Chapter 17: The Mighty Mysterious Old Man (I)

As Yue Chaoli walked about a kilometer or so, Lu Yan met fewer and fewer people along the way. The temperature of the surrounding air has reached a terrifying level, and even a closer look reveals that the surrounding space is even slightly distorted. Under such temperatures, most body refining martial artists can no longer withstand this kind of scorching heat, maybe only martial artists who practice qi mirrors can withstand it, but Lu Yan believes that even if they practice qi realm, they won't last long. Maybe only those acquired martial artists can be here, and even these acquired martial artists have to fight with all their strength to resist such temperatures.

The clothes on Lu Yan's body were already soaked at this time, and now Lu Yan had burst out with the strength of all his sixth-layer body refining, but he still felt very uncomfortable. After avoiding the conflict with Lu Qiang just now, he decisively stopped running the Evergreen Technique, but wanted to see how far he could support it with his own strength alone, but now he already felt that this was his limit, and at this moment, Lu Yan's location was about 1,000 meters away from the entrance of Longyan Cave. Wiping the sweat on his face, Lu Yan took a deep breath, and then silently ran the Evergreen Technique.

When the meridians of the Evergreen Jue were running in the body, a trace of coolness instantly spread throughout the body, and the surrounding heat wave was like hitting a wall and being isolated around Lu Yan's body.

When he was no longer oppressed by the fiery air, Lu Yan carefully looked around. Only then did I realize that there was no one around. At this time, Lu Yan nodded relaxedly, and then continued to walk inside quickly, after all, Lu Yan at this time didn't want others to know the secret of his cultivation of the Evergreen Technique.

Ever since he cultivated the Evergreen Technique, Lu Yan had been deeply shocked by it, this Evergreen Recipe was absolutely precious, especially for those who had cultivated the Heavenly Flame Technique, and it would definitely be a temptation that would be difficult to refuse. If those people knew, they would definitely try their best to snatch it from Lu Yan, which made Lu Yan have to use it carefully.

While urging the Evergreen Jue to guide the wood attribute vitality fused in the muscles to nourish the body and resist the surrounding heat waves, Lu Yan continued to run the Tianyan Jue to absorb the surrounding fire attribute true qi. Under Lu Yan's deliberate control, the two true qi formed a wonderful balance.

Just when Lu Yan walked about two hundred meters away from his destination, he suddenly found an old man in a cyan robe sitting cross-legged on the edge of the wall on the left, his eyes closed.

Suddenly discovering someone, Lu Yan felt a little surprised in his heart. However, Lu Yan continued to move forward calmly, and after about a few minutes, he finally came to a place about 10 meters away from the old man. It's not that Lu Yan doesn't want to continue to move forward, but at this time, Lu Yan suddenly found that there was an invisible wall in front of him that isolated him and blocked his way.

Under careful observation, I saw that the old man was sitting upright on a gray jade futon, with a dignified face, his hands flat on the root of his thighs, his eyes closed, and surrounded by a mass of fire vitality visible to the naked eye, these fire vitality seemed to have fallen into an endless abyss, frantically pouring into the old man's body, and the top of his head was constantly steaming.

Lu Yan's face was frightened, and he felt strongly shocked and unbelievable by the old man's crazy absorption of fire vitality, because in his understanding, he had never thought that a person could absorb fire vitality so crazily. You must know that in addition to being synonymous with rage, fire vitality also has a reason why all martial artists in the world have to be afraid. That is, the fire vitality is with fire poison without tempering, and a martial artist who cultivates fire martial arts is much stronger than a person in the same realm in the early stage, but the longer the cultivation time, the more fire vitality is absorbed, and the fire poison in the body will accumulate more and more.

For this fire poison, the predecessors thought of many ways, but none of them were able to completely solve this problem, at least in Longzhou Mansion, Lu Yan has not heard of anyone who can solve this trouble. Especially for a big family like the Lu family, which uses the Tianyan Jue as the practice of the Zhen clan, they have studied it for thousands of years, and they have only come up with a method that is not a solution, that is, all those who cultivate the Tianyan Jue must stop cultivating the Tianyan Jue every time they break through a great realm, and then use the Detoxification Pill to remove the fire poison from the body while relying on their own internal strength to detoxify. This method is actually quite effective, but the time it takes for him to increase with the strength of the individual, which invisibly affects the time that the martial artist can really use for cultivation.

So for the old man in front of him to swallow and suck wildly, Lu Yan opened his mouth wide, his eyes lit up, and his face showed an expression of disbelief.

Lu Yan tried to guess the strength of the old man, but the facts told Lu Yan that his current strength could not see the strength of the old man at all. But when Lu Yan's eyes turned to the old man, there was a sudden throbbing in his heart, and he felt a strong sense of oppression all over his body, and this invisible momentum even made Lu Yan's body involuntarily take a few steps back.

At this moment, Lu Yan clearly felt that the air around him seemed to be frozen, and breathing began to become extremely difficult, in the face of this situation, Lu Yan had to hesitate to expose his own strength, urging the vitality of his whole body, and burst out with a strength that was much stronger than the sixth layer of ordinary body refining to resist this momentum. But soon Lu Yan became a little depressed, because even if all his strength exploded at this time, he still couldn't resist this sense of oppression. Under the pressure of this powerful momentum, Lu Yan's face turned red, the muscles of his whole body were bulging, his legs had begun to bend a little, and sweat continued to flow down.

Although Lu Yan was almost desperate at this moment, he was still shocked by the old man's powerful strength, because the most terrifying thing was that the old man had never opened his eyes during the whole process, and the surrounding fire vitality was still pouring towards the old man's body, and the momentum that caused such a strong sense of oppression to Lu Yan was only unintentionally exuded by the old man himself.

It's so fucking terrifying! Lu Yan scolded a swear word in his heart. Lu Yan was sure that even his grandfather, who had reached the ninth layer of the day after tomorrow, was not as strong as the old man in front of him. And as far as Lu Yan knows, his grandfather is the number one master of the Lu family.

But now that Lu Yan has met a person here who is stronger than his grandfather, Lu Yan can't help but be shocked. Could it be that the old man in front of him is not from the Lu family, Lu Yan has already started brainstorming in his mind. But it's not right, Lu Yan clearly felt that the momentum emanating from the old man now contained the unique aura of Tianyan Jue. You must know that the Tianyan Technique can only be cultivated by the descendants of the Lu family, so Lu Yan judged that this old man should be a master of the Lu family.
