Mao Lieguang, the second-ranked Innate Ranker in the Kairong Country's Hall of Masters.
Among the top ten Innate Rankers in the entire Kairong Country, except for the Old Ancestor of the Kairong Country, who had always been in closed-door cultivation and had reached the One-Line-Sky Realm, he was already the number one in reality.
Such a character was not only known as the number one in the Kairong Country, but also among the many countries within the sphere of influence of the Kairong Country, he could definitely be ranked in the top few in the Hundred Scatter Heaven.
It was precisely because he had such a powerful strength that he could teach a disciple like Cheng Fu who was also in the Innate Realm.
However, on this day, the legend of Mao Lieguang being invincible in the same realm was broken.
Before his fight with He Yiming, no one would have thought that he would only use a single move to determine the victor so cleanly and neatly.
The gap between them was not the gap in moves, nor was it the gap in experience, but the gap in strength.
The two metal forces that represented sharpness made the strongest collision in an instant, and the result was that Mao Lieguang was defeated.
The ground suddenly cracked, and from under Mao Lieguang's feet, it spread out like a spider web.
Along with that creepy sound, everyone's eyes were firmly attracted to this place.
The cracks seemed to continue to open endlessly, and finally spread over the door of Shaoming Residence. Under everyone's dumbfounded gazes, the door began to shake and crumble.
At this point, these people finally realized that although the fight between these two Xiantian experts looked ordinary, the destructive power they caused was already unimaginable.
Some people who had been lucky enough to see He Yiming and Cheng Fu fight also sighed in their hearts. It was indeed a fight between Innate Rankers of a higher level. Although they weren't as flashy as Cheng Fu and the others, the destruction they did in the dark was not inferior in any way. In terms of soul-stirring, it was slightly better than the other two.
Shui Xuan Jin sighed. With a wave of his sleeve, the whole door shook and then collapsed.
The entire field was suddenly filled with dust. When the dust dissipated, the surrounding people suddenly discovered that the three Xiantian Masters who were originally standing in the middle, and even Yuan Lixun, who was originally standing at the side, had disappeared.
Under their full attention, they actually didn't know how these people left.
These people looked at each other and felt a chill in their hearts. They quietly left this place.
However, the news of the battle between the two Xiantian experts spread like wildfire.
Even though it was just a private exchange, the speed at which this news spread was even faster than the news of the war between He Yiming and Cheng Fu.
He Yiming's name was finally firmly engraved in the hearts of all the Innate Experts within the sphere of influence of the Kai Rong Country in a more powerful manner.
※ ※ ※
Inside Shaoming Residence, He Yiming and Yuan Lixun sat quietly by the side of the courtyard. Opposite them were Shui Xuan Jin and Mao Lieguang, who was still arrogant just a moment ago.
However, contrary to He Yiming and the other man's expectations, Mao Lieguang no longer had the slightest trace of arrogance. Instead, he had a smile on his face, as if he was a harmless and amiable old man.
He Yiming's heart was filled with emotions. The world was really full of wonders.
Although Mao Lieguang and Cheng Fu were a pair of master and disciple, their personalities were completely opposite.
Once Cheng Fu was defeated, he immediately turned and left. However, there seemed to be a sense of unwillingness to admit defeat on Cheng Fu's body. He Yiming was even certain that Cheng Fu would work hard to cultivate after returning. Perhaps he would enter a second epiphany as a result, and his strength would increase greatly.
However, after Mao Lieguang was defeated, not only did he not feel ashamed, but he also changed his cold face and sat down with him with a smile as if nothing had happened. Moreover, his words immediately became unusually polite and gave him unexpected respect.
This made He Yiming's evaluation of him drop greatly. He also ignored the words that he started. This was because after seeing his behavior, He Yiming was certain that Mao Lieguang had reached the end of his cultivation in martial arts. He would never be able to take another step forward in this life.
However, no matter how much He Yiming despised this person's behavior and character, he was too embarrassed to show it in front of him.
'You can be shameless, but I am.'
Fortunately, Shui Xuanjin was here to accompany him. This old fox had lived for more than 200 years. He was very eloquent and lively. With him present and willing to waste his saliva, it was difficult for the atmosphere to not liven up.
Under Shui Xuanjin's indirect questioning, He Yiming told him about the trip to Hengshan.
After knowing that He Yiming was not only the Master Protector of the Tian Luo Kingdom, but also the Innate Elder of the hidden sect, Hengshan, Mao Lieguang's attitude became even more amiable.
Although He Yiming understood Shui Xuanjin's painstaking efforts, he did not mind borrowing the name of Hengshan.
"Brother He, how is your sect's Elder Yu Jinglei?" Mao Lieguang's eyes flickered as he asked.
He Yiming smiled slightly, but in his heart, he felt ashamed. He had just suffered at his hands, but in the blink of an eye, he was calling him brother again.
However, since the other party was asking about Yu Jinglei, it would not be good for him to not answer. Thus, he spouted nonsense, "Martial Uncle Yu can eat three big bowls of rice every meal. His body is very healthy. Thank you for your concern, Brother Mao."
Mao Lieguang laughed, but in his heart, he was extremely suspicious. Did a Xiantian Ranker need to eat every meal? Could it be that Yu Jinglei's body could not take it, so He Yiming was spouting nonsense?
However, looking at He Yiming's expression, he could not make up his mind.
Although Hengshan was deep in the mountains, it was still within the sphere of influence of the Kai Rong Kingdom. The royal family of the Kai Rong Kingdom had long been drooling over the resources of Hengshan.
Especially the medicinal garden with thousands of years of history and the powerful alchemy room. Both were existences that any power would be jealous of.
However, not only were there many Xiantian Rankers in Hengshan, but what was even more terrifying was that there was a One-Line-Sky Ranker. This was enough to make anyone who wanted to touch it think twice.
"Brother Mao, could it be that you have met Martial Uncle Yu before?"
Under He Yiming's gaze that seemed to be smiling yet not smiling, Mao Lieguang awkwardly laughed twice and said, "Brother He, when I was young, I met Elder Yu twice, so I was very worried."
He Yiming nodded slightly and no longer paid attention to this person.
However, Mao Lieguang did not seem to be willing to give up. He still laughed and said, "Brother He, it is said that in the past 60 years, there has been no new Xiantian Master born in Hengshan. This time, you entering the mountain is undoubtedly a timely help to them. I believe you have gained a lot. "
He Yiming was even more dissatisfied. Listening to Mao Lieguang's tone, he had become the one who took advantage of the situation.
He smiled coldly and said, "Brother Mao's news seems to be outdated."
Mao Lieguang was stunned and said hesitantly, "Brother He, what do you mean?"
He Yiming said expressionlessly, "In Hengshan, a new Xiantian Elder has been born. This time, I am only going to add flowers to brocade. How can it be called timely help?"
Mao Lieguang was tongue-tied. His expression changed several times, and his heart became more and more suspicious.
He Yiming didn't lie, but he changed the order of the first and the second. This way, even if Mao Lieguang and the others knew that Lu Zhengyi had stepped into the Xiantian Realm, they would definitely not think of him.
Shui Xuanjin laughed. The more he heard, the happier he was.
He Yiming was now tied to the Tian Luo Kingdom, and He Yiming was the Elder of Hengshan. The stronger Hengshan was, the more stable the Tian Luo Kingdom's position would be. At this moment, he could not wait to have more Xiantian Elders in Hengshan.
"Brother Mao, now that Brother He is here, we can talk about serious matters."
He Yiming's eyes narrowed. So it turned out that Shui Xuanjin had indeed brought him back because of this Xiantian Grandmaster from the Kai Rong Country. He was suspicious in his heart. Could it be that they weren't willing to accept their defeat and wanted another Country War?
Mao Lieguang smiled as if he had just woken up from a dream and said, "Brother He, I came here this time to send you an invitation."
"Invitation?" He Yiming asked suspiciously, "Did something good happen in your country recently?"
Mao Lieguang shook his head slightly and said, "There is nothing good, but the Tu Fan Country sent an envoy to Kai Rong Country. A total of eight Xiantian Masters came."
He Yiming's smiling face suddenly froze, and there was an indescribable surprise in his eyes.
If he did not hear wrongly, Mao Lieguang seemed to have said twelve Xiantian Masters.
He quickly calculated in his heart. In the Great Master Hall of Kai Rong Country, there were ten Xiantian Masters, and now there were eight more. In other words, there were almost twenty Xiantian Masters in Kai Rong Country.
He looked at Shui Xuanjin in a daze, and there was a silent question in his eyes. When did the rare Xiantian Masters become so worthless …
Shui Xuanjin quickly coughed and said, "Brother He, Little Brother He, Tu Fan Country is one of the three strongest countries in the Northwest. The number of Xiantian Masters they have is not below that of Kai Rong Country. Moreover, half of the Xiantian Masters that came this time are actually the protectors of the small countries under Tu Fan Country's jurisdiction."
He Yiming was relieved, but he still asked, "Why are there so many of them gathered together?"
Mao Lieguang said with a face full of smiles, "These Xiantian Masters came here with a large number of rare goods, and invited the masters of our countries to trade."
"Yes, the things that can be traded there are all kinds of rare herbs, refined treasures, and the alchemists of the two countries will also refine some Golden Energy Pills on the spot. Every Xiantian Master present can share one." Shui Xuanjin said seriously, "This is a good thing for the disciples. If you want to buy it, you can't get it without a certain price."
"Golden Energy Pill?" He Yiming smiled disdainfully.
He Yiming would be moved if it was the limit of the Golden Energy Pill, but the Golden Energy Pill was not that attractive in his eyes. Because of the thousands of years of accumulation in Heng Mountain, the number of Golden Energy Pills was really a lot. Even he had successfully refined two batches of Golden Energy Pills with different main ingredients, so how could he still care about it?
His expression was immediately seen by the two Xiantian Masters. Mao Lieguang smiled bitterly and said, "Brother He is an elder of Heng Mountain, so he naturally doesn't care about the Golden Energy Pill, but we care a lot about it."
Shui Xuanjin also nodded secretly. As a hidden sect, most of them had their own medicine gardens that had been passed down for thousands of years. More importantly, all these sects had a common characteristic, and that was that their mountain gates were basically in the depths of the mountains, far away from ordinary people.
That place was definitely not a barren place, but a paradise full of Qi of Heaven and Earth.
Even if one was not a Xiantian Master, there were great benefits to cultivating in that environment, and it was not comparable to the outside world. As long as one was talented, they could rely on their own efforts to cultivate to the tenth level of Internal Force.
Therefore, although they could refine a large number of Golden Energy Pills, their demand for them was the least. After accumulating for a long time, the number of Golden Energy Pills would naturally become more and more considerable.
Shui Xuanjin suddenly smiled and said, "Brother He, Brother Brother He, if you have extra Golden Energy Pills on you, you can exchange them with other masters at the Masters' Trading Fair."
He Yiming could not help but feel a rush of excitement. He asked in a deep voice, "Do they even exchange treasures there?"
"Of course, but you know the value of treasures, so it's not easy to exchange them for treasures of this level."
He Yiming frowned and smiled bitterly. "It's a pity that I don't have extra Golden Energy Pills on me, and I don't have any rare treasures either, so I can only give up on this opportunity."
In fact, he did have a treasure on him. The huge white stone that was hidden in the valley was definitely an unknown treasure. That said, He Yiming would not use it easily before he figured out the item's origin and function.
An ordinary man was innocent, but treasuring a jade ring would arouse the envy of others. When he first hunted the Golden-crowned Python in the He Family Village, He Wude had nagged him countless times, making it difficult for him to forget.
A strange look flashed across Mao Lieguang's face, and he turned to look at Shui Xuanjin.
The old master from the Tian Luo Kingdom laughed out loud and said, "Brother He, Brother Brother He, you must be joking. Since you're the Tian Luo Kingdom's Imperial Master, you'll get a share of all the rare treasures that the kingdom finds. Later, I'll accompany you to the Imperial Treasury to pick some things. We can't let people look down on the Tian Luo Kingdom. "
He Yiming was elated. He did not expect that he would be treated like this as the Imperial Master.
Mao Lieguang laughed heartily. The expression on his face was completely different from before. No one would be able to associate him with that cold and stern person from before. And from his attitude, no one would have thought that he would actually be defeated by He Yiming just now.
Even after the banquet ended, the smile on his face did not disappear.
Before He Yiming left, he looked at this independent Xiantian Master and suddenly felt a burst of fear from the bottom of his heart.
If a shameless person was invincible, then what would happen if a Xiantian Master did not even care about his face …
※ ※ ※
He Yiming's return was also an extremely important matter to the Tian Luo Kingdom's Imperial Family.
When Shui Xuanjin and He Yiming arrived at the Imperial Treasury in the backyard of the Imperial City, the Crown Prince and Yu Xiaoyi had been waiting for them for a long time.
Yu Xiaoyi, who had great authority in the Tian Luo Kingdom, was very respectful in front of the two Xiantian Masters. He opened the door of the treasury, and after the two Xiantian Masters entered, he gently closed the door. Even he did not enter.
The only one who could accompany them into the treasury was Shui Xuanjin's first disciple, Xue Lie.
"Brother He, Brother He, this Imperial Treasury was specially built for me by my old friend. Everything that can be found in the Tian Luo Kingdom that is useful to Xiantian Masters is all here. Even if there are some strange things with unknown origins, most of them are here, "Shui Xuanjin said proudly. "This Imperial Treasury has always been organized and cleaned by Lie 'er. Other than the Emperor, no one else is allowed to enter."
He Yiming's gaze swept twice around the Imperial Treasury, and he was secretly shocked.
Now, his eyesight was no longer comparable to the past. In just a moment, he had already seen a lot of good things in the Imperial Treasury.
Not only were there a lot of specially treated Spiritual Herbs and Spiritual Medicines, there were also a few protective equipment and weapons that shone with a strange light. In addition, there were also a lot of strange minerals that He Yiming could not name. Although He Yiming could not identify all of them, the steel magnets were not unfamiliar to him.
Taking a deep breath, He Yiming said, "Brother Shui, your collection is really rich. It is an eye-opener for me."
Shui Xuanjin laughed and said, "Actually, every country's Imperial Master has a similar Imperial Treasury. It's just that I has been building it for a long time, so there are a lot more things in it." He waved his hand and suddenly said, "Brother He, Brother He, from now on, this Imperial Treasury belongs to you."
Xue Lie stood at the side with his hands by his side, as if he did not hear Shui Xuanjin's words. His expression did not change at all.
He Yiming was startled and quickly said, "Brother Shui, I did not mean that."
Shui Xuanjin waved his hand and laughed, "Since you know that I do not have much time left, then there is no need to decline. Although these things are good, I do not have the ability to bring them to the Underworld to use. Furthermore, these things can only be maximized in the hands of a Xiantian Master. In the entire Tian Luo, you are the only one qualified to receive them. "
He Yiming opened his mouth and remained silent for a while. Finally, he said, "Since that is the case, then I am ashamed to accept them."
Shui Xuanjin laughed loudly. His laughter was filled with gratification, but there was also a trace of longing and reluctance.
No matter who it was, no matter what the reason was, they would feel the same way if they gave away their treasures that they had kept for hundreds of years.
He Yiming, who had accepted this grand gift, also sighed in his heart.
Shui Xuanjin's method was the same as Yuan Zhencheng's. They both used benefits to tie him to their war chariot.
Although the price they paid was not the same, and the value was also very different, there was no doubt that they both had the same thoughts.
When he accepted this gift, he also had to bear the corresponding responsibility. Who was the one who took advantage of this? It was really a mess.
"Brother He, Brother He, let's pick some things and prepare to go." A strange glow flashed across Shui Xuanjin's face, "This is the last time I will participate in this kind of Xiantian gathering. You must bring some good things, don't let others look down on you. "
He Yiming looked up and thought of the old man who did not have long to live. His heart ached inexplicably.
