Chapter 201 Qiufeng County
Yu Xian listened quietly to Li Liangyu's introduction, and combined with the previous popular science of Wanshou Zhenren, he had a rough preliminary impression of Xuanyang Realm.
Xuanyang Realm has a vast territory, spanning more than 100,000 miles, and is ruled by Shangzong Xuanyang Sect.
Under the Xuanyang Sect, eight heavenly cities in Xuanyang can be subdivided, and the owner of each heavenly city is the legendary Nascent Soul Lord.
That’s right, not one or two, but eight!
And there are eight who have been entrusted, which means that there are probably several old monsters in Xuanyang Sect's main sect.
If you estimate as high as possible.
The Yuanying level combat power in Xuanyang Sect is at least more than the number of two palms.
Not to mention their sect's Taoist soldiers, high-level magic formations, mountain-protecting spiritual beasts, high-level puppets, various magic weapons and spiritual treasures and other heretical methods.
In other words, Xuanyang Sect is not a run-down sect that only has one or two old immortals left in the early stage of Nascent Soul who are approaching their end to support the scene.
But a tyrannical sect that was at its peak in the Spring and Autumn Period and suppressed all dissenters!
Although he was talking about high-level maps, it seemed that Xuanyang Realm was only a little higher than Shangyang City.
But in fact, reality never gives him the opportunity to upgrade and fight monsters step by step, and the map boss will not always be only one or two small realms higher than him.
After all, Shangyang City was such a peaceful place that Xuanyang Sect was able to send a Jindan master to build the city and rule it.
Not to mention the personnel allocation in a wealthy land, naturally they will not be stingy.
That is to say, he has not met many Jindan-level opponents yet, and in theory, he will have to face the pressure of Yuanying boss.
And it’s the pressure from a group of Nascent Soul bosses.
But the good news is that he has no conflict with the Xuanyang Sect, and there is no long-standing hatred. There is no need to worry about a true king coming unexpectedly and rewarding him with a big dick.
Unless he waits until he has the opportunity to threaten Xuanyang Sect in the future, then he may attract suppression from Xuanyang Sect.
So this pressure does not exist for the time being.
Moreover, Xuanyang Sect's ruling model is not the one where one family is the only one and only one is the only one.
For example, among the Nascent Soul Lords of the Eight Heavenly Cities, only half of them are monks from the Xuanyang Sect.
The other half were half-level disciples who were absorbed by the Xuanyang Sect and granted a city.
In other words, all he had to do was catch him by surprise, and in a short period of time he would reach a point where even the Xuanyang Sect's suppression would feel painful.
Even if he offends the Xuanyang Sect, he will most likely be recruited by them and entrusted to become the Lord of the Celestial City.
But this is a long-term goal.
If you want to reach that level, you must at least start at the Nascent Soul realm.
The short-term goal is to settle down here first, establish a presence, and look for opportunities for his angel investor plan.
And this has to look at the young master of the Li family in front of him.
Under the major heavenly cities, they are divided into prefectural cities and county towns, as well as families and small sects attached to each city.
Each city has a high degree of autonomy. In theory, it is only responsible to its immediate superiors, so its authority is extremely heavy.
For example, a county leader, according to Xuanyang Sect's rules, can only hold the position if he is in the foundation-building realm, but he can be on an equal footing with the opposition Jindan master.
Because there are people above them who are organized.
However, Xuanyang Zongjuan is very powerful. Even if he is a county leader, most of them must have the Golden Core realm to hold the position.
And Li Liangyu was under the rule of Mingyue Tiancheng, one of the eight major cities, and Wangshu Fucheng, one of the four major cities, and was the descendant of the famous Li family in Qiufeng County.
It is said that the Li family was also a golden elixir family back then. Unexpectedly, in the early years, the youngest daughter of the head of the Li family fell in love with a wandering monk in the mountains and insisted on marrying him, even at the risk of death.
In the end, the Li family saw that the casual cultivator's qualifications were quite good, so they recognized him with a pinched nose, recruited him as their wife, and even gave him foundation-building spiritual objects.
She didn't want her son-in-law to be ambitious, so after establishing the foundation, he looked very grateful to the Li family. Not only did he have three sons and four daughters with the youngest daughter of the Li family, he also worked conscientiously for the Li family for decades.
The Li family also relaxed its vigilance against him and accepted him as one of their own.
Until the deadline for the ancestor of the Li family who suppressed luck was approaching.
The Li family devoted all their efforts to help the Li family's golden elixir seed break through, but was secretly sabotaged by the son-in-law, destroying the life of the golden elixir seed.
The ancestor of the Li family passed away soon after receiving the news.
However, the son-in-law who was supposed to die with Jindan Daozhong returned as a real person and took over the power of the Li family naturally.
The Li family's adopted son-in-law is the head of the family. Over the past few decades, the Li family has changed dynasties.
Nowadays, everyone only knows about the Tong family and not about the Li family.
Li Liangyu, as a secretly cultivated bloodline of the Li family, usually presented himself as a playboy and useless person. In fact, he practiced hard behind the scenes and finally broke through to the realm of foundation building at the age of thirty.
Just when everything was getting better, a direct uncle of the Li family rebelled, not only betraying the fact that Li Liangyu was a genius, but also revealing that Li Liangyu held a secret token in his hand, which was the last secret of the Li family.
The so-called secret realm is a semi-independent small space that is transformed into a semi-independent space after the Lord Nascent Soul is seated and transformed into his own legal domain after sensing the heaven and earth.
Ordinary monks must meet the conditions set by the secret realm if they want to enter.
Some secret realms are limited to cultivation level, some secret realms are limited to bloodline, and some secret realms are limited to gender, age...
The secret token in the hands of the Li family was set up by a certain Nascent Soul cultivator in search of a successor.
You can enter the secret realm by holding the token.
Naturally, the Li family is not that confident that Li Liangyu can obtain the inheritance of the True Lord with just a token.
They just want Li Liangyu to have a chance to get a chance to form an elixir after entering the secret realm.
As long as Li Liangyu breaks through the golden elixir realm, he will have the opportunity to regain his lintel and regain the Li family's foundation.
However, the news was leaked that the Li family died with only their blood left, and they surrendered. Only Li Liangyu escaped by chance.
Then he was overtaken by the pursuers.
"...If I hadn't been rescued by the young master, I'm afraid I would have been exposed in the wilderness and eaten by wild beasts."
Li Liangyu smiled bitterly, his voice a little lonely.
As Yu Xian listened, he felt that something was wrong.
What a protagonist!
A young genius, who was tempted but failed to act, suffered a blood feud, narrowly escaped death, met a noble person, and was lucky enough to be saved...
The protagonists are all treated well.
The next step should be for the protagonist’s halo to turn on, his level to soar, the king’s return, his successful revenge, his pretense to be slapped in the face, and challenges along the way…
The more Yu Xian thought about it, the more panicked he became.
How do you feel that he will become the protagonist's supporting villain on the road to sacrifice to heaven? After all, he has the right to control people's lives as soon as they meet, and he has the face of a proper villain.
Follow the Nine-Liu Long Aotian routine he had seen before.
Next, the women around him may fall in love with each other, say they have found true love, and stab him in the back.
What, he's disfigured, he doesn't even have a face?
For the protagonist Halo, it doesn't matter that he is a pig.
Yu Xian suddenly felt that the blood soul guide was a bit unsafe.
Although this is a secret technique that has been certified by the Demon Sect for who knows how many years, as the saying goes, there is no perfect secret technique in the world. There are always means to restrain it, it just depends on whether the price is enough.
And isn’t it true that the main character does things that adults can’t do?
but……
It's me who cheated, so that's okay.
Yu Xian's eyes gradually became kind.
Since blood soul inducing is not safe, then add a heretic golden elixir.
For ordinary monks, heretic golden elixir is already the greatest pursuit and opportunity in life.
But for geniuses, heretic golden elixir is the strongest fetter in the world.
After all, heretic Jindan has no way to advance in his life, and the spiritual energy of heaven has been absorbed by him, so he is destined to have no way forward.
All geniuses must be scrapped.
He has never been a good person, and he has never thought of others as good people.
He won't feel that if he saves others, they will be grateful to him, fall in love with him, work hard and work hard for him, and work like a horse for him.
Therefore, only by directly killing the capital that betrayed him can we get rid of it once and for all.
"My husband, he is so pitiful."
After hearing Li Liangyu's story, Yu Lan's sympathy came out again.
But it’s just a general idea.
She has always been a person who knows how to behave appropriately. She would not feel sorry for others, so she would just ask her husband to help them.
Even if she wanted to help, she would do so within her own capabilities and would not bother others.
But this time it's different.
Yu Xian's face straightened up, he held Yulan's hand and said affectionately:
"Consider it your good luck, since Yulan has spoken, I will help you once, of course, provided that you have not deceived me.
I will ask someone to investigate this matter clearly. If what you say is true, it doesn't matter if I give you a chance. "
He was worried about how to integrate into the local forces in a low-key manner.
Li Liangyu sent him an excuse.
As the Jindan family, the Li family has been passed down for hundreds of years, so it is not surprising that they have several close friends.
Now that the Li family is in trouble, it is reasonable for them to help each other as friends.
Of course, the premise is that the son-in-law who is also quite destined to be the protagonist does not have any weird backing forces.
If someone is not easy to mess with, he will send Li Liangyu back to his original place in a minute, and by the way, he can also help the unmasked son-in-law to make up for his wounds.
But when Yulan heard this, a strange look appeared in her eyes, secretly wondering when Xianggong had changed his gender.
My husband always allowed her to be willful in small matters without causing any harm.
But he never allowed others to disobey his will in major matters, so how could he change his mind just because of her little pity.
But even if it was just for others to see, she was still happy.
Otherwise, why not pretend in front of others.
Thinking of this, Yu Lan nuzzled in Yu Xian's arms like a kitten, and said with a silly smile:
"Mr., you are so kind."
"Young Master, just go and investigate. If I say anything that is untrue, I will personally cut off this head to make amends to you."
However, Li Liangyu didn't know it. Instead, he was filled with excitement and was even more grateful for the magnolia in Yu Xian's arms.
After all, throughout the ages, he has done many ridiculous things for Pomeranian Yixiao, and this is not the least of them.
Yu Xian didn't comment, just waved his hand lightly, asking Li Liangyu to step back, and continued to rest on Yulan's lap.
Looking at the bright night sky and seeing the stars dotting it, my mind gradually sank.
…
After passing the Jinpeng Demon Vein and heading north for more than three hundred miles, you can see a large city called Qiufeng County.
Qiufeng County is located in a wilderness and has no fortifications such as city walls.
It's just a stretch of high-rise buildings, built neatly on both sides of the streets according to the plan.
Judging from its size, it can accommodate millions of people.
Outside the city are endless golden rice fields. It is the golden autumn at this time. The wheat ears in the fields are falling heavily, and the breeze blows, making a fine rustling sound.
From time to time, you can see farmers working hard in the fields. They are all dark and lean, with strong vitality. There are also supervisors holding long whips on the field ridges. They are all monks with good cultivation.
There are at least hundreds of thousands of acres of land here, and they are all spiritual fields!
Although it is only the lowest level spiritual field, it is still a spiritual field and produces spiritual rice.
Ordinary people, no matter how poor their qualifications are, even if they are just practicing the innate Qi training techniques of the poor street, as long as they can eat this spiritual rice every day, they can still develop magic power.
A glimpse of one spot reveals the whole leopard.
Food is the most important thing for the people. If there is enough spiritual rice, the possibility of cultivating at the lower level will be greatly improved, and they can continue to produce blood. If a suitable selection mechanism is used to select the best from the best, it will naturally ensure that the sect will rule for eternity.
Not far outside Qiufeng County, there was a third-order middle-grade spiritual vein, hidden under the mountain.
It was the spiritual power of this spiritual vein that permeated the earth, and the monks cultivated it again, resulting in hundreds of thousands of acres of endless spiritual fields.
Spiritual veins are a natural thing, but most of them are connected to mountains and water veins.
The mountain is also named Autumn Wind. On the mountain are built jade towers, palace complexes and caves.
From time to time, streaks of escaping light can be seen falling from the sky, or flying out from the mountains, and various spiritual birds and beasts are dancing in the mountains, giving it a fairy-like atmosphere.
It is similar to the plan of Shangyang City.
The real core of the spiritual vein is sparsely populated, and is inhabited by high-level monks and their families.
And more middle- and lower-class monks and mortals live in the city at the foot of the mountain, working day and night for the luxurious enjoyment above, hoping that one day they can live on the mountain.
Under the guidance of Li Liangyu, Yu Xian came from afar and had a panoramic view of Qiufeng County.
…
Qiufeng County, Lailu Inn.
A small courtyard was rented by a group of foreign monks.
In the courtyard, I was leisurely tasting the monkey wine brought back from Baoyuan Mountain.
Monkey wine is fermented fruit wine. However, due to the addition of various spiritual herbs in the mountains, there is no fixed formula, and the natural wine-making skills of a group of monkeys, the monkey wine has a unique flavor.
He would occasionally taste it. As for the spiritual energy contained in the wine, it could only be considered insignificant to his current state.
Next to her were Yu Lan and Luo Han, who were chatting quietly together. Because they were new here, both of them had some novelty and excitement on their faces.
Li Liangyu was placed in a small room in the courtyard, which was actually a prison.
He cannot come out until his words are verified.
Others were sent out by him to collect information.
Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be victorious in every battle.
Two hours later, people who went out to inquire about the news came back one after another, and Yu Xian also pieced together the distribution of forces in the area from everyone's opinions.
It's pretty much the same as what Li Liangyu said.
Qiufeng County can be divided into two major forces. One is the county magistrate who was born in the Xuanyang Sect and a Jindan Zhenren. He has eight hundred Qianqiu troops under his command and is very capable of fighting.
The other major force is the local family force, dominated by the Tao family, which is intricately connected and has great influence.
The head of the Xiu family is what Li Liangyu calls his son-in-law, Xiu Zhenren.
He was indeed the surrogate son-in-law of the Li family in his early years, and the matter was a big deal back then, with various versions circulating in the public.
According to Li Liangyu, it was the Li family's youngest daughter who was blind and threatened to die that she wanted to stay and fly with the cultivator, so the Li family had to agree to let her marry her.
But there are rumors that it was the Li family who took a fancy to Xiu Zhenren's talent and plotted to make Xiu Zhenren and the Li family's daughter achieve good things. They forcibly separated Xiu Zhenren's childhood sweetheart and forced him to marry into the Li family.
It was also said that Xiu Zhen was so scheming that he ruined the innocence of the Li family's daughter, and the Li family almost killed him for it. He was also Xiu Zhen's teacher, and a highly respected county school teacher showed his old face and asked the county magistrate to make peace.
This incident happened more than a hundred years ago. For it to be passed down, it was only when the cultivator came into the Li family that his romantic affair became popular again.
For the people at the bottom, nothing is more attractive than gossip about big shots.
"Speaking of it this way, the only thing that is certain is that Xiuzhen was indeed from a low-class background. He was selected into the county school because of his outstanding talent. The teacher who was teaching at the county school at the time took the fancy of him and originally planned to recommend him to the Xuanyang Sect for examination.
Later, when he became the son-in-law of the Li family, the matter was settled.
And the teacher who was said to have trained several inner disciples of the Xuanyang Sect has long since passed away, which means that even if there is any relationship with the cultivator, it was only through his personal acquaintance later.
He himself is only in the early stage of Jindan, and his circle is only around the middle stage of Jindan. Even if he can call in some help, it will only be at this level at most.
If he really went to Xuanyang Sect for further study, I would still be wary.
Who knows what kind of connections he will get to know. "
Yu Xian thought secretly in his heart and had already made a preliminary plan.
It's like a student from an ordinary background who is admitted to a prestigious university. Even if he has no connections in his family, his mentor and director are most likely to be big names that ordinary people can only see in the news. They are the local governors. Be polite and careful who you entertain.
If you touch such a person, there is a slight possibility that it will break the sky.
This is the importance of the platform.
But a self-taught person, no matter how talented he is, can only rely on himself. Even family and friends are not his support, but become a drag.
"But there's no rush. This is all private information. Stay here for a while and find out more about it."
…
One month later.
Li Liangyu stood in front of Yu Xian slightly nervously, waiting for his trial.
"Sir, what do you want me to do?"
This was the first time he walked out of the room in a month. Thanks to him being a foundation-building monk, he could live without food for several months, otherwise he would have starved to death.
Yu Xian said quite casually:
"I have inquired about the matter clearly. It is slightly different from what you said, but it is not too different.
During the time when you were being hunted, the Li family bloodline did undergo a major purge.
Originally, I would not care about this matter. There are so many injustices in the world, so how much can I care about.
But now that Yulan has spoken, I will give you a chance to choose. "
Yu Xian's voice was a little more serious.
"Have you ever heard of heretic golden elixir?"
Li Liangyu smiled bitterly and said: "I've heard of it, but the difficulty of practicing the heretic golden elixir doesn't need to be any less than breaking through the golden elixir."
His voice suddenly paused and became a little more passionate.
"Does the young master want to..."
Li Liangyu didn't dare to say any more, for fear of breaking the illusion.
His qualifications are good, but they are only below the level of Jin Dan. If he wants to break through the Jin Dan realm, he still needs an opportunity.
Yu Xian nodded and said: "By chance, I got a heretic golden elixir. As long as a monk at the peak of Foundation Establishment refines it, he will be 60 to 70% sure of breaking through.
I think since it is your own blood feud, it is better for you to avenge it yourself. "
Li Liangyu was in high spirits. He was burdened with hatred and never thought about the problem that heretic Jindan had no way forward.
All he knew was that by becoming a golden elixir, he would be able to take revenge with his own hands.
Thinking about it this way, he felt that the young master in front of him was not too hateful.
Although his personality is a bit bad, as Miss Yulan said, he is also very good to his subordinates, and he can even bring out great opportunities such as the heretic golden elixir.
"But I'm only in the early stage of foundation building now?"
After Li Liangyu was excited, he was quite embarrassed.
"It's a coincidence that I happen to have a secret method in my hand, which can burn the essence, blood and life span to quickly improve the realm.
If you are willing to practice, you can reach the peak of foundation building in five years at most.
But by then, if you cannot break through the golden elixir and replenish your longevity in time, you may die of old age immediately.
But even if you break through then, you will only have two to three hundred years to live.
Do you want to take the gamble? "
What Yu Xian was talking about was a secret technique in the Blood Demon Technique that forcibly activates the potential. It was originally used to refine dead soldiers.
This kind of secret technique is used by a few even in the righteous sects, let alone the devil.
For example, Chen Xiao's cultivation progressed so quickly and he also used similar secret techniques. If he hadn't been successfully trained into a high-level Taoist soldier, he would have died long ago.
Li Liangyu struggled with his face, not knowing how to answer.
Yu Xian gave him time to think slowly, placed a jade slip gently on the table, and walked elsewhere.
Li Liangyu looked at the jade slips and heard the instructions and warnings given to him by the elders of the clan before he died.
"Liangyu, you must live. Only by living can you have hope!"
"Liangyu, I can't survive anymore. Take the token and run away. Only if you break through the golden elixir can we have hope of revenge."
"Liangyu, you are the Li family's last hope!"
…
Li Liangyu stepped forward step by step and finally caught the jade slip containing hope.
"I must take revenge!"
His eyes were blood red and full of anger.
