Nine Transformations of the True Spirit

Wang Cexun directly gave his cave to Chen Yuan, which was also the place with the richest spiritual energy in the Wang family.

A spirit gathering array was set up in the cave, and the concentration of spiritual energy was slightly better than that of a small spiritual vein. Although it was very thin for a Yuanying cultivator, it was much stronger than directly absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Compared with Jiuxianzhou, Donghuazhou was like a place without spiritual energy.

Even in Chen Yuan's perception, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in Donghuazhou was a little thinner than when he left more than a hundred years ago.

After Wang Cexun withdrew, Chen Yuan set up another array in the cave to prevent others from spying.

Although the Wang family was weak and Wang Cexun was extremely respectful, he had to be on guard against others. At any time, Chen Yuan would not let down his guard.

After Chen Yuan went into seclusion, Wang Cexun strictly prohibited others from approaching the cave, and ordered the foundation-building elders to be on duty personally, and never allowed low-level cultivators in the clan to disturb this Yuanying senior.

He could become the head of a family, and he was a thoughtful person. He was worried that this Yuanying senior had bad intentions, so he sent spiritual tea to show the relationship between the Wang family and the Jinwu Sect.

The thousand-year-old spiritual tea was indeed offered to Tong Zhenren, but it was sent by an elder of the Jinwu Sect who was on good terms with Wang Cexun. Wang Cexun had never met Tong Zhenren.

If the Wang family really provoked a Yuanying cultivator, Tong Zhenren would never stand up for the Wang family.

Fortunately, this Yuanying senior had no ill intentions. Wang Cexun breathed a sigh of relief and his thoughts changed.

There were only three Yuanying cultivators in the entire Wei Kingdom, and they were also the masters of the three major sects in Wei Kingdom, controlling the cultivation world of Wei Kingdom.

Even if the Wang family only borrowed some of the name of this senior, their status in the cultivation world of Wei Kingdom would rise.

After thinking it over, Wang Cexun summoned all the Qi-refining cultivators in the clan and forbade them to discuss today's events.

But he privately asked the foundation-building cultivators of the Wang family to spread the news. After a few days, the news reached the ears of cultivators outside the Wang family.

There were two immortal cultivation families that had some disputes with the Wang family because of some trivial matters.

When they learned that a Yuanying cultivator came to visit the Wang family, they were all surprised and suspicious.

One of the Ye family immediately stopped and gave in everywhere, allowing the Wang family to take advantage of it.

The other Wei family, the ancestor was an elder of the Jinwu Sect. When he was old, he got the approval of the head of the Jinwu Sect and left the sect to establish a family. He has been a vassal of the Jinwu Sect for generations.

After the Wei family learned of this news, they did not believe the words of the Wang family cultivators at first. Yuanying cultivators are so rare, and there are only three in the entire Wei Kingdom. How could the Wang family have a relationship with a Yuanying cultivator?

But the Wang family cultivators swore solemnly, and even the fact that Wang Cexun personally presented five taels of Chunming tea was vividly described.

The cultivators of the Wei family could not help but feel suspicious, worried that the Wang family really had a Yuanying cultivator as a backer, so they chose to give in and reported the matter to the Jinwu Sect.

On the eleventh day of Chen Yuan's retreat, a cultivator came to the Wang family.

This person looked to be about forty years old, tall, with bright eyes, dressed in a white shirt, and walked with big strides, very imposing.

Under the guidance of a foundation-building cultivator of the Wang family, he came to the main hall of the Wang family and met Wang Cexun.

Wang Cexun stood up to greet him and bowed: "I didn't know that Daoyou Cao was visiting today. I am sorry for not welcoming you. Please take a seat."

The white-shirted cultivator returned the greeting and smiled, "I am sorry for bothering you."

The two sat down as host and guest, and the Qi-refining cultivator served spiritual tea.

Wang Cexun waved his hand, dismissed the Qi-refining monk who was serving beside him, and asked with a smile: "Is everything okay, Fellow Daoist Shen?"

"My master went out to travel three years ago and has not returned yet, but his life-definition lamp has not been extinguished, so it should be fine." The white-shirted monk picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Wang Cexun said: "When Fellow Daoist Shen returns from his travels, please let Fellow Daoist Cao know that I will visit your sect's mountain range in person."

The master of the white-shirted monk is Shen Shu, a cultivator in the middle stage of Jindan, and he has a good relationship with Wang Cexun.

The Chunming Tea that the Wang family offered to the head of the Jinwu Sect, Master Tong, was made by Shen Shu.

The white-shirted monk is Shen Shu's only Jindan disciple, and is highly valued by Shen Shu.

He put down the teacup and said, "I had the honor to taste the Wang family's Chunming tea in my master's house. It has a mellow taste, moisturizing the heart and lungs, clearing the mind and brightening the eyes. It is truly the only one I have ever seen."

"This cup of tea is a little bland. I wonder if I have the honor to taste the taste of Chunming tea again today?"

Wang Cexun smiled and said, "Unfortunately, if Daoyou Cao had come a few days earlier, I would have served him Chunming tea."

"But a distinguished guest came to visit the Wang family a few days ago, and I have given away all the spiritual tea in my hand."

"If Daoyou Cao wants to taste Chunming tea, he can wait six years, and when the thousand-year-old spiritual tea tree sprouts, I will definitely send the spiritual tea to Daoyou."

The white-shirted monk's eyes flashed, "Is this true? I heard that this distinguished guest is a Yuanying senior. I wonder if this rumor is true or false?"

Jinwu sent the Wei family to report that a Yuanying cultivator came to the Wang family. They attached great importance to this matter and immediately sent him to find out the truth.

Originally, the best candidate was his master Shen Shu, but Shen Shu was traveling outside. As Shen Shu's only Jindan disciple, and having met Wang Cexun several times, he took the job.

There were only three Yuanying cultivators in Weiguo, and a Yuanying cultivator of unknown origin was highly valued by the Jinwu Sect.

Wang Cexun's face changed slightly: "From whom did you hear about it, Fellow Daoist Cao?"

The white-shirted cultivator smiled and said: "This matter has already spread, and many people know about it."

Wang Cexun frowned: "Without the permission of the distinguished guest, I have nothing to say."

The white-shirted monk's eyes narrowed slightly, which was no different from directly admitting it.

His expression became much more serious: "I wonder which Yuanying senior came to visit the Wang family?"

Wang Cexun shook his head: "I have nothing to say, so don't ask, Daoyou Cao."

The white-shirted monk's eyes lit up, and Wang Cexun's attitude made him more certain that there was indeed a Yuanying monk visiting the Wang family.

He said: "The head master is waiting for this senior to come to visit. Please tell Daoyou Wang for me."

Wang Cexun smiled and was about to speak, but suddenly his expression changed and he stood up.

"Daoyou Cao, wait a moment, I will be back soon." He bowed and walked out of the hall in a hurry.

The white-shirted monk was puzzled, but the guest should follow the host's wishes. Since Wang Cexun had spoken, he could only wait in the hall.

After Wang Cexun walked out of the hall, he flew to a mountain more than 300 feet away, and the flight light fell.

On the top of the mountain, the stone door of the cave was open. Chen Yuan stood on the edge of the cliff, looking at the horizon, with a leisurely look.

Wang Cexun bowed and said respectfully: "Welcome senior to come out of retreat."

He lent the cave to Chen Yuan, but the formation outside the cave was still controlled by the family master's token.

When Chen Yuan opened the formation, he felt something, and he didn't care about dealing with the white-shirted monk anymore, and immediately came to pay homage to this Yuanying senior.

Chen Yuan retracted his gaze and said lightly: "Thank you for the trouble of the Wang family master to lend the spiritual vein and even the cave. This seat's true essence has been fully restored, and it's time to say goodbye."

Wang Cexun secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Having a Yuanying monk around him, even if he had no ill intentions, made people feel uneasy.

But he felt a little reluctant. In the past few days, the Wang family had the upper hand in the conflict with the Ye family and the Wei family, and this was just a small borrowing of the name of the Yuanying cultivator.

If there really was a Yuanying cultivator as a backer, how glorious would the Wang family be?

However, Wang Cexun knew that such things could only be thought about in his heart, and even if he just borrowed the name of the Yuanying cultivator, he had to be extremely careful.

"It is a blessing for the Wang family that you can be a guest..." He clasped his fists and bowed, with a hesitant look on his face, "But before you leave, I have something to report, please forgive me."

"What crime has the head of the Wang family committed?"

Wang Cexun bowed deeply, looking uneasy: "After the senior went into seclusion, I have ordered the cultivators in the clan to keep their mouths shut and not to leak it out."

"But I didn't control my subordinates strictly, and the matter was still spread out. Some people who don't know the inside story think that the senior has a history with the Wang family. Please forgive me."

Chen Yuan said lightly: "This matter is not a secret, it doesn't matter if it is spread out, the head of the Wang family doesn't have to blame himself."

Wang Cexun secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He saw that this Yuanying senior looked kind and didn't seem to be a moody person. He really didn't want to miss such a good opportunity, so he asked the foundation-building cultivators in the clan to spread the news secretly and borrow the name of this senior.

Now it seems that he made the right bet.

Just as Wang Cexun thought, Chen Yuan didn't care about such a small matter.

Donghuazhou is not Yuqinghai, and no sect is chasing him.

He has never offended the Yuanying cultivators in Donghuazhou, so it's not a big deal if his whereabouts are leaked.

But he wanted to reward Wang Cexun with some spiritual stones and elixirs as compensation for borrowing the spiritual veins.

Since the Wang family has borrowed his name and gained some benefits, he is not going to take out these spiritual stones and elixirs.

Wang Cexun showed gratitude and bowed again: "Senior, you are magnanimous. I will clarify this matter to my fellow Taoists."

"However, the Jinwu Sect has received the news and sent an elder, saying that Tong Zhenren invited the senior to visit."

"I dare not reveal the senior's whereabouts without the senior's permission. How to deal with this matter, please tell me."

Chen Yuan's heart moved, and Wang Cexun introduced him in detail the Weiguo Xiuxian world. The Jinwu Sect is one of the three major sects in Weiguo, which has been passed down for thousands of years and has a very deep foundation.

Tong Zhenren, the head of Jinwu Sect, has the cultivation of the early stage of Yuanying, and has lived for more than 800 years. He is highly respected in the cultivation world of Weiguo.

Such a Yuanying cultivator with many years of experience should have a lot of good things in his hands.

After Chen Yuan came out of retreat, he wanted to rush back to Qiguo immediately, but if Tong Zhenren invited him, there was no need to rush at this time.

He changed his mind and said lightly: "Since Tong Daoyou invited me, how can I be rude? Where is the elder of Jinwu Sect now?"

Wang Cexun was overjoyed: "Senior, please follow me."

If this Yuanying senior can make friends with Tong Zhenren, the relationship between Wang family and Jinwu Sect will be closer.

The two then came to the main peak of Wang family, dropped the escape light, and walked into the hall.

The white-shirted monk sat on the Taishi chair and looked outside the hall. Seeing Wang Cexun coming in, he immediately stood up to greet him and asked: "Wang Daoyou, are you going..."

Before he finished speaking, Chen Yuan walked in. His eyes moved to Chen Yuan and he was suddenly stunned.

Wang Cexun said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Cao, I will introduce you to this senior..."

"But Uncle Chen in person?" The white-shirted monk suddenly interrupted him, took two steps at a time, came to Chen Yuan, and bowed deeply.

Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment, but when he heard this address, his heart moved, and he carefully looked at the face of the white-shirted monk and saw some familiarity.

"Are you... Cao Xianji?"

The white-shirted monk was full of joy, and he knelt down on the ground and kowtowed heavily: "My nephew greets my uncle!"

Chen Yuan looked him up and down, and smiled: "My dear nephew, there is no need to be polite, get up."

Cao Xianji kowtowed three times respectfully before standing up.

Wang Cexun stood aside, looking at Cao Xianji who was kneeling and kowtowing, with a face full of surprise: "Fellow Daoist Cao is a relative of the senior?"

Cao Xianji still couldn't hide his joy on his face, without the calmness that a Jindan cultivator should have.

He shook his head and explained: "My father and Uncle Chen are old friends. After my father died, Cao and my mother also received a lot of care from Uncle Chen."

Wang Cexun suddenly realized and hurriedly bowed to Chen Yuan: "Junior didn't know that Fellow Daoist Cao and the senior had a close relationship. I neglected Fellow Daoist Cao. Please forgive me."

Chen Yuan came to the main seat and sat down, waving his hand: "Ignorance is not a crime. Chen didn't expect to see Nephew Cao here. I haven't seen Nephew Cao for more than a hundred years."

Cao Xianji looked at Chen Yuan: "Yes One hundred and thirty-seven years have passed, and my uncle's appearance has not changed at all. My nephew recognized him as soon as he saw him. "

Chen Yuan smiled: "My dear nephew, I remember it clearly."

Cao Xianji said: "My uncle's kindness will never be forgotten. I want to repay my uncle all the time, but I regret that we will never meet again."

"When we parted, my uncle was only a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building. However, in just one hundred and thirty-seven years, my uncle has already formed a Yuanying. Congratulations to my uncle for his great progress in cultivation and a long life!"

After saying that, he bowed deeply again.

Chen Yuan smiled and said: "My dear nephew, there is no need to be polite."

Wang Cexun was more and more shocked as he listened, and he kept glancing at Chen Yuan.

It took only one hundred and thirty-seven years for this senior Chen to go from the late stage of foundation building to the formation of Yuanying.

And it took him one hundred and eighty-four years to cultivate from the early stage of Jindan to the middle stage of Jindan!

This speed is still fast. Most Jindan cultivators stay in the early stage of Jindan for their entire lives, and very few can break through the bottleneck of the middle stage.

This senior Chen broke through four bottlenecks in a hundred and thirty-seven years, including the three disasters of the Nascent Soul.

This speed of cultivation can no longer be described as genius, it is simply unheard of and unseen.

No, this senior Chen is definitely not just forming a Nascent Soul, and I don’t know how much time will be shortened.

Wang Cexun was shocked. He had never heard of any Nascent Soul cultivator who formed a Nascent Soul so quickly, even the Tianlinggen cultivators were far behind.

Chen Yuan did not notice the change in Wang Cexun’s expression. Looking at Cao Xianji in front of him, he thought of Cao Yourenman and the past time in Huanyue Market.

He turned to look at Wang Cexun: "Master Wang, can Chen stay for another night to chat with nephew Cao?"

Wang Cexun quickly replied: "Senior, you can stay as long as you want in the Wang family."

"Then please ask Master Wang to arrange a guest house." Chen Yuan said.

Wang Ce Xun did not dare to neglect and personally led Chen Yuan to a beautiful mountain peak, which was the Wang family's Yingbin Peak.

There was a three-courtyard courtyard on the top of the mountain, which was the largest courtyard on Yingbin Peak.

Wang Ce Xun personally handed the token that controlled the formation to Chen Yuan, and then tactfully withdrew.

Chen Yuan and Cao Xianji came to the main hall. Chen Yuan asked Cao Xianji to sit down, but he shook his head repeatedly and insisted on standing by. Chen Yuan did not force him.

He sat in the main seat and asked, "How is Daoyou Ren now?" (End of this chapter)
