Chapter 164 Obtaining the Ultimate Yuanling Pill

One month later.

Under the arrangement of the Jiang family's top leaders, Li An and Jiang Ruoshi left together and headed for Dali.

Jiang Ruoshi brought few people, including Li An as a "guide", a total of only eight people, but among them there were two fake Dan masters, two perfect foundation building masters, and two late foundation building masters.

Very high configuration!

They moved very quickly. In a few days, they had crossed the mountains and forests and sneaked into Dali.

On the way, Jiang Ruoshi consulted Li An about many places, as well as the original division of forces in the north of Dali, etc. He also took out many maps and inspected and verified them one by one.

Li An guessed that this was the final preparation before the war!

Over the years, the Jiang family must have sent many people to infiltrate the north of Dali, draw maps, and find out the situation.

But before the war, there was something important that required Jiang Ruoshi, the core of the family, to come out in person.

Li An followed, while silently guessing the Jiang family's plan.

Afterwards, Jiang Ruoshi asked Li An to lead the way and personally went to Wanzhangyuan, but he did not go in. He just determined the location and the surrounding mountains and roads, and marked them on the map.

"Do you know the people of Shenjian Sect?"

After entering the former Qingfeng Village for a rest, Jiang Ruoshi took the map and studied the markings for a long time before looking up and asking.

"Shenjian Sect is one of the Jindan forces in the north of Dali. It has a deep foundation, but I haven't dealt with it much..."

Li An answered honestly.

Jiang Ruoshi nodded and said, "Well, you wait for us here. I have something important to do."

Obviously, Li An's role is to lead them to Wanzhangyuan. After figuring out the path, Li An is not qualified to participate in the next things.

"Sir,"

Li An said respectfully, "I wonder how long I need to wait?"

"At least two months, at most half a year."

Jiang Ruoshi spoke calmly, but before leaving, he set up a second-level trap around the village!

Obviously, they were afraid that Li An would run away and reveal their secrets.

So to some extent, they put Li An under "house arrest" first.

After they left.

"Two months, that's enough..."

Li An's eyes lit up.

He carefully looked for the flaws of the second-level trap array, studied it for a long time, and with the help of Shangguan Xiaoxiao, he passed the trap array and left quickly. He captured a bandit in a small mountain village nearby, refined him into a flesh and blood puppet, and put him back in Qingfeng Village, turning him into the same appearance as him.

This was to prevent Jiang Ruoshi and others from returning suddenly.

Then he went to a forest near Wanzhangyuan and dug out the storage bag he had buried there.

In the bag were two small swords, Black Poison and Ice, and two pieces of Jiejie Jade.

With two third-level flying swords in hand, Li An's sense of security was blocked, and he went straight to Baihu City.

Ten days later, he arrived at Baihu City.

He first found Zhao Yi in a town outside Baihu City.

Zhao Yi was arranged by him to observe Baihu City.

After reading Zhao Yi's memory, he got a lot of news!

The Dali Dynasty has undergone further drastic changes!

During the decades since Li An left Dali, two uncles of the Dali Dynasty broke through the Nascent Soul stage, and the number of Nascent Souls increased to five!

The strength has increased greatly.

And sent experts to recapture the northern border and rebuild Tianyang City.

The White Tiger City, the Hundred Beast Sect, and the Divine Sword Sect in the northern border were also directly annexed by the Dali royal family. It is said that only some remnants escaped.

Now Baihu City is under the control of the Dali royal family.

Moreover, the Dali royal family has also sent troops to attack another neighboring country, the Chen Kingdom, and it is said that they have achieved many results.

"Shangguan Shengxian..."

Li An couldn't help but be awed.

All this must be inseparable from this witch!

At the same time, he also guessed the Jiang family's plan.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Dali Empire was conquering the Chen Kingdom and had no time to look north, they suddenly took action to take over the northern border, or at least the land where the Wanzhang Abyss was located.

Jiang Ruoshi should be looking for the remnants of the Divine Sword Sect now.

Inside and outside!

The plan was very well made and the plot was excellent.

But the ending...

Li An didn't think much about it. He changed his identity and entered Baihu City.

He was extremely cautious. He found a place to stay in Baihu City and observed the ancient well where he buried the elixir for half a month.

Nothing unusual.

Late one night, he quietly sneaked into it and dug out the soul-locking black box he buried that year.

Early the next morning, he quickly left Baihu City.

The whole process went smoothly.

The main reason was that his aura could change at any time, and the city could not detect the magic aura on him at all.

In the vast sea of ​​people, as long as he was not locked by a special aura, it would be too difficult to defend against him.

Besides, who would have thought that such a dilapidated ancient well would actually hide the top-grade Yuanling Pill buried by someone a hundred years ago?

Li An buried it deep, dozens of meters below the ancient well. Even if the ancient well is rebuilt, the soul-locking black box will not be found.

"This top-grade Yuanling Pill, could it be buried here more than a hundred years ago when you and Xu Qiuhui and others planned the Yuanling Pill??"

Shangguan Xiaoxiao couldn't help but speak, she remembered the past a hundred years ago.

At that time, Xu Qiuhui and Zhang Deyi asked Li An to cooperate in refining the Yuanling Pill.

The ending was that Zhang Deyi was killed, but he only refined one real pill and one inferior pill. At that time, Baihu Mountain carefully investigated and thought that Zhang Deyi had indeed failed to refine the top-grade Yuanling Pill.

But now, Li An actually dug out one from the ground dozens of meters deep? ? ?

How could she not be convinced...

"Li Gou, Li Gou, you are really... a dog!"

She was speechless.

What kind of person is this, hiding the top-grade Yuanling Pill and burying it for hundreds of years before digging it out! !

If the enemy had a shorter life span, he would have outlasted them in the past hundred years.

However, thinking of how Li An had stayed in the stinking ditch mud for twenty-two years just to be cautious, she suddenly felt that it was understandable...

...

Leaving Baihu City, Li An burned three flying talismans without hesitation.

Rush back to the Sijing Mountains and Qingfeng Village.

After observing for a long time outside and confirming that Jiang Ruoshi and others had not returned, Li An was relieved.

He pondered for a long time, and repeatedly investigated and deduced around.

"The Jiang family will lose!"

This is his conclusion.

Even if they succeed for a while, the Jiang family will definitely not be the opponent of Dali in the end.

Nothing else, this is Li An's confidence in Shangguan Shengxian!

"There will definitely be a fierce battle in Wanzhang Abyss..."

The Jiang family attaches too much importance to Wanzhang Abyss. The tense place of the battle must be the core area that the Jiang family is unwilling to rest assured, that is Wanzhang Abyss.

After repeated deductions, he set up multiple second-level formations in several secret places leading to the Wanzhang Abyss.

Currently, he has no third-level formations available!

"Why are you doing this?"

In his mind, Shangguan Xiaoxiao couldn't help but ask.

Li An's behavior seemed a bit crazy.

"What if the Jiang family sends me to fight?"

Li An didn't hide it and said, "When the war breaks out, maybe these formations will be of some use."

You have to keep some tricks up your sleeve!

Although he is unlikely to go to the front line, it doesn't matter if he plays a casual chess game next.

"Really... Survive!"

Shangguan Xiaoxiao sighed again!

There is really a reason why Li An can survive until now in the storm.

He is simply dying!

Li An turned around and sneaked back to the mountain stronghold to destroy the puppet that replaced him.

Until two months later.

Jiang Ruoshi and others returned and took Li An back to the Jiang family.

Li An noticed that Jiang Ruoshi was very proud and had a very confident look.

It seems that Jiang Ruoshi will definitely gain something from this trip, and this battle is inevitable...

...

A dozen days later, they returned to the Jiang family.

After Jiang Ruoshi's return, Qingzhou immediately prepared for war. Led by the Jiang family, Mingdao Sect, Xu Ning Temple, etc. were also preparing, and the dark clouds of war were looming!

The war was about to break out.

And the number of tasks imposed on each hall was increasing.

Li An was not in a hurry and completed the tasks according to the number. Anyway, the tasks he received on the surface were only second-level runes, which were not difficult and time-consuming.

In fact, the resources of the Jiang family did not rely entirely on Zhike Peak, but also purchased a large amount from other forces, and the supply from Zhike Peak was only a part.

But Li An was not in a hurry. At this time, Feng Yuancheng and Zhang Meng, who finally came out of seclusion, were a little restless!

Because they came out of seclusion for a year and found that Xuanwu Hall had not collapsed!

Li An is still Shangqing...

They are a little upset!

Originally they thought that Li An would not be able to complete the talisman plan without them, but everything is running normally?

Doesn't that mean that Xuanwu Hall will be the same with or without them?

Moreover, after the retreat period, their monthly task completion amount will be counted into the assessment.

However, Li An does not assign them any tasks now!

Let their task amount be zero!

If it continues for half a year, Li An can propose to expel the two of them...

"Shangqing Wu, we have come out of retreat, why don't you give us tasks?"

Feng Yuancheng and the others found Li An and spoke unconvincedly.

"You two have just come out of retreat, and your cultivation needs to be stabilized. Wait a few more days, otherwise Wu Qin will not be able to bear it--"

Li An smiled and sent them away.

The two were so angry that they jumped up and down, and secretly went to the family to complain, but Li An had already informed Jiang Xinda and the Eighth Master that Li An wanted to deal with the two guest officials, and they didn't care at all.

Now that the head of the family is in seclusion and the power of the family is in the hands of Jiang Ribai, the two have nowhere to turn to and are as anxious as ants on a hot pot.

Even one night, Zhang Meng took the initiative to find Li An, crying and saying that she had been bewitched by Feng Yuancheng before, begging Li An for forgiveness and preparing to apologize with her body.

Li An politely asked her to leave.

"The Jiang family will definitely lose, but as long as it doesn't fall directly, it doesn't matter. After this big battle, the merits I have accumulated will be enough to exchange for inferior Yuanling Pills. At that time, I can naturally apply for Dan formation..."

"Dan formation is in sight!"

Three to five years will be enough. By then, Li An's cultivation will naturally reach the great perfection of foundation building.

Everything is going well.

"The time for sending troops has been set, next month!"

There are more and more rumors about the war.

"Three core members of the family will also lead troops to fight and gain experience in blood and fire in this war!"

This news caught Li An's attention. He confirmed the authenticity of the news from Jiang Xinda and others.

Moreover, this was arranged by Jiang Ribai himself.

For a while, Li An thought a lot based on the situation of the Jiang family.

Now, the three core members of the Jiang family are competing for supremacy. They are Jiang Ruoxu and Jiang Ruoli, descendants of the head of the family Jiang Rilan, and Jiang Ruhong, the descendant of the Zhendan elder Jiang Risheng.

Ruoli has the strongest talent, but currently has the weakest cultivation.

Jiang Ribai's descendants Jiang Ruoshi and others failed in the competition, and they were able to enter the feast of power because of Jiang Ruoli and Lihua.

In this war led by Jiang Ribai, anything can happen...

If Jiang Ruoxu and Jiang Ruhong died in the battle, or were disabled...

It's all normal, right?

Then Ruoli will be the only option.

Jiang Ruoli is a woman after all. If Jiang Ribai arranges her to get engaged to Jiang Ruoshi or something, Jiang Ribai will completely take charge of the Jiang family in the future.

And to kill Jiang Ruoxu and Jiang Ruhong in the war, they must not do it openly, but use shady means... Li An inexplicably remembered the talismans he had made in private.

All of this came from his deduction based on human nature!

But Li An felt that it was probably like this!

Jiang Ribai is not a saint, power is his lifeblood!

"Other people in the Jiang family should not have noticed this..."

Li An pondered.

Especially the head of the family, Jiang Ruolan, who has been in seclusion for these years, leaving the power to Jiang Ribai...Isn't this too abnormal?

People in the vortex of Jiang family power will be blinded by these things and it is not easy to see them clearly.

But Li An, watching from the sidelines, can keenly perceive a little bit of something wrong.

Mainly, after several lives, Li An's sense of smell and intuition are extraordinary. His experience tells him that when something goes smoothly and unbelievably smoothly, it is often the time when big problems are about to occur...

This makes him inexplicably worried.

These things are actually not very related to Li An. He doesn't care about the power transfer of the Jiang family. He doesn't even care about Ruoli's life or death.

But this is his habit. When he is in a big situation, he must consider it from the perspective of the person in power, so that he can make the most favorable choice for himself, so as not to become cannon fodder or sacrifice unknowingly.

Most of the people at the bottom are sacrifices, no different from firewood - only with the ability to think and analyze can you get a chance to escape before entering the fire pit.

"Hmm?"

Just when Li An was worried, one day, he suddenly noticed that another young core figure in the family, Jiang Ruoxu, came to Zhike Peak.

He went to the Tan Mansion.

At this time, why did Jiang Ruoxu come here to find Tan Qingxue instead of preparing for the expedition?

Although Li An kept his distance from Tan Qingxue, he also roughly knew that she had only done one thing over the years!

Researching how to restore the vitality of the Blue Flame Divine Bird Egg.

After Jiang Ruoxu left, Li An hesitated for a long time and decided to go to the Tan Mansion. One was to find out Jiang Ruoxu's intention of coming here, and the other was to lay the groundwork for his other plan...

Holding the Divine Egg to control the Jiang family!

This opportunity is mainly used to improve his status in the Jiang family!

Even if Li An will be suspected after forming a pill, if he is tied to the Jiang family's Divine Egg, only he can treat the Jiang family's Divine Egg, then the benefits he wants can naturally be obtained from the Jiang family.

The Jiang family is a Yuanying family. Even after Li An forms a pill, he is still very useful to him!

This is a long-term plan!

For this plan, he has been preparing for these years and collected a lot of spiritual medicines for treating spiritual beast injuries.

One of them, he has cultivated for a long time, deliberately using the green breath in the Dantian to cultivate it.

In this way, this herb will have a little magical effect, and even Tan Qingxue can't tell its origin.

Sending this herb to Tan Qingxue will have some effect on the divine egg, but the effect is not too great. It is just a prelude. When Li An shows his ability next, it will be a natural result...

Li An immediately brought many magical herbs and knocked on the door of Tan's house.
