Chapter 125: Asking the Heart

'This is? ’

Looking at the flying light, Chu Tai fell into deep thought.

In fact, as early as after the five people stood still, Chu Tai discovered that their auras were very similar, similar to different branches of the same martial arts system, and he thought that the five people were from the same sect.

Unexpectedly, later on, the two sides were in opposition, one was evil and the other was upright. Chu Tai thought that this world had its own way of cultivation, or there would be some changes after reaching a high level of cultivation.

Unexpectedly, the aura displayed by this so-called ancestor when he took action was no different from that of Taoist Mei.

"Both sides are using the innate Qi, so where does the distinction between good and evil come from? Could it be that the good and evil in this world are just simple concepts, or just in name? But listening to their previous communication, it seems that this is not the case."

'Besides, the vitality of the heaven and earth here is not scarce, why do they have to focus on the innate Qi?'

Chu Tai said he couldn't understand.

Although this innate Qi, like the human Yuan Ling Qing Qi, is the most superior of the four grades of Yuan Qi, it is one of the basic Yuan Qi that constructs all living individuals.

However, the innate Qi and the human Yuan Miao Qi have the same problem, that is, the amount of them in the human body is small, so much so that some people even confuse the two.

In the great heaven of Dongji Chenguang, even if there is a True Lord Qingshi who has attained enlightenment through the innate Qi, very few people would specifically practice the innate Qi.

After all, it is too troublesome to polish the innate Qi, the growth rate is too slow, and the combat effectiveness is not strong enough.

But the people in this world seem to like to revolve around the innate Qi. Chu Tai carefully observed the flying cone in the flowing light. It was a magic weapon refined with some kind of mixed material. The source of the refinement was the innate Qi, and the source of the activation was also the innate Qi.

As for the refining technique, Chu Tai observed it carefully for a long time before he had to believe that the information the [Alchemist] saw at the beginning was correct.

'At the beginning, I used my own innate Qi to warm the material's physical properties, making it produce supernatural powers. There was no purification, no magic restrictions, it was simply to strengthen the physical properties. This thing should be considered a magic item.'

Thinking of this, Chu Tai couldn't help but think of the golden beads that Taoist Fu Guang left for him.

But after thinking about it, he refuted his original guess in his heart.

'Although magic objects are also blessed by magic power, the mystery comes from magic power and acquired blessing. This guy's flying cone is closer to being nurtured by the innate Qi, which has caused certain changes in its physical properties. From a certain perspective, it should be considered refined. So is this thing a magic weapon? A fake magic weapon?'

Chu Tai thought about it, and finally gave up struggling and no longer worried about its ownership.

After several attempts, the flying cone finally broke through the magic ban left by Chu Tai, broke the lotus, and saw the heavenly debris inside.

The flying cone swung, and was about to take away the Heavenly Dust. Mei Daoist's heart tightened, and he saw the broken lotus healed again, and this time swallowed the flying cone.

Everyone was stunned and Taoist Mei even laughed out loud.

"Senior, you are really very elegant."

The old ancestor in the coffin was stunned for a moment, then snorted coldly, and the innate energy within him rose. He tried several times to recall the flying cone, but was instead injured by the magic power left by Chu Tai.

"go!"

Knowing that it was impossible to do anything, the ancestor left a word, and the coffin lid that had fallen to the ground suddenly flew up and covered it back.

Upon hearing this, the black and white ghosts hurriedly carried the coffin away. After they left, the lotus left by Chu Tai bloomed again. The heavenly debris inside fell off, and the petals overlapped, turning into a lotus and disappearing into the void.

Upon seeing this, Taoist Mei and his disciple Liu Xi bowed to the people around them and left one after another.

A lotus blossomed at Chu Tai's fingertips, inside of which was a small piece of heavenly debris and a flying cone emitting spiritual light.

In Chu Tai's view, that day's crumbs were still similar to the product of a mixture of gold and iron ore, and contained a mixture of various gases.

It was difficult to use as a material for refining magic weapons, and it was not suitable as a material for refining pills. For a moment, Chu Tai couldn't figure out whether what the black-faced ghost said before was true or false.

As for the flying cone, there was nothing special about it. It was almost the same as what he had guessed before. At most, through close contact, Chu Tai could see the abilities of the object after its properties were transformed.

"Automatically breed biological toxins? Being able to make metal tools have this ability, this ability that comes from the change of physical properties is still somewhat desirable. I don't know what the characteristics of their practice method are."

Holding the flying cone, Chu Tai silently calculated and followed the guidance of "fate" to find the ancestor who had left earlier.

At this time, the ancestor's coffin was lying in a huge sedan chair carried by twelve people, surrounded by dozens of men and women holding banners and standing on the left and right.

But the place where dozens of people gathered was very quiet. No one dared to make a sound. Only the sound of biting something came from the coffin.

Some of the timid ones would become so frightened after hearing this sound that their eyes would widen and their legs would tremble like sieves.

The black and white ghosts who were closer to the front secretly groaned. Their previous action of sending their ancestor to rob things now became their own death warrant.

The two who knew the old ancestor's character were aware that they had witnessed his failure this time. If they did not have a reasonable reason, the old ancestor would surely find a chance to kill them. They could only take advantage of the old ancestor's meal and recuperation to come forward and say a few words.

Unexpectedly, just as they walked to the side of the coffin, the coffin lid flew up again, and two bloody chains protruded from it, directly pulling the two of them into it.

"Ancestor, spare your life!"

Although he was crying for mercy, the subordinates of the black and white ghosts did not slow down and simultaneously shot a series of iron beads into the coffin. However, before the iron beads fell to the ground, they were swept up by a black gas and lost their mysterious power.

"Thunder Fire from the Thunderbolt Hall? It seems like you have been dissatisfied for a long time! Well, I will use your lives to make amends and repair the damage I have suffered."

There were some distorted sounds coming from inside the coffin, and then two chains pulled the black and white ghosts into it. Blood splattered and limbs were thrown out at random.

Dozens of people nearby showed horror when they saw this scene. The timid ones collapsed on the ground, while the brave ones turned around and ran away.

This run motivated everyone to move. Even those with weak legs used their hands and feet to crawl out.

But the old ancestor in the coffin didn't care at all and was still devouring the flesh and blood. When Chu Tai arrived, the old ancestor tilted his head and climbed out.

Looking at Chu Tai, a hint of joy emerged in his blood-blurred eyes, and he smiled and said, "Good boy, you are really a good boy. Come, come, come to me. From today on, you will take over the work of Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai and serve as my personal attendant."

Looking at the old ancestor whose innate Qi was in chaos, Chu Tai shook his head and said, "Rather than following you, I want to know something else."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Tai took a step forward and came to the side of the ancestor, with his five fingers spread out and his true energy surging.

Although the old man's mind was a little confused, he was not really stupid. When he saw Chu Tai's actions, he reacted instinctively.

He lunged forward and raised one leg, and like a scorpion swinging its tail, his true Qi rolled and transformed into an illusory scorpion tail, which he lashed out into the air several times, but each time it hit nothing.

At the same time, the old ancestor slapped the ground with both palms, true Qi surged, and the palm power was like silk and net, containing strange poison. Many sharp-edged pieces of paper flew out from his long sleeves, flying around with the palm power, crushing anything that came close, but this move still missed.

Startled, the old ancestor swayed his body, raised his head slightly and looked back. Under his horrified eyes, there was a faint light protecting his body. Chu Tai ignored the paper and pressed his palm directly on his forehead.

Yin Jingzong's secret method of questioning the mind was used, and he obtained the information he wanted to know from the old ancestor's mind.

During this process, Chu Tai did not hold back too much, and even had a tendency to interrogate violently. Therefore, when Chu Tai let go of the old ancestor's hands, his eyes were dull, his limbs were twitching, and he seemed to be stupid.

Chu Tai, who got the information he wanted, showed a somewhat conflicted expression.

"Is that so? The cultivation method in this world is quite interesting..."
