Chapter 179: Five years, five years at most
Li Xuangang and Li Qingshui never expected that this mountain-guarding magic array built on the basis of the remnant array would be able to last for more than two months.
It was now less than ten days before their estimated time for Patriarch Li Changqing to arrive here, and as long as this mountain-guarding magic circle lasted another ten days, it would be able to successfully complete the task.
However, on this day, Li Xuangang and the other three, who were sitting in the cave mansion and cultivating, suddenly opened their eyes, because they noticed that the mountain guarding circle outside had collapsed.
And what worries them even more is that this mountain-guarding circle did not collapse due to its own reasons, but was obviously forcibly broken by someone from the outside world.
After perceiving this, Li Xuangang's faces turned cold, and the situation that worried them the most still happened.
So Li Xuangang took the lead in standing up and prepared to go out to check it out with his seventeenth uncle Li Qingshui.
Judging from the evil aura on the faces of the two of them, this was by no means a simple investigation, if it was some kind of loose cultivation, they didn't mind killing it again.
And Li Qinghuan, who was still in place, applied a few low-level magic circles with hidden aura to the jade box containing Bai Yuetan.
Just as Li Xuangang and Li Qingshui were about to walk out of the cave with a murderous spirit, an incomparably familiar aura appeared in their divine senses.
At this moment, the faces of the two of them immediately turned from anger to joy.
Because this breath is none other than Li Xuangang's fifth uncle, Li Changqing.
Li Xuangang walked out to prepare for the fifth uncle, and at the same time estimated the date in his heart.
Then he found that he still underestimated the strength of the fifth uncle, originally he estimated that it would take at least two and a half months for the fifth uncle to arrive here, but he didn't expect him to be a full ten days ahead of schedule.
......
Just a quarter of an hour ago, Li Changqing, under the leadership of Li Qingyang, piloted the Hessian flying boat to reach the island.
However, they did not choose to step off the flying boat, but flew directly to the top of this mountain.
When the mountain-guarding array arranged by Li Xuangang and Li Qingshui stopped the Hesse Flying Boat, Li Changqing just glanced at the mountain-guarding array, and then with a wave of his hand, he broke the broken magic array.
This level of Mountain Guarding Array obviously can't have any impact on a high-level array mage like him!
Then, he continued to steer the Hessian flying boat to the top of the mountain.
Li Qingyang jumped off the flying boat first, followed by Li Changqing.
After the latter got down, he glanced at his surroundings lightly, and then raised his hand to retract the Hessian Flying Boat into the storage bag.
"Fifth uncle, it's in this cave, they have already noticed it if they want to come to Qinghuan!"
So Li Changqing and Li Qingyang walked into the cave between the two boulders, and when they walked to the cave where the stone gate was located, Li Qinghuan, Li Qingshui, and Li Xuangang were already waiting here.
As soon as they saw Li Changqing, they all bowed their hands one after another:
"I've seen the fifth uncle. ”
"I've seen the fifth uncle. ”
At this time, Li Qinghuan still had the jade box containing Bai Yuetan at his feet.
Li Changqing also walked over, stopped his body and glanced at the three of them, and then fixed his gaze on the jade box.
"Fifth uncle, that Bai Yuetan is inside. Li Qinghuan said.
So as soon as Li Changqing beckoned, the jade box flew to his hand, and when he opened it, he saw that the turquoise white moon was growing safely in it.
Its breath was clear and thick, and Li Changqing had seen it for the first time, so he took a few more looks.
It's just a few glances, and after he confirmed that there was nothing wrong with it, he closed the jade box and asked Li Qinghuan instead:
"Is there anything else going on here?"
Li Qinghuan shook his head and said:
"There is no other special place here except for this cave, and they have already confirmed it with Qing Shui and Xuangang these days. ”
Li Changqing spread out his divine sense, and instantly surrounded the entire mountain peak, and he paid more attention to the Qi Ten Thousand Ghost Array on the stone gate for a while.
After a few moments, he turned around and walked out of the cave with the jade box. And Li Xuangang and the four of them followed behind.
On the mountain peak, the cool evening breeze blew, and Li Changqing looked at the sea and sky not far away.
And Li Xuangang, who was behind him, was telling himself about his situation in Donghaifang City for the past two years.
"Fifth uncle, the matter of the Wanxing Islands has not yet been decided, I estimate that this matter may just be a fiction!"
At last, he seemed to think of something suddenly, so he continued:
"In addition, Fifth Uncle, the three people who were killed also have a shop in Donghaifang City...... What should I do?"
Li Changqing was silent for a while, and then spoke:
"Let's put aside the affairs of the Star Islands for a while and wait and see what happens. As for the shop...... There is no treasure ship in the family yet, so it is not possible to extend its influence to Limeng Island for the time being...... You will occupy that shop Xuangang by yourself first, and then the family will arrange it after a while. ”
Li Xuangang responded with a fist, then took a step back and gave up the space to the second uncle.
And Li Changqing nodded at him slightly, then turned his head to look at Li Qingshui again. Then he asked:
"Qing Shui, your second brother has already mentioned to me the progress of your treasure ship mission on the way, I just want to ask, how long will it take to get concrete results?"
Looking at the serious expression of Fifth Uncle Li Changqing, Li Qingshui guessed that the family's plan had advanced to the point where there must be a treasure ship.
If the family can't own a treasure ship of their own, then the family's development will be restricted.
Especially on the Lingshan stronghold, because he knew that the fifth uncle had invested a huge amount of resources over there, if there was no treasure ship to transport the resources of the Lingshan stronghold back to Taiqiu Mountain, then the role of the Lingshan stronghold for the family would be greatly reduced.
This is not in line with Li Changqing's overall plan for the Hengduan Mountains.
Therefore, Li Qingshui also understands the fifth uncle's requirements for him.
Hearing Li Changqing's inquiry, he lowered his head and was silent for a while, then raised his head again, looked at Li Changqing, and said in a serious tone that he had never had before:
"Five years, five years at most, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer to Uncle Five. ”
With such a clear guarantee from Li Qingshui, Li Changqing is not good to have too many requirements in this regard.
So after thinking for a moment, he said to the four of them:
"Qing Shui's task is for Qingyang to follow you to investigate, as for Qinghuan...... You will return to Taiqiu Mountain with me this time, and I will make other arrangements. ”
"And ...... Clear water!"
When Li Qingshui heard this, he immediately listened carefully.
"If there is any unexpected situation in the process of mission exploration, you can let Xuan Gang also participate, but if the matter is very important, don't act rashly, and report the matter back to Taiqiu Mountain in time. ”
"Yes. ”
Li Qingshui arched his hand, saying that he already knew.
In fact, Li Changqing is not very optimistic about Li Qingshui's task, but the other party has been investigating this matter for many years, and if he is not allowed to try, he will not be reconciled.
In fact, Li Changqing was already secretly preparing another way to obtain the treasure ship, although this way would consume a lot of resources from the family, and even make the family unable to send out the cultivation resources of the clan for a period of time, but as long as he could get a treasure ship, then these sacrifices were acceptable.
......
The sun was setting to the west, and the sun was no longer scorching, but the air was a little cool.
Li Changqing felt the second-order lower grade spirit veins within this mountain peak, and then turned to the four of them and said:
"I've already seen the formation diagram of that Spirit Shifting Array, if I want to fully comprehend it, it will take about half a year, and it will take time to gather the materials for the array. I think it will take at least a year to set up a fourth-order Soul Shifting Circle. ”
Li Qingyang showed a hint of doubt and asked:
"What does Fifth Uncle mean?"
Li Changqing didn't answer him directly, but turned around and muttered to the four of them:
"The migration of the mortals has been completed, and there should be a great increase in the population in the next few years. ”
Speaking of this, Li Xuangang understood what the fifth uncle meant: the third-order mid-grade spiritual veins on Taiqiu Mountain are no longer enough, and the family needs a new spiritual land!
Just before the four of them could react, Li Changqing suddenly rose into the sky, and then dozens of compasses spread out around him as the center, instantly surrounding the entire mountain.
Feeling the changes in the aura around him, Li Xuangang glanced up and found that the fifth uncle had actually arranged a mountain-guarding magic circle of at least a third-order mid-grade on this mountain peak in an instant.
After the circle was completed, the aura on the mountain peak was hidden again. Li Changqing fell from the sky and said to the four of them:
"Since there is a suitable spiritual vein here, I will search elsewhere after a year. ”
