Evergreen Immortal.

Chapter 607 Cruel people
"Big brother, guess what they're saying outside?"

Ning Zhongtian said with a grin.

Li Rui has returned to Donghai City, and the matter of the Guniu Immortal Dynasty has also been brought back by Chang Geng Zhenren and Tan Yu. Tan Yu, in particular, had already compiled Li Rui's heroic deeds in the Guniu Immortal Dynasty into a storybook.

The news has spread throughout Shenxiao City and even reached Taihua Prefecture.

Eating melon seeds (a Chinese idiom for gossiping or watching others enjoy the spectacle) is always a human instinct.

Even cultivators are human and cannot escape worldly concerns.

"say what?"

"It's better to offend the deputy city lord than to provoke Li Changqing."

Li Rui: "."

I don't know where the rumor came from.

It is said that he single-handedly forced the Holy Emperor of the Guniu Immortal Dynasty to his death and crippled two first-rank officials of the Immortal Dynasty.

Ok.

Although the result was correct, Li Rui preserved Gao Peng's lineage by arranging for Gao Peng's grandson to become a leisurely prince in the Yu Kingdom, thus preventing Gao Peng from completely dying out.

I am clearly a very kind person.

Although leaving Gao Peng's grandson behind was also to make it easier to annex the Guniu Immortal Dynasty.

But in the eyes of outsiders.

That would be too harsh.

I've heard that in the mortal dynasty, he even had the power to stop infants from crying.

Li Rui chuckled lightly: "Actually, I'm really a good person."

However, judging from Ning Zhongtian's expression, this rebuttal was rather weak.

Ultimately, no one knew his good intentions.

However, the matter of the Ox Immortal Dynasty has been resolved perfectly this time.

By leaving the Southern Ming Fire in Baiyujing and suppressing the Guniu Immortal Dynasty with swift and decisive action, a rebellion was averted.

Two major achievements.

Two strokes of good fortune.

Very reasonable.

No one could find fault with it.

The old man from the Hall of Ten Thousand Laws was brutally beaten to a pulp by his advisor, Gao Tianxia, ​​and his spiritual embryo didn't even have time to escape.

I heard it was because of this.

Deputy City Lord Chonghua became much more restrained and dared not provoke them anymore.

A strong fist is a source of confidence and a deterrent.

Besides.

Li Rui also learned the whole story from his advisor, Gao Tianxia.

in short.

The Celestial Ancestor of the Guniu Immortal Dynasty secretly possessed the Southern Bright Fire, intending to use it to break through, but he needed to sacrifice a generation's fortune. Gao Peng joined forces with the Wanfa Hall to secretly kill his own ancestor.

Everything was originally done flawlessly.

Unfortunately, he was unlucky.

One of the True Lords of Baiyujing cultivates the Way of Dynastic Change.

This is a very special path, similar to the Longevity Dao of the Longevity Dao Lord, except that it has one more thing: it increases one's cultivation level every time one witnesses the change of a celestial dynasty.

That True Lord recently suffered a Daoist injury.

The matter of the ox-headed immortal and his grandson is the cause, and that True Lord wants to reap the reward.

Lord Yu of Shenxiao City had received orders from that True Lord to send his advisor Gao Tianxia and Chonghua to the Guniu Immortal Dynasty in order to kill the old man of the Wanfa Hall, suppress the rebellion of the Guniu Immortal Dynasty, and bring about a change of dynasty.

Jiang Linxian merely went with the flow, planting people along the way to seize a portion of the good fortune.

It's a win-win situation.

Yes.

In the eyes of those powerful beings, the Celestial Dynasty was nothing more than an object.

Li Rui returned to his room.

A small flame rose up in front of him.

This object is the very source of the Southern Ming Fire.

Although he did not cultivate the Great Dao of Fire, the Southern Bright Fire was still a great fortune for him. It could be refined by the Immortal Dao and then transformed into nourishment for the Immortal Dao, which was a great boost to his Dao foundation.

It was enough for him to cultivate to the late stage of the Dao Body in one go.

It's important to know that climbing the path to immortality always becomes more difficult as you progress.

It may take twenty years to go from the initial stage to the middle stage, but it may take a hundred years to go from the middle stage to the later stage, and many people will even encounter a bottleneck and stop progressing.

Generally speaking.

All the magical items you obtain should be used during your final breakthrough.

However, Li Rui simply didn't have any bottlenecks. That's why he was able to waste resources like this, directly using the suppressing element to accelerate his cultivation.

but.

Li Rui had other plans.

It was precisely because of the Gao family's ancestral supernatural power, the Heavenly Flame Divine Fire Technique.

Cultivation techniques are actually divided into two categories.

One is immortal magic, the other is immortal technique.

Immortal techniques are the foundation of one's cultivation level, but they also require careful nurturing and comprehension. Immortal arts are the means of combat and transformation, and these are the weapons that cultivators rely on in their battles.

Supernatural powers are the best among immortal arts.

Its power is absolutely domineering.

The Gao family's ancestral Heavenly Flame Divine Fire Technique is a supernatural power, an extremely sophisticated fire control technique.

Li Rui was interested.

This is because of a technique within the Heavenly Flame Divine Fire Technique.

Blood burns seven times.

The purpose of this technique is to use one's own body as fuel to burn potential and unleash powerful combat strength in a short period of time.

Only divine fire of the level of Nanming Li Fire can be cultivated.

Once you reach the seventh level of refinement.

It can even unleash combat power more than seven times its own strength.

It was absolutely domineering.

More importantly, Li Rui discovered that the side effect of using the Seven Revolutions of Blood Burning was Dao injury, but he was cultivating the Immortal Path, which emphasizes a beginningless and endless cycle, and the ability to heal Dao injury on its own.

Equivalent to the combat strength of Baijia.

It is truly an essential divine skill for saving lives in emergencies, for murder and robbery—bah, for slaying demons and monsters.

Li Rui is still very young.

I don't lack that little bit of time.

But when it comes to having more trump cards, the more the better.

Even when he was a groom, he already knew the importance of having many skills.

"Lord Li, it's been a long time. His Majesty thinks of you every day."

Eunuch Zheng said with a smile.

Li Rui: "Eunuch Zheng, what good news have you brought this time?"

Eunuch Zheng's face lit up with even more joy: "Great news, great news! The White Jade Capital Elder Council has already issued an order that the Guniu Immortal Dynasty will be incorporated into our Great Yu. Lord Li has made an unparalleled contribution to expanding our territory, and he will surely be remembered for generations to come."

In this regard.

Li Rui was not surprised at all.

After all, these were all arranged by Jiang Linxian.

Even without him, the Guniu Immortal Dynasty would have collapsed and been annexed by the Great Yu.

He just handled things beautifully.

Although he forced Gao Peng to his death, he preserved the direct line of the Gao family and even bestowed upon them the title of Prince of Yu.

This prevented those old ministers of the Guniu Immortal Dynasty from openly carrying out their righteous act of restoring the country.

Chu Hu and Du Ming were nowhere to be seen; both had become court officials of the Yu state.

Just like how Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty recruited the Duke of Wei.

He had already established the achievement of the Eternal Immortal Dynasty, so helping the Yu Kingdom was tantamount to helping himself.

Just as this thought arose...

Lines of small print appeared before his eyes.
