Chapter 21: The Seven Cities
If the seven cities are the territory of the Meng family among the five major forces.
As a top power, the Meng family naturally has many branches. The branch that commanded Ruoqicheng was originally just a relatively ordinary branch, but a hundred years ago, an outstanding disciple of this branch realized the true meaning of the Dao and stepped into the realm of Vientiane, and his natural status exploded.
After all, now the top master of the Lei Yuan Small World is only a Yuan Shen Dao person, and the status of Vientiane real people is already extremely high! After that, this Vientiane real person directly served as the city lord of Ruoqi City.
Naturally, the seven cities have also been renovated a lot, and at the same time, because of the protection of the strong, there are many people who come and go.
The task of guarding the gates of the city is naturally very heavy.
In the early morning, it was just dawn.
If Liu Liu of the Seven Cities yawned, he was the armor soldier responsible for guarding the city gate, and he was also the master of the peak of the day after tomorrow. However, in the small tribe, the peak of the day after tomorrow can be regarded as the mainstay, but in Ruoqicheng, it can only be regarded as an ordinary person.
In this kind of big city, at least you have to be a congenital master to be considered a master.
"Dada~"
Suddenly, there was a sound of horses' hooves.
Liu Liu's eyes widened suddenly, and his body straightened.
He has been guarding the door for many years and has seen a lot of things, so he naturally knows that this sound is not the ordinary sound of horses' hooves.
Sure enough, he fixed his eyes.
His head was covered with pitch-black scales, and his hooves and claws were blood-red at the bottom of his limbs, but his eyes were pale purple pupils.
"Bloodhoof Black Dragon Horse!" Liu Liu was shocked in his heart.
It is a mythical beast that is said to have a trace of dragon blood.
Due to the relatively large number and good foot strength, it is deeply loved by some innate masters and is used as a mount.
Basically, those who can ride this kind of divine beast as a mount are eighty percent of them innate masters, and they are often congenital masters with good strength.
Although as far as the Vientiane Realm City Lord of the Seven Cities is concerned, the innate can only be regarded as a mere 'congenital'. But for the entire Ruoqi City, the vast majority of them are acquired souls, and the innate masters are already very powerful big shots!
"What a young master!" This was Liu Liu's second thought, the man sitting on horseback - he was too young, like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy.
"It must be a master who stepped into the innate early, that's why he keeps his appearance so young!" Liu Liu's heart was full of horror.
The one who rode into Ruoqi City was naturally Li Ming.
It's been ten years since I left home, and it's been eight years since I came into contact with the Demon Slayer.
Ten years later, Li Ming is now twenty-two years old.
For those ordinary cultivators, twenty-two years old is just the age of entry into cultivation, and it is very remarkable to be able to step into the Purple Mansion.
However, for Li Ming, who has a very high true spirit essence and can continue to recall some various methods from his soul, the progress is naturally very great.
For example, in terms of qi refining, he stepped into the late stage of Vientiane, and with the Da Luo level qi refining method, his actual Yuan Force strength was no less than that of Vientiane Consummation.
And the gods and demons refining body method rebuilt the "Flame Immortal Body", and stepped into the Vientiane Consummation--- which is truly comparable to the Vientiane Consummation of the gods and demons, which is comparable to those superficial methods of the early and middle stages of the Yuan Shen.
And he has also mastered a lot of supernatural powers--- don't forget, as his memory continues to recover, he naturally has also mastered a lot of supernatural secret arts.
Although the current memories recovered by Li Ming have not included the top supernatural powers created by himself, such as "Eye of the Candle Dragon", "Three Chapters of Thunder and Fire", and "The Hand of Creation", some ordinary (according to the standards of Dao Ancestors), the supernatural powers outside the hundreds of heavens and earths have already 'recalled' ten.
However, the supernatural powers that Li Ming really mastered were mainly the two relatively ordinary supernatural powers of "Xiangtian Law and Earth" and "Three Heads and Six Arms". These two supernatural powers are the most common for gods and demons to refine their bodies, but they are also extremely practical two supernatural powers, and with the two supernatural powers, Li Ming's simple power explosion is enough to compare with the Returning to the Void Earth Immortal of refining the air flow.
There are hundreds of great supernatural powers in heaven and earth, and Li Ming has only participated in one escape class "Meteor Escape", after all, saving his life is more important than fighting.
And the other aspect of the battle, the perception of the Dao, Li Ming's progress is faster.
In ten years, Li Ming evolved the Dao of the Beidou into the Avenue of Stars early, and even surpassed the level of the Great Dao Domain early.
"Star Change" Sixth Style: Bright Star Field!
Once it is cast, it is as if the stars have descended, and a little starlight turns into a field, blessing the whole body with strength!
"Star Change" Seventh Style: Spitfire Meteor!
A move with extremely fast speed, irresistible like a starlight bombardment, pay attention to speed!
With these two moves, Li Ming is enough to fight with the top scattered immortals!
This was still the case of him being distracted by the formation.
Now that Li Ming's formation has reached the level of a formation grandmaster, as soon as his mind moves, he can use the Fuxi stick formation to display various formations.
With Li Ming's strength, naturally he would not casually go to Ruoqi City.
He came to the Seven Cities for the purpose of murder.
Of course, you have to fill your stomach before killing.
"Xiao Er, give me a steamed snowflake fish, two servings of roasted aardvark, and fifteen catties of fried rice."
The familiar one asked Xiao Er to pull the mount in the restaurant, and then ordered a meal, including a meal first.
This meal, the food was very peaceful, and there were no bloody plots. Of course, this may be the magic weapon spear next to Li Ming, which is obviously made of Lei Jin, at least a thousand catties.
Those who can use this magic weapon are definitely not ordinary innate masters!
For cultivators who are in the middle and lower levels of the seventh layer, a powerful innate master is definitely something that cannot be provoked.
Full of wine and food, Li Ming opened a room, turned around and left the restaurant.
After leaving the restaurant, he casually went in and out of several shops, and at the same time laid out a formation to isolate the breath, changing several times.
Three quarters of an hour later, a tall, bearded man appeared at the door of a small shop.
It was a small hut with a pot hanging from it, and on the surface it looked like a small shop selling medicines.
Li Ming's disguised man walked into the pharmacy, saw that there was no one else, and showed a seal to the old woman who sold medicine.
This is just a magic weapon that does not enter the stream, but it means a predator hidden under the five major forces of the entire Lei Yuan Small World.
Demon Slayer.
The Demon Extermination Society, with the task of completing the task of dealing with the Saito clan or killing the monks of the Saito clan, can be exchanged for magic treasures from the Demon Exterminator Society according to merit.
There is no shortage of simple qi refining and body refining methods, but treasures--- Li Ming also needs treasures to study and arrange the formation - however, there are few such treasure materials in the Lei Yuan Small World--- all of which have been scraped by the Saito clan.
Therefore, Li Ming's cooperation with the Demon Slayer Society in the past ten years has been very good.
Of course, as his strength improved, he made fewer shots. The last time he made a move, it was three years ago, when Li Ming killed a real person from the Saito clan.
The old woman who sold the medicine carefully inspected the seal, and then compared it with a magic weapon.
These two magic weapons, themselves sense each other, and they can naturally judge their owners.
Using magic weapons to test is much better than any code. Even if someone takes away the magic weapon refining, the short time of refining is enough for the Demon Slayer Society to know that the owner of the magic weapon has been killed or taken away from the magic weapon.
After carefully inspecting for a few minutes, the old woman who sold medicine nodded silently, turned around and pressed a mechanism, and a passage opened under the pharmacy.
Li Ming nodded, and walked directly down from the passage, which was a shallow cellar.
It's pure tricks, no spells, and it's not deep.
If the cellar was too deep, the city lord of the Vientiane realm swept it away with his divine thoughts, and naturally found out. But the ordinary pharmacy has a cellar, which is ordinary.
What, often someone goes down? Isn't it normal for ordinary people to go to the pharmacy to buy some medicine, and then go to the cellar to get some medicine without medicine.
kill
In the cellar, a man in a robe stood on the edge of the wooden cabinet, took out a box, and opened the box, but Li Ming was a century-old ginseng--- for a normal innate master, a century-old ginseng is a relatively precious medicinal material.
"Brother Huo, this ginseng is a price." It seemed that he was talking to Li Ming about medicinal materials, but in fact, he was communicating with Li Ming.
It is difficult to detect the transmission of divine thoughts, even if the master of the Yuan Shen realm opens the eyes of heaven, it is difficult to intercept what others are talking about with his divine sense, not to mention that Li Ming is still using divine sense.
"Brother Mingdao, you really came to Ruoqi City."
"Chouyi, I didn't expect to meet you here!"
In the Demon Slaying Society, peripheral killers like Li Ming choose their own titles at will, while the internal killers are called the Heavenly Stem, and the liaison personnel are codenamed by the Earth Branch.
The name left by Li Ming in the Demon Slaying Society is Ming Zhenren, of course, this can be regarded as his Tao name.
The ugly one is the second-class liaison person in the entire Demon Slayer Association, and his status is not low.
The liaison personnel with the prefix are basically at the headquarters.
Li Ming and Chouyi had also met, when Li Ming killed the first Vientiane real person cultivated by the Saito clan, which was the treasure that Chouyi contacted and exchanged.
"Brother Ugly, tell me, the Demon Slayer will send a message to me through other channels, hoping that I will come to Ruoqi City, what's going on?"
"City Lord Mengju, you're about to break through the Yuan Shen!" Chouyi's words made Li Ming frown slightly.
The city lord of Mengju is actually the city lord of Ruoqi City.
He is a disciple of the Meng family, and his strength and talent are extremely high.
But his position is firmly on the side of the Saito clan.
Don't be surprised.
Now the Saito clan has conquered the Lei Yuan Small World, but the bottom rarely hears of the name of the Saito Clan, because the Saito Clan is ruled through the five major forces of the Lei Yuan Small World.
How can the five major forces be willing to bear the sin of cause and effect?
Therefore, the attitude of the five major forces is very ambiguous, on the one hand, they are subservient to the Saito clan, and on the other hand, they secretly have other actions.
For example, the Meng family, the head of the five major forces, the Meng family, who practiced the Buddhism Refining Method and the Five Thunder King Kong, and was good at using the thunder knife, was an attempt by the Meng family.
He was defeated and even removed from the Meng family, but in the end he was not found.
Meng Ju, on the other hand, is firmly on the side of the Saito clan, and he is a disciple of a certain Yuan Shinto Taoist of the Saito clan.
Of course, this can also be seen as a form of betting on both sides of the five major forces.
As for Li Ming, he was naturally firmly on the side of the opposition to the Saito clan.
"Ugly One, you mean to let me kill him?" Li Ming's brows furrowed.
In fact, with his strength, it was not much difficult to kill a monk who was on the verge of breaking through to become a primordial god. After all, today's strength is not weak in the scattered immortals.
Burst out with all his might, and it is not difficult to kill a primordial god consummation or even a newcomer to the earth.
However, the strength he actually showed did not exceed the extreme of a real person refining the air flow.
After all, he always has to keep a hand, and he has no problem dealing with the Saito clan.
But he also has reservations about the Demon Slayer Society.
Every time you make a move, your strength will never show half of your strength.
And half of his strength when he shot last time was equivalent to the level of Vientiane's extreme.
"Brother Mingdao, what are you kidding? That was the strongest genius of the Meng family after Meng Shi Yiqi back then. One-on-one, are you sure to deal with him? Chouyi Chuanyin smiled bitterly: "It's not just you, there are also strong people in my Demon Slayer Association--- of course, I don't know exactly who it is, how many there are, let alone tell you." ”
"What I said I know is that the number of strong people discharged in the meeting is absolutely enough, and it will be done at three o'clock in the afternoon in five days, and I hope you will join forces to kill Meng Juzhen."
"If he doesn't die, the disciples of the Saito clan will be very big hits to us if they step into the Genshin Dao people."
"I see." Li Ming nodded: "What kind of cooperation method?"
"When it's time to do it, the killer inside my Demon Slayer Society will naturally use the black-clothed magic robe, you'd better also reveal the token magic weapon, at that time, you can directly join forces to kill him--- if the enemy can't be defeated, then flee separately--- and when you make a move, my side will also be directly abandoned, and you won't have to look for me."
"That's right~" Chouyi hesitated: "Jiaji also participated in the battle this time,"
Li Ming showed a clear look.
Jia Er He knew that he had cultivated a very special discipline that could change his body shape and breath, and it was a supernatural power that changed into a specific appearance and breath, and his strength could only be regarded as average in Vientiane, but he was extremely good at disguise assassination.
Li Ming once cooperated with him and killed a real person in Vientiane together, and they also had some friendship with each other.
Chouyi told him the news, in fact, it was a bit of a rule-breaking, but Li Ming also understood that this was the other party's implication that there were many strong people in this operation, and the success was great.
"Not bad... By the way, this kind of task can normally be advanced in advance! ”
"Huh?! This task is worth four hundred and fifty great work, and you can withdraw it first... ”
"Then prepare the formation secret scroll of the Lei Yuan Immortals, which I valued last time." Li Ming said with a smile, now that he is comprehending the formation, he is on the original Beidou Dao and the Avenue of Stars.
After explaining the task and exchanging it for the treasure, Li Ming left the pharmacy, of course, in order to disguise it more likely, he also bought the ginseng.
Anyway, it costs some gold.
The real people of Vientiane spend most of their money on the Yuan Liquid--- but the Lei Yuan Small World Yuan Liquid is also very rare--- needless to say, the Saito clan took it away.
After a few turns, Li Ming's figure suddenly changed, turning into an old man's appearance.
Li Ming has more than one or two magical powers to change his body.
Soon, Li Ming's changed old man walked into the city in the west of the city.
And when Li Ming stayed in the mixed city and used his divine sense to detect, there were also two figures in the city.
Inside the Castle Lord's Mansion.
One family has been in the Meng family for thirty years, and the son of the family, who was also given the surname Meng, is receiving guests. Judging by his tone and movements, he looks like a housekeeper who is used to doing these things.
It's just that no one noticed that there was a flash of light in the old butler's eyes.
"Meng Ju, you recognize the thief as your teacher, since you have taken refuge in the Saito clan, then don't blame me for not talking about the friendship of the year!"
And on a hill less than fifteen miles north of Ruoqicheng, an old Taoist was preaching to the believers.
As a world where there is a real existence and cultivation, the status of such a 'Dao' master is naturally really lofty-even though Qingyu Old Dao is just a 'Purple Mansion Monk'.
After Lao Dao finished preaching to the believers, his eyes were half-open and half-closed, and two rays of light shot out.
"I finally caught up and practiced this [Blue Eclipse Divine Light] spell."
"Meng Ju, you are really a disgrace to the five major forces, let me Qing Lingzi use this spell to end your cultivation path."
