Chapter 143
“There are many more arrangements, but they will have to wait until you reach the Divine Attainment Realm,” Xi Yingqing said with a smile.
“I understand, Sect Master… Senior Brother.” Meng Changqing nodded, changing his address.
“Go and cultivate, reach the Divine Attainment Realm soon, so I can teach you more things,” Xi Yingqing said.
“Yes.” Meng Changqing turned around.
The surrounding spiritual domain also disappeared.
In sight was the wide gate. After Meng Changqing left, many figures appeared behind Xi Yingqing. They were the peak masters, except for the Grand Elder of the sect.
“I didn’t expect, at this age, to gain another junior brother,” Shangguan Zhi shook his head and said.
“Guess when this junior brother will surpass you?” the Formation Peak master said with a smile.
“I don’t know, but he will definitely surpass you first!” Shangguan Zhi glared at her.
Because his cultivation was a bit higher.
“Alright, the appearance of Junior Brother Meng gives us hope.” The elderly female master of Medicine King Peak coughed lightly.
“Is Second Senior Brother not here?” Mo Shukuang looked around.
The Second Senior Brother was the Grand Elder of the sect, named Lin Xuankong.
“You know his thoughts, he has always opposed our actions, only seeking peace.” Shangguan Zhi shook his head, then his eyes showed strong killing intent, “But if we can’t… what’s the point of living like this!”
Hearing this, everyone’s face showed the same expression, except for Xi Yingqing.
He looked somewhat desolate and sad.
“The blame for what happened back then lies with me.
“But the sky above must still change!”
As he spoke, Xi Yingqing’s eyes became extremely sharp.
—
Returning to Spirit Peak, Meng Changqing went directly into the cultivation hall and activated the formation.
Next, he chose his attribute!
Innate Sword Body!
An extremely rare and powerful constitution!
For those who practice swordsmanship, it was a dream come true.
Sitting cross-legged, Meng Changqing silently chanted in his heart.
“System, use the attribute selection card to obtain the Innate Sword Body!”
Ding!
【One selection card consumed, successfully obtained!】
“System, fuse the Innate Sword Body!”
Meng Changqing did not hesitate.
Ding!
【Fusion begins!】
As soon as the words fell, Meng Changqing felt a shock throughout his body.
Then a vast, icy sensation emerged from his heart, spreading throughout his body.
This icy sensation was different from before, filled with the sharpness unique to swordsmanship!
It continuously seeped into his muscles, skin, flesh, and even meridians!
In an instant, Meng Changqing felt as if he had truly become a sword, able to cleave the heavens and split the earth, incomparably sharp!
After half an hour, the fusion finally ended.
Hoo!
The moment Meng Changqing opened his eyes, the ground before him cracked continuously, covered with dense sword marks!
It was as if swept by countless sword qi.
If it weren’t for the formation’s defense, even the hall doors would have been directly cut apart!
“Innate Sword Body.” Meng Changqing took a deep breath, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
As expected of a rare constitution, it was indeed extraordinarily powerful!
As imagined, not only does it provide divine assistance in practicing swordsmanship and high comprehension, but it also greatly enhances the power of any sword technique!
How much specifically, Meng Changqing was unsure.
But it was certainly no less than the sword qi.
“If I activate both the Sword Body and Sword Intent at the same time, how terrifying would the power of a single sword be?”
Meng Changqing only imagined it and felt that the scene would be incredibly terrifying.
“Another day of significant strength improvement.” Meng Changqing exhaled lightly, and the pressure his aunt had brought also lessened significantly.
“Next, continue cultivating!” Meng Changqing did not slack off.
He took out the many pills given by the sect master.
With “Linglong Daluo Tian,” the comprehension barrier of the Dao Creation Realm was already gone, mainly a matter of resources.
Now that resources were sufficient, there would be no obstacles to cultivation.
Additionally, he had fused with a first-grade root bone before!
So Meng Changqing estimated that he could walk this path in a very short time.
“Begin!” Taking out a pill and swallowing it, Meng Changqing formally entered deep cultivation.
Time passed slowly.
In the blink of an eye, two months had gone by.
During these two months, the news of Tai Xuan Sect’s promotion to first grade naturally spread throughout Tianling Prefecture.
And it caused a huge sensation in the surround areas.
It meant that from now on, Tai Xuan Sect would completely dominate Tianling Prefecture, and the era of four powers balancing each other was over!
At the same time, Flame Sun Valley, Giant Spirit Sect, and Wind and Cloud City, the three forces, handed over half of their territory as required. And it was the more resource-rich parts.
As a result, Tai Xuan Sect entered a very rapid development phase…
Almost every day, there were disciples reaching the Sea Cleaving Realm. Of course, besides the subsequent resource supply, the role of the Xuanqing Realm also played a part.
Those disciples fully absorbed the gains from the secret realm and finally reached the point of breaking the cocoon.
In comparison, the other three forces became increasingly declining.
And in the future, the gap between them would only grow larger!
Boom!
Suddenly, the Dao bell rang!
Ripples swept around, indicating a major event.
In the sect master’s hall, Xi Yingqing stood before the throne.
Beside him were many peak masters.
The previously often absent Grand Elder was also present.
“The Wanxiang Pavilion has already prepared to withdraw the guardians of the Demon Abyss.
“From now on, it will be up to Tai Xuan Sect to guard it!”
Xi Yingqing said slowly.
Guarding the Demon Abyss was the duty of a first-grade sect. Previously, since there was no first-grade sect in Tianling Prefecture, it was done by the Holy Lands or the Wangxiang Pavilion.
“If I remember correctly, this Demon Abyss is the rare and dangerous Abyss of Heavenly Demons,” the Grand Elder thought for a moment and said.
In the cultivation world, Demon Abysses and Monster Lands represent foreign domains.
In ancient times, humans, although victorious over a hundred races and gaining control of the Central Province, the alien races were not exterminated, especially the demon and monster races.
They still retained considerable strength, often trying to return to the Central Province, finding weak points in space and opening rifts as their primary means.
Once a rift opened, reinforced by special power, it became hard to close. Over time, it formed a permanent passage. Called by the Holy Lands as Demon Abysses and Monster Lands.
The demons were of two kinds.
One was Heavenly Demons, the other Earthly Demons.
Heavenly Demons were the most dangerous.
Because they have no physical form, they were a mass of spirit, extremely powerful spiritual consciousness. They were able to easily invade the sea of consciousness of living beings. Possess, parasitize, and take everything!
Earthly Demons were the opposite.
Their bodies were inherently incredibly strong, far surpassing humans. Only the best among humans could contend with them!
For a first-grade sect or great sect, it’s best to guard an Earthly Demon Abyss or Monster Land.
Because even disciples not in the Divine Attainment Realm could participate.
But the Heavenly Demon Abyss was different. Without opening the spiritual secret treasure, it’s too dangerous.
“Though dangerous, it’s also a treasure trove.
“Heavenly Demons are highly accomplished in spirit. If they can be slain, the extracted Heavenly Demon Qi will be the best supplement for Divine Attainment Realm warriors.”
Mo Shukuang said.
