Chapter 182 Recovery

"War elephant tramples!" The giant elephant puppet with a height of two feet raised its two thick front feet, and then fell suddenly. The huge vibration of the ground made seven or eight second-level flame wolves almost unable to stand still. And the white tiger puppet rushed out quickly and killed two or three flame wolves one after another. With its iron tail thrown out, a third-order flame wolf flew tens of feet away in the air, howling. At this time, with the strength of Lu Xiaotian's spiritual consciousness, he is very proficient in controlling the fourth-order puppets. This third-order puppet is nothing to worry about.

Seeing that the two third-order puppets that Lu Xiaotian took out were so vigorous, everyone was overjoyed. Although they were just puppets, their defensive power was much higher than that of Yanlang. In the next step, he was extremely agile, able to advance and retreat freely, and killed several flame wolves in the blink of an eye. What's more important is that the aura of several third-level flame wolves has been completely suppressed by the puppets. Zhao Yuanjun and Zhao Li also looked shocked, and pulled out their hands to deal with those second-order flame wolves. Although there were a lot of flame wolves at this time, their high-end combat power was obviously not as good as the two huge puppets at the peak of third-order. After being killed six or seven in a row, the Flame Wolf saw that there was no hope of winning, howled for a while, and fled away into the distance in a panic.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, it turns out that you are the one who hides the truth. Two puppets at the peak of the third rank can easily sweep away monsters below the fourth rank. With fellow Daoist Lu and fellow Daoist Zhao leading the formation, we can rest easy on this trip to the Diyan Mountain." .”

Looking at the corpses of flame wolves all over the floor, the fat monk rubbed his hands and said excitedly. Before, he thought that his life would be difficult to save, but he didn't expect the situation to turn around like this in the blink of an eye. Not to mention recovering one life, and the materials on the seven-headed flame wolf can be distributed, which is really profitable.

"You guys, deal with the bodies of the flame wolves. Fellow Daoist Zhao, are you interested in talking alone?" Lu Xiaotian ignored the fat monk's compliments, but looked at Zhao Yuanjun with burning eyes.

"I don't know what Fellow Daoist Lu is talking about, can't we talk about it here?" Zhao Yuanjun frowned.

"Of course it won't work. Is Daoist Zhao afraid that I will have some evil intentions for you? If you really want to, it doesn't make any difference to me where you are." Lu Xiaotian said with a smile that was not a smile.

The fat monk, Ding Shou and the others rushed to dispose of Yanlang's body, but they didn't hear clearly the conversation between the two. They couldn't afford to provoke people on both sides, and getting involved would be troublesome. It is wise for them to stay away from the centers of possible strife.

"Okay, then I'll have a private chat with Fellow Daoist Lu." Zhao Yuanjun's face was uncertain for a while, he was confident that he would have no problem dealing with a Tier 3 puppet, but Zhao Li was a bit worse, and Lu Xiaotian was right. Wrong, the other party really has some bad idea, the two of them are indeed invincible.

"Grandpa, I'll go with you." Zhao Li stared at Lu Xiaotian warily, fearing that Lu Xiaotian would make a move suddenly. They have seen this kind of thing too much in the world of cultivating immortals.

Lu Xiaotian took Zhao Yuanjun and his grandson and grandson together and did not leave Duoyuan, and cast a spirit shield to surround a few people to ensure that the voice of the speech would not be heard, Lu Xiaotian said straight to the point, "I am very interested in the method of hiding your cultivation, fellow Daoist Zhao. , I want to make a deal with you."

"If you want our skills, you are dreaming." Zhao Li glared at Lu Xiaotian angrily, dissatisfied, "Grandpa, don't listen to him, at worst, fight him, I don't believe that the two security puppets are really so powerful , can eat us steadily."

"Li'er, don't make trouble." Zhao Yuanjun grabbed his granddaughter, stared at Lu Xiaotian solemnly and said, "I don't know what fellow Daoist Lu plans to use in exchange. The old man has reached the state of Qi refining and great consummation, and you can't see the idle things." superior."

"Spiritual stones, pills, and even my puppets and puppets' control techniques, you can make a price." Lu Xiaotian said in a flawless manner.

"Including your Tier 3 puppet just now?" Zhao Li said with his eyes brightened.

"You can choose one. I will never hide the method of control." Lu Xiaotian nodded. It is undoubtedly worthwhile to exchange a third-level puppet for such a method.

"Li'er, the puppet technique is just a small way, and there are very few people in the major immortal sects who practice this technique. It is impossible for us to complete the foundation building with the puppet technique." Zhao Li was a little moved, but Zhao Yuanjun was How can the old Jianghu for many years narrow his eyes on a third-order puppet.

"Want to establish a foundation? Then you have to enter the sect of cultivating immortals. Through the Xiaobi in the sect of cultivating immortals, you can get the foundation pill. But with this girl's cultivation base and strength, I'm afraid she still can't do it. Xiao It is usually held every three to five years, and if you haven’t reached the level of Qi Refining and Great Consummation to participate in the competition, there is almost no hope, but I have some Wuhuadans here, if the girl is willing, you can use Wuhuadans in exchange.” Lu Xiaotian threw a bottle of twenty Wuhuadans to Zhao Yuanjun.

Zhao Yuanjun stared at the pill bottle closely, and after confirming that Lu Xiao hadn't done anything, he took it in his hand, opened it, and was shocked, "Extreme Wuhua Dan!" All of them are top quality. Such a bottle of elixir, with his status, even if he went to Wangyue City, it would be difficult to buy a lot of spirit stones. Such a bottle of elixir is at least worth more than a thousand low-grade spirit stones, and it is unbelievable that the young man in front of him took it out casually.

After Zhao Li heard her grandfather's exclamation, she almost snatched the pill bottle, the joy on her face even surpassed her grandfather's. With this bottle of Wuhua Dan helping her break through the bottleneck, she can reach the state of Qi Refining Dzogchen at a speed several times faster than usual. She and her grandfather usually go out on adventures, and most of their expenses are to earn spirit stones and spend them on pills. The bottle of elixir in front of him can't be bought even with flower spirit stones. Therefore, Zhao Li's eyes on Lu Xiaotian softened a bit, and it seemed that the other party was still somewhat sincere.

But now it's Lu Xiaotian who wants to ask them, Zhao Li rolled his eyes, and said slyly, "This hidden cultivation technique was passed down by my Zhao family ancestors, and it has never been leaked. Although your bottle of medicine is quite It’s worth a lot, but it’s still a bit lacking in thinking skills, I don’t think it’s better than this, plus you have a third-order puppet and the art of control, it’s almost the same, that white tiger looks pretty good to me, if fellow Daoist Lu can Take it out, and now we will give you the exercises."

In fact, when Lu Xiaotian took out Wu Huadan, Zhao Yuanjun was inclined to agree. Unexpectedly, Zhao Li sang such a song again, and Zhao Yuanjun thumped in his heart, lest his granddaughter's practice of raising prices from the ground would anger Lu Xiaotian. Even if it is obviously better than their current situation, they are willing to pay a high price to buy it. If there is a falling out, not to mention a hard fight, they will lose more than half of the time, and then it will really be a toast and no drinking.

"Deal!" Zhao Yuanjun was about to speak out, but was pleasantly surprised to hear that Lu Xiaotian agreed. It was really a great deal for his granddaughter to pick him up. Originally, he didn't approve of Zhao Li's practice of puppet art, but he was worried that his granddaughter would waste too much time on it and delay his own cultivation. But now with this bottle of Wuhua Dan, it can completely save her several years of time to enter the realm of Qi Refining Dzogchen. With the extra time, learning to control this third-order puppet is completely worthwhile, and their combat effectiveness has also soared a lot out of thin air.

Without further ado, Lu Xiaotian threw a storage bag to Zhao Li, which contained the white tiger puppet at the peak of Tier 3, and the method of controlling the puppet. He still has a few of these third-order puppets. In the eyes of Zhao Yuanjun and his wife, they are extremely precious puppets. For him, it doesn't make any difference if there is one more or one less.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Lu, for your success!" Zhao Li, who got the storage bag, was in a good mood, and also readily gave Lu Xiaotian a simple book score.

"Although this Tier 3 puppet is of great help to you, it is best not to use it until the critical moment. I also snatched it from someone else. If the enemy sees it, it will cause death. Maybe." Lu Xiaotian didn't know what the other party was thinking, and after receiving the book score, he reminded him with a half-smile.

"Thank you for the reminder, Fellow Daoist Lu, I will keep it in mind." Zhao Yuanjun saluted Lu Xiaotian respectfully this time. The transaction has been completed. It stands to reason that there is no need for Lu Xiaotian to add such a sentence. malicious.

The fat monk, Ding Shou, and Taoist Xu finished dealing with the body of Yanlang, and when they saw Lu Xiaotian, Zhao Yuanjun and his grandson returning in a group, they were unconsciously relieved. Without these two masters sitting in charge, they would not dare to stay here again. Stay near Diyan Mountain where there are four crises.

Two months later, Lu Xiaotian has already cultivated the "Breathing Containment Technique" to the third level. The entire breath-holding technique has only three levels, and the ancestors of the Zhao family who created the breath-holding technique are very remarkable. It is not difficult to cultivate, and it is completely impossible for monks in the foundation establishment period to find out his cultivation base by cultivating to the third level. As for whether the monks in the golden core period can see it, the ancestor of the Zhao family is not sure. If this technique is complete, there should be no major problem, although the ancestor of the Zhao family also wants to continue to create this The subsequent part of the method points out some very important ideas.

It's just that the ancestor of the Zhao family was originally a foundation-building cultivator with a promising future, but his lifespan was wasted on this exercise. Naturally, Lu Xiaotian will not repeat the same mistakes. The technique of concealing his cultivation is just a small way, and advanced Jindan is the way, so how can he abandon the basics and chase after the last.

For more than two months in a row, their team wandered around the outskirts of Diyan Mountain, mainly the fat monk who hunted a fire bat from time to time, and a flame wolf was already very satisfied. Zhao Li is busy practicing and practicing the art of puppet control, while Lu Xiaotian is practicing "Breathing Containment Technique" and healing his injuries, and has no intention of continuing to go deep into the Flame Mountain.

The last ray of lightning power remaining in the meridian was also eliminated, Lu Xiaotian seemed to feel a buzzing in the dantian, and the pure magic power broke through a layer of barriers without any hindrance like a spring.

"This is the second level of foundation building?" Lu Xiaotian himself seemed a little unbelievable. The foundation building period is no more difficult than the Qi refining period, and it is much more difficult to improve one level of cultivation. Originally, Lu Xiaotian thought that it would be very good to upgrade to one level in three to five years. Even breaking through the first floor in ten years, compared to the nearly three hundred years of longevity of the foundation-building monks, this speed is not slow in Lu Xiaotian's opinion. Even though he had never stopped taking Peiyuan Pill, this speed of advancement was beyond his expectations.

Could it be because of the lightning power in his body? After thinking about it, Lu Xiaotian only thought of this possibility. While constantly eliminating the power of lightning in his body, his mana has also been tempered. In addition, after practicing "Horizontal Golden Body", the physical body continued to become stronger, and now the injury has fully recovered. Without the power to restrain the magic power in the body, the magic power that had been suppressed for too long in the dantian suddenly spewed out like a spring, breaking through the original cultivation level all of a sudden, and this is the only way to explain it.

It can be regarded as a blessing in disguise, it took more than a year before and after, the injury was completely healed, and the cultivation base gained a lot of strength, Lu Xiaotian spit out a dirty breath, and he was in a good mood.

Just as Lu Xiaotian got up from his seat, a powerful breath came from a distance. Everyone looked up in surprise, and saw a slightly fat middle-aged woman in black coming with a sword. On the huge flying sword, there were five other monks, who should be in the Qi refining stage.

Master Foundation Builder! The faces of everyone present changed, and they could only hope that the other party was just passing by, but the fact was that the woman in black landed directly in front of them.

"Who are you, how did you come out near the Diyan Mountain?" The woman in black asked directly with no expression on her face.

These people present look at me and I look at you. After a while, Zhao Yuanjun stood up cautiously, bowed his hands and saluted, "Senior Rin, we were all just ordinary casual cultivators at the invitation of the Xiao family in Chixia County. , come to check the disaster situation, see if we can help the millions of people living in Chixia County, and relieve the people from their upside down."

"Jie Min Yu Dao Xuan?" The woman in black sneered, she was an immortal cultivator, so she would not believe such nonsense that Zhao Yuanjun said.

"Now the area around Diyan Mountain is taken over by the Zhou family. You loose cultivators, come with me to the Zhou family's camp and obey the unified command of the Zhou family. If you resist, you will be shot!"

Zhao Yuanjun and the others looked at each other in blank dismay, but the woman in black was a foundation-building cultivator, and she couldn't tolerate their opposition at all. The situation was stronger than others, the fat monk, Taoist Xu especially obeyed, and without saying a word, she went to the black Clothed woman's flying sword.

After a little thought, Lu Xiaotian stepped onto the flying sword. To have a foundation-building cultivator like the woman in black, it seems that the Zhou family is also a large-scale immortal cultivating family. The opponent is so powerful that they even want Qi-refinement cultivators like them As cannon fodder, let's see what medicine is sold in Zhou's gourd this week. The effect of this breath restraining technique is not bad, the woman in black can't see his depth, and others treat him as a monk in the Qi refining period, so he can fish in troubled waters.

It was probably the first time for the fat monk and others to experience this feeling of flying in the air. While they were afraid of the woman in black, they also had a strange expression on their faces. It made the original Qi-refining monks beside the woman in black look down upon her.
