Chapter 231: Thousand-Faced Saint
With tens of thousands of pills, an average alchemist would probably be exhausted to death.
Although Li Yu was able to refine pills very quickly, he didn't want to waste his time.
If it were someone else, he would have flatly refused.
But facing this old guy, Li Yu was silent for a moment and finally agreed.
With the Qiankun furnace at full power, it wouldn't take long to process tens of thousands of pills. After all, these tens of thousands of pills wouldn't all be the most time-consuming pregnancy pills, and the entire world couldn't gather enough materials for so many.
However, even for ordinary Tongmai Pills, Tuomai Pills, etc., it is extremely difficult to gather the materials for tens of thousands of pills.
There must be a very powerful force behind this old man, whose size is not weaker than the major sects of both the righteous and evil sects, and even larger than the three giants of the righteous and evil sects.
In the entire Xuantian world, there are only two such forces .
One is the Tiandao Sect.
The other is the Central Dynasty.
It is unlikely that the strong men of Tiandao Sect would help him kill Wang Heng.
In this way, his identity is obvious.
Not far away, Zhao Xiner raised her head and asked Li Yu in confusion: "Brother, who are you talking to?"
Although they have become Taoist companions, they are still accustomed to calling Li Yu "senior brother".
Li Yu glanced at the old man opposite him. He was still sitting there steadily, having already started to eat his second apple, but it seemed that only Li Yu could see him. This was definitely not a simple hiding technique.
He seemed to be sitting there, but he didn't actually exist in this space.
Li Yu was silent for a moment, then asked, "Excuse me, Senior, are you the Great Zhou Saint?"
Li Yu had also broken through the void before and knew its power.
The initial grasp of the rules of space is the most obvious difference between breaking the void and becoming a spirit.
Breaking the Void is the watershed of cultivation. Even if one tries one's best in the Nascent Soul stage, one can hurt the Spiritual Transformation stage, but below the Breaking the Void stage, one cannot hurt the Breaking the Void stage at all.
Even though this matter was hard to believe, Li Yu was now certain that the old man sitting opposite him was one of the few powerful Void Breakers in the current world of immortal cultivation.
The old man glanced at Li Yu with a look of obvious surprise.
Those who have lived for hundreds of years in the Nascent Soul stage knew very little about breaking the void, but this little guy actually guessed his identity so quickly.
He did not deny it and said, "Yes, I didn't expect that you actually knew this old man..."
Li Yu actually didn't know much about Poxu. Most of what he knew was what Wu Tong told him. In the Great Zhou Dynasty, there was only one Poxu, who was an emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty thousands of years ago who was extremely talented in spiritual practice and was also called the "Saint King" by the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Li Yu had no interaction with this person in the illusion.
The Great Zhou Dynasty was established after the fall of the Tianyan Dynasty. At that time, the current royal family was just the ministers of the Tianyan Dynasty. The Tianyan royal family was driven to another world and replaced by their former ministers. Apart from the Tiandao Sect, the one they hate the most is the current Great Zhou royal family.
Compared to the Tiandao Sect, the Great Zhou Dynasty is obviously easier to bully .
The remnants of Tianyan in Lingyuan Realm have made a comeback, and the first target they attack is the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The other party had been prepared. As soon as the two worlds were connected, they gathered several Void Pokers and dozens of God Transformations, making the Great Zhou Dynasty the first force to be destroyed. The Saint Sovereign of the Great Zhou was also the first Void Poker to fall.
While Li Yu was thinking about this, two figures were walking towards him from a distance.
The old man looked up and said to Li Yu: "I will go and prepare the materials for alchemy, you wait here..."
As soon as he finished speaking, his body became ethereal and gradually disappeared in front of Li Yu.
Wu Tong and Chen Ming came to the pavilion to receive a new batch of pills from Li Yu. Almost every month, there are people in the Foundation Establishment Stage who are about to die and come to the Sun and Moon Sect. This month, Wu Tong has come for the second time.
Li Yu handed a bottle of Golden Spirit Pill to Wu Tong and asked about the Holy Lord of Great Zhou.
Wu Tong took the pill and said, "You mean the Thousand-Faced Saint Lord? He is the only one in the Great Zhou Dynasty who has broken through the Void. He was once the Great Zhou Emperor and had countless beauties in his harem. After all his concubines returned to the abyss, he disappeared. It is said that he changes into a new face every day. No one has ever seen his true face, so he is called the Thousand-Faced Saint Lord... Why are you asking this?"
Li Yu said: "I'm just curious, just asking."
The title of Thousand-Faced Holy Lord is quite appropriate. Every time Li Yu sees him, he looks different.
According to Wu Tong, the strength of this saint monarch of the Great Zhou Dynasty is among the top among all the powerful Void Breakers in the world of immortal cultivation.
In terms of seniority, he may not be as good as the other Poxu, but in his hand, he controls the Zhentian Seal, one of the five great immortal artifacts.
Breaking the Void with an immortal weapon and breaking the Void without an immortal weapon are two completely different realms. With an immortal weapon in hand, one can fight two or even three enemies of the same level.
Wu Tong and Chen Ming left quickly. Li Yu took out a few jade slips and fell into deep thought.
A hundred years is neither short nor long.
In the illusion, it was precisely because of the lack of preparation that the major forces of the Xuantian World paid a heavy price.
If the deduction in the illusion is correct , there are still a hundred years before the invasion of the Lingyuan Realm. If we prepare in advance, at least we won't be caught off guard.
Although the Piaomiao Immortal Sect has been destroyed for tens of thousands of years, the things they left behind are still far ahead of the current world of immortal cultivation.
If the contents of these jade slips were made public, the overall strength of the Xuantian Realm would be .
Li Yu first came to Yuxu Peak and convened an emergency meeting.
The invasion of the Lingyuan Realm is a serious matter and needs to be discussed within Kunlun first.
Regarding what Li Yu said, Kunlun's Nascent Soul ancestors looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Spiritual Realm?"
"Is there such a secret place? How come I have never heard of it?"
"There is such a thing..."
The lifespan of all the Nascent Soul masters in Kunlun is no more than a thousand years, and the last war between the two worlds happened more than a thousand years ago, nearly two thousand years ago. It is normal that they have never heard of it.
At a certain moment, a figure suddenly appeared in the meeting hall.
He was an old man with a hunched back. His hair had almost all fallen out. His face and head were covered with brown spots, and he looked very old.
"Meet Master Lingxu!"
Seeing this old man, all the Nascent Soul masters present respectfully left their seats and saluted.
The old man ignored them, looked straight at Li Yu and asked, "Are you telling the truth?"
Before Li Yu became the official headmaster, his master told him that there were nine gods in Kunlun.
This Lingxu Patriarch is one of them, and also the oldest one, at the age of 1,800.
Li Yu expressed his speculation: "There are many small worlds between Xuantian Realm and Lingyuan Realm. When the two worlds move away, those small worlds will also move away. When the two worlds move closer, the small worlds will also be squeezed by the force of space and move closer to the big world. When new cave secret realms begin to appear frequently over a period of time, it means that the two big worlds are not far from meeting each other..."
After hearing Li Yu's words, Patriarch Lingxu's expression gradually became serious.
The last time the Lingyuan Realm was invaded, he was only in the Foundation Establishment Stage. He still remembers the battle that lasted for a hundred years vividly.
Countless Yuanying ancestors and Shenhua ancestors died in those wars. Li Yu's words brought back his long-forgotten memories.
Seeing Master Lingxu's expression, everyone in the hall finally realized the seriousness of the matter.
As messages from the spirit conchs came out from Kunlun, soon, spirit boats flew up from Shushan, Emei, Qingcheng, the Soul Refining Sect, the Xuanyin Sect, and the Puppet Sect, and gathered towards Kunlun...
…
At this time, somewhere in the Kunlun Mountains.
An old man floated in the air and said calmly, "Master Wutong, old ghost of the underworld, what do you mean?"
Opposite him, there were also two figures floating. One of them smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Qianmian, why are you coming to Kunlun instead of staying in Da Zhou?"
The Thousand Faces Saint Lord glanced at him and asked, "Why? Only you can come to Kunlun. I can't come here. This is not Xiaoyao Sect or Lianhun Sect. Dan Chenzi didn't say anything..."
The man smiled and said, "Kunlun can come, of course, but I hope that fellow Taoist Qianmian will not embarrass our sect leader..."
The Thousand-Faced Saint looked at them and said, "What secrets does that kid have that made you two stay with him for so long..."
The man said, "Hasn't Fellow Daoist Qianmian noticed our Sect Master a long time ago?"
The Thousand-Faced Saint swept his eyes over the two men. With the Heaven-Suppressing Seal in his hand, although he was not afraid of them, there was no need for him to fight them. He glanced at them again and explained, "He owes me a favor. I just want him to refine some medicine..."
