Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet.

Chapter 154 Yuanming Sect!
Just as the body of the Three Corpses Old Man turned into ashes, a black shadow flew out from it.

Even if the sword light that Gu Yuan used passed through the black shadow, it only caused a slight fluctuation and could not be stopped at all.

With Gu Yuan's current swordsmanship, he can kill living creatures, tangible objects such as metal, stone, and grass, as well as intangible objects such as souls, resentful ghosts, and thoughts.

However, this black shadow seemed to contain some unfathomable mystery. The sword light infused with Gu Yuan's true energy and sword intent fell on this black shadow, but could not hurt it at all.

"Boy, you are very good... I admire you even more. If I can cultivate you into an avatar through sacrifice, I can also have another sword-cultivating god and devil."

The black shadow transformed into a human figure, and a somewhat strange voice came out:

"As for now, you'd better not waste your energy. With your swordsmanship, you can cut down celestial beings, but the essence of this old man's secret magic spirit separation is even higher than that of an ordinary Jindan great cultivator."

"Your sword can't even cut through this fragment of my spirit! Now, just let me devour you!"

Before the voice fell, the black shadow gathered its body and pounced, intending to attach itself to Gu Yuan's body, seize his foundation, and refine Gu Yuan into a demonic clone.

Gu Yuan snorted coldly: "Humph, dream on!"

Zheng——

He put two fingers together and swept across the sword. The silver dragon in his palm began to buzz loudly, and the sword sounded like a dragon's roar, trembling and resounding through the sky!
Gu Yuan knew very well that with his own swordsmanship, he could not do anything to the old demon's distraction.

Unless he is promoted to the Heavenly Man Realm and cultivates the "Yujing Xuanshu Sword Art" to a small degree of success, or cultivates the top-level magical power "Taixu Yingyue Sword Art", he will have a chance to compete.

Therefore, Gu Yuan made a prompt decision and used his own sword intent to stimulate the instinct of the Silver Dragon Sword, arousing the innate murderous intent of this top-grade magic weapon, and using the superb nature of this flying sword to resist the opponent.

boom!
The old man Sanshi was forced back by the sword light, but he just sneered and rushed forward again.

"It's useless. You can resist it once, but can you resist it a hundred times, a thousand times, or ten thousand times?"

Clang!
At this time, accompanied by the sound of clanging swords that resounded in all directions, a sword light as bright as the sun fell from the sky and nailed the black shadow to the ground.

This black shadow is tangible but intangible. It can be transformed into a ball of tangible but intangible black gas, or it can be transformed into an illusory shadow that is difficult to be harmed by magic weapons.

But no matter how the black shadow changed, or how many magical powers it used, it could not escape the sword light and was firmly pinned by it!
"Sanshi, you are a seasoned cultivator on the verge of becoming a Yin God, yet you actually have the nerve to bully a junior who is not even a celestial being. You are truly a nobody..."

A faint voice came from behind Gu Yuan.

"Master He Ling?!"

The shadow calmed down and recognized the person.

"Master!"

Gu Yuan took a step back and bowed.

Zhenren He Ling walked slowly over, his eyes stern as he stared coldly at the old man with three corpses lying on the ground.

"I am a demon cultivator. Demons do whatever they want without restraint. Why would I care about this empty reputation? Moreover, this kid has a strong and pure foundation. He must be excellent material for training gods and demons. Who wouldn't be tempted?"

The voice of the old man who was nailed to the ground was still calm:
"But you, He Ling kid, you went to great lengths to take Gu Yuan as your disciple, clearly hoping to use him to further the sect's lineage. Aren't you sword cultivators all straightforward, concentrating on the sword path, oblivious to the world outside? Why can't you see past these trivial matters of honor and disgrace? Why are you still troubled by these filthy intrigues?"

"Even the Buddha has the wrath of diamond, and the immortals in heaven have the seven emotions, let alone a mere ordinary cultivator like me." He Ling Zhenren looked calm and unconcerned. Instead, he questioned:

"Stop talking nonsense! Fellow Daoist Sanshi, why don't you stay in the Yuanming Sect and come to Qinzhou? Don't tell me you're planning to enter the Red Dragon Palace. The Red Dragon Taoist also has another name, the Demon Subduing Immortal, and he hates evil with a vengeance. If you demon cultivators enter, you'll be courting death!"

"Although your cultivation is profound, you are still far inferior to the Red Dragon Taoist. It would be fine if you sent your clone, but you even sent your real body in person. Could it be..."

The old man Sanshi laughed strangely, "Others may not know why I came to Qinzhou, but don't you at Yaowang Mountain know?"

"Back then, my Yuanming Sect was feared throughout the world, occupying three of the six states of Southern Xinjiang: Qin, Liu, and Feng. However, because of the dominance of your righteous ways, you sent forth several great masters of the Yuanshen spirit to subdue demons and monsters. This caused our sect to suffer heavy losses, forcing us to flee overseas and establish roots in the wild lands lacking spiritual energy."

"Yet you, Yaowang Mountain, Xinghe Sword Sect, and Gushen Sect, have occupied this vast and fertile land of the Three States. Utilizing the various high-quality spiritual medicines, spiritual materials, and talented people produced in the Three States, you have developed rapidly and brought glory to your families."

The old man with three corpses chuckled coldly, and his calm laughter made people's hair stand on end:

"Now, the ancestors of your three families have ascended to heaven, or passed away in meditation. Although your power is great, you no longer have any Yuanshen masters. On the contrary, my Yuanming Sect has given birth to a Yuanshen Heavenly Demon. Isn't this a godsend?"

"This time, I came here naturally to reclaim what my sect once lost. This wonderful land of the three states, no, I should say the wonderful land of the six states in southern Xinjiang, should all belong to my Yuanming Sect again."

"I'm ashamed that this younger generation disciple is incompetent... unable to attain the Dao of the Primordial Spirit."

He Ling Zhenren sighed, but soon showed a sarcastic look on his face: "Although your Yuanming Sect is powerful, there are countless masters in the six states of Southern Xinjiang, including many Yuanshen masters, and even those two places..."

"No matter how powerful your Yuanming Sect is, how big a storm can it stir up?"

Gu Yuan, who was standing aside, was slightly moved by what he heard.

It turns out that the three states occupied by Yaowang Mountain, Xinghe Sword Sect and even the Gushen Sect were actually snatched from the Yuanming Sect.

Moreover, the Yuanming Sect actually gave birth to a Yuanshen Heavenly Demon, and it also intended to invade the six states of Southern Xinjiang.

Some of the information vaguely revealed in Master He Ling's words also shocked him.

How could he have known these secrets of the cultivation world in the past?
"so what?"

The old man Sanshi said indifferently:
"At this level of the Yuanshen, whether immortals, Buddhas, demons or monsters, they rarely appear in the world. Moreover, our Yuanming Sect has never considered triggering a great catastrophe of the demonic path, nor will we send out the Yuanshen Heavenly Demons. We are merely trying to reclaim what was once our sect's. So, who has any reason to stop our Yuanming Sect?"

Master He Ling's expression suddenly turned ugly.

Because what the other party said was right, all the masters at the soul level have a tacit understanding, no matter whether they are immortals or demons, they will not take action easily.

Most people who practice cultivation are selfish and egocentric.

Therefore, when the Yuanming Sect planned to take over the three states, as long as Yuanshen Tianmo did not get involved, as long as other things were not involved, and as long as it did not go too far, no one would interfere in this thankless task.

At most, they can make a few righteous condemnations verbally.

Anyway, the unlucky ones are Yaowang Mountain, Xinghe Sword Sect, and Gushen Sect, not me...

Therefore, if the Yuanming Sect really plots to take over the three states, it will definitely not be a good thing for Yaowang Mountain!
