Volume 1: Rebellion in Chang'an Chapter 59: Soul-Separating Miasma
"who is it!"
As soon as Lu Qingshan approached here, a Jindan cultivator came forward to stop him.
The importance of spiritual veins is well understood by both the Shanhai Pavilion and the demon clan.
So even though Lu Qingshan was a disciple of Shanhai Pavilion, he was stopped before he got too close to the spiritual vein.
"Qi training disciple Lu Qingshan has come to support the uncles in guarding the spiritual veins."
The Jindan cultivator frowned and was about to refuse, but Lu Qingshan immediately added before the Jindan cultivator could speak.
"Although my cultivation is low, I know a thing or two about the methods of the demons. Perhaps I can provide some help to you uncles in guarding the spirit veins."
The Jindan cultivator was stunned and looked at Lu Qingshan with scrutiny: "Do you know a thing or two about the methods of the demons?"
Lu Qingshan nodded.
"How to prove it?" Even the leader of Shanhai Pavilion was not very clear about the methods of the demons. He had no reason to easily believe such arrogant words from a Qi-refining cultivator.
"Uncle Master, please look inside your soul and you will know that what I said is true."
The Jindan cultivator was stunned.
Subconsciously, he followed Lu Qingshan's instructions and quickly checked the soul within the palace between his eyebrows.
"What's this?!"
The Jindan cultivator exclaimed in surprise.
It turned out that although he seemed to be safe and sound, the soul in the palace between his eyebrows had been shrouded in a layer of light black mist that could not be removed.
"The method used by the Lord of Ten Thousand Poisons is the Soul-Separation Miasma." Lu Qingshan said in a deep voice.
"What is the Soul-Separating Miasma?" The Jindan cultivator looked at Lu Qingshan solemnly: "What else do you know?"
"I estimate that it's not just you, uncle-master. The other uncle-masters guarding the spiritual veins should have been infected by this miasma as well." Lu Qingshan reminded .
The Jindan cultivator's face darkened, realizing the seriousness of the situation: "Wait here for a moment."
Then, the Jindan cultivator turned around and hurried inside.
He needed to inform the leading Lianxu cultivator of this news.
Lu Qingshan stood there, waiting for news.
If nothing unexpected happens, with this he will definitely be able to join the team guarding the spiritual veins of Wuya Peak.
He had verified the feasibility of this method many times in the Xujie copy in his previous life.
As for the black fog in the Jindan cultivator's soul, it was indeed the Soul-Separation Miasma of the Ten Thousand Poisons Demon Lord as he said.
How did he know?
This is not a difficult task. When the Xujie copy was first opened, "Jiu Tian" also released the background information of Shanhai Pavilion on its official website.
Among these materials, there are detailed records of the Shanhai Pavilion's annihilation of the sect.
"In the battle to destroy the sect, not a single monk from the Shanhai Pavilion chose to escape, and the entire sect went to die together."
"The once prosperous Shanhai Pavilion was destroyed in less than a day by the hands of the Ten Thousand Poison Demon Lord. This was not only because the demons were powerful, but also because of their insidious methods."
"The Master of Ten Thousand Poisons is cunning. He pretended to give Shanhai Pavilion one night to consider surrendering, seemingly giving Shanhai Pavilion enough time to organize its forces for a final resistance."
"In fact, the Ten Thousand Poison Demon Lord never thought that Shanhai Pavilion would choose to submit to the demon clan. This move was just to give his Soul-Separating Miasma enough time to infiltrate the entire Shanhai Pavilion."
"The Soul-Separating Miasma is colorless, odorless, and non-toxic. It spreads over a very wide area. Shanhai Pavilion is not very familiar with the methods of the Ten Thousand Poison Demon Lord, and almost everyone in the sect has been infected by the miasma."
“…”
In Lu Qingshan's view, this is equivalent to the official strategy revealed by the "Jiutian" game planner to the players.
It’s just that the information is not very straightforward, and players need to analyze and extract useful information by themselves and then use it.
Unfortunately, most players don’t have the heart to read the boring text background information provided by the official.
Even if you go and see it, you won't think about these deeper things.
At most, they would just glance at the book and read ten lines at a glance . There are very few people who would study and think deeply like Lu Qingshan .
For 90 percent of players.
When it comes to going to a dungeon, just go for it recklessly.
Without going through a beating, they won't know how to use their brains to play games.
…
Due to the special effect of the Soul-Separation Miasma being non-toxic and the fact that there was no defense against it, even the chief cultivator of the Shanhai Pavilion did not realize that the Soul-Separation Miasma had quietly infiltrated all the monks in the sect.
The effect of the Soul-Separation Miasma is to increase the demonic damage suffered by the cultivator by 20%.
This is one of the signature skills of the Lord of Ten Thousand Poisons.
This was also one of the reasons why Shanhai Pavilion was quickly defeated.
As one of the first ancient sects to face the invasion of the demons, Shanhai Pavilion was manipulated by the demons from beginning to end due to its ignorance of their methods.
…
"Come in with me." When he appeared in front of Lu Qingshan again, the Jindan cultivator's face had become gloomy and somewhat ugly.
Obviously, he had verified the truthfulness of what Lu Qingshan said .
Under the guidance of the Jindan cultivator, Lu Qingshan passed many high-level cultivators and went straight into the depths of the spiritual vein.
Until a new status [Abundant Spiritual Energy] appeared in Lu Qingshan’s attribute column: If you practice the skills here, the experience points gained will be greatly improved.
"Are you Lu Qingshan?" A middle-aged male cultivator with a worried look on his brows looked at Lu Qingshan and asked.
This is the cultivator of the Void Refining Realm who guards the fourth-grade spiritual vein of Wuya Peak, Yuanyang Zhenzun.
Seeing Lu Qingshan nod, Yuan Yang Zhenzun asked again: "What exactly is the soul-leaving miasma you are talking about?"
Lu Qingshan told Yuan Yang Zhenzun the effect of the Soul-Separation Miasma truthfully.
"Is there any way to remove this soul-leaving miasma?"
"The soul-separation miasma itself is not toxic, so cultivators only need to use their own spiritual power to slowly wear it off. The soul-separation miasma is hidden and can spread widely. I estimate that at this moment, most of the cultivators in our Shanhai Pavilion have been infected by this miasma. Uncle Yuanyang, please notify the sect master as soon as possible. In addition, the soul-separation miasma itself is not overbearing. If you are prepared, you can easily prevent the soul-separation miasma from invading the soul."
Time was running out, so Lu Qingshan introduced the details of the Soul-Separation Miasma to him without waiting for Yuan Yang Zhenzun to ask him in detail.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Yang Zhenzun also realized the urgency of the situation, and without waiting for further words, he took out the sect token from his storage ring.
There was a flash of light on the token.
A divine thought emanated from it.
He wanted to pass on this information quickly.
Due to his identity, he has no way to communicate directly with the sect leader.
Therefore, the message can only be passed up layer by layer through message relay in the middle, which takes more time and cannot afford any delay.
"Pass the order down, tell everyone to hurry up and drive away the soul-leaving miasma." Yuan Yang Zhenzun came back to his senses and gave the order in a low voice.
Yuan Yang Zhenzun looked at Lu Qingshan meaningfully, and finally did not ask any more questions: "Since you know a little about the methods of the demons, you can stay here for the time being. You may be useful in the future."
——The situation was urgent and he didn't have any more time to waste.
