No matter how stupid these people are, they may have guessed something at this moment, so each of them frowned deeper.
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "Zhuang Master Zhao came just in time. I have already caught this female ghost. Zhuang Zhuang, look at the reward..."
The owner of Villa Zhao actually put on a smile at this moment and said with a smile: "It's easy to talk, but I just don't know where the female ghost is now?"
Li Xiuping directly took out the copper bowl, then tapped it lightly with his fingers, and the female ghost emerged again, but was imprisoned by countless golden runes and could not move, let alone break free.
Li Xiuping continued: "This female ghost is really difficult to deal with. No wonder Master Zhao is a practitioner, but he still has to find helpers from outside to deal with her."
The owner of the village, Zhao, looked a little ugly and said with a smile: "Fortunately, I finally caught him."
As he said that, he took out thirty gold and threw it to Li Xiuping.
Without Li Xiuping taking action, "Huoling Zhenren" caught the thirty gold coins.
Li Xiuping asked with a smile: "Thirty gold cannot buy an evil ghost who has always been at the peak of the golden elixir stage."
The owner of the village, Zhao, frowned and said, "What do you mean?"
Li Xiuping asked with a smile: "Master Zhao, don't you want to get this evil ghost back? Raising it to this level probably consumes a lot of resources. If you want to take it back with just thirty gold, that's definitely not possible. Of course, Zhuang Zhuang mainly doesn’t want to take it back, but I don’t mind taking it with me.”
The owner of the village, Zhao, glanced at everyone, frowned and said, "I don't understand what you are talking about."
Li Xiuping smiled slightly and continued: "It's meaningless to talk like this. The evil ghosts that Zhuangzhu Zhao can't deal with by himself are allowed to be dealt with by so many people who are not as good as you. This is not in line with common sense, unless Zhuangzhao I don’t want to deal with this evil ghost. I don’t want to deal with it, but yet I’m offering rewards everywhere to let countless monks enter Lotus Town. That would be even more strange, unless Master Zhao has some other purpose.”
Without waiting for the other party to speak, Li Xiuping continued: "I heard that there is a kind of ghost cultivator in the world that specializes in raising ghosts, and then relies on the ghosts to absorb people's soul essence, and then uses the ghosts to assist one's own cultivation. If you want to improve your cultivation, you must practice Humans are the most suitable choice, and if you want to attract more monks, the best way is to offer a reward."
"For monks, if they can make money and gain fame, they will naturally not refuse. And in this way, even if monks continue to die here, they will not arouse suspicion, and others will only think that they are ghosts here. If it is too powerful, it will naturally attract more monks who want to gain fame, especially those casual cultivators. And the casual cultivators have no backing background. Even if they die here, no one will care, and naturally no one will Come and investigate.”
He looked at Zhuangzhu Zhao and said with a smile: "Having thought of this trick, I have to say that Zhuangzhao is really shrewd. However, although this method is effective, it also has a lot of risks, such as attracting sect disciples. , it is very likely that the identity of Master Zhao’s ghost cultivator will be exposed. There is probably only one explanation for Master Zhao’s taking such a desperate risk, and that is that Master Zhao will break through the realm in the near future, so he will take this risk.”
The entire long street was in an uproar, and everyone turned their attention to the owner of the village, Zhao.
The leader of the village, Zhao, suddenly laughed loudly at this moment and said: "I have underestimated you. Not only can you subdue a ghost general with the peak strength of the golden elixir stage, but you can also guess so much. In this case, I won't let you stay." , let’s all become the helpers for my breakthrough today.”
After that, he raised his hand and pressed it, and blood-red runes suddenly lit up on the entire long street, and then continued to extend, and soon spread all over the entire Lotus Township.
Looking at the runes that kept lighting up, Li Xiuping frowned slightly. He didn't expect that the other party had already arranged the entire Lotus Town into a large formation. However, this was not difficult to understand. After all, this person was in Lotus Town. After so many years of operation, there must be some back-ups, and this formation is just one of them.
Li Xiuping didn't know much about formations, and he had never been exposed to ghost formations, but he didn't care much about it. In the final analysis, the opponent was just a Nascent Soul monk. No matter how powerful the formation was, it would still be difficult for a combined person to In front of Qi Jianxiu, there is no threat, be it the ghost way or the immortal way. When the time comes, just give him a sword to break all the magic.
Of course, if such a formation is activated, it will definitely cause a lot of casualties. Not to mention the monks who come to catch ghosts, there are hundreds of people in the entire Lianhua Township, and I am afraid that they will all be affected by then.
Li Xiuping asked with a smile: "Master Zhao, isn't he curious about how I guessed all this?"
The owner of Zhuang Zhao said coldly: "I really want to hear it."
Li Xiuping said with a smile: "Actually, it's very simple. When we first met Master Zhao, we could tell at a glance that Master Zhao's level of cultivation was different, but his aura was different from that of a cultivator. The master obviously has the cultivation level of Nascent Soul stage, but he has to find someone from outside to deal with a ghost. It is thousands of miles away. Not to mention the strong ones of the Nascent Soul stage, there are many strong ones in the Nascent Soul stage that can be counted on both hands, so Zhuangzhu Zhao has to deal with it himself. Of course, no one can deal with the indestructible ghosts, so Zhuangzhu Zhao has only one purpose for doing this, which is what I said before, to attract the nearby monks one by one, kill them one by one, and help Zhuangzhao one by one. Break through the realm.”
He looked at Village Master Zhao and said with a smile: "Since we can see the details of Master Zhao at a glance, Master Zhao thinks that these methods of yours can threaten us?"
Zhuangzhao Zhao was stunned. It was obvious that what Li Xiuping said made sense. Since these people could see through everything about him at a glance, it meant that at least one of them had a realm far above him, that is, Above the stage of becoming a god.
Facing a strong man in the transformation stage or even the distraction stage, any resistance he had would be in vain.
The owner of Villa Zhao sneered: "Even if I give up resistance, can you let me go?"
Li Xiuping shook his head and said, "Of course that's impossible."
The owner of the village, Zhao, didn't seem to expect that Li Xiuping would answer so firmly. He didn't even bother to delay for a moment, and then smiled sadly and said: "In this case, we are going to die anyway, so I will take you and the others to be buried together. "
After saying that, he quickly formed seals with his hands and shouted coldly: "Open the Ten Thousand Ghost Array!"
As soon as he finished speaking, those blood-red runes began to flow directly like blood.
On the ground, masses of black energy kept appearing, and they turned out to be skulls with black energy.
After these skulls appeared, they kept floating in the sky over Lianhua Township. For a while, the sky was dark and the earth was dark and lifeless. All kinds of shrill wails were heard continuously, making people's scalp numb.
Li Xiuping looked at those skulls and said solemnly: "Sure enough, it is related to the demon clan."
He continued: "Senior."
The layman Qingming nodded, sword energy emerged all over his body, and then the fairy sword Qingming on his back unsheathed himself, and a sword energy suddenly shot straight into the sky. Wherever the sword energy passed, the skulls fled in panic, not daring to get close at all.
After the fairy sword Qing Ming rushed into the sea of clouds, the sword energy exploded instantly, and then turned into long swords all over the sky. It fell down, and the sword rain directly enveloped the entire Lotus Township.
Under the intensive attack of those sword rains, those skulls were unable to escape, and they were all nailed to the ground in an instant, and then directly dispersed by the sword energy.
"Immortal Sword Qingming! You are layman Qingming, one of the eight sages!"
The face of Zhuangzhu Zhao changed drastically and he exclaimed.
Layman Qingming said calmly: "My eyesight is pretty good."
The owner of Villa Zhao looked at Li Xiuping again, and then asked: "Then you should be Li Xiuping."
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "It seems you know a lot. How about it? You still want to resist?"
After confirming the identities of Li Xiuping and others, the owner of the village, Zhao, seemed to suddenly wilt. He gave up resistance and his whole body fell directly to the ground.
Qingming Jushi, one of the eight sages, a strong person in the integration stage.
Although Li Xiuping has only cultivated in the Foundation Establishment Stage, in the past few years, there are almost all rumors related to him in the entire cultivation world. Killings in the God Transformation Stage and fighting against the Distraction Stage are commonplace, even after being demonized. Master Huo Ling all died under his sword, and the Star Observation Tower, one of the seven holy places that was deeply involved with the demon clan, suffered heavy losses because of him. It was even rumored that even the demon king of the demon clan personally took action. However, they still failed to kill him, only severely injuring him.
Now it seems that the injuries on this young man's body were probably caused by the Demon Lord.
He thought that even the Demon Lord with the strength of the Immortal Realm could not kill him. Now he was hit by him. No matter how he resisted, it was all in vain.
Li Xiuping saw that the other party gave up directly, and couldn't help frowning: "Don't fight? I still want to see your methods."
The owner of Zhuang Zhao said, "As long as Mr. Li and the layman can spare my life, I can tell you some things about the demon clan."
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "The secret method you practice is indeed related to the Demon Clan, but if you say you know any secrets of the Demon Clan, I definitely don't believe it. If I am not wrong, I am afraid you are not even qualified to contact the Demon Clan." None, right?"
The owner of the village, Zhao, was startled.
Li Xiuping continued: "Look, you can't even seize the chance of survival, and you don't even have the qualifications to contact the demons, but you still want to practice the secrets of the demons. It's really... I don't know what to say. Why does a good person have to practice the secret method of the demon clan?"
However, Zhuang Zhuang suddenly roared: "What do you proud men of heaven know? If a person does not have spiritual roots, he cannot embark on the path of cultivating immortals. He can only live an ordinary life and then wait for death to keep approaching. Why? Why? Why are some people born with spiritual roots destined to be extraordinary, while some people can only live as humble as ants?"
Li Xiuping was stunned.
After a while, Li Xiuping sighed: "Actually, I don't have spiritual roots either, but maybe I'm lucky."
The owner of the village, Zhao, was startled.
No spiritual roots?
If a person has no spiritual roots, how can he practice other than the path of demons? But this Mr. Li is obviously not following the devil's path.
Could it be said that one can embark on the path to immortality without spiritual roots?
He shook his head and said, "I don't believe it."
Li Xiuping continued: "This is the fact, so it can only mean that your luck is indeed not very good, and you have been exposed to the devil. Although I have no spiritual roots, I have not been exposed to the devil, so in order to prove immortality, I can only walk Immortal way.”
After saying this, he turned around and said no more.
The layman Qing Ming naturally knew what he was thinking. Without hesitation, the fairy sword Qing Ming hovering in the air fell straight down and killed the Master Zhao directly.
After the leader of Zhuang Zhao was beheaded, Li Xiuping said to those people: "Everyone, please go back. There must be quite a lot of hidden dangers here. From now on, I will be responsible for you and your sects."
After saying that, he walked directly towards the Zhao Mansion. In the Zhao Mansion, there must be many things that need to be dealt with, such as the secret techniques of practice, and these things must not fall into the hands of others, otherwise the next Master Zhao will appear.
Along the way, Li Xiuping didn't speak. He seemed to be in a low mood. What he was thinking about was the last roar of Master Zhao.
For a moment, Li Xiuping actually felt a little soft-hearted, because he could understand the feelings of Zhuangzhu Zhao, because he himself had no spiritual roots.
As he said, he may be lucky. Although he has no spiritual roots, he has a master, an old man who allows him to practice without spiritual roots.
If it weren't for Mr. Ou Ye, if he had been exposed to the secrets of magic before, he didn't know if he would have become the same person as the owner of Zhao Village.
But Li Xiuping still decided to kill him in the end, not only because immortals and demons are not at odds with each other, but also because even if he tried to put himself in another person's shoes, he found that even if he chose to practice in the devil's way, he would never be able to do the same thing as Master Zhao. The same thing, because he would never use so many innocent lives to achieve himself.
People are born different. This difference determines their behavior. Different behaviors determine different fates...
Sensing Li Xiuping's emotions, Master Qingming frowned and said, "You don't really take it to your heart, do you?"
Li Xiuping shook his head and said: "That's not true, I'm just feeling a little emotional."
The layman Qingming nodded, but he was not worried.
On the surface, he could see that Li Xiuping was depressed, as if he was affected, but on the inside, as a sword cultivator, he could see that Li Xiuping's sword heart was clear at this moment, and was actually far better than him.
In life, emotions are inevitable, but as long as the original mind is not affected, it can be above all emotions, and will not be affected by any emotions, and it will not affect practice.
At such an age, he can achieve this step and return directly to the meaning of his own existence at the moment when emotions occur. Even the layman Qingming has to admire him. Therefore, the young man in front of him can achieve what he has today. , it’s not just luck and destiny, he also has something that ordinary people can’t match.
When everyone returned to the Zhao Mansion, the entire Zhao Mansion was still brightly lit, and all the servants and maids were still busy with their own affairs. They seemed completely unaware of what happened tonight. Obviously, except for the owner of the Zhao Village, the entire Zhao Mansion was still brightly lit. There is no one else in the mansion who practices the secret techniques of the demons, and they even have no idea what kind of existence their master is.
Li Xiuping did not explain anything to these people. After all, even if he did not alert anyone, he could easily handle the affairs in the mansion. So after handling all the affairs in the Zhao mansion, Li Xiuping and others left Lianhua Township overnight and continued southward.
Li Xiuping had been forced to take action before, and now the cold night wind was blowing continuously. At this moment, Li Xiuping was so uncomfortable that he could only take off the wine bottle from his waist and take a sip of wine.
Although the wine master had ordered that this wine must be drunk every day, but no more than three times and no less than twice a day, Li Xiuping was very clear about the situation of this wine, so he naturally knew the reason why he needed to drink it every day. , so if you drink it now, as long as you can guide the consumption of the alcohol, there will be no problem.
After taking a sip of wine, Li Xiuping felt better and felt a little bitter in his heart.
Since I left Qingyang Town, although I have been on the verge of life and death several times, I have never been so embarrassed.
The attack of a Demon Lord with Immortal Realm strength was really no joke. If it hadn't been for the appearance of the senior Jiuxian, he would have died in the Lingxiao Sect long ago, but even if he saved his life, Now it is actually almost like death, that is, he is barely still breathing. He just relies on the wine to continuously provide nutrients to the willow tree, and then the willow tree supports his vitality from disappearing all at once, and supports his soul. As for destruction.
Li Xiuping knew very well that this situation could not last long, maybe three years, maybe five years, or even shorter.
The only one who can save him now is the Flower Immortal, one of the two immortals, the Mo Xiangji mentioned by his master Mr. Ou Ye in the inheritance of Night Travel Division.
Mr. Ouye did not say that Mo Xiangzheng was the Flower Fairy, but Jiu Xian mentioned the Flower Fairy, and also said that the only one who could save him was the Flower Fairy, and the Flower Fairy was the person he went to the south to find. The person is Mo Xiangji, so Mo Xiangji is naturally the flower fairy.
According to the information left by Mr. Ouye, Mo Xiangzheng is in a place in the south called Nanling Kingdom. Nanying Kingdom is located on the coast of the South China Sea, tens of thousands of miles away. The key is that the south is also currently at war with the demons. , the situation is probably not much better than that in the East China Sea.
If the situation in the south is the same as that of Emperor Wu City, and the defense can only be determined based on the impact on the rules of heaven and earth, then the entire Nanying Kingdom may have fallen into the hands of the demons. It is almost impossible to find Mo Xiangzhen in the Nanying Kingdom. possible.
Besides, that was an immortal. If she didn't take the initiative to show up, it would be almost impossible for others to find her.
And the key now is whether he can make it to the south alive, and whether he can hold on until he finds the senior Flower Fairy?
If you can wield a sword or control a spirit boat, you can save a lot of time and have more time to find the whereabouts of the senior flower fairy. But now you can only walk and you can never leave the ground, even if you are alone. There was no stopping on the road, and it would take at least a year or two to get to the south. What's more, with his current body, it was impossible to keep going for a moment. By then, he would be exhausted before he even got halfway through.
Master Qingming watched Li Xiuping take a sip of wine in advance. Knowing what the Master of Brewing had told him before, he couldn't help but ask: "Are you feeling well?"
Li Xiuping nodded, and then said: "It's better to find a place to rest first."
As soon as I finished speaking, a team came up behind me on horseback...
Some people died, but not completely...
