Chapter 168 July 1st

By the Bi Bo Lake, in the small courtyard belonging to Xiao Mian, in the quiet room.

"Gui Lao, what do you think?"

"What do you mean by what?"

"Do you think my cheap master really hasn't made a breakthrough, or has he already made a breakthrough but is pretending not to have a breakthrough?"

"How should I know! I'm not your master! That's not my master!"

Xiao Mian didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard that. He shouldn't have asked Gui Tou such a question.

But when he thought of Leng Ningyu again, Xiao Mian's mood couldn't get better. If Leng Ningyu really didn't make a breakthrough to the high level of Jindan, it would undoubtedly be bad news. After all, in the upcoming war, a cultivator like him in the foundation-building period might not have a chance to go to the battlefield at all. The real decisive factor is still the Jindan cultivator. If Leng Ningyu successfully advances, the Five Elements Sect will greatly increase both morale and strength.

Now it seems that all the hopes of the Five Elements Sect are on Dan Qiu Sheng!

However, Xiao Mian doesn't like to bet his hopes on others. It's better to practice more. If it really doesn't work out, he will have an extra life-saving skill!

With this in mind, Xiao Mian used one of his divine thoughts to continuously run the Three Pure Ones Bible, hoping to consolidate his cultivation as soon as possible; at the same time, he practiced the fourth stage of the "Ten Thousand Poisons Curse", condensing the ice spirit cold poison that turned into poisonous mist into strands of poison essence, and blending it into his blood; he also used one of his thoughts to observe his five internal organs. Because he had cultivated the five elements of divine light, Xiao Mian stored the five elements of divine light in the five internal organs respectively. The liver belongs to wood, the heart belongs to fire, the spleen belongs to earth, the lungs belong to gold, and the kidneys belong to water. The five elements of divine light are in their own places and do not interfere with each other, which makes Xiao Mian feel relieved.

Although Xiao Mian's five internal organs had changed a lot after being washed by the spiritual energy flow of the Five Qis, when he first sent the Gengjin Divine Light into the lungs, Xiao Mian still felt a stinging pain like a needle. Then, when the Kuishui Divine Light entered the kidneys, it was as if there was a chill, and when the Lihuo Divine Light entered the heart, it was hot. When all the five elements of divine light entered the body, not only did the previous discomfort disappear, but Xiao Mian felt warm all over, which was very comfortable.

After Guitou explained his doubts, Xiao Mian realized that the five elements of divine light entering the body was essentially similar to the body refining technique, which was considered to have tempered the five internal organs, which was an unexpected surprise.

Of course, this was also because Xiao Mian practiced the five elements together. If he was like Lu Chengzhi, who specialized in the Gengjin Divine Light, he would never dare to let the Gengjin Divine Light stay in the lungs for too long. Over time, the five elements would be unbalanced, the five internal organs would be displaced, and Lu Chengzhi's body would have problems.

In the following time, Xiao Mian continued to follow the steps that Wu Lingzi had given him, tempering the five elements of divine light in his body over and over again. This was all a slow and steady process, and there was no room for tricks. Even if he practiced on the Five Elements Spirit Platform, it would be useless.

Xiao Mian did not practice the "Soul Separation Method", firstly because the spirit refining lineage focuses on long-term practice, and a short-term intensive practice does not have much effect, and secondly because practicing the "Soul Separation Method" is quite mentally exhausting. According to Leng Ningyu's words just now, it is obvious that the Demon Shadow Sect and Lu Chengzhi may attack the mountain gate at any time. At this extraordinary time, it is better to temporarily give up the practice of the "Soul Separation Method".

Another month passed, Xiao Mian's cultivation was consolidated in the middle stage of the foundation-building period, and he also completed the last stage of the "Ten Thousand Poisons Curse", reaching the third perfect reincarnation of the "Ten Thousand Poisons Curse". His physical strength was further improved, and the power of the Ice Soul Finger was also greatly enhanced because the Ice Soul Cold Poison was refined into the blood. Now Xiao Mian's finger was enough to freeze a four-foot diameter ice circle. As for the Five Elements Divine Light, there was not much progress. After all, according to Wu Lingzi, this process may take decades or even hundreds of years to refine the Five Elements Divine Light to the point where the Five Elements Spirit Sword can be refined.

On the first day of July, the Gate of Rest was opened, and everything went wrong.

On this day, a figure came from the Five Elements Mountain, wearing a white robe with gold edges, a golden crown on his head, a golden belt around his waist, and golden boots on his feet. He walked leisurely on the rugged mountain road, not hurried or slow, showing a calm and calm attitude. This person was the first master of the younger generation of the Five Elements Gate at that time - the grandson of Yuan Yuan Zhenren of Jin Xiaofeng - Lu Chengzhi!

When he arrived a hundred feet outside the gate of the Five Elements Gate, Lu Chengzhi stopped. He naturally knew where the gate of the Five Elements Gate was, and he also knew the power of the Five Elements Reversal Formation.

"I am Lu Chengzhi, a disciple of the Great Elder Yuanyuan of Jinxiao Peak. I am returning to the mountain today. Please open the gate, Junior Brother, who protects the mountain!"

Straightening his chest, Lu Chengzhi shouted towards the sky on the top of the mountain. The rolling sound waves spread out layer by layer, shaking the clouds and overflowing the mist. The echo was endless. There was no movement at the gate of the Five Elements Gate. Lu Chengzhi didn't seem to be in a hurry. After shouting, he stopped and stood leisurely on the top of the mountain, watching the clouds rolling in the air, as if he was not the one shouting just now.

The Five Elements Gate did not move. Instead, on a small hill ten miles away from the Five Elements Gate, three figures looked far away in the direction of the Five Elements Gate.

"What do you think: Can a kid named Lu open the gate of the Five Elements Sect?"

"I don't think it's possible! I heard that crazy woman Leng Ningyu took advantage of Yuan Yuan's retreat to clean up the entire Jinxiao Peak. There are not many people who obey the Lu family..."

"Hmph! Do you think that kid doesn't know? Although Lu Chengzhi is young, he is already at the peak of the foundation building stage. If he goes one step further, he will be comparable to us. What's more terrifying is his scheming and scheming. He didn't let us go to the mountain gate directly, but went to knock on the door alone. If it is open, it would be the best. We will take advantage of the situation to kill in and save the trouble of breaking the mountain protection formation; if it is not open, we will help the Jinxiao Peak lineage to regain power, instead of our Demon Shadow Sect bullying the Five Elements Sect!"

The one who said this was Duan Yuntao who appeared in Lingchuan Market. Although he used the Shadowless Demon Knife to plot against Leng Ningyu that day, he was also severely injured by Leng Ningyu's Ice Soul Divine Light. He has been suffering from cold poison in the past few years. Not long ago, with the help of Yuan Yan, the wife of the Demon Shadow Sect, he cleared the cold poison in his body. Because he hated Leng Ningyu, he took the initiative to ask for orders and became one of the three Jindan masters who attacked the Five Elements Sect this time.

Three golden cores, this is the lineup of the Demon Shadow Sect to attack the Five Elements Sect. Even Lü Chengzhi is just a cover.

If it is in Zhongzhou or the other three states, it is a foolish dream to want to capture a sect with only three golden cores - even the smallest small sect. But in Nanyue State, this is enough, especially for a small sect like the Five Elements Sect that has lost the protection of the Yuanying ancestor for thirty years. You must know that the Five Elements Sect usually has only three golden cores, and the eldest elder Yuan Yuan has second thoughts. With the increase of one and the decrease of the other, with four against two, no matter how powerful Dan Qiu Sheng is, he can only suffer in vain!

The Five Elements Sect, which has been passed down for ten thousand years, finally ushered in an expected disaster.
