ninety thousand miles

Chapter 532 Compromise
"About three thousand years ago, the Tianyu Sect was in a period of transition. Many of the predecessors ascended to heaven at about the same time. Although there were many new generations, they were not strong enough to support the sect. The only top fighter was Immortal Qiong. So Immortal Qiong protected the Tianyu Sect for more than two thousand two hundred years." Sect Master Wang slowly recounted Immortal Qiong's deeds and said, "So I have always wanted to repair her life magic weapon."

"I'll try my best." said Li Chuan.

"The Xiquan flute blocked the thunder for Immortal Qiong, so its fragments are also stained with the aura of thunder. I used its fragments to feel the thunder and gained a lot of insights." Sect Leader Wang talked about the flute. "I have consulted many weapon refiners, and they said that it is not difficult to repair the Xiquan flute, but the first thing to do is to remove the energy of the thunder that remains on it. And I want to keep it. So the matter of repairing the Xiquan flute has been put on hold."

"I don't know if I can..." Li Chuan hesitated.

"Try it first." Sect Leader Wang said, "It has been eight or nine hundred years since Immortal Qiong ascended to heaven. There is no need to rush. The Xiquan flute is a very good sound-killing magic weapon. I heard that you have come into contact with it. Perhaps the process of repairing the Xiquan flute can also give you some insights."

"I'll try my best." Li Chuan agreed.

"Okay." said Master Wang.

At this time, Li Chuan noticed something strange. Ever since he and Wen Guying came here, the old palace master said a word and then stopped talking. Sect Master Chu and Jiang Mei didn't say a word either. It was Sect Master Wang who was talking the whole time.

Could it be that they are quarreling again?
Just as Li Chuan was thinking this, Sect Master Chu spoke up and said, "During the catastrophe, the Xuan Sect should have avoided the world and preserved itself, but now we are actively entering the catastrophe one by one. I don't know how many people will survive after this catastrophe."

Li Chuan was about to say something when Wen Guying pressed his shoulder. Then he heard Wen Guying say, "The rise and fall of calamities are all predetermined. Even if the Xuanmen sect is almost wiped out like it was 30,000 years ago, there will always be new Xuanmen sects rising up."

Master Chu said: "I always want to preserve something."

The old palace master said: "I didn't let your Xuanyue Sect suffer any loss, what do you mean by saying this?"

Sure enough, they started arguing.

Sect Leader Wang tried to smooth things over again and said, "Alright, alright, we've already discussed it, let's just follow the rules." He said to Wen Guying and Li Chuan, "That's about it, go do whatever you need to do first."

Li Chuan immediately stood up and said, "Okay, I'll go first. I'll go see Wukong and the others."

"I'll go with you." Wen Guying said.

"I'll go too," said Jiang Mei.

Afterwards, the three of them said goodbye to the three masters and walked out.

After walking across the rope bridge, Li Chuan asked Jiang Mei: "Master Jiang, did the three sect leaders quarrel again just now?"

"That's right," Jiang Mei admitted with a bitter face, and said, "The old palace master was thinking about how to deal with Weng Xian. But Sect Leader Chu felt that our speculation about Weng Xian might not be correct, so..."

"Old Palace Master thinks Xuanmen can deal with Immortal Weng?" Li Chuan was very surprised.

Jiang Mei said: "The old palace master thinks there is a slight possibility."

"What are the details?" Li Chuan asked.

Jiang Mei looked at Wen Guying.

Wen Guying said: "Weng Xian may be able to replace Tian Dao for a short period of time, but at that moment, Tian Dao is standing on the opposite side of him, and he must pay a huge price for it. So at that moment, we may have a chance to defeat him."

"But he is in the upper realm, how can we defeat him?" Li Chuan asked.

"Because when he replaces the Heavenly Dao, he will definitely need to extract the spiritual energy from all the spiritual veins in this world. He will definitely appear at the Heavenly Pillar to gather the scattered spiritual veins. That is our chance." Wen Guying said, "According to the old Palace Master's idea, if the entire Xuanmen's foundation is fully exposed, then Sect Leader Chu feels that this is not much different from the result of the complete destruction of Xuanmen."

"Now does Sect Leader Chu agree with the old Palace Master's idea?" Li Chuan asked.

"Of course not," Wen Guying said, "We just need to solve the current problems first, such as finding all the demon ruins, destroying all the ferries, and finding the demon spirit and killing her. In this way, maybe Immortal Weng will not be able to replace the immortal way." They walked into the clinic, and after Wen Guying greeted several medical practitioners, he led them to a room in the back, where Wukong and Jiang Bai would temporarily live.

Li Chuan looked at the interior layout, which was very elegant. Apart from the strong smell of medicine, everything else was quite comfortable.

Wukong was sitting by the window reading a Buddhist scripture. When he saw them coming in, he stood up and went over to them. He asked Li Chuan, "Are you okay?"

"I can walk a few steps now." Li Chuan said, and then he saw Jiang Bai's hand on Wu Kong's shoulder. He said, "Brother Jiang, you are very comfortable with your current appearance."

Five fingers immediately stood up and said, "Oh no, I feel my body getting more and more numb."

"Can you feel it?" Li Chuan was curious.

"I can feel it a little." Jiang Bai said.

"Let me take a look." Li Chuan said immediately.

"Are you okay now?" Jiang Bai asked.

"Just take a look first. It's always okay to take a look." Li Chuan said cautiously.

"I'll take you to see it." Wen Guying said.

The group followed Wen Guying to the front again. This time they passed through a corridor and after walking through many doors, they finally arrived at the place where Jiang Bai's body was placed.

Jiang Bai's body has been put back together and placed in a complex formation.

"Can we go in?" Li Chuan asked Wen Guying.

"Yes." Wen Guying said, "This formation is only used to warm his body and prevent the situation from getting worse."

Li Chuan walked straight in.

He first observed the condition of the body. Apart from being a little swollen, it looked normal. However, some parts looked like they were newly grown.

He took out the butterfly spirit, concentrated his mind and entered a mysterious state.

After taking a look, he closed his eyes, then retreated out of the formation, held onto a pillar, and then slowly opened his eyes.

"What's wrong? Is it difficult to repair?" asked Brother Jiang.

"No..." Li Chuan took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress the dizziness.

"It's okay. At worst I can switch to soul cultivation. Or maybe this is not a bad idea." Jiang Bai said.

"I should be able to, but..." Li Chuan sighed and said, "Brother Jiang, how did you get your body into this state? I just took a look and it seemed like there were countless you in your body, each acting on their own. One wanted to go this way, the other wanted to go that way, talking all at once, arguing and fighting at the same time..."

"They are not very obedient, but they still listen to me," Jiang Bai said, "Then I will lie over and you can take a look."

Li Chuan quickly shook his hand and said, "Not today, I'm too dizzy, let me rest for a while."
