After the sword body accepted the ownerless soul, the next step was to cultivate arduously.
If there was a spirit, there must be a body. To condense a sword embryo, one must rely on the sword essence and the blood of the sword master.
The amount of sword essence depended on the grade of the immortal sword.
Leng Qingqiu's Ruthless Sword was a good sword, but after it broke, it was completely destroyed. She was now using a relatively ordinary immortal sword.
The quality of this immortal sword was not as good as Ruthless Sword. The sword essence in the sword body was relatively less. In this way, to condense a sword embryo, one needed more blood essence from the master.
Lin Fan's immortal sword was a rather good one. It was a bit higher grade than Leng Qingqiu's immortal sword. The sword body had more sword essence. This way, when he cultivated the sword spirit, he would correspondingly consume less blood essence.
Both of them were cultivation fanatics. When they cultivated, they could not restrain their passion. Once they started, they could not stop. Both of them bit their index fingers and dripped their blood essence on their respective immortal swords.
When the dark red blood dripped on the sword body, the ownerless soul in the sword body quickly swam like a fish to absorb the blood essence. Following that, the sword body heated up and shined, buzzing and vibrating.
It was very strange.
"Enough Qingqiu, this is too harmful to the body." Seeing Leng Qingqiu constantly dripping blood on the immortal sword, Lin Fan stopped her.
"No matter how important the sword spirit is, it is not as important as your body.
Moreover, I hope you can be pregnant with my child as soon as possible. "
Leng Qingqiu continued to drip blood, saying: "Pregnancy is really nothing to me. It won't affect my cultivation."
"That won't do. I won't allow you to be in any danger." Lin Fan solemnly grabbed Leng Qingqiu's hand.
Leng Qingqiu saw that Wang Xiao Qiang cared about her so much and her heart warmed. She obediently nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
"Qingqiu, you need to know everything about cultivation.
You have to do it step by step. Being greedy will only lead to the opposite effect. "Lin Fan hugged Leng Qingqiu in his arms and poured some spiritual energy into her as a supplement.
…
As expected.
The Demonic Sound Wall drifted endlessly in the border of Yue. The Demonic Sound Wall was filled with filth.
Even Divine Immortal Realm cultivators could not resist the charm it formed, let alone those ordinary mortals.
Thus, wherever the Demonic Sound Wall went, the local citizens of the Yue Kingdom would be charmed to the point that they were unable to control themselves, hovering between life and death. As a result, the Yue Kingdom played out one drama after another of corrupting human relationships.
It just so happened that this "Demonic Sound Wall" killed both men and women.
It was not something that anyone could resist, unless it was a xiuzhe with a very strong will.
All the monks of Heavenly Cloud Temple had come out of the cave, but there were only thirty thousand of them. These thirty thousand monks split up into several hundred groups and went to search for the Demonic Sound Wall.
Finally, on the evening of three days later, in a bustling city, a group of monks discovered the Demonic Sound Wall.
At that time, the Demonic Sound Arm was floating on top of a totem pole in the city square, like a huge rear-projection television.
They kept playing the scenes, attracting a large number of people. As a result, tens of thousands of men and women were attracted by the huge charm.
Her eyes were dazzled, and her soul was turned upside down. She couldn't tell the difference between old and young, male and female.
When the monks of Heavenly Cloud Temple witnessed the scene, they felt their blood rush to their heads and their souls quiver. All of them lowered their heads and closed their eyes, chanting Buddha's name.
Then, they tried everything they could to subdue the Demonic Sound Wall.
In the end, not only did they fail to subdue the demonic creature, they were almost charmed by it.
Helpless, they could only summon Master Yun Jian with a Communication Charm.
When Master Yun Jian received the news, she hurried over. When she descended above the city square with her moon-white cassock, Yun Jian looked down at the sensual scene in the square and listened to the sounds that filled the air. With a solemn expression, she put her palms together and sighed, "Amitabha, sin, sin!"
After saying that, he waved his hand at the Demonic Sound Wall. Immediately, the white kasaya under his feet flew out and expanded with the wind. In an instant, it turned into a curtain that could cover an area of fifty meters and rolled toward the Demonic Sound Wall.
As if sensing something, the Demonic Sound Wall shrunk abruptly to the size of a mahjong tile before the cassock could reach it. As it spun, it slipped past the gigantic moon-white cassock and shot toward Yun Jian like a shooting star.
Yun Jian's expression was grim as she chanted Buddha's name. With a shake of the vajra in her hand, golden rays shot toward the mahjong tile sized Demonic Sound Wall.
Black demonic Qi exuded from the Demonic Sound Wall. It was so dense that it enveloped the wall. Unfazed by the golden rays, it went straight to Yun Jian and expanded in a flash, turning from a crystal the size of a mahjong tile to a crystal the size of a projector TV. A woman's body was displayed on the crystal wall along with her seductive voice.
It was unbelievably sensual and sensual.
Yun Jian's eyes widened as if she had seen a demon from hell or heard a demon's wail. She shut her eyes again, looking pained. Turning around with a swoosh, she fled into the distance.
As she fled, she shouted, "Retreat! Withdraw Tianyun Shi!"
The Demonic Sound Wall refused to give up and chased after Yun Jian.
Yun Jian had completely underestimated the Demonic Sound Wall's seduction. Or rather, he had overestimated his willpower.
He thought that he could resist the seduction but when he saw the man and woman in the crystal wall and heard the voice, he felt like his head was about to explode. The chaotic flow of Qi and blood within him nearly caused him to explode.
As an eminent monk, he had long seen through life and death. He was not afraid of dying but he was afraid that he would do something unsightly like the people in the square after being seduced. Moreover, he was the abbot of Tianyun Temple, a renowned immortal and Buddha, a leading figure in the world of Buddhist cultivation. His reputation was not only in Yue Country but also the entire mainland.
Therefore, he was scared and fled.
He thought that to subdue the Demonic Sound Wall, he had to work with the other three immortals and Buddhas or activate the Blood Veil Formation in Tianyun Temple.
Otherwise, it was impossible.
Pursued by the Demonic Sound Wall, when Yun Jian fled to Tianyun Temple, the sky had already darkened.
With the chimes of the curtains, Tianyun Temple gradually fell into a deep silence. Only the top of the Rebirth Tower in the center of the temple still shone with a red glow. As the night deepened, the glow grew brighter, changing from the initial red to red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and purple. It was breathtakingly beautiful.
Although the seven emotions and six desires were a major Buddhist abstinence, the monks in the temple who claimed to be supercilious would involuntarily cast their gazes at this beautiful view. Even the female cultivators of the Holy Maiden Nunnery near Tianyun Temple would stop whatever they were doing and walk out of their houses to look up at the beautiful view at the top of the tower.
After looking at it for a long time, ripples would appear in those eyes that were like stagnant water.
Due to its age, the Rebirth Tower was ancient and decayed. Usually, only the cleaners and the monks who guarded the tower would enter and exit the tower.
The top floor of the pagoda had always been listed as a forbidden area. Even the abbot was not allowed to enter. Therefore, regarding the beautiful seven-colored light at the top of the pagoda, everyone knew very little. The common rumor was that there was a seven-colored luminous pearl placed at the top of the pagoda. Every night, it would emit light.
As the night breeze blew, a woman's silhouette appeared in front of Tianyun Temple's door like a phantom.
She was dressed in black and wore a wide-brimmed hat with a black veil that covered her face. Her jade-like hand was holding a black clay pot.
…
The woman in black went up to knock on the door.
The two monks who guarded the door were a little cautious when they saw that it was a woman, going up to bow. "Greetings, dear patron."
The woman in black returned the greeting with a bow and said earnestly, "I'd like to see the temple's abbot, Master Yun Jian.
I'll have to trouble the two eminent monks to inform them. "
"I'm sorry, Master Yun Jian is out on an errand. She's not in the temple," one of the monks answered honestly.
In spite of it, the woman did not believe it and fell to her knees, begging, "Please, I have something to ask Master Yun Jian. It's a serious matter and there can't be any delay. Otherwise, the price will be terrible …"
"Master Yun Jian really isn't here," the monk said in a panic.
"If you don't let me in, I'll keep kneeling," the woman said resolutely.
The two monks were helpless and whispered to each other. One of them said, "Our abbot is really not here. Only Master Yun Yin is in the temple. Why don't I inform her for you?"
"Master Yun Yin, is it that 'Reclining Buddha'?"
"Uh, yes."
The monk who guarded the door reminded her softly, feeling awkward, "But you must remember, don't address Master Yun Yin as' Reclining Buddha 'when you see him later …"
"Yes, I understand," the woman in black answered sincerely.
"I'll have to trouble the two of you to inform my daughter."
A moment later.
The woman in black entered a meditation room.
An old monk sat on a cushion in the middle of the room. His face was upright and kind. He was missing both his legs and only had his upper body.
"Greetings, Master!" The woman in black knelt on the floor and bowed deeply.
She knew that the old monk before her was one of the four deities, Reclining Buddha.
It was Master Yun Yin. Master Yun Yin had lost both his legs when he was young and had been cultivating while lying down. He was known as Reclining Buddha.
The old monk glanced at the woman in black and said indifferently, "Master Yun Yin.
She said indifferently, "Benefactress, what brings you here at night?"
"Master, please grant my wish," the woman in black pleaded.
"Tell me what it is," Master Yun Yin replied nonchalantly.
"My younger brother was schemed against a few years ago.
He's dead and only a wisp of his soul is left.
This wisp of soul has been wandering for years and missed the chance to reincarnate. I don't want him to be a wandering ghost forever, so I'm here to ask you to give him a chance to reincarnate with the help of your temple's Rebirth Pagoda. "
Generally speaking, as long as one's soul was not destroyed after death, they could reincarnate within three years.
Reborn as a human but if one missed the opportunity of three years, they would not be able to reincarnate and could only be a wandering ghost.
Unless they borrowed Tianyun Temple's Rebirth Pagoda.
The Rebirth Pagoda was there to help wandering souls who had missed the chance to reincarnate.
The Rebirth Pagoda could deliver all living beings and was a virtuous deed!
"I'm truly sorry. The Rebirth Pagoda has been sealed for many years.
There's no reason for it to be opened again. Please go back, "Master Yun Yin said apologetically.
The woman in black shuddered at his words and dimmed for a moment.
Instead of standing up, she kowtowed to Master Yun Yin and pleaded, "Master, I beg you. Please make an exception this once."
"It's no use begging me. I can't break the temple's rules for you alone. Besides, I'm not the abbot. The temple's abbot, Master Yun Jian, isn't in the temple right now.
If you insist, we'll wait for Master Yun Jian to come back in a few days. "
"Master.
My younger brother's soul is hurt. He won't be able to reincarnate again.
I'm afraid he'll be destroyed. By then, he won't be able to reincarnate even if he wants to.
Please, they all say that Buddhism is merciful. You won't leave him in the lurch, will you? "The woman in black begged as she kowtowed.
Her forehead was bleeding from the kowtow.
Master Yun Yin could not bear it and heaved a long sigh, saying, "Amitabha. Fine, I'll break the precedent for you today."
"Thank you, Master. Thank you so much." The woman in black was moved to tears.
"But I'll have to check your identity first.
If Female Patron is a good person, This Penniless Monk will definitely help you. If you are an evil person, then I'm sorry, This Penniless Monk will not only not help you, but will also chase you out of the temple. "
As Master Yun Yin spoke, a mirror appeared in his right hand with a flip of his hand. The mirror was made of bronze with embossed patterns, looking quaint and proper.
It was just that the mirror was not very bright.
The black-clothed woman trembled after hearing Cloud Hidden's words, then she remained motionless, silent, and bowed her head.
She looked very nervous.
Grand Master Kumin pointed the simple mirror at the black-clothed woman and recited a Buddhist mantra. The mirror immediately lit up and then, like a movie, a scene appeared:
The scenes were of vengeance and murder, the glint of blades and shadows of swords, the rain of blood. The images were either of the woman in black being hunted down or her murdering someone …
"Amitabha. I didn't expect you to commit such a sin of murder." Master Yun Yin sighed indignantly.
"Master, it's not like that. Those people are all bad people. They deserve to die!" The woman in black protested.
"What about this person?" Master Yun Yin pointed at an old monk who was killed by the woman in black in the mirror and asked, "This is Master Mo Xiu from Yellow Dragon Empire's Falu Temple. He's my friend. I won't be mistaken. Master Mo Xiu has accumulated virtue and done good deeds all his life. I didn't expect him to be killed by you. Heavenly Demoness, how do you explain this?"
"Ah!"
The woman in black, who was the Heavenly Demoness, saw that Master Yun Yin had seen through her identity. Her body trembled and she repeatedly waved her hand and said, "I didn't kill Master Mo Xiu. No, no … he was poisoned by a scoundrel's Gu. In order to not do something heartless, he asked me to kill him. I, I was just in danger …"
"Well, Heavenly Demoness, don't quibble anymore. Your Heavenly Demoness title is enough to prove that you are an evil person. I ask you, how did the Demonic Sound Wall reappear in Jianghu?
… "
Although the Demonic Sound Wall was a sacred object of the Demon Sect, it was later controlled by the Heavenly Demoness for a period of time. This matter was no longer a secret in the continent.
The Heavenly Demoness had the title "Heavenly Demoness" because of the Demonic Sound Wall.
"Demonic Sound Wall, I, I don't know. After I lost the Demonic Sound Wall two years ago, I haven't been able to find it." The Heavenly Demoness said in surprise, "Could it be …"
"It has reappeared in Jianghu. Now the Yue Empire is wreaking havoc everywhere, causing the Great Yue Empire to lose all morals!" Master Yun Yin said. "Ai, what a sin!"
The Heavenly Demoness knew the might of the Demonic Sound Wall. When she heard that it had reappeared in Jianghu, her face became solemn and she said, "Master, the Demonic Sound Wall is extremely powerful. It kills both men and women. It is very difficult to subdue it. How about we make a deal? You let me enter the Reincarnation Pagoda and let my younger brother's soul reincarnate. I will subdue the Demonic Sound Wall …"
"A deal?"
Master Yun Yin's eyes turned cold, "Don't mention any deal. Not to mention that the Reincarnation Pagoda has been sealed. Even if it wasn't sealed, it would definitely not allow a devil like you to enter."
"Master Yun Yin, if the Demonic Sound Wall goes out of control, without me, there is no way to subdue it."
"Humph, what a joke. My Heavenly Cloud Temple has more than ten thousand monks. We also have a master with profound magic power. How can we not subdue the Demonic Sound Wall?
How dare a puny Heavenly Demoness like you boast here? Get out of the temple now or I'll get someone to kick you out. "
The Heavenly Demoness was intrigued. Based on what she heard, the abbot and all the monks of Heavenly Cloud Temple had gone to subdue the Demonic Sound Wall. No wonder it was so quiet when she entered the temple just now. Since there are not many monks in the temple, why don't I take the chance to barge into the Reincarnation Pagoda and send my younger brother to the afterlife …
With that in mind, the Heavenly Demon kowtowed to Yun Yin again and said regretfully, "Since Grandmaster Yun Yin isn't willing to go through, I'll take my leave for now. But I'll come again when Grandmaster Yun Yin is here."
With that, the Heavenly Demoness got up and exited the meditation room.
Releasing her deific consciousness, she saw that there were less than twenty spiritual energy waves in the entire Heavenly Cloud Temple. It was obvious that all the monks had left the cave and were no longer in the temple. Delighted, the Heavenly Demoness went straight to the Reincarnation Pagoda with the ceramic pot in her hand.
What she said just now was merely a smokescreen to confuse Master Yun Yin. She decided to act now.
