Five Immortals Gate

As the sword cultivator retreated, the long sword suddenly shot out from behind, turning into a rainbow and slashing down diagonally towards the "Silver Vein Flower" two hundred feet away. It was about to hit the "Silver Vein Flower" directly. Like cutting off and sweeping away, his movement was so subtle and swift that even Li Yan in the distance was stunned for a moment before he reacted.

This person is clearly a true veteran of the world. He is a perfect actor, and at the same time, he also has his caution engraved into his bones. Even if he doesn't find anything wrong, he still adopts the method of retreating in order to advance.

While protecting himself, he also achieved his goal. If he succeeded, he could pick the herbs. If he failed, he would also detect whether it was a trap. Anyway, he achieved his goal. This method is extremely sophisticated, making it extremely difficult for the ambusher to succeed with one blow.

Sure enough, the sword cultivator's method made it impossible for the two hidden men to continue setting up an ambush. They immediately appeared and pounced on their opponents without hesitation. When one of them just stood up, the dagger in his hand had turned into a green light. In a flash, he had arrived below Changhong Pi Lian. Just when Changhong Pi Lian was about to touch the stem of the "Silver Vein Flower", the green awns came first and blocked Changhong Pi Lian. He just heard There was a crisp sound of "ding", and Changhong Pilian was diagonally opened by the green light.

At the same time, another big man holding a sharp knife rushed towards the sword cultivator hundreds of feet away. The sharp knife in his hand was thrust out like a sword. The sharp knife turned into a gray head with teeth and claws in the air. The giant lizard quickly flicked out its long tongue at the sword cultivator. ????

At a distance of several hundred feet, the gray giant lizard's long tongue seemed to have spanned time and space. It flashed in front of the sword cultivator and took out his right eye, as if trying to pierce the sword cultivator's head in one fell swoop.

All this happened in a flash of lightning. Although Jianxiu's previous actions seemed abnormal, it was just a kind of caution on his part. When he saw the "Silver Vein Flower", he felt a little surprised in his heart, but his usual caution made him He decided to stop.

So he used his spiritual consciousness to explore more carefully. Although he still found nothing unusual, his many years of experience made him feel uneasy, so he made a move to retreat and leave, but he really couldn't let it go no matter what. "Silver Vein Flower".

The sudden appearance of the two monks was not only expected but also unexpected, but this was the last thing he wanted to see.

Now that he was prepared, the attack of the two big men was naturally no longer a sneak attack in the eyes of the swordsman. The moment he saw the big man take action, his originally indifferent expression became serious, and he retreated for a while. The next moment, the blur appeared twenty feet away to the left of the gray giant lizard's attack route. Just when his figure became clear from blur, the Changhong in the distance had also disappeared.

Then, the sword cultivator held a long sword and stood suspended a few feet above the ground. His body was rising and falling, and a pair of fine eyes stared at him with a dark look, and he temporarily stopped attacking.

\u003c/di\u003e

, the two of them were standing up straight.

"It turns out that it's Hu Hai and Ning Ji, two fellow Taoists from the 'Beast Refining Mountain', who are going to ambush Ren."

"Oh, who am I? It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Ren from the 'Blue Blood Sect'. Why did Fellow Daoist Ren say so harshly? The two of us saw the 'Silver Soul Flower' first. When we were about to pick it, we didn't want to be caught by Fellow Daoist. We have to stop him, everything must be done first, right?" The big man who was about to continue attacking the gray giant lizard was temporarily stopped by the hand seal, but he said something else.

Li Yan secretly heard the conversation between the two parties and couldn't help but frown. He knew these two sects.

To be precise, Li Yan, the famous leader of these two sects, knew something about them before coming to the Pure Land Sect. Of course, you need to make some preparations when going to a strange place.

"Beast Refining Mountain" is a sect that is good at refining the souls of various monsters into magic weapons. This is somewhat similar to the Spirit Insect Peak of the Demon Sect, but it is different. The Spirit Insect Peak is to capture spirit beasts. Afterwards, they can be tamed as their own spiritual pets to assist in enhancing their own attack capabilities. However, after capturing the spiritual beasts, the "Beast Refining Mountain" will only keep their souls and refine them into magic weapons to strengthen them. The power of magic weapon.

Li Yan knew that the weapon spirits in magic weapons were usually driven by the souls of powerful demonic beasts, but there were also magic weapons whose weapon spirits were other types of alien species, such as a ten-thousand-year-old stone that had become refined.

But no matter which type it is, generally speaking, a magic weapon can only have one powerful or a group of monster souls of the same type as the weapon spirit, so that the magic weapon's attacks can help to unify and drive as desired.

But "Beast Refining Mountain" pursues a refining method that can incorporate the souls of various monsters into one magic weapon. This approach is abandoned by other sects. It will only make its own magic weapon impure, but "Beast Refining Mountain" "Shan" monks have done this, and they can indeed increase the power of magic weapons a lot, but they are still looked down upon by traditional immortal cultivators and think they are just crooked ways.

"Beast Refining Mountain" went its own way, and through nearly ten thousand years of hard work, it finally became a high-level sect within the jurisdiction of the Pure Land Sect. There was even an old Nascent Soul monster in the sect.

According to the information Li Yan received, although a Yuanying was finally born in "Beast Refining Mountain", and this Yuanying was said to have a golden rod-like magic weapon, which fused the souls of seven top monster beasts in the mortal world, allowing this person to fight Extremely powerful.

It was also because of this magic weapon that he blocked the catastrophe four hundred years ago and was promoted to Nascent Soul.

Four hundred years later, he is still in the early stage of Yuanying and has not made any progress. The reason is that this old monster of Yuanying has never obtained a more powerful monster soul since then, and cannot make the magic weapon of his life improve in the slightest, so he is firmly entrenched. The lock is in the early stage of Nascent Soul.

These are also the pros and cons of the so-called slanted sword method. Although progress is rapid in the early stage, later cultivation is either extremely dangerous or extremely difficult to advance.

For example, the "Beast Refining Mountain" technique focuses on cultivating the natal magic weapon. If the natal magic weapon is strong, the skill will be strong. Damage to the natal magic weapon will even directly cause the monk to die on the spot. Non-traditional monks rely on internal strength and immortality for promotion. The natal magic weapon is just a piece of help for him.

That's the case with Li Yan. He doesn't have a magic weapon of his own, so he can almost do anything in the foundation-building stage. However, if he refines the Gui Yi Water Thorn, it will only make his combat power more fierce, but it won't help him advance much. At most, he may be in the It just helps to resist the catastrophe.

From this, Li Yan guessed that since the two monks were disciples of the "Beast Refining Mountain", the sharp knives and daggers used might contain more than one kind of monster spirit, but there would be many changes in the attack. This kind of Change is also something many monks don't want to encounter.

One moment you may be dealing with heavy attacks from earth monsters, and the next moment suddenly there will be sharp attacks from gold monsters, which completely makes you feel like you have wrong power.

Of course, this kind of attack is just a trick when faced with a truly powerful monk opponent, no matter how varied you are. However, the chance of encountering a powerful monk is still very small. Such monks are extremely difficult to deal with.

As for the "Blue Blood Sect" where the sword cultivator is located, it is also under the jurisdiction of the Pure Land Sect. It is a first-class sect, second only to "Beast Refining Mountain" in power. This sect is an orthodox sword cultivator sect.

Logically speaking, this sect should be attached to Shibuyuan, but this sect looks down upon Shibuyuan. They believe that using Qi to control the sword, turn the sword into silk, and warm the sword in the purple bowels , finally reaching the dual cultivation of life and life, the integration of man and sword, which is the orthodox way of practicing swordsmanship.

However, Shibuyuan has an extra Inner Sword Academy, and the inner swordsman who only practices Jianwan is the strongest support of the sect. This is obviously discrimination against the outer swords, which makes the "Blue Blood Sect" feel disgusted with Shibuyuan. , so I would rather stay within the Pure Land Sect than go under the jurisdiction of Shibuyuan.

As for the area under the jurisdiction of the Sprite Sect, they even scorned it, but this was a group of evil heretics who followed third-rate methods and would not compete with others in an upright manner. The Taoist priests of Taixuan Sect also have sword cultivation, but they are all mixed methods, and they also incorporate the method of expelling talismans and killing ghosts, which is not acceptable to them.

Although the "Blue Blood Sect" gives people a feeling that their eyes are higher than the top, it is true that the disciples of this sect are

\u003c/di\u003e

He has a good fighting ability, and it is rare for monks of the same level to compete with him when he is dedicated to practicing swordsmanship.

It's just that orthodox swordsmanship is extremely difficult and the advancement speed is slow. Therefore, although the overall strength of "Jade Blood Sect" is not weak, there are too few disciples in the sect. The entire sect only has five or six hundred people in total, which is similar to "Beast Refining Mountain". Compared with a large number of thousands of people, this kind of thing is still inferior.

Li Yan didn't expect that he would meet masters from the two sects of the Pure Land Sect not long after he arrived on the second floor, and he did gain experience from the brief encounter between these three people. Both sides had changeable minds and experienced people. A vicious person who has been wandering on the edge of life and death for a long time, he is extremely sensitive to unknown dangers and attacks decisively.

These are by no means comparable to Li Yan today. Li Yan knew that he was able to get here alive because he was cautious and walked on thin ice.

"Heh, do fellow Daoist Hu really just want the 'Silver Soul Flower'? Then just take it." After hearing what the big sword wielder said, Ren Jianxiu from the Bixue Sect just sneered and said.

Although he said this in his mouth, he launched an attack without any warning. He opened his hands and a long sword instantly turned into two swimming fish. He was not afraid at all of the later cultivation of two people building a foundation, and he used one person to build a foundation. The power of the mid-base stage was attacking the two of them brazenly. It was really powerful.

The two big men on the other side had worked hard to set up a trap for an ambush, but in the end they were greeted by a difficult sword cultivator. Moreover, sword cultivators were known for their vengeance. They couldn't help but feel angry. This ambush was considered a complete failure, but What should the two of them be afraid of? Even if one of them is here, they dare to fight with this person, let alone two against one.

The big sword-wielding man named Hu Hai also snorted coldly. He put one hand behind his back and pointed the other hand like a sword. Under the air, the gray giant lizard's body turned into a black light and wrapped around Zheng Zhan. A swimming rainbow, and when the gray giant lizard just swung its body, three five-color rays of light suddenly shot out from its body, going straight to the face of Taoist priest surnamed Ren. If you look closely at these three five-color rays of light, you can see that they are three The five-colored bird, with its beak like a thorn and its claws like hooks, moved very quickly. In a blink of an eye, it was on top of Taoist priest Ren's head.

On the other side of the big man called Ning Ji, the green light dagger suddenly circled, and a small green snake appeared in the low altitude, with a fierce look in its eyes, opened its barbed fangs, stirred its tail, and bit it from one side. The angle towards Fellow Daoist Ren's waist was extremely tricky and swift.

At the same time, Ning Xi raised his left arm, and another yellow light shone at the wrist guard at the front of his naked forearm. A giant bear with shaggy hair appeared in front of him. With a roar that shook the sky, it opened its big hands and faced the attacker. Changhong caught him.

As for Ren Jianxiu, his eyes were sharp and his spiritual energy was like a tide. He did not give in at all when facing the two of them.
