Tianxing City. In a deserted hall, a golden elixir monk was closing his eyes, waiting for the tranquility of the place.
I saw the plaque on the main hall saying
"Hall of Eternal Life". There was a bronze lamp burning in the hall, and after the lamp oil burned, it gave off a faint fragrance. Rows of neat lamps are placed in the center of the hall, with names engraved under the lamps.
On this day, the flames of a row of lamps swayed gently, and the flame of the top lamp suddenly went out. The Jindan monk in seclusion immediately sensed the movement in the hall.
When I came in, I saw that the lamp was out. Looking at the position where the lamp was placed, it turned out to be the position of the Yuanying monk. When his spiritual consciousness scanned the name under the lamp, it was the three characters "Jin Jiuxiao".
"Elder Jin?" Jin Dan was stunned for a moment. But he didn't dare to be expert, so he took out the letter talisman and informed his superiors to confirm that there was no false alarm.
One day later, it was confirmed within the Star Palace. Jin Jiuxiao's soul left in the soul lamp dissipated completely without a trace remaining.
"Obviously he's dead!" A Nascent Soul elder frowned and sighed.
"How did you die?"
"Is this important?" an elder asked, "Now, the key thing is that our star palace's reputation can no longer deter outsiders..."
"Are they the ones who spread the rumors?" When the rumors were mentioned, everyone fell silent. Since decades ago, various 'rumors' about the Twin Saints have been circulating near the Chaotic Star Sea.
Star Palace has been working hard to suppress these people who spread rumors! But even though they were suppressed again and again, the rumors spread more and more widely.
Many elders of the Star Palace were also worried and wanted to ask the Twin Saints of the Stars to take charge of the overall situation. But these requests were all rejected with the excuse of 'a breakthrough is imminent'!
If it weren't for the Twin Saints of Heaven and Stars showing up from time to time to receive one or two of the Xing Gong Nascent Soul elders who came to pay their respects, I'm afraid these elders themselves would have rebelled first.
However, according to internal information, the current situation of the Heavenly Star Twin Saints is getting closer and closer to those rumors.
That's why one person bluntly said that "Xinggong's brand" cannot deter outsiders.
"Hmph, no matter what, Elder Jin's revenge must be avenged..."
"Yes, I agree with this!" Several others also agreed. They are all beneficiaries of the star palace system, and naturally they must do their best to maintain such a system.
"However, Jin Jiuxiao has been reclusive since he was injured a hundred years ago. I have never heard of him encountering any danger..." Several people couldn't help pinching their beards and frowning after hearing this.
"This statement is indeed true. I'm afraid this matter needs to be investigated!"
"That's all, let's investigate first. No matter which force it is or what the reason is for killing Elder Jin, you and I will punish him together!"
"agree."
"That's how it should be." Several Yuanying old monsters reached a consensus on this. ...The open sea, a deserted island.
"Wow!" Manbeard spat out a mouthful of poisonous blood, which fell on the brown beach. A white acid gas emerged from the beach, and the poisonous blood actually melted a layer of soil and gravel.
"It's so poisonous." Manbeard sat down cross-legged. The strands of poison are like spider silk, tangled together and extremely difficult to get rid of.
Manbeard has a strong physique, but after being attacked from both inside and outside, he is inevitably a little weaker. This time, after escaping from Li Su's men, Man Beard devoted himself to removing the remaining poison from his body, but there was nothing difficult to remove.
I saw Manbeard vomiting out some smelly blood, then stabbing his chest with his fingers like a knife, and then bent his fingers into claws to tear off some flesh and blood organs.
These flesh and blood are contaminated with the poison of Blue Sky Snake's green blood! After the flesh and blood were removed one by one, Manbeard's body had lost nearly half of its flesh.
Looking from a distance, it looks like a skeleton sitting on the beach rocks, with steaming internal organs emitting white smoke, and a black heart beating vigorously in the purple-gold skeleton.
"Huh..." After his body was 'ruined' like this, there was still no trace of fear on the bearded face.
It seemed that he had already experienced such an injury, so much so that he dared to treat it like this after being contaminated with toxins.
"Fortunately, I am a 'half-demon body', and I practice this "Tian Tian Demonic Art". These ordinary injuries can't help me. As long as I don't have to go through the heart and behead my head, it will be difficult to die." Waiting for Man Beard to finish talking to himself. , he shook out a red storage bag.
A large amount of flesh and blood fell out of the storage bag. The bearded man's eyes were red, and the saliva was drooling from the corner of his mouth. The skin that was originally exposed now had a layer of golden and purple scales, and a pair of purple and gold horns pointed diagonally at the sky.
"Wow!" The large pieces of flesh and blood in Manbeard's storage bag were raw, but under Manbeard's sharp teeth, the pieces turned into minced meat and were swallowed by him.
After an unknown amount of time, Manbeard burped, and a stream of purple-black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
He patted his belly and looked at the injuries all over his body. Everything is fine! The remaining toxins in the body were also eliminated.
"But..." Manbeard touched his face. A series of ugly wrinkles criss-crossing the ravines now covered his face.
"Damn it, life span." Manbeard cursed angrily. Li Su's toxin cut off 30% of his lifespan, which was extremely fatal for Barbarian Beard.
Although all the horrific injuries all over his body were healed, the lost lifespan could not be regained.
"Damn it, although eating monks' flesh and blood can assist in rapid healing, practicing magic skills can't help me prolong my life. Instead, it prevents many life-extending methods from taking effect on my body." Man Beard was a little angry, but there was nothing he could do about this skill. , and have no talent to improve this method.
"Forget it, Xutian Palace, I'm going to bet my life this time. If I don't find a way to extend my life, I will drag others to die in there..." A trace of madness flashed in Manbeard's eyes, but he recovered immediately. Calm, then becomes turbid, like a tired old man.
"Xu Tian Palace is not in a hurry. Let's collect the interest first!" Man Beard thought for a while and then sent out a letter talisman.
A few days later. The 'truth' about Jin Jiuxiao's murder began to spread among the many islands and markets in the Chaotic Star Sea.
As Xing Gong, who has eyes and ears all over the sea, naturally knew it soon! Tianxing Island, Five Elements Island. Ling Yuling walked slowly on the five small islands in the lake.
There were many five-element spiritual objects collected by the Star Palace monks piled on it, but they still did not meet Ling Yuling's requirements.
"Yuanci, Yuanci!" Ling Yuling clasped her hands behind her back and sighed in distress.
"It takes the Five Elements method to crack it, but how can it be that simple?" As Ling Yuling gradually understood her parents' plight, she also had a strong desire to help her parents out of trouble.
"It's a pity that if it were the innate five spiritual roots, it would be much better than the acquired five elements." After saying that, Ling Yuling suddenly smiled.
"Oh, I'm really stunned. If you are a Five Spiritual Root monk, it will be great to reach the late stage of Qi training. It is impossible to become a Golden Core monk..." As the largest force in the Chaotic Star Sea, Ling Yuling read the classics from the Star Palace , learned some of the mysteries of spiritual roots.
"It was not that difficult to practice the five spiritual roots when the spiritual energy was abundant in ancient times."
"How about I cultivate a five-spirit root myself, and then help him achieve the golden elixir and then conceive a baby?" Ling Yuling had various thoughts in her mind, but she heard footsteps getting closer and closer.
"Young Master." The visitor knelt down a hundred feet away. Ling Yuling, who was sitting in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, turned her head and looked at a Jindan subordinate who came to report.
"What's the matter?" The visitor didn't dare to look at Ling Yuling, nor did he dare to look around him because there were piles of Five Elements spiritual objects.
"Reporting to Young Master, I came here because of..." The visitor told the rumor again. Ling Yuling immediately frowned and said, "Elder Jin is dead?"
"Ah, so that's what happened!" Ling Yuling immediately recalled Elder Jin's grandson. The 'second generation' seemed to rarely come to see him.
Oh, no, it should be said that a hundred years ago, someone said that he was dead. At that time, Ling Yuling was busy looking for a way to save her parents, and Jin Jiuxiao was in seclusion after being seriously injured, so Ling Yuling never paid attention to this matter.
However, this time, it was a 'Nascent Soul' who died!
"Such a big shot..." Ling Yuling sighed in her heart.
"The monster of Miaoyin Island!" When Ling Yuling heard her subordinates mention "Miaoyin Island", she also thought of that person.
'I was planning to accept him as my disciple...' Ling Yu suddenly thought about looking for the mainland and prepared to accept Li Su as his subordinate.
Later, Li Su also felt this pressure and began to retreat to break through Yuanying! Unexpectedly, after returning from Miaoyin City, Ling Yuling temporarily forgot about this plan.
This time, when her subordinates mentioned Miaoyin City, Ling Yuling thought of this plan again.
"Is there a demon cultivator in Miaoyin City?" When Ling Yuling spoke, he faced an open space. In the direction of the clearing, an old man appeared, it was Elder Bai who was protecting him.
This man still looked like an old man. He touched his beard and shook his head: "Last time, when you and I went there, there was no Nascent Soul demon cultivator!"
"Oh, is this a lie?" Ling Yuling lowered her head and looked at Jin Dan's subordinate again. The other party swallowed nervously and replied: "Reporting to Young Master and Elder Bai, this rumor is not groundless. The elders in the palace did not believe it at first. Later, the rumor revealed the location and time of the battle..."
"The elders in the palace took action to check out a few people and got some peripheral information."
"At the time and place mentioned in the rumors, someone did see someone fighting from a distance."
"Moreover, the aftermath of that fight was far more powerful than the Golden Core cultivator..."
"That's it!" Elder Bai turned his head and glanced at Ling Yuling. Obviously, although this rumor came out of nowhere, it may not be groundless!
Ling Yuling fell into thinking.
"Miaoyin City has colluded with the transformed demon cultivator?" This rumor was very sudden, and then the next 'rumor' turned out to be 'the demon cultivator killed the elder of Star Palace'.
Daoxin was not specified in this rumor, and only one of the elders of Xinggong had died recently. Jin Jiuxiao!
"Why would someone deliberately spread rumors?" Ling Yuling was so smart that she naturally did not want to be led by the nose and spoke to Elder Bai.
"I heard that the master of the Miaoyin Sect also used a Nascent Soul monster to fight against the enemy?"
"Not bad." Elder Bai nodded.
"I didn't see it the last time I went there." Ling Yuling nodded after hearing this, and then said to Elder Bai: "This matter is quite strange, and it involves Elder Xinggong. I will go to investigate in person..."
"This?" Elder Bai was stunned.
"Isn't it not in line with the rules? It will arouse criticism from everyone!"
"Haha, you Nascent Soul elders are working hard and have many things to do..." Ling Yuling said haha, avoiding the important and taking the easy.
"Leave this matter to me!" Elder Bai frowned and thought for a while, then said: "If the young master gives up some of his interests, he will definitely get the consent of all the elders."
"Yes!" Ling Yuling nodded immediately. In the Star Palace, the Twin Saints of Heaven and Star suppressed all dissatisfaction, but there were also many hills. Internal conflicts could not just be solved with fists, but needed to be negotiated and reconciled.
It was not difficult for Ling Yuling to give up the division of interests in Jin Jiuxiao's name on behalf of the "Two Saints" and exchange it for his own authority to investigate the cause of Jin Jiuxiao's death.
"Elder, come with me to the City of Wonderful Sound."
"Yes." Elder Bai responded hesitantly, but added another suggestion.
"Young Master, since Jin Jiuxiao can be killed, please bring more Nascent Soul elders to protect you when you go out to investigate the cause of his death this time!"
"Okay, okay, okay!" Ling Yuling agreed without looking back, and plunged into the embroidered building on the island. A few hours later.
Two new Yuanying monks are on standby. Including Elder Bai, a total of three people were waiting outside the embroidery building.
After a long time, the delicate red door of the embroidered building opened, and a noble girl of unparalleled youth and beauty walked out. Several Nascent Souls were also well-informed people. The two newcomers looked at each other, and then looked at Elder Bai in unison.
When Elder Bai saw Ling Yuling's appearance after returning to the embroidery building, he was shocked at first and then shook his head with a wry smile.
Seeing the eyes of his two colleagues, Elder Bai shook his head gently. The three of them lowered their gazes in unison without saying anything.
Ling Yuling didn't pay attention. Just now, she remembered that she was going to Miaoyin City, so she subconsciously returned to the embroidery building.
Sit in front of the bronze mirror and stare at the person in the mirror. Ling Yuling subconsciously picked up the eyebrow pencil and the golden fork to tie up the exquisite hair accessories.
The four of them went all the way to the City of Wonderful Sound. Looking at this bustling little town, Ling Yuling felt a little timid.
But before she could get used to it, three people walked around behind her and surrounded her. Ling Yuling knew in her heart that there was a 'Nascent Soul' coming behind her!
After Ling Yuling, the third veteran of Star Palace, was protected, a rainbow light in the distance revealed his true figure.
"It's him!" Ling Yuling's heart moved.
"Nascent Soul?" The aura coming from Li Su was undeniable. How could Ling Yuling not recognize his cultivation level!
Unexpectedly, just a few years after separation, he had already become a Nascent Soul monk.
"What a young Nascent Soul monk!" One of the guarding old men sighed in a low voice.
"Old Bai, do you know each other?" another guard asked. When Elder Bai looked at Li Su suspended in the air, how could he be less surprised than Ling Yuling?
"Yes!" Before he could speak, Ling Yuling asked, "Elder Bai, can you sense the aura of the transformed demon cultivator?"
"This...no!" The three guards all shook their heads. The three people who were chosen to protect Ling Yuling were certainly not ordinary monks and had a lot of knowledge.
Obviously, no small mistakes can be made!
"What about this person?"
"In the early stage of Nascent Soul, he has just broken through. You can tell it from his breath."
"But this person's foundation is very solid. Even if he has just broken through the Nascent Soul, he doesn't have any sense of vanity!"
"Yes, his physique seems to have been specially trained, and he may have special physical training methods!" The three of them talked to each other and analyzed most of Li Su.
"Can this person kill Elder Jin?"
"This..." This question stumped several people.
"If we communicate with a few other people, it's not impossible!"
"Forget it, I'll go ahead and check it out first." Ling Yuling pushed aside a few people and stepped out from the crowd.
"Fellow Taoist Creation..."
