Forge your destiny into a sword, slash your soul and ascend to immortality

Chapter 105 Who dares to provoke her?

Jing Qian spent a lot of effort and finally found a glimmer of hope in the impossible, and once again obtained a unique [Inspiration].

[Inspiration: Life-Locking Needle]

[Type: Seeking One's Roots]

[Rank: Eighth Grade]

[Requirement for suppression: The appearance of spiritual treasure]

【Life span burden: four hours/day】

For a moment, his cultivation made rapid progress again. His extremely abundant magic power once again gave birth to a phantom of Dharma, pushing him towards the great perfection stage of [Dragon Elephant]. It turned out to be the image of a fisherman fishing in the void.

Jing Qian casually slashed out with a sword light, completely shattering the phantom of the Dharma image.

Fishing is just a hobby. If he takes it as his main career, the room for growth is too low, so he would naturally not choose it.

Afterwards, he took out the last remaining [Zhu Ling Qi] and poured it directly into the [Life-Locking Needle].

This [Inspiration] instantly devoured the tonic and began a new round of evolution.

It took two hours for the evolution to be completed, and the [Life-Locking Needle] was also promoted to the seventh grade.

Jing Qian carefully deduced the huge changes that this [Inspiration] brought to him.

He unprecedentedly completed the four major [Spiritual Machines] to cast his destiny. Every additional [Spiritual Machine] was a moment of qualitative change in his practice.

And his [Destiny] space has reached four taels and eight cents, and he has one more [Destiny] that can be smelted before the Dharma Image!
More importantly, with this [Life-Locking Needle], he not only has a hook as a fisherman, but also a swordsman has a sword!
This is his first offensive [Inspiration], which can greatly enhance his combat power.

In this world of cultivation, magical tools such as needles, hooks, spikes, and awls can also be regarded as a unique flying sword, which is very compatible with his sword practice.

Jing Qian moved his mind, and this [Life-Locking Needle] actually drilled directly into the [Qingping Sword Box] and was nurtured by the spiritual power of the [Sword Box].

This is the truly complete usage of the "Sword Box"!
Only when there is a sword in the [Sword Box] can it be considered truly complete and perfect.

As Jing Qian's fundamental [inspiration], the [Qingping Sword Box] can accumulate vitality without limit, and with the help of the [Qingping End] destiny, it can cultivate an extremely pure fundamental sword energy.

Then, with the help of the magical [Sword Light Differentiation] that comes with the [Sword Box] itself, multiple [Qingping Sword Lights] are differentiated for daily use against enemies.

In addition to the sword light, a series of powerful magical powers such as shortening life, celebrating birthdays, suppressing evil, and sucking blood can be superimposed, with outstanding effects!
However, once there is a real sword in the [Sword Box], all the sword energy and magic mentioned above will have a real material foundation, and the power can be qualitatively improved in an all-round way!
This is the real opportunity for the cultivators of [Chun Yang Xu] to completely dominate their generation and increase their combat power dramatically!
Among the lower three grades, sacrifice and refine the [Sword Box], connect with the [Fate], increase the supernatural power, and accumulate sword energy.

When one reaches the [Fu Ling] level, one subdues a powerful flying sword, places it in a [Sword Box] for nurturing, and uses it to complete the realm advancement. This is the most orthodox way of advancement for all [Chun Yang Xu] Lingjizi.

Jing Qian had a great opportunity and he collected the box and sword at the eighth level [Dragon Elephant] realm.

At this point, he was finally qualified to get a glimpse of the elegance of those [Chun Yangzi] who slaughtered all the people ten thousand years ago.

Within the space of the life monument, the [Sword Box] has undergone a qualitative change, and the fourth-grade [Qiongqi] is used to test the sword again!
He sensed it carefully, and then cut out the first sword thread. This was the [Qingping Sword Light] that was differentiated from the fundamental sword energy. It was his simplest and most conventional means of attack, and the cost of releasing it was the lowest.

Even so, the sword light has magical powers such as shortening life, suppressing evil, sucking blood, and silencing, which can easily pierce through the magic power of [Qiongqi] and damage its skin and fur.

The magical power of this sword thread can make Jing Qian comparable to an ordinary fifth-grade [Earthly Evil] cultivator in terms of combat power, and he calls it [Skinning].

Then, he slashed out the second sword light. This sword light was blessed by the low-end version of [Ghost Devouring Technique], which devoured a large amount of the life energy of the flesh granulation. The cost of releasing it was actually many times higher.

This sword can pierce the flesh of [Qiongqi] and cause slight injuries to the flesh, which Jing Qian called [cutting flesh].

Without using the fundamental sword energy of the [Sword Box] and without blessing the spiritual flying sword, [skinning] and [cutting flesh] are the lower and upper limits of his regular output.

Then, he integrated the [Life-Locking Needle] into the [Skinning], and for the first time tried to use a physical flying sword, adding sword light, and slashed out the third sword light!

This sword light was like a meteor descending to the world, like a dragon and thunder. With one sword, it pierced a bloody hole in the body of [Qiongqi].

One sword strike can damage the internal organs and break the bones of a fourth-grade [Qiongqi]. Its power is 50% higher than [cutting flesh], and he calls it [deboning].

There is no doubt that this [Bone-Eviscerating] sword light, with the [Life-Locking Needle] and the [Skinning] sword light blessed, is a cost-effective choice that takes into account both consumption and power, and will definitely become Jing Qian's most important means of attack.

Until the end, he integrated the [Life-Locking Needle] into the [Flesh Cutting] and slashed out the fourth sword light.

This sword is the real killing sword!

The Star-Picking Qiongqi lay obediently outside the safe zone, not knowing how to resist, and could only be killed passively.

When the sword light reached its body, its powerful magic power was like melted wax, which was cut off by everything.

Then, its majestic body was cut in half and completely perished.

Vast vital energy emerged from it and merged into Jing Qian's soul, allowing him to make another breakthrough in his [Life Essence] cultivation.

This sword can completely kill the great monster [Picking Stars]. It is the strongest sword among Jing Qian's conventional means, and he calls it [Burial].

As the saying goes, peel off the star's skin, cut the star's flesh, use the magic needle and flying sword, pick out the star's bones, and bury the star's body.

After his summarization and conclusion, the four major sword techniques of [Skinning], [Flesh Cutting], [Boning] and [Burying] were completely solidified and became the four most commonly used weapons in his arsenal.

The four great sword moves have an affordable release threshold, but are very powerful, enough to deal with all combat situations in the world.

If Jing Qian wanted to increase the power further, he would have to use the fundamental sword energy, which was something he would never consider.

If there really is an enemy that cannot be killed even by [Bury], he will never fight to the death. The right answer is to just run away.

The appearance of [Life-Locking Needle] raised his attack limit to a higher level out of thin air, and also gave Jing Qian stronger ambitions!
He then activated the power of [Sumeru] again and passed through.

This time, he appeared above the [Sea of ​​Vengeful Souls], with a seventh-grade giant ghost at his feet, who was being pinned down by a [Nine-Child Heart Ghost].

He raised his hand and killed the big ghost with a [Skinning] sword light, and then wrapped the [Hell Scroll] and absorbed the big ghost.

The scroll was transformed, and the twenty-second ghost was quietly born:
【Ghost】

[Rank: Eighth Grade]

【Fate: Hair Loss (Blue)】

Jing Qian invited it onto his body and let it penetrate into his hair.

Afterwards, he once again activated the power of the destiny of [Entangled Cause and Effect] and pierced into his own [Sumeru Ghost Skin].

On the ghost skin, there was a red dot between the eyebrows, as red as blood.

This red dot is the mark of the [Sea of ​​Ghosts] that he suppressed with his magical powers.

This unique mark, which was originally impossible to deal with, was quietly pierced and then gently pushed aside by the thread of [Cause and Effect].

The causal implications contained in it penetrated Jing Qian's mind directly, and he could guess at will.

He simply touched one of the causal connections, plucking the strings of a musical instrument and playing it lightly.

Then, an existence buried deep in the [Sea of ​​​​Ghosts] was attracted by it.

Jing Qian once again quietly hid in the dimensional void, with a sword light of [Burial] in his hand, brewing and waiting to be released.

Every ray of [Bury] sword light would consume at least four of his flesh buds, which made him very distressed. In the real world, he would not use it easily.

Once it is really used, there will definitely be gains!
I saw a pitch-black hook emerging from the deep sea, chasing after him along the line of cause and effect that Jing Qian had pulled.

But this thread of cause and effect was broken right in this airspace.

The hook has lost its target and is hanging there.

Immediately afterwards, a red figure in a wedding dress emerged from the deep sea.

This exceptionally beautiful [Star Picking] ghost is the overlord of this [Sea of ​​Ghosts].

She practiced the ghost way of marriage and was best at manipulating cause and effect. The blood bead planted between Jing Qian's eyebrows was a fusion of her cause and effect thread, so that when they met last time, she was able to pierce the separation of the cave and sense Jing Qian in the other dimension.

But this time it's completely different!

Jing Qian, who possesses the [Entangled Cause and Effect], intends to give this beautiful ghost a big surprise.

He was seen hiding deep within the dimension, and slashing out with the sword light of [Burial] that had been brewing in his hand for a long time.

The direction of the sword light was along the line of cause and effect that he had carefully selected.

This line of cause and effect was entangled between the female ghost in the wedding dress and the black hook that coiled around her side like a swimming dragon.

It was hit by Jing Qian's full-strength sword and was cut in half with one blow!

And at the moment when the thread of cause and effect was broken, the ghost girl in wedding gown actually lost control of the black hook!
This female ghost in wedding dress is the only Star-Picking Being that Jing Qian can come into contact with in this world.

His original intention was to kill her with his sword to test the power of his new sword technique, and his first target was not this thread of cause and effect.

But when the female ghost actually appeared, he quietly discovered that the hook in her hand was not completely suppressed by the female ghost.
[Inspiration: A Kiss of Nightmare]

【Category: Outer Moon】

[Grade: Fourth Grade]

[Requirement for suppression: Ghost aspect]

【Life span burden: January/Day】

This [Evil Kiss] was simply clamped by the female ghost with the thread of cause and effect. The connection between them was just like Jing Qian fiddling with the [Life-Locking Needle] with the [Entanglement of Cause and Effect].

When he realized this, he suddenly changed the direction of his sword.

With one sword strike from [Burial], the thread of cause and effect was broken, and [Kiss of Evil] regained its freedom.

And the next second, a crack in the void quietly opened up, and Jing Qian, who had been prepared, released the thread of cause and effect with all his strength, which gathered into a thick rope of cause and effect, tied up the [Kiss of Evil] and left.

"And dare!"

The ghost in the wedding dress was completely stunned!

Moved by cause and effect, she came to investigate the owner of the cave who was lost last time.

Not only did he miss completely, but his most convenient hook was also taken away by someone else?
Tolerable or unbearable!
The big ghost [Picking Stars] was extremely furious, and set off an extremely vast wave of magic power in this [Sea of ​​​​Ghosts]. Countless threads of cause and effect were attracted by it and began to gather around the female ghost.

Behind each silk thread, there is a big ghost of high rank.

In an instant, thousands of ghosts gathered together and covered the sky and the sun.

Afterwards, these big ghosts calculated one by one, and all turned into ghost patterns and climbed onto the female ghost's wedding dress.

The bright red wedding dress suddenly turned pure black. The ghost girl's aura also rose to the third rank [Heaven Repairing] in a very short time!
The female ghost, whose magic power increased dramatically, used the magic power left over from years of contact with the [Kiss of Evil] to pursue the fourth-grade [Spiritual Inspiration].

Such a high-quality [Inspiration] is a rare treasure even for her. How could it be lost in such an inexplicable way?
With the help of this breath, she successfully locked onto a mysterious cave.

The female ghost was extremely angry and rushed towards the cave without any regard for anything, wishing she could smash it to pieces.

But the next second, pure [Life Fire] burned out from the cave, illuminating the endless void!

It seemed as if this cave had just awakened from darkness and was slowly lighting up.

One after another, stove fires were lit from above this cave.

Behind every stove fire is a powerful [Life Stove] that has awakened the [Stove Spirit].

Even a powerful third-grade female ghost would be unable to break through the defenses of so many [Life Stoves].

Suddenly, a frog croaked, echoing throughout the universe. It transformed into a human voice and reached the ghost girl's ears:

"Your Majesty, please calm down for a moment. My [Kitchen] has nothing to do with the [Sea of ​​Wrongful Souls]. Why have you become so angry?"

"We are just looking for a place to do some small business. We will settle the karma within the realm when we return. I [Kitchen] will not be involved in the affairs within the realm. Your Majesty, please don't make things difficult for us!"

At the same time, the flickering fires of many stoves also sent out messages, covering the ghost bride:

"Don't make it difficult!"

"Don't make it difficult!"

"Don't make it difficult!"

……

These kitchen spirits spoke at the same time, seemingly politely, but in fact they would not tolerate any refusal at all.

Many stove spirits attacked together, and even this third-grade great ghost could not withstand it. She had no choice but to retreat to the [Sea of ​​Vengeful Souls] to temporarily avoid the sharp attacks of these stove spirits.

[Sea of ​​Vengeful Souls] and [Kitchen] are both among the ten secret realms of [Yingfutu Realm]. In terms of strength and foundation, [Sea of ​​Vengeful Souls] might be more powerful.

But the [kitchen] is extremely united, and when there is a problem, this group of kitchen spirits will really come forward.

Moreover, behind most of the kitchen spirits, there is a powerful family of people, and the strength that can be leveraged is completely unpredictable.

The Ghost Bride is only one of the core ghosts in the [Sea of ​​Vengeful Souls] and does not have the authority to mobilize the power of the entire [Sea of ​​Vengeful Souls].

Therefore, she could only bite the bullet and accept the loss of a fourth-grade [Spiritual Machine].

She remembered this grudge deeply and was determined to take revenge.

The power of the third-grade mighty being collided with that of the [Kitchen Room], and gradually disappeared. The existence of the [Kitchen Room] also gradually disappeared from the world.

But inside the kitchen, there was chaos.

Jing Qian appeared here, trying his best to control the black dragon under his crotch.

This black dragon was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, running back and forth in the [kitchen room] and crashing into many stalls, causing a group of kitchen spirits to yell at it and causing a big mess.

It turned out that just after Jing Qian dragged the [Evil Kiss] back to the [Virtual Realm], Qili had already opened the door to the [Kitchen].

Without wasting a second, he forcibly pulled this fourth-grade [Spiritual Machine] into the [Kitchen].

To this end, he also spent nearly 70% of the [Life Fire] in his [Void Furnace] as expenses.

He was able to temporarily control a fourth-grade outer path moon by using the ghost bride's magic power to suppress it, which was really a fluke.

He absolutely didn't dare to take the risk of letting this [spiritual power] mess around in his [virtual world].

The best solution he could think of was to take it directly to the kitchen and sell it.

This is a fourth-grade Outer Dao Moon, a priceless treasure!

Even if it is sold at a discount, Jingqian can still make a lot of money.

Moreover, he can use the power of the [kitchen] to suppress the resistance of the [spiritual inspiration] and the ghost bride.

Everything went extremely smoothly according to his deduction.

There was only one thing that was not harmonious. Even in the [kitchen], this [Spirit] was too troublesome and Jing Qian couldn't control it at all.

In the end, it was the Golden Toad Ancestor who was in charge of the situation who took action.

The big toad squatting in the middle of the [kitchen] suddenly jumped up and pressed the black dragon transformed by [Kiss of Evil] heavily under its body.

Then, the big toad spoke:
"You are such a free boy, why are you provoking her for no reason?"

"I'm afraid she's going to hold a grudge against me right now. I don't know how she's going to get back at me."

"I'm so unlucky. Why do I have to encounter such a weird thing when I'm just watching the house?"

"Tell me, what exactly did you want to do with her [Spiritual Power] by stealing it? What are you going to do with it now?"

Jing Qian smiled slightly awkwardly and said:
"Thank you, Frog God, for helping me suppress the [Spiritual Motive]."

"I don't know the origin of that great ghost. It's just that when I was training in the Sea of ​​​​Wrongful Souls, I was unfortunately targeted by her, which is why I finally resorted to this desperate measure."

"It's useless for me to have this [Inspiration], let's see if the Frog God can be a good person and help me sell it."

The big golden toad was speechless for a moment. It was indeed a newborn calf that was not afraid of a tiger.

You stole the tigress's treasure, and not only did you not repent, you even sold it directly. You are really brutal.

However, it changed its mind and agreed to the other party's operation.

Anyway, it has already completely offended the [Sea of ​​Ghosts], so it might as well go big.

The auction of the fourth-grade [Spiritual Machine] is a rare event even in the [Kitchen Room].

As a unique market town, it can sell some rare goods, which is extremely helpful for the [Kitchen] to expand its influence.

Thinking of this, the [Life Toad] Kitchen Spirit spoke:
"Since you say so, then I will take care of this [Evil Kiss]."

"I plan to use this [Evil Kiss] as a gimmick and hold a larger-scale ceremony."

"When the time comes, I'll make sure you sell it for a good price!"

"No problem, no problem! The Frog God will take care of the arrangements!"

Jing Qian finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the [Kitchen] was planning to take over this [Evil Kiss].

This fourth-grade Outer Dao Moon was still a bit beyond his capabilities, and he was completely unable to suppress it.

Moreover, in terms of attributes, it is not very compatible with Jing Qian's practice. It would be best if he could find a way to transfer it out.

After giving the [Inspiration] to the [Life Toad], he hurriedly took his leave and hid out of the [Kitchen].

I just wanted to find a powerful friend to try out my sword skills, but I didn't expect it to cause such a big commotion.

However, rumors have already been flying around in this [kitchen]!

All the kitchen spirits were gossiping, wondering who this young fool was that was so reckless as to steal the hook from the Ghost Mother Goddess of the Sea of ​​Vengeful Souls and sell it for money.

Even in a realm dominated by humans like the [Yingfutu Realm], no one dared to provoke the Ghost Mother.

The tough guy's stupid behavior made everyone amazed.

This interesting thing, along with the spread of the gossip of the Kitchen Spirit, quickly covered most of the human world in the [Yingfutu Realm].

The matter itself was very strange, but the auction of the fourth-grade [Spiritual Inspiration] that it triggered instantly became the most lively event in the [Kitchen].

Many major forces heard the news and prepared to try to obtain the fourth-grade [Spiritual Inspiration] to increase the foundation of their sect's Dharma lineage.

This is a treasure that is powerful enough to change the fortune of the sect. It is rare and should not be missed.

But this matter has nothing to do with Jing Qian anymore. After handing it over to the [Kitchen Room], as long as he can receive a reasonable auction price, everything will be fine.

[Mingchan] attached great importance to this auction. The preparation time alone would take more than a year. Jing Qian let it go and had no intention of interfering at all.

He himself traveled through time and space and returned to [Yingdu], where he began to sort himself out and prepare for his next practice.

With the new [Inspiration] in hand, Jing Qian's combat power increased significantly. He sat in the inner house of the Fan family and started a new retreat.

The usage of the [Life-Locking Needle] needs to be carefully considered. Whether it is the improvement of swordsmanship or the acquisition of the fishhook, it will have an important impact on his subsequent practice.

He needs to further refine his practice plan, which will take some time.

At this moment, there is only about half a year left until the next round of academy banquets.

There are not many chances left for Jingqian to make a final sprint.

He had a premonition that this academy banquet would not be easy.

Now he is no longer a newbie who knows nothing. He has also fully understood the ways in which the Divine Dynasty Academy influences many spiritual lines.

Even powerful lineages like [Chun Yang Xu], [Zao Wang Dian], and [Ci Hang Zhai] were still willing to abide by the rules and regulations of the Divine Dynasty Academy and integrate themselves into the Divine Dynasty system without breaking the rules. Jing Qian finally understood the reason behind this.

It turned out that the Ying Dynasty united with many top-level sects, used the [Tiangang Tower] to monitor the world, and controlled 90% of the blessed places in the [Ying Futu Realm].

These blessed places are connected to each other, forming a layer of cave heaven membrane covering the sky above the [Yingfutu Realm].

The boundary membrane of the cave heaven protects the safety of the boundary and resists external invasion. There are also major repairmen stationed in the cave heaven who are responsible for guarding the territory.

But this also means that when a fifth-grade [Earthly Evil] cultivator within the realm wants to use his own magic power to penetrate the boundary membrane and respond to the stars in the sky, he will suddenly encounter an obstacle.

This conjunctiva increases the difficulty of advancing to [Picking Stars], and is a major event that affects the continuation of the Dharma lineage and hinders the path of cultivators!
If there is no proper solution, no one, whether it is the Ying family, the major Dharma lineages, or even the many demons with precious bloodlines, will allow this boundary membrane to exist.

In the end, the response method that many major forces worked out was this academy banquet.

Disciples of various Dharma lineages, [Spiritual Officials] of the Divine Dynasty, and genius seeds recommended by various continents all came to this sacrificial banquet and shared a portion of the [sacrificial banquet spiritual energy].

This is considered a successful signing, and there will be no obstacles in breaking through the cave boundary membrane and advancing to [Picking Stars].
