I save spiritual roots for the next life.

In an instant, three kalpas of self-cultivation and death disappeared!

The third-level puppet was split into two, and the third-level monster lay crouching without daring to move.

The monsters that suddenly attacked under the swamp, the black shadows in the middle stage of pill formation in an instant, and the puppets holding double swords all disappeared.

This scene made everyone present suddenly widen their eyes.

At this moment, no matter how stupid they are, they can see that this change is beneficial to them.

Someone obviously saved them!

A group of people looked around in horror.

In the end, everyone's eyes were fixed on Li Jizhou, who was the only one standing proudly in the audience.

"An ancient real person?"

They looked at Li Jizhou in disbelief.

It was completely impossible to connect the incident just now with Li Jizhou.

However, the fact is that except Li Jizhou, no one here has this possibility!
Li Jizhou didn't even look at them, he just stared in the direction where Zhang Ruoyu escaped.

Finally chased after him.

A group of people were left in panic for the rest of their lives.

A moment later, following Zhang Ruoyu's escape trajectory, Li Jizhou's annual ring sensed the fighting ahead.

"Humph, I still underestimate you!" The voice of the leader of Jie Xiu came first.

Li Jizhou slowly approached, and with a sweep of his consciousness, the scene of the fight in front of him came into view.

It has to be said that Zhang Ruoyu exceeded his knowledge.

Although Zhang Ruoyu was still in the middle stage of pill formation at this moment, his mana was as powerful as his opponent's in the late stage of pill formation.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that the other party took the secret medicine to forcefully restore the late stage of elixir formation.

However, the spells Zhang Ruoyu used at this moment were mainly for protection and control.

Towering trees rise from the ground, almost protecting themselves from the wind.

The ferocious power of Jie Xiu was blocked by the giant tree.

At the same time, vines shot out all over the sky, trying to trap the opponent.

However, Jie Xiu was in the late stage of pill formation after all, and at this moment he was even more furious after many defeats.

He then took out a fire-like elixir from his storage bag and swallowed it in one gulp.

Boom~
A vigorous mana burst out again, and it returned to its peak state in the late stage of pill formation.

"Bang bang bang!" In an instant, the fierce offensive made the towering trees around Zhang Ruoyu tremble.

Zhang Ruoyu's mana suddenly exploded to the extreme, but even though he laid a solid foundation in the foundation building stage, and after condensing the true elixir, he improved by leaps and bounds. After the true elixir, his mana was [-]% higher than that of the same level, but he was not promoted to the late stage of elixir formation.

Facing the onslaught of the Tribulation Cultivators who were at their peak in the later stage of the Dan Formation, it was really difficult to resist.

After a while, Zhang Ruoyu's magical aura began to become unstable, the giant trees around him gradually weakened, and the rattan tentacles slowly retreated into the ground.

"Fellow Taoist, please be merciful!" Finally, Zhang Ruoyu couldn't hold it back and shouted.

"Hmph, stop talking nonsense, hand over the secret treasure, and spare your life!" Jie Xiu snorted coldly, but kept holding on.

Zhang Ruoyu's magic power was getting weaker and weaker, and he gritted his teeth and insisted: "I really don't have a secret treasure!"

"It's a joke. Without the secret treasure, you can see through the murderous intention I arranged in advance in the middle stage of pill formation?"

"To be honest, I have laid a solid foundation in the foundation building stage, and I have just accumulated strong mana in the pill forming stage. The same is true for my spiritual consciousness. There is no special treasure!" Zhang Ruoyu explained helplessly.

"I see you won't shed tears until you see the coffin!" Jie Xiu didn't believe it at all, and his attack became even more intense.

"Bang!" Finally, Zhang Ruoyu couldn't resist anymore. The ancient wood in front of him shattered and he flew backwards.

Seeing Zhang Ruoyu injured and falling to the ground, Jie Xiu's eyes flashed with a trace of cruelty. Without missing any opportunity, he flew up to kill Zhang Ruoyu quickly.

Zhang Ruoyu saw the opponent coming, but was helpless and could only sigh deeply.

After struggling for so many years, I finally gave in!
"In the final analysis, I still don't have enough strength!"

Just when he was about to explode his true elixir and die together with Jie Xiu,
suddenly,

"Whoosh~" A black shadow flashed.

"Bang!" The robbery cultivator who was rushing towards him suddenly changed his color and blocked the body with his spiritual weapon, barely able to withstand the fatal blow.

A spark flashed in front of him, and cold sweat ran down his spine.

"Who?" Taking a hundred steps back, Jie Xiu looked forward solemnly.

Li Jizhou's figure slowly walked out, followed by a dark puppet beside him.

"how is this possible?"

As his spiritual consciousness swept over him, Jie Xiu's color suddenly changed.

Li Jizhou's aura in the early stage of pill formation at this moment was inescapable under his spiritual consciousness in the late stage of pill formation.

As for that puppet, he couldn't sense the strength of its aura.

But with just one blow, it was obvious that this puppet was at least a third level advanced, even better than his peak strength.

How could a monk in the early stage of forming a pill possess a third-level advanced or even higher-level puppet?
For a moment, he was not afraid, but excited!

"Fellow Ancient Taoist!" Zhang Ruoyu was in a situation where he was destined to die, but such a change happened, which made him extremely excited.

But the moment he saw Li Jizhou, he was shocked.

This puppet is too powerful.

It shouldn't be something that a monk in the early stage of forming a pill can possess.

Unless this person is a descendant of a big family, or a direct descendant of the core of the super puppet power in Tianji City.

Li Jizhou's expression remained normal, he glanced at Zhang Ruoyu and nodded slightly.

I got the life-extending fruit at Xiaogang Peak and had the opportunity to try to refine the life-extending pill. And when I was on the island, I used its appearance to cultivate for decades. This cause and effect is over today!

"Who is this sacred person?" Jie Xiu concealed his excitement and asked in a deep voice.

However, he was also a little worried about the power behind him.

If the other party's background was surprising, even if there were mountains of gold and silver in front of him, he wouldn't dare to think about it.

Li Jizhou turned to look at him: "A dead person doesn't need to know too much!"

Before the words fell, a loud noise came.

The double-sword puppet had already rushed out of the black water under Jie Xiu's feet, and the two swords struck hard on its mana shield.

"Oh!"

There was a loud noise. Although it did not destroy the magic shield of Jie Xiu's late-stage pill formation, it was almost there.

Jie Xiu's color changed instantly, and when he took a closer look at the double-sword puppet, his expression became even more horrified.

There is another third-level high-level puppet?
A small cultivator in the early stage of forming a pill has two third-level high-level puppets!
Simply defiant.

"Whoosh~" Before he could recover from the shock, he felt a strong suction force appear under his feet, firmly fixing his feet on the ground.

"Huh?" His expression suddenly changed again.

I saw another puppet appearing underground.

And this puppet is still a third-level advanced one.

His scalp went numb all of a sudden.

The next moment, he directly suspected that he was dazzled.

A puppet rushed towards him again, suddenly attacking him.

This puppet is also a third-level advanced puppet.Oh my God!

A small early-stage pill-forming monk actually has four third-level high-level puppets at the same time, and they may even be close to the fourth level!

For a moment, he broke into a cold sweat.

There is no longer any covetousness.

"Whoosh!" Almost instantly, he suddenly burst out with magic power, freed the puppet on the ground from the Earth Imprisonment Technique, turned around and flew away.

But it was too late, a dark shadow appeared blocking his way.

The double-sword puppet behind him also raised his double-swords.

Even the pretty-faced puppet is getting close...

"Stab!" The next moment, Jie Xiu's liver and gallbladder were about to burst, and they were already torn apart, leaving only a spray of blood mist, unable to even self-destruct the true elixir.

"Fellow Ancient Taoist, you are so powerful!" Zhang Ruoyu looked at Li Jizhou in disbelief after surviving the catastrophe.

"The cause and effect is over, Taoist friend Zhang, take care!" Li Jizhou smiled faintly, put away the puppet and flew away without leaving a trace of concern.

Before he could say anything more, Li Jizhou's figure had disappeared from Zhang Ruoyu's field of vision. He couldn't help but hesitated slightly: "Is the cause and effect over?"

Recalling that when Li Jizhou first joined the team, he communicated with him intentionally or unintentionally, and it seemed that he knew something about Jinyang Sect.

Coupled with the words spoken at this moment, his thoughts couldn't help but become active.

His intuition told him that this person must be an old acquaintance.

However, after searching through old acquaintances, I could not find anyone who could compare with him.

Obviously, the opponent must have a super powerful secret skill of disguise, and it must not be as simple as the early stage of pill formation.

It is almost impossible to control four third-level high-level puppets at the same time without the spiritual consciousness of the late stage of pill formation.

And those four third-level high-level puppets are beyond the reach of ordinary people.

"How can there be any connection between me and such a person?"

After thinking about it, Zhang Ruoyu had no idea who it was!
After Li Jizhou left, he flew straight to the third heaven.

Nowadays, Li Jizhou, who is in the middle stage of Golden Elixir, has almost no pressure when flying to the third level.

Naturally, no unsighted Jie Cultivator would dare to disturb this high altitude of flight.

After that, the journey was smooth.

Outside Guzhu City,

"This is it!" A big man in brocade robes stared at the city gate in front of him and said with excitement.

"Third brother, please don't be careless this time, otherwise our right to speak within the clan will be in jeopardy." Another old man in black robe said solemnly.

Hearing this, the big man in brocade robes chuckled: "Brother, you are worrying too much. There is only one Guzhu True Lord here. How dare you go against our Shangguan Immortal Clan?"

The old man in black robe frowned slightly: "Third brother, how long has it been since the incident in Yan country? Humph, I shouldn't have brought you out this time!"

Hearing this, the big man in brocade robes couldn't help but blush: "Brother, it wasn't my carelessness that time, it was the villain Jiang Yuanxiao of the Jiang family who ambushed me in advance. Otherwise, I would have killed those rebel leaders that time!"

"Hmph! How could that little girl in green clothes be waiting for you to kill her? You can tell with your toes that there must be an ambush, and you still dare to say that you weren't careless?" Black Robe snorted coldly.

In the past few years, during the chaos in the Eastern Wasteland and the Southern Territory, the major forces in the Central Territory secretly participated in the war and attacked and killed each other's Nascent Soul.

The Shangguan family sent Shangguan Dang, a branch of the Shangguan family, to lead two new Yuanyings in the clan to carry out a beheading operation. As a result, the leader of the coalition forces, Qingshan Zhenjun, killed one of the new Yuanyings.

In addition, Shangguan Dang was also injured in a sneak attack by a stranger in the middle stage of Yuanying.

This incident made the clan members have a lot of opinions about their lineage, and they even almost kicked out the elders of this lineage from the Presbyterian Council.

This time, after the Cangming Dynasty of Zhongzhou negotiated with the Shangguan family, their elders once again took over the task in order to atone for their sins.

Therefore, they did not dare to be careless this time and directly sent two mid-stage Yuanying overhauls to Lone Bamboo City.

"Brother, don't worry, I won't be careless this time. Besides, as long as you are here, I will definitely listen to your orders!" The Jin-robed Nascent Soul Middle Stage True Lord smiled coquettishly, and treated the Black-robed True Lord in a somewhat flattering manner. road.

The black robe glared at him, and then looked at Lone Bamboo City not far away with some solemnity: "Hey, this time the elders of the clan are competing for this job, I don't know whether it is good or bad."

"Brother, what are you worried about? They are just a few Dan-forming juniors. Even if Lord Guzhu takes action, what do you and I have to fear?" Shangguan Dang said with a strange expression.

Black-robed Nascent Soul Shangguan Xiu frowned and said angrily: "You know nothing! If it was so simple, why would the Cangming Dynasty let us take action?

Isn't it just a favor for nothing?
The Cangming Dynasty is now in great prestige, how can their favor be obtained so easily?

What's more, I heard a news that this time it was the Cangming Dynasty who took the initiative to come to the door and promised that we would take action! "

"Indeed! Then according to what brother means, why is this happening in the Cangming Dynasty?" Shangguan Dang frowned.

Shangguan Xiu shook his head slightly: "If I could figure it out, I wouldn't be so worried."

"This time the Cangming Dynasty only asked us to take two things away from An Liuli. I'm afraid the biggest change lies in those two things!"

After finishing speaking, Shangguan Xiu looked at a jade talisman in his hand.

This talisman was given to him personally by the ancestor of the Shangguan family, and he said that it could only be opened after An Liuli was captured.

Even he himself has never opened it.

And keep it secret.

Looking at the jade talisman in his hand, Shangguan Xiu felt more and more that this matter would not be so simple.

"Why doesn't the Cangming Dynasty take it for itself?"

"If it's just a mere pill-forming monk as it says, why do you need to send us two mid-stage Nascent Souls here?"

I pondered for a moment, but found nothing.

"That's it, Third Brother, remember to watch my eyes before you act!" Shangguan Xiu finally sighed.

"Brother, don't worry, I will listen to you!" Shangguan Dang agreed.

After waiting for another three days, two monks in the late stage of pill formation finally arrived.

After checking the code, it was confirmed that he was the envoy sent by the Cangming Dynasty.

Then the four of them entered Lone Bamboo City.
-
"Fellow Daoist, stop!"

Three months later, Li Jizhou returned to Yan State.

As soon as he entered, a group of patrolling monks stopped him.

On a [-]-foot flying boat, dozens of monks formed a battle formation.

"Fellow Taoist, please Haihan. Now that the war between good and evil in the Eastern Barren Southern Territory is going on, the situation is critical. We, the rebel army's rear area, have to be extremely cautious. Dare I ask, who is my friend? What's the purpose of coming to Yan country?" The leader is in the late stage of forming pills. , a high-grade spiritual weapon, the red flame halberd, was raging in flames.

Li Jizhou glanced at the other party. Except for the leader who was holding a high-grade spiritual weapon in the late stage of forming the pill, the others also formed a battle formation.

Ordinary elixir formation will not bring any benefits in the later stage.

This shows how much the rebels attach great importance to this rear area. After all, their homes may be ransacked, so they must be cautious.

But because it needs to absorb fresh blood, it cannot completely block the returning monks.

"In ancient times, a certain level of casual cultivator once fled to the swamp to protect himself from the disaster of the devil. Now he was lucky enough to form an elixir, and he heard that the Nascent Soul of the Southern Region had not appeared, so he came back, hoping to practice more with concentration, so that he could be strong and do his best after his death. Serve!" Li Jizhou said sternly.

"You still need fellow Taoists to swear the inner demon oath. After all, we can't verify the authenticity of too many people!" the patrol captain further said.

Li Jizhou frowned slightly, but that was true. If it weren't for the inner demon's oath, how could they verify the identities of the many monks who returned to the Yan Kingdom?

Thinking of this, Li Jizhou didn't care. Anyway, the inner demon was also the inner demon of Gu Zhenren and had nothing to do with him, Li Jizhou.

Immediately made a vow to the inner demons.

Seeing this, the patrol team nodded slightly.

Although looking at Li Jizhou's early stage cultivation, his determination to eliminate demons is a great good deed.

With encouragement, he registered the information and gave Li Jizhou an identity jade charm.

This jade talisman only confirms that it has passed the verification of the inner demon's oath. In the area controlled by the Yan Kingdom's rebels, non-rebels can pass freely through important areas.

After entering the Eastern Wasteland, Li Jizhou did not go to the rebel headquarters, but turned around and headed towards the Bauhinia Mountains. (End of chapter)
