Chapter 338: Seeking Corpse Solution

"How should I answer this?"

Chu Tai chuckled and looked at the man sealed in the central jade stone. The female cultivator beside him saw this and hurriedly said, "Don't be surprised, Daoist Brother Taiqing... This senior brother is the direct disciple of Elder Danhua Yuque. He was just a little excited when he heard that his master had left. There is no other meaning."

Hearing that the female cultivator wanted to ease the atmosphere, Chu Tai smiled and planned to follow her words, but the man in the jade stone was unwilling to do so.

"Why, is this question difficult to answer? Or do you not dare to answer it?"

The other party's question caused everyone to fall into a brief awkwardness. Chu Tai stared at the man and sneered, "Not to mention that I have no obligation to answer your questions now, let's just talk about the relationship between you and me. It is you who need to prove yourself, not me."

"Although I sympathize with you as victims of the erosion of foreign laws and principles, this does not mean that you can arbitrarily accuse me and question me. To put it bluntly, I am now the head of the Taiyi Jinhua Sect, and you are the prisoners."

Chu Tai's words made the thirteen people have different expressions. After Chu Tai made his attitude clear, he slowly told everyone his role in this process, stating that he had directly faced the fragments of the Dao fruit of the previous generation of the sect leader and the Dao principles and laws that collapsed after the Golden Crow Square Cauldron collapsed.

"So, Fellow Daoist Taiqing, are you capable of resisting the erosion of foreign Dao rules and laws? No wonder the previous sect leader and Elder Danhua Yuque chose you as the current sect leader." The female cultivator spoke first, and the address was changed quickly, which was regarded as a recognition of Chu Tai's status on behalf of the other thirteen people.

After receiving the reply, Chu Tai did not continue to maintain a strong attitude. After all, the thirteen people in front of him were the foundation for Chu Tai to establish a sect in the future. If possible, he did not want to make the relationship between the two sides too stiff.

The female cultivators and others who noticed this all breathed a sigh of relief. The middle-aged man, who had kept silent because the man in the jade had spoken because he was worried that he might say something wrong, also took the opportunity to ask Chu Tai what he was doing now.

"I am tidying up the medicine garden while also observing your situation."

As he spoke, Chu Tai casually picked a water ganoderma that had accumulated spiritual power for five hundred years from the lotus pond, and said, "Just like this lotus that has transformed into a spiritual medicine water ganoderma, the medicinal properties have been affected by the principles of the immortal manifestation of the Tao and the great heaven. Compared with a normal hundred-year-old lotus, it has many more effects and also loses many of its original magical uses. If used well, it may be able to serve as a substitute for some extinct medicinal materials, so I want to preserve them first."

As he spoke, Chu Tai opened the petals of the water lotus again, pointed at the red lines at the base of the petals and said, "The Three Talents Fire Cloud Ring on your head belongs to the Earth Fire system. It is different from the Sky Fire Cloud Ring, which does not release fire energy outward, but is restrained and sinks. By observing this water ganoderma, I can probably see the alienation of your true qi. Knowing your situation, I can make a judgment and think of ways to help you."

"How can you help me?"

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, looked at Chu Tai, and whispered: "Not only can you resist the erosion of the laws and principles of the foreign land, but you can also help others suppress alienation?"

"I do have a little bit of this ability, but not much, and it has certain negative effects, so I must be extremely careful when using it."

As soon as Chu Tai said this, the emotions of the other twelve people showed obvious fluctuations.

The female cultivator and the young man who were also staring at the Fire Jade Ring stared at Chu Tai even more. Finally, the middle-aged man couldn't help but ask what state he was in Chu Tai's eyes.

"It can be saved, but it will be troublesome to save it. Now I can try to help you suppress some of the alienation, are you willing?"

"Why don't you want to? Just do it."

After receiving the answer, Chu Tai silently made hand gestures and cast a spell, drawing in strands of the power of the cave heaven, and using his own Taiyi Xuanhui Miaodao true qi to stabilize the law of [One], and finally blending it into strands of "Yun Zhongjun" mist and sending it into the middle-aged man's body. "Hmm? Your true qi is a bit strange. It should be the foundation of my Jinhua Sect, but it seems to be mixed with some traces of other sects. And your law is so unique, it seems to be completely independent of all law, but it is also connected to all law. After so many years of practice, I have never seen such a unique law."

After the middle-aged man came into contact with Chu Tai's true energy and Dharma meaning, he sensed it silently, then began to communicate with Chu Tai, while also conveying his perceptions to the others.

The young man and the female cultivator who were interacting with his aura also closed their eyes to sense the changes. Suddenly, the middle-aged man widened his eyes and said, "Wait, what is this? Why can't I sense part of my true energy? No, it's not that I can't sense it, it's that it's hidden..."

The middle-aged man closed his eyes and sensed things on his own. The female cultivator and the young man beside him opened their eyes in surprise. They also realized what the middle-aged man said, but they also couldn't figure out the problem. After looking at each other, they continued to sense with their eyes closed.

About half an hour later, the middle-aged man opened his eyes and said with emotion: "So that's how it is. Because I can't sense it, there won't be any interaction. Because there's no interaction, that part of the alienated true qi won't be strengthened anymore. In this process, I just need to slowly improve my cultivation, and I can dilute the traces of the alien domain little by little, and finally contain and assimilate it."

As he spoke, the man looked at the young man and the female cultivator beside him, asking them if they could sense the changes in their bodies.

The two of them, who were fellow practitioners, shook their heads. The female practitioner even smiled bitterly and said, "I just used a secret technique to make my true Qi highly coincide with yours. Logically, all your changes should not be hidden from me. But if you hadn't intentionally guided me, I would not have been able to detect the changes in your true Qi and body."

The young man next to him also added: "This is not only a concealment of the true qi, but also a concealment of the essence, perception, and cognition. If the general concealment method is to cover something with cloth, and the more sophisticated method is to choose cloth similar to the environment, then the concealment method in your body is a group of mist that can perfectly match the surrounding environment. While covering things, it also expands outward a little."

"This expansion process should be carried out according to the changes of alienation, and each time it just covers up some of the changes caused by alienation. It is a very incredible phenomenon that alienation will not affect your situation while it is going on."

At this point, the young man looked at Chu Tai and asked, "Is this also your ability, Daoist Brother Tai Qing?"

"That's it."

Chu Tai did not give a positive answer, but the young man smiled and said, "I see. It seems that Taiqing, your ability is not to resist at all, but to help us master some of the power of the Immortal Manifestation and the Great Heaven. This ability is the most important for the current Jinhua Sect. If the previous generation of the Sect did not choose you as the head, then the Sect Leader would be blind..."

"Junior brother!"

Hearing some of the words from the young man regarding the previous leader, the female cultivator couldn't help but speak up and remind him to pay attention to his image.

The young man did not say anything after hearing this, and the other ten people also had their own ideas after the three people proved Chu Tai's ability.

But overall, the thirteen people had initial trust in Chu Tai and fully cooperated with Chu Tai's subsequent inspection.

It was not until Chu Tai came to a spiritual root that the old man who relied on the spiritual root to maintain his state suddenly spoke: "Daoyou Taiqing, can I ask you to help me with my corpse transformation?"

At the same time, after being rebuked by Chu Tai, the man who was sealed in the jade stone did not speak again and said, "If you want to transform your corpse, count me in."
