Chapter 20: Trouble after trouble (Third shift!)
Sun Li got the seeds, but his heart was bursting with joy.
After class, he rushed out of the classroom and went straight to the little old man's place to collect the five tiles, then went to Cang Lan Hall to exchange his total of six Excellent Knowledge Reward Points into Spirit Stones.
After returning to his hut, Sun Li began remodeling the tiles.
Because of the spirit stones, Luo Huan redesigned the formation. Using a spirit stone as the core, along with those stones that Sun Li had picked up from Luo Mei Mountain, he finally put together the formations within the five tile jars.
Together with the previous tile jar, Sun Li had a total of six tile jars in his hands that could grow spirit medicines. And this time, Chong Zhong had given each disciple ten seeds. Sun Li planted six of them, and the remaining were put away inside his storage ring.
He was now a Mortal Realm cultivator, and inscribing formations was much easier than before. But even so, the transformation of the five tiles exhausted him, and every time he finished transforming a tile, the spirit energy in his body would be depleted, and he had to meditate and cultivate until his spirit energy was replenished before he could start again.
By the time he had planted all six seeds of the Seven Seeded Shouwu, it was already noon the next day.
Sun Li rested for a bit, then went out to fetch water and took a shower in the courtyard to wash off his stinky sweat.
"Sun Li."
A clear voice sounded behind him, Sun Li turned around and looked rather surprised, "Tian Yingdong, why are you here?"
Tian Yingdong was dressed in a clean and refreshing Taoist robe, smiling faintly at Sun Li: "We are old villagers from a village, the previous month we were busy with cultivation, the pressure was extremely high, and we didn't have time to move around more, this month is finally better, so I thought of coming over to take a look at you. How are you living here, are you still used to it?"
Sun Li smiled slightly, "It's okay."
He dried himself and invited Tian Yingdong into the house. Although the two had a cold relationship in the village, they were nominally countrymen. When Tian Yingdong visited, Sun Li naturally could not be rude.
The two of them casually talked about things in Lotus Terrace Village and reminisced about their childhood, and on the surface, they seemed to be in harmony.
But Sun Li can always feel from his words, a condescending attitude, he sneered in his heart: for Tian Yingdong, take the initiative to come to make friends with their own this downtrodden hometown, it is "folded under the friendship", right? I'm afraid that in Tian Yingdong's mind, as long as he slightly threw an olive branch, he should be non-stop straight to his seat to serve to the death.
About a meal, Tian Yingdong said goodbye and left, Sun Li ...... as if he had not come.
When Tian Yingdong left Lotus Terrace Village, he had the intention to draw in Sun Li as his own beloved team, but when he entered the Suhu Mountain, he suddenly realized that there are people who want to flatter himself, and he doesn't really need Sun Li, which is why he didn't come for a month before.
I didn't realize that Sun Li was kicked to the trash class, but he broke through the mortal realm without saying a word, Tian Yingdong must draw him in, if he doesn't draw him in, Sun Li will definitely fall to Qin Tianzhuang.
The good thing is that Tian Yingdong has the identity of a "township party" and feels that he has an inherent advantage over Qin Tianzhang. He is also like Sun Li guessed, think with his own identity, folded under the friendship, he Sun Li as long as not a fool, will quickly return to their own.
Not long after Tian Yingdong left, Su Lan's window quietly opened a crack, to see no one in the courtyard, he quickly opened the door, a flash slipped out.
He turned around seven times inside the Wangshan Special Courtyard and soon arrived outside a small independent courtyard and knocked on the door, "Senior Brother Qin, it's me, Su Lan."
The door to the courtyard opened and Qin Tianzhuang asked, "What's the situation?"
"Tian Yingdong just went to look for Sun Li."
Qin Tian Zhan's face changed slightly, "Oh?"
"I see that the two are chatting well."
Qin Tian Zhan's face instead flattened, "I see, keep staring."
Su Lan came out from Qin Tian Zhan and didn't walk far before a sinister and pleased smile appeared on his face.
He appeared to be telling the truth, but in reality, he had already misled Qin Tian Zhan into thinking that Sun Li had defected to Tian Ying Dong. Qin Tianzang's temperament was more violent than Tian Yingdong's, and Sun Li would definitely be in trouble.
"Originally thought that you were just a waste, I didn't expect that you actually broke through the Mortal Realm ahead of me, humph!" Su Lan's heart went crazy with jealousy, he had always fancied himself as the number one in the small courtyard, and when Sun Li suddenly broke through the Mortal Realm, he quickly grew from jealousy to hatred!
......
Not long after Tian Yingdong left, a disciple came to Sun Li's hut, "Sun Li, Chong Yin Seminar invites you to come."
Sun Li frowned and had some premonition: he was only afraid that he was still going to dwell on the fact that he had broken through the Mortal Realm.
He silently arrived at Chong Yin's office, unexpectedly there were several people in the office today besides Chong Yin. In the center, there was an old Taoist with a white beard and hair, and on each side there were two inner disciples, Chong Yin was just at the end of the seat of admiration.
Seeing Sun Li come in, Chong Yin said, "Sun Li, this is the Delusional Hijacking Master Uncle in our sect who specializes in new disciples."
Sun Li stepped forward and saluted, "Greetings, Master Uncle."
Daoist Delusion Hijacker gave a big nod, his eyes shining like fire as he glared at Sun Li, "You broke through the Mortal Realm within a month?"
"Precisely."
Delusional Robber snorted coldly, "Tell me how you broke through."
This attitude of his made Sun Li's heart unhappy, so his tone became a bit hard, "By following the steps and practicing hard, I naturally broke through."
"Hehehe! What a step-by-step, hard cultivation. With your qualifications, without any speculative methods, how could you break through to the Mortal Realm within a month?" Delusional Hijack sneered.
Sun Li didn't bother to say more, "Senior Uncle believe it or not, disciple's heart is not guilty is all."
"How dare you!" A Chong Zi generation disciple beside Delusionary Hijacking rebuked furiously, Delusionary Hijacking let out another cold laugh, and with a lift of his hand, an overwhelming force ripped Sun Li brutally over.
With a snap of his fingers, Delusionary Hijacker pointed at Sun Li's pulse.
A wave of spirit energy rushed into his body in an overbearing manner, charging across the board, intent on making him suffer some pain. Cold sweat broke out on Sun Li's forehead, but he clenched his teeth and didn't say a word.
In his mind, Luo Huan faintly said, "If you can't withstand even this bit of refinement, there's no need to delusionally seek the Great Dao."
Sun Li turned towards Delusional Robbery and suddenly grinned.
Delusion Juggernaut's eyes jumped wildly! His means were clear to himself, this kind of Spiritual Elemental Vein Searching pain, ordinary people absolutely couldn't withstand it, and would have already begged for mercy on their knees. This teenager not only endured without saying a word, but actually dared to smile at himself!
This kind of toughness of heart, Delusion Robbery asked himself that he could not do.
He originally still had some means of torturing Sun Li, but ghostly by that smile, the confidence will remember to shatter, do not dare to use out again.
Luo Huan's little technique was very useful, Delusional Robbery didn't even realize that Sun Li's inner body wasn't Heavenly River Spiritual Yuan.
He withdrew his hand and stroked his beard, "Indeed, he has broken through the first level of the Mortal Realm."
On second thought, he felt that he was a bit humiliated just now, although no one could see it, Delusionary Robber himself felt disgraced. He changed his tone, "Hmph, cultivation should not be fast, it should be steady and stable in order to have a solid foundation. Your own qualifications are not good, but also greedy for vanity, only seek to break through as soon as possible, now is a breakthrough, but the future is worrying, I'm afraid that all the time have to be put on the fire into the devil, and the foundation is unstable, the future achievements are also limited tight!"
After he finished, he led the people away.
Chong Yin sighed and said to Sun Li in a serious tone, "Sun Li, although the words of Master Delusion Hijacker are not pleasant to the ear, they are still reasonable."
"Like Tian Yingdong and the others who are in possession of Hui Roots, not only do they have an advantage in terms of qualifications, they are born with a deeper level of understanding of the Dharma techniques, thus they cultivate at a fast pace, but the possibility of going off the rails isn't very high. This is the advantage that disciples who reside in the Wisdom Roots have over ordinary disciples like you."
"It's too dangerous for you, don't be greedy and risky, it's too late to regret in the future for a moment's pain now ah ......"
While Delusion Robbery was pure mockery and ridicule, Chong Yin was bitter and genuinely worried for Sun Li. Although the words were not favorable, Sun Li could not be unaware of the good and bad, he bowed slightly, "Exercise don't worry, I know in my heart."
Chong Yin knew at a glance that his own words he did not hear to go, can only helplessly waved a hand: "Forget it, you go back."
Sun Li came out, still feeling stifled in his heart. Why is it that after his own breakthrough, the door was suspicious and sent a senior uncle over to check?
Wu Yao faintly threw in a sentence, "This world, is inherently so unfair."
......
From the academy through the past, through a small road to return to the Wangshan courtyard.
On the path, the breeze blew the grass in waves, and under the hot weather, there was a hint of coolness.
However, Sun Li felt a wave of oppression surging towards him from the eight wastelands. The surrounding green grass was catalyzed by an invisible force, tilting and ambling over in his direction.
"Killing Intent!" Wu Yao gave a low shout.
Sun Li's hand shook and a whistle stick appeared in his hand. He had specifically placed it in his storage ring. The whistling rod had just arrived in his hand when there was a sudden blur in front of his eyes, and a huge black shadow seemed to swoop out of the void, suddenly appearing in front of his eyes and rushing in front of him as fast as lightning.
Sun Li subconsciously was about to swing his stick.
Wu Yao let out another low shout, "Steady, the district is just a barrier!"
Sun Li fiercely clenched the big stick in his hand, and hardened himself to suppress the thought of striking.
That black shadow was like a moonlit night demonic bat pouncing in front of Sun Li, then it exploded into a piece of foggy black smoke with a bang and disappeared without a trace.
Almost at the same time, there was a harsh sound of wind at Sun Li's back, and as he violently turned around, the black shadow once again appeared abruptly, probing his palm and grabbing at him!
Sun Li had experience this time, gripping the whistle stick tightly and dragging it behind him, his body was bent into a bow, but he was storing but not firing, giving people a feeling that a cheetah was about to pounce.
Sure enough, Wu Yao faintly said, "Still an illusion, no need to panic."
That black shadow's big hand was also as black as ink, and the nails had a faint blue color, just like a devil's claw! Once grabbed on, it was bound to be a dead end.
The assassin had thought that this time, using an illusion to conjure up this poisonous claw, he would definitely be able to make Sun Li panic and strike out with a stick, and he would have a chance.
However, he did not expect Sun Li to be as steady as a rock, letting that "poisonous claw" grab his face and remain still.
The murderous aura on Sun Li's body was as solid as substance, elevating that ordinary whistle stick into a deadly weapon! If Sun Li didn't move, he didn't dare to act rashly.
"Boom!" The poisonous claw reached Sun Li's face, and sure enough, it exploded into a cloud of black smoke again.
The assassin had gotten a little impatient.
The first time with the illusion, the kid was stoic and could still be explained as having a firm heart. The second time he still didn't fall for it, there was something wrong. Before he started, he was instructed to know that this kid has a good kung fu, that is, he did not dare to take the front lightly. After all, this was supposed to be an operation in which he was unharmed and the target died a violent death.
Even if he suffered a small injury, it is also a failure! (Not much to say what, thank you all!)
