Chapter 245: Being born in this era is his greatest sorrow
Click!

The neck broke with a sound, and bright red blood gushed out, splashing several feet away.

Leaving a long and narrow bloodstain on the ground.

Liang Hui was holding a knife in one hand and was about to leave.

"The thief is rampant!"

The roar shook the manor.

A burly figure was running on the street, rushing towards Liang Hui at high speed.

This person is one of the six people during the day, and his strength is about the fourth level of foundation building.

Liang Hui watched the other person running, and the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously.

According to records, at the fourth level of foundation building, one can already control magical instruments and fly in the sky instead of running on the ground.

How barren!

Liang Hui sighed in his heart.

The movements of his palm were not slow, his arm was raised high, and a dazzling silver light bloomed on the dagger.

Then, slash down at high speed!
boom!
The short knife made of wolf claws exploded instantly, turning into silver rain all over the sky and smashing towards the burly man.

At this moment, the sturdy man stopped and the anger in his eyes could no longer be suppressed.

A triangular shield flew out from his arms, growing larger and larger as it blocked his body.

Crackling!

It was like rain hitting a pipa, the sky was full of silver rain, and it cut scratches on the shield.

But it was unable to break through and gradually dissipated.

The sturdy man put away his shield and looked at the devastated land and the deserted streets.

His face was extremely ugly, and he shouted to the many disciples who came out to check:
"All disciples, return to your respective houses immediately and remain alert."

the other side.

Liang Hui had eliminated all traces and returned to the stone house.

He sat cross-legged on the stone bed, took out a jade bottle from his arms, poured a pill into his palm, and observed it carefully.

The pill is the size of a thumb, light yellow in color, and exudes a fresh fragrance.

"It should be the Huangya Pill recorded in the miscellaneous books, which increases the speed of foundation building."

"In theory, it only works for people who haven't practiced, but I'm an exception."

After all, Xuanyin Yuefa is not picky about food, as long as it is a treasure from heaven and earth, it can absorb it, plus he has precise control.

Liang Hui shook the jade bottle gently, and his smile became even wider.

There are eight in the jade bottle, which is enough.

He casually put the jade bottle aside and lay down on the stone bed to rest.

He planned to recover his consumed energy before attempting the second level of foundation building.

Liang Hui cleared his mind and soon fell asleep.

The noise continued to come from outside the door, but it did not make Liang Hui get up.

The next day, early in the morning.

Liang Hui woke up from his dream when he heard knocking on the door.

"Qingcang, the elders are calling for a meeting. Go and assemble immediately."

"understood."

Liang Hui stood up, put away the jade bottle, and pushed open the door.

The figure that appeared in the field of vision was the young man who registered his information yesterday.

"Nie Cang, I..."

He stopped talking suddenly before he finished speaking, and looked at the boy whose temperament and appearance had changed with shock.

As a genius at the second level of foundation building, he was very aware of the changes before his eyes.

With trembling fingers, he pointed at Liang Hui and spoke haltingly:
"You... you have reached the first level of foundation building."

"The technique isn't difficult. Isn't it normal to achieve a breakthrough after reading it once?" Liang Hui chuckled, took a step forward.

The young man looked at the boy's back blankly, thinking how could practicing Buddhism not be difficult.

It took him a month to reach the first level of foundation building since he started practicing, and that was because he had been baptized with medicine and exposed to martial arts since he was a child.

The other party was just a farmer outside the city, and he had to risk his life to get this opportunity to practice.

He actually entered the foundation-building stage overnight and recreated the scenes in the myth.

This reminded him of what happened yesterday.

"It turns out that the great man who was once recorded really existed, but is he still useful in this desperate era?"

The young man looked dejected and shook his head to dispel the messy thoughts in his mind.

He ran quickly towards the figure in front of him. A genius like Qingcang must see the future more clearly than a mediocre person like himself.

Along the way, the young man looked respectful and narrated what happened yesterday.

"Guan San and Jiang Qi died, and the elders were furious. The Guan family even announced that they would search the entire city for them, and even pay a price and use tricks to make inferences."

"Really? Interesting!" Liang Hui's voice was full of teasing.

Without the slightest worry, the Guan family could figure out that he would commit suicide directly.

The young man lowered his head, not daring to look at the expressions of the people around him. He quickened his pace and led the way.

Not long after, Liang Hui arrived at the center of the manor.

The six strong men from yesterday were all here, standing at the front of the crowd.

As Liang Hui and the other person appeared, many eyes turned to them and soon noticed that Liang Hui had slightly changed in temperament and appearance.

"You have reached the first level of foundation building." The old man in yellow robe standing at the front of the crowd spoke intermittently.

"The Tao is close to me, it is not difficult to enter the foundation building stage overnight."

Liang Hui walked forward, passed the old man, and came to the front of the young people.

Turn around!

Face six people.

"My fellow elders, I wonder what this gathering is for?"

The old man in yellow robe looked at the young man who was in high spirits. He did not talk about what happened last night, but spoke with a complicated expression:
“You shouldn’t have been born in this era.”

After a pause, he stated the purpose of this call.

"Last night, Guan San and Jiang Qi were killed in their respective stone houses. This is a provocation to the tribe's rules and is absolutely intolerable."

"In order to prevent the murderer from concealing his identity and blending in with the other disciples to avoid being searched, we will identify your identities."

"Elder Xiong, please."

The old man spoke to the burly man beside him, his tone inexplicable.

The burly man was the elder who stopped Liang Hui yesterday.

At this moment, he was wearing a black suit, looking at everyone calmly, holding a white stone in his arms.

"Life Stone, a magical instrument for testing lies, everyone come up one by one and tell us what you did last night?"

"I'll go first!"

"I still have to practice later, and I don't want to waste time."

Liang Hui's eyes were clear. He walked up to Elder Xiong and said:
"I was practicing all night and never left the house."

Everyone focused their attention on the Life Stone.

If Liang Hui had not yet made a breakthrough, no one would have doubted him. After all, he had not yet started practicing, so even if he had a grudge, he could not do anything.

But when the news came that Liang Hui had built the foundation of the Tao overnight, suspicion was inevitable.

Under the curious gaze of everyone, the life stone remained unchanged.

"No lie, you can leave now, next one."

Liang Hui nodded, and his figure disappeared from everyone's sight.

The young men came up one by one and told about their whereabouts last night. The life stone remained unchanged, and soon everyone tried it.

Elder Xiong took back the life stone.

"It seems that the murderer is not hiding among you and should have escaped from the manor."

After he finished speaking, he retreated to the side of the old man in yellow robe.

The old man had a kind expression and calmed the uneasy crowd.

"Don't worry, everyone. The City Lord's Mansion will arrange protective measures around the manor to prevent thieves from breaking in."

"Everyone leave now and concentrate on practicing, so as to enter the foundation-building stage as soon as possible."

Soon the crowd dispersed.

And the news that Liang Hui had entered the foundation-building stage overnight would surely spread throughout the city at an extremely fast speed as the crowd left.

"Elder Xiong, is Qingcang lying?" After the young men left, Yundi couldn't help but ask.

"Is it important?"

With a light sigh, Elder Xiong swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

The old man in yellow robe looked at the woman solemnly.

"Yundi, it doesn't matter whether it is true or not. Now ten Guan Sans and Jiang Qis combined are no match for one Qing Cang."

"If someone like him were born in the past, he would have been a peerless genius, a Taoist, or a Buddhist. We are not worthy of his attention until we die."

"Being born in this era is his greatest sorrow, but it is our luck."

"I have attained the foundation of Taoism overnight!"
