Xuanjian Xianzu

Chapter 1118 West
“This is urgent.”

Li Zhouwei nodded slightly and said:
"Over the years, there are more young men on the lake. With Qing Du's supervision, they won't be too bad. I'm just afraid that they won't be close to each other. As long as the old man is around, there will always be a harmonious and tolerant place among the four veins..."

After hearing his words, Li Ximing felt very melancholy. He stood in the attic and said with lowered eyebrows:
"Although I have achieved the Purple Palace, I don't have many offspring. People on the lake fear me more than they love me. Grandfather can persuade and persuade me on everything, but he can never cause trouble in front of me. If something really happens to the old man..."

This is the indelible gap between the supernatural powers and the mundane world. To Zifu, even if one has established a foundation, he is just an ant that can be killed by a breath. Even if Li Ximing cares about his clan, it is difficult for him to care about these numerous younger generations in the clan. Even if someone has gained energy or established a foundation and is sent to him, he will only give him a casual compliment.

Even though they had very few opportunities to meet Li Ximing's grandson, Li Zhouming, who had also become a foundation-building cultivator, Li Xuanxuan loved him very much. Whenever someone made a breakthrough, he would summon him to take a look and say some heartfelt words to him, which Li Ximing could never do.

The real person stood with his hands behind his back for a while and said sincerely:

"The Li family has been standing till now, and the old man has made so many contributions that no one can succeed him! I think... if things come to that point, this female pill in my hand can save my grandfather for three to five years... I will not hesitate to do so!"

The pill he mentioned was the [Tianyi Tucui Pill] that Tinglan entrusted to him back then. It was extremely valuable and was made from [Tianyi Chunyuan]. It had the miraculous effect of bringing the dead back to life, and taking it could also prolong one's life.

Logically speaking, even the Purple Mansion would be eager to get such elixirs. A Purple Mansion's life span of several years is enough to change many things, and it is definitely not enough to spend it on a Qi training. However, Li Zhouwei was not surprised and said:
"Healing injuries is not uncommon. The value of [Tianyi Tucui Dan] lies in promoting the immortal foundation. My family has a complete set of skills and a precious Taoist tradition. There is no side door or method. This is the only use for it. It is just right to take it."

Li Ximing knew that he was comforting himself, so he just nodded silently and replied:

"First, let's try the usual longevity prescription. I'll go find that old Taoist priest Shanbai from Jiaomu and ask him to come to the lake and prescribe a prescription for recuperation."

Li Zhouwei nodded in agreement and said:
"It is inconvenient for Nun Xiangchun to come to the mainland, so it is better to hold this matter in Zhentao Prefecture. Please ask Uncle to find a reason to ask the old man to go to the East China Sea and bring the elixir over. Also, ask the two of them to take a look and jointly draft the elixir formula."

This lineup is indeed luxurious. Li Ximing was relieved and said:
"That's easy. The old man from Zhentao Mansion has never been there. Although he didn't say it, Li Wen and An Siwei are both there, so he still misses him. I just said I would take him there for a look."

The two of them finalized the matter, feeling really sad. Li Xuanxuan's cultivation was too low, and many of the prescriptions had no foundation to be implemented. Even if his life was prolonged, it would not be long. Even with his Qi training level, he could not use Xuanyi Zhenren's spirit weapon method... Even if he could, he would have to take the talismans on the old man's body into consideration.

The two of them were silent for a while, and Li Ximing quickly changed the subject and told about his trip to Qu Si, saying:

"During your retreat, a major event occurred. Xishu suffered a loss on the Great Western Plateau, and even Qingji Fang and others were injured... and a real person died. To make matters worse, Qi Ze is also unstable."

"Oh?"

Li Zhouwei asked with interest, listening to Li Ximing gloating:

"In Qi Ze, there is a tomb-stealing sword immortal... Do you remember?"

Seeing the golden-eyed young man nod, Li Ximing smiled and said:
"This sword immortal is in the middle stage of Purple Mansion. He has been stuck in the Purple Palace for a long time. It seems that he has made some progress. Once he gets through it, he will be a person who can influence the trend of the world... The Qing family has always had nothing to do with him..."

"But I don't know what happened. There were many disturbances in Shu. There was a place called Xunyangchi. A purple mansion appeared. He claimed to be surnamed Xu and had the sword spirit. He came for revenge. He caused golden air to roll in the sky and took off the head of the county governor there... He openly challenged the authority of the Qing family. The purple mansion of the Shangguan family rushed here and fought for quite a while. Suddenly, they dispersed. In the end, they found out that it was the cultivator behind the purple mansion surnamed Xu who came to rescue them..."

"This incident caused a lot of commotion, but in the end it came to nothing. However, word has spread everywhere that it was the Tomb-Snatching Sword Immortal who came to the rescue."

Li Zhouwei frowned and listened to Li Ximing sigh:
"There are many swordsmen in Shu, and the sword immortal has always been the best in all states. In recent years, it has fallen into decline. There is only one Duoling, and now there is another one, so it is not surprising."

Li Zhouwei suddenly remembered the swordsman he had accidentally seen in the cave, and thought to himself:

"It's Chuan Shu from Shudi, and it's Jin De, so it could be him."

Li Ximing seemed a little hesitant and said:
"I've been paying close attention to this news, especially the three words [Xun Yang Chi]..."

These words made Li Zhouwei raise his eyebrows and listened to Li Ximing:

"I heard that Master Guan Xue died in Xunyang Pond... Master Donghua's sword also fell there. Now the two sword masters are fighting here. Could it be related to this incident?"

Li Zhouwei immediately understood that Donghua Zhenren Li Jiangqun was very likely a person from heaven. Li Ximing naturally thought more about this information. After thinking for a while, he replied:

"It is a great thing that the tomb cannot be used by the Qing family. Otherwise, the cost of attacking Shu in the future will increase exponentially... As for Xunyangchi... Sooner or later, we will attack Shu, and I will go there in person."

Li Ximing nodded secretly and said:

"This is just a piece of news... During the days when you were in seclusion, I did not relax. I have already inquired about a lot of information in the name of [Tian Yang Urn] and found a sacrifice for Qing Lu!"

"Let's take advantage of the temporary stability of the situation between the North and the South to arrange this matter first. I'm afraid that the war will continue and it will be delayed forever."

This aroused Li Zhouwei's interest, and he raised his eyebrows and smiled:
"It's not easy to find!"

Li Ximing shook his head helplessly and said:
"The first place I thought of was still southern Xinjiang."

"The Lord of Bifu Mountain has a natural grudge against our family, so he is an excellent target. He also has a demon king in the early stage of Purple Mansion under his command... But the problem is that the Lord of Bifu Mountain never leaves Southern Xinjiang, and the demon kings under his command can't go far either. If we suppress them on the spot in Southern Xinjiang, it will definitely attract Canlufu to take action."

“If we are extremely lucky and someone suddenly leaves Southern Border and can capture him in the East China Sea, Qinglu Wuyou will be worried, but it will make the Lord of Bifu Mountain alert, and it will be difficult for him to plan anything in the future.”

He said seriously:

"This kind of luck thing is never reliable. Maybe I can lure him out. I only put the Bi Fu series for last... It would be best if I can solve it somewhere else."

"Most of the purple mansions in the world are capable and have backgrounds. I asked carefully and found it difficult. There is no need to think about the ones in the hands of the dragons, and there is no need to think too much about the ones in the North Sea. The only ones that can be calculated are probably the three boundaries of Nanjiang, Boluo Da, and Xihai."

The real person had a look of melancholy on his face and said:
"There is another problem - Zifu is not a small figure. Even if he has no background and is not very powerful, he still has one or two friends who are backed by a certain force... He can't just move at will..."

Li Zhouwei frowned and listened to Li Ximing:

"For example... there is a white elephant in the South China Sea, practicing evil spirits. No one cares about him, but his ancestors have some relationship with Buddhists. The Mahas of the South China Sea know him, and he has several good friends. If we come from afar and kill him for no reason, it would be unreasonable. There must be someone who will stop us, and it might even ruin our reputation."

"The same is true of Brahma."

"In other words, these Purple Mansions have no background, but their connections and magical powers are their background. Purple Mansions rely on their own magical powers, which is definitely not ordinary. Even if it is a Jindan-level force, they will not kill casually unless there is a conflict of interest."

"Besides, if the target gets away, his relatives and friends will be in even more trouble."

His words made Li Zhouwei ponder, and he replied:

"Where's mercy?"

Li Ximing nodded immediately and said:
"I have the same idea. It is hard to find the Purple Palace, but easy to find mercy. The one I am most familiar with is the [Daci Tongcai Temple]. There is a grudge there. For the sake of profit, killing two peacocks is reasonable..."

But he smiled bitterly and said:
"But I don't know what happened. A few years ago, two peacocks were killed in the Great Gift Copper Color Temple. They died unexpectedly. Even the investigation could not find out the right and wrong. The owner of this temple was almost beaten to a dead end, which made the Great Desire Dao extremely dissatisfied. The Great Gift Copper Color Temple is very difficult to obtain."

Li Ximing whispered:

"I asked Sima Yuanli, and after much thought, he said there is another demon temple in the West Sea. We could give it a try, but it would also be a lot of trouble... and we would have to offend people."

"I tried to find out. If we are determined to go to the West Sea, Guo Nanwu can use his personal connections to persuade Sima Yuanli and his men. They are unwilling to go with us. They have no grudges against us and will not offend these forces because we want to sacrifice and refine spiritual tools... They may even think that we are being reckless and want to persuade us."

Li Zhouwei was about to speak when Li Ximing said:
"There is another way - relying on the dispute between the north and the south. However, there are not many Buddhist monks who have mounts and are willing to take them south. I asked Guo Nanwu to go to Yinzhou and ask the immortals there. There is a new Maha in the Great Desire Dao, named [Bashan]. Because of his promotion, his mount has also become Lianmin, so he can be used."

This made Li Zhouwei's eyes light up. He silently calculated the gains and losses, and said after a long time:
"In terms of convenience, it is natural to use the dispute between the North and the South. It is both reasonable and logical, but it will take a long time, and there is no guarantee that this mercy can be caught..."

"Since Jiang Qian and Que Wan's retreat time is similar, let's take advantage of these few years to deal with the demon in the West Sea. Prepare a copy first, and when the North-South fight breaks out, try to catch that one as well. It will come in handy in the end."

"If these two things are arranged properly, my family won't need the Purple Mansion monsters in the short term. The only thing is Jiang Chun... His magic is difficult, and he doesn't have any secrets, so we can wait a little longer."

The two looked at each other, and Li Ximing understood what Li Zhouwei meant:

"My family has talismans to help break through ignorance, so we don't have to wait that long. In other words, the time it takes for the two children to break through is linked to their own cultivation and the difficulty of their cultivation. Que Wan's cultivation is much more difficult, but based on her cultivation, she won't be too slow... We really need to consider both..."

Li Ximing nodded, and Li Zhouwei thought:
"We should try to make this as pleasing as possible and not alert the enemy. Since we just happened to have the [Wall Sinking Water] incident, I'll trouble you to go to the West Sea to deal with it and find out about the local situation. This will kill two birds with one stone!"

"I remember that the [Bi Ting Qing Yan Xuan Ding] has the ability to [Bu Xin], but it has never been put to use. The Fu Shui is in the west, and the Kan Shui is in the north. Uncle can go there in this name, and he can also gain some favors from the locals. He said that it can condense spiritual water... If it succeeds, it will be another good thing."

Li Zhouwei finalized the matter and began to think:

"As for Sima Yuanli...it doesn't matter whether he helps or not, as long as he is willing to lend the magic treasure."

Li Ximing smiled and said:
"He treasures it so much! He doesn't even dare to show it in front of me!"

After hearing this joke, the golden pupils smiled a little, and the King of Wei said:
"No problem, I'll speak for myself."

……

The rain and snow have stopped slightly.

The green lamp in the cave was flickering, and large and small sect scrolls were piled on the stone platform and the ground. A young man in white stood in the cave with a frown on his face, looking thoughtful.

"If I had known earlier... I could have memorized a few more spells..."

Compared with his first life, Li Suining's second life was not long, and the development of things was extremely abrupt. He no longer wandered to southern Xinjiang as in his first life... But this does not mean that there is peace on Wangyue Lake.

'It's a waste of money to build a big house...'

In his previous life, Li Zhouwei gave him the [Divine Scroll of the Celestial Master] and the method of Taixu construction. Li Suining was extremely shocked after reading it. He regarded it as a treasure to gain changes, but the spiritual objects needed for Taixu Xuantao construction were enormous.

"This cave method almost consumed the energy and resources of three generations. With all the losses, even if we add the surplus from Changxiaomen, it is still far from enough... And Cheng Yun is a descendant, so we can't plunder him..."

What he had to do was to write down all the experiences he had in his previous life regarding creating secret realms, in case he needed them!

'Among them, Xuan Tao's formation structure and spiritual objects are extremely complex, with thousands of matching. Fortunately, the foundation-building cultivators can remember them one by one and deduce the corresponding spiritual objects. This is secondary. There is also the Taixu landing points that Aunt Que Wan has calculated for two years! '

He was writing silently when he heard the door of the cave move:

“Knock knock…”

Li Suining frowned and looked up, only to see a black-robed young man slowly walking in. Li Suining was so frightened that he quickly stood up and bowed:
"Meet the King!"

If you really want to think about it, Li Suining felt so sad when he saw the King of Wei at this moment, and he felt ashamed for betraying the trust of the King. He closed his eyes and his voice was a little choked.

Li Zhouwei just sat down on the table beside him, glanced at the files piled everywhere, and didn't ask any questions, but just smiled and said:

"You have been in seclusion for a long time. The old man has mentioned it several times."

Li Suining felt a little guilty and bowed quickly:

"I forgot the time for a moment, but fortunately... I gained a lot!"

The King of Wei smiled and did not ask him any more questions. He stood in the cave with his hands behind his back and raised his eyebrows and said:

"I and Master Zhao Jing have a plan in the West Sea... but I am worried about being plotted against, so I am a little hesitant. I have come here to ask you a question."
