Chapter 620 Dragon Beard
"That kid is really interesting. Not only is his talent in the soul path amazing, he also has such a strange physique."
Duan Zhengwen nodded.
"It's not in vain that I gave him that soul treasure."
After finishing speaking, he seemed a little hesitant, paused for a while, and then whispered:
"Ancestor, I would like to ask, is the soul of the fish master ancestor really in that soul-nurturing tree?"
"have no idea?"
The old man with a long beard is Master Longxu, the ancestor of the Spiritual Medicine Sect. He has lived for more than 2,800 years.
All in all, he can live for another two hundred years or so.
He is one of the most powerful people in the human race today.
"Back then, when the Master Fish Master gave me the soul-nurturing tree, he just told me."
"When a soul genius appears in the sect, give him the soul-nurturing tree."
"Nothing else was said."
Having said this, Master Longbeard sighed softly.
"At that time, I didn't think much about it. I just followed the Master Fish Master's instructions and dealt with the soul-nurturing tree."
"But then something inexplicable happened."
"That's what made me suspect that when the ancestor of the fish owner gave me the piece of wood, he had secretly put a bit of his soul into the soul-nurturing wood."
"What happened next?"
Duan Zhengwen couldn't help but be curious.
"Speaking of which, those things are also weird."
"This is not the first time I have given away the soul-nurturing wood."
Master Longbeard shook his head as he spoke.
The long beard immediately began to float in the room without any wind.
It really looks a bit like a few dragon whiskers fluttering.
"Before you became the sect leader, the soul-nurturing wood had been given away three times."
"They were all given to the soul geniuses in the sect at that time."
"However, what I didn't expect is,"
Master Longbeard also had a hint of confusion in his eyes.
"Not long after, those people all sent the soul-raising wood back to me."
"Why is that?"
Duan Zhengwen was also very curious.
"Is there anything bad about that soul-nurturing tree?"
"no,"
Dragon Beard began to shake his head again.
Long beards fluttering!
"When the three of them came to me with the wood, they didn't even recognize the soul-raising wood."
"They have even forgotten that that piece of wood was given to them by me.
"Forgot? How could this happen?"
Duan Zhengwen was completely confused.
"The most interesting thing is that after the three people found me, their words were surprisingly similar."
"It's all about accidentally picking up a piece of wood outside."
"I found that thing to be extremely hard, but I didn't recognize it."
"The three of them all thought that it should be a spiritual material. Then they brought it over to me and asked me to help identify it."
Duan Zhengwen couldn't help but shake his head, feeling a little incredible.
"When I saw that situation, I was shocked, so I could only lie to them and say that the piece of wood was a formation material."
"Then, I spent some spiritual stones to buy that piece of wood."
"There is such a thing!"
"It's really a bit baffling!"
Duan Zhengwen was also a little surprised.
"It should be a relatively advanced soul technique to make them forget those things completely."
"I remember that it is recorded in the genealogy that the ancestor of the fish master from three thousand years ago happened to be a dual cultivator of soul and soul."
"Could it be that it's his old man?"
Duan Zhengwen couldn't help but guess.
"My thoughts are similar to yours."
Master Longbeard nodded, with a strange expression on his face.
"That's why I think that there is actually a soul hidden in that soul-nurturing tree."
"The most likely possibility is that the ancestor of the fish master let his soul enter the soul-nurturing tree before he passed away."
"Then, he used soul magic to make those people completely forget those things."
Speaking of this, Master Longxu stroked his beard.
"But I don't understand why he asked me to send the soul-nurturing wood away. Not long after, he used soul magic to make those people return obediently."
"After much thought, I can only surmise that he was not very satisfied with those people."
"That's why I used soul magic to erase the memories of those people and let them take their things and return to me."
"I didn't expect that a trace of the fish master's ancestor's soul could be so powerful."
Duan Zhengwen couldn't help but sigh!
"But why did the ancestor of the fish master leave a trace of his soul in the divine soul tree?"
"well!"
Ancestor Longbeard sighed.
"I don't know about this either."
"Maybe the old man didn't want to completely lose his soul, so he deliberately kept a trace of his soul in the world for the future,"
"future,"
He said "the future" twice in a row, but he hesitated and did not continue.
Duan Zhengwen already understood.
"Ancestor, you are saying that the purpose of the fish owner ancestor is to prepare for the future. After finding a suitable partner, he will -"
"Seize the body and be reborn!"
When he said that sentence, Duan Zhengwen's expression changed a little!
Seizing a body is a recognized evil technique in the spiritual world. In any sect, it is written in the sect rules and is explicitly prohibited!
"Logically speaking, Master Fish Master shouldn't do such unscrupulous things!"
"The ancestor of the fish master back then was the person who loved the younger generation the most in the sect."
"Even I received a lot of benefits from him back then."
"He is kind and amiable, generous and open-minded. He has always been a good man in the world of cultivation."
"But,"
Speaking of this, the beard of the Dragon Beard Master suddenly paused.
"When a person reaches the end of his life, he can do anything."
"In the past two thousand years, I have seen too many such things."
"So, when he is about to die, I dare not speculate what he is thinking!"
"I can only say,"
"Don't rule out that possibility."
Duan Zhengwen was a little stunned.
After a long while, he said something with some regret.
"If that's the case, then,"
"If I give that piece of wood to that kid, wouldn't it harm Qin Shaochen!"
The Dragon Beard Master couldn't help but cough twice, and looked at Duan Zhengwen with a little dissatisfaction.
He stroked his beard twice slowly, letting it flutter again, and then slowly spoke.
"Zhengwen, the reason why I chose you as the leader among so many Jindan is because you are able to see the big picture and have foresight!"
"But sometimes, you are a little emotional."
"You must always remember that you are the leader of a big sect."
"At any time, the interests of the sect should be the most important. Don't mix too much personal feelings in some small matters."
"Yes!"
Duan Zhengwen reacted immediately.
His face became serious and he immediately stood up from the futon.
He bowed respectfully to Longxu Shangren.
"Duan Zhengwen understands what the ancestor means, and he knows he is wrong."
"Just now I was soft-hearted and didn't know the importance of the matter."
"Zhengwen is not talented, but I am willing to listen to the ancestor's teachings!"
Longxu Shangren nodded slightly with satisfaction.
He was also very unceremonious and began to teach.
"Possession is not a good thing!"
"But sometimes, when things get urgent, you must also know how to adapt."
"I know that you have a good impression of that boy."
"However, no matter how good that boy is, it is basically impossible for him to become a Yuanying ancestor by relying on his hard work and practice."
"At most, he can become an elder in the late Jindan stage."
"But don't we have enough elders like that in our sect?"
"Alas!"
As he spoke, Master Longxu did not forget to add a sigh.
"What we lack in our sect is Yuanying ancestors!"
"I still have more than two hundred years of life left."
"But look, who in the sect can show that they are superior and have the ability to breed Yuanying?"
"Are you sure that in the remaining time, one of those core disciples can emerge and finally breed successfully?"
Duan Zhengwen could only shake his head.
Master Longxu nodded slightly.
"The predicament of Qingxuan Sect is right in front of us. Doesn't that painful lesson wake you up?"
"Now, the situation of our Lingyao Sect is not much better than that of Qingxuan Sect."
"We can only seize the time to cultivate those geniuses."
"We can't let go of any possible opportunity."
"If our guess just now is true."
"There is really a residual soul of the ancestor of the fish master in that soul-nourishing tree."
"And, he also took a fancy to the boy's qualifications and finally chose to take over his body."
"Faced with that kind of thing, we can only I can support it!"
"If nothing else, it's just because after taking over the body, the residual soul of the fish master will definitely be more experienced and easier to breed a Yuanying."
"Although that matter is a bit against the way of heaven, it is a good thing for the sect."
"So, I can only acquiesce!"
"Yes, Duan Zhengwen understands!"
"After listening to the words of the ancestor, Duan Zhengwen suddenly realized that he was indeed a bit willful just now."
"Fortunately, the ancestor reminded him early, so that Duan Zhengwen completely woke up."
The leader of the Lingyao Sect stood with his hands behind his back and nodded solemnly.
"Since you are the leader of the sect, you should not have selfish thoughts. Especially in major events, you must know how to sacrifice and know how to choose."
"Even if it is your closest friends, you should be willing to let go of what you should give up!"
"Not bad!"
"You really know the big picture and have foresight."
The Dragon Beard Master laughed loudly.
His beard fluttered, as if he was also very happy.
Amidst the laughter, Longxu's figure gradually faded, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared.
But there was still an old voice floating in the room.
"It is a great virtue to admit one's mistakes and correct them!"
"I was right about you!"
