Chapter 302 The Secret of the Ancient Scripture
Heisha wanted to enter the Netherworld the most, because his son was still in the Netherworld.
But his strength was too weak. Now the three-headed black eagle and other ghosts in the Netherworld were guarding the edge of the passage between the two worlds. Once he entered the Netherworld, he would definitely be discovered by the three-headed black eagle and other ghosts.
Not to mention the three-headed black eagle that had been promoted to the fourth level, he was not even a match for those three-headed black eagles that had reached the perfect third level.
After learning about the current situation in the Netherworld, Lu Chengan did not say anything more.
He now had the idea of entering the Netherworld to explore, but Qingzhou was not peaceful now, so he did not dare to enter the Netherworld to take risks.
If something happened to him, the Lu family and the Danding Sect would be in danger of destruction.
Luo Sheng and other ghosts were very fast. Not long after they left Heisha's mansion, they returned to Heisha's mansion with the materials that Lu Chengan needed.
Unfortunately, the resources in the Netherworld River were limited, and the materials in the hands of Luo Sheng and other ghosts were all of the third level.
After Lu Chengan collected the materials in the hands of Luo Sheng and other ghosts, he found that there were four materials for refining the Yinming Soul-Breaking Needle.
Now the Yinming Soul-Breaking Needle is of no use to him, but if it is in the hands of a Jindan cultivator, it is a great weapon.
After Lu Chengan collected these materials, he did not stay in the Nether River for long.
After he left the Nether River, he went directly back to the Lu family.
During the time Lu Chengan was away, the Lu family had undergone great changes.
After the continuous efforts of Lu Jingkun, Lu Chengping and other Lu family cultivators, the immortal city proposed by Lu Wenxing has been basically completed.
The power of the Nine-Star Thunder Refining God Array has also increased again, including the immortal city that is about to be completed.
Of course, these are only the power outside the Nine-Star Thunder Refining God Array. Although this power also has extremely strong defensive capabilities, it is far inferior to the power of the Nine-Star Thunder Refining God Array in the Lu family mountain gate.
After Lu Chengan returned to the Lu family from the Netherworld River, he first listened to Lu Wenxing's talk about the current situation of the Lu family, and then he returned to his cave and began to refine the Yinming Soul-Breaking Needle.
The Yinming Soul-Breaking Needle is the biggest trump card of Shi Ningyu and Sha Zehan of the Ziyang Sect in the competition for the inheritance of the Shenyu Sect. Now that the ruins of the Shenyu Sect are about to be opened again, Lu Chengan is ready to refine the Yinming Soul-Breaking Needle first.
The grade of the Yinming Soul-Breaking Needle is the third-grade top grade. Lu Chengan was able to refine this kind of magic weapon when he was in the Jindan realm. Now that his cultivation has broken through to the Yuanying realm, it is even easier to refine the Yinming Soul-Breaking Needle.
Lu Chengan is now refining the Yinming Soul-Breaking Needle much faster. It took him more than half a year to refine all the four materials into the Yinming Soul-Breaking Needle.
When Lu Chengan refined the Yinming Soul-Breaking Needle, Shi Ningyu was already in seclusion digesting the gains from the previous dual cultivation.
Lu Chengan did not disturb Shi Ningyu's practice. He put away the Yinming Soul-Breaking Needle, and then began to study the Sui Gu Zhenjing that he had just obtained from the Huanggu Sect in the cave.
Of course, what Lu Chengan wanted to do now was to practice supernatural powers, sacrifice his life magic weapon, and quickly improve his strength.
It's a pity that whether it's practicing supernatural powers or refining magic weapons, fourth-level materials are required, and he doesn't have these fourth-level materials now.
There are a total of four supernatural powers recorded in the Earth Flame Zhenjing. Wanyan Burning Sky Palm and Earth Flame Wanxiang Body have been practiced to perfection by him. He has not yet started to practice the two supernatural powers, Xingyan Hidden Escape Technique and Guiyuan Fire Evil Seal.
The grades of Lu Chengan's life magic weapon Earth Flame Purple Gold Bell and the magic weapon Seven Birds Divine Fire Fan are still at the third-level extreme. If he wants to upgrade the grades of these two life magic weapons to the fourth level, he needs a large number of fourth-level materials.
"I wonder when the trade fair between Yuanying cultivators mentioned by True Lord Kushi will start?"
Lu Cheng'an frowned slightly, and couldn't help but think of the trade fair between Yuanying cultivators mentioned by True Lord Kushi.
The last time Lu Cheng'an met True Lord Kushi, he wanted to exchange some materials for practicing magical powers and refining magic weapons with True Lord Kushi.
The Huanggu Sect has been passed down for many years, and there are also some fourth-level materials stored in the sect's treasury. However, Lu Cheng'an's luck is bad. The fourth-level materials stored in the Huanggu Sect do not have what Lu Cheng'an needs.
That's why True Lord Kushi told Lu Cheng'an about the trade fair between Yuanying cultivators.
This kind of trade fair between Yuanying cultivators involves all Yuanying cultivators in Qingzhou and Hezhou. If you can't exchange the treasures you need at the trade fair, it will basically be difficult to find the treasures you need again.
Unless you leave the territory of Qingzhou and Hezhou and go to Lianzhou, Yuanzhou and other territories.
It is also difficult for Yuanying cultivators to go to the immortal world of these states.
However, the cold and gloomy air in the Netherworld River had no effect on Lu Chengan. If he went to Yuanzhou and Lianzhou, it would be much easier.
Lu Chengan had not yet planned to go to Yuanzhou Xiuxian to find the fourth-level materials he needed. He planned to wait until he participated in the trade fair held by the Yuanying cultivators in Qingzhou and Hezhou.
He now had some fourth-level materials in his hands, as well as finished fourth-level magic tools and magic treasures.
These were all inherited from the Burning Flame Sect.
However, those fourth-level magic tools and magic treasures were not very suitable for him. He still wanted to upgrade the grade of the Earth Flame Purple Gold Bell and the Seven Birds Divine Fire Fan to the fourth level.
After a while, Lu Chengan suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his mind and began to check the practice method of the Sui Gu Zhenjing.
Sui Gu Zhenjing was the inherited practice method of the Huanggu Sect. As True Lord Ku Shi said, Sui Gu Zhenjing was indeed very difficult to comprehend.
At this time, Lu Chengan's attribute panel came into play, but what puzzled Lu Chengan was that the Sui Gu Zhen Jing did not appear in the column of the skills, but appeared in the skill column.
Moreover, the name of the Sui Gu Zhen Jing on the skill column was not Sui Gu Zhen Jing, but Qian Sui Yin and Jing Gu Yin.
The panel also gave a relatively detailed introduction to these two seals. If a cultivator is hit by the magical power of Qian Sui Yin, a certain amount of life will be reduced.
This reduction is a real reduction, and there is no possibility of recovery.
Jing Gu Yin is an auxiliary magical power, but Lu Chengan feels that this magical power is more terrible than the reduction of life by Qian Sui Yin.
Because under the Jing Gu Yin, time will stop passing, and the cultivators covered by the power of this magical power will be motionless during that time.
The battle between Yuanying cultivators is extremely dangerous. Even if it is just a moment of stillness, they will be killed by the enemy.
"Thousand Years Seal? Tranquility Seal? Is there something wrong with the cultivation of the Ancient Wilderness Sect?"
Lu Cheng'an frowned tightly. The Ancient Sui Sutra is the inherited practice of the Ancient Wilderness Sect.
The Ancient Wilderness Sect has a long history. During this period, I don't know how many cultivators in the Nascent Soul Realm have comprehended the Ancient Sui Sutra, but none of them have discovered the true secret of the Ancient Sui Sutra.
"If it weren't for the panel, I wouldn't have discovered the true secret of the Ancient Sui Sutra!"
Lu Cheng'an couldn't help but sighed when he thought that it was the panel that decomposed the secret of the Ancient Sui Sutra.
Then he suppressed the strange thoughts in his heart and began to extract the cultivation magic weapons of the Thousand Years Seal and the Tranquility Seal from the Ancient Sui Sutra according to the introduction on the panel.
The panel only told Lu Cheng'an that the Ancient Sui Sutra was not a practice, but a magical power, and briefly introduced the two magical powers that were decomposed.
But it did not extract the practice method at the same time, which required Lu Cheng'an to extract the practice method of these two magical powers from the practice of the Ancient Sui Sutra.
Lu Chengan knew that the ancient scripture contained the two magical powers of the Thousand Years Seal and the Quiet Ancient Seal, which provided him with a general direction so that he would not be like a headless fly.
The Thousand Years Seal and the Quiet Ancient Seal both involved the power of time that Lu Chengan had never touched before.
The power of time and the power of space are both very mysterious powers. Even with Lu Chengan's talent, his progress was very slow when he first came into contact with the magical power involving the power of time.
However, Lu Chengan did not feel anxious. With the help of the power of the panel, he had found the direction of cultivation. As long as he was willing to spend time, he would definitely be able to successfully cultivate these two magical powers.
The Thousand Years Seal and the Quiet Ancient Seal are very different from the magical powers that Lu Chengan had cultivated before. Cultivating these two magical powers does not require the assistance of spiritual objects. As long as the cultivator comprehends the secrets of the magical powers, they can be cultivated successfully.
There is no time for cultivation. Soon, more than ten years have passed. At this time, there are only less than two years left before the opening of the ruins of the Divine Jade Sect.
Shi Ningyu, who had been in seclusion for a long time, finally came out at this time. She was ready to set off for the ruins of the Shenyu Sect.
Lu Chengan had been paying attention to Shi Ningyu's situation. When he knew that Shi Ningyu had come out of seclusion, he immediately entered Shi Ningyu's cave.
"You should sacrifice all four sets of Yinming Soul-breaking Needles. When you succeed in sacrificing these four sets of Yinming Soul-breaking Needles, I will take you to the ruins of the Shenyu Sect." Lu Chengan said.
Sha Zehan was born in Ziyang Sect, which has a total of five Yuanying realm cultivators.
In the two previous openings of the ruins of the Shenyu Sect, the high-level cultivators of Ziyang Sect did not show up.
This is mainly because for Ziyang Sect, foundation-building spiritual objects and elixir-forming spiritual objects are not particularly precious in Ziyang Sect, and are not enough to attract the attention of high-level cultivators of Ziyang Sect.
This time when the ruins of the Shenyu Sect are opened, there will be treasures that assist in condensing the Yuanying. Even a Yuanying sect like Ziyang Sect will definitely attach great importance to it.
Especially now is the critical time for Shengyang Sect to launch an attack on them. If a new Yuanying realm cultivator appears in Ziyang Sect at this time, it will be of great significance to Ziyang Sect.
Lu Chengan thinks that when the ruins of Shenyu Sect are opened, Ziyang Sect is likely to send a Yuanying realm cultivator to accompany Sha Zehan.
Shenyu Sect has a set of rules for selecting successors. Lu Chengan is not sure whether Ziyang Sect's Yuanying cultivators have the ability to break the rules of Shenyu Sect.
But if they have this ability, the situation will be very unfavorable for them.
"Four sets of Yinming Soul-breaking Needles? How can Brother An refine so many?" Shi Ningyu asked in surprise.
She knew the power of Yinming Soul-breaking Needles. After all, she had used this magic weapon to injure the Yuanying of a Yuanying cultivator.
"During your retreat, I went to the Netherworld River Region..."
Lu Chengan briefly told Shi Ningyu what he did in the Netherworld River Region, and then asked Shi Ningyu to hurry up and refine these four sets of Yinming Soul-breaking Needles.
Shi Ningyu didn't bother to be polite with Lu Cheng'an. After she took the four sets of Yinming Soul-Breaking Needles from Lu Cheng'an, she returned to her cave again.
"If Ningyu's trip to the ruins of the Divine Jade Sect goes smoothly, then our ability to protect ourselves will be greatly improved!"
Lu Cheng'an looked at Shi Ningyu's closed cave and couldn't help but sigh.
Qingzhou, Hezhou and Taizhou have been very peaceful in the past ten years. The Holy Heart Sect has not launched any attacks on the Yuanying Sects in these two states.
But everyone knows that the cultivators of the Holy Heart Sect are waiting for the return of the Butterfly Transformation Demon King in the Hong'e Mountains.
After Lu Cheng'an exchanged his skills with the Ancient Sect, his relationship with the Ancient Sect became much closer.
He learned from the Ancient Sect that the Butterfly Demon King might come back at any time.
Although the Butterfly Demon King has not returned to the Hong'e Mountains, the Saint Heart Patriarch has already contacted the Butterfly Demon King.
Now they have reached a cooperation agreement. Once the Butterfly Demon King returns to the Hong'e Mountains, he will lead the monsters of the Hong'e Mountains and the Saint Heart Sect to attack the immortal cultivation forces in Qingzhou and Taizhou.
The Ancient Sect has been shrinking its power over the years. They are doing their best to assist the True Lord Qiongmiao to break through his cultivation.
The True Lord Qiongmiao is practicing a fourth-level water-attributed technique. There are not many such techniques in the Ancient Sect. The only fourth-level technique is the one that the True Lord Qiongmiao is practicing.
After the True Lord Qiongmiao's cultivation broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm, he relied on the Ancient Sect and his own strength to collect two more fourth-level water-attributed techniques.
However, these two fourth-level water-attributed techniques can only be practiced to the early and middle stages of the Nascent Soul, which is not particularly helpful to the True Lord Qiongmiao.
In order to find high-level water-attributed skills, True Lord Qiongmiao and the Ancient Wilderness Sect made great efforts.
They found out that the Burning Flame Sect had a fourth-level water-attributed skills inheritance, so they took the initiative to propose to exchange skills with Lu Chengan after knowing that the Lu family might get the inheritance of the Burning Flame Sect.
They did not think of forcing Lu Chengan to hand over the inheritance of the Burning Flame Sect, mainly because of the existence of the Holy Heart Sect.
They also have a certain understanding of Lu Chengan's strength.
When Lu Chengan just broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm, he killed True Lord Tianhuang, who was also in the Nascent Soul Realm. His strength was extremely powerful.
It was not an easy task for them to suppress or kill Lu Chengan.
And once Lu Chengan escaped, he would most likely enter the Holy Heart Sect.
The Ancient Wilderness Sect believed that with the ability shown by Lu Chengan, once he entered the Holy Heart Sect, he would definitely be reused by the Holy Heart Sect.
At that time, the Holy Heart Sect would attack the Nascent Soul Sects in Qingzhou and Hezhou again, and the probability of their Ancient Wilderness Sect's destruction would also be greatly increased.
It is for this reason that the Ancient Desolate Sect adopted a conciliatory policy and used tough measures.
After obtaining the two fourth-level water-attributed exercises, the Black Water Sutra and the Sea Mirage Rainbow Sutra, True Lord Qiong Miao has been concentrating on comprehending them.
Her subsequent cultivation was relatively smooth. Now that she has gained some insights, it won't be long before she can break through to the Nascent Soul Perfection Realm. (End of this chapter)
