Qingling City, a small city near the periphery of the Diling Mountain Range, with a radius of only ten miles and a population of less than 20,000, it is better to say that it is a city than a village. Almost all the aborigines here are monks, but most of the realms stay in the acquired realm, and even the innate realm is relatively rare, even the city lord of the Qingling City is only worthy of the success of building the foundation, and the strength is not yet stable!

However, although it is small, even if its strength is low, but above Shenzhou, Qingling City is also famous, and the reason for this is precisely because he is close to the Earth Spirit Mountain Range!

The Earth Spirit Mountain Range, as the name suggests, is a colony of spirit beasts!

Above Shenzhou, the spirit beasts are divided into nine orders, the first to second orders are called yellow worms, the third to fifth orders are called mysterious things, the sixth to seventh orders are called earth spirits, and the eighth to ninth orders are called heavenly birds!

And the level of these spirit beasts corresponds to the level of human cultivators, the highest yellow worm is equivalent to the human foundation building monk, the highest can be compared with the monk in the middle stage of the Spirit Realm, and some of the anti-heaven mysterious things can even fight the human god cultivators in the late stage of the Spirit Realm.

Regarding the earth spirit, it was a powerful existence comparable to the human cultivator Yuan Infant Realm cultivator, but there were also some congenitally deficient earth spirit-level spirit beasts that stayed in the late stage of the human cultivator spirit realm!

As for the Heavenly Bird, it is very rare to see it above the Divine Continent, because it is an anti-heaven existence that can be comparable to the late stage of the Human Cultivator Dividing God Realm, this is still the lowest level of the eighth-order Heavenly Bird, as for the ninth-order Heavenly Bird, it is a rumored spirit beast, it is rumored that it can be hard with the strong man of the Human Divine Cultivator Refining Void Realm without falling behind, but above this Divine Continent, in the past thousand years, I have not heard of a strong person in the Refining Void Realm!

I'm afraid that only the upper realm in the mouth of the old man will have more powerful heavenly birds and human cultivators!

And the name of this Earth Spirit Mountain Range is not groundless, in the depths of the Earth Spirit Mountain Range, there is indeed a powerful existence of a seventh-order Earth Spirit level spirit beast.

It is rumored that three monks of the Yuan Infant Realm had formed a team to go deep into the Earth Spirit Mountain Range because they coveted the seventh-order spirit beast of the Earth Spirit Mountain Range (Du Erdan is where the Spirit Beast Shenyuan is located, which is equivalent to the Yuan Infant of the human monk!), but the final result was that two monks in the early stage of the Yuan Infant Realm died, one was defeated, and the two who died even became the things in the belly of the spirit beast, and the one who escaped was a little higher in the realm, but he was also quite miserable and lost an arm.

Although the damage to the body is not fatal for a cultivator, it is also extremely power-consuming to reforge the body!

From this point of view, the power of this earth spirit level spirit beast is no longer daring to have a monk go deep into the earth spirit mountain range, and at most he only operates in the middle and periphery.

It's just that the Crossing of this spirit beast is too tempting, because the more high-level the spirit beast is Crossing Erydan, the more it can exponentially increase the chances of the success of the human monk's advancement.

But often the higher the return, the more it represents the high risk, although the spirit beast's crossing of the Erdan is good, but the spirit beast is not made of mud, let you take care of it! You want their lives, of course they will fight with you, so even if they have not entered the core area of the Earth Spirit Mountain Range, but over the years, I still don't know how many high-level or low-level monks have died in this Earth Spirit Mountain Range!

Even so, over the years, there has been an endless stream of monks who have come to this Spirit Mountain Range to hunt spirit beasts and capture Duerdan.

The greedy nature of human nature is fully manifested here.

Therefore, if you see a powerhouse in the Spirit Realm or even the Yuan Infant Realm in Qingling City, don't be surprised, because there is nothing to be surprised about, they just came to the Earth Spirit Mountain Range to hunt spirit beasts and temporarily settle down in this Qingling City!

Over time, the reputation of this Qingling City slowly spread!

And three months ago, Lu Li, who had just recovered from his serious injuries, listened to Mu Lao's advice before he fell asleep, did not stay in the Diling Mountain Range anymore, and left the cave.

His luck is not bad, he has not encountered any spirit beasts in this Qingling City along the way, otherwise, with his humble strength in the innate middle realm, I am afraid that he would have already become the belly of the spirit beast.

After coming to this Qingling City, he inadvertently got acquainted with Fan Yan, the lord of this Qingling City.

This Fan Yan was familiar with Lu Li at first sight, seeing that he was already a cultivator in the Innate Middle Realm at a young age, and there was a great possibility that he would succeed in building a foundation in the future, and then they would have another boost in Qingling City, even if Lu Li's current strength was of great help to them. So he tried his best to keep Lu Li and asked him to stay here in Qingling City as an offering.

I don't blame this Fan Yan for the reality, I only blame them for the low strength of Qingling City, although there are not a few high-level monks in Qingling City, and even the monks of the Yuanying Realm have seen it, but that is not the foundation of their Qingling City, Fan Yan didn't dare to ask those strong people to do their Qingling City's offerings, how could people look down on you, a small worship in Qingling City, even if you give up your position as the city lord, people won't necessarily take a second look.

So this Fan Yan hit Lu Li's idea.

Lu Li originally refused, but after getting along for a period of time, Lu Li found that this Fan Yan was also a person who could be friended, and he himself was now in urgent need of a place to stay, so he agreed to Fan Yan's request and stayed here in Qingling City to make offerings, and now it has been more than two months!

On this day, Fan Yan sent someone to invite Lu Li over, thinking that there was something important to discuss with Lu Li.

Originally, he made this Qingling City offering, but Lu Li thought that there was a lot to do, and it would be very troublesome. Who knows that there is nothing at all, it is just an idle, and you can still receive three Shenyuan stones from Qingling City every month.

But Lu Li knew that these three Shenyuan stones would not be so easy to take, once something really happened to Qingling City, he would have to do his real strength, but if it was really within his ability, Lu Li would not mind, after all, he couldn't do this kind of thing just by taking money!

Traveling all the way unimpeded, Lu Li rushed to the City Lord's Mansion.

There was only one person standing quietly in the lobby, and there was no entourage around, it was Fan Yanqi!

Judging from his face, this is an old man who is over the age of six. The red face is full of energy, but it looks very energetic.

But Lu Li still couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "I am now twenty-five, do I have to be like Fan Yan to be over the age of sixteen to build a successful foundation?"

In fact, for those who cultivate gods, the passage of time is a normal thing.

For a monk who has successfully built a foundation, the lifespan can increase to two hundred, and for the strong in the fetal breath realm, the lifespan is more than three hundred, and when the fetal breath realm is reached, the monk's natural aging will become extremely slow, and it will take more than ten years to notice the difference from the external appearance. When it comes to the Spiritual Realm, the appearance will basically maintain the status quo, as long as there are no major changes, it will not change its appearance when the longevity is exhausted, and when it comes to the Spiritual Realm, the life expectancy of the monk has increased to five hundred, and when it comes to the Yuan Infant Realm, the longevity has increased to eight hundred, and the appearance is not decaying!

As for the higher realms, their lifespans will become longer and more terrifying, so I will not mention them here, and I will dabble in them one by one in the future.

"City Lord!" Lu Li shouted at Fan Yan!

"Lu Li, you're here!"

Fan Yan looked up and smiled at Lu Li.

"I'm bothering you to come here this time because I have something important to discuss!"

Lu Wei smiled bitterly, it was really something coming. However, his face did not show it, he still looked as usual, and said to Fan Yan: "If the city lord has anything, just give orders, as long as it is within Lu Li's ability, Lu Li will not shirk!"

Although Lu Li doesn't like trouble, he can't just eat white food and not do things, besides, Lu Li really needs those three Divine Yuan Stones now, which will be of great benefit to his cultivation at the current stage!

Fan Yan nodded, his face was embarrassed, and he hesitated for a while before he said slowly: "Actually, what I asked you to discuss this time is not my Qingling City's business, so it's up to you to decide whether to go or not, I won't force it!

"Oh!"

Lu Li's brows were slightly curled, and a trace of curiosity appeared on his face.

"The city lord will talk about it first, what kind of good thing it is!"

After a little thought, Fan Yan began to narrate what happened!

"That's right, three days ago, a senior from the Spirit Realm came to the mansion to look for me......

Lu Li's heart sank at the moment, and he said secretly: "It's not good, isn't it the people from the four major sects chasing after me?" No, I have already inquired with someone, the Thundering Mountain is tens of thousands of miles away from here, and the four major sects shouldn't be chasing here! Could it be that their sense of smell is so sensitive?!"

Although he was a little vigilant in his heart, and even secretly prepared for a sudden attack, he still didn't leak his voice on the surface, and quietly listened to Fan Yan's explanation of cause and effect! And Fan Yan's next words really made him breathe a sigh of relief!

“...... He asked me to gather a group of about twenty or so congenital and backward realm monks in this Qingling City, and after seven days, I will go to the Earth Spirit Mountain Range with that senior to do something, and there will be a rich reward after the deed is completed! But these days, I have only managed to get seventeen people, and that senior said that at least eighteen people must be gathered, so I am looking for you!"

"Could it be that Qingyun City can't even get together these twenty people?"

Lu Li was surprised, although he knew that this Qingyun City was not big and the population was not large, but almost everyone was a monk, how could it be that there were not even twenty monks from the Congenital Realm! At the beginning, the four sects of the Thundering Mountain were full of tens of thousands of disciples from the Innate Descendant Realm to participate, such a gap was really a bit appalling!

Fan Yan smiled and nodded, his smile was full of bitterness! He sighed:

"That's why I strongly asked you to stay in this Qingyun City in the first place! Those high-level seniors didn't dare to open this mouth, and people didn't look down on me in Qingyun City, as for those low-level monks who could walk here from other places, there were very few!"

Lu Li looked at the white-haired Fan Yan in front of him, and began to understand his difficulties a little, this Qingling City Lord is probably not easy to be, foreign monks will not take him seriously, and the local strength is so weak! It's just that what makes Lu Li strange is that with such a big treasure house as the Earth Spirit Mountain Range, this Qingling City will not fall into such a field!

Although he had doubts, he couldn't ask directly, but another doubt in Lu Xuan really needed to be answered in time.

"Since that senior is looking for a monk from the Innate Late Realm, and I am currently only in the Innate Middle Realm, I'm afraid I won't be able to help much, the city lord is looking for me?"

"Oh, that's right!"

Fan Yan seemed to have guessed that Lu Li would ask this question, and he was not surprised at all by what Lu Li mentioned, and replied casually:

"Knowing the situation in our Qingyun City, that senior lowered the standard again, saying that those in the Innate Middle Realm are barely acceptable!"

Lu Li nodded, he was not surprised by this answer, he had guessed some before!

"Since I can make the city lord work so hard to recruit people, I don't doubt the rich reward at all. However, it must be risky to do something for that senior!"

Fan Yan glanced at Lu Li differently, but he still didn't hide it.

"That's right, it's a big risk!"

"But the reward is also quite rich, the senior promised, after the deed is completed, each person will have a Tsukidan!"

Hearing Fan Yan say that the reward was Zhuji Dan, Lu Li was not surprised at all, I am afraid that there is only one thing that can impress so many monks in the congenital and posterior realms to work hard.

It's just that no matter how rich the reward is, he has to have a life to take it, he Lu Li is not a fool!

"Shall the lord of the city go with him?"

Lu Li asked calmly.

At this time, Fan Yan couldn't see through this land.

Through a few days of communication, Fan Yan also has a preliminary understanding of Lu Li, although this person's strength is not high, but he has the city government in his chest, and he is by no means a simple character. Now Lu Li's performance has strengthened his previous thoughts, and even put a big question mark on Lu Li.

The monks of the Innate and Backward Realms he recruited before, when they heard him say that the thing in return was Tsukidan, their eyes were fierce, their faces were full of greed, and they agreed without thinking about it, but only this Lu Li seemed to be unmoved, his face was calm, and he asked himself if he would also follow!

"Yes, I will go with me, among the seventeen!"

"Then dare to ask the city lord, what is the reward that the senior promised to the city lord?"

When Fan Yan heard this, he was obviously stunned, and the anger in his eyes flashed, if it weren't for Lu Li is worship in Qingling City, I am afraid that he would have turned his face on the spot.

He glanced at Lu Li meaningfully, and said coldly:

"It doesn't hurt to tell you, that senior promised me a high-level magic weapon!"

Lu Li touched his nose and smiled wryly.

"It seems that this Fan Yan City Lord has misunderstood what I mean!"

This Fan Yan did misunderstand.

He thought that Lu Li was dissatisfied with the return of Tsukidan, and had bigger plans and coveted his return. Originally, he still looked at Lu Li, but at the moment, he felt that Lu Li was a little ignorant, and it was a good thing to have a plan, but he didn't know that satisfaction was a taboo, for those who were on the way to cultivating God, they must know satisfaction, and insatiable people would eventually die miserably, and Lu Li was guilty of this kind of taboo in Fan Yan's heart at the moment!

Lu Li also saw what Fan Yan meant, and knew that his problem was a bit excessive, and it was easy for people to misunderstand, so he quickly explained:

"City Lord, you misunderstood, I, Lu Li, am not an insatiable person, and I just asked this question to confirm the doubts in my heart!"

"What doubts!"

After listening to Lu Li's explanation, Fan Yan's expression eased a little, but he was still a little displeased.

"What doubts?"

"I want to see how dangerous this trip to the Earth Spirit Mountain Range is!"

"Oh, what do you think now?" Fan Yan's anger seemed to have almost subsided, and he asked again.

"Nine deaths, one life!"
