The Zhiyang fruit is not as delicious as expected.
The taste is slightly astringent, a bit like eating persimmons, but without the core.
But before he could taste it carefully, a feeling of comfort spread directly into his soul, making him feel that the pores all over his body relaxed.
But the next moment, he felt his mind sink again, and a feeling of drunkenness suddenly invaded him.
He knew that this was because the medicinal power of Sunburn Holy Fruit had an effect on the soul, but the medicine was too strong, making it difficult for the soul to digest it for a while, and that was why he felt this way.
Therefore, Lu Li quickly condensed the true energy in his body, forcibly blocking the medicinal power of the Sunburn Fruit, and started to quickly refine and absorb it by running the Wuchen Dao Sutra.
This Sunburning Sun energy was very powerful, and just a trace of it made him feel like this. No wonder the book said that one Sunburning Sun Fruit was enough to break through the early stage of distraction to the middle stage.
However, this time it didn't make him faint like the last time he ate the Soul Milk of Creation. This gave Lu Li the opportunity to enter the Time Palace and speed up the refining.
Presumably, this should save a lot of time.
But while Lu Li was in seclusion refining the Sun-Scorching Holy Fruit, the turmoil in the outside world became more and more intense.
The Mingxin Sword Palace issued a notice to arrest the people of the Shadow Tower. Anyone who provides clues to the Shadow Tower or the heads of the Shadow Tower disciples will receive generous rewards.
It attracted countless people to take notice and look for traces of people from the Shadow Tower.
There have even been cases where someone fished in troubled waters and casually used a human head to pretend to be a disciple of the Shadow Tower.
However, after the Clear Heart Sword Palace changed its requirements and required that the Shadow Tower identity token be turned in in order to obtain the reward, this situation became less common.
In addition to Shadow Tower, a person named 'Lu Li' also successfully appeared on the Sword Palace's wanted list, causing an uproar in the entire Southern Ming Realm.
"Lu Li! Isn't he that so-called old monster with a shrinking head? Why did he offend Sword Palace?"
"Hey, brother! You didn't know this, right? I heard that the collapse of Tianjian Pavilion was inseparable from that Lu Li. He might even be the mastermind of this incident."
"No way! Isn't that guy in the stage of becoming a god? Does he have this ability?"
"Tsk! In the God Transformation stage, this is news from you eight hundred years ago, right? Let me tell you, he is a reincarnated person. He practiced Qi at three years old, built foundation at ten years old, golden elixir at 100 years old, and transformed into God at 200 years old... .Now he is only five hundred years old, and he is already a combined venerable one!"
"Here, you're fucking tricking a ghost! Where did you hear that?"
"Am I coaxing you? You can ask someone in Nanming City to see if what I say is true?"
The streets of Nanming City seemed to have returned to some of the past bustle. Some low-level monks who had disappeared for a long time reappeared in Nanming City. Among the bustling streets, these two voices were heard arguing.
At this time, a passing Jindan monk suddenly came up to him and said with a smile:
"You two, stop arguing. Your information is out of date. According to the latest news, Lu Li is not the Fusion Master at all, but the Mahayana Immortal who came from the City of the Undead!"
"Let me tell you, the person who went to Tianjian Pavilion that day was not Lu Li himself, just his apprentice. Do you know his apprentice? Tang Fei, the owner of Shadow Tower, that's it."
"Mahayana Immortality——!!!"
After hearing this, the two of them immediately broke into silence and screamed in disbelief.
"Hmph! What do you think? I advise you to keep your eyes open and stop thinking about the ill-gotten gains from the Shadow Tower. Don't die one day without knowing how."
The man looked like I had seen through everything, shook his head, and disappeared into the crowd.
I don’t know where this rumor originated, but it has become more and more outrageous, spreading wider and wider. Nowadays, no one in the Southern Ming Realm cultivation world can even tell the truth from the false.
As the party involved, Mingxin Sword Palace naturally received a lot of such rumors, and the ninth elder was so angry that he smashed the coffee table next to him with a slap.
He is really angry!
Originally, he had taken control of the overall situation and had all the practitioners in the Nanming Realm participate in the round-up operation, forcing the Shadow Tower to look like rats crossing the street.
But I don't know who is secretly spreading rumors, which makes everyone extremely taboo about this matter, and they don't dare to interfere in it anymore. Some people even secretly set things off for people from major sects in order to please Shadow Tower.
Except for the ninth elder of Mingxin Sword Palace.
The situation in Suxin Palace at this time was not much better.
When Lv Huishu and others returned to Suxin Palace, bad news one after another reached Lv Huishu's ears.
If the robbery of the alchemy room and the deaths of the two peak masters were not enough to make her concerned, the disappearance of Weiyue and the private discussions among the disciples below made her a little restless.
I don’t know when, but a sentence began to flow out of the mouths of Suxin Palace disciples, saying:
"Today, the saint's body has been taken away by the supreme elder. Jingxiu and another peak master discovered the key, so they were killed by the sect's senior officials."
At first, such words were only discussed privately by low-level disciples. Gradually, the masters at the transformation level, the peak masters at the distraction level, and the major core disciples all began to believe it.
Because that Jingyou is so abnormal.
As a result, an extremely depressing cloud began to fill the hearts of many Suxin Palace disciples. The extreme uneasiness made it difficult for them to practice normally as usual.
They were afraid that they were also the backup person to seize the body.
After all, there are many elderly elders in Suxin Palace.
Such emotions directly caused the morale of Suxin Palace to plummet. In just two or three months, there were many defections.
Helpless, Yun Shu could only choose to block all exits and no longer allow anyone to open them privately.
However, Yun Shu's actions not only failed to curb the development of the situation, but made everyone feel more and more panicked. They felt like they were lambs in captivity, always waiting to be slaughtered.
The ten core Taoist hearts are unstable!
The major peak masters are panicking!
The genius disciple tried his best to hide his clumsiness!
The entire Suxin Palace was in a bleak state.
Little did they know that all of this happened because Lu Li left a note in the courtyard when he left.
Moreover, this note recording Lu Huishu's various 'crimes' fell into the hands of Jingxiu's apprentice Ning Yu. After Ning Yu got the note, she believed the content on it to be true.
Ning Yu, who was filled with grief and anger, directly spread the news secretly, which brought such consequences to Suxin Palace.
Maybe the morale is low and the senior officials of Suxin Palace can find a way to remedy it.
But the few masters of Suxin Palace who defected from the palace when they saw that the situation was not right had laid a huge hidden danger for Suxin Palace.
Lu Huishu stood at the door of the bamboo house and said with a gloomy face: "Immediately retrieve the soul cards and go out to search. No matter what the cost, bring those traitors back to me and let one of them go. You are the only one asking!"
