Who taught him to practice swordsmanship like this?

Chapter 171 Preparing for the Grand Competition

Although he had successfully cultivated the "Taiyin Yuanzun True Scripture," Su Baichen was filled with worry.

He felt that those without form might have better ways to become stronger than ordinary people, especially since they could obtain methods that were extremely suitable for their cultivation from some major sects.

With such deep concern, he can only cultivate while racking his brains to devise a countermeasure.

As for his current cultivation level—well, it's actually starting to deviate from the usual cultivation path.

His current realm should be considered the opening of the spiritual aperture in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul realm, but in reality, the integration of his spirit and energy is far from perfected. Yet, he has already achieved the Yuanzun realm and possesses some characteristics of the Yang God.

In short, he's still in the Nascent Soul stage.

As for the later Void Returning Realm, Su Baichen could only refer to the three major realms; he would have to figure out the rest himself.

He's gotten quite used to this state of being now; as for cultivation and such—he always feels like things will work themselves out in the end.

As time went by, he hardly ever left his room, except for leaving a soul-gold clone outside.

The Dao of Yuanzun is rapidly strengthening his primordial spirit. The ethereal essence of the moon is seeping into his primordial spirit, simultaneously drawing away the impurities within it, thus purifying his primordial spirit.

At the same time, under the suppression of the Five Mountains Sword Qi in his chest, his speed of converting spiritual energy was extremely fast, and his cultivation level also rose accordingly.

It was under these circumstances that he had a sudden thought and stopped cultivating.

On the Soul Gold Avatar's side, True Person Xuan Yin said, "That's enough, we should go to Changchun Palace now."

Upon hearing this, Su Baichen immediately perked up and emerged from seclusion.

Su Xiangxiang quickly moved closer to his feet, rubbing her head and neck against his ankle.

You smell even better now.

It prefers Su Baichen's scent now.

There was no way around it; before, Su Baichen only possessed death energy, but now he not only possessed death energy, but also the Taiyin power he had gained after achieving the Yuanzun realm.

Besides liking to eat death energy, the ghost fox also loves the essence of the moon and the moon—it can be said that Su Baichen is perfectly suited to its taste buds.

Perhaps it wasn't just Su Xiangxiang; other ghosts and foxes might also succumb to this temptation—he was someone who could arouse the "physiological attraction" of all ghosts and foxes.

He came before the Mysterious Yin Immortal.

"Master, I am ready."

Xuan Yin Zhenren was taken aback. He was used to being with the Soul Gold clone, but he did not expect that seeing Su Baichen's real body again after many days would feel so unfamiliar!

At this moment, Su Baichen was wearing an ordinary black Yin Sect Daoist robe, but it gave him a feeling of "nightfall".

His skin was as white as snow, and when paired with his clothes, he resembled the bright moon in the night.

His temperament also changed, becoming as aloof as the moon, with an added touch of ethereal beauty, but less human warmth.

"Bai Chen, what are you doing—"

Xuan Yin Zhenren looked at Su Baichen in disbelief.

Shuiyin Ji was also extremely surprised, even asking, "Bai Chen, why are you so fair-skinned?"

Okay, this question is a bit out of place in the current context.

But they all meant roughly the same thing: why did he change like this?

Su Baichen calmly said, "This may be because I successfully mastered the 'Taiyin Yuanzun True Scripture' and replaced the Xuan Yin spiritual energy in my body with Taiyin moonlight."

Xuan Yin Zhenren and Shui Yin Ji were both stunned.

Good heavens, the "Taiyin Yuanzun True Scripture" that no one has been able to cultivate for so many years has been successfully cultivated by Su Baichen just like that?

"No, if you're talking about mastering it, then you need to master the Yuan Venerable realm first. Your Yuan Venerable realm—"

Before Xuan Yin Zhenren could finish speaking, a silvery light shone from between Su Baichen's eyebrows.

This is similar to the radiance between Yang Shen Zhenren's eyebrows, except that Yang Shen's radiance is gold, while Yuan Zun's is silver.

"Master, I am not yet able to perform the Yuanzun astral projection, so this is the only way I can demonstrate it."

Master Xuan Yin took a deep breath and said, "That's enough, that's enough—"

"Sigh, I never thought you'd actually mastered this technique!"

"Unfortunately, the sect originally had many secret techniques that complemented Yuan Zun, but most of them have been lost over time—"

Su Baichen said, "It's alright. After I achieved the Yuanzun cultivation, I already had a sense of it. If I need any secret techniques, I can just find them in the moonlight."

Master Xuan Yin couldn't help but sigh, only someone with Su Baichen's talent would have the confidence to say such things.

He said, "In that sense, you are the true disciple who has received the Yin Sect's true teachings—unfortunately, it cannot be replicated."

Su Baichen is an exception, a fact he knew long ago.

Su Baichen could only remain silent, because when he learned that the moonlight entering the primordial spirit would simultaneously cause freezing and regression, he knew that this kind of test was not something that cultivators of later generations could withstand.

Perhaps only those from the ancient and primordial times, when their souls had not yet undergone many reincarnations since the beginning of time, had the opportunity to pass this test.

Compared to this kind of retrospection, the illusory phenomena of heaven and earth that arise when the spirits unite are insignificant.

Anyway, Su Baichen didn't feel much during the union of their spiritual powers.

Master Xuan Yin stroked his beard and pondered for a moment before saying, "In any case, this is good news."

"It's perfect timing to go to Changchun Palace to meet up with your master. I'm sure he'll be overjoyed to see what you've accomplished."

Su Baichen smiled modestly, then asked, "What about Gouwa and Erya? We can't just leave them in Yinfeng Gorge, can we?"

Master Xuanyin said, "The two of them will be left in Changchun Palace, together with all the younger disciples whose cultivation is insufficient, in the protective formation of Changchun Palace."

Su Baichen's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this, and he asked, "Is this just in case?"

Master Xuan Yin nodded: "If someone launches a sneak attack while we are all away from Changchun Palace, the disciples left behind in Yin Sect will likely be in trouble."

"Since we are preparing for a major operation, we must be prepared for the worst."

Su Baichen nodded in agreement, emphasizing that the continuation of a sect requires utmost caution.

Therefore, all the disciples of the Yin Sect were gathered at the training ground outside Yin Feng Gorge, leaving none behind.

They watched as the sect's protective formation slowly rose, and then, led by the sect leader and elders, they all embarked on their journey to Changchun Palace.

Because there were too many young disciples who couldn't fly, the sect elders couldn't bring so many people at once. So the Yin Sect elders used an unimaginable magic weapon: the Flood Flag!

The Mysterious Yin Immortal personally controlled this magical artifact, unfurling the black banner and gently waving it—

The next moment, a large amount of seawater was pumped out from under the Yinfeng Gorge.

"Stop."

Mizukage shouted.

Some people realized what was happening, while others did not.

But the next moment, everyone was swept up by this torrent.

The flood flag was waved again.

The torrent carried everyone away, disappearing from the spot.

Good guy!

They actually used this method to escape with everyone through water!

Although the method was rather simple and crude, it achieved the desired effect.
