"By the way, how long did it take for Junior Brother Ji to come back?" Wen Changming asked with a smile.
"The day before yesterday."
"Look, let me tell you. There are rumors that Brother Ji is back. I told you and you still don't believe it." After hearing Ji Liao's words, Wen Changming immediately said to Xu Luning in surprise. It seemed that they had just discussed it some time ago. get through this.
Xu Luning just looked at Wen Changming and smiled lightly, then turned to look at Ji Liao, "Then what happened to you here?"
"I have something to do with Grand Ancestor Taishang." Ji Liao replied.
"That's it!" Xu Luning said, wondering who Wujizi was, the existence they looked up to. It was extremely rare to meet him, let alone exchange a few words, but he could see him whenever he wanted. , it can be seen that the gap between them is no longer just a little bit, and he said with a hint of loneliness in his heart, "Then you should go quickly."
"Yeah!" Ji Liao nodded.
Wen Changming raised his hands to Ji Liao and said, "Please!"
"Farewell!" Ji Liao returned the salute and turned back to go upstairs.
Xu Luning looked at the retreating figure, knowing that this would be her last encounter with that person, and they would never have anything to do with him again in this life.
"Madam, let's hurry up and buy the second half of the exercises." Wen Changming withdrew his gaze and said to Xu Luning with a smile.
"Yes!" Xu Luning nodded, and then they both walked towards Wei Lancheng who had just left.
Ji Liao meandered all the way up, and he met many acquaintances in so many days, but without exception, there were more or less barriers between them, and they were never the same as before.
None of these people have changed, so there is only one possibility, that is, Ji Liao has changed.
Wei Lancheng had already informed him before, so the door on the second floor of Wanfa Pavilion was open, and Ji Liao could see clearly what was inside by standing at the outer door.
At this time, there was an elder who was about seventy years old and wearing a dark blue Taoist robe and was standing at the door, but he was not Zhao Mingzong, who was acquainted with Ji Liao.
"You must be Ji Liao." The elder in the foundation building stage found that he couldn't tell what kind of cultivation Ji Liao was, so he simply called him by his first name.
"Yes!" Ji Liao responded in a nonchalant manner and walked past him calmly.
There was a look of displeasure on the elder's face.
Ji Liao is a disciple of Glory, and the elders like them naturally know that, but he is an elder of Yanshui Peak of the Purple Air Sect. Even if Ji Liao is at the same level as him in the Foundation Establishment Stage, Ji Liao is still a disciple in name. , but he is one level behind him in terms of seniority.
"Ancestor is up there, go on your own." The ancient elder said coldly, then returned to the second floor and sat down cross-legged to meditate.
Ji Liao ignored him and walked straight to the third floor with his hands behind his back.
The door opened to Ji Liaodong, and the short and fat Wujizi was already sitting cross-legged in the middle of the third floor.
Ji Liao came slowly and showed his figure on the stairs. Seeing Wujizi already waiting there, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
"Excuse me, please wait here for Ji." Ji Liao came to Wujizi, cupped his hands and said with a smile.
"Haha, it doesn't matter, just come back." Wujizi chuckled.
Wujizi took a fancy to Ji Liao back then and was extremely satisfied with Ji Liao's actions. He had high hopes for him and even fought against Li Hun at the entrance to the Nirvana Realm for his sake.
Later, when he heard the news that Ji Liao died in Huangxi, Wujizi couldn't help but feel regretful, but he never thought that the boy from back then would suddenly come back.
Ji Liao sat cross-legged opposite Wujizi. Back then, Wujizi took great care of him and gave him high-level skills such as the Reversal of the Mantra Sutra for him to practice. Ji Liao still remembered this kindness in his heart.
"How is everything going after not seeing you for so many years?" Ji Liao asked as soon as he sat down.
"Same as before." Wujizi replied, but something moved in his heart. Based on Ji Liao's words, he felt that what Ji Liao said was no longer as respectful as before, as if he was speaking to someone of his own generation. "You haven't returned home for many years. What opportunities have you encountered while wandering in the outside world? What level of cultivation has you reached now?"
"I'm sorry, ancestor, I've been traveling in the outside world for many years, and I've met a lot of opportunities. Now I'm at the peak of the late Jindan stage."
"What! The peak of the late Jindan period?" Wujizi was surprised.
He is only in the late stage of Jindan, and he has been in this state for hundreds of years without moving at all. So easy
And that kid who he watched from receiving Qi to building foundation reached the late Golden Core stage in just a few decades, and was still at the peak of the late Golden Core stage. He had vaguely surpassed him in terms of realm. This speed of advancement horrified him. It was beyond his reach.
He took a deep look at Ji Liao, regained his shocked expression, breathed a sigh of relief, and said quietly, "It is a good thing to advance quickly, but don't be too striving for success. Once the state is unstable, it will not be of any use to the future cultivation path. Good thing."
After listening to Wujizi teaching him as an elder, Ji Liao was not angry and smiled softly, "Ji took note of it."
"Yeah!" Wujizi nodded with satisfaction.
He admired Ji Liao's temperament in his heart. Based on Ji Liao's current cultivation level, not only did he not show any disgust with his teachings, but he looked like he accepted the teachings with an open mind. From this, it can be seen that this child's character is far beyond ordinary people.
Thinking of this, Wujizi said again, "You came back just in time. Now our Purple Air Sect and the Blood Soul Sect are about to have a battle. With you taking action, our sect will definitely win."
"Ji came here precisely for this matter. I wonder if our ancestors know what the Blood Soul Sect has to rely on to dare to issue an order to exterminate our Purple Air Sect?"
"This...I don't know about this either." Wujizi hesitated.
The two of them knew well that the number of disciples of the Purple Air Sect was obviously smaller than that of the Blood Soul Sect, but the strength of the disciples of the Purple Air Sect was much higher than that of the Purple Air Sect, and the Golden Core Stage monks had Four people, one more than the Blood Soul Sect, whose strength has long surpassed the Blood Soul Sect.
For thousands of years, the two sects have been at odds with each other, but the Purple Soul Sect has always suppressed the Blood Soul Sect. The Blood Soul Sect did not dare to say anything, but no one knows why the Blood Soul Sect suddenly became violent and dared to attack Zi Qi Sect. Zong issued an order to exterminate his family and fight to the death.
"There is a huge difference in strength between the two sects. If the Blood Soul Sect didn't have something to rely on and wouldn't dare to do this, could it be that the Blood Soul Sect invited some seniors?" Ji Liao asked with a frown.
"No!" Wujizi replied decisively, and then continued, "As long as the Blood Soul Sect is still in our Shendong territory, once the order to exterminate the sect is issued, even if they have a hundred courages, they will not dare to ask other people for help."
"This is strange." Ji Liao muttered to himself.
"No matter what, if the five of us join forces, even if the other party has a senior in the Nascent Soul stage, there is no way he can get any favors from the five of us."
Ji Liao's eyes moved when he heard this, and he stopped thinking about it, "By the way, Patriarch Tongtian is in the cave now?"
Ji Liao thought of Taoist Tongtian, the golden elixir monk who had an encounter with his ancestor. When Taoist Tongtian learned that he was Ji Yunxiao's descendant, he really took good care of him.
"Big Brother is no longer here. He is now directing the disciples to form formations at the Cliff of Extinction!" Wujizi said with a smile.
"That's it." Ji Liao nodded.
The cliff of extinction is a desolate place, with no human habitation for hundreds of miles around. The two sects chose to have a decisive battle there so that no one else could be affected. Ji Liao already knew this. Since the war was to be fought openly and honestly, it was indispensable to organize troops. .
"If you have anything else to say, just tell it." Wujizi saw that Ji Liao still had something to say, so he directly asked again.
"But there is one thing!" Ji Liao replied, and then told Zhang Yunyao about choosing a technique, "Now I have a disciple in the Purple Qi Sect, and I don't have a very good Qi-taking technique in my hand. I remember that there were several high-level exercises in the sect, and I wonder if my ancestor could choose one for me and make a copy."
"This..." Wujizi hesitated.
High-level skills are not a trivial matter. They can be said to be the foundation of their Purple Air Sect's Taoist inheritance. For more than ten thousand years since the sect was founded, their Purple Air Sect has only accumulated a few of them. They can take them out so easily, and Wujizi can get them. Think about it.
Ji Liao was not in a hurry and waited quietly for Wujizi's reply.
Wujizi looked at the young man in front of him, thinking in his heart. After a long time, he tentatively asked, "I wonder if you will stay in the sect in the future?"
Ji Liao had expected this and was not surprised.
"No, I have established a sect in another place, and I am just returning to the sect to meet some old friends."
After hearing Ji Liao's answer, Wujizi wanted to refuse immediately, but then he thought about it. They had already established sects elsewhere, so there was no reason to fight for the Purple Air Sect.
Although the Purple Air Sect had cultivated him before, he had already left the sect and was said to be a member of two sects. Even if he acted for the sect because of his past friendship, he would not try his best.
Now on the eve of the sect war, with the help of this former disciple of the Purple Air Sect, this is not a foul. With such a big help, the Purple Air Sect's chances of winning are much greater. After careful calculation, compared to this, one This high-level skill is nothing.
"Since Fellow Taoist wants it, we happen to have one here."
After saying that, Wujizi pointed a little in front of him, and a golden light pillar immediately rose from the ground, and then several jade slips slowly appeared.
Wujizi reached out and grabbed one of the jade slips and handed it to Ji Liao, "Fellow Taoist, take a look. Are you satisfied with this technique?"
