This retreat took Ji Yuan a month and seven days.

When he opened his eyes again, he slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, and there was a flash of light in his eyes, and there was also a brilliance on his skin and flesh.

Now his aura is sharp, like a long sword out of the sheath, and sword qi emerges with every breath and breath.

In just a moment, all the abnormalities on his body dissipated, and he returned to that ordinary appearance, and even his cultivation fell from the peak of the Enlightenment Realm to the middle of the middle stage.

This trick has been used by him perfectly, and it is extremely difficult to see the slightest clue below the three realms.

"Still a little behind......

After a long time, Ji Yuan sighed and muttered to himself.

Now in his lower dantian, an azure-colored seven-story Xuantian Spirit Devouring Pagoda was slowly rotating on the majestic and pure essence, swallowing the essence in his body and the wisps of spiritual energy around him.

It can be said that every moment, this tower is refining and increasing its cultivation, although the progress is very slow, but over time, it is also a large accumulation.

And in the depths of the tower, a round demon pill bloomed with brilliance, from the initial blood color, now it has successfully transformed into azure color.

It's just that on this demon pill, there is a trace that obviously looks a little illusory, which makes the spiritual energy in it not run smoothly.

Ji Yuan estimated that if he wanted to completely repair this demon pill, it would take a long time in the future, and he would need to use his own cultivation little by little, as well as various spiritual materials, to continuously cultivate and refine them.

And only by completely repairing the damaged part of the demon pill can this treasure be regarded as truly refined.

After feeling his own state, he got up and opened the quiet room, and immediately saw Xia Dong waiting outside.

This girl, who was a year or two older than herself, moved a futon at some point, and meditated cross-legged outside the ashram, not only to protect the Dharma for her, but also to facilitate her own service.

"Childe."

Seeing that he had finished his retreat, Xia Dong hurriedly got up and gave a salute, and said sweetly, "Congratulations to Gongzi for his cultivation!"

Naturally, it was impossible for her to see how Ji Yuan's cultivation was now, and whether this retreat had gained anything, but it did not affect her to say a few words of joy and auspiciousness.

"What's going on lately?"

He walked to the guest hall in the room, leaned back in the chair where the Lord was sitting, and asked casually.

Xia Dong skillfully brewed a pot of hot tea for him, and at the same time told him about the things that had happened for more than a month.

Seeing something that made his expression move, the girl changed her words and explained the matter in detail, which can be described as very intimate.

This said, Xia Dong said that it was an hour and a half, and finally what happened when Ji Yuan was in retreat, roughly speaking, a change, during which the two drank a pot of spiritual tea together.

"Childe, Haohanlou sent an invitation a few days ago, and in addition to the Qian family's one, one was specially sent to the courtyard."

She took out an invitation and placed it respectfully on the table.

Ji Yuan opened the invitation, and the content in it was roughly an invitation to participate in the trade fair, and the date was three days later.

"Eat as much as you want."

He glanced at Xia Dong, who always couldn't help but look at the pastry preserves, and said casually.

Hearing this, Xia Dong grinned, and was not polite to him, picked up the pastry and took a small bite, and then squinted with an indescribable satisfaction.

Ji Yuan shook his head, his gaze fell back on the invitation card in his hand, and his face was thoughtful.

Haohanlou specially sent an invitation to the courtyard, obviously knowing his existence, and this move was also to express the importance of it, otherwise it would only be necessary to send one to the Qian family.

However, this is not surprising, after all, even other forces basically know that Qian Nishang is by his side, and he has helped the Qian family through the current crisis.

And the business is all over Luoxia County and several surrounding counties, and the vast building is known for being well-informed, so there is no reason not to know about it.

It's just that the other party's move is not only to express the importance of him

See, it is also a small move to deliberately separate him from the Qian family, a little differentiation.

If he guessed correctly, as long as he went with this invitation, he would be openly and secretly solicited by the vast building, but if he shared an invitation with Qian Nishang, nothing would happen.

"It's a bit annoying to have a twist and turn between these forces."

Ji Yuan couldn't help but sigh, if he had less heart, maybe he would be pinched by the other party because of a trivial matter.

Shaking his head, he casually threw the invitation to the side, and a wisp of sword qi suddenly emerged from the invitation, tearing it into a pile of tiny pieces.

Seemingly inconspicuous little things, if you don't pay attention, it will leave a little imperceptible gap in his heart with Qian Nisheng.

In the eyes of some people, this small gap will be infinitely magnified and become the basis for prying everything.

Maybe he's thinking too much at the moment, but it's better to be more cautious about some things, it's better than something that is difficult to remedy.

"Childe, this is the list of trade fairs sent to each house by the vast mansion."

Seeing that he ruined the invitation, Xia Dong did not hide the smile on his face, and took out a thick fold: "The list of the vast building is divided into three grades, which is the highest grade."

Ji Yuan glared at her angrily, and then took the list.

He knew in his heart that if he hadn't ruined the invitation, she would naturally not have taken out this list, the key was that the other party was unscrupulous, as if he was not afraid of him getting angry at all.

But for this matter, he really won't be angry.

As for the list, there are hundreds of items from the trade fair, and in addition to indicating the order of appearance, they are more or less accompanied by a concise description.

Haohanlou made a total of three lists, the lowest grade is only the items in the first half, and the slightly better ones include the second half.

Only the highest-grade ones listed the few precious spiritual objects that finally appeared, as well as the finale of the fair.

As for the last pressing table, it is on any list, there is no mark and hint, except for a few high-rise buildings in the vast building where the trade fair is held, no one knows about it.

There are only some big forces that can roughly guess a few spiritual objects based on some clues.

"This time, all forces are speculating that the final pressure may be a relic of an ancient immortal, or a rare technique that is directly aimed at the golden pill, or even a stone contaminated with the essence blood of the phoenix."

Xia Dong said with a straight face.

Naturally, these news were not something that she could hear at will as a little maid, and it was obviously Qian Nishang who specially explained it to Ji Yuan.

As for the first two speculations, Ji Yuan didn't feel anything after hearing it, whether it was a magic weapon or a practice, he didn't lack anything, even if the things that appeared at the trade fair would be better than his cultivation, there wouldn't be much excitement.

In the forces of true lineage and order, from the beginning of their practice, their disciples will be profoundly taught by their elders a truth, the stronger the exercises and magic weapons, the better, the first requirement is the most suitable avenue for themselves.

Only by satisfying this as much as possible can we pursue its own quality.

Whether it is the Xuantian Sword Technique or the Nine Yuan Heavy Water Sutra, they are already very suitable for his own lineage, and there is no need to replace them at present.

Maybe when the cultivation comes up in the future, you can replace the Nine Yuan Heavy Water Sutra with a more advanced exercise.

It was the stone that was stained with the blood of the phoenix essence that made his mood fluctuate for a moment.

Legendary creatures such as dragons and phoenixes have been in this world for tens of millions of years, and no trace has been heard, and even many monks suspect that they have become extinct.

But it is undeniable that the essence and blood of such creatures contain endless wonderful uses!

According to legend, a drop of the phoenix's essence blood can not only give birth to human flesh and bones, but also make the monk reborn, endow him with a high talent for fire, and improve his own qualifications and physique.

If it is obtained by the demon beast of the fowl, it can purify its own bloodline and thus come out

The phenomenon of atavism is now evolving towards the phoenix bloodline.

"I heard that this time, some demon clan monks even appeared, just for this stone."

Xia Dong said with a solemn face.

Hearing this, even Ji Yuan couldn't help but be stunned, and then secretly stumped in his heart.

In the laws of the Dayu Dynasty, all demon clan ghost cultivators are not included in the forbidden list, as long as they are not riddled with sins, they have never harmed living beings, and they are even allowed to occupy land as kings and multiply.

Of course, on the bright side, these demon clan ghost cultivators must respect the rule of the Dayu Dynasty, and they must pay tribute every year and obey the call of the imperial court.

It's just that the law is the law, and the vast majority of Terran monks don't want to see these aliens from the bottom of their hearts, and the extremists regard them as a moving treasure trove.

In such an environment, the general demon clan also tries to go out as much as possible, does not contact the world of the human race, stays in their own mountains and practices silently, and occasionally goes out for a walk, all in the deep mountains and wilderness.

But he didn't expect that this trade fair in Haohanlou would be able to attract some demon clans, which is rare even in the city.

"Do you want to go to the square area of the vast building, although the trade fair has not started yet, it can be regarded as extremely lively."

Xia Dong suddenly changed his tone and asked with an expectant face.

The eleventh annual trade fair is naturally extremely grand, but in the days before that, the square area of the vast building is also very lively.

Even the things that appear here may not be worse than the finale of the trade fair, but whether they can be met depends on luck and personal ability to pick up leaks.

As soon as these words came out, Ji Yuan did not immediately refuse or agree, but looked silent.

Now he has no shortage of exercises, magic weapons and other things, and the spiritual materials he will need in the next few years have already been prepared, not to mention that Qian Nishang still has a due reward.

And in the fang area of the vast building, it must be a mixture of fish and dragons at this moment, and the monks of all forces and sects, plus countless mountain and wild cultivators, as well as the demon clan who came to hear the wind, will be involved in a bunch of cause and effect if they don't pay attention to it.

In his opinion, there was no need to take such a risk.

Who knows if behind an inconspicuous cause and effect, there will be any catastrophe of life and death?

"Let's go to Mingxin Xuan and find a host first."

Ji Yuan thought for a while, but decided to go out for a walk.

On the one hand, he needs to replace the useless things on his body with something else.

On the other hand, it is also to get back a piece of the spoils that belong to him after the destruction of the Li family this time.

As for whether to go to the Fang District of the Haohan Building, then I will wait for the above things to be dealt with before he will say another.

However, to Ji Yuan's surprise, he didn't see Zhao Yuansong and the others when he went out this time, they neither sat in the courtyard nor practiced in the meditation room.

Even his own master, senior brother, and apprentice Zhao Yuebai were not in the courtyard.

"They've all gone to the Fang District?"

He asked, turning his head.

Xia Dong nodded, these days everyone does often go out together, sometimes to go to the Fang District, sometimes to the bustling neighborhood where mortals are.

However, the Qian family sent a few second realms and more than a dozen first realms to accompany them, so there was no need to worry too much about comfort in the county town.

"Thanks."

Ji Yuan bowed slightly, he naturally knew how short of manpower the Qian family was now, but he still sent a lot of people to ensure the safety of his relatives and friends.

This favor was remembered by him, and he was also a little moved.

"You should say this to the head of the family by yourself."

Xia Dong said with a smile.
