1097, Disciple Conference
Since there are monsters in Lijiabao, it is very likely that there is a demon cultivator.
It's just a demon cultivator, it doesn't matter, everyone is safe and sound, and everyone cultivates their own way.
But it's obviously not that simple.
This monster has the strength to be close to the god, so its owner is at least in the god transformation stage. The level of immortal cultivation in the Luo Nether Realm is not high, and there are not many cultivators in the Transformation Period. Especially Changning Mountain, in the eyes of some people, this area is far away from the orthodox immortal cultivation realm of the Luo You Realm, and it belongs to a relatively remote and ignorant place.
After living in Lijiabao for nearly half a year, they have a general understanding of the level of immortal cultivation in Changning Mountain. Like the Li family, there is a Jiedan monk in charge, which is considered a middle-to-lower force, although they don't have much right to speak, but generally no one will bully them. The first-class forces of Changning Mountain are nothing more than two or three Yuanying monks in charge, and if there are more than three Yuanying monks, it is estimated that they will not be able to stay in Changning Mountain to develop with peace of mind.
In a place like this, even if there is a god monk, they will leave and wander outside.
In this case, what is this demon cultivator staying in Lijiabao for?
If there were a god monk in Changning Mountain, it would have been known to everyone. But they didn't hear anything, and this person was clearly lurking here, just like them.
Lingyu really couldn't think of anything else in Li Jiabao that was worthy of being left by the Transformation Cultivator except for that spiritual qi vortex. However, before they started, no one interfered in that spiritual energy vortex, and the Li family only built a secret room on top of that spiritual energy vortex for the retreat of outstanding children.
The aura vortex is a special form formed by the spiritual veins. For monks below the god level, the effect is similar to that of the spiritual eye, because the aura is particularly strong, and it is best to use it for retreat. For monks above the god level, the effect is different, the aura is of little use to them, but the demand for vitality is great. And the aura whirlpool, because of the special environment, is easy to attract the vitality of heaven and earth.
They set up this large array to transfer the function of Li Jiabao's spiritual energy vortex, so as to facilitate the interception of heaven and earth vitality and sense the way of heaven. Doing so would not interfere with the original aura vortex, and the monks of Li Jiabao would not notice it at all.
However, if there are monks above the god level lurking in Lijiabao, they must be able to feel it.
They couldn't activate the formation before, could it be that this person had already mastered the aura vortex in his hands first? If that's the case, it's really not easy.
"Is the other party hostile?" Lingyu asked.
If there is hostility, then they should plan ahead to avoid disaster. If there is no hostility, it means that they deliberately divert the aura vortex and offend each other, and there is still room for negotiation. The two are very different and influence their next move.
Xu Wei thought carefully: "It's not like there is hostility, but to say that there is no hostility, it is too fierce to act." I just went to find out the situation, and the other party made a quick move, as if he was going to strike first. β
Lingyu thought for a while: "Then let's wait and see?" β
Xu Wei nodded: "Well, let's see what the other party does next." β
Although their strength has dropped greatly now, they are not afraid of each other. The foundation of the cultivator is still there, there are always a few treasures or something, and it is not difficult to escape.
Lingyu still has a spirit rune given by the Dreamless True Monarch by her side, and as a last resort, that spirit rune can save their lives.
After a few days, Li Jiabao was calm, and no one mentioned the attack on Xu Rebellion.
"Lingyu!" On this day, Xu Yi was fiddling with the formation hub at will, and suddenly found something.
Lingyu came in from outside: "What's wrong?" β
"Look." Xu Yi pointed to a few of the points of light.
Under their gaze, several points of light slowly moved, moving down to where they wanted to move past. Under the control of Xu Hui, the entire star map slowly changed its position, and finally merged together.
In the silent humming, Lingyu felt the Heavenly Dao descending. The formation they laid out was actually activated!
The two looked at each other.
Did the other party give up the aura vortex? Still is......
Xu Wei sensed it for a moment and said, "The other party didn't leave, this formation only appropriated part of the function of the spiritual energy vortex. β
"So, the other party wants to live in peace with us?"
Xu Wei nodded: "It should be." β
It was a very clear signal that the other party let go of some of the functions of the aura vortex and shared it with them.
Lingyu breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's too troublesome to really get started." β
She was seriously injured, and Xu Wei's strength also decreased a lot, and it was when she should meditate and recuperate, the other party had no intention of doing anything, which was exactly what they wanted. I guess the other party also thinks they are difficult to deal with, right? Although Xu Wei's current strength is only Yuanying, he will only cultivate to decline because of his injury, and his true strength is far beyond that of ordinary Yuanying. The other party is lurking in Lijiabao, the reason is not easy to say, it is likely to be the same as them, it is inconvenient to move, so I also don't want to conflict with them.
It's best to be safe and sound now. However, knowing that there are others lurking here in Lijiabao, you have to take some precautions.
After this incident, the two of them seemed to have reached an agreement with another monk lurking in Lijiabao. Each side uses a portion of the function of the aura vortex, but avoids each other, tacitly.
After half a year calmly, Li Yiqian brought a piece of news.
"Senior Cheng, this Longpanling Disciple Conference, I must defeat Li Yilan!" Li Yiqian's face showed a look of indignation. Although she had Lingyu's enlightenment, she calmed down and cultivated, but in the end, she was just a Qi refining cultivator, and her state of mind was not strong enough to be pampered and humiliated, Cheng DΓΉ, who had the opportunity to defeat Li Yilan, Li Yiqian would never let it go!
"Longpanling Disciple Conference?"
"Hmm!" Li Yiqian was in a good mood and explained to her, "I heard that this is organized by the He family, and all the immortal cultivation families and sects in Longpanling are eligible to participate. β
Longpanling is very large, there are many immortal cultivation families, and Lingyu knows that the He family is the most powerful one among them. They have three Yudan monks, one of them is said to be expected to be a Yuanying, in the Xiuxian family of Longpanling, the He family is the first, and most of the others are similar to the Li family.
"The rewards are huge!" Li Yiqian said with great interest that she had heard the news. The rewards are indeed very rich, and for the Xiaoxiu Immortal Family of Longpanling, it is very worth planning to be able to win a few games at the disciple conference, get some rewards, and subsidize the cultivation needs. Even if there is no Li Yilan, Li Yiqian wants to fight.
After talking about the reward, Li Yiqian glanced at Lingyu and said in a hesitant voice: "Senior Cheng, I, can I ask you for a favor?" β
Lingyu didn't hesitate: "If you want to borrow a spiritual weapon, I'm afraid you can't." β
She is now playing the role of Zhuji Sanxiu, and if she takes out the spiritual weapon and lends it to others, I am afraid it will arouse suspicion. Besides, if you borrow a spiritual weapon and let Li Yiqian participate in the competition, who knows if that Li Yilan will hate her. She is not afraid of a little qi refining cultivator, but she is afraid of trouble!
"No, it's not a spiritual weapon." Li Yiqian hurriedly said, "I heard that Senior Cheng has a few secret skills that are very powerful......
"Want to learn my secret skills?" Lingyu raised her eyebrows.
"I'll get paid!" Li Yiqian glanced at her carefully, "I know that the secret skills of my predecessors are personal wealth, and I won't leak them lightly, but I really need ...... Senior, I have some things left by my father here, you can take a look, can you do it? β
Lingyu saw her timidly stretch out her hand and show what she was holding. Li Yiqian's father, who was also a foundation building monk, was later injured in an accident during a hunting beast and died.
What she took out was a golden ring-shaped spiritual weapon.
Lingyu thought for a while, took the ring-shaped spiritual weapon, and looked at it carefully. This is a high-grade spiritual weapon, and Qi refining cultivators can't use it. The quality is average, not very good. However, the monks of Changning Mountain are relatively poor, and it is already very good for the monks to have high-grade spiritual weapons. It seems that Li Yiqian is willing to take out this high-grade spiritual weapon and has made a lot of determination.
Lingyu heard her astringent voice: "In the past six months, my cultivation has not fallen, but Li Yilan has improved faster than me. If this continues, I will be pulled further and further away by her. This Longpanling Disciple Conference is a good opportunity for me. If you can get a good ranking, not only can you subsidize your own cultivation, but you may also be able to re-enter the ancestor's sight. Senior Cheng, I know that you are actually very powerful, more powerful than my uncles, maybe it is the inheritance of some great sect, and you came to Changning Mountain...... I just ask my seniors to give me a chance. β
Li Yiqian is not stupid, she often interacts with Lingyu, and she is more or less aware of Lingyu's unusualness. Needless to say, her explanation is more profound than that of her uncles. There is also the kind of eyesight and bearing that is casually displayed, which is not something that ordinary casual cultivation can have. Li Yiqian kept these things in her stomach, and she guessed that Lingyu might be a disciple of a great sect, maybe she was persecuted, or she had to enter Changning Mountain after some accident. The terrain of Changning Mountain is special, and there are many people who come here to avoid trouble, and Li Yiqian has heard a lot about this. This artifact is very precious, not only is it valuable, but it is also a relic of her father, so she should not take it out and trade it. But Li Yiqian wants to gamble, if she wins, maybe she will have a good future.
Lingyu played with the golden ring and asked, "What kind of secret technique do you want to learn?" β
Li Yiqian's eyes showed surprise: "Senior Cheng, did you agree?" β
Lingyu put away the golden ring: "It's a very good spiritual weapon, it's not a loss." β
Li Yiqian calmed down and said: "The predecessors have excellent swordsmanship, and I have also learned swordsmanship since I was a child, and I have learned the secret skills of swordsmanship, okay?" β
Lingyu nodded.
Li Yiqian smiled: "Okay, when will we start?" β
"Now it's done."
The Longpanling Disciples' Conference was held a month later, and the time was pressing. Li Yiqian's price for a high-grade spiritual weapon, if she wants to achieve it quickly, then she can't delay it at all.
They immediately went to the back mountain, picked up a remote place, and began to practice swords.
"This set of footwork, called fire dance steps, in the qi refining stage, if you can practice it, it will be difficult for others to catch your whereabouts." Lingyu demonstrated to her, "Here, try it." β
Li Yiqian looked puzzled, this fire dance step looks very ordinary!
However, as soon as she started practicing, she found it unusual. The footwork is not only the footwork, but also the matching aura operation, but the aura starts to run according to the spirit jade, and Li Yiqian immediately discovered the mystery. This set of fire dance moves requires very little aura! The true essence of the Qi refining cultivator is insufficient, and if he can save a little, it will have an impact on the battle situation.
In fact, this fire dance step was secretly learned from the same sect during the Lingyu Qi refining period, and later, her cultivation became more and more advanced, and she modified it casually, which was far from being comparable to the usual secret skills of the Qi refining period. It can be said that the price of Li Yiqian's spiritual weapon is worth it. Under normal circumstances, let alone a spiritual weapon, even if you take out a magic weapon, Lingyu may not be willing to teach.
Since this day, Li Yiqian has come to receive training from Lingyu every day, and in just one month, Lingyu has taught three secret techniques. Blowing the feather sword, fire dance steps, and slashing the moon are all things she learned when she was in the small sword pool. The time is too short, Lingyu is not ready to teach too much, and Li Yiqian can't learn if she teaches too much, and it is difficult to use it reasonably. These three secret skills cover footwork, swordsmanship, and critical hits, as long as Li Yiqian learns these three skills, there is absolutely no problem in dealing with the fighting methods during the Qi refining period.
"Are you okay like this?" Lingyu returned from the back mountain and saw Xu Yi observing them from another place.
"What, you think there's a problem?" Lingyu asked with a smile.
Xu Wei shook his head: "I just think it's a little unfair to meddle in disputes between juniors." β
Lingyu said: "What I taught her was what she got in exchange for herself." Besides, it's just a secret technique, and it doesn't exceed her cultivation, so it's not a foul. β
Xu Wei thought for a while: "Okay." β
"Are you worried that if I do this, I will upset the balance between us and that person." A husband and wife for more than a thousand years, Lingyu can easily see his thoughts.
Xu Wei nodded, and did not hide it: "I suspect that that person is next to a certain disciple of Li Jiabao." β
That demon cultivator was very deeply hidden, and according to their observations, the Li family did not know that such a person was lurking. So far, they have not found out the whereabouts of this person, and it is most likely that he is lurking next to a certain disciple.
"You mean, Li Yilan?" Lingyu keenly heard what he meant.
Xu Wei said lightly: "It's possible, but I'm not sure it's her." β
In the past six months, Li Yiqian often came to Lingyu to pour bitter water, and these words could not be concealed from Xu Wei. Li Yiqian said that she and Li Yilan used to have petty fights, and it was common for them to stumble with each other, but they never had the point of killing each other. It is also because of this that after the incident, Li Yiqian was particularly resentful of it. She and Li Yilan are sisters, even if they are competitors, there is no need to force each other to death, right?
Li Yilan suddenly became ruthless, Li Yiqian didn't think about it, but when she heard it in Xu Yi's ears, she immediately noticed that something was wrong.
They stayed in the Li family for so long, and they didn't think the Li family was so infighting. Of course, competition is indispensable, and there are also hostilities to each other, but it is not fatal. Li Yilan, a little girl, where did she learn to be so ruthless? A sudden change in temperament must have some stimulus.
"It seems that this Longpanling Disciple Conference, we'd better go and take a look." Lingyu is not satisfied with the current situation, I am in the open and the enemy is in the dark, and I can't prevent it! R1152
