Immortal weapon refiner

Chapter 1070 Worshiping the Mountain
The news that Li Qiyin had escaped from the clutches of three powerful elders inevitably spread throughout the cave of the Taiyin Heavenly Clan.

Most importantly, these three powerful veterans at the Integration Stage each lost a precious treasure.

On that day, the three of them, Yin Yangzi and Taiyin Tianzun, were trapped in Taiyin's confinement for a full hour before they were able to escape.

Enraged, the three vented their fury by sinking the island, now free from the protection of the Yin energy, to the bottom of the river.

Of course, this matter is not over yet. The three of them are all old foxes, and they have all left marks on their respective treasures, so that they can sense each other even if they are far apart.

After casually sinking the island where the Celestial Venerable's cave was located, the three of them, as if by telepathy, once again chased after each other in the same direction.

Several days later, the cultivation world finally received definite news!

"Incredible! I heard that person was only a Nascent Soul cultivator, and he only managed to escape thanks to the arrangements left by the Taiyin Heavenly Venerable in the cave!"

"News has spread from the Yin-Yang Sect: that person not only received the inheritance of the Taiyin Heavenly Venerable, but also possesses the same physique as the Taiyin Heavenly Venerable!"

"The Taiyin Body has reappeared in the world and has even received the Daoist inheritance of the Taiyin Heavenly Venerable. Does this mean that our human race will have another Taiyin Heavenly Venerable in the future?"

"I wonder if that person can escape the pursuit of the three elders. Why doesn't the Dao Palace intervene? That person is the hope of the future human race!"

"."

Throughout the entire cultivation world of the human race, the news of the reappearance of the Taiyin Body spread like wildfire. The vast majority of rogue cultivators were secretly criticizing the three elders in the Integration stage for being shameless, actually going out together to hunt down a Nascent Soul stage cultivator.

However, the connection between the Taiyin Immortal Scripture and the Taiyin Body is so great that even other forces couldn't help but be moved by the news and sent their experts to search for it.

This matter has become the focus of the cultivation world, with cultivators constantly paying attention to its development and trends.

Related news continues to emerge, and the person being hunted has even been hailed as the successor of the Taiyin Tianzun.

"The appearance of the Purple Qi Dao Lord in Tianling City suggests that the successor of the Taiyin Heavenly Venerable once stayed in the city briefly."

"They escaped to other major cities using the teleportation star array, and Daoist Ziqi was unable to intercept them!"

Several days later, more specific news came out: the whereabouts of the successor of Taiyin Tianzun were once again discovered, but Yin Yangzi missed him and failed to capture him.

It's clear that the older generation figures who were pursuing them were extremely concerned and eager, and had no intention of letting them off the hook.

Li Qiyin, who was being chased, looked rather grim. She gritted her teeth and said with worry, "My cultivation is still too weak. Even the Taiyin Origin cannot suppress the aura imprint in those three treasures for long. Every now and then, I have to be tracked down."

"Does this mean we have no choice but to give up these three treasures? I'm so unwilling to accept it."

Li Qiyin looked unwilling. These past few days she hadn't even had a chance to catch her breath. Every time she narrowly escaped, she would be caught up again a few days later. As intelligent as she was, she naturally understood that the three treasures she had obtained had been tampered with.

"I only have enough spirit stones left to use the teleportation array once. After that, there will be no escape."

"Forget it, I can only ask my master for help. This time the trouble I've caused is too great. I don't know if my master can handle it."

As she spoke, Li Qiyin secretly fled towards the teleportation array within the city. This time, she planned to go directly to Star River City and then run back to the Refining Heaven Pavilion.

Only in this way can she truly be safe, and even the Yin Yang Sect and the Yu Ling Sect would absolutely not dare to cause trouble in the Lian Tian Pavilion.

The only problem is that the journey from Star River City to Refining Heaven Pavilion will take her at least several days, and she is only at the Nascent Soul stage. How fast can she be? Besides, the Taiyin Body is not known for its speed.

"I can only crush the jade pendant my master gave me after I get to Star River City, and then stay in the city to wait for my master to come and get me!"

And so, Li Qiyin stepped onto the teleportation star array and headed to Star River City.

hum!
The moment the teleportation aura disappeared from her body, Li Qiyin returned to her familiar Star River City. However, this time she didn't bother searching for food in the city; she directly crushed the jade pendant that Li Qing had once given her.

Click!

The jade pendant shattered, and a strange spiritual energy vanished from it. She sensed a familiar aura within it, but it quickly disappeared.

"I hope my master can sense my location and come to pick me up as soon as possible. Those old guys will probably be able to pinpoint my location soon. This time I've really gotten myself into big trouble. I'll never dare to do it again." Li Qiyin muttered to himself with a worried expression.

Meanwhile, far away in another place, Li Qing was still sitting cross-legged in a wilderness, cultivating his mind and practicing Taoism. He watched the sunrise and sunset, comprehending the ultimate principles of heaven and earth and understanding the mysteries of the Great Tao.

They are completely unaware of the series of events happening in the human cultivation world, and have no way of knowing about them.

But just as Li Qiyin crushed the jade pendant, Li Qing, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly had a flash of inspiration and then abruptly opened his eyes.

"It's that girl Li Qiyin. She crushed the jade pendant I gave her. It seems she's run into some trouble. What exactly happened?"

As he spoke, Li Qing immediately stopped comprehending the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, stood up, and continued to sense the direction from which that inexplicable aura had come.

"Could that direction lead to Star River City?"

"Damn it, I'm at least tens of thousands, even millions of miles away from Star River City, and there aren't any teleportation arrays nearby that are important cities for immortal cultivation!"

Swish!
Before he could finish speaking, Li Qing's figure vanished from the spot. He immediately used his Nascent Soul stage divine ability, "One Thought Travels a Thousand Miles," to head towards the nearest immortal city, intending to use the teleportation array to return to Star River City as quickly as possible.

This time, he no longer concealed his cultivation aura; the pressure of his mid-stage Integration Realm swept out, and could be sensed even from an extremely distant distance.

In this desolate wilderness, no living creature dared to stop him from traveling.

And so, with Li Qing traveling at full speed, he arrived at the nearest city within a radius of tens of thousands of miles in about half a day. Without saying a word, he directly boarded the teleportation star array.

In Star River City, the teleportation array within the city suddenly began to flash.

boom!
Immediately afterwards, an extremely powerful aura descended, and the entire city fell silent for a moment.

"Why is there another Nascent Soul stage expert here? Is he also after the Taiyin Body?"

"It should be so. There were three Nascent Soul stage experts who arrived just now. This senior must also be here for the successor of Taiyin."

"We're too late. The Taiyin Body has already been taken away by the old leader of the Yin-Yang Sect. Even the Peng family patriarch and the former sect leader of the Yuling Sect are a step too late."

"I wonder which faction this senior comes from. The successor of the Taiyin Heavenly Venerable is pitiful. He only has the cultivation of the Nascent Soul stage, yet he is coveted by so many seniors in the Integration stage."

"The legacy of the Celestial Venerable is deeply moving, especially the legacy left by a Celestial Venerable who once ascended to immortality."

"..." As soon as Li Qing stepped out of the teleportation array, he covered the entire Star River City with his vast divine sense.

He heard all the whispers in the city and almost instantly understood what had happened.

Li Qing took a deep breath and followed the remaining energy in the city to the place where Li Qiyin had left behind.

His eyes flickered, and his expression immediately darkened.

"So it turns out that girl's secret about her constitution has been exposed. Has the news of her Taiyin Body spread throughout the world?"

"I'm still a step too late. It turns out that what this girl said before about seeking an opportunity was true, and it's even the inheritance of the Taiyin Heavenly Venerable. She didn't even tell me about such an important matter beforehand."

In fact, Li Qing no longer needs to keep Li Qiyin's physique a secret. Even if it spreads throughout the world, it doesn't matter. With his current cultivation level, there is absolutely no problem in protecting his personal disciple as he grows up.

Before long, he learned from the whispers of the cultivators in the city that Li Qiyin had been taken away by the old leader of the Yin-Yang Sect and should not be in any immediate danger.

He withdrew his divine sense, then took a step forward and arrived once again at the teleportation array within Star River City.

This time, his target was Yin Yang City, which was the territory of the Yin Yang Sect.

"I originally planned to visit the Yin-Yang Sect again in the later stages of the fusion process, but it seems this trip will have to be brought forward."

And so, Li Qing traveled from Xinghe City directly to Yin Yang City.

This city is divided by the two energies of Yin and Yang, and the whole city is permeated with a unique Taoist charm, where Yin and Yang blend together, yet remain separate.

Yin Yang City is not large in scale, even smaller than Star River City. There are not many cultivators coming and going on weekdays. After all, it is a city managed by the Yin Yang Sect. There are few opportunities for independent cultivators here, unless they are cultivators who intend to join the Yin Yang Sect.

As the Yin-Yang Sect has declined in recent years, fewer and fewer cultivators have remained in this immortal city.

A cultivator at the Integration Stage like Li Qing rarely visits this city, unless it's a special day within the Yin Yang Sect.

Of course, although the Yin-Yang Sect is no longer as powerful as it once was, it is still a force to be reckoned with, far surpassing ordinary powers.

Within this lineage that specializes in Yin-Yang Daoist arts, there are quite a few experts at the Integration Stage, and each generation of the sect's holy sons and daughters are quite amazing. Even if they cannot compare to the True Spirit Clan, they are still renowned figures in the cultivation world.

Today, Li Qing is about to challenge this renowned lineage that is famous throughout the entire human realm.

At this time, within the Yin-Yang Sect.

Yin Yangzi, who had just brought Li Qiyin to the sect, was not happy at all. It was not because of anything else, but because Peng Tianyun and Ziqi Daojun had also come with him.

"Yin Yangzi, that's a bit unfair of you. We discovered the Taiyin Body together, but what do you mean by taking her away alone?" Zi Qi Daojun asked slowly.

Peng Tianyun, with his hands behind his back, nodded and said, "Besides, we've already given that little girl a gift for accepting her as a disciple. Now everyone outside is laughing at us for losing both our wife and our army. Although I don't care about this reputation, we can't really go back empty-handed, can we?"

The old leader of the Yin-Yang Sect frowned deeply. These two people represented the Yu Ling Sect and the Zhen Ling Family, respectively. The Yin-Yang Sect really couldn't afford to offend them.

However, the Taiyin Body is the hope for the future prosperity of the Yin-Yang Sect, and he would never relinquish it.

“Fellow Daoists, there is only one Taiyin Body. No matter which of the three of us succeeds, I'm afraid this matter will be difficult to resolve peacefully. We can't possibly divide her into three parts, can we?”

"How about this?"

“I will return all the treasures you two previously offered. Furthermore, after she becomes my disciple, I will make a complete copy of the Taiyin Tianzun’s legacy and give it to you both. In return, the Yin Yang Sect and I will owe you both a favor.”

This is truly a huge investment; they even extended favors to everyone in the Yin-Yang Sect, which shows how much this old sect leader values ​​the Taiyin Body.

These words touched Ziqi Daojun. To be honest, he didn't really expect to take a Taiyin Body as a disciple. His real purpose was actually for Taiyin Tianzun's cultivation method and inheritance.

However, the head of the Peng family was not very satisfied with this. He shook his head and said, "I am not very interested in what you said. How about this, you release that Taiyin body and ask her who she is willing to take as her master. If she chooses me, let me take her away. If she does not choose, then do as you said before."

The Yin-Yang Master remained silent for a while, then nodded and said, "Alright, but this woman is extremely stubborn, and I'm afraid she may not be willing to become your or my disciple. I also intend to use time to influence her."

With a wave of his hand, he released Li Qiyin, who had been under a restriction. She was tearful and unable to say a word.

With a flick of the Yin-Yang Master's finger, Li Qiyin finally spoke, crying, "Three seniors, please spare my life! It was all my fault before. I'll return all the treasures to you. I'll never dare to do it again."

The three of them were amused by her words and shook their heads, not really taking what had happened in the Taiyin Tianzun's cave earlier to heart.

But since they're so afraid of dying, it's quite easy for them.

“It’s not impossible to spare your life. You can choose any one of the three of us to become your disciple, and then you can live,” Peng Tianyun said leisurely.

Li Qiyin pouted and said, "But I already have a master, so how can I become a disciple of someone else? Why don't you seniors just let me go?"

"You've been chased by us for so many days and your master hasn't shown up to save you. What use is a master like that?" The Yin-Yang Sect Master shook his head and said. He thought that Li Qiyin's master was probably only at the Refinement Void stage at most, and had no status or resources in the cultivation world.

Otherwise, with Li Qiyin's talent, how could he have only just reached the Nascent Soul stage at this age?
You must know that she has a Yin constitution. Once she cultivates a suitable technique, her cultivation will progress by leaps and bounds. Even without elixirs, as long as she is on a high-level spiritual vein, her cultivation will not be so slow.

What he didn't know was that Li Qing usually let his disciple grow up freely and rarely supervised her cultivation.

"Perhaps my master has been delayed by something? Seniors, please don't force us to do this," Li Qiyin said with some difficulty.

Ziqi Daojun chuckled and said, "Hehe, why don't you tell me your master's name and ask him if he wants to compete with us for disciples? Maybe he will take the initiative to expel you from the sect?"

To be honest, given their strength and status in the cultivation world, there are very few people who dare to compete with them for disciples.

As long as their names are publicized, countless cultivators will flock to them to become their disciples.

"Of course not, seniors. Don't worry, my master will never expel me from the sect. I'm just a bit gluttonous these days," Li Qiyin continued, changing the subject.

But Peng Tianyun was getting impatient: "Stop talking nonsense, your master is unlikely to come."

But in the next moment, outside the Yin Yang Sect, an extremely powerful aura rose up, followed by a hearty voice that shook the entire Yin Yang Sect's mountain gate.

"Where is the Yin-Yang Master? I, Wuji, have come to pay my respects."
