The ancestor is incompetent!

Chapter 154: True Man's Might
Above Linglong Sect, the setting sun was blood-red. The grand light from the south was only in one corner, and its glory could not reach the north. However, it could add a touch of bright gold to the sky. The orange, golden, lavender, and fiery red clouds intertwined and smudged each other, making the entire sky gorgeous and dazzling.

Under the endless clouds, in front of the majestic mountains, five mountain masters and seventeen true practitioners faced each other in silence. Below them were mountains of corpses and seas of blood, a purgatory on earth; above their heads were thousands of layers of sea of ​​clouds and the beautiful scenery of heaven.

Wang Qianli, the leader, glanced at the glory of the south. That was the joy of others, not his own miracle. His own fate had never changed since the moment it was determined.

"The destiny of the Qi Ling Ancient Sect is endless, and it is not something we can imitate. Let's take a risk and give it a try. What do you think?"

She asked this to the people behind her. Xiang Daizong, Ling Qiuyu and others all looked at her with heavy eyes. They were all important figures who had lived for at least hundreds of years. None of them were weak-minded and incompetent. Even when facing death, they could make the most favorable decision for themselves.

Mother Fang San spoke first, "We are all going to die. We have been busy and scheming for cultivation, for the orthodoxy, for the descendants of our clan, and for our disciples. When we die, we should at least pray for ourselves once.

"Brother Qianli, please come. Whether it succeeds or not, I, the old woman, will have no second thoughts."

Hearing this, Xiang Daizong also smiled with relief, "Senior Fang is right, I agree with him."

Ling Qiuyu then said, "I am willing to do the same, fellow Daoist Qianli, just tell me."

Then the rest of the people agreed one by one, and Wang Qianli patiently asked them one by one, waiting for their definite approval, without leaving out any one, and then he said solemnly: "Thank you for thinking highly of me, and I will not let you fellow Taoists down."

After saying that, she took a step forward and stood in the air, her bright red armor waving in the wind. Wang Qianli said calmly, "Five mountain masters, things have come to this point. We are willing to accept the order of the real person. We only hope to see the real person! We are willing to do so."

As soon as these words were spoken, the five mountain masters looked at each other in bewilderment. In the current situation, if they did not have the real masters behind them and the seventeen real cultivators in front of them, it would be really not enough for the five of them to take the position except for some real disciples in Linglong Sect.

But things in this world cannot be viewed so simply. Master Jiang is in power and has determined their fates and their strengths.

To the living beings of Nanjue Island, Master Jiang is like a superior in the mortal world. His status is like authority, the authority of heaven and earth. Once he holds authority, he will definitely be the weak.

The Lord of Beicang Mountain hesitated for a moment before speaking: "This... I admire your courage and bravery for coming here. I just want to see the Immortal Master. At this time, we dare not rashly disturb the Immortal Master's meditation."

Wang Qianli saw them shirking their responsibilities, his face darkened, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "You all go and ask for my permission, and tell them that I, Wang Qianli, will not start asking for a position unless I see the real person in person!"

"You!" The Lord of Jinhua Mountain became furious upon hearing this, but when he thought that the other party was going to die, he could not say anything to stop him.

Wang Qianli is very different from the other sixteen upper-level true cultivators. They just want to increase their spiritual energy and have no choice. Even if they want to struggle, there are only two results: die voluntarily or be slapped to death by the true cultivator.

But Wang Qianli was different. The worst that could happen to her was that she would just die and be done with it. However, Nanjue Island was still missing a Ding Fire position. If she did not ascend the throne and die, one of the five fires would be missing, and she would not be able to have all five fires. She would disappear and return to the earth, and the entire Qi realm of the heaven and earth on Nanjue Island would still be missing one Ding Fire position.

"Om~"

Just when everyone was in trouble, rosy clouds gathered and fell from the sky, and a rosy glow came down, with a halo of light for thousands of miles. Dust and sand from all directions gathered here, and in the blink of an eye a thousand-foot-high mountain stood beside everyone. On the top of the mountain stood an old Taoist with a childlike face and white hair, holding a whisk, with a faint smile on his face and a kind look.

As soon as this Taoist appeared in the world, he ordered all the Qi from the four directions to retreat, and within a thousand miles, Wu Earth dominated.

"Greetings to the Immortal, respectfully welcome the Immortal's arrival!"

The five mountain masters of Linglong Sect immediately knelt down respectfully to greet him.

Although the seventeen true practitioners were determined to meet this real person in person, they were all at a loss when he appeared in the world.

Master Jiang, who can decide the fate of countless lives on Nanjue Island, the great master who stands above all living beings, is the fundamental reason why Linglong Sect dominates Nanjue, and he is also the person involved in the current situation.

After Wang Qianli overcame many thoughts in his heart, he trembled slightly and said, "Greetings, Master. I, Wang Qianli, dare to invite you!"

The sixteen true practitioners behind him then bowed respectfully in unison, "Greetings, True Immortal!"

Master Jiang smiled faintly, like a kind elder, "You all have done your best to help me achieve enlightenment, and I will remember it in my heart.

Since you all want to see me, you must have something to ask for, so tell me what you want to say."

When this real person appeared in the world, a thousand-foot-high peak was created wherever he stepped. Moreover, as he appeared in the world for a longer time, the power of Earth from farther away was also attracted, and the giant mountain beneath him was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Wang Qianli gritted his teeth and said boldly: "Junior dares to ask for a chance to reincarnate!"

Even if she died without succeeding in seeking the throne, it does not necessarily mean that she will have to reincarnate and cleanse her soul and forget all her past events. As long as Master Jiang does not try to stop her, she is confident that with her own skills, she can seal her memories and be reborn with her status. Then, as long as she overcomes the mystery in the womb, she will be able to continue her journey of seeking the Tao in this life.

Moreover, relying on the reincarnation of status, the spiritual root qualifications in the next life will most likely not be too bad, and may even be better than this life.

But not everyone can rely on the reincarnation of a status. One must be able to attract the status to be qualified. If one cannot even attract the status, then most likely one can only enter the reincarnation and completely erase the memory, and it is unknown what one will be reincarnated into.

Wang Qianli lowered his head nervously, not daring to look the immortal in the eye. The consequence of doing so would be to leave a disaster for Immortal Jiang, an enemy who might ascend to the throne in the future!
Master Jiang stood on the top of the mountain. After listening to her words and requests, he just laughed and said, "Whether it is reincarnation or rebirth, it is up to you to decide. I will not interfere."

Hearing this, Wang Qianli was pleasantly surprised and said respectfully: "Junior thanks you, Immortal! Junior will do his best to guide you and help you achieve enlightenment!"

Seeing that she had succeeded, the others were all delighted and had hope.

Wang Qianli made up his mind after he finished speaking. He bowed to Master Jiang and thanked him. Then he said to the people behind him, "Qianli will go first. I wish all of you Taoist friends can get what you want!
Farewell! "

After saying this, she looked back towards her hometown in the southwest and the land of the King of East Chu's family, as if she had forgotten all worldly affairs. She stood up resolutely, activated her magical powers, and the Ding fire Qi from all directions gathered together.

Ding Fire floats in all directions, attracting stars in the sky and turning into thousands of lamps and candles on the ground, which are scattered all over the earth like countless sparks, and have the potential to start a prairie fire.

The sixteen true practitioners all sighed and said:
"Goodbye, fellow Taoist."

Above the Nine Heavens, the Ding Fire status was revealed. Wang Qianli, wearing a battle robe and armor, walked up to the sky with a determined look. Under his feet, layers of lights appeared, stretching up to the Nine Heavens. In the distant Dongchu Wang family, when the Wang family members saw the Ding Fire star in the sky light up, they burst into tears and bowed together, saying, "Farewell, ancestor!"

Wang Qianli ascended to the sky with a smile, the power of Ding Fire gradually climbed. She was like a bright and sunny red, fearless and tenacious, gradually sinking into the layers of bright flames in the sky, until a long time later, when the stars in the sky flickered and the lights on the ground swayed, a fire phoenix wailed and fell from the sky, dragging a long tail of flame.

Everyone present sighed, their expressions melancholy but relieved. At least Wang Qian was freed from her, and looking at the situation, she would most likely be reincarnated, and perhaps she would go further in her next life.

On the mountain, Master Jiang withdrew his gaze. He did not seem to be disturbed by the strange sight of falling trees. He just smiled and asked, "What about you?"

As soon as these words came out, Fang San Pozi said with a desperate attitude: "I, a humble cultivator, dare to ask the Immortal to solve a doubt. May I ask the Immortal, among the four metals, what should I seek for the Rooster Metal?"

Master Jiang pondered for a moment and said, "You are not cultivating the Way of Rooster Metal, right? This Way has been hidden from the world since ancient times, hidden in the golden bell of the Wanfoxiang Temple. In the sky, it is collected as the moon, in the ground, it is hidden as gold, and in objects, it turns into pearls and precious objects. It is precious and cannot be obtained by people who are not extremely lucky.

If you want to ascend to the throne, you have to go to the Western Great Desire Buddha Realm of the Twelve Immortal Sects to seek it. The journey is long and the tribulations are many. This is all I know."

"Thank you for telling me, Immortal! I bow down to you!"

After that, she turned around and smiled at the fifteen true practitioners: "I have wasted thousands of years, and today I am finally free. Goodbye, everyone!"

Xiang Daizong and the others could only return the greeting with a melancholy look on their faces, saying, "Farewell, fellow Taoist!"

She smiled and her body turned into a sky full of silver-yellow light, scattering tiny bits of broken crystal like stars, floating in all directions. She did not seek to ascend to the throne, but went to her death alone, leaving calmly.

Everyone withdrew their gazes, and Ling Qiuyu stepped forward and said, "I dare to ask you to allow me to reincarnate like you did to me, my friend!"

Master Jiang glanced at her, his eyes moved slightly and he said, "My friend, your luck is lacking. I'm afraid it will be difficult to succeed."

Ling Qiuyu looked sad when she heard that. That was right. With the Earth element in power now, how could she be allowed to seek for a position with the Water element?
But when she was feeling sad, she heard the immortal say, "If you are determined to do this, you can give it a try."

"What? Thank you, Immortal! Xiao Xiu thanks you, Immortal!"

Ling Qiuyu's face lit up with joy immediately, and he bowed to Master Jiang again, kowtowed to the fourteen true practitioners, then ascended to heaven and displayed his supernatural powers, drawing in the sky full of tranquil jade water. The sound of countless flowing jade springs resounded in all directions, dyeing the sky and earth with a emerald green light.

His magical power [Quiet Jade Heart] was manifested to the extreme, sensing the true water level in the dark. After half an hour, the true water level above the nine heavens gradually emerged, but this level was visible and did not fall. It was indeed impossible to lead it down as Master Jiang said.

Ling Qiuyu in mid-air saw this scene and obviously understood the situation. Her face showed despair. Her soul had already left her body. If her status could not be brought back, she would not even have the chance to reincarnate. Her soul would be destroyed along with her status.

But at this critical moment, Master Jiang on the top of the mountain silently stretched out his hand and pointed, and a real water spirit object appeared in the sky. It was the Canghai Pearl, a real water spirit object of the lowest grade.

As soon as the pearl appeared, it released waves of the vast ocean, lifting up Ling Qiuyu's soul and merging it. She was immediately shocked by the help of this spiritual object from heaven and earth, and she was grateful for its status. She drew in real water, and pieces of broken jade condensed into steps and appeared in the sky.

Ling Qiuyu bowed to Master Jiang in gratitude in the sky, then ascended to the sky and stepped into the strong wind layer.

Not long after, broken jade was seen falling from the sky. The infinite jade color turned into green rain, washing the clear blue sky for thousands of miles, and the real water fell away.

When the true practitioners saw this scene, they couldn't help but feel a sense of awe and respect above fear.

Even though the True Water Attribute is not compatible with the Earth Attribute, Master Jiang is still willing to lend a helping hand to Ling Qiuyu and help her successfully guide her to reincarnation.

Even though Ling Qiuyu was just an ant to Master Jiang, and the problem could be solved with a simple slap of his hand, he was still willing to use earth-grade spiritual objects to help her.

It is human nature to respect and behave well towards those in higher positions, but not everyone can do the same towards those in lower positions.

The real person's demeanor makes people respect him.

Then, facing everyone's admiration, he was not moved at all and continued to look at the next person.

Xiang Daizong opened his mouth and hesitated for a moment, then said, "Master, I would like to ask for a favor. There is a descendant in my family named Xiang Yunhuan, but I hope you can take care of him in the future."

"I've made note of it." Master Jiang nodded in response, without asking him why he didn't ask for it for himself.

He bowed respectfully to Daizong and let out a long sigh as if relieved of a heavy burden. He had practiced for hundreds of years for the sake of his clan and future generations. This life was too tiring and he did not want to repeat the same thing in the next life. As the ancestor of the Xiang family, he had done his best for the younger generations of his clan, and he had a clear conscience even when facing all the ancestors of the Xiang family.

If there is an afterlife, no matter what, he just wants to be himself.

The stars were shining, and a purple star suddenly appeared in the sky. A bright purple star split from the sky and fell heavily on the Nanjue Island. The starlight dimmed and the earth shook.

The next person was Taoist Jiansong from Cangsong Pavilion. He said expectantly, "I am here to see the Immortal. May I ask how I can obtain the status of Maomu?"

Master Jiang withdrew his gaze from the vast starry sky, looked at Taoist Jiansong, and said lightly: "The splitting of life and incarnation, stealing the sky and passing on life, cannot be hidden from this poor Taoist."

As soon as these words came out, Taoist Jiansong knelt down with a terrified look on his face and said, "Master, please spare my life! Master, please spare my life! I was confused for a moment..."

Before he finished speaking, Master Jiang waved his whisk, and the Taoist Jiansong in front of him instantly turned into a green light. The mighty Yin wood energy spread in all directions, causing all the trees within a thousand miles to grow lush and dense.

At the same time, Master Jiang waved his whisk again, and boundless rays of light floated down to Cangsong Pavilion. The entire Cangsong Pavilion was covered by the rays of light and turned into a barren mountain and valley. All of his disciples were killed, and this Taoist school thus disappeared from the world.

This scene made the cultivators, who already had respect for him, feel a chill in their hearts. This was the power of a True Man. In a split second, he could decide the fate of thousands of lives and the destiny of the Taoist tradition.
