The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple-Chapter 918 - 290: Eighth Uncle, You Don’t Understand That Addictive Sense of Conquest (6k)

...

Two months later!

Outside the Taiqing Sect's Mountain Gate!

Seven figures arrived here, and as they looked at the majestic mountain gate before them, their expressions were complicated.

The leader, Immortal Xuan You, stood tall. Although life had returned to her, the silver in her hair and the wrinkles on her face could not be hidden.

Although the poison of the "Sealing Spirit Forbidden Technique" was dispelled, the marks of time could not be erased.

The accompanying four Supreme Elders, including Yun Jing, looked at the flourishing Taiqing Sect before them, their hearts a mix of emotions.

Both were among the five major sects of the Eastern Domain; one rose like the morning sun, while the other set like the evening sun in the west.

Thinking of this, Yun Jing couldn't help but look at Zhu He and Yuan Ya, who they had brought along.

Although the former had comprehended the Realm and entered Divinity Transformation, her character was reclusive and taciturn, unsuitable for the role of a leader.

The latter was only at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, because of her Earth Vein Foundation Establishment, she might not even break through to Divinity Transformation in the future.

Yet she was intricately connected with Zhou Qing, especially after Ji Xuan's body was destroyed by Zhou Qing, who then took over her soul.

Her heart must be filled with resentment and unwillingness.

If she were appointed as the next Sect Leader, she would definitely receive much support from the Taiqing Sect, gaining great benefits.

But a Nascent Soul Realm Sect Leader might struggle to command respect, and might be even less effective than some small sect leaders, leaving the disciples feeling unsafe.

So now, it truly was a dilemma!

"Have all the gifts been prepared?" Immortal Xuan You slightly turned her head, her voice steady.

Zhu He and Yuan Ya hurriedly stepped forward and replied in unison, "They are prepared!"

Immortal Xuan You nodded, bowing deeply toward the mountain gate barrier: "Xuan You of the Cyan Feather Immortal Sect is here to greet Junior Sect Leader Zhou Qing!"

The barrier rippled with two colors, and Wuzhu came out with hands behind his back. Seeing the respectful appearance of the crowd, he couldn't help but puff out his chest, "So it's Sect Leader Xuan You, please wait a moment, this old man will go in and report."

After speaking, he returned to his bamboo chair, took a sip of tea, very leisurely.

As for the other guarding disciples, they also snorted coldly, eyes full of mockery.

Where was that arrogance when you kidnapped my sect's Junior Sect Leader?

Do you know the saying, 'thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river'?

It wasn't until the evening when Wuzhu leisurely informed Mo Xingjian.

Currently, Senior Brother Gao Xuan is still in seclusion, the Sect Leader is far away in Lingyun Mansion, the six Peak Masters guard the Phecda Sect, and the eight Supreme Elders watch over Dubhe and Master Lingxu, even that dried corpse.

The entire Taiqing Sect's affairs once again fell onto Mo Xingjian's shoulders.

And deliberately leaving the Cyan Feather Immortal Sect's people waiting was on the orders of the Sect Leader before he left.

Soon after, Mo Xingjian arrived fashionably late. When he stepped out of the mountain gate, he was all smiles: "Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Xuan You, on your rebirth!"

Immortal Xuan You hurriedly returned the salute, her tone sincere: "I owe my life to Zhou, hence I've come personally to express my gratitude."

"Our Old Fourth is still in seclusion and may not be able to welcome you personally. Please, go inside and rest," Mo Xingjian gestured.

Immortal Xuan You's expression was respectful: "The Junior Sect Leader's cultivation is important, how dare we disturb? Being welcomed by Peak Master Mo is already an honor."

With that said, the group followed Mo Xingjian into the mountain gate.

...

Meanwhile, inside the quiet chamber!

Blood light surged like tides across Zhou Qing's body, and in his sea of consciousness, a massive Blood Phoenix roared amidst surging blood flames.

The five scarlet feathers on its chest trembled violently, entwining like living creatures, the viscous blood droplets seeping from the feather tips interweaving into bizarre runes in the air.

At the moment the runes took shape, the sea of consciousness shook violently, and flames around the Blood Phoenix soared, transforming into a blood-colored pillar piercing the sky.

And around the Blood Phoenix, there was a world shrouded in endless blood curtains, a peculiar world purely interwoven by countless Dao Patterns.

Zhou Qing slowly opened his eyes, filled with ecstatic joy.

With a thought, a pair of gigantic Blood Wing Illusions suddenly appeared behind him.

On the wings were entwined scarlet runes, each pattern exhaling blood-colored mist, and though they were mere illusions, their power was astonishing.

Zhou Qing lightly turned his mind, and as the blood wings slightly flapped, the air instantly emitted a piercing tearing sound, with several scarlet fissures slashing the void.

"Is this the Blood Wing Illusion? Truly imposing!" Zhou Qing whispered to himself.

"As long as enemies within its range are slain, under its shroud, the [Blood Phoenix Tribulation Crystal] can automatically condense."

"This Tribulation Crystal contains the purest blood and spiritual power of the deceased, refining it without any side effects, perfectly fitting the massive spiritual power needed for my Four Flowers Gathering at the Crown!"

"In the future, breaking through to the late stage of the Divinity Transformation Realm, Great Perfection, or even the Spirit Severing Realm, will depend on it. This is the terror of Inscription Level Divine Techniques!"

As Zhou Qing's thoughts retracted, the anomalous phenomenon in the sea of consciousness gradually subsided.

Looking at the Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree that had returned to silence before him, Zhou Qing sighed lightly.

This time, it was fortunate he had placed twelve top-grade wood attribute spirit stones, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to fully condense the fifth trace of Phoenix Dao Pattern.

And this comprehension took a full two months, twenty days more than last time.

"Comprehending the sixth trace of the Dao Pattern might require at least fifteen to twenty wood attribute spirit stones, and the time may increase to three months!"

Zhou Qing clicked his tongue: "No wonder Second Uncle said encountering and mastering one Inscription Level Divine Technique in a lifetime is already a great fortune."

"I almost cheated my way to cultivating the fifth trace, others would find it nearly impossible."

At this moment, Zhou Qing couldn't help but think of Shen Hanyi, wondering how her cultivation progress was?

With her aptitude, relying on conventional methods to cultivate an Inscription Level Divine Technique might also be difficult.

It seems I must find an opportunity in the future to persuade her to seek another cultivation technique.

Stowing away the Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree, Zhou Qing stepped out of the quiet room, taking a deep breath of fresh air.

But the newfound joy was soon replaced by worries: "Now everything is ready, except for that one critical element. But where am I to find a large number of enemies to condense the Blood Phoenix Tribulation Crystal?"
