Chapter 159: Guarding the Sea of Blood
The fatigue is mental.
Speaking of which, in this battle, from the time Zhou Tian Xuangang's formation was broken to Han Yi's return to the courtyard, the time dimension was less than an hour.
But during this period, the biggest and most important thing happened to Han Yi since his time travel.
A series of changes made his mood go up and down, which was countless times more thrilling than riding a roller coaster.
From confusion, to despair, to loss, to helplessness, and finally at the lowest point of helplessness, ecstasy suddenly emerged, and in the ecstasy, there was rising anger.
Complex changes in emotions are what lead to mental exhaustion.
And this feeling of exhaustion is one of the strongest emotions that Han Yi has felt since traveling through time.
In a quiet room.
Han Yi closed his eyes, and his mind sank into the space of the sea of consciousness. His soul opened his eyes, and then, a soul tower more than a foot high appeared above his head.
The soul tower dissipated, and the soul flashed, transforming into a soul tower as tall as a person.
Since the nine-layer soul tower was built as the foundation, the soul tower has been integrated into the soul, and the soul is the soul tower.
At this moment, the reason why Han Yi carefully understood the secrets of the Nine-Layered Soul Tower was because of Yuan Shun.
When he was building the foundation, Han Yi appeared. At first, Han Yi thought that Yuan Shun was going to seize his soul tower, but then Yuan Shun returned to Xuandan Peak after saying a few words.
Today, Yuan Shun broke through the peak and became the true king in the heavenly tribulation.
This made Han Yi even more curious about the soul palace inheritance of the Nine Layers Soul Tower.
But what Han Yi could comprehend was the soul tower itself and the soul technique comprehended by the first-level queen of heaven.
Soul Technique·Five Decline of Divine Soul.
This soul technique killed Tianhun Sect monk Yu Ming outside Hongluan City and directly saved his life.
Other than that, there are no other abnormalities.
As for the first heaven of the soul tower, Han Yi initially thought that by condensing the first heaven, he could open the door of the soul tower and enter the soul tower. After all, judging from this form, it should be easy to condense the entity. Can push the door open and enter.
Soul Tower, Soul Tower, since it is a tower, it means that you can enter it.
Perhaps, after entering, you can figure out the true face of the Soul Tower.
However, since it condensed into the first heaven, he pushed open the door of the first heaven of the Soul Tower countless times, but found nothing.
The door of this soul tower was like a decoration, blocking him out.
After a while.
The soul tower changed and transformed into the divine soul form again. Han Yi's mind returned to the outside world and he opened his eyes.
"Great Qin Soul Palace, Nine Layer Soul Tower, First Class Immortal Foundation, Yuan Shun, married baby."
Among them, Han Yi vaguely guessed some key point, but he was not sure. After all, it involved Yuan Shun's birth, and he might have only seen the surface, not how deeply.
After temporarily letting go of the matter of the Nine Layer Soul Tower and Yuan Shun having a baby.
Han Yi reviewed this battle from beginning to end.
In the end, there was only one conclusion. He was still too weak. He was so weak that he couldn't even catch a broken magic weapon in the Nascent Soul stage.
The road to immortality is long and the responsibilities are long and arduous.
on the other hand.
After this time, the leader of the Blood God Sect died in the battle, and most of the other Golden Core Stages also perished. Even if they could really escape, Yuan Shun should have killed most of them when he was chasing them, and the rest should not be a concern.
Although the leader of the Tianhun Sect escaped, the Tianhun Sect would never dare to provoke him. In fact, he would even be worried about Yuan Shun coming to the Tianhun Sect and destroying the Tianhun Sect.
As for the other Jindan monks who followed closely behind and were in the dark, whether they were from other sects, cultivating families, or casual cultivators, their death was in vain. Not only did they not dare to pursue the case, but they also worried about the revenge of the Xuandan Sect.
After all, today's Xuandan Sect has broken away from the ordinary Jindan Sect and has become a major sect under the three major sects, the same as the seven sects with Yuanying Stage in charge.
In other words, since then, there has been a new Yuanying Stage sect in Shuzhou.
And this also means that Han Yi can practice with peace of mind in the future.
This time, Han Yi decided to wait until the golden elixir stage before going out.
In Han Yi's mind, he began to plan how to practice next.
The Lihuo Sword Technique is still just a proficient one, it has not yet reached its peak, so it needs to be done first.
Next, there is the Nine Layer Soul Tower and the Sword Controlling Technique, Lingxu Finger.
No, in addition to this, you also need to find one or two spells to practice to enhance your own foundation.
In addition, we must also consider the issue of refining the Foundation Building Pill...
Han Yi's thoughts were racing, and he spent a cup of tea before forcing himself to calm down.
No matter what you do next, the current thing is to practice.
Having just entered the early stage of foundation building, his cultivation level was very stable at the soul level, but in terms of mana, it was still lacking.
In the eighty-eight-fold spiritual sea, mana has not completely filled the spiritual sea. It is not that Han Yi has not absorbed enough spiritual energy, but that the growth of mana needs to be gradual.
Han Yi took out the spirit stone and started practicing.
The next day.
Han Yi walked out of the courtyard and walked in Qinglong Peak. He saw the inner disciples coming in and out, walking with unprecedented ease. There were different expressions on these people's faces, ranging from sadness to joy.
Along the way.
Some of the disciples passing by called him Senior Brother Han Yi, and some called him Junior Brother, but no one called him Elder or Senior Uncle.
Han Yi's foundation building time was so short that the sect actually had no time to announce that he had successfully established the foundation and was ranked as an elder. Even the Qinglong Palace did not have his exclusive elder quiet room.
During yesterday's disaster, Han Yi did not lean forward, but saw that the mountain gate was broken, and was ready to escape. Therefore, most of the inner disciples did not know that he had already established the foundation.
Han Yi was not angry either, he never cared about these false reputations.
And the reason why he went out early in the morning was because Gu Yu sent someone to find him and asked him to go to Qinglong Palace to attend the elders' meeting in the morning.
When he arrived at Qinglong Palace and walked into the elders' meeting room, Han Yi saw Gu Yu with a pale face.
"Senior Brother Gu." Han Yi called out.
Gu Yu raised his head, and a light flashed in his eyes.
"Junior Brother Han is here, sit down."
Han Yi sat down, Gu Yu's face straightened, and his tone was solemn: "Speaking of which, outside Hongluan City, it was Junior Brother Han who saved my life, no, two lives. Gu Yu will remember this kindness in his heart. Junior Brother Han, if you have any instructions in the future, just tell me."
Han Yi shook his head: "Senior Brother Gu, you are too polite. That was the sect's mission. Helping each other is our mission. You don't need to thank me."
Gu Yu shook his head: "No, the mission is the mission. You saved me, and it is also a fact. I recognize this clearly."
Han Yi was stubborn, so he stopped arguing. He changed his tone and asked:
"By the way, Senior Brother Gu, how is the sect now?"
Gu Yu knew what Han Yi meant, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Good, very good, very good."
Han Yi sat up straight. He came out today to inquire about the post-war situation.
Speaking of which, he didn't spend much time on networking. As usual, if he wanted to know something, he had to find someone he knew to find out.
Before this, he mostly looked for He Fangwei from Jiulong Store.
Not enough. Now that he has been promoted to the Foundation Establishment Stage, there are some information that cannot be obtained by the Qi Training Stage. Only the elders who are also in the Foundation Establishment Stage can know more and more comprehensively.
After Gu Yu's narration, Han Yi finally understood all kinds of things after the war.
For him, the most important sentence is that the Xuandan Sect is safe.
This is natural.
Of course, what Gu Yu said was different from Han Yi's own guess.
The follow-up of yesterday's battle was also very simple.
Almost all the high-level combat forces of the Blood God Sect and the Heavenly Soul Sect died. Except for the leader of the Heavenly Soul Sect who escaped and disappeared, only four Jindan escaped.
In this battle, ten Jindans who came to attack died and five escaped.
As for the foundation-building stage, after the war, more than 170 people set foot in the gate of Xuandan Sect, and in the end, only less than 30 escaped alive.
There are countless people in the Qi training stage.
To describe it in two words, it is "great victory".
"That's great. After this time, the status of my Xuandan Sect has been greatly improved, and I can practice with peace of mind in the future." Han Yi smiled.
"However." Gu Yu changed his tone, his eyes showing sadness.
"But after this battle, our Xuandan Sect also suffered heavy losses."
"Among the nine supreme elders, only Elder Zhuge, Elder Qin, Elder Si Hong, and Elder Huo Ming survived, and five elders died one after another."
"After this battle, our Xuandan Sect was seriously injured. It is difficult for the foundation-building and golden elixir cultivators to recover within a hundred years."
"Below the golden elixir stage, before this, there were a total of 113 foundation-building elders in the sect. According to yesterday's calculation, only 47 survived."
"Oh, that's not right. What I just said does not include you, Junior Brother Han. You are the latest to be promoted, and the sect has not officially established you as an elder."
After speaking, Gu Yu was silent, and Han Yi stopped talking.
One hundred and thirteen foundation-building elders, only 47 survived in the end, and the probability of survival was less than 50%.
Only four of the nine supreme elders survived.
After this battle, the Xuandan Sect lost more than half of its high-level combat power.
However, the sect master Yuan Shun has already formed a Nascent Soul stage, and the sects with a Nascent Soul stage in charge are completely different from the sects without a Nascent Soul stage in charge.
In terms of power, in addition to the Dagan Immortal Kingdom, Shuzhou is one of the three major sects, the Nandou Palace located in the southernmost part of Shuzhou, followed by two sects with Nascent Soul stage.
Tianyi Sect and Wanfa Sect.
And now, the Xuandan Sect needs to be added.
In other words, the Xuandan Sect is second only to Dagan and Nandou Palace in Shuzhou, and it is the kind that can walk sideways without jumping too much.
After a while.
People came into the elders' meeting room one after another. Some were relatively enthusiastic and came up to chat, while some, due to their personality, had a cold face. They just greeted and then found a seat to sit down and close their eyes to rest.
In the end, only seven cultivators appeared.
Among them, Han Yi did not see An Xin's figure. Yesterday's battle was too chaotic, and he didn't know who survived and who died, because in the fight, the foundation-building cultivators who were defeated might not even have corpses.
However, Han Yi was slightly relieved that Bai Wanqing was one of the survivors, and judging from her situation, she had actually broken through to the middle stage of foundation building in this battle, so Han Yi was naturally happy for her.
Bai Wanqing noticed Han Yi's gaze and looked over at him, and both nodded in greeting.
Qinglong Palace, in the elders' meeting room.
Late stage of foundation building: Shen Ping, Nie Shuo.
Middle stage of foundation building: Bai Wanqing, Gu Ru
Early stage of foundation building: Gu Yu, Han Yi, Wei Hongxuan.
Only these seven people.
Then, Shen Ping stood up and was about to speak, but paused, as if he heard someone else's telepathic voice transmission, and his eyes swept over the other six people: "The sect master has a temporary order to summon us to go to Xuandan Peak for a meeting, let's go."
Then, he walked out of Qinglong Palace, flew up with a flying device, and landed on Xuandan Peak first.
The other six people followed closely behind.
What surprised Han Yi was that even though the Zhoutian Xuan Gang Formation had not been repaired and the mountain protection formations of many inner and outer peaks had dissipated, the fog outside the Xuandan Peak was still covered tightly.
There must be some big secret in this, Han Yi had this thought in his mind.
However, no matter what the secret was, he was not interested.
Now, the crisis that had shrouded the Xuandan Sect for so many years had dissipated, and Han Yi could finally calm down and practice quietly, spending time to improve his proficiency.
This was what he wanted most.
The fog silently cracked open, and everyone fell and walked into the Xuandan Hall. There was no Supreme Elder sitting in the front hall of the hall, and everyone walked forward.
This was not the first time Han Yi stepped into the Xuandan Hall. When Yuan Shun asked him to go to the Shanhai Juxianhui before, he summoned him to the Xuandan Hall. However, he was still at the ninth level of Qi training at that time. After passing through the front hall of the hall, he walked into a room in the side hall.
This time, he was an elder. After walking through the front hall, he went straight into the back hall. This back hall was the elders' meeting hall, and it was the elders' meeting hall for the entire sect.
For all the important matters of the sect, the elders' meeting would be held here to decide the matters.
After entering the meeting hall, Shen Ping sat in the front, Gu Yu sat in the back, and Han Yi sat with Gu Yu.
After a while, other inner peak elders arrived one after another and sat down. Han Yi saw clearly that the cultivators in the late stage of foundation building sat in the front, the cultivators in the middle stage of foundation building sat in the middle, and the cultivators in the early stage of foundation building sat in the back.
Position also represents strength.
After a while.
The eight inner peaks and many outer peak masters were all present.
Although Gu Yu said before that only 47 foundation building cultivators survived, Han Yi's heart sank when he saw all the cultivators who appeared.
Many familiar faces that he had met before were not here. What this meant was self-evident.
Then.
Several figures walked in from outside the meeting room.
Among them, there was not only Yuan Shun, but also the few remaining supreme elders of the sect.
Zhuge Wuyou, Qin Wuxian, Huo Ming.
Among them, Qin Wuxian was injured, but it was only a minor injury and was not a big deal.
Everyone sat down, and Yuan Shun spoke.
"Elder Si Hong is too seriously injured to leave the retreat. Except for him, all the cultivators above the foundation-building stage of Xuandan Sect have arrived."
The elder Si Hong mentioned by Yuan Shun refers to the only female cultivator among the supreme elders, Si Hongxue.
Before this, Si Hongxue was attacked by the Jindan stage cultivators of Tianhun Sect and Xueshen Sect outside, and was seriously injured and fled back to the sect.
At this moment, Yuan Shun said that he was seriously injured and could not even attend the sect meeting. The degree of serious injury must be beyond everyone's imagination, only slightly less than Mu Jianxu's closed-door retreat.
"Today, the elders' meeting is held. There are two main topics."
"The first one is about the reconstruction of the sect. Please give us your suggestions."
"The second one is about the follow-up of the Blood God Sect. I need your help."
As soon as the voice fell.
Qin Wuxian spoke first: "The sect has lost many supreme elders and foundation-building cultivators this time. Among them, the immortal cultivation resources allocated to them need to be redistributed."
"The main purpose of the allocation of immortal cultivation resources is to enable you to get more resources and speed up your cultivation. If there is hope of breaking through the Golden Core Stage, the sect will definitely do its best to cultivate."
"In addition, there are Qi training cultivators. The sect is ready to open the sect's secret library again. Based on the ranking of the Earth List, the foundation-building pills will be allocated again. In a short period of time, more foundation-building cultivators will emerge in the sect."
"Of course, how to grasp the degree of this issue requires your suggestions."
Han Yi understood in his heart.
Xuandan Sect still has a sense of crisis. It doesn't mean that they can rest easy just because the Blood God Sect and the Heavenly Soul Sect were repelled this time. In the world of immortal cultivation, only when one is strong, and strong in all aspects, can a good cycle be formed.
Han Yi naturally strongly supports this idea of the sect.
He looked at Qin Wuxian, and his heart moved. Before this, Han Yi always felt that there must be a master among the high-level leaders of the sect, so that many policies could emerge continuously. Could that master be Qin Wuxian?
He didn't have much contact with this elder. The only time he met him was when he accepted the inheritance of the Nine-Layer Soul Tower.
The inheritance of the Nine-Layer Soul Tower gave him a first-class immortal foundation, and it also allowed Yuan Shun to glimpse the opportunity to form an infant, and finally saved the Xuandan Sect.
The cause and effect of this is intriguing.
In the meeting hall, after Qin Wuxian took the lead, more cultivators began to offer suggestions and suggestions with high enthusiasm.
Han Yi, who was sitting in the last row, did not want to participate, because he knew that he could not manage the sect from a management role. He had a clear understanding of himself.
After a while.
Everyone set the tone for reconstruction. The name was very direct, called the reconstruction policy. Among them, there were nine items, involving inner and outer peaks, foundation building, and Jindan cultivators, covering money, companions, law, and land.
The first topic was over, and Yuan Shun continued: "Next, it is the second topic of today."
At this point, Yuan Shun paused for a rare moment. Everyone in the conference room looked at him, knowing that what could make him pause must be extraordinary.
However, Yuan Shun did not directly discuss the Blood God Sect, but talked about yesterday's events.
"Before discussing the follow-up of the Blood God Sect, I need to tell you one thing."
Yuan Shun's face was solemn and helpless.
"Yesterday, I chased the invading Jindan all the way to Zhenbei City. Outside the Immortal City, I killed the deputy leader of the Blood God Sect under the Immortal City."
"Then, in the Immortal City, the Marquis of Zhenbei Da Gan appeared. He asked me the details of yesterday's battle with his spiritual sense."
"I told him the truth. He was silent for a moment and then told me one thing."
"According to the requirements of the Da Gan Immortal Kingdom, the Blood God Sect guards the Blood Sea. This is the responsibility of the Blood God Sect and the regulations of the Da Gan Immortal Kingdom. Even if the Blood God Sect wants to move away, it is impossible without the permission of the Da Gan Emperor."
"And if there are other sects that destroy the Blood God Sect, then this sect will need to take over and guard the Blood Sea."
Speaking of this, Yuan Shun's tone was somewhat helpless.
The other supreme elders did not change their expressions, because they had already known it before.
The Foundation Establishment cultivators who sat down were already dumbfounded.
Han Yi, who was sitting at the end, was even more trembling, and a sense of foreboding suddenly emerged in his heart.
"That's right. The leader of the Blood God Sect, Jiang Yichuan, died in the Xuan Dan Sect. All the Jindan-stage cultivators of the sect died. There were also not many foundation-building cultivators who could escape. This sect is already in name only."
"If nothing unexpected happened, the Blood God Sect's mountain gate on the edge of the Blood Sea was probably in chaos since yesterday, and the cultivators inside should have fled in all directions."
"There are many monsters in the Blood Sea. If we ignore it for a long time, it is easy to cause a demonic disaster. We urgently need to send people from the Xuan Dan Sect to guard it."
Yuan Shun added a few more words. Yesterday, after he returned, Han Yi saw that his face was not right. This was the reason.
"But, but the Blood God Sect offended our Xuan Dan Sect first. It is only natural for our Xuan Dan Sect to destroy it. How can it be related to the Blood Sea?"
"This big thing is a bit too much."
The one who spoke was an elder in the late foundation-building stage of Zhurong Peak. His name was Li Wenbin. His eyes were filled with suppressed anger, and he was a hot-tempered person at first glance.
Yuan Shun shook his head.
"This matter has been announced to me by the Marquis of Zhenbei, and there is no reason to argue."
"My Xuandan Sect has to accept it even if we don't want to."
"Everyone, the first topic just now is that the sect urgently needs more foundation-building cultivators to emerge, which is also due to the need for the second topic."
"The blood sea can't wait, and we can't delay it either."
