Dao Cheng Gui Xian

Chapter 465 I rule the heavens, and all spirits bow before me!
Zhongtianguan, Conference Hall.

Jin Peng and Luan Xuan sat at the head of the table, one on each side, while Nightingale stood nervously at the foot of the table.

As soon as Elder Zuo announced the punishment, everyone's eyes were immediately drawn to her. Knowing that she couldn't escape it, she immediately bowed and admitted her mistake.

He thought he would inevitably be punished, but unexpectedly, the Grand Master of Luanxuan stepped forward to plead for him.

It is said that he also failed to protect the crow, which led to the crow's death in battle.

Everyone had actually anticipated Wu Jiu's death, since Ma Feng and Sha Xiu had said that Wu Jiu was surrounded and that the Grand Master had been delayed in returning to save him.

However, although the Grand Master failed to save Wujiu, he did kill the Earth Spirit Temple Master.

Nightingale's situation was different from Luanxuan's; she was leading the team and was surrounded.

While it may not all be her fault, Elder Zuo has no excuse for pursuing Nightingale's case.

However, the fact that Master Luan was so trustworthy still left everyone, including Nightingale, deeply moved.

Jin Peng seemed somewhat dissatisfied with Luan Xuan's plea!
However, due to Luanxuan's insistence, Jinpeng made an unprecedented compromise, dismissing everyone at the dojo, but ordering Nightingale to stay in the conference hall to give a detailed account of the battle, and to decide on another day.

That's why we have this scene now.

Looking down at the nightingale, Jinpeng's mind sank into the divine palace.

Li Wushou asked Jin Peng:

Are you sure Zhu Liuli isn't inside Zhongtian Pass right now?

Jin Peng's expression was solemn as he replied earnestly:
"Second Master, rest assured, I attained enlightenment at Zhongtian Pass and wielded the Black Feather of the Sparrow Venerable. To me, Zhongtian Pass is like another realm outside the Divine Palace."

After Princess Liuli took the Ninth Prince away, she left Zhongtian Pass and went to the rear.

They only said they would return in half a month, which is eight or nine days from now.

Upon hearing this, Li Wushou nodded thoughtfully; he indeed had not found any trace of Zhu Liuli.

And Zhu Liuli did indeed go to the hinterland behind Zhongtian Pass.

This coincided with what he had previously thought.

As for the talisman masters, the troops from Luofu City just set off yesterday and have probably just rounded Sparrow God Mountain.

It will take about two more days before they are completely dispersed, so there's no rush at the moment.

However, since Zhu Liuli is not here, there is nothing he needs to fear in Zhongtian Pass at this moment.

The entire Zhongtian Pass can be said to be under our control!
He could also select some promising individuals and bring them under his control.

Let's start with the nightingale!

A thought struck him, and Luan Xuan suddenly stood up and sighed:
"Nightingale, you are too careless."

The already anxious nightingale showed a guilty expression on her face.

She might have argued with others if they had said this, but she took Luanxuan's words to heart.

Before she could reply, Luanxuan got off his seat, grabbed Nightingale's hand, and walked out.

As they walked, he said to Jinpeng:

"Elder Zuo, Nightingale and I will return to our cave first to discuss tactics and precautions for dealing with the Central Region. Please calm down first."

Having said that, he transmitted his voice to the still-dazed Nightingale:

"What are you waiting for? Let's go!"

Nightingale was taken aback. She glanced apologetically at Jinpeng, and then followed Luanxuan toward his cave.

This scene astonished all the Nascent Soul cultivators who were focused on the aftermath of Nightingale's punishment.

Several people even exclaimed in astonishment:

"Could it be that the Grand Master has taken a liking to Fellow Daoist Nightingale?"

"Both of them are from Sparrow God Mountain, so it's quite possible!"

"."

The people were speaking in secret, so Nightingale and Luanxuan naturally couldn't hear them.
But the nightingales, without prior agreement, shared the same thought as these people.

Looking at Luanxuan's broad back and recalling how he had stepped forward just now, Nightingale was also somewhat dazed.

She has devoted herself to spiritual practice all these years and has never been distracted by anything else.

If it's true that the Grand Master of Luanxuan...
It doesn't seem to work?
For some reason, the nightingale felt a sense of anticipation!
Luan Xuan, striding forward, was unaware of Nightingale's thoughts; otherwise, even if his mind were controlled by Li Wushou, he would probably be speechless.

He was merely following the Second Master's orders to bring Nightingale back to the heavily guarded cave so that he could control her!

Five days have passed in a flash!

In the past few days, Zhongtian Pass has been quite peaceful, and no further clashes have been launched with the Central Region.

But every day, the Nascent Soul cultivators and even True Lords of Zhongtian Pass harbored a glimmer of hope.

Since Nightingale entered the cave of Grand Master Luan seven days ago and immediately went into seclusion, she claimed that her cultivation had improved somewhat. From then on, every day, Grand Master Luan would summon people to his cave under the pretext of discussing the Dao.

It was said to be a discussion of the Way, but everyone knew it was actually a form of guidance.

Because everyone who came out of the cave praised it highly!
Without exception, after these people came out, their spiritual and physical bodies made visible progress in a short period of time!
This made everyone envious, hoping that one day they could also enter the cave of the Great Master Luan and receive guidance.

Unfortunately, the people summoned by the Grand Master were all outstanding individuals.

Today, it is said that the Grand Master wants to test the results of those who have previously given guidance, so he summoned Nightingale and other powerful figures to the cave early on.

The group had intended to approach and eavesdrop, but Elder Zuo turned them away.

Only then did everyone realize that even Elder Zuo had gotten involved today!
Helpless, he could only stay in his cave and worry anxiously.

Their divine senses couldn't even reach within ten miles of the Luanzhangzuo Cave!
Inside the Luanxuan Cave.

The Tree Goddess transformed into a grayish-white tree of the Five Elements, devouring the golden spiritual energy and the dragon's resentment and evil energy.

Li Wushou's primordial spirit, physical body, and formless golden elixir-transformed form sat in a triangular formation under the Five Elements Tree.

Nine people were evenly seated around him. Besides Jin Peng, Luan Xuan, Ma Feng, and Ye Ying, who were all at the Spirit Sealing and Deity Transformation stage, there were five others he had chosen to do so.

One late-game specialist, two mid-game specialists, and three early-game specialists!
As for the others, it wasn't that Li Wushou didn't want to control them, but the old beggar warned him that as he controlled more and more people, the possibility of his spirit tablet being exposed would also increase!
If someone were to reverse the cause and effect, Li Wushou's memorial tablet might be exposed.

Then the Three Immortals Pavilion could no longer be hidden!
This admonition, like a resounding bell, jolted Li Wushou awake.

He had always thought that the human skin-controlled talisman was invincible, but he never expected it to have such a drawback.
It seems that as the number of people increases, the old beggar is also feeling the pressure!

Li Wushou needs to be more cautious about using the human skin-controlled talisman.

Therefore, after careful selection, Li Wushou chose these five Nascent Soul cultivators.

By controlling these spirit-sealing Dao-transforming deities, Li Wushou also discovered a common point among these people: their spirits also needed cultivation.

There are two ways to cultivate the spirit. One is the method of the divine way, which uses incense to refine the spirit.

This will enhance the power of the spirit, just like the Black Sparrow God of Jiangbei Pass empowered Luanxuan!
Another method is the Immortal Daoist Primordial Spirit Method, which involves refining the spirit through cultivating the power of the primordial spirit.

This is because the spirit of the Fengling Dao has long since merged with the spirit.

This method is usually the orthodox method!
Because in the Sealed Spirit Path, there is a distinction between primary and secondary roles for humans and spirits.

No one wants the spirit to be primary and themselves secondary, to the point of complete loss of self.

If one cultivates solely through the divine path, it won't be long before the spirit suppresses its true nature.

However, these people would always prepare incense and gold beads, and in times of crisis, they would swallow them to stimulate their spirits.

For them, incense and gold beads are like a secret medicine to unleash their potential!

Upon learning this, Li Wushou immediately recalled his primordial spirit, which was exploring, from the heartland behind Zhongtian Pass.

Last night, under Jin Peng's cover, they secretly sneaked back to Zhongtian Pass.

Since he can worship the gods and refine his soul in the twelve continents of the outer sea, wouldn't the Sealing Spirit Dao, which already contains the power of incense, be able to transform into a divine spirit body, along with the incense and gold beads they prepared themselves, do the same?
The quality of these spirits is even several times higher than that of the twelve continental gods!
However, Li Wushou could not fully absorb the spiritual energy, otherwise these spiritual bodies would be too weak and would shatter at the slightest touch during the battle, which would also affect the overall situation.

But this doesn't prevent Li Wushou from undergoing a spirit refinement first!
He had accumulated a portion of the Dharma Realm's resources, but due to his limited primordial spirit realm, he was unable to fully refine them.

However, Zhu Liuli's primordial spirit, the Sparrow Incense, cannot be touched at this moment, so this is the only option!

In the heart of Zhongtian Pass, although his primordial spirit could not pinpoint Zhu Liuli's movements, it did make one thing clear.

That means Zhu Liuli was indeed spreading the primordial spirit sparrow with all her might.

This shows that Zhu Liuli's Sky Sparrow is indeed different; the opponent is able to divide so many primordial spirit sparrows.

This is undoubtedly related to the Mahjong Master!

The target of the enemy is not outside Zhongtian Pass at all, but the entire Fengling Dao territory!
The madness and ruthlessness of the Sparrow Lord made Li Wushou feel extremely anxious.

Li Wushou finally understood why the old beggar wanted 50% of the incense offerings from Zhu Liuli's primordial spirit, Zique.

When Li Wushou revealed his thoughts, the old beggar smiled but remained silent.

Li Wushou had no intention of cheating; he simply adopted a nonchalant attitude and discussed the matter of refining the spirit with the old beggar.

The old beggar was filled with resentment. He knew that the stronger Li Wushou was, the more incense offerings Zhu Liuli would receive.

But he was still very unhappy. Even though he had won, he still felt like he had lost.

After a tug-of-war between the two, Li Wushou agreed to go all out to take down the Blood Buddha and give up half a percent of the benefits, which led to this early Spirit Refining.

Without making a sound, he exchanged a glance with the old beggar lying on the tree branch, and the old beggar nodded slightly.

Li Wushou composed himself and looked at the nine Spirit Sealing Transformation Gods surrounding him.

The nine individuals' spirit bodies floated above their heads, with incense sticks and golden beads arranged in front of them, clearly indicating that they were all ready!

With a slight nod, Li Wushou's expression suddenly became solemn and dignified.

Looking around at the Nine Spirits, the three bodies simultaneously shouted:
"All spirits worship me!"
