Li Yan immediately confirmed that his guess was correct.
The death of a Nascent Soul monk is extremely heartbreaking even for a super sect like the "Holy Demon Palace".
It is estimated that this matter will not take more than three to five years, and it is difficult to get over it so quickly. If the "Holy Demon Palace" does not get the results it needs, it will not let it go easily.
So, next, Li Yan chose to hibernate and began practicing in seclusion...
"Holy Demon City" has monks coming in and out every day. Some people come in and never go out again, and some people disappear after they go out...
Spring comes, flowers bloom, autumn wind sweeps the leaves, white clouds and gray dogs, but time only lingers for a brief moment... .??.
Time passed by and it was already ten years. Mu Guyue was sitting in the garden.
Her belly was already swollen high, and she looked at the various flowers in the garden that were swaying gently in the wind.
She gently stroked her lower abdomen with her hands, and her slender fingers slowly drew irregular lines through the black dress, but another scene in the spiritual plant garden flashed in her eyes.
Demons have a long lifespan, even if a mortal can live for a hundred or two hundred years, there is no problem.
Therefore, even the mortals of the demon race do not conceive in ten months, but only give birth after one year of pregnancy.
Once the demon mortals embark on the path to immortality and become monks, they embark on a path that defies heaven.
Therefore, under the rules of heaven and earth, it is already very difficult to have blood descendants.
The time it takes for them to conceive a fetus will be longer and they are more likely to die midway, usually taking up to ten years.
Although Mu Guyue has recovered from her injuries since "Swallowing the Demon Abyss" and returned to her clan, she is still haunted by the scene that happened.
At that time, after a period of confusion, she got rid of her original feelings, and she often had boundless murderous intent in her heart.
She has no regrets for Li Yan anymore. She just wants to find this person and kill him immediately, or turn him into an unconscious puppet and keep him beside her.
Whenever she thought of that person doing whatever he wanted on her, Mu Guyue would always feel an inexplicable nausea and filthiness for no reason.
I am of noble demon blood, but that person is just a weak human being who is only worthy of being enslaved by other races.
Her filth must be washed away with the other person's blood to relieve her own humiliation.
But even with her status, she had no confidence in finding a human monk in the vast territory of the White Demon Clan.
The result was indeed the case. She sent many cronies to disperse the jade slips engraved with Li Yan's face to inquire, but in the end no useful information was obtained.
She even used a secret clue to go to the "Holy Demon City" where monks gathered to search, but she still didn't get a satisfactory answer.
All this is due to Li Yan's low profile. Even if he had a fight with Jiao Wuxing on the streets of "Holy Demon City", it was just a glimpse of him.
Every time he went out after that, Li Yan would deliberately cover it up to prevent others from noticing him.
Mu Guyue spent a year in anger, During a practice session a year later, she discovered that she had a physical problem.
She actually found a trace of life in her body. She was surprised and after using her spiritual sense to explore it, she immediately understood the reason.
Mu Guyue was even more angry at that time. How could she be pregnant with the blood of a human monk?
Immediately, his consciousness swept across angrily, wanting to directly shatter the newly born and awakened life.
But when her consciousness swept over, the life that was barely the size of a fingernail actually conveyed a sense of joy to her.
And she also felt strong power from this little life, and a feeling of connection with her own blood.
For a moment, Mu Guyue's murderous intention was extinguished for the most part, but there was a voice deep in her heart that kept scolding her.
"Kill him, kill him! This is a scoundrel of inferior blood, kill him, kill him quickly!"
She clenched her silver teeth and used her magic power several times to shatter the opponent, but the waves of joy coming from her consciousness prevented her murderous intention from being condensed into a needle.
A feeling of care arose in her heart that made her feel ridiculous.
Once this emotion appeared, Mu Guyue became more and more hesitant. This hesitation lasted for several days.
In the end, she still remembered the appearance of that hateful human monk on her body, and how shy she was in asking for and rejoicing in every possible way, which made Mu Guyue have murderous intentions again.
She closed her eyes and turned her consciousness to her belly again, intending to kill it with one blow and not care about it anymore.
The moment her consciousness penetrated her lower abdomen, her consciousness froze with a look of astonishment. In just a few days, the breath of life had become several times stronger.
Except for not much change in size, as soon as her consciousness came, the other person seemed to be sensing it, and the beat in her abdomen became even more cheerful.
Mu Guyue seemed to hear a "Hey" sound in her consciousness.
In this hallucinatory voice, her cold arrogance and ruthlessness turned into confusion and helplessness...
After that, Mu Guyue went to the deep sea several times, but even though she had returned to her peak, she still could not break through the sub-cave called "Tianling Cave".
Every time she passed by, she would stay there for a while, but the aura of the human monk never appeared again...
The flowers in front of Mu Guyue were suddenly blown by a gust of wind, and the swaying brought her thoughts back from a long time ago.
Her hands were still gently stroking her abdomen, and her slender fingers occasionally curled around her.
This life has that person's bloodline. When one day she is promoted to a god, she will be able to use the fetal essence and blood to go to heaven and earth to find that human race, and then kill that person with her own hands.
Mu Guyue has not been out for several years. Apart from practicing, she just sits quietly like this, occasionally subconsciously using her spiritual consciousness to explore the fetus in her belly.
No one would suspect her if she didn't show up in the clan.
It is normal for a monk not to show up in front of others for not only ten years, but also fifty or a hundred years. Especially for a Nascent Soul monk, it is extremely normal for him to remain in seclusion for hundreds of years.
Today, during the practice, the fetus kicked more and more violently, which disturbed her so much that she had to end the respiration in a hurry.
Calculating the time, I think it will only be a few days before delivery.
"Ten years already? Human boy, please don't die!"
Mu Guyue said softly, her mood at this moment was extremely complicated.
In the past ten years, the fetus of Divine Consciousness has grown up day by day, and her thinking has gradually changed with the changes of the fetus.
Is she really still willing to do the plan she made back then? Use her blood and essence to pursue the human monk!!
Thinking, thinking, Mu Guyue's consciousness naturally sank into the life breath beating in her belly. Some of her obsessions were still there, but she didn't realize that they had faded...
The blue clouds and the flowing wind accompanied each other from the sky, and then returned to the other side of the sky. Another thirty years passed by in a hurry.
On this day, in a certain courtyard in the "Holy Demon City", suddenly a light flashed violently for several times in a room, and the house shook. After a few breaths, it slowly returned to normal.
Not long after, the door of the room opened gently, and a somewhat rotten atmosphere rushed out from the room.
Then, a figure slowly walked out of the room.
He looked up at the sky. Through the dense leaves, there were spots of sunlight shining on him, causing him to squint his eyes unconsciously.
Wearing a green robe, her long black hair fell down, covering most of her face.
Even though this person is very tall, his black hair is still long and drags to the ground.
Her long black hair was scattered in front of her forehead, and between her hair, her half-closed eyes slowly adapted to the light, and returned to normal after a breath. They were a pair of pitch-black eyes, as bright as stardust.
The man in green robe looked at the sky above behind the thick leaves that blocked the sun, took a deep breath of the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, and suddenly there was a black light shining on his body.
With a sound of "Bang!", a wave of air exploded outside him, causing the branches and leaves of several big trees in the courtyard to sway wildly, and dust on the ground to fill the sky.
The next moment, the man in green robe raised his hand, rolled up his sleeves, and threw away all the smoke and dust that had just filled the air.
In the courtyard, a clear and bright scene was restored in an instant.
But at this moment, this man's long hair has disappeared, leaving only a few inches of short black hair, like a monk who has been a monk for more than a month.
His long hair was gone, revealing an ordinary face and a pair of dark eyes, which gave him the feeling of being as deep as the ocean and unable to look directly into his ordinary face.
This person is none other than Li Yan, who has been in seclusion for decades.
At this time, he looked His appearance has not changed at all compared to forty years ago.
The spiritual power fluctuations on his body were almost invisible. Apart from his deep eyes, he looked more and more like a mortal standing there.
He looked around and saw that everything had not changed much as it had been decades ago. There was a formation in operation in the courtyard, and there was no dust and it was covered deeply with miscellaneous leaves.
Li Yan walked slowly to the foot of a big tree in the courtyard and sat down on the stone bench.
For forty years, he entered the room and never left it.
He told Su Yuan two things before retreating. One was that if he retreated for more than nine years, he would pass a jade bottle to the sect leader Xing Jie using a small teleportation circle.
The jade bottle was sealed with his magic power, so Su Yuan would definitely not be able to open it.
Li Yan left a total of six jade bottles, and he asked Su Yuan to send a jade bottle back to the clan every nine years as long as he stayed in seclusion.
If all six jade bottles are used up, you can come over and try to wake him up.
Li Yan left two antidotes in each jade bottle, both for Shuang Wuyan, plus the ones originally given to Xingbo, for a total of seventy years.
Li Yan felt that it was enough and he should be out of seclusion by then.
He did not ask Su Yuan to pass all the antidotes to Xingbo at once. Although Xingbo was a sophisticated person, Li Yan had always been more meticulous in doing things.
Shuang Wuyan has been in "Luo Xing Valley" for a long time and is familiar with everything, so it's better to be more careful.
Another thing is that he requested that the attic room where he originally lived should not be used by others.
Su Yuan went over to check every once in a while to see if there were any transmission symbols or the like.
If there is, it must be sent over as soon as possible, even if it only disturbs his cultivation.
Because that was where the position of Zhao Min's transmission notes was at that time. Later, he never contacted Zhao Min again, and it was impossible to change the position.
Regarding Li Yan's arrangement, Su Yuan was a mature man, so he didn't ask the reason at all and just followed it.
Li Yan sat on the stone bench and thought about it. This time, he had already refined the last drop of "Immortal Phoenix" essence and blood, but it had not reached the estimated late-stage stage of the golden elixir.
This was beyond Li Yan's expectation. He broke through to the middle stage of the Golden Elixir in about seven years of seclusion, and then spent a lot of time to stabilize it.
In the remaining time, he continued to refine the remaining essence and blood power, and at the same time practiced hard on the "Guishui True Scripture". In the end, he still failed to break through the late stage of the Golden Elixir and fell into a bottleneck period.
The "Qiongqi Purgatory Technique" has also reached the third level of peak cultivation, and can no longer advance further.
His current physical body is at least twice as powerful as what it was forty years ago. At that time, Li Yan's physical body was no match for the fake infant monks.
Now if he were to face the "Old Dragon Dragon" from back then, and the two sides were fighting each other with only their physical bodies, Li Yan would easily beat him into several pieces.
Of course, this was a hard challenge without any tricks. If the opponent used magic and poison, Li Yan might not be able to easily win against him.
