Chapter 259: Preconceived
Although Li Xiuping himself didn't feel anything, if he continued like this, these academy disciples would definitely have problems, so he had to find a way to solve this trouble at the moment.
It is now certain that time here is not fluid, at least not day and night, which means that this will always be the case.
How to solve this problem has become an extremely troublesome matter.
Li Xiuping suddenly looked at the wine jug on his waist.
The wine in the jug can directly restore the body's wear and tear, which Li Xiuping can say can be said to have personally experienced, originally these academy disciples may not be able to withstand the energy of the wine, but at the moment it has been lost, and it will continue to be consumed, so drinking less should not be a problem.
Li Xiuping took off the wine jug on his waist, and planned to let a disciple with the highest cultivation try it first, if it was feasible, he would try them one by one, if not, he could only find another way.
Li Xiuping handed the wine jug in his hand to one of the highest disciples, and said, "Try this, drink less." ”
The disciple took it with some confusion, and without hesitation, took a sip.
As he drank the wine, Li Xiuping kept staring at him, for fear that something would happen.
Soon, the disciple was amazed: "Uncle Xiao, this wine is really amazing, all the losses in my body have been replenished, and I feel full of strength." ”
When everyone heard this, they were stunned.
Their biggest problem now is the loss of true qi in their bodies, as long as the whole problem is solved, this desert is not a big deal for them.
Li Xiuping handed the wine jug to the next person and said, "Pass it down in turn, and drink less for those with a low realm." ”
Everyone passed the wine jug in turn, and after drinking it all, they returned the wine jug to Li Xiuping, and their faces were full of shock.
After Li Xiuping took the wine jug, he hung it around his waist and said: "This can only solve the urgent need, if you want to solve this trouble, you still have to figure out the situation here first." ”
Everyone nodded their heads.
Li Xiuping glanced left and right, and then the pitch-black dragon appeared out of thin air, and then Li Xiuping jumped directly on the top of the dragon's head and said, "Come up, it's not a way to go." ”
Everyone didn't hesitate, and they all jumped on the pitch-black dragon.
After that, the pitch-black dragon carried everyone up in the air, straight in one direction.
Li Xiuping did not relax at all, and kept releasing his divine sense, feeling the subtle changes around him.
After flying like this for a while, the pitch-black dragon stopped leisurely, and Li Xiuping also frowned.
It didn't work before, and it seemed that they had been spinning in place, so they wanted to see if they could get out of this place, but now it seems that it doesn't work, and they are still spinning in place.
Li Xiuping can now be sure that this should be a formation, a bit similar to the phantom formation he encountered when he participated in the Immortal Ascension Conference.
Huang Qing asked, "Little Uncle, what's wrong?" ”
Li Xiuping asked, "Do any of you have a formation?" ”
Everyone looked at each other, then shook their heads.
Seeing everyone shaking their heads, Li Xiuping's face became more and more bitter.
They don't even know how to enter the formation, and it will only be more difficult to break the formation, the key is that they don't understand the formation.
Li Xiuping was suddenly stunned and asked, "Do you know how to leave?" ”
He asked the pitch-black dragon when he said this, so the pitch-black dragon nodded.
Seeing the pitch-black dragon nodding, Li Xiuping was overjoyed, and then let the pitch-black dragon move forward freely.
As the pitch-black dragon circled in mid-air, a huge whirlpool appeared in the desert below, similar to the whirlpool that came in from outside.
After the whirlpool appeared, the pitch-black dragon carried everyone directly into the whirlpool.
As everyone walked through the whirlpool, they found that the surrounding situation was no different from before, it was still an endless desert, but it seemed to be different, what was the difference, Li Xiuping couldn't say it for the time being.
The pitch-black dragon did not stop, carrying everyone on, and after a while, it was no longer a desert, but some stumps similar to ancient ruins.
The pitch-black dragon slowly stopped, and Li Xiuping also jumped directly and fell to the ground.
As everyone in the academy fell, the pitch-black dragon turned into a streamer and landed on Li Xiuping's shoulder.
Li Xiuping looked at the people in the academy and asked, "How do you feel?" ”
Everyone in the academy shook their heads at the same time.
Seeing everyone shaking their heads, Li Xiuping breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that this place will not be the same as before, it will consume the cultivator's true qi.
Li Xiuping opened his mouth and said, "Follow me." ”
Everyone nodded and followed Li Xiuping closely.
As he continued to move forward, the surrounding scene gradually changed, and a figure gradually appeared in front of him, which was the disciples of the major holy lands who had entered the ruins before.
Everyone gathered at the moment, as if they were looking at something.
Li Xiuping walked up with the people of the academy, and after squeezing into the crowd, he saw a long staircase in front of him, and he didn't know where it led, and on both sides of the staircase, there were two fierce beasts standing, as if guarding the staircase.
Seeing Li Xiuping and others coming, the expressions of the five holy places were different, some people chose to stay away, such as Taiyi Pavilion and Stargazing Tower, and some people chose to get closer, such as Incense Burner Mountain and Butterfly Valley, and Drifting Snow City chose to be completely neutral.
It is very understandable that Butterfly Valley is close to Li Xiuping, after all, Li Xiuping has a connection with the demon clan, which is not a secret in the cultivation world now, and Butterfly Valley is the only demon clan force in the Seven Holy Lands, and it also has a lot of grievances with Taiyi Pavilion, and now that he has entered the ruins, if there is no helper, it is difficult to ensure that there will be no problems.
Taiyi Pavilion and Stargazing Tower were obviously going to deal with Li Xiuping, so if they contacted Li Xiuping at this time, Li Xiuping would most likely not refuse, which was also something that their Butterfly Valley elders deliberately explained before they entered the ruins.
After the little monk from Xianglu Mountain approached Li Xiuping, he lowered his voice and said, "Master Li, what do you think is the strength of those two fierce beasts?" ”
Li Xiuping glanced at the two fierce beasts and said softly: "There should be a Yuan Infant Stage Cultivation." ”
He continued: "Since there is no attack, it should be held back by something, so as long as you don't get close, there shouldn't be any danger." ”
At this time, a woman from Butterfly Valley spoke: "Here's the trouble. ”
Li Xiuping was stunned.
The woman continued, "Do you see that staircase, only from there can you enter the depths of the ruins?" ”
Li Xiuping frowned slightly.
The white-clothed little monk continued: "I heard that Master Li Shi can kill the Yuan Infant Stage powerhouse, so it should be no problem to kill the two Yuan Infant Stage Demon Beasts, right?" ”
Li Xiuping glanced at the disciples of the other three holy lands and said with a smile: "Then I can't be the only one who can help." ”
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then followed Li Xiuping's eyes, and instantly understood Li Xiuping's thoughts.
The little monk in white said: "In this way, we have seven holy lands, but in fact, there are only six holy places that come in, there are exactly three on our side, and three on their side, each dealing with a fierce beast, what does Master Li think?" ”
Li Xiuping thought for a moment, nodded and said, "It's better to be like this." ”
Before he could continue, the little monk in white walked towards the people in Taiyi Pavilion, and then directly explained his attitude to the other party, although Taiyi Pavilion and Stargazing Tower hesitated, they did not refuse, and nodded in agreement.
After discussing the countermeasures, the little monk ran back, smiled on his face, and said to Li Xiuping: "The negotiation is complete, the left belongs to them, and the right belongs to us." ”
Li Xiuping nodded and said, "After they make a move, you go directly to the stairs." ”
Everyone in Butterfly Valley and Incense Burner Mountain was stunned, only everyone in the academy nodded.
The little monk in white frowned and asked, "You really don't need our help?" ”
Li Xiuping nodded.
The little monk in white said with a smile: "Fortunately, I admitted defeat at the beginning." ”
After speaking, I discussed with those fellow disciples in the incense burner mountain, and the situation was similar to that of Butterfly Valley.
After everyone had agreed, they approached the staircase at the same time.
As Li Xiuping said before, as long as they didn't take the initiative to approach the two fierce beasts, the two fierce beasts would not take the initiative to attack, and as everyone approached the two fierce beasts and entered the attack range of the two fierce beasts, the two fierce beasts attacked at the same time.
The six holy places, divided into two sides, rushed towards the two fierce beasts at the same time.
On the side of Taiyi Pavilion, everyone sacrificed the magic weapon at the same time, directly attacking the fierce beast, Li Xiuping's side, although everyone also sacrificed the magic weapon, but did not attack, but as a defense, and the target was not the fierce beast on the right, but the ladder.
As the fierce beast approached everyone, Li Xiuping killed it at once, and swung the firewood knife in his hand directly towards the fierce beast, and at the same time used the power of the impact to avoid the fierce beast at some distance, and fight with others for time to walk up the stairs.
As Li Xiuping fought with the fierce beast, the people of Guanchao Academy, Butterfly Valley, and Incense Burner Mountain also climbed the steps directly, but they did not climb directly to the height, but turned their heads to look at Li Xiuping.
After Li Xiuping forced the fierce beast back, he pulled out the long sword in his hand, and then slashed out horizontally with a sword, forcing the fierce beast back a few zhang away.
Seeing that Li Xiuping completely suppressed the fierce beast, everyone no longer hesitated, turned around and ran directly towards the steps.
After Li Xiuping forced the fierce beast back again, he didn't change other moves, nor did he take out any other weapons, but repeated that sword repeatedly, and it looked like he only had that sword.
Now in this situation, Li Xiuping has to guard against it, at least the background on his body can't be fully displayed, otherwise let the Taiyi Pavilion and the Stargazing Tower know that he will no longer have any hole cards to speak of.
Although he is not afraid of these guys, he always has to think about the people of the academy, he can keep more hole cards, and when the other party really wants to make a move, he can also catch the opponent off guard, and give the academy everyone a chance to reduce the danger.
On the other side, everyone joined forces to besiege the fierce beast, relying on all kinds of powerful supernatural powers, but they were at ease, so they couldn't help but pay attention to the situation on Li Xiuping's side.
When they found out that it was only Li Xiuping who was dealing with the fierce beast alone, and the others had already gone up the ladder, they all frowned.
They knew that the monks of the incense burner mountain were not well-intentioned, so they could enter the ruins first, and they would be able to get more treasures earlier, thus improving their ranking.
Everyone no longer paid attention to Li Xiuping, but focused on the fierce beast and attacked with all their might.
Only by quickly dealing with this beast can they enter the ruins faster and make up for the time they have lost.
Everyone looked at each other, and then attacked with all their might, almost nothing was hidden, and in an instant, the fierce beast was powerless.
Although it is a fierce beast in the Yuan Infant Stage, because of the reason it is controlled, its strength has actually been greatly reduced, otherwise it would not have been defeated so quickly.
After the group of people defeated the fierce beast, they did not mean to kill the fierce beast, but rushed directly towards the stairs, obviously wanting to leave the fierce beast to Li Xiuping.
Although this time is a good time to deal with Li Xiuping, but before coming in, the elders of the sect have already instructed, the main purpose of this time is to get more treasures, and dealing with Li Xiuping is only secondary, at least there must be no damage.
These disciples are the future of the major holy lands, so naturally they can't be folded in this ruin.
No matter what force or person, the first consideration must be their own interests, and if the reward of a thing is not as good as the loss caused, then this thing must not be done.
Killing Li Xiuping is indeed a very important thing, especially for Taiyi Pavilion, but if Li Xiuping is killed, but there is no successor to the entire Taiyi Pavilion in the future, then this matter must not be done, not to mention that no one dares to guarantee that Li Xiuping will be killed.
If Li Xiuping was not killed, and the juniors of their respective forces suffered heavy losses, then this matter could not be done.
Li Xiuping didn't seem to expect that the guys would run directly up the ladder, leaving the other fierce beast to himself, you must know that this will be the case, he will not hide it all the time before, but defeat this fierce beast one step ahead of the other party, and then leave this fierce beast to those people as well.
Although the two fierce beasts will not cause much damage to each other, the loss of a few spirit treasures is definitely inevitable, which can also reduce the threat posed by this group of people.
It's just that now that he thinks about this, it's too late after all, and the beast is also rushing directly towards him.
It is now certain that the main purpose of these two beasts is to stay here, otherwise people will approach the stairs, and once they have climbed the stairs, the two beasts will not attack again, just as they had done when they had been here.
The reason why Li Xiuping didn't defeat or kill the fierce beast before was because he felt that the guys in Taiyi Pavilion would definitely not let go of this opportunity to deal with him, but now it seems that Taiyi Pavilion may really want to kill him, but the heart to kill him is not so strong, otherwise Taiyi Pavilion will definitely not give up the previous opportunity.
It is not a bad thing to be able to know Taiyi Pavilion's attitude, so that in the future, as long as he can show enough deterrence, the other party will definitely not act easily, so he can protect the safety of everyone in the academy.
As long as the other party doesn't make a move......
Li Xiuping retracted his thoughts, forced the fierce beast back with a sword, and turned to deal with the other fierce beast while focusing on the top of the stairs.
After the guys from Taiyi Pavilion went up the ladder, they didn't climb up directly, but stayed to watch the situation on his side, obviously trying to determine his strength.
Li Xiuping didn't continue to hide too much, his left hand was raised slightly, and a golden light appeared in an instant, and then countless bamboo slips circled around his body, and then smashed directly towards the fierce beast before.
As these bamboo slips fell, the fierce beast was directly and completely suppressed, unable to move.
Li Xiuping's mind moved, and a flying sword appeared out of thin air, and at the same time, sword intent continued to pour into the flying sword, and then the flying sword directly rushed towards the other fierce beast, and it actually directly penetrated the huge body of the fierce beast.
Seeing this scene, the people on the steps did not hesitate any longer, turned around and quickly climbed up the stairs.
Seeing these people leave, Li Xiuping also directly took back those bamboo slips, and did not mean to kill the other fierce beast, but directly turned into a streamer and went directly up the stairs.
When Li Xiuping was dealing with the fierce beast before, when he stopped thinking, a thought actually appeared in his mind.
Anyway, whether it is Taiyi Pavilion or Stargazing Tower, they all want to deal with him, so why don't he strike first and take the absolute initiative?
Anyway, the grudge between him and Taiyi Pavilion has already been settled, and it has reached a situation where it is endless, the reason why the encounter can still be so dull now is only because of the conference of the Seven Holy Lands, but because it is in Drifting Snow City, and it needs to take care of the City Lord's Mansion, and of course, it also needs to take into account the predecessor of the Sword Saint.
As for the stargazing building, since you want to meddle in this matter, you must be prepared, if you don't make a move now, it doesn't mean that you won't make a move in the future, and you can't always put yourself in a passive position just because the other party doesn't make a move.
Now that they already know the attitude of Taiyi Pavilion and Stargazing Tower, since they are also afraid of themselves and are afraid of loss, then they can take advantage of this opportunity, with their kind of heart, to completely dominate this ruins, and they can find an opportunity to get rid of them one by one.
Since it is a threat, you can't wait for the threat to come to your door before thinking about how to deal with it, and if you can solve the threat in advance, there is no reason not to grasp it.
If he was the only one, he wouldn't have to think about it so much, but now he still had to take care of those disciples of the academy, and the best way to not let those disciples of the academy be in danger was to solve all potential threats before the other party made a move.
As Li Xiuping continued to climb, he got closer and closer to everyone.
The ladder is not wide, it can only accommodate about three people side by side, at most four, if he kills all the way up now, he will definitely be able to deal a heavy blow to the strength of these two families, but Li Xiuping did not make a move.
It's a great opportunity, but it's not the best.
First, in addition to the Taiyi Pavilion and the Stargazing Tower, there is also the Drifting Snow City, the Taiyi Pavilion needless to say, anyway, it is already a never-ending situation, it doesn't matter if you kill a few more, the Stargazing Tower will also shoot at itself sooner or later, and it is no problem to do it first, the Drifting Snow City is different.
This is the base camp of Drifting Snow City, if you really want to kill the disciples of Drifting Snow City, even if the Sword Saint senior is there, I am afraid that I will not be able to guarantee my safety, after all, Drifting Snow City also has a saint in charge, and it is in Drifting Snow City.
Second, once the other party discovers the situation in the rear, he can completely choose to take the sky, after all, they are all Jindan period monks, and once the other party reacts, they will not be able to get absolute benefits under the joint forces, and everyone in the academy will also be in danger.
In other words, this matter has to find another chance.
