Chapter 267: Shura Holy Fire, Wei Wuya's Invitation
In the escaping light, there was a green figure with a slender figure, handsome face, and a faint smile in his eyes. He looked like a handsome young man.
The other black figure was a stunning girl wearing a black tight long skirt, with skin as white as snow and a well-proportioned body.
It was Ye Changsheng and Yuan Yao.
Not long ago, Yuan Yao successfully practiced several powerful secret techniques of Shura Pluto Gong, and then came out of the secluded place.
After Ye Changsheng sensed that she had come out of seclusion, he also came out and helped Yuan Yao master the Shura Holy Fire.
Then, Ye Changsheng calculated with his fingers and found that the Nine-Nation Alliance's number one trade fair in southern Tian should be about to begin.
So, he took Yuan Yao out of the valley and flew towards the Nine-Nation Alliance in the south, intending to take a look at the trade fair.
The largest trade fair in Tiannan was held in the Yu State of the Nine-Nation Alliance. The city of Tiantian, built deep in the mountains of this country, was the headquarters of the Nine-Nation Alliance.
This is the only city of cultivators in Tiannan. Everyone living in this city, regardless of gender, age or status, are cultivators with spiritual roots.
Although this city cannot be called the largest city in Tiannan, it is large enough to be ranked among the top five. In the city, there are as many as six or seven old monsters in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul from the Nine-Nation Alliance alone.
It is said that Wei Wuya, the only great monk of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, also often appears here.
It can be said that no matter who is causing trouble here, the Nine-Nation Alliance can deal with it.
No matter whether they are from the righteous or evil sects, the Heavenly Dao Alliance, or the unruly independent cultivators, none of them dare to act recklessly in this city.
In fact, a hundred years ago, the largest trade fair in Tiannan was not held in the Nine-Nation Alliance, but was organized separately by the righteous and evil forces.
It was not until the forces of good and evil joined forces to invade and expand into the surrounding areas that the qualification to hold the trade fair was wrested away from the forces of good and evil under the resistance of the newly established Tiandao League and the Nine Nations League.
This time it is handled by the Nine-Nation Alliance, and next time it will be the turn of the Tiandao Alliance.
This can be considered as a punishment for both the good and evil forces. Having lost the qualification to hold the trade fair, it goes without saying that these two forces have lost a lot of benefits.
A month or two before the first trade fair in Tiannan was held, the Nine-Nation Alliance, as the host, removed most of the restrictions on the city's famous "Shangyuan Extinguishing Light Array".
Because at this time some monks who came from afar had already arrived in this city, and some impatient monks had even started setting up stalls in some markets in the city in advance.
After all, when the trade fair is really held, although there will be a lot of treasures here and all kinds of precious materials will emerge in an endless stream, they are definitely not something that ordinary cultivators can afford.
If you really want to buy some slightly rarer suitable materials, you’d better look for them as soon as possible.
The only auction house in Tiantian City is also opened by the Nine-Nation Alliance. It has now begun accepting bids and valuations for various precious items!
The entire city of Tiantian gradually became lively.
Ye Changsheng and Yuan Yao also arrived near Tiantian City at this time. Yuan Yao snuggled up to Ye Changsheng, and looked around the scenery casually.
Occasionally, some cultivators passed by in the distance, but after their spiritual senses swept over Ye Changsheng and Yuan Yao from a distance, their expressions suddenly changed drastically and they quickly flew away, as if they were afraid of getting into trouble.
Neither of them concealed their cultivation level, so when these cultivators saw the two Nascent Soul masters traveling together, they immediately became frightened and took a detour.
"Is this the Tiantian City?" Yuan Yao said, standing on a slope outside the city, looking at the huge city in the distance.
There was a hint of curiosity in her eyes, but also a little disappointment.
She had heard of the fame of Tiantian City a long time ago, and she thought the city was very magnificent.
Seeing it with my own eyes today, Tiantian City is a large city with an area of over a hundred miles. It is indeed huge in scale, but compared with Tianxing City in Chaos Star Sea, it is nothing.
When the Star City occupies the entire island, it is truly a giant.
When they arrived near Tiantian City, they had to walk forward, so Ye Changsheng and Yuan Yao fell here from the air.
"Let's go into the city early, maybe we can get something!" Ye Changsheng said to Yuan Yao with a slight smile on his face.
The two men walked down the hillside and headed towards the huge city gate in the distance.
Because they were near the city of Khotan, monks came walking towards the city from all directions.
Ye Changsheng and Yuan Yao were extremely conspicuous walking in the crowd. Yuan Yao's peerless appearance attracted a lot of attention.
However, as soon as these eyes fell on the two people, they immediately discovered their cultivation levels, and then their faces changed drastically, not daring to look at them any more.
They all stepped aside and made way for the two to pass.
"Hey, Senior Brother Ye!" A cry of surprise suddenly came from not far away.
Ye Changsheng had already noticed the person coming. He turned his head to look in that direction with a half-smile on his face.
Han Li and Lu Luo came over from the other side.
Han Li called "Senior Brother Ye" with full confidence, because a few years ago, he finally broke through the bottleneck and became a Nascent Soul cultivator.
After nearly two hundred years, the title of Senior Brother Ye is finally called back again!
At this moment, not to mention Han Li's heart was filled with emotion, even Ye Changsheng had a somewhat regretful look on his face.
Han Li's cultivation progress in the Jindan stage is even faster than that in the foundation building stage.
The bottleneck of the Jindan stage held him back for sixty years, but the bottleneck of the Yuanying stage did not hold him back at all.
In the final analysis, it is because aptitude has a huge impact on the bottleneck of Jindan. Han Li's aptitude is extremely poor, so the bottleneck of Jindan can hold him back for a long time.
Before reaching the bottleneck of Nascent Soul stage, aptitude had little influence, so Han Li was able to break through so quickly.
Of course, this was also related to the fact that Han Li had obtained several opportunities, which had allowed his aptitude to improve by leaps and bounds, and now was basically comparable to a person with natural spiritual roots.
"Junior Brother Han, congratulations on breaking through the Nascent Soul stage!" Ye Changsheng looked at Han Li, sized him up for a few seconds and said.
Then, he bowed to Lu Luo and said, "Hello, Brother Lu!"
Lu Luo quickly returned the greeting politely, then looked at Yuan Yao and asked in surprise, "Who is this fellow Taoist?"
There was something strange in Lu Luo's eyes, he was very surprised and shocked, because he clearly remembered that the last time Ye Changsheng came to the three sects of Yunmeng, he brought Nangong Fairy from Yanyue Sect with him.
Now, there is another peerless beauty beside him, and she is also in the Nascent Soul stage. This...
Isn’t it a bit unbelievable?
"Could it be that Fellow Daoist Ye is still a playboy? However, no matter how much of a playboy he is, he wouldn't change his female companion to a Yuanying stage at every turn, right?"
"There are very few female Nascent Soul cultivators in Tiannan. Wait, I seem to have heard before that a female cultivator in Yuanwu Country successfully formed a Nascent Soul, and there are also rumors that this female cultivator is related to Fellow Daoist Ye. Could it be this person?" Lu Luo guessed in his heart.
When he suddenly saw Ye Changsheng's appearance as a playboy, his heart was filled with shock.
There are such playboys in the world of immortal cultivation, and there are many who change their female companions at any time.
But for these people, their female companions are basically several levels lower in cultivation than them.
For example, an old monster in the Nascent Soul stage, the concubines he can replace at will are basically in the Foundation Establishment stage.
Just like the Nanlong Marquis whom he and Han Li had just met, this man had two concubines in the Foundation Establishment stage with him, and he looked like he could send these concubines away at will.
However, if this female cultivator has reached the Jindan stage, then even those of them who are at the Yuanying stage cannot look down on them.
Female cultivators in the Jindan stage are already qualified to be the wife or Taoist partner of a Yuanying cultivator!
The realm of this Fellow Daoist Ye is even more astounding, as the female companions he has replaced are all in the Nascent Soul stage!
If he didn't know Ye Changsheng's cultivation level clearly, Lu Luo would have suspected that he was not an old monster who had reached the state of spiritual transformation.
Han Li, on the other hand, didn't care much about the situation and wasn't at all as surprised and shocked as his senior brother Lu.
Han Li had long been numb to the fact that women always appeared around Ye Changsheng.
Just a female cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage!
If one day Senior Brother Ye appeared with a female cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage, he would not be too surprised. He would just think that this was worthy of being Senior Brother Ye!
Looking at Yuan Yao's peerless beauty, Han Li couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He was a little suspicious that all the beautiful women in the world had been abducted by Senior Brother Ye.
At least that's what happened to him.
Even his former "Uncle Master Mu" in Luoyun Sect is said to have become a disciple of Taoist companion Ye Changsheng.
"This is Ye's Taoist partner, her name is Yuan Yao!" Ye Changsheng smiled slightly, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth, and introduced them to the two.
At this moment, even Han Li couldn't hold it anymore, and he and Lu Luo looked at each other in surprise.
How come another Taoist partner suddenly appeared?
Wasn’t Nangong Wan his Taoist partner last time in Luoyun Sect?
Can there be more than one Taoist partner like this?
Han Li and Lu Luo felt that their knowledge was not enough for a moment.
However, both of them were also scheming people. The strange colors on their faces flashed away immediately. They smiled when they heard the words, and bowed together, saying: "Greetings, Fairy Yuan Yao!"
Yuan Yao also bowed to the two of them.
"Junior Brother Han, have you joined the Luoyun Sect?" Ye Changsheng asked slowly.
"Thanks to Senior Brother Lu and Senior Brother Cheng for not giving up on me, I am now a member of the Luoyun Sect!" Han Li said solemnly.
“Tsk tsk, that’s true. If you go back to Huangfeng Valley and your master is still alive, it would be more or less embarrassing!” Ye Changsheng said with a smile.
Han Li, a Nascent Soul cultivator, really didn't know how to address Li Huayuan, a Jindan cultivator.
Call him Master. Li Huayuan is obviously not worthy of that now. If Li Huayuan were to call him Uncle Master or something like that, both the master and the disciple would probably be extremely embarrassed.
Ye Changsheng had reason to suspect that it was because of this embarrassment that Li Huayuan and Han Li’s senior brothers died at the right time in the original novel.
Hearing Ye Changsheng's words, Han Li couldn't help but touch his nose.
However, Lu Luo who was standing by suddenly realized that the two people in front of him were from Huangfeng Valley.
He did know before that Ye Changsheng and Han Li were both from Huangfeng Valley, but he had never connected the two together. It was not until now that he suddenly realized it.
Suddenly, Lu Luo felt that the Huangfeng Valley was truly a place where hidden dragons and crouching tigers were lurking. Such two talents actually emerged from a sect that was not particularly prominent in Tiannan.
I wonder how that old monster Linghu would feel if he knew this news?
Ye Changsheng alone was enough to make him regret, and now there was another Han Li.
Thinking of this, Lu Luo couldn't help but feel a little more worried. It was indeed as Ye Changsheng had said before, Master Han Li was still alive.
Not only is his master still alive, but two of his senior brothers and sisters are also still alive.
They are Liu Jing and Zhong Weiniang, both of whom are now Jindan cultivators.
As for the other fellow disciples, they all died. After all, if they were unable to form a pill, their lifespans would have ended by now.
What if that old monster Linghu uses these old friendships to win over Han Li and let him return to Huangfeng Valley? What should we do then?
Lu Luo was worried for a moment.
At this time, Ye Changsheng said, "Let's go. Let's not stand here anymore. If we don't go in, the monks around us won't dare to go in!"
Han Li and Lu Luo looked back and saw that indeed, their group of Nascent Soul cultivators were standing there motionless, and the cultivators around them were all standing far away and did not dare to approach.
This city gate, which was more than ten feet high and fifty or six feet wide, was actually blocked by the four of them.
As soon as you enter the city of Khotan, you will see rows of stone houses arranged in an orderly manner.
Between these stone houses, there are bluestone streets of varying widths, as dense as a spider web, with many people coming and going.
"Let's decide on a place to stay first. However, we don't have to squeeze into any inn with others. There is a VIP building here that provides free accommodation for Nascent Soul cultivators. We can just go there directly!" Lu Luo had been to Tiantian City once before, and said with some familiarity.
Ye Changsheng nodded, took Yuan Yao and followed Lu Luo to a corner of Tiantian City, and came to a white light curtain.
Behind the light curtain are many quiet and elegant attics, each with a different style and exquisite craftsmanship.
When other monks passing by the light curtain saw the attic behind the light curtain, they all showed awe and envy on their faces.
But they did not dare to stay here for long and left quickly.
"This is it. The restrictions here can only be opened by Nascent Soul cultivators!" Lu Luo said, stretched out his hand to tear open the white light curtain, and walked in.
Han Li followed closely behind, tearing open the restriction and going in.
Ye Changsheng pulled Yuan Yao and also entered this restricted area.
"Among these attics, Nascent Soul cultivators can bring their disciples to choose any one. If there is a prohibition sign outside the attic, it means there is someone inside!" Lu Luo said, pointing at the attics.
In this large attic, there are already many forbidden lights flashing above, and it is obvious that many Nascent Soul cultivators have come here.
Every time the Tiannan No. 1 trade fair is held, it will attract at least hundreds of Nascent Soul cultivators.
Lu Luo looked at those attics and was about to say something else when suddenly, a forbidden light flashed behind him and another Nascent Soul cultivator walked in.
This was a beautiful middle-aged woman whose cultivation was in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. As soon as she appeared, Lu Luo's face immediately showed a hint of surprise.
"I am Lu Luo from Luoyun Sect, nice to meet Madam Qi!" Lu Luo immediately bowed and said.
"Junior Brother Han, this is Madam Qi from the Huayi Sect, a fellow Taoist with great magical powers!" Lu Luo said to Han Li again, introducing the identity of this middle-aged beauty.
Madam Qi of Huayi Sect seems to be the current person in charge of Huayi Sect.
After Madam Qi arrived here, she looked at the few people, then smiled and said:
"I have met Fellow Daoist Ye. The one next to you must be Fairy Yuan Yao, right?"
"Yes, she is my Taoist partner Yuan Yao!" Ye Changsheng said with a smile on his face.
"Yuan Yao meets Madam Qi!" Yuan Yao also smiled sweetly, bowed and said to Madam Qi.
When this Yuanying cultivator from Huayi Sect saw how close Ye Changsheng and Yuan Yao were, a strange look flashed across his eyes.
Isn’t it said that Fellow Daoist Ye’s Taoist companion is Fairy Nangong?
Wei Lichen from Huayi Sect had angered Fellow Daoist Ye because of this matter, and now he has another Taoist companion by his side...
Madam Qi had many thoughts in her mind, but she didn't show any of them on her face. She turned to Lu Luo and Han Li and said:
"So Fellow Daoist Lu from Luoyun Sect is also here. The fellow Daoist next to you looks a little unfamiliar, but I feel like I've seen him somewhere before!"
"This is our Luoyun Sect's new Nascent Soul Junior Brother Han Li!" Lu Luo said hurriedly.
"Han Li..." Madam Qi pondered for a while, and suddenly her eyes became strange.
"I was wondering why Fellow Daoist Han looked familiar. It turns out that he was the one who got the Xuantian Immortal Vine on the edge of the Mulan Grassland!"
Madam Qi suddenly remembered Han Li's identity. After all, that incident had caused quite a stir back then.
After careful consideration, Madam Qi immediately understood that the Xuantian Immortal Vine must have fallen into Ye Changsheng's hands now.
"Han Li greets Madam Qi!" Han Li bowed to the cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul and said.
Hearing what the other party said, he suddenly remembered the time when he was being hunted down.
Speaking of which, there is a grudge between him and many Nascent Soul cultivators in Tiannan!
However, given Han Li's deep scheming, he naturally would not show anything at this time.
Madam Qi looked at Ye Changsheng with a strange expression, then looked at Han Li and said:
"When Fellow Daoist Han formed his Dan, he caused a huge sensation. Now, only a hundred years have passed, and Fellow Daoist Han has formed his Infant again. This talent is truly amazing!"
When Madam Qi thought about Han Li's age when he formed his infant, she couldn't help but be shocked!
A Nascent Soul that is just over two hundred years old!
This is nothing, and it is acceptable.
However, Han Li was already over 120 years old when he formed his Dan. Only a hundred years had passed, and he had already become a Nascent Soul cultivator.
This talent is not much worse than that of Ye Changsheng, a cultivator who also came from Huangfeng Valley.
In fact, it took Ye Changsheng more than sixty years to form a Dan and a Ying, while it took Han Li more than ninety years to form a Dan and a Ying.
It doesn’t seem much slower!
For Madam Qi, this is another person who deserves special attention. In the future, he will at least be able to enter the later stage and become a great monk. He may even be a material for becoming a god.
Madam Qi couldn't help but say, "Your Huangfeng Valley is really full of talented people!"
At this moment, she even suspected that Huangfeng Valley had hidden some ancient heritage, which was obtained by these two brothers, so they could practice so fast.
I think that once the news of Han Li's infant formation spreads, the threshold of Huangfeng Valley will be trampled down by people.
I’m afraid that the geniuses from the major families of Yue State will be sent to Huangfeng Valley in large numbers, and even many people from outside Yue State will have to join Huangfeng Valley.
After all, if you have one person with such an incredible cultivation speed, it can be said to be a coincidence, but if there are two, then it can't be explained by coincidence, right?
It is hard not to wonder whether Huangfeng Valley is hiding something amazing.
In this case, Huangfeng Valley might face the dangerous situation of having no Nascent Soul to take charge after the death of Old Monster Linghu in this short period of one or two hundred years.
But over time, it might lay the foundation for a big sect!
Facing Madam Qi's exclamation, Ye Changsheng and Han Li looked at each other and chuckled.
Both of them knew that there was nothing wrong with Huangfeng Valley and it was normal. The problem lay with them.
Ye Changsheng knew that there was something wrong with Han Li, and Han Li also knew that there was something wrong with Ye Changsheng. At the same time, Han Li also knew that Ye Changsheng knew that there was something wrong with him, and Ye Changsheng also knew...
After a long period of contact between the two, they already knew this kind of thing very well, but they just didn't point it out.
Just pretend that no one knows. After all, everyone has their own secrets, and that's normal.
In this world of cultivating immortals, who among those who can cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage doesn’t have some secrets?
Moreover, Han Li guessed in his heart that the secret of Ye Changsheng might be bigger than his little green bottle.
Otherwise, Senior Brother Ye would not have been able to cultivate so quickly and become so powerful.
Madam Qi had no idea what these two brothers were thinking. After exclaiming a few words, she turned around and looked at Ye Changsheng, saying:
"Fellow Daoist Ye, our sect's Senior Brother Wei wants to invite you to meet him for something!"
The Senior Brother Wei she was talking about could only be the great monk Wei Wuya.
Hearing this, Ye Changsheng narrowed his eyes and asked, "What do you want to talk to me about, Brother Wei?"
Madam Qi looked at him and smiled, saying, "It's okay to tell Fellow Daoist Ye now. Senior Brother Wei is looking for you because of the Mulan people!"
"Mulan people?!" When Lu Luo heard this, he exclaimed, as if he remembered something, and his face suddenly changed.
Madam Qi glanced at him, smiled softly, and said, "It seems that Fellow Daoist Lu has also figured it out. The last time the Mulan people launched a large-scale attack was a hundred years ago!"
"Now that a hundred years have passed, the Mulan people have been gathering their strength and are ready to take action!"
"This is a major event concerning the structure of the Tiannan cultivation world. Senior Brother Wei will naturally discuss it with Fellow Daoist Ye!"
Madam Qi's words were very polite, but Han Li, Lu Luo and others still heard a sense that only Ye Changsheng was qualified to discuss such an important matter with Wei Wuya, and they were not.
The two men's eyes flickered, but they didn't say anything. The other party's attitude was indeed correct. Faced with such a major event that was related to the life and death of Tiannan, only the three great cultivators and Ye Changsheng, Long Han, Feng Bing and others were qualified to discuss it.
Basically, if they make any decision, it will be the decision of the entire Tiannan!
