Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 291 Building the Foundation of Heaven and Earth

"Well"

As soon as Lü Yang circulated the Heaven-Mending True Scripture, Yun Miaoqing immediately sensed something was wrong. An indescribable warm feeling spread from her lower abdomen.

The next second, the bottleneck that had been troubling her for months—between the third and fourth levels of Qi Refining, and the early to mid-stage—was broken. Yun Miaoqing looked at herself with surprise and joy, and then looked at her sister Yun Miaozhen. Although the other sister was already at the sixth level of Qi Refining, strictly speaking, she was also in the mid-stage.

'My sister and I have reached the same level.'

In an instant, an indescribable sense of accomplishment welled up in her heart, causing Yun Miaoqing to clutch her lower abdomen, while Yun Miaozhen's expression became increasingly stiff.

'It's definitely a spirit sword embryo!'

'To fuse with such a sword embryo and stimulate it with sword energy could break through a bottleneck. If I obtained it, I should already be in the late stage of Qi Refining by now.'

Why isn't it mine?

Yun Miaozhen lowered her eyelids, quickly suppressing her negative emotions and regaining her composure: "Alright, now that we have the sword embryo, let's prepare to go back."

Yun Miaoqing was taken aback upon hearing this: "Sister, haven't you found a suitable sword blank yet?"

"I have found it."

Yun Miaozhen shook her head and said calmly, "We should go back first. This place is not within the sect, and it may be attacked by the Demonic Sect."

Upon hearing the name "Demon Sect," Yun Miaoqing's expression immediately tensed up. For an ordinary disciple like her, the reputation of the Jiangbei Giant, the Initial Saint Demon Sect, was still quite intimidating. Moreover, Jiangnan and Jiangbei had always been at odds; if not peaceful, they were at least sworn enemies.

Lü Yang paid no attention to the changes in the outside world.

At this moment, he was still examining himself: "Interesting, this is the first time I've used the art of complementarity to cultivate."

Mending the heavens means using one's own body to repair the deficiencies in the heavens, thus gaining the favor of the heavens. Naturally, this can also be mutually beneficial and complementary. At this moment, he and Yun Miaoqing have such a relationship. He uses his status as a Foundation Establishment Immortal Spirit to help Yun Miaoqing accelerate her cultivation, and nine-tenths of Yun Miaoqing's cultivation gains belong to him.

"Unfortunately, Yun Miaoqing's cultivation level is too weak."

Lu Yang shook his head. If he wanted Qi Refining to help him cultivate himself, Qi Refining would be a drop in the ocean. At the very least, he would need to be a Foundation Establishment True Person.

Even if it's just a drop in the ocean, Yun Miaozhen is actually better than Yun Miaoqing.

But Lü Yang didn't like it.

"I'm a good person, and good people naturally associate with other good people. As for the difference in talent and cultivation, it doesn't matter to me."

Moreover, in Lü Yang's view, the difference in talent between the Yun sisters was not actually that great.

At least it wasn't to the point where human effort was completely insufficient to make up for what Ancestor Tingyou had done. Yun Miaoqing actually had some talent, and her aptitude wasn't bad.

"Of course, more importantly, she has now met me!"

Lu Yang was absolutely confident that even if Yun Miaoqing improved her cultivation step by step and preserved her potential, he was confident that he could help her achieve Qi Refining Perfection within ten years.

He then began to examine himself.

As a celestial spirit, he was still nurturing himself and was essentially a wisp of celestial energy. He only needed to do a little calculation to know his origins.

"I am formed from the Qi of Geng Metal!"

Geng metal, also known as Shangzhang, holds the power of killing and destruction in heaven and earth, and governs war and warfare in the human world. In the heavens, it is wind and frost, and on earth, it is metal. It is a metal belonging to the Yang category.

"It's amazing."

Lu Yang was quite interested. As a celestial being, his Dao foundation was naturally nurtured by nature and was innately compatible with the Geng metal Qi, which was also the reason for his supernatural powers.

“The cultivation of immortals is completely opposite to that of humans.”

"Human cultivation begins with condensing one's innate destiny, then continuously collecting the Heavenly Dipper and Earthly Fiends, gathering the four innate divine abilities, and finally challenging the barrier of seeking gold."

"However, immortal spirits are different. Immortal spirits start with innate divine abilities. They must first gather four innate divine abilities before they can condense their innate divine ability. However, most immortal spirits cannot survive long enough to condense their innate divine ability. They either are born prematurely or die prematurely."

This imagery is very profound. "If I had to put it in words, it's like a ten-month pregnancy. The immortal spirit receives nourishment from heaven and earth, gathers its four innate supernatural powers, and finally awakens its destiny and leaves the mother body."

During this process, all four innate supernatural abilities were bestowed by Heaven and Earth.

If the four talents granted happen to match a certain fruit position, and one awakens their innate divine power, they can immediately begin seeking wealth and trying to occupy that fruit position.

In other words——

"These so-called immortal spirits seem to be things created by heaven and earth specifically to occupy positions of power. Could there be something wrong with that?"

Lu Yang felt a chill run down his spine as he thought about it, and suddenly shuddered.

Forget it, it's best not to delve into it further.

Thinking of this, Lü Yang quickly gathered his thoughts and turned to look at the divine power that was gathering within his body.

This is a divine power that he, as a Geng Metal Immortal Spirit, possesses by nature due to his Geng Metal Qi. It is called [Master of Weapons and Leather]. Lü Yang once saw Ye Guyue use it.

"【Master of Weapons and Leather】is formed by the Heavenly Gang 【Geng Metal】 and the Earthly Fiend 【Shen Metal】. Both are Yang metals. When they are combined, the fierceness of metal is evolved to the extreme. 【Master of Weapons and Leather】is born from this. This innate supernatural power has two uses, internal and external, which correspond to the changes of heaven and earth of Geng Metal respectively."

"When used internally in military applications, it can enhance the power of weapons."

"When applied externally, it is called 'revolution,' which signifies change. When applied, it can alter form and transform the tangible into the intangible, making it a superior method for dissolving supernatural powers and magical treasures."

Lü Yang was carefully experiencing the wonders within himself.

But at this moment.

".Um?"

Suddenly, Lü Yang opened his eyes and felt a divine sense sweep across Yun Miaoqing's body, enter his dantian, and land on him.

Fortunately, he had already protected himself with the [Tribulation Wave]. With the profound blessing of [Insight], cause and effect were hidden and heavenly secrets were not revealed. Unless a Golden Core True Monarch was present, no one could find out his background. From the outside, it was just a slightly mysterious sword embryo.

"Which Foundation Establishment cultivator is it?"

Lu Yang was initially a little alarmed, but after sensing that the other party's spiritual sense was not strong, only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, he quickly calmed down.

"It's still the beginner village where it's most satisfying to stomp on newbies!"

"Let me see who's spying on me."

Lu Yang was very satisfied. With a thought, the [Heavenly All-Encompassing Dharma Body] immediately appeared and quickly flew over following the other party's divine sense.

Meanwhile, inside the Hidden Sword Manor.

Yun Miaozhen casually dismissed Yun Miaoqing, instructing her to prepare the flying boat for returning to Sword Pavilion. Then she went to a secluded pavilion within the manor.

Inside the attic, a woman dressed in fine clothes sat by the window.

"Disciple has met Master."

Yun Miaozhen stepped forward respectfully to pay her respects. This was the greatest blessing she had ever received in her life, a result of her past life's karma—a Foundation Establishment Master!
Thanks to this, she has become the favored daughter of the Yun family, and the Yun family patriarch has placed high hopes on her. As long as she breaks through to the late stage of Qi Refining, she will immediately receive the great divine power of the Sword Pavilion. After that, advancing to the True Inheritance stage and breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage are both very promising things. Her future is bright.

"Get up."

The elegantly dressed woman raised her hand slightly, her soft voice carrying a hint of languor. Her name was Xiuxin, and she was a guest elder of the Ye family, a prominent clan in the Sword Pavilion.

"Have you thought about it?"

"Reporting to Master, this disciple has made up his mind."

Yun Miaozhen said in a deep voice, "I beg Master to use magic to connect Miaoqing's fate with mine, so that I can send her into the Demon Sect and help her achieve success in her cultivation."
