Chapter 231: The Battle for the Top Seat of Tianji Peak
Five years later, Shi Xuan's cave on Tianji Peak.
The Tai Chi diagram is slowly rotating in Shi Xuan's Dantian, constantly absorbing black and white true qi, and exhaling more condensed black and white true qi, as if it is Shi Xuan's second Dantian vortex. This life-defining magic weapon has been perfected in the seventh heaven three years ago. The power of the Yin and Yang Qi to transform all things into chaos is equal to the power of Shi Xuan's spiritual weapon Tianlei Fumo Sword, and it has become the most powerful magic weapon in Shi Xuan's hand again, and its ability to set forbidden formations and defend against attacks is also more powerful.
Shi Xuan found Qingfeng waiting respectfully outside the living room, as if he had something important to report, so he opened his eyes and said lightly: "What does Qingfeng have to tell you?"
Qingfeng hurriedly bowed and said: "Reporting to the master, the chief Mo sent Senior Cangwu to invite you over." Now Qingfeng is the only Taoist boy serving in Shi Xuan's cave. Mingyue has advanced to the out-of-body stage a few years ago, and then participated in the disciple recruitment ceremony and successfully entered the outer sect. However, Qingfeng, the always honest and dull boy, is still stuck in the perfection of nourishing qi. It seems to be his own idea that he will return to the secular world after a few years of breakthrough and enjoy the glory and wealth. Everyone has their own ambitions, and Shi Xuan can't say anything.
After calculating the time, Shi Xuan understood why his master suddenly asked Cangwu to invite him over. He immediately felt the desire to leave. He sighed and said to Qingfeng, "I'll be there right away."
When he got outside, Shi Xuan saw Cangwu. He looked a little unhappy. He had followed Mo Yuan for so many years, but he had not yet been able to break through to the Qi-inducing stage. He had no hope of entering the inner gate. Now Mo Yuan was about to leave this world. At most, he would give him some magic tools and elixirs, but he would never be able to enjoy the other benefits of being a Taoist child of a Jindan master. In addition, he also regarded Mo Yuan as his master. He felt sad and sad, and it was good that he didn't have a dark face.
"Uncle Shi, the master asked you to go over." Cangwu said quickly when he saw Shi Xuan coming out.
Shi Xuan nodded, walked out of the cave, and asked calmly: "Master, have you broken through to the Yin God?"
Cang Wu took two quick steps and followed: "Master broke through a few days ago. After stabilizing his realm, he asked Cang Wu to invite Uncle Master to come over. At the same time, Cang Wu also has to invite all the elders and true disciples in the peak."
"Well, you go by yourself. I still know the way to Master's cave." Shi Xuan joked, trying to adjust his mood, but as soon as he said it, he felt particularly cold. Fortunately, Cang Wu was in a bad mood and didn't notice this. After saying goodbye to Shi Xuan, he hurried to other caves in the peak.
…………
When Shi Xuan entered the master's cave, the other elders of the spirit stage of Tianji Peak had not arrived yet. Only Mo Yuan sat cross-legged on the stone bed with his eyes closed and breathing, wearing the Tai Chi robe he often wore, and a wind and thunder crown on his head. After feeling Shi Xuan coming in, he slowly opened his eyes and nodded, saying: "Master has advanced to the Yin God. This time I called you and other elders and true disciples in the peak to announce that you will take over as the head of Tianji Peak."
"Master, when will you leave this world? Disciple wants to see you off." Shi Xuan asked in a low voice.
Mo Yuan shook his head, without any expression: "No need, Master left through the time and space beacon in the important place of the sect, you can't enter. Practice well, don't let Master achieve the soul and come back, you will be dead." When he said the last sentence, although Mo Yuan still had no expression, his tone revealed a concern for his disciples.
"Yes." Shi Xuan wanted to say something bold, such as when you achieve the Yuanshen and come back, maybe your disciple has already achieved the Yuanshen, but when the words came to his lips, they turned into a simple word.
"I have already reported to the head of the sect a few years ago that you will take over as the head of Tianji Peak, and the head of the Zhanglu Hall was also present to witness it. As long as the elders and true disciples of the Shenhun stage have no objections today, there will be no other problems." Mo Yuan turned the topic from the farewell back to the matter to be solved today, and after a pause, he continued, "But you have not yet achieved the Jindan, and there is not much difference in cultivation with other elders and true disciples of the Shenhun stage. They may object later."
Shi Xuan understood why those elders and true disciples of the Shenhun stage objected, because if he became the head of Tianji Peak, he could control the Leifu world and feel the laws inside through the time and space gate, which would be a great help in achieving the Jindan. This has nothing to do with his character, but is just a cultivator's yearning and struggle for the Jindan Road.
Even if Shi Xuan was in charge, they could borrow it for use, but how could they gain as much as feeling it day and night in their own hands? For example, the small world in Yongxiang's hand was taken back by the headmaster after he left, so Tianxuan Peak now has no small world, and the headmaster Guo Wenhan has to borrow the time and space gate from other masters frequently.
"Disciple is 100% sure to suppress them." Shi Xuan said confidently and firmly. This is not arrogance, but confidence in his own strength. If it was three years ago, when the Tai Chi diagram had not yet reached the seventh level of perfection, Shi Xuan would at most dare to say that he was 70% sure, but now, the Tai Chi diagram with the seventh level of perfection is only higher than the power of the spiritual tools in the hands of other soul-level elders, and is similar to their eight-level perfection of the life magic tools, so relying on the subtle and mysterious functions of the Tai Chi diagram, they can completely suppress them steadily.
These kinds of competitions for the chief seat within a sect are not fights of life and death, but rather competitions of cultivation, so secret treasures, talismans, and other tools irrelevant to the realm of cultivation are not allowed to be used. One can only compare one's own spells, Taoist magic, natal magic tools, spiritual tools, swordsmanship, etc.
Mo Yuan nodded, said nothing more, and continued to close his eyes and regulate his breathing. Shi Xuan also found a stone bench and sat down.
After a while, three elders of the Soul Stage and a true disciple came over. Because Mo Yuan broke through the Yin God in the past few years, they did not go out in these years and concentrated on waiting for today's battle. In fact, there are not only three elders of the Soul Stage in Tianji Peak, but as many as seven, but the other four have no confidence in themselves, especially compared with these fellow disciples who often exchange ideas, the gap is a bit big, so they simply did not come, just admit that the last one is the first.
Ling Qing, the Soul Stage elder who is more than 280 years old, is one of the oldest disciples of the 15th generation, but he took the anti-aging pill and the elixir that prolongs life for 60 years in his early years, so he still looks like a young man in his twenties or thirties. He wears a gray Taoist robe, has a square face and thick eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "I don't know why the first seat summoned us?" In any case, the superficial work still needs to be done.
Mo Yuan said coldly: "I have broken through to the Yin God Stage. Today, I want to recommend my disciple Shi Xuan to be the first seat of my peak. I wonder what the elders think?"
Another elder of the Soul Stage, Gu Xinxuan, said with a smile: "Junior Brother Shi is extremely talented. He is a rare seed of cultivation in Penglai Sect for thousands of years. It is natural for him to take over the position of the first seat. However, we old immortals want to do more for the sect, so we also want to compete for the position of the first seat. According to the rules of the sect, this should be possible, right?" Although it was a question, it was affirmative.
This Gu Xinxuan was a middle-aged man with a broad face and a strong body. He wore a green Taoist robe. There was a kind of momentum of fighting on the battlefield between his eyes. Shi Xuan heard that he was a military general in the secular world, and then he entered Taoism from martial arts. He broke through to the subtle and advanced to Qi induction in his forties, and then was moved out of Shenxiao Palace, and then was recruited by Penglai Sect.
"Of course, I also have this idea." Ling Qing said in a powerful voice.
The last female Spiritual Soul Elder Yue Yinxin was dressed like a young woman in her twenties, elegant and pleasant, and smiled lightly: "Yinxin means the same thing."
Mo Yuan nodded, and turned to look at another true disciple of Tianji Peak, Hong Zhishan, who was the disciple of a deceased Spiritual Soul Elder and ranked fifth among the current true disciples: "Nephew Hong, what do you think?"
Hong Zhishan was a cultivator who paid great attention to his appearance. He wore a high crown, a black robe, and his hair was meticulously combed. His handsome face said respectfully at this time: "Reporting to Uncle Mo, nephew also wants to give it a try."
"Then go to the fighting arena, or just spar in this seat's cave. With this seat watching, there will be no injuries." Mo Yuan made two suggestions.
Ling Qing struggled for a moment. Going to the fighting arena would allow him to be more relaxed, but it would also attract other disciples from the sect to watch. If he won, it would be fine. But if he lost to Shi Xuan, a junior, it would be embarrassing. So he hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's fight in your cave, First Master. Don't spread the news about Tianji Peak."
The other three were a little hesitant, but since Ling Qing, the oldest elder in the Spiritual Soul Stage, proposed this, it was difficult to refute it. They all nodded, "Let's do it here."
Mo Yuan pointed his finger at the words, and a vast starry sky suddenly appeared in front of everyone. The endless dark black was filled with dense stars. Everyone was standing in the starry sky, and the cave disappeared without a trace. This was one of the magical arts that the upper-grade Jindan Grandmaster obtained when he achieved the Jindan by interacting with the laws of heaven and earth: the Void Illusion.
The superiority of the top-grade Jindan Grandmaster over the middle-grade Jindan Grandmaster lies in that, in addition to the fact that he can advance to the Yin God without the need for elixirs and is expected to achieve the Yuan Shen, he can practice magic and Taoism 20% faster than the middle-grade Jindan Grandmaster. Moreover, because of his understanding of the essence of Taoism, he can spend less time on offering sacrifices to magic tools and spiritual tools. Of course, the most important point is that when he achieves the top-grade Jindan, he can communicate with the laws of heaven and earth, and obtain one to three Taoist skills, just like obtaining a small innate magical power. These magical skills are between the third and fourth levels when they appear.
Moreover, if one of the magical skills is compatible with the natal magic tool, then this magical skill will be integrated into the natal magic tool, and the restriction of the natal magic tool will be improved by one level. For example, the natal magic tool has been perfected before, and it is very close to the spiritual tool through the improvement of its own cultivation when it achieves the Jindan. At this time, the natal magic tool will directly become a spiritual tool with the seventh or eighth level of Tiangang restriction, and it will take more than ten years to complete the first level.
Among these magical arts, the illusion of void is the most common one.
