Chapter 174 A violent rise and counter-kill (long chapter)
Faced with Li An’s initiative, Jiang Rilan, the patriarch, pondered for a moment, then smiled and said:
“Wu Hufa has such a heart, which shows his loyalty to my Jiang family, but now that the conquest of the Li Dynasty is imminent, the family really cannot do without Wu Hufa…”
worried!
Over the years, although Li An has cultivated and treated Jiang Ruoli “with painstaking efforts”, and also has a lot of property in Jiang’s family, it seems that he has taken root in Jiang’s image, but…
After all, it is an outsider.
Need to guard against.
In case Li An left and never came back, where would the Jiang family go to find the divine bird?
“To be honest with the Patriarch, there are many important treasures among my goods this time, and if Jiang Ribai can’t be killed, I’m afraid my property will be panicked in the future…”
Li An continued, “It’s just that after Wu left, Shenniao is currently in retreat, and may need to ask the Patriarch to take care of it…”
Jiang Rilan’s heart moved, what does this mean, if Li An goes out, he won’t bring the magic bird?
Then it doesn’t matter!
Jiang Shi didn’t care about Li An at all.
He thought about it for a while, and then said reluctantly: “Okay, since Protector Wu is determined to kill Jiang Ribai, then I can’t stop him. If there is any need for Protector Wu, just tell me!”
Li An nodded, and immediately made a lot of requests, taking the opportunity to ask Jiang for two third-tier magical artifacts, a few third-tier pills, and some middle-tier spirit stones.
After all, no matter what, he is also doing things for the Jiang family.
Back at Nanling Peak, after Li An made some arrangements, he sent the divine bird to the retreat place of Nanling Peak.
Only then was he able to leave the Jiang family.
……
Leaving from Jiang’s Xingluoshan, Li An was quite emotional.
It has been decades since leaving Dali to entering Jiang’s!
Now he is a Jindan real person, far surpassing his previous life, looking at the entire Yan Kingdom, he can also be counted as a figure, and his strength is enough to dominate one side.
It is not difficult to open up a great city of cultivating immortals, or a power, family, etc.
Actually, Ang Lee didn’t think about it.
After all, the cultivation of Jindan cultivators really consumes too much resources.
Without the foundation of the industry and the support of power, the tens of thousands of low-grade spirit stones consumed every month are enough to make him worry.
Moreover, Jiang’s death is imminent, so what should Li An do?
“Find a place to stay first—”
After thinking about it, Li An still buried this thought in his heart and didn’t think about it for the time being.
Even if it is really necessary to establish a force to support itself, it cannot be in the country of Yan, near Da Li.
Run as far as you can.
……
He didn’t leave directly, but first lived in Beixing City at the foot of Xingluo Mountain for a long time, and then mixed into the incoming cargo convoy of a certain industry of his own, and set off together.
Avoid people’s eyes and ears!
This is not to guard against the Jiang family, but to guard against Tan Qingxue.
Who knows if that woman is still staring at Jiang Shi?
After all, Li An had already offended her to death, and before she left, she had left a vow to avenge her revenge in the future. Even though Li An and her were once inseparable, that little relationship might not be worth the huge benefits on the way to immortality.
Li An thought about it carefully. Although the things on her body had extraordinary origins, their current strength should still be lower than that of Nascent Soul.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have to run away, and she would directly wipe out the entire Jiang family. What kind of divine bird doesn’t belong to her?
From this point of view, Li An is not that afraid of her, and should be able to handle her when she really appears.
But it is best not to be discovered by the other party, and be careful to sail for ten thousand years.
Even though Li An is Jindan now, he will definitely not be complacent, so as not to capsize in the gutter.
After following his convoy away from North Star City for a long time, Li An was expected to have escaped from Jiang’s sight, so Li An found a chance to leave. In a forest where no one was there, he used magic skills to change his appearance, conceal his breath, and then left quickly.
Flying directly in the air, the light belonging to the true alchemy cultivator flashed across the sky, and the wind whistled in his ears.
Golden core cultivators travel thousands of miles a day!
……
half a month later.
Li An has traveled a distance of [-] miles and arrived at another area of Xiling Yuanzhou.
In fact, even if it is an alchemy cultivator, it is not so easy to fly a distance of [-] miles, especially Li An, who is in the early stage of alchemy, generally does not travel long distances.
Flying consumes a lot of spiritual energy.
However, Li An’s spiritual power continued to flow, and the power of the golden core was far superior to ordinary ones, so it went smoothly.
Moreover, Ang Lee also visited many countries and cities along the way to analyze the situation.
The main purpose of his trip this time is to find a safe place to practice. As for where to choose, it needs to be determined according to the actual situation.
But he got nowhere along the way.
In Li An’s view, since Shangguan Shengxian is expanding his power, the cultivation forces in these countries may not be able to resist.
“Sky Fiend Mountain Range!”
In front of you, a vast mountain range has appeared in front of you.
Just falling in this area does give people a sense of chaos.
The spiritual energy in the air is very chaotic and mixed, and there is a vague evil spirit!
The Tiansha Mountains are endless, and it is said that the depths are connected to the old land of the Yaozu. Regarding the old land of the Yaozu, all the maps that Li An knows are blank.
Human cultivators, almost no one can go deep into it.
This mountain range is extremely dangerous, and the chaotic spiritual energy is not suitable for cultivators to practice, and it is connected to the old place of the Yaozu. Although the Yaozu has been silent for many years, no force dares to come here to establish a practice system.
It is precisely because of this that this place can become a vacuum!
This is also Ang Lee’s key candidate.
First, this place is the farthest away from the major forces, and Shangguan Shengxian’s siege will not touch this place.
Second, compared with the cities and kingdoms formed by human beings, the resources here are not occupied by powerful forces, and there may still be some opportunities.
Of course there are dangers too.
After all, if Li An wants to find a suitable place to practice outside, it is almost doomed. He has to repeat the process of entering Jiang’s house, and he is not trusted.
Where there is a good spiritual vein, let people take it!
In addition, there is a third benefit. The evil spirit here is extremely harmful to ordinary cultivators, but for Li An, who is practicing magic arts, this is an excellent source. Demons and evil spirits are connected in the same vein. Absorb evil energy and transform it into magic energy.
But this is only a preliminary consideration, Li An is not sure, if it is really too dangerous here, then forget it…
Dog lives matter.
Li An thought about how to get in.
His goal is the “Tiansha City” inside the Tiansha Mountains.
Tiansha City is a city formed by cultivators hiding in the Tiansha Mountains. The outside world’s understanding of the Tiansha Mountains is almost all obtained from this city.
After all, where there are people, profits can be generated and business can be done. The cultivators in the Tiansha Mountains also have the need to trade with the outside world, and the Tiansha City was born in this way.
But it is not easy to enter the Tiansha Mountains, and the road in the middle is very dangerous.
“This fellow Taoist!”
Li An was contemplating himself, when suddenly a group of people came from a distance, and the leader greeted Li An.
This group of people was escorting supplies, and the leader of the old man pretended to be an alchemy, walked up to Li An, cupped his hands and said with a smile: “Fellow Daoist, are you going to Tiansha City?”
Li An didn’t answer: “Your Excellency?”
“The old man is the Song Dynasty of the Song family in the Tianling City of the Moon Kingdom. He was ordered by the family to escort a batch of supplies to Tiansha City.”
The old man introduced himself, “Fellow Daoists should also be going to Tiansha City, right? Why don’t you come with us?”
“The road to the Tiansha Mountains is rugged, and there are many ferocious spirit beasts in the mountains, and even the third-order beasts often appear. It will be very dangerous if you are alone.”
Li An heard this, but shook his head, “Thank you – but, I’m not planning to enter Tiansha City.”
Seeing his cold rejection, Song Chaozhong didn’t say much, but cupped his hands, turned around and took his people away.
Seeing this, Li An groaned slightly, and then quickly followed, “This fellow Taoist—”
“Why, Fellow Daoist changed his mind?”
Song Chaozhong smiled.
“Yes, I changed my mind.”
Li An smiled, “How about going to Tiansha City with you? Thank you very much.”
Song Chaozhong nodded, “That’s great! To be honest, fellow Taoists, the reason why I invited you together is because I want more people to be more safe. The road to Tiansha City is extremely difficult. The powerful Jiexiu and bandits are still here. There are ferocious beasts, life and death are unpredictable every time…”
He sighed, but before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt something, his expression changed, and he saw a fire python suddenly burst out, attacking and killing him.
At the same time, his team was killed by a Tier [-] Air Explosion Talisman.
“you……”
Song Chaozhong tried his best to resist the fire python talisman, and the light of the magic weapon in his hand lit up, but at the same time, the two flying swords in Li An’s hand had already been cut out.
Song Chaozhong blocked the fire python talisman’s attack, but failed to block the cold air of the little ice sword. A burst of frost condensed on his body, and the little black poison sword slashed down.
when!
There was a sound of metal impact, but the little black poison sword didn’t cut in. This Song Chaozhong has a third-order body protection magic weapon!
And Li An has already cut out with one palm——
Three yuan cut, cut the original body!
The wave of spiritual power seemed to turn into a 40-meter-long sword, which cut down suddenly. The old man tried his best to resist, but the clothes on his body, including the third-level body armor, were directly chopped to pieces by Li An.
Bang!
Song Chaozhong was directly cut into two by Li An.
“what……”
Song Chaozhong fell to the ground, screaming with horror on his face.
Of the dozen or so people he brought, only a few seriously injured were killed by Li An’s Tier [-] Qi Explosion Talisman.
“You, you Jiexiu… are bold!”
Song Chaozhong opened his mouth in fear, and his intestines flowed everywhere. Seeing Li An approaching, he subconsciously tried to escape with his hands.
Li An kicked him to the ground.
“I rob repair?”
Li An sneered, “You guys don’t act like this time, don’t be so stupid in your next life.”
After finishing speaking, he directly used the magic power to refine Song Chaozhong into a puppet.
He needs to get the memory of the Song Dynasty!
“No… you, you… ho ho…”
Song Chaozhong trembled all over, but he didn’t move in the end, and soon his eyes became numb and hollow.
Li An thought for a while, and after getting the memory he wanted, he beheaded the puppet with a single blow.
Turning around, he turned the remaining seriously injured cultivators into puppets one after another, searched their memories, and compared them with those in the Song Dynasty to avoid missing important information.
Then kill them all.
“It really is a group of robbery cultivators,”
Ang Lee’s judgment was not wrong.
When Song Chaozhong looked for him, he was already vigilant and noticed the evil spirit on Song Chaozhong and others.
In fact, they are also very skilled. They are obviously experienced. They used some things to cover up the evil spirit. Ordinary cultivators can’t really feel it, but they can’t escape the keen perception of Li An’s magic skill and the art of nourishing life and casting immortality.
Ordinary members of the Zongmen family, where does such a heavy evil spirit come from?
He refused, and Song Chaozhong turned around and left. Li An had two judgments at that time:
First, the middle-aged people in the Song Dynasty gave up his goal out of caution.
Second, if you are an ordinary person, even if you are cautious, if you really want to enter Tiansha City, most of them will quietly follow them to find the way in, and the people of Song Dynasty will lead the people who follow them into an ambush circle.
No matter what the purpose of the middle-class people in the Song Dynasty is, it shows that they are just introductions!
The ambush is still behind.
So, since this is the case, Li An will eat the introduction directly!
Anyway, he has magic skills, and he can directly get the information he wants.
Song Chaozhong and the others never expected that Li An would be so ruthless, and immediately violently beat them to death.
And after searching the memories of Song Chaozhong and others, Li An’s idea was also verified.
The real name of this fake alchemist is Chen Cai, the real “Song Chaozhong” has been killed by them, and then they pretend to be Song Chaozhong to find the target.
This group of Jiexiu specially ambushed Jiexie on the road leading to Tiansha City, led by two true alchemy practitioners!
Chen Tai is mainly responsible for scouting, leading the way, and leading people into the ambush circle.
“Tiansha City is indeed a lawless place…”
Li An couldn’t help feeling that the Tianling City in the Moon Country was only a few thousand miles away from Tiansha City, and the Song family was also a big family in Tianling City, but the troops they sent were directly intercepted and killed.
Moreover, it has not been a day since this group of tribulation cultivators are full of evil. This kind of thing is normal in Tiansha City.
Li An quickly cleaned up the battlefield, destroyed the corpses and wiped out the traces, and collected the storage bags of this group of people along the way.
The spirit stones and all the good materials add up to about 11 low-grade spirit stones!
11 pieces of low-grade spirit stones are equivalent to 100 yuan of medium-grade spirit stones.
Enough for Li Ang’s expenses for a month.
Li An packed all of these into his “Na Ring”.
This ring is a second-order space magic weapon, which he got from Jiang after he became an elder protector. The space is as big as seven or eight rooms, which is far better than a storage bag.
Although it is only a second-tier magic weapon, it is also very precious, because it involves space, and ordinary second-tier refiners cannot refine it, and its price is similar to that of a third-tier magic weapon.
Generally, only real people are eligible to wear this ring.
In order to conceal his identity, Li An hid Najie in his arms, and hung a few storage bags around his waist to hold some unimportant things.
Then, Li An began to step into the forest.
Entering Tiansha City from the outside world, there are still two days to go.
In many dangerous places along the way, the group of robbers set up ambushes. If the incoming person is strong, they will stand still. Once the incoming person is weaker, they are destined to be eaten by them.
Li An is not afraid of confronting two true alchemy practitioners head-on, but he is still unwilling to waste resources and energy. Besides, who knows if these two true alchemy have any background?
If you can’t fight, don’t fight!
Stability comes first.
……
According to the memories of Chen Cai and Jiexiu, Li An spent five days avoiding the dangerous places along the road before finally crossing the mountains and seeing the Tiansha City surrounded by mountains.
This famous chaotic city doesn’t even have a city wall, but many buildings are gathered together, most of which are rough in style and piled up with huge stones.
“No wonder no force has come here to gain a foothold…”
Li An couldn’t help being awed. Although he had traveled through the mountains in the past five days, even though he had the memory of an old fox like Chen Cai, he still encountered many dangers.
Passed by a Tier [-] beast twice!
Fortunately, he used the Yangming Zhuxian formula to cover up his aura, and he avoided it.
He couldn’t help but start to wonder, could anyone really survive in the Tiansha Mountains?
Walk into Tiansha City.
What reassures Li An is that the order in the city is much better. After all, a trading environment is good for everyone. There are several experts in the Tiansha Mountains who have made rules. Can’t wait any longer.
It is also because of this that many forces from the outside world also have establishments here, so the city as a whole looks similar to the outside world.
The Jiang family got the news of Jiang Ribai from the point where the “Yue Lingzong” of the Yue Kingdom was established here.
In fact, under normal circumstances, Li An should go to the shop of Yue Lingzong to inquire about Jiang Ribai’s situation, but Li An didn’t do that.
First, Li An didn’t know the details of that shop, what if the other party cooperated with Jiang Ribai, deliberately waited for Jiang’s people to come to the door, and then killed people to seize the treasure?
Second, Li An didn’t really come to find Jiang Ribai, Jiang Ribai’s life and death, what did he have to do with him?
The most important thing is to inquire about the news and find out the rules here.
Li An wandered around the city for a day, but the information he got was relatively basic.
After thinking about it, it is estimated that going to a small trade fair of the real pill level will get the most useful information.
……
Li An’s appearance had turned into that of a middle-aged man. According to Chen Cai’s memory, he walked around first, and then came to a huge stone temple.
This stone temple is ungarrisoned, but it is a trading point!
Generally speaking, only true alchemy cultivators can trade here.
Li An stepped into it and waited silently. In the evening, finally a few people entered the place.
A bearded man with a strong evil spirit, he did not hide it.
An old man with wicked brows and mouse eyes, his peach blossom eyes were flushed, and there seemed to be a vague smile on the corner of his mouth.
There is also a middle-aged man in a purple robe with a majestic face.
All three are real alchemy masters!
“A new fellow Taoist has come,”
The peach-eyed old man glanced at Li An, smiled slightly, and said nothing.
Several people are still waiting.
Finally, another beautiful woman wearing a black veil and a black dress walked into the stone temple, and the transaction officially started.
“I’ll come first, Mrs. She, have you refined your Evil Elixir? I can’t wait!”
The bearded man spoke directly, staring at the woman in the black dress.
Mrs. Heiqun chuckled lightly, “Don’t worry, everyone has it this time… Well, this new fellow Taoist, you didn’t come last time, so there is no need for the pill.”
Li An cupped his hands, “No, thank you.”
However, his heart trembled slightly. These people seemed to have a special liking for Qing Sha Pill.
Qingsha Pill can clear away the evil spirit accumulated in the practitioner’s body.
These people should have lived here for a long time, so they have to clean up their evil spirits regularly?
Ang Lee guessed.
Everyone traded one after another, and soon it was Li An’s turn.
“I have a third-rank rejuvenation pill, and a third-rank talisman. I just want some news.”
Li Andao: “Where is the third-order spirit vein without a master?”
When everyone heard the words, they all pondered slightly.
Looking for a third-order spirit vein?
It seems that this is a newcomer…
“The third-order spiritual vein is so hard to find, but I do know one, hehe…”
The peach-eyed old man opened his mouth and told Li An a location through voice transmission in secret words.
Li An nodded, and said: “Fellow Daoist, can you swear a poisonous oath to prove that this news is true?”
The peach-eyed old man smiled and immediately swore in public.
Seeing this, the others also sent secret messages to Li An.
Li An knew that these locations should be real, but there must be something wrong!
It’s just that these people don’t say anything.
Li An cashed in one by one, he obtained the third-rank rejuvenation pill from Jiang’s, and there was no shortage of third-rank talismans, so he gave it out directly.
Soon, this transaction will dissipate.
Li An got up and left.
Not far from the Stone Temple, he discovered that “Madam She” had been following him.
“Friend Daoist She?”
Li An took the initiative to speak.
Mrs. She smiled, “Friend Daoist, you are new to the Tiansha Mountains and have entered a dangerous situation, don’t you know?”
Li An said: “Please enlighten me, Fellow Daoist She.”
Mrs. She said: “Gao Yi and the others told you the locations are nothing more than Shayue Valley, Zilang Peak, and Tiesha Tan, right?”
Li An shivered slightly and nodded.
“In these places, although there are indeed third-order unowned spiritual veins, you can’t even use them. Those pills and talismans of yours are all fed to dogs.”
Madam She smiled sweetly, “Whatever you want, I can tell you the way.”
Li An said: “What does Madam She want?”
