Sacrificial Artifact System: From Bell-ringer to the Ancestral Patriarch of the Sect-Chapter 254 - 186: Old Friend Has Passed Away (Request for Monthly Ticket)

Chapter 254: Chapter 186: Old Friend Has Passed Away (Request for Monthly Ticket)

Demon Race Array Master Sheep Demon’s demon core and storage device, Li Qian did not let go, including all the array flags and array plates, all were collected.

The grey fog originally shrouding Yiming Town quickly dissipated.

For Li Qian, this time was not only about slaying a Demon Clan Great Saint but also an unprecedented harvest.

How many good items could be in a top-level Great Saint’s storage device?

The storage device of a Demon Race Array Master would definitely contain quite a few good items related to arrays, which was what he urgently needed.

"Daoist, may I ask for your esteemed name?"

Ling Long Great Saint had her Primordial Spirit return to her shell, and as the Primordial Spirit Dharma Form dissipated, revealed was a palace-dressed beautiful woman looking around thirty, with phoenix eyes and willow brows, exuding a refined and luxurious air, yet also a flirtatious charm.

"I am Qian Yuan, I have seen Daoist Ling Long."

Li Qian was quite astonished by the appearance of Ling Long Great Saint.

To become a Great Saint, one must be of considerable age, yet Ling Long Great Saint looked very young, obviously well-maintained.

"So, it is Daoist Qian Yuan. If not for your timely help, I’d have probably been poisoned by that Elephant Demon. I’m endlessly grateful for saving my life."

Ling Long Great Saint gave a bow.

"There’s no need for such formalities, Daoist Ling Long. We both belong to the Human Clan, and slaying demons and exorcising devils is our duty."

Li Qian spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Daoist Qian Yuan, why not visit my Dao Sect and allow me to play the host?"

Ling Long Great Saint invited.

Being able to bring such a Qi Blood Saint to the Dao Sect would be greatly beneficial for them.

"Daoist Ling Long, there’s no rush. We can discuss this later as I have other matters to attend to first," Li Qian said with a smile.

How could he possibly join the Dao Sect... Staying independent from the Martial Alliance was the true path.

Once joining the Martial Alliance Dao Sect, he would be unable to act freely.

"Wait, Daoist Qian Yuan, if you join our Dao Sect, we are willing to offer you the status of a Supreme Elder."

Ling Long Great Saint quickly said.

Within the Dao Sect, only the top-level Great Saints could obtain the status of a Supreme Elder.

However, Li Qian, being a Qi Blood Saint, definitely qualified.

But Li Qian did not respond and, with a shift of his figure, already disappeared into the darkness.

Ling Long Great Saint did not expect this Qi Blood Saint to be so cautious, not giving her any chance.

"It seems not easy to win over this Qi Blood Saint."

Ling Long Great Saint sighed.

Nevertheless, she couldn’t let other forces lure this Qi Blood Saint away.

Compared to other forces, Dao Sect still had a significant advantage, at least having already made contact with this Qi Blood Saint.

Other forces currently have no knowledge of this Qi Blood Saint’s existence.

Moreover... the event of slaying the Elephant Demon Treasure Bottle Great Saint must not be leaked.

If the Demon Race knew of this Qi Blood Saint’s existence, they would spare no expense to eliminate him. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

Especially under the current circumstances, this Qi Blood Saint, not having joined the Dao Sect, could not enjoy the protection of the top-level Great Saints.

For a Qi Blood Saint to fully exert their power, it is best to cooperate with other Great Saints, then they could easily slay a Demon Clan Great Saint.

Even the Elephant Demon Treasure Bottle Great Saint, a top-level Great Saint, was easily slain, one can only imagine the tremendous power of the Qi Blood Saint.

Although it was related to the Great Saint being trapped in the array, the Qi Blood Holy Domain’s ability to suppress the Devil God Battle Body was enough to severely weaken a top-level Demon Clan Great Saint’s strength.

....

Li Qian returned to Chen Bell Platform, it was already noon.

This trip to the battlefield in Chi Country, the spoils were not average in size.

He began to inventory the gains after coming back.

Two demon cores, especially one from a top-level Great Saint, contained an extraordinarily shocking amount of energy.

Two storage devices, the one from Elephant Demon Treasure Bottle Great Saint had a much larger space than the one he originally possessed.

Huang Lang Qi Saint was just a top-level Martial Saint, how could he compare with a top-level Great Saint?

So Li Qian immediately switched to the Treasure Bottle Great Saint’s storage device.

The abundance of items inside left Li Qian astounded, with tens of thousands of Primordial Stones alone.

There were even five particularly special Primordial Stones.

"Is this a Five Elements Essence?"

Li Qian took out an unusual essence as large as a fist and reddish all over. Holding it in hand, one could feel its warmth.

He had read about Primordial Essence in a book of demon language.

It’s said to be an upgrade over Primordial Stones.

In a Primordial Stone mine vein, only a very few Primordial Essences would be born.

To break through from a Great Saint to a Supreme Saint... one needs the Five Elements Essence, otherwise, the breakthrough would be extremely difficult.

Clearly, these five essences were prepared by the Elephant Demon Treasure Bottle Great Saint for breaking through to a Supreme Saint.

But now it had fallen into the hands of Li Qian.

Aside from Primordial Stones and essences, there were numerous other elixirs, Jade Scrolls, rare materials, etc.

There were many items that Li Qian had never seen before.

Finally was the black bottle.

It must be the God-Slaying Treasure Vase mentioned by Ling Long Great Saint.

He probed with his Spiritual Sense, finding a strong prohibition; even though the Treasure Vase Great Saint had fallen, this demon weapon was not easy to refine.

However, the vicious nature and power of the God-Slaying Treasure Vase were personally experienced by Li Qian.

If not for the Chen Bell’s defenses, his Primordial Spirit would have certainly been severely damaged by the Shadowless Divine Blade released from the God-Slaying Treasure Vase.

Such a demon weapon, if refined and utilized for his own use, would give him another powerful trump card.

When facing powerful demons, first suppress with the Qi Blood Holy Domain, then disturb with the sound of the Chen Bell, and finally attack the target’s Primordial Spirit with the Shadowless Divine Blade from the God-Slaying Treasure Vase... the effect would be absolutely astonishing.

He then picked up the Sheep Demon’s storage device, which also contained many items, mostly related to arrays.

Various Array Formation Books were very numerous.

Upon reading through them one by one, Li Qian was overjoyed; the Sheep Demon truly was a professional Array Master, possessing a very complete Lion Camel Ridge Ten Directions Formation Solution.

This reveals that the Sheep Demon, in Lion Camel Ridge, holds no ordinary status and is definitely not a common demon array master.

He must have received the true inheritance of the Lion Camel Ridge Array lineage to carry such a complete Lion Camel Ridge Ten Directions Formation Solution.

"It’s really like finding what you need without effort after searching fruitlessly everywhere."

Li Qian was deeply moved.

This Lion Camel Ridge Ten Directions Formation Solution was what he craved the most.

After all, his array technique was fundamentally based on the Lion Camel Ridge Formation Solutions, and the Qianyuan Array Manual essentially leaned more towards the Lion Camel Ridge Ten Directions Formation Solution.

Moreover, there were many array systems in the storage device of this Sheep Demon, and although most of these arrays were incomplete, they were of great value to Li Qian, allowing him to extract their essence and discard the chaff, thus perfecting his Qianyuan Array Manual.

Over the next month, besides his regular cultivation, Li Qian studied array formations and refined the God-Slaying Treasure Vase.

One day, an old man in his sixties or seventies suddenly arrived at the Chen Bell Platform.

"Chen Bingbing, pays respect to Uncle Li."

This old man knelt down and paid his respects to Li Qian.

"Are you Chen Bingbing? Where’s your father?"

Li Qian was surprised to see this old man,

The first time he met Chen Bingbing, he was a shy boy of eleven or twelve.

He hadn’t seen him since.

However, he had arranged for the Chores Hall to look after the boy.

As for what happened to the boy afterwards, he hadn’t paid attention.

In a blink of an eye, nearly seventy years had passed, and the boy had aged into an old man nearing eighty.

"Uncle Li, my father... has passed away."

Chen Bingbing quickly said.

"What, passed away? When did this happen?"

Li Qian was shocked.

After all, Chen Yong was his first friend upon entering the Divine Sword Sect.

It’s just that after Chen Yong left the Divine Sword Sect, they hardly kept in touch, the last time being... when he took Chen Bingbing for the Sect’s recruitment exam.

If considering his age, Chen Yong would have been over one hundred and ten years old.

Chen Yong had not broken through to the Innate level, and it became even harder afterward.

Postnatal Martial Artists living to about a hundred years old is already considered long-lived.

"Uncle Li, it was just a month ago. My father really wanted to see you one last time, but..."

Chen Bingbing said.

He didn’t finish his sentence, as the gap between their statuses was too large.

His father was just an ordinary Inner Sect Disciple, whereas this Uncle Li was now the Supreme Grand Elder of the Divine Sword Sect.

"Ah, you should have informed me."

Li Qian sighed.

Had he known, he would have definitely gone to see Chen Yong one last time.

He sensed Chen Bingbing’s cultivation, which was only at the sixth level of Postnatal.

"Chen Bingbing, let me go and pay homage to your father."

Li Qian said, then with a sweep of his True Qi, took Chen Bingbing with him and left the Chen Bell Platform.

Chen Bingbing was a bit overwhelmed by the honor.

He hadn’t expected this Supreme Grand Elder, Uncle Li, to so humbly go pay respects to his father.

He suddenly regretted not bringing his father to the Chen Bell Platform against his father’s wishes to fulfill his last desire.

Unfortunately, he had hesitations back then and had not fulfilled his father’s wishes.

Chen Yong’s hometown was in Hua County, Changping County, Sword State.

With Li Qian’s speed, a distance under a thousand miles naturally took just a moment to fly.

Li Qian arrived at Chen Yong’s grave.

Looking at the content on the tombstone, he sighed deeply, then took out a jar of wine from his Storage Device, poured it in front of the grave, and said, "Brother Chen, I am late, I did not accompany you on your last journey, you used to enjoy this wine..."

Saying that, he poured a jar of wine in front of the grave.

Time flies, and the old friend is gone.

He deeply felt the ruthlessness of time.

Suddenly, he looked toward Chen Bingbing, "Chen Bingbing, since your father and I were close friends, how is your family doing now?"

"Uncle Li, my family is doing well... My grandson passed the Divine Sword Sect’s recruitment exam three years ago and became an Inner Sect Disciple."

Chen Bingbing quickly said, the smile on his face when mentioning his grandson clearly held high hopes.

Li Qian nodded, then took out several elixirs and gave them to Chen Bingbing, "Take these elixirs, they will be of great benefit to your grandson."

"Uncle Li... this...."

Chen Bingbing was a bit overwhelmed.

"Take it."

Li Qian said, then took out a Jade Token, "Also, this is my token. If your Chen family encounters any difficulties in the future, bring this token to Wuxin Peak, and it can ensure your Chen family’s safety."

This Jade Token was engraved with the words of Wuxin Peak and a Qian symbol.

It represented his token.

"Thank you, Uncle Li."

Chen Bingbing quickly knelt down, respectfully receiving the Jade Token.

He knew the value of this Jade Token; it was infinitely more precious than those elixirs.

With this token, his Chen family had an intangible support for the future.

He knew all this was brought by his father.

This Jade Token would become a heirloom of his Chen family!

"Take good care of the Chen family, do not let your father’s expectations down."

Li Qian nodded, then his figure moved, ascended into the sky, and quickly disappeared from sight.
