Tianhai Xiantu

Li Qing was in retreat.

A new round of competition has begun among the outside world.

In the Demon Suppressing Hall.

The list that represents the monks' contribution points is constantly changing.

The ordinary foundation-building monks were coming and going, and they all looked at the changes in the rankings with envy.

Ranking first is a monk named Zhong Yuan.

Zhong Yuan—a disciple of Guiyuan Sword Sect—contributed nine thousand two hundred points.

"Senior Brother Zhong Yuan is probably the core swordsman of Guiyuan Sword Sect at present."

"It is said that in the last mission, one person fought against two demonic cultivators at the peak of Foundation Establishment. Not only that, he actually killed a demonic cultivator at the peak of Foundation Establishment."

"Such strength is truly terrifying."

In the main hall, a foundation-building monk wearing a blue shirt looked at the names on the ranking list and said with envy.

"I have also heard about this senior brother. It is said that he is very popular among the new generation of disciples."

"According to legend, these geniuses have already secretly decided on the treasure to form a pill."

"In the later stage, it will definitely be the new generation of Jin Dan Zhenren"

A fellow disciple who was in the early stages of foundation building also said the same thing.

"Haha, I was lucky enough to meet this senior brother when I went to Guiyuan Sword Sect."

Another person added.

"But they actually have so many contribution points, why haven't they exchanged them for treasures?"

"I think the Yangyuan Root that is useful for forming elixirs only has 8,000 contribution points."

"Such a cherished thing has a great effect on forming elixirs."

At this time, another person said doubtfully.

"hehe"

At this time, a tall monk carrying a long sword walked in from the side. This man was wearing the robe of the Guiyuan Sword Sect.

The fierce momentum made several people around him quickly get out of the way.

The sneer just now was made by this person.

The other people saw that this disciple of Guiyuan Sword Sect was in the late stage of foundation establishment, and they still didn't dare to say anything even in the face of the other party's sneer.

"A few fellow Taoists are short-sighted."

"How can a genius like Senior Brother Zhong value something as ordinary as Yangyuan Root?"

The tall Guiyuan Sword Sect monk stopped and looked at the ranking list and said coldly.

"Besides, this ranking is the fairest one. You need to rely on your own strength to kill demon cultivators. If such a ranking is just for exchanging treasures, wouldn't it fall into the trap of convention?"

After saying this, the man pretended to shake his head and left the hall.

Only a few people were left standing there looking confused.

After seeing the disciple of Guiyuan Sword Sect leave, the monk on one side whispered quietly: "I heard that Guiyuan Sword Sect seems to encourage its disciples to kill demon cultivators and compete for the rankings."

"It is said to be related to the ranking within the sect."

""

There was another murmur all around.

Look down the first place.

Almost all of the top twenty monks are talented monks from the five major forces.

The rest of the small sects are simply unable to compete.

Ranked fourth was Su Yunzi-Ding Yao, whom Li Qing had met before.

Ding Yao—a disciple of the Qianshui Yuling Sect—contributed 8,200 points.

Li Qing's name in retreat is also on the ranking list.

Li Qing—a disciple of the Qianshui Yuling Sect—contributed 2,400 points.

This was the reason why he killed the peak foundation-building demon cultivator last time.

The last mission also allowed him to earn some contribution points.

This ranking only displays the top two hundred ranked disciples.

Li Qing's name has long been ranked among the top 100.

Of course, not every monk needs to kill demon cultivators in exchange for contribution points, and can also perform some other tasks.

But if you want to enter the list, your hands must be stained with the blood of demon cultivators.

Li Qing, who was in seclusion, didn't know about this matter.

Time flies and one year passes.

In a cave in the back mountain.

Li Qing's figure finally slowly walked out of the cave and came to the courtyard outside.

The last few spiritual orifices seem to be few in number, but in fact each one requires a huge amount of energy to open.

From sixty-eight spiritual orifices to seventy-one spiritual orifices, it took him a full year to open these three spiritual orifices.

This is because Li Qing consumed a large amount of thunder treasures to achieve such speed.

Li Qing couldn't help but sigh that the speed of cultivation was so fast after having the spirit stone.

He doesn't have to worry about resource consumption at all.

Although it was the end of the retreat, he successfully reached the second level of Lei Ling Jue's Great Perfection.

But there was no smile on Li Qing's face, instead he looked depressed.

He finally obtained the Thunder Spirit Technique to advance to high-level physical training from that jade slip.

As for the method of promotion, he was speechless.

After arriving outside, Li Qing slowly opened his palms.

Gradually, several sharp electric arcs jumped a few times.

A round purple object the size of a fingernail emerged from his hand.

This thing is the thunder species that introduced Li Qing to the door in the first place.

The prerequisite for practicing the Thunder Spirit Technique is to condense a thunder seed as an introduction to absorb the power of thunder to refine the body.

Later in the practice, this thing gradually became invisible.

He didn't expect that this kind of thunder was the key to advancing to high-level physical training.

Li Qing even thought about it, just like before, if he was promoted in physical training first, then the subsequent pill formation would be even smoother.

After all, you already have the strength of Jin Dan, so doing anything is easier and less troublesome.

But now it seems that this matter is probably going to come to nothing.

If a physical cultivator wants to be promoted to a high-level physical cultivator, he must condense five thunder runes with different attributes.

These five runes condense what is needed. Li Qing only recognized an ancient spiritual plant called Thunder Sun Wood.

This kind of treasure has long since disappeared and is impossible to collect.

All the other spiritual objects provided are hard to find.

It seems unrealistic to want to be promoted through this.

The Thunder Spirit Art also provides another simple way.

The records in the Thunder Spirit Jue are simple.

Use the essence, blood, soul, and demon pills of five big demons with different thunder systems to refine the required thunder runes.

Basically, it requires the complete refining of the demon corpse of the thunder system.

This is simply a fantasy.

The power of the thunder system is known for its fierce combat power. The combat power of the third-level thunder system demon is far better than that of ordinary golden elixir monks.

Li Qing had met him once at an auction before. Even the separate auctions of demon souls and demon elixirs caused many golden elixir practitioners to compete for them.

It is also impossible to buy it.

Besides, that kind of auction is hard to come by.

It is impossible for him to cultivate his physical skills to a high-level monk in a short period of time.

You can only think of a solution after your own Dharma practice and promotion to Golden Elixir.

Li Qing looked towards the courtyard.

A huge shadow fell on a corner of the courtyard.

At this time, the Star Turtle was promoted to the late second level with Li Qing's accumulation of resources.

The only time he went out was to help the Star Turtle get promoted.

At this time, the Sky Star Turtle was already ten feet in size.

After this year, Li Qing still had unexpected gains.

Yu Ling and Heishan Yunqi successfully found five elixirs.

Of course, the cost is also huge. This kind of elixir was even snatched from the hands of Jindan Zhenren at an auction.

In just one year, a total of 800,000 low-grade spiritual stones had slipped away from Li Qing's hands.

Including the spiritual objects he consumed in retreat and the cost of purchasing rare elixirs, as well as the treasures purchased for the purple-winged centipede.

Even in order to speed up the cultivation speed of the Blue Water Serpent, some pills were purchased.

The speed at which this spirit stone was consumed was simply jaw-dropping.

Even someone like Li Qing, who didn't care about spending, felt heartbroken.

Although there is still a treasure from the Golden Core Demonic Cultivator in his hand that has not yet been released, it is too conspicuous and Li Qing does not intend to deal with it in the short term.

"it's okay no problem"

Li Qing forced himself to comfort himself.

The next step is for him to start earning spiritual stones.

Now that he has finally completed his promotion, he has to start accumulating contribution points immediately.

Whoosh!

A fire crystal ant flew out.

Then a blazing red light flashed.

The fire crystal ants in the air disappeared instantly.

The purple-winged firecracker appeared in front of Li Qing from the corner.

With Li Qing's previous training, Yu Ling came again and sent a batch of eliminated fire crystal ants.

Just in time to feed this purple-winged centipede.

"Let's go"

Li Qing said casually.

The purple-winged centipede landed directly on his shoulder, and then disappeared under his robe.

It quickly gathered all its power.

If Li Qing hadn't felt the warmth on his shoulders, it would have been difficult to notice.

After putting away the Star Turtle, Li Qing walked towards the Demon Suppression Hall.

In the main hall, people were still coming and going.

Even more prosperous than before.

The monks in the entire Haoyuan Sea have discovered it. If they want to earn resources, it is faster to come to the Demonic Sea.

That was the entire territory originally occupied by the Ziyun Sect, and there were countless spiritual treasures.

Right now anyone is up for grabs.

You can also kill demon cultivators in exchange for contribution points, which are another kind of treasure.

Even the golden elixir promotion items were taken out, which shows the determination of the five major forces.

However, after several years of hunting each other, the number of demon cultivators has not decreased at all. On the contrary, there is a faint intention to continue to grow and develop.

After all, the demon cultivators were still acting secretly, and now they are even accepting disciples openly.

Not only did some of the original monks join the Ghost King Sect, but in that vast territory, demonic cultivators also often appeared among the common people to recruit disciples.

Li Qing looked towards the top of the ranking list.

Ranked first is a monk named Zhong Yuan.

Zhong Yuan—a disciple of Guiyuan Sword Sect—contributed twelve thousand points.

Hu Fan—a disciple of Guiyuan Sword Sect—contributed 10,100 points.

Ding Yao—a disciple of the Qianshui Yuling Sect—contributed 10,500 points.

Kuang Yi—a disciple of the Beast Spirit Sect—contributed 9,800 points.

Kun Yan—disciple of the Earth Fire Sect—contributed 9,600 points

""

Li Qing looked at some of the previous rankings.

It can be seen from the list that all the five major forces attach great importance to this matter.

This is also an open and honest battle between the geniuses of the major forces.

Among the monks in the front row, only one from Ziyun Sect was ranked eighth, and there were relatively few other monks.

He even saw the name of Chao Xizi Luo Hong, but this person was not very tall and ranked in the thirties.

Li Qing glanced at the person at the top of the list, Zhong Yuan, again.

This person is a bit scary. Twelve thousand contribution points require killing twelve demon cultivators at the peak of foundation building.

Even if there were other demon cultivators, at least six or seven foundation-building peak demon cultivators died in his hands.

More importantly, being able to return safely is a person's trump card.

However, Li Qing did not see another genius, Shui Yuzi-Lu Ziming, one of the four Qianyu sons.

This guy doesn't even appear on the leaderboard.

Of course, Li Qing doesn't have it now, he has been thrown away a long time ago.

This water prince Lu Ziming is very low-key, and even Li Qing has not heard much about him.

He only appeared once during the last war.

There is only this person within the sect, and there is very little news about him.

Li Qing came here not to receive a mission, but to get an accurate map of the Demon Sea Area.

He must have planned to go it alone.

It's hard for me to give my best when there are other people around.

What's more, he doesn't need to simply join a group to keep warm, because he is secretive enough on his own.

After arriving at a room.

Li Qing immediately explained his purpose to an old man inside.

"It turns out that Fellow Daoist Li plans to act alone."

The old man said with a smile.

According to the regulations of the Demon Slayer Alliance, only monks at the peak of foundation building are qualified to kill demon cultivators alone.

The rest have to disobey the arrangements or accept some real-time tasks.

Of course, this is also for the benefit of the disciples below. If you are not at the peak of foundation building, what qualifications do you have to go deep into it and kill the demon cultivators alone.

"This is a detailed map of the Demon Sea Area"

"This map contains detailed information about various areas."

"Including some of the powerful branches currently known to be occupied by demonic cultivators."

As he spoke, the old man handed over a black animal skin.

Li Qing thanked him and walked outside.

As soon as he walked into the main hall, he saw an acquaintance.

It was Ding Yao who had performed the mission together before.

"Senior Sister Ding"

Since we met him head-on, Li Qing still needed to say hello.

"It turns out to be Junior Brother Li"

Ding Yao said with a smile on her face.

Her voice sounded crisp and lively, which was quite different from her calm face.

"I didn't expect that my junior brother could escape from the hands of that golden elixir demon cultivator despite being so well hidden."

Ding Yao rarely said a few more words.

"Senior Sister Ding is joking. You were also in the situation last time. The demon cultivator was severely injured by the two elders, which gave me a chance to escape," Li Qing said with a smile.

"That's why my junior brother can escape only if he has the strength."

The two of them exchanged a few words with each other before saying goodbye and leaving.

After a while, he saw Ding Yao walking towards the room where he was. It seems that he also needs to receive the map and carry out the mission alone.

After all, the opposite magic cultivator is changing, and the map will be updated frequently.

Right at the door where Li Qing had just left the main hall.

A transmission note trembled again.

Seeing this, he checked the information inside.

Soon Li Qing showed a strange smile.

This transmission note came from Mu Qiyun.

The main news inside is that the real competition for Xuanyinzi will begin in a year.

In other words, he needs to accumulate his contribution points within a year.

Mu Qiyun also deliberately reminded Li Qing.
