Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

"Fellow Daoist Luochuan, this is really unnecessary."

Helian Ba ​​shook his head and said, "Back then, the Spirit Heaven Holy Land was at its zenith, exhausting all its sect's strength and wasting countless resources, yet it still failed to cultivate that ancient holy body. What could we possibly do?"

He had absolutely no hope!

"Elder Luochuan's appreciation for talent is also for the sake of the Dao Palace,"

Changsun Xu smoothed things over, then looked at the many peak masters and said, "Everyone, please feel free to share your thoughts."

He barely looked at Li Lan anymore; he did this entirely to give Luo Chuan face.

"I wonder if the Five Elements Qi Transformation Method would be useful? This method is specifically designed for certain constitutions and is extremely balanced..."

"Why not use the power of elixirs to assist it? With sufficient resources, there should be some effect."

"If all else fails, why not try the path of body cultivation? This path relies less on spiritual energy and can lead to some success in the future."

Everyone spoke up, offering numerous suggestions and advice.

However, Luo Chuan couldn't help but shake his head. These methods seemed feasible, but he had already tried them all in a short period of time... and none of them worked.

"I do have a solution,"

At this moment, a chubby man with a flushed face stepped forward, smiled, and said, "Elder Luo Chuan, have you ever heard of a legend about the Primordial Emperor Star?"

Luo Chuan said, "Elder Fan, please speak."

"The reason why the renowned Battle Demon God of the Primordial Emperor Star was able to cultivate an indestructible body was because he was once locked in the Eight Trigrams Furnace by Laozi, one of the Three Pure Ones, and refined for forty-nine days!"

When Elder Fan spoke, Luo Chuan's eyes lit up immediately, and he asked, "What does Elder Fan mean?"

"If you don't break, you won't stand!"

Elder Fan smiled, looked at Li Lan, and said, "I will use the earth veins of Tianhuo Peak to construct the Eight Trigrams Furnace Fire, and then use various precious medicines as supplements, imitating the Supreme Lord Laozi of that time, to refine Li Lan. Perhaps there is still a chance!"

"However, this method is dangerous, with only a 20-30% chance of success. If one is not careful, it may cause some damage to Li Lan."

After listening, Elder Luochuan frowned slightly and began to ponder.

It is indeed a viable path, but if it fails, there will only be one outcome for Li Lan...

death!

"This method is excellent,"

At this moment, Helian Ba ​​spoke calmly: "My Dao Palace does not support idlers. Either break free from the cocoon and become a butterfly, embarking on the path of the Great Dao, or turn into ashes. It is good that the world has one less mediocre and incompetent person."

He glanced at Luo Chuan indifferently.

Changsun Xu also smiled and said, "Your Majesty, in my opinion, Li Lan is a talented and beautiful man. It would be a pity to give him up like this. He probably doesn't want to live a life of depression. This is better for him."

Luo Chuan still hesitated, but seeing this, Li Lan stepped forward and said, "Thank you all, elders. Now that Elder Fan has a solution, I am willing to give it a try."

He could see that Helian Baming said it, and Changsun Xu implied that they both felt Li Lan was no longer worthy of this status and that staying on Tiandao Peak would be a complete waste!

Li Lan didn't want to put Luo Chuan in a difficult position.

Luo Chuan looked at Li Lan, and after a long while, finally sighed and said, "So be it!"

"Elder Fan, since that's the case, I'll leave Li Lan to you!"

Upon seeing this, Elder Fan's eyes flashed with a look of wild joy, but it vanished in an instant!

……

The matter has been agreed upon.

"Tianhuo Peak was originally one of the important main peaks of the Dao Palace, but hundreds of years ago, the peak master led his disciples out to explore, and none of them returned. Since then, Tianhuo Peak has declined."

Before leaving, Luo Chuan recounted the history of Tianhuo Peak to Li Lan, saying, "Because there are many fire veins on the peak, it was given to Elder Fan Yuzhi. He is the number one alchemist in the Dao Hall and is very proficient in this art. His method is indeed worth a try... but the success rate is definitely not as high as he said, three or four percent!"

"If you feel it's not right, just give up. The Great Dao is vast, and there are already enough corpses on this path. In reality, mortals also have their own way of living. We cultivators have lives of thousands of years, which seems long, but in the face of the boundless river of time, what difference is there between us and cicadas that don't know spring and autumn?"

Li Lan nodded: "Thank you, Elder!"

Li Lan indeed greatly admired Luo Chuan. He kept his promise and gave up the elixir, and he was also very open-minded about cultivation. He was a rare open-minded and upright person.

Li Lan said, "This junior does have a real request."

"You mean Zhou Xiang, right?" Luo Chuan asked.

Li Lan nodded: "I, Li Lan, should bear the honor and disgrace myself, but I feel ashamed if it affects others."

Luo Chuan sighed deeply and said, "Do you know why I have such a high regard for you?"

"It's not just because of your divine physique that allows me to fulfill Chisongzi's last wish of great cultivation, but more importantly, because you are different from ordinary people."

"You were just a beggar before, yet you did not break yourself. Later, you soared to the sky and stood tall among the clouds, yet you remained calm and composed. Such character and such demeanor are the likes of which I have never seen before in my life!"

"Moreover, you are a person who values ​​relationships, which is even more rare in the treacherous world of cultivation."

"What a pity, what a pity!"

He was filled with regret, then promised, "Although Zhou Xiang's aptitude is somewhat lacking, he is very diligent. I will take him as my disciple, so you can rest assured. As for his future achievements, that depends on his own karma."

Li Lan bowed slightly and said, "Thank you for your care during this time, senior. I will repay you in the future!"

After saying that, Li Lan turned around and prepared to leave the mountain!

"Li Lan!"

As they walked out of the peak gate, Zhou Xiang caught up from behind, carrying a bundle in his hand. He handed it to Li Lan and said:

“You left in such a hurry that you forgot everything. You should have taken your usual clothes with you. I’ve packed everything for you.”

"If anything goes wrong after you get there, be sure to tell me..."

A glint of tears welled up in his eyes:

"Thank you!"

Li Lan smiled slightly, took the bundle, and knew that in addition to the neatly folded clothes, there were also many spirit stones, pills, and other items inside.

The items weren't particularly valuable; they included mid-grade spirit stones he had recently obtained from Heavenly Dao Peak, some low-grade spirit stones, and even some spirit sand. It was clear that he had given Li Lan all the savings he had accumulated over the years.

But it wasn't explicitly stated.

He was also worried that Li Lan's physical status had been compromised, and he would no longer be able to enjoy the same resources within the Dao Palace. That's why he did this.

That shows they put their heart into it.

"Brother Zhou, follow Elder Luo Chuan and cultivate diligently. One day, we will return to Earth hand in hand!"

Li Lan smiled, then turned and left with a carefree air!

"Li Lan, you must survive! You can do it! I'll wait for you, we'll go back to Earth together!"

Zhou Xiang looked at his back and spoke loudly.

After a long while, Luo Chuan landed behind him and sighed softly, "Let's go."

……

"Are you sure you can refine a minor divine pill using his blood?"

At this moment, in a secret hall, Helian Ba ​​and Changsun Xu stood calmly, while Fan Yuzhi bowed and said:

"Indeed, although the ancient divine body cannot cultivate, the divine substances contained in its blood are quite wonderful and are the key to refining the Lesser Divine Pill!"

Changsun Xu nodded and said, "Make sure it's done cleanly. Don't let Elder Luochuan have any grudges because of such a small, useless person."

Helian Ba ​​snorted coldly from the side:

"Fellow Daoist Luochuan, you only received a few small favors from that Chisongzi in the past, but you have almost forgotten the foundation of our Dao Palace. You have confused the camps and will bring great disaster upon yourself sooner or later!"

……

"Xuewei, something terrible has happened..."

At this moment, atop a certain mountain peak.

Zeng Rou rushed over, her face beaming with joy, and said:

"Did you know? Li Lan has a health problem!"

……
