Chapter 907 Complete Solution
Zhou Lingchuan is a sword cultivator, so he also cultivates his body. His physical strength is already stronger than that of ordinary cultivators. In addition, with the guidance of his master, who is the sect leader, he also has better access to body cultivation resources. This is why he was able to persevere when his soul left his body.

This also illustrates the difference between disciples who have taken a master and those who do not. Therefore, even though Yunxi only accepted nominal disciples, these ten people became the object of envy and jealousy among the sect's disciples.

Yunxi withdrew the purple smoke, and still not entirely at ease, probed into the strands of divine sense again to check, confirming that there were no other divine souls in Zhou Lingchuan's body. Only then did she make a hand seal to send Zhou Lingchuan back into his physical body from the Soul-Gathering Mirror.

The moment Zhou Lingchuan's soul returned to its place, he felt pain screaming all over his body. He examined his meridians and dantian with his divine sense and found that his meridians had widened and his dantian had also grown larger. In the next breath, metal-type spiritual power rushed towards him.

Upon seeing that his second disciple was about to break through, Yu Geng gathered his men, cupped his hands in greeting to Yun Xi, and first escorted Zhou Lingchuan back to his own peak.

After the master and disciple left, Haohui finally spoke:

"Ranxi, what are your plans regarding Sheng Yuhong's soul?"

Yunxi rubbed the black storage bracelet on her wrist and said:
"Sheng Yuhong is, after all, Yu Geng's personal disciple. Yu Geng and my master are from the same sect. Even if we don't care about the monk, we can't just watch his soul dissipate. I will send him to the underworld to enter the cycle of reincarnation. As for whether he can step onto the path of immortality in his next life, that's not something I can decide."

Haohui nodded after listening and said:

“This is a good way to handle it. Although this matter was orchestrated by an evil cultivator, Sheng Yuhong was still too reckless. He should have at least consulted with Zhou Lingchuan, or at the very least verified it with you. Even Zhou Lingchuan could see that there was a problem, so why didn’t Sheng Yuhong notice?”

Yunxi smiled noncommittally and said:
"Sheng Yuhong is probably just pretending not to notice."

Haohui frowned and said:

What is he trying to do?

Yunxi simply shook her head, not wanting to say anything more.

There was only a tragic fate between the two of them. As for the affection mentioned by that fragment of her soul, she felt that it was more like Sheng Yuhong's jealousy. He was jealous that she had surpassed him, jealous that she had gotten to where she was today, and he regretted that he had bet on the wrong person and regretted that he hadn't been able to gain any advantage from her.

Sheng Yuhong was not Haohui's disciple, and Haohui knew little about him. Just as he was about to ask further questions, Yu Geng had already returned to the main hall and bowed to Yunxi, saying:

"Thank you for your help, True Venerable Ranxi. Ling Chuan has turned misfortune into blessing this time, and his cultivation is about to break through again. I have already instructed him to go into seclusion to break through. As for Sheng Yuhong's soul, I wonder what True Venerable intends to do with it?"

Yunxi took out the Soul-Gathering Mirror that had been holding Sheng Yuhong's soul, and said before releasing Sheng Yuhong:

"Yu Geng, I want to contact some old friends in the underworld to send Sheng Yuhong into reincarnation. What do you think?"

Yu Geng breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. At least his disciple's soul wouldn't dissipate, and he still had a chance to reincarnate. For a cultivator, this was already a kind of rebirth, much better than simply vanishing into nothingness. He nodded and said:

"Thank you for your help, True Venerable Ranxi."

Seeing that Yu Geng was not resistant, Yun Xi made a hand seal to open the Soul-Gathering Mirror, allowing Sheng Yuhong's soul to appear in front of the three of them.

After recognizing the three people in front of him, Sheng Yuhong immediately rushed towards Yu Geng and said:
"Master, save me! I've been deceived."

Yu Geng raised his hand to comfort her:
"Don't worry, we all know that you were used by the evil cultivator, and your physical body was parasitized by an evil spirit. In order to seriously injure us, the other party manipulated your physical body to self-destruct. Your physical body was severely damaged and tainted by evil energy, and it is beyond repair. Therefore, you do not have a physical body to live in for the time being."

Yu Geng didn't reveal the full truth about Sheng Yuhong's destroyed physical body, because he understood his disciple and didn't want to create unnecessary complications. Sheng Yuhong's expression changed, and he said:

"What? My physical body is destroyed? What should I do? This is not my fault, please, Master, save me."

Yu Geng looked at Sheng Yuhong, whose mind was somewhat unstable, and waved his hand reassuringly, saying:
"Don't worry, True Venerable Ranxi has promised to use the connections in the Underworld to send you into reincarnation. You just need to be reborn and start cultivating again. This is the best option for you."

Sheng Yuhong froze on the spot, then turned to look at Yun Xi at the head of the table, seemingly wanting to get confirmation from her.

Yunxi said calmly:
"The oath you made to Heaven has come true, so sending you into reincarnation is the only option. Otherwise, you can only return to the world. What do you choose?"

Sheng Yuhong was stunned for a long time before lowering his eyes and asking:

"Is it possible to retain the memories of this life?"

A dark glint flashed in Yunxi's eyes, and she shook her head, saying:
"I cannot make this decision myself; I can only ask Meng Po in the underworld."

Despite his reluctance, Sheng Yuhong finally bid farewell to his master, Yu Geng, and re-entered the Soul-Gathering Mirror. He knew which choice would be more beneficial to him.

The moment Sheng Yuhong entered the Soul-Gathering Mirror and fell into a deep sleep, Yunxi used her powerful divine sense to erase all his memories. Now, Sheng Yuhong is just an ordinary soul waiting to enter reincarnation.

Soon after, Yunxi contacted "Ox-Head and Horse-Face" through a chat group and successfully sent the Soul-Gathering Mirror that imprisoned Sheng Yuhong into the Underworld. After that, Yunxi put Sheng Yuhong out of her mind and continued to fight the wisp of soul lightning in the Nascent Soul.

During a casual chat with a fellow member of a chat group, she learned from "Ox-Head and Horse-Face" that Sheng Yuhong had been reincarnated into the animal realm and reborn into a small world without spiritual power, destined to be deprived of the path to immortality. Yunxi was very satisfied with this outcome.

At this moment, Yunxi sealed the soul crystal she had obtained from Zhou Lingchuan, and then sent a message talisman to Mingyou Zhenzun, inviting him to come to Haoran Sect to see the soul crystal.

She suspected that there was a wisp of the evil god's soul in this soul crystal, otherwise the divided soul that came down from the divine realm would not have guarded this soul crystal, and even wanted to use it to kill someone, trying to provoke a conflict between the Haoran Sect and the Lei family. It was clear that he had no good intentions.

The reply from the True Venerable Mingyou was swift. Because the Ghost Realm still needed him to oversee some matters, he sent True Venerable Canglou from Xiaoyao Valley to Haoran Sect. The main reason was that Canglou and Ranxi were old acquaintances, making communication easier. Canglou was a veteran Mahayana True Venerable, fully capable of representing the Ghost Realm.

Three days later, Zanglou Zhenzun tore through the void and arrived at the gate of Haoran Sect. Yunxi sensed it immediately and flashed away from Lingxue Peak to greet him.

Yunxi smiled and cupped her hands in greeting:
"Venerable Zanglou, it's been a long time. I hope you've been well."

This time, Canglou wore a dark purple robe with subtle patterns, held a staff in his hand, and smiled broadly across his deeply lined face:

"It's only been ten years since we parted ways on the ancient battlefield. I never expected that Fellow Daoist Ranxi has already advanced to the late Mahayana stage. It's truly a cause for celebration. We can't deny that we're getting old."

Yunxi made a "please" gesture and replied with a smile:

"This breakthrough was truly perilous, but we were lucky to have successfully retrieved the immortal bones and accumulated some merit, which enabled us to break through smoothly. We apologize for the futility of our efforts, Senior Canglou. How is Cang Feng doing?"

In high spirits, Canglou followed Yunxi to the top of Lingxue Peak. The two of them appeared in the main hall at the summit in a flash. When Yunxi mentioned her most promising junior, Canglou's smile became more genuine.
