"I guess...it uses the power of the true spirit in the blood."
Ling Tian said slowly.
Having said that, I felt that this method was too scary, and my temples were pounding.
Ou Jiezi's face was expressionless, and his handsome face revealed a rare coldness.
"That's right, this Heaven and Earth Furnace was originally an ordinary mountain. Thousands of years ago, fire from outside the sky fell here, giving birth to the Sky Fire. And in the magma, the Sky Fire was filled with spiritual energy, causing many parties to fight."
"In the end, the founder of the Shijue Medicine Pavilion used a secret method to summon the true spirit and suppressed it here for the disciples to use, thus achieving the sect's thousand-year legacy."
"And that secret method is caused by practitioners whose bloodline contains the power of the true spirit. They use their blood to induce it."
"It took tens of thousands of lives to summon the Heavenly Fire. After that massacre, the families with the true spirit bloodline were almost wiped out. My ancestor was one of them."
The words fell.
Ling Tian on the side felt his head buzzing.
He suddenly remembered that his father had said that the Ling family was once a wealthy cultivating family. Later, in order to avoid disaster, the whole family moved to Beiyue City on the border of the Southern Territory.
Even though the family bloodline possesses the power of the true spirit, there have never been any outstanding practitioners. In recent years, the alchemy realm has become the highest existence in the family, and it can be seen that it has declined to the extreme.
It seems that in that massacre, the real strong men of the Ling family had died, and the rest were ordinary clan members who had fled.
Ling Tian guessed why the declining Ling family could seal Yun Qiong and possess heavenly fire.
Eighty percent of it is due to my ancestors' fault.
Thinking of this, Ling Tian clenched his fists very tightly, veins popped out on his elbows, and said coldly: "Thousands of people have blood, what a great gesture."
"You will know later how dare they do this."
Ou Jiezi looked at the mountains towering in the clouds ahead, with murderous intent in his eyes.
Ling Tian nodded solemnly.
There are some things that you can't rush, just lie dormant and then kill with one blow, giving the opponent the cruelest revenge!
...
"This time, Ou Jiezi seems to have made a new move?"
In the Heaven and Earth Furnace Zenith Hall, a middle-aged man stood with his hands behind his hands. He was wearing a purple and gold robe, but there were obviously more gold lines on the outer robe than purple, making him look more noble and extraordinary.
This person is none other than Chu Gaohan, the master of Shijue Medicine Pavilion and Tianjue Palace and one of the highest officials in the sect.
"Yes, Palace Master. This year, Jidu Yaozhai seems to have recruited a new disciple to participate in the competition. It is amazing that someone with a cultivation level in the Ningxu Realm can refine high-level Xuanpin elixirs."
A short, fat old man bowed and answered.
This person was Liao Yuan, the Beidou elder of Shijue Medicine Pavilion who was responsible for the aftermath of the Pang family that day.
"Dou Dan in a while. If Ou Jiezi uses the power of true fire, then... close the formation."
After years of fighting each other for elixirs, Chu Gaohan lost more and won less, and Ou Jiezi's reputation as an elixir sage spread.
The Supreme One looks down upon the world and is a saint.
And Ou Jiezi even threatened to borrow heavenly fire again. If it comes true and he really succeeds in refining the immortal elixir, he will become a mountain that all alchemists cannot climb.
It can be said that the Taoist heart is uneasy.
In order to get rid of the inner demon that was about to emerge, Chu Gaohan decided to strike first.
"My subordinate understands."
Liao Yuan clasped his fists and accepted the order, his eyes falling at the foot of the mountain with a look of regret in his eyes.
A generation of talented people died just like that. Even though they have different opinions, they still feel it is a pity.
…
At this time, Jiezi from Lingtian District was slowly climbing the mountain.
These places of powerful battles are not ordinary alchemy chambers dug into the mountains.
Instead, you are sitting in the main hall on the top of the mountain overlooking the panoramic view of the Heaven and Earth Furnace.
The main hall was built on top of a volcano with rolling lava, but a secret method was used to isolate the steaming heat, leaving only a green and quiet place.
It looks unique on the surface, but actually shows the strong foundation of Shijue Medicine Pavilion, shocking everyone.
As soon as we arrived at the main hall, there were already several people visiting.
They are all practitioners whose age cannot be discerned and whose realm is extremely high.
It seems that the forces of all parties have not died down. These powerful alchemists have not backed down even if they know that there are only two forces left competing.
He regards alchemy as his ultimate lifelong pursuit.
When everyone saw Ou Jiezi entering the door, they all clasped their fists in salute and said hello to him.
At first glance, Ou Jiezi is a master whose strength convinces everyone and makes everyone envious.
Ling Tian glanced around randomly and saw only one person with a smile on his face but a cold look in his eyes. In contrast, he looked a little out of place.
Obviously, he pretended to be flattering, but in fact he was deeply hostile to Ou Jiezi.
When Ling Tian saw that he was wearing a purple-gold robe, he recognized him as a member of the Shijue Medicine Pavilion. He saw that he was today's biggest opponent, and felt extremely normal.
At this time, the man walked towards Ou Jiezi, with a false smile on his face, and said slowly: "The new disciple of Dan Sheng is indeed a great one among men. I haven't seen you command your entourage for many years, and today is an exception."
"Palace Master Chu, you are so polite. You are just an incompetent boy. What I have learned throughout my life has already been passed on to my successors. I can be considered a successor. I will live up to the cultivation of my master."
Ou Jiezi said calmly.
But when these words reached Chu Gaohan's ears, they didn't have the same taste.
You have successors in Jidu Yaozhai, but two geniuses have died in our Shijue Yaozhai.
This is one person exchanging two lives, it’s a desperate situation!
"Yes, it took many years for Jidu Yaozhai to produce this single seedling. Alchemy Saint must educate him well, lest one day his future suddenly becomes bleak and he never sees the sun again."
Chu Gaohan said sarcastically.
The cultivation level of the two is almost the same, but due to the true spirit of blood, Ou Jiezi has always been beaten by Ou Jiezi in the path of alchemy.
The more talented you are, the less you can tolerate others being better than yourself.
Not to mention, his disciples are stronger than his own disciples.
It is really unacceptable to be at a disadvantage everywhere.
"Some people died when they could have lived. Some people lived longing for their death. Why is this?"
Ou Jiezi smiled lightly and continued to answer: "Because I dare to protect him, and you, do you dare?"
Hearing this, Chu Gaohan's face changed drastically and he poked the painful spot in his heart.
They hold high positions, but they don't care about friendship. If a disciple dies, they will at best be angry and have a grudge.
But if you say that you personally avenge your disciples.
That's a joke.
Why?
For the sake of countless disciples who were neither relatives nor friends, he risked losing both sides, but he could still settle the score.
After all, if you don’t do it for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth!
But in front of everyone, he exposed his shortcomings.
This is very embarrassing.
Chu Gaohan pointed to the rolling lava outside and sneered: "This will be your fate in the end, do you understand?"
The fate, naturally, refers to those souls who died in the fire.
"I don't understand, but I hope that one day you can go in and take a roll and understand their pain sooner."
Ou Jiezi showed no sign of weakness and retorted with sarcasm.
Chu Gaohan's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he said without concealment, "Remember, you come here today and there are only two consequences. First, you lose to me in Doudan. Second, you die! Today you will be defeated by meson!"
