Countless monsters continued to attack, and all they used were saint methods, and for a while, the sky fell apart and roared.

After making sure that these monsters would not escape, the city lord of Martial Emperor City also directly joined the battle.

With this Mahayana powerhouse joining, the battle situation instantly became one-sided, and those monsters not only couldn't get close to Li Xiuping, but they couldn't even break through the encirclement of those saints and sages, and then they were killed one by one.

This lasted not long, and all the monsters were slaughtered.

After making sure that nothing was missing, all the strong men returned to Li Xiuping's side and removed the defensive barrier on Li Xiuping's body.

The city lord of Martial Emperor City asked with a smile, "Is Gongzi Li okay?" ”

Li Xiuping shook his head and said indifferently: "Fortunately, the juniors have a hard life, and the two powerhouses in the merge period and a monster have not been able to kill the juniors." ”

Hearing this, the city lord of Emperor Wu City looked a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "I didn't make it clear to Li Gongzi before, it is indeed the problem of the old decay, if Li Gongzi wants to blame, it is good to blame the old decay alone." ”

Li Xiuping waved his hand and said: "Forget it, I won't agree if I really want to say it, even my senior brother calculates me, what can I say." ”

Qi Wenxing also looked embarrassed at this time, and said with a smile: "Isn't it okay, and even if you use that nothing card in the secret realm, I can get there in an instant, and I will definitely be able to ensure that you are safe and sound." ”

The sage of Taiyi Pavilion asked directly at this time, "What news did Gongzi Li get in the secret realm this time?" ”

Li Xiuping nodded and said, "Go back to Qingming senior and tell you, I'm scared if I stay outside now." ”

Saying that, he glanced at He Feng, and then said to the city lord of Emperor Wu City: "What plans does the city lord have with your seniors, I don't want to know, but after all, the girl is innocent, I hope the city lord will ......."

He then changed his words: "Forget it, I don't have much to say as an outsider. ”

After saying that, he walked in the direction of Emperor Wu City, and he really didn't want to stay with these old foxes any longer.

After Li Xiuping returned to Emperor Wu City, He Feng was still in charge of Li Xiuping's diet and daily life, and everything was the same as before, as if nothing had happened. As for whether the city lord of Emperor Wu City said anything to He Feng, Li Xiuping didn't ask, and he didn't want to know too much.

Curiosity is inevitable, but Li Xiuping really doesn't want to involve himself in the war with the demons.

For a long time in the future, nothing happened in Emperor Wu City, and Li Xiuping went to the library to read books every day in addition to refining the pill, and chatting with the old man in the library pavilion. However, the old man in the Library Pavilion also left Martial Emperor City soon to verify the method of replacing the martial soul with the beast soul.

After that, Li Xiuping began to help the Wudi City side to cast the sword, during which the woman in Tsing Yi and the little red girl returned, but soon received a call from the Qingqiu Mountain, and went west to the White Emperor City, I heard that it seemed that the White Emperor City had suffered a demon invasion.

Almost at the same time, news also came from the Drifting Snow City in the north, the same was the invasion of the demons, so that the Sword Washing Pool, the Drifting Snow City and the Incense Burner Mountain also went to the north, but there was no news from the Shenjiang City in the south.

In this way, on the contrary, Emperor Martial City, which was the first to spread the news of the demon race, was safe, and those saints and sages also left one after another, going to the other three cities to support, and when Li Xiuping successfully cast the second immortal sword, Emperor Martial City had already been empty, leaving only the Qingying Monk, Bai Xue Monk and the Taixu Daoist.

The Qingming Monk stayed to wait for Li Xiuping, while the Bai Xue Monk and the Taixu Daoist needed to stay in charge of the defense of Martial Emperor City, after all, the Martial Emperor City side could not only let Martial Emperor City defend.

Martial Emperor City is still safe now, so Li Xiuping has no intention of leaving, and he really doesn't know where to go now, so he can just wait for the old man in the library pavilion to see if the method of turning the beast soul into a martial soul is feasible, which can also explain the condition of his body and prepare for the condensation of the martial soul in the future.

If this method is feasible, then he should be able to condense the martial soul and achieve the martial arts primordial infant in the future, if not, then he will have to find a new way.

Now that the pitch-black dragon has been integrated into the Yuan Dan, there is no need to refine the pill to awaken it, so Li Xiuping's main goal now is to awaken another self.

Although she has now successfully refined the elixir and forged the fairy sword, showing her role in this world, and all forces will spare no effort to protect her safety, but this time when she came out of the secret realm, Li Xiuping got some information related to the demon race.

If the Demon Dao can really solve the Ascension, then any force may become the next Stargazing Tower, and his situation will still be just as dangerous at that time, after all, judging from the attitude of the Stargazing Tower, the Demon Clan really wants to get rid of him.

In other words, except for a very few forces that can be trusted, any other force may become his enemy, so if you wake up another self as soon as possible, your own safety can be guaranteed to the greatest extent.

Besides, now that the whole world is in chaos, all forces are too busy to take care of themselves, who can take care of him.

In fact, it is precisely for this reason that Li Xiuping does not want to be involved in things related to the demon race, because that would be tantamount to being directly exposed to the eyes of those monsters.

In this way, Li Xiuping stayed in Emperor Martial City for about three months, either forging swords or alchemizing pills every day, anyway, whatever was needed here in Emperor Martial City, he would refine it, as long as Emperor Martial City could provide materials, he would have no problem.

After this period of continuous refining, Li Xiuping found that not only did the power contained in his Yuan Dan become more and more powerful, but the willow tree in the Spirit Sea had also completely recovered, breaking through the spirit crystal of the fourth and fifth layers.

As the fifteenth layer of spirit crystals was broken, the sixteenth layer of spirit crystals also began to take shape, making Li Xiuping a monk who built the sixteenth layer of the foundation.

On this day, the old man of the Library Pavilion, who had disappeared for several months, returned, and as soon as he came back, he went directly to Li Xiuping with a smile on his face.

There is no need for this old man to say anything, Li Xiuping can see everything from his expression, it is obvious that the use of the beast soul can indeed condense the martial soul, or if you want to condense the martial soul, you must first fuse the beast soul, as for what more methods are needed, obviously the old man tried many times to find a way, otherwise it would not have taken nearly half a year to come back.

Before the old man could speak, Li Xiuping took the lead and said, "Congratulations to the seniors for successfully condensing the martial soul." ”

The old man waved his hand and said with a smile: "If it weren't for Li Gongzi, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to find a way in this life." ”

Li Xiuping shook his head with a smile and asked, "Seniors have suffered a lot this time, right?" ”

The old man nodded and said, "If you can succeed, it will be worth the hardship." ”

He continued: "Now that the martial soul has been successfully condensed, I am afraid that if you want to continue to ascend in the martial arts, I am afraid it will only be more difficult, so I hope to be able to communicate more with Li Gongzi in the future." ”

Li Xiuping nodded and said: "This is natural, if you don't meet the seniors this time, the juniors will not be able to successfully condense the Yuan Dan, since the path of martial arts needs to be explored, those two people are much better than one person." ”

This sentence seemed to speak to the old man's heart, and he nodded again and again: "That's what old decay means." ”

Li Xiuping saluted the old man and said: "It is a blessing for the younger generation to meet and get acquainted with the seniors. ”

The old man also replied: "Encouragement." ”

He Feng suddenly ran over at this time and said, "Master Li, the master asked you to go over, saying that there was something to discuss." ”

Li Xiuping was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.

During this period of time, regarding the matter of the demon clan, the city lord had never discussed with Li Xiuping, at most, he just asked Li Xiuping to help cast some swords or refine some pills, and the two of them had very few opportunities to meet.

If you suddenly want to call yourself over at this moment, there must be something really wrong.

Although Li Xiuping didn't want to get involved, he couldn't refuse, so he asked, "Did you say what it was?" ”

He Feng shook his head.

Li Xiuping said, "Let's go." ”

As he spoke, he followed He Feng out of the residence.

He Feng did not bring Li Xiuping to the meeting hall of Emperor Wu City, but took Li Xiuping to the study of the city lord of Emperor Wu City, it was obvious that there would not be too many people in this discussion, it was likely that there would only be Li Xiuping and the city lord of Emperor Wu City.

After entering the study, Li Xiuping found that there was really only one city lord of Emperor Wu City in the study.

After He Feng brought Li Xiuping with him, he saluted and prepared to leave, but was stopped by the city lord of Emperor Wu City, and He Feng turned around and closed the door.

Li Xiuping saluted to the city lord of Emperor Wu City and asked, "The city lord called the juniors alone, I don't know what to order?" ”

The face of the city lord of Emperor Wu City looked a little heavy, and he motioned for Li Xiuping to sit down, and said, "Sit down and say." ”

Li Xiuping sat opposite the city lord of Emperor Wu City, and He Feng also walked up at this time to make tea for the two of them.

The city lord of Emperor Martial City spoke: "Now a large number of demons have appeared in the four cities of White Emperor City, Drifting Snow City, and Shenjiang City, only Emperor Martial Emperor City is safe, originally I thought that the demon clan would definitely not take Martial Emperor City as a target, but the previous seal suddenly loosened, I am afraid that in a few days, Emperor Martial Emperor City will also become the fourth battlefield." ”

Li Xiuping's brows couldn't help frowning.

The city lord of Emperor Wu City continued: "Now the other four cities are in danger, the White Emperor City has Qingqiu Mountain and the entire demon clan to resist, but there is no problem, Drifting Snow City also has the help of the incense burner mountain, and Kunlun Mountain has also gone to the Shenjiang City in the south, but this Martial Emperor City does not have any assistance now, once the demon clan invades, the consequences are unimaginable." ”

Li Xiuping frowned and said, "But what can the juniors do?" If the city lord lets the juniors cast swords and alchemy, the juniors are naturally duty-bound, but if the juniors go to fight against the demons, with the strength of the juniors, it would be good to be able not to add to the chaos. ”

The city lord of Martial Emperor City waved his hand and said: "This is not true, it's just that since Li Gongzi knows how to deal with the demon clan, he may also know how to strengthen the seal, so I want Li Gongzi to take a look at the seal and see if he can get some information about the seal from the inheritance that Li Gongzi obtained." ”

Li Xiuping couldn't help but be stunned.

The city lord of Martial Emperor City continued: "Now the entire cultivation world is simply unable to support the four battlefields at the same time, so it is good that the Martial Emperor City side can delay for one more day, as long as the situation in the other three places can be alleviated, even if the Martial Emperor City side also becomes a battlefield, it will not be as passive as it is now." ”

Li Xiuping does have a inheritance, but whether there is a way to strengthen the seal in that inheritance, Li Xiuping doesn't know, the key is that if those inheritances want to be unlocked, they must be revived by another self, otherwise forcibly obtaining those inheritances will not benefit Li Xiuping.

But this matter is quite troublesome to explain, so Li Xiuping can only nod. Promised to go with this city lord to see the so-called seal, and when the time came, he would just say that he had no choice.

Seeing Li Xiuping nodding, the city lord of Emperor Martial Emperor City said to He Feng: "Go and ask your senior brother and sister to prepare." ”

He Feng responded and walked out.

After He Feng left, Li Xiuping asked casually: "...... girl He and the demons?"

The city lord of Emperor Wu City sighed and said, "This matter is a long story, if you want to explain it clearly, you have to start with the seal." ”

Li Xiuping was stunned.

The city lord of Emperor Wu City continued: "In the four directions of this world, there is a passage that communicates with the demon world, but the four passages are all sealed, guarded by the four cities and four generations, and the seal will give birth to a baby girl every thousand years, and the people of the demon path will call it a holy woman, and this baby girl is the key to opening the channel." ”

Li Xiuping was stunned for a moment, and said in amazement: "Miss He is the baby girl?" ”

The city lord of Emperor Wu City nodded, and said: "If it's just like this, it's not troublesome to deal with, as long as it is killed at the beginning of its birth, but this baby girl not only has the power to open the passage, but also has the power of sealing, so the four cities have been ensuring that this baby girl will not have any contact with the demon clan over the years, and suppressing the power of the demon path with the power of the seal can ensure the stability of the passage seal, for thousands of years, these two forces have been fighting against each other, one is the other, and now the power of the seal is weakened, and the power of the demon path is soaring, That's where we are now. ”

Without waiting for Li Xiuping to speak, he continued: "This time, let her follow you to the secret realm, firstly, if she is in contact with the demon clan or not, she can no longer suppress the power of the demon path, so I used her as bait, intending to lure out the saint in the stargazing tower, but I didn't expect to attract only some of the strong people in the merge period." ”

Li Xiuping said bitterly: "It's good that it's just a strong person in the merger period, otherwise the current corpse of the younger generation is afraid that it would have already rotted." ”

The city lord of Emperor Wu City didn't seem to expect Li Xiuping to care so much about this matter, but he didn't say much, and he was very able to understand Li Xiuping, after all, it was difficult not to care about anyone who was so calculated, you know, it was a gamble with his life, and if anything went wrong during the period, it would be a death.

The city lord of Emperor Wu City continued: "Second, it can be regarded as a broken jar, anyway, things can't be worse, it's better to let her contact with the demons, maybe she can get unexpected gains, it turns out that she has indeed obtained the inheritance of the demon clan, and it has helped a lot to strengthen the seal." ”

Li Xiuping asked, "Then what will happen to her in the future?" ”

The Martial Emperor City Lord shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.

Li Xiuping didn't seem to care much about the answer to this question, but said: "I didn't expect that a seal could give birth to a living person, it is really big in the world, there is no wonder." ”

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but think of himself.

To this day, he still doesn't know anything about his background, where he came from, who his parents are, there is no information at all, all the people related to him are not clear, and the only person who may know that Mr. Ouye is still dead.

Could he be like He Feng and others, born from some kind of power between heaven and earth?

It sounded appalling and unbelievable, but he really didn't know what could be better than that.

But what is the specific situation, the only person who may give Li Xiuping an answer should be the wine fairy, if he doesn't even know the wine fairy, then this doubt in his heart will also be an unanswerable question, unless he can bring Mr. Ou Ye back from the dead, and then get the answer from his mouth.

In this way, Li Xiuping was even more curious about what kind of existence the so-called seal was, and it could actually give birth to a living person.

The city lord of Emperor Wu City got up and said, "Let's go." ”

Li Xiuping also got up, and then followed the Martial Emperor City Lord out of the study, and then left the City Lord's Mansion directly, and continued eastward, until he came to the seaside.

On the cliff of the coast, there are countless powerhouses of Martial Emperor City sitting at this moment, each of them holding the same seal knot in their hands, and where these powerhouses are sitting, runes are lit up one after another, and these runes are connected to each other to form a larger rune.

In addition to these sitting powerhouses of Emperor Martial City, He Feng and several men and women were also standing aside at this moment, and after seeing the City Lord of Emperor Martial City and Li Xiuping, they saluted at the same time.

The city lord of Emperor Wu City directly led Li Xiuping to the edge of the cliff, and the sea below suddenly began to tumble, as if the sea water was directly separated by some force, and then a huge whirlpool directly appeared, and from that whirlpool, there was an aura of ancient vicissitudes.

Stairs of light emerged from the cliff and spread out into the whirlpool.

After these stairs appeared, the Martial Emperor City Lord walked up directly, down the stairs, and walked towards the whirlpool.

Li Xiuping followed, and He Feng and those men and women also followed.

Walking to the end of the stairs, Li Xiuping found that under the seawater, there was a space of its own.

A huge clearing with stone tablets engraved with names on top of the clearing

These steles form a huge circle, and in the middle of this circle is a huge stone carving, which is actually carved into a giant sword.

On the giant sword, countless iron chains were entangled, and then fixed in the surrounding earth, and on those huge iron chains were carved runes, just like the runes on the giant sword.

Around that giant sword, there were countless powerhouses of Martial Emperor City sitting the same, and they were all holding a seal knot just like those powerhouses above, and there were runes on the ground that lit up.

Li Xiuping and others were standing in front of the giant sword at this moment.

Some people died, but not completely......
