Yunmeng Immortal Clan

Blood Wrath Maha thought Song Daoxuan would spare his soul, but Song Daoxuan directly used the Demonic Soul Searching Technique on Blood Wrath Maha.

Normally, a Foundation Establishment cultivator in the early stages cannot perform Soul Search on a higher-level cultivator using pills. However, Song Daoxuan was born with a superior spiritual sense compared to other cultivators of the same level. Therefore, his spiritual sense power is now comparable to that of a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator, which is enough for him to use this technique on the Blood Wrath Maha before him.

Soon, the cultivation techniques and various spells that Blood Wrath Maha had practiced before his death were gathered into Song Daoxuan's mind.

As for the useless information about Mahakasyapa's bloodthirstiness during his lifetime, which was of no use to Song Daoxuan's cultivation and was even extremely harmful, Song Daoxuan instinctively eliminated it all.

In the cultivation world, many cultivators extract memories from others' minds, thereby overwhelming their own original memories and turning them into mentally impaired individuals.

Furthermore, if righteous cultivators absorb too much of the insights from the Blood Wrath Maha and some demonic cultivators, it can lead to the terrifying phenomenon of demonic possession during their cultivation.

After completing the soul-searching technique, Song Daoxuan directly crushed Xue Nu Mohe's soul into fragments.

In the cultivation world, there is a concept of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. In the cultivation world, whether one is a mortal or a cultivator, one has a soul. As long as the soul is immortal, it can return to the underworld after death and then continue to enter the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

The death of mortals is beyond our control, but any immortal cultivator who has cultivated to the late stage of Foundation Establishment can cultivate their soul into a higher level of primordial spirit. If such a cultivator unfortunately dies, as long as their primordial spirit remains intact, a fragment of their soul can be entrusted to it.

Such a primordial spirit, after being reincarnated in the six realms of reincarnation, can retain some memories of its previous life. This not only increases the probability of being born with spiritual roots in the next life, but also allows it to gain an early advantage over its peers.

However, some cultivators take this very lightly, because it is said that after a cultivator at the late Foundation Establishment stage or above reincarnates, although they can retain some memories of their previous life, their entire being, including their three souls and six spirits, has been disrupted and reorganized. Even if there is an afterlife, the person in that afterlife will definitely not be the same person as the person in the previous life.

"In his previous life, Blood Wrath Maha was a Buddhist cultivator comparable to the late Foundation Establishment stage. However, it's a pity that Blood Wrath Maha was a traitor to Buddhism and suffered many attempts to kill him, resulting in the near-complete loss of all his valuable possessions..."

"The Azure Lotus Sword and the Wind Shield have sustained minor damage, but fortunately, I still have these eight Blood Demon Relics, which can compensate for my losses and even make a profit..."

However, Song Daoxuan still needed to consider the use of these eight Blood Demon Relics. After all, Maha and the like were heretical Buddhist cultivators who had killed countless people to create demonic artifacts. If they were used too often, they might breed inner demons and backfire on themselves.

As for Song Hongxiang's storage bag, Song Daoxuan was unable to dispose of it.

However, right after Song Daoxuan put the eight Blood Demon Relics into his storage bag, he turned his attention to the ancient Buddha statue.

With Song Daoxuan's cultivation level, he could not discern anything profound about this ancient Buddha; it was merely an object in which the soul of the Blood Wrath Maha resided.

Judging from Blood Wrath Maha's memories, Blood Wrath Maha did not completely possess Song Hongxiang at first, but instead entrusted his body to this ancient Buddha.

Blood Wrath Maha gradually and imperceptibly influenced Song Hongxiang's mind through this ancient Buddha.

Song Hongxiang was in charge of the mining and revenue of the entire Qingwu mine. All the massive amounts of spirit stones sold by the Qingwu mine in the cultivation world had to pass through Song Hongxiang's hands.

Then the family elders escorted the spirit stones from Song Hongxiang into the family treasury.

Over time, Song Hongxiang began to embezzle the clan's spirit stones and started falsifying accounts.

At first, Song Hongxiang was only embezzling a small amount of spirit stones, but as time went on, his greed grew, and his falsification of accounts was discovered by the clan cultivators Song Hongshan and Song Hongshui.

At this moment, Song Hongxiang felt a pang of regret. It was during this time of great inner turmoil that his defenses were at their weakest.

Song Hongxiang then went to the shrine to worship the ancient Buddha statue that he had dug out of the mine.

At this critical moment, the Blood Wrath Maha within the ancient Buddha decisively possessed Song Hongxiang, completely devouring Song Hongxiang's last shred of reason.

Bloodlust Maha only wanted to stay peacefully in Song's Qingwu Town, using Song Hongxiang's physical body to restore his cultivation level from his previous life.

He naturally didn't want Song Hongshan and Song Hongshui to expose the original owner's embezzlement and report it to the Qinglian Island family head's mansion, so he decided to devise a plan to get rid of Song Hongshan and Song Hongshui.

Having been possessed by the Blood Wrathful Maha, Song Hongxiang, using the ancient Buddha as a medium, decisively employed a method to indirectly influence the rationality of those mortals, causing a surge of malevolence among the laborers of these mines.

Blood Rage Maha was the one who triggered this violent energy.

Taking advantage of the opportunity when Song Hongshui and Song Hongshan were arguing with these mine workers, Song Hongxiang unleashed his ferocious energy. The mine workers' minds went blank for a moment, and they were filled with uncontrollable rage. They swarmed forward, picked up their weapons, and attacked Song Hongshui and Song Hongshan, the two low-level Qi Refining cultivators.

Once the hostile aura dissipated, the expressions of these mine workers gradually returned to clarity, as if nothing had happened.

Song Hongshui and Song Hongshan collapsed to the ground, turning into two corpses.

This is the whole story of the Qingwu Town incident. Because he selectively absorbed some of the memories of Blood Wrath Maha, Song Daoxuan was almost completely confident about the matter.

However, he chose to have Song Zhichu of the family head's mansion send a cultivator to handle the matter.

After all, with Blood Poison Maha dead, this matter is considered settled, and he can now dedicate some time to further studying his alchemy skills.

Since Song Daoxuan refined the Foundation Establishment Pill, he has not refined any new second-tier pills. However, this time, he has some pill formulas provided by the Yuanqing Pill Record and has also acquired some second-tier main ingredients from the Qunying Pavilion.

Song Daoxuan then devoted himself entirely to refining these second-tier pills.

At Tian Shu Peak, in Song Zhichu's residence, Song Zhichu, dressed in a cloak, received news from Song Daoxuan about Qingwu Town.

His brows furrowed slightly.

"I never imagined that Song Hongxiang would embezzle spirit stones, and I certainly never imagined that someone like Blood Wrath Maha would have been lurking in our clan for so long!"

"Governing a large country is like cooking a small fish; with a population of one million, the Song family is increasingly feeling powerless to govern it!"

Song Zhichu increasingly felt that it would be difficult to properly govern the entire cultivation family on Qinglian Island by relying solely on the powerful elders of the family head's mansion and the elders' council.

Therefore, he wanted to enact some laws to restrain the Song clan members, and also wanted to set up an institution to supervise them. Otherwise, with more and more people like Song Hongxiang embezzling, the family would eventually decline.
