He tried not to let the feeling of waiting affect his practice.
Time went on like this, but the boots never fell.
He somewhat understood that what was a big deal to him might be nothing in the eyes of the big sect forces. They, including Yanju, might think that killing a monk from Supreme and Sanqing was nothing.
What an extraordinary thing, but in the eyes of people with a higher level, it is just one of the hundreds of casualties caused by the Sword Vein and the Dharma Vein every year.
This is originally a kind of exercise for the major forces to train the lower-level monks. There will be no organized revenge, and they will only deal with it when the situation arises. He is a bit too sentimental!
"Do you want to change the environment? Fight with different types of magicians? This might improve your combat experience?"
One day, after Lou Xiaoyi finished practicing, Ah Jiu said seductively.
Lou Xiaoyi was very wary, "Am I doing something for you, Mr. Jiu, or is it a training ground? Did you teleport me there? Who is my opponent? How do I get back?"
Listening to this kid's series of questions, Ah Jiu knew that this was troublesome. It wanted to copy its master's success to this kid, because even after tens of thousands of years, he actually didn't understand much about the human cultivation system and what he could do.
It is limited and can only follow the rules and regulations. This is the only thing it can do.
"You're not doing things for me! What else do I need a little Zhuji like you to do? If I'm willing, a lot of high-level sword cultivators are willing to help me!
It's another realm. Well, if your body can't go through it, there's only a spiritual body in the past. You will be a pagoda spirit in a space similar to a pagoda, responsible for measuring the true level of human monks. There will never be danger, there are countless opponents, and all kinds of strange things...
…”
Lou Xiaoyi understood a little bit. It was a bit like dreaming. The spirit was there but the body was not. Some experiences might be left behind. In addition...
"Is this your request, Master Jiu?"
Ah Jiu was a little discouraged, "This is not a request, and it has nothing to do with me. It's up to you whether you go or not. I'm just providing you with such an opportunity."
Lou Xiaoyi thought for a while, his tone was soft, but his attitude was firm,
"Master Jiu, I don't want to go! Because what I lack now is not combat experience, but combat strength!
The spirit has passed but the body cannot survive, which means that I can't improve my cultivation! I can't improve my body either! Apart from experience, I can't think of anything I can improve in the place you mentioned?
What I urgently need to practice now is cultivation, sword spirit, spirit, etc. These are all inseparable from the body, so..."
Ah Jiu was disappointed, he also knew that this moment and that moment, practice cannot be replicated!
When it was sent to its owner, it was a very natural behavior. It was forced to do nothing. At that time, it was just a small foundation-building spiritual treasure. But now, it is no longer what it was back then. The marks of axe-cutting are too
Heavy.
Moreover, there are no ferocious Sirius men in the place now, but it is peaceful. The test is no longer a test of life and death, but more of a sympathy point. It is truly the majesty of the upper world. In terms of danger, it cannot be compared.
Now the five rings!
Human beings can only truly train themselves in dangerous adversities. In this sense, this boy's choice is absolutely right!
It found that even after living for tens of thousands of years, its trump cards were very limited, and it didn't have much help even for a small foundation building, which made it very discouraged.
Although it is still very young in Lingbao, it feels a little old, old and useless.
"You should always carry your locator marker with you so that you can hide in when you are in danger. There are not many people who can spot you in the Fifth Ring Road..."
Lou Xiaoyi expressed his sincere thanks, but he had his own ideas.
"Of course I will carry the positioning mark. I have all my belongings on me! But Master Jiu, you should know that it takes a certain amount of time to use it. Moreover, if I regard it as the last resort, then my achievements in swordsmanship will never be achieved."
Also limited!
I am not a single-minded person, and if I am surrounded by a large number of opponents, I do not mind using the last resort, but if I still have a chance, I should not put everything on the back road, which is not good for my practice!"
Ah Jiu has nothing to say...
Lou Xiaoyi rejected Ah Jiu's kindness, and it was not because he didn't trust Master Jiu. He had been in Xuanyuan for tens of thousands of years, how could he come up to blackmail him for a small foundation?
He just habitually doesn't want to take advantage of too many people, and doesn't want to lose too many favors, which will make him unable to control himself.
He can refuse Master Jiu's invitation, but he can't refuse the sect's order!
Nearly eight years after arriving in Spearhead Town, the Ancient Tower Array sent him the following message for the first time:
In Anding City, a pure calligrapher and a foundation-building disciple of Wan Jingliu intends to surrender. It is related to the mining share of mercury and lead mines in the Red River Valley. I have ordered you to go to the rescue as soon as possible without any mistake!
The following is the specific background about this mission...
Lou Xiaoyi sighed. He actually wanted to ask, would the time for this mission also be deducted from the mission of guarding Spearhead Town?
Anding City is a small city in the Western Region. In terms of sphere of influence, it is within the influence of Wan Jingliu. From a geographical point of view, it is indeed not far from Spearhead Town. If you are in a hurry, it is reasonable to send him to take action nearby.
Spear Point Town was originally one of the few places within Xuanyuan's sphere of influence that bordered Wolf Ridge. It was a relatively forward and isolated place. To the east was Wolf Ridge, to the north was Jialan's sphere of influence, and not far to the south was Wanjingliu's territory.
Control range.
There is nothing surprising about Anding City. It is also an area where the spheres of influence of Xuanyuan and Wanjingliu meet. It is controlled by Wanjingliu. However, there is a river valley near Anding City called the Red River Valley. It was unknown before, but it has been rumored recently.
It contains rich mercury and lead resources, so there was a dispute.
The location of the Red River Valley is very tricky. It is at the intersection of power between the two sides, so the issue of how to mine it depends on the vision of both parties!
Does Xuanyuan have more underground mineral deposits and how are they distributed? Or does Wanjingliu have more abundant reserves and what is the trend of the mineral veins? This determines the production and distribution of this mineral deposit!
The place is not big, so it is difficult for both parties to dig their own mines, which is more likely to cause disputes over the distribution of interests between the two parties!
In the Five Rings Continent, there are many such precedents, because mining is entrusted to mortals to organize and carry out. For their own interests, the conflicts between the two sides are almost irreconcilable in close proximity. Fighting and group fights are commonplace, and people are really dead.
Naturally, everyone has to find his own mother, well, the cultivation forces, so is it possible that there will be another war between cultivation sects between the cultivation forces because of these mortal casualties?
Small forces can do this, but it is completely unacceptable to large forces like Xuanyuan and Wan Jingliu!
Therefore, the more popular approach in this case is to have a mortal businessman be responsible for mining, and the two cultivation sects will share it in proportion!
The question arises, who gets more? Who gets less?
