Chapter 160 Return
A few days later.

Longshou Peak.

Pei Jingque's figure wandered in front of the bookshelves in the library, taking out a book from time to time to look through it, then shaking his head slightly and putting it back.

It seems that he is not very satisfied with the records.

"Shocked magpie."

"Uncle Feng."

Pei Jingque turned around when he heard the sound.

"What are you looking at?" Feng Wujiu looked haggard, and glanced at the cover of the book in her hand, and spoke slowly:
"The secret methods of body possession and reincarnation are only accessible to those in the late Dao Foundation stage or even the Golden Core Grandmaster. It is useless for you to observe them now."

"Yes."

Pei Jingque nodded:
"I'm feeling uneasy, so I want to find some miscellaneous books to read."

"Yeah." Feng Wujiu nodded.

"You have a heavy responsibility and are under a lot of pressure. This time you encountered a disaster and finally escaped. It would be good to relax a little."

"Uncle Master." Pei Jingque asked:
"Have you ever encountered someone who possessed another's body or reincarnated?"

"I have encountered it before." Feng Wujiu smiled.
"A hundred years ago, there was a Taoist monk who was unwilling to accept the end of his life, so he used a secret method to take over another person's body before his death."

"result……"

"I've become a fool!"

"Ah!" Pei Jingque was stunned. This result was beyond her expectations.

"No need to be surprised." Feng Wuju waved his hand:

"If you ever advance to the Dao Foundation stage, you will understand how fragile the human soul is and how slim the chances of successfully possessing another body are."

"It is said..."

"The legendary Yuanshen Zhenren can abandon his physical body and exist between heaven and earth, and can take over other bodies and be reborn at will."

"Of course, these are just rumors."

As for reincarnation, it only exists in legends.

Pei Jingque nodded slowly.

"Then..." She spoke cautiously:
"If the possession is successful, what characteristics will it have?"

"Success?" Feng Wuju stroked his beard lightly:

"Because their souls and bodies are not connected, such people usually find it difficult to cultivate. Even if they embark on the path of cultivation, they find it difficult to achieve anything. They can only become ordinary people and live in misery for decades."

"Daoji monks have become accustomed to their own strength, so they would rather die than choose to possess another body."

"So that's it!" Pei Jingque understood and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why do you think of asking this question?" Feng Wujiu said slowly:
"You finally escaped from the hands of the robbers. You should rest well and recharge your energy."

"I met a cultivator with extremely powerful spiritual power." Pei Jingque explained:

"His cultivation is average, but his spirit is strong."

"Oh!" Feng Wujiu raised his eyebrows:

"That's quite rare."

"I think it must be some special technique or some special physique."

Method?

constitution?

Pei Jingque seemed to be lost in thought.

"To become a Taoist cultivator, one must achieve perfection in essence, energy, and spirit. Among these, the method of refining the spirit is the rarest." Feng Wuju said:
"Even in our Mingxu Sect, there are only a few methods of refining the spirit, and those that do exist require special requirements before they can be practiced."

"Fortunately, in the process of opening the nine orifices, the cultivator's spirit will also become stronger. When all nine orifices are opened, the spirit is already not weak."

"Add the foundation-building pill..."

"As long as one's innate ability is perfect, there is a 30% chance of achieving the Dao foundation."

These are the common sense that one must know in order to reach the Dao Foundation realm, and Pei Jingque is even more aware of them.

Hearing this, he just nodded silently, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Little Magpie."

Feng Wujiu suddenly spoke:
"You have been seriously injured this time, and your strength has declined significantly. The possibility of building a foundation will also be reduced."

"so……"

"It doesn't matter even if it doesn't work out."

'Little Magpie' was Pei Jingque's childhood nickname, and Feng Wujiu hasn't called him that for many years.

I called her here this time because I didn't want to put too much pressure on her.

"It's done, and everyone is happy."

"No."

Feng Wujiu smiled:

"It doesn't matter. At worst, you can become a peak-level Xiantian cultivator like me, and then you can serve the sect, right?"

"Uncle Master." Pei Jingque looked astonished. Letting the Dragon Head lineage stand up again had always been the other party's obsession.

"I'm almost dying, what else is there to be upset about?" Feng Wuju shook his head:

"I've watched you all grow up. If you can live happily, what's wrong with that?"

"Knowing my fate, I am lucky to lose it."

Pei Jingque was silent for a long time before he said slowly, "Uncle Master, I plan to go into seclusion and try to reach the Dao Foundation realm."

Ok?
Feng Wujiu looked surprised.

…………

patio.

Zhu Ju raised one hand, and the five-pointed flying sword trembled slightly, flying out at a relatively slow speed.

"Dang Cang..."

The flying sword fell to the ground.

It is obviously a great loss of spirituality.

It will definitely take a long time to restore it to its original state.

"Da da……"

Someone knocked on the gate from outside.

"Senior Sister Pei?"

The visitor was unexpected.

Under the stone pavilion.

The aroma of tea overflows.

The two sat opposite each other.

At this time, several days had passed since the two of them escaped back to Longshou Peak, and various news from the outside world had been coming in one by one.

However, it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false.

"Junior Brother Zhu."

Facing Zhu Ju, Pei Jingque still felt a little uncomfortable. He picked up the teacup and took a sip before speaking:

"Do you have guests here?"

"Yes." Zhu Ju nodded:
"Brother Yan Bohu is a good friend who joined the sect with me. I helped him escape on the way back, so I came here specifically to thank him."

"Hmm." Pei Jingque just asked casually, paused and said:
"What happened between us...I haven't mentioned it to anyone else yet."

"Sister, don't worry."

Zhu Ju immediately said:
"I won't say anything."

"That's not what I meant." Pei Jingque frowned, even a little annoyed.

how?

Is it shameful to have sex with yourself?
"It has already happened, we must face it seriously. If you are interested, we can actually try to get in touch with you."

"of course."

"Wait until I'm released."

"Exit?" Zhu Ju stopped serving tea.

"Senior Sister is going into seclusion?"

"Yes."

Pei Jingque nodded.

"The appearance of the robber cultivators this time is extraordinary. They are not only targeting me, but also the entire Mingxu Sect."

"Senior Daoji of the Feifeng lineage is in a coma, and it's unclear whether he can be saved. Senior Su of the Tianjian lineage is also seriously injured. The Longshou lineage can't live in constant fear. A Daoji must be there to take charge."

"I plan to rest for a few years, and then try to reach the Dao Foundation realm."

"Hmm?" Zhu Ju's face was solemn.
“What’s the point?”

The situation of Taoist monks is a secret in the sect, and only someone like Pei Jingque can know about it.

Not expected.

The situation has deteriorated to this point, even the Taoist monks have been injured?
"Don't worry too much." Pei Jingque slowed down his voice:
"Ever since the sect decided to eliminate the Five Poison Sect, we have been prepared to face the situation today."

"If the Mingxu Sect wants to gain a foothold in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, there will definitely be setbacks."

"Nowadays, the calamity of cultivators is a disaster, but there are also many independent cultivators who have been recruited by the sect and become guest elders."

"Overall, our strength has not declined but improved." Zhu Ju nodded slowly.

The independent cultivators in the Ten Thousand Mountains rarely possess a complete Taoist inheritance, let alone the techniques that lead directly to the Golden Elixir.

As long as Mingxu Sect shows goodwill, it will not be difficult to recruit them.

"Give."

Pei Jingque took out a book and handed it over:

"You and I... practiced the same technique together, and your physique has also changed, becoming a weakened version of the Xuanxu Body."

"There are methods in here that are suitable for cultivating the Xuanxu body. If you have time, take a look and practice a few."

"Oh!" Zhu Ju's eyes moved slightly, and he reached out to take it:

"Thank you, senior sister."

"..." Pei Jingque pursed his lips:

"I'm in seclusion this time, which could be as short as a few years, or as long as ten or twenty years. Don't you have anything to say to me?"

"Senior Sister wants to reach the Dao Foundation Realm. Do you have any Foundation Establishment Pills?"

"Have."

"Then I wish Senior Sister to achieve the Dao Foundation in advance."

"?"

Pei Jingque shrugged and threw down a token:
"Your flying sword has lost its spiritual power. It is too energy-consuming to nurture it as before, and it is no longer suitable for your current level of cultivation. Prepare some spirit stones and take this to the Heavenly Sword lineage to ask Master Yu to refine it again."

"Farewell!"

"Senior sister, walk slowly."

…………

Watching the Dragon-Breaking Stone slowly falling, Pei Jingque's beautiful eyes gradually closed until they were completely dark.

Yes!

It's just a one-night stand, why worry about it?

She bent her fingers and lightly tapped them, a ray of light lit up between her eyebrows, the nine orifices in her body trembled, and her true energy surged out.

"Although I have lost my innate yin energy, I have received help from Junior Brother Zhu, and my spiritual power has become more condensed."

"This time, my energy and spirit are sufficient, and with the help of the foundation-building pill, I may not be worse off than when my Yuan Yin was not lost."

"The three thousand worlds are all journeys, a single cold light breaks through nirvana."

"Congeal!"

Tianjian Peak.

Qu Hongxiao was surrounded by a group of people, with a stern face, shouting:
"I didn't take it!"

"I didn't take it!"

"If it's not you, then who else could it be?" A young and beautiful female cultivator stepped forward, pointed at her nose and shouted:

"You've been hanging around here these past few days. When we left, there was no one else around."

"Who else could it be if not you?"

"That's right." One person said:
"Junior Sister Qu, you are also an inner sect disciple. The sect has never been short of your spirit stones. Why do you still want to steal other people's things?"

"I didn't take it!" Qu Hongxiao screamed:

"I have Yunjian, I didn't take your things!"

"You still say you didn't take it?" Someone said with disdain:
"Last time, you said you didn't take Senior Brother Wu's sword pendant. But what happened? The thing was found in your room."

"I didn't take it!" Qu Hongxiao continued to shout:

"I didn't take it last time! Who knows who put it in my room?"

"Speak again..."

"Say that again and I'll chop you down!"

She drew her sword, her eyes wide open, and looked as if she was ready to fight to the death with those people.

"Wow..."

The crowd scattered in all directions in an instant.

"Forget it."

Someone tried to smooth things over:

"It's just a cloud shoulder. If it was stolen, it's stolen. It's not worth getting angry over such a small thing."

"Besides..."

"If a fool has touched something, I probably won't want it."

"Yes, yes!"

"There's no point in arguing with a fool."

"Humph!"

The woman snorted coldly:

"Mr. Qu, you used to have Uncle Gu protecting you. Now that Uncle Gu is dead, I wonder who will protect you."

"If you steal other people's things, you will be expelled from the sect sooner or later!"

"I didn't steal it!" Qu Hongxiao glared and waved her sword:
"Say it again!"

"what!"

The woman screamed and stepped back repeatedly.

"You fool! You lunatic!"

"let's go!"

The group of people dispersed with murmurs, occasionally looking back at the angry Qu Hongxiao and whispering to each other.

"I didn't take it."

Qu Hongxiao pouted and sheathed her sword.
"I didn't take it anyway."

"Brother Leng, Uncle Yu is calling you." Someone shouted in the crowd.

"what's up?"

"A senior brother named Zhu Ju from Longshou Peak is here to refine a flying sword and wants you to go over and prepare it."

?

Senior Brother Zhu!
The familiar name made Qu Hongxiao's eyes light up, and she turned around to follow.

I thought about it.

She hurried back to her yard, took out a pair of new cloth boots from the box and put them on her feet.

"Ok!"

He frowned and looked down at his feet which were a little tight.

She was feeling a little uncomfortable at first, but the brand new cloth boots and clean uppers made her grin.

Then he quickly walked out and ran towards Uncle Yu's cave.

In front of the cave gate.

A familiar figure was talking to someone, and Qu Hongxiao's eyes lit up when she saw this scene from afar.

pace,

But it slowed down little by little.

From a distance, she pursed her lips, hid behind a tree, and slowly lowered her head while holding her sword.

Even if we meet, what can we do?
Will Senior Brother Zhu like me looking so dirty?

Own……

Just a fool.

…………

"Hong Xiao."

"You were born with a sword bone, which makes you unique. Don't let others' comments make you feel sorry for yourself."

With only one breath left, Gu Yi leaned against a tree, gazing into the distance with cloudy eyes, and asked slowly:
"what do you want?"

"Master." Qu Hongxiao blinked her eyes.

"I want you alive."

"Silly girl." Gu Yi grinned:
"Master has been through a lot and has lived enough. But you, on the other hand, do you know why you are living?"

"Why live?" Qu Hongxiao's eyes were dull.

"Other people's living is called living, but a fool's living... is that also called living? Others say I'm here to make up the numbers."

"..." Gu Yi was silent for a long time before saying:

"No!"

"I clearly remember the feeling when you picked up that sword. My apprentice is not here to make up the numbers."

…………

"Junior sister?"

Zhu Ju came under the tree and looked at the figure standing there blankly:
"Junior sister?"

"what!"

Qu Hongxiao came back to her senses, her face flushed instantly, and she spoke shyly:
"Brother Zhu."
