Sacrificial Artifact System: From Bell-ringer to the Ancestral Patriarch of the Sect novel Chapter 227

Chapter 227: Chapter 173: Fox Puppet (Seeking Monthly Ticket)

Dong!

The bell chimes at the hour of Mao (5 a.m. to 7 a.m).

The sound spreads across the sky above Divine Sword Sect.

Today’s bell chimes seem to lack some clarity and carry a hint of dullness.

Li Qian sets down the rammer. He can feel the Fox Demon Thought sealed within the Chen Bell shivering with the bell sound, as if becoming slightly weaker.

"It seems the Chen Bell can indeed erode the Fox Demon Thought."

Li Qian thinks to himself.

As long as the bell is struck every day, the eradication of the Fox Demon Thought is only a matter of time.

In a blink, more than a year has passed.

As Little White grows slowly, its body begins to automatically absorb the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi.

Clearly, its Lightness Level Talent is starting to take effect.

However, the growth of Little White’s body is extremely slow.

Normally, white foxes would have grown a lot in over a year.

But Little White only grew a little bit.

Normally, Li Qian does not activate the Primordial Spirit Power within Little White, allowing it to grow on its own, thus preserving Little White’s innate wildness.

Several disciples were puzzled as to why Li Qian suddenly began raising a little white fox, but this does not affect their fondness for the little fellow.

The one who likes it the most is undoubtedly Little Snow Ball.

Hugging Little White every day.

Just barely stops short of taking it to bed for sleep.

In this year, the fifth disciple, Yang Fan, successfully cultivated the Pure Sword Body and achieved Perfect Innate, becoming the first of the three newly accepted disciples to reach success.

More than a year later, the third disciple Su Xinlan and the fourth disciple Xu Long achieved the cultivation of the Pure Sword Body, reaching Perfect Innate as well.

From this, the gap is evident.

Little White is still growing very slowly, but the daily automatic absorption of Heaven and Earth Essence Qi has gradually spawned an invisible force within its body.

This force is not Demon Energy.

Since Little White was fused with the Blood Spirit and became a Blood Puppet, this force is different from human True Qi, demon’s Demon Energy, and even the Beast Power of mythical beasts.

Li Qian names it Blood Spirit Power.

In these years, Divine Sword Sect has consecutively seen the emergence of several Heavenly Persons.

And they are all new-generation Heavenly Persons under the age of eighty.

In the past ten years or so, the age of newly born Heavenly Persons has been gradually decreasing, not just because the Root Bone talent of the disciples is higher, but most importantly due to the influence of the Chen Bell’s chimes.

Since the last appearance of evil, the Human World has once again become stable.

However, in private, the major Daoist Mansion-level powers have not let their guard down.

Because they know that evil cannot be eradicated, at least not in the environment of the Human World, it is even less likely to be thoroughly extinguished.

It may very well be hiding, brewing an even larger disaster of evil.

Dong dong dong...

On a bitterly cold winter’s day, heavy snow like goose feathers is drifting from the sky.

Wearing thin clothes, Li Qian grasps the rammer and with a sudden force strikes the Chen Bell, accompanied by the bell chimes that transition from dullness to clarity. A shrill scream, inaudible to anyone outside, emanates from within the Chen Bell.

It is the last vestige of the Fox Demon Thought.

With the final bell strike, it’s completely eradicated, vanished like smoke in thin air.

"Finally eradicated."

Li Qian exhales deeply; it took nearly four years to completely eliminate the Fox Demon Thought.

Were it not for sealing the Fox Demon Thought within the Chen Bell, if it were outside... who knows how long it would take.

This reveals the frightening nature of evil.

Suddenly, Li Qian takes a deep breath, his face reveals an intangible sense of satisfaction. From within the Chen Bell, a pure and extreme power is fed back, merging into his Primordial Spirit, making it grow stronger.

Improving the Primordial Spirit is extremely difficult.

Because he does not have the Refining God Technique.

He can only slowly cultivate through practicing the Heartless Sword Technique and pondering the Myriad Phenomena Sword Intent. After all these years, he hasn’t felt much improvement in his Primordial Spirit, and due to splitting a fraction of his Primordial Spirit, it even became weakened for a while, only recently recovering in the last half year.

"Is this the essence from the refinement of the Fox Demon Thought by the Chen Bell?"

Li Qian has a thought.

With this in mind, he promptly sits cross-legged to ponder the Heartless Sword Intent.

This session of contemplation surprisingly feels like shattering through barricades.

After a long while, he suddenly opens his eyes, his face brimming with joy.
