Chapter 196 True Lord’s Fear
The seven female cultivators looked at Dou Yu, who looked calm, and then at Han Yi, who was silent. For a moment, they couldn't tell the truth from the false.
Among them, Dou Yu's confidence, Han Yi's temperament and the sword on his back made it impossible for them to make a simple conclusion.
And Han Yi, who was confused for a moment, also came back to his senses. With just a thought, he knew what Dou Yu was playing.
"Fellow Daoist Dou, return the spirit stone to the fellow Daoists."
"I, Han, don't accept followers."
Han Yi was really speechless. Dou Yu was ruining his reputation. His reputation didn't matter, but this time, he came out on behalf of Xuandan Sect and Xuanxian Pavilion, and he couldn't delay what Qin Wuxian and Liu Ruyan had told him.
This guy was looking for death. If it was any other cultivator with a bad temper, he would have killed him with a sword.
Dou Yu's face changed, and the spirit stone he got flew away. How could it be possible? He looked at Han Yi and was about to speak, and his eyes met Han Yi's.
Suddenly.
A chill that penetrated deep into his bones suddenly emerged on his soul. In just a moment, he was sweating profusely, as if he had walked through the gates of hell.
In Han Yi's eyes, a pressure that made his soul tremble suddenly emerged, and this pressure was only directed at him, as if he saw a sea of blood and corpses.
"Return, return, wait, I return the money."
Dou Yu dared not hesitate any longer and returned the spirit stones to the seven female cultivators.
The seven female cultivators took the spirit stones and looked at Han Yi, but suddenly felt that what Dou Yu had said just now was true. The temperament of the cultivator in front of them was indeed not ordinary, and it was overlapped with Han Yi, who won the Chixiao Sword Sect Ding Jiansheng with a sword in the Galaxy Square.
However, Han Yi said to his face that he did not need followers, even if they wanted to spend money, they could not do it, so they had to give Dou Yu a fierce look and left angrily.
"Fellow Daoist Dou, come with me to the immortal boat."
A divine consciousness entered Dou Yu's mind as he was about to sneak away, causing him to pause and turn around. Although he had a flattering smile on his face, it was uglier than crying.
Han Yi sat down without saying anything, and Dou Yu dared not escape again.
He now knew that the cultivator in front of him might indeed be a cultivator on the Ganlong list.
But he did not see him in the Galaxy Square.
What does this mean?
This means that the other party has really changed his breath and appearance, which indirectly means that someone may really be chasing him, or he is deliberately hiding from someone.
Could it be that he really guessed it right by accident?
This crow's mouth, wouldn't be so unlucky?
What he is most worried about now is that the other party is really Han Yi, the ninth Ganlong. If it is true, then he will really run into the gun.
However, what made him feel relieved was that an hour later, the immortal boat set off. It took ten days to reach the eighth level of the immortal court, Andingfang. Along the way, Han Yi did not say a word, and he did not dare to speak, let alone escape, because he was afraid of death.
After getting off the immortal boat, Han Yi left without even looking at Dou Yu, which made Dou Yu completely relieved.
But for the sake of safety, he found an inn in Andingfang and hid for three months before daring to leave.
On the other side.
Han Yi, who left Andingfang, soared into the sky, his face changed again, released the immortal boat, and left Andingfang.
For Dou Yu, this matter was insignificant to him, and it was just a small episode.
When it comes to life and death, he is not a generous person.
But such a small matter is far from the point where he gets angry and kills people.
Nothing happened along the way.
After two hours, he finally returned to the Wanxian Pavilion station in Nanliangfang, the eighth level of the immortal court.
As soon as he returned to the station, a divine consciousness transmitted a voice.
"Han Yi, ahem..., come to the fourth floor of Wanxian Pavilion." Qin Wuxian's voice revealed a sense of fatigue.
Han Yi's heart tightened. He had just experienced a siege by the Nandou Palace. At this moment, Qin Wuxian called him forward, and his tone sounded tired, which made Han Yi feel uneasy.
Han Yi flew up on his sword and went straight to the fourth floor of Xuanxian Pavilion.
Xuanxian Pavilion has four floors. It is comparable to Wanxian Pavilion and also borrows the settings of larger businesses in the Great Qin Immortal Kingdom. However, currently only the first three floors are open for business, serving Qi training, foundation building, and Jindan cultivators respectively, and the fourth floor is a private plot.
When he saw Qin Wuxian, Han Yi almost didn't recognize him. It was really his face that was extremely bad. His face was pale and his pupils were gray.
When he looked into Qin Wuxian's gray pupils, Han Yi couldn't help but tremble in his heart and his pupils shrank.
"Uncle Qin, what injury did you suffer? Why is this happening?"
Qin Wuxian waved his hand and motioned Han Yi to sit down.
"Hey, don't worry, I'm not going to die yet."
"I met an old enemy and got tricked, but I'm not going to die yet."
Qin Wuxian's gray pupils were indeed scary, but since he said so, Han Yi was relieved.
On the real person list, Qin Wuxian ranked 88th. It goes without saying that the old enemy who could seriously injure Qin Wuxian is a cultivator in the late Jindan period, and his ranking must be above him.
"Tell me, what happened at the Tianji Feast?"
Qin Wuxian looked at Han Yi. Han Yi thought about it and told the truth for a quarter of an hour, explaining everything in detail.
"Not bad, not bad, you have completed your mission this time and earned a name for the Xuandan Sect. Next, the business of Xuanxian Pavilion should improve."
"But it's not enough."
"In addition, since you have come across the matter of Master Xuehe, I will tell you the truth in advance. After all, with your current strength, you are also able to understand the inside story."
"Fellow Daoist Yuxin is right. Jiang Jiuge is Jiang Yichuan's son."
Speaking of this, Qin Wuxian's tone became serious.
"We only learned about this two years ago, and it was through the Taixu Sect's channel, not the Xuandan Sect's own channel."
"Speaking of which, Master Yuxin is right. The foundation of the Xuandan Sect is still too weak."
"In the past two years, Master Yuan has secretly walked out of the Xuandan Sect several times, and with a few of us, he wanted to lure Jiang Jiuge out, but to no avail."
"We didn't expect Jiang Jiuge to be so patient."
"Part of the hidden dangers facing the Xuandan Sect now comes from Jiang Jiuge."
Han Yi raised his eyebrows: "Part?"
Qin Wuxian nodded, and there was a certain emotion flowing in his gray pupils.
"That's right. Jiang Jiuge is just one person after all. Even if the Nandou Palace is behind him, as long as he doesn't become a true lord, he can't pose a real threat to the Xuandan Sect."
"In addition to Jiang Jiuge, the Xuandan Sect is more severely oppressed by other Yuanying Sects."
"The most important one is naturally the sects in Shuzhou."
Speaking of this, Qin Wuxian paused, and Han Yi's mind was full of thoughts.
The sects in Shuzhou that can affect the Xuandan Sect should only be the Nandou Palace, Wanfa Sect and Tianyi Sect.
Excluding Tianyi Sect, Qin Wuxian also said that the Nandou Palace did not pose a real threat, so the answer is obvious.
Wanfa Sect.
One of the most powerful Yuanying Sects in Shuzhou.
Wanfa Sect is located in the southeast of Shuzhou, occupying the richest and most prosperous area except Shudu. There is a sixth-level spiritual vein and two fifth-level spiritual veins in the sect. There are two true lords in Wanfa Sect, just like Tianyi Sect.
However, Tianyi Sect is keen on the dispute of immortal philosophy. Tianyi Zhenjun and Tianxin Zhenjun have different philosophies and trip each other up. There are only about 100 cultivators in the entire sect, and they often commit suicide. The entire Dagan immortal cultivation world does not like them.
But Wanfa Sect is different.
This sect studies all dharmas and embraces all rivers. The number of disciples in the sect is ten times that of Xuandan Sect. Han Yi has read the records of Wanfa Sect. Its inner disciples are tens of thousands, and its outer disciples are tens of millions. There are 30 Jindan elders in the sect, and as many as 300 foundation-building deacons.
This is a real big sect in Shuzhou, second only to Nandou Palace, one of the three major sects in Dagan.
"Wanfa Sect." Han Yi's tone sank. It was not a question, but an affirmation.
Qin Wuxian nodded: "That's right."
"There are only so many resources in the world of immortal cultivation, just like a plate. When your fist is bigger and your appetite is better, you need to eat more, so you need to grab food from other people's plates, otherwise you won't be able to eat enough."
"This is the 'competition' for immortal fate. If you don't 'compete', you will always fall behind and be beaten."
"However, in the current situation, the sect is indeed in a 'passive' situation of being beaten."
"This situation cannot be reversed overnight. It will take ten years, dozens of years, or even hundreds of years to improve."
After Qin Wuxian finished speaking, Han Yi already had a heavy sense of crisis in his heart.
However, he changed his mind and understood the sect's policy.
From Yuan Shun's promotion to Yuanying, the destruction of Zongxueshen Sect, and the forced dissolution of Tianhun Sect, whether you are willing to admit it or not, Xuandan Sect is already a Yuanying sect in the eyes of the big cultivators.
In Shuzhou, there were originally only two Yuanying sects, and now there is one more. There will definitely be some competition for the redistribution of interests.
This should be one of the reasons why the resident elders took the initiative to attack and fight for territory.
At this moment, Han Yi had a better understanding of the sect's policies in recent years.
Every decision made by the sect is not aimless, but has far-reaching significance. It has a corresponding relationship with other policies and the difficulties faced by the sect, and is not completely independent.
After thinking this through, Han Yi looked up at Qin Wuxian: "Uncle Qin, what should we do next?"
Qin Wuxian shook his head: "Take it slow. As long as Sect Master Yuan is still here, my Xuandan Sect is the Yuanying sect. Other Yuanying sects will be cautious and dare not openly provoke."
"This is our opportunity for development."
He looked at Han Yi and knew that Han Yi had no interest in managing the sect and was not good at it, so he smiled, and a ray of hope burst out from his gray pupils.
"Of course, you don't need to worry about these."
"Your key task is to practice and grow up as quickly as possible."
After a while.
Han Yi left Xuanxian Pavilion and landed in the base behind Xuanxian Pavilion. Looking at Xuanxian Pavilion, his heart was quite uneasy.
From Qin Wuxian's mouth, Han Yi finally confirmed Zhuge Wuyou's worries before.
Strictly speaking, Xuandan Sect looks prosperous on the surface, but there is no way out, and it can even be said to survive in a narrow slit.
However.
As Qin Wuxian said, his most important thing at present is to practice.
Han Yi returned to the innermost practice room, which was blown up before, and it has been repaired in the past twenty days.
In the quiet room.
Han Yi first took out a dagger.
Demon-killing dagger.
Although he killed the two foundation builders of Nandou Divine Palace during this trip, the time was too short and he did not have time to take away the other party's storage ring. The only material gain was this one, which was obtained from the Tianji Monument. Randomly dropped rewards.
After some experiments, Han Yi's eyes became brighter and brighter.
The characteristics of this dagger can be described in two words, namely 'sharp' and 'breaking'. It is sharp beyond imagination. This sharpness is not only reflected in cutting physical objects, but also in cutting objects. On top of the destruction of psychic energy, it is the 'broken spirit'.
Whether it is formations, protective shields inspired by defensive talismans, or offensive attribute spells, even low-level storage bags can be broken open by it.
Holding the dagger, Han Yi remembered that before he reached the ninth level of Qi training, what he was good at was killing enemies with a dagger.
However, with the breakthrough of his strength, the enemies he faced became stronger and stronger, and assassination was no longer his mainstream tactic.
But if you have a magic weapon-level dagger like the Demon-Slaying Dagger, it will still be very effective.
"When I advance to Golden Core, I will definitely find a way to get a set of magic weapon-level daggers." Han Yi had a new idea.
Putting away the demon-slaying dagger, he brought up his proficiency panel, in which his eyes fell on three skills.
[Lingxu Finger (reaching the pinnacle 78/100)]
[Nine Layers of Soul Tower (reaching the pinnacle 96/100)]
[Lihuo Sword Technique (reaching the pinnacle 69/100)]
These three skills are the skills that he will continue to improve next.
Prior to this, the Sword Control Technique, the Light Body Technique, the Wind Wall Technique, and the Fire Shield Technique had all broken through and returned to their true nature. The Fire Shield Technique and the Wind Wall Technique had even been initially integrated into the Wind and Fire Shield. Its defensive capabilities were definitely one plus one. Much more than two cases.
The main combat spells, body skills, and defense are all there.
Next, the Nine Layer Soul Tower also needs to be improved. This inheritance has condensed into two layers of heaven. It is not far away from returning to nature. The Lihuo Sword Technique and Lingxu Finger serve as a supplement to the sword control skills, especially the Lihuo Sword. The secret is even more in Han Yi's core plan.
Nine-fold Soul Tower, Lihuo Sword Technique, and Lingxu Finger, this is the order of Han Yi's training.
In the quiet room, the consciousness sank into the space of the sea of consciousness. According to past habits, Han Yi's soul first checked the black beads on the top of the sea of consciousness. He found that there was nothing abnormal and could not do anything about it, so he turned his attention to the soul. among.
The divine soul transformed from the soul tower into the appearance of Han Yi. This was the normal state of the divine soul. On top of the divine soul, another one-foot-tall illusory divine tower emerged. The bottom two floors of the divine tower had solidified.
In Han Yi's mind, the two soul arts he obtained when condensing these two heavens emerged.
The first level of heaven, the soul technique and the five declines of the soul.
The second heaven, soul magic·soul seizing.
Han Yi has used the first soul technique many times on the battlefield, but Han Yi has never used the second soul technique. The main reason is that this soul-stealing technique is a soul-stealing technique. Unless it is absolutely necessary, he will not know it. cast.
Han Yi sat cross-legged and began to absorb the gray-white air at the edge of the sea of consciousness. As if he was enlightened, he was gradually pulled from the top of his head and fell into his soul.
When Han Yi pulled the gray energy, the black bead at the top of the sea of consciousness shook slightly, as if it had moved, but no other abnormalities were seen.
This kind of weak vibration would appear every time Han Yi practiced the Nine Layer Soul Tower. At first, Han Yi would stop and check carefully. After many times, he had become accustomed to it.
…
When Han Yi returned to the Xuanxian Pavilion in Nanliangfang and retreated for more than half a month, there was an endless palace located in a mountain range in the southwest of Shuzhou, extremely far away from Qiandu.
This mountain range is called Nandou Mountains, and this sect is one of the three major sects of Daqian, Nandou Shrine.
The three major sects of Daqian are called the three major sects because these three sects are not ordinary Yuanying sects, because they have once had the power to transform into gods, and they have a much stronger foundation than ordinary Yuanying sects. , and even use the sect's foundation to compete with the general power of transforming gods.
A Tianfu Immortal Boat sailed into the sect from outside the mountain and landed in a palace somewhere.
Jiang Jiuge, with a stern look on his face, put away the immortal boat, arranged for other monks, and walked into the palace.
"Disciple Xuehe, pay homage to the master."
Jiang Jiuge kowtows in greeting. In front of him, at the highest point of the palace, is a Taoist priest, sitting cross-legged on a futon, with fairy aura floating around him.
The Taoist opened his eyes and looked at the blood river, his extremely deep eyes showing a hint of doubt.
"You are hurt."
"No one among the Jindan monks of Xuandan Sect can hurt you. If Yuan Shun takes action, you won't even be able to escape."
"Tell me, what's going on?"
Jiang Jiuge raised his head and told what happened in Daqian Immortal Kingdom.
"Master Yuxin of Baiyu Tower is not weak in strength. Judging from this battle, he should be on par with you."
"If you can be on the real person list, you should have a 30% chance of being promoted to Nascent Soul."
"Since you can't kill him, you don't need to pay attention to him. The owner of Baiyu Tower is not simple. If he really kills Master Yuxin, he will be in trouble. Now is the perfect time."
"As for the monk from Xuandan Sect."
"I was able to use my foundation-building skills to escape Yu Hao's men, and even killed two of them."
"Although Yu Hao is new to Jindan and has exhausted his potential, his fighting skills are not weak."
"Han Yi?"
"I have heard this name more than once."
"More than once?" This time it was Master Xuehe's turn to be surprised.
The person in front of me is one of the nine great True Lords of the Southern Dipper Palace, True Lord Liu Su. Anyone who can enter the True Lord's ear must be extraordinary. I didn't expect that the person named Han Yi could enter the True Lord Liu Su's ear many times.
"The most recent one was naturally the Emperor's birthday celebration. He was rewarded by the Emperor, proving that he has great potential."
"The last time was at the Shanhai Gathering of Immortals. This little guy, as a Qi training cultivator, killed a demon cultivator and ranked fourth in the Qi training chapter of the Demon Killing List. The ranking is not high, but it is not easy to be on the list as a cultivator from a weak sect."
"However, after what you said, this little guy is no longer as simple as Ganlong."
"Shuzhou does not need a second Wanfa Sect."
"If you can't deal with Yuan Shun, it shouldn't be difficult to deal with this little guy."
"As long as you can afford the price, the Black God Tower dares to assassinate even the God Transformation Daojun. A small late foundation building cultivator is not a threat, so why do you need to do it yourself."
Liu Su Zhenjun's words made Jiang Jiuge suddenly wake up.
"That's right. The Black God Building is the largest robbery organization in the Yuheng Realm. It also has killers and assassins. They do things for money. As long as they can afford the price, no matter where Han Yi is, he will die."
"Disciple will do it right away."
Liu Su Zhenjun pressed his hand and said, "Don't worry, this is just a small matter."
"Xuehe, I warned you that if you haven't broken through the Nascent Soul, you must not be exposed in front of the Xuandan Sect, and don't get involved in anything in the Xuandan Sect, because it may be a trap for you."
"Only when you are promoted to the Nascent Soul and become the Supreme Elder of the Nandou Palace, then the sect will naturally come forward for you. After destroying the Xuandan Sect, rebuild the Blood God Sect, you will be the Sect Master."
"This has been decided by the Supreme Elders."
"So, remember, don't be reckless."
"Yuan Shun has a big secret, and there is even a big secret on Xuandan Peak. Don't make decisions on your own and try it rashly."
Jiang Jiuge suddenly frowned and asked tentatively: "Master, what is the secret on Xuandan Peak?"
"As long as there is a will, the sect will directly send three True Lords to descend on Xuandan Sect. I don't believe that the fog can be safe and sound?"
A trace of fear suddenly flashed in the eyes of True Lord Liu Su. This trace of fear was well hidden and was not seen by True Lord Xuehe.
"Safe and sound?"
"Then you are wrong."
"Forget it, these are not what you can understand now, go down."
True Lord Liu Su waved his hand. Seeing that Master was worried and unwilling to talk, Jiang Jiuge did not dare to disturb him and retreated.
After Jiang Jiuge left, Liu Su looked towards the north, as if he had crossed thousands of miles and arrived at Xuandan Peak, trying to see through the fog that had shrouded Xuandan Peak for eighty years, muttering to himself.
"Eighty years have passed, and that scene still scares me."
"Otherwise, why would we need the Blood God Sect, why would we need the Heavenly Soul Sect, and why would we need such a complicated test."
A scene appeared in the mind of Master Liu Su, and his eyes flashed with horror. Then, he extinguished the thoughts in his mind and prevented them from growing into evil thoughts.
