Chapter 22 Pure Yang Sword Intent, the Potential Crisis of the Sacred Body
"This...this fierce bloodline aura, could it be...the Blood Fiend Python?"
Jiang Churan sniffed her delicate nose, her tone slightly surprised.
Her beautiful eyes widened, and she seemed uncertain at the end of her sentence.
"Junior sister, you must have seen wrong."
Wu Shaotian was stunned, his face turning ugly for a moment, before he retorted:
"The Blood Demon Python is a fourth-tier demon beast, comparable to a human Martial Grandmaster. How could its precious blood appear on my junior brother?"
Li Wudao ignored him.
He turned to look at the girl and said, "You guessed right, it is indeed the Blood Fiend Python, and it is at the level of a half-step demon king."
After saying that, he felt a strange unease.
Before this, he had no idea about fourth-tier demonic beasts. How did Jiang Churan find out?
Just by sniffing it, one can guess what it is; it's quite intriguing.
Could it be that the girl accidentally encountered a blood-fiend python being slaughtered?
"A half-step demon king?!"
Both of them were stunned for a moment.
"Junior brother, where did you obtain this item? Are you willing to trade? I can buy it at a high price."
A fiery glint flashed in Wu Shaotian's eyes as he asked three questions in a row.
Jiang Churan pursed her lips and remained silent.
The blood of a fourth-tier demon beast is precious enough, let alone that of a being that is about to become a demon king.
This level of precious blood is irresistible to almost any martial artist below the Martial King realm, making it an excellent material for tempering the physical body.
The bottle that Li Wudao gave her contained about two hundred catties of demon blood, worth at least two thousand low-grade spirit stones.
“It was given to me by my master. It’s not for sale; it was a special gift for her.”
Li Wudao shook his head, his words concise and to the point.
"In that case, then forget it."
Upon being rejected outright, Wu Shaotian's eyes flashed with anger, but he quickly calmed down, acting as if nothing had happened.
"This demon blood is indeed useful to me. You really want to give it to me?"
Jiang Churan hesitated, a slight excitement welling up inside her.
Using the blood of a fourth-tier demon beast to temper her body would undoubtedly be a good thing for her, as it would allow her to build a stronger foundation.
Most importantly, it might be able to activate the Azure Phoenix bloodline within the body as soon as possible, helping it to begin its recovery.
"of course."
Li Wudao nodded, agreeing very readily.
"Thank you, I owe you another favor."
Jiang Churan had mixed feelings, but she accepted the jade bottle.
By now, I owe them at least three favors.
She felt a little heavy-hearted, and at the same time, a little strange.
What's wrong with Li Wudao in this life? Why isn't he following the plot?
"Then I'll go first."
Li Wudao disliked the atmosphere and turned to leave.
"and many more."
Suddenly, Jiang Churan called out to him, took out a jade slip, and said:
"Here is a communication jade slip. Take it. If you encounter any difficulties, you can come to me. Or if you have any questions about cultivation, you can ask me."
The girl's tone was still somewhat indifferent, but her eyes were very sincere.
Li Wudao stopped, looked at the jade slip the girl handed him, and chose to accept it.
"Okay, if anyone bullies me, you have to beat them up for me."
The boy grinned, speaking casually.
Then, as if remembering something, he joked, "As for cultivation, there shouldn't be any problem. You can learn it at a glance, anyone with hands can do it. If you have any questions, you might as well ask me."
now,
Wu Shaotian, who had been standing by helplessly, could no longer hold back.
"Junior brother, are you serious? Junior sister Jiang is the most talented disciple in the sect's thousands of years of history. Even the sect master highly praises her."
At this point, he glanced at Li Wudao with a hint of disdain and continued:
"Even I am not qualified to instruct my junior sister at the same level, so where does your confidence come from, junior brother?"
His words were filled with contempt and disdain for Li Wudao.
Li Wudao secretly rolled his eyes.
This guy is really going to stick with me to the end; I really want to slap him to death with my shoe.
Where did the confidence come from?
Is it wrong to use cheats?
At that time,
Upon hearing this, Jiang Churan gave a strange look and inwardly grumbled.
I am the reincarnation of Empress Qingyao, okay?
Not to mention Sect Master Murong Yan, even the Supreme Elder of Xuantian Sect doesn't have the ability to guide her now.
What she lacks now is nothing more than cultivation resources and crucial opportunities.
Although Li Wudao has changed somewhat in this life, he is still not enough to warrant her attention.
Just take what I said earlier as a joke.
Seeing that Li Wudao remained silent,
Wu Shaotian mistakenly thought he had hit the nail on the head, a hint of superiority flashing in his eyes, and patted him on the shoulder earnestly.
"Junior brother, you have only been cultivating for a few days. You should know that the path of cultivation is long and tortuous, and cannot be accomplished overnight. You must learn to be low-key, otherwise it is easy to get into trouble."
"Junior brother, I have learned a lot."
Li Wudao gave a perfunctory reply and left without looking back.
This young sect leader is truly hypocritical; I can't be bothered to stay a moment longer.
All he ever said was to belittle him and elevate himself in order to win the favor of beautiful women and satisfy his vanity and competitiveness.
He had seen this kind of trick many times in his previous life; it was truly tasteless.
"I have other important matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."
Jiang Churan glanced at Wu Shaotian sideways, her tone indifferent.
Before he finished speaking, he had already left, giving the young sect leader no chance to react.
With her experience, how could she not see that the other party was after her?
In her past life, she never took a liking to Wu Shaotian, and she certainly wouldn't in this life either.
"Damn it!"
After the two left, Wu Shaotian angrily flung his sleeves, his face terribly gloomy.
Among the disciples of the sect, no one has ever dared to offend him.
However, just as Jiang Churan is today, so too is that frail boy from Misty Peak.
Even more so, they dared to contradict him repeatedly, making him look foolish in front of Jiang Churan several times, which is simply unforgivable!
He took out a piece of black jade and crushed it violently.
A moment later, an elderly man with white hair appeared, bowed, and said, "Young Sect Master."
"Third Uncle, could you please investigate that boy for me? I need to know everything about him!"
A cold glint flashed in Wu Shaotian's eyes.
"Yes, sir," the white-haired old man replied and disappeared.
Wu Shaotian didn't linger. After venting his emotions for a while, he returned to the main peak.
The disciples guarding the mountain gate quickly looked away, gazing up at the sky with unease, fearing they might incur the wrath of the sect.
.......
at the same time,
Li Wudao has returned to Misty Peak.
Completely unaware that the young sect leader had already become the target of their jealousy.
He went back inside to check the rebates.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, your investment has been successful. Investment project: 200 jin of blood from a peak fourth-tier demon beast.]
[Congratulations, host, for receiving special feedback: Pure Yang Sword Intent]
【Pure Yang Sword Intent: The exclusive sword intent of the Pure Yang Sacred Body, extremely pure and yang, fierce and powerful, with three times the sword power of ordinary sword intent, and five times stronger against evil spirits】
【Do you want to obtain it? 】
"Yes."
Li Wudao was pleasantly surprised; investing in Jiang Churan was indeed a sure-fire way to make money.
That name sounds impressive.
[The Pure Yang Sword Intent is merging...]
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully fused with the Pure Yang Sword Intent!]
After ten breaths,
Li Wudao felt an even larger and more intense energy surging within his body, and a hidden sword intent was brewing in his dantian, extremely sharp, as if it could leave his body at any moment.
At this moment, he felt that he had more perfect control over his sacred body, and his blood and qi were flowing smoothly.
Practicing swordsmanship in my current state will definitely yield twice the results with half the effort.
Thinking this, he took out the Dragon Abyss Sword, a reward from the system, and began practicing under the waterfall.
Without using his true essence, he simply thrust out his sword. The sword rang out, and a wisp of energy shot out from the tip, piercing through a section of bamboo in the bamboo forest from ten meters away.
"hiss....."
Li Wudao couldn't help but gasp.
With his current level of skill, he can release true energy with a casual sword strike, which is simply terrifying!
With this pure Yang sword intent, his combat power has at least tripled, and he is very confident that he is invincible among those of the same realm.
the next day,
The young man was all the same; every day, besides soaking in the blood of a demonic python to temper his body, he practiced various martial arts techniques to enhance his strength.
In his spare time, he would occupy Xia Gucheng's rattan chair, and his days were quite comfortable.
This continued for ten days.
That day, after finishing his training, Li Wudao lay on the rocking chair as usual, crossed his legs, and enjoyed a leisurely drink.
Suddenly, the cheap master who had disappeared for half a month reappeared before their eyes, as unpredictable as the northwest wind.
"Old man, where have you been these past few days? Your disciple has missed you terribly."
Li Wudao is blatantly lying.
As he spoke, he nimbly got off the rattan chair.
"Looks like you've been having a good time while your teacher was away."
Xia Gucheng snorted coldly, a clear light flashing in his seemingly cloudy eyes, as if he had seen through everything.
The next moment, the old man, like a ghost, left a trail of afterimages and stood in front of the boy.
Before Li Wudao could react, someone grabbed his shoulder and then turned his hand into a palm, as if he were feeling his bones.
After counting the interest,
Xia Gucheng released him and nodded leisurely: "Peak of the Blood Transformation Realm, initial awakening of the Pure Yang Sacred Body. It seems you have been cultivating these days. Not bad."
"Hehe, thank you for the compliment, Master..."
Li Wudao scratched his head, then his expression suddenly changed slightly. He stammered, "Master, you...you know I have the Pure Yang Holy Body?"
"You really think you can fool this old man with your little tricks?"
Xia Gucheng chuckled, took a swig of wine, and, looking slightly serious, said:
"However, it is right for you to have concerns. The Holy Body bloodline is special, especially since you possess a pure Yang body, which makes you a natural nemesis of evil spirits. If you are targeted by the demon race, they will certainly not let you go."
Li Wudao was stunned, swallowed hard, and turned pale.
He used up the demon python's blood on the fifth day. During this time, he often spent time in the library and learned a lot.
This continent is inhabited not only by humans, but also by other races such as demons and monsters, whose power is immense and should not be underestimated.
If one day a supreme being from either the demon or monster race learns of his existence, they will certainly spare no effort to eliminate him.
The Xuantian Sect is a first-class sect in the Eastern Wilderness, but it is very small when compared to the vast and boundless continent.
If things really come to that point one day, would a sect really risk being wiped out and do everything in its power to protect itself?
Li Wudao sighed inwardly, this was neither logical nor human.
"You don't need to worry too much. The Eastern Wilderness is still quite safe. The demon and monster races haven't appeared on a large scale for five thousand years. Now they only occasionally operate in remote areas and pose little threat."
Xia Gucheng saw the boy's worry and said confidently, "Even if the demon and monster races target you in the future, it doesn't matter. This old man can still protect you well, so don't worry."
Li Wudao nodded, his mood easing somewhat.
With a Martial Emperor protecting him and the system's help, his chances of survival are very high.
In fact, in the future, he might even stand out from the crowd, overshadowing both the demon and monster races, and become a supreme powerhouse.
"Alright, stop looking so gloomy."
Xia Gucheng lay back in the rattan chair and said seriously, "What level of the Gengjin Sword Manual have you reached? Show this old man what you've done. If you haven't perfected the second level, see how I deal with you!"
