Hearing Li Xuangang's question, Li Xuankun replied with a resolute expression:

"Brother Jiu, don't worry, I'm not a fledgling kid, and I definitely won't joke about my own path, in fact, this decision is the result of my careful consideration. ”

"Now that you've thought about it, I can't say anything more, it's your own business after all. ”

Although he said so, Li Xuangang couldn't help but remind in the end:

"Having said that, as your brother, I still have to remind you, you also know that in recent years, the patriarch has been reserving resources to prepare for the promotion of the spiritual veins of Taiqiu Mountain, and has stopped the worship of all family monks since three years ago, and it is uncertain how long it will be stopped, which means that we can only rely on doing some family tasks or other channels to get some spirit stones, and the resources spent on cultivating a refining corpse are not small...... I'm worried that it will affect your own cultivation speed. ”

"Brother Jiu's worries have also been considered, but recently Wujiangfang City has been quite unpeaceful, the family has decided to transfer a group of people over, I should be over within half a year, that side is close to the Hengduan Mountains, there must be danger, I am only refining qi at the fourth level, and there is no way to improve my strength in a short period of time, thinking about it, buying a refining corpse can always be of some use. ”

Li Xuangang was suddenly surprised, but he noticed that Li Xuankun had mentioned Wujiangfang City in the Hengduan Mountains just now.

So I was a little confused:

"Is there something going on over there in the Hengduan Mountains?"

"Brother Jiu has been refining pills here, it's normal to not know, there was a beast tide in the Hengduan Mountains half a year ago, if it weren't for the golden pill elder of the Ghoul Sect who arrived in time, Wujiangfang City might be gone. ”

"However, although Wujiangfang City has been saved, there are still a lot of monks who are hunting demon beasts and collecting spiritual grass in the Hengduan Mountain Range, and our Li family has also folded three clansmen into it, although the beast tide has been repulsed, but there are still sporadic high-level demon beasts operating on the periphery of the Hengduan Mountain Range, and the Ghoul Sect has issued an order to the major families in order to prevent the beast tide from appearing again. ”

Hearing this, Li Xuangang suddenly realized, it seems that he has been too addicted to alchemy in the past two years, and he didn't even know that such a big thing had happened, and the eighth uncle Li Changji must have known, but he had never talked about it to himself. ”

......

After that, Li Xuangang accompanied Li Xuankun to buy a three-layer qi refining corpse in the shop where Li Xuankun was home, and his qualifications were average, of course, it was not as good as the iron-armored corpse in Li Xuangang's hand.

And this is a refining corpse that has been sacrificed, but the original prohibition on it has been polished clean, and Li Xuankun needs to refine it again after taking it back.

At the time of parting, Li Xuangang told Li Xuankun some of his experience in cultivating corpse alchemy, and then took out some Yanggu Dan and gave it to him, saying:

"This is some of the Yanggu Pills I have saved in the past two years of alchemy, I have already refined the sixth layer of qi, and it is not a good use, in order to exchange for some spirit stones, so I sold most of them, and this is the remaining some, not much, so I will give it to you." ”

Yanggu Pill is generally suitable for taking in the early stage of Qi refining, but most of the mid-stage Qi refining cultivators have to buy some to assist in cultivation due to the shortage of spirit stones, and the effect is definitely there, but it is definitely not as good as other suitable spirit pills.

Li Xuankun did not refuse, and accepted it silently. His cultivation qualifications are ordinary, about the same age as the ninth brother Li Xuangang, but his cultivation is two small realms behind, and the brothers Li Xuantian and Li Xuanyuan in the same clan cannot be compared.

In fact, monks like Li Xuankun are the norm in the entire cultivation world, and most of the monks in the Li family are also like this.

After bidding farewell to Li Xuangang, he returned to the Li family's grain store, and tomorrow he will follow the family's caravan back to Taiqiu Mountain.

After separating from Li Xuankun, Li Xuangang returned to the cave he rented.

First, he opened the storage bag that the family rewarded him, and there were about two hundred spirit stones and some spirit grass in it, Li Xuangang took it out and looked at it, and found that most of them were yellow bud grass for refining the first-order pill Chunlu Dan.

In addition, there is also a jade cylinder in the storage bag, which is the sound transmission jade cylinder given to him by the patriarch Li Changqing.

Li Xuangang opened the jade tube, and then a slightly majestic voice came out.

Half an hour later, Li Xuangang put away the jade tube uncertainly.

In the interrogation given to him by the patriarch Li Changqing, there were two main things, one was to express his satisfaction that he had succeeded in becoming an alchemist, and the other was to ask him to return to Taiqiu Mountain within two years, because the original alchemist of Taiqiu Mountain, Li Xuangang's nineteenth aunt, Li Qingru, was going to be sent to Wujiangfang City in the Hengduan Mountains.

Li Qingru can stay in Taiqiu Mountain for two years at most, and as soon as Li Qingru leaves, then Taiqiu Mountain will need an alchemist as a replacement, after all, the family consumes a lot of elixir every month.

In the transmission, the patriarch Li Changqing did not mention why he had to send Li Qingru, an alchemist, to Wujiangfang City, but Li Xuangang guessed that there might be a reason for this.

According to the situation said by the tenth brother Li Xuankun, Wujiangfang City is an extremely dangerous place at this stage, and the patriarch will not choose to send an alchemist in the Qi refining period there at such a time, after all, the alchemist has an important role in the family, and if there is an accident in Wujiangfang City, it will be a big blow to the family.

Li Xuangang thought about it for a while, and felt that the biggest possibility was that the Ghoul Sect had issued a specific requisition order and forcibly recruited alchemists from the major affiliated families.

Originally, the Li family had three alchemists, among which the eighth uncle Li Changji was a second-order alchemist who stayed in Binhaifang City all the year round, and the nineteenth aunt Li Qingru was a first-order alchemist, who generally stayed on Taiqiu Mountain to refine Yanggu Dan and Chunlu Dan for the family, and the thirteenth uncle Li Qingtian was also an alchemist, responsible for the family affairs of Tianhefang City, and also alchemized in the family alchemy pavilion of Tianhefang City.

The patriarch's summons this time disrupted Li Xuangang's cultivation plan a little, originally he was going to continue to stay in Binhaifang City to learn alchemy from the eighth uncle Li Changji, after all, in the hands of a second-order alchemist for many years, his alchemy can improve faster.

However, the patriarch had made it clear that he must return to Taiqiu Mountain within two years, so Li Xuangang decided to adjust his plan.

Two years of time can not play a substantial role in his alchemy, because what Li Xuangang lacks most now is experience, that is, he has not done alchemy enough times, and there are definitely not so many materials to support his alchemy in Binhaifang City, but when he returns to Taiqiu Mountain, if he hands over the alchemy task of Li Qingru, the nineteenth aunt, to himself, he will definitely be able to accumulate a lot of alchemy experience, and he will definitely have a lot of improvement in his alchemy.

Thinking of this, Li Xuangang considered that since he had stayed in Binhaifang City in the past two years, he had not improved his alchemy skills, but he had many opportunities to refine in his family, and he could also save the spirit stones of renting the cave mansion, so why didn't he go back to Taiqiu Mountain now?

But this thought only existed in Li Xuangang's mind for a moment, and he abandoned it.

There are three reasons, the term of this cave house that I rented is two years later, and if I leave now, the Ghoul Sect will not return my spirit stone. Moreover, the patriarch did not mention the specific time of Nineteen Gu's departure in the voice, if he went back early, at most he would give himself a part of the task. Finally, after two years of non-stop alchemy, Li Xuangang feels that his alchemy has reached a bottleneck, and he should not be able to break through it in a short period of time.

Thinking about these stakes, Li Xuangang did not procrastinate, and went straight to Baicao Pavilion out of the cave.

After telling his eighth uncle Li Changji about his plans, Li Changji agreed to his request not to come to alchemy for the next two years.

When he left, he exchanged the spirit stones rewarded by the family for some Spring Dew Pill.

After that, Li Xuangang went to Yu's shop to buy some evil qi.

This time, he was going to retreat for a long time, so he bought enough of the Chunlu Pill for cultivation and the evil qi for cultivating corpse refining at one time.

When Li Xuangang returned to the cave, the storage bag that had just been enriched had become deflated again, and there were very few spirit stones left in it.

"Fortunately, there is a reward from the family this time, otherwise I really don't have any spirit stones. ”

Li Xuangang laughed at himself and let out a chuckle.

After settling everything down, Li Xuangang entered the state of cultivation again.

As he ran Jin Geng's indecisive breath, the aura in the cave gathered together. After entering Li Xuangang's body, he walked along the specific meridians and veins, and finally merged into his dantian, at this time his dantian had been filled with about sixty percent of the aura, and now because of Li Xuangang's cultivation, more and more aura was added little by little, and it was constantly accumulating.

......

Just when Li Xuangang was sinking into cultivation, on the top of Taiqiu Mountain, Li Changqing stood on a boulder, overlooking the entire Taiqiu Mountain below.

This is the place where the aura of the entire Taiqiu Mountain is the strongest, and it can be cultivated by three foundation building monks at the same time.

The mountain wind mixed with the slightest aura blew from a very far distance, blowing Li Changqing's long hair and clothes, this mountain wind was very soft, making Li Changqing's originally frowning brows stretch slightly.

And the fifth foundation-building monk of the Li family, and the youngest foundation-building monk, Li Qinghuan, who ranked third in the Qing generation, was standing aside.

"Fifth uncle, the news has been checked, and that person is in the Hengduan Mountains. ”

Li Changqing turned his head, looked at Li Qinghuan, and said:

"Is the message confirmed?"

Li Qinghuan replied: "It was passed back by the clansmen we sent over, and they have the portraits we sent, so they shouldn't admit their mistakes." ”

Li Changqing nodded, his expression calm.

"In that case, then you can arrange the rest of the things, we will go to Wujiangfang City with the team of monks who responded to the order of the Ghoul Sect in two years, and avoid attracting attention when the time comes. ”

"Yes, Patriarch. ”

Then Li Qinghuan hugged his fists and said goodbye, and walked down the mountain from the top of Taiqiu Mountain.

When he arrived at the mountainside, there was no longer the restriction of the mountain guarding array, so Li Qinghuan rose with his sword, turned into a ray of light, and left Taiqiu Mountain.

"After nearly five years of planning, whether Taiqiu Mountain can go further and succeed or fail is here. ”

With such a thought in his heart, the corners of Li Qinghuan's mouth showed a hint of curvature.

At this moment, no one in the entire Li family except for the patriarch Li Changqing knew where he had gone.

Li Changji watched Li Qinghuan's retreat gradually disappear from view, and then he sighed silently as if he had thought of something.
