The rising sun in the morning was always gentle and warm. Dewdrops adorned the lush green leaves, adding a touch of brightness.
Even with the warm sun shining on them, it was difficult to stop the early risers from hurrying to their respective destinations.
Yang Li walked leisurely on the official road with a freshly plucked grass in his mouth. He seemed out of place with the carriages and pedestrians on both sides. Yang Li looked at the pedestrians on both sides, then at the city gate not far away, and thought to himself.
"This is the fourth city I've passed this month. I've been sleeping in the open for almost a month. It's time for a good rest. I'll also ask around to see if there are any newly discovered secret areas!"
When Yang Li arrived at the city gate, the dozens of guards at the gate stood there like wooden stakes. There were also a few others who dutifully checked everyone's identity. Of course, they also had to pay some entrance fees.
Although gold and silver were used a lot among mortals, spirit stones were also used. A low-grade spirit stone was worth a hundred gold coins. Yang Li casually threw a spirit stone to the guard and entered the city under the constant gratitude of the guard.
After all, one spirit stone was enough for the guard to live a good life for a year. Among mortals, things were relatively cheap.
The vendors in the city had already set up their stalls early. They placed all kinds of things on display and began to shout. There was no shortage of food, drink, and entertainment.
There was also a juggler not far away. Yang Li couldn't help but feel a little interested. He went over and watched with great interest.
"Ding ~"
A crisp sound rang out. There was an extra spirit stone in the juggler's bowl. Yang Li couldn't help but look up. He saw that the juggler threw a spirit stone and left. Yang Li looked at the back of the juggler and was surprised at first. Then, his lips curled into a smirk.
The juggler was dressed in black and carried a knife wrapped in black cloth on his back. In front of him was a middle-aged strong man who didn't care about his appearance. Judging from his appearance and body shape, he should be Jiang Yuan and his master.
Yang Li sped up a little and bumped into Jiang Yuan with his shoulder. Then, he glanced at him and continued walking forward.
"Why are you banging? Don't you have eyes? "Jiang Yuan said angrily.
"Hmm? So what if I accidentally bumped into you? How could he have such a bad temper! "Yang Li pretended to be disdainful.
At this time, Yang Li was wearing a mask of character. With Jiang Yuan's cultivation level, he naturally could not see through Yang Li's identity.
However, after hearing the quarrel between the two, Xiong Zhou also looked toward Yang Li. After observing for a while, he laughed. It seemed that he had seen through Yang Li's identity, but he did not tell Jiang Yuan. He crossed his arms in front of his chest and looked like he was watching a good show.
Jiang Yuan instantly flared up when he heard Yang Li's words, and he said, "Kid, you're courting death!"
"I wonder who's courting death! What, do you want to spar? "Yang Li snorted coldly.
"Master, I can't take it anymore!" Jiang Yuan's chest heaved up and down as he looked at Xiong Zhou and said.
The corner of Xiong Zhou's mouth twitched and he thought, "Since you want to get beaten up, then I can't stop you. But that's fine, I'll let you suffer a blow so that you won't be arrogant every day."
Thinking of this, Xiong Zhou casually set up a barrier and jokingly said, "If you can't take it, then don't. Master will set up a barrier for you. Outsiders will not be able to see your situation, and it will also prevent the aftermath of your battle from affecting mortals. Finish it quickly, master will leave first."
When Xiong Zhou said to finish it quickly, his eyes were looking at Yang Li, then he turned around and left. He naturally saw through Yang Li's identity. When Yang Li was at the first level of the Spirit Movement Realm, he was able to beat Jiang Yuan black and blue. After four to five months, Yang Li's cultivation had directly climbed to the fourth level of the Spirit Movement Realm.
Even though Jiang Yuan was now at the eighth level of the Spirit Movement Realm, and his battle strength was close to the Spirit Realm, he would still be beaten up by Yang Li.
What made Xiong Zhou even more puzzled was the growth of Yang Li's cultivation. Yang Li's growth was too fast. Every level of the Spirit Movement Realm required a few months or even longer. He didn't know how many pills he bought for Jiang Yuan, but Jiang Yuan only managed to advance two levels in four to five months.
"This kid is a monster, but the two seem to have a good relationship, so there's no need to worry. Hmm, since we meet again, I'll let Jiang Yuan follow Yang Li. I'm sure he'll get a lot of good stuff." Xiong Zhou thought as he walked. At the same time, he separated a part of his divine sense to observe Yang Li and Jiang Yuan.
"Kid! Since my master has agreed for me to make a move, then go die! " Seeing his master leave, Jiang Yuan roared. He didn't notice that Xiong Zhou said to finish it quickly, but it was directed at Yang Li.
"He saw through my identity!" Yang Li looked at the departing Xiong Zhou and thought. He then said to Jiang Yuan: "Trash, watch me beat you up!"
Because there was a barrier set up by Xiong Zhou, there was no need to worry about mortals being affected. Therefore, Yang Li directly removed the spear from his back, turned his body, and stabbed at Jiang Yuan's chest.
Jiang Yuan didn't want to be outdone. He also took out his own blade and raised it to meet the attack.
Although there was a difference of four levels between the two, Yang Li's battle strength was never measured by cultivation level. The Crouching Phoenix Lance, which weighed a thousand pounds, was very powerful. Every time it attacked Jiang Yuan, it would put a lot of pressure on him.
The more Jiang Yuan fought, the more shocked he became. His hand was numb from Yang Li's spear. He thought to himself: "This kid uses a spear like big brother Yang Li, but why does he look stronger than big brother? Spirit Movement Realm Level Four is actually able to suppress me!"
However, Jiang Yuan wasn't someone who would easily admit defeat. He said: "You're not bad, kid. You can compete with my big brother. I'm not interested in playing with you anymore. Take this! River Cleaving! "
Violent spirit power suddenly burst out. The sharp blade aura carried an aura that could cleave a river towards Yang Li. Jiang Yuan's daily blade skills were displayed to the fullest.
"Eh, this kid didn't use spirit techniques before. He always used normal attack techniques. It seems like Xiong Zhou let him learn spirit techniques. From the looks of it, it should be a High Mystic Level Cultivation Technique."
"Alright, I'm not playing with you anymore. Although you've improved, it's still not enough! Flame Dragon Soars to the Heavens! " Yang Li appeared in front of Jiang Yuan. He took off his Mask of Character and smiled at Jiang Yuan.
Immediately after, the spear stabbed out. A fire dragon quickly spun out. The slightly black flames on the fire dragon's body gave people a feeling of solitude. The scorching feeling was even more unbearable. The several meter long body went straight towards Jiang Yuan's blade aura. However, it wasn't able to break the blade aura. Instead, it was annihilated.
Yang Li faintly smiled. He wasn't surprised by this result. After all, Jiang Yuan was also a genius. It wasn't difficult for him to fight someone stronger than him. There was a difference of four realms. If he didn't use the Blood Explosion Technique, it would naturally be hard for him to defeat his opponent.
Jiang Yuan saw Yang Li's spirit technique and knew that it was Yang Li. Although the blade aura broke through Yang Li's fire dragon, it didn't hit Yang Li. Thinking about Yang Li's strange movement technique, Jiang Yuan felt angry and said, "Big Brother Yang Li! Do you think it's fun to bully me?! "
Yang Li ignored him and didn't use the Blood Explosion Technique. His spirit energy surged and he used Lyph again. He appeared behind Jiang Yuan and stabbed his spear towards his opponent. After it was blocked by Jiang Yuan's defensive spirit technique, Yang Li smiled and said, "Big Brother is just testing if your strength has improved. Come, come, come, let's continue!"
Jiang Yuan had no choice but to continue fighting. The more he fought, the more ferocious he became. His strength completely erupted and he actually suppressed Yang Li. Yang Li knew that if he didn't use the Blood Explosion Technique, he wouldn't be able to defeat him.
Helplessly smiling, Yang Li could only use the Blood Explosion Technique. He didn't want to lose to his own little brother!
"Blood Explosion Technique!"
His aura rose to the seventh level of the Spirit Movement Realm. His spirit energy skyrocketed and the degree of concentration also increased by a lot. His body turned again and his speed increased by a lot. Jiang Yuan, who originally had the upper hand, was suppressed by Yang Li after three to five moves.
"I'm not fighting anymore! You pervert! " Seeing that he was being suppressed, Jiang Yuan directly withdrew his blade and stood on the spot. He even withdrew his defensive spirit technique.
Seeing this situation, Yang Li also felt depressed. He wasted another pill. Helplessly shaking his head, he also withdrew his spear and stopped.
When Jiang Yuan saw that Yang Li also stopped, he immediately angrily walked in front of Yang Li and said: "In order to beat me up, you actually resorted to disguising yourself! Can't you have some shame! Do you feel a sense of accomplishment from bullying me! "
Seeing the anger and unconcealable depression in Jiang Yuan's eyes, the depression in Yang Li's heart immediately dissipated. He pretended to be serious and said: "You can't say things like that. Didn't I say it already? I was just testing your strength. "
However, the uncontrollable laughter in his voice betrayed him and he directly burst out laughing. Jiang Yuan glared at him and said: "I really don't know how a pervert like you can improve so quickly. It really makes me feel intimidated. I'm convinced!"
Yang Li struggled to stop himself from laughing and said: "Your strength also improved quite quickly. I was almost beaten up by you."
"That was because you didn't use your secret technique! After you used it, you only used three moves to suppress me! If it wasn't for master constantly giving me pills and letting me learn spirit techniques and martial arts, you wouldn't even need to use your secret technique to beat me up! "The depression in Jiang Yuan's voice became thicker and thicker. He lamented in his heart:" It really is infuriating to compare oneself to others! This damn pervert, I have no hope of surpassing him in this lifetime. "
"I also had a fortuitous encounter. Without it, how could I be so strong. Alright, let's go find your master." Yang Li said casually.
"Alright, let's go." After that, Jiang Yuan and Yang Li headed in the direction of Xiong Zhou. On the way, Jiang Yuan didn't stop asking Yang Li about his experiences in the past few months. Yang Li didn't mind. Other than Jiang Yu's matter and the Art of Spirit Refinement, he didn't hide anything else.
Jiang Yu's matter concerned his clean reputation, so he naturally couldn't say it out loud. Also, the Art of Spirit Refinement couldn't be said out loud. One had to be wary of others. Even if he trusted Jiang Yuan more, he wouldn't tell him.
When he found out that the long spear on Yang Li's back weighed 500 kilograms, Jiang Yuan rolled his eyes and thought to himself: "If I fight with this pervert again in the future, my surname isn't Jiang!"
Jiang Yuan also told Yang Li about the fight between the five great geniuses after he entered the secret realm, as well as the torture he had suffered over the past few months. When he talked about how he had been beaten up by his master every day, he had looked as if he had nothing left to live for. Yang Li couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Not long after, the two of them caught up to Xiong Zhou. Seeing the two of them coming over, Xiong Zhou smiled and said, "Yang Li, your talent is a little scary."
"Senior Xiong is too kind. It's also a fortuitous encounter." Yang Li smiled and said.
