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

Chapter 87 Life Stove Upgraded to Cloud Bamboo
The leading monk [Yanshou] was killed by a sword, and the remaining 19 people were almost defeated instantly.

Immediately, nineteen rays of magical power burst out, and all kinds of strange Buddhist images appeared.

There are Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Skandas, Arhats, and the Eight Classes of Heavenly Dragons.

For a moment, Jing Qian felt that his horizons had been broadened and his knowledge had increased greatly.

[Wuchang Temple] is worthy of being the top Buddhist lineage, with rich heritage and teaching according to students' aptitude.

However, facing the shameless and black-hearted Jing Qian, these high-ranking Buddhists had no chance of winning.

No matter how much mana these monks spent or how thick the defense was.

They were all enemies killed by Jing Qian with one sword, and they didn't even deserve a name.

For a moment, scenes of the destruction of Dharma erupted one after another on this island.

Nineteen Buddhist soldiers, no one survived!

Such a horrifying scene scared the group of engineers on the opposite side to death.

They formed a battle formation around their island master, drew a dragon of gold, stone and earth, and tried their best to defend against the enemy's invasion.

But until the sun set, there was still no trace of the enemy.

"Is this the monk's enemy coming to visit?"

"You deserve it!"

"Looking at the sharp sword technique, I'm afraid it's the work of a high-level swordsman from [Chun Yang Ruins]."

The civil engineering bosses were completely unaware that just as they were on high alert, Jing Qian had already dived into the [Life Stove] of the [Earth Dragon Reef Island] and began to cast a spell on this [Blue Stove].

Qili was very dedicated and plucked off all the hair on its four legs to form a [Shadow Stove], which it successfully planted under this seventh-grade [Life Stove].

Since then, Jing Qian has been able to intercept 30% of the earth's vein vitality of the [Earth Dragon Reef Island], the foundation of the [Void Furnace] has increased again, and the output of the [White Fang Life Fire] has increased to three per month.

Only then did he quietly escape from the seal, turning into a stream of light and flashing onto the battlefield.

His appearance made the engineers nervous. For a moment, the earth was turning over, and the soil and rocks were flying everywhere. It was very lively.

Jing Qian glanced at them and ignored them. He just rummaged through the corpses of these Buddhist disciples and acquired another twenty storage treasures.

He then transformed into a beam of light and disappeared from the spot.

The civil engineering guys finally relaxed, and the atmosphere became much more lively for a while.

He was already prepared for a heavy loss when the monks from Wuchang Temple came to his door, but he didn't expect that the annoying monk would provoke such a vicious person and be killed directly. It was also his luck.

Jing Qian flew out of the [Dilong Reef Island] and landed directly on the [Hunyi]. This treasure ship was worth a fortune and became his trophy.

He just used his [Wave] magic power to gently push forward, and the seventh-grade warship slowly accelerated and sailed towards the distance.

After being promoted to [Dragon Elephant], he used [Blue Wing Life Essence] to activate [Wave], which had a stronger effect. Even though the [Hun Yi] was nearly five times larger than the Ding Yuan, he was still able to fly.

Jing Qian sat quietly on the bow, holding the ninth-grade [Yin Bone] in his left hand, and recasting the [Ghost Seal] one by one.

With his right hand, he smashed one storage treasure after another and absorbed them into [Sumeru], expanding the area of ​​[virtual world].

There are a total of thirty storage treasures, which are enough to double the volume of the [Virtual Realm] again.

Driving the [Hun Yi], his sailing speed was much slower than flying, but he took this opportunity to practice as well.

[Zhuoling Cave Heaven] will open on the fifth day of May, which is three months away at most.

This is the next major challenge he is about to face.

The next [Academy Festival Banquet] was still two and a half years away, which was enough time for him to arrive in [Yingdu] on time.

The warship rides the wind and waves, and practice improves all the time.

In just three days, he arrived at the former [Sashiki Island] again.

This big [Ming Island] was first occupied by Li Yuan's subordinates and renamed [Chanming Island]. It was then snatched away by a group of big monks and renamed [Xiangshan Island]. It can be said that it has been a bumpy journey.

Jing Qian docked the ship a hundred miles away from the island, then turned into a beam of light, flew quickly, and easily entered the area under the former [Qili Shrine].

The seal here was broken and repaired again, and it was completely unable to stop Jing Qian from entering. The long-lost [Jiao Ming Furnace] appeared before his eyes again.

Although this [Life Stove] has changed its owner several times, its status as the [Blue Stove] has not changed at all.

The two new island masters had infused a lot of possessions into the stove, which was enough to keep it burning for three hundred years, making it worthy of planting a [Shadow Stove].

No matter how much trouble is done to this [Qizhishi Island], it cannot change the fact that this place is located in [Hunzhou] and is one of the top five vitality cores, with huge value.

When Jing Qian planted his fifth [Shadow Stove], the [Void Furnace] suddenly underwent a key qualitative change.

He jumped into the [Void Realm] and saw the [Void Furnace] in the corner, with white flames rising into the sky and flashing with dazzling light.

The earth energy of the three large islands, [Hunzhou Island], [Dilongjiao Island] and [Qizhishi Island], followed the connection of [Shadow Stove] and poured madly into the [Void Furnace].

Jing Qian no longer hesitated and poured all the storage treasures he had seized into the [Virtual Realm] at once.

For a moment, space vibrated, the boundary expanded, and the virtual interface actively rose.

He observed silently and saw that a green light began to appear in the white flames. This was his own [Life Stove] evolving towards the eighth level!

The bald cat went in and out of the firelight, breathing in and out the flames, regulating the earth's energy, and making the furnace run more smoothly.

Only one last breath is left, and the [Void Furnace] will be born!
Jing Qian escaped from the [virtual world] without hesitation and returned to the [Qizhishi Island]. He turned into a stream of light and rushed to a newly built temple behind the island's pier.

Before the person arrived, the sword thread had already crossed a distance of a hundred feet and slashed towards the temple.

The fierce sword light instantly destroyed all the defensive auras covering the temple and destroyed it.

For a moment, Jing Qian seemed to have stirred up a hornet's nest, provoking ten of the furious [Dragon Elephant] Buddhist soldiers out.

Immediately afterwards, cracks in space suddenly appeared behind the neck of each Buddhist soldier, and sword threads passed through space and cut out from the cracks very cleverly.

In an instant, ten Buddha heads flew into the sky and blood gushed out, flowing all over the ground.

Jing Qian was quick-eyed and quick-handed. The silk threads stretched out from the cracks in the void, each hooked onto a storage treasure on the body of the Buddhist soldier, and then retracted.

He did not stop and went straight into the [virtual world].

The space vibrated and expanded again, and the nearly twenty cubic space volume brought by the ten ninth-grade storage treasures was completely absorbed.

Thanks to this, the promotion of [Void Furnace] finally accumulated enough Taoist power and ushered in a breakthrough.

A hazy green light burst out from the furnace. The originally raging [White Fang Life Fire] suddenly shrank ten times in size and turned into a wisp of high-spirited green flame, burning slowly.

[Void Furnace] is officially promoted to [Burning Green Stove]!
Jing Qian witnessed the breakthrough of [Life Stove] and was quite happy for a moment. For his current practice, the effect of [White Fang Life Fire] was already negligible, but [Green Wing Life Fire] was just in time.

After his Dharma image is condensed, every time he absorbs a [Green Wing Life Fire], the upper limit of his [Life Essence] will be increased by one.

At that time, he can officially start a wonderful time of becoming stronger by spending money.

He raised his hand and called Qili over. The little bald cat also followed the [Void Furnace] and completed the promotion to the eighth level together.

Its magical aura increased greatly, and its IQ also improved significantly, however, its body shape did not change, and the fur on its back had not yet fully grown, so it was still a bald kitten.

Jing Qian asked:

"How is it? After the [Life Stove] was upgraded, did any miracles appear?"

Qili closed his eyes and sensed it carefully, then said excitedly:
"Sir, your luck has exploded. A miracle has truly been born."

"Come and see!"

Qili drew out a rhythm of Dharma from the furnace, which went straight into Jingqian's mind.

As soon as his [Solution to the World] moved, he dismantled it and comprehended it: [Stomach of the Void]!
This is the [Life Stove] that carries the [Stove Spirit]. It has a chance to develop supernatural powers only after it is promoted.

With the magical [Void Stomach], the [Void Furnace] has become a source of matter and energy for the [Void World], just like a digestive organ.

From now on, Jing Qian can try to fill the materials of the real world into the [Void Furnace], burn and digest them, absorb the energy therein, and turn it into nourishment for the growth of the [Void World].

As for the current status of the eighth-grade [Burning Green Stove] of the [Void Furnace], any material containing vital energy below the ninth grade can be put into it for digestion.

He just waved his hand and moved all the junk piled up in the [Void World] to the side of the [Void Furnace], forming a mountain of garbage.

It mainly includes the personal belongings of the eminent monks of Wuchang Temple.

Jing Qian was too lazy to distinguish them one by one, so he piled them all up and ordered Qili to slowly move them into the [Void Furnace] to burn them.

He finally had a way to enhance the [Virtual Realm] and was no longer limited by the source of the storage treasures.

Qili also gained the identity of a boilerman, and the status of the second-in-command of the [Virtual Realm] rose again.

The kitten started to boil the pot without stopping, while Jing Qian escaped from the [virtual world] again and returned to the sea.

The [Hun Yi] aimed in a new direction, and the warship pierced through the green waves and sped away.

In the land of Hunzhou, there are two [Life Islands] that can light up the [Blue Stove]. Jing Qian does not intend to give up any of them and incorporates them all into his [Shadow Stove].

He must first occupy these earth veins' vital energy, allow the [Life Fire] to begin to accumulate, and continue to expand the passive income sources, only then can he go to [Yingdu] with greater peace of mind.

It’s a long journey, so you better have a stout wallet!
After another three days of traveling, the seventh-grade [Qiyue Island] appeared where the sea and sky met.

Jing Qian parked the [Hun Yi] in advance, then drove off to the island.

This [Life Island] is shaped like a crescent moon. There are purple bamboo forests on the island, which is quite magnificent, but it is small in area, sparsely populated, and has a weak presence.

However, behind [Qiyue Island] is the background of [Cihangzhai] on [Haizhou], and its background is quite strong.

As the upper continent geographically closest to [Hunzhou], the power of [Haizhou] has the strongest influence on [Hunzhou].

Although Qiyue Island has a small population, it has an extraordinary status in Hunzhou and always gets priority when there are good things happening.

But when [Impermanence Temple] extended its tentacles, everything changed fundamentally.

As a disciple of the twelve Dharma lineages in the academy, Xiang Yu served as the governor of the island. He did not care about the subordinate forces of other Dharma lineages at all, but started a fair liquidation of this [Qiyue Island].

Qiyue Island, which was confident of its strong background, naturally launched a resistance without hesitation.

When Jing Qian arrived in his escape light, the two sides had already fought each other to death!
[Wuchang Temple] Of the one hundred monks, exactly forty had been killed by Jingqian.

The remaining sixty people were already here. The battle was in full swing, and the Dragon Elephant monks could not get close at all, so they all watched from the outside.

Seven [Longevity] monks surrounded the periphery of [Qiyue Island], each of them riding a Dharma image, pouring out their own [Life Essence] magic power.

In the sky, it seemed as if seven long rivers of magic power appeared, frantically washing away the restrictions of [Qiyue Island].

A purple bamboo phantom withstood the magic power of the seven great cultivators without giving in, protecting the island beneath its body.

Jing Qian saw clearly that this purple bamboo shadow was clearly a very powerful Outer Dao Moon [Spiritual Momentum]:
[Inspiration·The fifth fruit of Yunzhu]

【Category: Outer Moon】

[Rank: Sixth Rank]

[Subjugation requirements: Bamboo phase]

[Lifespan requirement: six hours/day]

This [Lingji] possessed the sixth-grade [Fuling] cultivation level and easily blocked the seven great Buddhist masters from entering.

A middle-aged [Yanshou] monk in a white robe stood calmly and righteously under the shadows of the bamboo.

He held a jade magic sword in his hand, and with a light tap of the sword tip, rays of sword light fell like drizzle, assisting Zizhu Lingji in resisting the offensive of the Buddhist master.

This person is Sun Jue, the owner of Qiyue Island, known as "Master Yuezhu", and has quite a reputation in Hunzhou.

In fact, he is the successor of [Cihangzhai]. Although he failed to complete [Spiritual Creation and Destiny Casting], he can be regarded as one of the core disciples of the Dharma lineage.

Relying on the power of this [Spiritual Inspiration], he fought against seven people alone and crushed the seven [Yanshou] of [Impermanence Temple].

However, Sun Jue has not yet successfully suppressed the [Cloud Bamboo Fruit], and can only use the authority granted by the Dharma vein to plant the [Cloud Bamboo Fruit] on the edge of this vast sea, absorb the essence of the earth veins, and nourish the [Spiritual Energy].

Otherwise, he would not have taken these seven Buddhist [longevity] masters seriously and would have killed them all long ago.

Sun Jue already knew about the changes in [Hunzhou], but as a disciple of [Cihangzhai], he had to maintain the dignity of the sect, so he could not be easily controlled by these monks.

He has made up his mind that unless Zhizhou comes in person, he will not give in even an inch!

Jing Qian used the dimensional space to come close to the battlefield, used [World Solution] to observe the battle between several [Extended Life] masters, and carefully analyzed their weaknesses.

Among the eight people fighting, there was not a single [Lingjizi], so to him, they were not opponents of equal status.

Apart from this [Lingji] who was somewhat interesting, the others were all killed with one sword.

He did not disturb the battle between the few people, but went straight to the main island of [Qiyue Island].

All the monks on the island have been organized. Jing Qian took a look and saw that six [Dragon Elephants], with more than twenty ninth-grade [Destiny], formed a magic circle, tightly enveloping the Moon-Watching Tower where the [Destiny Stove] was located.

He walked around the small building and looked at it for a while, and found that the location of the [life stove] was not blocked, but was placed hollowed out in the main hall of Wangyue Building.

This put him in a dilemma for a moment. Even if he could break through the suppression and defense of these monks, he could not plant the [Shadow Stove] without anyone noticing.

Jing Qian's plan to seize the earth energy of [Qiyue Island] is likely to fail.

However, with so many good friends from Wuchang Temple here, it is not a wasted trip.

He quietly approached the core of the battlefield, ready to steal the chicken.

At this moment, a strange magical light inexplicably appeared in the field of vision of [World Solution].

This ray of spiritual light flashed in the sky thousands of feet above [Qiyue Island], disappearing in an instant and being inconspicuous.

If Jing Qian had not been so powerful and alert, he would not have been able to discover it.

He changed the direction of his attention, hiding in the dimension and heading straight for the sky.

The distance of ten thousand feet can be reached in an instant with the speed of [Bi'an Weiyang].

Soon, he discovered the two people hiding in the thick clouds.

No, what Jing Qian discovered were not humans, but two monsters!

Among them was a man in armor, with a pair of purple jade horns on his head, and he looked extraordinary.

The other creature was a black puppy whose neck he was strangling.

Jing Qian was greatly shocked. These were actually two powerful demons at the sixth-grade [Purple Eyes] realm!

Whether it was a human or a dog, their entire bodies were covered in a thick layer of [Purple Eye Life Essence], just like the sixth-grade creatures Jing Qian had seen before!
These two big monsters were hiding their own auras and watching the battle below.

I just heard the little black dog say:
"Brother Long, I didn't lie to you, did I?"

"There really is a sixth-grade [Spiritual Machine] here, and it's controlled by a [Longevity] cultivator. He's no match for you at all."

"I have a very good nose. I can tell where the treasure is with just a sniff!"

"We agreed that as long as I find you a [Spiritual Machine], you will let me go!"

After saying that, the little black dog struggled again, trying to break free from the man's hands.

But its strength was obviously much weaker than the man's. No matter how hard it tried, it was unable to shake the man's iron-like palm at all.

The armored man chuckled and replied:

"Don't worry!"

"Haven't I got this [Inspiration] yet?"

"Besides, since you have this ability, please sniff for me again. Is there any scent of Yanfu disciples in this land of [Hunzhou]?"

"If you just help me find that disciple of Yanfu, I will swear an oath. Not only will I let you go, but I will also give you three additional [Yangji Dragon Robe Fire Evils]."

Before he could finish his words, the little black dog struggled even harder.

It barked:
"You are a scoundrel again!"

"I was the first to find those Fire Demons, but you relied on your magical powers to seize them, and now you're giving them away as a favor."

"There are no more Yanfu disciples in this realm. I'm afraid they are just some unlucky fellows who picked up some scattered inheritances."

"Where do you want me to find someone for you?"

The armored man laughed and continued:

"Then I don't care. If you can't find it, you're not allowed to go anywhere. Follow me to the Sea of ​​​​Wrongful Souls again."

"You have a very good nose. I'm sure you can help me smell some good ghosts."

After saying that, the armored man pulled out a thin rope from his crotch and tied the puppy tightly from head to toe.

Then, he threw the puppy onto the clouds and transformed himself into a dark beam of light, rushing towards the [Cloud Bamboo Fruit].

Jing Qian saw with his own eyes that the armored man actually transformed into a black dragon in mid-air.

It turned out to be a [True Dragon] that transformed into a human form!
This is a true sixth-grade monster, and one of the strongest among the sixth-grade creatures.

With the same level of cultivation, his combat power is only inferior to [Lingjizi] of the Great Dharma Lineage and [Xuezhuzi] of the Great Demon Clan.

In the entire [Hunzhou], no one can stop this evil dragon unless Zhizhou brings the [Elephant God] in person!
The collision between it and the [Cloud Bamboo Fruit] caused a huge explosion of magical power, which blew away everything within a radius of ten miles, turning it into a white mist.

The demon dragon attacked, and with the first wave of impact, it killed five of the seven [Longevity Extension] monks on the periphery.

The casualties among the onlookers of the [Dragon Elephant] monks were even more severe, as if they had been mowed, and a large number of them fell down.

Then, the evil dragon coiled around the purple bamboo shadow and began to eat it frantically.

It has already regarded this [Spiritual Inspiration] as its own possession.

Jing Qian watched the entire battle carefully, ready to take advantage of any opportunity at any time. However, he saw that [Yun Zhu Zi Shi], without Da Xiu's control, could not exert its due power and was no match for the demon dragon.

However, the direction of the battle surprised Jing Qian. The monk Sun Jue actually gave up controlling this [Spirit Machine] and ran away.

Sun Jue brought the remaining monks from Qiyue Island and hid in the Wangyue Tower. He sealed the small building with a formation and no longer cared about the wind and rain from the outside world.

This way of responding is too passive.

At this moment, Jing Qian saw that the little black dog in the clouds suddenly began to struggle again.

It channeled its magical power into its mouth and began to frantically bite the ropes that bound it.

Not long after, it gnawed a hole in the rope and freed its head.

Then, a strange spell began to be recited rapidly from the dog's mouth.

This spell was activated by his [Purple Eye Life Essence], and a mysterious rhythm of magic spread out.

The magic rhythm did not shine on the battlefield, but went straight into the clouds and headed towards the north.

The demon dragon was completely unaware of this, as it was immersed in the pleasure of gnawing on the [Spiritual Inspiration].

The demon race relies on bloodline cultivation to have extremely strong bodies, but they are short of studying and developing Taoism.

The demon race has only a limited grasp of the advanced skill of refining [Spiritual Intelligence].

As a result, most of the sixth-grade [Purple Eyed] demons do not have suitable [Spiritual Energy] to protect their bodies.

The demon dragon has been wandering in the sea for so long, and now it is finally going to have its first [Spiritual Momentum]!
The magic power of [Cloud Bamboo Fruit] was devoured by it madly. For a moment, the demon dragon felt very proud and had a good future in mind.

But it didn't realize at all that the magic power of this [Cloud Bamboo Fruit] had never truly merged with the [Life Essence] in its body.

Although this demon dragon is powerful, it is too unsophisticated. If it had stayed in the human territory for a few more years, it would never be so reckless.

In the Cihangzhai on Zizhu Island, there is a statue of Yunzhu, which protects the sect and suppresses its luck.

This [Cloud Bamboo] is ranked fourth grade and is an authentic [Star God Spirit]!
After enduring the erosion of time, it produced twenty-seven bamboo fruits from its body, all of which were powerful [Spiritual Inspirations] of the sixth or even fifth grade.

This entire set of [Yunzhu] inspiration is the strongest trump card of [Cihangzhai].

Any knowledgeable cultivator would definitely take a detour upon seeing this [Cloud Bamboo Fruit].

Even if a great cultivator with high cultivation level saw them, at most they would just exchange skills and satisfy their desire to fight, but no one would dare to kill them.

It is rare to see a young man like the demon dragon who tries to swallow a bamboo fruit with his own mouth.

This is just a huge pit dug by the little black dog!
