Nine Transformations of the True Spirit

Zhuge Qi looked serious and shook his head slightly: "On the road to immortality, those who are successful come first. Senior Brother Chen is the first to have a baby. I should treat him as a senior brother."

"As for the friendship between me and Junior Brother Jin, it has nothing to do with Senior Brother Chen."

Chen Yuan couldn't laugh or cry. He was Jin Luoheng's disciple. Zhuge Qi called Jin Luoheng his junior brother, but he called him his senior brother. How weird?

But this is the tradition in the world of cultivating immortals. The most important thing for cultivators is the inheritance of master and disciple, followed by the level of cultivation and the order of breakthroughs, rather than seniority.

If there is a conflict, then everyone will discuss it separately, which leads to the strange scene of Chen Yuan calling Jin Luoheng his master, Jin Luoheng calling Zhuge Qi his senior brother, and Zhuge Qi also calling Chen Yuan his senior brother.

Chen Yuan, a second-generation man, was extremely uncomfortable with this, but for everyone in the palace, this was the way they were accustomed to.

If you were called Master Uncle before breaking through the realm, and if you are still called Master Uncle after breaking through the realm, wouldn’t your cultivation be in vain?

Chen Yuan suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and returned the greeting with cupped fists: "Congratulations to Zhuge...Junior brother, you have formed a Nascent Soul, your cultivation has greatly improved, and you will live for a thousand years."

Zhuge Qi smiled and raised his hand: "Senior Brother Chen, please sit down."

After that, he sat on the Grand Master's chair on the right, while Jin Luoheng sat on the left, vacating the main seat.

Seeing this, Chen Yuan shook his head: "Master is here, why should I take the lead?"

Jin Luoheng said: "Don't refuse. Although I have given birth to a baby, my master's cultivation is far inferior to yours. In this Lingyun Palace, only business matters are discussed, regardless of personal matters. You should be the one taking the seat."

Zhuge Qi agreed: "What Junior Brother Jin said is absolutely true. Senior Brother Chen led our sect to destroy Ziyang, overwhelm Tiangang, and subdue Yuan Mingyin. His reputation spread throughout Donghua, and everyone in the sect respected him. He should be the leader." ”

He glanced down, and all the Danjie elders understood and bowed down with clasped fists, saying in unison: "I respectfully invite the Supreme Elder to take your seat!"

Chen Yuan looked around, everyone's faces were full of admiration, their expressions were sincere and there was no pretense.

In the past two and a half years, as the Nascent Soul cultivators from various sects returned to their sects, the incident in the Demon Realm gradually spread.

Only then did the monks in Donghua Continent realize that the constant disasters and depletion of spiritual veins in various countries were not natural disasters, but man-made disasters.

The battle in the deepest part of the Demon Realm shocked Donghua even more.

Seven great monks came out together, dozens of Nascent Soul monks entered the battle, Gu Zuo and Mu Zhaoming betrayed the sect, and the Demon Lord devoured the Nascent Soul, none of them could compare to Chen Yuan's ability to defeat the Demon Lord.

A monk in the early stage of Nascent Soul actually mastered the art of teleportation, and his physical strength was comparable to that of the Demon King in Transformation.

Those Yuanying monks who were rescued by Chen Yuan were very grateful to him and took the initiative to make him famous.

Among them, Tang Jiu Gongzi is the most serious. He is naturally unrestrained and unruly. He often hangs out with the Danjie monks. Many details of the Demon Realm War are revealed from his mouth.

He praised Chen Yuan for "turning the tide before it fell, and supporting the building before it collapsed." His strength was comparable to that of a great monk.

People were doubtful, but no one refuted those Nascent Soul monks who entered the Demon Realm, but they couldn't help but believe it.

As for the collapse of the Ziyang Sect, it is not worth mentioning.

A sect without a Nascent Soul cultivator would disappear into thin air.

…

Facing everyone's respectful invitation, Chen Yuan did not agree immediately. He turned over his hand and took out the seal of the master: "Since everyone in the sect respects me, I will make an independent decision and ask Master to take over the position of master and occupy the main position. superior."

With that said, he presented the cloud-patterned jade pendant to Jin Luoheng, and the palace fell into silence.

Everyone was surprised, but no one said anything. They just looked back and forth between Chen Yuan and Jin Luoheng.

When it comes to Yuanying monks, these Danjie elders dare not comment.

Zhuge Qi looked hesitant and looked at Jin Luoheng without saying a word.

Jin Luoheng shook his head slightly: "As my teacher, I have already said that today we will only talk about public affairs and not private matters. Furthermore, no matter how virtuous or capable I am as a teacher, you should be the one to hold the position of head."

Chen Yuan smiled and said: "Master understands what he wants, but I often practice hard in seclusion and have no time to deal with the affairs of the sect, so why should I occupy the position of the head of the sect for nothing?"

"Since Master has been in charge of the Law Enforcement Pavilion, he has been fair in dealing with matters and has clear rewards and punishments. He is in charge of the sect and must be respected by everyone from top to bottom... Junior Brother Zhuge, what do you think?"

Zhuge Qi said slowly: "I agree with Junior Brother Jin taking the position of leader."

Chen Yuan looked at everyone again: "Do you elders have any objections?"

"Uncle Jin is respectfully invited to assume the position of leader!" Everyone saluted quickly.

Chen Yuan and Zhuge Qi both agreed with this matter, how dare they disobey?

Jin Luoheng had a free and easy temper. Seeing that Chen Yuan had made up his mind, he no longer refused and smiled slightly: "In that case, I will accept the seal of the master."

After saying that, he raised his hand to take the cloud pattern jade pendant and refined it instantly.

Zhuge Qi looked solemn, cupped his fists and bowed down: "I have seen the master!"

Everyone followed and saluted: "Greetings to the master!"

With a smile on his lips, Jin Luoheng stood up, sat on the main seat, and said calmly: "You don't have to be polite. Since I am the leader, when there is a succession ceremony, it will be held together with the Nascent Soul Ceremony to avoid wasting energy. stone……"

Chen Yuan sat down on his left side with a smile on his lips and said nothing.

Seven days later, the Lingyun Sect held a Nascent Soul Ceremony to celebrate the formation of the Nascent Soul between Jin Luoheng and Zhuge Qi, as well as to celebrate Jin Luoheng's taking over as head of the clan and Sun Congyao's return to the sect.

Master Shen, Bai Yanji, and Wan Shihun personally came to congratulate him, and each presented two thousand-year-old spiritual grass as a congratulatory gift.

The heads of all the immortal cultivating families in Qi State were all present to congratulate him, and each presented two pieces of high-grade spiritual materials as congratulatory gifts.

A Yuanying elder from each of the four Xuanzong sects came to congratulate him, and each presented two thousand-year-old spiritual grass as a congratulatory gift. They were extremely humble.

The casual cultivator Tang Jiugongzi came to congratulate, presented a jar of spiritual wine as a gift, and talked happily with Chen Yuan.

Jin Luoheng and Zhuge Qi each preached for a day, and according to the old practice of Chen Yuan's infant-forming ceremony, the disciples of Lingyun Sect gathered at the top of Lingyun Peak.

After the ceremony, Jin Luoheng and Zhuge Qi handed over all the thousand-year-old spiritual herbs they received to Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan wanted to give the Baiyun Peak cave to Jin Luoheng, but was rejected by Jin Luoheng.

He still lived on Jiangzhen Peak, and Zhuge Qi would go to Ziyang Mountain Range to take charge.

Before Zhuge Qi left the sect, he met with Chen Yuan and Jin Luoheng for three days. It was unknown what they discussed. He led a hundred foundation-building disciples and five hundred Qi-refining disciples to the Ziyang Mountain Range in a mighty manner.

Wu Zexian took over the position of the head of the Law Enforcement Pavilion, and Sun Congyao was given elixirs by Jin Luoheng and hurriedly left the sect.

Chen Yuan entered the Earth Fire Hall for retreat. Three months later, he walked out of the Earth Fire Hall and came to Jiangzhen Peak.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Jin Luoheng was meditating in the cave, and was a little surprised to see Chen Yuan coming to visit: "What do you want to see me for?"

Chen Yuan took out two jade bottles and presented them to Jin Luoheng: "In the past three months, I have used the fourteen thousand-year-old spiritual herbs to refine eighteen Yuanying pills, and I have come to give them to my master."

Jin Luoheng was stunned, and then smiled: "Those spiritual herbs are given to you by my master and Senior Brother Zhuge, you can refine them by yourself."

Chen Yuan shook his head slightly: "These fourteen thousand-year-old spiritual herbs are gifts from fellow sects to congratulate my master and Junior Brother Zhuge on their formation of the infant, and I can't keep them."

Jin Luoheng said lightly: "It is a blessing for my master and Senior Brother Zhuge to form the infant, Whether you can reach a higher level in the future is still uncertain. "

"You have a solid foundation and unlimited potential. Instead of fighting for that chance, it is better to leave all the pills to you."

"If you can break through the bottleneck of the middle stage and even become a great cultivator, it is not a problem for our sect to unify the Qi Kingdom's cultivation world."

Chen Yuan frowned: "Master, I appreciate your kindness, but if I leave all the pills, wouldn't it be the power of the whole sect to serve one person..."

"I have discussed this matter with Senior Brother Zhuge," Jin Luoheng interrupted him, "He also agrees very much, you don't have to refuse again."

Chen Yuan finally stopped talking, clasped his fists, put away the jade bottle, and turned to leave.

He returned to the cave, opened the formation, came to the practice room, sat cross-legged, took out a pill, and swallowed it into his stomach.

The pill turned into a huge and pure spiritual energy, pouring into the meridians. Chen Yuan closed his eyes and silently circulated the spiritual energy according to the method recorded in "Nine Transformations of the True Spirit". His breath rose and fell like the tide.

…

Time flies, day and night, seven years passed like a white horse.

Since the end of the Nascent Soul Ceremony, Lingyun Sect has become famous. With three Nascent Soul cultivators in charge, it is truly the first sect in Qi.

Seven years ago, Lingyun Sect held a large-scale Ascension Conference, recruiting hundreds of Qi Refining casual cultivators and embracing all.

With two medium-sized spiritual veins, Lingyun Sect disciples do not need to worry about spiritual energy, but lack manpower to guard the mountain gate market and spiritual stone veins.

Thousands of Ziyang Sect Qi Refining disciples joined Lingyun Sect after mining spiritual ores in the spiritual stone veins for several years.

These low-level disciples did not hate Lingyun Sect deeply, nor did they have much loyalty to Ziyang Sect. They only wanted to practice.

But those foundation-building disciples had spent dozens or hundreds of years in Ziyang Sect, and their masters had all died in the hands of Lingyun Sect, which made it hard to feel at ease.

Most of them were executed, and only more than 30 foundation-building disciples joined Lingyun Sect under Dai Qing's guarantee.

The inheritance of Ziyang Sect also opened the eyes of Lingyun Sect disciples.

After all, it is a sect with a history of tens of thousands of years, with a profound foundation. Whether it is cultivation techniques, magical secrets, or the hundred arts of cultivation, it is better than Lingyun Sect's own inheritance.

The cultivation resources obtained from Ziyang Sect and the continued expansion of the share of Yuyang Mountain's mineral veins made Lingyun Sect rich overnight.

The alchemists, weapon refiners, talisman makers, and array masters, which were originally in oversupply, suddenly became scarce.

Under the order of the new head Jin Luoheng, the major halls of Lingyun Sect selected disciples with divine consciousness talents from the new disciples and cultivated them carefully.

But distant water cannot quench immediate thirst, so from the Qi-refining disciples and foundation-building disciples who practiced the hundred arts of cultivation in Ziyang Sect, excellent and sincerely repentant people were selected, and dozens of casual cultivators who were proficient in the hundred arts of cultivation were recruited to fill the vacancies.

In the past seven years, Lingyun Sect has been in great glory, and every move will cause a shock in the Qi Kingdom's cultivation world.

And one month before the opening of the Dongxu Mountain Secret Realm, Jin Luoheng suddenly invited the heads of the other three sects to discuss the matter.

The three major sects did not dare to neglect it. Wan Shihun and Bai Yanji came forward in person. Although the head of the sect, Shen, did not participate, he also sent a handsome Taoist with the cultivation level of the late Jindan period.

The cultivators of the four sects gathered at Lingyun Peak. Jin Luoheng sat on the main seat and smiled and said, "The Dongxu Mountain Secret Realm is related to the foundation of the four sects. Today, Jin invited three Taoist friends to come to discuss how to send disciples to enter the secret realm and pick spiritual herbs."
