Chapter 870 Meeting

Zongquan Island.

The sea water of Zhuluhai is intertwined with green and red, which is particularly beautiful under the blue sky. Two fishing boats drift quietly on the sea, with their light yellow sails set up and flying towards the sea where seagulls gather.

Bright light gathered on the ceiling, and a man in a white-gold robe descended in the light and emerged in front of the formation. The people on the island raised their heads and looked curiously.

Zongquan Island has been peaceful for so many years, living and working in peace and contentment. Relying on the anemone medicine, the fishermen even dared to drive boats around and fish at will, so they were not afraid of the monks. Li Ximing glanced at it and shuttled into the main hall.

An old man in white clothes with a wrinkled face and sparse beard and hair was lying on the desk, his head lowered, as if he was extremely tired. It was not until the sky appeared in front of the hall that the old man woke up from a dream, then he jumped up and threw himself on the ground, shaking as if Sifting the chaff, he said:

"Meet the supernatural! Meet the real person!"

This is Zong Yan, who governs this place, an adopted son who practices qi. He is very old now. He grew up on Zongquan Island. He has experienced the situation of being unprotected and is in awe of Gao Xiu, let alone a real person. Suddenly he knelt firmly on the ground.

Li Ximing only took out his master's token from his sleeve, threw it into his hand, and ordered:

"Go and invite the crown prince here."

Zong Yan quickly turned around, picked up the jade talisman placed on the table, crushed it, and knelt on the ground again. Li Ximing asked:

"How is Zongquan doing now?"

Zongyan quickly replied:

"Thanks to the blessing of the master's family, two immortal seedlings were born and sent to the lake for further training. I just want to see if...one of them is willing to come back in two years..."

Although Zongquan Island is much better than before, it is still a dull place compared to Wangyue Lake. Unless the lake sends direct descendants to guard it, no monk is willing to come here. In recent years, it has been hard to find a few talented people. They were all sent to Yuting on the lake, and they have never mentioned coming back.

These few people were too shy to mention Zongquan, and the Li family had not disclosed Zongquan Island and had been practicing on the lake. Li Ximing shook his head and replied:

"Don't worry, they will all come back."

In fact, for Li Zhouwei, Zongquan Island is really safer than Wangyue Lake. If a breakthrough is made here, Zongquan Island will inevitably undergo earth-shaking changes, and the spiritual veins will definitely be incomparable to the past. Li Ximing said this just now, who knows Zong Yan misunderstood, kowtowed quickly and said in shock:

"This...this is not an accusation...the children...are very good to the family..."

Li Ximing was stunned, shook his head with a smile, and did not mention anything about Li Zhouwei. He casually chatted with him for a while, listening to him talk about how Li Yuanjiao saved Zong Quan back then, and finally saw the bright light falling from the sky and falling in front of the palace.

The bright light dissipated and turned into a golden-eyed young man wearing golden-white scale armor and a mysterious jade bottle tied around his waist. When he arrived in front of the palace, his eyes lit up and he saluted:

"Minghuang has met the real person! Congratulations to the real person for improving his magical powers..."

Li Ximing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him, walked quickly to him, shook his head and smiled:

"Look...why are you so polite...come on, come on..."

Zong Yan very wisely led the door out, and the formation was isolated. Li Ximing knew that Li Zhouwei must have scanned it with an immortal mirror before approaching Zong Quan, so he spoke boldly and just sighed:

"Don't say anything about the real person. You fought out of the lake and you were able to kill Situ Mo. Apart from this big harm, I was embarrassed all the way... If Changxiao hadn't been intercepted halfway, I would have been scattered to the outer sea in the sky. went."

"It can be considered a blessing in disguise. After a lot of hard work outside, I healed my injuries. My cultivation level didn't drop too much, but I got the Zifu True Fire and became friends with Jiuqiu..."

Li Zhouwei didn't even dare to say that. Even he, seeing that Li Ximing was safe and sound, and even getting a lot of benefits, finally breathed a sigh of relief, held out a jade box with both hands, and replied:

"The real person is the one who saves the clan. The junior just escaped with his life under cover, but he used the clan's most precious spiritual sword without offering sacrifices. I apologize..."

Li Xi knew clearly that there was a [Green Ruler] inside, so he took it gently and replied:

"nonsense!"

Li Zhouwei didn't finish speaking. He waited for Li Ximing to accept the green ruler and then said:

"As for Chang Xiao being intercepted halfway, it was Master Qinghong who took action..."

Li Ximing never expected to hear Li Qinghong's name. He was shocked, surprised and happy, and replied:

"Aunt? Aunt Qinghong has become the Zifu? No wonder there were heavy rains and thunder that day. Changxiao was so vicious and powerful, but she escaped unscathed... Is she a dragon?"

Li Zhouwei nodded and said softly:

"Exactly, in the battle in the thunder path cave, the master killed all the peers of the thunder method in the world, climbed to the top, transformed into the thunder body after the dragon attribute swallowed the thunder, and became the spiritual cultivator of the Purple Mansion with Dongfang Heyun."

"It's a pity that she can't move lightly. Now she has drawn a sea outside the reef sea, called Liehai, guarding the Leichi. At that time, the real person was fighting with Changxiao all the way, and she came to help when he passed the outer sea!"

Li Ximing didn't know how to respond. He just closed his eyes, choked a little, and whispered:

"You can explain it to the boss!"

Li Qinghong's news is undoubtedly the biggest good news since the Zifu. Li Zhouwei also smiled, letting Li Ximing digest it for a while, and then whispered:

"Now that I think about it, Dongfang Heyun became associated with my family early on. It's hard to say that he knew that such a thing would happen in the future... to establish a good relationship with his colleagues... After all, this person has the same lifespan as the Dragon King. Don't look at the fact that most dragons can control him. This man has a lot of secrets.”

When Li Ximing heard this, he was horrified and asked:

"If this is the case, my aunt is already involved in the many arrangements behind the thunder-eating incident involving the dragon genus, and she will definitely not be able to stay out of it... It's no wonder that she can't contact her family. If my family gets involved in this matter... her family will be exterminated. matter."

Li Zhouwei's voice gradually became lower and he said again:

"As for the lord in Jiangbei... he is Emperor Taizu."

"Emperor Taizu?!"

"Li Qianyuan!"

Li Zhouwei's expression was low, and he repeated what Dongfang Lieyun had said one by one. Li Ximing was shocked and stunned for a long time. Finally, he suddenly realized and said sideways:

"No wonder... no wonder Ting Lan told me not to go back despite the many troubles in Jiangnan... no wonder Big Owl Kui Temple told me not to interfere! It's not because of the sun's dominance at all, it's just my family's identity trouble!"

One thing after another appeared in his mind, and he said calmly:

"Emperor Taizu is really unconscious? But Mingyang Yiyi, a high-blood descendant, even if he is unconscious, how can he not be aware of the blood of his descendants?"

"Chen Yang... Chen Yang is also of Li blood... His blood is even very close. When he went to Jiang'an, Zhenjun regarded him as a good character at a glance. Could it be because of this? Naturally, he has a natural affection... "

After Li Zhouwei heard what he said, he frowned and replied:

"In this case...every family will see it, and I'm afraid it will become evidence for people's inferences."

Li Ximing's thoughts became more and more complicated, and he whispered:

"My family wants to avoid suspicion. No wonder everyone I meet reminds me not to touch...my family now...I don't know how many real people and even real kings are paying attention."

Li Zhouwei nodded helplessly, but Li Ximing's thoughts became clearer and clearer, and he whispered:

"The cause and effect between Shi Xiu and my family is so great. Even the basic method of Shi Tu was obtained from Wei Li. How can we not get rid of it and move on? From Tongya Gong to Master Xuanling, and later to Xuanling Master Feng... I am afraid that even more, he hopes to transform my family into the land of liberation like that famous King of Ming Dynasty!"

Everyone was so sorry to see him that he looked like he was going crazy. If it weren't for Ling Bing's support, Li Ximing would probably be injured again. After he finished explaining what happened before, his expression became colder and he replied:

"Bei Shi is the number one enemy. Wherever fate comes from, even I will be in great danger!"

Li Zhouwei was worried and responded:

"That's it. I feel like I can't wait a day longer, and after hearing those things about Maha... I'm afraid I'll have a little more room if I come to Zifu one day earlier."

Li Ximing listened to the words and became even more wary. He gradually calmed down. He had not said much at the moment. What he wanted to know most was the progress of Li Zhouwei's secret method. He was looking forward to it and asked:

""Ming Hua Huang Yuan Jing" In your mind, although the secret method is difficult, it should be nothing to you. Calculating the time, after you came out of the lake, you only had more than three years to practice calmly. How many ways can you refine? "

When Li Zhouwei saw him mentioning this matter, a bright smile appeared on his face and he replied:

"Master, I have sufficient cultivation. I have tried the nine secret techniques one by one. Among them, [Emperor's Order] has been completed, and [Baibingfu] and [Daxi] have been completed..."

‘Already have some cultivation? Have you already practiced without any practice? ’

Li Ximing was hesitant to speak, with a complicated look on his face, when Li Zhouwei continued:

"I came all the way from Hetianhai and practiced [Baibingfu] and [Daxi] along the way, and I achieved success..."

"ah?"

Li Ximing only heard this sentence, as if he had been struck by thunder, with an incredible look on his face, and said in doubt:

"Practice [Hundred Soldiers Palace] and [Da Zhan]? Can both be practiced at the same time?"

You must know that Li Ximing was young and vigorous at the time, and he probably felt the difficulty before practicing [Yang Yuan], and even estimated that he could complete the Nine Paths within a hundred years... But after completing [Yang Yuan] for several years, he realized that the secret methods were mutually exclusive. The more you practice, the harder it becomes. From now on, you will no longer have the thought of completing the practice in a hundred years. Not only is it impossible to complete the practice, but you will not even be able to practice it at all in the future.

But if they could practice at the same time, why would Li Ximing have to put in so much effort at that time? Wouldn't practicing one after another delay each other? If we practice together and wait until the nine paths are complete, wouldn't we get twice the result with half the effort! Now I just ask urgently:

"Since you can practice at the same time, don't practice one after another. The secret methods are mutually exclusive and the practice will inevitably become slower and slower. Even if you are extremely talented, waiting for the sixth or seventh path... I'm afraid it will take you year after year. It takes much less time for practitioners of the Eighth Path or Seventh Path to achieve success together!”

Li Zhouwei nodded and replied:

"This is what the real person is thinking... I was also worried earlier that the "Emperor's Order" has been completed, which will inevitably make the difficulty of the following methods greatly increased. The estimation is also extremely conservative, but according to your description, I will finish the [Sky Lantern] first. 】To increase the speed of practicing other secret methods...but I found...the secret methods are not mutually exclusive, and even complement each other. The more you practice, the faster you get..."

Li Ximing was speechless for a moment, then realized later:

"No wonder you can be a fellow practitioner."

Li Zhouwei asked him to calm down and continued:

"The juniors have completed the two paths of [Emperor's Order] and [Hundred Soldiers' Mansion] one by one, and noticed that there are differences. Among the remaining six paths, [Emperor's Order] leads [Dazhu] [Yangyuan], and [Hundred Soldiers' Mansion] links [Sky Lantern] [Treasure Step] [Return] is more helpful..."

"As a result, the practice has become even faster. Now that the two systems have been completed, seven secret methods have been achieved. Only the two paths of [Jinlin] and [Red Cicada] have not been touched."

"Seven ways?!"

"good."

Li Zhouwei said seriously:

"The [Emperor's Order] is of great use. I estimate this junior... If the [Emperor's Order] is not born with several paths, it would be much more difficult. Counting the time, it actually takes ten years to practice from scratch to achieve the goal." Such progress."

And Li Ximing's talent in Mingyang is not bad among Zifu, and it took more than ten years to master the three methods...

Li Ximing's expression was complicated. Li Zhouwei had three secret techniques. Even these three were regarded as innate. Even if he had cultivated on the Hetianhai Road, he had also cultivated four in the past three or four years... He sighed deeply. , replied:

"Destiny that we were born with and nurtured by nature!"

"Then the other two..."

When Li Ximing asked, Li Zhouwei replied thoughtfully:

"This is also the reason why I asked the real person to come... The other two are completely different. Not only is it extremely difficult to carve on the immortal base, but there is also a lot of resistance. Although it is estimated that it will take a few years to complete it, the delay is too long. ... Then I will find the real person, and the remaining two will break through the Zi Mansion on the spot!"

Li Ximing stroked his beard and thought, quickly recovered from the shock, nodded slightly, and whispered:

"It's just...there are no Mingyang Zifu spiritual objects available now. Fortunately, I have a few Mingyang Zifu Great Pills to assist in cultivation. They are relatively gentle and can help you push the immortal foundation into the rising sun."

After saying that, he took out the small box from the storage bag, put it in the palm of his hand, and opened it gently, revealing three white elixirs that looked like scales, which were none other than [Lin Guangzhao Yidan].

"I used a pill made from two mingyang treasures. When I arrived at Juque, I had to rely on myself. This pill should be enough. I'll leave two pills for you, just in case."

This is the Zifu elixir. It is much better than the one Li Ximing had originally. Even after using it, a lot of medicine was wasted. Li Zhouwei frowned and declined, but Zifu's affairs could not be ignored at all. Li Ximing forced it on, and Li Zhouwei had no choice but to accept it. He took one, indicating that it was enough, and then said seriously:

"I will give you a stone talisman. If I succeed in breaking through, I will immediately crush it as a sign and go up to the lake..."

He took the stone talisman, took out a jade slip from his sleeve, and handed it back to Li Ximing's hand. Before he could speak, Li Ximing suddenly became embarrassed when he saw the jade slip and replied:

"Oh...this, this, this...this thing..."

This thing is exactly the detailed description of Yang Yuan that Li Ximing wrote with more than 100,000 words. Now it seems like a lot of nonsense, but Li Zhouwei said seriously:

"My experiences in practicing here have been written down a long time ago. They are all recorded at the back and combined into one article. I ask you, Master, to keep it and keep it as a legacy for my clan."
