"My fellow Taoist guess is right. This crane totem is indeed related to the legendary ancient ferocious beast Suzaku."
Ancestor Liehe admitted honestly: "Fifty thousand years ago, I was still a casual cultivator. I failed to join the Tao. I knew that there was no hope for the holy path in this life, so I traveled around this land of the spiritual world. I can be considered free and at ease."
"But half a million years ago, an accidental experience allowed me to obtain a few magical feathers. These feathers were extremely tough. I thought they were the best materials for refining weapons, so I just stored them away."
"It wasn't until later that I discovered that there was an extremely ancient aura hidden in these feathers."
"I tried to understand, and I was surprised to find that there were some broken inheritance powers inside, and the source of the inheritance power was the ancient ferocious beast Suzaku!"
"Of course, these inherited powers are too little, and I can't restore the appearance of the ferocious beast Suzaku. I can only put the [meaning] in it into the crane's body, and show the power of the Suzaku through the crane's body."
"Since then, my lost hope for the Holy Path has been rekindled."
"Immediately established the Liehe Sect, recruited disciples, and selected disciples with good qualifications to practice the power of the totem."
"I believe fellow Taoists also know that the spread of the power of totems can absorb the power of faith of more monks to strengthen themselves."
"I know in my heart that as long as my disciples practice totems enough and long enough, the power of faith that comes from these feedbacks will eventually lead me to the road to sainthood!"
After finishing speaking, Taoist Liehe lowered his head and looked at the Qingfeng Sword on the table, and motioned to Li Qingyun to put it away.
But Li Qingyun didn't move, and just said with a smile: "It turns out that Taoist fellow Daoist founded the Liehe Sect for the power of the totem."
Unlike himself, he worked hard to create more totem power in order to make Qingshan Sect stronger.
Ancestor Liehe looked at the Qingfeng Sword on the table again, coughed slightly, and motioned for Li Qingyun to take it away.
But Li Qingyun chuckled and said: "Don't be anxious, fellow Taoist, can you show me those few feathers next?"
"Don't worry, I can make an oath, I just won't watch the robbery."
Ancestor Liehe rolled his eyes at Li Qingyun: "Isn't it what fellow Taoist robbed earlier?"
Li Qingyun was stunned, and took out a red, gem-like flake object from his arms, and asked doubtfully: "Is this what fellow Taoist is talking about?"
"Exactly."
Li Qingyun looked suspicious. The object in his hand, like a piece of ruby, didn't look like a feather at all.
Ancestor Liehe said with a smile: "It is said that the body of the ferocious beast Suzaku can cover the entire star field, so its feathers are at least as huge as an ancient star. Perhaps these are part of its feathers."
Li Qingyun scratched his head, he didn't believe the lies told by Patriarch Liehe.
"Fellow Taoist Liehe, are these all the secrets about the Crane Totem?"
Ancestor Liehe took a deep breath: "Yes."
Li Qingyun put away the Qingfeng Sword on the table: "Fellow Taoist, you can think again. In my storage space, there are many semi-saint level magic weapons, and even holy level magic weapons. As long as the Taoist friends are willing to provide information, we can exchange them."
.”
Ancestor Liehe looked solemn and asked: "May I ask your Excellency who you are..."
Halfway through the question, his eyes suddenly lit up: "I know! You are Li Qingyun!"
"I saw your portrait when Tianji Pavilion announced the list of geniuses."
Li Qingyun was stunned: "You can recognize this?"
"It's true." Ancestor Liehe said with a smile: "Tianxuan Continent is not far from Zhongzhou, so news from Zhongzhou can arrive quickly."
"Moreover, in the Genius event ten years ago, only two Geniuses died, and one of them was from our Tianxuan Continent, so we are extremely concerned about this Genius list."
Li Qingyun suddenly realized: "So, after finding out my identity, fellow Taoist disciples should believe that I am not that bad person, right?"
Ancestor Liehe was stunned for a moment, then seemed to think of something. He quickly took a few steps back, put away the storage bag at his waist, swept it into his arms, and pulled his clothes closer with force, looking at Li Qingyun with a wary face.
Li Qingyun: "..."
As for that?
After doing all this, Ancestor Liehe breathed a sigh of relief: "Zong Master Li, I know your name, so I can tell you my information, but please let me, Liehe Sect, go."
"The Liehe Sect is the foundation of my practice and the hope of becoming a saint. Please consider that I just lost my son and let it go!"
"Furthermore, the Liehe Sect has only been established for 500,000 years. It is still a young sect with no accumulation at all. There are also few resources in the sect's treasure house. It cannot withstand your robbery..."
The corners of Li Qingyun's eyes twitched. What did the Liehe ancestor think he was?
Ancestor Liehe threw out a map: "Sect Leader Li, the place where these feathers were found is at the place marked on the map. You can go and explore on your own, don't embarrass me anymore."
Li Qingyun looked at the expression on Patriarch Liehe's face as he was afraid that he would rob him. He sighed in his heart, knowing that he couldn't keep him today, so he took the map, gently cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, farewell!"
After that, he left the mountain gate of Liehe Sect and headed outside Tianxuan Continent.
And Xun Liang was also released from the cave heaven magic weapon.
Xun Liang was shrouded in the escaping light by Li Qingyun. He turned around and looked in the direction of Tianxuan Continent, "Master, are we going back?"
Li Qingyun smiled and said: "If we don't go back yet, let's go look for the gift that Ancestor Liehe gave me first."
"A gift?" Xun Liang's eyes widened and he asked in surprise.
I've killed his only son, but he can still give you a gift?
"Hahaha..." Li Qingyun smiled and said, "You will find it when you get there."
"Okay." Xun Liangsheng has a steady temperament and doesn't like to talk too much. He didn't ask any more questions here. He just followed Li Qingyun and looked at the scenery below.
…
…
The master and apprentice had been apart for many years, and it was rare for them to meet again. They were not in a hurry. They flew all the way for the past two days and went to visit the bustling and lively places. They were very happy.
Walking and stopping, it took a full seven or eight days before we arrived at a place called Panchao Continent.
"We're here." Li Qingyun looked at the mountain ranges in front of him and stretched, following the map given by Patriarch Liehe.
This is where he discovered the power of Suzaku.
In the center of the mountains ahead, there is a secret realm called the Divine Bird Realm.
But it is a pity that the power in the Divine Bird Realm is unstable, and only monks below the Taoist Realm are allowed to enter.
This is one of the reasons why Li Qingyun wanted to bring Xun Liang with him.
Xun Liang's cultivation level is now at the peak of the Dongzhen Realm, and has just reached the highest level of cultivation required to enter the secret realm.
Of course, high-level monks can also suppress their cultivation to enter, otherwise the ancestor of Liehe would not be able to enter and get the Vermillion Bird Feather in the end.
While the two of them were watching outside, Li Qingyun suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked towards the distant sky, feeling surprised and amused at the same time.
I didn't expect that I could meet familiar people in such a shabby place.
