Although I was worried, I had said everything before, and now it was hard to find another reason to refuse, so I could only pray that this young man really just went to Qingfengmen to inquire about information.
In fact, if Li Xiuping hadn't said that he was going to inquire about the information, she wouldn't have thought so much. After all, he had nothing to ask for. But now that Li Xiuping said that and had something to ask for, she naturally couldn't help but worry.
As the team continued to move forward, the woman surnamed Yang casually asked: "I wonder what news you want to find out?"
Li Xiuping glanced at her and said, "I would like to know about some recent events in the practice world, such as the sword master you mentioned before in the Sword Washing Pond, and some situations in other holy places."
The woman surnamed Yang frowned a little deeper, because the information Li Xiuping wanted to inquire about was a bit too exaggerated.
It would be fine if others inquired about these things, but the young man in front of him was only in the foundation-building stage, so he would not be asking about the Holy Land for no reason.
Inquiring about the Holy Land must be related to the Holy Land. In addition, although this young man is only at the Foundation Establishment stage, he can easily defeat four Golden Core stage...
With such a connection, he is completely consistent with the rumored Li Xiuping.
Thinking of this, the woman surnamed Yang was even more shocked. She stared at Li Xiuping with a bewildered look on her face and asked cautiously: "My surname is Li?"
Li Xiuping was stunned.
The woman surnamed Yang said hurriedly: "There is no other meaning, sir, don't think too much."
Li Xiuping nodded and said with a smile: "I am Li Xiuping."
After receiving the confirmation, the woman named Yang still looked in disbelief and looked Li Xiuping up and down.
Li Xiuping continued: "So there are some situations that I need to confirm."
The girl's eyes were wide open at this moment, staring at Li Xiuping, and asked excitedly: "Are you really Li Xiuping? The Li Xiuping in the rumors?"
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "I think no one in the entire spiritual world dares to use this name now."
The girl then asked: "Can you really kill a strong person in the Nascent Soul stage?"
Li Xiuping nodded and said, "I have killed a few."
The girl asked: "Do you really have the foundation building stage?"
Li Xiuping nodded and said: "Fourteenth level of foundation building."
As soon as these words came out, both the girl and the woman named Yang were stunned, especially the girl, who frowned and asked: "Fourteenth level of foundation building? Isn't there only nine levels of foundation building?"
Li Xiuping said bitterly: "I can't explain this myself. According to normal circumstances, after building the ninth level of the foundation, you will usually form an elixir and become a golden elixir monk. However, for some reasons, I cannot form an elixir, so I can only continue to improve." It’s the level of foundation building.”
The woman named Yang asked at this time: "Master Li really has no spiritual roots?"
Li Xiuping nodded.
None of these things are secrets, and if you tell them to the people in front of you, even if they say it out loud, others won't believe it.
Don't mention this, even if they said they had seen themselves and were saved by them, no one would believe them.
How could a small, unpopular sect and a female cultivator with only the strength of the Foundation Establishment Stage come into contact with Li Xiuping, who shocked the entire cultivation world? In the eyes of many people, if you want to have contact with Li Xiuping, you must at least be an existence like the Nine Sects, and it is difficult for the second- and third-rate sects below.
The woman surnamed Yang continued: "It is hard for people to believe that the Foundation Establishment kills the Nascent Soul. It is even said that he has cultivated to the fourteenth level in the Foundation Establishment stage. However, since Young Master Li can practice without spiritual roots, then everything is natural. It’s all possible.”
Li Xiuping nodded and said: "Cultivation matters cannot be explained clearly by dividing the realm, let alone one or two sentences."
He then asked: "Now, you don't have to worry about what I have planned against the Qingfeng Sect, right?"
The woman named Yang was stunned for a moment, then looked embarrassed and said with a smile: "Mr. Li was made to laugh."
Li Xiuping smiled slightly and said nothing.
The woman surnamed Yang asked: "When the young master goes to Qingfengmen, should he continue to hide his identity or..."
Li Xiuping shook his head and said: "Let's be honest, I won't be able to stay long. If the guys from Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower find out, not only will I suffer, but Qingfengmen will suffer as well. By the way, are there any holy places nearby? A fearful existence?"
The woman surnamed Yang was stunned, shook her head and said: "I don't know this, but among the immortal cultivating sects here, the most powerful ones are only two Yuan Ying stage ancestors. They are not the only ones who can make even the Holy Land fear them. A superpower like Sanshan?”
Li Xiuping nodded and fell into thought.
Indeed, apart from Three Mountains and Four Cities, there are only two immortals that can make the Holy Land fearful. It is impossible for Three Mountains and Four Cities, and it is even more impossible for Two Immortals, because whether it is Three Mountains or Four Cities, it is not the same as here. There is no connection between them. Even the nearest city of Emperor Wu is still thousands of miles away, and three mountains are further away. As for the two immortals...
In fact, both the previous Master Jiu Xian and the other one have disappeared from the practice world for thousands of years. If it were not for himself, the previous Master Jiu Xian would not have appeared in this world, and there is no news about the other one until now. Even if it is here, the powerful people in Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower cannot know about it, so naturally they will not deliberately avoid this place.
But judging from the previous spiritual feedback, there are indeed no strong people from Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower in this area. That can only mean that it is a coincidence and that I am lucky.
The team soon entered Jinding City, and the strong men in charge of the escort had completed their escort mission. They originally did not dare to accept the remaining payment, but both Qingfengmen and Li Xiuping insisted on giving it. They didn't dare to refuse, so they could only accept the balance and then leave.
Along the way, although they suffered heavy losses, fortunately they made all the money they should have earned, and they also experienced such legendary things, which they can brag about for the rest of their lives.
The death of a person is certainly a sad thing, but in their profession, lives are in danger at any time. Their lives are exchanged for glory and wealth, so everyone has been prepared to die. The dead are gone, and the living must live better so that the sacrifices of those people are not in vain...
After entering Jinding City, the caravan had reached its destination, so it had to be separated from Li Xiuping and others.
The old man in the caravan should be the girl's grandfather, so a reluctant farewell is inevitable.
Naturally, the girl was fine. She had never experienced separation anyway, so she naturally did not understand the longing after separation. Instead, she was bothered by the old man's nagging and wished to leave quickly, and then go to the holy land of immortality that she yearned for, and embark on the path of immortality that she had dreamed of.
This is what every child thinks when they leave home and their loved ones. Their attention is always on the things they yearn for, not on their loved ones. Then one day, they find that their loved ones are old or gone. , only then did I realize how precious those endless thoughts that I thought I had talked about back then were.
People who have experienced it can always see themselves reflected in the same things, and Li Xiuping is no exception.
He was just like a girl before, hoping to grow up quickly, go further afield, and see a bigger world. But when he grew up, he went farther afield and saw more. In the big world, I realized that the original place was the most peaceful place, and I realized that the person who was always talking about me and annoying me was the person closest to me and the person I could trust most unconditionally...
Li Xiuping withdrew his thoughts and quietly waited for the separation of his grandfather and grandson.
Li Xiuping didn't say anything, and the woman named Yang naturally couldn't say anything. After all, she was not in a hurry.
Li Xiuping suddenly asked: "What do you think of the saying that Dao is ruthless?"
The woman named Yang was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and said, "I don't dare to humiliate myself in front of Mr. Li."
Li Xiuping shook his head and said: "It's just a talk, the girl is too heavy."
The woman surnamed Yang hesitated for a moment and said: "Actually, I don't know either, but the elders of the sect say that if you want to become an immortal, you must cut off your love, have no desires, no demands, no worries, and only then can you escape the suffering of the world. , become an immortal."
Li Xiuping nodded and said after a while: "But becoming an immortal is not a desire. Since you want to become an immortal, how can you become an immortal without desires and demands? How can you become an immortal if you cannot have no desires and demands?"
The woman named Yang was stunned. She had never thought about this question before, but Li Xiuping suddenly mentioned it, so she said it casually. Now that Li Xiuping asked her again, she was immediately stopped.
Although Li Xiuping said it just casually, this person was Li Xiuping after all, so she always felt that there was something profound in his words, and even felt that Mr. Li wanted to tease her about something.
Li Xiuping said with a smile: "Cultivating immortals is really an interesting thing. Countless people spend their whole lives looking for the method to become immortals, but some people have clearly become immortals, but they are unwilling to ascend and leave this sea of suffering that countless people regard as suffering. The human world, so Xunxian asked, what is the meaning?"
The woman surnamed Yang asked: "Master Li, what is the purpose of practicing?"
Li Xiuping replied: "Longevity."
The woman surnamed Yang was stunned, because most people's answer to this question is to become an immortal, because becoming an immortal will naturally lead to immortality. This is a fact recognized by everyone, but Mr. Li's answer is only immortality, not immortality. Fairy.
Does this mean that he just wants to live forever and not become an immortal?
But even if you just want to live forever, it is still a desire. Since you have desires, how can you become an immortal? If you cannot become an immortal, how can you live forever?
Or should we settle for the next best thing and lose the desire to become an immortal, only then can we achieve the body of an immortal and live forever?
Li Xiuping really just had a sudden thought, so naturally he didn't know that this woman would think so much.
At this time, the girl finally finished saying goodbye and ran towards this side with a smile on her face, without even looking back at her grandfather. The old man stood there, watching the girl run towards this side, and then followed Li Xiuping and others away. He did not turn around or look back for a long time, even though the granddaughter had completely disappeared from sight.
He knew very well how lucky he was to be chosen by the Immortal Sect family, because his granddaughter could cultivate immortality and become the immortal that everyone envied. But he also knew very well that once she entered the Immortal Sect, she would He has to completely cut off ties with the world. It will be difficult to see him again in the future. Maybe after he dies, he will not be able to see this precious granddaughter again.
This farewell is most likely to be an eternal farewell.
Because it was still early, the three of them did not stop at Jinding City and went straight to Qingfeng Gate.
Qingfengmen is not very far from Jinding City, but both Li Xiuping and the woman named Yang are only at the foundation-building stage and cannot control the sky. Although Li Xiuping can control the sky, he can only support himself and cannot do anything. If his senior sister and the senior swordsman took others to fly together, the three of them would naturally have to walk.
So it still took three days to get from Jinding City to Qingfeng Gate.
Qingfeng Sect is just a very ordinary cultivation sect, not even as good as Huayang Sect. Most of them are Qi Refining Stage disciples. Those who reach the Foundation Establishment Stage can almost become the sect leader, and the strongest person in the entire Qingfeng Sect is , they are only in the late Golden Core stage, and there are still four or five Golden Core stage elders.
Li Xiuping had already understood some of the situation of Qingfeng Sect when he came, so he was not disappointed.
He came here this time just to pass by and inquire about some news related to the practice world. It would be best if he could find out. If he couldn't find out, he could just continue to the east.
Because Li Xiuping said that there was no need to deliberately hide his identity, after entering the Qingfeng Sect, the woman named Yang informed the senior officials of the Qingfeng Sect about Li Xiuping's identity. The news was not serious, and Jiu, who was in a hurry, ran out to greet them, but all of them had smiles on their faces.
This is Li Xiuping, the only descendant of the great master of sword-making, Mr. Ou Ye, and the junior uncle of the Holy Land Guanchao Academy. He even has a Jiuxian as his backer. Who in the entire cultivation world dares to neglect him?
If a small and unpopular sect like Qingfeng Sect can establish a good relationship with Mr. Li, it will be of immeasurable benefit to the future development of Qingfeng Sect. It will not even have to do anything or advocate for Qingfeng Sect. Others will Once he knew that Li Xiping had been to Qingfengmen, why would he come to make friends with him one after another?
By then, with the connections, Qingfeng Sect’s reputation in this area will surely rise to new heights. Why worry that the sect cannot grow?
The most important thing is that with Li Xiuping's relationship, those forces that usually eye Qingfeng Sect no longer dare to have any thoughts about Qingfeng Sect, and will even try to win over Qingfeng Sect.
Who would have thought that the Qingfeng Sect just went to recruit a disciple, but directly brought back a great god and a sea-fixing needle that could directly stabilize the situation of the Qingfeng Sect. It seems that the new girl is really the lucky star of the entire Qingfeng Sect.
Li Xiuping may or may not know what these people think, but whether he knows it or not, Li Xiuping naturally doesn't care.
Although he is only in the foundation-building stage, his energy is beyond imagination. In many cases, he can change the future of a person or even a sect without even doing anything deliberately. This is an undeniable established fact. .
Qingfengmen brought Li Xiuping to the main hall with the greatest courtesy and directly arranged the highest etiquette, for fear of offending this great god.
After Li Xiuping entered the main hall, he went straight to the topic and inquired about some recent rumors in the practice world. The end point was Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower. The most important thing was the sword washing pool and the senior sword master. .
After all, Qingfeng Sect is too small. Although it can be regarded as one of the sects in the cultivation world, there are too few things that they can come into contact with, let alone major events related to the Holy Land, so what they know are only those that have great influence. Rumor has it that they don’t know much more than the woman named Yang.
Li Xiuping had no expectations for this matter, so naturally he was not disappointed. However, it was not that he gained nothing, because he heard something related to the demon clan.
According to Qingfengmen, there are indeed traces of demons in Penglaizhou. This news was personally confirmed by Emperor Wu City, one of the four cities, so it cannot be false.
What concerns the demon clan is the biggest issue in the entire cultivation world, and even in the entire human race. Therefore, some things that usually seem very important seem insignificant at this time, such as some grand gatherings of sects and the like. Cancel directly.
Li Xiuping seemed to suddenly understand why there were no strong people from Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower in this area. It was not because there was something that Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower were afraid of, but because of the demons.
Because of the demons, Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower can give up on Li Xiuping first. It can be seen that no one or any force dares to take it lightly when it comes to the demons.
Li Xiuping knew very little about the demons, and it could even be said that he knew nothing about them. However, from the previous information about the demons, it can be seen that this is definitely a big event, a major event that affects everyone.
It was just that news about the Demon Clan spread, and the Demon Clan directly recalled his senior sister and Miss Xiaohong. Because of the Demon Clan, Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower directly gave up on him as an existence that must be eliminated. This was enough. Explain the importance of this matter.
This is naturally a good thing for Li Xiuping, at least for now, because he no longer has to carefully avoid Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower, but judging from the impact of this incident, it may not be the same. A good thing.
In addition, there is a more difficult problem.
According to the previous situation, as long as he entered the territory of Emperor Wu City, no matter it was the Star Observation Tower or the Taiyi Pavilion, he would not dare to act rashly, because neither the Taiyi Pavilion nor the Star Observation Tower could directly operate within the territory of the roof. This involved two people. interactions between forces.
But now, because of the demon clan's affairs, Star Observation Tower and Taiyi Pavilion can naturally enter Wu Emperor City. So even if he enters the territory of Emperor Wu City, he will still encounter the strong men from Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower, and he will still face The danger of being killed by Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower.
Thinking of this, Li Xiuping couldn't help but have a headache.
How about going back the same way and heading to Guanchao Academy?
Since everyone's attention is now on things related to the demon clan, and since all grievances will be temporarily put aside, then returning to Guanchao and being discharged from the hospital may be the wisest choice. At least there are two people in Guanchao Academy. Under the protection of the saint, unless the Taiyi Pavilion or the Star Observation Tower are deployed, ordinary people cannot threaten their safety.
This idea is indeed feasible, but Li Xiuping still decided to visit Emperor Wu City because he also wanted to know what kind of existence this so-called demon clan was and what impact it would have on the entire human race.
