Sword Qi to the Sky

Chapter 174 Leaving
A red glow appeared in the sky, and the demon city gave people a warm feeling.

In the courtyard, Li Fan opened his eyes and stood up.

He stood straight, his body was like a sword, his back was like a dragon, and his whole temperament seemed to have undergone a transformation. When his muscles and bones were active, there seemed to be a sound of thunder.

Li Fan looked inside his body and it seemed as if there was a giant sword supporting his flesh and blood body. Every bone in his body was like a dragon-shaped sword.

This is his foundation.

"The foundation is established."

A smile appeared on Li Fan's face. He entered the fourth stage of cultivation, the foundation-building stage, and was no longer considered a low-level practitioner.

Having laid the foundation of the great way, it is considered to be of upper-middle level in any city of the Dali Dynasty, and can have a certain status. If one reaches the next level of Nascent Soul Realm, he can already become the patriarch of a family in a city.

Of course, if you go to see those top families, things will naturally be a little different.

"The foundation is like a sword and a dragon. It should be a top-notch foundation. Not bad." The old blind man said with a smile. Seeing Li Fan building the foundation, he was also quite pleased.

The boy is now eighteen years old. As he enters adulthood, he has laid the foundation for the great way. The child he has watched since he was a child has finally grown up.

Although Li Fan did not consider himself a teenager, in the eyes of the old blind man, his disciples were like children.

"Superior foundation?" Li Fan looked at the old blind man.

"There are strong and weak foundations. Although cultivators rarely mention it, if we break it down, the foundations of cultivators can be divided into good, medium and bad. However, cultivators are more concerned about the realm. Only those with outstanding talents pay attention to the quality of the foundation." The old blind man said, "Therefore, when the children of some big families are trying to reach the foundation-building realm, they will prepare rare treasures for them to absorb. They can be treasures or demon pills, and they must be the treasures that best suit their cultivation."

"This state is to lay a solid foundation for future practice, so it is quite important. However, for you, this is a matter of course. Even without the demon pill, you will still be able to build a superior foundation."

Li Fan nodded. People in the world care more about realm because it is not easy to cultivate to a high level. There are very few people who pursue the basic level. They are either gifted or have a prominent family background.

Therefore, those who practice cultivation will not mention the level of foundation, but only look at the realm.

“In addition, after a cultivator has established his foundation, he can still have the opportunity to improve the quality of his foundation with the help of treasures or demon pills. Therefore, the hearts of people in the cultivation world are unpredictable and they compete for interests and resources. The higher you reach, the more you will understand.” The old blind man continued.

This is true for the Foundation Establishment Stage, and also for the stages above it.

The higher the level of cultivation, the higher the pursuit. Some people rely on themselves, while others want to take shortcuts.

"Congratulations." A gentle voice came, and Qu Qingfeng looked at Li Fan with a gentle smile.

"Sir." Li Fan bowed politely.

“Xiao Fan can kill ordinary demons in the fourth realm when he is in the out-of-body realm. Now that he has built the foundation of the great way, with his powerful combat power, I am afraid he will be able to fight against any cultivator in this realm.” Qu Qingfeng said with a smile.

At the same level, the combat effectiveness is also different.

Judging from the combat power that Li Fan had displayed when he was at the peak of the Out-of-Body Realm, now that he has reached another level and achieved a great realm leap, he believes that ordinary cultivators in the late Foundation Establishment stage may not be Li Fan's opponent.

Of course, there are exceptions for the late Foundation Establishment cultivators who are also geniuses. After all, there are many talented people in the Dali Dynasty, and some of them can fight across borders.

"We won't know until we try it." Li Fan said with a smile. With his current combat power, even without the help of external forces, he should not be in danger below the Condensation Pill Realm.

If he could use the Tianxing Sword, he would be able to defeat anyone or any demon below the Condensation Pill Stage.

In this way, even without relying on the sword power in his body, he now has the capital to travel the world alone, provided that he is not discovered by the imperial court... After all, the imperial court would often send out top practitioners of the sixth or seventh realm to deal with him.

"How is your recovery?" Li Fan has been busy practicing these days and doesn't know how the old blind man is doing now.

"It's OK. We can move now." The old blind man asked, "Do you want to leave Yunmengze?"

"We've been here for so long, it's time to go back." Li Fan said.

When he went to Yunmeng City to practice, Li Fan originally planned to build his foundation in Yunmengze by hunting monsters. Now, he is indeed building his foundation in Yunmengze, but it is a little different from the 'Yunmengze' he had imagined at the beginning.

But the result is the same.

According to his previous thoughts, after building the foundation, he should leave Yunmeng City and continue his journey.

"Yeah." The old blind man also nodded.

"What do you think, sir?" Li Fan looked at Qu Qingfeng and asked with a smile.

"Yes." Qu Qingfeng also agreed. He had been walking in the Monster City these days and was familiar with the customs of the Yunmengze Monster City. He had some ideas in his mind and had discussed this matter with the Monster Saint.

However, the specific implementation will take time, and he also needs to go back to Bailu Academy to make arrangements.

In addition, it is said that there is still a war outside, which should be settled now.

In wars, those who die in the charge and fight are ordinary practitioners, but many times it is the interests of a small number of people that are satisfied.

"You're leaving?"

At this time, a clear voice came from the side. The person who spoke was Yue Qingqiu. She looked at Li Fan and the others, feeling a little reluctant. "Yes." Li Fan nodded: "We don't belong here, and it's time to go back."

Yue Qingqiu's beautiful eyes seemed to be thinking, and she said softly: "I will go with you too."

"Ah..." Li Fan was stunned.

"I will go out with you too. Lord Demon Saint has no objection to this and has allowed me to leave Yunmengze and visit the human world." Yue Qingqiu said softly.

Li Fan looked at her... indeed, she was quite courageous.

"Since the Demon Saint has no objection, that's fine. I can take care of you. From now on, you can practice in my Bailu Academy. How about that?" Qu Qingfeng looked at Yue Qingqiu and said with a smile.

He didn't mind accepting Yue Qingqiu.

He already had the idea of ​​opening an academy in Yunmengze. The admission of the Saint of the Demon Clan to the Bailu Academy might serve as a bond to resolve the life-and-death struggle between Yunmengze and the humans of Yunmengze for thousands of years.

At least, there shouldn't be any large-scale fighting.

As for the daily hunting behavior, it is impossible to resolve it.

Yue Qingqiu looked at Qu Qingfeng, then at Li Fan.

Li Fan nodded at her and said, "Sir, you are a teacher at the White Deer Academy, educating people. If you want to get familiar with the human world, you can first practice and study at the White Deer Academy and slowly understand the human world."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Yue Qingqiu nodded gently. She was not very familiar with humans and Li Fan was her only friend, so she would naturally listen to Li Fan.

"In that case, Qingqiu, you go and say goodbye to the Demon Saint, and say goodbye to us too." Li Fan said to Yue Qingqiu. Although he was kidnapped when he came here, he now feels like a guest of Yunmengze, so it is only right for him to say goodbye when he leaves.

"No need."

At this time, the voice of the Demon Saint came from the direction of the Demon Saint Palace: "I will let Bai Long accompany you and let the demon army evacuate. I also hope that you will not reveal the situation in Yunmengze. Otherwise, don't blame me for not cherishing the relationship during this period."

"It would be best if the Demon Saint could restrain the demons in Yunmeng Lake. We will not disclose the situation in Yunmeng Lake to the outside world. But if the demons from Yunmeng Lake invade Yunmeng City again, we will not be polite either." Qu Qingfeng responded.

"Please help me take good care of Qingqiu. If she has any problems, I will personally go to your academy." The demon saint continued: "And you, human boy, please don't let me down."

Li Fan: "..."

There is no such thing as disappointment between him and Yue Qingqiu.

However, he has already understood a little about the character of this demon saint. This thousand-year-old fox demon is very cunning, so he should just listen to her words.

"Your Majesty the Demon Saint." Yue Qingqiu bowed towards the direction of the Demon Saint Palace.

"Go, but you must remember that humans are cunning. Don't believe everything they say. You need to make your own judgment." The Demon Saint replied. Yue Qingqiu seemed to be thinking about something, and it was unknown whether he understood.

"Let's go."

Li Fan spoke.

The group nodded, and the old blind man moved his mind, and suddenly a huge sword floated in the air, and they stepped onto it.

The giant sword broke through the air, went towards the sky, passed through the clouds, and flew above the clouds.

…………

In the outside world, Yunmengze, and the vast and endless forest area, battles broke out everywhere.

In one place, in the jungle, there were cultivators and demons fighting each other. One of them was huge and extremely violent. He held an iron pestle in his hand and rushed forward recklessly. Wherever he passed, the blood and flesh of demons flew everywhere.

Not far from him, there was a flash of cold moonlight, and the chilling sword energy pierced into the body of a fourth-level demon, instantly causing the demon's blood to condense into ice, and then its body shattered and died.

Next to it, there was a snake demon also participating in the fight with the monsters.

Around them, there were many disciples from the Bailu Academy.

In the back, above the woods, are the elders from the Bailu Academy.

"Huang Xiong broke through the shackles and entered the Tiangang realm. With only his flesh and blood, he was invincible." An elder said, and the people next to him nodded: "Lu Yuan's sword is just as sharp."

"The monsters are getting stronger and stronger. Mr. Qu went deep into Yunmengze and we don't know what's happening to him now." They were a little worried. All the big monsters in Yunmengze had been killed, but Mr. Qu was nowhere to be seen.

"Li Fan was taken away by demons, and now he is probably in danger." They sighed and felt it was a pity when they thought of Li Fan's talent.

Ever since Li Fan was taken away by the demon, most people in Yunmeng City thought that it would be difficult for him to survive. Bailu Academy did not approve of Mr. Qu entering Yunmengze, but he insisted on going.

Hope there will be a miracle.
