King of Assassins

"Brother, you are out of seclusion!"

Seeing Gao Xuan coming out, Yuan Bao came up to him excitedly, but she soon discovered that Gao Xuan was a little different.

But she couldn't tell exactly what was different. It just felt like there was an extra layer of gauze on Gao Xuan's body, and he couldn't see clearly.

Not only is it a little more mysterious, but it's also a little more strange.

Yuan Bao is only sixteen years old and has little experience in cultivation. It's just that she and Gao Xuan were too familiar, and she immediately realized that something was wrong with Gao Xuan.

"Senior brother, you seem to be a different person?" Yuan Bao was a little worried and a little surprised, "You seem to be more handsome!"

Gao Xuan touched Yuan Bao's cute little head and said, "What has changed? Senior brother has made great progress in magical skills. Moreover, in order to avoid enemies, he specially adjusted his facial features."

The golden elixir condensed from the three energies of earth, water, and fire not only refines Gao Xuan's soul, but also reshapes his body with the power of the golden elixir.

The internal organs, muscles and bones are strengthened, and the impurities in the body are eliminated, making Gao Xuan's body stronger and stronger, and the whole body's external appearance is also clearer.

Especially the detailed adjustments to the facial features made Gao Xuan a completely different person.

Yuan Bao, who was extremely familiar with Gao Xuan, even knew Gao Xuan, but thought Gao Xuan had turned out to be particularly handsome.

Gao Xuan was only seventeen years old when he possessed this body, and his facial features had not yet been finalized.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to form the golden elixir, Gao Xuan consciously reshaped the facial features so that the physical appearance was 70% similar to the original body.

Now he is meeting Jiang Lan, and Jiang Lan will never recognize him.

Now Gao Xuan, not only the facial features and figure have changed, but also his temperament has completely changed.

The originally simple and clean temperament became as pure and clear as water. The two temperaments may seem similar, but in fact they are completely different.

Simple and clean like jade, pure and clear like spring water, flowing continuously and full of spirituality.

Beneath the pure and clear spring water, there are actually majestic and thick mountains, a peaceful and immovable land that carries all living beings in the mountains, rivers and rivers.

Gao Xuan's change was very astonishing, that is, Yuan Bao didn't understand anything, so he easily accepted Gao Xuan's statement.

He thought for a moment and handed Yun Guangsha to Yuan Bao: "Take this magical weapon and use it.

"

Speaking of this, Gao Xuan couldn't help but sigh. He was a poor man after all. Apart from a few of the most important magic weapons, he had no other spare magic weapons.

Yuan Bao didn't dislike it. She happily took Yun Guangsha and said politely: "Oh, this is not the magic weapon that sister Jiang Lan gave you. How can I take it?"

As she said this, she held Yun Guangsha tightly in her arms with her little paws.

Gao Xuan rubbed Yuan Bao's head in amusement: "If you say that, I'll take it back."

"Senior brother is true to his word. How can I take it back after giving it to me?"

Yuan Bao was frightened and hurriedly took a few steps back. This pair of cloud gauze was draped over her body, making her look like a fairy. She had been coveting it for a long time.

Gao Xuan felt a little sorry for Yuan Bao. He had never seen much of the world with his poor senior brother.

He went over and took Yuan Bao's little hand and said, "I'll give you this. If you don't have enough cultivation now, I'll give you some advice."

Gao Xuan integrated the three essences of Hou Tu, Tian Shui and Fierce Fire, and his level of cultivation was far superior to that of Zhou Huang's golden elixir.

Looking back at Yuan Bao, I immediately saw the key problem in her practice.

In fact, Yuan Bao has already reached the tenth level of Qi training, and is only one step away from building the foundation.

There is no panacea or master's guidance. It will take at least ten or twenty years of hard work for her to achieve foundation building.

Now, things are simple.

Gao Xuan led Yuan Bao deep into the cave and summoned Jiuyue Xuanming Tianyi to help Yuan Bao sort out his vitality.

Gao Xuan not only has high cultivation level, but also has a deep understanding of the body of the cultivator, which allows him to control the subtle vitality level and help Yuan Bao in the most natural state.

More importantly, he can guide Yuan Bao to concentrate on overcoming difficulties.

Yuan Bao's understanding of cultivation is too superficial and he can only practice step by step. He has no idea in which direction to exert force.

While Gao Xuan helped Yuan Bao channel and gather his energy, he also explained its essence to her, giving her a comprehensive and profound understanding of foundation building.

In just one day, Yuanbao completed the foundation building with the help of Gao Xuan. Gao Xuan also passed down the Yuanbao "Tianyi Zhenjing".

Foundation building can be done quickly. That's when Yuan Bao's cultivation is at its peak. All he needs to do is push in key places. Golden elixir cannot be achieved quickly, it still requires Yuanbao to practice step by step.

The tiger demon was easy to manipulate, so Gao Xuan threw a few animal elixirs and used thick earth energy to forcefully help the tiger demon complete the foundation building.

This method is a bit rough, but fortunately the tiger demon has rough skin and thick flesh, so it can withstand the torture.

After the tiger demon established its foundation, its combat effectiveness skyrocketed. It's much better than Lao Huang.

Gao Xuan wanted to go out to fish in troubled waters, so naturally he couldn't take Yuan Bao and the tiger demon with him.

The tiger demon is too eye-catching, and the ingot is too weak. Let Yuan Bao and the tiger demon stay here for a while.

The other party wanted to track him, and it was impossible to cause trouble for Yuan Bao.

Gao Xuan left several more talismans for Yuan Bao, two of which were Earth Escape Techniques. Use Earth Escape when encountering a strong enemy. There is also a concentric talisman that allows Yuan Bao to contact him from a distance.

This is actually a secret method recorded in the Tianyi Scripture, and its actual name is "One Thousand Rivers, One Water, and Ten Thousand Seas Come from the Same Origin." Wherever there is water, we can be connected instantly even if we are hundreds of millions of miles apart.

Gao Xuan's magic power is not that high, but with this concentric talisman, he can sense whenever Yuan Bao is in danger.

Of course, the most important killer is to stay on the tiger demon. As long as he confirms that something is wrong with Yuan Bao, he can temporarily control the tiger demon from a distance.

By condensing the golden elixir and integrating the three secret techniques of thick earth, heavenly water, and fierce fire, Gao Xuan naturally mastered some mysterious techniques.

After arranging the Yuanbao properly, Gao Xuan left the valley alone.

Jiuyue Xuanming's heavenly clothes were a bit eye-catching. Gao Xuan changed the black gold robe into pure jade white, took a whisk and a jade hair crown from the Qiankun in his sleeves, and hung a three-inch jade sword on his waist.

The Jade Sword Sect is a super large sect in Donghai Abbot State. It is said that there are millions of disciples in the outer sect alone. Most of them are children of princes and nobles from the abbot state.

It is precisely because the Jade Sword Sect has many disciples, and they are all wealthy people. These people like to run around when they have money and leisure.

Gao Xuan's jade crown and jade sword are all left behind in the Suzaku ring. They are also foundation-building level magic weapons. It's not very useful, but it's more than enough to pretend to be a Jade Sword Sect person.

With such a look, coupled with Gao Xuan's plastic surgery, he is really a handsome young man, as rich as jade.

Gao Xuan activated the three-inch jade sword, and a ball of jade-colored sword light surrounded him and soared into the sky, leaving a long jade-colored rainbow in the sky.

Yu Jian flew very fast. Gao Xuan came out in the morning and arrived at Hukou Ghost Market at noon.

Hukou Ghost Market is the largest ghost market in Penglai Prefecture. The ghost market here is different from other ghost markets in that it is open day and night and never closes.

Gao Xuan entered the Hukou Ghost Market through the entrance of a large locust tree, and his eyes suddenly became lively.

The criss-crossing long streets and various buildings are connected together, making it look like a lively market town.

At the door of shops on both sides of the street, there are waiters shouting hard. There are groups of cultivators coming and going, shoulder to shoulder. The lively scene was like arriving at an internet celebrity tourist attraction.

Compared to the ghost market Gao Xuan went to before, this place is more than ten times larger.

Gao Xuan glanced over and naturally saw the Wanbao Pavilion in the middle of the city. No matter which ghost market it is, Wanbao Pavilion will definitely occupy the best location and have the most impressive storefront.

Wanbao Pavilion claims to be a branch of Wanbao Pavilion wherever monks gather. Semicolons are everywhere in the world.

This statement is highly mysterious and cannot be verified, but it is said that there are Wanbao Pavilions everywhere in the ten states of the East China Sea.

When it comes to getting information, Wanbao Pavilion is naturally the best place.

Gao Xuan stopped at the entrance of Wanbao Pavilion. Without him having to say anything, a waiter naturally came over to greet him attentively.

If not for anything else, Gao Xuan's gentle and jade-like appearance is worthy of greeting. No matter how well he looks, he is at least a master of foundation building.

"Master Immortal, please come in quickly. Today is a good day for the auction. There are all kinds of rare treasures, secret magic weapons, etc..."

Gao Xuan nodded and followed the man into Wanbao Pavilion.

The interior space of this Wanbao Pavilion is wide. After passing through the first hall, there is a wider hall at the second entrance. It is divided into two floors and filled with seats.

At this time, there were more than a hundred people inside, and it looked lively.

When he arrived at the door of the hall, the clerk bowed to Gao Xuan and grinned: "Master Immortal, in order to prevent random bidding, you must pay 500 low-grade spiritual stones before participating in the auction. If you don't buy anything, fifty spiritual stones will be deducted..."

The guy didn't say anything before because he was afraid that Gao Xuan would be scared away. Now that we are here, the monk always puts on a pretense. Maybe he was despised by a little guy.

If Gao Xuan hadn't gone in to hear the news, he wouldn't have been tricked by this little guy.

He casually took out a medium-grade spiritual stone and gave it to the buddy. One medium-grade spiritual stone can be exchanged for one thousand low-grade spiritual stones. Gao Xuan inherited more than 5,000 pieces of middle-grade spiritual stones from the Liehuo and Tianshui families. It sounds like he has a lot of money.

You must know that this is the wealth accumulated by Liehuo and Tianshui for hundreds of years. When it comes to Houtumen, there are thousands of low-grade spiritual stones in total. It shows how miserable it is.

After receiving the middle-grade spiritual stone, the clerk's eyes lit up again. This is really a rich man.

The waiter quickly led Gao Xuan to a separate seat in the back row. From this position, Gao Xuan could see other people, and if they wanted to see him, they would have to turn around. There are screens on the left and right, which makes it a good place.

As soon as Gao Xuan sat down, someone brought tea and water, placed a fruit plate, and presented the auction list.

The roster is also engraved on a piece of white jade. Using spiritual consciousness to stimulate it, the roster recorded in the white jade can turn into a phantom and emerge.

It operates a bit like a projector, but the threshold is a bit higher. Only practitioners can inspire it with spiritual consciousness.

Gao Xuan took a casual look and saw that the final auction item was actually a spiritual weapon: a white jade gourd.

The white jade gourd can turn water into high-quality wine. Another thing is that it can hold an almost unlimited amount of water, or liquids such as wine.

To say it is useless, the white jade gourd is somewhat useful. To say that it is useful, such a spiritual weapon is almost a plaything. The starting price is just one thousand medium-grade spiritual stones.

Gao Xuan shook his head. There was nothing wrong with buying so many spiritual stones. Who would buy a plaything? I'm afraid there are not many people in Penglai Prefecture who can be so extravagant.

But for some reason, an idea came to his mind: This gourd seems to be quite fun... and it matches his current outfit.

Gao Xuan hurriedly suppressed this idea, feeling a little sorry for Zhou Huang and the others by spending money indiscriminately.

The auction hasn't started yet, so the cultivators from the southeast, northwest and northwest inevitably have to communicate with each other.

Gao Xuan sits here mainly because he wants to hear news from all parties.

Most of the cultivators sitting here are casual cultivators from various places. No matter what his cultivation level is, he is very experienced and knowledgeable. Gao Xuan listened with great interest when talking about various anecdotes.

As the group of cultivators talked, they naturally turned to the battle between the Xuanzhen Sect and the Tianji Sect.

After all, these two factions are the bosses of Penglai Prefecture. The conflict between the two bosses has a huge impact. Many practitioners have been greatly affected.

"The Xuanzhen Sect has been really aggressive recently. I heard that the Tianji Sect has killed two Jindan..."

"More than that, I heard that the Five Elements Sect was destroyed by the Xuanzhen Sect. A group of sect disciples were forced to join the Xuanzhen Sect. Those who refused were killed on the spot. Master Liehuo Zhou Huang also died on the spot. ,It's too awful!"

"It's so miserable..."

A group of people shook their heads and sighed. After all, the Five Elements Sect is one of the three sects and six sects. It has been passed down for thousands of years. It will be destroyed if it is said to be destroyed.

Many cultivators sighed when they talked about it. A large sect like the Five Elements Sect could be wiped out at the drop of a hat, and this group of small sect casual cultivators did not know how to protect themselves in such a turmoil.

There is no other way. A group of people came to Hukou Ghost Market to avoid the limelight.

"I heard that Li Buyi of the Xuanzhen Sect has become the real Yuanying, and that the fifth-level Yuanying has somehow found the Xuanyang Sword left by the founder of the Xuanzhen Sect. Now he is known as the number one swordsman in Penglai."

"Is this what they Xuanzhen Sect blew up themselves? Penglai is the number one sword cultivator, so where should the Wanjian Sect put it?"

"Don't tell me, the Wanjian Sect really didn't say anything."

"Will the Tianji Sect really be destroyed if it is such a big sect?"

"Who knows?"

"There is always a feeling of precarious situation..."

"The two major sects must decide the winner quickly, don't worry about it!"

A group of practitioners said something to each other, discussing in groups of three or five.

Gao Xuan listened for a while and figured out the general situation.

However, I don’t know how many hands this news has been passed around, that is, just by listening.

While everyone was talking lively, a group of people walked in outside the gate, and a young man in the lead suddenly shouted: "Noisy, what we Xuanzhen Sect does is yours to discuss!"

Everyone was startled and turned their heads to look. I saw the leading young man wearing a black Taoist robe, with a handsome face, and a black mark like an eye painted on his eyebrows.

The way he was dressed and the mark between his eyebrows was that of a true disciple of the Xuanzhen Sect.

The Xuanzhen Sect has always been arrogant and domineering in Penglai Prefecture. Many casual cultivators have dealt with the Xuanzhen Sect. As soon as they saw this person, no one said anything.

The leading young Taoist sneered, "I might as well tell you straight, my master Xuanyang Zhenjun will have a showdown with Tianji Sect leader Wang Haichan at Four Seasons Lake on the fifteenth day of next month."

Everyone was in an uproar after hearing this.

Wang Haichan is the Nascent Soul Lord who is famous all over the world. He has been enlightened for more than 600 years. Xuanyang Zhenjun Li Buyi only realized the Nascent Soul this year.

Li Buyi actually has the courage to challenge Wang Haichan?

Needless to say, both sides are going to fight to determine the winner. This saves trouble.

When everyone looked at the young Taoist again, their eyes were filled with awe. This is the disciple of the newly rising True Lord Li Buyi. Now he is in great power and no one can challenge him.

The young Taoist was so proud that he led a group of people to sit in the front row.

The surrounding guests hurriedly got out of the way, but no one dared to mess with this one.

Gao Xuan also showed interest, and this guy came just in time. He can't fight against Li Buyi. This guy is just a foundation builder, and he dares to show off, so let's use him to gain popularity and start a fight!
