Chapter 1093 Nothing

Mrs. Liang and Qi Xinyuan both sensed the death of the old demon Red Blood. Realizing that something was wrong, the two immediately panicked and abandoned the sect's lineage to escape.

Although the cultivation of the old ancestors Bai and Xuan Gu was stronger than the two demon souls, they were unable to kill the demon souls and could only let the two soul cultivators escape successfully.

The demon cultivators ran away, and their disciples and grandchildren immediately faced a disaster and were killed by the righteous cultivators.

The resources of the Forget-Your-Sea Spiritual Vein were also divided up by the righteous sects.

Since the battle between immortals and demons, the Yuanyang Realm has finally cleared the demon cultivator lineage for the first time in tens of thousands of years.

Shortly after the end of the war to eliminate demons, Zhang Zhixuan and Qingchan took the cultivators of Nan Yazhou back to the sect for repair.

In this battle, the righteous cultivators won a great victory. Not only did they kill the old demon Red Blood, but they also eliminated more than 460 demon Yuanyings and countless golden elixir purple palaces. Seventeen great demon cultivators were bullied by the Yuanshen cultivators and were killed cleanly.

The losses of the major sects were also relatively light, with more than twenty Yuanying cultivators killed in the battle. However, the death of Yang Shenggong in Xiyaozhou caused heavy losses to the cultivators in this state.

The war to destroy demons was a great victory. Not only did all the demon cultivators die, but also thirteen demon Yuanshen magic tools were seized. However, the origin of these demon Yuanshen magic tools is unknown. Except for Lu Xuanyun who took one for research and prepared to refine and restore the seventh-level materials, the rest were completely destroyed by the righteous cultivators.

It takes a lot of time to refine and restore the seventh-level materials with the demon Yuanshen magic tools, and it requires a seventh-level refiner to support.

Now there is only one seventh-level refiner, Lu Xuanyun, in the Yuanyang Realm, and these demon Yuanshen magic tools are only useful to him.

Yuanshen cultivators are the last step before becoming immortals. Those who can refine Yuanshen want to race against time and use every second for cultivation.

Most of the soul cultivators, for various reasons, have far less lifespan. Unless they are people like Lu Xuanyun who have ruined their path, other souls simply don't have time to waste on such things.

After rewarding and punishing, Zhang Zhixuan and Qingchan were preparing to retreat when they suddenly noticed a slight movement between heaven and earth.

Zhang Zhixuan showed some joy and said, "It seems that another cultivator has broken through the bottleneck of the soul."

"It must be Zheng Yanping from the Medicine King Sect. Some time ago, Patriarch Bai spent a lot of energy and used the inner elixir of the demon saint to refine a furnace of the seventh-level lower-grade elixir for him to help break through the soul. With the help of the elixir, Zheng Yanping broke through the soul for the third time, so there should be a certain chance of success."

Zhang Zhixuan sighed, "At most, it's only two or three points. When a cultivator breaks through the soul, it is easier to succeed if he has the will to die. There are more than a dozen souls in the major sects of the righteous way, including you and me. Seven people have successfully broken through once, four people have successfully broken through the second time, only one person has successfully broken through the soul three times, and only one person has broken through the soul for the fourth time.

As the life span of cultivators grows, they often have the fear of death. If their Taoism is not firm, they will fail. Only by overcoming the fear of death and breaking through the bottleneck can they achieve twice the result with half the effort and succeed more easily."

Qingchan took Zhang Zhixuan's hand and smiled softly, "Let's see if Zheng Daoyou will succeed?"

Patriarch Bai protected Qingchan in the past, so Zhang Zhixuan and his wife owed a favor to the Medicine King Sect. Now that Zheng Yanping has caused the strange phenomenon, Ziyang Sect will naturally go to repay a little favor.

Zheng Yanping does not have a treasure like Huiyang Yanshou Pill in his hand, so naturally there will be no conflict of interest with most Yuanshen cultivators.

The two demon saints of the Southern Wilderness, Jinniu and Baixiang, have a deep hatred with Yaowang Sect. Before besieging and killing the Red Blood Demon, the two tribes also signed a blood oath contract not to invade each other. Zheng Yanping broke through, and there was almost no one who blocked his way.

Zhang Zhixuan and his wife came together and sat opposite each other in the cave of Bai Laozu. Seeing that the strange phenomenon of refining the Yuanshen was getting bigger and bigger, Bai Laozu's face showed a bit of sadness and said: "After all, the heart of Tao is not strong, and it is still empty in the end."

As Bai Laozu expected, the strange phenomenon slowly dissipated after a while.

Zhang Zhixuan was speechless, not knowing how to comfort Bai Laozu.

Zheng Yanping has been practicing Taoism for three thousand years, almost like Bai Laozu's shadow, accompanying him to support the Taoism for two thousand years. When this person entered the Dao, he was indeed a genius. He became a great cultivator before he was 900 years old. In the eyes of most cultivators, Zheng Yanping had a high chance of refining the Yuanshen.

Unfortunately, when he broke through the Yuanshen, Zheng Yanping's path suddenly became unsmooth.

He failed to break through the bottleneck of the Yuanshen twice by chance.

Especially the failure of the second breakthrough broke his Dao heart, and it took more than a thousand years before he once again mustered up the remaining courage and attacked the Yuanshen realm again, but unfortunately he still failed.

Zheng Yanping's life span was already short, and the failure to break through the Yuanshen cultivator also greatly damaged his vitality. I am afraid that he can only persist for more than ten years at most, and then he will die.

Back then, Zheng Yanping helped Zhang Zhixuan by refining the Nine Yang Creation Pill. This time, he came to the Yaowang Sect, and he had to meet this old friend before Zheng Yanping passed away.

Zheng Yanping failed to break through, and the three of them were a little sad.

Especially for the old ancestor Bai, he could no longer suppress the grief in his heart, tears burst out of his eyes, and wet his clothes. At this time, he did not look like a Yuanshen cultivator who was invincible in the world, but rather like a miserable person who lost his relatives.

For Zheng Yanping, the old ancestor Bai came out of retreat early from his breakthrough, spent countless efforts, and spent decades to refine the seventh-level elixir for him.

In the end, all the efforts were in vain.

Zheng Yanping was not only his junior, but also one of the few close people he had in Yaowang Sect.

Ancestor Bai has cultivated his soul for more than two thousand years and has not come into contact with low-level cultivators for many years. Even some newly promoted Yuanying of Yaowang Sect have barely seen Ancestor Bai a few times and have no feelings for him at all.

Zheng Yanping is different. He is the right-hand man of Ancestor Bai and one of the only two top-level Yuanying of Yaowang Sect. He has fought side by side with Ancestor Bai countless times, led the sect's cultivators to resist the army of demon saints, and once followed behind Ancestor Bai to repel the invasion of the demon's soul.

The situation in Yanhuozhou is difficult. The Yaowang Sect has been able to persist in these years, not only relying on Ancestor Bai, but also Zheng Yanping and Yang Wuji, the two top-level Yuanying, who have played a very critical role.

The relationship between them is like that between Liu Lingjun, Han Yan and Zhang Zhixuan and Qingchan. Although they are not blood relatives, after thousands of years of getting along, their feelings are closer than those of close relatives.

After the failure of the breakthrough, seeing that his life span was running out, Zheng Yanping became more open-minded. He recalled the past many years with Bai Laozu, gave up the position of the great elder, left his magic weapon to the sect, and then chose to write books and record his lifelong experience in the sect's jade slips.

In his spare time, he personally came forward to preach to low-level cultivators, and supported himself for more than 20 years. Before the fusion of the two realms, he sat in the cave.

"The world is unpredictable. If Han Yan and Ling Jun sat in front of us one day, we don't know how painful it would be?"

"Have faith in them, and have faith in us."
