Primordial Qi

Chapter 146 Convocation

"A sixth-level Earth Jade Scorpion. How could this thing appear here?"

"It seems to have been dormant underground until Peak Master Wanqiu left."

Xiao Tian and Lin Xiu retreated quickly. This sixth-order monster was beyond their ability to deal with. It was impossible to kill the enemy by crossing levels without paying a huge price.

"It has not been possessed, but it has great hatred towards us. It must be because of the deeds of those ancient residual souls. Let's think of a way to deal with it."

Gu Chenyu felt that something was wrong with the monster. Not only was it not possessed by another body, its soul was also surprisingly powerful. Seeing that the situation was not good, Gu Chenyu wanted to run away. The monster in the celestial realm was too terrifying.

When Gu Chenyu was hesitating, the monster was already ready to attack.

A flash of green lightning flashed across the sky, and a terrifying sword pierced through the head of the Earth Jade Scorpion. This was Gu Qingxue's Frost Sword. She actually looked back at herself and used her terrifying swordsmanship to seriously injure the monster.

The Earth Jade Scorpion's soul had been pierced and it had suffered great damage, but they could still deal with a severely injured sixth-level monster by joining forces.

"His soul was shattered into pieces, and his head was pierced, but he was still alive. His vitality is really strong."

Gu Chenyu couldn't help but sigh at how strong the vitality of the immortal creatures was. It was only with the help of the three of them and the Soul-Destroying Needle that they successfully killed the sixth-rank monster.

Lin Xiu ended its life with a Great Wilderness Sunset Finger. The monster was full of treasures, but unfortunately Lin Xiu cut off half of its body, and the other half was crushed into powder by his martial arts.

"Go and see if there are any other inner elixirs. The inner elixir of a sixth-level monster should be valuable enough." Gu Chenyu quickly decomposed it, and the monster's inner elixir appeared in its body as expected.

"The demon pills are not valuable. At most, they can be used for cultivation. The beast cores are the most valuable. The raw materials of one of the pills are these beast cores."

Xiao Tian took out a palm-sized beast core from the head. This was the crystallization of the sixth-level monster's spiritual cultivation, and was also one of the raw materials for refining pills similar to the Heavenly Five Elements Pill. The pill refined from the monster's soul core was called the Heavenly Demon Five Elements Pill. Its effect was much worse than that of the Heavenly Five Elements Pill, but its function was exactly the same, and it had the effect of replenishing spiritual roots.

"The full name of this beast core should be the demon beast soul core. Some fifth-level demon beasts can also give birth to this thing. Of course, at most, it is a sixth-level demon beast. A sixth-level soul core is precious and is extremely rare in Qingming Sect."

Several people quickly disassembled the sixth-level monster and allocated the available resources reasonably under Xiao Tian's allocation. He said, "I am an alchemist. I only need the soul core of the monster and the tail. These are good things that can be refined into pills."

Gu Chenyu hesitated in his heart. He felt sorry for Xiao Tian's act of picking up a treasure. Gu Qingxue had killed dozens of level 6 monsters along the way, and he had too many monster pills and soul cores in his storage bag...

"Second brother, this Earth Jade Scorpion is an earth attribute monster. I don't have any except water attribute monsters here, but I can make up for the others."

Gu Chenyu took out three soul cores of different attributes and stared at them for a while in front of Xiao Tian. He really didn't expect that Gu Chenyu had so many.

"Brother, you..."

"Don't worry, take it. I have all the soul cores of the monsters that Peak Master Wanqiu killed along the way."

Xiao Tian was filled with envy. It was good to have a powerful backer so that he could get the resources for cultivation quickly.

"Then I'll write it to you, big brother." Xiao Tian didn't hesitate and generously took the soul core given by Gu Chenyu.

"Haha, this is what a good brother is."

Gu Chenyu smiled and took out a lot of inner elixirs for Xiao Tian and Lin Xiu. These inner elixirs contained a large amount of spiritual power. The efficiency of refining them would double, skipping most of the complicated screening process. It only took a moment to refine them to improve their strength.

The remaining disciples had more than just envy in their eyes. Gu Chenyu did not hesitate to give one to each of them, which made them stop one after another. In the end, they accepted the inner elixir.

"You all are willing to risk your own lives and go deep into the secret realm with us to find the powerful people of the sect, so you deserve these rewards. Work hard to improve your cultivation, and we will meet at the top in the future." Gu Chenyu did not let the few people feel psychological pressure. They had good hearts. Many Venerable Realm masters died along the way, so they were considered powerful.

"Thank you, senior brother." Several people said with a fist salute.

Gu Chenyu was stunned for a moment. Is his senior brother Wan Qiufeng so famous?

"Let's go, follow them, maybe the battle is over now."

A few streaks of light flew by, and as expected, the battle there had ended. Several celestial monks had been injured. They protected several frightened disciples of the Venerable, and only relaxed after the battle was over. They were all a little tired at the moment.

Luo Fusheng's expression was a bit complicated. After all, he and Gu Qingxue had conflicts before. Now that he was rescued by Gu Qingxue, he naturally felt a little uncomfortable. However, after all, he had lived for so many years and was not so petty. He clasped his fists towards Gu Qingxue and said, "Thank you, Master Wanqiu, for your help."

Gu Qingxue nodded. They were all from the same sect, and he had been injured while protecting these disciples, so he did have a sense of responsibility.

"Can you contact the sect leader? My voice-transmitting jade pendant seems to be broken." Gu Qingxue asked.

Several celestial beings shook their heads. Their jade pendants could not contact the sect leader, as if they were blocked by something.

"Maybe they have gone to a deeper place, so it's normal that we can't contact them." Gu Qingxue said.

Gu Chenyu rushed here with others. He was relieved to see that Gu Qingxue was not injured. Hearing that they were discussing the sound transmission jade pendant, Gu Chenyu thought about it and it seemed that Lin Yuanya had given him a sound transmission jade pendant.

"I seem to have a jade pendant for transmitting sound here. Let me see if I can contact the sect master." Gu Chenyu said. He took out the jade pendant and transmitted sound into it, and soon received a reply.

"The sect master is on his way, let's go and protect the other disciples first."

Gu Chenyu took out the content of the sound transmission and listened to it again for everyone. Lin Xiu's eyes were complicated. He didn't even have a sound transmission jade pendant of this level. He didn't know what the ancestor liked about Gu Chenyu.

"Then we will follow the sect leader's orders and go together to protect those disciples. These monsters are too weird, they don't look like sixth-level monsters." Luo Fusheng said. He felt the weirdness of these monsters, their intelligence seemed to be too high.

"I don't know if Master Luo Feng has heard of the ancient cultivators. These monsters should have been possessed by some ancient cultivators with low cultivation levels, and it has been a long time. They should have been dormant before and only came out to cause trouble during this period."

Xiao Tian explained about the residual soul of the ancient cultivator, which made several celestial beings look solemn. Things of this level were not something they could figure out.

"I see. This is too bizarre. It looks like only the Sect Master can resolve these troubles."

Dozens of people were flying in the air on a flying magic weapon, but were soon forced to run on the ground by the restrictions in the air. These places were full of strange restrictions and many space cracks. If you were not careful, you would be crushed into powder.

"Where are those disciples? We should hurry over there."

At this moment, they all got down to the ground and ran wildly. Naturally, their speed was not as fast as flying. They walked and flew all the way, and it took them several days to find those disciples.

Seeing the arrival of the sect's celestial beings, the disciples of Qingming Sect finally breathed a sigh of relief. Xiao Tian and his companions had been away for half a month, and these disciples had been living in fear all day long. They even found it difficult to deal with fifth-order monsters, let alone those ancient cultivators.

"That's great, it's a strong man from the sect, we are saved." Some people cheered, and their tense hearts were finally able to relax for a while.

When Li Yue'e saw Gu Qingxue coming, she couldn't help but rush over to her, tears streaming down her face. She didn't even realize that she was already taller than the young Gu Qingxue, and for a moment she couldn't tell who was the master and who was the apprentice.

Gu Qingxue was naturally annoyed with her body. Gu Chenyu had fed her no idea how many time fruits she had in the Lingmu Secret Realm. Her luck was also bad, and the power of time turned her body back to her childhood. Her enchanting body became like that of a child. The difference was too big.

"Don't worry, everything will be fine once we are here. It's time to fight back." Gu Qingxue touched Li Yue'e's head and coaxed her for a while.

He Nanxiang walked out of the crowd. She looked at Gu Chenyu, Xiao Tian, and Lin Xiu, feeling a little emotional. These three were truly the top talents of the Qingming Sect, and their request for help was successful.

"Gather the rest of the disciples and ensure their personal safety first."
