Black Fairy, the master is a female ghost

The Qingfeng Sect is located in the mountains in the west of the Zhou Empire.

Two thousand miles northwest of Zhongzhou City is the Qingfeng Sect.

The old man Elder Yun held Lu Xunhuan and seemed to be eager to return home. He did not even stop on the way and flew hungry for a whole day. At noon the next day, he arrived at the picturesque Qingfeng Mountains.

Lu Xunhuan looked at the beautiful scenery around Qingfeng Sect from the air and couldn't help but admire it inwardly. Such a fairyland-like place, full of spiritual energy, is indeed a good place to cultivate immortality.

Last week, the territory occupied by one of the largest sects in the empire was of course the best.

After Elder Yun brought Lu Xunhuan into the mountains, he directly locked him in a cave where the Qingfeng Sect usually punished its disciples by making them face the wall. He activated the runes to seal the cave entrance, and then went to report to the Sect Master.

Lu Xunhuan looked into the cave and had no choice but to sit down cross-legged and start practicing.

About an incense stick's time later, runes at the cave entrance flashed, and a disciple came in carrying a bamboo basket.

He looked at Lu Xunhuan and put the bamboo basket on the ground: "Let's eat."

After saying this, he turned around, put his hand against the rune barrier, silently recited a mantra, and disappeared again.

Lu Xunhuan stood up, took the bamboo basket, opened it and saw two pancakes and a pot of water.

He sat down with his back against the stone wall, eating some bread to satisfy his hunger while thinking about how he could get the Qingfeng Sect to release him.

At this time, in the main hall of Qingfeng Sect, the sect leader was sitting upright, with three elders standing on each side.

Elder Yun stood in the middle, facing the headmaster.

After listening to Elder Yun's report, the Sect Master pondered for a moment and said, "Whether he's willing to help or not, have all the disciples stuck at the ninth level of the Qin Heart Realm go to the Nine-Layered Demon Tower to hunt for demon beast inner cores."

He looked at the two of them and said, "He Yi, Cheng Mo, organize the disciples and set off immediately."

Two elders, one male and one female, bowed and said, "Yes."

After the two elders left, Elder Yun continued, "It's impossible for a small sect like Dengtianmen to possess such profound cultivation methods. Lu Xunhuan has made such rapid progress, he must be guided by a master behind the scenes. We should be on guard against any intrusion."

The headmaster nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Guard Yunya yourself."

In the cave, Lu Xunhuan ate some bread and drank some water, then sat cross-legged on the ground and closed his eyes to practice.

Half an hour later, runes at the cave entrance shone and Elder Yun appeared.

He walked forward a few steps, looked at Lu Xunhuan who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, and then looked at the bamboo basket.

Then, he sat down cross-legged across from Lu Xunhuan and said with a pleasant expression, "We are all cultivators. What is the great path of cultivation? For the sake of the common people of the world, the stronger our abilities, the more we can exert our power to help the people of the world."

He stroked his beard and continued, "All immortal cultivators in the world are one family. Why do you have to be so estranged from us? Are you worried that once my Qingfeng Sect becomes stronger, it will destroy your Dengtian Sect?"

Lu Xun Huan shook his head: "That's not the case. If you want to bully the weak, you have the ability now. But this method... I promised others that I would never tell anyone else. I can't go back on my word."

Elder Yun asked, "Is this the master who secretly taught you how to cultivate immortality? Tell me who he is and I will personally convince him. If my level is not high enough, our leader will go and convince him personally."

Lu Xun Huan smiled bitterly and said, "I promised others to keep everything secret. How can I tell you who he is? Besides, I really don't know who he is. He only teaches me and doesn't allow me to ask about his background."

Elder Yun stroked his beard and pondered for a moment: "Who is it? Could it be from Feixian Sect? But Brother He doesn't know about this."

Lu Xun Huan said, "Elder, please stop guessing. You can't guess it. Please let me go back to Zhongzhou City as soon as possible. Without me, there will be no one to lead the Zuoying Camp."

Elder Yun shook his head: "Since I brought you here, how can I let you go if I don't get your good method?"

He stood up and said, "Think about it again."

He took two steps towards the cave entrance and turned back: "Perhaps, we should bring Qingdai back with us. She is a disciple of my sect, but she ran away to help you guard the yard. Is she still cultivating immortality? She is not doing her job properly."

Lu Xun Huan asked, "She's a disciple of your sect and a member of the Immortal Friends Association. Do you still care what she does?"

Elder Yun did not answer him. He put his hand against the rune barrier, silently recited a mantra, and disappeared.

Lu Xunhuan thought for a moment, then closed his eyes and continued practicing.

In a blink of an eye, ten days of cultivation had passed in the cave.

The golden elixir in Lu Xunhuan's dantian was shining brightly.

During these ten days, he calmed down and practiced hard, just to see how many days it would take to break through to the Huiyang Realm.

After ten days of hard work, he had a clear idea in his mind. The energy of heaven and earth absorbed from the ten days of practice had contributed one tenth to the foundation of Huiyang Realm.

In other words, if he wanted to break through from the ninth level of Tengyun Realm to Huiyang Realm, he would have to practice hard for at least a hundred days.

Moreover, during the practice, the golden hoop in his arms played an auxiliary role from time to time, allowing him to practice faster than normal.

If it weren't for the golden hoop, it would definitely take more than a hundred days to break through from the ninth level of the Tengyun Realm to the Huiyang Realm.

Maybe it will take one hundred and twenty days, or maybe one hundred and fifty days.

Elder Yun did not come again during these ten days.

The disciple brought him food and drink three times a day.

Apart from that, he didn't see anyone.

On the eleventh day, shortly after breakfast in the morning, runes at the cave entrance began to flash, and two people came in at once.

Moreover, both of them were strangers, and Lu Xunhuan didn’t even know them.

A middle-aged man, about forty years old.

There was also a young man, about twenty years old.

In the young man's hand, there was a demon beast's inner core.

As soon as Lu Xunhuan saw it, he naturally knew the other party's intention.

After the two stopped in front of Lu Xunhuan, the middle-aged man said, "I am Cheng Mo, one of the eight elders of Qingfeng Sect."

Lu Xun Huan stood up and saluted: "Hello, Elder Cheng Mo."

Cheng Mo said, "You saw it too. He has the demon beast's inner elixir in his hand. If you don't want to teach us the method, then help him break through. He will stay here, and his life is in your hands."

After saying this, he turned around, returned to the cave entrance, leaned against the rune barrier, silently recited the mantra, and disappeared.

After Elder Cheng Mo left, the disciple bowed to Lu Xunhuan and said, "Master Lu, please."

He opened his mouth and swallowed the inner core of the monster.

After a while, he fell to the ground, holding his abdomen. The pain made his face turn pale quickly.

After a while, the clothes were soaked with sweat.

Lu Xunhuan watched silently for a while and sighed in his heart.

He said to the disciple, "I want to help you, yes, but I have to knock you out. Do you agree? If you agree, I will help you. If you don't agree, I won't care about you anymore."

The disciple gasped, "As long as you're willing to help, go ahead."

Lu Xunhuan walked over, squatted down behind him, raised his hand, and hit him on the back of the head.

The disciple's eyes went dark and he knew nothing.

Lu Xunhuan knocked him unconscious, then took out the golden hoop wrapped in cloth, turned his back to the cave entrance, and tried to block it as much as possible to prevent anyone from suddenly breaking in.

Then, he inserted the golden hoop into the disciple's dantian.

When the disciple woke up, the day had passed and it was already dark.

He opened his eyes and the first thing he felt was that his body was no longer in pain.

Then, he felt that his strength had increased.

He quickly got up, took a deep breath, and circulated his Qi around the meridians, only then did he confirm that he had truly broken through to the Tengyun Realm.

He opened his eyes with great joy: "Master Lu, your method is truly miraculous."

Lu Xunhuan said calmly, "Go away."

The disciple stood up, cupped his hands, and bowed deeply to him: "Thank you, Master Lu, for your great kindness."

After the disciple left, only an incense stick of time passed before runes flashed and two more people appeared in the cave.

This time, two women came.

One woman was in her forties, the other about twenty-four or twenty-five.

The woman in her forties said, "I'm He Yi, one of the Qingfeng Sect's elders, Lu Xunhuan. No matter what method you used, you helped us after all. On behalf of all the disciples, I thank you."

Lu Xun Huan asked, "One just left and another one came. Aren't you going to let me sleep?"

He Yi smiled slightly and said, "I see you're not sleepy. I'll leave the person to you. I'm leaving now."

After Elder Heyi left, the female disciple sat down in front of Lu Xunhuan: "You will definitely help me, right?"

Lu Xunhuan said, "If you're worried, you can leave."

The female disciple shook her head: "No, I won't leave. You know, I've been stuck in the ninth level of the Qin Heart Realm for five years. I can't go any higher, and I don't dare to try the method of obtaining the inner elixir of the demon beast. I'm almost in despair."

She pulled out a demon beast's inner core from her bosom, opened her mouth, and swallowed it. "I heard that you wanted to knock someone unconscious in order to prevent the secret from being revealed. You better be careful not to kill me."

After a while, she rolled on the ground, in pain like a shrimp in boiling water, her body hunched over, as if she could never straighten up again.

Lu Xunhuan walked behind her, put his hands on her shoulders, and hit her on the back of the head.
