Feeling Xu Rui's aura, the Angry Chicken and Green Snake, who were roaring at each other and refusing to give in, quickly stopped. The red and blue divine lights flashed.
In mid-air, there was a young girl wearing a red blouse with sky-high braids, who was full of righteousness; and a handsome young man who was wearing a blue robe and was as handsome as jade.
After the two glared at each other fiercely, they quickly flew to Xu Rui.
"master."
Xu Rui nodded and was about to speak when he suddenly heard the sound of breaking wind coming from behind him.
Turning around, several figures quickly appeared in the direction of the cave.
Everyone is very familiar.
Red girl, partridge whistle, flower spirit.
"Ms. sir."
For Hong Gu and others, Xu Rui, who had been away for twenty years, had actually been separated for less than two hours, so there was no particularly emotional expression.
The reason why they came together was because they were alarmed by the roars of Angry Rooster and Green Snake.
"Phoenix, real dragon?! How is that possible!"
After several people saw clearly what was happening in the valley, their eyes widened with disbelief on their faces.
"The phoenix is Nuqing, and the true dragon is the green snake. Their cultivation has improved, and their bloodline has returned to their ancestors, so their appearance has changed drastically."
Xu Rui's explanation was far-fetched, but Hong Gu and others could not think of any other better explanation, so they could only accept it with suspicion.
On the first day back, of course, I had to do a lot of double cultivation.
The greatly improved girl Hong benefited from Xu Rui's strong cultivation and improved her magic power. She was soon promoted to the late stage of foundation building, and the golden elixir was in sight.
While Xu Rui was practicing, he was meditating on the 'Short Piece Qinglian Seal', and occasionally went to search for several Jedi mentioned in Ghost Blowing Lantern.
With his current cultivation and strength, there is no danger to these so-called Jedi.
But there was nothing in it that he could see.
I got some, but they were not of high quality and I was too lazy to sell them, so I gave them to Hong Gu, Partridge Whistle and others.
Time passed by little by little, and two years passed in the blink of an eye.
In the secret room of Qinglin Valley, Xu Rui sat cross-legged and meditated. Three feet away in front of him, a lotus bone the size of an adult's palm shone brightly.
Suddenly, Xu Rui's finger gestures changed.
Strands of spiritual light flew into the lotus bones, visible to the naked eye, and streaks of auspicious energy bloomed from the lotus bones, which also slowly expanded.
Within a quarter of an hour, the lotus flower was already the size of a basin.
Xu Rui's hand fight stopped.
"open."
With a 'swish', the dazzling cyan aura bloomed like the sun.
At the same time, there was a strong wind and thunder in the training room, and the energy of water, fire, and earth were instantly strong.
A fire about ten feet long, a dark blue water ball the size of a water tank, cyan wind, purple thunder, and solid clods of soil were arranged in five rows, constantly rotating around the lotus flower.
As the five elements become more and more different, the lotus flower slowly opens and gradually turns into a nine-grade lotus platform. Five egg-sized eggs are exposed on the jade-white lotus platform, which are red, black, green, purple and yellow.
Orb.
"Five spirit beads!"
Xu Rui was excited.
With a wave of his hand, five orbs flew into his palm.
“It’s worth noting that after more than two years of hard work, I finally got it.”
With the integration of spiritual consciousness, it was easy to successfully practice the five orbs.
Looking at the five spirit beads and five sixth-grade inferior Zifu treasures surrounding him, he did not intend to keep them all in his hands, but planned to use them as nourishment for his treasure.
Especially the Wind and Thunder Spear, the Wind Emperor's Path Diagram and the Five Elements Absolute Immortal Sword Formation.
The former two are due to his lack of realm, while the latter is due to the lack of a suitable spiritual sword.
As for the Dragon Roaring Sword that I just got, it's okay, but it's a Geng metal, not water, fire, or earth.
After receiving the five spirit beads, my heart moved.
The wooden box behind Xu Rui opened, and a spiritual light slowly flew out.
What you see is a yellow cloth baggage shrouded in layers of auspiciousness.
With a finger, the baggage is opened.
Waves of sword energy spread out, in five colors: red, white, black, yellow, and green.
Accompanied by the rich sword light, five magic swords of different shapes and strengths were arranged according to the five elements, slowly floating above the formation formed by the baggage.
“The metal ‘Dragon Roaring Sword’, the earth attribute ‘Xuanwu Sword’, the water attribute ‘Jellyfish Sword’, the fire attribute ‘Suzaku Sword’, and the wood attribute ‘Qingling Sword’.”
While Xu Rui was thinking silently in his heart, he quietly admired the five divine swords.
Except for the 'Dragon Roaring Sword', which can be repaired into the ten forbidden Zifu treasures, the rest are only high-grade magic weapons after repair.
"If this sword array is set up, all the immortals will be killed!"
This is his strongest trump card currently.
"If the 'Dragon Roaring Sword' can be completely repaired, it will also pose a certain threat to the loose immortals."
But it was a pity that he did not have suitable spiritual materials on hand.
Although the Chongfeng Divine Iron was of the sixth grade and agreed with his request, it was a complete axe, and it was impossible to cut off even one piece.
"Let's leave that for later."
After collecting the 'Five Elements Immortal Sword Formation', Xu Rui took out the 'Wind Emperor's Path Map' and played with it.
Over the years, he has studied the 'Small Blue Lotus Seal' and the 'Eight Ominous Mysterious Fire Array', and has a deeper understanding of the Tao. If the materials are suitable, he is 70% sure that the 'Wind Emperor's Path Diagram' can be refined into a low-grade magic weapon.
.
"I don't know if there is any news about the thousand-year-old ice silk and colorful clothes that Gu Tiejun paid attention to last time."
Shaked his head.
"It's a pity that I don't know how to make spiritual paper. Otherwise, I can use the skin leaves of many Tao species to refine high-quality spiritual paper. Then I won't have to ask for thousand-year-old ice silk or colorful neon clothes."
Although making spiritual paper can also be regarded as a type of weapon refining in a broad sense, it is an independent existence in a narrow sense.
Especially for high-grade spiritual paper, there are strict requirements from material selection to craftsmanship, and it is no easier than refining other tools.
Therefore, he lamented that he didn't plan to learn it himself because he didn't have the time and energy.
Just when he was about to go to the human world to contact Gu Tiejun, a strange feeling came into his heart. To be precise, it shook Xu Xuandu, his natal puppet who had deliberately stayed in the human world.
Since Kongming Baoshu advanced and added new natal magical powers, he placed Kunlun, Xu Buzhou and Xu Xuandu in the capital, magic city and Pengcheng.
Because the wider they are dispersed, the more likely they are to be selected by the spiritual world and enter it.
He thought he would get something soon, but he didn't expect that he would have to wait for two years.
His eyes became expectant.
With a thought in his heart, a big black hole appeared in front of him, and with a wave of his hand, several rays of light flew into it.
"I wonder which world it is this time?"
Something moved in my heart.
The puppet Xu Xuandu who was far away in Pengcheng disappeared instantly.
The natal puppet has Xu Rui's soul projection, so whether it is Xu Kunlun, Xu Buzhou, or Xu Xuandu, he is essentially himself.
When Xu Xuandu went in, it was no different than if he went in alone.
With a flash of light, the surrounding scenery changed drastically.
Xu Xuandu, or Xu Rui, looked around. He was surrounded by a lush dense forest, dense and dense, with tangled branches and vines, weeds and wives, and no trace of human beings.
Looking up, an orange-red sunset comes into view.
The soft sunlight shines down, adding a touch of brightness to this desolate valley.
Listening carefully, the howls of tigers and wolves can be heard in the distance, and the calls of various insects merge into one.
After a brief induction, I found that the spiritual energy here was even higher than that of the Zhuxian Spiritual Realm. Although it was not much higher, it was foreseeable that there were many strong souls here.
With a thought in his heart, a foot away from him, the stable space instantly shattered, billowing black mist filled the air, and a black space passage three feet in diameter emerged.
Xu Rui was excited.
This time he did not encounter a space barrier similar to the Zhuxian Spirit World.
In other words, he can bring me, Xu Kunlun and Xu Buzhou here anytime and anywhere.
When the four of them join forces, their combat power can be regarded as the top of the Yuan Shen.
After thinking about this clearly, the excitement in his eyes became more and more obvious.
"It seems that we can get a lot of treasures this time."
With one step, he moved lightly down the mountain. After flying over more than a dozen hills, the surrounding woods gradually became sparse.
A dilapidated dirt road appeared in front of me.
Following this road, not far away is a desolate village. Judging from its dilapidated appearance, it has obviously been abandoned for a long time.
After passing this abandoned village, not far along the dirt road, a line of light came into view.
The sound of cars honking and horses neighing could be vaguely heard.
At first glance, it turns out to be a somewhat humble village store.
"It's interesting, go check it out."
Xu Rui lowered his head and walked straight towards the village store.
When he first came here, he was completely blind. Contact the local indigenous people as soon as possible, and he could understand the origin of this spiritual world earlier, which would facilitate future actions.
He was very fast and arrived in front of the village store in the blink of an eye.
It is said to be a shop, but it is actually three thatched huts side by side. The one in the middle is the largest and the ones on both sides are slightly smaller.
There is a fence around the hut with thick branches, and the door is a door made of several thick logs riveted together.
The door is one foot wide, enough to accommodate two carriages.
The earth in front of the hut was very solid, and three loaded carriages were parked there.
A large pot is set up on the left side of the middle hut.
The broth is boiling and fragrant.
Next to it is a large eucalyptus board with cooked mutton placed on it.
A man with his arms open, revealing his strong chest, was cutting the mutton with a knife, then threw it into a large pot and cooked it for a while, then put it in a large porcelain bowl next to it, sprinkled with chopped green onion, and it was ten thousand fragrant.
mutton soup.
Xu Rui saw this and was about to go in, but quickly stopped.
With a thought, the modern clothes on his body turned into a slightly worn gray robe.
With his right hand spread out, a black bamboo stick emerged.
With a flick of his fingers, spiritual energy gathered, and a long flag appeared on the bamboo staff.
Four words in the letter.
The hanging pot helps the world.
Looking at the appearance of his wandering doctor, he nodded with satisfaction, looked up at the four words "Zhang's Old Shop" on the dilapidated plaque at the door, and walked in.
Seeing him come in, the man cutting the meat wiped the sweat from his forehead with the blackened towel on his shoulder, and then turned his head and looked over.
After taking a brief look, he turned around and went back to his own business.
Xu Rui smiled faintly, stepped up the steps to the second floor, and entered the thatched hut.
There are nine rough wooden tables and chairs in the not-so-wide hall. Probably due to frequent wiping, black patina has appeared.
At the very back of the hut is the counter.
A beautiful village woman wearing a pink dress with a red tube top exposed was sitting inside, posing and looking at the diners around her.
Xu Rui's arrival attracted everyone's attention.
The waiter in gray coarse clothes ran over quickly.
"Sir, do you want to eat or drink?"
"Have a meal."
"Please come this way."
Xu Rui nodded slightly, and under the guidance of the waiter, he walked to an empty table on the left and sat down.
"Sir, our store has good mutton soup, aged wine, and stir-fry dishes. What would you like to eat?"
"Just have some."
"Then I'll give you a bowl of mutton soup, some fried side dishes, and a pot of old wine?"
"Can."
"Okay, please wait a moment."
The waiter turned and left.
Xu Rui put the bamboo stick in his hand on the table and looked around briefly.
Sitting at a table not far from him were eight or nine strong men with daggers and swords in their hands. They looked like escorts and escorts.
In addition to them, there was an old man and a young man sitting at the table against the wall opposite him.
The old man has chicken skin and white hair, and wears a small ocher hat with a spider-like beast embroidered on it. He has deep eyes and a gloomy expression.
Holding a wooden stick in his arms, he sat quietly on the stool.
Opposite her was a little girl with disheveled but very clear hair. However, her eyes were unfocused, and she had obviously lost her vision.
The clothes on her body were wearing a few patches and looked a bit rudimentary compared to the old woman opposite.
Including him, everyone eating in the village restaurant is here.
"The mutton soup you asked for is here."
The waiter ran over enthusiastically and placed a large porcelain bowl filled with mutton in front of Xu Rui.
At the same time, set aside the slightly blackened dough.
"Sir, here is the mutton soup you asked for, and a pot of our home-brewed old wine. You can use it slowly first. I will serve it to you as soon as the vegetables are cooked."
"I know, let's go."
The waiter smiled a few words and then turned around and left.
Xu Rui looked at the large porcelain bowl filled with green and white chopped green onions on the table, which was fragrant and filled with a bowl of mutton.
"The amount is quite large."
With a thought in my heart, I looked up.
I happened to catch the eye of the lady behind the counter.
Seeing Xu Rui's gaze, the landlady smiled charmingly, "Why don't you eat it, sir? Is it because you think the mutton in our store is not delicious?"
Before Xu Rui could say anything, a rough man with his foot on the bench next to him and a sinister face had already laughed.
"What the boss lady said is true. No matter how delicious the mutton is, it's not as delicious as the two lumps of meat in front of you, isn't it, brothers?"
"Haha, Lao Guo is right. I think most of the time this thief wants to taste the taste of nipzi."
All the escorts and escorts burst into laughter.
The lady boss was smiling and didn't seem to mind their teasing at all.
"Masters, please stop teasing me. The head of the house doesn't have a good temper. If he finds out..."
"So what if you know? Kill him and come with me, and I will let you eat and drink spicy food." The rough man who spoke first had a lewd expression on his face.
"We have guests arriving."
The shouts coming from outside the door interrupted everyone's words.
Xu Rui followed everyone's gaze and looked towards the door.
Soon, a handsome scholar carrying a bookcase on his back, wearing a starched white shabby gown, and holding an umbrella in his hand walked in.
Seeing everyone's gaze, the scholar's expression became nervous.
After looking around, he actually walked towards Xu Rui.
When he was three feet away, he cupped his hands into fists and bent down to bow deeply.
"Brother, can Xiaosheng sit at the same table with me?"
The tables here are all Eight Immortals tables, the place is large, Xu Rui doesn’t order many things, and there is a lot of space around.
"sit down."
"Thank you."
The scholar thanked him happily, took off the book basket behind his back and put it aside, then sat down opposite Xu Rui.
The waiter ran over.
"Sir, we have some high-quality mutton, would you like some?"
“How much does a bowl of mutton soup cost?”
"Fifteen grand."
"Fifteen big bucks? So expensive?!" the scholar exclaimed.
"Sir, please take a look at the meat in the bowl of the guest opposite. They are all real mutton. This much meat only costs fifteen dollars. Is it a lot?"
The scholar opened his mouth.
Looking at the big bowl filled with mutton in front of Xu Rui, based on his experience, selling it for fifteen bucks a night is really not much.
"Then I don't want meat, but just soup, how much will it cost?" the scholar asked.
"No meat, just soup?"
"good."
The scholar nodded quickly.
"A big sum," the waiter said hesitantly.
"Then let's have a bowl of soup."
The scholar reached into his arms, and with the crisp sound of copper and iron colliding, he took out a small handful of copper coins, counted ten and handed them over.
The waiter held it in his hand and shook it.
"They say poor scholars, poor scholars, but I didn't expect this scholar to be really poor."
The sarcasm in his words made the scholar angry.
"you…."
Just as he was about to argue for himself, the waiter had already turned away.
After carefully putting away the remaining money, he looked up at Xu Rui, who looked calm. The scholar's face turned red, looking rather shy.
"Brother, let me see the joke."
"It doesn't matter. Han Xin can still endure the humiliation of his crotch, so what does it mean to be a little poor? Besides, not eating this mutton is not necessarily a bad thing."
"Um?"
The scholar looked confused.
Xu Rui smiled and said nothing more.
Seeing him like this, the scholar was too embarrassed to bother him anymore.
Not long after, the waiter brought out the mutton soup and several side dishes Xu Rui ordered.
