Chapter 31

Su Xuan looked around and saw rolling mountains.

Before joining the Shangqing Sect, he often followed the clan's hunting team into the mountains to hunt monsters. In addition, the memory of the monks was far superior to ordinary people, so he quickly recognized where it was.

Judging from the surrounding scenery, this should be a barren mountain about ten miles west of Moyang City.

"Fortunately, they didn't teleport me to a place where the sky and the sky are not working, and the earth and the earth are not responding." Su Xuan nodded slightly and made a rough estimate in his mind.

This distance, if he pushes it with all his strength, it only takes half a stick of incense to reach it...

Su Xuan didn't hesitate for too long, activated his spiritual power and flew towards Moyang City. In order to prevent encountering Jie Xiu on the way, he controlled the speed of spiritual power consumption, but despite this, he successfully reached Moyang City after burning an incense stick.

Moyang City is still like that, with people coming and going on the streets, cash-strapped San Xiu bargaining with the vendors, and a few monks walking out of Chunfeng Tower with empty steps.

Su Xuan didn't pay too much attention to this and rushed towards the Su family without stopping.

The two guards of the Su Mansion were the first to notice Su Xuan's arrival. They were surprised and quickly turned aside respectfully.

Su Xuan strode into the mansion and immediately noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the mansion.

There are plain white funeral flowers tied in front of the gates of many courtyards. It is obvious that someone has passed away...

Su Xuan immediately thought of the three elders who went with him earlier, and his heart trembled.

Those three elders can be said to be the high-end combat power of the family. No matter which one of them dies, it can be said to be a big loss.

Just when Su Xuan was about to ask a tribesman, many tribesmen passing by had already seen him, with expressions of surprise on their faces.

Among them, several core disciples of the Su family gathered around and said:

"Brother Su Xuan is really a man of great fortune. I told you that you would come back safely, and I was right."

"Brother Su Xuan, it's great to have you back. The whole Su family was a little panicked a few days ago."

"Brother Su Xuan, please go to the clan leader's courtyard quickly. The clan leader hasn't had a good rest these days."

The chaotic noise from the crowd gave Su Xuan a headache. After the noise subsided a little, he asked:

"I see there are mourning flowers in the clan, what's going on?"

As soon as this question came out, the initially joyful atmosphere dissipated and was replaced by a suppressed silence.

After a while, a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old whispered: "It was Elder Su Ping who died, and then Elder Su An was seriously injured. He was barely out of danger yesterday. I heard that many families went to hunt the Blood Spirit Spider this time. We’ve all suffered losses, and it’s great that you can come back alive, brother.”

Elder Su Ping died, Elder Su An was seriously injured...

These two pieces of news made Su Xuan feel at a loss for a while.

Elder Su Ping is already a monk at the ninth level of Qi training. He once tried to build a foundation in his early years, but it ended in failure. He can be regarded as the high-end combat power of the Su family. He originally went to hunt blood spiders and explore ancient tombs this time. He was looking for an opportunity to build a foundation, but he didn't expect that he actually fell into the tomb in the end.

Elder Su An, who is on the seventh level of Qi training, was also seriously injured, and his internal strength is expected to be greatly reduced in the short term...

Su Xuan let out a breath, nodded slightly, and after a few casual greetings, stopped lingering and walked towards the courtyard where Su Li lived.

……

The monk's five senses are extremely sharp. Although the noise Su Xuan just made was not big, it still reached Su Li's ears.

Before he reached the courtyard, Su Xuan saw a tall and muscular man already waiting at the door.

"Father." Su Xuan quickened his pace and stepped forward and shouted.

"Okay, okay, just come back alive." Su Li's face was full of joy, and he patted Su Xuan's shoulder with some fear and said, "Let's go in and talk first."

Su Xuan naturally had no objections and followed Su Li into the courtyard.

……

After having a heart-to-heart talk, Su Xuan realized how serious the impact of this hunting of the Blood Spirit Spider was.

Most of the more than ten foundation-building monks died, and two-thirds of the Qi-training monks died there... Almost every family that participated in this incident suffered considerable losses, and the Lu family recently There was also pressure from other families.

After all, this incident was organized by the Lu family. If something is gained, everyone will be happy... But if it is a loss, or a loss so big that they lose all their capital, other families will naturally be dissatisfied with the Lu family.

Of course, just dissatisfaction will not necessarily cause other families to put pressure on the Lu family. What ignites the fuse is another thing.

That is, some monks who survived said that they easily killed the Blood Spirit Spider that day, and when they saw that they were done, they were tricked by Wu Ren...

This incident directly caused the already dissatisfied families to explode, and each one demanded an explanation from the Lu family...

The Lu family has also been having a hard time recently, and the pressure from other families can barely be considered a trivial matter. What really plunged it into unrest and turmoil was the death of Lu Shounan, the head of the Lu family.

The fall of a top fighting force caused the Lu family, which was originally relatively prosperous, to feel uneasy.

Not only that, Lu Shounan's death meant that the position of clan leader was vacant.

If the ancestor of the Lu family had not stopped seclusion and forcibly maintained stability, I am afraid that the Lu family would have been able to fight for the position of the patriarch.

As for Moyang City, only two families participated in this incident, namely the Su family and the Wu family.

If the Su family suffered a small loss, then the Wu family could be said to have lost all their money.

The Qi-training monks they sent were all wiped out, and no one survived. The foundation-building monk, the head of the Wu family, survived, but he was seriously injured. His right arm was broken in half, and his strength was reduced by at least six levels.

Su Xuan could see the excitement hidden in Su Li's eyes and the cruelty behind his calm face when he said this.

Obviously, he saw an opportunity and planned to destroy the Wu family in one fell swoop and eat more cakes...

Su Xuan didn't express any opinions. In his opinion, this was indeed a good opportunity. He should take advantage of the fact that the Wu family's strength was greatly damaged...

Although there will definitely be other families stationed in Moyang City in the end, at least they can occupy greater interests in a short period of time.

While talking, Su Li naturally asked Su Xuan about the situation that day.

Su Xuan did not tell the truth, he just said that he found a formation in the cave and it happened to be teleported outside Moyang City.

Su Xuan didn't know whether Su Li believed it or not, but he didn't seem suspicious.

After talking about some things, Su suddenly thought that he had not seen Su Ying at Su's house, so he asked subconsciously. "When she saw that you didn't come back, she went with some of the Su family's disciples and servants to the place where you hunted the blood spiders before. I just sent someone to deliver the message, and they should be back soon."

After the father and son talked for a while, Su Xuan didn't stay long, got up and walked towards his courtyard.

……

Returning to his courtyard, Su Xuan let out a breath, and then started practicing according to the contents of "Thunder Mysterious Bone Technique".

Because of the dual cultivation, his cultivation level experienced an abnormal rise. Although the time of hard training was greatly shortened, this would also lead to the problem of unstable foundation.

Perhaps these problems will not break out in a short period of time, but after all, hidden dangers have been laid. If they are not resolved, the lack of security will affect the subsequent cultivation.

Su Xuan was only in his early twenties, and his deadline was far away. Naturally, he would not do such a wasteful thing, so after returning to his courtyard, the first thing he did was to polish the foundation.

There are many ways to polish the foundation. The simplest one is to keep casting spells, consuming your own spiritual power, and then replenishing your spiritual power through practice.

After doing this again and again, the spiritual power in the body will be solidified a lot. If you do it a few more times, the foundation that was originally somewhat superficial will naturally become solid.

Su Xuan concentrated his spiritual power on the sword and swung it out violently. After practicing this for a hundred times, the spiritual power in his body was finally exhausted.

When his spiritual power was exhausted, Su Xuan sat on the futon and practiced the "Thunder Mysterious Bone Technique" bit by bit.

Time passed by, the sun rose in the east and set in the west. By the time Su Xuan replenished the spiritual power in his body for the third time, the sky was already dark.

He gently exhaled a breath of turbid air, feeling a lot of spiritual power condensed in his body, with a look of satisfaction on his face.

"As long as I come back three times tomorrow, the foundation will be solid and all the side effects of dual cultivation will be resolved."

After muttering, Su Xuan's consciousness spread slightly, then he raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "What are you doing standing at the door? Come in."

The door to the courtyard was pushed open, and a girl who was dusty but still could not conceal her beautiful appearance walked in.

"Sir, that's great. You are indeed fine." Su Ying was a little excited, with a look of joy on her face.

That day, when she learned that her son was not among the surviving monks, her heart suddenly sank. Fortunately, none of those people witnessed Su Xuan's death...

During the two days when the group of people went searching together, Su Ying was always in a state of anxiety, fear and constant expectation.

It wasn't until she saw Su Xuan standing in front of her alive that her heart settled.

"How could I die there if I cherish my life so much?" Su Xuan stretched his body, with a hint of smile in his tone, "It seems like you haven't had much rest these days, why don't you go get some sleep first?"

"No, I'm not very tired." Su Ying shook her head and didn't know what to say for a moment. After thinking for a moment, she said: "Sir, should we go back to the sect."

Su Xuan nodded and said: "It's almost time. We will go back in a few days. You can also make preparations these days."

Originally, this time we were going down the mountain on a sect mission, but because we still had time left, we went back to Moyang City. Unexpectedly, so many things happened.

First, he met the destined son of the Lin family, and then it was the wedding of the Lu family. The son-in-law was also a destined son, and then the Blood Spirit Spider...

Su Xuan feels a little tired now when he thinks about all these things.

After going down the mountain for so long, it’s time to go back...

‘When I go back this time, I want to form an elixir. Now that I have the dual cultivation method, I can grasp the spiritual essence of the Xuanyin body. ’ Su Xuan suddenly thought of this matter and began to think about it secretly.

Since we want to seize the spiritual essence of the Xuanyin body, it is not suitable to leave Xiao Wanyue here anymore. Taking it with us is the best choice...

Although ordinary disciples can only enter the sect alone, if they become inner disciples or even true disciples, the so-called restrictions are actually not that many.

Especially the true disciples can have their own independent courtyard, and it is not a problem to even bring a group of servants... Of course, these servants cannot secretly learn the Qing Sect's exercises.

Because he had been practicing hard in the sect before and had not gone down the mountain much, Su Xuan did not have many servants around him. This time he could take this opportunity to take Xiao Wanyue away...

Following Xiao Wanyue, Su Xuan thought of another thing, so he looked at the sleepy Su Ying and asked, "Have you bought all the materials I asked you to buy before I left?"

"Everything has been bought and will be placed in your room, Master." Su Ying rubbed her eyes, her voice a bit tired.

Su Xuan nodded, looking at Su Ying's half-asleep and half-awake look, there was a hint of smile in his tone, "Okay, you should go take a nap first, you are already so exhausted."

This time Su Ying didn't hold on any longer and walked to the penthouse obediently.

After watching her walk into the room, Su Xuan looked at the moonlight in the sky. His brows and eyes were no longer as gentle as before, but looked a little cold.

"I was busy recently, but I didn't do much with the body of the Son of Destiny... The Soul-eating Demonic Wooden Body, this is a good material for refining corpses."

As a villain, Su Xuan also mastered some skills, such as one of the less popular arts of cultivating immortals - corpse refining.

The method of refining corpses was regarded as a kind of demonic method in the early years, and it was the kind that everyone in the righteous monks could kill. In the past hundred years, it has become much better, but not many righteous monks know this craft.

There was no one around Su Xuan who knew this skill. He also learned it after hunting a child of destiny and receiving rewards from the system.

He thought that this skill would never be used in the future, but unexpectedly he encountered a good material.

The soul-eating demon wood body has extremely powerful vitality and a physique that far exceeds that of monks of the same level. It is simply the best material.

If some professional corpse refiners were to see this corpse, it wouldn't be a problem to sell it for several thousand low-grade spiritual stones.

……

In the next three days, Su Xuan's life became monotonous.

Basically, it means polishing the foundation, refining the corpse, and practicing...

However, cultivating immortals requires being able to endure loneliness, and Su Xuan has also made certain progress in the past few days.

The first was to refine the corpse. After three days of hard work, he finally turned Lin Ye into a corpse puppet. Although Lin Ye's cultivation had been abolished, his physical strength was still that of a foundation-building monk.

And because of his special physique, although he was only a monk in the early stage of foundation building during his lifetime, after being transformed into a corpse puppet, his physical strength was comparable to those in the middle stage of foundation building.

In actual combat, if he could get close to those monks, Su Xuan believed that this corpse puppet would definitely produce miraculous effects.
