Occasionally, Li Yan and Zhao Min would enter the "earth patch" and sit by the river with green grass for a long time, recalling the past of life and death together when they were left behind on the mainland.

Zikun was also notified by Li Yan's mind before Li Yan's wedding, and chose to interrupt his training to attend Li Yan's wedding. As Qianji was still hitting the middle stage of the golden elixir, Li Yan did not disturb him.

More than half a year passed in a flash. On this day, he and Zhao Min were sitting opposite each other in Li Yan's courtyard.

"My mother is finally going to retreat into seclusion again. I hope she can succeed this time!"

The two of them had just returned from Wei Zhongran. When they were leaving, Zhao Zhi revealed his plan to retreat again. ??

After hearing this, Zhao Min and Li Yan looked at each other and saw joy in each other's eyes.

The most important thing for a person is to have fighting spirit. If even this is lost, then for a cultivator, the path to immortality has come to an end.

No matter what the outcome will be in the future, at least Zhao Zhizhen has confidence again.

"Well, Master has also begun to prepare the 'Ming Xian Powder'. With the help of this medicine, Master has a good chance of breaking through the bottleneck of the realm!"

At Zhao Zhi's request, Li Yan still used his previous title.

This is because Zhao Zhi felt that as Li Yan, the ancestor of Yuan Ying of the Sprite Sect, it might be okay if he called him "Mother" in private out of consideration for the relationship between master and disciple.

But saying it in front of others makes people feel inappropriate. After all, it is the facade of the Demon Sect.

After Li Yan mentioned Wei Zhongran's refining of "Mingxian Powder", Zhao Min also nodded. If Zhao Zhi had the support of such elixir, his chances would be much higher.

"Then when do you plan to go to Fengshen Continent?"

Zhao Min raised his cold face and looked at Li Yan. After thinking about it, Li Yan knew that this matter was finally coming.

"Before that, I still have some things to deal with! By the way, you try to see if you can refine this drop of blood!"

Li Yan turned his hands and found an exquisite jade bottle in his hand, and then handed it to Zhao Min.

"What's this?"

Zhao Min's ice-sculpted face showed some doubts.

"If you refine a drop of blood essence from the 'Immortal Phoenix', your physical body should be greatly strengthened!"

Li Yan handed over the jade bottle as he spoke. Zhao Min also came from the body refining lineage, so the essence and blood of the "Immortal Underworld Phoenix" was also useful to Zhao Min.

When he thought of this, Li Yan couldn't help but take another look at Zhao Min.

Thinking of the astonishing elasticity under the snow-like jade skin, as well as the round and round jade that made him linger every time, he felt a burning feeling in his heart.

After Zhao Min heard this, a look of surprise appeared in her beautiful eyes. She did not notice Li Yan's strange look.

She and Li Yan were already married, so she was used to Li Yan's often fiery eyes.

If she wanted to know what Li Yan was thinking at this moment, she would definitely kick Li Yan away.

"This...is this the essence and blood of the 'Immortal Phoenix'? Could it be that my husband is..."

She used to find it strange that she and Li Yan both practiced the "Qiongqi Purgatory Technique", and she had practiced it longer than Li Yan.

At the same time, she also practiced the White Demon Clan's supreme treasure book "The Heavenly Demon White Jade Plate", which is also the only top body-refining treasure in this world.

But in the end, Li Yan's physical body turned out to be slightly taller than hers. In the past, she thought it was the mutation effect of the fragmented poison body.

But after hearing the name "Immortal Underworld Phoenix" today, Zhao Min immediately thought of a possibility. She knew that "Immortal Underworld Phoenix" was the most popular among monsters.

Worshiped as a "holy beast".

Its level is so high that it is staggering.

"Well, this is one of the things I won a few years ago, but since you have been in seclusion, I don't have time to give it to you!"

After Li Yan got three pieces of silver paper from Qi Jingheng's storage ring, when he saw Zhao Min again, the wedding was about to take place. During that time, the two of them didn't even have time to practice, so he didn't mention it all the time.

"I don't need it, you can just refine it yourself!"

Zhao Min shook his head, but politely refused.

"Min'er, don't worry, I still have a drop of it!

You can refine this drop of 'Immortal Dark Phoenix' essence and blood. I'm going out for a while recently because I got some news about other 'Immortal Dark Phoenix' essence and blood!"

"Is this what you call unprocessed matters?"

"Yes, we can't put off this matter any longer, otherwise we will have long nights and many dreams."

"According to what you said before, I was in retreat when I got the essence and blood, which was after you gave birth to a baby. You haven't passed away for so many years, so the place you are going to must be a dangerous place. Are you sure?"

Zhao Min was extremely smart, and through Li Yan's few words, he guessed the approximate time period when Li Yan received the essence and blood, and the reason why he could not make the trip.

However, she thought that the clue Li Yan got should be in a secret and dangerous place. Such treasures must be in extremely dangerous places, so they cannot be easily obtained.

Otherwise, Li Yan must have passed by long ago and would not have waited until now. This was because he gave up the idea because he felt that he was not strong enough.

She didn't expect that the essence and blood of "Immortal Phoenix" had already fallen into the hands of others. That was because Zhao Min didn't know that the silver paper could not be refined by others.

Li Yan stuffed the exquisite jade bottle into Zhao Min's hand. He knew that Zhao Min did not want to take up such precious cultivation resources.

Although Zhao Min was holding the jade bottle, he did not put it away. He just looked at Li Yan quietly.

Li Yan was also helpless, Zhao Min had a stubborn personality, and she would not accept the things she believed in without a clear explanation.

So he held her hand, and after some deliberation, he roughly told the origin of the essence and blood of the "Immortal Phoenix".

But when it came to refining silver paper, Li Yan felt that it was better for others not to know about the mysterious blood river.

This is not because he doesn't trust Zhao Min, but because there are too many weird and bizarre things in the world of cultivation. Unknown things that even he himself cannot judge, it is best not to appear in other people's memories.

Especially now that Zhao Min's cultivation level is not as good as his own, he reasoned that after repeated experiments, he combined three kinds of poisons and actually melted them into a silver paper cloud.

After listening to Li Yan's narration, Zhao Min realized that the place where Li Yan was going turned out to be some sects, and he calmed down again with a slight smile on his cold face.

"The nine places you are going to either have Nascent Soul monks in charge, or there is a first-class sect near the sect.

If my husband wants to get the remaining four drops of blood, he cannot use fair and aboveboard means. How sure are you?"

Li Yan smiled slightly, with a confident look on his face.

"I have reached a certain level of cultivation in 'Tide Flow', and I also have a method of masking my aura. As long as I don't meet a great monk in the late Nascent Soul stage, no one should be able to discover me.

To take a step back, even if someone discovers me, there are only a handful of people who can keep me here.

What's more, I have already found out exactly which Nascent Soul monks are nearby these nine places, and have already drawn up a plan.

Ways to deal with them in case of emergency."

Li Yan said confidently, but Zhao Min's eyes were as still as water, unmoved.

"Then tell me how to deal with them!"

Zhao Min still asked, and Li Yan could only shake his head in his heart, but a warmth arose in his heart, and then he chuckled and talked about his plans one by one.

The next morning, Li Yan quietly left the Demon Sect, and Zhao Min stopped going out and started refining the essence and blood of the "Immortal Dark Phoenix" in seclusion...

When Li Yan left, he disappeared from the sect for five years!

One day five years later, the token on Zhao Min's waist vibrated slightly while she was practicing. When she came to the hall in front of her, Li Yan was already sitting there, sipping tea.

I haven't seen him for several years, and Li Yan's aura is still as undetectable as that of a mortal.

The moment Li Yan saw Zhao Min, a light flashed in her eyes. Zhao Min also saw Li Yan's expression, and she walked straight to one side and sat down.

"Has your husband noticed it?"

"Although your cultivation has improved, your physical strength does not seem to have increased much. Why is this?"

Li Yan looked Zhao Min up and down with some surprise.

Hearing this, Zhao Min turned over his jade palm, and an exquisite jade bottle appeared in his white palm, and then stretched it out in front of Li Yan.

"Huh? What do you mean by Min'er? Since this thing was given to you, it was meant for you to refine. Why have you still kept it and not practiced it after several years?"

Li Yan saw clearly that the exquisite jade vase was the jade vase that he had used to contain the essence and blood of the "Immortal Dark Phoenix", and his face instantly became a little ugly.

"Husband, you have misunderstood..."

Zhao Min still hasn't styled her hair in a woman's bun, and her appearance is almost the same as before. She still has a long ponytail hanging down her back, but she has an alluring maturity added to her body.

However, he has always maintained his aloofness, which is due to his personality. Even when facing Li Yan, he only smiles on a few occasions.

Li Yan did not take the jade bottle, but stared at Zhao Min with a pair of black and white eyes.

"It's not that I don't refine it, it's that I can't fuse it at all!"

Li Yan was stunned when he heard this.

"Huh? It can't be refined? This thing can be refined during the foundation stage. How could such a situation happen!"

"After I tried to refine it, the magic power in my body would be forcibly expelled from my body. I tried many methods but it didn't work!"

Zhao Min said lightly, as if she was not disappointed at all because she could not refine the essence and blood of the "Immortal Phoenix".

"Expelled by...the magic power...in the body..."

Li Yan's eyes narrowed when he heard this. After a few breaths, he seemed to remember something.

"Is it related to the technique you practice?"

He is a human race, and Zhao Min is also a human race, so there should be no problem in refining it.
