Precisely because Li Yan had very poor aptitude, Wei Chongran had always been worried about his youngest disciple. Of course, another reason was also because of Zhao Min. Zhao Min was willing to associate with very few people, even same-sex friends. She had very few friends, and it was rare for her to be willing to say a few words to Li Yan.
Especially after Zhao Min came back from Li Yan's hometown in the secular world last time, she had been in seclusion for a while, but her cultivation, which had been suppressed for a long time, unexpectedly made breakthroughs one after another. This made Wei Chongran and his wife overjoyed, and at the same time they also felt that Zhao Min was much less indifferent.
Li Yan's face turned a little pale. He looked at the floating Bing Yun Ling in front of him, and was very happy. He said quickly, "Thank you, Master!"
“Well, as for the Jade Horned Snake you mentioned, it does exist in the Hundred Thousand Mountains of our sect. However, if you want to obtain a high-grade Jade Horned Snake, it will take some effort. I will keep an eye out for it.
You can take this Ice Cloud Feather, but you must choose the weapon refiner you are looking for carefully, otherwise he may not even be able to refine the material and will freeze to death."
As he said this, Wei Chongran looked at Li Yan meaningfully, warning Li Yan not to act on impulse and try to refine the magic formula according to the formula himself, as that would hurt himself with Li Yan's current level of cultivation.
He was helpless with Li Yan's character. Over the years, he seldom asked him about matters of cultivation, as if he was always on guard against everyone. But this time, he finally got closer to him. This could be regarded as a sign that the relationship between the master and the disciple was beginning to become harmonious.
Li Yan said yes, but when it came to refining the magic weapon of Guishui Xianmen, he would never look for anyone else.
After Wei Chongran finished speaking, he took the Ice Cloud Feather floating in the air into his hand again. Then, as the light in his hand became brighter, the coldness in the cave was greatly reduced. He had sealed the two Ice Cloud Feathers in his hand as he was afraid of hurting Li Yan again.
Then he waved his hand gently, and two Ice Cloud Feathers flew towards Li Yan. Li Yan looked at the two Ice Cloud Feathers flying towards him with doubt in his eyes. After reaching out to take the Ice Cloud Feathers, he said respectfully, "Master, what are you doing? I only need one to refine the weapon, not to mention that this is the material for a third-level monster!"
His initial idea was just to get a second-order Ice Cloud Feather. Although the power of Guiyi Water-Fen Thorn would be greatly reduced, the power of the magic weapon would gradually increase through gradual nurturing in the future.
But this time, he didn't expect Wei Chongran to give him two third-level Ice Cloud Feathers. You know, third-level monster materials are very rare in the market.
Just these two third-rank Ice Cloud Feathers could be sold for at least fifty to sixty thousand spirit stones, and this is when there is a lack of demand for them. Otherwise, how could Wei Chongran have kept these things until now without ever selling them
Wei Zhongran waved his hand and said, "You have been a disciple for a long time, and I have not given you much help. Just take it.
Okay, next, let's talk about what's happening in the Immortal Cultivation World. How much do you know about the current demon invasion?"
Wei Chongran was not willing to say more about the Er Bing Yun Ling, and immediately changed the subject, which was exactly what Li Yan wanted to know at the moment.
Seeing that Wei Chongran didn't care at all, Li Yan didn't refuse anymore and put the two Ice Cloud Feathers into his storage bag.
“Master, I went to the extreme north of the Pure Land Sect, and was seriously injured while searching for materials for refining equipment.
I have been in seclusion until a month ago, and all the information I knew was hearsay. I heard that this time the demons found the weakest barrier between the two worlds in the South China Sea. As for the details, I have no way of guessing whether the information I received was true or not.
Master, has the Taixuan Sect's headquarters really been breached and occupied by the demons?"
After thinking about it, Li Yan asked the question in his mind.
"What you heard about the demons breaking through the barrier between the two worlds from the South China Sea is true. Many cultivators in the Desolate Moon Continent know about this. What you did in Xuanqing Temple is closely related to this demon invasion."
"Are you talking about the eyeball of the Miluo Nine-tailed Turtle?" Li Yan of course thought of what Qin Chengyi had stolen.
"Haha, it seems you have guessed it. This item is actually called 'Boundary Breaking Pearl'. It was a treasure that the Demon Realm spent a huge amount of money to refine in order to invade the foreign space outside the Demon Realm. It contains the power to easily destroy a piece of main space, so it can be used to break through the space barrier between the two realms.
Such a powerful magic weapon, but even if the demons put all their efforts into it, they could only refine a few of the "Boundary Breaking Pearls" in the end. I don't know exactly how many there are, but I heard that it would not exceed a handful at most.
However, the spatial barrier between the two realms is so solid that even a powerful god is powerless against it.
Therefore, after obtaining the 'Boundary Breaking Pearl', one must find the weakest point in the barrier between the two realms before it is possible to use this item to break through the space barrier.
In order to open up a passage to the Desolate Moon Continent, the demons used three of them at the same time, and only then did they break through the barrier between the demon world and the Desolate Moon Continent. "
Li Yan was horrified after hearing this. It took the power of an entire realm to refine several "boundary-breaking beads". This thing turned out to be the inconspicuous, but slightly weird eyeball of the Miluo Nine-tailed Turtle that he saw at the beginning. It was a magic weapon that could connect the two realms. It was estimated that it could easily destroy half of the Desolate Moon Continent. What a powerful existence it was.
"Master, are you talking about the crack in the Yin Demon Cliff, or somewhere else?" Li Yan was shocked, but he quickly reacted. "It was the crack in the Yin Demon Cliff. The three 'Boundary Breaking Pearls' bombarded the crack in turn, opening up the passage there and destroying almost all the mountains within a radius of thousands of miles, forming the crack in the Yin Demon Cliff."
When Wei Chongran talked about the "Yinmo Cliff Crack", a fierce look flashed in his eyes. For him, the Yinmo Cliff Crack was a period of time like hell.
Although the cracks in the Yinmo Cliff had been sealed by the great powers of the predecessors, fighting had continued for many years. Many of his close friends had died there, and he had narrowly escaped death many times.
Li Yan felt an extremely fierce pressure in an instant, but the pressure came and went quickly. Just when Li Yan felt his breath was suffocated, the pressure immediately disappeared without a trace. This made Li Yan, who had just calmed down, frightened again.
"What is the level of cultivation of my master? With my current physical state, I wouldn't be too afraid even if I faced a mid-stage Jindan.
At least under Hua Siwang's aura lock, I still have hope of escaping to a certain extent, and then with the help of the power of "Rongsun" and "Feng Chongtian", I may be able to get rid of the opponent. "
The aura that Wei Chongran inadvertently revealed just now made Li Yan feel like he was carrying a heavy mountain. Li Yan thought about it and realized that if Wei Chongran deliberately locked onto him, then he would have no chance of escaping, not even if he fully unleashed his physical strength and Guishui Sutra, and combined it with the "Feng Chongtian" body movement.
This instantly gave Li Yan a new understanding of Wei Chongran. His master was definitely a master who was hiding his true abilities. Even the mid-stage Jindan cultivation that he had revealed before might have been a cover-up.
While Li Yan's mind was racing, Wei Chongran continued, "The cracks in the Yin Demon Cliff were later sealed by several top cultivators from the Desolate Moon Continent, but the seal still couldn't completely stop the attacks from the Demon Realm.
Therefore, almost every day, many demon monks would force their way through regardless of the consequences, trying to destroy the seal in this way, and then flee to the Desolate Moon Continent to lurk.
But fortunately, the power of the seal has greatly suppressed the size of the crack in the Yinmo Cliff. Therefore, only the demon leader and the demon cultivators below him can ignore casualties. A small number of demon cultivators will drill through the crack in the Yinmo Cliff. We just need to guard the crack in the Yinmo Cliff.
Over the past tens of millions of years, despite the fighting between the two sides, the Desolate Moon Continent has been relatively peaceful.
I guess you have heard that the four major sects and the secret realm monsters have joined forces and will send Jindan-stage monks to take turns guarding there all year round. "At this point, Wei Chongran paused.
Li Yan asked calmly, "I heard that Master had also been stationed at the crack of Yinmo Cliff in the past."
After listening to this, Wei Chongran just nodded, and then did not explain too much on this topic, and continued speaking.
"The three 'Boundary Breaking Pearls' disappeared on their own on the Desolate Moon Continent after they opened up the cracks in the Demonic Cliff a long time ago. As the power within the pearls was depleted, they became ordinary.
In fact, this is not true. Even if the power in the bead remains, it cannot be opened without the corresponding magic formula to control it. And the magic formula to open the "Break the World Bead" is only known by the demons who refined it.
At the same time, the power of the 'Boundary Breaking Pearl' that can destroy the heavens and the earth can also be regenerated."
"Can the 'Boundary Breaking Pearl' that has been used once be used again?" Li Yan couldn't help but wonder, but then he cursed himself for being "stupid". If the "Boundary Breaking Pearl" could not be used again, then why would anyone go to Xuanqing Temple to steal it.
Wei nodded and said, "There are two ways to restore the terrifying power inside the 'Break the World Pearl'. One is to use unimaginable natural treasures to refine it again, which can quickly restore the terrifying power inside the pearl.
Another method is that the 'Boundary Breaking Pearl' itself can absorb the essence of heaven and earth over a long period of time, and slowly accumulate it into a force that can destroy the world.
It’s just that this time is too long, even tens of thousands of years is not enough, it may be 100,000 years, or even millions or tens of millions of years.”
Having said that, Wei Chongran looked at Li Yan, who had a hint of understanding on his face, and said, "I guess you have guessed some of the things that happened later."
Wei Chongran had actually told Li Yan a lot of important information. Li Yan then connected some things together and of course guessed a lot of information, including the matter of Xuanqing Temple.
Seeing Li Yan nod, Wei Chongran continued, "Then these three 'Boundary Breaking Pearls' were scattered across the Desolate Moon Continent. After tens of millions of years, the demons may have sensed their awakening or existence in some way, and they once again planned to open up the passage between the two realms.
However, most of the demons that remain on the Desolate Moon Continent, or the sects controlled by them, have been wiped out by human cultivators over the long years. Even if they sense the location of the "Break the World Pearl", they dare not rob it, for fear that the news will leak out in advance and attract the attention of the top human cultivators, which will expose their intentions too early.
Therefore, they sent people to steal the "Break the World Pearl" that appeared in Xuanqing Temple a few years ago, and you accidentally ruined the good thing. That's why I said that Master Mo Qing praised you very much, otherwise this time it might not just be a problem of demons appearing in the South China Sea. "
Only then did Li Yan realize that he had accomplished such a remarkable feat unintentionally.
