"Ahem...you two come in."
Yu Wan and Li Hao, who were standing outside the hall, finally got the consent of Jian Xiu, the sect leader in the hall. However, hearing him speak and coughing, the two of them couldn't help but look at each other and understood. They were afraid that the sect leader was also injured and was meditating at this moment. , and if they came, they would only disturb his retreat.
However, after returning this time, there were still many things and situations that could not be avoided. They also had to meet the sect leader, and the two of them had no choice but to walk towards the palace...
When they came to the main hall, there was basically no change here. The only change was that Jian Xiu no longer stood and stared at them like he did every time.
Instead, he crossed his knees and crossed his legs, sat quietly and adjusted his breath, waiting for them on the main hall. There was also a water-blue light screen surrounding him to protect him.
"Disciple Yu Wan."
"Disciple Li Hao."
"I've met the sect master."
Yu Wan and Li Hao arrived at the hall and took the lead in saluting Jian Xiu respectfully.
"Well, get up."
Jian Xiu said with a slightly hoarse voice.
"Thank you, Sect Master."
After the two stood up, before Jian Xiu could take the lead in asking questions, Yu Wan said with some worry:
"Sect Master, you are injured, are you okay?"
"Ahem...it's okay. It's an old problem. It just needs to be adjusted and warmed for a while."
Although Jian Xiu said this, Yu Wan's spiritual consciousness explored the area and discovered that in addition to the aqua blue spiritual energy that nourished Jian Xiu's body, there was also a thin layer of black mist interspersed in it...
Demon poison? !
The sect leader was actually poisoned by a demonic spirit? !
Yu Wan saw it, and Li Hao also saw it. After the two subconsciously looked at each other with wide eyes, Li Hao asked directly:
"Sect Master, have you been poisoned by a demonic spirit?"
Jian Xiu was not surprised by their reaction. More than two hundred years ago, he went to assist Shuoyin Sect. During the battle, he was unfortunately hit by the demonic energy of a high-level demon cultivator at close range. He was asked to use the magic weapon with a The demon poison took advantage of the situation and entered his body!
At that time, I didn’t know what the poison was, but it was extremely harmful. It quickly spread to his limbs and bones, and even went straight to his Dantian Qi sea, corroding his spiritual energy!
Just when the poisonous gas was traveling through the meridians, he realized something was wrong and immediately blocked the Dantian location to prevent it from being persecuted. It may also be that as a single water spiritual root, he could very well inhibit the spread of the demonic poison, so he went to the hospital. The demonic poison that covered his entire meridians and flesh finally stopped at his Dantian, unable to move even an inch.
But he himself was not allowed to release his spiritual energy for external use, which also hindered Jian Xiu's output. Even if he took a hit from the high-level demon cultivator's Heart-Breaking Palm!
Jian Xiu was seriously injured, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. If it hadn't been for the fact that Xie Yuan, the master of Qingxu Peak who had been in seclusion for a long time, came out of seclusion and went straight to the Shuoyin Gate where the battle was taking place, just in time to see him being broken to pieces by the demon cultivator. Xinmai, and after taking action in time to kill the demon cultivator, and feeding him a top-grade elixir and detoxification pill that could effectively restore the Dharma body, I was afraid that it was still unknown whether Jian Xiu himself could survive to this day. !
It's just that this evil spirit poison is extremely difficult to eliminate from the body. Even if he takes Xie Yuan's top-quality detoxification pill, the poisonous evil gate is so tight that it will not exit the body with the attack of the pill. Instead, it requires his own spiritual energy to work with it. If you are strong, it will be weak; if you are weak, it will swallow your spiritual energy!
Therefore, the protracted battle to rid Jian Xiu's body of demon poison started more than two hundred years ago and is still at a stalemate to this day.
It's just that it's not without results. The demonic poison that was originally tightly surrounding his Dantian has now been driven out of his torso and forced back to his limbs. It will probably take another hundred years to complete. Eliminate them completely.
This process really kills time...
"Both of you have returned from the Jade Immortal Sect?"
Jian Xiu raised his eyes to look at Yu Wan and Li Hao, and saw that both of them were in the state of divine transformation, and Yu Wan was exuding the same level of late stage divine transformation strength as him. Jian Xiu couldn't help but look at him in surprise. Introduce the topic and ask.
"Exactly, the two of us entered the Jade Immortal Sect's mirage three hundred years ago. It was also in the past two days that the mirage opened again and we were able to come out. But I didn't expect that after we came out, it would take three hundred years, or even There was also such a big event as the Demonic Abyss barrier shattering and the Demonic Cultivators invading our world of cultivation." Yu Wan described the process and said with emotion.
"Well, a lot of things did happen. I remember that I asked you to go to the Jade Immortal Sect to track down the fragments of the boundary monument. What was the final result?"
Jian Xiu did not forget the original mission of sending Yu Wan to the Yuxian Sect. After not returning for three hundred years, she also knew through Xue Mei that Yu Wan had entered a mirage. However, Xue Mei did not necessarily only know about the fragments of the boundary monument. It's very clear.
Therefore, Jian Xiu asked Yu Wan directly. At this time, he no longer cared about whether Li Hao was around.
Yu Wan shook her head helplessly and said:
"The disciples did not find the fragment of the boundary monument. At first, someone said that the demon cultivator took something suspected to be the fragment of the boundary monument and went straight to the mountains of the Snow Mountains in the northern part of the Jade Immortal Sect. After hearing this news, the disciples gathered in the group I wandered around the mountain to explore for nearly a month, and found that many monks were there to investigate.
However, with the power of the disciple's induction, there was no trace of the aura of the fragment of the boundary monument. Then the mirage opened. The disciple was lucky enough to get a place, so he entered the mirage with Senior Brother Li until three hundred years passed. He only came out of that secret place in the year. "
Jian Xiu listened to Yu Wan's explanation, nodded slightly, and then asked again:
"Ahem...I see that both of you have improved in cultivation, but did you get the chance in a mirage?"
Asking about opportunities is a hidden matter, but Jian Xiu is the leader of the sect. If he wants to ask, Yu Wan and Li Hao have to answer, so the two of them explained their experience in the mirage roughly the same as Jian Xiu... …
"Haha, the power of Rihua has been obtained by you. No wonder your cultivation has improved so rapidly. For you, a member of the outside sect, to obtain a treasure that is unattainable and unattainable in their Jade Immortal Sect, I think Immortal Ye You must be very distressed."
When he heard Yu Wan say that he had obtained the power of Rihua, he was naturally happy for her, but at the same time, he thought of the loss of the Jade Immortal Sect and couldn't help but joke.
"Fortunately, the Jade Immortal Sect was generous and did not embarrass the disciples." Yu Wan could only say modestly.
"Huh, from my point of view, they are not such easy talkers. However, the Shuoyin Sect was invaded by demonic cultivators before. I can't guarantee which sect will be unlucky enough to be attacked next time. At this time, we, the cultivator community, must not engage in internal strife. Is it true? , and your own cultivation level is so unbelievable. If you turn against you, the consequences will be very serious, even if they don’t make small moves at this time." Jian Xiu said in a deep voice.
"By the way, Sect Master, we met someone from the Xie family in Yuxian Paifang City." Yu Wan said.
"Xie family?"
Jian Xiu, who didn't react for a moment, hadn't thought about who the Xie family member Yu Wan was talking about.
"It's the Xie family, the original pill family, that was exterminated because of demons." Yu Wan explained in a deep voice.
"Xie family, what happened to them? But is there any news about Xie Anyuan, the head of the Xie family?"
Jian Xiu couldn't help but frown and asked.
"Yes, to be precise, it's the news from Xie Lin. Xie Lin became a demon and became a half-demon. Moreover, after becoming a demon, his cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds to the level of the late-stage god transformation!
Not only that, the disciple also discovered that his demonic energy was different from other demonic cultivators. His demonic energy naturally contained demonic poison!
Even after fighting with him and destroying his Dantian, it was discovered that his Nascent Soul Golden Pill had accumulated a large amount of demonic poison. It seemed that the origin of his demonic energy was no longer pure black demonic energy, but was composed of this demonic poison. gathered together.
Even the demonic poison caused Xie Lin's bone age to be hundreds or even thousands of years older than those of us at the same age. When the disciple discovered this, he was also surprised. "Yu Wan told Jian Xiu Dao Ming about the situation she discovered after fighting Xie Lin.
After Jian Xiu heard this, he couldn't help frowning. He was deeply harmed by the demon poison. When he heard that Xie Lin actually used the demon poison to improve his cultivation by such a rapid pace, it really made him feel extremely contradictory!
If the demon spirit poison can allow those who have become demons to advance so quickly, will it force the poisoned immortal cultivators to abandon immortality and choose to cultivate demons instead of being forced to do so, but do not want to break the fate of immortality? !
After all, the process of exorcising demonic poisons is long and painful. Those without great perseverance cannot persevere. Even in the process of exorcising poisons, it will delay the process of cultivating immortality, making the cultivation stop here, and the path to immortality cannot be continued until the poisons are purified. .
Jian Xiu couldn't help but think too much, but this was also an extremely real problem. After all, the demon poison was too harmful...
Seeing Jian Xiu deep in thought, Yu Wan waited and finally told Jian Xiu the vague and incomplete memory fragments she saw when searching for Xie Lin's soul:
"Sect Master, there is one more thing that I don't know whether I should say."
"What's the matter? Tell me."
Yu Wan's words brought Jian Xiu back from his thoughts. Seeing Yu Wan being so hesitant, he couldn't help but ask doubtfully.
"When the disciple was searching for Xie Lin's soul, he found that several important memory fragments in his picture were lost in formation so that no one could touch them. The ripples in the formation did not seem to be blessed by Xie Lin's own power, like It is controlled by the blessing and control of higher-level magic cultivators.
The disciple later tried to explore rashly, but he didn't expect that the formation was about to explode. When Xie Lin's memories exploded on the spot, Xie Lin was completely brain-dead under the self-destruction.
The clues detected by the disciples' spiritual consciousness were that the reason why Xie Lin survived being poisoned by the demon spirit poison was because he soaked in a pool of gaseous liquefied demon spirit poison, allowing the demon spirit poison to corrode their bodies and meridians. The process was naturally the same. Horrible.
However, if they succeed, the advancement speed and strength will be imposed on them in multiples. However, this advancement method needs to be able to withstand every attack of the demon poison in order to use it qualifiedly.
There is also a drawback here. They cannot stay away from the Demonic Poison Pond for too long. Usually, they have to go back and soak in it every once in a while to absorb the Demonic Poison and gain its power. This is the general picture that the disciples see. "
Yu Wan explained with a very solemn expression while recalling what she had seen.
"There is such a thing?!"
Not only Li Hao, but also Jian Xiu was also very surprised that the power of the demon poison was so powerful? !
Not only can it poison their cultivators, but it can even improve the cultivation strength of demonic cultivators so powerfully!
If compared like this, if monks and demon cultivators at the same level are training at the same time, wouldn't it mean that their demon cultivators have an advantage? !
Think about it, if this is the law of creation, wouldn't it mean that the proportion of high-level demon cultivators would be more and more powerful than their immortal cultivators? !
They couldn't help but worry. After more than two hundred years of peace, the Demonic Abyss barrier was gone. When would the Demonic Cultivators attack again? !
This news from Yu Wan is very important!
"Then can you find out where their demonic poison pool is? Also, can you find anything that can eliminate the demonic poison?" Jian Xiu asked Yu Wan again.
Yu Wan shook her head gently and said:
"The disciple doesn't know. I originally wanted to investigate deeply, but in the end, the fragments that controlled his sea of consciousness exploded instantly, and the disciple had to withdraw in time. No other information could be continued."
Hearing what Yu Wan said, Jian Xiu felt inexplicably disappointed.
"Hey, forget it, it's not easy to get such news. At least we can take precautions in advance." Jian Xiu said.
"By the way, the sect master and the demon cultivator are really good at hiding now. Xie Lin's identity as the Immortal Lord and his infiltration into the Jade Immortal Sect has never been discovered, so there's nothing to say about it. After all, it's okay for him to be well concealed with his cultivation. There is nothing wrong with that.
But the two Nascent Soul Demon Cultivators beside him were able to easily hide from the eyes of us, the Immortal Transformation Lord, which shows how good their concealment skills are.
At this point, I am afraid that our sect may have been mixed in by the demonic cultivators? In addition, the whereabouts of the disciples were always easily controlled by others. Even the disciples' journey to the Jade Immortal Sect was clearly detected by outsiders.
Later, when the disciple searched for Xie Lin's soul, he discovered that he was connected with our sect, Zhenjun Xie Xian. It was Xie Xian who revealed the disciple's whereabouts to Xie Lin every time.
It's just that the disciple doesn't know whether Xie Xian only revealed the disciple's whereabouts, or whether as an internal agent of the demon cultivator, he secretly revealed all the situations within the sect to Xie Lin. "Yu Wan expressed her doubts about Xie Xian to Jian Xiu.
When Jian Xiu heard this, his brows grew even more intense. The messages came one after another, and they were all about such hidden and obscure things. He couldn't be careless. He didn't expect that there were still too many unforeseen things inside the Xuantian Sect, which had always seemed impregnable. Sexual issues exist.
"I am aware of the situation you mentioned. As for Xie Xian's situation, I will send someone to keep an eye on her and wait and see what happens.
Now that Xie Lin has disappeared, if Xie Xian really knows the demon clan, then someone will definitely come to help her, and then they can follow this line and uncover more lurkers hidden deep in the depths.
As for the concealment method of the magic cultivator, I will summon Kong Jue Immortal Lord and Dashan Immortal Lord to discuss countermeasures. After all, one of them is a formation mage and the other is a talisman master. They are auxiliary types who can conceal their movements. These two are the most direct.
After discussing and solving this problem, we can explain the whole situation to the disciples of the sect, so as not to panic and distrust each other if we say it now. "Jian Xiu said in a deep voice.
