Dark clouds cover the top, as if they want to swallow the whole heaven and earth. Thunder weaved through it, glittering with golden light, like dragons roaring in the dark sky. The power of the thunder shook the heavens and the earth, as if it could tear through the void and shock people's hearts.

On the eve of this storm, in a deep cave, a blood cocoon lay quietly on a broken altar.

It was beating constantly, and each beat was as if a heart was violently beating in it.

Suddenly, a golden thunderbolt fell from the sky, pierced through the heavy earth, and rushed directly into the cave. The golden thunder slammed into the blood cocoon with a deafening roar.

Bloodcocoon suddenly stretched out a long knife. The long knife was cold and sharp, and it slashed the golden thunder with a single sword.

The shattered thunder still baptized the blood cocoon, and the blood cocoon was finally extinguished into black smoke. The black smoke swirled in the air and was quickly absorbed by a woman. The woman had no strands, her long hair fluttering, and her skin was as delicate and smooth as snow. Her face is delicate, like a fairy descending to earth.

On top of her snow-white skin, a tattoo of a ghost Jiao was clearly visible. The tattoo seemed to have life, rising and falling slightly with her breathing. It was a ferocious ghost Jiao, and its eyes were fierce, as if it could devour everything.

With the absorption of black smoke, the woman's aura changed drastically. The power of the dragon in her body fused with the Yin Ghost Qi to form a completely new power—the power of the Ghost Jiao. This kind of power contains not only the fury and majesty of the dragon, but also the gloomy and weird ghostly energy. On her body, the power of the true dragon and the power of the ghost king blended with each other, as if forming a mysterious power field.

In the next moment, the woman clenched the long knife and rushed into the air like an arrow. Her momentum was like a rainbow, as if she was about to tear the whole sky apart. Her target is the ink-thick clouds. That cloud of calamity contained endless heavenly power and destructive power, as if it was about to swallow the entire heaven and earth.

However, the woman did not stop there. She has a nimble body, and every dodge is just right. Her long knife slashed through the air with cold light, and each counterattack was incomparable. Although the thunder was strong, it was as fragile as a cut tofu under her long knife.

In this fierce battle, the woman was constantly baptized by thunder. Her body continued to grow stronger under the bombardment of thunder, as if every tempering was reborn her. Gradually, a ghost Jiao Jin Dan condensed on her body. That golden pill exuded a mysterious and powerful power, echoing the ghost Jiao tattoo in her body, as if it had become a source of her strength.

In the end, the heavy clouds were finally completely cut through by her. She stood high in the air, her long knife pointing at the sky, and her momentum was like a rainbow.

After fifty years of cultivation, Zhao Ling'er finally broke through the shackles of cultivation and became a third-order monk.

Even if his cultivation level was higher, Zhao Ling'er could feel Li Shuidao's unfathomable terrifying strength like an abyss and a sea.

A gray light fell to the ground, and Zhao Ling'er said respectfully: "Master, Ling'er has successfully advanced to a third-order cultivator. ”

There was endless joy in her voice.

Li Shuidao smiled slightly, and his eyes revealed his approval for Zhao Ling'er. He threw it casually, and a beautiful overalls long skirt fell on Zhao Ling'er's body. The dress was woven from celestial silk and embroidered with delicate moire and star motifs, like a work of art.

Zhao Linger stood up and put on the long dress. The long skirt fits closely, perfectly outlining her graceful figure. She bowed to Li Shuidao again and thanked her: "Thank you master for the clothes." ”

Li Shuidao nodded, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

He said softly, "Ling'er, it's not easy for you to break through the third order. From then on, you will step into a new realm of cultivation. You and Xia Ruoxue are cultivating the Jindan Dao together, there is no ready-made cultivation method in this world, and you can only rely on your own groping to move forward. ”

When Zhao Ling'er heard this, her face showed a faint joy, and she responded modestly: "Being able to break through to the third order, Ling'er is already satisfied, and she doesn't dare to ask for a higher realm." ”

"I am fortunate to have gained, and I have lost my life, this is the nature of Taoism." Li Shuidao nodded and expressed his appreciation for Zhao Ling'er's mentality.

Then his expression suddenly became serious, and he asked, "What secret do you have?" Why does Li Tian want to extinguish your mouth? ”

Zhao Ling'er was slightly stunned, and then said in a low voice: "Is it Li Tianjue who wants to deal with me?" No wonder...... Enlightening the master, a strange beast appeared in Scorpion Valley. ”

Li Shuidao raised his eyebrows, revealing an interested look: "Oh? Is that beast a beast body and a beast soul, or a beast body and a human soul? ”

Zhao Ling'er replied: "It should be a beast body and a human soul." ”

Li Shuidao pondered for a moment and analyzed: "Alien beasts are extremely cunning, even if they are beast bodies and beast souls, they will run away once they are discovered. What's more, it's a more cunning beast body and human soul, what is the origin of this strange beast? What are some heels? ”

Zhao Ling'er continued: "That strange beast is a scorpion girl, half human and half scorpion, and her strength is strong. ”

A hint of curiosity flashed in Li Shuidao's eyes: "Oh? How did you find her? ”

Zhao Ling'er replied: "That scorpion girl accepted some low-level monks into her virtual realm, and even let those low-level monks form a joint cultivation with the scorpion female monsters produced by her own virtual realm. Perhaps she felt that these low-level monks were completely able to control them, and she even put some monks out to the outside world to do things for her. But I didn't expect that one of them secretly handed over the news to the overseer, and when Li Shuihong received the news, our secret hall naturally received it at the same time. Naturally, I came to report the news to the master as soon as possible, but I didn't expect Li Shuihong to be so bold and reckless that he would dare to rob and kill me halfway. ”

After listening to Zhao Ling'er's narration, Li Shuidao fell into deep thought.

After a long time.

Li Shuidao said with a serious face: "You can be regarded as a blessing in disguise this time, although Li Shuihong made a move on you, but the person behind it must be Li Tianjue, I will personally find Li Tianjue and ask him to make due compensation to you." If you're not satisfied, it's never too late to seek revenge on them. ”

Zhao Ling'er lowered her head slightly, and there was a tremor in her voice: "Ling'er is grateful, and everything is subject to the master's arrangement." ”

Li Shuidao nodded with satisfaction, after all, the Li family was infighting, and he was unwilling to expand the matter, and it was best to turn a big thing into a small thing.

"In that case, then let's go to Scorpion Valley and discuss your compensation with Li Tianjue." Li Shuidao said with sharp eyes.

"It's up to the master to decide." Zhao Linger clenched her fists and said.

……

Scorpio Valley.

It is an extremely deep canyon pit, and there are scorpion demons in the canyon pit, and all kinds of cultivation resources are quite abundant.

The deeper the canyon, the greater the danger, and the deepest part is actually an underground cave, dark and full of insects.

In a dimly lit cavern that was extremely secret, the air was filled with a faint poisonous mist, as if every breath was full of danger.

On weekdays, the cave is extremely quiet, but now it is noisy.

The three major immortal cultivators of the Scorpion Valley gathered here, and the Li family, the Zhu family, and the An family were fighting fiercely around the precious spirit stone veins.

Most of the monks of the Li family are dressed in white, with cold faces, and most of their companions are poisonous snakes and geckos, and there is a hint of femininity in the content.

Li Haohan, the elder of the Li family, stood at the front, his eyes were like ice, and his gaze swept sharply over the Zhu family and the monk of the An family on the opposite side.

"Ladies of the Zhu family, friends of the An family, why should we tear our faces for this benefit?" Li Haohan's voice was cold and majestic, as if with an unquestionable sense of oppression.

The monks of the Zhu family and the An family have hideous faces, and their cultivation methods are mainly based on golden scorpions, and they are good at using poison darts and flying swords.

Zhu Yantian, the patriarch of the Zhu family, snorted coldly and replied disdainfully: "Li Haohan, your Li family has been monopolizing the spirit stone vein for a long time, it's time to get a piece of our pie." ”

The Great Elder of the An Family, An Phantom, smiled slightly, and a sly light flashed in his eyes: "Two Patriarchs, why rush for a while? We can slowly negotiate and find a solution that satisfies everyone. ”

Li Haohan sighed when he heard the words and said: "Li doesn't understand what the two of you are talking about, what kind of spirit stone mine, our Li family is just mining some ordinary resources here." ”

When Zhu Yantian heard this, he immediately became angry: "What else are you Li family pretending? This matter is already known to passers-by! Our Zhu family is not easy to mess with, if you refuse to give in, then don't blame us for being polite! ”

An Phantom added fuel to the side: "Two patriarchs, why be angry? We can discuss it well and we will definitely be able to come up with a plan that everyone is satisfied with. ”

"What is the satisfactory plan? As long as your Li family does not share the profits of the Runling Stone Mine, it is impossible to have a satisfactory plan! ”

"That's right! Your Li family, to put it bluntly, a monk from outside dares to monopolize the spirit stone veins belonging to our Scorpion Valley, which is really deceitful! One of the Zhu monks roared, anger and hatred written all over their faces.

In the face of the surging emotions, Li Haohan was still unmoved: "Your An family, the Zhu family and our Li family are all in-laws, there is no need to make such a fuss, don't be provoked by outsiders, not to mention that your two families have today's development, and they can't do without our Li family, if there is no ...... our Li family to take care of."

"Fart! We are attached to the Five Poisons Gate, and we are on an equal footing with your Li family! Not to be outdone, the monk retorted.

"If you are aware of current affairs, you should obediently hand over the interests of the spirit stone vein, otherwise, don't blame us for being polite!" The Zhu family monk threatened again.

Although the two Zhu An families shouted wildly, they did not make a move.

There is no other reason, it is really "afraid of death".

Fighting with words will not kill people, fighting will kill people.

Although the Zhu and An families were ready to flip the table with the Li family, when it came time to fight for life and death, they were inevitably timid.

After all, cultivation is not easy, and who doesn't want to see the sunshine of tomorrow?

However, things often do not develop according to human will. Although the Zhu An family was afraid, the matter had come to this point, and they couldn't help it.

I don't know who it is, but suddenly shot out a golden poison dart, and the sharp poison dart went straight to the front door of Li Haohan, the head of the Li family.

The poison dart burst through the air, bringing a sharp whistling sound, like a herald of death, enveloping everyone present.

A fight to the death is inevitable, and there is only a chance of survival or desperateness.

Li Haohan's face changed, he didn't expect the other party to really dare to make a move, his cultivation was not weak, and his reaction was extremely fast.

I saw that his body flickered, and he had already dodged this fatal blow. The guards behind him also drew their weapons one after another to protect Li Haohan, and at the same time counterattacked those who secretly released cold arrows.

"How daring!" The monks of the Li family roared angrily, and they all drew their swords and rushed towards the Zhu and An families.

Seeing this, the monks of the two families also sacrificed their magic weapons one after another, and fought with the monks of the Li family.

For a moment, the empty underground cave was filled with the sound of shouting and killing and the roar of magic weapons.

The battle was fierce, with both sides trying their best to defeat the other. However, in fact, the strength of the Li family is indeed stronger than that of the Zhu An family.

Under the leadership of Li Haohan, the monks of the Li family descended like tigers, unstoppable. They cooperated tacitly and tactically flexibly, and soon suppressed the monks of the two Zhu An families to the point that they could not raise their heads.

At this moment, a powerful aura suddenly descended on the battlefield. This aura was so powerful that it even made everyone who was fighting fiercely feel a trace of palpitations.

The monks present disengaged and regrouped into two groups.

The battle just now was so fierce, but there were only seven or eight corpses on the ground, and all of them were the corpses of the monks of Zhu and An.

"Who is it?" Li Haohan was shocked, he looked up, and saw a black smoke suddenly rising in the center of the battlefield.

The smoke cleared, and the figure of a third-order monk gradually appeared.

He was dressed strangely, wearing a black robe, and a snake-shaped belt with a faint green light tied around his waist, giving people a mysterious and unpredictable feeling.

His face was hideous, and his eyes were as black as an abyss, as if he could swallow up all light. There was a strange smile on his lips, as if everything was under control.

"Hook the evil old man!?" Li Haohan's heart was shocked.

This person is the elder of the Qin family of the Five Poisons Sect, and it is rumored that this old man has cultivated an extremely strange technique, which can devour the flesh and blood of others and enhance his own mana.

The old man raised his head slowly, his dark eyes seemed to be able to penetrate all vanity and look directly at people's hearts.

Li Haohan broke out in a cold sweat behind his back, he knew that he was not an opponent.

But at this moment, he can't afford to be cowardly!

I saw Li Haohan take a deep breath and said in a cold voice: "It turns out that your Qin family is sowing discord behind your back and reaping the benefits of the fisherman." ”

"Hahahaha......" When the old man heard this, he immediately laughed out loud, and his laughter was full of ridicule and disdain: "Provocate? Your Li family monopolizes the spirit stone mine, this is a well-known thing. How? Do you dare to deny it? If you have the guts, let the people of the Zhu family and the An family go in and check it out to see if there is really a spirit stone mine down there! ”

Li Haohan was so choked by the old man's words that he couldn't speak.

The Zhu and An families are the in-laws of the Li family, and even if they want to obtain the interests of the Li family, they will use a softer method.

They were obviously driven by the Qin family today, to put it bluntly, between the Li family and the Qin family, they chose to hug the Qin family's thighs.

The Qin family is one of the three major families of the Five Poison Sect, and even if they pluck out their hairs, they are thicker than the Li family.

The competition for the Lingshi mine is fake, and the Li family is real.

They have come today to offer their allegiance to their new master.

They're here to make a name for themselves!

Just when Li Haohan had nothing to do, a gray-white light flew by.

The man was carrying a large knife on his back, and his body exuded a fierce momentum.

What's even more amazing is that the person who came turned out to be a good-looking woman.

"Who is this person?" Seeing this, the people around whispered one after another.

"She is Zhao Ling'er from Tianchi Fang!" Someone recognized Zhao Ling'er's identity.

"She is the elder of the Li family!"

"What position?"

"I don't know!"

"She's actually advanced to the third order!"

"The Li family has another third-order cultivator, is our Li family about to rise!?"

After Zhao Ling'er landed, her eyes coldly scanned the people present, and finally locked her eyes on the old man who hooked the evil: "You are the old man who hooks the evil?" What kind of ability is it to bully juniors! ”

A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the old man who hooked the evil, he didn't expect that another third-order monk would appear out of thin air in your family. "Are you really a monk of the Li family?"

When Zhao Ling'er heard this, the corners of her mouth hooked up a sneer, and she clenched her fists and said, "Tianchi Fang Zhao Ling'er, Elder Keqing of the Li family!" ”
