Sheng Qingjun's eyes showed self-blame. If she hadn't been so smart and thought she could control the demon soul, Xue'er wouldn't have fallen to that point...
Sheng Qingjun's follower is Shangguan Xue.
The evil spirit in Shangguan Xue's body had already been subdued.
But what Lady Sanchi left in her body was not only the demon soul, but also a rare demon seed.
After the civil strife broke out in the Xiaoyao Sect, a large number of disciples who were planted with evil spirits were controlled by the Three Idiot Goddesses, and Shangguan Xue was no exception.
After the demon seed in her body was detonated, the demonic energy came out from the inside out and entangled with the spiritual energy around her body.
Demonic energy and spiritual energy coexist in the body, and there are only two paths to go.
One is to disperse the power and start over again, the other is to abandon Taoism and practice magic.
After the demon seed in Shangguan Xue's body erupted, Sheng Qingjun subdued her. Originally, she wanted to wait until the civil unrest was settled before finding a way to help her expel the demon seed.
But by the time she had cleaned up the mess, Shangguan Xue had disappeared.
The remaining evil energy in the cave gave Sheng Qingjun a bad feeling.
Later, news came back that the Miaodan Sect had surrendered, and soon after, the evil cultivators attacked the Xiaoyao Sect.
Even though Sheng Qingjun was concerned about Shangguan Xue, she had no time to care about anything else.
To this day, more than eighty years have passed, and there is still no news of Shangguan Xue.
Yue Ling was trying to comfort him, "Master, don't blame yourself. Although Shangguan Xue doesn't like to talk much, she has a pure heart and won't go astray.
Who knows, maybe when she returns to the sect someday, her cultivation level will also shock you and me."
Sheng Qingjun knew that Yue Lingzheng's words were just to comfort her.
She forced a smile and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. I just checked and there are six spiritual veins in the Hunyuan Sect.
I have to quickly refine and extract the spiritual veins and bring them back to Xiaoyao Sect."
Yue Lingzheng nodded, "Only Nascent Soul cultivators can refine spirit veins. Thank you for your hard work, uncle."
Sheng Qingjun swept his spiritual sense across Hunyuan Sect and quickly selected a spiritual vein and began to refine it.
After Xu Chunniang cleared out the classics, she handed them over to Master Yue, and then led everyone to search several storehouses of Hunyuan Sect before finding a spiritual vein to refine.
With the ability of a Nascent Soul cultivator, he can only refine one spiritual vein at a time, and it will take a month.
It also takes a lot of effort to refine the spiritual vein and bring it back to Xiaoyao Sect.
Xu Chunniang's heart moved and she asked Xiao Hetao directly.
"Can you spit out the six spiritual veins in the small world, and then absorb the spiritual veins here?"
The little walnut shook slightly, "Yes, but the small world will be very chaotic, collapsing and expanding, and the Yuanci Divine Mountain will be affected."
Xu Chunniang frowned and thought, forget it, the small world is too small to withstand the turmoil.
With the help of her and Grandmaster Sheng, they should be able to refine all six spiritual veins in half a year and bring them back to Xiaoyao Sect.
Just as the two were silently refining their spiritual veins, the news that the Xiaoyao Sect had defeated the Hunyuan Sect spread rapidly in the world of cultivation.
For a time, dozens of evil sects affiliated with the Hunyuan Sect were all in danger, fearing that they would be the next to be exterminated.
After the Demonic Pill Sect received the news, they rose up in resistance and were the first to announce that they would distance themselves from the evil cultivators.
When the leader of the Wanjian Sect heard about this, he felt unbelievable.
"Xiaoyao Sect, don't they only have one Nascent Soul left, Sheng Qingjun, and they are holding on in the Demon Cave with the remaining people? How can they have the strength to attack Hunyuan Sect?"
“Sect Master, according to reliable information, a disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect who was traveling abroad has returned.
Her name is Xu Chunniang, and she has the cultivation level of the fourth level of the Nascent Soul. After killing the Three Idiots, she and Sheng Qingjun led their disciples to attack the Hunyuan Sect. "
The leader of the Wanjian Sect still felt a sense of absurdity. "How could a female cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul stage be able to surpass the Blood Infant Monster and the Ghost Granny in terms of magical power?"
"I heard that when Xiaoyao Sect attacked Hunyuan Sect, the old monster Xueying was not in the sect. There were only Hunyuan Zhenren and Ghost Granny."
"Even so, this woman's strength is far beyond that of an average Nascent Soul cultivator."
The leader of the Wanjian Sect remembered this girl's name very well. His master, Qingxuan Zhenjun, had the cultivation level of the middle Nascent Soul stage and had extraordinary swordsmanship.
It would be a draw against the ghost grandma or the blood baby monster.
Could it be that this woman’s strength is greater than his master’s
The leader of the Wanjian Sect frowned. Now that the Hunyuan Sect was defeated, wouldn't the six spiritual veins of the sect and the massive resources they plundered all fall into the hands of the Xiaoyao Sect
He stood up suddenly and ordered, "Pass on my order, issue the sect's mission, and order all disciples to go down the mountain immediately to strangle the evil cultivator.
All evil cultivators, regardless of their level of cultivation, must be eradicated!"
"yes."
The disciples were delighted. After so many years, they finally heard the sect leader give this order.
After receiving the order, he couldn't wait to leave and distribute the task.
Watching his figure disappear in the hall, the Wanjian Sect's leader's expression eased a little and walked towards the place where his master was in seclusion in the back mountain.
When Qingxuan Zhenjun heard the news that Hunyuan Sect had been defeated, he was very pleased.
"The ghost lady used an unconventional sword technique. She entered the ghost world in human form and was able to steal the lifespan of ghosts to complete her own body. She was very difficult to deal with. I didn't expect her to die so suddenly."
"Master, the spiritual veins in the back mountain have gradually shown signs of drying up over the years. The Hunyuan Sect has six spiritual veins, and the current Xiaoyao Sect simply cannot use so many.
Why don't we come forward and exchange two spirit veins with them..."
“No!”
Before he could finish his words, True Lord Qingxuan's face darkened and he interrupted him.
"It would have been fine if we didn't intervene when Xiaoyao Sect was in danger, but now that they have wiped out Hunyuan Sect, the six spiritual veins are what they deserve."
The Wanjian Sect leader's face stiffened slightly, "Master, you know, I don't want to take it by force, nor do I do it for my own selfish reasons.
It’s just that in recent years, the sect’s spiritual veins have indeed become insufficient. If this continues, the disciples’ cultivation will be affected…”
True Lord Qingxuan's expression eased a little, but he still shook his head.
"Spiritual veins are the foundation of a sect. Since you are considering the sect, I will not care about your mistakes.
If the spiritual vein is lacking and the foundation of the sect is shaken, I will go to the Ten Thousand Deep Mountains in the Western Regions to look for the spiritual vein."
"Master, please think again. I am mistaken! The deep mountains in the Western Regions are dangerous places. We still need you to guard them. Please put your own safety first!"
True Lord Qingxuan was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly, "I know my limits. Tang Chan, as the leader of a sect, you represent our Wanjian Sect. Remember not to act rashly."
Tang Chan bowed his head and bowed respectfully, "I will remember Master's teachings."
After stepping out of the cave, Tang Chan's expression changed several times, and he finally walked towards the place where his two uncles were in seclusion.
The master is too straightforward and doesn't understand his concerns and the difficulties of the sect at all. It's better for him to go and discuss it with his uncle.
I believe that the two uncles will understand what he means.
He planned to exchange spiritual ore for spiritual veins, and thought that Xiaoyao Sect would not refuse.
Just as Tang Chan was planning, a group of Wanjian Sect disciples received orders and went down the mountain, killing evil cultivators along the way, punishing evil and promoting good, and greatly promoting the reputation of Wanjian Sect.
