Chapter 76: The Stream Murmurs
Yao Guan City, Zaomei Estate.
Approaching dawn, the sky was still dark, and many people had not slept all night.
In the estate, the lamps and candles had been changed once, and the wax marks were piled up. Nearly a hundred figures gathered in the front yard, surrounding the silver remnant corpse that had just been brought back in the center.
Half of the martial artists of the younger generation of the Jiu Li tribe present had experienced many battles and were not afraid of dead bodies; on the contrary, they were amazed.
"This is Xue Zheng!"
"Before Xue Zheng transformed into a pure immortal body, he could rank fourth in the Seven Springs Hall."
"In the past few days, the Xue clan and the Sui Sect have been creating momentum, claiming that Xue Zheng will definitely break through to the Nine Springs Ancestral Field. A Nine Springs pure immortal body is extremely rare in any state and can be the inheritor of a ten-million-level gate; it is clear they are cultivating him to compete with our Jiu Li tribe."
"If it were the older generation who made a move, or if it were a poisonous hand below the Five Seas Realm, this matter would be a big deal! The Xue clan and the Sui Sect will definitely not let it go!"
……
Cang Li squatted down, used his fingers to touch the place where the sword had split the body, and perceived it with battle method intent. In his mind, two figures were outlined, and the vague scene of Li Li Youyi performing that last sword strike appeared, as if he had seen it with his own eyes.
In his deep eyes, a look of unbelievable brilliance flowed, and he stood up: "It was done by his sword! And what he used was exactly the Heavenly Dao Law convergence stunt he practiced, and the aura is exactly the same as the one where Yao Yao Zhengsheng's head was split open."
The radiance in Li Ling's Yintang Spirit Realm flickered like stars: "It was his aura all along; I can sense it. I told you, it was impossible for him to fear Xue Zheng, but you all refused to believe me."
The young cultivators of the Jiu Li tribe around were all feeling incredible, discussing spiritedly.
"Could it be that he has broken through to the Five Seas?" Li Qing'er said.
Cang Li shook his head: "The charm and aura of performing the same sword technique in the Five Seas Realm and the Gushing Spring Realm are absolutely different. If he had already broken through to the Five Seas, this sword would definitely be even more domineering."
Li Li Songlin's face was very cold and stern: "Then there is only one explanation; Li Youyi has broken through to the Nine Springs Ancestral Sea and is a Supreme Person."
"Boom!"
These words exploded in everyone's hearts like thunder.
A Nine Springs Supreme Person is even rarer than a pure immortal body. On the surface of Li State, it is even rarer; even a million-level powerful clan like an earth emperor often takes ten or even dozens of years to cultivate a Nine Springs Supreme Person.
"A good Supreme Person under twenty years old was forced away by a group of flies and dogs; no wonder the Jiu Li tribe is declining, it's all deserved." Li Li Songlin vented the stuffy fire in his heart like this.
It was rare to have a successor with both character and talent; where should he be found back now?
……
The day dawned, and the morning light was revealed.
The four were on their way in the mountains.
Shi Liuyu's body was as thin as a stick, wearing normal-sized robes loosely. He said to Shi Jiuzhai, who was walking beside him: "Old Nine, I heard a piece of news yesterday that the head of the direct line of the Cang Li tribe opened an other-realm coffin at the Zaomei Estate and opened something extraordinary."
"What thing?"
Shi Shi Jiuzhai was like a poor ghost reincarnated, extremely concerned about treasures and money, and was immediately attracted.
Shi Shi Liuyu said: "The coffin wasn't opened…… Look, you're in a hurry again, listen to me finish. That other-realm coffin is rumored to come from Kunlun, and just the coffin itself is comparable to a thousand-year spirit herb. Not a plant of spirit herb, but a jin of coffin is a jin of thousand-year spirit herb."
Shi Shi Jiuzhai's pupils shrank, he held his breath slightly, and immediately stopped: "Is the news true? Um…… you wouldn't have taken a fancy to Li Li Songgu's wife and want to trick me into selling my life, and then do something else? I heard that Li Li Songgu's wife is a pure immortal body, looks young and stunning, and has a different kind of charm."
"Pah! Pah…… We are brothers, why would I pit you? What happened when the coffin was opened yesterday has already spread throughout Yao Guan City; you can find anyone to verify it." Shi Shi Liuyu said.
Shi Jiuzhai's breathing became rapid; he was truly unable to control his heart, and turned to look at Li Youyi: "You were at the Zaomei Estate yesterday; you should be very clear about the other-realm coffin, right?"
Li Li Youyi's mind turned a hundred times, and he realized instantly who Li Li Songgu wanted to fish for; apart from the famous money-grubbing Dharma King Shi Jiuzhai, who else could it be?
But he was also very worried that Shi Shi Liuyu really had some crooked ideas.
You must know, this Dharma King Shi Liuyu is obsessed with beauty, has a very bad reputation in the Southern Region, and is almost shouted at by everyone.
Li Youyi said: "The matter of the other-realm coffin is true, there is nothing to say. But I have to advise Dharma King Shi Liuyu, it's best not to touch the people of the Zaomei Estate, otherwise, even if I get the news of the Jiu Li Hidden Sect, I will definitely not hand it over to you."
"You can't even protect yourself, and you dare to threaten me?"
Shi Shi Liuyu revealed his teeth and sneered, mobilized his magic power, lifted his sleeves, and wanted to teach Li Li Youyi a lesson.
Shi Shi Shishi stopped him: "You said you wanted to let her murmur like a stream, I've been waiting to see it!"
"Get lost, you're still young, don't learn bad things from that slut Shi Qiqing. What murmur like a stream, I never said that."
Seeing that Li Li Youyi had no fear in his eyes, only coldness, Shi Shi Liuyu withdrew his magic power and comforted: "Don't worry, I, Shi Shi Liuyu, steal with a way; I won't hit my own people, otherwise I would definitely be abandoned by everyone and wouldn't live until now. As long as you handle things for us wholeheartedly, let alone arranging your sweetheart for you, even if it is your sweetheart……"
Shi Shi Jiuzhai knew he was going to say some unscrupulous words again, or it might be counterproductive, so he coughed dryly.
Shi Shi Liuyu narrowed his eyes and laughed: "Even if you want to try the murmur of the stream yourself, the stream flows long, the stream water is sweet, I will arrange it for you."
"I only seek peace of mind, not others." Li Li Youyi thought secretly, Li Li Songgu knew that the three Dharma Kings of the Earth Wolf King Army had come to Li State, and he dared to fish, clearly prepared for everything, and the worry in his heart eased slightly.
Shi Shi Liuyu took out three pills the size of beans and handed them over: "The Six Desires Rune in your body will flare up once a month. Every time it flares up, you can take a pill to suppress it. Therefore, on this trip to the Jiu Li Hidden Sect, you only have four months at most."
"I heard you have a grudge with Yang Yang Qingxi; if you can complete the task in the first month, I will arrange for you to murmur like a stream."
"What about completing the task in the second month?" Shi Shi Shishi was very interested, his eyes very bright.
Shi Shi Liuyu said: "Then you can only be ranked behind me and be Yang Yang Qingxi's second man."
"What about the third month?" Shi Shi Shishi said.
Shi Shi Liuyu said: "Then you can only be Yang Yang Qingxi's third man."
"What about the fourth month?" Shi Shi Shishi said.
Shi Shi Liuyu laughed: "There are four of us here, what do you think? Will I treat you badly, Sixth Brother?"
"Forget it, forget it, I'm more interested in eating and drinking." Shi Shi Shishi shook his head repeatedly.
Shi Shi Liuyu said: "That's fine, I'll let you eat and drink when the time comes."
How could Li Li Youyi believe the pie drawn by Shi Shi Liuyu, and he had no interest in this pie. His heart had long been filled with worry, and after taking the three pills, he asked: "If after four months, I still cannot leave the Hidden Sect, and the pills have been eaten, what should I do when the Six Desires Rune flares up?"
"?" Shi Shi Liuyu said.
Li Li Youyi was obviously relieved: "I thought I would die directly."
"Look, the young man has no awareness of the severity of the situation." Shi Shi Liuyu pointed to himself: "I was once fatter than Old Ten, and I was tortured by the Six Desires Rune for two months, and the damage to my body could never be made up."
Shi Shi Liuyu patted Li Li Youyi on the shoulder: "It's best to complete the task within four months, and then go to the Flower Boat of Love in the underground underworld market of Jiu Li City and find a woman named Bai Shu; she will bring you to find me."
Shi Shi Liuyu continued to lead the way in front.
Shi Shi Shishi suddenly reacted, shocked: "Sixth Brother, in those two months, didn't you have hundreds of women? My god!"
Shi Shi Jiuzhai pulled out a smile, as if deliberately saying it for Li Li Youyi to hear: "Your Sixth Brother is because he didn't complete the task assigned by the Heavenly King, so he suffered the punishment of the Six Desires Rune. Those two months, he was locked in the Wolf Cave."
"Old Nine, shut up."
Shi Shi Liuyu wanted to kill Shi Shi Jiuzhai; not only were his eyes and hair green, but his face was also green like vegetable color.
Shi Shi Shishi was knowing this explosive secret for the first time, and said with lingering fear: "Li Youyi, the Earth Wolf King Army will not be stingy with rewards for those who have merit, but the punishment for those who don't complete the task is also extremely cruel."
At this moment, Li Li Youyi truly felt a chill down his spine and felt panic about the side effects of the Six Desires Rune.
……
The mysterious elder in the black robe of the Li surname sat in a carriage and looked at the four people walking toward him, his gaze sweeping over Shi Shi Liuyu, Shi Shi Jiuzhai, and Shi Shi Shishi one by one.
His tone was hoarse, covering his real voice: "You should believe the old man like the Coffin Mountain; arranging other people to go in will only increase the risk of the Hidden Sect's suspicion."
"Don't worry, this kid has a very good relationship with your Jiu Li tribe, the Hidden Sect will definitely not suspect." Shi Shi Jiuzhai laughed.
"Since you insist, the old man can only take him."
Immediately after, the mysterious elder in the black robe added: "But every year the nine tribes will send at least one teenager, and only one can survive in the end. If he is in the Hidden Sect and dies at the hands of Li Qing, that is just the rule of the Hidden Sect."
"Since you insist, then this old man has no choice but to take him along."
"Still questioning the old man! The Earth Wolf King Army is so distrustful of allies, I'm afraid it's hard to achieve great things." The mysterious elder in the black robe said.
Shi Shi Jiuzhai didn't care at all and looked at Li Li Youyi: "Go! Don't worry, this old senior is one of the nine leaders of the Jiu Li tribe, he will safely take you to the reception place of the Hidden Sect."
The conversation of the few people just now set off a monstrous wave in Li Li Youyi's heart, unable to calm down.
How could Coffin Mountain be involved?
Didn't the Earth Wolf King Army frame Coffin Mountain?
And why is there a leader-level figure colluding with bandits? What are they trying to do by probing the Hidden Sect?
What kind of terrifying storm is behind this?
He didn't dare to think deeply; the more he thought, the more uneasy he felt. It was not only worrying about the safety of the Cang Li tribe, but more worrying about Zhao Meng, Cai Cai Yutong, and the others who were cultivating in the Cang Li clan school.
Li Li Youyi tried his best to make himself calmer, walked toward the carriage, and observed the mysterious elder in the car secretly.
But the carriage was like a black hole, swallowing all light and heat, and he could only see a black, old shadow. And that shadow released a terrifying momentum when he looked over.
Li Li Youyi's heart and soul were shocked, and he almost fell to the ground.
This old man was far more terrifying than Shi Shi Jiuzhai and Li Li Songlin, absolutely one of the top few people in Li State.
The mysterious elder in the black robe sneered, and a black cloth bag was thrown out of the carriage: "Get on the carriage behind, put the mental energy cloth bag on your head, it will seal all your perceptions. This is the rule of the Hidden Sect!"
Li Li Youyi came to the rear carriage, and after boarding, there was already a tall and thin figure in black sitting inside, with his whole head covered by a black cloth bag, his back straight and upright.
This should be that Nine Springs Supreme Person, Li Qing!
Li Li Youyi sat down in the carriage, sized him up carefully, and remembered his figure and aura.
The voice of urging came from the front carriage: "Why don't you put it on yet."
He didn't dare to disobey, so he had to put the cloth bag on his head.
"Whoosh!"
The lower edge of the black cloth bag flickered with spiritual light and tightened instantly.
Li Li Youyi was slightly panicked, finding that his whole world had become quiet, unable to hear any sound, unable to see any light, unable to smell any odor, only able to feel the carriage frame moving forward.
Fortunately, the breathability of the cloth bag was very good.
He was not interested in the route to the Hidden Sect, so he didn't act rashly; instead, he lay down in the carriage and fell asleep. Anyway, Master Coffin knew where the Hidden Sect was, and he must also know how to enter and exit.
Besides, life was not in his own hands now, and worrying was useless, so he might as well take this opportunity to recuperate.
The mysterious elder of the Li surname sitting in the front carriage perceived Li Li Youyi who had fallen asleep in the rear carriage, and the corners of his mouth moved: "The Earth Wolf King Army dispatched the Three Dharma Kings together, and they only found such a person? Sure enough, it's a group of grass bandits, hard to achieve great things."
……
Li Li Youyi was too sleepy; he had been exhausted for a period of time and originally wanted to have a good sleep in Yao Guan City. As a result, he encountered things one after another, and not only did he not sleep, but he also had a fierce battle, making him even more exhausted.
Being covered by such a black cloth bag, he naturally slept very soundly, as if he wanted to make up for the sleep of the past month.
He even dreamed of returning to Earth, playing baseball with classmates and friends.
The baseball bat was very long and smooth, but someone always came to grab it. Fortunately, he was strong enough, and his hands grabbed it very firmly, and no one could grab it from his hands.
When he woke up, he felt his chest being pressed, and in his daze, he used his hands to touch and pinch quickly, perceiving its texture and material characteristics, but found it was a slender leg. The last pinch touched the root of someone's thigh, and his thumb touched the lower abdomen.
It was not Li Qing.
