After another day of driving, the convoy arrived at Qingjiaofu City, a border town in the center of the sea.

The city walls of Fucheng are all made of specially made blue bricks. The city is tens of feet high and looks majestic and majestic.

The city gate is full of people, and it is extremely lively. To enter the city gate, you need to pay two pieces of low-grade spirit stones. Fights are not allowed after entering the city, otherwise people from the city lord's mansion will intervene. a kind of guarantee.

The Lan family is one of the three major families in the Qingjiao Mansion and the City Lord's Mansion. Naturally, there is no need to pay the entrance fee when entering the city.

"Why is the city wall of Qingjiao Prefecture built so high?" Shi Jing asked while sitting in Lanzi's carriage looking at the city wall outside the window.

Lanzi shook the teacup a few times with his slender hand and replied with a smile: "Because it is to resist the beast tide."

"Resist the tide of beasts? Will there still be monsters coming here?" Shi Jing looked at Lanzi in surprise.

Lanzi nodded: "Because Qingjiao City is adjacent to the Sanwan Mountains under the jurisdiction of the Demon City, the monsters in the mountains multiply and cause the number to exceed the standard, so every ten years or so, there will be high-level monsters who will organize beast hordes to attack human monks. The city, one is for deterrence, and the other is to get rid of the low-level monsters that have multiplied too much for them."

"The monsters are so rampant in the sea area of ​​the monster city?" Shi Jing frowned. There is no such thing as a separate capital city for monsters in the Eastern Continent. Most of the high-level monsters hide in secret places for cultivation.If there are high-level monsters haunting human cities, they will be strangled and killed by high-level monks from various sects in various countries.

Lanzi glanced at the scene in surprise, and after thinking for a while, he frowned, "Brother Shi looks like there are fewer monsters in the Eastern Continent, right? On the contrary, the monsters in our demon capital sea area are more powerful. You'll know it after a while."

"High-level monsters in the Eastern Continent are still rare. As soon as they appear, they will attract the attention of many powerful people, and they all want to kill them to obtain refining materials such as demon pills and skin bones." Shi Jing nodded and said with a smile. With such rampant monsters in the sea area, maybe it is more suitable for Mingyan to practice.

A trace of yearning flashed in Lanzi's eyes, and he said with a helpless wry smile: "The beast tide here is a headache for our families. Every ten years, the disciples in the family will be lost countless because of it, and when the time comes, the elders of the Keqing and the senior officials of the clan will be killed." We must work together to kill the defensive monsters."

"There was a big beast swarm six years ago. At that time, I was only 21 years old. I was on the tenth floor of the Qi refining period. I witnessed the scene of corpses and devastation. And I almost died in that swarm of beasts. Among them, it is still fresh in my memory." Lanzi glanced at the city wall that was about to be missed and sighed.

There was also a look of solemnity in Shi Jing's eyes. It turned out that the Lan family tried their best to win him over as a guest elder and there was still such a thing to do, but it was considered a fair deal. As for the resources provided by the Lan family, he accepted them all without any psychological burden. .

"Four years before the next beast swarm?" Shi Jing raised his teacup and took a sip and asked.

"According to the past rules, it's about the same. At that time, it may be troublesome for Brother Shi to make a move together." Lanzi nodded and smiled.

Shi Jing stared at the teacup in his hand, pondered for a moment and said, "Since he is already the elder Keqing of the Lan family, it is of course obligatory to act."

"Brother Shi is really refreshing." Lanzi said with a loud laugh.

He always thought that Shi Jing was older than him, and in order to get closer, he always called Shi Jing Brother Shi. After all, he was extremely talented from the 27th stage to the early stage of foundation establishment. He should be classified as a monk over 30 years old.

Shi Jing doesn't want to explain the age issue, he doesn't want to deliberately show off that he is only 20 years old, it would be better if others misunderstand, he has always pursued a low-key behavior.

After arriving at the Lan family, Shi Jing met the head of the Lan family and several elders.

The Patriarch of the Lan family is about 50 years old, he has a cultivation base in the middle stage of foundation establishment, and he has a kind face. Shi Jing judges that this person should be a smiling tiger.

Among the elders, eight are members of the Lan family, and the highest cultivation level is a middle-aged beautiful woman who is in the Dzogchen foundation establishment period; there are six guest ministers, and the cultivation bases are basically in the middle and late foundation establishment period; , although the cultivation bases are only in the early and middle stages of foundation establishment, they are alchemists and crafting masters respectively, so they are highly valued in the Lan family.

"Welcome fellow daoist Shi to join the Lan family." Patriarch Lan Yuan said to Shi Jing with a smile.

Shi Jing replied with a faint smile, "The Patriarch is being polite."

Seeing that Shi Jing was so young, and his superficial cultivation was only at the tenth level of the Qi refining stage, there was a white-haired elder Ke Qing who was in the early stage of foundation establishment, and he snorted coldly: "It's not that this elder Shi's cultivation is Is it in the middle stage of foundation establishment? Why do I only look at the tenth floor of the Qi refining stage? Could it be that my eyes are blurred."

A look of displeasure appeared on Lanzi's face, this old thing belonged to his fourth uncle's gang, and Shi Jing was the elder Keqing invited by him, isn't this a slap in the face of their eldest family?

Shi Jing had seen too many family fights in the Shi family, and he didn't bother to pay attention to these tricks that didn't come to the fore. He directly raised his eyebrows at Li Huo on his shoulder.

"Chichi!" There were several coercive beast sounds in the hall, pressing down on the old man.

"Pfft!" The old man was so suppressed by the voice that he couldn't resist spewing out a mouthful of blood.

And everyone saw the little red beast with red hair on Shi Jing's shoulder standing upside down, looking at Elder Yu with a cold light in his small eyes.

"You actually have a spiritual pet in the middle stage of the Demon Mansion." Elder Yu said while rubbing his chest and looking at Shi Jing, the fear in his eyes was undoubtedly revealed.

Shi Jing was originally a kind person, but he was too lazy to pay attention to those who despised provocations, and directly ignored Elder Yu's questioning.He was invited by Lanzi, even if he didn't agree with him, others would take the initiative to brand him as Lanzi's gang, so why should he show good looks to these people.

A gleam flashed in Lan Yuan's eyes, and he smiled more sincerely when facing Shi Jing, "Elder Shi always wants to choose a room in the residence full of aura in the Lan family to practice, or he wants to go to the mountains with a good aura in the Lan family to open it up by himself." Where is the cave?"

"Go to Lingshan and open up your own cave, I don't like excitement very much." Shi Jing replied with a light smile.

"Xue'er, take Elder Shi to open a cave in Lingshan." Lan Yuan turned his head and said to a beautiful woman in blue.

Lan Xue smiled and nodded: "Yes, Patriarch, don't worry." Then she showed a kind smile to Shi Jing and said, "Elder Shi, please follow me."

"That would be troublesome."

After Shi Jing bid farewell to several people, he followed Lan Xue and left the hall of the Lan family.

After a while, there were only three people left in the hall, and Lan Yuan said to Lan Zi: "Zi'er, did you find anything wrong with this Elder Shi after contacting him?"

"According to the replies sent by the spies and the temptations in my conversation with him, he is undoubtedly from the Eastern Continent, and his strength is not as simple as he appears. He claims that his cultivation is in the middle stage of foundation establishment, and after recovering from his injuries He can break through to the late stage, and his spiritual pet is worth our efforts." Lanzi replied cautiously.

"This person has been getting along all the way, and his heart is indifferent. As long as it doesn't touch privacy, it is beneficial to our department. Most of the elders of Ke Qing are members of the fourth and his family. Now it is more beneficial for us to join the elders. Balance the forces in the clan." The third elder also said aloud.

Lan Yuan nodded: "Then let's do this first, good hospitality, all the resources that should be sent to him in advance."

"Don't worry, Dad, I know what to do." Lanzi replied.

Under Lan Xue's leadership, Shi Jing and the others went to the three Lan family's spiritual mountains, and finally he opened a cave in a relatively remote mountain range, and it was far away from the Fucheng.

During the flight, the woman named Lan Xue also talked with him along the way, introducing many things about Fucheng and the Lan family.

one year later.

While he was practicing with his eyes closed, Jing suddenly heard Mingyan's sound transmission, his opened eyes were filled with a soft light, and then he went to the Lan's house and explained to Lanzi, then Yujian flew towards the Sawan Mountains.

Half a month later, Shi Jing flew to the Sawan Mountains, and entered the central area of ​​the outer circle all the way forward, opening a cave by a deep waterfall.

He put Mingyan, which was still wrapped in black pupae, into the opened hole, and he arranged a large formation outside, and sat in the formation to protect Mingyan.

He was both looking forward to it and a little nervous. He didn't know what Mingyan would look like after his transformation, and he had exposed some emotional matters before. How they should get along with each other after that made the time waiting outside constantly tangled.

And Mingyan didn't take shape immediately, the black chrysalis that wrapped him slowly peeled off and became transparent, flickering and jumping non-stop, and there was a naked baby in the transparent chrysalis, As time goes by, the baby grows in the chrysalis, and the transparent chrysalis swells and grows.

Shi Jing's heart also settled down, and he practiced with his eyes closed and sat quietly in the formation to protect him.

Another year passed, and the area near the inner circle of the Sawan Mountains shone with golden light, and clusters of colorful clouds gathered above the waterfall.A few days later, countless golden lightning bolts descended from the colorful clouds and struck a cave deep in the waterfall.

Shi Jing stood on a high mountain far away from the cave and looked down steadily.Three days ago, he received a voice transmission from Mingyan asking him to stay away from the cave temporarily.

The Nether family is both noble and mysterious, so in the process of transformation, seven-colored clouds and golden thunders will descend to shape their bodies, and they must withstand seventy-seven, fourty-nine days of thunder and thunder before they can transform from beasts into human forms.

There was firmness in Shi Jing's eyes. He believed in Ming Yan's ability, so he took a deep breath, and released Lie Huo and Bai Ran to form a triangle in this space to prevent foreign enemies from invading.

In a wooden house surrounded by a sea of ​​flowers in the eastern depths of the Sawan Mountains, a stunning woman frowned slightly, and whispered to the sky that was suddenly illuminated by colorful colors: "What kind of monster is this? Its grandeur is truly unique, but it is a pity that I have reached a critical juncture in retreat, otherwise I have to go out to see it."

In a cave in the south of the mountain range, a red-faced man changed his complexion countless times before turning into a beam of red light and shooting towards the colorful clouds.

At the same time, in a deep pool in the west of the mountain range, a giant ice thorn snake king turned its icy snake eyes a few times. He jumped out of the water and transformed into a beautiful man in ice blue clothes with a soft face, and finally turned into a The blue light flew towards the direction of the colorful clouds.

And in the north of the mountain range, a silver-white wolf king roared a few times, and transformed into a cold and beautiful woman in silver clothes, stepping on the clouds and flying towards the direction of the colorful clouds and the golden thunder flashing.

The three demons gathered not far from the colorful clouds at about the same time.

"What kind of monster is this in your opinion? I've never seen such a fight before." The red-faced man asked out of mouth.

The handsome man in the ice blue costume showed a trace of fear in his eyes, and his voice was cold, "It should be a higher race in the monster race. He is transforming at this time. Because of Jieyun, we can't explore his body." .”

"The Sawan mountain range has always been under the control of our four kings. I haven't heard that there are monsters that want to transform into forms. Could it be from outside?" The beautiful woman in silver clothes looked not far away suspiciously and said.

"There are still human monks guarding it. This demon cultivator is definitely not from our Sanwan Mountains." The red-faced man glanced at the scene and said.

"Don't worry about that for now, we'll find out what's going on when he changes form and we'll visit." The man in blue said coldly.

After 49 days, the number of golden thunders falling from the sky gradually decreased, and finally disappeared into the sky with the colorful clouds.

Before that, Shi Jing had already felt that three powerful demon consciousnesses had locked him in. If the other party didn't show up, he would have to wait for Mingyan to transform into form, so he wasn't nervous.

Seeing that the robbery cloud had dissipated at this moment, a sense of tension rose in his heart.

"Hoo!" Hearing Mingyan's sound transmission, he didn't want to wait any longer, and turned into a ray of white light and shot into the cave that had been smashed to the point of being scrapped.

As soon as he entered the depths of the cave, he saw a tall and straight man in red standing with his back. He looked at the red shadow fixedly and didn't know what to do. After thinking about it, he tried to call out in a gentle voice: "Ming Yan?"

Suddenly, the man turned around, Shi Jing's eyes showed surprise, and he stared blankly at the man in front of him.

Dressed in red, flamboyant, with fluttering ink hair, exquisite facial features, phoenix eyes lightly lifted, five points similar to meditation, but completely different temperament.

The man is so handsome, a red lightning mark on his forehead looks a little flirtatious, but there is no trace of femininity, on the contrary, the whole person exudes a strong masculine and mature charm, and the irresistible kingly aura makes this man mysterious and noble .

Seeing the astonishment in Shi Jing's eyes, Ming Yan curled up his lips in a satisfied arc. He walked up to Shi Jing who was staring blankly at him, and licked Shi Jing's earlobe with a mature and charming voice.

"Shi Jing, are you satisfied with my appearance?"
