Chapter 1048 Return

The immortals and demons on the battlefield were almost all caught in a brutal fight. Because of the birth of the evil beast, the black earth, which had faded slightly, was once again covered with red and black blood.

The cultivators who soon realized that something was wrong left the battlefield without hesitation and fled to the Great Wall of Mountains and Rivers.

But what they never expected was that what was waiting for them was not an escape from death, but entering another dangerous situation - a real desperate place of death!

However, these had nothing to do with Li Zhirui, who was flying over the Northern Territory. With the golden eagle driving the spirit ship, he stayed quietly in the cabin to practice.

After all, the journey was long, and even if it was smooth sailing, it would take several years to return to Wanxian Mountain. It couldn't be wasted. Li Zhirui still hoped that he could break through as soon as possible, so he naturally had to seize the time to practice.

The golden eagle had no complaints or dissatisfaction about this. It wished that it would return to Wanxian Mountain the next moment, and then transfer their contract to the entire Li family, so that it would no longer be as nervous as before, worrying that it would be implicated and die suddenly.

For safety reasons, the spirit ship controlled by the golden eagle did not go deep into the North Territory. Most of the time, it flew close to the towering mountain.

This is a huge mountain range that stretches from the East Sea in the east to the West Sea in the west, stretching for hundreds of millions of miles. It is to separate the North Territory from the East Continent and the West Continent to prevent frequent exchanges.

Any creature that sees this mountain will be amazed at the strength and means of the ancient survivors.

That's right! This mountain range used to separate the two continents was created by the ancient survivors in order to keep their last place of residence.

For this reason, they also imposed restrictions, resulting in a thin spiritual energy in the mountain, which is a rotten land that both the immortals and demons look down on.

However, the North Territory finally failed to become a paradise for the ancient survivors. Although there was no large-scale invasion by the immortals and demons, some cultivators and demons took the initiative to establish sects and families in the North Territory.

Those ancient survivors particularly rejected these human forces. If they had not had some skills, they would have been driven out long ago.

Of course, in addition to their strength, the demon clan is more powerful, and those ancient descendants have spent most of their energy on dealing with the demon clan.

Perhaps because of flying in the mountains, the road was calm and there were no problems, which really made the golden eagle relieved.

Li Zhirui, who happened to be out for a rest, saw this scene and laughed, saying: "Are you so worried about encountering danger?"

"What's wrong with being able to return to Wanxian Mountain smoothly?" The golden eagle asked back.

Li Zhirui shook his head when he heard it, "Indeed, it would be great to be able to return safely and smoothly."

"But now, I have encountered a troublesome matter."

"Huh?"

The golden eagle was a little confused, turned around and looked around, and did not find what the trouble Li Zhirui was talking about was.

"Here it comes."

Li Zhirui, whose spiritual sense is much stronger than the golden eagle, can naturally sense a much larger range. He 'saw' a somewhat dim spiritual light, flying in their direction.

And not far behind him, there was another spiritual light chasing.

"Should we avoid them in advance?" Although the golden eagle didn't see them, it believed that Li Zhirui would not lie about such things.

"Well, go a little south and don't meet them."

Li Zhirui was not a nosy person, but was afraid of trouble, unless this matter was good for him!

But he didn't expect that the cultivator seemed to have identified them and adjusted his direction.

"Heh! Interesting."

Li Zhirui laughed and said, "Stop, he has already discovered us."

The other party was just a cultivator of the refining realm, but he could find them at such a long distance. It seems that he still has some skills.

"I am Yang Yekang from Jiubai Mountain. I have no choice but to disturb you rashly. I hope you will forgive me." The cultivator spoke quickly, fearing that Li Zhirui would drive him away.

Hearing him introduce himself, Li Zhirui raised his eyebrows slightly. Jiubai Mountain is one of the only three immortal forces in the northern region. The remaining two forces are Xuanbing Sect and Hanlian Bai Family.

As soon as Yang Yekang finished speaking, the spiritual light that was chasing him also showed its figure, and it turned out to be a cultivator.

And looking at the robes on their bodies, they were all disciples of Jiubai Mountain.

Li Zhirui, who originally didn't want to intervene, was even more unwilling to do so. Although the two were only cultivators of the Refining Void, he could easily solve them, but if he, an outsider, participated in this kind of internal struggle of the sect, he didn't know how many troubles he would cause.

Yang Yekang might be particularly good at observing people's words and expressions, and hurriedly said: "Senior, when I was training outside before, I found a sixth-level Baixiang Jade Lotus, so I was chased by Senior Brother He. I hope that the senior will save my life for the sake of the spiritual object."

As he spoke, he held a jade box in both hands and presented it to Li Zhirui.

Hearing the name of Qianxiang Jade Lotus, Li Zhirui immediately overturned his previous thoughts and decided to take care of this matter!

You know, this is a rare spiritual object that can continue to grow.

If it grows for a hundred years, it is only the second level, called the Ten Fragrance White Lotus; if it grows for a thousand years, it is the seventh level, called the Thousand Fragrance Jade Lotus.

If it can grow for three thousand years, it can break through the ordinary level and become a fairy-level spiritual object, called the Ten Thousand Fragrance Fairy Lotus!

Moreover, the lotus of the Thousand Fragrance Jade Lotus can heal wounds, the lotus seeds can improve the soul, and the lotus roots can increase mana, and the whole body is a treasure.

If Li Zhirui can get a hundred fragrance white lotus, he has enough confidence to cultivate a pond of white lotus, higher-level jade lotus, and even fairy lotus.

So Li Zhirui turned his hand and put away the jade box, which was considered to be agreeing to Yang Yekang's request.

The other cultivator saw this and cried out in his heart that it was not good. He quickly turned into a rainbow light and fled far away.

But this speed was still too slow for Li Zhirui. He easily caught up with him, and a vine whip appeared in his hand, knocking him to the ground.

"Ahem!"

The magic weapon on the cultivator prevented him from being seriously injured, but his current condition was also very bad. He lay on the ground with a weak breath, and his cough was accompanied by blood beads.

"Senior, for a Baixiang Jade Lotus, you offended the disciples of Jiubai Mountain? Aren't you afraid that Jiubai Mountain will settle accounts in the future?" In order to survive, the cultivator could only threaten the sect, hoping to intimidate Li Zhirui.

Unfortunately, Li Zhirui didn't care at all.

After all, when Jiubai Mountain made a move, he would leave the Northern Territory. In addition, there was a space to cover up the secrets of heaven, so Li Zhirui didn't have to worry about being found.

"Please spare my life, senior! I am willing to offer all my wealth." Seeing that the threat failed, he offered money and begged for mercy without hesitation.

Li Zhirui shook his head. Even if he killed him, the spiritual objects on his body would still belong to him, and it was not certain that the spiritual objects in this man's hand were comparable to the sixth-level jade lotus.

"I am a person who values ​​credibility. If you can produce a spiritual object better than the jade lotus, I will help you kill Yang Yekang."

The man's face froze. Although the Baixiang Jade Lotus was only the sixth level, this kind of spiritual object was extremely rare. How could he, a small cultivator of the Refining Void, produce such a precious spiritual object?

Li Zhirui said no more. The vine whip flew out of his hand and turned into a steel cable, instantly piercing his heart.

"This matter is over. I'm leaving first."

Li Zhirui took away the storage magic weapon on his body and asked the golden eagle to activate the spirit ship and leave.

Yang Yekang opened his mouth to say something, but finally swallowed it back and watched the spirit ship fly away.

"I didn't expect to get a jade lotus on this trip."

When Li Zhirui got the jade lotus, he sent it into the space and planted it in a pool. The jade lotus, which was originally a little haggard, soon recovered its vitality under the nourishment of the space.

"It looks like it should be able to be promoted to the seventh level soon."

The situation of the jade lotus has already shown some signs, and perhaps it will be able to go further within a hundred years.

In the following journey, there was no such good thing again, and even the shadow of the cultivator was not seen. It can be seen how poor the spiritual energy of this mountain range is! It is so rare that even those casual cultivators are unwilling to come.

Spring goes and autumn comes, and the biting cold wind in the north has whistled twice. Li Zhirui finally left the North Territory and entered the East China Sea.

The reason why he didn't go south directly and enter Dongzhou is that it is easy to get lost on those small paths, and he might be trapped in the mountain at that time.

Instead of doing this, it is better to enter the East China Sea first, and then go south and return to Wanxian Mountain.

After so many years of clearing by the immortals, the coastal area of ​​the East China Sea has completely become the territory of the immortals, and it is very safe.

After flying on the sea for more than a month, Li Zhirui finally returned to the Wanxian Mountain after a long absence.

"Rui Zu, you are back!"

When a patrolling tribesman first saw Li Zhirui, he couldn't believe his eyes and thought he was hallucinating. After confirming it several times, he realized that it was real and not an illusion.

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

Li Zhirui greeted him and entered Wanxian Mountain.

After not coming back for many years, he suddenly found that Wanxian Mountain was quite different from what he remembered.

The mountain became thicker and taller, and some of the trends and layouts on the mountain also changed significantly.

"Is it because the family cultivated a second seventh-level spiritual vein?" Li Zhirui guessed the reason.

But soon, many spiritual lights rushed towards him.

"Brother Jiu! You are finally back."

Da Qing and his companions were very excited. Although they knew that Li Zhirui was still alive through the fate card, it did not mean that he was safe.

"I haven't seen you for many years. You have improved a lot."

This sentence was not a polite remark, but the realm of Da Qing and his companions had indeed improved a lot.

"Are Feng Wu, Sheng Er, and Shuo Er not in the family?" After a brief greeting, Li Zhirui asked curiously.

"Sheng Er went out to practice a long time ago, looking for the opportunity to break through the fusion realm. Feng Wu and Shuo Er have always stayed in the family, but now only Feng Wu is at home, and Shuo Er is in charge of Wan Ling Island."

"Has there been no new fusion cultivators born in the family in recent years?"

"No, there are quite a few refining cultivators." Da Qing was also a little dejected.

It's a pity that Li Zhirui had changed his practice method a long time ago. If he was still practicing the "Wan Ling Sutra" now, Da Qing, Xiao Qing and others might have become several eighth-level spirit beasts now.

Without the benefits brought by the "Wanling Sutra", they would naturally face various bottlenecks if they wanted to break through, so they have not been able to move forward until now.

"It's okay. If you have any questions in the future, you can come to me to answer your questions." Li Zhirui comforted him.

"Has anything major happened around the family in recent years?"

"The Zhang family and the Qingzhu Sect fought again to compete for more land, but the two sides were evenly matched and neither of them gained an advantage."

Da Qing thought for a while and said, "The sea tribe began to stir again a few years ago. Everyone was worried about the invasion of the sea tribe, but it has not happened yet."

Li Zhirui nodded, and then asked about the development of the family in recent years.

"Let Taiyao tell you about this."

Li Zhirui knew this clan leader. After all, he was the first clan leader of the family to reach the level of Lianxu, and the only female clan leader.

"According to the growth of the family over the years, the land in the east has extended a lot towards the sea, and at the same time, all the forces between Wanxian Mountain and Wanling Island have been conquered, connecting the two places together."

"At the same time, in order to open up more space for the family, we have been developing the northern mountains in recent years. Now several fairy cities have been built, and there are more than 100,000 mortals living there."

Hearing this, Li Zhirui raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect that the family would develop this mountain range.

Although the spiritual energy is thin, it is also because of this that it is difficult to breed monsters naturally. In addition to living in the mountains, which is more troublesome, it is more suitable for mortals to live!

"Perhaps, there is no need to pass on the Humane Dynasty method that I got before?" Li Zhirui murmured to himself.

The reason why he wanted to get the method was to protect the secular clan members, but now he can do it without it, so Li Zhirui doesn't want to pass on the Humane Dynasty method.

After all, he had personally witnessed the scene of the Daqian Dynasty overpowering the heroes. How many years had it been since the Human Dao Dynasty? It could stop a large number of cultivators and even win the battle.

If the secular family becomes stronger than the cultivator family in the future, a huge conflict will inevitably break out between the two sides!

Considering this, Li Zhirui changed his mind on the spot.

"Rui Zu, what were you talking about just now?" Li Taiyao didn't hear clearly, so he asked.

"Nothing, I just thought of something suddenly."

Li Zhirui smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work over the years. It's not easy to be the patriarch."

After so many years, Li Taiyao's cultivation has not improved much. Obviously, the position of the patriarch, which is full of trivial matters, has dragged her down.

"These are the spiritual objects and methods I collected during my training outside. Please count them and put them in the treasure house."

Li Zhirui waved his hand, and two hills of spiritual objects appeared on the ground.

Hiss——

Everyone present couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. With their cultivation, how could they not see the dazzling and brilliant treasure light?

It is conceivable how precious these spiritual objects are, and the number is also very large.

In fact, Li Zhirui just took this opportunity to take out some high-level spiritual objects that the family did not have, so that the family would also have these spiritual objects in the future. (End of this chapter)
