Chapter 201 Lively
"Could it be a newly transformed Void cultivator?"
Questions arose.
"In our world, I am the only Void Cultivator."
The ripple response was referred to as "Black Light".
"So...you really are a newcomer?"
"Nine times out of ten."
"Old Nine, Old Black, it's a good thing that new people have arrived, isn't it?"
At this moment, the ripples that started with the initial cry of "boredom" began to spread.
"probably."
The person known as "Old Nine" responded vaguely.
"It's a good thing for us, but for him, disaster has begun."
Blacklight responded in the same calm, almost wooden tone.
"The tide of nothingness."
At this moment, Lao Jiu also sighed: "Another world is about to be swallowed up."
"Crash!"
Just then, a violent shock came from not far away, the ripples spreading as if they were about to form waves, with great force and rolling in.
Like a giant hand gathering the tides.
"It's a celestial orbit!"
A voice, tinged with shock and anger, suddenly emanated from the direction of the person who had shouted "Boring!"
Immediately afterward, he quickly warned Li Xian: "Quick! Newcomer, retreat! This madman, he's trying to capture the coordinates of your world!"
Mr. Li could not understand the communication between these people.
However, this contact was not what he had imagined.
He had thought it would be some kind of trial ground or secret realm, where all the geniuses would fight to the death and shine together.
Right now, it's impossible for people to even meet face-to-face.
Pointless.
At that moment, he also severed his perception of this "Mirror Lake World" and withdrew his thoughts and consciousness.
……
"How was it? Did you encounter any of the many prodigies who came relying on the Void Spirit?"
As soon as he returned, Lingxu couldn't wait to ask, "I remember that the master once sat there discussing the Dao and subduing one prodigy after another. If you go there, with your talent, you will surely shine and stand out."
"Discussing the Dao?"
Li shook his head.
He has no use for the theories of the Void Dao.
and……
There didn't seem to be many people there.
Of course, it's also possible that many people are keeping it to themselves and are unwilling to show their faces.
"It makes no sense."
He replied.
"Ok?"
This indifferent attitude left Lingxu puzzled.
Could it be that he was discouraged after witnessing the work of a top genius?
Indeed, despite Li Xian's exceptional talent, he has cultivated for less than thirty years.
Even if other geniuses only have a fraction of his talent, they can still surpass him after cultivating for four thousand years.
What a rich heritage!
Thinking it over, it didn't want to press him further and hurt his pride.
For the next month, Li Xian focused on cultivating the Great Luo Limitless Sword Qi and preparing for breaking through to the True Fire of the Sun Realm.
During this time, upon learning of his return to Lijiang City, not only did Zhong Lingxiu, the head of Shenglong Pavilion, come, but also Guangyuan Sword Saint, the Palace Master of Taixu Sword Palace, Nangong Zhaoyue, who had previously invested in him, and even the current royal family sent the retired emperor to pay him a personal visit.
While Zhou Juechen's knowledge of Li Xian was still limited to the fact that he had established his Dao foundation, these people knew that this person was a renowned true disciple of the sect.
Moreover, he is a powerful and promising disciple.
Although he was only at the fifth realm, his combat power was so high that he could easily kill someone at the sixth realm!
Given time, forging an immortal golden elixir and advancing to the Dao Child ranks will not be an unrealistic dream!
Therefore, even though Li Xian did not show up under the pretext of seclusion, they were still waiting at Longquan Gate.
We eagerly await the arrival of Zhou Qing's full moon celebration.
……
The Zhou family of Lijiang was a prominent clan in the area, and with Zhou Juechen, a master of innate cultivation, presiding over the Longquan Sect, the celebration of their son's one-month birthday was naturally quite a big deal.
However, compared to the past, the scale of this event is many times greater.
On the day the full moon actually arrived, the street in front of Longquan Gate was completely blocked.
Luxury carriages worth hundreds of taels of silver, important figures whose mere stomp could shake the city of Lijiang, and renowned martial arts masters from all over the country flocked to the scene upon hearing the news.
Even the head of a sect like the Canglang Sword Sect, who had cultivated true qi, and even a high-ranking local official like the prefect of Lijiang City, were not qualified to enter the inner courtyard. They were simply arranged to sit at a table in the outer courtyard.
Those who can enter the inner courtyard are either grandmasters of their field, members of the current royal family, or direct relatives of the Zhou family.
Everything, all because of a single sentence from Mr. Li…
Too many people will scare the children.
……
At this moment, during the banquet, Zhou Juechen and his wife were holding Zhou Qing, accompanying Li Xian.
"This bracelet is for the little one to wear."
Li Xian took out a bluish-white bracelet that resembled jade but wasn't.
He didn't explain much.
However, when Zhou Qing's mother took the bracelet, she not only felt that it was as light as a feather, but when she helped her son put the bracelet on, it actually shrank a little on its own, fitting perfectly to his fair and delicate wrist.
"This……"
Immediately, her face was filled with surprise.
"The size is like a wish-fulfilling object... With this characteristic, it is at least a magic weapon. However, this treasure has more than just the characteristic of being able to be sized like a wish-fulfilling object, so it is at least a high-grade magic weapon."
Nangong Zhaoyue immediately recognized it.
Even if it's just a top-grade magic weapon, it's worth tens of thousands of merit points.
A single Innate Pill only requires six thousand units of cultivation.
"What does it mean to be born with a silver spoon in your mouth?"
Wei Hua, who was stationed in the Wei family and oversaw this land, looked on with envy.
Today, the Great Zhou Dynasty has long been conquered by the Great Wei Dynasty.
Wei Hua, a master who has forged his Dao foundation, usually oversees a large gold mine at the border between the two countries, which produces 50,000 taels of pure gold annually.
However, most of the gold mine profits had to be given to the true heirs behind the Wei family. He was not qualified to use magic weapons and only had a top-notch magic artifact to maintain appearances.
In terms of value, his top-tier magical artifact is probably not even as valuable as that child's bracelet.
After Li finished presenting the gifts, Wei Jiadaoji also stepped forward.
He appointed Zhou Juechen as the King of Lijiang, to be the eternal guardian of the Lijiang River.
"This……"
The Zhou family was naturally delighted to hear of this investiture.
Although Zhou Juechen had become a grandmaster and was renowned in the martial arts world, with no one daring to underestimate him, he did not have any official status to speak of.
Zhou Juechen, however, was somewhat alarmed and couldn't help but turn his gaze to Li Xian.
Li Xian glanced at Wei Hua...
Wei Jiadao quickly explained, "This is just a small token of our Wei family's appreciation; we have absolutely no intention of overstepping our bounds."
"Trespassing?"
These two words sent a jolt through many people.
This term is often used to describe an offense made by a subordinate to a superior.
Wei Hua's investiture of Zhou Juechen as king was actually an act of usurpation?
Nangong Zhaoyue, however, understood Wei Hua's meaning.
Li Xian and Zhou Juechen acted as equals, yet the Wei family bestowed titles upon Zhou Juechen. Did they think they were above Li Xian in status?
Without explaining the previous sentence, Li Xian could even use this as a pretext to launch an attack on Wei Ming and directly seize the Great Zhou.
Fortunately, Mr. Li didn't mind such trivial matters.
Since Zhou Juechen plans to marry and have children in the mortal realm and no longer intends to venture out into the world, he will stay in charge of the Li River and be crowned the King of the Li River...
Yeah.
He nodded and said, "Since the Wei family is so kind, you may accept it."
"Thank you."
Zhou Juechen nodded solemnly.
The title of king of a different surname in the Great Wei Dynasty is not so easy to bestow. Even as a Xiantian (a high-level cultivator), he was not qualified. This was entirely due to Li Xian's influence.
"I have a few more little gadgets here; you can share them with the little guys later."
Li Xian took out seven more jade pendants from his person.
These jade pendants are not rare treasures, but they all contain a breath of life and magical power that he infused into them.
Through the subtle influence of magic, the seven children were able to grow up healthily and lay a solid foundation in martial arts.
As for whether they will be able to cultivate true qi before the age of thirty, cross the Dragon Gate, and reach the Great Luo Immortal Sect...
It all depends on how hard they try.
Finally, he added, "If Zhou Qing is willing to pursue the path of martial arts in the future... I will reserve a place for him to stay on my True Inheritance Peak."
"True Inheritance Peak!?"
Upon hearing this, Zhong Lingxiu, Nangong Zhaoyue, and the others were filled with envy.
Even Wei Hua couldn't help but glance at Zhou Qing again.
Although Li Xian did not promise to take him as a disciple, once he was on the True Inheritance Peak, as long as his performance was not too bad, this relationship would be very close.
"it is good!"
Zhou Juechen said excitedly, "I will teach him well. At least, before he reaches the True Qi Realm, I will never let him cause you any trouble."
"It doesn't matter."
Li Xian said, then glanced at the others at the table: "Let's take the little guy out and show him off."
"it is good."
Zhou Juechen nodded.
Li Xian then turned his gaze to Wei Hua and the others.
Wei Hua spoke up immediately: "If Master Li Zhen is interested in the Great Zhou Dynasty..."
"Need not."
Li Xian understood what he meant and waved his hand.
He had no intention of making the Great Zhou a vassal state.
Then, he turned his gaze to Zhong Lingxiu: "Sect Leader Zhong, the affairs of the Rising Dragon Pavilion are busy, but you must also take care of your health."
Zhong Lingxiu does look much older than she did six years ago, but...
"I have failed Senior Brother Li's expectations, and I am truly ashamed to face him."
She said, full of remorse.
When Li Xiancheng had not long since established his Dao foundation, he had given her a Heavenly Gate Enlightenment Pill, but alas...
She lacked the necessary foundation to break through the Heavenly Gate and establish the basis of her Dao.
"If you're willing, I can also reserve a spot for you on True Transmission Peak. The cultivation environment there is quite good, and I think it will be of great help to your next attempt to break through to the Heavenly Gate."
Li Xiandao.
"True Inheritance Peak!?"
Zhong Lingxiu took a deep breath, quite tempted, but after hesitating for a moment, she said, "I won't bother Senior Brother Li anymore. I'll see if I can find some good cultivation seeds for Senior Brother Li and Senior Sister Nangong."
"it is good."
Li Xian did not insist. For Li Xian now, giving Zhong Lingxiu another Heavenly Enlightenment Pill was nothing.
but……
He has already repaid Zhong Lingxiu's favor.
The matter is now settled.
He wouldn't offer it unless Zhong Lingxiu asked.
At this moment, Zhong Lingxiu seemed to have thought of something and said, "Originally, I also thought of persuading Sect Leader Zhou to go to the Great Luo Immortal Sect, but Sect Leader Zhou felt that his talent would be useless there. He simply poured all his resources into his disciple Hongyu, who also stood out in last year's Dragon Gate Leap and went to Jumang Peak..."
"Ruby?"
Li Xian also had some impression of her.
He nodded slightly.
"In addition, in the last Dragon Gate Leap competition, since the only requirement was to search for the Dragon Gate Token, there were quite a few participants, including a Marrow Cleansing Martial Master named Li Hanbing... Although participation was the main focus, her perseverance was quite good, so I kept her on and put her to work in the Rising Dragon Pavilion..."
Zhong Lingxiu paused at this point.
"Li Hanbing".
Mr. Li had no recollection of this name.
After a while, he suddenly realized something and couldn't help but be surprised: "A Marrow Cleansing Martial Master?"
"Correct."
Zhong Lingxiu nodded: "I've investigated. Senior Sister Jiang Xiaoyu asked someone to bring her some resources, which did help improve her cultivation. Unfortunately, she's getting older, so there's no hope of her reaching the next level. In the future, her highest achievement will probably be to reach the level of 'Refining Emptiness into True Reality' and cultivate true qi."
"Jiang Xiaoyu".
These names are already very distant to Li Xian.
But for Zhong Lingxiu, who was in charge of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it was a name that could be heard as loud as thunder.
After a moment's thought, Li Xian said, "Let her continue working at the Rising Dragon Pavilion."
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the True Qi Realm was practically equivalent to a sect leader-level expert.
It's easy to create a martial arts family.
In addition, there's the background of the Rising Dragon Pavilion...
There's nothing more he needs to do.
However, although Li Xian thought he had settled his karmic ties with Li Xian, but...
He then took out a piece of refined gold and handed it to Zhong Lingxiu: "I don't have any Innate Pills on me. If she cultivates true qi, I'll trouble you to get her one. Since it will take a lot of time, the extra one is your fee for your trouble."
Fine gold!
This is a piece of refined gold worth 100,000 merit points, which can be exchanged for a Heavenly Enlightenment Pill!
Even if Li Hanbing has to wait another ten years to cultivate true qi, there are still plenty of Dao Foundation Elders who would agree to exchange ten years for a piece of refined gold without taking any risks.
"Senior Brother Li, I..."
"Take it."
Li Xiandao.
Seeing this, Zhong Lingxiu was ultimately unwilling to completely give up her hope of breaking through to the Dao Foundation stage, and blushed as she accepted the gift: "I... I am ashamed to accept it."
Nangong Zhaoyue and Wei Hua, who were standing nearby, watched this scene with extreme envy in their eyes.
Zhong Lingxiu only invested a few Blood Nourishing Pills in Li Zhenchuan back then, and he even paid for them. Now, how many times has the return multiplied?
Especially Nangong Zhaoyue...
Although she was also a member of the Nangong family, the Heavenly Enlightenment Pill, which required 100,000 merits, was still unimaginable.
Good thing...
Senior Sister Nangong has already mastered True Essence, so her future income will surely increase. If she becomes wealthy in the future, it's not impossible for her to be given a pill to help her break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.
After exchanging a few words with everyone, and with Zhou Juechen returning and the banquet over, Li Xian took his leave.
Zhou Juechen understood this as well.
Someone like Li Xian, who has already become a true dragon in the heavens, naturally cannot stay in the mortal world of the Li River for long.
Being allowed to stay at Longquan Gate for a month is already a huge favor to him.
At that moment, he said solemnly, "I believe that there is a wider world waiting for you outside, but as long as you come back, Longquan Gate will always have a place for you to stay."
"it is good."
Li Xian smiled and replied, "Goodbye."
"treasure."
Zhou Juechen cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.
Li Xian also returned the greeting.
After saying this, he leaped up, transformed into a stream of light, and disappeared into the azure sky.
As Zhou Juechen watched Li Xian leave, he was filled with mixed emotions.
Those who once roamed the martial world together and participated in the Dragon Gate Tournament, are now parting ways...
That would truly mean an eternal separation between the mortal and immortal realms.
……
Above the sky, Li Xian rode his sword and traversed the heavens.
Although the Great Zhou was his first stop in this world, he knew very well that he would not stay anywhere.
This……
This is probably the last time he'll come back.
"The Undying Dao Body is complete... I'll go back to the sect to get the materials needed to cultivate the fifth level of the Great Luo Limitless Sword Qi, and then... it's time to ignite the True Fire of the Sun."
Li first adjusted the direction, and his sword speed increased dramatically.
Compared to the time wasted traveling by celestial boat before, the now-great Li Xian returned to his sect from the former territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty in just one day.
The Great Luo Immortal Sect is filled with ethereal, otherworldly energy.
Although its vast territory and scattered population meant it was not as prosperous as Dengxian City, the number one city of independent cultivators in the world, its environment, scenery, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth were far superior to any other place he had ever seen.
After entering the sect, he went directly to the Inner Affairs Hall.
Disciples of the Great Luo Immortal Sect must go through the Inner Affairs Hall to accept missions and exchange supplies; the hall is bustling with activity.
However, most of those coming and going were outer sect elders or inner sect elders; core elders were extremely rare.
As soon as Li Xianyi stepped into the hall, dressed in the robes of a true disciple, he quickly attracted the attention of many people.
"It's Li Xian!"
"Oh, so that's the true disciple who challenged Yi Daozi? He really has a lot of nerve."
"I originally thought that the sect wanted to use Yi Daozi to hone this person, but Yi Xiaoru, the true disciple, denied this. Thinking about it carefully, it is indeed impossible. Yi Daozi is a person who is about to undergo tribulation and become an immortal. If it weren't for the imminent opening of the Immortal Realm, he would have already entered the Immortal Realm and become another great power of our Great Luo Immortal Sect!"
A murmur of discussion arose from the crowd.
But no one dared to be so foolish as to come and provoke them.
After all, Li Xian's record of killing one sixth-realm expert after another was real, far beyond what these elders could afford to provoke.
Even the staff of the Inner Affairs Department dared not neglect their duties, and soon an elder came out to greet them.
Ignoring the gossip, Li Xian handed the elder a list of resources for cultivating the fifth level of the Great Luo Limitless Sword Qi.
Within the sect headquarters, the exchange of various resources proceeded extremely smoothly.
Within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, all the supplies were delivered.
After packing his things, Li Xian left the Inner Affairs Hall and prepared to return to True Transmission Peak.
But at that moment, two figures walked side by side and arrived through the air.
One of them...
It was none other than Shen Zangxing!
"Why is this Master Shen here? Oh no, something bad is about to happen!"
"The one next to him... is that Lei Gang, the second-ranked disciple?! He actually came!?"
“Lei Gang… It is said that Yi Daozi enlightened him twice and saved his life once. He is Yi Daozi’s most loyal follower!”
Upon their arrival, many elders let out suppressed gasps of surprise.
As they discussed this, Li Xian's gaze also fell on Shen Zangxing.
However, I only glanced at it before moving away.
This person doesn't even dare to leave the gates of the Great Luo Immortal Sect right now, and he can't be bothered to pay attention to him.
At this moment, a burly man accompanying him asked, "A new true disciple? He looks unfamiliar."
"Senior Brother Lei Gang has forgotten that the most famous disciple among our Great Luo Immortal Sect's true disciples recently is that newcomer who has only been promoted for a few years."
"Li Xian?"
The burly man known as Lei Gang was taken aback, then his gaze suddenly sharpened: "You're the one who's courting death, daring to provoke Senior Brother Yi!?"
He stepped forward, blocking Li Xian's path, his eyes flashing with lightning: "What kind of person is Senior Brother Yi? He not only has to cultivate diligently and contemplate the tribulation, but also cares about the overall situation of our Immortal Sect and takes care of many disciples and personal instructors. Just because Senior Brother Yi stopped you from killing your fellow disciples, you dared to challenge him and make a big fuss about it. Who do you think you are?! It's only because Senior Brother Yi is merciful that he doesn't bother with you. If it were me, if I had dared to speak so arrogantly, I would have slapped you to death!"
"???"
Li Xian looked at Lei Gang with a question mark in his eyes.
After a moment, he glanced at Shen Zangxing, who seemed to have deliberately arrived at the Inner Affairs Hall at this time, and Lei Gang, who had immediately provoked him upon meeting, and clearly understood something. In the end…
He uttered two words.
"madness."
"Ah!"
Lei Gang wasn't angry at all. Instead, he sneered, "Who is the fool is a matter of opinion. Justice resides in the hearts of the people. I was just doing what a junior brother who has benefited from Senior Brother Yi should do!"
After listening, Li Xian understood what he meant.
"So, you know you're being used by Shen Zangxing?"
"Use? I just had to keep these thoughts to myself!"
Lei Gang coldly looked at Li Xian: "Look at you these past few years. You've only been at the Foundation Establishment stage for a short time, and first you killed your fellow disciples, then you went on a killing spree in the Falling Star Sea, and not long ago you even caused trouble for the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty. Do you think you're so great? In the end, when things really got out of hand, didn't Senior Brother Yi have to clean up the mess for you?"
He hissed, "Don't cause trouble for Senior Brother Yi!"
"I can't understand your thoughts, and I don't want to."
Li Xian looked at him and said calmly, "Although I feel that going to the dueling arena is too risky and won't allow you to fully enjoy yourself, if you're really unhappy, why not go to the dueling arena and have a match?"
"Go up to the dueling ring?"
Lei Gang remained unmoved, not even angered by this attitude: "You are arrogant! But you should be glad that you are only at the fifth realm! I have always kept Senior Brother Yi's teachings in mind, so as a fellow disciple, I cannot bully the weak. When you reach the sixth realm, I will challenge you to a duel and give you a good lesson so that you will understand how ridiculous your idea of making up for the difference in cultivation level with your talent is."
"Six Realms?"
Li Xian looked at him and said, "Once I reach the sixth realm, you won't have a chance."
"Hahahaha!"
Lei Gang laughed loudly, pointing at Shen Zangxing: "Do you know why this piece of trash you call himself would choose to bring me here so I could provoke you?"
His laughter abruptly stopped: "Because I'm better than him!"
The word "waste" made Shen Zangxing's lips twitch.
But he seemed to have reached the limit of his skills, only able to spread rumors, and dared not utter a word more at this moment.
"Oh?"
Upon hearing this, Li Xian became intrigued.
Each realm has different levels, and Shen Zangxing, as a prodigy who possesses the Sun Dao Body and has mastered the supreme Rainbow Transformation Technique, can be considered the peak of the sixth realm.
The next three tiers are those comparable to a seventh-realm demon king, those capable of slaying a seventh-realm demon king, and those on par with a seventh-realm golden core cultivator.
Lei Gang was so confident...
"You can rival a Golden Core cultivator?"
"..."
Lei Gang's suddenly tense expression stiffened slightly.
After a moment, he narrowed his eyes slightly: "You'll understand when you reach the sixth realm!"
"Then it's settled!"
Li Xian immediately clapped his hands: "Sixth Realm, is that right? I'll go break through right now."
