Chapter 93
Tongtian Peak, Trial Hall.

The space fluctuated for a while, and Li Yu came out of the trial space again. This time, his clearance speed was slightly improved, but when he looked at the trial list, his name was still in the third place.

During this period of time, although his strength has not increased significantly, Elder Zhao has given him nearly ten Tongmai Pills one after another. So far, his acupuncture points have been opened up to [-]. Home Zhenqi, in terms of the depth of mana, has already surpassed the peak of Qi refining of the five spirit veins, and it is still ranked third...

The Kunlun disciples who waited and watched under the trial list couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"It's so fast, and you haven't surpassed the real head teacher?"

"Teacher Zhenren and Senior Sister Qin, how powerful they must be during the Qi refining period."

"It's too scary. Tianjiao's world is really beyond what we scumbags can imagine..."

……

Among the crowd, Wu Tong came out, patted Li Yu on the shoulder, and said, "Don't be discouraged, Master Master and Senior Sister Qin, not only the Heavenly Spirit Vein, but also the Shuangtian Spiritual Vein, the casting speed is naturally fast, us ordinary Disciple, it's hard to catch up..."

Li Yu was not discouraged. The Heavenly Spiritual Vessel didn't move forward, but he didn't have the true energy of martial arts. It could also be regarded as the Heavenly Spiritual Vein. It was nothing more than one less Heavenly Spiritual Vessel than them, and his current strength was not as strong as that of the others. At the peak, there is still room for improvement.

When walking out of the trial hall with Wu Tong, Wu Tong said with a smile: "I heard that you had a good time in Qingxuan Peak, and you are very appreciated by Elder Zhao."

Li Yudao: "I can't hide any news from you."

Wu Tong proudly said: "That's right, I don't spend tens of thousands of spiritual coins every month. I know all the peaks of Kunlun, and I know what's going on."

Li Yu asked: "Spreading rumors that I am an undercover agent of the Demonic Dao, do you know?"

Wu Tong was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, and said: "I checked this for you, but I didn't find it. That guy is very careful. He used a mechanism beast to send messages, so it is impossible to find someone..."

He smiled and comforted Li Yu and said, "There are so many people who are popular. The more people like you, the more people don't like you. There are many people in the sect who don't like Senior Sister Qin and Senior Sister Xu. That's why It is said that if you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. However, many of the people who like you are young senior sisters and senior sisters. Their cohesion is much stronger than those male disciples who like Senior Sister Qin and Senior Sister Xu. Who will dare to spread rumors about you in the future? , I'm afraid they will be torn apart..."

When the two parted, Wu Tong suddenly said: "By the way, Elder Zhao of Qingxuan Peak, although he is very kind to you, you should be more careful..."

Li Yu looked at him and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"

Wu Tong looked around, and said via voice transmission: "Elder Zhao is the No. 1 alchemist of the sect's third rank. I have collected a lot of information about him. He used to be a casual cultivator, and casual cultivator cultivation is much more difficult than the disciples of the sect. If you are not cruel, there is no way to get ahead. He was definitely not a kind person before, of course it may be different now, I just want to remind you, you should be careful in everything..."

Li Yu nodded and said, "Thank you for reminding me, I will be careful."

In fact, even if Wu Tong didn't remind him, Li Yu was still wary of Elder Zhao.

After experiencing Elder Sun's incident, he has completely learned his lesson.

He remembered the last lesson Elder Sun taught him before he died.

He would never take the elixir given to him by others before confirming that there is no problem with the elixir. He has no relationship with Elder Zhao, and it is only because he also entered the realm of heaven and man when he was young, and he treated him so well. , although it is not impossible, Li Yu always felt that his enthusiasm was a bit too much.

If it were any other alchemist, he might only think that it was Elder Zhao who valued him.

But Li Yu is very clear that there is no love for no reason in the world. There are even betrayals between relatives, let alone strangers who are not relatives or reasons. The only one you can trust unconditionally is yourself.

This is a precious lesson that Elder Sun bought for him with his life.

Of course, it is also possible that he judges the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. Elder Zhao may really just appreciate and value himself, but as Wu Tong said, there is no harm in being more careful in everything.

After returning to Ziyun Peak and practicing with Zhou Zixuan, several days passed.

On this day, when Li Yu came to Qingxuan Peak to hand in the elixir, Elder Zhao looked at the elixir in the jade bottle, nodded and said, "That's right, your intermittent alchemy is better, this speed of improvement, even this seat I'm all envious, I'm worthy of being the son of Alchemy..."

Li Yu said modestly: "Elder Zhao is over-rewarding. They are talking nonsense about the son of alchemy."

Zhao Guangxuan said with a smile: "Being able to enter the realm of heaven and man many times within a year is not a son of alchemy. A genius is a genius. You don't need to be humble."

After accepting the elixir, he said again: "By the way, your cultivation should have almost reached the completion of five spiritual veins, right?"

Li Yu nodded and said, "It's less than sixty Tongmai Pills."

Zhao Guangxuan thought for a while, and said: "Sixty Tongmai Pills are not too many, how about it, from next month, I will keep Qingxuanfeng's surplus Tongmai Pills for you every month, You practice to the peak of Qi refining earlier, and then I will help you refine five foundation building pills. After you build the foundation, you can try to refine the second-order pills. At that time, the second-order pills of Qingxuan Peak will also I will leave it to you to refine, and I can save time to practice, but this will delay your practice, what do you think..."

Li Yu showed gratitude, and said, "My talent for cultivating immortals is not high. It is my honor to share the worries of Elder Zhao."

When the other first-rank alchemists in Qingxuan Peak heard this, their envious eyes turned red.

Elder Zhao is not recruiting people to make alchemy, he clearly raised Li Yu as his own son.

Even his two direct disciples felt sour in their hearts, because their treatment at that time was far inferior to that of Li Yu, and some elders of the sect might not treat their own children so well.

If it wasn't for the fact that one of them was surnamed Zhao and the other was Li, Elder Zhao was mediocre in appearance, and Li Yu was handsome and handsome, they really thought Li Yu was Elder Zhao's son.

Seeing Li Yu's excited face, Zhao Guangxuan patted him on the shoulder, and suddenly asked, "By the way, do you have a spirit boat?"

Li Yu nodded and said, "I just bought it not long ago."

Zhao Guangxuan said: "That's just right, I have something important to go out for, and I may not be able to return until half a month, but I have a few bottles of elixir, which need to be sent to Yue State urgently, and handed over to an old friend. The first time I went out, it was in the opposite direction to the country of Yue. There was no time to deliver the pills in person. The country of Yue was too far away from here. If I can go back and forth, I would like to ask you to make a trip for me."

Li Yu didn't hesitate, and said with a smile, "Of course."

Others are so kind to him, teaching alchemy, giving Tongmai pills, and helping to refine Jidan, it's just a small request to help run errands, if he doesn't agree, it's too ignorant of the world.

Zhao Guangxuan handed several bottles of pills to Li Yu and said, "I'll leave this matter to you."

When they walked out of this hall, several alchemists looked at Li Yu with envy.

"Li Daoyou, congratulations."

"Elder Zhao is really kind to you."

"Are you related to Elder Zhao?"

"With the help of Elder Zhao, there is no suspense for Li Daoyou to form an alchemy in this life. I am here to congratulate in advance."

……

Elder Zhao seemed to be in a hurry, so he left the sect that day. Li Yu didn't leave immediately. He didn't leave Kunlun Cave until three days later, when he finished his work.

In the Kunlun Mountains, a gorgeous spirit boat soared into the sky, and soon disappeared into the sky.

……

Vietnam.

Under the rule of Dongfang Daomen, there are hundreds of small countries in total. Although the Yue Kingdom is also one of them, but because it is located close to the north, after leaving the Yue Kingdom and going north, it is the sphere of influence of the Demonic Soul Refining Sect, and the influence of the righteous way has been difficult to radiate. here.

Nominally, Yue Kingdom is under the rule of Yushoumen, but for hundreds of years, Yushoumen didn’t care about it at all, and a large number of casual cultivators gathered here, which also caused the Yue Kingdom to be extremely chaotic, the lives of the people were miserable, and the world of cultivating immortals was miserable People are in danger, killing and seizing treasures happen every day.

Even the magic way of the jungle is not as chaotic as the Yue Kingdom.

Yue Country, Spirit Beast Mountain Range.

Under the thick fallen leaves, several scattered cultivators were ambushing the passing immortals.

In the Spirit Beast Mountain Range, the aura is relatively abundant, and there are many monsters. Some immortals will go into the mountains to hunt monsters, and take their fur and blood. In the righteous sects, they can exchange for spirit coins, buy pills, talismans or magic weapon.

If you are lucky, you can catch some that can be used as spiritual pets and sell them to Yushoumen, which will be an extremely rich income.

However, catching monsters depends on luck. In many cases, one may not be able to catch one in a month, and there is a risk of being killed by monsters. The door is exchanged for spirit coins, and the intermediate steps are missing. From the target's body, you can find medicine, talismans, magic weapons, and so on.

"I heard that three months ago, Chen Cheng intercepted and killed a disciple of the Beast Sect in the depths of the Spirit Beast Mountain. There is also a magic weapon that can be used in the ninth level of refining Qi, and some talismans..."

"The big sects are better. I heard that as long as you can be selected, the sect will distribute these things for free on the first day of joining the sect."

"Damn it, it's really unfair. These things require a lot of spiritual coins. Let us earn them, at least ten years of hard work. Why do they have them as soon as they get started? Those sect disciples, I will kill one by one..."

"Those guys are not strong enough, they are all rich, and they are all like fat sheep..."

"Shh, don't talk, someone is coming."

……

Li Yu came to Vietnam this time to run errands for Elder Zhao. When Elder Zhao was still a casual cultivator, he had an old friend. Although that old friend has long since returned to the ruins, Elder Zhao has always treated his descendants. They are very caring, and will send some pills to them every year.

He has never been to Yue country, and he is not familiar with this place, so he intends to find someone to ask where is the river city of Yue country.

Observing with Qi Wang technique, Li Yu saw three immortal cultivators in the mountain below. Their cultivation bases were not very high, and they only looked like they were at the third or fourth level of refining Qi.

Li Yufei stepped down, planning to ask for directions.

But after he fell, he found the bodies of the three immortal cultivators hidden in the thick fallen leaves.

"Go!"

Before Li Yu could speak, a sharp sound suddenly came from his ear, the fallen leaves on the ground exploded, and three mana waves came from three directions respectively.

Two thick vines emerged from the ground and bundled towards Li Yu's feet. A huge ball of fire struck Li Yu's head. In front of it was a big knife, shining with golden light, and slashed towards him.

The cooperation of these three people is tacit, and it seems that this is not the first time they have done this.

Li Yu stood there without using his mana. The fairy clothes on his body flashed and formed a protective shield outside his body automatically. The fireball hit the protective shield and scattered in all directions. The vines were also blocked by a barrier, and finally The big knife that slashed at him hit the shield and shattered directly.

In front of Li Yu, the three people who jumped out from the pile of fallen leaves were dumbfounded.

The three of them teamed up and ambushed many practitioners. When they were caught off guard, they even instantly killed the powerhouses of the sixth level of Qi Refining, but this was the first time they encountered such a situation.

They don't even know what it is.

The man's clothes flashed, and a solid mana shield appeared. They had never heard of such a thing, and the atmosphere was awkward there for a while.

Li Yu looked at the three of them and asked, "Excuse me, how do I get to Jiangcheng?"

Among the three, a man with a scar on his face was the first to react. He pointed in a direction tremblingly, and said, "Go, fly eighty miles to the west, and then, it's Jiangcheng..."

"Thank you."

Li Yu bowed his hands to them, turned and flew away.

The three of them looked at each other, and in each other's eyes, they saw the joy of the rest of their lives.

But at the next moment, a glaring flame fell from the sky, instantly submerging the bodies of the three of them, and after a breath, there was only a scorched black pit left on the spot.

Li Yu flew westward slowly, this time the place he came to was more chaotic than any small country he had been to.

In this short period of time, he saw three incidents of attacks and killings by cultivators, one of which was aimed at him. What Wu Tong said was absolutely correct, the resources of the great world had already been divided up by the sect. The major disciples are not enough points, and the casual cultivators can't even drink soup. The cruel practice conditions have created such a bad situation.

Pills, talismans, and magic tools, only the big sects have the ability to refine them, and casual cultivators can only rely on robbing.

Those three people were filled with evil spirits, and many people died in their hands. Li Yu had never seen such evil spirits on people in the devil's way.

To say this is actually a bit of a stereotype of the Demonic Dao. Although the magical arts practiced by the Demonic Dao are a little bit worse, it is also a serious sect. The biggest contradiction with the righteous way is the dispute between the orthodox ideas of the Taoist school. Not all demonic disciples are extremely evil. Otherwise, there wouldn't be just two or three monsters on Kunlun's wanted list.

The distance of eighty miles was short, and a medium-sized city gradually appeared in front of Li Yu.

Although his landing in the city attracted a lot of attention, it didn't cause too much sensation. Ordinary people in Jiangcheng seemed to be used to cultivators.

Li Yu also found that there were significantly more immortal cultivators here than in other cities he had been to, but most of them were on the first or second level of Qi refining, and those above the fourth level of Qi refining were rare.

These casual cultivators do not have a blessed place with sufficient aura to practice, so they can only mix with mortals.

Li Yu found a random passer-by, and found out who he was looking for.

With the help of Elder Zhao, the descendant of his old friend, even if he has no talent for cultivation, can live a good life in the world. According to the passer-by, Han Yuanwai is not only in Jiangcheng, but also in the whole Yue Kingdom. , the family supported several immortal masters, and even the royal family of the Yue Kingdom treated each other with courtesy.

The Han Mansion is easy to find. It is the most prosperous area in Jiangcheng, the mansion with the largest area.

When Li Yu arrived at the Han Mansion and explained his intentions, the attitude of the members of the Han family immediately became very humble. The Han family's existence today was all thanks to the care of the elder from Kunlun, so they were naturally extra polite to Li Yu.

And Li Yu also saw the so-called immortal masters supported by the Han family. The four of them together can't make up the third level of Qi Refining, and they can turn a few fireballs out of thin air to scare ordinary people. Immortal cultivators at the lowest level can wipe them out.

However, in front of these casual cultivators, Li Yu was not arrogant.

If it hadn't been for Jiang Li's soft food and being accepted into the sect by Senior Sister Xu, his current strength would not be much stronger than these four.

Without staying too long at Han's house, Li Yu left here after handing over the pills to them.

He wandered around the street for a while, bought some local specialties, and brought them home for Zhou Zixuan and Jiang Li to taste. Kunlun lacked everything, except for these worldly fireworks.

Afterwards, he left Jiangcheng, and instead of taking the Lingboat back to his clan, he flew all the way to a certain mountain range and stopped in a certain valley.

In the valley, there is a clear stream. Li Yu beat a rabbit and two pheasants. After cleaning them, they put on the secret sauce bought on the street just now, wrapped them in lotus leaves, and spread them on the outside. Mud, buried in the fire and slowly roasted.

While waiting, Li Yu sat on a rock by the stream, staring at the handsome face in the water in a daze.

In the valley, at an unknown time, there was a sudden gust of wind.

There was also a slight ripple on the calm water surface, and beside Li Yu's handsome reflection in the water, a figure suddenly appeared.

A refined middle-aged man stood behind Li Yu and said with a smile, "You still have such leisure and elegance."

Li Yu was startled by the sudden appearance of the voice, turned his head, and when he saw the sudden appearance of the figure, he was taken aback for a moment, and then asked doubtfully: "Elder Zhao, you have something important to go out, why are you here? "

Zhao Guangxuan smiled slightly, and said: "Going out is just an excuse, otherwise, why would I ask you to come here to deliver the pill?"

Li Yu still looked blank, and asked: "Elder Zhao, why can't I understand what you said?"

Zhao Guangxuan put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "Li Yu, Li Yu, you are so smart in alchemy, why are you so stupid, but it's good to be a little confused, it's better to be a stupid ghost than a sober one..."

Li Yu seemed to realize something, sat up from the rock, distanced himself from Elder Zhao, and asked palely, "Elder Zhao, what do you mean..."

Zhao Guangxuan did not directly answer Li Yu's words, but breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Actually, when you entered the realm of heaven and man to win the championship, I wanted to search for your soul, but at that time, I was afraid Patriarch Xuanzhen felt that it might be a coincidence, but first-rank alchemist Grand Competition, you entered the realm of heaven and man, then I really started to be interested in you..."

"Soul search..."

Li Yu kept backing away, his face became even paler, and he said in a trembling voice: "I have already told you the secret of entering the realm of heaven and man, and you can't find anything even if you search my soul."

Zhao Guangxuan shook his head and said, "I don't believe what you said, I only believe what I see."

Fearing that he would get angry, Li Yu said loudly, "The Zongmen knows about this, and they will definitely not let you go!"

Hearing Li Yu talk about the Zongmen, Zhao Guangxuan laughed even more, and said: "Do you think those Yuanying Patriarchs in Zongmen are all good things? The way of magic is back to the way of magic. Besides, I just asked you to deliver the elixir. The Yue country is in such a mess. If you were accidentally killed by casual cultivators in the foundation building period, I am also very sorry, and I will compensate you for my apologies. My dual cultivators have fifty pulse-opening pills and ten pulse-expanding pills, and they still want to praise my benevolence..."

Li Yu stepped back and asked, "Aren't you afraid of being suspected by the sect?"

Zhao Guangxuan allowed Li Yu to retreat, and he was able to catch up even if he was asked to withdraw from Baili during the mere qi refining period.

He looked at Li Yu with a half-smile, and said: "Why would the sect doubt me? I treat you so well, better than my own disciples. I will teach you the way of alchemy. I will give you all the good things. What do they have? Reasons to doubt me?"

Li Yu stopped backing away, stood there, looked at Zhao Guangxuan with a calm expression, and complained: "Damn you, you are really insidious, so you have planned this long ago!"

Zhao Guangxuan looked at Li Yu, and said lightly: "You are still too young, no one has taught you, never trust anyone in your journey to immortality, in your next life, I hope you can remember..."

The fearful expression on Li Yu's face disappeared, and he suddenly said, "You are wrong."

Unexpectedly, at this time, Li Yu could still be so calm. Zhao Guangxuan was slightly taken aback, and asked, "Where did I go wrong?"

Li Yu stood where he was, and said to Zhao Guangxuan, "I'm sorry, what you said just now, someone has already taught me..."

As soon as his words fell, five extremely powerful auras suddenly rose into the sky around the valley, and the entire valley was filled with black mist. , also trapped Zhao Guangxuan in it.

Li Yu stood outside the formation, beside him, at some point, there was an extra figure.

It was a woman, dressed in black, with her hair tied up like a ponytail, her appearance was beautiful and pleasant, and she had a bit of evil spirit.

Inside the formation, looking at the five powerful auras, Zhao Guangxuan's eyes widened suddenly, and he blurted out: "Five ghosts' soul-stirring formation!"

Thinking of some rumors about Kunlun some time ago in his mind, he suddenly looked at Li Yu and said in an extremely shocked voice: "You, you are really an undercover agent of the Demon Dao!"
