Chapter 174: Accepting the Task of Exorcising Demons
"The ultimate goal of Master Qian Ding is to enhance the strength of Yunshui Sect."
Chu Chen had a clear understanding of Yunshui Sect's situation.
Master Qian Ding borrowed Lin Fan's help to intensify the struggle between the direct sect and the casual cultivator sect. The fundamental purpose was to let the two sides compete in order to enhance the strength of Yunshui Sect.
Immortals are fighting for their lives. Only when the two factions compete with each other can the potential of Yunshui Sect disciples be more unleashed. It does not really mean life and death between the two sides.
No matter which side suffers casualties, it will be a huge loss to Yunshui Sect.
This is the reason why Master Qian Ding is furious.
It was precisely because of Master Qian Ding's thunderous methods that Yunshui Sect was able to maintain an orderly situation amidst chaos.
Under such circumstances, some Yunshui Sect disciples and elders who were unwilling to participate in the fight could protect themselves wisely and would not worry about being involved in the fight.
"Yunshui Sect can continue to stay."
Chu Chen smiled and drank a jar of cold spring nectar to celebrate that he didn't have to run away for the time being.
Time flies, time flies.
Chu Chen stayed in Canglanfang City, practicing in an orderly manner, refining elixirs to gain merit.
Because he has broken through the highest level of the Soul-Seizing Body Training Sutra, the cultivation process of the Soul-Seizing Sutra is much faster than that of Qianyuan Gong.
Five years later.
The Soul Seizing Manual broke through the second level first and reached the stage of minor completion of the treasure body, which is comparable to the middle stage of foundation building.
With only physical strength, Chu Chen could compete with a real person in the middle stage of foundation building.
Another year later.
Qian Yuan Gong broke through the second level, and Chu Chen then entered the middle stage of foundation building.
"The speed of breaking through the middle stage of foundation building is much faster than I expected."
Both his magic power and body refining have broken through to the middle stage of foundation building. At this moment, his combat power has increased again, enough to surpass most of the real people in the middle stage of foundation building.
In other words, he lacks experience in fighting skills, otherwise, he might be able to compete with real people in the late stage of foundation building.
"Mana power and body refining have already broken through the middle stage of foundation building, but the originally most powerful divine will is lagging behind a bit."
Chu Chen frowned.
Due to the lack of cultivation methods, after breaking through the foundation building stage, he inevitably slacked off in the cultivation of spiritual thoughts.
During the Qi training period, he practiced the God Refining Technique, and took many elixirs to enhance the power of the soul. Finally, at the twelfth level of Qi training, he was able to gather his spiritual thoughts in advance.
After breaking through the foundation building stage, Chu Chen's spiritual power was also twice as strong as that of monks of the same realm.
After breaking through the middle stage of foundation building, his spiritual power has increased to a certain extent, but it can only cover a radius of sixty feet, which is only ten feet more than the ordinary real person who has just entered the middle stage of foundation building.
As your cultivation level continues to improve, this advantage will gradually be erased.
"The practice of spiritual thoughts must not be left behind."
Chu Chen once saw a theory in an ancient book from ancient times.
If you can practice the three elements of essence, energy, and spirit to the limit of the foundation building period, you can increase the chance of forming a pill.
However, due to the decline of spiritual energy, most monks in the Qingzhou Immortal Cultivation World only practice one or both of the three elements of essence, energy, and spirit. Few people practice all three at the same time.
To practice one of the three elements of Jing, Qi and Shen to the limit of the foundation building stage requires a lot of practice resources and time.
Not to mention, the resources and time required to cultivate all three to the limit of the foundation building period are enormous.
certainly.
None of this is a problem for Chu Chen. As long as he has enough time, sooner or later he will be able to practice all three of his essence, energy, and spirit to the limit of the foundation building stage.
He has the Soul Seizing Scripture for body training, and the Qian Yuan Gong for his magic power, but he still lacks a cultivation method for his spiritual mind.
"We have to find a way to redeem Taiyi Shen Yang Technique."
Chu Chen pondered in his heart and came up with the idea of exchanging the Taiyi Spirit-nurturing Technique.
The speed of exchanging Huanglong Pill for meritorious deeds is very slow. If you want to exchange for Taiyi Soul Cultivation Technique, you can only find other ways.
For example, complete real-life demon-killing tasks.
At this moment, his mana and body refining have both broken through to the middle stage of body refining. As long as he is careful, he can complete some relatively simple real-person level demon-killing tasks.
"The demon-killing task of killing the fish demon is still there, you can try it."
Chu Chen did not act rashly. The task of eliminating demons at the real-life level was quite difficult. It involved fighting with foundation-building monks and monsters, so he had to be fully prepared.
For the next period of time, while stabilizing his newly achieved cultivation level, he also inquired about the fish demon.
During this period, it would be best if there were simpler real-life demon-killing tasks.
Unfortunately, it was not possible.
When these simpler real-person-level demon-killing foreign affairs appear in front of the Foreign Affairs Hall, they will be picked up first by the real people from the direct lineage who have received the news.
Elders such as Chu Chen, guest ministers, can only take on the more difficult foreign affairs of eliminating demons.
"It is not unreasonable for the Loose Cultivator Sect to be in conflict with the direct lineage sect."
Chu Chen would sometimes lament that the direct line's suppression of the casual cultivators was everywhere.
But these have nothing to do with him, and he doesn't want to worry about it.
Foreign Affairs Hall.
After Han Yuanhao became the leader of the direct lineage, Master Qian Ding ordered that Han Yuanhao be removed from his position as the foreign affairs elder and be replaced by Master Qingxu.
As the foreign affairs elder, he is in charge of exchanging merits and receiving foreign affairs for exterminating demons. If he really wants to deliberately plot, the foundation-building master of the Sanxiu sect may be deceived into a trap.
As long as some key details of the demon removal external affairs are concealed, it is enough to put the real person who takes over the task into an extremely dangerous situation.
Therefore, Master Qian Ding replaced the foreign affairs elder with Master Qingxu.
Although Master Qingxu is a direct descendant of the sect, he has not joined the direct faction. Instead, he has stayed away from the two factions and has never been involved in factional fights. It is most suitable for him to be in charge of the Foreign Affairs Palace.
"Senior Brother Qingxu, I'm here to handle the external affairs of exterminating demons."
Chu Chen bowed his hands to Master Qingxu and said.
"The sun is out in the west, and junior brother actually wants to take over the external affairs of exterminating demons?"
Master Qingxu looked surprised. He had also heard about Chu Chen Xianyu's name.
"Yesterday, I saw Yifang City's casual cultivators diligently practicing hard. Junior brother, I couldn't help but wake up and realize that I cannot continue to degenerate."
Chu Chen made up a random reason.
"Junior brother's awakening is worthy of celebration. When junior brother completes the task of exterminating demons, you can come to me and have a few drinks."
Master Qingxu stroked his beard and felt very pleased.
"Junior brother, look, which mission do you want to take on?"
With that said, Master Qingxu handed the jade slips recording the external affairs of exterminating demons to Chu Chen.
"I want to take over the external affairs of killing the fish demon."
Chu Chen penetrated it with his spiritual mind, pretended to choose for a while, and then said.
After inquiring and collecting information from all parties, this task is the simplest real-life demon-killing foreign affairs in the Foreign Affairs Palace.
More than ten years have passed, and the fish demon still only has the cultivation level of the early stage of foundation building, and has never made a breakthrough.
But the fish demon is very cautious. If a powerful monk appears, it will escape without a trace and never leave the Tongyang River.
Therefore, after so many years, I have been living a good life.
"Junior brother, have you ever thought about it? This fish demon is not very strong, but it is proficient in water escape. If you can't lead this fish demon out of the Tongyang River, even if I take action, I may not be able to catch it."
Master Qingxu reminded.
"Thank you for the reminder, senior brother. Since junior brother wants to take on this task, he must be fully prepared."
Chu Chen smiled.
"That being the case, I wish junior brother good luck."
Master Qingxu removed the task and entered the task information into Chu Chen's identity token.
In this way, even if Chu Chen accepted this task.
