Chapter 142: Rushing to Cold Star Valley [Two Chapters in One, Please Subscribe]

"Eh!" Lu Ye and the others were all stunned.

Then soon, Lu Ye and his wife and Lu Zhen hurriedly said, "You eat, you eat, we don't need to."

Just kidding, that's spirit rice porridge! Miss broke through to become a fourth-layer Qi Refining cultivator, and she only received five catties from the family. Miss herself chews and swallows it slowly, one mouthful at a time; where would it be their turn, as mere martial artists, to eat it!

"How can that be! Ziying, you take some more spirit rice for Old Lu, let him go cook some more, let them also taste it and improve their constitution," Xia Daoming smiled.

Lu Zhen was Lu Ziying's true attendant, a confidant.

The flying bird magic treasure carried four injured Qi Refining cultivators.

Xia Daoming saw this but curled his lip in disapproval.

The gap between on the bed and off the bed is getting bigger and bigger; how to restore the husband's authority!

Speaking of which, Junior Xu Shixiong is still too young and doesn't understand the bitterness of middle-aged men. He should have let me improve first in private, and then give Huiyun elixirs!

"Jin Er, you come here." Seeing his son walk out, Lu Ye and his wife looked at each other and called out in unison.

This trip is dangerous. Even if Lu Ziying has a high possibility of falling, it can be said that it is exactly when she needs people.

That night, Xia Daoming stayed at Lingyun Hut at Seeking Immortal Cliff.

Moreover, the Yan Clan's strength is not weak, and they have the support of the Foundation Establishment family, the Xie Clan, behind them. Unless Xia Daoming's brain has been flooded with water, he would not stick his head out to attract the attention of Foundation Establishment cultivators.

——

The next day, the sky was just beginning to brighten.

After a while, Lu Yunjin followed Lu Zhen out, drooling.

Lu Yunjin didn't understand, but still obediently knelt down.

"What is the cultivation base of the two clan elders Lu Renwei and Lu Sanxia, and what is the cultivation base of the clan elder who is garrisoning Cold Star Valley?" Xia Daoming asked.

"Clan Elder Lu Renwei is at the ninth layer of Qi Refining, very brave and good at fighting. It is said that he is the number one powerhouse under the Clan Head. Clan Elder Lu Sanxia is at the eighth layer of Qi Refining, and the clan elder garrisoning Cold Star Valley is named Lu Weijin, at the ninth layer of Qi Refining," Lu Ziying replied.

"Like!"

"That's not right, Aunt's husband, you broke through, so your spirit, energy, and spirit should have become powerful. But I see your complexion is not right, and the dark circles under your eyes are bigger. Could it be that you didn't sleep well again last night? Oh, I understand, you must have been greatly stimulated by seeing yourself break through, so you couldn't sleep."

The couple stayed awake all night again.

He then picked the three mature Transforming Dragon Fruits and brought them back. Now they are all in his storage bag.

Some of the mine entrances were chiseled later, and some seemed to be natural.

This day, Xia Daoming saw a flying bird magic treasure flapping its wings, swaying, as if it were unable to bear the burden, and landed on Seeking Immortal Cliff.

Last night you broke through, and as your wife, she still maintained her state of mind, not being stimulated. Today, I see her spirit, energy, and spirit seem even stronger than yesterday!"

Thinking this, Xia Daoming specifically learned some information about the Lu Clan and the Yan Clan from Lu Ziying.

Lu Huiyun's "pretty face" flew red.

Lu Ye looked at Xia Daoming with even more resentment upon hearing this.

Around these stone houses, some formation flags were inserted, and some Qi Refining cultivators and Great Martial Masters were patrolling and monitoring every move on the opposite mountain ridge.

For example, mid-stage Qi Refining cultivators, if they have suitable magic treasures in their hands, can kill enemies five or six zhang, or even seven zhang away, and ninth-layer Qi Refining cultivators are even further.

"Really?" Lu Ye became excited instantly, sweeping away the resentment just now. His fat hand was raised and he wanted to hook Xia Daoming's shoulder, but soon retracted it.

Lu Ye thought he was seventh-rank, so he should be able to hold on.

Perhaps if Cloud-Treading Black stays here and absorbs the immortal spiritual energy day and night, it can really grow into a spirit beast.

Seeing Lu Zhen take the spirit rice to cook, Lu Yunjin immediately slipped down from Xia Daoming's arms, drooling, and followed Lu Zhen's butt straight to the kitchen.

"What did the Clan Head and the clan elders say?" Xia Daoming asked in a deep voice.

Martial Arts Grandmasters are different. They kill by turning their internal energy into form; they don't need to mobilize the power of heaven and earth through incantations and magic formulas. Their attack speed is fast, and their body movement speed is also fast.

And you still give her elixirs to eat!

"However, Xu Shixiong doesn't need to worry. The gap between you and your wife is only temporary. After going to Cold Star Valley, I will try my best to supplement you, and teach you cultivation when there is nothing to do, striving to let you become an eighth-rank Great Wu Shi one day earlier, and then strive to become a Martial Arts Grandmaster!" Xia Daoming comforted him.

After Xia Daoming's questioning, he felt much more confident in his heart.

Martial arts change in a thousand ways, but all changes have the same origin.

A Great Grandmaster-level figure personally and carefully pointing out the sect's techniques—that's amazing!

"However, this is best. We are all small figures. Generally, those who target us are at most fourth or fifth-layer Qi Refining cultivators. At that time, Junior Uncle will suddenly rise up, and there will be opportunities to ambush and kill, giving us more chances to save our lives," Lu Ziying said.

The quantity is large, filling the valley.

Having followed Miss for so many years, he had only eaten half a bowl of spirit rice porridge. That was a true taste, and he still has an endless aftertaste to this day.

Also, the combat effectiveness of Qi Refining cultivators is greatly influenced by the grade and power of the magic treasures in their hands. If a fifth or sixth-layer Qi Refining cultivator has a high-tier magic treasure, it is possible to kill eighth or ninth-layer Qi Refining cultivators across levels.

"What's wrong with Aunt's husband? Didn't sleep well last night? That shouldn't be, he even drank a bowl of spirit rice porridge last night!" Lu Ziying looked at Lu Ye, who was returning to the room silently with a pair of dark circles, and asked curiously.

On the mountain ridge opposite the valley, it is the same.

Now that his status is different, and he has just participated in the family meeting, the amount of information he knows is much more than before.

Under the guidance of the two clan elders, the group walked from the ground, and it only took about an hour to reach Cold Star Valley.

Having become an eighth-rank Great Wu Shi, Lu Huiyun's spirit and physical strength were surging, and she touched Lu Ye's bed in the middle of the night.

"Daoming, it was your Sister-in-law and your Xu Shixiong who delayed you. If it weren't for us, you wouldn't be in such a dangerous situation!" Lu Huiyun also quickly thought of this problem, looking guilty and self-blaming.

"Does Xu Shixiong not want to become a Martial Arts Grandmaster?" Xia Daoming looked at Lu Ye curiously.

As a result, Lu Zhengqin found that not only did Lu Ye break through to become a seventh-rank Great Wu Shi, but Lu Huiyun actually also broke through, becoming an eighth-rank Great Wu Shi.

This matter is not easy to talk about.

In this way, even if Xia Daoming is a ninth-rank Martial Arts Grandmaster, the danger level is rising sharply.

"The family wants me to take people to follow the two clan elders Lu Renwei and Lu Sanxia to Cold Star Valley to garrison in two days."

Of course, seventh-layer Qi Refining cultivators have keen sensing of changes in the surrounding aura and can perform spells quickly. Even if a ninth-rank Grandmaster ambushes, it is difficult to successfully kill him.

On the other side, Lu Huiyun, who was already at the peak of the seventh-rank realm, borrowed the remaining power of the Phoenix-Crying Pill and the nourishment of the spirit rice porridge, finally broke through the bottleneck that night and became an eighth-rank Great Wu Shi.

Qi Refining cultivators can supplement part of their true Qi and magic power consumption by using spirit stones while fighting, but Martial Arts Grandmasters find it difficult to supplement during battle.

During the day, Lu Ye had a full harvest, and that night he took the second two-hundred-year-old Phoenix-Crying Pill.

However, what truly made Xia Daoming feel amazed was the many mine entrances above Cold Star Valley.

Having received too much favor from Xia Daoming, now in private, Lu Ziying began to address Xia Daoming as Junior Uncle according to Lu Ye's seniority to show respect.

"I guess it's because you saw your aunt's strength break through, and you were stimulated last night!" Xia Daoming blurted out.

The next day, Xia Daoming, who had slept beautifully, saw Lu Huiyun in high spirits and with a ruddy face, and immediately congratulated her.

This godson is ruthless! He wants to plot my family property so quickly, actually wishing me a long life!

Xia Daoming complained in his heart, but on the surface, he had already laughed and helped Lu Yunjin up, saying: "Godfather doesn't have anything good to give you now. That Cloud-Treading Black is clever, so I'll give it to you as a gift!"

And Lu Ye's dark circles were even more obvious.

The next day, Lu Huiyun was in even higher spirits, her face full of satisfied ruddy color. She was smiling at everyone, saying things that were unspeakably kind and friendly.

After becoming a seventh-rank Great Wu Shi, Lu Ye's mood was surging, and he suddenly gave birth to ten thousand feet of heroic spirit, directly finding Lu Huiyun to restore the husband's authority.

"However, Qi Refining cultivators also have shortcomings, that is, performing spells requires a certain amount of time. Generally speaking, the lower the cultivation base, the longer it takes to perform a spell, and the greater the power of the spell, the longer it takes to perform."

This is nothing, it's only worth two spirit stones. Today at the market, I spent three hundred spirit stones easily!

Cloud-Treading Black is already quite spiritual, and this Seeking Immortal Cliff is a place filled with spiritual energy. Xia Daoming was just worrying about not having suitable things to give Lu Yunjin, so he had a flash of inspiration and transferred Cloud-Treading Black to him.

"What's wrong with Xu Shixiong? Did you have a disagreement with Sister-in-law?" Xia Daoming pulled Lu Ye back a few steps and asked in a low voice.

Xia Daoming couldn't help but be stunned, but looking at the red-eyed appearance of Lu Ye and his wife, refusing would certainly be inappropriate. Thinking that he was still afraid of too many burdens and worries, and hadn't dared to have children with his two beautiful wives, adopting a godson was not bad.

As a result, he found that the gap between a seventh-rank Great Wu Shi and an eighth-rank Great Wu Shi was much larger than the gap between a sixth-rank Great Wu Shi and a seventh-rank Great Wu Shi!

Now it seems that although Lu Ziying looks rugged and fierce, her personality is very steady. She is a female immortal who is both talented and intelligent, only lacking in appearance.

"Daoming, we don't know what to say. Why don't you adopt Jin Er as a godson? Let him serve you in the future just like he serves us!"

"You are my Xu Shixiong, can I still lie to you!" Xia Daoming said.

Before leaving Li Cheng this time, he specifically went to Cangmang Mountain again.

During the day, he spent most of his time in Lingyun Hut cultivating and pointing out Lu Ye's cultivation, and by the way, also gave a few pointers to Lu Ziying and Lu Zhen.

"However, Aunt's husband, whether it is martial arts or the Qi Refining path, the state of mind is very important. At any time, you must guard your heart and mind, be calm in the face of favor or humiliation, so that you can go further on the path of martial arts and the Qi Refining path!"

"Look at Aunt. When she broke through to become an eighth-rank Great Wu Shi the night before last, she guarded her state of mind, was calm in the face of favor or humiliation, and the next day her spirit, energy, and spirit climbed to the peak."

"The Lu Clan has a total of only eight clan elders. One died a few days ago, and the remaining seven, three are going to garrison Cold Star Valley, and two of them are at the ninth layer of Qi Refining. It seems the situation in Cold Star Valley is indeed not very good," Xia Daoming thought for a while and said.

"Do you think I look like someone who has hope of becoming a Martial Arts Grandmaster?" Lu Ye looked at Xia Daoming angrily.

Seeing Xia Daoming say this, Lu Huiyun didn't insist anymore, while Lu Yunjin had already run to the side of Cloud-Treading Black to gently touch its mane, even forgetting the spirit rice porridge.

"Eh, Aunt's husband, your aura has become powerful today. You broke through! Congratulations! Congratulations!" Lu Ziying saw Lu Ye, was slightly startled, and then congratulated him with a face full of surprise.

She didn't hide her affairs and her relationship with Xia Daoming from him, and there was no way to hide it.

And he had no relationship with the Jin Guifeng Lu Clan. Being willing to stay and help a little in the dark, earning a little money, was all for the sake of Xu Shixiong Lu.

"Haha, okay, then I will adopt Jin Er as a godson." Soon, Xia Daoming laughed.

Cold Star Valley, the valley is as its name suggests.

Speaking to the end, Lu Ziying subconsciously looked at Xia Daoming, and a trace of regret and guilt suddenly arose in her heart.

2605: f700:43:6000:: 6a0

Before, Lu Ziying was only a third-layer Qi Refining cultivator from a side branch, not valued by the family, and the situation she knew was limited.

Lu Zhengqin was also in the crowd, and he was the most powerful one among this group.

"No, no, for my brother, I don't expect to be a Martial Arts Grandmaster. I just want to be an eighth-rank Great Wu Shi one day earlier!" Lu Ye hurriedly said.

Before truly stepping into Cold Star Valley, Xia Daoming felt wisps of yin coldness blowing with the wind. Under the sunlight, the fragments of Nether Ice Stone scattered in the valley flashed with cold light, like stars all over the sky.

She also didn't expect that the struggle in Cold Star Valley would be so intense that the family had to send three clan elders to garrison it.

Xia Daoming looked up at Lu Huiyun's burly, mountain-like back and said thoughtfully: "Sister-in-law's natural bones are powerful, and she is strong. She practices the Giant Rock Technique, which emphasizes powerful strength. Once she breaks through, her blood and internal energy will be much stronger than ordinary eighth-rank Great Martial Masters."

This time the family suddenly wanted to mobilize a large number of people to go to Cold Star Valley. Lu Zhengqin felt both terrified and afraid, and at the same time had a little bit of smugness and anticipation.

Although Lu Ziying and Lu Zhen practiced the Lu Clan's Giant Rock Technique, which was different from Xia Daoming's cultivation technique, as a Great Grandmaster-level Xia Daoming, pointing them out was more than enough. Just a few words made them feel deeply inspired.

The two families were just a struggle for interests; there was no right or wrong.

Especially Lu Zhen's face was flushed, and he swallowed his saliva hard.

Lu Ziying thought and deliberated for a while, then replied: "Martial Arts Grandmasters and Qi Refining cultivators fight in different ways. Qi Refining cultivators have more changes in combat methods and have an advantage in long-range attacks compared to Martial Arts Grandmasters."

One step behind, every step behind.

What kind of virtue and ability does her son have to be able to eat spirit rice porridge every day from such a young age!

Daoming is treating her son as his own nephew, no, his own son!

"You are too doting on Jin Er. This Cloud-Treading Black is your beloved horse, how can you give it to Jin Er!" Lu Huiyun hurriedly said.

"Don't make fun of your brother!"

As for coming forward to help the Lu Clan and defeating the Xie Clan, Xia Daoming didn't even think about it.

"Today at the family council hall, the Clan Head and the clan elders specifically explained the combat power problem between Qi Refining cultivators and Martial Arts Grandmasters to us young disciples." Lu Ziying didn't answer Lu Huiyun's question directly, but revealed a hint of memory.

Therefore, Qi Refining cultivators generally cannot let Martial Arts Grandmasters get close. Once a Martial Arts Grandmaster gets close and suddenly rises to ambush, even a ninth-rank Grandmaster can kill a sixth-layer Qi Refining cultivator.

Xia Daoming's martial arts strength was already comparable to a Great Grandmaster. Later, after settling down in Li Cheng for a year, he integrated the Dragon-Snake Technique, the Xu Clan's Winged Tiger Technique, and the Ji Clan's White Tiger Technique, and his understanding of martial arts pointed directly to the essence.

Xia Daoming curled his lip in disapproval when he heard this.

Moving in his heart, it's just that Lu Ye and his wife couldn't say the words of thanks anymore.

Lu Ye looked at Xia Daoming with resentment and shook his head.

As for Lu Ye, there is no need to say more.

"Okay, then I will adopt Jin Er as a godson." Soon, Xia Daoming laughed.

Cold Star Valley, the valley is as its name suggests.

Speaking to the end, Lu Ziying subconsciously looked at Xia Daoming, and a trace of regret and guilt suddenly arose in her heart.

She also didn't expect that the struggle in Cold Star Valley would be so intense that the family had to send three clan elders to garrison it.

But the family order has been issued. Now if she wants to go back on her word and let Xia Daoming go, it is already too late.

"But for Martial Arts Grandmasters, it is very difficult for a ninth-rank to rival a tenth-rank. To kill across levels is simply impossible."

"Hmm, broke through!" Lu Ye's expression was a bit trance-like, and there was not much joy in breaking through.

Lu Ziying held the rice bag and was stunned for a long time before nodding repeatedly, while Lu Ye and his wife had red eyes.

This day, Xia Daoming followed the trend and didn't go to the Stone Pillar Forest market again.

Xia Daoming smiled when he saw this and greeted everyone to eat spirit rice porridge.

In Lu Zhengqin's view, with his seventh-rank Great Wu Shi cultivation, in order to save her life, Lu Ziying would have to rely on him somewhat and would not dare to be as arrogant as she was in the past few days.

Soon, a servant was ordered to invite Lu Ziying to the family council hall.

Lu Yunjin's eyes left the earthen jar containing spirit rice porridge with some reluctance and came to his parents.

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention.

Below the valley, the people of Lu Ziying's faction had already gathered, waiting for their leader.

You still know this point!

Lu Ye and his wife and Lu Zhen were stunned.

Xia Daoming smiled when he saw this, asked about his room, took the saddlebag off the horse's back, and went to his room.

Eating spirit rice porridge, Lu Zhen and Lu Ye and his wife were truly filled with mixed feelings.

As a result, in the second half of the night, Lu Ye broke through the bottleneck like a broken bamboo and became a seventh-rank Great Wu Shi.

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention.

Lu Huiyun's expression today is not as ruddy as yesterday, and from time to time she still glances at Lu Ye with a bit of resentment, while Lu Ye dare not look at her directly.

The atmosphere of Jin Guifeng is becoming increasingly tense.

Therefore, the strength and realm between Qi Refining cultivators and Martial Arts Grandmasters are difficult to have a precise comparison. However, generally speaking, listening to the Clan Head's meaning, ninth-layer Qi Refining corresponds to the level of powerhouse at the eleventh-rank Grandmaster level."

Xia Daoming rubbed his chest, speechless.

"You have this idea, very good!" Xia Daoming looked at Lu Ziying with a gratified face.

It seems that as long as the Xie Clan doesn't make a move, and as long as I don't stick my head out high-profile, taking advantage of the struggle between the two families, it shouldn't be a problem to reap some benefits while saving my life!

"It just so happens that Jin Er is still young. He will definitely stay at Seeking Immortal Cliff to cultivate with peace of mind in the next few years. There is no fighting or dispute. Cloud-Treading Black happens to accompany him." Xia Daoming smiled.

Lu Ye punched Xia Daoming on the chest.

Finally having his own house at Seeking Immortal Cliff, Lu Ziying's heart was surging, and she was increasingly full of passion for the immortal path, cultivating until late at night, before finally falling asleep with satisfaction, enduring the bursts of pain in her meridians and head.

Seeing Xia Daoming congratulate Lu Huiyun, Lu Ye, with a pair of dark circles, looked at Xia Daoming with some resentment, then returned to the room silently to continue cultivating.

Xia Daoming certainly had to go to Cold Star Valley next, and there would certainly be fighting, so it was inconvenient to take Cloud-Treading Black there.

So the group sat down to eat spirit rice porridge.

"Thank you, Godfather, thank you, Godfather!" Lu Yunjin had already become very familiar with Cloud-Treading Black on the way from Jinxiu Valley to Jin Guifeng and loved this horse very much. Upon hearing this, he was naturally overjoyed and hurriedly knelt down to thank him.

Lu Ziying took Xia Daoming and the other four down the mountain to gather the people of her faction.

In an instant, Lu Zhengqin's mood became extremely complex.

——

Cold Star Valley is not far from Jin Guifeng.

That night, Xia Daoming, who was nourished by the Dragon-Pattern Purple Blood Ginseng during the day, had another good night's sleep.

After a while, the fragrance of spirit rice porridge drifted out.

Especially when they saw Lu Yunjin loving Cloud-Treading Black very much and asking Xia Daoming if he could take a little spirit rice porridge for Cloud-Treading Black to eat, and Xia Daoming actually nodded in agreement, it made them feel even more mixed feelings.

And my lair in Li Cheng can harvest at least three thousand catties of spirit rice every year!

Feeling a little smug, Xia Daoming handed the bag to Lu Ziying and said: "When you turn back, scoop a small bag and send it to Clan Elder Suyun, who is in charge of the Immortal Fate Hall. Just say it's because you love Jin Er, so you saved your own rations for him, and let the Immortal Fate Hall cook a little spirit rice porridge for him every day. In this way, even if we go to Cold Star Valley to garrison, it won't delay Jin Er's cultivation."

On the mountain ridge below the valley toward Jin Guifeng, some simple stone houses were built.

Lu Ye and his wife held Lu Yunjin's hand and came to Xia Daoming, saying: "Jin Er, you kneel down!"

"It's okay, our Tenglong Mansion's Dragon-Snake Technique's hidden form is very mysterious, and I am well-versed in this way. After going to Cold Star Valley, I will continue to be an eighth-rank Great Wu Shi. The Yan Clan side should not have anyone specifically paying attention to me. At that time, if there is really an accident, it will be convenient for me to run away or ambush." Xia Daoming said with an indifferent face.

The couple stayed awake all night again.

When he came out, there was a bag of about twenty catties of spirit rice in his hand.

He was just worried that Lu Ziying was young and vigorous, and had just broken through to become a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator, becoming complacent, anxious to perform meritorious service, and foolishly rushing to the front. Then his investment, even if it didn't go down the drain this time, it was estimated that in the near future, it would soon go down the drain.

Lu Ziying looked at Lu Ye's more obvious dark circles, first surprised, then found the answer for herself, and then gave a long-winded speech.

Lu Ziying's sentence about being calm in the face of favor or humiliation and not being stimulated made Lu Ye turn back to the room silently.

"I heard that ninth-layer Qi Refining cultivators have strength comparable to eleventh-rank Martial Arts Grandmasters. Is that true?" Lu Huiyun hesitated for a moment, her eyes looking at Lu Ziying and asking.

Found that of the five immature Transforming Dragon Fruits, one was missing, and three had matured.

"This..." Lu Ziying and the others looked at Xia Daoming carrying a bag of spirit rice out, their eyes straight.

It won't work if this continues!

"Your idea is very good!" Xia Daoming looked at Lu Ziying with a gratified face.

It seems that as long as the Xie Clan doesn't make a move, and as long as I don't stick my head out high-profile, taking advantage of the struggle between the two families, it shouldn't be a problem to reap some benefits while saving my life!

"It just so happens that Jin Er is still young. He will definitely stay at Seeking Immortal Cliff to cultivate with peace of mind in the next few years. There is no fighting or dispute. Cloud-Treading Black happens to accompany him." Xia Daoming smiled.

Lu Ye punched Xia Daoming on the chest.

Finally having his own house at Seeking Immortal Cliff, Lu Ziying's heart was surging, and she was increasingly full of passion for the immortal path, cultivating until late at night, before finally falling asleep with satisfaction, enduring the bursts of pain in her meridians and head.

Seeing Xia Daoming congratulate Lu Huiyun, Lu Ye, with a pair of dark circles, looked at Xia Daoming with some resentment, then returned to the room silently to continue cultivating.

Xia Daoming certainly had to go to Cold Star Valley next, and there would certainly be fighting, so it was inconvenient to take Cloud-Treading Black there.
