Ch 291: Lingyan Holy Temple
The azure sky stretched out endlessly.
Xin Daoyuan brought Meng Liunian from the Mortal Realm into the Holy World.
Breathing in the abundant Spiritual Energy in the air, yet his cultivation didn’t increase in the slightest, Meng Liunian felt quite helpless.
Seeing this, Xin Daoyuan smiled and said, “Having arrived in the Holy World, you don’t seem very happy! Do you know how many people from various countries in the Mortal Realm want to enter the Holy World every year?”
“They don’t know that the struggle in the Holy World is a hundred times more cruel than in the Mortal Realm! Without strength here, one cannot escape the fate of being enslaved!” Meng Liunian said.
“Since you know this, why did you still let me bring that Xin Rong to the Holy World!”
“It’s nothing. He helped me, and I’m fulfilling his wish. It’s a favor!”
“Aren’t you afraid he’ll die here?”
“Everyone must be responsible for their own destiny. I can only give him an opportunity; I can’t give him anything else!”
“You see things very clearly!” Saying this, Xin Daoyuan looked at the mountains not far away and said, “We’ve arrived! Lingyan Holy Temple!”
“Do the Holy Temples have different names?”
“That’s natural. Lingyan Holy Temple is the Great Hall of the Lingyan Sect Leader, and I am a Saint under the Lingyan Holy Temple. Of course, above her are the Ancient Holy Hall Elders, and above the Ancient Holy Hall Elders are the Holy Temple Incense Masters. The Holy Temple is the master of Lan Chen Continent, and its ruling range is the entire Lan Chen Continent, within which there are countless Holy Temples. However, for nearly a thousand years, the Tianya Sea in the southwest of Lan Chen Continent has been occupied by a group calling themselves the Daoist Sect!”
“Daoist Sect, what kind of organization is that?” Meng Liunian asked.
“The Daoist Sect is a group of Demonic People. They act perversely and use any means necessary! They repeatedly harm our Holy Temple disciples! Every year, the Ancient Holy Hall requires the major Holy Temples to send people to Tianya Sea!”
The two chatted as they slowly descended onto the cloud platform of the Lingyan Holy Temple.
Here, clouds and mist swirled, like a fairyland, giving people a dreamlike feeling.
“This is the Lingyan Holy Temple. Know that within this Holy Temple, those below the Saint are strictly forbidden from flying. But today, with me bringing you along, you can naturally travel unhindered all the way! I’ll first take you around to familiarize yourself with the environment here. When the time is right, I will definitely help you remove the seal!” Before he finished speaking, he grabbed Meng Liunian and sped through every corner of the Lingyan Holy Temple like lightning.
They first passed a garden full of flowers, where colorful blossoms competed for beauty, emitting bursts of charming fragrance; then they crossed a crystal-clear stream, where fish swam and frolicked happily in the water; and they also flew up a towering mountain peak, overlooking the magnificent scenery of the entire Lingyan Holy Temple.
Before long, the two flew to an ancient Great Hall. This Great Hall was majestic and exuded a gloomy aura.
As soon as they landed, Xin Daoyuan began to introduce, “This is my Xin Yuan Hall, where I usually cultivate and handle affairs. In this Lingyan Holy Temple, every Saint has their own Great Hall. If someone can break through to the Hunyuan Realm, then the higher-ups will even allow them to open up a territory in the Holy World and establish a new Holy Temple in their own name.”
Hearing this, Meng Liunian only glanced at him faintly and said softly, “So, is this the real reason you abducted me here?” His voice was calm, and his tone was indifferent.
The corners of Xin Daoyuan’s mouth rose slightly, outlining a faint smile, and he said softly, “Little friend, it has been quite pleasant talking with you along the way. To be honest, I really don’t want to kill you.” His words seemed gentle, but a subtle cunning flashed in the depths of his eyes.
Hearing this, Meng Liunian also smiled lightly and responded, “Not wanting to kill doesn’t mean you won’t kill. Along the way, although you tried your best to hide your true intentions, the greed that you inadvertently revealed in the corners of your eyes has long exposed your true nature!” His gaze was as sharp as a sword, looking directly at Xin Daoyuan.
“Oh? I didn’t expect you to see through me. But it doesn’t matter. Originally, I planned to make you my sacrifice without anyone knowing, but now it seems that I can’t get my wish, so I’ll just tell you plainly!” Xin Daoyuan’s face instantly turned gloomy, and his voice was tinged with a hint of coldness.
“No matter what kind of excuse you make, you can’t hide your heart, which is as fierce as a jackal!” Meng Liunian rebuked.
“Humph!” Xin Daoyuan snorted coldly, shook his head, and said disdainfully, “Ah, sometimes being too smart is not a good thing!”
“This is innate, and I can’t change it!” Meng Liunian crossed his arms, looking calm.
“Good! Since things have come to this, then I won’t be polite anymore!” Before he finished speaking, Xin Daoyuan casually waved his hand, and the surrounding scenery suddenly underwent earth-shattering changes. In the blink of an eye, the two were in a dim Alchemy Room. The room was filled with a pungent medicinal smell, surrounded by various strange Alchemy Furnaces and bottles, and the flickering candlelight on the walls made the entire room appear particularly eerie.
“This is where I refine the Grade Five Pill, Extreme Yang Spirit Pill. I have already prepared the Spiritual Medicine for refining, ‘Thousand-Year Mysterious Spirit Grass, Ten-Thousand-Year Ancient Moon Branch, Wangxin Fruit…’, these are all excellent Spirit Materials, plus your Extreme Yang Primordial Spirit, I am 50% sure to refine the Extreme Yang Spirit Pill. As long as I have this Pill, it is just around the corner for this old man to break through to Hunyuan!”
Saying this, he pointed at Meng Liunian.
The huge Alchemy Furnace in the Alchemy Room quickly opened. Meng Liunian’s body involuntarily flew into it.
“Kid, this furnace of Extreme Yin Spirit Dew is a treasure to help you refine Extreme Yang Spiritual Liquid. You can absorb it with peace of mind!” Xin Daoyuan said with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, the Spirit Dew in the furnace frantically poured into Meng Liunian’s body, constantly increasing his cultivation.
“Kid, don’t waste it. I will raise your cultivation to Foundation Establishment Peak, and then integrate it into the Spiritual Medicine. The Extreme Yang Spiritual Liquid refined with your Physical Body will definitely help me break through! Don’t even think about escaping!”
“Humph, a mere Grade Five Alchemy Furnace can refine me? You can try!” Meng Liunian said.
At this time, it was impossible to escape. This guy had injected countless Talismans into his body along the way, presumably waiting for him to break through to the Late Foundation Establishment Stage to forcibly detonate his Physical Body.
Xin Daoyuan smiled, “You are quick with your tongue, and you see things clearly!” Saying this, he pointed at the Alchemy Furnace, and the Extreme Yin Spirit Dew in the furnace merged into Meng Liunian’s body even faster.
Three days later, Xin Daoyuan introduced all the Extreme Yin Spirit Dew in the furnace into his body.
Meng Liunian’s cultivation also reached the peak of the Mid-Foundation Establishment Stage from the Early Foundation Establishment Stage.
Seeing that he had absorbed so much Extreme Yin Spirit Dew and still hadn’t broken through to the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, Xin Daoyuan became even more excited. “The more Extreme Yin Spirit Dew you can accommodate, the more Extreme Yang Spiritual Liquid you can refine, and the higher the success rate of the Extreme Yang Spirit Pill.”
He excitedly took out a large amount of Spirit Dew from his Storage Ring and poured it into the furnace again.
Just then, an Azure Jade Slip suddenly appeared in the Alchemy Room.
Xin Daoyuan took the Jade Slip and placed it on his brow, then left the Alchemy Furnace in a huff.
At this time, Meng Liunian in the furnace had his stomach bloated by a large amount of Extreme Yin Spirit Dew, and he couldn’t even stand up. But his cultivation was sealed, so he could do nothing about it.
The Extreme Yin Spirit Dew in the furnace continued to be absorbed into his body. At this time, in his Divine Sea, the Golden Primordial Spirit absorbed so much Extreme Yin Spirit Dew that it was already the size of a child. The perception of Divine Sense had increased several times, but the Talismans on his body had become even more numerous.
