I conquer the immortal with my strength.

Chapter 22 Uninvited Guest

It's already early winter.

The northern part of Mangzhou is now covered in ice and snow.

And the nights in the Southland finally felt a little chilly.

Xia Daoming was sitting cross-legged in the backyard, holding a Sanyuan Guixue Pill in his hand.

Yesterday, Ji Wenyue came back quickly and brought him a package of pills.

Among them were ten Sanyuan Guixue Pills with a market price of two hundred taels each.

Moreover, what Ji Wenyue gave was the high-quality Sanyuan Guixue pills taken by the children of the Ji family. If they really wanted to sell them, they would probably be able to sell them for three hundred taels each.

This alone is worth three thousand taels.

In addition to Sanyuan Guixue Pills, there are also Lingcang Pills, Jiugu Gao, Qinglian Buli Dan, which are equally effective, as well as many pills that are less effective.

It's hard for Xia Daoming to put a price on how much these elixirs are worth in total, but they would start at at least six thousand taels on the market.

And this is just the first batch.

"It's easier and more delicious to eat soft rice!"

Xia Daoming muttered to himself, and then threw the Sanyuan Guixue Pill into his mouth like beans.

Soon, a surging medicinal power spread through the meridians.

Xia Daoming slowly opened his eyes after taking drugs and practicing until the beginning of Yinshi.

A simple picture of the system comes to mind.

Xia Daoming—

Cultivation: fifth grade martial artist

Level 1 meridian strengthening progress: 60%.

The day before yesterday, the progress of strengthening the first-level meridians was still zero.

"It's easier and more delicious to eat soft rice!"

Xia Daoming couldn't help but sigh again.

"The efficacy of these Sanyuan Guixue Pills has declined a lot. The remaining two pills can be left for Liu Qiaolian to take after she breaks through and becomes a fourth-grade martial artist."

Xia Daoming took out the brocade box containing two Sanyuan Guixue Pills, looked at it, and then put it away.
-
Three months passed in the blink of an eye.

Xia Daoming found that he still underestimated the system's ability to swallow gold.

The nine enhancements to the fifth-level realm are more difficult each time, and the amount of tonic pills and meat required is also more and more.

The time is getting longer every time.

It only took Xia Daoming four days to complete the strengthening of the first-level meridians.

As for the strengthening of the eighth-level meridians, it took Xia Daoming twenty days to complete, and the resources consumed were even more staggering.

However, this is not only due to the increase in the level of strengthening the meridians, but also to the increasingly higher quality requirements for tonic elixirs. It also has a lot to do with the fact that Xia Daoming takes the same elixir more and more often, and the effectiveness of the elixir continues to decrease.

After all, the quality of the elixirs produced by the Ji family is limited, and they are mainly aimed at sixth-grade great martial artists and below. For those above the sixth-grade great martial artist, their effectiveness is very limited.

After Xia Daoming's meridians were strengthened to the fourth level, he was actually comparable to a sixth-grade great martial artist.

Fortunately, Xia Daoming was still at the level of a fifth-grade great martial artist, so the Ji family's elixirs could still play a significant role.

But as the level gets higher and higher, the degree of waste becomes greater and greater.

Liu Qiaolian, on the other hand, had been enjoying the treatment equivalent to a direct descendant of a powerful force for the past three months thanks to Xia Daoming. As a result, five days ago, she broke through and became a fourth-level martial artist.

Now Liu Qiaolian, in addition to continuing to take supplements and practice diligently every day, has begun to take the secret medicine of Qianjiao Martial Arts Hall to condense the power of Qi and blood - Longyuan ointment, in preparation for observing the secret map and practicing Anjin.

In addition to her breakthrough in cultivation, during the past three months, Liu Qiaolian tried her best to cater to Xia Daoming when playing cards, which made him unable to stop, and he almost indulged in women, went astray, and abandoned his real career.

Fortunately, Xia Daoming found out in time, stepped back from the brink, and set a limit for himself and Liu Qiaolian, and then got back on track.

This day, late at night, in the backyard of Xia Zhai.

Xia Daoming slowly opened his eyes and "looked" at the interface in his mind that showed that the ninth-level meridian strengthening progress was only 2%. He couldn't help but frown slightly and fell into deep thought.

"This can't go on like this! Such a large amount of resources have been consumed in a short period of time. No matter how powerful Ji Wenyue is in the family, she will probably have to bear a lot of pressure.

As for the strengthening of the ninth-level meridians, the conversion rate of the elixir given by Ji Wenyue is even lower, and the degree of waste is too serious. To complete it all, it is not known how many elixirs will be consumed.

It seems that after waiting for a few days and observing the secret map, you can consider going out with Senior Brother Zhuo for a few escort trips. Senior Brother Zhuo often travels to several big cities in the South. Higher-grade elixirs may be available in those places, which can alleviate Wen Yue's pressure to some extent.

It just so happens that I can see the world, gain experience, and make some money along the way. No matter how small the mosquitoes are, they are still meat, and eating soft rice all the time is not a long-term solution! "

After making up his mind, Xia Daoming stopped taking drugs and continued practicing.

The eight thousand taels of silver he had on hand had hardly been used in the past three months except for some daily expenses.

But if you want to use it to buy higher-level elixirs, you probably won't be able to buy many. Besides, Xia Daoming still has to prepare for strengthening the meridians of the sixth-level realm.

Therefore, it is better not to waste the backlog of elixirs on hand as much as possible. It would be more appropriate to save them for selling in the future.

However, Xia Daoming had never thought about how she would feel if Ji Wenyue knew that he used the pills she gave him to become a traitor.
-
Wujiapu.

Wu family chief's residence, study room.

An old man in gray clothes bowed slightly, stood behind Wu Yueli, and whispered: "Master, Tian family, Hudaomen and other six families have basically eliminated the suspicion. It is unlikely that they killed Master Wu. Now there is only Qianjiao Martial Arts School left in the city, and it is reported that Liang Jingtang suddenly accepted a disciple half a year ago. That time period coincided with the time when Master Wu Changlu was killed."

"Submit your name!" Wu Yueli's heart moved, and his eyes showed murderous intent, but he quickly shook his head and said: "It's impossible. This kid Changlu is quite scheming. He knows that he has a special status. He usually pretends to be a playboy, and even cultivates a lot. Cover it up as much as possible so as not to attract outside attention.

Therefore, the outside world basically thought that he was just a third-grade martial artist, but they didn't know that he was not only a fourth-grade martial artist at a young age, but also had secretly developed some dark power.

Liang Jingtang's new disciple was at the fourth level at most, so how could he kill him without even having a chance to escape? What's more, Changlu also brought two followers. "

"The old slave thinks so too, so he excluded the Qianjiao Martial Arts School a long time ago, but now that the suspicions of several other companies having enmity with our Wujiabao have been eliminated, the only one left is the Qianjiao Martial Arts School. If Qianjiao Martial Arts School is not the same, I’m afraid I won’t have a clue anymore.” The old man in gray replied.

When Wu Yueli heard this, he frowned and stood up. He walked back and forth in the study several times with his hands behind his back. Then he suddenly stamped his feet and said, "In this case, whether it is that person or not, find an opportunity to arrest him first, question him clearly, and then kill him."

"What if Liang Jingtang knows about it..."

"Gu Ren was seriously injured by the Shi family's trap. Now Liang Jingtang has no successor. There are not many people in the sect who can really fight. Even if he knew that the newly recruited disciple was killed by us, could he still go to Wujiabao to kill him for him?

If Wu Changlu hadn't been my illegitimate son, who was very talented in martial arts and secretly liked me, I wouldn't have been holding on to him for so long and refused to give up.

However, Liang Jingtang is still quite powerful, and he also values ​​friendship. It is best if the news is not leaked, so you should take action in this matter yourself. "Wu Yueli said.

Seeing Wu Yueli mention illegitimate children, a trace of hatred flashed behind the lowered eyes of the old man in gray, but he responded respectfully on his face: "That's what the master said!"
-
"Master."

In the inner hall of the Qianjiao Martial Arts Hall, Xia Daoming respectfully called Liang Jingtang, who was lying on a chair.

"Here you come, go to the secret practice room and wait for me." Liang Jingtang nodded to Xia Daoming, stood up slowly, and walked towards his bedroom.

In just three months, Liang Jingtang became much thinner and older.

His originally tall and mighty body looked a little stooped, and he looked a little staggering when he walked.

Obviously, what happened to Gu Ren had a great impact on him.

Soon, Xia Daoming was waiting for Liang Jingtang in the secret practice room.

Liang Jingtang gave the secret map of Shen Yun to Xia Daoming and left without any instructions this time.

This time, as soon as Xia Daoming unfolded the scroll, his spiritual consciousness immediately triggered the charm in the secret map.

The spectacular and mysterious scene he saw half a year ago appeared before his eyes again.

But this time, he saw it more clearly and understood it more deeply.

His mind was so affected by that scene that he almost had to use his strength to open the sixth meridian. Fortunately, Xia Daoming woke up in time.

Otherwise, before his meridians at the fifth-level realm have completed the ninth-level strengthening, he will directly break through and become a sixth-level great martial artist.

An hour later.

Liang Jingtang came in again.

This time, Xia Daoming's performance was completely opposite to last time.

Last time, his face was pale and his clothes were soaked in cold sweat.

But this time, his expression was calm, almost unchanged for an hour before and after.

Liang Jingtang became more and more disappointed when he saw this scene.

Because this can only show that what Xia Daoming saw the second time was no different from the first time, so there was no violent reaction.

However, Liang Jingtang didn't say anything, he just silently put away the Shen Yun secret map and staggered away.

Xia Daoming sat quietly in the secret practice room for another hour, thinking carefully about the vision of the operation of the seventh and eighth levels that he saw clearly this time, and imprinted it deeply into his brain, before he got up and left.

The night is dark.

Lihua Lane was quiet and dark, with only the faint lights coming out of the walls of Xia's house.

Xia Daoming walked quickly to the door of Xia Zhaiyuan. Just as he was about to knock on the door, he turned around and said towards the deserted street: "Since my friend is here, why hide? Why don't you go inside and sit down?" Take a seat!"

"Crench!"

The door opened from the inside, and Liu Qiaolian held a lantern and looked at Xia Daoming, who had his back to the courtyard door, with a puzzled expression.

"Lian'er, you go in first and let Xia He and the others stay in the room. I'm waiting for the uninvited guests." Xia Daoming said.

"It's the master!" Liu Qiaolian's face changed slightly, and she returned to the front yard with the lantern.

"It's interesting!" In the darkness, a masked old man in black walked out, with a vague energy and blood energy fluctuating on his body.

Xia Daoming's pupils shrank slightly, but he breathed a sigh of relief.

After observing the secret map twice, although Xia Daoming's realm has not yet reached the eighth level, his insight has far exceeded his current realm.

The energy and blood energy that the masked old man inadvertently revealed allowed Xia Daoming to immediately determine his level.

A fifth-grade great martial artist, and an old fifth-grade great martial artist at that. For him now, he is really a bit weak.

"It turns out he is an old man. He came into the house to avoid disturbing the neighbors." Xia Daoming said calmly.

"That's fine." The masked old man said calmly.

Xia Daoming went inside first and stood in the front yard, with the door open and the lights brightly lit.

The masked old man glanced through the gate, then Shiran walked into the front yard and closed the gate.
