Chapter 504
At this time, besides Tu Shan Ge, Qiao Qiwu of the Mishan Qiao clan was also a guest in the hall.
Because half a year ago, when Chen Heng invited the two aristocratic elders Xie Jing and Liu Fengye to eliminate the Qingshu Sect, Qiao Qiwu happened to be traveling with several good friends to the Tianbao Cave in the depths of the North Lu Province and missed that battle.
Although Qiao Qiwu knew that he did not deliberately avoid the battle, it was just a coincidence, but after thinking about it carefully, he still felt a bit sorry.
Because currently in Chen Heng's mansion, the only aristocratic elders who came to join were Xie Jing, Liu Fengye, and himself, Qiao Qiwu.
The others were either still wandering and watching, or had already entered someone else's mansion, or were secretly leaning toward their own clans.
Since among the three, Xie Jing and Liu Fengye had both set out, it was somewhat unreasonable for him to be the only one who hadn't arrived.
Therefore, after returning from Tianbao Cave, this person rushed to Changli Island to pay his respects at the first moment, just happening to see this scene in the hall.
And at this moment, Qiao Qiwu was indeed curious.
Because of Seven Qiao Rui, he considered himself to know Chen Heng's temperament to some extent.
What could move Chen Heng would certainly not be an ordinary small matter.
I don't know what kind of feat Yin Wuji had accomplished to attract such praise from Chen Heng?
Seeming to have guessed what Qiao Qiwu was thinking.
After reading it again, Chen Heng handed the jade slip in his hand casually and smiled:
"Yin Wuji has now succeeded and returned to the mountain. This person is a First Grade Jin Dan with a perfect inner scene, and as soon as he appeared in the world, he made a big article in the South Nan Chan Zhou Zhou."
Qiao Qiwu first stood up to thank him, then reached out to take it with some doubt.
And as soon as his gaze swept over the jade slip, his pupils suddenly contracted. For a moment, he didn't know what to say, just subconsciously frowning, his expression inexplicably a bit complicated.
"I wondered why there had been no news of Yin Wuji; it turns out this person went to the Yu Qi Heaven? And as soon as he returned to Xudu, he challenged Yu Huangshang of the Innate Xiantian Xiantian Mo Zong and even defeated him?!
This matter, this matter..."
After a while, Qiao Qiwu came back to his senses, but the expression on his face was still full of astonishment.
After muttering to himself for a while, his voice gradually lowered and finally stopped abruptly.
He just shook his head silently, his expression heavy.
Yu Huangshang—
First Grade Jin Dan, True Inheritor of the Innate Xiantian Xiantian Mo Zong, and also the unquestionable leader of the younger generation in the South Nan Chan Zhou Zhou!
And Qiao Qiwu's understanding of this veteran Jin Dan was far beyond anyone on Changli Island. As early as when Yu Huangshang first became a Jin Dan, Qiao Qiwu had witnessed this person's methods.
At that time, Qiao Qiwu had a close cousin named Qiao Yangzhi, who had extraordinary talent and was hailed as the hope of the Qiao clan. Even Qiao Ding had high expectations for him, repeatedly opening altars to perform the Dharma for him.
At that time, Qiao Yangzhi also considered himself the second Ji Fakai, having the heart to test his sword against the world and meet all the talents of the universe.
However, after a Dharma assembly, when he faced Yu Huangshang, who had just become a Jin Dan, everything became a field of emptiness.
To this day, Qiao Qiwu still clearly remembers how Qiao Yangzhi gradually became unable to support himself under Yu Huangshang's offensive.
And after five hundred moves, Yu Huangshang, who had already secured the victory, was not in a hurry to decide the outcome, but instead, like a cat catching a mouse, teased Qiao Yangzhi in front of the public, causing this Qiao clan talent to lose almost all his face.
Until he felt bored at the end, Yu Huangshang suddenly took action, severely injuring Qiao Yangzhi's Jin Dan, and completely destroyed his physical body, then left swaggeringly, not even looking at the other cultivators on the field.
Because there was a great cultivator of the Innate Xiantian Xiantian Mo Zong nearby at the time, Qiao Qiwu, who wanted to step forward to save him, was also firmly suppressed on his seat and could not move.
It wasn't until Yu Huangshang walked away that he was able to rush forward, but it was too late by then.
After the event, Qiao Yangzhi, whose physical body and Jin Dan were destroyed, had to helplessly reincarnate because his future path was ruined.
Although time has passed, Qiao Qiwu's hatred for Yu Huangshang has not been put down in the slightest, wanting to eat his flesh and sleep on his skin to vent the resentment in his heart.
However, even though he harbored killing intent toward Yu Huangshang, Qiao Qiwu never questioned this person's talent.
If it weren't for preparing for the Danyuan Assembly, I am afraid Yu Huangshang would have already achieved the Primordial Spirit and cultivated the supreme Dharma Form.
And if Qiao Qiwu had faced him at that time, I am afraid the outcome would definitely not have been better than Qiao Yangzhi's, and he would have been beaten to death by Yu Huangshang.
But Yin Wuji...
"First Grade Jin Dan, perfect inner scene, that's fine, but Yin Wuji clearly hasn't cultivated the Dao for long. How could he win against a veteran Jin Dan like Yu Huangshang?
It is said that the Xiantian Xiantian Mo Zong is rising now, and the destiny is prosperous.
But such a brilliant battle record is truly too astonishing!"
Qiao Qiwu sighed secretly, his thoughts in his mind were complicated, and he truly had all kinds of emotions in his heart.
One Ji Fakai, one Yin Wuji...
Although the aristocratic families have been suppressed by the sects from beginning to end and cannot make any waves, in the infinite years, there has been no lack of brilliant talents in the aristocratic families.
Like Liu Xiang of the North Pole Garden, Sima Changsheng of the God-Governing Sect, Xie Yuanchen of the Zhongtian Dou Shu Sect, and Qiao Yubi of the Zhongyi Sword Sect.
Although these people only achieved great success after joining the sects, they were ultimately of aristocratic origin.
But looking at the vast Mishan, in recent years, there has been no one in the younger generation who has made a name for themselves in the Nine Provinces, clearly showing a lack of successors.
Speaking of this.
Qiao Qiwu inevitably sighed...
And just as Qiao Qiwu was pondering silently, Chen Heng thought of what was stated in the jade slip and felt something in his heart.
The battle between Yin Wuji and Yu Huangshang, although the two deliberately moved the battlefield to the South Sea, was still glimpsed by those with intentions.
And according to the words on the jade slip, when Yu Huangshang sacrificed the Ji-Transformation Immortal Capital Profound Sand, Yin Wuji did not dodge or avoid it, using his physical body to resist the handful of profound sand.
As a practitioner of the Tai Su Jade Body, Chen Heng naturally knew exactly how much weight was in this behavior.
Based on his understanding of this wonderful secret, I am afraid Yin Wuji has already cultivated the Tai Su Jade Body to the limit of the Jin Dan, reaching the sixth layer of the Origin Realm one step ahead of him!
"After defeating Yu Huangshang, Yin Wuji should also be worthy of the name of the leader of the younger generation of the Xiantian Xiantian Mo Zong? It is interesting to meet such a strong enemy at the Danyuan Assembly!"
Chen Heng thought secretly, and a monstrous fighting spirit surged in his chest.
It was just that his eyelids were slightly covered at the right time, so he didn't show anything unusual on his face.
And Qiao Qiwu on the side had already come back to his senses.
He held the jade slip and looked at Chen Heng, who was calm on the side, wanting to speak but stopping, and finally held back his words.
"Forget it, with the True Person's ability, even if you can't defeat that Yin Wuji, winning the title of Danyuan champion, at least occupying a seat in the top five, should not be a difficult thing to do.
According to the rules of previous sessions, as long as you are in the top ten of Danyuan, there will be benefits bestowed. Even if the True Person doesn't get that Xudu Great Elixir, you will definitely not make a wasted trip!"
Qiao Qiwu nodded secretly, thinking in his heart.
After chatting for a few more sentences, Qiao Qiwu didn't stay long and soon rose to say goodbye sensibly.
Because the Danyuan Assembly was imminent, Chen Heng had also been in seclusion during this period and rarely appeared outside.
This time it was because Qiao Qiwu had sent a visiting card that he rarely came out of seclusion.
Since he knew the reason, Qiao Qiwu's visit to Changli Island was just to pay a visit and send some gifts, and he would naturally not disturb Chen Heng's cultivation.
However, when the two walked out of the hall, Qiao Qiwu's polite words to persuade Chen Heng to stay were still stuck in his throat, and Chen Heng's voice sounded before him.
He asked:
"I heard that Junior Sister Seven Qiao Rui recently returned to Mishan for seclusion?"
Qiao Qiwu was stunned when he heard this, and before Qiao Qiwu could sort out his thoughts, Chen Heng said again:
"May I ask if that 'Chongguang Mystic Realm' of your clan really has the effect of being reborn? Is the danger inside as rumored outside?"
Qiao Qiwu understood at this time. He suppressed the speculation in his heart, shook his head, and smiled bitterly:
"Does the True Person also know about Xiao Qiao entering the 'Chongguang Mystic Realm'?
To tell you the truth, when I first heard this news, I was also taken aback. Although my cousin has not neglected her cultivation, if you say she is obsessed with this path, that is really not the case.
I don't know why she suddenly changed her temperament, acting just like she was possessed by the devil, which surprised many people.
However, the Chongguang Mystic Realm..."
Qiao Qiwu shook his head at the end of his words.
According to him, this "Chongguang Mystic Realm" was personally created by the ancestor of the Mishan Qiao clan, Qiao Chongguang.
Although as rumored outside, anyone who can break through the mystic realm can get the benefit of washing the roots and increasing talent.
But this benefit is just icing on the cake and cannot play the role of being reborn at all.
In addition, the Chongguang Mystic Realm is indeed dangerous. If you are not careful, you will be trapped in a killing field, and your soul will sink.
As a result, it can be said that the payment is high and the reward is low, and because the risk is too great, even the Qiao clan members of Mishan rarely choose to take a trip to the Chongguang Mystic Realm.
"If the Chongguang Mystic Realm really had the ability to help people be reborn, to say something ugly, I am afraid this treasure would not be kept by our Qiao clan and would have been forcibly seized by others long ago."
Qiao Qiwu first smiled self-deprecatingly and then said:
"However, although the mystic realm is dangerous, wanting to exit is not a difficult thing. You only need to move your mind, which can be said to be free to come and go. After all, this is a place of training set by the ancestor for the younger generation of the Qiao clan, not a place of death.
Even if my cousin fails to cultivate in the mystic realm, she will not be in danger of her life. This point is fine."
After Chen Heng finished listening, he nodded.
He said:
"That's good."
And after bowing and saying goodbye to Qiao Qiwu, he stood in place for a while, then stood up and walked away, waving away the restrictions and re-entering the quiet room deep in the inner hall.
And time passed in a hurry, as if in the blink of an eye, spring departed and autumn returned once more.
This day, Chen Heng, who was sitting in the quiet room with his eyes closed, opened his eyes inexplicably.
He looked inside himself, silently operating the Dharma technique, and seeing that he was indeed only one step away, he took out a palm-sized, brilliant talisman covered with golden tadpole patterns from his sleeve bag and thought secretly:
"It is now!"
Because of the Zhonglang Catastrophe, Xudu has been lacking in heaven and earth since then, and the cultivators of the Eight Sects and Six Schools mostly regard Shaokang Mountain as an enemy.
And on the day Chen Heng entrusted someone to send Lu Shen's three heads to the Xiaoming Great Marsh, it also set off a small wave in the Nine Provinces for no reason.
Not only did the Yuchen main sect bestow benefits, but the other Profound Sects and Demon Sects also brought out elixirs, Dao books, and magic treasures to reward Chen Heng's merits.
The golden light talisman in Chen Heng's hand at this time was the reward from the Tai Fu Palace.
This talisman is named Mingjun Shangyang True Talisman, which is a treasure talisman evolved from the forty-nine Shangqing True Talismans of the Tai Fu Palace. It has the wonderful uses of eliminating disasters and diseases, supplementing spiritual truth, and nourishing tendons and meridians.
Even looking at the rewards sent by various sects, it is ranked in the upper class and is truly very precious.
And this Mingjun Shangyang True Talisman was personally selected for Chen Heng by Ancestor Fu Can.
This old man knew that Chen Heng was cultivating the Tai Su Jade Body and also knew how terrifying the demand of the Tai Su Jade Body for spiritual energy was.
Therefore, after hearing that Chen Heng defeated Lu Shen, he spent a lot of thought to specially select this true talisman for Chen Heng, intending to provide some help for Chen Heng's physical cultivation.
And having practiced the Tai Su Jade Body to this point, the collection in Chen Heng's treasury was almost consumed by ninety percent, and even the Heaven-Human Void White Elixir obtained from the Wonderful Treasure Land was used, but it was still one line short.
But with this Mingjun Shangyang True Talisman...
Chen Heng smiled slightly and decisively stuck the golden talisman on his forehead.
Just by operating his energy to guide it, he felt a vast and pure spiritual energy constantly pouring into the acupuncture points all over his body, continuous, surging like a tide, as if wanting to blow himself up alive!
Chen Heng's eyebrows moved, and he hurriedly held his mind, seizing the opportunity to refine this spiritual energy into his physical body so as not to really hurt his tendons and meridians.
And once this action started, a full month passed.
At this moment, as Chen Heng dispersed the Dharma technique, the luster of the Mingjun Shangyang True Talisman on his forehead suddenly dimmed.
With a light tremor, it turned into flying smoke and dissipated, never to return.
"Sixth layer of the Origin Realm, limit of the Jin Dan..."
Chen Heng exhaled a long breath and thought secretly.
After this breath was exhaled, the large quiet room trembled slightly, and the spiritual light of the restrictions slowly lit up, as if a dragon and elephant were moving its limbs inside, heavy and vast!
And after carefully observing the changes inside his body and entering the True Dharma Realm to test his hands, Chen Heng also re-collected his thoughts and continued to meditate.
But his seclusion this time did not last long.
Not many months later, a long and distant bell sound suddenly came, filling the ears, clearly issued from a very distant place, separated by vast seas and lands, but it seemed to be playing beside the ears, making people clearly audible.
A school of melodious heavenly sounds, unfathomable, difficult to describe.
That bell sound rolled over the vast Dongmi in an instant, startling countless cultivators, each with different expressions.
"Danyuan Assembly... three months left, is this to inform the territory that we can set off?"
Chen Heng was lost in thought and stood up out of the quiet room.
Just as he raised his head to look at the sky, a group of brilliant bright light also descended from the distant blue sky, treating the restrictions on the island as nothing, easily penetrating, and was caught in Chen Heng's palm.
"Is this thing the talisman for admission?"
Chen Heng looked at the small jade plaque in his hand and rubbed it, the touch like clouds and mist.
And it was not just Dongmi; almost at the same time the bell rang, the vast Nine Provinces and Four Seas were filled with this sound.
Repelled.
Heaven and earth responded accordingly, with flower rain falling, bright and clean, auspicious clouds and auspicious light, lingering endlessly for a while.
"It's finally time to set off. I wonder where the Danyuan Assembly will be held this time?"
South Sea, at a desert island.
Yin Wuji, who was originally sitting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes. He looked at the vast and magnificent vision in the clouds and smiled.
