Lord of Time: From a Five Elements Cultivator to a Master of All Daos

Chapter 309: The crisis ends and the situation changes

The great way must be fought for. Yu Shaoshan has won the opportunity to achieve the great way, and what he has to fight for next is time.

Break through the realm of refining emptiness at the fastest speed, take the lead among the cultivators of the same level, and continue to advance to the next Mahayana realm.

One step faster, every step faster, and eventually the gap between him and his peers widened...

At such a critical moment for cultivation, it would naturally not take much time to bring a mere junior like Wei Zhong across several domains to the territory of Tianyin Leishan.

What's more, Wei Zhong had no relationship with him, so being able to help him avoid a disaster when the six corpses attacked was a great favor.

"Senior, your words are too kind. This is a small matter that I should consider on my own. This time, I am grateful for your help. Otherwise, I would have no choice but to flee for my life, and it is still unclear whether I can survive."

After saying this, Wei Zhong took out a golden thunder bamboo from his storage bag:

"I hope you won't despise this small gift, Senior."

This golden thunder bamboo was cultivated by Wei Zhong using the "Secret Records of Soul Replenishment". It is already 70,000 years old, which is considered to be a rare high-year age among the golden thunder bamboos in Wei Zhong's collection.

"It's not a loss to use the replicable spiritual bamboo to save a sixth-level spiritual land."

Wei Zhong was not worried at all that the Void Refining cultivator in front of him would have any intention of spying on him.

After all, to such a great cultivator, a 70,000-year-old golden thunder bamboo is nothing. At most, it is a spiritual object with thunder attributes that is slightly rare.

Yu Shaoshan narrowed his eyes:
"Seventy thousand year old golden thunder bamboo, it seems that you are indeed blessed. In order to save you from having any grudges about this matter, I will accept it."

The latter calmly accepted the Golden Thunder Bamboo, which also made Wei Zhong feel relieved.

Then I heard Yu Shaoshan continue to say:
"I killed four and a half of the five corpses that the six corpses had refined, leaving only half of the protective corpse on his body. He has been severely damaged.

"Not only was the corpse you relied on the most severely damaged, but even his cultivation level has dropped to the early stage of the Void Refining Stage. If you take precautions, you should be safe."

Wei Zhong was stunned when he heard this:
"Cultivation level dropped?"

Yu Shaoshan nodded upon hearing this:

"This person is practicing the evil method of corpse refining, which is an unconventional spiritual method. His cultivation is closely related to his life's corpse refining. Although his cultivation improves rapidly, it also has great disadvantages.

"Each corpse is a part of his cultivation and life. Killing 99% of them is not much different from killing them directly."

"Then Master, how did you let the thief escape?" Le Xinghai couldn't help but ask.

Yu Shaoshan frowned:

"I originally intended to kill them, but someone rescued them along the way. Although the person's cultivation was not high, his escape method was strange, which allowed the two to escape.

"When we return this time, we will have to report this matter to the sect."

At this point, Yu Shaoshan frowned, obviously thinking of something unpleasant, which made the people present dare not ask any more questions.

……

"Okay, this matter is over. It's time for the three of us to leave.

"If I meet fellow Taoists from Tianyin Leishan in the future, I will also tell others about your existence. Perhaps one day a disciple from the sect will come to pick you up..."

After talking for a while, Yu Shaoshan also spoke and wanted to leave.

A spirit boat carried the three people away. Wei Zhong and Le Lin stood in mid-air, watching the tail smoke of magic power gradually dissipate.

Wei Zhong sighed slightly and turned to look at Le Lin beside him:

"Senior Le, why are you still staying in my Shahe Sect? Do you have something important to ask of me?"

The latter's mouth twitched. He wanted Wei Zhong to help him get rid of the corpse poison, but he couldn't bring himself to do so.

So he could only bow slightly and turn around to escape towards the Le family.

Seeing the latter leave, Wei Zhong waved his sleeves and fled to the spiritual land below.

He signaled to the disciples of Shahe Sect to remain calm, as the powerful enemy had been driven out and they could go about their daily business.

At that time, the arrival of the six corpses did cause great chaos to the Shahe Sect, but all this came to a halt after Yu Shaoshan's sudden appearance.

"Brother, when has our Shahe Sect ever had so many great masters of the Void Refining Realm visit us?"

Jiang Changyu was silent for a moment, recalling the days when his ancestors were still alive.

Although the Shahe Sect was at the top of the Lingxu level at that time, the ancestor had always been immersed in refining corpses and overcoming tribulations, and seldom dealt with the affairs of the sect.

All important matters have to rely on this pair of brothers and the elders of the sect. Although it seems glamorous on the surface, it is not a glorious life in reality.

Even when Wei Zhong ascended to the spiritual world, the two of them wanted to subdue and rob him by force.

All of this is very different from the current situation.

"The favor of the great master who is close to the Dao of Lianxu will be a great opportunity for our Shahe Sect. If we can grasp it well, it may help our sect to make further progress."

There seemed to be fire in Jiang Changyu's eyes.

Although Yu Shaoshan only valued Wei Zhong himself, from the outside world's perspective, the Shahe Sect had long been tied to this "Five-Colored Taoist" and was closely related to him.

In this situation, even if Jiang Changyu doesn't want to borrow it, it will be forced on Shahemen by external forces.

Wei Zhong returned to the spiritual land, looked at the damaged formation, sighed, took out the formation plate from the Demon Abyss Palace and rearranged the formation.

Then he projected his spiritual consciousness inside and saw a golden thunder bamboo.

"Ninety-three thousand years!"

This is the oldest spiritual bamboo among the golden thunder bamboos cultivated by Wei Zhong.

It is only seven thousand years away from being promoted to a hundred thousand years. By then, it can be used to refine a high-level magic weapon suitable for Wei Zhong to use, and it may not need to be replaced for thousands of years.

'Unfortunately, my equipment refining skills are still a little lacking.'

With Wei Zhong's level, refining fifth-level magical weapons can be said to be easy with few mistakes, and all kinds of fifth-level magical weapons of lower, middle and upper grades are easily refined.

However, he did not refine any sixth-level magic weapon.

One of the reasons is certainly that Wei Zhong has been working hard on his own cultivation for hundreds of years and has been slacking off in refining equipment.

However, due to the limitations of my own vision, it is difficult to peek into a higher level based on my own foundation.

After muttering for a while, Wei Zhong took out the sixth-level corpse knife he got from Ao Wei. This knife was a treasure of barrier, which was fused with the offensive magic sword.

Both of them are fifth level when separated, and sixth level when combined.

"Perhaps I can use this magic weapon as a reference and practice one or two sixth-level magic weapons for self-defense."

Although he has a sixth-rank corpse knife, it is incompatible with Wei Zhong's own attributes. The five elements and thunder attributes are all incompatible with this kind of evil magic weapon.

Therefore, this magic weapon did not improve Wei Zhong's own strength much.

"Refine a sixth-level magical weapon?"

Wei Zhong gradually had an idea in his mind, but after figuring out the sixth-level corpse knife, he put it aside.

Refining a magical weapon is not a one-day job. You can just set aside some time every day to figure it out. The most urgent task is to practice.

Wei Zhong turned his gaze towards the panel:
[Cultivation: Late stage of Spiritualization (seventh level, 13%)]

【Shouyuan: 2446/3000】

"The arrival of the six corpses this time is a reminder for me. I must always maintain a sufficient amount of lifespan to prepare for the use of [Time Dao Fa].

'At least among the three levels, don't stay in the first level, otherwise even if you temporarily level up, the upper limit of the triple [Time Dao Fa] will be lowered, which is not worth the loss.''Let's practice first. Now that the six corpses have been driven away by Yu Shaoshan, the Huanjian Sect seems to be abnormal, and the two major virtual refining forces near Faquan City have become less threatening to me.

'It will leave me enough time to continuously improve my cultivation.'

Thinking this in his mind, Wei Zhong had already closed the outer magic circle and returned to the state of cultivation.

In an underground cave thousands of miles away from Faquan City.

The six corpses took off the scales of corpse armor wrapped around their bodies, coughed up blood, their eyes were red, and their faces were hideous:
"Yu Shaoshan, you ruined my good deeds, how hateful!"

His mood was like a raging volcano, as if it would explode at the slightest touch.

Jin Lin and Gu Jing on the periphery couldn't help but frown when they saw this scene. The other party had maintained this state for long enough.

The two monsters even wondered if the other's brain had been damaged by the human cultivator.

Jin Lin sprayed a beam of water arrows at Liu Shi, who was unable to react in time. Only when the cool water drops fell on his body did he turn his eyes to the two people nearby.

His eyes were filled with anger, as if he was about to launch an attack.

Black corpse gas spread from the six corpses, causing the two men to frown and step back.

"Did Yu Shaoshan really damage his brain?"

There was confusion in Gu Jing's eyes.

Jin Lin shook his head:

"This man's evil practice has gotten out of control!"

Gu Jing looked carefully and found that the black corpse gas coming out of the six corpses was getting thicker and thicker, as if it had turned into black ink drops.

The smell it exuded made him instinctively feel disgusted.

"This is not corpse qi, it is clearly death qi."

"Forget it, forget it. It seems that we have rescued a useless piece of trash. We originally wanted to use him to attract Yu Shaoshan's attention, but now that the latter has left, this person is useless.

"Should we get rid of it?"

As he spoke, red flames burst out from between the two horns of Gu Jing's head, and a dangerous look spread in his eyes as he stared at the six corpses.

Jin Lin shook his head:
"This is the territory of the Five Elements Immortal Sect. We should try our best to avoid exposing ourselves and take fewer actions.

"Let this lunatic harm others."

Hearing this, Gu Jing put away his flames, and a hint of disappointment appeared in his eyes:
"Pity!"

Jin Lin took out a palm-sized mirror and shone it towards the six corpses. A cloud of black smoke appeared in the mirror. Looking closely, there was a soul struggling in it.

Looking at their faces, they were exactly the original appearances of the six corpses.

He frowned slightly:
"Confirmed, let's go. Don't let this deathly aura pollute your Dharma body."

The two monsters left together, and then the roars of six corpses were heard in the cave.

It was like an inexplicable monster born from hell. Its sharp and shrill voice made all the monsters within a hundred miles feel fear.

The subconscious thought was to run away.

Half a month later, the situation inside was finally calmed down.

A huge black hand stretched out from the cave, followed by the hideous faces of six corpses.

The difference from before was that the latter's eyes were no longer wrapped in corpse qi and were no longer turbid, but showed a hint of original divine light.

"The backlash of the technique is too severe."

After crawling out of the cave, Liu Shi looked at the black skin on his body, and a hint of pain appeared in his eyes.

This is not his original body, but a ready-made one formed by fusing a broken corpse of his own life into it in order to save his life.

Today, the six corpses have completely turned into half-human, half-corpse monsters.

Just like the ancestor of the Shahe Sect.

'Once you turn yourself into a corpse, there is no turning back. From then on, my path diverged from the path of spiritual law and I completely went astray.

"Yu Shaoshan, you ruined my practice, how despicable. And I can't let go of the five colors either."

Liu Shi clenched his teeth, and suddenly a throbbing rose from his heart. His eyes, which once revealed divine light, were once again shrouded in black aura.

Just when he was about to lose his sanity again, his right hand thrust into his own temple, and his hands were like oars that paddled the empty sea of ​​consciousness.

Temporarily dispel the corpse qi covering it.

'After the backlash, the spiritual intelligence is easily affected by the corpse qi, and you have to find a treasure land and completely complete your own corpse refining to avoid it.'

After saying that, he suddenly raised his head and looked at a spirit boat not far away.

There was a blood wolf flag hanging on it, and three or two monks were playing and fighting, with laughter coming from their mouths.

"Brother, is there really a treasure in this place?"

"Of course. This roar that can drive away monsters is not an ordinary treasure. It might be a rare blood treasure. After refining it, it can help you and me advance to the next level. From now on, we don't have to look at the boss's face anymore."

As he spoke, the man opened his clothes, and the girls nearby blushed when they saw this, as if they were attracted by the charm.

In a place that he could not perceive, a dark figure had appeared above the spirit boat.

……

At Shahe Gate, Wei Zhong took the jade slip in his hand and saw the contents. His expression changed for a few moments, and he asked Jiang Changyu in the audience:

"In other words, something really happened to Gu Shuping from the Illusion Sword Sect?"

"It's absolutely true. Whether it's the news from Feiyu Immortal City or the reaction from Huanjian Sect, it seems that this great cultivator of Lianxu has most likely met with an accident.

"It is very likely that something went wrong when I was fighting for the opportunity last time, and I was ambushed by someone else.

“There was even news from within the Illusion Sword Sect that their soul lamp was still languishing and almost extinguished.

"Under such circumstances, all the disciples are worried about their own safety. Xie Jibang has even visited our Shahe Sect many times, wanting to..."

Wei Zhong threw the jade slip down:

"Don't worry about it. After all, the Huanjian Sect is a big family with great wealth. Even though they lost Gu Shuping, they still have Wei Yuesheng. They can keep most of their wealth without any problems. It's just that some short-sighted villains will stir up unrest.

“The basic structure of the nearby cultivation world can still be guaranteed.

"Just rest and recuperate, and don't get involved unless it's necessary. Let them fight each other."

"Yes!" Jiang Changyu answered respectfully. Ever since the last raid on Guangji City, he had become more and more aware of the principle of keeping oneself out of trouble.

Wei Zhong continued to ask:
"Also, is there any news about the auction in Feiyu Immortal City?"

"Yes. In ten years, there will be a large auction jointly organized by many forces. It is said that the scale is very large, and there will be many rare spiritual objects auctioned at the auction, including the Fifth Revolution Dingyuan Pill and other items that you need."

"Ten years later? That's still in time!"

Wei Zhong glanced at the panel in the corner of his eye:

[Cultivation: Late stage of Spiritualization (seventh level, 86%)]
