Mortal's journey to immortality

"Hahahaha..." Hou Jie laughed wildly. After more than a month of persistence, he finally succeeded in building the foundation and officially entered the foundation building period. From then on, he had the capital to establish himself in the world of immortality.

Put away your joy and go to Tingyu Mountain.

For more than a month, everything in the city lord's mansion was quiet except for the noise of a large number of children.

Since the last incident, Lu Shun spent a lot of money to recruit more than ten masters from the seventh level to the eighth level of Qi refining from several nearby cities to guard the entire City Lord's Mansion, which is now the City Lord's Mansion. It can be said to be impregnable.

Lu Shun specially ordered the goatee counselor to go door to door to inquire about the parents of the children. Finally, the four children were specially arranged to live in the most guarded room in the city lord's palace. Wang Lu lived in the wing next door.

When the little butterfly hatched, he seemed to have a friend to rely on and talk to, and his mood gradually became brighter.

The little butterfly woke up after a month of slumber. The twenty middle-grade spiritual stones in the spirit beast bag were also consumed by it, turning into twenty small dusty stones.

After waking up, the little butterfly was flying up and down in the house, so happy. He thought for a moment and said to the little butterfly: "Since I brought you back from the Jiuyue Secret Realm, the purple color on your body is better than the purple color on your body. If you are more gray, let’s call you Zijiu, okay?”

The little butterfly flew to his shoulder in an instant, tapped his face with its tentacles, and flew happily from Wang Lu's left shoulder to his right shoulder as if it had a name.

Wang Lu was so happy that he took Zi Jiu to the square outside the mansion. He said to Zi Jiu, "I don't know what you are capable of. How about Zi Jiu show it to you?"

Zi Jiu lay lazily on Wang Lu's left shoulder, indifferent to Wang Lu's words.

When Wang Lu saw this, he thought of Song Fengyu and couldn't help laughing: "It seems like bad luck, I took in a lazy guy."

After listening to Wang Lu's words, Zi Jiu's wings vibrated slightly in protest, and Wang Lu felt pain in his shoulders as if cut by a knife.

Wang Lu felt its pride, and Zi Jiu seemed unwilling to stay in the spirit beast bag. In desperation, Wang Lu had to weave a straw nest for it, put it inside, and put two eggs in the straw nest. A medium-grade spiritual stone for its growth.

Now Wang Lu has nowhere to look for the Spirit Beast Pill, and he doesn't know if Zi Jiu likes the Spirit Beast Pill. Little Butterfly naps a lot. After waking up, he basically sleeps deeply for about ten hours every day.

It's just that the spiritual stones were consumed too quickly. Two middle-grade spiritual stones were used up in five days. Fortunately, his family was still relatively rich. The sect rewarded him with a thousand high-grade spiritual stones, which is equivalent to one hundred thousand. It is a medium-grade spiritual stone. However, as his cultivation level improves and Zijiu grows, the cost of spiritual stones will increase. There is no need to worry about it now. You will need to use it carefully in the future.

Wang Lu smiled bitterly. He held two low-grade spiritual stones in his hands and began to practice. Although his magic power could not be increased, after each practice, he felt that certain acupuncture points and meridians in his body were still growing. It is opened, and the spiritual consciousness has also increased slightly.

Besides, he felt that the other party would take action in the next few days, so he had to stay in peak condition at all times to meet unexpected needs.

In the middle of the night, dark clouds cover the sky, the stars are sparse and the moon is dim. Ten monks in the late stage of Qi training are guarding a hidden corner of the city lord's mansion.

One of the female cultivators, about thirty years old, possesses the seventh level of Qi training, is hiding in a big tree, and is letting go of her consciousness to sense all the disturbances in the house.

Hou Jie used the invisibility talisman to appear quietly in the house. After a moment of sensing, he headed towards the female cultivator.

He came to the nun's place, and before the nun could react, a blood hole appeared in his heart.

He, a master in the foundation-building stage, actually used the invisibility talisman to sneak attack a monk in the Qi-training stage. He suddenly had the illusion that he was killing a chicken with a big sword, but as long as he could resurrect the ghost king, he could not be too careful.

After Hou Jie calmly eliminated the ten guards, he checked room by room.

After checking about fifty rooms, he didn't find any children with purple eyes. This made him feel a little strange, so he calmed down and continued searching.

After more than ninety rooms in a row, there was still no child that fit the criteria. He secretly wondered, who had leaked the news? Only he and a few of his subordinates knew the secret of looking at the qi.

He shook his head, probably not, maybe because there were so few children with purple eyes.

After all the rooms were searched, he couldn't help but sigh, is it possible that Tian Jue is the King of Ghosts?

No, Lord Ghost King had already predicted that he would be able to gather eighteen people. Lu Shun and the others must have guessed something and placed these children in another place.

At this time, a woman who was doing rounds walked into the room with a lantern on. He had an idea, cast a spell on the woman, and asked, "Are there any other special children in other places in the house?"

The woman replied with blurred eyes: "There are four children who are placed in the most heavily guarded room in the mansion."

"take me."

"Yes."

The woman drowsily led Hou Jie through a corridor, walked across a small arch bridge, passed through a pavilion, and came to a room after twists and turns. The woman went back under Lu Shun's spell.

At this time, Wang Lu, who was meditating, was completely unaware of what was happening outside.

His spiritual consciousness does not yet have the ability to penetrate objects. It is said that only immortal cultivators who have reached a very high level or monks who specialize in spiritual consciousness can do this. However, there are so few spiritual consciousness techniques in the world, at least they The Dream Sect doesn’t have that.

Just when Hou Jie entered the room, Zi Jiu in the next room seemed to be awakened, suddenly flew towards the wall, and instantly appeared in the child's room.

Hou Jie was so startled when he saw a demon butterfly suddenly appearing that when the wind blades hit him, he was in a panic.

Wang Lu followed him into the room and used a magic trick to make the children who had woken up fall asleep again.

At the same time, he secretly transported his magic power and shouted loudly. The entire city lord's palace seemed to have a thunderous sound, and everyone was awakened. At the same time, the city lord Lu Shun and the head of the Lu family, Lu Ming, led their men and rushed to Wang Lu.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Hou Jie jumped out of the room and came to the garden. He laughed wildly and said, "Today I will let you experience the power of the foundation stage."

He removed the invisibility talisman, and with a burst of magic power, the power of the initial stage of foundation building was undoubtedly revealed. Wang Lu seemed to be in a strong wind. He stood firm, gathered all the magic power in his body, and swung the hammer wildly, and a hammer shadow as big as a room came forward. Jay smashed it.

"Well come."

Hou Jie took out a flying sword, a top-grade fiery red magic weapon. He sent the flying sword forward, and a red sword shadow about one foot wide split the hammer shadow into two with unabated force. In front of Lu, a gust of wind blades hit the sword shadow. After some entanglement, the two disappeared one after another.

Wang Lu ignored it and attacked Hou Jie fiercely. Hou Jie had never encountered such a crazy fighting style. He also knew what Wang Lu was thinking. However, his magic power was three to five times deeper than Wang Lu. Wang Lu We can only adopt this desperate strategy to wait for the arrival of reinforcements from the city lord's palace.

Thinking of this, he was so angry that he gave up his defense and started to attack Wang Lu. After a while, Wang Lu's magic power was exhausted, but the little butterfly was able to handle his attack with ease. Zi Jiu was like a bolt of lightning, Shuttle back and forth in the gap between the sword shadows.

"thief, where are you running!"

There was a burst of shouting, and Lu Shun and several monks in the middle stage of Qi refining rushed over in time, took out various magical weapons and greeted Hou Jie. Wang Lu took the opportunity to drink a sip of semi-spiritual milk, and added a piece of his new The drawn fire dragon lantern talisman is a defensive primary and intermediate talisman. Wang Lu also spent about fifty materials to draw one.

As soon as his mana was restored, Wang Lu joined the group attack.

"You forced me!" Hou Jie said bitterly.

He took out a golden one-foot-long rope and threw it into the sky. The rope disappeared without a trace and appeared in front of a monk in the middle stage of Qi Refining. The rope was wrapped around his neck. He died without even making a cry.

"Everyone be on guard," Lu Shun reminded.

"Humph." His answer was just a cold snort.
