Fog mountains.
Between water and clouds.
There are many rugged and secluded places, and it is difficult to find the traces of immortals.
There is green smoke beside the secluded spring and stone, the sound of flowers and birds is heard leisurely, the bamboos are sparse and dense, and the red beans are lingering.
It’s done.
Lu Bei hugged Zhan Hongqu and said some sweet words. Ever since Ju Shi became popular, the two hadn't had any close contact for a long time.
The lines are all ready-made. Zhu Qilan spoke them once when he came out of quarantine two days ago. After the cutscene, the original words were copied without any sense of incongruity.
It's strange.
Zhu Qilan and Zhan Hongqu came out of retreat one after another, consolidated their realm and became monks in the Tribulation Crossing Stage. Bai Jin and She Xuan had no movement for a long time, and no one knew when they would wake up.
According to Lu Bei's understanding, She Xuan and Zhu Qilan are children abandoned by heaven. One's bloodline is not favored by heaven and earth, and the other's fate is not tolerated by heaven and earth. It should take them longer to consolidate their realm.
In other words, Bai Jin and Zhan Hongqu came out first, followed by She Xuan and Zhu Qilan.
The results were not like that, there was no pattern at all.
I can't figure it out.
Then I thought, this is how cultivating immortals is, there are no rules to speak of.
Zhan Hongqu was lying in Lu Bei's arms. When he heard that construction had begun opposite Zang Qianshan and that another diplomatic residence was about to be built, he snorted twice in dissatisfaction.
"My senior sister is not happy, but I am not happy either. This is cultivation, just bear with it!"
Lu Bei coaxed the kitten by scratching Zhan Hongqu's chin, saying that the stronger the strength, the higher the status, and the greater the responsibility with the power. He didn't want the four countries to fall into war and the three families to beat the Qi and Yan families. He had to swallow this grievance.
Suffering a loss is a blessing, just bear with it.
"I'm so sorry for wronging you!"
Zhan Hongqu spoke in a sour and sarcastic tone, which sounded like a sarcasm.
A little female disciple, relying on her status as the elder's daughter, dared to go against the sect master. If this continued, the sect master's authority would become a decoration. As expected, the female disciple was caned 800 times, and only escaped with her life after admitting her mistake and begging for mercy.
Once again, it's done.
Lu Bei taught the fragments of the Nine-Year Qigong Method to help Zhan Hongqu avoid the heavenly tribulation, and reminded her of the precautions during the tribulation period, what she can do and what she cannot do.
"Just in case, if you accidentally bring about a heavenly calamity, don't panic, it's not a big deal. Hide in the secret realm and don't go anywhere. Junior brother, I will come forward to talk to the heavens, and it will be a small matter and it will be over."
"There are also these two books, which are about the Infinite Sword Classic. They contain the insights of the masters and grand masters of swordsmanship, and include everything from sword intent to Taoist rhyme." Lu Bei took out two Taoist books. Bai Jin had not yet come out of retreat, so he asked Zhan Hongqu to study them first.
Hurry up and get the Infinite Dao Rhythm done quickly.
At the moment, he only has the two Dao rhymes of Changchong and Yuanran, and the Immortal Sword Intent Lv6. To upgrade it, he needs four corresponding Immortal Dao rhymes, which is very difficult. There is not much time left for the two senior sisters Hongbai.
Zhan Hongqu Sword was a fanatic. He practiced the Qigong method for nine years. His body size changed to 1.2 meters. He picked up two Taoist books and started reading them.
The next day, Lu Bei went out feeling refreshed, with the scent of his senior sister all over him.
"The sect master gives special lessons to his disciples and would lecture them all night long. The disciples study hard day and night. The sect master is kind and generous and does things himself. If the sect leaders follow his example, the Tianjian Sect will surely prosper." Lu Bei sighed repeatedly. When it comes to the management of the mountain gate, Qili Jing is far inferior to him.
Sense of achievement +1, mountain gate contribution↑
It was noon.
The Holy Land envoy Master Bu Zi rushed from the capital to Yuezhou, asking to see Tianjian Sect's leader Lu Bei. The on-duty elder Zhan Lexian was in charge of the reception.
Because of some secrets known to everyone in Zang Qianshan, Elder Zhan was known for his uprightness, especially towards beautiful female cultivators, such as Master Bu Zi, who was suspected to be his lover or a vixen. He would always have a stern face and show no kindness at all.
If the status of the Holy Land Envoy was not too noble, Zhan Lexian would not dare to neglect him and could let Master Bu Zi go through the process and wait in line until next year.
The sect leader is not here. I don’t know where he has gone.
Zhan Lexian was used to it, so he called his disciples to inquire and learned that Lu Beiren was in the secret realm of Cangqian Mountain, so he sent a letter to tell him through his flying sword.
Just as he picked up the sword talisman, Zhu Xiu Shi hurried over and, under Zhan Le Xian's vicious gaze, abducted the holy land envoy.
"Why does that elder look so nasty? Is it because I worked for the Huangji Sect before?" The former Huangji Sect's chief elder, Master Bu Zi, was puzzled. "Besides, his attitude towards you doesn't seem to be very friendly either."
"This matter is complicated and cannot be explained in a few words. You just need to know that all sword practitioners are like this. Practicing sword skills makes their brains stupid." Zhu Xiushi waved his hand awkwardly and led Master Bu Zi to Qingqiu Palace.
In the secret realm of Cangqian Mountain, Lu Bei often appeared in Jingshang Palace, either harassing the Taifu or having a secret meeting with the Taifu's student Zhao Shiran.
Now that the two of them are in seclusion at the same time, and Lu Bei seldom sets foot in the Wanshi Palace, there is no doubt that it can only be Qingqiu Palace.
Zhu Xiushi remained silent and was unwilling to explain the reason. Master Bu Zi became more interested and asked curiously.
The funny person avoided the question and changed the subject. She loved gossip and spread it everywhere. It didn't matter whether it was true or not, she just wanted to have fun.
But that's other people's fun, it's different when it happens to you.
Among the many rumors, Fox II was the godmother of the clan leader, a real monster, and the master was using your precious land to cultivate himself, a real Taoist. But when it came to her, the style changed drastically, and there were all kinds of rumors about her, such as the royal witch who paid for her position and the witch of the Zhu family who used her beauty to gain power.
It's so funny. With her looks, is it necessary for her to stick to him? Just after making a flirt with her, Lu Bei stretched out his tongue and licked her.
Because the rumor was too false, Zhu Xiushi decided not to spread it and mislead Master Bu Zi.
The two arrived at Qingqiu Palace, and heard soft laughter in the pavilion in the garden. Five little foxes were jumping around. The leader of the Tianjian Sect was blindfolded and grabbing foxes with his hands.
… x2
Unexpected, but reasonable, it was definitely Lu Bei.
"Hehehe, hurry up and run. If I catch you, then... hehehe."
Lu Bei waved his hands wildly, nimbly avoiding the little fox that had fallen into his trap, and took two steps at a time to get in front of Zhu Xiushi, using the move of Double Dragons Leaving the Cave...
It didn't work out.
He raised his hand to remove the blindfold and said in shock: "You didn't even dodge, bah, this is too obscene."
Zhu Xiushi rolled his eyes, not wanting to pay attention to him. He pulled Master Bu Zi over and explained that the Great Xia Holy Land had responded to the Fengque Arrow incident.
Lu Bei perked up, put away the blindfold and told the little foxes to stop making noise. He then served tea and apples and invited Master Bu Zi to take a seat in the pavilion.
Zhu Xiushi followed, wanting to open his eyes and see the splendor of the Fengque Arrow after it was unsealed.
The last time Master Bu Zi saw Lu Bei was at the Holy Land Ceremony, where Lu Bei, as a student, represented Wu Zhou and won first place.
Four or five months passed in a flash, and the Holy Land told her a piece of news that if the four countries of Xuanlong, Xiongchu, Wuzhou, Qi and Yan, and the twenty-three small countries in the north had any disputes in the future, the envoys of each country could contact Lu Bei first. As long as it was not too outrageous, his opinion was the opinion of the Holy Land.
Dominate one side and be the uncrowned king.
The Holy Land marked out a piece of territory for Lu Bei to do whatever he wanted with. As long as he didn't turn the world upside down, the Holy Land would turn a blind eye even if he undermined the imperial power of the four countries.
Too outrageous!
Master Bu Zi couldn't figure out what Lu Bei had done secretly in just a few months to make the Holy Land make such a big concession.
Could it be that he is the illegitimate son of Emperor Ji who was left alone
You know what, the possibility is very high.
As a messenger from the holy land, Master Bu Zi had received professional training and was able to guess the deeper meaning behind the message, which was terrifying when he thought about it carefully.
The four countries are in constant dispute, Lu Bei is particularly authoritarian, and the Holy Land stands on their side, giving them all the support they can get. This unreliable statement is untenable at first glance.
But if we look at it from another angle, the Holy Land is clearly instructing Lu Bei to unify the four countries and create a great human power. No matter what protests the four Xuanlong countries may have, the Holy Land will turn a blind eye.
"Hey, Sister Bu, I'm talking to you, why are you staring at my face?" Lu Bei raised his hand and touched the pretty boy's face, then he suddenly realized that it was Yingjun who had harmed him again.
On the side, Zhu Xiu Shi curled his lips and muttered, "Another blind man."
Master Bu Zi came back to his senses and first looked at Lu Bei in disbelief, then took out a Qiankun Ring and said, "This item was sent to me by an elder from the inner sect of the Holy Land, who asked me to personally deliver it to Sect Master Lu."
"It's mysterious, just opening a seal."
Lu Bei took the ring and scanned it with his mind. His expression suddenly changed. He clenched his fist and coughed lightly: "Someone, show the guest away."
"???" x2
Master Bu Zi was sent away by the little fox with a confused look on his face. Zhu Xiu Shi was shameless and knocked Hu Xuan unconscious with his chest. He came to Lu Bei with a grin on his face, wanting to see what treasures were in the Qiankun Ring.
Sealing technique.
Lu Bei pulled his hand away, unmoved by the beauty, and disappeared on the spot in a flash.
"Damn it, you took the benefits but didn't do anything, as if I'm so precious!"
Zhu Xiushi gritted his teeth and saw Hu Xuan, who was dizzy beside him. He raised his hand and pinched his face, then took out a white towel and covered his eyes.
The second round begins.
In Qingqiu Palace, the sound of laughter was heard again.
…
In the quiet room, Lu Bei activated the barrier to conceal his aura and stepped into his own little world.
The acquired spiritual treasure that Emperor Ji promised has arrived.
The Earth-Hate-Heaven Bow!
The bow is called the Hate Heaven Bow after the head and tail are cut off, and comes with a bottle of phoenix blood, which can be used to unlock the seal of the Fengque Arrow.
The name Hate Sky Bow is not very elegant. It is asking for trouble in front of God and it is unlikely to end well. Lu Bei seriously suspects that Emperor Ji is trying to sow discord and prevent heaven and man from achieving unity.
Fortunately, Phoenix blood is very valuable. As an upper-class noble among the flat-haired beasts, it is of great use to him.
Lu Bei held the phoenix blood in his hand, and the hot waves hit his face. The temperature was frighteningly high. He closed his eyes, raised his head, and swallowed it in one gulp.
Indeed, the Phoenix and the Qilin are at the same level. The Black Qilin cannot pass the level of the Golden-Winged Dapeng and cannot build a nest on the second floor of the Demon Tower. The same would probably be true if the Phoenix were to replace it.
But you have to try everything before you can make a conclusion.
In the myth, the phoenix obtains both yin and yang energies and gave birth to the peacock and the roc. According to the order of precedence, the phoenix is qualified to build a nest on the third floor of the Demon Tower.
"Gulp!"
"Okay, it's hot, it's burning..."
Lu Bei's throat was burning, fire was gushing out of his mouth, and his eyeballs were burned red.
The Demon-Evolution Tower obtained the blood of the phoenix, and waves of fire gathered on the third floor. The blood clotted into a ball and expanded rapidly, and bones and veins were generated one after another. Covered with flesh, blood and feathers, the phoenix, which was surrounded by golden and red light, raised its head and spread its wings.
Snap!
The golden-winged Roc on the first floor shook the Demon-Evolving Tower, waking up Kunpeng on the second floor. The latter glanced upstairs and flipped over to scatter the monsters.
roll!
Lu Bei: (一`′一;)
"Great, great!"
Looking at the bright side, he was not wrong about the bird, the Kunpeng bloodline on the second floor has greater potential.
