Chapter 1096 A Fierce Surge, Cultivation Soars Like an Airplane

However, Lu Li, who was listening attentively, was unaware that Senior Sister Bai Sha had already benefited from the lecture and shared this information with several of her close friends.

As the saying goes, one person tells ten, ten tell a hundred, and in just one morning, all the disciples of Martial God Mountain who were not in seclusion knew about the benefits of absorbing the primordial substances from Lu Li's body.

Some people were initially hesitant because of the preciousness of the Blood Crystal, but now that they know that Lu Li's primordial substance can improve not only their bloodline level, but also their bloodline purity, a group of people became excited.

After all, the so-called bloodline purity, simply put, is the innate talent of these secret bloodline warriors.

"As long as you suck on Junior Brother Lu Li vigorously, you can improve your aptitude!"

Before anyone knew when, a 'rumor' had spread, so much so that when Lu Li turned around after the morning class, he found a large group of people behind him.

"Fellow senior brothers and sisters, you all..."

Lu Li was already inwardly groaning. Normally, good business would be a good thing, but things were different from what he had planned. The demon god inside him wasn't doing any work.

If he could open the door to these secret blood warriors, it would be a risk-free and highly profitable business for Lu Li. However, if the demon god behind that door did not release any supplies, Lu Li would have his original power drained every time, which would be a truly unpleasant experience.

Looking at the fierce gazes of his senior brothers and sisters, even the battle-hardened Lu Li couldn't help but shudder.

Lu Li couldn't help but turn around to ask for help, hoping that his old friend who knew Martial God Mountain better than him could give him some advice. But as soon as he looked at the Valkyrie, she stood up, straightened her clothes, and only showed him her profile.

"You take care of yourself."

The Valkyrie left after saying a few words, and then Lu Li was swallowed up by the crowd.

…………

The days that followed were a mix of pain and joy for Lu Li.

The pain stemmed from the fact that he had become a celebrity on Mount Wushen, and walking down the street was like being seen by addicts.

To improve business efficiency, avoid a repeat of high-risk incidents like that of Senior Sister Lu Baisha, and prevent certain embarrassing situations from occurring, Lu Li updated his business model.

He adopted a fixed-quantity sales method to provide his own source material to his fellow disciples. Based on the profit ratio he had previously calculated from Senior Sister Lu Baisha, the amount of source material he provided was roughly five to one in exchange for Secret Blood Crystals.

Simply put, the amount of blood drained from him would be worth about the price of a single piece of Secret Blood Crystal.

Lu Li used to sell his essence every day, refining it into pure black matter, solidifying it like black metal, and selling it to his senior brothers and sisters.

Since not every senior brother or sister is so powerful, and many people don't have the financial resources, a dozen or so senior brothers and sisters are able to buy his source material every day.

But later Lu Li felt that he was working too hard. He would concentrate his essence at night, sell the goods in the morning, listen to lectures while smoking opium, and only in the afternoon could he replenish his energy.

If he continued at this pace, he wouldn't have time to improve himself, so he changed the sales frequency to once a week.

However, the true disciples of Martial God Mountain already know the benefits of absorbing his essence. Now his essence has become popular at the summit, so there are always people who are addicted to his essence who come to him in private to ask for more.

Even more outrageous ones tried to humiliate Lu Li with money. For example, there was a senior sister named Lu Qianqian, who was said to be the second senior sister among the true disciples. She was extremely arrogant and wanted to offer two pieces of secret blood crystals to buy Lu Li for one night.

Who is Lu Li? He has dignity too!

Want to eat at a buffet? There's no such thing as a free lunch. Is what Lu Li lacks right now Secret Blood Crystals? Does it even matter how many Secret Blood Crystals he has?
Finally, Senior Sister Lu Qianqian gave him three pieces of Secret Blood Crystal.

Well, that night was really hard to describe. All I can say is that the senior sisters of Wushen Mountain were ruthless. After I paid them, they treated me like a human being and tormented me all night.

The next day, Lu Li leaned against the wall as he went out and saw Lu Xueqing looking at him with a look of disdain, pity and complicated emotions as she passed by the door, which made Lu Li feel a little embarrassed.

He could only say with righteous indignation, "It's all for the sake of cultivation. It's so hard for someone like me who has no foundation in this world."

However, the Valkyrie only gave him a disdainful look, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated, but in the end she just turned around and ran towards the morning class location.

And so, Lu Li's life in the Martial God Mountain, filled with hardship and suffering, lasted for more than half a year. He experienced pain, but his joy was something that was difficult for outsiders to understand.

Firstly, he earned a large amount of Secret Blood Crystals by selling his own essence. Now he has a considerable fortune, so he plans to take some time to go into seclusion and refine all of these Secret Blood Crystals.

In addition, his perfect body has been brought to a higher level. Through the large amount of elixirs supplied by Martial God Mountain, he has been soaking in medicinal baths and has given his body new power.

However, he is currently stuck in the middle stage. His body looks much stronger than before. Although his muscles are bulging and he looks powerful, he also looks a bit bloated.

What puzzled Lu Liqi was that he saw that the Valkyrie had also practiced this method, so he had been waiting to see the Valkyrie turn into a muscular tyrant so he could laugh at her.

However, even though the other party also trained and used the medicinal bath from Martial God Mountain, the other party still didn't become a muscle giant, which puzzled Lu Li.

Moreover, he was certain that the Valkyrie hadn't failed to grasp the basics; she had also mastered the basics very quickly and her strength had increased. Even the Third Elder was amazed, but he just couldn't explain why she hadn't experienced any side effects.

Lu Li had humbly asked the Valkyrie how she did it, but she just glanced at him coldly and told him to ask his second senior sister that night.

Lu Li could only scratch his head, thinking to himself, "If I dared to go to my second senior sister's place, would I even be asking you? Besides, I've never heard of my second senior sister being able to achieve a perfect body cultivation without any side effects in the early stages."

He didn't know why, but after arriving at Mount Martial God, things were fine at first, but from the second day onwards, the Valkyrie's attitude towards him became very bad.

He was genuinely puzzled, thinking to himself, "We're old acquaintances from the same space who fought side by side. Now that we're the only two outsiders on Martial God Mountain, shouldn't we help each other out?"

In the end, he could only mutter to himself that girls are just stingy.

And so, after the New Year, Lu Li asked the Third Elder for leave and officially began his seclusion at his residence.

He already had enough Secret Blood Crystals, and if he didn't absorb them properly and just focused on doing business, he would be putting the cart before the horse.

To the senior brothers and sisters outside who were begging for his source, Lu Li could only tell them that sharpening the axe wouldn't delay the work of chopping wood, and that as his strength increased, he would have more source.

Everyone agreed that this made sense, and thus supported Lu Li's seclusion, expressing their support for him to become stronger.

Lu Li focused his mind and calmed himself in his residence, stuffing all the crystals of secret blood into the Origin Atomizer. The atomizer had a hidden compartment inside, big enough to hold a house, so there was no need to worry about its durability. After stuffing them all in, Lu Li, with a pipe in his mouth and his body soaking in the medicinal bath, was refining his body while puffing out clouds of smoke, and at the same time, the Martial Arts Furnace did not stop.

During this period, he also visited the Martial Arts Pavilion, also known as the Scripture Pavilion, where he selected many exquisite profound techniques to study and comprehend when he was bored in seclusion.

If the disciples of Martial God Mountain knew these thoughts, they would probably curse Lu Li as a beast, because Lu Li was multitasking and actually thought that these profound and difficult-to-understand skills were just something to look at casually.

However, the senior brothers and sisters who often followed Lu Li to the morning classes have now realized that Lu Li, this visitor from the space, is truly heaven-defying in terms of comprehension. It seems that there is no cultivation technique that Lu Li cannot comprehend.

And so, Lu Li's time at Martial God Mountain flew by, and in the blink of an eye, twenty years had passed.

On this day, Lu Li opened his eyes, his deep purple eyes gleaming with a sharp light. As he stood up and moved his body, a series of cracking sounds emanated from his bones.

As the sound traveled through his body, just as the receding tide smoothed out the sand, his previously swollen body calmed down, and he regained his strong and muscular physique, as if carved from marble by a god.

His perfect physique reached its peak on this day, his blood and qi surging endlessly, and the deduction sounds of the martial arts furnace also ceased at this moment. The Martial Arts Classic was clearly more profound than before.

Lu Li shook hands, feeling that he had really come to the right place, and then looked at his current attributes.

[Pioneer 008, your base stats are as follows (including equipment and title bonuses):]

Constitution: 308 points (+14)

Strength: 308 points (+14)

Agility: 308 points (+14)

Spirit: 308 points (+14)

Charisma: -81 points (-20)

Lucky: 8 o'clock

The changes in many attributes are enormous, representing a leap forward. To be able to improve at such a speed in the ninth-tier realm is simply like a dream.

However, the drop in his charm attribute puzzled Lu Li. After all, he had only gone into seclusion and hadn't done anything special. After thinking it over, he could only conclude that the Martial Mystic Blood was not a benevolent thing.

Just look at the Valkyrie; her charm attribute is extremely low. If she were to go out, she would probably scare a bunch of mortals from the Divine Martial Continent unconscious.

In Lu Li's opinion, the other person's demeanor was somewhat approachable, which might be the mutual appreciation between people from the same region.

On Mount Martial God, there are also some disciples who are similar to the female Martial God. Due to the enhancement of the Martial God's secret blood, their baleful aura becomes increasingly heavy, while their charm diminishes.

Strangely, not everyone possesses this trait; it seems to be determined by the purity of the martial artist's bloodline.

To use a scientific analogy, it's like some people have elements in their genes that make them have a strong, malevolent aura, while others don't.

For example, Senior Sister Lu Baisha has a very high charm attribute. She is not the kind of person who would scare people to death at first glance, but rather she is captivating and enchanting.

Lu Qianqian, the second senior sister of Martial God Mountain, is different. Her charm attribute is frighteningly low, even lower than that of the Valkyrie. However, putting aside her temperament, her appearance is still considered stunning.

Lu Li felt that he was not picky when absorbing Secret Blood Crystals, and he didn't know which elders refined them. Some Secret Blood Crystals refined by elders would not reduce his charm when he absorbed them, while the ones refined by elders would cause his charm to drop rapidly.

Looking at his own attributes, he has now increased his overall attributes by 14 points, which means he is already moving towards the mid-stage of the ninth rank. As for the first stage of his talent advancement quest, he completed it ten years ago.

Ten years later, when he tried to absorb the Secret Blood Crystals to improve himself, he found that the effect was much worse. This was not only because his own level had increased, but also because he discovered that the purity of the Secret Blood Crystals would affect the absorption effect of his original essence.

The quality of the Blood Crystals refined by these elders varied greatly. This had little impact on true disciples who only needed to use these Blood Crystals to increase their bloodline concentration level, but it was already somewhat insufficient for Lu Li.

What he craves now is a purer product. If he could get the Martial God Mountain Master to help him refine a batch of Secret Blood Crystals, tsk tsk...

However, Lu Li only thought about it. He knew it was impossible. What kind of person was the Lord of Martial God Mountain? How could he possibly have nothing better to do than help his disciples refine secret blood crystals?

In fact, during the half-year he lived on Mount Wushen, he only saw the mountain lord on the day he went up the mountain; he never saw the mountain lord come out at other times.

Other disciples said that the mountain lord only comes out to patrol the mountain once every few thousand years, which is actually considered diligent, because in terms of the mountain lord's realm, she is considered the most approachable powerhouse on the Divine Martial Continent.

It is said that the supreme figures of other sects will not appear in their sects at all, and will probably only show up when the sect faces a life-or-death crisis.

Therefore, it was wishful thinking for Lu Li to expect someone of that level to refine Secret Blood Crystals for him. However, he recently thought that after he came out of seclusion, he should try to find out if there were any purer ones.

Let's take a look at his new talent awakening mission.

[Talent Advancement Quest - Final Stage: The Path]

Task objective: During your stay in this world, increase your basic overall attributes to 320 points.

Mission Difficulty: Nightmare - Guaranteed Death
Mission Reward: Limiter removed and talent advanced upon return.

Failure penalty: Permanently disables the limiter and removes the talent's advanced path.

The new task is the final link, but the requirements are really demanding, which is quite difficult.

Lu Li had once fantasized about ascending to the peak of the ninth rank by consuming secret blood crystals, but reality was cruel. After only twenty years of seclusion, he realized that it was simply unrealistic.

Because depending on the purity of the bloodline of the creator of the Blood Crystal, it will become increasingly difficult for him to improve himself through this substance. Before long, he will find that ordinary Blood Crystals have no effect on him at all.

So don't be fooled by his current 308 points in overall attributes; the road ahead will be even more difficult.

However, Lu Li was not discouraged, since he still had a long time to stay in the Divine Martial Continent and could slowly think of a solution.

Furthermore, considering the issue of violators, he would need even greater strength to resolve it.
