Xuanjian Xianzu

Chapter 1115 Spring Frozen Blood (2)

The Ling River meanders, the mountains rise up, and among the clouds, you can vaguely see a table. There is a golden array embedded on the ground. A woman in white gauze is pouring fine wine beside the table, and a little light shines in the reflection of the wine.

The real person in blue robes stepped forward and said with a smile:
"Daoist Zhao Jing, you came just in time!"

Li Ximing smiled and nodded, glanced at the woman beside him, and said:
"I have often heard that your teachings uphold the righteousness of balancing yin and yang, and that you cultivate the harmony of male and female. Now I see that it is indeed true!"

The immortal who came smiling in front of him was Liao Luo from Qushi Mountain. After hearing what he said, the immortal knew that he was referring to the female cultivators who practiced the Yinlu, so he smiled and said:
"My Qusi inheritance originally has some research on the male and female ways. In ancient times, there was also the great way of the complementarity of yin and yang. Later, the inheritance of Zhaoyuan Immortal Mansion in the Yin family was added - 'Ming Yang'. I believe the real person also knows something about it."

Li Ximing didn't know how to respond to him, so he just laughed twice. Liao Luo shook his head and said with a smile:
"If the Immortal had come here earlier, the atmosphere in the mountain would have been much more naked. In recent years, Jingyi's lineage has divided the mountain, and Kuang Yu has gone to Hengzhu since he was young. There are not many people in the mountain. I also practiced 'Heshui'... This atmosphere has become less severe."

Li Ximing nodded, changed the subject, and said:

"That pagoda..."

Li Ximing had discussed the mundane affairs with Li Zhouwei long ago, and asked Guo Nanwu to bring the things out and hand them over to Liao Luo. Now, nearly a year has passed, and he has received some news and has his own plans, so he came here specially.

After hearing what he said, Liao Luo smiled and said casually:

"Somebody come!"

Then several maids came up one after another, each holding a plate in their hands. There was a stone about the size of two fingers placed on a white jade cushion. The sky was filled with light and flames, making the clouds orange-red.

【Ming Fangtian Stone】.

This [Ming Fang Tian Stone] is about twice as big as the one Li Ximing used for his breakthrough. It is colorful when placed on the jade, which makes him slightly moved.

Just by taking a closer look, he found that this [Ming Fang Tian Stone] was a little different. It was blazing with light and there was a faint flickering of fire. Master Liao Luo said solemnly:
"The materials used in that pagoda are not cheap. They are Ming Fang Tian Shi and Chong Ming Jin Jing. I have taken them out, but the two spiritual objects have been completely mixed together. If you want to separate them, you need to find a 'Quan Dan' monk."

Li Ximing nodded and praised, saying:
"How to be friendly!"

There was a reason why Li Ximing went to find Master Liao Luo. This man was good at refining weapons and practicing "Water Combination". He was first-rate in gathering and collecting water. In just one year, Liao Luo did not even delay his own practice and immediately got the matter done.

And Li Ximing didn't need to find any cultivator to separate the two spiritual objects. It was harmless for him to mix the two spiritual objects together. He just smiled and nodded without asking any more questions.

According to the rules of Qusi Mountain, apart from the due rewards for refining artifacts, all spiritual resources and objects below the Purple Mansion level and with less than 10% of the Purple Mansion spiritual resources added should be handed over to the mountain for collection - just like when Li Ximing secretly gave away elixirs when refining pills, it was a tacit matter. No one had charged Li Ximing any reward, so he naturally would not ask for these scraps back.

Liao Luo waved his hand and led him to the golden platform. There was a fist-sized hole in the middle, leading to the ground. There was a blazing fire inside, and there was a faint golden embryo, as long as an arm and as thick as a finger. Liao Luo said:

"Fellow Daoist said that time is urgent. I asked Nanwu to refine Guangchan's Lihuo Spear together, intending to remove most of the impurities and all the magic in it. After it is formed into this embryo, I can recast it according to your idea. The only difference is that the materials are mixed. The [Tianyang Colored Copper] that was originally on the tip of the spear has been mixed into the whole body, making it suitable for making a spiritual weapon with a unified body!"

"According to the estimated time, it will be completed by the end of the year!"

Li Ximing had never thought that he would be so fast, and he was overjoyed, realizing that the other party's entire sect was busy with this matter, and replied:
"Thank you so much, Master!"

He had an idea in his mind, to make this thing into Li Jiangqian's spiritual weapon in time, but the time taken to make a spiritual weapon was terribly long, and Li Ximing didn't want to have to wait for more than ten years after Li Jiangqian came out of seclusion!

Having this embryo can save me a lot of time.

The real person just smiled and replied:

"I only have some petty tricks here, and only the great masters have the abilities of immortals. You sent that female water treasure here, and it has only been 160 days now. By 300 days, all laws will be dissolved, all paths will be separated, and a new life will be born!"

"Ok?"

After hearing this, Li Ximing's eyes suddenly lit up with joy:
"I heard that the Jade Throne of the Female Water has been tainted to the point where it cannot be eradicated. I didn't expect that it would fall into the hands of the Great Immortal. It would take less than a year to extract all the spiritual objects from it!"

Liao Luo glanced at him meaningfully and said:

"The ability of the Great Immortal is rare in the world! Even when our master was alive, he said that his weapon refining skills have reached perfection!"

Ding Yangzi is in Qi Ze now, so it's hard to meet him. Li Ximing came here in person just to refine the weapon, so how could he not hear what he said? He solemnly pushed out the [Ming Fang Tianshi] mixed with Lihuo and said:

"Please, old master... make a weapon for my family!"

Li had a lot of spiritual resources and spiritual objects in his hands, but not many of them were at his disposal. Although he had four Purple Palace spiritual objects, the one called "Shang Yi" had no use and was used to gather energy first. [Fu Luo Jin] and [Chang Yue Zhi Bian Jin] were used to cast spells, and [Liu Xiang Yi Se] had to be left for Li Quewan. If he squeezed them out, he could still use them.

As for the spiritual resources, they were quite abundant. Thanks to the Zhentao Mansion, the [Feathers Under the Neck] over the years had almost made up for most of the expenditure gap, allowing the spiritual resources to be accumulated bit by bit. Except for the [Soul-Listening Mulberry Wood] which was difficult to calculate, the two portions of [Red Light Amber] were left for Li Jiangqian and were not easy to use.

There are two remaining [Neck Feathers], one each of [Heart-Taste Evil] and [Cangzhou Viper Scale], one each of [Shangxiang Silver], [Late Ear Golden Branch] and [Choumu Heart Ice], plus the newly acquired [Yezhi Lingcao] and the hidden [Toad Heart Armor], there are now nine in total.

'It's definitely enough to be a spiritual weapon!'

The first thing Li Ximing thought of was not something else, but Li Jiangqian's spiritual armor!
Li Jiangqian doesn't have any favorite weapons, but with the [Heavy Fire and Two Mingyi], he can attack and protect himself at the same time. If he has a Lihuo Armor and a Qinglu, he can condense his supernatural powers and pull them out to hold off an ordinary warrior with three supernatural powers!

"What's more, there is a golden embryo..."

Li Ximing was thinking about his own King Wei. Although Li Zhouwei's words "you use it better than I do" were just a joke, he took it to heart:
"After all, he is a powerful figure in the north. It is really inappropriate for him to use a spirit embryo to fight."

So when he mentioned his request, Liao Luo Zhenren immediately thought about it carefully, but shook his head and asked:

"Golden embryo... Since it is forged for the King of Wei, how can it be made with just the broken pieces of Guangchan? I am afraid that it will lose my dignity. I should use the golden embryo as the skeleton, and mix the [Mingfangtian Stone] and [Chongming Gold Essence] into a blade. Let my Great Immortal personally make a weapon, so that we can compete with the spiritual treasures in the hands of those people!"

After hearing this, Li Ximing came to his senses, and a light flashed in his eyes:
'This is a good idea. If these two things are mixed together, I'm afraid I can catch up with Chu Yi, the reincarnation of the Wei Emperor!'

Then he said happily:
"You are right, fellow Daoist! Please do your best to fill in the spiritual resources. If there is any shortage, I hope I can exchange one or two!"

Liao Luo said seriously:
"This is my duty. There are many Mingyang and Lihuo spiritual resources in the mountains, and the Great Immortal has even more. Just leave them to me!"

Li Ximing nodded repeatedly. He now wanted to use the [Feather Under the Neck] to extract spiritual water, so he did not use it. Amid Liao Luo's repeated refusals, he left behind the [Yeja Spiritual Grass] and [Choumu Heart Ice].

He did not plan to stay overseas for long, so he quickly stood up and said goodbye. But before leaving, he could not help but ask one more question:
"If the Female Water Glazed Pagoda is refined... what kind of spiritual object can be obtained?"

True Man Dao:
"At least one female water and one gold object."

'Female water and gold...'

Li Ximing escaped into the void and pondered:
"It seems that I can only give it to Que Wan. Use the "full pill" to cast more spells. If I can use the "six phases of ritual color", it will be just right to refine a magic sword for her. That's good, so that Jiang Qian doesn't get the spiritual treasure, but she is left with nothing."

He arranged everything properly, thought about it for a while, but felt a little uneasy:
"Qu Sishan is an ally and we are helping each other, but he is just taking advantage of others. This is not the way to be an ally, and it is not the way to establish oneself. He may even be burdened by favors."

He thought about it and sighed:
"I can only think of ways to make up for it in the future!"

……

The usually clear surface of Wangyue Lake was now gloomy. The broken ice was colliding violently, making shattering sounds. A faint red color was lingering in the waves, like a piece of blood-red silk, appearing exceptionally calm in the dark wind and rain.

The purple-gold pillar sank into the lake. Its broken cross-section was jagged and uneven, with piles of broken ice and full of light.

The whole mountain was filled with corpses.

Thunder rumbled above the lake, dark clouds gathered, and a dangerous atmosphere was blowing in the face. The woman in the red skirt stood in the gloomy colorful light, saying nothing.

There were faint traces of blood on her pretty face. Her slender snow-white hands tightly grasped the magical sword. Her eyes were cold as she stood in the clouds amid the rumbling sound of thunder.

"Boom!"

A dark shadow was vaguely visible in the heavy clouds. A middle-aged Taoist stood in the sky. He had sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, a broad face and thick shoulders. He was dressed in a white and yellow Taoist robe. He looked calm and composed, and quietly looked at the woman below.

"Lord Xuan An is truly a master of magical powers. Even though he had no more strength left, he still suppressed the immortal weapon and released a ray of Si Tian, ​​causing the lords to misjudge his condition and struggle until now, causing our northern part to suffer heavy losses..."

'Li Quewan...'

The Taoist's eyes were calm, but full of murderous intent, and his tone was smiling:

"Three magical powers - that's pretty capable. If he wasn't born in an imperial family, he would be a gold-seeking person. What a pity."

As he spoke, the winds in the world blew southward, blowing the woman's red skirt into the air. Her slightly pale face concealed deep hatred, and her red lips slightly parted:

"The immortal mountain is a place of seclusion for cultivation, not tainted by the secular world. Lord Yao came down from the mountain to build a pavilion and invade our Song territory. Isn't this...too unreasonable..."

The middle-aged Taoist priest took a step forward and casually pulled out his magic spear from the clouds. One after another, cloud fans began to gather behind him. The sound of swaying metal rang out again. He stroked the spear gently, lowered his eyes, and said lightly:
“Ever since King Wei killed Xuan Lou, this matter is no longer a worldly matter, and there is no logic between me and the Imperial Clan.”

Li Quewan still refused to take a step back, and just stared at Changfeng quietly, watching the magic treasure gradually become brighter. The Taoist smiled and replied:
"As for the mountain, Guan Yi will naturally give an explanation. At worst... I can give this head to the underworld in exchange for their help."

The radiance of Yao Guanyi's perfect magical power was like a bright moon, illuminating the earth. A smile flashed across his brows, and he put away the shining blade in his sleeves. The surprise in his pupils disappeared, and he said:

"It turns out to be the [Invulnerable Stone], which is supplemented by the [Complete Pill]. It is not afraid of water or fire. It seems that even if Su Jun died in the combined water and was newly injured in the future, this spiritual treasure is still powerful."

Although the woman in the clouds was unharmed, her expression became more solemn, and even a little desperate. The magical power in her hands shone with colorful lights.

"Boom!"

Thunder and heavy rain resounded in the sky and earth. Layers of purple thunder flooded the earth again. The few mysterious pillars standing alone on the ground fell down with a deafening roar.

There were very few people on the continent. After an unknown amount of time, a man in bronze armor barely stood up from the collapsed ruins. His shattered eyes slid down his cheeks, and his empty eye sockets stared blankly at the sky.

"Boom!"

The woman was already kneeling on the clouds, and the black sword that belonged to her was already in the hands of the Taoist.

"puff…"

The black sword covered with vermilion runes and used for casting spells pierced through and flew out in the blink of an eye, passing through the woman's chest and breaking out from the feathered robe behind her, emitting a colorful light.

"Well…"

The blood, as sticky as mercury, flowed along the sword edge, still stubbornly trying to retract into her body. Li Quewan's lips turned pale and trembled for a while, and then a shocking scream sounded!
"Ow—"

The loud chirping sound only lasted for a moment before it was immediately muffled by the thunder. A red and white black bird soared into the sky, but the Taoist only nodded slightly.
"It is 'Jeondan' after all."

He just raised his hand, took out a wooden jar from his sleeve and threw it lightly into the air. In an instant, mysterious power came into play and a strong wind blew, which caught the black bird that was trying to hide, making it unable to escape no matter how it struggled!

On the contrary, when they saw the jar, the birds' chirping became even more mournful and desperate.

"Boom!"

The rolling clear and spiritual air poured down along with the silver light, emerging from the ruins. The young man in the silver robe stepped through the void and stood firmly among the blood and flesh on the ground. As far as he could see, there was no one standing.

"Why? Why so fast..."

The most horrifying thing happened right before his eyes, causing him to look extremely terrified and dull.

"The King of Wei...you just arrived at the capital of Wei...why?"

Almost all of Li's direct descendants and cultivators died in the battle on the shore. Those left in the state were all old people and children. How could they withstand the mysterious thunder?

"How is it possible... He has survived for many years after the death of King Wei... How is it possible?"

Li Suining knelt down blankly, looking at the ground with tearful eyes, and suddenly saw a familiar face.

Old man Du.

He seemed to have fallen from a great height, his face was bloody and mangled, but because of the cold weather, his upturned eyeballs were half frozen in his eye sockets, half soft and half hard. Li Suining wanted to reach out his hand but retracted it, not daring to look, and raised his head at a loss.

In the darkness, thunder illuminated the earth. On the top of the mountain stood a man with broken armor, covered with scars, but with a calm look.

'It's Ding Weizhen...'

Ding Weizhen seemed to want to roar, but the blood rushing in his throat made him cough continuously, as if the heaven and earth had been moved, and the anger brewing in the rolling dark clouds had a place to pour out, and a silver lightning flashed immediately!

"Boom!"

The strong man was unable to utter a single sound as his flesh and skin exploded all over his body. His white bones turned into pieces and shattered like a landslide, rolling down into the ruins, painting everything bright red.

The charred skull fell down the steps and hit the broken jade with a crisp sound. It then rolled in the charred wood with a thumping sound, and finally rolled into the flesh and blood, appearing soft and silent, rolling all the way in front of the silver-robed man who was kneeling on the ground.

The man in silver robe looked at it absentmindedly, all he could hear was the sound of thunder, which filled his mind. He could no longer hear any other sound, and he could feel the cold rain hitting his face. The rain created by magic power was difficult to freeze, but it was even more bitingly cold.

His magical connection with the cave heaven allowed him to still get up and escape at this moment, but he also knew that everything was meaningless and everything was settled.

The young-looking man lowered his head, kneeling in the heavy rain, staring blankly at the charred head.

"Clap."

The sound of the black boots stepping on flesh and blood was particularly obvious. The pair of golden and white boots stopped in front of him. The man lowered his head and did not move. After a long time, he heard the Taoist priest's voice:

"Li Suining."

He finally responded, his voice low and hoarse:

"why."

The Taoist raised his hands and spread them out gently. The Tianyang Urn in the sky immediately fell down and landed in his hands. It seemed as if there was something ferocious locked in the urn, and it was shaking violently.

As the magic treasure swayed, various mercury waters and cinnabar began to appear around it. The man laughed and replied:

"Why? Of course, your abilities are so great that you have to use me."

Li Suining raised his chin, his eyes filled with calmness, and whispered:

"Master Yao, if you kill as many people as possible on the lake and wreak havoc, where will you put the Emperor of Song?"

The Taoist casually threw the magic treasure into his sleeve, and all the strange phenomena disappeared. He stared at the sky quietly, with an expression that seemed to be full of emotion and regret:
"No one took the collusion between the King of Wei and Yang Xu seriously. After all, their paths are different. But now, it can be considered as a blessing for both of them."

Li Suining's expression gradually became gloomy. He turned his head and followed the other person's gaze blankly. Rolling water and fire were rising from the south. Under the deep darkness, there was a bit of white mist rising into the sky, floating continuously.

'The South proves the true Qi.'

He just felt cold all over and couldn't understand:
"The Emperor of Song has attained enlightenment? At this time? Why? On what basis?"

"It's too early... It's too early... How could they do this... Can they prove it just because they want to?!"

The thoughts in his mind seemed to be shattered by thunder. He turned his head again in panic and looked towards the northern sky. Finally, under the protection of heavy dark clouds, he saw a point of golden light falling down, floating like the setting sun, faintly hidden in the distant sky.

'North proves Yang.'

Li Suining closed his eyes and started to cry. He felt a heat boiling in his chest and abdomen. He finally couldn't hold back his sorrow and cried:
"We are just asking for a way to survive. You want the King of Wei to ask for gold. He has already arrived in the capital of Wei..."

"Why? Why can't you wait for this moment!"

"Boom!"

The flashing lightning illuminated his face. The rainstorm became more and more fierce. The thunder in the sky kept moving, greedily looking at the earth. The Taoist man raised his spear and stopped it in the blood, staring at him quietly:
"It's too late, Li Suining."

The violent rain caused the blood to ripple and flow rapidly, but it separated itself when it hit the golden boots, leaving a clean area. Yao Guanyi whispered:

"It is certainly your wish that Mingyang falls and the imperial power does not flourish, but is there only one master in the mountain? Who doesn't have a disciple? In the eyes of some people, it is naturally best if King Wei Zhengjin dies."

"I don't want to ruin my future, but I have to avenge Xuan Lou, which is what they wanted."

Li Suining said hoarsely:
"What about the underworld? Where is Emperor Song?"

Yao Guanyi laughed but did not answer him. He wandered around in silence, as if he did not want to answer. It was obvious that his people were being annihilated and his death was approaching. Out of pity or respect, Yao Guanyi finally spoke hesitantly:

"Li Suining, what is the right way to stop lust?"

Li Suining knelt in the heavy rain, looking at him with bloodshot eyes.

Yao Guanyi also looked at him and said calmly:

"The righteous ones protect and prosper the king forever. They are righteous and respectable. The lewd ones are evil and unruly. They are treacherous and indulgent. They are lustful and chaotic. They are usurping power."

"Is regicide righteousness or lewdness?"

"Zheng Xing... is it the King of Wei, or the Emperor of Wei?"

Li Suining's eyebrows suddenly raised, tears of blood fell on his cheeks, and he said hatefully:

"If that's the case, why bother pretending! How dare I claim it's true if Yang Xuan doesn't promise!"

Yao Guanyi remained silent for a long time, then said calmly:

"If a king can depose the emperor, he is a righteous king who punishes the tyrant. If he kills the emperor and dies, then he is a lewd king who is punished by heaven and becomes a righteous king. He is defeated by a lewd bandit. This has been the case since ancient times. The Emperor of Song is confident and believes that the King of Wei can succeed, so he is naturally not false."

Li Suining said hoarsely:
"So even if you failed to get the King of Wei, killing Wei Xuanyin or beheading the Crown Prince of Yan was just an excuse. The King of Wei was too powerful, so we had to trap him in advance, forcing him to beg for gold in the midst of the chaos of the country, and then immediately killing the royal family to damage his power."

Yao Guanyi turned his head and said:
"More than that, this matter...I am not the leader."

Li Suining didn't care. He looked at the endless blackness and said quietly:

"Even if you make timely repairs, if the King of Wei cannot obtain the throne, the fact that the Emperor of Song supported him cannot be erased after all."

Yao Guanyi stood in the rain for a while, the corners of his mouth slowly curled up, he raised the spear again, weighed it in his palm, and smiled:
"Li Suining, you are wrong... Both you and the King of Wei are in the dark because of the authorities."

"You are standing here in the south of the Yangtze River, looking north at the seven ministers and the noble families. How foolish they are! They clearly knew that the King of Wei would be asked to ask for gold on the mountain, and the difference was only success or failure, but they always thought they could obtain their destiny, and they continued to fight, and the last one was a sea of ​​blood..."

"But standing in the north, you look the same in the south of the Yangtze River."

"Do you think the underworld must have Yang Xu Qiuzhen and beg him to ascend the throne? Do you think the underworld can't accomplish anything without him, Yang Xu? This idea... is the same as those monks in the north who think Luoxia really doesn't care about the King of Wei!"

"Li Suining, you are wrong!"

The bright thunder once again illuminated the night sky. Yao Guanyi's brows were filled with self-mockery. The gun had already turned around and was pointing along his arm at the young man on the ground:
"How can the key to the big man's plan be handed over to the hands of the lower repairman!"

He spoke calmly, but the words that came out of his mouth were like a wisp of cold wind, terrifying and deep:

"Yang Xu is the King of Wei, the King of Wei under the control of the underworld."

"They want him to ask for it, but they don't necessarily want him to succeed. Luoxia sees the King of Wei as a means, and the underworld thinks highly of Yang Xuan! As long as he asks for the gold, the matter will be settled."

Li Suining's pupils dilated as he looked at the Taoist priest in disbelief. He slowly lowered his head. The spear pierced through his chest and was nailed into the blood behind him. A strong sense of emptiness came over him.

"puff."

His life was in the cave, and he had countless ways to escape, but all of them were useless in front of this great master with perfect magical powers. The magical power of "Si Tian" disappeared bit by bit as the magic treasure was drawn out, and the man in silver robe spat out large mouthfuls of phantom colors.

These colors turned into a chaotic ball of starlight, moving across the sky, jumping and floating, rising and falling, and appearing in the blood and rainstorm. Soon it dissipated like smoke. His figure flew away like the wind, and Yao Guanyi stood quietly in the rainstorm, staring at the ground in a trance.

In the last moments of his life, Li Suining's head slowly drooped. The rainstorm became more and more terrifying, mixed with snow and ice. The bones and blood below his knees were gradually submerged in the rushing torrent.

For a moment, the void shook, something bright flashed, and a huge eggshell-like light curtain appeared on the broken island, as if a paradise was falling.

"Boom!"

An unknown amount of time had passed, the sky and the earth became hot and cold, and a little bit of colorful light flowed out from the rolling air waves. The middle-aged man stood in the rolling blood, saying nothing, and the six small daggers on his waist were shaking, making crisp collision sounds.

His phoenix eyes gazed tenderly at the blood at the bottom of his feet, watching the rushing water sweeping up the broken ice and meandering into the depths of darkness. The waves near the shore were dark red and sparkling, while those in the distance were still green, as if sinking in the sunset, with half of the river rustling and half of the river red.

The great master Luoxia lowered his eyebrows and said in a low voice:
"Today is the beginning of spring. You... you are really good at picking a day."

Yao Guanyi seemed to understand what he was saying, and laughed, saying:
"Since it was Senior Brother who opened the Jade Word, how can Guan Yi let him down?"

Xue Yang did not smile, but stood there quietly with his back to Yao Guanyi. He did not feel the slightest bit of joy, but instead was filled with greater sadness and confusion. This confusion made him remain silent for a long time, making it difficult for him to speak.

Yao Guanyi threw away the black spear in his hand, took off his clothes, took off his immortal crown, let his hair down, and showed a somewhat free and easy look on his face.

He smiled and said:
"Brother, this is... here to clean up the mess!"

……

The cave was extremely quiet. There was a faint glow on the white jade desk. A layer of dust fell on the thick sheepskin map. The river was painted in thick strokes, winding and soaring, with bright colors.

The young man who was sleeping against the main seat was as if in a nightmare, trembling slightly, and the silver light between his eyebrows overlapped and flickered, trembling rapidly like his breathing. After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly opened his eyes.

"puff!"

Li Suining spat out a mouthful of blood, which sprayed on the ground beside him. However, the blood did not have a single bit of bloody red color. It bounced around like a solid substance, flashing a bright and thin silver flower. His eyes were cold as he stared at the ground, and his face quickly turned pale.

"Cough cough cough..."

The piercing, death-like suffocating feeling in his chest still lingered. Li Suining's pupils quickly became filled with blood. He supported himself on the ground with one hand and covered his forehead with the other hand. The world in front of his eyes was spinning and everything was camouflaged.

After an unknown amount of time, the young man let out a long breath and looked around in confusion. The intense pain was still lingering in his mind, but it could not stop the horror that rose in his eyes.

He sat there in a daze for a while, then turned over quickly in disbelief and looked at the main seat behind him.

After seeing this, the boy started to laugh:

"Hahahahaha..."

At first it was as small as a mosquito, but soon it grew bigger little by little. He laughed so hard that he fell back and forth, his eyes turned red, and tears streamed down his face. He fell to the ground without caring about his image, his face turned pale, but he still couldn't stop laughing.

"Yao Guanyi...I see...Yao Guanyi...I see...that's the reason!"

"So——you were watching the whole time!"

An unknown amount of time had passed before Li Suining stood up as if in another world. He looked around reluctantly, making sure that his life was still in his hands. The [Tian Si Lei Di] was still lingering in his qi sea.

Waves of dizziness kept hitting Shengyang. He was speechless for a long time. Soon he knelt down on the ground again and closed his eyes.

After a long time, Li Suining wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, his expression became resolute again, he stretched out two fingers, and picked up a bit of silver powder made of blood on the ground.

'This is the magical transformation of Si Tian.'

Li Suining had surpassed the foundation-building stage in his previous life and had completely different levels of cultivation and experience. Combined with the piercing pain in his head and the strong dizziness from Shengyang, he only took one look and gained a glimmer of enlightenment.

"This is the price of [Tiansu]... Most of my life has been lost."

But he didn't care at all, and he dispersed the silver light on his fingertips as if he was brushing off some incense ash. Li Suining stood up again and pushed open the cave. The moonlight was bright, and a chill came over his face.

He hurried over the steps, pulled up the old man who was leaning against the steps, and whispered:
"How long has it been?"

The old man said, "Aiya!"
"Ning Ge'er finally came out of confinement. Many people came to ask about it... and they all said... all..."

Li Suining suddenly met his face, but the bloody scene appeared in his eyes, and he pounced on him like a hungry wolf, making him turn his head away in embarrassment, his face turning pale.

Old Man Du was a man who could read people's expressions. Before he finished speaking, he noticed his strange look and quickly changed his words, saying:

"Ning'er... today is the eleventh year of your martial arts training, and the first month has only been three days... and you... have been in seclusion for a year!"

Li Suining closed his eyes, forced back the tears in his eyes, and said hoarsely:

"beginning of spring?"

"It's the beginning of spring."

He suppressed the hatred and fear in his heart and murmured like a nightmare:

"Is the lake frozen?"

"My dear brother...the cold weather has left late in the past two years, and I am frozen."
