Chapter 840: Fruit of Revenge (112) (Bonus chapter for Alliance Leader Ya Na)

The clouds were undulating, and a point of blue-gold color pierced through, absorbing the rotation of the sun and moon and the brilliance of heaven and earth, before piercing down the mountain forest and landing in the continent in the lake.

The dust-sealed cave-dwelling moved slowly, shaking off layers of falling dust. A wisp of red light escaped from it, drifting and dissipating, condensing and changing before the array, condensing into a woman wearing a cloud-satin long dress, with a talisman depicting a mountain ghost in purple and black tied around her waist, making a subtle sound of wind as she walked lightly.

She took a step forward, reached out her hand, and caught the point of blue-gold color in the sky, turning it over gently. This color then dissipated and disappeared, turning into dots of silver light.

"Just in time to take this opportunity to cultivate 【Scattered White Falling Feathers】!"

So she rode the wind and went all the way to the hall. After traveling for a while, she saw an old man bowing in front of the hall, skinny as a stick, with white hair. She smiled and asked:

"Guest Qu... what are you doing here?"

Qu Bushi was thinking blankly about how to report, was startled, and raised his head in surprise and suspicion. Suddenly seeing her, he was stunned first, then hurriedly said:

"Eldest Miss... you have left seclusion?!!"

Li Que Wan was the woman with the highest talent in the Jiangque generation, and she was brought back to the continent by Li Qinghong in person. At least to Qu Bushi, her status was extremely noble. The old man bowed hurriedly and sighed: "Now the Patriarch has someone to help... It is still the matter of Jiangbei..."

He had just shouted, when he heard a burst of footsteps in the hall. The young man in the dark red robe stepped down from the hall platform quickly, arrived at the door, his eyes lit up, presenting a look of joy and worry, and smiled: "Sister has left seclusion! Why don't I see the celestial phenomenon?"

Li Que Wan cupped her hands and said softly: "The change of material properties, just a piece of sunset glow is enough, it is not a Daoist lineage that is clearly manifested in front of people."

"Come in and talk."

Li Jiangqian raised his hand first, covered the hall door, led her into the hall, leaned out, and turned to ask Qu Bushi, whispering: "What is the matter?"

Qu Bushi hurriedly said:

"【Tangjin Sect】 has been defeated. Those Situ family members are all seriously injured. Sect Master Situ Biao had his eyes plucked out, his five internal organs thrown away, and was made into... Daoist Bai's magic tool... 【Tangjin Sect】 has shrunk into the mountain, 【Huaihun Hall】 has returned to the mansion, and the Black Rat Protector has also been able to return to Baiku. Something is bound to happen."

"I understand."

Li Jiangqian sent him away, then showed a smile, arrived in the hall, and asked:

"Congratulations, Sister, what is the wonder?"

Li Que Wan cultivated 【Hou Shu Jin Shu】, and the immortal foundation she refined was 'Hou Shen Shu'. There are not many legacies of the 'Full Dan' nature, and few people have heard of this name, let alone inquire about it.

Then Li Que Wan replied: "'Hou Shen Shu' is the way of Full Dan gestation, collecting immortal light, condensing gold and mercury, avoiding death and extending life, sending birds and driving beasts, using secret methods to seek immortality, calcining the essence of heaven and earth, in order to seek longevity."

She appeared a bit hesitant, shook her head and said: "Fundamentally, this is a Daoist lineage that avoids the world to cultivate immortality in order to seek the survival of life."

Li Jiangqian only heard this and nodded, saying: "'Full Dan' Dao, I only heard of a 'Secret Secret Baigong', fighting is not bad, 'Hou Shen Shu' is biased toward escaping and refining mercury medicine... It is also appropriate."

He smiled slightly and replied:

"There are brothers and uncles in the family, so they can take care of you. With this kind of... the benefit to the family is much stronger than us. Unlike my immortal foundation, which has auxiliary wonders, it can only serve some wood and spiritual herbs on weekdays to grow cultivation, and cannot be used by the clan."

"Brother, this is wrong."

Li Que Wan smiled: "Fighting is indispensable. It is often said that cultivating techniques to protect the Dao. True Person Zhaojing was famous for his alchemy when he established the foundation. Yu Xiuxian is also the first class. He is the head of the Four Xi, and I have never heard of him losing to anyone in fighting."

"Even True Person Ye Huai with three divine abilities could not hurt him, and finally had to let the Great True Person take action, forcing him to go overseas..."

Li Jiangqian wanted to speak but stopped, and had to nod. Li Que Wan continued: "'Hou Shen Shu' Dao, the addition to the change of material properties need not be said, I am afraid it is stronger than 'Secret Secret Baigong', and can deploy the Qi of the two instruments, helping the transformation of many in the five virtues, mainly in the three virtues of water, fire, and gold."

"The second point lies in change. This Dao can change the appearance of the body, disguise magic tools, arrays, and even cover up the Daoist lineage. If the divine ability is broken through, it is even more capable of change, not just confined to the human body."

Li Jiangqian nodded silently, pondering without speaking. Li Que Wan said with some worry:

"'Full Dan' only fears three points. One is 'He Shui'. Once this water falls, it can disperse mercury and turn it into sand. The second is 'Tianwu Tianwu Binghuo'. This fire is even more evil, burning mercury and melting lead, destroying spirituality. The last one is 'Yuan Lei', which is the current Yuan Magnetic Dao..."

Li Jiangqian heard this and felt a bit regretful, replying: "It is a pity that 'He Shui' is in its prime, and it is not easy to avoid. 'Tianwu Tianwu Binghuo' is not an unknown Daoist lineage either. It is that 'Yuan Lei' has disappeared for a long time. I heard it is only in the Wu State, so there is no need to worry too much."

Li Que Wan also nodded and said: "There is also that 【Scattered White Falling Feathers】, which is an escape technique I have never heard of. I often could not get started early on. Now with the condensation of 'Hou Shen Shu', the celestial phenomenon of heaven and earth secretly matches the principle of change, which can be considered as having cultivated the escape technique."

The cultivation of the 'Full Dan' Dao has always been strange. I did not expect that the celestial phenomenon of breakthrough could also assist cultivation. Li Jiangqian congratulated her and asked:

"Can I see it? I have never heard of the escape technique of 'Full Dan'."

"Not quite appropriate."

Li Que Wan shook her head and explained: "This escape technique is similar to the blood escape of ordinary cultivators. Escaping is a great injury to blood energy and cultivation, so it is not suitable to demonstrate it for no reason."

Li Jiangqian realized and nodded. After waiting for such a moment, he saw Li Xuanxuan push the door and come up from the side, wearing dark blue clothes, his old face smiling, and holding a small box in his arms.

"Wan'er!"

Li Xuanxuan had so many descendants. Except for one Li Ximing, not many were successful now. If Li Zhouming was the treasure in his palm, Li Que Wan could be said to be the flesh of his heart. Now that she was in front of him, the two juniors bowed together. The old man placed the box on the table, helped one up with one hand, and smiled:

"Congratulations, Quewan, look at this thing..."

Li Que Wan then took the box. It was the size of a pillow, with gold cotton inside, only surrounding a silver-gray mercury drop the size of a fingernail.

Li Que Wan could not move her eyes away, listening to the old man say: "There is a Tiefo State in the river bend in the North, which is the territory of the demonic Helian family. They also sent people during the North-South dispute, named Helian Changguang. He was shot and killed by Xuanfeng in the Great Ning Palace, and he carried such a treasure... I do not know if it is a spiritual object or a magic tool. It is this mercury drop."

"This is a thing of the 'Full Dan' nature. We cannot identify it, and the Helian family also has Zifu, so they did not take it out and kept it until today."

"Later, Ximing broke through to Zifu, and I remembered this thing and gave it to him to see. He said it was a magic tool, not a spiritual object, and it could not be solved without Full Dan magic techniques."

Li Que Wan first picked up a piece of silver light, dropped it on the mercury drop, calculated it slightly, then picked it up, pondered, and said with joy: "It is indeed a 'Full Dan' magic tool. It has a long history. Saying it is a magic tool is also a magic tool, and saying it is a legacy is more like a legacy... It is indeed quite ancient."

She held this mercury drop in her palm, and her magic power poured into it. Then she saw silver light appear, and it had actually been received into her Qi sea.

"The refining is so fast!"

Li Que Wan closed her eyes and felt it for a breath, saying softly: "This magic tool is a treasure for internal cultivation, deposited in the Dantian, which can assist in casting spells, and also has the effect of clearing the spirit and invigorating the spirit. When necessary, it can also serve as a medium for 'Full Dan' changes."

"Attached is a magic formula, called 【Cheng Lu Xue Yin Miao Jue】, which is an ancient demonic skill that collects blood energy and combines it with lead and mercury to form Dan..."

The status of this skill was obviously very awkward. Li Que Wan sighed:

"In terms of saving life alone, this technique is only one step worse than my 【Scattered White Falling Feathers】. It is a pity that it is a demonic skill. Although there are several magic techniques that can be used, the entire Daoist lineage is naturally of no benefit to my family."

"As for the magic tool itself, it can be taken out to fight the enemy, or it can be used to save life... For my family, the magic tool itself has value."

Li Xuanxuan heard this and just sighed: "It is useful. It is just that although the Helian family is declining, with strong enemies watching, they still have Zifu cultivators. It is better not to let them recognize it."

Li Que Wan nodded slightly. This thing existed in the Dantian, not hanging on the waist, so it was not so easy to recognize. Moreover, it was not known whether this thing belonged to the Helian family or was obtained by Helian Changguang himself. Let's accept it first and ask about the affairs of Jiangbei.

Li Jiangqian said it briefly and frowned:

"As for the matter of Second Uncle being killed, the Duxian Dao sent someone to clarify. The one sent was Gongsun Bafan. Guan Gongxiao was very nervous about this matter and wrote several letters to defend himself. It does not look like it was done by the Duxian Dao."

"My previous thoughts... you leaving seclusion is the best thing, so as not to get involved in this matter. Now that you have left seclusion, I have also tested that the talisman seed is indeed effective, so I will tell you."

He had a gloomy face and replied:

"A few months ago, Second Uncle was killed, and True Person Tinglan did not show any traces for a long time. I suspect that the affairs of Jiangbei are gradually becoming wrong. You are good at witchcraft and are also a Zifu seed. Please refer to it."

Li Que Wan had been in seclusion all day and was very unfamiliar with this second uncle. She just sighed and immediately raised her head to ask:

"Are there any bones left?"

Li Jiangqian shook his head heavily. Li Que Wan felt it was difficult to handle and asked: "Are there any descendants? Try it with essence blood... This method is not very accurate, and there is a possibility of misjudgment."

Mentioning this, Li Xuanxuan immediately stroked his beard and said:

"I will go down and take it."

The old man went out from the side. Li Jiangqian then whispered:

"Wan'er, do what you can, don't hurt yourself."

Li Jiangqian was clearly afraid that this matter involved Zifu and would have any influence on Li Que Wan. Li Xuanxuan valued family affection, and Li Jiangqian did not say such words in front of him. But in the eyes of this Li family Patriarch, Li Que Wan, this Zifu seed, was the most important. As for others, whether they were mortals or immortal cultivators, if they died, they died, and it was nothing more than a loss of size.

Then Li Que Wan replied softly: "No problem, my witchcraft is mysterious, and I have a talisman seed on my body. Unless I go to calculate Zifu face to face, it is not a matter."

The two waited for a while, and Li Xuanxuan had already taken a small bottle of essence blood back. Li Que Wan took out three ivory tokens from her sleeve, each standing on one side, and placed the essence blood in them. She pondered for three breaths, pulled out a token from it, and repeated it nine times.

She organized it, the magic power brilliance on her body slowly dimmed, her face turned slightly pale, and she said solemnly: "One-nine revenge, burned by the fire of the East, so there are no bones."

Hearing this, Li Jiangqian sneered, and Li Que Wan said tactfully:

"Second Uncle... or Second Uncle's direct relatives, should have been burned by the fire virtue Daoist lineage of the East, and nine times out of nine, representing that this matter is widely known, nine times the same, representing that no Zifu divine ability was involved, it is a disaster of revenge, and it is a blood feud of life and death..."

This was almost pointing directly at Chijiao Island. Li Jiangqian pressed one hand on the main seat, and his heart gradually became clear. He stroked it twice and whispered: "Widely known, what a widely known."

"It is Guo Hongjian... It was Chijiao Island that took action, widely known... I am afraid that when passing through Xianhu and Muquan Sect, they were all deliberately let go."

Li Jiangqian was very clear and sneered: "My family has a great feud of life and death with Chijiao Island. If I were Guan Gongxiao, even if I were very friendly with Chijiao, I would definitely not say the tacit understanding between the two families. The news in the East Sea must be that my two families are fighting."

"So this bastard couldn't wait, went to inquire within the sea, and found that the two families were just confronting each other on the river, without any major casualties, so he was very anxious in his heart, secretly harmed my family's people, wanting the two families to fight fiercely, so that the Guan family could completely lean toward Chijiao."

"He really has a good idea."

Li Que Wan put away the three tokens and said solemnly: "If Second Uncle's ancestors were not killed by Tianwu Tianwu Binghuo, then this result refers to Second Uncle, and it is undoubtedly Chijiao Island."

Li Jiangqian whispered:

"As for what you said about no Zifu divine ability involved, it is indeed correct. After all, this area is very sensitive, but it is possible that several Zifu acquiesced to this matter. They could not see the tacit understanding between my two families. Either they think it is better for my two families to fight, or... there is another temptation."

Li Jiangqian breathed out, hurried down, pushed the hall door out, and said solemnly: "Go and invite Ziyan..."

Who knew that before his voice fell, a piece of galloping true fire fell in the sky, but Li Minggong drove the true fire and landed in front of the hall urgently, his tone with urgency, saying solemnly:

"No need."

"Qianlizi of Ziyan Sect has arrived at the lake, naming to see the Patriarch of the Li family!"

Li Jiangqian's heart suddenly thumped, looked at the few people around him, and replied:

"Please come in."

He just ordered it, and after a few breaths, he saw a woman with extremely beautiful appearance and wearing a white immortal robe arrive in front of the hall, with a glass-white jade bottle tied around her waist. It was the pride of this generation of Ziyan Sect—【Li Baoping】 Qianlizi.

This Qianlizi not only acted as the head of the sect but was also the master of Li Quexi, a direct descendant of the Li family!

But now she had a cold expression, her eyes were slightly anxious, and her eyes locked on Li Jiangqian, whispering: "Please borrow a step to talk."

Once this was said, Li Jiangqian felt even worse, waved the people around, and as soon as the hall door was closed, this Qianlizi actually stepped forward and said anxiously: "Does the Patriarch have a way to contact True Person Zhaojing?!"

Li Jiangqian hesitated slightly. The other party obviously realized that his words were shocking. It was not polite to ask so directly. The anxiety on his face slowed down slightly, and he whispered: "Patriarch, don't blame me for being reckless. Our True Person is missing north of Jiangbei and has not returned yet. The blessed land has sent people to various solar Daoist lineages for help. True Persons Zhu Gong and Kuiqi have gone to Jiangbei for rescue... I hope... the True Person of your clan can temporarily put the overall situation first and sit in Jiangbei."

'Jiangbei really had an accident!'

Qianlizi could be said to be extremely low in posture. She was one person below and ten thousand people above in the blessed land. A dignified solar Daoist lineage could come to this place to ask with such grievances, which shows how embarrassing the situation is.

But Li Jiangqian listened to her words blankly, and a chill rose in his heart. He walked down from the main seat in two steps and asked:

"This... they... True Monarch matter, this is the order of Luoxia!"

Qianlizi lowered her head and said nothing, as if she did not hear the words in his mouth. Li Jiangqian immediately put away his expression, and the doubts before him immediately had an explanation, like thunder:

'Chijiao Island... Is the matter of Chijiao Island a temptation to see if my family's True Person has returned, or a temptation to see if True Person Ziyu is missing?!'

He then asked:

"How did True Person Qiuhu instruct!"

Compared to the news in Qianlizi's mouth, Li Jiangqian was obviously more interested in the news at the Zifu level. Asking like this, Qianlizi lowered her head slightly and sighed:

"Did not wait for the True Person's news."

This sentence has more meanings. Ning Wan has no confidant in Qingchi Sect like Qianlizi. It is said that the sect master Dantai Jin is still kept in the dark!

Once Tinglan and Ning Wan leave Xianhu, it means that the affairs on both sides of the river have fallen into darkness. The affairs of the True Monarch of Luoxia Mountain will naturally not be delayed, but without divine abilities to control, it is not guaranteed that the forces along the river will not be involved! And once Ning Wan leaves, Li Quantao on Xianhu is like a small boat in the wind and rain, at the mercy of the waves.

Li Jiangqian had to say:

"What about Wanyu Sword Sect? What about Hengzhu Dao!"

A trace of helplessness flashed on Qianlizi's exquisite face, shaking her head: "Wanyu Sword Sect... Senior Senior Ling Mei had instructions early on. The affairs of Jiangbei have never been participated in by the Sword Sect. As for Hengzhu Dao... don't mention it!"

Mentioning Hengzhu, her expression was complex, both disappointed and anxious. It was clear that she had suffered a very embarrassing loss in this matter. Even if she mentioned it now, she was still a bit indignant.

Li Jiangqian was silent for a moment, watching Qianlizi's expression change from anxiety to suspicion. Seeing that he could not delay any longer, he finally heard this woman say with a bit of tactful sadness: "The affairs of Jiangbei, our True Person gave orders early on, to protect your clan, not to let the immortal carriage cross the river. Now the True Person is missing, this matter is strange, and it is not to ask the True Person of your clan to go to the rescue, just to ask him to return early to preside over the overall situation!"

"This matter is not my family's matter. After crossing the river, it is also Wangyue Lake. Now that I cannot contact the two True Persons, leaving Zifu, the many deployments in Jiangbei are all empty words. How can this be!"

Li Jiangqian's reaction was extremely fast, and he was not disrupted by her series of questions. He sighed in his heart, and his doubts rose:

'Qingsong solar Daoist lineage... How many Zifu in Jiangnan, even if Hengzhu does not take action, can't they point out one to stand in Jiangbei to preside? Just have to invite my family's True Person back?'

He stared at the other party deeply and said solemnly:

"Senior Han... can the adults of the various solar Daoist lineages not preside over the overall situation? Is it just missing, do the adults need to go together? You should answer the junior sincerely, True Person Tinglan... is it really missing?"

Qianlizi was stunned for a moment, and was actually asked by him. She re-examined the man in front of her. This woman gritted her teeth and replied:

"This matter... should not have been said much, but since Fellow Daoist asked like this, I have to answer."

"In my blessed land... the soul lamp is dim. There must be a great battle in the North. True Person Zhu Gong and True Person Kuiqi have to take action, I don't know what the state will be in the end... It is difficult to return to this place to guard. True Person Houfu is unable to separate himself in the Long territory... If the True Person of your clan does not return, there is no one to suppress the scene above."

It is impossible for Luoxia Mountain not to know about such a critical moment, Li Jiangqian's face was ugly, and he asked:

"Which force, dare to be so rampant? The True Person of the solar Daoist lineage, actually... ambushed by others outside..."

Qianlizi's expression was even more complex, and her voice lowered, replying: "I suspect it is the disaster left by 【Qiwang Xuantian Ting】... At that time, it was Qingchi and Ziyan who joined forces to calculate, and the elders of your clan participated in it... Now that the two Great True Persons have fallen one after another, the North has ideas!"

Li Jiangqian heard this and let out a long breath. The woman in front continued:

"Furthermore, there is no Zifu in the sky, are you really at ease with the Fei family's affairs?"

Li Jiangqian was silent.

It is impossible for his own dignified immortal clan not to have the means to remind Li Ximing. He definitely could not fool the Ziyan Sect people who had seen a lot. He could only say solemnly: "The junior has no other intentions, it is just that I am young, this matter is not in my hands, it is still necessary to invite the elders to discuss together!"

Qianlizi was suffocated, took a step back, gritted her teeth: "Please make a decision quickly!"

Li Jiangqian had just taken a step, but the two raised their heads together, faintly hearing the vibration from afar. Both were Foundation Establishment cultivators, how could they not notice this subtle sound? They looked at each other and hurriedly left the hall.

Sure enough, the lake was already pouring with heavy rain, and cultivators stood in the clouds blocking the sky. Li Que Wan and others were looking at the North with worried faces.

Then he saw a golden light in the northern sky rushing straight to the sky, and blurred dust floated up, vaguely condensing dark clouds, rain drifting, dark and shocking.

'The direction of 【Huaihun Hall】, Foundation Establishment fell... even more than one Foundation Establishment fell...'

"Where is Qu Bushi!"

He turned his head with a gloomy color, but found that Qianlizi beside him was staring at the North blankly, her fists clenched, trembling like fear, and like excitement, her beautiful eyes staring at the North, her two lips whispering silently.

Looking at this scene, Li Jiangqian felt cold all over. He had long guessed that this one had a deep entanglement with the True Monarch, but he did not know if it was the same one. He hurriedly retreated one step, did not look at her eyes, and shouted: "Senior!"
