"Yes, quite good." Li Yuan showed the expression of a strong man looking at a weak one, and said calmly, "Elder Ge, the third move is coming, you must be ready."
"Wait! I admit defeat!" Ge Junyu said quickly, "I have used Yuan Shu. Although it is not an attack-like Yuan Shu, you still broke through the defense. I am not your opponent.
"I, Ge Junyu, keep my word and can assure you that no one else will bother you in the future."
Now that the other party has admitted defeat, Li Yuan will not hold on to him. They both live in Courtyard A and will have to get along with each other for a while in the future.
What's more, if Ge Junyu is made embarrassed, Luo Zirou's face will not be easy.
As long as it's good, don't be too arrogant or arrogant on the territory of Qianyun Palace.
Just as Li Yuan was about to turn around and return to Li Yunqing and others, he frowned slightly and suddenly noticed that not far behind, a powerful aura was hiding in the crowd, watching them.
"Zizzizi..."
A flying thunder blade appeared out of thin air and fired towards the crowd, causing the sound of wind to break through the air.
Seeing the thunder flying blade flying over, all the disciples of Qianyun Palace were terrified. Once stabbed, they would definitely die.
When he was three to four feet away from the crowd, a machete flew out from the crowd.
"clang--"
The flying blade collided with the scimitar, making a harsh sound, which made many Qianyun Palace disciples rush to use their energy to protect their hearing.
"Haha! I don't mean any harm, old man."
A hearty laugh came from the crowd.
Then, an old man wearing black and red robes with a dark face came out, gently raised his hand, and took the scimitar into his hand.
The thunder flying blade also flew back, hovering around Li Yuan.
"Grandpa Hei, why are you here?" Luo Zirou shouted excitedly.
The old man touched his beard and said with a smile: "I just passed by and saw this boy mastering the thunder system, so I took a second look. I didn't expect to be discovered by this boy."
Seeing Luo Zirou being so close to the old man, and the latter's friendly face, Li Yuancai lowered his guard and put away the flying blade.
With so many people present, it was impossible for the other party to attack him without reason.
"Li Yuan, this is Grandpa Songhei, one of the enshrinements of Qianyun Palace.
"Even though he looks quite dark, he's a bit scary, he's a very nice guy, and he doesn't have the airs of a strong man at all. I call him Grandpa Black.
"Grandpa Hei, this is Li Yuan, the friend I made in Meteor City, and the three people over there are with him." Luo Zirou made a brief introduction to avoid further conflicts.
First there is Wei Ning, who has been very popular in Qianyun Palace in the past two years, and then there is Ge Junyu, who is in the top ten of Qianyun Palace A courtyard, and now he is even offering sacrifices in Qianyun Palace.
The disciples of Qianyun Palace were all excited when a strong man who was rarely encountered in Qianyun Palace appeared.
Song Hei nodded happily and said with a smile: "Not bad, not bad. He has the aura of the eight geniuses."
"How can this junior compare with senior Song Hei. At one hundred and fifty-one years old, he has reached the peak of the early stage of Nirvana and is only one step away from the middle stage of Nirvana.
"I believe that in as little as three years and as long as five years, seniors will be able to break through that barrier. I would like to congratulate seniors in advance." Li Yuan smiled slightly and cupped his hands.
As soon as these words came out, Song Hei's eyes were slightly shocked, and he lost consciousness for a moment.
He didn't expect that Li Yuan could tell his age and cultivation level at a glance.
Fortunately for Luo Zirou, she had seen Li Yuan's detection ability in Senior Bing before.
"Haha. How can I compare with you geniuses? The early stages of Nirvana are not yours yet." Song Hei, who came back to his senses, smiled and touched the white beard on his chin, "With Na Bing Compared to girls, I am nothing worth mentioning."
Li Yuan naturally knew who the ice girl Song Hei mentioned was.
His eyes glanced at a roof in Courtyard A. It seemed casual, but it was like two electric rays of light shooting straight at it.
At this moment, the snow on the roof was slightly loosened. Although it was subtle and difficult for ordinary people to notice, it could not escape Li Yuan's eyes.
"Junyu boy, you look down on this and that all day long. You are so arrogant in Qianyun Palace that your eyes almost grow to the sky.
"How is it? You hit a nail today. You deserve to be embarrassed." Song Hei looked at Ge Junyu in the distance and scolded him.
Touching his head in embarrassment, Ge Junyu nodded to Song Hei and said, "Song Hei taught you a lesson."
"Young man... you have a good talent. But don't be too ambitious. If you want to enter the First Academy, wait for another two years! Let the cultivation of Yuan Dan in the later stage be completely stable first, and then come again."
Ignoring Ge Junyu again, the old man expressed admiration and advice to Wei Ning.
After talking about Weining, he looked at Fang Baiyao at the door of Courtyard A and shouted loudly: "Boyao, what do you think Xiao Jiujiu can't hide from me? Since there is a challenge assessment, we should follow the past rules."
"Song worship, Bai Yao has written it down and will definitely change it." Fang Bai Yao bowed and said respectfully.
After looking around, Song Hei said sternly: "Let's all disperse. Do whatever you need to do, just join in the fun."
After the old man finished speaking, he realized that something was wrong. Why did he also mention himself? He hurriedly smiled at Li Yuan and said, "Boy, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. We'll see you again by fate."
Before he finished speaking, Songhei had already swept out of the square.
Luo Zirou stamped her feet and said coquettishly, "Let's just leave."
This challenge and assessment initiated by Wei Ning in Court A was messed up randomly by Yuan Yao, and so many people were involved in it. This matter spread among the disciples of Qianyun Palace.
Although Li Yuan and others are not the elders of the A-yard, they are said to be amazing by everyone. Some people even rearranged the top ten positions of the A-yard, and all four of them, Li Yuan, are among them.
The worshipers of Qianyun Palace were indifferent to anything in Qianyun Palace, but they also paid attention to Li Yuan and others.
On the hill where Qianyun Temple is located, in a courtyard, a woman in white clothes looked at the snowy scene outside the room and murmured: "He can actually detect my aura, but I can't detect his cultivation.
"Could it be that he is wearing an ingot similar to Luo Zirou's Guanbai necklace, which can detect aura and hide aura at the same time.
“Also, the flying knife he used seems to be from Leiyin Valley.
"Are they disciples of Leiyin Valley?"
After taking a look at the location of Courtyard A, the woman in white turned around and walked towards the back room.
………
At the same time, in a courtyard of Elder A's Courtyard, Li Yuan and others were sitting around a stone table, staring at the flying blades placed on the table, with some cracks added to them.
"Is the scimitar in the black old man's hand really so powerful? Or is he too strong? Just one collision and the flying blade broke."
There was a look of shock and confusion in Shi Chen's eyes.
Using this flying blade, Li Yuan killed many powerful men.
Li Yunqing gently stroked the cracks on the flying blade with his jade hand, with a solemn expression: "It seems that we should be careful when facing Nirvana strong men in the future, they are too strong."
"Uh. Fortunately, I didn't run into that old man, otherwise..." Yuan Yao felt a little scared after thinking about it.
She suddenly stood up and said confidently: "What am I afraid of? I have a black umbrella in my hand, and I am afraid of his small scimitar."
Touching his chin and thinking for a long time, Li Yuan finally said: "The flying blade is a top-quality treasure that was accidentally acquired. It seems to be an imitation of the Xuandian Thunder Blade. It has been with me for twenty years. It's time to replace it. Hurry up. It’s time to replace the thirty-year-old Lanyun Bow.
"There is a clear gap in power between Zong Bao and Wang Bao. I hope to find some good Wang Bao before going to Xia Yang City.
"However, the top priority is to improve my strength. The environment here is good, and I am going to start retreat tomorrow to strive to raise my cultivation to the peak of perfection and add two more royal treasures.
"At that time, it should be no problem to face the early stage of Nirvana alone. Even the peak of the early stage is still capable of fighting."
Li Yuan discussed with them for a long time, and then returned to his room to rest, recharge his batteries, and prepare to retreat.
………
Spring passes and autumn comes, year after year, time passes quickly.
No matter how the seasons change, Qianyun Palace is still white and unchanged.
One and a half years passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period, Elder A's Courtyard became extremely magical, and the disciples' descriptions and exaggerations of it even surpassed those of Qianyun Palace.
The elders who lived there were also very proud.
The reason for this is that more than a few months after Li Yuan and others moved into Elder A's Courtyard, thunderclouds appeared in the sky above Court A from time to time.
People outside don't know the reason, but the elders of the A-level dean can guess that this phenomenon may be caused by Li Yuan and others.
Because the center of the thundercloud is right above the courtyard where they live, the specific cause is unknown.
The consecration of Qianyun Temple speculates that perhaps there lived a Yuan who practiced thunder attribute skills, which caused the strange phenomena in the world.
There is also speculation that there may be a high-level alchemist or treasure refining master among them, who often refines high-level elixirs and ingots and causes changes.
However, no one believes this speculation. After all, Li Yuanji is only at the Yuan Dan realm.
What's more, thunderclouds appear too frequently, several times a day.
You know, it usually takes a day and a half for a king-level alchemist to refine a king pill, no matter how short it is.
One day, Fang Boyao looked at the thunderclouds in the sky and rushed to the courtyard where Li Yuan and others lived.
He walked back and forth in front of the courtyard door several times, and finally knocked on the courtyard door and shouted anxiously into the courtyard: "Is Li Yuan here?"
"Elder Fang, okay!" Shi Chen walked to the door.
Fang Boyao cupped his hands towards Shi Chen and said worriedly: "Shi Chen, Miss Yuanyao had a conflict with someone at the Qianyun Chamber of Commerce, and there is some trouble."
Shi Chen slapped him on the forehead. To make Elder Fang so anxious, this little girl must have caused a lot of trouble.
This troublemaker.
When Luo Zirou left Qianyun City before, she specifically asked Fang Baiyao to take care of Li Yuan and the others.
If there is anything you need help with, try to provide support.
This is not a good job. Yuan Yao gets into trouble all day long, and Fang Boyao follows behind to wipe his butt every day.
However, this time, the trouble was a bit big.
"Please tell me what the specific matter is. It's not convenient for Li Yuan right now. It will probably take a while." Shi Chen asked bravely.
Next, Fang Boyao told Shi Chen what happened in detail.
The Qianyun Chamber of Commerce in Qianyun City held its annual auction event today.
After Yuan Yao heard about it, she also wanted to join in the fun.
Li Yuan is refining medicine, Li Yunqing has been in seclusion to reach the peak of perfection, and Shi Chen needs to protect them.
The little girl sneaked out while Shi Chen was not paying attention.
Among the many lots at the Qianyun Chamber of Commerce's annual auction, Yuan Yao took a fancy to a gold ingot called Mercury Leaf.
Speaking of which, Mercury Leaf and Black Light Zhuyun Umbrella came from the same place, Qianjimen, one of the eight sects.
The mercury leaf is made by Qianjimen using the silver ice crystal at the bottom of the Tianchi Lake. It is a top-grade royal treasure and one of the best hidden weapons among the royal treasures.
Once the blood is shed and the owner is recognized, the device can be stored in the body, and the energy can be poured into it, and then the energy can be driven out of the body, and it will turn into an energy leaf exactly like a mercury leaf.
Once the energy leaf is sacrificed, it is comparable to the Yuan Technique performed by the current cultivation level.
If you want to activate the mercury leaves, you must be a Yuan practitioner who practices powerful water-based techniques, or you must have a Yuan bone that can control the water-based Yuan power.
Yuan Yao is the Nine Fantasy Abyss, and the blood inheritance itself can control the two elements of water and wood.
When she saw mercury leaves, she was very excited and had a natural affinity for this thing.
Due to realm reasons, Yuan Yao was unable to inherit the Yuan Shu passed down by his bloodline.
After breaking through to the Yuanshen realm, she might inherit Yuan Shu, but it would only be an auxiliary Yuan Shu.
If she could possess a hidden weapon of the highest royal treasure level like Mercury Leaf, it would undoubtedly greatly enhance her strength.
Although the things are good, they are not cheap. The mercury leaf provided by Qianyun Chamber of Commerce is an element that can bleed the master.
The starting price given by the Chamber of Commerce is 50,000 top-grade Yuan Stones. If someone who is not a water-type Yuan can activate it, the starting price is estimated to be more than 80,000 top-grade Yuan Stones.
With such a high price, even the powerful Qianyun City had no bidders, causing Mercury Leaf to fail in the auction.
Yuan Yao couldn't afford such a sum of money. When she went back to beg Li Yuan, she was worried that Li Yuan wouldn't be able to give it either.
If the mercury leaf fails to be photographed, no one knows where it will go next.
Yuan Yao had an idea and sneaked in secretly before Mercury Leaf was transported out of Qianyun Chamber of Commerce and stole Mercury Leaf.
The Qianyun Chamber of Commerce's treasure house has many institutions, but to Jiuhuanyuan, these institutions are in name only and pose no threat at all.
He escaped from the agency, but not from the person who was watching him.
The auction items were personally supervised by Chi Gaohan, the president of the Qianhui Chamber of Commerce, and he was also invited to the Qianyun Temple to worship Yu Lesheng and guard them together. Both of them had the peak cultivation level of the early stage of Nirvana.
Yu Lesheng is an orc, and compared with the general middle stage of Nirvana, he is no less generous.
Although Shi Chen had reached the peak of Yuan Dan Perfection not long ago, he was still far from being able to compete with Yu Lesheng, let alone Chi Gaohan who had the same level of cultivation.
"Thank you, Elder Fang, for informing me." Shi Chen said gratefully.
"You have to get Li Yuan to Qianyun Chamber of Commerce as soon as possible, Miss Yuan Yao is struggling with them.
"Yu Gongfeng knows that she lives in Courtyard A, so he shouldn't do anything to her.
"It's just that Miss Yuan Yao refuses to hand over the mercury leaves. If the confrontation between the two parties lasts for a long time, it will be difficult to talk." Fang Boyao gave a few instructions and left in a hurry.
After sending Fang Boyao away, Shi Chen walked back and forth in the courtyard, unable to make up his mind.
He didn't know how long it would take Li Yuan to refine this batch of elixir.
After waiting here for a while, just as he was preparing to go to Qianyun Chamber of Commerce, the thunderclouds disappeared in the sky. Shi Chen hurriedly rushed into the alchemy room behind the courtyard and explained the situation to Li Yuan.
"If the two peaks of the early stage of Nirvana don't use their true methods, they won't be able to catch her." Li Yuan said calmly.
Shi Chen worriedly said: "If she arouses people's murderous intentions..."
"Then let her suffer a little and cause trouble every day. She bullies the disciples of Qianyun Palace every day.
"She is such a cute and lively girl, but others look at her as if they are seeing a devil." Li Yuan said lightly.
He said it lightly, but he didn't stay in the hospital for too long, after all, he was facing two people in Nirvana.
After sorting things out for a while, Li Yuan asked Shi Chen to stay and protect Li Yunqing and went to Qianyun Chamber of Commerce alone.
………
Qianyun Chamber of Commerce is the largest chamber of commerce in Qianyun City, monopolizing all large trading markets in Qianyun City.
The reason is that the boss behind it is the Da Luo royal family, so they can be invited to Qianyun Palace to worship.
The Chamber of Commerce is located northeast of Qianyun Peak, and nightfall always falls earlier.
There was still the last glow of the setting sun on the peak, and lights were on around the Chamber of Commerce.
"boom--"
A roof collapsed somewhere on the street opposite Qianyun Chamber of Commerce, dust and smoke rose, and a black umbrella spun quickly and flew out.
"Shizi Yu, we are neighbors after all. Do you need to be so cruel?"
The black umbrella hovered in the air, and a wisp of green mist flew out, spinning in a circle and falling on the black umbrella, turning into a human form, and roared at an orc with a lion's head and body on the roof not far away.
The beastman is enshrined in Qianyun Temple, Yu Lesheng.
