The Ritual, Return to Chenwei
The task of finding the World-Cleansing Heavenly Water should be left to others.
Li Yunjing then asked the Five Spirits Lord if there was any way to alleviate the Curse.
After all, if this continues, even more people from the Luozhen Sect will die.
Even with the Hall of Rebirth, one can be resurrected even after death.
However, resurrection comes at a price. If too many people die at once, I'm afraid the Luozhen Sect won't be able to come up with that many Spirit Stone in a short time.
After hearing this, Five Spirits Lord told Li Yunjing
"There is only one way to alleviate this Curse: Living Sacrifice Stele the vengeful spirits of the Living Sacrifice Stele monument and reduce its resentment."
"The Curse on the Living Sacrifice Stele originates entirely from these resentful spirits and vengeful souls. As long as we target these two things, the power of the Curse will naturally weaken," said the Five Spirits Lord.
"How can I do what you say?" Li Yunjing asked again.
"Young Master, all you need to do is set up a Ritual of Refinement and Deliverance to send these vengeful spirits to the afterlife," Five Spirits Lord smiled.
Li Yunjing was somewhat surprised. "That's so simple?"
Ritual of Refinement and Deliverance are very common; basically, the vast majority of sects or cultivation Lineage will set up such ceremonies.
Once a disciple dies, the sect or Lineage can use this ritual to help them enter the cycle of reincarnation more easily, rather than becoming a wandering ghost.
Of course, this ritual is even more common in the demonic path.
The demonic cultivators altered the ritual, turning it into a ritual for refining ghosts.
Therefore, Luozhen Sect could also arrange the ceremony, but Li Yunjing did not allow Luozhen Sect to arrange the ceremony because the Hall of Rebirth was already in place.
"It's that simple, but this only reduces the power of the Curse. To eradicate it, you still need the World-Cleansing Heavenly Water."
If the Ritual of Refinement and Deliverance had not been refined into the Heavenly Dao by some great figure and received the blessing of the Heavenly Dao's power,
Otherwise, the Ritual of Refinement and Deliverance would be completely ineffective in the current situation.
"Even if the ritual is performed, the power of the Curse may not be reduced much, and I'm afraid some people will still die," said Five Spirits Lord.
Upon hearing this, Li Yunjing said, "Let's not worry about that for now. Let's reduce it as much as we can."
Li Yunjing immediately left to find others and set up Ritual of Refinement and Deliverance to reduce the power of the Curse.
Li Yunjing found Nangong Chengyu and Fang Hexuan and entrusted them with the task of arranging the Ritual of Refinement and Deliverance.
As for Li Yunjing, he naturally still had to make a trip to the Chenwei Dao Realm.
However, this time Li Yunjing did not travel to the Chenwei Dao Realm alone.
He found the Fire Dragon.
After arriving in Tianyuan, the Fire Dragon was no longer restricted by the Mysterious Female Dao Realm, and he also entered the Spirit Concentration Realm, becoming an existence equivalent to Spirit Transformation cultivator.
After entering the Spirit Concentration Realm, the Fire Dragon's overall strength increased significantly.
In the Chenwei Dao Realm, the Fire Dragon can absolutely roam freely.
When the Fire Dragon learned that it would be traveling to other Dao Realm with Li Yunjing, it was incredibly excited.
Opportunities to show off in other Dao Realm are rare.
Upon arriving at the teleportation array, the Fire Dragon had shrunk in size and was coiled around Li Yunjing's shoulder.
Activating the teleportation array, Li Yunjing selected the coordinates of the Chenwei Dao Realm.
A burst of light appeared, and Li Yunjing disappeared from the teleportation array.
In the Chenwei Dao Realm, in the cave where Li Yunjing first arrived...
He appeared here once again.
Having learned from his first experience, Li Yunjing headed straight down the mountain towards the market town at its foot.
Soon, Li Yunjing returned to the market town once again.
The treasure from the Heavenly Artifact Pavilion was still in the market, so Li Yunjing headed straight there.
The old man that Li Yunjing had seen earlier was now inside this inn.
The old man froze on the spot the moment he saw Li Yunjing.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly and immediately said, "Greetings, senior. The sect leader is waiting for you upstairs."
Li Yunjing nodded slightly and walked directly upstairs.
As soon as Li Yunjing arrived on the second floor, he heard a roar.
"Damn it, even Si Wu has betrayed the Heavenly Artifact Pavilion!?"
The voice came from Gu Anchen.
Li Yunjing pushed open the door and entered the room where Gu Anchen was.
In front of Gu Anchen, a young man, not very old, was bowing his head, looking extremely frightened.
Gu Anchen, on the other hand, was furious, his hands clenched so tightly that the veins on them bulged.
When Gu Anchen saw Li Yunjing, he was first stunned, then the anger on his face disappeared and turned into surprise.
"Sect Leader, you're finally back!"
Gu Anchen took three steps at a time and walked towards Li Yunjing.
The young man was quite surprised. How could his own sect leader address someone else as sect leader? Was that appropriate?
He turned his head and saw a young man who was about the same age as him.
However, the spiritual energy fluctuations emanating from that young man were extremely terrifying, comparable to those emanating from Gu Anchen.
This means that the young man is also Nascent Soul Cultivator.
This stirred up a storm within him.
How could someone become Nascent Soul Cultivator at such a young age? This... it's truly infuriating to compare oneself to others!
Li Yunjing looked at Gu Anchen in front of him and asked with a smile, "I just heard you roaring about Si Wu's defection from the Heavenly Artifact Pavilion. What happened? What major events occurred while I was away?"
"Sect Leader, this is absolutely outrageous!" Upon hearing this, Gu Anchen's joy turned into fury.
"This Si Wu is a weapon refiner trained by my Heavenly Artifact Pavilion. He has a very high talent. My Heavenly Artifact Pavilion has poured all its efforts into him so that he can grow up and become a pillar of the Heavenly Artifact Pavilion!"
Unexpectedly, even Si Wu couldn't resist the temptation. The Tiger Jiao Kingdom sent people to find him, promising that as long as he left the Heavenly Artifact Pavilion and joined the Tiger Jiao Kingdom...
The Tiger Jiao Kingdom will offer him treatment that the Heavenly Artifact Pavilion cannot provide.
I don't know the specifics, but Si Wu agreed.
Sect Leader, how can this not enrage me! Si Wu was fed and clothed by the Heavenly Artifact Pavilion Heavenly Artifact Pavilion, and then he kicked the Heavenly Artifact Pavilion away in the end!
This kind of person is truly selfish, greedy, and a despicable individual!
Gu Anchen became more and more excited as he spoke.
Judging from his posture, if Si Wu were in front of him, he would want to tear Si Wu to pieces.
Li Yunjing could understand Gu Anchen's feelings.
Anyone would find it difficult to remain calm in this situation.
After Gu Anchen calmed down a bit, he continued:
"During the time the sect leader was away, apart from Si Wu's defection, nothing else major happened."
However, my informant in the Tiger Jiao Kingdom sent back news that the Tiger Jiao seems to be brewing some kind of grand plan.
I suspect that Tiger Jiao, seeing the Heavenly Artifact Pavilion Heavenly Artifact Pavilion declining, became restless and plotted to annex it, thereby ruling the entire Chenwei Realm.
Li Yunjing nodded slightly. "Yes, now that I'm here, whatever plan Tiger Jiao has been brewing, it will all be in vain."
Gu Anchen was surprised when he heard Li Yunjing say that.
However, he believed Li Yunjing's words, after all, Li Yunjing was a person from the Greater Thousand Dao Realm.
At this moment, the Fire Dragon coiled on Li Yunjing's shoulder moved.
He swam directly to Li Yunjing's head and asked, "Tiger Jiao? Is it that High Antiquity, exotic Tiger Jiao?"
The Fire Dragon's words caused Gu Anchen and the disciple from the Heavenly Artifact Pavilion to widen their eyes and their pupils to contract sharply.
Although they saw the Fire Dragon from the beginning, they initially couldn't believe Fire Dragon was a living creature.
After all, the Fire Dragon was as still as a rock at first, without making a sound.
But now the Fire Dragon has "come alive," and they are shocked!
In the Chenwei Dao Realm, the True Dragon has long been a legend! Even its very existence is questionable!
