Ye Liuyun has been practicing in Jianbaozhai. He does not lack abilities now, but has too many and needs to clear his mind.
Otherwise, it will not be able to exert 100% of its power.
Of course, Ye Liuyun's most important thing is to work hard to break through the fourth level. After all, state is the foundation of a cultivator.
Ye Liuyun's talent and qualifications are very good, and his five-star qualifications are even higher, so there is no bottleneck at all.
However, cultivation also requires gradual progress and time to grow. It is impossible to become a first-class saint all at once.
Judging from the experience of the simulator, it took Ye Liuyun ten days to break through to the fourth level.
During these ten days, Ye Liuyun has been focusing on the realm of cultivation, and at the same time, he has also started practicing the "Snow Shadow Confused Tracking Steps".
Although Ye Liuyun already possesses the first step in the world of [shrinking the ground into an inch], it consumes too much real energy.
It can only be used at critical times. On weekdays, using "Snow Shadow Fan Tracking" is the best choice.
Time flew by in a hurry, and Ye Liuyun had been hiding in the Jianbao Studio to practice, ignoring what was going on outside the window.
In the outside world, Ye Liuyun's name has been widely spread!
After all, defeating the young prince Yuan Huan of Beiyuan Wasteland and bringing glory to the country is really very attractive.
But these are none of Ye Liuyun's business. After all, even if he had done such a great feat, Xia Emperor Su Shiyu handed him over as soon as he said so.
Only strength is the foundation!
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye, and Ye Liuyun successfully broke through to the early stage of the fourth level!
At this time, Ye Liuyun's soul was extremely condensed in his mind, and then underwent a qualitative transformation.
The fourth level of practice gives birth to spiritual thoughts!
Ye Liuyun can now affect the surrounding materials by emitting his spiritual thoughts, which is extremely lethal to practitioners without spiritual thoughts.
Ye Liuyun, now, a single soul impact can make practitioners below the fourth level lose their minds!
Ye Liuyun spent half a day to stabilize his cultivation.
…
The next day.
Ye Liuyun was thinking about how to match various abilities. At this moment, Xu Canghai knocked on Ye Liuyun's door.
"What's the matter?" Ye Liuyun asked.
"People from Prince Xian's Mansion are looking for you." Xu Canghai said.
"Huh?" Ye Liuyun's eyes lit up and he walked out immediately.
When he walked downstairs, he saw that it was Ning Qiugui, the captain of the bodyguard. Ye Liuyun couldn't help but feel happy.
"Could it be?" Ye Liuyun asked.
"Yes." Ning Qiugui said with a smile: "Miss Ling did not go to see Her Highness the Princess today, so Her Highness the Princess asked me to come find you."
"I've been waiting for a long time..." Ye Liuyun was speechless, "This Ling Zhiruo is too annoying."
"Let's go." Ning Qiugui urged with a smile, "Don't keep Your Highness the Princess waiting."
"etc."
Ye Liuyun turned to look at Xu Canghai and said, "What kind of meeting gift should I bring?"
When Xu Canghai heard this, he rolled his eyes and Ye Liuyun said, "It's the best gift for you to pass away now."
Ye Liuyun groaned and decided not to give gifts. Giving gifts every time would make him look extravagant.
So Ye Liuyun and Ning Qiugui went to Prince Xian's Mansion.
Prince Xian’s Mansion, back garden.
Ye Liuyun looked at Su Xiaoxiao and said, "Are you in a hurry?"
"No." Su Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes at Ye Liuyun.
Ning Qiugui on the side was very discerning and secretly left, leaving Ye Liuyun and Su Xiaoxiao alone with each other.
Ye Liuyun walked over and said, "This Ling Zhiruo is too bad. You should not associate with her in the future."
"Why do you say such things!" Su Xiaoxiao suddenly pouted, "Zhiruo and I grew up together, you are not allowed to say such things in the future!"
"Can you just say it?"
"No!" Su Xiaoxiao frowned.
"Really not?"
"no."
"Can I not kiss you?"
"no."
"Oh, what a helpless request," Ye Liuyun immediately leaned over and slapped Su Xiaoxiao's little face.
"..." Su Xiaoxiao was completely stupid.
Just as he regained consciousness, he was shocked, angry and ashamed, and stamped his feet.
"You are bad!"
"Do you like it?"
"dislike!"
Ye Liuyun continued: "You really don't like it?"
"dislike!"
Ye Liuyun said: "Then I won't hug you anymore."
"I don't like it!" Su Xiaoxiao said again.
Ye Liuyun shrugged his shoulders and hugged Su Xiaoxiao directly, "Oh, you little girl, you have so many demands."
Su Xiaoxiao: "..."
Ye Liuyun whispered in Su Xiaoxiao's ear: "Do you like it?"
Su Xiaoxiao's whole body seemed to have melted, and she had no strength. She snuggled into Ye Liuyun's arms and hammered lightly with her pink fist.
"like!"
Ye Liuyun smiled slightly and moved toward Su Xiaoxiao's mouth.
"Bo!"
…
In the days that followed, Ye Liuyun occasionally spent time with Su Xiaoxiao.
Most of the time, I practiced in Jianbaozhai, and I also successfully practiced "Snow Shadow Fan Zongbu" to a small degree.
At the same time, Ye Liuyun also picked up "Dragon and Tiger Foundation Building Skills".
This is a technique that can improve talent, and it is very rare. After knowing that lighting up the nine stars can lead to the Heavenly King List, Ye Liuyun is very interested in it.
Time flies by and twenty days pass.
Ye Liuyun received a summons from Chen Nuannuan.
"Here we come." Ye Liuyun tidied up his clothes and headed to the Golden Blade Guard headquarters.
If he hadn't come here, Ye Liuyun would have forgotten that he was still a patrol officer with the silver sword of the Golden Sword Guard.
Chen Nuannuan's office hall.
"I've met the Governor." Ye Liuyun cupped his hands and said.
"Yes." Chen Nuannuan nodded. Originally, Ye Liuyun was not qualified to see her directly, but Ye Liuyun was very talented and powerful, and he defeated Yuan Huan to bring glory to the country.
So Chen Nuannuan bypassed Xue Hou and summoned Ye Liuyun directly.
"This time, I have an important task for you." Chen Nuannuan said.
"Please give me the governor's orders." Ye Liuyun said, cupping his fists.
"A major case occurred in Guzhou this time. The specific circumstances are unknown. There is a barrier that can only be entered by people below the fourth level. According to limited intelligence, it is known that there is some kind of conspiracy behind the scenes, endangering the lives of hundreds of thousands of people.
life."
"Everyone sees your performance, you are invincible below the fourth level, so I plan to..."
Halfway through Chen Nuannuan's words, she suddenly realized that she couldn't sense Ye Liuyun's cultivation.
"you……"
Ye Liuyun cupped his fists and said, "I have broken through to the fourth level not long ago."
Chen Nuannuan: "..."
How long has it been?
How old is Ye Liuyun?
A fourth grade who is less than twenty years old?
"Alas..." Chen Nuannuan's expression was uncertain. Ye Liuyun did not intentionally break through at this time, and the cultivation matters were beyond his control.
Ye Liuyun cupped his fists and said: "Lord Governor, actually, although I have broken through to the fourth level, I can use the [Xuanyin Seal] to suppress my cultivation. I can only unlock the seal after entering the crime scene."
Hear this.
Chen Nuannuan was a little surprised and said: "But what if [Xuanyin Seal] is invalid?"
"I think I can give it a try, and the [Xuanyin Seal] is one of the ninety-nine great magical powers in the world, and the possibility of it being ineffective is very small," Ye Liuyun said.
Chen Nuannuan groaned and said: "In that case, you can go there, but I will find someone else to go there. After all, the lives of hundreds of thousands of people are at stake."
"Okay." Ye Liuyun nodded, "I'll leave immediately."
"Um."
Chen Nuannuan nodded. Ye Liuyun didn't have to go, but even if the trip was in vain, he still wanted to go. This made Chen Nuannuan change his mind.
It seems that I misunderstood Ye Liuyun before. Ye Liuyun is only frivolous in daily life, but he is still very reliable when things happen.
…
Jian Bao Zhai.
Xu Canghai said with some surprise: "So you are leaving now?"
Ye Liuyun nodded.
"Then please pay attention to safety on the road," Xu Canghai said, "You broke through really fast."
You know, Xu Canghai was in the fourth rank before, and Ye Liuyun was only in the ninth rank.
Now Xu Canghai is still in the fourth grade, and Ye Liuyun is also in the fourth grade.
The speed of this cultivation is so fast, it’s scary!
But when I think about Ye Liuyun's five-star qualifications, I feel relieved. In the past, Ye Liuyun's level was low because he had not been cultivated.
Later, I joined Golden Blade Guard and took off immediately.
"It's okay." Ye Liuyun shrugged.
Xu Canghai hesitated for a moment and said, "Would you like to bring some magic weapons for self-defense? I can't give them to you, but I can lend them to you temporarily."
Ye Liuyun shook his head and said: "No need, my current fighting power is enough."
Xu Canghai looked at Ye Liuyun speechlessly. This guy is too crazy. Facing the unknown mysterious case of Guzhou, Ye Liuyun is so trusting?
"Forget it, it's up to you." Xu Canghai said, "If you die, I will go find the magical person who has the power of "Wishes Come True" to resurrect you and give you back your life."
"Is this okay?"
Ye Liuyun was stunned.
"Of course." Xu Canghai said, "It's just that the price will be too high to imagine. But for the sake of you giving me the "Qiankun Breastplate", I will break through to the first rank in the future and be ranked on the first rank king list, and I will remember to resurrect you.
.”
Ye Liuyun rolled his eyes.
"When you break through the first rank and get on the first rank Heavenly King List, then I may already be on the God List."
"You really dare to say that." Xu Canghai burst into laughter upon hearing this.
Although he knew that Ye Liuyun's tone was loud, he couldn't help but be a little frightened after hearing these words. This guy really dared to dream.
"Gone."
Ye Liuyun went to the palace again.
Saying goodbye to Su Xiaoxiao, Ling Zhi kissed Su Xiaoxiao goodbye with a fire-breathing expression.
Finally, Ye Liuyun embarked on his journey.
Head to Huncheng, Dengjun, Guzhou.
…
Five days later.
Ye Liuyun worked hard and finally arrived at "Soul City".
From the simulator, we learned that Ye Liuyun will resolve this matter within two days.
But Ye Liuyun didn't know the specifics, but he just had to follow his feelings.
Ye Liuyun was outside the "Soul City", only about a hundred steps away from the city gate, and walked forward.
"Bang!"
Ye Liuyun seemed to have hit an iron plate and could not enter.
"This realm with 'restrictions' is very strange. Once the 'restrictions' are violated, the confinement will be very terrifying. Even a first-grade saint will have to pay a huge price to destroy this barrier."
Ye Liuyun pondered, "So the most cost-effective way is to let people who are invincible below the fourth level take action, or use the number of people to pile up and push directly."
Ye Liuyun didn't think much and directly used [Xuanyin Seal] to suppress his cultivation to the peak of the fifth level.
Then I walked over again, this time without any obstacles, as if the invisible wall before didn't exist.
"In that case, then..."
Ye Liuyun directly unlocked the [Xuan Yin Seal], but at the next moment, Ye Liuyun felt a repulsive force.
It seems that he will be excluded from the "Soul City" because of this.
"According to this feeling, you only have a quarter of an hour at most before you will be excluded from the "Soul City"."
Ye Liuyun understood, "Then the seal will be released when fighting is needed."
Ye Liuyun once again put a seal on himself.
From this point of view, there is no way for other fourth-grade masters to come here. After all, others cannot seal and release the seal at any time.
"Go to...the City Lord's Mansion first."
Ye Liuyun walked straight towards the city lord's mansion.
During this period, I looked around and saw that there were no pedestrians on the road.
The overall atmosphere is depressing.
Soon Ye Liuyun came to a magnificent building.
"Take me to your city lord and tell him that I am here to solve this trouble." Ye Liuyun said.
"Okay, please come with me." After hearing Ye Liuyun's words, the guard at the door perked up.
Seeing this, Ye Liuyun started to worry. It seemed that this time the whole city was shrouded in a shadow.
The lobby of the city lord's palace.
Ye Liuyun was sitting on the main seat, and a middle-aged man with a beard was sitting on the seat below.
"I have met the special envoy," the middle-aged man with a beard said: "I am the city lord of Soul City, my name is Gou Yuanzi, and I have the peak strength of the fifth rank."
Ye Liuyun nodded, "Tell me, what happened to this "Soul City"? Will it endanger the lives of hundreds of thousands of people?"
Gou Yuanzi said solemnly: "Special Envoy, I don't know the specifics..."
Ye Liuyun rolled his eyes in his heart and was about to speak when Gou Yuanzi continued to speak.
"This thing is full of weirdness," Gou Yuanzi said, "Every once in a while, the entire "Soul City" sky will be shrouded in a layer of blood."
"Um?"
Ye Liuyun frowned, "The bloody curtain, why didn't I see it?"
Gou Yuanzi said: "It usually happens once every three days, and it has been two days since the last time."
Ye Liuyun nodded, "Continue."
Gou Yuanzi said: "Although the bloody curtain is weird, we don't have many solutions and it has no impact. On the contrary, we recently discovered that there is an enchantment in "Soul City", and those above level 4 will be excluded and cannot enter."
"I know this." Ye Liuyun said, "Are there any clues?"
Gou Yuanzi said: "There is also a very important thing. There are monsters in the city, they often eat people, and their strength is very terrifying. When the fourth level cannot be dispatched, they are basically invincible. If they continue to eat the monsters, it will not take long.
God, the entire soul city will be eaten up!"
Ye Liuyun suddenly realized what he said.
"The so-called trouble that endangers the lives of hundreds of thousands of people is this monster causing trouble?"
Gou Yuanzi shook his head and said: "No, the monster appeared recently. It was not there when I reported it. The reason why I said it endangered the lives of hundreds of thousands of people is mainly because this bloody curtain looks like a blood sacrifice formation."
Ye Liuyun pondered.
In fact, Gou Yuanzi exaggerated, but his exaggeration was not wrong.
The water in this "Soul City" was very deep, and Ye Liuyun fell down several times.
"After the blood-colored curtain appeared, the monster beast also appeared. There must be a relationship between this. Let's solve the problem of the monster beast first."
Ye Liuyun said, "Is there any blood from monsters? Or items that monsters have come into contact with?"
Gou Yuanzi couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Ye Liuyun did not pursue the matter he had reported randomly.
Immediately, Gou Yuanzi said: "Yes, last time I united with the strong men from the Blood Knife Sect Branch and the Golden Knife Guard Branch to hunt the monster beasts together, and we experienced a bloody battle. Although we failed, the monster beasts also bled.
.”
After saying that, Gou Yuanzi took out a porcelain vase.
"This monster comes and goes without a trace, and it is very good at using illusions. As a result, many people were deceived and eaten without knowing it. The method I thought of was to "kill with a curse", so I collected the blood of the monster and waited until it was good at it.
People of this way come here."
"Kill with curse?"
Ye Liuyun took the porcelain bottle, smelled it, and used his [Thousand-mile Tracking] ability.
"I can't kill you with a curse, but my method is simpler, direct and faster!"
After saying that, Ye Liuyun's figure rose into the sky and flew in one direction.
Gou Yuanzi quickly followed.
"Special envoy, be careful. This monster is invincible under the fourth level! You can never defeat it alone!"
