Chapter 450: Tracking Small Barrier
"Okay, I'll tell Ziling about this." Lai Yinuan and Qin Jianmei were shocked when they heard this, but they quickly bowed slightly and accepted the order.
After saying that, the two of them left together. The remaining three great Xuan Master elders were still stunned and could not come back to their senses for a long time.
They had never seen it, and they didn't know that Qin Ziling had suppressed two Jindan ancestors with one palm not long ago. Naturally, it was difficult for them to accept that the two supreme elders and the sect master put forward such shocking conditions in order to keep Qin Ziling on the battleship of Tianyan Sect.
"Senior Brother, do you think Zi Ling will become a disciple of Tianyan Sect?" Qin Jianmei asked Lai Yinuan during the flight.
"What do you think?" Lai Yi Nuan asked instead of answering.
"I don't know. His thoughts are no longer something I can guess." Qin Jianmei shook her head.
"You, as your great-aunt, don't know, so how could I, as your teacher, know? But there is one thing I can be sure of. No matter whether he joins the Tianyan Sect or not, as long as the two of us do not betray the Tianyan Sect, he will definitely not sit idly by if the Tianyan Sect is in trouble." Lai Yinuan said.
"You are right. But it is precisely because of this that I am very worried now! The Immortal Infant Ancestor can already be called an Earth Immortal. Although it is only the lowest level among the Earth Immortals, he can already mobilize immortal power and perform immortal magic. His strength is so powerful that we can't even imagine it. If Zi Ling confronts Zhuang Yuanmo because of the Tianyan Sect, he will be in great danger!" Qin Jianmei said.
"Fortunately, Ziling is cautious and chose Fulao Pass to fight Jiang Shengyun. The news has not spread, otherwise Zhuang Yuanmo would have wanted to kill Qin Ziling. Now that the news has not spread, Zhuang Yuanmo is in the light and Ziling is in the dark, so Ziling still has time to prepare." Lai Yinuan said.
"Brother is right. The most important thing now is to give Zi Ling time to grow. With his talent, the hidden resources in his hands, and the resources of Tian Yan Sect, if he is given a few years, he still has hope of competing with Zhuang Yuanmo. But the fear is that there is no wall that is impenetrable, and the battle at Fulao Pass will sooner or later reach Zhuang Yuanmo's ears!" Qin Jianmei said.
"That depends on God! However, you don't have worry too much. The strength of Grand Elder Shang Pu is comparable to that of a mid-stage Jindan cultivator. Qin Ziling can suppress him and Jiang Shengyun with one palm strike. As long as he is given some more time, if he really wants to escape, it should be difficult for Zhuang Yuanmo to stop him.
At worst, if something unexpected happens, I will risk my life to buy him some time. As long as he escapes , with his talent and strength, he will be able to come back one day." Lai Yi Nuan said.
Qin Jianmei was silent for a long time before she said, "Just now in Tianyuan Hall, when the sect master mentioned that Zhuang Yuanmo had passed the tribulation and became the Immortal Infant Patriarch, I saw that senior brother's reaction seemed a bit complicated. Could it be that senior brother's injury back then was related to Zhuang Yuanmo?"
"Seventy years ago, Zhuang Yuanmo was still at the level of a Great Mystic Master, and I was also a Great Mystic Master at that time. But he was a genius of the Taiding Sect, and he was also lucky, and he was much younger than me. That year, our Tianyan Sect and the Taiding Sect had a conflict over a small vein of magic crystal stone, and then both sides agreed to use a duel to decide the ownership of the small vein of magic crystal stone.
The one who went to fight for Taiding Sect was Zhuang Yuanmo, and I was the one who went to fight for Tianyan Sect. At that time, you were only a middle-level master, and you didn't know about the fight between great masters. In that fight, we fought evenly, but he had a secret treasure called the poisonous bee needle. This needle was so tiny that it seemed to be invisible, and it was extremely fast, extremely sharp, and poisonous. When we were fighting fiercely, he suddenly released this needle and broke my Dantian.
Looking back to the past, he and I were both geniuses in our respective sects. Now, seventy years have passed, and I didn’t expect that he would become the ancestor of the Immortal Infant. If it weren’t for Zi Ling, I, the so-called genius, would still be just a small Xuan Master. "Lai Yi Nuan laughed at himself, with an indescribable feeling of vicissitudes.
"So that's why. No wonder you refused to tell Zi Ling when he asked you what happened to you." Qin Jianmei said.
"Yes, at that time he had just reached the realm of Martial Saint and Minor Mystic Master, and his strength seemed to be only able to fight with Jiang Shengyun at most. And Zhuang Yuanmo was already in the late Golden Core stage. The gap between the two was too huge. What good could I do if I told him? Besides, even if Zhuang Yuanmo used some shady tricks at that time, it was still a skill after all. I'll admit defeat!" Lai Yi Nuan said.
While the two were flying and talking all the way, Qin Ziling had already returned to Fangqiao County.
The Qin family in Wuzhou now has three martial arts masters in charge, the clan leader Qin Zaixin, and the two elders Qin Zijiao and Qin Xingjun. If nothing unexpected happens, Qin Zitang will soon become a martial arts master.
In this way, the Qin family has four martial arts masters in charge.
Now that the ancestor of the Jiang family has been killed by him, Qin Ziling naturally doesn't have to worry about the Qin family.
So after the battle of Fulao Mountain ended, Qin Ziling returned to the Qin family in Wuzhou, gave a few instructions, and then returned to Fangliao County with the people from Wuji Sect.
Qin Xingbao and Qin Xingpeng insisted on going with him, so Qin Ziling took them both back to Fangqiao County.
After returning to Fangliao County, Qin Ziling met his mother, Xiao Qing and others, explained a few things to them, and then returned to the Wuji Palace on the island in the middle of the lake. Then, he closed the door of the palace and entered the Qiankun Cave Heaven.
In the Qiankun Cave Heaven, in the middle of the formation made up of thirty-six huge Leixun stones, a flaming golden elixir was floating in the air, and bolts of lightning kept striking the golden elixir.
With each bolt of lightning that struck, the shadows of the runes on the golden elixir became fainter.
Standing outside the formation, looking at the golden elixir floating in the middle of the formation, Qin Ziling's eyes revealed a hint of anticipation.
The golden elixir is the condensed magic power of a Qi-refining cultivator who has practiced hard for a lifetime. The magic power is so pure and powerful that it is much better than the football-sized magic blood crystal he obtained from the underground world.
However, under normal circumstances, a Jindan cultivator will choose to self-destruct his Jindan at the last moment. It is difficult for anyone to seize the Jindan of a Jindan cultivator unless they are much stronger than him.
Not only that, the Jindan cultivator's Jindan is deeply imprinted with the cultivator's consciousness. If one cannot completely refine this consciousness and directly absorbs the magic power in the Jindan, it is easy to become confused and go astray.
The consciousness on the golden elixir is the result of the continuous practice and penetration of the golden elixir cultivators over long years. It has almost merged into one with the golden elixir's magic power. The only way to completely refine it is to constantly temper it with the true fire between heaven and earth or lightning.
Jiang Shengyun was unable to defeat Qin Ziling, and in a moment of panic, he actually released his golden elixir. Then his body was directly suppressed by Qin Ziling's claw. When he thought of self-destructing his golden elixir, Qin Ziling's sharp consciousness immediately sensed it and killed him directly.
The golden elixir then fell into Qin Ziling's hands.
Others got the golden elixir but couldn't prepare it, so it was useless.
But Qin Ziling has plenty of thunder and lightning.
Seeing that it would be difficult for the thunder and lightning to refine the imprint of consciousness on the golden elixir in a short period of time, Qin Ziling no longer paid attention to the golden elixir, but instead set his sights on the space area covered by the thirty-six Leixun boulders and the stone formation.
Ever since coming out of the wind and thunder barrier, Qin Ziling always felt vaguely that the barrier was right next to him, as if within reach.
But his strength was limited at that time, and his perception was vague, very mysterious and indescribable.
However, after coming out of the dragon pond, his strength skyrocketed. His martial arts skills could almost sense the heavenly tribulation, and his Qi training skills also reached the level of a great master.
It even seemed as if the soul was faintly extending an invisible root into the infinite void to absorb energy and strengthen the soul.
It was precisely because of this change in his soul that Qin Ziling's perception of the small barrier became clearer and clearer, and he was even able to basically determine that it was related to the thirty-six Lei Xun boulders.
But after coming out of Longtan, the next thing he had to do was to have a life-and-death battle with Jiang Shengyun. Qin Ziling temporarily suppressed the urge to explore the small barrier again to avoid any accidents.
Now that the matter of Jiang Shengyun has been resolved and the situation with Tianyan Sect has ended peacefully, Qin Ziling no longer has any worries and is ready to formally explore the portal of the small barrier and see if there is any way to enter the small barrier again.
