Nine Transformations of the True Spirit

After returning to Jiuxianzhou, Master Qingyou quietly came to a famous market thousands of miles away to search for spiritual objects and magic weapons.

He waited in the market for three years, participated in an auction, bought a piece of soul-nourishing wood, and found a place to practice in seclusion.

He cut off half of the soul-nourishing wood, performed a secret technique, absorbed all the spirituality in it, and his soul was restored to its original state.

Then Master Qingyou continued to look for spiritual objects for forming infants, but spiritual objects for forming infants were extremely precious. Even though Jiuxianzhou was rich in spiritual energy, they were extremely rare.

Master Qingyou flew tens of thousands of miles and passed through several markets, but could not find them.

After several hesitations, he decided to go to a secret cave of Wentian Sect.

All sects and families are well versed in the way of cunning rabbits having three burrows. They set up secret caves and treasures, leaving behind skills and spiritual objects, so that if the sect is in trouble, the inheritance will not be cut off.

Master Qingyou is a disciple of the head of Wentian Sect, and his status is extremely high. When the sect was destroyed, he was told by the head of the sect that all the secret caves were located.

The secret cave he was going to was the largest of all the secret caves, which contained thousand-year-old spiritual herbs, spiritual objects for forming infants, and all the skills of the Wentian Sect.

Before, he was worried that after the sect was destroyed, the monks in the sect would flee in all directions and the location of the secret cave would be leaked, so he did not dare to act rashly.

But he had been running around for several years and could not find the spiritual objects for forming infants, so he could only pin his hopes on the secret cave.

However, Master Qingyou had practiced for hundreds of years and was extremely cautious. He explored outside the secret cave for several months and tried several times during that period. There was no abnormality, so he entered the secret cave.

But someone set up a teleportation array in the secret cave, which teleported him to a dangerous place. Several Jindan monks had been waiting there for several years, specifically to ambush Master Qingyou.

The Wentian Sect has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, with a deep foundation, and acts in a domineering manner. It has deep hatred with several sects.

When these sects heard that Wentian Sect had been destroyed, they immediately searched for its monks, tortured them to find out the locations of several secret caves, set up killing arrays, and ambushed and killed the remaining disciples. True Man Qingyou was the top priority.

Fortunately, True Man Qingyou was powerful and cautious by nature. He was well prepared and killed two Jindan monks and escaped from the ambush.

But after this disaster, he was poisoned and the few magic weapons he had left were all destroyed. Only three ordinary magic weapons he got from Ziyang Sect monks were left.

True Man Qingyou was afraid that his enemies would come to him, so he did not dare to stay in Jiuxianzhou for a long time and fled to Qi through the teleportation array.

But he was deeply poisoned and his life was in danger. He was worried that he would die, so he accepted two foundation-building monks as registered disciples, gave them the token to open Wentian Ding, and ordered them to guard the space magic weapon.

One of the two disciples was surnamed Zhang and the other was surnamed Yu. The disciple surnamed Yu came from a small immortal cultivation family.

Chen Yuan only knew that the Yu family of Dingzhou was not the descendant of Qingyou Zhenren, but was just a disciple.

After Qingyou Zhenren recruited disciples, he entered the space magic weapon, closed his eyes to heal his wounds, and tried to survive from death, but he failed and his body withered.

Qingyou Zhenren was unwilling to die, so his soul escaped into the soul-nourishing tree, fell into a deep sleep, and lingered on.

It was not until Chen Yuan absorbed the spirituality from the soul-nourishing tree and attracted the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that he woke him up.

At this time, Qingyou Zhenren had been sleeping for a thousand years, and his soul was extremely weak. He did not dare to take over the body. He could only secretly absorb the spirituality of the soul-nourishing tree to warm his soul. At the same time, he sent the soul essence into Chen Yuan's soul space, leaving his own breath to prepare for taking over the body.

He was a peak Jindan cultivator with a high level of cultivation. The secret technique he used was also extremely mysterious, and Chen Yuan did not notice it at all.

It was not until a few days ago that Qingyou Zhenren's soul recovered to its peak state and Chen Yuan's consciousness was injured again that he took over the body.

But Chen Yuan had a jade disk to protect his soul, and Qing You Zhenren returned without success, but was destroyed by the power of the Zhou Tian stars.

But he was cruel and ruthless, and when he was dying, he took the initiative to leave a huge memory, trying to break Chen Yuan's mind.

He almost succeeded, but fortunately Chen Yuan had a solid soul and a firm mind. He had experienced this feeling again when he was reborn, so he was prepared and finally survived. Not only did he not collapse, but he also gained great benefits.

Chen Yuan was immersed in the memory of Qing You Zhenren, and spent his life from his perspective. His knowledge increased greatly, and he gained many secret skills and cultivation experience, and many difficult obstacles in cultivation were solved.

But Chen Yuan and Qing You Zhenren's skills were not compatible, and they were both practicing both the law and the body. Most of the secret skills could not be practiced. Only a few could be learned, and they had to wait until the Dan was formed.

His biggest gain was knowing the location of the ancient teleportation array.

This is the shocking secret mentioned by Qing You Zhenren. As long as Chen Yuan makes a vow, he will tell Chen Yuan about it, flee Qi, avoid the demonic calamity, and find a foundation-building cultivator for him to help him seize the body.

The teleportation array that can span two continents is a treasure, and even the Yuanying cultivators are coveting it.

This teleportation array is located in a remote place. It was found by Qing You Zhenren by chance. He strictly guarded this secret and no one else in the world knew it.

But Chen Yuan got all the memories of Qing You Zhenren, just like living for more than 300 years. His cautious and solid character became more calm and calm. Even if he heard the news of the ancient teleportation array, he did not change his face.

His thoughts flowed in his mind, thinking about the future path of cultivation.

Donghuazhou has few spiritual energy. Ninety percent of the spiritual herbs over a hundred years old are in the hands of large sects. The path of individual cultivators is blocked. In the huge Qi country, there are only two or three individual cultivators who have formed a pill by chance.

Chen Yuan can only rely on Lingyun Sect to get enough spiritual herbs, and he is willing to fight with demon cultivators for this.

Unless the six sects of Qi are defeated and Lingyun Sect is in danger of being destroyed, he will find another way out.

But that is just a helpless move. The spiritual herbs of large sects are in short supply, and even if independent cultivators are wealthy, they have nowhere to buy them.

Before receiving the memory of Master Qingyou, even if Lingyun Sect lost to the two demon sects and left Qi, Chen Yuan would not flee alone and become a casual cultivator again.

Hundred-year-old spiritual herbs can still be seen in the market, while 300-year-old spiritual herbs are much rarer, and 500-year-old and 800-year-old spiritual herbs are even more priceless.

Only with the support of a large sect can Jindan cultivators get one or two pills every few years. Otherwise, they can only absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, or take the trouble to collect spiritual herbs, practice as slow as a snail, and cannot form a Yuanying until death.

However, Jiuxianzhou is rich in spiritual energy and has no shortage of spiritual herbs. There are casual cultivators who build foundations everywhere, and casual cultivators who form Dan can also be seen everywhere. There are even casual cultivators who form Yuanying, establish sects, and dominate the area.

If the situation is not good, Chen Yuan can escape to Jiuxianzhou through the ancient teleportation array, and no longer have to fight with the demon cultivators. The originally dangerous and difficult situation will immediately become open and clear.

More importantly, the Nine Immortal Continent is rich in spiritual energy, and there are many monsters, which are even comparable to human cultivators. Among them, there are many with strong bloodlines, which makes it easier to find descendants of the True Spirit.

But a thousand years have passed, and no one knows whether there have been any changes in these thousand years, and whether the teleportation array can still be used. It needs to be investigated before it can be considered.

And unless it is forced, Chen Yuan is unwilling to be a casual cultivator.

Staying in Lingyun Sect, Jin Luoheng takes good care of him, Sun Congyao and Shen Danmei have a close relationship with him, and Mo Jingchun and Yi Jin have been friends with him for more than ten years.

He can exchange spiritual herbs from the Alchemy Pavilion without having to search hard, and can practice in the cave without worrying about foreign enemies... All these are things that casual cultivators need to worry about.

Therefore, Chen Yuan only regards the ancient teleportation array as a fallback. If the six sects of Qi State win, he will naturally stay in Lingyun Sect to practice with peace of mind. If he cannot find the descendants of the True Spirit in Donghua Continent, it will not be too late to go to Nine Immortal Continent.

If the situation is critical, Chen Yuan will go to Jiuxianzhou through the ancient teleportation array to avoid fighting with the demon cultivators.

With a plan in mind, Chen Yuan calmed down, closed his eyes and meditated, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

The Chilong pendant on his waist lit up with a faint light, adding a touch of light to the dim training room.

…

Three days later, Chen Yuan's true essence was fully restored, and he stood up and walked out of the cave.

He spread his consciousness, feeling the huge consciousness that covered most of Yunyin Peak and extended more than 450 feet, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

True Man Qingyou was destroyed by the power of the Zhoutian stars, and the essence of his soul merged into Chen Yuan's soul space. His consciousness soared by more than 130 feet, more than twice that of the cultivators of the same level, far exceeding the cultivators in the late stage of foundation building.

Moreover, his consciousness has become much more condensed than before, and his perception is more delicate. Within the coverage of his consciousness, no matter how small the movement is, he can't hide it.

If he met Zuo Heng and the other two again, the young cultivator's voice transmission would reach his ears without missing a word, so he would not want to hide anything.

Chen Yuan retracted his consciousness, drove the Duyun Boat, passed through the cloud wall, identified the direction, and fled to the northwest.

Not far away, Chen Yuan saw a Lingyun Sect cultivator patrolling in the air.

Seeing him fly out of the mountain gate, this person did not come up to ask, but just bowed and nodded.

Chen Yuan smiled and returned the greeting. After the person left, he activated the Duyun Boat's escape speed. In just one hour, he arrived at Lingyun Market.

The Demon Sect invaded on a large scale, and the demon cultivators in various places were even more chaotic. Lingyun Market was more depressed than three years ago. There were few pedestrians on the street, and many shops were closed.

Baoguang Pavilion was still open to welcome guests, but it was also deserted, with only three female cultivators to receive guests.

Chen Yuan walked in, explained his purpose, and went up to the second floor under the guidance of a beautiful female cultivator, and met Nie Ruyue.

The two sat down as host and guest, and Nie Ruyue personally served spiritual tea and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Chen, are you here to take away the silver sword?"

More than ten years have passed, and she is still wearing a light-colored open-necked skirt, a transparent silk shawl, and a smile in the corner of her eyes, making people feel like spring breeze.

Chen Yuan took the spiritual grass, sipped it lightly, and said with a smile: "Master Nie is right, Chen is here to take the sword."

He put down the teacup, touched the storage bag, and a small pile of medium-grade spiritual stones appeared in front of him. He raised his hand and waved it over.

"These are the spiritual stones agreed upon, please accept them, Master Nie."

The spiritual stones slowly flew in front of Nie Ruyue, and she glanced at them and saw that there were exactly nineteen pieces.

Nie Ruyue nodded slightly, raised her sleeves and brushed the spiritual stones, and said with a smile: "Please wait for a moment, fellow Daoist Chen, I will take the flying sword now."

She stood up and walked out of the quiet room. After a while, she came back again, holding a flying sword in her right hand.

This flying sword is about one foot long, hanging in Nie Ruyue's palm, motionless. The sword body is pure silver, but it is not eye-catching. Instead, it gives people a sense of heaviness. It does not contain any mixed colors or any patterns, and exudes a sharp aura.

Nie Ruyue raised her hand and waved, and the flying sword slowly flew in front of Chen Yuan, saying: "Please take a look, Taoist friend."

Chen Yuan took the flying sword, injected true energy, and the flying sword lit up with silver light, brilliant and dazzling.

He was the original owner of this sword, and he had left a spiritual mark long ago. The old man in hemp clothes did not erase it when he refined the weapon. At this time, he just roughly refined it once, and it felt like using his arm.

The old man in hemp clothes also left a thought in the flying sword to introduce the characteristics of this sword.

This top-grade flying sword made of silver Gang stone has no other power, but it is extremely sharp. It can be broken with one cut below the top-grade spiritual weapon. Only the top-grade spiritual weapon can block a few swords.

Chen Yuan was delighted. After all, Silver Gang Stone was one of the top-grade medium-quality spiritual materials used to refine flying swords. The piece of Silver Gang Stone he bought was of sufficient weight. The old man in hemp clothes added all of it into this sword and refined it carefully. It could be considered top-notch among the top-grade spiritual weapons.

Nie Ruyue smiled and said, "My third uncle has spent a lot of effort on this flying sword. Is Fellow Daoist Chen satisfied?"

Chen Yuan put the flying sword into the storage bag and praised, "The sharpness of this sword is beyond Chen's expectation. Master Nie is indeed a master."

Nie Ruyue sighed, "It's a pity that in the past three years, our pavilion has not purchased any Phantom Yin Stone. I have failed to live up to your trust."

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. I was lucky enough to get a piece of Phantom Yin Stone. I came here not only to get the sword, but also to ask Master Nie to help me again."

Nie Ruyue was stunned, then smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, please follow me. My third uncle is free and can help you refine the weapon."

Phantom Yin Stone is so precious. Her third uncle has been refining weapons all his life and has seen countless spiritual materials. He has only seen it once before.

In just three years, Chen Yuan got a piece of Phantom Yin Stone. He is really lucky.

Chen Yuan said, "Master Nie, wait a minute. I still have some spiritual weapons to sell. I wonder if Master Nie is interested?"

Nie Ruyue's eyes flickered, and her smile became more charming: "Please take them out for a look. As long as the quality is acceptable, I will eat them all."

Chen Yuan stroked the storage bag, and more than ten spiritual weapons appeared on the table out of thin air, with different styles, including low, medium and high quality.

He took out all the spiritual weapons he got from Zhuang Ji, Ning Bi and seven mid-stage foundation-building demon cultivators, leaving only the bone-penetrating nail.

Nie Ruyue's smile froze when she saw the spiritual weapons piled on the table like a small mountain. When she looked at Chen Yuan again, there was a little more awe in her eyes.

She then understood that Chen Yuan did not get the Huanyin Stone by luck, but by relying on his strong strength.

He took out so many spiritual weapons at once, and he must have at least seven or eight foundation-building cultivators' lives in his hands!

Nie Ruyue calmed down, picked up the spiritual tools on the table one by one, and bargained with Chen Yuan, finally settling on 380 medium-grade spiritual stones.

If these spiritual tools were sold separately, they should be able to sell for more than 400 spiritual stones, but Baoguang Pavilion had to resell them, so they needed to leave a profit margin, so they lowered the price a little.

Chen Yuan didn't want to waste time for 20 or 30 medium-grade spiritual stones, so he agreed directly and sold all these spiritual tools to Nie Ruyue.

The two agreed that after Chen Yuan had negotiated with the old man in hemp clothes, he would deduct the spiritual stones needed for refining the tools and give him the remaining spiritual stones.
