Mortal: Copying the entry, reborn as Linghu Patriarch

Chapter 242 The Annual Selection of Holy Island, Linghu Qing is Captured

Master Lei Luo raised his eyes to look at Linghu Qing in front of him, and asked a question in a calm tone.

Do you know of the Human Race's Holy Island?

"Holy Island?"

A perfectly timed look of bewilderment flashed across Linghu Qing's eyes, his expression one of confusion.

He knew everything about Santorini perfectly well.

But given his position, he shouldn't know this at this moment.

Master Lei Luo spoke slowly.

"After your ascension, did you feel that the human and demon races were far too weak to withstand the invasion of alien races?"

You're right.

"The human race has three emperors, and the demon race has seven demon kings. At most, there are only ten powerful beings at the Fusion Stage."

"Including the eleven Nascent Soul cultivators guarding Tianyuan Town, plus the scattered Nascent Soul cultivators in the world, the total number is just over twenty."

With such strength, one could at most hold off one of the surrounding alien races.

It was simply not enough to resist the successive invasions of the Wood Clan, Shadow Clan, and even the Spirit Clan and Yaksha Clan.

"The reason why the human and demon races have been able to survive to this day and steadily guard the human race's territory in the spirit realm is that the two races share a sacred place—the Sacred Island."

"Holy Island!"

Linghu Qing slightly opened his eyes, feigning surprise, and a look of shock just happened to appear in his eyes.

"Our human race's Mahayana senior Mo Jianli and the demon race's Mahayana senior Ao Xiao are both stationed on the Holy Island."

"Every thousand years, the Holy Island selects the most outstanding elites from the younger generation of both the human and demon races to come to the island for cultivation."

"If we don't know how many thousands of years have passed, I estimate that there are at least thirty or more powerful cultivators at the Integration stage practicing on this island."

"This is the true strength of my human race."

Master Lei Luo's voice carried a hint of awe.

Linghu Qing asked in surprise, "Does Master mean that I should go to the Holy Island to cultivate?"

"That's right."

Master Lei Luo nodded emphatically, his eyes full of praise and appreciation.

"Your talent for cultivation is unparalleled in my lifetime."

"Even the fastest cultivator I've ever heard of, Senior Ao Xiao, a demon race Mahayana cultivator with the top-tier Seven Star Moon Body, is far slower than you."

"How long has it been since the last selection of disciples for Holy Island?"

"912."

Master Lei Luo spoke in a deep voice.

"I can report your talent to the Holy Island and see if we can recruit you to the island ahead of schedule."

"If that doesn't work, you can still land on the island eighty years from now; with your talent, that's for sure."

"Thank you for your guidance and kindness."

Linghu Qing bowed slightly and thanked him sincerely.

However, he remained completely unmoved.

century.

At his cultivation speed, he will reach the Void Refinement stage in another ten or twenty years.

Based on this calculation, it will take him no more than thirty years to break through from the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm to the Void Refinement realm.

At this speed, even the human race's sacred island would probably find it hard to remain calm.

Master Lei Luo picked up a cup of water and sprinkled in a few red tea leaves.

"This is the Tea of ​​Enlightenment."

"Drink this; it will be beneficial to your subsequent understanding."

"Thank you, Master."

Linghu Qing took the Enlightenment Tea and drank it in one gulp.

In the days that followed, Master Lei Luo imparted all his knowledge to him.

Cultivation details, overcoming difficulties, heavenly tribulations and taboos, spiritual energy conversion...

From the physical foundation to the transformation of the soul, from the control of spiritual power to the mastery of realm and mentality, the explanations are detailed and thorough, without any reservations.

Linghu focused his mind and absorbed every word.

With the help of the Enlightenment Tea, he initially felt a refreshing sensation acting on his mind, making his brain feel a little more functional.

But that feeling quickly disappeared.

It made him feel like it was a useless thing.

Perhaps the higher one's comprehension, the less effective the medication will be.

A full month.

He thoroughly understood all the intricacies of breaking through to the Void Refinement Realm before getting up.

"Thank you for informing me, Master. I am deeply grateful!"

"Alright, go ahead. I hope you can break through to the Void Refinement stage soon."

Linghu Qing bowed and took his leave.

After watching his retreating figure leave the main hall, Master Lei Luo watched him go.

The main hall was completely silent.

He raised his hand and took out an ancient wooden divination tablet, spitting out a mouthful of pure blood essence, which landed on the tablet.

hum!

The divination tablets glowed with spiritual light, beginning to deduce heavenly secrets and destiny.

Master Lei Luo's gaze never left the divination tablet.

Using his essence blood to deduce things would consume a lot of his cultivation, and it would take a long time to replenish it.

Therefore, he has rarely consulted divination since he broke through to the Fusion Realm.

But he was willing to take action again for Linghu Qing.

His intuition told him so.

Linghu Qing possesses unparalleled talent and will undoubtedly be key to the rise of the human race in the future.

A moment later, the inspiration dissipated.

"That's strange."

"The hexagram is unremarkable, neither auspicious nor inauspicious, neither noble nor ordinary."

Master Lei Luo's expression suddenly turned serious, his eyes filled with confusion.

Could it be that my intuition is wrong?

Compared to intuition, his divinations are less likely to be wrong, unless a Mahayana practitioner with prophetic abilities personally intervenes to alter the results for Linghu Qing.

But the chances are too low.

Perhaps, Linghu Qing was just an ordinary prodigy, like the ordinary fish that were once stranded on the beach of history.

Although they may stand out at the beginning, they will be submerged by the tide of history.

A strange sense of disappointment and confusion welled up in his heart.

Master Lei Luo sincerely hoped that his divination would not have yielded this result.

outside the temple.

Linghu Qing walked slowly out of the Elders' Hall, his steps pausing slightly.

In the darkness, he clearly sensed that someone had been secretly deducing his destiny.

Linghu Qing was not worried at all.


If someone were to cast a divination for themselves, they would only receive a harmless, ordinary, and unremarkable result.

On the one hand, it is to hide your Five Thunder Forbidden Hexagram body; otherwise, if others cannot deduce your existence, wouldn't that mean you are special?

One reason is to avoid attracting attention.

He withdrew his gaze, his expression calm, and strode away.

Not long after he left.

An old Taoist priest with gray hair silently entered the Elder Hall.

The guards outside the hall seemed to ignore him, their eyes fixed straight ahead, as if they couldn't see the figure passing by them.

No one noticed anything unusual.

The ancestral home of the Ling family.

A dark stone altar.

The great formation sealed off the surroundings, the black mist thick and heavy, isolating all heavenly secrets and auras.

The interconnected array completely sealed off the entire underground space, isolating it from the outside world.

In the center of the stone platform.

Linghu Qing lay quietly with his eyes closed, seemingly unconscious.

She turned to look at Ling Cangwu beside her and spoke in a low voice.

"Ancestor, isn't it too risky to take action directly within our family?"

Ling Meier stood to the side, her figure alluring, her brows and eyes displaying extreme excitement and exhilaration, along with a hint of barely concealed trepidation and worry.

Ling Cangwu stood in the darkness, his expression calm and his tone resolute.

"Won't!"

"If we wait for him to go out on a mission and then request to leave the city as well, it will inevitably arouse suspicion."

"I have set up a chain array here to seal off all aura, fluctuations, and sounds."

"No outsider will be able to detect it in a short period of time."

"Once you have successfully enslaved Linghu Qing, we will quietly release him. Everything will be as normal, and no one will notice anything unusual."
