Chapter 441 Breakthrough

Lu State.

After Qi Dongqiang said goodbye to Li Xunting, he did not stay in Qing State and returned directly to Lu State.

Not long after he returned to his ancestral land, he went to see two monks from the royal family of the Lu Kingdom who were in the late stage of alchemy.

According to seniority, these two are ancestor-level elders to Qi Dongqiang. Both old monsters have lived for more than four hundred years.

"Ancestor, something is wrong with them in the Qingguo Immortal Cultivation World."

"Tell me something."

"Yes." Qi Dongqiang nodded and quickly talked about his experience during this period, "Qingguo Xianlin County, according to the intelligence, Tianchuan Mountain should be the one controlling it now, but this time I took action to stop it. Mine is Li Xunting, an alchemy monk from the royal family of the Qing Dynasty..."

Qi Dongqiang first briefly narrated the content, and then told the story in detail.

The most important point is that Li Xunting of the Li family appeared in Xianlin County, preventing his next move.

"...I have thought that the royal family of Qing Kingdom should have reached some cooperation with Tianchuan Mountain, but if they want to cooperate, it should be Qingfeng Valley."

"The Qing royal family may have reached cooperation with all three sects." One of the ancestors of the Lu royal family, Qi Xianhe, said.

"This?" Qi Dongqiang heard this and thought about it, but he still felt that the possibility of this was very small, "Cooperate with the three sects and give up the benefits. The comprehensive strength of the Qing Kingdom royal family is not inferior to the previous Zhao Kingdom royal family, so do this Totally unnecessary."

"You are right. The Qing royal family's comprehensive strength is indeed strong. Normally there is no need to do this. But this Li Qianqing is not a simple person. I think he is overconfident in himself."

Among the Qing royal family, whose information is most worth checking, it must be Li Qianqing.

The senior officials of the Lu royal family, especially the two old men, knew Li Qianqing very well.

Based on the comprehensive analysis of all the investigated information, they all have a feeling that maybe the next monk in the Three Small Kingdoms area to break the elixir and become a baby will be this Li Qianqing.

"...If that's the case, ancestor, what should I do now? Should I continue to lurk in Xianlin County of Qingguo?"

"No need." Qi Xianhe shook his head in denial, "Under the circumstances that the Qing Kingdom royal family has reached cooperation with Tianchuan Mountain, it is a waste of time for you to go there. It is better to do other things with this time."

"Yes, because of the intervention of the Qing Kingdom royal family, we want to penetrate into the Qing Kingdom's immortality world, which is more difficult than before to penetrate into the Zhao Kingdom's immortality world." At this time, another late-stage alchemy-forming monk from the Lu Kingdom's royal family also spoke.

Both ancestors said that the plan was temporarily cancelled, and Qi Dongqiang didn't say much.

To be honest, when he faced Li Xunting before, even though he only said a few words, he felt a lot of pressure, and his feelings were always accurate, which showed that Li Xunting's strength should be as strong as the rumors said.

If he continues to do this task, he feels that he is not a suitable candidate, and at least a monk in the middle stage of pill formation must go there, so as to ensure his own safety.

There was no more task pressure, and after he finished saying what needed to be said, he withdrew.

…

The sixteenth year of Qingli.

Three years have passed since the last time Tianchuan Mountain needed support.

After the loss of a few Qi refining forces in Xianlin County, it has been very quiet in the past few years, and no forces continue to have contact with the Lu royal family.

Xiangshui County, Changqing Mountain.

The sky was covered with dark clouds, the sky and the earth were abnormal, and the aura was also abnormal.

The Li family monks who were busy with their daily affairs stopped what they were doing when they saw this situation.

After the family has more territory, in addition to recruiting some working monks, their daily affairs are still a lot more overall, but the spiritual stones and family contribution points they can obtain every year are also much more, and the cultivation resources are more abundant.

Even if you are a monk with four spiritual roots, it is easy to break through to the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining before the age of sixty if you work hard, but it is still very difficult for a monk with five spiritual roots, luck and hard work are indispensable.

"Is this...a family elder successfully forming a pill?"

"No, this is still different from the normal alchemy phenomenon." The monks in the family who had seen the alchemy phenomenon discovered after careful observation that this was quite different from the normal alchemy phenomenon.

"Ah...it's not the elders of the family who formed pills..."

"I've read about it in books... The thunder is muffled and the clouds are low... This should be the strange phenomenon of heaven and earth caused by the breakthrough of the second-level peak monster to the third level. It is very similar to the monk's formation of pills, but there are also differences."

"Third-order monsters...I know! I remember that my seventeenth-great-great-grandfather cultivated two late-stage second-order monsters. This should be one of them that succeeded in breaking through."

The family monks who knew more detailed information understood that this was the breakthrough of the second-level peak flame turtle in the mountain.

The news quickly spread among the monks in the family.

It didn't take long for the Li family monks to basically know that the monster flame turtle had successfully broken through and became a third-level monster.

Third-level monsters are equivalent to monks at the level of forming pills. If you calculate it this way, the Li family can be regarded as possessing five forms of pills.

As the royal family of the Qing Kingdom, the monks of the Li family were no longer as excited about adding a new force to their family.

This kind of thing is normal to them.

In Evergreen Mountain, Li Qianqing has appeared near the Flame Turtle Changshou.

Looking at the flame turtle in the pond, he quickly took out a transmission talisman.

Li Xingsheng is not in the Evergreen Mountains now. He is searching for the spiritual mine with the mutant gold-eating rat. The flame turtle will definitely notify him to come back after breaking through to the third level.

Li Qianqing and Li Xingsheng had talked a lot. He knew that if this flame turtle succeeded in breaking through the third level, Li Xingsheng would also fulfill his wish.

When Li Xingsheng was practicing to break through the late stage of foundation building, he was stuck for a long time, which resulted in him not even having the chance to break through to the Jindan stage.

After using the sound transmission talisman, Li Qianqing stood here quietly, waiting for the flame turtle to absorb the spiritual energy, and also waiting for Li Xingsheng to come back.

Calculating the time, Li Xingsheng's life span was not much left.

It was almost dusk.

Li Xingsheng took Shushu back to Changqing Mountain.

"Changming!" Li Xingsheng was very happy to see the flame turtle that had successfully broken through.

As his demon beast, the flame turtle Changming broke through from the peak of the second level to the third level. In a sense, it was also his success in breaking through the Jindan stage and becoming a Jindan cultivator.

"Master." The flame turtle Changming said.

Normally, a third-level monster beast can speak human language as long as it learns. As early as the second level, the Flame Turtle and Li Xingsheng basically communicated in this kind of language, but they could not speak at that time. After breaking through to the third level, they could speak normally after a little adaptation.

"Hahaha, very good! Changming, you really did not disappoint me." Li Xingsheng came to the Flame Turtle and touched the changed shell.

After breaking through from the peak of the second level to the third level, the touch feels different.

The main reason is that Li Xingsheng is in a very good mood.

"Thanks to the master's training, otherwise I would not have broken through to the third level so easily." At the second level, although the spiritual intelligence was a little weak, the Flame Turtle Changming remembered it very clearly. Li Xingsheng would baptize him at least once a year, which made its cultivation speed faster, and the probability of breakthrough was also increasing.

"I am just an auxiliary, it mainly depends on you."

Li Xingsheng did everything he could. If the Flame Turtle Changming was not strong, he would have no way.

Fortunately, the Flame Turtle did not disappoint him in the end.

"... Next, you have to guard this place well and listen to my uncle Thirteen. If possible, I hope you can break the bloodline restriction and go further." When he talked about the latter part, Li Xingsheng also talked about his hope for the future of the Flame Turtle.

The Flame Turtle is already a third-level monster, and its life span is close to that of ordinary Yuanying-level cultivators. Except for a few examples among the turtle-type monsters, the situation of other turtle-type monsters is similar to that of the Flame Turtle Changming.

At most, Changming has only been around for more than 300 years since its birth, and can still protect the Li family for more than 700 years in the future.

Although the Li family is very powerful now, a third-level monster is just icing on the cake, but where there is a third-level monster guarding, the family's Jindan cultivators will put less attention on this spiritual vein.

After entering the third level, the Flame Turtle Changming will not stay in Changqing Mountain forever.

"Master, you..." Hearing what Li Xingsheng said, as if he was telling his last wishes, the Flame Turtle was originally in a very good mood, but now it is a little bad.

He knew about the life span of human cultivators. He knew that Li Xingsheng, who was in the foundation building stage, didn't have much life span left, and it was impossible for Li Xingsheng to reach the elixir stage.

After thinking for a while, the flame turtle ignored some of Li Xingsheng's words and continued to speak.

"Break the bloodline... I will work hard." Just like human cultivators want to break through and become legendary immortals, monsters want to break the bloodline restrictions and reach the pinnacle of beast life.

If he can really break the bloodline restrictions once, then he will have a good chance to become a fourth-level monster. At that time, it will not be a problem for him, the flame turtle, to live for three thousand years.

"Shu Shu has broken the bloodline restrictions twice, I believe you can do it too."

"Jiji." Hearing Li Xingsheng mention himself, Shu Shu on his shoulder hurriedly called twice. Shu Shu was also very happy about the breakthrough of his fellow flame turtle.

Li Qianqing watched the communication between Li Xingsheng and the monster quietly without interrupting.

Li Xingsheng's beast control basically signed equal contracts, and such contracts can be terminated even by the monster.

A contract with less binding force is more challenging for a beastmaster.

A few years later, even if Li Xingsheng passed away, the effect of the contract would be lost, and the beasts he trained would follow the beastmaster's last wishes. If they wanted to cancel the contract and leave, they would have done so long ago.

If it was a master-servant contract, a beast like the Flame Turtle might leave directly after Li Xingsheng passed away. Even a master-servant contract would not let the beastmaster know what his beast was thinking.

Li Qianqing had seen many examples of monsters obeying on the surface.

These monsters all signed master-servant contracts, equal contracts, and he had never seen such a situation.

After signing the master-servant contract, the servant party could not cancel it.

As night fell, the Flame Turtle dived into the water, revealing its flaming tail. Only then did Li Xingsheng come to Li Qianqing.

"Uncle Thirteen."

"It's time to have a good rest." Li Qianqing said, and he had said this to Li Xingsheng before.

The cultivators in the family who cannot advance to the next level can all enjoy their old age. For example, even if the cultivators at the Qi Refining level do not work after the age of 100, the family will provide basic living resources every year. The cultivators at the Foundation Establishment level are provided with basic living resources after the age of 200.

The cultivators at the Jindan level are currently 450 years old, but the oldest Jindan cultivator, Li Qianqing, is only over 200 years old.

"Shushu and I are full of energy and can't stop at all, right, Shushu." As he said, Li Xingsheng turned his head and glanced at Shushu on his shoulder.

"Chiji."

Even if there was only one year left, Li Xingsheng felt that he had to do what he should do. Now the family was the royal family of the entire country, and many counties were under their control. The land there had to be simply checked to see if there were any spiritual mines.

Li Qianqing was about to say something, but Li Xingsheng spoke up immediately.

"Uncle Thirteen, we will allocate what to do in the last time. I know your good intentions, but resting is meaningless to me." He knew that Uncle Thirteen would continue to persuade him, so he interrupted him directly.

"Okay." In the end, Li Qianqing didn't say anything, just said what Li Xingsheng meant.

"By the way, Uncle Thirteen, you can pay more attention to the bubbles in the Bi Bo Lake. Maybe there will be good news later. It breaks the restrictions of blood."

This iron carp, Li Xingsheng still thinks it is not simple, even though the owner of the iron carp is no longer him.

"Yeah."

Li Qianqing nodded. Speaking of this iron carp, it is still the starting point of all his opportunities.

If it weren't for the collision of this iron carp, he would not have been able to find the cave and successfully build the foundation.

Without this incident, there would be no follow-up to a series of events.

The uncle and nephew chatted for half an hour, and Li Xingsheng left Changqing Mountain again with the mutant gold-eating rat to continue his unfinished business.

A few days later, the news that the Li family's second-level monster broke through the third level began to spread.

The speed of spread was still very fast, but the cultivators thought this was a very normal thing. The current Li family is the royal family of Qing Kingdom, and their reputation has been thoroughly established.

If it were other Jindan cultivation families, even if the Fengyongyu family had a third-level monster, it would be a very surprising thing.

They also knew that the Li family had a Tianlinggen cultivator named Li Zhonghao, who would become a Jindan cultivator in a short time.

In the current Qing Kingdom cultivation world, no cultivator regards the Li family as just a Jindan cultivator family that has been established for more than a hundred years.

Regardless, this matter is still worth discussing. This is a third-level monster. You should know that in the entire Qing Kingdom, except for the Shuiyun Sect near the north, there is no other Jindan forces. Now that the Qing Kingdom royal family has a third-level monster, Shuiyun Sect is not unique.

…

The eighteenth year of Qingli, mid-May.

Half a month later, it is the day agreed by Li Qianqing and Lu Shangqing.

Now it is almost time to set off for the Daming Kingdom.

At this moment, in the cave of the Changqing Mountain clan leader, Li Qianqing was thinking about another thing in his heart. After calculating, he couldn't help but muttered:

"It should be these few years."
