If she is here to cause trouble for him, then she is a witch.
If she is here to give him pills, then she is his good Chanchan.
Ten pulse-opening pills are not ten pulse-opening pills. Even if the dual cultivation speed is maxed out, it can save ten years of hard work.
Li Yu returned to Yuxuan Peak, practicing spells while waiting for Chan Chan's arrival.
One day three days later, the disciples guarding the peak of Yuxuan Peak summoned the master to tell Li Yu to go to Yuxu Palace.
In Yuxu Palace, in addition to the demon girl whom he had not seen for more than half a year, Li Yu also met two powerful Nascent Soul masters from the Xuanyin Sect.
The demon girl came this time not just to deliver pills. From the conversation between the real master and the powerful Xuanyin sect, Li Yu learned that the two factions seemed to have discovered a new first-order secret realm. This secret realm was the first
This time is connected to the big world. It has never been mined before. There are many elixirs growing in it. Although the grade is not high, the quantity is very large. Two strong men from the Xuanyin Sect are here to discuss resources with Kunlun.
distribution problem.
With the development of the world of immortality, it is no longer the ancient barbaric era. For the sake of resources, sects often kill mountains of blood among sects. Nowadays, things that can be resolved through peace talks are rarely resorted to force.
Of course, the reason why we can sit down and talk is that the strength of Kunlun and Xuanyin Sect are almost the same. If Kunlun is a small sect, or Xuanyin Sect is a small sect, even if it is a secret realm discovered at home, it will not be qualified to develop it.
This kind of negotiation usually cannot be concluded in a short time.
The Yuanying Patriarchs of the two factions responsible for this matter had to go through several days of discussions and countless exchanges of interests before they could determine the final result.
During this period, under the arrangement of the headmaster, Li Yu, on behalf of Kunlun, was responsible for receiving the saint of the Xuanyin Sect, eating, drinking and playing with her. Even her sleeping place was arranged at Yuxuan Peak.
There are ten pulse-opening pills, and Li Yu doesn't feel bothered at all.
However, Zhou Zixuan did not have a good impression of this Xuanyin Sect saint.
In the past two days at Yuxuan Peak, she had been bossing around in everything, yelling at Li Yu as if Li Yu was her little brother. As Li Yu's Taoist companion, Zhou Zixuan naturally couldn't stand it, but others were Xuanyin.
Even if the saint is taught, she can't say anything.
In order not to make herself angry, she simply moved to Yuzhu Peak to find Jiang Li in the past two days.
On Yuxu Peak, two figures descended from the sky. Li Yu asked the demon girl with some anxiety: "Girl, what are we doing here again? There is nothing interesting to see here..."
The witch wanted to come to Yuxu Peak for no reason, and Senior Sister Qin was at Yuxu Peak. It was certainly not a good thing for Li Yu for the two of them to meet.
Nangongchan glanced at him and asked, "Can't you just take a look?"
Li Yu shrugged and said, "Okay, you are a guest, you can see whatever you want..."
The instruction given to Li Yu by the master master is to satisfy the requirements of the demon girl as much as possible. If you cannot satisfy them, you can ask him for instructions. He, the master of Kunlun, can be said to be extremely indulgent towards the demon girl of the Xuanyin Sect.
This shows how much the headmaster valued her father.
Li Yu could only pray in her heart that Senior Sister Qin had better practice in her own residence and never come out...
But in this world, many things are often unsatisfactory.
Li Yu and Nangong Chan had just passed through a main hall when they saw a familiar figure in the square behind the hall.
The woman whose face was covered with a gauze also saw them.
Her eyes swept across Li Yu and fixed on Nangong Chan.
The next moment, Li Yu felt that the auras of Nangong Chan and Qin Keren disappeared.
He felt very embarrassed.
Nangongchan and Qin Keren were both accidental.
They obviously practiced the Watching Qi Technique and could see through even the Nascent Soul Stage's cultivation level, but they couldn't see through the other party's, just like they couldn't see through Li Yu's cultivation level.
This happens for only one reason.
That means the opponent also used the Hidden Qi Technique.
Qin Keren looked at Li Yu, while Nangong Chan looked at her and said, "I didn't expect that you also know the hidden energy technique."
Qin Keren said calmly: "Is this a secret technique exclusive to your magic? If you can understand it, why can't others understand it?"
The witch's acting skills are comparable to those of a movie queen, and her reactions are very quick. Li Yu cooperated with her in time and asked in surprise: "Miss Nangong also knows the art of concealment of energy?"
Nangong Chan rolled her eyes at him: "This is not your righteous secret technique, why can't I understand it?"
This look was full of profound meaning, and Li Yu knew that even though he was okay now, he might not think about it after he went back.
Qin Keren immediately thought that Nangongchan's hidden energy technique was taught by Li Yu, but after thinking about it, he thought it was unlikely, and their reactions also confirmed this.
As equally famous geniuses in the world of immortality, they were often mentioned and compared at the same time. After finally meeting each other, they naturally wanted to see how far the other had practiced, but they did not expect that they both knew the hidden energy technique.
After Senior Sister Qin met the demon girl, the air around them was filled with a dangerous atmosphere. For fear that something would happen if it continued like this, Li Yu took the initiative and said to Qin Keren: "Master Master Zhenren, I will take Miss Nangong to visit Kunlun. It's just right.
When we arrived at Yuxu Peak, I took her to the front to have a look, Miss Nangong, let’s go..."
Qin Keren nodded slightly, turned around and walked into a large hall.
Nangong Chan gave Li Yu a "I'll settle the score with you later" look and continued to walk forward.
Their current location is in the inner hall of Yuxu Palace. Theoretically, only the direct disciples of the Master are eligible to live here. However, the Master has only one disciple, Senior Sister Qin, so almost all the palaces here are
It's vacant. I don't know how Senior Sister Qin can practice here alone. Will she feel lonely if she stays for a long time...
If it were Li Yu, she would definitely not be able to bear it. He needs someone around to talk to him. If there is really no one, he can just raise a cat or a tiger.
Nangong Chan did not mention the hidden energy technique for the time being. When he walked to a palace, he stopped and stared at the palace for a long time.
Li Yu looked up and saw the words "Evergreen Hall" written on a huge plaque above the palace.
Immortal cultivators usually embed their own names into the names of their residences. For example, Li Yu's Yuxuan Peak is a combination of his and Zhou Zixuan's names. This palace has the word "green" and is located on Yuxu Peak.
It is difficult to guess that its former owner should be the father of the demon girl.
Regarding Senior Brother Chen, Li Yu had heard of his reputation in many places, but he didn't know exactly what kind of person he was.
Li Yu asked Nangong Chan: "Girl, is Senior Brother Chen really your father?"
Nangongchan said calmly: "I don't have a father."
Li Yu was slightly startled.
Could it be that the rumors were wrong, but the real headmaster had said it himself, could there be some other secret behind this?
Nangong Chan said calmly: "It has been almost twenty years since I was born, and I have not seen him a few times. Is there really such a father in this world?"
Having lived for twenty years without seeing her biological father a few times, the demon girl is indeed a bit pitiful.
No wonder she didn't have any respect when she mentioned her father.
At the same time, it is not surprising to Li Yu that the reason why her character is like this is that throughout her childhood and adolescence, she lacked the key father's love, and her character must be different from that of a girl who had a complete and perfect childhood.
When Li Yu first entered the police academy, psychology was a compulsory subject.
Children who lack father's love in childhood will be more eager to receive care when they grow up, in order to make up for the lack of emotion in childhood. The direct manifestations are that they are prone to worry about gains and losses, are sensitive, suspicious, controlling, and possessive...
The witch has all these characteristics.
Looking at the main hall, Nangong Chan's face showed a trace of confusion, and she murmured: "Is it possible that your righteous way is so good, but your evil way is so unbearable? In the past twenty years, he has not even been willing to come to Xuanyin Sect to see me once...
"
Li Yu could only comfort her and said: "In fact, it is difficult to distinguish between good and evil. Not all good people are good people, and not all evil people are bad people. Senior Brother Chen, maybe he has other reasons..."
Nangongchan asked: "What difficulties, what difficulties can make him not see his biological daughter for twenty years?"
Li Yu was helpless and thought, I'm not your father, how would I know?
He only knew that if he had a daughter, he would hold it in his mouth for fear of melting and hold it in his hands for fear of falling. He would definitely fight to the death against anyone who refused to let him see his daughter.
But the witch is really pitiful. No matter how powerful she is or how high her status is, there are some things she just doesn’t have if she doesn’t have them. It is this experience that has created her sensitive, suspicious and possessive character.
After standing here for a while, the enchantress no longer looked at the "Evergreen Palace", her mood was waning, and she and Li Yu returned to Yuxuan Peak.
She looked at Yuxuan Peak, which was full of spiritual energy and full of medicinal fields. After returning to a main hall, she said calmly: "You are very good in Kunlun. Two years ago, you were just a new disciple who had just started, and you can take charge of a peak so quickly.
Already."
Li Yudao: "It's all because of the great love of the master..."
Nangong Chan suddenly said: "Kunlun treats you so well. If I were you, I would definitely not go to Xuanyin Sect. In terms of spiritual energy, there is not as much abundance as Kunlun in terms of resources. You will not betray me in the future, right?"
Li Yu said seriously: "The girl has saved my life three times. How could I betray the girl?"
Nangong Chan said lightly: "That's not necessarily the case. Compared with immortality, life-saving grace is nothing. There are not many cases of repaying kindness with enmity in the world of immortality. If your words are credible, why does Qin Keren know the hidden energy technique? Don't tell me.
, Her hidden energy technique was not taught by you, right?"
It’s coming, it’s finally coming…
What was supposed to come would eventually come, and Li Yu knew that this topic could not be avoided today.
However, he was already prepared in his heart and said calmly: "Although I taught Sister Qin's Qi Hidden Technique, I did it entirely for the sake of the girl..."
Nangongchan looked at him and sneered: "For me? Did I ask you to teach her?"
Li Yu said innocently: "It was the girl who asked me to pay more attention to the news about Senior Sister Qin. The news I learned from others is naturally not as credible as witnessing it with my own eyes. In order to get first-hand news about her, I
I can only find a way to get close to her and offer her the hidden energy technique, which is the most critical step. In addition to this, I often send her fruits and ask her for advice on spiritual practice. After nearly a year, I can finally talk to her occasionally.
I have said a few words, but the other disciples of Kunlun can’t even see her..."
Nangongchan was stunned for a moment, "Really?"
Li Yu said speechlessly: "It was you who asked me to pay attention to Senior Sister Qin. I finally got close to her, but you have forgotten it yourself?"
Then, he was a little disappointed and said, "Girl, do you just not trust me that much?"
This move turned against the guest and caught Nangongchan off guard.
She moved her lips and said after a long time: "I, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just that I hate betrayal..."
As she spoke, she opened the front of her shirt.
Li Yu was stunned. Could it be that in order to prevent herself from betraying, she planned to use a honey trap?
But soon, Li Yu realized that he was thinking too much.
Nangong Chan unbuttoned her skirt, but not completely. Li Yu saw that there was an obvious scar on her left chest and lower shoulder.
Immortal cultivators generally don't have scars on their bodies. Even if they are injured, they can be recovered with magic power and elixirs.
Nangongchan put her clothes back on and said: "This is the price of trusting others. She was originally my most valued maid, but she made a sneak attack at the most critical time of my practice. If I hadn't avoided the fatal position, you
You haven’t seen me for a long time. I keep this scar to remind myself that I can’t trust anyone..."
She looked at Li Yu and said: "I am so good to you. If you betray me, even if you escape to the ends of the world, I will kill you with my own hands!"
She has been missing her father's love since she was a child and was betrayed by the person she trusted the most. No wonder she is so suspicious. At this time, Li Yu could only say: "Without me, I would have died countless times. Don't worry, girl, I will definitely not
The one who betrayed the girl..."
Half a day later, Nangongchan left Yuxuan Peak.
Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief. After learning about her past experiences, Li Yu had to be extra careful when talking to the witch, for fear of saying something wrong and hurting her sensitive and fragile heart.
After she and the people from the Xuanyin Sect left, Li Yu went to Yuzhu Peak, brought Zhou Zixuan back, and then went to Yuxu Peak to recover.
Wang Daoxuan asked: "How are you getting along these days?"
Li Yu shook her head and said: "This girl from Nangong has a very weird temper. It is not easy to get along with her..."
Wang Daoxuan sighed softly and said: "She is also a poor child. If there is any offense, please be tolerant."
Li Yudao: "Don't worry, Mr. Master, I understand this. We are the masters and she is the guest. No matter how rude she is, of course I will tolerate it..."
Wang Dao
Increase it to ten..."
Li Yu clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Master."
Kunlun's second-grade alchemy master competition is not held every year, but every five years. This is the first time Li Yu has experienced it after two years of training.
Although the second-grade alchemy masters have higher standards and the elixirs they refine are higher-grade, the total number of second-grade alchemists in the sect is less than 200, and the number who participate in each competition is less than 100.
, the scale of the competition is naturally incomparable to the apprentice competition and the first-grade alchemist competition. It is a niche competition within the alchemy peaks.
In previous second-grade alchemy master competitions, the leader's reward was five pulse-opening pills. This time, the master made an exception and increased the reward to ten pills.
This was obviously promoted specifically for Li Yu. After all, according to several fourth-grade alchemists, not to mention the second-grade alchemists, even those third-grade alchemists from the sect, participating in this second-grade alchemy competition, would not
Don't even think about taking away the ten pills from Li Yu.
The headmaster took special care of Li Yu.
As a second-grade alchemist, it is unprecedented to be in charge of a peak. To participate in the competition and specifically increase the reward for him is a naked preference. However, the Nascent Soul Patriarchs did not raise any objections when discussing the matter.
That's a sect's headmaster. If you don't even have this privilege, who else would be willing to be the headmaster?
Besides, he didn't give it directly to Li Yu. The reward for the leader of the competition had to be obtained through sheer strength.
Although it is no different from giving it directly...
In previous second-grade alchemy master competitions, the alchemy geniuses from each peak, especially those disciples of fourth-grade alchemy masters, competed extremely fiercely. No one knew who would win in the end until the last moment.
But although this competition has not started yet, there is no suspense. Before Li Yu is promoted to a third-level alchemist, they don't even have to think about the leader of the second-level alchemy competition.
And their opponent is more than one Li Yu.
You know, the other of the Alchemy Twins has just been promoted to the second level.
The first and second place in the competition were undoubtedly won by the two of them. After three rounds of competition, Li Yu's furnace was the best, and Junior Sister Zheng's furnace was the best. Most of the contestants could produce a top-grade furnace in one furnace.
It has been blessed by the God of Alchemy.
It is not difficult to get started with alchemy, but it is not easy to master it, and the further you advance, the harder it becomes. People like Li Yu and Junior Sister Zheng who progress faster as they advance are just exceptions after all.
At Yuxuan Peak, Li Yu took the purified Tuomai Dan one by one and felt the changes in the mana in his body.
Every time the pulse is expanded, the spiritual vein can hold more mana. The witch gave him ten vein-expanding pills, and he won ten more in the competition. Not long after the foundation was built, his mana was comparable to that of a single spiritual vein.
It’s mid-term.
A competition rewards ten Pulse Extension Pills. Apart from Kunlun, perhaps only the Tiandao Sect has this kind of background.
After taking these pulse-opening pills, Li Yu came to Lingyun Peak again.
He refines twenty furnaces of Tongmai Pills for the sect every month. Three pills are produced in one furnace, a total of sixty pills, and he gives the sect twenty top-quality pills. The rest are Li Yu's own and can be exchanged for Tuo Tuo.
Pulse Dan.
Thirty pills for one pill was not worth it, but there was nothing he could do about it. Why couldn't he refine a third-grade elixir?
Wang Hua looked at the thirty Tongmai Pills that Li Yu took out. Li Yu and him looked at each other with a tacit smile.
Wang Hua smiled and said: "You kid, you were so stupid when you were in Yuxu Palace..."
Obviously, it is not Li Yu's limit to produce a top-grade elixir in one furnace. He can at least refine another top-grade elixir, but when he showed it to the Yuan Ying Patriarchs in Yuxu Palace, he deliberately hid it.
Wang Hua is also an alchemist and understands this very well.
If you pay as much as you practice, then who would be willing to be an alchemist? Shouldn’t people be allowed to seek their own welfare?
Handing a high-grade meridion-opening pill to Li Yu, he added: "I haven't refined the useless pill this month, so I can't give it to you..."
Li Yu was not surprised by this. The materials for third-grade elixirs were so precious that they could not be wasted. If any third-grade alchemist produced useless elixirs every month, he would probably be demoted soon.
At the end of this month, he received requests from several peaks and helped them refine several batches of pills, but only received two low-grade pulse-opening pills.
Through normal channels, Li Yu can get about three pulse-opening pills every month. It seems like a small amount, and it can't be compared with the speed of getting the pulse-opening pills during the Qi refining period. However, these are third-level pills. This is already
A speed that would make 99% of those in the foundation building period envious.
Not counting other channels, it would take less than ten years to cultivate all five spiritual meridians to the peak of foundation building with just three pills per month.
After the second-grade alchemy master competition, Li Yu's pace of practice gradually slowed down. In addition to alchemy and double cultivation every day, he also practiced various spells and martial arts, and his life was quite fulfilling.
After the foundation-building period, practice becomes the main theme of life.
During this period, two bad news came from Ziyun Peak. Alchemist Lao He and weapon refiner Lao Xu returned to the ruins one after another within three days.
Li Yu found a beautiful place in their homeland and buried their ashes there. According to their last wishes, Li Yu also set up a small mechanism in front of their tombs.
If someone discovers their burial place and worships in front of the tomb, a secret compartment in the ground will open.
In the secret compartment, there is a basic cultivation method, an introductory book on formations and weapon refining, and a Qi Gathering Pill sealed in a jade bottle, which are the blessings left by the two to the destined person.
After doing this, Li Yu returned to Kunlun.
After the deaths of Lao He and Lao Xu, the mahjong stall in front of Ziyunfeng's small courtyard could no longer stand up. The remaining two people also lay back on the rocking chairs and waited for the day of returning to the market.
Old friends died one after another, which made Li Yu feel more sentimental.
The direct manifestation is that he is practicing even harder. In the past, he relied on elixirs for almost all of his practice and almost gave up on guiding Qi by himself. But now, Li Yu does not let go of any time, even Jiang Li
He and Zhou Zixuan were both infected by him and became much less playful.
Li Yu knew very well that his talent was not much better than those of his old friends who had returned to the ruins, or even worse. If it were not for his identity as an alchemist, more than two hundred years later, he would most likely be like them and eventually become an alchemist.
Scratch the loess.
On this day, Li Yu had just finished practicing for a week when he received a summons from Yuxu Peak.
