I became a saint by cultivating demons in a strange world

Chapter 74 The Fish Hooked
It is said that Li Xiao pretended to break through and entered the secret room.

On the other side, Xin Qin returned home and saw an old man in the late stage of Qi refining at her home.

Xin Qin was startled and asked, "Senior, who can I ask?"

The old man had a sinister look on his face and said, "Tell me everything you did with the monk named Liu Ming these two days..."

Xin Qin trembled, "I, I don't know anything..."

She immediately thought that this old man might be the master's enemy.

The old man said coldly, "You'd better tell me honestly, otherwise..."

Xin Qin slowly backed away, "This is Qianshan City, you don't dare to attack me in the city..."

It’s not that she would rather die than surrender;

But she thought that if she betrayed Li Xiao, her end would be even worse after his foundation building was successful.

But now, as long as she ran to the street and called the city patrol, the old man would not dare to do anything to her.

Unexpectedly, just as she was about to run away, a black rope appeared under her feet, trapping her tightly.

Even his mouth was locked with a black rope, preventing him from shouting.

The old man smiled evilly and said, "You can't take action in the city. That means you can't let the patrol see you. If you can't see it, you can do whatever you want.

You'd better ask and answer whatever you ask, otherwise, I'll let you know what life is worse than death..."

Xin Qin's eyes widened in horror.

If Li Xiao were here, he would definitely be able to guess the origin of this old man.

This old man must have been sent by the family that destroyed the Hunyuan Sect.

Back then, the Hunyuan Sect was destroyed by the King Wu's family.

The Wang family and the Liu family of the Hunyuan sect have never dealt with them.

After his ancestor was promoted to the middle stage of foundation building, he suddenly launched an attack and destroyed the Hunyuan Sect.

The ancestor of the Hunyuan Sect was only in the early stages of foundation building and could not break through.

As the young sect leader, Liu Ming escaped from the Kingdom of Wu with his junior sister Qi Sanniang under the desperate cover of everyone.

Originally, he wanted to practice magic skills in Wuliang Mountain and then come back to take revenge.

Unexpectedly, he was searched for his soul by Li Xiao, and now he was replaced by an imposter.

When he entered the city, he deliberately left his name behind and walked through the city in a swagger.
In fact, it was just to lure out Liu Ming's enemies.

This will not only confirm his identity, but also solve some worries.

But now it seems to be working well, and the enemy will come to your door within a few days.

When the old man saw that Xin Qin had still kept silent until now, his face was full of murderous intent.

"It's really toasting and not eating fine wine..."

Xin Qin felt murderous intent and said desperately, "If you kill someone in the city, you will be wanted..."

The old man said with a sinister smile, "I have one more wanted poster on my back, but one less one. The worst I can do is change my identity..."

Just when he was about to take action,

A cooing voice came, "What are you doing??"

But a girl in the middle stage of Qi refining rushed in.

She released a green flying sword and shot it at the old man.

The old man snorted coldly and released the black rope to block the flying sword.

However, this delay allowed Xin Qin to regain his composure and shouted, "Come here, help, there is someone committing murder here..."

The place where they live is not remote, and there are many monk neighbors around them.

This time the shouting and fighting attracted some people's attention.

The old man's expression changed, for fear of alerting the patrol team.

"I'll let you go today, don't let me catch you another day..."

As he spoke, the old man quickly left wrapped in black mist.

The girl rushed over to help Xin Qin and said anxiously, "Sister, are you okay?"

Xin Qin was still frightened, "I, I'm fine. Fortunately, you're back..."

The girl asked, "What on earth is going on, sister?"

Xin Qin said, "I don't know exactly what happened..."

She told about being hired by Li Xiao and her guess.The girl was shocked, "I'm afraid this is a grudge between the Ji Zhu family. What should we do?"

Xin Qin said, "Let's go out and hide for a while. The master is in retreat now. When he breaks through the foundation and comes out, let him make the decision for us..."

The girl said, "But what if that senior fails to break through..."

Xin Qin said resolutely, "I will definitely succeed, hey..."

In fact, she had nothing to do. At this point, she could only bet on Li Xiao.

If their breakthrough fails, then the two sisters are probably doomed.

Even if he escapes, it is not certain whether he can escape from the Kingdom of Wu.

She thought of something, took out a bottle of elixir, and handed it to the girl.

"This is the Wood Spirit Pill that can help people break through. Little sister, take it..."

The girl was surprised and said, "Sister, where did you get the elixir? This elixir is very expensive..."

She suddenly thought of something and her face looked a little ugly.

"Sister, you didn't give yourself to some senior, did you?"

Xin Qin nodded calmly.

The girl hesitated to speak, and finally sighed, "Thank you for your hard work, sister. When you called that senior, I should have thought that you should keep this elixir..."

Xin Qin said, "You have better qualifications than me. Only if you break through the late stage of Qi refining and even build the foundation can our Xin family rise again..."

The girl hesitated for a moment, "Okay, I'll keep it first. If you, sister, reach the third level of Qi Refining first, this Wood Spirit Pill will help you break through to the middle stage of Qi Refining..."

The two discussed it and decided to take out their savings and rent a room in the inner city to hide for a while, waiting for Li Xiao to come out of confinement.

Public security in the inner city is much better than in the outer city.

But the consumption is high, which is too much pressure for low-level monks like them.

But now I can’t care so much for safety.

By the way, Li Xiao was pretending to be in seclusion, but he didn't know that Liu Ming's enemies had already come to visit him.

He was indeed fishing on purpose.

But I didn't expect that the Xin Qin sisters would be affected.

In the secret room, he felt the rich spiritual energy,
"It is indeed a secret room dedicated to the second-level high-grade breakthrough. It is indeed rich in spiritual energy..."

Now that the curse on him has been lifted, he can travel to the strange world with peace of mind.

However, before traveling back and forth, he planned to refine the Soul-Eating Banner and the Soul-Inducing Bell first, and try to combine the two spiritual weapons into one.

"I happen to have a weapon-refining technique that I collected from Qian Rong. I might try it..."

He first dug out some materials left by Qian Rong and tried to start refining the weapon.

After refining some materials, I haven't started yet.

Li Xiao frowned and said, "No matter what skill it is, it does require talent. It seems that I don't have the talent to refine weapons..."

In order to practice formation formation, the predecessor took at least a year to get started, and it took another ten years to reach the level of a first-level high-grade formation mage.

He wanted to learn the art of weapon refining in a day or two, but he was actually overthinking it.

"Forget it, you have to admit that your talent is not enough, let's ask Master Tiandao for help..."

So with a thought, he entered the state of enlightenment.

In the state of enlightenment, his understanding of weapon refining skills improved by leaps and bounds.

When refining the Skinned Girl, he obtained ten copies of Daoyun, used one to break through to the middle stage of foundation building, and now has nine copies left.

In other words, he can enter the state of enlightenment for nine days.

And his thoughts can stay in the Tao Palace for nine full years.

Although you can't really practice refining weapons with materials during this period,
But you can continue to simulate it with your thoughts.

Nine days later, Li Xiao exited the state of enlightenment.

After he opened his eyes, the light flashed.

In these nine days, he not only improved his weapon refining skills to the second level,
He also refined all the captured weirdos and upgraded the Yinsha Yuanshen Jue to the middle stage of foundation building.

In the previous breakthrough, he used the Blood Demon Technique.

And now the Yin Sha Yuan Shen Jue has also broken through to the middle stage of foundation building.

This made his magic power much deeper.
