Chapter 76 Li Yu's Network

When Li Yu returned to Ziyun Peak, he saw a Kunlun disciple standing at the gate of the other courtyard.

He was not very old, and he wore the alchemy apprentice uniform. Li Yu met him once when he was participating in the first-grade alchemist assessment in Lingyun Peak. He was a deacon disciple there.

Seeing Li Yu coming back, the deacon disciple took a step forward and said respectfully: "Senior brother Li, in half a month, the sect will hold a competition for first-rank alchemists. Would you like to participate?"

Although there are many alchemists in the Kunlun School, most of them are apprentices. There are less than a thousand real first-rank alchemists.

Therefore, there is no need to recommend first-grade alchemists. All first-grade alchemists are eligible to participate. The organization responsible for the competition will send deacon disciples half a month in advance. Ask OK.

Li Yu thought for a while and asked, "What rewards will there be for this first-rank alchemist competition?"

The deacon disciple said: "According to the practice of previous years, the top three in the competition will be rewarded with Tuomai Pill, and the next few will be rewarded with Pill Stove and Spirit Coins."

The deacon disciple obviously didn't know about the Pregnancy Pill, but Li Yu didn't doubt Wu Tong's intelligence ability. What he said didn't seem to be groundless.

Without the slightest hesitation, he smiled at the deacon disciple and said, "I will participate."

……

Yuxu Peak.

In the Kunlun Cave, there are more than a thousand peaks, large and small. Yuxu Peak is the only main peak, with the most intense aura, and it is also the place where the former master masters practiced.

At this moment, Yuxu Peak, inside the conference hall, is filled with a chilling atmosphere.

The middle-aged woman in palace attire, with a sullen expression, pointed to another middle-aged man in Taoist robes with a pale face, and said angrily, "Wang Daoxuan, what do you mean!"

The middle-aged man sighed, and said: "Senior Sister, there is only one Pregnancy Pill. If you want it, Brother Taiyi also wants it. As the head teacher, no matter who I give it to, I will be biased. This is also a helpless move. My disciples, compete fairly, and don’t complain when you lose.”

The middle-aged woman was obviously dissatisfied with this method, and said coldly: "My disciples are all Dharma practitioners. How can there be a decent alchemist? Isn't this partiality?"

"Junior Sister's words are wrong."

Beside the two of them, the old man in Tsing Yi, who had not spoken all the time, said lightly: "There is no decent alchemist on Jade Everest. Could it be that I have one on Yuling Peak? You have already intercepted hundreds of Tongmai Pills for your disciples. The brothers didn't say anything, but the resources of the sect are not prepared for one person, so it's only fair to give you the Pregnancy Pill?"

"Hey, Lu Taiyi, are you qualified to say this? You have withheld how many resources of the sect for that junior of the family. You think we can't see it. If it weren't for you, with his talent, he would have become the seventh son of Kunlun. Can you climb the Trial Monument?"

"Junior Sister, that disciple of yours has a transcendent talent, and it is inevitable to condense the Nascent Soul. Can't you give me this Pregnancy Pill?"

"I'll leave it to you, why, with the talent of your junior, even if you condense the Nascent Soul, there is no hope of transforming into a god in this life. It's just a waste of pills, why not let Li'er conceive as soon as possible, and give her a chance to break the void... ..."

"enough!"

……

The two of them couldn't stop arguing about this matter, the middle-aged man finally lowered his face, and after scolding, he said coldly: "This is Yuxu Peak, you two Nascent Soul Patriarchs are making a lot of noise, how decent are you? This matter is settled like this, there is only one Pregnancy Pill, since you all want it, just rely on your ability, and you can't blame others if you lose!"

After finishing speaking, he ignored the two of them, waved his sleeves, and left the hall.

When he reached a square in the apse, he breathed a sigh of relief, and sighed: "It's really hard to be a head teacher, this is not right, that is not right, I knew that I would not be a bad head teacher back then, whoever loves to be a teacher when……"

On the square, a girl in white clothes wearing a veil stood among several cranes, sprinkled Lingmi on her hands, and let them peck.

The middle-aged man looked at her and asked, "Who do you think this pregnancy pill should be given to?"

The girl looked at the crane in front of her, and said calmly, "I don't know."

"What if you are the headmaster of Kunlun?"

"I'm wrong."

The girl answered simply and decisively, not a single word was superfluous.

The middle-aged man showed a melancholy look on his face, feeling very helpless towards his direct disciple, he devoted himself to cultivating, not caring about worldly affairs, he practiced very quickly in Zhujindan, but after Nascent Soul, how would she care about it...

When the time comes, I'm afraid he will have to get rid of his old face and take her to Emei...

Jade Everest.

The first one went to find the head teacher, and when he came back, he had a bad complexion, causing the disciples and elders of Mount Yuzhu to be trembling, feeling extremely worried, for fear that something might not be done well, and she would scold her.

In Kunlun, Patriarch Xuanzhen was famous for his bad temper, and even the head teacher had to give her three points.

And the disciples of Mount Yuzhu are also very afraid of Patriarch Xuanzhen on weekdays.

Inside a large hall, a middle-aged woman said with a sullen face, "What's fair, he's deliberately embarrassing me, where is the alchemist from Jade Everest?"

Although Kunlun is famous in the practice circle for alchemy, and has the most alchemists compared with other sects, not every peak learns alchemy, most people still focus on Dharma cultivation.

Yuzhu Peak is not in the same line of alchemy, hundreds of disciples are all Dharma practitioners, even if there are alchemists, they are mainly based on interest, not to mention winning the first prize in the alchemist competition, I am afraid they will not even enter the top [-].

Xu Qingxin stood beside her and said, "There are no alchemists on Jade Everest, and neither does Jade Lingfeng. The most important thing now is to find those alchemy geniuses who are expected to win the first prize, and see if they are willing to win the first prize. Give up the Pregnancy Pill, and don't let the people from Yuling Peak take the lead..."

The middle-aged woman frowned and said, "It's such a hassle. Can't I exchange it with other treasures after they get the Pregnancy Pill?"

Xu Qingxin shook her head and said, "If you're afraid, you're afraid. People from Yuling Peak have already looked for them first. Patriarch Taiyi has a good relationship with several fourth-rank alchemists in the sect..."

She didn't say the second half of the sentence.

In the first-rank alchemy master competitions in previous years, the winners were basically the direct disciples of several fourth-rank alchemists.

The one from Yuling Peak has a very good relationship with several fourth-rank alchemists in the sect, but his master, because of his temper, has no friends in the sect...

But this time, it was obviously time to fight for connections.

Xu Qingxin understands her own master very well. It is impossible for her to condescend to ask for it. Xu Qingxin herself is also on the road of Dharma cultivation. She doesn't know many alchemists, and she has nothing to do with those genius alchemists in the sect. .

When Xu Qingxin was in a dilemma, a figure suddenly appeared in her mind.

This is for Junior Sister Jiang, and Junior Brother Li should be willing to help. He is an alchemist, and his connections in Alchemy should be better than hers.

……

Purple Cloud Peak.

In Li Yu's other courtyard, an unexpected guest ushered in.

"Senior Sister Xu, please come in..."

For Xu Qingxin's arrival, Li Yu and Zhou Zixuan are very happy. After all, the two of them can come to Kunlun from Baiyun Temple and formally embark on the road of cultivation. They have a direct relationship with Senior Sister Xu. There are many of them.

It can be said that without her, there would be no Li Yu and Zhou Zixuan today.

Li Yu personally brewed spiritual tea for her, and said with a smile, "Senior Sister Xu, please drink some tea."

A refreshing tea fragrance spread over the face, Xu Qingxin took a sip, and immediately the fragrance of the tea filled her mouth, she couldn't help but said: "Spicy spiritual tea."

Li Yu said generously: "If senior sister likes it, she can take a box with her when she leaves."

The last time he went to Jiuhuafeng, Senior Brother Zhao gave him a small box of spirit tea. Although he himself likes to drink it, Li Yu is still willing to bear the pain and give up if it is Senior Sister Xu.

"No need, no need." Xu Qingxin was focused on business, and after refusing with a smile, he asked, "I don't know if Junior Brother Li knows Cuiwei Peak, Jiuhua Peak, Biluan Peak... Qingling Peak or Baiyun Peak. Disciple, can you give me some introductions?"

Li Yudao: "In these few peaks, I do have some friends, what's the matter with Senior Sister?"

Junior Sister Zheng belongs to Cuiwei Peak, and Zhao Wuliang belongs to Jiuhua Peak.

As for the other peaks, he also has acquaintances. The top ten of the last alchemy apprentice competition almost all came from these peaks. Li Yu told them nonsense about entering the realm of heaven and man in the small courtyard of Danding Peak. secret.

Several people once invited Li Yu to Zhufeng as a guest, but Li Yu never went.

Xu Qingxin didn't explain further, she got up immediately and said: "It's not too late, let's go now, I'll talk to you slowly on the way."

Cuiwei Peak is the closest to here, so Li Yu first took Senior Sister Qingxin to Cuiwei Peak.

On the way to Cuiwei Peak, Li Yu also learned the ins and outs of the matter from her mouth.

Things are the same as what Wu Tong told him.

I don't know where this kid got the news from.

The conflict between the two Nascent Soul Patriarchs was real. This time, the first-rank alchemist competition, the leader's reward was really a fifth-rank pregnancy pill, but Li Yu learned more from Senior Sister Qingxin. .

Since the development of the world of cultivating immortals, no matter it is alchemy or talisman, the techniques are constantly innovating and improving, but the resources are getting less and less. Pregnancy pills were not very scarce before, and disciples with outstanding talents basically Everyone gets at least one.

But in recent years, with the blindly refining the main ingredient of the Pregnancy Pill, it has disappeared in the world of cultivating immortals. Before a replacement main ingredient is found, this Pregnancy Pill is the last one in the sect, and the competition is naturally extremely fierce.

Taking the fifth-level elixir as a reward for the first-grade alchemist competition, although the way of teaching the real person seems rash, but under the dilemma, it may not be a good way to evade responsibility and transfer conflicts.

Xu Qingxin thought of something, and asked Li Yudao: "This time, will Junior Brother Li participate in the alchemy competition?"

Li Yu smiled and said: "I have also signed up, but I have not long been promoted to a first-rank alchemist, and the most important thing is to participate..."

Xu Qingxin comforted Li Yu and said, "It's okay, Junior Brother Li is still young, and there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

The difficulty of the first-grade alchemist competition is not the same as that of the apprentice competition. Some of the outstanding ones already have the ability to refine the entry-level second-level alchemy, but they have not passed the second-grade alchemist assessment. High-grade pills are naturally picked up at will, and have a high rate of top quality.

She never thought that Li Yu could get the baby pregnancy pill. After all, he had only been a first-rank alchemist for a few months, and the first-rank alchemy could not be completely refined, unless he could enter the realm of heaven and man again in the finals of the competition, but This is obviously impossible...

Li Yu and Xu Qingxin chatted while flying, and soon came to Cuiwei Peak.

In front of the gate of Cuiwei Peak, Li Yu met an acquaintance.

Xu Qingxin found out that Lu Xingzhou was also at Cuiwei Peak, and her heart sank slightly. It seemed that the people from Yuling Peak had taken the lead.

When Lu Xingzhou saw Li Yu, it could be said that his enemies met, and he was extremely jealous.

Although he and Li Yu did not have any real deep hatred, but in order to get on the trial list, he painstakingly suppressed his cultivation for two years, and Li Yu only spent three days, making his two years in vain. , he hated it so much...

In the last few days, he had managed to get out of this matter, and seeing Li Yu's face reminded him of this hate matter again.

But the matter is important, he first suppressed the emotions in his heart, cupped his hands to a middle-aged man, and said: "Senior Brother Chen, I will leave this matter to you, no matter whether it is successful or not, Yuling Peak will prepare for it." For the last gift, if Senior Brother Chen wins the first prize, the Patriarch will personally prepare a generous gift for you..."

Xu Qingxin secretly thought that it was not good. According to Cuiweifeng's statement, he is a leader among the first-rank alchemists in the sect. A popular candidate for the leader of the second big competition.

She came to Cuiwei Peak this time for this person, but she came a step late and was snatched by Lu Xingzhou.

However, Lu Xingzhou seemed to have known him for a long time, even if she had come earlier, the other party would probably not agree.

Li Yu ignored Lu Xingzhou, and said to Cuiwei Peak's gatekeeper disciple, "Senior brother, please inform Junior Sister Zheng that Li Yu has something to look for her."

After Lu Xingzhou made an agreement with Chen Chen, he did not leave in a hurry. Cuiweifeng had the strength to win the championship, and Chen Chen was the only one. He wanted to see what trouble Li Yu and Junior Sister Xu could make.

Not long after the gatekeeper sent a message with the snail, a figure flew over from the peak, Zheng Keqi landed beside Li Yu, and said pleasantly, "Brother Li, why are you free to come to Cuiwei Peak today?"

After exchanging pleasantries with Junior Sister Zheng, Li Yucai introduced her: "This is Senior Sister Xu from Mount Yuzhu. She has something to do with you."

Of course, Zheng Keqi has heard of Senior Sister Xu of Jade Everest. Like himself, she is a well-known female arrogance of the sect. She became famous earlier than him. It's just that they are one alchemy cultivator and the other Dharma cultivator, and they are not familiar with each other. .

Before Xu Qingxin could speak, Zheng Keqi took the initiative to say: "Senior sister Xu came this time because of the pregnancy pill, the master said just now that we are not allowed to participate in the matter of the two Yuanying patriarchs..."

Hearing this, Chen Chen froze for a moment, and asked, "Junior Sister, Master really said that?"

Zheng Keqi nodded, and said: "Master told me personally just now, why, Senior Brother Chen wants to interfere in the affairs of Patriarch Xuanzhen and Patriarch Taiyi?"

The expression on the statement changed, he just had some personal friendship with Lu Xingzhou, and wanted to get a generous reward, but he would never dare to violate the order of the master.

He immediately said to Lu Xingzhou: "Junior Brother Lu, I'm really sorry, Master has an order, and I can only obey it. I'm afraid I won't be able to do what I promised you just now."

Lu Xingzhou felt a little regretful when he heard the words, but since Changchun Daoist made an order, he couldn't say anything.

Cuiwei Peak didn't help him, at least not Yuzhu Peak either.

At this time, Zheng Keqi changed his voice and said: "Although Master said that, but since Brother Li has spoken, I will go to persuade Master again, you wait here for a while..."

After speaking, she flew up in a hurry.

Lu Xingzhou stared dumbfounded, how can this be persuaded?
He looked at the statement, and the statement gave him a look of helplessness. They are also Master's disciples, but they are also very close. Junior Sister Zheng is the treasure of the Master, and the Master regarded her as the next head of Cuiwei Peak. , what she said in front of the master, but what he said was just an ordinary disciple.

Cuiwei Peak, somewhere in the palace on the peak.

A middle-aged woman heard Zheng Keqi's words and said, "Since that's the case, then you can decide this matter yourself. After all, Li Yu has a great kindness to you, and this happens to be an opportunity to repay the kindness of others."

An experience in the realm of heaven and man is a great fortune for an alchemist.

Before entering the realm of heaven and man, she refined low-level pills, at most five top-quality pills, but once she entered the realm of heaven and humans, her level of alchemy improved greatly, and now a furnace of pills can be refined casually Seven or eight top-quality pills are produced, and even the refining of first-order elixir has a high top-quality rate.

Even if she is a master, it is impossible to help her so much.

It can be said that Li Yu has shown great kindness to her precious disciple.

She also owed the other party a favor.

At the mountain gate of Cuiwei Peak, Junior Sister Zheng went back quickly and said to Li Yu with a smile, "Okay, Master has agreed, if a disciple of Cuiwei Peak wins the leader, the Pregnancy Pill can be given to Yuzhu Peak, But Patriarch Xuanzhen also wants to exchange something of equivalent value..."

Xu Qingxin was overjoyed, and immediately said: "Of course."

How precious is the Pregnancy Pill, if others get it, it is naturally impossible to give it away for nothing.

Lu Xingzhou was in a daze.

What he had said was good, but was disturbed by Li Yu's words...

A few black lines appeared on his forehead, he cupped his hands at the statement, and said, "In that case, I'll take my leave first..."

Xu Qingxin never expected that Cuiwei Peak and her party would go so smoothly. A fourth-rank alchemist has an extremely high status in the sect, so she can completely ignore her master's face, but in this matter, even neutral He had no choice but to stand directly on their side.

She guessed that Li Yu should have some contacts in alchemy, but she never expected that he could actually influence the decision of a fourth-rank alchemist.

After thanking Senior Sister Zheng, Li Yu took Senior Sister Xu to Jiuhua Peak again.

Lu Xingzhou was also here, blocked from the peak gate, and was talking to a man wearing the robe of a first-grade alchemist. The man looked helpless and said, "Sorry, Junior Brother Lu, Master has an order, no Let us get involved in this matter, please go back..."

Clearly, he hit a snag here.

Even the fourth-rank alchemist was unwilling to participate in the dispute between the two late Yuanying ancestors.

Li Yu asked Shoufeng's disciple to inform Zhao Wuliang, and the Shoufeng disciple handed the snail to Li Yu, and Li Yu heard Zhao Wuliang's voice from inside: "Junior Brother Li, you can come up directly, anyway, you know where I live... ..."

Li Yu from Jiuhua Peak came once, and he returned the snail to the disciple guarding the peak, and said to Xu Qingxin: "Senior Sister, let's go in."

Looking back at Lu Xingzhou, Li Yu led Xu Qingxin into the peak protection formation.

The same Kunlun Seven Sons, when he came here just now, he could only wait here, but Junior Sister Xu and Li Yu were able to go in directly, which made Lu Xingzhou extremely unbalanced.

The first-rank alchemist sensed Lu Xingzhou's displeasure, and explained: "Don't blame Junior Brother Lu, those two are friends of Junior Brother Zhao, Senior Brother Zhao is the first disciple, and his authority in Jiuhua Peak is much greater than mine... "

Jiuhua Peak, a large hall on the top of the peak.

Zhao Wuliang offered two cups of spiritual tea, and said, "Junior Brother Li and Senior Sister Xu came here probably for the matter of the Pregnancy Pill. Master has already said that, if the disciples of Jiuhuafeng won the leader, I will return this elixir to the sect in exchange for some precious elixir, I'm sorry, I really can't help you with this favor."

Xu Qingxin still thanked her, and Jiuhuafeng would not help each other, which is not a bad thing for Yuzhufeng.

Zhao Wuliang said: "As far as I know, the uncles and uncles of the other peaks have also issued similar orders, only the uncle Yuyangzi owed a favor to Yuling Peak a hundred years ago, and if he promised To win the first prize, I will give the Pregnancy Pill to Uncle Taiyi..."

After leaving Jiuhua Peak, Li Yu took Xu Qingxin to Qinglan Peak, Baiyun Peak, etc...

As Zhao Wuliang said, although Deng Qingsong, He Jin, and Liu Ren were extremely enthusiastic towards Li Yu and Xu Qingxin, they all apologized and said that although they wanted to help Li Yu, because of the order of their master, they really did not I can't help...

This is not bad news. Although they didn't agree to Li Yu, they didn't agree to Lu Xingzhou either. Li Yu has acquaintances in various peaks, and he and Senior Sister Xu can at least come in for a cup of tea. Lu Xingzhou can only wait outside.

In the end, among all the peaks, Cuiwei Peak was definitely on the side of Yuzhu Peak, and another fourth-rank alchemist, because he owed a great favor to the Lu family's ancestors, stood on the side of Yuling Peak.

This result, Xu Qingxin is acceptable.

At least, both sides are fair competition.

After letting out a sigh of relief, she also had to marvel at Li Yu's wide network.

In every peak she was going to, he actually had friends whom she could talk to. Although they were not close friends, they could indeed bring her a lot of convenience. Everything is in order.

Because Li Yu was with him all the way, and asked for the same things, Lu Xingzhou could only stand and enjoy the breeze at the gates of the peaks, but they could sit and drink tea inside. This is the role of connections...

When returning from Baiyun Peak, Xu Qingxin said to Li Yu: "This time I really thank Junior Brother Li."

Li Yu waved his hand and said, "Senior Sister, you are welcome."

When he first started, Senior Sister Xu helped him a lot. When Li Yu said that he would report every day, he didn't just talk about it casually. This small favor is nothing at all.

What's more, all of this is for Jiang Li, I don't need Senior Sister Xu to say, I will help her...
