Starting from the Greyhound, seventy-two changes.

The moon hangs high in the sky and the night is as dark as water.

In the city of Yandu.

In the Lingdan Hall, a tall old man, wearing a purple gold crown and with slightly white temples, sat on a throne, holding the armrests with both hands:

"I never thought that a student from the Shenwu Hall who was only at the ninth level could actually attract the Huayue Immortal from the Doushen Palace to come from thousands of miles away and want to accept him as a disciple."

The old man is Lu Zhengfa, the true leader of the Lingdan Hall in Yandu City, and he is also the ninth-grade great alchemist who is second to none in the entire Longyuan land. The Lingdan Hall he founded can be seen even in major sects, and the elixirs they refine are used to train ordinary disciples.

In particular, there is a pill called "Tianling Pill" in the Lingdan Hall, which is even said to be effective for all warriors below the tenth level. It can not only be used to cleanse the marrow and replace blood, but can even improve a little bit of the innate physical condition. It is rare to come across it.

Lingdan Hall is also well aware of the principle that rare things are valuable, so Lu Zhengfa will only refine 100 pills of this kind of Tianling Pill every year.

Below Lu Zhengfa stood a young man in white.

This young man looks to be only about twenty years old, but he is already the nominal manager of Lingdan Hall. He was noticed by Lu Zhengfa for his superior talent in alchemy. His name is Qi Haoran, and he ranks 45th on the Longyuan Genius List.

However, he did not participate in the recruitment of Shenwu Hall. This shows that not everyone has the mentality to join the army and serve the country.

"It is said that Chen Ku killed Hua Qingyun, the disciple of Hua Yuexian. Hua Qingyun was still willing to accept him as his disciple after all this. This idea is really hard for me to understand." Qi Haoran shook his head slightly, indicating that he could not agree with this approach.

"It can be seen from the fact that Li Shentong's Yuan Qi incarnation in Shenwu Mountain was willing to take action himself. Of course, there is a reason for the inviolability of the imperial court's reputation, but the fact that Shenwu Mountain was able to protect this person so much shows that he is indeed qualified to be favored by both Shenwu Mountain and Doushen Palace."

Lu Zhengfa, who was sitting on the armchair, said slowly:

"Maybe, if we wait a few more years, he will really be the next Hua Yuexian. By then, the situation of Long Yuan Wulin will be even more interesting."

"Compared with Hua Yuexian? Just him?" Qi Haoran expressed disdain.

"Don't talk about him anymore."

Perhaps because of his love for this highly regarded successor, Lu Zhengfa did not say much about the sensational matter surrounding Long Yuan's succession, but changed the subject and said:
"Tell me what you think of the newly emerged Danyuan Building in recent months. The power of this building is about to take root in Yandu City. I have tried to test the owner of the building several times, but he slipped away from me time and time again. In this case, targeting him with the simplest method will not have much effect. Do you have any different ideas?"

Qi Haoran seemed to have been prepared for this test, and replied calmly: "Master, the most important thing in alchemy is quality. If you allow me, please let me have an alchemy competition with Dan Yuan Lou. Under the witness of everyone in Yandu City, I have enough confidence to defeat Dan Yuan Lou."

Lu Zhengfa seemed to be thinking about something.

If it is not possible to do something secretly, then defeating the opponent openly with alchemy is not a impossible option.

however.

The two of them didn't know that their conversation in the hall had already been heard by a little bee flying in the hall.

"You did it when you wanted to, and now you want to compete in alchemy. Do you really think you can control everything?"

Chen Ku transformed into a little bee and sneered:
"It's not up to you now!"

His eyes were fixed on the two people below, but he did not act rashly.

After all, this old man is a top master of the ninth level of the ninth realm, and the young man in white also has the combat power of about the seventh level of the ninth realm. He is not afraid of either of them in a one-on-one fight, and even has the confidence to kill them.

But if you attack both of them at the same time, there is a chance of failure.

I listened to the two people below discussing the plan for their Danyuan Building in the hall. After half an hour, the two of them finished talking.

At this time, the young man in white, Qi Haoran, stood up and bowed to Lu Zhengfa, saying, "Master, then we will proceed according to the plan. Tomorrow we will send someone to report to Yandu and spread the news, forcing Danyuanlou to compete with us."

"Okay, let's do it this way." Lu Zhengfa said.

Qi Haoran said slowly: "Then I will take my leave first. I will definitely teach Danyuan Tower a lesson tomorrow."

After that, he bowed again, took his leave, and left the hall. Lu Zhengfa sat on a chair, looking at Qi Haoran's leaving figure, his eyes full of admiration, such a disciple, who has talent and brains, who would not like it.

This was also the reason why he was reluctant to send it to Shenwu Mountain.

What does defending the country have to do with him?

He picked up the teacup, blew gently, and then began to sip the tea.

Of course.

Just as he lowered his head to drink tea.

hum~~
As a master who has reached the pinnacle of blood exchange at the ninth level of the ninth realm, Lu Zhengfa's perception of energy and danger is incomparable to that of ordinary people. In an instant, he felt a sudden airflow exploding above his head.

"Who?!"

With a loud shout, his eyes glanced upwards, his body straightened, and at this moment, the teacup in his hand was shaken by his palm, and it was wrapped in a ball of true energy, turning into the most powerful weapon in the world and striking towards the top of his head.

Killing intent explodes!
[If someone with Lu Zhengfa wants to harm the master, you can obtain the evil spirit of the ninth realm by killing him.]

Woo la~
At this moment, the teacup broke through the air, and even caused the air to be shaken and let out a fearful whimper as if it had intelligence, and the air flow spread to both sides.

And behind the teacup, there is a fist.

It was fair, plump, strong and powerful, with the thumb clasped in the palm of his fist. When he punched out, there was a sense of shaking the space.

"Is this... Hua Yuexian's 'Nirvana Shattering Fist Seal'?"

When Lu Zhengfa saw the punch mark, his eyelids twitched violently.

As an old man in Yandu City, he had witnessed with his own eyes a few years ago the process in which Longyuan's number one evildoer, with his eleventh-level martial arts true body, spanned eight small realms and fought against a thirteenth-level Broken Vacuum master.

The mark of his fist that shattered the space with his physical body left a deep impression on his mind at that time.

So at this moment, I recognized this extremely similar scent.

But before he had time to think about when he had offended the monster Hua Yuexian.

boom!
The punch had already smashed the teacup, causing the porcelain shards to scatter like snowflakes, breaking into extremely fine powder and arriving in front of Lu Zhengfa in an instant.

"Hmm? No, it's not Hua Yuexian's Nirvana Fist Seal. The space is not broken. There is only its shape, not its substance..."

The fist mark came close to his head, but Lu Zhengfa quickly determined the origin of the fist mark. He subconsciously felt a strong curiosity and fighting spirit. His arm suddenly stretched out from his sleeves, and taking advantage of the time bought by the teacup, he made a Dan seal on his chest. His body suddenly burst out with an aura like a furnace.

His body was filled with blood and energy, like a huge furnace with its lid suddenly opened. A terrifying heat wave rose into the sky and instantly spread throughout the Lingdan Hall, even as fierce as a bull.

In an instant, the color of everyone in the Lingdan Hall changed, and they looked at the blood energy of Lu Zhengfa that was rising into the sky.

"Oh no! It's the shopkeeper, someone is trying to assassinate him!"

"quick!"

"Teacher!"

Qi Haoran, who had just walked a short distance out of the Lingdan Hall, turned around and saw the blood energy rising into the sky. His face changed, and without hesitation he stepped back a hundred meters and rushed back to the Lingdan Hall as soon as possible.

But just then, he saw a fist mark as big as a furnace explode in the hall.
