Chapter 146: The Tempting Divine Treasure
"Brothers, have you heard that the little Tianzun of Daoyi Holy Land stole the holy land's treasure and betrayed the sect."

"I know this. Li Donglai, the Saint of Daoyi, is leading the disciples of Daoyi Holy Land to search for his whereabouts."

"Is that little Tianzun crazy? Why did he betray his religion? Isn't the little Tianzun known for his status being on par with Daoyi Saint Lord?"

"What's the big deal? If you knew what the little Tianzun took away from Daoyi Holy Land, you wouldn't be surprised at all."

In the ancient city of Youyue, Li Zhi, who had changed his appearance, kept going in and out of various restaurants, listening to whether the monks in the restaurants would talk about news related to him. Finally, in a restaurant opened by the Feng clan, he met several young people who looked like geniuses from a small sect who were discussing this matter.

After sitting in the box next to them, Li Zhi began to listen to their conversation.

Li Zhi soon heard a young man say mysteriously to his friends: "Yunyu Tower just received a few jars of thousand-year-old wine today. If any of you treat me to a bottle of thousand-year-old wine, I will tell him a top-secret news."

"Brother Wang, tell us what the news is. Why are you and your brothers playing charades? We are brothers who know each other well." Another young man urged curiously.

"That's right, Brother Wang. Why are you keeping us in suspense? If the news is really worth a fortune, we won't be short of your spirit wine. It's just thousand-year-old spirit wine, I can afford it. If the news is really valuable, we will find a way to get it for you even if it's ten-thousand-year-old spirit wine."

"Well, that's fine. My cousin told me this news secretly. After you know it, you must not spread it privately, otherwise we will lose our chance to make a fortune."

"Brother Wang, please speak quickly."

The five or six young men in the box all stretched their necks, waiting for the young man surnamed Wang to tell them the secret.

At this moment, the young man surnamed Wang suddenly stood up from his seat, walked around the box, knocked on the wall, and said, "I'm afraid the walls have ears, so I'd better not say anything."

"Who in Youyue City dares to eavesdrop on our brothers' gathering? Are they tired of living? Since my brother is worried that there are ears on the other side of the wall, I will seal the ears outside the wall. My grandfather just helped me refine a set of magic array a few days ago, which can block all movements inside and outside."

Then, the man took out a formation plate with eight small flags stuck on it, and then sacrificed the formation plate. The eight small flags were immediately stuck on the walls around the box, and a layer of spiritual light began to flicker.

They suddenly could not hear any sound outside the box, as if the space inside and outside the box was completely isolated.

Li Zhi, who was originally sitting in the next box listening to their conversation, could no longer hear any sound.

However, this barrier was not a problem for him.

Among those young men, the one with the highest cultivation level had just reached the level of perfection in the Taoist Palace Secret Realm.

That array plate was just a magic array made by a cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm, and it was almost useless in front of Li Zhi.

Li Zhi pointed directly at the wall of the box, and instantly created an invisible hole in the formation barrier that the young man had just set up, without alarming them during the whole process.

Then, Li Zhi heard the young man surnamed Wang say to the others, "You should all know that my cousin married the great-great-grandson of a great elder of Daoyi Holy Land. This news was told to me by my cousin when she returned home to visit her family yesterday."

"Brother Wang, skip your cousin and go straight to the news." Someone urged impatiently.

"Zhang Peng, what do you mean? My cousin took the risk to tell me this news, and I kindly shared this news with everyone, but you don't respect her." The young man surnamed Wang was immediately unhappy.

"You talk so much nonsense." Li Zhi in the next box felt that this young man surnamed Wang was a bit long-winded. He was a talkative young man who couldn't keep secrets and loved to show off.

"Brother Wang, this is what our sister said. The brothers are anxious." Zhang Peng immediately picked up the wine glass and apologized to the young man named Wang.

The others also complimented the young man surnamed Wang, praising him for his righteousness and his cousin for her beauty and kindness.

In short, he said a lot of free nonsense, which made the young man surnamed Wang very happy. He said, "My cousin told me that the little Tianzun from Daoyi Holy Land did not steal the treasure of Daoyi Holy Land at all, and that the little Tianzun was not from Daoyi Holy Land at all. It was the people of Daoyi Holy Land who tricked him into going to the Holy Land to explore an ancient artifact for them, but in the end, the little Tianzun suffered a serious backlash and became a useless person."

"What kind of secret is this?" someone said disappointedly on the spot.

"I haven't finished speaking yet. My cousin said that all the great elders of Daoyi Holy Land know that the little Tianzun once had an amazing fortune, which allowed him to cultivate to the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm at the age of twelve or thirteen."

"Could it be that Saint Daoyi led people to search for the whereabouts of that little celestial master in order to seize his good fortune?"

"Brother Wang, what good fortune does that little celestial master have that is worthy of a great figure like Daoyi Shengzi to personally take action?"

"I'm telling you, you must not spread this."

"Brother Wang, you have something to say. We are all listening."

"It is said that the little celestial master has the immortal elixir, astonishing ancient scriptures, and immortal treasures worth tens of millions of kilograms of pure source."

"Is this true?" There was greed in almost everyone's eyes.

"Brother Wang, that little celestial master is now useless. Do we have a chance to compete for his amazing fortune?"

"I asked a few of you guys out today because I wanted to gather everyone's strength to fight for the divine treasure on that little celestial master. My cousin said that the little celestial master won't be able to use even a trace of his magic power within three years, and he's no different from a useless person."

Li Zhi stopped listening to their subsequent discussion and sat there thinking seriously about what they said.

When I thought about it carefully, it was just as they said, I was carrying an amazing treasure on me.

In terms of cultivation methods, in addition to the "Xiantian Changsheng Gong" which is the fundamental scripture for cultivation, there are four volumes of "Western Emperor Scripture", one volume of "Taoism Scripture", and one volume of "Heaven-Devouring Demon Art" at the level of the Great Emperor's ancient scriptures, and there are countless other scriptures at the saint level.

In terms of weapons and magical treasures, there is a map of quasi-emperor divine weapons, two incomplete holy weapons, the Luoyang shovel and the snake skin Qiankun bag, a holy halberd, the corpse of a saint, a furnace made of star divine iron, a demonic god king bone mirror, a set of life divine coffins, and several other weapons.

In terms of immortal treasures and elixirs, there are more than twenty holy medicines that are more than ten thousand years old, several elixirs of the King of Medicine level, two magical medicine eggs of the Black Tortoise Immortal Medicine, half a plant of human-shaped Immortal Medicine, more than eight hundred pieces of mature enlightenment tea leaves, some divine spring water, half a basin of seven-colored phoenix blood, some almost mature Qilin Holy Spirit blood, a piece of Zodiac Divine Gold, several immortal source blocks and divine source blocks, nine magic pills, and several other immortal treasures like pure source.

I don't know, I was taken aback.

Li Zhi himself was secretly shocked. He didn't expect that after consuming so many immortal treasures and completing nine transformations of foundation building, he still had so many immortal treasures on him.

I'm afraid even saints would become jealous after seeing these treasures.

It is no wonder that after knowing that he could not use his magic power, Saint Son Daoyi began to look for his whereabouts.

I'm afraid their actions were tacitly approved by the top leaders of Daoyi Holy Land.

After all, the people in Daoyi Holy Land knew that he had bought the rhizome of the Immortal Medicine at the auction that year and had displayed his astonishing wealth.

If they knew that I had other rare treasures on me, real danger would probably come.

By then, not only will the younger monks come to find him, but those living fossils who want to extend their lives will most likely jump out to cause trouble for him.

However, it happened too suddenly, catching people off guard.

How come I suddenly became so popular in the eyes of others?
No one noticed me before.

Is the era of quietly making a fortune over?

Li Zhi kept wondering in his mind why this situation happened?
Soon he understood everything.

Sure enough, when a person grows to a certain level, it becomes very difficult to continue hiding and keeping a low profile.

The dazzling light cannot be hidden.

He looks like he is only twelve or thirteen years old, but he has already reached the secret realm of dragon transformation, which others have to practice for hundreds of years to achieve. It is impossible not to attract attention with such a terrifying talent.

It seems that he must continue to improve his cultivation quickly and raise his cultivation to the second level of immortal as soon as possible, otherwise he will become a coveted moving treasure trove.

Only by becoming powerful can you not be afraid of anyone in the world.

Li Zhi secretly decided that it was time to return to the Northern Territory.

Only by going to the Northern Territory would he have the opportunity to quickly complete his training in the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm.

However, before returning to the Northern Territory, he still wanted to figure out how he was exposed.

Two hours later, the young monks had their fill of food and drink and left Yunyu Tower.

Li Zhi followed secretly, hoping to find out the reason.

During the competition with Ji Zi, Li Zhi figured out a method of hiding in the void. Hiding in the void was enough for him to avoid the detection of the spiritual thoughts of ordinary powerful people.

Unless one has extremely sharp spiritual perception, it is almost impossible to detect that Li Zhi is hiding in the void.

This hiding method not only draws on Ji Zi's Void Magic, but also combines the Changsheng Locking Body Art, as well as the invisibility method inherited from the Killer God Dynasty Heavenly Court.

Along the way, Li Zhi followed the monks silently like a ghost. Finally, they stopped in the forest where Li Zhi walked out of the domain gate.

Li Zhi thought to himself, "Master Yuxuan, you are really unreliable. You said you would quietly send me back to the vicinity of Tianxuan Holy Land, but I didn't expect that this place has been known by so many people."

But before Li Xing could take action, seven or eight gray-clothed men suddenly jumped out from the surrounding woods and directly suppressed the young monks.

Afterwards, those men in gray searched the souls of those young men in an extremely ruthless manner.

After the soul search was completed, a gray-clothed man who searched Zhang Peng's soul said with some disappointment: "They are just some monks from small sects who want to take advantage of the situation."

Another gray-clothed man who was searching the soul of the young man surnamed Wang said, "The Daoyi Holy Land is really a place where there are many leaks. The news that the long-lived Taoist priest possessed a world-shaking secret has actually been leaked out."

"Sir, are we still going to wait here?" Then, the man in gray turned around and said to a man in gray wearing a black metal mask.

"Let's go. There's not much point in staying here anymore." The man in the black mask spoke in a somewhat old voice.

Then, the group of men in gray left.

After a long time, Li Zhi finally appeared in the forest. He looked in the direction where they disappeared and fell into deep thought.

"It seems that it's not just the people from Daoyi Holy Land who are looking for me. What are the origins of these gray-clothed people?"

Afterwards, Li Zhi transformed himself into a boy collecting herbs and began wandering in the surrounding mountains and forests.

Sure enough, he met another group of people, who turned out to be cultivators from the Ji family.

Soon, Li Zhi found some disciples from Yaoguang Holy Land nearby.

A few days later, cultivators from Dayan Holy Land, Zifu Holy Land, Sixiang Holy Land, and Wanchu Holy Land all appeared in the nearby mountains and forests.

It seemed that within just a few days, Li Zhi had become a celebrity that attracted the attention of all the major sects in the Central Region.

Moreover, Li Zhi also saw people from the Central Region Demon Clan roaming around in the nearby mountains and forests.

It seems like he is also looking for his whereabouts.

Upon seeing this, Li Zhi stopped looking for the trace of Saint Daoyi.

At this time, it is better to do less than more, and it is better to be still than to move.

If they couldn't find him, those people would probably lose their patience soon.

Thinking of this, Li Zhi flew towards the immortal vein where Doctor Wang lived in seclusion.

I want to get some information from Doctor Wang.

However, before he could get close to the mountain range where Doctor Wang’s thatched cottage was located, he was stopped on the road by two middle-aged men from the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm.

"Kid, stop right there." One of the middle-aged men shouted at Li Zhi aggressively.

Li Zhi, who was disguised as a young monk from the Taoist secret realm, seemed to be frightened and was almost yelled down by his shout.

"Haha." Li Zhi's funny actions made the two middle-aged men laugh.

"Who are you?" Li Zhi, who fell to the ground, shouted at the two men angrily.

"Good boy, you have quite a bad temper." One of the middle-aged men directly released the aura of a cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm and pressed towards Li Zhi.

A trace of fear suddenly appeared on Li Zhi's face, and he quickly said, "Senior, please spare my life. I am not a bad guy. I am a herbalist nearby, and I am a herbalist who specializes in finding spiritual herbs for Senior Doctor Wang."

"So you are working for Divine Doctor Wang. Divine Doctor Wang has gone into seclusion to practice. You should return the same way you came." The cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Realm who originally wanted to take action retracted his aura and said to Li Zhi.

"It is impossible for the senior genius doctor to be in seclusion. Just last month, the senior genius doctor asked me to help him find a star grass as soon as possible. How could he suddenly go into seclusion? Who are you? How dare you seal off the senior genius doctor's thatched cottage?" Li Zhi didn't seem to believe what they said.

"Boy, how dare you talk to us like that? Are you looking for death?" The middle-aged man did not seem to expect Li Zhi to be so bold.

"Don't come over here. Otherwise I will call the Divine Doctor Senior." Seeing that the two cultivators from the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm were about to take action, Li Zhi hurriedly took out a jade talisman given to him by Divine Doctor Wang and said.

“Forget it, let this herbalist go, otherwise Doctor Wang will be suspicious.” One of the middle-aged men from the Dragon Transformation Realm said after thinking for a while after seeing the jade talisman in Li Zhi’s hand.

The other middle-aged man took out a portrait of Li Zhi and asked, "Have you seen this little Taoist priest?"

Li Zhi frowned and asked, "Who are you and why are you looking for that young Taoist priest?"

"Have you seen him? Tell us quickly, where is he?" the middle-aged man immediately said excitedly.

Li Zhi pointed to the sacred land of Tianxuan Holy Land and said, "That young Taoist priest lives there. I even helped him open up a cave on the mountain."

"Where exactly is he? Take us to find him." Two middle-aged men from the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm instantly appeared beside Li Zhi and were about to reach out to grab his arms.

"Who are you?" Li Zhi quickly stepped back, holding the jade talisman given by Doctor Wang in his hand, and looked at them warily.

"We are from the Wind Clan. Now you can take us to see the young Taoist priest. Don't worry, after we meet him, we will give you a thousand kilograms of pure source as a reward, which is enough for you to harvest herbs in the mountains for several years."

"No, I still have to give the herbs to the great doctor." Li Zhi shook his head.

After the two middle-aged men looked at each other, they did not force Li Zhi, but said: "Then go quickly and come back soon, we will wait for you here."

Afterwards, Li Zhi came to the thatched cottage of Doctor Wang.

At this moment, Doctor Wang’s thatched cottage was very lively, with seven or eight unfamiliar powerful people visiting here.

After seeing Li Zhi coming, they all focused their attention on him, and even kept scanning Li Zhi's body with their spiritual thoughts.

However, Li Zhi is no longer the same person he was before, how could they simply see through him with their divine sense?

After seeing Divine Doctor Wang, Li Zhi quickly said, "Senior Divine Doctor, I found the Star Grass you asked me to help you find."

A hint of doubt flashed in Doctor Wang's eyes. He seemed not to know Li Zhi, and he did not ask anyone to help him find the star grass.

But when he saw the jade talisman for entering and exiting the formation that he had given to Li Zhi hanging around Li Zhi's waist, he instantly understood the identity of the strange young man in front of him, and smiled and said, "Medicine boy, thank you for your hard work."

The other great men saw that Doctor Wang and Li Zhi seemed to have known each other for a long time, and then they stopped observing him.

Afterwards, Doctor Wang took Li Zhi into his medicine room.

"Changshou, why are you back again? There are people everywhere looking for you. You should leave the Central Region as soon as possible." Doctor Wang said to Li Zhi anxiously.

"Senior, what is going on? Why are so many people suddenly coming to see me?" Li Zhi asked.

"I'm not sure about the specific reason. Those people outside came to my place almost at the same time. They didn't say what they came for, they just sat here and refused to leave. Now that I think about it, they were waiting for you to come to me on your own initiative."

"I am so popular?" Li Zhi suddenly laughed.

"Changshou, how can you still laugh at this moment? I guess they are eyeing the magic pill you have." Doctor Wang was anxious for Li Zhizhu.

"It's okay. They're targeting the magic pills on me. Let's see if they have the ability to snatch those magic pills from me." Li Zhi said calmly with murderous intent in his eyes.

"What are you going to do?" asked Doctor Wang.

"Don't they want magic pills? Then I will send them to the place where the spiritual medicine grows. There, there is not only the King of Medicine who can refine magic pills, but also countless magical treasures. It depends on whether they have the ability to bring out the magical treasures." Li Zhi said with a smile.

"Changshou, listen to my advice. Now is not the time to be angry. Those people outside are all from the major holy places. You still have a chance to leave quietly before they find your whereabouts." Doctor Wang advised.

"Thank you, senior doctor. I know what to do." Li Zhi said.

Afterwards, Li Zhi took out an ordinary star grass and handed it to Divine Doctor Wang, saying loudly, "Senior Divine Doctor, I'm leaving now."

After leaving the medicine house, Doctor Wang said, "Medicine boy, the outside world is not peaceful recently. Be careful when you go into the mountains to collect herbs."

Under the gaze of a group of powerful people, Li Zhi left Doctor Wang's thatched cottage.
