Chapter 236: The Three Guardians
The news that the seventy-third princess had become Kunlun's disciple quickly spread throughout the Great Zhou imperial city.
Although the head of Kunlun is not very old, his cultivation has reached the Nascent Soul stage. He will definitely be one of the few people standing at the top of the world of immortal cultivation in the future. Even for the prince of the Great Zhou, it is a great honor to become his disciple.
It is said that the Seventy-third Princess waited outside his door for a day and a night in order to see him. This moved the head of Kunlun, who made an exception and accepted her as a disciple.
When this news came out, countless people regretted it.
If they had known earlier, they would have been waiting outside. Otherwise, such a good thing might not have happened to the Seventy-third Princess.
The Great Zhou Dynasty had no opinion on this matter.
Your Majesty has more than a hundred children . It is a great opportunity for the little princess to be accepted as a disciple by the head of Kunlun. It is also a bond to strengthen the relationship between Da Zhou and Kunlun.
In today's world of immortal cultivation, Kunlun has already shown a trend of becoming the leader of the righteous path. It is said that a hundred years later, the Xuantian World and the Lingyuan World will be connected. Strengthening the connection with Kunlun will bring only benefits and no harm.
The Seventy-Three Princesses' Mansion.
Someone from the Great Zhou Dynasty had just come and congratulated Li Yu on accepting the seventy-third princess Zhou Yan as his disciple, which also expressed the attitude of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The girl knelt on her knees and respectfully offered Li Yu a cup of tea, saying, "Master, please have some tea."
Li Yu took the teacup and took a sip, which was considered as accepting him as his disciple.
Then, he took out boxes of pills and said, "This is a gift from Master to you."
As his only disciple, her cultivation level of the initial stage of foundation building with a single spiritual vein was obviously not good enough. She had to first improve it to the perfection of the five spiritual veins golden elixir.
Zhou Yan was still immersed in the joy of being accepted as a disciple by her idol. When she saw the boxes of pills piled high, she was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion, "Master, what kind of pills are these?"
Li Yu explained: "These are Tongmai Dan, these are Tuomai Dan, there are also Foundation Building Dan, Jinling Dan, Jiuzhuan Dan, and Infant Pregnancy Dan. First, upgrade your five spiritual veins to the Golden Dan Perfection, and then consider the matter of forming an infant..."
The girl stood there in a daze for a long time. She had never expected that the gift from her master would be so generous.
The Second Brother and his companions have practiced for more than a hundred years to achieve their current level of cultivation.
If she finished eating all these pills, wouldn't she be more powerful than her second brother and ninth sister?
Is this the foundation of their Kunlun Sect?
The imperial court had recently obtained many precious elixirs, but it was not her turn at all.
Suddenly, she was hit by great happiness. Overnight, her life changed drastically, making it difficult for her to adapt for a while.
Li Yu said: "Go to your place of practice, I will help you refine these pills first."
After the girl came to her senses, she looked at Li Yu and said with emotion: "Master, you are so good to Yan'er..."
From childhood to adulthood, she had only seen her father a few times, and except for her mother, no one had ever been so kind to her.
Li Yu touched her head and said, "Master may need your help in the future..."
The girl raised her head and said with a solemn oath: "Master, if you need any help, Yan'er will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
This little disciple was not accepted in vain. In the next few days, Li Yu stayed in the princess's mansion to help her improve her cultivation.
Her path of cultivation was much happier than Li Yu's own. After all, he didn't have a reliable and responsible master like him who paved the way for her before the Nascent Soul stage.
There are Tongmai Pills in the Qi Refining Stage, Tuomai Pills in the Foundation Building Stage, Jiuzhuan Pills in the Golden Core Stage, and things like Foundation Building Pills and Golden Spirit Pills can even be eaten as food. She also has a master who is a Five Elements Nascent Soul cultivator by her side to help her refine the medicinal power. In just three days, her cultivation level has been raised from the initial stage of foundation building with a single spirit vein to the perfection of the Golden Core with five spirit veins.
However, it is not so easy to form a Nascent Soul. Even if Li Yu has asked her to take the Barrier Breaking Pill, she will still have to wait five to ten years to form a Nascent Soul.
Li Yu thought for a moment and asked her, "Do you want to practice here, or go back to Kunlun with me?"
Zhou Yan said without any hesitation: "I will go back with Master."
Li Yu saw her lips moving, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated, and asked, "If you can't bear to leave your family, you can stay for a few more days..."
Zhou Yan shook her head and said, "No, I...can I ask Master a question ?"
Li Yu said: "Ask?"
Zhou Yan looked up at him and asked curiously, "Master, do you like Uncle Qin more, or the Saintess of Xuanyin Sect more?"
Li Yu knocked her on the head and said unhappily, "Don't ask so many questions, kid!"
Li Yu stayed in Da Zhou for a few more days to give Zhou Yan time to say goodbye to her family. She was seventeen years old this year and had only seen her father a few times. She had lived with her mother since she was a child.
Her mother was the daughter of a small family in the Great Zhou Dynasty. She was selected to enter the palace. Her talent for cultivation was not very high and she was only at the Foundation Establishment stage. Li Yu asked Zhou Yan to bring some elixirs, which were enough for her to advance to the Golden Core stage.
During this period, Li Yu also went to Danbu Si.
Although he had only known his colleagues from the Alchemy Department for a short time, it was still an interesting experience. He did not reveal his identity, but only told them that he planned to go to Kunlun to try. Although Yao Dayuan was reluctant to let such an alchemy genius leave, he only sighed and said, "I knew that the Alchemy Department could not keep a genius like you. Go, even to Kunlun, that is where alchemists should go..."
Li Yu handed him a wooden box and said with a smile: "As friends, I will give you a small gift."
After watching Li Yu leave, Yao Dayuan returned to the duty room with a sigh.
The parting gift from Li Yu was casually placed on the table by him. He was still sad about the loss of a talented person under his command and did not think that he could give anything valuable.
When he left the government office, he was going to Xiaoyao Pavilion to taste some new tea and relieve his depression. He glanced casually and saw the gift Li Yu gave him, and opened it casually.
The next moment, his eyes widened.
As an alchemist, although he didn't know many elixirs, he was familiar with Tuomai Pills and Jinling Pills. These pills were enough to raise his cultivation to the Jindan stage...
Li Yu is just a first-grade alchemist. Where did he get so many high-level elixirs?
Even a Tuomai Pill is enough to make the Foundation Establishment Stage fight to the point of bloodshed, not to mention these few Jinling Pills...
He himself was at the foundation-building stage, but he actually gave these elixirs that could allow one to advance from foundation-building to golden elixir to someone he had known for less than a month.
Unless his cultivation is not at the foundation-building stage, unless he is another Li Yu.
To them, the alchemists, that person was like a god.
Thinking about what happened in the royal capital recently, Yao Dayuan seemed to have guessed something and his eyes suddenly widened.
…
Kunlun.
The news that the headmaster had returned to the sect and accepted a disciple had spread to Kunlun through the channels of Xiaoyao Sect as early as when Li Yu was still in the imperial capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
After Li Yu returned to Kunlun, as soon as he arrived at Yuxuan Peak, Zhou Yan was surrounded by the girls. They kept calling her "Master's Wife", which made them very happy.
After Ling'er, Yuxuan Peak now has another favorite.
After respectfully greeting all the ladies, she naturally received a lot of gifts.
At a certain moment, she gently tugged at Li Yu's sleeve and asked, "Master, should I go to see my uncle?"
The uncle-master she mentioned was Senior Sister Qin.
Li Yu knew that she was a die-hard fan of Senior Sister Qin, and on the way back to the sect, she kept asking about Senior Sister Qin.
Li Yu brought her to Yuxu Peak and to Senior Sister Qin's palace.
When the girl saw a figure in the hall, she stepped forward impatiently, her face flushed, and she bowed and said, "Zhou Yan greets Uncle Master."
Li Yu explained: "This is my new disciple."
Qin Keren helped her up and said, "No need to be so polite."
Being helped up by her idol, the girl blushed and mustered up the courage to ask, "Uncle Master, can I call you Sister Qin?"
Senior Sister Qin is only about ten years older than her, so it’s okay to call her sister.
Being in the same sect, this kind of address would inevitably confuse the generations, but Li Yu did not say anything. Their sect was already quite chaotic, and to be honest, the demon girl would have to call him uncle.
Qin Keren didn't say anything either, but her eyes were always evasive when she looked at Li Yu.
Li Yu knew that she had not yet gotten over the last kissing incident, so he only stayed here for a moment before leaving with Zhou Yan.
When leaving Yuxu Peak, Zhou Yan asked expectantly, "Master, can I visit Sister Qin often in the future?"
Li Yu shrugged and said, "Of course."
Senior Sister Qin is all alone, so it would be nice for her to have a cheerful little fan who can talk to her often. Originally, this responsibility should be Li Yu's, but given the current situation, when Li Yu goes to see her, it will definitely be for more than just talking.
After flying away from Yuxu Peak, Zhou Yan asked again: "Master, isn't Miss Nangong here?"
Li Yu shook his head and said, "She is in seclusion in Xuanyin Sect."
After learning the news that Senior Sister Qin had conceived a baby, Li Yu could no longer contact the witch. Based on Li Yu's understanding of her, it was impossible for her to appear before the baby was conceived.
Seeing that Li Yu did not return to Yuxuan Peak, Zhou Yan asked, "Master, where are we going?"
Li Yu said: "I'll take you for a walk outside."
A moment later, Sun and Moon Sect.
When Li Yu brought Zhou Yan here, Wu Tong, Chen Ming, and another old man were drinking.
Li Yu felt a little relieved when he saw Chen Ming.
When Chen Ming went home to visit his relatives some time ago, news from the Lingyuan Realm had just spread. The world of immortal cultivation was in chaos, and even dozens of Jindan-stage cultivators from the Tiandao Sect had died. Li Yu was still worried that something might happen to him.
The Thousand-Faced Saint Lord temporarily lives in the Sun and Moon Sect. For convenience, Li Yu gave him the position of the Central Protector.
Including Wu Tong and Chen Ming, the Sun Moon Sect now has a total of three Dharma protectors.
However, he did not tell Wu Tong and Chen Ming the other party's identity.
If they knew that the person drinking and chatting with them now was a being at the Void Breaking level, they would definitely not be as calm as they are now.
The Sun and Moon Sect is so small, its leader is only at the Nascent Soul stage, but its guardian is at the Void Breaking stage. Li Yu always feels a little weird about this.
Li Yu introduced with a smile : "This is my new disciple."
Zhou Yan also said obediently: "Zhou Yan has met several seniors."
The Thousand-Faced Saint glanced at Li Yu, then moved his gaze to Zhou Yan, raised his eyebrows slightly, and then said, "Girl, come here."
For some reason, Zhou Yan always felt that this old man was particularly kind. She walked over slowly. The Thousand Faces Saint Lord stretched out his hand. A light flashed in his palm, and a seal appeared. There were complex runes engraved on the seal, and light was flowing on it.
He handed the seal over and said, "I'll give this to you as a magic weapon."
Zhou Yan looked at Li Yu, who nodded and said, "Since it was given to you by the senior, you should accept it."
Wu Tong and Chen Ming couldn't tell, but Li Yu could tell at a glance that this was a replica of the Zhentian Seal, which was enough for her to use until she reached the Spirit Transformation Stage.
Seeing Li Yu nod, Zhou Yan accepted the treasure and said sweetly, "Thank you, senior."
At this time, a voice sounded in Li Yu's heart: "Boy, what are you planning?"
Li Yu looked at the Thousand Faces Saint and thought to himself, "What are you talking about, Senior? I just traveled to the Great Zhou and happened to see this girl, so I accepted her."
The Thousand Faces Saint Lord glanced at him and said nothing more.
After staying here for a while, Li Yu took Zhou Yan away.
He naturally had his reasons for bringing her here to show off. After all, Zhou family blood flowed in her body. As the ancestor of the Zhou family, the Thousand-Faced Saint Lord had to take care of her. If she could please him, she would have a backer at the level of Breaking the Void, which was unmatched by any prince or princess.
At this time, the Sun and Moon Sect.
Chen Ming looked at the Thousand Faces Saint and said, "I heard that you asked Li Yu to refine a lot of pregnancy pills. Lend me three."
The Thousand Faces Saint looked at Chen Ming and said calmly, "Such a strong evil spirit, those Jindan of Tiandao Sect, you must have killed them, right?"
Chen Ming did not comment, and said: "They can't reach the Nascent Soul stage anyway, so the sooner they return to the abyss, the sooner they will be liberated."
The Thousand Faces Saint threw him three pregnancy pills and asked, "What will happen to this body after it becomes a Nascent Soul? For the sake of the Five Elements Divine Transformation, can you still kill all the Nascent Souls of various sects? Aren't you afraid of becoming the target of public criticism and angering the other old guys?"
Chen Ming threw three pregnancy pills into his mouth, and three powerful magical power fluctuations soon came from his body, which were covered up by him waving his hands.
He smiled faintly and said slowly: "To transform the Five Elements into a god, it is not necessary to kill the Yuanying of each sect..."
The Thousand-Faced Saint's eyes moved slightly, and he said, "You mean..."
After a long time, he looked at Wu Tong again and asked, "Aren't you going to learn from the ghost of the underworld?"
Wu Tong looked deep in his eyes and said, "Two eras ago, there was an important event, and all traces of its existence were deliberately erased. I have a guess, but I don't know if it's right. It would be best if someone could reach that level first and help me verify it..."
