Chapter 1198: Immortal Venerable, Can My Spiritual Root Still Be Saved?

"These young people these days, their mental fortitude isn't up to par, getting so easily worked up." Immortal Jiu Chong lightly shook his head, roughly guessing why Dai Bufan had fainted.

"Back in our ancient times, we stirred up wind and cloud, though we kept a low profile, Ying Tian Xian often dragged us out to display our immortal traces, I couldn't refuse, and the common folk were all immensely excited, paying homage and worship, even more like your senior brother here, who fainted from excitement."

Lu Yang thought to himself, you say your character is low-key—does that refer to celebrating your first ascension by, after the tribulation ended, spending countless heavenly treasures and earthly riches to create auspicious omens?

Seeing Dai Bufan, Immortal Jiu Chong recalled the beautiful times of antiquity, and couldn't help but reveal a hint of a smile.

"Today's matter shows that I and your senior brother have affinity; he just happens to be a water spiritual root, so I can bestow upon him a bit of opportunity."

Immortal Jiu Chong extended a finger, a point of spiritual light entered the unconscious Dai Bufan's glabella.

The water spiritual root belongs to Yin, within the scope of the Yin-Yang Dao Fruit.

"After he awakens, he will be more adept at using water-attribute spells."

Meng Jingzhou enviously gazed at his senior brother Dai, there's still such a good thing, and upon thinking of his own spiritual root, he immediately pitifully begged Immortal Jiu Chong.

"Immortal, do you see if my spiritual root can still be saved?"

"Your spiritual root?"

At first Immortal Jiu Chong didn't pay attention, but after carefully observing Meng Jingzhou, he slightly glanced sideways, hesitating as he spoke, unsure how exactly to describe: "Your spiritual root……is quite extreme."

"If I had known you in ancient times, I could have condensed the Yin-Yang Dao Fruit two days earlier."

Immortal Jiu Chong felt quite regretful, such a fine observation subject, how could I not have encountered him in antiquity?

Meng Jingzhou: "……"

"Can it still be saved?" Lu Yang asked on behalf of his good brother.

Immortal Jiu Chong pondered, such information about Meng Jingzhou he had never encountered before: "To say it can be saved, it actually can."

"How to save it?"

"I can reverse Yin and Yang, turning your pure Yang spiritual root into a pure Yin spiritual root……"

Meng Jingzhou was about to say that a pure Yin spiritual root isn't unacceptable either, when he heard Immortal Jiu Chong continue:

"After all, the spiritual root is closely related to the body; once it becomes a pure Yin spiritual root, your gender will also undergo a change."

"A change in temperament? Well, that might be acceptable……gender?"

Meng Jingzhou's words trailed off mid-sentence as he suddenly realized, this isn't right.

"I've heard that in history there were male cultivators with pure Yin spiritual roots, at most just having a effeminate temperament, how come with me it requires a sex change!"

"In history there hasn't been such an extreme pure Yang spiritual root as yours, again with dual pure Yang Jin Dan and dual pure Yang Nascent Soul, and even the Yang-strengthening Nirvana True Fire, I turning you into a pure Yin spiritual root is also an unprecedented pure Yin spiritual root."

"In our ancient times, how would we describe your situation, oh right, called bearing children and raising offspring."

Meng Jingzhou endured the pain and thought for a moment, feeling his pure Yang spiritual root is also quite good, at least after ascension he wouldn't need to suppress himself anymore.

Seeing Dai Bufan wouldn't wake up for a while, the three decided to leave the mission hall, and before departing Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou kindly moved the fallen Dai Bufan onto a chair.

This way, even if someone came looking for Dai Bufan, they would only assume he fell asleep from exhaustion handling sect affairs, and wouldn't suspect anything else.

After Dai Bufan woke up, he grimaced and rubbed the back of his head, what happened earlier?

Oh right, listening to Lu Shidi and Meng Shidi's report on the extreme northern lands.

"How come I feel that every time I finish meeting those two I just faint?"

"Lu Shidi and Meng Shidi are so nefarious, why don't I go to the Western Paradise Temple to pay respects?"

Soon Dai Bufan dismissed this thought, which Western Paradise Temple, Lu Yang has already ascended in the Buddha Kingdom, the Buddha Kingdom is like his backyard.

"And there's also the Heartless Sect matter, a bit troublesome, although the sect leader was executed, logically there should be many Heartless Sect followers in the extreme northern lands, this is hard to find."

Dai Bufan was about to drink water to moisten his throat, seeing the ripples in the teacup, he suddenly felt he had comprehended something, many prior difficulties in spellcraft were now readily solved, even his cultivation showed signs of fluctuation, he could break through at any moment.

"Strange, how did my comprehension suddenly become this good?"

……

Great Xia, Imperial City, Luo Shui Guard Headquarters.

The Luo Shui Guard specializes in resolving historical遗留 problems of Great Qian and Great Yu, as well as pursuing the Three Great Evil Sects.

Recently they have shifted their work focus to the Heartless Sect.

The Meng family captured many high-level Heartless Sect members in the Buddha Kingdom, and even captured a deputy sect leader, although these people don't know where the sect leader is, however the Luo Shui Guard has many constables from before, most skilled at analyzing clues through traces.

On the wall of the Luo Shui Guard hangs a cross-shaped world map, Yu Qian points at one section, firmly stating: "In summary, the Heartless Sect leader is most likely hiding in the Eastern Sea!"

Yu Qian, one of the Nine Palaces holding power in the Luo Shui Guard, previously acclaimed as one of the Four Great Divine Constables of the Imperial Capital, experienced, sharp-eyed, has cracked hundreds of difficult cases.

"What Old Yu says makes sense, our Great Xia investigates this strictly, Yang Sect Leader surely wouldn't dare hide in our Great Xia, the Buddha Kingdom has already conducted a joint operation, no trace of Yang Sect Leader, past demon realm chaos, Yang Sect Leader could still hide, but with the establishment of the Demon Kingdom, all clans are under the Demon Emperor's survival-of-the-fittest Dao Fruit embryonic form, he also has nowhere to hide."

"Based on past analysis of the Heartless Sect, the Heartless Sect most likes to take root in densely populated areas, while the extreme northern lands have few cities and few people, although the Eastern Sea has the Dragon Clan, it has never had a unified regime, governance has many loopholes, exactly the good place for Yang Sect Leader to lead the remnants to evade!"

The speaker is called Luo Changhe, ranked second among the Nine Palaces of the Luo Shui Guard, a seasoned Tribulation Transcendence stage expert, widely known in the markets, having once shocked Great Xia with the "Secret Party Rebellion Case" and "National Treasure Theft Case" etc., all solved single-handedly by him, subduing the criminals.

The other Nine Palaces all nodded, agreeing with the two views, to thoroughly resolve the Heartless Sect, they searched through cart after cart of case files for clues, working all night, eye sockets dark, mentally exhausted.

Know that they are all Unity Stage and Tribulation Transcendence stage great experts, able to tire them out like this, one can imagine the work intensity.

"His Majesty approaches——"

Xia Di arrived at the Luo Shui Guard Headquarters, the Nine Palaces all bowed deeply: "We pay our respects to Your Majesty."

Meanwhile they felt some puzzlement, His Majesty rarely comes to the Luo Shui Guard Headquarters, today why is this?

Xia Di noticed the desk covered in analysis draft papers, it seems they are analyzing the Heartless Sect matter.

"The remnants of the Heartless Sect are in the extreme northern lands, including Yang Sect Leader, even the Question Dao Sect has already clashed with Yang Sect Leader."

"What!"

The Nine Palaces stared at each other, Luo Changhe even couldn't help but ask: "How is this possible, we have grasped so much information, only preliminarily judged the Heartless Sect remnants to be in the Eastern Sea, he asked the Question Dao Sect relied on what to find Yang Sect Leader!"

Xia Di let out a long sigh: "By relying on the Question Dao Sect having Lu Yang."
