He cultivated himself into a Dao Ancestor starting from Qi Refining.

Lin Shaoyu has been training mortals and Qi Refining cultivators during this period, and with this cultivation of supernatural powers, he has already used up most of his resources, leaving only some magic treasures and some resources that he can't use in the short term.

Rumble!!!

The stone door to the secluded training room slowly rose. Lin Shaoyu had reached his peak condition. He walked out of the training room and pushed open the door.

boom!

As soon as Lin Shaoyu came out, he sensed a fluctuation of true qi. He looked in the direction from which the fluctuation came and a look of joy appeared on his face.

The He Shi Bi jade also sensed something, and a black destiny was drawn to it, coming from afar and ignoring the barriers of time and space, falling directly into the He Shi Bi jade.

They reaped a dark fate.

"Wu Qi has successfully cultivated Qi."

Lin Shaoyu thought to himself.

After half an hour.

inside the house.

"Your servant Wu Qi kneels before Your Majesty."

Wu Qi originally had a full head of white hair, but with his successful Qi Refining and entry into the first level of Qi Refining, he is now radiant and looks as if he has become twenty years younger.

"Um."

Lin Shaoyu nodded slightly, quite satisfied. Although he had failed three times and wasted some resources, he had at least managed to cultivate one. "Wu Qi, now that you have broken through and entered the first level of Qi Refining, I will bestow upon you another true skill. I hope you will cultivate diligently and break through as soon as possible."

"Thank you, my lord."

Wu Qi knelt and kowtowed, solemnly accepting a jade slip from Lin Shaoyu's hand. He was filled with excitement and trepidation. "Your servant Wu Qi will certainly not disappoint you, my lord."

"very good."

Lin Shaoyu was even happier. "The Precious Life Heavenly Vast True Skill is a seventh-order true skill, which is two orders higher than a ninth-order true skill. It will be more difficult to cultivate, so you will need to work even harder."

"Yes, Wu Qi understands."

Wu Qi nodded solemnly once again.

The Precious Life Heavenly Vast True Skill is a seventh-order true skill derived from the "Minor Divine Power: Substitute Fate". It can also be combined with two other seventh-order true skills to form a "Minor Divine Power: Moon in the Water".

Of course, for Lin Shaoyu, as long as Wu Qi cultivates the "Precious Life Heavenly Vast True Skill", he will be one of the best candidates to become Lin Shaoyu's "Substitute Life Puppet".

The stronger and more profound the foundation of the "Substitute Puppet," the greater the calamity it can shield Lin Shaoyu from.

If Lin Shaoyu could truly refine Wu Qi into his own "substitute puppet," it would be a huge win for him. Not only would his previous investment not be a loss, but he would also make a fortune.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At this moment, Lin Shaoyu clearly felt a slight tremor in the ground. With his perception, he could tell that more than 100,000 people had gathered outside the city. This was because a large army was marching towards Blackstone City, which caused this commotion.

brush!

Lin Shaoyu looked up and saw a figure soaring into the sky from the eastern part of the Immortal Master's Mansion. The figure was incredibly fast; it was none other than Senior Brother Fu Hongxu.

"Junior Sister Chi Lian, Junior Brother Lin, come with me at once!"

Fu Hongxu's voice had already come through.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Shaoyu saw Chi Lian following behind Fu Hongxu like a blinding red light. Lin Shaoyu hesitated for only a moment, then casually told Yue Qingrou and the others to prioritize their safety and escape from Black Stone City if necessary, before quickly following after them.

At this moment, Lin Shaoyu had arrived at the gate of Blackstone City. Standing in the void, with his hands behind his back, he looked ahead. The Yue Kingdom's army had already besieged the city.

The army of 100,000 was quite large, imposing and filled with an extremely strong military aura. The garrison of Blackrock City was also formidable, with a force of 100,000 as well.

In addition, Lin Shaoyu also saw a number of cultivators. Although their numbers were not comparable to the army of 100,000, there were still thousands of them, and quite a few of them had reached the Qi Refining Realm.

"Activate the formation!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Su Changqing shouted, having already given the order. The cultivators in the city immediately sprang into action, activating the city's protective array.

As the array patterns spread out, a light curtain was formed in a very short time, covering the entire Blackrock City.

"kill!"

"kill!!"

"attack!!"

"..."

The great battle has already begun. The enemy army of Yue Kingdom has a force of 100,000, plus thousands of cultivators. They have joined forces to form a powerful "military formation" and evolved a ferocious beast into the formation. It is a towering black python with bared fangs and claws, and its body is hundreds of meters long. It is charging towards Black Stone City, trying to destroy the city's protective formation.

The cultivators inside Blackrock City maintained the city's protective array, while the defending soldiers launched successive counterattacks from the city walls, and the war between the attackers and defenders gradually intensified.

Clang!

Lin Shaoyu's eyes flickered. Standing in the void, he suddenly extended a sword finger and unleashed the Spirit Slaying Sword Technique. A dazzling sword beam shot out, slicing through the void and landing among the enemy army that was attacking the city.

Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!

Countless drops of blood splattered, accompanied by piercing screams, and hundreds of people died at Lin Shaoyu's hands, their gray lifelines surging into the He Shi Bi jade.

"call……"

Lin Shaoyu took a deep breath, a hint of joy in his heart. He glanced at the He Shi Bi and saw that it had gained a full 282 gray fates, which, if converted, was equivalent to 28 white fates. This was something that could only be obtained by changing the fates of 28 mortals.

"really."

Lin Shaoyu sighed inwardly, "Destruction is easier than creation."

Lin Shaoyu needs time, energy, and resources to change the fate of twenty-eight mortals, but just now, Lin Shaoyu easily killed nearly three hundred people with a simple flick of his sword finger and cast a sword technique, easily obtaining two hundred and eighty-two gray fates.

This is the gap.

"Um?"

Fu Hongxu naturally saw Lin Shaoyu's actions. "Junior Brother Lin, now is not the time for us to make a move. Our target is those three outer disciples of the Yuanshi Immortal Sect. These mortals and ordinary cultivators can be left to others."

Lin Shaoyu smiled and said, "I just wanted to test the power of my magic."

"come out!"

With a wave of his right hand, Lin Shaoyu sent a black light out of his storage bag, breaking through the city's protective formation and landing among the enemy troops outside the city.

Mother-Child Soul-Refining Banner!

"kill!"

Lin Shaoyu formed hand seals and cast a series of spells, fully unleashing the power of the Mother-Child Soul Refining Banner. Ghostly figures burst forth from the banner, baring their fangs and claws as they pounced on the cultivators.

"ah!!"

"Oh no! This is a magic weapon!"

"Be careful!"

"..."

As screams rang out one after another, ordinary cultivators were no match for the power of the Mother-Child Soul Refining Banner. Several cultivators and many soldiers died under its power.

call out!

Just then, a crimson sword light seemed to tear through the void, containing an extremely terrifying power. It was a crimson flying sword that cut down the countless ghostly shadows and repelled Lin Shaoyu's Mother-Child Soul Refining Banner.

"As a high-level Qi Refining cultivator, isn't it rather unbecoming of you to attack ordinary mortals and cultivators repeatedly?"

Standing opposite him was a middle-aged man with red hair. His demeanor was sharp, like a sword drawn from its sheath, and his gaze was fixed on Lin Shaoyu in the city.
