The ancestor is incompetent!

Chapter 104 Expanding the Mountain
To the north is the city, with the city as the boundary. Inside the city is the human world of Nanjue Island, and outside the city is the evil abyss. There are endless monsters trying to climb up to the human world year after year.

Fortunately, there was a Thunder Master in Beilin City to suppress the monsters, so the monsters dared not approach. Therefore, many monks would voluntarily go to Beilin City to seek a moment of enlightenment between life and death, and a glimmer of opportunity.

But more families and sects were exiled to the city, where they could only live in the city for generations, fighting for survival with evil spirits.

Cui Huaiqiu restrained his momentum and said with a smile: "Is the situation in the sect stable now?"

"It is considered stable now." Zhang Qi replied: "We have signed an alliance with the Great True Cultivator of Bailing Sect on the Weiyang Stone, and the Xiang family does not dare to force them too much."

"The sooner the better." Cui Huaiqiu nodded. He did not ask how it was done. He felt relieved just by hearing about Weiyang Shi.

"Do you want to bring some disciples with you? Do you want to set up some sects?" Chen Guan asked, "After all, we need to prepare more spiritual objects when we go to the outer sea."

“No need.” Cui Huaiqiu shook his head and said, “It’s too much of a burden to lead Qi-refining disciples. I’m afraid they can’t even withstand the Yuan magnetic force at the bottom of the mountain. Besides, it’s too much trouble.

We went to the outer sea not to establish a sect, but to find an island with good spiritual potential and practice in seclusion there." Cui Huaiqiu thought carefully and said, "As for the spiritual objects needed for practice, the sea is rich in resources, so I think there will be no shortage. As long as we don't provoke the royal family of the sea, other demon generals will not be a big deal."

Qian Shiyan also nodded and said, "Yes, as long as the true practice is there, the Taoist tradition will be passed down. If the secrets of the sect are leaked out, I am afraid it will lead to a huge disaster."

"In that case, let's set off in half a year." Cui Huaiqiu thought about it and gave a time.

Naturally, everyone had no objection. With seven true practitioners gathered together, even if their magical powers were restrained, there was still a colorful scene in the sky.

The seven true practitioners discussed the various matters of the sect, talked about profound mysteries of the Tao, and recounted old stories. They lasted for three days and three nights before they each left.

Li Xuanyue and Li Xuanming learned about what happened to their ancestors. Although they looked sad, they did not lose control. They returned to Yuncheng to offer sacrifices to their parents and ancestors.

Qian Shiyan was preparing to return to her tribe, saying that she had important matters to attend to.

Zhang Qi returned to his cave to deduce the formation, while Chen Guan was busy dealing with various chores and the important matters of inheritance that the true practitioners had discussed.

Li Yuan, who had the least presence among all the true cultivators, returned to the Chouyun Mountain base to refine his true cultivator corpse puppets and ghosts.

Cui Huaiqiu was strolling leisurely in the mountains, looking at the scenery that was both familiar and unfamiliar. When he came to the top of the peak, he saw the thousand-year-old ginkgo tree still with its yellow leaves fluttering in the wind, but the old people were no longer there.

He sat alone on the top of the mountain, looking at the sky full of stars, recalling the time when Grandmaster Wang Xun had advised him earnestly to go it alone, and Grandmaster Li Yuan had advised him to move forward with a smile as gentle as a spring breeze.

Now that these two are gone, even if he walks alone through the mountains and travels thousands of miles, they will not be able to see him.

Cui Huaiqiu sighed, the rain fell in autumn, and he habitually took off the wine gourd from his waist. During the forty years in Beilin City, he learned to drink to relieve his sorrow and to find peace of mind.

The fragrant wine poured into his mouth, and the rain from the sky wet his moon-white robe. Cui Huaiqiu's usually frowning brows also relaxed. After sixty years of wandering, he returned to the mountains and felt at peace after a night of rain.

He drank a lot of wine, but he didn't use his magical power to get rid of the wine. He just sat on the top of the mountain in a hazy drunken state, holding the gourd in the rain and said with a smile: "Nanwan, if you were still here, you would have gone further. Now you are gone, but I am still here. If there is reincarnation, one day, you and I will meet by the Forgotten River!"

Cui Huaiqiu closed his eyes and lay down, letting the rain wet his face, and fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, as the morning sun rose, I heard the noisy sound of crows.

"Gah~"

Cui Huaiqiu opened his eyes and saw a black crow standing beside his face, looking at him with an inquiring look.

Sitting up, he remembered that this was the spirit beast of the old ancestor Li Yuan, and couldn't help but smile: "Little guy, I haven't seen you for many years, and you have already reached the late stage of Qi Refining."

"Gah~"

Shen Ming looked at the man in front of him curiously, always feeling that there was something about the other person that attracted him.

Cui Huaiqiu reached out and touched its black feathers, and said in amazement: "It is born with life energy. I will give this thing to you."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and seven round beads glowing black appeared on the ground. "These are the soul beads that the evil demons at the true cultivation level transformed after their death. I think they will be of some help to you."

When Chen Ming saw these beads, he screamed in surprise, flapped his wings uncontrollably, and danced like a child.

Cui Huaiqiu couldn't help but laugh when he saw this. His magical power [Golden Heaven] was to kill autumn wounds. In the sky, it was dry. On the ground, it was gold. It was the power of killing and controlling the world. Combined with his sword skills and the Golden Sword Body, his combat power was extremely strong.

After he broke through to the true cultivation level in Beilin City, he had to kill a certain number of evil demons before he could leave the city, so he killed more than a dozen true cultivation evil demons in a row. In addition to the soul beads he handed in, he still had some left.

Chen Ming took the soul beads into his mouth, made two indistinct weird cackling sounds, then spread his wings and flew away.

Cui Huaiqiu was not worried about it being overfed. It was obvious that Chen Ming was very intelligent and knew how to proceed step by step.

He looked out over the mountains. The night rain had stopped and the morning sun was rising. The rainbow had stopped and the rain had stopped. The autumn sky was clear. The mountains were dyed with new green. The autumn scenery was really fascinating. It was time for him to continue on his way.

The only way forward is cultivation. Cui Huaiqiu took out his long sword and gently brushed the cold blade. This was his natal magic sword that had been baptized by countless evil demons under Beilin City. The top-grade magic weapon Jinyun Qiuze Sword had been following him all the way since he was refining Qi.

The sword lives with the man, the sword dies with the man. Now, after years of painstaking refining, and adding several mysterious spiritual objects, and nurturing it with supernatural powers, it has become a mid-grade spiritual sword.

Although it is not a top-grade spiritual sword, when he holds it, it becomes a top-grade spiritual sword.

The way of sword cultivation is nothing more than the sword heart and the sword itself, and then to seek the sword spirit to communicate with the gods.

When you first practice sword, you need to learn sword skills and win by technique.

As your skills become more advanced, you will gradually abandon the teachings of others and seek the teachings of your own self.

After obtaining the method of self-realization, the sword power will become divine and the sword power will be achieved, and one will become a master of swordsmanship.

If one cultivates the sword intent and wants to go one step further, one can become a sword god and possess the supernatural power of sword.

This kind of legendary sword-wielding ability can usually only be achieved by Jindan sword cultivators by combining their status with sword intent, but there are also those with natural talent who can comprehend sword-wielding ability in the realm of true cultivation. Those who are almost as talented as them in status are all eternal prodigies.

Of course, Cui Huaiqiu knew that even though he had the blessing of a sword body, he could not be the eternal prodigy, so he just had to move forward step by step.

The sword spirit flowed inwardly on the sword body, and Cui Huaiqiu began his daily sword training. The Qiuze sword in his hand could be said to be the most valuable thing on his body, even more valuable than himself.

……

Half a month later, Chen Guan once again summoned all the true practitioners in the sect.

The six people got together and discussed the important matters again.

Zhang Qi began with a smile and said, "I finally lived up to your expectations. I have been trying to comprehend the sect's great formation for a long time, and I have finally roughly completed the deduction of the formation base in the past half month.

Although Senior Sister Qian is not here, the six of us are still here, so it is still feasible."

"Well, you are worthy of being the ancient Qi of Tianyan. You can explore the principles of the sky and the mysteries of the earth. You have come up with the base of the formation so quickly." Chen Guanzan said with a smile.

"In that case, then prepare the spiritual objects needed for the formation as soon as possible, and expand the gate of the formation while we are all here." Cui Huaiqiu also nodded and said, "The number of disciples in the sect is increasing, and the spiritual energy within a hundred miles is indeed not enough for the disciples to practice."

As the Qi Ling Sect opened up a new state with a large population, the number of new disciples recruited every three years has gradually increased. Now there are more than a thousand people in the sect.

The land and people requirements of immortal cultivators are naturally very different from those of mortals. If mortals are to live in this hundred-mile area, even tens of thousands of people will not be a problem.

But for those who practice cultivation, such density has indeed affected the disciples' progress in cultivation.

In fact, this is also because the number of true practitioners in the Qi Ling Sect has increased. One true practitioner can consume several times more spiritual energy from heaven and earth than a hundred disciples.

That's why the plan was to expand the mountain gate.

The Qi Ling Sect's mountain protection formation is a top-grade spiritual formation. Although it is very old and has been worn out for a long time, it still has the power of a top-grade spiritual formation. Now that the mountain gate is expanded, many formation bases and formation prohibitions must naturally be renovated.

As these were important matters concerning the sect's inheritance, Chen Guan was not confident in letting the Qi-refining disciples take action. So, since all the true practitioners in the sect were present, he let them work together to carve the magic bans and set up the formation base, so that there would be no mistakes.

Then the disciples in the mountain discovered that the light curtain of the formation that had covered the sky for many years began to slowly dissipate. At the same time, the earth and the mountains shook, and loud noises came from all directions.

The deacons in the mountain had received the inside information earlier, and they all calmed down the disciples in the mountain, ordering them not to move, and wait for the elders to display their magical powers and complete their work.

Amidst the vast cloud of smoke and dust, the spirit of the formation, the Thousand Giant Puppets, appeared in the mountains. A dark yellow light rose from each of the mountains in the four directions, and the bases of the formation shone. Cui Huaiqiu, Chen Guan, Li Yuan, and Li Xuanming stood on each side, and Zhang Qi stood in the center. Countless Taoist bans gathered from all directions.

Zhang Qi untied his eye bands and looked at the spiritual restrictions of the formation. With the help of the formation spirit, he reconstructed the formation bit by bit.

Li Xuanyue stood by to protect everyone and prevent other true practitioners with ill intentions from taking the opportunity to cause trouble.

The light of the great formation flickered for seven days and seven nights, and finally on the eighth day, all the prohibitions merged into one. The thousand-puppets giant grew taller, absorbing more power from the earth's veins, and its body grew to a size of five hundred feet.

The mountain gate of Qi Lingmen was expanded four times as much, becoming an area of ​​more than four or five hundred miles, covering dozens of peaks. Mist surrounded the mountains, and pavilions and terraces stood on stones. Disciples walked back and forth among them, giving it a rather grand atmosphere.

After Chen Guan and others set up the formation base, they all stood on the clouds and looked at Qi Lingmen below them, all with smiles on their brows.

It was rare for Zhang Qi not to wear a belt. Although his eyes were red and he was exhausted, he looked at the vast Qi Ling Mountain Gate and thought with relief: "Master, you should be relieved too."

　I recommend a good book. Those who are short of books can read it. "This Chaos is Not Serious!" The book is as its name suggests. It feels a bit crazy after reading it. It is like Mr. Ke giving out candy. It is humorous and relaxed, and the painting style is really unique.
