Martial Arts Immortal

swish swish

The group of people stepped on the fallen leaves, making a rustling sound.

ah!

One refugee fell down because he was so weak from being hungry for so long.

The road leading to the Lion Valley is very difficult. Not only do you have to be careful of poisonous miasma, poisonous insects and wild beasts in the Lion Valley, but just traveling is not easy.

The road is rugged and narrow, and some places are full of mud. If you lose your balance, you will fall and eat shit.

This place is not suitable for army-scale battles and is a natural protective barrier for bandits.

Give me a hand. We will all be part of the Jiuyou Sect from now on. We must help each other! said the leading man.

yes!

The strong man walked over and picked up the thin man who fell to the ground like a chicken.

The journey is a bit long. If these bandits traveled alone, it would only take about half an hour. But bringing along these troublemakers like the refugees slowed down the pace.

They walked for nearly two hours before arriving at the intersection of Lion Valley. Along the way, they met many companions who were bringing refugees from other places.

There was a sentry guarding the intersection.

Most of the bandits were familiar with each other, and after saying hello, they entered the valley.

Lin Zheyu stopped at the intersection of Lion Valley.

There are still people guarding us!

Lin Zheyu stopped, searched secretly, and found several people who were following him.

There were a total of four people following him, hiding in different locations, with a clear view of the road into the valley.

He pondered for a moment and took out the packet of medicinal powder from his pocket.

This is Ye Youlan, the one that was touched by the two Zhao family members back then. It is an upgraded version of Purple Begonia. It is more effective and harder to detect.

In the trap he set in the yard before, he used Ye Youlan. Ordinary people will soon fall into coma after inhaling a small amount.

By inhaling a small dose, a strong person in the Qi and Blood realm can rely on Qi and blood to relieve symptoms and stay awake, but it will affect their combat status.

The medicinal materials used to prepare Night Orchid are extremely difficult to find and no one sells them on the market.

According to Mr. Chen, if he sold the Yeyoulan powder he obtained from the Zhao family, it would fetch at least a hundred taels of silver.

This shows how expensive and rare Ye Youlan is.

Let's use Purple Begonia. Yeyoulan is not available on the market. Use a little, but a little less.

The mountain forest is filled with poisonous miasma and smoke, and the smell is pungent. Although Purple Begonia has a bit of a smell and its medicinal effect is weak, it is not easy to detect here.

Lin Zheyu thought for a while, put away the Ye Youlan, and took out the Purple Begonia.

Ye Youlan is extremely precious. It is effective even against those who are strong in the Qi and Blood Realm. It is a rare poison treasure and cannot be wasted here.

Shashasha~~

The breeze blew by and the leaves rustled.

Lin Zheyu identified the downwind direction and moved to the upwind.

He held his breath, grabbed a handful of purple crabapple powder, and scattered it into the wind.

Lin Zheyu didn't use too much dose. If he directly administered the dose to someone, wouldn't it mean that someone was lurking in secretly.

He wanted to sneak in unknowingly and see what was going on inside.

Lin Zheyu was extremely interested in the blood pill mentioned by the bandit.

It can directly elevate a peak Zang-Refining Realm warrior to the Qi-Blood Realm level, and the medicinal power contained in it must be extremely powerful.

If he could grab some, it would be enough for him to use for a while.

…

In the forest, the man responsible for watching shook his head, feeling a little dizzy.

Well, the poisonous miasma in the mountains and forests is getting worse today. I feel a little dizzy. If any of you brought extra antidote pills, give me one.

The man said to his companion not far away.

I'm a little dizzy too, Leng Hua, don't you keep antidote pills with you? Give us one. Another person said, his voice a little hollow.

call……

Come closer, I feel dizzy too and my body is a little weak.

Damn, everything is good in Lion Valley, but the poisonous fog is so annoying. Leng Hua took out a small bottle from his arms, poured a black pill and drank it.

While they were talking, Lin Zheyu saw the right moment, tapped his toes, and rushed into the valley.

He also encountered a lot of people following him along the way, but he managed to get to the valley smoothly.

The valley is large, lush and full of tall trees.

As soon as he came inside, he heard a bang-bang-bang sound, which was the sound of an ax chopping down trees.

Following the sound, Lin Zheyu saw many men working together to chop down trees.

They looked thin and dark-skinned, probably refugees.

Lin Zheyu quietly followed the man to the place where they built the wooden house.

He walked around and found many homeless people.

There are so many refugees, probably four to five thousand!

Lin Zheyu was secretly shocked that there were too many refugees gathered here.

With so many refugees, the daily food and clothing expenses alone are a considerable expense.

Stop what you are doing and gather in the square. The priest is about to start preaching. Everyone who goes there will get a bowl of broth!

A strong man came over and said to the refugees who were working.

Under the organization of the bandits, the refugees have a clear division of labor. Some build houses, some pick wild fruits and plant crops, some go hunting, and the bandits rob.

priest?

Nine Nether Sect?

Lin Zheyu was full of curiosity.

He got a lot of information from the conversations among the people.

Regarding the Jiuyou Sect, I have a vague impression in my memory.

When my predecessor was studying, I saw relevant information about the Jiuyou Sect in some unofficial histories.

The Jiuyou Sect has a history of thousands of years, and it believes in the Nine Nether Demon God who is said to have existed before the beginning of the world.

Before the founding of the Wei Dynasty, there were many sects in this land, and the Jiuyou Sect was one of the three most powerful sects.

However, with the founding of the Wei Dynasty, they began to rectify the sects, drive out other sects, and promote the system of gods headed by Huang Tiantai, the supreme emperor of ten thousand ways, and the golden tower.

From then on, these sects slowly disappeared, some went underground, some were hidden in the mountains, and some were simply lost in the long river of history.

Wage wars, gather refugees, accept believers, spread incense... The extraordinary people in this world will not follow the belief-to-god system, right?

Lin Zheyu muttered.

Based on the information he currently has, he feels that it is possible that the system of belief in becoming a god has defeated the system of cultivating immortals, and the system of cultivating immortals has been banned.

Cultivation of immortality has been classified as a forbidden skill.

But all this is just his speculation without any basis.

Lin Zheyu moved and followed quietly.

The square is in a forest in the Lion Valley. The trees in the forest have been cut down to form a huge square.

In the center of the square, a stage was set up. A man in black and red robes stood on it, with eight men in black and red robes standing on each side.

Behind them is a statue of a god and demon with three heads and eight arms, more than four meters high, carved from trees.

The priest stood under the statue of gods and demons, with his arms spread out and his face full of piety.

He slowly spoke about the teachings of Jiuyou Sect in a gentle tone.

The priest's voice was very loud and spread throughout the square.

Beside, there were more than a dozen strong men cooking in huge iron pots.

The fragrant aroma of meat wafted from the pot, and people kept coming from all over, making pious gestures and listening silently below.

The refugees listened very carefully.

After experiencing some hardships, their faith in the Wei Dynasty and the Wei Dynasty god Huang Tian had long ago collapsed. Now it is the Jiuyou Sect that gives them hope of living.

They began to give up their previous beliefs and believed in the Nine Nether Demon God.

Lin Zheyu quietly approached.

He used the Turtle Breathing Technique with all his strength, hiding his breathing, and hid in the woods not far away.

There were strong men patrolling all around. He couldn't get too close, but it was enough for him to identify the strength of the seventeen people above.

These people are all Qi and Blood Realm powerhouses!

The priest at the head had qi and blood several times thicker than his, and he was probably a powerful person with the third transformation of qi and blood.

One person has achieved the third level of Qi and blood transformation, two have achieved the second level of Qi and blood transformation, two have achieved the first level of Qi and blood transformation, and the rest have not yet reached the level of Qi and blood gauze.

So strong!

Lin Zheyu was a little surprised. There were so many famous Qi and Blood Realm experts who were probably much stronger than the three major families in Songyicheng.

No wonder he was able to conquer all the bandits in the Lion Valley.

As the priest explained the doctrine, the refugees began to worship and kowtow to the statue of the devil devoutly.

Lin Zheyu looked at the statue of the gods and demons. After staring for a long time, the statue came to life in his eyes, and a powerful demon god's shadow appeared in his field of vision.

hiss--

Lin Zheyu relied on his strong willpower to look away, panting heavily and sweating profusely.

It's so scary. Could it be that this demon is real?

Lin Zheyu's eyes were full of fear.

At that glance, he felt a vast and majestic momentum full of vicissitudes of life crushing towards him.

The pressure made him breathless, and he couldn't help but kneel down, and together with the refugees, he kowtowed to the statue of the devil.

There is something evil about this statue, which is beyond the reach of my current level.

Lin Zheyu suppressed the panic in his heart and did not dare to look directly at the demon statue.

He covered his ears with his hands and did not even dare to listen too much to the teachings preached by the priests.

The priest stood under the statue of the devil, and his voice seemed to have magic power, giving people the feeling that what I said was right and what I said was the truth.

If you listen to it too much, you can't help but start to respect the Nine Nether Demon God, and you can't help but want to worship him.

Lin Zheyu tapped his toes and retreated quickly. After more than a hundred meters, he stood and watched from a distance.

The Jiuyou Sect was full of mystery, which made him want to retreat.

Should we leave directly? Lin Zheyu secretly asked.

He pondered for a while.

Lin Zheyu weighed the gains and losses and decided to wait and see.

The priest's strength is only at the third level of Qi and Blood. If he is not good at leg skills, with Lin Zheyu's superb attainments in the Golden Goose Kung Fu and his strength at the first level of Qi and Blood, it won't be a big problem if he wants to escape.

It's just that the Jiuyou Sect is too mysterious, and the opponent's unknown abilities make him a little afraid.

Lin Zheyu stepped back more than two hundred meters and looked over there from a distance.

After about half an hour, the priest finished his speech.

Under the organization of relevant personnel, believers lined up to receive the fragrant broth.

After the priest finished preaching the doctrine, these men in black and red robes walked into the temple next to the square.

The temple is extremely tall and magnificent, and there is also a statue of a god and demon placed inside.

Lin Zheyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw them walking in.

Probably not discovered.

With so many refugees, it's impossible for everyone to know each other. I pretended to be a refugee and blended in to see if I could find any useful information.

Lin Zheyu said secretly.

He found a refugee's wooden house, found clothes he could wear in the house, and put them on.

Then he grabbed a handful of dirt and smeared it on his body, making his fair and tender skin look dirty, making him look more like a refugee.

Lin Zheyu looked at himself and found that they were not very similar, but he couldn't tell them apart unless he looked closely.

He found a hidden place, stored the knife and pocket on his body, and then blended in with the refugees.

The people in the square have not dispersed yet. They are all holding a bowl and drinking the broth happily.

Lin Zheyu also went over to ask for a bowl of broth and mingled with the crowd holding the bowl.

Standing in the square, look at the statue of the devil up close.

Lin Zheyu was mentally prepared to look away immediately if the illusion of the devil's shadow appeared again.

However, he stared at it for two or three minutes, but the previous illusion did not appear.

The demon statue looked sparse and ordinary, unlike before, as if it was coming to life.

Do supernatural phenomena only occur when worshiping and praying? Lin Zheyu guessed.

He mingled among the refugees and eavesdropped on their conversations.

They know very little about the Jiuyou Sect. They only know that if they join the Jiuyou Sect and believe in the Jiuyou Demon God, they can have enough food and live a good life.

How can I get access to blood pills?

Lin Zheyu looked in the direction of the temple and said secretly.

The dozen or so men in black and red robes never came out after entering the temple, and they don't know what they were doing inside.

It would definitely not work to rush in directly. Lin Zheyu didn't even dare to get too close.

The strength of the Three Changes of Qi and Blood, coupled with the possibility of possessing mysterious means, forced him to act with caution.

Lin Zheyu did not drink the broth and gave it to a skinny child.

More than an hour later, the refugees slowly left and went back to work.

There were not many people left in the square, some knelt on the ground again and continued to pray like the statue of the devil.

Lin Zheyu sat and rested pretending to be there, while patrolling bandits walked by from time to time.

At this time, a group of big men walked out of the forest.

The leading man had a loud voice, and before anyone arrived, he let out a hearty laugh.

Haha, we met a big fat sheep during this great harvest. Young ones, carry the things into the shrine!

The burly man laughed.

He waved his hand casually, and the younger brother behind him carried several heavy boxes into the temple.

Since joining the Nine Nether Sect, the things they grabbed, the prey they hunted, the refugees they took in, etc. can all be converted into contribution points.

As long as you have enough contribution points, various elixirs, treasures, and techniques can be redeemed.

Cao Wang, how much have you contributed now? A person came over and asked.

Including the harvest from this trip, it is estimated to be seventy or eighty. Cao Wang chuckled.

What he wants most now is to reach 100 contribution points, and then exchange for blood pills to increase his strength to the Qi and Blood realm.

The qualifications of these bandits are limited. If nothing unexpected happens, there is no hope of being promoted to the Qi and Blood realm in this life.

I didn't expect that the city would be breached, so I had no choice but to have such an adventure after becoming a bandit.

What about you, how much have you contributed? Cao Wang asked with a smile.

Only forty-three.

You have all picked up the refugees. Now the city guards are tightening their grip, and those caravans are also very strong, making it difficult to rob them. The man sighed.

How about you lend me your contribution points first, and I'll exchange them for a blood pill first to increase my strength.

After your strength increases, it will be easier to earn contribution points. Then I will lend them to you and redeem them for a blood pill. How about that?

Cao Wang suggested.

Okay, but you have to sign a letter in front of the priest, otherwise I won't be able to trust you. The man grinned.

Made, you can't believe my credibility? Cao Wang glared.

Oh, everyone is a bandit, no one knows who is who! the man said coldly.

Hey, don't worry, I, Cao Wang, is the most honest.

Since you can't believe it, we will make a written statement in front of the priest. Cao Wang chuckled and walked to the shrine impatiently.

In the Qi and Blood Realm, he was considered a top expert in the Qi and Blood Realm in his original city. He never thought that one day he could become such a strong person.

…

Lin Zheyu looked at the strong men and couldn't help but sigh when he saw them moving the looted things into the shrine.

The idea that just popped up came to nothing.

He also thought that this was the base camp of the bandits, and the things they robbed should be kept somewhere.

As long as he secretly investigates, finds the location of their treasure, and steals his vote, it will be enough for him to use it for a period of time.

I just didn't expect that the place where they would hide the treasure would be in the temple.

There were seventeen Qi and Blood Realm warriors inside, including a strong man with the third Qi and Blood Transformation. Rushing in would be like seeking death.

The strong man just entered the temple to exchange for blood pills? I hope he won't swallow the blood pills in the temple.

Lin Zheyu said secretly.

He silently stared in the direction of the temple.
