The first volume debuts Chapter 64 Change of heart!
The soul-searching technique can only be performed by those who have reached the spiritual foundation realm and above, where spiritual consciousness is born. It is an extremely vicious technique in the collection of the Five Elements Venerable, which uses spiritual consciousness to forcibly rush into the minds of others and search for memories.
The person whose soul is searched will suffer damage to his consciousness and lose his memory at the least, or even a decrease in IQ, and become a fool. If the person who casts the spell has a very strong consciousness, he can kill the person during the soul search.
The higher the proficiency and cultivation level of soul-searching skills, the more memories can be searched. With Li Xuanfeng's current cultivation level, he can only search for the memories of the past year.
Of course, the soul-searching technique also carries great risks.
If the spiritual power is not as strong as that of the person being searched, not only will the search fail, but the soul-searcher's spiritual power will also be seriously damaged. If the person being searched also uses this technique, there is a possibility that he or she will be searched counterattack.
The middle-aged man's spiritual power was not as strong as Li Xuanfeng, who was at the same level, not to mention that he was seriously injured at this time!
When Li Xuanfeng saw this technique before, he thought it was too vicious. Although he remembered it, he did not practice it. But this time he used it without hesitation. Just now, when he was questioning the three Corpse Demon Sect disciples, he practiced this soul-searching technique in his mind.
He was unwilling to believe the middle-aged man's words, nor did he dare to believe them easily. It would be better to get the information directly from his mind. Even if the middle-aged man's words were true, Li Xuanfeng would not let him go. It would be easier to search his soul directly.
As he obtained a large amount of information from the middle-aged man's mind, Li Xuanfeng learned the location of the Corpse Demon Cult branch and the cultivation level of its disciples.
"Is the spiritual foundation realm complete?" Li Xuanfeng's eyes flashed and he pondered. Soon, the hesitation in Li Xuanfeng's eyes turned into a fierce look.
Li Xuanfeng stripped off the middle-aged man's black and red robe and storage bag, and then a large amount of flames appeared in his hands again, instantly covering the middle-aged man who was already dying. The middle-aged man had already fainted when Li Xuanfeng searched his soul, but he woke up again because of the severe pain when he was ignited by the flames. He screamed a few times and then completely lost his breath.
The other two in the early stage of spiritual foundation had been completely burned into charcoal before the middle-aged man, leaving only seven motionless demon corpses.
Previously, Li Xuanfeng had experienced the massacre of the village by the Corpse Demon Cult and witnessed his parents being killed. However, because he had no strength at the time, he could only cry helplessly. His character had undergone a huge change. From being kind and active, he became calm and cruel.
Afterwards, he began to practice in Xuanling Sect. Under the care of everyone in Huayue Garden and influenced by the clever and kind character of his senior sister Shen Luoyan, his original temperament was restored to a great extent.
If he had never left Xuanling Sect, he might have returned to his Taoyuan Village mentality after successfully taking revenge in the future.
He had thought of enduring it and waiting until he reached a certain level of cultivation in the future before seeking revenge on the Corpse Demon Cult. However, along with his parents and villagers who were buried, the corpses were all dug up by the Corpse Demon Cult to be used to refine demon corpses.
The murderous intent that was originally hidden deep in Li Xuanfeng's heart was completely aroused, turning into a cruel and ruthless character. He could not forgive the Corpse Demon Cult for using the corpses of his parents and villagers to refine demon corpses.
Li Xuanfeng, who had never killed anyone, started his lifelong journey of killing when he saw the bodies of villagers being dug out and refined into demon corpses.
Li Xuanfeng felt that killing them with one blow was too easy, so he condensed flames to let them die slowly in pain, which was barely enough to relieve his hatred.
This is a huge change in one's mind and character, which can completely change a person. This is called a change of heart in the records of our ancestors!
Li Xuanfeng decided to break into the Corpse Demon Cult's branch alone and snatch all the bodies of his parents and villagers. He could not bear to see his parents and villagers being controlled by the Corpse Demon Cult and used for fighting.
He collected the seven demon corpses in Taoyuan Village at that time, condensed flames to cremate them into ashes, put them one by one in elixir bottles, and then put them into a separate storage bag. There was no urn in his storage ring, but there were many elixir bottles, so he had to put the ashes in the elixir bottles first and transfer them to the urn in the future.
If he buried the body in the soil again, he was worried that the Corpse Demon Cult would dig it out again and refine it into a demon corpse. After refining a demon corpse, the body would take a long time to decay on its own.
When Shen Hua saw that this place was so secretive and the six black-robed men who slaughtered the village accidentally broke in, he thought that no one would come again. Moreover, Li Xuanfeng was in the most sad time at that time, so he did not propose to cremate it directly. After a while, the corpse would decay and could no longer be used to refine the demon corpse.
Unexpectedly, the six men in black robes had already sent a message when they entered Taoyuan Village. A few days later, when the people from the Corpse Demon Cult saw that they had not responded to the message, they came to check, only to find that they had been killed.
The people of the Corpse Demon Cult discovered from the signs of the battle that the six people were killed instantly by someone with extremely high cultivation level. Moreover, the highest cultivation level of the six people killed was only the initial stage of spiritual foundation, and their status in the Corpse Demon Cult was extremely low, so they did not investigate further.
At this time, the ten people who stayed in Taoyuan Village thought that this place was secluded, so they refined the demon corpse and practiced here. They never expected to meet Li Xuanfeng who came back, and they were all burned to death by the furious Li Xuanfeng.
From the memories obtained from soul searching, it was learned that the middle-aged man's storage bag contained 100 demon corpses made from the corpses of villagers. These were successfully refined and were ready to be handed over to the branch leader, which was also the main reason why they stayed in Taoyuan Village. However, after Li Xuanfeng pondered for a while, he did not cremate these 100 corpses.
Li Xuanfeng flew around Taoyuan Village and scanned the area carefully using his spiritual sense. He felt relieved after confirming that there were no more members of the Corpse Demon Cult. He then turned around and entered the wooden house where he used to live with his parents.
He wanted to practice a technique here, called Shape-Change! This was a technique that could use spiritual power to change one's appearance and body shape. It was extremely rare in ancient times and had been lost in this era. It was a technique used by practitioners in the first realm.
When one's cultivation reaches the second realm, one's appearance can be transformed using cultivation, and naturally there is no need for such magic, but practitioners in the first realm cannot transform their appearance.
However, this kind of illusion technique has its drawbacks. Appearance can be transformed, but aura cannot. However, it is not too difficult for Li Xuanfeng, who possesses five kinds of spiritual power. Those who have a much higher cultivation level than him may not be able to succeed, but he is still very confident of achieving perfection in the spiritual foundation realm.
What's more, he already possessed many of the middle-aged man's memories through soul searching.
Three days later, a middle-aged man in a black and red robe calmly walked out of the wooden house and left the place at a very fast speed. When he came to the big rock in front of the alley, he couldn't help but look back at the wooden house again.
This was the middle-aged man that Li Xuanfeng had transformed into using the Alien Technique. The real middle-aged man had already turned into charcoal. Even the earth attribute on his body was the same. The Five Elements Venerable had already helped him hide his water and wood attributes earlier, and he used the Concealment Technique to hide his gold and fire attributes. At this time, even those who were very close to the middle-aged man could not recognize him.
In the wooden house he walked out of, there was a jade slip hanging from the beam, which was still shaking slightly.
The middle-aged man came to a swamp at full speed, stepped on a hidden place, and disappeared in the swamp.
When I could see clearly again, I had entered the cave under the swamp. The cave was extremely dark, and only the corridors connecting the caves were bright and inlaid with night-shining pearls.
"Senior Brother Pang!" The middle-aged man appeared in the aisle. At this time, a male disciple appeared here and addressed him respectfully.
The middle-aged man that Li Xuanfeng disguised himself as using the shape-changing technique was named Pang Kun.
Pang Kun nodded calmly and walked towards the cave in front of the aisle. The male disciples watched him leave with envy in their eyes.
The middle-aged man walking forward couldn't help but clench his right hand, making a slight crackling sound. He already knew that the demon corpse of the person with perfect spiritual foundation was his childhood friend, Sanniu!
When he arrived at the cave in the center, Pang Kun had regained his composure. He knocked on the cave door, bowed respectfully, clasped his fists, and said, "Brother Wang, I am here to report to you the results of refining the corpses in Taoyuan Village."
The idea that the strong are respected is deeply rooted in the Corpse Demon Sect. Regardless of age, they are only referred to as brothers based on their cultivation level.
"Come in!" A cold voice came from the cave, and then the stone door of the cave slowly rose and opened.
"Why did you come back alone? Where are your nine men?" After entering the cave, the stone door closed again. In the middle sat a young man wrapped in a black robe, with a numb face next to him. After his spiritual consciousness scanned Pang Kun again and again, he asked with a hint of doubt.
"They will be here soon, and I will rush to report to you as quickly as possible. Because they are too slow, I dare not delay the time to report to Senior Brother Wang." Pang Kun explained respectfully, bending over, with a skilled flattery in his voice.
"Well, good performance. Show it to me and see your refining results." The young man in black was very pleased after hearing this and nodded with satisfaction.
"This is the best one refined, reaching the level of perfection in the spiritual foundation realm." Pang Kun respectfully took out the body of a big man and reported.
"The remaining ones that are less well refined are all in this storage bag. I won't take them out to show off. Please have a look, senior brother." Pang Kun then respectfully held a storage bag in his hands and handed it to the young man in black, explaining.
"Not bad, not bad. I didn't expect that you could refine a demon corpse with a perfect spiritual foundation. Then I will have two demon corpses with perfect spiritual foundations. I decided to reward you with a demon corpse in the late spiritual foundation stage." When the young man in black saw this demon corpse, his eyes showed joy and he praised.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Wang, for the reward!" Pang Kun happily thanked the young man in black upon hearing this.
The young man in black did not take his eyes off the big demon corpse. He just reached out with one hand and grabbed the storage bag from Pang Kun's hand.
At this moment, something strange happened!
