Lord of Bones

Chapter 225 Red Cloud Town

"There is nothing wrong with it. Let's go look for Zikucao. Xiao Yuan, there is plenty of money, let's buy it.

"Of course, if we are lucky enough to come across them, we will pick them ourselves. Do you know where they are?" Yuan Yao blinked and asked.

Li Yunqing on the side reminded: "Yuan Yao, you talk too much today, aren't you afraid that little Yuanzi will take care of you?"

Yuan Yao's expression changed suddenly, she hurriedly sat behind Li Yuan, and said nothing.

"If I knew it was there, I would tell you? However, you can rest assured that I am not from the Liu family. I have a deacon in a branch in Tianlinghai, who collects Zikucao for them.

"If you go so rashly, I'm afraid you won't be able to buy a single plant. The Zikucao that the Liu family sells to the outside world every year has been allocated a share in the previous year, and now we can only apply for the quota in advance for next year."

Chi Lingyu looked at Yuan Yao who shrank behind Li Yuan and smiled.

"Tianlinghai is one of the eight super sects on the mainland, do we have to follow the rules of the Luoyunliu family?" Li Yunqing was startled, then asked.

"Of course." Chi Lingyu nodded and said, "Although this is the area under the control of Jinling Mountain, within a radius of [-] miles, except Jinling Mountain has a stronghold, the other seven sects have set up strongholds here to check and balance each other.

"Since you have come to look for Zikucao, you should know its value. In the Nirvana realm, although there are many pills to assist cultivation, the best pills are Zongyuan Dan, Ziyuan Pill and Chenyuan Pill.

"Zongyuan Pill, the effect is the best when it has just entered the Nirvana realm. When the cultivation base enters the middle stage of Nirvana realm, the effect of Zongyuan Pill will obviously decline, and it is far inferior to Ziyuan Pill.

"In the middle and late stages of Nirvana, most of them practice with Ziyuan Dan. These two levels are innumerable among the eight sects, so this pill is the most popular.

"Zhikucao is the most critical material for refining Ziyuan Pill. Wherever it appears, the Eight Sects must contend for it. Even if the Luoyun Mountain Range is within the Jinling Mountain's sphere of influence, they don't want to take it to themselves."

Li Yuan rubbed his chin and murmured: "So, there are not many Nirvana-level powerhouses nearby. It seems that Zikucao is really hard to get."

Thinking about it now, the elder from the previous family faction was considered a formidable powerhouse in Yangyan City, but here, it really wasn't enough.

"That's natural. Fifty people from the Nirvana Realm near the Luoyun Mountains went up. Most of them were the deacons of the Eight Sects, and their cultivation bases were in the early stage of Nirvana Realm.

"It's not a wise move for you to come here. If you change your mind now, I can send you back." Chi Lingyu's words seemed to be persuasive.

Shaking his head, Li Yuan said slowly: "Since we're here, there's no need to visit Baipao. It's better to go and have a look. If it's not possible, it's not too late to leave."

"It's easy to enter Yunliu City during this time, but it's not so easy to leave. Since Liu Hongfei, the elder of the Liu family, stole Hei Yao's cloud-chasing umbrella last month, Yunliu City has been unable to enter." Chi Lingyu immediately stopped Li Yuan's thoughts. .

Yuan Yao stretched her neck from Li Yuan's back, and asked weakly: "That...what is the Hei Yao Chasing Cloud Umbrella?"

Chi Lingyu let out a long breath, and said in a deep voice: "The Heiyao Chasing Cloud Umbrella, the top grade king tool, is the Liu family who purchased Zikucao worth 20 top grade primordial stones in exchange for it from Qianjimen.

"The low-grade Xuanbao, which is inferior, is only at this price. The price is so expensive, it is enough to prove that it is not an ordinary king's treasure that can be recognized by a drop of blood.

"It is said that it was created by a mysterious treasure master from Qianjimen, as long as there is enough energy poured in, it can exert the power of low-grade mysterious treasures.

"At the same time, it is also an extremely good self-defense weapon, and ordinary Nirvana realm cannot break through its defense at all.

"The Heiyao Cloud Chasing Umbrella also has a drawback, it is only suitable for primordial practitioners who have practiced water attribute techniques. Otherwise, its value would be more than 20 top-grade primordial stones.

"The Liu family majored in water-attribute exercises, so they paid such a high price to get it and regard it as the family's treasure.

"There are not many ordinary top-grade king weapons, even in the Eight Sects. Generally, they can only be owned by those who have reached the late stage of Nirvana."

Listening to the old man's introduction, Yuan Yao hid behind Li Yuan, put her hands on her chest, and kept circling her two index fingers, her expression fluctuating.

"It is rumored that the ancestor of the Liu family is also the current head of the Liu family, Liu Tianyun, whose cultivation has reached the peak of the middle stage of Nirvana. Is it true?"

Li Yuan wanted to find out the specific strength of the Liu family. After all, the gap between each level of Nirvana was not small, so he had to be careful.

Chi Lingyu shook his head slightly, and said in a deep voice: "The specific cultivation level of the old woman is not clear. The old man has only come to Luoyun Mountain Range for ten years, and she has been in seclusion for a long time at that time, and she has not seen her.

"Although the lifespan of human beings is relatively short, it is not necessary to cultivate so crazily. After all, the lifespan of Nirvana Realm and Yuandan Realm is the same.

"There's no need to waste resources on one person. It's better to train more people and break through to the Yuandan realm. According to the old man's guess, she should be in the late stage of hitting the Nirvana realm after retreating for so long.

"However, if the primordial bone in the body is not a first-class mortal bone, it will be extremely difficult to enter the later stage."

Li Yuan nodded silently, he and Chi Lingyu's speculation coincided with each other.

"Little Ling Yu is in a good mood, but he sees too clearly. If you can ignite the ambition in his heart, with your current strength, it is worth paying attention to. Maybe you will be grateful to you in the future." Ling suddenly said.

"He is a strong man in Nirvana, thank me?" Li Yuan said.

"Guan Tian and Li Fu are not in Nirvana yet." Ling said.

"He is already in Nirvana, and I have nothing to help him."

Ling thought for a while, and said, "I can give you more information about their family, it depends on how you use it."

Li Yuan thought for a moment, then asked with a smile: "Old Chi, you are so indifferent to the matter of cultivation, but you are relying on the longevity of the spirit of heaven."

"That's right, the Lingyu clan of Tianling has a lifespan of 800 years in the nirvana state, which is 300 years longer than the strong humans in the Yuanshen state.

"So, our family, if we cultivate slowly, we have a high chance of breaking through to the primordial spirit realm." Chi Lingyu smiled.

Li Yuan couldn't help asking: "Old Chi, don't you want to go through the catastrophe and hit the realm of transformation patterns? Tianling breaks through from the nirvana realm to the primordial god realm, and his lifespan is only increased by 200 years. There is no need to waste the extra few years before." Century advantage.

"What's more, the bloodline inheritance of the Chiyu lineage of the Lingyu clan is already close to the bloodline of ordinary beasts."

Hearing these words, Chi Lingyu was shocked deep in his heart. He never expected that the young man in front of him would have such lofty pursuits.

He never thought about crossing the heavenly tribulation.

He has no status in the clan, and the cultivation resources he has obtained are limited. When he broke through to Nirvana, he was almost three hundred years old.

Nirvana consumes a lot of resources, so he left his hometown.

By chance, she strayed into Qinggu Continent and got a branch deacon in Tianlinghai.

It is impossible to change Chi Lingyu's inherent thoughts with a few words, so Li Yuan shifted the topic to other things.

Along the way, the few people chatted a lot, and through Chi Lingyu's narration, their understanding of the world outside Daxia increased a lot.

Time passed, and soon it was sunset the next day.

The Black Cloud Eagle landed slowly on a towering cliff. When its huge wings flapped, it brought a strong wind, causing the surrounding rocks to roll down and the giant trees to shake.

Looking at the setting sun constantly falling towards the Luoyun Mountains, Chi Lingyu smiled and said: "You can reach Hongyun Town fifty or sixty miles north from here.

"The old man can only send you here. Starting from Hongyun Town, you will enter the core area of ​​the Liu family. Even if you are a member of the Eight Sects, you should not be too blatant. After all, you have to show some face. It’s not worth the candle.”

"Thank you Chi Lao! There will be a later date!" Li Yuan bowed his hands to Chi Lingyu, pulled Yuan Yao up, and flew towards the north with a flash of his figure.

Li Yunqing and Shi Chen bowed slightly to Chi Lingyu, and followed closely.

"Chilao, this is a mid-level four fire monster inner alchemy, if you value it, refine it, and if you are lucky, you might be able to advance to the mid-level.

"Presumably you have saved some resources over the years. With the blood of the race, when refining the inner alchemy, it is not difficult to retreat for a few more years to reach the peak in the mid-term.

"Mountains don't turn around. If there is fate, there is still a chance to meet each other. I hope that when the time comes, you and I will both be strong."

Hearty laughter fell, and a small red light flew over from the sky. Chi Lingyu stretched out his hand covered with red feathers, and sucked the red light into his palm, his eyes flashed with surprise.

He raised his head and looked at the northern sky again. Li Yuan and the others had turned into a few small black spots, and then quickly disappeared into the continuous mountains.

"The days of this old man have indeed been too leisurely. You gave this old man such a big gift when you get along with him every day. Boy, it's rare for you to think highly of this old man. I will definitely live up to your expectations." Chi Lingyu slowly retracted his gaze and looked at the old man again. Start with the monster Neidan in his hand.

Although this inner alchemy is only a monster inner alchemy in the middle stage of the fourth level, the fire energy contained in it is majestic. With the powerful blood power, plus other auxiliary training materials, there is a high chance of entering the middle stage.

If he really enters the middle stage of Nirvana, he doesn't need to stay here as a branch deacon, but can be a branch protector and get more cultivation resources.

Half an hour later, the sun had set.

There are mountains and forests everywhere, and the fog is getting thicker.

Three glows fell outside Hongyun Town.

"Xiao Yuan, why did you give the old man an inner alchemy. The monster inner alchemy in the middle of the fourth level is worth at least five or six hundred top-quality primordial stones, and the fire-type monster inner alchemy is even more sought-after."

On the way to Hongyun Town, Yuan Yao suddenly said.

In the past few years, she has followed Li Yuan, and she has figured out the value of various materials very clearly, so as not to be fooled by the latter.

With a faint smile, Li Yuan glanced at Shi Chen, and explained: "The blood of the Tianling, Lingyu clan, and Chiyu clan is no worse than that of the Shichen clan.

"That old Mr. Chi, Ling thinks he's a nice person with good talent, but maybe he hasn't been valued by his family.

"Although it's just Ling's speculation, if I give him an inner alchemy, it can stimulate his confidence, maybe he will explode and become a strong man in the future." Li Yuan said.

"Help him become a strong man?" Yuan Yao wondered, "It's no good."

At this time, Ling preached to Yuan Yao: "When others are weak, push them up. If they can become strong in the future, they will return more than a small fourth-level monster inner alchemy.

"When Li Yuan and the others were in Maran City, they could rely on the family. Now, to a certain extent, the family is relying on them.

"As your cultivation level improves, you will meet more strong people. You don't have strong people to rely on, so you can't rely on me for everything."

"You just want to be lazy and sleep every day. I haven't seen you contribute to monsters." Yuan Yao said.

"Have you contributed?" Ling asked.

"Of course I made an effort, at least I kicked twice."

"Little girl, you're disobedient now, aren't you? Li Yuan, go to the power grid."

Hearing this, Yuan Yao directly stayed away from Li Yuan.

Li Yuan ignored the quarrel between the two, he wished someone could suppress Ling.

He secretly recalled some of the truths that Ling said in his heart, and nodded silently.

After a pause, Li Yuan raised his head to look at the sky, and then said in a deep voice, "We will find a place to rest in the town tonight, and head to Yunliu City tomorrow."

"Okay!" Yuan Yao beamed with joy when she heard that, she didn't want to meet the three red blood bats from the previous two days.

Li Yuan thought of something again, frowned slightly, looked at Yuan Yao, and said: "The black umbrella is the treasure of the Liu family, and we can't take it out during this time. Otherwise, if we anger the Liu family, we might not be able to leave."

She was very clear about Li Yuan's reminder, and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

.........

Hongyun Town is extremely prosperous, it is simply a small city, and its scale is much larger than Maran City.

Li Yuan and the others walked around several streets and settled in a relatively high-end inn.

Three upper rooms were opened, one for Li Yuan and Li Yunqing, one for Yuan Yao and one for Shi Chen.

The inn is a place where the flow of people meets, and the news is the most circulated. If you want to inquire about something, you can definitely ask the waiter in the inn.

First, he inquired about where the Cloud Leopard was riding, and then Li Yuan asked about the situation of Yunliu City.

Just like what Chi Lingyu said, the current rule of only entering and not leaving Yunliu City has lasted for more than a month.

Moreover, for Yuan Zhe whose origin is unknown, they will also check the storage bag and the Yun ring, which shocked Li Yuan and others.

After entering the room and closing the door, Li Yuan was about to discuss with Li Yunqing about entering the city tomorrow, but turned around, trembling with fright.

"Xiao Yaoyao, your room is next to you."

Yuan Yao chuckled, and said, "I think, I will live with you in the future, and we will take care of each other."

She touched the Yun ring on her finger, and said: "With such a treasure on me, you are not afraid of being discovered by the Liu family."

Sighing helplessly, Li Yuan could only accept it silently.

This reminded him that Yunjie would be inspected when he entered the city, and his plan to enter Yunliu City had to be adjusted.

Mu Lan left a lot of high-grade materials, and collected a large number of monster inner alchemy in Xiaoxing Mountain.

The value of these things is beyond the reach of hundreds of Liu families.

The soul realm is already in the middle of the treasure realm, and the soul imprint he planted on Yunjie, no one in the entire Qinggu Continent should be able to open it.

But if he died, it would be different.

Seeing that Li Yuan was about to speak, Yuan Yao quickly jumped onto the bed and lay down on her back.

"Little aunt, you and Xiao Yaoyao rest, I need to think about what to do next."

"Aren't you going to sleep with us?" Yuan Yao was taken aback and turned around.

"You go to bed first, I'll go out for a while."

After speaking, he opened the door and walked out.

Li Yuan went for a stroll on the street to verify the truth of what the inn boy said.

At this time, although the town was brightly lit, the line of sight was not long, and the thick fog outside the town had invaded the town.

And these fogs have a faint smell of blood.

Li Yuan speculated that this imagination should be related to the three red blood bats in the Luoyun Mountains.

After asking more than a dozen people, they confirmed what Xiaoer said.

However, he also inquired about another terrible news.

Over the years, all foreign Yuan Dan realms would disappear in Yunliu City if they did not have a strong background.

Exactly when it started, everyone doesn't remember very clearly, roughly around the time when the ancestor of the Liu family, Liu Tianyun, retreated.

From this point of view, without a thorough understanding of the situation in Yunliu City, it is absolutely impossible to enter.
