Chapter 160 Life extension
Li Yi was honestly very surprised.

Fan Zhizhou, a disciple from an aristocratic family, actually wanted to leave the world and cross the border. His reason for crossing the border was very simple. It was not for survival or fame, but he just wanted to see the charm of the other world, or to pursue a more promising path of cultivation.

Unexpectedly, Fan Zhizhou is a relatively idealistic person.

"Crossing borders is not as good as you think. You are a person of status and position in the four seas and eight continents, and you enjoy endless wealth and glory. Once you cross borders, to be honest, with your strength, it's nothing. Let alone enjoying happiness, you can barely get enough food and clothing. Moreover, crossing borders is a road of no return. Without the opportunity, you can't come back even if you want. You'd better stay in Sanyang City and be your city lord."

Li Yi hit him without any hesitation.

A martial artist who has practiced martial arts cannot be considered a master on Earth. After all, Fan Zhizhou cannot even beat himself.

"If I never come back, that's my fate. I have no regrets. But Brother Li, can you give me such a chance?" Fan Zhizhou said very sincerely.

He revealed so many secrets from all over the world without any lies, with the purpose of making Li Yi know his sincerity.

"Everything has a price. If you want me to take you across the border, that's fine, but I will only consider it if you can afford enough benefits." Li Yi said. He was not averse to taking someone back to Earth. After all, the second Tianqing incident was about to happen. If Fan Zhizhou really went to Earth, he would soon discover how terrifying and evil the Earth was.

The risks involved are not something this warrior can grasp.

You have to know that everyone on Earth now is thinking about leaving the world, and I have never seen anyone who would give up their comfortable life and go to Earth to suffer.

Isn't it nice to enjoy music and dance? Do we have to go to Earth 996?

However, when Fan Zhizhou heard Li Yi's words, his eyes lit up and a hint of excitement surged in his heart.

I thought Li Yi would refuse outright, but I didn't expect this matter could actually be discussed.

All that remains is the question of cost.

If you can afford enough and impress Li Yi, cross-border things will most likely be successful.

Thinking of this, Fan Zhizhou said, "I understand what you mean, Brother Li, but this matter is of great importance. I alone cannot come up with enough conditions to satisfy you, Brother Li, but the entire Fan family may be able to do it. Please give me some time, Brother Li. I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."

"Then I'm looking forward to it. But you still owe me a batch of Yin horses. Remember to send them to my house." Li Yi also wanted to see how much benefit he could get from Fan Zhizhou.

If he wants to continue to advance in his martial arts, he must have a method of practice.

As a disciple of an aristocratic family, Fan Zhizhou must have a complete martial arts inheritance, which will be of great help to Li Yi in the future, so he doesn't mind painting a pie in the sky for Fan Zhizhou.

"Don't worry, Brother Li. I will definitely fulfill my promise." Fan Zhizhou said again with a solemn vow.

Li Yi glanced at him and said no more: "I still have to go kill ghosts and grab Shou. If I continue chatting with you like this, it will be dawn soon."

After saying that, he rode on the Yin Horse again, leaped into the air, and quickly disappeared into the darkness of Sanyang City.

Afterwards, he continued to move around the city, killing the life-collecting ghosts and taking away people's lifespans.

Although Fan Zhizhou cannot see ghosts, he knew what Li Yi was doing at the moment. He did not stop him. The people in the four seas and eight continents have been collecting life spans for thousands of years. The little life span that Li Yi robbed in one day is not worth mentioning and cannot shake the world. If he wants to change all this, he can only do as he said, practice across the boundaries and create a new world.

"I just don't know if this action will bring down the wrath of the Yin God. I remember that this area of ​​Xingzhou is not under the jurisdiction of the Yin God of my Fan family, but under the jurisdiction of the Meng family of Qingzhou." Fan Zhizhou pondered.

The Yin gods worshipped by the aristocratic families collect lifespans within the scope of each other's jurisdiction. This is a rule set by ghosts and gods since ancient times. The purpose is to make the aristocratic families check and balance each other, supervise each other, and avoid deceiving superiors and concealing the truth from subordinates.

But Li Yi doesn't care about all that. He just wants to take back the life of those around him, nothing more.

It was probably late at night.

Li Yi felt that he had killed enough ghosts today, and the total life span he had intercepted was at least three hundred years. Even if half of this life span was reduced, it would be enough to make up for the losses of his master, Zhao Qian, and Rong Niang. Although there were more life spans to be snatched, he did not go, because he did not want to increase his life span, he just wanted to get back what he had lost, that's all.

After doing all this, he rode the Yin horse back to the mansion.

"Senior brother."

"Brother Yi."

As soon as he returned to the room, he found that Rong Niang and Zhao Qian had woken up at some point. When they saw Li Yi returning, they were immediately relieved, and their eyes were full of concern.

"Brother, where have you been? We woke up in the middle of the night and found that you were not in the house, and the doors and windows were open. We thought you were lost outside, which really worried us." Rong Niang hurriedly walked forward and looked at Li Yi. Seeing that Li Yi was not injured, she felt relieved.

"You can't walk around randomly tonight. Brother Yi, you are very powerful and have no taboos, but you still have to pay more attention to some taboos and don't joke with your own life. I saw Brother Yi disappeared before, and I was scared to death." Zhao Qian also looked worried, afraid that Li Yi had suddenly disappeared in such a strange way.

Li Yi took a bundle of white bamboo off the Yin Horse's back and said, "I'm sorry, I left in a hurry without telling you. I was just killing ghosts. Your world is really scary. On the first day of every month, countless ghosts roam the world, and use special methods to take the life span of the living. You have lived here for more than ten or twenty years, but you didn't notice it at all. Rong Niang, when you were asleep just now, a ghost came to your bedside, used this ghost bamboo to breathe into you, and stole a month's life span from you." "Look, there are already several white hairs on your head."

After saying that, Li Yi walked over and pulled out a few white hairs from Rong Niang's head.

The two of them took a look and found that it was indeed the case.

Immediately, Rong Niang showed a horrified expression on her face: "How could this happen? Brother, are there really ghosts stealing the lifespan of the living?"

"Brother Yi, what you said is so scary. Doesn't this kind of thing only happen in Ghost Street? How could it happen here too?" Zhao Qian also opened her eyes wide in an instant, feeling inexplicable fear.

She never imagined that on the first night of every month an invisible ghost would come to her bed and steal her life.

This kind of thing is creepy just thinking about it.

"This involves a shocking secret of your four seas and eight continents. It's useless for me to tell you now. You don't need to worry about it. Just know that on the first day of every month, there will be ghosts coming to you to take your life. Although the ghosts don't take much at one time, they can't withstand years of oppression."

Li Yi shook his head slightly and said, "This is why people from all over the world have short life spans. Although martial artists can live a few decades longer, it is still limited. Most of your life span has been given to ghosts and gods. I went out at night this time to help you get back the life span you lost before. Each of these white ghost bamboos represents one year of life span. I have snatched back 300 years of life span, and I will give it to you later."

The more they listened, the more shocked they became, as if their entire worldview had been overturned. They stood there in a daze for a long time, unable to come back to their senses.

Li Yi also knew that it was a bit difficult for them to accept such a terrible reality all at once. After all, even he, an outsider, felt shocked and unbelievable, let alone Zhao Qian and Rong Niang, two locals.

After a while.

Only gradually did Rong Niang and Zhao Qian accept this horrible and cruel truth.

"Then, then Brother, what should we do from now on?" Rong Niang trembled all over. "Even after this month, there is still next month, and the month after that. Not only me, Master, Brother, but also everyone else. Everyone is having their lifespan taken away by ghosts and gods."

Li Yi sighed and said, "To be honest, I can't handle it either. This is a thousand-year-old problem in the four seas and eight continents. If you want to solve it, you have to become a warrior stronger than the Dharma Realm. Now, my strength is not enough to deal with these troubles. All I can do is take good care of you guys. As for the others, I am powerless."

"But don't despair. When I become stronger and reach the God Training Realm, the Yin Gods won't dare to attack you. A strong man who has reached the God Training Realm can protect an area from being disturbed by ghosts and gods."

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. You should replenish your life span first. I learned the method of use from the ghost messenger I killed. I don't know if it will work."

After saying that, he picked up a white ghost bamboo and blew towards Rong Niang. Sure enough, in the sight of his psychic, a white breath was blown out.

"Rong Niang, open your mouth and absorb this life force back." Li Yi said immediately.

Rong Niang opened her little mouth, took a deep breath, and immediately felt a special breath being swallowed by her. This breath was very nourishing, like a strong medicine, making people feel comfortable all over.

As a white ghost bamboo turned from white to black, its one year's life span was consumed, but when it fell on Rong Niang, it only replenished her with half a year's life span.

"Rong Niang, do you feel anything?" Li Yi asked.

"It's very comfortable. I feel like I've become a lot younger, my body is more energetic, and my blood seems to be more vigorous. This feeling is incredible." Rong Niang carefully felt the changes in herself and then said it out loud.

"That's good, it means the life span has been successfully returned. In order to avoid any further complications, Zhao Qian, you and Rong Niang will give each other's life span, take back the life span you have lost, and give the rest to the master and skinny monkey. As for the remaining ones, you can do whatever you want and give them to whoever you want." Li Yi said immediately.

"Brother Yi, what about you?" Zhao Qian said, "You spent eighty years of your life to buy coffins for father. Now you should be the one who needs it the most. You should replenish it. Rong Niang, Master and I can each take a little, and the rest will go to Brother Yi."

"I?"

Li Yi smiled and said, "I still have 80 years of life left in me. How dare they come to me to claim my life? I will kill them if I see them. If they are not afraid of death, just come and do it."

"Ah? Can you still deny your debt?" Zhao Qian was very surprised, as if she had never seen such a method before.

Li Yi said, "You warriors from all over the world cannot see ghosts, so you can't stop them from taking your life span. But I am different. I can see ghosts with my eyes and beat them with my fists. Ghosts can't get close to me, so I don't worry about my life span being taken away. That's why I have a long life span. But you all have short lives, so you should supplement them. If it's not enough, I'll go and rob them again on the first day of next month."

"Brother, is it dangerous to snatch life from the hands of ghosts and gods?" Rong Niang said, "Brother, you must not take risks for us. This should only happen once, and you can't do it again."

"Don't worry. It may be dangerous to rob now, but when I become stronger, it will be safe." Li Yi said, "But by then, it won't be as simple as robbing the life span. I might kill those evil ghosts and gods and completely stop the ghosts and gods from taking the life span."

"By the way, you must keep this matter a secret. Do not reveal it to anyone else except Master. Most people in the four seas and eight continents are kept in the dark. If you reveal such a big secret, you will definitely get into trouble."

"Brother Yi, I've got it. I won't tell anyone." Zhao Qian nodded hurriedly, and Rong Niang on the side also immediately said that she would not tell anyone.
