Clan Cultivation: I Transmigrated With My Smartphone-Chapter 693 - 608: Calculation Failed, Temporarily Safe! _2

It is to prevent retaliation afterward.

It's ridiculous to say that the dispute has continued to this point, and the Saintess Xing Lan still doesn't know where those two cultivators came from, their background, or even their names.

Therefore, the first step of inference is to determine the appearance and name of that green-clad female cultivator.

Only then can other information be inferred.

The first step, seemingly simple, is actually the most difficult one.

Buzz buzz buzz!

At this moment, a change occurred, and within the body of the green-clad female cultivator, thirty-three radiant lights burst forth, like an eternal sun, emitting scorching radiance.

Upon its appearance, the destructive aura emitted by those magical treasures swept over and backlashed.

Elder Ye was slightly surprised, a bit startled, yet it seemed inevitable.

Above his head appeared a puppet, its form remarkably similar to Elder Ye.

Crack!

Crack!

At this moment, the backlash force passed onto the puppet, causing some cracks to appear. The originally smooth surface became rough, as if it had suddenly endured countless years of time, becoming extremely aged.

The Life Replacement Puppet, one of Elder Ye's treasures.

The Celestial Secret Master can infer all things, extracting some information from the Heavenly Dao.

But precisely because of this, the backlash encountered is formidable.

If unlucky and inferring some forbidden individuals or supreme secret places, the backlash could be lethal.

For safety considerations, Elder Ye paid a great price to invite a Harmonization Great Power to refine a Life Replacement Puppet to bear the backlash from inferring the celestial secrets.

The backlash from inferring celestial secrets is transferred to the puppet, weakening the backlash to himself considerably.

Elder Ye frowned slightly and said, "The mist on that green-clad female cultivator has been cleared a lot, only the mist covering her face remains. But with the appearance of that supreme treasure, the mist reappeared, concealing her true aura, making the inference much more difficult."

The Saintess Xing Lan said, "This green-clad female cultivator has a Dao Companion who wielded a set of magical treasures composed of thirty-three items, capable of unleashing powerful combat power.

It was precisely this strong individual who killed Elder Lin Yuan. The appearance of those magical treasures was..."

Activating magic, they tried to depict the true appearance of that set of magical treasures in the void.

But upon depicting it, the memory became fuzzy, as if forgetting the shape of those magical treasures and all related information.

The memory became increasingly blurry, ultimately forgetting all information.

"I've forgotten!"

The Saintess Xing Lan said.

"Forgotten, what a good treasure, this is another set of seventh-grade spiritual treasures! But relying solely on this set of magical treasures to hinder my inference falls far short." Determination flashed in Elder Ye's eyes.

Initially, there was hesitation in his heart, but at this moment, he was unprecedentedly decisive.

Exerting magical power, quickly consuming its energy.

The inference did not stop; instead, it increased in intensity, continuing forward.

The path of inference is like climbing a mountain; the further you go, the harder it becomes, requiring a determined push to reach the summit.

With the activation of magical power, the powerful cultivation at the seventh layer of Refining Void burst forth, nowhere concealed.

Above his head, purple stars twinkled, becoming more radiant and brighter.

The Life Replacement Puppet emitted black light, its previously dull expression became lively, threads twisted and changed, some threads disappeared while new ones emerged, in a cycle of reincarnation, ceaselessly operating.

The mist started to dissipate once more. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Buzz buzz!

At this moment, a golden broken sword appeared. The broken sword was only two feet long, inscribed with Dao Patterns, resembling a transforming dragonfish.

Once it appeared, it immediately transformed into a golden sun.

Vast radiance, scorching aura, terrifying energy swept away, suppressing everything.

Crack!

The intense backlash came, and the puppet shattered.

Instantly turned into fragments.

Not only that, the terrifying backlash continued, impacting Elder Ye's body.

Elder Ye's body underwent drastic changes; originally appearing youthful, handsome, and with smooth skin like a peerless beauty, but in a moment of backlash, he became aged, rapidly turning into an elderly form, his skin wrinkled, his appearance aged, his aura declining.

His eyes no longer held a radiant gleam, turning cloudy.

Half of his long black hair turned white in an instant.

Pfft!

He spat a mouthful of blood, Elder Ye's cultivation fell, dropping from the seventh layer of Refining Void to the fourth layer.

"Elder Ye, you..."

Xing Lan asked in shock, her arms trembling slightly, something major had happened.

"Cough cough cough!"

Elder Ye coughed, anger on his face, about to curse out loud, thinking how the Saintess could have caused this to him, without cursing a few words he wouldn't feel better.

But as his expression twisted and he was about to start cursing, he forcefully stopped his words.

Elder Ye sighed, "Timing, fate, destiny! I was too reliant on the Life Replacement Puppet, but ultimately still suffered calamity, hahaha... calamity indeed... hahaha..."

Standing up, laughing several times, his expression slightly deranged.

"Go, don't infer about that green-clad female cultivator anymore!" Elder Ye said, "To infer about that female cultivator, I paid a huge price, losing three thousand years of life, with less than a hundred years remaining. My cultivation also fell from the seventh layer of Refining Void to the fourth layer. Cough cough cough..."

The Saintess Xing Lan was shocked, taking out an elixir and handing it over.

Elder Ye took it without hesitation, consuming it directly, afterwards his complexion became rosy, recovering somewhat.

But the lost lifespan and dropped cultivation could never be restored.

After facing such severe backlash, his essence was deeply wounded; wanting to regain his peak was nearly impossible, instead, he would continue to decline.

Star Mistress Xing Lan asked, "Elder Ye, what happened?"

Elder Ye said, "There are some taboos in celestial secret inference; it cannot infer great figures, supreme roles, or children of destiny, or those with immense cause and effect. Just now, that sword was a broken Immortal Artifact, the Pure Yang Sword. In the days of yore, it was the supreme treasure of Sword Island."

"But later, it encountered a great calamity, Sword Island headed towards destruction, and the Pure Yang Immortal Sword was severed into two parts. However, the broken Pure Yang Sword still held immense power, able to conceal cause and effect, distort the perception of a Celestial Secret Master... cough cough cough..."

"How could it be? How could he obtain a broken Immortal Artifact..."

The Saintess Xing Lan said unwillingly.

Even a broken Immortal Artifact is still an Immortal Artifact, containing formidable power, capable of twisting cause and effect changes.

Only a Harmonization Great Power might glimpse its true face.

But within the Qiankun Sect, Harmonization Great Powers are the foundation of the sect, they cannot be utilized for minor matters.

To provoke the foundation of the sect for such a small matter is simply not worth it, nor is it possible.

Elder Ye advised, "Xing Lan, let it go!"

The Saintess Xing Lan said, "Let it go, but I am unwilling!"

How many things can be said to be let go, to let go easily? She didn't have such magnanimity.

...

In the Cave Mansion, Lu Xuanji breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Qinglian, with the Pure Yang Broken Sword disrupting cause and effect, we are temporarily safe!"

Qinglian also breathed a sigh of relief, "We killed people from the Qiankun Sect and managed to escape, it's somewhat unbelievable!"

Recently, she had also gathered some information about the Qiankun Sect, understanding that this sect was extremely powerful and protective, yet they had temporarily given up pursuing them.

Lu Xuanji said, "Great forces do things with consideration for pros and cons, weighing the costs. Is it worth mobilizing some dormant Harmonization Great Powers and Tribulation Crossing Great Powers just to chase a mere small figure like me? Not possible, nor would they. When the cost is too high, they will choose to let go."

"Husband, I missed you..."

"I did too..."

Lu Xuanji said.

After saying this, the two pressed closely together once more, rolling on the bed, enjoying the good life.

Earlier on, having offended the Qiankun Sect, and especially attracting the pursuit of the Qiankun Sect elders, Qinglian was quite worried.

Fearful and anxious, constantly on edge.

Now, finally calming everything down, they were temporarily safe.
