Wow, wow!
The waves rolled gently, washing back and forth against a bay east of Qionghua Island.
On the huge reef, a green and yellow bird poked its head and stared at the colorful shells pushed onto the beach by the waves, seeming to be hesitating which one to start with.
But at this moment, the green and yellow bird seemed to have noticed something terrible. The hair on its neck stood up, and then it flapped its wings and flew away without hesitation.
Snap!
As soon as the green and yellow bird flew out, a tall and thin man in green robe landed on the rock where the bird had stayed.
It was Xiao Ming, the old monster from Yinming who followed Lu Li.
But what annoyed him was that just because of the short delay in seizing Xu Lang's clothes, Lu Li ran away without a trace. He followed him all the way without finding any trace.
This made him wonder if he was pursuing the wrong direction.
Xiao Ming glanced around with an ugly expression. After making sure that Lu Li was not around, he sat down cross-legged, took out a storage ring and looked at it carefully.
"Trash! Trash!"
When he saw a pile of useless things in the storage ring, Xiao Ming was even more angry and cursed. He threw the storage ring to the beach in the distance and sat on the rocks to get sulky.
When he thought about all the resources he had accumulated for hundreds of years being taken away by Lu Li, he felt like vomiting blood.
A moment later, Xiao Ming let out another deep breath, flew to the beach in a flash, picked up the storage ring he had just discarded, and took out a lot of low-grade spiritual stones from it and quickly absorbed it.
It is impossible to use low-grade spiritual stones to improve cultivation, but it is still possible to use them to restore true energy.
However, there were not many low-grade spiritual stones in Xu Lang's body. It didn't take long for Xiao Ming to absorb all of them, and the true energy in his body did not recover much. He couldn't help but feel annoyed, and shouted to the sky:
"Young man named Lu, when I catch you, I will definitely peel off your skin, twitch your mind and refine your soul, so that you will never be reincarnated!!!"
After venting his anger, Xiao Ming rose into the air with a gloomy face and flew back towards the way he came.
Xiao Ming flew all the way, not forgetting to use the power of his soul to search everywhere, but unfortunately, after flying thousands of miles, there was still no trace of Lu Li.
What Xiao Ming didn't know was that Lu Li was hiding in a white cloud a hundred miles north of him, terrified.
It wasn't until Xiao Ming left that Lu Li heaved a sigh of relief.
After waiting for another half an hour, Lu Li felt that Xiao Ming had really gone far, so he drove the color change and quickly flew towards Qionghua Island. However, he still buried his body firmly in the clouds, not even turning his head. If you dare to show it, you must be extremely careful.
What I have to say is that this color-changing cloud is really a rare treasure. Even people like Old Monster Yin Ming didn't find anything unusual, allowing Lu Li to easily get away with it.
Not long after, Lu Li approached the center of Qionghua Island. He carefully opened a hole in the changing clouds and looked down, and found that there was a very large ancient city in the center of the island.
The city is distributed in a circle, but in the center of the bustling city is a huge jungle. In the center of the jungle, there is a solitary peak shrouded in fairy mist, reaching into the sky.
When approaching the city, Lu Li put away the color-changing cloud and flew lightly onto a hill outside the city.
After a few ups and downs, they arrived at the east city gate.
"Qionghua City."
Looking at the three big characters on the ancient city wall, Lu Li couldn't help being surprised. He didn't expect that he would accidentally hit a level 4 island.
"On the fourth-level island, there won't be any old monsters who transform into gods, right?"
Lu Li's eyes flickered, he muttered something secretly, and walked towards the city gate.
Unsurprisingly, there is indeed a city fee here, and it is not low. It costs fifty low-grade spiritual stones at a time.
However, according to the guard, these fifty spirit stones are not expensive, because as long as you enter the city, you can be protected by the Qionghua Sect. No one can kill anyone in the city, otherwise, they will be hunted to death by the Qionghua Sect.
Lu Li didn't know how powerful this Qionghua Cult was, but he was happy to hear what the other party said. Anyway, it was only a mere fifty low-grade spiritual stones.
Arriving at the city, Lu Li looked around, preparing to find a place to settle down first.
But before he had gone far, a lean young man ran towards him and said with enthusiasm, "Senior, is this your first time in Qionghua City?"
Lu Li glanced around suspiciously, "Are you talking to me?"
"Ah, yes, I see senior looking around with hesitation on his face. It must be his first time here, right?" The young man stared at Lu Li expectantly and said.
Hearing what the young man said, Lu Li couldn't help but frown and said slightly coldly, "What's the matter with you?"
"Well, it's like this. Senior, Jade Qiong Peak is holding an event recently. All caves are discounted at 30% off. Do you want to know about it?" The young man said, taking out a small card filled with words and handing it to Lu Li.
Lu Li was stunned for a moment, then took the small card, took a look at it, and asked, "Who is this Jade Qiong Peak?"
What is written on the small card is the level and corresponding price of the Yu Qiongfeng Cave. The highest level of the cave is nine, and the lowest level is one. The ninth level is the highest price, and it requires 10,000 mid-grade spiritual stones a month.
The first-level cave is the lowest, requiring only one hundred lower-grade spiritual stones a month.
"Yu Qiongfeng, senior, please go this way."
Hearing this, the young man greeted Lu Li and walked forward. When he came to a slightly open place, he pointed to the peak in the center and said:
"That's it. There is the spirit gathering array arranged by our Qionghua Sect. The spiritual energy is quite rich. It is said that the purity of the spiritual energy in the ninth-level cave is comparable to that of high-grade spiritual stones. Senior, do you want to try it?"
Spirit gathering array?
Is the purity comparable to top-grade spiritual stones?
Lu Li stared in the direction of Yu Qiong Peak with a surprised look on his face, thinking, "If this is really the case, ten thousand mid-grade spiritual stones a month is not a loss at all."
You know, even if he is refining high-grade spiritual stones, with the help of the Time Palace, he can refine more than 7,000 of them. This is not just a loss, but a huge profit.
Thinking of this, Lu Li decided to check whether it was true or not first.
While walking, Lu Li looked at the young man who was following suit and asked casually, "Are you from the Qionghua Sect?"
The young man was stunned for a moment, then laughed dryly and said, "It's just a name, not a real disciple of Qionghua."
"Oh? How do you say this?"
"Senior, you don't know. In the Qionghua Sect, only those with wood spiritual roots, and at least middle-grade spiritual roots, can become official disciples. Juniors only have low-grade spiritual roots. Unless they break through the golden elixir one day, they will remain as handymen for the rest of their lives."
"..."
While chatting, the two found a carriage and soon arrived at the entrance of a tower built against the mountain to the east of Yuqiong Peak.
When Lu Li looked inside, he realized that it was quite spacious inside, with counters arranged in a circle. At this time, many people were standing in front of the counter asking questions, which seemed a bit noisy...
The young man glanced at a vacant spot to the west, respectfully extended his hand to Lu Li and said, "Senior, please come this way."
