The Demon-Slaying Grandmaster

Chapter 503 I'm really stumped

While teaching Ao Bing martial arts and Taoist magic, Li Jingxiao also learned about the cultivation methods of the dragon race in the world of Investiture of the Gods through Ao Bing.

Compare this to the dragon clan techniques obtained from Ao Huiji, Ao Xin, and the Dragon King of the West Sea in Journey to the West.

Li Jingxiao could roughly guess that the upper limit of the dragon clan's techniques that Ao Bing had learned was probably only the Great Luo Realm.

Moreover, the four dragon clans in Journey to the West and Investiture of the Gods are all the same, they like to play the bloodline game.

The purer the bloodline, the faster the cultivation speed.

Only those with the purest bloodline are qualified to be the Dragon King of the Four Seas Dragon Palace.

The next level up are the Dragon Kings of Rivers, Lakes, and Seas.

However, it's not true that the purer one's bloodline, the better one's cultivation talent.

Countless real-world examples have shown that any force that plays on bloodlines will ultimately only get worse and worse.

No wonder the dragon race is getting weaker and weaker.

In Journey to the West, it even became a dish on the tables of immortals, gods, and Buddhas.
-
By the time Wu Yunxian flew back from the East Sea, half a day had already passed.

When this guy saw Li Jingxiao again, his attitude was incredibly respectful.

The world of cultivation is actually more cruel than the mortal world; the stronger you are, the more status and voice you have.

Moreover, Wu Yunxian was the head of the "Seven Immortals Attendant" by the Tongtian Sect Leader's side, and Li Jingxiao was once again reminded of his flying skills and speed.

In the world of Investiture of the Gods, speed-related techniques are just as rare as those in the world of Journey to the West.

Therefore, Li Jingxiao made up his mind once again that he would never pass on the techniques of "Soaring to Great Heights" and "Thunder Escape" to outsiders.

If the "Somersault Cloud" skill is obtained from Sun Wukong in the game in the future, it will not be shared with others.

If it's fast enough, it can truly be used as a trump card to save your life to a certain extent.
-
Now that Wu Yunxian has returned, Li Jingxiao naturally won't miss the opportunity to gain more experience.

He threw a lavish banquet for the members of the Jie Sect, drinking nine times in three days, until Wu Yunxian and the others got headaches just from the sight of alcohol.

However, after three days of feasting and drinking, Wu Yunxian, Jingu Xian, and the others forgot about being beaten down by Li Jingxiao.

As everyone tried to build rapport with him, the status of Fairy Caiyun, Qiongxiao, Shiji, and others within the Jie Sect clearly rose several levels.

Of the three women, Qiongxiao didn't seem to care much about the situation.

In any case, her situation within the Jie Sect was far better than that of Shiji and Caiyun.

While Shiji and Caiyun were excited and happy, they also understood the situation very well.

Everything they have now is, in a sense, given to them by their own men.

Therefore, when serving Li Jingxiao, she was incredibly gentle, virtuous, and understanding.

Meanwhile, the Yin Shang camp in Beihai became a favorite place for many Jiejiao disciples who had nothing better to do.

Not only because Li Jingxiao never skimped on good wine, whether it was Monkey Spirit Wine, Peach Blossom Immortal Wine, or Thousand-Year Ginseng Wine.

It's still Jade Dew Wine, Rejuvenating Spirit Wine, Immortal's Intoxication, and Hundred Herbs Spirit Brew.

Even the finest nectar, the purest nectar, and the purple nectar that can prolong life.

Li Jingxiao would share them with the disciples of the Jie Sect.

With tens of thousands of disciples of the Jie Sect, there were bound to be some restless individuals who were invited by their fellow disciples to a banquet in the North Sea.

So let's not talk about groups of three to five or dozens of people drinking every day.

But having a small banquet every three days and a large banquet every five days is still no problem.

As a result, Li Jingxiao only took a little over two months to level up from level 228 to level 230 (0.1 billion/4 million).

Back at Chentang Pass that evening, after taking care of several women, Li Jingxiao once again slipped through the wall and emerged.

Upon entering the study, I focused my mind on the game, directing my character to leave the city and search for a new boss.

Along the way, I casually cleared out the monsters in the level 230 map and soon came to a huge and magnificent palace.

After Li Jingxiao fought his way through the monsters to enter the main hall...

On the high dragon throne sat a middle-aged man dressed in imperial robes, wearing a crown, and holding a sharp sword.

Li Jingxiao quickly guessed that this person was most likely the Demon Emperor Jun.

That sharp sword is most likely the Witch-Slaying Sword.

Li Jingxiao was instantly smitten.

This sword not only represents the power of the Demon Emperor and the sword of an emperor, but it is also a top-grade acquired spiritual treasure.

It can ignore the physical strength of a ancestral witch, and is extremely lethal and restraining to the witch race.

However, this divine sword was forged by the demon race after slaughtering hundreds of millions of humans and absorbing their life essence.

Therefore, the refining process triggered immense karma, causing the demon race's fortune to plummet.

The war between the Lich and the Witch resulted in mutual destruction, which was also the main reason why the Witch race withdrew from its position as the protagonist of the world and became the sworn enemy of the Human and Witch races.

Legend has it that this sword eventually fell into the hands of a sage.

The overwhelming resentment within the sage's purification sword eventually became the Xuanyuan Sword, a sacred artifact of the human race.

That is, the later Emperor's Sword.

When Li Jingxiao went to Chaoge City, he wanted to see the Emperor's Sword.

Unfortunately, he searched the Chaoge Royal Palace several times but could not find the Emperor's Sword.

Finally, when they couldn't find it, they had no choice but to give up.

I never expected that I would actually have the chance and probability to get this sword in the game.

Without saying a word, Li Jingxiao took action.

However, as soon as Li Jingxiao started fighting, he suddenly realized that no matter how he attacked, he could not cause any damage to Di Jun.

Moreover, this guy was holding the Witch-Slaying Sword, looking at Li Jingxiao's performance with a look of contempt and disgust.

Li Jingxiao was almost furious at the sight.

Forcing himself to calm down, Li Jingxiao observed and pondered repeatedly before realizing that he had entered a large formation as soon as he entered the huge palace.

This quickly reminded Li Jingxiao that Di Jun possessed the 'Hetu Luoshu'.

This treasure is not only a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, but it is also related to formations.

The Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Array of the demon race evolved from the He Tu Luo Shu.

However, Li Jingxiao had never really studied formations.

In terms of formations, let alone alchemy.

Even his skill in weapon crafting is far superior to his skill in array formation.

Therefore, although Li Jingxiao could see that there was a formation in the palace, he could not figure out what the formation was.

Not to mention how to crack it.

All I could do was keep trying, but unfortunately, after a whole night of work, nothing came of it.

They even took out the Chaos Bell and kept bombarding the formation, but they still couldn't break it.

early morning.

In the martial arts arena of Li Garden, Daji tugged at Shiji's sleeve with some concern.

She asked in a low voice, "Sister, what trouble has my husband encountered?"

Shi Ji shook her head.

The five women present were Shiji, Caiyun, Qiongxiao, Daji, and Deng Chanyu.

Biyun, Yunxia, ​​Leizhenzi, and many of the maids could all tell that Li Jingxiao was in a bad mood this morning.

So even the usually boisterous Lei Zhenzi was now obediently following Bi Yun and Yun Xia to practice his skills.

At this moment, Li Jingxiao's mind was entirely focused on recalling the array formations he had learned from Laozi in the Journey to the West world.

While I was at it, I also organized the array formations taught by Yuanshi Tianzun and Lingbao Daozun.

Unfortunately, no matter how much he pondered and researched, and then directed the game character to try again and again, it was all in vain.

There's still nothing we can do about the palaces and formations in the game.

Only then did Li Jingxiao begin to regret his actions in the Journey to the West world.

I didn't get to visit Yuanshi Tianzun and Lingbao Daozun more often to learn about the Dao of Formations.

After more than ten days, Li Jingxiao had figured out some tricks, but he had only cracked a part of the formation in the game.

Moreover, if he attacked again at this moment, Li Jingxiao could clearly feel that the entire ceiling of the huge palace would transform into the Zhou Tian Technique.

This made Li Jingxiao suspect that the formation might be a smaller version of the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Formation.

Therefore, Li Jingxiao dared not continue to forcefully attack the formation, lest he provoke a counterattack from the formation.
-
That day, Qiongxiao and the others couldn't stand it anymore; their husbands always looked so worried.

After the five sisters served her well, they pressed her for answers repeatedly.

Li Jingxiao said that he had recently been studying the art of formations.

But he didn't tell the truth. He only said that when he was studying the formations, he became so engrossed in them that he often seemed restless.

Upon hearing this, Qiongxiao and Shiji rolled their eyes.

Qiongxiao said irritably, "Husband, not to mention that my sister is skilled in the art of formations, the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation is a first-class formation."

Even the Ten Heavenly Kings are all masters of formations.

It would be better for you to come back to the Three Immortals Island with me than for your husband to be alone at home pondering things.

"If my husband gets more and more involved, it will be the five of us sisters who will suffer."

Li Jingxiao felt somewhat embarrassed and helpless upon hearing this, and picked up his teacup to take a sip of tea.

It wasn't that he hadn't thought of this; after all, the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation was so famous that it would be hard not to know that Yunxiao was a master of formations.

But he didn't plan to go to the Three Immortal Islands for a simple reason: he couldn't expose the Zhou Tian Star Array.

Once the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Formation is broken in the game.

Then, by bombarding Di Jun with messages, the diagram and formation of the Star Array were revealed.

It will inevitably become his trump card or a life-saving trump card in the future.

If he were to go and discuss formation knowledge with Yunxiao, he would inevitably reveal many of the formation's secrets.

As for discussing the Dao with the Ten Heavenly Lords...

It wasn't that Li Jingxiao looked down on the Ten Heavenly Lords, but rather that these ten guys had researched, pondered, and processed ten great formations.

Its power was considered extremely formidable by the disciples of the Chan Sect.

But Li Jingxiao said that these ten great formations were actually nothing special.

Moreover, the Ten Deadly Formations have very obvious weaknesses.

The so-called Ten Heavenly Kings are Qin Wan, Zhao Jiang, Dong Quan, Yuan Jiao, Golden Light Holy Mother, Bai Li, Yao Bin, Wang Bian, and Zhang Shao.

As for the Ten Deadly Formations, they are the Heavenly Deadly Formation, Earthly Deadly Formation, Howling Wind Formation, Frost Formation, Golden Light Formation, Blood Transformation Formation, Blazing Flame Formation, Soul-Falling Formation, Red Water Formation, and Red Sand Formation.

These ten formations incorporate secret techniques from the arts of demons, witches, and ghosts.

It doesn't look like anything good.

But he is indeed impressive, after all, not everyone is like Li Jingxiao.

Not only does he possess a wealth of magical treasures, but he also understands the Taoist methods and supernatural powers of the Taiqing, Yuqing, and Shangqing schools.

In Li Jingxiao's eyes, the Ten Deadly Formations posed no threat whatsoever.

However, the Ten Heavenly Kings forced the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, along with the Chan Sect's Vice Leader, Daoist Ran Deng, and Lu Ya, to a standstill.

Unfortunately, the Ten Deadly Formations also have significant drawbacks.

It must be personally presided over by the Ten Heavenly Lords, who must also be the core of the formation.

Once the formation is broken, the person in charge of it loses the ability to resist.

They were almost certainly going to die.

Moreover, although the Ten Deadly Formations are said to be ten formations, they have not been able to figure out a way to combine the ten formations into one.

It's essentially still fighting alone, giving the opponent opportunities to defeat them one by one.

In the end, Ran Deng figured out a solution that was not a solution at all.

Allow the marginal figures of the second generation of the Chan Sect and the third generation disciples to enter the battle.

Ran Deng, Lu Ya, and the Twelve Golden Immortals observed the true nature of the Ten Deadly Formations from outside the formation.

This is tantamount to using the lives of the disciples of the Chan Sect as cannon fodder.

When they also killed the Ten Heavenly Kings, the Jie Sect had nothing to say.

Of course, not every one of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect sacrificed their disciples' lives to fill the key points of the Ten Deadly Formations.

But at least half of them do it this way, and it was the vice-leader who came up with the idea.

This will indeed severely damage the cohesion and sense of belonging of the Chan Sect.

The Daoist Ran Deng who devised this method knew he could no longer stay in the Chan Sect after the Great War of Ten Thousand Immortals.

He simply abandoned his religion and went to the West with Cihang, Puxian, Wenshu, and Jukesun.

Therefore, in Li Jingxiao's mind, the Ten Heavenly Kings and the Ten Absolute Formations were nothing special.

I never even considered asking those ten of them to exchange ideas and study the principles of formations.

As for Qiongxiao, although the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation is powerful, it is rumored that the Tongtian Sect Leader obtained the formation diagram.

He figured it out and studied it thoroughly before passing it on to Yunxiao.

Only when the formation is combined with the 'Hun Yuan Golden Cauldron' can its maximum power be unleashed.

Not only did it shave off the "three flowers on the top of the head and the five qi in the chest" of the Twelve Golden Immortals.

He went from being a Taiyi Golden Immortal to a mortal in an instant.

In fact, if Yunxiao hadn't been so cautious, worried that his senior uncle Yuanshi Tianzun would confront Tongtian Jiaozhu, he would have been even more impressed.

That's why they held back; otherwise, in the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, Yunxiao would have been able to coordinate with Bixiao's Golden Dragon Scissors.

He was able to send all twelve Golden Immortals to the Investiture of the Gods.

Unfortunately, Yunxiao valued the bonds between the three religions and the dignity of her senior brother, but Yuanshi Tianzun and Laozi did not see it that way.

Not only did they shamelessly bully the weak, but they also used their saintly status to kill Bixiao and Qiongxiao.

They also imprisoned Yunxiao under Qilin Cliff.

When the gods were conferred, Yunxiao was also conferred a godhood.

In other words, not long after being trapped under Qilin Cliff, Yunxiao died for reasons unknown.

Even after death, their souls were forcibly collected by the Investiture of the Gods.

Li Jingxiao simply doesn't believe there's nothing fishy going on here.

Of course, this applies if Li Jingxiao is a member of the Chan Sect.

He will probably be like Yuanshi Tianzun.

No matter how close a disciple or nephew is, or how much they consider the bigger picture, they are not as close as one's own direct disciple.

Similarly, all twelve of your disciples were crippled by you three sisters.

This almost severed the lineage of the sect, which was tantamount to almost severing the root of the Chan sect.

It would be strange if I didn't kill you.

As the Twelve Golden Immortals transformed from immortals into mortals, naturally some would try every means to kill Yunxiao.
-
Li Jingxiao was unwilling to expose the Zhou Tian Star Array, so he was unwilling to discuss the Dao with Yunxiao and the Ten Heavenly Lords.

But in Qiongxiao's eyes, it was just that her husband didn't like her two older sisters.

Moreover, Qiongxiao had considered it, and even encouraged her husband to pursue her two older sisters.

If it succeeds, the sisters won't have to be separated anymore.

Li Jingxiao was only wary of Tongtian Jiaozhu, which is why he never revealed his feelings for Yunxiao and Bixiao.

This led Qiongxiao to mistakenly believe that he had no ulterior motives towards his two aunts.

Now I see my own husband becoming obsessed with magic formations.

Qiongxiao suddenly realized that this was a good opportunity.

So at this moment, the woman was preoccupied with figuring out how to persuade Li Jingxiao to go to the Three Immortals Island.

If she spends enough time with her two older sisters, she might just find herself falling for Lee Kyung-hyo without even realizing it, just like she did back then.

Seeing Li Jingxiao's hesitant expression, Qiongxiao immediately pretended to look pitiful and sad.
