From martial arts sects to immortality sects

Chapter 19 Physical Transformation, Third Level of the Nourishing Essence Realm
Qingxiao Sect was attacked by the Seven Mountains Alliance, and Jiang Zhaoxia and Li Sifeng were seriously injured!

The news was like a bombshell dropped on Qingxiao Sect, startling all the disciples who gathered in the courtyard. They discussed the previous battle down the mountain, keeping their voices low so as not to disturb those inside.

inside the house.

Li Sifeng lay on the bed, with Jiang Zhaoxia sitting cross-legged at his feet. Li Qingqiu stood by the bed, performing the Rejuvenating Ghost Immortal Needle on Li Sifeng.

He got a set of needles from the tailor; they weren't real medicine needles, but they were still somewhat useful.

Li Sifeng's condition is not optimistic. He has multiple rib fractures, facial disfigurement, and several teeth knocked out. He is currently in a coma.

Fortunately, he was not disabled; Li Qingqiu's Rejuvenating Ghostly Needle could not save someone who was disabled.

Zhang Yuchun, Li Dongyue, Wu Man'er, Li Sijin, and Yang Jueding stood behind, watching Li Qingqiu treat Li Sifeng with tension and worry.

Xu Ning sat cross-legged on a stool in the corner, circulating her internal energy to regulate her blood and qi.

The room was silent. No one dared to disturb Li Qingqiu. Their hearts were heavy, fearing that Li Sifeng would not make it through.

Li Qingqiu stopped, leaving three needles in Li Sifeng's chest. He said, "Alright, Sifeng is fine now. We just need to wait for him to wake up."

Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Yang Jueding then turned to Jiang Zhaoxia and asked, "How many people from the Seven Mountains Alliance came? Who is leading them?"

Jiang Zhaoxia opened her eyes and replied, "There were several hundred people, all of whom were quite skilled. The leader was highly skilled in martial arts and caused me a lot of trouble. In the end, he managed to escape. Before he left, he said that this matter was not over. I do not know his name."

"By the way, I'm so grateful that Xu Ning arrived in time this time, otherwise I might be dead."

Xu Ning?

Everyone turned to look at Xu Ning, who was only ten years old, with astonished expressions.

Xu Ning did not open her eyes, focusing on herself.

Is she really a genius?

Yang Jueding was secretly alarmed, not expecting that he had misjudged again. However, he didn't think too much about it. His expression became serious, and he said, "The Seven Mountains Alliance is a major sect in the martial arts world of Guzhou. If they attack our Qingxiao Sect with all their might, we will have a hard time resisting. They have as many as three thousand disciples, and their experts are numerous. This time we are really in trouble."

Three thousand!

Everyone was terrified. Just a few hundred people had almost cost Jiang Zhaoxia her life. How could they possibly withstand three thousand people gathered together?
Li Qingqiu said, "Let them rest first. It will take those guys some time to get back to the Seven Mountains Alliance. At least for the next half month, we can rest easy."

His tone was calm, and his face showed no emotion, but in reality, a storm was raging inside him, and he was unable to calm down.

After saying that, Li Qingqiu turned and walked towards the door, with the others following closely behind.

After leaving the room, Zhang Yuchun began to disperse his disciples, letting them continue with their own tasks, while Yang Jueding followed Li Qingqiu's steps.

"What are your thoughts on this?" Yang Jueding asked in a low voice as he walked beside Li Qingqiu.

Li Qingqiu replied, "I haven't thought it through yet, but this matter cannot be left unresolved."

Upon hearing his reply, Yang Jueding sighed and said, "This is the world of martial arts. Even if you don't provoke others, they will still come looking for trouble. You are still too young. If all else fails, find another place to lay low and wait a few years before coming back to reclaim your territory."

Li Qingqiu stopped and glanced at Yang Jueding. His gaze made Yang Jueding feel uneasy.

"Precisely because I'm young, I don't want to avoid it."

After saying these words, Li Qingqiu walked towards the mountain gate. Yang Jueding stopped and looked at him with a complicated expression.

After leaving the mountain gate, Li Qingqiu headed straight for the underground spiritual lake, even though it was getting dark.

He walked faster and faster, quickly disappearing into the night.

From the day he became the leader of Qingxiao Sect, Li Qingqiu anticipated that he would encounter various troubles in the future, so he hoped that Qingxiao Sect would develop in a low-key manner and try to delay the troubles.

Unfortunately, things didn't turn out as he wished.

He can avoid trouble, but when trouble comes, he won't back down.

The Seven Mountains Alliance had twice caused trouble for the Qingxiao Sect, making them mortal enemies in Li Qingqiu's mind, and the conflict was irreconcilable.

How can we find a way to deal with the Seven Mountains Alliance's next attack?

No!

He can't wait!

Li Qingqiu is going to draw his second destiny tonight. He plans to try his previous guess and see if he can forcibly raise his cultivation to the third level of the Nourishing Yuan Realm.

Half an hour later, Li Qingqiu entered the underground spiritual lake. After confirming that there were no wild beasts or outsiders trespassing, he brought up the Daoist panel and extracted Xu Ning's destiny.

Currently, Xu Ning has the strongest destiny. If we take on more disciples, who knows how long we'll have to wait to find someone stronger than Xu Ning.

Moreover, Xu Ning's cultivation speed is actually a little faster than Jiang Zhaoxia's, but Jiang Zhaoxia's swordsmanship talent is more suitable for actual combat.

After the destiny was chosen, Li Qingqiu was once again drawn into a mysterious state, as if entering a dream.

The underground space began to surge with spiritual energy, which moved closer to Li Qingqiu and gradually formed a vortex around him.

If being born a sword fanatic is a transformation of one's comprehension, then having a heavenly thunder spiritual root is a tempering of the physical body.

Before Xu Ning began cultivating immortality, her physique was extraordinary. Before she was even ten years old, she could endure hunger and walk for hundreds of miles, which was truly astonishing.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Xu Ning will surpass others and become the third person, after Jiang Zhaoxia and Li Qingqiu, to reach the second level of the Nourishing Essence Realm.

Li Qingqiu's consciousness was in a state of chaos. He felt as if he were in the clouds, facing the vast thunderbolts. The thunderbolts were terrifying, yet they seemed to be guiding him.

A thunderous roar echoed through the night sky over the Taikun Mountains, as if the heavens were angrily rebuking the killings on earth.

Jiang Zhaoxia opened her eyes and looked out the window. It was already dark, and Li Dongyue and Xu Ning had already returned to the female disciple's room.

"Third Uncle, is there anything we can do?"

Huang Shan, who was lying on another bed, asked a question, and the other second-generation disciples also looked at Jiang Zhaoxia.

Li Sifeng was seriously injured and unconscious, and Jiang Zhaoxia, the most powerful one, was also recovering from her injuries. Qingxiao Sect was plunged into an unprecedented gloom. Although the Seven Masters of Qingxiao were also worried and fearful, they did not want to stand idly by and wanted to do something for their sect.

Sitting next to Li Sifeng, Wu Man'er said in a muffled voice, "Third Senior Brother, I want to avenge Sixth Junior Brother."

Although Wu Man'er hasn't had a chance to make a move yet, everyone can feel that his strength is improving by leaps and bounds. Even sitting there, he looks like a fierce bear, with muscles on his body almost bursting out of his robe.

Zhang Yuchun lay on the bed, his back to everyone, his brows furrowed, seemingly lost in thought.

Jiang Zhaoxia withdrew her gaze, glanced at the disciples, and said irritably, "What are you thinking? You are still young, focus on practicing your skills. I don't need you now. Besides, I have already slaughtered the enemy so badly that they dare not come again."

Seeing that Jiang Zhaoxia remained arrogant and spoke recklessly, the disciples were relieved. At this critical moment, they even found themselves somewhat fond of Jiang Zhaoxia's arrogance.

The disciples began to inquire about the battle that had taken place at the foot of the mountain that day. Jiang Zhaoxia, having calmed down, did not hide anything and calmly recounted the great battle she had experienced.

He thought of Xu Ning and a strong sense of crisis suddenly arose in his heart.

He had misjudged her; that girl actually possessed talent no less than his. Senior Brother was truly remarkable.

……

Beside the underground spiritual lake, a silvery-blue light shone on Li Qingqiu's face. He slowly opened his eyes, and his eyes flickered with what appeared to be strands of lightning, giving his face a more divine look.

After Li Qingqiu opened his eyes, he quickly regained control of his physical body.

"what?"

Li Qingqiu exclaimed in surprise, then a look of delight appeared on her face.

He actually reached the third level of the Qi Nourishing Realm!
Not only that, his strength has also increased significantly, giving him a feeling of being reborn.

He originally wanted to use the spirit stones embedded in the mountain wall to break through his limits. When he came to cultivate before, he felt that those crystals contained rich spiritual energy, which could be absorbed into the body. However, if the amount was too large, it would easily damage the meridians, so he did not try it and did not allow his other junior brothers and sisters to take them without permission.

If these spirit stones can help cultivators cultivate, then they will be of great use, especially for newly emerging cultivation sects.

Li Qingqiu carefully sensed the vital energy within his body and discovered that not only had his vital energy increased several times over, but its essence had also changed.

Thunder attribute!
Cultivation techniques are divided into attributes, and the Taiqing Hunyuan Scripture he obtained contains various attributes, and can even be said to be a collection of the five elements. It can accommodate cultivators with different spiritual roots and aptitudes, and then develop their own path based on this technique.

Just like now, Li Qingqiu's vital energy has transformed into lightning, containing domineering lightning power.

In the future, when his energy falls on an enemy, it will also inflict lightning damage.

He felt his own energy had become more lethal, which explained why he had sensed something was wrong with Xu Ning's energy when he was teaching her.

The spiritual energy around him had not yet dissipated, which made him think of a certain possibility.

"Regarding my physical destiny, could I use this to elevate my cultivation level?"

This speculation made Li Qingqiu have even higher expectations for this type of fate.

He stood up, went to the mountain wall, took down a spirit stone, put it in his pocket, and then left the underground spirit lake.

He originally intended to use the spirit stones from the underground spirit lake to forcefully break through to the third level of the Nourishing Yuan Realm, but now that he has reached that level, there is no need for him to take the risk.

He is currently full of vital energy and does not need to recuperate.

He was prepared to act immediately and catch the Seven Mountains Alliance off guard!
Half an hour later.

Li Qingqiu returned to Qingxiao Sect and woke up Yang Jueding.

At this moment, the rain was pouring down and thunder was rumbling.

Yang Jueding opened the door and saw Li Qingqiu, who was soaking wet, and asked in surprise, "What have you been doing?"

Li Qingqiu stared at him and asked, "Do you know how to get to the Seven Mountains Alliance?"

Yang Jueding replied, "Of course I know. I've been a guest there before. What do you want?"

"Pack your things and come down the mountain with me."

Li Qingqiu turned away after saying these words, leaving Yang Jueding standing there stunned.

He arrived at his courtyard and knocked on the door of the room where his junior brothers lived. Soon, Zhang Yuchun opened the door.

"Yu Chun, I plan to take Yang Jueding down the mountain to patrol the Tai Kun Mountain range, in case the Seven Mountains Alliance members haven't left yet. In the next few days, tell the disciples not to stray too far from the sect until we return," Li Qingqiu said with a smile.

Zhang Yuchun frowned and asked, "Senior brother, with such heavy rain, why don't you go down the mountain tomorrow?"

Li Qingqiu waved his hand and said, "It's better to act on a rainy night."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards his house. Zhang Yuchun hesitated, but ultimately chose to believe Li Qingqiu and then closed the door.

after awhile.

Wearing a straw raincoat, Yang Jueding waited for Li Qingqiu at the mountain gate. Li Qingqiu was also wearing a straw raincoat, with the Tianhong Sword left to him by his master hanging at his waist.
