"Who lives in the valley? If the defensive formation is not removed quickly, don't blame a certain family for being ruthless——"
Li Zhi was just about to step into the valley in front of him with one foot, but he felt a strong force locking him in. The "Breaking Illusion Golden Eyes" was launched, and at the same time, the "Purple Sky Divine Thunder Spear" was already in his hand.
.
"Moon Eclipse Demon Formation"?
It is actually a Buddhist formation. It is basically a Taoist formation that has been reshaped and then added a name out of thin air.
However, the "Eclipse Demon Formation" in front of him seems to be only a semi-finished product. Even if Li Zhi doesn't understand the formation at all, there won't be much problem in breaking the formation with strength alone.
However, thinking that my father walked in on his own, although it is unlikely, what if he really ran into an acquaintance?
Therefore, even though he already had the "Purple Sky Divine Thunder Spear" in his hand, he still did not force his way in. Instead, he shouted loudly outside the valley and offered a courtesy before attacking.
The peak momentum of "Golden Immortal" was unmistakable, and the entire valley was echoing.
"We haven't seen each other for many years. Not only has His Royal Highness the King of Jin grown older, but his temper has also gotten a lot louder——"
The young female cultivator who welcomed Li Shimin into the valley seemed to have been guarding the entrance of the valley, because she "accidentally" heard Li Shimin's words outside the teahouse - "This time, I came out with my Jiulang."<
/p>
Kuro?
The Ninth Young Master whom she once thought she would stay with for the rest of her life, she left just because of an order from her master's sect.
It was only said to be a year and a half, but who knew that more than ten years had passed. Apart from going to the master's gate to receive the inheritance, she had been living in seclusion here with her master.
A few years ago, she thought about going back from time to time, but Master kept stopping her.
In recent years, especially after she broke through to the "celestial immortal" realm, she has become a certain strength in the entire Tang Dynasty.
Master asked her to go down the mountain for a "walk", but she hesitated.
A woman who is about to turn thirty, even if she has reached the realm of "celestial being", she still has the mentality of a mortal.
At this point, they are no better than those who have been practicing for hundreds, thousands, or even longer. They have already experienced the psychological barriers of "age". To be precise, they no longer have the concept of "age".
But she is not good enough, or in other words, this is also a sign that she has not practiced well.
If a woman who is about to turn thirty has been practicing in the mountains, she may not be aware of the wasted years, especially for those who are successful practitioners.
However, once she was asked to enter the mortal world again, and even thought of going to the distant city of Chang'an to take a look at the "person" she had been dreaming about, she hesitated.
She politely declined her master's request and continued to stay here to cultivate. Three years later, she had already reached the peak of "celestial immortality".
……
Just as Li Zhi was about to rush in, he heard a familiar voice, and then the figure flashed, and a young female cultivator appeared in front of Li Zhi.
"You are... ah! The eldest grandson girl?"
When Li Zhi saw the appearance of the visitor clearly, even though he had reached the peak level of "Golden Immortal", he couldn't help but be surprised.
Who is this young female nun?
It was the first woman around Li Zhi more than ten years ago - Changsun Pingting.
Maid? Bodyguard?......
In fact, when Li Zhi was just twelve years old, Empress Changsun arranged for her eldest grandson Pingting to enter the palace, not only to protect Li Zhi's safety, but also to find women for her son.
Men of this era usually mature relatively early. Let alone twelve years old, even those who are younger are married, not to mention that Li Zhi is still His Highness the King of Jin of the Tang Dynasty.
It is perfectly normal to arrange a woman for the prince in advance.
However, Li Zhi is a little different from ordinary people. On the surface, he was only twelve years old, but inside he lived an adult in his thirties, and he was also an adult thinking about future generations.
Facing a woman who was just fourteen years old, how could he do anything even if she seemed to be mature in everything?
In this way, during the years when Li Zhi and his eldest son, Sun Pingting, were together, Qin Huaiyu also accompanied them, so the three of them seemed less awkward together.
On weekdays, Qin Huaiyu and Changsun Pingting have more contact and communication.
There is no way, who can call two people "youthful" in the true sense?
As he grew older, especially when Li Zhi "grew up" to the age of later generations, he felt that he had grown up and it was time to talk about marriage.
That's how the relationship between him and Yang Chan emerged, or in other words, Li Zhi didn't have any thoughts during his trip to the "Palace of Demons" in the Netherworld and Blood Sea.
As for Li Zhi's feelings for his eldest grandson Pingting, they have slowly changed over time. Is that a good childhood memory?
Timeless!
Memories are beautiful after all, although in Li Zhi's view, that woman is always covered with a veil. Her origin, her origins, and her skills?
"Ninth Young Master, you are well and well——"
Are you okay?
Thousands of words of greetings, and more than ten years of lingering dreams, finally only condensed into this sentence: "Goodbye and be safe."
Li Zhi has experienced the past and present, and there have been one, two, three... women around Li Zhi. However, the eldest grandson Pingting has always only had Li Zhi in her heart.
There may be a small group of women in this era who recognize "emotion", but most of them are bound by "status".
Changsun Pingting is such a woman.
When Empress Changsun recruited her into the palace, how could Lan Xinhuizhi’s eldest grandson Pingting still not understand the Queen’s intention?
Fortunately, she is free with Li Zhi, and she can even improve her own cultivation by following Li Zhi, which is much faster than practicing at her master's sect.
In the heart of the eldest grandson Pingting, Li Zhi is her man and her eldest grandson Pingting’s heaven.
This is why, in the past ten years, although she has never gone down the mountain, she has repeatedly refused Master's request to ordain her.
"The world is over"!
This is Changsun Pingting's response to her master, and it is the words she has buried deep in her heart.
However, with the passage of time, the eldest grandson Pingting has also passed the threshold of thirty years old and has become a "big" woman. Will the Ninth Young Master still remember her?
"You're welcome and safe——"
Seeing the eldest grandson Pingting in monk's uniform in front of him, Li Zhi's thoughts seemed to go back to many years ago. After moving his mouth for a long time, he just replied "I'm fine".
"Click, boom——"
A thunder exploded, and a purple thunder fell from the sky, striking directly into the valley.
"Miss Changsun, we will discuss other matters later. My father is going through the 'celestial immortal' thunder tribulation inside, and I must go over and take care of him."
Although Lei Jie can only rely on his own strength to survive, Li Zhi still doesn't trust his father. After all, he was just brought up from the state, and his real strength is far behind.
Seeing Li Zhi's anxious look, even though the eldest grandson Pingting didn't know why, she didn't stop him, and even directly removed the "Moon Eclipse Demon Subduing Array" that guarded the valley.
"Ninth Young Master, beware of fraud——"
At this time, Luo Tong came over from behind. When he entered the "Prince Jin's Mansion", the eldest grandson Pingting had already left.
Even Changsun Pingting has never stayed in the so-called "Prince Jin's Mansion" for even one day. However, after so many years, many people have tried their best to enter the "Prince Jin's Mansion", but Changsun Pingting's courtyard has always been left.<
/p>
"Haha, Luo Tong, this person is not an outsider. Do you still remember the courtyard next to Sizi in the 'Prince Jin's Mansion'? That was reserved for her."
Seeing Luo Tong's nervous look, Li Zhi didn't feel funny, but was full of emotion.
"Is she the eldest grandchild?"
Luo Tong has never met the eldest grandson Pingting, but he has heard about the eldest grandson Pingting from Qin Huaiyu more than once. Between what he said, it is very likely that this woman is also the woman of His Royal Highness the King of Jin.
"The last general, Luo Tong, has met the eldest grandson, but he didn't know her identity just now. Luo is rude——"
Thinking of this, Luo Tong quickly clasped his fists and saluted to his eldest grandson Pingting.
"Okay, we are all outsiders, so don't be so polite. Miss Changsun, this is Luo Tong, the son of the Duke of Yue and the cousin of Qin Huaiyu. He has also served in the 'Prince Jin's Mansion' in recent years."
/p>
While talking for a while, two more thunderbolts had already fallen. Li Zhi was not in the mood to just stand at the mouth of the valley and "tell each other goodbye". It was obvious that he didn't have the time.
Li Zhi took the lead to walk in, only to find that the valley had been devastated by lightning. There were exploding flowers and plants everywhere. Rabbits ran out of nowhere and rushed towards several people. p>
"Ah, did something happen in the Zen room? Master, she——"
Seeing the scene in the valley, Changsun Pingting couldn't care less about being "sad for the autumn and hating the moon" there, and ran in as quickly as possible.
"Luo Tong, just stay at the mouth of the valley and don't let the calamity thunder disturb these three war horses."
Li Zhi made a visual inspection and found that it was still several miles away from the mouth of the valley to where Jie Lei fell. He thought it would be relatively safe to come here.
After giving orders to Luo Tong, Li Zhi headed towards the place where Jie Lei fell.
This place seems simple, but Li Zhi always has a strange feeling in his heart. He is still thinking about what happened before. Why can't his "Breaking Gold Eyes" not see through the scene in the valley?
……
"Master, you...what's wrong with you?——"
When Li Zhi caught up with Changsun Pingting, he saw her in the open space of the valley, holding someone in her arms and crying loudly.
"Miss Changsun, who is this?..."
Judging from the figure, she is a woman, but she is a nun. Her face is wrinkled, her eyes are closed, and she is breathless.
"Ninth Young Master, His Royal Highness Prince Jin, come quickly... come and save my master. She was fine just now, but in the blink of an eye, why did all her magic power disappear?"
Seeing that the graceful Master had turned into the old appearance before her, with no cultivation at all, and looking like he was about to take a breath, Changsun Pingting suddenly ran out of ideas.
"Your master? And he will let her lie down."
Since this person is Changsun Pingting's master, and seeing that her life is hanging by a thread, Li Zhi naturally cannot ignore her.
Without hesitation, Li Zhi summoned the "True Sun Fire" from the sea of consciousness.
"Huo Ling, please go and see my father. If his life is not in danger, you can guard him quietly. If you see that he can't withstand the thunder, you can help him resist it for a while."
There is no way, Li Zhi has no skills, the only one who can have independent consciousness and can make it public is the "True Sun Fire".
"'Celestial' thunder tribulation? This thunder tribulation seems to be a little different. It is actually a purple thunder tribulation. It seems that your old man is at least a 'six-nine thunder tribulation' this time."
Follow Li Zhi to see the "big scene" of the catastrophe. To be honest, Li Shimin, the "celestial being" in front of him, is really a little disdainful of the "sun fire".
"Miss Changsun, Master, this seems to be a form of 'dispersion'?"
Li Zhi checked the dying person lying on the ground and found that all the functions of her body were still there, but she had reached the point where "the oil was exhausted".
It seems that her age should not be like this, but because she lost all her magic power and it backfired on herself, she became like this.
"Ninth Young Master, do you have a way to save my master? Your master is my only relative in this world. I can't lose her -"
After hearing Li Zhi say that his master was "dispersing his kung fu" on his own, he turned around and looked at the scene of the tribulation in full swing. Changsun Pingting seemed to understand something.
"It's not difficult to revive your master, but I still don't know why she 'lost her skills'. Does she have another plan? If I take action rashly, I might ruin her hard work."
As for those who practice cultivation, unless they are at a critical moment that threatens their lives, who will lose the magic power gained through years of hard work?
Li Zhi believes that the master, Changsun Pingting, is not a mentally disturbed person. In this situation, there may be something hidden?
"Let's do this. I will use my secret method to kill your master first. If she has other plans, we will naturally be happy to see them come to fruition. If she doesn't show any signs of improvement, I won't be able to save her in time." p>
In the end, Li Zhi adopted a compromise method. He quietly transformed a white lotus shadow from the twelfth-grade Pure World White Lotus and penetrated it directly into the body of the dying person, thus completely protecting her.
Heart gate.
Li Zhi is not asking for help. With his current ability and means, even if this person is really dead, even if Black and White Wuchang comes to arrest the soul, he can beat those two back.
In this way, while Li Zhi was observing the condition of the dying man, he also did not forget to pay attention to the progress of his father during the thunderstorm.
At this time, more than forty thunder tribulations have fallen. It seems that "Sun True Fire" has really guessed correctly. I am afraid that what is coming this time is really the "Sixty-Nine Thunder Tribulation".
Li Shimin, who was under the calamity thunder, had already turned into a miserable state, but he still stood with his head held high, and raised his head to the sky and roared from time to time.
The technique that Li Shimin originally practiced was called "Emperor's Technique", which was said to be a set of techniques that only human emperors could practice, or that emperors in the world must practice.
In Li Zhi's opinion, it is a complete "chicken rib", a skill that can only be practiced to the point of "martial arts and spirituality", what about it?
However, later, the man from the "Tianmo Palace" forced him to have five hundred years of cultivation, and Li Shimin was directly pushed to the peak of "overcoming the tribulation".
Naturally, she could no longer practice the "Emperor Technique". Fortunately, Li Mingda was here and directly passed the first four levels of the "Cangming Technique" passed on to her by her ninth brother, and also passed it on to her father.
After all, he is his father, so Li Mingda doesn’t have to worry. When Ninth Brother comes back one day, he will blame him for being good at making opinions.
Unexpectedly, Li Shimin became more comfortable practicing the "Cangming Jue", which at least made Li Mingda feel a little bit amused.
Why is it that when I am practicing, I am not as good as my father in getting twice the result with half the effort? Is it because my talent is too average?
In fact, Li Mingda was wrong.
The reason why Li Shimin started practicing "Cangming Jue" so quickly and smoothly was because he was switching cultivation instead of starting from a poor mortal.
You must know that Li Shimin is already at the peak stage of "overcoming the tribulation", and the "Cangming Jue" he obtained is only for the first four levels, which is enough to break through the "celestial being" realm.
Rather than saying that Li Shimin is practicing the "Cangming Jue", it is better to say that he is transforming his power.
What's more, this "Cangming Jue" was written by that person. After all, Li Shimin is or was an emperor of the human race just like that person!
At this time, Li Zhi was afraid to recognize Li Shimin, who was under the calamity thunder. He saw that there was a faint Buddha's light outside his figure.
When did dad practice Buddhist techniques?
In Li Zhi's opinion, his father's way of overcoming the tribulation is too simple. He doesn't have to do anything, just stand there and wait for the tribulation thunder to strike?
With such a "coquettish" way of overcoming tribulations, I survived more than 40 tribulations. Is today's thunder tribulation a waste of time?
Moreover, even though Li Shimin was disheveled and in a state of embarrassment, he was in extremely good spirits and seemed to have unprecedentedly abundant mana.
What is going on?
Li Zhi used his "Golden Eyes of Destruction" to scan his father carefully.
"Well, how come there is an inner elixir with sufficient Buddhist power in his Dantian?"
I saw that the "inner elixir" seemed to use Li Shimin as a carrier to absorb the calamity thunders falling from the sky, and then transfer the power of these calamity thunders into the Buddhist inner elixir in the Dantian.<
/p>
The fifty-second path, the fifty-third path, the fifty-fourth path...
The "sixty-nine calamity thunders" finally fell. In an instant, the clouds opened and the fog dispersed. Several Zen rooms and teahouses that had stood for countless years had long been destroyed by the calamity thunders.
"Hahaha, is this the power of the 'celestial being'? It's really too powerful. Is this finally my own power?"
The compensation for overcoming the tribulation has been awarded, and Li Shimin jumped directly to the middle stage of "Celestial Immortal", clenching his fists and laughing.
Li Zhi couldn't help but feel a little funny looking at his father's unseen expression.
He hurriedly took out a set of clothes from his storage ring and sent it over the air. It seemed that he had to take the time to teach his father some commonly used magic spells, so as not to lose any sense of being a "god".
"Pheasant slave, why did you come here? If I hadn't met my father's old friend here, I would have died under this thunderstorm, but it was really fun just now, hahaha——"
Seeing his son coming, Li Shimin's rare face turned red, and seeing everything around him, he couldn't help but feel a trace of apology welling up in his heart.
A good place to live outside the world was completely destroyed by one of my own "celestial beings".
"Dad, where did you find your old friend? Why doesn't your son know about it?"
Li Zhi hurriedly threw another "Cleaning Charm" over. He had changed his clothes, and the smell of his father was really too...
"By the way, where is Fairy Master? Fortunately, she lent me an 'inner elixir', otherwise I might not be able to survive being a father."
Hearing his son ask about his "old friend", Li Shimin remembered the "fairy". Looking around, he saw his eldest grandson Pingting squatting on the ground and a person lying on the ground.
"Dad, the 'old friend' you are talking about cannot be the eldest grandson's master, right? By the way, this eldest grandson is the girl who was brought to me by my mother many years ago."
There are only two people in the valley. One is the eldest grandson Pingting. It seems unlikely that she is an old friend of Li Shimin, so there is only the one lying on the ground.
Intuition told Li Zhi that there might be some intriguing "story" between his father and the monk on the ground?
"Ah, Fairy Master——"
Li Shimin finally recognized who was lying on the ground, not by her appearance, but by her clothes and the rosary in her hand.
"This...how could this happen? Pheasant slave, get over here and cure her quickly——"
Well, the once majestic lord of a country, the "Khan of Heaven" who was famous all over the southern continent, actually had such a bad time?
Li Shimin snatched the position of the eldest grandson Pingting, and dragged the upper body of the person on the ground with both hands. Looking at her current appearance, he was heartbroken but at a loss.
"Ahem, dad, you just said that she lent you an 'inner elixir'? Then take out the 'inner elixir' and let me take a look."
Li Zhi had long noticed the "inner elixir". It was still the size of a pigeon egg just now, but now it is like a goose egg, which has grown more than ten times in size.
"Quick, this is it. Fairy Master must have lent me the 'Inner Alchemy' to overcome the tribulation, so she became like this."
"Hey, after so many years, why are you still so stupid? It doesn't matter whether I can survive the disaster or not. After all, I still have my son following me. This kid has a lot of clever ideas. Why did you come here?"
Li Shimin spread his right hand, and the "inner elixir" the size of a goose egg appeared in his palm. The strong breath of Buddhism was mixed with the power of purple thunder, and Li Zhi frowned slightly.
He has seen many such "inner elixirs" before, but this is the first time he has seen one like this.
It's not that this "inner elixir" is so powerful, but it only has the power of the "immortal" realm. Maybe it's because what Li Shimin just passed through was the "immortal" calamity.
What made Li Zhi doubtful was that he vaguely felt that there was a breath of life in this "inner elixir"?
"Pheasant slave, I've given you the 'Inner Alchemy', what are you still doing in a daze? Quickly save the Master Fairy?——"
Li Zhi was still hesitating, but Li Shimin on the side was already urging him.
After seeing this "inner elixir", Li Zhi roughly understood the thoughts of people on earth.
Or maybe the other party is not just looking for his own benefit. At least he helped his father survive the "celestial immortal" thunder tribulation, and he is also tainted with the aura of Buddhism.
Whether this result is good or bad, Li Zhi couldn't figure it out for a while.
However, after this battle, the people on earth also achieved "celestial immortal" cultivation.
She actually risked her life, condensing her whole life's magic power and concentration into this "inner elixir", and sent this "inner elixir" to Li Shimin to overcome the "celestial being" thunder tribulation.
How much trust does this show in your father?
Li Zhi didn't even understand whether this person was stupid or bold.
After the "Inner Alchemy" returned to his body, Li Zhi shot three white lotus shadows one after another, and the people on the ground began to change.
In the time it took to make a cup of tea, there was no one dying. She was clearly a middle-aged woman who still had her charm!
The divine beauty is restrained and as pale as a chrysanthemum. Opening your eyes lightly, you can see them for a thousand years.
