The Xu family follows Taoism and seeks longevity

During these three years, apart from cultivation, Xu Zhiyu spent most of his remaining time tirelessly searching for the 'Spiritual Mist Pearl'.

God rewards those who work hard. Perhaps his sincerity moved God, and he finally found a thumb-sized "Spiritual Mist Pearl" thousands of miles northeast of the oasis where he settled.

And that was exactly one month ago.

Seeing that the matter was over, Xu Zhiyu didn't want to stay any longer, because the location of Xuanyang Secret Realm was very far away from the "Liuyun Desert", and it might take half a year just to travel there.

He had to go there early to collect some information about the secret realm, because it would help him find the node to the spiritual world.

Just when he made the decision and was about to leave, something suddenly interrupted his progress.

That morning, Xu Zhiyu was digging up the bare 'Liuyunxiancha' tea tree, wanting to take it away with him.

Although the monsters here lost the ability to resist the erosion of the yellow sand after leaving this place, the same is not true for the 'Liuyun Fairy Tea' tree. It can grow anywhere as long as there is a fourth-level medium-quality spiritual vein.

He did not dig it up and put it into the storage ring in the previous three years because there were still five or six tea leaves on it that were not fully ripe, so he waited for a while.

But what he didn't expect was that just when he was about to uproot the 'Liuyun Fairy Tea' tree, a monk came, a monk who was full of resentment towards him.

"It's you!"

"You are such a coward!!"

In the nameless oasis, two people, who were dozens of miles apart, could see each other through their spiritual sense and exclaimed at the same time.

Although he couldn't see the man's face through the fog, Xu Zhiyu's spiritual sense could clearly see the changes in his expression.

This person turned out to be the Jindan cultivator who was seriously injured by the "Spotted-Winged Thunder Lion" and then escaped. He never expected that the other party would dare to come back.

Not long after, when he looked behind the yellow-robed monk, he understood where his confidence came from. It turned out that he did not come alone this time, but brought with him a helper who also had the cultivation level of the sixth level of the Golden Core.

"Brother Li, why are you so surprised? Do you know the monk in the oasis?"

In mid-air, another monk who looked very young, who arrived here with the yellow-robed monk, frowned and asked.

Hearing his companion's question, the yellow-robed monk came to his senses and replied with a serious face:
"Brother Bai, you don't know that three years ago when I was searching for treasures in the 'Liuyun Desert', I accidentally discovered a fourth-level superior-quality exotic beast. After that, I relied on my excellent concealment skills to quietly follow it to this oasis.

Then I was surprised to find that one of the three treasures of Liuyun, the 'Liuyun Fairy Tea', actually grew here. This discovery made me couldn't help but feel ecstatic.

However, although I found the treasure, I was still racking my brains to figure out how to put it into my bag. In the end, I used the same trick again and wanted to pick the fairy tea by hiding.

But who knew that I would be discovered as soon as I entered the oasis, and the strange beast attacked me without saying a word. "

Hearing this, Bai Jindan couldn't help but interrupt.

"It seems that the strange beast must have its own spies in this oasis. If there is an invasion by foreign enemies, it will immediately discover it."

“Yes, I thought so too.

After my whereabouts were exposed, I simply let it go, thinking that I could fight off the strange beast head-on and then pick the "Liuyun Fairy Tea". I was originally quite confident in my abilities.

I feel that with the help of my natal magic weapon, plus the fourth-level magic tools that I have been refining for a hundred years, I should be able to defeat it.

But the fact proved that I underestimated this strange beast. Its strength was far beyond mine. After fighting for less than three hours, I was defeated and was forced into danger by the monster.

At this moment, the monk in front suddenly came here. I was very happy about his appearance, and I reminded him to pay attention to this powerful beast. I also thought that I could join hands with him to kill the beast together and then share the 'Liuyun Xian Tea' tea leaves. "

Hearing this, the monk surnamed Bai glanced at the monk in yellow robes inconspicuously and did not quite believe his last statement.

The cultivator opposite him was only at the third level of the Golden Core Realm, while he was at the sixth level. The gap between them was quite large. Even if the two of them joined forces to defeat the monster, he might not be willing to share the 'Liuyun Immortal Tea' with the other party.

However, although he thought so in his heart, he did not say so. Instead, he asked:
"Then did the monk across from you finally agree to your request, Brother Li?"

"Of course not, he just glanced at me and the beast, then used his escape technique to leave. I originally thought he ran away because he was afraid of that fourth-grade superior beast, but now it seems that this is not the case.

This person chose to flee at the time, most likely hiding in a secret place, choosing to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and finally reaping the benefits. "

When the monk surnamed Bai heard this, a flash of surprise flashed across his eyes, and he asked in shock:
"From what Brother Li said, could it be that the fourth-grade superior beast has been killed by the person in front of us?"

"That should be the case. Otherwise, it is impossible to explain why he is digging up the 'Liuyun Fairy Tea' tree at this moment, but the strange beast is indifferent."

Faced with this explanation, the monk surnamed Bai did not agree and asked:

"That may not be the case. Maybe the strange beast happened to be out at this moment, and this person saw an opportunity and quietly came here to pick the 'Liuyun Fairy Tea'. It is not impossible!"

“That’s not the case. Three years ago, he was only at the second level of the Golden Core realm. It feels like he just broke through not long ago, but now he is at the third level of the Golden Core realm, and his cultivation is stable.

There is only one explanation for this, that is, he took a lot of 'Liuyun Fairy Tea' which can promote his cultivation, so that he could make great progress in such a short period of time. "

The yellow-robed monk gritted his teeth and said with great certainty.

"Brother Li, you and I have known each other for many years, and logically I shouldn't question what you said, but I still want to share my opinion.

Since that beast is ranked as the top four, and even you, Brother Li, who is at the sixth level of Jindan, couldn't do anything to it, how could a cultivator at the third level of Jindan kill it? This doesn't make sense at all!"

The monk surnamed Bai still shook his head and refuted, because he found too many loopholes in the yellow-robed monk's words, and a little scrutiny would reveal that they were untenable.

“That’s because you don’t understand the situation, Brother Bai. After that guy escaped, I fought hard with the strange beast for a long time. Finally, when I saw that I couldn’t win, I thought about retreating first and then making plans.

But who knew that the evil beast would not give in and refused to let me go. I had no choice but to take out a fifth-grade low-grade attack talisman that I had kept in the bottom of my box and shoot it at the beast.

I never thought that the beast seemed to have the ability to anticipate the enemy. After I sacrificed this powerful talisman, only a small part of the attack fell on it. And this small part of the attack was not enough to kill it, but only seriously injured it. After the beast was seriously injured, it did not choose to escape, but was ready to drag me to death. I saw that this was unacceptable, so I quickly sacrificed another escape talisman and left this place.

So I guess that after I left, this guy sneaked back here and found the seriously injured and dying beast, and finally he took advantage of it."

After the yellow-robed monk finished speaking, he ignored the reaction of the monk surnamed Bai beside him and asked Xu Zhiyu loudly: "

"My fellow Taoist, I wonder if what Li said is true?"

The conversation between the two of them just now did not use any sound transmission technique, so Xu Zhiyu heard it clearly.

Hearing the yellow-robed monk's question, Xu Zhiyu was stunned for a moment, and then began to curse:
"That's bullshit. After you left, the beast was alive and kicking, with no signs of injury at all. Mr. Li, don't you feel ashamed for bragging like that?

But you are right about one thing, that evil beast did die under my sword, and Liu did pick the 'Liuyun Fairy Tea', but I deserved it."

Hearing that his lie had been exposed, the monk surnamed Li was immediately a little angry, but he unexpectedly found a loophole in Xu Zhiyu's words, so he immediately changed the subject:

"Liu? I remember that the last time we met, you called yourself Wen. Now you call yourself Liu. I really don't know how to address you."

"A name is just a code name. What does it matter if my last name is Wen or Liu? I think you should tell me your purpose, Mr. Li!"

Xu Zhiyu asked directly. He had already decided to leave, so he naturally didn't have the time to argue with the other party.

"Okay, okay. As long as you give the [Liuyun Fairy Tea] tree to Li and Brother Bai, and give them a few leaves of tea, the incident of you not saving someone in need last time will be over.

Of course, we won't let you bleed in vain. In exchange, we are willing to give you 50,000 low-grade spirit stones each. What do you think?"

After Xu Zhiyu heard what he said, his eyes instantly became sharp.

As if sensing his murderous intent, Bai Jindan immediately sent a message to his companions:

"Brother Li, please be patient. Since this person was able to kill a fourth-order superior beast, it means that he must have extraordinary skills. Why should we be so aggressive? If we really provoke him to fight, we will not be able to get away with it. Don't you think so?

I think we can do this. Each of us can take out 300,000 low-grade spirit stones and ask him to give us 10 pieces of 'Liuyun Xiancha' tea leaves each. This way, we won't hurt the other party's reputation and our trip will be worthwhile."

The reason why he was invited by the yellow-robed monk to come to the 'Liuyun Desert' this time was because the other party told him that there was a great opportunity to share with him.

Now it seems that this opportunity is the so-called "Liuyun Fairy Tea", but judging from the current situation, this opportunity does not seem to be so easy to get.

Therefore, his opinion was that peace was the most important thing. Fighting to the death here did not seem to be a good option. Moreover, he did not know why he asked, but he felt vaguely afraid of Xu Zhiyu.

However, the yellow-robed monk did not think so. What he said just now was of course false. He also understood that when he used the Wanli Teleportation Talisman to leave, the fourth-grade top-quality exotic beast was basically intact.

As for the strange beasts being injured, that's even more nonsense. They said that just to save face.

In fact, after he teleported away, he immediately hid in the "Liuyun Desert" with his seriously injured body, and finally returned safely to the outer market.

He rented a room in a high-end inn there and spent about a year to completely heal his injuries.

After recovering from his injury, he began to think again. Since he couldn't deal with the beast alone, why not ask for help? You know, there are a lot of tea leaves growing on the 'Liuyun Fairy Tea' tree? How could he give up?

And if you kill the strange beast, you can also get the 'Liuyun Fairy Tea' tree, which is a real treasure!
When he thought of this, his heart was burning with excitement. Although a few pieces of "Liuyun Fairy Tea" were good, how could they compare to the countless pieces of "Liuyun Fairy Tea" that might be produced in the future?
Thinking of this, he immediately left the inn and began to contact his old acquaintances, wanting to go to the 'Liuyun Desert' with them.

After a thorough screening, he finally chose Bai Jindan as his partner. He had his own reasons for making this choice. The other party's cultivation level was comparable to his, so he was not afraid that the other party would turn against him after the success.

But what he didn't expect was that when he brought his helpers and went through untold hardships to appear in this oasis again, wanting to kill the strange beast that seriously injured him to avenge his hatred and pick the "Liuyun Fairy Tea" by the way, he actually met Xu Zhiyu who did not help him.

This made him very angry, and he was about to take action immediately, but fortunately he was stopped by a monk named Bai.

After careful consideration, he began to calm down and found that what his companion had said to him did make sense. It seemed that taking action here was not a good choice, so he also sent a message:

"Okay, Fellow Daoist Bai, I'll do you a favor and not argue with this guy. Just give him an offer and see what he says."

When the monk surnamed Bai saw that his companion had finally stopped being impulsive, he immediately said loudly:
"My fellow Daoist, Brother Bai was a little excited just now, and his offer is not very reasonable. I will convey it to you for him.

The two of us are willing to pay 600,000 low-grade spirit stones to buy 20 pieces of 'Liuyun Xiancha' tea leaves from you. I wonder if you are willing to accept this price?"

As far as Xu Zhiyu knew, thirty thousand low-grade spirit stones in exchange for a piece of "Liuyun Fairy Tea" was actually a very good price.

The price for this kind of spiritual tea in the outer market will basically not be higher than 20,000 spiritual stones, so if the two cultivators surnamed Bai used 30,000 low-grade spiritual stones to purchase a piece of "Flowing Cloud Immortal Tea" for their own consumption, it would not be too much of a loss for both parties.

But Xu Zhiyu was in no mood to think about these things. For one thing, most of the 'Liuyun Fairy Tea' had been drunk by him, and he had only picked five or six leaves, which could not meet the other party's needs at all.

Secondly, he really looked down upon the so-called 600,000 low-grade spirit stones. To be honest, if the other party offered 600,000 medium-grade spirit stones, he might be tempted, but only for a moment.

"Are you done? If you are, you can get out now!"

Xu Zhiyu's voice was cold and emotionless. He just wanted to leave.

"Boy, you..."

The monk surnamed Bai was stunned at first, then his face turned visibly red, and he was instantly enraged by Xu Zhiyu's words.

Xu Zhiyu's words "You can go now" deeply hurt his self-esteem and pride.

He took a deep breath and stopped talking. He just waved his left hand and a sword flashing with blue light appeared in front of him. He wanted to make those who spoke rudely pay the price.

Seeing this, the yellow-robed monk was naturally overjoyed. He had originally intended to take action, but was stopped by the monk surnamed Bai. Now that he saw that the other party had chosen to take action after being humiliated, he no longer pretended and directly summoned his life-long magic weapon, with the tip of the sword pointing directly at Xu Zhiyu.
