The ancestor is incompetent!

Chapter 94 Xuangui Pond

Chapter 94 Xuangui Pond

Half a year later, over the western city, the sky was covered with broken clouds and the setting sun was setting. Many mottled marks were left on the city. It was obvious that it had been through a long war, and the light curtain and magic ban of the formation were not as bright as before.

On the high tower of the city wall, the west wind blew the grass and trees in the wilderness, and also blew Wang Qianli's fine hair behind her temples. She was wearing a fire cloud phoenix armor, and beside her stood a tall flaming maple flag, which fluttered in the wind.

Although her breath was a little unstable, her true energy was much more condensed than before. In every great battle, Wang Qianli had to face enemies that were several times her size, but she was able to escape unscathed every time. She even improved her combat skills and became more adept at using her magical powers in each fight. Not only did her cultivation not suffer, but it improved three times faster than usual.

All the monks in the city had sad expressions and dull eyes. Having endured the torture of life and death for so long, they had long lost their monk spirit.

However, behind the city, there are still groups of disciples preparing to travel to the border and enter this border town between life and death.

On the city wall, Wang Xuanchang looked at Wang Qianli standing alone in the wind and sighed, "Little sister, it's because of our brothers' incompetence that you have suffered."

Wang Qianli, wearing armor and holding a flag, did not look back. He just looked at the intersection of heaven and earth in the distance and smiled faintly, "We are all from the same clan. When the ancestor is gone, someone has to carry the banner. It's either me or you. It's better for me to do it."

"My second brother said that everything is ready. As long as we persist for another half a year, it will be done." Wang Xuanchang transmitted the message.

"Okay, it's only half a year, so let's wait a little longer!" Wang Qianli's eyes revealed a firm look, "Even if I give up my magical powers, I will hold on for these six months!"

Behind the border town, teams of monks walked in the air above the sky, secretly going deep into the important spiritual mines, spiritual medicines and even the mountain gates in various places in the Guangyuan Mountains.

These cultivators are all in the late stage of Qi Refining and are extremely powerful. Anyone who is not a true cultivator will inevitably die when encountering them.

At the Wang family's Fire Spirit Mine, a Xiang family cultivator grinned as he tore off the head of the Wang family cultivator guarding the spirit mine. Looking at the abandoned fire aura in the mine, greed flashed in his eyes, but he quickly put away his inappropriate thoughts and said coldly to the disciples behind him: "Let's go to the next spirit mine."

At the location of the Xu clan's land in Qinghe, a spark suddenly fell from the sky above the light curtain of the large formation and hit the light blue curtain heavily, causing cracks to appear immediately.

A cultivator from the Xiang family came over and sneered, "Xu family is so confident that both cultivators are going to the border town to fight. There is no cultivator in the sect, so what if there is a mid-grade spiritual formation?"

After saying that, he stretched out his hands, rolled up a treasure scroll, waved it, and shouted: "Fixed!"

This precious scroll immediately turned into a starlight, drawing in the stars in the sky and fixing the ban on the great formation, leaving a slight flaw.

The Xiang family's true cultivator immediately flashed in and broke into the formation.

The cultivator from the Xu family in the main formation was so horrified when he saw this scene. If a hostile cultivator broke into the mountain protection formation and there were no cultivators left, wouldn’t the entire clan be destroyed?

"I heard that the Xu family is rich in elixirs. If anyone of you can provide me with a precious elixir, I will spare your life."

Xiang Jia Zhen Xiu looked at the crowd, chuckled, raised his finger, and swept across the crowd. Everyone whose finger passed by trembled in their hearts. Finally, he pointed at an old man who looked quite prestigious and continued, "You, tell me."

Although the old man couldn't help but tremble, he still gritted his teeth and said, "Return to true cultivation, I don't know..."

"Bang~"

Before the old man could finish his words, he was blasted apart by a finger from the Xiang family cultivator, and flesh and blood scattered everywhere, covering many people with blood.

"You, come and tell me." The cultivator pointed at another young man with a faint smile on his face, as if he was very friendly. However, the blood and flesh were still on the ground in front of him, and this smile made people even more frightened.

The young man who was pointed at trembled visibly, and said tremblingly: "Reply...Reply to the senior, there is a secret water refining method in the clan that can be used to make foundation-building elixirs. It is...at the Qingyun Waterside Pavilion."

"Very good, go away." Xiang Jia Zhen Xiu pointed at another person and said with a smile: "Come on, everyone else is afraid of me, but you are glaring at me. What's wrong with you?"

The pretty girl who was pointed at said coldly and boldly: "A true cultivator would actually attack a Qi-refining cultivator like me. How shameless!"

"Hahaha, the world has always been like this, the strong prey on the weak, where is the shameless morality?" Xiang Jia Zhenxiu laughed when he heard this.

"You are right." An old voice came, "But you are the weak one this time."

"who!"

The sound frightened Xiang Jia Zhen Xiu so much that his hair stood on end. He scanned the surroundings with his spiritual sense but could not find the source of the sound.

A vast white mist gradually rose in front of him, covering the entire Xu clan's territory, as if it were a dream.

Seeing this, the Xu family members bowed excitedly and said, "Lord River God! Lord River God!"

The Xiang family's true cultivator was shocked and cried out in horror: "The higher-level true cultivator!"

Without thinking, he turned around and soared into the sky, leading the stars in the sky to shine forever.

But this time the old voice came again.

"Now that you are here, there is no need to leave. Do you still want to guide the starlight in my [River Frost Mist]?"

Before he finished speaking, fog rose up from the sky, like an endless flowing river, turning the sky and the earth into frost.

Before the Xiang family cultivator could display his magical powers, he was swept into the dark river by the frosty fog. There were only some splashes on the water before the river slowly returned to calm.

……

At the Qi Lingmen spiritual mine, a group of monks seemed to appear out of nowhere and brazenly attacked the spiritual mine base.

The three guarding deacons in the spiritual mine hurriedly opened the formation and activated the Five Puppets Ring Array. Puppets flashed out one after another, surrounding the city in a magic array, and there were also talismans forming a talisman array, blocking the mine.

The Xiang family cultivators who saw this scene immediately turned around and left. After all, these formations were really troublesome for them. If they could not attack quickly, they would be held back. This was the heartland of the five families, and reinforcements could come at any time.

Seeing that the thief had left, the several deacons guarding the spiritual mine breathed a sigh of relief. Wu Jiao said in fear, "Fortunately, the master had foresight and let us bring the Five Puppet Ring Mysterious Array and the Talisman Array beforehand."

Another deacon echoed, "The headmaster is really resourceful, but should we report this to the mountain gate?"

"Of course we will. I'm afraid that there will be attacks from other places. These cultivators are all vassals of the Xiang family, not Xiang family members. Even if their insidious plot is exposed, they can still say that it has nothing to do with them." Wu Jiao shook his head and said, "Now is a time of trouble. We must not be distracted. We must be careful in future inspections!"

……

In the West City, several true cultivators gathered together, all with solemn expressions. Xu Xinghan was the first to speak: "Fellow Daoists, I'm afraid we can no longer send people to help the West City.

I think everyone has received the message from the family. The Xiang family sent a large number of vassals to raid and destroy the places where our spiritual mines and mountains are produced. If there are not enough people to guard them, I am afraid that the rear will be unstable and affect the front line. "

Xu Wanrong also nodded and said, "Yes, the Xiang family even sent out true cultivators to attack the mountain gate. Everyone must be careful and beware of the mountain gate clan."

Wang Qianli frowned and said, "But most of the disciples in the West City are already injured. If we don't send more people, we won't be able to hold out for long!"

"How about this, for the seventh additional dispatch, my Qi Ling Sect will send out another 200 disciples!" Chen Guan gritted his teeth and said, "But after this time, my Qi Ling Sect will never send out any more disciples!"

"Good! Fellow Daoist, you are so righteous!" Upon hearing that, Fu Kong clapped his hands in approval.

Su Yao looked at Chen Guan with some surprise. In his mind, Chen Guan was a resourceful man and never seemed like a man who could do great things.

He glanced sideways at Zhang Qi again, but he couldn't figure out what these two junior apprentices and nephews were thinking.

"Okay! In that case, each family can send another hundred disciples, and we can provide another five to six hundred reinforcements, which will be enough to hold out for several months!" Wang Qianli said with a slightly relaxed expression.

"But if we keep going like this, what changes will there be? We will just be defeated sooner or later!" Fu Kong said somewhat dejectedly.

"Don't worry, fellow Taoists. My Wang family has sacrificed a lot of our heritage and efforts. As long as we hold on for another half a year, this war may be over!"

Wang Qianli raised the corner of his mouth slightly, looking very confident, which made everyone feel at ease.

There was an inexplicable coldness in Chen Guan's eyes, but he didn't say much.

……

Baiwu Mountain is the outer sect headquarters of Bailing Sect. It is a place specially used by Bailing Sect to house guests from all sides. As the only two top sects in Baiwu Mountain, it naturally has the confidence to recruit independent cultivators from all sides to serve it.

In front of a cave, two late-stage monks were discussing something.

"Brother, Fairy Yue hasn't listened to the imperial edict for a long time. Even if she is in seclusion, she can't stay in seclusion for this long."

The middle-aged man beside her also frowned as he looked at the cave in front of him, "Fairy Yue has a high level of cultivation. I'm afraid she has reached the peak of Qi Refining. She hasn't come out of seclusion for such a long time. It's impossible that she is forcing a breakthrough, right?"

"That's unlikely. The Seven-Colored Spring in my Baiwu Mountain can condense and cleanse the mind, which can increase the chances of breaking through to true cultivation by more than half. Fairy Yue will have the opportunity to enter the pool as long as she works for the sect for another ten years.

It's too risky for her to force a breakthrough like this." The young disciple analyzed, "It can't be that something really happened?"

The two looked at each other. It was a very taboo to forcibly open someone else's cave.

Just as the two were hesitating, a blue light suddenly rose from the cave in front of them, frantically gathering the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within a radius of hundreds of miles.

A huge snake shadow hundreds of feet long emerged from the heavy clouds. The snake moved unsteadily in the mist, and its shape became clearer and clearer. The spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth gathered in its body, and a gradually rising pressure gradually spread out.

In the Bailing Sect, an old Taoist priest jumped out in surprise and stood in mid-air.

There was also a burly man who had arrived earlier in the air. When he saw the old man, he smiled and clasped his fists and said, "Fellow Daoist Qi, this is a guest official of Guishui Dao who is breaking through the true cultivation. It seems that Dao Can is actually Senior Guiyin!
If the senior could come in person, I think this guest official would have a great chance of making a breakthrough."

The old man surnamed Qi smiled and said, "Senior Guiyin is moody, and our ancestor only made a spiritual contract with him and kept him in our sect to look after him.

As for whether or not you are willing to let this casual cultivator borrow your magical powers, it still depends on Senior Guiyin's opinion."

As the two were talking, they suddenly felt a chill on their backs. They straightened their backs and slowly turned around. They saw a feminine man with long hair staring at them with a smile and said, "I heard someone saying bad things about me behind my back."

"Senior, you are joking!" Qi Yuan bowed and said, "How dare we talk about you, Senior?"

This feminine man has a pair of pupils that are equally divided between blue and black on his soft face. His eyes are narrow and long, giving people a weird feeling.

He chuckled and pointed at the old man surnamed Qi, "Qi boy, you don't have the guts to do this. Your master was a great hero back then, so why did he accept a timid disciple like you?"

Qi Yuan didn't dare to answer, and could only smile. The man in front of him was the only upper-level true cultivator in the sect, and also the guardian spirit beast, the Xuangui Spirit Snake, who had lived for at least 1,500 years. In front of him, he was just a kid.

Seeing that the two men were afraid of him, Gui Yin lost interest in them and turned to look at the huge snake shadow deep in the mist, with a faint smile in his eyes: "Interesting, it's rare for someone to take my original body as a Taoist.

If you lose, I'm afraid you'll be laughed at by the other demon generals."

After saying that, he stretched out his hand and pointed, and a green rain began to fall between heaven and earth. The rain turned the entire area for hundreds of miles into green, and gathered on the snake's body. Immediately, the originally blurry figure became clear, and even the scales were so detailed that they were visible to the naked eye.

The hundred-foot-long giant snake raised its head and roared toward the sky. A strange snake name was heard, and immediately the water in all the wells and deep pools around it rippled and rose three feet high out of thin air.

Gui Yin stretched out his wrist with interest, and the huge python came closer to him on its own initiative, rubbing its head against his palm.

"Let this man come to see me someday." Guiyin smiled and looked at the Xuangui Snake for a few seconds. After giving a hint, he turned into a rain curtain and disappeared.

In the cave, Li Xuanyue retracted her magical power, and the Xuangui snake slowly fell back to her body, and she felt relieved. Just now she thought that the magical power she had cultivated with great difficulty was going to be taken away, but she didn't expect that the upper-level true cultivator would return it.

But no matter what, she finally cultivated to the position of true cultivation. Although the process was dangerous and she would most likely fail, fortunately, at the last moment, the superior true cultivator appeared and only borrowed a part of her magical power to become the Guishui true cultivator. She cultivated the magical power [Xuan Gui Chi], which allowed her to know the changes in people's hearts and understand the dangers and sinisterness. It was the poison formed by the combination of water and soil, which even true cultivators would be afraid of.

Li Xuanyue took back the Xuangui snake. There was a pool of water in the spiritual platform. The upper layer was green and blue, and the lower layer was dark and deep. There was a snake swimming in the water.

This snake is neither an illusion nor a monster, but a bit of Xuangui essence bred from the combination of her magical powers and Taoism, which has transformed into a perfect body. This gives her relatively weak magical powers some support.

Magical powers are not all used in combat, and mental powers are not necessarily weaker in combat. As long as one's cultivation is high, the strength of the magical powers will not have an impact.

The magic and mind skills are just different in their uses. However, my own magic is the ancient way of seeking truth, which is more in line with the image of Guishui, and is two points higher than other cultivators in terms of Taoism.

But now that she has become a true cultivator, she cannot return to the mountain gate yet, because she has other requests.

 I have been feeling a little unwell the past two days. I will resume my normal two updates tomorrow.
