Chapter 33: The Undercurrent of Rumors

Time is a very important thing for any practitioner, but at the same time it is the cheapest.

It takes one or two days for a low-level practitioner to retreat, and it takes a lot to practice the exercises, not to mention that for a cultivator of the Three Dan Realm like Yi Chen, a deep retreat is often more than five days, and even more than half a month when making a breakthrough.

Ten days passed in a flash, and in front of the counter on the first floor of the Stardust Building, Yi Zixuan's delicate little face was full of depression, and a pair of bored little hands could only fiddle with a small purple thing on the table at will, and she would mumble two sentences from time to time, but her voice was too small to tell what she was talking about.

"Squeak.... Squeak...."

The purple mink let out a protest cry very dissatisfied, and kept paddling its limbs to resist, but Yi Zixuan's attitude was very firm, and she had no idea of giving up.

In just a short time, the purple mink's body was already covered with colorful girlish decorations, and there were two small pigtails tied on the little head, which looked more like a fairy and a strange little purple doll.

It's really boring, a little angry little face turned his head to look at Yi Chen, who was obsessed with the book on the side, Yi Zixuan rubbed the little head of the purple mink with her right hand, and said angrily in a low voice: "Little fantasy, don't resist, if you want to blame your brother, hum, stinky brother, bad brother, you don't let me go out to play."

Regarding Yi Zixuan's obvious angry words, Yi Chen's ears moved slightly, and there was a hint of helplessness in his eyes, and in the end, he could only act as if he hadn't heard it, and still looked at the books in his hand by himself.

It wasn't until Yi Zixuan, who was angry, pulled it over, that she helplessly turned her gaze to the delicate little face that was already puffing up.

"Girl, didn't my brother tell you a long time ago, you can't disturb me at this time, how can you break the agreement without permission?"

Yi Zixuan heard Yi Chen's words that were still indifferent and insipid as usual, her little face became more and more angry, and the book she grabbed in her hand slapped it on the counter fiercely, pointing at Yi Chen and shouting angrily: "Stinky brother, you are really shameless, you dare to make an agreement with me at this time, didn't you say that you would not restrict my freedom?

Yi Chen suddenly felt a headache, he couldn't imagine that Yi Zixuan was really becoming more and more shrewd now, and it was just a small report to Luo Chuxue before, but now he could think of using the agreement between the two to speak, and he could only sigh in his heart that the role of time was really unimaginable, and the little girl at the beginning was getting smarter and smarter.

However, he is still very aware of Yi Zixuan's small temperament, at this time, she will only encounter danger if she leaves her side, so he has to patiently explain on the side: "Girl, don't mess around, my brother doesn't let you go out for your own good, the situation in the city has become more and more complicated recently, and there are more bad people, if you are not afraid that you will never see your brother again, the fat brother and your favorite sister Chuxue, then go out and play."

"Don't, I don't want to leave my brother, I don't want to not see Sister Chuxue."

After all, the little girl is still a child, although she is very shrewd, but she still thinks about things completely out of her own heart, just Yi Chen's simple words have made her nervous, and she hugged Yi Chen in a panic and sobbed quietly.

Seeing Yi Zixuan like this, Yi Chen's heart felt an inexplicable pain, and he whispered in his mouth to soothe, but his eyes were on the closed door.

In fact, things are just like what Yi Chen said, the situation in Starfall City has become more and more complicated, and the cultivators who have come from other regions are now everywhere, and the city can be described as a mixture of dragons and snakes.

It is said that there will naturally be strife where there are people, especially in the Starfall Land, where the cultivation order has only been reorganized for three years, after two years of scuffle, the bloodthirsty intent cultivated by the surviving cultivators has not completely dissipated, and it still remains in the hearts of every cultivator.

Coupled with the arrogance and contempt shown by foreign cultivators in Starfall City becoming more and more obvious, and there were many people who had bluntly provoked the local people in the blatant, the anger that had accumulated in the hearts of Starfall City cultivators for half a month finally broke out completely six days ago because of a small friction.

The arrogance and arrogance of foreign cultivators and the bloodthirsty outburst of local cultivators caused the contradiction between the two to spread quickly in the city, and the two sides eventually evolved into dozens of bloody battles.

The new order of Starfall City, which has only been peaceful for three years, is also facing the danger of collapse in three hours with the outbreak of this bloody battle, and once it completely loses the shackles of order, Starfall City will return to chaos and war again.

Panic began to permeate the ordinary people and low-level cultivators in Starfall City, and the situation suddenly became dangerous for everyone.

However, it was the outbreak of these dozens of battles that finally made the local cultivators see the strength of the foreign cultivators, and it became the desire of every local cultivator to break through the strength of their own cultivation with pure spiritual qi cultivation.

At the same time, the foreign cultivators also saw the ruthlessness and ferocity of the local cultivators for the first time, and the bloody fighting style was deeply ingrained in their minds, making them know that the cultivators who were regarded as weak in their eyes were in fact a group of fierce beasts with hidden fangs.

However, in the following developments, both foreign cultivators and local cultivators saw the strength of the forces that truly dominated the Starfall Land on both sides.

As if they had been prepared, the two forces captured all those who had started the battle with lightning speed in less than an hour after the battle broke out, and the chaos that slowly spread within Starfall City was quelled in their shock.

Whether it was someone who was very confident in their own strength and the forces behind them, or a cultivator who wanted to quickly escape from the Starfall Land after the battle, they were captured by the two forces before they even stepped out of the gate of Starfall City.

Among them, there were even two disciples of the Blood Knife Sect, who were still fearless in Starfall City after killing several people, and their attitudes were still high, but in the end, they also died under their arrogance and nobody's attitude.

If it were an ordinary cultivator, it wouldn't attract too many people's attention, but the reputation of the Blood Sword Sect had gradually spread throughout Starfall City, and information about its strength was constantly coming.

Therefore, when such an astonishing thing spread to every corner of Starfall City, what the foreign cultivators saw might only be the strength of the two forces, and it could even be said that they were blindly provoking the Blood Sword Gate.

However, only local cultivators knew what this tacit action and cooperation represented in Starfall City, and some intelligent people even smelled a bit of danger from this unusual tacit understanding.

It was also the simultaneous action of the two forces that directly stopped the expansion of the melee, although the atmosphere in the city was still very tense, but the various behaviors of the foreign cultivators had been curbed a lot, and even when they saw the patrol team arranged by the two forces, they deliberately avoided it, so until now there has been no fighting.

However, as time passed, some gossip suddenly appeared from all over the city, and although all of them were some inconsequential rumors, two of them became the focus of discussion on the streets.

In particular, after sorting out the rumors scattered in the city, some people found that each rumor did not seem to have much connection with each other, but they all invariably mentioned "Diyan Liquid", "Secret", "Lingji" and so on.

When all the contents were extracted, a complete rumor spread in Starfall City: there was a very important secret hidden in the earthly liquid, and when the cultivator took a sufficient amount, when the cultivator achieved a breakthrough in his own cultivation and reached the spiritual body from the mortal body, the true element that obtained the Yanhuo quality would have other unimaginable changes, which was enough to change the cultivation qualification of any cultivator in an instant, and it was even possible to cast a supreme spiritual base.

Once this rumor spread, the sensation caused was unimaginable, and it attracted the attention of the cultivators in the city for the first time.

Everyone understands the meaning expressed in this rumor, and even more understands that if the rumor is true, this will be an opportunity, even if they are putting themselves in danger, it doesn't matter if they don't hesitate to offend the two forces.

It is important to know that the cultivation qualifications of every practitioner in the cultivation world depend entirely on themselves, and they are formed at the time of their birth, and it is difficult to change them even if they spend their entire lives.

Unless there is a means to defy the sky, or to find a few legendary elixirs with the ability to reincarnate, or to have a great supernatural person to change his life against the sky, there is no possibility of change.

Now, in Starfall City, such a shocking news suddenly circulated, which undoubtedly made all cultivators see a cultivation path that led directly to the Great Dao, and once again ignited the nerves and desires in every cultivator's heart.

It is still unknown how much of the truth in the rumor, so not many people believed it at the beginning, but as time passed, many people recalled the swiftness of the response of Qingyanlou and the invisible door, and recalled that the two abandoned their past prejudices and carried out a series of tacit actions, but they were reminded of the reliability of this rumor all the time.

There are also many cultivators who directly deny this rumor and regard it as a means for someone or a certain force, but for them, it is also an opportunity to participate in the battle for the Diyan liquid.

In this intricate situation, Starfall City seems to be calm and peaceful on the surface, but in fact, the dark tide is surging, like an active volcano that may erupt at any time, full of unknowns and dangers.

While all the cultivators are investigating the truth of the rumors, they are also secretly watching and lurking, trying their best to suppress the desires in their hearts, just waiting for the day when they come.

This is also the reason why Yi Chen would restrict Yi Zixuan's freedom of travel, no matter what the purpose of these people is, he will not put Yi Zixuan in danger.

However, just when everyone was waiting for the day when the two forces of Qingyan Tower and the Invisible Gate were waiting for the agreed battle, on the hundred-meter hill dozens of miles to the left of Starfall City, two figures with a deep aura like an abyss appeared at the same time.
