Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 272

Chapter 272 The Fourth and Fifth Brothers with Bad Intentions

“Since you’ve achieved such proficiency in the art of talismans, there’s no need to follow my guidelines. Let your senior sister take you to meet the other senior brothers.”

“Yes.”

…

Jiang Li followed Yu Feng in stealth as he accessed the system store to check what was available in the Tonggu World.

The system store couldn’t transcend the laws of time and couldn’t sell Jiang Li things from this world, but Jiang Li could roughly judge what was available in this world based on what the system store had to offer.

“Basically nothing related to the Immortal Realm? How interesting.” Jiang Li sneered. Things in the Immortal Realm were indestructible, and wear and tear were normal, but for them to disappear would take thirty-six thousand years.

…

“This is your Fourth Senior Brother.”

“Hello, Junior Brother.” The Fourth Senior Brother was a burly man, carefree and open-minded, as if he couldn’t keep secrets.

Only Yu Feng knew that the Fourth Senior Brother wasn’t unable to keep secrets, but was simply too good at it.

He once painstakingly eliminated his third senior brother, thinking he could save his sister and master, only to discover that his fourth senior brother was also plotting against his master, secretly poisoning him and then letting the wolf into his house to rob him of all his belongings.

“Hello, fourth senior brother, are you also learning the art of talismans from Master?”

The fourth senior brother smiled brightly. “I don’t have the talent for it. I can’t learn the art of talismans. I can only follow Master and study cultivation honestly.”

Yu Feng thought to himself, “Good honesty, you’ll kill Master in the future. I didn’t see honesty when you said that good things should be kept within the family.

” “How is your talent for talismans, little junior brother?”

“Average.”

“Keep working hard.” The fourth senior brother patted Yu Feng’s shoulder in encouragement.

“Sister, will the sect provide clothes? My clothes are a little torn,” Yu Feng asked.

Senior Sister Wu Lian slapped her head. “Oh, I forgot about that. I’ll get you a new set when we get back.”

The Fourth Senior Brother smiled as he sent the two off, his face darkening. A mark on his palm, a tracking mark, was left on Yu Feng’s clothes.

He looked rough and burly, but he was actually a meticulous man who liked to keep everything under control. Even the whereabouts of the new Junior Brother were something he wanted to keep track of.

He hadn’t expected Yu Feng to change his clothes.

“Were we spotted?” The Fourth Senior Brother felt his methods were sophisticated and Yu Feng couldn’t possibly detect them.

“Is it a coincidence, or is there something special about Junior Brother’s cultivation?”

For safety reasons, Senior Sister Wu Lian and Taoist Tong Chen hadn’t shared the fact that Yu Feng’s cultivation could turn danger into safety.

…

“This is your Fifth Senior Brother.”

“This is Master’s new Junior Brother? Come, for our first meeting, I’ll give you a small gift.” The Fifth Senior Brother was a generous man. He was squatting on the ground tending spiritual plants. Seeing Wu Lian and Yu Feng approach, he stood up, pulled out a copy of the “Spiritual Plant Handbook,” and gave it to Yu Feng.

“Thank you, Senior Brother!” Just like every time he met his Fifth Senior Brother, Yu Feng received a tattered copy of the “Spiritual Plant Handbook.

” Yu Feng knew the book contained a technique that promised rapid progress upon initial practice, tempting those who practiced it. However, once mastered, they would fall under the control of the Fifth Senior Brother.

The Fifth Senior Brother was actually a disciple of another Nascent Soul cultivator, lurking within Taoist Tongchen, hoping to find an opportunity to collude with his true master and eliminate him.

The Fifth Senior Brother was a cautious man, unwilling to risk communicating with his true master. He needed to control someone else and instruct them to contact the true master.

After practicing this technique, Yu Feng thought his luck had turned, finally achieving the legendary adventure. However, he discovered he was merely a puppet of the Fifth Senior Brother.

Unable to control himself, Yu Feng passed on Taoist Tongchen’s weaknesses to others, leading to his discovery and death. Yu Feng would never forget the look of disappointment Sister Wu Lian gave him.

Later, Yu Feng learned his lesson and stopped touching the Handbook of Spiritual Plants. Fifth Senior Brother used other methods to pass on messages, and Taoist Tongchen and Senior Sister Wulian ultimately met their end.

“Fifth Senior Brother likes spiritual plants?” Yu Feng wondered.

“Yes, your Fifth Senior Brother just loves to tinker with these things,” Senior Sister Wulian said grumpily. She felt Fifth Senior Brother had some talent for talismans, and wondered why he had given up so early and turned to spiritual plants. Yu

Feng thought Fifth Senior Brother wasn’t just tinkering with flowers and plants. He had constructed a massive formation using the roots of spiritual plants, which, when activated, could weaken the power of Taoist Tongchen’s talismans. Whether Third Senior Brother summoned Master’s enemies, leading to Taoist Tongchen’s defeat, or Fourth Senior Brother invited the enemy into the house, leading to Taoist Tongchen’s defeat, Fifth Senior Brother’s formation was always involved.

Yu Feng died dozens of times before he noticed Fifth Senior Brother’s subtle maneuvers.

“Have the people of this world ever thought about how to cultivate? They’re constantly scheming against others, and how could they even think about cultivating?” Bai Hongtu was shocked. He hadn’t even considered using the roots of spiritual plants to construct a formation.

Isn’t it good for everyone to cultivate peacefully?

Why are they constantly scheming? Can scheming defeat Jiang Li? If so, count me in.

“That sounds like a good idea.” Bai Hongtu, inspired, had an idea. He hung up the remote communication talisman and hurried off to put it into practice.

Bai Hongtu wasn’t paying attention to Yu Feng’s situation. After all, with Jiang Li around, nothing could go wrong.

Jiang Li had no idea what Bai Hongtu had come up with, but he just hoped it wouldn’t cause chaos in Jiuzhou.

“With Immortal Elder Changcun watching over us, nothing should go wrong,” Jiang Li muttered to himself. He wasn’t sure about Bai Hongtu, but he was confident in Immortal Elder Changcun.

Apart from Fairy Hongchen, Immortal Elder Changcun was, in Jiang Li’s eyes, a reliable and all-knowing elder.

“I’ve met all three of you, senior brothers. You’re all good people, right?” Senior Sister Wulian brought Yu Feng to her courtyard and presented him with clothes that fit his figure.

“Yes, you are all good people,” Yu Feng said, unwillingly.

When he first met the three senior brothers, he thought they were truly amiable. Later, he discovered the saying, “You can only know a person’s face, not his heart.

” “What about the second senior brother? Why don’t you meet him?”

“He’s an ungrateful person. Don’t mention him!” Speaking of the second senior brother, Wu Lian’s pretty face turned cold, unwilling to talk more, a rare hint of murderous intent flashing across her face.

Yu Feng actually knew what Second Senior Brother had done. He had seen Third, Fourth, and Fifth Senior Brothers, but since Second Senior Brother wasn’t around, he deliberately asked, reacting as if he were normal.

“What did your Second Senior Brother do?” Jiang Li asked.

“He was once Master’s most prized disciple, and he was going to inherit Master’s legacy. Unfortunately, his mind was devious. He learned a Devouring Technique that could devour cultivation for his own cultivation. When Master was trying to break through a barrier, he asked Senior Sister Wu Lian and Second Senior Brother to protect him. Second Senior Brother took the opportunity to unleash his technique, intending to devour Master.”

“Master’s cultivation was profound, blocking the Devouring Technique. Second Senior Brother’s scheme failed, but he still suffered internal injuries that damaged his foundation and made it difficult to heal.”

“Second Senior Brother, seeing the situation was dire, fled and was never seen again.”

“Senior Sister Wu Lian kept blaming herself, saying she should have reacted faster.”

“…Your Master and Senior Sister Wu Lian are acting like normal people, which is a little bit jarring for me.”
