Chapter 402

Five years later, in Shi Xuan's cave residence on Phecda Peak.

The Tai Chi diagram was rotating slowly in Shi Xuan's dantian, constantly absorbing black and white genuine Qi and exhaling even more condensed black and white genuine Qi, as if it was Shi Xuan's second dantian vortex. This natal instrument had reached the peak of the Seventh Heavenly Layer three years ago, and the power of the Yin and Yang Qi turning all things into chaos was already equal to the power of the Heaven Thunder Demon Sword that Shi Xuan could use. It had become the most powerful instrument in Shi Xuan's possession again, and its ability to set up formations and defend attacks had also become more powerful.

Shi Xuan found Qing Feng waiting respectfully outside the living room, as if he had something important to report, so he opened his eyes and said lightly, "What's the matter, Qing Feng?"

Qing Feng hurriedly bowed and said, "Master, Master Mo sent Senior Cang Wu to invite you." Now, Qing Feng was the only Taoist apprentice left in Shi Xuan's cave residence. Ming Yue had already reached the Leaving Body Realm a few years ago, and then participated in the Dharma Assembly to recruit disciples and successfully entered the outer sanctum. As for Qing Feng, who had always been honest and dull, he was still stuck at the peak of the Qi Cultivation Realm. It seemed that he wanted to return to the secular world after a few years to enjoy the glory and wealth. Everyone had their own ambitions, so Shi Xuan couldn't say anything.

After calculating the time, Shi Xuan somewhat understood why his master suddenly asked Cang Wu to invite him over. Suddenly, a sense of farewell rose in his heart, so he sighed and said to Qing Feng, "I'll go there right away."

Outside, Shi Xuan saw Cang Wu, who looked a little bad. After following Mo Yuan for so many years, he still couldn't break through the Qi Gathering Realm and had no hope of entering the inner sanctum. Now that Mo Yuan was about to leave this world, he would at most be given some instruments and pills, but he would no longer be able to enjoy the other benefits of being Jindan Grandmaster's Taoist apprentice. In addition, he also regarded Mo Yuan as his master, and the sorrow of parting surged in his heart, so it was good that he didn't look gloomy.

"Martial Uncle Shi, Master invites you over." Seeing Shi Xuan come out, Cang Wu hurriedly said.

Nodding, Shi Xuan walked out of the cave residence, and at the same time, he asked lightly, "Master has broken through to the Yin Spirit Realm?"

Cang Wu quickened his steps and caught up, "Master broke through to the Yin Spirit Realm a few days ago. After he stabilized his realm, he asked Cang Wu to invite you. At the same time, Cang Wu needs to invite all the elders and true disciples in the mountain. "

Cang Wu Xuan also wants to invite all the elders and Taoist disciples in Heavenly Peak. " Shi Xuan joked, wanting to adjust his mood, but as soon as the words left his mouth, he felt an awkward silence. Fortunately, Cang Wu was in a bad mood and did not notice this. After bidding farewell to Shi Xuan, he hurriedly went to the other caves in the mountain.

…

When Shi Xuan stepped into his master's abode, the other Divine Soul Stage elders of Phecda Peak had not arrived yet. Only Mo Yuan was sitting cross-legged on the stone bed with his eyes closed. He was wearing the Tai Chi Daoist robe that he usually wore and a Wind and Thunder Crown on his head. When he sensed Shi Xuan coming in, he slowly opened his eyes, nodded and said, "Your master has already advanced to Yin Master. This time, I called you and the other elders and true disciples over, is to announce that you will take over the position of Phecda Peak's Chief."

"Master, when will you leave this great world? This disciple wants to send you off, "Shi Xuan said in a low voice.

Mo Yuan shook his head and said expressionlessly, "There's no need for that. I left through the space-time waymark of the sect, so you can't get in. Cultivate well. Don't wait for me to return after I form my Primordial Spirit and you'll already be dead. " When he said the last sentence, although Mo Yuan was still expressionless, his tone revealed a sense of concern for his disciple.

"Yes." Shi Xuan originally wanted to say some heroic words, such as master, when you come back after forming your Primordial Spirit, maybe this disciple has already formed his Primordial Spirit. But when the words reached his mouth, they turned into a simple 'yes'.

"This time, I have already reported the matter of you taking over the position of Phecda Peak's Chief to the sect head a few years ago, and the head of the Disciplinary Hall was also present as a witness. Today, as long as the few Divine Soul Stage elders and true disciples have no objections, then there will be no other problems. " Mo Yuan changed the topic from parting to the matter to be settled today, and after a pause, he continued, "But you haven't formed your Golden Core yet, so there's not much difference between you and the other Divine Soul Stage elders and true disciples in terms of cultivation, so they may oppose it later."

Shi Xuan understood why those Divine Soul Stage elders and true disciples would oppose it. Because if he became the Phecda Peak's Chief, he would be able to control the Thunder Mansion World. Through the space-time gate, he could feel the laws inside, which would be of great help in forming his Golden Core. This had nothing to do with one's character, but a cultivator's yearning and struggle for the Golden Core Dao.

Although even if Shi Xuan was in charge, they could also borrow it to use, but it was not as great as feeling it in their own hands day and night. For example, the Minor Chiliocosm in Yong Xiang's hands was taken back by the sect head after he left, so there was no Minor Chiliocosm in Meruan Peak now. Chief Guo Wenhan had to often borrow the space-time gate from other Grand Masters.

"This disciple has 100% confidence in suppressing them." Shi Xuan confidently and firmly said. This was not arrogance, but confidence in his own strength. If it was three years ago when the primal chaos diagram hadn't reached perfection of the Seventh Layered Heavens, Shi Xuan dared to say that he had 70% confidence. But now, the primal chaos diagram at perfection of the Seventh Layered Heavens could display a power that was higher than the spirit tools of other Divine Soul Stage elders. It was similar to their life source magic tools at perfection of the Eighth Layered Heavens. Therefore, by relying on the subtle and mysterious functions of the primal chaos diagram, he could completely suppress them.

This kind of competition for the chief seat within the sect was not a life or death battle, but a battle of cultivation. Therefore, secret treasures, talismans, and other items that had nothing to do with one's cultivation were not allowed to be used. They could only compare their own techniques, dao techniques, life source magic tools, spirit tools, swordsmanship, and so on.

Mo Yuan nodded and didn't speak again. He closed his eyes and continued to meditate. Shi Xuan also found a stone bench and sat down.

After a while, three Divine Soul Stage elders and a true disciple rushed over. Because Mo Yuan had broken through to the Yin Spirit Stage in these few years, they hadn't gone out in these few years and concentrated on waiting for today's battle. In fact, there were more than three Divine Soul Stage elders in Phecda Peak, but there were seven of them. But the other four didn't have much confidence in themselves, especially when compared with their fellow disciples, there was a big gap between them. Therefore, they didn't come and only acknowledged the position of the chief seat.

The Divine Soul Stage elder Ling Qing was already more than two hundred and eighty years old. He was one of the oldest among the fifteenth generation disciples, but he had taken the Everlasting Beauty Pill and the pill that could prolong his life for sixty years in his early years, so he still looked like a young man in his twenties or thirties. He wore a gray Taoist robe, had a square face and thick eyebrows. He said in a low voice, "May I know why the chief seat has summoned us?" No matter what, he still had to put on a show.

Mo Yuan said coldly, "I have already broken through to the Yin Spirit Stage. Today, I want to recommend my disciple, Shi Xuan, for the position of the chief seat of our peak. I don't know what the elders have to say."

Another Divine Soul Stage elder, Gu Xinxuan, smiled and said, "Nephew Shi is overflowing with talent. He is a rare cultivator of Taoism in Penglai, so it is natural for him to take over the position of the chief seat. But I still want to do more for the sect, so I also want to compete for the position of the chief seat. According to the rules of the sect, this should be allowed, right?" Although it was a question, it was in a positive tone.

This Gu Xinxuan was a middle-aged man with a broad face and wore a green Taoist robe. When he looked around, there was a natural aura of someone who had fought on the battlefield. Shi Xuan heard that he was born as a general in the secular world. Later, he entered the Taoism through martial arts. When he was in his forties, he broke through to the refinement stage and entered the Qi Drawing stage. Then, he was moved out of the Shenxiao Palace and was recruited by Penglai.

"Of course, I also have the same idea." Ling Qing said in a vigorous voice.

The last female Divine Soul Stage elder, Yue Yinxin, was dressed like a young woman in her twenties. She smiled and said, "Yinxin also has the same idea."

Mo Yuan nodded and turned to another successor disciple of Phecda Peak, Hong Zhishan. He was the disciple of a Divine Soul Stage elder who had passed away, and ranked fifth among the current successor disciples. "Nephew Hong, what do you think?"

Hong Zhishan was a cultivator who paid great attention to his appearance. He wore a tall hat and black clothes, and his hair was meticulously combed. His handsome face was now very respectful. At this time, he said, "Uncle Mo, I also want to have a try."

"Then should we go to the dueling platform or just fight in my cave residence? With me watching, there won't be any injuries." Mo Yuan put forward two suggestions.

Ling Qing struggled in his heart. He could fight freely in the dueling platform, but it would also attract the attention of other disciples of the sect. It would be fine if he won, but if he lost in the hands of a junior like Shi Xuan, it wouldn't look good. Therefore, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's fight in your cave residence. Don't spread the matter of our Phecda Peak."

The other three were a little hesitant, but since Ling Qing, the most senior Divine Soul Stage elder, had made such a suggestion, they couldn't refuse. They nodded and said, "Let's do it here."

When Mo Yuan heard this, he pointed his finger. Suddenly, a vast starry sky appeared in front of everyone. The boundless deep black sky was densely packed with stars. Everyone stood in this starry sky, and the cave residence disappeared without a trace. This was one of the magical Taoist techniques that high-grade Jindan Grandmaster obtained when he achieved Jindan, and he could sense the laws of heaven and earth: Illusory Void.

The advantages that high-grade Jindan Grandmaster had over middle-grade Jindan Grandmaster were that, in addition to the fact that he didn't need elixirs to advance to Yin Spirit and had a chance to achieve Primordial Spirit, he could practice spells and Taoist techniques 20% faster than middle-grade Jindan Grandmaster. Moreover, because of his understanding of the essence of Taoist techniques, he would spend less time refining magic tools and spiritual tools. Of course, the most important point was that when he achieved high-grade Jindan, he could sense the laws of heaven and earth. Just like getting a small innate magical power, he could get one to three Taoist techniques. These magical Taoist techniques were between the third and the fourth rank.

Moreover, if one of the magical Taoist techniques was compatible with the life-bonded magic tool, then this magical Taoist technique would be integrated into the life-bonded magic tool, improving the life-bonded magic tool's restriction by one layer. For example, when the life-bonded magic tool was perfected, and his cultivation was improved when he achieved Jindan, he was very close to becoming a spiritual tool. Then, at this time, the life-bonded magic tool would directly become a spiritual tool with seven or eight layers of Tiangang restriction. After that, it would take more than ten years to reach the first layer of perfection.

Among these dao techniques, the Illusory Void was the one that appeared most often.
