Uncle Jiu's Senior Brother
Chapter 31: First Hearing of the Purple Demon
So that's how it is. I thought it was just like playing an online game. No wonder Uncle Jiu looked at me like a monster. I have never encountered the problem of running out of mana, so I can use Lightning Fist and Five Thunder Art many times.
Jiushu usually saves his mana whenever possible, and often uses skills to win, using talismans, magic tools, etc. Unlike me, I just rush in with a sword or fist.
"Thank you, Master, for clearing up my doubts." Lu Li said gratefully.
The old Taoist nodded with satisfaction: "You are born with a Taoist body, so the speed of accumulating mana is dozens of times faster than others, but the mana is still limited. You must keep three points in everything. This three points is your guarantee of self-protection. There are many ways to use mana, such as the sound transmission just now, or the advanced sword flying that has been lost. These are all."
"Master, can't he fly on a sword even though he's in the Jindan stage?" What Lu Li longed for the most was flying on a sword, that was the romance of a man.
Shaking his head, the old Taoist sighed, "It was possible in ancient times, but later the method of flying with a sword was lost. The Jindan stage can only achieve an inch anywhere and a thousand meters in one step. It is still possible to fly in the air for a short period of time, so it is called land immortals."
Seeing that Lu Li was a little disappointed, the old Taoist comforted him: "When you reach the Nascent Soul stage, you will be able to master the flying of the sword by yourself, and you can also leave your body and travel the world. In my opinion, the Nascent Soul stage is the real earthly immortal."
Lu Li's eyes were determined. Yuanying? He would definitely reach it.
"By the way, Master, what else do you want to do besides coming to see me?"
The old Taoist looked serious. "I shouldn't have told you this, but you are in the late stage of foundation building now, so it doesn't hurt to know. When Xu Fu fled to Fusang, he was afraid that the Emperor of Qin would send strange men to hunt him down, so he established the Purple Demon Palace to worship evil spirits. He was also a genius Qigong practitioner, and later he improved the Taoist skills and created the ghost-controlling technique, which can make people and ghosts merge into one, and people can borrow the power of ghosts, so he is an Yin-Yang master. However, this technique also has a disadvantage, that is, people will become like ghosts in the end, with a completely different temperament and become cruel and violent."
Lu Li was shocked when he heard this. Is Xu Fu so powerful? Not only did he deceive Qin Shi Huang, but he also became the founder of a sect.
"There has been a great turmoil in the Central Plains recently. The Dao Sect has discovered that many things are related to the practitioners of Fusang, so I decided to take a look at them on this trip."
So that's how it is. Fuso has always been ambitious. The mountains and rivers were weeping blood, wasn't it them who did it? Now that I'm here, I can't just stand by and watch, so Lu Li stood up.
"Grandmaster, leave this matter to me!"
"Hmm? You want to investigate this matter? Do you know that there are not only the shadows of Fusang here, but also the evil people from our Central Plains."
"I want to go. The Maoshan precepts stipulate that good and evil are opposed to each other and must be fought for a lifetime. I came here to hone my skills." Lu Li said this with absolute certainty. These are all merits.
The old Taoist stroked his beard and laughed a few times, his face full of approval.
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you. Be careful. This is our Maoshan's protective jade pendant, and it also serves as a communication talisman. If you encounter problems that you can't solve, you can directly message me."
Lu Li took the protective jade pendant, which was about the size of a palm, with an eight-diagram engraved on the front. It looked familiar. Isn't this the style used by Uncle Jiu in "The Exorcist Police"?
"Okay, I've said everything I need to say. I won't keep you any longer. Be careful. If you reach the Golden Core stage, you must go back to Maoshan."
Before Lu Li could say anything, the old Taoist turned into a breeze and disappeared. This ancestor must have reached the Golden Core Stage. He came and went without a trace.
There is no clue to tracking down the Purple Demon, we can only wait and see if we can encounter it. The Fuso people have been arranging in the Central Plains for so long that it is impossible for them to have no clues.
Time passed in a flash. Three months had passed since Lu Li last met the head of Maoshan. Lu Li came to the capital. Looking at the ancient city wall full of historical atmosphere, he could feel the cultural accumulation of this nation.
"Moo..."
Lu Li suddenly looked up, and his divine sense detected a dragon hovering over the capital. However, the dragon's scales were dull, and it exuded a sad, decayed aura. It seemed that it would not live long!
As if sensing Lu Li's prying eyes, Longyan glanced in Lu Li's direction, but at this moment, with its ability, it could not do anything. Lu Li only felt a vicissitudes of life and sadness permeating through his spiritual sense, and quickly cut off his spiritual sense.
"This is the golden dragon of the Qing Dynasty's fortune! Is it on the verge of dissipating?" Lu Li, who knew history, naturally understood what would happen in the future.
"Who disturbed the dragon? Go check!" At this time, the Imperial Palace's Imperial Observatory was in a state of chaos. Then, groups of guards appeared in the capital to investigate.
Lu Li naturally didn't pay attention to these things, but continued to wander around the capital.
"Master's nephew?"
Lu Li heard a familiar voice and looked back.
"Uncle Master Qianhe, how come you came back so soon? Have you recovered?" The person who came was Taoist Master Qianhe, accompanied by his only two remaining disciples and a few soldiers.
Taoist Master Qianhe was also very happy to see Lu Li. After not seeing him for a year, Taoist Master Qianhe stayed with Taoist Master Simu for a month to recuperate before returning to the capital. Fortunately, the deceased was an unappreciated prince of the royal family, and Taoist Master Qianhe had the support of Maoshan, so the case was left unresolved.
"I was wondering, it's you, my nephew, who has come to the capital. What's the matter with you this time?" Taoist Qianhe explained to the two disciples behind him, and then the guards in the capital also dispersed.
"I'm out traveling, and I happened to pass by and wanted to take a look. What is this?" Lu Li pointed at the departing guards.
"This is not the place to talk, follow me." Taoist Qianhe brought Lu Li to a restaurant and they sat down.
"Junior brother, did you see the golden dragon of luck above just now?" Taoist Qianhe said with a smile.
Lu Li nodded.
"That's right. Only your cultivation level can attract the attention of the Qing Dynasty's Golden Dragon. The Golden Dragon has the responsibility to protect an area. When it is powerful, the cultivation of all practitioners entering the capital will be suppressed, and any evildoers who come in will be turned into ashes. But now, alas! Apart from being able to warn when powerful practitioners come in, it has no other abilities." Taoist Qianhe explained to Lu Li.
Lu Li then realized what his previous investigation had caused, and he couldn't help but feel fortunate that the Qing Dynasty was about to fall. If it was at the peak of its power, his previous spying might have caused a backlash.
"Those soldiers were just looking for someone. I have already given the order. This is all the court can do now. Outside the palace, basically no one cares about that person's order. The only ones who can give orders are the old and young, and the monks who still owe the court a favor.
"Isn't what happened last time enough to repay the favor?" You have to know that Taoist Qianhe almost lost his life last time.
After a bitter smile, Taoist Qianhe said, "It's not that easy to repay. I have been cultivating with the help of the Qing court's luck and wealth since I came down the mountain. It has been ten years now. Although I have done a lot of things, it is not enough to get away. If I leave rashly, I am afraid it will cause a backlash and reduce my cultivation."
Lu Li mourned for Taoist Qianhe in a moment. In the current situation, if he was tied to this broken boat, he would probably sink with the boat in a few years.
"By the way, Junior-Martial-Nephew, it's just right that you're here. I've been having a very difficult problem lately, and your presence could just help Junior-Martial-Uncle with some advice."
Lu Li happened to have nothing to do recently, so he became interested after hearing what he said.
"Uncle Master, please speak?"
After drinking the tea in the cup, Taoist Qianhe poured himself another cup and also added some for Lu Li. "In recent years, a drug has appeared in the capital. The nobles call it Jilesan. It makes you feel like you are floating in the air, but once you stop taking it, the consequences are more serious than Fushou ointment. The skin will be scratched and ulcerated, and the death will be extremely miserable."
After that, Taoist Qianhe took out a bag of medicine powder wrapped in yellow paper. Lu Li opened it and saw that it was a bag of white powder. Isn't this white powder? But when he smelled it carefully, he found that there was a strange smell in it.
"What is this? Human bone powder!"
"Yes, so I suspect that there are sorcerers involved. I wonder what conspiracy these people have in spreading this bliss powder in the capital."
Taoist Qianhe looked solemn.
