The Primordial Law

Chapter 470 The Three Giants of the Hidden Sect

Sensing an unusual aura emanating from the cabin behind the ship where the Water Lily Fairy and Prince Baba were, Li Weiyi immediately took his leave.

"Think it over carefully. There are only ten spots available, first come, first served."

After waving goodbye to Li Weiyi, the hippopotamus demon looked at the water beaver fairy and Prince Baba passing by in their boat: "All the medicinal herbs you entrusted to us have been distributed and sold at various stalls. Besides, they're being sold everywhere now; everyone's shipping out their stock, so prices won't be high!"

"Should we lower the price of the opportunity slot a bit? Twenty million Yongquan coins is too high, and all potential buyers are scared away."

The water beaver fairy immediately made a shushing gesture and shook her head vigorously at the hippopotamus demon.

From inside the cabin at the rear, a woman's melodious voice rang out: "What does 'opportunity quota' mean?"

……

"What a strange sensation. Even the Book of Earth within the Divine Palace is fluctuating."

Li Weiyi quickly moved away from the mirage, constantly seeking opportunities to change his appearance. He guessed that the person inside the cabin was likely Princess Dengfeng's true form.

I wonder if she sensed anything?

Thinking of this, Li Weiyi immediately put the "Book of the Ground" into the Blood Mud Space.

We arrived at a mansion in the southern suburbs of the city's residential area.

Seeing the hidden door mark carved in front of the door, Li Weiyi knocked on the door.

Yao Qingxuan led Li Weiyi into the mansion, which was equipped with defensive formations, planted with various broad-leaved plants, had small bridges and flowing water, and six or seven wooden buildings, giving it a secluded and profound feel.

The entire market town of Moon Dragon Island, including the ships in the harbor, was packed with people.

Stepping inside, it was surprisingly quiet.

"This mansion was acquired by Elder Qin, and it is currently a temporary gathering place for recluses," Yao Qingxuan said.

"Old Qin has businesses all over the habitat, that's impressive!"

Li Weiyi secretly wondered if the Sentinel Army had any special ways of making money.

Qin Garden in Qiuzhou Prefecture was originally Qin Lao's property.

The old man worked his way up in the Sentinel Army, and he owned property after property.

Normal martial arts practitioners would first purchase cultivation resources, unless they had so much money they couldn't spend it all, in which case they would buy these external possessions.

"Master!"

Yu'er ran over quickly, hugged Li Weiyi's waist, and her eyes were slightly red.

The little girl was terribly worried, spending the whole night anxiously awaiting news. Seeing Li Weiyi return safely, she was naturally overjoyed.

"Yu'er, you haven't been crying, have you?" Li Weiyi gently stroked her face.

She shook her head vigorously: "Yu'er didn't cry, but Master, you can't leave me again next time. I'm so worried."

"it is good."

Li Weiyi looked at Ku Di, who was walking towards him.

Kudi bowed deeply and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect that I would become a burden without realizing it. Li Weiyi, I will repay the favors I have today and the grudges I have in the past."

Li Weiyi gently waved his hand. He hadn't saved her for her own sake, but because of the guilt in his heart. Thinking of something, he asked, "Miss Ku, do you know who that powerful figure from the Jiuli tribe who submitted to Coffin Mountain is?"

Kudi said, "Among the important figures of the Jiuli tribe I met in Guanshan, the only one was Li Songjian of the Cangli tribe. He was Xu Fodu's man."

Li Weiyi said, "I have nothing more to ask. You should go and rest."

Kudi sensed that Li Yao and Kudi had important matters to discuss, and wisely withdrew.

Yao Qingxuan stood under the moon, his shadow and the ground forming a beautiful picture: "Li Songjian has died in Huangjiang, and it will be as difficult as climbing to heaven to find him again."

“I killed him,” Li Weiyi said.

A look of surprise flashed in Yao Qingxuan's eyes.

Li Weiyi held Yu'er in his arms and sat down on the stone bench to soothe her: "I want to see the Hidden Lord."

“He was worried about your safety, so he chased after you into the deep sea. Judging by the time, he should be back soon!” Yao Qingxuan said.

Li Weiyi said, "Wouldn't it be inappropriate to bring the Bitter Truth here?"

Do you think she can go back to the Daojiao sect?

Yao Qingxuan stood with his back to Li Weiyi, looking preoccupied: "Back then, I faked my death to join the Rice Cult, but in reality, I was forced to die out of necessity. It was Palace Master An who took pity on me and took me in."

"It is precisely because the Dao Sect knows that I have a reason to die and that I cannot return to the Jiuli Clan that they trust me so much."

“I owe Lord An a great debt of gratitude. So, Kudi, you don’t need to worry about me arranging a way out for her and providing her with the necessary protection.”

Li Weiyi was filled with curiosity about her past and couldn't help but ask, "Why did you have to die back then?"

"You don't have to know."

Yao Qingxuan's tone became much colder.

Li Weiyi said, "I just met a top expert of the younger generation of the Western demon race in Haishi. His name is Bai Yeqing. He is said to be the son of Bai Luan and a primordial Dao spirit..."

"So what if you're a Primordial Dao Spirit? Your cultivation foundation can only be said to have reached the level of a young emperor in the Dao Seed Realm, which may not be comparable to yours or Yao Yin's. In the future, whether you can maintain the level of a young emperor when you reach the Longevity Realm is still unknown. Without the true teachings of the ancient sect and without the ancient sect's full resources to nurture you, you will almost certainly fall behind." Yao Qingxuan continued, "Furthermore, a true Primordial Dao Spirit is born with the Nine Springs broken and the Five Seas opened."

Li Weiyi sensed the emotion in her tone and dared not probe any further, so she kept quiet.

After a long silence, Yao Qingxuan said, "Li Weiyi, how long will it take you to break through to the next realm? With your current cultivation level, there is still a gap between you and the inheritors of the Ninth Heaven."

"What's wrong?" Li Weiyi asked.

Yao Qingxuan said, "You are a hermit, so you must protect Yao Yin. She is the twenty-sixth hidden person."

Li Weiyi said, "Du'e Temple is full of experts. She is the abbot's disciple. Why would she need my protection?"

"Du'e Temple's strength is comparable to Inamiya's, but currently, below the Longevity Realm, they have no advantage and are in a relatively weak period." Yin Jun's voice rang out as he walked quickly through the corridor and asked with concern, "How badly are you injured?"

The Hidden Lord was dressed in an invisibility cloak and wore a metal mask.

Li Weiyi shrugged: "It's just a minor injury, nothing serious."

"Impressive, you can even fight Qiongji Daozi to a standstill, but you're too reckless. Why did you have to learn from her? You're a hermit, and hermits prioritize prudence and rationality in their actions."

Yin Jun gave Yao Qingxuan a cold look. If he had known that she borrowed the peach wood staff for this purpose, he would definitely have stopped her.

Yao Qingxuan said, "No wonder you were nowhere to be seen during the battle of Lingxiao City. Hiding in the Netherworld was indeed safe and secure."

"I deliberately hid? Do you know how badly I was injured? Don't you know how powerful Yang Shenjing is? I'm already doing very well to have survived!" said Yin Jun.

"Gentlemen, is this really worth fighting over?"

Fearing that their differing ideologies might lead to further arguments, Li Weiyi immediately got down to business: "I still need to borrow the peach wood staff. Also, I need the essence of gold marrow, preferably from the Transcendent realm."

The closer one gets to mastering the Golden Bones, the more difficult it becomes to cultivate.

With Li Weiyi's identity as a hermit and his current cultivation level, he can now stand on equal footing with Yao Qingxuan and Yin Jun, and can be called one of the three giants of the hidden sect, apart from the ancient hermits.

During their previous encounter at sea, Yin Jun had already noticed that Li Weiyi's physical body was already quite powerful, and asked curiously, "What level have you reached in your physical cultivation?"

“A long-lived being at 50% strength,” Li Weiyi said.

"Indeed, no wonder he was able to withstand a third-level technique from Qiongji Daozi without being seriously injured."

The Hidden Lord's eyes were full of admiration: "The great things you and the Nine Li Hidden Sect did in Lingxiao City have already spread throughout the world. The Nine Li Clan is now holding their heads high in Lingxiao Realm. As long as the name of the Nine Li Hidden Sect is mentioned, who wouldn't give them a thumbs up?"

"After the war, the Jiuli tribe received a portion of the transcendent flesh and blood, and you will definitely have a share of the golden essence marrow. I have some on me, which I originally intended to use myself, so you can take it first. If it's not enough, I'll go and ask for more."

Li Weiyi received a bottle of extraordinary golden marrow from Yin Jun.

The jade vase was scalding hot to the touch.

Upon opening the bottle cap, a surge of scorching energy erupted, almost like boiling magma.

It is many times stronger than the golden essence and marrow in those longevity bones where a large amount of secret energy has been lost.

Li Weiyi suppressed his joy and said, "I heard that all the forces that attacked the Southeast Netherworld gained a lot, especially the millennium-old medicinal herbs."

Upon learning that Li Weiyi was alive, Yinjun was overjoyed and quickly said, "Don't worry, knowing you're going to feed those seven strange insects, I've reserved a large sum of thousand-year-old elixirs for you. I specifically asked the chieftains of the nine tribes for it; this is your due reward. From now on, the Jiuli tribe will provide... uh... a portion of the resources for feeding the insects!"

"The old folks from all the major tribes and the Nine Li Temple are also eager to meet you. Currently, there are still quite a few experts from their tribes searching for you in the Netherworld."

“Weiyi, the Jiuli tribe will be your home from now on. You will definitely be able to use the resources that Cangli and Yaoyin can use, and you will be given even more.”

Li Weiyi was both amused and exasperated: "Is the Hidden Lord afraid that I'll run away?"

Yin Jun learned a lot of shocking information from the coffin master and some hermits, and was really afraid that Li Weiyi would run away.

Li Wei always repays those who are truly good to him many times over. He took out a set of governor's robes and official seal from his bag: "The upcoming struggle for opportunities may be quite dangerous. I've been keeping this outfit for you."

Yin Jun, of course, understood the value of the governor's robes and seal, and his eyes immediately reddened: "Cang Li has never given me a gift before, especially not such a precious one. Wei Yi, look how much Li Ling has grown up..."

“Hidden Lord, I’m engaged. I have a fiancée. And I’m married. Please make sure to tell those hidden people that this marriage is not to be revealed to anyone,” Li Weiyi said.

"Yes! It's indeed difficult to explain to Zuoqiu Menting."

Yin Jun sighed inwardly. He had heard about the matter, but he didn't think of it as being related to Chan Hai Guan Wu. Mainly, he dared not think in that direction, finding it too absurd.

Li Weiyi said, "I heard that someone at the Du'e Temple is selling the Polar Day True Pill. Could you contact Yaoyin, or Cangli or Yinjiu? If I break through another realm, I will be able to take a greater initiative in the competition for future opportunities."

Yin Jun's heart stirred: "Are you confident that your mental power will improve to a higher level soon?"

With the Cocoon of Time in hand, Li Weiyi was naturally confident, so he nodded.

"If you break through another realm, how could Qiongji Daozi still be your match? Your ability to protect yourself will greatly increase." Yinjun became eager and instructed Li Weiyi to focus on cultivation, leaving all the resources to him.

Currently, the most troublesome issue among the various forces in the Lingxiao Realm who are at the Longevity Realm is that no one below the Longevity Realm can take up the mantle.

Li Weiyi hesitated for a long time, but finally decided to tell Yao Qingxuan what he had learned: "Hidden Lord, I killed Li Songjian. Before he died, he said that the big shot who betrayed the Jiuli tribe was the chieftain of the Yaoli tribe, and that Guanshan Jinji had subdued him when he was alive."

Yin Jun's expression changed abruptly, and he looked sharply at Yao Qingxuan.
