Seeking Immortals

  Chapter 290 Asking the Underworld

   Two Taoists, one tall and one short, searched for the Yuanying's relics on a mountain in the central region, and searched for two months without success.

   Both of them are foundation-building monks, looking for inheritance everywhere, seeking the method of exchanging the alchemy.

Another month later, the short Taoist was a little impatient, and said: "Fellow Taoist, can the source of the news be false? If there is really a dead treasure of a Daoist in the late Yuanying period here, whoever gets the news will take the initiative to look for it, so why not take turns?" to the two of us."

   "It can't be fake." The tall Taoist thought, "I found out from the disciples of the Netherworld Sect that the man was seriously injured and dying. I took the opportunity to capture him and asked about the secrets here."

  The short man said: "There are a lot of opportunities in the Central Territory now, and the two of us don't need to focus on this. If we really can't find the relic, we can go elsewhere."

  The tall Taoist replied: "Look for another two months, if not, go to another place, I have other news."

  The two Taoists continued to search for the treasure. A few days later, the short Taoist suddenly found a cave and identified some traces outside the cave. He said happily, "I found it. The treasure is in the cave!"

  The two stepped into the cave in surprise. As soon as they entered, they felt a tingling sensation under their feet. They were stabbed by inexplicable nails, and their feet were instantly paralyzed and unable to control.

   "Not good, there is a trap!"

  The two were terrified, and as soon as they yelled out the words, they saw two corpses attacking from the depths of the cave, slamming into their bodies, and a pain of being hit by a heavy object came from all over their bodies.

  The tall and short Taoist was directly knocked out of the hole, vomiting blood profusely.

  A gloomy monk wrapped in a black cloth walked out of the cave.

   "It's you, you didn't die!" The tall Taoist recognized the wrapped-faced monk as the disciple of the Netherworld Sect who was seriously injured and dying.

  How could the tall Taoist not know now that this was a conspiracy at all, that person was not dead at all, although he destroyed the body and traces at that time, it was definitely not the other person's real body.

"Of course I'm not dead, otherwise I wouldn't be able to attack today. In addition, I'm not a disciple of the Netherworld Sect, but a casual cultivator who has occasionally acquired the corpse path inheritance. I'm Sun Zheng!" the wrapped-faced monk said coldly, continuing to direct the refining corpse to attack the tall and short monk.

Sun Zheng was only at the early stage of foundation establishment, and his cultivation level was not as good as that of tall and short monks, and the corpses he used were only refined with the body of the qi refiner. After three months, the other party broke into the hemp needle trap he had set up earlier and was injured. Go all out.

   Facing the corpse-refining attack, the tall and short monks resisted for a while, and relying on their cultivation to be superior, they used their mana to escape.

   "How could I be escaped by you? If I didn't want to keep your physical body intact, I would have other methods to take your life." Sun Zheng laughed loudly, and took out another spirit banner.

  As soon as the flag came out, the dark wind was raging in this area, and the sky was quite dark.

  The name of the flag is Wanling Banner, a top-grade spiritual weapon, which is refined by absorbing ten thousand true spirits.

  The body of this treasure is actually a mysterious flag embryo, which is affected by the true spirit in the flag. If the banner spirit is superior, it can be transformed into a mysterious weapon.

  Wan Ling Banner has a long history, it was refined thousands of years ago, and it was born in the age of weak spirits.

  The earliest owner of the banner was named Gu You, and Gu You found this treasure from an ancient tomb. At that time, there was no real spirit in the banner.

After Gu You refined the banners of all spirits, he began to refine banner spirits with true spirits. Due to the limitations of the age of weak spirits, the banner spirits that Gu You first refined were just a group of knight-errants and some monks below the third level of Qi refining true spirit.

  Affected by this low-level true spirit, the rank of the Wanling Banner is affected.

   After several generations of flag owners, it took thousands of years to become the banner of all spirits.

  All of these, when Sun Zheng obtained the Wanling Banner, he recorded them all, and even left some images. Every time a banner spirit is included in the Wanling Banner, there is a record of his death image.

  This kind of image will be used as an illusion in the streamer for attack.

  Decades ago, the previous Banner Master died due to a conflict in the Central Territory, and the Wanling Banner was left behind, which was accidentally obtained by Sun Zheng.

  Sun Zheng waved the spirit banner, and thousands of banner spirits poured out, surrounding the Taoist priests high and low. The Taoist priests, tall and short, felt that they had fallen into the abyss and hell, terrified and restless.

  Sun Zheng controlled the corpse refining to keep up, successfully beheaded the tall and short Taoist, took his true spirit into the banner, and collected his corpse.

  …

   At the same time, Li Qing, who was sitting cross-legged in a certain base in the area controlled by the former White Lotus Immortal Sect in the Central Territory, suddenly opened his eyes.

  The moon-centered compass in his hand turned, pointing steadily in one direction.

   "After more than three months, the moon heart compass can guide Mingwei's reincarnation as a true spirit. It's really strange."

  Li Qing was guided by the moon-centered compass, and entered the Central Territory from the Northwest Territory. Before entering the Central Territory, the compass guidance became invalid.

  The change of Mingwei's reincarnation made Li Qing feel that it was a bit tricky, and the other party might not be in a normal state, so he stopped here and waited.

   "According to the compass guidance, I am familiar with that direction."

  The compass points to the location, which is very close to Li Qing's location.

   Together with Li Qing, he arrived at the area where the dark monks ambushed the tall and short monks.

  In this area, Li Qing had been there during the battle of chance between Dongxu and Mu Muxiao. They were ambushed by the four great sects.

  Just here, the compass loses its guiding function.

   But it doesn't matter, after Li Qing's perception, there is only one monk here, and not long ago, there was a fight and two people died.

  Li Qing stretched out his hand, and a giant palm gathered in the sky.

  In an instant, a group of dark clouds flew out from the mountain, and fled away quickly. With a surge of mana, Li Qing took out the cloud.

   "Master, spare your life!" Sun Zheng was caught by Li Qing, begging for mercy in panic.

  Sun Zheng didn't expect that he had just finished ambushing the tall and short monks, put away the Wanling Banner, and was cleaning the battlefield when he encountered a monk named Nascent Soul passing by.

  He dodged immediately, but naturally he couldn't escape the detection of Nascent Soul cultivator.

   "You tell me what happened here before, but there are omissions, which will destroy your true spirit!" Li Qing said lightly, he naturally recognized that the other party was a monk of the corpse.

   But judging by his aura, he is not an orthodox disciple of Huang Quanzong.

  The gloomy monk didn't dare to hide anything, so he told the story of the ambush of the tall and short monks in detail, and offered a banner of all spirits.

   "Wan Ling Banner, the true spirit of Wan Dao was refined into the Banner Spirit, and the Mingwei True Spirit, could it be refined into a Banner Spirit?" Li Qing frowned, touched the banner, released all the spirits in the banner, and then activated the Moon Heart Compass.

  The compass pointer was aimed straight at a banner spirit with a blurred face.

  Li Qing knew in his heart that this must be the true spirit of Mingwei, and the other party had indeed been refined into a banner spirit, probably for thousands of years.

  Not allowed to guide by the compass, Li Qing himself could not perceive the connection between this Banner Spirit and Mingwei Banner Spirit, the two are completely different.

  The banner spirit has completely lost its true spirit and cannot be reincarnated at all.

  Li Qing shook Sun Zheng into nothingness with a wave of his hand. Before he died, Sun Zheng shouted that he had just accidentally obtained the inheritance of the Wanling Banner, and the inner banner spirit was not cultivated by him.

  One day later, Li Qing sacrificed the Wanling Banner and pointed out the images recorded in the banner to know the cause and effect.

  When Mingwei's true spirit was collected into the banner, it was still in the age of weak spirits. That was Mingwei's third life.

   "Trouble, the true spirit has been refined into a banner spirit, and it can no longer be reincarnated." Li Qing's current state, naturally sees that the banner spirit is no longer a true spirit.

  He summoned the black flood dragon, and the black flood dragon practiced the way of corpses, wondering if he could provide insights.

  Hei Jiao also shook his head: "My lord, I can't help the banner spirits to reincarnate. These banner spirits have been refined by corpse methods, so they are not considered real spirits. Forced reincarnation will turn newborns into dead babies."

  Hei Jiao thought for a while, and said: "However, the White Lotus Immortal Sect has a long tradition, so there may be other solutions."

   "That's true." After Li Qing nodded, he returned to the sect to talk.

  Going out on this trip, Li Qing disguised himself and walked slowly all the way, hiding his energy and not showing his mana, but he was not targeted by Huang Quanzong.

   Although there were some twists and turns in the journey to find the old man's true spirit, it finally went smoothly. Ling Jiao, Baili Flying Eagle, and Mingwei's true spirit were all found.

  Li Qing also tried to use the compass to guide some other old people, some of them have lost their true spirits, and some of them are still in reincarnation.

  …

   Half a month later, Li Qing returned to the Bailian Xianzong, searched through the sect's classics, but couldn't figure out how to reincarnate the banner spirit, and finally went to the Hall of Reincarnation to inquire.

  The disciples of the Hall of Reincarnation have a lot of experience in the matter of reincarnation.

  A reincarnation elder said: "To reincarnate the banner spirit, you must first nourish the banner spirit with the original aura for 20 years, cleanse it of lead, and get rid of old diseases."

   "Then, let it be attached to a baby, form a twin true soul, and turn into a secondary spirit, stay in the baby's body, accompany it for a lifetime, and be infected with the world of mortals for a lifetime."

   "Afterwards, the banner spirit will recover its original spirituality and become a normal true spirit, which can be reincarnated."

  After asking about the method, Li Qing put Mingwei's true spirit into the master's training pool of the Nine Palaces, where there is the original aura.

   "The past is over for now, and it's time for me to continue thinking about the way of the hole."

  Li Qing no longer cares about foreign affairs, retreats to understand himself, and then realizes the path of practice.

  Gu Feiying went to Bailian Xianzong and practiced with Li Qing in the Nine Palaces. The cultivation environment is unique.

  Li Qing bestowed the remaining White Lotus Immortal Token to Gu Feiying, giving him the true identity of the current world, after all, he is a great disciple.

  Li Qing no longer needs this White Lotus Immortal Token.

  Time is like water, and twenty years have passed in a flash.

  Gu Feiying has grown to twenty-nine years old, and his cultivation has entered the middle stage of foundation establishment. His spiritual root has been retrained, and his aptitude is no worse than other disciples of the sect, and he has only lost some lifespan.

   Mingwei's true spirit completed the spiritual nourishment, was taken back by Li Qing, and buried in the Nine Layers Youchi.

   Another year passed in the blink of an eye.

  On this day, Li Qing finished his retreat and called Gu Feiying.

   "Master, are you looking for me?" Gu Feiying bowed and saluted.

  Li Qing said calmly: "As a teacher, there are many disciples. Although your cultivation base is weak, you are indeed a great disciple. You need to deal with various matters of the teacher's school."

   "Your second junior brother is dead, your third junior sister is now in Yinyang Kongyu, she is a Nascent Soul cultivator, and now there is a fourth junior sister who is worth reincarnation, you go and get her."

   "Fourth Junior Sister..." Gu Feiying was overjoyed when he heard that, "This disciple will surely bring Junior Sister back to the sect!"

  Li Qing turned his head away, calling the black dragon to accompany Gu Feiying, now to pick up Ling Jiao's reincarnation, the time is about the same.

  After giving the order, Li Qing turned around and fled to the Hall of Eternal Life.

  Li Qing was about to ask His Highness Changsheng for instructions, when a white lotus rose from under his feet and supported him.

   "The Lord of the Ninth Palace has something to do, so you can come straight to the inner hall." Mu Jianqiu's voice came from the hall.

  Li Qing entered the Deli Hall, bowed and said: "I have met the head teacher."

   "After many years of retreat, you should have gained something. If you have anything to do, just say it." Mu Jianqiu said leisurely.

  Li Qing Jishou said: "I would like to report to the head teacher, I have been retreating and seeking the Tao these years, and I have a feeling in my heart. I am 70% sure that I will pass the Dharma, but the cultivation path of the disciple is different. The opportunity for the Dharma should be in the underworld."

   "The disciple wants to take a trip to the underworld."
