Evergreen Immortal.

Chapter 77 Don’t build a dangerous wall
boom!
His five fingers were slightly bent like eagle claws, and the hard rock shattered into pieces in Li Rui's hands, and finally turned into a pile of powder with a crisp sound.

"A thousand pounds of force."

Now I am considered to be a capable brickbreaker.

Li Rui estimated that after reaching the Golden Bone level, his strength would finally reach the 1,000-jin mark.

The strength has doubled.

This is a sign of the great success of bronze bones.

Most martial artists would try to break through the Liujin realm when they reach this stage, but for Li Rui, who has martial bones, this would certainly not be the limit.

Now that he has all the resources, aptitude, and skills, of course he has to practice to the Jade Bone realm.

Only by laying a solid foundation in the early stages can you go further.

If you are only satisfied with a seventh rank, it would be a waste of God's gift, and it would be a waste of your martial arts bones.

No matter how good your talent is, it cannot be achieved overnight. You must practice hard.

Li Rui looked at the empty wooden box.

Just now, in order to break through the golden bones, I took the last bone-strengthening pill.

I originally thought it would last at least two months, but I didn't expect it to be finished in just seven days.

Of course, the progress is also quite gratifying.

"More pills are needed."

Alchemy room.

The red flames beneath the alchemy furnace made crackling sounds like wood oil bursting, creating a fiery scene.

Li Rui and Jiang Cheng looked at the alchemy furnace nervously.

"Wait, wait."

"ten."

"Nine."

"one."

"It's done!"

Almost at the moment Li Rui finished speaking, Jiang Cheng rushed to the alchemy furnace, opened the lid and took out the pills inside.

Instantly, the fragrance of elixir filled the air.

"The medicinal strength has increased by at least 40%, almost reaching the level of a seventh-grade elixir."

After Jiang Cheng confirmed the grade of the elixir, he found it incredible.

During this period of time, his alchemy skills have greatly improved.

This is inseparable from Li Rui's exquisite control of the heat.

"This is your portion of the elixir."

Jiang Cheng took out seven pills from more than ten pills and handed them to Li Rui.

Improved cooperation mode for two players.

Li Rui provided some medicinal materials purchased on the black market, and then helped Jiang Cheng to make the elixir. After the elixir was made, he took away the elixir of equal value and left the rest in the pharmacy.

This way.

Li Rui can get elixirs of richer varieties and higher grades, and Jiang Cheng can also find a few more elixir recipes for Li Rui to improve his control over the temperature.

Win-win.

Li Rui got the elixir and happily prepared to leave.

But Jiang Cheng had no intention of leaving and started another furnace of ordinary pills.

After this period of influence.

Li Rui also had some understanding of the recipe. From what he heard, it should be a pot of medicine for treating knife wounds.

This is the third batch today.

He keenly sensed something was wrong.

Medicine for treating knife wounds is often used in places like the Tiandi Alliance where fighting and killing are frequent, but the amount used today is too much.

"Something must have happened in the branch, otherwise they wouldn't suddenly need to stockpile so many healing medicines."

Li Rui asked tentatively: "Xiao Jiang, who wants to make these pills?"

Jiang Cheng was obsessed with alchemy, and his mind was simple. He answered without thinking, "It was something that the Sword Master personally ordered. He said that we will be dealing with the Ghost Sect soon, and it will be useful soon."

"really."

Li Rui narrowed his eyes slightly.

He had heard the news before that County Magistrate Zhang had summoned all the important figures in Qinghe to meet and join forces to deal with the Ghost Cult.

It looks like we're going to take action soon.

"How about I just pretend to be sick?"

Li Rui pondered.

Because of his old age, Dao Xiong did not let him participate in the actions of the Guiming Sect.

But there is no guarantee that the old issue will be brought up again due to lack of manpower.

"You wouldn't ask a sick old man to fight to the death." Li Rui was sick.

I caught a cold and stayed in bed for several days.

During this period, Wu Tu and Zhang Yang both came to see him and confirmed that he had indeed caught a cold.

A warrior may be physically strong, but that doesn't mean he won't get sick. In this world, warriors can also get sick, and will die if they are not treated for a long time. The eighth grade is far from being immune to all evil.

Pretending to be sick will be discovered sooner or later.

Once the news gets to Dao Xiong or even Tang Sheng, things will be very troublesome.

Li Rui caught a cold.

But after staying in the ice cellar for four days and four nights, he finally got what he wanted.

A little physical pain can buy you no risk.

He felt it was worth it.

as predicted.

Just a few days after he fell ill, Dao Xiong summoned the Qinghe branch to encircle and suppress the Guiming Sect. This time, all the deacons and hall masters were mobilized.

Originally Li Rui was also included in the list.

But after Dao Xiong heard that Li Rui was ill, he came to Li's house to take a look.

Later, considering that Li Rui was indeed old and ill, it was indeed inappropriate.

Moreover, if you think about it carefully, the encirclement and suppression of the Ghost Cult is a confidential matter, and very few people know about it. It is impossible for Li Rui to get sick at the right time.

Just give up.

Li Rui certainly understood that Dao Xiong came to visit him on the surface, but in fact he wanted to personally confirm whether he was faking illness.

And if he was in his prime, he would not be able to escape the cold even if he really caught it.

This is the effect of the two combined.

“Being older does have its perks.”

That night.

The Qinghe branch of the Tiandi Alliance took action.

Tianyitang had too few people, so Liang He and Zhou Shulin did not go, but a lot of people were drawn from the black market.

Li's house, in the room.

"Old Li, you are so old now, don't run around all day, your body is not as strong as it used to be."

Yang Yong came in with a bowl of hot soup.

"Come on, drink it."

Li Rui took the hot soup and started drinking it from the bowl.

He did not tell anyone about his deliberate illness, so Yang Yong and Wang Zhao did not know the inside story. Besides, it was normal for an old man to get sick. It was rare for an old man to be as energetic as Li Rui before.

Yang Yong looked worried.

He was really afraid that Old Li would die before him, and then the last person he could talk to would be gone in the world.

When people are old, the most fearful thing is loneliness.

"Where's Xiaozhao?"

Li Rui asked.

I haven’t seen Wang Zhao for half a day.

Yang Yong: "In the kitchen, the guy has been simmering the medicine soup for five hours without even closing his eyes."

"He's a thoughtful child."

Li Rui smiled faintly.

Although Wang Zhao is not a smart kid, he is sincere and willing to endure hardships. Which elder would not like him?
Li Rui drank the medicine.

He picked up the "Dadong Sutra" beside him and started flipping through it.

It is too eye-catching to practice martial arts right after you get sick. It is better to just read Taoist scriptures.

Read a book overnight.

The dim candlelight flickered. Fortunately, Li Rui had enough money for the lighting, otherwise the long night would have been hard to endure.

Unknowingly.

He fell into a deep sleep.

Like a dream.

There was a thick white fog that could not be dispersed before my eyes. In the distance, I could vaguely see a corner of the palace's eaves. There seemed to be dragons and phoenixes dancing in the clouds and mist, and the sounds of immortal birds and beasts laughing could be heard in my ears.

Curls of green smoke rise, and strings fall in front of the bamboo stage.

What a beautiful picture of fairy mountain scenery.

An old Taoist sang softly:

"Resting the essence and breathing nourishes the spirit, and the essence nourishes the Dantian and the qi nourishes the body.

If someone learns this technique, he will become immortal."
