Ephemeral clouds and works

Chapter 880: Ominous Aura

    

the momentum to kick another Star Pirate out of the encircling group. Finally, he and Lianyi stood back-to-back and began sweeping through the surrounding mechs."The road ahead is fraught with peril....After receiving the original body's memories, Ripples frowned and said:

This Yun Ruibin is not a good person. He didn't completely refuse the original body before because the Sect Master's daughter, his future Dao companion, was very helpful to him. Only after he met a female cultivator he truly admired did he slowly tear away the mask of pretense.

The millstone nodded in agreement.

He's right, he didn't just act on impulse. Though Du Le pretended to be pitiful, Yun Ruibin wanted to take advantage of the situation for his own benefit.

That's why he chose to report the original body when the sect master was away. He just wanted to warn the original body, make the original body admit his mistakes, and then compensate by giving some cultivation resources. Ideally, before the sect master returned, he would have made the matter concrete.

It's also a way to establish his image as an upright and impartial eldest brother, so that no one can openly say he's wrong.

"Heh, you fool!"

Ripple said disdainfully.

"At first glance, it seems like his cultivation isn't deep enough. However, this outburst is a good thing in its own way; at least the Sect Master won't meticulously cultivate him as the successor anymore."

Liàn Yī rubbed his fingers and said.

"Definitely! Besides, that Du Li is just pretending anyway."

The stone mill immediately spoke.

"Expand on that."

"The original body was a young girl who grew up in a greenhouse. She thought about making Du Liedi's foundation building fail, and as the gap in cultivation level widened, the two of them would naturally not be able to be together anymore. So she buried a scattered spirit formation in Du Liedi's foundation-building cave."

This spirit dispersal array and gathering spirit array have effects that are exactly opposite. At the crucial stage of foundation building, spiritual energy disperses, so you can imagine the consequences.

When Duluo discovered that her foundation building had failed, she immediately suspected someone was interfering. Her first thought went to Qiao Lianyi. Therefore, she forcefully dispersed six levels of her cultivation, making herself a vulnerable victim.

Then, it provoked sympathy from Yun Ru Bin and the support of some uninformed individuals, wanting to completely discredit Qiao Lian Yi. After all, the other party was the sect leader's daughter, so she couldn't directly attack her, so she pushed Yun Ru Bin out instead.

Yun Ru Bin also had other thoughts in mind. He felt that with his position in his junior sister's heart, she would definitely admit her mistake and make amends, resolving the issue amicably. Even if their master returned, he wouldn't be overly harsh on him.

But this time, Qiao Lianyi refused to cooperate. Because Du Le's cultivation had regressed, it wasn't her doing, so she refused to admit it. The situation immediately came to a standstill, and the matter was put on hold. I took advantage of this opportunity and sent you over."

The stone mill explained with a hint of pride.

What is the original body's wish

First, kill those two scumbags. Second, prevent the sect from falling into the same fate as last time. Third, cultivate diligently and ascend to the Spirit Realm.

Shiju scratched the screen in front of him and immediately said.

Actually, she could have come by herself.

The resentment of the original body was too heavy, it had gone deep into her soul. She didn't want to face these two people, afraid that when she saw them again, she couldn't help but take action and fall back into a passive state.

> In her past life, she always felt that there was something strange about the two people's auras. They could always escape at the right time. She wasn't confident that she could kill them, so she took on this mission.

"I understand, I know the task details, and the rest is left to me. I'll make sure she gets over her anger quickly."

Ripple smiled mischievously.

"Well, that Du Led was indeed quite extraordinary. She wasn't a reborn soul nor a transmigrator, and she didn't have divine favor either. It was just her incredibly strange luck. Just be careful yourself."

The millstone still dutifully reminded him.

"I understand."

After that, the two cut off contact.

Only now did Lian Yi look inwards at her original body. Because she had eaten only spiritual creatures since she was young, there was basically no impurities in her body. The original owner had only taken a foundation-building pill during the foundation-building stage, which made her feel somewhat disapproving.

Qiao Lianyi is a single-attribute wood cultivator, with excellent spiritual root aptitude. However, her cultivation speed is somewhat slow, which is still due to her abundant resources. While she appears faster than inner sect disciples, in reality, it is built up with spirit stones.

Qiao Lianyi has a hidden spiritual root, the wind spirit root, which is a mutated form of the wood spirit root. Therefore, cultivating the wood spirit root is beneficial to her wind spirit root cultivation, but not significantly so.

Besides, the cultivation method she practiced didn't suit her own spiritual root, so her cultivation progress was very slow. This situation would become even more obvious after the Golden Core stage, which is why Du ultimately surpassed her despite having a Five Spiritual Roots.

"Goodness gracious, Master Qiao is truly an incompetent father."

Lián Yī shook her head.

She carefully sifted through the memories of her original body and then discovered that when the original body was tested for spiritual roots, Qiao Lianyi's sect leader father was actually absent. Only Yun Ruibin accompanied the original body.

If that's the case, then Yun Ruibin, that scoundrel, must have concealed the fact that the original body possessed a Feng Ling root. Although the original body was intelligent, he was only five years old at the time and hadn't started cultivating, so it was perfectly normal for him not to know about the existence of hidden spiritual roots.

After that, Yun Ruibin took care of the original body's cultivation. That patriarch father was really bold, letting his disciple take over his daughter's cultivation. He didn't even say much about taking care of her on a daily basis, and he wouldn't even occasionally test her.

This trace of spiritual root will be completely lost if it is not cultivated after the age of twenty, and it will hinder the progress of the original body's cultivation. She would thus be stuck at the Nascent Soul stage.

After the ripples cleared, Lian Yi stood up and walked two steps. She sensed her power following behind her. Her cultivation had also caught up, but due to the limitations of the original body, it was still at the Foundation Building stage. However, her current Foundation Building stage was incomparable to the original owner's.

Ripples directly practiced a set of punches, allowing her current body to better grasp the divine power she brought. Afterward, she closed her eyes and sat in meditation on a rock, waiting for the return of her original owner, this cheap old man.

Two days later, Sect Master Qiao Qianshan returned to the sect. He was still very happy because he had secured fifty spots for Wu Yunzong to enter the Yuntian Secret Realm.

Five years later, the secret realm will open, and it will be open to disciples at the Foundation Establishment stage. Before that, he still needs to discuss the allocation of places with several elders.

only his smile vanished after hearing the Elder of Law Enforcement's report, he said calmly:

Since things have already become common knowledge, it's best to handle them as quickly as possible. The longer it drags on, the worse it gets.

"The sect leader's meaning is also ours. Before you returned, we investigated and there was no direct evidence to prove that the incident was done by Ripple. Only as for Bin..."

Eldest Elder Xiao of the Enforcement Hall also wore a troubled expression. After all, it was the sect master's eldest disciple who insisted on pursuing this matter, and they were helpless to intervene.et with a spell. The formation received the command and slowly began to sink. Every centimeter it sank, Ripples poured in more of her power. As her internal power flowed out rapidly, the entire format...
