Li Yi's soul was wrapped in the flow of bright green data, entered an unformed body, and slowly began to conceive and rebirth.

On the unknown coastline, a tattered boy leans wearily against a broken ship, his eyes closed. If it weren't for the faint heaval on his chest, it would have made people think he was a dead man.

The waves are rushing, like a mourning for the dead, and it is also like a music to welcome the arrival of the strong. But the boy didn't seem to care about what was in front of him, and even though the churning waves might sweep him into the sea again at any moment, he kept his eyes closed.

After a long time, the boy finally opened his eyes, looked at the rough sea, and muttered, "I finally escaped." ”

Lily of the Valley City, a bustling coastal city, every year there are countless gold diggers come here to ask for a living, as if everywhere gold attracts one after another outsiders with a rich heart, the life of fine clothes and fine food, drunk gold is irresistible for everyone.

Some people succeed and live a life of drunken dreams without worrying about food and clothing, and many more people die, and there is not even a place to be buried after death. Although a large number of gold diggers die of exhaustion and starvation in Lily of the Valley every year, it does not reduce the number of people who come here to try their luck, and so many people die in Lily of the Valley every year, but it does not become empty, but becomes more and more crowded.

Today's Lily of the Valley City is no different from every day in the past, with busy traffic and bustling crowds all the time to show the congestion and prosperity of the city.

A tattered boy was standing at the gate of Lily of the Valley at this time, as if it was a city gate with a huge attraction.

He looked at the word "lily of the valley" on the city wall in a daze and was silent for a long time, his eyes flashing with a complicated light.

The breeze blew through his long dirty hair and his thoughts. After being silent for a long time, the young man slowly lowered his head and said to himself, "Li Yi, you will be on the road again here." With that, the young Li Yi walked into Lily of the Valley City.

People come and go on the street, and the sounds of buying and selling come and go, and it is very lively. Li Yi walked through it with great interest, although his face was calm, the surprise and blankness in his eyes revealed his identity as an outsider.

Pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, and even the ronin who makes a living on the street will make Li Yi feel novel.

"It's a wonderful world." Li Yi sighed as he walked.

The sun is thin, and before you know it, the sunset has dyed half of the sky red. Smelling the aroma of food coming from the restaurant on the street, Li Yi smiled bitterly and touched his stomach, only then did he realize that he hadn't eaten for a day.

Looking at the sunset on the horizon, Li Yi thought to himself: "It seems that I can only find a place to spend the night outside the city at night, I hope that I will be lucky and I can find something satisfying." Thinking of this, Li Yi walked quickly to the outside of the city.

But it seems that God is destined to create something unpeaceful for Li Yi, and Li Yi encountered a small trouble before he went far.

"Boy, don't you think you just bumped into me?" A voice came leisurely from behind Li Yi, and Li Yi looked back at the person who shouted him behind him with a little hesitation. This person was born with a fat head and big ears, and a sideways face, which is not a good thing at first glance. But he really didn't know how he bumped into this person, so he had to ask suspiciously: "Brother, did I bump into you just now?" ”

"Hey! Boy, I still want to admit it after hitting someone, uncle, I am weak, and I started to feel a little painful after you hit me, what do you say. Whether to pay the uncle for the cost of soup and medicine or apologize to the uncle, it doesn't take too much, three or five gold coins or kneel down and kowtow, uncle, I may not pursue this matter with you when I am happy. ”

Li Yi listened to the fat man's words, no matter how stupid he was, he knew that the fat man wanted to have fun with himself, after all, his ragged appearance didn't look like he could be rich. Thinking about this, Li Yi actually laughed, this fat man didn't know how to live or die, and he really couldn't cry or laugh.

Seeing Li Yi laughing, the fat man was a little confused, and scolded viciously: "Didn't the stinky beggar hear the uncle's words, what are you laughing at, do you have to let the uncle clean you up?" ”

"I don't have any money, and I don't want to apologize to you, if you know each other, you get away from me, I don't want to kill anyone." After laughing, Li Yi didn't seem to want to talk nonsense with this fat man, so he said this coldly, and his eyes when he looked at the fat man became extremely cold.

Hearing Li Yi's words, the fat man wanted to say something more viciously, but when he saw Li Yi's eyes, he felt that his whole body began to get cold, as if he was in an ice cellar. From Li Yi's eyes, the fat man seemed to feel that maybe he didn't talk any more nonsense, and this seemingly harmless young man would really kill him here. After holding on for a few seconds, he finally couldn't support it, and ran away without daring to say anything more, Li Yi's eyes made him feel fear from the bottom of his heart.

Looking at the fat man who fled, Li Yi's eyes gradually returned to calm. Thinking of the farce-like appearance of this fat man, the young man couldn't help laughing, but looking at the sky, Li Yi still lowered his head and was about to continue walking out of the city, but he was stopped by a voice before he took a few steps.

Li Yi turned his head impatiently to look at the person who shouted at him, only to see an uncle with a kind smile. Looking at this smiling face, Li Yi's impatient expression was put away a little, but he was a little more puzzled.

"Uncle, did you call me? What's the matter? ”

"Hahaha, it's the uncle who called you. The young man has just come to Lily of the Valley, is there no place to live when he goes out of the city so late? ”

"Well, I only arrived in Lily of the Valley today, and it's true that I left the city so late because I didn't have a place to stay."

"Hey! What kind of city do you go out of, outside the barren mountains and mountains, you are not afraid of letting wild beasts eat you when you go out at night. "Uncle is a person with a hearty personality at first glance, and he actually joked with Li Yi.

"Isn't it impossible?" Li Yi Li Yi said with a wry smile.

"Hehe, don't go out, young man. If you don't dislike it, you can live here uncle, and my little blacksmith shop can still live for you alone. The middle-aged uncle smiled kindly and proposed.

Only then did Li Yi realize that behind the uncle was a blacksmith shop, not big or small, and through the door, he also saw two long swords standing on the wall, which were very sharp.

Looking at the kind smile of the middle-aged uncle, Li Yi didn't feel anything wrong, and Li Yi thought that he didn't have anything to be plotted on, and after a little thought, he agreed to the other party's proposal, and said with a smile: "Then bother, thank you uncle." ”

The uncle waved his hand casually and said, "What's the matter, I'm just trying to make a scene." Then I started tidying up the shop.

After saying a few words of thanks, Li Yi followed his uncle to close the door of the blacksmith shop.

A coarse tea and light meal, but Li Yi devoured it. His stomach was empty, and it was this non-greasy food that was more suitable for satisfying hunger.

After dinner, the sky was already dark, and the middle-aged uncle lit a candle, and in the dim candlelight, Li Yi began to ask the uncle about some things he wanted to know.

Through conversation, Li Yi learned that this kind person who took him in was called Uncle Tony by the neighbors in the neighborhood, a blacksmith who had worked for half his life, and his wife who had no children and no daughters also died in the early years, and he was an out-and-out old bachelor. When he was young, he served as a soldier in another country, and later left the army because of his injury, and moved to Lily of the Valley ten years ago, relying on the money given by the state, he opened a blacksmith shop in the city, and he has reached this age in a blink of an eye.

Li Yi told Tony Sr. that he was tired of life in his hometown and wanted to come out to see the outside world.

He didn't know how far Li Yi's hometown was from this continent, he only knew that he had been floating on the sea for more than half a year before he saw a continent. During this period, it was extremely dangerous, and even the four companions who traveled with him died at sea, never having the opportunity to see the outside world. And he also survived countless storms with great good luck, and finally came to this continent.

Listening to Li Yi's description, the kind-hearted Uncle Tony was also embarrassed, although listening to Li Yi's story about the crisis was always lightly carried over, but even if he couldn't think of what the danger was, it must not be something that ordinary people could experience, Li Yi was able to float on the sea for half a year with a small boat, I have to say that it was really lucky to the extreme.

However, after sighing, the uncle found that Li Yi really didn't seem to be very sad about the deaths of his companions, which made him a little strange, but after a little curiosity, he didn't think much about it, and began to introduce Li Yi to the continent where Li Yi is now.

This is an extremely vast continent, called the Shengyuan Continent, according to Uncle Tony's description, Li Yi knows that this place is not known how many times larger than his hometown.

The Shengyuan Continent is all ruled by human beings, and there are three hegemon-level countries and several small countries on the continent, each of which is vassalized with a neighboring large country, thus forming a three-point situation on the continent.

The three great powers are the Tianlan Empire, the Atlantan Empire and the Say Empire, and the three major empires all rule the country by force, after all, this is a world that relies on strength, the weak eat the strong, and it is impossible to maintain the hegemony without absolute force.

And the sea area separated by the two continents is not wide at all, although there are only two real big showdowns between the two continents for thousands of years, but the rulers dare not take it lightly, because no one knows when the opposite continent will suddenly attack, if they can't resist it, they will definitely become prisoners of other races, this can't happen.

Therefore, for these reasons, the cultivation of the thirst for the strong in various countries has never been interrupted. The three most famous colleges on the Shengyuan Great Road are among the three empires, the Lily of the Valley Academy in the Tianlan Empire, the Enfa Academy in the Atlantan Empire, and the Puton Academy in the Say Empire. The secret war between the three major academies is actually equivalent to a secret war between empires, after all, the number of strong people is also the criterion for determining the strength of a country.

Lily of the Valley College is located in Lily of the Valley City, and under the aura of "Cradle of the Strong", Lily of the Valley City is also a famous city in the Tianlan Empire and even on the Shengyuan Continent. So when Uncle Tony heard Li Yi say that he didn't know about Lily of the Valley City, he was very surprised, after all, even people from other countries, even if they didn't know the imperial capital of the Tianlan Empire, they couldn't know Lily of the Valley.

Lily of the Valley College can be the pride of Lily of the Valley City, and of course it is not as simple as talking. Lily of the Valley College is a college that young powerhouses all over the country dream of entering, first of all, being able to enter Lily of the Valley College is an affirmation of their own strength, and then in the college, the tutors are some of the strong people who have been famous for a long time, and it is even rumored that there are saint-level powerhouses in Lily of the Valley Academy. Most of the students at the same level have good strength, and it is self-evident that they can learn from each other during the study period for the growth of strength.

Lily of the Valley College recruits students once a year in March, and the enrollment targets are naturally young and strong people, or young people who are cultivating alone or studying and becoming successful among students from all over the world, can come to participate in the enrollment of the college. Of course, the threshold of Lily of the Valley College is not ordinarily high. One must have cultivated the forces of nature before the age of twenty-five to be eligible to enter the academy.

When Uncle Tony talked about Lily of the Valley Academy, Li Yi also asked Uncle Tony what is called natural force cultivation and how the level of strength on the Lily of the Valley Continent is divided. Because Uncle Tony was a soldier, he also knows a lot about this, after all, this is not a secret.

On this continent, whether it is training the body to become a melee warrior or practicing magic to become a magician, as long as one can improve one's cultivation through perceiving nature and gradually using the power of nature in the process of cultivation, the power formed by the cultivator itself in the body is called the power of nature. Although the amount of natural force does not determine victory or defeat, it is definitely the easiest way to assess the level of strength.

According to the cultivation level of natural power, the strength has one weight to seven levels, of course, after surpassing these seven levels, you can reach a new realm-the realm of the sage, and the realm above the sage is the realm of the god. Although the realm of the Sage is difficult to reach, there has been no shortage of amazing and brilliant people who have reached this height for many years. However, the God Realm is really like a legendary existence, and the powerhouses of the God Realm on the entire continent may be counted on one hand.

As dinner was almost over, Li Yi also had a general understanding of some things on this Tianlan Continent through Uncle Tony's introduction.

After chatting about some topics, old Tony arranged for Li Yi to stay in a room, and then went to rest.

At this time, it was still dark, and the day in Lily of the Valley City had finally passed, but Li Yi's life here had just begun.

In the early morning, a ray of sunlight shone into the house from the window, and Li Yi, who had just woken up, got up suddenly, and subconsciously touched his side with his right hand, not knowing what he was looking for.

After seeing the surrounding environment clearly, Li Yi couldn't help but touch his nose with a wry smile and said, "It turns out that I am no longer there, I am in Lily of the Valley." ”

After putting on the shabby clothes, Li Yi said with a wry smile: "It seems that I have to go out and change my outfit for a while, and I can't be too shabby." ”

There was a sound of "clanging" outside the house, and Li Yi knew that Uncle Tony must have gotten up to work. Thinking of this kind middle-aged man, Li Yi smiled heartily and pushed the door out.

At this time, old Tony was vigorously beating a long sword, and a hammer flew up and down in his hand, and his strong physique always revealed masculine beauty.

"Uncle, I'm busy so early." Li Yi asked slowly, his voice was extremely magnetic, as if it had penetrating power.

Listening to the voice coming from behind him, Old Tony looked back with a little hesitation, and after seeing clearly who was talking to him, he suddenly put down the hammer in his hand and said to Li Yi with a smile: "It's Li boy, you see that I am used to living by myself, and I have forgotten that I have you as a guest." ”

"Uncle doesn't have to be so polite, I'm just an idler who eats mixed rice." Old Tony was so polite, Li Yi was a little embarrassed.

"Haha, everyone who comes is a guest. Today you go out for a walk and have a good look at Lily of the Valley City. As he spoke, Old Tony took out a few more gold coins and gave them to Li Yi.

Li Yi is not a rigid person, he took the gold coin gratefully, asked the approximate location of Lily of the Valley Academy, and walked out in a dashing manner.
