It passed through the hands of the treasure appraiser of the Five Poison Sect.
Li Shuidao's Kongling Sword and Cang Lei Sword were definitely belonging to the Yunmang Sword Sect, and the holders of these two swords indeed died within three years, which was completely consistent with what Li Shuidao said.
Three monks dressed in white robes and carrying the Taoist bones of the Immortal Wind came to the Taoist Sea Snake Cave with their feet on the light clouds.
There is an otherworldly charm between their brows, as if everything in the world is under their control.
One of the old monks held a golden lamp with a wick made of colored glaze. Another monk was holding a circle of jade books, which exuded a faint fluorescence.
Since the Tianbang War, Li Shuidao has been temporarily living in the Sea Snake Taoist Cave, waiting for the sect's canonization.
Li Shuidao emerged in the battle for the Tianbang, and it was only a matter of time before he was canonized by the sect.
Usually monks wait for canonization in the family ancestral hall, but Li Shuidao chose to stay in Dulong Ridge for his own safety.
After all, the third-level monks of the Yunmang Sword Sect don’t dare to come to this place, and even the fourth-level Formless True Lord has to weigh it...
If they don’t dare to take risks, they will definitely negotiate with themselves first.
Once they came to negotiate with him, Li Shuidao would make concessions and delay time...
If it doesn't work, the worst possible outcome is running away.
Fly far away!
Thirty-six strategies are the best.
"Li family, Li Shuidao has met the Immortal Master of the Ancestral Master Hall." Li Shuidao knelt down respectfully to greet the order.
The three monks who came are all monks of the Patriarch Hall. Even if they are not third-level monks, they are here on behalf of third-level monks, and they must have the proper etiquette.
Respecting the strong is the law of survival in this world.
The old monk slowly opened the golden edict in his hand and read: "With the approval of the Ancestral Master Hall, Li Shuidao of the Li family is promoted to a disciple of the Tianbang, and is given the soul lamp mark to be enshrined in the Elite Hall."
Li Shuidao felt a little uneasy when he heard this.
Regarding the soul lamp, he only heard about it two days ago.
Once the soul lamp is lit, if he dies unexpectedly, the soul lamp will be extinguished immediately and an alarm will be sent to the Five Poison Gates. And if Li Shuidao wants to betray the Five Poison Sect, then the red light will also become a guide for his life.
Generally speaking, only the core direct descendants of the four major families are qualified to light the soul lamp.
In addition, only a few extremely talented Tianbang monks have this "treatment".
Even Sea Snake Taoist Li Tianwu is not qualified to light the soul lamp in the sect.
Every soul lamp is valuable and is an extremely important cultivation resource. People who are not particularly valuable are not qualified to be lit by soul lamps.
In front of the three old monks, Li Shuidao took a deep breath and lit the soul lamp with his soul breath guard.
Once the soul lamp is lit, it emits a soft light, forming a wonderful connection with Li Shuidao's soul.
From then on, Li Shuidao truly became a disciple of the Five Poison Sect and could no longer betray the sect.
But since the sect asked him to light the soul lamp, it was naturally impossible to search for his soul at will.
The third monk in white handed a red token to Li Shuidao: "This is the Dongfu Order. With this order, you can open a cave in any unowned land in Dulong Ridge. After demarcating the cave, hand it over to the generals. Tang, they will naturally help you build it, and after it is completed, the cave will be yours."
Li Shuidao took the red token and said gratefully: "Thank you, three immortals."
The leading monk smiled and patted his shoulder and said, "You have a bright future."
After saying that, the three monks in white turned into three rays of light and disappeared into the sky.
Li Shuidao held the red token tightly and turned into a silver-gray light and left.
…
Dulong Ridge.
There is a small valley.
The scenery in the valley is very lively, with flowers blooming everywhere and a clear stream flowing, reflecting the clear blue sky.
In this picturesque scenery, there is a big tree that is half withered and half in full bloom.
Li Shuidao came to this valley with seven or eight "constructors" from the General Affairs Hall.
They are all wearing green robes and carrying various tools on their shoulders...
Li Shuidao pointed to a half-withered and half-prosperous big tree in front of him and said: "Keep this big tree and use it as an atrium and build houses around it."
He inserted the red Dongfu Token in his hand into the soil next to the tree...
Afterwards, Li Shuidao and several construction engineers began to discuss the newly built cave in detail. They surrounded the big tree, stepped on the soil, drew blueprints with their fingers in the air, and smiled with satisfaction from time to time during the conversation.
"The kitchen is located here, and you can enjoy the water from the mountain spring."
“The location of the water well should be carefully concealed to prevent outsiders from disturbing it.”
"The spiritual grass garden should be close to a stream to facilitate irrigation."
"The secret practice room should be built in a hidden place to avoid being discovered by outsiders."
"The storage room should be larger and can store all kinds of items."
After some exchanges, Li Shuidao left quietly...
Several construction engineers were busy shuttling between the big trees and rocks...
…
Tianchifang.
One city above ground and one city underground.
In the city above the ground, the owner of the shop, Li Shuihong, was the talker.
In the study, he was concentrating on reading the latest information sent by his family.
"The Li family is really full of talented people. In the battle of Tianbang, there were three wins and two losses. Especially the strength shown in the last battle was almost as good as that of Demon Finger Tai Sui. When grandpa knows about it, I am afraid he will be amazed. ." Li Shuihong whispered to himself.
"Father asked me how to give Li Shuidao proper treatment?" Li Shuihong frowned and thought, then turned to the deacon beside him and asked.
The deacon thought for a moment and then replied: "Although Li Shuidao is not as good as Li Tianwu in terms of seniority, his ranking on the Heavenly Ranking is far higher than him. I think he should be given at least an annual salary of five thousand spiritual stones."
Li Shuihong shook his head and said: "I understand what you mean, but the key is whether we should give him spiritual stones, elixirs, or something else? We must let him use it so that he can feel the family's care."
"How about we write and ask him?" the deacon suggested.
Li Shuihong pondered for a moment, nodded, immediately took the pen and ink, and started writing a letter.
Now that Li Shuidao's cave has not yet been built, this letter can only be sent to Li Tianwu first, and then handed over by him...
…
Underground city.
Dark hall.
Tall pillars support the ceiling...
There are white bones and skeletons hanging on these pillars, and the skeletons have braziers with blazing flames on them.
The whole hall is filled with an atmosphere of death and gloom...
Li Shuidao was the king who really controlled this place. He returned to Tianchifang quietly, and even Li Shuihong didn't know his whereabouts.
At this moment, nearly a hundred women were neatly lined up on both sides of the hall passage, their faces filled with anticipation and admiration.
"Welcome, Your Majesty!"
The voice was as graceful as birds approaching the phoenix, and seventy or eighty women all knelt down and saluted. The solemnity of the scene was like the arrival of the most noble king in heaven and earth.
Zhao Ling'er, the female warrior wearing a ghost-faced sword, stood upright in front of Li Shuidao, clasping her fists and reporting: "Your Majesty, since you left, we have successively recruited forty-six more qualified people. Disciples. They are all waiting here, hoping that the Lord will reveal the path of cultivation for them."
Li Shuidao nodded slightly, his deep eyes turning around a group of women who looked like wolves and tigers...
He said in a deep voice: "You have done a good job, please don't recruit me again in the future."
Zhao Ling'er: "..."
After hearing this, Li Shuidao couldn't help but sigh and explained: "Zhao Ling'er, you know that your master Xia Ruoxue has encountered an accident, and I am afraid that he can no longer refine the blood-transforming magic pill. There is not enough blood-transforming magic pill, and I can't open it for them. The path of cultivation.”
Hearing this, Zhao Linger's eyes filled with tears, and her heart was full of reluctance.
Li Shuidao comforted her: "Actually, you don't have to be too sad. She didn't really die. She just moved to another place to survive. Maybe one day in the future, we will have the opportunity to meet again."
After Zhao Ling'er heard this, her mood stabilized a little, but she still asked eagerly: "Master, where did she go? I must find her!"
Li Shuidao shook his head and replied calmly: "I can't tell you yet." There was a bit of helplessness and seriousness in his eyes, which made Zhao Ling'er dare not ask further.
"Are there enough blood-transforming magic pills in stock now?" Li Shuidao asked again.
"Yes, Lord. The blood-transforming magic elixir stored in the secret vault is enough to supply the newly recruited disciples." Zhao Ling'er replied respectfully.
Li Shuidao nodded and ordered: "Okay, today you will take out two pills to start the path of cultivation for the two newly recruited female disciples."
After hearing this, Zhao Ling'er immediately responded respectfully: "Yes, Your Majesty. I'll go get ready right now."
After a while...
On a stone bed.
The two female cultivators were tied up with iron chains. Their delicate bodies could not move, and they could only let a large number of disgusting bugs wreak havoc on their bodies. Their shrill howls were filled with endless fear and helplessness.
Li Shuidao took off his shirt, revealing his strong body, showing no fear of the next challenge.
Starting their path of cultivation was a very physically demanding thing for Li Shuidao.
He needs to concentrate and maximize the energy in his body. His sweat dripped on the stone bed, mixing with the tears of the female nuns, forming a strange tacit understanding...
He did the same thing every day...
Only now did Li Shuidao realize how ridiculous his previous idea of creating power was.
Treasures are king!
A Dragon Bone Tai Sui is better than all forces.
However, the power is not without benefits. At least he can help you find out the information and source of the treasure. It is better than being blind and practicing hard in seclusion.
…
Although Li Shuidao stayed underground in Tianchifang, he was able to obtain a lot of information through the secret hall.
However, the intelligence or channels of the dark hall are limited. They can only obtain detailed information around Tianchifang Yiyu. It is simply impossible to have an overview of major events in the world.
He still needs an official identity, only in this way can he obtain information about the entire Tianyuan Continent.
Li Shuidao stayed underground in Tianchifang for more than two months before he started the cultivation path for all the newly recruited female disciples. At the same time, he also transferred twelve people and asked Zhao Ling'er to take them to Dulong Ridge immediately.
These twelve people will stay in Li Shuidao's newly built cave to process information for him...
