In a year's time, Luo Yan has broken through to the late stage of gathering spirits, and the following is a really difficult hurdle, to break through the spirit seed gathering spirits, condense and build a foundation, in order to step into the true road of cultivating immortals.

Anyone who has a spiritual root can cultivate to the late stage of the spirit gathering, but there are less than two or three out of ten who can step into the foundation building period, and there are more than thousands of Qingcheng disciples, of which there are only more than two hundred who have reached the foundation building period, and the number of those in the late stage of the spirit gathering is nearly five hundred, and the difficulty of advancing can be seen from this.

Next, it was a semi-annual test, and Luo Yan didn't have much pressure on this, but he really wanted to see what kind of strength that genius Tian Yi was now.

Half a month later, Luo Yan left the red stone forest, and the Tengyun Technique was unfolded, sweeping towards the Qingtian Palace, regarding the flying of the imperial sword, Luo Yan did not intend to use it in the sect, although the sect did not clearly stipulate that disciples were not allowed to practice its sect martial arts, but it would always cause some unnecessary trouble.

This test is the same as the last time, and it is divided into three parts.

As Luo Yan expected, Tian Yi had indeed successfully entered the foundation building period, and when he saw that Luo Yan was still cultivating in the spirit gathering stage, the curvature at the corner of his mouth was enough to hang anything.

In addition, Senior Brother Li Yuan made another breakthrough and actually entered the realm of Fake Dan, but when this most critical step will be taken, no one knows, in addition, it is the third senior brother Xiao Xuan, who has also broken through to the foundation building period.

The three of them broke through, Yan Kuan was very happy, and each of them directly rewarded a low-grade spiritual weapon and a kind of spiritual decision, as for Luo Yan, except for Senior Brother Li Yuan, who was a little interested in him, the others did not leave any eyes on him.

It was still Xue Qinglin who presided over the test, and the three tests were carried out in an orderly manner, during which Tian Yi was still out of the limelight, and the use of the Broken Heaven Ruler became more and more proficient, and Yan Kuan and others couldn't help but nod and praise. Luo Yan's performance was mediocre, but he didn't attract Yan Kuan's attention.

In the last battle, this time, Yan Kuan did not have the whim to let Tian Yi and Luo Yan fight, but Tian Yi's gaze at Luo Yan was obviously three points of ridicule and seven points of provocation, but he was directly ignored by Luo Yan.

At the end of the test, according to the rules, Tian Yi and the three were rewarded with 1,000 contribution points, and the others all received 500 contribution points.

As soon as the test was over, Luo Yan was about to leave, but was stopped by Li Yuan.

"Senior brother, I don't know what to order?" Luo Yan arched his hand.

Li Yuan smiled indifferently and said, "The little junior brother seems to have a somewhat unstable breath, it seems that he has just broken through, I don't know what to do next?"

"It's okay to plan, let's continue to cultivate. Luo Yan thought for a moment and said.

"Hehe, junior brother, you must not be greedy for merit on the path of cultivation, it is natural for junior brother to be diligent, but there should also be a degree, otherwise it will be too much. Li Yuan took a deep look at Luo Yan and said with a smile.

Luo Yan was stunned, he didn't expect Li Yuan to say this to him, "Thank you, Senior Brother, for reminding him." ”

"Heh, it's nothing, you and I are in the same vein, if you have any questions in the future, you can find me, by the way, there is something I want to discuss with my junior brother. Li Yuan waved his hand and said with a smile.

"Senior brother, just give orders. ”

"That's right, since many of our senior brothers have broken through, I hope to use this time to consolidate our cultivation, and we also need to go out and practice. ”

"For this reason, I specially went to Qinghua Hall and took a spiritual mine task, which requires five people to accompany me, I have persuaded Long Fei, Tian Yi and Xiao Xuan, and now there is still one person missing, if the junior brother is willing, I can be the master and count you as one." The reward for completing the task will be divided equally between the five of us, how about it?" Li Yuan said slowly.

"Spirit Mine Mission?" Luo Yan wondered.

"Little junior brother, don't worry, this mission is not difficult, your main task is to be responsible for guarding, and leave other things to me and Long Fei. Li Yuan patted Luo Yan on the shoulder and said with a smile.

Luo Yan hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Thanks to Senior Brother, it's okay." ”

Seeing Luo Yan's promise, Li Yuan's face was overjoyed, and he threw a jade slip from his arms to Luo Yan, and said with a smile: "This is very good, the brothers of the same vein should be in the same breath and branches, and have a good temper, three days later, in the early morning, we will gather next to the stone tablet under Qinglong Road." ”

"Inside this jade slip are the details of the mission, you can find out first. ”

Luo Yan took the jade slip, and then he got up and swept towards the stone courtyard where he lived.

"Senior brother, why do you want to call him, aren't the sixth and seventh junior brothers better candidates?" Long Fei walked out from behind Li Yuan and asked with a puzzled expression.

Li Yuan smiled a little meaningfully and said, "Long Fei, don't underestimate him, it is not easy for him to break through to the late stage of Gathering Spirits in such a short time. ”

When Long Fei heard this, his face suddenly became strange, in the late stage of gathering spirits, he really didn't see it, so it was barely suitable.

......

After returning to his stone courtyard, Luo Yan carefully checked the contents of the jade slip, and after confirming that there was nothing missing, he was relieved, as Li Yuan said, this spiritual mine task is not difficult.

The task is specifically like this, a Tianling Stone Spirit Mine located in the territory of Li Tangguo has recently lost dozens of absentees for some reason, and no one is alive or dead, resulting in the spirit mine being abandoned for a time, but the Heavenly Spirit Mine is the most needed spiritual material for refining spirit weapons, and the Qingcheng faction will naturally not give up so easily, so they sent a task and sent a team of five people to check it.

To put it bluntly, this is just a patrol task, as for whether to find the reason or not, that's another story.

The five major sects of the Immortal Dao, each sect is dependent on a lot of forces, and every year they will provide a considerable amount of spirit stones and resources for protection, this Li Tangguo is a force under the Qingcheng faction.

Knowing this, the task is naturally much simpler, with Li Yuan, a fake Dan monk, leading the team, there will hardly be any problems that cannot be solved, after all, except for the five major sects, there are very few Huadan stage monks in the scattered cultivation, and they will not be so unlucky, just happen.

Luo Yan put away the jade slip and muttered for a moment, then swept out of the stone courtyard and walked towards the red stone wood.

Now, if he didn't stay in the redstone forest to cultivate, Luo Yan was really a little unaccustomed to it. Familiar with the way, soon, Luo Yan entered the forest and went to the very deep place.

There are still three days to go, he doesn't want to waste it, three days is enough time to do a lot of things, he is ready to refine the purple spirit three blades again, and now he has broken through to the late stage of gathering spirits, and the aura in the dantian is becoming more and more intense, if he can control the fusion aura and stinger damage well, it is undoubtedly one more big killing weapon for him, even if it is a monk in the foundation building period, he is confident that he can kill it.

Of course, this still has to be done when the other party is defenseless, otherwise a foundation building period monk will defend with all his might, no matter how powerful Luo Yan is, he will not be able to kill with one blow.

......

More than 100 miles north of Qingcheng Mountain, this is a city of considerable scale.

The city is surrounded by mountains and rivers, verdant and verdant, the stone houses and high-rise buildings in the city are arranged neatly, row upon row, the crowds of people on the street are surging, the traffic is busy, even if it is far away, you can also hear the noisy clamour.

What a prosperous city, a vast area, this is one of the spheres of influence of Qingcheng Mountain, Li Tangguo.

Li Tangguo is famous for its abundance of Tianling stones, and there are more than ten large and small Tianling stone veins in its territory.

It was midday, and the weather was clear and cloudless.

On the street, crowded with people, so lively, today is Li Tangguo's annual Yu Lan Festival, the people can enjoy the carnival in this day, waiting for the grand celebration in the evening, and staying awake all night.

There were two leaders of the Li Tang Kingdom, one surnamed Li and the other surnamed Tang, one of whom was directly from the Qingcheng faction, and both of them were monks in the Huadan period.

At the north gate of Li Tangguo, Li Yuan's five people swept all the way from afar, and after a simple inspection, they entered the city. The noise in the city surprised Luo Yan, Li Yuan and the others were okay, after all, they had seen the world, but Luo Yan had rarely had contact with people since he was sensible.

Suddenly, seeing such a huge crowd, Luo Yan was immediately stunned, is this the city, he followed behind Li Yuan and the others without saying a word, looking around, very curious about this troubled world. Because they needed to carry out the task, Li Yuan and the others did not wear Qingcheng costumes, after all, it was too ostentatious.
