PFC Chapter 67 True Dragon Perfection
Chapter 67 True Dragon Perfection
The night was still and the air was still. The night at Yingchun Tower was wonderful and delightful, with the Milky Way trembling and spring waters surging.
Until the next morning.
Li Lan woke up from her sleep, but the person beside her had disappeared, leaving only a lingering fragrance.
He opened his eyes. Last night felt like a dream, so beautiful and wonderful. Although the beauty had already left, he couldn't help but reminisce about it.
"The Spiritual Body is indeed a wondrous body no less than the Yin Body..."
He couldn't help but sigh.
Most importantly, during this process, all the spiritual matter contained in Shangguan Xiaoxiao's spiritual body throughout her life was absorbed by him!
At this moment, Li Lan's spirituality experienced another surge!
When he broke through to the fifth level of True Dragon Technique, his spirituality was only 15, but now it is as high as 6!
In other words, Shangguan Xiaoxiao gave him 4 spiritual points, which is equivalent to XX jin of Qingyun Fruit.
From this perspective, Shangguan Xiaoxiao has indeed paid back the eighty catties of spiritual items she owed him... She really is an honest businesswoman!
With so much spiritual energy, Li Lan felt he could break through to around the seventh level of Qi Refining.
While he was overjoyed, he couldn't help but sigh. Such an opportunity as Shangguan Xiaoxiao's was rare and hard to come by. He would need a large number of spiritual items to break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining.
But where can one find it in such a short time?
Now, it seems that we can only place our hopes on Li Xueer and Li Huan.
Hopefully they can prepare more Spirit-Breaking Pills...
"Brother Li, the night is too short and the sun is high in the sky, don't you want to get out of bed?"
At that moment, a voice drifted over softly.
Li Lan smiled and said, "Since Brother Zhu is here, why pretend to be a gentleman behind closed doors?"
The door was pushed open, and a person walked into the room—it was none other than Zhu Xianchou!
"Miss Shangguan has fallen deeply in love with you; such good fortune is truly the envy of others."
Zhu Xianchou smiled slightly and said, "If you meet again in the Immortal Realm someday, perhaps you and she can have a predestined relationship."
Li Lan said, "With the demon army pressing in, whether we can survive is another matter entirely. What hope do we have for the immortal realm?"
"When did Brother Zhu arrive?"
In fact, given Li Lan's current level of understanding, he had already figured it out long ago: Zhu Xianchou had come once last night and then again this morning. However, Li Lan did not alert him.
Li Lan was not afraid of anything Zhu Xianchou wanted to do!
With his Qi Refining Level 5 cultivation, unless the experts from the Immortal Realm came, even a martial arts grandmaster from the Abyss Realm would only face certain death in front of him.
Zhu Xianchou said, "Brother Li, rest assured, I have no voyeuristic tendencies. I did not witness your intimate moments with Shangguan Xiaoxiao. However, when I came this morning, I saw her disguised as she left. Before leaving, she seemed unsteady on her feet, her legs trembling, and she needed Fairy Xueyue's support. So I guessed that someone must have been unkind and harshly criticizing her. Hahaha!"
He teased Li Lan, and Li Lan smiled.
"Brother Li, let's get down to business. I've come to deliver something to you."
Zhu Xianchou said seriously, "A gift has been left for you in the next room. This gift was obtained from Li Guan. You can go and see it later."
Upon hearing this, Li Lan couldn't help but become curious.
“There’s one more thing,”
Zhu Xianchou said, "According to my ancestors' records, when the Demon Realm launches a large-scale invasion, the Immortal Realm often uses a sacrificial burning method to fight back. This method is extremely dangerous. Brother Li, please remember not to get involved, or you will surely be shattered to pieces!"
"Once this matter is settled, those people from the Immortal Realm will reopen the passage back to the Immortal Realm. If Brother Li can return with his clan, that would be good. If not, I also have a way to take you to the Immortal Realm."
"Brother Li, I shall take my leave now!"
Zhu Xianchou poured a cup of wine onto the table, drank it all in one gulp, and then drifted away.
Li Lan got dressed and stood up. Instead of chasing after him, she turned and went into the next room.
Inside the room, there were several large jade boxes. When Li Lan opened them, he was surprised to find that they were filled with all sorts of spiritual items!
Qingyun fruit, white bone flower, blood spirit mushroom...
"Part of it was brought by the Northern Hu delegation when they came to Beijing, and the other part was mostly the savings accumulated by Li Guan over the years!"
Li Lan's expression was slightly complicated.
After Li Yue ascended the throne, he searched the palace and Jinyang Palace, but did not find many spiritual objects. Those things must have been hidden by Li Guan in a top-secret place.
The only person they could find was Zhu Xianchou, who had followed Li Guan for many years.
However, Li Lan never expected that Zhu Xianchou would send him so much!
Even though he initially tried to win over Zhu Xianchou out of a desire to exploit him, he couldn't help but feel slightly moved now. After all, so many spiritual items were truly a generous gift!
Zhu Xianchou's address of "fellow Daoist" was by no means a mere formality.
With so many spiritual items, he can break through to even more realms!
Li Lan closed the door, opened all the boxes, then sat cross-legged in the middle and began to circulate the True Dragon Technique.
A faint dragon shadow seemed to entwine around him, and a massive amount of spiritual energy from the boxes of spiritual objects surged toward him, turning his body into a vortex.
My spirituality is growing exponentially!
……
"The demonic army is getting closer and closer!"
On the walls of Kyoto, Elder Gu gazed into the distance, a glint of light flashing in his eyes. He could see the dark sky thousands of miles away, and the faintly approaching black mist.
"The demon realm's attack this time is far more powerful than before; it seems that countless demonic souls have been resurrected..."
Beside him, Feng Moping of the Sword Sect sighed softly, "They... still want to return."
"They are no longer who they are, and they must never return!"
Elder Gu spoke in a deep voice!
Feng Moping nodded: "The sacrificial array will take some time. I'll take some people out to try and stop it."
Elder Gu: "Fellow Daoist, be careful!"
……
Inside the palace.
"When this method is activated, you must all be of one mind, respect Li Yue, and gather the strength of everyone. At that time, the power of the celestial realm will also assist you."
A celestial cultivator is instructing Li Yue and many other martial arts geniuses.
Everyone listened very attentively.
"Sis, what's wrong?"
Lin Ruobing sat next to Lin Ruoxue. She knew her sister too well, so she easily saw through the worry and anxiety hidden beneath Lin Ruoxue's calm face.
Is the formation dangerous?
"The formation itself is not dangerous; you are the one in danger."
Lin Ruoxue sighed softly, "I thought you would be kept by the Sun Moon Sect, but I didn't expect you weren't chosen by them. Ruobing, you... gave yourself to Li Lan?"
She finally asked the question.
Lin Ruobing's face immediately turned red, and she said, "What nonsense are you talking about?!"
A hint of anger flashed in Lin Ruoxue's eyes as she said, "He... really deserves to die!"
At that moment, a genuine thought of killing crossed her mind.
Lin Ruobing possessed the Taiyin Body, and should have had an unimaginable future. Joining the Sun Moon Sect would have given her the potential to become a saintess, with the prospect of achieving immortality. But now…
If she loses Yuanzhen, she will miss out on so much!
"sister……"
Lin Ruobing hurriedly replied, "It was my own choice."
Lin Ruoxue sighed helplessly and said, "When the formation is activated, don't stray too far from me. I'll find a way to save you..."
Lin Ruobing said, "Then brother-in-law..."
"Ruo Bing!"
Lin Ruoxue stared at her, but Lin Ruobing did not avoid her sister's gaze and said, "If... if brother-in-law dies, I... I don't want to live either!"
Lin Ruoxue saw an unprecedented determination in her sister's eyes.
A complex mix of emotions flashed through her mind. After a long silence, she finally asked, "Is he worth doing this for?"
Lin Ruobing nodded: "He deserves it!"
"This is a one-time exception; there will be no next time!"
Lin Ruoxue turned her head away, no longer looking at Lin Ruobing.
Upon hearing this, Lin Ruobing was overjoyed and exclaimed, "Sister, I knew you were the best!!!"
"I hope you didn't choose the wrong person."
Lin Ruoxue simply sighed.
She originally had little impression of Li Lan, but now she felt a bit disgusted. However, since Ruobing had already chosen him, Lin Ruoxue could only respect that decision.
For his sister's sake, he should lend a hand.
……
"That damn Li Lan, is he really that useless?"
On the other side, Li Huan was speechless after hearing Li Xue'er's description!
That was a Spirit Breaking Pill, a pill that even late-stage Qi Refining cultivators coveted, yet Li Lan had no effect after taking it.
"I only have two left here, these are the ones I used when I was building my foundation..."
His boss was very unwilling.
But there's no other way now; to survive, I have no choice but to give it to Li Lan.
Li Xue'er took the last two Spirit Breaking Pills and went to find Li Lan.
Meanwhile, in the shadows.
"Even the Spirit Breaking Pill couldn't help him succeed in Qi Refining?"
Li Daoling listened silently to the conversation between Li Xue'er and Li Huan, and he felt somewhat melancholy.
His ancestor Li Qinghong was so brilliant and respected among his contemporaries, yet his descendants are so lowly and despicable.
The Immortal Realm is not a place of warmth, but a cruel path. What can a useless person like Li Lan achieve by returning to his family?
At that time, it might needlessly provoke a struggle within the family, so why bother? Is it really the right thing to insist on welcoming back the descendants of my ancestor Li Qinghong?
Li Qinghong made great contributions to the entire Li family, but that is history... The interests of the family are perhaps the most important thing now.
He couldn't help but hesitate and start to rethink things!
