Longevity, starting from raising chickens

"You are... the Lord of Taiyi Mountain?!"

Although the green-robed monk had an ugly face and a short stature, Lu Shifu, Li Zhongping, and the other monks who had rushed over all recognized his identity!

It was none other than the master of the original Demon Mountain, Taiyi, who had become increasingly famous in the market recently for selling large quantities of spiritual food!

At this moment, he was standing with his hands behind his back, and no one could tell when he came behind Lu Shifu!

Even Master Lu brushed himself off!

What this means is self-evident.

Obviously, this elusive escape technique alone is far superior to anyone else present!

What’s more crucial is that both of them noticed that the other person was three inches off the ground and did not seem to be bound by the invisible rules of this place.

Realizing this, Lu Shifu and Li Zhongping's pupils shrank slightly, unable to hide the shock in their hearts.

Li Zhongping immediately recalled the news that Zu Wenqiu had reported, and he became even more annoyed:

"Wen Qiu is really unreliable!"

"Being able to fight Master Lu on equal terms... can this be called refining the void?!"

"Luckily, I fought with Master Lu first, and revealed some of my background... But as an outsider cultivator, I lack many resources, and my soul is not growing as fast as in the Dao Realm. I can't even fathom the powerful cultivation of this Taiyi Mountain Master, so where did he come from?"

"They don't look like people from Jiutian Palace or Fangshi... If they had appeared before, I should be able to tell them apart."

With his brows furrowed, he quickly recalled some of the declining great powers in the past when he passed through the Sea of ​​Chaos, but he couldn't think of any connection.

Master Lu's elegant and graceful face also showed a bit of solemnity. He took two steps back and looked the other person up and down. He repeated the question in a low voice:
"Are you the Lord of Mount Taiyi?"

The previous sentence expressed more surprise than question, but this one was full of affirmation and confirmation.

The monk in green robe had an indifferent expression. Although his face was ugly, the calmness between his brows and the ease in his gestures gave him an impressive bearing that made people ignore his appearance unconsciously.

Standing with his hands behind his back, he asked calmly:

"Fellow Daoist, you keep calling my spirit beast a beast, but I didn't expect that you actually know the owner of this beast?"

Master Lu's expression froze. He heard the sarcasm in the other party's words and felt a hint of anger.

But he soon thought of how the other party had broken through his Dao Domain with just one finger, but he could not see the reason at all, and how the other party seemed to be unaffected by the rules here. His unhappiness immediately turned into a deep fear. He glanced at the surrounding cultivators and Li Zhongping, and his mind raced. He just scolded Wu Yuanwang casually, but now he forced out a little smile and raised his hand and said in a gentle voice:
"Fellow Taoist Taiyi, there may be some misunderstanding... I haven't thanked you for holding back just now."

His gentle attitude, a complete change from his previous brutal and domineering nature, shocked all the outsiders around him. They never expected that Master Lu had such a side to him.

But for Lu Shifu, this was not a polite remark. The other party had just appeared behind him, but he did not notice it at the first time. If the other party had killed him just now, even if he did not die, he would have suffered a great loss.

Besides, it was indeed he who took action first, so it was normal for him to take the initiative to show weakness and make goodwill.

Of course, not everyone can enjoy such treatment.

In other words, looking at the entire world of chaos, the number of people who can receive such treatment can be counted on one's hands.

The people around were not fools. Seeing Lu Shifu's attitude, even though many cultivators were not at a high enough level to see the mystery of the brief confrontation between the two, they all understood that this mysterious Taiyi Mountain Master was obviously a late-stage fusion cultivator who was no less than Lu Shifu.

"In the Sea of ​​Chaos, there is actually such a great cultivator from outside the realm who is as great as Master Lu! I have never heard of him before. Where did he come from?"

"I heard that this Master Lu is a person who is only inferior to Daoist Master Ying Yuan and a few others in the Double Body Realm..."

Such doubts arose in everyone's mind.

But the sea of ​​chaos is vast, and one could never tell where some extraordinary strong man might emerge from, so they did not think much about it.

Facing Lu Shifu's initiative to show goodwill, Wang Ba's expression eased a little, and he glanced around, not holding on any longer, and said calmly:

"I don't deserve it. Fellow Daoist, your Dao Realm is so agile, your reality and illusion are in harmony, and your movements and stillness are at your will. Under normal circumstances, I can't hurt you."

Seeing that Wang Ba pointed out the essence of his control of his own Dao domain in one breath, Master Lu's heart froze slightly, but he no longer had any doubts, and the smile on his face became even wider:

"Fellow Daoist Taiyi is too modest, but I really didn't understand what you pointed at me just now. If you have time, please wait for this time..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a voice:

"Fellow Taoist Taiyi, nice to meet you. I am Li Zhongping from Yuhu Realm."

Lu Shifu's face suddenly darkened. He turned to look at the white-haired old man who suddenly spoke. His eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of coldness flashed out.

The white-haired old man smiled slightly, then looked at Wang Ba, raised his hand and saluted, saying politely:
"Before, I only heard that there were many spiritual foods for sale in the Original Demon Mountain, but I didn't know that the mountain master had such a high level of cultivation. It is really admirable. My Yuhu Realm has always been courteous to talented people, and my senior brother, Taoist Master Changying, also likes to communicate with virtuous people from all walks of life... This time, I hope to work together with fellow Taoists to explore the secrets of the mirage here, and after returning, we can cook wine and drink tea together."

Upon hearing this, Lu Shifu's face suddenly became a little embarrassed, and his tone was slightly cold:

"Brother Li, what you said makes it sound like my Twin Realm is not hospitable."

Then he looked at Wang Ba, his tone softened again, and he said with a bit of frankness and sincerity:

"Fellow Taoist Taiyi, the secret of the mirage is right before our eyes. Who knows what dangers may come from it. As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers. It is the most appropriate way for us to unite and face the outside world in unison. Although my Twin Body Realm is overbearing, we also respect great cultivators like Fellow Taoist Taiyi the most. If there are any gains from this exploration, they will be divided according to the amount of effort. If there are things that my Twin Body Realm is determined to obtain, we will also compensate you and will never let you suffer any losses... What do you think?"

After saying that, he looked at Wang Ba with anticipation.

He actually started to win over people directly.

There was a barely perceptible hint of doubt in Wang Ba's eyes, and his eyes swept across the pavilion at the end of the stairs. He felt vaguely dazed and solemn, and then his face showed a hint of hesitation, as if he had some intention to move, but he did not speak immediately.

Li Zhongping on the side frowned slightly. He did not expect Lu Shifu to point it out so directly.

However, thinking of the possible secrets behind this mirage, he glanced at the monks who were still gathering from the end of the stairs below.

Almost all of them are monks from outside the world.

His mind raced, and he suddenly laughed, as if jokingly saying:
“Hahaha, Fellow Taoist Taiyi, don’t believe his lies. In the Sea of ​​Chaos, everyone knows that Brother Lu is the most petty person. Fellow Taoist has offended him, so you better be careful in the future!”

"Li Zhongping!"

Lu Shifu finally couldn't bear it anymore and said angrily:
"Are you going to have a fight with Lu?"

Li Zhongping laughed:

"Well, Li was just joking, Brother Lu, please don't take it seriously."

However, these words undoubtedly affected the 'Lord of Mount Taiyi'.

He seemed to have finally made a decision and shook his head slightly:
"Thank you for your kindness, fellow Taoist." But he didn't say much.

Lu Shifu didn't have time to quarrel with Li Zhongping, and couldn't help showing a hint of disappointment when he heard this.

Among the three realms, the people from the Blasphemy Realm have been slow to arrive. The biggest competitor in this exploration of the secrets of the mirage is undoubtedly Li Zhongping from the Jade Pot Realm.

As for those cultivators from outside the realm, there are indeed many powerful ones, but the manpower from the Double Body Realm in the market town is also continuously coming, which is enough to contain the vast majority of the cultivators from outside the realm.

Only the Lord of Taiyi Mountain who suddenly appeared had unfathomable strength and seemed to be able to ignore the restrictions here.

If they become rivals, it will undoubtedly increase the difficulty and uncertainty of competition. On the contrary, if they can be used for their own benefit, they will surely be an extremely sharp knife.

Unfortunately, Li Zhongping was obviously aware of this and immediately began to clamor for it. After realizing that he could not win, he simply spoke out to instigate others. Even though he could not unite with the Lord of Taiyi Mountain, he still tried his best to disrupt the situation.

"We can only ask the people behind to catch up as soon as possible!"

Master Lu felt a little depressed.

He and Li Zhongping did the same thing. In order to arrive earlier, they directly left the main force and arrived first.

However, while they were talking, the cultivators from the Jade Pot Realm and the Double Body Realm who had lagged behind finally arrived.

"Ask Qiu...what's going on?"

Li Zhongping saw at a glance the leading cultivator Zu Wenqiu and several other cultivators of the Wen generation, but they all looked a little disheveled, and some of the cultivators following behind were even obviously injured. He subconsciously asked about them, but while asking, he already had some guesses in his mind.

"It was a treasure hunter... I was in a hurry on the road and was ambushed by the treasure hunter."

Zu Wenqiu said with an unpleasant expression.

If they were outside Dahai City, these treasure hunters would not dare to attack them even if they were given ten times the courage. However, in Dahai City, the rules had changed and situations where the weak defeated the strong occurred frequently. Therefore, even though they had a large number of people, they were still targeted by someone with ulterior motives and lost some manpower.

Li Zhongping's face darkened slightly as he glanced at the outsiders around him who seemed a little cautious. He was not deceived by their timid appearance. These outsiders seemed to be afraid of them like tigers, but once given a chance, they would show their hideous side.

The reason why he finally gave up inviting the Lord of Taiyi Mountain was also based on this reason. The cultivators from the Double Body Realm are enemies rather than friends, but the cultivators from outside the realm are also untrustworthy.

Lu Shifu's expression was not looking good either. It was obvious that the people in the Double Body Realm also encountered the same problem.

While Li Zhongping, Lu Shifu and Wang Ba were talking, although there were many monks from outside the world, none of them surpassed them and climbed to the higher steps.

Until the huge mercury bead that lay across the steps suddenly shattered.

Yu Yu crashed out first, but he didn't have any wounds this time. Just as he was about to hand the Immortal Marrow Jade Liquid to Wang Ba, he saw the steps below were full of monks and was immediately startled.

Yu Wuhen, Chen Xuan and the Ghost King Pao Shi also flew out and were also shocked by the large number of cultivators around them.

When they saw Yu Wuhen, many of the cultivators around him showed a hint of fear in their eyes.

The other party's demonstration at the entrance of Dahai City not long ago had already demonstrated the strength of a seventh-level Dao domain. At least among the cultivators outside the realm, this strength was already top-notch.

In one force, there were actually two great monks who were able to rule a region, which really amazed many monks.

Lu Shifu and Li Zhongping glanced at Yu Wuhen, and when they sensed his aura, they felt relieved.

They were too familiar with this quickly-formed seventh-level Dao realm aura. Since their souls could not match the Dao realm, their strength was destined to be far inferior to that of orthodox cultivators like them who had relied purely on their own training bit by bit. With their strength, they could probably suppress it easily with just three or two moves, so they did not care.

Instead, it was the Lord of Taiyi Mountain, whose aura of the Dao Realm had always only revealed the part of the Refining Void Realm, that made them extremely wary.

Because even in the brief fight just now, the opponent did not reveal anything more, it was simply unfathomable!
But no one would really think that the other party was just a Void Refining cultivator. Even if the Lord of Taiyi Mountain said it himself, no one would believe it.

If anyone were to say that the Lord of Taiyi Mountain was a cultivator of the Refining Void Realm, I would be afraid that Master Lu would be the first to jump out and slap that person in the face.

His mind turned slightly. Seeing that more and more outsiders were coming from the steps, Li Zhongping and Lu Shifu looked at each other with caution but in tacit understanding. Li Zhongping looked at Wang Ba and said with a smile:
"Fellow Taoist Taiyi, the secret of this mirage should be up there. Shall we continue to move upwards?"

Yu Yu, Yu Wuhen, Wu Yuanwang and others fell silently behind Wang Ba.

Facing Li Zhongping's words, Wang Ba's expression was calm and he said slowly:

"No hurry, it's okay for you fellow Taoists to go first."

Li Zhongping narrowed his eyes slightly, but did not take Wang Ba's words seriously.

He didn't believe that there would be anyone who was not interested in the secret of this mirage, otherwise there would be no need to come here.

Li Zhongping glanced at the white-headed horse monster still lying on the steps, and his mind changed slightly. He said in a deep voice:

"Does anyone want to test the ability of this strange beast?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the outsiders around him all smiled awkwardly, looking away and shrinking back.

Yet they stood together vaguely.

"They are all very cunning!"

Li Zhongping cursed inwardly but did not dare to force it.

As a last resort, he could only look at a cultivator who was asking about his generation.

The other party is a cultivator who has just entered the middle stage of the fusion. In terms of combat power, he is almost the same as an ordinary seventh-level cultivator from outside the realm.

The monk of the Wen generation did not dare to delay either. Holding a Taoist treasure that looked like a book, he quickly climbed the stairs.

Before he got close, he activated his Taoist treasure and used the Taoist domain to bless the book. Suddenly, shadows of ferocious beasts as thick as ink flew out from the book and pounced on the strange beast with a white head and a horse body!

However, what shocked Li Zhongping and Lu Shifu was that all the phantoms of the ferocious beasts approaching the strange beast disappeared without a trace without any response!
"How is this going?!"

The action taken by this monk of the Wen generation seemed to have finally disturbed the sleeping beast.

The next moment, the strange beast slowly opened its deep eyes, and then stood up gracefully.

As the strange beast stood up.

All around, there were wind, rain, thunder and lightning, the sun, moon and the world were turned upside down, as if everyone was in the dark night in an instant.

An apocalyptic image of a catastrophe suddenly enveloped the entire staircase!
The monk of the Wen generation sensed something was wrong and retreated immediately, but it was too late.

A bolt of lightning struck down, instantly smashing the monk's body into pieces!
Only a bit of extremely elusive soul was left, which fell in panic wrapped in the Taoist treasure, but was quickly collected by Zu Wenqiu.

Sensing the strange aura emanating from this strange beast, Li Zhongping and Lu Shifu's faces changed slightly, and they said in unison:
"A Wonderful Sense of Realm!?" (End of this Chapter)
