Chapter 365: Catching the Murderer
It has only been nearly 900 years since Wei Zhong was promoted to Lianxu.
The time it took was not long, but I had been promoted to the middle stage of Void Refining once, and even reached the Krypton level.
This kind of speed is rare in the spiritual world.
It can be called a genius, but this kind of character design does not match Wei Zhong's ideas.
What Wei Zhong wants is a reliable background and stable practice.
Therefore, it is not what I want to advance to the middle stage of refining the void too early.
On the contrary, the so-called "forced breaking of ranks" using this broken rank is to show the outside world that one's qualifications are average.
Everyone felt that "if it weren't for this elixir, this person's promotion would have been delayed for hundreds of years."
This will reduce the attention that Wei Zhong himself can attract.
According to Yang Bao, the internal factional struggle within the Five Elements Immortal Sect has reached an alarming level.
Wei Zhong didn't want to get involved in the internal struggle in this state of refining the void.
I just want to find a reliable supporter to practice my practice steadily, instead of causing a life and death crisis due to this supporter.
Therefore, Wei Zhong must be as ordinary as possible in the eyes of everyone.
Yang Bao looked at Wei Zhong and said slowly:
"It will only take a thousand years for fellow Taoist Five Colors to be promoted to Lianxu! Why are you in such a hurry?
"No matter how good the level-breaking elixir is, it has its corresponding drawbacks. It is better to spend more time polishing your own cultivation.
"Anyway, my fellow Taoist is still young and has no worries about a small calamity. Why use this elixir to break through the ranks?"
Wei Zhong accepted the Five-turn Kanxu Pill and replied:
"Thank you, Brother Yang, for reminding me. I'm just seeking this elixir to increase my insurance. Maybe because of my limited qualifications, I'll stay in this early stage of refining for thousands of years and won't be promoted?"
"After all, it's not like I have no choice but to wait for death..."
Yangbao rubbed his chin:
"It's good as insurance, but I estimate that with the talents of Five Colors Daoist Fellows, this small bottleneck in the middle stage of Void Refining should not pose a threat."
Wei Zhong laughed, picked up the spirit wine on the table, clinked the glass to Yang Bao and said:
"This matter of spiritual practice is constantly changing. Who can say for sure?"
"That's true."
The two clinked glasses and drank, and after a while, Yang Baocai left with the Five Elements Spirit Pearl in his hands with satisfaction.
Wei Zhong held the pill bottle in his arms and murmured:
"At most, you can reach the krypton level once more and replenish your life span for five hundred years, and then you can try to officially break through to the middle stage of Void Refining."
Return to the cave and continue to practice hard.
Time passed, and outside Longzang's secret place, Feng Shuming stepped into Longzang's secret place with a gloomy look.
His robe was in tatters, with only a piece of golden inner armor on him. He raised his hand and crushed a talisman, then sat there and waited.
After a while, someone arrived, and it was Feng Xihui's people who were in this cave.
Everyone was shocked when they saw the embarrassed appearance of their young master.
"Sir, what happened?"
The opponent threw a piece of spiritual wood with an unlucky look on his face. It floated in the air, and then a monk's spirit emerged from inside.
He looked sluggish and seemed to have suffered extremely serious trauma.
"Fellow Daoist Ling?"
Everyone was shocked. This person was none other than the protector assigned to the young master Feng Shuming within the Feng Xi Society.
His cultivation has reached the middle stage of Void Refining. What kind of crisis did he encounter that caused his physical body to be destroyed, and he could only escape here as a soul?
"Young master encountered a robbery while going out this time. If I hadn't tried my best to protect him with my body, I'm afraid..."
Everyone understands the meaning of his words.
But doubts arise in everyone’s hearts:
"What kind of audacious force dares to rob and kill my young master of Fengxi Society?"
"Can Fellow Daoist Ling identify the robbery cultivator? What kind of power does he come from?"
Ling Feng shook his head:
"My eyes are clumsy." He turned to look at Feng Shuming, "Does the young master have any clues?"
Seeing that everyone was paying attention to him, Feng Shuming waved his sleeves impatiently:
"How would I know?
"There is also a distress signal sent by this young master. Why is there no response?"
"this……"
There is a secret barrier in the Longzang Secret Land. Using ordinary communication methods, external news will be stopped when it reaches the entrance.
If you want to send it inside, you have to manually communicate it to and from the secret place.
"The person in charge of this matter, I remember correctly, should be Elder Liu, right?"
Everyone focused their attention on an old man in the crowd, who looked panicked and said hesitantly:
"I have assigned these people to my eldest disciple, who should still be guarding the gate outside the secret place."
At this point, Feng Shuming sneered and said:
"I haven't seen the person Elder Liu mentioned. Could it be that he left his post without permission?"
Hearing this, Elder Liu couldn't help but panic, and quickly bowed and handed over his hands:
"Don't worry, young master, I'll go check it out right now. If I really leave my post without permission, I will be punished severely."
After that, he hurried towards the entrance of the secret place.
Feng Shuming looked at the man's posture and couldn't help but reveal a trace of sneer on his face. He turned to ask everyone:
"Where's father?"
The first one stood up and answered:
"The guild leader and other Hedao seniors discovered an internal secret in a secret place, and they are breaking through the formation to mine it, and they can't get away.
"If you want to catch the murderer, young master, just ask me to wait."
Among the Void Refining monks present, there were several in the middle and late stages of Void Refining, which accounted for almost half of the high-level power of Feng Xihui.
But after hearing this, Feng Shuming still seemed unwilling to cooperate.
Ling Feng had no choice but to step forward with his soul and describe the appearance and characteristics of the robber cultivator who attacked the two.
"The leader is a bald man who practices physical cultivation. His strength is strong enough to shake the void. My spiritual body is no different from paper in front of him...
"There are also water cultivators and fire cultivators working together...
"Their cultivation is roughly between the early and middle stages of refining emptiness..."
After accepting the information provided by Ling Feng, Feng Xihui immediately used its relationship in Baifeng Spirit Realm to find the identity of the attacker through Xuanxiao Sect and major forces.
Even Wei Zhong, who was in Shahemen, received a letter, entrusting Wei Zhong to report to Feng Xihui if he found a similar cultivator, and the other party would pay a certain amount of reward.
Putting down the letter, there was also a top-grade spirit stone next to it.
Both items were sent by Feng Xihui. According to the other party, this was just a gift for the commission.
"As expected, he is a wealthy family, and he can give away top-grade spirit stones as soon as he wants."
It is important to know whether Feng Xi will only entrust his Shahe Sect, including the Xuanxiao Sect and the many forces of Lianxu and even Huashen in Baifeng Spirit Realm.
The gifts accumulated are not a small amount. "The financial resources of the Chamber of Commerce are extraordinary. Who is so blinded by greed that he actually wants to provoke this young master of the Feng family?
"It's fatal, but he still failed."
Shaking his head slightly, Wei Zhong conveyed the content of the letter to Shahe Sect.
The disciples of Shahe Sect who received this news immediately discussed it.
"Who is so stupid that he dared to provoke this young master of the Feng family?"
"Yes, the other party has a father who is in harmony with the Dao. How can he let it go? The attacker is finished. ”
“A top-grade spirit stone as a gift, Feng Xihui is really generous. If I can find the identity of that robbery cultivator, I am afraid that I will not have to worry about everything I need to advance to the refining void…”
There are many people who think this way. Of course, some people have different views.
For example, Yuan Caiqin, the former eldest lady of Qingfengling, held the hand of the cultivator beside her and murmured:
“Brother Bai, do you think it is possible that the Liu family did it?”
Such remarks immediately ushered in the other party’s severe stop:
“Don’t talk nonsense without evidence!
“I know you can’t let go of the hatred of that day, but not all dirty water can be thrown on the Liu family.
“The Liu family is not easy to mess with, and Feng Xihui is even harder to mess with.
"Thinking of using Fengxi Society to eliminate the Liu family, you'd better forget it, Junior Sister. Fengxi Society is not easy to fool, and will not accept fooling, so don't get yourself into trouble.
"If you want revenge, you might as well practice well. After you and I are promoted to the Refining Void, we will go find Senior Sister Yan and seek justice for Qingfengling together..."
Listening to Bai Changhong's words, Yuan Caiqin sighed in her heart.
She knew that it was much more reliable to rely on herself to avenge Qingfengling, but how easy is it to improve her cultivation?
It has been a long time since the destruction of Qingfengling.
His cultivation is still in the Nascent Soul stage, and it is unknown how long it will take to break through to the God of Transformation.
'My senior brother has barely reached the middle stage of the God of Transformation, and the late stage is out of reach. How much time will it take to break the refining void?
‘I’m afraid I’ll be nothing but a pile of dry bones by then…’
Although the two of them hold most of the heritage of Qingfeng Ridge, there are not many spiritual objects that can be used directly. On the contrary, most of them are some primitive spiritual materials.
Without the corresponding skills, the two can only guard the treasure mountain in vain, and it is difficult to transform it into cultivation resources.
They can only throw out a part of it every once in a while in exchange for cultivation resources.
But even such cautious actions have attracted the attention of some thieves in the sect.
If it weren’t for the fact that Bai Changhong’s cultivation level is quite low in the entire Shahe Sect, I’m afraid the two of them would have been eaten up by those with ulterior motives.
“You and I will not participate in this matter. Just stay in this Shahe Sect and practice with peace of mind.”
Hearing Bai Changhong’s humming teachings, Yuan Caiqin nodded in response:
“Junior sister understands. "
The news that Feng Xihui had entrusted the pursuit of the murderer spread throughout Shahemen, and it was no exception outside.
All the forces, big and small, in Baifeng Spiritual Domain received this news, even some independent cultivators were no exception.
Looking at Feng Xihui's generosity and the promised reward, the entire Baifeng Spiritual Domain was in turmoil, looking for the refining evildoer who echoed the information.
Longteng Sect, the five members of the Northern Territory Demon Dragon Clan who learned of this could not help but sigh:
"This Feng Xihui is really troublesome.
"Feng Shuming not only has someone to protect him, but also has a seventh-level magic weapon in his hand, as well as a variety of means of protection...
"Letting him escape also puts us in a passive position."
Hong Yi frowned as he looked at the letter in his hand.
Ao Xuan's words came to his ears:
"Brother Hong, why worry? Let Feng Xihui find us, can he find us? "
Jin Lin stood up and agreed:
"Brother Ao's words make sense. We are hiding in the Longteng Sect, surrounded by our people, so there is no need to worry about exposure.
"And as long as we hide our faces and breath, we will not be easily discovered by others. The means of the Fengxi Society are ultimately false.
"And didn't we achieve the purpose of taking such risks before?"
After saying that, he looked at the two people in front of him.
A man and a woman, they were Tong Gongmo and Chen Ronglan, who Wei Zhong was familiar with.
"Compared to the young master of the Fengxi Society, the young master of the Xuanxiao Sect is much easier to deal with."
It had not been long since he was promoted to the Refining Void realm, and he was not yet proficient in the use of his sixth-level skills. The dragons took him down in a flash, without spending too much effort, and even without letting him send out a distress message.
In the eyes of Xuanxiao Sect and others, their young master had only been missing for a short period of time, which was not worth mentioning for a Refining Void cultivator.
Jin Lin's voice was mocking, but the two people in front of him did not change their expressions much, but instead maintained a dull expression.
"Sister Luo, how are the preparations going?"
Luo Jia stood up from her position and said directly:
"We are almost ready. In a month at most, the two men's minds will be completely suppressed, and we can control them and take us into the Dragon Hidden Secret Land.
"Whether it is pretending to be a subordinate or hiding in a storage bag as a spirit pet, it's all fine..."
Hearing the word "spiritual pet", Hong Yi subconsciously showed a hint of disgust.
Jin Lin keenly caught this point and added:
"Pretending to be a subordinate sect disciple will eventually have flaws. We might as well transform into their personal spirit objects and rely on their bodies, which will make it easier to control them."
Turning his head to look at the dragons present:
"Brother Gu and Brother Ao, if the aura is not well concealed, then don't participate in this trip to the Dragon Hidden Secret Land. Let me, Sister Luo, and Brother Hong go.
"You two will be responsible for the support outside."
Although the two were opposed to their appointment, they knew that what the other party said was the truth and the best arrangement, so they couldn't refute it.
Hong Yi said firmly:
"Let's do it this way."
His cultivation level is the highest, and since he has come to a conclusion, Silong naturally has no reason to refute it.
He walked to Chen Ronglan:
"This female cultivator once said that she would have a high-level spiritual pearl transaction with the Five Colors of the Sand Crane Sect in two months.
"In order to avoid being exposed, Jin Lin, you control this person to go to the Sand Crane Sect and try the effect. If you can't hide it from the Five Colors Taoist, it is estimated that it will be in vain to deal with other cultivators, and the plan will have to be postponed again..."
"Yes, I am also very curious about the spiritual pearl magic weapon, and I just took this opportunity..."
After March, Wei Zhong came out of retreat, and the storage bag he carried with him had accumulated A large number of spiritual beads and magic weapons.
Most of them were distributed to Xiao Qingfeng to make up for the reserved share of the previous cultivators, and he personally handed over the remaining sixth-level spiritual beads to the cultivators of the same realm.
All the major refining forces sent their refining cultivators or their disciples to visit and obtain the promised spiritual beads from Wei Zhong.
Within just three days after Wei Zhong spread the news, most of the sixth-level spiritual beads in his hand were sold.
At this time, the controlled Chen Ronglan came late.
"Fellow Daoist Wu Se!"
The two sides greeted each other, Wei Zhong handed over the spiritual beads, and wanted to drive him away to continue practicing, but unexpectedly, the other party did not leave for a while, but instead pulled Wei Zhong to chat.
Wei Zhong chatted casually, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the blue spiritual ring in his hand.
