575: The Immortal Spring Palace guides the Xuanhuang! The Demon Ancestor sees through Su Lie's scheme!

Su Lie looked at the Strength Transformation Talent.

“Strength Transformation: Red God-level Quality; rules Talent;

You can transform the Mysterious Yellow Energy you control into any kind of power.

Note: Although your power can transform, the core power is still Mysterious Yellow Energy.”

“Oh? This Talent must have been born because of my Enhance, right!”

Su Lie pondered slightly after seeing it.

He then looked at Thousand-Hand Demoness's Xuanhuang Talent.

“Xuanhuang: Red God-level Quality; rules Talent;

You have been granted permission by the Lord of Xuanhuang to use Mysterious Yellow Energy, and have successfully awakened the Mysterious Yellow Energy attribute.

You can increase your Mysterious Yellow Energy reserves by continuously upgrading and devouring.

Automatic recovery: 100 million points of Mysterious Yellow Energy per hour.

Note: Your Mysterious Yellow Energy comes from the bestowal of the Lord of Xuanhuang.”

“This is how I successfully transformed her into a Mysterious Yellow life after healing Thousand-Hand Demoness with the Blessing All Beings Skill!”

Su Lie felt reassured looking at this Xuanhuang Talent.

He looked up at Thousand-Hand Demoness: “You cultivate the zixiao sword Dao? Why haven't you cultivated other Sword Dao cultivation methods?”

“The only reason I could learn the zixiao sword Dao was because I stole Yu Jianying's Talent; otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to enter the gates of the Sword Dao!”

Thousand-Hand Demoness sighed.

She said with a hint of resentment: “The reason why the number of true disciples of Emperor Sword Peak has continuously decreased over the years is entirely because the Ancestor has been using Qiang Qiao Shu to devour the Talent and cultivation of Emperor Sword Peak disciples!”

“The reason I could become the Peak Master of Emperor Sword Peak and devour Yu Jianying was also because the Ancestor, who devoured the Vice Peak Master, also cultivated the zixiao sword Dao, allowing me to obtain these through Qiang Qiao Shu!”

“Currently, the Ancestor has already stolen all thirteen true inheritances and six great divine abilities of Emperor Sword Peak, and has also obtained the inherited cultivation methods from the other peaks of the Sword Sect!”

“His goal is to integrate the classics of the various peaks and create a Sword Dao unique to him! As well as Sword Dao divine abilities!”

“The establishment of the Shadowless Sect can be said to be the rise of another Sword Sect!”

She couldn't help but lament many regrets again.

Su Lie already knew what Thousand-Hand Demoness had said.

That night, he and Thousand-Hand Demoness further refined and enriched his plan.

The next morning.

Su Lie, as usual, went to the Holy Sword to bathe in holy light.

During this time, he received the respect of many disciples.

Many people called him Su Elder of Transmission!

Only then did he realize that his becoming an Elder of Transmission was known to all the disciples.

Some foreign disciples, however, showed disdain for Su Lie.

For a time.

The square was abuzz with discussion.

It wasn't until Xuan Du came down from the mountain that everyone quieted down considerably.

After Xuan Du found Su Lie, he smiled and led Su Lie away: “Junior Brother Su! You are now a revered Elder of the sect and have begun to take over and learn various management tasks. From now on, you don't need to come here at regular times to bathe in holy light!”

“Then how do I purify my own pollution?”

Su Lie asked, puzzled.

Xuan Du laughed heartily, then led Su Lie to a grand hall on the side of Heavenly Sword Peak.

“This is the Immortal Spring Hall! Inside, there's a passage that leads directly about five thousand meters underground! There's an immortal spring here! You just need to come here daily and scoop a ladle to drink!”

Xuan Du led Su Lie into the hall, and through the formation passage within the hall, they arrived at a spring eye radiating a soft glow, five thousand meters underground.

This spring eye was located beneath a clear small lake.

There were no fish in the lake, and the spring water tinkled.

Su Lie was slightly surprised after drinking it.

This spring water not only had a purifying effect but could also refresh the mind, making Su Lie feel comfortable all over after drinking it.

He quietly glanced at his panel.

Only then did he discover.

This drink had actually brought him an increase of 1,000 years of Lifespan.

Su Lie looked at Xuan Du in shock and asked: “Senior Brother Xuan Du! This spring water...”

Before he could finish his sentence.

Xuan Du explained: “This spring water is where the essence of the sect's immortal pulse gathers! Its water can not only purify oneself but also has many health-preserving effects! As for increasing Lifespan, it only has this miraculous effect the first time you drink it!”

“This is also a welfare place for the sect's Elders!”

“You were newly promoted to Elder of Transmission yesterday, and it was already close to night. You know how dangerous the sect is at night; cultivators like you and me going out would be a dead end. That's why I waited for you in the square this morning, for this welfare benefit!”

“You can take 1 liter of this spring water each time! But it's only for your personal consumption!”

“Next time you come, you just need to show your Elder of Transmission token!”

He gave some instructions.

Su Lie's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he couldn't help but ask: “Is this spring eye connected to the sect's underground immortal pulse?”

“Of course! However, there's only this one spring eye! Even if you dig ten thousand meters elsewhere, you won't find this spring eye!”

Xuan Du thought Su Lie wanted to dig a spring eye from another location, and immediately shook his head.

After leaving there.

Xuan Du went to the main peak to attend to his own matters.

Su Lie, on the other hand, went to various places to perform management duties according to the schedule arranged yesterday.

The warehouse he was responsible for was the Sword Sect's grain warehouse.

It contained a total of six types of resources.

These were rootless rice for inner and true disciples, and immortal fate rice for inner disciples, servants of various peaks, and outer disciples.

As well as immortal spirit rice for the Elders, and immortal crystal rice for the sect master, ancestors, and peak masters of various peaks.

Additionally, there were two types of immortal fruits, namely Nine Heavens Sword Fruit and Heavenly Yuan Sword Fruit.

Consuming half a catty of rootless rice daily could increase one's purification value to 100 points.

immortal fate rice could increase one's purification value by 30 points, and also had the special effects of washing away impurities, strengthening the body, opening sword apertures, and absorbing spiritual energy.

immortal spirit rice was an elemental rice, cultivated on the sect's immortal pulse. Consuming it could increase cultivation and had the effect of abstaining from grains.

immortal crystal rice was an elemental rice planted on immortal crystal mines. It condensed more concentrated elemental power, not only having the effect of increasing cultivation but also extending the cultivator's Lifespan.

Similarly, if a cultivator's cultivation was insufficient and they consumed this rice rashly, they would explode and die.

The function of the Nine Heavens Sword Fruit was that after consumption, it could awaken Sword Dao Talent and acquire Sword Aperture Talent.

It was a precious fruit that could awaken two Talents.

The Heavenly Yuan Sword Fruit was a fruit that, after consumption, could grant the Talent of Human-Sword Unity to a life form.

Only sect Elders, peak masters of various sect peaks, and true disciples rewarded by the sect could consume it.

Upon entering, Su Lie was immediately given one by the duty warehouse manager, and after checking the inventory, a simple handover was made.

Subsequently.

Su Lie first used the Heavenly Yuan Sword Fruit.

“Buzz!”

He only felt a strange power surge within his body.

This power gave him a special sense of familiarity.

As if he had already become a sword.

And then.

A prompt appeared before him.

“Congratulations on successfully awakening the Red God-level Quality rules Talent: Human-Sword Unity!”

“Human-Sword Unity: Red God-level Quality; rules Talent;

Rules Weakness Judgment: When facing enemies, you can accurately find their weaknesses.

Rules Violent Kill: When facing enemies, all Sword Dao Skills, Talents, and divine abilities you use while wielding a sword will deal an additional 10,000 times critical damage to the target.

Rules Sword Dao Comprehension: When wielding a sword, your comprehension of sword-type cultivation methods, Skills, and divine abilities will increase by 10,000 points.

Note: This Talent can only be awakened after you have awakened the Sword Dao and Sword Aperture Talents.”

Su Lie looked at the Talent before him, a slight curve forming at the corner of his mouth: “Good! Good! Good! On the last day, all these treasures will be moved out!”

The reason he wanted to manage so many departments was to gain more benefits.

The only thing he regretted was.

He had no means to acquire spirit springs or immortal pulse; otherwise, all the treasures within this Sword Sect would have been dug up by him.

He had a very fulfilling day.

Especially the transmission of teachings in the afternoon, which attracted a large number of true disciples from various peaks to seek guidance.

Although Su Lie did not understand the classics of the various peaks, he was adept at utilizing the various Sword Dao experiences recorded in the Hall of Transmission, always finding solutions.

After some time.

Coupled with Elder Li Ru's cooperation by his side.

It actually made many sect disciples deeply admire Su Lie.

Even the true disciples willingly bowed their heads and called Su Lie “Elder Su!”

After completing the transmission task.

Su Lie then went to the Mission Hall. He needed to distribute the tasks accumulated in the afternoon one by one and record the recipients and relevant information.

By the time he finished his work here.

It was already 5:30 PM.

Less than 30 minutes until dark.

After Su Lie returned to Emperor Sword Peak, Thousand-Hand Demoness excitedly told Su Lie: “Su Lie! The Ancestor has already noticed you! He said that as long as you are willing to become a member of the Shadowless Sect, he will make you my deputy! That is, the identity of a direct disciple of the sect's Vice Sect Master! To assist me and Senior Brother Sect Master in managing the Shadowless Sect!”

“When?”

Su Lie's eyelids twitched, realizing that he might not be able to hide much longer.

Thousand-Hand Demoness responded without hesitation: “That would be in about 12 days! Around 13 days! At that time, the Ancestor will have finished setting up the formation and will meet you and some other talented disciples and Elders of the sect, and reveal the truth to them!”

“What about the Xuan family?”

Su Lie asked, looking at Thousand-Hand Demoness.

Only then did he feel relieved.

Because he still had 11 days before he had to leave.

Thousand-Hand Demoness shook her head: “This matter depends on Mysterious Feather's attitude! I estimate that with his nature, he will definitely exterminate the clan! Not a single one will be left!”

“If I were the Sect Master, I wouldn't care what race they were; as long as they were willing to join the Shadowless Sect, I would leave them a path to survival!”

She said, pouting.

That night was uneventful.

The next morning.

After Su Lie left Emperor Sword Peak, he went to the Immortal Spring Hall.

There, he met more than a dozen Elders who had come to fetch water. Upon seeing Su Lie, everyone praised him profusely.

By the time Su Lie arrived at the immortal spring underground, it was already empty.

Only the forbidden formation used to guard the immortal spring remained.

Su Lie used the rules of the invisibility ring to enter the bottom of the immortal spring. He then injected at least 1,000 trillion points of Mysterious Yellow Energy into the spring eye: “Since the spring eye leads to the outside world, I will use its connection with the immortal pulse to inject this Mysterious Yellow Energy into the immortal pulse!”

“This will complement the Mysterious Yellow Energy released by the Holy Sword, polluting the entire sect! By then, I can use the invisibility ring to investigate any location!”

By the time he came out to fetch water.

Some other Elders came over.

After Su Lie greeted everyone one by one, he then took a 1-liter small gourd and left.

Time passed bit by bit.

Another 5 days later.

When Su Lie came to the immortal spring again.

He found that the spring water of the immortal spring already contained the power of Mysterious Yellow Energy.

Although this power was weak, it was enough to change some of the rules of this world.

“Good! Good! Good! After the various Elders drink this immortal spring, they will inevitably accumulate the power of Mysterious Yellow Energy in their bodies! When I make my move, these people can all be converted!”

A sharp light gleamed in Su Lie's eyes.

By the time he returned to his warehouse duty, he had already sensed, through his own connection with Mysterious Yellow Energy, that the tendrils of Mysterious Yellow Energy had spread and covered the twelve core peaks of the Sword Sect.

“It's enough! I can explore the Sword Tomb tonight!”

Su Lie felt relieved upon sensing this.

By the time he returned to the secret room of Emperor Sword Peak in the evening.

Buzz!

The overlapping formations in the secret room suddenly lit up.

The Formless Ghost Ancestor appeared outside the formation. He looked at Su Lie coldly and asked: “Su Lie! What method did you use to bypass the immortal spring's restriction? And what did you put in the immortal spring? Confess quickly!”

Behind him.

Mysterious Feather and Yu Jianying stood on either side, both holding their respective weapons.

Around them were many sword guards.

Su Lie also heard giggling sounds coming from the corner.

Those were the Formless Ghost Clan hiding in the shadows.

“Was I discovered?”

Su Lie looked at the Formless Ghost Ancestor: “No! If I had been discovered, they would have come for me that day, not waited until now!”

He frowned and denied: “Ancestor! I didn't do anything!”

“It seems you won't shed tears until you see the coffin!”

The Formless Ghost Ancestor snorted coldly and pointed a finger.

A scene appeared within the immortal spring.

This scene was precisely Su Lie's actions after entering the Immortal Spring Hall, including the scene of Su Lie disappearing for more than ten seconds.

And then it was Su Lie reappearing to fetch water.

This made Su Lie frown: “What kind of restriction is this?”

He realized that he might have already been suspected by the Formless Ghost Ancestor.

If the other party was the Sword Pavilion Ancestor, it would be easier to explain.

After all, catch the thief in the act.

Su Lie only disappeared for a few seconds; there were many ways to explain it.

But this Formless Ghost Clan was different.

He was petty, and once he suspected someone.

He would resort to ruthless methods.

The reason he hadn't personally suppressed him yet.

Was probably to obtain some other information from Su Lie.

After realizing this.

Su Lie realized that he would probably have to live like a mouse for the next few days: “What a pity! I only have 5 days left to leave! I didn't expect to fail at this critical moment!”

Seeing Su Lie's emotional shift, the Formless Ghost Clan immediately said: “You are a disciple I have focused on and want to recruit, so naturally, I arranged a recording restriction everywhere to observe and test your character! If I hadn't seen your abnormality during today's gathering, I would never have believed that you actually have a direct connection to the destruction of the Great Abyss!”

“You should know that this recording restriction can see life forms in an invisible state! Your ability is very special; even the restriction cannot see you in an invisible state! How did you do it?”

A strange light burst forth from his eyes as he stared intently at Su Lie, and his speech quickened: “Speak! Was the change in the Great Abyss a few days ago caused by your accomplice? Was the death of your Senior Sister Hu Xiaoyun your doing?”
