Chapter 256 Goodbye Nangong Xue
Chapter 256 Goodbye Nangong Xue
Last time, Li Yi and Jing Yuan had an in-depth discussion about his illness. Jing Yuan pointed out a way for Li Yi to coexist with his inner demons, and Li Yi also made Jing Yuan burst into tears. So what will the next story be like? Let's read on.
The next day, Tianzong Daoist leader Qianyuan arrived, and soon Dizong Daoist leader Shiling and Taoxuan, who were going to participate in the formal duel, also arrived at Taihe Palace. When the heavyweights arrived, Guangde had to accompany them personally.
This duel between the Heaven and Earth Sect was a grand event for the Dao Sect. The heads of the Heaven and Earth Sect and the representatives of the Human Sect not only held a ceremony, but also exchanged experiences and held debates. After a series of tedious communication procedures, the Heaven and Earth Sect sat down to talk about the duel.
Tao Xuan Zhenren asked directly: "Brother Qianyuan, why don't you see Brother Guiyun? Now that the disciples have finished fighting, it's time for us to spar."
Qian Yuan Zhenren replied calmly: "Junior brother is still treating the body of disciple Nangong Xue. This is all done by your good disciple Li Yi."
Li Yi had already had a hundred thousand questions in his mind before he saw Nangong Xue. Now the leader of Tianzong called his name again. He was about to take the opportunity to speak, but was suppressed by Yiling. How could an outer disciple like him have the right to speak in this situation! Even Shan Yiling, a direct disciple, had no right to interrupt.
The person who should answer at this time is Shi Ling Zhenren, who is Li Yi's master. He smiled and said, "Oh? I wonder what trouble this naughty disciple of mine has caused again?"
Master Guangde interrupted and said, "It seems that Senior Brother Shi Ling knows his disciples very well. They are really naughty. As soon as they arrived at my Taihe Palace, they started playing outside the door, and then they wanted to cause trouble with Junior Brother Jingyuan. I wanted to test them first."
Upon hearing this, Tao Xuan Zhenren immediately glared at Yi Ling, who put on an expression that said he knew he was wrong and would never do it again, and then lowered his head with a blushing face. However, Li Yi's face was as thick as a city wall. Facing Tao Xuan Zhenren's sharp eyes, he put on a gangster look, as if to say: I know I was wrong, but I won't change, and I will do it again next time!
However, when Shi Ling Zhenren looked at Li Yi, he immediately lowered his head. If he dared to show the same expression as before, Shi Ling Zhenren would definitely beat him up in front of everyone! And he would be merciless. In sharp contrast to him was Yi Ling, who was calm and composed. This was the saying that whoever taught him was the disciple. One thing conquers another.
Now it seems that the disciples of the Earth Sect have lost face, but the next words of Master Guangde almost killed Jingyuan Society. He said: "Senior Brother Qianyuan's disciple is not that strong. How can a grown man be so fond of crying? He even used the front of my robe to wipe his tears and snot, ruining his Taoist robe. This senior brother must compensate!"
With a loud bang, Jing Yuan was directly embedded into the wall by his own clothes! Qian Yuan Zhenren said calmly: "Don't worry, Junior Brother, we will compensate you for your Taoist robe and this wall."
Tao Xuan Zhenren brought the topic back to the competition. He asked, "What happened to Nangong Xue? Can she still participate in the disciple battle?"
Hearing this, Li Yi's ears immediately pricked up, fearing that he had missed something. But he heard Qian Yuan Zhenren calmly say: "In Langshan Jiuying Valley, the two of them were trapped by the resentment of Jiuying, and this boy instigated Nangong Xue to abandon the sword heart and fill the suppressed desire with the sword to break the space barrier."
Hearing this, Shi Ling Zhenren looked at Li Yi. Instead of blaming him, he looked at him with approval, because he was using the true meaning of the Seven Absolute Abilities.
This means that Li Yi used the Seven Swordsmanship to cover Nangong Xue's ruthless sword intent, which is the first step to cracking the Supreme Forgetfulness.
Zhenren Qianyuan continued, "Nangong Xue has been practicing the Merciless Sword since she was young. Now she has abandoned her sword heart and changed her sword intention. Not only has her inner demon gained the upper hand, but it has also directly destroyed her foundation. She is even in danger of losing her life!"
Li Yi's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.
"In order to save my disciple, Junior Brother Guiyun had no choice but to erase her memory and calm her inner demons. He then used the Supreme Forgetfulness Heart Method to abandon all worldly distractions and help her return to the right path."
Li Yi couldn't bear it any longer. He just stood up and was about to point his finger at the Tianzong leader and start scolding him. However, as soon as he stood up, he flew out and was directly embedded in the wall.
Shi Ling Zhenren said with a smile: "Don't worry, Junior Brother Guangde, we will also compensate."
Compared to these, Tao Xuan Zhenren was more concerned about tomorrow's competition. He asked, "Can she still compete tomorrow?"
"That depends on whether Nangong Xue can survive the catastrophe of immortality."
"What? Eternal Tribulation? Junior Brother Guiyun actually forced a child to go through the Eternal Tribulation? Nangong Xue's cultivation is not enough, and her swordsmanship is not stable. Letting her go through the tribulation by force, how is this different from sending her to her death?"
"If Li Yi hadn't acted like that, Junior Brother wouldn't have used this extraordinary method. Otherwise, Nangong Xue would have destroyed her own sword heart, and her life would have been shortened by at least thirty years! Junior Brother also wanted to save his disciple's life."
Li Yi, who was embedded in the wall, suddenly disappeared. Shi Ling Zhenren sent a message to Yi Ling, asking her to stop Li Yi. The latter nodded and saluted, then disappeared.
Yi Ling stopped Li Yi at the gate of Wudang Mountain and shouted, "What are you going to do?"
"Go to Tianzong to find Xue'er!"
"You're crazy! The competition is tomorrow. How can we have the competition if you leave?"
"Didn't you hear? Xue'er's life is in danger! All this is caused by me! How can I just sit there and do nothing!"
"It's true that those involved are the most confused! Master Qianyuan's words are clearly meant to confuse you and prevent you from fighting with your full strength! Nangong Xue will be fine!"
"A seventeen-year-old child is going to endure the tribulation of immortality. This is a joke! What is the point of seeking immortality at the age of seventeen? My master has said that this is tantamount to committing suicide!"
"Are you stupid? I'm only eighteen! After the competition, I'm also going to prepare for the tribulation! In Taoism, the fourth-grade longevity tribulation is nothing! The difficult ones are the true immortal tribulation and the golden immortal tribulation! Master Qianyuan is just provoking you!"
Li Yi was stunned, Yi Ling continued: "The longevity tribulation of the third-grade fusion stage is actually to break the life span limit and transform the mortal fetus into an immortal fetus through tribulation!
You have gone through the Purple Thunder Bone Tempering, and now you have the body of an immortal. The longevity calamity of the fusion period is not as difficult for you to resist as the Purple Thunder Bone Tempering. What are you worrying about!" Hearing this, Li Yi calmed down a little.
Yi Ling continued, "The leader of the Tianzong Sect is willing to use such means to confuse your mind. This is enough to prove how much importance the Tianzong Sect attaches to this competition. So don't worry, how could they give up a match!"
Li Yi nodded and regained his sanity. He said, "You are right. I was impulsive. But what is the purpose of the battle between the Tiandi Sect and the Di Sect? Why do the two sects take it so seriously?"
“On the surface, it seems to be a dispute over legal principles, that is, a dispute between eliminating demons and defending the Way and returning to Heaven and following His will. But in reality, it is meaningless. Regardless of winning or losing, the Taoist leader of the Tian Sect must return to Heaven and follow His will, and we must also eliminate the evil demons.
But from a realistic perspective, the battle between the two sects is actually to fight for the spiritual treasure of heaven and earth that appears every ten years on Kunlun Mountain!"
Li Yi was surprised and said, "Kunlun Mountain? Heaven and earth treasure? What the hell?"
"Every ten years, a magical treasure will appear in Kunlun Mountain. At the end of the month, the winner of the duel between the two sects can lead people into the mountain to search for the treasure. This kind of magical treasure is of great significance to those who practice Taoism. It can be used to refine magical instruments or to help with practice."
"I see. The two sects of Heaven and Earth both used extraordinary methods. What's so special about this year's spiritual treasure?"
"At the beginning of this year, strange phenomena occurred frequently in Kunlun Mountain. Combined with past experience, this year will definitely produce Hunyuan treasures, so the two sects attach so much importance to it."
"What does Hunyuan Treasure mean?"
"It is comparable to your Heaven-Measurement Ruler and Spirit Feather Arrow. It is a treasure that even our sect cannot refine."
"Oh? Are the Heaven-Measured Ruler and Spiritual Feather Arrow so powerful?"
"You already know this, don't you? These Heaven-Measurement Ruler and Spirit Feather Arrows are both divine weapons made by Empress Tai'an. Naturally, they are very powerful."
Li Yi was surprised and asked, "Huh? I know the Heaven-Measurement Ruler, but the Spirit Feather Arrow was also made by Empress Tai'an?"
Yi Ling said seriously: "You are the descendant of Hou Yi, and Hou Yi is the reincarnation of Dayi. This spiritual feather arrow belongs to Dayi. Dayi was able to achieve the first-class and unrivaled in the world with the guidance of Empress Tai'an.
It's just that you didn't find Dayi's Heaven-Shooting Sun Bow, and you couldn't bring out the true power of the Spirit Feather Arrow, so it's obvious that the Spirit Feather Arrow is not as good as the Heaven-Measurement Ruler."
"Oh, I see! Hey, do you think the spiritual treasure of Kunlun Mountain this year will be the Heaven-Shooting Sun Bow?"
"Who can be sure of such a thing? Why don't you ask the heavens?"
Li Yi waved his hand and said, "That's not necessary. How can I trouble Master Tiandao with such a small matter? Well, in that case, let's go back?"
Yi Ling shook his head and said, "Why go back? Since Master Qianyuan wants to disturb your mind, let him think he succeeded."
Li Yi laughed and said, "Look, you are stupid now! He is a first-grade golden immortal. How can we hide our little tricks from him? But it won't hurt to go back and piss him off."
"You are stupid! Master-uncle has cultivated the highest level of forgetfulness. How can you be angry with him? I'm afraid you can't even mess up his hair!"
"Look at what you said. How can we know if we don't try? What if I really blow his hair? Let's go back."
Returning to the forum, Li Yi and Yi Ling took their seats again. Shi Ling Zhenren nodded and smiled, and continued chatting with Qian Yuan Zhenren: "I'm afraid it's against the rules for Senior Brother to let Jing Yuan, who is in the Transcendent Realm, to compete in this competition."
"We didn't expect that after we decided on the candidate, Jing Yuan would actually successfully pass the tribulation and be promoted to Transcendent. This was an accident."
"You are all thousand-year-old foxes, why are you playing Liao Zhai with me?"
Taoist Master Tao Xuan shouted, "Who is talking?" Suddenly, a strange voice came from the venue. Everyone looked around but couldn't find the person who was talking.
But who else could say this except Li Yi? It's just that everyone didn't know how he managed to show off in front of all the great gods. This is the advantage of the three cultivations, integrating the three religions of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. They have never seen this new technique before.
Shi Ling Zhenren looked at Li Yi. After all, only this troublemaker liked to stir up trouble. Li Yi looked innocent and spread his hands and said, "Master, it's really not me. That's not my voice!"
Zhenren Qianyuan waved his hand and said, "It's okay, Junior Brother Shi Ling, let's continue." He then set up a barrier in the hall to cut off interference.
"You are fine. You are a first-class golden immortal, the leader of the Tianzong sect, and you are trying to provoke a junior like Li Yi with words! You even said that you didn't know Jing Yuan would survive the tribulation. You are kidding me! If you want to cheat, just say you are cheating! You have such a high level of cultivation and you are still cheating. Who can do anything to you? Who dares to do anything to you? You are kidding!"
Tao Xuan Zhenren slammed the table and shouted, "Who dares to be so presumptuous?"
Shi Ling Zhenren glared at Li Yi, who immediately replied, "Master, I swear to God, it wasn't me! Could it be that black dragon? This time when I went to Mobei, I found that the black dragon was actually a snake demon that relied on the power of the Huns' faith to transform into a dragon!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was amazed. A snake demon borrowed the power of human faith to cultivate, that was a big deal! Master Shi Ling looked at Master Qian Yuan and said, "Brother, I was going to discuss this with you after the competition. But since Li Yi brought it up, let's talk about it. Disciples, please leave. This matter is very important and you cannot participate in it." The disciples of the three sects of heaven, earth and man left, leaving only the big guys to discuss business...
The next day, today was the day for the disciples to compete, but Master Guiyun and Nangong Xue were still not here. Master Taoxuan asked, "Brother Qianyuan, could it be that Nangong Xue can't come?"
Qian Yuan Zhenren said calmly: "Why not let Jing Yuan and Li Yi compete first? After they finish fighting, I guess there will be an explanation."
Li Yi ignored Yi Ling's attempts to stop him and shouted, "No, how can I compete without Xue'er? Originally, Yi Ling and Xue'er were competing first. If Master-Uncle insists that we compete first, should Tian Zong be considered the loser in this match?"
