Chapter 24: Xuanling Realm
Three days have passed since the Tingchaotai banquet, and Li Yun got the Xuanshi provided by the Tingchao Academy, which was originally calculated by pressing the Xuanshi, and there were more than 70,000 pieces, but Li Yun exchanged them for medium-grade Xuanshi, so that there were more than 700 pieces in total.
In addition, the academy also rewarded him with five high-grade Xuanshi, and Chen Gangba gave him five high-grade Xuanshi in order to thank him for listening to the Chaotai inscription, so that he had ten more high-grade Xuanshi in hand.
"Master, now that the energy supply is sufficient, and the speed of Xuan Technique condensation is very stable, it is estimated that in the near future, we will be able to obtain the Heavenly Grade Xuan Technique!" Xiao Xing said happily.
"Hee-hee, it's not bad to exchange a poem for five high-grade Xuanshi. Li Yun said with a smile.
Listening to Chaotai's poem, he will be famous all over the world, and when the time comes, he Chen Gangba will make far more money than these five high-grade Xuanshi. Xiaoxing said.
"Makes sense. However, I also became famous because of this, and the value of the signature is even greater, and it is a win-win situation for both parties. And I urgently need Xuanshi at the moment, and this time it is indeed a solution to the urgent need. ”
"In that case, the master might as well break through the realm in one go. I see the time has come. ”
"Exactly, I went home after breaking the border, and I didn't go back for a while. ”
Li Yun took out two medium-grade Xuanshi, calmed down, and quickly absorbed them.
In the past three days, he has cultivated the Xuan Gong to the peak state of the Xuan Kuo Realm, and he may break through the realm at any time.
However, he knew that there was absolutely no urgency at this time, as long as he continued to expand his reserves and lay a solid foundation, it would be natural to break through the realm.
The pure Xuanqi flow of the medium-grade Xuanshi was constantly washing away the flesh and muscles, and if he could look inside, he would find that the impurities in the skin, flesh and bones were constantly being washed away, some seeping out of the pores, and some were absorbed and transformed.
The matter in his body is becoming crystal shiny, making his temperament quietly change and appear radiant.
After absorbing nearly twenty medium-grade Xuanshi, Li Yun's clothes were soaked, and a smell of sweat volatilized, which turned out to be impurities discharged from his body.
Gradually, impurities are discharged less and less, and the wet clothes are quickly evaporated and dried by body temperature.
After a long time, Li Yun slowly opened his eyes, flashed a trace of excitement, and said happily: "Xuanling Realm!"
Finally entered the third Xuanling realm, Li Yun's Xuangong cultivation can be regarded as entering the realm quite quickly, from the first Xuanyi realm to the present, it took about three months.
In the Xuanling Realm, the martial artist's focus is on condensing the blood in the body, constantly decontaminating and renewing, and nourishing the major organs in the body, so as to achieve the purpose of blood exchange.
In this realm, Xuanshi is indispensable, without a large amount of Xuanshi supplementation, as well as the nourishment of Xuanyao, it is impossible for ordinary martial artists to achieve the purpose of exchanging blood, so they have to stay in this realm for a long time, missing the best period of cultivation.
From this point of view, this is where the advantages of the children of the big family lie, they have the support of the family and can get the Xuanshi in time, thus ensuring the normal progress of cultivation.
"Master, with the Xuanshi we have now, it is estimated that it will be more than enough to support you to break through the Fourth Xuanshan Realm, it seems that our travel plan is quite promising. ”
"That's right. However, don't forget the energy supply required by your Xuanji Palace, it is not something that can be solved by one or two high-grade Xuanji now, and the heaven-level Xuanji is not just for fun. Li Yun sighed.
"Don't talk about the heaven-level mystical technique, I found that the ground-level lower grade alone is extremely energy-intensive, and after entering the ground-level mystical technique, the condensation of each level is increasing the energy consumption sharply, and the upgrade range is also decreasing, which really gives me a bit of a headache. Xiaoxing echoed.
"Maybe the heaven-level mystical skills are really a limit, but your condensation level is completely capable of improving their quality again, but you haven't fully recovered yet, and the energy supply is intermittent. Li Yun analyzed.
"Indeed, if I have a sufficient supply of energy, I can activate more programs, and the improvement of the occult technique is simply a breeze. However, as you increase in strength, this will come. Xiaoxing said.
"That's for sure. Let's work together, not to mention this small Listening Tide City, even the Heavenly Dragon Empire, will be easily crossed by us. Li Yun said confidently.
......
Tingchao City can be said to be one of the gateways to the outside world in the south of the Tianlong Empire, and there are a large number of ships coming and going between the sea and the Chaojiang River every day.
In a huge pavilion in the castle tower of the port, a man wearing the red military robe of the empire was reading documents, this person was called Zu Qiguang, the general of the Tingchaogang army.
The Tingchaogang army is directly subordinate to the empire, and does not belong to the management of the Tingchao City Lord's Mansion, and its direct boss is Pingnanhou. As a close confidant of the Marquis of Pingnan, Zu Qi's wide power poured into the port, filled his private pockets, and lived a very nourishing life.
At this time, a guard came in and shouted, "Report, Vice General Zhang has arrived!"
"Let him in. ”
A blue-shirted general hurriedly came in from outside the building, along with two businessmen-looking people.
"General Zu, the end will come. Adjutant General Zhang Ke said loudly.
"How's it going?"
"That fleet is from the Chen family of Tingchao City, and the cargo is a mysterious beast from the Xijon Empire. These two people are the second and fourth masters of the Chen family. Zhang Ke said.
"I see. Why didn't the goods be filed in advance this time?" Zu Qiguang asked as he turned to the two merchants.
Chen Taichang, the second master of the Chen family, took a step forward respectfully and said, "General Zu, this time I went to Xirong to buy the mysterious beast, which was used for my Chen family's Colosseum. However, although we had previously filed for the purchase of mysterious weapons, unexpectedly, after the two of us arrived in Xirong, we found that there were more and more attractive mysterious beasts over there, so we also bought a few by the way. I wonder if the general can be accommodating, let's make up for the record now?"
As Chen Taichang spoke, he took out a brocade box from his body and gently placed it on Zu Qiguang's table.
Zu Qiguang stared at Chen Taichang, opened the brocade box, his eyes lit up, and he said in his heart: "Five high-grade stones, the Chen family is generous." ”
"Well, read your first offense, forget it this time. In the future, items that have not been recorded, especially dangerous creatures such as large mysterious beasts, will not be allowed to enter the port without permission, and must be approved before entering, remember!" Zu Qiguang said.
"Yes, the villain understands! Thank you General Zu! The villain retires!" Chen Taichang nodded and said.
The three of them exited the door, and Chen Taichang took out a small brocade box from his body, stuffed it into Zhang Ke's hand, and said: "Thank you Vice General Zhang! Please take care of the Chen family's business in the future, we will not forget your benefits!"
"Haha, definitely, definitely!" Zhang Ke accepted the brocade box and said with a smile on his face.
Only then did the two brothers leave happily.
......
On the noisy Chaojiang River, not far from the harbor, more than a dozen large ships docked here, and dozens of huge cages were unloaded from the ships, all of which were tightly covered with thick blankets, and only a few small openings were opened for ventilation, and occasionally a few low beast roars could be heard from inside.
The cage is made of metal, which is extraordinarily large, with rollers underneath, and a group of people pull it in front of it and move forward slowly.
There were many people around, except for the curious onlookers, most of them were guards sent by the Chen family.
In addition, there were dozens of people who looked a bit like the Xijon Empire, pulling some small carriages, and they seemed to be animal trainers.
"Second brother and fourth brother, you have worked hard!" Chen Gangba, the head of the Chen family, appeared nearby.
"Thank you, big brother! This time it went well, these Xijon people are very cooperative, and the price of the mysterious artifact we want is very fair. Moreover, not only are these beasts half given away and half sold, but they also offer to send these beast trainers over at their own expense. It's the first time I've encountered such a good thing!" Chen Taichang said with a smile.
"Haha! I think they want to have a good deal with our Chen family, occupy the beast industry in Tingchao City, and at the same time, open the mysterious beast market of my Heavenly Dragon Empire. ”
"Yes, so did the leader of the Sijon. It seems that our Chen family has another source of wealth!"
"Hahaha!" Chen Gangba laughed proudly.
......
The day after breaking through to the Xuanling Realm, Li Yun went home to have a look.
"Mother, I'm back!"
"Yun'er, you've grown taller!" said the third lady with joy at first sight.
"Yes, mother!"
"Great, quick, go meet your father and let him see it too!"
"Okay, my father is in the study, right?"
"Yes! He seems to have something. ”
"Oh?"
Li Yun was slightly stunned, hurried to the study, and saw Li Wei reading the file.
"Yun'er, you... It's in the Xuanling Realm?!" Li Wei looked up, looked at it for a moment, and immediately said.
"Yes, it broke through yesterday. ”
"Great!
"Steady, I'm not going to pull out the seedlings. ”
"Yes, Xuangong must not be rash, my father made this mistake back then, which led to the slow entry now, and even a little stagnant, and now I think about it, it's too late to regret it. Li Wei sighed.
"Father, don't worry, I will definitely have a way to help you stabilize your foundation and break through the realm again. ”
"Really... of?"
"Well, but don't let that hurt your mood. ”
"Well... When you say this, it is natural for you to be a Father to wait for your good news with peace of mind. ”
"By the way, I heard my mother say that there seems to be a situation on your side?"
"Yes, I wanted to look for you a few days ago, but due to the complicated situation, I collected more evidence, but I didn't expect you to come back today. Li Wei said.
"Hee-hee, it seems that there is a new case happening!"
"Yes, and besides, it looks like a big case!" Li Wei said solemnly.
"Oh, tell me about it. Li Yun's interest came all of a sudden.
Li Wei handed the file at hand to Li Yun and said: "I heard that in the past ten days in Chaocheng, there have been more than 100 cases of missing people reported from all over the city, and now there are a little panic in the city, and many people dare not go out. There is also a verification report made by me and the city government personnel. ”
Li Yun took the file, calmly and calmly, turned it page by page, and quickly turned it over and handed it to Li Wei.
"Finished reading?" Li Wei was stunned.
"It's over. ”
"How's the situation?" Li Weiqiang endured the doubts in his heart and asked expectantly.
"One hundred and nine people are missing, of whom nearly 100 are between the ages of 15 and 35 and nine are between the ages of 35 and 40. Eighty-eight men and twenty-one women. These people have all practiced Xuangong and come from fifty-six professions. ”
"These... What can it mean?" Li Wei's eyes lit up.
"What the murderer needs is someone who is young and strong, and who is strong in blood and blood. Li Yun said.
"Anything else?"
"Judging from the location of the crimes, most of the missing people occurred in the southern area, and if you draw a map, the central area where the disappearances occur is concentrated is near the Colosseum and the Tingchaotai of the Chen family. Li Yun said.
"It's... What's going on with the intersection of the central area?" said Lee.
