Taichu Yandao: Starting from the Villain

Yanjing has been prosperous since ancient times, with its picturesque bridges, draperies and green curtains, and millions of households.

Through the interpretation of countless storytellers, it has become the most desirable place for people all over the world. Many aspiring young people have made settling down in Yanjing their lifelong goal.

Such a beautiful place has long been ranked as high as the sky in the hearts of ordinary people.

However, the miracle that took place on that day made the people's yearning for Yanjing rise eight degrees higher.

That afternoon, the streets and alleys of the entire city were suddenly filled with a strange fragrance. Although it only lasted for a moment, the people of Yanjing benefited greatly from it.

Some people who suffered from rheumatism in their legs and feet suddenly felt no pain. Some people who had suffered from tuberculosis for years gradually recovered from their coughs. There are even rumors that an old lady who had been blind for more than 20 years actually regained her sight.

On the morning of the second day, people in the city heard the mysterious sound again. The sound was sacred and bright, and it seemed to be able to purify the evil thoughts in people's hearts and lead people to find the most original goodness.

There was the complaining woman in the boudoir, who from then on always smiled and her husband and wife were in harmony again. There was the miser who loved money like his life, who from then on opened a porridge stall and finally had a son, continuing the single-line family line for eight generations.

After the mysterious sound ended, the sky above Yanjing was suddenly covered with dark clouds and thunder, as if the world was about to be destroyed. Just when the people in the city were extremely terrified, a golden light from the Holy Palace broke through the clouds and finally disappeared into thin air.

Since then, the belief in Qianyuan Daohao Taiyi Zhenxian in the hearts of the Yan people disappeared.

There is no need for a unified statement. Everyone in the world knows that the True Immortal has become an immortal, and that golden light is him ascending to heaven.

Above Yanjing, the golden light broke through the clouds and gradually slowed down, revealing three people and a boat.

Qian Xiaoyi looked at the city below and sighed, "Friend Zhao, if we leave in such a hurry, the State of Yan will surely be in chaos!"

Zhao Rui shook his head and shouted, "The opportunity for the great way is fleeting, what is there to be nostalgic about?"

As if a bucket of cold water was poured over his head, Qian Xiaoyi was suddenly startled, retracted his gaze, and said, "Let's go!"

The rising sun illuminated the sea of ​​clouds. Zhao Rui thrust his flying sword into the bow of the boat and pointed it at everywhere. The three people on the boat turned into a streak of light.

At first, Shen and Qian were extremely excited, and they had the leisure to appreciate the sea view and chat about some interesting things.

But after the novelty wore off, the two began to become gradually depressed, especially after more than 20 days, when the distance was still the same blue, which made them extremely depressed.

Occasionally, you can encounter small islands in the sea, but they are all tiny places, and there are no birds except some low shrubs.

A month and a half later, the three men encountered a black cloud in the sea. They wanted to rely on their skills to cross it, but as soon as they got close, an evil wind blew.

Lightning flashed, thunder roared, and the wind howled, as if it was going to tear everything into pieces. The three of them used all their strength to avoid being swept away.

From then on, whenever the three of them saw something unusual, they would turn around and leave, preferring to take a longer detour.

After three full months, the spiritual energy in the air gradually became thicker.

Zhao Rui and the other two were very happy. They thought that the main continent was not far ahead. However, after more than ten minutes, there was still endless blue ahead.

More than five months later.

That evening, the sea was covered with red clouds. Zhao Rui was meditating when he suddenly heard Shen Chenqing say, "A ship. It's a ship. There is a ship in the sea."

Zhao Rui looked in the direction of the sound and saw a white dot floating on the sea. He turned the boat around and headed straight for the sailboat.

A moment later, on a sloop of war.

A boat captain with two sailors saw that Zhao Rui was not panicking and bowed, "Fisherman Liu Boer, greetings to the inspector."

Zhao Rui sensed that the captain had actually reached the second level of Qi training, so he asked, "Are you also a cultivator?"

Liu Boer bowed and saluted, saying, "When I was traveling with a fleet to do business in the early years, the leader of the fleet taught me a formula, but I was dull and my progress was slow."

Zhao Rui nodded and asked, "Why did you ask me to patrol?"

"Master can control the flying boat, so he must have entered the foundation-building stage. If this is not an inspection, then what else could it be?"

Flying magic tools are standard equipment for foundation-building cultivators. Zhao Rui's flying boat actually borrows the power of a flying sword, which is quite clever.

"My sect is hidden in the mountains and forests. I wonder what the connection is between the foundation-building period and patrols?" Zhao Rui asked.

Liu Boer suddenly understood and explained, "In the territory of Jin, no matter which sect the cultivators are from, once they enter the foundation-building stage, they will go down the mountain to patrol for a few years."

The two asked and answered questions, and Zhao Rui learned a lot of information.

The place they arrived at was a sea area in Fengshan County of Jin State. It was rich in a kind of refining material called golden pearls, and it was a place where many cultivators ventured.

As for how big the Jin State was? What sects were there in Fengshan County? Liu Boer was limited by his vision and could not answer. He only pointed out that there was a town called Jinzhu nearby where many monks gathered.

Before leaving, Zhao Rui suddenly became curious and asked, "You came to this deep sea to collect pearls, can you let me see?"

Liu Boer looked a little embarrassed, but still took out a cloth bag from his chest and poured out three golden pearls.

Zhao Rui picked it up gently with two fingers and felt it carefully. He found that the pearl had excellent compatibility with magic power and was indeed a top-grade material for refining weapons.

Just as he was about to return the pearl, Liu Boer, perhaps misunderstanding him, hurriedly said, "Sir, please be merciful. We are taxed every year. Each household must hand in a gold pearl. If there is less, we will have to do labor service. Now it is September, and we may not be able to find extra."

"Don't worry, I don't want your pearls. I haven't thanked you for asking for directions yet!" Zhao Rui comforted her.

The captain of the boat looked embarrassed and said, "Master, you are too polite. I just asked for directions. How can I thank you?"

Zhao Rui didn't say anything else. He left a bottle of body-strengthening pill and turned back to the Feiyun Boat.

A moment later, Zhao Rui came back from the Feiyun Boat, and Shen Chenqing asked first, "Master Zhao, have you found out where the Tianqing Sect is? If so, it would be safer for us to go directly to the Tianqing Sect."

Zhao Rui shook his head and said, "He is just a low-level casual cultivator, it is impossible for him to know, but he mentioned a place called Jinzhu Town. There are cultivators there, maybe we can find out some information."

As he spoke, he had already driven the flying boat and headed straight towards Jinzhu Town.

About a quarter of an hour later, the coastline gradually appeared, with a concave bay dotted with lights.

Zhao Rui slowed down and flew over the fishing village. With his spiritual eyes, he could see that everyone in the village was ordinary mortals, and there was no trace of any cultivators.

"It seems that the captain did not lie. He just got the fragments by chance and then he was able to achieve this level of cultivation." Zhao Rui said in his heart.

Half an hour later, it was already dark and a large city with countless shining lights appeared in the distance.

Shen Chenqing was the happiest, shaking Zhao Rui's arm and shouting, "We're here, we're finally here."

Qian Xiaoyi exclaimed: "I didn't expect a town to be so prosperous!"

Zhao Rui was also very excited. He spotted a busy street and drove his flying boat straight there.

However, as soon as he entered the city wall, the flying boat suddenly lost control and fell downwards like a kite with a broken string.

Zhao Rui tried his best to avoid crashing into the city wall, and finally made an emergency landing on the military path.

After the flying boat slid several meters, it crashed into the arrow stack with a bang and finally stopped.

"What's going on? Are monsters attacking?" Before the three men could recover from their shock, someone on the city wall shouted.

Footsteps sounded everywhere, and a group of soldiers and a monk in indigo robes rushed out. When they saw the flying boat, they immediately surrounded the people and the boat.

The spiritual energy of those soldiers was faintly fluctuating, and they all seemed to have reached the third level of cultivation. And the monk in the indigo robe was extremely young, only about eighteen or nineteen years old, but his cultivation had reached the eighth level of Qi training.

"You scared me to death!" The monk in the indigo robe looked serious, stared at the three people, and asked, "Are you three so brave? How dare you force your way in? Don't you know there is a no-fly order?"

The soldiers around them were very smart. They drew their weapons, stepped forward, and surrounded the three men more tightly.

Zhao Rui clasped his fists and said, "Fellow Daoist, we are new here and we didn't know there was a no-fly order. Otherwise, how could we dare to force our way in? Look, our flying instruments are all broken."

The monk in indigo robe was slightly surprised when he saw Zhao Rui. The other party had a magic weapon, but he didn't look like a genius at this age. He immediately asked, "Aren't you monks from Jin State?"

Zhao and Qian looked at each other, totally unsure of how to answer. The situation was unclear at the moment, and they couldn't just say they were from the State of Yan.

Only Shen Chenqing's eyes turned, he stuck his head out and said: "We are cultivators from the Tianqing Sect."

Under the night sky, the monk in the indigo robe had his eyes light up, his cheeks flushed slightly, his eyes dodged unconsciously, and he said:

"Tianqing Sect... um, I don't think I've heard of it."
