It is said that only the last level of Qiongqi Purgatory Technique can repair the body, and Wei Chongran certainly knew this.
But even the great elder of the Tianli tribe failed to cultivate to the last two levels, let alone the last level, so the statement that Li Yan swallowed a trace of the essence and blood of the "Immortal Dark Phoenix" is credible.
But Wei Chongran did not believe it completely. He always felt that he must have been right when he examined Li Yan's injuries.
Monks have always been very confident, especially those with great magical powers, who are always very confident in their own judgment.
For a moment, the cave fell into silence again. After a while, Wei Chongran let out a long breath. Although Li Yan's heart tightened unconsciously after taking this breath, he listened to Wei Chongran say.
"You must not mention this matter to anyone else in the future, otherwise it may bring you fatal disaster. It's just that when your physical body collapsed, it recovered on its own, which is too unbelievable. That's why I asked you about it. Otherwise, you have your own destiny, and I won't interfere."
He finally chose to believe Li Yan's words and decided not to pursue the matter further.
Li Yan has been secretly observing Wei Chongran. Although according to Wei Chongran's character, he feels that he will definitely not covet "this trace of the immortal phoenix's blood."
But Li Yan was still secretly on guard. Although he felt that this was of no use at all, he still became alert instinctively.
After listening to Little Purple Divine Dragon Elephant's description of how Wei Chongran had defeated the demon cultivator so swiftly and efficiently, Li Yan didn't think he could make any waves in front of Wei Chongran.
Li Yan himself didn't know what was going on in his mind. He would rather expose the essence and blood of the Immortal Phoenix than admit that he had practiced the Qiongqi Purgatory Technique.
Was it because he was afraid of bringing unnecessary trouble to Gong Chenying, or was it because he was afraid that his master would know that he was playing both sides
Li Yan is not good at handling his emotions. Of course, the first person he likes from the bottom of his heart is Zhao Min. However, because of Gong Chenying's unexpected incident, he cannot give up Zhao Min.
The few years of casual relationship with Zhao Min made the girl in white the first to enter the heart of the ignorant boy. This youthful emotion can never be erased and cannot be replaced in a lifetime.
Li Yan also knew that this matter could not be kept secret for long, but he still chose to hide it from Wei Chongran, at least he did not dare to tell anyone before he condensed his golden elixir.
Although Wei Chongran was extremely smart, he did not expect that his disciple was more thoughtful.
Besides, what he feared most was matters involving emotions, otherwise he would not have been so badly defeated between his wife and Li Yuyin, and would have avoided and hidden wherever he could.
Seeing Wei Chongran admonishing him like this, Li Yan showed an earnest look on his face, "Thank you for your teachings, Master. I can naturally distinguish the importance of things."
But he was still on guard in his heart, worried that Wei Chongran would suddenly attack him, but fortunately Wei Chongran did not suddenly capture him.
"Okay, I'm glad you can recover. I called you here today because the war here is very urgent. In the past month, we have fought dozens of battles with the demon cultivators, big and small. There were even dozens of Nascent Souls fighting on both sides. The casualties on both sides were very huge."
“Even the Nascent Soul seniors have shown up, and there are so many of them?” Li Yan was really frightened by Wei Chongran’s words.
In the normal world of immortal cultivation, most cultivators may not even see a Nascent Soul cultivator once in their lifetime. They are like dragons that are hard to spot and are already the top existences in this world.
Although he does not have absolute power in this world like a Divine Transformation cultivator, he is also a high-level cultivator.
With so many Nascent Souls appearing at once, although Li Yan had thought that the battle between the two sides would be fierce, he had not expected it to be so intense.
"Yes, although there were no deaths among the Nascent Soul cultivators on both sides, there were some who were seriously injured. The ancestor of our Red Blade Sect was seriously injured and unconscious, and the ancestor of Mingyewu Sect's body collapsed, with only his Nascent Soul escaping.
One of the other demon cultivators was seriously injured, his demon baby escaped, and another demon general had his arm chopped off.
A large number of Jindans from both sides have died. Not counting the injured and disabled Jindans from our side, in just one month, sixteen people have died, and eight foreign Jindan cultivators and demons from the other side have died."
As Wei Chongran spoke, a murderous look appeared in his eyes.
Li Yan was stunned, digesting the information in his heart. After a long while, he said, "Master, I didn't expect our casualties to be so heavy."
"Well, of course. The demon cultivators and foreign cultivators have strong bodies and powerful magic respectively. In a one-on-one situation, our combat power is not as good as the other side. But fortunately, we have reinforcements, while the other side has one less person for every death."
Wei Chongran sighed, then looked at Li Yan and said, "In fact, the greatest casualties were among the foundation-building cultivators. After the demon cultivators used the forbidden technique, many South Sea cultivators had already lost their minds and became puppets who only knew how to kill.
And the most troublesome thing is that they would self-destruct the South China Sea monks at any time, without caring about the lives of these human monks, thus causing a large number of casualties on our disciples.
The other party may think that the teleportation array leading to the crack of Yinmo Cliff is in Fengliang Mountain, so their attack on the two defense points of Tunmo Ridge and Jianfuyuan is much weaker, so the cultivators here also receive the most reinforcements.
Every day, monks are transferred here and then sent to the front battlefield.
Because I guessed a few days ago that it would take at least ten days for you to recover, but I also wanted you to consolidate your strength for a while, so I didn't ask you to come out."
Wei Chongran smiled at Li Yan. Li Yan looked at the bloodstained Wei Chongran and realized that this fat master must have just returned from the battlefield. Even Wei Chongran looked like this, which showed how fierce the war was. "But now is the time to use people. This is not a place for cultivation. Although there are few disciples in Xiaozhu Peak, they cannot be cowards. So I will interrupt your cultivation." Wei Chongran said calmly.
Li Yan immediately bowed respectfully and said, "As we are now in the midst of a great war with the demons, I will do my best."
Li Yan knew Wei Chongran's feelings towards the Wuliang Sect and would never let the demons occupy the Wild Moon Continent, so of course he couldn't show his true feelings.
“Well, Wuyi and his men are now fighting against the demon cultivators that flew out of the cracks in Yinmo Cliff. The situation there is not much better than ours. You are the only disciple of Xiaozhu Peak here, so don’t let down the reputation of Xiaozhu Peak.
At the same time, there is no need to hide your true cultivation level anymore. From now on, scouts will not be sent out to explore the enemy situation, but rather both sides will engage in head-on confrontation.
At that time, as soon as you make a move, the fluctuation of your spiritual power will be difficult to hide. Under the watchful eyes of so many people, it will backfire and make others pay more attention to you.
As for your cultivation, I have my own explanation, so you don’t have to worry about it.”
Wei Chongran knew that Li Yan's injuries were actually very serious in the eyes of outsiders, and if he said it would take one or two years to recover, others would believe it.
After all, he had held back a Jindan demon cultivator for more than ten breaths with his Foundation Establishment cultivation level, so others could guess how serious his injuries were. But the current situation was that he didn't want his disciple to hide behind others.
Although Wei Chongran has always been protective of his disciples, he hopes that his disciples can become a true powerful immortal cultivator rather than a mediocre person.
Therefore, he had to know exactly what level of cultivation Li Yan was at so that he could think of a good excuse for him.
In front of hundreds of cultivators, how could Li Yan hide if he took action? That would seem like he was deliberately "harbouring evil intentions", which would attract more attention. It would be better for him to blend in with the crowd.
Li Yan's face was calm, but he was delighted in his heart. "Please give me your orders, Master!"
Li Yan also knew how precious his life was, but he had no choice, and he had no ability to lead his parents and younger sister to leave the Desolate Moon Continent.
All he could do was to take advantage of the general trend and do his best to stop the invasion of the demons, even though his power was insignificant in this war.
The most important thing is that the meaning of Wei Chongran’s words just now is that he should explain the reason why Li Yan’s cultivation level suddenly increased in two years.
Wei Chongran should have spread the news and maybe hid it from Li Yan for some reason. In this way, Li Yan would have to worry about why he had done everything he could to prevent others from knowing why he had such a high level of cultivation in such a short period of time.
However. Li Yan thought that if he went out alone to train in the future, he would still suppress his cultivation to a certain extent. Surprise attacks on opponents were what he was most willing to do. Fighting life and death was always too tiring.
“That’s what I meant when I asked you about your actual cultivation level just now. Now all the disciples of my Wuliang Sect have been dispersed to various military camps to take up important positions.
Bai Rou, Du Sanjiang and others are no exception. Then you can go to the 16th team of the Green Bat Camp later. With your cultivation level, you are qualified to be the captain of the team.
The captain of this team was originally a disciple of Four Elephants Peak, and he died in battle yesterday."
Wei Chongran thought for a moment and said, After he understood Li Yan's true cultivation, he immediately determined Li Yan's position.
"Disciple obeys!" Li Yan responded and saluted.
… …
One thousand miles south of Fengliang Mountain, at the top of a mountain, six demon cultivators were standing. They were all tall, young and old, male and female, and they all had a terrifying aura that spread out in all directions at all times.
They were all demon generals. The demon cultivators were strong-willed and tough. Although there were some cultivators among them who liked to hide their aura, most of them would rather release their aura freely and did not want to hide it.
"We have been attacking Fengliang Mountain for thirty-two days, but we still cannot advance at all. The resistance from the cultivators of the Wild Moon Continent is very fierce, and we cannot advance as we planned."
The purple cloak of the demon cultivator who was speaking was rustling in the wind. He was the Demon General Tiedong with short silver hair.
"That's just because some people think that the cultivators of the Desolate Moon Continent are vulnerable. If that were true, we would have taken over this continent when we first opened the passage between the two realms. Why would we let them seal the cracks in the Yin Demon Cliff again? The rest of us were beaten and hid here and there, unable to resist."
A pleasant voice came from one side. This person had a truly devilish figure, and the ups and downs of his appearance gave people endless reverie.
She had a very delicate appearance, with a high nose bridge. She wore a set of sleeveless armor made of the skin of some unknown magical beast tightly fitting her body, and her exposed limbs were long and slender.
A pair of slender hands each held a crescent-shaped hand guard, but the exposed skin did not have any patterns like that of other demon cultivators. Although the skin was also black, it had a faint luster and was surprisingly elastic.
As she said this, her pair of phoenix eyes swept across a few of them, and a hint of dissatisfaction appeared in her eyes. Between the full peaks, there were deep ravines that rose and fell, as if they could trap and kill thousands of troops.
After she finished speaking, Tiedong frowned, but before he could say anything, an old demon cultivator next to him snorted heavily, with a look of deep indignation on his face.
