The Demon-Slaying Grandmaster

Chapter 492 Asking for a visit

As for Daji, she listened to whatever Li Jingxiao said.

Even if she were told to go east, Daji would never go west.

But Li Jingxiao ignored Shi Ji's words this time.

They forced her to cultivate the "Great Celestial Immortal Technique" with Qiongxiao, Caiyun, and Daji.

Although the Shangqing Way of the Tongtian Sect Leader is indeed more promising.

But Shi Ji and Qiong Xiao are not like Li Jingxiao, who has cheat codes.

It takes thousands, tens of thousands, or even tens of thousands of years to reach the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm.

What's the point?
Shi Ji could only sulk and purse her lips in response to Li Jingxiao's overbearing behavior.

In the end, he relented and agreed with only a slightly reluctant expression on his face.

This woman knew very well that before she followed Li Jingxiao, she was just a Golden Immortal.

After following Li Jingxiao, a Nine-Turn Golden Pill helped her break through from Golden Immortal to Taiyi Golden Immortal.

I ate three more ginseng fruits yesterday, and my cultivation and magical power increased by 10% or 20%.

Therefore, the martial arts techniques that one's own husband brings out must be extraordinary divine skills.

He looked reluctant, but in his heart he had already agreed.

That's why he's so honest.

Seeing that even Shi Ji, the eldest sister, had backed down, Qiong Xiao glared at Shi Ji and naturally dared not have any objections.

Moreover, Qiongxiao herself was never very enthusiastic about cultivation.

I didn't agree before because I thought switching cultivation methods would be too troublesome.

Now that Li Jingxiao has taken a hard line, the woman, after backing down, suddenly feels that having a quick way to master a skill isn't such a bad thing.

Unfortunately, Daji and the other three were not Sun Wukong. It took the Monkey King three years to cultivate the "Great Celestial Immortal Technique" to perfection before he graduated.

If Daji and her four companions wanted to cultivate themselves to the level of Sun Wukong, it would probably take them ten times longer.

Fortunately, although Li Jingxiao did not major in this technique, the techniques that appeared in the game only required him to click to learn.

That way, it will be completely imprinted in Li Jingxiao's mind.

It would be very suitable to have him teach Shiji, Caiyun, Qiongxiao, and Daji.

Moreover, because they are husband and wife, he teaches her many things step by step, and the details of his explanations are clearer and more meticulous than when he taught Nezha.

If you still can't learn even if your master feeds you, then you might as well give up on cultivating immortality.

Moreover, Li Jingxiao farms Zhenyuanzi every day, although he doesn't get ginseng fruit every day.

However, the drop rate is about 40-50% for every ten attempts.

The drop rate is actually quite high.

Li Jingxiao had enough ginseng fruit to feed Caiyun and the other three people every day, which would amount to dozens more each month.

In just one month, Shi Ji's magical power doubled.

Of the four women, Daji, the weakest, had her power increased by 1.5 times.

This made the four women not only more attentive but also more enthusiastic when cultivating the "Great Celestial Immortal Technique".

As for Li Jingxiao himself, his need for ginseng fruit was not that strong.

However, if you eat one every day, your magical power will double in about ten months.

But he didn't get to enjoy his carefree life in Li Garden in Chentang Pass for long.

Early that morning, Li Jing personally came to the door, bringing with him an imperial edict and an envoy from King Zhou of Chaoge.

Upon hearing that it was King Zhou's decree, Li Jingxiao immediately decided to refuse without hesitation.

They might even choose to stay indoors and avoid seeing anyone to prevent getting into trouble.

However, Shiji, Caiyun, and Qiongxiao were, after all, disciples of the Jie Sect.

Within the Jie Sect, many disciples served in the Yin-Shang dynasty due to the influence of Grand Tutor Wen Zhong.

Therefore, among the four women, Daji was the one who disliked the Yin Shang dynasty the most.

However, Daji was, after all, the daughter of Su Hu, the Marquis of Yizhou. Although she hated King Zhou and the Shang Dynasty, she had to consider her parents and elder brother.

That's why he didn't say anything and agreed to Li Jingxiao's decision to stay at the door and not see him.

However, the woman's expression of disdain for the so-called 'angel' was completely undisguised.

The reason why Chaoge issued an imperial edict to invite Li Jingxiao was because of his capture of Yuan Hong last time.

He used the supernatural power of "manifesting the heavens and the earth".

It is ten thousand feet high, dozens of times larger than Chentang Pass.

Its towering figure reaches into the clouds; it's hard for such a colossal giant not to become famous.

Therefore, after Huang Feihu, Shang Rong, Bigan, Jizi, Weizi and other important ministers of the Shang Dynasty learned of this, it is unknown who first suggested that Li Jingxiao go to Beihai to assist Grand Tutor Wen.

The rebellion in Beihai has kept the Shang Dynasty at war for almost 10 years, and they still haven't been able to quell it.

The enormous logistical, manpower, and financial pressures had already become unbearable for the Shang Dynasty.

The so-called Beihai Rebellion was, on the surface, a rebellion launched by Yuan Futong.

Moreover, he could rally a large following and unite seventy-two feudal lords to rebel against the Shang dynasty.

In reality, it was nothing more than a war between humans and demons.

Grand Tutor Wen became a disciple of the Golden Spirit Mother, a direct disciple of the Jie Sect, in his youth.

The Golden Spirit Mother was a direct disciple of the second generation of the Jie Sect and the head of the female immortals.

During the Battle of Ten Thousand Immortals, he single-handedly defeated Puxian Daoren, Manjushri Guangfa Tianzun, and Cihang Daoren, leaving them completely bewildered.

Wen Zhong studied under the Golden Spirit Mother for fifty years before descending the mountain to assist Emperor Yi.

He is proficient in the transformations of the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. He wields a pair of whips, one male and one female, and has three eyes on his head.

The eye in the middle is supernatural, emitting several inches of white light, capable of discerning the wicked from the loyal, and the black from the white of people's hearts.

Wen Zhong's Taoist magic and supernatural powers are not ranked highly in the Investiture of the Gods.

But to kill him, you have to lure him into Jue Long Ridge.

Having entered a deadly place, he died under the Heavenly Divine Fire Pillar forged by Yun Zhongzi.

So, it was very easy for Wen Zhong to kill some demons and monsters.

Moreover, when Wen Zhong conquered Beihai, he had the four generals of the Mo family, Deng Jiugong, and Deng Chanyu, father and daughter, under his command.

There were also some disciples of the Jie Sect and a full 50,000 elite soldiers.

But these troops and generals were stuck in Beihai for ten years.

To say that Yuan Futong and the seventy-two warlords had no power to support them is utter nonsense.

In the original story, Wen Zhong quelled the rebellion in Beihai and returned to the capital in triumph.

In front of King Zhou and all the officials, he personally stated that his main task during his time in the North Sea was to "eliminate monsters and demons, and then behead the traitors."

Beihai has been a gathering place for demons and monsters since ancient times.

Even many members of Chiyou's tribe, who were defeated in the war, fled to the North Sea.

In Journey to the West, the Nine-Headed Insect was defeated by Yang Jian and the Celestial Hound.

When they fled to the North Sea, Sun Wukong stopped Yang Jian and advised him not to pursue them.

To avoid attracting a powerful demon.

In Journey to the West, there are many people more powerful than Sun Wukong and Yang Jian.

Even the Buddha himself was reluctant to mention the North Sea and the Northern Continent.

It is clear that even Buddha has no jurisdiction over these two places.

Only the True Martial Emperor, who fought his way through the Northern Continent, became famous throughout the Three Realms.

He was granted the title of Emperor and, incidentally, was also tasked with guarding the Northern Continent of Luzhou.

That's why Sun Wukong was so obedient when he met Zhenwu the Great.
-
Li Jingxiao had taken Daji to the North Sea before, but before he could investigate properly, he received a distress talisman from Biyun Tongzi.

He had no choice but to take Daji with him to rescue people.

Now Li Jing has come to the door with King Zhou's decree and an angel, and the angel is afraid that Li Jingxiao will not agree.

So he directly revealed many secrets about the Beihai Rebellion.

They wanted to use the greater good to force Li Jingxiao to support Grand Tutor Wen. And it's true, Li Jingxiao, a supreme human being, did hesitate because of this reasoning.

Moreover, Yuan Futong had several powerful demons secretly helping him fight against the Yin Shang army.

Upon hearing this, Li Jingxiao, who had been hesitant, immediately brightened up.

Although he could earn six or seven million experience points by fighting with his four wives, several apprentices, and the Seven Monsters of Meishan every day.

In a month, it would amount to about 200 million.

But now, at level 221 (1.35 million/3.1 million), it takes a month and a half to level up once, which is indeed a bit slow in Li Jingxiao's eyes.

If you can kill tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of demons, you can directly level up by eight or ten levels.

Saving a year or two of time is a minor issue; when you reach level 230, you can refresh the BOSS.

The discovery of new magical artifacts will naturally enhance one's ability to protect oneself.

Therefore, Li Jingxiao did not hesitate any longer and decided to agree.

But before he could say it, he changed his mind again.

You can't believe everything people say.

It would be better to send the Seven Monsters of Meishan to Beihai to serve under Wen Zhong.

If there really is a large number of demons causing trouble, then I can go and fight monsters without wasting my time and energy.

If it were just a few powerful demons supporting Yuan Futong, Li Jingxiao wouldn't care about their limited experience.

For him, farming powerful monsters that grant 50 or 60 experience points is not as worthwhile as farming lesser monsters that grant tens or hundreds of thousands of experience points.

After all, there are only a few or a dozen powerful demons.

But the lesser demons are not only numerous, but also easy to kill.

The higher the efficiency in killing enemies, the more experience you will gain in the end.

Having made this decision, Li Jingxiao sent his two servants, Biyun and Yunxia, ​​to summon Yuan Hong.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Hong not only readily agreed to go to Beihai to assist Grand Tutor Wen, but also seemed quite eager to try.

Seeing this, Li Jingxiao couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

As expected, fame and fortune are not so easy to give up, not to mention that the Seven Monsters of Meishan are all monsters without a background or master.

The allure of worldly pleasures and temptations is naturally quite strong for them.

However, Li Jingxiao didn't care about this.

Back in the world of Dream of the Red Chamber, he himself couldn't let go of high-ranking official positions, wealth, wine, women, and power.

Only after experiencing the hustle and bustle of the world can one truly let go.

Otherwise, since I've never enjoyed it, why should I regard 'fame and fortune' as dirt?

Why should I give up 'a life of pleasure, fine wine and beautiful women'?
Buddha was a prince, and he enjoyed worldly riches and honors from birth.

Only when you've enjoyed it can you truly let go.

However, the Seven Monsters of Meishan agreed without hesitation to go to Beihai to help, and were just about to set off.

Upon learning of this, Nezha and Ao Bing also clamored to go.

After thinking it over, Li Jingxiao finally agreed.

Anyway, I know the art of "Resurrection," so even if Nezha or Ao Bing are killed, I can bring them back to life.

Moreover, he only ever suffered a beating and a loss when he was outside.

It was only because Nezha and Ao Bing, with their fickle minds, took the initiative to cultivate diligently.

As for Biyun and Yunxia, ​​before the siblings could even speak, Nezha dismissively told them to stay home and serve their master and mistress.

Li Jingxiao could tell at a glance that when he fought the Seven Freaks of Meishan last time, Biyun was useless except for shouting "Master, save me!"

That's why Nezha disliked him.

Biyun and Yunxia pouted, but looked at their master, Li Jingxiao, who picked up his teacup and drank tea without saying a word.

The two siblings knew perfectly well that their master also disliked their weak strength.

He could only glare at Nezha with dissatisfaction.

He thought to himself, "From now on, my senior brother won't be able to get any pills from us for free."

Nezha, unaware of what was happening, simply turned his head away shyly, avoiding looking at Biyun and Yunxia.
-
The next morning, Nezha, Ao Bing, and the Seven Monsters of Meishan bid farewell to Li Jingxiao.

Li Jingxiao offered some encouragement and then casually tossed out nine life-saving jade slips for requesting help.

Previously, for this life-saving spell, Li Jingxiao had even specially transformed into hair.

After Biyun used it once last time, she complained that it was a lifesaver because she often forgot about the hair-shaped charm.

Li Jingxiao then simply made it into a jade slip.

It not only explains to Nezha, Ao Bing, and the Seven Monsters of Meishan that this life-saving jade slip was used not only in times of life-or-death crisis.

If the chaos in the North Sea is discovered, with a large number of demons causing trouble, the life-saving jade slip can also be used as a communication tool to send messages to oneself.

Nezha and Ao Bing readily agreed.

Needless to say, Nezha is a true human in this life.

Although Ao Bing is a dragon, in the eyes of the dragons of the Four Seas, other monsters are not of the same kind as them at all.

In fact, apart from the Four Seas Dragon Clan, other dragon clans are not of the same kind as them.

In the minds of Yuan Hong and his six companions, they didn't even have the concept of the demon race.

The idea that "demons don't fight demons" is utter nonsense in the minds of these seven people.

If Wen Zhong is fair in rewarding and punishing, then promise him high-ranking official positions, generous salaries, gold and silver treasures.

The Seven Monsters of Meishan might be more eager than anyone else to kill demons and monsters.

Even the Seven Monsters of Meishan despised the demons of the North Sea as barbarians and outcasts.

With the departure of the Seven Monsters of Meishan, Nezha, and Ao Bing, Li Jingxiao gained less experience each day.

But he also spent more time with the four women, including Shi Ji.

After being fooled by Li Jingxiao's sweet talk, the relationship between the five people, including the couple, became even closer.

The experience gained each day has only decreased by 20-30%.

The nine Nezha and his companions flew for several days.

They finally arrived at the military camp in Beihai, where Wen Zhong's troops were stationed.

Wen Zhong, the four demon generals, Deng Chanyu, Deng Jiugong, and more than a dozen disciples of the Jie Sect were all concerned about the arrival of Nezha and his nine companions.

They not only came out of the camp to greet us, but also thanked us repeatedly, showing the utmost enthusiasm.

To put it bluntly, Wen Zhong and his generals were unwilling to be stuck in the desolate land of Beihai indefinitely.

Moreover, Nezha and the others were the first cultivators to come to their aid.

Since they've come all this way to help, regardless of their abilities, we should at least treat them well.

When Yuan Hong transformed into a giant several hundred feet tall, Wen Zhong and the others' attitude towards Nezha and his group changed.

It instantly improved by several levels.

In the world of cultivation, strength is ultimately paramount.

What no one expected was that Yuan Futong, who led seventy-two feudal lords in rebellion against the Shang Dynasty, would become a key figure in this rebellion.

Not only does it share the same surname as Yuan Hong, but like Yuan Hong, it is also a monster of the ape-like type.

During the battle, Yuan Hong saw through Yuan Futong's true nature at a glance.

With a loud shout, he shouldered the level 130 Wind and Fire Iron Rod that Li Jingxiao had given him.

He stepped forward and challenged Yuan Futong to a duel.

That iron rod, though not as powerful as the Sky-Supporting White Jade Pillar, the Free-Willing Iron Rod, or the Ruyi Golden Cudgel.

However, it is also a magical artifact weighing 7200 jin (approximately 360 catties) and possessing dual attributes.

Li Jingxiao didn't think much of this magic weapon, but he gave it to Yuan Hong.

Yuan Hong immediately treated it like a treasure and was reluctant to let it go.

In the eyes of people like Yuan Hong and Sun Wukong, a good weapon can increase combat power by 30-50% to 70-80%.

Even a baby with one or two times the combat power.
