Guan Xiong laughed, and his beard curled up one after another: "A group of small snakes, insects, rats and ants, if you want to suck Lao Tzu dry, go back and cultivate for another hundred and eighty years!" Lao Tzu just fell from the high level to the middle level in the foundation building period, and when he went back to practice for three more years and five years, he was a living dragon again! ”

When Li Yao heard this, his heart sank.

The way of cultivating the truth is full of difficulties and dangers, and every promotion is extremely difficult, hard work, resources, luck, and chance...... Indispensable.

After many people have cultivated to a certain level, they have stagnated here for the rest of their lives, unable to advance half a step.

Although Guan Xiong understated it, Li Yao knew that it was not so easy to cultivate back from the high level to the middle level in the foundation building stage.

Not to mention three or five years, bad luck, ten or twenty years, or even a lifetime, don't even think about cultivating back.

suffered such a heavy blow, Guan Xiong still did not change his face, talked and laughed freely, and deserved to be a man in the wilderness!

Thinking of this, Li Yao nodded and laughed: "That's right, the heroic scene of Brother Xiong rushing forward against the beast tide is still echoing in my mind at the moment, Brother Xiong is so fierce, not to mention that he just dropped one level, even if he falls to the first level of the Qi refining period, he can still cultivate back!" ”

"Good boy, that's right, I like you!"

Guan Xiong found a bottle of spirits out of nowhere, and bit the bottle with his teeth.

The liquor flowed down his beard into the medical potion, making a "snorting" sound and bursting with bubbles, but he didn't care, and drank it heavily.

Li Yao climbed out of the medical cabin and stood on the ground moving his hands and feet, feeling his new body after becoming a cultivator.

He didn't think something was right, why was his whole body aching and his right eye swollen?

There is a small mirror on the bedside table next to it. When I took a look, I found that my nose was blue and my face was swollen, and my head was swollen like a pig's head.

And there are bandages wrapped around his body, faintly oozing blood stains.

"Could it be a side effect of the awakening of the spiritual root?"

Li Yao was puzzled, he didn't hear that the spiritual root would become a pig's head when it awakened.

Guan Xiong burped: "You don't remember?" You were beaten by a kid named Jiang Tao. ”

"What?"

Li Yao gritted his teeth. "It's just too much deception, can any child of the Jiang family beat people casually in front of the public?"

Guan Xiong was speechless, blinking his eyes, and looked at Li Yao with a very strange look.

Li Yao was furious by him and touched his head. felt that he seemed to have missed a very important matter, and said worriedly: "Brother Xiong, did I say something wrong?" ”

Guan Xiong smiled "hehe", opened the miniature crystal brain, and called up a three-dimensional photo.

In the photo, a bloody monster appeared. It's like a skinned monkey, half-dead, with feces and urine flowing all the way, and only one breath left.

Li Yao was taken aback: "What kind of demon beast is this, it looks so ugly, it makes people sick for a long time to look at, Brother Xiong, what do you mean?" ”

Guan Xiong said: "This is not a demon beast, this is Jiang Tao." ”

Li Yao was stunned: "Jiang Tao? How could he ......"

"What do you say? It's not like you've beaten me yet! ”

"Me?"

Li Yao was speechless for a long time. After being stunned for a while, he vaguely remembered that it seemed that he really made the first move, and the young master Jiang was just a legitimate defense. And after only two rounds of defense, he was powerless to fight back, and let him ravage like a three-year-old child.

Guan Xiong was surprised:

"You kid is really cruel enough, but you are a first-level cultivator in the Qi refining period who has just been promoted, and you can beat the third-layer cultivator in the Qi refining period to the point that you are not human-shaped, and you are still lying in the intensive care ward! Look at how you look. It's also Svenwen, I didn't expect to be so berserk when I launched a madness! ”

The corners of Li Yao's mouth twitched. Gently clench your fists.

He finally remembered that his first punch slammed into Jiang Tao's face. Smash his nose all the way into his face.

The thrill of blood splattering and bones bursting is wonderful.

Guan Xiong smiled:

"Boy, you are so impulsive, you beat a Jiang family disciple like this, it's too late to regret it."

"Regrets?"

Little by little, Li Yao slowly recalled the whole thing, and also recalled what Jiang Tao had said.

His expression gradually changed from confused and hesitant to indomitable determination.

"Brother Xiong, you were wrong, you beat Jiang Tao to the point of and urinating...... It's not that I'm impulsive, and I don't regret it. ”

"Oh?" Guan Xiong raised his eyebrows, like two war knives out of their sheaths.

Li Yao clenched his fists, straightened out in front of him, felt the spiritual energy running through the meridians, strengthening the muscles, and the pleasure burning in the fist, and said word by word:

"Whether it is Ding Yin's seven cultivators, or Brother Xiong, in order to save the lives of a carload of people, you know that you will definitely die, or you go forward and fight to the end, you are all heroes, and you are my Li Yao's life-saving benefactor!"

"Now that someone is calling my savior an 'idiot' in front of me, how can I swallow my anger and be a turtle with a shrunken head?"

"If you don't beat him in the head, if you don't beat him to the point of and urine, I'm not even a man, what kind of cultivator can I be!"

"Jiang Tao wants revenge, although it's good to come, I grew up in the magic treasure tomb, and the people who want to kill me are not one or two, I was surrounded by more than a dozen strong men with machetes when I was seven years old, but now, I am still alive!"

Li Yao's eyes showed a touch of fierceness, and he said with a smile:

"Originally, I wanted to use the nickname 'Demon Star' to walk in the Great Wilderness, but Jiang Tao really wanted my little life, and I didn't mind letting the famous name of 'Vulture' resound throughout the Great Wilderness!"

Guan Xiong was moved, slapped the medical cabin hard, leaving a three-point handprint on the metal shell, and shouted: "Good boy, it's a man, you are a friend, Lao Guan has made a deal!" ”

After a pause, he smiled again, "But you don't have to worry, this time you kid is lucky, there was a monitoring probe on the roof behind you at that time, although the sound collector was broken, it could still monitor the picture, according to Jiang Tao's mouth shape in the picture, the expert recognized what he said, that is, everything he said was recorded." This kid has touched the bottom line of the cultivator, he is dead, and the Jiang family can't protect him. ”

"The bottom line of a cultivator?" Li Yao was stunned.

Guan Xiong nodded and explained:

"That's right, although in the circle of cultivators. There are rules such as 'protecting ordinary people is the duty of cultivators' and 'the blood of the strong should be shed for the weak', but after all, not every cultivator is willing to die generously without hesitation. ”

"If a cultivator escapes from the battlefield at the time of great calamity, although it is more difficult to hear the word out, it is not easy for others to say anything other than morally condemning him, after all, life is precious. No one is inherently obligated to sacrifice for others. ”

"However, Jiang Tao not only escaped from the battle by himself, but also insulted the cultivators who sacrificed their lives afterwards, and even threatened you, this kind of behavior violated the bottom line of cultivators!"

Guan Xiong took a deep breath. Sighing:

"In the vast universe, in the endless sea of stars, in addition to our human race, there are many powerful races - demon races, demon paths, extraterritorial heavenly demons, not to mention all kinds of strange starry sky alien races."

"The reason why our human race was able to conquer these evil outer paths and stand at the strongest peak of the universe was precisely because cultivators and ordinary people united as one and lived and died together. Fight! ”

"Although cultivators are powerful and have a long lifespan, their number is too small. And there are all kinds of restrictions on the use of psionic energy. ”

"Although ordinary people have poor combat power, they are numerous and have strong fecundity, which can support a large-scale interstellar civilization across the star field."

"Not to mention, the vast majority of cultivators are born from ordinary people. And among the descendants of cultivators, there are also a large number of ordinary people. ”

"Cultivators are fish. Ordinary people are water; The cultivator is a tree, and the ordinary person is the solid earth. In a word, the huge number of ordinary people is the foundation that supports the cultivation realm, and without ordinary people, the cultivation realm will completely collapse! ”

"Let's just say that the hedron battleship suspended above our heads, although it was designed and refined by cultivators, but in the manufacturing process, it also needs thousands of ordinary workers to assist, not to mention the supporting series of large industrial systems, all of which have been established by ordinary people!"

"If it weren't for the efforts of hundreds of millions of ordinary people, and without a powerful interstellar civilization as the foundation, how could we, cultivators, refine simple flying swords at most, how could we refine so many large-scale super magic weapons, and how could we create such a brilliant cultivation civilization?"

"If Jiang Tao's words are spread and heard by tens of billions of ordinary people in the Federation, to put it mildly, it will cause dissatisfaction among ordinary people and increase the hostility of ordinary people towards cultivators; To put it more seriously, it will lead to the split between the cultivators and the ordinary people, and the foundation for the existence of the federation will be gone, so why should we compete with the demon race, the demon path, and the starry sky alien race? ”

"It's even hard to hear, if your cultivators are a bunch of gutless bandits, the best scum, what's the difference between them and demon cultivators? If Lao Tzu is an ordinary person, it would be good to go directly to the demon cultivator, what else do you want you to do as a cultivator? ”

"These truths, the elders of the Jiang family must have also told Jiang Tao, but this kind of wealthy child, who grew up in a greenhouse, has never experienced wind and rain, and is used to flying and domineering, where will he take these words to heart?"

"There is a big incident this time, there must be trouble waiting for him, you don't have to worry too much."

After listening to this, Li Yao breathed a long sigh of relief and concluded:

"I see, what Brother Xiong means is that you can choose to be a coward, but you can't take cowardice and cowardice as a matter of course after becoming a coward, and turn around and insult heroes - this is the bottom line of cultivators, right?"

Guan Xiong gave a thumbs up: "That's right, the summary is in place." ”

Li Yao is now an ignorant rookie in the cultivation realm, and he also wants to ask Guan Xiong for some insider information and rules in the cultivation realm.

The tent was suddenly opened by a female major with a cold temperament, she swept around, and her gloomy gaze stayed on Guan Xiong's hand.

Guan Xiong's face changed, and the wine bottle disappeared suddenly.

He looked at the female major with an innocent face.

The female major snorted lightly and said coldly: "I'll clean you up later!" ”

As he spoke, he threw a set of combat uniforms without insignia towards Li Yao: "Put it on and go with me, he wants to see you." ”

"Who?"

Li Yao blinked, but didn't ask, honestly put on his combat uniform and followed behind the female major.

When he walked to the door of the tent, Li Yao stopped and asked Guan Xiong one last question:

"Brother Xiong, when you single-handedly rushed into the overwhelming beast tide just now, did you really not expect to die?"

Guan Xiong grinned, took out the wine bottle out of nowhere, took a big sip, squeezed his eyes, and said, "Boy, I don't want to be a cultivator for something as boring as 'immortality'. ”

"If it's not for immortality, then why?" Li Yao asked.

"Of course, it's for the pleasure of riding a thousand and killing all directions!"

Guan Xiong laughed, drank all the liquor, "click, click", even chewed and swallowed the wine bottle, and his tense beard was full of debris. (To be continued) R580
