I run a cram school in the realm of self-cultivation

In the prosperous era more than 1000 years ago, heroes gathered, and geniuses with special physiques swarmed out.

That was the most magnificent era in the cultivation world, but also the cruelest era.Countless Tianjiao died on the road of seeking the Tao, and became the stepping stones of other Tianjiao, watching them surpass themselves step by step and soar upward.No matter how hard they chased, they couldn't catch up with the top group of Tianjiao, and could only watch helplessly as the distance between them grew farther and farther.

People like Xie Lingtai belong to the top group.

In addition, Fang He didn't know much about the prosperous era more than 1000 years ago.With a slight turn of his spiritual consciousness, it landed on the leaf at his waist. At this moment, he could not feel Xie Lingtai's breath from the leaf.

Xie Lingtai could not be contacted at all.

Fang He lifted his eyelids, and his gaze fell on Wu Shengtian indistinctly.He obviously also heard the key words in Ji Zhao's mouth, and his expression changed suddenly.This change of expression was noticed by Ji Zhao, he made a slight noise, his voice became extraordinarily soft, his whole face got closer, and he asked Wu Shengtian:

"What did you seem to know from my words just now?"

Ji Zhao's insight is extremely astonishing, and some clues can be observed from the change of Wu Shengtian's expression. He moved closer and said slowly:

"You are very calm now, it seems that you have something to rely on."

From the depths of his throat, Ji Zhao softly uttered "Huh?" The tone was extremely lazy, and it made people's heart tingle.

Wu Shengtian straightened his back, and he said: "The villain Wu Shengtian, although he is not a fortune teller, but he knows a little bit about divination techniques, you might as well report your name, and the villain will give you a divination."

Ji Zhao smiled and said, "Is there anything special about your hexagram?"

Wu Shengtian: "My hexagram, as long as I calculate it, it must be right."

Wu Shengtian only said this sentence, and then stopped talking. He just knelt there with a firm face, and at first glance, it looked like this.

Standing behind Ji Zhao, Fang He couldn't see the expression on his face, but Fang He could feel from his tone of voice that he was more interested in Wu Shengtian's words.

Ji Zhao: "My surname is Ji, and my first name is Zhao, but fellow Taoists, please make a calculation."

As he spoke, he gently raised his hand.Wu Shengtian's figure involuntarily stood up following the movements of Ji Zhao's arms, and sat down on a chair behind him.

Fang He heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Wu Shengtian, and the nerves on his face were no longer tense. He bowed to Ji Zhao from a distance, and said: "Life is precious, I can't deduce anything, but through The young master's surname has peeked into some secrets."

Ji Zhao: "What about fellow Taoist?"

Wu Shengtian said: "In the next few days, a major event will happen in Nine Nights City, when hundreds of Tianjiao will gather here."

When he said this, Wu Shengtian's eyes fell on Ji Zhao, and the expression on his face was unpredictable.He put a hook in his words, if he was an ordinary person, he would definitely break the casserole and ask to the end. Anything that could be related to hundreds of Tianjiao would definitely be a big event that caused a sensation in the entire third heaven.

Unfortunately, Ji Zhao didn't intend to ask.After hearing Wu Shengtian's answer, he didn't even lose his breath, he just slightly raised his eyebrows and said, "That's all, it's really boring."

Ji Zhao stood up, took two steps outside, suddenly thought of something, and said to Fang He: "Xiao Fang, go, reward him with some spirit crystals, so that the poor boy can't help but see the elixir I just made." Stop doing it."

Fang He responded, and he walked in front of Wu Shengtian.Until this time, he was able to raise his head and see the whole picture of Wu Shengtian.

Wu Shengtian was a very rough man, with thick stubble all over his face, covering the lower half of his face.Seeing Fang He walking towards him at this moment, there was vigilance in his eyes.In front of him, Fang He slowly took out three spirit crystals and placed them in front of him, then raised his voice slightly and said:

"Your bounty."

The expression on Wu Shengtian's face relaxed, he stretched out his hand to take the spirit crystal, waved to him and said, "Thank you."

Compared with Jingui and Ji Zhao, his attitude towards Fang He is much more casual.After all, Fang He is the one with the worst cultivation among their master and servant.

Fang He reluctantly pulled his eyes away from the spirit crystal, turned around, and followed Ji Zhao's pace.

From the conversation just now, Fang He could clearly feel that Wu Shengtian had never heard of the name Ji Zhao.This shows that Ji Zhao's reputation in the prosperous age is not obvious.This was actually within Fang He's expectation.

A pharmacist, no matter how powerful he is, how powerful can he be?

Fang He followed Ji Zhao step by step, and the corner of his eye fell on Ji Zhao's face from time to time, guessing his mood.

Ji Zhao was completely unaffected by what Wu Shengtian said just now.He was still strolling leisurely, with a relaxed expression on his face, but Jingui, who was at the side, had the word "sorrow" engraved in his eyebrows and eyes.

Finally, Jingui couldn't bear it any longer. He stepped forward and whispered in Ji Zhao's ear, "My lord, no matter what the thief said just now is true or not, the Nine Nights City is not peaceful after all. Let's go back early, you are not in good health." Well, let's not get involved in this kind of thing."

As he said that, an extra piece of clothing appeared in Jingui's hand. He took a step forward and put it on Ji Zhao's body.At this time, the sun was setting to the west, the twilight was closing in, and the surrounding wind was blowing a little bit stronger. With this thick coat on, Ji Zhao became much warmer.

He coughed lightly, his pale face flushed a lot, at this moment, he finally said: "Well then, let's go."

As soon as these words came out, Jingui's complexion improved a lot.He gave Fang He a look with his eyebrows, and Fang He immediately understood, and firmly supported Ji Zhao's other side with his other hand.

The three of them went back, and after helping Ji Zhao to the house, Fang He walked back together with Jingui.

Although Jin Gui's strength is strong, he can beat the top [-] mid-level Tianjiao, but his temperament is quite honest, simple and honest, and he has no heart.After walking to the door, he greeted Fang He and walked into the next room.

Fang He opened his door and walked in.

He stepped up to the table, sat down, and poured himself a cup of tea.After hearing the sound of water hitting the teacup, he calmed down.The dense tea mist rose upwards, covering the expression on Fang He's face.

The smile on Fang He's face faded, and even his brows and eyes became a little more dignified.

In fact, since a monk like Jingui is a servant, he must have no reputation in the cultivation world. In fact, it is true.However, it was the role of such a servant servant who defeated the third heaven and the top three thousand mid-level Tianjiao after 1000 years.

This is especially ridiculous and absurd, but it has to be admitted that it is true.

Cultivators like Jingui abounded in the Third Heaven 1000 years ago.If they were able to be born 1000 years later, perhaps they would become the dazzling new stars in the third heaven.

It's really a trick of good fortune.

But this is the only way to show how terrifying the third heaven is now.With Wu Shengtian's strength, he can't fight against ordinary monks, so how terrifying is the strength of those who are higher than ordinary monks, such as those low-level, middle-level, and high-level geniuses.

Fang He suspected that they might not be able to survive a move from these Tianjiao's hands.

But at the same time, with crisis comes opportunity.

The prosperous age more than 1000 years ago is different from the current third heaven. Let alone the elixir that Ji Zhao said was "available in all shops", in the third heaven 1000 years later, It's hard to see.Otherwise, Wu Shengtian wouldn't take the risk and expose himself by grabbing a elixir.

In addition, Fang He gained a lot of insight after following Ji Zhao around the Nine Nights City all day long.He saw that the stalls on both sides of the street were displaying some good medicinal materials, or some extraordinary utensils, etc., which really dazzled people.

This is still the streets.If you go to places like the auction house, you may see many enviable things.

These are all coveted by them.

Fang He drank the tea in his hand, blew out the candles on the table, walked straight to the bed, and sat cross-legged.

He was not in a hurry to fall asleep, but instead recalled the map of Nine Nights City.Today, Ji Zhao took him to walk around the Nine Nights City, and a rough map has been drawn in his mind.

Unlike Fang He and the others, Wu Shengtian didn't know anything about the history of Third Heaven.He was born on the soil of the third heaven, so naturally he knew more than Fang He.

Therefore, Fang He didn't have any doubts about what he said that a major event would happen in Nine Nights City, and hundreds of Tianjiao gathered here.

He held his breath, closed his eyes, and started to activate the spiritual power in his body. The pores all over his body opened and closed, trying to introduce the surrounding spiritual power into his body with all his strength.

In such a world, he must seize all the time to break through himself.

For the next few days, Ji Zhao didn't go out, and stayed in his room for alchemy.As his servants, Fang He and Jingui naturally had nothing to do.

At this moment, the sun was shining fiercely, passing through the eaves and the well-defined leaves, and pouring on Fang He and Jingui. Smelling the strong smell of medicine, Jingui felt a little itchy for a moment. He said to Fang He:

"Come on, let's make gestures. According to the old rules, I will suppress my cultivation and fight with you."

Jingui's tone was very familiar, which made Fang He's heart skip a beat. He glanced at Ji Zhao's house in embarrassment, and said in a low voice, "This is not good, what if the young master finds us?"

Jingui laughed loudly, he put his arms around Fang He's shoulders, and pulled him to an open place, and said as he walked, "You are still so timid, didn't you say before, my lord, that he is practicing When taking medicine, we can do whatever we want, as long as, ah, don't bother him."

After walking to an open place, Jin Gui put his arms down and said, "Quickly, take out your sword, and let me see if your sword has improved over the past few months."

Fang He silently responded.He touched the sword pinned to his waist, but he didn't expect that the original "Xiao Fang" was also the one who used the sword.Moreover, it has been a few months since the last sword trial, and no matter whether it is progressing or regressing, it can find a reason.

Thinking of this, Fang He slowly drew the sword in his hand.

His current sword was specially made for him by Tao Lele before the intermediate assessment.As the sword moved, there was a clear sound of piercing through the air.As soon as the sword was unsheathed, Jingui's eyes lit up and said:

"Xiao Fang, your sword is not bad. If that's the case, then I'm here!"

After speaking, Jingui's voice suddenly raised, and the fluctuation of his spiritual power began to weaken. In the end, Fang He could not feel the sense of coercion from him.He raised his eyebrows in surprise, and found that what Jingui said about lowering his cultivation was really lowering.

He suppressed his cultivation to the ninth level of Jindan.

Although the gap between the ninth level of Jindan and the first level of Yuanying is not very big, there is still a level of cultivation.Compared with Fang He at the ninth level of Jindan, it is obvious that Jingui is full of confidence in his own strength.

Naturally, Fang He would not be so stupid as to let the other party mention that he was equal to him to confront him.His gaze fell firmly on Jingui's body, and then he raised his sword swiftly.The sword shone brightly under the light.

Fang He's ultimate sword power attacked Jingui.

The power of the sword is overwhelming, like surging waves, facing it is like facing a towering snow mountain, it is extremely cold and unable to move.This sword is the strongest sword that Fang He can make without hurting his body.

But this sword was blocked by a pair of big palms.

The big palm is thick and smooth, and it is covered with calluses. At first glance, it looks like the traces left over from the rough work that is used to it in daily life.But it was such a pair of ordinary, ordinary-looking palms that blocked Fang He's strongest sword.

Fang He looked at everything in front of him in surprise, only to see Jingui gently closed his palms, and just like that, the monstrous sword was easily contained in the center of his palms.The expression on Jingui's face didn't even change at all, it was normal, but his brows were furrowed, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

With such an expression, could it be that his swordsmanship is worse than the previous "Xiao Fang"?Otherwise, why did the other party have such a sad and hateful expression.

Fang He's heart tightened, he firmly grasped the sword in his hand, his mind was running quickly, trying to analyze one, two, three, four from Jingui's face.Unexpectedly, Jingui nodded and said:

"Xiao Fang, your talent in swordsmanship is really beyond my imagination. It's just that you have only been exposed to swordsmanship for a short time, and there are still some omissions. Let me explain to you."

Fang He nodded, feeling a little novel in his heart for a while.Usually, he would give lectures to others, but now, it was his turn to listen to others.He raised his gaze slightly, and his eyes fell firmly on Jingui's body.

Although Jingui showed his fists and kicks during the fight with Fang He, in fact, he can also sword.Otherwise, it would be impossible for Fang He to recognize it as a good sword at the first sight when he took out the sword.

Only those who know the sword can know the sword.

Jingui's swordsmanship is different from Fang He's.His swordsmanship is open and closed.When the sword body shakes, there is a domineering arrogance that dominates the world.Instead of using a sword, he seemed to be using a knife.

As soon as he swung his sword, a lot of dust fell from the surrounding houses, and the dust flew up, making the sky and the earth dark.In the gloomy world, only the sword in Jingui's hand is the only bright color.

Jingui's sword is not simple.

It wasn't until the dust fell down one after another that Fang He realized that just now, he held his breath, for fear that a slight tremor of his breath would disturb the giant beast dormant in the dark.

Although Jingui's sword still has the shadow of sword power, strictly speaking, it has already broken away from the sword power and reached a higher level.This is a bit like Li Wansheng's sword intent, but the sword intent is worse than him.

As for what happened, Fang He still can't figure it out.

Jingui slowly retracted his sword, he glanced around with a wry smile, patted his head and said: "I almost forgot, now in Nine Nights City, the surrounding houses are not secure. Let's clean up quickly, or later, my lord Come out and see all this, I'm afraid I'm going crazy."

Fang He responded lightly and looked around.Jingui's sword just now had no obvious attacking intentions, and even the sword had the flavor of deduction.This sword didn't hurt anyone, but it still did a certain amount of damage.

The surrounding houses had completely collapsed, and tiles and rotting wood fell silently in the corners, looking dirtier and messier than before.

Fighting is fun for a while, but tidying up kills people.

Fang He and Jingui got busy, listening to the rhythmic sound of the pill furnace "bang bang bang", began to renovate the house, and pulled out the weeds growing in the corners by the way.

After the busy work, the surrounding courtyard became much tidier.Jingui tapped his waist, his face was full of exhaustion, and his fighting thoughts had rested a lot. He looked at the sky and said to Fang He: "I reckon, the young master won't be able to come out for a while. Let's go recruit some people first, and tidy up this courtyard, and it is estimated that we will spend a lot of time here."

Jingui has obviously done many such things before, and at this moment with Fang He, a novice, he seems to be able to handle it with ease.After bypassing many prosperous streets and alleys, Fang He followed Jingui to a slightly remote place.

There are not as many people here as there were in the streets just now, and there are even fewer female monks.Most of the people who came here, like Fang He and Jingui, were doing things for their masters.At this moment, he was whispering something to the people on the street.

Looking around, everything was ordinary, as if he and Jingui had come to the wrong place.

But Fang He knew that this was an illusion.Jingui walked up a few steps skillfully, and whispered something with the person standing beside the street. The voice was very soft, and he could only hear two or three sentences faintly. Then, the person standing on the street had a smile on his face.From his face, Fang He could see three big characters——

Big business.

He hurriedly said: "The boy's surname is Jia, and the two fellow Taoists will call me Jia Cheng. We have a good source of goods here." After speaking, Jia Ming walked towards a small secluded corner.

Jia Ming, this name is really sincere, isn't this just telling others that he is a fake name.

After all, it is a large-scale talent trading market, and it must cover a large area. Generally, it will not be opened on the bright side, but will be transferred underground to operate.Fang He followed Jingui closely, and under the leadership of Jia Ming, he walked more and more remote, and finally came to a dead end.

There is no other way except the way of coming.

Fang He watched Jia Ming cautiously and slapped his hands two or three times. A small formation appeared in front of him.A light blue halo shrouded the dark alley, Fang He only glanced at it, and found that this formation was slightly similar to the space formation he saw 1000 years later.

It's just that this formation has been condensed a bit and many unnecessary steps have been omitted, making it look more precise and compact.Fang He and Jingui stepped on this small space formation, and in a blink of an eye, they came to another place.

The noise and noise filled Fang He's ears, drumming his eardrums.When Fang He opened his eyes, he felt that he had come to another Nine Nights City.

The lights are red and the willows are green, here is the ocean of all desires.The male and female monks embraced each other in full view, with soft waists and thin shoulders.Fang He looked around, only to feel that he had come to a new world.

Following behind Jia Ming, passing through rows of crowds, Fang He saw a group of young boys and girls lined up. They had good posture and well-mannered manners. At first glance, they didn't look like they were serving people. It's like being served.

Jia Ming winked and said, "Look, how about these? These are all high-quality goods." His words were full of complacency, obviously, he had sufficient confidence in the quality of these boys and girls.

Jingui's face darkened directly: "This is what I told you before? If you are like this, I will change to another person to do the business."

Jingui's tone didn't look like he was joking, which let Jia Ming know that he had misunderstood the meaning.He was not ashamed, and said: "Then your son is really a pity, these people, just one of them makes people linger."

While speaking, he brought Fang He and Jingui to another place.The monks here are the same as the group just now, neatly arranged, but from their bodies, they can feel agile and energetic.

These are the servants.

Jingui nodded in satisfaction, he pointed at forty or fifty people casually, and said to Jia Ming, "I want all of these people." When he said this, he paused, his tone slightly raised, He asked Jia Ming:

"The people here will not make any mistakes."

When choosing a servant, the most fearful thing is to encounter black goods, who come from wrong paths.For example, I didn't come to be a slave willingly.In case of misfortune, it is possible to buy black goods with an extremely powerful background, and I am afraid that it will be a catastrophe.

Jia Ming waved his hands again and again and said, "How come, I don't have the guts. I have the deeds of prostitution for these people, and I will give them to you when the time comes."

Hearing this, Jingui was relieved, he paid the money readily, and left after getting a large stack of deeds of sale.When leaving, Jia Ming was still reluctant to part with him, and wanted to sell Fang He and the others his best servants, but they all rejected them.

On the way back, Fang He asked Jingui to ask for the stack of deeds of sale, and rummaged through them.If he guessed correctly, more than half of the [-] Tianjiao are hiding in the Nine Nights City.

Nine Nights City looks very big, but if there are thousands of people hiding in it, it will appear extremely small.

And...if you guess correctly, monks cannot use false names.Once he has the idea of ​​using a fake name, he will mechanically say his real name just like Wu Shengtian.

This is the restriction of heaven on them.

As Fang He thought about it, the movements of his hands slowed down, his eyes casually scanned the name on this contract of sale, and then turned to the next one, with a very short pause in between, which was very natural.

When he was talking with Jingui, his eyes fell on the other party without a trace.

The other party was a teenager, young, about 25 or [-] years old, with a fair face, which was very eye-catching compared to the overworked servants around him, and he was a really good face.

However, his gaze was exceptionally quiet, and even looking closely, he was a little timid, as if he came from a small household, and when he looked into someone's eyes, he still had a little dodge.

At the first glance, people are surprised, but at the second glance, they will ignore him.

However, when Fang He saw the name above, Fang He would not ignore this name

After all, the name Cheng Luhe is still very rare. Fang He has only seen this name twice in the three heavens plus the Central Continent.

Once, on the screen of the ugly hour of the day before yesterday.

It says—

[Ranked No. 350, Cheng Luhe, ranks [-]th and eighth on the Tianjiao list, medium Tianjiao. 】

Another time, it was on the deed of sale just now.

Such a coincidence cannot be ignored.
