Chapter XVIII

Cao Yan had a big hole under his left ribs, and the blood flowed like an infusion, if he deviated so much more, a small life would be given to this battle platform. As it was at the time, he could have thrown in the towel.

Qingyang Valley can't help but fight privately, and can't help fighting with the door to life and death, because the road to cultivating immortals is not a smooth road, I don't know how many difficulties I have to encounter, if I don't have the courage to face death, I can't get through those difficulties.

But Qingyang Valley is strictly forbidden to continue to shoot at the weak side when one side admits defeat and the victory or defeat has been divided, cultivating immortals requires courage, but in the competition, the disparity in strength is huge, or the situation is critical, it is not courage, but stupidity.

Cao Yan may not be smart enough, but he is by no means stupid, the defeat to Li Heng is mainly to underestimate the enemy, and the estimation of Li Heng's alchemy power is somewhat insufficient. But if he didn't suffer the last sword, with the character of Slaying the Heavenly Tiger, he might as well die in the future.

The victory and defeat have been divided, many people in the martial arts arena have begun to leave, this battle will become their talk in a few days, and then it is destined to be forgotten, such things happen from time to time in Qingyang Valley, if it were not for the piles of spirit stones on the viewing platform, many people would not even be interested in watching.

Li Heng looked at the wound under Cao Yan's ribs, and stopped talking, and finally picked up the fine lower grade round shield that fell to the ground and turned around and got off the battle platform, that is the right of the winner, otherwise after fighting for a long time, no one will even have a full head, and there will be nothing to fight with you. The three spiritual weapons are all of excellent quality, the flying sword Li Heng is not commonly used, and it will not take long for the long sword to improve with the purple qi heavenly thunder, so he chose this round shield.

He originally wanted to give Cao Yan a Yuan Spirit Returning Technique that could speed up the condensation of the wound, but he knew that the effect of this spiritual technique was not as good as picking a place close to the vital point on Cao Yan's body, and he couldn't die anyway.

As for the pile of spirit stones on the viewing platform, Li Heng will naturally not be polite, although Tu Tianhu's gaze is a little unkind, but what if he is good, what if he is not good, he can't regret it or attack himself in front of so many people, judging from the few things that Xiu Xian began to experience, you may not be able to exchange for the mercy of others. On the contrary, your fists are hard enough, but you can make people jealous, just like Wang Shizu ran to other people's mountain gates to make trouble, it is okay, if he was replaced by Li Heng, he would have been skinned and refined.

"Senior Brother Li, don't rush back, our hall master has something to inquire about. ”

Just when Li Heng took the spirit stone and wanted to go back, Yu Huan looked at Li Heng with a smile and said.

"Hall Master, Battle Hall Master Wei Potian?" Li Heng was a little puzzled, he didn't seem to have offended the people of the Battle Hall.

Seeing the look in Li Heng's eyes with some doubts, Yu Huan hurriedly said, "It's just a trivial matter." ”

"Okay, junior brother, let's go with senior brother. "Actually, how dare Li Heng not go, even if he is not the master of the Battle Hall, just the name of a monk in the late stage of foundation building, with Li Heng's current cultivation, he will not dare to disobey.

In the battle hall,

"I heard that Senior Nephew Li met Zhao Ruoxue, the daughter of King Zhao of Youzhou, a few months ago, but is there such a thing?" After looking at Li Heng for a moment, Wei Potian asked in a deep voice.

Li Heng replied calmly, "I have been with me for several miles." ”

The eyes of the Wei Hall Master stayed in front of Li Heng's waist and abdomen for a moment, Li Heng immediately knew what he knew categorically, and immediately briefly explained the process, but omitted the matter after parting with Zhao Ruoxue.

He asked about walking with Zhao Ruoxue, and Li Heng didn't need to say much.

Wei Potian was noncommittal after hearing this, but nodded silently, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Three months ago, King Zhao asked someone to find me to check the whereabouts of this Wei Laosan, and I took Yu Huan and the three of them to do it, and the three of them found a walking corpse in the mountains a few miles away from the old bear valley, the skin of the whole body is pitch black, and the musculoskeletal is stronger than Xuantie, but from the face and clothing, it can be roughly concluded that this walking corpse is that Wei Laosan, it should be that he practiced some kind of yin ghost technique before his death, and he became like that after his death. This matter is not far from Old Bear Valley, I don't know what Senior Nephew Li found out at that time?"

"Then Wei Laosan was killed by his nephew. Li Heng knew that he couldn't get out of the relationship, so he had to admit it.

The Hall Master nodded again and asked in a deep voice, "What did the senior nephew find in Wei Laosan?"

What can make the hall master of the battle hall spend time looking for is naturally not ordinary objects such as storage bags, plus where Wei Potian's eyes stayed before, I am afraid that he already knew about the animal skin, Li Heng did not intend to be able to hide this matter in the past, and immediately took the animal skin out of his arms and handed it to Wei Potian.

Wei Potian smiled slightly, and didn't see any movement from him, the animal skin flew up from Li Heng's hand, fell into his hand, and after careful identification, put it in his arms.

In fact, Wei Potian asked Li Heng to come but he was only five points sure.

The real name of this thing is the Hidden Mountain Beast God Tu is a thing from another world, the origin is unknown, and the monks who have left the country for thousands of years only know that every hundred years, they can open the magic circle leading to a secret realm by gathering twelve animal skins, and after the magic circle is opened and maintained for half a month, these twelve animal skins will flee on their own.

As with the secret realm only allowing monks under the foundation to enter, the fragments of this Hidden Mountain Beast God Diagram usually fall into the hands of monks in the Qi Refining Period, and need to be collected by various sects, of course, they have already formed an agreement that the three major sects occupy forty percent of the nearly 100 places, and the five medium-sized sects similar to Qingyang Valley can each get two places, and the rest are equally distributed to the sects or individuals who have obtained the fragments of the Hidden Mountain Beast God Map, which is basically a piece of animal skin with three places, but most of these animal skins fall into the hands of the three major sects.

Originally, there were only two places in Qingyang Valley, but now with this animal skin, it is added to three, this matter is very important, Wei Potian looked at Li Heng with satisfaction, "I will report this matter to the master, Senior Li and nephew have made a great contribution to Qingyang Valley, and there will be a heavy reward in the door in the future." ”

Wei Potian's expression fell in Li Heng's eyes, and it was clear that you were a kid acquaintance, but everything was handed over, and there was no need for him to have another branch, "Serving Qingyang Valley is within Li Heng's responsibility, and he doesn't dare to ask for anything in return." ”

This is true, but it is false to dare not expect anything in return.

Leaving the battle hall, Li Heng did not go directly back to the small courtyard, but went to the Hidden Gold Pavilion. In a row of travelogues, I found out about this hidden mountain.

It turns out that the reason why this hidden mountain secret realm is valued by the major sects is that in addition to the abundant spiritual energy, coupled with the perennial closure, there are many heavenly and earthly treasures, it is rumored to be a place where the monks of the gods sit, if they can get their true inheritance, it will inevitably make the strength of the sect soar.

The few times they have entered in the past few hundred years, they have become closer and closer to the core of the secret realm, so the various sects have also increased the rewards for the monks who enter the secret realm, but those who can obtain important clues are given the realm breaking pill that can increase the probability of breaking through the cultivation bottleneck.

But the closer you get to the core, the more dangerous it becomes, and the last time you opened the Hidden Mountain Secret Realm, less than half of the monks returned alive.

"Realm Breaking Pill," Li Heng whispered to himself, this thing he hadn't seen among the exchangeable items contributed by the sect, it could be seen that it was an extremely precious thing, but a good thing had to be consumed.

After returning to the small courtyard, Li Heng continued to work in the condensation field in the morning to pay off his debts, study the formation by the small pool in the afternoon, and cultivate the life of purple qi and heavenly thunder in the evening.

It's just that during the period, I heard that Cao Yan took the initiative to go to the mines in Qingyang Valley to mine because of a lot of debts, and that Tu Tianhu often said in front of people that Cao Yan weakened the reputation of the Law Enforcement Hall.

That Cao Yan was looking for his own refining with a piece of Xuanjing raw ore, and within a few days, he owed a lot of debts so much that he had to go to the mine to mine without seeing the light of day, and Li Heng could think of the reason with his toes.

As for the meaning of Tu Tianhu's words, Li Heng didn't care too much, he earned two thousand spirit stones from others, and it was not embarrassing to admit defeat.

However, he was a little depressed, obviously how could an ordinary fight between himself and Cao Yan turn sour. However, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and he, Li Heng, is not afraid of open contention.

After thinking about it, a spirit rune flew directly in front of him through the phantom array, and with a light touch, the spirit rune immediately turned into Wei Potian's appearance, and said in a deep voice, "Hurry up to Qingyang Palace, the head wants to see you." ”

Li Heng pondered, this matter should be related to the animal skin, the animal skin itself has been handed in, this time it is estimated that it is a reward, then it will be over if it is directly hit on his wooden card, how can he alarm the master.

But since it's to receive the award, it doesn't hurt to go to Qingyang Palace.

When he arrived in the Qingyang Palace, Li Heng found that there was only one person in the house, and he learned two things, one was naturally a reward, and the content was to let Li Heng choose a spiritual weapon that he could use in the treasure pavilion, and he could also be personally guided by the head of the sect to guide the difficulties of his exercises three times.

Li Heng thought about it carefully, it was extremely precious for the monk in the middle of the Yuan Infant to solve his doubts three times, but what does it mean to choose any spiritual weapon that he can use, isn't that a low-grade spiritual weapon, but it is so dazzling to the old Taoist in front of him, unless it is a spiritual treasure, but the entire immortal cultivation world in the East Leaving Country is only a handful, and it is good to have one in this Qingyang Valley, and it is strange to be able to give it to himself.

He couldn't help but feel that this old Tao and that Wang Zhangshan were really a natural pair, and he couldn't help but have some interest in their master.

In the other case, Li Heng didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse. It turned out that the fragments of the Hidden Mountain Beast God Diagram actually recognized the master, and when activating the magic circle, the owners of the twelve fragments needed to be injected with aura at the same time, and when the magic circle was activated, the twelve people standing nearby were naturally included in the magic circle, and they became the first to enter the secret realm.

And the fragments, plus Li Heng's piece, just happened to be gathered, and a year later, the Hidden Mountain Secret Realm would be opened on time.

When Li Heng asked if the owner of the fragment could be replaced.

"Yes," Lao Dao replied in the affirmative, but after a moment's pause, he added, "It's okay to be like Wei Laosan." ”

Like Wei Laosan? Li Heng secretly scolded in his heart, this old way is disrespectful to the old.

In the treasure pavilion, after Li Heng learned that he had gone to set what secret realm, he thought about what kind of spiritual weapon to choose, he was not very demanding, as long as he could come out alive, he believed that with his qualifications to reach the seven realms before he was twenty years old, it would not be a problem to step into the foundation building in another ten years.

If you want to come out alive, then you have to save your life, it is nothing more than shields, armor and the like, picking and choosing in the treasure pavilion, and after wandering around for a long time, Li Heng took a fancy to a gray silk armor and a pair of brown leather boots.
