Nine Transformations of the True Spirit

In the Mingliu Lake, on the island in the middle of the lake, Chen Yuan and Qingliu were sitting in a thatched cottage, with two cups of spiritual tea in front of them, the fragrance was lingering.

Qingliu looked a little ugly, and said in a deep voice: "I have known for a long time that the head of the sect will not sit idly by and watch Junior Brother Gu suffer."

"But he actually just asked Junior Brother Gu to compensate for the treasures of fellow Taoists, instead of asking him to guard the Hell of Fire. His partiality is too obvious."

"The next time Jueling Island opens, Junior Brother Gu will definitely not miss it. It will not be so easy for us to find Qingfeng Bamboo again."

Chen Yuan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said lightly: "Don't worry, fellow Taoist, it's nothing more than fighting against the enemy and covering the water with earth."

"Elder Gu has never been to Jueling Island, and he doesn't know the internal In this situation, as long as we pick the Qingfeng Bamboo before him, he will be helpless. ”

Qingliu Jushi sighed lightly: "It can only be done this way. Fortunately, he took out a ball of flowing light fire and elixir spirit grass."

"That forbidden sky formation also requires him to make compensation to the sect. In the past few decades, he can't think of improving his strength again."

Chen Yuan put down the teacup, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Forcing Yan Tongchun to death can also be regarded as a breath of anger in Chen's heart. The grudge with Elder Gu will not be too late later."

This time he testified against Elder Gu, and he didn't think that he could put Elder Gu to death.

Master Yue will definitely not sit idly by and watch a mid-stage Yuanying cultivator die because of the testimony of a casual cultivator.

The plan of Chen Yuan and Qingliu Jushi is just to let Elder Gu guard in the Fire Prison for another 20 years to avoid the next opening of the Absolute Spirit Island.

When the two were planning on Mount Moyun, Elder Qingliu told Chen Yuan that the Fire Prison was a dangerous place left over from ancient times, filled with fierce fire poison, which even the cultivators in the early stage of the Nascent Soul could not bear.

But the ancestor ordered that Haoran Sect could only send the elders in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul to suppress the Fire Prison until today.

However, it was called suppression, but in fact it was just monitoring. If there was any abnormality in the Fire Prison, it must be reported to the sect immediately.

A cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul could only last for thirty years in the Fire Prison. If it lasted longer, he would be corroded by the fire poison, his cultivation would be greatly damaged, and even his life would be in danger.

But for tens of thousands of years, the Fire Prison has been as stable as before. Apart from the fierce fire poison, there are no other abnormalities and no other treasures.

However, it is difficult to violate the ancestral precepts. To this day, Haoran Sect still has to send the elders in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul to monitor the Fire Prison, and they are replaced every thirty years.

The Fire Prison is not a secret. The elders of Haoran Sect all know about it, and many cultivators from other sects have also heard of it.

In two years, it will be Elder Gu's turn to guard the Fire Prison.

Chen Yuan suddenly attacked today because he wanted him to extend his guarding time at the Fire Prison by twenty years to avoid the next opening of the Absolute Spirit Island.

According to Qingliu, the three thousand year old Qingfeng Bamboo is extremely important to the incident that made him and Elder Gu turn against each other. For so many years, both of them have been looking for this thing.

The last time Absolute Spirit Island was opened, Qingliu got the news about Qingfeng Bamboo and quietly sneaked into Yuqing Sea and entered Absolute Spirit Island, but Elder Gu didn't know about it.

But Qingliu's whereabouts were exposed to the monks of Yuqing Sea, and Elder Gu would definitely hear the news.

The next time Absolute Spirit Island is opened, he will never let Qingliu enter Absolute Spirit Island to look for Qingfeng Bamboo.

Therefore, Qingliu wanted to take this opportunity to extend Elder Gu's guarding time at the Fire Prison by twenty years so that he could not snatch Qingfeng Bamboo from them.

But Sect Leader Yue was so partial to Elder Gu that they were caught off guard.

Chen Yuan could only settle for the next best thing and ask for some treasures as compensation, which would also weaken Elder Gu's strength.

In order to prevent Chen Yuan from helping Qingliu to obtain the 3,000-year-old Qingfeng Bamboo, Elder Gu first obstructed him from forming a baby, and then joined forces with Kun Tong to kill him. The two had already formed a deadly feud.

Qingliu Layman sighed: "Daoyou Chen, although the contradiction between me and Junior Brother Gu is very deep, we are from the same sect after all, and I can't kill him. If I really have to fight him, I will have to rely on you."

Chen Yuan nodded slightly: "Leave it to me."

At this time, a clear voice came into the thatched cottage: "Is Elder Qingliu here? Yao is here to visit."

Qingliu Layman looked surprised: "It's Elder Yao, Daoyou Chen, wait a moment, I'll go to greet him."

"Daoyou, go by yourself." Chen Yuan nodded, picked up the teacup, and sipped it gently.

After a while, Qingliu Layman and Yao Songtao walked into the thatched cottage.

Chen Yuan stood up and bowed: "Daoyou Yao, I am honored."

Yao Songtao returned the greeting: "Daoyou Chen."

"Please take a seat, both of you." Qingliu Lay Buddhist gestured.

The three sat down as host and guest. Qingliu Lay Buddhist poured Yao Songtao some spiritual tea and said with a smile: "Elder Yao, what advice do you have for me?"

Yao Songtao picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then put it down and looked at Chen Yuan: "Yao came here today to apologize to Daoyou Chen."

When Qingliu Lay Buddhist heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but Chen Yuan was not surprised.

Before, in the hall, Yao Songtao secretly sent him a message, expressing his intention to reconcile. Now it is reasonable for him to come and apologize in person.

Yao Songtao said: "At the meeting six years ago, I agreed to let Fellow Daoist Chen go to Hanzhou to deal with the Cold Jade Lion. I owed Elder Gu a favor and had to repay it."

"Elder Qingliu should know that the next person to guard the Fire Prison will be Yao's turn."

"And Elder Gu was willing to go on my behalf, on the condition that I would support his proposal during the meeting. I agreed to it, but it was not my intention. I hope Fellow Daoist Chen will forgive me."

Chen Yuan smiled and said: "Elder Yao is serious, Chen is not seriously injured, and this is not Elder Yao's fault."

"Elder Gu is deliberately trying to deal with me. Even if Elder Yao objects, he will use other means to force me to go north to Hanzhou."

Yao Songtao smiled: "To be honest, Daoist Chen has just given birth to a baby, and he killed two demon kings in disguise. Yao admired him very much, and did not want to cause any discord with fellow Taoist, so he came here to explain."

"Don't worry, fellow Taoist, Yao has repaid Elder Gu's favor. If Elder Gu wants to deal with fellow Taoist and Elder Qingliu in the future, Yao will never get involved."

Afterwards, a few people exchanged some pleasantries, and Yao Songtao stood up to say goodbye.

After he left, Elder Qingliu said puzzledly: "Junior Brother Gu actually agreed to guard the Fire Hell for Elder Yao in order to deal with fellow Taoist fellows. In addition, in his own thirty years, he missed the opening time of Jueling Island. This is What do you mean?"

Chen Yuan lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said slowly: "Since he conspired with Kuntong, he should already know that the Kunyu Clan, Zhenhai Sect and Tianji Sect are hunting me, and he probably wants to kill someone with a borrowed knife."

Elder Qingliu's expression became solemn: "It is very possible that, according to what fellow Taoist said, Kuntong is the father of Kun Feng and has an sworn hatred with fellow Taoist."

"Although he changed his name to Zhenren Peng and concealed his origin, he should not conceal the identity of fellow Taoist. He has probably told Junior Brother Gu about the matter."

"Fellow Taoist has successfully conferred a baby and killed Kun Tong. As long as Junior Brother Gu informs the Kunyu clan about this, the next time Jueling Island is opened, the Kunyu Demon King will definitely cause trouble for you."

"Zhenhai Sect has a very deep enmity with fellow Taoist. Patriarch Yuntian has been chasing fellow Taoist for tens of thousands of miles and will not let him go."

"I can't let you Taoist take risks. As long as you stay in Chongde City, monk Yu Qinghai and the Kunyu clan will not dare to cause trouble to you."

"But if a fellow Taoist goes to Jueling Island, he will take the initiative to enter the urn."

"Next time Jueling Island opens, I can go there alone. Fellow Taoist, please don't take this trip through the muddy waters."

Chen Yuan frowned: "I have already promised to help fellow Taoist obtain the Qingfeng Bamboo, how can I break my promise?"

"There are still more than fifty years before the opening of Jueling Island. This matter will be discussed later. I will go to Yuqing Sea to investigate first and then make any calculations."

It's rude to come back but not reciprocate. Kun Tong chased him all the way to Renzhou. He also had news about two Kunyu demon kings in his hand, so he took this opportunity to kill the demon and get the pill.

At the same time, check to see if Elder Gu has informed the Kunyu clan about his intention to enter Jueling Island. (End of chapter)
