Chapter 111: The Eldest Disciple’s Revenge
A few days later, Li Yufei brought back a beast tribe’s Golden Core path of cultivation from her master for Li Xiaojun.
To Li Xiaojun’s surprise, this technique was a version improved by the Human Race, making it more suitable for their cultivation.
Upon receiving the technique, Li Xiaojun immediately began to practice it.
He was delighted to discover that he could indeed cultivate this method.
Although Li Xiaojun currently had a cultivation level of the Tribulation stage, he had not practiced any technique before.
Previously, he had only practiced the spells from the three great magical arts of the Human Race.
Once Li Xiaojun started practicing this technique, he realized that his three years of research on the Golden Core path of cultivation allowed him to cultivate rapidly.
Before long, a Golden Core formed in his dantian.
Then, the Golden Core grew stronger until it reached the mid-Tribulation stage.
Through personally practicing the Golden Core path, Li Xiaojun understood that it was a more powerful technique than the primordial spirit method of the Human Race.
Similarly at the mid-Tribulation stage, a beast tribe member practicing the Golden Core path would undoubtedly be much stronger than a Human Race practitioner of the primordial spirit method.
If this technique did not take longer for the Human Race to cultivate than the primordial spirit method, Li Xiaojun believed that many from the Human Race would certainly choose to cultivate this method instead.
Moreover, the Golden Core path requires almost no requirements for spirit roots; any intelligent being has the chance to practice it.
However, the Human Race cultivates too slowly, which is why no one practiced this technique.
Additionally, cultivating this method is not only slow; for the Human Race, it also consumes cultivation resources dozens to hundreds of times more than the primordial spirit method.
If the Human Race were to adopt this technique, there would simply not be enough resources to sustain their consumption.
It is no wonder that the Golden Core path of cultivation was eliminated by the Human Race.
However, despite being discarded by the Human Race, this technique was extremely suitable for Li Xiaojun’s two apprentices.
Since both apprentices lacked spirit roots, they could not practice the primordial spirit method, so if they wanted to become Immortal in the future, they could only cultivate the Golden Core path.
As for the cultivation resources, whether it was hundreds or even thousands of times more, it was merely a light drizzle for Li Xiaojun.
The cultivation resources in his system space were sufficient for thousands of people to cultivate to become Immortal.
"Zishan, Li Ziqi, you will practice this technique from now on."
After finishing his own practice of the Golden Core path, Li Xiaojun handed the jade slip containing the technique to his two apprentices.
This Golden Core path of cultivation could allow practitioners to reach the Profound Immortal realm and was an exceptionally profound cultivation method.
"Thank you, Master."
"Thank you, Master."
Both little girls were overjoyed to receive the Golden Core path of cultivation. Their gratitude towards Li Xiaojun deepened even further.
…
In the calendar of the magic world.
In the blink of an eye, a decade had passed.
Under Li Xiaojun’s guidance and with the generous provision of various cultivation resources, Chen Zishan and Li Ziqi finally advanced to the Foundation Establishment stage.
In the magic world, she is already a second-level magician.
However, if Chen Zishan and Li Ziqi were to battle against magicians, Li Xiaojun believed they could easily overpower third-level magicians.
With the powerful Golden Core path of cultivation, their spiritual clothing, strong spiritual energy flying swords, and various protective magical treasures combined, even a fourth or fifth stage magician would find it difficult to kill Li Xiaojun’s two apprentices.
A decade later, Chen Zishan had grown into a 26-year-old young woman.
The younger Li Ziqi had become a 17-year-old beauty.
…
"Zishan, are you out buying groceries again?”
As Chen Zishan carried her shopping basket down the street, neighbors greeted her.
"Yes, Aunt Guli," Chen Zishan replied with a smile, greeting those who called out to her.
"Zishan, you’ve become even prettier, and you can even cook. Whoever marries you will have incredible fortune!" an aunt praised Chen Zishan.
"Aunt Hehua, you flatter me…"
"Zishan, you’re not young anymore; you should find someone to marry…"
"Uncle and Aunt, I can’t talk right now. I need to hurry home and prepare dinner for my master," Chen Zishan said, waving goodbye as she turned and walked quickly away.
An hour later.
A 17-year-old girl with a backpack arrived in the area.
The girl was tall and beautiful, dressed in luxurious clothing, but she carried a pink backpack and had her hair tied in a ponytail, giving her a very cute appearance.
“Li Ziqi, you’re out of school!”
Upon seeing the girl, an aunt greeted her.
"Yes, Aunt Guli," Li Ziqi replied with a smile and nodded.
Soon, many people greeted her, and she responded to each one with a smile.
Quickly, the girl returned to a courtyard.
“Master, Senior Sister, I’m back!” the girl called as she entered the yard and tossed her pink backpack onto the stone table with a thud.
“Now that you’re back, hurry up and wash your hands and get ready for dinner!”
A calm voice came from within the main room.
“Yes, Master,” the girl answered and hurried into the main room.
“How has school been lately? Have you bullied any classmates?” Li Xiaojun asked Li Ziqi.
Ten years ago, fearing his two apprentices would become socially awkward stuck by his side, Li Xiaojun sent them to a good school in the Holy Capital City to help shape their worldviews.
A few years ago, the Eldest Disciple, Chen Zishan, graduated successfully.
Li Ziqi, still under 18, needed a few more years to graduate.
“Master, I didn’t bully anyone; don’t misjudge me! They started it first! They’re all nobles who like to pick on me, a commoner! I was just forced to fight back!”
Li Ziqi playfully protested to Li Xiaojun.
“Hmph, I know you well. You definitely stirred them up secretly.”
“Alright, let’s eat.”
“Okay.”
After finishing dinner, Li Ziqi went to the stone table to do her homework.
Li Xiaojun leaned back in the rocking chair in the yard after he finished eating.
“Master!”
At that moment, Chen Zishan’s voice rang in Li Xiaojun’s ear.
“Speak.”
Li Xiaojun lazily replied, still lying in the rocking chair.
“Master, I want to get revenge for my parents…” Chen Zishan said, clenching her fists.
“Revenge?”
“Yes, when I was little, my parents were killed by a baron from the empire, so I want to kill that baron to avenge my parents,” Chen Zishan spoke with a face full of hatred.
“Tell me the details.”
“Okay.”
Chen Zishan nodded and began to recount what had happened to her.
“Twenty years ago, I was only 6 years old, and I had a happy family where my parents loved me dearly…”
Chen Zishan reminisced about her past with her parents, her face initially reflecting happiness.
But soon, sadness and hatred overtook her expression.
“My father knew some martial arts, so they were members of a mercenary group…
“One time, my father came home and said the mercenary group had done a job for a baron and earned a lot of money…”
“However, just two days later, my parents appeared anxious, talking quietly in a way that I overheard. I heard them say someone was watching them, and it was likely that the baron wanted to kill them to eliminate witnesses.”
“That night, I was drowsily asleep when my mother anxiously hid me in the cellar, instructing me not to come out or make a sound.
That night, I heard my parents’ screams…”
