Chapter 20: The Mysterious Uncle (I)
When the outside world was talking about Lu Yan's sentence "The Bird's Nest Knows the Ambition of the Bird", Lu Yan had already entered the deeper part of the Longyan Cave.
As Yue Chaoli walked about a kilometer or so, Lu Yan met fewer and fewer people along the way. Most of the people were immersed in silent cultivation, barely paying attention to Lu Yan who passed by. Those people were all drumming up and down with a powerful prestige, Lu Yan smacked his tongue, it can be seen that the strength of these people is far from being comparable to those who refine the body martial arts. Judging from the energy fluctuations on their bodies, Lu Yan estimated that the strength of these people should be above the Qi Cultivation Realm.
Lu Yan counted slightly, there were about fifty people within a radius of tens of meters around here, and the distance was only five or six meters, but they did not interfere with each other.
After counting the number of people, Lu Yan's heart could no longer be calm, he didn't expect that there were so many Qi Cultivation Mirrors gathered in a small Longyan cave of the Lu family, you must know that the vast majority of these people are not cultivating Tianyan Technique, they are only cultivating here to temper their physical bodies. As for why Lu Yan knew this, it was because he had sensed it covertly just now, and he didn't find any person with the aura of Tianyan Jue. So this is also what Lu Yan was most shocked about.
This is only the number of people in the Yanlong Cave, so those Qi Martial Arts who did not come must be more. Although the population of the Lu family is nearly tens of thousands, it is still much beyond Lu Yan's imagination to have so many qi martial artists. On the Cang Mang Continent, the higher the human race's cultivation actually becomes, the more difficult it becomes, and it requires a lot of resources to support it, and in a place like Longzhou Mansion, if it is those ordinary casual cultivators outside, it is very difficult to cultivate to the Qi Cultivation Realm, because they don't have enough resources. A martial artist who cultivates the Qi Realm is enough to be a commander who leads a thousand armies in the city guard army of Longzhou Mansion. Perhaps only a force like the four major families could have enough resources to cultivate so many martial artists above the Qi Cultivation Realm, which also gave Lu Yan a deeper understanding of the strength of the big family.
It seems that he has to continue to work hard, Lu Yan sighed, and the Evergreen Technique in his body worked slightly, and then continued to walk deeper.
After advancing for nearly 100 meters, the temperature of the surrounding air had reached a terrifying level, and even a closer look could reveal that the surrounding space had even begun to distort slightly. At such a temperature, I'm afraid that most of the peak martial artists of body refining can no longer withstand this kind of scorching heat. Perhaps only a martial artist who practices the qi mirror can withstand it, because after the martial artist reaches the qi training realm, he can release his aura to form a qi cover.
But Lu Yan believed that even if he practiced the Qi Realm, he wouldn't be able to last long. Or only those acquired martial artists can stay here, and even these acquired martial artists have to fight with all their strength to resist such temperatures.
The clothes on Lu Yan's body were already soaked at this time, and now Lu Yan had burst out with the strength of all his sixth-layer body refining, but he still felt very uncomfortable. After avoiding the conflict with Lu Qiang just now, he decisively stopped running the Evergreen Technique, but wanted to see how far he could support it with his own strength alone, but now he already felt that this was his limit, and at this moment, Lu Yan's location was about 1,000 meters away from the entrance of Longyan Cave. Wiping the sweat on his face, Lu Yan took a deep breath, and then silently ran the Evergreen Technique.
When the meridians of the Evergreen Jue were running in the body, a trace of coolness instantly spread throughout the body, and the surrounding heat wave was like hitting a wall and being isolated around Lu Yan's body.
When he was no longer oppressed by the fiery air, Lu Yan carefully looked around. Only then did I realize that there was no one around. At this time, Lu Yan nodded relaxedly, and then continued to walk inside quickly, after all, Lu Yan at this time didn't want others to know the secret of his cultivation of the Evergreen Technique.
Ever since he cultivated the Evergreen Technique, Lu Yan had been deeply shocked by it, this Evergreen Recipe was absolutely precious, especially for those who had cultivated the Heavenly Flame Technique, and it would definitely be a temptation that would be difficult to refuse. If those people knew, they would definitely try their best to snatch it from Lu Yan, which made Lu Yan have to use it carefully.
While urging the Evergreen Jue to guide the wood attribute vitality fused in the muscles to nourish the body and resist the surrounding heat waves, Lu Yan continued to run the Tianyan Jue to absorb the surrounding fire attribute true qi. Under Lu Yan's deliberate control, the two true qi formed a wonderful balance.
Just when Lu Yan walked about two hundred meters away from his destination, he suddenly found a strange old man in a cyan robe sitting cross-legged on the edge of the wall on the left, his eyes closed, his clothes were already covered with a thin layer of dust, and he couldn't sense the slightest breath.
Suddenly discovering someone, Lu Yan felt a little surprised in his heart. However, Lu Yan still calmly continued to move forward, and after about a few minutes, he finally came to a place about 10 meters away from the old man, and he could no longer continue to move forward, so he had to stop.
It's not that Lu Yan doesn't want to continue to move forward, but at this time, Lu Yan suddenly found that there was an invisible wall in front of him that isolated him and blocked his way. This situation made Lu Yan feel unbelievable, when did this kind of abnormality appear here? You must know that there was no such situation when he came last time, could it be.... Looking at the still motionless old man in front of him, Lu Yan suddenly guessed.
Lu Yan tried a few more times, but it was still in vain, so he had to step aside in frustration and look at the old man curiously.
Under careful observation, I saw that the old man was sitting upright on a gray jade futon, with a dignified face, his hands flat on the root of his thighs, his eyes closed, and surrounded by a mass of fire vitality visible to the naked eye, these fire vitality seemed to have fallen into an endless abyss, frantically pouring into the old man's body, and the top of his head was constantly steaming.
Lu Yan's face was frightened, and he felt strongly shocked and unbelievable by the old man's crazy absorption of fire vitality, because in his understanding, he had never thought that a person could absorb fire vitality so crazily. You must know that in addition to being synonymous with rage, fire vitality also has a reason why all martial artists in the world have to be afraid. That is, the fire vitality is with fire poison without tempering, and a martial artist who cultivates fire martial arts is much stronger than a person in the same realm in the early stage, but the longer the cultivation time, the more fire vitality is absorbed, and the fire poison in the body will accumulate more and more.
For this fire poison, many martial artists have thought of countless ways before, but none of them have been able to completely solve this problem, at least in Longzhou Mansion, Lu Yan has not heard of anyone who can solve this trouble. Especially for a big family like the Lu family, which uses the Tianyan Jue as the Zhen clan exercise, they have also studied it for thousands of years, and they have only come up with a method that is not a solution, that is, all those who cultivate the Tianyan Jue must stop practicing the Tianyan Jue for a period of time every time they break through a great realm, and then take a special detoxification pill to remove the fire poison from the body while relying on their own internal force to detoxify. To say that the method that the ancestors of the Lu family thought of is actually quite effective, but it also has a relatively big flaw, that is, the time it takes to clean up the fire poison in the body will vary with the strength of the person, the stronger the strength, the more time it will take. This invisibly affects the time that a martial artist can really use for cultivation.
Therefore, for the old man in front of him to swallow and suck wildly, Lu Yan opened his mouth wide, his eyes flashed, and his face showed an expression of disbelief, and at the same time, he also admired this old man's cultivation method.
Lu Yan tried to sense the strength of the old man, but the facts told Lu Yan that his current strength could not see the strength of the old man at all. But when Lu Yan's eyes turned to the old man, there was a sudden throbbing in his heart, and he felt a strong sense of oppression all over his body, and this invisible momentum even made Lu Yan's body involuntarily take a few steps back.
At this moment, Lu Yan clearly felt that the air around him seemed to be frozen, and breathing began to become extremely difficult, in the face of this situation, Lu Yan had to hesitate to expose his own strength, urging the vitality of his whole body, and burst out with a strength that was much stronger than the sixth layer of ordinary body refining to resist this momentum.
But soon Lu Yan became a little depressed, because even if all his strength exploded at this time, he still couldn't resist this sense of oppression. Under the pressure of this powerful momentum, Lu Yan's face was flushed, the muscles of his whole body were bulging, his legs had begun to bend a little, and the sweat on his face continued to flow down, and after a while, a small puddle formed on the ground.
Although Lu Yan was almost desperate at this moment, he was still shocked by the old man's powerful strength, because the most terrifying thing was that the old man had never opened his eyes during the whole process, and the surrounding fire vitality was still pouring towards the old man's body, and the momentum that caused such a strong sense of oppression to Lu Yan was only unintentionally exuded by the old man himself.
"It's so fucking terrifying!" Lu Yan scolded fiercely in his heart. Lu Yan was sure that even his grandfather, who had reached the ninth layer of the day after tomorrow, was not as strong as the old man in front of him. And as far as Lu Yan knows, his grandfather is the number one master of the Lu family.
But now that Lu Yan has met a person here who is stronger than his grandfather, Lu Yan can't help but be shocked. Could it be that the old man in front of him is not from the Lu family, Lu Yan has already started brainstorming in his mind. "But that's not right," Lu Yan clearly felt that the momentum emanating from the old man now contained the unique aura of Tianyan Jue. You must know that the Tianyan Technique can only be cultivated by the descendants of the Lu family, so Lu Yan judged that this old man should
