as ever. Two hundred years had not left any traces on him, but made him look even more handsome. The robe he wore was whiter than snow, flowing like clouds, and as clear and bright as a god.
Yue Shenxiu and Qinnan were even happier. They could see that Gao Xian had made great progress in his cultivation and was in very good condition.
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
Mingyang Jianjun's eyes flickered. He could see that Gao Xian still had a strong Five Metal Qi, but his body was pure and full of energy. The strong Five Metal Qi had no effect on him.
From this, it can be concluded that Bai Yang’s murder had nothing to do with Gao Xian.
Over the past twenty years, the sect has invested a huge amount of manpower and material resources in Baiyang's affairs, but to no avail. For this reason, Mingyang Sword Master had to come in person to greet Gao Xian, mainly to confirm whether Gao Xian was staying in the Changsheng Sword Cave.
Gao Xian naturally saw Mingyang Sword Lord. He nodded to Yue Shenxiu and Qi Niang first, and then politely bowed to Mingyang Sword Lord, "I am flattered that the Palace Master came to pick me up personally."
Mingyang Sword Master smiled and said, "I am also under the order of the Sect Master. I will take you to see the Sect Master immediately. This is official business, so I can only ask you to come with me first..."
"Since the Sect Master has given the order, I will naturally go and pay my respects to him."
Gao Xian said to Yue Shenxiu and Qi Niang, "You go back to Qingyun Cottage first. I will be back soon."
Yue Shenxiu nodded to Gao Xian. She used the Qiankun Yin-Yang Cauldron to send a message to Gao Xian: "Bai Yang was killed. Others suspect you did it. Just don't talk nonsense..."
Gao Xian had actually guessed it long ago. Mingyang Jianjun was such a powerful figure that there was no reason for him to come and pick him up. He must have been doing this for important business.
While a few people were talking, another golden elixir from the sect had already entered the passage.
After a while, the long rainbow slowly dissipated, and the Changsheng Sword Cave was closed again.
Mingyang Jianjun led Gao Xian to Tianquan Hall first, and after entering the main hall, Mingyang Jianjun went up to report to the master first, while Gao Xian followed and greeted him.
Yue Wanfeng rarely smiled at Gao Xian, and his attitude was gentle and even a little bit intimate.
He praised: "Not bad, your cultivation has improved a lot in the Longevity Sword Cave."
Gao Xian said seriously: "The five metal energies in the Changsheng Sword Cave are strong, which has greatly improved my swordsmanship. I have also gained a good understanding of the changes of the five elements... It is all because of the opportunity given to me by the sect master that I can make progress..."
Yue Wanfeng smiled without saying anything. This kid is still so good at talking. Letting Gao Xian stay in the Changsheng Sword Cave for 180 years is actually a punishment for him.
After all, if Hong Yang was killed in public without teaching Gao Xian a lesson, everyone in the sect would have opinions.
Of course, Gao Xian is a smart man, so there is no need to say these things explicitly.
Gao Xian said again: "Sect Master, my cultivation has improved, and I am only one step away from the Nascent Soul stage. I beg you to grant me the Earth Spirit Liquid and the Jade God Ointment..."
Having stayed in the Changsheng Sword Cave for one hundred and eighty years, even if I haven't made much contribution, I have worked hard.
It is not easy to meet Yue Wanfeng once, so Gao Xian naturally wants to seize the opportunity to ask for the spiritual object for infant transformation.
Mingyang Jianjun, who was standing by, had a calm expression on his face, but in his heart he was praising Gao Xian for seizing the opportunity. The clan leader was thinking of his kindness and must be thinking of compensating him. Taking the opportunity to ask for the spiritual object for the infant transformation, the chance of success was very high.
Yue Wanfeng was a very capable person, so he certainly understood Gao Xian's little plan.
He smiled and said, "Guarding the Changsheng Sword Cave for 180 years is a merit, but this merit is not enough to exchange for these two spiritual objects. The Good Merit Hall has its own rules. Although I am the sect leader, I can't take the lead in breaking the rules..."
Yue Wanfeng thought for a moment and said, "How about this. Now a large number of demon cultivators have invaded the Eastern Wasteland. If you kill a Nascent Soul demon cultivator, these two spiritual objects will be yours."
"Nascent Soul Demon Cultivator?"
Gao Xian thought for a moment and said, "Blood God Sect's Yan Ming should be able to do it. I'll go and take his head now!"
Mingyang Jianjun was shocked when he heard this. Yan Ming was the leader of the Blood God Sect, and he was different from ordinary Nascent Soul Demon Cultivators. This person was the commander of the Eastern Wasteland Demon Cultivators in the front, with great power and position, and was heavily guarded. How could he be so easy to kill?
He looked at Gao Xian deeply, but couldn't say anything more in front of the sect leader.
Yue Wanfeng said with a half-smile: "If you can bring Yan Ming's head, I will give you the Five Elements Lotus Crown that I have hidden away..."
