Chapter 108 Warrior Tomb

"Teacher Zhou, please go ahead." Bailiqi said.

"I heard that a warrior's tomb was discovered near Laojun Lake. It seems to be of a very high level. The lowest level should be that of a person at the peak of the Earth Realm."

"So we should be able to unearth a lot of treasures! Because this ancient tomb was discovered by people from several sects at the same time."

“So, in the end, these sects will carry out the excavation at the same time, and our Jiulianshan Sect is one of them.” Teacher Zhou said.

"Only top experts would be sent to such an ancient tomb. It has almost nothing to do with me." Bailiqi replied.

"We definitely sent some experts there, but later on, these sects discovered that this ancient tomb had a strange formation that they couldn't crack no matter what."

"This formation will create a great resistance to warriors who have reached the middle stage of the 'Earth Realm', but warriors who have reached the initial stage of the 'Earth Realm' can enter it very easily without any resistance."

"So, later on, these sects decided to let those who had just entered the 'Earth Realm' to go in. The sect leader then found me and asked me to discuss with you whether you are willing to go in and explore."

"Because for those who are just starting to cultivate in the Earth Realm, it is safest and most competitive to be at the ninth level. However, the head of the sect believes that your strength is not weaker than those who are just starting to cultivate in the ninth level of the Earth Realm, so I still hope that you can participate in this expedition."

"But the final decision is up to you. Perry won't force you to do so, because these expeditions are also very risky."

"So I came here this time specifically to ask for your opinion." Teacher Zhou said.

"Teacher Zhou, this is no problem. I plan to participate in this expedition. Please tell the headmaster."

After listening to what Teacher Zhou said, Bailiqi thought about it for a moment and agreed readily.

That's because he has been practicing a lot during this period, and he really wants to go out and move around. As the saying goes, when you are still for a long time, you will want to move.

Moreover, he has many trump cards in his hand, and he is not afraid of those who have just entered the ninth level of the "Earth Realm".

He also wanted to compete with them.

"Okay, I understand. Xiaoqi, what realm are you in now?" Teacher Zhou asked.

"I am currently at the fourth level of the 'Earth Realm'. But after talking with Zhongsun Jin Gang, I know that our cultivation level is still relatively low compared to the students of the same period in the Bright Sect."

Bailiqi said.

"Oh, so the Church of Light is so powerful?" Teacher Zhou replied in surprise.

"Yes, the realm of the 18-year-old students of the Bright Church is usually around the sixth level of the middle stage of the Earth Realm."

"But the twenty-year-old students in our sect may not be able to reach this level yet, right?" Baili Qi said.

"That's definitely not possible. The further you go in the future, the slower your level will be. It can be said to be extremely slow!"

"The cultivation level of around the sixth level of the middle stage of the Earth Realm is almost catching up with the cultivation level of some elders in our sect! How come the people of the Church of Light are so powerful?" Teacher Zhou replied.

"There are also many people in the Bright Church who practice the Five Elements Kung Fu. However, I heard that many people seem to suffer a lot when practicing the Five Elements Kung Fu."

“But it’s not very painful when we practice.” Bailiqi said.

"Is it because we eat the leaf-wrapped fruit together with the leaves?"

"Didn't you tell me to eat the leaves as well? Is this the key?" Teacher Zhou replied.

"This possibility is more likely, but logically speaking, the people of the Church of Light should also know this. Why don't they seem to know this?" Bailiqi said with some confusion.

"It's hard to say. Normally, most people wouldn't eat the leaves that wrap the fruit."

"Because since ancient times, there has never been a saying that you must eat the leaves when eating fruits." Teacher Zhou replied.

"But there are many people practicing the Five Elements Kung Fu in the Bright Church. Why do some people die from practicing the Five Elements Kung Fu, while others succeed in practicing the Five Elements Kung Fu?"

"Don't they share this information in the church?" Bailiqi said with some confusion.

"The possibility of not sharing information is probably none. The most likely possibility is that they don't know that the leaves of the fruit are to be eaten together."

“Those who have successfully cultivated may have eaten the leaves by accident,” Teacher Zhou analyzed.

"I have another question. How many of these leaf-wrapped fruits can we eat at most?" Bailiqi said.

"These things are unknown, so my personal advice is not to eat too much. To be safe, don't eat more than five." Teacher Zhou replied.

"In fact, as long as you eat it with the leaves, there will be basically no problem, because when the cold air attacks, there will be corresponding small umbrellas to resist the cold air, as if the leaves are the nemesis of the cold air."

"So I always feel that eating a few more is no big deal." Bailiqi's idea was a bit bold.

"If you really want to eat more, I suggest you do it gradually. Never eat too many fruits at once. I'm afraid what if you lose control?"

"You can do it step by step, taking one at a time. After a while, you can take another one and continue to observe the effects."

“If there are really no adverse reactions, continue to eat the fruit,” Teacher Zhou suggested.

"Teacher Zhou, your method is still feasible. Keep observing the effects. It's not like the more you eat, the better the effect will be. There should be an upper limit." Bailiqi said.

"Xiaoqi, get ready. The expedition may start soon. Be fully prepared." Teacher Zhou reminded.

"Okay, I understand." Bailiqi replied.

Teacher Zhou also went to report to the headmaster.

Teacher Zhou reported this to the headmaster, but the headmaster gave bad news because several other sects later changed their minds.

I am looking for some formation masters, and I still want to try to break the formation that limits my cultivation.

It is said that a high-level member of a sect has resources in this area and is trying to make contact with them. So we have to wait for this expedition to start. We can decide which personnel to send based on the results of cracking the formation. So we have to prepare two sets of plans for the participants.

Teacher Zhou immediately told Bailiqi this information.

Bailiqi is quite open-minded. It doesn't matter whether he goes or not.

When he is not participating in adventure activities, he concentrates on his cultivation.

It would be great if I could go on an adventure, to relax and stretch my muscles.

Most of Bailiqi's previous matches were with people of the same age, except for the one at the prime minister's birthday banquet in the capital, when he competed with geniuses under the age of 20.

Bailiqi also wanted to take a chance to prove his strength.

Even if the result disappoints you, it doesn’t matter much. After all, it is very important to know yourself.

Considering the uncertainty of the future, it is necessary to compete with people who are much stronger than you as early as possible.

Only in the process of competing with the strong can you feel the strong sense of oppression and have a stronger motivation to practice.

During this period of time, news also came from the capital. There was finally an explanation about the assassination of Shang Shulang and the assassination of Baili Qi in Yamen.

It turned out that Shang Shulang was assassinated by the steward of the Liu family in the capital.

The reason was that a few years ago, a close relative of Shang Shulang offended the housekeeper, but Shang Shulang used his connections to protect his close relative.

The result was that the steward of the Liu family in the capital city lost a lot of money.

The butler then held a grudge, and because he had no ability to retaliate against Shang Shu Lang, he kept waiting for the right opportunity and hired a few assassins to assassinate Shang Shu Lang.

The assassination attempt on Bailiqi in Yamen also came to a conclusion.

The mastermind behind the incident was still the steward of the Liu family in the capital, because the biggest reason for the failure of the assassination of Shang Shulang was Baili Qi.

Bailiqi released the poison that caused the assassination to fail, so the butler now had another target, Bailiqi.

He used his connections to find out Bailiqi's whereabouts, bribed some gangsters, and waited for an opportunity to assassinate Bailiqi, but he also failed in the end.

Under the severe interrogation of the Chief Justice, these assassins finally confessed the mastermind behind the incident, who was the steward of the Liu family in the capital.
