Chapter 316: Searching for Inheritance
The cage in the secret room of the ancient palace exudes a stale smell of blood.
On the wall, there are still faint carvings, the number of which seems to be seventeen.
The old man, who had been imprisoned for seventeen years, now has very weak vital signs, and it can almost be said that he will die at any time.
The angry old man raised his drooped eyelids and tried his best to look at the tall young man who slowly walked in from outside the cage.
"Fellow Taoist...who are you and how did you get in here?" The old man's voice was very low, so weak that it was almost difficult to hear.
Li Qing put his hands behind his back and did not rush to answer the old man's question, but observed carefully.
Finally, he came to the conclusion that the old man didn't have long to live.
Even if all the healing elixirs in his body were given to the other party, it might not be able to save his life that was about to end.
There is a strong sense of decay and desolation from this old man, like a dead leaf that is about to rot in the soil, and has completely exhausted the source of life.
"Are you the old mountain master of Tianliang Mountain?" Li Qing asked calmly.
The old mountain master's body is still normal, and he has obviously converted to the secret power of the red moon, but his body still maintains the appearance of a normal old man.
The only thing that seemed a little strange was probably his hair. The white hair on his head was so long that it could even pile up into a blanket on the ground.
"Exactly. Old man." Answering such a question seemed to exhaust all his strength. After a long time, the old mountain master said again: "Those two evil obstacles must have died in your hands."
Li Qing nodded and said, "Well, the two of them, Magic Mountain and Black Feather, have become a huge scourge. They are going to massacre the city and feed the mortals for blood rage. I can't stand it anymore before I take action. Now both of them are All of them have been executed."
Listening to Li Qing express such a fact in plain words, it took the old mountain master a long time to digest the content contained in this sentence.
"Okay, it's a good death. Haha, cough, cough!"
The old mountain master, who was almost exhausted, laughed as if he had taken a breath of bad breath.
After being imprisoned for so many years and being able to take a small amount of blood at long intervals to maintain his vital signs, he should have died long ago.
A large part of the reason why he is still able to survive here is because of this obsession in his heart. Now that he knows that Mo Shan and Heiyu have all been killed, this obsession in his heart has also dissipated. It also means that his life is coming to an end.
Li Qing frowned. He still had many questions to ask. He didn't expect that the other party would die so soon.
As if he could see Li Qing's scruples, the old mountain master forced himself to speak: "Fellow Taoist, I know you still have many questions to ask. Please pick the few you want to know the most as soon as possible. I don't have much time. "
"I have only one request. After I die, how about burying me on the main peak of Tianliang Mountain?"
This indifferent attitude towards life and death actually made Li Qinggao take a look.
He nodded, agreeing to the other party's last request before his death.
"Tell me briefly about the Blood Lotus Religion? I heard the Lord of Black Feather Mountain say this name before he died."
The old mountain master answered this question happily: "After the red moon mutation began, some former monks soon discovered that if you absorb the secret power of the red moon, you can extend your life."
"This is almost a great discovery. It has rekindled the hope of many monks who were about to give up. Since cultivating the secret power of the Red Moon can lead to immortality, they will simply abandon the immortal way."
"But soon, the side effects of converting to the secret power of the Red Moon occurred. Either they became inhuman or ghosts, or they completely lost their minds."
"Just when many people began to hesitate, a mysterious sect suddenly appeared in the Qiu Mountain Domain called the Blood Lotus Sect. All its members are composed of former immortal cultivators."
"The Blood Lotus Sect has found many ways to stabilize the side effects of the red moon's secret power, and transforming into a black-feathered crow is one of them."
Speaking of this, the old mountain master showed a deep sadness in his eyes.
"I once had a good friend in the Blood Lotus Sect, and I also exchanged the Crow Technique from him. How could I have thought of these two evil obstacles?"
If not, he might have lived a lot longer.
Li Qing didn't pay much attention to the sad mood of the old mountain master. He silently repeated the names Qiushan Domain and Blood Lotus Sect in his heart.
Its members are all former immortal cultivators, and now they have all converted to the secret power of the Red Moon.
To be able to gather and control so many nearly extinct immortal cultivators in this world, it is probably not easy for the mysterious leader behind the Blood Lotus Sect.
The most important thing is that sects are different from sects. The former contains elements of faith and has unique doctrines, while the latter is relatively loose.
The Blood Lotus Sect is definitely not a simple force.
Just when Li Qing was about to ask the next question, he suddenly discovered that the old mountain master had completely lost his breath. He didn't know when he suddenly died.
Seeing this scene, he was slightly startled, thinking that he still had many questions to ask. At the very least, he had to find out which of Tianliang Mountain's Immortal Dao inheritance was special.
"Forget it, just take your time and find it slowly."
Li Qing whispered and prepared to collect the other party's body, intending to bury the other party's body at the main peak of Tianliang Mountain as promised.
But soon, he stopped, stopped moving forward, and then narrowed his eyes, always feeling that this scene was a little familiar.
Is the old mountain master really dead? It always feels a little too sudden!
Soon, a ray of red true fire emerged from Li Qing's fingertips, and he said to himself:
"Old mountain master, we cultivators have never cared about what happens after death, and cremation is more popular now. Just think of it as a contribution to saving funeral land and land resources."
As soon as the voice fell, he urged his innate true fire to rush directly to the old mountain master's corpse that looked like rotten wood.
Boom!
The blazing flames burned his body to ashes in almost an instant.
Just when the other party's skull was about to be burned to ashes, suddenly a slightly dim spiritual light rushed out and rushed straight to Li Qing's eyebrows.
Seeing this scene, Li Qing just sneered, without any panic.
He had been prepared for a long time, and his eyes suddenly turned golden, and then turned into a golden blade, slashing out at a very fast speed.
Swish!
The spiritual light that rushed towards him was directly smashed to pieces, turned into a rain of light all over the sky, and then quickly extinguished.
"What a cautious boy. I hate it!"
With the transmission of the last thought of the old mountain master, he was truly dead and gone.
That's right, the other party wanted to take a last risk and prepare to seize Li Qing's body.
Fortunately, Li Qing has lived for a long time and has a certain understanding of seizing bodies, so he naturally guarded against this move.
Li Qing sneered and said: "If you want to seize my body, even if I am not on guard, you may not succeed today."
His soul is as strong as a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building, while the old mountain master's cultivation level before his death was at most the foundation building stage. He has experienced so many years of the Dharma Ending Age, and has been imprisoned for so long, so the strength of his soul is now very weak.
Even if Li Qing didn't use the Soul Condensation Slash and let the other party enter the sea of consciousness, his soul could easily deal with the other party's residual soul.
It's just that because the human sea of consciousness is the most mysterious place, he doesn't want to let anything else in easily, and doesn't want to take any risks, so he uses the Soul Condensation Slash to completely destroy the other party!
"Hehe, this old ghost is really patient. After waiting for so many years, he finally waited for a cultivator. I should be his last chance to seize the body in the rest of his life."
"What an old fox, too pretentious. If I hadn't helped Ye Feng seize the body before, I really wouldn't be able to react."
Li Qing sighed repeatedly, and then recalled several iron laws about seizing the body in the world of immortal cultivation.
One of them is that cultivators cannot seize the body of mortals without spiritual roots.
Otherwise, over the years, it is estimated that the old mountain master would have tried to seize the body of the Black Feather Mountain Master.
Looking at the last pile of bone powder left in the world, Li Qing put it all into a container, and finally sprinkled it over the sky of Tianliang Mountain, and casually activated a wind-type spell to disperse it with the wind.
"I don't care about your possession of my body, let you take a last look at the scenery of Tianliang Mountain."
After saying that, Li Qing turned around and returned to the ancient temple in the forbidden area.
Now, it's time for him to harvest!
Without saying anything, Li Qing directly picked up a book that had obviously been flipped through many times.
However, after just a glance, he threw the book into the storage bag casually. It was just a basic gold-attributed practice.
He moved quickly, flipping through one book after another. As long as it was useless to him, he threw it into the storage bag at the first time and didn't care about it anymore.
The content of the book as a carrier is naturally not good. Most of them are inheritances or secret books that are only needed in the Qi Refining Stage, but they are of no use to Li Qing.
After searching all the way, he finally got some gains.
The first is a first-level array inheritance, which not only describes the array, but also records several first-level arrays in detail.
However, Li Qing, who has not learned much about arrays, just glanced at it roughly and felt that it was extremely profound, so he put it into the storage bag.
"It's too complicated, and it's too complicated to combine with spiritual veins. The array really requires too much understanding. I'll find an opportunity to sell it later."
The second is a map, which includes the entire Black Wind Region and some of the surrounding geographical conditions.
The Qiushan Region where the Blood Lotus Sect is located is also included, and it is located in the southeast of the Black Wind Region, quite close.
Li Qing rubbed his chin, and then took the third valuable thing in his hand.
"The Preface to Tianliang Refining"!
That's right, something related to the refining inheritance, and this is a first-level refining inheritance. If you learn it, you can be able to refine a medium-grade magic weapon.
Of course, the weapon refining techniques are not worth mentioning to Li Qing. The most valuable ones are the unique spiritual patterns.
Although at most he could refine a medium-grade magic weapon, many spiritual patterns also have certain reference value for him, which can give Li Qing some inspiration.
And the most important thing is that since there is a preface, then the complete postface must be here!
Thinking of this, Li Qing's breathing became a little faster, and then he looked at the scattered jade slips!
