On one side of Xinmu Valley is an abyss composed of two cliffs. The width of the abyss is only ten or twenty feet, and its depth reaches a thousand feet.
There are a lot of grass, trees and shrubs on both sides of the cliff, with lush branches and leaves, making this place not so obvious.
Two figures, a man and a woman, entered the abyss from the cliff and soon disappeared among the cover of various vegetation.
"This shallow abyss is the real location of my Li family's Xinmu Valley. Originally, this cliff was just rocks. After the family was established here, it was gradually built up. The outermost edge is some ordinary trees, and many plants that can shield the gods are planted inside. The spiritual plant of consciousness..."
While the low and clear female voice kept introducing the situation here, Li Qiao, who was following behind her, listened to what the other party said while constantly observing the surrounding situation. As she gradually went deeper into the abyss, some traces of the formation's operation also appeared. gradually revealed.
However, while observing the situation, the elegant and graceful back of the female cultivator in front will also come into view.
There is basically no ugly female cultivator. This female cultivator is still one of the most outstanding among the female foundation builders. In recent years, Li Qiao's thoughts have been either on how to advance to the golden elixir or how to quickly improve her strength after being promoted to the golden elixir. , and did not think about the matter between men and women, but after all, he had experienced it. This female cultivator kept wandering in front of him. After a while, it caused a ripple in his heart, causing some scenes in his memory to briefly emerge.
Fortunately, Li Qiao's mind was not focused on this, and he quickly suppressed the ripples. He focused mainly on observing the surrounding situation. After all, he didn't know how long he would stay here, and he didn't know how long he would stay here. You never know when something unexpected will happen, so it’s important to be familiar with the environment.
"This is the cave of the previous elder. Should the elder choose to live here directly, or choose a new location to open a cave, but the formation here..." Stopping at a place that looked like a rock, Li Yingzi looked at the newly arrived temporary The elder said so.
In Li Qiao's eyes, the formation that blocked the entrance to the cave seemed like nothing. He saw it very clearly. Without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, he said directly: "This is fine."
After all, this place is only temporary and he may leave at any time. For Li Qiao, it is enough to have a cave to deal with.
If you choose to reopen the cave, you must first choose a location, and then mobilize the family monks to do it. Seeing that the new family elder has no idea of rebuilding the cave, Li Yingzi said again: "Then I will lead the elders to other places in the family first. Take a look, and finally return to the cave to introduce the situation inside."
"good!"
After he had read through the general situation of the family and the female cultivator left her new cave, Li Qiao began to look at the cave again and made some modifications to the formations.
As for Li Yingzi, who left Li Qiao and returned to her cave, the smile that had been on her face disappeared in an instant.
"One is gone and he's not around all the time, and another one comes and has been around for a few years. It's really bad."
After muttering something like this, the female cultivator began to take off her clothes.
"Always Absent" is her unique name for the previous female elder of the family, because she often found out that she was not in the family when she looked for her. But now it's better, "Always Absent" has become "Never Absent".
Originally, I had some expectations for the new elder in the family, but it turned out that he was only temporary. Feeling a little dissatisfied, I affectionately called him in my heart and waited for a few years.
It was obvious that the temporary elder like the other party was not thinking about the monks from the collateral families at all. After simply saying something, he ran into the air to understand the surrounding situation. The other family monks could retreat, but But she, the leader of the clan, couldn't do it. She ran to the other party's side and followed him all the way without saying a word, and she had to explain the situation everywhere.
She just had a smile on her face, but she was actually not happy at all.
The appointment as a family elder did not bring her any benefits, but it gave her a hobby. She once accidentally discovered that there were traces of pictures on the body of the previous female elder. She was not sure what it was and did not ask, but was curious. I also painted on myself.
Originally, she just wanted to try it and then erase it, but with her consciousness, the feeling of the brush traveling on her body made her develop a hobby in one go.
.
At this moment, there are many exquisite patterns on some of the stone walls of her cave. They were all exquisite paintings that she had painted on her body. However, after they were transferred from her body to the wall, they lost their unique beauty.
First, she used a magic technique to cleanse her skin, and then the brush continued to wander among the crystal white skin. The female cultivator's somewhat bad mood gradually improved.
As time went by, Li Qiao, who stayed in Xin Mugu, gradually discovered that he had made a mistake in his judgment.
Originally, he thought that such a small and isolated cultivating force would easily attract prying eyes and would cause chaos. However, this was not the case. The collateral families stood here quietly, and rarely happened. The several situations that occurred were also caused by individual casual cultivators, and were solved by the family foundation-building cultivators, without any need for Li Qiao to take action.
From this situation, Li Qiao judged that this place was further away from other immortal cultivating forces than he initially thought. After all, most Jindan cultivators came from a certain force and generally did not stray too far from their own sphere of influence.
When a golden elixir enemy appears, Li Qiao thinks he can deal with it or deal with it, and he can run away if he can't defeat it. However, high-level monks generally look down on such small cultivating families. If a Nascent Soul monk appears, he can only choose to run away.
But he is not too worried about the Nascent Soul cultivator. As far as Li Qiao knows, under normal circumstances, a Nascent Soul cultivator will not easily touch a cultivator family unless he understands it thoroughly.
It might be okay to disturb one Immortal Cultivation Family, or two, but the more you move, the greater the possibility of trouble. After all, it is not easy to be promoted to Nascent Soul, and no one is willing to take risks easily. .z.
Because most of the cultivating families that can exist in the world of cultivating immortals were once sect-level forces, and if they can still exist now, they basically have Nascent Soul-level monks, and even the existence of god-transforming monks is not a surprise.
Some immortal cultivating families will be destroyed if they are destroyed by Nascent Soul monks, while some immortal cultivating families can really have god-transformation cultivators pop up.
And this situation also made Li Qiao gradually become bored after learning all the ancient formation knowledge he had brought with him.
"Elder?"
"come in!"
The only person who would affect Li Qiao's peace and quiet was the foundation-building clan leader named Li Yingzi. Some matters would always be decided by him as an elder.
Originally, in this situation, direct spiritual sound transmission within a certain range was enough, but Li Qiao felt that his position would be easily exposed in this way, so he chose to let the other party come in to talk every time.
This time it's still the case.
And Li Yingzi, who had entered the Elder's Cave many times, felt the aura environment here was richer than the last time she came here, and felt it was a waste.
The collateral families all have spirit gathering formations. When they were first established, these monks were not the only ones who came, there were also other monks who helped establish the family. However, after the construction was almost completed, the monks who helped would leave, so the collateral families The effect of the family spirit gathering array is not weak.
The spiritual energy gathered by the spirit gathering array not only maintains the operation of the array, but also provides training for some family monks. As the elder of the collateral family with the highest cultivation level, the spiritual energy environment in the cave must be the best.
If it's just like this, it's okay, but the golden elixir monk mainly cultivates the soul. If the real energy is not consumed in the body and needs to be replenished, the spiritual energy will only accumulate more and more, and the caves of the golden elixir monks basically have devices to prevent the spiritual energy from escaping. Formation.
After Li Qiao came here, apart from learning formations, he didn't even practice any spells.
As the only family golden elixir here, Li Qiao doesn't have much sense of security. He likes to keep himself in the best condition, which also causes the aura environment here to become increasingly high.
"This is the quota allocation for this year's cultivation talents. Please take a look at it, elders." While speaking, Li Yingzi handed a jade slip to Li Qiao's hand.
In fact, Li Qiao was just doing it as a formality, and wouldn't ask too much about things that had little to do with him.
But this form must be adopted, instead of letting these family foundations directly make the decision and release the power directly. Although I am hanging around here, it is useful to understand some of the situation, and if I want to intervene in the future, I can intervene at any time. .
"Okay...what is this?"
When sending the jade slip back, Li Qiao's eyes stayed on the other party and asked this question.
Because the other party has been here many times and is very familiar with the spiritual consciousness of this clan leader, he did not pay attention to the situation on the other party at first. At this moment, when the other party moved, a small colorful mark was revealed, which made Li Qiao was a little curious, but after all, he couldn't use his spiritual sense to check the other person's body, so he asked directly.
Following the other person's gaze, Li Yingzi soon discovered that the painting she drew this time was a bit too big, and she inadvertently exposed a small part of it from the collarbone.
After a brief pause, an unnatural expression flashed across the female cultivator's face, she took a few steps back and took off her clothes with a very skillful movement.
Li Qiao had no reaction to this. It was obvious that the other party wanted to show him his condition. This was normal. Was he injured or something?
After a wonderful painting was fully unfolded in front of him, Li Qiao still looked confused. It looked like a painting? Why are you painting this on your body?
"I once saw such marks on the body of the previous elder, so I gave it a try!"
Hearing such an answer, Li Qiao immediately understood what was going on. After all, they were both Golden Elixir monks, and they also knew about the simplified method similar to the Golden Elixir Clothes. However, Li Qiao didn't like it and didn't like using it on himself. Do whatever you want.
The person in front of me, without knowing the specific situation, actually drew pictures on his body.
"Does it look good?" Seeing Hun Nian's eyes lingering on her, a smile appeared on Li Yingzi's lips. While asking, she turned around slowly.
Although as a monk, he should be free and easy, so doing this is nothing, but Li Yingzi did this for a purpose.
If she continued to practice normally at the current speed, she would have to practice for many years. She couldn't afford to wait, but if she could practice in the elder's cave, her cultivation speed would be much faster.
She knew that the spiritual energy here was only the result of long-term accumulation. It would return to normal after practicing for a period of time, but even if it returned to normal, it would still be much higher than in her cave.
After learning that the previous elder had died, she came here to try to practice before the new elder arrived.
Moreover, these people have only been temporary elders for a few years and will inevitably leave in the future. As long as the relationship is closer, they can return to the main clan with each other, and the road will be safer.
However, this was not done on purpose. If she had to do this, she would have done it long ago. It was just a coincidence that she decided to do this after the other party asked her what was on her body.
It was originally just a simple question, but this situation was beyond Li Qiao's expectation, and he couldn't help but said: "You don't treat the elders as outsiders."
"If you like it, you can watch more!" Li Yingzi replied. She was expecting the other party to do something, but after a while, she saw that although the other party kept looking at her, there was no sign of any movement. After all, she was defeated. Come, pack up and leave quickly.
Is Li Qiao's moral character in cultivating immortals greatly improved? No, otherwise he wouldn't have been watching. If the other party was not the clan leader here, but a random monk he met, Li Qiao would never let him go.
The same family monks, unless they appreciate each other, generally not many family monks are together, and those who are together are basically one with higher cultivation and one with lower cultivation. Is this true love? Stop making trouble, most of them are going for one party's cultivation resources. If the other party is a Qi-training monk, if you dare to be so presumptuous in front of him, you will definitely not be able to leave.
But as a foundation-building cultivator and a clan leader, Li Qiao wasn't sure how much the other party's appetite was. Moreover, although the other party was good-looking and had a good figure, he wouldn't be infatuated with him.
As for eating it directly, giving nothing, and the other party can't do anything, Li Qiao didn't think so. He was here temporarily, not here to ruin his reputation!
Aren't they just female nuns? I just went out to find one recently!
It just so happened that he had nothing to do recently, and he didn't know how long it would take before he could go back. Li Qiao was not the kind of monk who disliked enjoyment. It was just the pressure of cultivation that kept him from thinking about such things for a while, but the words of the clan leader around him The operation directly aroused his anger.
The female cultivator who returned to her cave was even more angry.
"You bastard, after all these years of living, I've become like this, and yet you don't even care. You're so cowardly that you don't even accept anything that comes to your door!"
In fact, what she wanted was not much, and it could be regarded as a momentary impulse. However, after the other party was unmoved, it was somewhat difficult for her to negotiate directly with the other party with a clearly stated price.
Although she failed, the angry female cultivator did not want to give up.
"You must do what you have to do!" If it was just for cultivation before, it is more than that now.
