Chapter 792: The Pailing Gate in the Counterattack
The Jindan monks present were all the backbone of the Peiling Sect, and they naturally knew something about Zhang's never-ending death.
"Since the two ancestors never died, why did they never show up when the sect was facing crisis?"
"Isn't the Seven Sealed Burial Pagoda closed? Why have the two ancestors still not appeared?"
"Could it be that the two ancestors suffered trauma in the pagoda and are currently in retreat somewhere to adjust their breath?"
New questions were swirling in the minds of the Jindan monks present, but it was always good news, which was very important for boosting morale.
"You nephews, please step aside. I am also injured and need to adjust my breathing. If you have not been attacked by Yuanying monks or fourth-level monsters, all matters will be handled by you with full authority. Please do not disturb me."
As he fell, his figure had disappeared into the hall.
The three middle and late Jindan monks were in a state of confusion, and it was obvious that they could not understand Zhao Shoushou's choice.
According to the original plan, this ancestor should be very happy to agree and take control of the entire sect immediately. Who would have thought that things would backfire.
"Two senior brothers, what should we do?" A monk in the middle stage of the Golden Core asked involuntarily.
"Since Uncle Master doesn't like to be disturbed by the various chores of the sect, we can just deal with it as best we can. If we encounter a Nascent Soul monk or a fourth-level monster, just ask him for help." After all, the late-stage Jindan monks are more calm.
"I wonder when the two ancestors, Uncle Pei and Uncle Zhang, will return to the sect. They are the real mainstays."
The three senior brothers discussed with each other, quickly left the hall, and began to deal with the post-war reconstruction of Peiling Gate, which was a very complicated matter.
The elixir garden that was scorched black under the ravages of lightning needs to be renovated and restored. The elixir gardens have high and low grades, but each elixir garden is located on a branch.
There were also many sect buildings that were damaged in the battle. These buildings were all built with special means. Each building needed to have formation patterns carved on it according to its purpose and formed into different formations.
For example, the warehouse used to store some spiritual rice requires the power of formations to extend the storage period of the spiritual rice. The place where the talisman seals are made requires the spirit gathering array to condense spiritual power, and so on.
After the monks of Tianlei Sect were repelled, all this can be completed bit by bit with enough time. For a sect, it is not too difficult.
Regardless of whether Zhao Shoushou will handle the chores of Peiling Sect, the impact on the sect will be limited. After it was confirmed that the Yuanying monks were in charge, the low-level monks in the sect burst out with unprecedented strength, working hard without complaint, and focusing on resting in the sect.
losses in battle.
In fact, the most difficult thing was the repair of the protective formation. During the battle with Tianlei Sect, in order to block Fang Leizi's attack, at least thirty formation bases chose to self-destruct.
These formation bases are all genuine fourth-level formation bases, which are mainly refined from fourth-level spiritual materials. In the absence of Nascent Soul monks as the main force, many Jindan-stage monks can only refine them little by little through earth fire.
, purification.
While many low-level monks in Peiling Sect were busy restoring the sect's wounds, Zhao Shoushou was practicing in seclusion in a cave full of spiritual power.
What he told the golden elixir monks who came to ask for advice at the beginning that he was injured was not a baseless fabrication. The series of encounters in the Seven Sealed Burial Pagoda put a lot of pressure on him.
Because time is tight, he can only barely regain his combat effectiveness every time. The internal wounds of the body cannot be made up for and recovered in a short time. What Zhao Shoushou is doing now is to find out all the hidden injuries and recover to the peak bit by bit.
state.
In addition, the mana in the Nascent Soul is also consumed too much, so sufficient time is needed to run the Great Zhoutian and refine the purest spiritual power to replenish it one by one.
The most time-consuming and energy-consuming thing is definitely the transfer of practice techniques, even though "Pure Yuan Water Condensing Art" and "Condensing Water Art" are originally inherited from the same lineage.
However, the difference between the two is still very obvious. The operation of the former's Great Zhoutian is obviously more complicated than the latter's. The quality and quantity of the mana refined after each operation will also be significantly improved.
In addition, the magic power Zhao Shoushou accumulated bit by bit during his previous practice, including the Nascent Soul achieved in his Dantian, all need to be refined one by one.
Even if it cannot be completed in a short period of time, there must be a good start at the beginning of the conversion method. According to his speculation, if everything goes smoothly and there is no interference from outside objects, this process will take about twenty years.
Before completing this task, Zhao Shoushou's cultivation level cannot be improved. Only when his foundation is strong enough will he consider moving forward to the next goal.
From the moment he embarked on the path of spiritual practice, his goals were very clear, that is, to improve his cultivation, prolong his life, and go further on the road of spiritual practice.
After Zhao Shoushou began to practice in seclusion, Pei Yicai and Zhang Yisheng, the two ancestors of Peiling Sect, returned within two years.
The two monks each gained something from the Seven Burial Pagodas. Pei Yicai failed to achieve his goal of improving his cultivation, but instead obtained a magic weapon that was at the peak level of acquired spiritual treasures. He was only a hair away from being a real spiritual treasure.
Only monks in the spiritual transformation stage are qualified to use spiritual treasures. In the world of cultivation, most Nascent Soul monks are struggling to find an acquired spiritual treasure but cannot find it.
With this treasure in hand, Pei Yicai's combat effectiveness can be increased by at least 20%, and he can compete with some ordinary mid-stage Nascent Soul monks without falling behind.
Zhang Yisheng received a spiritual fruit that had dual effects of healing injuries and extending life. At this time, his injuries were healed and he could enjoy at least another hundred years of life.
His cultivation level is already at its peak in the middle stage of Nascent Soul. If he gets some opportunities within a hundred years, it is not impossible for him to continue to take a step forward.
Coupled with the fact that Zhao Shoushou is in seclusion and cannot be speculated by common sense, the strength of Peiling Sect can be said to have reached its peak state in recent years.
Now that the strength has been significantly improved and the decadence of the past has changed, the territories lost over the past thousands of years naturally need to be regained one by one.
Among them, the first one to bear the brunt must be Tianlei Sect. Even when Zhao Shoushou went into seclusion and did not take any action, the two Nascent Soul Stage monks from Peiling Sect joined forces and still achieved continuous victories.
In particular, one of the fiercest battles between two sects and four Nascent Soul Ancestors was the most dangerous. The target of the competition between the two sides was a high-quality secret realm specially used to cultivate spiritual beasts, which was cultivated by the Tianlei Sect 1,500 years ago.
Lingmen's hands took it away by force based on strength.
Sun Cheng also lost the opportunity to be promoted to a late-stage great monk because of the continuous battles. Three full years later, the competition between the two sects calmed down little by little. At this time, the Peiling Sect had already lost the territory it had lost.
Most of it was restored, and its reputation throughout Huang Ming was great.
