"It's getting harder and harder to improve after cultivating Hongmeng Baoqi to the upper level."

In Zhou's Dojo, in a dimly lit training room, Li Wan finished Zhou Tian, ​​slowly collected his skills, exhaled a long breath, and sighed softly.

Now, he has stepped into the realm of alchemy for many years, and he has already consolidated his cultivation in the middle stage of alchemy, and is laying a solid foundation for his future promotion to the later stage. He thought that he was a well-deserved leader among monks of his age, but he only found out after arriving in Zhongzhou. Well, it turns out that there are still so many outstanding masters and evil geniuses in the world, if he is content with the status quo, then he is really a frog in the bottom of a well.

"I still need to refine more high-quality magic weapons to improve my cultivation. Fortunately, I have also refined a lot in these years. When I refine a few more precious treasures, I should be able to break through smoothly."

Coming out of the secret room of practice, Li Wan reflected on himself as usual, changed and washed under the service of Miyan Miluo and two women, and then came out of the room.Now, his daily life is pure cultivation, and he talks with Zhou Yezi about metaphysics, exchanging skills with each other, and if he is free, he will spot-check the progress of the two brothers Xing Qingtian and Xing Youtian and urge them to work hard.

When Xiao Qingning learned that Li Wan was leaving the customs, she personally made Xianzhi Lingtang, and brought Lin Jingshu to comfort her.

After drinking the spirit soup, Li Wan remembered the task he had given to the brothers of the Xing family, and asked, "What are those two little fellows doing now?"

Xiao Qingning said with a smile: "They have been working hard recently. Not only have they finished studying the entire "Xu Bao Dharma Seal" according to your instructions, but they have also taught themselves the secret record of the Dao pattern."

Recognizing the Dao pattern is equivalent to knowing how to read and break characters. If you want to write like a god, write beautiful articles that shock the world and weep ghosts and gods. This is the basic skill, but the more basic skill, the more boring, so these have always been , are the difficulties of teaching disciples.

"It's really hard for them." Li Wan said, "When I was ten years old, although life was poor, I was already in the right place. At that time, I wasted my time by hunting birds and rabbits."

Xiao Qingning smiled lightly and said, "Husband, it turns out that you are also naughty sometimes."

Lin Jingshu also secretly smiled.

Li Wan waved his hand and said: "Births are different, and the responsibilities on my body are also different. I was an orphan from a poor family at the time, and naturally no one controlled me. Now, they have such good conditions. If they still waste their time, wouldn't it be a waste?" Many precious materials, and my painstaking efforts?"

Xiao Qingning said sternly: "That's true, the two brothers have seen the world this time, and learned that there are so many talented masters in Zhongzhou, and there are even people of the same generation as Feng Haoran, who will participate in the master test with your master. Practice, I am afraid that I will never be able to be slack and complacent.”

Li Wan nodded slightly. In fact, this was also the reason why he took the Xing family brothers to travel to Zhongzhou in the first place. Seeing these talented masters was better than his own earnestness.

Li Wan asked some more about Master Gu and others, and learned that they were also busy visiting Zhou's dojo, or busy refining their own artifacts.

As Tiannan masters, although they are not as good as Zhongzhou masters, they still have a lot of entrustments from the local Lingfeng peak masters, island masters, and valley masters.

Even Li Wan himself has a backlog of work pieces that need to be disposed of.

Li Wan chatted with the two girls for a while, and then let them go to play on their own. In Zhou's dojo, there are many disciples and disciples, and each has wives and concubines. These wives and their families get together and have many places to go.

Li Wan's side soon became clear again, and he was busy with the work in hand.

But not long after, a deacon from Zhou's dojo suddenly came to report, saying that Zhou Yezi had invited him.

"Zhou Yezi is looking for me, what will happen?"

Li Wan was a little strange, but she put down what she was doing and followed.

He soon saw Zhou Yezi, who was sitting in the main seat. When he saw Li Wan coming, he got up to greet him, then let him sit in the guest seat, and ordered someone to serve tea.

Zhou Yezi said: "I invited Daoist Li to come here today to inform you that two disciples from Longyezi's family at Dongshankou came to visit, and they named you by name and said they wanted to see you. I would like to ask you and these two disciples Do people have friendship?"

"Long Yezi? Disciple?" Li Wan wondered to himself.

As soon as Zhou Yezi saw Li Wan's expression, he immediately understood, and said with a light smile, "You two are so cunning, even Zhou was almost fooled by them, that's how it is, I have some differences with their master. friendship, and they came here under the guise of visiting them, so it's not easy to refuse, but I never thought, Li Daoyou, you don't know them at all."

Li Wan asked, "What exactly do they want?"

Zhou Yezi said: "I haven't asked them, but if there is no accident, it should be a door-to-door challenge. I'm afraid they want to compete with you!"

"Challenge?" Li Wan's expression was slightly different, "I really guessed it right. This is because people are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. They have an old relationship with Zhou Yezi, so they dare not do too much, if it is in Kongming Valley, Tiangongfang, they would dare to come to the door to tear down the signboard, right?"

Li Wan has also heard before that talented masters are proud and arrogant, and they compete for fame and fortune with each other, and there are very fierce conflicts, especially for someone like himself who has just obtained the title of a master and whose status in the world is not yet stable. Of course there are people who admire and admire her, and her reputation is widely spread, but the negative impact is that she has become the target of many young masters who are eager to become famous.

If you defeat yourself, you can step on the top... Such a challenge is not as friendly as the communication between myself and Zhou Yezi, Master Gu and others.

Seeing Li Wan's expression, Zhou Yezi knew what he was thinking, and said, "I'd better just say you're not here, let them go back."

Li Wan shook his head and said, "Friend Zhou, you don't have to, just let them come here for a while."

Li Wan knew that Zhou Yezi said this because he didn't want to cause trouble, but as far as he was concerned, he seemed scared when he didn't see them.

When Zhou Yezi heard it, he nodded slightly: "Okay then, this matter will be handled by you, Li Daoyou."

He said and left.

Li Wan sat in his seat, drinking tea and waiting. Not long after, two young monks were brought in by the deacon of Lingfeng.

"Two fellow daoists, this is Master Li." Deacon Lingfeng finished speaking and withdrew.

"Master Li?" Among the two young monks, Senior Brother Long looked at Li Wan with some curiosity and scrutiny. When he saw Li Wan's face that was not much older than himself, an imperceptible ray flashed in his eyes. of different colors.

"Master Li face to face, I have admired you for a long time."

The two were insincere, arched their hands and said.Then he sat down without being invited, and found a chair in the hall to sit down.

With a smile on his face, Li Wan asked, "Two fellow Taoists, you are being polite. I don't know how to address you?"

Brother Long said: "Well, I am Long Yicheng, and this is my junior brother, Dong Huaming. We are also disciples of the Lingbao Sect. Like Master Li, we are all people in the Tao. Recently, I heard that Master Li was awarded the title of master. Come here to congratulate me."

Dong Huaming also looked at Li Wan with a little provocation and said, "Master Li is really relaxed and at ease living here, but I heard that the wind and clouds outside are all caused by you, fellow Taoist." Woolen cloth."

"Oh?" Li Wan smiled and said, "Li Wan has been practicing in seclusion recently, and knows little about the outside world. I don't know what the two fellow Taoists are referring to?"

Seeing Li Wan pretending not to know, Long Yicheng and Dong Huaming couldn't help but feel depressed for a while. What they wanted to say was that the rumors about Li Wan were getting more and more outrageous and exaggerated in the outside world. They wanted to take the opportunity to satirize Li Wan's shameless hype and self-promotion, but Li Wan refused to admit it, and they had no choice but to do so for a while.

Seeing this, Long Yicheng didn't want to be suppressed, so he changed his mind and said: "We heard that Li Daoyou is very skilled in martial arts, so we came to ask for advice."

Li Wan smiled, "I don't know what the two friends are planning."

Long Yicheng said: "It's very simple, we will set up a battle in this dojo, and respectfully ask Master Li for advice!"

Meetings and gambling are very common in the open Zhongzhou territory, so although Long Yicheng knew that he and Li Wan had different identities and standpoints, he didn't feel anything wrong.

Li Wan heard it, but laughed loudly: "If I don't agree, what will happen to the two fellow Taoists?"

"No?" Long Yicheng and Dong Huaming were taken aback.

They have been praised as geniuses since they were young. If they get along in a different place, they will definitely have to fight, but they really haven't thought about what to do if the other party avoids fighting.

The two of them suddenly felt a little troubled. Li Wanren didn't know anything about Li Wanren's background and personality. This time, he came to the door to challenge him because he heard those exaggerated rumors outside. He was dissatisfied, but he really didn't do it. Prepare accordingly.

Long Yicheng's mind was not slow, and when he realized that Li Wan might refuse, and the two of them couldn't force him, he immediately sneered and said aggressively, "Li Daoyou, are you scared? Yes, it took so much effort Fortunately, I passed the trial and got the title of a master, of course it is better to return to my own territory and make a fortune in silence."

Li Wan's smile gradually subsided, and he showed hesitation: "Two friends, the method of provoking generals is useless to Li. Since you say that the master's title can be picked up by luck, I beg you to do it too." First go to the Yuanfu Pagoda to pick one up, and let’s talk about it after becoming a master! A master challenges a master, this is just and fair, not a master, saying anything is superfluous!"

"Come on, see off!"

After Li Wan finished speaking, she walked away, leaving only the two sitting dumbfounded.

But soon, the two of them recollected it, and the dullness on their faces disappeared, replaced by endless aggrieved and angry.

You actually said that you have to become a master to be eligible to challenge him?Madness!It's just too crazy! (To be continued.)
