Phantom Spirit World, Lingyun City.

With the arrival of the New Year, the entire Lingjian Sect also has a hint of festive atmosphere.

After such a long time of population transfer, the population near Lingyun City has reached 50,000, of which nearly 10,000 disciples of the Lingjian Sect, and the others are ordinary people migrating from the South China Sea. The promotion progress of artificial spiritual roots is still underway. There are more than 3,000 low-level monks trained at present, and the investment in various spiritual medicines and spirit stones has reached 300,000. However, with the increase of the lower-level monks, the spiritual fields opened by the Lingjian Sect have gradually been taken care of, and a new spirit stone vein has also been found on land.

According to the current progress, nearly 800 cultivators with spiritual roots appear every month, and it is estimated that the scale of about 10,000 will reach about 10,000 by the end of this year.

Ten thousand low-level monks are enough to cope with the spiritual fields and mineral veins that are now open.

Now the focus of the Lingjian Sect has shifted to external development, and disciples above the foundation-building stage within the sect have begun to expand externally on a large scale.

On the one hand, we clean up a illusion suitable for mortals to live in, and on the other hand, we also collect more resources.

At present, there are more than 200,000 medium-grade spirit stones stored in the Spirit Sword Sect, and there are countless materials collected by disciples to kill monster dragon species! While ensuring that the Spirit Sword Sect itself consumes, they still have the spare energy to support the South China Sea Dragon Palace. It seems that there is a greater advantage in smart creatures. Although the cultivation level of the shrimp soldiers and crab generals in the South China Sea Dragon Palace is higher, the lack of progress is not so ideal. Now even the waters near the Dragon Palace have not been cleaned up.

The only effect is to cultivate more than 100 aquatic races that have cultivated into inner alchemy!

However, with these aquariums, Li Qingyun and the others finally need to do anything. Now General Qingjiao has been able to independently lead troops to conquer the demon clans in the sea. It is estimated that within a year, there will be no more squariums outside the Dragon Palace in this sea area, and finally they have completely completed their control over this sea area.

Sumeru Illusion Realm, Qingyun Peak.

At some point, a lotus pond was opened up from the top of Qingyun Peak.

There is only one golden lotus in the entire lotus pond, which is the one that Miss Wugui picked out from the Seven Treasures Pond in the West.

The lotus leaves rippled with the wind.

Li Qingyun's figure was suspended in the air, and golden lights appeared in the palm of his palm.

"rise!"

As the magic tricks were produced, the third-grade golden lotus in the lotus pond floated up, and the lotus petals swayed, and a hazy sound could be seen in it.

Li Qingyun injected all his spiritual power into it, frowned, and carefully controlled his mind.

A golden lotus blooms slowly!

On the lotus platform, the originally vague figure gradually became clear, and the flesh and blood body composed entirely of spiritual power gradually emerged.

Suddenly.

It seemed as if the entire lotus pond had shaken for a moment, and the figure on the lotus platform trembled all over. Then it slowly dissipated into the air.

"well!"

"It still failed."

Li Qingyun opened his eyes tiredly, raised his hand and saw a spiritual body flying into his palm with one move.

But it was the outline of a ** woman. She was originally a disciple of the Lingjian Sect, named Tingyu, who was responsible for teaching the sword skills of disciples of the Lingjian Sect.

Later, he died in battle while dealing with an invading monster, and no idea why a trace of soul came to the Sumeru illusion.

This period of time.

Li Qingyun has been trying to recreate a physical body for these spirits, but unfortunately, even though he refined the third-grade golden lotus, he still failed without exception.

“What’s wrong?”

Li Qingyun spread his palms and stared at the soul and soul in front of him. He murmured: "The monks from the West can recreate physical bodies for the soul, and that weird black lotus can do it."

"Why do I fail all the time?"

"Even if you refine a flesh and blood puppet, you should be able to succeed once or twice."

"How come it's not successful at once?"

In the world of immortal cultivation, recreating a body is not very difficult. Some powerful cultivators create a clone themselves. With Li Qingyun's current cultivation level, it is not difficult to recreate a body with the power of the third-grade golden lotus, but the difficulty is that the soul does not merge into the body at all, as if it is very repelled from this flesh and blood body.

"If we can't create another flesh and blood body."

Li Qingyun looked at the golden lotus in front of him and said to himself: "The only way is to use the power of incense to turn them into heroic spirits."

The so-called heroic spirit.

It is somewhat similar to the ancestral spirit sacrifice in ancient times, that is, the life form of a completely spiritual body without flesh and blood.

During the Battle of the Gods, many of the 365 righteous gods had fallen. Their souls were sealed on the Gods List, and then they reshaped their bodies on the Gods Platform and evolved into the current eight righteous gods of the Heavenly Court. Strictly speaking, these immortals have no flesh and blood, unless they cultivated their own body later.

After all, reincarnation from death is not something that an ordinary person can do!

Unless you have great supernatural powers like Empress Houtu, it will be difficult to completely resurrect a person.

"It seems that we are about to start preparing for the heroic spirit sacrifice."

Li Qingyun waved his hand, and the spirit body in his palm flew back into the ghost creature in the Sumeru illusion. Since there was no way to recreate his body, he could only hold a heroic spirit sacrifice first and see if it could be done in the future. This is a thought that Li Qingyun had long been thinking. After all, those disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect died in battle to protect mortals, so they are naturally qualified to enjoy their incense sacrifice. This power of faith is the most difficult thing to say. The spirit of heaven and earth sacrificed in ancient times was extremely powerful, and the subsequent gods of heaven and earth were also developed from incense sacrifices.

However, this incense sacrifice cannot be effective in a short while, and it may take a long time to accumulate!

The picture changes.

Li Qingyun's figure appeared in the South China Sea Dragon Palace.

He turned into a rainbow light and flew out of the sea, and soon entered the Lingjian Sect, followed by a magic order.

Dozens of sword lights emerged one after another.

The disciples of the Lingjian Sect passed the imperial edict.

"The head master has an order!"

"Build a heroic spirit temple outside Lingyun City to worship the disciples who died in battle!"

"All disciples who protect mortals and kill demons will be engraved with their reputations on the Hero Spirit Monument, and will be sacrificed once a year after that!"

This decree did not cause much trouble.

Li Qingyun has passed on many decrees during this period, and his disciples have long been accustomed to this!

As for establishing a heroic spirit temple, many people are even more happy to see it. After all, no one can guarantee that they will not have any trouble when dealing with those monsters. If someone dies in an accident, it is also very good to have incense sacrifices. The mortal world has to deal with the endless sea monsters, and the dragon species of monsters are rampant in the illusion spirit world. Lingyun City has encountered attacks from monsters for more than a thousand years, and dozens of disciples have died in battle over the past year.

In the past, the sacrifices in the mortal world were all the city gods, but now these mortal gods are naturally not qualified to sacrifice them.

It seems more appropriate to use it to worship those fellow disciples who died in battle.

Jun Mo, the chief disciple of the Lingjian Sect, seems to attach great importance to this matter. Perhaps in the eyes of this former top scholar in the mortal world, he still retains the view that "the country is important, only sacrifice and only war". Although the Lingjian Sect is still just a sect of immortal cultivation, according to the current development progress, it may evolve into a country in the future. After all, in the past, immortal cultivators were separated from mortals, but now all mortals rely on immortal cultivators. Without immortal cultivators, they would not be able to survive in the harsh environment today.

Then sacrifice has become a very important thing!

……………………

The master of the sect passed down the decree. The speed of sacrifice is extremely fast!

However, in just half a month, a magnificent Hero Spirit Temple was built outside Lingyun City, and the stone tablets on it were engraved with the titles of the Lingjian Sect's dead disciples.

If you think about it carefully, thousands of disciples have died in the Lingjian Sect over the years!

Most of these disciples died in battle to protect mortals and fight against monsters that frequently harassed. When the Hero Spirit Monument was built, everyone was moved to see the dense names on it! If no one had arranged it, perhaps no one would have thought about these things deliberately. But when so many names were carved on the stone monument, many disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect also showed expressions of honor on their faces!

Yes.

They are not only immortal cultivators, but also guardians of mortals.

Over the years, in order to protect those mortals who have no ability to protect themselves, the disciples of the Lingjian Sect have experienced tens of thousands of battles, and many sects died in battle against these monsters that frequently attacked the human race. Now they have moved to the Phantom Spirit Realm, and the bloodlines of the dragon species of monsters still appear from time to time. If they do not stand up, these mortals will have no way to survive here.

Under the Heroic Spirit Monument.

Chen Changsheng looked at a name above and looked sad and murmured: "Sister Yu!"

Jun Mo didn't know when he came behind him, and reached out and patted his shoulder.

He looked at the Yingling Temple in front of him and said to himself: "Master's actions are amazing!"

"My disciple of the Spirit Sword Sect just came to this illusion spirit world. They are surrounded by monsters and beasts on all sides. What is the difference between them and the ancestors who pioneered the wilderness in ancient times?"

"This heroic spirit sacrifice is indeed an extremely important thing!"

"good."

"I will preside over this sacrifice myself!"

"I will arrange now and find a way to hold a grand sacrifice before the spring plowing!"

Sacrifice of heroic spirits.

Naturally, it is impossible for Li Qingyun to come forward. After all, he is the founder of the Lingjian Sect, but it is very appropriate to be hosted by the chief disciple of the Lingjian Sect!

Jun Mo looked at the rows of names above, and when he saw some of the names he was very familiar with, his voice couldn't help but drop.

"Biyun, Zhao Yan, Gongsun Kang, Yuan He..."

"well!……"

He sighed softly, silently sorted out his clothes, and saluted at the heroic monument in front of him.

These are all disciples who joined him in the Lingjian Sect's Sect. After the water of the Tianhe River flowed back into the Three Realms, they didn't know how many monsters appeared for a while, and they couldn't kill them completely. Many disciples of the Lingjian Sect died in battle like this.
