Nine Transformations of the True Spirit.

Chapter 196 Great Monk

Chen Yuan was startled for a moment, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, Senior Sister. After I left the sect, I hid my tracks and acted carefully. After completing the mission, I rushed back to the sect directly and did not encounter those demons."

He did not tell anyone about his encounter with Liu Fan, otherwise he would not be able to explain how he could escape from Liu Fan, who was at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage when he was only at the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment stage.

Shen Danmei was relieved and warned: "The demon cultivators are becoming more and more rampant now. You have just entered the middle stage of foundation building and have no experience in dealing with demon cultivators. It is better to be careful."

"Next time you accept a sect mission, tell me and I will share the mission with you. Once you have accumulated some experience, you can complete the mission on your own."

Chen Yuan felt warm in his heart and said, "Senior sister, I appreciate your kindness."

"But I have to practice in seclusion. I will not accept any more sect missions in the next few years. After I come out of seclusion, I will ask Senior Sister for advice."

According to the Lingyun Sect's rules, foundation-building cultivators can share sect tasks, but the rewards for good deeds will be reduced by 30%, which is not worth the loss. Shen Danmei's move is entirely to take care of him.

Shen Danmei was surprised when she heard this: "You just came out of seclusion not long ago, and you are going to seclude yourself again?"

Chen Yuan explained: "I was forced to come out of seclusion because of the sect's mission."

"Also, I received a lot of rewards for good deeds during this sect mission. I exchanged some three-hundred-year-old spiritual herbs from the Alchemy Pavilion and refined them into pills that can be used for cultivation for several years."

Shen Danmei smiled and said, "Junior brother, you are really lucky, but the invasion of the Demon Sect is imminent. In addition to improving your cultivation, don't forget to prepare some means to save your life."

"Don't worry, Senior Sister. I won't have to worry about it."

Chen Yuan agreed, and then thought of the matter between Sun Congyao and Lian Yan, and asked, "The reason why I was able to exchange spiritual herbs from the Alchemy Pavilion this time was thanks to Senior Brother Sun who introduced me to Lian Yan, the head of the Alchemy Pavilion."

"There seems to be some story between the two of them. Senior Sister, do you know the inside story?"

He asked about this not because he was curious about Sun Congyao's private affairs.

But he would have to exchange spiritual herbs from the Alchemy Pavilion in the future, and he would inevitably have to deal with Lian Yan.

If he didn't figure out the relationship between her and Sun Congyao, Chen Yuan wouldn't dare to reveal the five hundred year old spiritual herb on his body.

Shen Danmei sighed softly: "Junior Brother Chen, you owe Senior Brother Sun a big favor this time."

"He and Senior Sister Lian haven't had any contact for more than ten years, but this time he is willing to ask Senior Sister Lian for help for your matter. It is really surprising."

Chen Yuan bowed and said, "Please give me some advice, Senior Sister."

Shen Danmei's eyes showed a look of reminiscence: "More than forty years ago, before I succeeded in building my foundation, Senior Brother Sun and Senior Sister Lian were in love and were about to become Taoist couples."

"But for some reason, Master had a conflict with Senior Sister Lian's master, Elder Wen. Master is a free-spirited person and naturally would not control the private affairs of his disciples, but Elder Wen strictly ordered Senior Sister Lian to cut off contact with Senior Brother Sun."

"Although Senior Sister Lian loves Senior Brother Sun deeply, she dares not disobey the master's orders. And you also know that Senior Brother Sun respects his master the most. Even if the master did not interfere, he would not fall in love with Elder Wen's disciple again."

"Since then, Senior Brother Sun and Senior Sister Lian have severed all ties and rarely meet in private."

"But because of Senior Brother Sun, I have a pretty good relationship with Senior Sister Lian."

"Although Sister Lian doesn't dare to meet me too often due to Elder Wen's order, she would send me notes from time to time to ask about Brother Sun's recent situation. It can be seen that she still misses Brother Sun..."

Chen Yuan frowned, "Elder Wen forbids Senior Sister Lian from interacting with Senior Brother Sun, but Senior Brother Sun invited Senior Sister Lian into the cave for my sake. Will this cause him trouble?"

Shen Danmei said: "Don't worry, Junior Brother. The matter between Elder Wen and Master is also full of twists and turns. I can't go into details, but it all comes down to love."

"She should have regretted it a long time ago, but she didn't lift the restrictions on Senior Sister Lian just to save face."

"Perhaps because of this incident, Senior Brother Sun and Senior Sister Lian will be able to rekindle their relationship."

Chen Yuan was surprised and asked, "Elder Wen and Master are actually hating each other because of love?"

Shen Danmei nodded and said, "Yes, there was a story between her and Master, but I don't know the details."

Chen Yuan nodded and said, "Thank you for your reminder, Senior Sister. Since this matter will not embarrass Senior Brother Sun, I am relieved."

All his worries were gone, and he took the initiative to change the subject, chatting with Shen Danmei for a few words before saying goodbye and leaving, returning to the cave in Yunyin Peak to meditate and practice.

However, he did not take the elixir, but simply absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Late at night, Chen Yuan woke up from his meditation, came to the stone chamber with a skylight, took out the jade pendant, and drew the starlight into his body.

In the past six months, he had been refining pills in the underground fire room, wasting a lot of time on starlight infusion.

After thirty breaths, the silver starlight dissipated, and the true energy in Chen Yuan's dantian was completely consumed.

He felt his strength increase by one point and his spiritual awareness expand by three inches, and a smile appeared on the corners of his mouth.

Chen Yuan put away the jade pendant, blocked the skylight again, returned to the training room, closed his eyes and meditated to restore his true energy.

Three days later, his inner essence was fully restored. He took a Qingning Pill, slowly closed his eyes, and followed the instructions in "Nine Transformations of the True Spirit" to silently gather his energy and practice, refining the medicinal power and improving his cultivation. …

At the border between Qi and Wu, high above the sky.

This place is thousands of feet above the ground, with howling winds, and its power is comparable to that of magic weapons. Even a Jindan Zhenren cannot hold on for a moment.

Suddenly, several beams of light flew from the south at an extremely fast speed. In an instant, they crossed a thousand feet and gathered together, revealing six figures.

These six people have different appearances and ages. They are restrained and seem to have no cultivation at all. However, if the strong wind blows within ten feet around them, it will disappear into thin air.

Treating the Nine Heavens Strong Wind as nothing, these six people are actually the Nascent Soul cultivators who are as elusive as a mysterious dragon in the world of immortal cultivation!

Six Nascent Soul cultivators stood above the Nine Heavens, looking towards the north with solemn expressions and remained silent.

After a while, four beams of light flew in from afar, crossing thousands of feet in an instant, and stopped in front of the six people, revealing four figures.

One of them was wearing a dark gown and looked extremely young, only seventeen or eighteen years old, even a bit immature, but his eyes were full of vicissitudes, as if he had experienced the world and understood the world.

He bowed to the six Nascent Soul cultivators who had arrived here first, and said with a smile, "I have heard of your great names for a long time, and today I am finally fortunate enough to meet you. I am honored to meet you, the head of the Blood Spirit Sect, Yan Zhang."

To the left of Yan Zhang stood a female cultivator, who was dressed in palace clothes and had a curvy figure. Her face was covered with a layer of plain white gauze, hiding her mouth and nose. There was a hint of sadness in the corners of her eyes, as if she was expressing endless love.

She bowed to the six people and said softly, "Heavenly Sect Master Chaolu greets the six Taoist friends."

One of these two people looks like an accomplished master, and the other seems to be a fairy who has fallen into the mortal world. They are actually the notorious magic cultivators in Donghua Continent, and they are in charge of two of the five major sects of the magic world.

Yan Zhang is a great cultivator who has cultivated to the late Nascent Soul stage. His magic skills are profound and unparalleled. Looking across the entire Donghua Continent, he has few rivals.

The six Nascent Soul cultivators did not dare to be negligent and returned the greetings one after another.

One of the monks, wearing a Taoist robe and with white hair, stepped out from the crowd and said calmly, "I am the old Taoist, Du Qing, the head of Ziyang Sect. Nice to meet you two Taoist friends."

"My two Taoist friends have invited the six sect leaders to gather here. I wonder what you have to say?"

These six Nascent Soul cultivators are the leaders of the six major sects of Qi State.

Among them, the one with the highest level of cultivation is Taoist Du Qing, who is in the middle stage of Nascent Soul.

The Zi Yang Sect was the largest sect in Qi State, and he was the one who stepped forward to face the leaders of the two evil sects.

Taoist Du Qing gathered the strength of the six sects and did not show the slightest fear even when facing a great cultivator.

Yan Zhang looked at Du Qing and said with a smile, "Nothing special. I came here to tell you that the monks of our Blood Spirit Sect and the Joyous Union Sect will invade Qi in three years."

"If the six sects of Qi State do not want to end up like the four sects of Wu State and be destroyed, they can migrate to avoid disaster before that. The cultivators of the two sects will never stop them."

He said this lightly, but after he finished speaking, the strong wind within a thousand feet radius suddenly became violent, whistling loudly, as if it was going to tear the sky and earth apart.

Taoist Du Qing's expression was slightly solemn. He waved his sleeves and suppressed the force of the strong wind by half. However, it was still very powerful, swirling and dancing, forming hundreds of tornadoes, converging towards the six people.

A tall, middle-aged monk with a long sword on his back snorted coldly, glanced around, and shot out two sword energies, rushing out thousands of feet, tearing two gaps in the tornado group, and wiped out dozens of
Another black-haired old man raised his hand and waved it. An invisible wave spread out and the violent Nine Heavens Gale finally subsided.

These two people, like Taoist Du Qing, are cultivators in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. However, it took the combined efforts of the three to barely quell the Nine Heavens Gale that Yan Zhang had casually created.

The six Nascent Soul cultivators looked at Yan Zhang with fear in their eyes.

As expected of a great monk, his every move exudes immense power.

Of course, if one uses magical powers and treasures, anyone can calm the strong wind.

But Yan Zhang just did it casually. If they used their magic weapons and supernatural powers, they would be inferior.

Du Qing said in a deep voice: "I'm sorry that I can't obey what Sect Leader Yan said. The Six Sects of Qi have been passed down for thousands of years and will never abandon their sects."

Yan Zhang shook his head slightly: "If that's the case, then we can only do it once."

The middle-aged monk carrying a long sword snorted coldly: "Come on!"

The long sword on his back suddenly came out of its sheath, making a sound that could be heard hundreds of miles away, like the roar of a dragon or a tiger.

Yan Zhang smiled and said, "Is this Fellow Daoist Shen from the Tiangang Sword Sect?"

"Friend Shen, please be patient. We are Yuanying cultivators who are in charge of a sect. If we personally participate in the fight, not only will we lose face, but if we are not careful, hundreds of years of hard work will be wasted. Isn't that a pity?"

The middle-aged cultivator sneered and said, "This is a matter of life and death for the sect. If the sect master doesn't come out in person, will he let his disciples decide the outcome?"
