Who cares about childhood sweethearts when they can become immortals?

Chapter 174 Seizing the legitimate son
"Ah Ji, are you leaving now? Don't you plan to continue playing in Fengtian Mansion for two days?" Outside Fengtian Taoist Academy, Zhong Longkong said reluctantly.

Xu Ji shook his head with a smile and said: "I also have the root of fire spirit. This visit to Fengtian Taoist Temple also gave me some new insights into the use of fire attributes. I plan to go back and digest my gains in seclusion."

Xu Ji's words are not false. When he saw Xiao Qiongfeng and Hong Tianyuan fighting before, Xu Ji faintly felt that his understanding of the fire attribute was a little deeper, and this time he came to Fengtian Taoist Academy, which mainly practices fire attributes. During his travels, he felt a special fire-attribute aura that he had never experienced before, which gave Xu Ji a new understanding of his previous insights.

So after Xu Ji and Zhong Longhu visited Fengtian Taoist Temple, they bid farewell to Zhong Longhu and planned to return to Xianling Taoist Temple to digest the new insights in their minds. In addition, this time The trip to Fengtian Taoist Temple also allowed Xu Ji to determine the direction of the various arts that he would study concurrently next.

Formation.

Whether it is attack, defense, or auxiliary practice, formations can play a big role like snake oil. If you can practice formations to a high level, you can set up formations similar to the defensive formations in Fengtian Taoist Academy. Law, even if you travel and practice in the future, you don't have to worry too much about something like the chaos in Qingyuan City caused by the Immortal Cult before.

Even the large array for extracting geothermal heat in Fengtian Mansion gave Xu Ji a lot of inspiration. Why can it only be limited to geothermal heat? Is it possible to arrange a formation to extract spiritual energy to assist one's own cultivation? Or maybe arrange a formation that can help you increase the speed of practicing the Vientiane Life Skill?
Even if other monks can't do all this, if he can rely on the proficiency panel, he may not be able to create the formation he needs as he wishes.

But at that time, why should I worry about the lack of cultivation resources?

"This is the token you gave me before. Keep it quickly to avoid having to sell yourself to pay off the debt later. This storage ring contains some cultivation resources. It can be regarded as a little gift from me."

Xu Ji smiled and took out the red temporary pass token from his arms. He also took out a storage ring. This storage ring was obtained from the sin cultivator when he killed him this time. Although the things he received were of little use to him, they should be of great help to Zhong Longhu who was still at the sixth level of Qi training, so he simply gave them to Zhong Longhu.

"Hey, you are already a Foundation Establishment Master now. If it's an ordinary thing, I won't look down on it." Zhong Longhu also took the token and storage ring from Xu Ji without ceremony and joked.

"I rely on!"

Zhong Longhu's first reaction when he saw the storage ring was that Xu Ji gave it to the wrong ring. After all, considering the training resources of this storage ring, it couldn't be considered a small gift. Maybe Xu Ji gave it to him. The storage ring was reversed with the storage ring I was using, and as a result I gave myself all the money.

Xu Ji did not choose to immediately exchange the immortal skills for cultivation resources. Instead, he went to the library in the Xianling Taoist Academy and exchanged several books on the introduction of formations, as well as several first-order formations in the Qi training stage, intending to go back. Give it a try.

Seeing that Xu Ji's back had disappeared into the distance, Zhong Longhu did not dare to waste time, so he made a phone call. After learning that Xu Ji was not wrong, he still felt a little incredible, even after Xu Ji hung up the phone Zhong Longhu still felt a little dizzy and had not recovered from this windfall.

Looking at Xu Ji's leaving figure, Zhong Longhu smiled, first put away the token in his hand, and then with some anticipation forced a drop of blood from his fingertips to sacrifice the storage ring left by Xu Ji, and then …

"Okay, take your time and see for yourself when the time comes. You should be satisfied." Xu Ji smiled, then waved goodbye to Zhong Longhu, and rushed towards the teleportation array of Fengtian Mansion, intending to return directly to the Fairy Spirit In the Taoist Academy, I digested my understanding of the fire attribute and exchanged some cheats for getting started with formations to try to see if they could be included in the proficiency panel.

Xu Ji smiled faintly. Although the items in the storage ring were only of ordinary value to him, after all, they were the entire net worth of a foundation-building criminal cultivator. For Zhong Longhu, who was only at the sixth level of Qi training. It should be considered valuable.

Xu Ji, who hung up the phone with Zhong Longhu on the other side, also smiled and did not continue to stay in Fengtian Mansion. He stepped into the teleportation array and returned to Xianling Taoist Academy.

It's not that Xu Ji doesn't want to exchange for the second-order formations in the foundation building stage, but that the second-order formations often cost thousands of immortal powers. He only gained 5000 immortal powers in total this time. He will first exchange for the first-order formations and see if he can include them. Enter the proficiency panel, and if you can, it is not too late to exchange for the second-level formation.

After exchanging the formations, Xu Ji was not in a hurry to exchange all his immortal skills for the resources needed for cultivation. Instead, he only exchanged a few materials for arranging the formations and then returned to his cave. .

However, not long after Xu Ji returned to the cave, before he could carefully study the introductory information on the formation that he had just redeemed, someone came up to him. Although Xu Ji felt a little surprised when he saw the person coming, he just felt it for a moment. It suddenly dawned on him, and a smile appeared on his face. He glanced at a corner of the cave with a vague expression, and invited people into his cave. "Senior Xiao Qionggui, I wonder why you came to me suddenly this time?"

"I heard that Junior Xu Ji has returned from a mission, so I came here to visit you." Xiao Qionggui also had a gentle smile on his face, as if he was seeing an old friend for many years. , I would never have guessed that the two people in front of me were fighting against each other in the ring a few days ago.

"Senior's visit this time should be more than just a visit, right?" Xu Ji's smile was a little weird, and her eyes looking at Xiao Qionggui revealed a bit of inquiry, "Senior Xiao Qiongfeng should be here now. Healing, don’t you know why you came to see me, senior?”

The smile on Xiao Qionggui's face also faded a little, and he did not intend to continue to show off, and said bluntly: "This time Xiao Qiongfeng has lost a big face, and he will definitely not let you go easily after he recovers, and I can help "

Xu Ji snorted. It was Brother Hong who cut off Xiao Qiongfeng's arm. It was Xiao Qiongfeng who provoked him first, but in the end it turned out that Xiao Qiongfeng didn't intend to let him go easily. It was all about his own strength. The weakest, the backer Xuanyun Zhenren in the Xianling Taoist Temple went to Lingsheng Pass again, so it’s just a matter of picking the weak ones.

Xu Ji looked at Xiao Qionggui with a deep meaning in his eyes: "Senior Xiao Qionggui, I remember that you should be Xiao Qiongfeng's biological brother, right? How could you help me, an outsider, to deal with me? His biological brother?”

Xiao Qionggui sneered a few times and seemed to ask Xu Ji: "Xu Ji, do you know how a family can maintain stability and prosperity?"

But before Xu Ji could answer, Xiao Qionggui continued: "We need strong people. We need heirs in each generation who are strong enough to suppress all opposition voices within the family. If the heir's strength cannot suppress the opposition within the family, If there are other voices, it will only be a matter of time before the family falls apart."

Xu Ji thought about Xiao Qionggui's words, nodded slightly, and signaled Xiao Qionggui to continue speaking.

"Xiao Qiongfeng is the next successor designated by the family, so he will receive a lot of resources from the family to ensure that his strength can far exceed that of his fellow monks, and that he can suppress the opposition within the family when he leads the family in the future. sound."

"Even though I am Xiao Qiongfeng's younger brother, and even though I also have an innate fire spirit body, just because I was born twenty years later, the resources I receive are less than one-fifth of Xiao Qiongfeng's. That's fine, but based on my understanding of Xiao Qiongfeng, if Xiao Qiongfeng breaks through to the Golden Core, he will not allow me to break through to the Golden Core even if I am his biological brother. "

"Oh?" Xu Ji was a little surprised. After all, no matter what kind of family, they hope to have as many powerful people as possible, so as to ensure the prosperity of the family.

Xiao Qionggui smiled bitterly: "If there is only one Jindan Daoist, then 90% of the Xiao family's revenue will be used for his own cultivation, but if there is no more Jindan Daoist, his cultivation resources will need to be reduced by half. Although if The emergence of multiple Jindan Daoists will increase the Xiao family's ability to generate revenue, but after dividing it by half, the resources obtained will indeed be reduced a lot compared to the original ones. "

"Based on my understanding of Xiao Qiongfeng, he absolutely does not allow anyone to seize his own resources. Therefore, unless his life is running out and he needs to train the next Jindan Daoist, the Xiao family will only have him as a Jindan master. Real person, even if I have a chance to break through the golden elixir, I will be interrupted by it."

"What I want to do now is just to protect myself."

"Oh, that's it." Xu Ji nodded and said with a sudden tone. Although he didn't have much actual contact with Xiao Qiongfeng, he didn't mention it when he came to his door before hoping to get closer to Bai Muxin. When it comes to his younger brother, Xiao Qionggui and Bai Muxin are closer in terms of age, and they believe 30% of Xiao Qionggui's words in their hearts. Xiao Qiongfeng does not seem to be a tolerant person.

But just listen to what Xiao Qionggui said about self-protection and helpless actions. If it is really just about self-protection, the worst he can do is leave the Xiao family. The Immortal Alliance is vast, is it possible that Xiao Qiongfeng can still do it for Looking for him to travel through the 36,000 cities of Jiuzhou Prefecture of the Immortal Alliance?
What Xiao Qionggui wants is nothing more than Xiao Qiongfeng's resources.

Xiao Qionggui looked at Xu Ji, and the gentle smile returned to his face: "How about it, Xu Ji, you will definitely not be able to deal with Xiao Qiongfeng at the eighth level of Foundation Establishment on your own, but if you and I join forces, we can deal with Xiao Qiongfeng." Qiongfeng’s confidence can also be much greater.”

Xu Ji shook his head, smiled lightly and said, "Not enough."
