Chapter 1045

Golden nature, originally a condensation of a cultivator's life Dao fruit, was supreme and noble, a supreme treasure that everyone in the world coveted.

According to Lu Jiangxian's current understanding of the True Person level, golden nature was proven on one's own body, and it was something that truly belonged to the cultivator himself; the fruit position was the position of heaven and earth; cultivators today often talk about seeking gold, but it actually consists of two processes: proving gold and ascending to the position... most can only complete the first step.

Senior Duanmu Kui of those years, and later Si Boxiu, had both proven golden nature; once golden nature had no owner, it would be ridden by the Qi of heaven and earth, becoming an evil demon, and in Lu Jiangxian's view, these evil demons had high and low distinctions.

"Golden nature is essentially a cultivator's life Dao fruit; if this cultivator is the owner of the fruit position, the fruit position recognizes Him, and naturally recognizes His golden nature, and the golden nature inherits the owner's authority..."

These evil demons are born with the ability to sense fruit positions, so they are difficult to resist, like the evil bird transformed from the golden nature of the Heavenly Martial True Person of those years... even a Zifu cultivator with supernatural powers added to his body is as fragile as a mortal in front of the authority involving the fruit position.

And the evil demons transformed from the golden nature of Senior Duanmu Kui, Si Boxiu, and others who died after proving the Dao—was their strength much different? Lu Jiangxian had calculated carefully... but there was a big surprise:

"These evil demons transformed from the breakthrough and fall... actually don't differ much."

The key lies in the breakthrough and fall of the Zifu Golden Core Dao.

The moment Lu Jiangxian saw Wang Xun, who practiced the ancient Immortal method, he knew that the Zifu Golden Core Dao was a shortcut; it did not seek life numbers, but gambled on sensing the fruit position with a lifetime of cultivation, in order to match the life, and only at the moment of seeking the Dao in the Purple Gold Demonic Dao did golden nature exist.

Cultivators seek gold and prove the position, asking the position with their own golden nature; at the moment he seeks the Dao, as long as there is no one in the position, the fruit position has already sensed it... to make an inappropriate metaphor, this golden nature left behind by proving the Dao has already become "familiar" in front of the position, perhaps it will slowly become weak with the passage of time, but at the very moment of failing to prove the position, the power of this evil demon is no worse than those left behind in ancient times.

"Therefore, the Underworld has to mobilize magic treasures... one is because those few human walkers don't have high strength, and it's easy for some golden natures with special functions to escape, and second... it's also because the golden nature of some people is truly powerful."

However, besides these golden natures, there is another possibility, which is the ancient Dao lineages that practice the Dao of absorbing Qi and nourishing nature, the Witch Talisman Dao, the ancient demonic Dao... these Dao lineages that have both nature and life, condense golden nature in advance without proving the position, used to leave benefits for descendants and bribe ghost messengers.

The evil demons condensed when these golden natures occasionally fall are far inferior to the former two.

Understanding the reason for this, Lu Jiangxian only needed one inspection to know that what was on Senior Fuxun was an extraordinary thing.

"With stable and powerful authority added to the body, once crazy, the destructive power caused is close to a True Person!"

Such an important matter, logically, these few great figures all knew, but Lu Jiangxian observed carefully in the Grand Void and looked at the present world again... except for one or two dragon kin patrolling the sea, he simply didn't find their traces.

"To say they didn't notice is not impossible, after all, this object is hidden to the point that Li Que Wan had to urge the investigation for me to notice..."

Lu Jiangxian had seen many True Persons over the years, and his own spiritual sense was ultimately a notch higher; even he was like this... it was normal for the True Persons not to have noticed.

"Since this is the case, this object is not an ordinary evil demon, it should be some kind of means of a True Person..."

"Shaoyang..."

Looking at it now, the demon lord Xiyan on the Daxiyuan had the greatest suspicion, known as the "Xiyong Zhong Shengbai Yan True Person"; since he was a demon head, it's not certain what kind of insidious means he had.

He stared and saw that Senior Fuxun had already sat firmly in the secret room, taking spirit objects to heal his injuries, and the five facial features on the back of his head twisted rapidly, sliding along his cheeks to his chest, then sliding down his waist to his ankles.

The golden lips parted slightly, revealing a smile, and unexpectedly jumped up from his ankles, landing on the ground full of array patterns, the pure white pupils staying on his thighs, looking down at the ground, as if leading the way.

This thing was evil enough to make people panic; the golden lips grew on the ground as if they were natural, not affecting the great array at all, while the golden-powder-painted lips and teeth twitched slightly, as if they would stand up and take the entire island as its main body as soon as they got up.

"If this thing fell on a Li family member, one could still try to fight it quietly, but if this thing ate Lulai Island, and the movement was big, no one would have a life..."

This golden nature evil demon, if it actively transferred to Li Que Wan, Lu Jiangxian naturally had the possibility of suppressing it; even if it refused to transfer, if Senior Fuxun was willing to go into the Immortal Array, Lu Jiangxian even dared to fight it, but all this was based on the foundation that this was truly an ordinary evil demon; Lu Jiangxian had doubts in his heart, how could he know if this evil demon was the means of someone... or a consensus reached by the True Persons?

"A True Person splitting a wisp of his own golden nature to walk the world... is not impossible! The Heavenly Martial True Person of those years could still leave three sets of armor to guard, the other True Persons... couldn't they?"

If this was the case, not seeing a trace on Li Que Wan was almost a confession.

Fortunately, the lips and teeth wandered around in the secret room for a while, as if not very satisfied, turned their heads and jumped back onto Senior Fuxun, huddling together on the back of his head, whispering to each other, which was quite intense for a while.

Lu Jiangxian lowered his brows slightly, distinguishing carefully, and his guess in his heart became more certain:

"This object has extremely high intelligence... and has many thoughts, able to argue with itself... it is definitely not any ordinary evil demon!"

Realizing this point, Lu Jiangxian felt a bit relieved secretly, and was in a dilemma for a moment:

"Since it has such high intelligence, not to mention understanding the arrangements behind its master, at least it knows how to protect itself and won't riot casually; Senior Fuxun wants to rely on the dragon kin now... it's not certain there is an implication of this thing, and this evil demon might just want to find a dragon... Li clan agreed... and got involved in it; if I don't pay attention, who knows what madness this evil demon will go crazy with..."

After thinking about it, Lu Jiangxian decided to wait and see, first look at the reaction of this thing, and then let Li Zhouwei deal with it, throwing this time bomb to the dragon kin.

He was distracted to pay attention, his writing had long since stopped, and he became worried.

"Yang Tianya..."

Li Zhouwei went to Simin, and the Yang clan cultivators were secretly talking in the hall; although he didn't enter the hall, he had the Immortal Mirror to probe and illuminate, hearing these words clearly from far away.

The two words 【Xuan'an】 in this, however, were exactly the same as the news Chi Buzi got from Ding Jiao!

"The person behind Dali Mountain is the remnant of the Yuan Prefecture, and it is precisely Xuan'an, as well as Qingyi Yuan Xinyi."

He thought for a moment and recited:

"Qing Qing Yu Qian and Xuan'an hold the Immortal Array, driving the 【Moon Laurel Evolution Taiyin Xuanguang】, and there is an Immortal Tool in their hands—it is the 【Qingyi Yuan Xinyi】 in their mouths..."

This is a very important clue; the 【Great Expansion Heavenly Element Book】 cannot calculate the layout of the Dao fetus, nor can it calculate the Immortal Tool; at the time of calculation, the Immortal Mirror main body and many of Lu Jiangxian's guessed Dao fetus means were input as known conditions into the 【Great Expansion Heavenly Element Book】... since the 【Qingyi Yuan Xinyi】 could be calculated, it shows that this is not a secret, and many Golden Core forces' small cultivators knew of this Immortal Tool and revealed its existence.

Lu Jiangxian calculated many times, and even obtained a few words about this Immortal Tool.

"【Qingyi Yuan Xinyi】... is an object of an ancient Immortal Lord, capable of making the calculator miscalculate, and the observer lose observation..."

What is strange is that Lu Jiangxian simply cannot perceive such an Immortal Tool on the lake!

"It doesn't exist, or this Immortal Tool is not in the Grand Void, and the divine mystery doesn't operate through the Grand Void... if neither is the case, then the broken Mysterious Mirror itself is at the Dao fetus level, and is at the same level as the Immortal Tool, and they cannot sense each other..."

But Lu Jiangxian didn't sense it... which means that many secrets on the lake are known to the demon fox—even Qing Qing Yu Qian specifically practiced 【Listening to the Awakening Stars】, just to listen to the movements of mortals on the lake; the Demon King said with his mouth that he hadn't used it, but if there were no taboos, how could he not use it?

"Dali Mountain is a legacy of the Yuan Prefecture, which is the means of that Prefecture Lord; 【Qingyi Yuan Xinyi】 or Qing Qing Yu Qian are all left behind to protect me through the initial period, and the 【Moon Laurel Evolution Taiyin Xuanguang】 is also the key to protecting Moon-Watching Lake from leaking wind everywhere, otherwise with a True Person sitting in Moon-Watching, I couldn't do anything..."

This 【Moon Laurel Evolution Taiyin Xuanguang】, although he hadn't seen it, he had seen something very similar—【Golden Crow Transformation Taiyin Xuanguang】.

This object is in an Immortal Array at the bottom of the sea, used to suppress the Immortal Array, and its power is so great that even a True Person cannot bear it; this array is exactly where Li Jiangqun used to secretly talk with the cultivators in the past!

"That is to say... such Immortal Arrays are not just one... there is another corresponding Taiyin Immortal Array... Xuan'an can still participate in the world situation in a state of poor condition; it is precisely by relying on this 【Moon Laurel Evolution Taiyin Xuanguang】..."

"This array is either in the Yuan Prefecture 【Donghua Heaven】, or the secret realm where the fox kin hides is this Immortal Array, so it can hide between the Grand Voids; it seems it is it..."

This Xuan'an... actually Lu Jiangxian was not completely unaware!

When Wanling Heaven fell, the 【Great Expansion Heavenly Element Book】 triggered many influences falling from the sky, falling into all parts of the world; Lu Jiangxian took the opportunity to arrange a backup, using Li Suining as a bright card, generously exerting influence with the power of the 【Great Expansion Heavenly Element Book】.

It was precisely because this situation was clear, and when Li Suining was reborn and his memory was different, a force fell from the sky to investigate carefully; Lu Jiangxian had long been secretly guarding on the side, just waiting to see which family was monitoring the lake, and was caught by him right on the spot!

Only then did Lu Jiangxian completely confirm that there was indeed a being beyond Zifu behind the fox clan!

Although this aura was fleeting, Lu Jiangxian was not what he used to be, and even personally deduced it with the 【Great Expansion Heavenly Element Book】, identifying at a glance that it was the "Si Tian" Dao, and even made his face look strange...

This aura was of an extremely high level, but it seemed to be suppressed by something, extremely distressed; if it weren't for the 【Great Expansion Heavenly Element Book】 being of the "Si Tian" Dao level, borrowing this to pry and intercept, I'm afraid it would have drifted away like smoke halfway through.

This made Lu Jiangxian's heart float with secret guesses:

"Is this Xuan'an truly weak... or... He is not the true owner of the Immortal Tool, and is also unable to get rid of the influence of the 【Qingyi Yuan Xinyi】! If it is the latter, the current situation will inevitably be much more active!"

But whether it was the former or the latter, the Li clan could develop safely to this day, and the fox kin had made great contributions; knowing that the other party had an Immortal Array and Immortal Tool, Lu Jiangxian didn't act rashly, secretly noting down:

"For now, wait and see the changes, wait for Li Zhouwei and Chi Buzi to achieve perfect supernatural powers one after another and come into contact with higher secrets... see clearly the origins and backgrounds of these people... it's best to wait until Li Zhouwei handles this calamity... and I take this most important step myself before talking."

His gaze flowed, and he stayed on Senior Fuxun in the secret room again.

"If I don't send this thing away quickly... how would Li Que Wan dare to go into seclusion on this island; with her current Dao practice, she can go into seclusion in at most five or six years... five or six years... Li Zhouwei should also come out of seclusion once, blind... it's just that I have to be distracted to watch over the island during this period."

Li Que Wan's speed of Dao cultivation was getting faster and faster, and Lu Jiangxian was not surprised; if the secret method was a test paper with extremely high difficulty, the answers had already been read by her for decades.

"Averaging the time of practicing secret methods into the cultivation of early years, and these early cultivation Dao theories can assist in the improvement of cultivation and the breakthrough of various passes... this is probably the cultivation method of those Golden Core Dao lineages..."

This kind of cultivation method will be slower in the early stage, but it will have no harm and only benefits in the later stage; it just requires high-level Dao methods to be closely linked with Zifu secret methods, and only forces with True Persons sitting in town can possibly gather them.

It was precisely this model of practicing high-level Dao methods in advance that was of great help to Zifu; Lu Jiangxian tasted the sweetness and hurriedly extracted several copies from the pile of merit methods and technique methods that the Li family would exchange for, sending them to Dangjiang to work overtime to modify, so as not to be the only one busy.

This technique couldn't catch up with 【Mysterious Witch Dao Arts】, but it was also carefully prepared; by then... even if Li Jiangchun's speed of practicing secret methods couldn't compare to Li Que Wan's, it would still far exceed Li Jiangqian's.

"He practices 'Xiang Xiang Ju Chen', although it is in the Three Yin, Shaoyin has more Yang, and practicing in the Bright Yang land is not bad; plus 'Xiang Xiang Ju Chen' is the place where 'Shaoyin' and 'Clear Qi' intersect, and it has the sign of pulling up cultivation; with Li Suining's interference, Li Ximing was not injured, nor did he provoke the Shengbai Dao; if he is more careful, really go to Peacock Sea to seek 【Fangxi Fangxi Fangxi Miaolu】 for him, this kind of spirit medicine that is completely consistent with the foundation, I will worry less for him."

"Moreover... now with such a change, with a taste of Purple Qi, Li Ximing's 'World Bright' is finally achieved; in the deduction, the worst time took five times to succeed..."

Lu Jiangxian didn't know much about the situation of the Shaoyin fruit position, but the path of choosing Shaoyin was carefully considered—the Mysterious Blade given to Chi Buzi back then used part of the supernatural power cultivation of Shaozhi, and most of it was still in his hands; as long as there was a chance to bestow it, let Li Ximing achieve the Dan, and with the cooperation of 【Fangxi Fangxi Fangxi Miaolu】, the cultivation speed of Li Jiangchun before and after Zifu would be extremely terrifying.

"It's just that the merit method he practices was modified by me, and it has the appearance of six grades, but there is not a single secret method, which is another project!"

He felt bitter in his heart, so he had to extract several more copies from the pile of deductions that the Li family would exchange for, sending them to Dangjiang to work overtime to modify, so as not to be the only one busy.
