Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Five: The True Sect Comes to the Door
A long absence is better than a newlywed.
In the evening, there was a series of battles and many twists and turns.
The process is so exciting and exciting that outsiders cannot understand it.
afterwards!
Zhou Hong's delicate body nestled lazily and feebly in Chen Li's arms. After a long time, she suddenly burst into laughter.
Chen Li was confused: "Why are you smiling all of a sudden?"
"I never thought that my man would become a foundation-building monk. It feels like a dream." Zhou Hong tightened her hands on Chen Li and whispered as if she was dreaming.
"Don't you always say that I am a genius?" Chen Li stroked Zhou Hong's smooth back and said with a smile: "In the future, our life will only get better and better, and it will never be like what it was like in Green River Fang.
I’ve been scared all day long!”
That night, the two talked privately all night long.
It wasn't until the sky got brighter that Zhou Hong couldn't hold back her sleepiness and fell into a deep sleep.
Chen Li had been on the road these days and didn't sleep for another night, but she was still in high spirits. She quietly got up from the bed and used a cleaning technique to get rid of the smell of last night's joy.
Then he picked up the robe and was about to put it on, but suddenly he found that the robe had been torn into several small holes at some point, and was severely worn in many places.
"When did it happen?" Chen Li muttered secretly.
This is a top-quality robe of the first level. The material itself is extremely flexible, invulnerable to water and fire, and difficult to be injured by ordinary soldiers. With normal wearing methods, it can be worn not only for a lifetime, but also for decades. There is no problem at all.
He thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of anything that had been attacked at close range recently.
"Could it be that the robe was damaged when practicing Zhou Tiangang Jin?" He thought thoughtfully.
The more he thought about it, the more so.
Zhou Tiangang Jin is different from defensive shields such as body shields. The former is close to the body, while the latter is a mana shield in the air.
The spiritual power in the body looks gentle and tame, but once it is transformed into protective gas under the secret method, it is completely like ignited gasoline, which can only be described as violent.
"It seems that the first-level robes are not suitable for use by foundation-building monks at all!" Chen Li secretly said: "It is another huge expense."
Fortunately, he has saved a lot and still has 34 high-grade spiritual stones.
Zhou Hong returned all the family's money to him last night.
There's no need to worry about this.
He took out a spare robe from his storage bag and put it on, and carefully combed his hair. He felt that it was worthy of his foundation-building status, and then Shi Shiran walked out of the bedroom.
He poured a cup of spiritual tea and sat comfortably at the door.
The sky is still slightly dark, and in the early morning of midsummer, the cool breeze blows and the air is fresh.
A bunch of unknown wildflowers grow carelessly and enchantingly in the corner of the yard. The morning dew rolls and trembles on the buds that are about to bloom, exuding a subtle fragrance.
Chen Li took a sip of the spiritual tea.
It feels like I haven't been so completely relaxed for a long time.
My whole body was filled with a faint sense of peace.
In the entire Immortality...no, Huanzhen Domain, I estimate that there are only about thirty people in the Foundation Establishment, and they are completely rare beings.
When he takes this step, he will be in another world, and the sea and the sky will be brighter from now on.
Regardless of identity, status, class, strength and lifespan, they have all been improved in all aspects, and from now on they are no different from casual cultivators.
"Oh, I will lose most of my worries in the future!"
"However, the foundation building technique is indeed a problem. I wonder how those foundation building families obtained it?" Chen Li pondered in his heart: "Also, we need to know the Huanzhen Sect's attitude towards casual cultivation of foundation building. It seems that next,
I have to visit more places!"
Fortunately, we don't have to rush into the practice.
Chen Li was prepared to wait for a while before talking.
He has just entered Foundation Establishment now, and has not yet fully adapted to his own strength, and the people he will come into contact with next are all Foundation Establishment monks. He is a newbie to Foundation Establishment, so he has to be cautious when dealing with such people.
At least train Zhou Tiangang Jin to the expert level first. Then the power will be increased by one level. In case of conflict, you can also have an extra level of self-protection.
He has self-knowledge in his heart.
Although when he killed Zhou Xutang, he was only at the eighth level of Qi training.
Now that the foundation has been established, his strength is no longer what it was before. But that time it was an assassination. He had planned it for a long time, and the other party was unprepared and could not do anything. In terms of true strength, he now estimates that it is only
The scope of ordinary foundation building in the early stages.
Chen Li leaned on the chair, drinking tea while his thoughts were wandering.
The sky was getting brighter, and he felt that the shops in Luanluocheng had opened. He drank the cold tea in his hand and went back to the house to put down the teacup.
He jumped off the courtyard wall and rushed to the shop, ready to dispose of a large pile of elixirs and second-level monster bones.
He visited several shops and sold out everything, selling a total of more than 160 middle-grade spiritual stones.
Most of the income came from the bones of second-level demonic beasts. As for a lot of elixirs and some miscellaneous things obtained along the way, only eight middle-grade spiritual stones were sold, which can only be said to be better than nothing.
When I came back, I passed by Zhang Yan's house and couldn't help but pause.
He is back now.
It feels better to say hello.
He stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Bang bang bang!"
"Old Zhang, open the door quickly!"
"Who is it? It's so early in the morning!" Zhang Yan's rough voice came from inside, and soon the door opened with a "squeak". When he saw Chen Li who had become younger, he looked dumbfounded and pointed at Chen Li as if he had seen a ghost.
Xiide: "You...you...you..."
"What are you? You don't even recognize me?" Chen Li pushed open the courtyard door and walked in.
Zhang Yan was stunned for a while, then pinched his thigh fiercely, and the severe pain made him wake up. He quickly closed the door and chased after him in small steps, with a look of shock and complexity on his face: "You...you are building a foundation!"
?”
"I was lucky enough to build a foundation not long ago, and I just returned to Luanluo City yesterday. Why don't I come over to see you today?" Chen Li said with a smile.
"Oh, that's really a distinguished guest. My lady, your uncle is here, let's serve tea!" Zhang Yan suppressed the emotions in his heart and smiled quickly.
"Ah, is uncle back?" A surprised voice came from the back room, and soon Zhang Shuniang appeared at the door. She couldn't help but be startled when she saw Chen Li, and kept staring at him with her eyes.
"Has she become good-looking again?" Chen Li joked with a smile.
Zhang Shuniang came back to her senses after hearing this, her face turned red, and she said shyly: "Uncle! I...I will make tea for you right now."
As he spoke, he ran back to the back room like a frightened deer.
Alas, the little girl back then has grown up and doesn’t need to be teased anymore.
"You are such an adult, but you still don't know any etiquette." Zhang Yan reprimanded him and said with a smile: "Senior Chen... please don't take offense."
"What's our relationship? We've been friends for many years. We're just called seniors. Speaking of which, I'm still a few years older than me. It's the same as before and it will be the same in the future. There's no need to talk about these rules."
"I can't do it, I can't do it. How dare I, a Qi Practitioner, be worthy of my senior Taoist friends? If people find out, they will think that I am arrogant and ignorant." Zhang Yan quickly waved his hands and said, looking at Chen Li's young and handsome face, he felt mixed emotions in his heart.
Unspeakable.
The other person is still young, but he has already started to grow old.
Chen Li said it several times, but Zhang Yan insisted on calling him that. In the end, he had no choice but to let him go. In the world of immortality, the strong are respected, and the hierarchy is so naked.
Zhang Shuniang brought tea, Xiafei said with both cheeks, "Uncle, drink tea."
I took this opportunity to peek a few more times in secret.
Chen Li thanked her, chatted with Zhang Yan for a while, and left after not sitting for long.
…
After sending Chen Li away.
Zhang Yan closed the courtyard door, returned to the house with his daughter, sat down on a chair, and sighed to his daughter: "I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Chen to actually build the foundation. How long has it been? People really can't compare."
"Uncle has always been so powerful. If he hadn't been delayed when he was young, he would have been able to build the foundation long ago." Zhang Shuniang said.
Zhang Yan couldn't help but feel depressed after hearing this.
This daughter is older.
It becomes less and less considerate.
The elbows always turn outward.
"I was also delayed by you when I was young!" Zhang Yan said angrily: "If it weren't for you being such a sluggish person, I would have... long ago been in the late stage of Qi training."
Zhang Yan originally wanted to build a foundation, but in the end he lacked confidence.
After saying that, I felt even more depressed.
"I know that dad is working hard, and it's not easy to drag me along. It delays my practice. I will definitely be filial to dad in the future." Zhang Shuniang coaxed quickly.
"That's pretty much it!" Zhang Yan's face softened slightly when he heard this: "Go and make me another cup of tea!"
…
Chen Li did not deliberately hide the news about his foundation building, and it soon spread to the nearby neighbors.
Gu Mengqing and Zhao Changer came over one after another to congratulate Chen Li on establishing the foundation.
When the Lian Yu family heard the news, they sent a congratulatory gift even though they were not there.
Whether it is the previous Immortality Domain or the current Huanzhen Domain, the number of foundations rarely changes. Basically, one is added every few years. This is the entire domain including sects.
As for the chance of appearing in casual cultivation, it is even smaller.
Every time it was an unprecedented event.
So much so that every time he went out, Chen Li could feel all kinds of respectful, curious, and awed looks, so much so that if he wanted to be clean, he had to disguise himself before going out. Fortunately, Chen Li didn't go out often.
Before Chen Li could train Zhou Tiangang to the level of an expert.
People from Huanzhen Sect have already come to visit.
"My Excellency, Zhang Songlin, is the deacon of the external affairs of Zhenzong. I have met Senior Chen. Congratulations to Senior Chen!" The visitor was a middle-aged qi-training monk. He looked friendly, and he was obviously used to welcoming people and sending them off.
Chen Li welcomed him into his home.
"You're welcome, sit down, I don't know what you want from me!"
"I wonder what your senior's plans are after building the foundation. Are you planning to stay in the Huanzhen Realm or are you planning to leave?" Zhang Songlin cupped his hands and said respectfully: "Besides, senior doesn't have the foundation building technique yet, right?"
"I haven't made any plans yet. If you have anything to say, please just say it!" Chen Li frowned and said.
"I'm here, firstly, to congratulate Senior Chen for establishing the foundation, and secondly, to invite Senior to become the Huanzhen Sect's guest minister. When the time comes, the cultivation techniques that Senior needs will be provided by the sect, and Senior will be allowed to stay in the second-level spiritual land.
"We have opened a cave for the purpose of cultivation. As long as we stay there for twenty years, senior can come and stay as he pleases." Zhang Songlin explained his intention.
