Chapter 519: Late-stage Bosa

In the stone city of the Xun Wind Desert, six figures emerged in a line.

Tan Tiandi walked at the front, his expression shifting between light and dark. He coldly said, “We need to find that kid. He took all the benefits from the Yuan Chen Heavenly Mansion, including a very important treasure.”

“Hey, you hurriedly called me here for this? I thought we were going to make a fortune, but it turns out we’re here to go to battle?” The speaker had a towering physique like an iron tower, making the others beside him look like infants.

“What? Don’t you want to meet the powerful priest of the Jin Tian Sect? I heard he had a confrontation with Xiang Chitian, and forced the shadow body to self-destruct!” Tan Tiandi moved swiftly, his coat flapping as he advanced.

“Is that true? Xiang Chitian’s dark thoughts shadow body is no weakling.” The iron tower cultivator appeared surprised, just as someone beside him said, “No one knows how strong Xiang Chitian really is. That guy named Li Yingjun left the cave early; he must be looking for a place to recuperate.”

“Tie Hu, Jin Kui, Qingtian, Wujie, I have a feeling that this kid is deeply connected to us, so we must find him quickly,” Tan Tiandi said, his brows slightly furrowed. Whenever he calculated the other party, a layer of mist concealed the truth, a situation that was quite rare.

“Hmph! He’s my test stone!” Jian Wujie’s face turned dark. Previously, he had tracked the other party in the cave, but the kid moved exceptionally fast, and after several turns, he lost track of him. Now, with the kid having left the cave so long beforehand, he wondered if he could find him again, and Tan Tiandi didn’t seem too confident about it either.

“I will personally slay this kid!” Dai Qingtian thought of the embarrassment he had faced and couldn’t bear to think about how he would face people if this got back to the Guishui Continent. He felt a fury that could drown the seas.

Lin Qingtian didn’t care much, but he wanted to collect the bounty offered by the Nine-Mystic Continent. Maybe he could also visit those tantalizing cities there, and the thought made him feel warm all over.

The six of them continued their search, and their direction was indeed correct…

Meanwhile, Li Hui, after enduring rigorous training, finally arrived at an important moment in his advancement. As he ascended, the calamity of forgetfulness struck again, and the demonic heart took the opportunity to cause chaos.

At this moment, the silver snake Legal form in his Dantian grew to the size of a walnut. It wobbled slightly, and its body immediately emanated powerful momentum, succeeding in eliminating a layer of calamity power with a powerful bang.

Simultaneously, the thirty-two Dao-enriching Heavenly Bottles found in the Yuan Chen Heavenly Mansion shattered, releasing the Qi of Taiqing and instantly extinguishing the accumulation of the demonic heart while solidifying the Dao foundation.

Li Hui thought, “What a great opportunity! Old Li searched for so many years and couldn’t find a technique to refine the Qi of Taiqing. He could only use the Dai Character Stele to differentiate between the profound qi and the Taiqing and Tai Zhuo. The only chance to refine the Qi of Taiqing is in these Dao-enriching Heavenly Bottles.”

The clear qi surged. Each time a bottle shattered, it allowed for the refinement of the Taiqing qi. Old Li said in his message that he could only find six bottles with great difficulty, but now, seizing this opportunity, he possessed the full set! He wondered what changes would occur after refining all thirty-two layers.

“Eighteen, nineteen, twenty…” As Li Hui absorbed the Qi of Taiqing to solidify his foundation, he felt his body grow lighter. The first time he cultivated the Qi of Taiqing, it felt like he was dissipating in the wind. Now, as he pushed higher and higher, he felt as light as a formless entity and believed he could enter the Azure Sky without issue, and the silver snake Legal form began to grow rapidly with the washes of energy.

“Thirty-two? No, including my own layer, the Qi of Taiqing has already been elevated to thirty-three layers, as if I were in the thirty-three heavens, and my breathing turned into fetal breath.”

“Lifespan… my lifespan has increased significantly! No wonder Old Li lived so long, reaching the limit lifespan of the Late Wanxiang Stage, and that was still at the seventh heaven.”

“My meridians have expanded thirty-two times, but why do the acupoints feel reminiscent of the small heavenly cave? It seems capable of accommodating boundless Taiqing qi!”

Li Hui experienced the benefits of his advancement and quickly stabilized his footing, having reached the peak of late-stage Bosa. However, an intense feeling of depth emerged within him, and he exclaimed in shock, “To advance and soar in the future, I must continuously elevate Mount Tai, allowing its peak to enter the Azure Sky to withstand tribulations; this is the only way to take further steps beyond the hundred-foot mast. Old Li never mentioned this.”

“Boom…” As Yang Jiuzhen transformed into her Dao body, her cultivation rapidly raised a level. However, she had not yet cultivated the Legal form, and her Dantian remained chaotic and unawakened, with various images shifting in and out. During this encounter, new forms emerged, including pangolins, gold-devouring beasts, earth dragons, and sea conchs, all appearing and disappearing in an instant, as if a colossal figure were descending.

“Wow, Brother Xiao Hui, I did it! I really condensed my Dao body, and I instantly entered late-stage Bosa!”

“Congratulations!” Li Hui nodded with a smile, then said, “Wait, Brother Xiao Hui, what’s going on? Am I small? No, that’s not right…”

“Hahaha!” Yang Jiuzhen laughed heartily, comparing their heights and said, “Calling you Brother Xiao Hui is already a big favor! You actually rejuvenated; how about calling you Brother Xiao Hui instead?”

Li Hui shook his sleeve, revealing a hand to examine closely, and then touched his face, saying, “It’s not rejuvenation; it’s just that I’ve shed a lot of impurities without realizing it. In a few days, I’ll return to normal. I’m not sure if it’s influenced by you or if I’ve filled some gaps in my cultivation through this training, making my body more attuned to the Dao and acquiring some Dao body characteristics.”

“Is that so? Congratulations on your advancement, Senior Brother.” Yang Jiuzhen clasped her hands in respect.

“Same to you!” Li Hui suddenly said, “While advancement is a good thing, if you want to be lazy, just pretend to be in late-stage Bosa when you return to the sect. With that spirit treasure Round Mirror, you should be able to manage.”

“Ah! Your eyes are truly sharp; you can even tell I like to be lazy. Fine, let’s do that; I won’t tell anyone. I’ll be lazy at the sect for ten years! When the time comes, if I advance to Wanxiang, I might be able to be lazy for another twenty or thirty years.” Yang Jiuzhen sighed, “Alas! There’s always unfinished business at the sect. Master always says that with greater power comes greater responsibility, and I don’t like fighting and killing. I just want to taste all the delicious food in the world!”

“Great! I’ll take you to enjoy Great Summer delicacies.” Li Hui shook his head secretly, “But when the sect needs you, you’ll still step up. They say character determines destiny; this fate’s shackles are not so easily broken!”

“Are you being so nice to me? Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go!” Yang Jiuzhen laughed brightly, her voice like silver bells as she darted toward the ground. In the blink of an eye, Li Hui left the cave. As for Wu Zhao’s birth date, it had been inscribed on a peach talisman and buried in a specific location over twenty days ago.

The two of them crossed vast mountain ranges and soon found a bustling city, right as the lights were starting to come on.

Li Hui released his spiritual sense to scout the taverns everywhere, smacking his lips and saying, “Both of us are people who appreciate beautiful clothing and good food. Ordinary dishes won’t satisfy our appetites. To eat well, we need to find spiritual chefs, ideally late-stage Bosa chefs.”

“Does it require a lot of money? I saved up a thousand high-grade Miao Jade, but I spent it all on the way to the Wutu Continent at various islands,” Yang Jiuzhen said shyly.

“No problem, let me see what I have in my pocket?” Li Hui reached into the Kunpeng Decree, only to be stunned.
