The Weird Way of Immortality: My Taoism Progress in One Day a Year

Chapter 214 Clues

"The Ninth Prince actually challenged my second brother to a duel? Is there any way to refuse?"

When Lu Liang passed the news to his family, his elder brother Lu Qin's eyes were full of surprise.

The Lu family came from a family of military generals, and his father was the hereditary marquis of Qiyang.

Lu Qin has been practicing martial arts since he was young, but now he has only just entered the seventh level.

Compared with his second brother Lu Liang, who turned over a new leaf, he is very different.

Lu Liang's predecessor also practiced martial arts at the beginning, and his talent was not weak.

But later on, he couldn't stand the pain of training martial arts and became addicted to alcohol and sex, which led to his gradual abandonment of the art.

When Lu Liang was reborn, he had to start practicing from scratch.

At that time, the Lu family was very disappointed with Lu Liang.

When Lu Liang asked Lu Qin for money to buy medicinal herbs to make up for the deficiency in his body.

Lu Qin still thought that Lu Liang was just using this as a cover to cheat people out of money.

He originally refused, but in the end, thinking that blood is thicker than water, he used his spare money to buy medicinal herbs for Lu Liang.

But I didn't expect that after Lu Liang, he actually turned over a new leaf, no longer obsessed with alcohol and sex, and practiced martial arts seriously.

Moreover, he soared to the sky from then on, and in just two years he became a sixth-rank warrior, becoming the most outstanding martial arts genius in Daqin today.

As a result, the entire Lu family's reputation has greatly increased, and he, as the elder brother, now has a good reputation in the outside world.

But the news that the Ninth Prince had challenged Lu Liang to a battle still scared Lu Qin.

This ninth prince is somewhat similar to his second brother Lu Liang.

But his actions were not as absurd as those of his second brother before.

And what he practiced was not martial arts, but sorcery.

But the most similar thing between them is their talent for cultivation.

It is rumored that the Ninth Prince had no choice but to become a sorcerer after his martial arts vein was destroyed.

But no one expected that his talent as a warlock was so terrifying.

As early as two years ago, he had already entered the sixth rank.

Even the Great Xia royal family was moved by this, and even punished Concubine Li who killed the Ninth Prince.

This kind of thing has never happened before.

Although his second brother Lu Liang also practiced and reached the sixth level in a short period of time.

It seems that the time it takes to enter the sixth level is almost the same.

But the speed of practicing martial arts is inherently faster than that of practicing the sorcerer system.

With the same talent, it would take twenty years to reach the sixth level in martial arts.

Normally speaking, it would take forty to fifty years for a warlock to reach the sixth level.

Because the life span increased by sorcerers is much greater than that of martial artists, it is a complete method of longevity.

But the difficulty of cultivation is also more difficult.

Therefore, the Ninth Prince's talent for cultivation is still superior to that of his ninth brother.

What's more, the Ninth Prince has now experienced two years of precipitation. Even if his realm has not increased, his strength must be much stronger than when he first entered the sixth rank.

And his second brother, Lu Liang, had just entered the sixth rank.

Although outsiders say that his second brother's martial arts skills are close to those of a saint.

However, if the Ninth Prince’s talent was just for show, how could he possibly attract the attention of the Great Xia royal family?

Therefore, the gap of these two years is by no means so easy to make up.

Lu Liang saw the shock and worry in Lu Qin's eyes, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, big brother. The Ninth Prince and I are just sparring, not a life-and-death battle. If I really can't beat him, can't I just admit defeat?"

Lu Liang, who possesses the memories of his past life, has a deeper understanding of the horror of the Ninth Prince's talent than his elder brother.

But as a warrior, how could he miss such a good opportunity to hone his skills?

What's more, if one wants to get in touch with the Ninth Emperor himself, this is probably the only suitable opportunity.

Their father, Marquis Qi Yang, looked calm and nodded gently: "Yan'er has grown up, let him make the decision on these matters.

"Besides, he has already agreed. If he goes back on his word now, wouldn't he be offending the Ninth Prince?"

When Xia Yao sent the message, Lu Liang had already agreed and set the time and place.

It’s too late to regret now.

Seeing his father speak, Lu Qin could only ask Lu Liang to be careful.

Lu Liang nodded repeatedly, and a warm feeling emerged in his heart.

In his previous life, he was just an orphan. Although he became a third-rank martial saint, he had never felt the warmth of home.

Since his rebirth, the warmth and kindness shown to him by Lu Qin and his father have made him regard Qi Yang Hou Mansion as his own home.

Therefore, he did not feel that Lu Qin's concern was nagging.

the other side.

After getting permission from Li Yan and Lu Liang, Xia Yao spread the news of their battle.

Then there was a huge uproar throughout Daxia.

Finally, the royal family of Daxia also got involved and spread the news throughout Daxia.

The geniuses from the sects all over Da Xia, and even some strong men from outside Da Xia, all got the news and began to rush frantically towards the imperial city.

He didn't want to miss this event.

In the battle between the two geniuses, whoever wins will be the most powerful genius in this world.

By then, it will surely become famous all over the world and leave a deep mark in history.

At the same time, there are also some geniuses who think they are talented and want to participate.

Compete with Li Yan and Lu Liang.

As the news spread more and more widely, geniuses from all over the world continued to arrive.

This is not just a competition between Li Yan and Lu Liang, but also a communication event for many geniuses in the world.

"I didn't expect so many people would come here. Not only the human geniuses, but also high-quality monsters, who actually came to join in the fun."

As time went on, Li Yan's spiritual sense sensed that several high-level monsters had poured into the Great Xia Imperial City.

These monsters used magic tools to isolate their auras, so Tai Xuanzi could only sense that high-level monsters were approaching the Great Xia Imperial City, but it was difficult to detect their specific locations.

For a moment, the whole city was on alert, and the high-level strong men among the Monster Hunting Guards also began to move around, searching everywhere for the whereabouts of the high-level monsters.

Only Li Yan realized their specific location and strength.

This is a three-headed, fourth-rank demon king, now hiding among the crowds of people coming from all over the place.

Since there is no movement, it is inconspicuous.

They came here hiding their aura, obviously not just to watch the battle.

"This is an unexpected gain."

A hint of amusement flashed across Li Yan's eyes.

Most of the high-quality monsters in the world come from the Southern Region.

Most of the high-quality monsters in the Southern Region come from the Tianyao Kingdom.

The last time they fell into the Southern Region, he and Xia Yao were chased by a fifth-grade monster.

However, he was already quite powerful at that time, and the fifth-grade monster was easily killed by him.

That fifth-grade monster came from the Heavenly Demon Kingdom.

The three-headed, fourth-grade monsters that have now entered the Great Xia Imperial City are most likely from the Heavenly Demon Kingdom.

And there is a high probability that they came for him.

The place where Lu Liang agreed to fight him was in Mount Qishan.

Qishan is a high mountain near the imperial city, with rugged rocks and sparse vegetation.

The top of the mountain is a large platform, very flat, like a natural arena. This place has a wide view and is very suitable for Lu Liang to display his strength.

The reason why Lu Liang chose this place to fight is because the environment here can maximize the strength of both of them.

But this place is some distance away from the imperial city after all.

Although there are top three rank masters in the imperial city, they are still out of reach.

Therefore, the purpose of these three fourth-grade monsters should be to kill Li Yan and Lu Liang.

In everyone's opinion, both of them have the potential to enter the upper third level.

The hatred between the demon race and the human race was already extremely deep in ancient times.

So now that they have the opportunity, they certainly won't let it go.

It’s a pity that they didn’t realize that Li Yan was not a genius.

He had already grown up and became a third-grade sorcerer.

And the true strength is even more unfathomable.

Therefore, when these three fourth-grade monsters arrived at the Great Xia Imperial City, their fate was already determined.

"Although there are only three fourth-grade monsters, it's still okay. I'll just take it as interest. When I really come out of the mountains, I'll go and destroy the Heavenly Demon Kingdom."

Li Yan's mind moved, and three green flames the size of soybeans appeared in the bodies of the three monsters.

As they were calmly discussing their plan in the inn, they did not feel any sign at all.

It just suddenly disappeared in mid-air, without even a speck of dust left.

It's as if it had been transferred to some other place out of thin air.

These three monsters were like dust to Li Yan.

With his current strength, he could destroy it with just a breath.

The demise of the three fourth-grade monsters did not cause the slightest ripple in the Great Xia Imperial City.

The Monster Hunting Guards are still searching for traces of monsters in the imperial city.

Only Tai Xuanzi was puzzled. The aura of the high-level monsters in the imperial city was already vague, but now it suddenly disappeared.

But he was not careless, instead he became more vigilant.

He naturally would not have thought that the three-headed monsters had been killed by Li Yan, and only thought that they were hiding deeper.

……

The demon country.

"The three demon kings I sent out are dead. The plan has failed."

The ruler of Tianyao Country, the second-rank demon saint Yue Ze, spoke calmly to his companions beside him.

"How could it be!? They have magical instruments on them to conceal their auras, so how could Tai Xuanzi's divine sense possibly detect them?"

The third-rank demon saint Hongfeng frowned.

He knew best how capable Taixuanzi was.

So he really couldn't believe the news from Yue Ze's mouth.

"Could it be possible that Tai Huangzi is already in charge of the imperial city? If so, the Great Xia royal family really values Xia Yan very much."

"It's just a small competition, but they invited Tai Huangzi to come out."

Yue Ze shook his head and said, "I got the news that Tai Huangzi should be in the Western Regions now, and it is impossible for him to go to the Imperial City."

"There should be a high-quality sorcerer in the Great Xia Imperial City that we don't know about. His spiritual power may even be stronger than Tai Xuanzi's."

"We underestimated the Great Xia Dynasty. They should have known our purpose by now. We can only look for another opportunity."

Hongfeng sighed and said, "What a pity."

The Great Xia Dynasty was furious because the fifth prince died in Huangsangling a few years ago.

He sent troops to the Tianyao Kingdom and killed many demon soldiers and high-level demon kings in that country.

They also captured a large demon city, causing the Tian Yao Kingdom to lose face.

He originally wanted to take this opportunity to kill Xia Yan, the ninth prince of the Great Xia Imperial City, and Lu Liang, the rising martial arts prodigy, in order to deal a heavy blow to the Great Xia Dynasty.

If it succeeds, it will definitely cause heartache to the Great Xia Dynasty.

However, they did not expect that the plan would fail before it even started, and three fourth-grade demon kings were killed.

This is also a huge loss for the Tianyao Kingdom.

Yue Ze's eyes flickered slightly, revealing a sharp look: "It doesn't matter. The Demon God has shown signs of revival in recent years. When the Demon God revives, the Great Xia Dynasty will be nothing but a piece of shit."

A few years ago, several princes of the Great Xia Dynasty were swept away by the aftermath of the magic of the first-class sorcerer of the human race and scattered all over the place.

This has already let the Tianyao Kingdom know that although the Great Xia Dynasty is powerful, there is no First-Rank leader behind it.

As long as the Demon God wakes up, they will be able to conquer Da Xia with the help of his power.

By then, it is not impossible for their demon clan to rule over Da Xia and dominate the Central Region.

Hong Feng smiled and nodded: "Yes, the previous sleep of the demon god gave Da Xia the opportunity to rise."

“When the demon god wakes up, how can Da Xia possibly defeat the first rank?”

“The first-rank warlock of the human race will not stand behind Da Xia.”

"The only thing we need to pay attention to is the crazy first-class martial god in the Western Region. As long as he does not interfere, when the demon god revives, Daxia will be in the pocket of our Tianyao Kingdom!"

Yue Ze sneered, "Don't worry, that Martial God has already reached the end of his rope, but he fought with the warlock of the human race. If he stays in the Western Regions now, he can live a few more years. But if he wants to fight with our Demon God, he will only die faster. Tai Huangzi went to the Western Regions for the matter of that Martial God."

"So when our demon god wakes up, there will be absolutely no one who can stop our Heavenly Demon Nation from destroying Da Xia!"

Hong Feng's eyes flashed with surprise when he heard this, and he said excitedly: "That's great, I just hope that Master Demon God can wake up soon, otherwise if the Ninth Prince and Lu Liang are allowed to grow up, it will be a problem in the future."

Yue Ze nodded.

Although their demon race has a longer lifespan than humans, their realm increases slowly.

Although the human race has a short lifespan, the growth of their realm and strength is also terrifying in their eyes.

A hundred years is just the beginning of adulthood for some nobles in the demon race.

But for the human race, it is even enough for them to enter the upper three levels.

If the demon god awakened too late, the Ninth Prince of Daxia and Lu Liang might have already achieved the upper third grade.

By then, even if he is no match for the Demon God, he can escape far away from Daxia.

It is also a huge hidden danger for the Tianyao Kingdom.

Who knows if they have the potential to advance to the first rank!

Once it reaches the first rank, even the demon gods would have a headache if they encountered it.

……

As time went on, the geniuses in the Great Xia Imperial City were the first to lose their patience.

Seeing that there was still some time before Li Yan and Lu Liang's competition, they simply went to the top of Mount Qishan to make an appointment for a fight.

Under the gaze of many talented peers, he showed off his own style.

The Da Xia government is also happy to see this happen. These geniuses all come from sects within the Da Xia territory, so they are naturally considered Da Xia people.

Daxia also bestowed rewards on the winners and kept records of the rewards.

In his spare time, Li Yan also watched the competition among these geniuses with his divine sense in the Observatory.

Although it is indeed quite good, it is still inferior to Luliang.

Li Yan had already used his divine sense to observe Lu Liang. Although he sensed something unusual, he did not discover any secrets about him.

This is also the reason why he wants to fight with Lu Liang.

In his eyes, Lu Liang always gave him a sense of disharmony.

But he couldn't figure out what the specific reason was that made him feel this abnormality.

I think only when we meet and fight with him formally and unleash Lu Liang's full strength, maybe we can detect some clues.
