Evergreen Immortal..

Chapter 329: The Great Pill Enters the Stomach, Half a Step to Innateness

child time.

The chirping of cicadas can be heard outside the window, and the cold moonlight shines on the window frame.

Most of the soldiers of An Ning Guard were outside and did not want to waste their precious time on the double bed which was only two meters square in the Dian Ke Office.

The guest room is very quiet.

in the room.

Li Rui has not slept yet.

He sat cross-legged on the bed, clasped his hands together, and took a long breath.

The momentum around him continued to rise, and finally reached its peak at one moment.

Li Rui suddenly opened his eyes.

Without hesitation, he took out a red-gold pill from the small jade bottle. The rich fragrance of the pill instantly filled the entire room.

The Yi Jin Pill is truly extraordinary.

In the world, only elixirs of the third grade or above are qualified to be called great elixirs.

The Soul Pill that Xia Xiaotang had given to Li Rui before was one of them.

Its grade is even higher than the current Yi Jin Dan.

But the Soul Pill focuses on long-term results and raises the upper limit, while the Muscle-Change Pill focuses more on the present and increases immediate combat power more directly.

Gu Changsheng definitely didn't go out without any preparation.

It was clearly brought specially for Li Rui.

The Yi Jin Pill was precious, so of course he had to use its medicinal power to its fullest, so he did not take it immediately after receiving it, but waited until he had enough energy before preparing to swallow it.

Li Rui tilted his head back and swallowed the entire Yi Jin Pill into his stomach.

The moment it enters the stomach.

The violent power of the medicine exploded in the body.

It was as if every pore was opened, and the extreme feeling of pleasure made Li Rui so comfortable that he almost moaned.

The body becomes ethereal at this moment.

There seems to be no impurities or dirt.

The whole person looks holy and perfect.

Li Rui's body, which was already strong enough, was now filled with a terrifying sense of power, like a prehistoric beast. Just one look at him was enough to make people terrified.

This process lasted for two hours.

With the help of Yi Jin Dan, the areas that were previously difficult to reach with the Qi Hai became clear.

Li Rui's physical strength increased rapidly.

at last.

He slowly opened his eyes.

"Half a step to innateness?"

Li Rui slowly uttered these four words.

A pill of Yi Jin Dan almost allowed him to enter the Xiantian realm.

One month at most.

Once Li Rui has a solid foundation, he will be able to achieve innateness.

It has only been a few years since Li Rui last broke through to Guanhai.

Li Rui caught up with others who had practiced for decades in just a few years. If those innate warriors knew about this, they would definitely vomit three liters of blood.

I'm afraid of being compared to others.

Li Rui's breakthrough was as easy as drinking water.

Too fast, too fast.

'Master Gu is really considerate.'

Agreeing to join Wenxian Tower was truly the best decision I made during this trip to the capital.

This time.

Li Rui's combat power doubled!
If I were to face that hook-nosed man from the Ghost Sect again, I could still blow him up with one punch without using the magic sword.

However, Li Rui did not get carried away by this.

Martial arts are difficult.

Besides, this is the capital city, so there shouldn’t be too many strong people here.

Innate warriors are not rare at all, and even powerful earthly immortals are not illusory.

You still need to be careful.

Li Rui finished all this and then crawled into the quilt and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning.

When Li Rui finished washing up and walked out of the room.

Then I saw Ning Zhongtian, Ge Hong and Wei Ming walking towards the Dianke Office with satisfied looks on their faces.

Obviously.

They were quite satisfied with the customs and culture of the capital.

"Big brother."

When they saw Li Rui, their smiles widened.

Ning Zhongtian laughed and said, "Brother, it's a pity that you don't go. You don't know that the Jiaofangsi in Kyoto is really amazing. The one who played the piano for me yesterday was the granddaughter of the former Minister of Revenue. Tsk tsk."

Li Rui listened and finally came to a conclusion.

Didn't sleep.

As the top authority in the brothel culture of the State of Yu, the Kyoto Jiaofangsi was no longer obsessed with the flesh trade, but had risen to another level.

What matters is spiritual satisfaction.

Unless they volunteered, the former daughters of officials in the Jiaofangsi were not actually required to entertain guests at night.

But that's exactly what happened.

Instead, it made the wealthy customers even more excited, and they flocked to it and rushed to spend money.

It's just for a sense of accomplishment.

How rare it is that the granddaughter of a third-rank official plays the piano for him.

There is no such opportunity except in the capital.

Ning Zhongtian: "Brother, are you going out?"

Li Rui nodded: "Yes, I am going to go to the East Market."

When they heard the word "East Market", Ning Zhongtian and his companions' eyes suddenly lit up.

What's the point of staying in the Jiaofangsi all the time when you come to Kyoto? If you want to say the most worthwhile place to visit in Kyoto, the East Market must be one of the top three.

It was a commercial district designated by the imperial court for business.

It has the reputation of containing all the treasures in the world.

The famous Danding Pavilion, Fulu House and other first-class chambers of commerce are located there.

"Let's go, let's go, let's go together." Tan Hu shouted immediately.

Ning Zhongtian and his companions also moved. They looked at each other and nodded in unison: "Brother, we will follow you."

Li Rui smiled and nodded: "Let's go together."

Yesterday he had already found out the route to East Market from the street vendors.

The capital city has a rigorous layout, with several avenues running through the city. Unlike Qinghe, which has many small and strange paths, it is difficult to get lost.

Immediately.

The brothers walked towards the East Market.

The East Market is so prosperous that it makes people dazzled.

Li Rui and his friends were respectable people, and they were truly enlightened.

An ordinary herbal medicine shop actually sells fifth-grade medicinal pills at the door.

This is placed in Qinghe.

That thing can be regarded as the treasure of Danwangfang.

outrageous.

They shopped for a long time until all the shops closed at 4 p.m., and then they returned to the Dianke Office with a sense of unfulfilled desire.

This trip was a very rewarding one.

The few people had completely used up all the stuff in their waists.

In other words, I don’t have any acquaintances in the capital.

Otherwise, Ning Zhongtian and his companions would have already thought of borrowing money.

Wait until you get back to the guest room.

Li Rui was just about to go to bed when he heard someone knocking on the door.

open the door.

Then he saw that it was one of Nie Siming's personal guards who came to the door.

"Master Li, General Nie wants you to go to his room for a chat."

Li Rui nodded.

After getting dressed, he followed the guard to Nie Siming's residence.

Walk through the door.

Then he saw Nie Siming, wearing a dark green robe, sitting on a wooden bench in the middle of the main room with a sword in hand.

"Master Li, please sit down."

Nie Siming saw Li Rui coming in and greeted him.

Before Li Rui could sit down.

He said, "It just so happens that we happened to catch up with the year of the big exam. The Ministry of War is short of manpower, and Minister Wang happened to hear that we were in the capital, so he asked you and me to be the invigilators."

The so-called year of great competition.

It refers to the imperial examination.

Of course, the Ministry of War is in charge of the military examination.

The imperial examination is divided into four rounds: the academy examination, the provincial examination, the metropolitan examination and the palace examination. Only the year of the metropolitan examination is called the year of the major examination.

Every time this time comes.

All the martial arts heroes in the world will gather in Kyoto to participate in the competition. The winner will be able to enter the palace examination, where the Holy Emperor will personally examine and select the top three.

That is, the top three.

Be a role model for martial arts in the world.

Generally speaking, the realm of candidates participating in the martial arts examination will not exceed the fifth level.

Since he is already a fourth-rank master, there is no need for him to seek an official career through the military examination.

Whether it is the civil examination or the military examination, in the final analysis they are ways out provided by the court for students from poor families. People of noble birth do not need to cross this single-plank bridge, as the road to success has already been paved for them.

Li Rui was speechless.

When Qinghe just redeemed himself from the Zhu family, he actually planned to take part in the military examination and seek an official position.

But later, by chance, I followed Ning Zhongtian into An Ning Guard, and only then did I give up this idea.

Unexpectedly.

He failed the martial arts exam and instead became an invigilator.

Li Rui laughed and said, "It is my honor to be able to supervise the military examination. There is no reason for me not to go."

Being an invigilator in the martial arts examination is a lucrative job.

Since he has made it to the imperial examination, he certainly cannot be a mediocre person.

As an invigilator, he can naturally gain the favor of the examinees, and when these people go out to serve as officials in the future, they can be considered as his juniors.

It is a great opportunity to make friends with these future pillars of the Yu State's military.

Otherwise, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War could even compete with the Ministry of Personnel.

Most of them were because he was in charge of the civil and military examinations.

Those who could invigilate the exams were carefully selected. The fact that Nie Siming was able to get this opportunity showed that he had a very good relationship with the Vice Minister of the Ministry of War, and that he regarded Li Rui as his own talent and was willing to bring him in.

Li Rui is not a person who does not know the overall situation.

Since Nie Siming gave him face, he certainly wouldn't spoil the fun.

"very good."

Seeing Li Rui's ready agreement, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"The competition will last for half a month. I'm afraid you and I won't be able to go back for the time being. I've already told Senior He that he will be returning with the soldiers of the An Ning Guard first. We can go back after we're done."

Li Rui nodded: "Okay."

Done.

Nie Siming then looked at Li Rui with great interest: "Master Li, have you made further progress?"

Before Li Rui could answer, he continued:
"You have to break through quickly, otherwise it will be too lonely to find anyone to practice with in Qinghe."

Li Rui was shocked.

Nie Siming is worthy of being Yuan Dingting's adopted son, his perception is so sharp.

Although he couldn't see Li Rui's strength, it did not prevent him from sensing the changes in Li Rui's aura.

"General Nie is flattering me."

Nie Siming waved his hand: "You are a capable person, but you are not straightforward enough, just like my elder brother."

"Okay, there's nothing else to do. I'll call you when the class starts."

It seemed as if he had already regarded Li Rui as someone in the same realm as him.

Some people are even willing to compare Li Rui with the earthly immortal who ranks first among Yuan Dingting's adopted sons.

Li Rui walked out the door with a smile.

"Martial Arts Examination?"

"It's a good opportunity to broaden your horizons."
