Immortal Palace Longevity

The storage ring flashed with a faint wave.

"It's the sect token. Could it be a message from the sect?"

Liu Yu's heart moved, and he took out the dark red, translucent sect token, and probed into it with a ray of spiritual consciousness.

"Return to the sect to discuss important matters quickly. The affairs of Yongsheng Market will be temporarily taken over by Zou's Jindan."

A short message was read out in an instant.

But what exactly did they discuss in the sect? The message did not say clearly, so Liu Yu could only guess secretly.

"Could it be that the five sects can't hold on and finally have to retreat?"

"Or is it for other reasons?"

Several thoughts flashed through his mind, but he didn't get a definite answer.

But what is certain is that it is definitely not a trivial matter, otherwise Liu Yu would not be recalled from the front line.

"No matter."

"In any case, as long as I don't stay on the front line, it's good."

"Let's go back to the sect first."

Liu Yu flashed this thought, and immediately decided to leave immediately, and got up and walked out of the cave.

Three months later, the beast tide continued to spread to the interior of each state, and Qingzhou also fell by more than half. At this time, it was only 500 miles away from Yongsheng Market.

But just 500 miles away, it stopped strangely and did not continue to attack.

For three months, Yongsheng Market was only harassed by some small beast groups, but the third-level demon cultivators never appeared again.

"Are you digesting the results of the battle?"

"Or are you waiting for something, gathering more forces?"

Liu Yu guessed in his heart that he didn't think the demon beasts would stop there, and their appetite was so easily satisfied.

At this time, it was like the eve of a storm, and the fragile defenses of the major cultivators' gathering places would sooner or later be attacked by the rain!

However, the human cultivators, who had different thoughts and fought openly and secretly, had no way to deal with it.

"If the sect decides to retreat, it is indeed a good choice. At least it does not have to face the most violent attacks of the monsters."

"If there are heavy casualties, even if the monsters are repelled, it is far from a victory."

"The overall interests of human cultivators may not be in line with the interests of the sect. This is determined by the geopolitical environment."

While thinking, he has come to the meeting hall in the market. With a move of his spiritual consciousness, he sent a voice transmission to inform Ku Yun and Hui Xin.

Not long after, the two hurried over.

"Daoyou Kuyun, Daoyou Huixin."

Liu Yu bowed and greeted politely, then said with a serious face:

"Liu received a message from the sect. I have to go back for something important. I am afraid I can't stay in Yongsheng Market any longer."

"The safety of this place depends on you two Daoyou."

"But don't worry, the sect's order mentioned that a Daoyou Zou from the Jindan family will come to replace Liu soon."

Although Kuyun and Huixin came to Qingzhou to garrison, they did not have to listen to the command of Yuanyang Sect, but directly obeyed the alliance or the original sect.

"In this case, I wish Daoyou Qingyang a safe journey."

"It's a pity that I don't have the chance to see Daoyou's style when he takes action."

Kuyun put his hands together and said with a smile.

From the guard monks, they heard the news that Liu Yu killed the four-winged black tiger, so they were curious about Liu Yu's strength.

After the golden elixir, the cultivator's ability to survive is greatly enhanced, and it is not easy to kill.

And thirty years ago, Liu Yu, who was able to kill a third-level demon cultivator, what kind of strength is he now?

Both of them were very curious.

"Hahaha."

"Liu was just lucky for a while."

"Two Taoist friends, the mountains are high and the road is long, see you again if we are destined to meet!"

With a faint smile on his face, Liu Yu stood up and bowed heavily, then walked towards the cave.

"I have a mission to accomplish, so I and my junior sister will not see you off."

"Daoist Qingyang, see you again if we are destined to meet."

Behind him, the voices of Kuyun and Huixin came.

Both of them speculated that Liu Yu might not come back after returning to the sect this time.

This Yuanyang Sect "genius" with a sixth-grade golden elixir is likely to be assigned a safe mission.

After all, the top-grade golden elixir is rare, and even in Rushi Temple, there is only one person in this generation.

For most Yuanying sects, a sixth-grade golden elixir is already a genius worth cultivating.

Regardless of what the two thought, after Liu Yu returned to the cave, he immediately ordered Wen Caiyi to start packing up the cave and prepare to return to the sect.

He had no regrets at all on this front line!

Soon, outside the Yongsheng Market, a green light shot up into the sky.

Liu Yu took his maid Wen Caiyi and the registered disciple Zhou Yunlong and flew straight to the sect.

As for some dead soldiers, they returned on their own.

These were his private soldiers, and no cultivator dared to detain or stop them.

It is worth mentioning that in the past thirty years, Zhou Yunlong's cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, and now he has reached the middle stage of foundation building.

This speed is normal for dual spiritual root qualifications.

After all, the "Holy Fire Sutra" is one of the best top-grade exercises, which pays great attention to the foundation, so it is naturally difficult to practice faster.

It is also because Liu Yu has not provided him with resources since the foundation building, otherwise his cultivation can be further improved.

But even so, he has reached the middle stage of foundation building.

…

Liu Yu easily crossed the distance of nine thousand miles in three or four hours with just his own speed.

“Caiyi, take Yunlong back to Qingyang Peak first and arrange a cave for her.”

In front of the mountain gate, Liu Yu said lightly.

“Yes, sir.”

Wen Caiyi immediately accepted the order, drove the magic weapon and took Zhou Yunlong to Qingyang Peak.

As soon as the two of them left, the storage ring began to vibrate again. Liu Yu took out the sect token and probed into it with a ray of consciousness.

"Two days later, go to the sect hall to discuss matters."

He put away the token expressionlessly. He was too lazy to guess randomly. The mana in his body turned slightly, and he turned into a beam of light and rushed to Tongtian Peak.

Since he returned to the sect, he naturally had to visit his cheap master and ask him for some information.

Given the status of the Li family in the sect, if there was any news, they should know much more than he did.

Not long after flying at full speed, the appearance of Tongtian Peak, which was like a jade pillar supporting the sky, came into view.

Liu Yu did not stop, and the light turned and rushed straight to the mountainside.

Flying all the way, it was obvious that compared to thirty years ago, the sect was much more depressed at this time.

The wars in recent years have caused heavy casualties among the sect disciples, and the consumption rate far exceeds the replenishment rate.

"Disciple Liu Yu, I'm here to see Master!"

Standing in front of Li Changkong's cave, Liu Yu's lips moved, using magic to transmit the sound into the cave.

But what he got in return was indeed a long silence.

Liu Yu frowned, and in his spiritual perception, there was no spiritual pressure of the Golden Core level in the cave.

Could it be that the cheap Master did not receive the message and was still on a mission outside and had not returned to the sect?

After ten breaths, a boy hurriedly came out and saluted:

"Report to Master Qingyang, the master is not in the mansion. He accepted a mission from the sect many years ago and has not returned yet."

"Hmm?" Liu Yu frowned and asked a few questions casually.

Through the inquiry, it was learned that about eighteen years ago, Li Changkong received a mission from the sect to go out.

As for where he went, naturally, a boy could not know.

Since the cheap Master was not here, there was no need to stay here.

He turned and walked in one direction, but did not leave Tongtian Peak directly.

Li Changkong is not here, but there is still Li Buyu, right?

Even if Li Buyu is not here, Liu Yu still has other Jindan elders he is friendly with, and he can ask for information.

This time is different from the past. With his own strength and potential, he has already established a firm foothold in the sect.

"Sister, Qingyang wants to see you!"

Standing outside the cave, Liu Yu triggered the formation and sent a voice transmission.

According to the last communication, when Xinyue City was broken, Senior Sister Li Buyu was seriously injured, and she should still be "recovering" in the cave.

"Junior brother, please come in."

Sure enough, not long after, a cold voice came.

Then, the formation and stone door were all opened.

Liu Yu smiled slightly and walked in slowly.

Simple and neat.

This was his first impression of Li Buyu's cave, but he didn't know if there was another world after only passing through the passage and the hall.

After entering the cave for more than ten breaths, Liu Yu met his senior sister again after about thirty years.

The woman was still dressed in silver, but now she was recuperating at home, and had changed from military uniform to long skirt.

Compared to the gentle temperament of other female cultivators, Li Buyu seemed a little "tough", perhaps because of the responsibilities she had to bear.

"Meet senior sister."

"It's been thirty years since we last met in Xinyue City."

"I heard that Xinyue City was broken and that senior sister was seriously injured, and I was also very anxious."

"It's a pity that I can't leave without permission because I have the important task of the sect."

"How is senior sister's injury?"

Liu Yu approached and bowed gently, asking.

"I understand what you mean, junior brother."

"You still have to focus on the sect's mission. At this time, one move can affect the whole body."

"As for the injury, it's not a big deal now. You just need to rest for a while."

Li Buyu smiled and said slowly.

The woman looked a little pale, as if she was really seriously injured.

Liu Yu nodded, and after chatting for a few words, he asked directly:

"I wonder if Senior Sister has received any news from the sect?"

"Has the sect made any big moves recently?"

Li Buyu was bewildered when he heard this, and it was obvious that he had not received any news from the sect.

"As the monsters slowed down their offensive, these are just some battles of average intensity, far from being big moves."

"According to my information, the sect has no intention of making any big moves recently."

"Could it be from the Seven Nations Alliance?"

The woman's eyes condensed and she guessed.

Liu Yu nodded slightly, his face a little unhappy.

The mission that even the Li family had no news about was most likely from the Seven Nations Alliance, and it required the cooperation of several cultivators from the Immortal Cultivation Countries.

Such missions are often more risky.

"No matter how difficult the mission is, can it be more difficult than the besieged Jin Ge City and Xin Yue City?"

"Junior brother, don't worry, maybe it's just a special mission, and you've been worrying for nothing."

Li Buyu comforted.

"At this point, I can only think so."

Liu Yu smiled bitterly.

It's no wonder he feels this way. In fact, this is what most cultivators think. The overall fighting spirit is relatively depressed.

After thirty years of beast tide, the situation has become very clear.

Even after the Seven Nations Alliance officially fought against the monsters, the situation did not improve much, and at most maintained a barely undefeated situation.

As for regaining lost territory, it is pure wishful thinking.

All cultivators know that the Hengduan Mountains are extremely vast, and there are countless monster tribes in it. What is in front of them is just the tip of the iceberg.

Therefore, seeing that the hope of victory is slim, after the initial enthusiasm has cooled, the attitudes of most cultivators have become negative.

Nothing else, or hope is too slim.

After finishing the business, the two began to reminisce about the past, talking about the dangerous situation of Xinyue City being trapped, and the demon cultivators who occasionally came to Yongsheng Market.

"Senior sister, goodbye."

Seeing that the time was almost up, Liu Yu stood up and bowed, refusing the other party's intention to send him off in person, and turned to walk out of the cave.

"Since there is no news from the Li family, then the possibility of news from the Yan family, the Ma family, etc. is even smaller."

"Anyway, we will get the result in two days, so we might as well go back to the cave to practice and wait."

After walking out of Li Buyu's cave, he flashed this thought.

Soon, a beam of light shot up into the sky and flew towards Qingyang Peak.

...

Two days later,

Qingquan Peak.

A beam of light came from the sky and landed directly on the mountainside near the top of the mountain. The light converged and a figure with black hair and black robes appeared.

It was Liu Yu!

"It's almost time."

Liu Yu had this thought in his mind, and walked directly into the sect's main hall, ignoring the low-level disciples who were saluting.

Because he attached great importance to this meeting, he came early on purpose, just to exchange some information with other cultivators.

"Grandmaster Qingyang"

The guards in front of the main hall bowed and saluted.

Liu Yu nodded lightly, raised his foot and walked towards the main hall. Before he stepped into it, he heard a whisper.

"It seems that some brothers and sisters did not receive the message?"

"Did Senior Brother Changfeng send this sect message?"

The puzzled voices of the Jindan fellow disciples came from the hall intermittently.

But the cultivator who was asked also shook his head in confusion, obviously he did not receive the message.

"Strange."

"If it was a task arranged by Senior Brother Changfeng, the news could not be so tight, and there was no news at all."

"Could it be the ancestor or the alliance?"

Some cultivators had such questions in mind.

Bai Yuxuan, Zhao Wuji...

Liu Yu had a blank expression on his face. As soon as he entered the hall, he saw many familiar figures.

There were only a few Jindan cultivators in Yuanyang Sect, and cultivators had a photographic memory, so it was almost impossible for them to not recognize each other when they reached the Jindan realm.

"Brother Qingyang"

"Brother Liu"

As soon as Liu Yu appeared, many old Jindan fellows came over to greet him, and even called him "brother".

In the world of cultivation, strength always speaks.

In the sixty or seventy years after forming the elixir, Liu Yu first defeated Bai Yuxuan and then escaped from death in Jinge City.

He also killed the four-winged black tiger in Yongsheng Market and repeatedly defeated the attacks of demon cultivators, including some demon cultivators in the third stage.

In addition, his elixir was of the sixth grade, and his potential far exceeded that of ordinary Jindan, and he was already famous.

In Yuanyang Sect, many cultivators who were optimistic about him appeared, thinking that he was likely to become a top-level Jindan like Li Changfeng, or even go further.

With all these realities in front of them, even the arrogant Jindan cultivators had to sigh and admire in their hearts.

Even though they had reached the Jindan stage many years earlier, they were willing to address each other as senior brothers at this time.

Some people even secretly guessed that Liu Yu's strength was not much worse than that of ordinary Jindan mid-stage cultivators.

"You are too polite."

"This is really embarrassing for Liu."

Liu Yu bowed to all four directions, and he was humble in his words, but he did not refuse.

Then, several people began to talk in detail about the recent situation.

In contrast, Zhao Wuji and Bai Yuxuan in the distance had a somewhat ugly look on their faces, and they seemed to be alone.

Originally, everyone was communicating normally, but as soon as Liu Yu appeared, most people flocked to him, and they were obviously more interested in him.

At this time, in the sect, the other party seemed like a rising star, and obviously had a bright future.

Rationally speaking, the two should also make friends.

But the two were arrogant and could not let go for a while when facing a cultivator who had formed a golden core later than them; In the foundation-building stage, both of them were top talents, and they had loyal fans wherever they went.

But when they reached the golden core stage, they found that they were not very noticeable among them and had a tendency to become ordinary.

In the eyes of other fellow golden core disciples, they were just "ordinary cultivators".

The huge gap made it difficult for the two to accept.

"......"

Zhao Wuji and Bai Yuxuan looked at each other, nodded to each other, and finally surrounded him with a smile on their faces.

Cultivating immortals is not only about fighting and killing, but also about human relationships.

At any time, becoming a "minority" is extremely disadvantageous.

"No one present has a cultivation level in the late golden core stage. What is going on?"

While talking and laughing, Liu Yu noticed this situation and his heart suddenly moved.

But when he thought about it, he couldn't figure out the reason.

While thinking, the smile on Liu Yu's face suddenly withdrew!

Just because he felt that a breath as big as a mountain and as big as the sea suddenly appeared outside the hall!

"Senior Brother Liu, why..."

A cultivator asked in confusion, but he also felt the breath halfway through his words and immediately turned his head to look outside the hall.

The breath as big as a mountain and as big as the sea appeared for only two short moments, and then the originally lively hall became quiet.

"This kind of oppressive feeling, Li Changfeng can't have it."

"This breath as big as a mountain and as big as the sea, only one person in the entire sect can have it."

"The only Nascent Soul cultivator - Ancestor Tianfeng."

In an instant, this thought flashed through Liu Yu's mind, and his originally casual expression became serious.

Soon, a tall figure stepped over the threshold.

This man was muscular, but his eyebrows and hair were all white, and he had a long beard that was half gray and half white, which fell down to his chin.

He wore a Taoist robe with a gray base and white edges, and there were two exquisite Tai Chi patterns on his cuffs. He looked more like a Taoist master than all the cultivators Liu Yu had seen so far.

Tianfeng Patriarch!

When the sect patriarch walked by, Liu Yu once again felt the long-lost difference in the essence of life.

Just a breath made his body tremble slightly!

Like a fragile lamb facing a predator at the top of the food chain.

Yuanying Patriarch!

"We pay our respects to the patriarch, may the patriarch live long and long!"

Liu Yu followed the crowd in saluting, saying long live the patriarch.

More than a dozen Jindan cultivators, even if they were only in the early and middle stages of Jindan, saluted and greeted together, and the scene was shocking enough.

For ordinary cultivators, this is the treatment they can never get no matter how hard they try.

"No need to be polite, my fellow apprentices."

In the hall, Patriarch Tianfeng had a gentle expression and raised his palm.

Immediately, a gentle force lifted the Jindan cultivators to stand up straight.

Afterwards, he did not speak immediately.

His bright eyes scanned the crowd, as if he was identifying something.

Book title: Kill the Villain!

Introduction: After waking up, Ling Feng found that he had traveled through time. Not only that, he also traveled through time into the heroine's book he wrote, and became a Yuanying peak cultivator that everyone envied.

But when he knew the original owner's identity, Ling Feng panicked. It turned out that he was the hardcore villain who only lived for less than thirty chapters!
