A Lack of Ideals and Convictions
"How come your cultivation of this 'furnace' has a background? Do all forces participate?"
"Very close."
Su Luo's lips twitched; she felt that under Dao Lord's influence, this world had become too chaotic.
After thinking for a moment, Su Luo swallowed the Yin-Yang Transformation Pill in one gulp, feeling the nourishment of her physical body.
Based on the speed of physical and spiritual improvement and the rate of absorption, there is no need to worry about these things. Su Luo's cultivation is mainly driven by himself and his skills and experience. Others are affected by pills because their cultivation is dominated by pills.
Yili Zhenren nodded in satisfaction again as he watched Su Luo swallow the pill.
"I'll communicate with the higher-ups in the Yunmeng Kingdom now, and try to ensure we have unimpeded access to the Azure Cloud Sect..."
Qi circulated within his body, and his Attributes slowly increased. The Magic Vessel sped through the night sky, passing over Pagoda City, and flew towards the Azure Cloud Sect.
The clouds outside the window shimmered with a silvery-gray light under the Moonlight, and the distant mountains, undulating and winding, resembled the reclining body of a sleeping beauty, with soft curves and a plump, warm feel.
"Han Fairy, this Qi Awakening Ritual is extraordinary. It can only be performed between 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM daily. It requires a sacred site where Qi gathers, and must be presided over and controlled by a professional cultivator to draw the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the body."
In an elegant room, Sam Daoist held a teacup. The tea was a fine spiritual tea, its liquor a vibrant green, exuding a rich Qi aura. However, he had no time to savor it. His gaze, filled with a hint of doubt, swept back and forth between the two people before him several times. In the end, he simply gave a straightforward introduction.
He didn't know why the Han Fairy was taking such good care of this wretched, ashen-faced poor ghost huddled in a cage, but since the Fairy had spoken, he did as she asked.
"Spiritual awakening can cleanse the body of mortal impurities, reshape the Spiritual Root, weaken cultivation bottlenecks and obstacles, stabilize the Dao Foundation of cultivation, enhance Xiantian aptitude, and broaden the upper limit of cultivation. However, if the right time, place, and master are not all in place, the Ritual will be difficult to complete and its effects will be lost."
Three hours had passed since Mu Hongyuan put Ansen back in his clothes. Mu Hongyuan was in charge of rebuilding the body and found some pills to help Ansen nourish his body.
Ansen, on the other hand, receives information from this era and begins to weave a second Fairy Tale.
Are the conditions really that rigid?
Ansen, who was sitting to the side writing furiously, looked up and asked.
"That's how you die." Sam Daoist's tone left no room for argument. "Even Violet Palace Adept cannot awaken a spirit without proper status and a specific time for the Ritual. This is a rule set by Heavenly Dao, and no one can change it at will."
While giving a serious reply, Sam Daoist was also pondering how this man could be so close to the Fairy.
Ansen reversed half of his yin and yang, and yet he gained the favor of the Fairy. Could it be...?
Do Fairies like women?
Mu Hongyuan pondered for a moment, then transmitted his voice to Ansen:
"Our current goal is to meet with the others after the Qi Awakening Ritual, through the Yin-Yang Plan."
Since the Scholars have already been included in the plan, they will most likely appear near the Dieyi Daojun's dojo.
Ansen understood perfectly, giving him a knowing look.
"Then I'll set my Fairy Tale ending as a happy ending, plus some other things."
Mu Hongyuan ended the telepathic transmission, turned to Sam Daoist, tapped his fingers lightly twice on the armrest as if considering his words, and spoke after a moment:
"Fellow Daoist Sam, I wonder if the Yin-Yang Plan can continue? My acquaintance will remain as is, and for the other spots... how about adding me in?"
When Sam Daoist heard Mu Hongyuan entrust him with this task, he had just shown a slight smile, but when he heard that Mu Hongyuan wanted to personally take charge, his smile froze.
"This..."
Sam Daoist immediately figured out what the outcome would be.
After today's Qi Awakening Ritual, we will set off immediately. At that time, other great cultivators and even Violet Palace Adept will definitely see Han Fairy.
Given the graceful bearing of the Han Fairy, how could she not be valued?
Such a beautiful woman, being a transgender person is truly a terrible waste!
"Han Fairy, you possess cultivation and rely on the Immortal Sect. Why bother striving for the immortal path of a Dao Lord!" He put down his teacup, leaned forward, and spoke with a sincere tone that bordered on urgency.
Mu Hongyuan shook his head, his expression hidden behind the veil, but his tone was firm. "My mind is made up, and I beg you to grant my request."
Sam Daoist looked troubled, and just as Mu Hongyuan was about to lift the veil, he clapped his hands:
"That's enough! That's enough!"
He took a deep breath, as if he had made a tremendous decision, and lowered his voice, saying, "However, I have a plan that can prevent the Fairy from experiencing a reversal of yin and yang!"
"Please speak." Mu Hongyuan's hand stopped at the edge of the veil.
Sam Daoist slowly uttered a single word, his voice so low that only the three of them could hear it—
"Bao Mi Agreement"
Upon hearing the translation from the Survival System, Mu Hongyuan's eyelids twitched, and Ansen, who was writing furiously beside him, paused, unconsciously raising his head as well.
His language translation skills seem quite remarkable.
"The Dao Lord still has a soft spot for top-tier cultivation vessels. In addition, due to the legacy of the Yin-Yang Plan, some powerful forces or top families actually have special quotas to send talented juniors to cultivate there, but they are not subject to the Yin-Yang transformation, so that they can leave later. This is limited to female cultivators..."
Sam Daoist explained gently, and it was clear that this kind of reversal of yin and yang among three thousand men and women had occurred before.
How do I obtain it?
Seeing that Mu Hongyuan had made up his mind, Sam Daoist sighed and began to act as an emotionless commentator.
"To be honest, the Five Elements Sect happens to have some vacant spots, but I can't make the decision..."
"Upon investigation, it has been found that the Sun Clan lacks ideals and beliefs, has betrayed its original aspirations and mission, and has never been loyal and honest to the sect..."
The Magic Vessel slowly descended, the airflow causing fallen leaves in front of the mountain gate to flutter. Yili Zhenren and his group of cultivators arrived at the Azure Cloud Sect late at night, but the mountain gate was deserted, with not a single cultivator coming out to greet them.
When the group arrived at the mountain gate, they saw a notice board with only one large character on it, written in black ink on white paper, with sharp strokes.
"I remember, Qingyun Zhenren's mortal surname is Sun, right?" Yili Zhenren looked around, sensing that something was amiss.
In the Immortal Sects, there are naturally interpersonal relationships and conflicts of interest. It is common for the families of Violet Palace Adept to take root and multiply in the sects, growing into a thriving family.
He had lived for hundreds of years and had seen many such scenes of internal strife within sects, but it was rare to see Violet Palace Adept being attacked so soon after his death.
" With Qingyun Zhenren dead, his family is being purged!"
One of the cultivators sighed, and the group remained at the mountain gate without going in directly.
When Master Qingyun's lifespan was exhausted, he must have already taken care of everything before his death, appeasing those who needed to be appeased and making promises to those who needed to be made.
His body is barely cold, and someone within the sect has already jumped out to settle scores with his family. If there weren't other Violet Palace Adept backing him up, who would dare to do that?
The Azure Cloud Sect ahead is undergoing a power transition. Entering might disrupt the plans of other Violet Palace Adept, and even ten Foundation Establishment wouldn't be enough to pay for it.
Everyone understood this principle, so they all looked at Yili Zhenren.
Yili Zhenren waved his sleeve and walked straight in.
" With the Dao Lord's decree imminent, who dares to disobey?"
He's still as brave as ever, venturing into other people's territory to cause trouble with such naturalness.
