Chapter 118: Behind the Jade Que
"This Bai family is even more complicated than you see. Bai Xiu said, "The Bai family advocates strength, and the power of the Bai family mainly comes from the imperial spirit.
Therefore, the jade que has become an extremely important resource for the Bai family, and since the establishment of the six sects, the competition for the jade que has not stopped.
Each sect and division has its own selfishness, and they all want to embezzle the jade ques of other sects, so as to strengthen themselves, and then get more jade que, forming a so-called 'virtuous circle'. ”
Fang Xin finally came back to his senses and was puzzled: "Why is this happening......
As far as I know, the spirit control techniques practiced by each sect of the Bai family are not the same, and the attributes of the jade que are the same.
Isn't it said that only by matching the jade que of the same attribute can the spirit master exert his power, why are they ......?"
Bai Xiu gave her an answer.
"That's not the case, it's not so much that the jade que has its own attributes, but rather that the power of the imperial spirit sealed within it has different attributes.
What really works is the spiritual power of the spirit, and the jade que is just a carrier, and its own power cannot be directly used by the spirit master, but through the resonance between the spirit master and the spirit to enter the spiritual power cycle.
This is the reason why the attributes of the spirit master's cultivation must match the attributes of the jade que.
The more powerful the jade and the spirit, the more intense the spiritual power between the spirit, the shorter the time limit for it to seal the spiritual power.
Once the time limit has passed, the spirit master needs to seal the spiritual power with the spirit carving method again, and then the spirit sealed in the jade gate can be replaced. ”
This speculation naturally originated from the booklet he had seen in the room of the White Dynasty on Hongyuan Island.
Although he hadn't heard of the Imperial Spirit in the Jade Que being replaced, the battles of the Six Sects since ancient times seemed to bear this back—a tradition that should never have gone away.
"In this way, in fact, what the various sects are fighting for are those 'blank' jade ques?" Fang thought to himself.
Bai Xiuying said: "That's right, in addition to its own powerful spiritual power, the jade que is also a container that must be used to seal the imperial spirit.
Any spirit must be sealed in a jade gate that can suppress it before it can be used by the spirit master. ”
Fang Xin couldn't help but say: "No wonder there are countless demon spirits in the world, but there are very few Bai family imperial spirits......
"Exactly. Bai Xiu seemed to say to himself, "The limitation of the number of Jade Ques has become the biggest shackle affecting the development of the Bai Family's Imperial Spiritual Arts, which inevitably leads to the competition between the various sects for the Jade Que. ”
"But I still don't understand, what does this have to do with your people trying to kill you?" Fang Xin pursed his lips, not figuring out the key for a while.
Bai Xiu said: "They want to kill me, first, because I am a person who is greedy for wolves.
Ah Xin, you are the Fang family, the three ancient families have always moved around each other, and you must have heard of the battle of the Maple Leaf Forest twenty years ago.
After this battle, the elite of the Phoenix Sect was almost completely killed, and the Phoenix Sect itself fell apart because of this, and the balance between the six sects of the Bai family was finally broken, and the battle for the Jade Que naturally broke out.
Although this kind of battle has never stopped, due to the mutual checks and balances of various sects and divisions, it has not completely torn the face like this one.
In the end, not only was the fate of the Jade Que within the Phoenix Sect completely shuffled - the power of the Ming Greedy Wolf Division was completely divided by the other divisions, and the Ming Lian Zhen Division was also independent from the Ming Greedy Wolf Division, and the Ming Po Military Division became the new leader of the Phoenix Sect;
Even several others have been greatly affected.
The Blue Dragon Sect took the opportunity to sweep away several other many jade sects, and finally developed into the first sect of the Bai family;
Although the White Tiger Sect and the Vermilion Bird Sect are not as good as the Qinglong Sect, they have also gained a lot, ranking second and third;
The Xuanwu Sect has always been good at protecting one's self, so there is no gain or loss in this competition;
The most suffering is none other than the Qilin Sect, which is already weak.
They originally wanted to take advantage of the internal strife in the Phoenix Sect to get a piece of the pie, but they didn't expect to get themselves involved in the whirlpool, not only did they not get any jade que, but instead let the other four sects take advantage of the situation and suffered heavy losses.
If it weren't for the fact that the Phoenix Sect's meat was big enough and the other sects couldn't digest it for a while, I'm afraid it would have followed in the footsteps of the Phoenix Sect.
Despite this, it was still the weakest sect in the Bai family except for the Phoenix Sect. ”
Speaking of this, Fang Xin finally understood and said, "This situation has been maintained for twenty years, and except for the Qilin Sect, no one wants to break it;
Even the divisions of the Phoenix Sect would not be willing to see Miss Yan reorganize the Ming Greedy Wolf Division and take back the position of Yuque and Phoenix Sect, who originally belonged to the Ming Greedy Wolf Division. ”
She looked at Bai Xiu with a complicated expression, shook her head and said, "And Miss Yan wants to reorganize the Ming Greedy Wolf Division, and the three of you brothers are undoubtedly the backbone."
So they want to kill you, in order to preemptively kill the Greedy Wolf Division in the cradle before it is successfully reorganized. ”
She remembered something and asked, "Bai Xiu, listening to what you said before, they want to kill you, are there other reasons?"
Bai Xiu knew that he couldn't hide it from her, so he simply continued: "This second point is because I am not just a person who is greedy for the wolf division. ”
"Could it be-" A chill crept up on Fang Xin's back, and those two words blurted out, "Ghost Eyes?!"
Bai Xiu said: "This is the main reason why they are in a hurry to attack me."
Not to mention ordinary people, even if it is the Ming family themselves, it is not 100% impossible to become a ghost after opening the ghost eyes.
And after the ghosting, no one knows what the consequences will be. ”
Fang Xin couldn't bear to say: "All this stems from the undead countercurrent back then, it was a helpless move for you to cultivate the ghost eye with the Nine Ghost Sealing Souls, and you are a victim like the Bai family."
What's more, you're not ghosting now, how can they, how can they ......?"
Bai Xiu said angrily: "In addition to the threat of the ghost itself, the Bai family has other concerns, with the reputation of the ghost eye, if the news spreads, the Bai family is afraid that it will become the target of public criticism."
The Six Sects would never let the Bai family fall into such a dangerous situation, no matter whether they were ghosts or not, as long as they could get rid of my 'scourge' first, it would be the best result.
As early as twenty years ago, this was already a thorn in their hearts, but at that time, due to the hindrance of their aunt, they did not succeed in removing it.
What's more, even if I don't have any traces of ghosting now, that day will come eventually. ”
"No!" Fang Xin categorically interrupted his words, and subconsciously said, "Have you forgotten what Brother Zhong told us before, as long as ......
As long as you are with me, I can use the Spirit of the Nine Yin to help you counteract the ghost energy overflowing from the ghost eye. ”
Fang Xin's intention made Bai Xiu very grateful, and when he understood the meaning of her words, he showed a rare look of mixed shyness on his face.
Fang Xin reacted, and her face was also hot, but seeing that he had lost his previous certainty, she couldn't help but feel bad again, and said with a smile: "Auntie is right, the Nine Yin Spirit and the Ghost Eye are really a natural pair!"
At the mention of Fang Xuanqian, Bai Xiu suddenly came back to her senses and said quietly: "Ah Xin, I often hear you mention this aunt, I think she is a highly respected senior, I must visit her if I have the opportunity." ”
A hint of hesitation clearly flashed on Fang Xin's face, and finally he said with a somewhat unnatural expression: "Auntie, she has passed away, I'm afraid there is no such opportunity." ”
After she finished speaking, she bowed her head weakly.
Bai Xiu sighed in his heart, it seemed that Fang Xin was still unwilling to get out of the truth, but he didn't want to embarrass her, so he apologized: "I'm sorry, I reminded you of the sad thing." ”
Fang Xin hurriedly shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's been a long time, and it's ...... I don't think my aunt wants to see me grieve for her. ”
Although she didn't tell the truth, Bai Xiu listened to her low and poignant voice, and the feelings in it did not seem to be adulterated, and her words may not be all lies.
He couldn't help but feel a little pity in his heart, and said softly: "Your mother and your aunt must love you very much, right?"
Fang Xin nodded and smiled, his thoughts involuntarily going back to many years ago.
"My mother was born in a side branch of the Phantom Department, and her grandfather and grandmother passed away when she was very young, so she has been helpless and relied on the help of her clan to survive.
Because of this, no one in the clan looked down on her at all, only her aunt was willing to take care of her.
At that time, my aunt was already the master of the phantom department, and although she was busy with affairs on weekdays, she often found time to accompany her mother.
But unlike her aunt, her mother not only has no support from her elders, but even her qualifications are extremely mediocre, and she has always been neglected by the clan.
She was friendly with her aunt and was treated as a knot by the clansmen, who laughed at her in private and bullied her even more.
Under all kinds of pressure, my mother gradually distanced herself from my aunt.
This made my aunt very sad, although she understood why her mother did this, and also fought back against those who ridiculed her mother, but she was young and vigorous at that time, and when she saw that her mother did not come to make peace, she also went out to travel in anger.
In this way, they did not see each other again for several years. ”
Bai Xiu listened to her quietly, and her heart was also very calm.
To be honest, she didn't know why she wanted to tell Bai Xiu about these past events that she hadn't mentioned to others for many years.
"These are all things my aunt told me later...... she whispered, "and then I was born, because I had a child out of wedlock, and I didn't even know who the father of the child was, and my mother was ridiculed by the people for another reason."
In such a depressing environment, although she and I depended on each other, my mother's health gradually deteriorated, and finally on the day my aunt came back, ......"
She wiped her tears and choked up, "I'll never forget that day." ”
