But...being strong is a temporary thing, but being handsome is a lifelong thing. Therefore, there are many players who would rather give up their combat effectiveness and go to Yuxu. However, there is also a large number of players like Liu Yuan who choose not to join a sect, but to gather the strengths of all schools and create their own power. He would definitely go look for the spirit stone mine that he later occupied, but let's put it aside for now. In the cave, Liu Yuan had completed his task and taught Gu Chang some basic formulas for him to memorize by himself. Gu Chang had a bitter face and said "oh" reluctantly like a primary school student who was assigned a recitation task, then ran to the side to concentrate on studying, allowing Liu Yuan to satisfy his desire to be a teacher and feel secretly happy. Liu Yuan turned his gaze back and said, "Senior Ding." Ding Huan had used up all his energy from the past few days, and his eyes were tired. He could see that Liu Yuan was in trouble, but he smiled kindly and said, "Young friend, please tell me what you have. As long as I can help, I will do my best." Anyway, his time is almost up, so it would be a good thing for him to retain some good qualities. Besides, in his eyes, Liu Yuan's future is limitless. Although Ding Huan taught Liu Yuan all he had learned in his life, the two of them still addressed each other as fellow Taoist. This was Ding Huan's request. When Liu Yuan wanted to symbolically change his address, Ding Huan shook his head and said, "With your talent, your cultivation will surpass mine sooner or later. I am not qualified to be your teacher. For the time being, I will take advantage of you and be your senior." Liu Yuan cleared his throat and recounted everything that happened in Shuiyuewu. Of course, he added some artistic processing and emphasized that he was trying to eliminate the undercover agents of the Demon Cult.
"So that's how it is..." Ding Huan sat in silence and pondered for a while, then said, "But the forbidden art of reincarnation is not something that he, who is at the Nascent Soul stage, can touch, and summoning spirits is even more absurd. The entrance to Fengdu Realm has long been sealed, and I only heard a few rumors from my predecessors at that time. The Lord of the Ghost Realm had returned to the path of reincarnation in response to the calamity at some point, and the entire Ghost Realm had disappeared long ago. Once a soul enters, it cannot leave, and can only return to heaven and earth and be reborn again." Liu Yuan narrowed his eyes: "In other words, blood sacrifice to summon the soul is impossible?" Ding Huan nodded: "That's right. As for what he wants to do, I don't know. I could have guessed it, but now I am running out of energy. Alas, my friend is so young, but he has the heart to fight against demons and defend the way of Taoism, but I..." Liu Yuan hurriedly said: "Senior has helped me a lot." Even so, Ding Huan still felt guilty, and he actually passed most of his remaining spiritual power to Liu Yuan. His life span was shortened again, and he only had one day left. In the blink of an eye, he was about to break through to the foundation-building stage from the ninth stage of Qi training. Liu Yuan did not say goodbye to Ding Huan. He first checked Gu Chang's homework and confirmed that he had successfully drawn in Qi. He then asked Gu Chang to come up and chat with Ding Huan. This senior, who had been single for who knows how many years, seemed to have a special fondness for children. It was a wish come true for him to have his inheritance at the end of his life. Liu Yuan sat in the cave silently facing the old man who was on his last legs, listening to Ding Huan slowly say that the only thing he wanted in his life was freedom, but he used his body as a cage to lock up a demon that was harming the human world for hundreds of years. Although he was trapped in the cave for his entire life and could not move, he felt very free in his heart. A day later, Ding Huan, who was still chattering with Liu Yuan, sensed his fate and suddenly laughed out loud: "As I wish for benevolence, I will get it. Hahahahahaha...so free!" Golden light spread all over his body, and cracks appeared on his body. The demon behind him made a final roar and struggle, but he could no longer resist. In an instant, along with Ding Huan's decayed body, it shattered and turned into dust all over the sky. The eight-armed demon, who later became the vanguard of the invasion of the demon world and one of the strongest, died here quietly and heroically. Because of Liu Yuan's arrow, the entire game plot was turned upside down from that moment on. Chapter 57 My fate is determined by myself, not by God "The necromancy ritual is fake, so what exactly does Zou Wenrui want to do?" Liu Yuan thought about this problem on the way and muttered to himself: "If I could just kill him, I wouldn't have to go through so much trouble. Unfortunately... there are too many people involved. If Shuiyuewu is in complete chaos because of this, it will give the Demon Cult's undercover a great opportunity to do something." Liu Yuan would also think that if he had asked Vibhana at that time, he might not have to guess it himself now... But at a critical moment of life and death, how could he have the mood to care about this? "It doesn't matter. Now that Vihuan Luo is gone, I can fool the undercover agent of the Demon Cult. Humph... I am afraid of Vihuan Luo, but I have never been afraid of this group of people in the Demon Cult. As long as I can get rid of him, I can expose Zou Wenrui in public and beat him until he gets Alzheimer's disease." Liu Yuan was now ready to attack the elder, wanting only to beat that old face until it was deformed. But before that, of course, we still have to deal with the undercover agent of the evil cult.
"There's no need to disguise this time. The Demon Cult doesn't recognize people by appearance anyway. As long as the undercovers can trust each other, they can just assume they know each other's identities." Liu Yuan had intended to use Jingyueyu as a backup, but in the end it was just a useless move in front of Vihara, and he even received strange comments like "very cute". "Forget it, a good man doesn't fight with a woman. She's cute, so be it." Liu Yuan smiled awkwardly, looking at the outline of Shuiyuewu below. "The time is just right. Let's go find Xue Wei first... He should be in the ordinary disciple room on the other side." When they came back, Liu Yuan and Ning Xiangrong flew on swords, while Ma Shu rented a mount and brought Xue Wei back with him. However, Xue Wei was even more miserable than Ma Shu. As a tool, he was just placed in Shuiyuewu as a decoration. Although Liu Yuan never asked, it was Shuiyuewu who first discovered the secret of Chiyu Villa, and it was also Shuiyuewu who planned the plan against the secret treasure of Xuanwu in Chiyu Villa. However, the undercover agent of the Demon Cult hidden in Shuiyuewu discovered it and got involved, hoping to reap the benefits. No one in Shuiyuewu is a good person. The reason Ning Xiangrong was raised was purely because Ning Tingshan, who was obsessed with his daughter, protected her so well. As for Liu Yuan, what he thought was that Rongrong was truly a person who was untainted by the mud. As for Xue Wei, he was a tool used by Chiyu Villa as a pretext and destined to be controlled. After being used by Shuiyuewu, he was still being used by the Demon Cult. It can be said that his life was very miserable. Liu Yuan gave him an opportunity to break free, and he seized it and hid it very well... He did not let down his experience and name that were quite like a protagonist. But unfortunately, he has to be used by Liu again. - "I have already cultivated the 'Thunderbolt Technique' to the sixth minor realm. What the senior said is indeed true. The early stage of practicing this technique will achieve twice the result with half the effort. Moreover, the lightning force replaces the spiritual force and flows through the meridians. Because the human body naturally contains the power of lightning, it is the least likely to arouse suspicion. It is really wonderful!" A hint of warmth flashed through Xue Wei's heart. He could finally go back and see his childhood sweetheart Yun'er instead of being a so-called friendly disciple here for show. "In order to practice, I have activated the Thunder Pool in the Jiuyuan Mountains many times. The thunder power cleanses my body and has a first-class effect on repairing my Dantian. It is extraordinary and magical. However... although I can use bad luck as an excuse, I can't hold on for long. I need more different kinds of thunder power!" Xue Wei was completely convinced by Liu Yuan at this moment. This technique was so magical that it fascinated him! Although it was very painful at the beginning and he could hardly bear it, but gradually when he thought about the person he loved and the unfinished business, his heart was filled with strength and he could even ignore the pain! Sometimes, even if I was struck by lightning and my whole body was twitching, my heart was still filled with joy! Xue Wei believed that he must have fallen in love with the feeling of rapidly increasing power! What a pleasant thing it is to have the power to control your own destiny! "It's still early now. I can practice again and experience the pleasure of being washed by the huge thunder force and gaining strength. Ma Shu said he would take me to change my destiny. He must be the man from the demon sect that the senior mentioned... Humph, how could he know that my destiny had already been changed by the senior!" Xue Wei clenched his fists, stared out the window with a determined look, and gritted his teeth and said, "Damn Shuiyuewu, I will definitely be able to fight for my freedom back!" "I am very pleased that you have such a positive attitude." The young man's faint voice suddenly sounded, but it was like thunder in Xue Wei's ears. "senior!" Xue Wei turned around quickly and saw Liu Yuan standing silently in the middle of the room. He exuded a majestic and profound aura, calm and unfathomable. Liu Yuan smiled calmly and stood with his hands behind his back: "Well, Xue Wei, today is your chance to truly change your destiny." Xue Wei is now also a serious cultivator. If he still had a little doubt before, now he has 120 percent trust and admiration for him. When he came across him in a meditation posture, he jumped off the bed and prostrated himself in front of him. "Thank you for your great kindness, senior! I will never forget it in my life!" Xue Yuan's face was full of excitement and he kowtowed to Liu Yuan repeatedly. This gave classmate Liu a fright.
Anyone who comes here will be shocked... When he accepted Gu Chang as his apprentice, he kowtowed three times, which was considered the authentic ceremony of becoming a disciple, but Xue Wei's attitude was completely like that of an ancestor. But it is completely understandable. After all, his life was already bleak. His Dantian was destroyed and he was used as a tool by others. Those who used him did not take it seriously, while those who were targeted also despised him for being a waste. Until Liu Yuan's arrival, a new chapter in his life was opened. It was no exaggeration to say that he had second parents. "Hey... you get up first. You are a man of seven feet tall, with golden knees. How can you kneel down so easily? I am just your destined person whom you met by chance. What you should really think about is your parents who have never given up on you and care about you. Do you understand?" Liu Yuan opened his mouth and drank a bowl of chicken soup, it was free anyway. "Besides, what is the purpose of your cultivation? It is to make yourself stand up straight! Not to kneel down like you are doing now!" Xue Wei was stunned for a moment, then his mind cleared up in an instant, and he seemed to separate eight pieces of his yang bones, pour out half a bucket of ice water, and quickly stood up and said: "Senior is right! Xue Wei understands! From today on, I, Xue Wei, swear that I will never kneel to others again in this life, whether it is my knees or my heart!" Liu Yuan nodded with satisfaction, and he was very quick to understand. He then asked, "Ma Shu came to see you, right?" Xue Wei nodded: "Senior, you are a god. Ma Shu came to me and asked me to go to Yingyue Pond at twilight hour today, tempting me that he could change my fate." He smiled coldly and said disdainfully: "My fate is in my own hands, why should I ask him to change it!" Liu Yuan's mouth twitched, thinking to himself, wasn't that how you were deceived back then? Now you're so brave. Chapter 58: Xue Wei, the attack was successful! But after all, in the game plot, Xue Wei was not fooled by Liu Yuan at that time... No, he did not receive guidance from a mentor like Liu Yuan. I wouldn't have the awareness I have now, and I would be controlled by the evil cult. Then, as a small monster, I was beaten up countless times by players. So thanks to Liu Yuan, this kid was put back on the right track and escaped his tragic fate. "The person Ma Shu wants to take you to meet is the second undercover agent of the Demon Cult in Shuiyuewu, and the one who secretly directs Ma Shu." Liu Yuan thought for a moment, and said in a deep voice with his hands behind his back, "By then... there may be two situations." Xue Wei seemed to be listening attentively and nodded: "Which two? How should I deal with them? It's all up to you, senior." Liu Yuan said: "The first one is that the cultivation level of the demon sect undercover is far beyond imagination. I have nothing to hide, so I will tell you directly. I am seriously injured and have not recovered yet. I only have the spiritual power of the peak of the Nascent Soul, but my real strength is less than 50%. If he is above the fifth stage of the Nascent Soul, my chances of winning are relatively small." Although he said so, Xue Wei's eyes were filled with shock when he heard it. Being at the peak of Nascent Soul stage and half a step away from becoming a God, in the world of immortal cultivation, he was already in the absolute upper-middle class. Most sects would treat him as a guest of honor and give him some respect. He was also qualified to be called a True Man or a True Lord. For the lower-level small sects, they are like ancestors and it is not excessive to worship them. Xue Wei's eyes sparkled, and he said without hesitation: "But Senior doesn't look worried, so he must have a way to deal with it calmly!" Liu Yuan nodded: "This first situation may seem dangerous, but it is actually my first choice. At this time, it will be useless even if you take action, so when the time comes, you just have to act according to the circumstances. Just remember not to panic. I will make all the arrangements." Xue Wei nodded repeatedly and said yes, scratched his head and said: "Then, then wouldn't it be a waste of your training? I can't help you, I..." Liu Yuan thought to himself, you don’t understand the pleasure of being an old grandfather fooling people. The feeling of carving out a protagonist template and observing secretly is simply a pleasure. He waved his hand and said calmly and mysteriously: "You don't understand. That's when you will be asked to make a real contribution to the cause of exorcism. I want you to infiltrate the Demon Cult and obtain intelligence." Xue Wei's pupils shrank: "This, this..." Liu Yuan said calmly: "Why, are you scared?"
Xue Wei was very excited: "No... This is really great! I didn't expect that Senior would entrust me with such an important task. I really can't express how excited I am!" Liu Yuan: “???” Liu Yuan had a lot of question marks in his mind and glanced at Xue Shuishui. "Little friend, you are very interesting. I always feel like I have dug out some extraordinary person." "Ahem..." Liu Yuan continued, "It's great that you're thinking this way. Let me talk about the second situation." Xue Wei sat up straight again and listened attentively. Liu Yuan said: "The second situation is that the undercover's combat power is lower than mine. In this case, there is no need to be afraid of anything. As long as you get my signal, you will capture Ma Shu and kill him immediately. I will also take action at the same time. However, this is actually dangerous." Xue Wei's expression was firm: "I will do my best to live up to the kindness of the seniors in cultivating me and kill all the people of the Demon Cult." Liu Yuan twitched his lips and said, "No." Xue Wei looked puzzled. Liu Yuan's eyes were stern. "There are many people in the Demon Sect who were coerced like you were before and had no choice but to help the Demon Sect. Do you understand? Although these people cannot be called innocent, they are not unforgivable and deserve death. In the future, you must learn to distinguish between the good and evil of these people, and distinguish between the knife and the person who wields the knife." Xue Wei suddenly realized and bowed his hands in thanks: "Thank you for your guidance, otherwise I would have gone too far and might have committed murder and caused disaster in the future." He admired Liu Yuan very much and felt that he had met a wise mentor in life. But in fact, Liu Yuan was thinking of Ding Huan. Most of these words were learned from the day and night of discussion with Ding Huan. Of course, Tao does not refer to the way of cultivating immortality, but the way of being a human being. Liu Yuan thought of Ding Huan who had turned into dust, and felt a little melancholy in his heart, but this was not the time to be sentimental. He continued, "It's good that you can understand. The undercover operations of the Demon Cult usually involve two people working together. They will not report to the cult until the matter is successful to avoid leaks or accidents. So we only need to eliminate these two. The rest is the conflict between Shuiyuewu and Chiyu Villa." Xue Wei nodded, then frowned and said, "But Shuiyuewu..." Liu Yuan said: "I will take care of the rest, and I will recommend you and one of my disciples to Yuxu Dao Sect." Xue Wei suddenly raised his head and said excitedly: "Yuxu Dao Sect?!" Liu Yuan hummed and smiled: "Are you surprised? Unexpected?" Xue Wei nodded repeatedly: "Surprise, surprise, senior, you are from Yuxu...?" Liu Yuan sighed: "It's all past events, let's not talk about it. Anyway, I have an old friend in Yuxu, let her take care of you. There will be no problem in sending you to Yuxu, but how much you can achieve is up to your own luck." Xue Wei's heart became even more excited. After hearing these two possibilities, Liu Yuan had made proper arrangements for him and even valued him very much, treating him the same as his own disciples. Not only was he grateful in his heart, but he also secretly made up his mind not to let his predecessor down. When his Dantian was destroyed and he became a disabled person, everyone looked down on him. Even though his parents were still very good to him, they could not hide their disappointment and did not even have any desire to let him make any effort. They wishfully believed that he must have been greatly hit, so they asked him to rest well and not to come into contact with anything related to martial arts to avoid being saddened by the scene. But in fact, he felt that he could do it! If he couldn't practice internal strength, could he not practice external strength? If he couldn't practice martial arts, could he not be a human being? But as soon as he had such thoughts, they would show sad expressions and think that he was just forcing himself. What the hell are you trying to hold on to? Xue Wei hates being treated like a useless person and taken care of in every way. He hopes to be given expectations, and then rely on his own efforts to overcome all setbacks and gain recognition from others! Trusting the words of his predecessors was indeed the best decision he had ever made in his life! "Senior, although I, Xue Wei, have no talent or virtue, I will definitely follow in your footsteps in this life and treat you like a dear teacher to repay your kindness!"
When Xue Wei was filled with mixed emotions, Liu Yuan looked at his touched face and felt even more subtle... He used the character-conquering method to figure him out and gain his favor. The result is naturally a great success—— Xue Wei, the attack was successful! Liu Yuan estimated that this favorability was higher than the level of a vow of eternal love... Although the effect is excellent, why do I always feel something is weird?
