"Senior brother discussed this matter with me. Could it be that I asked my younger brother to go to Daiyu Fairy Mountain to ask for the fairy apricot spirit root?"
Wang Li asked with a smile.
"Yes, I just want you to do this."
Zhong Shiji took out a jade slip from his sleeve and handed it to him, saying: "Please return to the Immortal Apricot Spirit Root, what you said is a good thing, junior brother! By the way, I would like to remind senior brother Chen that the position of the senior brother in Yuandu Palace has not changed once every ten years." It’s been a few years, I told him not to forget.”
Wang Li took the jade slip, scanned it with his consciousness, and found that it was the entrance to Guixu where the Daiyu Immortal Mountain was located. He looked puzzled and asked: "The Daiyu Immortal Mountain shown on the map is in Shengzhou, and the senior brother is now in Xian." Why don't you go to the state boundary in person? Or maybe you can send a message to Senior Brother Chen and ask him to bring the spiritual root back directly?"
Zhong Shiji blinked: "Senior brother, I have an important matter to deal with in Xianzhou, which affects whether I can get Zhengdaluo. I can't leave for the time being."
Wang Li looked suspicious and said, "Is this really true? Senior brother can't even recruit a Dharmakaya?"
Zhong Shiji said solemnly: "Brother, I really don't have enough time to do all the work. After the master's words, I also sent a message to several other senior brothers and sisters. I also asked Qianming Palace, but they were all unavailable. Qin Hong and Wu Yu were free. , but those two boys have just refined their souls, and their strength does not allow them to do this.
As for Senior Brother Chen... You must have heard about his temperament from Senior Roe Deer Owl. Senior Brother Chen is a rare and humble gentleman. If he can bring back that spiritual root, Mr. Teacher will not leave this job to him. We’re here to do it.”
Wang Li noticed something was wrong with his words, so he said: "Senior brother, I can go, but you have to explain to me what's so fishy about that fairy apricot plant?"
Zhong Shiji shook his head and said: "Junior brother is paranoid, how could I harm you? That's the case. In fact, we are not the only ones who want spiritual roots, so the owner of Daiyu Fairy Mountain let all forces compete according to their abilities. You Chen Although my senior brother has extraordinary powers, his temperament has always been kind to others. If he was willing to be cruel, if it were me, I would have obtained that spiritual root long ago."
"Then why didn't Senior Brother go to help?"
The more Wang Li listened, the less doubtful he became.
"I said just now that Qin Hong and Wu Yu's strength doesn't allow it. Similarly, my strength doesn't allow it either."
Zhong Shiji shook his sleeves and said: "Because there were too many people competing for the immortal apricot spirit root, the owner of Daiyu Immortal Mountain set up a formation in the mountain and allowed everyone to fight in the formation. In the end, the winner will be determined. Can take away the spiritual roots."
When Wang Li heard this, the arena plot in some stories in the storybook flashed through his mind, and he chuckled: "Dare I ask my senior brother, does the owner of the Immortal Mountain also impose restrictions on the cultivation of those who participate in the fight? Qin Honghe Wu Yu’s strength does not allow him to enter the Yuan Shen at the beginning. Senior Brother, you have become a heavenly being and cannot go there, but Senior Brother Chen can participate in the fight. Then only Dharmakaya cultivators can enter, right?"
"Yes, but not entirely."
Zhong Shiji smiled and said: "In addition, the spirit root person participating in the battle must be the son-in-law of the owner of the fairy mountain."
"son in law?"
Wang Li was stunned for a moment, then he immediately reacted and frowned: "In this case, junior brother is not qualified to compete for spiritual roots. Senior brother is still..."
"Haha! Don't worry, junior brother, I haven't finished speaking yet."
Zhong Shiji laughed loudly and said: "You don't have to worry about becoming a son-in-law. Senior brother Chen became a aunt-in-law there. Now they don't want to marry anyone. It's just that some people who participate in martial arts are not fastidious. If they can't beat themselves, they will find someone to help.
In the middle, Senior Brother Chen suffered some losses, but fortunately he did not lose.
When you were still offering sacrifices to the Alchemy Ao in Xiaolitian, we people sent him many magic weapons, and then those shameless guys followed suit, and now a stalemate has formed. This matter is now more than just a fight for spiritual roots.
It's so simple, but it also affects everyone's face.
So it's better to give those people something harsh and let them retreat before the difficulties, otherwise there may be no results in ten or a hundred years. The only one who can do this and is qualified to come and help is you, junior brother.
I think junior brother should understand what I mean."
Wang Li immediately understood what he meant, and said: "May I ask my senior brother, what are the forces competing for the spiritual root, and which party should my junior brother take action against?"
"Junior brother, be happy!"
Zhong Shiji patted Wang Li on the shoulder, "You have to remember that none of the sons-in-law of the owner of the Immortal Mountain can die. Otherwise, even if we invite the spirit roots back, Senior Brother Chen will not be a good person in the future. Now he is still fighting for the chance of the spirit roots.
Wang Li was a little surprised when he first heard about Wangxian Pavilion, but as the names came out from his senior brother's mouth, his expression gradually became serious.
~~~~~
Qianyuan City, in Lanxin Garden.
In the garden, Wang Li was sitting in front of his mother and Mrs. Wu. They were talking. There was a futon-sized cloud floating around, with a round black cat lying on it, its head curled up, sleeping soundly.
At this time, a maid came in and said: "Two madams, young master, and the two stewards Zeng Yi and Zeng Yu are already here."
Wang Li took out a jade jar and poured out a pill. The floating cloud immediately came to him. The black cat on it stood up, with a pair of round amber eyes open, and a triangle under its neck.
With his silver hair, he raised his foot and put it on his shoulder, and rubbed his head hard again and again.
"I'll give you this bottle. Go and fetch the two stewards and their families to Jin Ao."
Wang Li handed the elixir and jade jar to Black Cat's mouth and said.
"Okay! Master!"
The black cat uttered human words like a child's voice, swallowed the pill, then kicked up one leg, flicked its claws into the silver hair under its neck, and unexpectedly pulled out seven or eight jade pendants, "Hmm~ This
They are the forbidden talismans of Yuandu Palace and Qianming Palace, this is Master Wu’s jade slip, this is Master Qin’s jade slip, this is the master’s… I found it, my cicada talisman is here!”
With a flash of inspiration, the jade jar in Wang Li's hand disappeared, and the black cat followed the black cat and floated out of the garden, carried by the clouds.
This scene made the mothers next to them, Wang and Wu, burst into laughter.
Wang Li stood up and said, "Mom, aunt, let's go too."
~~~~~~
In the Babao Pond, a giant dragon is swimming slowly at the bottom of the pond.
The roe owl banner appeared in its true form, squatting on the top of a large dragon pillar, staring closely at the pond below, with a long mouth and drooling water.
"Senior, instead of guarding me here, you might as well go to Guanghan Palace and eat the few Moon-Screaming Demonic Wolves you deserve."
Wang Li's voice suddenly sounded from the Babao Pond.
"I don't want to either, but if I don't drink the dragon's blood, nothing I eat will taste good! Aren't you done yet?"
Roe Owl Banner stuck out his tongue and rolled his saliva and said.
"about there."
Accompanied by the roar of the dragon, a giant dragon emerged from the water, with a sinuous body, teeth and claws, and golden scales shining all over its body. It swam around the Babao Pond, shrunk sharply, and turned into Wang Li's appearance when it landed.
