He cultivated himself into a Dao Ancestor starting from Qi Refining.

Lin Shaoyu was moved from his original location and transformed into a substitute puppet, while his original self had long since escaped the "Execution Array." The substitute puppet was shattered by the power of the Execution Array.

"A scapegoat! Damn it!"

Ye Shuanghua was stunned for a moment, her face turning quite grim. "This supernatural power is so bizarre! Any supernatural power and its effects can be transferred, and it can even be absorbed by the 'substitute puppet'!"

"In this way, each 'substitute puppet' is equivalent to a life."

"this……"

Thinking of this, Ye Shuanghua's expression changed slightly. She finally understood why her junior brother Lu, who was clearly a great supernatural being, had died at the hands of this demon. It was because the supernatural power of this "substitute" was too unreasonable.

To know.

Although Ye Shuanghua's guardian deities can also transfer the effects of supernatural powers and allow the guardian deities to take the burden, they cannot do what a substitute can do. There is still a certain gap, and they cannot truly substitute for someone else's life.

The advantage of a guardian deity over a substitute is that even if a guardian deity is destroyed, it can be condensed with true qi immediately, while a substitute puppet must be made in advance with time and materials.

If all ninety-nine substitute puppets are used up during the battle, there is no way to replenish them, and the enemy will not give you time to make new substitute puppets.

Meanwhile, each of the guardian deities possesses extremely strong combat power, but the substitute puppet does not.

"Junior Sister!"

brush!

Ling Qingxiao finally arrived at this moment.

"Senior brother."

Ye Shuanghua's face lit up with joy, and she shouted in a sweet voice, "Quickly, join forces with me to kill this demon! He's the one who killed Junior Brother Lu!"

"Um?!"

Ling Qingxiao was stunned for a moment, then looked at Lin Shaoyu, "That devil is still here!"

"Okay, okay!"

Immediately, Ling Qingxiao's face lit up with joy. "I thought that this demon had already returned to the sect, and there was no hope of avenging Junior Brother Lu. I didn't expect him to still be here."

"Twelve levels of Qi Refining".

Lin Shaoyu's expression was also solemn, because he was about to fight two opponents, and Ling Qingxiao's cultivation was no lower than his own, and he had also mastered four minor supernatural abilities.

Without hesitation, Lin Shaoyu's mind moved, and he communicated with the He Shi Bi, using his ability to see into fate. He consumed ten white life essences and directly saw into Ling Qingxiao's past.

As all of Ling Qingxiao's past scenes appeared before Lin Shaoyu, Lin Shaoyu gained a general understanding of Ling Qingxiao and also learned about the four minor supernatural abilities that Ling Qingxiao possessed.

They are: Immortal Light Technique, Samadhi True Fire, Minor Heavenly Secret Technique, and Minor Five Elements Sword Formation.

"Wait a moment."

Ling Qingxiao was about to make a move, but stopped as if possessed. He looked Lin Shaoyu up and down, then turned to Ye Shuanghua with a serious expression and asked, "Junior Sister, are you sure he's that demon?"

"There's no mistake, and he admitted it himself."

Ye Shuanghua quickly replied, saying, "This person has also cultivated into a 'Substitute Person,' and together with that Iron Rooster, their supernatural abilities are the same. There's absolutely no mistake."

"However, he has now mastered a transformation technique, which has changed his appearance and aura. Although your Little Heavenly Secret Technique is ineffective, my Heavenly Eye Technique can directly see through illusions."

"And he... he also mastered a karmic... karmic fire supernatural power..."

The more Ye Shuanghua spoke, the more solemn her expression became, and her tone changed. It was at this moment that she gradually understood something.

"Junior sister, it seems you've thought of that too..."

Ling Qingxiao took a deep breath, his expression extremely solemn. He slowly said, "When this demon was in Black Stone City, he was only at the sixth level of Qi Refining. How long has it been? Only half a month. He has already reached the twelfth level of Qi Refining and has also mastered two other minor supernatural abilities."

"!!!"

Ye Shuanghua's beautiful eyes narrowed. She now fully understood. At first, she realized that Lin Shaoyu was too excited and had overlooked these things. But now that Ling Qingxiao had pointed it out, she couldn't help but widen her eyes, and a chill ran down her spine.

"You...you..."

Ye Shuanghua couldn't help but take a half step back, staring at Lin Shaoyu in horror.

Perhaps this is why the more you know, the more afraid you become.

"oh."

Lin Shaoyu's heart stirred slightly. He sensed that Ye Shuanghua and Ling Qingxiao had clearly misunderstood something, but his expression remained calm, and his outward appearance showed no change.

"Who are you?!"

Ling Qingxiao tried to calm himself down as much as possible, staring intently at Lin Shaoyu. "Half a month! In just half a month! You've mastered two divine abilities of the Blood Demon Body Refining Sect, and your cultivation has directly broken through to the twelfth level of Qi Refining!"

"besides."

"My minor celestial secrets technique is completely ineffective against you. Even if I use other methods to avoid the obstacles of the substitute, the celestial secrets are still obscured, and I can only see a fog. I cannot see any information about you at all."

"This is too bizarre; this shouldn't be something that a minor supernatural being could do."

"you……"

"interesting."

Lin Shaoyu's lips curled up slightly. He stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at Ling Qingxiao and Ye Shuanghua, and said in a light tone, "Ling Qingxiao, you are quite clever."

"You know my name."

Ling Qingxiao was taken aback. He and Lin Shaoyu didn't actually have much interaction, and Ling Qingxiao used an alias when speaking to others, never using his real name.

"I not only know your name, but I also know everything about your past."

With his hands behind his back, Lin Shaoyu exuded an even more superior aura. "You have no secrets whatsoever in my eyes."

"impossible!"

Ling Qingxiao shouted.

"hehe……"

Lin Shaoyu simply smiled faintly and casually mentioned that Ling Qingxiao had entered a secret realm thirty years ago and obtained an opportunity, which allowed him to make rapid progress and successively master four minor supernatural abilities, reaching the twelfth level of Qi Refining.

But that opportunity had run its course, and Ling Qingxiao could not go any further. His background and origins could only allow him to reach this level.

"How did you know!"

Ling Qingxiao was shocked again. This was his biggest secret, and there was no way anyone else could know it except him. "You...you..."

"hiss……"

Ye Shuanghua was equally horrified and gasped. She clenched her fists, her expression constantly changing. If it weren't for the self-mutilation technique, she would have already wanted to retreat.

The more Ye Shuanghua thought about it, the more alarmed she became. She felt that the demon in front of her was probably of an astonishingly powerful background, possibly the reincarnation of a great supernatural being. If she were even bolder, he might even be the reincarnation of an unparalleled supernatural being.

Normally, to master a supernatural power, even a minor one, would take several years or even decades. Only those who are reincarnations of supernatural powers, after retrieving the legacy of their previous lives, do not need to cultivate at all and can directly inherit the supernatural powers of their past lives. Only in this way can we explain why Lin Shaoyu was able to directly master a supernatural power in a short period of time.

Just like Lin Shaoyu, who mastered two supernatural abilities in just half a month and advanced from the sixth level of Qi Refining to the twelfth level of Qi Refining, only reincarnated supernatural beings could accomplish this.

"Ye Shuanghua, Ling Qingxiao, you're after the self-mutilation technique on Lu Jinghong, aren't you?"

Lin Shaoyu continued calmly.

"Senior, you..."

Ye Shuanghua was stunned for a moment, not expecting that the other party also knew her name.

"The self-severing method is incomplete, it is only a part, and it is related to the great secret of foundation building. Only when the remaining parts are gathered, namely the 'refining spirit method' and the 'reincarnation method', can it be considered truly complete."

Lin Shaoyu continued, "Even if you get it now, it won't mean much."

In fact, Lin Shaoyu only learned about the "Refining Spirit Method" and the "Reincarnation Method" after he peeked into Ye Shuanghua and Ling Qingxiao's memories.

"The cycle of rebirth?"

Ye Shuanghua was taken aback, her expression somewhat surprised. "Senior, what is the Reincarnation Method?"

Clearly, Ye Shuanghua only knew about the "Self-Severing Method" and the "Refining Spirit Method," but she did not know about the "Reincarnation Method." Ling Qingxiao knew about the existence of the "Reincarnation Method" because he had obtained an opportunity thirty years ago.
