Section 42: The Method of Smelting Horcruxes
From here we go to Xianyun Peak, more than 800 miles away. At dawn and dusk, the colorful clouds have not dispersed.
Wei Shiqi followed the rules and paid a visit to Deng Yuantong, the acting head of the Immortal City. Now that he was a generation older, he could match his fellow apprentices. There was no longer any barrier between them, but they were also more polite. Wei Shiqi thinks this is good. He is not a nostalgic person. Time has changed and nothing remains unchanged. On Xianyun Peak, the only person he really cares about is Qin Zhen. As for the others, he only has some old friendship left behind. Enough.
Deng Yuantong was much calmer than before after moving his Qi and cultivating his body. The two exchanged a few words. Deng Yuantong talked about the trivial matters on Xianyun Peak over the years. Senior brother Xun Ye still couldn't come out of seclusion. Wei Songyun guided his disciples in the back mountain, benefiting the Immortal Capital. Xin Laoyao and Qin Zhen's cultivation bases have improved rapidly, and they have all broken through the sword-controlling pass. Among the trial disciples, three are quite talented and are expected to be promoted to the inner sect... Reciprocity is reciprocated, and Wei Shiqi is also patient. Let’s talk about some gossip on Flowing Stone Peak to liven up the atmosphere.
After talking on the phone and drinking a few cups of tea, Deng Yuantong began to cut to the chase, vaguely mentioning the letter and asking if it was the leader’s intention for Feiyu Sect to merge into Five Elements Sect. Wei Shiqi thought for a while and nodded vaguely. Pu Tianwei will succeed Taoist Ziyang and become the next head of Kunlun. The integration of the direct line and side branches is the general trend. If you go with it, you will prosper, if you go against it... No one knows what will happen to the immortals. Generally speaking, it doesn't matter whether you stand on Pu Tianwei's side or not. What's important is not to block his way. But this meaning cannot be explained to Deng Yuantong, but can only be hinted at.
Deng Yuantong looked at his former nephew and now junior brother, feeling a little sad
. He had very few opportunities to deal with Wei Shiqi. He remembered that the first time was at Tiandu Peak, when he drove the spirit of the Blue Iron Queen Bee into his body and swallowed the erysipelas left by the Beauty Python, and the second time was at Wuxie Waterfall. , Wei Shiqi defeated the iron-fronted cavalry, forcing Qi Gu to swear an oath to restrain the Gao Yantuo tribe. After returning from the town customs, he presented a calming jade ring. The third time he took the initiative to summon Wei Shiqi to wipe out the miasma Ye Lin. For the dragon incident, he compensated him with three black gold mines. At that time, he stood out from the master competition and entered the Hidden Sword Garden to choose the Hidden Snow Sword, which won the favor of Xi Huzi. Now this is the fourth time. He is now the direct descendant of Kunlun Sword Controlling Sect. The disciple of the master, the nephew of the master, chatted and laughed with a group of elders and sect masters.
Every time I see him, I am impressed.
Wei Shiqi saw that he was deep in thought, as if he wanted to see off a guest, and suddenly remembered something and said: "Brother, I heard that the Soul Capturing Jue was passed down from the Southern Barbarian Soul Fighting Sect, and it can be divided into inner and outer volumes. "Is it true?"
Deng Yuantong was stunned for a moment and said: "It is indeed true. The magic spells recorded in the outer volume are widely circulated. There are jade slips in Penglai Palace. Junior brother, you have also learned them. The Recorded Sword Technique was handed down by the master and kept secret. What Brother Yu practiced was the Soul-Spelling Sword Technique."
"Is there a method for smelting soul weapons at the end of the inner volume?"
< p>Deng Yuantong shook his head and said: "It's lost. In fact, the sword technique passed down by the master is not complete. It is missing the most important thing."The last few pages may have fallen into the hands of Qi Du of the Pingyuan faction. "Wei Shiqi remembered that during the winter hunting in Jietian Ridge, Sun Ergou worked hard to steal the white snake eggs. When they were discussing swords in Chixia Valley, the python bone whip in his hand seemed to have been re-refined, and its power was Multiplied, the human bones at the head of the whip had three more shadows, and it was very strange. Deng Yuantong's speculation was not unreasonable. It was obvious that Qi Du was familiar with the method of smelting Horcruxes.
Deng Yuantong thought for a moment and felt that there was no need to hide it. He immediately said: "The relationship between Xiandu and Pingyuan has always been at odds, and they were not at odds with each other originally. It was only many years ago that master and Qidu suddenly turned against each other, and this led to their enmity. The master didn't mention the reason. I heard... I just heard that the inner volume of the Soul Capturing Technique was originally discovered by Master and Qi Du in an abandoned cave. Unexpectedly, people's hearts are full of ghosts, and Qi Du suddenly became greedy. Nian, intending to monopolize the sword technique, secretly launched a sneak attack, but was defeated by the master, who only grabbed a few pages at the end of the volume on how to smelt soul weapons, and fled. The master stayed in bed for many years because of this, and later obtained the power of the Black Heart Lotus. It was not until the sword discussion in Chixia Valley that the hidden injury was cured. "
" Qi Du was hit by Master's sword energy and was seriously injured. He disappeared in those years and rarely fought with others, which must be related to this. Later, I heard that he went to Laoya Ridge to collect medicine and was approached by an enemy. There was a fierce battle between the two sides. Qi Du tried his best to kill the opponent. After a few years, he recovered from his injuries and improved his cultivation. He probably got something from that enemy. benefit. "
The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. When Wei Shiqi heard the three words "Lao Yaling", his pupils shrank and he narrowed his eyes slightly. He asked calmly: "When was that? thing? ”
“Almost twenty years. "
Wei Shiqi counted the time and found that his father was hit on the head by a flying stone. It was exactly nineteen years ago. He couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth and reveal a weird smile.
p>Deng Yuantong didn’t notice anything strange about him, “If junior brother wants to learn the Soul-Absorbing Sword Art, it’s okay for Brother Yu to teach it to you. It’s just that the Kunlun Sword Art is unparalleled in the world, and there are few who can do it better than the Soul-Absorbing Sword Art. How about you? Why sacrifice the near for the far? "
Wei Shiqi knew that he was showing his goodwill, and smiled and said: "Brother, I also know that I have an iron rod, which is of mediocre quality and is easier to use. I barely managed to catch a monster in Jietian Ridge before. It was a pity that it was bent. I wanted to refine it again and turn the iron rod into a Horcrux. "
Deng Yuantong nodded and said: "If junior brother can get the method of smelting soul weapons from Qi Du, you might as well come to Bai Zang Palace. Brother Yu has been in charge of Bai Zang Palace for many years and is good at forging swords and refining weapons. Have experience. "
"If there is a chance, please come back and ask me for help. "
The two chatted again. Wei Shiqi said goodbye to Deng Yuantong, left Changyingguan, and headed for Yingzui Rock.
