The Weird Way of Immortality: My Taoism Progress in One Day a Year

Chapter 263 The dust has settled
"Luoxia Sect's Bai Yu came to provoke us, followed by Patriarch Mo, and wanted to attack our Qingya Sect, but now he has been destroyed by Li Yan."

Patriarch Qingya said to the elders.

He looked at Li Yan, who was indifferent in mid-air, with shocked eyes, his expression was full of complexity.

Although he thought that with Li Yan's talent, his future achievements in the Taiyi Sword World would definitely be extraordinary.

But no one expected that in just half a year, Li Yan had grown to such a terrifying level.

A great cultivator in the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm couldn't even withstand a single blow from Li Yan!
Before his Nascent Soul was injured, he was only in the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation.

In other words, even if he was in his prime, he would have suffered the same fate as Patriarch Mo when facing Li Yan.

"what?"

The Jindan elders of Qingya Sect were stunned when they heard this.

They followed the gaze of Patriarch Qingya and discovered it.

The young monk below was handling the storage bag and exuding a powerful aura.

It was the Qi training disciple who had been widely rumored in Qingya Sect, fought over by several Jindan elders such as Wei Xu and Yan Jing, and was later accepted as a disciple by the founder.

Li Yan activated his spiritual power to unlock the restrictions hidden in the storage bag left by Patriarch Mo.

As a storage bag of a great monk who has reached the state of Divine Transformation, it contains a wealth of treasures.

Not only are there elixirs that can improve one's cultivation level, there are also magic flying swords, elixirs, immortal roots, rare treasures and iron, magic spells and sword techniques, and so on.

Moreover, the treasures that the Divine Transformation Monk can store in his storage bag are naturally not ordinary items and are of high quality.

But what Li Yan was most looking forward to was a fifth-grade sword technique in the storage bag, called the Xuanji Fenguang Sword Technique.

"With this fifth-grade sword technique, it seems that I can practice peacefully for a while while I am still in Qingya Sect."

Li Yan was very satisfied.

He had no need for the other miscellaneous items in the storage bag.

Only the Xuanji Fenguang Sword Technique made him most satisfied.

With this fifth-grade sword technique, after entering the Spirit Transformation Stage, he will be able to cultivate to the fifth level of the sword art. The sword light will be differentiated and can greatly enhance his strength.

Li Yan put away the Xuanji Fenguang Sword Technique, then bowed to the Qingya Patriarch and said, "Ancestor, if there is nothing else, I will go back to practice first."

Upon hearing this, Patriarch Qingya nodded slightly and immediately replied: "You can go back and practice, I will take care of this."

Although he had a lot of questions he wanted to ask Li Yan, looking at Li Yan's expression, it was obvious that he didn't intend to say them out.

In that case, he naturally would not force Li Yan.

For him, it was enough that Li Yan still recognized him as his master.

Li Yan nodded, and used his true energy to stimulate his spiritual energy, lifting Patriarch Mo's storage bag to Patriarch Qingya's side.

"This is that person's storage bag. There are some spiritual medicines in it. Maybe they can be of some help to the master. Please accept them."

Li Yan had already taken the fifth-grade sword technique from the storage bag. The other items were of no use to him, so he simply threw them all to Patriarch Qingya.

With his current realm, he could also see that Patriarch Qingya seemed to have some injuries on his body.

The medicinal herbs and spiritual materials in the storage bag might be able to provide some relief.

Patriarch Qingya's body was shaken, and he was overjoyed. He took the storage bag and nodded slightly.

Li Yan glanced and saw the Jindan elders of Qingya Sect, who were now looking at him with shocked expressions.

He nodded slightly to these people, then retreated into the small house in the bamboo forest below.

Shortly after.

A vortex of spiritual energy then emerged above the small residence in the bamboo forest.

Now anyone can see that there are no rare treasures hidden in the small residence in the bamboo forest.

Rather, it was the spiritual energy vortex formed by the spiritual energy drawn by Li Yan's practice.

"From this perspective, Li Yan should be close to reaching the Spiritual Transformation Stage."

"Even if it is the reincarnation of a great master, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to cultivate at such a terrifying speed!"

Patriarch Qingya took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

He had been shocked to the point of being numb by the strength displayed by Li Yan.

Even in the most fertile Central Continent, he had never seen a spirit with such an exaggerated cultivation speed.

The Jindan cultivators from various sects saw Li Yan fall down below and escape into a small residence in the bamboo forest, where he disappeared without a trace.

The heart that had been hanging in the air finally settled down, and the panic on his face eased a little.

In front of a strong man who could easily kill Ancestor Mo, they didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that Li Yan would be like Ancestor Mo and would kill them at will.

For a cultivator of this level.

Killing them is easier than crushing an ant.

The Qingya Patriarch looked at the Jindan cultivators calmly and said, "Since you are here to escort our disciples to the Qingya Sect to attend the Immortal Sect Conference, you should continue to stay in our sect and leave after the Immortal Sect Conference is over."

"Besides that, I want you to swear an oath to the heavens not to let anyone else hear what happened today."

Patriarch Qingya also saw that Li Yan wanted to concentrate on his cultivation right now and didn't want to be disturbed by others, so he simply blocked the news.

"Junior understands. Before the Immortal Sect Conference is over, we will definitely not take a single step out of the Qingya Sect!"

The Jindan cultivators from various sects who can cultivate to this level are naturally not stupid people.

They all understood what he meant, and bowed to the Qingya Patriarch in response. Then they all swore to the Heavenly Dao that they would keep today's events to themselves and not let anyone else know.

After seeing everyone swearing, Patriarch Qingya nodded slightly.

These Jindan cultivators from various sects breathed a sigh of relief, bowed, and hurriedly turned around to leave the back mountain of Qingya Sect and headed towards the Immortal Gate Conference.

After the Jindan cultivators from various sects left, Patriarch Qingya faced all the elders of Qingya Sect and explained in detail everything that had just happened.

Even though I knew the general situation early on.

But when they heard from Patriarch Qingya that Patriarch Mo of Luoxia Sect was killed by Li Yan's sword, they were still shocked again.

"No wonder the Jindan cultivators from various sects are so afraid, Li Yan's strength is really too terrifying!"

"Didn't Li Yan enter the stage of Qi training perfection more than half a year ago? Why did he advance to the Nascent Soul stage so quickly, and have such terrifying strength?"

All the elders of Qingya Sect found it unbelievable.

Being able to enter the Nascent Soul stage so quickly is already incredible.

What's more, Li Yan, with the realm of Nascent Soul, killed Ancestor Mo, who was in the middle stage of Spirit Transformation, with one sword.

Either of these two things is quite terrifying.

What's more, now it appears on one person at the same time.

The Qingya Patriarch said: "From now on, Li Yan will be the core secret of our Qingya Sect."

“If any of the Sword Sect’s immortal sect cultivators ask about what happened today, just say that Bai Yu was plotting against my Qingya Sect and that I killed him. As for Patriarch Mo, just treat him as if he had never been to my Qingya Sect.”

An elder of the Qingya Sect asked in confusion: "But with this explanation, even if we can conceal it from the Sword Sect, will the people of the Luoxia Sect believe it?"

"They had ill intentions to begin with, and they must have known that their ancestor Mo had followed Bai Yu to Qingya Sect."

"Moreover, Luoxia Sect must have the life lamp of Patriarch Mo, and must know the news about Patriarch Mo. How could they believe this statement?"

Patriarch Qingya snorted coldly, and a hint of darkness appeared in his eyes.

"So what if they don't believe me? Even the ancestor Huashen died in my Qingya Sect. Do they dare to attack us?" Once the ancestor Mo died, Li Yan could stop the cultivators in the Luoxia Sect by himself without even having to take action.

Moreover, Luoxia Sect originally was able to bully others in Ziling Province because of the existence of Patriarch Mo, a divine cultivator, and the various sects did not dare to resist.

Now that the only incarnation cultivator, Ancestor Mo, has passed away, they will probably just try their best to conceal the news of Ancestor Mo's death.

But this news is destined to be kept secret.

Although Patriarch Qingya had just asked the Jindan cultivators of each sect to swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao, not to disclose what happened today.

Although these people could not directly say that Ancestor Mo was killed by Li Yan, they had no problem spreading the news of Ancestor Mo's death.

What happens next will give Luoxia Sect a headache.

Even if the matter becomes a big deal in the end, it might attract the Sword Sect to come and question them.

However, these disciples from the Sword Sect would definitely not offend a high-level sword cultivator with a bright future for the sake of the Luoxia Sect.

"Disciple understands!"

All the elders echoed.

Now that there was nothing to do in the back mountain, they did not stay any longer. After bidding farewell to Patriarch Qingya, they returned to the sect.

After the elders left, Patriarch Qingya looked at the small house in the bamboo forest below and fell into deep thought again.

"In that divine sword vision, the phantoms of four divine swords appeared. Does this mean that Li Yan is the reincarnation of Shuo Mingxi, the Holy Emperor of the Human Race in the Taiyi Sword Realm?"

Patriarch Qingya was thinking in his heart.

The reason why he was so suspicious was because of the news that the phantoms of the Four Divine Swords had appeared in the world.

There is another thing, that is, to practice the Taiyi Sword Classic and enter the Jindan stage, one needs his natal flying sword.

However, Li Yan did not seem to have the materials for his own flying sword, but he had already entered the Nascent Soul stage.

This means that he probably got a suitable flying sword for his destiny at some unknown time.

And it is most likely the Four-Directional Divine Sword that had disappeared for a long time and was once controlled by Shuo Mingxi.

The Four Directions Divine Swords disappeared and fell along with Shuo Mingxi.

If Li Yan could obtain the Four Directions Divine Sword as his natal flying sword, then it would be reasonable for him to guess that Li Yan was the reincarnation of Shuo Mingxi.

"If this is true, then Li Yan's future achievements may be higher than I expected."

"There is even hope of transcending the Hedao realm and becoming a Mahayana Sword Immortal!"

When Patriarch Qingya thought of this, his eyes became hot and his heart was filled with excitement.

If he could really teach a great swordsman, he would have no regrets even if he died!

In the entire Taiyi Sword World, Mahayana Sword Immortals are like mysterious dragons that are rarely seen.

Although Patriarch Qingya had spent a considerable amount of time in Zhongzhou, he had only heard that Zhongzhou's Daluo Sword Sect and the Taiyi Dynasty had just produced powerful people who had entered the Mahayana realm.

The Mahayana realm is the realm of the supremely powerful.

Once you reach this level, there is no further advancement.

Patriarch Qingya slowly calmed down, turned around, and turned into a flying rainbow, entering his own cave.

……

The Qingya Sect's Immortal Gate Conference was held as scheduled. After receiving the order from the Qingya Patriarch, the Jindan elders of each sect rushed to the conference, took their seats, and sat upright.

Now, they all knew how powerful the Qingya Sect was, and they smiled at Chen Yuanying, the Sect Master who presided over the Immortal Sect Conference, and even tried to please him.

Even when he met the foundation-building elders and Qi-cultivating disciples of Qingya Sect, he was always friendly.

This actually made the foundation-building elders and Qi-cultivating disciples of Qingya Sect feel flattered. They thought that all the Jindan elders of various sects in Ziling Province were so good-tempered.

Only Chen Yuanying had a thought in his mind and had a guess.

Because he had to preside over the Immortal Sect Conference, even though there was movement in the back mountain just now, he still did not leave this place and enter the back mountain.

So I didn’t know what happened in the back mountain.

But seeing that the Jindan elders from various sects, who had been coming with such aggressive momentum, suddenly became so considerate, and that Bai Yu from Luoxia Sect had disappeared.

He immediately understood that it must be the ancestor who took action and killed Bai Yu, which was why the Jindan elders of various sects were so harmonious with Qingya Sect.

"No! If that were true, then the Jindan elders from each sect would have already fled and reported the news to Luoxia Sect's Mo Patriarch. Why would they stay here and watch the Immortal Sect Conference?"

When Chen Yuanying thought of this, he immediately realized that he had guessed wrong.

Just at this time, Wei Xu and his group also turned back from the back mountain.

The expressions on their faces were different, but they were all extremely peaceful, with a hint of relief and joy in their eyes.

Several Jindan elders flew to the Xianmen Conference and accompanied Chen Yuanying to preside over the conference.

Chen Yuanying also took the opportunity to ask about the situation in the back mountain.

As Chen Yuanying was the leader of Qingya Sect, these elders naturally would not hide anything from him and immediately transmitted the whole story to Chen Yuanying.

Only then did Chen Yuanying understand why these Jindan cultivators from various sects were so honest.

It turned out that there was such a powerful cultivator with terrifying strength in their sect.

“Li Yan…”

Chen Yuanying's eyes were full of amazement.

When he asked Patriarch Qingya before, he also wanted Li Yan to participate in this Immortal Gate Conference.

Later, after learning that Li Yan had entered the foundation-building stage, he gave up this idea.

But now I suddenly heard that Li Yan had entered the Nascent Soul stage.

He even crossed levels and killed the old ancestor Mo who was in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm. This was truly too shocking.

"With such a disciple in my Qingya Sect, he will surely soar to great heights in the future!"

Chen Yuanying was extremely happy.

According to Li Yan's talent for progress, in the future, not to mention breaking through to the realm of transformation of the spirit and refining the void, he might even be able to get a glimpse of the realm of unity with the Tao.

When his sword skills are perfected and he becomes famous, Qingya Sect will have the opportunity to become one of the top sword sects.

This is a great and happy event that brings honor to our family!

And judging from Li Yan's progress in cultivation, this time should not be too long.

Chen Yuanying suppressed his joy and began to preside over the Immortal Gate Conference.

Although the Immortal Sect Conference is just a showdown between the Qi-cultivating disciples from various sects.

However, as the foundation of a sect, Qi-cultivating disciples represent the future potential of a sect.

Therefore, victory in the Immortal Sect Conference will attract many talented disciples to join the victorious sect.

Originally, Chen Yuanying was determined to win the championship because of the divine sword vision that descended on Qingya Sect twice.

But now I feel that no matter what the outcome is, it doesn’t matter.

When Li Yan is born, the appeal of a top-notch swordsman will be many times more resounding than the title of the leader of any immortal sect conference.

By that time, Qingya Sect will move out of Jiuhua Prefecture and become the sword-fighting sect in Beizhou that countless talented practitioners yearn for.
