Chapter 548

Tang Shedu, the 【Long Sky Halberd】 on the other side, although he had some grudges with him and prided himself on his strength being not much worse than his, was happy to stir up some trouble and was unwilling to come forward at this time. He tilted his head to look at Yu Su, the 【Brocade Crow Mole】, on the side.

Ning Heyuan just continued: "Bai Xiang Valley was broken. The surrounding Qunyuan Mountain, Nu Mountain, and other places were looted. A large number of demonic cultivators went south, flooding into the wilderness to Xianhu, and south to the Xiao family in Li Xia County, and the areas of Yu Mountain and Yu Yuan."

"The cultivators of Bai Xiang Valley failed to resist and suffered heavy losses. Li Xizhi of Changtian Peak fled to Chendu Mountain, Yu Yuwei of Panqi Peak fled to Xianhu, and Quan Yi of Lenghe Peak was killed by Tuoba Zhongyuan, his body dying and his Dao disappearing. The rest of the cultivators were not spared."

After he finished reading the news, everyone discussed it. Li Xuanfeng paused. There was no anger, but he suddenly said: "Xianhu is a bit far... Bai Xiang Valley is more than a thousand miles away from Chendu Mountain. Several formations in between were intact. Why did they escape only after reaching such a far place?"

Ning Heyuan understood that his brother-in-law was asking what he already knew. Tang Shedu on the side sneered. Seeing that Tang Shedu was about to interrupt, he hurriedly answered first:

"The two peak masters passed through several passes, but the cultivators were afraid of Tuoba Zhongyuan's might and did not dare to come out of the passes to welcome them..."

Li Xuanfeng nodded and said in a deep voice very naturally: "The cultivators lost Bai Xiang Valley, so they should naturally be punished... It's just a pity that the casualties were heavy, and few people can be found."

"The two peak masters are both outstanding figures in Foundation Establishment. Being able to escape with their lives while being chased by a group of demonic cultivators is already good. The other cultivators could not enter the formation and all died on the road."

Li Xuanfeng's words made the expressions of the cultivators different. Chi Zhiyan had a headache. How could he not hear his meaning? Seeing that the cultivators were all hesitant, he just comforted them in a low voice: "Xuanfeng is right... The guards of the passes should also be punished. The top priority... is to send people to Bai Xiang Valley to rebuild the formation."

He did not mention the ruins that fell near Bai Xiang Valley at all. Presumably, they had already been divided up in the Grand Void. Qingchi had just lost a big battle, and their share was much smaller. It was barely enough to supply the Chi family, and there was not enough to take out and share with everyone.

As soon as these words came out, Tang Shedu and others who were watching coldly couldn't sit still. Several of them were old cultivators over a hundred years old. By now, they could vaguely feel the changes in victory and defeat in this big game of chess.

In the current situation, they naturally had no share in the ruins near Bai Xiang Valley. Going to that place would be offending the Tuoba family for nothing. Moreover, who knew how many methods Tuoba Zhongyuan had, and whether they would lose their own lives?

Li Xuanfeng's injuries had not healed, and nine times out of ten, he would pick people from these famous cultivators to go. And Tang Shedu was the most famous one, not only famous for many years but also taught by Yuanwu personally...

'Tuoba Zhongyuan... who is willing to deal with him? It's a thankless task, and it will also offend the Tuoba family...'

Chi Zhiyan looked around and asked as expected:

"Senior Shedu?"

Tang Shedu had no choice but to cough and stand out. But now, where did he have any room for tact? He could only say in a low voice:

"Yuanwu Peak is currently short of manpower. This old man alone cannot sustain it..."

Chi Zhiyan just looked among the crowd and said softly: "Fellow Daoist Linggu..."

A middle-aged man stood out from the crowd and bowed in response. He had an ordinary appearance, with two bulging gourds tied to his waist, and his rattan armor emitted magic light. He was Linggu Rao of the Linggu family in Jiachuan. In previous years, he had always guarded the South Sea for Qingchi and was known as the 【Rao-Child Scorpion】.

Linggu Rao was also a famous cultivator a hundred years ago, and his father, Linggu Xia, was even more famous. It was just that Linggu Rao had always guarded the South Sea and rarely returned to the sea. After a hundred years, few people heard of his name.

Chi Zhiyan was about to give orders when he suddenly paused. He saw the Grand Void in front of him break open, and a golden spell jumped out, falling into his palm.

Chi Zhiyan closed his eyes for a breath, carefully experiencing the meaning, and immediately laughed out loud. When he opened his eyes again, he was full of joy and laughed: "I must let all fellow Daoists know that Tuoba Zhongyuan had his dharma clothes torn and his dharma body shattered, dying violently in Bai Xiang Valley! Only a wisp of soul remains, presumably having returned to 【Shengle Heaven】 to be reincarnated!"

Everyone was caught off guard and was stunned when they heard it. Tang Shedu was even more relieved. People are in high spirits when they have happy events, let alone being unable to suppress their curiosity. He just asked: "Subordinate congratulates Lord! I don't know which high cultivator killed him."

Chi Zhiyan laughed and replied:

"It is the Dragon Clan of the East Sea! Perhaps some dragon child was attracted by the situation in the Xu Kingdom. I don't know how they crossed ten thousand miles and entered the sea directly."

"The Xu Kingdom is so vast, yet they happened to run into Tuoba Zhongyuan! How could the dragon species let him go after seeing the Tuoba family? They beat him to death alive, and even his natal seal was snatched away. Perhaps it was put in the dragon species' palace for decoration!"

Chi Zhiyan was in a very happy mood. He didn't think it was a big deal to watch the fun and mocked a few words slightly. Ning Heyuan hurriedly flattered his words and said:

"Congratulations Lord!"

He said with a smile:

"Tuoba Xuantan killed the seventh son of the True Chi, Dongfang Tianye, in order to create his 【Hehou Mysterious Pearl】 and 【Wall Water Treasure Pill】. The dragon species hated him to the extreme... Now that they can catch someone from the Tuoba family, it is naturally not too much to skin them and pull their tendons."

Chi Zhiyan nodded with a smile. With Tuoba Zhongyuan dead, the Tuoba family would nine times out of ten not dare to stay. The threat from the east was naturally solved. How could he not be proud?

At the moment, he was in the mood to say slowly: "Everyone should still call him 【Heavenly Accomplished Deep Qi Su Xuan True Lord】 or Emperor Wu of Liang... After all, he is also at the True Lord level. Although his body has died and his Dao has disappeared, calling him by his name directly will inevitably damage one's life."

On the surface, he chatted with everyone about the stories of the Liang Dynasty, but inwardly he secretly guessed: "True Person Yuanxiu suddenly used this rune to answer me this time, which is obviously not within expectations. Perhaps this move by the dragon species was very clever, exceeding the expectations of a group of Zifu and Maha..."

"It's also strange, and the rules of each family are still there. It is definitely not a Zifu taking action..."

He was lost in thought and gradually stopped answering. Everyone retreated one after another, and the main hall gradually became empty.

Ning Heyuan and Li Xuanfeng returned to the cave mansion all the way, each with their own thoughts. Ning Heyuan asked first:

"How is brother-in-law's injury now?"

Li Xuanfeng was concerned about Li Xizhi's injury but found it difficult to ask more. He waved his hand and replied: "I took the treasure medicine sent over, and the effect is very good. Don't worry."

Li Xuanfeng was summoned by the Zifu this time because of his injury, and the Ning family also personally took out treasure medicine to treat his injuries. It was a 【Dream Marsh Grass】, which was much more precious than the 【Huashang Fruit】 that Li Tongya had back then.

Li Xuanfeng took this medicine, and his face looked several years younger. Ning Heyuan could see it and felt much more relieved. He said in a deep voice:

"Brother-in-law, there is something tricky about Tuoba Zhongyuan!"

Li Xuanfeng naturally understood and just said in a deep voice:

"Of course there is something tricky... Perhaps even the Zifu didn't guess it."

Ning Heyuan nodded and said in a low voice: "The spiritual energy in the Xu Kingdom is chaotic now, and the Grand Void is full of Zifu and Maha. No matter what, it cannot be calculated clearly! This led to the game of the Zifu... But how did Tuoba Zhongyuan run directly into the dragon species?"

"Moreover, Shengle Heaven is not an ordinary force. There must be Tuoba family demons in the Grand Void. Although the Grand Void of the Xu Kingdom cannot see the present world clearly now, can't they always sense the strength of their own juniors' vitality?"

Li Xuanfeng stared heavily at the jade table. The appearance of a young man suddenly appeared in his mind. He had specifically asked about Li Xizhi and had also met Dongfang Eastern Heyun in the North Sea.

"Perhaps he took action... Dongfang Eastern Heyun is the first breath of the Dragon Lord's transformation into a pill. It is definitely impossible to calculate his origin. Once it involves the Dragon Lord, let alone the Zifu, even if several Maha gather together, they cannot calculate it clearly."

At this moment, guessing this matter was of no avail. Li Xuanfeng asked: "How is the magic treasure being forged?"

"That heavy armor of the Murong family has many traces of demonic cultivators, and it is very difficult to melt. Now there is still more than half the time."

Ning Heyuan replied, and then cared about his injuries, and soon said goodbye and left.

Li Xuanfeng sent Ning Heyuan away, returned to the cave mansion, sat cross-legged, and took out a jade bottle from his bosom.

In this jade bottle was precisely the 【Geng Metal Three Qi Pill】 rewarded by Yuanxiu. Even through a very precious jade bottle, holding it in his hand still felt like holding a blade.

"The Chi family and the Ning family repeatedly cared about my injuries and sent such precious treasure medicine. They hope that I will heal my injuries early and take the medicine early... to contribute to Qingchi."

Li Xuanfeng paused and shook out the pill in the jade bottle.

He saw a golden light jumping out of the bottle in a hurry, dazzling and dazzling, illuminating the surroundings stark white. This immortal pill floated gently in the air, as if observing the surrounding environment.

The golden-white light flowed continuously along the patterns on the pill, and the cave was filled with fragrance. Hearing the sound of gold and iron, reddish earth-like patterns appeared on the walls, and golden and silver powder blew up on the ground with a rustle.

"I'm afraid that if it is taken out for a moment, everything in the cave mansion will turn into a piece of gold and stone."

He had no hesitation, picked up the pill, and put it into his mouth gently.

"Hum!"

Li Xuanfeng only felt a buzzing sound in his head, and the world turned upside down before his eyes. The pill disappeared as soon as it entered his mouth, turning into golden light wandering through his body, quickly transferring to his Qi Sea acupoint.

Li Xuanfeng had refined the 'Piercing Jin Shi'. His Qi Sea was originally a vast expanse of gold, mixed with strands of golden-red light. Now that this completely different golden light fell into it, it suddenly exploded into a wave.

'Piercing Jin Shi' was a cultivation technique refined by the Piercing Gold Gate. Its Qi could break formations, open mountains, and destroy enemy magic treasures. It was good at breaking surfaces with points. The more enemies it killed, the more it was tempered by blood energy, and the more powerful it became.

Li Xuanfeng had tempered the 'Piercing Jin Shi' to the extreme a long, long time ago. The immortal foundation itself could bless his body, making his whole body like gold and stone, urging evil energy, and complementing his 【Strength Piercing Through a Thousand Juns】. The spirit apertures in his hands sprayed evil energy, which achieved his prestige today.

Now the golden energy in the Qi Sea was mixed into a ball, rising or floating. The slightly lighter golden energy rose upward, and the slightly turbid golden energy fell to the bottom. The golden light reconnected, and the 【Geng Metal Three Qi Pill】 condensed again.

Li Xuanfeng found that his cultivation, which had nowhere to advance, actually began to operate slowly, still rising, breaking through the boundary of the peak of Foundation Establishment, and condensing again.

"This..."

He suddenly had a very strange premonition. This feeling was exactly the same as the feeling of Foundation Establishment decades ago, as if something was condensing from the Qi Sea, gradually manifesting its form.

Sure enough, the Geng Metal Three Qi Pill in the Qi Sea slowly changed its form, turning into a huge golden talisman, covered with extremely complex patterns, shining with bursts of colorful light.

Li Xuanfeng gradually realized in his heart: "Immortal foundation 'Heavenly Gold Armor'!"

What appeared in the Qi Sea in front of him was precisely the companion of his immortal foundation 'Piercing Jin Shi', one of the immortal foundations of the Geng Metal lineage — 'Heavenly Gold Armor'! His aura advanced a step further, and golden-patterned armor appeared on his body, but his face gradually sank, and he secretly said coldly in his heart: "The so-called 【Geng Metal Three Qi Pill】 turns out to be a technique to supplement the Dao companion!"

In the Zifu Golden Core path, a lineage of gold properties has many Dao companions. These Dao companions can supplement each other. After needing to refine Zifu supernatural powers, one will practice Dao companions of the same lineage.

Practicing by oneself is naturally not as fast as swallowing others, so there are often Zifu swallowing Foundation Establishment in Jiangnan, and Xiao Yuansi also said this early on.

"Foundation Establishment can also take pills to make the Qi Sea have more Dao companions... From then on, there will be many wonders, but it is a strategy of pulling up seedlings to help them grow. Not only will it affect the mind... but from then on, Zifu will be difficult..."

Two rays of brilliance intertwined in Li Xuanfeng's Qi Sea. His old eyes opened slightly, and he quickly understood the actions of Yuanxiu and True Person Qiushui...

"True Person Qiushui undoubtedly wants the best for the Ning family... My practicing this technique is undoubtedly the best result... No matter whether Ning Wan can break through successfully, this move is of great benefit to the Ning family..."

"As for True Person Yuanxiu, at this time I possess strength that is a step better, naturally I can strive for more benefits for Qingchi... The two True Persons have consistent interests, so they summoned me together."

Although the immortal foundation condensed, the medicinal properties in the 【Geng Metal Three Qi Pill】 were still being continuously refined, poured into the 'Heavenly Gold Armor', gradually condensing this immortal foundation completely.

"This is the consideration of the True Person..."

Li Xuanfeng felt cold in his heart. He originally had no Zifu considerations. After all, his subsequent cultivation technique "Heavenly Beard Polishing Gold Classic" was in the hands of the Piercing Gold Gate. Not to mention whether he had a chance, letting him break through to Zifu did not conform to the interests of Qingchi or any party...

But once a pill was swallowed, the Zifu path was unattainable. Li Xuanfeng felt somewhat shocked and angry in his heart. His thoughts lingered, and the face of the element slowly appeared in front of him.

"Dare not hate..."

More realizations slowly surged into his heart. The mana emerging from the 'Heavenly Gold Armor' was slightly gray, wandering through his meridians, making the golden patterns on his body surface thicker and thicker.

"'Heavenly Gold Armor', its energy is cold and sharp, good at swallowing and spitting golden energy, inducing golden light. Once the immortal foundation is urged, the Heavenly Gold Armor condenses on the body surface, and the whole body turns into the color of gold and stone."

"Once this Heavenly Gold Armor is on the body, one can tear tigers and leopards with hands, not fear water and fire, and even not fear evil poison. One can use gold and stone to repair wounds, and even regenerate broken limbs..."

Li Xuanfeng's cultivation in his body was still rising. He felt it quietly. The clouds cleared and the fog dispersed in the Qi Sea, as if something had been touched, and something jumped up again.

This thing was white and shiny, illuminating the golden light in the Qi Sea to stagnate, the golden pill retreated, and the various energies condensed. Li Xuanfeng's heart jumped: "This pill... induced the talisman seed!"
