Mortals in the secular world, if they can't obtain a good inheritance of exercises, or if they can't worship the sect, then if they want to cross the three foundational realms of skin refining, bone refining, and blood refining, it will take more than ten years, or even more time, to say the least.

But like Qingyi, with a good master like Ye Kong, a heaven-level inheritance technique like "Taiyin Xuanshui Jue", and the early cultivation resources provided by the Zhao family, plus Qingyi's own talent, then Qingyi's cultivation speed is naturally based on heaven.

Generally speaking, the children of the sect family began to boil up their bodies when they were eight years old, and after two years of raising, they began to contact the exercises at the age of ten, and they can generally enter the Xuan in about 100 days.

This is also the origin of the saying "100 days into the mystery".

By taking Chevadan, Qingyi crossed the stage of refining skin and bones in one go, and started directly from blood refining, which was actually a practice that was scorned by many people in the cultivation world. Because the general perception of the monastic community is that this practice is to pull out the seedlings and promote the growth, it will cause the monks to have an unstable foundation, no matter how good the talent is, this foundation will not be stable, and the future achievements will not be high.

If people know that Ye Kong made Qingyi so "quick", I am afraid that they will feel a burst of heartache, thinking that Ye Kong has ruined a good seedling.

In this regard, Ye Kong could only sneer.

If you follow the path of martial arts cultivation, or if you are a Buddhist warrior monk, then you really need to slowly boil your body, and it is not suitable for this kind of cultivation method that skips skin refining and bone refining by taking Wash Vadan and directly refining blood into the Xuan. But if it's like Qingyi, who doesn't practice martial arts at all, but is a cultivation method for qi refiners, then skin refining and bone refining are not important, and they are dispensable.

Moreover, even if the foundation is really unstable, the future is not without means of repair.

At least Ye Kong knew that there were more than a dozen high-level elixirs that could make up for the shortcomings in this regard.

After teaching Qingyi the relevant mantras and minds, and letting him practice and meditate on his own, Ye Kong also went back to his room to rest and prepare for tomorrow's actions.

This time, he didn't plan to take Qingyi with him.

No one knew better than him how dangerous the Grey Forest was, especially the closer it was to the south of the Grey Forest, the danger level simply increased exponentially - at least for the current Ye Kong, it was indeed a forbidden area for life. And even if he didn't go south, only at the edge of the Gray Forest, at least he had to be a monk who had entered the Xuan San Realm to be able to do it easily, if it weren't for Ye Kong's familiarity with the Gray Forest, he wouldn't have agreed to Xu Cheng at all.

Of course, the other reason he would agree was also because there was something in the Grey and White Forest that he wanted.

White Spirit Flower and Gray Soul Fruit.

This is a specialty that only grows on the outer edge of the gray and white forest, and the grade of the two spirit grasses is not high, just second-order spirit grass. However, these two kinds of spirit grass are both negative spirit grasses, and they are the neutralizers and auxiliary medicinal materials that many strong and masculine spirit pills need, so there are often relatively poor monks who come to the edge of the gray forest to collect them, and then sell them to pill pharmacists or forgers in exchange for their own cultivation resources.

However, because these two spirit grasses are in great demand, these spirit grasses on the periphery of the gray and white forest have basically been collected. However, fortunately, the growth cycle of the two spirit grasses, the White Spirit Flower and the Gray Soul Fruit, is much shorter than that of the Jasper Bamboo, the Thread Flower, the Snake Soul Grass and the like: both of them are mature in the period of about twenty to twenty-five years, and unlike the elixirs such as the Jasper Bamboo and the Snake Soul Grass, the White Spirit Flower and the Gray Soul Fruit must be collected within five years after they bloom and bear fruit, otherwise they will not be able to enter the medicine.

And what Ye Kong needed was the White Spirit Flower and Gray Soul Fruit after the flowering period.

The next day, after arranging Qingyi's affairs, Ye Kong went directly to the Gray Gate to wait for the people of the Xu family.

Empty Mountain City is a city built in the belly of the mountain, and there is a magic circle imitating the sun above the city - no one knows who established this magic circle, the only thing that is known is that Sky Mountain City has existed since the establishment of the city, this magic circle has existed, it is the same as the real sky outside, it will bring day and black to the empty mountain city, and the only thing that will not bring is the real natural weather change.

In this huge city, there are only two gates.

One is the white gate for entering and exiting the empty mountain city, the door opening is 20 meters high and 30 meters wide, and there is no city gate to cover it. Because this is the only way to enter the city, and it has to go through a tunnel that is more than 100 meters long, this gate is also called the White Corridor.

The other gate is the road leading from Kongshan City to the gray and white forest, which is also 20 meters high and 30 meters wide, but it is different from the white road on the white gate, this road is full of gray colors. Especially the closer you get to the side of the gray forest, the stronger the fishy smell becomes, filled with a sense of dead silence, desolation, and gloom, which can easily make people feel very oppressive.

Therefore, this Yongdao Mountain Gate is also known as the Gray Gate, symbolizing death and despair.

Because there is no gate, the castle is actually a place where you can enter and exit freely, and with the proximity to the gray and white forest, a place where adventure and opportunity coexist, the entire castle is actually a mixed place. The maintenance of law and order in the city is maintained by several famous families in Kongshan City and the guards sent to Xu Cheng by the Xu family, but because Xu Cheng's strength is insufficient, he cannot suppress the famous families in Kongshan City, so in fact, Kongshan City is all about each family.

Ye Kong didn't wait too long in the gray gate, and when it was just dawn, Xu Qianjun came with a young man who looked like him.

"Hello, I'm Xu Pocheng, and I've admired Brother Hu's name for a long time." The young man who looked like Qianjun smiled very well at the first glance when he saw Ye Kong, "I have already heard about Brother Tiger, and I personally express great regret about this matter. ”

Ye Kong nodded, and did not express himself too enthusiastically, or his attitude was a little indifferent.

However, Xu Pocheng didn't care much about this at all, but began to introduce the trouble encountered by the Xu family to Ye Kong this time. Except for some things involving family secrets, Xu Pocheng did not have the slightest reservation about other things that could be said.

Soon, Ye Kong understood the reason why the Xu family asked the Zhao family for help this time.

The Zhao family and the Xu family have always had various secret transactions, including two offensive and defensive alliances that have formed alliances.

Originally, the overall strength of the Xu family was stronger than that of the Jiao Anluo family, but because of the chaos caused by Ye Kong in Tushan County before, the Xu family had to send a large amount of manpower to Black Mountain City to deal with these problems. And the Luo family, is taking advantage of the Xu family's unprecedented weakness of the opportunity to launch a round of offensive against the Xu family, according to Xu Pocheng's frank words, the current Xu family's Black Mountain City, Jushi City have been attacked by different offensive efforts.

On the side of Kongshan City, because it has not been attacked, the Xu family thought that the Luo family did not look at Kongshan City very much, so under negligence, a batch of goods that were originally to be secretly transported from Kongshan City were robbed by the Luo family.

What is this batch of goods and who is it to be shipped to, Xu Pocheng did not say, of course, Ye Kong did not bother to ask.

What he needs to do is to cooperate with Xu Pocheng to find out the people of the Luo family, and then solve them one by one. In fact, if Xu Cheng hadn't blocked all the courtyards brought by the Xu family on the side of the White Gate, I'm afraid that the Luo family would have succeeded and left calmly, how could they be forced to hide in the gray and white forest.

At least, Ye Kong felt that normal people would definitely not choose to go to the gray and white forest to hide, but would lurk in the empty mountain city. After all, the area of Empty Mountain City is not small, and it is mixed, and once it successfully lurks, it will not be easy to find people.

But the people of the Luo family did not choose this, which can tell the story: it is obvious that Xu Cheng or the Xu family's control of Kongshan City is more stable than people in the outside world imagined. It is even very likely that the Xu family still has a lot of hole cards left in Kongshan City that have not been played.

After the simple exchange between the two sides, Ye Kong set off with Xu Pocheng.

"This time, I am really grateful to Brother Tiger for your help." Xu Pocheng said to Ye Kong with a smile, his tone was frank, his eyes were sincere, and he was not as arrogant and rude as Xu Qianjun at all, "According to the information we have obtained, the other party should be between three and five people, but only one person has entered the Xuan Third Realm, and the rest should be the strength of the Xuan Second Realm." ”

"Are you worried about the other side forming a battle formation?" Ye Kong glanced at Xu Pocheng.

Compared with Xu Qianjun, Xu Pocheng's personality is much more mature and stable, and his speech and demeanor are more in line with the identity of a child of a wang clan, unlike Qianjun, who does not have any good face when he sees Ye Kong's low strength.

"Yes." Xu Pocheng nodded, "The Luo family's three-way attack formation is okay, even if I can't break the formation, I can get out safely, but the four-way attack formation is more troublesome." ”

Ye Kong blinked, and did not express any opinions or opinions on this topic.

In Ye Kong's opinion, the Quartet Attack Formation is obviously easier to break the formation than the Tripartite Combined Attack Formation, because as long as you pick the strongest person, you can break through the formation, and after losing one person to act as the eye of the formation to intercept, the threat of the Quartet Attack Formation is not to be feared, and it can even drag down the opponent through sports warfare. However, looking at Xu Pocheng's appearance, Ye Kong guessed that this guy should have been confused by the main and auxiliary order of the Quartet Attacking Array, so he felt that it was more difficult to break the Quartet Attacking Formation.

"I see." Ye Kong nodded, and didn't say much that had nothing to do with the current identity, "As long as it's a monk who has entered the Xuan Second Realm, leave it to me." …… However, I can only deal with a maximum of three people, and if I am experienced in actual combat, then I can only deal with two. ”

"I'm tired." Xu Pocheng thanked him.

This time, the person sent by the Luo family was not a master, but because of this, the Xu family despised the other party, but they didn't expect to make a fatal mistake because of this. But although the strength of the people on the other side is low, they are only in the Xuan Realm, but they are all experienced veterans, the scene is handled very cleanly, and there are almost no clues left, and in the end, the Xu family used an extremely valuable human price, please use a grandmaster to divinate and divination, and finally found a clue.

But before the Xu family gathered all the men and horses to besiege it, the other party was already frightened by the Xu family's sudden fanfare, and quickly shifted their positions.

It is precisely because of this that the Xu family realized that the other party has few people and it is easy to hide and lurk, and if they look for someone with great fanfare, they will definitely be discovered by the other party in advance. Therefore, I found the Zhao family as a last resort, hoping that the two families could join forces, and only a few elites who entered the Xuan Realm could directly take down these Luo family disciples.

Before, it was Zhao Yun who was in charge of negotiating this matter.

Because he happened to be appointed by the Zhao family to conduct a transaction with the Luo family at that time, after receiving the request of the Luo family, Zhao Yun had no choice but to take command and negotiate directly with Xu Cheng. And Ye Kong's arrival, in the final analysis, can only be said to be a coincidence - although Zhao Yun didn't know what task Zhao Hu had been assigned by the family before, he at least knew that Zhao Hu should not be here at this time.

However, at the moment, the affairs of the Xu family are more urgent, and Zhao Hu is indeed a strong general, so Zhao Yun has to ask Zhao Hu for help.

After understanding the truth of all the things, Ye Kong's face also showed a helpless look.

Everything sounds very complicated, one ring after another, but in fact it is explained in four words: karma.

The culprit of all these problems is none other than Ye Kong himself.
