Chapter 1254: Cultivation Progress
As his skin undulated like a wave, Li Yan's bones made an overwhelming "crack, click, click..." sound, as if they would break at any time.
Li Yan was sweating like rain, and the severe pain in his body kept attacking his nerves. But Li Yan seemed to have no feeling about this.
He has experienced this kind of pain countless times. Whether he is practicing the "Qiongqi Purgatory Technique" or refining blood essence, it is an inhuman purgatory process.
It's just that Li Yan feels that the pain now is much lighter than before, and his endurance seems to be getting stronger...
Another half an hour later, Li Yan's bones made a dense sound like rain, and suddenly condensed into a sound. This sound exploded in Li Yan's body like muffled thunder, and the entire training room was violently shaken! ??
Li Yanjing stood naked in the training room. He felt the power in his body that had not risen for a long time and clenched his fists involuntarily.
The moment you make a fist, you will feel an extremely full and bulging feeling in the pulps of your ten fingers. This is the feeling of fullness brought about by a sudden increase in strength.
"I broke through to the fourth level in just half a day, and my level also improved slightly. It's really good!"
Li Yan said to himself with a happy face.
After half a day, the "Qiongqi Purgatory Technique" broke through to the fourth level, and the bottleneck in the middle stage of Nascent Soul was actually slightly loosened.
Although it is still far from the peak of the mid-stage Nascent Soul, being able to improve at this level, even a little bit, is something that is hard to come by.
Li Yan knew that this seemingly easy step was actually his long-term accumulation.
On the one hand, he has reached the third level of "Qiongqi Purgatory Technique" for a long time, but he still practices it repeatedly on weekdays. Although it cannot allow him to break through to the fourth level, it will make the foundation stronger and stronger.
In addition, Li Yan refined a few drops of "Immortal Dark Phoenix" essence and blood, making him reach the level of flesh and blood, bones and tendons, and even exceeded the fourth level of "Qiongqi Purgatory Technique". .
Even the pain during practice is much less than when practicing each level before. With this foundation, Li Yanque can only follow the practice route, and everything will fall into place.
Li Yan looked around, but there was no place for him to test his strength.
But the next moment, Li Yan's figure suddenly disappeared from the place, and dozens of Li Yan's figures suddenly appeared in the training room. They turned at a large angle, drawing a series of afterimages in the room.
Everything flows smoothly, without any sluggishness.
In just five breaths, hundreds more figures of Li Yan appeared in the entire training room. When Li Yan finally stood back to his original position, those afterimages were still disappearing one by one.
"In five breaths, the speed of 'Feng Chongtian' has increased by more than 10%, and when stopping and turning at extreme speeds, the physical body's endurance is also a little easier.
Although the power of the essence and blood of the 'Immortal Phoenix' will be used inadvertently, the overall strength of the physical body has been improved! Let’s see how long it takes to be promoted to the fifth level.”
Li Yan touched his chin with his hand in the disappearing afterimage, assessing the extent of his improvement in his mind.
In the next period of time, Li Yan began to practice more diligently!
More than twenty days later, Li Yan, who was practicing, suddenly had a sudden change in his expression, fell into the sea, and immediately stopped practicing.
He was naked from the waist up, and as the magic power in his body was running, all the sweat on his body disappeared, and then a set of black robes appeared on his body.
When he came to the training room, a transmission note was flying around in the outdoor ban. He took it from the air, and his consciousness immediately sank into it.
The old voice immediately entered his mind.
"Fellow Daoist Li, can you come to the Tianli Hall?"
But it was the voice of the Great Elder.
Li Yan pondered for a moment and seemed to have a guess in his mind, so he strode out of the house.
…………
"Tianli Hall", when Li Yan entered, he found that there were already five people sitting here, one of whom surprised him.
In addition to the first elder, the second elder and the third elder were all there, and there was another person sitting next to the second elder, but Li Yan did not recognize him.
What surprised Li Yan was the Hongyin nun who was sitting not far from the great elder, with a somewhat illusory figure.
After seeing Li Yan come in, several people looked at Li Yan with different expressions. Except for the fifth elder, the others nodded towards Li Yan.
The fifth elder looked a little dull. He just glanced at Li Yan and then looked away without saying anything, leaving people wondering what he was thinking.
The great elder looked at Li Yan with a smile and spoke first.
"Fellow Daoist Li, I'm looking for you to come here. I'm afraid I've disturbed your spiritual practice. Please forgive me! Oh, you've met the rest of them too. That one is the fifth elder of the clan."
"Great Elder, you're welcome!"
Li Yan said politely.
After looking at where everyone was sitting in the hall, he also glanced at the fifth elder. After the man glanced at himself, he immediately looked away, as if he didn't want to pay attention to him.
Seeing this, Li Yan already had something in mind, so he walked towards the third elder, and soon sat down next to her.
When the third elder saw Li Yan approaching, his beautiful eyes were full of smiles, which made Li Yan feel a little uncomfortable.
Li Yan had nothing to do. In the hall, the great elder and Hongyin were both at the head.
Maybe everyone here already knew Hongyin's original identity. Even though the opponent's cultivation level plummeted and he lost his body, the God-Transformation monk was the God-Transformation monk, and they showed due respect.
After the two parties have agreed to cooperate, and with the relationship between Gong Chenying and due respect, the Tianli people will certainly not be stingy and will not do anything that makes people dissatisfied.
Below the two people, the second elder and the fifth elder sat in a row, and the third elder sat opposite the second elder, which was quite targeted.
In fact, this is indeed the case. The two surnames of the clan are mainly Gong and Miao. Inadvertently, when discussing matters on weekdays, the two parties will subconsciously sit in separate groups.
Of course, Li Yan didn't want to sit under the fifth elder. When he saw that face, he didn't bother to get close to him, so he naturally sat next to the third elder.
But the third elder always likes to look at Li Yan a few more times every time he sees him.
Although he didn't know whether the other party was surprised by some of his tricks, or whether it was just the nature of Tianli women, Li Yan always felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by the other party.
He couldn't just stare at the other person's undulating figure and keep looking back.
Fortunately, the great elder continued to speak after seeing Li Yan sit down.
"Shanhe, the Fourth Elder, and the Sixth Elder are all in retreat. It may take some time for them to recover, so they didn't come!"
He opened his mouth to explain why
What was the reason why Gong Shanhe didn't come over? When Li Yan heard this, he looked up at the great elder and nodded. He didn't feel anything about it.
Gong Shanhe and the others had only been back for just over twenty days. No matter how many things happened in the clan, it was impossible for him to not recover from his injuries. Only when his strength was restored could he bear more risks.
Li Yan's eyes passed over Hongyin again. He was still a little surprised. He could roughly guess the reason why the great elder came to him, but what he wanted Hongyin to come over for was to hear her opinion on the matter.
But when he glanced at Hongyin, Hongyin also looked at him and said something that surprised Li Yan.
"Chen Ying is currently comprehending the techniques I teach and cannot come!"
Everyone in the hall was startled when they heard this, and then they realized what the nun Hongyin was saying to Li Yan. It seemed that Hongyin had also confirmed the relationship between Li Yan and Gong Chenying's Taoist couple.
At the same time, in Hongyin's opinion, Gong Chenying is qualified to participate in the meeting here.
"Sixth Senior Sister, the new Master is very satisfied with her. Otherwise, there would be no need to explain to her alone. This means that she cares about Sixth Senior Sister. Do you love Wujiwu?"
Li Yan thought in his heart.
At the same time, he also caught a glimpse of other people's reactions after hearing these words. Except for the second elder, there was no reaction, but the face of the fifth elder seemed to be gloomier.
"Ha! It's you who hid Sixth Senior Sister's letter and still looks like you deserve a beating. You need to find a chance to settle the account!"
Li Yan had a calm expression on his face. He had always been the one who would retaliate for his anger, but he had been thinking about that incident. At this moment, the other party's expression fell into his eyes again. This made Li Yan, who was smiling, think about the other party even more. .
This was also the result of the fifth elder deliberately not concealing it. The fifth elder already had a grudge against Li Yan for ruining some of their plans after his arrival.
Moreover, he also felt that Li Yan's cultivation level mentioned by the second elder and the others was exaggerated. Killing an opponent of the same level? He could do this just because he took advantage of the situation and appeared rashly, at the right time and in the right place.
And Li Yan was already thinking about when to find an opportunity to "communicate" with this person.
Although one should not underestimate any monk, Li Yan could roughly guess the abilities of the opponent in the early stage of Nascent Soul after being beaten to rest by Yan San and the others for so many years with his eyes closed.
"Hahaha... I invited Fellow Daoist Li here just to discuss ways to deal with the wind beast in the swamp. Since Fellow Daoist Hongyin is very familiar with the situation of the 'Yinshan Beast', I also invited her here to see if she has any good suggestions. For our family’s reference.
At the same time, Fellow Daoist Li also went to the bottom of the swamp, looked at the situation there, and even fought against the clone of the fifth-order ‘Yinshan Beast’. Of course, he needed to listen to Fellow Daoist Li’s opinion.
These are matters for our Tianli clan. If we invite you two to come over, we will trouble Fellow Daoist Li and Fellow Daoist Hongyin. "
The great elder explained his intention to let Li Yan and the others come over.
But as soon as the first elder finished speaking, the fifth elder with a dull and gloomy face suddenly spoke up.
"Great Elder, you are a little too polite. Fellow Daoist Hongyin is our guest and is currently recovering from physical illness. This is certainly troublesome.
But this Taoist friend Li Yan is the 'King Qing'. From every point of view, he is one of his own and can contribute to matters. Will he still be stingy with his methods? "
As soon as he said these words, the great elder frowned, but Li Yan's expression remained as usual.
.
"This guy comes up and puts a big hat on himself. Then he wants me to strike for free? Just enough damage, but not enough beating?"
However, Li Yan remained calm on the surface, and when the fifth elder finished speaking, he also spoke with a smile.
"What the Fifth Elder said is that I am indeed one of my own family members. If anything happens to you, First Elder, just ask. If I can do it, I will take action. Since I am one of my own family members, there is nothing bad to say about everything."
When Li Yan said "my family", he deliberately emphasized his tone. When he came, he was guessing the purpose of calling the elder here.
Now that the second elder is setting a trap for himself, do you want me to be generous in the future and just follow your words, "My own family"? Hehehe, you have to be generous to me when the time comes.
After hearing what Li Yan said, the fifth elder's eyes quietly flashed with light, but he did not continue to talk, while the second elder remained silent.
The second elder now knew that Li Yan was a man of deep scheming and sharp tongue, and was definitely a difficult person to deal with. He did not want to argue with him unless it involved substantive issues and interests.
"Fellow Daoist Hongyin, according to Shanhe, you were the one who suppressed the fifth-level 'Yinshan Beast' with your own hands. I would like to ask, in addition to relying on its powerful cultivation, does it have any weaknesses that our clan can exploit?
Can we use the spell to suppress it again before it wakes up, or is there any other way to delay its awakening, so as to buy time for our clan to migrate."
The first elder immediately got to the point.
Hongyin had long known the purpose of asking her to come here, and had already thought about it in her mind. She answered immediately without thinking.
"With the current strength of your clan's cultivators, it should be impossible to suppress it directly! Unless you still have the high-quality magic weapons refined by the former Divine Transformation cultivators, and they are the kind of extremely strong and yang magic weapons!
As for delaying time? There are methods, but they also require corresponding conditions. The "Yinshan Beast" is an extremely cold and extremely yin creature, which is not comparable to the wind beasts of these three clans.
If there are more than four Buddhist Yuanying monks, or Confucian Yuanying cultivators, they can join forces and use Buddhist magical powers or the power of righteousness.
While it is still asleep, if you cast a spell again, it may be possible to slow down its absorption of the cold "Heavenly Eye Wind" under the swamp.
It should be possible to suppress it for another five to ten years.
As for the weakness of the "Yinshan Beast", as I said before, It has the attribute of extreme yin and extreme coldness, and the Confucian righteousness and Buddhist skills can best restrain it.
Your Tianli clan follows the two immortal ways of witchcraft and physical cultivation, but you can use the extreme yang skills in witchcraft to suppress it.
For example, I know the witchcraft technique of refining the "Honglu Qiguangmu". This kind of witchcraft can also suppress it, but in the absence of a spiritual cultivator, several great wizards must work together.
Physical cultivation methods have no problem dealing with other wind beasts, but for the "Yinshan Beast", it can only be defeated by force after it becomes strong to a certain extent.
Although most physical cultivators follow the path of strength, they only make their own blood and qi strong and full of yang, which is not a real attribute restraint! "
After saying this, Hongyin stopped talking and said no more.
Her meaning is very clear, the "Yinshan Beast" is not easy to deal with. Back then, even with the "Hongfu Temple" as powerful as it was, it could only suppress and seal it in the end, but could not kill it, not to mention a Tianli clan without a spiritual cultivator sitting in charge.
