Chapter 124 My Father, Lord Taiping

The mountain marrow is like an energy source, contained in crystals that are neither gold nor stone, and sealed in wood.

It burns when it meets fire, melts when it meets water, and dissolves when it meets soil.

If it encounters a body of flesh and blood, it will flow and change on its own. Li Guanyi didn't know that such mysterious treasures from heaven and earth have their corresponding ways of picking them. At this moment, the Qilin roared, following the guidance of instinct, just like a person who eats when hungry and drinks when thirsty, and swallowed the mountain marrow in one gulp.

Li Guanyi watched helplessly as the aura he used to rescue Qilin dissipated.

Then he saw a bright yellow aura leaping from the body of the Fire Kirin. The Kirin kept roaring, seemingly in extreme pain. Li Guan didn't care about anything else. He raised his hand and the other statues flew out together, surrounding the Kirin in the center again in the position of the [Four Symbols Sealing Spirit Formation].

So the Qilin's roar was suppressed.

But the roar did not disappear. It just echoed in this small courtyard, becoming more and more solemn. The Dharmakaya and Li Guanyi's mind were connected. He sensed the changes that took place in the Kirin Dharmakaya at this moment. The pure fire element energy tried to swallow the mountain marrow energy.

However, the energy of the mountain marrow is a treasure at the same level as its own status and the Qilin's true body.

That was a pure energy of earth.

Fire creates earth.

The influx of Fire Element from the Qilin Dharma Image not only failed to restrain the Wu Earth Energy, but instead caused the Wu Earth Energy to begin to expand rapidly. The Fire Qilin itself let out bursts of low and painful roars, and its own survival began to be in question.

At the critical moment, Li Guanyi became calmer.

The four spirits roared together, dragons roared, tigers howled, phoenixes cried, and turtles roared. The young man's hair was raised, and he formed the Yin-Yang family seal with his hands and said, "How come you are more greedy than me?!"

This moment is more dangerous than the previous confrontation with Hou Zhongyu.

At this moment, Li Guanyi was deducing the [Four Symbols Soul Sealing Array] alone. The dragons roared and the tigers howled, and the four spirits kept changing their positions. He used the theory of the Five Elements' mutual generation and mutual restraint to assist the Fire Kirin's transformation, suppressing its true spirit to be immortal and unchanging, and the Five Elements kept generating and restraining each other.

Accompanied by a miniature deduction of this unparalleled formation.

Li Guanyi's blood flowed rapidly, and his eyebrow acupoints felt a little painful.

He had heard a saying in his previous life.

Talismans should not be drawn lightly. It would be fine if you don't have the ability to draw them, but if you really draw them correctly, it will consume mana if you have it, and consume blood if you don't have it. At this moment, the spiritual power of the ancestral orifice between the eyebrows is consumed, and the qi and blood in the body are surging, and are changing rapidly.

Just when Li Guanyi thought that he might have suffered a serious injury, a familiar medicinal power suddenly emerged from his muscles and bones, causing the blood in Li Guanyi's body to surge again.

The latent medicinal power of [Eternal Moon Immortality Elixir] was forced out again under such circumstances.

It is impossible for Li Guanyi, who is at the second level of his cultivation, to completely absorb this miraculous medicine.

The young man realized this and felt relieved and overjoyed:
"Hou Zhongyu, ah Hou Zhongyu, I am so grateful to you!"

"You are such a good person!"

At this moment, when his energy and blood were drastically consumed, the latent medicinal power was stimulated again. At the same time, as Li Guanyi deduced the changes in the formation, the Fire Kirin slowly lost its initial brutality and tyranny, and instead showed a sense of grandeur and magnificence.

Li Guanyi breathed a sigh of relief.

Four spirits guard the sky, and Wu Earth sits in the center.

Amidst the roars of dragons and tigers, the red Qilin fire suddenly spread out in all directions, and then the ground began to shake and bulge. An auspicious Qilin with bright yellow scales, slightly shaking mane, and four feet stepping on fire, possessing both red and bright yellow auspicious colors, walked out slowly.

And finally, a mysterious connection was formed between the five Dharma images of Li Guanyi.

Li Guanyi suddenly realized.

In fact, there is no need to deliberately force the Dharmakāya body to fit into one. When the five elements of the Dharmakāya appear at the same time, a cycle is naturally formed between the Dharmakāya. At this moment, he is standing there, with the auspicious Qilin of Fire and Earth standing beside him, the dragon and the phoenix in the sky, and the white tiger quietly pressing its claws, as if a myth is reappearing.

Only the black tortoise.

The black turtle was lying on Li Guanyi's shoulder.

A claw grabbed the boy's black hair at the temples.

The other claw pointed in the direction of the distant library.

His eyes were full of desire, as if he was afraid that Li Guanyi didn't notice him.

He pointed that way even harder.

"Don't worry, there will be a chance after the grand competition." Li Guanyi comforted the black turtle, and then looked at the prismatic crystal that had turned into a hollow hole and survived the danger, his eyes filled with pity and regret.

He never thought that the mountain marrow was actually a stream of energy. Since it caused changes in his Qilin's appearance, it meant that it was useful to Qilin, and Hou Zhongyu's direction was not wrong.

Even the queen would be cautious with this kind of treasure.

I don’t even want to think about getting a second one in a short period of time, but how can I get Qilin out?

When Li Guanyi was regretting, he suddenly heard a cold voice, saying: "The mountain marrow turns into a spirit and transforms into the Earth Qilin. It's interesting, but that's all." Li Guanyi looked up suddenly with his weapon in his hand and saw a man standing on the wall.

His white hair fell to his waist like weeds, his eyes were cold, and he stood with his hands behind his back.

Li Guanyi felt a slight discomfort in the ancestral acupoint between his eyebrows.

Li Guanyi suddenly noticed that the old man's clothes did not flutter in the wind, and the whole person was like a shadow, as if he was an illusory existence. The old man looked at Li Guanyi and frowned, "I said, who knows that the formation I left behind is not a formation, but a method of cultivation?"

"But he's a little guy."

The formation left behind?
Li Guanyi finally realized who this person was.

It is one of the most famous schools of thought in the world, and ranks second among the top three schools of thought.

Yin Yang School·Si Wei!
Li Guanyi held the sword in his hand, his alertness reaching its utmost.

Didn't they say that this person had fled far away in pursuit of a great formation that covered the entire Central Plains? Why was he here?

The grand festival of the State of Chen was truly a whirlpool; all kinds of people had come here.

How come there’s a big mine with every step I take?
The young man groaned inwardly.

Si Wei and Old Man Siming are old enemies. Li Guanyi retreated quietly, grasped the crossbow on his waist with his right hand, suddenly pulled it out, and shot it towards the bronze bell on the side, intending to make a big enough noise to attract Old Man Xue.

However, the crossbow arrow was shot out slowly and weakly, and finally froze in the air.

The old man with white hair like weeds stretched out his hand, grabbed the crossbow arrow, and sneered:
"A little clever."

Li Guanyi knew that there was a huge difference between him and these old monks who had become famous at least sixty years ago.

After thinking for a moment, he threw away his crossbow without hesitation, then bowed and said politely:
"Senior is extremely intelligent. He left behind such a great formation at the age of thirty. I only understand it because of the guidance of Hou Zhongyu, the sorcerer guarding the Qilin Palace."

"Sorcerer Hou Zhongyu is smart and courageous. He disregards his own safety and teaches the formation without reservation."

"I am just a junior who has a little understanding of this formation."

"If you want to discuss this formation, you should go find Senior Hou Zhongyu."

Si Wei said calmly: "Hou Zhongyu?"

"You mean the warlock you killed?"

"Boy, are you cursing me to die early?"

The old man casually turned the crossbow arrow around, pointing the tip of the crossbow arrow at Li Guanyi, and then as if time accelerated again, the crossbow arrow shot towards Li Guanyi at a rapid speed. The young man punched out and knocked the crossbow arrow down, leaving a white mark on his finger, and then he quickly recovered.

Raise your hand and draw your sword.

Si Wei floated over and said, "You know I am a Yin-Yang master, but you still talk nonsense."

"Let me see your quality."

He stretched out his hand with five fingers spread out, and fell directly towards Li Guanyi. The void stagnated and turned directly into the [Four Symbols Soul Sealing Formation], which smashed down on his head. Li Guanyi saw that the person was not friendly, so he retreated fiercely and drew his sword to sweep across. This was a top-grade heavy sword.

The sword tip emitted a cold light and slashed across Si Wei diagonally.

Ripples appeared on the old man's body.

He said: "Five elements body, four spirits gathered together, golden muscles and jade bones, dragon tendons and tiger marrow."

"No wonder you can suddenly understand my formation."

"I thought he was some kind of genius, but it turns out he has a special body."

"However, this kind of body is suitable for commanding a formation. Boy, follow me to build a formation. I will grant you a formation boy."

The old man nonchalantly ignored Li Guanyi.

"I'm afraid that won't work, Senior."

"Youngsters, I still have things to do."

"I haven't married yet."

Faced with such an old monster, Li Guan just answered with a smile and could even make a joke.

Not timid.

He stepped back, then suddenly raised his hand and clenched it. The dragon and tiger energy surged, and it turned in the air, transforming into a Yin-Yang formation. Si Wei dodged, and the Yin-Yang formation turned once in the air.

Li Guanyi leaned forward to avoid the old man's careless sweep of his sleeves. He pressed his right hand on the ground, and the black tortoise transformed.

The core of the [Four Symbols Soul Sealing Array] changed again.

He was competing with the madman who created this formation for the core of the formation.

The old man was surprised. He was arrogant by nature, and Li Guanyi's behavior was just what he wanted. He sneered twice, took a step forward, and the center of the formation that the young man had been trying so hard to snatch was changed again.

A red dragon and a white tiger appeared on Li Guanyi's left and right, with dragon roars and tiger howls. The young man started to make a move, and the two Dharma images suddenly rushed forward and converged in the air. This was the [Dragon and Tiger Trapped] variation of the [Four Symbols Soul Sealing Array].

His understanding of the formation could not catch up with the old man in front of him.

But he has the four spirits and five elements in his body.

His body is equivalent to a large formation.

The dragon and tiger trapped both of them.

The old man stood with his hands behind his back, watching the young man set up the formation without putting up any defense, as if he wanted to see how far the young man had come in his formation. Facing the sound of the four spirits chanting and the five elements flowing, he actually put his hands behind his back, then looked at Li Guanyi and said just one word calmly:

"Come."

In one word, domineering and arrogant.

As Li Guan exhaled, the blood and energy in his body roared.

The old man lowered his eyes, and the surrounding formation changed again.

At this moment, a thunderous shout suddenly came from the sky, and an old voice angrily said: "Si Wei, you have the nerve to attack the youngsters!?"

An object flew down and hit Si Wei in front of him, breaking the confrontation between the two.

It was a token with Yin and Yang on the front and Sima Ming on the back.

Si Wei snorted coldly, his body dispersed into Qi, and then gathered on the wall again.

Li Guanyi and Si Wei's brief fight mostly involved the practice of formations, which tested one's mind. At this moment, Li Guanyi breathed a sigh of relief and saw an old man in a grey robe and messy white hair squatting on the other side of the wall, looking angry and wanting to curse.

It was the old man Siming whom Li Guanyi had not seen for a long time.

When Si Wei saw Siming, he stopped arguing with Li Guanyi and said calmly:

"I thought you would remain hidden forever, just like your Dharma image."

"Be an old bastard."

Siming cursed: "Humph, old man, you still want to tell me where you are hiding?!"

Si Wei stood with his hands behind his back and simply answered, "The Mansion of the Grand Tutor of Ying State."

Yingguo Taishi Mansion is in Yingguo country, thousands of miles away from here. Si Wei actually has the ability to be here, but Siming laughed, then widened his eyes and said, "Bullshit!"

"I don't even know your abilities, how can it be possible that you are thousands of miles away?"

Li Guanyi breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he heard Siming was not convinced but still said: "At most it is three thousand miles."

Li Guanyi's eyes narrowed slightly.

Can you really do it?!
Is this the world’s top Yin-Yang sect?
Siming looked at Si Wei, his expression becoming more serious, and said, "The grudge between you and me has lasted for sixty years. It's hard to tell who's right and who's wrong. Why do you have to involve this little guy?"

Si Wei said to himself: "Implicate?"

He suddenly laughed wildly: "Involved? Siming, don't flatter yourself."

"I came here only to find that someone had solved the puzzle I left behind. I thought he was a genius in formations, but I never thought it was a large mobile formation. I thought he was just an ordinary person, so I just wanted to see his skills. Since you think so highly of him, then I'll take him!"

"Catch them and sacrifice them to form a large formation, which will be enough to become a brilliant move."

Siming said: "Xue Daoyong is here. He didn't come at the moment only because your attainments in formations are sufficient to conceal the aura here. But if a real fight breaks out, the old man's arrow will make a hole in your neck in the next breath. Do you want to take a gamble?"

His original intention was to scare Si Wei away.

But I never expected that this madman would burst into laughter, with a wild and unrestrained look on his face, and said:

"Okay."

"Let's bet!!!"

"The stakes are your life and mine!"

It seemed as if he was planning to start fighting right away.

Siming's face froze, and then he cursed him as a lunatic.

He glanced at Li Guanyi, his lips opening and closing, silently conveying his thoughts. Si Wei's eyes wrinkled, and after a long time, the world's number one madman finally put his hand down and said, "Are you telling the truth?"

Siming nodded.

So Si Wei remained silent, and he said, "Okay, let's put aside our grudges."

"I will go to the academy."

He said: "The Scarlet Sky Sword suddenly whistled. This is the sword of the emperor."

"Be in charge of the dangers of the world and the lives of the people."

"How can the danger of the world not be greater than the hatred between you and me?"

"How can the fate of the world not be a million times more important than your life and mine?"

This lunatic raised his head to the sky and howled, his voice resounding for dozens of miles. He was extremely sad and disappointed. Finally, he said, "Then we will settle the grudge after I have fulfilled my duty. Then we can fight again!"

"That kid, your formation is pretty good. Why don't you think about how to transform the Four Symbols Sealing Spirit into the Five Elements Heaven Suppressing Formation."

"If you were to travel the world, I would go find you and see if you have the comprehension ability. You are a fool and are not qualified to carry my formation."

Siming had a headache. Such a matter was secret, so he secretly transmitted the message.

Unexpectedly, Si Wei was too lazy to transmit the message and just spoke directly.

Fortunately, he did not use the long howl later to tell this matter, and only Li Guanyi heard it, otherwise it would have been a big deal.

Si Wei left in the air, Siming exhaled, squatted there and cursed, and when he saw that Li Guanyi was fine, the old man was relieved and said with a smile: "Ha, I'm glad you're okay. When Si Wei, the old madman, gets crazy, he doesn't care about other people."

"Old Xue is not here today, so I yelled at him."

"However, Old Man Xue probably didn't expect that someone in Jiangzhou City would dare to do such a thing before the grand sacrifice. He was right. At this time, even the flying thieves disappeared in Jiangzhou City. But Si Wei never acted reasonably."

"But why do you have this Fire and Earth Qilin Dharma Image?"

"This thing is rare."

Although they both practiced the Yin-Yang technique, Si Wei and Siming's paths were different.

Si Wei cannot see the Dharma image and needs to fight to sense it.

The first thing Mr. Siming saw when he came over was the auspicious Qilin, and he was envious.

Li Guanyi told everything, including his regrets, but Siming laughed and said, "Hou Zhongyu, that kid built the wrong road. Qilin is of the same status as Shan Sui, but why does he think that he can change the same level of Fire Qilin by relying on Shan Sui?"

"The mountain marrow is just this small, and the Fire Kirin is a living being. No matter how you calculate it, the Fire Kirin is stronger, and its stamina is endless."

"It needs to be a blessed place like the cave that breeds the mountain marrow before it can change again."

"A new Qilin power is being nurtured within the Fire Qilin."

"Otherwise, at best it will just give Fire Qilin diarrhea."

Old Siming smiled and patted Li Guanyi on the shoulder, saying, "Okay, you are fine. You are a good boy for not showing any fear in front of the old madman Si Wei. It's time for me, an old man, to do my job."

Li Guanyi grabbed his sleeve.

Old Siming was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

Li Guanyi had been secretly looking for Lao Siming to inquire about his aunt's injuries. Now that he met him, there was no reason for him to let him go. He quickly told him about his aunt's injuries. Lao Siming frowned and said, "The Dharma image is trapped in the lock..."

"I do have a way to deal with this, but it requires special materials. These things are not easy to get, and this kind of injury is definitely not something that ordinary people would get. Little guy, can you tell me why your aunt was injured like this?"

The old man had a serious look on his face.

Obviously, he would not help unless Li Guanyi convinced him.

Li Guanyi was silent for a long time. He put down his sword and then bowed and said:

"My father is Li Wanli."
