The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple

Chapter 1130 343: So This Is the Truth Behind Everything!

This proposal indeed made his heart flutter."Joining forces, our odds are quite high." Sikong Yan's gaze was fervent, "Tell me, do you dare?"

Zhou Qing took a deep breath and did not answer immediately.

This matter was of great significance, and he needed time to weigh the pros and cons.

Sikong Yan did not urge him when he saw this. Instead, he relaxedly leaned back against the chair: "You and I are essentially the same kind of people, both madmen."

"You not only completed the five thousand spirit seals well ahead of schedule but exceeded it greatly. Although I don't know what you've experienced..."

He smiled meaningfully, "I know you're even crazier than I am!"

Saying this, he pushed a cyan jade communication talisman in front of Zhou Qing: "I'm giving you time to consider, after all, we have plenty of time, and I also need to make some preparations."

"Once you've decided, you can contact me anytime." He paused and added, "If the Nangong family troubles you, I can also rush to help."

As he got up to leave, Sikong Yan dropped a final word: "By the way, let me tell you, breaking through Spirit Severing can extend life by six thousand years, which is four thousand more than Divinity Transformation."

"Don't you want your master and the others to accompany you for another four thousand years? Otherwise, in two or three hundred years, they will reach the end of their life..."

Before his words fell, his figure had already vanished like smoke in the tea house.

Zhou Qing sat alone at the spot, his brow tightly knit.

Looking in the direction where Sikong Yan disappeared, he had already made his decision in his heart.

"What a complete madman!" he muttered softly.

Yet within his chest, an uncontrollable excitement surged.

After confirming with [Daily Reflection] that there was nothing wrong with the communication talisman, he stood up and walked out of the tea house.

...

"Don't worry, he's gone!" Zhou Qing spoke to the approaching Ghost Mastiff and Luo Lingling.

Luo Lingling instinctively tucked the old hen she was holding further in, and said through a voice transmission, "That Sikong Yan has been crazy since he was in the Eastern Domain, cooperating with him is like seeking skin from a tiger."

Ghost Mastiff also frowned in agreement: "Besides, he is now at the Spirit Severing Realm. During the battle of the Five Sects, the three of us slaughtered quite a few people from Cangyan Daoist Palace."

Zhou Qing's gaze lingered on the two of them for a long time.

Though Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Sister were at Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, with solid foundations, at most they could aspire to Divine Transformation Perfection.

The Spirit Severing Realm was still out of reach for them.

He didn't want to see them taking risks to sever their spirits in the future, ending up with their bodies and souls destroyed or, like Lu Yuanjiu, becoming neither human nor ghost.

What worried him even more was Third Senior Brother.

The limit of the Earth Vein Foundation Establishment destined him to halt at the Divinity Transformation Realm, or even Nascent Soul Great Perfection.

Although Third Senior Brother always seemed carefree, busy making money to support the master, Zhou Qing knew it was just a pretense.

If not to fulfill their three, why would Third Senior Brother choose to "take things lying down"?

If possible, he also wanted Third Senior Brother to take that step.

None of them should be left behind.

"Don't worry, I have my own measure." He smiled broadly, hiding all his thoughts.

The two of them had nothing more to say, and Ghost Mastiff could only ask, "What do you plan to do next?"

Zhou Qing looked at the spirit stones in the storage bag.

According to previous deductions, to condense nine thousand spirit seals, he needed forty wood attribute spirit stones and a year's time for comprehension.

Now that resources were ample, it was an excellent time to retreat into seclusion.

Moreover, there were two successive attempts aimed at the secret technique, making success extremely difficult.

He must seize every moment to enhance his strength—especially the move that fused Thunder and the array spirit seal; the number of spirit seals directly determined the strength of the power.

"I'm preparing to go into seclusion again." Zhou Qing declared resolutely.

They exchanged glances and nodded in unison.

Currently, the Imperial City was a place of treacherous intrigue, with powers from all sides currying favor with "Mr. Ji," and who knew how many Spirit Severing experts were lurking in the shadows.

A temporary retreat was indeed a wise choice.

Moreover, the top-grade spirit stones shared by Old Fourth were enough to keep them cultivating earnestly for a while.

"You and Eldest Brother go first, I'll hold the rear." Luo Lingling whispered and reassuringly patted the old hen in her arms.

Zhou Qing was amused yet understood Second Senior Sister's concerns.

The three immediately split up and dashed towards the outer city.

After finding a new secluded spot, Zhou Qing delicately infused the wood attribute spirit stones into the Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree's array.

A month later, when the familiar ethereal atmosphere suffused once more, his figure had already immersed in the tranquil chamber for his seclusion...

...

Taiqing Sect!

It had been five years since Zhou Qing left!

Today, above the residence of the core disciples at Divine Peak, spiritual qi surged, clouds and rosy mists gathered, and an overwhelming pressure roiled in all directions!

Lu Yaoyao sat cross-legged in the center of the Cave Mansion, spiritual light swirling around her, her aura climbing steadily.

Her eyes closed tightly, a brilliant divine light burst from the center of her brow, piercing straight into the sky!

"Boom——"

The heavens trembled, and an enormous primordial spirit phantom, identical to her real body, slowly condensed, hanging high above the sky, majestic and grand, like a deity descending upon the world!

"The formation of the primordial spirit, the Divinity Transformation is complete!"

In the distance, Taiqing Sect Leader Cao Zhengyang stood with hands behind his back, eyes filled with gratification.

Beside him, He Han and four other senior brothers looked up at the towering primordial spirit phantom, both shocked and envious.

"Old Six entered the sect the latest, yet she became the second after Eldest Senior Brother to achieve Divinity Transformation." He Han said with a bitter smile, "We have truly wasted our years."

The four looked at each other, their faces full of shame.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Several sounds of breaking through the air were heard, as Mo Xingjian and the other peak masters within the sect rushed over, hovering in mid-air to witness this scene.
