Returning to Peace
The materials used to form the body of a Spirit Puppet could be said to be all-encompassing. It could be spiritual wood, rare stone, or even a corpse as a shell to implant all kinds of rare materials.
When Wu Jing Xue was alive, he had cultivated the Nine Yin Extreme Evil Qi to perfection. The Extreme Evil Qi had already merged into his body and could not be removed.
Hence, to Wu Jing Xue, forming a Spirit Puppet from his corpse was undoubtedly the best choice.
When Mowang Gong formed a Spirit Puppet, the entire Liuyun Dynasty was in chaos.
After Wu Jingxue's death, the clans and forces under his command naturally fell apart. They did not dare to stay in the Imperial City for long. They either fled to other cities or hid in the mountains. Some of them even fled to other Imperial Dynasties. They were extremely cunning.
Xue Dangkong had already set up an inescapable net. He gathered hundreds of experts to guard the various passes. If they discovered any traitors, they would immediately kill them.
The situation was the same for the 64 cities of Liuyun.
In each city, there were branches of the Cloud Chamber of Commerce. When Yang Yan and the others arrived at the city, they used the spies of the Chamber of Commerce to find the nest of the traitors and set up a trap to kill them.
Faced with such a meticulous pursuit, the minds of the traitors gradually collapsed. In the end, most of them chose to give up and admit their crimes.
Just like that, in a short three days, the turbulent Liuyun Dynasty finally regained its former peace. There were no more disputes.
Due to the execution of these traitors, a large amount of wealth and resources gathered in the hands of the Cloud Chamber of Commerce from various cities and regions. The amount was so great that many people were shocked.
However, although they were shocked, few people were unhappy.
Wu Jing Xue died at the peak of the Qitian Peak. Naturally, the great power fell into the hands of the Cloud Chamber of Commerce. However, Chu Xingyun did not declare himself king. Instead, he returned the imperial power to the Tang Family and let them take control of the Empire.
Such an action showed that Chu Xingyun had no intention of fighting for hegemony, let alone interfering with Dynasty's affairs.
Although this enormous wealth belonged to the Soaring Cloud Chamber of Commerce, based on the Soaring Cloud Chamber of Commerce's style, they would definitely not divide themselves and oppress their people. Instead, they would vigorously build trade routes and create even more wealth.
Everyone was happy to see the imperial power rule the country and Yun Teng become rich. They couldn't wait to support it, so why would they stop it?
Time passed slowly. Winter was over, and soon, spring was about to arrive.
Today, the Imperial City was as lively as ever.
Countless martial artists walked through the streets, shouting and yelling. Sometimes, one could even see the majestic figures of the Imperial Guards patrolling the streets.
This scene was neat and orderly, causing the Imperial City to glow with vitality once more.
At this moment, inside Qitian Peak.
Dense pavilions and palaces stood towering from the foot of the mountain to the waist of the mountain. They were like an array of stars in the night sky, and they were scattered in a picturesque manner and faintly revealed a profound aura.
These pavilions and palaces were divided into several areas. There was an elixir area that specialized in refining elixirs, a weapon area that specialized in forging, a cultivation area, a discussion area, a trade area, and so on.
At the top of the Qitian Peak, the Soaring Cloud Palace still stood in the center, suppressing the Qi of the peak. Many pavilions and courtyards had appeared around the Soaring Cloud Palace, like stars surrounding the moon, surrounding the Soaring Cloud Palace.
These pavilions and courtyards were the residences of the core members of the Soaring Cloud Chamber of Commerce. Once something happened, it would be convenient for everyone to discuss it.
At this moment, if someone stood at the foot of the mountain and raised their head to look at the entire Qitian Peak, they would be surprised to find that the most dangerous peak of Drifting Cloud had become a world of its own. Although it was small, it had everything.
What was even more shocking was that the entire Qitian Peak was shrouded in misty clouds. It was like a fairyland, giving off an otherworldly feeling.
These misty clouds were Spiritual Fog.
In the past, Chu Xingyun had used five Mystic Spiritual Veins to generate fifty strands of Spiritual Qi from the Heavenly Saint Spiritual Pearl. He had combined them into three Spiritual Formations in one fell swoop to cut off the endless evil aura and laid the foundation for his final victory.
Although the five Mystic Spiritual Veins had exhausted all their Spiritual Qi, they had not disappeared. Instead, they had left behind Spiritual Vein Seeds.
Therefore, Lin Tianchong had placed the five Spiritual Vein Seeds into the Qitian Peak. Firstly, they could release Spiritual Qi to form Spiritual Formations and improve the cultivation environment of the Qitian Peak. Secondly, they could nourish the Spiritual Vein Seeds, allowing them to germinate and become real Spiritual Veins.
Because of this, the Qitian Peak had become the cultivation holy land of the Liuyun Dynasty. Everyone was racking their brains to set foot on the Qitian Peak and become a member of the Soaring Cloud Chamber of Commerce.
Squeak!
The door of the secret cultivation room opened and Chu Xingyun, dressed in black, walked out.
He raised his head and looked at the snowflakes floating in the air. A look of comfort appeared on his face as he took a deep breath. With him as the center, all the snowflakes within a ten-meter radius stopped and flickered with a faint snowy light.
Patter!
At this moment, the sound of heavy footsteps could be heard in the secret chamber.
Chu Xingyun turned his head and looked at the source of the sound. He smiled faintly and said, "How do you feel?"
In his field of vision, the person who had stepped out was dressed in black heavy armor. His facial features were resolute and his aura was domineering. On his back was a ferocious black halberd. The snowflakes fell, but before they could touch his body, they turned into nothingness.
This person was naturally Wu Jing Xue.
He walked up to Chu Xingyun and stretched his arms and legs. His eyes, which were looking into the void, suddenly flashed with a sharp light. In an instant, a gust of wind surged and countless halberd shadows swept through the void. It seemed as if they could tear the void apart.
The wind stopped and the halberd shadows dissipated.
Wu Jing Xue retracted his spiritual power and replied, "Although it is the body of a spiritual puppet, it is no different from flesh and blood. It is very comfortable to command. However, my cultivation seems to have dropped a lot. I am only at the First Sky of the Heavenly Spirit Realm."
"Of course."
Chu Xingyun was about to reply when Mowang Gong walked out of the secret cultivation room and smiled faintly. "The body of a martial artist can be divided into three parts. They are the body, the spirit sea, and the soul. After your body died, your soul was absorbed into the Heavenly Book of Reincarnation and your body condensed into a spiritual puppet. However, your spirit sea disappeared without a trace. Only the Heart of Heavenly Craft can replace it."
"The Heart of Heavenly Craft is my masterpiece. I spent hundreds of years and only created two of them. This item can replace the spirit sea and allow you to cultivate like an ordinary martial artist. However, your starting point is lower. You are only at the First Sky of the Heavenly Spirit Realm."
"I understand." Hearing Mowang Gong's explanation, Wu Jing Xue nodded.
In fact, he didn't feel too disappointed about his cultivation.
Although he was half-human and half-puppet at this moment, all the martial arts that he had cultivated in his previous life, including the most important Fiendish Evil Dragon Wu Ling, still existed.
As long as he cultivated diligently, his cultivation would return.
After all, he was no longer made of flesh and blood. Time and age didn't affect him at all.
"Young Master!"
Just as the three of them were talking, Tiger Chu's voice came from not far away.
Whoosh!
The sound of something breaking through the air rang out. Tiger Chu, who was wearing the Dreamy Cloud Profound Heavenly Armor, rushed over from the side. His cultivation had already reached the Spirit Gathering Realm. When he activated his spiritual power, he could activate the Dreamy Cloud Profound Heavenly Armor's spiritual mist. It was quite majestic and imposing.
"Just now, Luo Lan was still worried about you. She was wondering why you hadn't come out of seclusion yet. Just as she finished speaking, you …" Tiger Chu said as he walked. When he walked closer, his gaze landed on Chu Xingyun. He couldn't help but glance at Wu Jingxue, who wasn't far away.
Immediately, the words that he hadn't finished speaking stopped in an instant. They were stuck in his throat and emitted a strange sound of gurgling and gurgling.
"Wu Jing Xue, you actually didn't die!"
Moments later, a shocking roar exploded from Hu Chu's mouth.
