Chapter 206 The wind rises from duckweed
Fog, white fog, stretching fog.
The cultivator was stunned for a moment, and his vision was filled with white mist.
His consciousness immediately reached out, but it seemed as if he was touching thick walls. Every inch he explored forward consumed more mental power.
After advancing less than a hundred meters, he no longer had the strength to continue.
In other words, he was completely isolated from the outside world.
"Who set up the formation?"
The cultivator was shocked.
This is the Xiu family, his territory, but this safest place has turned into a trap silently.
He thought of Li Liangyu almost immediately.
Whoever benefits the most is the mastermind behind it.
Qiufeng County has been peaceful for so many years.
Among his enemies, only Li Liangyu, who had broken through the Golden Elixir realm in three years and had a mysterious trump card, had this ability.
But they just had a decisive battle outside the city, so how could he lurk in his house in advance without knowing the trap.
Therefore, there is someone behind Li Liangyu!
An idea popped into the cultivator's mind, but even if he realized the truth, it would not help his current situation.
As the mist eroded little by little, ghosts and ghosts filled the air, and buzzing sounds filled the ears, making people feel panicked unconsciously.
The cultivator no longer hesitated, and with a flash of his body, afterimages emerged in the air. It was the sixth-grade golden elixir magical power he had cultivated - Chasing Wind and Shadows!
This is an escaping magical power. During its practice, it needs to be supplemented with the juice of the Wind Shadow Grass, the powder of the Light Spirit Stone, the petals of the Floating Flower, and other spiritual objects that can enhance the body's speed and flexibility.
It took him thirty years after he completely took over the Li family to search for these spiritual objects one by one, and it took him nearly ten years to successfully inscribe this magical power into the golden elixir.
Once you successfully practice it, you will be able to possess extreme speed in the wind. Once it is used, even the monks in the middle and late stages of the Golden Elixir who do not have similar magical powers will never be able to catch up.
This is another trump card of Xiuzhen, even in the face of the combined force of Li Liangyu and the Ape King just now, it has not been exposed.
But now that he was aware of the danger, he used it without hesitation.
There was a swishing sound in the mist, and mist locks came out like poisonous snakes, but they could not block the retreating shadow of the cultivator.
The cultivator has been practicing for nearly two hundred years, and he has also dabbled in formations.
When the Fog Prison Formation was actually activated, he was keenly aware of the formation's weak point, which was its insufficient level.
If he forced a breakthrough, the formation would not be able to stop him.
However, what he could think of, how could Yu Xian not think of it.
Just when the cultivator tore through the layers of fog obstacles and came to the edge of the formation, he was about to break the formation and escape from the sky.
A blood curtain instantly swept across the sky, and the boundless sea of blood fell from the sky.
It is the ultimate magic weapon, the Ten Thousand Beasts Soul Flag!
The Fog Prison Formation combined with the Soul Flag of Ten Thousand Beasts completely makes up for the shortcomings of the Fog Prison Formation's lack of attack power, and also has a stronger ability to trap people.
It can be said to be a patchwork version of the third-order formation.
Back then, Lin Zhanlong's fighting power was astonishing. He defeated two fake alchemy monks in a row within a few moves, but he was still trapped in the formation by the Ten Thousand Beast Soul Banner.
In terms of actual combat effectiveness, Xiu Zhenren is not as good as Lin Zhanlong.
Lin Zhanlong is a powerful swordsman who has mastered the fourth-grade golden elixir magical power, which can be compared with those elite monks from sects.
However, although the cultivator was frightened, he did not panic.
As soon as his hand slipped, a dark red secret treasure similar to iron gall appeared in his palm. It was the surprise he had originally prepared for Li Liangyu - Huo Leizi.
boom!
Huo Leizi was instantly excited.
Like thunder from the sky stirring up fire from the earth, huge power was released in a small space, and the air was distorted and deformed.
The blood curtain was like a piece of silk that had been violently pulled. As the waves of blood rolled, a narrow opening was torn out, enough to allow three or five people to pass through.
The cultivator made a prompt decision and got directly behind the blood curtain.
He had a hunch that this was the last obstacle, and he would be able to escape after overcoming this obstacle.
Once outside, the dragon returns to the sea and the tiger enters the forest. He has the magical power of the golden elixir to chase the wind and shadows. In the realm of the golden elixir, he thinks that few people can catch up with him.
Right now.
A warning sign appeared in the cultivator's heart, and when he unconsciously looked forward, he saw a pair of cold and ruthless bloody eyes emerging in mid-air, glancing at him.
The secret technique of spiritual consciousness attack - shocking eyes!
The cultivator only felt the sea of consciousness tingling, as if a pair of eyes were occupying his body and mind, and there was a buzzing sound in his mind like chanting sutras, and his own consciousness was briefly suppressed for a moment.
However, life and death are often on a thin line.
When the cultivator suppressed the strangeness in the sea of consciousness, the hole opened by Huoleizi disappeared without knowing it.
Instead, an ugly giant demon wasp stood in front of him.
It was like a pile of countless small demon bees, with ferocious compound eyes all over its body and a big tail covered with stings.
The demon bee opened its tail, and countless stingers fell like arrows.
The cultivator knows in his heart that he must not retreat at this time, otherwise his chance of survival will be even slimmer.
He roared angrily, and earth spirit beads spun out from his dantian, laying an earthy yellow light mask around him.
As an auxiliary magic weapon, the earth spirit bead can greatly increase the power of earth-attribute magic, but even if it is not earth-attribute magic, you can still enjoy a small increase.
At this moment, he put up a spiritual shield and continued to fly forward against the bee sting.
But it was all in vain.
After the giant demon bee used one move, it seemed to be weak, and its huge body gradually turned into a shadow. What changed instead was a huge wave of boiling blood splashing down.
Boom!
The huge waves were like a huge mountain pressing down on them.
The cultivator clearly heard the painful groan of Tu Lingzhu in his ears, and the shield on his body could no longer hold on. With a click, his whole body was pressed down by the huge wave.
When Xiuzhen stood up again, the surrounding mist turned into chains and completely wrapped him.
There were black shadows in the mist that kept attacking him.
His mana was rapidly draining.
But the cultivator was also keenly aware that the person setting up the formation did not seem to intend to kill him.
Otherwise his attacks wouldn't be so gentle.
Whether it was the giant monster bee just now or those cold eyes, they were not easy to deal with.
"I think we can talk about how much benefit Li Liangyu has given you, and I can double it!"
The cultivator's consciousness continued to vibrate, spreading his voice farther.
When he couldn't get out of trouble by violent means, he could only try to persuade the other party.
"oh."
A joking voice came from the fog.
"Li Liangyu sold his life to me, can you pay a higher price than him?"
The cultivator suddenly became silent, and after a while he said with difficulty:
"Li Liangyu has nothing, so he can only work for you, but I am worth millions, and I am by no means as good as his barefoot counterparts.
If you are willing to stop interfering in this matter, I am willing to pay 500,000 spiritual stones to buy my life. "
"If I kill you, the spiritual stone will still belong to me."
The voice in the mist was faint, as if it was telling an extremely ordinary thing.
"But I have a suggestion."
"What advice?"
"You offer your golden elixir to me, and I will protect your family members from death."
Yu Xian repeated his old tricks.
Golden elixir is something between reality and reality.
Without his own cooperation, simply wanting to kill people and get elixirs like monsters is not something he can do now.
The cultivator's expression changed: "You want me to have my golden elixir? The golden elixir is a tool for cultivating both my life and my soul. How can I live without my golden elixir?"
"You can't survive, but your tribe can survive, and your blood can survive. This is a very good deal."
Yu Xian said calmly.
But he already knew that Xiuzhen would not compromise with him.
Because the cultivator only cares about his own life, but he never mentioned the bloodline of his clan members.
This is probably the difference between creating a generation and being rich for who knows how many generations.
The former has achieved everything by his own hard work and has a firm mind. His family is his vassal, not the subject.
The latter has been educated by his family since he was a child. He puts family interests first and can sacrifice himself for the family.
As expected, the cultivator only heard a sneer.
"You want to threaten me with the blood of my clan, but you are totally wrong.
I think that when I repaired my family, it was just a run-down peasant family, and I alone brought them to their current position of glory.
The entire Xiu family is honored because of me. They are the only ones who sacrifice for me. There is no reason for me to sacrifice for them.
Even if your Excellency slaughters all the blood of your family, you can't even think of making me blink an eye.
As for you thinking that you can get your family's property by killing me, it is also a wishful thinking. I have placed all your family's spiritual stones in a place where no one can find them.
No one can find it except me. "
The sound in the mist stopped suddenly, but the attack became more intense. The cultivator felt a pain in his back, and a giant bee stinger pierced his back.
The faint smell of blood filled the air.
The ground became increasingly muddy, like a swamp. Bloody hands grabbed his legs, making him sink deeper and deeper, unable to struggle.
Xiuzhen felt suffocated.
His eyes widened and his expression became more ferocious.
"Kill me and you'll get nothing!"
Xiuzhen is indeed a ruthless person who started from scratch and laid eggs by borrowing chickens to lay eggs. Even in life and death, he does not show much fear.
Half an hour later.
The last bit of the cultivator's mana was swallowed up by the sea of blood transformed by the soul flag, and the whole person fell into an immortal vegetative state.
A hand stretched out from the mist and pressed on his head.
Yu Xian said calmly: "I won't say anything hypocritical about getting rid of harm for the people. If I want to blame you, I blame you for not being decisive enough and not eradicating the root cause, so Li Liangyu met me."
After that, he directly used the Soul Searching Technique.
The spiritual power savagely squeezed into the unresisting cultivator's sea of consciousness, and then turned into small hands, constantly grasping the memory fragments in it.
Although Xiu Zhen is a family monk, compared to a sect such as Xuanyang Sect, he is actually a casual cultivator, so there are no restrictions imposed by masters in the sea of consciousness.
Many major sects will set up restrictions on their disciples' consciousness to prevent them from falling into the hands of their opponents and revealing the sect's secrets.
And Yu Xian's spiritual power has always been stronger than those in the same realm. At this moment, suppressing an exhausted Jindan monk is not too much of a burden.
In addition, the soul-searching technique can only see some memory fragments, and cannot completely peek into a person's life.
This is the first time that Yu Xian has used the Soul Searching Technique on a living person.
It felt like watching a long movie with Xiuzhen as the protagonist. Pictures kept flashing, and most of them were things that left a deep impression on Xiuzhen.
From the time Xiuzhen recorded his story, he was born into a family of tenant farmers, and his family farmed for the city lord's mansion for generations.
He was successful in practicing in his childhood and ranked first among his peers. He was successful in his youth and began to enter the county school to practice. However, he saw another world. He understood that there are people outside the world, and he fell from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the valley.
When he was at his lowest point, he was appreciated by his old teacher. As a young man, Mu Ai fell in love with his old teacher's disciples. However, his classmates were jealous and secretly bribed his teacher, taking away his opportunity to be selected into the Xuanyang Sect.
Junior sister went to Xuanyang Sect and was selected as an outer disciple. She wrote a letter saying that she would never come back.
The scene flashed by, the night was cold and dew heavy, the cultivator screamed at the moon, in endless pain.
After that night, Master Xiu turned to pursue Miss Li, who had a crush on him. In order to enter the Li family, he did not hesitate to enter the Li family as a son-in-law.
Then he established a foundation and made meritorious service, and took power in the Li family. He deliberately made friends with the Li family's golden elixir seeds and became friends of life and death.
The screen flashed again.
The Li family's golden elixir seed died in the hands of Master Xiu with a look of disbelief on his face. The elixir-formed spiritual object was grabbed by Master Xiu almost madly, and he looked up to the sky and laughed.
Then he made a desperate move and successfully formed the elixir.
In order to prevent the ancestors of the Li family from being held accountable, he did not dare to return home for twenty years, which made the Li family think that they died together outside.
It wasn't until the news came that the ancestor of the Li family had passed away, and the Li family refused to accept it, that he re-entered the Li family and took charge of the Li family.
On that day, he was in high spirits, and the excitement on the picture jumped out.
After that, Master Xiu gradually cleaned up the Li family's bloodline and replaced the entire Li family.
The picture is messy and hasty, and it is obvious that there is not much that can be remembered in the mind of the cultivator.
Until one day, the picture suddenly became clear.
Xiuzhen received news from the Xuanyang Sect that his junior sister failed to form an elixir when she was young and passed away in the sect.
On the same night, he was no longer in pain, but just looked up at the bright moon, feeling infinitely lonely.
Since then, he has practiced hard, full of profit calculations, and gradually lost his emotions.
The life of a cultivator was compressed into a two-hour-long movie, which I browsed through in a hurry.
However, Yu Xian is not interested in the love and hatred of the cultivators, he only cares about the spiritual stones.
"The location of your family's treasure house...has been found!"
"Damn it! The treasure house is empty!"
As the memory fragments of the cultivator were revealed, Yu Xian discovered that he had been deceived by the cultivator.
Over the years, the cultivator has been practicing hard, and most of the family's income has been transformed into his increased mana and his golden elixir magical power. There are not many spiritual stones left at all.
Just as Xiuzhen said, the Xiu family is honored and has the greatest prestige because of him, so it is natural for him to take and take away from the family.
Wait until Yu Xian opened his eyes angrily.
Outside the fog prison formation, Li Liangyu has been waiting for a long time.
"Sir."
When Li Liangyu saw the formation opened and Xiuzhen lying at the feet of the young master, not knowing whether he was alive or dead, Li Liangyu couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. He bowed and presented the beast-control cards of the old ape king and the queen bee with both hands.
"Thank you so much for your help, Young Master, so that Liangyu can avenge this great revenge. From now on, Liangyu will go through fire and water for Young Master, even if he dies!"
Yu Xian casually put away the beast control card, pointed to the cultivator at his feet and said:
"You can announce the death of Master Xiu to the outside world, and your next task is to take charge of the Li family again.
At this point, Fellow Daoist Wu will assist you. "
Patriarch Wu walked out from behind Yu Xian with a smile and said hello to Li Liangyu.
"Little friend Li, we meet again."
He had been in the formation just now, and Wan Tianqiu was with him as a reserve force.
Although both of them are fake elixir monks and their combat power is not as good as that of ordinary golden elixirs, they can still fight together.
When they were knocked down by Patriarch Lin with a few moves, it was not that they were too weak, but that Patriarch Lin was too strong.
However, the cultivator was rich in experience, and he escaped decisively at the first opportunity. He also used the secret treasure to tear apart the soul flag field, forcing Yu Xian to take action with his true body and suppress it with the shocking eyes, so the two of them were not used.
"It turns out to be Senior Wu."
Li Liangyu knew that Patriarch Wu was here to seize power, but he still saluted politely:
"Liangyu is worried that he has little experience and doesn't know what to do. With Senior Wu's help, Liangyu can relax."
After that, Li Liangyu and Patriarch Wu walked out of the formation, flew over your house, and said loudly:
"The Li family is rebellious, and the old thief who repaired the relationship has been brought to justice! I, Li Liangyu, the twenty-third generation grandson of the Li family, take charge of the Li family again today!"
The sound spread throughout Qiufeng Mountain, causing an uproar.
At the county magistrate's house, Magistrate Yan, who had been paying close attention to him secretly, was filled with astonishment.
"Fellow monk is dead?!"
In his eyes, the battle between Xiuzhen and Li Liangyu would not stop within ten or twenty years.
The final result will most likely be nothing, and there will be nothing anyone can do.
And he played both sides, taking the opportunity to weaken the two families and completely control Qiufeng County. Since then, he has achieved full political achievements, prospered in officialdom, promoted the sect, and competed for the infant soul.
It turned out that only a few hours had passed.
Li Liangyu went deep into Tao's house alone and escaped without being embarrassed. He actually killed Xiu Zhenren.
When he released his spiritual consciousness, he saw the undisguised Patriarch Wu next to Li Liangyu, and instantly realized that he was also a golden elixir monk.
"There is actually a foreign Jindan Daoist?"
At this moment, Magistrate Yan remembered the mysterious young master Yu Xian who was the only one close to him in the data three years after Li Liangyu's return.
"It's him!"
Magistrate Yan immediately understood everything.
Li Liangyu fled to Qiufeng City. He was originally a bereaved dog, but he met the mysterious Mr. Yu and was supported by him, so he returned to fight with the cultivators.
Now he is secretly helping Li Liangyu to ambush Master Xiu and take back the Li family.
Is it just a coincidence, or is it an ulterior motive?
Such a miracle was achieved in just three years.
That is a real Jin Dan!
Magistrate Yan thought for a moment, took out a jade slip, and wrote on it with his spiritual consciousness as a pen.
Soon, he wrote down everything that happened here, especially Yu Xian's identity.
But when he was about to send the jade slips out through sect channels, he hesitated.
"No, if you really had ulterior motives, how could your identity be exposed so easily? Could it be that Mr. Yu was just a cover-up, deliberately being seen by others.
However, it is also possible that people are just passing by and will leave after playing for a while, so they reveal their identities openly.
My petition will definitely bring about the consequences of the sect’s supervisory monks.
It is easier to ask God than to give him away. If nothing is found out, or Mr. Yu is gone by the time they come, it will get me into trouble.
Once the sect supervisor is dismissed, he will have to take credit back. If he doesn't have credit, he will most likely have me stabbed.
It's not like I've done nothing in Qiufeng County these past years. I've done nothing good and made myself a mess.
It’s inappropriate, it’s inappropriate, I’ll wait until I investigate clearly first. "
Magistrate Yan put away the jade slips, thought for a moment, and prepared to wait and see.
If Mr. Yu and the foreign Jindan master are here to miss each other and refuse to leave, it won't be too late for him to react.
Anyway, as a disciple of Xuanyang Sect, the fire cannot burn him.
