Immortality: Begin by Manipulating Your Shadow

Chapter 71 The Knight in the Afterglow
Deep in the alley.

After turning several corners, Lin Yue came to an inconspicuous wooden door.

On the wooden door, the wooden paint has peeled off a lot, and it looks a little old.

...

Knock, knock, knock.

Lin Yue knocked lightly on the door.

"Good rain knows the season."

Behind the wooden door came a low voice.

"Walking will wet your shoes."

Lin Yue replied softly.

Grumble.

The wooden door was opened. A masked man glanced at Lin Yue and moved away.

Lin Yue didn't delay, and carried him inside.

...

Shortly after.

The wooden door opened again.

Lin Yue came out of the wooden door, heard the sound of the door closing behind him, and walked out of the alley with a calm expression.

As a scout, Lin Yue naturally knew the sources of all kinds of information.

The place I just went to is an underground force that sells information. Every city has this kind of underground force.

Knowing everything, it is not difficult to find.

If you don't understand, it is indeed difficult to get in touch.

At this time, Lin Yue had already obtained the rough information about the Valley of Souls and the Qingmu School.

I also have a general understanding of why the Aoki faction needs to recruit fighters from the outside world.

The Aoki Sect established its sect based on alchemy. Although it is not comparable to Lei Jianmen in Xijing, it is still a little famous.

Even though the entire Aoki Sect, including all the top and bottom, only has more than a hundred monks.

But even if everyone is not an alchemist, he is also a pharmacist.

This also makes the Qingmu faction's popularity not bad all the time, many small sects have deals with the Qingmu faction on alchemy and healing.

However, ever since the head of the Cyanwood Sect had some conflicts with the young master of the Valley of Thousand Souls when he was bidding for the elixir at an auction house in Fangshi.

The situation changed a little bit, and troubles continued.

There is no information about the details. After all, this kind of underground force also has the limit of its capabilities.

However, the strength of the ninth level of the Qingmu faction's head in the foundation period is contained in the data.

As for the Valley of Thousand Souls, Lin Yue frowned.

What the Valley of Thousand Souls insists on is not considered a force, but more like a gathering place for monks of three religions and nine streams of magic.

They are all vicious and vicious people, in order to defend against the moralists of the famous and decent sects, they gathered together and hugged each other to keep warm.

When it comes to overall strength, in this land of Xijing, it is only weaker than Lei Jianmen.

The owner of the Valley of Thousand Souls is also a monk at the Golden Core stage.

Moreover, this Valley Master of Myriad Souls is not the same as the heads of those sects.

If the Valley of the Thousand Souls is compared to a city, the owner of the Valley of the Thousand Souls is equivalent to the owner of the city in the Valley of the Thousand Souls.

Squinting his eyes, Lin Yue made a decision in his heart.

Return to Shun Xin Building again.

After taking a look and walking away for a while, no one accepted the reward task offered by the Qingmu faction, so Lin Yue chose another one-star and six-rank killing strange task.

...

Time flies by.

In a flash, another ten days passed.

These days, Lin Yue has been paying attention to the reward tasks offered by the Qingmu faction. Although there are people who accept them, there are not many.

More than ten days have passed, and there are still six places for rewards left in the task column of the [-]-star [-]-Rank.

At this time, Lin Yue had successfully broken through the seventh level of the Qi refining period and stepped into the eighth level of the Qi refining period.

...

Come out from the backyard.

The information on the jade plate has been changed again.

Lin Yue came to the task bar of one star and seven ranks, and glanced at it. There was also a reward notice from the Qingmu faction, and there were still six places.

Obviously, the reception situation is not much different from the one-star six-rank side.

However, the reward announcement has not been withdrawn yet, it seems that the Qingmu faction also has some strength.

You know, if the benefactor is gone, the reward announcement will usually be withdrawn.

As for the task rewards that were prepaid in advance, whether Shun Xin Lou would return them to the successor of the benefactor is open to discussion.

...

Take back your thoughts.

Lin Yue began to browse other reward tasks.

It has been nearly a month since he came to Shunxin Building. At this time, Lin Yue not only broke through two small realms in cultivation, but also experienced a great transformation in his whole being.

Now, the crimson blood not only stained his hands, but even began to seep into his bone marrow...

quickly.

Lin Yue's eyes fell on an ordinary killing task.

Only accepting tasks that are one level lower than your own cultivation level is not just because the task target is easier to kill...

····
Time flies.

Another 20 days passed in a blink of an eye.

When Lin Yue returned to the mission hall again, his aura was completely different from when he first came to Shunxin Building more than a month ago.

For nearly two months, only Lin Yue knew what he had experienced.

Only he himself knows how many lives have ended under his hands during this period of time.

But even so, his cultivation level was still not as he expected, and he had stepped into the ninth stage of the Qi refining period.

With the improvement of the realm of cultivation, the speed of improvement also began to slow down.

Lin Yue conservatively estimated that it would take about ten days to break through the current level of cultivation.

Lin Yue couldn't help frowning slightly.

Lin Yue squinted his eyes as he looked at the one-star eighth-rank task bar with only one reward left.

Then his eyes fixed, and he motioned for the maid to take it down.

...

...

In the whole of Xijing, Lei Jianmen is the strongest.

However, under Lei Jianmen, there are still many small forces and sects, relying on their own unique advantages, they are also flourishing in a small area.

Aoki faction.

It is more than 300 miles away from Yongxing City, located on Qingyun Mountain, and started as a elixir refiner and a pharmacist. Within a hundred miles, he is quite well-known.

Many small factions and forces, who suffered some injuries during the battle, would often come to seek medical treatment.

Many sects and minor forces who are not good at alchemy are frequent visitors of the Aoki Sect.

The Qingmu faction is thriving in this area relying on good alchemy skills and pharmacist inheritance.

However, the days of the Aoki faction are really not easy these days.

The young master of Wanhun Valley, with some minions, came to trouble the Qingmu faction whenever he had something to do.

This not only made the Qingmu faction annoyed by being harassed, even those small sects who wanted to come to them were also blocked.

The income of the Aoki faction fell off a cliff during this period.

Although relying on savings, it can be supported for a long time, but it is naturally difficult to support it in the long run.

However, the Aoki faction also has some headaches now.

Basically everyone who could ask for help has asked for help, and the reward task of Shunxin Building has also been released.

However, there were very few responses.

No way, in this land of Xijing, as long as there are some experienced monks, which one can not frown when they hear the name of the Valley of Thousand Souls?

Even Lei Jianmen can't do anything about the Valley of Thousand Souls, only the well water does not violate the river water.

Not to mention those small sects and small forces, naturally they can hide if they can, and stay far away.

After all, without the Cyanwood Sect, there would be no place to buy pills and ask pharmacists to heal their wounds.

Under such circumstances, the Qingmu faction could only give up a lot of spiritual fields, guard the mountain gate, and rely on the mountain gate formation as the basis to tighten their defense range.

...

In the afterglow of the setting sun.

Two waves of monks were fighting, and the streamer brought by the spells and magic tools splashed in all directions amidst the sound of the fighting, embellished with dots of crystal, making the picture a little more beautiful.

Tatata~!

At this time, the sound of horseshoes galloping from far to near fell into the ears of the monks on both sides of the war.

"Woo~~!"

As the sound of the horse's hooves stopped, a figure pulled the reins, and skillfully stabilized the horse on the periphery of the battle field.

The raised front hooves brought up a cloud of dust.
