This mission was mainly due to the fact that Yiyi was lacking in strength and it was a good opportunity to train her. Mubei decided to just provide guidance and assistance.
"The phantom sword technique and phantom body technique you practice are all based on agility. The emphasis is on the word spirit. Don't pay too much attention to sharpness and speed."
Mubei Road.
Yiyi nodded obediently and faced the one-horned lion in front of her with her sword in hand.
Several hours passed by. Under Mu Bei's guidance, Yiyi made rapid progress and was able to fight against six one-horned lions at the same time.
…
Imperial City, Yin Family...
"Brother, how about it? Have you dealt with that bastard?"
In a study room, Yin Jinyu asked Yin Yesao expectantly.
Yin Ye was dressed in purple, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and shook his head: "Li Gao and several others died in his hands in the Discipline Pavilion, but the Discipline Pavilion never punished him!"
"How can it be?!"
Yin Jinyu didn't believe it, with a strong look of anger on his face.
Yin Ye looked at him and said, "This person named Mu Bei is certainly not a simple person. Please let this matter go for now."
"Let it go?! Brother! He tied me up and beat me in front of so many people. Where to put my face?! I want him to die! I want him to die immediately!"
Yin Jinyu said ferociously.
Yin Ye said: "I am not saying not to kill him, but after this incident, we have to investigate carefully before taking action."
"Brother, our Yin family is one of the seven major families in the Imperial City. The emperor's elders have to give face. What do we need to investigate? Can't we just find another opportunity to kill him?"
Yin Jinyu's face was filled with fierceness.
"Being cautious is not a bad thing after all." Yin Ye said, his eyes as sharp as knives: "Don't worry, he will definitely die. Whether it is to stand up for you or to protect the reputation of the Yin family, he will die!"
…
As night falls, the sky is filled with stars, and the Luoyuan Mountains fall into darkness. Only a few stars shine through the gaps in the branches and leaves into the forest.
Mubei raised a fire and Heyi leaned on it to rest.
"Brother, you are so awesome! With just a few words of guidance, I feel like my Phantom Sword Technique and Phantom Body Technique have improved a lot!"
Mu Yiyi hugged Mu Bei's arm and said.
"That's why we have the root of wisdom."
Mu Bei smiled.
Mu Yiyi had a happy face, being praised like this by Mu Bei felt like eating honey.
The next day, Mu Yiyi went into battle again. The sword in her hand was light and her steps were graceful. She could deal with ten one-horned lions at the same time.
Mu Bei guided her from the side and passed on some of the essentials of cultivation and experience in fighting enemies.
This made Yiyi make amazing progress, and soon she could deal with fifteen one-horned lions at the same time.
"Don't kill them yet, use them to practice your skills, and then kill them when you can deal with twenty of them at the same time."
he said.
"Um!"
Mu Yiyi responded obediently.
She has a pretty and innocent face, is wearing a white dress, and has a serious face when performing the Phantom Sword Technique, making her look very cute.
Mu Bei smiled, then crossed his legs and started running "One Sword to End the World" to sort out his realm.
Martial arts is the first major realm of spiritual practice, and it is the cornerstone. Every step must be taken extremely solidly.
Soon, another day passed.
On this day, his blood-containing peak cultivation level was as stable as a rock, as unbreakable as the stars in the sky.
"Are you going to Xuanling Cave now?"
He thought in his mind, then shook his head and rejected the idea.
The Xuanling Cave was full of spiritual energy, and the opportunity to practice for three consecutive days was so precious that he did not want to use it casually.
He planned to go there when his cultivation reached the Blood Accumulation Perfection, and use the spiritual energy in it to break through to the Qi-nourishing state.
He stopped running the "One Sword Peerless" technique and looked forward, only to see Yiyi shuttle between the twenty-two one-horned lions like an elf.
"good."
Mu Bei praised.
The effect of the experience has been achieved, so he asked Yiyi to take action and quickly kill all the one-horned lions in this area.
Afterwards, the two returned to the Imperial Court to hand in the task, and each received five points of credits.
Mu Yiyi spat out her sweet tongue and said, "To graduate, you have to meet at least 10,000 credits. It's really difficult!"
Mu Bei smiled and asked Yiyi to go back.
There are only five days of classes in the Imperial Academy every month. Students spend most of their time practicing on their own, and they can arrange the next few days freely.
The streets of Imperial City extend in all directions, with people coming and going, and the two of them soon returned to the southern area where they rented a villa.
At this moment, there were a lot of barking dogs coming from a courtyard ahead, and at the same time, there was a familiar voice.
"Shi Zhenhao?"
Mu Yiyi was suspicious.
Mu Bei nodded: "It's a bit similar."
He walked forward and pushed open the door of the other courtyard. He saw a group of dogs in the courtyard. A young man was surrounded by dogs and was feeding the dogs.
Isn't it Shi Zhenhao?
Shi Zhenhao turned his head and said in surprise: "It's you!"
"Why do you keep so many dogs by yourself?"
Mu Bei stepped forward and finally understood the reason for this guy's so-called "high expenses" before.
There are at least a thousand dogs in this yard. Isn’t it possible that the daily food expenses are not high?
"It's not that I want to raise them. These little guys have been abandoned and wander around in the cold. If I don't raise them, it will be difficult for them to survive."
Shi Zhenhao was helpless.
This made Mu Bei and the two of them a little surprised. Mu Yiyi said, "Can't you tell? You, a deceiver and abductor, can be so caring."
"After all, I was raised by a mother and a dog. Seeing that they are quite friendly, I will try my best."
Shi Zhenhao laughed.
Mu Bei nodded, fully understanding and agreeing with this.
"The rent for this yard is at least 50,000 taels a month, and you have to take care of both training and their food. It's quite hard for you usually."
He patted him on the shoulder.
Shi Zhenhao said: "There is no rent, it's free, but these little guys have a big appetite and give them a headache."
"Free rent?"
Mu Bei looked weird.
The owner of this courtyard doesn't mind so many dogs in the courtyard. He has done his utmost to be benevolent, but he still doesn't charge rent?
Shi Zhenhao Suran said: "The master of the courtyard is a good man, a very good man!"
Mu Bei glanced at him: "Speak humanly."
Shi Zhen Hao Cancan said: "I used an echo conch to record the indescribably beautiful words between him and the prostitute while he was visiting the brothel, and then told him righteously that this was wrong. My sister-in-law would be furious if she found out.
, and then he rented me another courtyard for free."
Mu Bei, Mu Yiyi: "..."
"What you're doing is so cool!"
Mu Bei sighed.
Shi Zhenhao waved his hand and said humbly: "It's all for life. It's not worth eating or showing off."
Mu Bei, Mu Yiyi: "..."
At this time, Shi Zhenhao spoke again: "By the way, an old spiritual mine was discovered in Qingxia Ridge outside the city. After so many years, another spiritual stone may be born. I am about to go there to try it."
Lucky, will you go together? We can take care of each other then."
Mu Bei's eyes moved slightly, is there a spirit stone?
Spiritual stones are a must-have cultivation resource on the path of cultivation. They are priceless but not marketable. Now if he can find some second-grade spiritual stones, he can reach the perfection of the blood-accumulating realm in the shortest time, and then go to the Xuanling Cave to practice, and in one fell swoop
Break into the state of nourishing Qi.
"Go and have a look."
He nodded.
Qingxia Ridge is located dozens of miles away from the Imperial City. The three of them rode horses and arrived there in about half an hour.
The Laoling Mine is located in the central area of Qingxia Ridge. When the three of them arrived at the mine, there were already many people here, heading into the mine one after another.
The three of them walked into the mine. The space inside was dark and there were dozens of manually dug side roads.
After simply finding a mine, the three of them went down to explore and saw many warriors along the way.
The cultivation level of these warriors is not low, and the weakest ones are all in the early stage of Blood Accumulation Realm. Occasionally, one or two Qi Nourishing Realm strongmen can be seen, with strong Qi and blood.
Soon, more than an hour passed. Mu Bei felt subtle fluctuations of spiritual energy. After walking a few dozen feet, he dug up a pile of soil and saw six spiritual stones the size of walnuts lying under the soil. The surface was crystal smooth and filled with spiritual energy.
The fluctuations are very strong.
They are all second-grade spiritual stones!
Among them, three pieces of second grade are medium, and three pieces of second grade are low grade.
"It's been done!"
Shi Zhenhao said excitedly.
There was a little light in Mu Bei's eyes, he took out six spiritual stones and gave Shi Zhenhao a second-grade medium spiritual stone and a second-grade low-grade spiritual stone.
Shi Zhenhao took the two spiritual stones, raised his thumbs and said: "Brother, let's be bright!"
"It should."
Mubei Road.
If this guy hadn't provided information and invited them here, how could he have found these spiritual stones?
Moreover, since the three of them were traveling together, it was naturally most appropriate to share the treasure they found equally.
Whoosh whoosh!
The sound of breaking through the sky suddenly sounded, and three flying knives cut through the sky, extremely fierce.
The three of them quickly retreated and dodged.
"Three little cubs, their reactions are quite fast."
A sneer sounded.
The three of them looked around and saw five men walking from a short distance away. The leader was a bald middle-aged man with a scar on his head.
Shi Zhenhao's expression changed slightly: "Gou Zhong, a small leader of the Liuhe Gang."
"Liuhe Gang?"
"There is an underground force in the Imperial City. The six people in charge are all strong men in the Union Realm, so they are named Liuhe Gang."
Shi Zhenhao explained.
Gou Zhong and his four younger brothers forced him forward and said in a conspiratorial tone: "Hand over the spirit stones honestly and I will spare your lives!"
Behind him, the four younger brothers crossed their arms and looked at Mu Bei and the others teasingly.
"Gou Zhong is in the middle stage of nourishing his energy. We are no match. Let's look for opportunities to escape!"
Shi Zhenhao said in a low voice.
It was also at this time that Mu Bei's eyes fell on a small bag around Gou Zhong's waist, which contained spiritual energy fluctuations.
So, in Shi Zhenhao's stunned eyes, he walked towards Gou Zhong and punched out without any warning.
This punch was so fast that Gouzhong didn't even have time to defend himself before he hit him head-on. He fell to the ground with a bang, bleeding from his mouth and nose, and howling in pain.
"Asshole, you are looking for death!"
The four younger brothers were frightened and angry, and rushed towards Mu Bei together.
Mu Bei punched the first person away, and then swept away the second person with a leg sweep. This person flew backwards in a panic, hitting the two people behind him, and the three of them flew forward a full two feet away.
