Facing Li Yi's resistance, Ji Xuanchong didn't care, but had a little appreciation.

He waved his hand, and several rays of golden light flew out from his sleeves and landed right in front of the three people.

"Take it, this is the reward given to you by the imperial court!"

Fang Lun and Yuan Zhen were surprised and delighted. The items suspended in mid-air exuded a powerful high-level aura and were exactly the high-level Horcrux they had dreamed of.

They quickly bowed down and said, "Thank you, Lord Shepherd, for the reward!"

Just as the two were about to reach out to get it, Ji Xuanzhong suddenly said: "Have you thought about it? After accepting this thing, you will have to serve in the army for three years. Are you willing?"

Fang Lun and Yuan Zhen said without hesitation: "We are willing!"

For practitioners, three years passed in the blink of an eye, far less than the value of a high-level soul weapon.

Li Yi did not hesitate and reached out to take the Horcrux in front of him.

To him, the battlefield is just a larger training place. If he goes there, he may have better opportunities.

When he touched the Horcrux, all the golden light covering it disappeared, and what came into view was a silver-white metal object about two feet long, with a faint white light flashing on it.

Li Yi held it in his hand, and his palm immediately felt cold, as if he were holding a piece of ice.

Ji Xuanchong saw Li Yi looking at this Horcrux and smiled lightly and said: "This object is called Yuehan Iron. It is forged with cold spiritual objects. It is an offensive Horcrux. Ice Soul Masters can use this object to cast spells, and it has unexpected magical effects!"

Li Yi was overjoyed and felt that this Horcrux was very suitable for him. He said sincerely: "Thank you, Lord Mu Wang, for clearing up the confusion!"

Fang Lun and Yuan Zhen each took off their own Horcruxes. The two Horcruxes were shaped like wrist guards and looked exactly the same. They were just pure defensive Horcruxes.

Although the strength does not look as high as Li Yi's Yuehan Iron, the two of them are very satisfied. After all, this is a high-level Horcrux, a treasure that even seventh-level experts may not have.

After collecting Yue Han Tie, Li Yi asked: "Excuse me, Master Mu Wang, after winning the competition, can I get guidance from Master Guoshi?"

He once heard Jia Yuancun say that after the competition determines the winner, Si Qingkong, a powerful person in the heavenly realm, may personally take action to mobilize the power of heaven and earth to cut off the hair and cleanse the marrow and build a strong foundation.

This is a rare opportunity to improve his strength, and he will never miss it.

Upon hearing Li Yi's inquiry, Fang Lun and Yuan Zhen also looked expectant.

Ji Xuanchong said: "It is true, but the Imperial Master is not in the imperial capital now, but supervising the battle on the border front. If you want to see him, you will have to wait for a while!"

Hearing this, Li Yi quickly said: "Master Mu Wang, when will we leave for the border?"

Ji Xuanchong smiled and said: "You are impatient, but it doesn't hurt to tell you. Master Zhu Li will set off in three days, and you will all go to Yuncheng together."

Yuncheng is the largest city on the border between Tianze and Dawan. It is also a natural chasm that stands between the territories of the two countries. It has millions of troops stationed and is indestructible.

After Ji Xuanchong finished speaking, he glanced at Fang Lun and Yuan Zhen: "But the National Preceptor will test your strength first, and he will only take action once!"

The implication is that Si Qingkong will only cut off the hair and cleanse the marrow of the strongest among the three. If there are no exceptions, Fang Lun and Yuan Zhen may not be involved.

A trace of disappointment flashed across the faces of Fang Lun and Yuan Zhen. The opportunity to imbue the body with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is very rare. Not only the strength of the middle-level experts will be greatly improved, but even the high-level experts will benefit from it.

Although there are heaven-level ancestors in Xuanfeng Palace and Ten Thousand Demons Mansion, they are already very old and live in seclusion all year round. They have no chance to meet, let alone mobilize the power of heaven and earth for them to increase their strength.

This is especially true for Sikong Dian, who ranks first among the five major sects. Their heaven-level ancestor has not shown up for a hundred years, so the most powerful person on the surface is the ninth-level peak soul master Thunder ancestor.

Although there are five heaven-level experts in Tianze Continent, only the National Master Si Qingkong is the youngest, and he is the only one who is willing to give opportunities to support the younger generation.

If Si Qingkong tests their cultivation, there is no doubt that Li Yi has the greatest chance among the three.

Unless the two of them break through level seven in a short period of time and have the strength to compete with Li Yi.

Ji Xuanchong waved his hand and summoned a person who looked like a manager.

Ji Xuan rushed to the three of them and said: "You go down to rest first, and after three days, you will set off with Master Zhu Li!"

Li Yi and the others said nothing more. After thanking them, they followed the steward down the long stairs.

Behind the palace, there is a huge building complex.

Li Yi, Fang Lun, and Yuan Zhen were placed in an exquisite courtyard respectively, waiting to go to the border theater with General Zhu Li in three days.

There were no guards in the courtyard, only young maids assigned to serve him.

I don't know if all the maids of the royal family have such beauty, or if it was a test deliberately set by Ji Xuanchong.

These maids are all young and beautiful, with enchanting figures.

After meeting Li Yi, his eyes were full of eyes and his eyebrows were flirtatious, as if he was letting you take your pick.

The steward who led the way not only turned a blind eye, but said with a smile: "If you have any needs, sir, just tell them, no matter what the request is, they can satisfy it!"

These words were very explicit. Although Li Yi had deep concentration, he couldn't help but feel a slight surge of energy and blood.

He secretly wondered if the situation at Fang Lun and Yuan Zhen's place was the same as here.

The dinner that day was very sumptuous, including not only rare middle-grade animal meat, but also vegetarian dishes made from precious medicinal materials. Especially the taste of the dishes was many times better than those in the outside world.

Although it is not as good as a high-end restaurant in the real world, it is already rare and valuable.

The maids who serve Li Yi have all received strict training. Although they all have the intention of committing themselves, they are charming but not coquettish and not vulgar. Their manners and movements are very appropriate and will not offend anyone.

Li Yi obviously had no intention of favoring them. After dinner, he refused the maids' offer to take baths and walked into his bedroom alone.

Several maids showed a hint of disappointment. It was rare to meet a rising star who was both young and attractive. Unfortunately, he was not a womanizer.

According to the manager, this person is still the number one in this dynasty competition, and his future prospects are limitless.

If you can get his favor, you might be able to reach the sky in one step and escape from this vast and dark palace compound.

Li Yi entered the bedroom and sat down cross-legged.

The soul power swept around and felt it carefully.

It was discovered that except for two sixth-level soul masters stationed in two courtyards a hundred meters away, no one else was watching nearby.

He activated his soul power and formed a barrier, instantly isolating the perception of the two soul masters from outside the room.

The two soul masters were not surprised when they noticed that their perception was blocked.

Their task was just to keep an eye on Li Yi's movements. As long as Li Yi stayed here quietly and didn't run around, they didn't pay attention to anything else.

Besides, with their abilities, they couldn't learn any secrets from a seventh-level soul master.

Li Yi took out a gray Horcrux from the ring and gently triggered it. A flash of blue light flashed through, and a hexagram-shaped halo of light immediately appeared in the room, covering his location.

He got this from a fifth-level soul master. It is said that this soul master's sect is proficient in formations, and the formation soul weapons refined in his sect are all high-quality.

The Horcrux he obtained can form a small protective formation, which can not only protect the body from harm, but also isolate the body from sight and hearing.

This protective formation cannot withstand the attacks of high-level powerful men, but it can provide an immediate warning. If someone forcibly uses their soul power to spy on you, this formation will react immediately.

After Li Yi activated the formation, he immediately closed his eyes and returned to the real world.

He has successfully been promoted to a high-level powerhouse, and it is time to settle the score with Tianyan.

Three days after returning to the real world, in a primeval forest on the border of Worshiping the Moon.

Li Yi met the Donglin spy who came to meet him.

Donglin and Baiyue are not directly adjacent to each other. There are several small countries and a vast virgin forest in between.

Li Yi has a special status and is already the focus of the Moon Worshipers' official attention. He is unable to enter the country with official status.

Under Lu Zhanheng's arrangement, Li Yi first passed through a small country called Mitu, then entered the virgin forest and came to the area near the border of Baiyue.

Donglin's intelligence department installed in Baiyue's territory will send capable spies to lead the way, and then enter Baiyue's territory through secret passages.

The spy waiting in the forest was a dark-skinned man in his thirties, with a strong yet agile body and a very alert gaze.

After correcting the password three times, the man finally confirmed the identities of Li Yi and the other person.

He put away the weapon in his hand and said softly: "Thirty miles ahead is the Moon Worshiping Border. The border guards there are very tight. We have to bypass the guard post and enter from the northern area."

The person who brought Li Yi into the forest was a special police officer from the Criminal Department. His mission was over. After saying hello to the two of them, he immediately left quietly.

After the figure of Secret Agent Mitu disappeared, the man waved gently: "Follow me, let's go to Tatu."

Li Yi asked: "Where is Tatu?"

The man said softly: "Tatu is an organization that sells smuggled goods. Its members include both Mitu people and Moon Worshipers. They have secret transactions with the Moon Worshipers border guards. Their stronghold is in the forest to the north. With their

If you enter the Baiyue territory with your identity, it will not be easy to be suspected."

While walking through the jungle, Li Yi asked: "What's your name?"

The man said calmly: "You can call me Ah Hui, but I won't say my real name. After entering the Moon Worship, I don't know if you can come back alive. If you are caught, my identity will be exposed!"

Li Yi heard his answer and said unexpectedly: "Do you know my name?"

Ah Hui shook his head: "I don't know. I only know that I was ordered to bring a person safely to the territory. The rest was not told, and I don't need to know!"

Li Yi nodded and stopped talking.

The two of them walked in silence for more than three hours through mountains and ridges, overcoming thorns and thorns, and came to a gurgling stream.

Ah Hui's forehead was covered with hot sweat. He leaned down and drank several large gulps before stopping his heavy breathing and taking a breath.

It was summer at this time, the forest was sweltering, and the constant rush made Ah Hui feel a little tired even though he was very skilled.

He glanced at Li Yi and found that this handsome young man had been following him closely. He was never left behind or even shouted tired. He couldn't help but secretly nodded and expressed his approval for this young man.
