The Xu family follows Taoism and seeks longevity

Chapter 396: Learning the secret: troubled times

After making an agreement with his ancestor, he left Baocui Tower and prepared to visit Shopkeeper Xi.

When he came to the street and looked at the slightly crowded street, he was a little surprised. There seemed to be too many people. Almost all of them were caught up with the exchange meeting held by the Xu family at that time, but now there is obviously no event held, and there are so many people. It's really strange.

With some questions, he stepped into the gate of Taiyang Tower. He originally wanted to find someone to inform him, but he didn't expect that as soon as he stood still, a foundation-building deacon came forward and saluted respectfully:

"Senior Xu's presence is really impressive. Please come to the guest room and serve tea."

Xu Zhiyu originally wanted to ask him why he knew him, but seeing that the deacon's words just now had caused many customers to turn around and look at him, he felt that this was not the place to talk, so he followed him to the second floor.

Seeing his figure disappearing around the corner of the stairs, the customers who had been so arrogant just now began to whisper.

"Is this the newly promoted Master of the Xu Family's Purple Mansion? He looks so young!"

"Of course. I heard that this senior is not even a hundred years old now, and his qualifications are very outstanding. I was lucky enough to attend the Master's Purple Mansion Ceremony, which was an eye-opener. It was an unprecedented grand event that day, and there were many more The monk who was a mischievous person burned the Master's appearance and shadow onto the jade slips, and then sold them in the market. Don't tell me, the sales were pretty good. This also led to the fact that almost everyone in the market now recognized Senior Xu. appearance."

"Alas, I wonder when I will be able to break through to the Zi Mansion and live six hundred years?" A monk who was just in the late stage of Qi training sighed with emotion.

"This fellow Taoist seems to be thinking too far. I think what you should consider most right now is foundation building."

When he came to the reception room and sat down, he stopped the deacon who was about to report to him and asked him why the other party knew him. He clearly remembered that during the celebration, among the ten guests from Taiyang Tower , and there is no one in front of me.

"Senior, some monks who participated in your celebration secretly drew your appearance and spread it to the city. This is how I remember your appearance."

After he finished speaking, he took out a jade slip and handed it to Xu Zhiyu with both hands. When he took it and took a look, he found that what the deacon said was true. His image inside was exactly the same as a purple robe. He was handsome and very consistent. His form on the day of the celebration.

After waiting for another cup of tea, Shopkeeper Xi arrived. He was still dressed as usual, but there seemed to be a hint of joy between his eyebrows, and his voice was much softer, no longer as cold as before.

"Well, that's good. It didn't take too long. I finally broke through to the Purple Mansion Realm in time, just in time for the master's transformation ceremony. The young lady must be very happy!"

"I would also like to thank you for your help, senior. Without the magic-repelling pill that you ordered Wan Lao to refine, this junior would not have been able to break through easily. I would like to thank you again for your help!"

He sincerely thanked him. This was neither polite nor flattery, but the truth. The biggest difficulty he encountered in his breakthrough was the test of his inner demons.

"It's just a small effort, no need to say thank you! Now let's talk about when you plan to leave to celebrate my master's birthday. Although there are still nearly three years, the distance from here to our headquarters in Taiyang Tower, Yue Kingdom, is close to one million miles. With your current level of cultivation, it will take you two years to travel, so if there is nothing else, you might as well get on the road as soon as possible, so that you can visit various places along the way and treat it as an experience."

Shopkeeper Xi opened his mouth and urged him to go on the road, and also made a plan for his journey. But this time he went out, besides attending the ceremony, he had other plans, so he said:

"Senior, I want to rush to the Yue Kingdom as soon as possible. Flying with a sword is too time-consuming, so I plan to go to Tianyuanfang City, take the Lingxiao Sect's teleportation array, and teleport directly to the Yue Kingdom, which is only tens of thousands of miles away from the Guilou headquarters. In this way It can save a lot of time. I have longed for Yue country in the past, and I also want to take this opportunity to travel well."

Shopkeeper Xi heard what he said and agreed with his idea and said:

"This is better. It not only saves time, but is also safer. Otherwise, I would be a little worried if you flew directly to Yue country!"

What he said made him confused. He didn't know if something big had happened recently, but if something really happened, it was impossible for his grandfather and ancestor not to tell him. Now it seems that there is only one possibility. With the Xu family's Due to his status, he is unable to access such secret information.

When he slightly raised his head to look at Shopkeeper Xi, and at the same time showed an expression of curiosity, Shopkeeper Xi explained directly without waiting for him to ask:

"In recent years, for some unknown reason, many monks have appeared around the Hengduan Mountains of Qin State. Most of them are not natives of Qin State, and they did not attract attention at first, thinking that they were just here to collect resources.

But as time goes by, this situation becomes more and more serious. Originally, the people who came here were monks from other countries above Xuanzhou. Later, monks from other continents also appeared one after another, including Zhongzhou, Changzhou, and Yingzhou. We have the most monks, and not long ago, even our human race base camp, the Holy Land Ancestral Continent that all monks yearn for, has sent monks over one after another. "

When he said this, Shopkeeper Xi had a solemn expression on his face. If Zuzhou didn't send anyone, then it meant that the situation wasn't that serious. But when Zuzhou also got involved, it only meant one thing. , this matter has become a big deal.

"Then what are the monks from other continents traveling hundreds of millions of miles away to come to our Xuan Continent for? Our Qin State is not very impressive in Xuan Continent. As for the Hengduan Mountains, it is not only our Qin State's. Spanning most of the territory of Xuanzhou, the human kingdoms living in the south and north of the mountains are about the same if they are not fifty, so why are they focusing on our Qin country? "

Later, he became a little excited because he suddenly heard so many monks from different continents wandering around in front of his house. No one would be indifferent. The monks sent from such a long distance must have great cultivation. It couldn't be lower, at least they had to be monks from the Zi Mansion. This created many potential safety hazards. Who knows why they came?

"I don't know about this. I heard that after Lingxiao Sect discovered this situation, it took it very seriously and sent several Jindan monks to try to find out what happened. However, in the end they returned to the sect in despair. It turned out that Those monks had Nascent Soul's support behind them. Finally, the Supreme Elder of Lingxiao Sect could not sit still and rushed to negotiate with them in person. At the same time, he also reported the matter to the only Shen Transformation Sect in Xuanzhou - Jiu Shi Sect. The strange thing is that The Jiu Shi Sect did not send any monks, nor did they make any statement about this. They only sent people to inform the Lingxiao Sect and let nature take its course, as if those foreign monks did not exist."

"Assuming it doesn't exist, does this solve the problem?" He said it was very difficult to understand. People are bullying you right to the door, and you don't even fart. This seems a bit unreasonable.

"Then what do you think it should be? Do you think it would be easy for a force that has the ability to cross the ocean and come from one continent to another? Besides, those people from Zuzhou have a deeper background and are not something Jiushi Sect can compete with. , so I can only pretend not to see it!”

While Shopkeeper Xi answered his question, he also told him about the horror of Zuzhou. Just a few random people could scare a large sect that has been inherited for hundreds of thousands of years into hiding like a tortoise. "Then why did they come? Senior, do you know this?" In fact, he was not asking about Shopkeeper Xi, but the person behind Shopkeeper Xi. As a cultivator of God Transformation, Mr. Tong might know something.

Of course Shopkeeper Xi understood what he meant. He glanced at him first and then replied calmly:

"The master does seem to know something, but he didn't tell the young lady much, and asked her not to spread the word. I only got a rough idea from the young lady. They seem to be here to find a high-level spiritual creature. I heard that they are very interested in cultivating gods. It is beneficial, so there are so many powerful forces coming from hundreds of millions of miles away.

However, they only knew that this thing appeared in Xuanzhou, and after costly calculations, they reluctantly targeted the Hengduan Mountains near your Qin State, so these people have been searching in the mountains, hoping to find this spiritual thing. I heard that many Nascent Soul cultivators have been mobilized by the deity-forming forces from all continents this time, so the situation in Qin is extremely serious now. You made the right choice to take the teleportation array! "

High-level spiritual object? What kind of bullshit high-level spiritual creature? It's not good for you to appear anywhere. If you appear in Qin State, isn't this an unreasonable disaster? He murmured in his heart that he must have had no chance to get involved with the spiritual object that even the gods were attracted to, so he was full of resentment towards this so-called spiritual object.

In fact, what he didn't know was that it was all related to him.

He accidentally opened a hole in the family's forbidden area, and then released a guy who claimed to be the ancestor from inside. Finally, he gave Xu Zhiyu a seed, which blossomed instantly with the help of the magical liquid. As a result, he was struck by lightning again, and in the end there were only three left, two of which he fed to his parents, and the last one was always lying in his storage ring.

The real target of these monks is the withered Spirit-Ningling Vermilion Fruit Tree. Fortunately, it fell into a deep sleep due to the insufficient level of the Xu family mountain's spiritual veins. Otherwise, the big forces would have calculated its location long ago. And the Xu family probably no longer exists.

"Doesn't that mean that all the monks living in Qin are in danger now, and it is even more dangerous in the Hengduan Mountains?" He then asked.

"This is obvious, don't you know? The Lingxiao Sect has issued an order. If there is nothing wrong with the sect disciples, they are not allowed to leave the sect. At the same time, they are strictly prohibited from entering the Hengduan Mountains for a period of three years. I know you are worried about the safety of the family, so be it. , your ancestor is now in the market. You can tell him what I just told you, and in the future you will also restrain your clan members from going out at will. These people's targets are mainly high-level spiritual objects, and generally they will not You can rest assured that you will attack ordinary monks.

By the way, this time you go to Tianyuanfang City, I will take you there in person. It just so happens that I also have something to discuss with Shopkeeper Wu, but it will have to wait until half a month later. These days are the assessment dates once every ten years in my building. I You must be in charge personally. You go back now. When it is time to set off, I will send someone to inform you! "

"I understand, senior. I just don't know if there are any golden elixir talismans in the building now. I want to buy two. Since it is a troubled time now, I want to add more security to the family before leaving."

After learning the ins and outs of the matter, he said to Shopkeeper Xi that this was what he really thought.

"There are two golden elixir talismans, but they have been used. The current power can only reach the late stage of Zifu. I wonder if you are still ready to get it?" Upon hearing the business, Shopkeeper Xi quickly replied, his voice just As soon as he fell, two spiritual talismans shining with different lights appeared in front of him.

"Senior, please tell me how much each of these two talismans are worth!"

"This green golden elixir talisman has been used three times. After the fourth activation, its power is comparable to a full blow of an eighth-level monk from the Zifu. However, the power will drop sharply after the fifth activation. Only the fourth-level monk from the Zifu With a level of power, this talisman is worth two thousand two hundred mid-grade spiritual stones.

In addition, this gray talisman has been used four times. After the fifth activation, its power is comparable to that of a seventh-level monk from the Purple Mansion. Even if it is activated for the sixth time, it can also exert the full power of a sixth-level monk from the Purple Mansion. In terms of power, this talisman is slightly cheaper, priced at two thousand mid-grade spiritual stones. "

After hearing Shopkeeper Xi's introduction, he looked around quietly, as if he was making a decision, but he pretended to be casual and asked:

"I wonder how powerful these two talismans are when used for the first time?" Seeing the questioning look in Shopkeeper Xi's eyes, he explained: "Curiosity, just curiosity."

"When the first talisman was sacrificed for the first time, its power was comparable to that of a monk on the second level of the Golden Core. When the second talisman was sacrificed for the first time, its power was comparable to that of a monk on the first level of the Golden Core." Shopkeeper Xi did not do much. Suspicious, he introduced him smoothly.

"Okay, this junior wants these two talismans. These are 4,400 middle-grade spiritual stones. Please check them, senior!"

Shopkeeper Xi's consciousness was slightly revealed and he counted all the spiritual stones clearly. Then he did not refuse and received them all into the storage ring. He also put away the two talisman treasures in a very precious way.

"Is there anything else? If nothing happens, why don't you go back first?" Shopkeeper Xi asked, looking at Xu Zhiyu who was still sitting there without getting up.

"I have one more thing to bother you, senior. Our family is lucky enough to have collected two Purple Sun Grasses. We want to refine the Purple Sun Pill. However, we don't have a third-level alchemist in our family, so we want to ask Wan Lao in the building to help with the refinement." He touched it. He touched his nose and said, he felt a little embarrassed after troublesome people one after another.

"Okay, I will talk to him about this later. You prepare all the main medicines and auxiliary medicines, and then I will send him to get them in person. Considering his level of alchemy, it shouldn't be a big problem!"

"In that case, thank you very much, senior. I will go back and prepare now. I will take my leave!"

After solving all the problems, he left Taiyang Tower happily. (End of chapter)
