Immortal weapon refiner

Chapter 1073 Whereabouts
The cultivation world of the human realm was in an uproar. A Venerable of the Integration Stage who had successfully comprehended the Law of Chaos had appeared in this world. With only the cultivation of the mid-Integration Stage, he completely suppressed the entire Yin Yang Sect.

This venerable one's Dharma name is Wuji. He is a sword cultivator and possesses a Heaven-Piercing Killing Sword. His strength is unparalleled, and it is no exaggeration to say that he is the number one person below the Mahayana stage!

This news swept across the entire human territory like a storm in the shortest time, and is even spreading rapidly to the entire Tianyuan Continent.

"This is only the mid-stage of the Integration Realm! I can't even imagine how powerful Senior Wuji would be if he cultivated to the late-stage of the Integration Realm, or even the Perfect Integration Realm?"

"Even the Dragon Subduing and Tiger Taming Celestial Venerables at their Integration Stage wouldn't be much stronger than this!"

"He suppressed the entire Yin Yang Sect single-handedly. The old sect leader even used the sect's protective formation and its treasured artifacts, yet he still suffered severe injuries."

"Without a doubt, this is the power of the Chaos Law, the supreme law among the Three Thousand Great Daos. Once one steps into this path, it is perfectly normal to have such combat power."

"If Senior Wuji can reach the Mahayana stage in the future, then our human race will have one more Heavenly Venerable with unparalleled combat power. I dare not imagine what that day will be like!"

Li Qing's fame spread far and wide, and even those powerful True Spirit families knew of his Dharma name, Wuji.

In a sense, cultivators who have comprehended the laws of chaos possess far greater potential and combat power than those with true spiritual bloodlines within them.

The first to react was the Feng family, whose bloodline was that of the Heavenly Phoenix. The head of the Feng family immediately sent two of the family's most beautiful fairies to Yin Yang City to befriend and win over the Wuji Venerable.

"Ling'er, what did I say before? That Fellow Daoist Wuji has a limitless future. If we can win him over sooner, it will be of great benefit to both the family and you." Su Yin, dressed in white, said softly.

Su Ling was still wearing a black dress. She pouted and said, "The patriarch only asked us to befriend him. He didn't really want to marry me to him. Who knew that his disciple would have the Taiyin Body? No wonder I felt that the little girl had Taiyin energy mixed in her body. It was too extraordinary. If she has the Taiyin Body, then everything makes sense."

Su Yin gently stroked the strands of hair by her ear and shook her head, saying, "You really don't know how to seize opportunities. A cultivator who has comprehended the laws of chaos is no ordinary person."

"However, the most important thing this time is to have Fellow Daoist Wuji's disciple resolve the imbalance of Yin energy in your body. Given his character, he should not refuse this task, and it would also be of great benefit to his disciple."

Upon hearing this, Su Ling's lips curled up. She had awakened the Yin Phoenix bloodline, and since embarking on the path of cultivation, she had often been troubled by the erosion of her meridians by Yin energy.

In other words, the Feng family had a deep foundation and managed to suppress the Yin Phoenix bloodline origin within her body using various spiritual objects with abundant Yang energy.

However, this approach cannot fundamentally solve the problem. Even now that she has reached the Integration Stage, she is still troubled by the problem of Yin energy eroding her meridians. After all, the power of her bloodline also grows along with her cultivation level, causing the problem of Yin energy eroding her meridians to become more and more serious every time it becomes unbalanced.

The best solution would be to find a cultivator with a certain yang constitution to engage in dual cultivation, using techniques to harmonize yin and yang energies. This would be of great benefit to her, allowing her cultivation to progress rapidly.

Currently, a person with a Yin constitution has appeared in the cultivation world. This constitution can help her directly draw out the excessive Yin energy in her bloodline, which can also solve the problem that has troubled her for many years.

"I hope so!" The thought that the problem with her bloodline was about to be resolved made her very happy.

Meanwhile, in front of the Yin-Yang Sect's mountain gate, the spiritual light of the formation had dissipated, and the defeated Yin-Yang Sect leader was ashen-faced, knowing that no matter how hard he tried, he could only put up a futile resistance.

Even with the sect's most powerful treasures and grand formations deployed, he still suffered such severe injuries. Continuing the fight would only bring annihilation upon the entire Yin-Yang Sect, and he didn't want to be the one to commit that sin.

Of course, the most crucial thing is that his body is currently covered with wounds caused by the power of chaos. This power of chaos is deeply embedded in his body like chains of order, making it impossible for these injuries to heal on their own. Even the mobilization of his magic power is severely hindered.

Li Qing sheathed the Immortal Slayer Sword, put his hands behind his back, and walked step by step toward the Yin Yang Sect's mountain gate.

Countless eyes filled with awe fell upon him, especially those of the Yin-Yang Sect disciples, whose expressions were extremely complex.

Their once-proud identity has now been shattered by the very hands of that tall, upright cultivator.

"Master!"

Li Qiyin's eyes lit up as he rushed towards Li Qing.

Li Qing didn't give her a pleasant look. He flicked her forehead with his finger, and a stream of pure spiritual energy seeped into her body.

"Ouch!" Li Qiyin clutched his forehead in pain, looked at Li Qing with pitiful eyes, and said aggrievedly, "Master, I know I was wrong."

"Next time something like this happens, remember to inform your master in advance, lest something unexpected really happens." Li Qing scolded, and then with a thought, he manipulated the wisp of spiritual power to release the restriction placed on Li Qiyin's body.

"Yes, yes, I understand, Master!" Li Qiyin nodded repeatedly.

What happened this time was indeed extremely dangerous. It was only because the Yin-Yang Cult Leader and the other two did not have any evil intentions and were all thinking about taking her as a disciple that they did not harm her; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

If someone knew some extremely insidious secret techniques that could seize the essence of some powerful cultivators, then there would be a big problem.

After completely removing the restrictions from Li Qiyin's body, Li Qing continued walking forward. He came to the Yin-Yang Master and drained all the remaining chaotic power from his body.

"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me. What I said just now was merely some angry words," Li Qing said with a light laugh.

The Yin-Yang Master stood up with a complicated expression. He sighed deeply and said in a low voice, "Fellow Daoist Wuji's methods are extraordinary. I admire him greatly."

Soon, Ziqi Daojun and Peng Tianyun also approached Li Qing with clasped hands.

"I am the former sect master of the Yuling Sect, Daoist Ziqi. Greetings, Fellow Daoist Wuji!"

"Peng family patriarch, Peng Tianyun, Brother Wuji, your strength is outstanding. You truly have the bearing of a celestial being. I admire you immensely."

Having already witnessed Li Qing's strength, these two senior figures, who hold significant positions in the cultivation world, naturally wouldn't put on any airs.

If they had underestimated Li Qing when he was only at the mid-stage of the Integration Realm, his current mid-stage Integration Realm cultivation level was now making them feel terrified.

If someone at the mid-stage of the Fusion Realm already possesses such terrifying and formidable combat power, how powerful would they be once they reach the peak of the Fusion Realm? They dared not even think about it further.

At that time, not only the Yin-Yang Sect, but even a once-powerful True Spirit Clan would be crushed by him alone! Of course, this is on the premise that the True Spirit Clan does not use its last trump card to summon the supreme True Spirit guardian family from the source of its bloodline.

Li Qing clasped his hands in a fist salute to the two of them, and said with a carefree smile, "I am Wuji, greetings to you two fellow Daoists!" "I heard that my unworthy disciple seems to have taken some treasures from several people, is that true?"

"Qiyin, hurry up and return the treasure to the seniors."

Upon hearing this, Daoist Ziqi and Peng Tianyun were slightly taken aback, and then waved their hands repeatedly, saying:
"Hahaha, no need to worry about it, it's just a few trinkets, consider it a small gift for the successor of Taiyin."

"Indeed, these are just some material possessions; consider them a token of our appreciation."

Now that things have come to this, why would they really return what they gave them? They simply couldn't bring themselves to do it.

Upon hearing this, Li Qing said sternly, "Qiyin, hurry up and thank the seniors for their rewards!"

Upon hearing this, Li Qiyin's eyes lit up, and he immediately bowed and clasped his hands in greeting, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, seniors. I am deeply grateful!"

Then, Li Qing said seriously again, "Fellow Daoist Yin Yangzi, there is actually another matter I would like to ask you when I come to visit the Yin Yang Sect!"

“Fellow Daoist Wuji, please ask. I will certainly answer to the best of my knowledge,” the Yin Yang Sect Master nodded.

Li Qing took a deep breath and said, "Speaking of which, this is something I encountered in the lower realm. Before ascending, I found a Yin-Yang Spirit Seal in the lower realm, which was marked with a spirit realm beacon that could help people ascend."

"Later, one of my junior sisters was marked with a spirit beacon and ascended to heaven due to an accident. This is what I want to inquire about!"

Upon hearing this, the group looked at Li Qing with a mixture of surprise and relief.

The nemesis before me is actually an ascendant, but upon closer inspection, it makes perfect sense that he is an ascendant.

Although ascendants in the spirit world are quite rare nowadays, legends about some ascendants still circulate frequently, and unexpectedly, one such case appeared right before their eyes.

Without a doubt, another legend related to ascended beings will emerge in the future, and it will be extremely resounding, inspiring countless younger cultivators.

The Yin-Yang Master frowned slightly. After pondering for a while, he finally spoke:

"I dare not lie, my sect has indeed set up opportunities to assist ascension in various minor realms. The purpose was to select disciples with exceptional talent. Generally speaking, such ascendants possess remarkable fortune."

"But later, with the appearance of the Holy Maiden of our Church, this path to ascension was closed, and our Church no longer accepts any ascendants from the lower realms."

"As for those ascendants who came from the lower realm, I haven't paid much attention to them. The elders have arranged for them to be in charge of this matter."

Upon hearing that the ascension passage was closed, Li Qing's heart tightened and his expression darkened slightly.

Before his ascension, he gave the Yin-Yang Spirit Seal to Wang Chan, hoping that this woman with the Dragon Roar Physique could lead some of the Lingyun Sect members to ascend to the Spirit Realm together.

"What will happen to the other ascendants who ascended using the Yin-Yang Spirit Seal after the ascension passage closes?" Li Qing asked quickly, worried about his old friends in the lower realm.

The Yin-Yang Sect Master frowned even more deeply and said, "Generally speaking, those who ascend will not be affected; they just won't ascend directly to my Yin-Yang Sect."

"The beacons of the spirit world are still effective and can guide them, but they are less protected during their ascension."

Li Qing breathed a slight sigh of relief and continued, "Wouldn't it be better to recruit some ascended individuals as disciples? Why the sudden closure? Does having a saintess with outstanding talent mean we no longer need other disciples?"

“Fellow Daoist Wuji, you are unaware of this. In recent years, my Yin Yang Sect has declined, and the cultivation resources controlled by the sect are far less than before. How can we possibly have extra resources to cultivate ascendants?”

"The resources required to maintain that path to ascension in the lower realm are enormous, so closing it is a last resort!"

Li Qing didn't press the matter further. He thought about it and concluded that Shen Ningbing's ascension must have happened much earlier. If she had successfully ascended, she would definitely be on the territory of the Yin Yang Sect.

"One last question: before closing the path to ascension, did the Yin-Yang Sect accept a woman who cultivated the Ice Path and possessed an Ice-attribute unique spiritual root? Her name was Shen Ningbing, and she was my junior sister. This is very important to me!"

At this moment, Li Qing's eyes were like torches, and his divine sense gathered in his pupils, staring intently at the Yin Yang Sect Master, with a spiritual pressure emanating from his body.

Even the Yin-Yang Sect Master, who was at the peak of the Integration Stage, felt a momentary suffocation. Li Qing, who had already cultivated the Chaos Law, was indeed putting considerable pressure on him.

“I am in seclusion within the church for many years, so I will have to ask another elder about this matter.”

"Let me think, this matter should be addressed by Elder Ding Feiyu. He should come forward and say whether there was an ascendant named Shen Ningbing in the sect in the past who possessed an ice-attribute unique spiritual root!"

Soon, a thin elder with a sallow complexion stepped forward, sweat beading on his forehead.

"Cult Leader, have you forgotten that a powerful member of the Ice Spirit Clan once visited our sect?"

"That powerful Ice Spirit Clan member took an ascendant from my sect, the female cultivator with the Ice Spirit Root. It was you who gave your approval for this."

hum!
The Yin-Yang Cult Master's head nearly exploded. He had long forgotten about this matter, but now that it was mentioned, he had a vague recollection of it.

"Fellow Daoist Wuji, your junior sister might be in the Ice Spirit Clan," the Yin Yang Sect Master said somewhat uneasily, fearing that Li Qing might have another attack.

Li Qing wasn't an unreasonable person, and he wouldn't really make things difficult for the Yin Yang Sect because of this.

"The Ice Spirit Clan, huh? Does anyone know why the Ice Spirit Clan took my junior sister away?"

"I don't know about that, but there should be no ill intent. You can rest assured about that, Fellow Daoist Wuji."

Hearing this, Li Qing's heart gradually calmed down.

The Ice Spirit Clan is a powerful race ranked sixth on the Myriad Races Dao Stele, and even the human race, which possesses the Chaos Treasure, finds it difficult to surpass them.
