Chapter 785

As soon as Li Wushao asked, Li Xuanxuan immediately shook his head and replied: "Naturally, there is no settlement yet... In the past, Chenghuai's marriage was also decided when Zhi'er and Xiao'er came back to visit their relatives. Now there is only this one child, and there is no news from the sect... The clan can only put it aside..."

"What's more, Zhi'er is not what he used to be. He is a big figure in the South Sea, so this matter must be even more cautious..."

When Li Xizhi came back to visit his relatives with Yang Xiaoer several times, the Foundation Establishment array of Qingdu Peak had not been built yet. It could not be compared to the appearance of the Zifu Immortal Clan today, let alone Li Xizhi's current status. After the old man finished speaking, Li Wushao nodded:

"Master and Mistress said that in the past, they only hoped that the Young Master could grow up safely and continue the family bloodline, so they specifically chose the Ding clan. Now that Zhouluo has grown up, the marriage is especially critical. Several families and sects all have some intentions. Some people have visited Master, and since the Young Master has been in charge for these years, they have come even more diligently..."

Li Xuanxuan nodded repeatedly. Of course, he hoped that Li Zhouluo would have a good wife. The old man said somewhat tactfully: "We must also pay attention to the willingness of both sides... If it gets ugly, it will offend people instead."

"This is natural."

Li Wushao didn't know if he understood his meaning, cupped his hands and said: "Master's meaning is... before Zhouluo reaches Foundation Establishment, he should go to the South Sea first, live there for a period of time, meet with the young ladies of several families and sects, cultivate some feelings, and get married there. After everything is arranged and he breaks through to Foundation Establishment, we will see his willingness to come back."

Xuanxuan was stunned and asked: "This... will it be too arrogant... it will make several families unhappy..."

"Haha!"

Li Wushao laughed, shook his head and said: "Not at all! The old lord is not in the South Sea, so you don't know... Now Master is an honored guest everywhere in the South Sea. Zhouluo is the master of a dignified Zifu Immortal Clan, the grand-nephew of a True Person, the bloodline of the Yue Kingdom royal family, and the grandson of the Qutian Pavilion Master. He himself is a top-notch talent. Which family is not rushing to come up?"

Li Xuanxuan had a count in his heart and thought secretly: 'Ximing said... that Yang Tianya was hiding in some corner, so he is still the bloodline of the Yang family True Person. Indeed...'

Li Wushao didn't stop his mouth and continued: "Besides this matter, there is also the matter of Jieqi Peak. Now the peak master of Jieqi Peak is Peak Master Lin Wuning. Hearing that I was going to the lake, he came to visit several times, let me bring news, saying that there are five types of Qi in Qingchi being collected at the lake, three of which cannot be found elsewhere. Now, damn it, he is being polite, saying that he hopes to set a place with the Wangyue Immortal Clan as a foothold for the Qingchi Sect, so that there will be a procedure to follow when coming to collect Qi in the future."

His mouth split open, and he laughed:

"Qingchi also has today, it's really satisfying."

Li Xuanxuan knew as soon as he pondered that it was something like 【Lake Gold Autumn】. Most of them were unique to Qingchi. The "Moon Lake Reflecting Autumn Art" had a great reputation. He had Taiyin Moon Radiance in his own hands, but he didn't dare to use it, so he was very conflicted.

His heart moved, and he asked:

"What kind of people are these who collect Qi? I'm afraid they won't send Foundation Establishment cultivators, and they have all made the Profound Scenery Spiritual Oath..."

"Not bad."

Li Wushao had also practiced things in Qingchi. Hearing the string song and knowing the elegance, he pulled him into the hall and said in a low voice: "Old lord, this Jieqi Peak naturally doesn't send Foundation Establishment cultivators to collect Qi. After all, the way of collecting Qi has always been the top priority. The key to 【Lake Gold Autumn】 lies in the Huochuo Method. Unless soul-searching..."

Li Xuanxuan laughed and replied:

"Don't be anxious, just let their people come over to collect Qi."

Li Wushao nodded heavily. Soon he saw Quan Yuduan and the other return. But these two Qingchi disciples returned, intentionally avoiding the other side, seemingly not wanting to bump into the cultivators of Ziyan. They didn't have fun playing, appearing restrained.

Wang Quwan was also waiting on the lake. He could only take Li Wushao out. Quan Yuduan saw the two from afar and laughed:

"Old Senior, we are going over now. After handling the affairs, we will come back to see the lord."

Li Xuanxuan nodded: "Be careful in everything."

Several people went north together. Li Xuanxuan sent them out of the lake. The sky darkened again. The lake was silent. The Ziyan Sect cultivators who had been hiding on the island and not showing up also came out. Several purple Qi pierced into the sky and flew away lightly.

Kong Que Sea.

The further north one went, the more magnificent the seawater of the Kong Que Sea became. By the time they reached the 【Great Bestowal Copper Color Temple】 at the far northeast, the seawater under the Bestowal Copper Spiritual Mountain already presented a colorful and illusory color, changing repeatedly with the sunlight. Pieces of coral floated up, like living fish and snakes.

Looking down from the Bestowal Copper Spiritual Mountain, one could still see several black dots wriggling on the sea surface, kowtowing step by step toward the spiritual mountain. Naturally, coral would lift them up, allowing them to walk on the sea surface as if on flat ground.

But the peacocks all over the mountain were jumping east and west, playing on the spiritual mountain with their buttocks stuck up. Several mortals kowtowed to the foot of the mountain and were pecked by the peacocks. These people were already sallow and thin, so how could they withstand this torture? They fell into the sea covered in blood.

At this time, the several novices serving the peacocks on the mountain watched with relish and laughed instead:

"Unsteady mind, it really serves them right! Kowtowing step by step cultivates the release heart. If one cannot let go of self-respect, self-love, and self-thought, how can one be called pious? How can one seek emptiness?"

Several people were laughing when they heard a gust of wind on the flat ground. These novices didn't have much cultivation, so they were immediately rolled up by the gust of wind, along with a piece of mortals on the ground, all falling onto a piece of colorful feather ground. These novices hadn't landed yet, but they were already laughing with ecstasy: "This was chosen by the blessed land!"

"【Seven-Colored Kong Que Back】! It is one of the highest blessed lands!"

Several novices immediately sat firmly on the peacock's back and recited scriptures piously. The dozen or so mortals were sallow and thin, falling and breaking their arms and legs. Seeing this appearance, they also followed along to recite, and surprisingly, it didn't hurt at all.

This huge peacock flapped its wings and flew, all the way east. Brilliant light flowed in its eyes, which were as dark as gemstones. The East Sea was vast, and this peacock was truly bored flying. After a while, it picked up a person to receive them, causing a burst of cheers on its back.

Several novices had the best taste and were left behind. Seeing mortals enter the blessed land first, they became unconvinced instead. They suppressed their jealousy and didn't think about it, using all their strength to chant scriptures.

This peacock flew all the way to the corner of the sea. After eating the snacks, it transformed into a woman wearing five-colored clothes, born dignified and kind. She dived into the seabed all the way, performed magic, escaped into the ground, flew into the karst cave, and finally saw a piece of green water pool.

She smiled slightly and said in a low voice: "I have seen Great True Person Buzi!"

The water in this underground pool fluctuated slightly, revealing a weak voice, which sounded very vicissitudinous: "Fellow Daoist Yuse, thank you very much this time... Have you brought the Blood Jade Treasure Pearl?"

Yuse Eyed Lianmin smiled and nodded, replying: "You are a great cultivator who has crossed the Canzi, so you don't have to be so polite. Being able to help the Great True Person in this desperate place is also a fate. I only hope you will recover from your injuries and catch that great demon again!"

"I only hope... let's look at that flower first."

This green pool fluctuated for a while, and the voice of Chi Buzi came:

"It should be."

So the water waves shook, and they saw a bright white flower emerge from the pool surface. Yuse Eyed Lianmin's eyes lit up, and she laughed:

"It is truly a rare Taiyin treasure! It is worthy of being the Solar lineage... It really opened the eyes of a small cultivator like me in this remote place..."

She looked at it carefully and heard a clear voice with a smile in her ears: "Does it look good? It's right that it looks good!"

Yuse Eyed Lianmin was shocked in her heart and hurriedly turned her head. On the big rock behind her sat a disheveled green-robed cultivator, looking at her with a full smile. Her heart went cold, and she asked:

"True Person... this is..."

Before she could ask, she felt a piece of crystal fly up in front of her eyes, and her hair stood on end. She pinched the formula in her hand, and layers of colorful light flew up, hitting the crystal, but she found that her vision was blurred, cool and bone-chilling.

The soles of her feet were cold, and she felt the cold touch of water waves. She had actually stepped into the green pool.

'Chou Gui Cang'! Yuse Eyed Lianmin was a newly promoted Eyed Lianmin. In magic combat, she was definitely not Chi Buzi's opponent. She pinched the formula at the first moment and said urgently: "Great True Person! My fate is in the hands of Shanxia Jinlian Mohe. Killing me will create karma... please act cautiously!"

Yuse Eyed Lianmin had never thought that Chi Buzi would take action against her. Shanxia Jinlian Mohe had already lived for nine generations, and Chi Buzi was not a person who hated the release. Killing her Yuse Eyed Lianmin had no benefits at all!

Eyed Lianmin and Jinlian Mohe were both release cultivators who had attained the non-retrogression ground and were comparable to Zifu. The biggest difference between them was the non-retrogression ground. The non-retrogression ground of Jinlian Mohe was on their own Jinlian Mohe position. The form and thought were not retrogressive. Unless the true spirit was locked, it was equivalent to immortality.

And the non-retrogression ground of Eyed Lianmin hung under the corresponding Jinlian Mohe position. The highest point was under the Golden Lotus, also called under the Lotus Seat or under the Great Pu Cha Di. The form and thought were not retrogressive. Even if the dharma body was destroyed in combat outside, returning to the release soil could still recover.

Eyed Lianmin at this level already had the potential to attain Jinlian Mohe, but the conditions were harsh.

The system of release cultivators was extremely marvelous. Otherwise, how could they walk out of the chaotic world of immortals and demons and take advantage of the chaos to occupy the entire north? It was not without reason that the seven-path release cultivators and the northern mortals were pathologically obsessed with the release soil. It was simply too convenient and safe compared to seeking one's own nature...

And although her Yuse non-retrogression ground had not yet been attained under the highest Golden Lotus, it had reached the secondary Fahui seat. The spiritual thought was not retrogressive and could retreat to the release soil. More importantly, as a descendant of the peacock, her status in the Eyed Lianmin Path was unusual. If she died, Shanxia Jinlian Mohe would personally pay attention to it!

Chi Buzi had no benefits from killing her other than shattering her dharma body and offending the nine-generation Shanxia Jinlian Mohe and the entire peacock clan... Otherwise, how could she, Yuse, rashly contact Chi Buzi?!

Even though the development of the facts far exceeded her imagination, Yuse still remained calm and pointed out the pros and cons in one sentence. She formed a seal in her hand, but looked at the green-robed man in front of her leaning on the stone, laughing: "Little peacock, I won't kill you! I'll just trap you for a period of time."

The green water at the soles of her feet rippled. Facing Chi Buzi of the Solar lineage, Yuse had already lost most of her spirit. She still wanted to move her feet to jump out of this green pool at the first moment. Her magic power operated, and she stepped out of thin air, but found that this green pool followed her like a shadow, following under her feet.

Chi Buzi raised his eyebrows and looked, saying casually:

"After all, it is a peacock. Demon objects are inferior to people. You cultivate Eyed Lianmin, you don't even have a supernatural power, and you haven't learned any magic spells yourself. If you met someone else, you would have been slapped to death by others in two slaps!"

He looked nonchalant sitting on the stone, but in his hand, he was playing with a small tripod, emitting a green and glossy luster. A strong sense of stagnation filled this carefully arranged cave, so that a faint green mist permeated, clearly ready to go.

In fact, the peacock descendant was also a Zifu bloodline. Although it could not compare to the dragon or phoenix, it was not worse than others. It was a pity that she met Chi Buzi, the first genius of the Chi family in three hundred years. The green pool at the soles of her feet and the green mist in the air cooperated to bind her so that she could not escape into the Taixu. Yuse maintained politeness with difficulty:

"I don't know what requirements the True Person has. Just tell the junior properly. Why be so aggressive..."

Yuse was not non-retrogression of thought, and this dharma body and Eyed Lianmin position were extremely precious. Knowing that the other party could not kill her and had no motive to kill her, she was ultimately reluctant to move.

Chi Buzi raised his eyebrows and looked, laughing:

"I have been practicing a magic spell for these past few years. I need peacock blood, peacock feet, and peacock feathers. This time I came to borrow the fellow Daoist's dharma body."

Yuse breathed a sigh of relief immediately. After all, these things were not as good as the entire dharma body. If she hadn't been trapped here, she naturally wouldn't have been willing to give them, but she felt it was reasonable and said in a low voice:

"I this..."

"Boom..."

Before she could finish speaking, the small tripod in Chi Buzi's hand had already emerged above her head. The intense power of the green water sank down. At this moment of Yuse's hesitation, the green pool under her feet had already rippled with complex array patterns.

Yuse felt a chill in her heart, but the power in Chi Buzi's tripod had been accumulating for I don't know how long. Covering it down like this, it suppressed her magic power until it dissipated, and she couldn't move.

Chi Buzi was still sitting on the stone, motionless, his eyes playful:

'Falling for the same trick once is not enough, and you have to fall for it again... really stupid enough... The ones raised by the release soil are all these stupid things...'

Even though Chi Buzi was a great True Person who had crossed the Canzi, Yuse was not someone he could kill by turning his hand. In a short time, he could only shake her, beat her back to her original form, and trap her on the green pool.

Yuse felt shocked in her heart. At this moment, it was the weak time when she couldn't move. The other party could easily hurt herself by offering any magic treasure. She was still hesitating in her heart: 'At most, he covets my entire dharma body... Can he still find a magic treasure to kill me?'

Just at the moment of this thought, the big array at the soles of her feet had already lit up with white light. Yuse's figure faded away suddenly, and a dignified Eyed Lianmin under the Fahui seat disappeared just like that, leaving only colorful light flowing in the empty cave.

Chi Buzi's eyes were dark, feeling the weightlessness that was slowly attacking. He had a count in his heart:

'Surprisingly, he could pick up Yuse like this... It clearly wasn't Him who took action... 【Heaven】 has multiple True Lord lords...'

'The magic treasure cannot play half a role, and I myself can be caught into that cave heaven even if I am not in the array... I am afraid that even if I go to the ends of the earth, I cannot avoid it. 【Heaven】 is not only much higher than the Eyed Lianmin Release Soil, but it is not in the Taixu after all, it is outside the sky...'

'The peacock is really stupid and clumsy... If I go around in a circle, I might be able to catch it once more. Oh, I have to see that chatterbox stupid donkey again...'
