Chapter 248: Gold Spirit Seed, Can It Have Gold Spirit Root (Overhaul)
Chapter 248: Golden Spirit Seeds, can’t they have Golden Spirit Roots? (Overhaul)
Chu Ning did not use his true identity at this moment, and was naturally worried about being encountered by Ao Langtian or other Daluo Sect Golden Pill monks.
However, what he is using now is the appearance of Li Qun when he entered Wolong Valley.
This is of course also so that if any monks from the Jiuhua Sect come here, they can recognize themselves.
The person opposite doesn't know me.
Chu Ning recognized the middle-aged monk who asked the question at this time.
This person was one of the late monks of Daluo Sect who came to Jiuhua Sect with Ao Xuan and others.
At first, because there were not many people from Daluo Sect, Chu Ning waited for a long time on the high platform for the competition.
So he basically recognized all the Daluo Sect monks.
For the vast majority of immortal cultivators, they can basically achieve photographic memory.
What's more, this person is still a late-stage foundation-building monk, so Chu Ning paid more attention to him at first.
However, the other two monks, a man and a woman, looked very familiar to each other, and Chu Ning had never seen them before.
"This Daluo Sect monk is so arrogant."
Chu Ning murmured in her heart and said:
"I am also a monk from the Yunxiao Alliance. I came here specially to the sect's headquarters. I wonder which sect these fellow Taoists are from?"
Although he had a vague guess based on the clothes of the other two people, he still had to ask one more question at this time.
After all, if the three of them were Daluo Sect monks, he said that he would naturally have to be more cautious about his identity.
The middle-aged man from the Da Luo Sect in the middle was about to scold him.
On the side, a young woman in green clothes who was in the early stage of foundation building heard Chu Ning say that she was from the Yunxiao Alliance, and the look of caution on her face suddenly disappeared.
Instead, he asked curiously:
“I am from Tianyin Pavilion, and these two senior brothers are from Daluo Sect and Red Maple Valley respectively.
Fellow Taoist, are you also from the Yunxiao League? I wonder which sect he is from? "
The green-clothed woman's ignorance of the world and the way she pocketed everything made the two male cultivators from Daluo Sect and Red Maple Valley smile bitterly.
"Junior Sister Han, you..."
When Chu Ning heard this, she felt relieved.
Hong Maple Valley usually doesn't hear much, but Chu Ning of Tianyin Pavilion hears a lot and knows that this sect has always been on good terms with Jiuhua Sect.
And in terms of strength, it is even stronger than that of Daluo Sect.
As long as Daluo Sect's family doesn't have the final say here.
Chu Ning immediately said directly: "I, Li Qun of Jiuhua Sect, have met three fellow Taoists."
"Jiuhua Sect!"
As soon as Chu Ning said this, the three people in front had different expressions.
The older monk from Red Maple Valley had a normal expression, but the face of the middle-aged man from Daluo Sect turned cold instantly.
After the competition three years ago and the subsequent incident in Wolong Valley, the relationship between the two sects has dropped to a freezing point.
The woman in green clothes immediately showed joy.
"Senior brother, are you from the Jiuhua Sect? Senior Sister Shang Xiaohan and the others are also here. They are patrolling and guarding in the other direction."
Upon hearing the words of the woman in green, a hint of joy flashed across Chu Ning's face.
Since Shang Xiaohan is here, the Jindan monk from that sect should also be here.
Immediately, Chu Ning cupped her hands towards the woman in green and said:
"Junior sister, I just received the order from my master and came to Honghukou from somewhere else.
I don’t know where our fellow sect members from the Jiuhua Sect are, and I want to find them to join them. "
"Okay, then I'll take you there!" the woman in green said, about to take Chu Ning away.
The older monk from Red Maple Valley was much older now, and he immediately said:
"Wait a minute! This senior brother says he is from Jiuhua Sect, but we don't recognize him.
To be on the safe side, it would be better to invite fellow Taoists from Jiuhua Sect to come over. "
The middle-aged man from Daluo Sect was also staring at Chu Ning with an unkind expression on his face.
"Yes, you said you are from Jiuhua Sect, do you have any proof?
Humph, I also know some of the Jiuhua Sect's late-stage foundation-building monks, but why have I never seen someone like you? "
Chu Ning knew that the people from Daluo Sect would not be happy when they saw him, so he did not care about them at this time.
He opened his mouth and said, "What the fellow Taoists said makes sense. Junior sister, I wonder if I could trouble you to send a message to Junior Sister Shang, just saying that I am here."
"Okay!" The woman in green nodded and agreed readily.
Immediately, she took out a teleportation note and activated it.
After less than a cup of tea, several figures quickly flew towards this direction.
The person at the front is none other than Shang Xiaohan.
When she saw Chu Ning, she immediately looked happy.
Shang Xiaohan and Chu Ning had entered Wolong Valley together, and were very familiar with this appearance.
Thinking about Chu Ning dragging You Jing to let her leave before, and then not hearing anything from her in the next few days, she opened her mouth to call out "Elder Brother".
However, after Chu Ning winked slightly, she reacted and immediately changed her words:
"Senior Brother Li, you are really a fool!"
"Junior Sister Shang!" Chu Ning nodded, and then asked:
"Which elder in the sect is here? Why don't you take me to meet him first?"
"The Supreme Elder is here, and the Great Elder and Master are also here." Shang Xiaohan said, turning to the others:
"Brothers, this is our senior brother from Jiuhua Sect. I will take him to see the elders first."
When the older monk from Red Maple Valley saw what Shang Xiaohan said, he knew he was right, so he raised his hand towards Chu Ning and said:
"Senior Brother Li, I offended you a lot just now. Please forgive me."
The Jiuhua Sect's status in the Yunxiao League has increased slightly in the past two years, and the Red Maple Valley is a middle-to-lower sect in the League.
In addition, Chu Ning was a late-stage Foundation Establishment monk, while this man was only a mid-stage Foundation Establishment monk, so his words were a bit more polite.
As for the Daluo Sect monk, he turned his head away with a cold face at this moment.
"You're welcome, fellow Taoist!" Chu Ning smiled and arched her hands towards the Red Maple Valley monk.
Then he said to the young monk in green:
"Junior sister, thank you very much just now."
"You're welcome, you're welcome!" The girl in green waved her beautiful hands.
Then a pair of round eyes rolled around, scanning the faces of Shang Xiaohan and Chu Ning.
Then he said with a smile:
"It turns out that Sister Shang said before that she would come here to find a senior brother, that is Senior Brother Li. I..."
"Han Qiao'er, don't talk too much!"
Shang Xiaohan was afraid that the woman in green would talk too much and expose Chu Ning's identity, so she immediately stopped him angrily.
The woman in green, known as Han Qiaoer, clearly misunderstood the meaning of Shang Xiaohan's words.
After waiting for Chu Ning and Shang Xiaohan to leave, Han Qiaoer's eyes started rolling again.
At the same time, I was murmuring in my heart.
"Sister Shang looks so nervous and angry just now. It seems that she cares about this senior brother very much.
However, this Senior Brother Li doesn’t look very good either. "
Chu Ning and Shang Xiaohan both wanted to ask each other a lot, but they also knew that this was not the time to chat.
So he flew forward without saying a word.
Soon, Shang Xiaohan took Chu Ning to an unknown mountain peak.
At this time, Shang Xiaohan opened his mouth and said:
"Senior brother, each sect in the alliance has its own station here. The seniors and brothers in the sect are stationed on this peak."
Chu Ning nodded, looked down, and found that this peak must have been temporarily transformed, not only a formation restriction was installed.
Various caves of different sizes have also been opened on this mountain peak.
It's just that the mountain peak is not that big, so naturally the caves can't be as big as those on Mount Jiuhua.
Moreover, it is also relatively close.
Shang Xiaohan threw a transmission talisman in, the formation restrictions on the mountain were opened, and she took Chu Ning into the cave.
The two of them had just entered the cave when Fu Lihong's figure had already appeared.
"Chun Ning!"
Fu Lihong had naturally seen Chu Ning's appearance before, and immediately expressed surprise.
After she finished speaking, two more figures soon appeared outside the cave.
It was Tang Xuan, the supreme elder of Jiuhua Sect, and Gong Yuyuan, the great elder.
As soon as they saw Chu Ning back safely, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Chu Ning knew that there was a restriction on this mountain peak, and it was impossible to let people listen to him casually, so he directly restored his appearance.
Then he bowed his hands and saluted several people:
"Disciple Chu Ning, I have met the Supreme Elder and all the elders."
Before Tang Xuan and the others spoke, Shang Xiaohan, who had been holding back his words for a long time, couldn't help but said:
"Senior Brother Chu, where have you been these past few days? You asked me to escape first when I met the monk from the Xuanyin Sect that day.
But when I returned to the sect and asked to report to the master, I came back, but there was no news from you for several days. "
Fu Lihong also answered the conversation at this time:
"When I heard that you had encountered a strong enemy, the Supreme Elder came to Honghukou immediately, and he was even worried that you would encounter a monk from Daluo Sect.
I negotiated with the Nascent Soul cultivator from Daluo Sect, and fortunately you are safe and sound. "
When Chu Ning heard this, she cast a grateful look at Tang Xuan and then said:
“That day, my fellow monk and I met a golden elixir protector from the Xuanyin Sect named You Jing.
After Junior Sister Shang left, the two of us were fighting when Ao Langtian suddenly came over.
I was worried that he would be harmful to me, so I ran away quickly. I didn't dare to go back to the sect, but hid in Honghu City for a few days. "
Upon hearing this, a hint of coldness flashed across Tang Xuan's calm eyes.
"It is really related to their Daluo Sect. Fortunately, you are fine this time, otherwise, even that Ao Langtian, I want him to look good.
Fortunately, Ao Langtian poured cold water on our Jiuhua Sect and told the monks in the alliance that the people from the Xuanyin Sect were injured by people from our Jiuhua Sect. "
"What he said is correct." Chu Ning smiled at this time.
"That You Jing was really hurt by me at that time, but Ao Langtian didn't really see me.
Maybe he chased You Jing because he couldn't find me. I heard that he had a fight with a late Jindan cultivator from the Xuanyin Sect later on. "
"You Jing was injured by you?"
Upon hearing this, even Tang Xuan and the other three couldn't help but look at each other in shock.
Gong Yuyuan was staring at Chu Ning at this moment, and said in a strange tone:
"This You Jing is not an ordinary Golden Core cultivator, he should be a monk whose peak in the early stage of the Golden Core is close to the middle stage of the Golden Core.
I have heard some news about this person before. It is said that the Xuanyin Sect's golden elixir protector and magical powers are quite good.
Master Nephew Chu, you were actually able to escape completely from his hands, and you were even able to cut off one of his arms. Tsk, tsk, good! good! "
"We don't want to spread the word about this matter." Tang Xuan said immediately at this moment.
"Honghukou is in a mess right now. If news about Chu Ning spreads, it will be detrimental to him."
Naturally, everyone was spared and nodded.
Chu Ning had made his affairs clear for the time being, and then asked everyone curiously:
"I heard from the monks in Honghu City these days that the chaos in Honghukou was due to the birth of spiritual seeds, but I don't know what the specific situation is?"
"This news is accurate." Tang Xuan responded at this time, and then told Chu Ning the general situation.
Overall, it was roughly the same as what Chu Ning had heard before.
However, as a Yuanying monk, what Tang Xuan learned was naturally more detailed and accurate than what Chu Ning heard from the foundation-building monks.
According to Tang Xuan, the spiritual realm of this spiritual species is being born and formed, so the spatial boundary with the outside world is not fixed.
Therefore, as rumored by the outside world, the three major forces are all competing to occupy territory.
So that after the final formation of the spiritual realm, there will be a spatial boundary point within your own sphere of influence where you can enter the spiritual realm.
But what Chu Ning didn't understand before was.
After several days of fighting, the Demonic Alliance and the Tianji Alliance have each occupied about 40% of the territory.
The Yunxiao Alliance only grabbed about 20% of the territory.
Before, they each occupied territory, but there wasn't much conflict.
But starting yesterday.
The Demonic Alliance and the Tianji Alliance have all divided up their existing territories.
There are already signs of extending their hands into the Yunxiao Alliance's territory.
Therefore, Tang Xuan and other monks who were already at Honghukou were naturally summoned by the Yunxiao Alliance and began to work together to defend the territory of the Yunxiao Alliance.
“The Great Luo Sect was the first to intervene here, and now they have the most say. Even the talkers in the alliance are betraying their feelings.
Our Jiuhua Sect was placed at the very edge of the area controlled by the Yunxiao Alliance, at the junction with the Demonic Alliance. "
When Tang Xuan said this, his eyes were slightly angry.
But it seems that the Yunxiao League also put some pressure on Jiuhua Sect, so Tang Xuan could not directly refuse.
At this time, Tang Xuancai continued to say to Chu Ning:
"If nothing goes wrong, the Demonic Alliance will officially start launching some attacks in a day or two.
Since our Jiuhua Sect has been assigned this task by the alliance, we cannot relax. The sect will arrange for some more personnel to come tomorrow.
You can simply stay here as Li Qun, they won't be able to recognize you.
Even if you recognize it, with me here, no one from Daluo Sect would dare to take action against you at this time. "
"Okay!" Chu Ning did not refuse at this moment and agreed.
Since the sect needs it, he should naturally contribute.
Moreover, there are Nascent Soul cultivators sitting here, and there are so many Golden Core cultivators here.
In higher-level battles, they will naturally take action.
But when it comes to dealing with foundation-building monks, Chu Ning is not too worried.
Chu Ning can even kill ordinary foundation-building monks, even late-stage foundation-building monks.
At this time, Chu Ning remembered some information about spiritual seeds that she had learned before, and couldn't help but asked curiously:
"I heard that this spiritual species only appears once in a long time, and each time it has different attributes. I don't know what the attributes of the spiritual species that may appear at Honghukou this time are?"
"If nothing else, it should be a metallic spirit species." Tang Xuan replied at this moment.
"There are two monks in the alliance who practice metal-based skills, and they both have obvious reactions."
"Metallic spiritual species?"
After hearing this, Chu Ning felt hesitant at first, but then, she suddenly realized...
The attribute of this spiritual species is actually a golden spiritual species. This is great!
The Five Elements Chaos Art he wants to practice, and if he wants to practice it to the most powerful level, he must be a fellow practitioner of the Five Elements.
However, Chu Ning does not have golden spiritual roots.
Just not being able to practice the Five Elements together is not what Chu Ning values most.
Chu Ning clearly remembered that when he refreshed the Wuhuo Spiritual Body, the system prompted him to refresh it after detecting that he had fire spirit roots.
Therefore, if you really refresh your spirit body according to the principle of the five elements' mutual development, then the earth attribute spirit body should be a metallic spirit body after that.
But I don’t have a golden spirit root, so I may not be able to refresh it!
It would be fine if the spirit body could not be refreshed. If the refresh talent was simply cut off, that would be really bad.
Before that, even if Chu Ning vaguely guessed this, there was nothing he could do.
But it’s different now. With the spiritual root cultivation method left by Master Shenmeng, if you can obtain the aura of the golden spiritual seed, you can cultivate the golden spiritual root!
Thinking of this, Chu Ning suddenly realized how important the formation of the spiritual realm and the appearance of spiritual seeds in the future were for him!
But at this moment, he naturally stopped talking about this matter to everyone for the time being.
Even if there is no need for Chu Ning, Jiuhua Sect will try its best to fight for this opportunity.
After all, there are also many people in Jiuhua Sect who practice metal-based skills.
Elder Luo, who the sect went to Wolong Mountain with last time, and the monks on Jin Yuan Peak he led, majored in metal-based skills.
I think the sect probably hopes that after putting in some effort this time, when the spiritual realm opens later, the sect can also get a share of the pie.
Immediately, Tang Xuan and others also gave Chu Ning a brief introduction to some of the sects and forces of the three alliances here, as well as the famous monks.
After the general matter was figured out, everyone dispersed.
Shang Xiaohan enthusiastically took Chu Ning to choose a cave.
Well, right next to her cave.
Chu Ning also vaguely felt at this time that Shang Xiaohan, who had been a bit reserved before, had been restrained by You Jing a few days ago.
It seems a little less reserved and a little more enthusiastic.
At this time, a beautiful figure appeared in Chu Ning's mind involuntarily.
"In total, it has been more than ten years since we separated from Cen Zijin.
But I don’t know how she was doing in Yaochi Palace? What kind of cultivation level is he now? "
After entering the cave, Chu Ning thought about the various things in the Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands, plus he had not rested in recent days, so he slowly fell asleep.
Wake up feeling refreshed.
When I left the cave, I found that there were many more colleagues in this peak.
But it was Elder Luo of Jin Yuan Peak who brought some disciples to come to the rescue.
There are nearly a hundred people here who are monks with Jiuhua Sect's foundation level and above.
This happened for two days in a row, but nothing happened.
Chu Ning, Shang Xiaohan and other foundation-building monks were also arranged to go outside for alternate patrols.
The area that Jiuhua Sect is responsible for is a hundred miles in radius, and the actual border with the Demon Alliance is about thirty miles long, so the area is not particularly large.
As for other areas bordering the Demon Alliance, other sects are responsible for them.
There are many Foundation-Building monks patrolling the border of Thirty Mile Land, and there are Jindan and Nascent Soul monks stationed at the Yunxiao League in the rear. Those who want to come to the Demonic League will not invade rashly.
Chu Ning also met many sect acquaintances here, including Lu Jiakang, Yuan Rongzhang, Cui Rongrong, and even Wang Ping.
But on this day, Chu Ning and others were about to go out for patrol, but they were stopped by Tang Xuan who came back from outside.
Tang Xuan opened his mouth and brought extremely surprising news to everyone.
"After discussion among our three parties, Yunxiao Alliance, Tianji Alliance and Demonic Alliance, all Nascent Soul cultivators will withdraw from Honghukou.
Golden elixir monks can sit in command, but cannot participate in specific turf battles. "
"Uncle, why is this?"
Before Chu Ning could speak, Fu Lihong had already asked.
Everyone also looked at Tang Xuan in confusion.
The Supreme Elder of Jiuhua Sect said slowly:
“The main concern is that there will be a big fight, and too many Nascent Soul monks will die at this stage.
It will take a lot of time for the spiritual realm to be formed. At present, some other alliances in the Western Alliance Continent have received news one after another.
Naturally, they want to come and get a share of the pie, and our three alliances are also very determined. This place will be divided among the three families, and no other forces will be allowed to come in.
And if the situation is divided like this, the Nascent Soul monk will intervene.
If a full-scale battle breaks out and too many Yuanying monks die, other forces will have an opportunity to take advantage of it. "
As soon as Tang Xuan said this, everyone roughly understood it.
As for the golden elixir being unable to participate in the war, it is probably for the same reason.
Sure enough, the next moment Tang Xuan continued:
"The same is true for the Golden Core cultivator. According to our speculation, the power of the spiritual seed this time is quite high. After the formation of the spiritual realm this time, the stability of the spiritual realm will be relatively strong.
But in the end, the Nascent Soul monks may not be able to enter, and there is a high probability that the Golden Core monks from various alliances and sects will become the main force entering the spiritual realm.
Therefore, all three of us do not want too many Jindan monks to end up participating in the war and thus perish. "
The three Jindan elders looked at each other, and then looked at Chu Ning and other foundation-building monks.
In this way, the battle for control of the area falls on the foundation-building monks.
Tang Xuan continued at this time:
"Currently, all the major sects have sent messages back to the sect to invite the relevant formation masters to come over as soon as possible to prepare to set up formations at the edges of the areas they control.
In this way, if Yuanying and Jindan monks do not take action, the probability that the foundation-building monks can break through the formation control is relatively small.
The scope of the site is relatively solid.
However, if the formation masters from various sects need to prepare relevant formation equipment, they may not be able to arrive until tomorrow at the earliest. "
As he said that, Tang Xuan's face became more serious.
"So the next half day and tonight will be the most critical moments for various forces to compete for control!"
Chu Ning and others can naturally understand the meaning of these words, which also means that this period is also the time when they are most likely to face attacks from the Demon Alliance monks.
It can even be said that from this moment on, the dangerous moment has arrived.
Gong Yuyuan said at this moment:
"In this case, we will send all our foundation-building monks. No matter what, we have to hold on for most of the day."
Tang Yu nodded, "That's what I meant!"
“During the discussion today, all the Nascent Soul monks in the alliance agreed.
The size of the contribution in the battle for control of the territory will determine the number of people entering each sect and the proportion of resource allocation after the spiritual realm is opened.
Every time the spiritual realm is opened, it will always help some sects or monks to rise.
We cannot miss this opportunity. "
Speaking of this, Tang Yu's eyes fell on Chu Ning and other foundation-building monks.
"In this case, whether the sect can get this opportunity depends on you."
Everyone in the Jiuhua Sect has always valued the sect's honor. Before Tang Yu and others could continue, behind Chu Ning, a group of foundation-building monks were already shouting.
"We will definitely defend this territory!"
"As long as we are at the border, we will never let the people of the Demonic Alliance step into the territory controlled by our Jiuhua Sect."
...
Even female cultivators such as Shang Xiaohan and Cui Rongrong looked ready to die.
Chu Ning, on the other hand, looked relatively calm at the moment.
At this time, Tang Yu, the Yuanying cultivator who was the supreme elder, turned his gaze to Chu Ning and said solemnly:
"Chu Ning, I have something to ask of you."
