Nine Transformations of the True Spirit.

Chapter 141: Scarlet Sky Record

Shen Danmei's question was also what Chen Yuan and Sun Yao were confused about.

Although the righteous and the evil are enemies on the surface, the cultivators practice Taoism only for immortality. The righteous cultivators will not take it as their responsibility to eliminate evil and defend the way. The evil cultivators also have their own sphere of influence and have no time to fight with the righteous cultivators.

But now, the demon monks have suddenly started a fight and even destroyed a country. This shows how firm their determination is, which is extremely puzzling.

Jin Luoheng shook his head slightly: "Master, I don't know either. This matter is extremely strange. It is the responsibility of the righteous cultivators to resist the invasion of the demons, but the southern countries turned a blind eye and watched the demon cultivators destroy the Wu Kingdom."

Sun Yaocong frowned and said, "Master, why don't the six sects of Qi come to the aid of Wu?"

Jin Luoheng said: "The elders of each sect know that the lips and teeth are cold. As soon as the demon monks invaded Wu Kingdom, they discussed joining forces to help, but were stopped by the head of the sect. Although we don't understand his intention, the head of the sect has a far-sighted vision and has his reasons, so we can only give up and watch Wu Kingdom fall."

After hearing this, the three of them became even more suspicious, but since even Jin Luoheng didn't know the reason, there was no point in asking further.

However, one thing is certain, the invasion of Qi by the evil forces is inevitable.

Jin Luoheng said: "This is a great disaster. The demons have joined forces and their strength far exceeds that of Qi's immortal cultivation world. I dare not say that I can protect myself. You must be more careful. In the next four years, I will be in charge of the sect and will assign you some relatively simple tasks. You must seize the opportunity to improve your cultivation."

Upon hearing this, the three of them all showed joy on their faces and thanked Jin Luoheng in unison.

According to the Lingyun Sect's rules, core disciples can practice at peace without worrying about sect affairs, but they must complete at least one sect mission every ten years, otherwise they will be severely punished.

But this task can be difficult or easy. The difficult ones may include hunting down cultivators in the late stage of foundation building and collecting materials from fourth-level monsters. The easy ones may include handing in a second-level monster pill and refining a furnace of foundation building pills.

The rewards vary depending on the difficulty of the task.

The core disciples of Lingyun Sect rely on completing sect missions, gaining merits, and then exchanging them for elixirs for cultivation.

Jin Luoheng used his power to arrange sect missions for them that were less difficult but offered more generous rewards, so that the three of them would have more time to practice before the battle between good and evil began.

……

Jin Luoheng explained the matter of the demonic invasion clearly, and spent another hour explaining to the three people the difficult problems in their cultivation before letting them leave.

After Chen Yuan and the other two walked out of Jinluoheng Cave, Sun Congyao handed a furnace of spiritual herbs to Chen Yuan and asked him to refine the Yuliang Pill.

Chen Yuan had already made a plan for this matter and agreed with Sun Congyao that he would give the elixir to him three months later.

The three of them told each other the address of the cave so that if anything happened in the future, they could just communicate directly.

In addition, Chen Yuan learned from the two that Sun Congyao, like his senior brother Lin Hao, was a cultivator in the late foundation building stage, while Shen Danmei was a cultivator in the middle foundation building stage.

The fact that these two were accepted as disciples by Jin Luoheng must be due to their own extraordinary qualities, and their cultivation speed is different from that of ordinary people.

Moreover, according to Chen Yuan's guess, the strength of the two should not be bad, at least they are at the top among the cultivators of the same level.

The three of them talked for a while before Chen Yuan said goodbye to Sun Congyao and Shen Danmei, and rode on his escape light to the Sutra Repository.

The Sutra Repository was still deserted. Old man Geng was sitting on a recliner, holding an ancient book in his hands, and his face looked a little older than before.

When he saw someone coming, he raised his head and greeted with a smile: "Junior brother..."

Suddenly, his eyes widened and he stammered, "You, you are..."

Chen Yuan glanced at him with a half-smile: "Brother Geng, do you still remember me?"

Old man Geng laughed dryly: "Haha, Junior Brother Chen... Junior Brother Chen bought that broken stele from me, how could I forget it? I haven't seen you for ten years, and I never thought that Junior Brother Chen has successfully built his foundation. It's really cause for celebration."

Chen Yuan said calmly: "It was just luck. I just made a breakthrough not long ago. This time I came here to choose a technique to practice."

As he spoke, he touched his storage bag, took out his identity jade card, raised his hand and waved it, and handed it to Old Man Geng.

Old Man Geng grabbed the identity jade token that flew slowly towards him, probed into his spiritual sense, sensed it, and nodded, "Yes, Junior Brother Chen can choose any technique on the second floor of the Sutra Library."

He returned the identity jade token to Chen Yuan and reminded him, "Brother Chen has twelve hours to choose a technique. Don't miss the time."

Chen Yuan took the jade identity card, nodded, turned around and walked into the Sutra Library, and went straight to the second floor.

Old Man Geng looked at Chen Yuan's back and murmured, "How could such a fool be able to break through to the foundation-building stage?"

……

The area of ​​the second floor of the Sutra Repository is much smaller than that of the first floor. There are no books on the bookshelves on the second floor, but jade slips are hanging on them, emitting a faint light.

Chen Yuan followed the signs and came to the bookshelf where the Fire Element Kung Fu was stored. He picked up the jade slip and looked through them one by one.

These jade slips of martial arts techniques have been set up with spiritual restrictions to hide the detailed contents, and only give a brief introduction.

As long as Chen Yuan unlocks the restriction on one jade slip, he will no longer be able to touch the other jade slips.

He spent half an hour selecting a martial arts technique called "Red Sky Record".

This technique can be practiced to the late stage of Jindan. It only focuses on the progress of cultivation and does not involve any magical powers. It is extremely simple to practice.

Chen Yuan has already practiced "Nine Transformations of the True Spirit" and cannot switch to other techniques, so he doesn't care about the quality of "Red Sky Record".

In order not to arouse Old Man Geng's suspicion, he stayed on the second floor of the Sutra Library for another two hours before going to the first floor with the jade slip of Chi Xiao Lu.

Choosing a technique is the top priority for a cultivator. If he only has half an hour to choose one, it would seem too hasty.

Under the watchful eyes of Old Man Geng, Chen Yuan copied the "Red Sky Record" into a blank jade slip. He then handed the original jade slip to Old Man Geng and left the Sutra Library.

He did not fly away immediately, but took out a sound transmission note and sent it out.

He wanted to tell Jin Luoheng that he had chosen "Red Sky Record".

This is a matter of etiquette. After a disciple has chosen a method of cultivation, he should inform his master immediately.

Moreover, although "The Red Sky Record" is only a technique used to cover up one's true identity, Chen Yuan put a lot of thought into choosing this technique.

There are two fire-based exercises up to the Nascent Soul stage in the Sutra Library, but they are much more difficult to practice than "The Red Sky Record".

Moreover, choosing these two skills might give Jin Luoheng the impression that he is too ambitious, so Chen Yuan excluded them first.

It is also not advisable to choose a technique that can only be cultivated to the Jindan stage.

This might lead Jin Luoheng to mistakenly believe that Chen Yuan's faith in Taoism was not strong enough and that he did not take him seriously enough.

"Red Sky Record" is neither good nor bad. It is a moderate choice and you can't go wrong.

After Chen Yuan sent out the sound transmission note, he changed his mind and sent two more sound transmission notes to Mo Jingchun and Yi Jin respectively.

Before entering the secret realm, the two helped him a lot. Now that he has returned to the sect, he naturally wants to meet them.

Moreover, the invasion of demons is imminent, so Chen Yuan needs to make friends with his fellow disciples so that he can be more confident in protecting himself in this disaster.

After all, Jin Luoheng, as a Jindan cultivator, treated this calamity so seriously that Chen Yuan couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency in his heart.

Lingyun Sect is located in the northern border of Qi State, closest to Wu State, and is the first to be hit by the invasion of the demonic sect.

As a core disciple, he must fight against the demonic monks.

But his current cultivation level is too low, and he must break through the middle stage of foundation building as soon as possible, and then combine it with a strong physical body to have a certain ability to protect himself.

In addition, the search for the descendants of the true spirit must also be started.

If he could refine a kind of true spirit essence and blood, he would be able to master its innate magical powers, his strength would definitely increase greatly, and his ability to preserve his life would also be greatly enhanced.

However, the descendants of the true spirit are hard to find, so we can only take it step by step.

The most urgent task is to improve your cultivation.

In this case, Chen Yuan would need a large amount of spiritual herbs to refine the pills.

Mo Jingchun has a wide network of contacts. If he can get the purple-leaf lotus, he should be able to get other hundred-year-old spiritual herbs as well.

Chen Yuan is not short of spirit stones now, he only lacks spirit herbs.

If he could get the three hundred-year-old spiritual herbs for refining Zengyuan Dan from Mo Jingchun, his cultivation speed would definitely be greatly accelerated.
