In the city of thorns, in the private school, the students are reading aloud in unison with immature voices.

"Heaven and earth are yellow, and the universe is desolate. The sun and the moon are shining, and the Chensu column is ......"

Dressed in a dark blue robe, with a long beard in one hand and a book behind his back in the other, Mr. Teacher paced slowly and listened to the students read.

The son of the mason Lao Ma, Ma Fugui took the shoddy printed book and read it seriously, his eyes were very focused.

He cherished this hard-won opportunity to study.

Compared with other students, his conditions are much more difficult, because his family is poor, but he believes that as long as he works hard, he will not be worse than others!

Outside the private school, Lao Ma carried a toolbox and deliberately turned around from a distance to stop here temporarily.

He didn't see his son, but he could accurately distinguish his son's voice from dozens of voices.

Every time he heard this voice, he felt full of energy again.

"Stinky boy, it's not a bad read."

The old horse smiled on his wrinkled face, and then walked to the place where he was working with ease, and his steps were much lighter.

……

Thorn City, City Lord's Mansion, Alchemy Room.

Li Qingling stood in front of the alchemy furnace, carefully controlling the flames with his true qi, the sweat on his face dripped down his cheeks and fell to the ground, and was quickly roasted dry.

After the Chinese New Year, she had gathered enough raw materials for refining third-order pills, and in order to refine third-order pills and become a third-order alchemist, she hadn't gone out for a long time.

"This time it must be successful!"

A third-order Qi Condensing Pill was spinning in the alchemy furnace, its shape was irregular and not rounded.

Under the wrapping of true qi, the flame slowly scorched the Qi Condensing Pill, and in the rotation, the impurities on the Qi Condensing Pill peeled off little by little, and the shape slowly became regular and round.

The incense slowly became rich over time, and gradually, even the outside of the alchemy room could be faintly smelled.

After a passing servant smelled this incense, he only felt refreshed and refreshed, and couldn't help but stop outside the alchemy room.

Finally, the surface of the Qi Condensation Pill in the alchemy furnace became extremely round, and even condensed a layer of waxy luster, and the aroma was gradually restrained, and circles of lines appeared on the Qi Condensing Pill, which was very beautiful.

Li Qingling wrapped the pill with true qi, then opened the outlet of the alchemy furnace and took out the Qi Condensing Pill from the alchemy furnace.

She carefully observed the lines on the elixir, lowered her head and sniffed again, and then exclaimed excitedly.

"Great, successful!"

"I'm a third-order alchemist!"

Li Qingling jumped up in the alchemy room excitedly, for this moment, how much effort she put in, how many hardships there were, only she knows.

Because of this, after the pill was successfully refined, the excitement in her heart was beyond words.

Third-order alchemists, although they are not a rare existence, they are enough to make the big forces pay attention to them, especially Li Qingling is still so young, and his future prospects are simply limitless.

"Squeak......

Li Qingling put away this precious third-order Qi Condensing Pill with the jade box and pushed open the door of the alchemy room.

"Congratulations to Miss Li for becoming a third-order alchemist."

Li Qingling saw Gu Bei with a smile on his face at first sight, and knew that he rushed over when he heard the sound, and he was a little embarrassed in his heart, he shouted too loudly just now.

However, joy needs to be shared, and at times like these, she is happy to share it with someone who is happy to get along with.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness, you see, this is the Third-Order Qi Condensing Pill."

Li Qingling opened the jade box, and a round, pale green condensing pill was lying quietly in the jade box.

"The Qi Condensing Pill can help people who have just embarked on the path of cultivation to condense their true qi, even if they have slightly inferior qualifications, relying on the Qi Condensing Pill, they will have the opportunity to become a first-order cultivator."

After listening to Li Qingling's explanation, Gu Bei's eyes lit up, in this way, as long as the Qi Condensation Pill was enough, wouldn't Thorn City be able to give birth to first-order martial artists in batches?

Gu Bei shouted loudly: "Old Lu, prepare a banquet and celebrate Miss Li's becoming a third-order alchemist!" ”

"Okay, the old slave will arrange it immediately!"

The housekeeper Lao Lu happily went to the back kitchen to arrange a banquet.

After Li Qingling was excited, she finally had time to take a look at her image, and she said embarrassedly: "I didn't care about it when I was alchemizing." ”

"The banquet needs time to prepare, don't worry, Miss Li can go and freshen up first."

Gu Bei left the alchemy room with a smile, and he was in a very happy mood.

Li Qingling also returned to his room, took a comfortable bath, changed into clean clothes, and then went to the banquet.

On the same day, Li Qingling made an exception and drank some wine at the banquet, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

……

The southeastern border of the Holy Dragon Kingdom.

"Roar!"

A huge bear as huge as a mountain, carrying a monstrous demonic aura, roared and rushed forward, and when it ran, the ground shook the mountain.

"Whoa!"

Above the sky, there was a cyan dragon that rolled up the water of a small river, treading the waves, and countless water demons followed it.

"Kill!"

Countless demons and monsters rushed forward frantically, and there were hundreds of thousands of people, and the demonic aura was overwhelming, like dark clouds, covering the sun.

"Array!"

On the side of the Holy Dragon Kingdom, hundreds of thousands of troops set up a formation to fight against the demon clan.

"Fireball cart ready!"

"Put!"

The spirit weapon fireball carts made of fine iron, like cannons, shot countless huge fireballs, cutting through the sky and smashing towards the overwhelming demons and monsters.

"Boom, boom!"

After the fireball landed, it exploded suddenly, forming a sea of fire, burning countless little demons crying and screaming.

"Roar!"

Above the sky, the Frog King roared suddenly, carrying a river of water to rush towards the army of the Holy Dragon Kingdom, and when it was about to approach, the dragon's tail swung and threw all the water towards the fireball cart.

"Boom la la ......"

The fireball wagon that was being fired was swept away by the river and could not be fired again.

At the same time, the Frog King landed with countless water tribe demons, and his huge body swept away a large area, and countless soldiers were crushed into meat puree.

"King Qingjiao, Hugh is rampant!"

There was an eighth-order cultivator holding a spiritual weapon, and he immediately killed the Frog Jiao King, and the two fought in the air, the true qi and the demon qi collided, and the roar in the sky continued.

However, there is not only one frog king on the demon clan's side, the other demon kings are also extremely fierce, and the little demon is even more fearless of death.

On the battlefield, the army of the three princes could only rely on those war spirit weapons to support it, and the whole was down, and it would not be long before it was defeated.

"Retreat!"

Seeing that the soldiers were dying more and more, the hearts of the three princes who were watching the battle in the rear were cold, and they decisively ordered to retreat to the city.

The soldiers ran to the back one after another, and the demon clan behind them chased and killed frantically, and this retreat, many people died and lost a large number of spiritual weapons.

"Open the Great Array!"

The third prince gritted his teeth and ordered, and one fortress after another erupted with terrifying beams of light, forming a thick light curtain that temporarily blocked the demon clan from the outside.

"Boom!"

The demon king of the demon clan slammed into the light curtain fiercely, and the spirit stones in the fortress were consumed at a terrifying speed.

As long as these spirit stones are consumed, when the time comes, the demon clan will be able to drive straight in.

"Your Highness, there are too many demon clans, and the border can't be defended, so let's retreat to the big city and hold on!"

"Yes, otherwise, when the big array is broken, it will be difficult to leave."

Looking at the constantly trembling light curtain, as well as the countless demons and monsters outside, the staff of the three princes were frightened and advised the three princes to retreat.

However, retreating means abandoning the vast territory of the border, and the people in it will also be slaughtered by the demon clan.

If you don't withdraw, with the strength of the three princes, you really can't hold it, unless reinforcements from the Dragon Tooth City arrive.

The third prince's face was cloudy, and his heart was very struggling, and after a long time, he said with difficulty: "Withdraw...... Withdraw ......"

All the soldiers shouted as if they had been granted amnesty: "Withdraw!" ”

More than 100,000 troops abandoned the border, blocked the demon clan with the help of a large array, and then retreated in a hurry or by flying boat, or on horseback, or on foot.

"Cowardice, soft bones, hahaha......"

Among the demon clans, the major demon kings laughed arrogantly and continued to bombard the big array, and things went much smoother than they expected.

Soon after, the light curtain burst openly, and the demon army drove straight in, wantonly slaughtering the Terrans on the border, snatching all resources, and then moving on......
