Chapter 521

He had just finished speaking when the sky outside the middle hall flashed suddenly. Several streams of light flew from north to south, dragging long tail flames in the sky. In the south, five rays of rosy light jumped up, dyeing half the sky red.

The rosy light slowly approached, revealing its true body. It was a cloud ship carrying golden rosy light, with a pair of cloud-like wings inserted on both sides, breaking through layers of clouds and mist, with a crowd of figures standing on it.

"Rosy cloud ship..."

Li Xizhi frowned and took a look. The characters on the token at his waist lit up one by one. His face was solemn, looking heavily at the sky.

The figures on the rosy cloud ship were scattered. Many brilliance flew from the north. Li Xizhi comforted his brothers and rode the rosy light up. Clouds and mist lingered, and he kept approaching the cloud ship.

The rosy light in his hand flashed, and he operated the token. Someone on the ship immediately rode the wind and approached. The face was a bit familiar. After looking carefully, he also recognized Li Xizhi.

This person was short and fat, a bit wealthy, and arrived in front of Li Xizhi, opening his mouth:

"Fellow Daoist..."

Only then did he recognize Li Xizhi's cultivation, immediately changed his tone, piled up a face full of smiles, and said respectfully:

"Oh my, greetings, Senior! Not seen for so many years... Senior has already broken through to Foundation Establishment!"

"So it is you!"

The person before Li Xizhi's eyes was Yu Fuyu of Lingdou Peak. Years ago, Li Xizhi was only at Qi Refining, wanting to borrow the miscellaneous affairs to go home on the way, so he found this person to exchange miscellaneous affairs.

Although this person was a member of the Yu family, he had long broken with the Yu family, lived a hard life, was alone, and was even more afraid of Li Xizhi's background, so he was very diligent:

"Senior's cultivation is truly divine speed!"

Although Li Xizhi's cultivation was fast, he couldn't even compare to his own younger brother. In the sect, he could only be considered upper-middle, so he didn't care about his flattery and asked:

"What is going on?"

Yu Fuyu hurriedly said:

"Senior, Xiuyue has sealed the mountain, retreated all the way into the mountain, and the garrison cultivators from northern Xu State to the East Sea line have all retreated, completely ignoring it."

"Thus, a large piece of Release cultivators in the north of Yue State, and demon cultivators who fled over year after year, all lost supervision and have already fought into Xu State!"

He appeared radiant, only saying:

"Xiuyue sealed it like this, simply throwing away the past tacit understanding. The nine sea entrances didn't say a word, all were left unguarded. The road from the East Sea to Xu State was smooth. Now I don't know what it has become chaotic."

He had a pitiful appearance:

"Pity this Xu State... it just recovered from the turmoil in these decades and had some improvement. Now it is going to fall into a sea of blood again."

Li Xizhi listened with unease, but gradually could understand the scene before him, and asked:

"So the sect took action?"

"Exactly!"

Yu Fuyu said:

"Not only my Qingchi, but even the Jin Yu Sect took action."

Li Xizhi secretly calculated the situation and sighed:

"This matter is big! I wonder if any Zifu took action? Has anyone in the sect broken through to Zifu?"

"Never seen!"

Yu Fuyu nodded repeatedly and said hurriedly:

"There are quite a few seniors who broke through but fell. Many are old seniors who have been famous for a long time, such as 【Wall Water Cinnabar】 Li Encheng, 【Golden Mysterious Eagle】 Mo Chen..."

Li Xizhi heard this, his heart skipped a beat, secretly pondering:

'Li Encheng really failed... sigh... things I knew early on...'

Although he had thoughts in his heart, there was no change on his face, and he was still in the appearance of listening attentively, so the old man before him didn't notice at all, only saying repeatedly:

"We are just going to Xu State first. The sect has already summoned all the peak masters, and each peak has instructions. Perhaps the people invited to Senior are already on the way."

Li Xizhi nodded slightly, watching the cloud ship about to enter the territory of Xu State, riding the wind and wanting to leave. This Yu Fuyu was anxious, only saying:

"Senior! My Lingdou Peak and... and Qingsui have a great friendship years ago! My peak's uncle, Yu Yuxie of the clan... is a close friend of Senior Si Yuanbai..."

"I am not good at fighting..."

Li Xizhi was slightly stunned and understood.

'It seems that everyone on this cloud ship is an old man who is waiting to die in the sect... This time sent to Xu State, they are the first to bear the brunt... I'm afraid there will be no good end, no wonder they are so diligent.'

Looking at Yu Fuyu's appearance as if he was about to shed tears, Li Xizhi only said softly:

"This matter is not something I can handle just by saying it. I still need to return to the sect first, and then inquire carefully. If I can help Fellow Daoist find a leisurely position, then I will try to help."

He said these words. Yu Fuyu obviously didn't believe him very much, only had time to say two thanks, and Li Xizhi had already disappeared riding the rosy light, leaving Yu Fuyu standing blankly.

After a while, he saw a man wearing white-golden armor walk out of the cabin, holding a long halberd in his hand, very majestic. His gaze scanned the circle, pointed at two people, and said softly:

"You... you... follow me!"

'Tang Shedu!'

Yu Fuyu looked at the hand pointing at him, and his heart felt cold.

Li Xizhi rode the wind down. A crowd of brothers were waiting for him in the hall. Seeing his solemn face, they looked at each other. Li Xizhi told the news in a low voice. Li Xijun at the head took out the map to look.

Xu State is located between Wu, Yue, and Zhao states. The big river passes through it, bordering Xiuyue, Jin Yu, Qingchi, and even many Release Dao paths. And the junction of Qingchi and Xu State is exactly Wangyue Lake.

Xiuyue has now contracted its power, almost spitting out more than half of Xu State, leaving the lonely Tangjin Sect in it. The north of Yue State has almost become a blank space. The Xuanyue Sect bordering the East Sea is a wilderness once it goes ashore, connecting to the entire Xu State, which will become a place of turmoil.

This area is extremely large, almost the size of the Qingchi Sect's sphere of influence, right next to Wangyue Lake and the north of the Xiao family.

Li Xijun looked carefully, his face was not good-looking, his heart was heavy, and he said softly:

"I'm afraid it can't be considered a good thing."

The Li family and the Xiao family have become the barrier of Qingchi. In the turmoil that follows, they will definitely not be spared. What's more, their family is originally a blood feud with the Release cultivators. Xiuyue has let go like this, and the Release cultivators can successfully go south.

The people sitting there obviously thought of these, silent. Li Xizhi sighed and reminded:

"This matter is not simple. Qingchi will definitely conscript all families to contribute, going to Xu State together... My family cannot be less."

Li Xizhi appeared very worried and said softly:

"Besides this, I'm afraid there is some big event... The Three Sects and Seven Gates are restless, I'm afraid it won't be a piece of peace..."

This elegant man shook his head lightly and said warmly:

"Chaotic times are coming..."

He paused, hesitated for a moment, and said softly:

"There is news that Li Encheng has passed away."

Li Encheng was originally a connection the Li family made years ago. He thought it would come in handy when the time came, but who knew that things were unpredictable. At the moment of passing away, there was no chance to use him.

The Li family folded quite a few things into it. Finally, when breaking through, the Li family also sent a batch of spiritual objects to him. Now that this news came, these things were considered to have been thrown into the water.

Li Xuanxuan listened carefully and said in a low voice:

"It doesn't count as anything... at least he gave me a Suiyuan Cinnabar. No matter how you calculate it, it won't be eating my family's for nothing."

Li Xizhi was busy returning to the sect to inquire about the situation, so he didn't say much, cupped his hands to several people, and said softly:

"Pay attention at home, wait for my letter."

Li Qinghong rode the thunder and flew for a while, discovering that the seawater under her feet was falling very slowly. If she didn't observe carefully, it would be difficult to see the seawater slowly decreasing.

"Mostly the Dragon-kin took action. After all, according to the agreement, the things under the sea all belong to the dragon. The seawater slowly recedes like this, and in ten days or half a month, I don't know how many things will be lost."

She remembered the spiritual atmosphere of 【Water Falling and Thunder Rising】 in the East Sea again, thinking it was interesting. She originally thought it was falling water, but now the seawater has really fallen, and the thunder is even more intense, rumbling in the sky.

Li Qinghong rode the thunder all the way. Qunyi Strait already appeared before her. The islands that were originally fragmented and relied on one or two people to stand on were now floating out because of the seawater falling, revealing large areas of beach.

Going east for another thousand miles, she could vaguely see the shadow of the 【Shiji】 island in the Qunyi Strait, and a large island appeared before her.

This island was topped with a golden-red brilliance array, shining brightly. Because of the land vacated by the seawater falling, a crowd of fishermen walked back and forth, dragging brown nets, vaguely making laughter.

This laughter quickly extinguished because of the revelation of her Dharma light and disappeared. These mortals knelt down one after another. Before Li Qinghong could say much, she saw a golden-white brilliance fly over quickly.

It was a woman, about seventeen or eighteen years old, still appearing very immature, holding a small golden circle in her hand, riding the wind over, looking at her with some vigilance, and asked:

"Senior... are you here to find someone or...?"

Li Qinghong saw that she was very vigilant, so she could only say softly:

"This humble one is Li Qinghong, a cultivator from the sea. This time I am here to... inquire about some treasure news."

"Cultivator from the sea..."

These words made the woman's eyebrows relax slightly, and she said respectfully:

"Junior Cui Wanqing, greetings, Senior!"

Cui Wanqing paused, with some doubts, and asked:

"Senior... which Li family is it?"

Li Qinghong paused slightly and replied:

"Wangyue Li family."

Cui Wanqing repeated these four words back and forth, led her to fall onto the island, thought for a moment, and muttered:

"I heard that there is a big swamp in the sea, called Wangyue... is it this swamp?"

Li Qinghong nodded and replied softly:

"Not bad. Now this swamp has withered, leaving only one lake. My family cultivates by the lake."

Cui Wanqing nodded thoughtfully and said softly:

"That's true. After all, there is no one on the fruit position of the water mansion, so it is normal for the water swamp to wither."

Once these words came out, it could be seen that she was someone with inheritance. Li Qinghong followed her down and sat in the courtyard. Cui Wanqing went to invite the elders.

After all, this is the East Sea, and everyone has to guard against each other. Li Qinghong naturally would not bump into someone else's array without a head. The main hall chosen by Cui Wanqing was specifically used to meet foreign guests on the island, built outside the array.

Before long, an old man came up before the courtyard, solemn with white beard, upright posture, wearing light blue robes, tall, and said in a low voice:

"This humble one is Cui Changfu of Chongzhou Island, greetings, Fellow Daoist."

This old man looked very old, with Foundation Establishment late stage cultivation, majestic and solemn, looking up and down, his gaze stopped on the jade bottle at Li Qinghong's waist.

"Wangyue Lake Li Qinghong."

Li Qinghong felt that this person was difficult to handle, so she heard the old man sigh:

"Is it the Wei Li who came to find me."

His tone was very strange. Li Qinghong didn't know how to answer for a while, shook her head lightly, and the old man said:

"Please take a look at the Dharma bottle."

Li Qinghong hesitated, took it down, fearing that this person would see the magic treasure and have evil intentions, wanting to take this thing from her hand, and remained silent for a while.

Cui Changfu paused slightly, understood, and said softly:

"Chongzhou Cui family is now under the protection of the Dragon-kin, and can be considered a not-so-small force, still having to talk about face... I, Cui Changfu, also have some reputation in this sea area... not to the point of taking action for a Foundation Establishment magic treasure."

"What's more... I see the appearance of Fellow Daoist, your clan in the sea is probably not a small force that is weak and alone..."

Li Qinghong secretly looked at the terrain and estimated the distance from the array. If this person suddenly attacked, with her speed of riding the thunder, no matter if she could fight or not, escaping was still no problem, so she felt slightly relieved.

She nodded, said a few polite scene words, handed the magic treasure over lightly. Cui Changfu just took it and weighed it twice, let this magic treasure restrain its brilliance, and turned it upside down.

The purple crack-like patterns slowly restrained their colors, and the ancient seal characters 【Wei State Li Family Li Qianyuan】 were obvious. Cui Wanqing gave a low ah, and said in shock:

"Wei Taizu Li Qianyuan!"

The two's expressions were very complicated, but this sentence fell into Li Qinghong's ears like a thunder on the ground. She was stunned for a full breath:

"Wei Taizu?"

Li Qinghong naturally knew that her family's mysterious bottle was not simple, and also knew that it was a magic treasure of the Wei Li cultivators years ago, but she didn't expect the origin to be so big.

Cui Changfu returned it, the old man looked at it, and said softly:

"But Wei Di is what kind of character, it wouldn't be used for this kind of Foundation Establishment magic treasure. Whether this thing is true or false, it still needs to be questioned."

"After all, I have never heard that Wei Di had a bottle-shaped magic treasure. Either it was something he used in his early years, or it was a magic treasure imitated by later generations,"

Once he said this, Li Qinghong immediately breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the pressure on her body went away a lot:

'Those True Persons and True Monarchs... which one is simple? His things inexplicably flowed into my hands, that must be laying out a layout... although this True Monarch has fallen for many years, who can say for sure about True Monarch immortal methods?'

On the contrary, feeling that this thing in her hand was a fake made Li Qinghong feel more relaxed, nodded slightly, and put it back into her sleeve. This Cui Changfu was also observing her, staring at her eyebrows and eyes carefully.

Cui Changfu had stood in the East Sea for so many years, naturally not a simple character. He had been on guard in his heart long ago, secretly saying:

"After all, as long as there is some family inheritance... who doesn't know the relationship between my Cui family ancestors and Wei Li? The magic treasure worn by this woman is too obvious... must guard against being deliberately disguised as Wei Li, coming to earn me!"

But watching a series of subtle changes in her expression, Cui Changfu was not sure, and decided to wait first, asking:

"I don't know why Fellow Daoist came... for what matter?"

Li Qinghong nodded, and didn't say much to him, directly saying:

"I heard that Senior has cultivated Mingyang for generations, and my family lacks a Mingyang treasure... came to your place to inquire."

Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, there should be an extra chapter.
