Immortal Palace Longevity

Holding the thick black book in his hand, Zhou Yunlong was a little confused and full of doubts.

What can this book change?

He thought to himself, but didn't dare to say it out loud, just nodded silently.

Although he didn't get any substantial help, after hearing a few words of encouragement, this boy finally cheered up a little and was no longer under great pressure.

As long as you do everything, there will always be opportunities, right?

"Read this book carefully and adapt to the world of cultivation as soon as possible."

"As long as you change your mindset, it is not difficult to develop the Holy Fire Sect. The key is whether you can make up your mind."

"Okay, go down."

After saying a few words, Liu Yu waved his hand and signaled the other party to withdraw.

The resources invested in Zhou Yunlong are enough to train more than a dozen foundation-building warriors, and he can't continue to invest more.

After all, Liu Yu has more than one choice, and he is not a gambler who loses red eyes.

Even if this move fails, he can find a few spiritual root qualifiers in the future to teach the Holy Fire Sect's skills, which is considered to fulfill the original promise.

This time, it was a more serious one. I even made a special trip for this, so I can be considered to have a clear conscience.

"Now, you should be satisfied."

Sitting alone in the hall, Liu Yu took off the broken sword from his waist and stared at the seemingly ordinary, even a little broken long sword.

After completely transforming into a spiritual treasure, this sword has completely lost its former fiery red color, and the whole body is exquisite gray.

If you hold it in your hand and feel it carefully, you can still feel the broken and desolate atmosphere, which makes people feel uneasy.

Even the tip of the sword is missing a piece.

But this does not mean that the broken sword is incomplete. It is this incomplete and imperfect body that gave birth to spirituality and became a spiritual treasure.

The fundamental nature has changed. Even if the lost sword tip is found, it is impossible for it to become perfect again.

Just as spilled water cannot be collected, and broken realms cannot be reunited!

The broken sword body itself is a kind of perfection, just as its name suggests.

"Even if it is a spiritual treasure, there will be flaws?!"

Touching the sword body, Liu Yu sighed slightly.

"Buzz buzz buzz"

Suddenly, the Ruined Sword trembled slightly, and a slight sword sound rang in the ear.

The sword sound was not loud, but it was clearly audible in the quiet room.

"It's the sword spirit!"

Liu Yu's face lit up.

The moment the sword sounded, he clearly sensed the fluctuations of the sword spirit. This was the first time he got a response from the sword spirit.

"There is indeed an unclear cause and effect between the Ruined Sword and the Holy Fire Sect."

"In this case, in order to truly let the sword spirit recognize its master, I really have to support it well."

Touching the Ruined Sword that had calmed down, Liu Yu had this thought in his mind.

I don't know if it's an illusion, he always feels that the sword's resistance to him is not as serious as before, I don't know if it's because of resolving some of the cause and effect.

Although he relied on the Immortal Mansion to forcibly refine this sword, the spiritual treasure is not an ordinary magic weapon after all, and has incomplete wisdom.

It can't resist the will of the master, but it can be passive and even secretly drag its feet.

Liu Yu didn't want to encounter this situation when he activated it, so he had been actively communicating with the sword spirit, but he didn't achieve any results.

"Born because of the Holy Fire Sect, perhaps we should start from this aspect to make this sword recognize its master."

"It may not be useful to rely on time to wear it out, because the spiritual treasure is both a dead thing and a living thing, and its existence time must be much longer than that of living things."

Various thoughts flashed through his mind, and he finally decided to start from the Holy Fire Sect.

As for how to communicate with the sword spirit, Liu Yu actually had a guess in his mind.

It's just that his cultivation was too low in the past, and he was not sure about acting under the eyes of the God Shamen, so he didn't take any risks for the sake of caution.

But now that his cultivation has reached the Jindan stage, most of his concerns have disappeared. As long as he doesn't encounter the old monster of the Nascent Soul, he will basically not worry about his life.

Arranging Zhou Yunlong to sit on the throne of the Son of God is just the first step.

Next, Liu Yu has a second step, and maybe he can resolve some of the causes and effects of the Ruined Sword again.

Thinking of this, Liu Yu's powerful consciousness spread out, instantly breaking through the barrier of the low-level formation and locking Zi Xin's position.

He sent out a spiritual voice to summon this girl in.

...

"Squeak"

The door was opened, and soft light shone into the hall.

Zi Xin, who was very old, with wrinkles and dark spots on her face, walked into the hall with some doubts in her eyes.

Everything had just been discussed, and she didn't understand why the Supreme Elder summoned her.

"Your subordinate greets the Supreme Elder!"

Although she was confused, Zi Xin still saluted in a proper manner.

"Stand up."

"I summoned you this time to learn about the life of the previous generation of the Holy Son."

"When the previous generation of the Holy Son died, I promised to write a biography for him. Although it was a few decades late, it should not be too late now."

Liu Yu said lightly.

As the first owner of the Ruined Sword and the Holy Son of the previous generation, starting from this aspect, it should be possible to resolve some of the cause and effect, right?

"Write a biography?"

"I understand."

Zixin nodded, and at Liu Yu's suggestion, sat on a chair.

Reminiscence flashed in her eyes, as if she was recalling something, with inexplicable complex emotions.

Tang Tianbao truly fought for the rise and revenge of the Holy Fire Sect throughout his life.

Although there was not much effect, the positive spirit convinced most of the followers.

So much so that decades later, some old followers who had not yet passed away still missed him.

After a silence of more than ten breaths, Zi Xin organized her words and slowly spoke:

"The first time I met the previous generation of the Holy Son was during a mission."

"At that time, my cultivation was only in the early stage of Qi Refining, and I was in the rookie stage and had not officially graduated from the Holy Hall."

"Every time I have to follow the predecessors to accumulate experience."

"And the predecessor who led my subordinates that time was the previous generation of the Holy Son. His cultivation was perfect at that time, and he had begun to emerge and showed his extraordinaryness far beyond his peers."

"......"

Speaking of Tang Tianbao, Zi Xin's voice was low and soft, echoing in the empty hall, with a trace of inexplicable sadness.

Liu Yu listened patiently, remembered every word of the woman's words, and finally summarized and sorted them out, and then wrote them in the book.

After a year of contact, he already knew Tang Tianbao's prestige in the Holy Fire Sect, but he didn't know how this prestige was accumulated.

As Zi Xin told the story, the doubts in his heart were finally slowly solved.

As Liu Yu imagined, Tang Tianbao's prestige was finally established through accumulation bit by bit.

If I am awe-inspiring mainly because of "force", then Tang Tianbao is "virtue".

For the sect, he always keeps his word and never breaks his promise. He has been born and died many times, which makes all those who know him convinced.

It is not just because he is the holy son designated by the supreme elder Shi Renjie.

The majesty established by the two methods can also be deeply rooted in people's hearts. In comparison, each has its own advantages and disadvantages, and there is no difference between high and low.

Most of the time, Liu Yu is willing to use the first method that is more effective, but he does not reject the second method.

Zi Xin's narration contains a lot of subjective emotions, and also contains many personal opinions, full of praise for Tang Tianbao.

The narration is not concise enough, and some words seem redundant.

However, Liu Yu did not urge him, as he still had this time.

"Not long after I established my foundation, the previous generation of Saint Sons suddenly died. Elder Shi decided to select the next generation of Saint Sons, and many of my peers in the church participated."

"Because I am a woman, I am not qualified to be a Saint Son, and I was very disappointed at the time."

"After layers of selection, the previous generation of Saint Sons finally stood out, and Zhou Ziwen was equally outstanding."

"No matter in terms of qualifications or contributions to the Holy Church, the two are equally matched."

"The final duel unfolded between the two."

"But in that battle, until the mana was exhausted, neither of them could determine the winner."

"What happened later, I don't know, but the next day Elder Shi suddenly announced that Tang Tianbao became the contemporary Saint Son."

"Although there were some doubts, the previous generation of Saint Sons had a good reputation before, and his contributions to the Holy Church were obvious to all. He also had the support of Elder Shi, so everyone agreed with him."

"The many outstanding performances since then also proved that Elder Shi's choice was not wrong."

"Later..."

While recalling and narrating, Zi Xin's speed of narration was not fast.

It was not until three or four hours later that she finished telling all the information she knew about Tang Tianbao.

Liu Yu asked the believers who were still alive and those who had contact with Tang Tianbao, and then waved his hand to let the woman leave.

Then, he began to summon the believers who had contact with Tang Tianbao and continued to collect relevant information.

Regarding the cause and effect of the Broken Sword, he was still concerned about this matter, and summoned all the contacts one by one to ask about Tang Tianbao.

It was not until seven days later that all the monks who had contact with him were summoned and all the monks' oral statements were listened to.

In the hall, Liu Yu sat at a wooden table with a blank book on the table.

After sorting out all the collected books and his understanding of them, he ground ink and picked up a pen and began to write slowly:

[I was born in a poor family. My parents were tenants of the landlord's family. Life was extremely hard. ]

[When I was seven years old, there was no rain in my hometown for several months, and a great famine broke out that was rare in a century.

In order to survive, my parents decided to take me away from the small mountain village and seek a living with distant relatives.

Although we were reluctant to leave our fields and familiar hometown, we had no choice to continue to survive. 】

【On a scorching morning, our family of three and many fellow villagers left their hometowns and embarked on a journey of escape. 】

【......】

【Unexpected events happened. Only half a month after leaving our hometown, and less than half of the journey, the team encountered robbers. 】

【In the chaos, my parents died at the hands of robbers, and only I survived by chance】

【Hate the impermanence of this world!!! 】

【Alone, without money and skills, no one was willing to take me in, and at most they would give me a white flour bun. 】

【After a long time of confusion, I was rescued by the "immortal master" and brought to the Holy Church, and once again found the feeling of "home". 】

【That period of time was the happiest time in my life! 】

【I could eat a full meal every day, and someone taught me to read and write. That was a treatment only for wealthy families! 】

【I grew up slowly and learned more about this world. I knew that I lived in a place called Xisha. 】

【When I was twelve years old, I tested my spiritual roots. I was very qualified. Fortunately, I had dual spiritual roots and also had fire spiritual roots.】

【From then on, I was trained by the Holy Church and officially embarked on the immortal path. 】

【I worked hard to cultivate. I didn't want to disappoint the expectations of my elders. My cultivation improved by leaps and bounds! 】

【I swear to protect this hard-won beauty, inherit the will of my ancestors, and make the Holy Church great again! 】

[This year, I was seventeen years old, and my cultivation level was the seventh level of Qi Refining. ]

[......]

"Huh"

Writing and stopping, Liu Yu didn't put down his pen until half a day had passed.

Based on the oral accounts of the followers of the Holy Fire Sect and his own experiences, he finally compiled a book "The Biography of Tang Tianbao".

In the book, Tang Tianbao's experience from a mortal to the late stage of foundation building is written from his first perspective.

There must be many omissions or untrue places in it, but it is difficult to trace things because things have changed, so we can only make do with it.

Of course, due to special reasons, Liu Yu also made some beautification when writing.

There is also no mention of Lingbao and the Holy Fire Secret Realm in "The Biography of Tang Tianbao".

"As a biography, my level should be pretty good."

"But unfortunately, this book can only stay in my library, destined to be read by only a few people."

"In this way, I have also fulfilled what I said at the beginning."

"You should be satisfied now, right?!"

Closing the book, Liu Yu muttered to the Ruined Sword.

"Buzz buzz"

The sword trembled slightly, but this time it did not make a sword sound, and I don't know whether it was satisfied or dissatisfied.

Seeing this, Liu Yu smiled slightly, knowing that after a try, he finally achieved some results.

There is a first time, there will be a second time.

Resolve some of the causal entanglements between the Ruined Sword and the Holy Fire Cult, so that the sword's resistance to oneself will be greatly reduced. After that, as long as you communicate frequently, there will always be a time to truly conquer it.

"At this point, this trip to Xisha has come to an end, and it is time to leave."

"Before crossing the Hengduan Mountains, there is one last thing to do."

Thinking of this, Liu Yu got up and left the Mingguang Tower, flying to the nearest fairy city, intending to take the teleportation array back to the State of Chu.

As for Zhou Yunlong, he stayed in Xisha and fought for the development of the Holy Fire Sect, which was considered to be true freedom.

The "Essentials of Demon Cultivation" recorded all practical tricks. As long as you read and study them carefully, it is not difficult to develop the Holy Fire Sect.

"But in this way, the reputation of this sect will take a sharp turn for the worse, and it will become a real demon sect?"

"But in the face of the survival of the sect, what does the so-called reputation count for?"

"I just took out a book and did not interfere with its development. The key is their own choice."

Liu Yu thought silently while flying.

He is not responsible for this.

In order to prevent Zhou Yunlong from dying suddenly and to resolve more spiritual treasures, he deliberately left two talismans before leaving.

As long as they do not provoke Jindan cultivators, the Holy Fire Sect is enough to deal with general crises.

If they do not know what is good for them and provoke Jindan forces or Shenshamen, it will be the fault of the Holy Fire Sect.

No matter what the result is, the promises Liu Yu made before getting the Ruined Sword have been fulfilled.

The resistance of the Ruined Sword was also eliminated.

He would not interfere with the rise and fall of the Holy Fire Sect.

"But even so, if we want to completely resolve the cause and effect, what we have done now is far from enough."

"The decline of the sword corresponds to the rise of the sword."

"Perhaps one day, the destruction of the Divine Shamen can completely resolve the cause and effect of the Ruined Sword and make the sword completely return to its heart?"

"But that is too far away. At least you have to reach the Nascent Soul Realm to really take action."

While flying, Liu Yu smiled slightly.

An hour later, he arrived at a large market and took the teleportation array back to the State of Chu.
