Chapter 185 Xuantian Mirror and the Five Immortal Weapons
Xuanyin Sect.
As it absorbed more and more energy and faith, the cracks on the Qiankun Furnace were decreasing almost every day, and its capabilities were becoming increasingly stronger, as evidenced by the speed of alchemy.
Under normal circumstances, even a fourth-grade alchemist would need at least one day to refine a golden spirit pill.
In order to be safe, they will deliberately extend the time.
And making a fourth-level elixir, where all previous efforts would be wasted if even one step went wrong, is extremely simple for this furnace. As long as Li Yu provides mana steadily, it can make one furnace in half an hour, and make ten elixirs in one furnace.
As for the other pills, they were even more incredibly fast.
A good cook cannot cook without rice. The Golden Spirit Pill lacks important ingredients, so Li Yu has no way to refine it for the time being. He just refines the Foundation Establishment Pill, the Meridian Extension Pill, the third-level Qi Recovery Pill and other pills.
After the demon girl returned to Xuanyin Sect, she followed Li Yu's example and brought all the foundation-building elders of Xuanyin Sect who were about to die to Lingchan Peak.
The size of Xuanyin Sect is similar to that of Kunlun, and there are many such foundation-building elders.
However, her requirements are quite stringent.
All the foundation-building elders who came to her for help, after they formed their golden elixir, would not only have restrictions planted on their souls, but would also let her control their life and death, and make them obey her for life. After returning to the abyss, they would also have to hand over their golden elixir. Even the right to dispose of their corpses was in the hands of the witch.
Whether to bury them or refine them into spirit corpses depends on her wishes.
She really lives up to her name as the devil witch.
Even so, the elders of the Xuanyin Sect also flocked to Lingchan Peak.
Not to mention these evil elders, even the righteous elders under Li Yu were also involved to this extent.
But Li Yu was very lenient with them.
They only need to serve him for a hundred years. After a hundred years, Li Yu will release the restrictions on their souls and let them decide for themselves whether to stay or leave. He does not want their golden elixirs or their bodies.
After all, what he values more is their faith.
If we are too harsh on them and make them lose the power of faith, it will be counterproductive.
News soon came from Yinling Cave.
According to the disciples of Xuanyin Sect, an elder who had established his foundation from Demon Flame Sect was willing to join Xuanyin Sect and cooperate with them to capture all the disciples of Demon Flame Sect in that space.
A certain disciple reversed the situation with just his words, making the elder, who was at the peak of the foundation building stage and possessed a valuable treasure, stand on their side, and took back the Silver Spirit Cave Heaven without bloodshed.
When those disciples of the Demon Flame Sect were brought back to the Xuanyin Sect, they continued to speak.
"Elder Wu is confused!"
"How could such a good thing happen?"
"You betrayed the sect, aren't you afraid that your descendants will be punished?"
…
An old man in red looked at them but did not speak. In front of Changsheng, all the bloodlines between master and disciple could be abandoned. As a man who was about to return to the abyss, he could only take care of himself.
Li Yu looked at the old man and asked, "Do you want to join the Xuanyin Sect?"
The extremely old man who looked like a skeleton asked, "Are you really willing to give me the realm-breaking pill?"
Li Yu said: "It's not free. You need to pay a certain price. After you form the golden elixir, you will have to serve the Saint Girl for the rest of your life. When your life span ends, you must hand over the golden elixir, and your body will be disposed of by the Xuanyin Sect..."
Faced with this request, the elder of the Demon Flame Sect said without hesitation, "Yes."
Li Yu didn't say much and handed him a pill.
This elder of the Demon Flame Sect is quite courageous.
Just based on the words of a disciple of Xuanyin Sect, he betrayed Moyan Sect and came to Xuanyin Sect alone, not afraid that the disciple was deceiving him.
However, his life span is probably less than two years, so it is not surprising that he would take risks for this.
Wu Ming took the golden elixir and stood there in a daze for a long time.
In fact, when he betrayed the Demon Flame Sect and came to the Xuanyin Sect, he had no confidence at all.
But he had only one chance.
If you try, your foundation may turn into a golden elixir. If you don’t try, you will just wait for death.
Unexpectedly, what the Xuanyin Sect disciple said was actually true.
After coming to his senses, he immediately swallowed the realm-breaking pill as if he was worried about another accident.
The pill melted in his mouth and turned into a powerful spiritual force, compressing the magic power in his spiritual veins to the extreme.
But it did not allow him to form the elixir.
The expression on the Demon Flame Sect elder's face froze and his face immediately turned pale.
Almost.
Just a little bit!
It was only a short distance away from an acupuncture point, and he could step into the realm he had always dreamed of, but the spiritual power of the realm-breaking pill was no longer effective when it reached there.
In just a few breaths, his mood went from the lowest point to the highest point, and then back to the lowest point again.
There was a hint of self-mockery on his face, but more of reluctance. He muttered to himself, "It seems that I, Wu Ming, will never be able to obtain the Golden Elixir in this life..."
Li Yu waved his hand and said, "Not really. It's normal that one pill can't form a pill. Just take another one."
He took out another pill and handed it to the elder of the Demon Flame Sect again.
With their talents, one realm-breaking pill is not enough for at least half of them. Li Yu has already paid the price of a Golden Spirit Pill and cannot give up halfway.
This is not just the cost of silence. A Jindan stage cultivator is much more valuable than two Jinlingdan pills.
The elder of the Demon Flame Sect stared blankly at the other pill in Li Yu's hand, feeling a little bewildered for a moment.
There is actually a second chance?
The disciple of Xuanyin Sect didn’t say anything either !
Could it be that they are the ones that can form elixir?
…
Soon, a wave of Dan formation came in front of Li Yu.
Looking inside the red golden elixir in his body, Wu Ming was filled with vitality and power pouring out of it, slowly repairing his body. He burst into tears.
Golden elixir... the golden elixir he had been dreaming of for more than two hundred years!
The disciples of the Demon Flame Sect stood there in a daze as they watched Elder Wu, who was about to return to the abyss, forming a pill in front of them.
The Xuanyin Sect really gives out realm-breaking pills as soon as you join!
Wu Ming had woken up from his ecstasy at this moment, and knelt on the ground with his knees, saying in a trembling voice: "Thank you, Young Master, for helping me to form the elixir. I am willing to follow you, and I will go through fire and water, and will not refuse even if I die..."
Li Yu didn't know whether he would go through fire and water and die in the future, but at least at this moment, Li Yu believed that he was sincere.
His faith ranks among the top ten among all the foundation-building elders Li Yu has met.
According to Li Yu's experience, the strength of one's faith has nothing to do with whether one is on the righteous path or the evil path.
The more life span one has left, the weaker one's faith is; the less life span one has left, the stronger one's faith is.
The two pills were not wasted. Li Yu waved his hand and said, "Get up."
After Wu Ming stood up, he thought for a moment and asked, "Young Master, I have a few old friends who are running out of time. Can they come and follow the Young Master?"
Li Yu said: "If they are willing, just let them come directly to Xuanyin Sect."
"Thank you, Young Master!"
The old man who had been lifeless just now had become full of energy. He took out a spiritual snail from his waist, activated it with his magic power, and asked excitedly, "Is Mr. Tian dead?"
Another old voice in the conch said: "You are not dead yet, I will definitely die after you..."
Wu Ming didn't waste any time and asked directly, "Are there any other people around you?"
"Why do you ask that?"
"Stop talking nonsense, is there anything!"
"I'm in the cave, there's no one around me..."
"What I am about to say next is related to whether you can form a pill. You should immediately set up a soundproof barrier so that no one can hear what I am about to say..."
…
After the Soul Refining Sect's fourth-grade elixir was handed over to Li Yulian, the Golden Spirit Pill would be in short supply for a period of time in the future.
It is easy to obtain realm-breaking pills, but it is difficult to obtain ready-made peak foundation-building pills.
Therefore, Li Yu did not refuse the request of the elder of the Demon Flame Sect.
At this time, the other Demon Flame Sect's foundation builders also reacted and began to pray.
"I am also willing to join the Xuanyin Sect!"
"Please give us a chance, Master!"
"As long as I can form a pill, I can do anything..."
Li Yu did not immediately pay attention to those people. Most of these disciples of the Demon Flame Sect were in the early or middle stages of foundation building. In order for them to form pills, not only would they have to pay extra Tuomai Pills, but the number of Golden Spirit Pills would also be several times or even ten times that of others.
They are far less resource-efficient than these old men who are at the peak of foundation building and are just one step away from forming a pill.
However, Li Yu had some doubts in his mind.
The number of these people exceeded thirty, and only three of them in the late foundation building stage would be enough to suppress the rebellious elder. But according to the disciples of Xuanyin Sect, this man surnamed Wu was able to intimidate all of them with just one magic weapon, forcing these thirty disciples of Demon Flame Sect to surrender.
What kind of magic weapon could be so intimidating?
Li Yu looked at the Demon Flame Sect elder and asked, "I heard you have a powerful magic weapon?"
Wu Ming immediately took out a silver mirror from his sleeve, handed it to Li Yu respectfully with both hands, and said: "Replying to the young master, this is the magic weapon that the Tiandao Sect lent to the Demon Flame Sect. The Demon Flame Sect asked me to use it to guard the Silver Spirit Cave Heaven..."
Li Yu took it.
This is a silver mirror with a long handle. The handle and the edge of the mirror have mysterious patterns. In the world of immortal cultivation, mirror-type magic weapons are very rare, and Li Yu seldom sees them.
The elder of the Demon Flame Sect and Li Yu introduced the usage of this thing.
Li Yu held the handle of the mirror and input magic power. Suddenly, a dazzling white light shot out from the mirror. Even the formation of Lingchan Peak was shaken a little. This white light contained extremely strong energy. If an ordinary foundation-building period was hit by this white light, he would probably be melted immediately, and the only outcome would be the destruction of both body and soul.
The magic power input by Li Yu was only equivalent to the initial stage of foundation building.
It can be imagined that if this item is in the hands of a person at the peak of the foundation building stage, there will probably be no rivals below the Golden Core stage. Even killing five spiritual veins instantly with a single spiritual vein is not a problem.
Generally speaking, a magic weapon that can increase mana by 50% is already a top-notch one.
This mirror can amplify magic power tenfold.
Not only that, the speed of the white light was also astonishingly fast. With the speed of the Foundation Establishment Period, even a peak Foundation Establishment cultivator who was proficient in wind magic could not dodge it.
It can be said that the difference between this mirror magic weapon and ordinary magic weapons is the difference between hot weapons and cold weapons.
No wonder the people from the Demon Flame Sect are so confident.
If the elder of the Demon Flame Sect had not died immediately, all the disciples of the Xuanyin Sect would have died there. Once this mirror appears, whoever comes will die.
Li Yu tried it and found that the magic power that this mirror could contain was at most for the Foundation Establishment Stage. It was not enough to deal with the Golden Core Stage. The power of the white light could not destroy the magic shield of the Golden Core Stage.
But if there is a higher-level magic weapon of this kind, it will pose a huge threat to him.
This also raised Li Yu's vigilance towards the Tiandao Sect to a higher level.
They have been sitting at the top of the world of immortal cultivation for too long, monopolizing countless secret realms and caves, and no one knows what other powerful things they have that have not been shown to others.
Li Yu took out a spiritual conch, injected his magic power into it, and said, "Old Wu, I have something to ask you..."
After a moment, Wu Tong said from the other side of the conch: "You mean, a mirror that can emit white light?"
Li Yu said: "Yes, the power of the white light is extremely strong. Although it consumes a lot of mana, it can easily kill the peak of the foundation building stage."
Wu Tong didn't think for long before he said, "There aren't many mirror-type magic weapons in the world of immortal cultivation. The only one with such power is probably the Xuantian Mirror, the sect-protecting magic weapon of the Tiandao Sect. It seems that the chaos of the Demonic Path was undoubtedly instigated by the Tiandao Sect."
Li Yu looked at the mirror in his hand and asked unsurely, "Are you saying that this thing is a fairy weapon?"
Wu Tong explained: "What you have in your hand is certainly not an immortal weapon, but just a low-end imitation of the Mysterious Heaven Mirror. But even if it is an imitation, it is not comparable to other magic weapons. After all, among the five immortal weapons, in terms of attack, the Mysterious Heaven Mirror is well-deservedly ranked first. However, the Tiandao Sect will not have too many of these things, and they are willing to give them to the Demon Flame Sect..."
Li Yu guessed that the Tiandao Sect must have taken a fancy to the Silver Spirit Secret Realm, thinking that with the help of this mirror, they could become invincible during the Foundation Establishment Period. However, he did not expect that the Demon Flame Sect, along with the mirror, had been recruited by Li Yu.
He quickly came to his senses and asked, "Five great immortal weapons, which five great immortal weapons?"
"The Xuantian Mirror of the Tiandao Sect, the Zhantian Armor of Kunlun, the Mountain and River Map of Emei, the Zhutian Sword Formation of Shushan, and the Zhentian Seal that the Great Zhou Dynasty seized from the Tianyan Dynasty..." Wu Tong knew them all by heart.
As the young master of Kunlun, Li Yu didn't even know what the immortal weapons of his own sect were. He soon spoke again: "Mysterious Heaven Mirror, Heaven-War Armor, Heaven-Slaying Sword Formation, Heaven-Suppressing Seal... How come, except for the Mountain and River Map of Emei, these immortal weapons are all at odds with the sky..."
Wu Tong said in the conch shell: "You are wrong. Emei is no exception. The Mountain and River Map was originally called the Sky-Trapping Map. However, one of the ancestors of Emei thought that the name was too ugly and did not fit the temperament of Emei, so it was renamed the Mountain and River Map..."
Speaking of his professional field, Wu Tong gradually opened up the conversation and continued, "The power of these five immortal weapons is not at the same level as other magic weapons. It is said that they are all products of the previous era. The ancient Tiandao Sect, the ancient Kunlun Sect and other major sects are only their users, not their manufacturers. As for why their names are all related to heaven , there have been different opinions in the immortal cultivation world for thousands of years, but I personally think that the immortal cultivators before this era were extremely powerful, and even reached the realm after the gods, and did not even take the laws of heaven seriously. The names of the magic weapons are just inherited from their thoughts..."
