304, The Villainous Elder in the Cultivation World (End) (1/2)
Wei Mingyan's current status in the world of cultivation is indeed extraordinary, especially when he guided a cultivator who had been stagnant in the out-of-body stage and saw the longevity bonus about to die and disappear, to successfully advance to the distraction stage. back.
At first, Gu Xingxue refused to believe that these people really came to seek enlightenment, and suspected that they had some conspiracy, such as pretending to be apprentices, but actually wanted to get rid of the devil Wei Mingyan.
Wei Mingyan smiled and dispelled her doubts.
"Don't look at the fact that these cultivators talk about justice for the common people on weekdays. When they encounter demonic cultivators, they shout, beat, kill and pursue them everywhere. But in fact, the most important thing in their hearts is always themselves."
"This road was originally meant to ascend the path of immortality, ascend to enlightenment, and kill demon cultivators because everyone wants to kill them. It is because they have been instilled with such ideas from the beginning. But if it is a demon like me, Cultivation can actually help them achieve enlightenment. As long as they are given a step to step down, these people will let go of everything they have done in the past.”
The seriousness in Gu Xingxue's eyebrows was slightly reduced, but he asked again: "But Tianye Sect refuses to recognize our identity."
Even though he took the initiative to reveal his identity as a demon cultivator, the handsome man still dressed in white and dressed upright smiled openly and said: "We, Wei Mingyan, will need approval from other sects when we do things."
"If they don't recognize it, then they don't recognize it. What does it have to do with our Xu Ling Sect?"
Gu Xingxue stared blankly at the man in front of him whom he respected as his master. All the entanglements he had been having during this period seemed to disappear.
She immediately sat cross-legged without hesitation and circulated her spiritual power.
Some handyman disciples came in to report that there were too many cultivators outside. They couldn't control themselves. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Gu Xingxue sitting cross-legged on the ground. They were stunned: "Sect Master, what is Senior Sister Gu?"
"It doesn't matter."
The demon cultivator in white clothes smiled and sat back on the chair: "It's just that he has an epiphany and is progressing."
"Go and tell those cultivators that the Xu Ling Sect does not look at age or bones, only the character of the mind. Take them to ask for the Heart Stone. Those who pass will be admitted to the Xu Ling Sect. The rest who want to stay can be slave disciples."
"yes."
The handyman disciples responded respectfully, and when they left, they couldn't help but glance at Gu Xingxue with envy, sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed and working on his spiritual power.
I heard that Senior Sister Gu has only been a cultivator for less than a year, and was brought from the mortal world to the cultivation world by the sect leader himself. At such a young age, she has already jumped directly to the distraction stage.
This is no longer a genius, but a ghost.
Even Yin Guangling, the disciple of the Tianye Sect's leader, the legendary genius in the world of cultivation, does not have such a fast cultivation speed.
What shocked them the most was that even though Gu Xingxue joined the Xu Ling Sect, he was not a demon cultivator, but an orthodox monk.
What does this mean?
A group of righteous casual cultivators went crazy. Even those cultivators from the sect who originally maintained their identity and were unwilling to come to the demon cultivator put aside their thoughts and hurried over.
This should be the first sect created by demonic cultivators in the history of the world of cultivation, but a group of righteous cultivators are crying and clamoring to join.
It's useless for them to cry out to join. If they can't pass the Heart-Questing Stone, the Xu Ling Sect will never accept them.
The Questioning Heart Stone was also bought in Tianbao Pavilion. It has always been known as the most expensive and most useless stone in the entire world of cultivation.
For many sects, the Heart-Questioning Stone is indeed worthless. As long as a human being has seven emotions and six desires, joy, anger, sorrow, and joy, as long as he has these, he will inevitably encounter many obstacles in the Questioning-the-Heart Stone.
The sect needs to develop. What they need more are disciples with good spiritual roots and high cultivation. If everyone has to pass the Heart-Questing Stone, then there will probably not be even a hundred disciples left in the sect out of tens of thousands.
What even the righteous sect didn't dare to do, a demonic cultivator sect did.
Xu Ling Sect became famous all over the world in just a few days.
There are many reasons for his fame, such as Wan Ling Tai's guidance for out-of-body cultivators to advance to the distraction stage on the spot, or the fact that the sect master is a demon cultivator who does not force everyone to cultivate demons together.
The most eye-catching one among them is Gu Xingxue, the only direct disciple of the Xu Ling Sect leader. He is less than twenty years old and is already in the stage of distraction.
And it was less than a year before she really started practicing.
And, Xu Lingzong spared no effort to show how heroic they are.
When many sects could not even buy a single Heart-Questioning Stone, Xu Ling Sect wholesaled a bunch of them and distributed them in various cities in the cultivation world and the mortal world. They bluntly said that as long as someone wants to use them, they can use them at any time, and they can worship them through the Heart-Questioning Stone. Xu Ling Zong.
In the past, major sects didn't need to ask the Heart Stone to recruit disciples because they wouldn't be able to recruit many disciples if they did so, but it was a lie to Ling Zonghao.
I bought so many Heart-Questioning Stones in one go and stuffed one in every city. Now that the entire world of cultivation and even the mortal world knows about the existence of the Xu Ling Sect, everyone is rushing to try. As long as they pass, they all fail. Arriving at Xu Ling Sect without hesitation.
Now in the entire world of cultivation, except for Tianye Sect, whose attitude is unclear, no other sect can say that Tianye Sect is a sect of demonic cultivation.
Being able to pass the Heart-Questioning Stone can prove that one's character is firm, but even they themselves cannot guarantee whether they can pass it.
Just when the Xu Ling Sect was in the limelight, a young man, wearing the uniform of a disciple of the Tianye Sect, went to the Xu Ling Sect and asked to see the sect leader Wei Mingyan.
It was Yin Guangling, the disciple of Tianye Sect’s leader.
In fact, he came reluctantly. After he had let Wei Mingyan go after him, Yin Guangling had complicated emotions in his heart towards this former Tianye Sect elder who had not had much contact with him before.
When Wei Mingyan revealed his identity and was smeared by the entire cultivation world, he was still unwilling to join in.
Not only because Wei Mingyan let them go, but more because of what he said when he jumped off the cliff.
Is the cultivation world really that dirty?
So dirty that the elders of the big sects who had a bright future would rather fall into the devil's way.
And then when Xu Ling Sect gradually became popular and no one dared to say anything bad about Wei Mingyan, Yin Guangling was even relieved.
In his heart, he always believed that Wei Mingyan was not what people said.
The sects gradually loosened their mouths, and even the disciples in Tianye Sect began to communicate with each other about Xu Ling Sect. Just when Yin Guangling thought that this matter would just pass, he was called by his master and given a task.
Let Wei Mingyan, the leader of Xu Ling Sect, merge the entire Xu Ling Sect into Tianye Sect as an elder of Tianye Sect.
Yin Guangling thought his master was going crazy.
It would have been fine if a group of people had chased him at the beginning, but now that Wei Mingyan has returned safely and has no intention of settling scores, wouldn't it be better for them to just stay at home and not have any trouble?
The leader of a sect and an elder of a sect, everyone knows how to choose.
He naturally didn't want to go, and even went to see the retreating Grand Elder for this matter.
But what Yin Guangling couldn't believe was that the Grand Elder had the same idea.
He even revealed that if Wei Mingyan refused to agree to the conditions proposed by Tianye Sect, he would personally strangle Wei Mingyan, the demon cultivator.
He has been in the Tribulation Period for a thousand years, and his cultivation and experience are definitely higher than Wei Mingyan, there is no doubt about that.
If the Grand Elder had said that he wanted to strangle him before, Yin Guangling would have thought that he could not tolerate demon cultivators, but the strangling he said was after Xu Ling Sect was merged into Tianye Sect.
How is this different from those who force small sects to merge into large sects, and turn from free and unfettered sect masters into shackled peak masters?
For the first time, Yin Guangling began to doubt whether the people he had respected and admired since he entered the sect were what he thought they were.
In the end, he came to Xu Ling Sect.
Looking at the prosperity of Xu Ling Sect, which was no less prosperous than Tianye Sect, and the tenacious sword intent in the eyes of Xu Ling Sect disciples who were practicing swordsmanship, Yin Guangling suddenly seemed to understand something.
Why did Tianye Sect want Xu Ling Sect to merge?
Because if it didn't merge, it wouldn't take long for the title of the first sect in the cultivation world to fall on Xu Ling Sect.
It was precisely because of this understanding that Yin Guangling felt even more chilled.
It was just a title, but they wanted to strangle Wei Mingyan in exchange for their own interests when they knew that Wei Mingyan had done nothing.
Logically speaking, a junior disciple like him was not qualified to see the leader of Xu Ling Sect, but Wei Mingyan still met him.
Yin Guangling explained everything clearly. After he finished speaking, he looked at Wei Mingyan, who had a calm expression as if he had expected it, and knelt down to persuade him: "The Grand Elder has been in the Tribulation Stage for a thousand years. Please don't act impulsively. Be patient for a while. There is a long time to come. It may not be impossible to..."
"Okay, okay."
Wei Mingyan yawned and interrupted him directly. He looked up and said, "You should practice well after you go back. Don't come out before you reach the Spirit Severing Stage."
"But..."
"I will make the decision on this matter. Xingxue, send him off."
"Yes."
Gu Xingxue agreed and stepped forward and said, "Please."
Yin Guangling didn't dare to persuade him anymore, so he had to go out depressed.
After he returned, he saw that his master frequently met with the elders and invited the leaders of the major sects to Tianye Sect. He knew in his heart that they wanted to conquer Xuling Sect.
Yin Guangling did not want to participate. He used the excuse that he had some insights and needed to retreat. He chose a mountain and put down a ban to start retreat.
However, when he came out, everything changed.
The leader of Tianye Sect fell in love with the former leader of Yuxue Sect. However, the former leader of Yuxue Sect was devoted to Taoism and had no interest in such things. The leader of Tianye Sect was unwilling to give up and gave her a spiritual powder that required her to have sex with others after drinking it. The two had a night.
After waking up, the leader of Yuxue Sect was angry and wanted to chase after her with a sword, but was suppressed because of her inferior cultivation. After that, she went to Tianye Sect in person to meet the Supreme Elder to seek justice, but was suppressed again.
After that, she found out that she was pregnant, resigned from the position of leader, and retreated after giving birth to the child.
That child is the original male protagonist, Yuxue Sect's junior master and Qingjia.
And this explosive news is just one of them.
All the major sects that participated in the discussion of the encirclement and suppression of Xuling Sect were exposed to reliable news, but they could not deny it. After all, there was real evidence in these news, such as Qingjia's life experience. Not to mention that the former leader of Yuxue Sect admitted it, just saying that the blood relationship between father and son can be verified by spiritual stones is enough to destroy the good reputation that the leader of Tianye Sect has painstakingly accumulated for thousands of years.
There is also the Supreme Elder. In the past, everyone only knew that the Supreme Elder had a high level of cultivation and practiced wholeheartedly on weekdays. No matter which sect people were from, they would have some respect for him.
But at this breaking news conference, his sheltering of his disciples, seizing other sects, spiritual mines, and killing people for treasures were also the most exposed.
Why the Supreme Elder has not been able to ascend to immortality for thousands of years is because he has done many bad things and can't survive the thunder.
After these things were spread, not long after, the Grand Elder went crazy and died.
Confusion is not enough to describe Yin Guangling's mood after coming out of retreat.
Those respected teachers who were once immortal seemed to have a second face. After peeling off this face, only the rotten smell remained.
After he confirmed the authenticity of the rumors one by one, he crushed the jade card with his own hands and left Tianye Sect.
There were many disciples who did this. Most of the disciples of Tianye Sect went to Xu Ling Sect, but Yin Guangling did not go. He had long been accustomed to being the eldest brother. Even if everyone left Xu Ling Sect, they still subconsciously took him as the leader. In the end, he founded a new sect.
Maybe there are not as many resources as before, and there may not be the envy of people wherever they go, but at least, there is a clear conscience.
Tianye Sect is in name only. No one went to attack the teachers who were once high and mighty, but they themselves could not accept them in the eyes of others.
In particular, they knew in their hearts that those were all true.
Yin Guangling worked hard to maintain his small sect. One day, a Foundation Establishment cultivator dressed in somewhat shabby clothes came to ask to join. He tested her bones and found that she was only at the Foundation Establishment stage after two years of cultivation. This only showed that she had not practiced hard at all.
The woman named Gu Yuling argued that she was just a casual cultivator and had no spiritual stones or resources. It was already very impressive that she could practice to the Foundation Establishment stage.
Yin Guangling politely asked her to leave.
Later, it was heard that she was a disciple who had defected from the Yuxue Sect. After defecting from the sect, she somehow got together with the junior master of the Yuxue Sect. Later, when Qingjia's identity was exposed and the spiritual powder was also exposed, he realized that he had done the same thing with Gu Yuling because he was drugged.
If it was before, he could still comfort her because Gu Yuling really liked him, but when Qingjia knew his life experience, he felt a strong disgust for drugging her.
He gave all the spirit stones on him to Gu Yuling, and returned to Yuxue Sect to practice in seclusion like his biological mother.
As for why Gu Yuling had so many spirit stones but was still so miserable, it was unknown.
He had always been paying attention to Xu Ling Sect, knowing that Xu Ling Sect was becoming more and more powerful, and gradually became the first sect in the world of cultivation.
Gu Xingxue, the disciple of the sect master, had also been working hard. In ten years, she actually cultivated to the Mahayana stage.
Then, something unbelievable happened.
Gu Xingxue challenged her master, Wei Mingyan.
Wei Mingyan lost.
Gu Xingxue's talent was indeed unstoppable.
When her sword was about to pierce the chest of the man who was still calm even when spitting blood, the sword stopped.
People just thought she was just competing with her master.
No one knew that Gu Xingxue had been practicing hard for ten years just to wait for this day.
But now, she could do it, but she was reluctant to give up.
The man in front of her was both a teacher and a friend to her.
He once ruined her life, but also gave her a more brilliant life.
Wei Mingyan coughed a few times, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with a smile, and watched the woman in front of him slowly retract the sword.
"Are you really giving up?" he asked.
Gu Xingxue pursed her lips, "Yes."
Wei Mingyan smiled and shook his head: "Then next time, you won't have a chance."
The dark clouds in the sky moved, and there was a faint flash of lightning.
He was going to pass the calamity.
Gu Xingxue was sent out by Wei Mingyan with spiritual power.
Afterwards, this man who gave many legendary history to future generations ascended on the spot in front of many people.
***
Gu Xingxue inherited the Xu Ling Sect, but she quickly selected a disciple to become the sect master.
Her cultivation was stuck in the Mahayana period and she had not made any moves, so she chose to travel the world with Yan Guilai.
The world of cultivation, the world of mortals, slaying demons and eliminating monsters, sometimes killing a bad guy, sometimes saving a good guy.
A thousand years later, the two ascended together.
When she arrived at the fairyland and couldn't find Wei Mingyan who had clearly ascended to heaven, she finally understood why he said that she had no chance.
[Ding! Mission completed, please leave the world and return to the flesh. ]

A snowy mountain stood quietly under the heavy snow.
In the ice coffin in the secret room under the snowy mountain, a man wearing feather clothes and a jade coffin on his head, who looked lifelike even after lying for a thousand years, opened his eyes.
Pushing open the ice coffin, he looked around.
"Tsk, it's a bit cold."
