"Monk Exchange Conference? In addition to the Xiao family, are there other monks in Rong Liu's country? Hearing this, Shi Yi couldn't help but ask curiously.

At the monk exchange conference in Xiao Shenhe's mouth, Shi Yi was not very interested. On this trip to Rong Liu, the main purpose has been achieved, the pill formula of the Tyrannical Pill has been pocketed, and even the formula of the pill of the Qi Pill, which is in the Fu Qi period, has been obtained.

What Shi Yi needs to do now is to quickly stay away from Rong Liu Xiao's house without arousing Xiao Shenhe's suspicions, and then find a hidden residence to meditate on refining the Tyrant Essence Pill.

With this elixir, Shi Yi believes that although the side effects of borers will not be completely eliminated, it will not be a problem to live for decades.

Now, the only question that makes Shi Yi uneasy is whether he can step into the ranks of cultivators by taking the Tyrannical Pill with the Refining Period Exercises like everyone else, under the premise of having a borer in his body.

After all, Shi Yi's own situation is really special, there is no precedent to be found at all, the borer exists in the body, absorbing the essence and blood in the body all the time, and now Shi Yi's physical condition is described as if it is a bucket that keeps leaking and can never be filled.

How much Tyrannical Pill is needed to produce "Qi" in the body, in fact, Shi Yi himself is also very unsound.

In particular, when Shi Yi looked through the "Melting Formula", he found a line of annotations, which said that when the first wisp of "Qi" is generated, it will greatly consume essence and blood, because of this situation, Shi Yi has to be cautious. This is also the reason why Shi Yi held ten bottles of Tyrant Essence Pill in his hand before, but he was still not at ease.

Shi Yi could completely foresee that if he wanted to embark on the path of cultivation, the number of Tyranny Pills he needed would be far more than that of ordinary monks, but relying on the refining methods of his two swords, not to mention any cultivation in the early stage, and even the number of pills that could be refined to counteract the side effects of the borer was not necessarily enough.

Thankfully, he still has ten bottles of Tyrant Essence Pill in stock now, and aside from cultivation for the time being, it is not a problem to save his life.

Death, this rope that had been around Shi Yi's neck and gradually tightened disappeared suddenly, and Shi Yi had an indescribable ease. Without the worry of life and death, Shi Yi did not plan to take the risk of participating in any monk exchange conference, in case it was also troublesome, it was better to stay in the Xiao family and wait for the time to leave.

"Haha, if there are many Rong Liu monks, where can it be my Xiao family's turn to dominate here. Most of the people who participated in this gathering were the descendants of some monks who had lost their inheritance, or the worshippers who were attached to my family, and the conference was mainly based on my Xiao family. Xiao Shenhe explained with a laugh when he heard this.

Shi Yi just wanted to shirk when he heard this, Xiao Shenhe seemed to see Shi Yi's hesitation, he patted Shi Yi's shoulder with a smile, and said in a harmonious voice: "Lingzhou rarely came to Rong Liu, and has been letting you bury your head in the pile of books, it is really my master's family who is neglecting, not mentioning Rong Liu's terroir, at least it is a pity not to take a look at this monk conference." If Lingzhou doesn't think that my old man is boring and decaying, he will go with me in three days to have a look, and maybe there will be unexpected gains. ”

In this way, the younger generation will be disrespectful. Shi Yi heard that Xiao Shenhe had already said this, and it was not good to refuse in person, and since they were all monks of the Xiao family, it would not be a big deal to think about it, so you might as well go and see it.

............

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and early that morning, Shi Yi and Xiao Shenyi left Xiao's house in the same car.

The place where the monk exchange conference was held, located in the south of the capital of Rong Liu, is rumored to have been a royal palace, but now it has become the residence of Xiao Shenhe to entertain monks, which can also be seen Xiao Shenhe's status in Rong Liu's country.

After two hours of carriage travel, Shi Yi gradually smelled the salty smell of seawater. Since it is already close to the swamp tide sea, it will not be too late to reach the destination, Shi Yi silently calculated in his heart.

Sure enough, less than a quarter of an hour passed, the carriage slowly stopped, and Shi Yi immediately stepped out of the carriage, and the sound of waves crashing against the reef was heard in his ears, which became even more obvious.

And a magnificent building built on the side of the cliff in front of him caught Shi Yi's eyes, this kind of special architectural style hanging in the air, Shi Yi was the first time to see it.

The country of Chu is vast and sparsely populated, and the terrain is flat, so it may be that only in a mountainous place like Rongliu and near the sea will there be such ingenious buildings.

"What does Brother Zhao think of this 'sea building'. Just when Shi Yi stopped, Xiao Gong quietly came to Shi Yi's side, and his little brother Xiao Liang was still standing beside him.

"It's so ingenious that you can't find it anywhere else, but it's a great place to hold a conference. Shi Yi bowed slightly to the other party and replied casually.

Just when Xiao Gong was about to say something, Xiao Shenhe beckoned to them in the distance, obviously when it was time to enter, several people did not stop, and walked towards the main hall.

The interior decoration of the hall is also quite luxurious, and there are even guards of the royal family standing guard on duty, under the guidance of Xiao Gong, Shi Yi and the Xiao family sat down in turn, and there were already many people around before them, but under Xiao Gong's introduction, Shi Yi found that as Xiao Shenhe said, they were all children of the Xiao family clan or side branches.

Shi Yi glanced at it casually, there were about seventy people coming, obviously not all of these seventy people were monks, after all, Shi Yi saw Xiao Ren and Xiao Duxue in it, Shi Yi estimated that there were at most twenty monks present, which also included those scattered cultivators and guest worship.

Shi Yi looked at the few people sitting in the corner, looking a little resentful, and had some realization in his heart, I am afraid that this is not just a monk exchange conference, Xiao Shenhe may have another purpose.

Sure enough, as Shi Yi expected, the exchange session was only some internal exchanges within the Xiao family, talisman making techniques and cultivation experience, and the few people sitting in the corner had no enthusiasm to participate, and everyone in the Xiao family only thought that those few people did not exist.

With the end of the bright exchange session, two royal guards came to the stage from the corner, carrying a middle-aged man, and as soon as the two royal guards let go, the middle-aged man almost fell softly on the stands, causing the children of the Xiao family to laugh in the audience.

"What is Mr. Song going to come up with this time as a lot for this conference? Xiao Gong, who was the host, looked at the middle-aged man who fell to the ground, curled up like a quail, with disdain, and asked casually.

"I, I really don't have anything to auction anymore, my father's relics and family inheritance have been taken out in the past few years. The middle-aged man staggered to his feet, and said to Xiao Gong with a trembling voice.

"Hmm, there's nothing, then how dare you, a mortal, come to the monks' conference held in my Xiao family? When Xiao Gong heard this, he instantly turned his face.

"Slowly, slowly, I still have a treasure left by my father. Just when the middle-aged man was about to be dragged down by the imperial guards, he struggled frantically and shouted at Xiao Gong.

Xiao Gong waved away the imperial guards, stepped forward to sort out the middle-aged man surnamed Song, and his clothes were crumpled because of the struggle: "Mr. Song, that's right, since there are treasures, why hide them, my Xiao family's auction is profitable, which time is missing you, and you can't use things, take it to me for auction, in exchange for some benefits, why not." ”

"Yes, Mr. Xiao, this is really the last one for me, can I not participate in next year's monk exchange conference, I really don't have anything to put up for auction, please let me go." The middle-aged man took out a jade pendant from his arms, handed it over with reluctant hands, and begged Xiao Gong for mercy.

"Next year's thing, naturally, will be next year. Xiao Gong snatched the jade pendant and waved his hand impatiently.

He returned to the stands, raised the jade pendant in his hand, and said in a loud voice: "This first lot is provided by Mr. Song, a jade pendant with a calming effect, starting at ten taels of gold." ”
