"Haha... Good! What a wonderful illusion!"
Clan Chief Kong Changgeng, watching Kong Wenxuan's "Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique" and his bewitching control over the Fourth Tier Peacock Demon Race, burst into laughter and exclaimed in admiration.
If we were to ask who in the Lineage has the deepest affection for "Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique" and the "Peacock Soul-Bewitching Scripture," it would undoubtedly be the patriarch.
He successfully Foundation Establishment by cultivating the "Peacock Soul-Bewitching Scripture" and mastering the "Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique." He then led his Lineage to stability amidst a period of upheaval and decline. He has devoted most of his cultivation time and energy to the "Peacock Soul-Bewitching Scripture."
Furthermore, after Kong Wenxuan successfully "Star Inlaying" and left the legacy of the "Five Elements True Scripture" in the "Peacock True Spirit Star," most of the Lineage members turned to the cultivation of the "Five Elements True Scripture."
Only the clan leader persisted in practicing the Five Elements True Scripture and refining the Black Water Talisman Slip, as well as studying and researching the Peacock Soul-Bewitching Scripture and "Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique."
Furthermore, the clan leader, through his own efforts, expanded and continued the clan's "Peacock Soul-Bewitching Scripture," which originally only reached the Second Tier Foundation Establishment, to the Third Tier Purple Mansion level, integrating the techniques of the Third Tier "Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique" into the bloodline inheritance of "Peacock True Spirit Star."
Kong Wenxuan thus mastered the Third Tier "Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique" and used it in battles and fights, where it often proved to be very effective.
Just like when he previously defeated that Fourth Tier Seven-Colored Peacock Demon Race, he relied on the Third Tier "Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique" to bewitch it for a moment. By that split second, he successfully suppressed it into the "sword formation" and then captured it.
This shows that the "Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique" can often produce different effects than the "Five Elements Divine Swords" and "Five Elements Talisman Slips" in battle and fighting.
Therefore, the clan leader Kong Changgeng was the most excited after witnessing Kong Wenxuan's mastery and execution of the Fourth Tier "Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique".
He immediately made hand Hand Seals to communicate with the "Peacock True Spirit Star" in the sky, and obtained the newly integrated Fourth Tier "Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique" inheritance method from it.
After a while, the clan leader opened his eyes, took out the "Black Water Talisman Slip" he had refined, looked around, and saw the "Stone Disc Turtle" Demon Beast lying on the lakeside at the foot of the mountain. He then swung the "Black Water Talisman Slip" and a hazy, dreamlike black light swept down and entered the body of the "Stone Disc Turtle" Demon Beast.
The next moment, the "Stone Disc Turtle" Demon Beast was also controlled by the clan leader's "Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique," and under the clan leader's control and command, it began to dance in the lake.
"Good! Good! Good... So this is the Fourth Tier ' Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique '!"
After the clan leader had bewitched and controlled the Third Tier "Stone Disc Turtle" to dance for a while, he finally released it, laughing and praising it. The "Stone Disc Turtle" Demon Beast, after gaining its freedom, was so frightened that it immediately fled back to the bottom of the lake.
"Although this ' Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique ' is not as lethal as the ' Five Elements Divine Swords ' or the ' Five Elements Talisman Slips,' it can sometimes be surprisingly effective on the battlefield."
"Especially this Fourth Tier ' Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique,' which can bewitch and control external enemies to one's own advantage, is comparable in combat effectiveness to the ' Five Elements Divine Swords ' and the ' Five Elements Talisman Slips.'"
"It seems we still need to have all the awakened bloodline members of the clan pick up and practice this ' Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique ' again."
"This counterattack on the ' Heavenly Demon Grotto-Heaven ' has only just begun, and nearly five hundred of the Lineage members who went to war have already sacrificed their lives. How many cultivators does the Lineage have in total? This is almost a tenth of them... and many more have been wounded!"
As clan chief Kong Changgeng spoke, he seemed to recall the "Lineage burial" that had just ended. The faces of the many children buried in the "Lineage cemetery" immediately turned somber, filled with sorrow.
Apart from the Second Elder Kong Changlan, there is no one in the clan who is higher in rank than the clan leader. To him, most of the cultivators in the clan, including Kong Wenxuan, are children he has watched grow up and raised. He truly treats them as his own children.
Now, a counter-offensive has just begun, and nearly a tenth of the children have already been sacrificed, which naturally makes him extremely distressed. This has only strengthened his resolve to have all the cultivators in his clan inherit and practice the "Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique".
"Mastering another ' Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique ' technique will give you more ways to survive on the battlefield."
"The great battle to counterattack ' Heavenly Demon Grotto-Heaven ' has only just begun; there's much more to come..."
Kong Wenxuan nodded in agreement with the clan leader's opinion and offered his own suggestion. "Not only should the clansmen inherit and learn the ' Soul-Bewitching Illusion Technique,' but we should also utilize the corpses of the Seven-Colored Peacock Demon Race and Peacock Demon Beast we brought back from the battlefield, especially several Fourth Tier demon corpses, to forge ' Peacock Flying Boat ' of various tiers, making them weapons of war and enhancing the combat effectiveness of the Lineage's members on the battlefield."
"The clan currently has no way to use those Fourth Tier Peacock demon corpses to forge Fourth Tier ' Peacock Cloud Boat.' I suggest we don't wait until Uncle Fourteen and the others have grown up. We can contact the Bi Household and send those Fourth Tier Peacock demon corpses over to get Bi Household help. We should forge the Fourth Tier cloud boat first to increase the clan's combat power and enhance their means of survival on the battlefield."
Hearing Kong Wenxuan's suggestion, clan chief Kong Changgeng nodded and said, "Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. The clan truly doesn't have time to wait for Yuyan to grow up and reach the level where they can forge Fourth Tier ' Peacock Cloud Boat '."
"I believe Yuyan and the others will understand the choice made by their clan."
"Even in the current situation, the Bi Household has also obtained a lot of resources such as Bifang demon corpses from the ' Spirit Taming Pass ' battlefield. The only concern is that they are all busy forging cloud boats and Void Boat for their own families and do not have the time or manpower to help us forge the ' Peacock Cloud Boat '."
As he spoke, the clan chief looked at Kong Wenxuan and said, "Wenxuan, you have more connections with the upper echelons of the Bi Household. Why don't you inquire first and ask for their help? If the Bi Household can take on this job, we can offer more Spirit Stone and resources."
Kong Wenxuan nodded upon hearing this and said, "I'll give it a try."
"At the same time, we can also have the Second Elder and Fourth Sister contact the Bi Household to see what happens."
He recalled seeing Bi Yizhen, Fourth Tier dao companion, in the Bi Household's caravan. It was clear that she held a certain position within the Bi Household and was likely a descendant of one of the Bi Household's great cultivators.
Therefore, having the fourth sister inquire about the Bi Household's intentions through her dao companion would undoubtedly increase their chances.
Clan Chief Kong Changgeng was clearly quite familiar with Kong Wenjun's situation. Upon hearing this, he nodded in agreement and immediately contacted the Second Elder and Kong Wenjun, explaining the clan's intentions and asking them to help contact the craftsmen in the Bi Household who could forge the "Cloud Boat".
Kong Wenxuan first tried to contact Bi Qingqing True Person, with whom he had cooperated several times, but he was unable to reach him. The other party was currently in the "Heavenly Demon Grotto-Heaven" assisting in the repair of the "Spirit Taming Pass" and setting up the formation.
Afterwards, he contacted Bi Yanshu True Person, the head of the household affairs office of the county government, whom he was more familiar with. This time he was able to get in touch with him smoothly. The other party was still in the county government office in the county city and had not gone to the "Heavenly Demon Grotto-Heaven" to participate in the battle.
After he explained his request, True Person Bi Yanshu did not immediately agree, but only said that he could help inquire whether there were any shipbuilders in the Bi Lineage who were available to take on the Kong Household's orders.
Meanwhile, the Second Elder Kong Changlan and the Fourth Sister Kong Wenjun also received a message from the clan leader and began to use their connections to contact the shipbuilders of the Bi Household for the Lineage.
Through the combined efforts of all three parties, definite news was finally received three days later: a Fourth Tier shipbuilder from the Bi Household was willing to take on the Kong Household 'Kong Household order and help them forge Fourth Tier "Peacock Cloud Boat".
