After being passed down from generation to generation, the monks of the Soul Suppressing Palace gradually began to have contacts, marriages, etc. with other Soul Cultivator sects, and their skills began to blend.
During this long process, some disciples also left Soul Suppressing Palace, established their own sects or Lineage outside, and became vassals of the Soul Sect.
In addition to having to pay tribute every year, they can still pass on ordinary skills, as well as the skills that Soul Suppressing Palace is allowed to pass on, to their disciples.
But they are often restricted from passing on the secret technique of suppressing Soul Sect. Once discovered, their entire sect or Lineage will be killed.
Since these people can go out and establish a sect, they are basically all talented people, and they often create their own techniques.
Later, after marrying Soul Cultivator who was not Soul Suppressing Palace, more new techniques were created through exchanges between the strong men of both parties. This was actually a repeat of what the immortal sects from all walks of life had done.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be too many exercises in the world, and a few exercises would be enough. It's just that the previous Soul Cultivator lived in darkness and did not dare to truly develop.
For a time, "Dizhen Domain" slowly emerged from generation to generation, and a hundred schools of thought contended. As a result, the Soul Cultivator skills here became stronger and stronger, becoming more and more numerous, and it became the holy land of Soul Cultivator.
In fact, the reason why Soul Suppressing Palace's senior officials did this was that many sects had already come to a clear understanding.
That's why Soul Suppressing Palace hopes to try out different techniques to see if there will be any unique techniques that can break the constraints of the world here.
If someone is found to be able to break through to the Body Integration Realm after practicing to the Void Refinement Realm without using the special place of the Soul Suppressing Palace which is the only way to advance to Body Integration.
This means that the other party's technique has a different function, and Soul Suppressing Palace will take out that special place and cooperate with the other party.
Maybe we can open the ban on "Dizhen Domain" and break the restrictions on leaving here.
This is one of the reasons why Soul Suppressing Palace did not prevent his disciples from leaving and establishing their own sect. But at the same time, it also gives them great restrictions, so that they can continue to innovate and improve.
Kung Fu techniques are all created by people, and then one sect after another appeared. Soul Suppressing Palace This plan is actually very long, and may not necessarily yield results.
But in desperation, they can only do this. When the dog is in a hurry, they can always jump over the high wall that they cannot usually jump out of.
Including those foreign Soul Cultivator, preventing them from entering the special area where they can break through to the Body Integration Realm, Soul Suppressing Palace, in addition to consolidating their own power, is also squeezing their potential.
No monk would be willing to give up and die of old age after reaching Void Refinement Realm, so they would be forced to reach Body Integration Realm without any external force.
Otherwise, there is nothing to look forward to.
Li Yan's plan has been adjusted in various aspects after the short and sturdy man appeared.
The sect that the stocky man belonged to was founded hundreds of thousands of years ago by a Soul Suppressing Palace Void Refinement disciple. He himself created a set of exercises that were not considered too perfect.
Later, in order to quickly solve this problem, the disciple who founded the sect successively recruited two outsiders Soul Cultivator who were involved here.
After giving them extremely generous cultivation resources, and through mutual exchanges, everyone's cultivation level has improved by leaps and bounds.
In the end, these two people became the supreme elders of the sect, and gradually formed a sect with unique skills.
But now, most of the sect's skills have been obtained by Li Yan for free.
Stealing other people's skills is a taboo in any realm. Once someone knows about it, it will lead to death.
However, Li Yan doesn't care about this. If he doesn't do this, he will only make himself die faster here.
Due to the short stout man's own realm, this sect's technique called "Lingzhumen", this man only got the final technique of the Nascent Soul Realm.
Further up, Li Yan cannot be asked.
However, Li Yan can also guess that according to the constraints of heaven and earth here, this sect's skills are estimated to be only Void Refinement Realm at most, or even Spirit Transformation Realm.
The only skills beyond this realm are the ones brought by the two foreigners Soul Cultivator. I don't know if they have been passed down, but after being verified here, they are of no use.
After he obtained the short and stout man's technique, he practiced hard day and night, which allowed his soul power to increase rapidly again.
Finally, based on his understanding of Soul Cultivator's level, Li Yan, in addition to his overall strength, judged his soul strength alone to have reached the strength of the Spirit Transformation Realm.
The reason for all this is that his soul foundation is too strong.
He has never practiced the Soul Cultivator technique, but it only took him less than twenty years of practice to achieve such strength, which is impressive.
Li Yan In fact, during these years, he actually didn't care that the strength of his soul increased again. For him, Nascent Soul Realm's soul was enough for the time being.
The imbalance between soul skills and martial arts was the shortcoming that he urgently needed to make up for. He had a powerful soul power, but he couldn't attack it. The most he could do was increase his soul defense.
Therefore, after he borrowed the Soul-Slaying Sect technique, he finally managed to achieve some soul skills, and finally managed to achieve a small level of success.
As soon as he reached this point, Li Yan immediately left there. He had to enter Soul Suppressing Palace as soon as possible.
Entering Soul Suppressing Palace, in addition to asking for information, there is another advantage, that is, having the largest identity in this world, it is convenient to do things in many cases.
Li Yan was flying, constantly thinking about the plans in his heart, including various plans if he could not enter Soul Suppressing Palace.
And at a certain moment, in Li Yan's sight, a mountain gate rising into the sky appeared. The mountain gate is dark blue as a whole, as if it is built with huge and rough bluestone.
At a glance, the entire mountain gate gives people a feeling of being covered with rich and thick years.
The mountain gate is 10,000 feet high and I don't know how wide it is. If I fly in the direction of Li Yan, I can only see one side of the gate pillar.
When there were still hundreds of miles away from the mountain gate, the sky here had already turned dark, making the majestic mountain gate even more immersed in black clouds and mist.
As the wind blows and the fog moves, the mountain gate gives people a feeling of being far away and then near, as if it is constantly drifting.
Li Yan After infusing his eyes with mana, he looked up high in the air and could occasionally see a few big characters on the mountain gate among the billowing black clouds.
"Soul Suppressing Palace", these three fonts are strong through bluestone and are blue-black. Each character is a hundred feet in size, like three mountains, embedded between the sky and the earth.
The handwriting has been mottled with time, and is black and dignified. In addition, they are deeply embedded in rough blue boulders covered with moss.
Anyone who sees these three words will feel an ancient spirit of Savage Wilderness coming from deep within.
As Li Yan continued to approach, he felt that no matter how he changed his direction and approached, those three large green and black characters were like three ghost eyes, staring directly at him at all times.
The surrounding cold air is getting stronger and stronger. Even with Li Yan's cultivation level, as he continues to approach the mountain gate, his scalp is getting tighter and tighter, and the chill in his body is getting stronger and stronger.
Li Yan knows that this is a restriction on the mountain gate, exerting pressure on the coverage area.
The pressure that Soul Suppressing Palace can unleash is the three souls and seven souls against people. When the soul is suppressed, it will naturally feel more and more chilly.
Li Yan There were other monks coming and going around, all of them walking through the surging black clouds.
At this moment, everyone's body seemed to be coated with a layer of black ink, like shadows appearing and disappearing in a piece of ink painting.
Coupled with the boundless coldness and dampness around it, like ghosts, they flashed past Li Yan.
Naturally, no one came to talk to Li Yan. On the contrary, after discovering him, they would deliberately keep a distance, which made Li Fang feel like he was traveling in a silent space.
Li Yan also had an expressionless face, until when he appeared a hundred miles in front of the mountain gate, Li Yan felt himself being pushed directly to the ground by a tyrannical force.
Li Yan fell to the ground. He knew that this was already a restricted area. This was a common method used by many sects.
Flights are either not allowed outside the mountain gate, or warnings appear, but often everything returns to normal after entering the mountain gate.
One is to demonstrate to warn visitors, and the other is to protect the sect.
Li Yan Seven or eight black figures around him fell to the ground together with him.
But there were still some people in the air. After briefly glancing at the fallen Li Yan and others, they continued to fly towards the mountain gate.
The eyes of these people were either cold or a little joking.
Li Yan It is clear at a glance that those who can continue to fly must be the monks of the Soul Suppressing Palace...
After Li Yan traveled a hundred miles on foot, he finally came to the corner of the mountain gate, close to a stone pillar on one side of the mountain gate.
Standing on the ground and looking up, this stone pillar extends upwards into the sky. It gives the impression that it is a huge green mountain peak that looks straight up and down.
Li Yan walked here together with several black shadows in front of him. There may be people whispering in twos and threes along the way, but Li Yan is just alone.
After arriving here, Li Yan saw that twenty or thirty people had gathered in front of the mountain gate and were being interrogated by five monks in black robes.
The black robes on the chests of these five people all have a strange red flame logo embroidered on them. They wear pitch black robes, giving people a cold and mysterious feeling.
Li Yan stood silently behind the team, moving forward little by little with the crowd. After listening to some low-pitched questions and answers from the front, Li Yan also figured out the reasons why some people came here.
Among them, there are monks who want to join Soul Suppressing Palace. They seem to be outstanding disciples of some sects, but were brought here by the elders or sect leaders of their own sects.
More of them are shop monks who come to conduct various transactions.
The five people asked carefully. After everyone was registered one by one, the same disciple in black robes would walk out of the mountain gate and lead those people into the mountain gate and disappear without a trace.
After about a cup of tea, it was finally Li Yan's turn.
A woman in her thirties looked Li Yan up and down. This woman also had a good appearance. Li Yan could see through the fluctuations in the power of her soul that she was a monk from the Golden Core Realm.
The monk Golden Core Realm is used to guard the mountain gate, which is Immortal Spirit Realm.
After this woman also sensed the aura emanating from Li Yan, her pretty face showed just a hint of respect.
"Senior, what's the purpose of coming here?"
"I want to join Soul Suppressing Palace!"
Li Yan was also straightforward, and the expression on his face did not change much.
"Oh? Which sect is your senior a monk from?"
Although the female cultivator had a hint of surprise in her mouth, there was no strange expression on her pretty face.
"Dizhen Domain" Although there are many sects, there are many monks who ultimately want to enter Soul Suppressing Palace. Some of them are recommended by the sects, and some come by themselves to pass the examination.
These people are basically Spirit Transformation and below monks. If a Void Refinement monk comes, it is extremely rare, and Soul Suppressing Palace is especially valued.
"I am Rogue Cultivator. My ancestor was a monk from the Soul-Slaying Sect. After leaving the sect, I have been practicing in a remote place!"
"The Soul-Slaying Sect? That sect is not weak. If you want to join our sect, you must pass the examination."
After hearing the name of the sect from Li Yan, the female cultivator just nodded slightly.
She didn't ask why Li Yan didn't recognize his ancestor and return to the sect. Since the other party's ancestor left the Soul-Slaying Sect, he had his own reasons.
Li Yan has said that he went to a remote place. Either his ancestors were ostracized by others in the sect, or they had "ambitions". Now that they have gotten to this point, their descendants will have no shame in going back...
What Li Yan said was a more detailed plan after searching the stocky man's memory.
The Lingzhan Sect has a heritage of more than 100,000 years, and there are countless monks who have left the sect. He does not even need to change his surname. No one will check whether any monk named Li has left the sect in more than 100,000 years.
Li Yan What he wants is that he comes from a decent background. Once he performs a spell, some of the Soul-Slaying Sect spells he performs can be explained away.
"I know all this, so I'll trouble this fellow Daoist!"
Li Yan just said something lightly, with an expression that was already clear.
"Then I will register for senior now, but I still want to say that once senior passes the examination, he can only enter the "Strange Bird Hall".
In the future, some of the required training resources may be more difficult to obtain than other halls, especially some secret techniques, which still depend on the contribution of seniors to the sect.
Then, it must be evaluated by the elders before it can be purchased. These are all things that the seniors need to know in advance. "
The female cultivator didn't know if Li Yan knew everything about the situation here before coming, but she explained the restrictions one by one after entering with an identity like Li Yan.
"Oh? I wonder what kind of contribution is required?"
Of course Li Yan already knew a lot of things, but he was not too clear about some of the specific rules within the Soul Suppressing Palace.
"For example, if you have improved Pill Formula, or a certain skill, or killed at least ten evil spirit monks of the same level outside, etc., a dedicated deacon will inform you of these matters after passing the assessment."
After half a stick of incense, Li Yan was taken to a large Stone Chamber a hundred miles inside the mountain gate by a disciple.
Inside Stone Chamber, Li Yan looked around. He clearly heard that there were people who wanted to worship Soul Suppressing Palace in front of him, but he didn't see them here.
I didn't fly very fast just now, and I don't know if I was delayed intentionally. Li Yan guessed that there were more than one assessment place.
Behind a large table, there was only a young man with a very gloomy face. The young man was reading an ancient book in his hand.
The disciple who came with Li Yan immediately put a "soul slip" in his hand on the table after entering the room, then saluted the young man and left without saying a word.
Li Yan looked around and saw that the disciple who led him over did not instruct him how to do it.
In fact, there was no need for instructions at all. There were only two people in the room, namely him and the young man behind the long table opposite.
The young man slowly raised his head, but did not put down the book in his hand.
Li Yan sensed that the other party was also a monk from the Nascent Soul Realm, but it might be Nascent Soul Late Stage.
"Nascent Soul Early Stage monk!"
The young man glanced at Li Yan first. After saying this, without waiting for Li Yan's reply, he picked up the "Soul Slip" on the table in front of him, and then the soul power sneaked into it.
Soon, the young man raised his head.
"Fellow Daoist Li, the assessment is very simple. You enter the room on one side. Inside is a formation. I will adjust the difficulty of the formation assessment according to the level of fellow Daoist.
After you enter, there will be a stick of incense time, and there will be layers of attacks in the formation. You can try your best to break the formation. Finally, the assessment results will be judged based on how many restrictions fellow Daoists can break!
What I want to say is that this kind of assessment is dangerous and can even lead to direct death. Therefore, I can see the entire process of breaking the ban, fellow Daoist, please know this.
Because I want to ensure that at critical moments, I can stop the operation of the formation in time to protect the lives of fellow Daoists. "
The young man looked at Li Yan and said slowly.
"No problem!"
Li Yan nodded.
When the other party saw the process of breaking the ban, it was not only to protect the monks inside, but also to observe the status of the skills he used.
This is also to confirm whether Li Yan told lies when registering outside.
After seeing that Li Yan had no problem, the young man stood up with a smile.
"Fellow Daoist Li, please come with me!"
This is a space of ice and snow. In front of you is a vast plain of ice and snow. The howling cold wind is rolling in the ice and snow all over the sky, rolling towards Li Yan.
Li Yan can feel the bone-chilling chill here, as if he has really arrived in an extremely cold place.
He stood there and did not move his body immediately. The other party just said that after entering here, there will be a formation prohibition attack, but Li Yan didn't know what the attack was.
Unable to use Divine Sense, he could only look around vigilantly and be cautious.
After practicing some of Soul Cultivator's techniques, Li Yan understood Soul Cultivator's insidious nature even more.
The soul attacks he could use in the past, but now it seems that except for "Soul-Seizing Killing" which is considered a real spell, the methods he has figured out are simply crude to the extreme.
To put it nicely, what he did was considered an attack. It doesn't sound like a big stupid guy with no strength. When facing the enemy, he picked up a big stick without any clues and swung it around.
Not to mention that a lot of effort was wasted, and the effect it could achieve was extremely limited.
Those real Soul Cultivator masters, after attacking the enemy, can make a person look intact and even make that person speak and walk normally.
But in fact, that person may be just a walking corpse!
Li Yan stood here like this, but after he stood for more than ten breaths, there was no attack. There was only endless wind and snow around him, filling the entire sky and earth, and endless chills came in waves.
"Huh? No..."
Li Yan The protective light shield on the body's surface suddenly circulated with a burst of light, causing the white snow that had fallen on the body to fall down.
In just these ten breaths, Li Yan felt that his consciousness was a little slow.
Moreover, the chill here, not only did not decrease due to the operation of his own magic power, but it seemed to be getting stronger and stronger.
