Li Gu's demonic soul flickered rapidly as it thought quickly about ways to save itself. It felt that it could still be rescued.
"I have a seriously injured uncle who has been summoned by the Order more times than I have. There may be secrets in his soul that you want to know."
"It was severely damaged by humans a few years ago, and now it is hiding in a secret place in the water. Only one tenth of its strength remains."
Realizing that Shen Lian was interested in her memories, Li Gu had no choice but to use her uncle's, after all, her biological father had already used them.
"The demon clan is indeed kind to its fathers and filial to its sons."
Shen Lian sneered and without wasting any time, a ball of five-colored fire ignited and enveloped the demon soul.
"Sizzle!"
In the flames, balls of yin and yang light rolled up and pierced through the demon soul repeatedly like sharp swords, and large pieces of memory fragments flowed out from the demon soul.
Even if Shen Lian wanted to get the uncle of this demon, he could just sort out the information in his soul bit by bit.
In a moment, Li Gu's demonic soul was cut into tens of thousands of pieces. Half of the shattered soul power was burning with Yin Fire, and the other half was beating with Yang Fire, with clusters of colorful smoke swaying.
"Is this the strength one should have in the early stage of Void Refining?"
From the shattered demon soul, Li Gu's terrified thoughts spread out, and he wailed in pain.
"I really have an uncle, he is a post-refined..."
Shen Lian activated the power of rules and fiercely burned the broken demon soul three times, destroying the soul smoke that was produced into nothingness.
"I've killed your ancestor, and you're still missing an uncle?"
If it were any other race, Shen Lian might have been recruited as a dog.
But as for the Sky Demon Clan, it's better not to have this dog. Although Heiya is shameless, at least he has a more positive bottom line. The Sky Demon Clan is a race without any bottom line.
This clan was too filial, and he was afraid.
"call!"
With a slight sigh of relief, Shen Lian began to investigate the magic storage treasures of this demon cultivator.
"How can I be so poor? How come I only have over 2,000 top-grade spirit stones? They are not even enough for me to cultivate. How come I still have a bunch of mid- and low-grade spirit stones?"
"As expected of a Heavenly Demon, he even robs a Golden Core cultivator."
Inside the cave, Shen Lianqi kicked the demon cultivator's body several times.
There are a lot of things, but most of them are garbage.
The most useful things are just a few pieces of level six ore.
But for Shen Lian, what he needs now is the best quality spirit stones; high quality spirit stones are useless.
It cannot be used as a resource for Taoist practice, and the value of the matchmaker's money of 30 million high-quality spirit stones has been greatly reduced. This is the cleanest and most hard-earned money he has ever earned.
[Shen Lian: The Initial Stage of Refining Void (Five Qis Converging to the Origin)]
[Physical Training: Sixth Stage Early Stage (Xuan Yang Body)]
[Taoism Cultivation: The Initial Stage of Refining the Spirit and Returning to the Void (Tai Shang Thirteen Sutras)]
After ascending to the fairyland for more than two hundred years, Shen Lian finally advanced the three major methods simultaneously and cultivated them to the sixth level. His combat power is comparable to that of the late stage of refining emptiness.
This was also demonstrated in the little demon. It was easy for him to crush a veteran demon in the early stage of the refining void, as easy as chopping melons and vegetables.
If Shen Lian had not encountered this little demon named Li Gu, all this knowledge would be enough to make him dance with joy in the cave.
But the little demon's memory forced him to face even more towering and cruel chasms on his path of cultivation.
With so many thoughts in his mind and after taking stock of his current actual situation, Shen Lian couldn't help but sigh.
"Why don't you join a large sect? It's too difficult to complete the preparation for the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulations on your own."
Over the past two hundred years, he had spent more than twenty-one million spiritual enlightenment points in one go to elevate his Taoist practice to the realm of refining the spirit and returning to the void. The top-grade spirit stones hidden in You Shifang were almost used up.
The spiritual energy contained in the best spirit stones is not fixed. Some have more and some have less. On average, one spirit stone can extract more than twenty spiritual energies.
When cultivating to the realm of Refining the Spirit and Returning to the Void, each small realm is almost double the sum of all the previous realms. It can be said that in order to cultivate to the perfection of the realm of Refining the Spirit and Returning to the Void, not to mention spirit stones, at least 120 to 50 million divine enlightenment points are needed.
Fortunately, there are nearly 20 million divine enlightenment points remaining. He has planned to give himself 20,000 years to survive the nine-nine heavenly tribulations, which is still ample time.
As for the top-grade spirit stones, it is not a big problem. After all, he is still the ancestor of three top-level virtual refining forces.
Let the younger generation suffer a little, and take care of the ancestors first. Twenty thousand years will pass quickly.
If the three families share the burden equally, there would be almost no pressure on the younger generations to pay in installments over 20,000 years.
In fact, many younger generations may have breached the contract thousands of years ago.
The old ancestor neither charges interest nor asks for penalty. It is hard to find such an old ancestor even with a lantern.
In addition to Taoist cultivation, one only needs to practice the Dharma step by step, and elevate the two rules of the Five Elements and Yin and Yang to the third level.
The third rule of soul has also been introduced. Shen Lian's spiritual power has always been much stronger than those of his peers. The power of the soul can enhance external perception and is a necessary rule of investigation.
In addition, after witnessing the old Taoist's heavenly tribulation, he also wanted to comprehend the rules of space.
There is no other reason, the rules of space are more arbitrary in the fairy world, and it is a powerful tool for escaping and fighting.
However, we still need to collect the subsequent practice methods related to the Five Qis Converging to the Origin Gong.
As for physical cultivation, I also need to change a method. I don't know if it's because of my current practice method, but I haven't felt the appearance of the physical cultivation tribulation.
Moreover, the grade of the "Xuan Yang Body" on his body is too low, not even at the "spiritual" level. You must know that physical cultivators can also comprehend the rules, and the rules of physical cultivators are also very direct, which is the rule of power.
Since you have decided to go through the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulations, you naturally have to treat the subsequent cultivation with high standards.
To upgrade one's natal spiritual plant, one must also sacrifice and refine another natal spiritual talisman. As for the method of making natal spiritual pills, that is also available in the fairy world.
Shen Lian picked up relevant rumors from the information sent back by several ancestors, that there were cultivators in the fairy world who refined elixirs into their natal treasures.
However, because of the previous experience of the Nine Aperture Foundation Building Pill, he felt that it would be better to put the Innate Spirit Pill on the back burner.
Although this pill has disappeared for thousands of years, Shen Lian always feels that it must still be there.
The worst thing is that he made this broken thing with his own hands.
What a sin.
After calming down, Shen Lian spoke.
"Physical cultivation, come on, come on!"
In an instant, the ancestors of Wangshu Valley and Huang family started digging out things from the Sutra Repository again.
Black Rock Golden Eyes
"The Magic Power of Supporting the Sky"
The Immortal Body of the Sun
…
"Liujia Minggong"
Wangshu Valley and the Huang family have many physical cultivation methods, three of which have reached the 'spiritual' level, but Shen Lian is still a little dissatisfied.
He practiced physical training for only one purpose: to withstand beatings.
Being able to withstand beatings represents strong vitality and a long lifeline.
The life of physical cultivators in the fairy world is already difficult. Unlike Taoist cultivators who have dissipated all their magic power, he has no way to dissipate his physical power. It is most likely that four heavenly tribulations will be superimposed on each other.
It's scary to think about it.
Of these spiritual level physical training techniques, the best one, the Tianyang Immortal Body, can only be practiced to the late sixth level. If you practice it now, it won't be long before you have to think of a new method, so it's better to wait and see if you can get a better one.
"It's barely ok for the three forces to support me to cultivate to the Great Perfection of Refining Void, but it's too far to take into account the three paths of cultivation at the same time. Especially the secret treasure for overcoming the heavenly tribulation of the Hedao, only a few of them know about it."
"call!"
Inside the cave, Shen Lian stood up depressedly and stretched his muscles.
If he had enough resources, he wouldn't mind staying in seclusion forever.
Unfortunately, they are too poor. The 30 million matchmaker money brought from Yunxiao Realm is enough to buy ordinary sixth-grade spiritual objects, but the best sixth-grade spiritual objects all require top-grade spirit stones.
Subsequent cultivation of Taoism, purchasing of high-level physical cultivation techniques, and even the subsequent crossing of the nine-nine heavenly tribulations all require a large amount of spirit stones as a support.
According to the relevant memories dug out from the memories of Patriarch Wangshu, Huang Youdao, and You Shifang, after the three ancestors cultivated to the perfect state of refining emptiness, they prepared more than one million top-grade spirit stones as resources to deal with the Sanjiu Heavenly Tribulation.
For example, the Hedao cultivator in Wangshu Valley, before he passed the 39th Heavenly Tribulation, he purchased a small piece of seventh-grade lower-grade Wood Source Dao Gold, the size of a baby's fist, which was worth more than 300,000 top-grade spirit stones.
The raw ore of Wood Source Gold is not expensive, with one piece costing no more than 30,000 top-grade spirit stones. However, if one wants to preserve the rules within the ore completely, a Hedao cultivator is needed to refine it.
As for the Hedao cultivators, they don't want the best quality spirit stones; what they want are spirit crystals.
The exchange rate for top-grade spirit stones and spirit crystals is one hundred to one, but in the Huai River area, as long as there are sporadic spirit crystals, they will be exchanged by cultivators at a price three, five or even more times the exchange price.
It's so exaggerated that as long as you have spirit crystals, you can give us the price, or give us both the spirit crystals and your life.
Three hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones are equivalent to three thousand low-grade spirit crystals, and the normal price of Muyuan Daojin is only about eight hundred low-grade spirit crystals.
But for the ancestors of Wangshu's generation, this was still a bargain, because she used spirit stones to buy Wood Source Dao Gold. What was a few times the black heart in front of the Hedao Heavenly Tribulation? 300,000 Wood Source Dao Gold, 600,000 of the Tribulation Secret Treasure, a branch of the Chenming Yuehua tree with wood attributes, three Zhongji Shengyuan Pills at 100,000 each, and if you count the Qingmu Buyun Pill that helps to comprehend the rules of wood, the top-grade spirit stones consumed for the Hedao Heavenly Tribulation are close to 1.5 million.
The consumption of the other two ancestors is about the same.
In general, the total price of these spiritual objects related to transcending tribulation is only about 700,000 or 800,000 top-grade spirit stones, but due to the lack of resources, the value has doubled.
For the ancestors, the heavenly tribulation of Hedao cannot be measured by the price. After going through it, they will get back dozens or hundreds of times more resources.
If they can’t make it across, the tribe will fall back into poverty and may not recover for hundreds of thousands of years.
The cost of a thirty-nine-day tribulation is so terrifying, then the cost of a ninety-nine-day tribulation...
“Huff…”
Shen Lian took a long breath and calmed himself down.
A 39th Heaven Tribulation consumes more than a million. If he wants to survive a 99th Heaven Tribulation, he has to prepare for ten times the consumption? "Ten times?"
With a murmur, ten times doesn't seem stable enough.
One hundred times...
Suddenly, Shen Lian seemed to see a river made of top-grade spirit stones in the sky, swaying towards him.
He had just ascended to the fairyland, and he was already carrying the burden of a small goal. Even if he sold the three major forces together, he would not be able to sell so many spirit stones.
Huh... Although the goal is ambitious, one still has to eat one bite at a time. It is important to find a method for physical cultivation first, so Shen Lian is ready to come out of seclusion.
It has been more than two hundred years since he came to the fairyland. Although the three paths of cultivation are not perfect yet, they have given him some self-protection power and allowed him to leave the Huai River.
Huaishui must leave. The Yunxiao Realm is wide open, which is more powerful in the Immortal Spirit Realm than the explosion of an eighth-level Hedao spiritual treasure.
From ancient times to the present, cultivators in the Small Thousand Worlds have been ascending one after another, but the Yunxiao Realm has integrated the entire world into the immortal spirit, which has a greater impact than Pei Tianlan becoming the first cultivator in the Yunxiao Realm.
How will the Yunxiao Realm survive in the Small Thousand Worlds? Will the other Small Thousand Worlds have any ideas about this? Will the old antiques from other forces be interested?
Shen Lian was not making malicious speculations, he was just making a normal judgment. Perhaps some unknown cultivator had already cast his eyes on him.
Even though the Yunxiao Realm had done a very clean job, the many things that the Butian Cult had done before might have been leaked out by now.
Whether the guess is correct or not, there is no harm in staying away from the Huai River for the time being.
Moving around is good for your physical and mental safety.
…
“It’s really big.”
On a treasure ship on the Huaiyang River, Shen Lian stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the broad river, and sighed from the bottom of his heart once again.
There are many ethnic groups in the Huai River area, including large and small races.
Taihao Immortal Alliance and Jinghe Chamber of Commerce are the giant forces in this vast land, but the behemoth Jinghe Chamber of Commerce appears to be very kind. It does not have the power of a sect and is accustomed to welcoming and seeing off people.
The Taihao Immortal Alliance is different. The five immortal sects are entrenched on five adjacent tributaries of the Huai River, and their prestige is enormous.
Every sect has a sixth-grade top-quality spiritual tree, forming a small spiritual tree cave paradise.
In addition to these two major forces, there are thirty-seven larger tributaries in the Huai River, each of which is occupied by a small-scale refining-level force.
The smaller tributaries are where the forces at the God Transformation and Nascent Soul levels live.
The fairy world is vast, but the conflicts among cultivators are far more intense than those in the Yunxiao world. Every day, in order to compete for resources, countless creatures enter the cycle of reincarnation and start a new account.
Generally speaking, in the area of Huaishui, those who are in the middle stage of refining emptiness are already considered strong, and they occupy the larger tributaries of the Huaihe River and the territory with abundant spiritual energy.
There are not many people who have reached the late stage or perfection of the Refining Void Realm. Unless there is some grand event or they are specifically looking for it, it is difficult for ordinary cultivators to encounter it.
As for other areas within several galaxies near the Huai River, their overall strength is similar to that of the Huai River, and the strongest one is the one that has reached the Great Perfection of Refining Void.
To be precise, the Huai River and the nearby Cangyuan, the farther Yuehua and Juyouxing, all belong to the same layer and are roughly on the same horizontal plane.
The entire fairy world is below the land of chaos and immortal traces, and there are nine heavens and nine levels.
From top to bottom, there are the upper, middle and lower three levels of Cangtian, the upper, middle and lower three levels of Haotian, and the upper, middle and lower three levels of Juntian.
The plane where the Huai River is located is the Upper Juntian, and there are two more heavens below it, namely the Middle Juntian and the Lower Juntian.
Zhongjuntian is generally inferior to Shangjuntian. People in the late or even middle stages of Lianxu can dominate. Xiajuntian is slightly inferior to Zhongjuntian, and people in the middle stages of Lianxu are rare.
Some powerful beings born from the powerful small thousand worlds are sometimes stronger than the overall strength of certain areas in Xia Juntian.
Between Juntian and Haotian is a hazy sea of stars. The sea of stars is extremely vast and towering, and it is not easy to pass through.
This is because when the fairy world was opened up, the turbid air between heaven and earth sank and the clear air rose, and over time, the more turbid air accumulated the lower you went.
Among the three levels of Juntian, only the upper Juntian level can give birth to a cultivator at the Hedao realm. There is no possibility at all in the middle and lower Juntian levels.
The existence of turbid air limits spiritual inspiration and even limits the manifestation of rules, blocking the cultivator's path of practice from the root.
Like the cultivators in the Small Thousand Worlds, the cultivators in the Lower Heavens also want to climb to higher places step by step and breathe fresh air.
Whenever a cultivator says, "I like to breathe in foul air and exhaust gas," you can bet that this person is definitely a mean person.
The vast sky and the flowing Huai River that Shen Lian saw before he ascended to heaven actually only covered the sea of stars at the junction of Juntian and Haotian.
Interestingly, it is said that the large star sea barrier at the junction of the three days of Cangtian, Haotian and Juntian, as well as the small star sea barriers within the upper, middle and lower levels of each day were not formed naturally.
Before saying this, Shen Lian first stated that he always maintained the most sincere respect for the predecessors in the fairy world who were great and unparalleled in their words and deeds.
All this information he heard was from gossip and was absolutely nonsense.
It is a general trend that the turbid air in the fairy world is descending and the clear air is rising, but from time to time the order of heaven and earth will always be uncomfortable for a few days.
If the weather is not comfortable, it will cause a backwash tide of spiritual energy, which will roll up the turbid air at the bottom, and heaven and earth will once again enter a scene where clear and turbid air merge.
In order to protect the environment of the fairy world, the predecessors divided it into three heavens and nine realms, and used a little bit of means to form the current star sea barrier.
Since the appearance of the starry sea isolation zone between the three major heavens, the sky of the fairy world has become blue again, and the recoil of turbid air will only churn in Juntian, and at most cross the starry sea into the Haotian territory.
Sacrificing the lowest Juntian realm to maintain the integrity of the pure energy of the entire fairy world, the predecessors have done immeasurable merit.
As for the appearance of the nine levels of the three heavens of Cangtian, Haotian and Juntian, which caused difficulties in the cultivation of the monks in the lower Juntian, these are all trivial matters.
Younger generations should know how to be content. Only when the elders sleep peacefully can the younger generations have peace, right? Do you want the elders to wake up every few days and walk around? What's there to be uncomfortable about? Overcome it. Thousands of years will pass in the blink of an eye. Try your best to reincarnate and enter the next level of heaven.
Besides, the Star Sea Boundary Wall is just a little difficult to cross, not impossible.
It has been like this for so many years, what's the problem? Before you complain, ask yourself if you have worked hard in your practice?
…
"Senior Wanan."
Shen Lian on the treasure ship was reciting silently in his heart. He always kept his predecessors in his heart.
After taking a look along the Huaiyang River, he was relieved to see that the actual scene in the city along the way was the same as the news he had heard.
He was also afraid that there would be too many strong ones, and he would fall to the lower levels as soon as he ascended.
With his current strength, it is not a problem for him to cross to the Upper Juntian Realm. He cannot stay in the Huai River area. He has to go to the Huang family in the nearby Cangyuan area first to collect several spiritual objects and top-grade spiritual stones in the Huang family treasury.
Cangyuan is only one galaxy away from the Huai River. It would only take more than ten years to travel there on a treasure ship that crosses the void. The farthest star, Juyou, is only four galaxies away, which is enough for the three families to make a circle within a hundred years.
This batch of resources is enough for me to continue practicing for a while, and I can also plan to earn spirit stones.
In addition, Shen Lian has conveyed orders to the clan members and disciples of the two forces through Huang Youdao and Wangshu to inquire about the news of body cultivation and the Five Qis Converging to the Origin Gong.
More than half a year later.
In the middle reaches of the Huai River, a giant turtle is standing across the surging water. On the back of the giant turtle is a huge city with a radius of a thousand miles, shrouded in a colorful spiritual forbidden area.
The mountain turtle's body was covered with numerous scars, and its head was immersed in the Huai River, drinking like a cow.
The Xuling Mountain Turtle is a common spiritual beast that can be found crossing the land of nothingness in Juntian.
This beast has a gentle temperament and is able to eat and grow, making the most of every bite of food it eats. At the fourth level, it can grow to a size of a thousand miles. The downside is that it is a really good eater.
The land of nothingness outside the region is full of dangers. The first time Shen Lian crossed the void, he naturally chose to take a safe transportation turtle, which could also allow him to observe the scenery in the vast void.
After paying the spirit stones, Shen Lian boarded the giant turtle and chose a medium-sized guest room to stay in.
The Xuling Mountain turtle drank on the Huai River for three days and three nights. The sound of water in its stomach beneath its shell was as loud as thunder.
The one riding the mountain turtle was a middle-aged cultivator in the middle stage of the Refining Void Realm with pointed green ears. He took out the spiritual rice and spiritual beast meat from the storage cave and poured them into the mountain turtle's mouth like a long river.
The Lingxu Mountain Turtle, having eaten and drunk its fill, shook its body and walked towards the outside of the Huai River.
…
Cloud world.
"Come, come, come, fellow Taoist, do you want a Taoist companion? My Lin family..."
"My Wang family's daughter has three spiritual roots of the highest grade..."
More than two hundred years have passed, and the fairy order shrouding the Yunxiao Realm is still there, and the rolling spiritual energy is still pouring into the realm, but it is not as strong as at the beginning.
In an inconspicuous treasure ship, a monk with green spiritual light shining all over his body was suspended, and his aura seemed very calm.
The treasure ship was covered with countless spiritual barriers, isolating it from praying eyes from both inside and outside.
The monk was floating quietly as if in deep sleep.
High on the treasure ship's deck, a monk in coarse linen clothes and a large straw hat leaned against the side of the boat. A pair of eyes from under the brim of his hat looked around with great interest at the monks from the same family who were trying to snatch the bride.
He has been watching the plays here for nearly two hundred years. They are performed every now and then and are very interesting.
Of course, while watching the show, he was also looking at the cultivators coming and going around, and paying more attention to the cultivators flying out from the Yunxiao Realm.
"It is unheard of that a cultivator from one world could ascend to heaven with his entire world."
After a long time, the big straw hat was pulled down to cover the face.
"Pei Tianlan, Pei Tian..."
The fingers tapped on the side of the boat, making a tapping sound.
"Looking at his actions within the realm, he has eliminated all traces and has been planning for thousands of years before making his move. This is enough to show that this cultivator is very cautious. He may have already escaped beyond the Huai River."
Inside the treasure ship, a figure in the green light opened and closed his eyes.
"Not necessarily. This cultivator had been planning for nearly ten thousand years, and although he hid himself everywhere, he finally announced to the world that he had established the Bu Tian Sect."
"Repairing the sky, repairing the sky, in the name of repairing the sky, the whole world ascends, which is enough to show that this cultivator is not so indifferent to fame and fortune."
"You have done something so earth-shattering, and shocked countless cultivators in the entire Huai River area. As the person behind all this, do you think you will come back to witness your own work and satisfy your inflated heart?"
"This has nothing to do with being cautious, but with my own habits. Taoist friends who often kill people know that returning to the scene after committing a crime and watching the spectacular scene is the most exciting moment."
"This envoy is very curious about this cultivator. According to the comprehensive information, this cultivator has extraordinary skills. Let's dig it out and see. Maybe we can take it into our Lingmu Immortal Palace."
Hearing this, the monk sneered under the straw hat and said nothing more.
"It's up to you. They may not come if you want them to."
"Besides, this world has been touched by the Heavenly Demon. The old demon Wuwang is a tough guy."
The immortal envoys of Lingmu Immortal Palace are aloof from external things and do not intervene in the disputes between local forces. Their main task is to guard the spiritual trees and collect spiritual trees and information.
There will be an immortal envoy in every region, and his strength can be at the level of refining emptiness. Of course, the specific realm depends on each person.
The Lingmu Immortal Envoy of the Huai River area is a rare Green Wine Clan cultivator. Although he is only in the middle stage of the Refining Void Realm, he is proficient in several secret techniques and is good at strange secret arts.
With his own secret skills and a strong backer, he can almost walk sideways on the Huai River.
The Straw Hat Monk was the Spirit Wood Immortal Envoy from the neighboring Cangyuan Land. He happened to be escorting a spirit tree to the Huai River, so he came over to take a look.
One of the two was in the boat, and the other was outside. Neither of them was in a hurry to leave, and no one knew what they were thinking.
"There are so many secrets in this Yunxiao Realm. What is the Heavenly Demon Palace doing here?"
The eyes under the straw hat were rolling around.
…
Over two hundred years.
As the cultivators from the Yunxiao Realm came out, many things also spread throughout the Huai River.
For example, the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce had cultivators in the Yunxiao Realm cultivate Yin-Yang Spirit Leaves, capture cultivators with five spiritual roots, and so on. They even used the order of this world to cover up and arrange for cultivators from the Huai River area to reincarnate in the lower world. These news had already been leaked.
Many forces that were arranging for the reincarnation of monks in the lower world had already arrived outside the Yunxiao Realm. After a lot of collection, they were unable to collect even the ashes of the reincarnated clansmen.
On the contrary, more than two hundred years ago, many cultivators saw from afar the thunder of punishment from the sky striking the Yunxiao Realm.
During this period of time, people have repeatedly seen the vice president of Jinghe Chamber of Commerce, Qi, appearing outside the Yunxiao Realm, with an attitude that no strangers are allowed in, which further confirms the rumor.
Everyone also reacted in hindsight. No wonder the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce had sent the Branchless Dragon Ape to garrison here. It turned out that the Yunxiao Realm had brought huge profits to the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce. The Yin-Yang Spirit Leaves that some of them bought from the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce were produced from this realm.
It's okay this time, all the reincarnated monks who were arranged were struck to death. Many monks gloated over it and secretly thought that these bastards deserved it.
Of course, these are not the most exciting ones.
Everyone is curious about a cultivator named Pei Tianlan.
Nowadays, among the young ladies in the red and green dragon boats outside the Yunxiao Realm, there is a saying that if they want to get married, they should marry Pei Tianlan.
The best girls from each family are now hiding in the dragon boat and not coming out. Every day they look around through the cracks in the windows, trying to find where Pei Tianlan is.
Did it fly out, or is it hiding within the boundary?
A seven or eight thousand year old Shenhua cultivator is immortal, but a seven or eight thousand year old Lianxu cultivator is in his prime.
Can fight and give birth.
They can do it all, whether on land or on water, or nine levels of ice and fire.
Unify the realm, dig the soil in the Immortal Palace, enhance the vitality within the realm, break the limits of the small thousand worlds, and lead everyone to fly together!
All these events told the cultivators in the Huai River area that this was a man of both means and courage.
A brilliant immortal, a great monk who has never appeared in the history.
If nothing else, after finding this person, I can have two kids and borrow some sperm.
Such a cultivator will definitely have a higher probability of achieving the Dao in the future than other cultivators, so it is better to leave a bloodline in advance to get ahead of them.
Yunxiao Pei Tianlan, what a magnificent monk! It's him, it's him, it's him! ...
In the green dragon boat of the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce, Vice President Qi's frown had not relaxed for a long time.
The Yunxiaojie trade route he led was in complete defeat, which had a huge impact on the Chamber of Commerce and also had a great impact on his voice in the Chamber of Commerce.
You should know that there are three vice presidents in the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce, and each vice president has a group of dependent monks and families under him.
The Yin-Yang Spirit Leaves that were previously ordered but could not be delivered are still a good deal, but the forces consisting of more than a dozen reincarnated monks have been coming to cause trouble frequently recently.
The instigator of everything is this guy named Pei Tianlan.
He led everyone to break through the boundary, causing the reincarnated monks hiding in the boundary to be sensed by the order of the fairy world, and were struck by thunder and turned into ashes.
Was there anything wrong with his prior arrangements? He had clearly blocked the two roads in and out of the Cloud Realm, which seemed to be a foolproof plan to anyone.
Who could have thought that a person like 'Pei Tianlan' would pop up in the Yunxiao Realm? You have a way but you don't take it, you cross the border.
It's really like wiping your butt with a screen window, letting the fellow Taoists in the fairy world know about it.
Now, not only is the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce looking for this cultivator, but Vice President Qi has noticed that many forces are looking for Pei Tianlan, so the Chamber of Commerce President has also issued an order to search for Pei Tianlan with all their might.
It doesn't mean that we have to kill. As a chamber of commerce, we can see if there is any possibility of cooperation.
Now, there are various forces and people with all kinds of thoughts surrounding the Yunxiao Realm.
But this cultivator has been missing so far, and no one knows whether he escaped early or hid in the realm and did not come out.
It's not that he hasn't used divination, deduction, tracking and other techniques, but the fairy order near Yunxiao is shrouding it, interfering with the performance of the secret techniques.
In addition, this cultivator named Pei Tianlan is so damn secretive. Apart from what we could learn about through the cultivators from the Yunxiao Realm, there is no other trace of him.
Unfortunately, we are currently unable to go down into the Yunxiao Realm and can only passively guard outside.
At this time, the jade disc of communication in Vice Chairman Qi's arms flew up.
"Vice Presidents Yun and Zhou went to see you again and asked you to punish you for what happened in the Cloud Realm. They want to take away the management rights of the two large mineral veins in Jinjing Lake and Liusha River. You have agreed."
Watching the spiritual light in the jade disk dissipate, Vice President Qi frowned even deeper. He had previously suspected that the president had arranged something else in the Yunxiao Realm, but he did not find anything unusual.
Moreover, after the Cloud Realm split apart, the leader had no other arrangements except for the normal investigation.
There are clear rewards and punishments within the Chamber of Commerce. Yunxiaojie was punished for his failure this time, and taking away two trade routes is also a normal punishment. The mineral veins in these two waters are the largest mineral veins in his hands.
"Pei Tianlan, you spoil me."
…
Cangyuan, yellow sand mountain.
The vast abyss is filled with mountains and valleys, and Huangsha Mountain is the ancestral land of the Huang family that has been passed down for millions of years.
As a family that once produced a Hedao ancestor and still has a mid-stage Lianxu cultivator in charge, the Huang family has declined a bit, but it is still a dominant force in the vicinity.
Looking from afar, the mountains are a mixture of earth yellow and gold, and even the grass and trees are yellow.
After seventeen years of journey from the Huai River, Shen Lian finally stood on the edge of the Huang family's home.
The Huang family has a large territory, and their ordinary clansmen have built hundreds of large and small cities around the Huangsha Mountain. All clan members above the Nascent Soul stage have a small mountain range as a cave residence, where their blood relatives can live together.
Shen Lian did not pay much attention to these youngsters. He took advantage of the cover of night and, under the guidance of Huang Youdao, quietly entered the Huang family.
Huang Youdao, as the ancestor of the Huang family, practiced in seclusion in the deepest part of the Huang family's ancestral land. No other members of the family lived in the area within a radius of ten thousand miles.
This is a land of yellow sand.
As the yellow sand leaked out grain by grain, a sunken area appeared, and nine ochre-colored stone statues were revealed, emitting a biting cold air.
Shen Lian came here across the galaxy with the clear purpose of visiting the clan library.
There are two auras of the early stage of refining emptiness visible near the Huang family treasury, but there is no problem for the family ancestor to go to the clan treasury.
The Huang family's clan treasury is protected by a sixth-grade top-grade formation. It is the last sixth-grade top-grade spiritual object handed down from that year, but it only maintains the minimum level of operation. After all, the family is not rich.
After Huang Youdao entered the clan treasury, he directly skipped the first floor, which was filled with tens of thousands of spiritual objects, all of which were used by second, third, and fourth level juniors.
After entering the second level, the quality is higher, with thousands of fifth-level ores, boxes of high-quality spirit stones, and some fifth-level spirit herbs, medicines, and elixirs.
When they reached the middle of the second floor, Huang Youdao cast a spell and a piece of quicksand emerged, trapping the man directly underneath.
As the quicksand emitted wave-like ripples, the third level slowly changed from an illusion to reality.
Compared to the previous two floors, this floor is very small, with only a space of a thousand feet. Most of the shelves made of sixth-level spiritual wood are empty, and some of the boxes are sealed and covered with thick dust.
There are also notes marked on the outside of the wooden box.
There were a total of four sixth-grade low-grade spiritual treasures, two sixth-grade mid-grade spiritual treasures, five sixth-grade low-grade talismans, and nearly five hundred boxes of top-grade spirit stones, each marked to contain one thousand pieces, but more than three hundred of them were empty.
At the deepest part, there is a small box with a ban on it and the words "spiritual crystal" marked on it. The lid had been opened long ago and was empty inside.
There are also more than a dozen pieces of sixth-level ores, which are the best among similar ores and are also placed on the shelves.
As for the sixth-level spiritual medicine, there are only a few of them.
The clan library is like this.
The things in the Huang family warehouse cannot be taken away, otherwise the family will not be able to operate and there will be problems. Shen Lian still has to maintain the character of Huang Youdao.
With three forces as support, it would be easy for him to sell the finished products he refined.
However, he has not yet figured out what skill to use to earn spirit stones.
When in the Yunxiao Realm, the Butian Sect displayed the skills of alchemy, weapon refining, formation, and puppetry. To be on the safe side, these four skills cannot be displayed too much for the time being.
Once the three families have a steady stream of high-quality resources, others may not know about it, but Ye Dongliu of the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce will definitely have some guesses, because he and Huang Youdao and the other two were planning the reincarnation together.
Huang Youdao and the other two are no match for Ye Dongliu now.
It may even have been spread in the Huai River area that a fellow named Pei Tianlan has cultivators under his command who are proficient in formations, alchemy and other methods.
The making of talismans and spiritual plants was not often shown to others in Yunxiao Realm, mainly because the resources in Yunxiao Realm at that time were unable to supply these skills.
…
"Ancestor."
Huang Youdao had just walked out of the clan treasury when the head of the Huang family, who had received the message earlier, rushed back.
The head of the Huang family is named Huang Shiren.
Huang Shiren has a very gentle personality, and to be frank, a little weak, which is why Huang Youdao promoted him to be the head of the family.
The head of the family needs to be obedient, nothing else matters.
"Shi Ren, have you arranged the matters related to the tribulation?"
"Reporting to the ancestor, a substitute has been arranged. After the tribulation is passed, it will be announced to the public that the clan member who passed the tribulation unfortunately died under the heavenly tribulation."
Huang Shiren nodded, this was something that had been decided long ago.
It is impossible for the Huang family ancestor to go outside to endure the tribulation. The fluctuations of a heavenly tribulation are too great, and it would be easy to be exposed if it attracted other cultivators to spy on it.
The ancestor is different from other cultivators who have reached the perfect state of spiritual transformation. If outsiders were to notice anything, the danger would be too great.
For this reason, he was arranged to prepare for this matter long before the ancestor was reincarnated.
In order to prepare for the ancestor's return and the tribulation, Huang Shiren has often encouraged the old incarnation to try his best over the years, just in case he could survive the tribulation by chance.
Although there has been no success over the years, it has brought about the trend of cultivating perfect gods in the clan.
"Um."
Huang Youdao nodded and said, "I just checked the treasury and took out some top-grade spiritual stones and ores. The family has indeed declined over the years. As the clan leader, I'm sorry for the hardship you've suffered."
"After I have survived the heavenly tribulation, I will ask my old friend to exchange a sixth-grade high-quality talisman for my clan."
Huang Shiren's eyes lit up. A sixth-grade high-quality talisman could already threaten a person who had reached the Great Perfection of Refining Void. Now the Huang family was just an empty shell, and was at a disadvantage in the dispute with other nearby forces, which were pressing the Huang family step by step.
"Ancestor, is the channel safe?"
Huang Youdao glanced at Huang Shiren. This young master is quite capable. He can still stay awake in front of a sixth-grade top-quality talisman.
“It’s absolutely safe.”
Huang Youdao narrowed his eyes and nodded. He was the channel. How could it not be safe? Would I harm myself? It was not easy to be an ancestor. Before the clan treasury was emptied, he had to bleed to feed the family.
"Shiren obeys the old ancestor's orders."
"By the way, after I overcome the tribulation, I will send Kun Suo to the ancestral land and I will teach him personally."
Huang Kunsuo is the great-grandson of Huang Shiren. He has superior spiritual roots and a special physique. As soon as he was born, he was given the family name Kun.
"Thank you, ancestor."
Huang Shiren prostrated himself on the ground and bowed deeply, then listened to a few instructions before turning around and leaving.
Huang Youdao squinted his eyes and looked at Huang Shiren's back for a few more times before retracting his gaze. For more than two hundred years, this young patriarch was still very obedient.
The sixth-grade top-grade spiritual talisman material was obtained thanks to the stupid spiritual beast Ghost Dragon from You Shifang. On the way to Cang Yuan, Shen Lian had been skinning it, extracting its tendons, and preparing the spiritual ink.
Although Huang Youdao and the other two were reincarnated successfully, with the help of his original body, the Five Elements Rules also reached the second level at an astonishing speed within two hundred years. However, after all, he has only just completed his spiritual transformation, so he still needs to prepare some talismans.
If you want to reap the rewards, you have to invest first.
…
A few years later.
Above the yellow sand of the Huang family's ancestral land, the calamity energy between heaven and earth dissipated little by little, and a ball of brilliant spiritual essence of heaven and earth fell from the sky and landed on Huang Youdao.
Thousands of miles away from the range of the heavenly tribulation, Shen Lianmao shrank his body in the cave.
Huang Youdao's clone's tribulation really made him nervous for a long time.
You have to know that he has now occupied part of Huang Youdao's fate. The order of immortals is supreme, and he was very scared during the tribulation.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly. The appearance of the Lianxu Heavenly Tribulation represented that Huang Youdao's fate had really avoided the spying of the order of heaven and earth.
But Shen Lian also had a prediction that although he could avoid the heavenly tribulation of Lianxu, he would most likely be unable to avoid the spying of the immortal order when he merged with the Dao.
But it doesn't matter. At most he can refine it into a puppet as a disposable spiritual treasure. As long as he can survive the nine-nine heavenly tribulations, it will be fine.
Someone in the clan was undergoing the heavenly tribulation of refining the void. According to custom, the Huang family activated the formation to seal the void, prohibiting cultivators from traveling to the void where the tribulation was occurring. Even if outside cultivators wanted to watch, they would not be able to see anything from thousands of miles away, not to mention cultivators from other forces outside.
Soon, the news came.
Another old cultivator of the Huang family who had reached the perfect state of transformation was unwilling to die, and forcibly triggered the heavenly tribulation of refining emptiness. He was clearly on the verge of success, but fell short at the last moment, and was chopped into pieces.
Then, a low-key funeral was held among the branch of the clan that had survived the tribulation.
Huang Youdao's heavenly tribulation was half as strong as Shen Lian's, but it was many times stronger than Pei Tianlan's. It was worth his reincarnation. With the blessing of the spiritual essence of heaven and earth, the law of gravity successfully entered the first level.
"With my blessing, Huang Youdao's magical power should be almost the same as that of the middle stage of the Void Refining Realm."
After a comprehensive consideration of Huang Youdao, Shen Lian made a judgment in his mind.
According to what the little demon said before, this level of combat power is also considered to be the level of a true disciple in the Hedao Holy Land.
The only difference between Huang Youdao and the true disciples of the holy land is that he is too old. After his fate is restored, his life span before reincarnation is counted starting from that before.
It's like an old man refining his talent.
"Hey, fellow Daoist, come with me and develop in a low profile."
"Being strong at first doesn't make you strong. If you try to be strong, you will be able to crush the begonias even if you are strong enough."
After Huang Youdao passed the Lianxu Heavenly Tribulation, although he still needed to hide to avoid being attacked by hostile forces, his control over the family suddenly increased.
Shen Lian also began to prepare sixth-grade top-grade talismans for Huang Youdao. Ten thousand years ago, the Huang family had reached the great perfection of the Refined Void realm, but ten thousand years later, they suddenly fell to the middle stage of the Refined Void realm. It is conceivable how much territory and resources they have lost.
The ancestor of the family has not come out for ten thousand years, and has become a vassal of the Huang family. The hostile families of the Huang family are not fools either, and they have already swallowed up more than half of the territory of the Huang family.
To put it bluntly, you are just asking for more. Eat a little today, and if your Huang family ancestor doesn't come out tomorrow, eat a little more the day after tomorrow.
In comparison, Wangshu Valley does a great job.
During his reincarnation, Patriarch Wangshu arranged for himself to die suddenly.
After losing the master of Lianxu Dayuan, Wangshu Valley was immediately suppressed by the surrounding forces and its territory continued to shrink, but it managed to maintain its foundation and the overall territory was very stable.
Just when Shen Lian was preparing to improve his talisman-making skills, early that morning, a treasure ship with the flag of the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce appeared in the air outside the gate of Huangjiashan.
"Zhao Junqing from the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce came uninvited, please don't blame me, fellow Huang."
