"Master, I made a breakthrough!"
After the Five Elements were released from the Qiankun Qi Bag by Lu Qing, they immediately reported the good news to him.
However, its cultivation level had made a significant breakthrough after digesting several Jindan-level spirit beasts and demon beasts.
Now he has entered the third level of the Golden Elixir.
"Not bad, not bad. This time of retreat and sleep has yielded some results." Lu Qing nodded in approval.
"Xiao Li, I've made a breakthrough! Am I more powerful than you now?"
Wu Xing was so happy to receive Lu Qing's praise that he went to Xiao Li to show off.
"roll!"
Xiao Li, who was happily choosing a magic weapon that suited him, was interrupted. He immediately pricked up his ears and glared at the stupid snake.
And there was a breath of air emanating from his body.
Suddenly, the Five Elements were shocked and felt the aura on Xiao Li, which was extremely terrifying, as if he was its natural enemy, which made it shudder.
Seeing that Wuxing's body was stiff and even his tail was standing straight, Xiao Li restrained his breath and continued to select the magic weapon.
It was only then that Wuxing noticed the large number of magical weapons emitting powerful auras in front of Xiao Li, and he was immediately even more stunned.
It was a little confused. How come when it woke up, Xiao Li's strength seemed to be much stronger than before?
I have clearly made a breakthrough, but compared to it, the gap seems to be even greater than before I fell asleep?
Where do so many powerful magic weapons come from?
What happened during the time it was sleeping?
Seeing Wu Xing being frightened by Xiao Li, Lu Qing was speechless.
He called Wuxing over and briefly told him about recent events, which made Wuxing's eyes widen.
It never imagined that during the time when it was sleeping in the Qiankun Yiqi Bag, the experiences of its master and Xiaoli outside would be so thrilling.
When Wu Xing looked dazed, Lu Qing took out another jade bottle.
"In this jade bottle, there are some bloodlines of exotic animals that we collected in the secret realm. During this period of time, try to refine them and see how much you can absorb."
"Blood of an alien beast? Master, do I have a share of it?"
Wuxing grabbed the jade bottle with his claws, was stunned for a moment, then became excited.
Just now, when it heard Lu Qing talking about the things in the secret realm, especially the fact that refining the blood of the exotic beasts in it could greatly strengthen the physical body, it was already extremely envious.
Now hearing that the jade bottle contains the blood of some miraculous exotic beast, how can I not be excited?
"Everyone has a share. Xiao Li and I have collected quite a lot. You can take them and refine them. By the way, Xiao Li has also obtained a very powerful technique. Whether you can learn from it depends on your ability."
It's not just the five elements. Lu Qing has collected a lot of witch blood in the secret realm. He has also prepared the ones for his master and Xiaoyan.
When Wu Xing heard Lu Qing's words, his eyes immediately lit up.
He then ran to Xiao Li and busied himself showing his courtesy to her.
The result is predictable. The impatient Xiao Li slapped it away with one claw, and it stuck to the stone wall of the cave.
However, Wuxing didn't care and continued to show his courtesy.
Seeing this, Lu Qing smiled and ignored the fight between the two little guys. After setting up a formation to block out the sound, he sat down cross-legged and prepared to start practicing.
Before, in the secret realm, he had wanted to improve his cultivation to the ninth level of the Golden Core in one breath.
However, due to the closure of the secret realm and the shortage of spirit stones, he had to leave early.
This time, both his spirit stones and martial arts skills were greatly supplemented.
In addition, he had just killed many powerful Yuanshen realm masters and Jindan realm warriors, which angered countless sects and aristocratic families.
There must be many powerful forces outside now, all wanting to find him and kill him as soon as possible.
Therefore, in the short term, it may not be advisable to continue to show up.
Although Lu Qing is now able to kill people at the initial stage of the Yuanshen, he is not complacent with his strength.
The Tianyuan world is extremely vast and deep, and no one knows how many old monsters are hidden in the dark.
My strength is far from enough compared to those truly powerful people who have gone through several levels of spiritual tribulations.
Now that the situation is tense, I might as well take this opportunity to go into seclusion for a long time and elevate my cultivation realm to a whole new level.
Only then will we be able to have more power to protect ourselves.
In this way, Lu Qing officially began a long period of seclusion in the cave.
And during the time when he was dormant and practicing in seclusion, news about the battle at Tianshu Mountain gradually spread from the outside world, quickly causing a stir and shocking countless people.
After all, in a great war, when several people at the Yuanshen realm died, this kind of thing, no matter when it happened, could be considered a shocking event.
Normally, even if just one powerful soul died, it would be considered a big deal and would cause a sensation in several states.
This time, so many powerful spiritual beings died at once, not to mention.
In the past, only when the demons invaded and a war broke out would so many powerful souls die.
But the Tianshu Divine Mountain is located behind the human territory and does not border the demon territory at all. Why would such a war break out?
For a time, people all over the world paid attention to this breaking news.
As more and more details of this battle were revealed, many people had different reactions.
"What? The one who killed so many Yuanshen realm masters was a Jindan realm master who just came out of the secret realm?"
"Impossible! How can a mere Jindan realm be a match for a powerful Yuanshen, let alone kill him? There is no such absurd thing in the world. There must be a limit to nonsense!"
"He is just a small Jindan realm, and a powerful Yuanshen can kill him with just a breath. What are you talking about killing Yuanshen in reverse? Who spread this fake news?"
When the news spread that the person who killed so many powerful souls was a Jindan realm cultivator who had just come out of the secret realm of Tianshu Divine Mountain, the reaction of most people was disbelief.
After all, this is really too absurd. A mere Jindan realm cultivator killed the souls, and even killed several powerful souls in a row, and finally left calmly.
This kind of thing sounds so fake. Do you really think that no one understands cultivation?
However, just when countless monks were sneering at the news and even thought that it was just fake news created by someone.
As another piece of news came out, everyone was shocked again.
The Holy Alliance issued a hunting order, saying that an evil demon had sneaked into the human territory with secret methods, entered the secret realm of Tianshu Mountain, and seized a great opportunity.
Then, when the secret realm was closed, he took advantage of the unpreparedness of the powerful Yuanshen people and killed many of them with evil methods, and finally escaped.
Now, the evil demon may still be lurking in the human territory. The righteous people in the world should be careful. Once its trace is found, it should be reported to the Holy Alliance immediately and killed.
If you can provide effective information, or kill the evil demon, you will receive a generous reward from the Holy Alliance and many sects.
Along with the wanted order, there was also a rubbing of Lu Qing's face and Xiao Li's changed appearance.
As soon as this hunting order was issued, everyone was convinced that a great battle had indeed taken place at Tianshu Mountain.
But it was not like the rumors, that there was some absurd thing like a Jindan realm cultivator killing the Yuanshen. Instead, there were powerful demon cultivators above the level of Demon General who sneaked in and killed many powerful Yuanshen with evil methods.
As a result, the monks' mentality changed again.
Those who are ambitious and want to slay demons or collect the generous rewards offered by the Holy Alliance will immediately rush to Tianshu Continent.
There were also those who were less courageous. Knowing that such a terrifying evil demon had lurked in the human territory, they immediately became frightened and began to retreat, planning not to go out for a period of time, so as to avoid encountering the evil demon and dying.
What's more, the cultivators who were already in Tianshu Continent chose to flee directly and stay away from this dangerous place.
Among them, some cultivators were extremely shocked when they saw the rubbings of Lu Qing and Xiao Li sent out by the Holy Alliance.
"Grandpa, isn't the person shown here the elder brother Chen who saved us?"
In a certain city, a child looked at Tuo Ying on the city wall and asked in a low voice.
"That's Brother Chen. The one he's holding above is Xiao Li, right?" another child said affirmatively.
"Stop talking nonsense!"
The old man they were questioning suddenly changed his expression when he heard the conversation between the two children.
He first waved his hand to cast a ban, sealing the two men's mouths to prevent their words from being heard by others, and then hurried away with his two grandsons.
After returning to his cave, he removed the restrictions on his two grandsons.
"Grandpa, why don't you let us talk? Isn't Brother Chen a good man? Why does the notice say that he is an evil demon?"
After the restriction was lifted, one of the children asked in confusion.
"You two, don't mention anything about your brother Chen again, otherwise I will lock you both in a quiet room and you won't be allowed to come out until you have established your foundation!" the old man shouted sternly.
Hearing such a terrible punishment, the two children turned pale.
They have only made some progress in Qi refining. If they want to cultivate to the foundation-building stage, they will have to remain in seclusion for many years.
Immediately, neither of them dared to ask any more questions.
"Alright, all of you go practice. Remember, don't mention this again!"
After scaring his two grandsons and sending them off to practice, the old man began to think about something with a changing expression.
He had not expected that the young man who had traveled with them for a long time and finally saved them in the Windy Plains would cause such a shocking incident in Tianshu Continent.
"He killed many powerful Yuanshen masters by himself. Has his strength reached this level?"
The old man couldn't help but sigh.
The scene in his mind came to mind when Lu Qing was alone in the Windy Plain, using his sword to stop the wind beast in the Yuanshen realm and cover their retreat.
Unexpectedly, after just a short while, he was already able to kill those at the Yuanshen realm.
The speed at which this strength was growing was truly too terrifying.
I'm afraid it's really as what is said in the wanted order, he got a great opportunity in the secret realm of Tianshu Mountain.
However, the old man did not believe the words in the notice that Lu Qing was a demon.
What kind of evil demon would risk his life to protect these strangers?
I think this must be another deliberate smear campaign by those big forces in order to save their own face.
The old man, who was very familiar with the nature of certain upper-class forces, looked at them with disdain.
As for what was said in the wanted order, that as long as he provided relevant clues, he would receive a generous reward, he was not tempted at all.
Although he is not very capable, he is unwilling to betray his benefactor in order to obtain resources for cultivation.
However, many people who went to the Windy Plains that day had seen that person.
There will inevitably be someone who cannot resist the temptation and goes forward to provide clues.
"I just hope this won't affect that person."
The old man thought with some worry on his face.
"Could this Chen Qing be Fellow Daoist Lu Qing?"
Nangong Yuanwu, one of the thirty-six great clans of the Tianyuan World, looked gloomy and breath weak as he looked at the information brought by his clansmen and muttered to himself.
He thought of the young man who had saved him and Hong Yun and who had followed him to the upper world.
Although Tuoying's appearance in the intelligence was quite different from that of the mysterious young man, he still vaguely felt a sense of familiarity.
What's more, this person also brought a pet that looked like a raccoon cat.
Although the appearance of the spirit pet has also changed, there shouldn't be such a coincidence in the world.
Therefore, Nangong Yuanwu was 70% to 80% sure that the person on the wanted order issued by the Holy Alliance was most likely Fellow Daoist Lu Qing.
"His body is extremely strong and his boxing skills are unparalleled. Isn't this the fighting style of Fellow Daoist Lu Qing? I never thought that not long after entering the upper realm, his strength has improved to such an extent that even those at the initial stage of the Yuanshen are no match for him."
After discussing Taoism with Lu Qing, Nangong Yuanwu knew that this young man was unfathomable.
After entering the upper realm, it will definitely stir up the situation and create huge waves in the future.
But he didn't expect that this day would come so soon.
However, in just a few short years, the Jindan-level cultivator was able to kill Yuanshen-initial-level powerful beings at will.
With such strength, even if he was still at the peak of his powers, he would be no match for him.
"However, Gongshu Zheng is dead. What a good thing he died! The most amazing genius of the younger generation is dead. The Gongshu family must be heartbroken now!"
Nangong Yuanwu showed a look of satisfaction on his face.
Not long after he returned to the upper realm, he was ambushed by an assassin from the Nether Palace and almost died.
Until now, he is still extremely weak, and he doesn't know if he will have a chance to recover in the future. How can he not feel hatred in his heart?
He knew that it was Gongshu's people who were behind this, but as he was seriously injured, he had no way to take revenge.
Now that he knew that Gongshu Zheng, the most amazing young Yuanshen realm master of Gongshu's generation, had died in Tianshu Sacred Mountain, the joy in his heart almost alleviated the injuries on his body.
"It's a pity that Hongyun is not here, so I can't share this news with her."
Nangong Yuanwu said with some regret.
Mo Hongyun was sent to another big world by him. After so long, she has never come back. Even Nangong Yuanwu can't contact her anymore.
I don’t know when we can meet again.
