Chapter 113: Immortal Treasure Tower, Guarding the Corpse and Refining the True Form

The bonfire was burning brightly, with people singing and dancing.

Za Humu Qiang and Liang Yue showed amazing martial arts and also won the supreme support of the Erzhu clan.

"Master Lingbao, General Mulan, a toast to both of you!" Erzhu Rong raised the wooden cup.

This tribe may look backward and barbaric, but their overall quality is much higher and every member is an expert in riding and shooting.

Unfortunately, he had no martial arts skills, and his fortunes fluctuated, so he became a soldier in the Six Garrisons.

Hua Mulan felt a little disgusted with this group of barbarians, but for Liang Yue's sake, she didn't say anything in the end.

As they were drinking, Erzhu Rong felt a little dissatisfied.

"Master Lingbao, I just woke up not long ago and I don't have the strength. If we fight again, it won't be the same as before."

"Really? Compare again."

Liang Yue stood up.

"Come!!" Erzhu Rong took off his coat.

The name Erzhu Rong sounds like this person is very fat; but in fact, he is a tall and handsome man.

But his character is rather rough.

What happened between the two attracted the attention of the surrounding Hu people.

Everyone came over to watch.

"Ready?"

Erzhu Rong clenched his right fist and rushed over without any moves.

Liang Yue stood still.

boom!
He caught Erzhu Rong's fist with his right hand and easily pulled it to the side.

Erzhu Rong staggered and fell to the ground.

"Come again!"

After two or three times, he was finally convinced.

"What great martial arts!" Erzhu Rong lay on the ground, gasping for breath.

"Want to learn? I'll teach you."

Upon hearing this, Erzhu Rong climbed up the pole and stood up to bow.

Liang Yue stopped him and said with a smile: "I don't accept disciples."

"Then... meet you, big brother!"

"Brother? Call me whatever you want."

Liang Yue ignored Erzhu Rong's behavior of taking advantage of the situation.

The Hu Lu were poor, but that didn't mean they were honest. In the harsh living environment in the north, if they didn't have a little bit of smartness, they would have died eight hundred times already.

After that, Erzhu Rong called him "big brother" all the time.

"Where are you from, brother?"

"Brother is a man from heaven."

Erzhu Rong waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter if you are in heaven or on earth. My brother is not from Luoyang. People from Luoyang are the worst."

Liang Yue held down Hua Mulan who was about to lose her temper and said with a smile: "That won't be the case."

"I will definitely go to Luoyang in the future."

Taking advantage of the alcohol, Erzhu Rong talked nonsense.

Liang Yue put his arm around Erzhu Rong's shoulder and suddenly said:

"Brother, I want to remind you something. Next time someone asks you to discuss something, remember to put on your helmet first."

"Hmm..." Erzhu Rong was already unconscious, and the words just passed by his ears but were not remembered in his heart.

The next day, Liang Yue granted Erzhu Rong the Zhenyu Mingwang Gong, which was a combination of the Vajra Indestructible Gong and the Purple Dragon Gong. It was a version without any mental skills and was a pure method of body training.

Plus a demon blood pill made from Fang Xiang’s blood, and an innate pill.

"Thank you, brother!"

Erzhu Rong took it back to practice as if it were a treasure.

"Brother Lingbao, how long will we have to stay?" Hua Mulan asked.

"Wait a few more days, and practice San Shou and Eight Animals Kung Fu first."

Liang Yue planned to go down the well to explore, perhaps he could find some good treasure.

night.

The moon is bright in the sky, and the stars are arrayed.

The empty north seems particularly desolate, while the mountains in the south are undulating and the atmosphere is generally eerie.

Liang Yue sat cross-legged, his soul left his body, and his spirit left holding the Mountain Ghost Jade Pendant.

A translucent figure was floating in the well in the center of the village. The moonlight penetrated the dark green ghost body, making it look particularly strange.

There were fat grass carps in the well, and the soul leaped into the water.

It goes straight into the ground for dozens of feet.

Most of the soil was dark red, as if it had been soaked in some kind of blood. From Liang Yue's perception, it was indeed land contaminated by demon blood.

The demon blood is relatively thin and basically has no practical value. If you have not lived here for twenty years, or if your ancestors have lived here for generations, you will hardly notice any changes.

What really concerns Liang Yue is what happens underground.

Perhaps a great demon really died here.

Keep going forward for a thousand feet.

Finally, the soul sensed a huge corpse buried in the soil.

It is about twenty feet tall, in human shape, with a dog-like head and rotten bones.

Liang Yue came to the center of the skull's eyebrows and found a fist-sized jade stone. The jade was white jade with extremely high purity and was translucent. There was a pure gold pill inside.

There are faint dog-shaped red lines inside the jade.

"What kind of pill is this?... There is also a dog head, a dog-headed person..." Liang Yue made a rough analysis.

Dog-headed people... He thought of the dog-headed country in history.

The Classic of Mountains and Seas says: In the country of Quanfeng, the people have dog heads and human bodies.

The ancient Quanrong and their ilk might actually be demons.

Liang Yue didn't know what the white jade was, but he still put it in his pocket.

"It is said that the Heavenly Eye can see through everything. Perhaps after refining the Heavenly Eye, one should know what it is."

Liang Yue's intuition told him that something that had not decayed for who knows how many years must be a treasure.

Liang Yue stayed here for another two days.

"Mulan, you want the credit, right?"

Outside, Liang Yue was eating roasted lamb leg and said to Hua Mulan beside him.

"Yes, if you don't make any contribution, you may be punished by the general."

"That's easy. Let Erzhu Rong help you get a few heads."

"That mixed-race Hu? Can he do it?" Mulan couldn't believe it.

"of course."

Liang Yue sent for Erzhu Rong.

"Brother, what's the matter?"

After Erzhu Rong took the elixir, his whole body turned red, his hair was disheveled, and he looked like a human-shaped beast.

"You have already mastered the technique, it's time to test your results. Lead your tribe to fight the Rouran and bring back the head of at least one thousand-household general."

Erzhu Rong did not have time to think and said, "Two days at most."

In the afternoon, Erzhu Rong set off with 500 troops.

Liang Yue continued to stay in the Erzhu Rong clan's territory and taught Hua Mulan martial arts.

Perhaps because she felt time was running out, Hua Mulan immersed herself in martial arts all day long.

This day, under the tree.

The north wind is howling and the leaves are falling.

Mulan, who was fighting against Liang Yue, suddenly had an idea.

Punch out.

boom!
Liang Yue dodged, but the tree behind him, which was as thick as a bowl, was broken in half by Hua Mulan's punch.

Realize the true meaning and be promoted to Grandmaster. "Is this the Grandmaster?" Hua Mulan stared at her fist in a daze.

"That's right." Liang Yue said with a smile, and then took out three innate pills.

"When you have mastered the true meaning, you can take the elixir to break through the innate state."

"Ah."

For some reason, Mulan felt a little depressed.

The sound of horse hooves could be heard not far away.

It turned out that it was Erzhu Rong who came back with the head.

"It's time to go back to Wuchuan." Liang Yue said.

"Ah."

The two men carried the head and set out for Wuchuan City.

"Brother, can we see each other again in the future?"

Erzhu Rong walked the two men for more than ten miles and shouted loudly.

"Wait until you become famous all over the world!" Liang Yue's voice came from afar.

"Famous all over the world?" Erzhu Rong said with a smile, "Brother, I will definitely surpass you in the future and defeat you with my own hands."

Wuchuan City.

The city is tall and heavily guarded.

Hua Mulan entered the city using the seal she carried with her.

"Brother Lingbao, I'm sorry to leave you now. Please wait for a moment." Hua Mulan apologized to Liang Yue and then rode away.

Liang Yue shook his head and followed the sign left by Li Hu.

In a private house, Li Hu found Liang Yue in the yard.

"Master!"

In just five days, Li Hu had become the leader of the rangers in this place where fists were everything.

"Li Hu, you will first gain experience in the north. You will be a nail among the barbarians in the future. Keep a close eye on their movements at all times. By the way, collect clues about ancient ruins for me."

Li Hu nodded and agreed, saying, "Okay, I will stay here."

The Li family has strange personalities and usually will not change once they make up their mind about something.

Let Li Hongwen guard the grave and stay still for the rest of his life.

Li Hu has been active since he was a child, with a fire in his blood and a desire to win. The first time he came here, he fell in love with this place that relies purely on fists.

Liang Yue produced a bottle of Xiantian Dan and a piece of yellow paper from the jade pendant, with densely packed materials written on it.

"This is a method to suppress the Li family curse. When you have a child in the future, take this pill once a year before the age of ten, and your bloodline will be suppressed for life. In the distant future, Master will surely be able to lift the Li family curse."

This is the best option at present, which is to suppress the bloodline of the Li family without affecting their strength.

Perhaps in the distant future, when his cultivation level improves, he will be able to resolve the fate of the Li family's short-lived species.

Li Hu solemnly accepted the prescription.

Looking at Liang Yue's leaving back, I felt extremely lost.

"Master, great-grandfather...see you later."

As the sun sets, people are far away.

Liang Yue walked across the vast land under the sunset glow.

This time the military deployment to the north has been successful. Now it is time to hide in a tower to guard the body and live forever in seclusion.

Rumble...

Behind him came the sound of cavalry hooves.

"Brother Lingbao, stop!"

Mulan was seen wearing a silver helmet and silver armor, looking heroic.

"Brother Lingbao, why didn't you wait for me?" Hua Mulan asked in a reproachful tone, "Where are you going now?"

"Wandering around, the world is my home. Mulan, please don't stand in my way."

"Stay here. I will ask the general to appoint you as a general. In time, you will become a pillar of support."

Mulan's eyes are full of meaning.

After spending many days together, she was not a little white rabbit like Zhu Yingtai. From Liang Yue's occasional avoidance behavior, she knew that the other party had already known her true identity.

"No, that's not my ambition."

"What do you want?" Hua Mulan was puzzled.

"Nothing."

Liang Yue heard the familiar question again and couldn't help but smile knowingly.

Countless people have asked this question, because they know that emperors' ambitions, talented men and beautiful women will eventually turn to dust.

Everything is just false.

After saying that, Liang Yue rode away.

Mulan was somewhat unwilling. As a girl from the north, she dared to love and hate.

The cavalry surrounded Liang Yue from all sides.

Facing Liang Yue's gaze, Hua Mulan rode forward, took off the jewelry on her chest and threw it to Liang Yue.

"Go."

"gone."

Liang Yue held the still slightly warm Tiger Eye Stone in his hand and rode away on his horse.

"Lingbao, when I become the general of the country, I will definitely go south to capture you." Mulan talked to herself while looking at Liang Yue's back.

Rush all the way.

Sunset over mountains and rivers, lonely smoke in the desert.

There is no such thing as a banquet that lasts forever.

The prosperity of the past has finally become a thing of the past.

Everything has an end, nothing lasts forever.

Jiankang City.

Liang Yue lived in seclusion in the imperial palace.

We went out at night to cast spells to reinforce the tower base, and the construction progress was extremely fast.

the following year.

The imperial palace garden and a 27-meter-high tower were built.

The golden plate on the top of the tower shines brightly in the sun, illuminating the clouds

A gilded bronze mirror is hung on the tower. The mirror shines so brightly that the light can be smelled for more than ten miles away.
