Nine Transformations of the True Spirit

Tian You Yuanying was wrapped in white flames, his face was full of pain, he was sluggish and about to collapse.

With a thought in Chen Yuan's mind, the broad black wings on his back folded and disappeared, he withdrew the Zhu Yan True Fire, the dark light covering his arms disappeared, and the pain on Yuanying's face subsided slightly.

Huang Niu let out an anxious cry and raised his head to stare at Nascent Soul, which was held in Chen Yuan's hand, but he did not dare to make any move.

Thousands of feet away, the green light on the four-winged flying snake had long since disappeared. It flapped its fleshy wings and flew this way.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, I have something to say. No matter what you want, I will give it to you. I just ask you to show your noble hand and spare my life..." Tian You Yuanying looked at Chen Yuan with a face full of horror, and his voice was extremely weak.

But he was extremely anxious in his heart. The white flames had exhausted all the power of his soul. At this moment, he couldn't even disintegrate the soul on his own, let alone use two eighth-level spiritual beasts to deal with Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan said calmly: "Fellow Daoist Tian, ​​please stop joking. The matter is now at this point. How can I let you go again?"

As he spoke, he raised his hand and took the mustard ring on Tian You's wrist and the brocade pouch at his waist. Zhu Yan's true fire rose up and poured into it.

Tian You felt that the mark of his spiritual consciousness had been erased, and his heart sank, but he said with a smile on his face: "It's easy for Daoist Chen to kill me, but I left my life lantern in the door. As long as I die, the door will be destroyed." You will know immediately.”

"Fellow Taoist and I were competing for the opportunity to refine magic weapons in Wanlingfang City yesterday, and we died in Jingzhou the next day. Fellow Taoist will never escape."

"As far as I know, fellow Taoists are just casual cultivators, and the two high-level magic weapons have not yet started to be refined."

"Just to vent your anger by killing me, fellow Taoists have to give up those spiritual materials and offend our sect. It's really not worth the gain!"

Chen Yuan put away the mustard seed ring and the brocade bag, with a sarcastic look on his pale face, and nodded slightly: "Fellow Daoist Tian is right, Chen does not want to give up the spiritual materials, nor does he want to offend the Jiuli Sect."

"This allowed fellow Taoist to escape for half an hour. I would rather lose my true essence than capture your Nascent Soul, just to prevent the Jiuli Sect from knowing about your death."

He is cautious by nature, how could he risk offending the behemoth of the Jiuli Sect just for a quick gain and a few top-quality spiritual stones?

When Chen Yuan got the chance to refine the magic weapon, he had murderous intentions and would never let Tian You return to the Jiuli Sect alive.

Although this matter started because of Tian You, he failed to succeed in the end, so he must have already held a grudge against him.

Who knows that he is just a casual cultivator, while Tian You is the elder of the ten major sects.

The grass is cut without eradicating the root, but the spring wind blows and grows again. Tian You doesn't seem to be a generous person. Chen Yuan doesn't know what means he will use to deal with him, so he simply strikes first.

But he had just had a conflict with Tian You, and Tian You died unexpectedly, and the Jiuli faction would definitely come looking for him.

No matter how powerful Chen Yuan is, he is only an early Yuanying monk and is no match for the ten major sects.

Moreover, he still has to refine magic weapons and cannot leave Wanlingfang City.

So he planned to use Zhu Yan's true fire to consume Tian You's soul power in the same way as Kun Tong, and then capture his Nascent Soul.

As long as the Nascent Soul still exists, Tian You will still be alive, and his natal lantern left in the Jiuli Sect will not be extinguished.

However, the Jiuli Sect monks are good at controlling beasts, and if you want to control spiritual beasts, you must have a powerful soul to control many spiritual beasts, monsters, birds, strange insects, and ferocious beasts.

Chen Yuan knew that Tian You's soul was stronger than Kun Tong, but he did not expect that his soul would be so strong and the power of his soul would be so pure and abundant.

In order to prevent Tian You from falling into despair and destroying his soul on his own, Chen Yuan only used the teleportation technique once, entering within ten feet of Tian You, and sent Zhu Yan's true fire into his soul space. From then on, he just forced Tian You ran for his life.

But under the burning of Zhu Yan's true fire, Tian You persisted for nearly half an hour before the power of his soul finally dried up, and Chen Yuan's true energy was also greatly consumed.

Although his true energy is extremely pure and pure, after all, he has just given birth to a baby and is only equivalent to a monk who has reached the peak of the early stage of Nascent Soul.

However, stimulating the blood of two true spirits at the same time and continuously infusing true essence to support Zhu Yan's true fire still consumed 80% of the true essence.

However, if other Yuanying monks were to know that a casual cultivator who had just become a baby had only consumed 80% of his true energy to capture the elders of the ten major sects alive, it would be no less than killing a mid-level Yuanying monk by overstepping his rank.

Even if the great monk takes action, it will be difficult to prevent Tian You from destroying his soul on his own.

Chen Yuan was able to do this entirely by relying on Zhu Yan's true fire.

But it is a pity that Zhu Yan's true blood was obtained from a fourth-level white ape after all, and its power is still weak against Yuanying monks.

If Zhu Yan's true blood in Chen Yuan's body was as pure as Kunpeng's true blood, Tian You could be captured alive in less than a quarter of an hour.

…

After Chen Yuan finished speaking, Tian You's heart sank again, but Yuanying's face was filled with joy: "Thank you, fellow Taoist, for not killing me!"

Chen Yuan said calmly: "Fellow Taoist Tian, ​​you are too polite. Mr. Chen is just for the spirit stone treasure in your hand. Please condescend to me for a hundred years. After a hundred years, I will send you to reincarnation and walk on the path of immortality in the next life."

As he spoke, he raised his hand to make a seal, muttered something in his mouth, and pointed at Tian You Yuanying with his right hand.

True essence surged out from Chen Yuan's fingertips and turned into a large net, tightly binding Nascent Soul, shining with a faint green light.

Then he took out a jade bottle from the mustard ring, opened the cork, and was about to put Tian You's spirit into it.

Tian You's expression changed and he said loudly: "Fellow Taoist, wait a moment, listen to me!"

Chen Yuan's eyes flashed, and his hand stopped: "Do you have any other advice, Fellow Daoist Tian?"

At this time, the four-winged flying snake flew back and stopped in front of Tian You's Yuanying, constantly spitting out snake tongues, making hissing sounds, and the snake's eyes were full of anxiety.

Tian You said: "The four-winged flying snake in my hand has an extremely hard body, extremely fast escape speed, and contains a strong poison."

"And this moss-backed cow, it flies and escapes quickly, and has a strong defensive ability."

"Although these two spirit beasts are not your opponents, they are more than enough to deal with ordinary Yuanying cultivators. I am willing to give them to you!"

"Oh?" Chen Yuan frowned, "I wonder what Fellow Daoist Tian wants?"

Tian You smiled with a smile on his face: "I don't want anything, I just want to serve you."

"These two level eight spirit beasts were carefully cultivated by me for hundreds of years. The demon soul blood ban has been planted several times, and it has long been impossible to lift it."

"But as long as you help me After the Yuanying recovers, these two level eight spirit beasts can be used by Daoyou. "

"In addition to these two spirit beasts, there are several spirit beasts in my spirit beast bag, with different functions, but I have also planted the demon soul blood ban on them..."

"Daoyou Tian's kindness, Chen appreciates it." Chen Yuan's voice turned cold, "but I don't trust Daoyou. No matter how good the spirit beast is, it can't be directly controlled in the hands. There will be a day of backlash."

Tian You said anxiously: "Daoyou can plant the soul blood ban in my Yuanying, I will never betray Daoyou..."

Before he finished speaking, Chen Yuan put his Yuanying into the jade bottle, covered it with a stopper, and pasted a spirit sealing talisman.

Tian You's Yuanying was sealed, and the four-winged flying snake's eyes became manic, emitting a sharp hiss, and the flesh wings flashed, and pounced on Chen Yuan.

The yellow cow also cried out, shook its body, shook Chen Yuan off, and buried its head to hit Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan's eyes became sharp, and he put the jade bottle into the mustard ring. The black wings behind him spread out, and he teleported in front of the yellow cattle, and punched several times in succession, beating the yellow cattle to death.

The four-winged flying snake had a hard body and a very fast escape speed, but it was not as fast as Chen Yuan who had mastered the teleportation technique.

He saw the right opportunity, grabbed the head and tail of the four-winged flying snake with both hands, and pulled it violently. The boundless force surged out and directly tore the four-winged flying snake into two pieces!

Chen Yuan took out two eighth-level demon pills and put the bodies of the four-winged flying snake and the yellow cattle into the mustard ring.

Then he flicked his fingers, and a firebird flew out, burning Tian You's body to ashes, leaving no trace.

After doing all this, Chen Yuan flew back in the direction he came from.

Tian You's surrender seemed very sincere, and he was even willing to let him plant the soul blood ban, but he would not consider it at all.

Jiuli sect monks are proficient in the art of taming beasts and know the soul blood ban best.

Chen Yuan didn't know whether Tian You had cracked the blood ban of the soul, but he was cautious by nature and would never raise a tiger to harm him.

He flew for more than 1,500 miles, slowed down his speed, and scanned the ground below with his consciousness. Suddenly, he sent down a light and landed in a mountain range.

On the top of a low mountain of several dozen feet, the tattered body of the sitting mountain tiger lay.

Chen Yuan flicked his finger, and a firebird flew out, burning the body of the sitting mountain tiger to ashes. The flowers, plants and yellow soil on the top of the mountain that were dyed red also disappeared without a trace.

After clearing all traces, Chen Yuan nodded with satisfaction, and the light of escape rolled up, soaring into the sky and flying towards the Wanling Mountains.

Chen Yuan's speed of escape was faster than Tian You's. When the sun rose, he quietly returned to the cave on the Wanling Peak.

He did not rush to recover his true essence, but took out Tian You's spirit beast bag and mustard ring and checked them.

There were two level 7 monsters and one level 6 monster in the spirit beast bag, but they were all planted with the soul blood ban by Tian You and could not be driven. Chen Yuan killed them all and took the monster pills and materials.

Tian You is worthy of being the elder of the ten major sects, and his wealth is richer than Kun Tong.

First, there were eight top-grade spirit stones and more than 1,400 high-grade spirit stones, which completely made up for Chen Yuan’s loss in spirit stones.

There was also one top-grade spirit material and three high-grade spirit materials, all of which were wood-attributed spirit materials, which were compatible with Tian You’s skills and should be prepared by him to refine magic weapons.

What made Chen Yuan most satisfied were five Yuanying early stage pills and six thousand-year-old spirit herbs.

Among these five pills, three were cultivation pills, and the other two were Yunlu Pills for healing and Huiling Pills that could restore 50% of the true essence within ten breaths.

These two kinds of elixirs are more precious than the elixirs for cultivation. Among them, the Huiling Pill is made by refining several drops of hundred-year-old spiritual milk as the main medicine, which was carefully collected by Chen Yuan.

Tian You was also unlucky. He met Chen Yuan who could control the Zhuyan True Fire.

He had sufficient true essence and a good body, but his soul was burned. Yunlu Pill and Huiling Pill were not useful.

Among the six thousand-year-old spiritual herbs, there was a body-tempering spiritual herb, which should be prepared by Tian You for the spirit beast.

There was another spiritual herb, which was the main medicine for refining the middle-stage Yuanying elixir.

The remaining four thousand-year-old spiritual herbs were divided into two types, which happened to match the thousand-year-old spiritual herbs in Chen Yuan's hand, and could be put together into a furnace of elixirs.

In addition, there were some sundries, which were collected by Chen Yuan.

Finally, he stimulated Kunpeng's true blood, and a dark light appeared on his hand. He destroyed Tian You's mustard ring and spirit beast bag, and then meditated to restore his true essence.

...

The spiritual energy on Wanling Peak was rich. It took three days for Chen Yuan to recover his true essence.

Exactly one month had passed since the last time he drew starlight into his body. He came out of the cave, took out the jade beads, and drew the power of the stars in the sky to temper his body.

Fifty breaths later, the starlight faded away. Chen Yuan clenched his fists and felt his strength become a little stronger. He nodded with satisfaction and returned to the cave to continue meditating and restore his true energy.

More than ten days later, Chen Yuan, who was trying to figure out the Nascent Soul Stage elixir recipe in the training room, was awakened by Qin Lian's voice.

He stood up and walked out of the cave, welcoming Qin Lian in.

The two of them sat down separately. Chen Yuan took out the teapot and cup, condensed the water, filled it with spiritual tea, and handed it to Qin Lian.

Qin Lian picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and said, "Fellow Daoist Chen, Qin's magic weapon has been restored and the furnace can be opened to refine it."

Chen Yuan smiled and said: "Without further delay, I will return to the mountain gate with my fellow Taoist."

Qin Lian nodded, took out a jade slip from the mustard seed ring, raised his hand and sent it away, and the jade slip slowly flew towards Chen Yuan.

He said: "Before refining the magic weapon, please accept this jade slip, which contains the repair method of the ancient teleportation array."

Chen Yuan took the jade slip and penetrated it with his spiritual consciousness. It took half an hour before he took back his spiritual consciousness.

The methods recorded in the jade slips are quite mysterious and extremely complicated and lengthy.

He took out five hundred pieces of high-grade spirit stones and handed them to Qin Lian. He smiled apologetically and said, "I didn't expect that this repair method would be so mysterious. I was so absorbed in it that I unknowingly looked at it again, making my fellow Taoist wait for a long time."

Qin Lian took the spirit stone and said in surprise: "In order to let fellow Taoists who are not familiar with the art of refining weapons understand the method of repairing the teleportation array, our ancestors specially expanded the original very brief method into extremely detailed ones."

"It would take at least a day for a monk in the early stage of Nascent Soul to understand it."

"Fellow Taoist understood it in just one hour, and his spiritual knowledge is extraordinary. It seems that the time for refining the magic weapon this time can be shortened by at least one year."

Chen Yuan smiled, put away the jade slip, and recalled the corner of the teleportation array that he destroyed, and said: "Among the spiritual materials to repair the teleportation array, I need tungsten iron powder, Ulshan jade, Chaotong wood..."

He named seven kinds of materials in succession, and finally asked: "Can your Majesty produce these materials?"

Qin Lian said: "Among these seven materials, three are relatively rare, but they are all preserved in this pavilion. It seems that the damage to the ancient teleportation array discovered by fellow Taoist is not great."

"Qin will go to Wanling Pavilion now and get these seven materials."

Chen Yuan felt relieved and stood up: "I'll go with fellow Taoist Qin."

The two left the cave and came to Wanling Pavilion. Elder Feng fetched seven kinds of materials under Qin Lian's instructions.

Chen Yuan checked it carefully and made sure there was no problem. He took out one thousand two hundred high-grade spiritual stones and handed them to Elder Feng.

The amount of materials he needs is not large, but there are many types, and three of them were relatively common in ancient times, but now they are relatively rare and valuable.

After the transaction was completed, Chen Yuan felt a big stone fall in his heart. Under the leadership of Qin Lian, they entered the mountain gate of Wanling Sect and came to the hot valley full of red earth.

The two of them dropped the light, walked into Qin Lian's cave, came to a spacious stone room, and sat cross-legged.

This stone chamber is about ten feet in size. The four walls are not made of ice formed by thousands of years of ice marrow. In the center is a formation about ten feet in size, with thirty-six formation flags placed around it.

At the center of the formation, there is a dark deep well about the size of a foot. Looking down, it is about a hundred feet deep.

The place where he entered his eyes was red and steaming with fire, but for Chen Yuan, it was still bearable.

Qin Lian sat opposite the formation, his robes shimmering slightly, and he was calm in the scorching heat.

He looked solemn and said: "Fellow Daoist Chen, Qin is going to start refining treasures."

Chen Yuan nodded and his expression became serious.

Qin Lian pointed at the same time, and the small red cauldron flew out and turned into a size of about ten feet, just enough to completely cover the formation.

Then he raised his hand to seal the secret, the formation flags all lit up, and the six red dragons on Ding's body rose into the sky.

Suddenly, a burst of red light emitted from the deep well, and a red flame rose up, flew out of the deep well, divided into six paths, and merged into the red dragon's shadow.

Six fire dragons looked up to the sky and roared, hovering around the red tripod, and the temperature in the stone chamber rose sharply. (End of chapter)
