The road back to the family is not stable, and the time spent on the journey is measured in years. It is also possible for these family foundation-building monks to die on the road. Completing the mission does not mean they are safe. The key is whether they can return safely. .z.
After being separated from other family foundations, Li Qiao was not in a hurry to go back. Instead, he first found a temporary cave and sorted out the storage bags he had obtained before. He looked at the many storage bags on his body and thought After returning to the family, I have to get a storage magic weapon no matter what.
After that, it was time to rush on the road. On the way back to the family, Li Qiao did not waste time. He just wanted to go back as soon as possible and quickly improve his strength. The fighting monks of this family had many rewards, but they were accompanied by risks along the way.
In addition to recovering my soul and practicing normally when I could practice, most of the rest of the time was spent on the road. I didn’t think about what to do on the way, which would only waste more time. It took less than three years to return to the family. .
On the way back, a dangerous thing happened. I met a Nascent Soul monk.
I don't know if he was attracted by the many storage bags on his body and came straight to Li Qiao. Maybe he thought that the golden elixir monk could not escape, but the other party did not use teleportation immediately.
Li Qiao, who discovered the crisis, instantly entered the state of spiritual destruction. When he found that the target suddenly disappeared for no reason, the Nascent Soul monk teleported to the location where Li Qiao had just disappeared, and searched around, but there was no trace of him. Ming Yuanying shot at the air around the place where Li Qiao had just disappeared, but found nothing. In the end, he lingered nearby for some time before leaving unwillingly.
Although he escaped through invisibility, it also consumed a lot of spirit evil spirits, making Li Qiao even more obsessed with storing magic weapons.
Normally, a Golden Core cultivator and a Nascent Soul cultivator see each other at a distance. When their spiritual consciousness has not met, if there are no obvious characteristics, as long as the flying speed is reduced in time, the other party cannot be sure that he is a Golden Core cultivator. No. Will definitely come.
Although the golden elixir clothing is very obvious, the multiple storage bags also contributed a lot. If Li Qiao had a magic weapon for storage and would go out to do missions in the future, it would be wisest to temporarily cancel the golden elixir clothing for safety on the way back.
Although the stealth method is very useful, it has a time limit after all. If you encounter extremely embarrassing situations continuously and cause the spirit evil to be completely consumed, it will be really doomed.
After this incident, I became more cautious during the journey. Fortunately, no other dangerous situations occurred.
After returning to the family, he first found the clan leader and handed over the shadow stone, which also marked the official completion of the mission.
At this moment, none of the foundation-building monks who followed have returned, and they don’t know how many will die on the way.
After that, Li Qiao went to the place where the family exchanged magic weapons, hoping to find the stored magic weapons, but the trip was still in vain. Knowing that he didn't know how long it would take to wait like this, he didn't wait any longer and went directly to a family weapon refiner to inquire about direct refining.
The refining problem was not big, but the refining materials were difficult to find. In the end, it was Li Qiao who spread the news among the family and exchanged enough materials from other golden elixir monks in the family at a premium to finally refine a storage magic weapon. .
Compared with the storage bag that is clearly carried on the body, this storage magic weapon is much smaller and in the shape of a bracelet. It is also much more concealed when worn on the body.
In order to exchange for this storage magic weapon, Li Qiao exchanged all the net magic weapons he got this time. Even if the ordinary materials in hand are worth far more than a magic weapon together, no one is willing to exchange them.
Although a large amount of ordinary materials can be given to the family to exchange for elixirs needed for cultivation, because there are restrictions on the number of elixirs that can be exchanged, they are not very attractive to golden elixir monks, and some golden elixir monks can directly use The most important thing is the materials for refining magic weapons. Whether there is a magic weapon or not has a great impact on the golden elixir stage monks.
It took a total of nearly two years from collecting materials, to refining, to getting the storage magic weapon, and the cost was much higher than that of a normal storage magic weapon. But when you get the storage magic weapon, you can feel the contents of the items stored inside. The space is the size of dozens of storage bags, but Li Qiao feels it is worth it.
Although he has a magic weapon for storage, Li
Qiao still carries a storage bag with him, otherwise wouldn't it be easy for people to guess that he has a storage magic weapon on him?
Apart from this incident, Li Qiao spent most of his time practicing and quietly waiting for the next mission.
The second mission did not take too long. It was also to kill a certain cultivator family that provoked the Li family. However, the result this time was very bad. After killing the Golden Core cultivator of the other family, a Nascent Soul cultivator suddenly appeared. , although Li Qiao escaped by entering the invisible state, almost all the foundation-building monks who followed him were wiped out.
As for why there were two left, it was not that the Nascent Soul monk was slow, but that when he was halfway through the kill, a high-level monk suddenly appeared. Li Qiao, who was in the invisible state, could not feel the strength of the opponent's consciousness, but that The continuous flashes that keep appearing can be seen.
In the end, the Nascent Soul monk teleported away, and the high-level monks who appeared chased him away. I don't know what the outcome would be, leaving only a messy battle scene.
Seeing this situation, Li Qiao was very suspicious that the high-level male monk who appeared was from his own family. If there was a Nascent Soul monk from the other family, he would try to kill him. If not, he would not show up.
Even so, it is estimated that the high-level monks will not come every time, but it is just a guess and there is no way to confirm it. It is impossible for Li Qiao to risk herself appearing in front of that high-level monk.
However, after returning to the family safely this time, the patriarch specifically asked Li Qiao about the entire incident, especially the appearance of the Yuanying monk, and how he, his biggest target, the Jindan monk, had escaped. Pulse Mie Xing demonstrated it, and when he found out that it was a ghostly cultivation technique and it was confirmed that it was being targeted by some means, the clan leader didn't care.
After returning to the family this time, in addition to normal cultivation, something else happened.
That is, all the Jindan monks in the family gathered together and witnessed the process of enforcing the clan rules.
Although there are family rules, it is impossible for all family monks to abide by them. There are always some people who think that they are doing it without anyone noticing, or some other situations occur.
As for the monks who seriously violated the clan rules, they would not simply kill them. Instead, they would be kept alive and tortured in various ways. Only when they reached a certain number, they would be tortured to death in front of all the family golden elixirs.
For safety reasons, the size of the place is limited, so only Jindan monks will participate. However, the entire execution process will be made into a memorial stone, which will be circulated among all the family monks.
In addition to the process of torture and death, the photo stones produced also included the figures of their family's golden elixirs. However, the golden elixir monks all covered their faces, and only a small number of golden elixir monks appeared. They did not want the family's true strength to be exposed. go out.
Compared with the ancient rituals that I have seen before, this family's punishment is more cruel, and this process of displaying the family rules has also made countless family monks more respectful of the family rules.
It is said that after the clan rules are shown once, it will be difficult to violate the clan rules for a long time. As time goes by, the clan rules become weaker and weaker in the hearts of some family monks, and it is necessary to show them again.
This is also the first time Li Qiao has seen this kind of situation. It probably only exists in the main clan, and he has never heard of it in the collateral clan.
Somewhere secret.
"Would you like this opportunity..." A female cultivator's voice sounded here.
"If you try hard once and fail, thousands of years of savings will be lost. This time the hope is not great. There is still time. Just wait." A male cultivator's voice responded.
"Then just wait."
If Li Qiao were here, he would definitely feel familiar when he saw these two monks.
They are the only two remaining cultivators of the Li family. One has been a cultivator for a long time and has less than three hundred years left to live. The other is a new cultivator who has just been promoted in the past few decades. success.
If you want to become a Nascent Soul cultivator, Li still has a way, but if you want to become a Shen Transformation cultivator, you must use a spiritual place like the sect.
How to use it? When a high-level monk has an idea for a certain sect, you can ask the golden elixir and Nascent Soul monks in the family to help. According to the unspoken rules circulated among high-level monks, if you can win the sect in the end, These monks who help only need to
If you are still alive, you can have a chance to try to advance within the occupied sect.
Jindan tries to advance to Yuanying, and Yuanying tries to advance to God. Normally, if you want to get such an opportunity, the number of monks dispatched must not be too small, and the Li family did not have a large number of fallen Jindan monks decades ago. The situation was just that the family's god-transformation monk also helped out.
With the help of the God Transformation monks, the number of golden elixirs and Nascent Souls is not important.
Using a family to transform into gods is almost gambling on the fortune of the family. Once a cultivating family loses its god-transforming monks, it will easily decline.
At this moment, the two Li gods are discussing a major matter of gambling on the fate of the family. Regardless of success or failure, the family monks will inevitably die in large numbers. However, for the older monks, there is only one chance, and there is no real chance. In a desperate situation, I don’t want to make a desperate move.
Within one or two hundred years, this god-transformation monk will definitely take action. No matter whether he succeeds or fails in the end, a large number of Li monks are destined to perish.
If successful, the family can take another step forward.
If it fails, the newly promoted young god will need to keep a low profile for nearly a thousand years and then find a chance for himself.
A few words between the two men decided the life or death of most of the monks in the family.
At the place where the Li family was promoted to the Golden Elixir, a female cultivator fainted and fell to the ground. It took a long time before she woke up, felt her current state, and said to herself: "Failed!"
The voice was lost and low, probably only she could hear it, and she stayed here for who knows how long before she walked out dejectedly.
It is not easy to advance to the golden elixir. Failure to advance is very common, but for the monks who fail, it is a very bad thing.
Unlike the situation where the whole family can know about the success of the promotion, the monks who failed the promotion only have the attention of a family foundation-building formula.
"Li Yingzi, what are your plans for the future? Will you follow a branch family to help? Or will you become the liaison monk of the family? Now that the family has a fighting elixir, or do you want to give it another try?"
Hearing this sentence, the female cultivator's dim eyes did not fluctuate much, but she knew that for a cultivator like herself who failed to advance, she had to choose one no matter what.
After some people fail to advance once, they feel that there is little hope of trying again, and they lose the courage to try again. For this kind of monk, you can go to a branch family and have no restrictions, or you can stay in the family and choose a monk to practice the secret arts of the soul and deliver news to the family at certain times. In short, it is not enough to do nothing and just stay.
In addition, it is to try to advance to the golden elixir again, but to recover, a lot of resources are needed. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to accumulate at all. The only way is to go out and continue to fight for the family. Not only is it dangerous, but can you get enough resources? , also depends on luck.
To the collateral family? She just came back from the collateral family and didn't want to go at all.
As for contacting the monks, when delivering news, one always has to be sent away. It is easy to go and hard to come back. Basically, they come in turns.
As for giving it a try, in Li Yingzi's opinion, it's just a matter of dying early and dying later.
"Give it a try!" She replied. The reason why she chose this was because she knew that as long as she came back alive for the first time, it would not be compulsory to do this kind of mission again. After all, if some monks accumulated enough resources, You can’t help but let people practice well, right?
Although she was unwilling to give in, Li Yingzi also knew that her hope of trying to advance again was slim, and the blow of failure also made her have no confidence to pass again.
After returning to her family, she concentrated on practicing and then tried to advance to the Golden Elixir. She felt that she had done well enough, but the result was this.
As for Li Qiao, she had no idea because she knew it was impossible.
The reason why I asked about the location of the opponent's cave at that time was to test the other person's mind, and secondly, I wanted to show it to the opponent after successfully advancing to the golden elixir. Now I don't have to think about anything.
After leaving here, he first spent some days recovering in his cave, and then Li Yingzi went to choose some magic and secret techniques.
Become a foundation-building monk who fights and fights in the family. Some spells no longer need to be exchanged for resources, and some are originally not open to family monks.
The secret is open to it.
For example, there are powerful secret techniques that will have an impact on oneself, and there are also some means of dying together. If the situation is really desperate, instead of being killed in vain, it is better to pull a few backers.
Li Yingzi saw many weird methods here, but they would all have a big impact on herself.
For example, if you want to control the method of refining corpses, you need to separate the soul. Foundation-building monks who have learned it will basically say goodbye to advancing to the golden elixir. After learning the golden elixir monks, they have basically said goodbye to advancing to the Nascent Soul. This is not the case for all corpse-refining techniques. , but the family’s skills are not so perfect and have flaws.
