Eighty Spirit Stones......

Although Li Miao has no concept of money, he once bought a magic weapon in the Longling Treasure Pavilion not long ago, and he still knows a little about the purchasing power of spirit stones.

The medium-grade magic weapon "Chuanliuxin" he gave to Guo'er is only the price of a hundred spirit stones, and this jade pendant is not even a low-grade magic weapon, and he dares to sell it at such a high price, which is simply a lion's mouth.

"Do I look like a wrongdoer?" he said nonchalantly.

The shopkeeper expected him to bargain, and immediately replied: "The small shop is all real price, don't dare to deceive the son." If you think this Jade Demon Controlling card is expensive, you can also change it. For example, this brass collar only costs ten taels of silver. ”

As he spoke, he picked up a simple collar, and there was an iron chain attached to the collar, which was used to tie the dog no matter how you looked at it.

Li Miao frowned, a little displeased.

At this time, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind him, and three figures came in, one of whom said in a strange manner: "Yo, we met again by coincidence." What, can't you afford to buy anything, do you want Young Master Ben to pay for you? ”

Li Miao turned his head and saw that it was Zhu Zifeng and Zhu Ke who were driven away by him yesterday.

In addition, there was a young man whose aura had reached the middle stage of condensation, which was on par with him.

The so-called narrow road is nothing more than that.

The huge Pangshan City, with a population of millions, was met so quickly.

Zhu Zifeng walked into the store, looked at what Li Miao wanted to buy, and sneered: "Isn't it just a jade demon brand, ten low-grade spirit stones, you can't afford it, and what kind of big-tailed wolf is pretended." ”

Ten Inferior Spirit Stones......

As soon as these words came out, the true price of the demon control card was directly exposed, and the old face of the shopkeeper suddenly became ugly: "Young Pavilion Master, you ......"

All the people who sell the demon cards are black businessmen, because nine out of ten people who need to buy the demon cards are people who have just come to Pangshan City and don't know the market here. He opened his mouth widely, just hoping to make more money, but Zhu Zifeng said it so casually, but he directly turned his old bottom upside down, and there was no chance to bluff people anymore.

Li Miao was amused in his heart, and suddenly felt that this Zhu Zifeng was much more pleasing to the eye.

And the latter didn't know that he had messed up other people's business, and he continued to show off his magnanimity, and said to Li Miao arrogantly: "Then again, there are no demon beasts around you, what are you buying demon cards for? It shouldn't be the first time that a hillbilly has entered the city and watched and played everywhere, right?"

"Ahem......"

As soon as Zhu Zifeng's words fell, the young man in the middle of Ning Zhen, who came with him, interrupted him with a dry cough. said: "You kid don't say a word, beware of colliding with the big guys." ”

Zhu Zifeng didn't care and said: "Senior brother, don't tease me, the peers in Pangshan County who can be taller than you can count them on one hand, with you covering, I can straighten my waist wherever I go." Although this kid's cultivation is good, he is definitely far worse than you, senior brother. ”

"That's enough, don't talk. The young man glared at him, feeling helpless about his junior brother's temperament.

Zhu Zifeng didn't know the depth of Li Miao, but he knew very well that Li Miao not only had a very high cultivation level, but the maids around him were even more of a big demon in the Guiyuan Realm, and he was by no means an idle person.

The young man bowed to Li Miao and said, "Xie Shuangjian, the senior disciple of the Phantom Sword Pavilion, has seen Daoyou, and dares to ask Daoyou, which master is Daoyou?"

Li Miao saw that the other party took the initiative to greet him, and it was not easy to put on a score, so he returned a salute and responded: "Li Miao, a casual cultivation." ”

"Huh. ”

Xie Shuangjian was very surprised, "Scattered cultivation, Brother Li has no guidance from his predecessors, and it is really rare that he can step into the middle stage of condensation at such a young age. I originally thought that you had a big demon as a servant, and you should be a disciple of a certain sect. ”

"Big demon, what big demon? There is obviously not a single demon beast around him. Zhu Zifeng couldn't help but ask.

Xie Shuangjian pointed to Xiao Yun who was standing quietly on the side and said, "That's it." You seem to have said before that you have a crush on her, do you want Senior Brother to help you ask the meaning of the demon cultivator?"

"What...... What? she...... She's a monster?!" When Zhu Zifeng heard this, his eyes immediately widened and he was stunned on the spot.

Xiao Yun was looked at by everyone, a little unclear, so he reached out and fiddled with the corner of his clothes, just revealing the snow-white feathers covered by his sleeves.

Zhu Zifeng: "......"

Xie Shuangjian knocked him on the head, and reprimanded him without being salty: "Don't make trouble in the future, hurry up and apologize to Li Miao Daoyou." People like him, even if the master meets him, he will treat him politely, how can he be like you, who knows how to cause trouble. ”

"Ah......h

Zhu Zifeng looked at Xiaoyun with a loveless expression, was sad, and sighed: "Alas, what a well-behaved and beautiful person, I didn't expect it to be a monster...... Well, youkai sister, yesterday's incident was that the little brother had no eyes. And Brother Li Miao, uh...... What, the shopkeeper, pack all the demon control cards here, and this young master will pay for them, and give them all to Brother Li Miao. ”

He sighed with regret for a while, smiled embarrassedly for a while, and flattered and flattered for a while, and his expression became faster than turning a book.

Li Miao didn't react for a while, and was stunned by Zhu Zifeng's exaggerated performance.

Xie Shuangjian said: "Let Brother Li smile." Zifeng, this kid is my master's only son, he has been stubborn since he was a child, if he is offended, he also hopes that Brother Li Haihan. This kid's nature is actually not bad, but he is a little unproductive, and he can't walk when he sees a beautiful girl. ”

Zhu Zifeng hung his head, like a frosted eggplant, and his invincible appearance just now had already been swept away with the revelation of Xiaoyun's identity. After all, no matter how stubborn he is, he doesn't dare to fight the idea of a female monster. Humans and demons, but feud.

Li Miao nodded.

Others apologized so sincerely, and he had no choice but to put aside his prejudices and replied: "Since it was a misunderstanding, let's expose it." I only need one demon control card, and I don't need the superfluous. ”

The jade demon card was handed over to him, and Zhu Zifeng took out ten spirit stones and threw them to the shopkeeper, and the old shopkeeper was still full of pain, as if he had suffered a huge loss.

After buying the goods, everyone left the shop that sold the demon brand.

The street outside is spacious enough to accommodate several people in parallel.

Xie Shuangjian walked next to Li Miao and asked, "Brother Li first came to Pangshan, I don't know what his plans are?"

Li Miao casually gave the jade pendant to Xiaoyun, let her wear it on her waist, and replied: "I don't have a plan, just go and watch, and play around." ”

He originally came to Pangshan City to go to the market in the big city to see if there were any spells and martial arts suitable for him.

But now that I have learned the magic powers and sword skills of General Maha, the demand for this aspect has been reduced a lot.

Xie Shuangjian said: "If it's a game, this kid Zifeng is doing a lot, and he can let him take you around." He was very familiar with the entire Pangshan City, from the surface to the nine-story area underground. Although I am a few years older, I have been practicing the Dharma for a long time in the Huangting Academy, but I know very little. ”

"You are also a disciple of Huangting Academy?" Li Miao was a little surprised.

Xie Shuang Blade looked like he was only twenty-four or five years old, a little younger than him, but he already had the cultivation of the middle stage of Ning Zhen, and his talent could be described as a superior talent, which was rare. Huangting Academy was able to teach such an excellent disciple, and it must have something extraordinarily powerful.

Zhu Zifeng heard the words and said, "That's not it." My senior brother is not only a disciple of the Huangting Academy, but also a core disciple of the top three in the inner court, with the potential to compete for the chief, even Jiang Zhuo of the Chixiao Sword Sect and Yin Ruoxue of the Thousand Cloud Peak are not my senior brother's opponents. The words were as if the glory were his own.

Li Miao raised his eyebrows, feeling a little impressed.

Huangting Academy gathers more than seventy percent of the young talents in Pangshan County, and Xie Shuangjian can rank in the top three in the inner courtyard, which must be extraordinary. Even among all the mid-Condensation Stage cultivators, he was the best.

Xie Shuangjian himself was modest, without pride and complacency, and said, "Brother Li smiled. Although my talent is good, it is still far from the chief senior sister Chi Xia'er. In front of her, I didn't even have the courage to draw a sword. ”

Chixia'er?

"Who is that master?" Li Miao wondered.

A peer who can make Xie Shuangjian not even have the courage to make a move is definitely not trivial. Its strength is probably no less than that of the powerhouses of the Guiyuan Realm.

Xie Shuangjian explained: "We don't know the origin of Senior Sister Chixia'er, we only know that she was brought back by the dean herself, she was just a little girl of four or five years old when she first appeared, and now twenty years later, she has become a generation of powerhouses that everyone in Pangshan City is afraid of. ”

"Her cultivation is very high, she has reached the late stage of condensation three years ago, and she may break through the realm and step into the Returning Yuan Realm at any time. Guiyuan powerhouses who are less than thirty years old, even in the entire Longquan Mansion, and even in the Xinzhou royal land, are rare existences. ”

Twenty-four or five years old, in the late stage of Ningzhen......

In terms of talent alone, he is even better than Li Miao.

Hearing this, Li Miao couldn't help but be interested.

The chief disciple of the Yellow Court's inner courtyard symbolizes the almost strongest power among the younger generation in Pangshan City. Such a person, if he can fight with it, he will definitely have a great gain.

"Is there a way to ask her to have a fight?" Li Miao asked directly.

When Xie Shuangjian heard this, he was stunned.

"Brother Li, what are you talking about?" He thought he had misheard, and plucked out his ears.

Li Miao repeated: "I mean, can I ask her to fight, and divide the ranks." ”

A few people fell silent.

After a while, Zhu Zifeng grinned and said with an unnatural expression: "Brother Li, don't be joking." Chi Xia'er has been the head of the inner courtyard for eight years, and no one has ever been able to defeat her. Many Inner Court disciples did not have the qualifications to compete with her until they completed their studies and left the academy. Even many of the masters of the inner court were reluctant to fight her. ”

Xie Shuangjian also said: "Yes." My strength has been able to compete with most of the late stage cultivators of Ning Zhen, but when I challenged Senior Sister Chixia'er a year ago, I couldn't even resist her moves. ”

They know Chi Xia'er's strength.

In their opinion, although Li Miao has good talents, he has reached the middle stage of condensation at a young age. But such a talent was not extremely rare in the inner courtyard of the Yellow Court, and Xie Shuangjian himself was one of them.

No matter how strong his skills are and how good his skills are, at most he is comparable to Xie Shuang Blade, and it is impossible for him to be Chi Xia'er's opponent.

The three members of the Phantom Sword Pavilion all thought so.

But they didn't know that the more they said this, the stronger the fighting spirit in Li Miao's heart became.

He ignored the dissuasion of the two and said with a light smile: "It's a good thing to lose, I'm longing for a defeat." ”

This arrogant tone made Xie Shuangjian frown slightly when he heard it.

He knew that Li Miao's strength was good, but at most he was on par with himself. Even he is not Chi Xia'er's opponent, why is Li Miao so confident and dares to speak up but seek defeat?

With a little displeasure, Xie Shuangjian said: "It seems that Brother Li is very confident. Since this is the case, then Xie will not beat around the bush. ”

"Senior Sister Chi Xia'er has been cultivating under the eleventh layer of purgatory in the academy recently, and the only way for Brother Li to challenge her is to enter the inner courtyard of the Yellow Court, obtain the qualification to practice in purgatory, and then break into the eleventh layer and meet her. ”

"Otherwise, if you want to wait until she is out of the customs, I'm afraid it will take at least half a year. ”

The so-called "purgatory" is a place of trial within the Huangting Academy.

Huangting Academy has been established for thousands of years, and it has been created since the establishment of Pangshan City, occupying a large area in the northwest corner of Pangshan City.

The "Purgatory" is a complex labyrinth under the surface of the Huangting Academy, which contains all kinds of demon beasts and evil cultivators captured by the strong men of the academy, and they are imprisoned in different purgatory according to their strength, for the disciples to test.

There are eighteen layers of purgatory, one is closest to the surface, and the eighteenth layer is thousands of feet deep underground, almost completely cut off from the human world.

The deeper you go into purgatory, the more powerful the demon beasts and evil cultivators become. It is said that in the purgatory at the bottom, there are several demon kings who have been ambushed by the first dean, and if it weren't for the "Nine Tribulation Lock Immortal Array" set up by the first dean, Pang Shan City would have been turned upside down.

"Is it good to enter Huangting Academy?" asked Li Miao.

If you want to challenge Chixia'er, you have to join the academy first, which is a bit troublesome.

But fortunately, it's just a academy, and it won't be restricted from freedom, if it changes to a certain sect, he will give it up directly.

Xie Shuangjian said: "Joining the academy is very simple, you only need to pay the admission fee of one hundred lower-grade spirit stones. However, if you want to be promoted from the outer court to the inner court, not only must you cultivate high enough, but you also have to achieve a certain amount of contribution, which will be a little more troublesome. ”

"Isn't it true that disciples from the outer courtyard can also enter the purgatory for trial?" asked Li Miao.

Zhu Zifeng next to him interjected and explained: "Although our outer court disciples can also enter purgatory, they can only operate on the top five layers, unless there is a permit, otherwise they will be expelled from the academy if they rush to the fourth layer." ”

It's a bit of a hassle......

Li Miao had a headache.

However, when he thought about it, he didn't have anything to do at the moment, the only important thing was to go to Ji Lingyu to pick up Guo'er in three months.

Anyway, I'm idle now, and if I go to the academy to have fun, I might even learn something useful.

After making up his mind, he said, "Okay, then I'll go to Huangting Academy and give it a try." With my cultivation, I shouldn't even be able to get into the inner courtyard. ”。

Xie Shuangjian smiled.

"As long as it takes some time, you can get in. However, there are strong people in the inner courtyard, and although I am ranked among the top three, there are actually nearly ten people who are similar to me. Brother Li, don't be too happy, maybe you don't need Senior Sister Chixia'er, everyone else can let you taste the wish of 'seeking defeat'. ”
