“I heard Wang Yuan got it worst. That Broken Blade guy didn’t die and teamed up with two formidable experts to ambush him.”
“That battle apparently brought up fragments of magic items, numerous Ascendant Grade Magic Tools, and Blood Inheritance Magic Items. They directly devastated Qingjiang Street and a dock.”
“Don’t know if Wang Yuan is still alive.”
“Broken Blade Xu Renke, I hope he’s dead. If I, Old Zeng, ever encounter him,
I’ll skin him alive.”
Upon mentioning Xu Renke, everyone wore a grim expression.
This person had faked his death after dying on the Dao Debate Platform.
But he counterattacked and went after the Broken Mountain Gang.
“By the way, where’s your Old Qin?” Zeng Wen asked tentatively. “I heard that the Nangong Family had ordered his execution, and then it was inexplicably withdrawn.”
“What did he do?”
What did Qin Liangchen do?
In the battle of the Green Hemp Forest, Qin Liangchen unleashed a lethal move that he got as compensation from Yu Ding Sword Pavilion.
He instantly killed ten cultivators of the Nangong Family, causing them severe losses.
Even Nangong Qin, the top youth of the Great River District, was seriously injured.
No wonder the Nangong Family was enraged.
However, an execution order is just a joke.
Now, Luo Tian Creed is shielded by Miao Wen; a word of notice, and the other side can only swallow their anger.
Moreover, Qin Liangchen has the backing of being a beginner disciple of the Luo Yun Sect. In the uncertain situation of the future accomplishments of the other side, the Nangong Family would not dare to give offense extremely.
If they had secretly killed in the beginning, that would have been fine.
But publicly calling for his death was an outright outrage.
Murong Qinglian explained to Zeng Wen in a whisper.
After listening, Zeng Wen was somewhat stunned.
In the end, he said with a complex tone: “Indeed, I’m no match for him!”
If circumstances were reversed, would he, like Qin Liangchen, disregard everything to save Murong Qinglian?
The answer, even if he didn’t want to admit it, was clear in his heart.
His hall was among the three major Battle Halls with the best-preserved strength, including himself, they had three Ninth Level Qi Refinement Experts. The expedition to the Ancient Plains Mountain Range didn’t cause any losses to them.
If they had taken the risk under the siege of four Ninth Level Qi Refinement cultivators, they might have had a slim chance of turning the tide.
But he chose to escape sensibly.
Whether it was right or wrong is hard to judge.
But people lack courage.
Suddenly, Murong Qinglian halted their conversation.
Three figures descended into Crescent Valley.
“Are you still recruiting rogue cultivators in your Luo Tian Creed?”
“Are all of you at the Ninth Level of Qi Refinement?” Murong Qinglian said in surprise, “How should I address you?”
The woman at the forefront smiled slightly and performed a courtesy.
“My name is Sima Huiniang, you can just call me Huiniang.”
In the small courtyard.
Luo Chen was seated at the desk, withdrawing the dark wooden plaque from between his eyebrows.
With a pensive look on his face, he showed a trace of hesitation.
Finally, he shook his head slowly.
“This method of foundation establishment should only be used as a last resort!”
This wooden plaque was a possession left by Gao Tingyuan.
The origin, however, can be traced back to the Immortal Mansion of the demonic cultivator Gu Yue over two hundred years ago.
It contains a fragmented cultivation method called “Soul-Refining True Technique”.
Yes, it’s fragmented.
Records only go up to Middle Stage Foundation Establishment, and the remainder is missing.
Even the beginning section is filled with contradictions.
Perhaps the mysteries to resolve these contradictions lie in the missing part!
Luo Chen didn’t care for this method, what he was interested in was the soul cultivation method of foundation establishment it noted.
“With nine hundred and ninety-nine souls fused into oneself, one can establish their foundation!”
“With nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine souls fused into oneself, one can form a Golden Core!”
“With ninety-nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine souls fused into oneself, one can cultivate a Nascent Soul!”
“To achieve Divine Transformation, one needs a full million souls!”
This demonic cultivation method fundamentally changes the quality of one’s spiritual power through increasing the quantity, with killing and devouring as necessary conditions for advancing.
Though it may seem shocking at first, the true impact comes upon understanding it.
The souls required must be of the same level as the current stage.
If at Qi Refinement Finalization, than over nine hundred Late Stage Qi Refinement Cultivator souls would be needed.
If at Foundation Establishment Finalization, then over nine thousand Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator souls would be required.
As for the latter stages, the same logic is applied!
Who dares to cultivate such a terrifying method?
Luo Chen certainly did not dare.
Not only doesn’t he dare to, but he wouldn’t even cultivate a little bit of it, even if no one was watching.
This is because this fragment of a method only speaks of the fusion of souls but does not explain how to clear the numerous side effects that arise from merging so many souls into oneself.
Just think about the crazy transformation from having thousands or even tens of thousands of souls in oneself.
The rogue cultivator Gu Yue was truly out of options when he embarked on this path.
He succeeded, he established his foundation, and even made a name for himself as the Soul-Refining Rogue Cultivator.
But in the end, it was a tragic sight.
He was hunted down by the Righteous Sects and ultimately self-destructed, leaving only a wisp of his soul to return to his Immortal Mansion.
From Gu Yue’s erratic autobiography, it can be inferred that after he established his foundation, he lost his clarity of mind.
Gao Tingyuan truly had no other option, his dantian was broken, and the normal methods of foundation establishment were inaccessible.
He could only risk this dangerous move.
But before he achieved anything, he died at the hands of Luo Chen while seeking revenge.
“Although this method may not be necessary, the minor techniques recorded in it could offer some insight.”
Two techniques from the “Soul-Refining True Technique” emerged in Luo Chen’s mind.
