Chapter 842 Soul Cultivation
"According to what Wu Xin said back then, her retreat this time could be as short as three to five years or as long as ten years. But now fifteen years have passed, why hasn't she come out yet?"
Although Liang Yan was a little worried, outsiders couldn't help with this kind of retreat to break through the bottleneck.
If he breaks in rashly, if the other party reaches a critical moment in his cultivation, he will easily go crazy.
So even though Liang Yan was a little worried, in this case, he couldn't share anything with him. He could only leave a transmission note at the door of the cave.
If something really happened to her, she could contact him immediately.
After doing all this, Liang Yan silently left the cave where Wuxin was retreating and came to the discussion pavilion of Xinghe Palace.
When he came back this time, he did not disturb anyone along the way. The entire Flying Star Alliance did not know that their leader had returned.
The reason why he did this was that he did not want to alert the enemy, and planned to secretly investigate the "Yellow Spring Road" monks of the Flying Star Alliance.
This time the Blood Moon Alliance and the group gave Liang Yan a deep understanding of how deep-rooted this organization hidden in the dark is. The forces in the four major alliances may have been infiltrated by them long ago.
Since some of the ten Moon Lords of the Blood Moon Alliance have betrayed them, it is impossible for them to be spared.
Liang Yan pondered for a moment in the meeting hall, then raised his hand and fired four magic spells, flying in four different directions.
After half a stick of incense, four figures flew through the air one after another, and they all stopped outside the door of the Council Pavilion.
"Come in!"
Liang Yan's faint voice came from the attic. The four people outside the door looked at each other and saw a hint of excitement in each other's eyes.
The next moment, a beautiful middle-aged woman in palace attire stepped forward and opened the door to the attic first. Then four people filed in, all looking at Liang Yan in the attic.
"Leader! You are finally back!" A burly bald man said excitedly.
Liang Yan smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for your hard work while I was away."
The four people in front of him were Luo Wu, the elder of the execution hall, and Mrs. Miaoyan, the elder of Zhike. ", the Anbo elder "Blood Swordsman" and the seal bearer Leya.
The Blood Swordsman frowned and suddenly said:
"Leader, your level of cultivation"
As soon as he said this, the other three people present also looked at Liang Yan curiously.
"The cultivation of the alliance leader is becoming increasingly unclear. I, Old Luo, could still make a rough guess before, but now" Luo Wu shook his head, showing a trace of annoyance.
"No need to think blindly. If my guess is right, the alliance leader is now a genuine Jindan senior, right?" The Blood Swordsman finally expressed his guess.
"Golden elixir?"
Mrs. Miaoyan and Leya were both slightly startled, and then looked at Liang Yan at the same time, with some expectation in their eyes.
Liang Yan looked around at everyone and said with a smile: "Yes, not long ago, Liang was lucky enough to condense the golden elixir."
As soon as he said this, it was like a thunderbolt in the room. When there was an explosion, everyone was shocked at first, and then became ecstatic.
"Congratulations to the leader of the alliance for advancing to the golden elixir. I'm afraid I won't be able to defeat you in such a huge hell!" Mrs. Miaoyan was the first to step forward and congratulate.
"Haha, the leader of the alliance has been promoted to the golden elixir. From now on, I, Lao Luo, can follow him to be popular and popular!" Luo Wu touched his bald head with a proud look on his face.
Leya and the Blood Swordsman didn't like to joke much, but at this moment, their faces were excited. It was obvious that Liang Yan's advancement to the golden elixir was a reassurance for everyone in the Flying Star Alliance.
"The matter of me advancing to the Golden Elixir should not be leaked for the time being." Liang Yan waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said: "The matter of my return to Xinghe Palace must also be kept secret."
< br>“Why is this?”
Leya frowned and said: “Leader Liang enters Jindan, this is good news. Now that Hell is in turmoil and there are battles at the border, this news is even more needed to boost morale."
Liang Yan shook his head and said, "Compared to the other three alliances. The hidden dangers within our Flying Star Alliance are the most deadly.”
"What?"
Luo Wu and others were slightly startled, obviously not reacting.
Liang Yan's face gradually became serious, and he slowly said to the four people: "Actually, there is a 'Huangquan Road' organization hidden in the hell. They have infiltrated all the forces, and their purpose is to destroy them. Provoke a fight between the four alliances."
" The reason why I secretly returned to Xinghe Palace this time is to completely eliminate the "Huangquan Road" members in our Flying Star Alliance. It is also for this matter that I summoned you here today."
The four people present listened. Finally, I was a little surprised at first, and then a little secretly happy.
Liang Yan specified that he wanted to thoroughly investigate the traitors hiding in the Feixing Alliance. For such confidential matters, only the four of them were summoned, which was enough to show his trust in them.
In fact, these four people in front of him are indeed worthy of Liang Yan's trust.
They are all members of the original Yunyan Club. Although their strength is not top-notch, they have followed Liang Yan for the longest time. They have been tested by the "Yunxiaozi" rebellion and have always been loyal to him.
Liang Yan also had some knowledge of Huangquan Lu’s style of conduct through his previous secret investigation in the Blood Moon League. This organization advocates “the essence is more valuable than the more”, and most of its members are some of the more powerful ones among the four major alliances. status monk.
Luo Wu, Mrs. Miaoyan, and Blood Swordsman were all casual cultivators before. As for Leya, she was struggling to support the dying Yunyan Society alone.
It can be said that if it had not been for Liang Yan's arrival, they would have been extremely ordinary monks and would never have reached their current status.
So no matter how you look at these four people, they don’t look like monks from Huangquan Road.
"Leader, since you can trust us, just tell us directly. What exactly do you want us to do? No matter the swords, mountains or seas of fire, I, Old Luo, will never frown!" Luo Wu patted his chest and said.
Liang Yan smiled slightly and said: "Elder Luo's words are serious. This matter requires wisdom rather than courage. There is no need for swords and fire. All you need to do is be careful and don't alert the snake!"
Next, He, Mrs. Miaoyan, Leya and others discussed it carefully in the meeting room. After half an hour, everyone finally formulated a detailed plan.
"Let's do this."
Liang Yan is obviously very satisfied with the suggestions of Mrs. Miaoyan and Leya. When it comes to affairs in the alliance, he really needs to rely on these two people.
"By the way, if you encounter danger during the investigation, you must act according to your ability. Remember, I don't need you to fight your opponents desperately. Once you find something fishy, just report it to me and eradicate the traitor. "Leave it to Liang," Liang Yan added.
In fact, his worry is not unreasonable. After all, there may be traitors among the seven Star Lords, and among the four people in front of him, only the Blood Swordsman can match the Star Lords, and the strength of the others is still inferior.
After hearing this, the four people present had a hint of gratitude in their eyes, and they all bowed to Liang Yan and said, "Don't worry, leader, I will do what I can within my ability!"
"Okay, you all go down, remember to act according to the plan."
Liang Yan waved his hand, and the four of them took their orders and exited the meeting room at the same time.
In the next six months, Luo Wu, Mrs. Miaoyan, Blood Swordsman and Leiya began to secretly investigate the major envoys of the Flying Star Alliance according to the plan.
Since Liang Yan doesn’t want to bring this matter to light yet, when he encounters some “Yellow Spring Road” monks who have solid evidence of crimes and want to kill them all, he always takes action secretly to help the four of them. People remove obstacles.
Soon, most of the "Yellow Spring Road" monks in the Flying Star Alliance were eliminated, and the remaining ones were quick to see opportunities. Seeing that something was wrong, they immediately hid themselves.
During this period, many monks from the Flying Star Alliance suddenly disappeared, including two of the Seven Star Lords. This made some members of the Flying Star Alliance who did not know the truth worried, and there were various speculations and gossips. It also spread.
Some people say that it was because the leader of the alliance failed to break through the golden elixir in seclusion and died, and other alliances knew the news and began to secretly attack members of the Flying Star Alliance.
Some people say that the alliance leader was accidentally captured when he went out, so the Flying Star Alliance secretly assembled a force with the intention of rescuing the alliance leader. Those monks who disappeared went to perform this task.
There are various versions of speculation, but without exception, they are all related to Liang Yan, the leader of the alliance who has disappeared for more than ten years.
At this moment, Liang Yan himself was sitting in the study, looking through the files submitted by Leya, with a hint of contemplation on his face.
“Liya and Mrs. Miaoyan are really very capable. According to their methods, they found many ‘Huangquan Road’ monks hiding in the dark.”
"The entire clean-up process has gone smoothly so far. At least these people on the surface have been eradicated, and those monks who have hidden deeply , I’m afraid it won’t be found out in a while. It seems that I should find a time to announce the news of my return, otherwise these various versions of rumors may be taken seriously.”
Liang. Yan just sat in the study, thinking about various recent events in the alliance, and suddenly frowned, with a strange look on his face.
“Strange, who is here?”
At this moment, within the scope of his consciousness, there was a very hidden aura, which was rapidly approaching the Galaxy Palace. Moreover, the person's cultivation was as deep as the sea, and he obviously had the strength above the Golden Core realm.
In the past, he would have been a little frightened, because the golden elixir monk who came here was extremely powerful, much better than Meng Qibai and Tiemushan.
But today, he has no fear at all.
Liang Yan's face was as calm as water. He flicked his right sleeve, a breeze blew by, and he disappeared into the study.
Outside the Galaxy Palace, a burst of green light circulated, and Liang Yan's figure slowly appeared.
He stood out of thin air and looked up at the horizon not far away. It was blank and there was no abnormality at all.
However, Liang Yan frowned slightly and shouted in this direction:
"Who is coming? Let's get to know him quickly!"
After he shouted, In the mid-air in the distance, a weak fluctuation suddenly appeared. As several rays of colorful clouds flowed, a faint figure gradually condensed and took shape.
This man is an old man with a white beard wearing rich clothes. He is covered in jewels and has a dazzling ring on each of his ten fingers. From a distance, he looks like a wealthy man. secular businessmen.
"Haha, fellow Taoist Liang, when we first met, he really lived up to his reputation!"
As soon as the old man appeared, he bowed his hands to Liang Yan and laughed loudly.
"Is it this sneaky thing for you when we first meet?" Liang Yan narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "Conceal your aura and sneak into the stronghold of our Flying Star Alliance secretly. With this alone, I can kill you Kill here."
“Ashamed, ashamed!” The white-bearded old man smiled awkwardly: “Actually, I concealed my aura. I just didn’t want to disturb others and wanted to be alone with Mr. Liang for a while.”
“Look for it. Mine?" Liang Yan was slightly stunned.
"Hey, I heard that Liang Zunshi has advanced to the golden elixir. Shou's hands are itchy, so I came here for a while!"
Before he finished speaking, the white-bearded old man raised his hand and patted his forehead, and a dazzling golden light shone in the air. It appeared in the back of his head, as if it was about to pierce the clouds and shine thousands of miles away.
Liang Yan narrowed his eyes and looked intently. He saw another whistling sound coming from the golden light, and a strange bird with two wings and golden feathers jumped out from it. There was a scorching light in the air.
"Golden-winged Dapeng?"
The surprise in Liang Yan's eyes flashed away.
Legend has it that in the human continent, there are monks who fuse their souls with the remnant souls of ancient spiritual beasts to understand the laws of the great road. This secret technique is called soul cultivation.
The conditions required for soul cultivation are extremely harsh. The first is the remnant soul of an ancient spirit beast. This thing can only be encountered but cannot be sought.
The second thing is that the attributes of one's own soul must match those of the found remnant soul, otherwise the forced fusion will result in physical death.
It is already extremely difficult to find the remnant soul of an ancient spiritual beast, and having your own soul match it is simply a matter of choosing one out of ten thousand.
It is precisely for this reason that the number of soul cultivators is extremely rare. However, once the fusion is successful, you can inherit some of the magical powers of the ancient spiritual beasts and gain the upper hand in the same level of fighting.
Liang Yan has been practicing Taoism for decades, and this is the first time he saw Soul Cultivator today.
However, he did not have any fear, but showed a hint of excitement.
"It just so happens that after breaking through the golden elixir, I haven't had much serious fights with others. Let me try my hand at you today."
Liang Yan said to himself and raised his eyebrows. As soon as he patted the storage bag on his waist, two sword beams shot out.
The two sword lights, one black and one purple, drew two different trajectories in mid-air, heading towards the location of the golden-winged roc.
"Ang!"
A clear neighing sound came. The roc flapped its wings, and its entire body turned into an afterimage and disappeared from the air. The next moment, it appeared hundreds of feet away.
The Purple Thunder Tianyin Sword and the Black Lotus Sword slashed into the air at the same time, hovered in mid-air, and returned to Liang Yan's side.
Looking again at this time, the figure of the white-bearded old man has completely disappeared, while the shadow of the golden-winged roc has become more solid.
Liang Yan knew that this was the soul cultivator’s usual method in battle, to completely integrate himself into the ancient spiritual beasts. If he did not defeat the golden-winged roc in front of him, he would not be able to hurt the white-bearded old man. My own.
