Chapter 1573 Colorful Butterfly
Liang Yan transformed into a young man, wearing a brocade robe, a jade crown, and holding a carved folding fan. He looked unrestrained and unrestrained, somewhat like a young man from an aristocratic family.
He checked his appearance and felt quite satisfied. Then he looked at Gu Xingyun. After pondering for a moment, he suddenly stretched out his hand a little.
But seeing the green light lingering, Gu Xingyun was involved in it. In just a moment, his appearance had changed.
What appeared in front of Liang Yan was a burly man with a dark iron heavy sword slung behind his back. He looked like a killing god.
"Not bad, quite impressive!"
Liang Yan looked Gu Xingyun up and down, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
The strong man who transformed from Gu Xingyun is full of murderous intent, which is enough to intimidate some young people, especially his one eye, which looks quite ferocious.
"It's a pity that your blind eye was caused by going crazy while practicing. It can't be changed for the time being. When you break through the Tongxuan realm in the future, your eyes will naturally recover."
"Disciple will work harder to break through as soon as possible!"
"Um."
Liang Yan nodded slightly and said: "From now on, I am the only son of the Heluo Li family, Li Tianhe! You are my personal guard, Lu Changjiang!"
These two names were all nonsense. Gu Xingyun had never heard of them before. He scratched his head and said:
"Disciples Li Tianhe and Lu Changjiang have all remembered it, but what will the disciples do after they enter the city?"
Liang Yan thought for a while and said: "You should speak less or don't speak at all. Try to stay silent. If you see someone praising me, just glare at him!"
"Understood!" Gu Xingyun nodded.
"Let's go."
Liang Yan took Gu Xingyun and walked towards Danfeng City.
Danfeng City is a monk city with an endless stream of escaping lights. There is a barrier around the city. All escaping lights have to stop when they reach the outside of the city and enter through the gate on the south side.
Liang Yan observed the monks coming and going and found that most of them were in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages, so he suppressed the cultivation aura to the early Foundation Establishment stage, and also asked Gu Xingyun to suppress the aura to the later Foundation Establishment stage.
When the two came to the city gate, a middle-aged man wearing armor blocked their way.
"Where are you from?" the man asked indifferently.
"I am the only son of the Heluo Li family, Li Tianhe."
Liang Yan slightly cupped his hands, then pointed to Gu Xingyun beside him, and said, "This is my guard, Lu Changjiang."
"Heluo Li family?" The man frowned, as if thinking. After a while, he shook his head and said, "Have you never heard of this aristocratic family?"
"Fellow Taoist, you were joking. You even went to our house for a drink two years ago." Liang Yan said, flicking his sleeves and performing the "Lingshi Jue" without leaving any trace.
The middle-aged man felt his hands sink. He quickly looked around and saw that no one was paying attention. He immediately smiled and said: "Not bad, not bad! Look at my memory. I went to the Li family two years ago, and the young master is indeed Li Tianhe. !”
Having said this, he waved his sleeves and said to the people behind him: "Let me go!"
"Thank you very much!"
Liang Yan smiled slightly and walked into Danfeng City with Gu Xingyun.
In fact, he could have broken into Danfeng City, but he had offended the Tiandao Alliance. Without knowing the details of the other party, Liang Yan did not want to expose himself so quickly.
"This Danfeng City is indeed a mixed bag of dragons and snakes. A few dozen spirit stones can be used to bribe the city defense. Even if a monk wanted by the sect enters this place, I'm afraid he won't be discovered, right?"
Liang Yan thought to himself, and glanced around, looking at it carefully for a moment.
Danfeng City is a relatively large city. As soon as you enter the door, there is a market on the left. There are many shops selling elixirs and spiritual weapons in the market. Most of them are treasures used by monks in the Qi Refining Stage. Some people directly Setting up stalls and trading on the ground seems relatively free.
This kind of market gave him an illusion for a moment, as if he had returned to the Cuishan Exchange Meeting he attended with the old monk when he first entered the world of cultivation.
Shaking his head to drive away any distracting thoughts in his heart, Liang Yan's mood quickly returned to its original state.
Looking in the direction of Fangshi again, Liang Yan discovered a very strange thing. There were not many monks stopping in such a big Fangshi. Instead, behind Fangshi, there seemed to be a lot of people and it looked very lively.
"Let's go over and have a look."
Liang Yan led Gu Xingyun towards the crowd.
On the way, he had to pass through a market. On both sides of the road, the monks setting up stalls looked at him eagerly.
"I see that this Taoist fellow is majestic and full of heaven. He looks like a genius in cultivation! Why don't you come and take a look at the spiritual weapons I have here. All of them are top quality, just worthy of a fellow Taoist!" A man with a fat head and big ears shouted while standing in front of his stall.
Gu Xingyun remembered Liang Yan's instructions to glare at anyone who praised him. He immediately frowned and gave the person a fierce look.
He was now a burly, one-eyed man with a murderous look on his body. The man was so stunned by his glare that he could no longer say the rest of his words and retreated back.
"Fellow Taoist! What a talented person! Look at my spiritual robe? It's made of 'Xuanbing Silk', and paired with it, you're like a tree in the wind!"
"Fellow Taoist! Seeing how deep your aura is, do you want to buy my 'Qi Nourishing Pill'?"
"Fellow."
Along the way, countless people wanted to talk to him, but with the "god of death" Gu Xingyun around, everyone could only shut up in anger.
Soon, Liang Yan passed through Fangshi and came to a white jade square.
There was a sea of people here, at least thousands of monks gathered together. They lined up in a long queue in the square, and the queue went around and around.
A pavilion was set up behind the square, and several monks were sitting in the pavilion. They looked arrogant and were checking the monks lining up one by one.
Liang Yan's spiritual consciousness took a rough look and found that most of these monks were in the Qi Refining Stage and the Foundation Establishment Stage. Among them, the monks in the Qi Refining Stage were at the bottom, while the monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage were relatively near the front. There were also several Yuan Yuan Stage cultivators. The monks were at the front of the queue.
In addition to the queue in the square, there is also a passage behind the pavilion. The people queuing up there are all female cultivators with varying levels of cultivation. The high ones are at the early stage of foundation building, while the low ones are only at the third level of Qi refining. But they all have one thing in common. , that is, as beautiful as a flower and with a good figure!
There were only a few dozen of these female nuns. They didn't have to wait as hard as the monks in the square, and they passed the inspection quickly.
Liang Yan observed carefully for a moment and was thinking secretly when he suddenly heard someone behind him laughing: "Why are fellow Taoists hesitating here?"
Turning around and looking, I saw a woman in colorful clothes, with a beautiful face and a tall figure.
"I see that my fellow Taoist is here to take part in the selection and assessment of the Tiandao Sect, right?" The woman in colorful clothes smiled and said, "Let me introduce myself, my name is Cai Die, a disciple of the 'Hongye Sect', what do you call me?"
"The only son of the Heluo Li family, Li Tianhe!" Liang Yan replied without thinking.
"It turns out to be the Heluo Li family. I've admired it for a long time! I've heard of the Li family's reputation for a long time, but I didn't expect to meet the young master today!" Cai Die's eyes and eyebrows showed a smile, and she looked particularly surprised. She didn't know Some people thought it was a reunion of old friends.
"Great acting!"
Liang Yan sneered in his heart: "If I didn't make this Li family up at will, I would really believe you."
But he finally understood that so many people in this square were waiting to join the Tiandao Sect.
"Fellow Taoist is so polite. We are all peers and should be close to each other!" Liang Yan laughed and said, "Since fellow Taoist is also here to participate in the selection of Tiandao Sect, why don't you line up in the square?"
Cai Die smiled mysteriously and said: "Tiandao Sect's selection is too strict and ordinary people can't get in! Cai Die has a special method here. If Fellow Daoist Li wants to know, let's take a step forward and talk."
"oh?"
Liang Yan raised his eyebrows and seemed to be interested.
With a sound of "Pa!", Liang Yan put away the folding fan in his hand, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Since Miss Cai Die has another way, of course Li must be all ears!"
"follow me."
Cai Die lowered her voice, glanced around, then turned around to lead the way.
Liang Yan followed the woman, wandering all the way around, away from the downtown area, and finally came to an antique restaurant.
"This is the property of our 'Hongye Sect'. Fellow Taoist, please come upstairs."
"good!"
The two went upstairs and entered an elegant room.
Liang Yan sat down in front of a mahogany table, his expression unchanged, but he was sneering in his heart.
This woman set up a "decapitation banquet"!
When his spiritual consciousness was released, he clearly saw that there were several monks hiding behind the wall, all of whom were in the middle stage of foundation building or above. Although these people tried their best to suppress their aura, how could they hide it from his eyes and ears?
"Probably seeking wealth and murder."
Liang Yan was used to this kind of thing, and he didn't feel any waves at all.
He didn't take action immediately. He wanted to ask about the Tiandao Alliance first, and then see what other tricks they had.
After a while, the food and wine were on the table.
Cai Die picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "Young Master Li has extraordinary magnanimity and is among the best among men! My little sister felt that she was destined to fall in love with him at the first sight, so I would like to offer you a drink first!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Xingyun suddenly remembered Liang Yan's instructions and immediately glared at him with his one eye without hesitation.
After Liang Yan's disguise, he looked extremely ferocious and his body was full of murderous aura. Under this glare, Cai Die felt as if a heavy blow had been struck in her heart, and she almost lost her grip on the wine glass in her hand.
Fortunately, she was calm in the face of danger and adjusted her expression in time, but she secretly thought in her heart: "This guy named Li seems to have a weak aura. I didn't expect to have such a powerful guard, which is a bit tricky."
She thought for a moment, put down the wine glass in her hand, and said with a smile: "Master Li, let me get straight to the point! The Tiandao League has become more and more strict in recruiting people in recent years. If you queue up to take the assessment like this, the possibility of successfully passing it is slim. You have to find someone. Help, just 'thread the needle'!"
After hearing this, Liang Yan smiled and said, "So the Taoist friends recognize the senior leaders of the Tiandao Alliance?"
"I can't talk to the high-level people. My uncle is a deacon of a branch of the Tiandao League. Although he is not in Danfeng City, he can still help talk. It will not be a problem to recruit individuals. It's just that there are some human relations here, which need to be sorted out."
"How many spirit stones do you want?" Liang Yan asked directly.
Cadie stretched out two fingers.
"two hundred?"
"two thousand!"
"oh"
Liang Yan nodded, his face noncommittal.
"Master Li, don't think it's too much. My uncle is not the only one who needs to be taken care of here. There is also the altar leader of the Danfeng City branch. Two thousand spirit stones, in exchange for the title of disciple of the Tiandao Alliance, this is a good deal. "Cadie hurriedly explained.
“Really a good deal.”
Liang Yan nodded, with a thoughtful look on his face.
"Fellow Daoist Cai Die, I have actually been cultivating in the Li family for many years, and this is my first time coming out. I wonder where this Tiandao Alliance comes from, and who is its leader?"
"ha?"
The surprise in Cai Die's eyes flashed away.
"Young master, you don't know about the Tiandao Alliance? The Tiandao Alliance is a newly rising cultivation force. It has branches all over the sixty-four islands and is extremely powerful. Even the Qinghe Sect, Luoyunmen, Xueyi Pavilion, and Daotian Academy on our Yunxi Island These four great sects all obey the Tiandao Alliance and do not dare to have the slightest dissent."
When Liang Yan heard this, his heart moved, and he suddenly asked: "Do you know where is the place outside Yunxi Island?"
"Outside Yunxi Island, there is naturally the Sea of Lost Souls." Cai Die said with a smile: "The Sea of Lost Souls is extremely dangerous. Monks like us in the Foundation Establishment Stage cannot cross the sea at all. Even monks in the Juyuan Realm must take a specially designed In the past, sea ships were scarce and the islands were relatively closed. Even the monks on some islands did not know the world outside the island. However, with the rise of the Tiandao Alliance in recent years, large sea-crossing ships are no longer scarce, and some islands are also Let’s start communicating with each other”
Cai Die was still talking, but Liang Yan was suddenly startled.
Sea of Lost Souls!
Are you back to Nanchui?
At this moment, Liang Yan's consciousness was in a trance.
He didn't even listen to what Cai Die said. What came to his mind were scenes from the past.
A hundred years of time, at the snap of a finger!
The memories that have been dusted for a long time have not been erased by time. They are just stored in the deepest part of the consciousness and are not easily touched at ordinary times.
Today, my heartstrings were stirred again.
"I didn't expect that I would actually fall into the Sea of Lost Souls."
"Yes, 'Juntian City' is on the back of the divine turtle 'Juntian'. 'Juntian' has an elusive whereabouts, wandering over the Antarctic Fairy Continent and shuttling through the cracks in the void. It seems that this time he was breathing , it happened to reach the south coast of Antarctic Fairy Continent, and vomited me into the 'Sea of Lost Souls'."
Thinking of this, Liang Yan couldn't help but sigh at the coincidence of fate. He didn't expect that after more than two hundred years, he would return to the place where he was born.
Cai Die is still talking.
"So, the Tiandao Alliance controls all the ships crossing the sea, and now controls the sixty-four islands. It is the largest cultivation force in the entire Sea of Souls. If the young master can successfully join the Tiandao Alliance, his status in the future will definitely rise. With only two thousand spirit stones, This deal is a good deal.”
"I see."
Liang Yan came back to his senses and said with a smile: "The Tiandao Alliance is indeed powerful. Unfortunately, Li has no intention of joining. He was just curious in the square just now. This time, fellow Daoist Cai Die may be disappointed."
After hearing this, Cai Die's eyes twitched slightly.
A trace of disappointment flashed in her eyes, but she soon returned to normal with a charming smile on her face: "It doesn't matter, since the young master doesn't want to join the Tiandao Alliance, then we won't force it. Business cannot be done without kindness and righteousness. Cai Die offers a toast to the young master! "
