Chapter 204: Chen Guogong's Secret Realm, the Enlightened Ones Have Many Helpers

Qilin has a full foundation of the sixth heaven, and is extremely brave and powerful, much stronger than most human warriors. It might take several months for civilians to dig the huge stones needed to complete the dam to intercept the water flow, but when Qilin reveals his true form, it's just clang, clang, clang.

I finished the basics in half an afternoon.

The reason why the mythical beasts that understand human nature and can cooperate with human plans are the treasures of the country.

That's it.

A waste of labor - three big pig's trotters!

One is roasted, one is braised, and one is stewed in oil, and a large handful of tender soybeans should be put in them.

Pang Shuiyun was personally in charge of the remaining construction and detailed water strategy. Li Guanyi and Yaoguang left for a short while and went to the secret realm, which was only a hundred miles away. The Qilin transformed into its true form, and Li Guanyi flew into the air and landed on the Qilin's back.

Then he stretched out his hand to the side.

The silver-haired girl raised her eyes and looked at the young man in front of her.

Sitting on the back of Qilin, with a sword on his waist, he looks heroic, able to command the support of others, brave and calm. Sometimes she wondered if the young overlord that the first generation Yaoguang saw was also like this?
She reached up and put her hood back on, then held out her hand.

He placed his hand on the young man's palm.

Li Guanyi pulled hard.

The girl flew up all of a sudden like a weightless feather, and landed steadily in front of Li Guanyi, sitting sideways in front of him. Li Guanyi patted the Qilin, and the Qilin's pupils turned into red gold. It stepped into the void, exploded layers of flames, and flew away into the distance.

Qilin is not a flying mythical beast like the phoenix.

Controlling fire in the air is a combat skill.

In particular, the Fire Kirin beside Li Guanyi is actually a malnourished teenager.

But even so, the Fire Kirin consumed a considerable part of its energy and still brought Li Guanyi to a place more than a hundred miles away. The secret realm was located more than a hundred miles in a straight line. In fact, if one relied on two legs to run, climb up and down, and go around in circles, it would take several times more distance.

It was also thanks to the many exotic beast eggs that he swallowed in the City Lord's Mansion of Zhenbei City.

Although most of the family property was accumulated in the Divine Beast Villa.

However, it significantly improves Qilin's self-recovery ability.

At least this method of [Walking on Fire and Rising to Heaven] won't consume too much of your energy.

Li Guanyi saw the map left by Chen Baxian in the Chen State Library. After all, five hundred years had passed. Although the world had not changed a lot, the changes in various vegetation were huge.

In addition, Chen Baxian had left some cover-up plans.

Even the black tortoise had to search slowly for a while.

After Li Guanyi and Yaoguang finished talking, the girl stretched out her hand, and faint starlight gathered together, turning into a three-dimensional map. Then she turned her eyes to Li Guanyi and said in a calm voice: "Is that so?"

Li Guanyi said: "The left side needs to change again."

"Well, now this is right."

Yaoguang raised her hands, and the star map changed and moved, suddenly shrinking. Two small bright spots flashed, marking the locations of Li Guanyi and Yaoguang, and then there was another huge light spot, marking the location of the secret realm.

Yaoguang clasped her hands together, and the map turned into a string of starlight and suddenly flew out.

In the distance, where the woods overlapped, a beam of light appeared.

Li Guanyi, who is trying to find his destination: "…………"

Looking everywhere for the black tortoise statue at the entrance: “…………”

The silver-haired girl reached out her hand and tucked a strand of silver hair behind her ear. She spoke in a calm voice without any ripples:
"Already found."

Li Guan was overjoyed. He drew out his sword and chopped out a huge crack. He continued to move forward. After walking for only a few dozen feet, he vaguely felt a formation used to confuse the direction. With a shake of his wrist, the Tiger Roaring Sky Halberd appeared and fell into his hand.

Li Guanyi asked Yaoguang to retreat, and used the halberd to perform [Destroy Mountains] and [Break Mountains].

The moves are powerful and pure.

The formation of the secret realm slowly opened.

Qilin entered first, followed by Li Guanyi and Yaoguang. After losing Li Guanyi's powerful energy of [Destroying Mountains] and [Breaking Peaks], the entrance to the secret realm slowly returned to its original state and ceased to exist.

In front of Li Guanyi and Yaoguang, the world had changed. An extremely rich vital energy surged over them. Li Guanyi took a deep breath and felt refreshed, and his internal energy seemed to be a little more active. This was the power of the medicine, the smell conveyed by a large amount of five hundred year old spiritual medicine.

Faintly, one could hear the roar of wild beasts, which was more intimidating than the roar of a tiger.

The black tortoise was suspended in the air, its pair of green bean-sized eyes wide open and round.

Turn your head, look left, look right.

First it ran far to the left, then it used its little paws to crawl to the right.

But my eyes were dazzled and I didn’t know where to go.

Li Guanyi was delighted:

"Here are various medicinal herbs left by Chen Baxian, Duke of Chen, five hundred years ago. Gathering them will be enough to rely on the power of these herbs to generate internal energy in their bodies. With internal energy, at least in terms of basic strength and endurance, they will have reached the threshold of the second-tier troops of this era."

"Those with good martial arts skills may even be able to enter the country."

"As for Fan Qing, who had entered the country and dared to kill officials, the benefits may be greater. Yaoguang, help me pick them together."

The silver-haired girl nodded.

The two of them picked the corresponding medicinal herbs together. Among them were not only those planted by Duke Chen in the past, but also those that had multiplied over the past few hundred years. Li Guanyi picked out those that were decades or even hundreds of years old.

Among them, [nourishing qi] and [nourishing blood] are the main ones.

Such medicinal materials have a mild and mild nature, and their medicinal strength limit does not exceed that of ordinary people.

Those special medicinal herbs that are hundreds of years old have strong medicinal properties. To ordinary people, they are like deadly poisons. Only warriors who have reached the second level and have tempered their internal organs can swallow these medicines and push the medicinal properties throughout the body to temper them so as not to kill themselves.

Just as Li Guanyi was picking the fruits, he suddenly heard a roar.

Looking up, he saw an extremely huge black bear, which was inexplicably heavy, as if it weighed thousands of pounds. It opened its mouth and roared with a sound like thunder, and rushed directly towards Yaoguang. Li Guanyi grabbed Yaoguang and swayed his body to avoid the black bear.

Li Guanyi only took a glance and knew what was going on. He frowned slightly:

"This black bear seems to have targeted the two of us for its meat."

The black bear stood up, more than ten feet tall, more than three meters high. Li Guanyi shook his body, put Yaoguang down, and had a Tiger Roaring Sky Halberd in his right hand. He ran forward and stabbed it fiercely with a mountain-destroying move. Although the black bear was strong, it seemed that it had never seen a human warrior like Li Guanyi.

After fighting for only a few rounds, Li Guan found an opening and stabbed forward with his halberd.

The black bear ran out for a few steps, bleeding all over the ground, and fell to the ground dead. Li Guanyi exhaled a breath, his heart moved slightly, and he looked deeper. His expression changed slightly. From a distance, he could faintly see the strange beasts roaring.

There are leopards, tigers, bears, eagles, and evil beasts.

Li Guanyi seemed to be thinking about something.

"These spiritual herbs are emitting strong medicinal properties. Although these exotic beasts do not know how to make pills, they can instinctively feel that the medicinal properties of these spiritual herbs will be beneficial to them. They all want to occupy the areas where the high-quality spiritual herbs grow."

“We’re killing each other over this.”

"So, five hundred years after Duke Chen planted these herbs, these exotic beasts created a new ecological structure based on the strength of the herbs?"

Li Guanyi jumped down from the tree.

Looking at the black bear, this black bear is extremely powerful, but relatively slow, and does not have the ability of the Qilin. A warrior of the third level of the sky, holding a weapon and being cautious, is enough to kill it without any injury. It can also be hunted by more than ten warriors of the second level of the sky.

However, these strange beasts were driven to the outermost circle.

We can only keep the medicines that are younger and bred from the original medicinal herbs planted by Chen Baxian.

When Li Guan thought of the martial arts of Duke Chen, after he snatched the Qilin egg for the first time, he turned around and ran away, and was chased out by Qiongqi. After leaving the secret realm, he looked for an opportunity to kill Qiongqi. It seems that the danger of this secret realm is definitely not low.

Li Guanyi said to Yaoguang: "Be careful and only collect the medicine from the periphery."

The girl nodded and cast the next formation to cover up the bloody smell of the dead black bear. Then she and Li Guanyi quickly picked herbs. Qilin seemed a little confused. He sat on Li Guanyi's shoulder, looked into the distance, and said, "I feel like I'm very familiar with this place."

Li Guanyi replied: "Of course, you were taken out from here."

He told Qilin about Chen Baxian's story, and Qilin became a little melancholy.

He shook his tail and said, "I feel like there is something inside calling me, but I don't know what it is."

"But I feel like we can't get to the innermost part right now."

He became even more sad.

As a divine beast, His perception is very clear.

There are many powerful exotic beasts in it. The status of these exotic beasts is not as good as that of Qilin, but they have lived for too long. Almost most of them are adults or even old age. As a juvenile Qilin, it is sure that it cannot defeat them.

Li Guanyi thought for a moment and said, "We will come here again when we become stronger."

He patted Qilin's head to comfort it, then rolled some grass into ropes and tied up the black bear weighing several thousand pounds. This was an exotic beast with powerful Qi and blood. Combined with these medicinal herbs that were dozens or hundreds of years old, they were enough to stimulate the human body and produce internal Qi.

"That's enough. We have to go."

Qilin restored its true form, Li Guanyi leaped up, and the black bear picked him up with his spear, and Qilin flew away. Just as Li Guanyi and Qilin were leaving, Li Guanyi suddenly felt the silver-haired girl in front of him stiffen.

For the first time, the silver-haired girl seemed to be filled with strong shock and fear.

Li Guanyi and Qilin also felt that breath the next moment.

The boy raised his head suddenly.

The sky of the secret realm suddenly turned red-gold, and the vast clouds swirled and circled, spreading towards the sky. In an instant, a strong sense of vastness fell into Li Guanyi's heart. Qilin carried Li Guanyi and Yaoguang on his back and flew in the sky. In such a huge change of clouds, he felt insignificant. Qilin was also at a loss and said, "This is..."

boom! ! !
The clouds seemed to be rubbed by something at high speed, and a burst of fire burst out, with a sound of breaking air. Li Guanyi's pupils shrank slightly, he stretched out his right hand, and the Tiger Roaring Sky Halberd appeared. It seemed that the appearance of this thing instead angered the existence in the boundless sea of ​​clouds.

The clouds completely turned into golden red, extremely vast and boundless.

Li Guanyi saw something passing through the gap in the sea of ​​clouds. It was a golden-red scale armor.

Dragon roar!

The boy's body paused slightly.

A low dragon roar rose up, far surpassing the aura of the red dragon Dharma images of Li Guanyi and Yue Qianfeng. Then, the clouds dispersed, and an extremely huge and ancient dragon swam calmly above the sky. Even the sun was obscured by the clouds.

This is an old dragon, the strongest stage of the dragon.

He just stared at Li Guanyi calmly, even the sun was eclipsed by its brilliance. The Qilin was only communicating with Li Guanyi in his heart. The ancient dragon spoke with a vast and majestic voice: "The Tiger Roars to the Sky. It has been eight hundred years. Has this murderous weapon been in someone's hands again?"

"Who are you... Has the era of the Red Emperor passed?"

It is the divine dragon from the ancient times that signed a contract with the Red Emperor!
His honorific title——

【candle】!
The Qilin revealed its true form and carried Li Guanyi and Yaoguang on its back. It was actually only the size of the dragon's eye. It slowly soared up there. Looking at this mythical creature, Li Guanyi felt an uncontrollable shock in his heart at the existence of such a being.

Even though the Red Emperor had such an ancient mythical beast back then, it still took him such a long time to conquer the world.

How powerful was the overlord eight hundred years ago?

Is it possible for the pinnacle of martial arts to fight against such a mythical being?

The top general Chen Baxian at that time was frightened away after seeing the ancient red dragon.

I'm afraid only martial arts legends can come into contact with such an existence.

Li Guan thought for a moment, spread out the magic weapons in his hands, then clasped his fists and saluted, saying casually:
"Junior Li Guanyi greets Senior Zhu, the Ancient Red Dragon!"

The Red Dragon stared at Li Guanyi. His eyes seemed to see through Li Guanyi's body and saw the Red Sky Sword Soul in Li Guanyi's body. He said slowly: "I sensed the breath of an old friend in your body..."

"I have been here for eight hundred years. I don't know what the world is like."

Li Guanyi sat on the Qilin's back. He looked at the huge dragon and told it all the major historical events of the past few hundred years. The red dragon remained silent, but suddenly laughed. His laughter was powerful and vast like thunder, but it was filled with a hint of nostalgia. He sighed and said:

"You're right again..."

Li Guanyi was puzzled.

The ancient red dragon swam slowly and said, "My good friend once told me before he passed away that I should go back to see this world hundreds of years later. Even if he is gone, things in this world will still be turbulent and heroes will still emerge."

"But even in the past eight hundred years, there have been countless heroes."

"His name is still passed down among the people."

"The name of the Red Emperor will not fade with time. He said that even if his life is short-lived, his achievements will surpass everything and people will not forget him."

Chilong missed his old friend. His old eyes stared at Li Guanyi and he said in a powerful voice:

"The changes in the world have nothing to do with me. It's just that you can come here, holding the Scarlet Sky Sword, just like you came here in his place. When your realm is raised to a higher level and you come here, I will raise your Scarlet Dragon Dharma Image once, which can be regarded as fulfilling the promise I made to him that year."

The red dragon saw the Qilin again.

The old beast seemed a little disappointed and sighed, "You are still a naive child."

"If you grow up, you can come to the deepest part."

"The previous generation of Fire Kirin left something for you."

Qilin was anxious when he heard this and asked repeatedly: "What is it?"

But the red dragon no longer answered. It just let out a long roar and flew towards the sky. Its dragon scales tore through the sea of ​​clouds. The mere movement of its flight stirred up the surrounding air, making it turbulent like a hurricane. The Qilin could hardly control its flight and was almost thrown out.

After finally steadying his body, he saw only a vast sea of ​​clouds between heaven and earth, but the ancient red dragon was no longer there. Whether it was Li Guanyi, Yaoguang, or Fire Qilin, they all felt as if they were in a dream.

"Ancient Red Dragon, Secret Realm..."

There is no doubt that this secret place has even greater secrets, but Li Guanyi no longer cares about these at the moment. He, Qilin, and Yaoguang took these things back to Chongshan, and then mixed them into medicine, intending to improve the strength of these warriors.

What I didn't expect was that several guests arrived.

When Li Guanyi arrived, he saw Pang Shuiyun chatting with a handsome middle-aged man. The man was wearing a gorgeous suit, had a beard, had a clear temperament, and there was a fox behind him.

"Hahaha, Brother Li, long time no see!"

The man turned around, smiled and bowed, it was none other than the Duke of Ying, Zhangsun Wuchou!
Li Guanyi was surprised and delighted: "Brother Changsun, why are you here?"

Changsun Wuchou crossed his arms slightly and said with a smile, "Changsun Wuchou, I have been ordered to lead thirty rangers from the caravan to help Brother Li."

Behind him were thirty elite men, all of whom had reached the second level of cultivation, with fierce brows, wearing light armor, riding horses, skilled in riding and shooting, equipped with three pots of arrows and light swords. They also bowed slightly with a calm demeanor, not the kind of arrogant people.

It was the light cavalry led by Changsun Wuchou who were able to fight back and forth in the complex environment of the Western Regions. Every one of them was an elite soldier who would be heartbroken if they were killed. Even if they were not as top-notch as the three major cavalry regiments, they could definitely be comparable to the first-line cavalry of various countries.

He is also very good at scouting, detour and other tactics.

Changsun Wuchou took another step forward, picked up a letter and handed it over, saying gently:
"It's a letter from the Second Young Master."

Li Guanyi asked someone to deal with the huge monster that was brought back. He picked up the letter and unfolded it. The handwriting on the letter was sharp. It was Li Zhaowen's handwriting:
"Brother Li, how are you——"

"I am delighted to hear about your success. I wish I could be by your side to help you lead the troops into battle. Yuwen Tianxian is a famous general and is not easy to deal with. I am transferring Wu Chou and the thirty light cavalrymen around him to your command, waiting for your orders."

"Although they are few in number, they are brave and can be used."

"I hope you are well and I look forward to hearing from you."

"When my brother becomes a famous general, I will be here to toast him from afar."

"Respectfully presented by Jiro."

Li Guanyi was slightly moved.

In this era, knowing what Li Guanyi was going to do, he immediately pushed out one of his most capable talents and the few cards he had in Chen. Li Guanyi didn't know whether Erlang was generous or too loyal.

Li Guanyi just laughed carefreely, put the letter away, and said:
"It is my luck that Brother Changsun can come. Please!"

Zhangsun Wuchou smiled and said, "Although I am not a person with outstanding martial arts skills, I am only at the fourth level of the realm. However, I have been a traveling merchant for many years and have some experience in logistics. I will listen to the Second Young Master's orders and will obey your orders from now on."

"In addition, Mr. Xue asked me to bring you a batch of Mohist crossbows and light armor."

He seemed to remember something and said with a smile: "Oh, by the way, I met some people on the road. They seemed to want to see you too. I didn't think they were bad people, so I brought them here." He turned around and pointed. Li Guan looked up and was stunned.

There are two groups of people over there, clearly separated.

Yi Bo was a tall woman wearing a green shirt. Only a pair of eyes were visible, but they were bright and lively. She held a short sword in her hand, throwing and catching it. She was the most beautiful woman in the martial arts world, Nangong Wumeng.

The other wave consisted of five big men.

The leader had just entered the country. He had a rough look, but was quite heroic. However, as he looked around, he seemed to be cunning. It was Lei Laomeng.

Li Guan was shocked, then burst into laughter: "Hahahaha, Lei Laomeng!"

"Why are you here too?"

Lei Laomeng over there had a sad face.

He is so upset now!
Damn it, why, why did they come?!

They had already hurried back, but after hearing about Li Guanyi's incident, his gang of brothers suddenly became drunk as if they had drunk too much horse urine. They said that people from Ying were fighting people from Chen in Chen, which was too shameful. A surge of blood rushed to their heads and they wanted to come over.

Lei Laomeng yelled, "Be steady, be steady, do you understand?"

Then the next day, the four little brats ran away on their own, so Lei Laomeng came over while cursing them. He sighed and muttered, trying to find a way to escape, but the young man over there laughed over, and Lei Laomeng, for some reason, felt furious.

He grinned and was about to ask for some money so he could leave.

Then he heard himself answer: "I think you are short of people here."

Oh shit!

Lei Laomeng wanted to slap himself.

When did the mouth become faster than the brain?
What kind of chivalrous spirit is this? It's clearly seeking death.

Li Guan laughed, looked at the five people from the Divine Beast Villa, bowed deeply, and said seriously:
"Thank you."

Lei Laomeng was in a panic and returned the greeting, saying, "Ah, you, what did you say?"

"this is necessary."

Li Guanyi exhaled and just smiled and said: "It's just right, I have something to show you. You must be experts who know about exotic beasts. I wonder if you are familiar with bear-like exotic beasts?"

Lei Laomeng's eyes lit up and he patted his chest and said:
"Bear? Yes, it's cooked!"

"Haha, that's good!"

Li Guanyi came over with the five-member team from the Divine Beast Villa, pointed at the dead black bear, looked at the dumbfounded disciples of the Divine Beast Villa, and said, "How can we eat this thing to benefit our health?"

Lei Laomeng twitched his lips and said, "Yes, is this the right one?"

Just as several disciples of the Divine Beast Villa who thought they could raise exotic beasts were heartbroken, Li Guan turned his head and looked at the bored woman who threw away the flying knife, and said:
"The most beautiful woman in the world, Nangong Wumeng."

"What are you doing here?"
