Chapter 394 Li Encheng

An Yuyan congratulated him and said:

"My subordinates discovered two mineral veins in the lake. One is [Wuhui Lingmolybdenum], which is a fetal breath level spiritual mine with a reserve of about 400,000 kilograms. The other is Qi training level [Mi Shuihan Iron], which is roughly There are two hundred thousand catties.”

His face was full of excitement and he said:

"These two mineral veins are not small, enough to last for hundreds of years!"

Li Yuanping was shocked by the news from his mouth, and joy appeared on his face for a while. He immediately grasped the key and then asked:

"[Wu Huiling Molybdenum] and [Ni Shui Han Iron] are not as good as [Qingwu] for immediate use. I'm afraid it needs to be refined, right?"

An Yuyan nodded repeatedly and replied:

"[Wuhui Spiritual Molybdenum] is a spiritual essence commonly used in weapon refining. It is extracted from the mine. It only takes one hundred kilograms to get a finger-sized powder, but it can be sold for one spiritual stone!"

He took out two stones from his arms. One was earthy yellow and almost gray, with circular lines all over it. The other was very beautiful, with blue and white fine lines intertwined, like a gem. He handed it to Li Xiyao's hand and continued:

"[Ni Shui Cold Iron] is even more precious. This mine is a little barren, but it can extract fist-sized cold iron from two hundred kilograms. It is even more valuable, worth several spiritual stones..."

"good."

After hearing this, Li Yuanping nodded. The Li family has no shortage of manpower now. The fetal breath monks in each mountain are very relaxed. With these two veins, the refining work can be arranged and the monks can be spared. Idle.

So he said again:

"Li Wushao also showed you how much ore can be mined every year with the help of these monsters?"

An Yuyan replied:

"[Wu Hui Ling Molybdenum] should be able to produce more than a thousand kilograms per year. As for [Ni Shuihan Iron], it is particularly hard. Qi training monks have to dig it themselves. It is considered good to produce two hundred kilograms per year."

‘I can earn more than ten spiritual stones every year, nearly a hundred in five years...it’s very good. ’

Li Yuanping smiled slightly, [Wu Huiling Molybdenum] is very common, and can be used in most fetal breathing instruments, so it is okay to sell it. [Ni Shui Han Iron] is very precious, so it is best to store it for home use.

He made a decision in his heart and arranged for the Yu Ting Guards to follow An Yuyan down. He said to Li Xi'an on the side:

"Go and call Li Wushao. If you want to instruct the monster at the bottom of the lake to mine, Hook Snake will need to take action."

Li Xi'ao nodded and left. Li Yuanping calculated carefully:

"The farmed spirit fish will gradually produce a harvest in a few years, and at least a dozen minerals of the two types of minerals will be produced every year. This way, Xi'e will not have to be financially strapped to run the family in the future."

If he didn't need the spiritual stones, Li Yuanping would really be unwilling to sell these minerals. Once he had a refiner in his family, the price of the magical weapons would be very different.

The Li family also had several weapons-refining magic books, but they were obtained from casual cultivators and were not easy to use. They had to use the fire veins to refine the fetal breath magic weapon, which was very expensive and they had no fire veins, so they had no choice but to give up.

Li Yuanping just silently calculated:

"I don't know if the weapon refining inheritance in Meng Taizhi's hand can be obtained... Judging from his appearance, he can refine weapons without fire veins. The old man is only a few years old, so it shouldn't be difficult to get it..."

He recalled Meng Taizhi's words and expression just now, and was a little uncertain.

…

lake shore.

Meng Taizhi went down this way and rode the wind back to the shore. The lights on the hut on the shore were still on. He pushed the door open and walked in. Meng Zhuoyun was practicing silently.

"Yun'er."

Meng Zhuoyun has a good appearance, and his skin is as white as snow. He looks very young. He only practices on the cave. When he saw Meng Taizhi coming in, he whispered:

"How is the Li family? Although Xiao Yuansi has a relationship with the eldest father, he is a noble son and has difficulty understanding the evils of the world..."

Meng Taizhi shook his head and said in a deep voice:

"Although the Li family is a rising star, the discipline is very strict. The ancestor of the Li family may be an old-fashioned Taoist priest. He is tied up and down tightly. There is also a letter from the ancestor of the Xiao family, so he will definitely not harm us."

Meng Taizhi recalled for a while and then said:

"I have never seen Li Yuanjiao. Then Li Yuanping is a person. It's a pity... I saw that his face was pale and his breath was dying. He must have been seriously injured. I'm afraid he may not have a few years to live."

Meng Zhuoyun frowned slightly and asked with some confusion:

"The Li family, a family of sword immortals, why is the head of the family so miserable? There must be something wrong. Demonic cultivators have been wreaking havoc for many years. I don't believe that his family doesn't have secret techniques!"

Meng Taizhi shook his head and touched the long beard on his chin:

"His family is cruel to monks, but has a lot of compassion for mortals. Because he is burdened by worldly morality, he refuses to use secret methods to save his family. He just watches such a person die with cold eyes. It is a pity."

After a pause, the old man continued:

"That's fine. This person is very capable. If he can manage his family, even though we don't care about his family, we will inevitably be worried."

Meng Zhuoyun was confused and said curiously:

"Is there such a thing? Can the foundation-building monk Li Yuanjiao not tell the difference between the lives of hundreds of unrelated mortals and a trustworthy and capable brother? The battle between immortals and demons has lasted for thousands of years. There is such a family."

"I have long heard in the East China Sea that there are many conservative sects and families in the country who are clinging to their old ways. I only thought it was a joke. I never thought that such a thing really happened!"

"It's better to say less!"

Meng Taizhi gave some advice and said:

"I have made it clear to Li Yuanping that there should be no problem in exchange for the inheritance of alchemy. It's just that Li Yuanping refuses to believe me and has no intention of recruiting me yet. After my death, I'm afraid I will make you wander across the country."

With a look of regret on his face, he continued:

"I originally thought that the Li family was prospering, Li Tongya was a famous swordsman, Li Yuanjiao and Li Qinghong were very talented, and it was even rarer to have successors. It would be the best if I could invest in this family, but it's a pity that he doesn't believe me."

Meng Zhuoyun said nothing, and Meng Taizhi sighed:

"If Li Yuanping still refuses to believe me when my life is approaching, I will no longer hide my clumsiness and give this weapon cultivation level to the Li family. I only ask that you go and learn one or two secret alchemy techniques from Li Ximing. Have the capital to settle down and live."

"The rule of Qingchi Sect is quite similar to that of Donghai. It's safer for you to go to Jinyu Sect."

Meng Zhuoyun listened, holding a dark golden bronze mirror with his white and tender fingers, and said in a low voice:

"It's a pity that my husband was killed by that wandering cultivator. Otherwise, with his methods, why would I have to live such a wandering life."

"Stop talking...stop talking..."

Meng Taizhi sighed repeatedly, with a look of despair on his face, and replied:

"Who could have imagined that a monk at the peak of his qi training would be killed by a small cultivator at the early stage of his qi training! He actually died when he met a casual cultivator on the way!"

The old man raised his head covered with white hair, tears streaming down his cheeks, and sighed:

"I regret... I shouldn't have provoked that Dragon Slayer! As a result, I ended up in the situation I am in today!"

Meng Zhuoyun looked cold and said in a low voice:

"I have nothing to regret. I will kill him sooner or later."

…

Qingchi Sect.

In the bamboo forest on Qingsui Peak, the boy in feathers sat cross-legged. The breeze blew. He opened his eyes and a smile appeared on his face.

"[Zhaoxia Yuxing] is done!"

"Morning Glow Picking Dew Technique" is a technique that Qingchi has perfected for five hundred years. It has a complete set of various supporting techniques and is one of the best among the fourth-level techniques. Li Xizhi's practice of this method is one of them, and it is a lifting technique. .

It's a pity that this technique can only be practiced to the peak of foundation building. Which disciple of Qingchi Sect doesn't have the heart of Zifu? This method is not helpful for refining alchemy and refining weapons, so naturally few people practice it.

Li Xizhi's practice of this technique was looked down upon by many of his peers, but Li Xizhi never took it seriously and practiced on his own.

Immediately he stood up, and six-colored auras rose under his feet. They were colorful, holding him up and flying up. Li Xizhi was wearing the black feather coat given by Yang Xiaoer, and he really looked like a fairy.

After flying over Qingsui Peak for a while, he was very satisfied:

‘For leaping up close, there’s the ‘River Crossing Step’, and for lifting up and riding the wind, there’s ‘Zhaoxia Yuxing’. If you want to kill me, even if you’re at the peak of your Qi training, it’s very difficult. ’

'When the "Six Colors Xun Yuan Escape" is completed and I take a few talismans with me, there will be less danger that can kill me when I walk around. ’

He looked at the six-color energy surging under his feet and said with regret:

‘It’s a pity that this technique is good in every way, but it’s too eye-catching, it looks like a magical technique at first glance, and it’s not low-key enough. ’

Li Xizhi laughed because of his extremely unsatisfied mentality. He flew down and saw Yang Xiaoer coming up with a small storage bag in his hand.

She was worried about gains and losses earlier, but Li Xizhi always treated her gently. The girl slowly calmed down, smiling and looking at him.

"Husband, there is news from home!"

Li Xizhi quickly took it and checked with his spiritual sense. There were three jade boxes sealed inside. He read the small letter inside and remained silent.

Yang Xiaoer stepped forward and said softly:

"What do you mean?"

Li Xizhi fell back into the forest with her, held her hand, and whispered:

"I've finished my family affairs. I'm afraid I have to go to Fuchen Peak. If I can get in touch with him...after all, he is a Danshi at the pinnacle of foundation building."

Yang Xiaoer pursed her lips and said:

"Li Eun-cheng has an eccentric temper and has never succumbed to any faction... It's easy to apologize, but I'm afraid it won't be easy to get on his terms, and you'll be humiliated when the time comes..."

The Qingchi Sect is a five-hundred-year-old sect and a behemoth that dominates the Yue Kingdom. It is based on the two southern counties and the Qingchi Mountains. It penetrates the five gates to the east, suppresses the vibrant Changxiao Gate in its prime in the west, and Wangyue on the border. Li Xia and Li Xia were controlled by heavy taxes and massacres to seize blood. Each territory had clear powers and was extremely stable.

On the contrary, there are many factions within the Qingchi Sect, led by the Yuanxiu and Yuanwu sects, and more than a dozen small factions. The peak masters, elders, and real people are constantly competing with each other. Chi Zhiyun, the leader of the Qingchi Sect, is trying to maintain a balance among them.

"No, I still have to give it a try."

Li Xizhi thought carefully and replied:

"Nowadays, the Chi family in the sect is very thin. It is very difficult to rely on the Ning family to control the peaks. Facing the Yuanwu faction is already very difficult. What's more, the distribution of Donghuo Cave is uneven. The Yuanxiu faction has repeatedly provoked Chi Zhiyun. Most of them can’t care so much.”

"In the future, I will build a background within the Qingchi Sect and help my family gain a foothold in the Yue Kingdom. At least I will be treated as a dog by Qingchi instead of food. This is a great opportunity! Don't miss it!"

Yang Xiaoer looked at him worriedly, her ordinary eyebrows became vivid due to the tenderness in her eyes, and she said:

"But... Master's Yuan family belongs to the lineage of Master Bu Zi. My family has a sensitive status and never dares to form cliques... What you have done..."

"The ancestors of the Yuan family made mistakes in the early years and were driven out of the sect. Now they are almost dead. The Yuan family's reputation in the sect is getting worse every year. How many favors are there? Otherwise, Master would have introduced me to heaven." The person from Zifeng! ’

Li Xizhi knew in his heart that Yuan Tuan had hinted to him many times in private, but he did not dare to say it out loud, so he could only say:

"Don't worry, Master is also on the peak."

After hearing this, Yang Xiaoer knew that Yuan Tuan probably had the intention behind it, so she immediately stopped mentioning it and nodded in agreement.

Li Xizhi rode the wind out of Qingsui Peak, thinking twice about it.

"My uncle is valued by the real person in Yishan City and has a background in the Ning family. However, the real person Yuan Yuan has always been on his own in Yishan City and never cared about the affairs within the sect..."

Li Xizhi knew that the Ning family had a good impression of him, but he had never considered joining the Ning family in the most appropriate position:

'Once I establish a relationship with Li Encheng, everything will become clearer. My family wants to have its own voice in Qingchi... Then support the Ning family and become friendly with them, instead of directly joining the Ning family and becoming a vassal of the Ning family...'

He understood the huge difference, so he flew in the clouds for a while, and landed in front of Fuchen Peak. The Taoist boy from Fuchen Peak said:

"Excuse me, the immortal, are you asking for elixir? Do you have any advice?"

Li Xizhi didn't dare to put on airs, so he cupped his hands and said in a low voice:

"Li Xizhi of the Wangyue Lake Li family, come to visit!"

He never mentioned Qingsui Peak, but came to visit in the name of the Li family, which was a hint that if he couldn't knock the door open, he would have no choice but to give up and go to sleep.

The Taoist boy went up for a while, and the clouds and mist of the formation opened. When Li Xizhi landed on this peak, he saw that the ground was red, and he didn't know how many fire veins were buried underneath. The big rocks were jagged, and the palace in front was quite towering, like a huge giant. Cauldron.

He entered the hall respectfully. At the head of the room was a tall and thin old man, dressed in white robes. He was holding a white jade wine bottle and drinking. When he saw him, he frowned and said directly:

"Li family? I have never interacted with the nobles. Why do you want me?!"

Li Xizhi saw that he was very impatient, his heart sank, and he still said in a low voice:

"Xi Zhi has met the Peak Master. His disciple heard that there is a mountain in Wangyue Lake, and he often collects precious medicine for the Peak Master..."

Li Encheng was stunned for a breath, and then he suddenly realized:

"That's what happened."

Li Encheng's tall and thin cheeks moved and he frowned while drinking. Li Xizhi replied:

"This Shanyue has broken through to the late stage of foundation building. He was arrogant for a while. He entered my family's territory a few days ago and was killed by my family and the Yuan family. I came here to report this to the peak master!"

"What did I think it was!"

Li Encheng almost forgot about this person. He smelled of alcohol and waved his hands and said:

"Just kill him. It won't have any impact at all. I just spend more time looking for the treasure. I also asked you to run away. Go back!"

Li Xizhi said quickly:

"My family feels deeply guilty and hopes to make amends to the Peak Master..."

"oh?"

Li Encheng took a sip of wine and said with a smile:

"What do you mean?"

Li Xizhi bowed down and said respectfully:

"My Li family is close to the shore of the lake, with Mount Dali behind us, the desert to the west, Neng as far as Xu Zhao in the north, and the seaport in the east. There are opportunities to acquire all kinds of spiritual objects. If the peak master needs it, my family can do it for the peak master! "
