Chapter 60: The Rise and Fall of Nanzhou
At the junction of the north and south Ling counties, there is a green mountain and green water.
Three horses galloped past, and the three on them were Li Chen, Lu Nan and Yuyu.
For Yuyu, Li Chen also felt a little helpless.
Originally, after the previous matter was over, Li Chen had told Gu Huaiying and others about the situation of Yuyu.
Naturally, they attached great importance to it, and each peak said that they would accept Yu Yu as a personal disciple.
What is it to be able to curry favor with King Li Yin and accept a disciple with ordinary qualifications?
What's more, this disciple still has a good face and is a rare beauty?
Especially Qingyue Peak, Gu Huaiying directly said that he would set up a separate hall for Yu Yu, so that Yu Yu could directly enjoy the same treatment as other hall owners.
It's just that Yu Yu didn't go to any peak, she kept looking at Li Chen with blank eyes, gritted her teeth and insisted: "Li Gongzi really treated me a few days ago, but I almost lost him, so I want to follow Li Gongzi to make up for my mistakes." ”
Li Chen thought about it, and the many maids around him also had some benefits, because in addition to practicing those things, the rest of his diet and daily life were actually very casual, even perfunctory.
Yu Yu seemed to be ingenious and would definitely be able to take good care of him, so Li Chen nodded in agreement.
Along the way, Yu Yu did not disappoint Li Chen.
is not only to take water from the barbecue, but even to wipe Li Chen's cheeks all the time, but also to be comprehensive, Li Chen was taken care of by Yu Yu very comfortably.
And Lu Nan, who was traveling with him, was much more bitter, although he was also a sword spirit powerhouse, no matter where he was placed, his status would be very lofty, but Yu Yu only had Li Chen in his eyes, and he didn't pay attention to this half-old so-called guide at all.
So Lu Nan basically watched Yu Yu take care of Li Chen every day, barbecued meat and fetched water by himself alone, and lamented to the stars in the sky every night.
But that's all, Lu Nan is very aware of the gap between him and Li Chen, with the respect of Li Chen's sword king, let alone a little maid, even if it is a wealthy family with all his strength to please Li Chen, it is something he can enjoy as a matter of course.
This night, accompanied by the starlight, the group set up a simple camp, and after Yu Yu wiped the sweat stains on Li Chen's neck again, Li Chen nodded to Yu Yu and thanked him.
Although Yu Yu didn't mention it directly along the way, the hope between her eyebrows and eyes couldn't hide from Li Chen's eyes.
After Yu Yu saw Li Chen's ability, he was already fascinated, and felt that his previous knowledge was too short-sighted.
She also wanted to become as powerful as Li Chen, and before that, she had to at least ensure that she could appear in front of Li Chen's eyes at all times and leave a good impression on Li Chen.
It's just that Li Chen's cultivation is different from sword cultivation after all, he cultivates the immortal family method taught by the Ten Thousand Realms Immortal Venerable himself, how can he easily teach others?
Therefore, although Li Chen knew what Yu Yu was thinking in his heart, he still sighed slightly in his heart, the secret path of immortals and immortals was not so easy to ask for.
Thinking of this, Li Chen felt a little irritable, so he stared at Lu Nan in the distance indifferently, and asked calmly through the bonfire in front of him: "Lu Nan, since the Demon Valley was able to produce a thousand-year-old negative boxwood sinking wood that day, I think you still have something to hide from me, right?"
The place that can produce such a negative spirit wood must be a real yin land, just like the sword washing pool spirit land that Li Chen transformed.
Moreover, although Yin Qi is not beneficial to ordinary people, it is a soft spot for some strange beasts, and they can naturally evolve their own life forms based on Yin Qi.
If the sect that Lu Nan said was really within the Yin Land of this Heavenly Demon Valley, then if the people in this sect could use the Yin Qi to cultivate, they would definitely go far beyond the scope of ordinary sword cultivation and embark on another level of path similar to cultivating immortals.
And this Lu Nanbian is just a flying sword sword spirit, in terms of the number of internal breaths, it is only equivalent to the early stage of foundation building, if he really comes from that kind of yin land, his cultivation will definitely be far more than that, at least he must reach the same mental level as an immortal cultivator.
Lu Nan was startled, and hurriedly smiled bitterly: "King Li Yin is well-informed, Lu does have some things to hide from you before, but please have a lot of them, don't worry about so." ”
Li Chen nodded, and said indifferently: "It's not too late to say it now, but if I find out that what you said is discounted, then the consequences should be very clear." ”
Lu Nan was covered in a cold sweat for an instant, and had no choice but to explain slowly: "My master is indeed in the Heavenly Demon Valley, but the Heavenly Demon Valley is not my master's decision. ”
"Oh, could it be that there are other sects in the valley?" Li Chen's heart was like a mirror, but his face was smiling and he asked slowly.
"There are no other sects in the valley, only my master's sect Heavenly Demon Sect......" Lu Nan took a deep breath and said in fear, "It's just that there is a huge beast in the Heavenly Demon Valley, which is very ferocious and far beyond the control of my sect." ”
"What, there's a big monster in that place?" Yu Yu panicked instantly, and shrank behind Li Chen.
Li Chen pointed to his side, turned back to Yu Yu and chuckled: "Whether it's a monster or a strange beast, it's just some stupid things, I'll cut them with a sword." ”
Yu Yu remembered Li Chen's ability to reach the sky, and only then did he feel a little more at ease, so he gratefully sat back beside Li Chen and listened quietly.
Li Chen nodded at Lu Nan and motioned for him to continue.
"A hundred years ago, when my ancestor discovered such a treasure land as the Heavenly Demon Valley, he directly founded the Heavenly Demon Valley inside. ”
"In my generation, three generations have passed, such as my generation in the Demon Sect today, there are also my two senior brothers, their cultivation is only between me and me, basically we are the real rulers of this sect now. ”
"It's just that when the master was in retreat in the Heavenly Demon Valley, and wanted to break through to the Flying Sword King with the strange energy of the Heavenly Demon Valley, he attracted the attack of that huge beast. ”
"That strange beast is like an ape and a monkey, its body is like a small mountain, and its strength is extremely great, my ancestor fought with it with a flying sword for three days, and finally he was defeated and defeated with serious injuries. ”
"Since then, my ancestor has suffered a great loss of vitality and died early in his prime. And the strange beast also seemed to have been beaten by the ancestor and didn't dare to show up easily, and only kept guarding the boxwood in the Heavenly Demon Valley. ”
"I once went with my brothers to look for the strange beast again, trying to avenge my ancestor, but I was still frightened away by the strange beast, and only desperately grabbed a small piece of sunken wood before returning to the sect. ”
Speaking of this, Lu Nan already showed fear on his face, looked at Li Chen and said with a wry smile: "King Li Yin, that strange beast is at least a hundred years old until now, and ordinary people will definitely not believe it, so I hid it from you before." ”
"Even if you say it now, I can't believe it......" Yu Yu said in surprise, "How can there be any monster in the world that can live for hundreds of years, you are so easy to deceive me as a three-year-old child!"
Lu Nan looked at Yu Yu, shook his head and sighed: "Little girl, if you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you wouldn't have believed in this legend of the master." ”
"Yuyu, the strange beast Lu Nan said, let's call it the Heavenly Demon Ape for the time being, it's normal to live for more than a hundred years. Li Chen casually explained, "That Heavenly Demon Valley was born with Yin Earth, and the treasures and Yin Qi in it could make the life of the alien beast fundamentally transform, so it was not surprising that it could cultivate the Heavenly Demon Ape." ”
With the eyes of his immortal cultivators, he was naturally able to directly see the essence of things.
"King Li Yin, it turns out that you know better than our sect. "We still don't know why that beast is so old here. ”
"You can only cultivate swords, so naturally you can't see this level. Li Chen smiled meaningfully, "But even if it is a hundred-year-old Heavenly Demon Ape, it is actually just a beast, and it is not difficult to kill it." ”
The body is like a small mountain, and it has been nourished by the yin qi of the underworld for hundreds of years, and the demon ape must have been comparable to the realm of Xintong that day.
However, even if it is the Mind Passage Realm, it cannot be compared to the Mind Passage Realm of an Immortal Cultivator.
It could only rely on its innate brute strength plus physical instinct to fight, and it was simply unable to cast spells and master all kinds of supernatural powers like immortal cultivators in the same realm.
However, Li Chen has not yet reached the realm of heart communication, so he really wants to deal with such a heavenly demon ape, which is indeed a little reluctant.
"Either I can step into the late stage of foundation building in a short period of time, or I can find a real spiritual material and refine this Cloud Sword again, and further improve its magic power. Li Chen thought to himself.
The Youyun Sword was the pocket spirit sword that Li Chen had refined before, and before he set off, Li Chen took it out of the sword washing pool again, so as to keep a back hand for himself.
Thinking of these, Li Chen asked Lu Nan thoughtfully: "Is there any place to buy rare treasures in this Beiling County, and it is best to buy treasures similar to boxwood sunken wood?"
"Where can you buy rare treasures?" Lu Nan frowned and thought, his eyes lit up, and he said with great joy, "We do have such a place in Beiling County, and it is not far from here, known as the state of Beiling Strange Treasures, there are many big businessmen who buy and sell rare treasures, and it is one of the five famous treasure capitals of my Great Zhou Dynasty." ”
Li Chen was slightly surprised.
In this way, if Li Chen could find those precious medicinal materials there, then Li Chen would be able to refine another batch of pills and let him cultivate further.
Moreover, if you can find the real spiritual material and use it on the body of the Cloud Sword, you can greatly increase its power, and at that time, it will be much easier to kill the Heavenly Demon Ape.
"In that case, before we go to the Heavenly Demon Valley, we have to go to this Strange Treasure State. Li Chen nodded and decided.
Lu Nan breathed a sigh of relief and echoed again and again.
Yu Yu suddenly said: "Li Gongzi, the same you, you are so good to Yu Yu, but you are so full of majesty to others, and I don't know which one is the real you." ”
Li Chen was also stunned, so he directly closed his eyes and lay on his back in the camp, and then said calmly: "You talk too much, Yuyu, go back to sleep." ”
Yu Yu looked at Li Chen silently for a long time before shaking his head, and then retreated.
