Chapter 273 Preparations before the Crusade
Now that Yin Yuehan has reached the middle stage of the Golden Core and is able to fight, she naturally needs to experience more battles.
"Disciple obeys your command." Yin Yuehan nodded respectfully and said to Chen Li.
She knew that this battle was extremely dangerous, so she would never choose to avoid it, and even if Chen Li didn't intend to say it, she would take the initiative to go there.
"Continue to practice. I'm going to take care of something." With that said, Chen Li walked towards the attic.
After entering the attic, Chen Li deployed a barrier to prevent anyone from entering, and at the same time, no one could be found inside.
Because what he needs to do next is really a bit troublesome. Since he has taken away the magic weapon of the black-robed demon clan before, he can .
After making all the hidden preparations, Chen Li took out the Soul-Taking Scythe from the space ring.
Looking at the magic weapon in front of him, which exuded a strange and ominous aura, made people feel an unprecedented threat.
I have clearly reached the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, so why do I still have such a feeling? It seems that this magic weapon in front of me is probably hiding some secret.
But that black-robed demon had been killed long ago. Besides, even if he was still alive, he would never tell Chen Li these things.
Chen Li took a deep breath and slowly walked towards a position in front with a solemn look on his face.
He slowly circulated his spiritual energy, intending to erase the mark on it. This way, the Soul-Taking Scythe would be ownerless.
Although Chen Li also heard what the Black Robe Demon said before his death, that the Soul-Grabbing Scythe would no longer have a mark after his death.
But Chen Like would not believe his words. How could a mere demon tell so much to others?
When the spiritual energy penetrated into it, Chen Li suddenly felt a very dangerous breath.
There was clearly a remnant of consciousness among them, and it was obvious that it was left behind by the black-robed demon.
The moment this consciousness touched the spiritual energy, it actually rushed directly into Chen Li's mind.
Chen Li frowned. It was indeed more troublesome than he thought. It seemed that what the black-robed demon said before was just to make him let down his guard.
The purpose is to seize his body directly at the moment he touches the Soul-Taking Scythe, thus completing the possession.
If it was the early stage of Nascent Soul, perhaps Chen Li would still find it very troublesome, but now he has already achieved the middle stage of Nascent Soul.
"Haha, you don't think you can take over my body like this." Chen Li grinned, but his voice was very cold.
There are only two conditions for taking over someone else's body. One is that the other person is in an extremely weak state, and the other is that the other person's cultivation is lower than yours. Only in this way can success be guaranteed.
Obviously, Chen Li does not fall into the category of these two conditions at all, so there is naturally no need to care so much.
His mind moved, and he continued to condense his spiritual energy. This wisp of consciousness originally wanted to rush into Chen Li's consciousness and devour his consciousness, but after feeling this terrible breath, it disappeared before it could even let out a wail.
Seeing that this guy was dead, Chen Li didn't pay too much attention to it. He just looked at the soul-stealing sickle in front of him.
After destroying that soul, the mark inside had obviously disappeared, which made Chen Li fall into deep thought.
Does it mean that if you want to plant your own mark, you must integrate a little soul consciousness into it?
After thinking it over again and again, Chen Li felt that this was a good idea. Not only would it allow him to successfully control the Soul-Taking Scythe, but it would also allow him to retain a trace of his soul after his death.
As long as this soul exists, the body can be recondensed, thus achieving the concept of resurrection.
But if one wants to reshape the body, there is no other ability except the rumored Spirit Transformation Stage.
Although Chen Li has reached the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, it would be extremely difficult to reach the Spirit Transformation stage.
"It seems that I have to think of a way to deal with these things properly ." Chen Li touched his chin and muttered to himself.
He bit his finger and merged a drop of blood into the Soul-Taking Scythe. It seemed as if his consciousness was about to be absorbed, which made him slightly dazed.
When he came to his senses, his consciousness had already merged into the Soul-Taking Scythe. However, surprisingly, a sword-shaped mark appeared on the blade of the Soul-Taking Scythe, and no soul consciousness had been merged into it.
What surprised him even more was the following changes. The soul-stealing sickle in front of him was actually changing little by little, becoming a bright red sword with an extremely strange and ominous aura attached to it.
He waved his right hand and a blood-red sword appeared in his hand. If someone was hit by this blood-red sword, his soul and consciousness would probably be taken away.
"It really is worthy of being called the Soul-Snatching Scythe. No, it should be the Soul-Snatching Sword now." Chen Li looked at the Soul-Snatching Sword in his hand with a big smile on his face.
At this moment, Chen Li felt that there were several people coming from outside, and it seemed that they wanted to find Chen Li for something.
Without thinking too much, he quickly took back the Soul-Taking Sword, untied the barrier, and walked outside.
When he went down, he suddenly saw Luo Chen standing there waiting for him, as if he had something important to do.
"Chen Li, I've heard about you. I didn't expect that you have already reached the Nascent Soul stage." Luo Chen looked at Chen Li and said with emotion.
Chen Li waved his hand, "It was just luck, but looking at you, Elder Luo, you probably didn't come here specially to congratulate me."
"Well, this crusade against the demons is of no trivial importance. Ordinary inner disciples definitely cannot participate, so many Jindan-stage disciples have come out and plan to participate in this operation." Luo Chen said solemnly.
Chen Li touched his chin. It seemed that Nanli Sect was really trying its best for this matter. They even planned to send out disciples in the Jindan stage.
"What's the response from other sects?" Chen Li looked at Luo Chen and asked.
Luo Chen replied: "It's not clear at the moment. They are probably talking to the head of their own sect right now."
If you want to know their reply, you will probably have to wait for a while, so you must improve your strength as quickly as possible in the next period of time.
"The main thing I'm here to inform you about this time is the number of people. There are a total of two Nascent Soul cultivators, two late Golden Core cultivators, and six middle Golden Core cultivators from the Nanli Sect participating in this battle." Luo Chen said solemnly.
The two Nascent Soul cultivators were obviously Chen Li and Xiao Yuan. Among the Golden Core late stage cultivators there must be Luo Chen. As for the Golden Core middle stage cultivators, they should be a few disciples.
Chen Li touched his chin, a puzzled look on his face, "Who is the other cultivator in the middle stage of the Golden Core?"
Because there are too few cultivators in the inner sect who can reach the late Jindan stage. In Chen Li's understanding, except Luo Chen, there are no more cultivators in the late Jindan stage.
Luo Chen answered without hesitation: "It's Bai Xueyin."
Chen Li was a little surprised. The girl had actually reached the late Jindan stage. It seemed that she was about to break through to the Yuanying stage.
"During this period of time, let the alchemy room prepare various healing pills and pills for improving strength." Chen Li said to Luo Chen.
"Someone has already done this. After she learned about this, she ran to the alchemy room." Luo Chen smiled and said.
Of course Chen Li knew who that person was. After all, in Nanli Sect, the only person who could enter the alchemy room without hesitation was Lin Yumu.
After Chen Li and Luo Chen discussed countermeasures, Luo Chen left in a hurry, as if he had something important to do.
Chen Li watched Luo Chen leave, then turned to look at Yin Yuehan who was practicing swordplay over there, "Stop for now and make some preparations. We are going to go somewhere else."
"Yes." Yin Yuehan stopped practicing and stood respectfully behind Chen Li without asking where they were going.
For her, as long as she could stay with Chen Li, she would not frown even if they went to the most dangerous places.
Chen Li led Yin Yuehan to quickly leave the inner gate, and soon appeared in the outer gate.
However, they did not stay at the outer gate, but headed towards a remote mountain.
The black sword in Chen Li's hand was made in this place. I don't know if that person is still alive.
When he arrived here, Chen Li felt a hot breath and heard banging sounds.
Looking at the sturdy man over there, Chen Li's face showed surprise. A hundred years have passed, and he is still alive and still looks the same.
Lin Feng turned his head and looked at Chen Li. "I haven't seen you for so many years. I didn't expect that your cultivation has improved to this level."
There were only a few people who came to him to forge weapons, and only a handful of people had ever seen him. Chen Li had given him quite a shock at the time, and he naturally could not forget it.
Chen Li nodded and said to Lin Feng, "I came here this time to ask you to forge a sword for my apprentice."
Hearing this, Yin Yuehan was stunned. He didn't expect that what his master was talking about would be forging a sword for him.
Chen Li actually had no choice. After all, he was his disciple, and he had already reached the Jindan stage. But he didn't have a weapon of his own. How could this be acceptable?
Although he really wanted to use the Hunyuan Stone to forge a sword for Yin Yuehan, he had other uses for that thing, so he could only use the meteorite iron that the woman had given him before.
Lin Feng glanced at Yin Yuehan and nodded, "Okay, have you prepared the materials yourself?"
Chen Li waved his right hand, and a very large stone suddenly fell in front of Lin Feng. It exuded a rich spiritual energy, which made Lin Feng's eyes widen.
"Five hundred years old meteorite iron is a rare item. Do you really plan to use it to forge a sword?" Lin Feng looked at Chen Li and asked him.
Chen Li nodded. "For me, the value of this thing can only be reflected in forging weapons."
He already has a magic weapon of his own, plus he just got the Soul-Snatching Sword. No matter which sword it is, its material is better than meteorite iron, so there is no need to be stingy.
"Okay, since you said so, then I will do as you say. This girl looks delicate and fair-skinned, so you just stand aside and help me apply spiritual energy to her." After Lin Feng finished speaking, he looked at Yin Yuehan again.
Yin Yuehan was stunned for a moment, but since he was forging a sword for himself, he could only do as he said.
However, Yin Yuehan didn’t quite understand why there was such a hidden weapon refiner among the outer sect.
Chen Li was standing not far away and watching. Lin Feng had already started to smelt the meteorite iron. Yin Yuehan was standing aside, releasing his spiritual energy and merging it into the furnace.
This process lasted for a long time. Every time Yin Yuehan was about to give up, he would take a pill to replenish his spiritual energy.
This went on for several days, and Yin Yuehan felt that his body couldn't take it anymore.
However, she felt that after releasing spiritual energy for such a long time, her control over it became extremely delicate.
Chen Li touched his chin, his eyes fixed on Lin Feng over there. He didn't know why, but he always felt that he was not just an ordinary weapon refiner.
At this time, a figure flew over from not far away. It looked like a cultivator in the Jindan stage.
This cultivator was wearing the Taoist robe of the Nanli Sect and looked very anxious, as if something important happened.
"Elder Chen, something terrible has happened." The inner sect disciple stood in front of Chen Li and shouted anxiously.
