Starting From The Equal Opportunity To Become A Saint

289. Chapter 289 Preparation And Accountability!

Chapter 289: Preparation, Accountability!

The case has been solved!

The only person who could have revealed the existence of the Crimson Flame Spirit Body in his sea of consciousness is the person who suddenly attacked him in the library during the day.

Previously in the library, Yu Jiangcheng had already received a warning from the Crimson Flame Spirit Tiger, saying that there was the presence of a different type of Spirit Body invading his sea of consciousness, so he should be cautious.

Now it seems that this mysterious person in front of him is the one!

He never expected that there would be someone in this world who was as bold as him and had also tamed a Soul Devouring Spirit Body in their own sea of consciousness.

"Why did you help me?"

Yu Jiangcheng quickly calmed down.

Since the other party knew about the existence of the Crimson Flame Spirit Tiger but did not directly report him, it was evident that they were not enemies.

However, he couldn't quite grasp the other party's intentions.

Having been targeted twice as a Human Cauldron, Yu Jiangcheng had a deep understanding of the dangers in the Transcendent realm and would not easily trust anyone.

"It's simple, because I am also an Ascender, and I am extremely dissatisfied with the Immortal Dao cultivators in the Transcendent realm!"

Liu Zimo calmly replied, "In addition, let me tell you something. A year ago, in the Liu Family Village, it was me who saved you from Qingshan Ancestor's hands!"

"And Qingshan Ancestor died at my hands at that time!"

What?!

Yu Jiangcheng's mind shook violently upon hearing this.

After assimilating Yan Zhiyi's soul memory, Yu Jiangcheng naturally knew the truth about being abducted by someone in the Liu Family Village.

However, he had never figured out who had secretly intervened and saved him from Qingshan Ancestor's hands at that time.

Now, hearing this mysterious person bring up the past, Yu Jiangcheng was unexpectedly surprised.

But he didn't immediately believe the other party and asked, "Do you... have any evidence?"

Swish!

Liu Zimo casually waved his hand and threw Qingshan Ancestor's headless corpse to the ground.

After all, it was the true body of a Nascent Soul Sixth Realm cultivator. Even though it had lost all its aura and turned into a corpse, it was far from being refined by treasures like the Eastern Pearl.

So Qingshan Ancestor's body had been intact inside the Eastern Pearl all this time, and now it could be used as evidence.

"This... is actually real?!"

Feeling the familiar aura suddenly appearing in front of the door, Yu Jiangcheng exclaimed in surprise.

Although he had never seen Qingshan Ancestor, Yan Zhiyi was very familiar with him.

Therefore, as soon as Qingshan Ancestor's body appeared, Yu Jiangcheng confirmed Qingshan Ancestor's identity through Yan Zhiyi's soul memory.

"Junior Yu Jiangcheng, thank you, Senior, for saving my life!"

"Just now, I misunderstood Senior with a small-minded perspective. Please don't take offense, Senior!"

Yu Jiangcheng took a deep breath, finally letting go of his guard, and respectfully bowed to Liu Zimo, apologizing at the same time.

Since even the body of the main culprit Qingshan Ancestor had been brought out, what else couldn't he believe?

Moreover, the other party was able to kill Qingshan Ancestor, a former Nascent Soul cultivator, without anyone knowing. It would be too easy for him to deal with Yu Jiangcheng.

Therefore, since he had confirmed that the other party had no ill intentions towards him, Yu Jiangcheng naturally didn't mind attaching himself to a powerful figure.

They are both Ascensionists, naturally belonging to the same faction!

"It's alright!"

Liu Zimo waved his hand lightly and said calmly,

"It's not wrong to be cautious. Being in the den of thieves, it's not excessive for you to be careful!"

"Now you should consider my previous proposal, right?"

Yu Jiangcheng nodded quickly, "I won't hide it from Senior. Ever since I learned the true face of this Immortal Gate, I have been thinking about escaping from this place!"

"But my cultivation base is lowly, and I am constantly being monitored. There is simply no opportunity to leave the Qingyun Immortal Gate."

Yu Jiangcheng no longer had any secrets and directly expressed his thoughts.

He knew that the mysterious person in front of him might be his best chance to leave the Qingyun Immortal Gate and completely escape Ding Xingyi's surveillance.

"Good, as long as you have this idea, it's settled!"

Liu Zimo didn't say much to Yu Jiangcheng anymore. He directly used his spiritual sense to envelop Yu Jiangcheng's body and instantly moved away.

It only took three breaths.

When Yu Jiangcheng opened his eyes again, he found that they had appeared in a town hundreds of miles away from the Qingyun Immortal Gate.

Yu Jiangcheng was completely stunned.

Was it necessary to be this fast?

The protective array of the Qingyun Immortal Gate, as well as many true transmission elders and Nascent Soul cultivators, couldn't stop them?

Yu Jiangcheng couldn't accept it for a moment. It felt like he was dreaming.

He never expected that the prison of the Immortal Gate that he struggled and tried every possible method to escape from for a whole year could be so easily overcome!

Just how powerful was this mysterious person?

Even the mighty Qingyun Immortal Gate, at the Apex Level, couldn't guarantee such an easy escape, even for Yan Zhiyi in his prime!

So, was this senior's cultivation base above the fifth realm of Nascent Soul, and even at the peak of Nascent Soul?

"Alright, now that you have completely escaped the Sea of Bitterness, you can devour and erase the last trace of Yan Zhiyi's true spirit!"

Liu Zimo said softly to Yu Jiangcheng.

Yu Jiangcheng nodded vigorously, without any hesitation. With a thought, he completely devoured and refined the true spirit that had been imprisoned in his sea of consciousness.

This was a last resort he had left behind in case he didn't attract the attention of the Qingyun Immortal Gate.

The fact proved that his decision back then was not wrong.

Immortal Gate Elders like Yan Zhiyi had a corresponding soul lamp lit in each peak main hall.

Just like the previous Qing Shan Patriarch, once they died, their soul lamp would be extinguished, and the Qingyun Immortal Gate would immediately receive the news.

The reason why Yu Jiangcheng had never been discovered was because he had left behind a trace of Yan Zhiyi's true spirit, so he could deceive everyone and survive until now.

Now, he was completely out of danger, and there was no need for Yan Zhiyi's true spirit to exist anymore!

[Your good brother Yu Jiangcheng, through a fortuitous encounter, devoured a strand of the Nascent Soul fifth realm cultivator's true spirit, and his origin soared!

Triggered the 'Heaven Stealing' talent attribute, sharing half of the spiritual sense cultivation base enhancement, spiritual sense +1000, divine soul origin +1000, spiritual origin +1000, sea of consciousness space +10000.]

[Your good brother Yu Jiangcheng, through enlightenment, broke through to the peak of the Golden Core realm in one fell swoop!

Triggered the 'Heaven Stealing' talent attribute, sharing half of the Immortal Dao cultivation base enhancement, Immortal Dao cultivation base +100, divine soul origin +50, Tianzhu Dao Rhyme +10.]

Once again, the [Tianzhu Dao Rhyme] appeared!

Feeling the sudden appearance of a massive amount of Origin Cultivation Base and ten strands of [Tianzhu Dao Rhyme], Liu Zimo was in a great mood.

He didn't expect that Yan Zhiyi's last strand of True Spirit would have such power.

This Yu Jiangcheng is really lucky. He has already obtained a total of forty strands of [Tianzhu Dao Rhyme] from Yan Zhiyi!

If nothing unexpected happens, his speed in advancing to the Nascent Soul stage may even surpass Liu Yun!

After a moment.

Yu Jiangcheng's figure trembled slightly, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes as he slowly regained consciousness from his enlightenment.

"Senior, the Qingyun Immortal Gate should have already sensed the news of Yan Zhiyi's death. It is not suitable to stay here for long. Shouldn't we avoid the limelight for now?" Yu Jiangcheng asked Liu Zimo, wanting to leave this place and stay as far away from the Qingyun Immortal Gate as possible.

"No need for that." Liu Zimo shook his head slightly and said lightly to Yu Jiangcheng, "The more dangerous a place is, the safer it is. In the future, you will settle down in this Qingyuan City and establish a new cultivation family!"

"Within three years, I need your cultivation family to surpass all others and unify Qingyuan City. Then, we will strive to obtain some spots for Ascension from the Qingyun Immortal Gate!"

Yu Jiangcheng was stunned, instantly understanding Liu Zimo's intention.

It seems that this senior wants to use the influence of the cultivation family to protect some relatives who ascend from the mortal realm.

But how is that possible?

He, Yu Jiangcheng, has long been registered with the Qingyun Immortal Gate!

Especially now, with Yan Zhiyi's death, the Qingyun Immortal Gate will definitely hold him responsible.

Yu Jiangcheng was certain that if he dared to appear within the influence of the Qingyun Immortal Gate, he would be hunted down by the Gold Core or even Nascent Soul stage elders of the Qingyun Immortal Gate!

By then, forget about establishing a cultivation family, it would be difficult for him to even save his own life!

"Senior, I won't hide it from you. I have also thought about establishing a cultivation family that can accommodate Ascenders and protect the future members of my Yu family."

Yu Jiangcheng said with a bitter face, "But, my strength is weak, and I will soon be wanted by the Qingyun Immortal Gate. How can I show my face in Qingyuan County?"

"Senior, I understand. It's not that I value my life, but my life was saved by you, senior. If you give me an order, even if I die, I will do my best to fulfill it."

"I'm just worried that I don't have enough ability to complete the task you entrusted to me, which would hinder your important matters."

Liu Zimo seemed to have anticipated Yu Jiangcheng's reaction.

Without saying a word, he directly extended his Spiritual Sense and stuffed all the special cultivation techniques that could hide his aura, change his fate, and fluctuate his soul, such as [Shenxi Art], [Shenxing Jiubian], and [Yishen Shierpian], into Yu Jiangcheng's mind.

"With these things, plus the Crimson Flame Spirit Body in your sea of consciousness, as long as you don't expose yourself actively, few people will be able to discover your true identity!"

This is the main reason why Liu Zimo chose Yu Jiangcheng.

Spirit Body creatures are experts at manipulating soul fluctuations.

With them residing in the sea of consciousness, it is extremely easy to conceal one's aura or change soul fluctuations.

"This..."

Yu Jiangcheng saw the many cultivation techniques that Liu Zimo transmitted to him, and the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

This senior is really well-prepared!

He even managed to obtain the Louwailou's [Shenxi Art].

And there's also [Shenxing Jiubian] and [Yishen Shierpian].

Even Yan Zhiyi, who has lived for thousands of years as a Nascent Soul Elder, has only heard of them occasionally. They are two extremely esoteric secret techniques that few people specialize in.

But now, these extremely precious and obscure secret techniques have all been discovered by the other party.

It can be seen that the other party must have prepared for a long time for this moment, showing their meticulous planning.

In this situation, how could he refuse anymore?

Of course, he didn't intend to refuse either. Establishing a force composed entirely of Ascension practitioners is also what he desires!

At the same time.

Qingyun Immortal Gate.

Inside the Great Hall of the True Transmission of Emerald Bamboo Peak, a soul lamp that was burning suddenly extinguished, turning into a wisp of white smoke drifting in the wind.

"Oh no, Elder Yan's soul lamp has gone out!"

"Quick, go report to the Peak Master!"

The disciples responsible for guarding the soul lamp instantly panicked. Someone quickly flew up and rushed to the mountaintop to report to Dai Yingyu.

In fact, before the person delivering the message arrived at the mountaintop, Dai Yingyu, who had already sensed something, had already arrived in a flash.

"How could this happen?!"

"Elder Yan clearly succeeded in possessing someone's body and has been practicing Closed Door Training within the sect for a year, rarely going out. How could this suddenly happen?"

Looking at the completely extinguished soul lamp, Dai Yingyu found it difficult to accept. He looked around and asked the disciples beside him in a stern voice:

"Where is Elder Ding Xingyi?"

"Quickly bring him to me! I have something to ask him!"

Ding Xingyi is Yu Jiangcheng's master and also the true transmission elder responsible for Yan Zhiyi's safety within the sect.

Now that Yan Zhiyi has had an accident, Ding Yingyu naturally thought of Ding Xingyi first.

"Peak Master, there's no need to trouble yourself. I'm already here!"

As soon as Dai Yingyu finished speaking, Ding Xingyi had already flown into the Great Hall. He bowed his head and respectfully apologized to Dai Yingyu in a hoarse voice:

"I failed to protect him, causing Elder Yan to disappear and die. Please punish me, Peak Master!"

Dai Yingyu frowned and looked at Ding Xingyi:

"Ding Junior Brother, now is not the time for self-blame and accountability. I want to know what happened to Elder Yan, why did he suddenly die, and who is the murderer?!"

Ding Xingyi lowered his head guiltily and remained silent, looking like a frost-bitten eggplant.

He heard Dai Yingyu's question.

However, how the hell would he know what happened?!

Even now, he himself is completely clueless, okay?

He doesn't understand why Elder Yan suddenly disappeared, followed by the news of his soul lamp extinguishing.

Everything was fine during the day.

When resting at night, he even stayed in the room next to Elder Yan's, occasionally using his Spiritual Sense to investigate, fearing that something might happen!

But now, in the middle of the night, a perfectly fine person has disappeared without a trace?

This is within Qingyun Immortal Gate, and Elder Yan is not a rookie without any resistance.

Who has such great ability to avoid the sect's protective formation, bypass the perception of the senior disciples, the Head Teacher, and the four peak masters, and directly abduct someone?

Ding Xingyi's mind was full of question marks, and he couldn't answer Dai Yingyu's question at all.

All he knew was that things had taken a turn for the worse, and his troubles had grown!
