Nine Transformations of the True Spirit.

Chapter 116: Flying Swords Defeat the Six Enemies
While the two were talking, Mo Jingchun was at the top of the valley, watching Xue Lin and Song Qingru fall into a disadvantage, and had no intention of helping them.

Although Xue Lin and Song Qingru also joined the Lingyun Sect through the Ascension Conference, they were born into immortal cultivation families and were regarded as orthodox cultivators of the same lineage.

Mo Jingchun didn't add insult to injury because he was a fellow disciple. Why would he stand up for them?
He smiled coldly and turned to leave, but at this moment, the handsome monk said:

"If it weren't for Chen Yuan and Ren You joining forces, Qi would never have let you enter the inner ring!"

After hearing these words, Mo Jingchun paused, turned around, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Xue Lin laughed up to the sky and said:
"It turns out that Fellow Daoist Qi is also a bully who only fears the strong and does not dare to act in front of Brother Chen. He only dares to show off in front of the two of us!"

The handsome monk was none other than Qi Hong, who had led disciples from the two sects to block the inner ring passage.

He was humiliated by Xue Lin's words, and his face was filled with anger. He said coldly:

"Aren't you also just taking advantage of the power of the tiger? If you can summon Chen Yuan now, I will not bother you. If you can't, just hand over the spiritual herbs on you!"

After saying this, the magic words in his hand changed, and he controlled a purple gold gourd magic weapon, which sprayed out a stream of fire, which turned into dozens of flaming butterflies and pounced towards Xue Lin.

Xue Lin's face changed slightly, and he quickly activated his magic power. A stream of ink appeared on the folding fan in front of him, trying to extinguish the flaming butterfly.

But Qi Hong's purple gold gourd is extraordinary. The flame inside it is collected from the earth fire and refined, and it is extremely powerful.

Only a dozen fire butterflies were killed, and the ink stream was burned into water vapor all over the sky. The remaining butterflies continued to pounce on Xue Lin.

Seeing that Xue Lin was about to fall into death, Song Qingru wanted to help, but was firmly entangled by another disciple of Zi Yang Sect.

Xue Lin gritted his teeth, changed the magic gesture in his hand, and the folding fan magic weapon suddenly grew to seven feet in size, blocking the flaming butterfly.

But it was not a defensive weapon. Under the burning of the volcanic butterfly, the fan surface became charred black and had several holes burned through it. It was obviously unable to withstand the attack.

Xue Lin also knew that he could not escape this time, and said bitterly:
"If Xue hadn't encountered a strong enemy on the road, hadn't used up all his magic talismans, and hadn't had his defensive magic tools severely damaged, how could I have been defeated by you!"

Qi Hong laughed and said:
"The inner ring is dangerous. You are not strong enough and have to rely on others to enter the inner ring. You deserve this!"

As he urged his magic power, a stream of fire spewed out from the purple gold gourd, which transformed into several fire bats, and pounced towards Xue Lin, wanting to kill him in one fell swoop.

But at this moment, a voice came:
"stop!"

Qi Hong was startled and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a golden flying sword flying towards him at lightning speed.

He did not dare to be careless. He changed the magic spell in his hand and the fire bats turned around and headed towards the flying sword.

At the same time, the flame on an oil lamp hanging in front of him suddenly lit up, supporting a light red light shield that protected Qi Hong inside.

The golden flying sword came swiftly, killing several fire bats, cutting through the sky and piercing the light shield.

There was a slight ding sound and the light shield shook slightly, but was not broken by the flying sword.

Qi Hong felt relieved upon seeing this, and immediately activated his magic power. The purple gold gourd spewed out three streams of fire in succession, which condensed into a fire phoenix and pounced towards the golden flying sword.

The golden flying sword turned around, avoided the fire phoenix, and flew back.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sword and saw a figure floating down from the top of the valley. It was Mo Jingchun.

The golden flying sword circled around him like a swimming fish, full of spirituality.

Xue Lin saw that he was wearing the Lingyun Sect's standard robes and killed several of Qi Hong's fire bats with one sword. It was obvious that he was quite powerful. He was overjoyed and said:
"Thank you, senior brother, for your help!"

Mo Jingchun suddenly attacked, giving him a chance to catch his breath. After the folding fan was burned through, he took out a top-grade magic weapon and finally blocked the flaming butterfly.

Song Qingru's veil fluttered in front of her, blocking her opponent's attack. She bowed to Mo Jingchun and said:
"My name is Song Qingru, nice to meet you, Senior Brother Mo."

When the white auspicious clouds on the identity jade card stopped moving, she knew that a fellow disciple had come nearby, so she was not surprised by Mo Jingchun's appearance.

Mo Jingchun looked at the two of them and asked:

"Have you met Junior Brother Chen Yuan?"

Song Qingru was startled, then nodded and said:
"That's right. The two of us once teamed up with Senior Brother Chen to break into the secret realm."

Mo Jingchun nodded slightly, turned to look at Qi Hong, and said coldly:

"You can't touch these two people."

Qi Hong stared at the golden flying sword circling around Mo Jingchun, and suddenly nodded:

"Okay, I'll give you some face!"

He took back the purple gold gourd and the oil lamp, turned around and left.

Another Zi Yang Sect disciple was quite surprised when he saw this, but he also took back his magic weapon and left with Qi Hong.

Mo Jingchun had no intention of chasing after them. He just stood there and watched the two of them go away.

After the two left the valley, the Ziyang Sect disciple asked in confusion:

"Brother Qi, are we just going to leave like this? Those two have a lot of spiritual herbs in their hands. If we can snatch them, you will definitely be among the top when the merits are evaluated."

Qi Hong shook his head slightly:

"The person who came to help seems to be a sword cultivator with strong skills. There is no need to offend him for the spiritual herbs in the hands of those two people."

The disciple was surprised and said:
"Does Lingyun Sect also have a sword cultivation tradition?"

Qi Hong shook his head and said:
"This person's flying sword is swift and full of spirituality, but it lacks a sharp aura. He must have received an incomplete inheritance, but compared with the disciples of the Tiangang Sword Sect, he is far behind."

...In the valley, Mo Jingchun didn't know that Qi Hong had seen through him just by striking with his sword.

After the two left, he put away the golden flying sword, turned to look at the two people, and said:

"Tell me in detail about your collaboration with Junior Brother Chen."

Xue Lin and Song Qingru put away their magic weapons and recounted in detail how they had teamed up with Chen Yuan to break into the inner ring passage.

When Mo Jingchun heard that Chen Yuan fought against eight people alone and not only did not lose, but also killed one of them, he could not help but be surprised:

"Is this true?"

Xue Lin nodded and said:
"It's absolutely true! Senior Brother Chen is invincible. If Qi Hong hadn't seen the situation was not good and voluntarily admitted defeat and opened the passage, the seven of us would have been able to kill all the disciples of the two sects together!"

Mo Jingchun was shocked. He thought he had taken Chen Yuan seriously enough, but he didn't expect that he still underestimated his strength.

At the same time, he no longer worried about Chen Yuan's safety.

With such means, even if you meet Qin Xuanning, Zhong Mianye and others, you can escape unscathed.

But since Chen Yuan was safe and sound, why didn't he go to Luoxing Mountain?

Mo Jingchun was confused and planned to ask Chen Yuan for clarification after leaving the secret realm.

Afterwards, the three of them walked together towards the place of guidance.

Along the way, they met several monks one after another, and when they saw the three of them traveling together, they did not take action.

Two hours later, the three arrived at the receiving place, found a secluded place, took out the receiving talisman, and waited quietly.

Three hours later, the guiding talisman suddenly emitted light, wrapped up the three people, and flew away into the air.

……

Outside the secret realm, on the top of a barren mountain.

Six Jindan cultivators raised their hands, made hand gestures, and injected magic power into the formation plate in front of them. Ripples appeared in the void, and a door formed by colorful spiritual light slowly emerged.

After a moment, the Lingguang gate slowly opened, and three colorful streams of light flew out. After landing, they turned into three human figures who staggered two steps. They were Mo Jingchun, Xue Lin, and Song Qingru.

They were extremely lucky and were the first to leave the secret realm.

After the three of them landed, they steadied their bodies and came to the area belonging to the Lingyun Sect.

Jin Luoheng stood in front of the three people, with his hands behind his back, his body straight, his sleeves fluttering in the wind, looking free and unrestrained.

Xue Lin suddenly walked up to Jin Luoheng, bowed deeply, and said loudly:
"Elder Jin, I have something to report. The disciples of Ziyang Sect and Guiyuan Sect have joined forces to block the disciples of the four sects from the inner ring passage. They have monopolized the inner ring of the secret realm and looted spiritual herbs. They are overbearing and tyrannical. Elder Jin, please help me!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the elders from various sects changed, except for the Jindan cultivators from Guiyuan Sect and Ziyang Sect, who remained calm.

Jin Luoheng said nothing, but Xu Changan said:
"Tell me the details!"

Xue Lin then told the whole story. At this time, disciples from various sects flew out of the Lingguang Gate one after another. Disciples from Wanshou Mountain, Mingyin Valley, and Tiangang Sword Sect also reported the matter to their elders.

The green-robed old woman from Wanshou Mountain looked at the monk surnamed Xie:

"Thank you, fellow Daoist. You need to give me an explanation for this matter."

The monk surnamed Xie said calmly:
"In the secret realm, there is no restriction from the rules of the immortal cultivation world. If the children are willing to join hands to collect spiritual herbs, what's wrong with that?"

The heroic Taoist of Tiangang Sword Sect said coldly:
"The Ziyang Sect is a ten-thousand-year-old sect after all. Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed for acting this way?"

The monk surnamed Xie remained calm and used the sound transmission technique to say:
"The calamity is approaching, and we have no choice but to do it. Haven't all of you sent your elite disciples to collect spiritual herbs? Although our sect's lineage is longer-lasting, if we don't adapt to the situation, we still don't know whether we can survive this calamity."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of several Jindan cultivators changed slightly, but they did not refute anymore.

Xu Changan looked at the two Jindan cultivators of Guiyuan Sect and said in a voice transmission:

"It seems that Guiyuan Sect is going to follow Ziyang Sect's lead?"

The two remained silent. Seeing this, the monk surnamed Xie smiled and said:

"Fellow Daoist Xu is wrong. In this calamity, the six major sects must work together to fight the enemy. Our sect and Guiyuan Sect are just a little closer. We cooperate sincerely and there is no distinction between the main and the secondary."

A tall and thin Jindan cultivator from Mingyin Valley said:

"Since the six major sects are going to join forces to fight the enemy, aren't you afraid that your sect and Guiyuan Sect will become disunited if they do this?"

Daoyou Xie shook his head and said:

"Fellow Daoist Gui, you are too serious. How can such a small matter affect the overall situation of the six sects? If fellow Daoists are interested, you can also let our disciples join forces on the next trip to the secret realm. My Ziyang Sect will never complain."

The monk surnamed Gui snorted coldly and said no more.

The other Jindan cultivators also stopped questioning the cultivator named Xie, but they looked at each other and showed signs of being interested.

If Zi Yang Sect and Gui Yuan Sect can do it, why can't they?

The Qi-refining disciples present at the scene saw that the elders suddenly stopped talking in the middle of their speech, with only their lips moving. They knew that they were communicating in private, and their imaginations ran wild.

As the elder stopped communicating, everyone knew that the matter had already come to a conclusion. The disciples of the two sects who had joined forces to block the inner ring passage had not been punished.

The disciples of the four sects were extremely indignant, but the disciples of Zi Yang Sect and Gui Yuan Sect looked pleased.
