Chapter 399 Qing Du Li Qinghong
"Qinghong will be completed!"
Li Yuanjiao was slightly happy when he heard this, but he was thinking deeply, so he just nodded and whispered:
"Master, please go back with me first."
Kong Heng talked a lot in front of Li Wushao, but in front of Li Yuanjiao, he just nodded and stood up. The two of them flew up in the wind and rode the wind back along the road.
Silent all the way, Kong Heng rode the golden light, the light of the Zen staff in his hand flowed, and he looked very different.
Li Yuanjiao looked at it and asked:
"Now that the mage has made a breakthrough, what are your plans for the future?"
Kong Heng lowered his head slightly and responded:
"If the nobles ask for something, Kong Heng will try his best to repay. If they ask for nothing, Kong Heng will still practice on Wangyue Lake."
When the two arrived at the peak, Kong Heng apologized and fell down to practice. Li Yuanjiao fell back to the peak and did not continue to retreat, but stood with his hands behind his back in the forest.
Sure enough, after a while of burning incense, I saw an urgent summons from outside the formation. Kong Heng's voice was very urgent:
"The young monk wants to see the benefactor Yuanjiao! Please open a big formation."
Until he landed in front of Li Yuanjiao, Kong Heng said eagerly:
"Senior! Young monk... I must not let Xijun suffer for me."
"Previously I was only thinking about the secret of my own practice and couldn't say more, so I didn't reveal it for a long time. It was Kong Heng's fault! Now that I have completed it, I have to thank the nobles for completing it..."
Kong Heng continued to defend himself for a long time, but Li Yuanjiao glanced at him and said nothing. Kong Heng had been coming to the Li family for more than ten years, and his character was obvious to all. Although Li Yuanjiao didn't like Shi Xiu very much, his combat power could not be wasted. waste.
‘After finding out the details this time, this person may be of use. ’
Li Yuanjiao replied:
"This is my family matter. I won't bother the Master. He will be released naturally after he is punished."
Kong Heng shook his head and was about to speak, when Li Yuanjiao asked:
"Is the Liaohe Zhengfa Master different from the Zhao Kingdom Shixiu? The Master's current strength is probably not as good as ordinary foundation building, right?"
Kong Heng could only continue what he said, shook his head repeatedly, and replied:
"The donor doesn't practice Buddhism. It's very complicated. The young monk can't explain it. It's only comparable to the foundation building of Zifu's Golden Elixir Path. If compared with the Seven Paths of Northern Buddhism, it's even worse."
Li Yuanjiao had met Wang Xun, the ancient immortal cultivator of the Wang family, and thought that the ancient Buddhist cultivator would also be much better. He was suddenly surprised and asked:
"The ancient method is not as good as the current method?!"
"good."
Kong Heng sighed and explained:
"In Buddhism, Master and Maha correspond to Ji Ji and Zifu respectively. Together with Master, we need to practice internal magic and read the scriptures to seek fate..."
"But today's Zhao Guo Shixiu has taken a shortcut. Instead of practicing Dharma, the Master worships the Maha Dharma. He chants his name every day, borrows his magical power, and uses the metal to build a giant statue to practice. Therefore, he is very powerful. Far better than building a foundation.”
It was rare for Li Yuanjiao to hear this secret, so he was very focused. Kong Heng continued:
"If you don't practice this Tao by yourself, you will end up with a nondescript pity. Without the magical power you should have cultivated, you will become a stronger mage. When facing the Zi Mansion, you will naturally be weaker!"
"On the contrary, these Mahas, without the constraints of heaven, reincarnate at will from one life to the next. They were originally close to death, but now they are safe and sound, much better than Zifu."
"I see!"
Li Yuanjiao had been wondering about Shi Xiu's strength for many years. Once his doubts were cleared, his brows relaxed and Kong Heng sighed:
"Because the magic power of Maha was borrowed, the magician was particularly miraculous. He was able to confuse, store, and perform calculations. The monks, soldiers, and tenants were fascinated by their minds and controlled by the magician. Lianmin and the magician were controlled by Maha. The huge Zhao Our country is working hard and sleeping hard, but none of its hundreds of millions of people can express a single cry or dissent!"
"The master above said something, and below you are happy to obey orders. Killing is justified, and cannibalism is good. The old people line up to eat each other first, and the children only hope to grow up quickly so that they can reach bliss."
There were tears in Kong Heng's eyes and he whispered:
"Such a world, all the magicians call it──"
"Release the country on earth!"
Kong Heng was a little confused and murmured:
"Shizu once said that he wanted to achieve great unity, so that there would be no evil, no sorrow, no killing and no fighting. They did it. The people of Zhao State were not happy and happy every day."
As soon as these words came out, Li Yuanjiao felt suffocated and asked in a deep voice:
"Then...where's Emperor Zhao!"
"Then Hu Jie..."
Kong Heng lowered his head:
"Hu Jie was very majestic when he entered the customs thousands of years ago. He was destined to be an emperor, hoping to be an emperor from generation to generation. Emperor Zhao Zhaowu's father, Qi Yan, suppressed Buddhism. He died overnight, and his descendants fell to him in less than a hundred years. He's at his feet."
"Later, I was offered the gift of gold and welcomed Maha to the capital. Now Emperor Zhao is like a slave, he can only kneel down and worship!"
Li Yuanjiao was silent and said in a low voice:
"No wonder...Zhao Guo has no chance to succeed. He looked like he was when he was alive, and he will be the same when he died. If his mind is not his own, how could he have a chance to succeed?"
"Harmful!"
Kong Heng sighed and whispered:
"Young monk has lost his composure. My Taoism originates from Northern Buddhism. I am at odds with Zhao Shi. I have always felt sorry for Zhao. The donor is laughing at me."
"As for whether it is right or wrong, who can argue? Under the rule of our Liaohe Temple, people flee every night, smuggle into the State of Zhao, and even threaten them with death, calling our temple an evil way."
Kong Heng was very desolate and stopped on the peak. Li Yuanjiao asked some more peripheral questions and waved him off.
Monk Kong Heng was a reasonable person. Although he still wanted to argue for Li Xijun, he sighed in a low voice and said softly:
"It was Xijun who suffered for me."
After saying that, he rode the wind and left, leaving Li Yuanjiao standing there with his hands behind his back, holding the Qing Chi Sword in his hand, hesitating.
"Father Zhong!"
Just as he was hesitating, Li Ximing came from behind, bowed his hands, and whispered:
"Junior, congratulations to Father Zhong, for your diligent cultivation and your success in becoming the Purple Mansion soon."
When Li Yuanjiao returned, it was his first appearance out of seclusion. Li Ximing came over to pay homage, and his words were very sincere:
"Xi Jun also has his reasons..."
"Sixth level of Qi training, not bad."
Li Yuanjiao didn't answer, looked at his cultivation, felt slightly happy, and asked:
"It seems that we are not far away from breaking through the seventh level of Qi training. We should be able to reach the foundation building by the age of thirty."
Li Ximing explained all the big and small things about his practice before and after. After listening to this, Li Yuanjiao became interested and said suspiciously:
"Does this...doing things in your boudoir help your spiritual practice?!"
Li Ximing looked a little embarrassed when he heard this and nodded. Li Yuanjiao did not ignore it carelessly. He took out a jade slip from his storage bag, read it carefully and said in a deep voice:
"This seems to be the case! Although I don't know which golden nature the "Golden Palace Huangyuan Jue" belongs to, it is a member of Huangyang after all, so it makes sense."
After saying this, he nodded and whispered:
"I already know, just go down."
He watched Li Ximing go away and picked up the small letter on the table. This letter was sent from Qingchi Sect very early. Li Xizhi made people worry-free and got the news clearly.
"[Blood Tun Fruit]."
Li Yuanjiao had never heard of this elixir, so he could only send out his men to inquire about it first. As for finding this thing, he would probably have to go deep into the mountains.
"We will practice in seclusion first, and we will discuss this matter after Qinghong breaks through and returns!"
…
Li Ximing returned to the yard and opened the dark stove lid. The liquid medicine in it was crystal clear, slightly gray, and looked a little sticky.
"It's okay! It's okay!"
It came and went very quickly, and the medicine in the furnace was not yet formed, so it would not burn out the furnace of pills. Li Ximing was already very talented, and under the guidance of Xiao Yuansi, he had not burned out a furnace of pills since he returned home.
He spent some time refining the remaining elixirs. He got six of them out of the furnace and put them away in the jade bottle. Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside.
"Tuk-tuk."
Li Ximing frowned slightly, the door creaked open, and someone came in and said respectfully:
"Sir, a female cultivator has come outside. On the order of the head of the family, she said she came to seek advice."
"Ask for advice?"
Li Ximing was stunned and said softly:
"Lead her up."
Now the people retreated, and soon a woman came up.
This woman looked to be no more than twenty, with very beautiful appearance and fair skin. She was wearing a navy blue dress. She blinked her eyes and bowed down:
"My little daughter Meng, I have met my senior."
Li Ximing lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, and said softly:
"It turns out to be the Meng family."
Meng Zhuoyun saw his lowered eyebrows and glanced up and down, already seeing something was wrong with Li Ximing's expression, so he only said respectfully:
"Xiao Xiu was ordered to come and consult the elders on alchemy... The head of the family also promised."
"good."
Li Ximing looked up and down, with a strange look in his eyes, and said with a smile:
"Call out your inner fire and let me take a look."
He just finished talking to Li Yuanjiao, and Meng Zhuoyun came to the courtyard. It was inevitable that he would think too much. Li Ximing couldn't make up his mind, so he just taught him gently and said to himself:
‘Could it be that Meng is planning to throw herself into the door of my house, so she is marrying me with a woman? She is about to make a breakthrough in Qi training and will definitely be of great benefit to my practice. ’
Meng Zhuoyun was a perfect beauty, with delicate skin and delicate appearance. Naturally, Li Ximing was not immune to vulgarity. He talked about the secret of alchemy, but he had thoughts in his heart.
Meng Zhuoyun here is no longer a little girl. She is very shrewd and secretly moved in her heart:
"This Li Ximing looks very different from the Li family. It is said that he is very fond of beauty. If he can be relied upon, maybe he will be able to live better in the Li family in the future."
The two of them each had their own secrets. They looked at each other, and they spoke softly.
…
Li Xijun didn't kneel in the ancestral hall for long. He only went to practice on his own for a few days. But Kong Heng was interested and asked questions from time to time.
The Li family ran smoothly until winter turned to spring and all the heavy snow melted. A ray of Dharma light came from the west, flying through the clouds and mist, very urgently.
The Dharma light stopped on the boundary of the Li family, and someone immediately came to greet it. It was Xu Gongming, who was in the middle of Qi training, cupping his fists and saying:
“I don’t know friend…”
The Dharma light stopped and revealed a figure, but it was a burly man with a huge back and a heavy waist. He looked angry and looked very eager. He was wearing leather armor and only shouted:
"But the Li family in Lijing!"
Xu Gongming was stunned and corrected:
"Now it's the Qingdu Li family..."
This big man looked majestic, his eyes were reddish, he opened his eyes fiercely, and cursed:
"I don't care which Qingdu you are, I just ask if you have [Wanling Flower] at home!"
Only then did Xu Gongming realize that this person was actually a foundation-building monk. He was horrified and said in a daze:
"I do have this thing in my family...I don't know, senior..."
The big foundation-builder was immediately overjoyed. He reached out and picked up his collar and said fiercely:
"Bring it to me quickly! I won't let you suffer!"
Xu Gongming felt pain in his limbs when he was caught by him. He screamed loudly and felt as if there was fire burning in his heart and lungs. He reluctantly said:
"Senior, wait a moment, I'll report to the elders!"
Only then did the big man give up, hurriedly let go of him and shouted:
"Go! Go! Go!"
Xu Gongming did not dare to neglect and hurriedly rode the wind down. The jade court guards at the other end had already discovered it and hurriedly gathered around. Li Xi'ao rode the wind over and said in a deep voice:
"What's going on! Why did someone come to build a foundation!"
Xu Gongming explained the cause and effect, Li Xiya frowned and said:
"What's going on? The tribute will be paid next year. The Wanling Flower harvested in the past few years has already been sold to other families! How can it be kept for him?"
"Although the family has kept some for their own use, they are also in the cave of the ancestor. He has been in seclusion for a long time!"
The two discussed this, and the big man in the sky couldn't help but shouted:
"Those boys! Do you have this flower at home? Don't waste my time!"
He was so anxious that he stepped forward and stretched out his hand. The monks were as if they were facing a great enemy. He hurriedly protected Li Xiyi, and Chen Mufeng on the side shouted:
"Senior, please think it through!"
The big man stopped immediately. Although he was very anxious, he still had reason. He glanced at him gloomily and gritted his teeth and said:
"Then give the flower quickly!"
Li Xiyi was also very nervous and ordered:
"Go to Qingdu quickly! Call out the ancestor!"
"Boom!"
As soon as the voice fell, rolling thunder roared and lingered in the sky for a long time, covering up his words.
"Boom!"
Dark clouds rolled in the south, and the thunder that had been suppressed for a winter resounded through the sky. The first thunder of spring sounded, and a gorgeous purple light came from the south.
"Fellow Daoist, you have something to ask for, but you act so overbearingly. I'm afraid you don't take my family seriously!"
A female cultivator who had established her foundation came riding on thunder. Her jade armor was warm, and her willow eyebrows and almond eyes were bright and beautiful. But she was also warning, showing an extraordinary heroic spirit.
Her long black hair slowly spread in the wind, setting off her small and exquisite ears. The purple lightning flowed on her long hair, emitting several silver-white halos, which made everyone present stunned and speechless for a while.
"Auntie!"
Li Qinghong held the silver-white spear upside down in her hand, and it slowly fell in front of her. Li Xiyi was the most excited. She cried out on the spot, and the joy in her expression could not be stopped, and she laughed.
Li Qinghong nodded slightly, her eyes were as bright and beautiful as ever, and she looked much gentler when she looked at her family, but she was more exciting. She stepped on the rolling lightning and closed the distance.
The black-clad young man Li Wushao behind him was full of awe, and he bowed respectfully and retreated behind. There were still some traces of embarrassment on his clothes, which were charred and looked like he had just been beaten.
The burly man was a little embarrassed and annoyed when he was yelled at, but his eyes stayed on her and he couldn't move away after being amazed for several times. He said with a lack of energy:
"Who are you!"
Li Qinghong was dressed neatly and heroically, without makeup, and only the purple thunder of joy added a bit of brilliance and inviolability to her already heroic face.
Her eyes were filled with purple lightning, and she said loudly:
"Li Qinghong, the Qingdu Li family."
