Zhang Yu saw that in addition to the murderous aura that surged out of Patriarch Yuan Tong's body, there was also a glowing mist in the depths of his body.
However, if one looked carefully, this mist seemed to be formed from the convergence of meridian-like light, and it was the only thing left in his body.
He knew what it was.
It should be some kind of mystic ability that Patriarch Yuan Tong possessed.
Once a cultivator became a Xuan Zun, he would jump out of the world and be reborn. His body would be different from a mortal from the inside out.
The mystic ability was the ability of a cultivator who was reborn.
This was different from Divine Abilities and Daoist techniques, which were integrated with the cultivator's life. It was just like breathing for ordinary people, which was an innate ability. The only difference was that some people had more mystical abilities, while others had less.
It was worth mentioning that the mystic abilities possessed by a Xuan Zun did not appear all at once when the cultivator attained Dao. Instead, they would appear when the cultivator's cultivation base improved, or when he encountered some opportunities, or when he suddenly had an epiphany.
Therefore, even if some mystic abilities existed in the cultivator's body, there was a certain possibility that they could never be summoned out.
However, there was another option.
Some mystic abilities could be awakened or changed by consuming some heavenly materials and earthly treasures. There were also some methods that could be seized from others through some means or ritual.
Although the mystic ability had various magical uses, its main function was to protect one's life, which was especially important in a battle.
An unfathomable mystic ability, when combined with various divine abilities and magical items, could often play a role in reversing the situation.
Instead, if several mystic abilities that could cooperate with each other were put together, they could make each other stronger, and their battle strength would be greatly improved.
However, there were also mystic abilities that conflicted with each other and could not be used together. The negative example here was Daoist Long.
'Flawless' and 'Resurrection', any one of the mystic abilities could be said to be superior.
As long as a Flawless cultivator was injured but did not die, he would gradually have the ability to resist the means that hurt him. As for 'Resurrection', even if a drop of blood was left, he could be reborn.
The two seemed to be compatible on the surface, but in reality, they could not complement each other. This was because everything he had accumulated in the Unblemished Realm would be gone once he returned. Thus, Taoist Master Long had to make sure that he was as careful as possible in order to unleash his full strength. In this way, his "return" would be of little value.
However, this was not something that could not be changed. As a cultivator's cultivation level increased, Xuan Yi could also continue to change, although it was very difficult. If Daoist Long were to remove the flaws in his life, then his combat power would be far from what it was before.
Zhang Yu deduced that Bai Xiu's Master had spent so much effort to set up this formation because he wanted to seize the mystic power that originally belonged to Patriarch Yuan Tong.
This Xuan Yi might not be useful to others, but it must be very important to Bai Xiu's teacher. Otherwise, he wouldn't have left behind such an elaborate setup.
Now that there wasn't much baleful aura left in Patriarch Yuan Tong's body, it seemed like he only needed to stretch out his hand and snatch the Xuan Yi. At the same time, he could also destroy the arrangement of Bai Xiu's teacher.
However, he didn't plan to do so.
If he wanted it, he would go and take it openly. He wouldn't do such a sneaky thing in private. Moreover, cultivators were all about bearing responsibilities. Would he really take advantage of it after taking it? That wasn't necessarily the case.
Moreover, the reason he'd returned here was merely to prevent Ancestor Yuan Tong's corpse from being used by others and causing an even greater calamity. Since he'd already confirmed that annihilating this fellow would not cause any more unpredictable changes, he could act at ease. As for everything else, it wasn't important when compared to this matter.
After making up his mind, he stood still. Behind him, an infinite amount of clear light bloomed, illuminating the entire cave in a flash.
The clear light fell on the two rivers of baleful aura. Like the scorching sun melting snow, the two rivers of baleful aura, red and black, immediately turned into wisps of smoke and rose up before evaporating into nothingness. As the light grew stronger, the baleful aura gradually retreated until it was in front of Patriarch Yuan Tong's body.
With his ability, it was only a matter of an instant to destroy this body. However, to ensure that the source of the baleful aura wouldn't leak out after it exploded, he would need to put in more effort.
But after all, this thing had been worn down for decades. What was left was nothing to worry about.
After the light shone for almost half a summer, the body left behind by the evil cultivator had completely turned into nothingness. Only the jade plate used to imprison the evil cultivator on his back remained.
Zhang Yu could see at this moment that the jade plate was engraved with dense Taoist talismans. It seemed that there was something mysterious hidden in it. It didn't want him to see it and suddenly disappeared.
At the same time, the huge Taoist talisman above also flickered a few times before it was completely extinguished. Only a trace of peeling gold dust floated down from above.
At this moment, he suddenly felt something and glanced at a certain place. He immediately knew that Bai Xiu's teacher must have noticed his actions.
He thought for a moment and remembered that this person seemed to be a court steward. He had quite a bit of influence in Xuanting. However, Xuanting was a place of order. No matter how great his influence was, he couldn't cover the sky with one hand.
However, after this incident, he also realized that the mysteries that cultivators possessed seemed to be more useful than he imagined. It seemed that he should pay more attention to this matter in the future.
He looked at the sky. Speaking of which, after the rubbings about the creation of cultivators were spread out, who ended up in the end?
When he was destroying Patriarch Yuan Tong's body, his incarnation was still sitting in the Kui Manor. After explaining the matter to Xu Chengtong, he sent a message to the others.
After receiving the message, An Xiaolang was the first to return to the manor.
As soon as he entered the main hall, he saw that Zhang Yu's body was shrouded in a clear mist that made it difficult to see his face. There was an ethereal feeling that he was out of this world. He said with some reverence, "Teacher, is that you?"
Zhang Yu's current cultivation was different from before. As a Xuan Zun, if a mortal saw him, they would definitely not be able to bear it. Unless they had the protection of the Xuanting Seal, they would have to conceal themselves. He said, "You came quickly."
When An Xiaolang heard his voice, he relaxed and said proudly, "After receiving teacher's message, I immediately set off. I came by the flying boat that I built myself. I engraved my name on the flying boat. I only checked it a little along the way and came over, so no one can be faster than me. "
Zhang Yu nodded slightly and said, "Sincerity will lead to gains. When you gain something, you will be happy. I hope you can maintain this sincerity when you come down."
An Xiaolang was quick-witted. He looked at him and asked, "Teacher, are you leaving the Kui Manor?"
Zhang Yu raised his head to look outside and said, "When everyone is here, I will explain everything together."
An Xiaolang replied with an 'oh'. This time, he obediently waited at the side.
About half an hour later, footsteps sounded outside the manor. A golden figure darted into the hall from outside. However, this time, when Miao Danjun saw Zhang Yu, he did not approach him directly. Instead, he stopped in front of his seat and looked at him with some confusion in his eyes.
Zhang Yu reached out his hand. It looked carefully and came to his hand. Finally, it burrowed under his hand. He reached out and rubbed the little leopard's head. Only then did the leopard return to its original form and sit beside him.
After a while, Daoist Zuo, Yan Yuming, Li Qinghe, Qing Shu, Qing Xi, and the others walked in together and bowed to him at the same time.
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "I called you here today because I will be going to Xuanting to report on my work. I will leave the outer layer soon. I don't know how long I will be gone, so there are some things that I need to take care of."
He first looked at Yan Yuming and said, "Yu Ming."
Yan Yuming quickly bowed and said, "Teacher, this disciple is here."
Zhang Yu said, "Your mind is pure, but your personality is a little jumpy. You must read the Daoist book I gave you carefully. If you can understand its meaning and find your own heart, you can look forward to the future."
Yan Yuming said seriously, "This disciple will remember."
Zhang Yu said, "I will also give you a scripture and twelve seals. Study it carefully." As soon as he finished speaking, a ray of light fell and shone on his body.
Yan Yuming bowed and said happily, "This disciple thanks Teacher for the scripture!"
Zhang Yu looked at An Xiaolang and said, "Zhi Zhi."
An Zhi Zhi stood up and said, "Teacher, this disciple is here."
Zhang Yu said, "You don't lack anything, but you still have doubts in your heart. No matter how you choose your future path, you and I are still teacher and student. I will give you a talisman that can save your life three times at critical moments." As he said this, he stretched out his hand and pointed. A jade talisman flew in front of An Xiaolang.
An Zhi Zhi held the talisman with both hands and carefully put it away. He then bowed and said, "Thank you, Teacher."
He raised his head again and said, "Teacher, when this disciple created those creations, I felt very happy. However, cultivating the Dao is also very good. This disciple doesn't know how to choose. Teacher said that this disciple will be able to come into contact with the light of the heart in about ten years. This disciple wants to make a decision at that time. "
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "I said before that the higher-ups won't interfere with this matter. However, as a teacher, I have to say one more thing. The majority of people in this world are unable to decide their own future path. It is a fortunate thing that you are able to choose. However, once you have made your decision, do not hesitate and do not waste your talent. "
An Zhi Zhi said seriously, "Teacher, I will remember."
Zhang Yu looked at Daoist Zuo and said, "Daoist Zuo."
Daoist Zuo quickly stood up and said respectfully, "Patrol Officer, I am here."
Qing Shu and Yan Yuming didn't feel anything, but Daoist Zuo himself was a Dao cultivator. When he saw the clear light and jade mist around Zhang Yu and heard that he was going to Xuanting to report his work, he already had some guesses. At this moment, even with his shrewdness, he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.
Zhang Yu said, "After I leave, everything will be as usual. You should also take care of the Wei Clan's army. If you need me for something urgent, you can come to this manor with my talisman."
Daoist Zuo said solemnly, "I will definitely do what the Patrol Officer says."
Zhang Yu nodded and looked at Li Qinghe and the others, saying, "Qinghe, Qingshu, Qingxi, you guys stay here and take care of the manor. After I report my work, I will make arrangements."
Li Qinghe and the others respectfully said yes.
After Zhang Yu gave his instructions, he rubbed Lord Miao Danjun. Then his figure slowly turned into a cloud of clear light and jade mist in front of everyone's eyes, and then disappeared.
In the Qingyang Upper Continent, Zhang Yu was sitting cross-legged on the wasteland.
This was originally the place where Ancestor Yuan Tong was imprisoned. After he sat there for a few days, the original wasteland gradually turned into a wetland full of vitality.
At this time, he opened his eyes and looked up. He saw that a huge crack suddenly melted in the sky, revealing a clear and bright light inside, and there was the sound of immortal spiritual music coming from it.
After a while, a magnificent golden light shone down and fell on him. He could see that there was a more profound world behind it.
He knew that the time had come. He shook his sleeves and stood up. Then his body slowly rose, following the light. As his sleeves fluttered, he had already floated from the ground to the distant sky, and finally entered the bright light.
When he entered, the crack slowly closed, and the cloud light above also converged together. In the end, it completely disappeared, leaving only a vast land that was brushed by the gentle wind.
