The glimmer of morning light penetrated the layers of mist and sprinkled softly on the earth.
The gentle breeze blew from the valley, blowing away the thick burnt smell beside Yingyue Lake.
A large number of disciples dressed in Qingyun Sect costumes are gathering in groups of two or three, either cleaning the ruins, searching for and rescuing the wounded, or chasing down demon cultivators... Peace and order are being restored here at an extremely fast speed.
On top of the ruins, facing the morning light of the morning sun, a middle-aged foundation-building monk was carefully questioning Lin Chen and others.
"You mean, Elder Yang fought hard to kill most of the demon cultivators, but was also seriously injured. In the end, in order to save the disciples elsewhere, he did not hesitate to sacrifice his life to move the formation, break the blood mist, and let you send out a distress signal? "
After listening to the stories of several people, the middle-aged monk was silent for a while, and then confirmed softly.
"That's right." Lin Chen said with a sad look on his face, with three parts reluctance, three parts admiration and four parts heaviness in his eyes.
"Alas." The middle-aged monk sighed, and then closed his eyes slightly, "It's the sect that feels sorry for Elder Yang."
"Elder, maybe we can give Elder Yang's descendants more compensation." Lin Chen suggested softly.
After hearing this, the middle-aged monk was silent for a long time, and then sighed: "Elder Yang has no descendants."
"Huh?!" Lin Chen was slightly startled.
"After his Taoist companion failed to attack the foundation-building stage, he passed away soon after. Since then, Elder Yang was heartbroken and stopped pursuing the Tao, and focused more on cultivating the younger generations of disciples." The middle-aged monk explained .
Lin Chen also fell into silence after hearing this.
"You just need to take a good rest. Don't worry, this matter won't go away like this." The middle-aged monk comforted, while his eyes gradually became sharp, "The sect will definitely give an explanation for this matter. Blood debt can only be used Pay with blood!"
After saying that, the middle-aged monk turned around and left. After all, there were still many things to do next, and it was impossible to spend too much time on Lin Chen and the others.
After the middle-aged monk walked away, Lin Chen turned around and found Xu Mengyun and Liu Qiqiang, their mouths slightly open, looking at him in surprise.
"What's wrong?" Lin Chen couldn't help but ask.
"No, it's okay." Xu Mengyun quickly shook her head.
She couldn't tell for a moment whether Lin Chen was really showing his true feelings just now, or was he acting?
"Since there's nothing wrong, let's go." Lin Chen nodded slightly, without bothering to explore, turned around and left, and the two of them quickly followed.
"Brother, why do you want to put the credit for killing the demon cultivator on Elder Yang." After walking for a while, Liu Qiqiang finally couldn't help but ask.
Although he didn't know the whole story, and he didn't see Lin Chen single-handedly killing the opponent, he knew that the reason why so many people survived in Yuehu Mountain this time was entirely Lin Chen's. credit.
Not to mention that the higher-ups of the sect were notified later, which indirectly saved the lives of many disciples.
In his opinion, such a great achievement, not to mention other disciples, even him wanted to jump out and shout, for fear that others would not know.
You know, these achievements are all naked achievements. I don’t know how many resources can be exchanged for, how many benefits can be obtained, and what position can be achieved, but why did the senior brother give it away?
Besides, if the senior brother's status increases, doesn't the status of his subordinate also increase?
Lin Chen glanced at him and said nothing.
Xu Mengyun on the side couldn't help but roll her eyes at him and said: "Can you not only think about the interests and benefits in your mind, but also consider the risks and troubles that may be caused by the benefits."
"Now the entire sect's disciples have suffered heavy casualties. I don't know how many of their relatives, friends, masters, disciples, and Taoists died in this raid."
"If you now make your junior brother famous throughout the sect for killing demon cultivators, what do you think other people will think? Our relatives and friends are dead, but you are prospering?"
"This..." Liu Qiqiang couldn't help but be speechless for a moment.
Listening to what Xu Mengyun said, it seemed to make sense. After all, people's hearts are unpredictable.
"So this matter cannot be made public to avoid unnecessary trouble."
"But you can't really want nothing." Xu Mengyun changed the topic.
"Since you have the ability, ability, and merit, you must let the higher-ups know about it. It's impossible to remain so unknown and not get any benefits. Otherwise, where will the resources come from?"
"But how to let the senior management know, to what extent they know, and how much benefit they can get. I believe that Junior Brother Lin Chen has already made a plan in his heart. This is not what you need to know."
"What the senior sister taught me is that it was my junior brother who made the mistake." After hearing this, Liu Qiqiang suddenly realized and bowed down quickly.
"Let's go." Lin Chen did not respond to the conversation between the two, but nodded and left directly. Xu Mengyun immediately followed.
Liu Qiqiang, on the other hand, slowed down and looked thoughtful.
Fame and trouble, interests and risks have always coexisted. How to balance the two and obtain sufficient benefits is a knowledge that requires long-term thinking.
Then, when he saw Lin Chen's back getting further and further away, he couldn't help but be startled and quickly followed him.
Soon, the three figures disappeared beside Yingyue Lake.
Just when such a big event happened in Qingyun Sect, on the other side, Jiangcheng.
Jiangcheng is a piece of yellow sand, a land without any life. Master Jianxuan is sitting cross-legged.
In front of him is a long bronze sword hanging in the air, and underneath him are clumps of extremely sharp [Sword Grass] filled with sword energy!
The sword grass took root in this lifeless land, constantly absorbing spiritual energy, killing intent, and tempering with the magic power of Master Jianxuan, and condensed sword energy that was enough to kill the foundation-building monks with ease!
And these sword auras are continuously flowing into the bronze sword, making the aura on the latter more and more fierce, and even the surrounding space is vaguely distorted!
"I really didn't expect that there would be such a harvest." Master Jianxuan looked at the continuously tempered spiritual sword in front of him, with a flash of joy in his eyes.
During this period of time, he had been staying in Jiangcheng, studying the murderous intention that remained in the land. By chance, he unexpectedly discovered that his own spiritual sword grass could extract the murderous intention from it. Turn it into your own use!
Although the sword grass cannot sustain this process for too long, he can continue to extract the murderous intention by relying on his rich wealth and the continuous birth of his own spiritual plants.
The extracted murderous intention is integrated into his natal spiritual sword, and coupled with his basic magic [Hidden Sword Technique], it can create a sword light that is enough to kill the golden elixir!
Not only that, he can also rely on this to continuously improve his own cultivation!
"Huh——" Master Jianxuan took a long breath.
In the land of Lingnan, when one reaches the Golden Core level, there are not many spiritual beings that can promote his progress. It is rare to encounter this opportunity, so naturally he has to make good use of it.
Just when he was about to continue meditating with his eyes closed and refining his murderous intention, he was suddenly stunned and took out the Shengfeng Wood that the sect used to communicate from the storage ring.
"The disciples of the sect were killed, and senior brother Changqing was attacked?!" After sensing the information clearly, Master Jianxuan's expression changed.
He never expected that such a big thing would happen after he had just left the sect for a few days!
Master Jianxuan stood up immediately, looked at the natal spiritual sword in front of him, hesitated for a moment, left a spiritual avatar, and then turned into a stream of light and flew into the distance!
Soon, he came to a hill outside Jiangcheng, and on the hill, there was a huge flying boat parked.
"Master!" Zhang Mengyao quickly saw the person coming and came over to greet him.
"Something happened to the sect, I have to rush back immediately!" Master Jianxuan said directly, "I will leave a spiritual avatar here to assist you in sealing off the nearby area. Remember, don't allow anyone to approach!"
The sect was attacked? !
Zhang Mengyao couldn't help being shocked when she heard this, but she reacted immediately and said yes.
After making arrangements for Jiangcheng, Master Jianxuan turned into a stream of light and flew straight towards Qingyun Sect without hesitation.
At this moment, next to the place where the Transformation God fell.
A huge fireball hundreds of meters long, emitting endless light and flames, completely dispersed the cloudy ghost tide below.
The blazing flames completely enveloped the shadowy ghost!
"Jie Jie Jie!" Taiyin Zhenren, who was in the ghost shadow, not only did not show any fear at this moment, but instead let out a weird smile.
"Old ghost Qingyang, we will meet again later!"
As soon as he finished speaking, ghosts with different attributes suddenly appeared around him.
This is a ghost created by Master Taiyin using the technique of "Sepulching Souls and Connecting the Netherworld" to refine five foundation-building monks whose main attributes are metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
When they gather together, Taiyin Master can simulate the famous "Five Ghost Transport" technique in the ghost world!
The terrifying fire covered it, but in the flames, the figure of Taiyin Master had disappeared without a trace!
Seeing this, Master Qingyang's face became gloomy.
The other party was clearly no match for him, but he managed to escape from his hands many times by relying on the technique of "Five Ghost Transport" simulated by "Self-tending into the Netherworld".
"If you want to destroy the opponent, you must achieve success with one blow, otherwise there is nothing I can do if he performs this technique!" Master Qingyang thought to himself.
At this time, he also sensed the message from the sect and took out the Shengfeng Wood from the storage ring. After sensing the message, his expression also changed.
He was just about to get up, but as if he sensed something, he suddenly turned back and looked at the place where the Avatar had fallen.
In his sense of consciousness, he felt that the terrifying power that enveloped the entire canyon began to rise steadily, and at the same time began to gather into the canyon.
Obviously, the battle between the two remaining forces of the God Transformation monks has once again entered a fierce stage, and after this time passes, the two major sects will have the opportunity to enter the valley!
The occurrence of this opportunity will trigger a fierce battle between the two sects.
The outcome of the fierce battle will also determine the fate of the Nascent Soul stage, and it also represents the end of the thousands-year struggle between the two sects!
