The Xu family follows Taoism and seeks longevity

After the spiritual pulse upgrade was completed, everyone in the Xu family had smiles on their faces, and the young Qi Refining monks danced happily.

Following Xu Zhikai's order, the tribesmen dispersed, all wanting to see the new look of the tribe's mountain after upgrading their spiritual veins.

With the upgrade of the spiritual veins this time, not only has the height of the clan mountain increased, but the coverage area has also been greatly increased. Originally it was only about a hundred miles in radius, but now it is a thousand miles in radius.

However, although the spiritual pulse upgrade was completed, the fourth-level low-grade formation had not yet been deployed. Xu Zhiyu even asked Shopkeeper Li if he needed help from the Xu family.

Originally he wanted to refuse the former, but when he heard that there were two second-level formation mages in the Xu family, he understood his intention and immediately agreed.

Then Xu Zhiyu found the brother and sister Xu Zhizhi and began to give them instructions.

"Listen, Zhisheng, you two. Now that the upgrade of the family's spiritual veins has been completed, Shopkeeper Li is going to set up a clan defense formation.

I just recommended to him that you two can help him set up flags and other things. You must cherish this opportunity.

Of course, during this process, you can also ask him for advice on the difficulties you encounter in the formation, go ahead! "

"Thank you, Brother Nineteen!"

Xu Zhizhi and the two were overjoyed and kept bowing and thanking their clan brothers. They knew that if Brother Nineteen had not spoken for them, they would not have had the chance to learn the layout of the fourth-level formation from the fourth-level high-grade formation master.

To deploy the fourth-order formation, it is natural to dismantle the original third-order formation.

Naturally, this was not a problem for Shopkeeper Li. He glanced up and down the Clan Mountain with his spiritual consciousness. After determining the place where the third-level formation flag was buried, he directly rose into the air without using the formation disk, made a hand seal, and then muttered something in his mouth. .

Then Xu Zhiyu and others felt that some places on the mountain began to tremble slightly, as if something was about to break out of the ground.

Sure enough, not long after, eighteen formation flags shining with strange brilliance flew out of the ground one after another, and then began to rotate around Shopkeeper Li.

After carefully looking at the material of these formation flags and the formation patterns carved on them, Shopkeeper Li nodded. It seemed that he was quite satisfied with the formation originally laid out.

With a wave of his hand, these formation flags, which were originally several feet long, became only more than an inch long. Then he grabbed these floating formation flags and came to the front of several Zifus of the Xu family.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, I wonder what you are going to do with this formation? If you have figured out where to place it, I can help you."

A set of powerful third-level high-grade formations can still play a big role, but it would be a waste if left idle.

Several members of the Xu family discussed it and finally decided unanimously that this formation should be placed on the lake in the back mountain.

There is a reason for this. Xu Zhiyu's cave is on a small island in the lake. Although it is also protected by formations, it is always good to have an extra layer of protection.

Secondly, the spiritual fish and shrimp produced in this lake have become a special industry of the Xu family. The Xu family's annual income from aquatic products is no less than hundreds of thousands of low-grade spiritual stones.

Seeing that they had made a decision, shopkeeper Li and Xu Zhiyu flew to Linghu Lake in the back mountain. At a glance, the size of Linghu Lake had also increased several times, with a radius of dozens of miles. The originally full lake was now only filled with water. The next shallow lake bottom.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, shall I start?"

"Excuse me, fellow Taoist."

It was much faster to change the third-level formation. It only took less than half an hour to change it, and then the two of them returned to the front mountain.

As soon as they landed, Gao Wushuang, who had been alerting the surroundings in mid-air, suddenly said:

"Uncle Li, Fellow Daoist Xu, there are two Jindan monks coming this way. How should we deal with them?"

Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Li glanced at Xu Zhiyu first, preparing to see how he would react. Unexpectedly, the latter acted very calmly and did not panic at all.

"Fellow Daoist Li, how about we go and take a look together?"

"What Fellow Daoist Xu said is exactly what I want."

"Brother Nineteen, what about us?"

Xu Zhikai seemed to want to follow him to learn more.

"You, the ancestor, and the clan leader can just wait where you are."

After saying that, the two of them flew straight in the direction of the person. Before they flew too close, Xu Zhiyu saw the person's appearance.

One of them he didn't know, and he was at the fifth level of Jindan. The other one was very familiar with him. He was Ling Qikun, the master of Baiyi Sect, and he was at the fourth level of Jindan.

The two sides stopped each other about a mile away, and then began to look at each other.

The two people opposite didn't seem surprised by Xu Zhiyu's appearance. They seemed to have some information about him. However, the other two were a little surprised by the appearance of Shopkeeper Li.

Naturally, they knew the shopkeeper of Taiyang Tower in the late Jindan period, but they didn't expect him to appear here.

This made the fifth-level Golden Core cultivator who accompanied Ling Qikun to check the situation a little panicked. He was just a casual cultivator, and he couldn't afford to offend Taiyang Tower, so he sent a message to his companions:
"Master Ling, what's going on? Why is Shopkeeper Li here?"

"Brother Wang, don't panic. We are here today just to investigate the situation. What are you afraid of? Just try not to talk later and I will handle it."

"That's best."

The monk surnamed Wang stepped back a few feet after hearing this, slightly behind Ling Qikun. The latter curled his lips when he saw this, as if he looked down on the other party's cowardly behavior.

But as soon as he turned his head, he showed a harmless smile, cupped his hands towards Shopkeeper Li and said:

"Shop Manager Li, what a coincidence. I didn't expect to meet you here."

As for Xu Zhiyu, who was waving his wings, he was ignored by him. Although he came to the Xu family today, in his eyes, a Zifu monk of the Xu family was not qualified to communicate with him. Of course, Xu Zhiyu did not answer him. .

"Master Ling, it's quite a coincidence. I wonder why you and fellow Daoist Wang are here today?"

Shopkeeper Li slightly raised his hand in return and asked bluntly. He had heard about the festival between the Xu family and Baiyimen, so he didn't give the other party a good look. "It's like this. A few days ago, when Daoyou Wang went to the Hengduan Mountains to search for a fourth-level elixir and returned, he accidentally felt an inexplicable vibration near the Xu family's clan.

At that time, he wanted to get closer to check, but considering that he didn't have much friendship with the Xu family, approaching rashly would cause misunderstanding, so he left quietly.

After returning to Dahefang City, he came to me and told me exactly what happened. I thought about it, this Xu family was once under my Baiyi Sect. If something happened to the family, I couldn't just sit back and watch, so I came with Wang Daoyou to check the actual situation. "

This rhetoric is so seamless that it sounds like the truth and is irrefutable.

However, Xu Zhiyu didn't quite believe what the other party said. This guy had encouraged the Gou family to set up a trap for them many years ago and wanted to wipe out the Xu family. He had always remembered this account.

He has already planned that after he breaks through the golden elixir, he must avenge this, otherwise he will feel uneasy.

"Then thank you for your concern, Master Ling. To be honest, the reason why our Xu Family Mountain is vibrating is because the family's spiritual veins have been upgraded."

Xu Zhiyu didn't want to argue with him here. He just wanted to upgrade his spiritual veins quickly and then break through the golden elixir stage in seclusion. As for telling him the truth, it was because there was no need to hide it.

The place where they are standing now is only about a hundred miles away from the Xu Family Mountain. The matter of the fourth-level spiritual veins will definitely not escape the detection of the two golden elixir monks opposite.

"The Xu family is amazing. We have only been a Zifu family for a few years, but they are about to be upgraded to a Jindan family. I am really impressed by Ling, so I would like to express my congratulations in advance.

When the time comes to hold the Golden elixir celebration, don’t forget to send an invitation to our Baiyimen. "

"Don't forget to prepare a portion for me, too."

Ling Qikun and Wang Jindan sang and harmonized in a strange and strange way.

In their opinion, it was extremely funny that a Zifu family in the Xu family had a fourth-level spiritual vein, and that the family did not have a golden elixir monk in charge, so they ridiculed it.

"This way, Master Ling doesn't need to worry about our Xu family. I wonder if you two are okay? If you are okay, you can leave."

He felt it was a waste of time to say even one more word to the idiot, so he directly ordered the two of them to be kicked out.

Originally, Ling Qikun and the others wanted to teach Xu Zhiyu, a young junior who had no respect for his superiority, to let him understand what the dignity of the golden elixir is. However, when they saw Shopkeeper Li on the side, they instantly lost their temper. This was a great god, and they really Can't afford to offend.

"Okay, in that case, let's take our leave. Shopkeeper Li, see you later."

"Shop Manager Li, see you later."

The two of them glared at Xu Zhiyu hatefully, said goodbye to Shopkeeper Li, and then flew away.

In their minds, they have already planned that when they return, they must break through the Xu family's mountain spiritual veins to the fourth level and publicize the fact that the family does not have a golden elixir monk in charge.

Looking at their departing figures, shopkeeper Li, who was mature in years, naturally understood what the two men were thinking. He asked Xu Zhiyu, who was frowning at the side:
"Fellow Daoist Xu, after these two people go back, they will definitely tell everything they saw. Your Xu family may not be in peace next time. Have you figured out how to deal with it?"

Xu Zhiyu is also thinking about this problem, but there is no good way. He retreats to break through the golden elixir for at least three to five years, but for seven or eight years. During this period, if someone really attacks the Xu family, relying on the current strength of the family, There's really no way to deal with it.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, I have a suggestion, why don't you listen to it?"

"Fellow Daoist Li, please speak!"

He was really at his wits end now.

"My Taoist friends must also know that the situation of the Gao family is very bad now, but there are still a few golden elixirs in the family. I can try to persuade them to send a monk with a late-stage golden elixir to protect your Xu family. How do you feel about it?"

Faced with this question, Xu Zhiyu did not give an answer for a while, but thought about it carefully.

He has now understood that this shopkeeper Li should have a lot of connections with the Gao family, otherwise he would not have tried every means to get the Gao family to have a relationship with their Xu family, whether it was Gao Wushuang who had been invited to upgrade the protector's spiritual veins, or the protection A late Jindan monk who is in danger of the Xu family's safety.

He knew that if he agreed to this matter, the Xu family would owe a big favor and would have to repay it in the future.

But now it seems that there is no good choice. His breakthrough is already imminent and he has to make a move.

It is unrealistic to find another fourth-level spiritual vein, and it is even more unfeasible to use spiritual veins from other forces to break through. Even if others are willing, he is not willing, and there is no sense of security at all.

"Okay, I agreed. Then I would like to trouble fellow Taoist Li to tell Patriarch Gao. After this incident, our Xu family owes the Gao family a favor."

Xu Zhiyu didn't think about it for long before he agreed. He would talk about the favor later. If he had the ability, he would repay it twice as much. The most important thing now was to deal with the immediate difficulties first.

However, he did not tell Shopkeeper Li about his next breakthrough. He was not ready to let outsiders know about this matter yet. Again, he must be on guard against others.

When he actually experiences the catastrophe, it doesn't matter if others know about it, because the work is done, and after the breakthrough, his combat power will soar directly. He is really not afraid of monks below the false infant level.

If Shopkeeper Li asks about it afterwards, he will say that Venerable Muwei asked him to keep it secret. If you don’t believe it, go to Venerable to verify the situation. Does he dare?
After hearing that he agreed to this suggestion, Shopkeeper Li was extremely happy. He is now close to a thousand years old and just wants to help the Gao family more during his lifetime.

Xu Zhiyu's background, although his master Zhuang Zhenjun is very secretive, has revealed a little bit. He knows that the former is his master, that is, a person valued by Master Muwei who is a god-incarnation cultivator. In his mind, such a person will be in the future. The road must be smooth and bright.

As long as the Gao family can establish a close relationship with such a family, it will definitely be useful in times of crisis in the future.

Then the two of them returned to the Xu family side by side without saying much.

Shopkeeper Li started to arrange the clan protection formation. The whole process lasted for three days. After that, at the request of Xu Zhiyu, he opened a fourth-level low-grade spiritual vein node at the cave on the small island in the back mountain lake. He planned to retreat here. Break through the golden elixir.

After everything was done, the Xu family prepared a sumptuous banquet to reward the two of them. During the banquet, Gao Wushuang, on behalf of the Gao family, had a simple exchange with the head of the Xu family, Xu Shengsheng, on a series of cooperation matters. Finally, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

As for the matter of sending people to protect the Xu family, Shopkeeper Li did not announce it in public, but spoke to Gao Wushuang in private.

Although she didn't understand why this elder who had watched her grow up would do this, she still agreed to try her best to facilitate this matter out of trust.

After sending the two of them off, Xu Zhiyu simply explained to his ancestor and others, and immediately entered the retreat mode. (End of chapter)
