Chapter 430: Young and Promising

"Qingwei Sect?"

In the main hall.

The Prince of Wei, Zhu Gan, narrowed his eyes, his face gloomy.

"Yes, it is rumored that the Qingwei Sect has obtained a top-grade spirit stone."

Li Rui said.

He did not give his own judgment, but only stated the information he heard.

Zhu Gan is arrogant; if he added too much drama, it would only lead to dissatisfaction.

He naturally wouldn't do something unnecessary.

"Alright, I know."

Sure enough, the Prince of Wei, Zhu Gan, just waved his hand after hearing the news, and even added: "You did well."

"Your Highness, then I will take my leave."

After saying that.

Li Rui turned and left.

Walking out of Zhu Gan's mansion, he saw Yuan Xiong already standing at the door.

"Brother Li, you said the Qingwei Sect has a top-grade spirit stone?"

He had heard the news and came looking.

Li Rui: "It's all rumors, currently it cannot be confirmed."

He naturally knew that the top-grade spirit stone was in the hands of the Qingwei Sect, but the reason he told Zhu Gan today was because this matter had spread among the demonic cultivators for some unknown reason.

So he took a step ahead and informed Zhu Gan.

In this way, there was no risk, and he could fulfill his duty.

As for what Zhu Gan would do afterward, that was not something he should worry about.

Yuan Xiong: "Those bull-nosed Daoists of the Qingwei Sect hide deep; they actually didn't even let us know about the top-grade spirit stone."

Li Rui nodded.

Regarding this, he also deeply agreed.

If it weren't for the fact that there were experts among the demonic cultivators, they would have almost been deceived by the Qingwei Sect.

Yuan Xiong: "Brother Li, what should we do next?"

Although the spirit mine is decided by the Fifth Prince, specifically down here, neither he nor Li Rui belongs to the Fifth Prince's faction.

Yuan Xiong cares more about himself, or rather, the interests of the Annan Marquis Prefecture.

Li Rui pondered:

"Let's wait and see for now."

Upon hearing this.

Yuan Xiong nodded: "Let's do as Brother says."

Ten Thousand Mountains spirit mine, located in the eastern Qingwei Sect mining area.

In a large hall.

Daoist Daoist Xuan Yu sat at the highest point, expressionless.

The several Elders below were full of anger.

"Damn it, who is spreading the rumors, actually daring to slander my Qingwei Sect for taking a top-grade spirit stone!"

"Must find this person and refine them into a puppet!"

One by one, they were filled with righteous indignation.

These days.

Because of this matter, several disciples escorting spirit stones for the Qingwei Sect had died, all killed by those demonic cultivators coveting the top-grade spirit stone.

If it were a normal day.

Those demonic cultivators would fear the Qingwei Sect's strength and naturally wouldn't dare to make a move.

But under the temptation of a top-grade spirit stone, it was different.

Those demonic cultivators are all wolves; once they see meat, they will rush up and bite a few times regardless of their lives.

Just as a group of Elders were arguing.

Daoist Master Xuan Cheng, who was sitting in a corner, closed his eyes and meditated, as if this matter had nothing to do with him at all.

Wronged?

Not wronged in the slightest.

Only a very few people in the Qingwei Sect know about the existence of the top-grade spirit stone.

In this hall, there are only him and Daoist Daoist Xuan Yu.

If he weren't proficient in formations, even he might not have known.

Not bad.

The Qingwei Sect originates from the Divine Xuan Sect of the cultivation world, so naturally, they have methods to find spirit mines.

Not only that.

The Qingwei Sect had long determined that the spirit mine in the east had a top-grade spirit stone, which is why they were willing to give up most of the spirit mine, but insisted on the spirit mine in the east.

It was for the top-grade spirit stone.

It's just that the mining of the top-grade spirit stone is very complex.

It cannot damage the external spirit stones.

Otherwise, the loss would be extremely heavy.

Originally, Master Xuan Cheng had set up a great formation to shield it from outside spying, just waiting for the time to come to obtain the top-grade spirit stone, but didn't expect the news to leak.

Putting the Qingwei Sect in an awkward position.

After some arguing.

Daoist Daoist Xuan Yu then slowly opened his eyes and said: "The pure are self-pure; fellow junior brothers, there is no need to discuss this matter further. Those demonic cultivators are rampant, and we still need to assist fellow Daoist Master Xuan Cheng in strengthening the formation to prevent accidents."

"Brother Daoist Xuan Yu is right."

Everyone heard this and echoed.

"Alright, fellow junior brothers, all go."

When everyone stood up and prepared to leave, Daoist Xuan Yu called out: "Elder Master Xuan Cheng, you stay for a while."

Master Xuan Cheng stopped and looked at Daoist Daoist Xuan Yu.

"Fellow Daoist Daoist Xuan Yu."

Master Xuan Cheng smiled slightly.

Daoist Daoist Xuan Yu said: "Elder Master Xuan Cheng, things have changed, change the formation a bit; we need to speed up."

The top-grade spirit stone put no small pressure on Daoist Xuan Yu.

Daoist Daoist Xuan Yu is trying to dig out the top-grade spirit stone as soon as possible to avoid long nights and many dreams.

Daoist Master Xuan Cheng pondered:

"There is a method, but the loss is relatively large."

Daoist Daoist Xuan Yu's gaze was firm: "Then I will trouble Elder Master Xuan Cheng."

"It is my duty."

Watching Master Xuan Cheng leave, Daoist Xuan Yu's gaze became even gloomier.

"You mean Daoist Daoist Xuan Yu heard about that matter, just let them strengthen the spirit mine, and there was no other action."

Yuan Xiong said.

Li Rui: "Let's wait and see for now."

Yuan Xiong nodded.

The Qingwei Sect is a large immortal sect with an upper-realm background and cannot be easily provoked.

"That Fifth Prince of ours seems very hot-hearted; I heard he has already sent people to investigate."

Li Rui chuckled: "Human nature."

Ministers need to make contributions.

Princes are the same.

Although the Yu Kingdom has no clan rules that must establish the eldest son of the legal wife, the assessment of princes is extremely strict.

Even from the Taizu Emperor, many rules were established.

And added to by later emperors.

Now it is extremely perfect.

These assessments will also serve as an important basis for establishing the Crown Prince.

If Zhu Gan can send the world's first top-grade spirit stone to the imperial palace, not only will the Lord of the Dragon Court be overjoyed, but he can also add a heavy stroke to the records of those civil officials.

How can he not be tempted?

Yuan Xiong: "Often heard that this Fifth Prince is fond of great achievements; I only hope he doesn't cause any trouble."

Military background.

He dislikes Zhu Gan's personality the most.

A prince who is fond of great achievements, in other words, is cold-blooded and doesn't take the lives of his soldiers seriously.

If such a person is smart, he can be called capable.

His future will also be very good.

But it is piled up with the corpses of countless people.

If this were placed on an official, it would be a cruel official.

Li Rui doesn't intend to discuss a prince, he said: "Brother Yuan, I need some materials, trouble you to help me look."

Having said that.

He handed a note to Yuan Xiong.

Yuan Xiong took it and looked; they were all materials for drawing talismans.

And the rank is not low.

Li Rui: "I heard there is a great talisman master in the Marquis Prefecture, can Brother Yuan help me ask?"

"Mr. Zhang, right? Okay, I'll ask."

Yuan Xiong agreed without thinking.

Afterward, the two chatted for a while.

Li Rui then returned to the residence.

He threw out two more talismans to reinforce the Small Five Elements Formation.

Talisman Dao is not separated.

Li Rui combined the two, and the effect was extremely good.

It was precisely this hand that allowed him to barely resist the erosion of the Evil Puppet Formation.

After doing all this.

He returned to the room.

Cultivated the Wan Gu Chang Qing Art as usual, and then crawled into the quilt and fell into a deep sleep.

Woke up again.

He had come to the white jade steps.

At this time, he was already familiar with the road, no longer as embarrassed as before, and easily stepped on the steps, coming to the Questioning Heart Pass.

After fighting with the fairy, he appeared in the Evil Ghost Dao again.

Countless evil ghosts rushed toward Li Rui, and the Thousand Soul Banner in his hand expanded in the wind, refining large swaths of evil ghosts.

Originally, Li Rui could have passed the Evil Ghost Dao long ago.

But to ensure he could successfully get the reward and incidentally strengthen the Thousand Soul Banner, he had never left.

Countless evil ghosts almost completely shrouded Li Rui.

The Thousand Soul Banner's power was fully displayed.

With a casual sweep, dozens of evil ghosts were wiped out.

If seen by outside cultivators, they would definitely feel that Li Rui at this moment is even more like a demonic cultivator than the legendary demonic cultivators.

Watching Li Rui kill all sides with the Thousand Soul Banner.

Compared to the old demons in the cultivation world, he is not inferior at all.

The evil ghosts seemed endless.

Li Rui didn't know how many evil ghosts he had killed, but the evil ghosts still surged out from the mountains and plains like a tide.

But just when Li Rui was killing with great enjoyment.

The evil ghosts all turned into dust and dissipated without a trace.

Afterward.

The scene around him also changed instantly.

The barren ground disappeared, turning into white jade ground, with countless palaces.

He returned to the Taixu Dao Field again.

At the same time.

A point of spiritual light appeared between his eyebrows.

Another Great Dao Fragment!

The corners of Li Rui's mouth lifted.

Sure enough.

Perfect clearance again.

Perfectly passed the pass again.

Inside the dantian.

The Dao Fetus that absorbed the Great Dao Fragment became even more ethereal and dusty, as if standing alone in the world.

The whole person is like an immortal, not touching dust.

More and more extraordinary.

Li Rui then raised his head and strode into the Taixu Dao Field.

He still walked very slowly.

The white jade square is huge, and he walked for a full two quarters of an hour, but only reached the edge of the Taixu Dao Field.

And here, a huge stone tablet stood.

On it was written the rules of the Taixu Dao Field.

"Those who enter the Dao Field are all seekers of truth; they should climb the steps and knock on the door, ask the heart and clarify the nature... no fighting or killing."

Looking and looking.

Li Rui's expression became strange.

Only because he saw an age limit on the stone tablet.

That's right.

There are generally two types of people who can enter the Taixu Dao Field: one is the Immortal Monarch who has achieved the Dao, and the other is the talented genius.

Like the Yu Kingdom.

The cultivation world also doesn't like cultivators who are too old.

Generally, it represents not having too much potential.

After all, having lived for so long, if there were really potential, it should have been realized long ago.

'Mysterious Realm under forty years old.'

Seeing this requirement.

Li Rui was depressed.

He didn't expect that even after cultivating immortality, he could still be age-discriminated.

However, it is reasonable; the Taixu Dao Field is the place where all immortals realize the Dao, how can those who enter be ordinary?

Age is just a basic condition.

Still the same saying, the Taixu Dao Field does not lack geniuses.

'Forget it.'

Li Rui sighed.

Of course, he didn't continue to struggle; this is the rule of the Taixu Dao Field, how can he, a Tongxuan, break it?

'At worst, I'll come back to explore when I become an Immortal Monarch.'

He lacks nothing but patience.

Just when Li Rui intended to leave.

A divine light shot from the stone tablet, shrouding Li Rui.

Seeing this scene.

Li Rui revealed surprise.

Because according to the inscription, only those who meet the conditions can trigger the divine light.

'I am also young and promising?'
