Chapter 13: Return to the city

In the jungle, a third-level Red Flame Tiger was slowly moving forward, a pair of blood-red eyes looking around, its fur was as red as coals of fire, and its tail was dragging behind it like a steel whip. It's three times the size of a normal tiger!

In the cultivation realm, it is customary to divide demon beasts into levels according to their strength, the first-level demon beast is equivalent to the first to third layers of the qi refining period, the second-level demon beast is equivalent to the fourth to sixth layers of the qi refining period, and the third-level demon beast is equivalent to the seventh to ninth layers of the qi refining period. The fourth-level demon beast is equivalent to the foundation building period, the fifth-level demon beast is equivalent to the early stage of Jindan, the sixth-level demon beast is equivalent to the middle stage of Jindan, the seventh-level demon beast is equivalent to the late stage of Jindan, the eighth-level demon beast is equivalent to the early stage of the Yuanying period, the ninth-level demon beast is equivalent to the middle stage of the Yuanying, the tenth-level is equivalent to the late Yuanying period, and the demon beasts in the tribulation period are collectively referred to as the eleventh level, and the twelfth-level demon beast is the Dacheng period. When the demon beast reaches level eight, it can transform into a human form.

The Red Flame Tiger belongs to the king of the third-level demon beasts, and its true strength is equivalent to the ninth layer of the Qi Refining Period!

Suddenly, the Red Flame Tiger stopped, its flame-like hair stood up, its steel whip-like tail stood upside down, and its eyes scanned to the left and right, as if it was facing a great enemy.

A gust of wind suddenly rolled up in the forest out of thin air, blowing straight towards the Red Flame Tiger.

"Roar!" the Red Flame Tiger roared loudly, like a thunderclap on the ground, its hind legs kicked to the ground, its body stood up, and its two front paws grabbed forward with a "whoosh" sound that pierced the air. However, halfway through the catch, the Red Flame Tiger suddenly stopped, and then fell heavily, the huge corpse smashing to the ground, splashing a puff of dust, and blood gushing out from a narrow wound on its forehead.

Li Hui stood beside the corpse of the Red Flame Tiger with an expressionless face holding the Blue Immortal Sword in his hand. At this time, Li Hui was dressed in a black suit, his hair was draped casually behind his head, there was no trace of childishness on his face, and his figure had reached the height of an adult, with a well-proportioned physique, like an agile leopard.

"It seems that the strength of this Red Flame Tiger is nothing more than that! Master Zun mentioned that only in the fight between life and death can he improve his swordsmanship the fastest, but such opportunities are getting more and more difficult. Li Hui shook his head helplessly.

Now the demon beasts below the third level, one-on-one, can not go for a round under Li Hui's sword, but if you encounter a fourth-level demon beast, it is estimated that Li Hui will run as far as he can.

The gap between the realm between the Qi refining period and the foundation building period is almost insurmountable.

From the time Li Hui entered the mountain to collect medicine and occasionally won the Immortal Mansion, two years have passed. Now Li Hui's cultivation is already the second time that he has recultivated and reached the eighth layer of the Qi refining period!

If you talk about real strength, just in terms of profound spiritual power, I am afraid that it has already caught up with the ordinary ninth layer of the Qi Refining Period and even the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Period.

If you add Li Hui's physical strength and swordsmanship, it can be said that it is difficult to find an opponent below Li Hui's foundation at this time.

At this moment, even if Li Hui didn't use his spiritual power, just with the strength of his physical body and his swordsmanship cultivation, he would probably be able to kill a cultivator below the seventh layer of the Qi Refining Period in an instant.

At this time, Li Hui's cultivation in swordsmanship had finally reached the point where he could start cultivating the "Imperial Sword Chapter". At this time, he had already cultivated to the level of the thirty-six swords from simple to complex.

Putting the Qingying Sword back into the storage bracelet, Li Hui continued to walk through the forest. The spiritual power in the body flowed, and the body method was unleashed, like a gust of wind through the woods, and the branches that grew in the forest could not even touch Li Hui's clothes. It's really in the middle of thousands of flowers, and the leaves don't stick to the body.

Suddenly, Li Hui's flying figure froze, like a civet cat, silently hiding behind a hugging tree, and in front of this big tree, a group of iron-backed wolves were gnawing on the corpse of a silver-horned rhinoceros.

Some of the iron-backed wolves live in groups, while others walk alone. The lone iron-backed wolf Li Hui has seen it many times, the first time he almost lost his life in the wolf's mouth, and the second time he easily solved it.

In the past two years, Li Hui has been looking for demon beasts everywhere as the object of his sword practice, and this iron-backed wolf has killed a lot, but this group of iron-backed wolves is the first time he has encountered it.

As a third-level demon beast, the silver-horned rhinoceros is still turned into food in the face of a group of iron-backed wolves.

Li Hui's face was full of excitement and eagerness. One-on-one, demon beasts below the third level can no longer bring a threat to themselves, and in the face of fourth-level demon beasts, there is no chance of winning. This group of ironback wolves happened to be used to practice swords.

There were more than twenty of these iron-backed wolves, and they were bowing their heads to enjoy their feast, not expecting that there were already hunters behind them as targets.

"Phew!"

One iron-backed wolf had a sword in his head and fell to the ground, and before the other iron-backed wolves could react, two more fell.

"Whew!" a tall leader-like iron-backed wolf howled at the sky. The rest of the iron-backed wolves immediately raised their heads and ran quickly, forming a formation that surrounded Li Hui in the center.

At this time, five ironback wolves had fallen. The leading ironback wolf's eyes turned blood-red, and he looked at the corpse of his companion, full of anger and sorrow. There was another long howl, and all the iron-backed wolves attacked at the same time, pounced on Li Hui in the middle.

"Good coming!" Li Hui didn't have a trace of panic on his face, and his body suddenly turned into a puff of green smoke, and he rushed towards one of the wolves.

The wolves pounced, not even touching a corner of Li Hui, but they were killed twice. But soon the wolves surrounded again, and for a while, there were wolves everywhere in all directions, and dozens of wolf claws couldn't stop grabbing Li Hui's body.

Li Hui danced the Qingying Sword like a storm, and from a distance, in the middle of a group of iron-backed wolves, a little cyan sword light couldn't help but shine through, and the iron-backed wolves fell down one by one.

After half a pillar of incense, all the ironback wolves fell. Li Hui's black robe was also stained with blood. The Blue Shadow Sword was even more blood-red.

"Happy, happy!" Li Hui felt very enjoyable. looked at the blood stains on his clothes, frowned, and injected spiritual power into the Thousand Illusion Treasure Clothes, and after a while, the Thousand Illusion Treasure Clothes returned to pure black power again.

After a short rest, Li Hui set off again with the Qing Ying Sword in his hand, looking for the next target.

During this time, the screams of demon beasts were often heard in the Bixiao Mountain Range, and some demon beasts with high intelligence hid in the caves and did not dare to show their heads.

Yuan Hao Immortal Mansion

Li Hui sat in the Linshui Pavilion, holding a cup of spiritual tea in his hand, and took a sip on it next to his mouth. This spiritual tea is also collected by Yuan Haozhen, and it is not only fragrant when drinking, but also can slowly increase a little cultivation.

However, this is also used as a pastime item, and if you really want to use this tea to cultivate, the effect is not as good as meditating for a while and a half.

"It doesn't make much sense to stay in this mountain now, and the pills in the Qi refining period have basically been exhausted. The master mentioned that cultivation cannot be done behind closed doors, but also must travel thousands of miles and have more experience, otherwise it will be difficult to achieve the road after all. ”

Speaking of this elixir, Li Hui secretly smiled bitterly. In the past two years, I have eaten the pill as a jelly bean, and my cultivation speed is naturally a thousand miles a day, but the cost of this pill is also quite amazing.

"It seems that it's time to go down the mountain and return to Lingxiao City!" After a cup of spiritual tea, Li Hui had already made a decision.

Outside the west of Lingxiao City

Li Hui looked at the tall city gate, the monks who came and went, and even the Bixiao Gate disciples who were responsible for guarding the city gate on weekdays were extremely kind.

"It's been two years!" Li Hui sighed with some emotion. When he left, he was still a third-level cultivator in the Qi refining period, struggling to survive, and now he has the strength to sweep below the foundation.

At this time, Li Hui had already placed the Qingying Sword, storage bracelet and other items in the Immortal Mansion, and the Thousand Illusion Treasure Robe on his body had also turned into an ordinary black robe. It looks like an ordinary Qi Refining Stage cultivator, but the kind of fierce temperament that he inadvertently exudes from his body still makes him look maverick.

It's been two years, and there doesn't seem to be any change in Lingxiao City...... No, there is still a little change, as if there are more monks coming and going at the city gates.

"Could it be that something big is happening in the city?" With a hint of doubt, Li Hui walked into Lingxiao City.

Entering the city, Li Hui was stunned, only to see the city of people coming and going, bustling, in front of the city gate, at this time full of all kinds of stalls, these monks who do not eat the fireworks of the world, but at this moment like a small vendor in the secular temple fair, loud selling, bargaining.

Li Hui carefully walked through the crowd while observing the stalls on the ground left and right. Elixirs, talismans, ores...... The whole nine yards.

In this situation, in Li Hui's memory, there was only such a grand occasion when Bixiaomen opened the mountain gate five years ago and recruited disciples. And even that time was nowhere near as lively as it is now.

Dodging away from a monk who hurried towards him with his head down, Li Hui shook his head and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. In this sea of people, it is really more terrifying than the siege of iron-backed wolves.

It took a lot of effort for Li Hui to make his way through the crowd. Immediately, I found that not only the open space in front of the city gate, but every street in the city was so lively, and those streets that were deserted on weekdays were about to be broken at this time.

However, Li Hui also noticed a phenomenon, most of these monks who suddenly appeared in the city were cultivators in the Qi refining period.

"Could it be that Bixiaomen is really going to accept apprentices?" Li Hui frowned, apart from this, he really couldn't think of a reason for so many low-level monks to gather in the city.

After a while, Li Hui was no longer entangled, but walked quickly towards a restaurant.

If there are many people and the news circulates quickly, it is definitely the restaurant and tea shop.
