Regarding the spread of his reputation, it happened faster than he thought.
There is an element of demon-swallowing boy in this.
Among his current reputations in the world of immortal cultivation in the Ming Dynasty, apart from the fact that he has a level of strength comparable to that of a peak monk in the middle stage of pill formation, the remaining one with the widest spread and greatest reputation is that he is the founder of Fallen Demon Valley. The demon-eating boy's friend.
The demon-swallowing boy doesn't have many friends.
Especially after forming a pill, you will make fewer friends.
There is a benefit after becoming famous. When the Li family monks go out for training, if they encounter danger, they can get out of danger after reporting their name and family.
Lu Shangqing stayed in Changqing Mountain for most of the day and chatted a lot with Li Qianqing. Although he was the one doing the talking most of the time, he left with satisfaction.
After Lu Shangqing left, Li Qianqing returned to his cave to continue practicing, striving to enter the late stage of pill formation as soon as possible.
The greater the reputation, the higher the corresponding strength required. Although Li Qianqing has met the requirements, it is still not enough for him.
……
In February of the twenty-fifth year of Qingli.
Changming Mountain is the cave with the richest aura.
At this moment, Li Xunming has just reached the peak of the early stage of pill formation.
After returning from his last trip to Fanyang Kingdom, Grandpa Thirteen told him to seize the time to improve his strength and prepare for the future Cangyun Realm.
Practice to break through to the middle stage of pill formation is only the first preparation stage for Li Xunming. If the breakthrough fails later, he feels that he should not go to Cangyun Realm.
"It is much easier to break through from the peak of the early stage of the formation of the pill to the middle stage of the formation of the pill than it is much easier to break through from the peak of the middle stage of the formation of the pill to the late stage of the formation of the pill..."
As soon as he reached the peak of the early stage of the formation of the pill, Li Xunming wanted to break through directly to the end of the formation of the pill. mid-term.
If he had not obtained the Cangyun Order and had not received the instructions from Grandpa Thirteen, he would not have reached the peak of the early stage of pill formation at this time. In these years of cultivation, he has used a lot of resources, but fortunately he has contributed enough. , in exchange for enough resources in the family library.
Compared with the previous thirty years, the resources for alchemy monk cultivation in the family treasury are now 80% cheaper.
The contribution points that family alchemy monks can get every year are many, which can fully support their daily ordinary practice.
The way he has practiced over the years requires more resources to support him.
“Let’s break through!”
After making up his mind, Li Xunming modified the sign outside the cave and began to make a formal breakthrough.
As long as he completes the breakthrough, there will be two monks in the family who are in the middle stage of pill formation.
Normally, it takes about one to two months for the peak to break through from the early stage of pill formation to the middle stage of pill formation.
In this way, Li Xunming stayed in seclusion for thirty-five days.
In late March, time comes to the end of spring.
"Successful!" Li Xunming's aura also changed at this time. This time, the process of breaking through from the peak of the early stage of pill formation to the middle stage of pill formation was very smooth.
After entering the middle stage of pill formation, Li Xunming first told Li Qianqing the news.
In the next thirty years, he will need to spend a lot of time studying and practicing, and strive to have a very obvious improvement in strength before entering the Cangyun Realm.
Some powerful secret techniques in the family need to be cultivated in the middle stage of pill formation. Now he has finally reached the standard. Among the contributions to fill the family library, he often goes out to practice and has also contributed a lot, but so far he has not contributed to the secret techniques. class.
These were brought out by Grandpa Thirteen.
And many of his contributions were concentrated in the foundation building stage. The main source of the spiritual arts, techniques, and secrets for forming pills in the pill forming stage was his thirteenth grandfather.
Compared with this opportunity, Li Xunming felt inferior. As time went by, he became more and more able to understand the reason why Grandpa Thirteen was so powerful.
"Cangyun Realm... I hope you won't disappoint me."
If there was no Cangyun Realm, he would have to go out and practice hard after his cultivation broke through to the middle stage of pill formation.
Due to the situation in Cangyun Realm, many of his plans to go out were canceled just to wait for this.
After the excitement passed, Li Xunming took out a blue-grey jade slip, placed it on his forehead, and absorbed the contents.
…
The top of Evergreen Mountain.
Li Qianqing sat on the stone bench and took a sip of spiritual tea. At this moment, a transmission note from Li Xunming appeared in front of him.
“Oh, it’s the middle stage of pill formation.”
Li Qianqing was a little surprised that Li Xunming entered the middle stage of pill formation at this time. He still remembered that Li Xunming had not reached the early stage of pill formation two months ago. The peak is almost there.
To break through to the middle stage of Dan Formation now, it means that Li Xunming started to break through directly when he reached the peak of the early stage of Dan Formation.
Many peak monks in the early stage of forming a pill will prepare more at this time, so as to have a greater chance of achieving a successful breakthrough in one go.
Li Qianqing originally wanted to say something, but after thinking about his behavior, he had no intention of preaching to Li Xunming.
Because he did it himself.
If you continue to preach when you have not done it yourself, it will be too easy for the other party to refute.
Of course Li Qianqing also knew that even if there was a chance to refute his preaching, they would generally not continue to refute, but would listen quietly.
The prestige he has built up in the family over the years is too high.
"Jiji."
As the voice came, a black shadow appeared on Li Qianqing's shoulder.
This mutant gold-eating rat followed Li Qianqing after Li Xingsheng passed away. Li Xingsheng and Shushu had not signed any contract, and it was Li Xingsheng's choice for Shushu to follow him.
Li Qianqing took out a spiritual stone and gave it to Shushu on his shoulder.
After the mutation, the lifespan of this gold-eating rat is much longer than that of many rat second-level monsters, but it will eventually have an end. Judging from the current life breath of the mutated gold-eating rat , Li Qianqing speculated that Shushu didn’t have many years left.
The monsters in the family now, except for the mutant gold-eating rat, are the flame turtles who have no contracts for their longevity.
If this flame turtle had not broken through to the third level before, it would have been transferred to Li Changlin to continue training, but after the third level, there is no need to have the same spiritual intelligence as an ordinary monk.
Whether it was Li Xingsheng's kindness or the Evergreen Mountain where he had food and drink, they were not the reasons why Flame Turtle Changshou could choose to leave.
Now even without the constraints of the contract, the Flame Turtle Changshou is still a monster of the Li family.
“Let’s play.”
"Jiji."
For some years, Li Qianqing had no intention of letting the mutant gold-eating rat continue to explore the spiritual mines. In addition to the fact that their Li family now has a lot of spiritual mines, the more important reason was that Li Qianqing wanted this The hero lived the rest of his life comfortably.
September of the same year.
It’s another annual day for the Li family to test their spiritual roots.
Nowadays, many children in the Li family have to test their spiritual roots every year. At this time of year, more monks are needed to engage in testing spiritual roots.
Nowadays, there are not only mortals of the Li family in Xiangshui County, but also in other counties. However, there are not many mortals of the Li family in other counties at present, and most of them are concentrated in Xiangshui County.
As the royal family of the Qing Kingdom, the Li family has produced no fewer than twenty monks every year in recent years, and among them, there are basically two foundation-building monks with dual spiritual roots every year.
Anren City.
As the Li family became the royal family, the original Anren County gradually developed into a large city, and now it is Anren City.
Originally, Anren County was the center of Anren City. At this moment, the mortal children of the Li family in Anren City, aged between nine and eleven, were lining up to take the spiritual root test.
The monk in charge of the first round of testing was Du Li Jiazhong.
"Next." Li Zhongxing has so far inspected nearly three hundred children. Four of them passed his first round of tests, but none of them had spiritual roots in the second round of tests.
"Li Yongfeng, put your right hand here."
Nine-year-old Li Yongfeng nodded his little head and obeyed. He knew that these were the immortals of the family, and After passing two rounds of tests, you can also become an immortal.
The test officially begins.
Li Zhongxing’s spiritual power began to travel throughout Li Yongfeng’s body.
He was about to say something just now, but his eyes widened immediately and he looked at Li Yongfeng in disbelief.
Originally, he wanted Li Yongfeng to leave and let the next test child come in, but when he was about to withdraw his spiritual power, he found that his recovered spiritual power was less than half.
At the sixth level of Qi Refining, if he only lacks a little bit of spiritual power, he may not be sensitive, but if he directly loses half of his spiritual power, he can detect abnormalities as long as he is not too careless.
"Brother Zhongxing, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, you test it first." Li Zhongxing pulled Li Yongfeng up and said, "Follow me."
Li Yongfeng nodded, and then In this way, Li Zhongxing pulled him to the next room.
Li Qinghong sat in the room.
Li Qinghong, who is on the ninth level of Qi Refining, is responsible for the second round of spiritual root testing. So far, no monk with spiritual roots has been tested.
"Zhongxing, why did you come in? What happened?"
"Aunt Qinghong, please test him."
"What's so special about him?" Li Qinghong asked, just passing For their first round of testing, they just let these children in without Li Zhongxing personally bringing them in.
"Let me tell you, when I tested him just now, I only recovered 95% of his spiritual power, and half of his spiritual power seemed to disappear out of thin air."
" What!”
Li Qinghong looked at Li Yongfeng next to Li Zhongxing in surprise. He had lived for almost sixty years and had been involved in testing spiritual roots for more than thirty years. This was the first time she had heard of such a situation.
She wants to verify it first.
"Yongfeng, right? Come here and give me your hand."
"Yeah." Li Yongfeng, who sensed that something big had happened, felt very special at this moment and was likely to directly Become a Rishi.
Li Qinghong tested Li Yongfeng, and the test time was three times longer than that of other monks. Judging from the test, Li Yongfeng definitely did not have spiritual roots.
According to Li Zhongxing, the most important step is to take back the physical and spiritual power that wandered around Li Yongfeng.
“It’s true!”
When Li Qinghou recovered her spiritual power, she also noticed that her spiritual power was less, but her missing spiritual power was far less than half.
She guessed that it was because she was at the ninth level of Qi refining, and Li Zhongxing was only at the sixth level of Qi refining.
"The spiritual power should have been absorbed by this little guy." Li Qinghong, who made this speculation based on his experience of living for almost sixty years, felt that his speculation was probably correct.
"Aunt Qinghong, what should we do now?"
"What else can we do, of course, inform the ancestor of this special situation."
"Now?"
"You go out and continue the test first, and wait until all the children in Anren City have finished the test."
"Yes."
After hearing this, Li Zhongxing quickly went out to continue testing.
The current Li family is different from the previous Li family. It is said that in Xiangshui County, even in the entire Qing Kingdom, no monk would think of intercepting their carriage transporting spiritual children. This happened hundreds of years ago.
Therefore, there is no need to worry when such a situation occurs. After testing all the children between the ages of nine and eleven in Anren City, she, Li Qinghong, is taking Li Yongfeng to the family ancestral land to find the patriarch Li Qianqing.
"Yongfeng, wait here first."
"Okay."
It's almost dusk.
Li Qinghong returned to Changqing Mountain with her two children. Except that Li Yongfeng could not find out the reason through testing, the other family child was a monk with three spiritual roots.
After settling another family child, Li Qinghong took Li Yongfeng to the patriarch's cave.
After knocking on the stone door of the cave, the stone door slowly opened upwards soon.
“Clan leader.” Li Qinghong shouted immediately after seeing Li Qianqing himself.
"Clan leader."
Li Yongfeng saw this and followed Aunt Qinghong and spoke.
Taking a carriage all the way here, Li Qinghong taught Li Yongfeng something, and now Li Yongfeng does it.
“Tell me about the situation.” Li Qianqing said directly upon seeing this.
"Yes, clan leader." Li Qinghong nodded, and quickly told the reason why she came to see Li Qianqing, "While testing the spiritual roots in Anren City..."
Li Qinghong mainly talked about what happened, focusing on the time when the spiritual roots were tested, and his guess that their spiritual power was absorbed by Li Yongfeng during the spiritual root testing.
“Oh.”
Li Qianqing looked at Li Yongfeng and already had some ideas in his mind.
He still needs to test it carefully before he knows the specific situation.
“Yongfeng, come to me.”
"Yes, patriarch."
Li Yongfeng glanced at Li Qinghong, and when he saw Li Qinghong nodded, he immediately came to Li Qianqing's side.
After careful testing for about three breaths.
Li Qianqing already understood.
Li Yongfeng is really a spirit-eating body!
After listening to Li Qinghong's explanation, Li Qianqing had four guesses in his mind. Among them, Li Yongfeng was the most likely to have a spirit-eating body. After this test, it turned out that the demon-eating boy also had a special physique and a spirit-eating body. Monk.
In addition, with some means, he also tested Li Yongfeng's spiritual root.
Water and Fire Spiritual Roots!
With the dual spiritual roots and the spirit-devouring body, after Li Yongfeng successfully builds the foundation, he will automatically become the core-forming seed in the family.
"I already know the situation. Yongfeng is a dual spiritual root monk with a special physique. You can take him down first." Li Qianqing said to Li Qinghong.
"Yes."
As expected, it still depends on the ancestor, and it will be tested as soon as it is tested. As for what kind of special physique Li Yongfeng has, the ancestor did not say, and Li Qinghong did not ask. She couldn't even understand this, even if the old She might not understand what Zu said about his special physique.
‘The devil-swallowing boy...’
Li Qianqing thought for a while and quickly took out a transmission talisman.
He decided to contact the Demon-Swallowing Boy. After this transmission note passed, the Demon-Swallowing Boy would definitely appear in front of him as quickly as possible as long as he was not practicing in seclusion. (End of chapter)
