Chapter 160

After calming down, many things became clear!

For example, why the old man wanted to set up that Nine Yang Array some time ago.

He Pingsheng didn't know before.

But now, he had some guesses.

The Nine Yang Array could dispel yin evil.

This was what the old man said himself.

Then the question arose: such a large Tai Xu Divine Hall had been used for hundreds of years, when had there ever been yin evil?

Where was there yin evil?

Why dispel yin evil?

It was here!

Possession!

Possession is a yin evil matter; if not blocked, the yin energy would rush straight out from the Tai Xu Divine Hall.

By then, all the disciples of the entire Tai Xu Men would know that the ancestor was performing possession!

How bad would that influence be?

And now, with the Nine Yang Array, all the escaping yin energy would vanish.

So that was the function of the Nine Yang Grand Array!

Also!

In the left side hall, the old man had prepared all kinds of elixirs, from Foundation Establishment Stage to Nascent Soul Stage, everything was complete except for the Transformation-Breaking Pill.

He originally thought they were really prepared for him, He Pingsheng.

Now it seemed, they were not at all!

They were prepared for himself.

Why?

Because after the ancestor performed possession, his cultivation would inherit He Pingsheng's cultivation, and at that time he would only be at the first layer of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

And he was a five-element Void Linggen, so cultivation must rely on elixirs.

That's why he prepared so many elixirs.

This old, undead old thing!

Damn it!

He kept talking about his own benevolence and morality, saying he wouldn't possess anyone, and wouldn't pass the terrifying Tai Xu Great Profound Scripture to his own son.

No wonder he didn't pass it to his biological son!

It turned out he wanted to do this insidious deed himself.

Right!

This old thing must have mastered the 【Tai Xu Great Profound Scripture】, but he wasn't a five-element Void Linggen, so how could he master this Great Profound Scripture?

He Pingsheng thought of it; he had said before that cultivators who are not five-element Void Linggen who want to master the Great Profound Scripture must swallow the Void Linggen of a five-element Void Linggen cultivator.

This...

Which meant this old thing had swallowed someone else's Void Linggen before.

He was never a good person at all.

Leave...

Escape!

Must escape.

And as soon as possible.

But the problem arose.

How to escape?

He Pingsheng lay on his cushion and began to think carefully.

He couldn't escape blindly.

Running away in a panic, wouldn't that be like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth?

The terror of a great Nascent Soul Stage cultivator is something others cannot imagine.

A detailed plan must be made!

He Pingsheng closed his eyes and thought carefully.

One day!

Two days!

Three days!

After thinking for a full three days, a plan that could be called perfect was thought up by He Pingsheng.

He walked out of the main hall and turned into a stream of light, landing on Show Bamboo Peak!

It was the 【True Spirit Hall】 again.

"Junior Brother, what urgent matter is it? Tell me quickly, you're worrying me to death..." Zhao Linger was impatient when she heard He Pingsheng say it was a life-or-death matter.

He Pingsheng didn't reveal it, only saying: "Go and call Xu Kunlun over, then I'll talk about it!"

"Okay!"

Zhao Linger ran out again and called Xu Kunlun into the True Spirit Hall.

He closed the door of the main hall and opened all the arrays.

"Don't worry!" The withered arm stretched out and patted He Pingsheng's shoulder a few times. The old man said gently: "Even if you have an immortal-level magic treasure on you, I won't be jealous anymore!"

"These things are useless to me now!"

"Hehehe..."

He Pingsheng nodded.

If Tai Xu is really at the ninth layer, then indeed nothing matters anymore.

He is about to die; no matter how good a treasure you give him, it's impossible for him to break through from the ninth layer of the Nascent Soul stage to the Soul Transformation stage in a few decades.

After all, there are three small realms and one big realm in between.

"Come, give me a hand!"

"See that? There is a small door behind!"

"Let's go out through this small door and bask in the sun!"

Tai Xu was like an ordinary old man without any cultivation. With He Pingsheng's support, he walked bit by bit to the back door behind the hall.

Going out through the back door, there was a garden behind it.

No, it should be said, it was a spirit plant garden.

Many spirit herbs were planted in this courtyard.

There were first-tier ones, and there were second-tier ones.

As for whether there were third-tier ones, He Pingsheng didn't know, because even if he saw them, he wouldn't recognize them and couldn't distinguish them.

Biyun Laozu Tai Xu walked under a huge old tree!

There was a lounge chair under the old tree. He lay on the lounge chair, slowly closed his eyes and said: "Everything in this world is Yin and Yang, light and dark!"

"Life is like this too!"

"Human nature is like this too!"

"Take this Linggen for example!"

The Biyun Laozu closed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice: "These cultivators with four Linggens, and cultivators like you with Five-Element Linggens, are treated like dirt in the early stages of cultivation. Do you know why?"

"Because in their eyes, these are low-grade Linggens!"

"Why low-grade?"

"Because the cultivation speed is too slow, and it's very difficult to fill the spiritual energy!"

"However, the Heavenly Dao is fair!" The old man suddenly opened his eyes and looked at He Pingsheng: "Do you know how cultivation above the Nascent Soul stage is practiced?"

He Pingsheng shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Disciple is struggling even to break through the bottleneck at the Qi Condensation stage, so I know even less about the cultivation methods of Nascent Soul powerhouses!"

"Hmm!" Tai Xu said: "After a cultivator reaches the Nascent Soul stage, they not only need to fill the dantian, break through the flesh barrier, and accumulate spiritual power, but also make achievements in Daoist techniques!"

"Before breaking through each layer of cultivation, one must first break the Dao barrier, and then break the flesh barrier!"

"Do you know what a Dao barrier is?"

Wuwei stared at the few plaques in He Pingsheng's hand and said: "You aren't lying to me, are you?"

He Pingsheng said: "What could I lie to you about?"

"Lying to you to enter the Tai Xu Divine Hall and let the old man kill you?"

"Would the old man kill you?"

"You don't even have this much courage, do you?"

"Hahaha..." Wuwei laughed loudly: "Is there anything I don't dare to do?"

"He Pingsheng... just wait. If this succeeds, I'll let you continue being the little ancestor of the Tai Xu Men!"

"I'm off!"

Wuwei took the key to enter and exit the Tai Xu Divine Hall, turned into a beam of light, and landed on the plaza in front of the Tai Xu Divine Hall.

And at this time, He Pingsheng had long since flown away on his sword, then landed casually on some mountain peak, took out the 【Invisibility Talisman】, and slapped it on his body with a 'slap'.

Motionless!

His whole person immediately turned into nothingness.

And then it was waiting!

Patiently waiting.

Waiting for a message.

Originally, He Pingsheng predicted that this message would only arrive after half an hour, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

After the time of one incense stick, a signal light landed in front of him!

The signal light was sent by Xu Kunlun, and it only had one sentence on it: "I saw the ancestor..."

"Hoo..." He Pingsheng took a deep breath, then leaped up, jumped into the bottomless abyss from this nameless mountain peak, and then flew on his sword, flying in the opposite direction to Xu Kunlun.

He flew at a very low altitude, almost hugging the mountain range.

In this way, he wouldn't attract anyone's attention.

About fifty miles away from the Tai Xu Men, He Pingsheng gave up flying on his sword and directly flipped his hand to take out a cyan flying boat: Cloud-Piercing Boat!

'Click!'

'Click, click...'

Five spirit stones were embedded by him into the spirit stone card slot of the Cloud-Piercing Boat.

They were all mid-tier spirit stones!

Then the Cloud-Piercing Boat flew up at an incomparable speed, getting further and further away.

After flying for a full half-day, thinking that he must be ten thousand miles away from the Tai Xu Men, He Pingsheng finally heaved a sigh of relief.

The old thing hadn't chased after him.

The perfect plan, the escape was successful!
