And with the reconciliation with Yan San, Gong Shanhe and his men will focus more and more on internal affairs and managing their clan members, with the goal of continuously strengthening and enhancing the strength of their clan members.
If no one in the lineages of the Second Elder and the Fourth and Fifth Elders breaks through to the late Nascent Soul stage, they will never be able to succeed.
Shanhe only needs to control the cultivation resources in his hands. Even if the second elder himself wants to break through to the late Nascent Soul stage, it will be as difficult as ascending to heaven.
Therefore, he had to ascertain the Great Elder's final thoughts. Since they once had a common enemy, the Second Elder and his men could certainly unite against the outside world in order to survive.
But now that the war has ended, the Great Elder and his men have gained more and more knowledge, and their ability to balance the power of the other clans is becoming stronger and stronger.
Inevitably, the Second Elder began to have more worries, and the idea of creating a Miao clan lineage again uncontrollably came to his mind.
The existence of Li Yan and Hong Yin is an extra unpredictable factor. Although Hong Yin is strong, he is just a wisp of soul after all. Once you are prepared, there are still many ways to deal with the soul.
Therefore, they wanted to focus on finding out all of Li Yan's cards before making other further plans.
Li Yan just glanced at the fifth elder, then turned and nodded to the first elder, thus agreeing to the first elder's words.
Li Yan glanced at him as if he didn't exist. The Fifth Elder immediately became furious. He had disliked Li Yan for a long time. After Li Yan came to the Tianli tribe, he made several of his branches passive and controlled everywhere.
Therefore, Li Yan made a great contribution to the Tianli tribe, but he personally believed that the other party came just for the martial arts.
Although the Fifth Elder is in the early Nascent Soul stage, he is not afraid of facing a Nascent Soul stage warrior. His body leans forward slightly.
"I didn't see Fellow Daoist Li seal a fifth-level 'Yinshan Beast' with his own hands. Since the Great Elder has entrusted the important task of protecting the clan to Fellow Daoist Li and the clan leader, it is equivalent to putting our lives on your shoulders.
I certainly believe in the strength of the clan leader, but can Fellow Daoist Li really reach the level of strength that the Great Elder described, to the point where he can restrain Yan San by joining forces with the clan leader? Hehehe… "
The fifth elder sneered and stared at Li Yan's eyes. If he had such a powerful magic weapon in his hand, his strength would increase dramatically.
According to the description of the great elder, the two treasures on Li Yan have been used to seal. How much strength does he have? He has already cultivated to the sixth level of "Qiongqi Purgatory Technique".
"Thank you for your appreciation, Great Elder. I have also told Sixth Senior Sister that I will not refuse anything within my ability!"
Li Yan looked back at the fifth elder calmly.
"Within your ability? Don't let your ability bring trouble to our clan leader!"
"Doesn't the Fifth Elder have a better way?"
Li Yan had a half-smile on his face at this time, and when he spoke, he slightly emphasized the word "better", as if to express that the arrangement of the Great Elder was the most reasonable, and no one else could replace him.
Moreover, a smile appeared in Li Yan's eyes. He just looked at the other party like that. The Fifth Elder was stared at by Li Yan with this expression. The anger that he had been suppressing began to surge. He did not speak immediately...
For a moment, the hall was unusually quiet, and everyone just watched the two of them talking to each other.
In fact, everyone has their own ideas in their hearts. Some people want to find out Li Yan's background, and some people can see that Li Yan is already dissatisfied.
After a few breaths, the fifth elder broke the silence.
"I wonder if I will have the honor to learn from Fellow Daoist Li's magical powers!"
"no problem!"
Following the challenge from the Fifth Elder, Li Yan answered immediately without even blinking, and his answer was even faster than the one who asked the question.
At this moment, the fifth elder immediately stood up and walked out.
"Then let's see who's better in the sky!"
"No need, it's fine here. The restrictions here are not weak. You can make your move now!"
Li Yan also stood up from his chair and first glanced at Gong Chenying. Gong Chenying's voice sounded in his mind.
"Don't get seriously injured!"
When Gong Chenying saw the half-smile on Li Yan's face, she sighed in her heart. She knew that Li Yan was definitely going to take action, and any dissuasion would be useless.
Moreover, Gong Chenying also guessed Li Yan's other intention. This guy didn't just want to take action because he was being troubled by the Fifth Elder, but he had always been thinking about the Fifth Elder and remembered that the other party had hidden his letter.
After the overall situation was basically stabilized and he had established a firm foothold in the Tianli tribe, he began to look for opportunities to cause trouble for the Fifth Elder.
At this time, if Li Yan fought with any elder, as long as he did not kill him, the others would just stand by and watch.
"Hahaha, Brother Li's magical powers are even more powerful than I thought. Is it right here?"
The Fifth Elder paused as he was walking out. He immediately turned around and looked at Li Yan again. Although he was smiling, his eyes had turned cold.
Although Li Yan did not explicitly say that he was incapable, his words implied that it would be effortless to deal with him, and he could defeat him here without destroying the hall.
He is a Nascent Soul cultivator, and a powerful physical cultivator who can tear the void with his flesh and blood. Even among the three tribes of wind beasts, except Yan San, those fourth-order mid-stage wind beasts do not dare to say that they can easily defeat him.
The expressions of the other people in the hall were even more different. Some were strange, some were suspicious, and some were hesitant... Even Hong Yin opened her beautiful eyes again at this moment, with an expression of watching a good show, which made the Fifth Elder feel even more humiliated by the other party.
Li Yan didn't care about other people's looks. He stood up, walked a few steps to the center of the hall, and then stood there, his black robe fluttering in the wind.
He just let his hands hang down in his sleeves without any other movements, and then looked at the Fifth Elder who was like a volcano about to erupt.
All eyes in the hall fell on the two of them. As expected, even after they stood up, no one tried to stop them, including Gong Shanhe and the Great Elder.
“Okay, okay!!”
The fifth elder stared at Li Yan and sneered.
Li Yan on the opposite side had already frowned. Once he started fighting with someone, what he hated most was still talking to the other person.
If I hadn't let the other party attack first, I would have already attacked from his side. I would have just fought if I could. How can I say I won by complaining all the time
The next moment, the figure of the fifth elder suddenly disappeared from the spot, and at the same time, Li Yan also moved, and his body also blurred, leaving a residual image on the spot.
“BOOM!! BOOM!”
At the moment when the two figures disappeared, two loud noises appeared almost at the same time. First, a ball of yellow light shot out from the center of the hall. Then, a bright forbidden light burst out from a pillar in the hall that was as thick as four or five people hugging.
The two beams of light came suddenly. Except for the Great Elder and Hong Yin, no one in the hall could see clearly what had happened. The Fifth Elder's figure, who had just jumped up, was instantly enveloped in the dazzling light.
The two balls of light quickly dissipated, and a figure appeared where the fifth elder had stood before. The man was wearing a black robe and had short black hair as hard as steel needles. He was looking at a huge pillar on the side. It was Li Yan.
And where he was looking, a burly man in a purple robe was half leaning against a pillar in the hall. His face was pale and his chest was heaving violently and rapidly, as if there was not enough air for him to breathe.
"Old Five!!"
The second elder's voice rang out in an instant, and as the voice rang out, he appeared in front of the fifth elder. Without saying a word, he placed his palm directly on the other's shoulder, and then his face relaxed.
The Fifth Elder's body was only temporarily sealed by a force, and that sealing force was rapidly dissipating. This made him swallow back the words that he was about to scold Li Yan. It was obvious that the other party was showing mercy.
"you… "
After the Second Elder passed on spiritual power to the Fifth Elder, the depression in his chest was relieved a little, but he still felt sore and weak all over, and could not muster much magic power.
What made him so angry that he was shaking was that he couldn't believe that he was defeated by the opponent in one move. The key point was that he had no idea how the opponent made the move, and everything happened so fast that it was beyond his reaction.
The moment he attacked the opponent, he felt that his body, which had just risen, was enveloped by a powerful force, and then the Danzhong acupoint on his chest seemed to be pricked by a needle.
The magic power that was originally flowing rapidly was suddenly as if someone grabbed it by the neck, and immediately disappeared from the tendons and veins, and he could no longer breathe.
He was so frightened that he fell to the ground, but then he was kicked hard in the abdomen.
The magic power that he was trying to raise in his dantian was shattered and flew out directly.
The Fifth Elder only uttered one word before he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen. His face turned pale and he could no longer speak.
Li Yan, who was standing in front, actually had a smile on his face again, but his smile caught the eyes of the Fifth Elder, and he almost couldn't breathe.
Li Yan looked at the other party with a smile. Would he have to spend time and effort to deal with a cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage
If he had not taken his identity into consideration, the addition of the "Demon Sealing Needle" would have nailed his Nascent Soul inside his Dantian.
With the latter kick, the Nascent Soul could have been shattered directly without the protection of magic power. Although he restrained most of his strength, the opponent's Nascent Soul was still shaken, and severe pain was inevitable.
"I've been thinking about you for a long time, and you actually took the initiative to give me a chance!"
Li Yan was thinking in his heart, this guy actually cut off the connection between senior sister and the Wuliang Sect, and he really thought he was an elder with great magical powers. He beat you in front of senior sister.
When all this fell into the eyes of others, the fourth elder who had been smiling before now had his mouth half open and the smile on his face froze.
"One... one move? Old... Old Five was defeated in one move? Even the Second Elder couldn't do it so easily. Is he... a late-stage great cultivator?"
His own strength is only slightly higher than that of the Fifth Elder. The Second Elder is in the middle Nascent Soul stage like Li Yan, but if he wants to defeat them, it will take dozens of breaths, or even longer.
This is also due to the familiarity of each other's skills. The only one who can subdue them with one move is probably the Great Elder. Gong Shanhe is stronger than the Second Elder, but it will take time.
The third elder's beautiful eyes were fixed on Li Yan's face, with ripples on them.
"He seems to be even stronger. Has Ah Ying been lying to me? This guy has been practicing for more than two hundred years. He is an old monster who is nearly a thousand years old..."
Gong Shanhe, who was at the top, was slightly surprised, but then he returned to normal and began to mutter to himself.
"I, I really can't beat him!!"
Only the First Elder and the Sixth Elder remained calm. However, the First Elder really guessed Li Yan's strength, while the Sixth Elder just stood stiffly in his chair.
The cultivators of the Tianli tribe have always been proud of their powerful fighting ability, especially among those of the same level. In the past, they always crushed others of the same level. Even those with bodies as strong as those of the wind beasts were still suppressed and beaten by the Tianli tribe at the same level.
Once upon a time, the Sixth Elder believed that the monks and warriors of his clan were the strongest in the world.
But how could the Taoist partner of my niece Ying be so powerful? The Fifth Elder couldn't even last half a breath in the opponent's hands. This is a duel between two Nascent Soul cultivators. Shouldn't it be a vigorous fight
There was also a gleam of light in Hongyin's beautiful eyes.
"This kid's fighting power has already reached the level of an early great cultivator. He can defeat the enemy with one move. He has a lot of good stuff on him.
The golden needle technique that was transformed was very powerful. Even if it was placed in all the techniques of the Hongfu Temple, it would at least be ranked in the top five. Moreover, it was a top-level technique that could only be practiced by those in the late Nascent Soul stage or above!"
At this time, the Fifth Elder had recovered a little with the help of the Second Elder's magic power, and Li Yan's "Demon Sealing Needle" was also under his deliberate control and melted after entering his body.
The fifth elder slowly pushed away the second elder's arm and stared at Li Yan with confusion and resentment in his eyes. The opponent's strength was so great that he could actually send the power into his body instantly through his strong body that had been tempered through thousands of trials and tribulations.
The fifth elder now finally understood that Li Yan must have practiced other body-refining techniques, and had also reached a very high level.
Then, without saying a word, the fifth elder strode out of the hall, obviously bearing a grudge against Li Yan.
However, after Li Yan learned about the clan divisions within the Tianli tribe, he had already known that such a day might come.
Without the high priest, the Tianli tribe no longer had absolute power and rules. If it weren't for the great elder's repeated tolerance, the tribe would have probably been divided during the years when Gong Shanhe was missing.
In addition, Li Yan is a vengeful person. If someone has thoughts about Gong Chenying, he will of course retaliate. Would he let himself be a turtle
Just when everyone thought that this matter would come to nothing and that they would wait three months after today's discussion and then proceed according to the Great Elder's previous plan.
Unexpectedly, the Second Elder, who was looking at the Fifth Elder's back as he left, suddenly turned his head to look at the First Elder. This time, he didn't even glance at Li Yan.
"Great Elder, some things should be dealt with sooner rather than later. Something unexpected may happen in three months. I plan to go to the Qionglin Gate with Lao Wu first.
I think it would be safer for me to go there. They would be more concerned because they are afraid of the existence of the Great Elder.
If anything happens to Lao Wu and me, they won't be able to bear the revenge of a late Nascent Soul cultivator, especially in our current situation. They don't dare to fight with people like us who are desperate!"
As soon as the second elder said this, the first elder, Gong Shanhe, and the third and sixth elders all frowned, and instantly fell into various thoughts.
They were considering the real meaning of the Second Elder's words and the various possibilities that might arise.
