I became a saint by cultivating demons in a strange world

Chapter 138

Yuan Zhen Sect, in the cave.

After Li Xiao dismissed Nangong Jiaqin, he began to brew two newly obtained golden elixir materials.

Originally, he wanted to search for souls first.

But then I thought about it and forgot.

After all, soul searching will hurt the soul or even break it.

In this case, the power of the refined corpse puppet will be greatly reduced, and it will be completely without sanity.

This was what he realized when refining Feng Shihai's corpse puppet.
It was Feng Shihai who forcibly searched his soul first, causing his soul to almost break.

Therefore, when he was later refined into a corpse puppet, although the golden elixir remained, he completely lost his mind.
If Li Xiao hadn't used the combination of living refining method and twisting curse,
Refining other foundation-building monks into it,
There is no way that corpse puppet can reach the third level mid-level.

And because of the complete lack of sanity, even if the golden elixir is still there, many magical powers can no longer be used.

Especially the magic weapon, which cannot be driven at all.

Li Xiao discovered various shortcomings in refining corpse puppets in the past.

This is also the benefit of him being able to continuously enter the state of enlightenment and comprehend the techniques.

"The pure power of the corpse puppet is important, but if you can maintain the monk's magical powers and even the ability to use magic weapons, then not only will the zombie puppet's combat power be greatly increased, but it will also be able to pretend to be a monk sometimes..."

With this thought in mind, he decided not to search for the souls of these two guys.

After all, he didn't have any urgent information or techniques that he needed to get from Qianshan Sect at this time.

It would be better to keep the two intact souls to test his new corpse puppet refining method.

"However, my cultivation level is still a bit low now. If I want to use the new corpse refining method to fuse the two materials together and refine at least a third-level high-grade corpse puppet, I must at least upgrade my skills and cultivation level to gold. Only in the middle stage of Dan..."

Although he is powerful in battle at this time, outsiders think that he has already reached the middle to late stage of Golden Elixir.
In fact, his cultivation level is only the second level of the early stage of Jindan.

After buying a large amount of materials, he originally thought of going into seclusion for a period of time to improve his cultivation.

But when it came to the Qianshan Sect, it was delayed.

It can only be said that there are so many facts that he needs to deal with, and he can't even take a moment to spare.

This time he planned to stay in seclusion,

Wait until all the materials have been consumed, the corpse puppet has been refined, and the magic weapon has been refined before leaving the seclusion.

He was not going to attend Nangong Jiaqin's Golden Elixir Ceremony either.

The reason is simple, he doesn't want people from other sects to see the clues.

So he told Nangong Jiaqin that if anyone asked, he could directly say that the great elder was injured in the battle with the Qianshan Sect and needed to recuperate, so it was inconvenient to see guests.

Nangong Jiaqin was a little worried and said, "Master, if the news of your injury spreads, I'm afraid there will be someone with ulterior motives..."

Li Xiao interrupted, "I'm not seriously injured, and you are already a golden elixir cultivator. If someone dares to provoke you at this time, it would be better to kill them all and get more benefits."

Nangong Jiaqin let out a sigh and thought okay.

Li Xiao ordered, "So I will not attend your Golden Elixir Ceremony in one month. I will just entertain the guests by myself. I estimate that Xuanyue Sect will also send people to attend. Then you will say that I am in seclusion and I will not see you." Guest, don't worry about their reaction, even if you don't like it, it's okay, isn't it just a Xuanyue Sect..."

Nangong Jiaqin was a little frightened. He was just a Xuanyue Sect.

Xuanyue Sect is one of the two giants in Youzhou.

The only great Nascent Soul force.

If you offend Xuanyue Sect, you won't be able to stay in Youzhou.

Unless it's another Nascent Soul force, the Demon Alliance, who will protect him to death.

She suddenly thought that this mysterious master could not really be from the Demon Alliance.

The Demon Alliance and Xuanyue Sect, one good and one evil, were not dealt with in the first place.

It is perfectly normal for each other to send people to infiltrate each other.

This mysterious master possesses unpredictable magic skills, and there are endless magic weapons and corpses. If there is no support from a big force behind him, where will he get so many resources?

The more she thought about it, the more likely it was.

But even so, she didn't have any second thoughts about this master.

In other words, even if this person is a peerless devil, she has been bound to him, and will suffer both prosperity and loss, and it is impossible to betray him again.

Nangong Jiaqin secretly said, "If the master is really the Demon Alliance behind him, we should be more careful. If Xuanyue Sect knows that our Yuanzhen Sect has become a force of the Demon Alliance, I am afraid they will eradicate us immediately, so if If people from Xuanyue Sect really come to participate in the Golden Elixir Ceremony, they really have to be careful..."

She is actually much better than Li Xiao in dealing with these interpersonal matters.

After all, having been the leader of the Yuan Zhen Sect for so many years, all aspects must be considered.

Unlike Li Xiao who is used to doing whatever he wants,
He felt that he didn't need to care too much about Xuanyue Sect, not because there was any big force behind him.

But I feel that even if the Yuan Zhen Sect can no longer stay, they can take Nangong Jiaqin to develop elsewhere.

After all, the world of cultivation is so big, and Youzhou is just one of the states in the world of cultivation in the Western Regions.

In addition to the Western Region, there are also places as big as the Eastern, Southern and Northern Regions.
There is even the legendary Central Heaven.

The two golden elixirs cannot be developed anywhere.

Why bother to grovel to others just for the sake of a spiritual vein?

It has never been his character to compromise.

Of course, he doesn't want to go far away if it's not necessary.

Li Xiao finished his instructions and smiled slightly, "While I'm still in retreat..."

Nangong Jiaqin's face turned slightly red, and she said worriedly, "Master, you are physically injured, is it okay?"

Li Xiao said seriously, "This is a serious practice we are doing. It can not only improve your cultivation, but also heal all kinds of damage to the soul. It has endless magical uses. Now that you have broken through the golden elixir, you can help me heal my injuries."

When Nangong Jiaqin saw this, she also said seriously, "I will do my best to help my master heal his injuries..."

Li Xiao coughed lightly, "It's not necessary to be so serious. If you are too serious, it will lose the charm and the effect will not be good..."

Nangong Jiaqin's eyes were as charming as silk, "Good master..."

Li Xiao laughed, hugged him, and escaped into the palace.

This time the effect was indeed different.

After all, Nangong Jiaqin has been promoted to Jindan.

After it was over, Li Xiao felt refreshed.

All the mana and energy lost after the battle were replenished.

The spirit is relaxed, the stress is released, and you are naturally refreshed.

Nangong Jiaqin fell asleep like a baby again.

This time it worked great.

Li Xiao once again felt a rare improvement in his soul.

This kind of improvement is an increase in the upper limit, not just a simple improvement in cultivation.

For Nangong Jiaqin, this benefit will be even more obvious.

This is her future capital for Ningying.

As long as the accumulation is thick enough, condensation is no longer a problem.

Li Xiao returned to the cave feeling refreshed.

The two golden elixirs were imprisoned in the formation by him, sealing the golden elixirs' magic power and making them unconscious, and there were Feng Shihai corpse puppets guarding them, so there was no need to worry.

So he began to practice in seclusion and improve his cultivation.

In the cave, he took out piles and pools of materials, and of course many strange things were thrown into the soul refining furnace.

Originally, for his cultivation, he only needed the pure Yin evil energy refined in the soul refining furnace and his spiritual veins.

And now, because the six paths are unified, the resources required for cultivation have naturally increased many times.

The time required for cultivation will naturally be many times longer.

That is to say, he can enter the state of enlightenment. In reality, one day of enlightenment takes one year.
Otherwise, if the life span is exhausted, I'm afraid there will be no way to break through to the middle stage of the golden elixir.

He still has 190 points of Dao Yun, which is enough to break through to the middle stage of Golden Elixir.

With a thought in his mind, Li Xiao entered the state of enlightenment.

The Six Paths Kung Fu operates rapidly in the state of enlightenment.

A large amount of materials were refined by the technique and turned into pure materials, which quickly improved his cultivation level.

the other side,
Qingling Lake in Wu State.

Ever since Li Xiao went to Yue Kingdom Yuan Zhen Sect, only the two sisters Xin Qin and Xin Rong were left here, as well as some low-level monks and mortals who had been reserved before.

Xin Qin received various elixir resources from Li Xiao and finally broke through to the middle stage of Qi refining during this period.

Xin Rong's cultivation level has also been upgraded to the sixth level of Qi refining, and she can break through to the later stage of Qi refining just by waiting for the right opportunity.

Although the cultivation level of the two people still seems to be pitifully low,
But you must know that when they met Li Xiao, they were just low-level monks on the second and third levels of Qi Refining.

In just a few years, he has improved several levels of cultivation.

It can only be said that Li Xiao indeed gave them a lot of resources.

However, due to their limited qualifications, no matter how many resources they have,
It is definitely impossible to achieve much improvement in a short period of time.

During this time, the two of them would think of the old man from time to time and feel sad.Everything is fine for the master, but his life is not good. He was affected by the Golden Elixir War and died.

This is what the two of them often lament.

The two of them live on the island. Although their cultivation is not high,
But with the large formation repaired by Li Xiao and some second-level puppets, there is no need to worry about monks coming to cause trouble.

And because there is a name of the Patriarch of the Golden elixir in the casual cultivator,

The Qianshan Party was also very polite to him.

During this period, there was a turmoil and a battle between the two factions, but it did not affect Qingling Lake.

The two sisters enjoyed the peace and practice behind closed doors.

Little did they know that they could be so quiet without being harassed.

But this was the reason why Li Xiao ordered the Yuan Zhen Sect not to disturb them when they were attacking the city.

Otherwise, if the Yuan Zhen Sect counterattacked at this time, many of Wu's foundation-building forces would have suffered.

On this day, the two of them visited the main island with the scarecrow puppet as usual, and then returned to their room to practice.

However, a servant came to report that there was an old friend outside the island who wanted to see him.

The two sisters looked at each other, thinking about their old friend.

After they came to Qingling Lake, they lost contact with their original connections. How could they still have old friends visiting?

When the two came to the island, they were surprised when they saw the person coming.

Because this person is indeed an old friend. When the master was here, he would come to the island from time to time to drink and talk with him.

But at this time, seeing this person made the two of them feel a little bad.

Because this person is Yang Zhen, the general manager of Qianshan Sect.

Although the two of them have been cultivating quietly on the island, they still know some things happening outside.

Mainly because these things are too sensational,

Even if the two of them don't care,
After more than ten days, the news has spread all over the world between Wu and Yue.

So they all knew that the Qianshan Sect was in very bad shape at this time.

But when Yang Zhen comes, I'm afraid it won't do anything good.

Yang Zhen didn't get angry when he saw the two people standing hesitantly in the formation on the main island. After all, he knew his own affairs.

After seeing him during this period, it would be good if he could not directly activate the formation.

He smiled slightly and said, "You two fellow Taoists, don't you welcome me?"

His posture has been very low, and he calls the two of them Taoist friends with the title of Foundation Establishment.

Xin Qin also smiled and said, "Senior Jia Ling, how could you not welcome me? Please come in quickly..."

Xin Rong quietly pulled the corner of her sister's clothes, wanting to say something.

Xin Qin sent a message and said, "Don't worry, there is an ancestor of Jindan behind us in Qingling Lake. No matter what kind of trouble the two factions have, they don't care about our affairs. However, the Qianshan faction may be desperate at this time, so don't It's better to offend them obviously..."

Although she is not as qualified as her younger sister, she is indeed much more mature and steady in her dealings with the world.

The two opened the formation and welcomed Yang Zhen in.

"Senior, please come in. I apologize for your inconvenience..."

Yang Zhen smiled slightly, "It doesn't matter..."

The three of them came to the living room, and after serving tea,

Yang Zhen didn't mince words and said, "I'm here this time to ask to see your ancestor. I have something important to discuss. I wonder if your ancestor is here?"

Xin Qin said, "Sorry, senior, my ancestor traveled a few months ago and is not on the island."

Yang Zhen was a little disappointed, but he was also prepared for the absence.

After all, the casual cultivator of the Golden Pill, I heard, was practicing the magic method of traveling around looking for opportunities.

"Then is there any way for you to contact your ancestor?"

Xin Qin hesitated.

She does have contact information.

Before leaving, Li Xiao gave each of them a second-level communication jade talisman.

This kind of communication jade charm cannot make direct calls, can only transmit some simple information, and has a limited number of uses.

But the communication distance is very far.

Even if he was thousands of miles away in the country of Yue, he could still receive the message.

Of course, the premise is that there can’t be too much interference,
For example, during a war, the spiritual energy fluctuates greatly, or you are trapped in a secret ruin.

Seeing the two people's hesitation, Yang Zhen knew that they must have contact information, but they were just unwilling to help.

He took out a storage bag and said, "Two fellow Taoists, if you are willing to help, these spiritual stones are a thank you gift..."

Xin Qin did not answer, but said, "Senior, I think you came here to find the ancestor this time because of the matter between your two sects. My ancestor is a casual cultivator and will definitely not participate in these things." It’s okay, so…”

Yang Zhendao, "Fellow Taoist, please don't rush to a conclusion. I am here this time indeed for the sake of the sect. This matter may be easy for your ancestor, but it can gain great benefits. Please listen to me first." Speak slowly, and then decide whether to contact your ancestor..."

So he expressed the idea he had discussed with the leader.

That is to hope that the Six Paths Ancestors behind them can serve as enshrinements to the Qianshan Sect and help the Qianshan Sect stand up.

There is no need for him to swear any inner demons, as long as he stands up and cheers for the Qianshan Sect and maintains the formation at critical moments.

The benefit is that he can get 10% of Qianshanpai's annual income.

This condition cannot be too generous.

It is equivalent to giving away [-]% of Qianshan Sect's pure shares.

But he doesn't have to work hard for Qianshan Sect, he can just run away if he can't do anything.

The two sisters were also a little shocked after hearing this.

I didn’t expect Qianshan Sect to be so generous.

Yang Zhendao, "I think the Six Paths Patriarch, although he practices the magic of the devil's heart, it definitely requires resources to practice. And this time, it may be the opportunity he is looking for, so you should inform him and take a look at him. If I miss this opportunity, I'm afraid I'll blame him..."

The two sisters looked at each other,
Xin Qin made up his mind and said, "Okay, I will contact the ancestor, but if I can't get in touch, it's hard to say..."

Yang Zhen smiled slightly, "As long as you try to contact them, these spirit stones will be yours. Don't refuse. I know that if you want to contact your ancestors, you will definitely need to consume runes. This is compensation..."

He pushed over the bag containing two thousand spirit stones.

Xin Qin said seriously, "No merit will be rewarded. If we get in touch, senior will give us spiritual stones..."

Although two thousand spirit stones are already a lot of money for a Qi Refining monk.

But the two of them had the resources left by Li Xiao, so they were not short of money.

The reason why I agreed to help contact you,
Indeed, as Yang Zhen said, this may be an opportunity for the ancestor.

As for whether the ancestor is willing to take the risk of offending the Yuan Zhen Sect to gain this opportunity, that is none of their business.

So Xin Qin took out the communication jade talisman and began to try to contact the ancestor.

However, after the message was sent, there was no response.

Yang Zhen was also a little disappointed.

Xin Qin said, "Senior, why don't you go back first? When news comes from our ancestors, we will contact senior..."

It's not a problem for people from Qianshan Sect to stay on the island all the time.

If people from the Yuan Zhen Sect came and a conflict broke out, they would be in trouble.

Yang Zhen didn't embarrass the two of them, so he stood up and left. He didn't care about the two people's refusal and just left the bag of spirit stones.

"Two fellow Taoists, if you have any news about the Six Paths Patriarch, please inform me as soon as possible. Please..."

The two sisters agreed and said yes.

After seeing Yang Zhen off, the two lamented that it was such an eventful time.

Since they couldn't contact their ancestor, the two of them were not interested and began to practice the formation.

Unexpectedly, ten days later, the two of them received a reply from their ancestor.

The message is very short, just one sentence, wait for me to come back.

But it was Li Xiao who spent twenty days in seclusion in his martial arts state, and finally raised his cultivation level to the third level of the Golden Core, which was the peak of the early stage of the Golden Core.

He also did not directly break through to the middle stage of Jindan.

Instead, he exited the state of enlightenment and prepared to take a rest.

After all, in the state of enlightenment, he has been running the technique at high speed for 20 years.

Even an ascetic monk would probably not be able to bear it if he stayed in seclusion for 20 consecutive years.

So he was going to relax, adjust his condition, and break through to the middle stage of Golden Elixir.

And when he exited the state of enlightenment, he found that someone had summoned him.

When I picked it up and looked at it, I saw the message from Xin Qin.
