Chapter 179 The Terrible Old Town

At night, Li Yi left the training base.

He discussed the team formation with Lin Yue. According to their ideas, it would be best to form a five-man team. However, they are still missing two teammates, one is a sniper and the other is a practitioner in charge of logistics. The former requires very professional sniping skills and the latter requires a large enough social network.

And both of them must be trustworthy.

This is not easy to find.

However, Lin Yue also said that if you really can’t find teammates, you can first form a team of three and then slowly look for new teammates.

But no matter what, the matter has been roughly settled, and we just have to wait for a reply from Mr. Zheng tomorrow morning.

I believe Zheng Gong will be very happy to hear this news. After all, he has been waiting for this opportunity. It’s just that he had weak connections and insufficient strength before, so he could not form a qualified team. But it will be different if Li Yi and Lin Yue take the lead. Both of them are powerful practitioners and are the core of the team. As long as the two of them nod, a team can be formed immediately.

"Wait, I think I'm going the wrong way. This is the way back to the old city. I've moved now, so I should be going back to the Peace Financial Building."

Suddenly, Li Yi stopped and found himself on his way back to his hometown.

He had no choice but to change the route and quickly leave the city because he had heard from Lu Jue that the old city was not very safe and many people had moved away.

Li Yi had already smelled something wrong during the day, otherwise he wouldn't have been in such a hurry to move.

"I don't want to get into any danger here."

Thinking of this, Li Yi immediately sped up and ran quickly through the alleys. He tried to leave the city as quickly as possible and return to a relatively safe place.

There was no sound around at this moment, and the streets were even quieter. Not even a light could be seen in the nearby residential buildings. If everything around him was not so familiar, Li Yi would have thought that he had entered the danger zone. It was hard to imagine that the old city area that was once quite popular would become like this in less than a month.

When Li Yi quickly passed under a residential building, his nose twitched.

A strong stench of corpse hit me in the face.

His face changed, his whole body tensed up, his pupils lit up, and he subconsciously glanced towards the building.

Although the building was dark and without lights, Li Yi's eyes could see at night. He saw at a glance that the windows and corridors of the dim building were full of people. These people stood there motionless like statues, with terrible corpse spots all over their faces. Some people's faces were even rotten and their skin was constantly peeling off.

Li Yi's vertical pupil seemed to attract the attention of the people in the building.

Then, pairs of strange eyes looked towards him.

But in the time when the people in the building turned around and looked at Li Yi, Li Yi had already passed through the building at his own speed and disappeared at the corner of the street without being caught by these people's sight.

Looking at the empty streets, everyone in the building slowly withdrew their gazes, and finally stood motionless in the dim building as before.

"What were those people in the building just now? Corpses? Or ghosts? I don't know, but I am sure that there is a huge danger hidden in that building, and I can't even deal with it with my current strength."

At this moment, Li Yi did not stop. He had already moved far enough away, but the unintentional glance just now still made people feel scared. When the strong stench of corpse hit him in the face, all his senses were warning. Fortunately, he acted quickly and left the danger zone in the shortest time, otherwise he might really provoke something that he shouldn't provoke.

"The old city has become like this, no wonder there is no one here. Who dares to stay here? If these things are not resolved, the impact will only get bigger and bigger. By then, let alone the old city, even Anding District will be affected. By that time, the entire Tianchang City will not be suitable for staying." Li Yi said to himself.

With a bit of uneasiness and anxiety, he left the old city as quickly as possible.

At this moment, Li Yi had already seen the Peace Financial Building that belonged to him in the distance.

But when he raised his head, his face did not show relief, but rather a solemn look.

Because, in the dark night, he saw a huge Spider-man lying on the top of a nearby residential building. No, not just one, but two or three. There were also some Spider-men on the walls of other nearby residential buildings. With a quick glance, he could see at least seven or eight Spider-men.

He had seen these Spider-Men before. The first time he saw them was in the danger zone, the second time he saw them in the abandoned city area. This was the third time.

"No way, these Spider-Men have sneaked into the old city? And the number seems to have increased, and their size has become bigger. Didn't the Investigation Bureau notice it at all? No, that's not right. It's not that the Investigation Bureau didn't notice it, but the situation has changed too quickly recently. Some things simply cannot be dealt with in time." Li Yi's eyes were shining, and at the same time, he showed a look of worry.

Perhaps the current situation is worse than I imagined.

"Wait, what is that Spider-Man doing?" suddenly.

Li Yi's eyes moved, and he saw a Spider-Man lying on the wall slowly moving. A slender and skinny hand flexibly opened the window of a residential building, and then the huge body crawled inside through the open window little by little.

There was a light in the bedroom of that family.

It can be seen that there are people living there, and it is not an uninhabited house.

Spider-Man acted very carefully, and such a big movement did not attract the slightest attention of the people around him. If nothing unexpected happened, it would take less than a few tens of seconds for Spider-Man to completely get into that house, and then that family would be in danger.

Seeing this, Li Yi took out the sniper rifle from behind without any hesitation, squatted down, pulled the bolt to load the rifle, and then aimed directly at the Spider-Man.

Pull the trigger.

The sniper rifle fired instantly and the bullet was fired.

"boom!"

The sound of gunfire echoed around the city.

next moment.

In Li Yi's sight, the Spider-Man who had almost sneaked into the house was instantly hit in the body. Although this was not a special type of bullet, the power was enough to kill him. In just a blink of an eye, a hideous gash was pierced through the body of the huge Spider-Man. Then blood splattered, several arms twitched, and he fell headfirst onto the balcony.

Startled by the gunshot, the other Spider-Men around immediately scattered and disappeared from Li Yi's sight in the blink of an eye.

Li Yi wanted to raise his gun and shoot again but he couldn't find the opportunity.

"This thing is too agile. It will run away as soon as it hears any noise. It's hard to kill it all. Moreover, these spiders seem to reproduce. The extremely huge white spider that Wang Jian and I saw in the abandoned city last time was probably the mother. Sure enough, what Wang Jian said at the time was right. The failure to hunt it that time left a hidden danger, which has now caused a disaster."

He also felt a little regretful in his heart. It would have been better if he had shot the mother Spider-Man at that time. He Xiong originally wanted to take action at that time, but a man-bear suddenly appeared and disrupted his plan.

But there's no point in thinking so much now.

After Li Yi was sure that all the Spider-Men around him had run away, he had no choice but to put away his sniper rifle and leave quickly.

At this moment, a scream was heard from the family just now, and then the lights were turned on, and a figure appeared on the balcony.

Obviously, Li Yi's gunshots also disturbed the residents of that household.

Li Yi ignored it and did not recycle the Spider-Man, because he knew that the living conditions of the residents still living here must be poor under such circumstances. He might as well be a good person and leave the shot Spider-Man to that family. They can exchange the Spider-Man for money tomorrow. The price of recycling ferocious beasts is so high now, it is enough to change the fate of this family.

When I think about it this way, I am really a good person and have nothing to do with being born evil.

soon.

Li Yi completely left the old city area. The surroundings were much safer at this time. There were more people nearby and lights were on around.

The reason why the situation here is much better is that you will reach a stable area further ahead, and there will be many practitioners passing by nearby.

The ferocious beasts are all intelligent to a certain extent. When they see many practitioners entering and leaving the stable area, they will naturally avoid this area and dare not approach it. That is why people feel that this place is very safe.

Li Yi quickly arrived downstairs at the Peace Financial Building.

He looked around and found no danger for the time being, and there was no Spider-Man lying on the wall of the building. However, he soon noticed that there were five cars parked in the square under the building. Among them were three pickup trucks, an SUV, and an armored vehicle. They were all brand new and had been registered today.

"It should be Zheng Lan who bought it. She is really efficient. What she said today was done today." Li Yi nodded secretly. It just so happened that he had the idea of ​​forming a team. He needed a car for travel, and it was necessary to buy a few more as backup. Through facial recognition, he opened the door of the building and walked into the lobby on the first floor.

The lights here are bright and clear.

Li Yi first went to the room on the first floor to greet the silent parents, and took a look at the operation of the medical cabin. He felt relieved after confirming that his parents were fine. However, his parents showed no signs of waking up, which made him feel disappointed, because it was not that the silent ones had not awakened, but he did not seem to be a lucky person, and this kind of thing did not happen to him.

"I have some money now. Maybe I should find someone to consult when I have the chance and ask how the Silent Ones can be awakened." Li Yi felt that he had to change his mindset. He could not just rely on the medical cabin to support his silent parents. Now with his own abilities, he might be able to take the initiative to change something and try to cure the Silent Ones.

With this thought in mind, Li Yi turned off the lights, left the first floor, and took the elevator directly to the 30th floor.

After reaching the top floor.

Li Yi opened the door and entered the room. He looked down at the city's night view. It was obvious from the changes in the city's night view that the center of the old city was pitch black, and the darkness spread to the surroundings, and only stopped within a few kilometers of the building.

"Are places without lights dangerous? From what we can see here, the danger zone is really large. No wonder the Investigation Bureau was so eager to send Captain Zhang Lei to solve the supernatural incidents in the old city. Unfortunately, things didn't go smoothly."

Li Yi said in a low voice.

Then he looked back at the hanging spear he had placed in the room.

The illusory bronze spear has the power to kill evil spirits.

Can I use this weapon to solve the supernatural incidents in the old city? If I can, it should be a great achievement. Maybe I can use this achievement to ask the Investigation Bureau to help save my parents who have been silent for many years.

Li Yi thought about it, and finally withdrew his thoughts. He drank a glass of golden nutrient solution and prepared to wash up and start today's practice.

No matter when, practice and evolution cannot be interrupted. Li Yi holds a rare object in his hand. It would be a waste of God's gift if he wastes time practicing.

Just as he was walking towards the bathroom, Li Yi moved his ears slightly and heard some noise coming from inside.

"Who? Who is in the bathroom?" Li Yi suddenly stopped and asked.

"Li Yi, it's me, Zheng Lan. I ran errands for you so late today that I was sweating all over. I thought you hadn't come back yet, so I borrowed your room to take a shower and take a rest. Then I remembered that you have already moved in today. I'm really sorry. I'll pack up and go back."

A woman's voice was heard from inside, and then Zheng Lan came out wrapped in a bath towel, wiping her wet hair, with an embarrassed look on her face.

"I heard the noise just now and thought there was some danger at home. It turned out to be you, Zheng Lan. It's okay now." Li Yi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's so late, you'd better not go back. It's very dangerous outside. Just now when I passed by the old city, I encountered a supernatural incident and killed a monster. If you don't know, you would think I live in a dangerous area."

"Then nothing happened to you, right?" Zheng Lan asked with her eyes wide open.

"Fortunately, I ran fast and nothing happened." Li Yi said, "If the problems in the old city are not resolved, it will not be safe here sooner or later, unless we go to Anding District. But there are so many people in Tianchang City, how many people can afford to live in Anding District? Even if I add up my net worth, it is not enough to buy a house in Anding District."

He shook his head helplessly.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Zheng Lan, go and have a rest. I need to practice. Just call me if you need anything."

After saying that, Li Yi went into the bathroom, washed up briefly, and then found a quiet corner and sat down with his eyes closed.

With his hands holding a treasure seal, his expression is peaceful and he seems to be smiling, just like a bodhisattva descending to the world or a Buddha appearing.

As soon as the White Bone Contemplation technique was performed, the cosmic energy of the knife coin rushed into his body crazily.

really.

Practicing on Earth is faster than practicing in the four continents.

Of course, the prerequisite is that you have to have a rare item.

Because the cosmic energy on Earth is so abundant, but unfortunately it has been polluted. Only rare objects can purify the pollution and provide a steady supply of cosmic energy.

However, when the rare objects reach the four seas and eight continents, they are useless, because the cosmic energy of the four seas and eight continents is not polluted and does not need rare objects to purify it. Moreover, the rare objects themselves also require energy to maintain, so their role is not very big.

Since Li Yi's martial arts training has already reached the peak of bone training and he is currently training his marrow, his physical potential has been developed. Logically, his training speed should be faster, but now it has slowed down.

"I took the Resurrection Pill when I was in the Four Seas and Eight Continents, and my cultivation value was 550%. But now my cultivation value is estimated to be only 400%, a big drop. What's going on?" Li Yi frowned, realizing that something was wrong with his body.

No, it’s not the body that’s wrong, it’s the consciousness that’s wrong.

In Li Yi's consciousness, the little man sitting cross-legged on the lotus platform was much weaker than before, and his body was no longer solid. It seemed a little illusory, as if he was injured.

But when did you get injured?

It seems to be in a ghost street but I have no impression of it.

Li Yi couldn't remember, and didn't continue to think about it. Instead, he opened his eyes, stood up, and walked towards the collection room.

He searched around and took out a box of pills.

This is the resurrection pill.

It is made from the thousand-year-old coffin ganoderma, and can heal the injuries of the soul. After eating it, the practitioner can strengthen the soul and increase the value of practice. It is a very good elixir.

"Since the soul is injured, then heal the injury."

Li Yi took out two resurrection pills and swallowed them directly.

As soon as the pill entered his stomach, a breath rushed straight to the top of his head, nourishing his consciousness. As the medicinal breath rushed in, a light green breath was forced out of his body and spread into the air.

The light green aura seemed like the remnants of ghost fire, which was the main cause of the damage to the soul.

"not enough."

After Li Yi took two pills, he felt that his injuries had not recovered yet. He took two more pills, and then he felt that his soul injuries had completely recovered, and even better than before.

"This Resurrection Pill is truly a magical medicine for healing injuries to the soul. It works immediately after taking it, and you don't even need time to recuperate."

He breathed a sigh of relief and put the remaining ten resurrection pills back into the collection room.

This is a good thing, you have to use it sparingly, because you don’t know when you will be able to travel around the world next time.

Just as he was about to go back to practice, Zheng Lan's voice rang out: "Li Yi, you are so young and strong, and you still take medicine? It's over, it's over, I will definitely die in your hands today, forget it, come on, I'm ready."

"Huh? What have you prepared?" Li Yi looked at her suspiciously.

Zheng Lan blushed and said a little embarrassedly: "Of course I am ready to accompany you tonight. Didn't you ask me to stay?"

"You misunderstood. I'm not the kind of person you imagined." Li Yi said seriously, "You should rest early and don't delay my practice. Besides, I practice the view of white bones. Although your breasts are big and I admire them, they can't seduce me. I see beauty as white bones, without fear or desire, and my heart is like Buddha."

"Ah?" Zheng Lan was stunned.

Li Yi ignored him and returned to his previous position, holding the treasure seal in his hand and sitting cross-legged to practice.

This time, after using the Resurrection Pill to heal the injuries to his soul, his previous cultivation values ​​returned and even improved a little.

Six hundred percent!
Such training values ​​are astonishing, but Li Yi feels that he still has room for improvement. If his martial arts training reaches the level of practicing orifices, and he takes a few more soul-resurrecting pills, perhaps the value can be raised to 800%. By that time, he will be not far from being specially recruited by the Golden Academy.
