In a quiet hall.
Sitting cross-legged on the futon, Lu Tiandu gently blew out a ball of baby fire from his mouth, slowly wrapping it around a large golden soybean bead floating in front of him, and slowly refining it.
I don’t know how long it took. Seeing that the last remaining small part of the Sky Corpse Bead was finally refined into a golden liquid by the infant fire, Lu Tiandu gently sucked it and the golden liquid slid in. stomach pouch.
As the Golden Muscle and Jade Bone Skill slowly operates, streams of golden air flow through the flesh and blood of Lu Tiandu, and are slowly absorbed by the muscles and bones.
Rich golden light burst out from Lu Tiandu's body. Lu Tiandu closed his eyes tightly and seemed not to notice anything strange. He remained motionless in cultivation...
The main hall where Lu Tiandu retreats to refine the Sky Corpse Pearl is naturally a residence set up by Xiaoji Palace in Jinjing. At this moment, in another main hall of this courtyard, on both sides of a jade table, two beautiful figures were gently sipping spiritual tea and chatting. They were the Bai sisters.
"More than half a year has passed, and there is still no trace of that person. Has that person completely disappeared?"
Bai Yaoyi frowned lightly and looked at the opposite side. Bai Mengxin said doubtfully.
“I think that person should be hiding. After all, the news of Master Xiong’s death has spread widely. Once that person hears the news, he may not dare to show up again in a short time! "
Bai Mengxin thought for a while and said, "I just don't know if the cold marrow has been sent to the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons. If it has been obtained by the demons in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons, we may not have the possibility of getting it back... If so, the matter of recovering the treasure can only end here!”
After hearing what Bai Mengxin said, Bai Yaoyi also fell silent.
In the past six months, they mobilized the troops lurking near Jinjing and searched for a long time. Unfortunately, they found nothing. The man seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.
The most important thing is that there is no news from the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons that the cold marrow has been obtained by them.
If this news is confirmed, they will no longer have to worry about this matter.
“Forget it, let’s just report this matter to the Palace Master and the Great Elder truthfully. The auction will be held soon, and we’ll see if we can come across something useful to us!”
Bai Yaoyi suddenly smiled, her consciousness swept across the motionless hall, and said with a smile:
"Has Sister Mengxin found any useful information?"
" What? Are you really thinking about this Brother Lu?"
Bai Mengxin smiled slightly and naturally understood what her cousin meant. She sighed deeply in her heart when she looked at her pretty face, which was slightly red. Without showing anything, he continued:
“Brother Lu is very mysterious. Except for the two people who came to the door before, who should be his acquaintances, no one else has heard of this brother Lu. I haven’t found any useful information here..."
"Yes, the sea area is vast. Judging from the situation in the past six months, Brother Lu is also an ascetic cultivator. There must not be many people who know him."
Bai Yaoyi also nodded, looking very approving. , "I was talking about Taoism with Brother Lu before. Brother Lu's extensive knowledge and profoundness of Taoism are very admirable. Although Brother Lu is a casual cultivator, I guess he has also received orthodox inheritance..."
"It's a pity that those two people were hesitant about what we asked before for some reason, but I don't believe that Brother Lu is a treacherous and evil person..."
said Here, Bai Yaoyi suddenly smiled knowingly and remembered something interesting.
Bai Mengxin's eyes were also filled with color, and she nodded without saying anything more.
In the half month they had just arrived in Jinjing, after several discussions about Taoism, they were impressed by Lu Tiandu's profound knowledge of Taoism and magical powers and his familiarity with some ancient secrets during their chat.
After getting along with each other and Lu Tiandu's gift of treasure, she naturally discovered that her cousin was in love with her.
This is normal. After all, Brother Lu’s strange physique makes it easy for others to have a favorable impression of him.
Since this period of time, as Lu Tiandu prepares to retreat to refine the Sky Corpse Pearl on the eve of the auction, the two women, while tracing Han Marrow, also secretly explore relevant information about Lu Tiandu.
Unfortunately, only Dayan Shenjun and Han Li, who came to our door more than a month ago based on the mark left by Lu Tiandu, came to visit for a while and heard that Lu Tiandu was in retreat, leaving only a transmission note. , and left without asking for any useful information.
"Sister Mengxin, what do you think of Taoist Fellow Fucheng's invitation to cooperate in treasure hunting this time?"
Bai Mengyao suddenly remembered something, and after explaining it in detail, she asked Bai Mengxin.
"What this man said was vague, and I guess it involves some secrets. I heard that he has a bad relationship with other elders of Jiuyou Sect. If any ruins are discovered, it would be normal to invite others to explore together. "
Bai Mengxin pondered for a moment and said.
"I think so too. I have no enmity or enmity with this person, and he doesn't want to target me. I owed this wealthy Taoist friend a small favor before, so I can't refuse it. "My sister is much stronger than me in supernatural powers. Why don't I tell fellow Taoist Fu that you and I will go to the appointment together?"
Bai Yaoyi thought for a while and said.
Although Fucheng didn't say it clearly, it was obvious that this treasure hunt required a few people who knew everything about it. Now that her cousin was by her side, she naturally didn't want to go into danger alone.
"Sister, have you forgotten Brother Lu?"
Bai Mengxin smiled, "If Brother Lu can join us, this trip will be safe!"
"Words Even so, I just don’t know Brother Lu..."
Bai Yaoyi's eyes also flashed with excitement. With a master like Lu Tiandu accompanying her, she was naturally very relieved. Moreover, she had received the Sifang Feitian boots as a gift from Lu Tiandu before, and her life-saving ability had also improved a lot.
At this moment, a golden light flashed outside the hall, and a loud laughter came from the outside:
"Yao Yi, Meng Xin, what are you talking about? Does it have anything to do with me? ?”
“Ah, Brother Lu, are you out of seclusion?”
Seeing the energetic Lu Tiandu walking in from outside the hall, Bai Yaoyi’s gentle words were filled with excitement. .
"Yes, I happened to have finished refining a Sky Corpse Bead. Isn't it the eve of the auction, and I'm just leaving the customs."
Lu Tiandu smiled slightly and looked at the Bai sisters.
After the three of them arrived in Jinjing, there were still about seven months before the auction. After Lu Tiandu purchased a batch of elixir seeds and other available things, he got along with the Bai sisters again. Half a month later, I entered a short retreat.
After he came to Jinjing, he also secretly searched for Dayan Shenjun and Han Li. For some reason, they did not leave any traces. He simply left a mark outside for them to see. You will naturally come to him after arriving.
As for the girls in the harem, they should be traveling in other places. Jin Jing has not heard of the Yaochi Palace, but I think they will come to join in the fun on the eve of the auction.
Now that he had just refined a Sky Corpse Bead, Lu Tiandu was also looking forward to the other Sky Corpse Bead and the Blood Heart Pill left by King Xuan Ye.
After half a year of practice, he naturally understood that the Heavenly Corpse Pearl was indeed a rare body-refining holy object, and it could be taken repeatedly. It was indeed a good thing.
After refining these things, it is still possible to reach the fourth level of the Golden Muscle and Jade Bone Skill decades in advance.
“Hee hee, I have two things to tell you, Brother Lu!”
After asking Lu Tiandu to sit down, he poured some spiritual tea for Lu Tiandu, and then Bai Yaoyi said Come on.
Bai Mengxin, who was on the side, also looked at Lu Tiandu with a smile, which was naturally a bit more intimate than the coldness when they first met.
The three of them chatted like old friends they had known for a long time.
After listening to the transmission notes that Bai Yaoyi took out, Lu Tiandu smiled and said:
"It seems that my two classmates also arrived in Jinjing on the eve of the auction! Later I will I want to meet them.”
After giving the two sisters a brief introduction to the relevant information about Dayan Lord and Han Li, Lu Tiandu asked:
"Yaoyi, what is the other thing you are talking about?"
Sure enough, when Bai Yaoyi mentioned that Fucheng invited her to explore together in Chaoyun Prefecture in western southern Xinjiang three years later, and wanted to invite Lu Tiandu to accompany him. Afterwards, Lu Tiandu didn’t look strange at all. Instead, he frowned slightly and said softly:
“This is somewhat in conflict with my plan!”
“Ah, Brother Lu, what’s next? Is there something important?" Bai Mengxin asked curiously.
"No, it's not about me, it's also about you two sisters!"
Lu Tiandu looked at the two women and chuckled, "Before, you were busy chasing the lost treasure, and I didn't do it either. I said anxiously. Now that I heard that the purpose of your trip to Jinjing has come to an end, I am ready to tell you something!"
"Have you ever heard of something called 'Pui Ying'? Dan's elixir. It is said that this elixir also had a good reputation in the ancient barbaric period. It can not only strengthen the monk's Nascent Soul and cleanse the marrow of the Yi Jing, but also has great benefits in breaking through bottlenecks... This is the elixir recipe, you guys You can take a look!"
Lu Tiandu said, taking out a blue jade slip and handing it to the two girls.
“The key ingredient of this Baby Training Pill is called ‘Yin Zhi Ma’. After reading ancient books, I discovered that this spiritual creature could only be born in some strange place where yin generates yang. It fits this kind of geographical location, so I checked it out, and the Yin Yang Cave, known as one of the Seven Jedi, is very suitable.”
"Furthermore, the evil wind in Yin Yang Cave has a period of calm every twenty years. The most recent one was three years later. Originally, I wanted to invite Yaoyi and Mengxin to investigate with me after the auction. After all, if you can capture Yin Zhima and refine the Yin Training Pill, you two will most likely advance to the late Nascent Soul stage in the future..."
"I didn't expect that I had just come out of seclusion. , I heard that Yaoyi will also go on an expedition in three years, which conflicts with my plan!"
After hearing what Lu Tiandu said, the two women looked at the jade slips in their hands, and their hearts were broken. Everyone was a little excited and moved. Bai Yaoyi's beautiful eyes stared at Lu Tiandu with a bit of a wry smile, and smiled coquettishly:
"Brother Lu, you didn't tell me earlier, I thought Brother Lu You don’t want to go on an adventure with me!”
Hearing this coquettish tone, Bai Mengxin next to her didn’t know that her cousin vaguely regarded Lu Tiandu as her future Taoist companion. It’s over!
For some reason, she suddenly felt a little unhappy.
"Brother Lu has such a rare elixir and is willing to share it with our sisters. Mengxin also wants to thank you Taoist friend!"
Bai Mengxin bowed Yingying, and her tone became softer.
"Mengxin, you are so polite. Your sisters and I hit it off right away, so why should we be so polite!"
Lu Tiandu gently helped Bai Mengxin beside him, their skins were touching, and Bai Mengxin was charming His body trembled, and a few red clouds suddenly appeared on his pretty face. She quickly retracted her arms and fell silent.
"Yes, I also want to thank Brother Lu!"
Bai Yaoyi smiled, as if she didn't notice anything strange about her cousin, "I turned back and turned down Fellow Taoist Fu. Brother Lu will be by my side then. , as long as you find that Yin Zhima, wouldn't you just capture it?"
"Haha, you are more confident than me!"
Lu Tiandu also smiled.
Then the two women introduced to Lu Tiandu some information about Jinjing in the past six months. The biggest news among them was naturally the mysterious monk who killed the deputy master of the Ten Thousand Demons Valley, Master Xiong. .
Because a great monk who had been famous for thousands of years was suddenly beheaded, while everyone was discussing, they also mentioned the death of Cheng Buxiu, the second elder of Tianmo Sect, more than fifty years ago.
This incident also caused some waves among some of the top monks in the Jin Dynasty. For some reason, no one mentioned it again. More than fifty years passed in a flash, and suddenly another long-famous monk was beheaded, making many people feel that the atmosphere in the Great Jin Immortal World was a bit strange.
For some reason, after Master Xiong was killed, the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons seemed to make no move to catch the murderer, which made many people feel a little confused.
After chatting with the two women for a while, Lu Tiandu left the courtyard to look for God Lord Dayan and Han Li.
Although the two women knew from the mouths that some top monks probably already have a portrait of him as the person who killed the Bear Master, and the Ten Thousand Demon Valley must also know his identity, Lu Tiandu had no idea at all. Take it to heart.
Not to mention that this is the territory of the human race. In name, the Demonic Path has to protect the face of the royal family of Jin. How can it allow demon cultivators to come to Jin to cause trouble?
As for outside the city, Lu Tiandu wanted to take the initiative to catch fish, and see how many inner elixirs and flesh and blood of the demon cultivator the Ten Thousand Demons Valley could bring to him?
Of course this is all after the auction ends.
"Brother Dayan, Junior Brother Han, you are fine!"
Looking at the two people coming out of the small courtyard, Lu Tiandu smiled.
"You...are you already in the late Nascent Soul stage?"
God Lord Dayan's consciousness habitually scanned Lu Tiandu, as if he had just discovered something. He suddenly opened his eyes wide with a look of shock, "Sure enough, , seeing the blurry image of the man who killed Master Xiong, we guessed it was you, brother Lu, but today it was confirmed that you have indeed advanced to become a great monk, which is quite surprising!”
As he spoke, God Lord Dayan also had a look of sadness on his face.
A great monk who is over 200 years old, this is really unbelievable.
After all, the two people in the Jin Dynasty who are now known as the most capable of transforming into gods are only over 400 years old and have only advanced to become great monks.
Han Li was stunned when he heard what God Lord Dayan said, but he immediately came back to his senses and sighed:
"Congratulations, Senior Brother Lu!"
"Let's go, there is no surprise. Yes, let’s talk after we go in.”
In the hall, the two sides talked about their experiences after being separated in the past few years.
After hearing that Lu Tiandu broke through the late Nascent Soul stage in just one retreat after he separated from them, the two of them were filled with emotion.
When they heard that Lu Tiandu had killed King Xuan Ye in the Xueling Mountains and Master Xiong in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons, just to seize the Heavenly Corpse Pearl for body refining, the two of them were secretly stunned.
These two people are difficult to kill for ordinary great monks. When encountering a vicious person like Lu Tiandu, it can only be said that the outcome is doomed.
"Brother, you are very popular among the monks of the Jin Dynasty now!"
Recalling the information that the two of them came into contact with recently, God Lord Dayan also laughed.
Since the teleportation array from Tiannan to Luanxing Sea was opened, Lu Tiandu’s deeds in Tiannan and Luanxing Sea have become truly known.
Now, just a few years after Lu Tiandu came to the Great Jin Dynasty, he killed a great monk with one move. The two of them had to lament that under Lu Tiandu's great reputation, he didn't know how many more top monks' blood he had to bury?
God Lord Dayan suddenly remembered something, gave Lu Tiandu a thoughtful look, and said with a smile:
"This Dajin is really your blessed place, brother! Not only is it so fast Just advance to the late stage of Nascent Soul, and you will gain a lot along the way, right? Then the relationship between the sisters in Xiaoji Palace and the Taoist friends is very good, right?”
After hearing what the Lord Dayan said, Han Li Ye looked at Lu Tiandu with a strange expression.
This Senior Brother Lu will show mercy wherever he goes!
Two sisters who are in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, just think about it... tsk tsk!
“Do you believe me when I say we are good friends?”
Lu Tiandu chuckled.
Looking at the unbelieving looks on the two people's faces, Lu Tian laughed, "So, you see, you all have your own answers, why are you still asking me?"
"I do. I want to hear words denying your relationship from my brother!”
Lord Dayan smiled teasingly, not hiding his envious look.
“Forget it, there’s no point in envying me!”
Lu Tian shook his head, who told me that I was the man with golden fingers!
“Let’s get down to business! I heard some time ago that you two have done a lot of great things. How about it? I have collected all the rare materials I mentioned before for refining the puppets of the late Nascent Soul. "
Shenjun Dayan and Han Li naturally understood what Lu Tiandu said was the 'big thing' they had done, and he smiled and said:
"Except for one thing missing, we have collected everything else. Let's exchange it first!" (End of Chapter)
