Chapter 531: Ancestor Shayue
Generally speaking, such treasures are not something that Situ Bo, a mere outer disciple of the Shinto Sect, dares to dream of.
But he not only dared to think about it, but he even did it!
About a hundred years ago, before he came to the Central Plains, he was the head of the Shayue Sect in the Small South Realm.
A hundred years ago, in the battle between the Shayue Sect and the Jinxuan Sect, he survived by chance and secretly came to the Central Plains.
After hanging around in the Central Plains for many years, he was finally able to join the Shinto Sect. Although he was only an outer disciple, the resources he could obtain were far beyond what he had in the Small South Realm.
However, even so, he only cultivated to the early stage of the Spiritual Sea Realm in a hundred years.
On the one hand, this was due to his limited qualifications.
In addition, it was also because his body had a root of disease left in that battle.
He knew that if there was no great opportunity, he would probably stop at the Spiritual Sea Realm in this life.
And the Wanhua Pure Lotus was his opportunity.
With the magical effect of the Wanhua Pure Lotus, not only could the root of his body's disease be completely cured, but it would also make it countless times easier for him to break through to the Spiritual Life Realm and give birth to his true form.
You know, the Wanhua Pure Lotus is pure and flawless, and is one of the few treasures in the world that is most suitable to become the source of the true form.
Ever since he accidentally learned that there was a Wanhua Pure Lotus in the Yongling Valley of Xiaonan Realm, he began to think about it and prepared to seek the Wanhua Pure Lotus.
Taking advantage of the fact that the Shinto Sect was about to send people to inspect Xiaonan Realm and open the Yongling Valley once every ten years, he sneaked back to Xiaonan Realm in advance and secretly returned to the Shayue Sect as the ancestor of Shayue.
Afterwards, he secretly arranged a plan to sacrifice the Wanhua Pure Lotus with blood to force it to ripen, and gave his own spiritual treasure, the Heavenly Bowl, to the leading disciple Lu Si.
In order to ensure that there was no mistake, he even risked being discovered by the Shinto disciples, changed his appearance, and personally led the team to the Yongling Valley.
It was outside the Yongling Valley that he saw Duan Qing for the first time.
He had deduced the plan of blood sacrifice to ripen the Wanhua Pure Lotus many times, and felt that the possibility of success was extremely high.
Who would have thought that when it was actually implemented, an accident still happened.
It was unknown what happened in Yongling Valley, and all the disciples of Shayue Sect, including the leader Lu Si, died.
Even the Shinto disciple Xue Gongzi who entered Yongling Valley later, was trapped in Yongling Valley.
This incident basically ruined his plan to obtain the Wanhua Jinglian.
Although Jinxuan Sect Qingchen Zhenren, who entered Yongling Valley with Xue Gongzi to rescue people, successfully escaped with two surviving Jinxuan Sect disciples and his female apprentice.
But he did not think that Wanhua Jinglian was on them.
First, with Xue Gongzi there, they would not have the chance to get Wanhua Jinglian.
Second, according to the content of the communication between Qingchen Zhenren and his disciples that he had overheard before, the two Jinxuan Sect disciples did not get Wanhua Jinglian.
However, with the mentality of killing the wrong person rather than letting him go, he still secretly took action on the way back to Jinxuan Sect, and secretly explored the storage equipment of all people, including Qingchen Zhenren, without Jinxuan Sect’s group noticing.
As he expected, the Wanhua Jinglian was not in the hands of Jinxuan Sect.
In view of this, and because Yu Ya returned to the Central Plains for help, he was afraid that his identity would be exposed, so he had to return to the Central Plains in a hurry.
Yu Ya was Mu Yu's disciple. It was self-evident who would come to Xiaonanjie when he returned to the Shinto Sect for help.
Mu Yu was one of the three law enforcement elders of the Shinto Sect, and his cultivation was unfathomable!
With his spiritual sea realm cultivation, he might be able to run rampant in Xiaonanjie, but in front of Mu Yu, there was absolutely only one way to die.
Therefore, he did not dare to stay in Xiaonanjie for a long time.
After returning to the Shinto Sect, he was basically desperate for Wanhua Jinglian.
Not to mention whether Wanhua Jinglian was destroyed in the incident, even if it was not, Mu Yu came in person, and Wanhua Jinglian would not fall into the hands of others.
But when he saw Duan Qing and Xue Wanyun in Feiyunduanchang Street Market not long ago, a trace of hope for Wanhua Jinglian was rekindled in his heart.
At first, he didn't recognize Duan Qing. After all, it had been a long time since the incident, and Duan Qing had changed a lot since then.
But seeing Xue Wanyun, who looked very similar to Master Xue, suddenly brought back his memory and he recognized Duan Qing.
He thought Duan Qing had died in Yongling Valley, but he didn't expect that Duan Qing was still alive and even joined the Shinto Sect.
His cultivation had also made a leap from the Qi training stage to the questioning state.
This made him excited all of a sudden.
Although he couldn't be sure whether the Wanhua Pure Lotus was in Duan Qing's hands, the matter was of great importance, so he had to take a risk anyway.
However, the current situation was different from the past. He found out that Duan Qing was actually a disciple of Mu Yu, which made him dare not act rashly.
However, perhaps God was also blessing him. When he and Liu Yuanji entered the secret realm of Shuangsheng Temple and found Duan Qing following behind, God knew how excited he was.
This was simply a godsend!
Compared to the Wanhua Pure Lotus that might be in Duan Qing's body, the treasures in the secret realm of Shuangsheng Temple were not worth mentioning in his eyes.
That's why he played along with Duan Qing after seeing through his lies.
Because he was afraid that if he exposed Duan Qing on the spot, the situation would be impossible to end, and then he might start fighting, resulting in being trapped in the secret realm of Shuangsheng Temple.
In that case, even if he got the Wanhua Pure Lotus, it would be meaningless.
After leaving the secret realm of Shuangsheng Temple, he had no scruples and immediately attacked Duan Qing who came out later.
This had nothing to do with whether Duan Qing was possessed. In fact, for the Wanhua Pure Lotus, even if Duan Qing was really possessed, he would not hesitate to do it.
Duan Qing stared at Situ Bo for a long time without making a sound, and couldn't figure out why Situ Bo knew that the Wanhua Pure Lotus was in his hand.
Although he didn't know the reason, he knew very well that since Situ Bo had revealed the Wanhua Pure Lotus, he would not care about his identity as Mu Yu's apprentice.
At this moment, it was a situation of life and death!
Duan Qing secretly groaned in his heart.
In his current state, it would be good if he could use the sword technique at half the speed of his prime, and he probably couldn't escape.
And if he forced a fight, he would probably win less and lose more.
Even if he still had the gourd sword that could influence the situation of the battle, he could only use it once in a short period of time.
If he missed the attack, or if Situ Bo could resist the sword energy of the gourd sword, then he would be completely passive.
After weighing the pros and cons, Duan Qing made a decision.
First deal with Situ Bo and find an opportunity to use the gourd sword.
As long as the sword energy of the gourd sword hits Situ Bo, even if he doesn't die, he will be seriously injured.
At that time, there will be more room for maneuver to fight or stay.
Thinking of this, Duan Qing immediately controlled the golden light shield and switched to a virtual state, then performed the sword control technique, and the red spirit sword in his hand shot straight at Situ Bo like an arrow from a string.
Seeing the red spirit sword coming, Situ Bo did not intend to hide.
His eyes calmly swept over the golden bowl hanging above Duan Qing's head, which was constantly scattering golden light and maintaining the golden light shield.
