Chapter 1: Transformed into dragon bones and lost
Daxia Yuanzhou and Malan City.
The night was thick with deafening thunder and howling wind, like a curtain of rain.
The wind and rain beat on every roof in the city, splashing thousands of water splashes, making bursts of thunder, as if they were about to smash tiles, and covered every street with a layer of mist.
The water on the ground boiled, turning into a swamp and a vast mist.
Li Yuan was walking under the eaves, and most of the lotus robe on his body was soaked by the rain.
The wind, not to be outdone, still blew the clothes and made a hunting sound.
It's late at night, and the lights in every house are out.
The entire city seemed to be filled with nothing but wind and rain.
"Baicaoju, we're finally here."
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Li Yuan finally raised his head, revealing a pair of fiery eyes under his cloak, and murmured.
"Dong dong——"
The sound of slamming the store door sounded.
"Who? Is something wrong?"
A voice came from the store.
"Shopkeeper, I want to buy a piece of goldenrod."
Li Yuan replied.
"The golden grass costs a thousand gold. Do you have money?"
"Yes, yes."
"Qiang Qiang——"
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of long knives clashing sounded in the alleyway beside him.
"No, this aura... is from the Shentu family."
Li Yuan frowned, turned around suddenly, and walked straight to the street.
The speed was so fast that the whole person was like a black lightning, breaking through the rain curtain and passing through.
"Hey! Li Yuan, did you run away..."
"Tomorrow is the Li family's annual cultivation test.
"I knew that in order to keep your identity as the young patriarch, you would come to Baicaoju late at night to buy Stephania Herba like you did in previous years!
"Hand over your dragon bone. " Leaving this waste in your body will only cause these precious bones to be covered in dust. "
A series of joking voices came from the alleyway.
Immediately afterwards, five or six figures rushed out of the alleyway, holding long knives, and they all laughed ferociously.
I felt a strong wind behind me, passing through the street, setting off a sonic boom, and the rain pounded. He was defeated and struck directly at his vest.
"Sixth level of Qi refining realm. "
Li Yuan's heart sank, and his face suddenly changed. He thought of various ways to avoid it in an instant, and then with a quick stride, he rushed behind an animal-shaped stone statue on the street. "
Bang -"
The fierce wind hit the stone statue, It exploded immediately, and a strong wind of energy swept across. Li Yuan was directly knocked onto the eaves of the street.
"Plop, tap, tap—"
Dozens of tiles flew up and fell to the ground. The whole thing was shattered.
Grasping the broken eaves with one arm, Li Yuan used all his strength to throw his body to the roof.
"Shen Tu Meng!" You dare to attack me in the city. "
Li Yuan turned his head, looked at the people headed by several black figures on the street, and shouted angrily.
"Not bad! He was able to guess it was me. "
Li Yuan stared at the leading man in black and sneered. Then he tore off the bamboo hat on his head and threw it heavily to the ground. Shentu raised his head to the sky, closed
his eyes tightly, took a deep breath, and let it go. Washed by the rain, he immediately said coldly: "The wind is strong enough tonight and the rain is heavy enough. If I take your precious bones, no one will know that I did it."
"Boss, that kid ran away. " "
Hearing this, Shentu suddenly opened his eyes.
He saw Li Yuan, wearing a lotus robe, on the roof, like an arrow from the string, breaking through the rain curtain with overwhelming momentum and heading straight to the east.
" Damn it! Hurry up and chase! "
Shentu slapped the black-clothed man next to him, then stamped his feet on the ground, shaking off the rainwater, and flew straight to the roof, catching up with him. Several others followed closely. Li Yuan's figure
was
like Kuiying flashed across the roof, exploding at a speed far beyond his own level of cultivation. He actually opened some distance between himself and Shen Tumeng, and the distance grew wider and wider. ... The wind stopped and the rain stopped, the night went by and the sun
rose
. .
Thousands of mountains are green, and there are no clouds
in the sky. The air is filled with fresh breath and light smoke.
The citizens of Malan City are walking out of their homes one after another, and the streets are gradually becoming active.
"Huh..."
He slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, and after a few seconds After practicing for an hour, Li Yuan still felt physically and mentally exhausted.
"It feels like I'm almost an old man in his seventies.
"The vitality is dissipating.
"The harder you practice, the weaker the vitality in your body becomes.
"Every year, I have to rely on stephanotis to maintain my false cultivation.
"There is no steppegrass this year. It seems that it will become a joke to the whole family. "
After a while, Li Yuanjing concentrated on feeling the vitality in his body. His handsome face suddenly became more angry, and sharp curses came from his mouth.
"Shentu Meng, this bastard, doesn't know that the dragon bone in my body is gone. ?
"One day...
"Forget it..."
"Young patriarch, the elder invites you to go to the test square to participate in the annual cultivation test. "
He was about to rest for a while, but an old woman's voice came from outside the room.
"Oh. "
Reluctantly, Li Yuanqiang got out of bed with his exhausted body, opened the room, and walked out.
He faced an old woman in blue clothes outside the room and showed a look that was even uglier than crying. Smiling, he said: "Let's go, Butler Qingxin.
"Sigh, if the Dragon Transformation Bone on the Young Patriarch's body had not disappeared, I'm afraid he would be a ninth-level Qi Refining Realm expert on par with the Patriarch now. "
"Maybe they can all reach the Yuanli realm, but it's a pity..."
Looking at the young man's handsome face, the old woman in green nodded gently, but her cloudy eyes showed a trace of regret, and she sighed secretly in her heart.
Li Yuan, the son of the head of the Li family, one of the three major families in Malan City, was born with a golden key in his mouth.
Because when he was born, a unique dragon bone was born in his body.
As long as there are no accidents, it is the natural state of Nirvana.
Most people who are born with dragon bones can enter nirvana before the age of thirty as long as they are willing.
He practiced qi at the age of three and reached the eighth level of qi refining at the age of fifteen. He is the absolute number one genius in Malan City and is respected by thousands of people.
Everyone thought that before he turned eighteen, he would be able to break through the ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm, successfully condense a Qi pool, cultivate Yuanli, step into the Yuanli Realm, and become the only Yuanli Realm expert in his family in the past century.
Unfortunately, his journey to heaven had just begun when he fell from the altar.
A few years ago, Li Yuan's reputation in the family reached its peak, and he was very likely to become the only Nirvana genius in the history of the Li family. Suddenly, he suffered the most tragic blow since his birth.
After twelve years of training, his cultivation reached the eighth level of the Qi Refining Realm, which became the pinnacle of his cultivation.
When he was fifteen years old, just after his family's annual cultivation test, the Dragon Transformation Bone in his body suddenly lost its function, and his cultivation stalled and became ethereal.
In the days that followed, not only did his cultivation stagnant, but it also continued to decline, gradually becoming an ordinary person without a body.
Every time when it comes to the family cultivation test, they rely on the grass to maintain the eighth level of Qi Refining Realm.
Just a month ago, he could not sense the existence of dragon bone in his body.
The dragon bone that he was so proud of was completely gone.
The real cultivation level is only the second level of Qi Refining Realm.
Although the Dragon Bone was gone, he still wanted to get the Thousand Golden Grass to see if he could still maintain his false cultivation and cheat the test stone tablet.
In the past few years, his cultivation has been illusory and his real strength has fallen again and again. It is no secret in Malan City.
The dragon bone is gone.
It means that he is not much different from ordinary practitioners.
If this continues, I'm afraid he won't even be as good as ordinary people.
Li Yuan was puzzled as to why the unique Hualong Bone disappeared.
This kind of blow made Li Yuan become decadent.
He dreamed countless times that he was back on top.
He is still the confident genius with immeasurable potential.
When he woke up from the dream, the weak vitality in his body forced him to recognize the reality. Maybe he would never have a chance to get up again.
Today is the day for the family's annual cultivation test, and all the clan members are excited.
But he has to face a more cruel result. If the test result does not reach the fourth level of Qi Refining Realm, the identity of the young patriarch will be taken away.
Li Yuan, who has always lived in seclusion, relied on the grass to pass the cultivation test. Not many people know his true cultivation level, only that his strength is not as good as before.
If you don't get the Stephania Herb, everything will be made public today, and you will feel like you are being sent to the execution ground.
Li Yuan followed the old woman in Tsing Yi through the many courtyards and arrived at the examination square with a radius of fifty or sixty feet on the cliff behind the family.
Near the edge of the cliff, there stands a ten-foot-tall stone tablet used to test one's cultivation.
It is said that it was established by a strong man in the family who successfully entered the Yuanli realm a hundred years ago.
At this moment, there were thousands of figures crowding around the square, their eyes filled with excitement and heat.
Different cultivation means different resources obtained in the next year.
"Li Ming, fifth level of Qi Refining Realm!"
Five light grooves lit up on the test stone tablet. An old man in green shirt below took a look and said loudly.
"Li Yuan, everyone has been waiting for you for a long time."
At this time, the old man in blue saw Li Yuan being brought to the square by the old woman in green and shouted indifferently.
"Is this going to be a death sentence?"
Hearing this, Li Yuan's face suddenly sank and he murmured.
Although he was extremely reluctant, the tribesmen in the square specially made a way for him, giving him a feeling of welcome.
Indeed, until he was sixteen, he was admired by everyone.
But in the past two years, those admiring looks have turned into ridicule.
Walking on this specially set aside road, he felt as if he was carrying a mountain on his back.
The test stone tablet at the end was like a mountain of ten thousand feet, exuding majestic pressure, which made him feel breathless.
Unconsciously, beads of sweat rolled down his handsome face.
Climb the stone stairs and place your palms on the stone tablet.
"Buzz--"
It seemed that he felt a roar, as if God was judging why his dragon bones disappeared.
"Li Yuan, second level of Qi Refining Realm!"
After an unknown amount of time, a cold voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
Immediately afterwards, the surroundings erupted into an uproar, full of ridicule.
Obviously, this result was unexpected by everyone.
Eighteen years old, second level of Qi Refining Realm.
Isn't this just like trash?
He raised his head and glanced at the two light grooves on the huge stone tablet, and there was a hint of self-mockery in the corner of his mouth.
Withdrawing the infused vitality, he took his palm away from the stone tablet, immediately turned around, dragged his tired body down the stone stairs, passed through the crowd, and rushed out of the test square.
"Second level? How is it possible? During last year's test, wasn't he at the eighth level of Qi Refining Realm?" "
Although his strength has declined, his cultivation level is still there, but it's just more superficial." "
You don't know, right? Every year he relies on Qianjincao maintained the highest level of cultivation ever and deceived the test stone tablet."
"How is it possible?"
"How is it impossible? Don't you think he rarely goes out in the past few years, always hiding in his own courtyard, and his strength is not as good as Before."
"You said that, it seems so."
"And I also heard that his dragon bone is gone."
"What? How is that possible."
"You can't say this nonsense."
"Everyone in the family knows this. The matter is just suppressed and not many people know about it." "
It's a pity that he may become the only genius in the Nirvana realm in the history of the Li family, and now it has become a joke." "
If this is true, the entire Malan City will be destroyed. Look at the jokes of our Li family."
"What Malan City is, it's the entire Yuanzhou, no, the entire Daxia." "
Such a loser still serves as the young patriarch?"
"Isn't there a patriarch father?"
"You're still a young patriarch. , the waste at the second level of the Qi Refining Realm should be driven out of the family."
"Don't worry, the second level Qi Refining Realm has lost the qualification to succeed the clan leader." "
Oh, the genius who had the dragon bone in the past?"
.........
want The young man in blue robe who rushed out of the square accepted a flood of ridicule from behind, like sharp knives piercing his body, making his breathing quicken.
"Li Yuan, in twelve days, the elders will depose you as the young patriarch. Even if your father is the patriarch, they can't protect you." Suddenly, a bone-chilling voice came
from the test stone tablet, hitting Li Yuan directly. Soul couldn't help but make him pause in his forward steps.
"Li Minglin, sixth level of Qi Refining Realm!"
Immediately afterwards, an excited and excited voice came from the mouth of the old man in green clothes under the test stone tablet.
