I dream of immortality in Taixu Sect

Chapter 159 Entering Yucheng

Time is like running water, and a hundred years has passed in a flash.

Zhiyun View.

A powerful aura burst out from Zhiyun Temple.

After nearly a hundred years of practice, Meng Bai finally advanced to the level of Lianxu Hedao.

Feeling his own extremely powerful magic power, Meng Bai smiled indifferently.

If Meng Bai met Han Chengjun from a hundred years ago again today, he would definitely be able to keep him.

"I have finally reached this stage in my journey of refining the void and integrating the Dao. The only people who can pose a threat to me now are those old monsters who have been secluded in seclusion."

"I have been staying in Zhiyun Temple for more than 150 years. It is time for me to go out for a walk."

Meng Bai came to the cemetery in the backyard, said goodbye to the old Taoist priest, and then walked out of Zhiyun Temple.

......

Some secret room.

The ghost calculator had a gloomy expression.

"Trash, a bunch of trash."

"It's been a hundred years. A full hundred years, and the Son of Destiny has managed to escape death every time."

The ghost fortune teller's follower knelt on one knee, bowed his head and said: "I am incompetent and failed to complete the task assigned by you, sir."

The Ghost Calculator took a deep breath and sighed, "Forget it, forget it. This matter is not your fault. If you want to blame someone, blame those noble families for being too incompetent. They can't even control a small Fang family."

"Let the royal family intervene now. We cannot let the child of destiny continue to grow, even if it means suffering some backlash from destiny."

"Yes, my lord."

......

Drinking Snow Gate, Cold Snow Cave.

This place is covered with ice and snow all year round. The ice and snow contain the magic power of ice. Even ordinary Lianxu Hedao masters may not be able to stay here for a long time.

However, if a Qi-refining practitioner who practices cold-attributed techniques practices here, the speed may be doubled.

A loud noise came from the Hanxue Cave, followed by a burst of wild laughter from the cave.

"Hahaha!"

"I succeeded. I finally succeeded in my cultivation."

Han Chengjun walked out of the snowy cave with disheveled hair.

During this hundred years, he finally mastered the unique magic of the Yinxue Sect, the Heaven-Sealing and Earth-Freezing Palm.

The power of the Heaven-Sealing and Earth-Freezing Palm is more than ten times stronger than his original Snow-Stacking Palm.

In addition to his continuous practice over the past hundred years, the magic power in his body has doubled compared to a hundred years ago.

Han Chengjun was confident that if he met the successor of Zhiyun Temple again, he would be able to defeat him.

Then a hint of ruthlessness appeared in his eyes.

"Heir of Zhiyun Temple, this time I want you to die without a burial place."

......

Yucheng.

After leaving Zhiyun Temple, Meng Bai walked all the way to Yucheng, the capital of Yu Dynasty.

Passing through several cities, Meng Bai discovered that the people in the cities were suffering terribly, and the people at the bottom were severely exploited by those in power.

Meng Bai sighed slightly: "The rule of the Yu Dynasty is rotten to the core. I wonder what is happening in Yu City."

Before Meng Bai entered the city, the soldiers guarding the city gate stopped him.

"I have never seen you before, Taoist priest. Are you from out of town? Pay a coin before entering the imperial city."

Meng Bai looked at the soldier calmly: "What does this officer mean?"

The soldier sneered and said, "Yucheng is the capital of the Yu Dynasty. You can't enter it casually. Outsiders who want to enter Yucheng must pay."

"If you don't have money, get out of here."

Meng Bai frowned when he heard this: "The Yu Dynasty is now stable and there is no war. Why do we need to charge money to enter the city gate?"

Generally speaking, there is no war and no riots in the city. Even in the capital, people can enter and exit the city gates freely without being charged any fees.

Although Meng Bai didn't care about the money, he didn't want to give it to others for no reason.

The soldier thrust his weapon into the ground fiercely and said arrogantly: "If I say you have to hand it over, you have to hand it over. If you, a Taoist priest, don't have money, then don't waste your time here."

Meng Bai looked at this man coldly, and an invisible aura burst out from his body.

"Do you dare to say that again?"

The soldier's expression changed slightly when he saw this.

"So you are the Qi Refiner, this is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, please come in."

Meng Bai flicked his sleeves and walked into the city without bothering to think about it anymore.

At the same time, Meng Bai shook his head and thought to himself: Even a soldier guarding the city gate dares to exploit the people so arrogantly. It seems that the attitude of the superiors in Yucheng towards civilians is obvious.

Of course, regardless of the hardships of the lower-class people, Yucheng still appears to be quite prosperous on the surface.

Meng Bai walked into a restaurant and ordered some side dishes and a pot of rice wine.

Soon he heard some conversations around him.

"Brother Zhao, the Yu Dynasty issued some laws a few days ago, which restricted us merchants in many ways."

"Yes, this year's merchant tax has increased by another 10%. How are we going to survive?"

"I am planning to go back to my hometown, buy some good farmland and become a landlord. I don't want to do business anymore."

"We merchants already have high taxes. If we raise them by another 10% and add some messy laws, there will be no profit at all. We might as well go home and become landlords."

"I'll tell you a secret. I heard that Yu Dynasty issued these decrees to deal with the Fang family."

"The Fang family is extremely wealthy. As the richest family in Yucheng, I'm afraid they are being targeted by the royal family this time."

"If the Fang family is sensible this time and offers a fortune, there might be a glimmer of hope."

"It's difficult. With Fang Zhi's character, he will definitely not give up the Fang family's property."

"Brother Huang, what you said is wrong. If he doesn't give in, is he waiting for the Fang family to be confiscated and exterminated?"

"..."

Then you know.

Meng Bai raised his eyebrows slightly.

It seemed that I heard a familiar name. If I guessed correctly, this Fang Zhi was the child who was born in Zhiyun Temple a hundred years ago.

However, Meng Bai had no intention of getting involved in this matter. He went out of the monastery this time simply to travel and enjoy himself in the mortal world.

Afterwards, he went to Yinxue Gate to avenge the old Taoist priest, which was also a way of repaying the old Taoist priest's eighteen years of raising him.

At night, Meng Bai found a luxurious inn to stay in.

......

Inn, room number one.

A young man in white, with an elegant demeanor, sat calmly at the table, tasting the fine tea prepared for him by the inn.

dong dong!

There was a knock on the door.

The young man in white said softly: "Come in!"

A middle-aged man in a black robe walked in.

"Master Fang Zhi, I have contacted the trustworthy people from the noble families as you requested, and they are all willing to follow you."

Fang Zhi smiled and nodded when he heard this.

"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Zhuo."

The man called Uncle Zhuo shook his head and said, "Serving Master Fangzhi is my wish."

Just at this moment, Fang Zhi's expression changed slightly.

"Uncle Zhuo, you go first, there is a Qi Refiner coming towards me."

Uncle Zhuo's expression changed slightly: "How could this be? You have been hiding your tracks these days, how did they know you were here?"

Fang Zhi had already guessed in his mind how this group of people found him. They must have secretly followed Uncle Zhuo here, but Fang Zhi did not explain this to Uncle Zhuo.

"Uncle Zhuo, you are not a Qi Refiner. Staying here will only distract me. Leave here first."

Uncle Zhuo nodded and left the room immediately.

A few breaths later, four Qi cultivators who had returned to the state of emptiness broke through the window and entered Fang Zhi's room.

The leading cultivator sneered, "Master Fang Zhi, you made it very difficult for us to find you!"
