After that, Li Kezhou went to the shop without a signboard again and exchanged it for forty fairy jade.
Two thousand magic stones, if in the hands of others, can be exchanged for twenty magic stones, but because he has the command talisman of this mysterious chamber of commerce, all fairy jade can be purchased at half price, which allows him to save a lot of magic stones.
stone.
After a period of time, he used ten magic stones to rent a place to stay, and absorbed the sixty fairy jades with great concentration. As for Honglian, he also found a quiet place, relying on the Jade of Breaking the Illusion,
Concentrate on breaking through the later stages.
Time flies, one month later.
Li Kezhou walked out of the retreat room.
During this month, he absorbed all the sixty immortal jades at a rate of two per day, turning them into part of his Jianxia power.
After absorbing sixty immortal jades, he clearly felt that his strength had improved to a higher level. Although there was still an unpredictable distance from the mid-term peak, it was still a good start.
He came down from the three-story inn. The first floor was a bustling wine shop. There were only three or two people at least, and there were many groups of three or five. They were obviously gangs of wanderers in the prison.
As soon as Li Kezhou said this, he saw Hong Lian in the middle, surrounded by a group of people.
There were also a few familiar faces among them, former members of the Blazing Red Lotus. What surprised him was that even the Sand Escaper who was good at burrowing into the ground was also there.
Honglian felt someone was looking at him, looked towards the stairs, his eyes lit up, he stood up and waved to him.
Li Kezhou didn't like crowded and noisy environments, but he still walked over.
He came in front of everyone, glanced at a few familiar faces, and said with a smile: "You guys are lucky enough to have entered the city alive."
Facing his kind ridicule, the bearded deputy commander laughed loudly: "Speaking of that day, we were able to survive, thanks to you, brother, who lured those gangsters away for us so that they had no time to kill us. Otherwise, where would we be?"
There is a way to survive."
The Escaper quickly said: "Brother, I'm not asking for credit. It's all my credit that they came here alive. You don't know how much hardship I put in."
The gopher-like sand-walker used to try to survive from his hands by trying to get relatives, and he was always the eldest brother, but now he is getting along well.
Li Kezhou looked at the other people, and among them there were two unfamiliar faces. They were all top-grade sword immortals, and they were all very arrogant, with an arrogant look that ignored everyone. Li Kezhou came over, and everyone, including Hong Lian,
They all stood up to greet each other, but these two people were the only ones who sat as firm as a mountain.
Seeing his gaze, Honglian introduced him in time: "Let me introduce to you, these two immortals are members who have just joined me in the past few days."
"It turns out they are two immortals, nice to meet you!!"
Li Kezhou made acquaintance with the two of them just to give Honglian face.
But what they got in return was the arrogant nostrils of the two people, who didn't show any expression at all, and didn't even look at him twice.
One of the handsome-looking men looked at Honglian with blazing eyes: "Honglian, I promised you that I would develop the Flame Red Lotus into a top-notch demon hunting group in the Prison. One of the key points is that we cannot just accept them casually.
Some cats and dogs from the wild."
An angry look suddenly appeared on Honglian's eyebrows. Just when he was about to say something, Li Kezhou said first, "Honglian! It turns out that your cultivation level has reached a later stage."
As soon as he interrupted her, Honglian's angry expression softened slightly, and a hint of apology flashed in her eyes.
She naturally knew that Li Kezhou suddenly said this to prevent her from falling out with her subordinates.
Now her Fiery Red Lotus is too weak and she urgently needs a group of experts. If she only relies on the few old team members who have entered the city and the cultivation strength of the middle-grade Sword Immortal, she will not be able to survive in this desolate prison.
She nodded with a smile: "I broke through more than half a month ago. You have been in retreat, so I didn't disturb you."
Li Kezhou smiled and nodded.
He has personally experienced Honglian's strength, so he knows very well that although she is not the supreme powerhouse, she is definitely an invincible master in the same realm. With the breakthrough to the late stage, it is no longer possible for three or two to be in the realm of top-grade sword immortals.
is her opponent.
This also meant that Honglian had the capital to survive in the wilderness. Thinking of this, he felt a little relieved in his heart.
At this time! A sneer came from a pair of nostrils: "Hmph! Retreating in seclusion is ridiculous. A middle-grade swordsman still practices seclusion. If I give you five hundred years, can you break through our realm?"
"I'm so tired of seeing it!!"
The two people who had just joined the Honglian team sang in harmony with each other, and their voices were strange and strange.
The two of them prided themselves on their cultivation, and looked down on Li Kezhou, who was only in the middle stage of cultivation. The woman they longed for actually greeted such an ant with a smile. The two of them were a little disgusted, and they had no reason to want to make him look bad.
Li Kezhou smiled slightly and didn't care about the cynicism of the two people.
But the more he behaved like this, the more the two of them thought he was subdued. The handsome man said eagerly to Honglian: "Honglian! Don't be deceived by some incompetent people. Look at him..."
He pointed at Li Kezhou with disgust on his face.
"This person's cultivation level is unsightly, so he's just lucky. If he entered this Turtle Moving City, he wouldn't be able to survive even a day in the wilderness. He is trying his best to please you, and his purpose is the most obvious. He just wants to join me, Lieyanhong."
Lian, you are a fan of the authorities, I can see it clearly..."
Several old members of the Flame Red Lotus were too angry to speak. This person's words full of sarcasm and contempt were undoubtedly talking about them. Their current cultivation levels were also only in the middle stage.
Only the deserter looked at the man with a grin, as if he was looking at a clown.
He was well aware of Li Kezhou's strength, but he was ignorant of the two people in front of him and just looked at them as if they were watching a good show.
As soon as this person finished speaking, another person followed closely and said: "Honglian! What he said is right. If I, Lieyan Honglian, want to grow bigger, I can't just recruit such a burdensome person into the team."
Honglian was angry and just about to speak when a voice suddenly came from behind: "A burden? It turns out that I, the sixth apostle of Nine Snakes, is just a burden-like character in the eyes of some people."
"Nine Snakes?"
Everyone stood up suddenly and saw a man hiding in a cloak. This man was very strange. He was clearly in the cloak, but when he looked inside, there was only deep and bottomless darkness.
Behind this man, there were seven more people. These people were dressed in the same way, and all of them had the Hydra seal tattooed on their cloaks.
"You...are the snakes in hell that everyone has called you in recent years!" The handsome man who had just finished mocking Li Kezhou changed his face in an instant, and beads of sweat could be seen on his forehead.
The other person was even more helpless and stepped back in fear.
It's no wonder they were so frightened. They just thought that these nine snakes had caused too much murder in the prison in recent years. Wherever they passed, rivers of blood flowed.
The most terrifying battle was when a group of eight of them faced off against a first-class demon hunting group, including nearly twenty top-grade swordsmen. Faced with such a huge power deficit, they ended up killing them all.
Er Jing, someone saw this scene from a distance. The Nine Snakes were so vicious that they became famous in the Desolate Prison.
