There are ten places in Yaowang Valley known as forbidden areas.
The first is the forbidden area of ancestral mountain where the valley owners of past dynasties are buried.
The remaining nine places are the places where one to nine old Qing monks have the title of chief. Such places cannot be visited by ordinary people without special permission.
Otherwise, if you offend these venerables, you will be in serious trouble.
In fact, there are fifteen elders in Yaowang Valley, but only nine of them have titles. The rest are collectively called Elders.
As for the owner of the valley, he is relatively easy-going because he has to take care of the entire Yaowang Valley. Although the place he lives in is not accessible to ordinary people, it is not called a forbidden area.
What Lu Li was going to today was the Ninth Forbidden Land where the Ninth Elder was located.
Although the Ninth Forbidden Land is known as a forbidden land, it is not very special from the outside. It is complicated and crisscrossed by ups and downs of mountains.
The misty purple mist condensed into a ring of walls, enclosing mountains thousands of miles in radius.
If you want to enter, you can only enter through an ancient stone gate south of the Purple Mist Wall.
There is an old guard next to the stone gate, sitting cross-legged on a square circular stone platform on the right, motionless.
His cultivation level is not very high, he is only in the early stage of Nascent Soul.
In fact, such people are not disciples of the inner sect. They are just lucky enough to be appreciated by some people. They were asked to work as handymen in the inner sect, and then they were able to reach such a level by luck.
Going up further, it would be a bit difficult. Although Yaowang Valley was very rich, it had many disciples, so it was naturally impossible to waste resources on these people with average talents.
What's more, breaking through to become a god is not just a matter of elixir resources, it's also a matter of xinxing.
Even though Lu Li seemed to have easily defeated the Transformation God at the beginning, he didn't know that just at the level of Soul Transformation's state of mind, he blocked countless people from the door and wasted the Soul Transformation Pill and the Palace-Forging Pill.
Otherwise, with Yaowang Valley’s ability, I don’t know how many more Nascent Souls and God Transformation masters would be needed.
The old man from Xinlou and Lu Li landed outside the south gate of the Ninth Forbidden Land. The old man guarding the gate stood up and saluted the people around Lu Li, and then the old man from Xinlou took his leave.
Lu Li walked into the huge stone gate together with the Nascent Soul Stage old man, and quickly shuttled along a long bluestone road.
The old man at the Nascent Soul stage told Lu Li that the height should not exceed one foot in the air. Lu Li thought it was because of some restrictions above, but the old man said it was out of respect.
This left Lu Li secretly speechless, thinking that most sects had too many rules and were not free and easy at all.
A place that can be reached in an instant has to be driven around for half an hour.
However, after thinking about it, Lu Li still understood the principle of doing as the Romans do in the countryside. He smiled and said: "It should be." Then he kept silent and accompanied the old Yuanying around the mountains.
Finally, after walking for a while, the two came to the mouth of a valley.
In the valley, many huge old pear trees are planted in an orderly manner.
It's October, late autumn.
The season should be bleak, but the flowers and leaves are in full bloom and the fragrance is pleasant.
Among the old pear bushes and among the winding bluestone paths, there are many pavilions hidden. The one in the center of the valley is the largest, with a radius of more than ten feet and exquisite carvings.
There is an old man in green robes with sunken cheeks and protruding forehead bones. He is sitting next to the chessboard on the tea table in the center of the pavilion, playing chess by himself, with a look of contemplation on his face.
At this time, two footsteps suddenly came from the distance, interrupting the old man's thoughts.
He shook his head, slowly placed the white piece in his hand on the edge of the chessboard, and looked at the corner of the path on the right.
Two figures immediately disappeared into the old man's sight. The Nascent Soul Stage old man suddenly stopped in his tracks, whispered a few words to the young man beside him, and then turned around and left in silence.
Lu Li walked slowly to the entrance of the pavilion, bowed slightly and clasped his fists: "Young man, Lu Li, I have met Senior Shu."
This man had a very distinctive appearance, with prominent forehead bones. Even after many years, Lu Li could recognize him at a glance. This man was none other than Elder Shu Heng from the Wangyou auction.
Shu Heng smiled and said, "Come and sit."
Lu Li straightened up, walked to the tea table and sat down: "I apologize for disturbing you, senior."
Shu Heng looked Lu Li up and down, and was secretly surprised: "It is said that people will look at each other with admiration after three days of separation. Your change is too big. In less than forty years, you came directly from the Nascent Soul Realm. The middle stage of transformation into a god really surprised me.”
Lu Li said with a smile: "Senior, you're just kidding me. He's only in the middle stage of becoming a god. He can't get into the eyes of senior."
"You kid, what are you doing with such humility? Are you worried that I will arrest you and fail to study you?" Shu Heng joked.
"Hehe, it would be a lie to say that I'm not afraid. However, the moment I entered the Medicine King Valley, all I saw were kind and straightforward people. I believe that this is also the case for Senior Shu." Lu Li put on a tall hat without any courtesy. It was pinned on the head of Yaowang Valley.
Shu Heng was stunned for a moment, then said with a dumb smile: "You are quite good at talking, don't worry. Although I am not a warm-hearted person, I don't bother to bully a junior."
Then he added: "Tell me, why did you come to me so early? I remember that there are still a full 150 or 60 years before the time we agreed on, right?"
Hearing this, Lu Li hesitated with his eyes slightly lowered: "To be honest, senior, I heard that almost all the Yin Shen Dan in the casual cultivator community of Dongling Continent comes from Yaowang Valley. I actually want to come here this time." Buy some Yin Shen Dan."
"Buy Yin Shen Dan?"
Shu Heng frowned, looking embarrassed.
"What's wrong? Can't you?"
Lu Li couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart when he saw this.
He now has no shortage of spiritual stones, but the spiritual stones can no longer directly improve his cultivation. If they cannot be converted into useful things, then the spiritual stones on his body will not be much different from stones.
"Hey! You came at the wrong time. More than thirty years ago, someone came to Yaowang Valley and bought a large amount of Yin Shen Pills. We in Yaowang Valley have also been living in poverty these years. Now we have finally recovered a little bit of vitality and stored up After buying some Yin Shen Dan, I'm afraid...the Valley Master won't agree to sell this pill to outsiders in a short time." Shu Heng sighed and said helplessly.
"Someone bought a large amount of Yin Shen Dan?" Lu Li looked shocked, thinking how big this amount was, and it actually made Yaowang Valley itself suffer from poverty for more than thirty years!
"Well, that person's identity seems to be unusual, and he went directly to the Valley Master. At the elders' meeting, the Valley Master also tried his best to put in a good word for him. In the end, he overcame everyone's opinions and directly decided to sell 90% of the Yin Shen Pills in the warehouse. Got that person..."
"So that's it. It seems that this junior came at the wrong time." After hearing this, Lu Li couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
"Hey, yes."
Shu Heng sighed softly and tapped his fingers on the table with a thoughtful look on his face.
After pondering for a moment, Shu Heng suddenly raised his eyelids and said: "I want to ask, how many Yin Shen pills are you planning to buy this time..."
