Kirigakure Island.
Zhang Yao pondered for a long time, but could not deduce the truth about Yu Wentai and the Five Elements Secret Realm.
The first guess is contradictory in itself:
The one who can completely remove the blood curse is at least the ancestor of the Golden Elixir. If the Yuwen family in history was of ordinary origin, how could they impress an ancestor of the Golden Elixir?
But if the Yuwen family was still a cultivating family at that time, without the shackles of the blood spell, it would have risen rapidly and showed its tyranny, instead of being unknown and lonely.
As for the second guess, it is even more vague.
Unless Yu Wentai is the reincarnation of the Five Elements Sanren back then, he shouldn't know so much about the Five Elements Secret Realm when his bloodline is incompatible.
But the Five Elements Sanren was already a figure two thousand years ago. In such a long time, let alone the Golden Core Stage, the great monks in the Nascent Soul Stage should have turned into dust long ago, and even the remnants of their souls cannot be left behind.
"The current clues are still lacking, and there is a lack of key evidence..."
Zhang Yao thought for a while and secretly made a decision:
"Anyway, this Yuwentai is not simple. He will not be able to return to Dali for at least ten years."
"Before the turmoil caused by the Five Elements Secret Realm passes, let's live in seclusion in the Lu Kingdom to avoid the limelight."
After finding out the details of Yuwentai, he regretted that he had accompanied Master Haihe to meet Yuwentai on the top level of Tianbao Tower.
Yuwentai's understanding of the secret realm of the Five Elements is far beyond his imagination. He may have mastered some secret monitoring method that can see through the foundation of his practice.
Even the dragon carp blood essence and blood he got that day was full of doubts now. He even doubted whether Yu Wentai secretly told Li Shuixian to find an opportunity to give the dragon carp blood essence and blood to him.
"Fortunately, the dragon carp essence and blood can confirm that there is no problem..."
Zhang Yao comforted himself in his heart.
With his understanding and research on the demon bloodline, as well as his unique method of stimulating vitality, almost no one can tamper with the blood essence without being discovered by him.
If he didn't have even this little bit of confidence, he wouldn't have used dragon carp essence and blood to engrave the formation directly after confirming that the test was correct.
"Let's go."
Zhang Yao took one last look at Wuyin Island, turned around, controlled the escape light, and left in a hurry.
Out of fear of Yu Wentai, he was not prepared to stay on Wuyin Island. Anyway, he would mainly focus on consolidating his cultivation and practicing Taoism, and the external environment would have little impact.
An hour later.
Zhang Yao built a new three-story bamboo building deep in Panlong Ridge, Yunzhou, and began his life of seclusion.
He first spent two and a half years, bit by bit, subduing his skyrocketing mana level, and completely consolidating his cultivation in the later stages of foundation building.
After completely eliminating the sequelae caused by 'Kunyuan Spiritual Liquid':
Zhang Yao used the spiritual gold materials such as 'Tianguang Silver' and 'Shui Yunmo' that he had collected previously to refining the yellow talisman armor.
After so many years, thanks to his wealth and sufficient training materials, although he did not pay too much attention to the art of weapon refining, his level has greatly improved and he has reached the second level.
It took ninety-nine and eighty-one days to open the furnace and refine it, and then it was considered complete.
Inside the Bamboo House:
Five large silver talismans were floating in the mid-air, with stars twinkling in a variety of colors.
The aura of these five silver talismans was far greater than the golden armor talisman he had refined earlier, and the spiritual patterns on each talisman were different.
"good."
After Zhang Yao carefully examined it, he showed a satisfied smile.
While practicing hard for many years, he did not give up his practice of Taoism. After so many years, the depth of Huang Fu's Taoism has long been different from the same.
This time, using the top second-level treasure materials, combined with the new level of weapon refining techniques and the Yellow Talisman Dao method, the new Yellow Talisman Armor was refined, and its power has naturally undergone earth-shaking changes.
"Let's name these five sets of armored yellow talismans the 'Five Spirits Divine General Talisman'."
Zhang Yao named these five.
The Five Spirit Divine General Talisman is based on the Golden Armor Divine Talisman, and Zhang Yao created some of the spiritual patterns to refine it.
One of the important objects he refers to is the 'Five Elements Containing Spirit Array' in his own body, especially the principle of the five elements' interdependence, which greatly increases the combat effectiveness of the Five Spirit God Generals.
The body of a divine general manifested by the Five Spirits Divine General Talisman alone, with the blessing of Zhang Yao's magic power, has a combat power comparable to that of a monk in the middle stage of foundation building.
The five great gods will unite into one and form a battle formation to attack each other, which is enough to rival or even suppress the strong ones who have completed the foundation building!
If it had been placed during the Shuifu Raid War, this set of Five Spirit Divine General Talismans alone would have been able to take down the famous and arrogant Solitary Walker, without him having to burn his lifespan at all.
It can be seen from this that Zhang Yao, who has reached the late stage of foundation building, is really powerful.
"The Five Spirit God General Talisman also has the ultimate killing move of transforming into a weapon."
"And the realm has broken through two levels in a row. My mana, soul, body strength, and Taoist power have all doubled."
"With my current strength, apart from Yuwentai, I probably have no opponent in the foundation building period..."
Zhang Yao felt much relieved when he thought of this.
Strength is always the basis of everything. With his current combat power, even if he collides with the ancestor of Jindan, he has a certain degree of assurance of escaping.
"It's been almost three years, and I don't know what's going on in Dali..."
Although Zhang Yao was thinking this, he had no intention of turning back.
After re-practicing the Five Spirits Divine General Talisman, he began to practice the Luolu Soul Divine Light and several other auxiliary techniques collected over the years, including the Earth-Escape technique he had previously used.
It would take at least several decades to master all these foundation-building techniques, and he had plenty of patience to spend.
…………
Within Dali.
In the past three years, the trend in Dali's world of immortality has gradually become more and more impetuous.
The news that the Five Elements Secret Realm is about to be opened is no longer a secret. It is spreading more and more widely in Dali, causing countless waves.
Many second-rate forces have tacitly stopped their disputes and are waiting for the gluttonous feast to be opened in the Five Elements Secret Realm.
And in Tianbaolou headquarters in Qianzhou:
"It's almost time..."
Yu Wentai, dressed in a mysterious robe, walked out of the darkroom with a look of satisfaction.
"Qian Le's training is going very smoothly, even faster than I expected."
"Within three years at most, he should break through to the completion of foundation building and become qualified to perform blood sacrifices and melt souls..."
Thinking of this, he couldn't help showing a trace of regret:
"It is said that in the Wei Kingdom where Qian Le was born, there was a Qi-refining monk who was more suitable as a realm-breaker. He was born with a powerful soul and also practiced mortal martial arts. He is really a talent."
"It's a pity that the person who was doing the work at that time was a complete loser. With the help of the dignified foundation-building monks and the leaders of the local aristocratic families, he was able to make people escape under their noses..."
He still feels very regretful and angry when he thinks about this incident.
This Qian Le's qualifications are actually very average, just barely qualified. If he had been replaced by that Qi Refining monk, he might have been able to practice to the perfection of foundation building twenty years earlier.
If that was the case, then his plan should have been completed long ago, and he would not have to wait until now, until his life span is almost exhausted.
"Forget it, if you miss it, you will still miss it."
"It's been too long. That Qi Refining monk has probably died of old age long ago. There's no point in feeling sorry for him..."
Yuwentai returned to the top floor and sat alone in the hall, silent.
"And that Qingxu master from the GCC."
"The origin of this person is unpredictable. Even Tianbao Tower cannot find out. He is probably not from Dali."
"However, no matter what his background is, since he has practiced the Wanhuadu Tianzhen Sutra, it can be regarded as a big unexpected surprise."
"Even though it can't be used for blood sacrifices to melt souls, it can still be of great use in the secret realm..."
Thinking of this, he raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile:
"Just in time, there's not much time left."
"It's time to go find this guy and have a formal showdown with him. I hope he is a person who understands promotion..."
Three days later.
Fangzhou, in the Cangjiang Water Palace.
Yu Wentai was wearing a mysterious robe, walking inside the water palace with his hands behind his hands, admiring the scenery of the Crystal Palace.
The Qi Refining disciples patrolling back and forth, and even the Foundation Establishment Master who happened to pass by, turned a blind eye to him.
Not even the powerful formations covering the entire water palace and the layers of guards patrolling the Cangjiang River issued any warning.
"This guy is lucky enough to be able to get a copy of Kunyuan Spiritual Liquid."
Yuwentai looked leisurely and was still thinking about the goal of his trip while roaming.
"But that's fine. The stronger he is, the more helpful he will be to me."
He obviously had not considered the scenario where Master Qingxu would reject him.
He is not good at persuading others, but he can often offer prices that others cannot refuse.
Soon, Yuwentai came to the deepest part of the water mansion, which was the cave of the GCC leader.
This is the center of the entire Shuifu formation. Various protective and alarm formations are layered one after another, densely stacked.
Since Master Qingxu has been in seclusion for a long time, all the formations have been activated. Even Peng Yuexian, who is temporarily in charge of the GCC, is not qualified to enter.
But none of this can stop Yuwentai.
"Bah..."
With an inaudible sound, Yuwentai's body glowed with five-color brilliance, and he walked straight into the formation.
Wherever the five-color brilliance passed, he seemed to be covered with a layer of extremely smooth fish skin, automatically 'sliding' through layers of formation restrictions without causing any alarm.
finally--
Yuwentai used a small wall penetration technique to easily penetrate the door and enter the cave.
"Um?"
After entering the cave, Yuwentai realized something was wrong.
The entire cave was empty, without any breath of living people. He checked it carefully several times and found nothing.
"That person is not in his cave?"
Yuwentai stood in the quiet room, looking a little ugly.
"Then where did he go?"
As a dignified leader of the GCC, why would he leave his home base for no reason?
Not to mention, he had just swallowed and refined the Kunyuan Spiritual Liquid. It was the time when he most needed to retreat and surrender his magic power. What place was safer than his own nest?
"Unless...he has something he has to do, and this matter is even more important than consolidating his realm. He can't see the light yet and has to hide it from others."
"Or maybe he felt that he was in great danger, so he abandoned his nest and foundation and secretly escaped..."
Yu Wentai's mind went through all kinds of possibilities in an instant, and his eyebrows could not help but become solemn.
"Could he... have noticed something?"
He hadn't thought about it at first, but the other party's mysterious disappearance made him instantly alert.
The other party is also a practitioner of the "Wanhuadu Tianzhen Sutra" and keeps it secret very well. He must be highly sensitive to the Five Elements Secret Realm, the Battle of the Five Sects and other related matters.
In this case, it is not impossible for the other party to really notice something abnormal through the contact with him, the gift of dragon carp essence and blood, and the communication with the Haihe master of Fuhai Sect.
There is no impermeable wall in the world, and he never thinks that there is no smart person except himself.
The most crucial point is--
His plan has been planned for so many years, and it has reached the final moment to determine the outcome. There is no room for any unexpected situation, and any possibility will be killed in advance!
As for Qingxu Zhenren's identity as the leader of the Haihe Association, as well as his previous close contact with Haihe Zhenren, if he really wanted to commit sabotage, it would definitely be enough to pose a threat to his plan.
"I thought I was just a pawn on the chessboard, but I didn't expect that I could become the winner..."
Yuwentai squinted his eyes, and the expression on his face gradually turned cold:
"I'd rather kill the wrong person than let him go!"
"If I really have wronged you, I can only blame you on your bad luck."
As soon as he thought of this, Yu Wentai immediately mobilized his magic power, performed a series of mysterious Taoist techniques, and began to trace the remaining traces in the cave.
He performed seven or eight different Taoist methods one after another, some of which were even superior methods that other Ji Zhunzhen Masters had never heard of or seen before.
"In the closed environment, there is no obvious fluctuation in spiritual energy, which proves that it did not escape recently."
"... He didn't leave through the secret treasure. It seems that he doesn't have as big a background as I thought."
"...Looking at the traces of the formation center, it seems that it has been running away for almost three years..."
"Huh? Found it! It turns out he escaped by hiding!"
Yuwentai's expression changed, and he finally caught a key clue.
Many people don't know that the movement of mountains, rivers and earth's veins has its own rules. If you escape from the earth, the abnormal traces in the soil strata can remain for many years.
It's just that most Taoist and magic spells cannot even detect such abnormal traces, let alone track them.
But in front of the mysterious Taoist techniques mastered by Yu Wentai, this trace is as conspicuous as a firefly in the dark night and can be traced all the way.
"Since you didn't choose to strike first, you can't run away!"
Yuwentai's expression was cold, and murderous intent was already filling his heart.
His figure moved slightly, and his whole body also started to use the escape method, and followed the traces.
"I just want to see where you will run to..."
