"Daoist Shanqing... Daoist Shanqing..."

Li Li Zhouwei's expression had a subtle change, looking at the old man in front of him who lowered his brow and said nothing, he asked:

"Is it really missing? Such a person, whose divine ability has been perfected, how could he suddenly disappear? If there is a matter of proving the position, the world changes, and the world knows it."

His words carried a hint of probing. Cui Cui Changfu sat in the same place for two moments, left the seat and closed the hall, then returned to the steps and was somewhat hesitant, replying:

"The adult is right. The ancient books have discussed it. Dui Gold is proven but not obtained: 【There should be early autumn and winter, there should be soldiers and armor moving, merchants gathering, and the world is happy】—but if it is proven, who can remember it? The one who openly announces it to the world and lets the world write about it... must have a sincere heart of a venerable one. There are not many such people..."

Obviously, even if the ancient books did not record someone achieving the Dao, his words implied that this Daoist Shanqing Daoist had already succeeded and retired!

"Dui Gold!"

Li Li Zhouwei was silent for a moment.

"Dui Gold" is not an unknown Daoist lineage. The Immortal Sect that controls one side of the Yue State, the famous Jin Yu, is the orthodox Daoist sect of the Dui Gold lineage, known as the 【Jin Yi Daoist Lineage】! The True Person of the Jin Yu Sect who manifested in the world has always been called the owner of the "Dui Gold" fruit position!

"If this unfathomable National Master achieved the Dao in those years, if there was no matter of 'from the leap', eight or nine out of ten, he was a person of Dui Gold!"

He keenly sensed the meaning of the old man in front of him:

"The Taiyuan True Person of the Jin Yu Sect... is also an enemy of Bright Yang... not to be trusted. If Li Li Qianyuan were to be resurrected, he would probably be the first to jump out and stop it!"

Whether this news is accurate is hard to say, at least it is currently the one-sided statement of the Cui family. Li Li Zhouwei sensed that the other party had many secrets that he didn't dare to say. His expression became solemn, and for the first time, he asked openly:

"I have one question: Is Wei Li really the Douxuan Daoist lineage!"

Although he already had ten thousand pieces of evidence in his heart, he still had to ask this sentence to get a clear answer. The old man stared at him for a long time and replied:

"Wei Li is to Douxuan as Great Ning is to Douxuan. If Your Highness must have an answer... then it is—yes!"

Li Li Zhouwei looked at him and suddenly asked:

"I would like to hear... what ancient news there is about Dui Gold."

Cui Cui Changfu hurriedly shook his head. Even though he knew what he wanted to hear, he replied:

"I dare not talk about Dui Gold. The old man has only heard some stories about Gold Virtue... Does Your Highness know the 【Strategy of Thunder and Cloud-Plucking Daoist Method】?"

How could Li Li Zhouwei not know? When it comes to familiarity with the 【Strategy of Thunder and Cloud-Plucking Daoist Method】, there are not many people in the sea who can compare to his family! His family's elder became a spirit because of this path and has not been able to take a step out of the sea to this day!

He nodded quietly, and Cui Cui Changfu said faintly:

"Profound Thunder is located in the North Sea, often called 【Beigong Divine Thunder】, but few people know about the other three seas... In fact, after the destruction of the Lei Gong, to suppress demon cultivators, thunder paths were set up in all four seas."

"It's just that after the destruction of the Lei Gong, the Profound Thunder lineage was severely damaged. Most of these Daoist lineages attached themselves to other Douxuan Daoist lineages. Among them, the East Sea Daoist lineage was second only to the North Sea, guarded by the first disciple of the 【Yan Yang Temple Palace】 who entered the sea to rebuild order, which is the 【Strategy of Thunder and Cloud-Plucking Daoist Method】. The 【Mo Tong Palace】 of the Dense Forest Daoist lineage manifested, stepped into the South Sea, integrated the thunder path, and still called itself 【Mo Tong Important Palace】... Only the West Sea thunder path was weak and unbearable. The North Sea collapsed, and it was destroyed that day, leaving no traces."

Cui Cui Changfu wanted to say something but stopped, and replied:

"And behind this 【Strategy of Thunder and Cloud-Plucking Daoist Method】, there is also an adult... whose title is 【Xu Fang Ting Ming Heavenly Thunder Venerable】, the last Venerable to ascend to the Thunder Position, ordered to guard the East Sea, acting low-key, and lived until the era of the various solar positions plotting..."

"It was precisely because of his protection that the last piece of the Profound Thunder Daoist lineage was kept."

Li Li Zhouwei listened carefully, and Cui Cui Changfu changed the subject and whispered:

"But when the Great Liang fell, the world was in chaos, the Fu Qi family rose in the North, Xiu Yue achieved... Liang fell and Zhao rose, the world was pacified, but this adult suddenly disappeared. The Lei Yun Temple, which was the 【Strategy of Thunder and Cloud-Plucking Daoist Method】's foothold, also known as the Lei Yun Divine Island at that time, sank into the seabed and disappeared."

"In the same year, 【Mo Tong Zero Palace】 ascended in broad daylight, the eighteen islands of the South Sea rose from the ground, and the era of the thunder path was exhausted."

Cui Cui Changfu raised his brow and looked at Li Li Zhouwei, saying:

"From this time on, this Dui Gold thing began to eliminate the residual thunder."

"So... residual electricity falling on gold started from this time..."

Li Li Zhouwei was clear in his heart:

"Eight or nine out of ten, it was the means of this Dui Gold True Person... It was he who promoted the rise and fall of Qi, and it was also he who eradicated the residual electricity."

You know, when Zhang Zhang Duanyan came to the Li family to issue the Immortal Decree in those years, he clearly called Mount Luoxia an Upper Sect, clarifying the subordinate relationship between Mount Luoxia and Jin Yu... If you treat this True Person Zhang as a person who understands the profound, this matter is very clear.

"The reason why the Daoist Shanqing Daoist could drive the people like cattle and sheep is very likely that he was behind the path of the society that was against the Lei Gong. Whether it was an alliance or a transaction, perhaps because he borrowed the power of the society in this great change, the matter of residual electricity became his reward... 'But since this is the case, why is the path of the society not seen?'"

He pondered for a long time and asked:

"【Mo Tong Palace】, are there any descendants? Ascending in broad daylight looks like a sign of one person achieving the Dao and the chickens and dogs ascending to heaven, not like a miserable end."

Seeing him ask deeper and deeper, Cui Cui Changfu became gradually anxious. Fortunately, this place was managed by the Dragon Clan, and it was originally not good with the Lei Gong and Mount Luoxia. This matter could be mentioned, and he dared not not answer him, so he opened his mouth and gritted his teeth:

"【Mo Tong Palace】... its owner was extremely miraculous, once the first disciple of the Nanxiang Daoist lineage. At that time, the four secrets of Nanxiang had already declined, and he was called the immortal talent who revived Nanxiang..."

"But this Daoist lineage reached the South Sea, but it had officially broken away from the Dense Forest... no longer following Douxuan, achieving the Dao with 'Sui Qi', 'Upper Witch', and 'Shen Kui', mixing immortals and Buddhism, calling itself the Mo Tong Daoist lineage."

"Mixing immortals and Buddhism again?"

Li Li Zhouwei frowned and asked.

This is not the first time. It is said that the owner of 【Yan Yang Temple Palace】 fell because of the combination of immortals and Buddhism, and the 【Strategy of Thunder and Cloud-Plucking Daoist Method】 was called Lei Yun Temple, and now 【Mo Tong Palace】 is also a mixture of immortals and Buddhism. It has happened several times in a row, I am afraid it cannot be explained by simple reasons.

Being asked by Li Li Zhouwei like this, Cui Cui Changfu looked a bit dim and replied:

"This matter... is hard to say. It needs to be traced back to more ancient times, and I don't know the reason, but at least two of the three Daoist lineages known to the world as Douxuan are indistinguishable from Buddhism, only the Beigong Thunder Path has clear boundaries."

Cui Cui Changfu was saddened:

"From the perspective of us juniors, we don't feel it's a good thing. 'Hua Qi' was proven by Su Su Xikong, that's all. The 'Shen Kui' of those years was also a Douxuan Daoist lineage, but it was passed around and finally ended up in the hands of Buddhism..."

He paused slightly and asked belatedly:

"Does Your Highness know 'Shen Kui'? There are not many Daoist lineages in the world that know it now..."

Li Li Zhouwei naturally knew this Zhao Emperor Daoist lineage, nodded to signal him to continue, Cui Cui Changfu immediately confessed and replied:

"【Mo Tong Palace】 actually has remnants... more than 50% of the major Daoist lineages in the South Sea have obtained their remnants... such as 【Nan Shun Luo She】, 【Da Kong Hai Temple】... The South Sea Daoist lineages are self-contained, originating from this."

These are all familiar names. Li Li Zhouwei's heart was set, listening as Cui Cui Changfu gritted his teeth:

"Some words I didn't dare to say in the past, but now it doesn't matter. To say something offensive... my family also has some history, adult... Your Highness knows the 【Listen to Thunder Island】 Miao family? He has an ancestor Miao Miao Dushan, rumored to be a genius who combined the thunder path with the demon path."

Li Li Zhouwei paused, Cui Cui Changfu sneered:

"I heard small news, this Miao Miao Dushan is not a powerful character. There are many geniuses in the world, but there is absolutely no genius to this extent! How can a young person combine the thunder path with the demon path that is incompatible with water and fire? If he really had such Daoist practice, he would have been sitting in the Golden Position long ago, and we would all have to call him adult. How could he have repeatedly hit walls in the sea?!"

"Several of our families are spreading underneath that he obtained some secret method, had his own inspiration, and obtained this path from it. He has some genius, but it absolutely hasn't reached the point of subverting common sense."

Li Li Zhouwei narrowed his eyes and said:

"You mean... he obtained the profound Daoist lineage of 【Mo Tong Palace】, didn't dare to spread it, and wrote the method of Thunder Island based on this?"

Cui Cui Changfu pondered and didn't speak, which was considered a default.

This 【Mo Tong Palace】 is fine, and the ugly things of 【Listen to Thunder Island】 are also fine. It's not inappropriate to talk about them separately, but once connected... the meaning is unusual!

If Miao Miao Dushan really obtained ancient inheritance, and from it obtained the method of thunder path demon cultivation, and this ancient inheritance was passed down by 【Mo Tong Zero Palace】... what does it represent? Inheritance has never been aimless. 【Mo Tong Palace】's Daoist child was clearly from Douxuan, and drew a line with Douxuan to ascend in broad daylight and achieve a True Person... I am afraid it echoes this method of thunder path demon cultivation!

Li Li Zhouwei was shocked:

"I am afraid this former Daoist child... not to mention relying on the profound, at least betrayed the Lei Gong, achieving the Dao by any means... from then on, he walked a completely contradictory path in the brilliant heavenly power... from then on, there was a method of thunder path demon cultivation. The Miao family and Miao Miao Dushan were just cultivating along this followable path!"

Cui Cui Changfu in front of him lowered his brow and said nothing, but Li Li Zhouwei understood very well what he wanted to express.

"This suspected unity with the profound, also represents... the true Mount Luoxia power, very likely reached the South Sea from within the sea... and added another Golden Core level power..."

"The power of the profound, how amazing... no wonder the Dragon Clan is so domineering, the control of the South Sea is never as bright and upright as the East Sea, and even some names exist in name only on the sea... no wonder the Dragon Clan treats the noble descendants like slaves, uses divine ability as claws and teeth, but can only live in the East Sea!"

"The fear of the Cui clan... is reflected here."

He didn't speak for a long time, and Cui Cui Changfu whispered:

"As for the things later, my family is not clear. After all, Early Zifu fell one after another, and we are no longer qualified to know higher-level news."

Li Li Zhouwei nodded, sipped his tea, and asked:

"The Cui clan has not been easy for many years. I came here this time, not to ask for any spiritual objects or resources. First, to ask about this origin, and second, to exchange for your clan's cultivation methods."

Cui Cui Changfu obviously had psychological preparation, nodded silently, and replied:

"The inheritance of the clan, inherited from Wei Li and Dongli, was originally something taken out of the palace and the army. Returning the object to its original owner, it cannot be called our own, and we dare not exchange it."

Li Li Zhouwei swept his golden eyes over him and replied:

"I won't treat you badly, you can take it boldly."

"Furthermore."

A little smile appeared on his face, and his golden eyes seemed to be blooming with radiance. The temperament of his whole face suddenly changed from fierce to majestic:

"Your family doesn't accept a penny, worrying about following in the footsteps of predecessors." Even if Cui Cui Changfu was respectful again, this kind of worry was ultimately unavoidable. Li Li Zhouwei mentioned it, and he was speechless. He wanted to open his mouth, but he couldn't answer.

Li Li Zhouwei is added with the Bright Yang destiny, but his repeated emphasis on the horror of the profound just reflects his inner fear of Mount Luoxia. Li Li Zhouwei's words hit his weakness:

"If I really try my best to help, on the day he falls, if the mountain calculates, does my family still have any Dragon King to protect? Is there any adult who can protect us?"

"Taking a step back, the mountain doesn't calculate, does the Dragon Clan not calculate!"

In Cui Cui Changfu's view, Li Li Zhouwei's move was undoubtedly giving his family a way to live. Even if he had the urge to refuse, he couldn't say it, so he could only turn his head and mourn:

"Cui Jueyin, go and take everything from the clan for the adult."

Cui Cui Changfu chose this person exquisitely. Cui Cui Jueyin is half a Li family member, and he hadn't been instructed in advance. Asking him to go down meant taking everything in the clan to show that there was no concealment.

Cui Cui Jueyin listened to the whole scene, his expression looked calm, and he retreated from the hall. Cui Cui Changfu rose from the main hall, bowed deeply, and choked:

"Thank you... adult!"

"Sit down, save yourself from bowing."

Li Li Zhouwei waved his hand and looked at him quietly:

"I have never blamed your Cui family. Situated in Chongzhou, with a million clansmen involved, it cannot be decided by one person. True Person Yangya... I have also seen him in the Cave Heaven. You have achieved this today, and Chongzhou has a master, so you don't have to be restricted by him."

"Your Highness!"

Cui Cui Changfu didn't know how to answer. Fortunately, Cui Cui Jueyin came quickly, bowed before the steps, and presented the three bright jade slips and one stone talisman in his hand.

Cui Cui Changfu hurriedly turned around, supported his sleeves with one hand, and held them up with the other, showing an extremely low posture, introducing:

"This 【Upper Audience Jade Talisman】 is the key to the inheritance of our Chongzhou Cui clan. It records the 【Upper Mansion Bright Audience Scripture】, and it is also the fundamental treasure of our family. It is as high as five grades and has three secret methods... achieving 'Audience at the Heavenly Gate'! It was passed down by the Immortal Mansion in those years."

"It is precisely because of this that the texture of this talisman is extremely high. It is made of the Early Zifu spiritual resource 【Plain Body Precious Jade】. It is a Foundation Establishment magic treasure of extremely high quality, not rotting or breaking, with divine light restrained. One day, if the clan is destroyed, let the juniors carry it out, and it will not be stolen because of the precious treasure, thus losing it..."

Li Li Zhouwei glanced at it, but had some doubts about this use, shook his head, and replied:

"Your family's inheritance is biased... This is not an ordinary Foundation Establishment magic treasure. This is the degradation of a spiritual embryo. If you have the secret method of refining, it is best. If not, spend thirty or fifty years refining it, and it can also be used as a protective treasure."

Cui Cui Changfu's heart was shocked. He didn't expect that his family's treasure had this effect. He was overjoyed, thanked him repeatedly, took this thing into his hand, and said respectfully:

"I offer this to Your Highness!"

Li Li Zhouwei only shook his head. If Li Li Ximing didn't have 【Shi Shi Chuan】, this thing would be suitable for his family. Now it is purely a chicken rib. He just pushed it back and read the 【Upper Mansion Bright Audience Scripture】.

"It is 'Audience at the Heavenly Gate', but it is different from our family's 'Audience at the Heavenly Gate'... it lacks some of the majesty of an emperor, and compared to the 【Golden Hall Radiant Origin Formula】, it lacks the killing power of the frontier, and has more of the immortal style of Immortal Mansion cultivation..."

"As for these secret methods..."

Li Li Zhouwei frowned as he read, secretly sighing in his heart, but was more satisfied:

"No matter what, it is three secret methods. Let the juniors in the family read them to decorate them, and it is enough."

This thing can be handed over to the juniors for verification. It is more suitable for the juniors with matching temperament to cultivate this technique. Li Li Zhouwei threw the jade talisman back into his hand, and Cui Cui Changfu immediately pointed to another jade slip and said:

"This one is the four-grade 【Body-Suppressing Tiger Pass Precious Scripture】." Cui Cui Jueyin immediately raised his brow:

"True Person Can Zhaojing has already used it and exchanged it for a favor for my clan!"

Cui Cui Changfu was slightly taken aback, nodded, moved his hand away, and continued:

"The remaining two... one is the 【Bright Origin Observing Departure Scripture】 left by True Person Yangya when he returned to the island last time. It was exchanged by the True Person from other cultivators, and the source is the Donghuo Cave Heaven... However... it is 'Ever-Bright Steps', not 'Emperor Observing the Origin'."

Li Li Zhouwei took it calmly and glanced at it:

"It's a coincidence. My family also has one, but it's only at the Foundation Establishment level, sent by the Brother Xuan Yue Sect in those years... it was obtained from the Donghuo Cave Heaven."

He raised his brow and said:

"It seems that Yangya didn't take your meal for nothing, he left something behind... It seems he doesn't want to owe you too many favors!"

"Yes... yes..."

Although this sentence was straightforward, it was very much to the point. Cui Cui Changfu was embarrassed, looked at Li Li Zhouwei's face, and continued to introduce the cultivation methods:

"The various paths of Bright Yang, whether the grade is low or high, are ultimately of the same root and origin, nothing more than some differences in divine ability, some higher and some lower in divine ability and magic power, but only 'Emperor Observing the Origin' is different. 'Ever-Bright Steps' is evolved from the 【Table of the Great Ceremony of the Tai Chamber of the Northern Land】 personally written by the Upper Radiant True Person, and its roots are already different."

Li Li Zhouwei was very familiar with this. His family's earliest 【Court Guard】 was also like this. It looked like it was of the same root and origin, but in fact, not only was it worlds apart, but it also had the ability to rule the lower with the upper:

"So that's how it is. It's not impossible that 【Court Guard】 is also evolved from some magic books of the original owner of 'Jade Truth'..."

Cui Cui Changfu stepped forward:

"This last one is my family's secret collection, called 【Sleeve Residence Evolution to Perfection Technique】. It is a technique of the Immortal Mansion, left by the predecessor who drove the treasure ship in those years. He originally borrowed this technique, and when the country had problems, he didn't care about anything and went back, fearing that the cultivation method would be lost, so he left it to the predecessor..."

Li Li Zhouwei finally became interested, took this thing in his hand, and read it carefully:

"Hmm?"

He murmured:

"【Sleeve Residence Technique】?"

"Exactly!"

Cui Cui Changfu showed some envy, and replied:

"This is an ancient cultivation technique, and it is also the immortal path cultivated by those 【people who cultivate Qi and nourish their nature】. You can raise a mansion in your sleeve to accommodate treasures, so you don't have to carry a storage bag. If you cultivate to a high level, you can open your sleeves and hold some living things."

"This technique also describes that if you cultivate to the realm of the person who wrote this technique, other people's techniques, magic light, and even spiritual fire and spiritual water, as long as you open your sleeves, they will all be collected!"

Li Li Zhouwei read it with amazement. This reading lasted for more than ten breaths, and he still couldn't reach the end:

"It's the same as those Qi-cultivation methods... it's surprisingly amazing. I'm afraid ordinary Early Zifu can't read it through. To cultivate to great success... even Great True Persons can't handle it!"

"But the value of this technique is extremely high, and it is of the same type as the 【Great Void Walking Technique】 of the high cultivators in the Northern Cave Heaven. It is something that can be met but not sought, and has a price but no market!"

However, his family has Lu Qi, Li Li Zhouwei is not afraid of the difficulty of this technique, and spent some time remembering it, then nodded and said:

"I don't deceive you because you just ascended to Early Zifu. This is a rare good thing."

Cui Cui Changfu hurriedly said:

"Your Highness is wrong. Even if this thing is placed in my family for a hundred or two hundred years, no one can get started. My family has so many Early Zifu predecessors, and not one has learned it! Since it can't be used, it's not a good thing!"

"Although what you said makes sense, it cannot erase its own value."

Li Li Zhouwei shook his head and replied:

"When my family just ascended to Early Zifu, my uncle was also strapped for cash, and owed a favor. I think your family also can't use it and doesn't dare to use it, so don't drag it here."

He gently turned his hand, took out a jade box from his sleeve, placed it in Cui Cui Changfu's hand, and signaled him to open it.

Cui Cui Changfu opened the jade box somewhat hesitantly, only feeling a burst of Bright Yang Qi rushing to his face. Three miraculous spiritual pills covered in scales were placed in the white, glowing brocade soft cushion, shining brightly, rushing straight into his eyes!

"Early Zifu spiritual pill! A Early Zifu spiritual pill of the Bright Yang path!"

Cui Cui Changfu really didn't know the value of this thing, but Li Li Ximing's alchemy was superb, and the miraculous fluctuations made him greedy, surprised and happy, somewhat terrified, and hurriedly said:

"Absolutely not!"

"No need to say more!"

Li Li Zhouwei waved his hand, took out another jade box from his sleeve, and said seriously:

"My uncle's favor is more than enough to be worth three spiritual pills. I only have one request: one of these three spiritual pills must be used by Cui Jueyin to impact Early Zifu."

Cui Cui Changfu's expression became solemn, he raised his hand to salute, and said seriously:

"To tell you the truth, Cui Jueyin is the one with the greatest hope of breaking through to Early Zifu now. Even if Your Highness didn't mention it, I would definitely keep two of the three pills for the juniors, and one of them is Cui Jueyin's share!"

Li Li Zhouwei nodded and handed over the jade box:

"There is also a cultivation method here, called 【Heavenly Xu Zeng Gold Scripture】, 'Geng Gold' path, also five grades. Qi gathering is a bit troublesome for you, you need to find famous mountain gold mines... but it is already the simplest one. Finding a few large islands can also be found... cultivating more Daoist lineages is also considered an extra way out."

Li Li Zhouwei has many Early Zifu cultivation methods in his hands, but either they are inconvenient to take out, exchanged from others' hands, or Qi gathering is difficult, and it is difficult for the Li family to gather them themselves. Only this one was obtained from elsewhere, Qi gathering is convenient, and it was obtained by many families, and there are not many secrets, just handed over to him!

A Early Zifu cultivation method that is easy to gather Qi is enough to become the treasure of a sect! Not to mention the grade is not low, which can make up for the defects in the family. Cui Cui Changfu's heart was shocked, overjoyed, and couldn't help but reach out to take it, holding it like a treasure. Li Li Zhouwei didn't stop, turned his hand and took out a jade talisman shining with immortal light:

"This is 【Supervising Mountain Pointing Spirit Talisman】, a spiritual treasure of 'Du Wei'! Famous rivers and continents are suitable, and it is also suitable for your Chongzhou, used to offset your family's 【Sleeve Residence Evolution to Perfection Technique】 and 【Bright Origin Observing Departure Scripture】."

As his words fell, mysterious patterns lit up on the talisman, shining the old man's face with light.

"Spiritual treasure?!"

"This is a spiritual treasure!"

Chongzhou is not without spiritual treasures, but they were lost in the sea with the treasure ship. Only a mediocre and ordinary protective treasure was left, and it disappeared in the destruction of the Dongli Sect... It has been many years since this treasure was seen. Once this thing is in hand, the spiritual embryo is refined, and the precious pill is taken, he can immediately stand firm in the early Early Zifu!

"The adult is actually this generous! This is the demeanor of an imperial descendant!"

Cui Cui Changfu had long been dizzy by this series of treasures. He held the cultivation method and treasure in his hand, but his eyes kept glancing at the spiritual treasure, his heart pounding, his lips trembling, unable to say a word of refusal.

Li Li Zhouwei's golden pupils didn't look at him, but looked at Cui Cui Jueyin with a smile, secretly sighing in his heart:

"After this trip, Cui Jueyin will definitely get the greatest respect. His talent, intelligence, and means are not low, and he is often under my command, so he has great hope of breaking through to Early Zifu. One day when he breaks through, this spiritual treasure will eventually reach his hand..."

His gaze lowered, and he smiled secretly:

"It's also considered a thought."
