Chapter 19 - Ninth Stage Lei Ying

Li Yi pushed open the door and walked out.

At this moment, it was the midnight moon in the sky. The moonlight was like water as it poured down in torrents. The silver moonlight scattered on the ground, and mottled tree shadows seeped out from the treetops and the gaps between the trees. A gentle breeze blew, causing the trees to sway unsteadily. The tender green grass on the ground sparkled with the gentle breeze that blew the dew off its tip, which was very alluring.

Just as Li Yi stood in the courtyard, a figure appeared in front of him with a "sou" sound.

"Master, you're finally out." There was deep concern in his words.

The one who came was Wang Xiaohu, he had grown into a brawny man, like an iron tower, with a broad waist and a bulky waist, looking extremely mighty. These few years, Wang Xiaohu had always been living by the side of Li Yi's closed door cultivation, constantly protecting it, and keeping a close eye on his surroundings's movements. Today, Xiao Hu scanned the surroundings with his consciousness like usual. Suddenly, he discovered a valiant man walked out from his Master's closed door cultivation room. Although he looked different from his master when he was young, his intuition told him that this was his master.

"It's Little Tiger!" "What a tall and sturdy figure. Not bad, you have reached the Intermediate Jindan Stage." When he saw Wang Xiaohu, he was also very excited, and almost couldn't see the sunlight of this world anymore.

Hearing Li Yi's words, Wang Xiaohu laughed and scratched his head.

"Master, I'll go call junior apprentice-brother, senior apprentice-brother, and the others."

In the room, seven pairs of eyes that were filled with surprise and excitement stared at Li Yi.

The seven of them had changed quite a bit, Li Yi scanned each one of them with his eyes. Xing Tian and the other three were the most special; the four of them seemed to be carved out of the same mold, with a medium build, white robes and white boots, long hair behind their heads and a handsome face. Their appearance was really eye-catching, and their cultivation was also in the Aurous Core stage; if one were to say that they had not changed much, other than reaching the peak of the late stage of the Aurous Core stage, there were no other changes.

Li Yi's change in appearance could be said to be not small. She had already regained her original appearance, with her sharp eyebrows, straight nose, and resolute expression. Her thin lips curled up, giving others the feeling of being bathed in spring breeze.

"Third brother, I didn't expect that you had already been in closed-door training for eight years. You've really made a bad impression on everyone." Li Shuo said, his eyes revealing traces of warmth.

"That's right!" Master, look, we are already Sword Saints. " Xing Tian was very happy.

Li Yi slowly understood what had happened in the span of eight years from everyone present.

When Li Yi heard about the Dark Union's bounty of one million, he could not help but reveal a cold smile. He thought to himself, "Nan Gong Family, I will settle this debt for you first."

Other than the bounty, there was no other major event in the past eight years.

After Li Yi came out of his seclusion, he was very relaxed. He would occasionally give pointers to the people in cultivation and occasionally take a jug of white wine to lie on the white clouds.

To the East Mountain to watch the sunrise, late to the West Cliff Drunk Red Clouds.

Li Yi secretly channeled all the energy in his body and he could not help but exclaim at the strength of the Chaotic Qi. The muscles that had undergone the tempering of the Chaotic Qi did not have the strength of the Void-level in his previous life, let alone the Chaotic Clouds in his Dantian. After Li Yi tried in every possible way, he discovered that he could still cultivate using the methods he had used before. However, he could only absorb a very large amount of Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth in order to transform a bit of it into Chaotic Spirit Qi that entered into the Primal Chaos cloud mist in his dantian very slowly. The Five Elements Desolate Pill in his dantian required a lot of primal chaos spirit energy to continuously grow stronger. He didn't know when he would be able to break through to the next realm. However, how to break through to the next realm, Li Yi, was still unclear, and could only settle down to whatever situation he was in. He didn't know if this was a blessing or a curse.

On this day, Li Shuo came to find Li Yi.

"Third brother, news has come from the family. Two months from now, the Ouyang family's Patriarch, Ouyang Chenfeng, will be celebrating his fiftieth birthday, and father has sent you and I to congratulate him. At the same time, the Ouyang family has also received news that the Ouyang family will be choosing a husband for their daughter, Ouyang Xue, on his birthday." Li Shuo said.

At first, Li Yi did not listen carefully, but when he heard the name Ouyang Xue, a profound energy surged in his heart and he could not help but shiver uncontrollably. Li Yi couldn't help but think of the girl in yellow dress who had moved his heart eight years ago, and he wondered if he was alright.

"Third brother, third brother, what's wrong?" Li Shuo could not help but call out to Li Yi when he saw him standing there in a daze.

"Hm!" It's nothing. Fine, we'll set off tomorrow. Little Tiger and the others haven't been out for quite a while, so we'll go sightseeing together with them. We'll pay a visit to Old Man Wuwei as well. " Li Yi responded.

"I think so too."

On the main road, Li Yi and the rest of the seven talked and laughed as they slowly walked.

and his brothers had not gone out for fun during the eight years that Li Yi had been in seclusion for, and their young hearts had long been a little lonely. When they heard that their master and uncle master was going to bring them to the Zhao Kingdom, they were overjoyed.

Eagles spread their wings, the sky was high and the clouds were free to fly; horses were on their front hooves, while mountains and rivers were free to gallop.

Birds out of the cage, dragons out of the shallows.

On the Great Way of the Buddha, a group of seven people were around twenty years old. The weakest among them had the strength of a Sword Saint and Li Yi, who was the strongest, did not even know how deep he was. Any one of these people could become a tyrant in the martial arts world.

"Brother, how about we not walk on the official road and walk around Lei Ying's mountain range?" Li Yi said to his brother as he walked.

"Third brother, why?" Li Shuo was a little doubtful. Why did they have to walk on the mountain road instead of the main road, even though the mountain road could no longer obstruct them.

"After I come out of seclusion, I still do not know about your actual combat capabilities. I heard that the Lei Ying Mountain Range is a place where all sorts of powerful demonic beasts flourished, allowing you to test your abilities. Li Yi said.

When Xiao Hu and the others heard that they were going to the Lei Ying Mountain Range to find the unlucky beasts, they could not help but light up their eyes. After his cultivation had improved, although his brothers would usually spar with each other, they would never be able to enjoy themselves for fear of hurting each other.

"Master, that's great. Ever since my strength increased, I haven't been able to have a good fight. My hands are already itching to fight." Wang Xiaohu came in front of Li Yi and said.

"Master, I heard that Lei Ying Mountain Range is a place where rank 9 beast Lei Ying flourishes. This time, I must subdue Lei Ying as my own Magic Pet." He was dressed in white, holding onto a long sword, and standing on top of Lei Ying's valiant body.

"Good!" Each of you have to take one Lei Ying. Haha, we will form an army of Lei Ying. " Li Yi praised.

The seven of them immediately became spirited and headed towards the Lei Ying Mountain Range.

The reason why this name existed in the Lei Ying Mountain Range was because there was a large number of Lei Ying s here.

There were two main ways to tame a magical beast: one was to use great strength to defeat the magical beast that was to be tamed, which was also the most commonly used method; the other was to draw a magic array — Soul Inhibition Formation. The strength of the magical beast that was to be tamed could not be higher than one's own level of strength, which was a commonly used method by mages. In addition, there was another method that was rarely used. Magic scrolls made from high-ranked magicians were very rare and extremely expensive.

Lei Ying Mountain Range consisted of several large mountains that meandered for thousands of miles. The mountains were majestic and the forest was lush. A thousand old cypress trees, ten thousand days to cultivate the Yellow River. The cypress straight up, with rain all over the green mountains dye; tall pine scattered, smoke a pale color.

The seven of them went about their business, gathering herbs and training their swords in the presence of beasts. They roasted meat on a bonfire late in the day, and chatted and laughed merrily.

Lei Ying Level 9 flying beast was one of the few types of flying beasts. It was a beast choice for mages to subdue and subdue their flying beasts. As a high level magical beast, it had a few ultimate moves. Its claws could shatter gold and shatter rocks, tear beasts apart, and its beak was sharp; its wings were hard, making it hard for ordinary swords to harm; and its ultimate move was to spit out lightning with great speed and power. Overall, its strength was higher than a level 1 expert, and it even had the strength of a Inferior Sword Saint. Due to its ability to fly, even a Sword Saint would find it difficult to endure. Because it could carry people while flying, it was very strong. This was also the reason why Dharma Saints would often choose it as their Magic Pet.

Everyone gradually went deeper into the mountains, and the magical beasts they encountered gradually grew stronger. On this day, as everyone was cutting through the thorns, they suddenly heard a sharp cry from in front of them.

"Lei Ying" Wang Xiaohu blurted out.

The brothers immediately became spirited as they stepped on their flying swords and flew forward.

Li Yi, seeing how his brothers were fighting, couldn't help but to laugh at each other.

In front of him, a giant eagle the size of a person was currently devouring food.

"Junior brother, I will take this Lei Ying." Xiao Hu could not hide his joy at all as he looked at the mighty Lei Ying.

"Senior brother, I'll give this to you. We'll help you block its escape route so that it won't escape." Xing Tian and the other three said.

Little Tiger nodded at the four of them, and the four sword lights flew towards the four of them.

Lei Ying who was enjoying his meal realized that someone was interrupting his meal and had an unfriendly gaze.

Squeak!

Lei Ying cried out, with a sound that resembled a dragon's roar, he rushed into the ninth heaven, spreading his wings and pouncing towards Wang Xiaohu.

Seeing Lei Ying rushing towards him, Xiao Hu's excited eyes suddenly calmed down and went into battle mode. A ray of light appeared in Xiao Hu's hand. It was the flying sword that Li Yi refined for him – Tiger Roar.

Feeling this powerful aura, Lei Ying was suddenly shocked, and his sharp eyes suddenly shrank back. Without waiting for it to react, the little tiger swung its mountain-like sword down towards Lei Ying's descending claws.

Bang!

It actually released a metal clanging sound, both claws were not a match for Spirit Treasures, and under the pain, Lei Ying cried out, raising his head. Lei Ying suddenly opened his giant mouth and aimed straight at Xiao Hu, only to see a ray of lightning shooting towards Xiao Hu with incomparable speed. Wang Xiaohu hurriedly used his Qi to move, leaving behind an afterimage as he flew away.

Bang!

A loud bang could be heard from behind Xiao Hu as he turned around to look at the two meter diameter hole that was emitting green smoke. Such great power, Xiaohu could not help but be secretly delighted.

Xiao Hu's toes touched the ground, he suddenly flew into the air, the Tiger Roar in his hand released a sword light over ten meters long that flew towards Lei Ying. The sword force was extremely fast, Lei Ying saw that he was unable to dodge it, he tilted his head and welcomed it with his back.

Bang!

A loud explosion resounded in all directions.

Roar!

Lei Ying screamed, and fell far away like a kite with its string cut, leaving behind pieces of feathers and blood stains.

Lei Ying who had broken a few trees and stopped, felt satisfied and spread his wings towards the north.

Just as he was flying not too far away, he saw a ray of sword Qi pouncing towards him. Lei Ying hurriedly turned his head and flew towards another direction, his wings fanned for a few times, and then another ray of sword Qi pouncing towards him.

In the north, east, and west, there were sword beams blocking them. Lei Ying flew helplessly towards the sky, and when he raised his head, he did not know that one of the sword beams was already above his head. Lei Ying screamed and fell to the ground.

Wang Xiaohu who was already waiting below released his tiger roar, clenched his fists and pounced towards Lei Ying like lightning. His body was like lightning, and his fists were like a fierce tiger.

The sounds of fists hitting against each other continuously resounded on Lei Ying's body!

Squeak! Chant!

Miserable screams rang out incessantly! Pieces of feathers fell and blood dripped down. Lei Ying was miserable.

Seeing Lei Ying give in, Wang Xiaohu's figure suddenly stopped in front of Lei Ying, as though he had moved in a very natural manner. Lei Ying's eyes were filled with fear, he walked to Xiao Hu and rubbed his head against Xiao Hu's leg, showing a docile look, and said, "Master, I give up."

Xiao Hu patted Lei Ying's back. Seeing that it was covered in wounds, he immediately took out the Foundation Establishment Pill that Li Yi left for him and fed it to Lei Ying. Lei Ying happily nodded towards Xiao Hu and laid down on the ground to recuperate.

A layer of faint blue light emerged from Lei Ying's body, and in a short period of time, Lei Ying's injuries were fully healed. Xiao Hu dripped another drop of blood on Lei Ying's head, and then released a string of soul restriction techniques. Blood acted as a guide, and the soul restriction technique, was the cultivation world's method to tame spirit beasts. After completing the Spirit Arts, the drop of blood merged with Lei Ying's body.

Suddenly, Lei Ying's presence came into Wang Xiaohu's mind.

"Master!" Lei Ying was a little afraid.

This was the first time Xiao Hu felt that something like this was out of the ordinary, so he happily transmitted his voice, "Alright, follow me. In the future, I won't let you suffer. I am Xiaohu, I shall call you Little Ying! "

Xing Tian and the others all congratulated Xiao Hu, and when the four brothers saw the mighty Lei Ying, they immediately urged Wang Xiaohu to look for Lei Ying. Just like Xiao Hu, the few of them managed to find Lei Ying easily, and like Xiao Hu, they easily subdued one each. Li Shuo saw that all of them had mounts, and couldn't help but feel an itch in his heart and tame one as well. Amongst everyone present, only Li Yi had not done so yet.

Everyone asked Li Yi why he did not take all of them.

Li Yi only laughed and looked into the distance.
