Chapter 56

When the City Defense Battalion arrived, the giant ape deformed human nearly four meters tall jumped into the river and disappeared.

Li Youyi didn't chase, worried that Zhao Zhizhuo would have an accident at this critical moment. When he caught up with him, Zhao Zhizhuo was on his way to seek help from the Cang Li tribe.

Zhao Zhizhuo said angrily: "The person who made the move was the Silver-Backed Ape Yao Zhengsheng, one of the top 100 martial artists in the Seven-Spring Hall of Li Province, a person of the same era as me. It must be that Yang Yun and Yang Qingxi promised the Five Seas Pill, so he dared to kill in the street. It's simply too lawless. Let's go find the First Head. They are insulting the First Head's face, and the First Head will not ignore it."

Li Youyi pulled him: "Do you have evidence? Who can prove that Yao Zhengsheng was invited by Yang Yun? Even if the First Head believes our judgment and believes that it was the person invited by Yang Yun, but without evidence, what can he do? A senior going to beat a junior?"

Zhao Zhizhuo calmed down quickly and said: "Since Yang Yun has made such a ruthless move, there must be a follow-up. Why don't we go find the Young Master? The Young Master is the number one person of the young generation in Ninth Li City. If he goes to warn Yang Yun, it won't cause any gossip."

Li Youyi also had a pride in his heart: "Just a Yang Yun, not Yang Qingxi. Besides, the Young Master can suppress the Yang Yun on the surface, but where can he stop Yang Yun's secret hands? Let's not think of asking for help whenever we encounter something. The things in this world have to rely on ourselves in the end. Old Zhao, where is your former heroic spirit? Has it all been worn away in these ten years?"

Zhao Zhizhuo smiled bitterly: "People are old, where is there any sharpness? I was beaten to my knees long ago, and talking about heroic spirit is just a joke. You say, what should we do next?"

"Go see that senior first, helping you break the spring and reshape it is the top priority."

Li Youyi stepped out, thinking of something, and said: "Old Zhao, Yang Yun owes me a carriage, it's not a small amount of money, I've recorded it for him!"

Zhao Zhizhuo chased after him, looking at Li Youyi's back, secretly admiring the calmness and the sharpness that never extinguished in this young man. If it were someone else, they would either hide in the Cang Li tribe or have slipped out of the city by now.

The two walked along the river.

Li Youyi asked while walking: "Old Zhao, what do you mean by the Seven-Spring Hall and the top 100 martial artists you mentioned earlier?"

Zhao Zhizhuo said: "The Seven-Spring Hall is a ring opened by the State Governor's Mansion, where seven-spring martial artists can go to make a name for themselves."

"You must know that after a magic martial artist opens the hundred wisdoms on the top of the head in the seventh spring, they can choose to impact the Five Seas realm. Once they break into the Five Seas realm, it is a sweet pastry for any force."

"But this level, out of ten, eight or nine can't pass. There are countless seven-spring martial artists in the entire Li Province who are trapped to death under the Five Seas realm, and some can only be servants of big clans."

Li Youyi thought of that sentence in "Nine Springs Outline": "Top-level talent, twenty years of hard work, seven springs are promising."

In other words, a martial artist with top-level talent, in their twenties, has hope of opening seven springs.

And top-level talent is just the threshold for martial arts in the eyes of those million-level power clans and sects.

Not to mention the much larger number of medium-level talents. These people struggle for decades, and there are plenty who can enter the seven springs.

Zhao Zhizhuo said: "The original intention of the State Governor's Mansion to open the Seven-Spring Hall was to select the strongest seven-spring martial artists and then bestow the Five Seas Pill by the Lingxiao Palace. This naturally made the seven-spring martial artists in the world crazy, finding an opportunity to promote to the Five Seas realm."

"The saying of top 100 martial artists emerged at that time, representing both glory and the opportunity to promote to the Five Seas realm."

"Ten years ago... to be precise, three years earlier, after the Lingxiao Palace issued the Small Field Order, the Five Seas Pill was not so easy to get!"

"After the war broke out and the world rebelled against the Lingxiao Palace, the Five Seas Pill stopped directly."

"But the Seven-Spring Hall still has its significance. There, it can satisfy the sense of achievement of those martial arts practitioners who cannot promote to the Five Seas realm. In addition, major forces will also select people from the top 100 martial artists and bestow the Five Seas Pill to subdue them for their own use."

"The upward channel is still there, but it has become narrower. But the Five Seas Pill is so precious, major forces don't have enough for themselves, how much price do you have to pay to get the ones that leak out?"

Zhao Zhizhuo continued: "These old seven-springs, although they can't break through the realm, can spend decades honing their techniques, almost reaching the extreme. Those who can become top 100 martial artists are not simple. In the same realm, those young pure immortal bodies are not necessarily their opponents."

"I heard that there are people in the top 100 martial artists who have defeated the Five Seas realm."

"Of course, that is definitely not the seven-spring cultivation, the eight-spring possibility is the greatest. After all, there are some who open eight springs and cannot break the Five Seas, and there are some in every province, and taking the Five Seas Pill is useless."

"That Silver-Backed Ape Yao Zhengsheng, born with divine power, his body is much larger than other deformed humans, and ten years ago he cultivated the Opening Mountain Stick Technique to the realm of Law Harmony, but he was only ranked at the back of the top 100 martial artists."

"He is over fifty years old this year, and if he doesn't fight hard, he will have no chance at all."

Li Youyi said: "What realm is this Law Harmony?"

"Heavenly Dao Law Harmony!"

Zhao Zhizhuo explained: "It is to cultivate a technique to the point where it can fit some wonderful laws between heaven and earth. Of course, this fit can only be considered a little bit. But it is also quite remarkable, requiring day after day of grinding, and decades of hard work on one technique, and very few can succeed. Many Five Seas realm magic martial artists cannot reach this step."

"Fortunately, you have a magic tool, you can use the sharpness of the magic tool to break his Opening Mountain Stick Technique, otherwise it would be dangerous today!"

Li Youyi thought of Yao Zhengsheng's unavoidable stick every time he recalled it, and felt amazed. It seems that he needs to know more about Heavenly Dao Law Harmony in the future, and strive to cultivate such a move.

When he performed "Taiyi Opens the Sea" at the critical moment, he felt it very much.

It's a pity that that feeling cannot be sustained.

Li Youyi took Zhao Zhizhuo around for a long time, even changing his clothes, and after confirming that he was not followed, he found an inn at random.

Senior experts may not live in luxury.

A more ordinary inn might be more suitable. The main thing is...

Opening a room is cheap.

A hundred paces away from the inn, Li Youyi stopped and said: "Old Zhao, you should also be able to see that although we are outsiders, our identities are not simple."

Zhao Zhizhuo had long suspected this. After all, people with simple identities, where can they have magic tools? Where can they let two companions undergo pure immortal body transformation?

He even guessed that Li Youyi and the others were not from the Lingxiao Life Realm, perhaps some minority tribes in some strange secret realms.

Li Youyi began to tell the story he had prepared long ago: "That senior is also from our side, but his body has some problems and he is temporarily recuperating in Ninth Li City. I only recently got in touch with him. Logically, I shouldn't have brought you here, in case the news leaks..."

Zhao Zhizhuo said quickly: "I know the rules! I swear by the God of Ninth Li, if I leak half a word, let me lose everything I care about in this life, including my life."

"Then I will report it first, you wait for me here."

For the sake of safety, Li Youyi gritted his teeth and spent two hundred silver, giving the rent for a month of long-term housing.

He took the stone coffin out of the Evil Camel Bell, arranged the room properly, and then went to pick up Zhao Zhizhuo.

"Knock knock!"

Li Youyi knocked on the door and asked: "Senior, my friend is here, can we come in?"

Senior Coffin's voice sounded: "Come in!"

The two pushed the door and entered. The nether mist inside was dense, and nothing could be seen in the darkness.

It was Senior Coffin who urged the Ghost Flag, clearly not wanting Zhao Zhizhuo to know that he was a remnant corpse.

Zhao Zhizhuo was nervous and at a loss. This moment finally arrived, and his heart was still bottomless. After all, breaking the spring and reshaping it was as difficult as ascending to heaven. What if the magic tool he mastered was not of high enough grade? What if his spring eyes had been damaged for too long? What if...

There are too many what-ifs.

"Junior surnamed Zhao, come over!" Senior Coffin said.

Li Youyi's perception was keen. Although he couldn't see, he realized that Senior Coffin was sitting on the bed at this moment, his scalp felt numb, and he imagined the picture of a remnant corpse sitting there in his mind.

Senior Coffin helped Zhao Zhizhuo refine the spring liquid and reshape the spring eyes, not using the Evil Camel Bell, but using his own Nine Emperor Banner.

This made Li Youyi more certain of his guess.

The Dragon God Avenue assassination incident spread to the tribal school opened by the Cang Li tribe in Ninth Li City only half an hour later.

The head of the tribal school had already rushed back to the ancestral mountain because of the Snow Wolf King tooth incident.

Now the tribal school was sitting in charge by Li Songlin.

In the tribal school, Li Songlin, the Cang Li First Head, learned of this news, and the laziness on his whole body was swept away, like a sword out of its sheath: "Too lawless! How is the person?"

The person who came to report described the detailed process of the assassination.

"Silver-Backed Ape Yao Zhengsheng still has some things. Being able to withstand his assassination, although borrowing magic tools, is still very eye-catching," Li Songlin said.

The person who came to report said: "There are witnesses who say that his sword of broken stick already has the shadow of Heavenly Dao Law Harmony."

"This is a bit unexpected, how old is he?"

Li Songlin became interested, and a thought arose in his heart, because he also practiced sword technique, and asked: "Have they gone to the Cang Li tribal mansion?"

The person who came to report shook his head: "Didn't go to the Young Master's side, nor did they go to the Ninth Li Dao Academy to find Fourth Miss, it seems they want to carry it themselves."

"It's quite a backbone."

Li Songlin smiled, but soon his face turned cold again: "The affairs of the young generation, it is not convenient for me to intervene. You go and tell Cang Li that he is responsible for this matter. If he can't even suppress a Yang Qingxi, then his name as the first successor of the Ninth Li tribe will not be loud, and no one will really take him seriously."

"In addition, you go to the Yang tribe and pass a word, if there is any accident to the people in that residence within a month, I will sweep through all the factions of the Yang tribe in Ninth Li City. At that time, don't blame me for not giving face."

The person who came to report said: "What about after a month?"

Li Songlin smiled: "I let that kid enter the Ninth Li Dao Academy. If he enters the Dao Academy, it will be much safer, but he is timid and afraid of this and that, hesitating... just force him. A month is enough for him to consider clearly!"

Before the live broadcast, I promised a certain alliance leader brother to send a signed Huang Long Sword, but the pressure of coding recently is too great, and the fish wife just gave birth to a child and is busy. Very sorry, I will make it up when I send peripheral products later.
