Chapter 381

Yang Xiaoer smiled, moved a step closer quietly, and replied:

"Our ancestor also praised him, saying that he was heroic and kind... achieving Foundation Establishment in just thirty years, and the four sons he taught were all talents..."

Yang Xiaoer's tone was respectful, perhaps because of the influence of her beloved, she had a lot of goodwill toward the Li family's seniors, but Li Xizhi was stunned in his heart and thought to himself:

"How is that possible!! This... this has been nearly a hundred years, and my ancestor was clearly just a mortal! How could Yang Tianya remember... what does this mean!"

Li Xizhi had also read the internal history, and his mind was clear:

'Not to mention that saying the High Ancestor was heroic is not an exaggeration... where did the kindness come from?! Calling him cunning and decisive is already an exaggeration. How many kind people are there in my family... Yang Tianya... Yang Tianya!'

After many thoughts turned in his heart, Li Xizhi just smiled and said:

"Naturally, not as good as Ancestor Tianya... Ancestor's breakthrough this time, he must be at the peak of Foundation Establishment when he leaves seclusion, and the Zifu is in sight!"

"It's not that easy."

Yang Xiaoer muttered, looked into the distance, and said softly:

"The Li Xia immortal clan is here."

Li Xizhi followed her gaze and saw a large gray boat in the sky. Standing at the very front was a middle-aged man with slightly narrow eyes, wearing a snow-white fox fur, standing quietly in the wind.

"【Cui Yushan Old Man】, Xiao Yongling!"

Xiao Yongling's aura was obscure, and he looked unremarkable, but he was admired and looked up to by everyone. He fought three Foundation Establishment demonic cultivators alone in the Yuyuan market, preserved the most prosperous hub for the Xiao family, and became famous in the Yue Kingdom.

In this battle, Xiao Yongling was seriously injured. Fortunately, the Xiao family had Xiao Yuansi, and many precious medicines and elixirs were used, which not only saved him but also turned a misfortune into a blessing, greatly increasing his strength.

At this moment, he was standing quietly at the front of the boat, looking back as if he felt something, and nodded to Li Xizhi with a light smile.

Li Xizhi hurriedly returned the salute, and Yang Xiaoer followed suit, secretly thinking:

"It is rumored that 【Cui Yushan Old Man】 and 【Moon Gate Sword】 knew each other when they were humble and were close friends. It is really so!"

The two waited for a while, and the cultivators of the Three Sects and Seven Gates all arrived. True Person Element and True Person Autumn Water from the Grand Void stepped out into the air, and the colorful light of divine abilities rose slowly. Gaps appeared in the sky above Dongli Mountain, and everyone looked inside, vaguely able to see collapsed pavilions and mountain peaks.

The disciples of the Three Sects and Seven Gates filed in and disappeared into the sky. Rich spiritual energy gushed out, and the spiritual energy of the entire Dongli Mountain flourished. Streams of spiritual energy descended from the Grand Void, spiritual water surged, and spiritual fire was manic. Rogue cultivators and demonic cultivators who had been dormant for a long time fought fiercely in the mountains.

After a full half-hour, earth, stone, and sand fell from the sky, mixed with many pavilions and towers, smashing the ground into a mess. The rogue cultivators below burst into cheers.

"【East-Fire Grotto-Heaven】 has fallen into the sea!"

Qingdu Peak.

Li Yuanjiao rode the wind out. A light rain was falling on Wangyue Lake because of his breakthrough. The lake was misty, and he rode the wind through it, feeling free and happy.

Foundation Establishment cultivators were noble, and anyone who broke through would be full of joy. Li Yuanjiao had not been so proud for many years. He rode the wind over the Fei family, looked at the bright stars in the sky, and had already left the Yue Kingdom and arrived in the Xu Kingdom.

This place was the territory of the Xiuyue Sect and was very safe. If he passed this place and arrived at the vast wilderness and hills, it would be much more dangerous. Ordinary cultivators did not often take this path, but the Dongli Mountain area was too dangerous, so Li Yuanjiao would rather take a detour.

The night was thick, and he did not restrain his magical power, secretly hoping to run into some demonic cultivators and rogue cultivators who were robbing houses to enrich his empty storage bag.

This place was desolate, and Li Yuanjiao carried a magical mirror, so he naturally got what he wanted.

The mountain gate of the Profound Heaven Gate was as huge as a dormant giant bear in the morning light, making people look at it with awe. Li Yuanjiao just thought of True Person Changxi moving mountains all the way from the Xu Kingdom, and a bit of hope for the Zifu realm could not help but rise in his heart:

'How many more years will my family have to hibernate before we can have such a figure.'

He was just about to ride the wind around the mountain, but the people of the Profound Heaven Gate were agile. A female cultivator had already risen on the wind, wearing yellow-colored magical robes, stopped in front of Li Yuanjiao, cupped her hands, and said softly:

"Profound Heaven Kong Tingyun, I have met you, Fellow Daoist. I wonder which sect or faction's Peak Master you are?"

This woman had excellent vision and saw at a glance that the 【Green Ruler Sword】 behind Li Yuanjiao was extraordinary. Li Yuanjiao had also been taught 【Qi Travel Swallowing Spirit】, and with the blessing, he rode the clouds and mist, which was quite magical, so she thought he was a cultivator of the Three Sects and Seven Gates.

Li Yuanjiao cupped his hands slightly and said in a deep voice:

"I am Li Yuanjiao of the Lijing Li family. I have met you, Fellow Daoist!"

"So it is a sword immortal family."

Kong Tingyun praised, and said softly:

"I don't know what advice you have for coming to our sect's territory... if there is anything I can do, Tingyun will definitely not refuse."

His own plans were hard to say, so Li Yuanjiao just replied:

"I am going to the mouth of the Great River... I wonder if Profound Heaven can make it convenient..."

Kong Tingyun heard his words, laughed, her eyes moved slightly, and she reminded:

"If Brother Jiao came for the treasures of Dongli, I'm afraid you will have made the trip in vain!"

"Hmm?"

His own plans were pointed out in one word, but Li Yuanjiao did not change his expression and smiled:

"What do you mean?"

Kong Tingyun replied:

"Brother Jiao is a smart person, thinking of my four passages to the sea in Profound Heaven, but pockets have already been set up in each territory. Wherever a rogue cultivator falls, it is the item of that sect."

"Not only my four passages in Profound Heaven, but even the Sword Sect, Red Reef, and Xueji passages have all set up ambushes, and not a single rogue cultivator can run out."

Kong Tingyun said softly and emphasized:

"The Dongli Sect left a lot of things, and there are even the magic treasures and orthodoxy of True Person Cui Mu of Dongli. Even if it rots, it must rot in the belly of our Yue Kingdom. It is absolutely impossible to flow into the East Sea!"

"Two groups of people have already come, and they have all been persuaded to leave by our Profound Heaven..."

Li Yuanjiao heard this news, laughed at himself, and replied:

"There are too many smart people in the world, making small thoughts look ridiculous."

Kong Tingyun saw that he was not ashamed or annoyed, added a bit of goodwill in her heart, smiled slightly, and comforted:

"The matter is secret, and Tingyun shouldn't say too much, but the East-Fire Grotto-Heaven is being watched by big figures, so naturally, everything is correct. Brother Jiao is unaware..."

"Qingchi set up the 【Demonstrating Secret Proof of Clarity and Profound Mystery Formation】 in Dongli long ago. Don't look at the rogue cultivators and demonic cultivators jumping happily; what they touched, who they saw, and their tracks within three days of leaving Dongli are all clear... Ordinary things won't be managed, but they won't let a little bit of Zifu-level things leak out..."

Li Yuanjiao felt fear in his heart and nodded slightly, but Kong Tingyun thought he already knew this, and suddenly realized:

"I forgot about the relationship between Xiao and Li, and played with small cleverness!"

Li Yuanjiao comforted her repeatedly, and Kong Tingyun glanced at him, especially his Foundation Establishment magic weapon, and hesitated:

"Tingyun has a small matter here, maybe I have to trouble Brother Jiao..."

"Please speak..."

Li Yuanjiao responded, and Kong Tingyun said:

"Tingyun guarded one of the sea entrances in her early years and once discovered a Foundation Establishment monster in the salty lake at the entrance. I suffered from insufficient strength... it was difficult to remove... My branch is Yunyue Peak, and I am the only one who is Foundation Establishment. Can I hire Brother Jiao to take action..."

Li Yuanjiao became suspicious and smiled:

"Your sect also has many Foundation Establishment cultivators, why don't you..."

Kong Tingyun pursed her lips and replied:

"There are many factions in the sect, and Tingyun is not easy to say... but your clan must not be a harmonious faction... Tingyun has always stayed out of it and doesn't want to become a supporter of a certain peak..."

Li Yuanjiao's confusion was slightly relieved, but he held a magical mirror, his confidence was still sufficient, and the reputation of the Profound Heaven Gate had always been good, so he asked:

"What kind of monster is it?"

Kong Tingyun replied:

"Located at the bottom of the salty lake, it is a hook snake. It lost to the green water dragon of the waves island in the sea, and sneaked into the lake... Tingyun wants to take the double hooks on the snake's tail."

Li Yuanjiao nodded and smiled:

"Li does have time to take action, but I have to visit an old friend on the road first, and I have to postpone it."

Kong Tingyun nodded slightly and said softly:

"As you wish, Tingyun will wait for you, Fellow Daoist, in Profound Heaven."

Li Yuanjiao chatted with her casually, rode the wind and left. Kong Tingyun watched him leave the territory of Profound Heaven, watched him disappear into the sky, stopped in the clouds, and smiled:

"A very suspicious character."

Li Yuanjiao left the Shanjie Prefecture of the Profound Heaven Gate, found a desolate mountain in a remote place in the wilderness, landed, was reluctant to use the Green Ruler Sword, urged his magical power to hit a sloppy cave, set up a small Embryonic Breath formation, and practiced silently.

He had no old friends in the north of Yue, it was nothing more than reminding Kong Tingyun that someone knew his whereabouts, so that he would not have no traces to look for if he died. At the moment, he sat in the cave and secretly said:

'The sea entrance is occupied by the Profound Heaven Gate, can't I intercept it halfway? Although it is not as crowded as the sea entrance, it is not bad to get one or two.'

"Just practice for a while on this desolate mountain path, and run into one or two passing demonic cultivators and rogue cultivators... just kill the demonic cultivators with one palm, and look at the rogue cultivators again."

The scope of the Immortal Mirror was now wide enough to cover a prefecture, not only covering the large area from Yufu Prefecture to Shanjie Prefecture, but also seeing the border city of Yufu Prefecture and half of Shanjie Prefecture clearly.

Li Yuanjiao just swept, and three rays of magical light and seven rays of blood light sneaking forward in the chaotic mountains of the wilderness appeared, immediately broke through the barrier, and first looked for the nearest demonic cultivator to fly.

Just after crossing a mountain, there were two demonic cultivators on the ground flying carefully, originally hiding their figures and restraining their aura, but they were exposed in front of the Immortal Mirror.

'One in the late stage of Qi Refining, one in the early stage of Qi Refining.'

Li Yuanjiao was not polite, restrained his aura and approached quickly, holding a sword in his hand, and when he reached the opponent's spiritual sense range, he immediately broke out and used the Yuehe Turbulent Step to hit it.

This demonic cultivator only had time to call out "Who?!", Li Yuanjiao had already arrived in front of him. The demonic cultivator was a middle-aged man, holding a skull magic weapon in his hand, and was shocked:

"Foundation Establishment cultivator?!"

The blue-gray long dragon on Li Yuanjiao's body jumped up, fiercely pounced on the face of the female cultivator in the early stage of Qi Refining, and the Green Ruler Sword in his body had already jumped out, slashing a blue-white sword light, shining the person into a loss of soul.

"Clang!"

The "Moon Gate Sword Canon" was a killing move as soon as it was released, plus a dignified Foundation Establishment cultivator ambushing, this person did not pinch a spell, perhaps there were magic weapons in the storage bag that were not taken out, and in an instant, the head flew up and the body exploded.

Li Yuanjiao caught his storage bag in a rain of blood, stepped forward and kicked his head to explode, threw a fire spell at will, this person did not even use a life-saving spell, and turned into ashes.

Looking back, the female demonic cultivator had already been swallowed for more than half of her body, her face was blue and white, and she was dead. Li Yuanjiao frowned, urged the Immortal Foundation to let this dragon snake spit out the female cultivator, took the storage bag on her body, and destroyed the corpse with a spell.

'These two things look similar, they should be father and daughter.'

The demonic cultivator's skull magic weapon was cut off by his sword, and resentment and blood energy continued to gush out. Li Yuanjiao put it away at will, and flew to the next blood light without stopping.

When he landed beside another blood light, there was no one in front of him, clearly there was a demonic cultivator under the exploration of the Immortal Mirror, and he was happy at the moment:

"Hidden magic weapon?!"

This demonic cultivator was also smart. As soon as Li Yuanjiao's voice fell, he immediately rode the wind, threw a dark-patterned jade bottle in his hand, and threw it fiercely at the ground in the distance. The other sleeve shook, and threw a blood-colored talisman.

Li Yuanjiao sneered, the blue-gray dragon snake on his body flew out, rolled up the dark-patterned jade bottle on the ground, waved his sleeve to explode the blood-colored talisman, and chased after the wind.

This demonic cultivator was terrified, and took out a jade bottle again, shouting:

"Senior! This is 【Profound Yang Li Fire】!"

Immediately, he slapped the jade bottle, fell to the ground, and threw the storage bag at the same time, not daring to drag on and let Li Yuanjiao draw his sword, and the two hands closed, pinching a spell.

'Profound Yang Li Fire!'

Li Yuanjiao took the jade bottle with one hand and drew his sword with the other. This demonic cultivator had already used a secret technique. His head and facial features had turned into blood. The surging blood flames wrapped around that white, ball-like head, and flew away at a speed exceeding Qi Refining.

"Clang!"

The blue-white Moon Gate sword arc had already roared, exploding the head, and the blood flames falling all over the ground burned into black smoke before landing, making a lot of noise.

'Ruthless enough... if it were another Foundation Establishment early stage, you would have really run away!'

Li Yuanjiao couldn't help but feel sorry for his series of decisive operations. If it weren't for his sword being at its peak, he would have really missed a little bit and let him run away.

"Damn!"

Dragged by him like this, under the illumination of the Immortal Mirror, the remaining demonic cultivators and rogue cultivators had long since walked away cleanly. Li Yuanjiao had to land and pick up his storage bag, and put it in his arms first.

Not daring to delay, he immediately rode the wind, searched for a while according to the route estimated by the previous few cultivators, and really saw a rogue cultivator flying carefully riding the wind.

"Good."

Li Yuanjiao was happy in his heart, his face suddenly became blurred with clouds and mist, landed in front of the person, and said impolitely:

"Storage bag!"

This rogue cultivator jumped up from the ground like a frightened bird. His spiritual sense swept, and his legs were paralyzed on the ground. He untied the storage bag around his waist and said miserably:

"Senior, spare my life, Senior, spare my life! The little one's things are all here!"

Li Yuanjiao saw his tone was weak, but his hand supporting the ground was steady, sneered, took the storage bag and looked at it, and said hoarsely:

"What kind of mediocre person can kill out of Dongli Mountain? Don't pretend... it's nothing more than being afraid that I will kill you."

This rogue cultivator's heart skipped a beat, and he just kowtowed repeatedly. Li Yuanjiao looked into the storage bag, and this person only took a 【Runyang Method】, which was the Dongli Sect's spell and a 【Fire Sha Qi】, and there was nothing else, and the rest were just miscellaneous things of rogue cultivators.
