People are in good spirits on happy occasions, and Li Zhe embarked on the way home happily.

After purchasing enough medicinal materials, Li Zhe naturally had to go back to the mountain to retreat and do penance, and make up for the cultivation that had been left behind as soon as possible.

Catching up with the cultivation of his disciples is Li Zhe's greatest wish at present.

Half a month later, Li Zhe successfully returned to Yunmeng's lower courtyard.

went to say hello to Wang Ziyan, Li Zhe returned to the cave mansion, closed the door and stopped showing up.

At the beginning of the retreat, Li Zhe also needed alchemy.

It takes about six hours to take one pill of the lower grade elixir every day, and then practice the gong refining, and the rest of the time can be used to refine a furnace of the elixir.

Forty days later, the forty furnaces of medicinal herbs turned into two hundred low-grade elixirs and two hundred ordinary elixirs.

Such a result is not a coincidence, but Li Zhe deliberately did it.

Selling the lower grade Raising Spirit Pill and accumulating spirit stones is of course the fastest.

However, the risks are also enormous. Once the secret is exposed, the gains outweigh the losses.

To be on the safe side, Li Zhe still decided to only shoot ordinary elixirs and slowly accumulate wealth.

Anyway, the ordinary spirit pill he refined was very high-quality, and its value was several times that of ordinary goods, and the speed of earning spirit stones was not slow, and the risk brought by it was much smaller.

In order to tie up with Master Wu played by Li Zhe, the Tang shopkeeper of the forty furnaces of medicinal materials only accepted a medium-grade spirit stone from Li Zhe. Calculated together, the cost of a furnace of medicinal materials is only two and a half lower-grade spirit stones, and refining a high-quality spirit pill can be sold for a hundred lower-grade spirit stones, which is already a huge profit among huge profits. This profit has already made Li Zhe very satisfied.

With enough low-grade elixir to take, Li Zhe didn't have to worry about his cultivation speed anymore. Anyway, there is time to alchemy, so there is no need to take risks.

After refining the medicinal materials in his hand, he finally didn't have to spare time for alchemy, and Li Zhe could devote himself to cultivation with all his might.

Change one pill a day to two pills, and all the time is used to refine medicinal power and practice Yin Yang Zhou Tian Spiritual Skill.

This method has an excellent effect, and the cultivation speed has indeed accelerated a lot.

It's a pity that in less than half a month, the side effects appeared.

Li Zhe obviously felt that his control over mana was on a downward trend. This is a sign of unstable foundation, and it is completely contrary to the essence of Yin Yang Zhou Tianxuan's spiritual skills.

Li Zhe was very helpless, so he had to stop taking the pill, and it took seven days to re-consolidate his foundation.

It seems that one pill a day is already the best balance, and if you increase it, it will outweigh the losses.

Life returned to peace, and Li Zhe spent most of his time cultivating the Yin Yang Zhou Tian Xuan Spiritual Gong to absorb the aura of the lower grade cultivation elixir. A small half of the time is used to cultivate spells, especially fire-based spells.

With the help of a large number of low-grade cultivation elixirs, Li Zhe's cultivation improved by leaps and bounds, and he quickly narrowed the distance between him and his junior disciples.

In the early morning of the first day of the first lunar month, Li Zhe walked out of the cave.

The fresh air came to his face, and he took a few sharp puffs greedily, this retreat was really too long, and it suffocated him.

Stretching his already rusty body, he walked quickly towards Wang Ziyan's cave.

Walking into the cave, Li Zhe found that he was once again behind everyone. The juniors and disciples had all arrived, and they were standing together in twos and threes chatting.

Li Zhe, who hadn't shown up for more than half a year, suddenly appeared and immediately attracted everyone's attention.

They came over to greet Li Zhe one after another, and Li Zhe returned the salute one by one.

After the battle with Du Hairong, I don't know if I really recognized Li Zhe or was forced by Li Zhe's overwhelming strength.

At least on the bright side, the juniors and disciples maintain a good relationship with Li Zhe.

Li Zhe did not delve into this. As long as the scene is passable, he doesn't plan to be friends with everyone anyway.

The juniors and disciples soon discovered that the aura emanating from Li Zhe's body was much stronger than half a year ago, and they were all very surprised.

The little fat man Qian Youde couldn't help but ask: "Senior Brother Li, what kind of big opportunity have you encountered, why have you improved your cultivation so much after half a year of retreat?"

"There is no chance, it's just a retreat and penance, and a little gain. Of course, Li Zhe won't tell the truth, so he just wants to make a haha and fool the past.

Where is Qian Youde, who is willing to give up, he still has to entangle.

Suddenly, a soft cough came from the inner chamber.

Hearing the cough, everyone hurriedly found a place to sit down, and shouted in unison: "Welcome Senior Sister Wang." ”

Everyone knows that Wang Ziyan is coming out.

Sure enough, Wang Ziyan soon appeared in the hall.

Raising her eyes and scanning everyone, Wang Ziyan soon found Li Zhe.

Upon closer inspection, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes. Obviously, she also discovered that Li Zhe's cultivation had improved incredibly in half a year.

"I said why is it so lively today, it turns out that Senior Brother Li is out of the customs. It seems that Senior Brother Li has gained a lot from this retreat. Wang Ziyan said meaningfully.

However, she did not continue to inquire about the meaning. Because judging from the mana fluctuations emanating from Li Zhe's body, his cultivation has improved a lot, but he is still very pure. Obviously, no matter what secret techniques Li Zhe used to increase his cultivation speed, it did not affect the solidity of his foundation.

That's enough, Li Zhe's secret, Wang Ziyan is not interested in knowing.

The matter was revealed, and Wang Ziyan began to teach and answer questions.

During the half-year retreat, Li Zhe encountered several problems in cultivation, and he just took this opportunity to raise them with Wang Ziyan. Wang Ziyan answered them one by one, explaining the doubts in Li Zhe's heart.

At the end of the class, Li Zhe stayed, and then proposed to leave the mountain.

Wang Ziyan is also an extremely smart person, and after a little thought, she understands that Li Zhexiu's surge must have some connection with leaving Yunmeng Mountain. In that case, she would not object, and readily agreed.

After getting the consent, Li Zhe went to Fang City again, sold the elixir in his hand, and at the same time exchanged a large number of medicinal materials, and continued to return to the mountain for retreat.

In this way, as the days passed, Li Zhe's cultivation and waist bag swelled up simultaneously.

In the ninth year of entry, Zhong Ling'er was the second among the people to enter the late stage of spiritual introduction, and the sect also gave a high-grade magic weapon. This made the other brothers and sisters also have the hope of getting the high-grade magic weapon in their hearts.

The Yunmeng Sect is so generous, mainly based on two considerations.

On the one hand, the number of new disciples is too small, and there are many magic weapons in the treasury, so it is completely possible to cope with improving the quality of distribution.

On the other hand, in the past few years, many small conflicts have secretly broken out between the Yunmeng Sect and the three factions, and there is a tendency to become more and more intense. The purpose of distributing better magic weapons to new disciples is also to make them suffer less in possible conflicts.

I don't know if it's because these disciples are all very potential cultivators, or because of the current great enemy, so everyone has the same hatred for the enemy and cultivates harder. Anyway, the overall speed of cultivation of this group of disciples was outstanding.

By the tenth year, everyone had reached the bottleneck of the middle stage of spirit induction, and everyone was trying to impact the late stage of spirit induction.

However, Li Zhe is not included among these people. Due to too much debt in the early stage, he was almost able to catch up with everyone.

If nothing else, there is no problem in catching up with and surpassing most of the juniors and disciples this year.

Facts have proved that the Yin Yang Zhou Tian Xuan Ling Gong does have a miraculous effect in impacting the bottleneck. The small bottleneck that can trap others in the spirit introduction period has little effect on Li Zhe, and when he cultivates to the end, he can directly enter the late stage of spirit introduction.

One day on the first day of the tenth year, the lower grade cultivation elixir was in a hurry again.

So, Li Zhe and Wang Ziyan said hello and left the mountain to go to Yunmeng Zongfang City.

In the past two years, Li Zhe would take a slight detour on the way to Yunmeng Zongfang City and deliberately stop in Zhongjing City. Enjoy the food and take a look at Yoo Siren's situation on the way.

Liu Siren is Liu Ruyan's only relative in the world, if he can't take care of it, he will be embarrassed to meet in the future.

Li Zhe came to the restaurant he frequented as usual, ordered good food and drinks, and listened to the drinkers talk about some current affairs while eating.

"Two elder brothers, Lord Liu is a great loyal minister, why did Your Majesty want to kill his head. As soon as he sat down, a voice came into Li Zhe's ears, which sounded very familiar.

Looking up at the owner of the voice, it turned out to be an acquaintance, the military general Zeng Niu. Sitting opposite were his two sworn brothers, Zhao Hu and Zhang Ying.

Hearing Lord Liu's three words, Li Zhe was shocked. Lord Liu won't be Liu Siren, the possibility is not small, the number of officials is not large, and the surname Liu is not a big surname.

The boss Zhao Hu put down the wine glass in his hand, sighed and said: "In the big change two years ago, Lord Liu planned the house and made the first contribution to His Majesty's smooth accession to the throne. His Majesty felt his loyalty, and after ascending the throne, he worshiped him as the right prime minister, and the general leader of the government, which can be said to be a very popular king. It's a pity that the companion is like a tiger, and in the end, he will end up in a different place. ”

Li Zhe finally determined that the three of them were talking about Liu Siren, so they were naturally more interested.

Just when Li Zhe pricked up his ears and was about to hear the ins and outs of the matter clearly, Zhang Ying, who had been silent, suddenly picked up his wine glass, interrupted the conversation between the two, and said: "This matter is not something that our brothers can control, and it is useless to say more." And the partition wall has ears, so that evil does not come out of the mouth. Let's drink. With that, he raised his glass.

Zhao Hu and Zeng Niu sighed helplessly and raised their glasses. The three of them drank it all and stopped talking about it.

Although Li Zhe was anxious, he had no choice but to wait anxiously on the side.

An hour later, the three of them were finally full of wine and food, got up and took their own leave.

In order to find out what happened, Li Zhe also hurriedly got up and followed behind Zeng Niu.

It was dark, but after all, it was in Zhongjing City, and there were still a lot of pedestrians on the road, so Li Zhe didn't dare to make a mistake. However, after Zeng Niu was drunk, he walked staggeringly and slowly, so he could only hold his temperament and follow slowly.

Finally walked to a place where no one was, Li Zhe immediately walked a few quick steps, rushed behind Zeng Niu, reached out and patted him on the back.

Zeng Niu was originally a hot-tempered general, and after being drunk, his emotions were even more likely to get out of control, so he immediately turned around and pulled out his waist knife to cut Li Zhe.

However, as soon as he turned around, he felt a flash of white light in front of him, and then he fell unconscious.

To control a mortal who is drunk is a piece of cake for Li Zhe.

With a little tricks, Zeng Niu told Li Zhe the truth about this matter.
