Five Immortals Gate

It's just that Elder Li rarely shows up. Even when he occasionally meets sect disciples, he never says much to others, giving people the impression of being very taciturn.

Usually, after smiling and nodding, he would quickly leave to mind his own business, leaving the disciple no chance to say anything more.

But Li Yan is not the kind of aloof being who is aloof and cannot be looked up to. The disciples of his sect who meet him all know that he speaks kindly and does not have the indifference to reject people thousands of miles away.

This made many female disciples have wild imaginations, but Li Yan never got close to any female disciple. He treated all male and female disciples equally.

Li Yan quickly landed in front of his cave, and just when he was about to open the door of the cave, Shangguan Tianque's voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

"Elder Li, can I go over and bother you for some time? There are some things I need to discuss with you."

After half a cup of tea, Li Yan was in the cave.

Shangguan Tianque's figure has appeared here. This time, Ren Mianyu did not come with him.

After the two sat down, Li Yan asked straight to the point.

"I've been busy recently, so I asked the sect master to wait. If you have anything to say, please tell me."

Shangguan Tianque smiled slightly.

"Hahaha... It's not a big deal. I plan to go to the 'Endless City' in three months.

It's just that there may be certain risks in this trip, so at least two people need to go together. But in this case, one person in the sect must be left to guard the sect.

Therefore, you can either trouble Elder Li to come with me; or ask Elder Li to take the trouble to guard the safety of the sect for a period of time, which is estimated to be more than a month. "

Shangguan Tianque did not go around the bush this time and directly stated his intention.

"Oh? Go to the 'Endless City', that city 340,000 miles northeast of here?"

Li Yan had seen this place on the map before, but because he recently went out to explore the locations, they were all in the southeast and northwest directions, and the roads were not close, so he had never been there.

"It's right there. It seems that Elder Li has become familiar with the surrounding environment recently. This is of great benefit to monks like us, hehehe..."

Shangguan Tianque nodded with a smile. As for Li Yan's recent outings, he also knew his purpose.

Even if you are familiar with the environment, at least if there is a fight in this area, it will be more advantageous to escape.

After Li Yan heard the words, he just pondered for a moment before speaking again.

"It's better for me to accompany my fellow Taoist. I'm not familiar with the affairs of the sect. If something happens, I might make some mistakes in handling it. That would be bad!"

"Oh? Elder Li is willing to take this trip, but this trip involves a lot of risks."

Shangguan Tianque had a look of surprise on his face when he heard Li Yan's words, but deep in his eyes, there was a flash of appreciation.

Li Yan was really thoughtful. Although he seemed to have given two choices, he actually hoped that he would choose the first one.

First of all, they have not yet handed over control of the sect-protecting formation to the other party, which is also the most normal approach for each sect.

The sect-protecting formation is a sect's last baseline defense. Generally, the control will only be in the hands of the Supreme Elder or the sect leader, in order to reduce the risk of unpredictable crises in the dark.

Therefore, if Li Yan stays alone to guard the sect and does not have control over the formation, and if a strong person comes, he will not be able to fully unleash the true power of the sect's formation once he is defeated. In that case, the sect's foundation will be destroyed. It's dangerous.

Secondly, Li Yan was left in the sect. Although he had performed very well before and was completely harmless to the "breaking army", when it came to

\u003c/di\u003e

At the end of the day, Shangguan Tianque and the other two are still a little afraid.

If Li Yan chooses to leave this one behind, Shangguan Tianque will find other excuses later and point out that Li Yan needs to go with him.

For example, after a few days, he could send another message to Li Yan and find a reason to say that Ren Yanyu was suddenly involved in important matters and could not leave the sect, etc. What could Li Yan say.

Li Yan was so smart, as soon as he heard it, he immediately knew his choice.

Moreover, the reasons he gave seemed reasonable to outsiders, but what he said about handling sect affairs was actually specifically told to Shangguan Tianque.

Let Shangguan Tianque understand that he, Li Yan, has no other thoughts about "breaking the military gate".

More than 90% of the affairs that the sect handles on a daily basis will not disturb the Yuanying-level elders, but are all handled by the following Jindan monks.

Once the Nascent Soul-level elders are alerted, it means that it is a vital event, even a matter of life and death for the sect.

When Li Yan said it like this, Shangguan Tianque also knew that he knew his intention. Both parties were smart people and could reveal it at the first glance.

"But I don't know what kind of risk it is? In other words, does Li know what the purpose of going here is?"

Li Yan asked calmly. The other party said there was danger, and he wanted to know the reason.

Shangguan Tianque did not answer immediately this time, but fell into thinking, as if he was weighing whether to speak immediately.

Li Yan was not in a hurry. His face was calm and he had already made a guess in his mind, but he had no idea for a while.

However, it was only about ten breaths later that Shangguan Tianque finally spoke.

"It's not that I'm worried too much, but this matter is of great concern. In fact, this time I went there to auction two four-thousand-year-old 'Kong Silver Grass'. This news was secretly passed on by a friend. I just found out through the letter.

Of course, whether the final result can be auctioned is still unknown.

But what I'm worried about is that if the auction is successful, I might be ambushed by others on the way back, so I have to be very careful. "

"The 'Kong Silver Grass' has grown side by side for four thousand years?"

Li Yan listened to the other party's explanation and thought about it in his heart.

In order to study the Fragmentary Poison Body in the Demon Sect, he read through almost all the medicinal herbs books.

Although he is not good at refining alchemy, he still thinks that he knows a lot about most of the medicinal herbs in the lower world, even the extinct spiritual herbs, at least he has heard the names.

But he had never heard of the name of this medicinal herb mentioned by Shangguan Tianque, and he didn't know its use.

However, in a flash of thought, Li Yan vaguely guessed the function of this herb, so he glanced at Shangguan Tianque and nodded.

Shangguan Tianque looked at Li Yan thoughtfully, knowing that the other party might have guessed something.

Now that he has explained it, he just wants to show his trust in him, and it will not be easy to hide this matter.

After Li Yan knew the name of the herb, he would check it carefully later and he would know the purpose of the herb, and he would also know his intention.

If we don't tell him, the most we can guarantee is that Li Yan has been kept in the dark in the past few months and on the way to the past, and he will definitely know it when he gets to Fangshi Auction House.

But this might make Li Yan dissatisfied, so he gave an explanation.

But as far as he is concerned, he still doesn’t want to give up in advance

Li Yan knew that after all, if he stated his purpose in advance, there would still be an extra risk, and it would more likely affect the outcome of the auction.

If Li Yan hadn't asked, he wouldn't have explained it to the other party now.

"I didn't tell Elder Li directly before, but this matter is related to whether the sect can continue in the later period, so I still have some ties in my heart, and I ask Elder Li to forgive me.

My life span is less than a thousand years, so I need to be promoted to God as soon as possible. Therefore, I have been preparing to refine the elixir that will help me break through.

And this strain of 'Kong Yin Cao' is the main medicinal ingredient I need. Once this news falls into the ears of some enemies, Elder Li can guess the consequences. "

Shangguan Tianque looked apologetic, but in fact he still concealed something.

That means his lifespan is only about three hundred years, but he only said "less than a thousand years", which is actually correct.

He was afraid that Li Yan could guess Ren Yanyu's approximate lifespan from the time he said. After all, the age difference between the two of them was not too big, and this matter was not a secret.

At the same time, he also concealed another thing. He wanted to refine elixirs to assist in promotion. This was true, but not just one, but at least two.

The other one is for Ren Yanyu, who is also preparing to enter the realm of divine transformation.

It wasn't that he was guarding against Li Yan, but it was about the future development of "Breaking the Military Gate" and even its final outcome, so he had to be careful.

"Oh, I was a little reckless, please forgive me, fellow Taoist Shangguan!"

Li Yan immediately bowed his hands in apology. He actually had this kind of guess in his heart.

Immediately, Li Yan said again.

"In this case, I have to be prepared. I will not go out for the next three months. I need to retreat to recover from this outing. At that time, fellow Taoist Shangguan can just inform me before setting off."

Hearing what Li Yan said, Shangguan Tianque's heart moved.

"Li Yan is so careful in his conduct. Although he knew before that it was not good to ask about the purpose of going to Fangshi, he still asked. It was a sign that he was particularly concerned about his own safety.

And now that he said such words, he clearly told me that since he knew the purpose of his trip, he would only stay in the cave during this period. If other problems arise, it has nothing to do with him. "

Li Yan only said a few words, which made Shangguan Tianque's understanding of him improve a lot. Li Yan considered it carefully, and even he didn't think of it until this moment.

"Elder Li, the sect will not let you spend your money in vain. Here are 30,000 high-grade spiritual stones, please keep them.

Since the items I purchased this time may require a lot of resources from the sect, and the 'Capturing the Dragon Sect' was incorporated into the sect not long ago, the remuneration I can offer at the moment is only so much. I'm really sorry. !

But please rest assured, Elder Li, the profits from the 'Capture the Dragon Sect' are getting better and better, and the sect will definitely not be stingy with Elder Li in the future. "

While Shangguan Tianque was speaking, he had already taken out a storage ring, and then showed an apologetic smile to Li Yan.

In the world of immortality, even among monks from the same sect, everything must still be clearly distinguished.

Li Yan was stunned when he heard this. He knew that Shangguan Tianque would not let him suffer, but taking out 30,000 high-grade spiritual stones at once really surprised him.

In the lower realm, there are 30,000 high-grade spiritual stones. Even the Demon Sect cannot easily come up with so many. They may have injured a lot of muscles and bones, and the body is painful.

\u003c/di\u003e

.

But the next moment, Li Yan took it calmly, not taking advantage of it because he was not an idiot.

Moreover, if he really felt that "Breaking the Army Gate" was the time when spiritual stones were needed, and if he refused politely, Shangguan Tianque might actually be a little worried.

A monk who is not greedy for spiritual stones does not exist in the world of immortality.

At the same time, judging from the fact that Shangguan Tianque immediately took out the storage ring, it seemed that the other party had already prepared for Li Yan to follow him.

"Thank you so much, sect master, it would be disrespectful for me to refuse!"

Li Yan put away the storage ring casually. When Shangguan Tianque saw this, a smile appeared on his face and he felt slightly relieved.

Next, after the two chatted for a few more words, Shangguan Tianque said goodbye and left. The moment after he flew away, Li Yan immediately closed the cave door and activated the formation restriction.

This made Shangguan Tianque, who had just flown into the air, put a smile on his face. Talking to smart people would save worry and effort.

Li Yan entered the training room and quickly began to sit cross-legged and meditate, but his Nascent Soul still had not fully recovered.

But because he has been here for decades, he has not been able to calm down and practice in the past few months. He is still anxious to learn about the news from the outside world and how to contact the lower world.

Therefore, during this period of time, he did not practice well.

Now that this incident has occurred, Li Yan immediately entered a state of cultivation and started running the Guishui Sutra with all his strength.

The cultivation of the Nascent Soul Realm is really nothing in the fairy world. Li Yan doesn't even dare to enter the "Celestial Demon Grassland" easily!

…………

Three months later, in a void, a ten-foot-long blue skylark was flying across the sky. On its back stood two people, none other than Shangguan Tianque and Li Yan.

Li Yan was looking at the blue skylark at his feet. It was a puppet flying magic weapon. Both in terms of appearance and rank, it was already very high for Li Yan's knowledge.

This is a puppet magic weapon specially used for flying. Its speed surprised Li Yan who was standing on it. He felt that it was several times faster than the "Cloud Chuanliu".

Nowadays, the flying speed of "Cloud Chuanliu" can no longer match Li Yan's own strength.

Even if Li Yan's current cultivation level is used with all his strength, the speed at most can be close to the peak flight speed of Yuanying in the early stage. This means that if Li Yan is in an emergency, he can only fly by himself.

If the "Cloud-Piercing Willow" is forcibly activated, it can barely maintain the flying speed of a mid-Nascent Soul monk for a period of time, but if the time is a little longer, the magic weapon will definitely collapse and dismember.

But Li Yan felt that the blue skylark under his feet was almost the same as his daily flying speed, which surprised Li Yan.

And while he was chatting with Shangguan Tianque, he was surprised to find that the speed of this blue skylark could be increased again.

Li Yan guessed that this was not only because the Qing Yunque puppet itself was of extremely high level, but also because it was currently embedded with mid-grade spiritual stones.

This point is also incomparable to "Cloud Chuanliu". That magic weapon was obtained by Shuang Qingqing during her travels. She has not modified the core formation in it, so there is no bonus.

While staring at Qingyunque, Li Yan already guessed in his mind that the speed of this flying magic weapon was already astonishing, and he didn't know whether the formation within it could support the activation of high-level spiritual stones.

"I wonder how much such a flying magic weapon costs?"

Li Yan thought in his heart.
