The demon rampage in the Demon Ruins of Swords Gate, sacrificing thousands of upper house disciples to awaken the spirit of Tian Myriad Mother. Many of the Qi Practitioners' disciples were killed, it could be said that the entire sect was annihilated. This incident caused a huge uproar in Swords Gate.
The higher ups of Swords Gate were enraged, it could be said that this was the biggest humiliation the Swords Gate had ever suffered since its establishment. Among the upper house disciples that died, many of them were from the top ten clans of the Great Wilderness, some of them were even the children of the clan masters!
One after another, the elders walked out from the palaces high up in Swords Gate Mountain and entered the Demon Ruins to search for the demon Qi Practitioners and the spirit of Tian Myriad Mother.
This incident caused a huge uproar, but there were also rumors that there was a traitor in Swords Gate, someone had colluded with the demons in the Demon Ruins and was plotting against them.
After tens of days, the situation calmed down, the elders of Swords Gate sealed the Demon Ruins, forbidding anyone from entering.
However, this had nothing to do with Zhong Yue anymore.
Elder Pu rushed over immediately, he saw Ting Lanyue and the others, he was both happy and sad, he had over a hundred disciples under his wing, but now, there were only a few dozen of them left.
Ting Lanyue, He Chengchuan and the others stepped forward, they bowed and said, "Elder Pu, it's all thanks to Junior Martial Brother Zhong that we could escape from the Demon Ruins."
The few of them spoke quickly and told him about their experiences in the Demon Ruins.
Elder Pu was moved, he looked at Zhong Yue from head to toe, he nodded slowly and said, "Zhong Shan Clan's Zhong Yue? What a young and promising man. You saved my disciples, your talent is outstanding, and you've received the quintessence of my 【Spring Thunderbolt Swords Skill】, I would like to take you as my disciple …. "
Ting Lanyue winked at Zhong Yue, signaling him to agree.
Zhong Yue thought for a moment, he shook his head and said, "Thank you, Elder Pu, but if Elder Pu takes me as your disciple, I'm afraid that the Tian Feng Clan will be displeased. If Elder Pu doesn't mind, I would like to attend the lectures often, as long as I'm not Elder Pu's disciple, Elder Pu wouldn't want to offend the Tian Feng Clan. "
Initially, he was eager to become the disciple of a Qi Practitioner, but now, he no longer had such expectations, he even wished that he didn't have a teacher.
"The 【Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art】 that Xin Huo taught me is too strong, the speed of my cultivation is too fast, of my cultivation speed is too fast, it has only been a few days and I've already reached the level of the Soul! If I were to become a disciple of any Qi Practitioner, this cultivation technique would definitely be exposed! "
Zhong Yue thought in his heart, If my cultivation technique is exposed, Swords Gate will definitely find Xin Huo and if Xin Huo goes berserk ….
"Alright."
Elder Pu smiled and said, "You saved my disciple, of course I will repay you. You're still lacking a soul weapon, right? "
He looked at Zhong Yue and saw the two mutated mantis demon arm bones on Zhong Yue's back, each of them looked like a ten feet long sickle while the corpse of the Tian elephant demon Qi Practitioner was not far away from him. He said, "Strength is your forte, and your psyche is one of the strongest among your peers. You can wield two soul weapons. I will use Black Iron and Black Gold to refine two Black Gold Soul Weapons for you. Twenty days later, come to the Knowledge Teaching Pavilion to see me, and you'll be able to see your soul weapon! "
Ting Lanyue, He Chengchuan and the others couldn't help but feel envious. It wasn't difficult for a Qi Practitioner like Elder Pu to refine a soul weapon, it would take at most two to three days for him to refine a soul weapon. Yet, Elder Pu asked Zhong Yue to retrieve the soul weapons after twenty days, it could be seen that the two soul weapons he was going to refine were extraordinary!
Black Iron and Black Gold could already be forged into high quality soul weapons, with the addition of Elder Pu's help, these two soul weapons would be extremely rare in the upper house, even the core disciples of the big clans might not be able to possess such treasures!
Zhong Yue was overjoyed, he thanked Elder Pu profusely and smiled at Ting Lanyue, "Senior martial sister, since Elder Pu has used the Black Gold of this demon Qi Practitioner to refine two soul weapons for me, then I don't want the rest of the Black Gold, senior martial sister and the other senior martial brothers can share it equally."
Ting Lanyue quickly said, "How can that be? This demon Qi Practitioner was dragged back by junior martial brother, logically speaking, you should get the biggest share. No matter what, Junior Martial Brother Zhong deserves another share. To be honest, if the rest of the Black Gold is sold through the Dating Clan, each of us will get at least eight hundred Yuling Pellets! "
Zhong Yue was shocked, eight hundred Yuling Pellets!
The Swords Gate would distribute ten Yuling Pellets to the upper house disciples every month, eight hundred of them would take six to seven years!
Ting Lanyue smiled and said, "Junior martial brother, you are still tempted. After I sell the Black Gold, I will come back to you. "
They parted ways, Zhong Yue walked towards his own courtyard, he contacted Xin Huo in his psyche ocean, he said, "Xin Huo, Swords Gate has been around for over ten thousand years, how could that Tian Myriad Mother still be alive?"
"You may not know this, but the gods are different from you. Whether it is the human race or the demon race, they only have the soul but not the spirit. The spirit and the soul are two different things, only by becoming a Qi Practitioner can one merge the soul and spirit. "
Xin Huo explained, "For example, that little brat named Elder Pu, he has cultivated the Soul and Spirit as One, the mountain god is his soul, he can forge his own soul into a totem for the people to worship. In the future, if this little brat dies, his soul and spirit will be tightly bonded together, as long as the spirit is there, the soul will be there! And the way to preserve the spirit is through the worship, his soul may not dissipate due to the worship of the people, and thus, his soul will be preserved to enjoy the worship. At that time, he will be the god, the mountain god! If the worship is strong enough, it can even forge a golden body for his soul, resurrecting him from the dead! "
Zhong Yue was enlightened, the ancestor of the demon race, Tian Myriad Mother, was a demon god, although she was dead, her spirit must not have been killed by the ancestors of Swords Gate, it was still in hiding. If the demons in the Demon Ruins had been worshipping her in the dark, then Tian Myriad Mother's spirit might have survived.
"The spirit can be used like this? The Qi Practitioners forge the spirit and soul as one, it seems like they are trying to protect their own soul, so that it won't dissipate after death. "
Zhong Yue's understanding of the spirit deepened, he said, "I wonder if that Fang Jiange killed Tian Myriad Mother's spirit …."
"No!"
Xin Huo said straightforwardly, "Not long after you all left the Demon Ruins, I sensed an evil aura leaving, it should be Tian Myriad Mother's spirit."
Zhong Yue was shocked, he exclaimed, "Tian Myriad Mother left the Demon Ruins? There were some elders who entered the Demon Ruins to search for her, how did she leave? "
"Of course, she was brought out of the Demon Ruins by one of the elders."
Xin Huo said indifferently, "Without the worship of the demons outside the Demon Ruins, Tian Myriad Mother's spirit will die soon, unless she can find a body, a body that her spirit can reside in. In my opinion, the person who brought her away must have already found a body for her, and now, Tian Myriad Mother has become a member of Swords Gate, no one will be able to recognize her. "
"Tian Myriad Mother has become a member of Swords Gate?"
Zhong Yue suppressed the shock in his heart, he murmured, "This is bad … Xin Huo, can you sense whose body Tian Myriad Mother is in?"
"She is now hiding in someone else's body, her senses are blocked by the body."
Xin Huo laughed and said, "If I met with that person, I would be able to sense her, but now, I can't. Interesting, the traitor of Swords Gate spent so much effort to get Tian Myriad Mother out of the Demon Ruins, he must have some ulterior motives. Heehee, this is going to be fun …. "
At the same time, in a great hall that looked like a ganoderma on the mountainside of Swords Gate, a thirteen-fourteen-year-old girl was curiously examining her own body, she looked left and right, she suddenly laughed and said, "Who would have thought that I would be hiding in the body of an animal, hahaha, how ironic! Don't you think so? "
A silhouette stood in the dark, he heard her words and laughed, "Tian Myriad Mother, the humans are the livestock of the celestial race, but you have been suppressed by them for so many years, this is the real irony. If it wasn't for me, your descendants, who knows how long it would have taken for you to escape. "
Tian Myriad Mother giggled and said, "I also didn't think that I, the demon god of the demon race, would be saved by the archenemy of the demon race, a celestial race! You went through so much trouble and schemed to save me. What exactly do you want to do? "
The voice of the person in the dark came, "I want the thing under the Swords Gate Mountain."
Tian Myriad Mother's face changed drastically, her face was gloomy, "The thing under the ground? Who are you, how do you know …. "
"Since I'm a celestial, of course I know some secrets."
"Since you know, then you must know how terrifying it would be if the thing under the ground were to come out!"
"Of course I know."
The person in the dark said placidly, "I have full confidence that I can control that thing. Tian Myriad Mother, I saved you because I need your help. Even without your help, this Swords Gate will be mine sooner or later, the thing under the Swords Gate will be mine too! "
Tian Myriad Mother humphed coldly, after a moment, she said, "I haven't regained my strength yet, how can I help you?"
"I can wait for you to regain your strength. Tian Myriad Mother, this body of yours is the body of an outer hall disciple of Swords Gate, go cultivate in the outer hall first, then become a Qi Practitioner. When you have regained some of your strength, I will still need your help! You are the spirit of a demon god, don't disappoint me. "
Tian Myriad Mother humphed coldly, she went down the mountain and headed straight for the upper house of Swords Gate.
In the courtyard, Zhong Yue did not have the Yuling Pellet, he did not dare to cultivate the 【Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art】, he had been cultivating the 【Spring Thunderbolt Swords Skill】 and the 【Jiao Dragon Winding Body Totem Art】.
The 【Spring Thunderbolt Swords Skill】 and the 【Jiao Dragon Winding Body Totem Art】 have many more wonders!
Every time he visualized the two arts, he would gain different insights. The 【Spring Thunderbolt Swords Skill】 was an offensive art, while the 【Jiao Dragon Winding Body Totem Art】 was a physique refining art. Now that he had combined the two arts, cultivating them together with the thunder totem turned into a Jiao Dragon, he was able to discover even more wonders. Zhong Yue could not help but immerse himself in the joy of cultivation.
He realized that the combination of the two arts could improve his physique even faster than before, the thunder totem turned into a Jiao Dragon coiling around his body, the lightning refined his body, and with a thought, his strength burst out like a bolt of lightning!
This brand new physique refining art was much stronger than the simple 【Jiao Dragon Winding Body Totem Art】, it could improve his physique even faster!
The other upper house disciples did not think much of the physique refining art, but he did not slack off, instead, he was getting stronger and stronger!
Zi la!
Lightning flashed in his body, the lightning Jiao Dragon's body passed through his skin, muscles, bones, and even his blood, filling his body with extremely strong electric currents, purifying the impurities in his body, and even the energy of the lightning was faintly seeping into his body, hiding within his body!
After cultivating for six to seven days, Zhong Yue felt that the physique refining art had reached a bottleneck, it could no longer improve his physique as much as before, he thought, It must be because my 【Jiao Dragon Winding Body Totem Art】 did not receive the true quintessence, I can't improve it any further … There are still more than ten days before Elder Pu finishes forging the soul weapon, I might as well go see Shui Qingyan. After all, I have promised her that I will meet her in the female house. Besides, I wonder if she has been to the Demon Ruins ….
Zhong Yue walked out of the courtyard and headed straight to the female house, he saw a few male upper house disciples sneaking around outside the female house, peeking at him from afar.
Zhong Yue was puzzled, he shook his head and walked into the female house.
"Pu! Someone just barged into the female house! "
The eyeballs of the sneaky male disciples almost popped out, they said in shock, "Lustful, lustful! This person even dares to barge into the female house! "
"Will he be beaten to death by those girls?"
There was a stone tablet erected at the corner of the female house, it said, "Male disciples trespassing into the female house, kill without mercy!"
