"In recent days, I have also felt a smell of conspiracy, and I feel a little uneasy in my heart, but I can't say what it is. Su Lingfeng frowned.

The old patriarch looked at Su Lingfeng for a long time, and finally spoke: "Okay, since you have embarked on the path of cultivation, these things will have to be told to you sooner or later, then I will tell you some old things about Guxi City." ”

Su Lingfeng heard the old patriarch tell him about the old things, and he suddenly became interested.

The old patriarch said:

"This large area was originally the territory of demon beasts, and the aborigines were ravaged by demon beasts, so it can be said that human beings are just a small species in this big mountain, and their status is very low.

Tens of thousands of years ago, the ancestors of my Su family came here and decided to settle here, so they united with the nearby aborigines to resist the demon beasts, teach them superior cultivation methods and combat skills, improve their own strength, and gradually develop and expand our strength.

The aborigines in the mountains are all grateful for the kindness of our Su family, and are willing to obey the orders of the Su family and jointly create a home of their own.

In this way, our strength grew rapidly, and more cultivators from the outside world came to us, gradually forming various tribes of all sizes.

At the time of prosperity, there were more than 100 large tribes and thousands of small tribes, which were under the unified command of the ancestors of our Su family and jointly founded the Gusu Dynasty.

Eight thousand years ago, the major tribes of the Gusu Dynasty fought with each other, intrigued, and people's hearts were in chaos, which gave the demon beasts an opportunity to take advantage of, and they launched a full-scale war.

In that battle, rivers of blood flowed and stained the entire sky red, the tribes suffered heavy losses, and the dynasty almost fell apart.

In that war, the dynasty suffered the biggest blow in history, and it was a disaster that existed in name only!

......

Later, the demon beast retreated, as for why it was not wiped out, the reason is unknown, and the history of the hundreds of years is completely blank.

In the end, the Gusu Dynasty barely survived, only a territory of thousands of miles, a large number of cultivation classics were lost, and talents withered, and they could never return to their former stability and prosperity. Since then, the dynasty has gone into decline.

And here, it is just a small border defense city of the Gusu Dynasty - Guxi City, a famous city in history, and now it is an almost forgotten place.

There is only a stream away from the Forest of Beasts, but five hundred years ago, there was no such long stream here, and at that time this city was not called Lonely Creek City, but Lonely Far City.

At that time, the monsters were raging here, and the Gusu Dynasty also invested heavy troops here, and the big and small wars continued.

Suddenly, one day, a long stream came out of thin air and shuttled between the Forest of Beasts and the Lonely City. Since then, the demon beasts did not dare to easily cross this long stream and invade the Lonely City.

We sent people to the other side to investigate, and found that the powerful monsters had left this place. In order to thank the kindness of this stream, people renamed Lonely Distant City as Lonely Creek City.

As for the source of the stream, he also sent people all the way west to trace the source, but no one came back.

Later, when my father's father was the patriarch, he personally set out and took my grandfather to explore together, but found piles of white bones halfway through.

My father's heart was in pain, and after passing the position of patriarch to my grandfather, he pursued west alone and has not returned!

Since then, no one has dared to explore the source of this long stream!

......

When I was born, Guxi City consisted of four families: the Su family, the Ma family, the Li family, and the Song family, and hundreds of small families.

The Ma family occupies the mineral deposits, the Li family builds weapons, the Song family is good at business, and my Su family controls the hunting of the forest of beasts. For many years, the patriarchs of the major families have performed their duties and have been at peace with each other.

A hundred years ago, the Ma family colluded with the Li family, threatened the Song family, and in the middle of the night, launched a rebellion at the same time, attacking the main city of Guxi City, where our Su family was stationed. That night, the families suffered countless casualties, wailed all over the field, and the main city of Guxi City was even more bloody inside and outside.

In the end, the children of my Su family suffered thousands of casualties, and the main city of Guxi City was still broken, and the three major families surrounded the city lord's mansion as if it were an iron pass.

Back then, I was still the patriarch, and I couldn't bear to see the Su family's foundation cut off my hands, so in desperation, I used a secret method to break through the Bone Refining Realm in a short period of time, and I had the strength of the Xuanmai Realm, which turned the tide of the battle and calmed down the chaos in one fell swoop!

The head of the Ma family was killed on the spot, and the two heads of the Li family and the Song family were abolished, and later all the main members who participated in the rebellion were exterminated, and the matter was quelled.

Because of this, I myself lost the path of cultivation, the martial arts shrank, and my cultivation did not advance but retreated!

In addition, the killing in this battle was too heavy, so I resigned as the patriarch and came here to spend the rest of my life!

After that, the city of Lonely Creek and the various family territories returned to peace, and there were no large-scale conflicts.

However, the relationship between various ethnic groups can no longer be as before, and in the face of the triennial beast tide, they are also pushing back and refusing to contribute.

In recent years, the Ma family seems to have received some support, and its power has grown rapidly, and it has gradually become arrogant.

This time, the Li family and the Song family were also suppressed by the Ma family, and it seems that the Ma family does not plan to form an alliance against our Su family this time, and has the intention of annexing the three major families.

Many of the secret guards we sent to monitor the Ma family seemed to have disappeared from the world, and there was no news, not even a corpse. ”

Speaking of this, the old patriarch sighed, it was really sad that so many outstanding geniuses disappeared like this. ”

Only then did Su Lingfeng understand the world he was in, and he felt that the amount of information was too much, and his heart was like a big stone had been pressed, and he didn't know what to do.

The old patriarch also sensed Su Lingfeng's discomfort and comforted: "You will have to see the outside world sooner or later, there is no need to think about it now." ”

Su Lingfeng nodded.

The old patriarch said again: "I have told you so much, maybe you don't understand it very well, but what I want to say next, you must remember!"

The Ma family must have the support of certain forces to be so unscrupulous, that is to say, the Su family may face a bloody battle in the near future.

Recently, I, the patriarch and the senior leaders of the Su family have formulated a strategy, and the Su family's secret guards will focus on protecting Su family geniuses like you.

Unexpectedly, such a thing happened before the implementation began. But your performance this time is amazing, even I didn't expect you to grow to this point!"

......

The grandfather and grandson chatted for a long time, and Su Lingfeng learned about the history of the Gusu Dynasty, and knew many old things in Guxi City, as well as the current pattern and crisis.

Su Lingfeng only felt that he was living in a dream before, and now he is beginning to wake up and face the real world.

"I almost forgot, this time I found a new main medicine of Lingwu liquid for you, not Leopard Spirit Grass or Niu Jin Grass, but Spirit Snake Grass and Elephant Tail Grass that are more valuable than them. The old patriarch suddenly thought of the matter of the Lingwu liquid.

Although they both belong to the ranks of second-order top-grade medicinal herbs, the Leopard Spirit Grass and the Ox Jin Grass belong to the inferior of the best, while the Spirit Snake Grass and Elephant Tail Grass are the middle of the best. There are still quite a few gaps between them.

When Su Lingfeng heard this, he was extremely excited, since his soul recovered, he was even more enthusiastic about cultivation, and he was even more eager to improve his strength.

The two returned to the refining pharmacy and refined the liquid together, this time, the main medicine was still purified by the old patriarch himself, and all the auxiliary medicines were refined by Su Lingfeng, and the old patriarch supervised and guided on the side.

Moreover, the old patriarch also made new requirements for Su Lingfeng, he could no longer purify one herb at a time like before, and he had to increase the number and purify three herbs at a time.

The study of alchemy and alchemy is an extremely test of people's patience and understanding, and at the same time, it is also necessary to have a basic ability - efficiency.

Su Lingfeng felt a lot of pressure, and he had to be careful about refining a medicinal herb, but this time it had tripled, which made him nervous.

Fortunately, this time the old patriarch prepared enough auxiliary medicines, so Su Lingfeng dared to refine the medicine, in order to let him show his strength, the old patriarch left the refining pharmacy, and Su Lingfeng was alone to refine the herbs.

Six hours later, Su Lingfeng finally finished refining all the auxiliary medicines, but he looked at the herbs that had been spoiled by himself all over the ground, and felt very guilty, and he didn't dare to call the old patriarch.

At this time, the old patriarch just pushed the door in, looked at the waste materials all over the ground, his eyelids couldn't help but shake a few times, and he couldn't speak for a while.

"Master/Master, am I too stupid!" Su Lingfeng scratched his head and said guiltily.

The old patriarch walked in and said, "Basically, there are two servings, it's good, continue to work hard next time!"

After lunch, the old patriarch began to purify the main medicine. The main medicine is too precious, and the old patriarch doesn't dare to be sloppy in the slightest, but with the experience of the first purification, the purification speed is faster this time.

......

"Gooooooo

Su Lingfeng looked at the medicinal liquid in the medicine pod, and felt that the medicinal effect of the medicinal liquid this time was much stronger than before, and spirit snakes and fierce elephants could be faintly seen in the rising mist.

It wasn't the first time he had seen such a sight, but he still felt terrified. Secretly gritted his teeth, no matter how painful it was, he had to fight!

With a "poof", Su Lingfeng jumped into it, and the medicinal bath suddenly surged.

Suddenly felt a huge pressure and the chrysalis came, not only the body, but also the divine soul was very painful this time, and it felt that the body and the divine soul were squeezed and shapeless.

Spirit snakes swim all over the body, and fierce elephants collide everywhere in the body, in fact, they are just medicinal liquids, only born with demon beasts, and their breath can only show their form after being contaminated with their breath for a long time.

Although the medicinal properties of this medicinal bath were more violent, Su Lingfeng was not as painful as before.

Su Lingfeng began to operate his mental method, and the spirit snake and the vicious elephant-like liquid were frantically absorbed by his body. He found that the medicinal liquid he configured was more refined than the Heaven and Earth Aura, so he didn't have to worry too much about backlash.

What's more, Su Lingfeng had already comprehended the essence of asking the Dao formula, and he could absorb the medicinal properties in the medicinal liquid as he wanted.

After a stick of incense, Su Lingfeng broke through to the fifth level of the forging body realm, and there were still thirty percent of the medicinal properties in the medicine pod, and he continued to absorb it, and impurities were discharged from time to time in his body.

At the same time, he felt a little cold qi in his body, it seemed that during the last duel, a large amount of mixed heaven and earth aura had been gathered in a short period of time, and it was left in his body.

"Puff puff..."Su Lingfeng let out a fart, and the bubbles rose up in the liquid medicine, which was a refreshing and pleasant feeling.
